GROUPS
Spring 1999
What is Group Counseling and How can it Help?
(Soup counseling involves about four to ten people meeting with one or two counselors serving as group lead
ers. Group leaders work to provide a safe, confidential environment where group members are free to discuss
their problems and concerns. Through the group, members identify with others who are experiencing similar
issues and increase their self-awareness by obtaining genuine and honest feedback.
How much you talk about yourself depends on what you are comfortable with. You can benefit from group even
when you are saying little because you will learn about yourself as others talk about their concerns. Make an
appointment at the SCS to speak to a screening counselor to help you determine if a group might benefit you.

CLINTON
WASHING- ■
TON (AP) — The
Senate’s Democ
ratic leader con
ceded on Mon
day that
witnesses “may
be inevitable” in-
President Clin
ton’s impeach
ment trial but
said that once live testimony starts
the Senate could lose much of its
control over the proceedings.
A Republican victory on calling
Monica Lewinsky and others could
extend the trial indefinitely, said
Sen. Tom Daschle. And he specu
lated that it also could lead to a
Senate-floor spectacle of 100 sena
tors watching her "point to where
the president touched her.”
Republican Sen. Jon Kyi dis
missed the warning as "all-or-
nothing” scare tactics — “just not
true.”
As Daschle commented, White
House lawyers honed the defense
presentation they will begin Tlies-
day. It will focus on conflicts in tes
timony, a strategy that would be
aimed at undercutting House
charges of perjury and obstruction
of justice but that also could open
the way to Republican demands for
witnesses to help resolve the dis
putes. The White House has been
fighting that demand, but now ex
pects witnesses, officials said.
White House Counsel Charles
F.C. Ruff will spend several hours
presenting opening defense argu
ments before the trial recesses for
Clinton's State of the Union ad
dress in the House chamber where
the president was impeached.
Daschle, in an interview with
The Associated Press, acknowl
edged the Democrats apparently
have lost their fight with majority
Republicans to conclude the trial
without live testimony from wit
nesses.
But the potential results were
still being hotly disputed.
“Once we say we have to have
witnesses, then it seems to me
we’ve given up the ability to tell the
House or White House how to pre
sent their case,” Daschle said.
White House Press Secretary
Joe Lockhart said anew that the
Clinton side is ready to argue its
case without witnesses even
though live testimony might bring
“exculpatory information” to the
Letters flood

McALLEN, Texas (AP) — As
part of an ongoing lesson in nonvi
olence, high school students
planned a peace rally and march
Monday in honor of the Rev. Mar
tin Luther King Jr.
“I thought it would be a really
neat thing for the kids to see a ral
ly and to see a march in action,”
said teacher Caitlin Wittig, who or
ganized the events.
Wittig hails from the Washing
ton, D.C. area where such events
are common, unlike the Lower Rio
Grande Valley where she now
teaches. •
“Martin Luther King used non
violent protest in such a successful
way that it would be a good thing
for the students to see it in action.”
Wittig’s 9th through 12th
graders at Options in Education
High School spent weeks reading
about King, reading his famous *T
Have a Dream” speech and watch
ing videos on the civil rights
movement.
They were among numerous
Texans events celebrating Martin
Luther King Day with services,
speeches, and marches.
In McAllen, after a rally Monday
evening featuring speeches, poems
and songs from students ranging
from second grade through high
school, Wittig’s students were to
