Although many young
omen believe that inequality
pfttween men and women in the
work force has been eliminated,
they should be realistic about the
actual work conditions, Dr.
Lynn Haskin said Tuesday.
■“This idealism and optimism
must be maintained,” Haskin
said. “But I think we must cau-
^tion students also to be realistic.”
4 Haskin, professor of journal
ism at Penn State University,
spoke along with Dr. Sara
Alpern, assistant professor of
history at Texas A&M, at a lun
cheon program held in observ
ance of National Women’s His
tory Week.
,I)uring the luncheon, a state
ment from Dr. Frank E. Vandiv
er was issued proclaiming
March 6-12 as women’s history
week at Texas A&M University,
friie luncheon program, enti-
ed Perspectives on American
term investments and how
they will affect a company.
Many companies are faced
with pressure to increase
earnings every three months.
•Management must find
sources of money to finance
business endeavors when the
capital necessary to run a busi
ness is in short supply.
•Management must be
able to maintain cost competi
tiveness between companies
in an industry. McCardell said
the only way industry can sur
vive will be if companies are
competitive in the price of
their products.
•Management personnel
must be able to manage risk
taking. The daily pressures of
management inhibit risk
taking, but some business
risks must be taken.
•Management must be
able to set objectives that are
appropriate to their business
goals. McCardell said a major
goal of a business should be to
try to be better than the best
competitor and not just look
at its own performance re
cord.
•Management must be
able to handle labor unions
and their demands.
•Finally, the most impor
tant challenge of manage
ment is to remember that peo
ple in an organization are the
most important aspect of the
business. McCardell said man
agers should learn to criticize
employees privately, compli
ment employees publicly and
set objectives that are chal
lenging to the employee.

Kart,
Don’t
Women,” was sponsored by
Women in Communications,
Inc. and Phi Delta Gamma and
outlined the history and future
of women’s rights.
Haskin said young women are
optimistic because they believe
that things will be different for
them. They believe they won’t
experience discrimination be
cause they have a college educa
tion. Although conditions are
better today for women with de
grees, problems still exist espe
cially in the area of pay, she said.
Haskin said among ’ people
with bachelors degrees, women
earn 35 percent less than men.
Among people with graduate
degrees, women earn 29 percent
less than men, she said.
“And it is a fact that women
with college degrees earn less on
the average than a man w'ho
drops out of high school,” Has
kin said.
Students are optimistic abdut
getting better treatment in the
working world for other reasons
also, Haskin said.
“Women entering the work
force and students are optimistic
because they believe women
who came before them already
have fought the battles in the
work place,” she said.
Alpern said that essential to
the advancement of women’s
rights is the passage of the prop
osed Equal Rights Amendment.
The amendment, which fell
three states short of the 38 states
needed for ratification in 1982,
was reintroduced to Congress in
January.
Haskin agrees but said
women also have other channels
with which to influence the adv
ancement of womens’ rights.
Getting state equality amend
ments passed, electing qualified
political candidates who support
womens’ issues and by obtaining
leadership positions women can
further equality rights, she said.

Every spring break there is a
mass exodus of Aggies to their
homes, the beach or the ski
slopes. But when they return to
their dorms and apartments,
will everything still be there?
“Crime happens when a per
son has the ability, the desire
and the opportunity to commit
one,” University Police Chief
Elmer F. Schneider said.
Not much can be done to re
duce a person’s ability or desire
to steal, but the opportunity can
be reduced, he said. Schneider
suggested some ways that stu
dents can secure their property
while they’re away.
Doors and windows should
be locked on dorm rooms and
apartments and roommates
need to make sure the last per
son to leave double-checks all
entryways.
Items such as jewelry, radios,
expensive textbooks and other
small valuables should be taken
with the student if possible.
“If you can wear it or carry it,
then take it with you. That way
someone else won’t,” Schneider
said.
Bicycles should be locked and
chained to the bike racks. Don’t
rely on simply weaving a chain
through the spokes — a free
standing bicycle is easier to take
than one secured to a stationary
object. But don’t use trees or
handicap rails as substitute bicy
cle racks.

Schneider said off-campus
students who plan to leave their
cars may park them in Lot 48,
the blue sticker lot behind
KAMU-TV station, but should
not leave valuables inside the
car.
Students staying in College
Station need to be aware of the
reduced population, Schneider
said. If a student sees something
or someone suspicious, he
shouldn’t hesitate to call the
police department, he said.
“We think it is much better to
investigate a report of suspicious
activity and find nothing, than
have to investigate an incident
after it’s happened,” he said.
Senate considers
lobby issue tonight
Student Senators will consider
13 bills at their meeting tonight
at 7:30 in 204 Harrington in
cluding three from the Legisla
tive Study Group.
The study group submitted
recommendations to the Senate
to lobby on higher education
fees, the legal drinking age and
minority recruitment in the
Texas Legislature.
The group proposes lob
bying for an increase in tuition
by a set percentage of prede
fined costs, and for the use of
funds directly appropriated by
the Texas Legislature for
minority recruitment. It will lob
by against raising the legal
drinking age from 19 to 21.
The Bicycle Committee has
submitted a hill recommending
new bicycle registration proce
dures, the establishment of cam
pus bike paths and bike racks.
