Student's letter ignites threat of lawsuit By Jessica Halliburton Staff Writer
Pittman said the letter was malicious. "On the advice of my lawyer A UCO English professor said I'm suing this man for this she is suing malicious letter, and I have no eqr;z1 301ft a former other comment," said Pittman. UCO student Bob Taliaferro said he can't over a letter understand why he is being sued, he wrote to but stands behind his letter. President The Vista obtained the letter George Nigh dated Dec. 14 in which la s t Taliaferro apologized to Nigh for semester. accusations he made against the D r president and the administration Pamela at a student rally concerning the Pittman '20 to make' rule Nov. 9. His :,:
letter centered around the accusation that an administrative retreat was taken in Cancun, Mexico. Taliaferro claims in his letter to Nigh that "the faculty member responsible for promoting the disinformation about the alleged trip was Dr. Pamela Pittman." He said Pittman told him about the retreat in her office. "At the time I had no reason to not believe what she was said. I assumed because she was an instructor that she was telling the
truth," he said. Taliaferro said Pittman promoted the accusation and encouraged him to become involved in the student protest where he made the accusation in front of more than 150 students and various members of the news media. "I thought I was doing something good at the time by pointing out something I thought the students should know. I guess I should have just kept my nose in the books," he said. Taliaferro also said in his
letter that Pittman said she was to be reviewed for tenure. Dr. Michael Shirley, president's liaison to the faculty, confirmed that Pittman is being reviewed for tenure. "I believe that all the recommendations from her department have been made," he said. "The president makes the final recommendation for the tenure of all faculty before it goes on to be approved by the Board of

Sheesh, the things people say. Jocks, preps, hackers, goths, skaters, hippies, alter-natives, punk rockers— everyone uses slang. During the past three decades, slang and catch phrases have really come into their own. In the '70s the punk rockers broke out and "Oi" came into the language along with various grunts, growls and assorted bleedin' British words. The '70s also continued to use and expand on the '60s penchant for words like "heavy" and "deep." However, when it comes to generating slang, no decade can compete with the '80s. The yuppie network obliviously touched base while goths and punks yelled "Die Yuppie Scum." At the same time, surfers and bimbos from the West Coast, with the help of Moon Unit Zappa, used their collective brain power to create "Val speak." Oh my god, gag me with a spoon. Now in the '90s most slang comes from the media—from Homer Simpson's "Dowh" to Captain Picard's "Make it so." At UCO, current and not so current slang words and catch phrases fly through the cold winter air. "Let's motor;" a typically '80s saying implemented mainly by -

hen the trees come down, the wind blows stronger. As the wind blows stronger, the dirt flies harder. When the dirt flies harder, students seek refuge behind books, buildings and buddies. UCO students would probably be the first to admit and fully understand that progress requires sacrifice. We drudge through red mud, hurdle construction blockades and even hike for what seems like a mile in order to get to a class in the next building. So what are we supposed to do now that all of our quiet shady spots are being taken away? Well, they tell us our trees will be replaced. But everyone who has ever planted a tree as a kid knows that it's never ready to climb until you move away to college. Now we're in college. All the big trees are at home. We're too big to climb trees, but would like to hide from the wind under one. Have you ever tried hiding from anything under a seedling? Good luck. Now we're waiting for the UCO seedlings to grow. The sound of jackhammers and dump trucks make us want to rip our hair out. But there's a place we can go to escape. It's paid for and maintained by the university and admission is free. It's a quiet little nook right here on campus. Don't get too excited just yet, there's a few things you may have to overlook in order to enjoy yourself. Now all you've got to do is get there. Head straight for the center of campus, we can't offer any specific course as it will change by next week. Walk around empty Thatcher Lake, you'll find norecourse there. Crossing the pay lot, dodge the fleeing cars. Straight ahead, you can catch a glimpse of it's branches. Restrain yourself from running into traffic. You should see it- by now. A large shade tree smack dab in the middle of parking lot 5. It's like no other on campus; no mud, no barricades, no wind. Students, grab a blanket and take a load off. Exhaust fumes not withstanding, it's the perfect getaway. On

