NEWS IN BRIEF
Gov. Bush names

Gov. George W. Bush an
nounced the appointment of mem
bers to the Texas A&M University
Board of Regents. Lionel Sosa of
San Antonio, Steve Stevens of
Houston and Susan Wynn of Ben-
brook will replace three members

The appointees are subject to
Texas Senate approval before they
begin their terms.

Crumpton told the audience in
order to stay positive they have to
create a cycle of positivity which
includes positive input, a positive
center and positive output.
Crumpton said it is important to
stack every bit of criticism in be
tween two layers of praise.
She said no one should let their
hopes die down.
“As an engineer, I have heard of
the conservation of energy and the
conservation of matter principles,”
she said, “but I have never heard of
the conservation of hope theory.”
Crumpton said in her life, she fol
lows the motto “attitude is altitude.”

Hargrove said there are many
ethical debates concerning the en
vironment.
“At one point, the director of the
U.S. Geological Survey did not
want to make efforts to help the
preservation of Yosemite National
leadership organizations, was
spread to other universities at a
conference this weekend.
Members of Freshman Leaders In
Progress (FLIP), Aggie Fish Club
(AFC), Fish Aides, Aggie Leaders
of Tomorrow (ALOT) and Leaders
In Freshman Engineering (LIFE)
hosted delegates from Texas,
Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee,
Kansas and Iowa universities and
discussed freshman leadership
organizations and programs of
fered for incoming freshmen.
Jeremy Nelson, a director of the
conference and a senior comput
er science major, said the confer
ence leaders and participants dis
cussed ways to improve their
existing freshman leadership or
ganizations and ways to establish
non-existing ones.
Conference On Freshman Lead
ership Organizations (COFLO), a
new A&M group, was formed to
host the conference and to offer
itself as a resource to the dele
gates.
“I heard from a Cal-Tech pro
fessor once that ‘Success means
obtaining or attaining what you
want, and happiness means want
ing what you get.’”
Lia Xu, an attendee from Dal
las, said she learned from the
workshops how to accept criticism
constructively.
“I really saw that I need to let
any kind of criticism or conflicts
from bringing me down for a long
time and prevent me from moving
forward in my career.” she said.
Nancy Magnussen, director of
the WISE conference said she
thinks this year’s conference was
a success, and planners are al
ready scheduling speakers for next
year.
Park because he felt it was God’s
business to take care of it,” lie said.
Middleton said the main focus
of the roundtables was for dele
gates to engage in an in-depth dia
logue about matters addressed by
the speakers.
“These roundtable discussions
are not so much to find solutions
as they are to promote discussion
among the delegates,” she said.
