Student
safety bills
considered
Movin’ on
lay, Apr
BY JEANETTE SIMPSON
The Battalion
The 52nd session of the Student Senate's last
meeting to consider new items of legislation will fo
cus on three bills created to enhance student safety.
The first bill, i('approved, will create a Lupe Med
ina Program committee within the Student Govern
ment Association (SGA). The Lupe Medina Program
is a student managed program to prevent drowsy dri
ving. Created at Texas A&M, it has grow n to include
more than 80 hotels in Texas and surrounding states
which offer a discount to weary travelers.
“This program deserves the rights and privileges
to be a full committee in the Student Government As
sociation," said Robert Furgeson, student senator and
a junior political science major.
In an etlbrt to reduce congestion which will be faced
by resident students during the construction ofthe West
Campus Parking garage and on Wellborn Road, se\ er-
al senators have authored a bill which will temporarily
move all resident parking spaces to main campus.
“This bill will propose that parking and trans
portation sen ices change the parking areas adjacent
to Kyle Field into resident parking only and move the
commuter parking areas located in this area to W r est
Campus," said Justin Strickland, chairperson of Stu
dent Services and a junior political science major.
If passed, Uie hill would suggest changing parking
areas 48,62.69 and 91 to resident lots. Parking areas
61,63 north and 63 south on West Campus will be
come commuter lots.
“This proposed change is only temporary aid was
designed to eliminate the hazard that resident students
would face if forced to move around the construction
and road work,” Strickland said.
file final bill, created to make A&M a viler place,
proposes that a formal crosswalk across Agronomy
Road be considered under emergency consent. This
means that a vote is not required for the bill to be ac
cepted unless a senator disagrees with the hill.
Several other bills will be considered. A bill sup
porting the Resident I fall Association's decision to place
bicycle racks outside the Northside parking garage w ill
also he considered under emergency consent. Ollier hills
to be voted on are those which clarify the Student (iov-
emment constitution and create a International Student
Leaders ofthe Americas conference.
