When the University investiga
tion is over, the case will be re
ferred to the Interfraternity Coun
cil Judicial Board. If an individual
is responsible for hazing, the de
partment of Student Life’s Stu
dent Judicial Services will handle
the case.
Price said the suspension pro
hibits the fraternity from being
recognized by the University, us
ing A&M facilities for events or at
taching the University name to
their fraternity.
Two hazing incidents have oc
curred at A&M during the 1996-97
school year.
In November, Kappa Alpha fra
ternity was disbanded until 1999,
after a pledge suffered bodily injury
at a Kappa Alpha rally on Oct. 14,
1996, in Robertson County.
On Dec. 13,1996, Corps of Cadets
Company B-2 violated hazing and
drinking policies at an off-campus
party where alcohol was served to
minors and a senior allegedly struck
a freshman. The company was sub
sequently disbanded.
Jason Jordan, former Interfrater-
nity Council president andaseti
marketing major, said he thiii
everyone agrees that hazingisdu
aging and people need to adn
there is a hazing problem so it
be solved.
"Now, it’s a matter of'let's
making headlines and start
solutions’,"Jordan said.
Jordan said members

but might continue to breakm
themselves.

“It gives them somebody else to look up to, which
goes back to the knowledge thing,” Moreland said.
Wheatfall said the fact that so many black enter
tainers and athletes are highly regarded is a result of the
unintentional conditioning.
“We have channeled them (blacks) in a one way
track,” Wheatfall said.
Some events during Black History Month, such as
a Texas Black Business Leaders Reception on Feb. 7
and the African Marketplace on Feb. 14, will have a
business edge.
Stephenie Rhodes, committee adviser, said the

work and effort, I could make a dif

about,” she said.
Interacting with students has
been one of the most enjoyable
parts of serving on the Board of Re

Being a regent is not Brisco’s full
time job, but she said it has required
a great deal of her time.
“It has been work that I have
done, because I’m proud of what
our system has been able to accom
plish and I’m optimistic about what
we can become,” she said.
Brisco said A&M is an important
state institution and, as a Texan, she
wants to continue to see the A&M
System grow stronger.
