"I didn't inhale and I didn't try it again." Clinton was at Oxford from 1968 to 1970. In the last presidential campaign, Tennessee Sen. Albert Gore Jr. and former Arizona Gov. Bruce Bab bitt acknowledged smoking marijuana in their youth. Other candidates denied ever trying the drug. Those questions arose in late 1987 when Douglas Ginsburg withdrew his Supreme Court nomination after disclosing he had smoked marijuana with his students at Harvard University. The disclosures had little impact on the campaign. but it marked the first time the presidential!: eluded people of the generation that grewiij recreational drug use. Later, in an interview with CBS's "UpIi Minute" program, Clinton said he madethei sure because "no one had ever asked me the question before . . . and I really do believe thatp people really do have a right to some privacy.' Asked if he knew he was breaking Englis when he smoked marijuana, Clinton said, sumed it was against the law, but whenwegoli they told us that as long as we did it inside our ments or whatever nobody would hassle us., was not into that."

Castedo said that from her lec ture, she hoped the audience would learn to love the culture and love the Spanish language. In addition to the lecture, Castedo was also available in the MSC Bookstore Saturday for a book signing and she held a work shop immediately which concentrated onthf ing aspect of being a novelist.

A native of Texas, Silber was a philosophy professor, and later dean, at the University of Texas in Austin from 1957 to 1970. He became Baylor University's president in 1971.
