He said A&M’s Jordan Insti tute for International Aware ness is interested in helping them find a speaker. Emesih and Oehl will also appear on the KBTX-TV morn ing show to promote the Rwan dan cause.

I’m not complaining, though.” West was elected Chairman of the Board of Regents May 12, after Ross Margraves resigned. West will serve as chairman until Feb ruary. Her term as a Regent expires in 1997, and she said she will not accept another term. “Anybody who commits to being a Re gent at any university system commits a great deal — time, money, their business,” she said. “It’s a great responsibility.” One of the responsibilities West has had to take during her tenure as chair man is facing scrutiny caused by univer sity scandals. The Regents have been criticized for excessive spending as shown in a System audit this summer. Five Texas A&M employees were in dicted, and four others were charged this summer for tampering with government records after describing purchases of al cohol as purchases of food and beverages on state vouchers. West said she supports the employees who were indicted. “Those people who were indicted on the alcohol charges had no business be ing indicted,” she said. “There should have been rules set up for those procedures.” Regent member Bill Clayton said he thinks West will be able to do what is best for A&M. “I think she is a great lady,” Clayton said. “She is all business, no fooling around." West said most of A&M’s problems are growing pains. “The size of this university has explod ed,” she said. “With growth also comes problems.” She said that the University will be come stronger by having dealt with these problems. “When we get out of these problems we are in, I think we’ll be stronger,” she said. “You learn and grow through adversity. West said she is not a typical chairman, but she does want what is best for A&M. “I’m a woman,” she said. “I’m not an attorney. I don’t have an agenda, except that I want what is best for the Universi ty.” GUARANTY BANK JCI McDonald FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE CALL 260-2660 FOR NEW SCHEDULE CHECK THE BATTALION EACH WEEK ON MONDAY AND THURSDAY.
