North Central calls for follow-up in 1989 By Curtis Killman Editor

Dr. Bill Lillard announced Monday at a press conference that the final North Central Association report granting 10-year-accreditation had been received and that spring enrollment had topped a previous record. The president said the 10-year-accreditation, the highest an institution can be granted, was the most positive NCA report the University had received in 30 years. But while granting an initial 10-year-accreditation, the report calls for administrators to provide the NCA with an additional report by spring of 1989 addressing problems specified by the review team. "Overall, CSU is doing well," the review team said in the report, but "notwithstanding the positives, serious issues remain and must be resolved. Some of them are overdue for resolution." The report, due in spring of 1989, will be used to determine if an additional "focused visit" will be necessary or if "the time to the next comprehensive visit should be re-examined," the team said in the report. Lillard said the report that will be required in spring 1989 is not uncommon of universities experiencing rapid growth. "I'd say most accrediting reports usually require some sort of report (that follows the comprehensive review)" Lillard said. A focused visit is a personal visit by a NCA team that addresses areas of concern only. A comprehensive visit, as was last had in October of 1985, is a personal visit by a NCA team that reviews the institution in total. Lillard said administrators have the choice of accepting the NCA report or appealing it. Lillard said that decision has not been made yet, but will be addressed within 10 days. The NCA report cited several strengths and suggestions for change at CSU. Areas that the team said were some of CSU's strengths are: ■ Fiscal management. "Historically efficient fiscal management has been a strength of Central State," the NCA report said. ■ Faculty. The report said that one of the university's biggest pluses was in the area of quality adjunct faculty. Student morale. The report said that most ■ students speak positively of the university, faculty, staff, services and facilities. ■ Service to the community. "CSU's response to the needs of the region is excellent," according to the report. ■ Faculty salaries. The report noted increases in the last 10 years to faculty salaries. Some suggestions for change were made by the NCA team after strengths were noted. Lillard, in a press release said, we recognize the fact that any institution of this size always has room for improvements. ■ Compression of faculty salaries. The report said faculty salaries topped the regional university

average in a 10 state region at the lower three ranks (associate professors, assistant professors and instructors). But, the report added, "Unfortunately this is not true for the professors or administrators leading to salary compresion of lower ranks against these and leading to some dissatisfation." The faculty salary structure, the report said, is based on factors to assure equity for women and minorities. The report called salary compression a "serious problem" resulting in recruiting and retention difficulties in areas such as computer science and business. Quality of instruction and departmental stability seems to be affected the report concluded. ■ Faculty loads. The report cited progress in reducing faculty loads, but said loads remain high. Some full time faculty here teach 27 credit hours per year and 24 credit hours per year for graduate faculty. ■ Academic authority. The report said the "perception exists that the vice president (of academic affairs) has little genuine authority focused primarily on a lack of involvement in the budget building process, allocation of funds, and general control over academic budgets. "It is perceived that the vice president of academic affairs is bypassed on important budget decisions and enjoys little impact on decisions in general." Lillard said no specific suggestions were made in the NCA report concerning improving authority in the vice president of academic affair's office. But, the NCA report did recommend that "definition and establishment of the budgetary authority of academic administration" be addressed in the spring 1989 report. ■ Library facilities. The NCA report said that the W. Max Chambers Library collection is "good for undergraduate purposes, but is not good for graduate study and research purposes." ■ Planning. The NCA report said that the university needs a more centralized strategic planning process. The NCA report said the need for planning "is exasperated by present planning which seems short term and budget oriented..." The report also said enrollment growth coupled with resource decline appeared to be a factor resulting in lack of strategic planning. Lillard said administrators were moving into a strategic planning process about three years ago, but were hampered by budget cutbacks. Lack of financial support. The NCA team ■ characterized the financial support of CSU as "barely adequate." The team said that as enrollment increases additional financial support will be needed. "There is a need for additional classroom and laboratory space," the report said. The report said that considering "the general fiscal condition of the state, CSU fiscal facilities from buildings on down are okay, becoming less and less so with growth and shifts in priorities." The report concluded by saying "overall, CSU is doing well" and that significant progress has been made since the last comprehensive visit. The last comprehensive visit prior to the 1985 visit was in 1979.

