TYIDD ANTHONY lVlAYe.President elect of the Black student union l The Black Student Union I feel has made marked strides in the goals that they have tried to achieve. They did this without great support of the majority of people which was one reason why there was a lot of apathy and so-called not caring of what the BSU dldg X because it didn't involve the majority of people. Upon running for elected office, I went out with the idea in mind and the goals to help everyone strive for academic motivation, social awareness, and cultural awareness. With these goals in mind, we feel that they can be attained because everyone is aware of them and they can add something of significance. l as President plan to implement and sponsor a number of activities which will not deal just with black students on campus. We feel that it is something that we must do to help educate the white students on campus who have been brainwashed for such a long time by the history books and are not aware of the culture of Black people. There are a lot of myths that are being perpertrated throughout this University about Black people, and what we are all about. We have made efforts to dispel these myths. We feel now that we have a lot to offer this University culturally and that it is the educational process that everyone will benefit from. I plan to make sure that we attain our goal of academic excellence, social awareness, and cultural awareness within our selves and to extend what we have to offer to the rest of the SMU Community and the surrounding community. in ua., r, 55 BILL BYLAND My feet are sore.

'F I r . gg , I Michael J.,Svsl0 g g ,Francis L Tanzella Rodman E Taylor Jr determined by whether or not we become part of a State University system. That makes the future very hard to predict because if we did become part of a state system, then the school may be called upon to specialize more than it has up to now. But those decisions aren't going to be made locally and it's really hard to tell right now what the status is of the state university system is because the fiscal crisis in the State has taken everybody's attention for at least the past 6 months...So it's hard to say where we're going to go, though I think we'll definitely get larger. U TERRI CABRAL l think that SMU has great possibilities I've worked a lot on campus and have been in alot here on campus -- Theater Company, the TOFlCH...just different areas of the campus. l ve met a lot of people, know a lot of people, and l have seen the campus grow just living in the area. l came out here when SMU was smaller, in the 60's when it was one building. Each year as I've come out here it's grown and grown. l'm glad to see the new fine arts building is being built now and finally and hopefully there will be more emphasis on the Arts in this area because I feel that there is a great need in this area for performing arts. What l plan to do later on is, after l have enough experience in theater and have established myself, a music degree and all, I would like to come back to this area and teach children. l have been doing that now and l would like to see the kids in this area get into arts, into music, theater.to get into dance,visual arts and performing arts and I hope that SMU will expand its horizons in this area. l plan to come back for the music degree when and if it comes in '76. l'd like to see the arts grow here at SMU mainly 'cause that's what l'm really into.

QQ ADtl'1Ol1y C. Alfl9l'O Jgoanne ,Nl Alfonge RlCHARD J. WARD, Dean College of Business and lndustry Students at SIVIU have the unique opportunity to become catalysts and innovative leaders in the surround- ing community. With a college degree, each person has developed a broadened capacity to think wisely, to seek wider horizons, to educate others into productive courses of action and beneficial change. You take with you the ability to perceive, to choose among complex alternatives and to decide to act in an intelligent and ordered manner. Above all-and this distinguishes you from the less fortunate who have been unable to add to their edtcational experience-you should have developed an insatiable curiosity about the world around you, about your fellow man, and about the particular envir- onments, both social and on the job, in which you will live and function. You are among the less than 50'XvOf young people your age in the United States with a college degree. Moreover, you are among the less than 102, of young people your age in the world who have a college degree. Your degree, therefore, carries with it not only the honors and the broader capacity to produce constructive change and to enjoy life in its many remificationsg it also has created, I believe, a serious obligation for you to use your broader capacity and ability to organize and formulate problems and means to solve them. Finally, though you may think this an exaggeration, your education brings with it a duty to educate others with whom you come in contact who have not had the benefits of this experience, and the ability to demon- strate both sounder judgement and moral courage to lead others into more rational as well as productive pursuits.
