DELUNA Women Continued from Page 1 Yennello said as the number of women faculty increases, incidents of discrimination will decrease. “The University has come a long way in terms of women, but perhaps this indicates they have a long way to go,” she said. “The more we get women into senior positions, the more it will change things." Dr. Jane Close Conoley, dean of Ed ucation, is the only female dean at A&M. “The small number of women fac ulty make it likely that they would feel institutional discrimination,” she said. “I’ve been impressed with the very effective, aggressive work on the part of the dean of Faculty, President and Provost for their support of women’s studies.” The survey also found that white female faculty are the group most likely to report incidents to .a Univer sity authority.

Kelly Garrity, Deputy Corps Commander and senior journalism major, said that the event was brief and simple, and was a chance to reflect oh the sacrifices that others had made. Garrity thanked everyone that at tended, then a prayer was said. Ma jor General M.T. “Ted” Hopgood, Jr, Commandant of the Corps then spoke. He said that many of the op portunities made possible today come from the sacrifices of patri ots. Many of these patriots are vet erans, and in turn many of these veterans are Aggies. Garrity said that the brief and simplistic nature of the wreath cer emony was symbolic of the day. “This is a moment of personal re flection,” Garrity said. “This is our way of taking a moment to remember peo ple who made the ultimate sacrifice.” Continued from Page 1 Brooks said there are three areas in which fatherhood changes: authorship, royal authority and paternal authority. Brooks said the change of writing technology from the scroll to codex (book form) coincides with the birth of Christ. In the Bible, Christ brings about the “Book” (authorship), and he is the “King” (royal authority) as well as the “Father” (paternal authority). Brooks will teach a course on this subject in the spring and one next fall. The one in the spring is “Parent ing and Printing in Early Modern Eng land,” also called “Ink & Kin,” and the one next fall is an honors course called “Technologies of Parenting in World Literature.” Continued from Pagel Texas A&M researchers, the assistance of a California-k research company, are worl clone Missy, an 11-year old Be; Collie-Huskie mix.
