research in the A&M area with
the fear that the local commu
nity would not support it.
“It was something different
and new to them ” he said.
However A&M administra
tion supported him and
allowed rum to teach a class
devoted only to the subject of
hip-hop. The first day of class
attracted so many students
they were sitting in the aisles,
he said.
To keep the newer genera
tions informed, Coleman said,
he wants to offer more classes
on African-American litera
ture and hip-hop.
“I want to shed the stereo
types other institutions have
of A&M and send a clear mes
sage,” he said.
This is Coleman’s second
year at Texas A&M
University, following a career
in teaching at the Veterans
Military Institute as a substi
tute professor in the
Department of Behavioral
Science and Leadership.

said she does not advise on how safe an apart
ment complex is based on monthly calls for
service, but said she would be leery of com
plexes that have a high number of calls and a
low number of apartment units.
“I would question it a little more,” Scott
said. “I’m not saying whether or not an apart
ment is good or bad, but why are police offi
cers there more?”

Trial
Continued from page 1
late senator, was on the
defense list, as were Skakel’s
brothers, Steven and Thomas,
and his father.
The prosecution’s list
includes Thomas Skakel’s attor
ney and Kenneth Littleton, who
at the time of the killing was a
live-in tutor in the Skakel house.
Both Thomas Skakel and
Littleton were at one time con
sidered suspects in the murder.
Moxley’s body was found
on Halloween under a tree in
her yard. She had been out the
night before with other teens,
including Michael and Thomas
Skakel. She had been beaten
with a golf club that matched a
set owned by the Skakels.
Authorities suspected
Thomas Skakel for years, but
switched their attention to
Michael in 1991 after his fam
ily hired private investigators
in an effort to clear both broth
ers. Statements he gave them
about the night of the murder
differed from what he had
long told police.
Prosecutors say he con
fessed to the crime in the late
1970s while attending Elan
School, a substance abuse facil
ity in Poland Spring, Maine.
Gregory Coleman testified
last year that Skakel told him,
“I’m gonna get away with
murder. I’m a Kennedy” when
the two attended Elan.
But Coleman, 39, later
admitted he had injected heroin
just before testifying. He has
since died, one of many chal
lenges for prosecutors facing
fading memories, reluctant wit
nesses and credibility issues.
