TSC TAMALADA: STAFF GETS MARIACHIS AND YUMMY TAMALES

(Ed.'s Note: At noon today, the staff and workers of Texas Southmost College got an acknowledgement of the gratitude the board and administration has for their year-long efforts at the community college. As they ate tamales with all the trimmings, a local mariachi made its entrance singing traditional Mexican ballads.

It was unusually cold at noon when the tamalada was held at the Jacob Brown Civic Center, but those who braved the cold got a treat they won't soon forget. With new president Dr. Jesus Roberto Rodriguez serving tables and the members of the board present, the event lasted until the goodies were all gone. TSC now boasts of a student population of about 6,000, a sign that the days of the UTB/TSC separation is behind the community college. Saludos to all!)
