OKLAHOMA MEMORIAL UNION

Union to add new eatery, market in the spring Students left with fewer choices, longer lines RACHEL MONTGOMERY Campus Reporter

Lines for Oklahoma Memorial Union restaurants twisted through seating areas and stretched into walkways, with some students front to back, unsure of where the lines were leading. While the union is always busy around meal times, this semester it seems to have gotten worse, or so say some students who frequent the union in this flux semester during the construction of a new union eatery.

The new dining option, known as the Union Market, will open in the Oklahoma Memorial Union this spring, but some Sooners are missing their old options because of longer lines and lack of selection in the food court. The new eatery and grocery store will open in early January, said Amy Buchanan, Housing and Food spokeswoman, and will take the place of Wendy’s, which left the union in December. With Wendy’s gone, the only restaurant options in the union now are Chick-fil-A, Crossroads Restaurant, The Laughing Tomato, Wong Key, Quiznos Subs and Sbarro.

Criminology junior Marla Bailey said she’s noticed longer lines at all these restaurants with Wendy’s absence. As well, Bailey said while lines are longer, she thinks less people are eating at the Union because there aren’t as many options. While the new option will include a salad bar, soups, bread, fresh fruit and snacks, some Sooners are missing the options offered by Wendy’s. “I will say people were disappointed when Wendy’s closed because it had a lot of choices,” said Cornelia Lambert, adjunct instructor in freshman

Howdy Week’s midweek festivities introduced freshmen and other students to the many clubs and organizations available on campus Wednesday on the South Oval. The fall Involvement Fair booths showcased many of the over 400 active, registered student organizations to crowds of students looking for their first experience in a campus organization, as well as upperclassmen wanting to take part in another club. World Literature Today, Pre-dental Club, Arashi Taiko drum club, Integrity Council, Christians on Campus and the Sooner Curling Club were just a few of the organizations that offered pamphlets, presentations and conversation about what involvement opportunities their club has to offer students. Although it is only his third day on the OU campus, University College freshman Jeremy Williams already had his interest piqued by a few clubs present at the fair. As an aspiring engineer, Williams said he plans to get involved in one of the engineering teams, particularly the newly-created rocket team. SEE FAIR PAGE 2

Right: Chemical engineering junior Vicki Ea drums out a rhythm on Involvement Day Wednesday, at the Arashi Taiko club’s booth on the South Oval. Ea said arashi taiko translates to “storm drum” in English.

Continued from page 1 Williams said he would also like to become a member of the anime club for a non-professional outlet. However, considering his 18-hour class schedule and many commitments that go along with being a Navy ROTC member, Williams said his main priorities will be his classwork and his progress toward becoming a Navy officer after graduating. On the other hand, chemical bios ciences junior Heston Hawkins said he has made an effort to stay involved in Rotaract Club and Pre-med Club, despite his busy class schedule, because he believes the chance to volunteer and help the campus and wider community is well worth the commitments. Since the OU community operates much like any other community, it creates a more enjoyable and productive atmosphere when people contribute by participating in organizations, putting time and effort into their activities and eventually even leading them, Hawkins said. “There are a lot of clubs that can just be for fun,” Hawkins said. “It’s not necessarily important that people be in a club that aligns with their [professional plans], although that can be beneficial.” The Redliners, OU’s oldest student-led a capella singing group, offers singers a chance to perform with the group on stage several times each semester and have a hand in arranging the group’s performance songs, said Lauren Schechter, the group’s vice president and economics junior. An advantage of being a Redliner, like with many clubs, is having fun doing group activities and making friends with people who have similar interests, Schechter said. The Redliners is not sponsored by the School of Music or another organization, so they have more freedom to do and perform what they want, Schechter said. “Something we’ve really been focusing on over the

past few semesters is trying to convey the message of each song. We get into a lot of discussions,” she said. One of several cultural organizations with a large presence on campus is the Hispanic American Student Association, or HASA , which welcomes both Hispanic and non-Hispanic students.

and there is no pressure that members hail from a particular country like, for example, Columbia, Castillon said. Joining HASA has had a major influence in Castillon’s experiences since he became an OU student and HASA member three years ago, at a time when the collegiate world and all it had to offer intimi“There are a lot of dated him, he said.

