Decorations sparsely cov- erecj the walls, chips and picante sauti were on every table, and a live ban! was playing the latest Brazilian hits. ^Hte people at the party come fro® more than 116 countries. They H names like Okan, Alena, Bha|ker, Diana, and Tom. Tom’s narnt is much longer, but too com plicated for the average American to ^Hounce, he said. ^Hiey come from countries like Turkey, Romania, India, Bolivia and Ethiopia. j^Bie party is sponsored by the In- terttilonal Students Association. Club president Gabriel Carranza, who is from Mexico, said about 2000 students are members, with about 1000 when the members bring their Billies together. ^Bndra Burke, who is from Dub- ^^^■Ireland, said that the club is open to anyone who wants to join. She compares the club with the global village that Texas A&M Presi dent William Mobley said has ar rived at the University. She said the club is a part of that global village, and promotes a shar ing of cultures. Once a month, Burke said, a host country will give recipes from their homeland for other club members to try. They meet the next month to see how close each person’s attempt at the recipe came to the original. The w'ay the food comes out is usually dif ferent from that of the host coun try, because the preparations usually reflect the particular style of food from the preparer’s homeland. The association publishes a news letter every three weeks with articles written by students about their homelands. The articles are written to help people see the countries as they really are and not the stereoty pical viewpoints held by many peo ple. Carranza said the group tries to have at least two parties a semester, but they also have picnics and other activities to appeal to different groups. Because the club includes so many people with so many different views, some problems are bound to occur, Carranza said. “You have to be careful not to of fend somebody,” Carranza said. “What could be normal for some body, could be offensive to someone else. I follow very closely to the con stitution of ISA.” Carranza said ISA is beneficial be cause it helps students who have dif fering ideologies together learn about one another. The people of a particular country do not necessarily hold the same views as their govern ments, he said. In the room, the first keg had been floated and the band was well into the second set. The global party continued. leedMtic Weonlfi io.

Then, seeking to regain the offensive, he took aim at Bush and his running mate, Indiana Sen. Dan Quayle, and audiences seemed to approve. “George Bush has been around Washington a long time, but if he couldn’t stand up to the Ayatollah or say no to Noriega, how will he mea sure up to Gorbachev?” Dukakis said in a speech in Chicago. In Dukakis’ speeches, tone (of voice) and at his campaign head- quarters, Sasso’s stamp is obvious. Dukakis has been more feisty, his staff invigorated and long-overdue channels of communication with Jesse Jackson and key members of Congress established. “It was an important development that brought our team up to full strength and we’re delighted,” said Kirk O’Donnell, the former Thomas P. “Tip” O’Neill aide who was brought in as a senior adviser to Du kakis after Sasso resigned a year ago. “I think first of all his relationship with the governor is very important but also his long experience in cam paigns,” O’Donnell said. “ He’s a well-respected, and deservedly so, political strategist.” Sasso was the architect of Dukakis’ presidential bid, turning his eye to ward the White House even as Du kakis campaigned for re-election as governor of Massachusetts in 1986. Sasso assembled the team, but was forced to leave it behind after admit ting he had a role in the “attack vi deo” showing Delaware Sen. Biden using the words of a British poli tician without attributing them. Re ports based on the videotape and subsequent stories about plagiarism put Biden out of the race, but then stories about Sasso’s involvement forced him from Dukakis’ side. Sasso, whose title is vice chairman, has kept a relatively low profile since returning and declined to be inter viewed about his impact. Other Dukakis aides, some speak ing privately, credited him with tak ing a number of steps to sharpen the campaign’s message and focus. “He’s gotten things moving,” said one aide who works closely with Sasso.
