The run will begin and end at the Aerofit Club and Activity Cen ter. The run will start at 9:30 Sat urday morning. Kathy Langlotz, assistant man ager of Aerofit, said Thomason was an inspiration to everyone he met. "Bill was a friend to everybody and he never met a stranger," Langlotz said. "If he was in a hur ry, you never knew it."

The campaign is somewhat complicated, he added. "Every college and every major unit has its own dollar goal in the campaign," Prescott said. "What we have, in effect, is 15 or so mini campaigns running under the umbrella of the big campaign . . . the campaign staff works closely with every college to try to make sure our efforts are coordinated." The gala is an opportunity to recognize present donors and po tential donors. Campaign volun teers will also be recognized. "This is the first time, in a large-scale way, we tried to get volunteers signed up to help raise the money," he said. "We feel it's always more effective when vol unteers are asking prospects for funds, rather than staff mem bers." Prescott said he hopes the gala will help make people aware of the efforts of "Capturing the Spir it" and make them comfortable about making donations to the University. "Many people want to help raise money for A&M but don't know the first thing about going about doing it," Prescott said. cer Society. The amount has in creased every year, and $2952 was donated in 1991. "We're hoping to set another record this year," Galindo said. The entry fee for students is $7, and all who participate will re ceive commemorative T-shirts. Sponsors of the event have donat ed over 75 door prizes, and win ners will be drawn after the race. The grand door prize is a round- trip ticket to anywhere American Eagle flies. Galindo said the bulk of the participants are students, but a va riety of people participate. "The area around Aerofit gets packed with people," Galindo said. "You find competition run ners and families who participate for fun and just want to donate money to a good cause. We some times have people bring strollers and walk with their kids." Galindo hopes the reason for the race will not be overlooked. "It's a lot of work, but we also have a lot of fun," Galindo said. "We want to maintain Bill's mem ory, but there is also the challenge to raise funds and to try to do bet ter." Langlotz also hopes the 5-K run will continue to honor Thoma son's memory. "This race should encourage us to take a few moments to mink about our faith in humankind," Langlotz said. "This gives us the opportunity to give back a littleof what Bill gave to us."

However, the store does not always sell as much lamb as Ri ley would like it to. "We usually don't sell as much lamb as we produce, but we do sell some to international students and people from the northeast, where lamb is a more popular meat than it is in Texas," he said. "Here in Texas, if people are buying meat, it's usually beef or pork." Riley said visitors to the cen ter ask him if most of the prod ucts are sold to students, but this is not the case. "I think we are probably the best kept secret on campus," he said. "1 wish we sold to more students." While Riley believes the cen ter offers competitively priced merchandise, some prices will fluctuate with market availabili ty- T-bone steaks generally cost around $5 a pound while half- f allons of ice cream range from 3.15 to $3.50, depending on the flavor. The center processes from 10,000 to 15,000 pounds of meat a month, 90 percent of which is sold at the retail store at the front of the building, with the other 10 percent being sold to wholesale distributors. The Rosenthal center oper ates under an annual budget of $500,000, which is usually about the same amount of money the meat and dairy sales operation pulls in a year, Riley said. "Some years we make more than $500,000, and some years we don't," he said.

"I have not eaten Indian food in a long time," he said. Natarajan also said he has found the United States to be a friendly place — not as dangerous as its reputation abroad. "People here are willing to help tourists," he said. Natarajan said he would like to specialize in environmental engi' neering and work for an interna' tional foundation. He said univef sities need to be more aware nl other countries' cultures. "I think multiculturalism isin 1 ' portant on any campus, but esp£' cially at A&M," he said.
