A&M solicits candidates
for presidency vacancy
By Sommer Bunce
THE BATTALION
The 24-member Presidential Search
Advisory Committee has begun a search
that will not end until a new president
takes current University President Dr.
Ray M. Bowen’s place in June of 2002.
Despite rumors that Sen. Phil Gramm,
R-Texas, is considering the post, he
would have to go through the application
and selection process alongside other
presidential candidates. Gramm, who
announced last week that he will not run
for re-election next year, taught econom
ics at Texas A&M for 12 years in the
1960s and 1970s. His wife, Wendy Lee
Gramm, is an A&M System regent.
“We have to seperate rumors from
reality,” said Search Committee Chair
John L. Junkins. “It’s a national search.
There really is a religious aspect to this
search, a ritual, with a formal process.”
No candidates have been identified
yet, and no names will be made public
until the finalists are selected this spring
from the expected applicant pool of 100,
Junkins said. The closing date for nomi
nations and applications is November 30.
A&M System Chancellor Howard D.
Graves defined the characteristics needed
for a president who would continue the
plans of Vision 2020 to put A&M among
the nation’s top 10 public universities.
“We’re looking for an eminently
qualified individual who will be effec
tive in promoting Texas A&M’s inter
ests, leading the academic community,
working with the state legislature, inter
acting with the national research com
mittee, drawing outstanding students
representative of the state’s population
and maintaining the Texas A&M
University traditions,” Graves said. “The
new president also will be charged with
continuing Texas A&M’s quest to
become a top-10 university.”
The application process is open to any
one who feels qualified, Junkins said.
Although he thought it would be “hard to
conceive” of hiring a University president
who did not have a doctorate degree,
Junkins said there are no race, gender or
ethnic exclusions.
“We’re looking for a person with out
standing integrity and strong academics,”
Junkins said. “President Bowen has been
an exceptionally good president.”
Bowen announced his resignation June
6, saying he thought it would “create a
wave of renewal on campus.”
He will officially step down June 30,
2002, having served an eight-year term,
the fourth-longest in A&M history.
Bowen graduated from A&M in
1958 and earned a doctorate from
A&M in 1961.

go to the National Tournament this year.”
Such lofty goals should not be out of reach for this
year’s team. The Aggies are returning five players
from their 2000-2001 squad, and boast a highly
regarded incoming group of freshmen.
Seniors McKenzie Dyslin and Jonsson will be back
to lead this year’s team after finishing second and
fourth, respectively, in scoring last year. Also returning
are seniors Jennifer Poth and Jennifer Cates, as well as
sophomore Mira Bendevis. According to Sutherland,
any of these players is capable of stepping up and filling
the shoes of the departed Epps and Ostos.
“All of them have played well this summer,”
Sutherland says. “All of them could step into that role.
We’ll have to wait and see who’s going to bring consis
tency, and see whose score is always going to count.”
TTiat is where Jonsson comes in. Along with Dyslin,
Poth and Cates, she will be expected to provide leader
ship for what is a fairly young squad. It is a role that she
relishes.
“We have five freshmen on the team, so another goal
is to be a good leader for them and help them gain some
experience this year,” Jonsson says. “You can really
learn a lot in four years.”
The Aggies start their 2001-2002 campaign in
Albuquerque, N.M. at the Comcast-Dick McGuire
Invitational Friday and Saturday. They hope to
improve last year’s eighth place finish on a course that
Jonsson says is "awesome.” But the goals of Jonsson
and the entire Aggie team are a bit higher than that.
“Nationals are something that we’re really focusing
on. The four seniors here — we haven’t made it to a
national tournament,” Jonsson says. “We’re all good
players, and from what I hear, it’s something very spe
cial.
If Jonsson’s back can hold up under the load, both lit
erally and figuratively, the Aggies have a good chance
to figure out just how special it really is.

C. C. Creations will work over
time this weekend to produce an
initial batch of red, white and
blue t-shirts that will go on sale
Monday, Bethea said.
Depending on the demand, more
will be ordered.
C. C. Creations is charging the
student group $2.50 for each
shirt, but has not demanded any
money up front, Bethea said. The
t-shirts will sell to students for $5.
Kourtney Rogers, an organiz
er of the 'p ro j ect and a junior
recreation parks and tourism
major, said she did not expect
her suggestion on an Internet
discussion board to snowball
into such a vast undertaking.
“In that initial email I just
said, ‘Hey, this would be a great
way to make a statement.’ I did
n’t expect it to be such a coordi
nated effort, but the response
was tremendous,” Rogers said.
Organizers met Thursday
with student leaders and admin
istrators and all were supportive
of the effort, Bethea said.
“I’ve gotten that email at
least eight times, so that’s a
good indication that there’s a lot
of students who support this,”
said Schuyler Houser, student
body president and a senior
industrial engineering major. “In
light of what’s happened, this
would be a very meaningful
public gesture,” Houser said.
Kevin Graham, a senior yell
leader and marketing major
expressed support for the red,
white and blue scheme.
“They haven't got much time
to get the word out, but it defi
nitely sounds like a great idea,”
Graham said.

senior political science and his
tory major, and Taylor Bacot,
MSC Current Issues Awareness
chair and a junior economics
major, began the walk by lock
ing arms and walking away from
the Academic Building toward
Sbisa Dining Hall. Participants
turned down Houston street,
walked past A.P. Beutel Health
Center toward the MSC and
around Rudder Tower back to
the Academic Plaza .
Charles A. Sippial, Sr., vice
president for administration,
said he felt it was important for
students not to forget about the
victims of the World Trade
Center and Pentagon attacks.
“This whole background ter
rorist activity is horrible, that
[the terrorists] take on innocent
people and take their lives and
they had nothing to do with any
thing that’s been done before.
So 1 am out here in support of
the people who have been killed
and injured, and the people we
have here at A&M who are
Aggies, who in some cases have
been harassed; I am out here in
support of them, so people know
we are united,” Sippial said.
Mark Weichold, associate
provost for the undergraduates
program, said the diverse group
of students and faculty that
attended the event was symbolic
of the commitment the students
have for each other.
A moment of silence was
observed before the crowd dis
persed.
“The walk today included
students, faculty, staff, adminis
trators, it included men and
women, members of the Corps
of Cadets, American students,
international students,
Christians, Jews, followers of
the Hindu faith, followers of
Islam and other faiths. Today’s
walk shows a unity among the
student body, a demonstration of
[the student body’s] caring and
compassion and its commitment
toward each other as Aggies,”
Weichold said.
Suspects indicted for drugs
HOUSTON (AP) — A four-count federal
indictment has been returned against eight
men accused of distributing a deadly drug
mixture of cocaine and heroin that led to the
deaths of 16 people in Houston last month.
U.S. Attorney Gregory A. Serres on
Thursday announced the indictments, which
allege that the distribution of the drug mixture
resulted in death or serious bodily injury.
Those indicted were: Benito Almaguer, 41;
Jose “Kilo” Colunga, 19; Andy Gonzalez,
25; Baldomero “Baldo” Guajardo, 24;
Roman “Horse” Juarez, 23; Charles
Martinez, 22; Lucas Martinez, 23; and Louis
Michael Melchor, 18. If convicted, they each
face between 20 years to life in prison and up
to a $ 1 million fine.
All eight are detained without bond.
Authorities say Charles Martinez told them
the deadly mixture originated at his house.
