Gee, \ m YtoV Vgry I Wt r 00 Pregnancy Continued from Page 1 1 "Abortion was too permanent an answer for my temporary problem," Ezell said. "I never saw or held my daughter. She became my missing piece." The baby was the only child Ezell ever bore. Twenty years later, she received a phone call from her daughter who is married and has two children. Together the two have appeared on the talk shows "Geraldo" and "Sally Jesse Raphael" to pro mote adoption as an alternative to abortion. "I don't paint myself a hero," Ezell said. "If it had been as easy to get an abortion then as it is today, I might have done it. A couple may decide when to make love, but God decides when to make life." Bob Wiatt, director of the University Police De partment, said two sexual assaults were reported on the Texas A&M campus in 1993. Both cases were in cidents of date rape. No cases of rape have been reported on the A&M campus in 1994. "It would be naive to think that only two cases of rape occurred on campus last year," Wiatt said. "In the case of date or acquaintance rape, the vic tim feels some degree of embarrassment or guilt be cause they knew their attacker. That makes them re luctant to make a report." In both reported assaults last year, the victim! not prosecute their attackers, Wiatt said. The University is making a massive effort to cate students about rape. "Rape will not be tolerated," Wiatt said dents must be educated about their responsil and accountability in assault situations, woman says 'no,' she means 'no'. Anything!! that is sexual assault." Wiatt said the Rape Crisis Center counselste 15 assault victims each month, and not all the involve students. "The educational message is getting ami ^ Wiatt said. "We still have a ways to go. Justbe;:. , .. c? f i i / 4 t" i rVL- f ^ F c~\c n mr a woman has too much to drink and takesamaf her dorm room does not justify sexual assault, i men and women need to understand that." Cindy Nevels, public relations coordinator (oi l Bravos Valley Crisis Pregnancy Service, saidi Texas A&M students use their facilities. "The Brazos Valley Crisis Pregnancy Service* created with the intent of providing emotional,!f: | tual and practical support for women experim l° n g crisis pregnancy in the Brazos Valley," Nevelssai: F The facility is a non-profit agency that I help women faced with unwanted or unplani pregnancy. The facility offers services such as free pregnail testing, counseling, medical referrals and post-a™ tion counseling. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE PUTTING TOO MANY RETIREMENT DOLLARS. E very year, a lot of people make a ’ huge mistake on their taxes. They don’t take advantage of tax deferral and wind up sending Uncle Sam money they could be saving for retirement. Fortunately, that’s a mistake you can easily avoid with TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs not only ease your current tax- bite, they offer a remarkably easy way to build retirement income—especially for the “extras” that your regular pension and Social Security benefits may not cover. Because your contributions are made in before-tax dollars, you pay less taxes now. And since all earnings on your SRA are tax-deferred as well, the money you don’t send to Washington works even harder for you. Down the road, that can make a dramatic difference in your quality of life. What else makes SRAs so special? A range of allocation choices—from the guaranteed security of TIAA to the diversified investment accounts of CREF’s variable annuity—all backed by the nation’s number one retirement system. Why write off the chance for a more rewarding retirement? Call today and learn more about how TIAA-CREF SRAs can help you enjoy many happy returns. Benefit now from tax deferral.
