THE BATTALIO
Film
Continued from page 3
100 days of shooting ... we had barely 30
(days). So there were a lot of us having to
work really quickly.
DT: When Greg was talking about
‘70s movies, what were you referring to?
GJ: Well, the thing I loved about
movies from that era is that they’re not
particularly one kind of movie. If you
look at “Midnight Cowboy” or “The
French Connection” or other great films
from that era, they’re not one particu
lar kind of film, which is what I hoped
we pulled off with this script. This isn’t
just a caper movie, or a con movie or a
buddy movie — it’s a movie that talks
about issues of family, race and the city.
It’s a number of different things, and
it’s not just an indie little art film.
Women
Continued from page 1
promote the event, there were a few replies
that said there should not be an open house
exclusively for women.
“We just want to help Aggie women have
a pleasant and positive experience at Texas
A&M,” Bendoraitis said.
Casey Brown, a senior finance major and
member of American Business Women As
sociation, said women at A&M are given
many opportunities, but gender issues do oc
casionally arise.
“Women have to worry a lot more about
how they dress and sexual discrimination,”
Brown said.
Brenda Bethman, coordinator for the Wom
en’s Center and GIES, said information will be
available at the open house regarding sexual vio
lence among men and women, an issue that few
know about.
“It is a great opportunity for males to know how
to help sisters, girlfriends or friends in different sit
uations,” Bethman said. “Statistically, women are
more likely to go to their guy friends for help.”
Bethman said women have different social
and personal needs than men and GIES is try
ing to raise awareness for that and show what
is available for women.
Brian Burnett, a senior management in
formation systems major, said there are still
many prejudices against women.
“This shows the effort Texas A&M has to
try to close those gaps while not hurting the
opposite sex,” Burnett said. “Brenda Beth
man should be commended on her work.”
Blake Peveto, a senior accounting major,
said having a sister helps him understand
what women go through. He encourages men
to attend the open house.
“I realize the hardships that sometimes oc
cur for women,” Peveto said. “Guys need to be
aware, too, so that they do not perpetuate the
problem themselves.”
Blood
Continued from page 1
will continue to do that (donate
blood) in years to come,” said
Theresa Evangelista, territory
manager for the Bryan-College
Station Red Cross Center.
For every pint of blood,
three lives can be saved, be
cause the Red Cross can sepa
rate the blood into three parts:
red cells, plasma and platelets,
Evangelista said.
“40 percent of the popula
tion is O positive, and it is
the most needed,” Evange
lista said.
Hale reiterated the dilemma
of getting college students to
donate. Hale said the chal
lenge is the donating genera
tion is aging, and new dono:
are needed to keep the blot
supply up.
“This (blood drive) %
particularly effective at Tex;
A&M. We really were worriM
about Labor Day, but wepT
ceeded our goal on Monday
Hale said.
Hale said from April
2003 to last week, 6,()
pints have been donated
A&M alone.
“The Red Cross is the
mary supplier for the Braz;
County hospitals. It definite
does not go out of Texas]
Evangelista said. |
The blood given by done]
goes to the Brazos County fc
and if there is any availabi;]
will be transported to sixsi
rounding communities.