Sometimes Chick-fil-A was long, but it’s always like that,” he said. Overall, Morton was happy to hear about Wendy’s leaving in exchange for the Union Market that will boast healthier options for students, he said.

“I’m glad [Wendy’s left] because I’d eat there, but it’s just so bad for you,” he said. “I’ll miss the Frostys though.” In the spring, a sandwich cart was put in front of Wendy’s old location to give students more variety in their food choices. So far this semester, the cart hasn’t made an appearance. When The Daily contacted B u c h a n a n f o r a re s p o n s e f ro m Housing and Food about Sooners’ concern with the long lines, she said she did not have a comment.

GLBT people should be able to give blood

onating blood is considered to be The gay blood challenge an act of heroism, charity and selflessness. With OU hosting a blood drive this week in connection with the Oklahoma Blood Institute, it’s important to be aware of a disconcerting issue associated with donating blood. According to the Red Cross, someone in the U.S needs blood every two seconds. A car accident victim alone can easily require up to 100 pints of blood. With the obvious and persistent need for blood donations, you would think that places like the Red Cross and the Oklahoma Blood Institute would gladly accept any healthy donations from any willing donor. This, unfortunately, seems to be untrue. In 1977, the FDA enacted a law that prevented sexually active gay men from donating blood.

With luck, the importance of truth will be more important than making a quick buck.

That applies to organizations all over campus, as well as local and national businesses. Hopefully this will continue in the future and there will not be a decline in the quality of work produced.

A letter of wise advice for today’s college students

Tony Beaulieu anthonybeaulieu78@gmail.com

Dear Ungrateful Rats, Take it from a veteran; college life wasn’t always as easy as it is now. Sure, you’ve got double the loan rates (thanks, Obamacare) and a crippling national deficit to inherit, but you’ve never faced true hardship. When your mule breaks down 20 miles downhill from the nearest mule station, or when your windmill gets pregnant and moves to Florida, then you can come crying to me. I would have gone crying too, if tears had been around back then. They weren’t. Back then, tuition cost 5 cents a semester. That may seem nice, but we had to work all summer lifting oil drums just to pay for it. Not moving them anywhere in particular, just lifting them and setting them back down again. The wealthy southern democrats in town would pay us to do this for their amusement. We didn’t have Instagrams or Facebooks. In my day, books were made from paper, not faces. The “Student Union” at

University College freshman Austin Huth moves into Walker Center on Aug. 16. Freshmen, take as much advice as you can get.

the time was a makeshift boxing ring in a shaved corn field. You had to fight for your lunch. If you lost, you didn’t eat. If you won, you still didn’t eat. But you got the glory of knowing you could, if food had been invented. The only “greek life” we had were actual Greeks. They smelled a little funny and probably could have benefitted from a trip to the local barber. But man, could they make a mean gyro. I don’t know how greek life is now, but if it’s not exactly the same as it was then, I have lost all faith in our

country’s higher education system. My major was milking cows with a minor in churning butter. We didn’t have your fancy Nintendo’s or Rob Schneider movies. We had oatmeal, and that was entertainment enough for us. I used to just stare at the old bowl of oatmeal for hours laughing my head off. Back then we used oatmeal for pretty much everything. It was great for patching up holes in foundations. Even today, the Old Science Hall is built on a rock-solid foundation of oatmeal and grits. It was also fuel for our

bikes, filling for our trashcans and a great salad dressing. Even to this day, I still enjoy a nice oatmeal shampooing in the mornings. There was one Polish kid on campus that we’d chase around for fun. It was a game called “Pin the Tail on the Pole.” We enjoyed it because it was something to do — there were no girls around back then, women having not been invented until six or seven years later. The Polish kid enjoyed it because — being our only exchange student — he got full tuition. If you caught him, you might get a pair of shoes from the president of the university. The president moonlighted as a cobbler — it was about the highest paying job you could get in those days — and he was liable to hand out a pair for good grades instead of a degree. I graduated and I still have my shoes from the president. Tried to frame ‘em on a wall like a degree, but if you want to know the god’s honest truth: shoes are a poor substitute for a degree. If there’s anything you freshman take away from this letter, I want it to be that. Sincerely, Nealie U. Tobuy, Class of 2014

