Norwood said the long-range planning committee is in the process of analyzing what the council has done this year, and has appointed several subcom mittees to deal with specific problems. The committee es tablished criteria for problems to be addressed and deter mined the most pressing prob lems facing the council. Each subcommittee will study a problem and formulate ques tions that must be addressed to solve that problem, Norwood said. Each subcommittee will then make recommendations to the committee as a whole. Several vice-presidents re ported on the success of pro grams presented by the MSC Council.

Sf-Mbred since no definite plans nal. i! [) een made. We said the idea for the class, or himselliich would discuss things like .Rusting to college life and p'ning about “Aggieism,” has in tossed around for the past e or six years, but until now S not been talked about in aiest. llatchley idea for the lentation class was originated \ ill i by a group of students ' who were concerned that freshmen and transfer students might not be getting the full flavor of Tex as A&M. The students might be missing out. the group said, either because they live off- campus or because they did not attend Fish Camp. “The students whom I have been discussing the idea with are concerned that there are some students that feefthey are never 100 percent Aggie due to not living on campus or not go ing to Fish Camp,” Blatchley said. New students who want to live on campus but don’t have the opportunity may not be able to seek out fellowship with other students, he said. “Belonging to a group, hav ing an organization supporting you and being involved in school is very important for new students,” Blatchley said. “That’s why fraternities, sororities and the Corps of Cadets are so important. The group gives them (new stu dents) support and fills a void in their lives. We hope that this class can at least be a step to ward filling that void.” The freshman course would discuss activities besides aca demics which students can be come involved in. He said that the class would not be required for incoming freshmen and transfer students, but students could get credit for it. The one- credit-hour class would either be taught by faculty or student leaders. tudent Affairs sponsors ianel discussion on rape he Department of Student [fairs will sponsor a panel dis- ion on rape tonight at 7 l in 206 MSC. he film, “Rape — A Preven- ive Inquiry,” a film which in- iews rape victims as well as ivicted rapists, will be shown fore the panel discussion to led by members of the stu nt body and staff at Texas Panel members Katrina I isig, a member of the Univer- C Police Department, will dis- 1 ssthe misconceptions of rape, |e motivation of rapes and pists and certain defenses [ainst rape attacks.
