Wyatt received her award Tuesday by Lezlee Hinson Battalion Reporter The Department of Modern Languages recognized two out standing French students, pre senting them with the Prix d’E- xcellence — the prize of excell ence — in a brief ceremony Tuesday. The students selected for this honor were Krysta Wyatt a sophomore pre-med major from Lubbock, and Alan Hegi, a graduating senior from Peters burg with a double major in En glish and Spanish. Dr. Anne Marie Elmquist, chairman of the Modern Lan guages Department, said the fa culty in the French section chose the students whom they felt made exceptional progress dur ing the year, regardless of the level of instruction. Each of the French profes sors was asked to nominate the student whom he felt made out standing progress, said French professor Dr. Claudine Hunting. A committee of the French professors, including Hunting, Dr. Olivier Naudeau, Dr. Nancy L. Lawther and Dr. Eric H. Deudon, then evaluated the nominees on the basis of the written work they had com pleted during the year and on an interview with the committee — in French — to evaluate their oral skills. The Prix d’Excellence is not awarded to the student who does better than everyone else, Hunting said. It is awarded to students who have made ex traordinary progress in master ing the language. If there is no such student, she said, there will be no award. Both students were pre- sic French literature.

Marinelle Timmons, the state director of Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, lauded the bill approved by the subcommittee as a “step forward,” but express ed reservations that the bill might not go far enough. “If the driver is riding alone, we’ve got him,” she said. “If there’s a passenger, I have no doubt the driver will hand the beer to him. “We would have like to have seen alcoholic beverages banned in the passenger compartment. But the law does say basically that we don’t condone drinking while driving, and that’s the atti tude that we’re trying to get across in the state.” FUIM • FOOD • DRIIMKs • Convenient to campus • Brand new • Spacious floor plans • On-site leasing and management • Pool, fireplaces, laundry room Now preleasing! 1107 Verde Drive between FM-2818 and Villa Maria Road 779-1136 Domino’s Pizza Delivers.?.
