signs such as, “Texas A&M:
where guys like girls and girls
like guys,” “No student fees for
STDs” and “Satan is a flamer,”
among others.
McCaig said student reaction
to the demonstration was large
ly positive.
“Our voice, I believe, repre
sents the silent majority of
Aggies,” he said.
Ryan Adams, a sophmore
kinesology major who wit
nessed the demonstration,
called the display “ridiculous
and shocking.”
“It was blatantly obvious that
(Wednesday’s event) was meant
to terrorize the homosexual
community,” Adams said. “It
was extremely uncalled for.”
Adams said the YCT should
focus on addressing monetary
issues, not moral ones, if he
claims to be concerned with
funding.
The Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual
and Transgendered Aggies,
Adams said, have not made
attacks on the Young
Conservatives and did not
deserve Wednesday’s treatment.
"Student organizations can
not be walking around attacking
each other,” he said.
Originally, planners of the
event had intended to park the
trucks in Rudder Plaza but were
not permitted to do so. Kramm
said a YCT member had previ
ously received permission to
park the vehicles.
“It was my understanding that
we had already jumped through
all the hoops,” Kramm said.

Reber said the new Bonfire
system, which moved online from
aseparate system, will be more
ttsible to many of the students
she works with.
One problem on campus is the
age of the institution, Reber said.
Many buildings at A&M, such as
the Military Sciences building,
are inaccessible and do not have
to be changed unless a major ren
ovation is done.
She said whenever there is a
problem with a student’s class
room being inaccesible, A&M
responds by changing the class’
location.
Reber said A&M has always
been open to the concept of help
ing students with disabilities.
Reber said that A&M
President Robert M. Gates’
focus on diversity for the
University includes students
with disabilities.
Tim Obenhaus, a senior psy
chology major, is the president of
Networks, which promotes dis
ability awareness.
Obenhaus was diagnosed with
Attention Deficit Disorder in col
lege and his doctor recommended
he talk to Services for Students
with Disabilities to help cope
with it in the academic arena.
He said that Services for
Students with Disabilities helps
by taking unnecessary pressures
off him and making things easier,
such as test taking. Obenhaus is
allowed to sit in a cubicle during
a test and is alloted time and a
half to complete it.
“I can really tell a difference,”
Obenhaus said.
NEWS IN BRIEF
Chemical company
agrees to help
clean water supply
PITTSBURGH (AP) — A

ed wells at a dump site where
groundwater was polluted by
waste in the 1950s and 1960s.
State environmental officials
said Wednesday that Middlebury,
Conn.-based Crompton Corp. has
agreed to pay for its share of
cleanup efforts at the Bear Creek
