He’s just beside himself now.” The source declined to comment on the charges against Bice. According to police records, the Lambda Chi Alpha president found the videotape and notified the president of the woman's sorority. The woman later contacted Bice and asked if he had shown the videotape to anyone. “This crime is a state jail felony and you can receive up to two years in a state jail,” Sigler said. “(Bice's punishment) is up to the court, but people always get probation unless that is violated.” Bice was released from the Brazos County Jail on Thursday after posting a $28,000 bond, Dicky said. Incidents similar to this one. involving secretly videotaping others, were not illegal until this year. Sigler said. In several cases, people installed cameras while tenants were gone and then videotaped them. “What those people did wasn’t burglary or tres passing, so the legislature had to pass a new law making this type of activity illegal,” Sigler said. Bice could not be reached for comment. ROI Continued from page 1 Carroll Scherer, incoming director of the MBA program, said rankings are often used by prospective students to choose a business school to attend. "Since the Business Week results indicate that the Mays Business School is of great value, this will attract the top students to the MBA program,” Scherer said. Kristin Aubel, a sophomore undergraduate in the business school, said the rankings make her want to stay at A&M for graduate school. “It peaks my interest and raises the possibility of my attending A&M’s MBA pro gram,” Aubel said.

A recent improvement to the business school’s format may relieve doubt among students. The new modular format imple mented this year includes week- long intersession breaks that allow students to different com panies and corporations. Corporate involvement in the MBA program has risen in recent years and gives students hands-on experience with differ ent businesses, Scherer said. “With a strong commitment toward preparing students to face the challenges of today's globally-oriented businesses, the program focuses on producing students who are experienced, hardworking and committed, accomplished communicators, ethical, globally aware, team oriented and technologically competent," Scherer said. Northwestern University’s Kellogg Business School was ranked number one overall by Business Week. The only other Texas school to make any of the rankings was the McCombs Business School at the University of Texas, which wasn’t ranked for return on investment. Ranked number four in steepest decline, UT’s school fell from an overall rank of 17 last year to 21 this year and was ranked number one in need of improvement. The Mays Business School did not appear in any other Business Week rankings.
