Column: It’s time for real sexual assault training Paige Worley @Paigerinnn As social media editor at the O’Colly, I’ve heard students talking about how stupid the mandatory sexual assault training was. Everyone at the O’Colly has. We get it. No matter what the intentions were for the university, someone needed to start the conversation. All that conversation seemed to have started was a lot of students bitching about adding something to their to-do list. Sexual assault and sexual violence is a problem on this campus. We have seen it in recent years with the Farmhouse fraternity scandal, but it also is a quiet backdrop to some students’ everyday life. And it’s not just this campus, it’s happening — and being ignored, apparently — on other campuses nationwide. Emma Sulkowicz was

sexually assaulted in her own bed in her dorm room on the first day of her sophomore year at Columbia University, according to an article by Today. Columbia dismissed the claim, for whatever reason, and her alleged rapist is still a student at the university. Sulkowicz protested this year, as a senior, by carrying around her twin-sized dorm mattress on campus, making national news. “The most painful thing for me has been dealing with people who doubt me,” she told Today. Does it really need to come to a girl carrying the mattress she was assaulted on for the campus to understand there is a problem? Are we, as students at OSU, going to wait for someone to get assaulted in front of our own eyes to do something? Twenty percent of women will be sexually assaulted in their college career, said Audrey Wood, sexual violence prevention educator. Of every five

women you sit with, one will be sexually assaulted before they graduate. Is the sexual assault training still “stupid” to you? Six percent of college men will experience sexual violence during their college careers, Wood said. Perhaps more profound, four out of five victims know their attacker. Still sure this won’t happen to you? What about a friend? We need to eradicate the “It won’t happen to me” idea and start saying “How can I prevent it?” More importantly, how can you help a friend that has become a victim? That’s where the O’Colly comes in. Monday night, I’ll sit down with Audrey Wood in the newsroom and give you an hour to ask her questions over Twitter. She will be able to talk about how to report a crime, where to go for counseling, suggestions on how to prevent sexual assault, and a variety of other topics related to sexual violence.

We want to give you a platform to cut the crap and get the information you feel you need to know.

You can also submit questions anonymously to

OSU’s Professional Pilot School cruises above campus

Blake Smith, a sophomore in the Professional Pilot School, tests the controls of one of the planes.

Stetson Payne @OColly When you walk into the OSU Flight Center just off of Runway 35/17, you see maps, schedule boards and posters promoting safety and pilots of old. You’ll also see a lot of Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses. Definitely a lot of aviator sunglasses. Sitting next to the window looking out over the tarmac, nearly a dozen Cessna 172s and a pair of Piper Seminoles is Jessica Dobie, an Oklahoma State alumna and flight instructor for current students. Dobie graduated in 2012 from the Professional Pilot School and returned to the flight center to train the

next generation. She is one of only two female instructors for OSU. In a field previously dominated by men and countless Hollywood pilot stereotypes, Dobie stands out. At only 24, she has a private pilot’s license, instrument flying rating and a commercial pilot’s license, as well as being a Certified Flight Instructor, or CFI. This comes after four years as a student and another year as an instructor. “You can’t complain about your day job when you get to fly two to three times a day,” Dobie said. The professional pilot school trains for a variety of fields within aviation. Some students are also in Air Force ROTC, but in smaller numbers. Graduates of the program often move up to a regional airline or in some

cases an internship with an aviation authority. Dobie interned at the Federal Aviation Administration office in Oklahoma City. “I always knew I didn’t want a desk job,” Dobie said. “I’ve always wanted to fly since I was 10.” Stillwater Regional Airport is just northwest of campus off Western Road. Often planes on approach or departure will fly directly over campus as part of their flight path, giving them an extremely unique view. In addition to the view, Stillwater Regional is a special experience in many ways. For instance, because of the strong blustery winds in the central plains, the main runway allows for good practice of cross-wind landings. Not only can the weather be an added challenge, but also because of

