‘An Environmental Perspective]
Aggie receives
Girl Scouts’
highest honor
for video

The Battalion
Wlien most of us think of Girl
Scouts, things like Somoas, Do-
si-does and Tagalongs come to
mind. But one Texas A&M stu
dent has proven there’s more to
being a Girl Scout than selling
cookies.
Susan Armstrong, a freshman
bioenvironmental sciences major,
recently received her Gold Award
— the highest honor that can he
earned by a Girl Scout — for
producing a videotape on envi
ronmental awareness. The video,
entitled “An Environmental Per
spective,” gives an insight to the
environmental problems and
things that can be done to pre
vent them, Armstrong said.
“(The video) is based on the
growing intensity of the aware
ness that needs to be put out
nowadays. A lot of people don’t
catch on to that,” Armstrong
said.
Upon the request of the Tejas
Girl Scout Council in Dallas,
Armstrong submitted a three- -
minute video clip of her project
to the Earthwatch Take a Step
video contest.

When Armstrong sent in her

this past February, she was told
that she was one of five winners
of over 100 submissions.
”1 liked my video, but 1 knew
I was up against big chapters and

Change of pace for Jackopierce
Duo to promote new

After four years of,success, Jackopierce
will release their first major record label de
but, “Bringing On The Weather,” today.
The group will be at Marooned Records
this afternoon to perform an in-store concert
to celebrate the release of their fourth album.
Jack O’Neill and Cary Pierce are Jack
opierce, a Dallas duo who sing and play the
guitar. They have sold over 42,000 copies of
their three independent albums since they
met in 1988 at Southern Methodist Universi
ty. Jackopierce began playing at clubs in Dal
las and around Texas and soon had a fan base
across the states.
“College Station was one of the first places
we played outside of Dallas,” O’Neill said.
“A&M has been more than supportive.”
He said fans should possibly expect some
accompaniment at the upcoming concert.
“You’ll just have to see what happens,”
Pierce said. "You never know with Jack-

opierce.
For those who have never heard Jack
opierce, Pierce describes the band as “not al
ternative,” but “like alternative.” Their lyrics
are filled with intellect and sensitivity.
“We like to stay away from the words
‘acoustic’ and. ‘folk’ when describing our
music,” Pierce said.
Jackopierce decided to sign with A&M
Records after looking at several other compa
nies.
“We were hesitant at first, but we fell in
love with A&M,” Pierce said. “A&M Records
is just awesome.”
Pierce describes the new album “Bringing
On The Weather,” produced by T Bone Bur
nett (Counting Crows, Elvis Costello), as a
tougher and darker side of Jackopierce.
As on all of their albums, Jackopierce
wrote all of the songs on “Bringing On Hie,
Weather.” But for Jackopierce Fans, this#:
bum sounds a little different.
"Bringing Back The Weather” doesni
quite capture the energy and son! thatconreS

“Gary and I are beginning to approach,
