OU dean to explore new horizons
Kelly Damphousse reflects on time at OU before leaving KENDRA MANN
C o l l e g e o f A r t s a n d Sciences Dean Kelly Damphousse has accepted the chancellor position at Arkansas State. He had a lot to say about his life here at OU, his journey ahead and his dog, Maple, in his final interview with The Daily.
...
WHAT ACHIEVEMENT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF IN YOUR TIME AT OU? “I think establishing relationships that I’ve made with students over the years is the thing that I’m really proud of. In the past couple of weeks when it became public that I was leaving, I’ve gotten so many notes, letters and Facebook messages from students that I haven’t thought of for years, and they’ve told me about the impact I’ve had in their life, and that was really touching. All I’ve been doing all week is writing thank-you letters because there is nothing that a teacher wants more for their students than first to be successful, and second to get an acknowledgment back from them that you’ve impacted their lives. It can be very moving. It’s been a very emotional time for me — saying goodbye to my friends and colleagues here, but also the students. It’s a tough time for us.”
Boren came here in 1994, the university was in a really tough situation. I think he saw something in the university that it didn’t see itself; the faculty didn’t understand what it was or how great it could be, and the students didn’t necessarily think they were at a great university. He helped change that culture. Early on he started talking about ‘OU excellence’ and how great it was and how great our faculty and students are, so he really changed people’s perceptions of OU. Talk about the number of beautiful buildings that have been built on campus, much more beautiful now than it was before, but it’s really about the attitude that he changed. He made people believe in OU, not just people outside of OU, but the people at OU. We all bought into that.” WHAT HAS OU MEANT TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY?

to pull all-nighters up here all the time, so I would be the only one in the building, and this was before I lived in Headington. I would stay up here all night and sometimes I wouldn’t leave until 4 or 5 in the morning. The hallway lights are on motion sensors. The lights would be off in the evening unless I went out to get a cup of coffee or something. One night I was working in my office down the hall here, and all of a sudden, the lights just went on in the hallway. I don’t know what it was. It could have been a mouse. It could have been anything, but I just packed up my stuff and went home.”
“It’s been home for us. It’s our home, and that’s why it’s so hard for us to leave. It’s exciting and fun to go, but it’s really hard to leave. We live on campus, we’re Faculty-inResidences at Headington. Just this weekend was our 5th move in, so new student athletes are moving in right now, just started summer school. It’s tough to leave that behind. WHAT WAS THE MOST We, for the past four years, MEMORABLE MOMENT? have lived every hour on campus. We never leave.

something to Twitter, then I was scrolling through, saw that something happened, and the video was uploaded. We left the game and came back that night, and we got on campus and some students invited us to a prayer meeting, so we went to an Evans Hall prayer meeting standing around the statue. I came back early the next morning, we were there at probably 5:30 a.m. or so, and students started coming in from everywhere. It wasn’t just African American students — it was all students who came, and faculty members. Students came in from everywhere, all students, and a lot of faculty. The students were gathering and about to start speaking on the steps of Evans Hall, and President Boren came out of Evans Hall.
He came out with a bullhorn, and you could feel everyone because it was a high-tension moment. He was able to calm everyone down, and say what he really believed in a way that brought that community together. This could have been something that made the university separate and disintegrate, and he brought everyone together. I wish that other presidents had seen how he handled that. I was glad that I was there to watch what he did. He is such a gifted speaker and that was a special moment for OU because things could have been really bad, and he rescued OU that day. I’ll never forget that morning as long as I live.” HOW DO STUDENTS RESPOND TO YOUR DOG, MAPLE? “They love Maple. It used to be that when Beth and I would walk down the hallway at Headington, students would say, ‘Hey, Dr. D. Hey, Momma D,’ and now they completely ignore us now and say, ‘Hey Maple.’ We are in competition for students’ attention. Now
we’re moving so I can gain attention back and keep Maple at the house. She’ll be locked away, and no one gets to see her. Last fall we were talking to students in our apartment and Beth asked if they were home sick. One of the students said, ‘Well, I don’t miss my mom, but I miss my dog.’ Beth said, ‘Never tell your mom you said that.’ Later on that night, Beth said that we should have a dog for the kids. We had a naming contest for her before we got her. The kids got to vote by putting cans in the bin for a donation to the food bank. Her name was going to be Headington Holly or Maple, which is my favorite condiment. Maple won. She has her own Twitter account and is really mean to me on Twitter. She calls me ‘the old man.’ She’s quite mean to me. She has more followers than Beth, I think.” WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT OU? “I would say family. Sometimes people say that sounds quaint or fake, but President Boren preaches the OU family, and I’ve felt like I’m closer with people at OU than I’d be with members of my family because they all live in Canada, and I don’t see them very often. People who are members of a family watch out for each other, they care for each other when there are tough times going on; they’re the ones who you go to. That’s how I’ve wanted to be myself, but that’s also how the people I’ve leaned on are during tough times. President Boren started this whole idea of the OU family, and I believe in it whole-heartedly.” Kendra Mann

