Wednesday'and Thursday of this week, Parks, a political science major and a journalism minor, will be in a runoff with John Shackelford, an. Ennis senior, for the SGA presidency. "A couple of people motivated me to run for student body he said. During his campaign the grandson of Mr.

and Mrs. J. R. Parks of Denton said his position and its relationship with the university should be "based on the adversary system, very much like you might find in a courtroom." "But I'm not an out-in-the- streets radical," he said. "It seems these days the university is being run more like a business" than an educational institution.

He cited the increased impoundment fee for' illegally parked cars which has gone up from last spring to $25 this fall as an example. In his position of SGA president, should he be elected, Parks plans to act more as a researcher than as an ambassador of goodwill taking "fund-raising junkets with the (NTSU) president." "I won't have the time," he added. He said he would "have access to facts and figures the average student doesn't have access to." Parks said past legislative measures passed by the student assembly have been returned by the President's Cabinet because of a lack of research on the given program, such as a cooperative book store for students.
