eedom of speech by allowing only for
merican flags, and no other flags or objects,
be hung from hall windows. Students
pressed concern that allowing only American
lags to be flown would create an exclusionary
lyjronment and nullify campus claims of
versity.
Other RHA members countered with argu-
icnts that the American flag takes precedent
er others within U.S. borders and that those
other nationalities could seek permission to
mg their flags on an individual basis.
Chris Bernard, a presenter of the resolution,
lid that the proposal did not infringe upon the
st Amendment.
Though the original vote was tied, with
arrera casting a deciding vote in favor, the
issue was revisited at the end of the meeting.
The officers ruled that in the first vote, proxies
— votes filed by a member on behalf of an
absent delegate — were miscounted. The asso
ciation took two additional votes to decide the
matter.
Delegates were instructed to vote as they had
before so that a recount could be taken. Both
votes were 30 in favor and 33 against, with two
abstentions. It was decided by RHA executives
that the original vote had been miscounted and
the second and third ones were the actual deci
sion of the council.
In other business, RHA approved a resolu
tion to recommend that the Department of
Residence Life allow T.O. Walton Hall 24-hour
visitation on a trial period, with a final decision
on the implementation expected at the end of
the semester.

Cast members were selected
rough auditions in July.
Eric Bethea, a junior
nance major, was featured in
ie first A&M “Sidelines”
pisode last Thursday. The
'nil show centered on
Mea's work with the Red,
4nd Blue Out organ
ised for the Sept. 22 A&M-
Oklahoma State University
game to honor victims of the
Sept. I l terrorist attacks.
“It wasn’t too invasive,”
Bethea said. “At the beginning,
it was really weird to have
cameras all around. But l was
surprised at how quick it
became second nature to have
them following us.”
Bethea said he has already
heard feedback from students
concerning the first show.
“A lot of people are saying
that they don’t think the char
acters in the first show were
really like the majority of
A&M students,” Bethea said.
“When all 12 of us are intro
duced today, then I think
viewers will see that we all
are pretty representative of
the university.”
Sidelines producers called
Emma Bosnyak, a freshman
animal science major, a week
before her Fish Camp session
this summer, and asked if they
could follow her around with
cameras.
“They wanted freshmen in
it, but obviously none tried
out during the summer,”
Bosnyak said.” They were fol
lowing four other girls and
myself around at Fish Camp.
They told us later it was just
kind of like a rehearsal for the
real thing. Then they asked
me if l wanted to be on the
show.”
On ESPN’s Website,
www.espn.com, Bosnyak’s
biography mentions a
boyfriend that attends the
University of Texas. Before
filming began, she broke up
with her boyfriend and has had
to face dating someone new —
on camera.
“At first, I didn’t want to
talk about it or have in on the
camera,” Bosnyak said. “Now
I’m dating someone else, and
it’s a little weird. We met with
cameras there, and the majority
of our dates have been with
cameras around.”
Bosnyak said she has not
changed her behavior or the
activities she takes part in since
the filming began.
“I called by mom and told
her not to worry when she saw
me at parties and things,”
Bosnyak said. “I haven’t
changed anything for the cam
eras. It’s all real relaxed.”
The second episode of
“Sidelines” will air tonight at
l l p.m. on ESPN.