OU faces cuts after budget deal New state budget reduces higher education funding
KATRINA CRUMBACHER @KatCrumbacher
With the State Board of Regents facing a $34 million cut, OU’s fiscal year 2018 operating budget may spell bad news for students. Dropping from approximately $21 million in state funding for fiscal year 2017 to roughly $12 million for fiscal year 2018, OU will lose around $9 million. OU Press Secretary Matt Epting said the university is looking into ways to keep costs low for students. “The additional cuts to higher education by state government will have a negative impact on the university budget,” Epting said. “We are continuing to work on identifying cost savings so that we can keep any potential increases
in tuition and fees to the lowest possible level.” Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin signed the fiscal year 2018 budget bill, worth $6.8 billion, on May 31. This came after a tense vote in the Oklahoma House of 57 for, 42 against, on May 26. Angela Caddell, associate vice chancellor of communications for the Oklahoma Regents for Higher Education, said that the state system of higher education is cutting costs significantly by sharing faculty and administrators between institutions, as well as joint academic degree programs between institutions. Cuts also include reduced travel and scholarships, early retirement options and consolidation of campus sites, according to Caddell. “While it has been said that higher education could offset budget cuts by increasing tuition, in reality, just over half of the FY17 budget reduction

was offset by tuition, fees and other revenue. The negative impacts of these cuts are devastating,” Caddell said. “In this environment, a college degree could become financially out of reach for some Oklahomans at a time when it has never
been more valuable.” Oklahoma has seen tuition and fees increase on almost a yearly basis as state funding has decreased. “We recognize this was an extremely difficult budget year. Despite successive years

of budget reductions, the State Regents and our 25 public colleges and universities remain committed to providing Oklahoma students a quality higher education opportunity at an affordable cost,” Chancellor Glen D. Johnson
of the State Board of Regents said. “Higher education requires adequate resources to produce the additional degrees necessary to meet Oklahoma’s business and industry workforce needs. Data clearly show that states with a high percentage of college degree-holders have higher per capita incomes and stronger, more diversified economies. We will continue to make the case that there is no better investment to ensure a brighter future for Oklahoma than the investment our policy leaders can make in higher education.” OU’s operating budget will be complete and made public at the OU’s Board of Regents meeting June 20. The State Board of Regents will meet June 28 and 29 to approve operating budgets. Katrina Crumbacher

