“It’s a way to ensure to everyone ixi-
volved that nothing is really being covered
up,” Duke said. “To not do so is to go
against University policy.”
McCleskey said his secretary and his
student worker quit shortly after he left.
“Their quitting had everything to do
with this incident,” he said. “They also felt
it was no longer an environment in which
they could morally and ethically work.”
Duke said the allegations of miscon
duct against company K-2 included mak
ing freshmen run during allotted sleeping
time and harassment of freshmen during
school hours.

Jenkins said his mother
struggled with breast cancer, in
the early years of his study in
medicine.
“In 1974, my mother was di
agnosed with breast cancer and
given no options, and since the
disease was still not spoke of in
public, she had no one to turn to
and the cancer consumed her,”
Jenkins said. "Prevention stud
ies did not exist, and nothing
was offered to her except a de
bilitating radical mastectomy.”

College Station (AP) — The Texas
