Discussion and Signing — Texas Country Reporter:
Stories from the Backroads
Dallas native Bob Phillips, referred to as the "Charles Kuralt of Texas,"
is the host, producer and creator of the popular, Emmy award-winning
television program Texas Country Reporter. Each week for nearly
three decades, Phillips has paid tribute to the folks whom he
considers to be the real heroes of our time—the everyday men and
women who make Texas such an incredible place. Texas Country
Reporter: Stories from the Backroads is a heartwarming companion
book to the TV series that highlights fifty of Phillips' favorite stories
Phillips recalls a cowboy with the heart of a poet, a passionate
sculptor, and a man who makes baseball bats. He revisits a sanctuary
for abandoned pigs, a resurrected ghost town and an eatery with
Texas-sized pancakes. With full-color photographs, wit and charm, he
shows us the heart of the Tone Star State.
As part of the Author Series at the Texas A&M Bookstore, Bob Phillips
will discuss and sign Texas Country Reporter at 5:00pm on Monday,
December 4th. All events are free and open to the public.

their own ideas, design testing situa

honesty to the judicial system.
The campaign is trying to encour
age faculty and students to work to

to cause a decrease in cheating.
“I’ve seen cheating take place
before, but there is not a better feel
ing than doing your own work and
still making the grade,” said Gra
ham Horton, a senior finance major.
“All cheating brings is guilt, and
who wants that on their con
science?”
The campaign will begin to
day and will continue through
next semester.
