Forum Continued from Page 1 “You may not know this, but there have been over 200 candidates for president in each of the last four elections,” he said. “We have a com mittee to study these and determine which are viable candidates. “The primary question we ask ourselves is do they have a legiti mate chance at being the next pres ident of the United States.” Fahrenkopf said that in the last election there was considerable de bate within the commission on whether or not to include indepen dent candidate Ross Perot. “Eventually we decided to in clude him,” he said. “And looking back, I think that was the right de cision.” The next election will likely fea ture a third party candidate, Fahrenkopf said, and the commis sion will determine whether to in clude them based on the candidate’s national following. Another issue the commission will face is the format, which Fahrenkopf said can have a great impact on the educational value of the debate. A panel of reporters interviewing the candidate was thrown out, as was the idea of using network an chors, he said. “With a panel of reporters, if one reporter asks a question, the next reporter wants to show how good they are,” he said. “And it has been our view that some of those anchors try to compete with the candidates.” Fahrenkopf said the 1992 cam paigns used a variety of formats, in cluding a town-hall style meeting with randomly-selected uncommit ted voters. “Some of the people in Washing ton think. What do private citizens have to do with this?”’ he said. “But we thought it worked out all right.” Kirk said no formats are set for 1996 at this point, but there will probably be a small number of de bates, each dealing witli a variety of topics, rather than focusing on one particular topic per debate. Kirk said the commission evalu ates its results by setting up focus groups consisting of citizens who watch the debate and discuss what they learned from them. “Almost all of the people in the focus groups said that by watching the debates they learned something new about the candidates,” he said. Currently, 41 communities and university campuses are bidding to hold the 1996 round of debates. Fvan Zimmerman, Thf Bahwi Kiddin' around Whitney Elder plays outside Bizzell Hall.

With a TIF district, there would be no assessment or tax increase, and local property taxes will be used exclusively for local projects. Pobiner outlined many pro jects that ranged from short- to long-term actions. Some pro jects included streets being re paired and sidewalks widened with more lighting for safety. Local business owners who are in danger of losing there businesses were also at the meeting. Tara Sopasakis, owner of Burger Boy and Aggieland Tu toring Services, said she is still upset because her businesses and others are not located on the map of the future Northgate. “We have been told that they will not leave us out, but where are we on the map?” Sopasakis said. “We designed our businesses especially for the Northgate area, and I don’t want to relocate.” Other small businesses have had trouble because they said it seems like their busi nesses have already been des ignated as parking lots. Tami Selbi, owner of the U’R grocery store, said she lost a prospective buyer for her business because the owner of her land told the buyer it would soon be owned by the city and become a parking lot. “I was selling my business so I could join my husband,” Selbi said. “I had a deposit check from the buyer when they were told my store would be a parking lot.” Selbi said she is stuck be cause they have invested thou sands of dollars in her store, and she can not just walk away from that investment. Another community meet ing will take place in a few weeks to discuss more details about the revitalization project before the finals plans are vot ed on by the College Station City Council. Elections Continued from Page 1 engineering major, “voted on names that I heard or signs that I saw.” Like many freshmen, Smyer knew little about any of the can didates and found the voting process to be a prime example of “how people vote when they don’t know who they are voting for.” Scott Kulle, a freshman gen eral studies major and a mem ber of the Corps of Cadets, said candidates who were Corps members made more of an effort to reach their classmates. “From my perspective, I saw a lot more of the Corps members trying to make themselves known,” Kulle said. Many freshmen eagerly voiced their disagreements with the voting process. Emily Redman, a computer engineering major, said she wants to change the process. “I don’t agree with it,” Red man said. “We don’t have an; information about the people*! are voting for. It just doesr.; make sense.” Greg Krueger, a freshi: physics major, said the lacki! information about the candi dates can discourage freshiw from voting. “You have no idea whattlit candidates stand for, what they’re going to do for youtr why they even have theseil fices,’ Krueger said. Cochvan said studentsan better informed of the platform for other student body elections. For freshman elections, thoujt candidates have not bet: around long enough to fora: late ideas or platforms. Melanie Conner, a freshiw. political science major whom for a Senate position, said that the new senators should estat lish contact with their stituents. “I hope that the winnerssta; in touch with the freshman don’t forget who they are repre senting,” Conner said.
