survey of 1,200 to 1,400 dorm resi
dents last semester.
The survey was conducted by the
RHA and the marketing depart
ment.
Results of the survey showed 67
percent in favor of lowering weekday
visitation to 10 a.m., 62 percent fa
voring visitation until 11 p. m., and
64 percent wanting 24-hour
weekend visitation.
The first part of the proposal rec
ommends that visitation be allowed
to start at 10 a. m. instead of the cur
rent time of noon.
Secondly, dorms could vote to ex
tend visitation until 11 p.m. week-
nights instead of 10 p.m.
The proposal also recommends al
lowing 24-hour visitation on the
weekends.
Weekend hours now extend from
10 a.m. until 1:30 a.m.
“The proposal suggests what stu
dents want,” Thompson said.
If the proposal is passed, it does
not guarantee that a residence hall
will automatically follow the policy.
It will make the new visitation hours
possible for the dorms that want it.
“Each Dorm Council would vote
to determine visitation hours for its
dorm,” Thompson said.
The proposal has been turned in to
Basse’s office. His staff will look it
over, add suggestions, then give it to
him, he said.
Sasse will also look over the propo
sal and add comments before giving
it to Ron Blatchley.
“My staff has a hectic last three
weeks of school,” Sasse said. “I don’t
know when they will begin looking
over the proposal.”
After being reviewed by the Stu
dent Affairs Office, the proposal will
go to John Koldus, vice-president for
Student Services, then to President
Jarvis E. Miller, and the Board of
Regents.
“I don’t know what weight the
proposal will have on the administra
tion,” Thompson said. “It is possible
that only one or two parts of the pro
posal will be approved.”

fwo
concrete canoeing
I By RICHARD OLIVER
Battalion Staff
Take heart. Aggies. At least one
H from your University won
mething over the weekend. The
ixas A&M American Society of
ivil Engineers is now the national
Hipion in men’s concrete canoe.
Hg-
He men’s team of Bruce Carr and
:ott Holman, racing against 40
impetitors, won the competition,
;ld in Manhattan, Kan., going
H. In the meantime, they shaved
ree seconds off the national record
B a winning time of two minutes
id 14 seconds.
Hie ASCE won second place
rer ll with 33 points, behind the
niversity of Kansas, which had 43.
Btesides the men’s team, the Ag
es were paced by a second place
lowing by the faculty team of Dr.
oward Furr and Professor Mike
iggins.
Tom Hooper, vice-president of
SUE, was disappointed with the
jrformance.
“It was a real shame that we didn’t
in the team championship,” he
id. We were disappointed be-
iuse we clearly would have won the
hole thing except that we were
tiled for two disqualifications, both
pnst the eventual winners, the
ML LOUT
THEATER
University of Kansas.”
The disqualifications occurred
when an Aggie canoe bumped Uni
versity of Kansas canoes from behind
while making 180-degree turns.
Hooper said the disqualifications
were fairly called, and the infractions;
automatically allow the team which
was intefered with to advance to the
next round, and thus receive more
points.
“Those infractions may well have
been the turning point,” said
Hooper. “In both races that we were
called for inteference in the men’s
competition, we ended up really
smashing the University of Kansas
team.”
Hooper said each race was 1000
feet long, and consisted of two 500-
foot stretches with a 180-degree turn
at the midpoint.
“Another thing that really hin
dered us was the fact that although
we had the fastest canoes in the com
petition, they were the longest,
which really caused problems at the
turn. At times, we were almost dead
still trying to turn them around.’
Hooper is optimistic about next
year.
“We’re looking forward to next
year to sweep,” he said. “There will
be a lot of testing to be done, and
we ll be back to win it all.”
