comes up with a packaging solution
the customer feels good about and
the public feels will help solve envi
ronmental problems, but at the same
time McDonald’s must feel good
about providing a top quality prod
uct to the customer,” Jones says.
While McDonald’s is taking posi
tive steps to help save the environ
ment, Albert’s personal opinion is
that McDonald’s could be a leader in
changing the idea of fast food being
disposable.
“If McDonald’s would take it one
step further and lead the industry in
changing the perception of fast food
being disposable, that would be a
major step in recycling,” Albert says.
Jones agrees an effort to change
the perception of fast food is impor
tant.
She emphasizes the education of
children is important.
“We are informing children at a
young age that they need to have the
environment on their minds,” she
says. “I think it is the job of McDon
ald’s, nationwide and locally, to do
what we can to help teachers educate
students on not just what McDon
ald’s is doing, but on efforts being
made all Over.”
Albert believes plastic could be the
answer.
“I have often thought, ‘If a cus
tomer eats in the restaurant, why
does it have to be served on some
thing disposable?’
“There is a definite cost outlay in
purchasing plastic, for example eat
ing utensils and plates, but there is a
market for recycled plastic. If Mc
Donald’s would initiate a plastic re
cycling campaign, it could further
the efforts of what plastic recycling
needs to be,” she says.
The McDonald’s Corp. is re
searching recycling efforts within
some McDonald’s restaurants.
About 200 restaurants natonwide
are test markets for the recycling
program.
Jones is hoping the program will
be implemented in all McDonald’s
restaurants in the near future.

ing positively for Texas’ future.
“I think Richards will focus on ed
ucation so hopefully remarkable
things can happen in the area of ed
ucation,” Britton says.
Roger Roby, a junior mechanical
engineering major from Corpus
Christi, says he was indifferent to
both Williams and Richards and also
to the fact Richards is the second fe
male governor.
“It was an ugly election that hadio
be done,” Roby says. “1 was more
against Richards because 1 think
there will be a state income tax and
there is too much waste as there isin
spending money,” he says.
Tami Tolbert, a senior journalism
major from El Paso, says she is glad
Richards won because she disliked
many of the remarks Williams made
during his campaign.

demic Building so it would be more
convenient for students, Ansbach
said.
“During the day, students are al
ready here on campus,” he said. “In
between classes they were able to
stop by and talk to panelists.”
Ansbach said this year’s forum
also was different from last year be
cause the panel consisted of more
University administrators.
Last year’s panelists were student
leaders.
Patty Warhol, a student senator
who stood by encouraging students
to talk to panelists, said she was dis
appointed by the low turnout.
“This is sad,” Warhol said. “Stu
dents have gripes and complaints all
year long. So we offer them the op
portunity to speak to campus lead
ers, and they do not take advantage
of it.”
Ansbach, however, said he consid
ers the forum a success because ev
eryone who asked questions received
good feedback from panelists.
Questions ranged from “Why are
there so few parking spaces available
for off-campus students?” to “Can
the Board of Regents increase un
dergraduate tutition?”
Ansbach said other issues and
grievances forums might be held
during the spring.
“It might be more beneficial to
wait until the spring because more
issues are available,” he said. “The
more we do it, the more people will
know about it, and the more people
will attend.”
7-Eleven opens in Brazil
SAO PAULO, Brazil (AP) —
The giant convenience store op
erator 7-Eleven opened its first
shop Wednesday in South Amer
ica.
The store in Sao Paulo, South
America’s largest city, is architec
turally identical to that of the
13,000 other 7-Elevens around
the world.
Bill Ososki, the American di
rector of the joint venture, said
the store represented an invest
ment of more than $500,000.
The campaigns were negative and (
this hurt Williams more because he
was ahead in public opinion during |
most of the campaign, says Derrik.
Weir, a sophmore industrial distri
bution major from Deer Park.
“I don’t think most people were
happy with either candidate, but
we’re going to have to vote one way
or another,” Weir says. “I hate to see
that the negative campaigning had:
such a big effect on who won, but it
did. f
“I was pleased with the dosing : >
comments of Williams and how he r
accepted his defeat well. Hecongrat-.
ulated her and showed a lot of class. ■
especially after how the campaigns
had been,” Weir says.
Scott Nelson, a senior speech com- '
munications major from Plano, says
both candidates had qualities he
liked and disliked, and says the elec
tion was kind of a trade off.
“Richards will be helpful with ed
ucation and I agree with her view-il
points on education, hut if it actually
happens, then it will be great,” Nel- j
son says.

He also says the candidates’ posi
tions on education was a big factor in
the way he voted.
“But I don’t agree with Richards
position on pro-choice, which is that
there shouldn’t be any governmental
legislation banning abortion,” Nel
son says. “But one issue out of a hun
dred didn’t change my stance.
“The elections were interesting
because it seemed like a mudslinging
contest, but I would have liked to
have seen a debate between them,
and it would have shown a lot and
would have been more effective in
who was the better candidate,” Nel
son adds.
Alesia Coday, a sophomore bi
ology major from Dallas, says she is
happy with the election’s results.
“Richards has more experience,
and regardless of sex she was the
better person for the job,” Coday
says. “I guess she was the lesser of
the two evils because Williams was
like a Republican puppet.
“But I hope she is very effective in
education,” Coday adds.
