the committee, with Sens. Amy Magee, Alice
Gonzales, Lisa Travieso and Jason Schultz fill- *
ing the remaining four positions.
Reed, Student Body President Carl Baggett
and Student Services Chair Eliot Kerlin will
serve as ex-officio task force members without
voting privileges.
The diverse make-up of the committee,
Reed said, allows it to make informed decisions
and utilize several different points of view. The
members draw from a wide range of student
life perspectives, including both on- and off-
campus residents, students who have classes
on West Campus and several different majors.
Reed said the task force will bring results
to campus.
“If we can do anything that will make stu
dents feel more safe, then we should do
that,” he said. “Even if it’s small things, they
can make a difference.”
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Throwing himself confi
dently into the fall campaign, President Clinton
celebrated Labor Day with a huge battleground-
state rally Monday and fresh attacks on Bob
Dole’s tax-cutting plans.
Before enthusiastic crowds in Milwaukee and
De Pere, Clinton laid out his blueprint for the
21st century and said Dole’s $548 billion tax-cut
ting plan would balloon interest rates and make
mortgages, credit cards and car loans more
expensive for the middle-class.
Clinton said the country simply cannot afford
it and taxpayers would pay for their tax cuts in
the end. “Would you go to the bank yourself and
borrow to give yourself a tax cut?” he asked a
friendly and largely partisan crowd of at least
25,000 on the banks of the Fox River in De Pere.
“Nooooooooooo!” they shouted back.
“Then why would you hire someone to do it
for you?” Clinton responded, issuing a not-so-
veiled slap at Dole.
In St. Louis, Dole characterized himself as a
"bridge to lower taxes" and said his tax proposal
— including an across-the-board 15 percent cut
in the income tax rate — amounts to “one big
plan (that) gives Americans back more of their
hard-earned money.”
“Anybody here doesn’t want a tax cut, just
raise your hand, we’ll try to single you out,” Dole
challenged supporters at a rally in the shadows
of the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. “No!” the parti
san crowd roared back.
Dole and running mate Jack Kemp called
Clinton’s bridge to the 21st century — a phrase
the president has used frequently — “a toll
bridge” for which “every inch of the way, you pay
and pay and pay.”
But Clinton’s attacks on the Dole tax plan res
onated with the Labor Day crowd that had
packed a city park to hear the president in a state
that is a bastion of swing voters. Clinton won
Wisconsin in 1992, and polls show him running
farther ahead in the state than nationally.
An ABC News poll conducted Wednesday
and Thursday showed Clinton had edged
upward as the Democratic National
Convention ended, with 54 percent of regis
tered voters preferring him in one tracking poll
— 20 percentage points over Dole.
History also is on his side: In 60 years of
Gallup polls, every presidential candidate with a

Student Government will take
advantage of the new opportunity.
“The problem is that people
who don’t get into Student
Government their first year end up
hating Student Government,” she
said. “They get turned down and
they don’t want to be a part of it.
“This committee is for those
individuals who have been turned
off. We are going to open it up to as
many people as we can and then
give them projects.”
Student Government, Baggett
said, does not utilize all of the
students.
“There ought to be something

lose those people. There are too

say, ‘Forget it, I’m done.’”

and he has an idea to further
such a goal.
“There are a lot of minorities
who apply to A&M and are
accepted, but the catch rate is
very low,” he said.
“We are going to create a
committee and we are personal
ly going to call each of those stu
dents and tell them they are wel

have the resources at A&M.”
Baggett credits his staff with
most of the new ideas. He chose his
staff members, he said, for their
ability to grow both as individuals
and to help the student body.
“You get the people excited
and set them off in the right
direction, and then they grow as
a person,” he said. “Our goal
ought to be that all the vice pres

students should not feel intimidat

“Dr. Bowen is a very friendly
person and was happy to see me,”
Gordon said. “He answered all my
questions and even told me about
some of the jobs available to people
with my degree.”
Gordon said that during his 45-

gained a better understanding of
policy issues.
“After he (Bowen) explained why
