Because we
ourselves.”
Morris said the solution lies in
community outreach programs to
talk to gang members and give
children an alternative to gangs.
Sister Fudia Torray, a junior
pre-law and government major at
the University of Texas, spoke
about the role of the African-
American woman in supporting
the march.
"Sisters stay home,” Torray
said. “Keep your children home.
You be the teacher.”
The march was called by Louis
Farrakhan and the Nation of Is
lam, Torray said, but is really de
signed to bring all people who be
lieve in God together, whatever
name they call him by.
“This is not a Muslim thing;
this is not a Farrakhan thing,”
she said. “This is a black thing.”
African-Americans should not
avoid going to the march for fear of
being labeled an anti-Semite, be
cause the march is one of atone
ment for all religions, she said.
Morris said other events are
being planned for a similar rally
Oct. 16 at A&M, but the real
lessons deal with more than just
one day’s activities.
The speech was sponsored by
the Nation of Islam, the A&M
Pan-Hellenic Council and the
Department of Multicultural
Services.

someone else somewhere around the world.”
Hartman said the stories and experiences shared
by former students are also a part of working with
the Association of Former Students.
“The best part of the internship was working
with the Aggie network outside of the College
Station campus,” she said.
Hartman said Silver Taps and Aggie Muster have
always been her favorite traditions at A&M, but the
internship made her realize her work was being uti
lized by people all over the nation.
Wilkinson said the association stays in con
tact with 400 Muster committees around the
world including ones in Saudi Arabia, Hong
Kong, Paris, Russia and Australia.
Every Muster tradition is a little different.
Wilkinson said outside of the United States,
some Musters consist of informal picnics.
Some congregate in small groups of six or eight
and have dinner at a restaurant and talk about
A&M; some have 1,000 people with live buglers.
“Everyone is different, and their Muster cele
brations have different tones,” Greebon said.
“The internship gives you a unique and different
viewpoint on Muster.”

Dr. James Kracht, Univ®
ty liaison to Sommerville.j;

professor, said he believesk
uI ties of both A&M and par.
pating schools benefit as well
“We’re both learning
from each other,” Krat!
said. “Their classroom e;:
riences are very integral
and very applied.”
Kracht said the progr:
benefits students who wo,
usually only learn in I//
University classroom,
“Many times, studei
just don’t have the knw
edge of how the classroom
ally works,” he said. “Ti
don’t know which techniqi
are really effective
which ones aren’t.”
Cooner said that form
students, the program tail
some adjustment.
“It’s very demanding,’
said. “They are not used to
demands of children all daj,
well as dealing with their
course work.”
Smith said the most dffi
aspect of the program is
students do not take course
the A&M campus.
“It’s just weird,” she
“It’s been difficult to get
to. but 1 think the prograr
definitely worth it.”