amber elkins

How long have been in Union Programming Board ? I joined my sophomore year and came on as a Public Relations Chair. What made you want to join? An alumnus named Matt Farley recruited me. He was president when I was a sophomore and asked me to be PR Chair. So you were never a part of the general membership? No, I was in Student Council when I was in high school and was already a public relations major so we just skipped that part. What is the most exciting thing that has happened in your experience as being a part of UPB? The growth of the organization is the most exciting thing to me. When I was a freshman I didn’t even know what it was, and I feel like it has really grown and people actually know what it is.

hen watching college football, or any sport for that matter, it is hard not to notice trends. As college quarterbacks continue to become more athletic, it is hard not to notice the trend of tup-tempo offenses that use their ability to run and throw welll. The success of some of these has been well documented. Sophomore Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel and former Auburn quarterback Cam Newton — both recent Heisman winners — come

to mind. With the era of the mobile quarterback underway in Norman, the Sooners seem to embraced the trend. OU hasn’t had a duel-threat quarterback since 2005, when Rhett Bomar used his scrambling ability and strong arm to lead the Sooners to a Holiday Bowl victory over Oregon. Over the next seven seasons, a pass-oriented offense would establish itself amid Bomar’s dismissal from the team in 2006, allowing traditional quarterbacks ,Sam Bradford and Landry Jones, to break numerous OU passing records. They simply stood in the pocket, checked their receiver options and slung the ball around the field. The one problem with this was the offensive game plan was fairly predictable, which seemed to cost the Sooners in big games against good defenses. Coach Stoops and his staff know that both

quarterback candidates, junior Blake Bell and redshirt freshman Trevor Knight, are game-changers in this regard — a dangerous alternative to the pocket-passer who can shred defenses through the air and on the ground. While Knight has proven himself capable, I feel that Bell’s experience will ultimately win him the job. Last year, Bell showed he clearly had no problem with using his 6-foot-6-inches, 250 pound frame and gazelle-like strides to run over and around linebackers. Even though he was used sparingly, he still managed to rush for more than 200 yards and 11 touchdowns.

WELCOME BACK!

With this being said, fans shouldn’t be surprised if they see a spread-option package incorporated into the offense. A style used by some of the highest scoring teams in the nation, this method would utilize the speedy running back Damien Williams as well as Bell by lining up three to four receivers wide with Bell and Williams right next to each other in the shotgun formation. This spreads out the defense, allowing the quarterback to use fake handoffs and “read” the intensity of the pass rush to create clearer passing lanes and bigger running lanes for him and the running

backs to do damage in the open field. Throw in the Sooner’s no-huddle setup between plays, and now you have a tired defense with little time to prepare for what the versatile quarterback will do. Back in 2008, Florida used the spread-option, and Heisman winner quarterback Tim Tebow’s bruising running style, to win a national championship. Though Bell seems to be the heir apparent to the throne, it doesn’t mean there aren’t concerns about the big man from Wichita. There are still questions about Bell’s ability to throw with as much accuracy as previous OU quarterbacks. After all, he has only attempted 20 passes in his college career. However, Sooner fans can bet that co-offensive coordinators Josh Heupel and Jay Norvell will get him ready for the season by tweaking his throwing

motion. The spring game was a good sign. Bell threw for 213 yards and two touchdowns, outperforming other quarterback candidates, Knight junior Kendal Thompson. Sooner nation should look forward to any changes in offensive philosophy that might come with this season. Coach Stoops is a guru when it comes to selecting starting quarterbacks and incorporating them into the offense. Now should be no different. OU has arguably never had a more athletic or versatile quarterback than the “Belldozer” and making changes to the playbook to accommodate his rare skillset only makes sense. If recent trends in college football are any indication, then it’s good Bell is a strong guy. The Heisman Trophy looks heavy.