Accreditation: How does it affect students? By Curtis Killman Editor

University accreditation — what does it mean to the student, faculty member or administrator? "Accreditation is, in a since, a stamp of quality on the programs that the university offers," according to Dr. James Perry, vice president of administration. "It allows a certain amount of respectability for the program that we offer." Perry said accreditation means programs offered by a university are consistent with similar programs at other universities. Without accreditation, Perry said a student would have trouble transfering credit hours accumulated to another institution. "People do not recognize degrees from unaccredited institutions," Perry said. "People (other institutions) do not readily accept transfer students from unaccredited institutions. In fact, in our state we have a policy whereby if you're coming from an unaccredited institution, you must validate your work through advanced standing on a course by course basis." Perry said in addition to having work accepted at other institutions, a student going on to graduate school would be able to transfer work to other colleges and universities. "A Stanford, a Harvard, a University of Chicago, a University of Pennsylvania — they don't need accreditation as such," Perry said, "because they have international reputations that are of the very highest quality. "However, a major regional university needs accreditation as a stamp of indication to the outside academic world that they are offering quality programs. "A regional university such as Central State, we need that stamp to show that our programs are quality and are competitive." The NCA, in addition to Oklahoma, evaluates universities in a 18 other states, Perry said. Perry said accreditation is a major factor considered by faculty members seeking employment at educational institutions.

()pinion Page Nigh's speech "1( t for Tat! entertaining, well received By Melissa Mercer If you missed Gov. Nigh's speech during Pride Week in January, you missed several good jokes and some astute opinions on current issues in Oklahoma — fewer opinions than jokes. Admittedly, no bombs were dropped. There were no riots in the LA parking lot, and apart from some partisan grumbling from a few Republicans, there were no debates raging over the political implications of Nigh's presence on campus. But it fulfilled its purpose. It was entertaining, interesting and answered a few questions that only a state governor could answer. And now that we've applauded Nigh and the Student Association for scheduling his speech, I have to applaud the students. In my years at CSU, I have always had the suspicion it would take a visit from the pope or Ozzy Osbourne to attract any interest in what was happening on campus, but I've been wrong. It's gratifying to see that students aren't brain-dead when it comes to campus programs. To quote an editorial writer for the Oklahoma Daily, now that we've shown we can be pulled away from beer and Home Box Office, maybe we can attract other speakers such as Nigh, confront more controversial issues, and who knows, we may even incite a riot or two.

New game hits campus By John Helsley There is a new game around campus. It is very simple and can be played anytime, by anyone at the Library or the University Center. The game is called "What's Your Major" and it's the hottest thing to hit the CSU campus since the beef hogie. The idea is to stalk students and try to recognize what his/her major is. The person with the most correct observations is the winner. Pretty simple — right? For those of you who are beginners, here are a few things to look for. Just like in bingo, there is a freebie in this game. The easiest major to spot the Health/PE. These people are the ones who wear sweat suits and warmups all the time. Many times they even wear sweatshirts that have HPER across the front. Now that everyone is off to a good start, we will now look for the accoun-

Commentary By John Helsley Vista sports editor ting major. Anyone who carries eight finely sharpened pencils and a calculator/recharger can have only one thing in mind. If your looking for political science majors, you're trying too hard. Be patient. These people will come to you. They will walk right up in their best suit and tie, with their perfectly manicured hair and a big smile. The way they shake your hand, you'd think

they had been stranded on a deserted island or something. Be careful not to confuse the art major with the science major; however. They both are quiet, reserved, and stare into the sky a lot. The difference is the art student is in deep concentration while the science student is examining stratus nimbus and other types of cloud formations. Another easy-to-spot major is journalism. This person is equipped with note pad or tape recorder and is constantly asking meaningless questions. They can get a big-scoop news story from the bathroom walls. There is also a category of students who have not declared a major; unless playing pool and watching "All My Children" have been added to the curriculum. These don't count so get out there and have a ball and remember; just like in bingo — only one freebie per game!

