We’ve got new people in place in the president’s and chan cellor’s offices.” Brooke Leslie, student body president, said she does not think the media coverage of A&M events will affect the legislature. “Anytime Texas A&M is beaten up in the media, it’s go ing to hurt,” Leslie said. “If the average Texan sees their money and tax dollars go to a school they don’t have faith in, it will hurt us. Hopefully, it won’t be that big of a player.” Leslie will testify in front of the legislature on behalf of A&M. She is working with Student Government’s Legislative Study Group, conducting research to decide the best strategy for A&M in preparing for the leg islative session. Leslie said the biggest issues facing A&M will be funding cuts and tuition increases. “Those are the main issues,” she said. “Everything else relates back to them.” Minority faculty recruitment and retention could also be a fac tor for A&M, she said. Gaston said the legislature of ten considers a school’s student and faculty retention programs. Gaston said it is hard to antici pate the outcome of the session. “We were told to request no more than what we had received last year,” he said. “We compared what we had and what we need, and there was a big difference. “I hope the budgetary climate will change between now and the time the legislature convenes in January.” Thursday • October J The University requests for funding inj? ton said officials fr will appear in front oik committees shortly group convenes, probaHt ruary or March.

They spend thirty hours a week after classes taking care of the horses, and the juniors take turns coming out every morn ing at 6:00 to feed the horses.” Watson said that since trips are stressful on the horses, only the seniors are allowed to spend the nights in hotels. “The juniors get to sleep in the trucks,” Watson said, “and the sophomores sleep on hay bales near the horses.” Watson said he is afraid that many current members of the Cavalry will not be able to afford its costs next year. “We used to have a $55,000 budget from the Universi ty,” Watson said, “but starting next year, we have to be entirely self-sufficient. That means we either have to find donors or everyone will have to sponsor themselves for about $1,000. “We’re looking for someone to sponsor us for a year or so. It’s a hard task to get letters to old Cav members, but we’re scouring the country.” The Cavalry has canceled two trips originally sched uled for this year to save money. Instead, the Cavalry is traveling to Oklahoma to per form in the American Quarter Horse Association World Show in November. Camp Continued from Page 2 “As of right now, I will be concen trating on Fish Camp,” he said, “but that doesn’t mean it won’t affect other student activities.” Reber said he has gone through the filed reports of the incident. “I’ve picked out names of people in the reports and will talk to them,” he said. Southerland said he has had one verbal meeting with those who will be talked to, and Reber was present. “We went over basic information and what the objectives are and are not,” he said. Reber said he will talk to the peo ple in the reports and listen to sug gestions on practices and policies. Southerland said the review is ex pected to produce recommendations for the organization. “We want to find out what the policies and procedures in place are and what we can learn from this inci dent,” he said. Theresa Kolker, director)! Camp, said the organization viewing its procedures. “Every year, we lookaton cies and regulations andevw we do,” Kolker said. “Welooii what we can do to improve Camp. It’s something thatri constantly discussing.” Southerland said the row have a positive affect on dent activities, not just Fish Can) “Whatever the recommend; of the review are,” he said,‘w relate to those activities ando4 if they carry implication! other groups.” Southerland said therevin not automatically pointing ail at anyone. “I always use the word rm stead of investigation,” he said 1 are not reviewing just thingsspi cally related to the Fish Camp dent.
