What's Inside
Black Students
A study co-authored by Keith D.
Parker, assistant professor of soci­ology,
states that black students
have a confidence
level equal to that
of white males and
higher than white
females. The study,
Parker said, "Re­futes
a lot of the
myths about black
self-esteem." He
added that by comparing them­selves
with close friends, blacks are
able to concentrate on their own
achievements instead of adopting
high achievers. See A-3.
Offense and defense
Now that the signing day for foot­ball
recruits has come and gone,
find out how Auburn improved on
both sides of the
l i n e . On de­fense,
the Tigers
h a v e a d d e d a
judge to arraign
opposing teams.
While on offense,
the future looks
b r i g h t with the
signing of several
highly rated quarterbacks. Also
signed is David Rocker, the
younger brother of Tracy. For a
complete wrapup, see B-l.
Head t r a i n er
The worst thing about being a
trainer, said John Larkin, trainer
for the men's basketball team, is
that if you're seen
it means someone
is injured. But
even though Lar­kin
doesn't like for
people to see him,
the players realize
his talents. "You
can depend on the
t r a i n e r s . When
you get hurt they have you back
ready to play in a couple of days,"
Mike Jones said. See B-6.

BSU, Hooligan's reach agreement
owner of Hooligan's, has agreed to
reimburse the BSU for payment of the
officer.
Associate Minister Ben Hale had
originally asked the Auburn City
Council at its Feb. 3 meeting to "take
steps to prevent the vandalism" and
more specifically to consider revok­ing
Hooligan's liquor license.
"We really do have it worked out,"
Hale said. "We are good friends with
the owner of Hooligan's, and he is as
concerned about the problems as we
are.

A settlement has been reached
between the Baptist Student Union,
135 N. College St., and Hooligan's
Restaurant and Lounge, also located
on North College Street, regarding
the vandalism of the BSU building
that has occurred since May 1986.
The BSU has hired an off-duty city
police officer to patrol its property
Wednesday through Saturday from 8
p.m. to 2 a.m. Pete Schmudlach,

"The only reason we went to the
council was because the city police
encouraged us to," Hale said. He also
said the police had told him the prob­lem
is virtually unsolvable unless the
source is removed.
The BSU has called the police sev­eral
times, Hale said, but by the time
they arrive the vandals have escaped.
At the Feb. 3 meeting, Mayor Jan
Dempsey said the council would have
to see what authority it had in the
situation, and she suggested that
Hooligan's would possibly have to
hire an off-duty police officer.
The council originally planned to
have Schmudlach appear at the next
meeting Feb. 17, but since the issue
was resolved he was not required to.
At the Feb. 3 council meeting, Hale
presented pictures of the damages
and a list of the vandalisms and the
cost, which totaled $505.
Hale also said that Blondy's Pizza,
Cameragraphics and the Bike Shop,
all located near the BSU, have had
isolated incidents of vandalism.

Foreign graduate teaching
assistants (GTAs) will soon be
required to demonstrate their
command of English to be eligi­ble
to continue their assistant-ships,
according to Dr. Norman
J. Doorenbos, dean of the gradu­ate
school and associate vice
president for academic affairs.
In a letter sent Jan. 15 to deans,
department heads and graduate
program officers, Doorenbos
proposed, effective March 15,
that new international graduate
students not awarded assis-tantships
until the Graduate
School receives a satisfactory
score on the Test of Spoken Eng­lish
(TSE).
Doorenbos also proposed that
current international GTAs be
required to present official docu­mentation
to the school of a pass­ing
score on the TSE or have been
evaluated satisfactorily by a
committee of three — one from
the Speech and Hearing Clinic,
one from the department of for­eign
languages and one from a
department using a large number
of international teaching
assistants.
According to the letter, effec­tive
June 1, "Any student failing
to do so must be removed from
any classrom or laboratory
teaching assignment until the
requirement is met."
Doorenbos' proposal, which
affects only graduate students
who interact with students in the
classroom or laboratory, is based
on a 1983 program initiated by
the Graduate Council "to address
the problem which foreign GTAs
often have with their command
of English," he said.,
In the letter, Doorenbos, who
.came ta Auburn July 1, 1986,
said, "It hjuisbeen brought to my
atteritibfrSthat this policy has
apparently gone unnoticed and is
not being enforced. I feel that the
policy is appropriate and that we
should move quickly to begin its
complete implementation."
The orginal program recom­mended
that foreign GTAs be
required to take the TSE, in addi­tion
to the Test of English as a
Foreign Language, and attain a
minimum score of 200 before they
be given a teaching assistant-ship.
Doorenbos did not know the
maximum score attainable on the

Construction on campus is far from
being over, as more than half of the
$130 million worth of projects are still
in the planning stages, Tom Tillman,
University architect, said.
Student housing, one of the 11 pro­jects
still in the planning stages,
received the largest amount of
money. The last major campus con­struction
project took place in the '60s
when the Hill Dorms were built, Til­lman
said.
to 16 existing buildings and will cover
the cost of new dorms.
The renovation to the old dorms
will include deferred maintenance
and will bring older buildings up to
code compliance, Tillman said.
Dorms will be built to house 600 stu­dents,
and even though no definite
plans have been drawn up, Tillman
said the dorms will probably be com­parable
to J and K which each house
216.
Other changes that will take place
in student housing include the demo­lition
of Magnolia and Bullard
dorms. Even it is not definite, the
space will probably be used by the
College of Business, Tillman said.
The University will also be paying
$21 million for use of the Charles and
Thelma Dixon Conference Center
which got started last month. Even
though the University will not be
paying for any of the actual construc­tion,
it will pay $700,000 per year for
30 years for the use of the continuing
education center.
The $21 million was not part of the
the total construction budget.
Another project in the planning
stages is the expansion of the Ralph
Brown Draughon Library. The Uni­versity
plans to double the size of the
building by expanding it to the east.
No more floors will be added to the
library, Tillman said.
The allotted $18.3 million for
library expansion will also include
the cost of a 400-car parking deck.
Groundbreaking for the project is ten­tatively
set for next fall when the
plans should be final, and the library
is expected to be complete by fall of
'88, Tillman said.
The athletic department is another
area receiving substantial funding
for changes. The building of the upper
deck to Jordan-Hare Stadium is
among the construction affecting the
department. The project, which has
been under construction since late
1985, is scheduled to be complete in
August, Tillman said, but the expan­sion
is running ahead of schedule.
"We are shooting for completion on
May 1, but we are just taking it on a
day-to-day basis," resident architect
Jackson Davis said.
Davis explained that needed mate­rials
have not yet arrived at the site,
and this may interfere with having
the expansion completed by the A-Day
game on May 2. Once completed,
10,000 seats and 70 private suites will
have been added to the stadium.

