Downy flakes cause auto quakes With all the snow and ice that has deluged the Edmond area in the past few days, the effects on CSU have taken many shapes. Students may have noticed that some of their classmates are missing due to the poor road conditions. Jim Dunn, head of campus security, said his department has answered a few more accident calls and that parking seems to be the biggest problem. "We have people who park closer to the buildings because it's cold," Dunn said. "Then the professors gripe because the students are taking their parking spaces. "Also people have a problem parking in the lots
because the snow covers the stripes and also the handicapped zones." Dunn said most of the accidents his office has investigated have been minor and no injuries reported. "We did have one lady who came into a building and slipped because she had leather soles on her shoes and they were wet," Dunn said. "We took her to the hospital and had her checked out, but she wasn't hurt. I think her bottom was a little sore though." The Edmond area received three to four inches of snow Tuesday and another arctic cold front is expected to move into the state Friday. No additional snow is forecast.

Changes made to correct inconsistency By MaryGaye Franklin Associate Editor Changes have been made in the CSU grade policy concerning the marks of WP, WF, X and I, according to Dr. James Perry, vice
president of academic affairs. Perry submitted the recommendation for the changes to Dr. Bill Lillard on Nov. 28. Lillard approved the changes and they went into effect Jan. 9.
According to Perry at the time he submitted the proposal there was a grade policy being used that had been in effect for eight years. There was also a recommendation for changes in the grading system
Director remains optimistic By Traci Baucom Associate Editor Budget cuts, the hiring freeze and financial woes have beset CSU as well as other state institutions, leaving many folks down in the dumps as well as up in the air about the future. But Nimrod Chapel, maintenance coordinator, is optimistic.
"I'm as optimistic as a sharecropper," Chapel said. "I like to look on the positive side of things." The Maintenance department, like other CSU departments, has positions open but because of the hiring freeze, can't fill them. Because of budget cuts, they are looking at possible supply pro-

blems. This doesn't faze Chapel. "I would rather dwell on on what we can do," Chapel said. "We'll make the required adjustments according to our budget. We will operate as effectively and efficiently as funds will allow." According to Chapel, the Maintenance department has a large storeroom with approximately $400,000 of supplies. Therefore, the effects of the budget cuts will not be immediately felt in his department. Chapel reports that Maintenance has been able to purchase salt and sand in order to combat the snow and sand on CSU streets and sidewalks. "There are priorities," Chapel explained. "Safety for CSU students is one of them." When asked about the future and the lack of personnel and if the budget cuts would leave the See MAINTENANCE page 3
which had been submitted by the Faculty Senate. That proposal by the Senate had been in place for four years without the administration acting on it. According to Perry the administration felt it could not approve it without some changes being made first. "I had discussed the problem with our grading policy in dean's council meetings for years," Perry said. "When I came into office rather than take the responsiblity which had belonged to my predecessor and try to generate a compromise, I decided to take the initative and generate my own personal recommendation." Perry said in a letter to Dr. Lillard that he feels the recommendation is a compromise between the old grading system and the faculty senates proposal. "It is a modification of both the present grading policy and the proposal submitted for consideration by the Faculty Senate," Perry said. The grading policy that was in effect before changes were made was as follows: I - incomplete, given when work is incomplete but could be made up at a later date. F - failure, given when students complete the term but fail to meet minimum standards for passing. Also given when students discon-
tinue class attendance after midterm and do not withdraw. W - withdrawal, given when students offically withdraw before mid-term. WF - withdrawal failing, given when students withdraw after mid-term and are failing at the time of withdrawal. WP - withdrawal passing, given when students withdraw after mid-term and are passing at the time of withdrawal. X - early drop, given when students discontinue class attendance before mid-term and do no offically withdraw. Marks of I, W, WF, WP, F and X carry no grade points. Marks of X, I, W and WP are neutral and in no way affect fhte student's grade average. WF is treated as an F in calculating grade point average. According to Perry, under the new policy the grades of WP and WF have been eliminated and replaced with W. W would be assigned when a student officially withdraws before the last day of classes for the semester. Faculty Senate also wanted to drop the WP and WF but they also wanted to put a time limit of ten weeks on the drop period," said Beverly Cox, faculty senator. Perry said, "I felt it was inconsistant in that the WF counted See GRADES page 3

