Gadhafi
(Continued from page 1)
page memorandum sent to Reagan
by John M. Poindexter, the presi
dent’s national security adviser, and
was adopted at a White House meet
ing Aug. 14, the Post said.
The newspaper said the plan, as
described in the memo, involved “a
series of closely coordinated events
involving covert, diplomatic, military
and public actions.”
Reagan, in an interview’ with col
umnists, said, “I challenge the verac-
tity of that entire story that I read
this morning with great shock.”
While acknowledging the existence
of some memos, he said there was
nothing about a deliberate attempt
to mislead the U.S. press and people.
“Those (allegations) I challenge,”
Reagan said in the interview, a par
tial transcript of which w’as released
by the White House. “They were not
a part of any meeting I’ve ever at
tended. . . . This was not any plan of
ours.”
The president said the U.S. intelli
gence community has been tracking
whether Gadhafi is planning any ter
rorist acts. “And so, yes, there are
memos back and forth about that,
and what the information is.”
Reagan said it was legitimate to
take steps to “have Mr. Gadhafi go to
bed every night wondering what we
might do. And I think that’s the best

government and conducts studies.
Adkisson gets straight to the point
in his speech, his career and his life.
He leaves no room for wasteful
words or wasteful people.
“I like to be around achievers —
people who maximize the use of
their talents,” he says, adding that he
doesn't have much patience for un
der-achievers who waste their time.
“I’ve been around universities and
university people all my life and I’ve
seen a lot of people who have maxi
mized their talents — people who
have made achievements you would
think would even be beyond what
they could expect,” he says. “And
then I’ve seen some wasted talent.
Sometimes because the person was
lazy, sometimes because they just
weren’t dedicated.
“I like to be associated with quality
people. People who have been a suc
cess — who have pride in themselves
about what they’ve done.
“I like to be associated with the
same kinds of institutions.”
Although A&M is the seventh
largest university in the nation, Ad
kisson says he believes it still main
tains a lot of the good qualities that
were here when it was small.
“I thought that as the school got
bigger it would lose a lot of the spirit
and bonfires and all, but I’ve been
pleasantly surprised,” he says. “Dur
ing the time I’ve spent here, I’ve
been so busy in my own affairs that I
haven’t gotten caught up in a lot of
those kinds of things.

position for anyone like that to be

Asked if he thought it was all right
to plant false information in the
press to make Gadhafi nervous, Rea
gan said, “Oh, no. No.”
A senior administration official,
also quoted in the interview tran
script, refused to say whether the
Post story was “generally or rea
sonably or basically accurate.”

“I got a chance to see a lot more of
the undergraduate student life when
my daughter became a student.”
Adkisson’s daughter, Amanda,
followed in her father’s footsteps
with her bachelor’s degree in ento
mology. She also earned a master’s
from A&M in animal science and is
now an instructor in finance here
working on her doctorate.
“She’s a true Aggie — all the way,”
Adkisson says.
“You know, people say that the
Aggie ring is the best way to get
yourself introduced across the coun
try and I think that’s true,” he says.
“I believe this is one of the best
places for a student to go to school.

it’s not there. At least not at the ones
I’ve been at.”
Although his title is System chan
cellor, Adkisson remains an entomo
logist.
Why bugs?
“I like entomology because of the
applied part, it’s a very interesting
occupation,” he says. “You get im
mediate results of your work and
you have to exercise a lot of logic. It’s
sort of a combat operation — man
against insects, and insects are going
to prevail.”
How long does he think he’ll stay
chancellor?
“I’m going to to do thejob like I'm
going to be here forever, but I'm
going to treat everyone as if 1 miglii
die tomorrow,” he says.
“I still have ambitions to finish my
career as a professor in the entomo
logy department — not as chin-
cellor,” he says.
