5AC has new chairman, plans membership drive
By ANN DUFFY
Battalion Reporter
rhe MSG Black Awareness Committee now has a
an, the first big step toward reorganizing for
: f980-81 school year.
rhe MSC Council approved the selection of Allen
y Milton for chairman of BAG last Wednesday.
‘The response has been good already,” Milton
d. “Several people have come by the MSC and
/en their names showing an interest in BAG.”
sara Morse, MSC Council vice president of prog-
ns, has been working to get the committee back on
its feet following the resignation last August of its
chairman, Reggie Trammel.
Morse works as a coordinator between the MSC
Council and the programming committee of the
MSC Directorate.
In the past, chairmen for BAG have been chosen
through an interview. Applicants are usually from
within the committee, but this year’s applicants were
recruited from outside the committee because BAG
had no interested members.
First on the agenda for the committee is a mem
bership drive to recruit students interested in prom
oting black awareness in the Bryan-College Station
community. BAG faculty advisor Dr. Huey Perry,
assistant professor of political science, is working
with Morse to organize the drive.
A barbecue on Sunday, Oct. 26, will allow those
interested in BAG to meet and exchange ideas for
upcoming events.
The MSC Council voted Sept. 15 to allocate $300
to BAG for the barbecue in support of its member
ship drive. The funds will come from the directorate
reserve so that students will not be charged, Morse
said.
‘The money from the directorate reserve is used
for unplanned programs deemed worthy for the func
tioning of the committee,” Morse said.”
Brenda Stubblefield, chairman of BAG last Fall,
said she became disillusioned with the committee.
“We were spinning our wheels,” Stubblefield
said. “A lack of funds and lack of interest disillusioned
most of the members.
BAG was organized in the summer of 1970, with
the three-fold purpose of providing a means for stu
dents, faculty and staff to learn about and share the
black experience; serving the black student popula
tion in academic, social and cultural areas and serv
ing as a liaison between the black community in the
Bryan-College Station area and Texas A&M Univer
sity, Morse said.
The organization is open to students of any race,
but the programs are primarily geared toward black
interests and those who seek more knowledge of the
black culture.
Sonia Ellis, assistant director of school relations, is
interested in promoting BAC and recruiting “top-
notch, top quality” students.
