a meaningful minor which will lead to a strong academic and professional Degree. Students in the INTS
program usually have very definite plans of what they want to do after completing their degree. Some are opting
for a minor in Marketing, Business Administration, Speech Communication, Journalism, Computer Science, and
other areas which will make them particularly attractive in the international marketplace. Other students are
using their INTS degree in preparation for graduate or law school.

Volleyball team squeaks past Rice
From Staff and Wire Reports
The Lady Aggie Volleyball team took a tough four-game match
from the Rice Owls Wednesday night, winning on the road 12-15,15-
4,15-13,16-14.
A&M improved to 23-4 overall and 7-1 in the Southwest Confer
ence. Rice dropped to 10-13, 0-8.
The Lady Aggies were paced by senior outside hitter Sheila Mor
gan, who scored 18 kills against the Owls, and senior middle blocker
Amy Kisling, who notched 12 kills and nine blocks. Kisling led all
players with a .476 ‘

"We struggled but won 1-0
against them last time, and we
know this match will be for the
bragging rights of Texas."
Freshman goalkeeper Sunny
McConnell said she agrees with
Guerrieri that the rival Lady
Longhorns need to be taught a
lesson.
"This will be a bit of a grudge
match," McConnell said.
"This time around we need to
correct that mistake that was in
the papers and let them see the
real Aggie soccer team."
The tournament winner will be
determined on a point system.
Six points will be given for a win,
three for a tie, one for a shutout,
and one point for every goal
scored up to three goals. A maxi
mum of ten points can be
achieved per match.
Going into the weekend, Guer
rieri said he believes the first sea
son has already been a success.
"There has a lot of great indi
vidual drive and lots of pride on
this team," Guerrieri said.
"These players have a good
sense of chemistry, and they seem
to enjoy working hard for each
other. Wins just come from that
naturally."

"The team is doing real well,
considering the inexperience fac
tor and the number of freshmen
we have running," Snider said.
"For myself, I think I am where
I wanted to be this year."
Although he has set high goals
for himself in the five mile run for
the conference championship this
weekend, Snider predicted the
team would finish at fourth place.
"I think finishing in the top ten
individually will be a good ac
complishment for me," Snider
said.
"However, Texas, Rice and
Baylor are almost assured to fin
ish as the top three, so we will
have to battle it out with Texas
Tech and Southern Methodist for
fourth place."
Coach Marcinkieiwicz said he
would be pleased with a fourth
place finish from either team
based on the inexperience and
lack of funds for both programs.
"We don't have separate schol
arships for track and cross-coun
try, so we end up spending less
money on distance runners than
anyone else in the conference,"
Marcinkieiwicz said.
"We hardly ever get any out-
of-state runners - just Texans, but
all these kids give a great effort."

wild and woolly pals.
Maybe they will move Disney movies to 10 p.m.
like they have moved the Beavis and Butthead
show.
Whatever they do, I never thought I'd see the
day when Beavis & Butthead and Mickey Mouse
were both dangerous threats to the young televi
sion/movie-viewing public at large.
Who would have ever thought it?
I guess everyone should just quit Texas A&M
and blame Michael Jordan, who quit a successful
professional basketball career because he has ac
complished everything he wanted.
What's to stop us from "retiring" by saying that
we've accomplished everything we've wanted?
I have gotten my share of good grades. I've been
active in clubs and organizations, and I have met a
lot of people and learned things about cultural di
versity.
Whatever. Give me a break.
It is a sad statement for America when parents
can't restrict what a 5-year-old watches on televi
sion and juniors in high school are studying the
underside of a car instead of spending time think
ing about where they might want to attend college
in their near future.
The fact is that most people just don't want It
accept responsibility for their own actions - ifsal
ways got to be someone else's fault.
It is not just Beavis and Butthead or kidstryini
to duplicate movie stunts, it's the majority of pec*
pie who just can't stand to face the consequences;'
their actions.
For instance, everybody knows that some of tls
NCAA Division I schools pay their athletes, buttk
schools and the NCAA won't take the heatforthe
economic monster and money-luring tactics they
have created in college athletics.
Hey NCAA, admit it!
Personally, I don't see why they just don't make
paying athletes legal. If NCAA officials ever go!
off their butts and decided to investigate every ma
jor Division I program, there might not be any col- ^Continue
lege football bowl games on or before New Year's
Day because of the numerous violations, small oi
large, that the NCAA would find.
I he schools should rightfully compensate the
athletes for what they have earned and for the
recognition and revenue the players generate foi
the school.
No argument - just pay the players.
If people would just admit their own careless
ness and lack of thought, then maybe this country
could take some steps of progress forward, instead
of constantly moving backwards.
