Ma disc AUSTIN (AP) — A cereal taken off Texas store shelves by state officials because they said it was mislabeled and made false health claims may soon reappear under a different name, officials said Tuesday. Kellogg Co. has renamed its Heartwise cereal to Fiberwise. The Texas attorney general's office and health department have been fighting Kellogg, the world's leading producer of re ady to eat cereal, since last year over Heartwise. State officials contend that Kellogg was advertising Heart- wise for medicinal purposes, and that the so-called medicinal ingredient, psyllium, was a po tent laxative that had a history of serious allergic reactions in some users and had not been ap proved by the federal Food and Drug Administration. Bill cuts $94 million Continued from page 1 larger than 37,500 students — Texas A&M and the University of Texas — would absorb the rest of the losses, cuts amounting to 26 percent of each school's fund ing. "It's pro-rated so 80 percent of the (total) budget cut falls on UT and A&M," Mobley said. "It's clearly problematic." The cut means A&M will lose $94 million in current services funds over the next two years. The University spends over $40 million each semester on teach ing salaries alone. Gage said. "You begin to see the impact (on A&M's faculty)," he said. "We are personnel heavy." Gage said the Senate bill pro vides funding closer to the cur rent services level, and officials at A&M and UT are working with legislators to get the confer ence bill's funding closer to that level. Mobley said the conference committee was unlikely to com pletely restore higher education funding, but A&M officials were working with legislators. "We're continuing to com ment and provide input to both houses," he said. Students support fee hike OJhEM MoMUNAWE 5MUJ5 UP.

Zucker said he concluded from the results citizens widely support increased tuition. What’s Up "We don't want higher educa tion to be weakened," he said. The goal of the survey was to measure support and test public opinion at tne time the study was conducted, beginning in April. Zucker said he believes the poll question is fair, but said it is possible that if only college stu dents and their parents had been polled the results might have been different. A tax increase was also consid ered to generate money for higher education but did not re ceive as much support as a tu ition increase, Zucker said.
