the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity house
west of the campus on Saturday. He
said the non-hazing agreement
could be similar to one the ZBT na
tional chapter requires local chap
ters to sign.
The written summary of pledge.
programs “wouldn’t be a statement
in massive detail, but could be a
statement of the group’s philosophy
and ground rules,” he said.
Cunningham and state Sen. Gon-
zalo Barrientos were among the
guests at the forum, much of which
dealt with questions about the anti-
hazing campaign begun in Novem
ber by the UT administration.
The UT chapter of Alpha Tau
Omega this month was suspended
for at least three years and several
members of the group were sus
pended for two years because of a
hazing incident that sent several
pledges to hospitals with infections.

songwriter
to perform

Randy Stonehill, a Christian re
cording artist and song writer, will
perform at 7:30 p.m. tonight in
Rudder Auditorium.
Stonehill has been called every
thing but conventional. A recent ar
ticle described a concert Stonehill
gave on a college campus.
“He wore a checkered flag shirt,
an extremely yellow tie and Mick
Jagger-style pencil-stick slacks. Black
and white dancing shoes completed
the outfit. . .”
Stonehill’s latest album, “Love Be
yond Reason,” sounds very much
like the secular rock ’n’ roll music of
1986, reported the Waco Tribune-
Herald.
The only thing that hasn’t
changed over the 15 years since he
released his first album, the Tri
bune-Herald continues, is the mes
sage — Stonehill now, as always, pro
claims Jesus Christ as Lord.
Although Stonehill is a born-again
Christian, manager Ray Ware says
that he is not just a “Christian” musi
cian; he is a musician.
Ware says that many of Stonehill’s
fans respect Stonehill as a musician
and they understand that his lyrics
are coming from his heart.
“Randy is one of the few Christian
artists that has an ability to speak be
yond the church,” Ware says.
Stonehill, 33, recorded his first al
bum, “Born Twice,” when he was 19
years old. Since then, he has re
corded eight more albums and one
video album.
Stonehill has just finished a tour
of 45 dates in the United States. He
has been nominated for a Grammy
Award for his recent duet with Amy
Grant, “I Could Never Say Good
bye.”
The concert is presented by the
Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship.
Tickets at Rudder Box Office are $5
in advance and $6 at the door.
