Transcript The new moderation reigned supreme: people were drinking less, smoking not at all, and only having sex with permanent partners. Bill Clements handily defeated incumbant Mark White in a nasty governor's race that touched on everything except the issues. After the death of college basketball star Len Bias, cocaine abuse — specifically crack abuse — became the biggest media scare since herpes. The Texas Department of Corrections was at one time releasing as many as 500 prisoners a week early due to overcrowding. The White House almost fell apart as Iran-scam rocked the National Security Council nearly to its foundation. Ronald Reagan, the country's first 'Teflon" president, escaped remarkably unscathed. UH Budget Advisory Council proposed to eliminate the College of Technology and the Department of Human Resources and Consumer Sciences. Students were only mildly outraged. Essentially the feeling on campus was that the whole world was going to hell in a handbag. 13
