WORLO Memory loss, not Super Bowl loss for Troy Aikman BURBANK, Calif. (AP) — Fans of the Dallas Cowboys will always remember how their team won its second consecutive shot at the Super Bowl. Not so the quarterback. Troy Aikman suffered a slight concussion in the National Football Conference title victory over San Francisco. "I don't remember playing in the game at all," he said Tuesday On "The Tonight Show." Aikman joked about not remembering people or telephone numbers either after the Jan. 23 game. He also admitted that for a while he thought the Super Bowl would be played in Henryetta, Okla., where he graduated high school.

Suggestions submitted to state regents after faculty self-study By Roy Howe Staff Writer

Higher education faculty salaries represent one of the state's largest cost, second only to kindergarten through high school teachers and Medicaid according to a report by the Faculty Advisory Committee to the State Regents.

Armed with these facts, the advisory committee forwarded 10 recommendations to the State Regents for Higher Education. The suggestions ask for regent involvement with faculty work loads, funding to enhance effective teaching and research and that the regents help educators with public perception by "engage(ing) in an active effort to educate the populace of Oklahoma about the appropriate role of faculty."

Also, the advisory committee asked the State Regents to help examine the use of adjunct faculty. The committee said that part-time faculty "...may be approaching the point of `over-leveraging' the permanent full-time faculty with the use of part-time adjuncts." Through a written response, overall, the regents concurred with the concerns of the advisory committee. The committee is comprised of OklaVSee STUDY, Page 7

Taco Bell worker kills co-workers, claims innocence CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A soldier who worked parttime at a Taco Bell apparently hid in the restaurant until closing time, then shot four coworkers to death and emptied the safe and cash drawers, authorities say. Courtney B. Matthews, 19, was arrested and charged with murder Wednesday as funerals began for the victims. "I'm innocent. I'm innocent. I didn't do a damn thing," he said as he was led into the police station. Prosecutor John Carney said he will seek the death penalty.

Children are easy victims of neglect Pick up any paper or tune in the news and there is always a story concerning the abuse of children. Children all over the world are becoming more andmore the victims of neglect, war, hunger and violence as the crime increases. Last Tuesday, officers in Chicago walked into a building expecting to bust a crack house. What they found was worse than they expected. Sitting on cold floors and stained mattresses or buried under blankets and dirty clothes were 19 children. Two were on the floor sharing a neck bone with a dog. The oldest child was 14 while the youngest was one. Although no drugs were found on the premesis, the adults (one of which was found sleeping alone in a king size bed) are charged with neglect in one of the largest child neglect cases in history. Though scared and hungry, the children were treatedand released into the state's custody. One boy, however, remained in the hospital with what appeared to be cuts, bruises and cigarette burns all up and down his body. The parents were all fast asleep as they sat in the police station handcuffed. Not only did the children have to put up with the neglect, but they shared the floor with roaches and rat droppings. Yet neighbors were quoted as saying that the adults loved their kids and never mistreated them. What a scary thought it is that there are more cases out there that haven't been discovered yet. Nationally, 2.5 million cases of child neglect are reportecd every year and the problem is made worse by the fact that child welfare agencies are swamped and struggling. So, ultimately, the children suffer. More tax money should be spent on these child agencies. It is worth the money. And the parents who can't take care of their children shouldn't have children at all. Sadly, neglect is a worldwide problem. The skirmishes in Bosnia or Somalia, between the Catholics and Protestants in Ireland and political upheaval in other countries seem to hit the kids the hardest. Watch TV and commericals soliciting help and donations for third-world countries come on every hour. There are children worldwide who suffer violence and neglect. It must be true that the weakest are the ones who suffer the most. As long as people turn their heads or scoff at giving donations, the abuse will continue.