LETTERS
Senator refutes president's claims In response to the recent article, SGA president reiterates old "6'by 96" promises, Jan. 23, I would like to remind students of UCO that President Gregory campaigned on the "6 by 96" promises when he was running for vice president and did not make them a priority until The Vista brought them to his attention. It seems to me he is trying to capitalize on the negative press and excuse himself from the blame for the mistakes of the previous semester. To further explain, President Gregory was nowhere to be found in his semester as vice president. In fact, he rarely gave his scheduled reports in the weekly SGA meetings. He made no headway on the six promises, yet is trying to take credit for the Housing Improvement Act and
the 24-hour study area with snack bar which was passed under the leadership of President Jarboe and Speaker of the Senate Keith Weber. President Gregory is as much the reason for SGA's image problem as anyone is because of his inactivity! President Gregory also stated that the Battle for the Bronze would be his main focus for the upcoming semester; let us hope he gets more done this semester than he did in the last. One of the requirements to be SGA president and to receive the scholarship that accompanies this office is to serve 20 office hours every week. As vice president, Dustin Gregory did not serve his 10 weekly office hours and I will be surprised if he meets the requirement for president. Furthermore, student
politicians who are touted as student leaders should set a god example for the UCO population. As president, Gregory should be resultsoriented, not remiss in his duties as he was as vice president. Only time will tell. However, in the past, this has not been the practice with Gregory, moreless his philosophy was symbolism over substance and in reading this article it seems to me that he is starting his presidency with the same ideals. I hope that Dustin's philosophy changes or it will be an unproductive semester for the UCO Student Government Association. —Donna Whinery

UCO hoops sweeps homestand By Jeff Packham Sports Writer It was a fitting tribute to Super Bowl week that someone named Sanders would steal the Show. However, he wasn't Deion and he wasn't playing football in Tempe, Ariz. Senior swingman Scott Sanders averaged 27.5 points in two games to lead the UCO men's basketball team to Lone Star Conference victories over Abilene Christian, 106-92, and Angelo State, 107-77. Sanders, who entered the week averaging just 14 points a contest, also contributed 6.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists and two steals per game for the Bronchos (12-7, 5-4). The victory over Angelo State (4-15, 0-8) was UCO's third in a row and swept the season series over the Rams. Down 10-3 early in the game to ASU, an alley-oop dunk by DeWayne Rogers ignited a 16-0 run by the Bronchos and ASU never got closer than six points the rest of the way. "As soon as somebody shows us a zone, we often try that (the alley-oop play)," Bronchos' head coach Jim Seward said. "But it was also something that they were doing to slow us down, so in reality it probably helped us get going."

Turnovers played a key role in the contest as UCO forced 27 turnovers, including eight by Tyrone Hopkins. The Bronchos half-court trap was responsible for many of those mistakes. "We knew going in they were down, and that we wanted to set the tempo," Seward said. "I think the trapping was a good thing." Sanders led the Bronchos with 26 points. Hopkins had his second-straight double-double with 24 points and 14 rebounds, and Tyshon Fisher added 21 points and 12 rebounds against the Rams. Angelo State received a game-high 28 points from guard Tony Brown and 15 points from Tony Avezzano, with both players getting most of their points after the game was decided. Sanders played a nearflawless game against Abilene Christian, hitting 60-percent from the field for a game-high 29 points, grabbing eight rebounds, dishing out six assists and not turning the ball over in 37 minutes. The Bronchos shot 50-percent from the field in the second half and opened up a tight game by hitting timely free throws in the waning minutes against the Wildcats (8-10, 1-7). UCO also received 24 points from Rogers and 22 points and a

