Writing Outreach, a series of non
credit, free mini-English courses, be
gins its fall schedule with a workshop
on Sept. 16 called “What is Writing
and What Does it Mean to be a Wri
ter?”
Sponsored by the Freshman En
glish Studies Program and the de
partment of English, the program
extends an open invitation to anyone
interested in improving writing abili
ties.
With topics ranging from “Writ
ing Essay Exams” to “What is a Par
agraph?” and “Punctuation: Acces
sories to the Word,” the series
provides a wide range of topics to
help many factions of the local pop
ulation, graduate student Rick
Evans, coordinator of the program
said.
“People come to use these sessions
as a form of self-enhancement,” he
said. “This is a good way for these
people to get the kind of help that
they think they want.”
However, improving writing skills
is only one goal of the program.
Writing Outreach also is designed to
show the English faculty and staff
different ways of designing and pre
senting instructional materials and
to provide them with additional tea
ching experience.
The English department’s faculty
and staff teach the sessions on a vol
unteer basis, Evans said.
In its early stages, the program at
tracted only 300 to 400 people a se
mester, Evans said. However, enroll
ment rapidly increased and the Fall
1985 series attracted over 500 peo
ple.
Last spring when Evans began
coordinating the program under the
direction of Dr. Gwendolyn Gong,
director of Freshman English Stud
ies, several changes were made.
Evans cut the number of sessions by
almost 40 percent, leaving only 26
sessions.
Despite the cut in the number of
sessions, Evans reports a 12 percent
increase in attendance, with each
session averaging 10 to 16 people. A
steady increase in this fall’s atten
dance is expected, Evans said.
Evans also lengthened some ses
sions, making 17 of them two-hour
intensive workshops and 13 of them
one-hour special help sessions. The
long workshops offer lectures on the
given topic and hands-on experi
ence, while the shorter sessions are
more concerned with addressing
particular writing problems.
The sessions are funded by a
$1,000 grant from Texas A&M’s
Center for Teaching Excellence.
White says answer
to fiscal problems
includes tax hike
AUSTIN (AP) — Lawmakers are
well on their way to solving the state
budget crisis and they will find the
solution has to include a tax hike,
Gov. Mark White said Thursday.
White made a quick visit to the
House to deliver his proclamation
opening the current special session
agenda to a minor bill. After chat
ting with Speaker Gib Lewis, White
said, “I’m pleased by the progress
he’s making and I think we’re going
to see a resolution of our problem.”
Asked what Lewis had told him
about a tax hike, the governor said,
“He’s working to the bottom line.
That’s where we’re all trying to go.”
The bottom line in balancing the
budget must involve spending cuts
and a tax hike, White said.
The governor is pushing a tempo
rary increase in the sales tax, raising
it to bV* percent from the current
4 1 /s percent through August 1987.
Lewis has been the prime oppo
nent to the tax hike, saying he would
not consider a tax bill untu spending
cuts are approved.
The 10 negotiators striving to set
tle difference between Senate and
House versions of spending cuts for
1987 met Thursday afternoon but
reached no final decision.
Lewis said any tax bill brought to
the House floor before the cuts are
made would fail.
“The membership I talked to feels
the same way that I do, that we have
a well-defined and laid-out game
plan, that we first try to make reduc
tions . . . and then at that point if we
find ourselves short in reaching the
end of this biennium without going
into the red, then we will consider a
tax bill,” Lewis said.
Comptroller Bob Bullock has pro
jected the state will face a $2.8 billion
deficit when the current fiscal year
ends next August.
On Thursday, the House gave
tentative approval to a measure
pushed as a way to make $30 million
for the state by temporarily eliminat
ing the sales tax reimbursement kept
by retailers.
Under current law, retailers who
E ay their sales tax on time are al-
>wed to keep 1 percent of the total
they collect. The bill by Rep. Bill
Blanton, R-Farmers Branch, would
suspend the reimbursements until
September 1987.
Clements says
White cut ties
with Reagan
AUSTIN (AP) — A big reason
the state’s oil and agriculture in
dustries are in so much trouble is
that Democratic Gov. Mark White
severed Texas’ ties with the White
House, Republican challenger
Bill Clements charged Thursday.
Clements, the former governor
ousted by White in 1982, said
White has been so criticial of Rea
gan that when Texas needs help,
the administration won’t listen.
Clements, who spoke to the
Austin Young Council of Real
tors, said that White has damaged
the state’s ability to get federal at
tention on issues involving oil, gas
and agriculture.
For months, White has urged
Reagan to impose an emergency
tariff on imported oil to help bol
ster the price of Texas oil and re
fined petroleum products. But
Reagan consistently has refused.
Clements noted that when Rea
gan called a White House summit
meeting on oil problems, he in
vited the governors of Oklahoma,
Wyoming and West Virginia, but
not White.
Tree college’ project
may begin in Dallas
DALLAS (AP) — An impromptu
offer that paved the way for disad
vantaged New York students to at
tend college could be copied in
Texas if a Dallas organization can
raise the funds and muster volun
teers.
Eugene Lang, a New York busi
nessman who six years ago offered
to pay the college tuition of Harlem
sixth-graders who graduated from
high school, is now working with of
ficials of the STEP Foundation to
initiate a similar program for 1,000
sixth-graders from six different
schools.
Lang said his impromptu offer in
Harlem turned into “the most rich,
rewarding experience of my life.”
Officials said the volunteers,
which may include Sunday schools
or businesses, will help students with
academic problems and anything
else affecting their schoolwork.
“We are looking to endow the
lives of young people who, because
of circumstances, have no reason to
hope,” Lang said. “We hope to en
dow them with a reason to dream.”
He said Dallas-area residents will
be the first outside of New York to
participate in the program he calls
the “I Have a Dream Project.”
Lang had not planned on making
the offer in June 1981 when he
made a graduation speech at Public
School 121. Instead, he had planned
a commencement speech on his at
tendance at the school 50 years ago.
“I decided to change the message
because of my perception of my au
dience, that my being there seemed
to be irrelevant,” he said. “There we
were, living in the same world, and it
was though we were centuries and
light-years apart, and I thought,
‘What can I do about this?’ ”
He promised the students he
would set aside $2,000 for each to
pay for their college education. He
told them if they would stay in the
school, he would add to the fund an
nually.
Fifty of those students are now
high school seniors and Lang ex
pects 47 to graduate in June. Of
those, 20 to 25 will be eligible to at
tend college, he said.
