Academic dishonesty penalties enforceable By Kamal MazIan Staff Writer About eight cases of academic misconduct by Central State University students were reported during the last 18 months, and most were given failing grades while others resulted in disciplinary actions, according to Dean of Students Dr. Dudley Ryan. "In each of the cases, there was not a reasonable doubt that they were guilty," Ryan said. "As a general rule, all the professors I have worked with will not tolerate cheating in their classes." According to "The American Freshman," a na-
tional survey of first-year students revealed student cheating is rising. In 1988, about 37 percent of students surveyed said they cheated on a test in high school, and 57 percent copied another's work. Both statistics are an increase from 1987. Ryan said CSU students resorted to a variety of methods, including copying exam answers from someone else or from handwritten notes, plagiarizing a term paper and falsifying university office records. For instance, Ryan said, a complaint was made about a student charged with academic fraud: altering office records such as the student's transcript. Please see CHEATING on page 8.

Class growth sparks need

The growing popularity of their chemical dependency program and dealing with the influx of new students are important considerations for the Central State University sociology department, said Dr. Richard Rettig, department chairman. "We have two part-time teachers qualified to teach these classes in chemical dependency, and as of this spring semester, 105 newlydeclared majors in this field," Rettig said. Dr. Clif Warren, dean of the
college of liberal arts, said the unexpected growth in enrollment caused an immediate need to implement long-range plans. "A request for program expansion was already in the department's 10-year plan, but the increase in program enrollment was a big jump from last year," Warren said. "We knew it would be large, but not this large." Statistics provided by Institutional Research and Planning show the college of liberal arts had 2,904 students enrolled last semester, and 507 were pursuing sociology degrees. Rettig said new students for this
major did not all enter the program from within the sociology department; many were from other colleges on the campus. "There are not very many programs available nationally for this degree, and there is not another program here in Oklahoma," Rettig said. Most areas of concentration offer students a three-part plan; a degree, an option to a degree such as the chemical dependency program, and a minor, Rettig said. "We want to make this a degree program, not just an option to a degree," Rettig said. Please see GROWTH on page 8.
Campus detective Forbes spoils morning for burglar By Mark Schlachtenhaufen Managing Editor While most Edmond citizens were just getting out of bed Tuesday morning, Ed Forbes, Central State University Campus Police sergeant, apprehended Brian Cole Edwards during a possible burglary. Forbes held the suspect until Lt. Gregg of the Edmond Police Department responded to the call. arriving on the scene to arrest Ed-
wards, Forbes said. About 8 a.m., Forbes' wife noticed an unattended 1989 Datsun pickup with its engine running in front of a neighbor's house on High Hill Road in the Meadowlakes addition of Edmond. Forbes' wife said she called the neighbors, who said they knew nothing about the car. Forbes' wife alerted her husband and called 911. The CSU detective proceeded outside armed with a pistol, una-
ware of the number of suspects involved, Forbes' wife said. Forbes waited for a suspect to appear, at which time he revealed his police badge to the suspect. Additional officers from the Edmond Police Department arrived to search the house for fingerprints. "I was not worried about the chance there might be more than one person involved," Forbes said.

