Continued from Page 1 hold dear,” Kilpatrick said. “Plus, it improves communication be tween the students and faculty.” The committee is also work ing with the Department of Mul ticultural Services ambassador program to train personnel to give tours during minority stu dent conferences. Another large project. The Beck Street Delinquency Preven tion Program, is under the super vision of Casey Reeves, campus and community executive a junior community health major. The program, a division of the Boys and Girls Club, is designed to pro vide underprivileged children in a Bryan housing project with posi tive role models. Hospitality members, or Hos- pitables, can volunteer as much time as they want as coaches, tutors and instructors. “The kids are there, Monday through Friday, 3 p.m. to 8 p.m.,” Reeves said. “Hospitables can go there as often as they like. We’ve been told, ‘The kids that are the hardest to love, need it the most.’ This is a great opportunity, and it needs to be done.” Reeves said the committee is trying to adopt a local nursing home. Hospitables will act as pen pals with the nursing home residents. If the committee succeeds with the nursing home, Reeves said she wants to provide inter action between the children in the Beck Street Program and the residents of the home through visits and special events such as Christmas caroling. “Hopefully, the children will learn respect for the elderly and more about their lifestyles,” she said. “Plus, it would be wonder ful for the residents to be around the kids.” The committee will also par ticipate in Habitat for Humanity and a “Name the Babies” fund raiser for the Brazos Maternal and Child Health Clinic prenatal care program. Heather Armand, children’s programs executive and a junior education and disciplinary stud ies major, said the project, which involves 300 children at the com plex, will use members serving as mentors spending 30 minutes to an hour with a child. The members will also present drug awareness and poison control programs and invite the children to Halloween and Easter parties. “We want to get more into the community and help the areas that don’t have^ resources,” Ar mand said. “They are so eager for anything we have to offer. They need this interaction with us." Armand said the committee is also participating in Head Start, a government-funded program for school-age children. This venture will not only included Hospita bles, but hopefully other organi zations and groups on campus. “We want to take all different committees to the children, CA- MAC, the Black Awareness Committee, the Literary Arts Society and athletes,” Armand said. “It means a lot to show oth ers that they can make it and to give them hope.” Brad Lockwood, special events executive and a junior marketing major, is responsible for a majority of the hosting function of MSC Hospitality and organizes other events to pro mote unity and familiarize with other committees. One of Lockwood’s goals is to improve last years’ MSC Games. The tournament-style games, in the spring, will pit Student Gov ernment. committees against^ committees in an effort co-programming and unity The special events commit; is also expanding its hosting ties by hosting such events the President’s Buffet and Yell Leader’s Reunion. “It is an honor for ustol asked to host these events, it’s neat for our member; meet d i fferent people," Lot; wood said 'Phe Hospitality commit^ has also planned bilingual pi pet programs, a mystery n theater with NOVA, new her dinners and a 25thIIS Hospitality Reunion.

First, professional associ ations, such as the American Insti tute of Architects, need to refocus on the social aspects of their work. “Planners don’t plan, and archi tects don’t lead,” he said. “By aggres sive posturing on the part of a num ber of us, we can say something that no individual can’t say.” Secondly, architecture schools need to restructure their curriculum to make students into leaders who get involved in the community by serving on city councils and other planning organizations, Gantt said. Finally, architects should get out more and see the world around them, he said. “My firm is designing buildings with a greater sense of understanding and insight,” he said. “My hope is that you will get involved beyond the drafting boards.” ..MSC BLACK AWARENESS COMMITTEE ..

Experiments Continued from Page 2 had to do them.” Weaver said she has completed her experi ments, which included filling out scantrons, analytical games and surveys over friendships and values. “I really didn’t learn much from them,” she said. “The experiment with the surveys made you look at the work place, people around you and what you wanted to be like. “I guess that kind of experiment could be beneficial in real life if you really take and look at yourself.” Derek Dawes, a freshman computerei neering major, said he recently signed up! experiment for only men. “I’m kind of excited," Dawes said. “1 want find out what they’re going to do to us." Dawes said he does not expect the expe ments to help him with his classwork, but still wants to take part in the experiments “I’m really interested in how the works,” he said. “I don’t think the experime: will do much good for me, but it will researchers. They need research subjects we re here." Tues Septeml T Editorials of the edi the opini Texas A