Speaker says Senate needs more input To the editor: The Student Senate is often faced with very serious resolutions such as the one that calls for Central State to sell its stocks in companies that do business in South Africa or the one that stated our position on tuition and fee increases. As senators we often have to actually seek the best means of communications with the student body. We are constantly trying to improve our means of communication. We actually seek input.

I think it is time for the students to start actually giving their in put to their representatives. Let's meet halfway. We see your letters in the Vista. We welcome you to our open meetings at 12:40 p.m. on Mondays in the University Center. We have a secretary that works everyday 1-4 p.m. that will take your messages (341-2980, extension 2249). Senators serve office hours and can usually be found in the office Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 1-4 p.m. Soon we may have posters in

each building so you will be able to identify us. The senators are the representatives of the student body, the most powerful, most important voice on campus. We were either elected or appointed by an elected president to make this a better university. The question is whether you want us to make your decisions for you or whether you want us to listen to what you have to say? We can do either, but it is up to you. Scott Birdwell Senate speaker

News: World, state and local New transistor developed A new high-performance transistor based on a new principle of operation that allows the transistor to control the flow of greater electric current than ever before has been developed, the American company that created it said in Tokyo. The new device, a creation of Energy Conversion Devices Inc., of Detroit, said that it "involves the first new fundamental transistor principle with wide device applications since the invention of...transistors in 1947." The device, called by the acronym DIFET, is viewed by the company as being particularly important because it makes transistors produced from relatively inexpensive thin-film amorphous silicon nearly as fast as those produced in the conventional manner from crystalline silicon. A major advantage of the new technology, the company says, is that it makes possible for the first time the construction of highly complex three-dimensional integrated curcuits. When made with conventional materials, such circuits are restricted to two dimensions.

State's image shaky Eight out of ten residents are proud to be identified as "Oklahomans." Yet they are much less sure of the image Oklahoma projects to persons outside the state, according to a recent poll. The poll also shows Tulsa and non-metro area residents are more positive about the state's image than are residents of the Oklahoma City area. Gov. George Nigh says that the poll reinforces his argument that Oklahoma and Oklahomans must shuck a "Grapes of Wrath" mentality in order to stimulate industrial and economic development in the state. Nigh, who has said he will retire from political office next January, when his term ends, has pressed his "positive image" theme statewide in recent months.

ABC to air Filipino debate Philippine President Ferdinand E. Marcos and Corazon Aquino, the opposition candidate in that nation's upcoming presidential election, will debate each other live Wednesday on ABC-TV program "Nightline," the network said. The one-hour debate is to be broadcast at 11:30 p.m. The appearance will mark the first time the two have debated on American television, said "Nightline" spokeswoman Laura Wessner. The elections, to be held Friday, were called late last year by Marcos, who has ruled the Philippines for 20 years. Mrs. Aquino is the widow of opposition leader Benigno Aquino, who was shot to death at Manila's airport in August 1983 upon his return from exile in United States.

Harvard disciplines protesters CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (IP) — In its summary of disciplinary action for blockading a South African diplomat last spring, Harvard's Committee on Rights and Responsibilities reports: "Fourteen students were charged with the Lowell House incident. Charges against four students were dismissed. Ten students were required to withdraw from the University for varying periods of time, with the requirement suspended. In the event of any further misconduct during the period of suspension deemed by the committee to warrant disciplinary action, the suspension will be nullified and the requirement that the student withdraw will take effect." Excerpts from the 27-page report: "Large-scale student activism had been rare on American campuses for more than a decade when, in the spring of 1985, growing numbers of students at Harvard and elsewhere became increasingly concerned about issues connected with South Africa. Many demonstrations during that spring, including a mass rally in Harvard Yard, expressed dissent on this issue in a legitimate fashion.