Students surveyed: Wire Road dangerous
By Colleen Moran
Staff Writer
In a survey conducted by the SGA's
Student Opinion Committee, 55.9
percent of the student polled said the
traffic lights on Wire Road were
hazardous.
The survey, conducted from Dec. 1-
5, 1986, was a randomly generated
phone sample. In the poll, 267 Auburn
students were surveyed.
Among the issues addressed in the
survey were the traffic lane lights on
Wire Road as well as those at its
intersection with Shug Jordan
Parkway.
Jim Johnson, 03 MK, off-campus
senate chairman, has been looking
into the problem at the intersection.
In the survey, an average of 55.9 per:
cent of Auburn students said the traf­fic
lights were hazardous.
"The bulbs in the traffic lights at
the intersection burn out; this makes
the lighting unclear," Johnson said.
"The main concern, though, is to
make the road into four lanes," he
continued.
The lights were put in a few years
ago. "It was an expensive project,
now no one wants to take the respon­sibility
for the mistake there," John­son
said.
An estimated $80,000 a year is
spent on the maintenance of the
intersection annually, Johnson said.
"The project has been at a lull for
the past week or so because of the
budget and finance meetings, but I
intend to get back on it by next week,"
he said.
"Jack Walton of the Auburn Police
Department, the Student Govern­ment
Association, students, and the
administration are all interested in
the proposals; it's just a matter of get­ting
it done soon," Johnson said.
Johnson has been speaking with
the state highway department, as
well as driving to Montgomery to
meet with them.
"Right now, I am being referred here
and there and have been dealing with
basic 'red tape'," he said.
"The Auburn Police Department
stated there were 35 accidents at the
intersection of Wire Road and Shug
Jordan Parkway in 1985, up from 12
in 1981," Johnson said.
''The important thing now is to
keep hammering away," Johnson
said.
According to the survey, more than
half of the students said the intersec­tion
is hazardous, and an average of
19.6 percent thought it was helpful.
"We would like to see something
done by this spring," Johnson said.
"I am scared that it will take a
major accident, with possible deaths,
to change the dangerous system."

Enrollment down, but normal
By Leanne Potts
Staff Writer
Winter enrollment at Auburn is
.at an all-time high of 18,352, a 1.6
percent increase from last year.
Undergraduate enrollment
increased 1.7 percent while grad­uate
enrollment dropped .7
percent.
According to the Registrar's
Office, overall enrollment has
decreased since fall quarter, but
there are 292 more students here
-than this time last year.
Registrar Tom Stallworth said
a decrease is normal for winter
.quarter because many students
.graduate, quit or are suspended,
but added, "This winter's enrol­lment
is still more than past
years."
Freshmen enrollment is up 6.6
percent to 3,707 students, a carry­over
from the increase fall quar­ter.
The number of sophomores
and juniors decreased slightly —
1.5 and 1.2 percent, respectively
— while the number of seniors
increased 3.9 percent to 4,554.
Men outnumber women with
10,646 men and 7,706 women
enrolled this quarter.
Black enrollment has in­creased
with 661 students this
year compared to 623 students
last winter. Stallworth attributes
the increase to an "emphasis on
recruiting superior minority
students."
International student enroll­ment,
435, is "about the same,"
Stallworth said. "Very few inter­national
students are under­graduates,
most are graduate
students in technical fields such
as engineering, agriculture,
fisheries and chemistry."
According to the Registrar's
Office, the College of Liberal Arts
has the highest total enrollment,
with 3,991 students. The Colleges
of Engineering and Business —
with 3,846 and 3,323 students,
respectively — round out the top
three.
Total undergraduate and
graduate enrollments for other
schools are: Education, 2,121;
Science and Mathematics, 1,613;

The School of Home Economics
had a 13.1 percent undergraduate
enrollment increase, the largest
reported by any school. Stall-worth
said he believes that "mar­ketable
programs" such as the
curriculums in hotel and restau­rant
management and food and
nutrition are attracting more
students into the school.
Other schools that had under­graduate
enrollment increases
were: the College of Business, up
5.2 percent to 3,212 students; the
College of Education, up 6.6 per­cent
to 1,637 students; the School
of Pharmacy, up 7.1 percent to
241 students; and the School of
Forestry, up 4.3 percent to 96
students.
The School of Nursing had a
19.2 percent decrease in enroll­ment
winter quarter, the greatest
drop of any school. Stallworth
said the decrease reflected a
nationwide trend in the job
market.

Black students as confident as white students
By Stephanie Hofman
Staff Writer
Black students have a confi­dence
level equal to that of white
males and higher than white
females, but white females have
the highest grade point average,
according to a study co-authored
by Keith D. Parker, assistant pro­fessor
of sociology.
Parker and his co-author David
H. Demo of Virginia Polytechnic
Institute (VPI) based the results
of their study on psychological
tests given to a statistically bal-
Budget is
nearing end
of the road
By David Sharp
Staff Writer
The student senate Budget and
Finance (B&F) Commmittee
made progress toward balancing
the student activities budget this
week.
As of Tuesday night, the com­mittee
had cut $123,312 of the
original $133,728 deficit in the
original proposed budget.
Committee Chairman Hal
Finney said he thinks the meet­ings
will end early next week
which is ahead of schedule.
However, he said the final
approximate $10,000 cuts during
the next week will be the most
difficult to make.
The B&F Committee began its
meetings Feb. 12 with the task of
cutting the student activities
budget by 24 percent because
budget requests exceeded availa­ble
income.
Budget requests for the coming
year amounted to $696,713, but
anticipated income is only
$562,000. This revenue is pro­vided
mostly by student activity
fees from tuition.
This is a "no-win situation,"
Finney said. "With less money
than last year," he said the com-4 -
mittee will not be able to satisfy
the needs of the projects.
Irwin said, "Tuition is skyrock­eting
and student fees are
remaining the same." He said
student activity fees must be
increased to improve the pro­grams
and compensate for
inflation.
Activity fees need to be made a
percentage of tuition instead of
the present flat rate, Irwin said.
Finney said he will recommend
a resolution to raise student
activity fees at Monday night's
student senate meeting.
Irwin said, "We don't want to
get to the point where we are
seriously not functioning prop­erly
because of lack of funds."
However, Finney said he is
"pleased that the projects have
been cooperative" during the cut­ting
process. They understand
the problems facing the commit­tee,
he said.
The SGA offered to cut its
salaries by 5 percent because the
SGA would prefer to cut its salar­ies
instead of student programs,
SGA President Robert Maund
said. However, the request did
not pass because committee
members did not want to set a
precedent of cutting salaries.
Other projects have also helped
the committee by recommending
cuts and tightening their budget.
anced group of 298 students at a
Southern university other than
Auburn or VPI, but they expect
the results would be similar at
other large Southern institutions.
The study is scheduled for release
in an upcoming edition of The
Journal of Social Psychology.
The study "refutes a lot of the
myths about black self-esteem,"
Parker said. "What we set out to
do was study confidence levels
and academic achievement
between black and white stu­dents,
and we went in with the
assumption that black students
would have lower self-esteem
because literature over the past
30 years indicated that black stu­dents
were being portrayed in a
negative way."
Parker said he was surprised
with tne results because they
were not what he had expected.
"In society as a whole, blacks
are not assumed to feel positive
about themselves," Parker said.
"But in reality, the reverse is true,
partly because of role models."
Most black students at predom­inantly
white colleges compare
themselves with other black
friends, often those who did not
go to college. By comparing
themselves with their closest
friends, black students are able to
c o n c e n t r a t e on their own
achievements instead of adopt­ing
high achievers, who may or
may not be white, as role models,
he said.
"The literature for so many
years indicated that self-esteem
and grade point average were
parallel, and we found the oppo­site.
I find it indicated there is no
relationship between the two,"
Parker said.
However, the study's finding
that white female students make
higher grades and have lower
self-esteem than other college
students confirms the findings of
other social scientists, he said.
White female students may be
under far more social pressures
than either black females or male
students, and their socialization
may also play a big part, he said.
Male students showed similar
grade point averages as well as
relatively high levels of self-esteem,
regardless of race, Parker
said.
Parker said the study has made
him more aware of student needs
in his classes.
For instance, he said, male stu­dents
tend to speak out in class,
as do black females, but white
females are more reluctant to get
involved. He tries to involve
white females more in class dis­cussions,
but he also realizes that
class involvementis not always a
sure determinant of acadmeic
performance.