Free expression faces prohibition By DeWayne Smoot
Editor in chief A new trend toward suppressing individual liberties of free speech is taking root on college campuses across America, sanctioned preservations of free thought. Students armed with fears and ignorances of racial, ethnic and religious tension swelling on campuses are, in many cases, advocating these restrictions limiting individual expression. The zealotry behind this ill-conceived plan to prohibit offensive slurs and actions—of its own design an imposition to the pursuit of intellectual stimulation and identity—is not a show of support for racial equality; nor does it portray mutual respect for other, but different, groups and individuals. The qualities emerging from this movement is a cancerous growth evolving from the numb existence of a generation motivated only by the thoughtless promise of personal gain. Restricting discussion and debate on controversial issues will not eliminate—or even discourage—racism, sexism or any
belief of inherent superiority. Suppressing public debate will only drive the oppressors underground where unspent angers and frustrations fester, spawn bigotry and poison society.
6ecAuse RqAt-of NEVER C
Already, several universities, including prestigous law schools, have adopted official policies outlining discipline procedures for punishing violators of, oftentimes, vaguely defined codes. University of Wisconsin students can be tried for "racist or discriminatory comment ... or other expressive behavior directed at an individual" if the accused intended to "demean the race, sex or religion" of the offended. Student organizations at Stanford University and New York University Law School—several representing law student associations—are pushing for speech restrictions. It's a very real possibility these new wave prohibitionists could be appointed or elected to command key judicial and legislative positions. Every effort to curb this masked aberration must be made before its momentum swells and swallows any chance of protecting the civil liberties founded 200 years ago and guaranteed in the Bill of Rights.
Vista publisher upholds press law To the Editor: A letter to the editor from Dr. Richard Rettig, chairman, sociology department, suggested that I—as administrative publisher of The Vista—should have prohi-
bited publication of another letter he did not like. An opinion issued by the attorney general of Oklahoma—which has the force of law—says faculty and staff may censor from student publications only that which is il-
legal to publish. Libels, lotteries, calls for violent overthrow of the government are samples of what staff and faculty may prohibit. News and critical opinion may not be censored. The letter Dr. Rettig did not like
In retrospect
Second chance obliged By Debbie Blossom
Staff Writer This is my second time to go to college. Looking back, I'm not sure what happened the first time. I am sure a great many of us are not clear about what happened back when we were 18. I remember so little of my initial attempt at higher education I feel safe in saying I was probably in a coma for the entire four years. Everything seems hazy. I don't remember any memorable classes, projects or reports. All teachers except one have faded from my memory. The only thing I can recall about the school paper is the name. Did I ever even read it? I could swear I did, but not one controversial issue comes to mind. After enrolling as a 17-year-old freshman, I don't believe I ever went into the administration building again. Except for female students protesting about dorm restrictions that were levied against them and not their male counterparts (I was actually involved in this outcry), no other problems between administration, students or faculty caught my fancy.
I have come to the conclusion that I'm a shining example of the "just get through school, you're a girl, everything will work out O.K." school of thought that hung over large universities in the 1970s. I wasn't in education, so what else was there to do but get one of those vague liberal arts degrees? I'd probably just get married anyway. It's 20 years later, and thank goodness it appears things have changed. Women get all sorts of interesting degrees now. They want to succeed because they have grown up with the "you can do anything you want to" school of thought. It's not that it wasn't around before, it just wasn't as full-blown an idea. "It's never too late to try." I'm getting a little tired of that comment, but no one is more thankful than I am to be able to have a second chance. It's not easy to admit to yourself, or any other significant others, that you screwed up the first time. But it is worth the new friends, the new and, sometimes, long-awaited-for feelings of accomplishment, and a childish pride in having perfect attendance. And I might even get married again.
was critical of what the writer considered inadequate punishment of a faculty member for a misdemeanor. Such critical comment is not illegal and therefore may not be prohibited by me. Dr. Rettig pointed out that the punishment was what the court deemed appropriate for the case. I agree. In fact, this is about the fifth time this matter has been brought up again in The Vista, each time inflicting further anguish on the faculty member. How many times must a person be punished for a misdemeanor before some critics get satisfied? But I still cannot prohibit such criticism, if the student editors want to publish it. That is the law.

AIDS, society profs' focus By James Jackson Staff Writer Two Central State University professors presented "Health, Privacy and AIDS," before the annual American Society of Criminology conference in Reno, Nev. last November. The material presented was a joint effort addressing possible problems resulting from legislation making it a crime for anyone with AIDS to knowingly spread the virus. Dr. Joan Luxenburg, associate professor of sociology and criminal justice and Dr. Thomas E. Guild, assistant professor of business law discussed in their paper whether society should criminalize the spread of AIDS when it occurs through non-commercial, consentual sexual relations.
THE
"One of the problems is when you make this a problem of the criminal justice system and not a problem of the health care system," Guild said. Making transmission of AIDS a criminal problem would tend to drive the people who need testing and treatment underground, he said. He compared this to people seeking treatment for drug addiction. "One of the reasons many people don't seek diagnosis and treatment for drug problems is because many of the drugs that they're using are illegal," Guild said. "If you know that what you're doing is illegal, you don't want to go and freely volunteer that information to someone that could conceivably turn them in," he said. According to Guild and Luxenburg, proving the virus was trans-

mined by a particular person would be difficult and could result in significant violation of personal privacy because of the need to know the other sexual relations of person filing the complaint. Guild said because of the sensational nature of AIDS, some poorly-planned proposals were made. Now, he said people have started to take a responsible and mature approach to the problem. Another question discussed in the paper was the difficulties in dealing with and providing for infected inmates. "As things calm down we will realize that the last thing we need is to dump a new group of people on the criminal justice system," Guild said. The goal is not to punish people with AIDS, but to stop the spread of the virus, he said.

