One cadet said, “1 feel like I’m a
better person. We’re here because
we want to be here.”
Another cadet said that adversity
pulls them together.
“Believe it or not, a lot of fresh
men in the Corps think we re too
easy on them,” Rollins said. “People
are doing it because they want to or
because they feel like they should.
“A lot of the pressure has all of a
sudden disappeared and a lot of re
spect has gone with it. You have
pressure pushing down on you and
it’s let up. You all of a sudden feel
you’re f ree.”
The Corps is superior to any
other similar program, Rollins said.
“It seems like our attitude is much
better,” he said.
Although there are approxi
mately 2,050 cadets at A&M com
pared to more than 36,000 civilian
students, Rollins said that the Corps
still has a lot of say in the University
and a lot of pull.
Rollins said the Corps is looking at
systems to evaluate such things as
grades and leadership potential.
“The Corps is not more interested
in quantity than quality," he said.
“We’re not trying to make the Corps
selective.”
He said that the Corps should be
open to anyone who needs what the
Corps has to offer: discipline, re
spect and a chance to learn.

Proposition 2
A&M Senate supports PUF plans
By SARAH OATES
Staff Writer
“If ever there was an issue that
will benefit Texas A&M University,
it’s Proposition 2,” Neeley Lewis,
Democratic incumbent candidate for
State Representative told the Stu
dent Senate at its Wednesday meet-
ing.
‘It’s a watershed issue,” he said.
“Either we do it or we don’t.”
On Nov. 6, Texas voters will de
cide the fate of Proposition 2, a con
stitutional amendment to restruc
ture the Permanent University
Fund.
If it passes, Proposition 2 will
open the PUF to all universities
within the University of Texas and
Texas A&rM Systems. It also will cre
ate a constitutionally dedicated
Higher Education Assistance Fund
for the 26 state institutions outside
the UT and A&M systems.
Lewis urged the senators to tell
people about Proposition 2.
“This issue has been in the politi
cal arena for 10 years," Lewis said.
“We cannot allow it to fester in years
to come. We must put this issue to
rest.”
The Senate voted unanimously to
pass a resolution approving Proposi
tion 2.
In other business, the Senate
heard a report from Mike Hacht-
man. College Station City Council
liaison, on the City’s recent consider
ations about the Luther Street rail
road crossing where two A&M stu
dents were killed within 24 hours in
separate accidents.

Hosts should take responsibility
By MICHAEL CRAWFORD
Reporter
“We live in an age of liability.
When you give a party, especially if
given by a group, you assume re
sponsibility,” Jan Winniford, Assis
tant Director of Student Affairs, said
Wednesday night at the Off-Campus
Aggies’ meeting.
Winniford said a successful party
should de-emphasize alcohol. Hosts
should provide foods which are high
in protein, such as cheese, and non
alcoholic drinks for those who are
driving.
“We are not trying to tell you that
drinking is evil, but there is a re
sponsible way to drink,” said Winni
ford.
Winniford said that unless an or
ganization or person has a tempo
rary liquor license, selling tickets to a
parly serving alcohol is illegal.
Winniford said that students
should be aware of the following re
cent changes in drinking and driving
laws:
• A refusal to take a breath test is
admissible as evidence in court. It
also results in automatic license sus
pension.
• It is a class “C’
misdemeanor to
let a person whose license ha I*
suspended for DWI borrow a d
cle. v
• A blood alcohol level of.Illgi I
cent is considered proof of intoa
lion.
• A lower blood alcohol levdc

pared.
• DWI suspects can be
taped and the film submittal
court.
• DW’I may no longer be
off the record. It is a criminal
fense.

United Press International
AUSTIN — A government task
force Wednesday issued a 71-page
report encouraging a more stream
lined approach to the management
of waste facilities in Texas.
The 30-member Governor’s Task
Force on Hazardous Waste Manage
ment, appointed seven months ago,
recommended 70 improvements in
the state’s handling of waste sites.
The task force said the changes are
necessary to correct the widespread
belief that the state has mishandled
hazardous waste.
“The public in Texas lacks confi
dence in the enforcement of laws
and rules regulating the manage
ment of hazardous waste,” the re-
{ >ort said. “There is a pervasive pub
ic perception that government
officials have not been sufficiently
attentive to problems of improper
disposal, processing, storage and
transportation of hazardous wastes.”
Despite the public’s wary view of
waste site regulation, the report said
there is no “imminent crisis.” More
than 2,000 facilities produce ap
proximately 23 million tons of haz
ardous waste in Texas each year.
The task force questioned the
“business wisdom” of the state’s cur
rent policy of allowing two state
agencies — the Texas Department
of Water Resources and tne Texas
Department of Health — to share ju-
riscliction over different aspects of
hazardous waste management.
It said the dual jurisdiction results
in some administrative and enforce
ment duplication by the agencies.
The task force also said the Legis
lature should curb efforts by local
governments to block hazardous
waste facilities from locating in their

state contingency fund to payfori
cleanup of abandoned waste*