Ag Econ, Econ clash in debate
By Jeff Soileau
Staff Writer
A debate between the Agricul­ture
Economics Club and the
Economics Club on whether the
U.S. government should con­tinue
price supports to the agri­cultural
industry attracted a
crowd of-more than 100 to Haley
Center Tuesday night.
Sponsored by the clubs, the
debate was designed to draw
interest from faculty and stu­dents
on the relationship of agri­culture
and government in the
U.S. economy.
"The free market system would
not be in the best interest in
governing the United States,"
said agriculture team consisting
of Dan Burford, Jim Garrett and
Ann Goembel.
Economics team members
John Craft, Christine Day and
Scott Placek argued that
although price supports might be
beneficial to farmers, it would be
detrimental to the rest of the
economy.
Each team was allowed 10-
minute presentations followed by
a question and rebuttal period.
The absolute free market does
not achieve certain objectives

as availability to feed the poor

Poet speaks
on range
of topics
By Stephanie Warnecke
Assistant News Editor
"I am she, who writes the
poem."
Approximately 600 people
greeted Nikki Giovanni, keynote
speaker for Black History Month,
Tuesday night.
Giovanni discussed topics
ranging from black suppression
to women's lib to aging.
"Cumming (Ga.) is in crisis,"
Giovanni said about the site of
the recent black rights march.
"These people are scared —
they're in a box and can't get
out.
"Sending three black families
to live there will not solve the
problems," she added.
Giovanni said the race problem
"is a joke because we all live on
the same tiny planet.
"We don't expect everyone to
love each other. It's hard enough
to love yourself and the person
lying next to you," she said.
Giovanni said there is no baby-land,
people do not choose what
race they are going to be.
The world is not black and
white, Giovanni said. It's also
brown and yellow. "People don't
realize their sores are not the only
sores.
"Can we try to forgive each
other? Someone has to forgive us
all," she said.
"We (Blacks) are the people
who have stood up when others
have not. We stayed with people
who vowed they'd always hate
us," she said.
Giovanni said she loved Hurri­cane
Camilia because it brought
all the people of Mississippi
together.
"Why do we wait on tragedy to
be better?" Giovanni said, "Why
wait until it hurts to change?
Can't we do better?"
Giovanni also discussed
women's rights.
Salary inequality is a real prob­lem,
Giovanni said, "because it's
like food — it's a habit we learned
years ago.
"Live on $14,000 a year as
what?" she asked. "How do you
buy your child Reeboks?"
She said it's clear humans first
stood because "women needed to
nurture, not because man needed
to kill."
Everyone should fall in love,
Giovanni said. "It's something to
do over the weekend."
"I have no fear of nuclear
annihilation. We're going to leak
ourselves to death," Giovanni
said.
She explained she lived in Cin­cinnati,
Ohio, across the street
from the largest General Electric
plant in the country. "I live at
Ground Zero.
"Everyone asks how we will
act when the bombs come — I'll
act dead," she said.
Giovanni said she liked Propo­sition
48, requiring minimum test
scores and grade point averages
for eligibility in sports. "If you
can read a play book, you can do
physics."
Giovanni said we educate peo­ple
so they have pride. "Learn to
love the people who make it
tough," she advised. "(Teachers)
are here to teach, not be your
friends.
"I look at some of the people
going to Heaven and I get a little
less interested," Giovanni said,
specifically naming Oral Roberts
and Jerry Falwell.
"God is capable of calling me —
my number's listed," she said.
People are not the oldest or
most important creatures on
earth, Giovanni said. "Why do we
destroy whales or baby seals?
How would you feel if someone
clubbed your 4-year-old child?"
Giovanni said she also opposed
taking farms away from farmers.
She said we all have a habit of
eating, and taking farms away is
taking away their lives.
Giovanni talked of growing
old: "I will not mourn my youth.
Adulthood is a joyful responsi­bility."
She said the only thing about
her life she would change, given
the chance, was to be rich. "I am a
perfect candidate to be rich," she
said.
As she said in her poem, "I am
Growing Old," "I hope to die
warmed by the life I tried to live."
continued from A-l
test.
The TSE is an oral exam,
according to Doorenbos, in which
the GTA is taped while doing
extemporaneous speaking and
reading. The tape is then sent to
Princeton to be scored.
Doorenbos said he is not cer­tain
the score of 200 will be used.
"I am writing to Princeton to
get samples of tapes scored at
200, 210, 220 and up to see what
level would be appropriate for
Auburn," he said.
The original program also
recommended that present inter­national
GTAs be required to be
interviewed at the Speech and
Hearing Clinic for pronuncia­tion,
use of language and phonet­ics
and be interviewed in the
department of foreign lan­guages,
where they will be tested
"using an appropriate test."
According to the letter, "Those
who need to improve their com­municative
skills will be required
to take FL 180, proficiency in
English for foreign students, and
those who need to improve articu­lation
will be required to do
so before they can hold a teach­ing
assistantship."
"Our goal with this program is
to provide the best educational
experience we can for our stu­dents,"
Doorenbos said. "What
we are trying to avoid is having
an international GTA who is not
understandable communicating
with students."
Doorenbos said enforcement of
the policy will affect the chemis­try
department, Engineering Col­lege
and Pharmacy School the
most because they use the most
international GTAs. Almost half,
or 76 out of 156, of those school's
GTAs are foreign.
But Dr. William E. Weidner,
head of communications dis­orders
and director of the Speech
and Hearing Clinic, doesn't
expect the number his clinic staff
works with each quarter to
increase significantly.
"We usually average about 20
foreign GTAs each quarter, but it
varies," he said. "We have the
most fall quarter and a lot of
those are through by spring."
Weidner said the clinic screens
around 30 GTAs each quarter,
with about two-thirds of them
needing help. Senior-level or
graduate students in speech
pathology work with the clinic's
clients and are closely monitored
by the faculty, according to
Weidner.
Weidner said the clinic began
working with foreign GTAs in
1983 as a result of complaints
from students who couldn't
understand their teachers. ;
"It wasn't their (the GTAs)
knowledge of English, the idioms
or sentence structure that was the
problem," he said, "it was their
ability to produce sounds."
Universities
exporting
knowledge
American universities are
exporting their knowledge and
technology to foreign institu­tions,
according to Vernon E.
Unger, head of i n d u s t r i al
engineering.
"The high percentage of inter­national
graduate students is a
reflection on the value the U.S.
places on education," Unger said.
"Why should a student get a
Ph.D. and teach when he can go
to Wall Street and make 10 times
as much money," he said.
Dr. Norman Doorenbos, dean
of the graduate school and asso-
* date Vice president for, academic
affairs, agrees that Americans
• are not ' pursuing graduate
degrees in technological fields.
"Americans lack skills in the
maths and sciences, and we don't
have them in the graduate pro­grams,"
Doorenbos said. "The
vacancies are being filled by
internationals."
Unger said if the current trend
continues then not just graduate
programs, but faculties will be
filled by internationals.
He said, "If foreigners are the
only ones getting the higher
degrees, then where do you think
we will recruit our faculty
members from?"
Unger said a majority of the
international students come to
the United States for economic
reasons.
"The standard of living in most
of their countries is so low that
coming here is a way out," he
said.
Eventually, Unger said, these
students will return to their
homeland universities, making
them better institutions.
"We are exporting our technol­ogy
to foreign universities and
soon they will surpass our uni­versities.
Then the students will
simply stay there, leaving us
with fewer qualified professors,"
he said.
"There could be very drastic
long-range consequences of this
trend."