csu apathy irks student Letter to the Editor I am amazed by the apathetic attitudes of the students on this campus. The paper gives us all a chance to express our opinions and have a forum for an open exchange and all I ever see on the page are cartoons and staff generated editorials. What is wrong with this campus? Doesn't anyone out there have an opinion on something that they feel needs to be changed? Isn't anyone out there on campus reading the little box down at the bottom of the page that says letters are not only invited, but encouraged. They don't encourage them just to fill the space, but to give us, the student body, a chance to be heard by the administration about some of the things that we feel need to be changed. Personally I am somewhat discouraged by the cuts in all the campus facilities, but I haven't heard or seen anybody writing any letters about it. What about the faculty evaluations and all the stories that were written about them last semester? Doesn't anyone want the evaluations to be changed so the students can read about a prospective professor and find out what the previous class thought about him? And did you know the Office of Academic Affairs is planning to ask the Faculty Senate to look into ways to change the student grievance procedures? We need to become more involved in the events that happen here and if we are not satisfied with the job our university officials are doing, then let's let them know and try to work together and make changes. Sure, I've heard it before, we're only going to be here for four years and then we're going to move on into the real world. Well, personally I think that is a lot of baloney. If I'm going to spend four years out of my life pursuing a degree, then I want to be satisfied with the job that the school does. So come on, get involved in your university— attend athletic events, read your school paper and write those letters like L did. M. Cooper

everyday, well, I think that's going too far. Personally I don't think the Reagan administration has anu idea of what the less fortunate in this country are like. How can we expect a president to understand the plight of the homeless and destitute when his wife spends $250,000 for dishes? I'm all in favor of the president of my country eating off nice china, but $250,000 worth? But perhaps I'm in the minority and the rest of the country feels exactly the way the administration does. Perhaps there really are no hungry people in this country and those I saw in downtown Oklahoma City were just illusions. Perhaps, but I seriously doubt it.

GRADES State,local, world news House OKs budget cuts After impassioned debate, the Oklahoma House of Representatives on Tuesday overwhelmingly approved $150 million in state budget cuts. House members voted 94-6 to approve House Bill 1451, a measure that calls for budget cuts of $125 million from the general fund and $25 million from the Department of Human Services. The bill would allow state government to operate "scaled down, but not disrupted," said Rep. Steve Lewis, chairman of the Appropriations and Budget Committee. The cuts would be made between February and the end of June. Approval of the measure followed lengthy debate and a failed attempt by some House members to remove common schools and higher education from the chopping block. The bill proposes more than $83.7 million be cut in education. The bill must be passed by the Senate and signed by the governor to become law.
continued from page 1 against you and the WP was neutral. "When a student withdraws from a class they sacrifice the academic credit they would have earned, they lose their time and the value of their tuition. Nothing is gained by the additional burden of counting a WF as the equivalent of an F when calculating grade point." According to Cox the Faculty Senate wanted to limit the period of withdrawal because of the increased cost to the taxpayer the longer a student waits to drop a class. "For every dollar students spend on education the taxpayers pay four times that much. In 1982-1983 students that dropped classes at CSU cost the taxpayers $3.1 million," Cox said. "Taxpayers don't want to cover the cost for students who drop
classes because they wouldn't get in there and get after it." The new policy retains the grade of I when the class requirements are incomplete, Perry said. But, if a student does not make up the required material in one calendar year the I will become permanent on their transcript. The only way for a student to eradicate an I which has become permanent is to retake the course. If the student comes in and makes up the material the instructor has the right to assign the appropriate grade, Perry said. The Senate also wanted to keep the I but they also wanted a grade taken from the average of work completed and the work not completed, Cox said. If the student made up the required material within one calendar year the appropriate grade would be assigned. If the material
"The largest problem we have with students dropping classes without offically withdrawing is in the freshman class and transfer students," Perry said. "We feel this is because they are uninformed as to the correct procedures for withdrawing from classes. Therefore we are going to undertake a stronger effort to inform students as to the proper procedure for dropping classes."
MAINTENANCE continued from page 1 university in a state of disrepair, Chapel said, "that is largely dependent on what you call a problem. Certain amounts of deferred maintenance may occur, and funds do go fast when catching up."
Chapel compared the state's current financial woes with unemployment. "The longer a person is without a job, the more crucial his situation becomes," Chapel explained. "He needs to be frugal, do the best he can with his resources because the real impact will be felt
Private-use videotaping OK'd In a major legal setback for the motion picture industry, a divided Supreme Court ruled Tuesday the sale and use of home video recorders to tape TV shows for later, private viewing is legal. By a 5-4 vote, the court said Sony Corporation and other manufacturers are not violating federal copyright laws by selling the popular machines, which the industry estimates are owned by about one of every 10 U.S. famailies. U.S. sales of video recorders total nearly $2 billion. The high court may not have the last word, however, in the highstakes battle over video recorders. Movie producers are seeking final victory in Congress, which has the power to rewrite copyright laws. "It may well be that Congress will take a fresh look at this new technology," the court said.
was not made up the I would be dropped and the grade that originally went with it would remain on the transcript. According to Perry, the new policy retains the grade of X consistant with the current policy. When a student drops a class without offically withdrawing the instructor has the option of giving the student an X or an F, Perry said.

