Students, faculty invited
to meet with Jenkins
Students, faculty and staff members

Jenkins is the third of four candidates
for the University's vacant executive
vice president and provost position.
Parties remain split on
Medicare, budget issues
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republi
cans and Democrats in Congress are
reading the same polls these days but
drawing opposite conclusions, point
ing the way to an unusually sharp split
on GOP legislation to overhaul
Medicare and balance the budget.
The poll numbers appear to show
fading public support for the GOP
agenda. A recent survey taken by the
Times Mirror Center for the People and
the Press reported 50 percent of Amer
icans disapprove of policies advocated
by Republicans in Congress, while 36
percent approve.

with refurbishing the horse
shoe section at the north end of
Kyle Field.
A possible phase four would in
stall an additional horseshoe sec
tion at the south end of Kyle Field.
Groff said all proposals except
the first phase are tentative.
“Nothing has been cast in stone
at this point,” he said. “The only
approval we’ve gotten so far is to
continue with phase one.”
Bob Feille, E-2 commanding
officer and a senior biomedical
science major, expressed con
cern about the effect of the ex
pansion of the horseshoe section
on Reveilles’ graves.
Feille asked that the mascots’
graves remain untouched.
“I would ask that more con
sideration should be given to
that grave site,” he said.
Other concerns raised includ
ed the loss of the tunnel under
the horseshoe for band practice
and Midnight Yell.
Groff assured the students that
every effort will be made to take
their wishes into consideration.
“My door is always open,”
he said.

Andreski told the court that when he asked
Shamburger if he was sorry for his actions,
Shamburger did not answer the question.
The prosecution then shifted to forensic evidence.

tickets and the same cars come back and park,
they will probably be towed.”
The spaces marked as legitimate parking on the
A&M campus are the only spaces that students
can consider “safe,” Williams said.
“We can’t put signs up everywhere,” he said.
“We try to put up as few signs as possible. Signs
are an eyesore.”
Students who park on the edges of campus are
normally students who do not want to try to park
on campus for fear PTTS officers might match
their cars with their past tickets, Williams said.
"Normally the cars that park in remote areas
are cars that really don’t want to come onto the
campus proper,” he said.
Usually, only those cars blocking traffic or those
with a long list of citations will be towed, Williams said.

measure and the Senate for
wasting time.
Neely Young, an agriculture
senator and a junior agricultur
al development major, said the
issue is not whether the sena
tors want to agree with the pro
posed three-hour multicultural-
ism requirement.
Walker said the Truth in Rep
resentation Bill has been influ
enced by the debate over multi-
culturalism and urged the Sen
ate not to play political games.
“Take the politics out of this,”
he said. “They've been played, and
they’ve been played too much.”
Toby Boenig, student body
president and a senior agricul
tural major, said the Senate is
not fulfilling its responsibility to
represent the student body.
“We’re saying 42,000 students
have no opinion,” Boenig said.
“That is not right. You know
what your constituents want. No
opinion is not acceptable.”
Rusty Adams, an on-campus
southside senator, said the Sen
ate’s opinion is not the same as
the student body’s opinion.
“I didn’t think it was the opin
ion of the majority then,” Adams
said, “and I don’t think it is now.”