Winning entry almost trashed
Coed wins $100 for motto By Andrew Smith Staff Writer Central State University's College of Business Administration has a new motto. However, motto designer Delena Lang said she nearly scrapped the saying before it was reviewed by judges Dec. 1. "I spent three hours on this contest," said Lang, "and wasn't about to turn in "Learning Today — Leading Tomorrow" because I thought it was stupid and too simple. I just started putting down sayings. Whatever came to mind, I jotted down." Lang received her $100 firstplace check Monday after turning in two entries. Lang's winning entry will be incorporated into the $250 logo contest Business Administration is sponsoring.
"There were approximately 50 students who participated in the contest," Dr. Ed Fortenberry, Chairperson of the Business Department said. "Out of those students, we had about 70 entries." "We've been pleased at the results so far," Fortenberry said. "The motto really represents the mission of the College of Business. We wanted to make sure that the motto was applicable to our goal: to apply the learning acquired in order to lead tomorrow." A subcommittee of club presidents screened the initial 70 mottos, narrowing the entries to five finalists: • Progress Unhampered by Tradition; • To Serve, Venture, and Conquer;
• Learning Today—Leading Tomorrow; • and The Noble Yearn for Adversity and Preparing Minds Today for Tomorrow's Decisions. "By majority vote we selected the best motto that would represent the College of Business," Fortenberry said. A Murdaugh Hall resident, Lang said she enjoys living on campus because of the people she encounters everyday. Inspiration came from friends on campus who urged her to submit the motto. "I enjoy working with people," Lang said. "I graduated from a small high school and CSU's size allows me to meet people with different walks of life all the time. "I'm just glad I participated," said Lang. "Otherwise, I would not have the extra $100."
Representatives from East, West, Thatcher and Murdaugh Halls will attend the Oklahoma Residents Hall Association Conference (OKRHA) Scheduled to meet Friday and Saturday in Norman at the Oklahoma University campus. There will be four sessions Saturday discussing topics ranging from stress management and recognizing the warning signs of suicide to programming student government and campus activities for residents. About 150 students from universities around the state are expected to attend the conference, said conference officials. Debbie Blanke, West Hall head resident, said the conference is important to students who live on campus. The ultimate goal of all
supportive family attitude like a small community, Blanke said. Murdaugh Hall Council President Pam Tate said, "While each , hall is separate, they are all interdependent on each other. "This conference should give us some good ideas about common issues." OKRHA was inactive for a short time before it was revived in 1987. The "Great Debate Conference" was the turning point for the organization, Blanke said. The conference provided a forum for students to express their needs for this type of organization, she said. Since then, CSU has hosted an OKRHA conference in 1988 and one in1989. The opening session will begin at 7 p.m. Friday and will be followed by a dance. Students will stay on the OU campus. The conference will conclude with a banquet at 7 p.m. Saturday. .11•11.4.

