other side of the table as long
as it’s civil.”
Osei Bonsu, MSC Wiley
Lecture Series chair, said Blix’s
speech is especially important
since the controversy of WMDs
has popped up in presidential
debates recently.
“The justification for war has
become a campaign issue."
Bonsu said. “There is no better
way to get the information than
from the direct source, a man
who was there.”
Nikki Van Hightower, a
political science senior lectur
er, said this speech is especial
ly important for A&M stu
dents.
“This will be interesting,
especially to young people in
this college, where many people
have some sort of military
involvement of some kind.” Van
Hightower said.
Van Hightower said the
speech shouldn’t bring any con
troversy but if it does it just
shows the importance of the
issue he is addressing.
“There is a cultural bias at
this University that supports the
conservative. Republican,
George Bush side of politics and
the fact that we would bring
someone in that would chal
lenge those issues is interesting
and I think it shows a maturing
of the University.” Van