the sheer amount of trainer aircraft aloft at any time, pilots in the area gain quite a bit of traffic and radio experience. Beyond a basic pilot’s license, the curriculum is structured for retention of key concepts. Each rating is divided into three stages of basic, intermediate and advanced technique. Through the course of four years, these help individual pilots accumulate hours, which is ultimately the benchmark by which pilots are judged for experience and learning. For each rating there is a check-ride — consider it a final exam — at 5,000 feet. The examination is a pre-planned flight with an FAA-certified instructor who grades the pilot on performance, execution and proficiency. Certifications

vary from a personal private license, instrument flying, multi-engine aircraft and commercial aircraft. Instructors teach all of these at the OSU Flight center. Some of them can be cross-country flights from Stillwater to surrounding cities such as Tulsa, Wichita and Oklahoma City. Dobie said a lot has changed in the six years since she first came to the flight center. She attributes a large portion of the change to flight manager Lance Fortney, chief pilot instructor Mark Uhlman and assistant pilot instructor Jared Dunlap. The school has upgraded to glass cockpit Cessna 172s — opposed to older analog/gauged models, along with a new emphasis on student flying hours. “The three of them have

done so much for this program,” Dobie said. The pilots at the Flight Center share something more than sunglasses and headsets. Every one of them has a passion to fly and learn. In a field where positions are extremely competitive at national airlines, drive is all-important. “We all just have this deep love for flying,” Dobie said. She also gave encouragement to anyone who wants to possibly take up flying, and it’s surprisingly simple for something that requires so much. “Just talk to a pilot who’s been through flight training — military or civilian,” Dobie said. “Pilots like to tell stories and share the knowledge.” news@ocolly.com PAGE 3


Multicultural Greek Council built on perseverance Zach Baden @ZachBaden Symphony Oxendine wanted only to find a spiritual home on campus. What happened next gave previously alienated organizations a common ground and a legacy it continues to build. Oxendine, an Oklahoma State alumna, has Native American ancestry like many OSU students. To further connect with her heritage, she joined the Native American Student Association in the fall of 2001 but wanted more. Her desire prompted the founding of the Gamma (third) chapter of Alpha Pi Omega at OSU, the world’s first Native American sorority. “I thought that we, as native women, needed a little more support than those (existing) organizations were giving us at the moment,” Oxendine said. “They were good, but we needed more. “So we tried to find a

way to cross tribal boundaries and support each other.” So she researched and found out about Alpha Pi Omega’s founding at the University of North Carolina. She contacted the leaders about starting a chapter at OSU with 14 other women who shared her beliefs. This created a problem for Ival Gregory, OSU’s director of fraternity and sorority affairs. “When I was approached by Symphony Daniels (now Oxendine) about starting a Native American Sorority, there was no provision for that to happen,” Gregory said. “The only avenue for Alpha Pi Omega to be recognized at that time was to go through SGA and the committee on student organizations. Symphony wasn’t interested in that path because her dream was that A-Pi-O be recognized as a Greek organization.” Through the process of creating a constitution and the other hurdles of founding a sorority,

Notebook: Opinions vary on Thursday games Annice McEwan @annicemcewan

OSU’s conference opener against Texas Tech is the team’s only Thursday game of the year. Although there’s excitement about Big 12 play, there was a difference of opinion among coaches and players about the schedule. Wide receiver Austin Hays said he is looking forward to the Thursday game. “We should be the only game on TV, I think,” Hays said. “It should be a packed house here, and it’ll be fun. It’s a night game, the first game of conference, everybody’s excited.” OSU coach Mike Gundy, however, prefers to stick to a routine. “I don’t like any change,” Gundy said. “I’d rather play every Saturday and have one open week a year, but television and money dictate otherwise.” Gundy and the Cowboys will get back to Saturday games after this week with their next break in November. POKES PREPARING HARD DESPITE SERIES SUCCESS Texas Tech has historically struggled against OSU. The Red Raiders haven’t won a game in Stillwater since 2001, and the Cowboys have dominated the teams’ past five meetings.