Senate OKs soccer bill Speaker, senators dole out $100 soccer fees By Andrew Smith Staff Writer The Central State University Student Senate voted on resolutions postponed last week, passing resolutions 88-204 and 89-108 while pushing back five other resolutions until next Monday. Resolution 89-108, requesting the administration to consider giving soccer club varsity status, passed by a 9-3 vote. Last year, SA President Joe Stehr returned the resolution to Activities Committee, forcing Senator Tim Heflin, author of the resolution, to reword the resolution using the word "request" instead of demanding that the soccer club receive varsity status, Speaker David Slane said.
Slane allocated $90 from his contingency fund for the club's entrance fee. A club stipulation administered by Slane will force the players to have a GPA of 2.5 prior to receiving aid. The Activities Committee collected $10 from the senators providing $100 total to the club, Slane said. "The other bills weren't passed due to classes pressuring us the first week," Slane said. "We didn't have time to sit down and review each resolution in our committees." Resolution 88-204, requesting the administration to extend visitation hours for residence hall passed by consent. New resolutions were mentioned but were not brought up for
a vote due to technical difficulty with copying. Resolutions 89-205 and 89-206, requests the administration to allow each building to have a copier for easy access and thereby relieve the pressure of outside sources in that department. In other business, the Student Senate Activities Committee is sponsoring comedy night Feb. 8. Spanky, a Texas-based comedian will become the main attraction chair, Senator Joacquin Stevens said. "We're hoping that students will come out to see where their money is going into," Stevens said. "His appearance in "Comic Strip Live" as well as "The Late Show" and other guest appearances on television should make this a worthwhile activity."
Exhibit spotlights success Accomplishments by black women during the last 200 years will be featured in a 20-poster exhibit coming to University Center Feb.
1 "Black Women: Achievements Against the Odds," was produced by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service. The exhibit is part of an historical study of contributions from 120 women. Kathy Dickson, Oklahoma Historical Society museum director, said these contributions developed through a variety of different areas including education, journalism, government and politics, business and literature, "We purchased the 20 posters
from the Smithsonian and mounted them for this exhibit," Dickson said. Included with the exhibit, which is being shown throughout the state, is an audio visual presentation focusing on Oklahoma black women, Dickson said. Judy Elwell, University Center activities director, said response to these educational exhibits, which are presented on a monthly basis each semester at CSU, has been good. "Local teachers bring their classes in to view the exhibits, and Dr. Warren, liberal arts dean, has used the visual aids that are available with each exhibition," Elwell said. "We feel the exhibit will coincide with National Black Heritage Month, and with Black Heritage

Coed frightened Teaching evaluation by flasher while institute offered walking to dorm By Erin Mitchell Student Writer An institute concerning "Instructional Evaluation in Training and Development" will be offered at Central State University this spring at 7:30 p.m. on Mondays. Dr. Richard L. Sullivan, associate professor of administration, vocational, adult and higher education, said the institute is available to both graduate and undergraduate students and requires no prerequisites. "Some of the things a student will learn from this course include the application of essential mea-
surement concepts in training and development, constructive measures of performance, and evaluadon," Sullivan said. The institute examines techniques for evaluation of design and delivery and evaluation of training, placing emphasis on the administration of cognitive tests. Students will be presented with a set of performance and enabling objectives for a given training program. Within these guidelines, Sullivan said students will construct measures of cognitive achievement, performance and affect. For more information call Sullivan at 341-2980 Ext. 5741.

Bronchos hold off late `Hound' rally, 83-81 By Ray Dozier Student Writer Central State University captured its first Lone Star Conference victory with the help of junior guard Shawn Williams' 27 points Monday night, edging Eastern New Mexico 83-81 at the Broncho Field House. CSU opened with a 4-0 lead and held the advantage until 4:04 remained, when ENM's Ron Milam tied the score at 72-72. The Bronchos had their biggest lead of 17 points with 9:53 left, but five consecutive CSU turnovers aided
the Greyhounds' comeback with a 23-2 run over the next 6:30. ENM's Ron Milam knotted the score at 72-72 with a layup at the 4:04 mark. The Greyhounds took the lead for the first time, 74-72, on Darwin Pauley's layup with 3:16 remaining. CSU regained the lead on Sean McCall's layup with 1:14 left. McCall grabbed the rebound on the ensuing Greyhound possession and was tackled at mid-court by Milam which resulted in a technical foul called on Milam. McCall sank both free throws for a 79-76 Broncho lead with 28 sec-
onds remaining. With the clock working against them, the Greyhounds immediately fouled Marlon Brown who successfully sank two free throws for a 81-76 Broncho lead. Brown was the game's second leading scorer with 20 points in addition to grabbing a career-high 16 rebounds. Pauley answered back with a three-pointer to pull ENM within two points with nine seconds on the clock. Brown sank two more free throws with seven seconds left to put the game out of reach, 83-79.

