Off campus
Presently 487 regular or
part-time student live off
campus. Thin doe not include
married or graduate student.
In the two men's dorms not
inoludlng the barracks there are
approximately 60 vacancies.
Although there Is no exact count
for the girls' dorms numerous
girls have rooms to themselves
and most of the dorms have
vacant rooms.
To obtain permission to live
off-campus the student must
have 90 hours or be 21 live with
an adult relative have financial
problems or present a doctor's
permit.
Since not all students fit these
requirements there is another
grouping labeled "specie.!."
These special students must
counsel with either the dean of
men or the dean of women to
gain the title.
Apparently it is easier to
acquire the title during the fall
semester of sehool beeause of
the close quartern resulting from

his "Public Interest Research
Group" aid in deeper research
and action strategies.
Nader the man live up to
and beyond his own code of
safety. He will not swallow
anything that is ground stuffed
proeessed or tounced by addi-
tives. He will travel only on
major airlines or In the ease of
Texas International will fly only
the larger planes. Once on the
ground he drives only in stint
of 0 mile at a time saving hi
voice for.speaking by remaining
silent throughout.
Picked last year as the number
one choice of speaker by the
ACC student body Nader finally
agreed to sign Dee. 16 with S.A.

suasion. The Princeton and
Harvard law graduate is the ted

living rises
the influx of freshmen and
some of the plaeea which were
approved would not have gained
that status had over-crowding on
campus not been a problem.
Because of this over-extending
of privileges some new housing
rules for women have been
adopted. Under the new rule the
owner of the residence must live
in Abilene and be able to check
mysterious occurrences or occur
rences that might conflict with
school rules.
However for every 100
petitions granted there are 100
others whloh are marked as
invalid.
