Culturally diverse programming is one area that needs continued en couragement, he said. Multicultural awareness is an important part of edu cation, he said. “This is the living room of campus, and what I’d like to do is incorpo rate diversity into our programs and personnel,” Britton said. “I want to make sure we evaluate people as individuals,” he said. “A E lace where they truly can be — as Martin Luther King (Jr.) said —judged y the content of their character.” Britton said the quality of students involved with the different commit tees in the MSC indicates the leadership next year will be exceptional. “The faculty is going to like what they see in the coming year,” he said. “We’re going to try to incorporate the faculty more into types of pro grams the MSC produces,” he said. “I think working with the faculty will complement the development of the human mind and spirit.” Gorbachev. Continued from page 1 the Soviet Union,” said Gorbachev, who has called for all 15 republics to vote March 17 on whether to pre serve the union. He ordered national authorities and Soviet-controlled officials in Lithuania to “ensure strict imple mentation” of the national referen dum. That referendum will ask: “Do you think it is necessary to preserve the Soviet Union as a renewed feder ation of equal, sovereign republics in which the rights and freedoms of people of all ethnic groups will be Fully guaranteed?” The Lithuanian poll asks: “Do you support the idea that Lithuania must each other’s cultural background.” Edwards, a junior finance and ac counting major, says Carreathers be gan the program to help incoming ethnic minority freshmen with tran sitions to A&M. In 1988, 37 students attended the conference, but the number has grown to more than 400 students. More than 400 A&M freshmen are expected to attend the 1991 pro gram. This year the orientation is titled “Together We Can.” and takes place Aug. 30 through Sept. 1. On-campus orientation is sched uled for the weekend before school and does not conflict with Fish Camp, Edwards says. The program has different semi nars and workshops covering topics such as A&M life, self-esteem, time management, leadership and cultu ral identity, he says. Funniest on out-of-the-way places, Duncan says. Harding says ABC approached A&M last week about holding audi tions. Past stunts on the show include a karate-chopping chimp and facial Edward says about 120 parents also participated in last year’s pro gram. “The biggest thrill of the program is to watch people move from being uncomfortable and not knowing others to feeling comfortable and making new friends,” Edwards says. “Hopefully we can instill in Fish that together you can do anything you want to,” he says. “We are focus ing that you can’t win at A&M only by yourself.” The I CARE program also is part of the ExCEL format. I CARE is a support program for freshmen that deals with different themes during the school year, Edwards says. “The I CARE program is to let these freshmen know that someone does really care,” he says. “I CARE is like ExCEL but is a continuous proc ess throughout the school year.” Continued from page 1 impressions of cars.

At least five republics have re fused to hold referendums under Soviet law, which they reject on their territory. Three of the republics, including Lithuania, scheduled alternative polls. Gorbachev’s decree Tuesday did not mention Estonia’s vote on March 3 or Georgia’s on March 31. The decree as reported by Tass did not say what measures would be taken to enforce the March 17 vote. Continued from page 1 All AIDS victims are HIV posi tive, but not all those who are HIV positive have AIDS. Self said studies have estimated that 30 percent of those who test HIV positive develop AIDS symptoms in five years. The other 70 percent show signs of AIDS after five years.
