Stahding in line at the Richard
E. Coke Building will continue
to be an Aggie tradition — but
there is relief in sight.
There are plans to install
automatic teller machines under
the walkway between the Memo
rial Student Center and Rudder
Tower which may reduce lines
at Texas A&M University’s fiscal
offices at Coke.
The Coke Building was built
in the early 1950s when only
10,000 students attended Texas
A&M. Now Texas A&M has
more than 36,000 students, and
the lines at the Coke Building
also have grown.
However, Robert Smith, Uni
versity controller of accounts,
said there are no plans to ex
pand either staff or space to
handle the long lines that de
velop on paydays or rush
periods, such as registration.
Students who want to cash
checks for more than $25 must
cash their checks at the Coke
building or at Rudder Tower.
However, the planned auto
matic tellers may be a solution.
Smith said the contract to install
the machines is being written by
the University and will be pre
sented to area banks soon. The
machines will be installed when
the contract is finalized.

Regents gave Texas A&M Presi-

. . . Relief could be in
sight for students who
cash checks at the Coke
building when automat
ic teller machines are
installed under the
walkway between the
Memorial Student Cen
ter and Rudder Tower.
Smith said.
But the
won’t help the large numbers dependent

dent Dr. Frank E. Vandiver the
authority to negotiate a contract
for the machines. The machines
will be part of the MPACT or
Pulse automatic teller machine
networks, since most students,
faculty and staff use institutions
that are part of those networks,
Smith says.
“The line over there may be
twice as long as the line over
here (at the Coke building),”
says.
On paydays and at busy
of t he semester, such as rey
tion, cashiers’ windows areoji
from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m.
Smith said that thesewereii
most efficient changes siii
neither the Coke building
Rudder Tower had room
more cashiers to ease the cm
during peak hours.