New app aims to help stop internet bullying ‘Nice or Not’ creator hopes to decrease harassment online LAUREN OWEN
@LostAeonQueen
An OU freshman recently introduced an online application that can be integrated into other programs to determine if a person is posting abusive statements online. Justin Potts created “Nice or Not,” which runs on the “Kite AI” API system, allowing people to type in a sentence from a tweet or text message and see whether it is “nice or not.”
“The internet was created to give people a voice, and harassment takes that voice away,” Potts said in a blog post. As more and more sentences are plugged in, the website analyzes what topics the bullying is aimed at. Potts hopes the system can be implemented into other applications, such as Twitter, and help stop bullying. The idea for Nice or Not came after Kite AI rolled out its version, but in hopes of being more user-friendly. “Both are used to help developers detect abuse in their own apps,” Potts said in an email.
Some apps take years to get running, but Kite AI took approximately 36 hours to design. Nice or Not only took about a day to implement, according to Potts. “Adding Kite AI to the site was as simple as adding a few lines of code,” Potts said. “This was intentional, so that it’d be easier for developers and companies to easily add this to their own app with very little effort.” The app is for anyone who communicates electronically to make sure everyone of all ages can enjoy being online without the fear of harassment.
Through his own online presence, Potts has seen experiences of abuse taking place and wants to find the specific reasons for the abuse. “A big part about this for me and my team is building something that solves real problems, and something that can change the world,” Potts said. Online, people can talk about problems with people around the world, therefore broadening one’s view of a certain problem. He said the power to post whatever one wants allows abuse to spread in a way no one has truly dealt with until
now. A user could use the internet as a sort of mask to say what they want with smaller risk than they would face-toface. He said people may be less likely to voice an opposing opinion online because of the potential backlash due to this. “Because of the power of these apps to influence and reach decision makers, and allow people to engage in discussion with each other, it’s really important these methods of communication stay open and safe for everyone to share their ideas and thoughts,” Potts said. Nice or Not and Kite AI are still works in progress, but
new features are constantly being added. Potts is keeping the new additions a secret for now. “Being able to build something that could reach millions of people across the internet and drastically improve their online experience inspires us every day to continue working on Kite AI, and we’re always looking for new companies and apps to partner with that can help further our mission,” Potts said.

After early season struggles, OU takes crown

he crowd was on its feet. Fans had their phones out filming. Paige Lowary was in the circle with two outs with Florida’s Kayli Kvistad at the plate. Lowary throws a 70 mph pitch, ball makes contact, ground out. It’s over. No. 10 seeded Oklahoma defeated No. 1 seeded Florida in a 2-0 championship series sweep. The Sooners are the lowest seeded team to ever win the World Series. They took game one in the longest WCWS final game in history. They won their third national title in five years — their second consecutive national title. “I still cannot believe that this happened with where we started and where we finished,” Coach Patty Gasso said. “There’s so many stories. The journey was unbelievable. I think if you looked at us in February, March, even parts of April, you would have never imagined us sitting here with trophies in front of us.” The Sooners started out the season losing games to teams like Auburn, Washington, Cal Poly and Arizona. They weren’t where they wanted to be, and it showed. O k l a h o ma t u r n e d i t s
season around after spring break, going 24-1. Then came the Norman Regional. They dropped game one against the North Dakota State Bison and had to win four consecutive games to advance to the super regionals at Auburn.
“We just play hard and we try to win for the university, and we’re Championship U right now.” PATTY GASSO, SOFTBALL COACH
It scared them. They didn’t want their season to end because of old habits and getting comfortable. Oklahoma turned it around again. Gasso and company went on an 11game win streak to end its season with another national championship. “We’re a humble group, so we’re not going to be bragging about it,” Gasso said. “We just play hard and we try to win for the university, and we’re Championship U right now. If you aren’t winning championships, you better get moving. To bring another one to the University of Oklahoma
is our job, and we’re proud to do it.” In the sport, the Sooners are becoming a dynasty. They won’t buy into the hype, but the work ethic and the desire to use their sport to touch others is making them one. “I don’t think of it that way — all we’re trying to do is win,” Gasso said. “Whoever wants to call it that, it’s fine, but we don’t. We won’t. We’ll just try and continue to win games and championships.” Gasso said winning and bringing home the trophies aren’t ultimately where her goals lie. “All I try to do is be the best coach I can for these players. When they commit to OU, I commit back to them. Our goal is to make them as great as they can,” Gasso said. “Through all this what we’re doing is not focusing so much on trying to win games, as much as trying to lift others up. When you’re doing things like that, you’re just not nervous. You just feel like you have a duty to do it. We take on a lot of this platform to change lives.” Jadyn Watson-Fisher jwatsonfisher@ou.edu
OU HAS TAKEN HOME FIVE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS THIS YEAR. SOFTBALL, MEN’S AND WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS, MEN’S TENNIS DOUBLES AND GOLF HAVE ALL EARNED NATIONAL TITLES. Freshman utility player Nicole Mendes runs home to score in the Women’s College World Series Championship game against Florida June 6.

