student and sophomore kinesiology major.
“I have been waiting to get to A&M for two
years, and now I am finally here. I want to
make the very most of it.”
Michelle Steffek, a senior education
major, has spent three years in the Aggie
Orientation Leader Program and is con
vinced campus involvement enriches the
college experience.
“I want to broaden my horizons this year
and get to know different people in majors
outside of mine,” Steffek said. “As far as
which I will join, I am not sure and will just
go Sunday keeping all my options open.”
Open House will also feature entertain

dancers.

reflect Republican voting
trends in the state.
Ellis said Bush has no
“plausible deniability” of
involvement in the push to
redraw congressional dis
tricts because Rove has made
calls to state lawmakers on
the issue.
“A paid federal govern
ment employee making calls
from the White House, our
house, is acting at the behest
of his or her employer, pure
and simple,” Ellis said.
The White House did not
respond to a request for com
ment. In a briefing
Wednesday White House
press secretary Scott
McClellan said Bush is
always concerned about
Texas but the redistricting
issue is a Texas matter.
State Sen. Eliot
Shapleigh said after com
paring notes with Colorado
legislators who visited the
Democrats in New Mexico
“we began to see a national
pattern of abuse.”
“What’s happening
here is people in the
Republican party are try
ing to overturn the results
of elections,” said Rep.
Martin Frost of Texas.
“They are trying to over
turn the results of elec
tions in Texas two years
ago. They trying to over
turn the results of the.
tion in California. T;
are trying to overii
results of election
Colorado.”
