In a compilation of answers from women at Elmshurst College in Illinois and at the universities of Georgia and Louisville, three sociologists told an American Psychological Association conference Aug. 13 that campus females think men who look "rugged but also cuddly" are the most desirable. "The most attractive male face was intermediate rather than extremely mature or baby?faced," said sociologists Michael Cunningham and Anita Barbee of the University of Louisville and Carolyn Pike of North Carolina State University in a summary of recent research into what kind of men college women like. t .i i: .... > r 1:1? .J .... in uic siuuics, wuinoii assuciaicu icaiuica 11R.0 iuuuu ia^ca, uun brows, large eyes and thin noses with "babyishness."

Citing ethical concerns about former University of Iowa Student Body President Pepe Rojas?Cardona, student leaders of all the Big Ten school except Northwestern University and the University of Michigan quit the fledgling Big Ten Student Association, which Rojas-Cardona founded, the last week of July, and formed a new group called Net 10. Iowa state auditors found that Rojas-Cardona had used student funds for alcohol and personal travel, for a meal that cost $100, and for renting a Cadillac. BTSA defectors also cited Rojas-Cardona's plans to get the BTSA to collect commissions for gathering student credit card applications for a bank, saying the fund?raising tactic would divert the group, founded last January, from its efforts to exchange information about campus and student government issues. High school dropout rates inaccurate, poll says WASHINGTON ? One of four Americans drop out of high school, but "about half of them eventually return to some kind of classroom and complete their studies," according to Michael McLaughlin in Alio* 1 ^ in Q etllHt; tf/YT tKn * -~e># ivi uiv tuuauvauvg racnuigc ruuilUaUUIl. The report said the widely reported "dropout crisis" is "greatly exaggerated," resulting from inconsistencies in the ways states report their dropout rates.

Iraq on Sunday freed about 55 Americans who were evacuated from the U. S. Embassy in Kuwait, and the U. N. secretarygeneral said he will meet soon with a top Iraqi official to discuss the Persian Gulf crisis. The freed Americans, the wives and children of U. S. diplomats, left Baghdad by car and were expected to reach Turkey by Sunday night. The women were forced to leave their husbands behind because Iraq says the envoys have lost their diplomatic immunity and will be detained as hostages. U. N. chief Javier Perez de Cuellar will meet Thursday in Jordan with Iraqi Foreign Minister Torin Avi-7 "trt pn(Tf?arp in a full PYrhnncrp. nf views on the crisis," the secretary-general's spokeswoman, Nadia Younes, said Sunday.

Ms. Younes said she could not say whether any other leaders would attend the meeting in Amman. Perez de Cuellar first proposed negotiations with Aziz on Saturday while traveling in Bogota, Colombia. National security adviser Brent Scowcroft said Sunday in Washington that the Bush administration "would have no problem" with a mediation effort by Perez de Cuellar. But Scowcroft said the United States wants Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait. After that, he said, "We're prepared to talk about anything." Meanwhile in the Persian Gulf, U.