Fund drive
may help
Ralph grow
By Kristi Francis
Assistant News Editor
By the end of 1986, the library
fund drive had raised $3.2 mil­lion,
64 percent of its total goal of
$5 million to help fund the $18.3
million expansion of Ralph
Brown Draughon Library, said
Jerry F. Smith, Alumni and
Development executive director.
The drive is ahead of schedule
since the goal was to reach $3 mil­lion
in pledges by Dec. 31, 1986.
Smith said he is not surprised
that the drive is going well.
"After all we are dealing with
Auburn people, and they realize
the importance of the project," he
said. . .
"We will raise
this money, we
are committed to
it." —Smith
The library expansion is the
number one priority set by the
administration, Smith said, and
it has been his job to recruit con­tributors.
"We will raise this
money, we are committed to it,"
Smith said.
Some of the major contributors
to the drive have been those who
have also given to the Auburn
Generations Fund. One of the

All those who pledged money to
the library fund plan to fulfill
their pledge within five years of
making the commitment. The
fund drive's goal is to reach the $5
million goal by the close of 1988.
By the end of 1987 the goal is to
reach $4 million.
In addition to the $5 million
fund drive, the $18.3 million pro­ject
will be funded by bond issues
and from part of the proceeds
from a student fee increase dur­ing
the 1985-86 school year.
Groundbreaking for the project
is tentatively set for late this fall
with completion two years later.
The construction will double

Eagle Escort Service, an escort
service for female students, is
back in operation.
Female students can call for an
escort to meet them anywhere on
campus. The male escort will
walk them to their destination on
campus.
The service has not been avail­able
since spring quarter because
of a lack of participation by both
male volunteers and female stu­dents,
according to Keith Keller,
director of the program.
Interviews for escorts were
held three weeks ago, Keller said.
The "light" turnout of volunteers
was because of a lack of publicity,
according to Keller. "Most of the
people who came found out about
the interviews through word of
mouth," he said.
Knowledge of the campus, a
good personality, the "Auburn
spirit of friendliness" and a
commitment to the safety and
welfare of others are the things
Keller said he and Greg Herman,
SGA director of student health
and safety, were looking for in
the interviewees.
After Keller and Herman make
their selections, the volunteers
are screened by the campus
police, who talk with the appli­cants
and do background checks
on them.
"The campus police have
turned down several of the people
we recommended," Keller said.
"A lot of people think all you have
to do is sign up to be an escort;
that's not true.
"We desperately need more
guys to volunteer," he said, "It is
a great way for young guys inter­ested
in SGA to get involved."
The service will continue for at
least 2-3 months when additional
campus lighting is scheduled to
be in existence, according to
Keller.
"After that,it is questionable"
and will depend on participation,
he said.
Anyone interested in the ser­vice
may call 826-2325 after 6
p.m. for information.

Hunt: business, education
should work together

professor.
By Susan Osborn
Staff Writer
Gov. Guy Hunt said business
and higher education need to
work together as he made his first
appearance before any state-wide
representation of higher educa­tion
on Feb. 12.
Speaking before the Alabama
Association of College Admi-nistators,
Hunt said, "One of the
things I want to do during my
term in office is to bring together
the education community and the
business community as one force.
I'm going to be part of that cut­ting
edge as we bring the busi­ness
community together in the
bond of friendship.
"For too long in this state,
especially when the federal
courts became involved, we said
we would step back and let the
federal courts and some of the
other organizations run educa­tion,
and we would quit providing
that leadership." Business and
education "need to form a bond of
friendship rather than to fight,"
Hunt said.
Campuses need to "take their
technology and experience and
put it on the ground for the farms
and factories of the state," Hunt
said.
Delegates representing 47
state-supported institutions gave
Hunt two standing ovations and
interrupted him five times with
applause during the meeting.
President James Martin was
the moderator of a session on pri­vate
funding. The speaker was
Roger Schifferli, vice president of
Grenzebach and Associates.
College of Liberal Arts Dean
Caine Campbell, president-elect
and program chairman, said he
designed the program on funding
because "funding is crucial
because of Reagan's possible
grant and loan cut backs."

TDs trouble
for chicken
producers
To a chicken producer TD
doesn't mean the same thing it
does to football fans. However, a
piece of technology developed for
gridiron use may pay big divi­dends
in Alabama's poultry
industry.
Though TD means touchdown
to football fans, it means Tibia
Discondaplesia to broiler-breeder
operators and also trouble. TD in
turkeys and chickens causes
lameness in young birds. The
disease causes the tibia bones in
the legs and feet not to ossify as
they do in uninfected birds.
Though the disease itself isn't
fatal, the results usually are,
because lame young birds can't
get to feed and water; there is no
known cure for the disease.
Once symptoms occur, it is too
late, and to detect the disease
prior to symptoms occurring,
requires destroying the bird or
bringing expensive, sophisti­cated
X-ray equipment into the
breeder house.
"Neither of these alternatives
is economically feasible," said
Dr. Gayner McDaniel, a poultry
researcher in the Alabama Agri­cultural
Experiment Station at
the University.
McDaniel is part of an inter­disciplinary
study of TD at
Auburn that includes Dr. Fred
Hoerr from the Alabama Diag­nostic
Laboratory and Dr. Jan
Bartels, head of radiology in
Auburn's School of Veterinary
Medicine. To examine young
birds (four to six weeks old), the
researchers are using a Lix-iscope,
which is a hand-held por­table
X-ray gun. One of its first
uses was by orthopedists to check
football injuries on the field to
determine whether a player had a
broken bone. .
Tibia Discondaplesia in
chickens is a complex disease
that may include nutrition,
stress, and breeding as causes.
"We know that TD is related to
rate of growth, so these three fac­tors
certainly play a key role in
the disease," McDaniel said. Of
the multiple contributors to TD in
chickens, genetic development
may be the easiest to pinpoint
and correct through selective
breeding, McDaniel said.
Using the Lixiscope, the
researchers can determine early
(about four weeks old) whether a
bird has the disease. Birds hav­ing
the disease are destroyed, and
those that don't are returned to
breeding stock. Subsequent test­ing
of the next generation will
determine how successful the
researchers have been in "breed­ing
out" the disease.
"We don't think the Lixiscope
will be practical for routine use in
poultry houses because of the cost
of the equipment, the training
needed to use it accurately and
the need for a radioactive iodine
source to Dower it." Bartels said.
He explained that the real need
is by basic breeders, who can use
the Lixiscope to genetically
improve the chances of getting
TD-free birds. He said that in
tests so far, some strains of
chickens have shown a 40 per­cent
infection rate. Even Cutting
the disease rate in half would
save poultrymen money.
"We don't know how much TD
costs poultrymen each year,"
McDaniel said.Bv the time birds
sare 15-16 weeks old, they have
either died from complications of
the disease or have recovered, but
either way, the poultryman pays.
Dead birds must De replaced, but
birds that recover from the effects
of the disease never reach full

"Those assumptions are that
you create a market and then you
offer a product, so that the sam­ples
of advertisements on 20/20
looked to me as if they were
encouraging sexual promiscuity
and saying that our product will
protect you from the penalties,"
he said.
Britt said that he would only
approve of public service condom
advertising that is straightfor­ward
and factual.
Britt advises people to avoid
the entire AIDS situation by
"abstinence before marriage and
sexual exclusiveness after

you had committed murder."
The emphasis in the AIDS con­troversy
right now seems to be on
the continuation of sexual per­missiveness
and ways to avoid
any penalties that might be att­ached
to it, Britt said.
"For example, right now fol­lowing
the surgeon general, we
may be assuming that if we only
use condoms we can still do any­thing
that we want to do. That
may or may not be true. We may
have to turn away from a sexu­ally
permissive society," he said.
Proposed advertisements of
condoms are capitalizing on this
sexual permissiveness of society,
Britt said.
"The television program 20/20
devoted a major segment to the
whole question of condom adver­tisements,
and it showed samples
of advertisements. My impres­sion
of those advertisements was
that they were using the same
assumptions used for fashion
designer clothes or fast foods.
Debate—
said the agriculture members.
"We should continue to support
our farmers because we are the
only nation able to feed itself
without foreign support."
Proponents of government
price support, which allows a
minimum price on agriculture
products, cited the United States
as having the lowest per capita
price of food in the world, spend­ing
approximately 17 percent of
U.S. income on food.
Opponents of price support,
who support a free market econ­omy,
argued that farmers are no
exception to risk involved in
business.
"The government does not need
to set reasonable prices on agri­culture
products. The economy

birds, McDaniel said.
Prior to the Lixiscope, there
was no practical way of diagnos
ing TD in young birds, so it was
difficult to determine whethei
birds died as a result of lameness
from the disease or from othei
maladies.
McDaniel said he believes the
three-pronged study on nutri­tional,
disease and genetic fac­tors
involved in TD will help to
eventually eliminate the disease.
Improved nutrition of suscep-table
birds, better stress related
disease control and selective
breeding will undoubtedly reduce
the incidence of the disease and
pay big dividends to poultry pro­ducers,
but researchers will prob­ably
never know exactly how the
disease was eliminated, accord­ing
to McDaniel,
"Right now," he said, "we are
excited j ust to be able to detect the
disease early with the Lixiscope-it's
the first big breakthrough we
have had in fighting TD."