Going beyond protected rights "The free excerise of the rights of dissent is explicitly protected by the Faculty's Resolution on Rights and Responsibilities (RRR). Unhappily, two incidents involved actions that apparently went beyond those protected rights, and violated rights of others. In connection with the two incidents, therefore, charges of violations of the RRR were lodged against 18 students by the Dean of Students. The Committee does not itself lodge charges of misconduct. Charges of this nature were made by

"Such conflict is inevitable in any setting in which discourse involving differing opinions on issues of great importance is a signficant part of ongoing activity. It is especially so in a university community, for here reasoned discourse is the fundamental rationale for the community's existence." The Resolution states: "the University places special emphasis upon certain values which are essential to its nature as an academic community. Among these are freedom of speech, freedom from personal force and violence, and freedom of movement."

Majority favored 'passive' resistence "One prominent group of about a half-dozen very vocal protestors consistently heckled moderate speakers and seemed intent on inciting violent confrontation. A larger number of anti-apartheid protestors favored blockading the Consul through `passive' or 'non-violent civil disobedience,' and seemed willing or even eager to court arrest. A proposal to hold the Consul 'until midnight' was put to a vote. This proposal received substantial support in the show of hands, and both the police and the College officials who were present interpreted this vote decisive."

Officials report meat tampering State officials said Sunday they were investigating "fairly widespread" tampering of Hormel meat products, while the governor ordered reinforcements for National Guard troops sent to guard the company's strikebound plant in Austin, Minn. Agriculture Commissioner Jim Nichols said in an interview from St. Paul that pieces of single-edged razor blades were found in two packages of Hormel Frank-N-Stuff chili-filled hot dogs Thursday. In addition, inspectors found "fairly widespread" instances of punctured cans of Hormel Spam or chili and ripped packages of Hormel bacon and other meat produets, Nichols said.

The crux of the matter, of course, is that different rights and different responsibilities sometimes come into conflict.

Directed, produced and adapted by Steven Spielberg, "The Color Purple" is a film about real people, with real hardships and flaws. Movies of this nature are few and far between these days. There is one scene between Celie and Albert that resembles a Bugs Bunny cartoon, but the rest of the film is nearperfect. Without the use of stuffed animals or special effects, Spielberg reveals his ability to be a serious director of adult drama.

By Shannon Blockcolski

Alice Walker's touching and shockingly realistic novel, "The Color Purple," has been adapted into the best film of 1985-86. "The Color Purple" follows the life of Celie, excellently portrayed by actress/comedienne Whoopi Goldberg. She represents a post-slavery, pre-civil rights movement persecuted black woman, trapped in a male dominated environment. Violated by men since childhood, Celie's only happiness in life comes from her sister, Nettie.

Yet the most refreshing and memorable aspect of "The Color Purple" is Goldberg's Celie. She gives a gut wrenching performance that appeals to the deepest human emotions; anger, sorrow, love and triumph. For her first role in a motion picture, Goldberg's work is better than the acting done by several veteran actresses. Although a black woman has never received the Academy Award for best actress, Goldberg deserves the recognition more than Meryl Streep or Jessica Lange.

Review

Celie's only concern is surviving the rage of her husband, Albert (Danny Glover). Then Shug Avery (Margaret Avery), a sophisticated, free-spirited blues singer, comes into her life, causing Celie to question several aspects of her tormented existence.

The intense struggle for survival in a prejudice society by the characters in "The Color Purple" is offset by the sleek, almost surreal cinematography. Spielberg uses the simplistic beauty of nature to complement the simplistic beauty of Celie. Margaret Avery deserves as much praise as Goldberg for her performance as Shug, the rock in

Celie's river of anguish. Other well-known black actors and actresses shine in small roles, such as Adolph Caesar as Albert's father and Rae Dawn Chong as Squeek. Nominated for five Golden Globe awards, "The Color Purple" is a film that can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of sex, race, age, creed or religious belief. The story of how a young black woman strives to make her life better, and the people who help or hurt her in the process, is definitely worth more than $5.

