Miller speaks to the Off-Campus Aggies.
Staff photo by Lynn Blanco
Texas A&M University has not
discriminated against women in rela
tion to admittance to the Fightin’
Texas Aggie Band because “no bona
fide applications have been made”
by a woman desiring to be in the
band, said University President Jar
vis Miller.
Miller spoke on topics ranging
from women in the band to parking
and shuttle bus problems at a meet
ing of the Off-Campus Aggies Mon
day night.
In a question-and answer-session,
Miller was asked about the pending
court case against the University in
which a female cadet claims she was
denied entry into the Aggie Band.
Miller explained that no female
cadet has ever checked the box on
advance registration and housing in
formation indicating she desired
admission to the band.
In the most recent development,
the University received a letter from
the U.S. Justice Department on
Dec. 12 asking detailed questions
about women in the Corps of Cadets,
Miller said.
“It was very clear from the ques
tions that [the attorneys] didn’t
understand the situation,” Miller
said. The Justice Department has
joined Melanie Zentgraf in the case
against the University.
When a student questioned Miller
about solutions to the campus park
ing problem, the president named
four parking lots with planned ex
pansion. Lot 50 near Zachry will be
expanded and a new parking lot will
be built near Kyle Field during the
spring and summer. The lot across
from Rudder Tower and Lot 7 near
Halbouty will be elevated, doubling
their capacity within a year to 18
months.