Undergraduate enrollment
also dropped in the College of
Engineering, down 4.6 percent to
3,481.
The College of Veterinary Med­icine
is down 3.9 percent to 345
students this quarter.
The highest graduate enroll­ment
was in the College of Edu­cation
with 484, followed by
Engineering with 365 and Lib­eral
Arts with 264.
Other graduate enrollments
are: Agriculture, 225; Sciences

"Love and marriage are always
a risk. You risk the possibility of
hurt, but you also chance the pos­sibility
of great happiness," Britt
said.
Because marriage is a risk it is
important to observe certain
things about your future spouse
before you get married, he said.
"The moral qualities of your
future spouse to observe are gen­eral
honesty, unselfishness, the
freedom he or she allows you,
whether he or she condemns
those who don't agree with him or
her, whether he or she is willing
to admit to being wrong on some
occasions and his or her general
willingness to work," Britt said.
Another important determi­nant
of a successful future spouse
is his or her total attitude to
learning and changing, Britt
said.
"Perhaps the three most impor­tant
words in a marriage are I
love you," he said, "but the four
most important words in a mar­riage
are I may be wrong."
-continued from A-3
will do that," argued economic
members who said the idea of for­eign
dependency resulting from a
free-market economy was "an
absurd assumption."
Dr. Jim Stallings, agriculture
economics, and Dr. Randall Hol-combe,
Lowder professor of eco­nomics,
addressed questions to
the teams concerning methods of
meeting welfare demands and
stabilizing the economy by price
support or free market economy.
While economics members
offered alternatives such as allo­cating
funds directly into welfare
programs and arguing a net
increase in utility in the econ­omy,
agriculture members cited
statistics showing marginal util­ity
with price support is greater
than marginal utility lost in a
free market system.
Agriculturists argued main­taining
a "small surplus" would
protect the economy from
increasing food prices, while
economists said the consumer
pays either way because target
prices come from taxpayers
money.
"Price support will hinder for­eign
sells...if farmers are efficient
the market will provide prices
that they can produce at profit,"
the economics team said.

Who drives what on campus
By Emilie Peters
Staff Writer
If you keep your eyes peeled,
you might catch a glimpse of Dr.
James E. Martin cruising by in
his "favorite toy."
When it comes to choosing an
automobile, several Auburn
administrators have one thing in
common. They want a car they
can rely on. Most of the adminis­trators
have put their trust and
dollars into a good, old American
car.
Ann Martin, Auburn Universi­ty's
first lady, talks about her
husband's "favorite toy."
"Jim drives a 1956 Ford Thun-derbird.
He had one back in 1956
and that was his favorite car.
"He sold it, and for the last 25
years he's thought a lot about
having another one. Now he has
his favorite toy again," Mrs. Mar­tin
said.
Martin likes the style and the
way it handles, according to his
wife.
"Jim drove a Ford a while back
because his father had a Ford
auto agency," Mrs. Martin said.
Dr. George H. Emert, executive
vice president, drives a tan 1985
Ford.
"It isn't because my dad has a
Ford, and it isn't because it's
pretty. I drive a Ford because it's
dependable, cost-effective and
comfortable," Emert said.
According to Emert, the first
car he ever drove was a light blue
1941 Plymouth.
"The first car I ever owned was
a 1958 black and red Ford
Rambler cross-country station
wagon because it was very cheap.
It was also dependable and com­fortable,"
Emert said.
"I guess my favorite car I've
ever had was the station wagon
because it was extremely depen­dable,"
Emert said.
Pat Dye drives a Lincoln Town
Car and also a 4-wheel drive
truck because he has a farm he
visits frequently, according to
Jennifer Weete, Dye's assistant
secretary. His first car was a
black '39 Ford that cost $125,
Weete said.
Assistant to the president
Emily R. Leischuck said she and
her husband, Dr. Gerald S. Lei­schuck,
director of planning and
analysis, drive a 1987 Oldsmobile
98.
"We had an Oldsmobile before
and when we got tired of ours.we
traded it in for a new one. We
wanted a good, serviceable car
that is ready to go," Mrs. Lei­schuck
said.
She said her favorite car was a
beige 1962 Plymouth.
"I bought it myself.back when I
was teaching school. My
Chrysler just quit," Leischuck
said.
Her first car was a Chrysler,
she said.
"It was my mother's hand-me-down
Chrysler. She gave it to me
when I was a senior in high
school. She had driven it for
years and years. It had a blue bot­tom
and a white top. It was
wonderful because I didn't have
to take the bus anymore," Lei­schuck
said.
Dr. Lynn E. Weaver, dean of
the college of engineering, drives
an Oldsmobile.
"My wife and I have two cars. I
drive an Oldsmobile 88 because it
has a 4-cylinder engine and good
gas mileage. We use this car for
driving around town," Weaver
said.
Weaver's wife, Anita, who
works at Auburn National Bank,
drives a Nissan 280 ZX, Weaver
said.
"This is the car we take on road
trips," he said.
"My first car was a '51 Chevy.
It was a good car with a 6-
cylinder engine that was easy to
work on and make repairs,"
Weaver said.
Dr. Rupert W. Nacoste, assist­ant
professor and social psychol­ogist,
suggests a reason for the
administrators' selection of
American cars.
"It may have something to do
with their ages," Nacoste sug­gests.
"They have seen America
when its values have been ques­tioned.
They may have more of a
concern for the value and support
of American products."
"We get a sense of ourselves by
what others think about our
style. Style includes the kind of
car one drives," Nacoste
explained.
Dr. Warren W. Brandt, vice
president for academic affairs,
said his first car was a Chevrolet.
"Now I drive a Nissan because
I don't like to walk."

