"No one has made an effort to ask my opinion, nor has anyone in my hall ever been asked their opinions on anything the student senate considers." Peebles said she was denied in formation about the special ses sion, and also was told copies of the amendment under considera tion were not available. Senator Amy Martin said, how ever, that the information Peebles was seeking — as well as individ ual senators' telephone numbers — is available at the student gov ernment office. Senator John Happ, chairman of the committee which authored the original amendment, said he still believes student government experience is important, but the compromise amendment is ac ceptable. "I think candidates need to know the workings of student government in order to be a more effective leader of student govern ment," he said. "A person with student government experience would be a different leader than one with experience where. "But I think (thee is fair to everyone, an students were donei said.

Castillo said Clinton is the Democratic favorite, but the sto ries about his alleged adultery and draft-dodging will test him. "I think if he survives the whole (Democratic) primary pro cess and comes out the nominee, then that will settle whether he's electable," Castillo said. "If Gov ernor Clinton gets the nomination, then I think he would beat the president in the fall." Trimble said Bush will be re elected no matter who the Democrats nominate. "It doesn't matter really who they send," he said. "None of the Democratic candidates have a chance of beating the president. By November, the economy will be in an upswing, we'll still be able to capitalize on Bush's great success in directing the Gulf War, and it will all be over for the Democrats." Although Democratic hopeful Paul Tsongas won the New Hampshire primary, he probably will not do well in the rest of the country. Dyer said. "Tsongas winning New Hamp shire is probably very much a product of the local situation there because he is from the East Coast," he said. Trimble said Tsongas, who is pro-business, is too moderate to emerge from the Democratic Na tional Convention. "The leadership of the Demo cratic Party is too far to the left for him," he said. "Tsongas will have a very difficult time simply be cause the Democratic system won't nominate a moderate. Castillo said it is too early in the race to predict Tsongas' suc cess, but his ideas are an issue within the DemocraticPaj "The Democratic le, Congress has spoken i that they didn't Tsongas as far as hispro-l stance," he said.

Hobby said he can't see relief in the future when Texas is forced to spend less and less on education. "Texas should be investing a great deal more (in education)," he said. "That's what I believe, that's not what I predict." Hobby said with such unfavor able economic conditions and the state's inability to lure foreign in vestors, the state needs more em phasis on generating revenue by way of a state income tax and more efficient allotment of funds. Hobby said one example of in efficient use of state funding is cities with two universities close to each other. "I never understood why we have two state schools right across the street from each other in Houston and Denton," Hobby said. "Maybe the system has to crash and burn, but I don't see those things changing."