Space station planned President Reagan is expected to announce next week, in his State of the Union message, plans to build a manned space station to orbit the Earth with permanent, rotating crews of astronauts, White House officials said. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, which has lobbied strongly for the space station, presented its plans to Reagan on the same day he spoke to astronauts orbiting in the space shuttle last month. NASA Administrator James Beggs has sought the space station as a science laboratory, astronomical observatory, space manufacturing center, spacecraft servicing facility and assembly site for larger orbiting structures.
McAlester inmate stabbed An inmate at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester was stabbed in the back Monday afternoon, a State Department of Corrections spokeswoman said.

Art department offers British trip CSU's Art department will sponsor a tour of the British Isles July 29 through August 14. The seventeen day trip will include sites in England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland. Jo Ann N. Adams, assistant professor of Art, will serve as the tour director. According to Adams, students will have the opportunity to examine art and architecture as well as gain a better understanding of man's greatest artistic accomplishments. "While increasing their understanding of the visual arts through the learning approaches of art history and criticism, students will have the opportunity to support intelligent, sensitive decisions about the culture on the spot," Adams explained. Basic to any course, Adams believes, is building confidence in each student's attitude toward themselves as a creative individual. In order to become more aware of each country's culture, the travelers will have free time to explore the cities, Adams said. The group's first stop will be London, Adams said, where the students will spend four days. There students will view collections at the National Gallery and the Tate Gallery. Emphasized will be the work of
British landscape and portrait painters as well as the magnificent illuminated manuscripts seen at the British Library, according to Adams. The group will then proceed to Salisbury and its Cathedral where the Magna Carta is housed, Adams said. "The mysterious Stonehenge and a guided tour of Bath, England's Roman relics will interest art history buffs," Adams said. After enjoying spectacular sites in southern Wales and crossing St. George's Channel, the travelers will also visit the charming city of Waterford, Ireland, where the Danish Vikings established a stronghold in 853, Adams said. "Waterford is also famous for its exquisite crystal," Adams went on to say. Following the Irish coastline, Adams explained, the students may visit Blarney Castle and kiss the Stone of Eloquence if they wish. "With their grandiose seascapes dotted with legendladen fishing villages, the Ring of Kerry, Waterville, Killarney and Ennis will give even more of a flavor of the emerald isle for the students," Adams said. The students will visit the
Scholarships now offered Five scholarships for summer study at the University of Edinburgh are being made available through Central State University, according to Don Hines, assistant professor of humanities. "The scholarships being offered are for 250 British pounds for six weeks of summer school," said Hines, who is the Scottish university's local representative. "That is roughly equivalent to $350. Hines said the summer session will run July 9 through August 17. "The summer school offers an opportunity for a visit to Scotland which combines excellent educational facilities with time spent in the incomparable surroundings of Scotland's capital city," Hines added.
Golden Vale of Tipperary and spend two nights in Dublin where the best of the Irish capital's artifacts will be available to them, Adams said. "The illuminated manuscripts of the Book of Kells will be a highlight for students of calligraphy," Adams said. According to Adams, the structure of Caernaron Castle in northern Wales will follow the crossing of the Irish Sea from Dun Laoghaire to Holyhead on the Welsh isle of Anglesey. "Painting enthusiasts will want to paint scenes of the lush Scottish Lake District of Windermere and Grasmere," Adams said. "Weavers will enjoy visiting the tartan tweed mill in Moffat. While in Edinburgh, interested people will be able to visit the Edinburgh Company's ten Dovecot Studios where high-warp tapestries are designed and completed, Adams said. "Tapestries are works of art," Adams said. "This is evidenced by the weavings hanging in the castle of the city as well as the Holyrood Palace. The splendid medieval stained glass windows of York Minster will inspire visiting glass artisans, Adams said. Proceeding through Coventry and Stratford, the last leg of the
journey, via private deluxe motorcoach, students will visit Oxford, Eton before returning to London and the United States. According to Adams, the services of a professional tour director and accomodations in first class, hand-picked superior tourist hotels with private baths will be included in the price of the tour. Tips for baggage handling and hotel personnel will also be included. Students taking the trip will receive two hours of undergraduate credit. School educators can gain staff development points toward improvement of their credentials, Adams said. "While tour participants are encouraged to enroll for university course credit, it is not a requirement to take the trip," Adams explained. "This trip was purposely planned for mid-summer when school educators are on vacation," Adams said. "Summer school sessions will also be completed and therefore will not interfere with the trip."