OU golf wins Baseball season ends national title after Louisville regional Team brings OU fourth national victory this year
Sooners exit NCAA tournament after roller coaster year
GEORGE STOIA @GeorgeStoia
GEORGE STOIA @GeorgeStoia
After an up-and-down year, the Sooners’ season came to an end in the third round of the Louisville regional Sunday. Oklahoma started it’s season on a tear, going 17-3 in their first 20 games. The team was led by five seniors who wanted to leave the program better than when they found it. “(The program) has grown a lot, since last year especially,” senior Renae Martinez said. “I think it’s only going to grow from here on out. We have a great group of guys and a great group of young guys who want to compete.” The team went through a slump in April, losing 12 of 18 games, but responded with series wins over TCU and Kansas State. The Sooners dropped their final two regular season games and lost back-to-back games in the Big 12 tournament for an early exit. Despite a roller coaster of a regular season, sophomore Steele Walker believes it will help them in the future. “I think it’s going to flow easier for us next year because we have guys like (Martinez) who paved the way,” Walker said. The Sooners were then selected to play in the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2013, hoping to prove their critics wrong. Oklahoma

opened with a win over Xavier, showing glimpses of the team that started 17-3. But things took a turn for the worst in their next game. In a matchup with No. 1 seeded Louisville, the Sooners kept up with the Cardinals until the eighth inning when they gave up seven runs. The next day, Oklahoma faced elimination in a rematch with Xavier, and picked up right where they left off, losing 11-0. Even though the season didn’t end as he had hoped, Coach Pete Hughes is optimistic about the future. “I love where we are at with the culture and the atmosphere and having returning guys with pivotal experience in winning,” Hughes said. “When you can do that and you have it in every class and you have balanced classes

In an improbable run, No. 13 seed Oklahoma won the national championship after defeating the defending national champion No. 5 seed Oregon 3-1-1. After beating Illinois in the semifinal on Tuesday, May 30, the Sooners looked to win their first national title since 1989. Sophomore Blaine Hale got OU on the board first, winning his match 4 and 3. The Sooners then went up 2-0 after senior Max McGreevy won his match 3 and 2. “I played good in stroke play, and I just kind of had a calmness about me this week,” Hale said. “Whenever I stepped up on the first tee, I just knew it was going to be a good day.” Junior Rylee Reinertson lost his match, but sophomore Brad Dalke finished off his match at hole 17, winning 2 and 1 to secure the national title. “You know, we’ve had this goal in our minds since Pebble Beach, the beginning of the year,” Dalke said. “We knew we had the team to do it. We have a lot of depth on our team, I feel like, and we’re all super talented. We’re gritty, and we fight until the very last stroke.” In his eighth year as head coach, Ryan Hybl has been “dreaming ” about this moment. “You know, this is what we dream about,” Hybl said.

“This is what we come to work for every day, and that’s why you’ve got to come out and practice every day. This isn’t about me — it’s about what these guys were able to do this week.” Prior to the national championship, the Sooners earned two regular season wins — one at the Gopher Invitational in Independence, Minnesota, and another at the Lone Star Invitational in San Antonio, Texas. Oklahoma also earned a program-best five individual titles. The title also comes after a quarterfinal loss at the NCAA Championship in 2016. With this win, Oklahoma has now won four national championships in 2017. Both men’s and women’s gymnastics won national titles, and men’s tennis won it’s first individual national championship in program history with senior Andrew Harris and junior Spencer Papa earning the doubles title.
