about religion must be followed,
he said.
"We are not preaching, and
we are not pushing one religion
over the other," he said. "If we
were going to do that, we would
be in trouble because this is a
public institution."
Dr. Richard Stadelmann, asso
ciate professor in philosophy
and humanities, said A&M stu
dents could take religious stud
ies courses off campus and re
ceive credit at the University 30
new minor
years ago.
A&M dropped the courses be
cause they were taught by pas
tors and ministers from the com
munity churches, he said.
One pastor even gave stu
dents an "A" if they were bap
tized at the end of the semester,
Stadelmann said.
He said this practice was con
sidered illegal because it was vio
lating the separation of church
and state.
Stadelmann said colleges can
teach religion but only as an ob
jective discipline and the off-
in religious
campus courses taught by min
isters were not considered objec
tive.
"We did not accept these
courses taught off campus on the
grounds they were illegal," Sta
delmann said. "A&M also
dropped the courses because of
the tremendous difference in
quality of the courses."
For a period of 10 years, there
were no religious courses at
A&M. But over the years, A&M
started to add religious courses,
beginning with Indian and
Oriental Religions in the philoso-
studies
phy department, Stadelmann
said.
Other courses added were
Near Eastern Religions, The Old
Testament and Sociology of Reli
gion. The New Testament also
was offered in the philosopy de
partment, and the Bible as Liter
ature was offered in the English
department.
Stadelmann said religious
studies at A&M have been op
posed in the past because some

seniors in liberal arts.
□ They tried to not cut courses
crucial to graduating seniors in
other colleges.
□ They tried to cut sections in
courses with multiple sections
before they cut entire courses.
Minor consideration was
given to new faculty expecting to
work this summer, Fallon said.
Also, courses were cut on the ba
sis of how much revenue the col
lege would gain by cutting them.
"We made sure we were re
covering a significant amount of
funds," he said.
Fallon said although he was
not sure they made the best deci
sions about which courses to cut,
they did the best they could on
short notice.
A&M administrators learned
two weeks ago they would have
to return $3.2 million, or about
1.5 percent of the total state ap
propriations and revenues of
$209 million.
Individual colleges were not
given their shares of the cut until
the beginning of last week, Fal
lon said.
He said that during the next
few weeks the liberal arts college
would comb its budget to look
for additional financial resources
to open more class sections. But,
he said the college wanted to
make sure students did not sign
up for courses that would be cut.
A&M President William Mob
ley said summer programs al
ways have been a challenge and
the administration would try to

summer courses cut
accommodate as many students
as possible.
The liberal arts and science
colleges were hurt the most by
cuts because they provide the
majority of core curriculum
courses, or courses taken by
non-majors, he said.
He said the administration
would try later to reopen courses
needed by the most students.
"We'll know more later in the
week as we see the demand,"
Mobley said.
Sixteen of the 26 sections of
public speaking, SCOM 403,
were closed, seriously hurting
the department's ability to deal
with the number of students
needing the class, said Dr. Rob
ert Ivie, head of the speech com
munications department.
He said the department has
had problems accommodating
the number of students needing
the class in regular semesters,
and the summer situation only
makes matters drastically worse.
Gage said the current budget
shortfalls might become worse in
the fall, which is also the start of
the new fiscal year. Next year's
budget will determine the fall
schedule, which could include a
cutback in offerings and in
creased class sizes, he said.
Students concerned about
their summer schedules should
consult their advisers or depart
ments offering the courses in
which they are interested.