What's So Special About
Ware's Loose Diamond System?
Forty years ago Ware's Loose Diamond System was introd­uced...
to our knowledge the first of It's kind in Alabama. Over thirty
years of perfecting the ideal way for a person to intelligently shop for a
diamond. May we explain what we think Is special about this system?
1. What'* so special? It's a dedication at Ware Jewelers to take the time
to explain diamonds, answer quostions, show examples...In short, it's
a system of taking a person who has never before needed to know
anything about diamonds, and giving them a working knowledge.
2. What's so special about Ware's Loose Diamond System? It's being a
member of The American Gem Society...having all the equipment
needed to properly grade diamonds...allowing you to use our price
charts to check price.
3. What's so special? It's having a selection of mountings from all the
nationally known companies—Orange Blossom, Jabel, Diana, Art
Carved, Columbia...200 styles from which to select for your Ware's
Loose Diamond.
4. It's special not only to have tray after tray of mountings but having full
time trained diamond setters with a total of over 50 years experience...
to make your ring just like you want it.
5. Having a certificate with every diamond...showing the weight, color,
and perfection grade value...a chart on each stone as it appears in the
"Diamondscope". (This chart Is the finest protection for your diamond
In the future for it is a positive way to identity it In the future).
6. What's so special about Ware's prices? We believe you should buy
where you can get the best value tor your money. We also believe if you
understand grades of diamonds and Intelligently use diamond price
charts you can truly tell where your best value is. We would never try to
confuse you with claims of being a "discounter" or "wholesaler".
Grade for grade, we believe we can offer the best value you can
find...for we do not buy our diamonds from middlemen...whether they
call themselves discounters or wholesalers...we buy direct from over­seas
cutters.
7. What's so special about Ware's financing? Because we are strong in
the diamond market... we finance our own diamonds. No bank or com­mercial
credit on Ware's diamonds—even though we can offer up to 15
months to pay. Let us explain our plan Including 60 days Interest free.
8. What's so special about Ware's Loose Diamond System? Something
must be...last year Ware's sold diamond rings to customers from over
129 cities In 27 states. There sure must be something special...do you
think they would purchase from Ware's if they could have done better
elsewhere?
This is your Invitation to talk to one of Ware's trained diamond
experts. ..Downtown, Village Mall Store or Parkway, Opellka. it may be
the best time Investment you will ever make.

Turf Club could bring new industry to Auburn
By Piper Lowell
Staff Writer
Because of Auburn's proximity
to the Birmingham Turf Club
and the Auburn veterinary pro­gram,
Auburn will be an ideal
location for training and board­ing
race horses, according to Jim
Crew, owner of Southland Train­ing
Center.
Since out-of-state horse racing
and betting is not a big money
maker in Alabama, Alabama
race horse breeders and trainers
depend heavily on the Alabama
racing circuit for their business,
Crew said.
Crew chose Auburn for the site
of his stables 11 years ago. He
picked Auburn "because of the
good people, the land and the
Auburn vet school."
Crew's clientele is split
"We have reached the top in the
show horse business..." _.
—Jim Crew
between race horse breeders and
race horse owners so his stables
are not dependent on Alabama
racing; however, he said he wel­comes
the added business.
"We had reached the top in the
show horse business...and there
is just no money to be made in it,"
Crew said.
For Crew, thoroughbred racing
is "building another industry in
Alabama," and he said he is wil­ling
to support the Birmingham
Turf Club in anyway he can.
As of now, the Southland
Training Center is the only
nearby stable to accommodate
the race horses that will be com­ing
in from Kentucky, Florida
and other states for the Bir­mingham
races, but Southland is
not the only stable interested in
the business.
Roger Hornsby, owner of the
Bar-H Ranch, said he would get
involved if he had the finances to
doit.
"It would be a good business
opportunity," Hornsby said." On
top of the Vet School and being
close to Birmingham, we have
sandy soil that is good for mak­ing
practice tracks."
Most stables will not benefit
f i n a n c i a l l y from the Bir­mingham
Turf Club because they
cater to trail rides and hay rides
for Auburn and Tuskeegee Insti­tute
students, according to
Hornsby.

£7 "The purpose of counseling is
E> empower people," said Dr.
©avid M. Luterman, the author
%{ Counseling Parents of
"^Hearing-Impaired Children.
?• A professor at Emerson College
in Boston, he said that by
empowering people the counselor
helps people find their own inner
/Wisdom.
"*'' Luterman was the speaker at
the symposium in communica­tion
disorders held by the
National Student Speech, Lan­guage
and Hearing Association
Chapter at Auburn Friday. The
symposium was the sixth annual
symposium for the chapter.
Luterman said that it is impor­tant
for the parents of children
with hearing disorders to work
out their feelings for themselves
and not rely on the approval of
the counselor. "They make them­selves
feel better - you don't have
to do it for them," Luterman said.
Luterman said that the counse­lor
is there as a person for them to
talk to, not to answer questions or
to set goals or to offer approval.
Luterman said that the person
being counseled has to realize
their own power for solving their
problems.
Trust is also important for a
good counselor-patient relation­ship,
according to Luterman. The
counselor is supposed to validate
the person by making them feel
that anything they say is impor­tant,
Luterman said.
Geraldine Boddie, clinical
supervisor in speech pathology at
Auburn, is the advisor for the
chapter. Boddie said that the
University was one of two uni­versities
to receive a grant from
the Alabama Board of Examin­ers
for Speech Pathology and
Audiology for a continuing edu­cation
seminar symposium. This
grant made the symposium
possible.

In Alabama, "the Democratic

Pete Turnham.
While speaking to the Lee
County Democratic Club Mon­day
night, Turnham said Ala­bama
Democrats lost "only one
major election" in November and
that was "by default." The Bill
Baxley-Charlie Graddick con­troversy
was the reason Guy
Hunt was elected Alabama's first
Republican governor in 112
years, Turnham said.
Hunt "is a good man," Turn­ham
said. "He will do good for
Alabama" if the Democratic
Legislature works with him, he
said.
Turnham said, "I will do all in
my power to work with him while
he is there for four years."
The two-party system in Ala­bama
is "one sided," Turnham
said. In the Alabama Legislature
there are 89 Democratic represen­tatives,
16 Republican represen­tatives,
30 Democratic senators
and 5 Republican senators.
Turnham also spoke on educa­tional
funding. State budget
hearings began Tuesday.
"Educational funding follows
the nature of the economy"
because it is based on sales and
income taxes, Turnham said.
"Until the property tax is the
primary base for education, Ala­bama
will not have a stable base
for education."
Alabama ranks 12th out of the
15 Southern states in educational
support.
The state's education money is
split 60-40, Turnham said. K-12
education receives 60 percent and
colleges receive 40 percent.
The college's percentage is
increasing because the state is
realizing higher education's
importance in attracting indus­try,
Turnham said.

Unpopular taxes would help education
By Kathy Kamburis
Staff Writer
State Sen. John Rice, a native
of Lee County, said that a raise in
homestead taxes is his perfect
plan to get the state's "messy
education budget" back to
normal.
In conjunction with National
Vocational Education Week, Rice
spoke to University faculty and
students concerning the prora­tion
of Alabama's education
fund.
Rice said $84 million has
already been removed from the
state's vocational education
budget.
"Proration has a big impact in
our community," Rice said. "We
lose teachers, programs, empha­sis
on programs, but most of all
postive mental attitudes."
Rice asked the audience to have
an open mind about what he
called his "tax talk."
"I know taxes are not a popular
issue," Rice said. "But if you want
the services, you must be willing
to give the money."
Rice's solution to Alabama's
deficient education fund is not to
raise sales taxes, which is usually
done to collect capital.
Instead, Rice suggested to raise
homestead taxes from the 10 per­cent
assessment bracket to the 20
percent assessment bracket. He
also said that the money should
be raised locally and should
emphasize local identity.
"If we move this tax up, we
won't have to worry about fund­ing
local schools for about seven
years," Rice siad.
According to Rice, there are
two reasons the state leaders
have not already raised this tax.
He said the first is because politi­cians
want control of the money
and the second is because lobby­ists
want power.
"We need to take this money
(taxes) from the state politicians
and give it to the local people,"
Rice said.
Rice concluded by saying that
Alabama could be number one in
more things than just national
guard and football if only people
would become informed before
voting against these taxes.
"If you aren't growing, then
you are dying," Rice said, "And
we are dying. Just look at our
state budget which is even lower
than last year."

