“He has implemented long term policies
and strategies,” Kwa said. “As a Singaporian, I
felt that he did a tremendous job in Singapore. ”
Kwa, who was born in Singapore and
moved to the United States in 1982, said Yew
was influential in integrating the English lan
guage into the educational system, establish
ing open-door policies for trade and technol
ogy and encouraging entrepreneurs to look
for opportunities outside of Singapore.
“Yew is now helping to build up the infor
mational and financial infrastructures to bring
Singapore into the 21st century,” Kwa said.
Yew addressed the importance of technol
ogy in the information age.
“[Today] there is no such thing as being
out of touch,” Yew said. “That makes it a dif
ferent world. You can control your house,
your car and your microwave. The transfor
mations people are envisioning, to a person
at my age, are mind boggling. I
the impact will be on humandviliaj

“The president of Petro-
Com called me in late Febru
ary with a deal,” Catala said.
“A&M would send a group of
students to New Orleans dur
ing spring break. At the head
quarters would be all the com
ponents of the earth station,
and the students would have
one week to set it and con
struct the station. If we met
the deadline, the equipment
would be ours. We finished
with two hours to spare.”
The satellite has been ready
for A&M since May, but be
cause of scheduling conflicts
and weather conditions un
suitable to transport the equip
ment, the arrival had been
postponed until Wednesday. A
group of students will be
working throughout the se
mester to prepare the equip
ment for classroom use. The
system is projected to be ready
for students as eaily
spring semester.

Contest
Continued from Page 1
Edwards proposed that the recruit
ment of high-school students be split
into two categories, which are the
freshman and sophomores, and then
the juniors and seniors.
“We should have recruitment seminars
that give information to freshmen and
sophomores about prerequisites to gain
admission into the University and schol
arship seminars, while the juniors and se
niors can leam about the credit system and
time-management skills,” Edwards said.
Edwards said even though the Uni
versity can not specifically give minor
ity scholarships, outside resources can.
“We need to find ways to get schol
arships named in honor of Black and
Hispanic graduates from different insti
tutions who have had successful ca
reers,” Edwards said.
The winner of the contest was
Michelle Wallace, a junior speech com
munications major. Wallace proposed
the idea of an informative campaign.
“Money is not alwaystheas
Wallace said.
Wallace said the Universip
publicize itself to potential tec:;]
“The University needstoi®
themselves,” Wallace said,
need to introduce themselvesl
their most prized possessions::'