Prof keeps cool in tense situation On Jan. 31 at 8:15, Suzy Feree was teaching class on the second floor of Old North. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a tall, dirty man entered the classroom. He informed the instructor that he wanted to stay. He also told her that he was mean and dangerous and that he wanted to have some words with the class. "Stay in school," he said. "Don't make a mess of your life like I have mine." In spite of these strong words, the petite Ms. Feree managed to

get the man out of the classroom. She spoke firmly, but she was also very calm. It was her calm demeanor that influenced the stranger's behavior. After he was gone, she immediately sent two students to call the campus police. Ms. Feree handled herself like a pro. Those of us that were in the room know that this situation could have easily escalated into a real crisis. I can only hope if I ever get into a similar situation that I can be as calm ad quick to think as

this teacher was. Thank you Suzy. Now, I'd like to address this question: How did this incident happen in the first place? It happened simply because a man walked in through open doors. It can happen again if drastic measures are not taken by those in charge. Next time there may not be a happy ending. —

Student loses cool over book prices This semester, like any other semester, I went broke after I paid my tuition and bought the books. I do not want to repeat the story of how the books are overpriced and how less you get when you go back to see them at the end of the semester. This is a monopoly, and they can do whatever they want to do.

A successful way to break the monopoly is to invite competition. Look what MCI and Sprint have done to AT&T. A book exchange program has always been a dream which never has been implemented. It's time to install a book "Friends and Family" type of exchange pro-

Guest speaks on sexual assault Jeff Billington

Student Writer

The University of Central Oklahoma invited a speaker for discussion on sexual assault prevention at UCO's Student Home Economics Association meeting on Feb. 1. Sandra Stensaas, the Oklahoma county assistant district attorney and head of the sexual assault unit, spoke on sexual assault involving women and

children during the meeting. " Most of our cases involve children, but we do try sexual assault cases as well,"Stensaas said. More than 300 cases are handled by the sexual assault unit alone. Rape, rape by instrumentation, sodomy, indecent liberties (which is touching without consent) and sexual battery are most of the offenses prosecuted by the unit. "Sexual battery means any touching of a woman's body to get some sort of sexual gratifi-

cation," said Sternsaas. "Rape now includes spouses, and you can be charged for rape of your spouse," Stensaas said. Most rapes are not accomplished by someone grabbing or beating the victim, she said, but by someone that is an acquaintance of the person that was raped. "Most rapes involve someone you know," Stensaas said. The vast majority of cases prosecuted are acquaintance rapes. Rapes by strangers are much more difficult to prosecute because the jury looks at the victim as a person who deserved the assault. "Ninety-nine percent of rape victims are never brutalized beyond the fact that they are sexually assaulted," she said. Most women will call their best friend in lieu of the police because of wanting to hear a familiar voice, Stensaas says. " I'm a firm believer that women should report a rape, but I also think it is up to the person involved." Stensaas says that women should act confident and that they know what they are doing when they are alone. Rapists look for a person that won't give them any trouble. "Look around you, make yourself aware of your surroundings. Always have a plan," she said. Always have keys in hand to use as a weapon if needed. According to Stensaas, mace, pepper gas and stun guns take too long, and they don't always work. "Make as much noise as possible because criminals don't want anyone to notice,"she said. Stensaas suggests resisting as much as possible. " A woman who resists is less likely to be assaulted than one who doesn't."

UCO student mixes finance, comedy in life By Dayna Poarch Staff Writer

Finance and comedy may seem like an unlikely combination, but it works for David Cusumano. Cusumano, a senior at the University of Central Oklahoma, enrolled as a full-time student in the spring of 1993, but ,prior to that, he studied for CLEP tests while traveling across the country performing in comedy clubs. "At that time I was still working as a full-time comedian," Cusumano said. "So what I was doing then was I would prepare for one of these CLEP exams... take it on the road with me and do my comedy show, and then I'd come back and take that test." He was able to test out of 24 credit hours in courses like Fundamentals of Management, Money and Banking, Principles of Marketing, Principles of Macroeconomics and Principles of Microeconomics. Also, during the 1992-1993 school year, he completed 55 hours with a 4.0 grade point average. Cusumano's comedy act is partially responsible for his scholas-

tic success, he said. Over the years, Cusumano developed a memory routine. During his show, he would meet approximately 20 to 50 people from the audience and then end his show by thanking those people, he said. "I would just rattle off all the names, and I started being called the memory guy," he said. He used visualization and association to remember the names. He has also developed a show to teach others how to acquire this skill, he said. "I actually am selling to the college market a show where I come in and, in a funny way, present how to learn names and faces and how to help with your studies," he said. Cusumano also set objectives for himself, and a college degree was an important goal, he said. "I'm very goal oriented and very persistent," he said. Cusumano attended Western Michigan in Kalamazoo before becoming a full-time comedian, but all of his hours didn't transfer to UCO. He needed at least 80 hours to graduate, but he wanted to finish in two years, he said. "I kind of set a deadline," he

Dave Cusumano

said. "I'd like to finish by May of `94. It was a challenge when they said they didn't think I was going to pull it off."

