In line for food stamps
Many students qualifying
By Mary O. Ratcliffe
■ The Red and Black
U. of Georgia
Roughly 100 U. of Georgia students
receive federal food stamps — commonly
thought to be for welfare mothers and
destitute families only — estimates the
local food stamp supervisor
Sid Jessup of the Clarke County
Department of Family and Children
Services said students are “classic" can
didates for food stamps because of their
low incomes and few resources.

The I)FCS defines a student as a per
son between 18 and 59 who isn't disabled
and who is enrolled in college at least
half-time
Every single-person household must
prove it receives less than $648 in income
each month (before taxes) and has
resources of $2,000 or less to qualify for
food stamps.
Income includes wages, social security
benefits and student financial aid
Resources include cash, checking and
savings accounts, property and cars
Eligibility is determined bv case work
ers during in-depth interviews with
applicants at the local DFCS.
“Students might find everything too
much to handle financially,” Chakmanian
said. ‘If they meet one of the six special
requirements, they may be eligible for
food stamps *
The requirements include: having a
paid job, participating in a work-study
program, receiving a welfare check, hav
ing been placed in school by the Job
Training Partnership Act, having a child
younger than 6 living at home and caring
for a child between 6 and 12 when no
other adequate care is available
Chakmaman said that proving eligi
bility is not an easy process. Receipts,
paycheck stubs, income tax returns and
bank statements must be shown to the
case worker. The interview process is
thorough, personal and sometimes
‘embarrassing'
“It lowers self-esteem incredibly," she
said. ‘It’s difficult to say I need help ' *
Women
Continued from page 8
In my opinion there are, indeed, some
forms of combat that qualified women
could be assigned. The operating word
here is “qualified."
If a woman has the right personality
traits for this type of combat — the abil
ity and motivation to kill another human
being with hand weapons — she could be
as successful as a man
Women could be combat helicopter
! pilots. Courage was the ovending char
acteristic I witnessed in helicopter pilots,
and certainly courage does not reside
only in men's souls.
I think women could also be door gun
ners on helicopters.
Couldn't women be snipers as well?
There is no reason why a man should be
better at picking off an enemy soldier at
great distances.
There are, however, some types of com
bat assignments that should be restrict
ed to men. the M-60 machine gunner and
his partners the ammunition earner, the
radio operator with his gear on his back,
the grenade launcher, flame throwers,
combat bulldozer operators and artillery
and mortar units.
There is another combat unit to which
women should not be assigned: the
ground troops.
How do I describe battle scenes with
mud and rain, seuring 130-degree heat,
40-degree below-zero cold, no sleep or
food for days on end, heavy gear, long
marches and your friends dying in front
of you?
Do women have what it takes for this
particular type of combat? I think not.