Lady cagers win conference game By Tamara Evans Student Writer Junior guard Shene Murphy scored 26 points Monday, leading the Lady Bronchos to their first Lone Star Conference victory against Eastern New Mexico here, 78-62. The Lady Bronchos stormed out the gates, scoring the first 12 points of the game. CSU senior guard Shawn Williams returned from a minor sprained ankle suffered last week in practice and scored 16 points while senior forward Paula Peteet contributed 13 points. Lady Broncho Head Coach John Keely said he was pleased that 10 of 12 players scored for the team. The Zias rallied before intermission, narrowing the Lady Bronchos lead to 32-29.
Following the break, the Zias quickly tied the game at 32 apiece before CSU began rebuilding a substantial lead. CSU scored its last points when Robin Wiley added two points with five seconds left in the game pushing Central State to its third straight home victory over the Zias. Peteet grabbed 10 rebounds for the game while Murphy and Gwen Porter each had six each. Rae Martin had five assists, and Kristi Heglin added four more and three steals. The Lady Bronchos shot 44 percent from the field and 77 percent from the free-throw line compared to 37 percent from the field and 71 percent from line for the Zias. CSU is now 1-3 in the Lone Star Conference and 7-7 overall. Following a two-game road stint, the Lady Bronchos return home Feb. 3.
Central State University's 6-foot-7 center Bobby "Bobcat" Harris is known for his quick moves and all-out hustle on the court. The Rayville, La. senior is captain of the Broncho basketball team and leads CSU in rebounds with nine per game while averaging eight points. Harris said his nickname came from a "never say die" attitude. "My dad gave me that nickname years ago because I was a bothersome kind of fellow who didn't know when to quit," Harris said. "I like the type of basketball we play here; up-and-down, fastpaced and pressure defense— because I'm the kind of player that doesn't like to back down," he said. Broncho Head Coach Jim Seward agrees. "Bobby plays as hard as any player I've ever had," he said. "He gives great, great effort all the time, day in and day out. We certainly cherish his moments be-
Bobby Harris cause he just does a great job in his overall effort," Seward said. Harris, a transfer from Kansas City Community College, has grown to his present height after being only 5-foot-8 in high school. The 25-year-old received a chef's degree from a culinary art school in Dallas. He then worked as a chef at the Marriott Hotel. While at the Marriott, Harris prepared a meal for a famous television villain. "The guy who played J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman) on Dallas, came in. The chef who was my boss liked the way I prepared all my meals, so he asked me to cook it," Harris said.
"I didn't get to meet him, but he sent a message back to me and told me he enjoyed the meal," he said. While working later as a chef at a Houston hotel, Harris was noticed by Kansas City Community College coaches during pick-up basketball games. KCCC offered him a scholarship, and he went on to start two years at Kansas City as a rebounding specialist before transferring to CSU in 1988. In his first season as a Broncho, Harris averaged six points and 10 rebounds a game, second in the Lone Star Conference and 19th in NCAA II. Harris' ambition is to be a stock broker, but victories are a number one priority now, he said. "From here on out, I think we just need to get our minds straight," he said. "We have the talent to go out and destroy people, but some of us may be holding back. The last few games we've been trying to shoot too much from the outside instead of playing the inside-outside game," Harris said. "We just need to play up to our potential, because we have the talent for it."
CSU thinclads place in Sooner Relays By Ray Dozier Student Writer Seniors Rodney Glenn (hurdler) and Terry Lawson (800-meter runner) led Broncho tracksters with first place finishes at the Sooner Indoor Relays Saturday at the Myriad in Oklahoma City. Four Bronchos took second place: Tom Lucas, 55-meter dash; Tracy Russell, Kyle Skartwed,,
Aaron Sprague and Lawson, 3200-meter relay; Darren Wilson, Temieke Chatman, Bill Uptertgrove and Skartwed, distant medley relay; and Selenia Smith in the women's 400-meter dash. The Bronchos had five men finish third: Tony Loud, 55-meter dash; Aaron Sprague, 800-meters; Kyle Skartwed, one mile; Kevin Nichols, shot put; and Justin Strickland, pole vault.

Campus police chief serves citizens, sport Roberts spends extra time making calls behind plate By Jim Reagan Student Writer Central State University Campus Police Chief Bob Roberts began his career as a patrolman over 14 years ago. Now he heads a campus police force which includes 23 officers, a department equivalent in size to the Nichols Hills neighborhood police force. Roberts said he is a man who loves baseball and is more than just an armchair fan. "I started officiating while a semipro baseball player in Oklahoma City in the 1960's," he said. "I wanted to play major league baseball, but I just didn't have the tools." Did Roberts think his part-time job would ever amount to anything? "No, not really," he admitted. "My first goal was to work the high school baseball playoffs. Then, I wanted to try college ball. It all went from there." Roberts officiates at least 90 baseball games each spring and summer. making him one of the top collegiate umpires in the
country. His list of umpiring credentials continues including five NCAA tournaments, several Oklahoma state tournaments as well as last year's College World Series in Omaha, Nebr. His officiating career started innocently enough, Roberts said. His pinnacle was attained while officiating during the College World Series, Roberts said. He was one of six umpires selected from a pool of 40 umpires used at the regional tournaments during the 1989 playoffs. "Being assigned to the College World Series has been my biggest thrill," Roberts said, also noting the vast media coverage and attention generated by the event. Looking back at all the games he has officiated, the bedlam series between the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University is usually the most intense, Roberts said. It was at a 1973 bedlam series that Roberts said he felt the most threatened. In that three-game set, Roberts said close calls he made ended two of the games. In one of the contests, a walk decided the outcome while a close play at first base marked the decision of the other game. Both went against OSU. "Chet Bryan was the coach at OSU, and the games were being