In May, Cusumano will receive a bachelor's of business administration in finance and has been accepted into the master's pro-

OFFICERS' TR AINING

gram at the University of Southern Florida in Tampa, he said. Cusumano is working part time at H&R Block and plans to open his own tax preparation firm. "If I got one comment throughout my whole entire career (comedy) it was...' you seem so serious. I can't believe that you're a comedian. You look like an accountant or something, â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he said. Actually, when Cusumano was in high school he wanted to be a comedian, but it wasn't the "popular thing to do," he said. While he was attending Western Michigan, he still wanted to be a comedian, so he moved to Florida and began performing on amateur nights at clubs, he said. He spent a year working for free before going on the road for eight years with his comedy act which was straight stand up. "My style would be just like a Jerry Seinfeld or a Jay Leno where it's just you, the microphone and the audience," he said. Cusumano only performs locally and during breaks while he is going to school. During December he did some shows for corporations and year-end parties. He also headlined at the Comedy Corner in Bricktown, he said.

Woman senator announces plan to run for governor of Oklahoma OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Sen. Bernice Shedrick said Friday she is running for governor. The Stillwater Democrat, who is chairman of the Senate Education Committee, said education and crime will be big issues in her campaign. Ms. Shedrick had said earlier that she wanted to run for governor, but would not run against Senate President Pro Tern Robert Cullison. Cullison, D-Skiatook, announced Thursday that he is seeking another term in the Senate. Ms. Shedrick said she waited for Cullison's decision because of his popularity in the Tulsa area. She said she didn't believe she could win against that. Ms. Shedrick estimated it will cost S2 million to run her campaign. But she said she is confident Oklahoma will have a woman governor in 1995.

Sen. David Boren plans to stay in Washington, not move to OU TULSA, Okla, (AP) — Sen. David Boren says he plans to stay in Washington, but people continue to ask him to consider becoming president at the University of Oklahoma. Boren, D-Okla., also confirmed Wednesday that he was contacted last week by a trade association in Washington about a financial services job with a salary of at least S600,000 plus benefits. Boren said he rejected the offer. "It didn't even take me one minute to say no," Boren said. The Tulsa World's Washington bureau cited sources who asked not to be identified in saying Boren has not completely rejected the university presidency. It said several regents and members of the search committee are pressuring Boren to consider the post. Boren said he plans to remain in the Senate, where he has two years left in his term. "My current plans are to remain in Washington, serving the people of Oklahoma in the Senate as long as they want one to do so," he said. Boren has been active in education. He is a Yale graduate and a member of that university's board of trustees, and he served on the school's presidential search committee. Ile graduated the University of Oklahoma School of Law in 1968, and has worked as a college professor.

Valentine's dinner to be held By Michelle Peller Staff Writer Fine dining and musical entertainment can be found at the annual banquet dinner hosted by the University CenterFood Service at 6 p.m. Feb. 14 in the University Center Red Bud Restaurant. "It's our traditional Valentine's Day banquet dinner, said Debbie Jackson, assistant food service director. Tickets cost $25.50 per couple, but those who want to come alone can do so. Any one is welcome to dine, Jackson said.

Jackson said dinner will be served from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. "It's been quite a success. We sell out every year," Jackson said. The Red B ud holds 175 people, therefore "the earlier you get in, the better," she said. In the previous years, it has been suggested that the dinner be held in the Ballroom so more people may attend, but the people that have attended in the past like the intimacy of the Red Bud, said Jackson. "We make it extra elegant in Red Bud," she said. Jackson said the dress code is semi-formal and those who are

planning on attending are asked to make a reservation. The entertainment this year will be a pianist, she added. The menu will include: garden salad, prime rib, baked potato or wild rice, broccoli spears with cheese sauce, demi loaves, coffee/ tea and cheesecake with strawberries. Tickets are available at The Corner and The Red Bud. Jackson said the last day to purchase tickets is Friday but there is a possibility they may be sold out before then.

caompanion of the profit. "He would like to dispel these myths and clear up any misunderstanding about the Muslim Nation." The meeting is sponsored by the Muslim Students Association, an affiliate of the Islamic Society of Edmond. The association was originated at University of Central Oklahoma the beginning of the 1993 school year to provide an opportunity for Muslim students to get acquainted and share

interests. "Members consist of people from every corner of the world", Abdul-Qahaar said. "Our meetings are held every Saturday and are not restricted to Muslims."

