Candidate Steve Beller said he planned to improve the represen tation of all students by setting up an advisory board composed of students drawn from the diverse University population. "No matter who you are or what you do, we're all Aggies," Beller said. "I'll set up a Presiden tial Advisory Board with regular students on it, to give students better representation. "With this board in place, I would be in constant contact with students on issues that affect them, and will be better able to work in their interest." Beller also took a strong stand on the issue of having a student on the Texas A&M University Sys tem Board of Regents by opposing such a plan. "Having a student on the Board of Regents sounds good, but most people don't realize that the Re gents oversee more than just Texas A&M," he said. "We can't say we're the prime school in the system by having one of our stu dents on the board. The smaller system schools already complain they don't get fair representation. "I propose an advisory com mittee made up of representatives from each of the system schools to advise the Regents on matters that affect the student bodies," Beller said. Cash, however, strongly sup ported a non-voting student re gent, calling on the student body to begin calling their legislators to gain their support. "We've got to lobby the legisla ture," Cash said. "Last year, a stu dent regent bill made it through the state senate, but died in the house. "We need to organize the stu dents, provide them with the ad dresses of their representatives, and get them writing," she said. "That's the way we can get this done, by showing this is what we want." Ansbach also supported a non-voting student regent, and said another bill would be pre pared for submission to the legis lature, but with a few differences from the original one. "I worked with the legislature study group that came up with the first proposal, which called for two non-voting student regents," Ansbach said. "This year we're trying for just one student regent. "There have been students working on this project since the 1970s," he said. "This yearni got some young, new eneij workers who I believe wii job done, once they get orieu and that's what I'm going to with." Although Brooks suppor| non-voting student regem said his main focus wouli changing the approach tale | win over legislators. "Last year the bill was just one senator that didn'tlil | concept," he said. "To getthii passed we need to start cultiv, relationships with the legisll^l through the Association of Fo: Students and students' towns. "The committee set up toll for a student regent was a ure because of dissension beili member schools," Brooks "We have to try a different proach." I Voi Ansbach praises election committee's decisioj Continued from Page 1 "You don't expect things like this to happen at A&M," Ansbach said. "But since it did hap pen, the election commission followed it up properly and James (Phipps) did a good job in vestigating the incident. I'm happy with the outcome." Election Commissioner James Phipps would not comment on the findings. "They (the find ings) speak very well for themselves." The judgement of the commission is based on Article I, Section IV, letter K of the Election Regulations. The regulation states, "All mem bers of. the Election Commission and candi dates participating in the elections, shall con duct themselves according to the Aggie Code of Honor." Brooks is not the only candidate to incur a fine for election rules violations. Phipps said Thursday that there had been 12tol8\i tions to date, but declined to name an; gressors. Phipps did say that the election commi: would post a list of fines accured by alio dates, but after student elections were ova When asked why the commissionw wait until after the elections to post flit Phipps answered, "To be honest, that's the way I want to do it." NOW marches to raise rape awarenes Continued from Page 1 Milburne said the recent rapes in the Bryan/College Station area fueled the campus organization's desire for a protest against such violence. "There have been three rapes in Bryan/College Station in the last three months and there hasn't been a single event addressing the growing need to make people aware that the problem is on our campus," Milburne said. "I have never heard about a rape that has occurred in our community before this year. I don't think it's widely publicized." "Every woman and child is a potential target of male violence," Milburne said. "Together we can change our woman-hating cul ture." During her portion of the pro gram, Stock read an emotional poem to the crowd about friends that were victims of rape and murder. Stock was interrupted by a passing unit of cadets who marched within fifteen feet of her, drowning her out with their ca dence. Stock rolled her eyes and re marked, "We're really impressed, aren't we. Some people will do anything for attention." After finishing the poem in a wavering voice. Stock told the lis teners that she was tired of being afraid. "I don't think this is going to stop until women fight back," Stock said, brandishing a 90,000-volt stun gun she brought with her as an example of self-de fense devices. "I bought a Smith & Wesson .38 special and if I hear a noise in my house, I have it,"' Stock said. "I would hate to have to use it, but it was better to buy a gun than to die like my friend did." Linda Castoria of the Rape Cri sis Center spoke during the and laid some of the blamefi olence against women on the tus quo. "To accept things just bee they exist is to turn our baa women who have been viola Castoria said. "Wemusthaii freedom to go everywhere at time and not fear for ourli our dignity." Castoria said society pa ates violence by blaming wi "Do you comment th shouldn't have been in a place at a certain time?" said. "No one has therir force sex on anyone."