played at Haskell Park in Norman," Roberts said. "Bryan was getting on me pretty good. There is little you can do about that," shrugged Roberts. "But I have never ejected a fan." In his travels, Roberts has had the chance to see plenty of bigleague talent. He singled out former OU pitcher Jackson Todd as a master of many pitches. Roberts didn't hesitate in naming the best baseball player he has seen. "Roger Clemens threw hard and his fastball was really alive. He was great," Roberts said. On the wall of Roberts' campus office is a photo of him calling a Philadelphia player out at first base. That player is Pete Rose. "Baseball is the love of my life," Roberts said. And he has the baseball stories to prove it.
Tired of Spring Break trips to South Padre? The College of Education is sponsoring a sight-seeing trip open to anyone interested in England and France during Spring Break in March. Dr. William Van Osdol, curriculum and instruction professor, said anyone can enroll for the trip which counts toward one credit hour. In its 14th year, the trip was originated by Dr. Van Osdol. The tour group will leave Oklahoma City March 16, and return March 25. Total cost of the tour is $978, with a $100 deposit, Van Osdol said. Airfare, hotel, three days of tours, breakfast and ground transportation are included in the cost. In London, tour members can take full-day excursions to Windsor Castle and Hampton Court.

The group plans to spend one day in France, and members can visit wherever they choose. Group members will go to Dover, England, and cross the English Channel by ferry to Calais, France, Goss said. The college will is also planning a trip to Malaysia June 29 through July 15.

"Office records are anything that belongs to a student., but the records had been altered and submitted to other schools by the student involved," Ryan said. Ryan said some cases involved students who cheated on their tests and term papers. Most cases were resolved by professors teaching the courses, with the students getting failing grades and no opportunity to repeat the class. "That is the price students have
to pay for cheating. The failing grades will not only affect their GPA, but the offense will be a red spot in their records," Ryan said. Disciplinary actions for students who cheat include conduct probation, suspension of not more than a year, or expulsion, Ryan said. When a complaint or report is made about cheating, Ryan said he explains the complaint to the student and the relevant evidence and

Dr. Elizabeth Berger, sociology professor and head of the chemical dependency program, said the department is requesting a full-time teacher for the third year of the program. "We were supposed to have two part-time teachers for the program, but we lost one in the adjunct
faculty cuts last fall," Berger said. "Other sociology faculty, myself for one, had to fill in for these classes." Berger said she thinks the response to the program is excellent, but student needs can not be met with the present teaching staff.
testimony. "After the office (of student services) completes investigating the case, I will recommend a penalty and explain to the student of the consequences," Ryan said. If a student received a failing grade, Ryan said, the student could appeal his or her case to the Committee on Student Conduct. Why do students cheat? "A desire for good grades, so as to get high-paying jobs, or to get into good graduate schools, or to present a better picture to parents who are paying for their education," Ryan said. "Frankly speaking, we cannot accept excuses."

Forbes said no items were taken from the house, but that further investigation by the Edmond Police Technical Investigation unit revealed a VCR was found unplugged in the house. No other items had been tampered with, Forbes said. "It was nothing but an attempted burglary," Forbes said. At presstime, charges had not been filed and Edmond Police had up to 72 hours to file, according to Forbes. Forbes said CSU Police have
not had a case of an off-duty officer in similar incidents during the past year. It was the first such case for Forbes, who said he has been with the Campus Police for five years. Forbes said Edwards was wearing a monogramed shirt and designer shoes, not the profile of a typical burglary suspect. An earlier incident in the addition involved a pickup, which was not a Datsun, but created a sense of suspicion, Forbes said. "People that are victims of crime feel violated," Forbes said. "I don't know what it is in society that makes people do things like that."
