The blade was found in a search of the jail after the Brazos County Sheriffs department discovered workers had access to the jail through a roof entr ance adjacent to both the old jail and new expansion. The entr ance is used to maintain equip ment on the roof. Elliot said he has taken mea sures to keep people out of the old jail. The workers were told to stay away from the entrance and that anyone caught would be arrested. The sheriffs de partment posted a no trespas sing sign. The courthouse expansion, which will include a new jail, courtrooms and a juvenile de tention center, is going better than expected, Elliot said.

According to Dr. Ruth Schaf fer, professor of sociology, Huey L. Perry was unable to meet the tenure requirements because of time spent trying to help minority students. Dr. Clinton Phillips, dean of faculties, said Perry was not de nied tenure on the basis of race. Perry was one of a very few minority faculty members at Texas A&M — so few that his loss is significant. While loss of tenure is common throughout the University, Schaffer said, it doesn’t significantly reduce the number of non-minority faculty members because they are pre sent in greater numbers. Texas A&M’s efforts to im- guarded Oscar “In the past, we’ve had thousands of dollars worth of stuff stolen from the yard,” Haynes said. “Once, they broke into my building and got $5,200 out of the safe. But since Oscar has been out there, we haven’t lost a thing.” There’s one drawback to hav ing a guard bird at his business — the employees are just as frightened as the thieves.

Schaffer said facul ty members have a six-year period in which to accomplish certain goals in the areas of teaching, research and service. So Jefferson’s aim is to con vince the University to recruit minority faculty who can meet the requirements. “The only thing we can do is sit down and talk,” Jefferson said. “I think once you have open communication, then that starts to open the door.” Another possibility Jefferson spoke of would be for Texas A&M to hire minority counse lors who could help students and take some of the load off professors. Jefferson said she and others have been talking with several Texas A&M administrators ab out the issue, including the pres ident, chancellor and the dean of faculties.
