The Board of Visitors of the University adopted a resolution empowering President Edgar F. Shannon Jr. to conduct the study. Out of the present enrollment of 7,800 students at the Univer sity only 10'% are women. These are seeking degrees in all pro grams except those leading to the bachelor of arts degree in the college. The Cavalier Daily conducted a survey among the students and (ut of 26 interviewed only two had favorable statements. The advocates said girls should be admitted "because it's not a normal cultural situation without them being here. We learn to live with them socially but not on a normal day to day basis." The trend of student opinion, however, was wholeheartedly op posed to any plan for the admis sion of women. but some students saw it as a fruitless fight. As one graduating student said, "It is hard to imagine the con text of the University remaining the same with the admission of women. but the pressure for it is obvious and it is increasingly hard to resist.

Other students, the majority in The Cavalier Daily poll, would not even consider it. "I think it would undermine the traditions of the University. If we admit women the Univer sity will never receive any alum nus funds from me," said a third year man. "I am completely opposed," continued another, "it would de teriorate the atmosphere, and make it a 'state-U'." "It would not bring about any thing but problems. The Univer sity would lose the traditions it values most highly," said one sec ond-year man. Coeds War AU S TI N, Tex. (ACP) - A small but increasing number of University of Texas coeds have decided to get in step with the "What's Happening" centers of the world and to leave men they pass twisted like pretzels, strain ing for a good, long, lasting look," Peter Heyne writes in the D)aily Texan. These are the coeds who have the courage - hut often not the proportions-to wear mini skirts and dresses. Essesntially, a "mini" is a gar ment whose hemline ranges from three (mini-mini) to seven inches (maxi-mini) above the knee. It gained popularity two years ago on London's C a r n a h y Street where the Mod look still reigns. In .stern cities and in (ali forniat, the mini 1eook is not ontly in but is also fairly well estab lished. lloweer, in the South, including ''exa , Austin, and con sequently the university, women are suffering from a henline gap that is being closed not much faster thant grandma can thread rope through a needAle's eye. Why do c o e d s wear minis? Other than strictly for fashion - "Simply to attract attention," says a former coed. "A lot of girls are husband-hunting and Proposed text," he saidI, "'and they would definitely be expected to attend class." He( saidI he feels certain the sy'stem would work, at least in his upper' series courses, becaiuse stu dlents in these courses see them as bleing "o4f definite value in their caree'rs."

Answering his own question, Black continued: "It is not the university's im personality or the abundance of large lectures. Nor is it the uni versity's overabundance of vir gins. What is basically wrong at our school is the lack of good literature on the walls of the men's lavatories. "the walls are completely cov ered with filth. Even the artwork is poor. I would go so far as to say that it is below high school standard. It just lacks class.

Professors agree, however, that after a while "it all becomes part of the scenery." Like all innovations, minis have their hazards. Wearers say chief among them are bending over and sitting down "in a way as not to be lurid." Most of theni avoid difficulty by slipping into light t i g h t s or textured stockings which p r e v e n t over-exposure while still keeping the subject interesting. Why haven't more coeds joined the mini crowd? First, the South is one to three years beind other parts of the world in fashion, say clothing buyers on the Drag. Second, while university males enjoy mini-watching, they are not yet ready to see their own girls outfitted in one. Third, in at least one frosh dorm, advisers tell girls not to wear them. In sororities, group standards prevail. Fourth, not every coed can suitably wear one.