After a lackluster performance against Arkansas, Texas Tech isn’t off to the same start it was a season ago. Despite it being a conference opener, there are some questions of whether this game could be a repeat of the Cowboys’ unenthusiastic play against Missouri State. Defensive coordinator Glenn Spencer said game’s attitude begins in practice with the coaches. “We as coaches try to remind them of (their weaknesses), try to show them tape of the next opponent and try to tell them all the things that can go bad if we don’t do their job,” Spencer said. “(We) try to put a good plan up there on the board and hope they execute it in practice.” CASTLEMAN IS WHERE HE BELONGS Senior defensive tackle James Castleman has a special relationship with Texas Tech. Formerly a Red Raider commit, Castleman eventually decided to sign with OSU. The Amarillo native reflected back the experience and said the Cowboys recruiting staff played a major role in his decision. “Coach Spencer was a big reason why I changed my mind,” Castleman said. “He was always there for me. When I called to tell him I committed to Tech, I actually felt really bad about it.” Unsure of his choice,

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2014

Castleman said he made another call to Spencer before switching schools. “I came out and visited and I just fell in love with (OSU),” Castleman said. “Whenever I told Tech, I didn’t feel that sadness that I felt when I told Coach Spencer that I had committed.” Castleman said his history with this week’s opponent won’t change how he looks at the game. “It doesn’t really feel different for me,” Castleman said. “This is my family now.” INEXPERIENCE A CRIPPLING EFFECT The Cowboys’ offense has drawn its fair share of criticism this season. Gundy has readily admitted his part in what some have called predictable and uncreative play calling, but put most of the blame on an inexperienced team. “We don’t really have the luxury to open up the playbook,” Gundy said. “We have a quarterback that’s only played two games in his career and we have three young offensive lineman. Teams that we compete against know that and they realize it.” Teams are also aware of Tyreek Hill, who has all but disappeared from the stat books since his standout performance against Florida State. The junior running back has yet to score a touchdown. Gundy says the opposing team may limit Hill’s

influence on special teams but he and offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich plan to continue to get Hill the ball. “We need him to touch the ball,” Gundy said. “Some games will be more than others but we’d certainly like it to be at least 20 times a game.”

HOW ARE THINGS NOW? “Remember those earlier days after you had received the light.” (Heb.10:32 NIV) Sometimes is good to stop and remember when you first came to Christ. Remember how real that new relationship was? Your heart was wide open and hungry to learn and walk with God. Intensity and were there. How are things now? excitement we You may have taken some “flack” because of your reality with God. Some may have said, “you got religion,” but actually you met Jesus in real way that changed your outlook and way of life. How are things now? Money and “things” moved out of the forefront. Something greater and more lasting had taken their place. You realized your true possessions in Christ that could not be taken away. How are things now? These Jewish Christians were under pressure for their testimony of Christ. They had and were suffering some real persecution for their faith. They had lost possessions because of their faith in Jesus. Life was not looking very good, and they began to question their faith and what they had received from God. The whole book of Hebrews is challenging them and encouraging them about the greatness of Christ and the better thing they had received. Tests and trials of life come our way; no one is exempt from difficulties that try our faith. No wonder the apostle encourages us to “fight the good fight of faith.” Keep trusting the one you first embraced; Jesus Christ, because he is also the finisher of your faith. That “precious” faith will receive praise and honor with Jesus returns.(1 Pet.1:6-7) The exhortation to us all is “…do not throw th away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.” (Heb.10:35-36 NIV) If we shrink back, God will not be pleased with us. It is good to look back and ask God to help us return to that “first love.” God will forgive and strengthen us to continue in faith, and finish the purpose he has for our lives. We will be so glad at the end that we did not give up or compromise our Christian life. In fact, we will be glad through all eternity. New Covenant Fellowship 1110 E.

