Though bonds and some
commodities resumed trading
Thursday, this has been the stock
market’s longest closure since
the midst of the Depression in
1933, when the government
declared a banking holiday that
lasted for more than a week.
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.”

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.

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. Or visit
