Collier Jones, a senior finance major, said
those who knew Hord knew that he loved to be
in the center of action. Hord was deep-voiced
and influential as a delegate
representing Phi Gamma
Delta, Jones said.
“Anything that dealt with
people, you could count on
him to be (involved),” Jones
said. “He loved being in the
middle of things; it was just
the type of guy he was,”
Jones said.
Jones said Hord enjoyed
fishing and hunting in his
spare time and that he was al
ways willing to help others.
“He was a giving per
son,” Jones said. “He cared
for others more than him
self. He could always be
counted on. Anything any
one else didn’t want to do,
he would do it. The man
was selfless.”
Jones said Herd’s friends and family are
still unclear about the circumstances sur
rounding his death, but that they have no
uncertainty about the legacy Hord left them.
Jones said Herd’s concern for others will al
ways stick with them and that his death left
them with an example of what a true friend
should be.
“He pushed us to be more like him,” Jones
said. “We looked to him
as an example of what we
wanted to be more like in
our own lives.”
Jones said the Fijis are
setting up a fund in fiord’s
name. All money raised
will go toward buying an
Aggie ring for a Fiji who
exhibits the same “happy-
go-lucky” characteristics
that Hord possessed.
“If we aspire to be any
thing, it would be to be as
good a friend to anyone that
Ian was to (us),” Jones said.
Hord is survived by
parents Ronald and Kar
en Hord; his 19-year-old
brother, Shay; and his 26-
year-old brother, Jason.
Hord will be honored at Tuesday’s Silver Taps
at 10:30 p.m. in front of the Academic Building.

Despite criticism that
speeches during the RNC had
been too focused on insult
ing opponent Sen. John Kerry,
Wohlgemuth said the speeches
were about defining the differ
ences between the candidates,
not insulting them.
“There is a stark contrast
between the two candidates.
It is up to the candidates to
bring out the differences so
that the American people
know exactly who they are
voting for or against,” Wohl
gemuth said.
Senior political science ma
jor and chairman of the Col

son said Bush’s acceptance
speech would revive Ameri

he has on American society

Anthis said Bush’s speech
wasn’t reflective of his true

“(Bush) tried to come off
as the moderate,” Anthis said.
“It’s surprising considering
his radical agenda. Whenever
he talks like a moderate it’s
just to get votes because he’s
really a right-wing radical.”