Students train with disabled By MaryGaye Franklin Associate Editor Exceptional children can get a head start on their education at the CSU Special Education Preschool. The preschool was started about 20 years ago by Dr. Fay Catlett, director of special education, according to Karen McGrath, director of the preschool. McGrath is an assistant professor of curriculum and instruction and has been the director of the lab since 1969. The preschool facilities are located in Old North and come under the department of curriculum and instruction—school of education. "The preschool was set up with a dual purpose in mind. For students training to become special education teachers it provides a place where they can gain practical experience working with exceptional children," McGrath said. "The other purpose of the class is provision of a community service to the Oklahoma City area by providing a preschool for exceptional children. "Practicum students teach, observe and assist the children during the time they are here each week." Students who are training to
become psychometrists or school psychologists are provided with the opportunity and experience of testing the children and meeting with the parents to explain test results, McGrath said. These tests are only given to the children with prior parental permission. According to McGrath, children are referred to the preschool by a variety of agencies. Over the years the Child Study Center in Oklahoma City has made many referrals as has the Edmond Guidance Center. "We also get a number of referrals from psychologists in private practice and social workers in the Edmond and Oklahoma City area," McGrath said. "Parents can also enroll their own children in the program if they are not seeking any outside guidance." At the present time there are 15 children enrolled in the preschool and there is a waiting list. Ages of the children range from three to seven years old. They attend classes Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Orignally the lab class was for mentally handicapped children only. But, according to McGrath, over the years it has been expanded to include children with other types of disabilities as the special education program at CSU began to expand and offer courses in
learning disabilities and emotional disturbance.
children are enrolled in the class.
According to McGrath the class does not cure mental retardation, emotional disturbances or many of the other special reasons the
"What we are striving to do is keep each child moving forward at an optimum rate and try and work toward providing a basis for successful school learning later," McGrath said.

"Well, I hope we stand up good against them," James said. "We've seen most of them wrestle and I've had a few kids go against guys from Illinois and Southwest Missouri and they did pretty good," James said. "Traditionally this has been a good tournament for us. With nationals coming up we can use this for a good tune-up match and get all our guys healthy before nationals." James also said the injury situation should not have a great im-

Broncho season hasn't been easy Although it may not seem like a shining season to some fans, the Bronchos have given it their all in trying to win ballgames. At presstime, CSU's record stood at 7-11, after suffering a loss to Northeastern, 82-70. At presstime the Bronchos were on the road against Southeastern in Durant. In their last game against Northeastern, the Bronchos were simply outguuned by the Redmen, who were led by Andy Grosvenor with 17 points and Stacy McIntosh with 16.
CSU's Keith Russell scored a game-high 21 points with 20 of those coming in the second half. This made for CSU's sixth loss in a row. According to Doug Folks, CSU sports information director, the Bronchos started lagging behind the competition when an injury to the Bronchos' high scorer, Chuck Kersgeiter, sidelined him. Kersgeiter was the team's leading scorer with an average of 16.9 points per game. He broke his hand in a pick-up over the
holiday break and is still sitting out the ballgames. With ten games left in the season, playoff hopes for the Bronchos seem pretty nonexistent. The Bronchos next home game is Jan. 21, against USAO.