California's Okie Girl Restaurant closes due to earthquake damage TULSA, Okla. (AP) — The owner of the roadside Okie Girl Restaurant says she's closing the facility because traffic along nearby highways has been hampered by earthquake damage. "We simply can't afford to stay open," owner Mary Lynn Chess told the Tulsa World. "It's a no-win situation." The restaurant, subject of a fight with the state of California over the word "Okie," opened in 1990 along the Golden State Freeway, about 70 miles north of Los Angeles. The owner said about 80 percent of her customers are highway travelers. Two bridges along the freeway were wiped out by the earthquake. A detour around the damage was completed this week but traffic flow is expected to be interrupted for more than six months. "We just can't go on," said Ms. Chess. Gov. David Walters wrote to Ms. Chess urging her to relocate her business to Oklahoma. The restaurant gained media attention — especially in Oklahoma — after California transportation officials refused to allow her to advertise on state-controlled signs along the freeway. They argued the word "Okie" was offensive to Oklahomans. Walters and many native Oklahomans living in California wrote to the officials complaining of their decision. Walters said Oklahomans now proudly proclaim themselves "Okies." The state eventually lost in court and was ordered to pay $32,000 in punitive damages. Ms. Chess said she was unprepared for the drastic reduction in business after the earthquake, and gave notice to her 13 employees two weeks ago.

homa public and independent college and university faculty who are chosen by their peers to present instructors' views and concerns to the State Regents. Bart Binning, University of Central Oklahoma instructor of decision sciences, served on the 10 member committee to the regents for a year and a half and helped with a recent study to determine faculty productivity and salaries. There are currently 4,116 faculty members at the state's 25 higher learning cites, the report states, with 36 percent at the two comprehensive universities. Forty percent teach at the 10 regional universities and 24 percent at the two-year colleges. Faculty Salaries The average Oklahoma faculty salary for all ranks and at all institutions was $38,556 for fiscal-year 1992-93 ranging from $12,768 to $103,000 according to the committee's report. The University of Central Oklahoma currently ranks fourth highest in the state for faculty salaries behind the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University and Langston University. Salaries for full-time professors at UCO average $50,000, associate professors' salaries average more than $44,000 and assistant professors at the university average more than $30,600 per year. Faculty Ranks Statewide, figures show the majority of the teaching positions hold the title of instructor. Twenty-four percent of the faculty at Oklahoma public colleges and universities are classified as full professors, 17 percent are associate professors, 24 percent are classified as assistant professors and 35 percent of the faculty carry the title of instructor, the faculty committee's study shows. These figures do not represent the part-time faculty who work

for lower pay and no benefits. Faculty Workloads Faculty workloads were also examined in the advisory committee's study where an average faculty work week totaled 53 hours with 56 percent of that time used for instructional activities. The committee cited instructional activities as time used with students in the classroom, preparing for classes, grading papers and testing. The remainder of the faculty time is spent on administrative duties and research, the report states. According to the committee, teaching loads ranged from 6.4 hours pee instructor at the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University to 15.2 hours at community colleges. "This is consistent with themissions of different types of institutions," the committee report states. "Instruction is the dominant faculty assignment at the two-year colleges and likewise carries more weight at the four-year institutions than at the research institutions."