game-high 11 rebounds from Hopkins. ACU was led by Charles Jackson's 21 points and Broderick Bobb's 20 points. Jason Milwee also added 17 points and a team-high 10 rebounds for the Wildcats. The Bronchos have won three games in a row and look to be streaking at the right time. "We're actually two games away from being in first place (in the conference)," Seward said. "I do think we're starting to do a lot of things better and more consistently. I wouldn't necessarily bet on us as the season goes on for the conference tournament, but I know one thing — I wouldn't bet against us." UCO goes on the road next week to play games against West Texas A&M Thursday, Feb. 1, and Eastern New Mexico Saturday, Feb. 3.
UCO loses its 10th By Jeff Packham Sports Writer Freshman Mary Rhodes hit five three-pointers en route to a season-high 25 points, but the slumping Lady Bronchos lost their third straight, 77-72, to Angelo State. Rhodes' 25 points is a season high individually for UCO and she continues to lead the Lone Star Conference in threepointers with 47. ASU (3-16, 2-7) forced 23 turnovers against UCO (8-10, 37), who had previously defeated the Lady Rams in Edmond this season. Christy Heavin scored 18 points and pulled down a gamehigh 13 rebounds for the Lady Bronchos. Mandy Carlson, UCO's leading scorer coming into the game, fouled out with seven points in 23 minutes. ASU was led by Amber Cooper with 21 points and Jeri Roberson with 19 points.
The loss was the second of a two-game road swing for UCO. The Lady Bronchos were overwhelmed, 109-60, by topranked Abilene Christian two nights earlier. The 49 points is tied for the fourth-worst margin of defeat in the Lady Bronchos' history. UCO lost to undefeated ACU by 40 points in Edmond earlier this season. Angela Flynn scored 16 points, Carlson added 12 points and Alisha Bright had 11 rebounds for UCO. Jennifer Clarkson had 21 points to lead ACU. Cheree Monden scored 18 points, Jill Kurschner came off the bench for 15 points and Caroline Omamo added 14 points and 11 rebounds. The Lady Bronchos begin a three-game homestand with West Texas A&M Thursday, Feb. 1, and Eastern New Mexico Saturday, Feb. 3.

Broncho wrestlers take championship By Richard Tortorelli
Sports Writer UCO defeated Northern Colorado 24-13 to take first place in the NCAA Division II Showdown Duals Saturday, and UCO wrestling coach David James knew that his squad needed a strong performance in the Duals. "I thought it was crucial. We've been kind of struggling," said James, whose team has lost to Division I powers Oklahoma, Arizona State, and Michigan State this season. "It's been a trying year for us. We were at 3-5 in duals. We've had some positive notes, but it's been based on individuals. We needed to get some things turned around with our team." The four-time defending national champion Bronchos won their third straight Showdown Duals title, besting Southern Colorado 34-6, North Dakota
28-9 and Western State 37-4 Friday at Hamilton Field House en route to the championship dual and their 45th consecutive home dual victory. "There's a lot of people in these teams that obviously have been able to watch us wrestle and see us struggle, so they're excited about that," said James. "I think if anything, hopefully, we kicked (the intensity) up a little bit." UCO, who improved to 7-5, took the early lead against Northern Colorado as 118-pounder Keith Kizarr and 126pounder Matt Goodson combined for 13 takedowns, eight by Kizarr as each scored major decisions to give UCO an 8-0 lead. UCO's tandem of top-ranked wrestlers, 142-pounder Jerry Best and 150-pounder Shawn Bateman, struck back with Best recording a major decision and Bateman pinning his opponent.

Best totaled three takedowns and a near fall in a 13-5 victory. Bateman scored three takedowns before pinning 9' his opponent late in the third period giving UCO an 18-4 advantage. UNC rallied as they won three of the next four matches, but UCO still led 1810 and 21-13 before heavyweight Jeff Pease sealed the championship with a 43 victory for the final score. "The most important thing was we needed to get something positive rolling with our team and hopefully from that we can build and just progress each week," said James. "By no means are we all there, or my entire team's there yet, but we're making progress forward."

with sarcasm. "Friggin freezing," is how one person described the winter weather. "Bitchin," is an '80s term for cool. Also used are "killer, fly, kickin, gnarly and awesome."