Quest to inform
Why are you reading this right now?
A newspaper's duty is to inform
the public. In performing its duty,
the newspaper must ask t h e correct
questions, record the answers and
accurately present the results.
The P l a i n s m a n , since the
inception of the hotel-conference
center in 1984, had asked the
administration how much it would
be spending to lease the continuing
education center (CEC) adjacent to
the hotel.
Answers ranged from "We a re still
negotiating," to "It's all private
investment."
Then, from an outside source, The
P l a i n s m a n stumbled upon the
answer: The University would be
paying $700,000 a year for 30 years
from the scheduled opening of the
CEC in September 1988.
James Adams III, president of
Algernon Blair Inc., said the leasing
of the center for a substantial
amount of money was "old news"
and that there was no story, but
would not tell The Plainsman the
amount the University was paying.
The amount was news to Univer­sity
Relations, The Montgomery
Advertiser, the Associated Press
and to, at least, two members of t he
Board of Trustees.
When asked to confirm the
amount the University was paying,
Vice President for Business and
Finance Rhett Riley did confirm the
$700,000 annual payment, but said
The Plainsman could not look a t t he
c o n t r a c t because it was being
recorded in the court records by
attorneys in Birmingham, which
would take two to three weeks. When
The Plainsman pressed the subject,
Riley produced the contract in a
week.
In trying to confirm one answer,
The Plainsman happened upon
some answers to questions it didn't
ask.
The Plainsman discovered the
first proposal made by Blair in 1984
was rejected by t h e University, and
while the administration was still
negotiating with B.J. Allison of
North Carolina, the four fraternity
houses were torn down without a
final contract or even a viable
proposal.
It was also discovered that a
major "contributor" to the project,
the Dixons of Andalusia, were, in
fact, investors.
Some more questions t h e adminis­tration
refuses to answer: How
much did the Dixons invest? Who
was the past president of Algernon
Blair? Why has President James
Martin been in such a rush to get a
hotel-conference center?
Why are these questions unan­swered?
Solutions to problems
As Budget and Finance Commit­tee
cuts and slashes its way into its
second week of hearings, problems
are beginning to mount.
The committee began hearings
with the unenviable task of cutting
$133,728 from student activity
budget requests. Why is there so
much to cut? The reason is two-fold.
The first, and probably most
important, is t h a t student activity
fees are a flat r a t e of your tuition,
not a percentage. As tuition
increased throughout the years,
student activity fees remained a flat
rate. The cost of funding activities
goes up, but the only way total fees
increase is in t h e amount of students
Auburn has.
If activity fees were a percentage
of tuition, then money available to
these activities would be more. The
P l a i n s m a n a s k s t h e S t u d e nt
Government Association and Uni­v
e r s i t y a d m i n i s t r a t i o n to look
closely into changing the way stu­dent
activity fees are acquired.
The second, and perhaps more
complex problem with budget and
finance, is t h a t organizations have
padded respective budget requests
so t h a t when cut, t h e programs will
not suffer as badly. The other organ­izations
requesting honest budgets
get hurt in t h e end.
With the organizations knowing
there isn't enough money to go
around, they must vie for t h e avail­able
funds. Some will do anything to
get more money, and it's obvious
there isn't enough money to prop­erly
fund all budgets. But be fair to
the others, who have not asked for
tremendous increases.
Money is tight in student activity
fees. But The Plainsman feels t h a t if
activity fees were a percentage of
tuition and if all organizations
would submit reasonable requests to
the money available, then the SGA
would have less problems handling
the student organization's budget
requests.
Procrastination
The field previously used by the
rugby and soccer teams to practice
has been declared off-limits. A fence
has been erected around the area,
much nicer than the old one.
Aesthetically-pleasing bushes have
found their way around the fence.
The problem with the field is that
there is a possibility it may have
been used as a chemical waste dump
in the 1950s. Some of these soccer
and rugby players have run up and
down this field for four years before
hearing about this rumor.
The field may not have any dan­gerous
chemicals. Let us hope it
doesn't. But the fact remains that
good old University procrastination
and red tape have slowed the pro­cess
of rinding out if the field is
contaminated.
Most of the people involved did
not know of this possibility until
someone remembered the site had
been used to dump materials. The
Plainsman can condone that.
But what we can't condone is t he
length of time it takes to find out if
this is true. Don't worry, we won't
know anytime soon. But the fence
and the bushes sure look nice.

Why is there air?
To blow up volleyballs.
—Bill Cosby
The great philosophical concerns of
Auburn today are:
—Why is there no podium or chalk in
classrooms for the teachers that use
them?
—Why do the numbers on the backs of
the desks in Haley Center never match
the classroom you happen to be sitting
in?
—Why do students sit in the halls
before class when the social center of
Western Civilization, the concourse, is a
scant 20 yards away?
—Why are quad and hill dorms named
numerically, alphabetically and by
name?
—Why are there always two toilet
tissue dispensers in stalls, but both are
always empty?
—Why is there no Phi Beta Kappa
chapter at Auburn? For those of you who
don't know what it is, that's probably
why.
—Why is there no Bo Jackson Avenue,
or even Pat Sullivan Lane? Why, I'd
even settle for Al Del Greco Alley.
—Why does anyone commit them­selves
to live in Mag?
—Why is Bullard Hall sitting there,
used as storage space?
—Why does the plastic on Chefs Club
cards peel off, forcing you to buy another
card?
—Why doesn't every professor have a
key to unlock the windows?
—What did Brent Fullwood think
about his classes?
—Why aren't seats given to students
who have to stand for every football
game?
—And what about those basketball
seats now that students are going to the
games?
—Why do students submit themselves
to the torture of wearing a coat and tie, or
dress and heels, to football games?
—Why can Auburn expand its sta­dium,
but not its academic reputation?
Quick, somebody hit the needle before
I get stuck on the stadium and athletics.
Thank you.
—Why doesn't everyone write some­thing
funny for their height, weight and
hometown on student ID cards next
year? Mine this year reads 5*2", 298 lbs.
from Joliet Correctional. Name? Elwood
Blues.
—Why does Harry's sell cheap beer
every day?
—Why do we go listen to Telluride for
the 20th time in the last two years? Do
we think they'll play something new?
—Why isn't anyone paying attention?
—Why are student activity fees a flat
rate and not a percentage of tuition?
—Why is there no Independents
Week? Beer funneling and tequila snort­ing
could be good events.
—Why are you sitting in class right
now reading this? Why is this captivat­ing
you more than the topic your profes­sor
is discussing?
—Why did Harvey's have to close
down?
—Why are cheerleaders so happy?
—Why is the food served at fraternity
houses so bad?
—With all the money the athletic
department has, why can't we build a
swimming pool big enough for our swim
team and give that watering hc!c to the
students?
—Why doesn't anyone know what the
deal is with parking tickets? More
importantly:
—Why do Auburn students lead the
entire universe in getting them?
—Why don't we have a parking deck?
—Why don't we know what goes on
behind closed doors of Samford?
—Why doesn't Auburn play North­west
Carolina in every sport?
—Why have you not done your home­work
all quarter long?
—Why is 15 hours the cut-off in paying
tuition?
—Why doesn't anyone vote in SGA
elections?
—Why does everyone study at the
library and Haley Center? More
importantly:
—Why does the copy machine on the
first floor of the library spit your change
out onto the ground?
—Robin Williams once said, "Why are
there no black wines?" Why aren't there
more drinking places at Auburn?
—Why can't you find half the books
you need in the library?
—Why does everyone eat Krystal's
when they get drunk?
—Why is Chris Roush editor of The
Plainsman? Why not.
Could Auburn run way the customer wants?