Dream achieved: Student works Fashion Week By LEILAH NAIFEH Contributing Reporter

It’s 10 p.m., and Kailey Gullett has just thrown her favorite parachute pants into her luggage when she has an epiphany: “Leotards.” She shoves leotards and parachute pants and high top sneakers into her travel bag to join her on a 6 a.m. flight to New York City. Gullett is going to New York’s Fashion Week to volunteer for some of the world’s most successful designers. Gullett is a junior double majoring in design, housing and merchandising with an option in apparel merchandising and marketing. She was the only student from OSU given the opportunity to volunteer at MercedesBenz Fashion Week Fall 2014 from Sept. 4-11. But she didn’t seem to be fazed. “I haven’t really talked a lot about it to anyone,” Gullett said. “But I couldn’t ask for a more exciting adventure.” The hours ticked by until she was scheduled to leave. For students aspiring to make it big in the fashion industry, working at Fashion Week is a coveted opportunity. The Fashion Institute of Technology in New York alone receives about 2,000 student applications to volunteer with only 1,600 accepted, according to The New York Observer. Gullet was still calm as ever. But could you expect

any less from a girl with her resume? Merchandising and Apparel Design Association President. Euphoria Fashion Show Co-Producer. And she spent the summer of 2013 studying at Central St. Martins in London (alumni include Zac Posen, Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen) and Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti, or New Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. If that isn’t enough, she just finished a summer internship with Yoana Barashi, a contemporary women’s label, as the fashion PR intern in New York. She’s a seasoned professional. But Gullet said it isn’t all about the resume. “I have dreamed about going to fashion week since I was 7, so this is more like crossing an adventure off my bucket list than a resume builder,” she said. Fast-forward a week later, the runways are collapsed and Gullett and her leotards are back in Oklahoma. “The atmosphere was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced,” Gullet said. “Coco Chanel was quoted saying, ‘Fashion is in the streets, it’s in the air.’ That quote perfectly explains Fashion Week. “It was all photographers, bloggers and important people. In the streets, everywhere, all over the place. It was unreal. People from all over the world were there, celebrating the future of

fashion.” Diane Limbaugh, a clinical instructor in the apparel design and production department at the College of Human Sciences, said Gullett has a lot to celebrate for herself. “Kailey is a very dedi-

cated student,” Limbaugh said. “When she is determined to do something she finds a way to do it.” Gullett credits the hard working female figures in the fashion industry who inspire her to never give up on her dreams.

“I dream big,” Gullett said. “If I had to give any advice, it would be what I learned from designers and stylists that were unapologetically themselves. And that is to don’t give up on big dreams just because they scare you.”

Gullett’s plans after college are to get her masters at Central St. Martins in Fashion Communication and Promotion and to be a production stylist for film and television. news@ocolly.com PAGE 7


Greek: students found a way for multicultural greek organizations to be included at osu.

From Page 4 what we want to do, and there was nothing that gave any inclination that they wouldn’t support us, so we just went ahead,” Oxendine said. “They were awesome. I think we were the first organization that went to them and said, “This is our plan and this is what we wanted to do.” Those outside its community may lump all social Greek-lettered organizations together, but there are distinct groups and major differences between them. The most well-known are traditional national fraternities, most of which were founded in the 19th or early 20th century. These are members of the National InterFraternity Council, which governs its members and helps to charter them at universities nationwide. Likewise, there is the National PanHellenic Conference for national sororities and the National Pan-Hellenic Council for historically black fraternities and sororities. College enrollment numbers continued to grow, and new student groups with their own ethnic backgrounds began wanting social societies that reflected their values and celebrated their heritage — whether that

