We do what we can with enforcement and crime preven tion education to help students understand the affects of alcohol and help them make better choices.” A&M groups including Aggies Against Drunk Dri ving, Students Teaching on Prevention and Peer 1 Ed ucators in the Department of Student Life aim to in crease the awareness and prevention of alcohol abuse on campus. The Bonfire Alcohol Awareness Committee promotes an alcohol-free Bonfire and al cohol abuse safety to the campus and Bryan-College Station community. The Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse Columbia University in New York City reported that! cohol is associated with missed classes and low grade-point ratios. Researchers at the center said ale hoi is a factor in about 41 percent of academic pro 1 lems and 28 percent of cases of student dropout. The center also said alcohol can lead to crimiit problems on college campuses including rapes, va dalism and suicide. The study said 90 percent of rap occurred while either the victim or attacker wereu der the influence of alcohol. According to the Texas Department ofTranspon. tion, alcohol is the prime contributor to motorvehii and other unintended deaths. Nearly half of all traffic deaths in Texas each year: related to alcohol. More than 1,400 people were kill in traffic crashes last year due to drinking and drivir the department said. 1, Survivor Continued from Page 1 Wachsberg said in Febru ary 1945, he and 74 other people were loaded in an open cattle car on a train that would move them to camp Leitmeritz. During the seven day trip, only five of the original 75 people on the cattle car survived. “What we did was throw them (the dead people) over, we needed the space,” he said. “Then more people died. I was on the train for six days and seven nights without any food or water. We had lots of clothes to keep us warm because those people that died, we kept the clothes and put them on ourselves.” From Leitmeritz, Wachs berg said he was moved to camp Theresienstadt in April 1945. On May 9, 1945 the war was over, and the prisoners at Theresienstadt were liberated. Wachsberg said the day of his liberation was the most beautiful day in his life. He said he took a Russ ian truck to Vraskow, Czechoslovakia, where the Citizens of the town recog nized him as a prisoner of the concentration camps. The citizens burned his clothes for him. “If I live another 50 years, I will never forget the name of the village or the people in the village,” he said. “They took care of me better than any mother can take care of any baby. They brought me back to a normal person.” He said the citizens of the town also gave him money and put him on a train to Chrzanow. Wachsberg said most of the people that survived were from the ages 17 to 28. “Children never had a chance, they were instantly sent to the crematoriums or to labs for research,” he said. He said those who were 35 and older had little chance of survival. Task Force Timisl ieniM| the hi and nl “Children never had a chance; they were instantly sent to the crematoriums or to the labs for research.” SOL WACHSBERG HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR Flora Wachsberg, Wachs- berg’s wife, said that her hus band did not speak about his experiences in the Holocaust until 1983 when former Presi dent Ronald Reagan asked Holocaust survivors to tell their stories. “We’ve been married 33 years and he never talked to me about [the Holocaust] un til 1983,” she said. “He (Rea gan) said that if they (sur vivors) didn’t talk, their story would be forgotten.” Continued from Page 1 "Looking at the environment as a wholf we really need to have an understandingi ^jes the problems before we move to recoil ^ e i £ mendations,” she said. "We can’t say thatilx Texas A&M environment ends with tfe boundaries of the campus. It extends inn the (Bryan-College Station) community." Sayre said the task force wants to pro mote a greater sense of self-responsibiliiij among students who choose to drink. I; "Prevention [of alcohol abuse] is general ly more successful than treatment,” she said “I think previous strengths have been anin-' terest in taking preventative measures oi educational issues. Texas A&M was aneark proponent of early prevention.” Dr. Dennis Reardon, the coordinator of.Alco-i hoi and Drug Education programs, said that greater efforts to prevent alcohol abuse has con- tributed to the decline in alcohol abuse at fire and a reduction in the number ofMinorsk Possession (M.I.Ps) issued in recent years. "We need to continue removing alcohol from the traditions,” Reardon said. “The tra ditions at Texas A&M are great. Alcohol di minishes [the value] of these traditions." However, Reardon said drinking remains a problem among A&M students. “Students say the right things,” he said. “But I do not think that they have put that into action completely.” In relation to students’ health, Dr. Janet Kreuger, a task force member and a staff physician at the A.P Beutel Health Center, said students place their physical health at risk when they abuse alcohol. , | Kreuger said moderate drinking and not p elimination of drinking is the foundation to || ensuring a healthier lifestyle. “The task force aims to reduce alcohol ’tainan abuse,” she said. “We are not tryingfo cutout pas bac| alcohol use.” ‘DcAWC'E c4‘RTS SOCTET}] PRESENTS 1997 FALL SHOW NOVEMBER 15, 1997 - 2:00 p.m. RUDDER THEATER $4.00 - Students $5.00 Non-students • £ £3.9?
