However, several graduate students who work in the building and in the other buildings in West campus do not agree. Many of them said they had never seen any patrol cars in West campus. Mary Ann Oprisko, president of the Graduate Student Council, said she and other graduate stu dents and professors are currently working to change this. Wiatt said if there are security light malfunctions or dark areas that may need lights, they should be reported through a UPD phone line that handles such problems. By calling 845-4448 (84LIGHT), anyone can inform a UPD dis patcher where lighting problems are and have the area examined. Oprisko said she and several others called the number to report the lack of lighting outside Cater- Matil, but it took several days for anything to be done. She said she also reported the problem to Dr. John Koldus, vice president for student services. Wiatt said that sometimes it does take the plant time to check for adequate campus security be cause there are so many areas they cover. "The plant has a lighting crew that takes over the problem as soon as possible," he said. "If something happens on Friday, un less it's an emergency, things can't get taken care of until Monday morning." Koldus reported the problem also and said the situation was be ing handled. Trees around the building that blocked security lights were trimmed, and lights have been in stalled in the doorways of Cater- Matil. In addition to the security problems, Oprisko said there is a parking problem in West campus. She said the only parking lot avail able to graduate students is lot 64, which also has no security light ing. Robert Smith, vice president for finance and administration, said he is assessing the parking needs in West campus, andj; pecially considering the area'; ture expansion. "We are in the processoi velopung a program of reqt ments for a West campus patl garage," he said. Oprisko said she approat Smith with the suggestioi building a temporary gravel ing lot for students to useo land where the parkinggi would be built. But Smith said itwasntf simple as pouring gravel area. It is a financial investir, and a drainage system wt| have to be built, he said.

Interna tional students comprise 6 percent of A&M' student body. None of the funding from the fee would be applied toward ad ministrative functions. It would all remain in the hands of the stu dents, Parrish said. The resolution was tabled un til the next meeting of the Senate because of concern that the Sen ate, and not the student body as a whole, would be endorsing the new fee, and as such needed to consider the matter more thor oughly. Concerns were raised about whether the opinion of the student body was indeed repre sented by the Senate, and also whether some type of student body referendum was feasible. "The primary reason we're tabling the resolution is to allow us to properly gauge student opinion on this issue," said Sena tor Bill Van Eman. "Therefore, it is very important for all of our constituents to give us as much input as they' can." The Senate also decided to overhaul a resolution giving Sen ate support of the A&M adminis tration in its handling of recent al legations concerning harassment in the Corps of Cadets. The reso lution, in revised form, will be up for vote at the Senate meeting next Wednesday. "The resolution is good in the ory, and the steps taken so far by the administration have been good with quick action taken," said Senator Jolin Ansbach. "But this is an opportunity for students to express themselves and make a statement against discrimination in any form. "The revisions would make the resolution more than just a 'blank check' approval of Univer sity actions," Ansbach said. Academic Affairs Chairman Brad Hampton, who co-sponsored the resolution with three other Senate officers, felt the resolution was adequately worded and that the revisions would address a sep arate issue. "I think the resolution says what it needs to say," Hamptoi said. "The bill is specifics - it is not a blanket statement concerned only with the recer:| cidents." Hampton said he agreestcj idea of an anti-discrimination statement by the Senate. "I think, however, that it should be separate from t iution," he said.

The vast majority of victims decline to report clear-cut cases of being touched or threatened with a demotion. Even fewer are likely' to stand up against subtler but no less inappropriate workplace be havior. A 1987 study' of federal gov ernment employees showed that 42 percent of women and 14 per cent of men said they'd experi enced some form of uninvited and unwanted sexual attention. Only' 15 percent of women and 7 per cent of men said they'd reported their allegations to a boss or other officials. "They think, well, this is life," said Lynn Hecht Schafran, an at torney with the NOW Legal De fense and Education fund. "You just have to put up with people patting you on the fanny, making comments about your body or having pornography in the work place." Hill's allegations and accusa tions that the Judiciary Committee failed properly to investigate them, have brought to a boil anger about sexual harassment. In North Dakota, about seven calls a day have been coming in at the EEOC's local office, where the average usually is about seven a month. Potential victims want to know their rights, said director Jack Lynch. But few want to identify their employer and fewer still have filed complaints. "Even if they recognize them selves as victims of sexual harass ment, many perceive that bringing it out into the open will only back fire on them," Gruber said from Dearborn, Mich. "The v'ictim goes on trial," said Kathleen Neville, who brought charges against a Buffalo, N.Y., television station. "I thought I was viewed as a professional. But the minute I raised a com plaint about sexual harassment it was suddenly like everythij had done, every personal inteil tion, even the fact that I wa:| and single, was called intoqJ tion." Activists said victims mav it easier to come forward prosecute once they'verealiil the law is clearly defined.
