Tutor

moved to several different campus
rooms and buildings while working
for Varvel.
A policy, listed on page C. 19 in
the A&M System Administrative
Policy and Reporting Manual, states:
“It is necessary to regulate activities
of organizations and individuals de
siring to solicit donations, or sell or
promote products and services di
rectly with students, employees, and
visitors.” The policy also says, “Orga
nizations and individuals desiring to
engage in such solicitations and sales
shall be required to obtain written
permission prior to beginning their
activity.”
According to the policy, an indi
vidual wishing to sell a service on
System property must get permis
sion from the A&M Concessions
Committee. However, an official
with the concessions committee said
such sales normally are restricted to
recognized student organizations.
The official said Varvel did not
get permission from the concessions
office, either as an individual or un
der an organization’s name. The of
fice requires that the individual and
the organization be listed when per
mission is granted.
Jerry Cain, A&M associate gen
eral counsel, said the University of
fers limited use of its property for
commercial purposes.
“For the most part,” Cain said,
“we are closed to commercial ven
tures. We don’t even allow solicita
tions in dorms.”
The former Varvel employee who
requested anonymity said he re
cently quit working for Varvel after
discovering the possible violation of
System policy. The former employee
said he was teaching classes of about
10 to 12 students for Varvel in the
Blocker Building, but that Varvel re
served the rooms under the name of
a fraternity.
“He moves from classroom to
classroom just to stay ahead of the
people in scheduling,” the source
said. “They’re (Blocker Building)
baffled with the fact that he’s using
the fraternity’s name.”
What he’s doing is profitable, said
the source, who also said he believes
Varvel is “grossing somewhere be
tween $3,000 and $4,000 per week.”
The employee said he also would be
“the first to say that he’s just about
the best chemistry tutor in the
school. I took his session and made
an easy ‘A.’ ”
Section II, Paragraph 65 (1) of the
1986-1987 Texas A&M University
Regulations dictates the policy for
using University facilities.
T he regulation says that before an
individual or group can schedule on-
campus meeting spaces, the meeting
must involve at least one of the fol
lowing:
• Faculty and staff groups offi
cially sanctioned by the appropriate
vice presidents;
• Student organizations officially
recognized by the vice president for
student services through the direc
tor of student activities;
• Activities of the Association of
Former Students sanctioned by the
Office of the President of the Uni
versity;
• Other University-sponsored ac
tivities when approved by the appro
priate vice president.
The Media Center is in charge of
reserving rooms in the Blocker
Building.
A Media Center employee said
Varvel’s name was listed several
times in the scheduling book under
the name of a fraternity. The em
ployee referred to the fraternity as
“ATO.” However, Chuck Collins,
president of Alpha Tau Omega, said
Varvel has no connection with that
fraternity.
In a recent interview, the Media
Center employee said Varvel had
been told he no longer could reserve
classrooms in the Blocker Building
because of the illegitimate fraternity
name. T he Media Center employee
said the center checked into the le
gitimacy of the fraternity’s name af
ter being questioned by The Battal
ion.
A staff member in charge of
scheduling in the O&M Building
confirmed that Varvel’s name also
was listed in its books supposedly un
der the name of a fraternal organi
zation — Alpha Tau Theta. How
ever, no organization with that name
could be located, and a spokesman
in the A&M Student Activities Office
could not confirm the name of such
a Greek organization.
T he staff member said Varvel had
reserved two rooms in the building
— each with a capacity of about 50
people — for the whole semester,
but couldn’t confirm whether he was
holding tutoring sessions onjfl
lar basis.
