overtones of the message of black
separatism undermine the posi
tive strides that the Civil Rights
Movement made.
Drayer also noted that people
of all backgrounds, including
Jews, participated in the Civil
Rights Movement.
“You (X), have a backwards
message,” he said, “I think you
are ignoring the reality of what
things can be. There are lessons
to be learned from the past so we
can move forward.”
X responded to Drayer’s
statement by saying that it is
not possible for him to acknowl
edge the similarities between
the struggles of blacks and the
struggles of Jews because Jews
have owned slaves and op
pressed blacks economically.
African-American students
need a firm knowledge of self to
go along with the education
they receive at A&M, X said, in
order to effectively question
and protest unfavorable ad
ministrative actions.
“Don’t just protest; they’re
used to that,” he said. “Shut
the campus down; shut the
school and shut the football
games down. Come together as
a family.”
Danny McCray, a senior sociol-
Whoopstock

junior psychology major, said
many students do not know
about Whoopstock or under
stand what its purpose is.
“Whoopstock is for every
body,” she said. “One of my fa
vorite things about Whoopstock
is that you go out there and see
all hues of skin, but it isn’t an
event that just minority stu
dents attend.

that affect campus life and a
large number of students, such
as Student Government or the
Muster Committee, are consid
ered stronger applicants than
students who are involved in
special interest groups.
The selection committee
comprises 14 students and six
staff members. The students on
the committee are usually cho
sen from the Student Govern
ment and are past spirit award
winners.
The committee accepts applica
tions at the beginning of the
spring semester.
The awards are given to five
freshmen, 10 sophomores, 15 ju
niors, 20 seniors and two gradu
ate students.
David Chumbley, a spirit
award recipient and sophomore
agricultural development major,
said he applied for the award be-
ogy major and member of the
football and track teams, said X
makes unfair demands of athletes
by asking them to stop participat
ing in athletic programs.
McCray said it is not feasible
to ask students to walk out of
classes and not play the sports
they were brought to A&M to
play.
“Certain people are born with
gifts — some academic and others
"He spoke the truth,
even though it may have
hurt people to hear the
truth."

athletic,” he said. “You can’t ex
pect me to give up my gifts with
out something to fall back on.”
Although some students were
offended by what X said, overall,
the message was well received.
Michael Broussard, a junior fi
nance major, said there are not
many people who would say the
things that X does.
“He spoke the truth, even
though it may have hurt people to
hear the truth,” he said. “I ad
mire his tenacity. He isn’t the
spokesperson for all African-
Americans, but he is honestly de
scribing a lot of the feelings that
exist on this campus.”
her of a certain club or organi
zation to come. Just come out
and have fun.”
Schmidt said the main reason
Whoopstock is held is to cele
brate differences while recogniz
ing similarities.
Whoopstock T-shirts, a major
fund-raiser for the event, are on
sale in the MSC for $10.
In case of rain, the festival
will be held at The Grove or G.
Rollie White Coliseum.

cause he is involved in many or
ganizations that represent the en
tire University.
Receiving the award, he said,
symbolizes that he was willing to
go “the extra mile” to fulfill his
commitments.
Chumbley is a Student Senate
for the College of Agriculture, a
member of the Muster Committee
and a dorm officer. He also served
as a Fish Camp counselor and a
Fish Aide.
“I was real surprised, real hon
ored,” Chumbley said. “I’m just
glad to be a part of it.”
The Buck Weirus Spirit
Award was created by the Asso
ciation of Former Students in
1982 to develop a recognition
program in honor of Richard
“Buck” Weirus, Class of ’42.
Weirus was the executive di
rector of the Association of For
mer Students from 1964 to
1980. During his term as execu
tive director, active member
ship in the Association of For
mer students increased from
30,000 to 100,000 members.
