Luedeker said having sex in to
day’s society is dangerous in the
United States.
“The failure rate of condoms is
very high,” she said. “Experts
who advocate the use of condoms
to protect against AIDS would not
rely on them in their own affairs."
Luedeker said a study showed
that IS to 18 percent of the times
people had sex with a condom, it
burst or had leakage and condoms
have a 1 0 percent failure rate for
the prevention of pregnancy.
‘ Women can conceive two to
three times a month, yet they can
contract the AIDS virus 365 days a
year,” she said, explaining that the
pregnancy prevention failure rate
reported is probably lower than the
actual pregnancy prevention failure
rate.
Luedeker said telling kids about
different forms of contraception is
as far as the schools should go.
“I don’t think high schools are
the place for condoms to be dis
tributed. You can go to Planned
Parenthood and ^et condoms free
and confidentially,” she said.
Luedeker said an argument often
used for providing condoms in
high schools is that kids are embar
rassed to buy condoms. She said
they’re not going to go to their
school nurse for condoms if they
can’t go to a gas station.
“It s a cop out. People are say
ing it’s inconvenient for kids to go
to Planned Parenthood,” she said.
“Why do we have to cater to kids
having sex?”
The Center for Disease Control
suggests that doctors wear blood-
proof latex gloves, caps, wrap
around glasses, masks, aprons, pants
and boots when coming in contact
with bodily fluids of a patient.

cademic affairs chair is to continue to moni-
or, influence and implement the U.S. Cul-
ures/International requirement to the core
:urriculum.
"I want to make sure before the core cur-
iculum is implemented by the Faculty Senate,
t includes student concern and the final deci-
ion that is made reflects student concern,”
darburger said.
Silloway said she wants to the external affairs
ommittee to set policies at a University, city
nd state-wide level and cited the Board of Re
lents as one of her objectives.
“I’d like to see a Senate liaison with the
hard of Regents,” Silloway said. “We’ve been
fighting to get a student on the board for the
past 25 years. I’m not sure I agree with a stu
dent regent but I definitely think we need a li
aison to inform them of student opinion.”
Pete Manias cited improving relations with
PTTS, changing the way students renew Aggie
Bucks, and researching the increase in the
Health Center fee as some of his goals.
“Basically as student services chair fd like for
student life at A&M to improve,” Manias said.
“Everyone at A&M should have an equal chance.”
In other business, the Senate:
• heard the first reading of a bill that would
require the Office of Admission and Records
and the Fiscal Department to allow students to
charge their transcript fees to their student ac
counts.
• swore in new officers Gary Buffington, Ju
dicial Board chairperson; Tracey McAllister, ex

“The Center for Disease Control
tells doctors to be fully clothed when
exposed to a person s bodily fluids
yet they say it is safe to have sex with
only a small piece of latex for protec
tion,” she said.
“It’s wrong to give kids con
doms and tell them it is going to
save their life. It’s irresponsible and
unfair for anybody with the posi
tion like the schools have to give
the false hope of safety by handing
out condoms.”
She said the liability problem
in high schools is too much to
mess with.
“In public schools, teachers can
not give out aspirin because one
child had an allergic reaction and
there was a lawsuit,” she said. “I
don’t think the school should take
on the responsibility of handing
out condoms.”
