COLLEGE BRIEFS Murders leave colleges in state of panic The murders of five college students in and around the University of Florida within three days have left the campus community in a state of panic, provoking some students to leave campus and others to hold protective slumber parties. "We can't emphasize too much that students and other members of tK n + <-v In ^ ? J - ? '? ? ? C uiv I'Uiiiuiuiiiiy nave nj uc A.ecniy auu intensely aware oi security issues," said John Lombardi, President of UF, which invited offcampus students to move into newly secured on-campus dorms. All five of the slain students, two of whom attended nearby Santa Fe Community College, were found within two miles of the UF campus. University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana students also have raised concerns and complaints about safety in the wake of an Aug. 13 murder of a student in her off-campus apartment. Texas official wants to close black university Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby suggested the state close financially ailing, predominantly black Texas Southern University Aug. 17. "If you believe in an integrated society," Hobby said at a legislative committee meeting, "you cannot also be intellectually honest and advocate black universities any more than you can advocate white universities." Former TSU Regent Mack Hannah replied, "I am shocked. He is dead wrong about Texas Southern." Rutgers sanctions ROTC for homosexual ban Rutgers University official David Burns said Aug. 22 that his school had become the first in the country to stop giving scholarships to Reserve Officer Training Corps students because of ROTC's policy banning homosexuals from the military. Following ROTC's ultimate futile efforts in March to retrieve scholarship money from students at Washington University in St. Louis, Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who it ultimately found out were gay, more than 20 campus presidents signed letters to the Pentagon asking it to change its policy. None of the schools, however, has yet carried out a threat to disassociate from the ROTC program. NOTHING IMPRESSES AN EMPLOYER LIKE DROPPING OUT OF SCHOOL EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE.
