On-campus students may vote in the MSC. • No. 1: To boost lawmakers’ pay from $7,200 a year to $23,358 begin ning in 1991. The salaries of the House speaker and lieutenant gov ernor would rise to $46,716. The proposal also would remove the current constitutional require ment demanding voter approval of any legislative pay hike by tying law makers’ salaries to the governor’s pay, which lawmakers approve • No. 2: To authorize issuance of $500 million in additional Texas wa ter development bonds, including money for improvements in the South Texas colonias where hispanic immigrants live in third world condi tions without running water or sew age facilities. • No. 3: To authorize $75 million in bonds for programs to assist in the development of small businesses, ag ricultural production or new and im-' prove products within the state. • No. 4: To allow exemption of property of non-profit veterans’ or ganizations from ad valorem taxes, which are levied according to as sessed value. • No. 5: The “freeport” amend ment to allow, on a local option basis, exemption from property taxes of certain personal property in Texas only temporarily for assembly, stor age, manufacturing, processing or fabrication. • No. 6: To permit members of a Dissect (Continued from page 3) dents objecting to dissection. “We will in time, I’m sure, have a student who will have an aversion,” he said. Joiner remembers one student’s objections several years ago to A&M’s dissecting practices. She wrote to Joiner, protesting the use of pound dogs for physiology labs. She told him that she did not benefit from the dissection and a video or book would have done as well. Joiner said. “I wrote her back and tried to ex plain to her where we were coming from,” he said. The animals were in the pound and were going to be de stroyed anyway, he said. “It was not something causing the animal any more suffering than if he had been put to sleep,” Joiner said. “I don’t know if she accepted that.” Actually, the use of dogs bothers Joiner, as well. People abandon their dogs, which end up in the pound, he said. “That’s a societal problem we’ve never addressed in this country,” Joiner said. He said he would be happy if the dogs were not in the pound, but veterinary students do benefit from studying them. “But I think some veterinary and medical schools have developed al ternatives if a student has philosoph ical or ethical problems,” Joiner said. “Medical schools, I think, can more easily do away with live animal labs than vet schools.” Even though specific laws protect ing college students who refuse to dissect do not exist. Joiner said most schools offer alternative programs for students with philosophical or ethical objections to dissection. Schools without alternative pro grams will probably offer special ar rangements, he said. “A school that would resist that would be in court pretty quickly,” he said. Joiner said even though it works hardships on instructors when stu dents do not follow class plans, A&M will try to work out alternatives to dissection with students who object to it. “With all of the technology today, they could probably make a model that mimics tissue better than doing a dissection on an embalmed an imal,” Joiner said. hospital district governing board to serve four-year terms. • No. 7: To require elected or ap pointed state officials to sign a writ ten oath stating they didn’t engage in bribery to obtain the office and re move from the verbal oath the brib ery provision. • No. 8: To issue up to $400 mil lion in general obligation bonds for correctional institutions, youth cor rectional institutions and mental health institutions. • No. 9: To allow the Legislature to merge the state prison, parole and adult probation agencies into a sin gle operation. • No. 10: To permit courts to in form juries about the effects of good conduct time and eligibility for pa role on the prison sentences im posed. • No. IT.