Ralph, Norman and Peggy Spense, Warr Acres, attended the festival Jan. 17-20 at the University of Houston. "Meetings such as this are the only way to get reassurance that what we are doing with our students is correct," said Ralph. "By attending the master classes, we can see a master using the same techniques we use with our students." Artists who gave concerts and conducted master classes were Abbey Simon, John Browning and Oxana Yablonskaya, all internationally known performers.

Grapplers troubles continue in losses

By John Helsley Sports editor The Broncho wrestlers continued their mid-season struggles Friday and Saturday by going 1-2 in dual action. The grapplers defeated New Mexico Highlands 44-14 Friday night, but lost to Fresno State 30-12 and Nebraska 41-6 in a pair of Saturday afternoon matches. In the Broncho victory over Highlands, the matmen benefited from five forfeits, a technical fall by Billy Reid at 126 pounds and a fall from Stoney Wright at 150 pounds. Against Fresno St., the Bronchos could only muster three wins. At 134 pounds, David Aduddell hit for a quick

takedown and registered a fall in only 25 seconds in his match with Alonzo Harrison. Wright was a winner at 150 pounds, as was Larry Wooten at heavyweight. Things got worse in the dual with the Cornhuskers. CSU's only victories came from Reid and 167 pounder Howard Seay. "It's disappointing to have performances like these," said coach David James. "We've been flat and tired and we are making some mistakes that a team shouldn't make this late in the season." "Nebraska and Fresno State have good programs, but we sure made them look even better than they are," he said. "Earlier this season, we wrestled Nebraska in Lincoln, and we wrestled them

B-ballers split games at Panhandle By John Helsley Despite being without head coach Buddy Armstrong for the entire second half, CSU was able to squeeze out a 72-68 victory over Panhandle State University. Armstrong was ejected just before halftime, when he was charged with his third technical foul. "Most of the time I stand up for the officials," Armstrong said. "They usually do a good job under often difficult circumstances. There are rare occasions when the officials let the game get out of control and I felt this was one of those occasions. "I challenged an official on what I thought was a flagrant foul and got two technicals in about two seconds," he said. "I thought the third technical was unjustified." "That was the first time in my coaching career that I have been ejected," Armstrong said. "I received more technicals Saturday than I had previously in my four year career at CSU (two)." "I regret that I was ejected, but I felt the officials needed to be confronted." The Bronchos were able to turn around a 40-36 halftime deficit with 64.5 percent field goal shooting for the game. The hoopsters also shot a season high 83.3 percent from the free throw line. "I'm proud of the way the team was able to regroup and play well in the second half," said Armstrong. The Bronchos got their usual solid game from Mark Martinovich who led the team in scoring with 23 points. Paul Collier hit on 9 of his 10 shots from the field to chip in 20 points. Phil Giachino hauled in 15 rebounds and added 11 points. CSU started two freshmen in the game, Scott Streller and Bowie Gibson. Streller held Panhandle's top scorer, John Edwards, to only 6 field goals on 20 attempts. In the ladies game, Panhandle jumped out to a 15 point halftime lead and never looked back as they rolled over the Lady Bronchos 72-39. No CSU player scored in double figures and as a team, the Lady Bronchos shot only 37.2 percent.

The Bronchos defeated New Mexico Highlands 44-14 Friday night here on campus. tougher, closer, and with more intensity. We even had more injuries at that time." "We've been working hard in practice and we have some guys banged up," James said, "but we have got to go with what we've got."

The Bronchos are hoping to receive help from injured starters returning soon. Rodney O'Shields and Kevin Freeman could be back Saturday to take over at 118 and 142 pounds; respectively. Joe Starzenski, out since the first semester with a knee injury,

ROTC prof comments on past, future cadets

Campus groups to sponsor organ donation campaign By Kim Voynar The Student Senate will cosponsor the CSU chapter of the Mortar Board in the Organ Donor Awareness Project, a campaign to promote awareness about organ donation. Mortar Board will begin its campaign Feb. 17. The week-long campaign will include films and speakers emphasizing the importance of the need for organ donors. Mortar Board is a national

senior honor society. The society is launching a national campaign to provide information concerning organ transplantation. The Student Association donated $200 to the campaign, which will be used to fund advertising and promotional expenses. Members of the student body, faculty and administration are encouraged by the Student Association to become organ donors and "pass life on!"

