clubs,” he said. “I think if ‘hap
py hour’ is banned, business
would slow down until every
body got used to it, but in the
long run, it will help everybody
make money and cut down on
competition.”
Scott Keesler, manager of The
Tap, also thinks the ban would
not affect business.
“We would just have to
change the way we run specials,
and it would definitely knock off
competition,” he said.
“People would go to bars for
the atmosphere rather than for
the drinks, and I think our busi
ness would pick up because we
have a great atmosphere,”
Keesler said.
Brown said MADD’s only con
cern in advocating the change is
reducing drunk driving.
“We have been accused of be
ing prohibitionists, but anybody
who knows anything about
MADD knows that we are only
interested in saving lives,” he
said.
“If people drink, that’s their
business, but when they drive
and put people’s lives in danger,
then it’s our business.”
Brown said that if people
have half-price drinks as an in
centive, they will drink three to
nine times more than normal
and then they will drive.
“If banning ‘happy hours’
saves one life, it’s well worth it,”
Brown said.
“Happy hour” is currently
banned in five states: Okla
homa, Massachusetts, Kansas,
Arkansas and Illinois.
“These states are doing just
fine,” Brown said. “They
haven’t suffered withdrawal
symptoms or culture shock.”

uninterrupted, independent supply of power to run to the
center, alleviating any problems with power outages that
may pose a problem with the current computer setup,”
Davidson said. “Now students won’t have to worry about
losing an important assignment or paper while at the
center.”
Dinkel refers to this independent power system as a
‘stand-alone-island’, prepared to accommodate a variety
of students’ needs, ranging from registration worries to
graduation decisions.
“Currently, registration is run off the University’s
main power system, which has shut down at inopportune
times in the past due to power failure,” he said. “The
new system will alleviate any worries students may have
when trying to get the classes they need. Also, by incor
porating the University’s auditing system, students will
always know their graduation status.”
Wendy Vinzant, a junior environmental design major,
said she thinks the expansion of the Teague Building is
going to be helpful to the students.
“Right now, many computer facilities are difficult to
find around campus,” Vinzant said. “By having one loca
tion, many problems will be avoided.”

Steps have been taken to ensure

“This year, they are going to