Stephanie
HUNT
I finally figured out why this Univer­sity
is run the way it is.
When the administration, Board of
Trustees members, etc., were in school,
they made it to all their business classes
on profit-making and cutting corners,
but they must have taken customer rela­tions
spring quarter and gotten a terrific
tan. (Stretch your imagination, they
might have been tan once.)
The people who pay the most to be here
are the ones who are treated the worst. I
guess it would make an interesting term
paper — how a business run like that
stays in business — but it's absurd in
real life.
Seriously, would you go to a store or a
mall where you had to park (a lot)
farther away than the employees? Off
hand I'd say no, but I do.
Teachers and graduate teaching
assistants park right outside the doors
to e very class building on campus, while
the ones who are responsible for making
their jobs necessary park at the stadium
and cohseiimitutrlesSTJf coutseithefeTS aJ
game, in which case they have to park at
the class buildings).
Also, I know few people who go to a
grocery store and buy RC Cola, but
that's what they give us at our cafete­rias.
There must be an obligation of
some sort that makes this necessary, but
what I don't like is that we have no cho­ice.
Where else can you go in this town on
a Chefs Club?
And what about running a business
on the days the customer wants? Most
businesses aren't open in the middle of
the night, early morning or Sundays
because customers don't want to shop
then.
Well students don't want to be in
school in December — we'd like to start
in August and quit at Thanksgiving. We
even told the administration that by
vote, but they don't care. They won't
even consider it.
They said something about a longer
school year being unfair to teachers.
First, there is no possible way the 90
percent of the students who voted for the
change support a longer school year. But
more importantly, did the administra­tors
take math spring quarter too? Come
on guys, the number of days added in
August are taken off in December. And it
won't affect the rest of the year.
But wait, there's more and it gets even
more absurd: Would you go into a store,
hand the'sales clerk your money and tell
him or her to give you whatever it is that
they like? Of course you wouldn't. But
you do it every time you pay your tuition.
A small percentage of that money goes
to the campus radio station which pref­ers
to play what its employees want to
hear instead of what the customer
wants.
I'm confused.
I thought "the customer was always
right," "putting the customer first" and
"service with a smile" were the para­digms
of business. Maybe we should
send these boys to paradigm school.
I know this next statement might
shock and offend a few non-students out
there, but, gasp, I pay you, which means
I'm supposed to have the say so.
Ideally, if you don't run things like I
want I move somewhere else. And if
enough customers are unhappy and
leave, then you go out of business.
That will never happen, and I don't
want it to, but it's an interesting threat
to ponder. If they push us hard enough,
we might "get mad as hell and not take it
anymore." And then there goes tuition,
state funding, football games and our
a d m i n i s t r a t o r s have nothing to
administrate.
Maybe they could use the spare time to
take a customer relations course.

Discovering perfect and only true talent—study break
Piper
LOWELL
It's true what they say about there
being a silver lining behind every cloud
and all that rot. I must extend my
thanks, to the man who invented the
final examination. Finals have allowed
me to discover and perfect my one true
talent...the study break.
The creative mind can think of 101
ways to avoid studying for finals.
Instead of going into 101 things to do, I
will break down some of my favorite
Study Avoidance Techniques into a few
basic, easy-to-understand categories.
Now house work is never my favorite
thing, but this is the best study break
because there is always something to
clean. Three times a year, I iron and
hang up my t-shirts (which not only
requires finding my iron, but also clean­ing
out my closet to make room for the
shirts), damp mop the floor by hand and
scrub anything I can get my hands on.
My GPA may stink, but oh, how the
bathtub sparkles!
When I first got to Auburn, I thought
this cleaning-around-finals thing was a
unique personality quirk, but I have
found that students all over Auburn dust
the backs of shelves and clean out
vegetable crispers during the last week
of the quarter.
The next category is food. This one is
good because it is justifiable (I mean,
everyone has to eat, right?), and if you
plan enough, you can have each meal
last at least an hour and a half. Since
you may be too busy studying to grocery
shop or cook, eating out is the only
option. Always go out to eat in groups of
three or more. Not only will it take longer
to be seated and get your food, but you
spend up to 20 minutes trying to get
three or more people to decide on an
acceptable restaurant. This works even
in Auburn where the restaurant selec­tion
is, um, somewhat limited.
Some of us, author included, cannot
afford to eat out every day for a week; so,
we get bonus study break time because
we have to decide what we want to make
for dinner, shop for the ingredients,
make our meals and then wash up
afterward. Washing up brings us back to
category one. Handwash and dry the
dishes individually and then carefully
put them up. You get extra points if you
decide to rearrange your dish cupboard
at this time.
Cravings for ice cream, pizza or pop­corn
also fall into the food category. At
this point, I would like to thank The
Flush for being open till midnight, and
Krystals and Alabama Steak and Pan­cake
House for being open for 24 hours.
The last big category is communica­tion.
At finals, I write people that I
haven't seen in years. I even write my
mom and dad during finals.
The telephone is deadly for studying
because you have almost instant access
to anyone else with a phone. I call people
I don't like to see if they are studying and
ask how they have done on their finals
so far. I've never done this, but I was in
the room when I heard a friend call Foy
Union just to tell them they were doing a
good job.
Visiting falls under the "communica­tion
category." Just run into any
unlocked door in your dorm or apart­ment
building and see if you can get
anyone to go see a movie with you. If you
are a good conversationalist, this exer­cise
can take up to two hours.
If none of the slightly productive
study breaks appeal to you, the televi­sion
is your best friend. Especially if it is
the season for any decent sport, and
even if it's not, the idiot box has enough
for the mind to shut off.
For a study break in its simplest, most
elegant form, find a flat, relatively soft
study area and lie down. Then try to read
your government book. You'll be asleep
in five minutes.
Some people have tried to dissuade me
from my talent by saying that this is just
another way of procrastinating, but pro­crastinating
is such an ugly word. Let's
just call it a study break.

Life in the country not pretty depiction
Editor, The Plainsman:
I would like to enlighten some of the
people out there that farming and life in
the country isn't the charming pastoral
existence depicted by Christopher Mar­lowe
or the Waltons.
In my conversations with fellow stu­dents,
I usually mention growing up on a
small farm. My listener adopts a forlorn
look, smiles and sighs, "You're so lucky.
It must be nice living out on a farm, such
a peaceful existence." Later, while per­suing
a travel dictionary, I ran across an
ad urging individuals to get away from
it all, to come spend time on an actual
farm, and enjoy the wholesome every­day
activities and labors of the
agrarian!
It continues celebrating the great feel­ing
one gets after hauling hay and brea­thing
sweet, country air. After having
hauled hay, the only feeling I have is
fatigue, and dust and diesel fuel aren't
the sweetest vapors in the world.
"People that own and tend animals
seem so much more serene and at peace
with themselves," was probably the
funniest line I heard in a movie recently.
Working with animals is one of the most
stressing situations for a farmer. They
never seem to go where you want them
to, and livestock often will resist and do
their best to counteract every move you
make. Tempers grow short and flare.
You're out of breath and could just care
less whether that stupid steer, sheep
(they have other names, but decorum
does not permit me to repeat them) gets
its innoculation or not. If you suffer from
hypertension, such activities could be
hazardous to your health.
You will encounter malfunctions if
you work with farm equipment. And,
more than likely, someone will have to
go to town to pick up a new part. You
pray all the way back you picked up the
right one. Operations are at a standstill
until the tractor or combine is fixed, and
delays cost time and money.
Speaking of money, there has been a
growing awareness of the financial dif­ficulties
that people who farm must face.
These difficulties put more pressure and
strain on the farmer than the most tax­ing
labor. There is rarely a let up; money
and finances must be figured into
everything.
To further add to this not-so-pretty
depiction, farming families have to face
personal problems that other people
face. Divorce, child abuse, suicide, it
exists there among the picturesque
countryside. It's just a little harder to dig
it up and bring into light sometimes.
Farming has its share of hard work, hay
rides and sunsets, but sometimes people
