Business owners and resi dents are concerned that the tens of thousands of people reluming to work could create chaos in a fragile situation. "I don’t know how much this place can take,” said Elizabeth Hart, who lives on John Street, three blocks from where the World Trade Center stood. “There’s no power, it smells bad. The last thing we need is crowds going to work down here.” Despite Giuliani's opti mism, some business owners say they may need days, even weeks, to prepare. “I don’t think it’s going to be possible. 1 don’t know how they say they can open,” said Marek Zieba, the superintendent of an apartment building on Ann Street. “It’s good for the people, but 1 don't think they can open.” Dennis Coin, pres Coin & Co. broken so concerned abou chaos Monday mom plans to sleep inside ny’s office, just dow from the NYSE built Coin’s firm the floor of the Exchange, whi out electricity porarily operat York exchange Besides the infrastructure, return to work emotionally sear tm Monday and I >1 th necring fields,’ Jan Rineha programs in Engineering, : dents should j meeting pros] the wav they p “If 1 was wtHild tell th resume, dress most importantly, ha\ fidencc." she said.

Medal Continued from Page 1 Corps Special Awards Board convened last summer and decided that Daerr should receive the award, 34 years after his heroic actions. While at Texas A&M. Daerr was a mem ber of Squadron 4 in the Corps of Cadets. He served as scholastic officer on the Air Division staff his senior year and graduated with a degree in industrial distribution. Almost the entire 1st Regiment of the Corps gave up plans for their Friday after noon to attend the award ceremony, John Simmons, 1st Regiment Commander and senior biomedical science major, said. “It shows how much we support our for mer cadets," Simmons said. "It was an awe some experience. We had a rare opportunity to hear from a national hero." Daerr was presented the Silver Star Medal as his actions of May 20 and 21. 1967, were read off. Daerr gave a speech in which he continually gave credit and honor to the men that served under his command. “The Marines who fought with me were heroes of a very unpopular war. As brave as the men who hit the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944 were, they were no more heroic than my Marines,” Daerr said. “Those men and women who went to Tic win always 'ctuming to rec from tlv followin business lx* my heroes’ America.

He walked with his family and other distm;: guests as the Marines' Hymn played Journalism Continued from Page 1 Walraven said the growth has occurred because journalism is attractive to students for a num ber of reasons. He said most people are very familiar with the mass media and see it as a career that is exciting and fun. To combat the increase in the student enrollment the journal ism department has raised the grade-point ratio to transfer in from 2.0 to 2.25. Dr. Larry Oliver, associate dean for the College of Liberal Arts said raising the GPR requirement was a way for the department to do modest enroll ment management. “[The journalism depart ment) can’t add faculty so they have to manage enrollment," Oliver said. "We can’t expend the faculty because three to fours years from now the enrollment might go down. We can’t let an undergraduate [program) drive the hiring of faculty.” Oliver said the journalism department, along with the College of Liberal Arts, is exam ining additional methods of managing enrollment, including placing a cap on admissions. “[A cap) would be very simi lar to what the business school has done,” Oliver said. "We would manage enrollment through admissions and transfer students. We are not sure how to decide which students to admit.” Oliver said one of the main reasons liberal arts has seen a major increase in student enroll ment is because they are receiv ing the overflow of studen are unable to get into the > of engineering, busines architecture because of placed on those college also said students are seeifli there is potential for them ' eral arts fields. This is not the first time journalism department fii- to take action to cut back o' amount of students in the if gram. In the early 1990s department downsized from students to 600 students bee- of budgetary constraints. Looking for something deeper? F or the most exciting engineering careers, you have to look below the surface. At Cameron, our engineers are going more than a mile beneath the ocean in search of new oil and gas. A challenge as great as any space mission. The fact is, whether it’s on land or under the sea, there are no greater challenges on earth than those you’ll find at Cameron. For more than 80 years, we’ve been making energy technology history. Now we’re looking for graduating mechanical and electrical engineers to take us even deeper. To find out more, see us on campus.
