How Does a $7 fee increase benefit TAMU students?
Students will be voting Mar. 29 & 30 on whether to increase the Recreational Sports Fee. The
Department of Recreational Sports and Student Government leaders have recommended a
net $7 increase. The increase will preserve what Aggies have now. Specifically, the Rec
Center and Department of Recreational Sports programs will be maintained and operated in
the same high quality and accessible manner that they are today. The Department will be
able to replace old equipment and keep it in good working order. The Rec Center will con
tinue to be open from early morning to late evening, and will be able to continue to offer the
programs and services students have come to expect and enjoy. A vote of "yes" will ensure
that future Aggies have the same opportunity to recreate, socialize and be exposed to a
healthy lifestyle in well-maintained and beautiful surroundings.
Polling Sites: 9 a.m.-5 p.m. March 29 & 30

Three Little Pigs
The MSC Opera and Performing
Arts Society has recruited the
Three Little Pigs by TheatreWorks
USA for its OPAS Jr. program.
However, this version of the
children’s classic has been up
dated and brings a new twist to
the tale by changing the gender of
one of the pigs.
In this version the two brothers,
Perry and Patrick, along with their
sister, Portia, acquire an inheri
tance from their mother, Penelope.
With their $1,500 dollars each, the
three pigs are to find good, safe
homes for themselves.
Unbeknownst to the three pigs,
they have just moved into the
wolves’ neighborhood, but the
groups learn it is possible to live to
gether in accord.
MSC Opas Jr.’s the Three Little
Pigs will be showing Saturday at 2
p.m. and 4 p.m. Tickets are avail
able at the MSC Box Office.
