The Student Activities Office
Monday will sponsor the fourth
annual women’s leadership con
ference for students in Rudder
Tower. This year’s theme is
“Women in Transition.’’
Tricia Barber, the Student Acti
vities Office adviser who orga
nized the conference, said that
theme was chosen because the
majority of women on campus are
here for a career and they experi
ence a kind of transition.
“They go from their homes to
the academic campus to their
career fields, and that’s the transi
tion,” she said.
Between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. the
conference will feature speakers
and panelists discussing career en
hancement for professional
women as well as the male view
point of professional women. Uni
versity professionals and people
from outside the campus area will
speak.
Futurist John Hoyle, an educa
tional administration professor,
will open the conference with his
predictions for women’s lifestyles
in the coming years, Barber said.
Dr. Candida Lutes, interim
assistant dean in the College of
Liberal Arts, will discuss asser
tiveness for women, and Kerry
Hope, a counseling psychologist
in the Personal Counseling Ser
vice, will discuss stress manage
ment.
Following a luncheon in the
MSC with entertainment by the
Women’s Chorus, a panel will dis
cuss women in professional roles.
Panelists include: Colleen Batch
elor, senior staff attorney in the
chancellor’s office; Judy Ryclick,
president of the Chamber of Com
merce; Pat Howard, a graduate
student and former executive di
rector of the Near East-South Asia
Council of Overseas Schools; and
former student Randi Mayes, a
management consultant for a
Houston firm.
Round table discussions will in
clude the following speakers and
topics: Dr. Fran Kimbrough,
counselor in the Academic Coun
seling Center — career choices
and goals for women; registered
nurse Jane Sielken — women in
the health care field; and Donald
Albrecht and Cary Wilkins of the
Student Activities Office — the
man’s view of professional
women.
A $7 fee covering cost of mate
rials and lunch is payable upon
registration in the Student Activi
ties Office, 221 MSC. Registration
is limited to 50 women.
Association of University Women.
A panel of four University rep
resentatives will then react to

academic world. Panelists in
clude: Dr. Charles Hix, dean of
agriculture; Dr. Greta Frixell,
associate professor of oceano
graphy; Dr. Vivian Paul, associate
professor of environmental de
sign; and Brad Smith, student

The program will also feature a
panel of four University men dis
cussing their support for women
— students, wives and colleagues
— in academics.
Women’s Network Spring
Forum
“Women in Academics: Posi
tive Role Models” is the theme of
the spring forum to be presented
Thursday by the Women’s Net
work at Texas A&M.
A keynote address by Dr. Emi
ly Taylor of Washington, D.C.,
will be followed by panel discus
sions of women’s issues relating to
the academic environment.
Taylor is director of the Office
of Women in Higher Education of
the American Council on Educa

of the National Association of

Dr. Terry Anderson, assistant
professor of history; Dr. Marcel
Elissalde, animal research phy
siologist for the U.S. Dept, of
Agriculture; Dr. William Muse,
dean of the College of Business
Administration; and Dr. Clinton
Phillips, dean of faculties, will sit
in on this panel.
Dr. Elizabeth Cowan, assistant
to the Texas A&M president, said
the program is designed for men
and women, students and admi
nistrators. “There will be some
thing applicable to everyone,’she
said.
Cowan serves as a contact per
son for the Women’s Network, a
program begun this year for pro
fessional women in all parts of the
Texas A&M System. The net
work, organized through the Uni
versity president’s office, serves as
a communication link between
women working in different areas
of the System, as well as between
those women and other System
administrators.
The program will be in Rudder
Tower from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
New women's group tries
to address problems
By JANE G. BRUST
Battalion Staff
There’s a brand new organization at Texas A&M
University and it’s unique — unique in that it’s an
organization of women, for women.
Within the last month, the Women’s Student
Organization was formed and has received Universi
ty recognition. Thus, the group is eligible for book
store funds and can reserve campus rooms for meet
ings.
Suzan Bruce, 19, is the student responsible for
organizing the group and is its president. The sopho
more history major from Beaumont said the organi
zation was her idea.
“One-third of the student body are women and
there is no women’s group that addresses women’s
problems — no one brings them up,” Bruce said.
Bruce said the group would like to serve as a
support group for women on campus.
“We’d like to bring in speakers and films on topics
such as rape awareness,” she said. “We’re just begin
ning, so we re open to suggestions and ideas.”
Dr. Carolyn Adair, director of student activities,
said several students formed a similar University-
recognized group two years ago this spring.
“There apparently was not much leadership be
cause the group did not re-register the following
fall,” she said.

Bruce said the new group organized before spring
break and 25 women attended the first meeting.
“These women are motivated and they want to
work,” she said. “There is a lot of support from the
administration and faculty.”
Dr. Elizabeth Merritt, associate professor of
sociology, and Dr. Terry Anderson, assistant profes
sor of history, are the faculty advisers for the group,
Anderson said he would like to help women
understand their changing roles in society. “I’d like
to help women in their careers,” he said. “Filly
percent of the freshman class is female and we don t
have an organization for women.”