New Student Senate VP airs opinions on meal plans, parking, prof evaluation By Donette Widdoes Jeff Shilling, a freshman, ran unopposed for vice president of the Student Senate. The vice presidency was left vacant when former vice president Mark Kinzie succeeded John Buttry as president. Shilling plans to devote his energies to solving problems dealing with the resident students' meal plans, commuter parking and professor evaluation forms filled out by students at the end of each semester. "I strive for those things that will improve the university," said Shilling. "I think it is very impor-

tant that the vice president be able to work with the president." said Shilling. Shilling said he has the ability to work well with other people. "One of my concerns last semester, which still is a concern, is the meal plans," Shilling said. "Why does this university offer only two different meal plans when some universities offer five?" Shilling said he can't understand why a student holding a 15 count meal ticket is not allowed to transfer his or her meals to the weekend. He went on to say that students at other universities are allowed to transfer their meals.

Another thing that Shilling has

been looking into is the parking situation. The resident students already have their parking spaces, said Shilling. "In fact, they overflow into C-3 commuter lots. What happens if a commuter comes in and C-3 is taken?" "There is no compensation for overflow," said Shilling. Another situation Shilling would like to change is the student-feedback-professorevaluation forms. "Are the evaluation forms students fill out at the end of the semester complete enough? The questions on the form don't correlate with the answers. Let's change that." Shilling said.

By Italia Carson "I'm really sold on the ROTC program, I raised my hand to be here and I would not be associated with a product that wasn't a winner," said Lt. Col. Terry L. May, new professor of military science. Although he has only been on the CSU campus a few months, May said he is "favorably impressed with the quality of instructors and cadets involved with the program." "The manner in which I've been welcomed and received and the conversations I have had with the faculty members I've met indicated that they were proud of the ROTC department at CSU," he said. "It is just a delightful environment to walk into." A native of Arkansas, May completed ROTC as a Distinguished Military Graduate from Central Michigan University, and was commissioned into the Military Intelligence branch of the U.S. Army in 1967. Following the completion of graduate work in geography at the same school under the now Army ROTC Fellowship Program, he expanded his military education by attending the Engineer Officer Basic Course, Airborne School, Military Intelligence Officer Advanced Course and Command and General Staff College. "Back when I was a cadet, ROTC was mandatory for the first two years," he said. "I was one of 550 in my freshman class to be in uniform, and conspicuously absent among any of those were women." "Thankfully, in the intervening years, our society and the Army have been able to recognize the truly significant contributions that women can make to the military profession, and now we are able to offer ROTC to women." he said.

May said he received some valuable training earlier in his career during, "probably one of the most interesting times that anybody could have been an assistant military science professor." "I was the assistant professor of military science at UCLA from 1971 to 1974, during the height of the Vietnam anti-war sentiment in our nation," he said. "We were indeed in a hostile environment," he continued. May commented that the cadets could not wear their uniforms to and from class without encountering conflicts. Since then, he said he is thankful for the changes which have occurred. "Everybody on campus seems to be glad that we're here and so are we," he said. "Contrasting my previous experience at UCLA, this is really remarkable. I'm sure that many ROTC detachments don't enjoy th, positive relationship that we have here, and I want to continue that." Taking another look back on his past career, May said he was a "firm believer in what ROTC can offer to any young man and woman, regardless of their career intentions." The things I learned as a cadet have still stayed with me," he said. "That's exactly what I hope our present cadets can look back on years from now and remember about their experience here." "Even if it is only to go on active duty for six months and get trained in a branch and come back home to the Reserves," he continued, "whatever experience a person gets as a junior officer in the army is going to benefit them in life's calling. It is the kind of thing that you can only tell people how good it is. They have to try it to like it."