be culturally, racially or religiously. Because Alpha Pi Omega and similar organizations are usually regionally or locally confined, they can’t belong to any of the “big three” Greek Councils at a national level. Instead, they are limited to associate membership at individual universities. In response to this fraternity and sorority boom, these organizations came together to create the National Multicultural Greek Council in 1998. Back in Stillwater, Oxendine, Gregory and members of Omega Delta Phi — a primarily Latino Fraternity — took their proposal for a local multicultural council to the board of regents. “I talked with Ival (Gregory), and he couldn’t think of any reason why we couldn’t have a council for organizations that didn’t fit anywhere else,” Oxendine said. “I created a constitution, and probably the biggest thing was meeting with legal counsel to go over requirements (for) how organizations that came to OSU could become a part of the council.” OSU ratified and officially accepted the new council’s constitution in August 2003, but almost immediately after, it was in danger of fading away as quickly as it had risen. One of the two founding members went off campus, and Gregory said it wasn’t easy after their departure. “It has been a bit of a struggle; there have been some ups and downs,” Gregory said. “Shortly after the creation of the

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2014

council, Omega Delta Phi went away due to low numbers, but Delta Epsilon Psi came on board. They’re a South Asian fraternity, and they have continued to be a stalwart.” Since its founding, the council has grown steadily with five member organizations and three more in progress of obtaining full membership. Now that they have a solid foundation, Gregory says they are beginning to thrive. “We’ve given those students who want a combination of the Greek experience and while retaining the important parts of their heritage the opportunity to do so,” Gregory said. Oxendine now lives in North Carolina and works as a visiting lecturer to university campus life administrations to advise and create discussion about existing programs or the possibility of new ones like the Multicultural Greek Council. She serves as the grand president for Alpha Pi Omega and was inducted into the OSU Greek Hall of Fame last spring. Through all of her visits to other campuses, Oxendine said that OSU is still special. “OSU has been one of the leaders in Multicultural Greek Councils,” she said. “Ival and all the other administrators were very clear that they were going to treat the MGC the same and as equitable as the other councils even though we didn’t have the same resources.” news@ocolly.com O’COLLY

Million-dollar grant helps American Indians Montinique Monroe @iAmMontinique

A $1.2 million grant for American Indians Into Psychology could bring students across the nation to Oklahoma State University. The program serves as an avenue for American Indian students from high school, undergraduate and graduate school to pursue a profession in psychology in underserved areas. Less than one percent of all psychologists in the U.S. are American Indian, resulting in about one Native psychologist for every 30,000 American Indian citizens, according to the AIIP website. Today, American Indian students make up 25 percent of OSU’s graduate enrollment in clinical psychology, thanks to the program. The Indian Health Service financed AIIP continuously since 1997 in four-year cycles. The current grant award of $1.2 million will end in about five years John Chaney, professor and director of AIIP, said a lot of American Indian students do not have the benefit of having academic role models. “It’s not unusual for undergraduates in general to get poor mentoring, but it’s even worse for minority students,” he said. Chaney, along with his colleagues, designed AIIP to give American Indian students the resources to achieve higher education in psychology. The majority of the grant

will go toward recruitment, travel, stipends and three full scholarships for American Indian students. Chaney said everyone deserves an opportunity to get an education, and it is the university’s job to make that available. He said the AIIP program creates the even playing field for students in the program to have the same opportunity at reaching their highest potential of earning a Ph.D. Sean Seabridge, a graduate student and member of the Osage Nation, said he received the AIIP scholarship for two years as an undergraduate student. He said he would not have been nearly as successful without AIIP, and said the program is needed in the American Indian community for several reasons. “Native communities are in great need of more healthcare professionals and particularly mental health professionals,” Seabridge said via email. “In addition, the AIIP program gives Native students a sense of community that many students are missing from their

college experience.” Seabridge said the AIIP program at OSU is set apart from other schools because it has the full support of the university, the psychology faculty and many tribal leaders. Victoria O’Keefe, a graduate student and member of the Cherokee and Seminole Nation of Oklahoma, participated in the AIIP summer program in 2009. Five years later, O’Keefe is finishing up her last year in the Ph.D. program and looking forward to her clinical internship. The AIIP program paved the way for Seabridge and O’Keefe to reach their goals in obtaining a graduate degree. The $1.2 million grant will allow the program and its students to continue flourishing. “It’s helped me realize this is absolutely what I want to do,” she said. “I was able to be involved in research through that program.”