The Vista's Brady Bunch (or is it the Mansons?) By Mary Reinauer Staff Writer UCO athletic teams, the marching band, ROTC and The Vista are all student organizations that practiceae functions they hope to someday 'perform on a professional level. As a Vista writer, I have the same question most of our readers have about our staff: where do they get these people? There's Leslie "I'm in the book" Wakulich, our managing editor. Leslie's a sweet child, until she puts on her editor hat. "This paragraph is clumsy, ungrammatical and cliched. Should we cut? You decidee," she scrawls, crayon in one chubby fist and a machete in the other. Nevertheless, Wakulich is a vast improvement over editors Cynthia "The Butcher" Chung and Anthony "Mud" Tompkins. When I did a story on the Beatles, Chung asked me if Don McLean was one of the lads; and rumor has it Tompkins' P.J.s are embroidered "Chief' in 11-point pica. Copy editor Farzana "Farzie" Razak's eyes contain not rods and cones, but laser beams and spell check, and she refers to her tattoos as "body graphics." John "Burr" Clanton is a natural in his role of entertainment editor. He's been out to lunch—for 20 years. Sports editor Mike "I work at InCahoots" Gustafson really does work at
InCahoots, which explains why we don't have an advertising department, unless you count Jerry "Jericho" Yeoh. Yeoh has better hair than mine and lots of other qualifications. Gustafson's righthand man Jeff "The Fugitive" Packham avoids deadlines with the old "I had surgery; see, my arm's in a sling" routine. Packham must be sharing his pain medicine with Richard
Paul "Death is fun" Eddy, who occupies the cubby next to mine, has phone manners that rival Eddy Haskell's. He is a fine writer, and more to the point, I suspect knives come out of his boot toes. Eddy looks like a cross between Crocodile Dundee and Edward Scissorhands. Just kidding, Eddy. Then there's Jessica "Skirt Alert'n" Halliburton, whom we all envy because
"Tortellini" Tortorelli. Tortorelli switched a photo of Gumby for a wrestler in the last issue. Writer Gayleen "Has my husband called?" Langthorn is the only functional personality in this pack of hacks. Rob "Pretty Boy" Gallavan reminds me of a biscuit sandwich: you know—hot, wholesome and ready to go.
her byline looks cool. Haliburton won't be able to buy a drink for a year, but the brat has a real job at the Associated Press. Homeroom mother Judy Simpson and I cover the Geritol beat. We were dreaming of writing on a newspaper when those tots were still dreaming of writing in cursive. The others tried to give Judy a
nickname, but she sent them to their rooms. I let them call me Machine Gun Mary only out of fear. I could be edited, you know. Marcus "Mr. Chung" Kok has the morgue manager post and claims to be married to Cynthia. My, what some people won't do fot a job! Photogs Bill "Mr. Excitement" Wilkinson and Laurette "A light meter, how droll" Graham prove that the camera lies after all. Sponsoring this big happy family (the Mansons come to mind) is wannabe lawyer Mark "Hands Off' Hanebutt, who has been ignored by Vista staffers since he was still a bright young man with a future. Artists Sean "One Picture is Worth 1000 Words" Ashby and Pujan "Rage-an Puj-an" Roka sneak in the back door for about 10 minutes a week and the only positive thing we hear about our rag is "Awesome `toon in The Vista, man." Now that you know who you're up against, get out there and give us some news. The sad thing about us is that we are serious about doing a good job for you. Keep expecting us to be perfect, it is our most cherished compliment. We love both hate mail and fan mail equally because it proves we have readers. And please help us come up with a name for this column. Until then, I'm Machine Gun Mary, and you're right on target. °■■■■■■■
