Pull your hoops tickets NOW
for Big 12 basketball in 2002!
Tech and Coach Knight come in Jan. 9,
followed by Kansas, tu and more. Get your
basketball tickets early—avoid the lines. Bring your
all sports pass—and your friends’ passes—to Reed
Arena Box Office or the Athletic Ticket Office to
pull your tickets early. Then you just walk in the
door, hand your ticket to the ticket taker and catch
every minute, every shot and every steal of the
Aggie victory.
Loud is loud. And then there’s the LOUD of Reed
Arena full of Ags. Be there for the fun.
Remember Reed’s First Law:
Pull your tickets early to avoid the lines!

THE BATTALION
Texas A&M requires a
tremendous support staff to pro
vide for the more than 44,(X)0
students, community members
and visitors to campus. Student
workers are needed to keep
things running smoothly.
Students work at various jobs
on campus, from driving shuttle
buses to serving hot cups of java
to caffeine-addicted students.
Veronica Garreton, a sopho
more architecture major,
understands the importance of
student jobs.
“I work at Poor Yorick’s and
make coffee — a lot of coffee.”
Garreton said,
Garreton said she spends
about 15 hours a week prepar
ing coffee and keeping Poor
Yorick’s clean. She said the
best things about being a stu
dent worker are not having to
work weekends and interacting
with customers.
‘‘The people that work here,
and the people that come in,
they’re just really nice,”
Garreton said. “You start to
recognize people after a while;
they’re really grateful to get
their coffee in the morning.”
Students demand other serv
ices as well —especially when
it comes to the perpetual quest
for parking spaces. Sonia
Valdez, a junior community
health major and John J.
Koldus Building parking
garage attendant, said her job
includes working as a cashier
and training new employees.
“It’s easy and 1 get to study
while I work, and it pays pretty
well,” Valdez said. “There’s
nothing too interesting about it,
(but) it pays the bills.”
Valdez’s job sounds simple
enough; however, she said free
parking on weeknights for stu
dents with blue commuter
parking passes and the
University Center activities
make nights busy.
She also said cashiers have
little power over parking
garage policies.
“We don’t have much con
trol over things,” she said. “The
machine tells us what time it is
and tells us how much to
charge. We just try to do our
job like anyone else."

creative license — at least in
the classroom.
Scott Lanfried. a junior speech
communications major, helps
organize and administer four
courses of organic chemistry labs.
“We make bins, put glass
ware and stuff in there, mix
chemicals,” Lanfried said. “It’s
pretty easy going, pretty fun.”
The benefits of working on
campus, Lanfried said, are under
standing supervisors and the con
venience of being on cami