Hard travelin' for Lady Bronchs By Scott Moore Sports Writer The sign "welcome to the city of Edmond" probably holds a warm spot in the hearts of those on the Central Oklahoma Women's basketball team. Indeed home is a sweet place, especially when you've won just three of 12 road contests this season. And now, thanks to Texas A&M-Kinsville's 65-54 victory Jan. 29 and East Texas State's 6564 triumph Jan. 31, the Lady Bronchos are the not-so-proud owners of a four-game losing streak. The reasons? "We're making way too many mistakes and we're not shooting the ball very well," said Head Coach John Keely. "We're going to start taking higher percentage

shots and certainly try and control turnovers." Poor shooting has played a major part in the slump. UCO(7-11) has shot just 35 percent and have averaged only 58.5 points per game during the streak(season average is 67.7). UCO also, averaged 23.3 turnovers in their last four losses. "We've played some awfully good teams in the conference," said Keely. "I think Angelo State (a 96-72 loss Jan. 22) and Abilene Christian(an 88-46 loss Jan. 24) are the two best teams we've played. The scores were closer against East Texas State and Texas A&M(Kingsville), but turnovers really hurt us." One bright spot is the play of senior forward Tammy Cummings who, as of Feb. 4, leads the team in scoring, averaging 20.5 points per game and is shooting 47 percent

from the field. "She's played fantastic," said Keely. "She has a lot of confidence and has really helped this team in every way she can." Cummings also leads the team in rebounds with 7.7 per game. She has 336 rebounds for her UCO career and is currently 10th on UCO's rebounding chart (as of Feb. 4). She needs 30 more to move to ninth. Keely said Cummings has helped fill the hole left by Shauna Tubbs, the All-America candidate and team leader who was dismissed from the team after not returning to practice after the Christmas break. "Tammy has really taken over the inside leadership role," said Keely. "But she's very unselfish so this is still very much a team effort."

Gridiron standouts commit to UCO Stan Wagnon Student Writer Five Oklahoma All-Staters and two of the state's top 50 recruits headline the list of 12 high school standouts who signed with the University of Central Oklahoma football team on Wednesday, the first day of the national letter of intent period. Oklahoma Coaches Association All-Staters signing with the Bronchos were: Edmond Memorial's Hodrick Steele, Brad Dunlap from Tulsa Memorial, McAlester's Lynn Jones, Brandon Martin of Ringling, and Duncan's Brian Morton. Steele rushed for over 1,500 yards and scored 16 touchdowns in leading the B ulldogs to the Class 6A state finals, while Jones was a two-way star for McAlester in guiding the Buffaloes to an undefeated regular season. Jones was also listed as one of the state's top 50 recruits by the Daily Oklahoman as was

pounder, starred on both sides of the ball while leading the Demons to a 12-2 record and Class 5A state runner-up finish. Other state recruits signing with UCO were Yukon's Brian Morrison, a 6-4, 280-pound offensive lineman; Putnam City's Bill Cook, a 6-2, 250-pound defensive lineman; and Tulsa Memorial's Daniel Mooney, a 63, 230-pound defensive lineman. The Bronchos also picked up three out-of-state recruits in 6-1, 170-pound defensive back Hurley

Tarver of Fort Worth, Texas (Western Hills), 6-3, 170-pound defensive back Teon Carter of Glen-Burie, Md., and Carl Myles, a 5-11, 180-pound running back from Hirshi High School in Wichita Falls, Texas. UCO is coming off back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 1984-85. The Bronchos were 6-4 in 1992 and 7-3 in 1993. The Bronchos open their '94 campaign Sept. 3 at Wantland stadium against the Mesa State Mavericks.

Medieval Society forms at UCO •

By Terri King Staff Writer "We are now on our way as a potential student organization," said Dr. Stephen Law addressing the first meeting of the newly formed UCO Medieval Society on Feb. 1 in the University of Central Oklahoma Liberal Arts Building. The gathering of 18 students and faculty discussed the requisites of incorporation and other requirements for becoming an officially recognized organization on the UCO campus. "We're not yet an official student organization, but we hope to

be officially recognized by the beginning of March," Law said, discussing the procedure to become recognized on the UCO campus. Cake, tea and coffee were served during the informal meeting which included a slide show and presentation by Law on the history, making and drinking of Mead, a honey wine popular in the Middle Ages and hailed in Medieval literature as the "Drink of Gods and Heroes." Members the UCO Medieval Society plan to attend a conference of the Mid-America Association to be held on the University of Oklahoma campus in Norman Feb. 26.

Club members are considering taking a trip to the Heavener Runestone in Southeast Oklahoma later in the year. The Heavener Runestone is a site believed to have been a Viking settlement. The UCO Medieval Society is a student organization which seeks to understand the culture and society of the Middle Ages. The Societies monthly meetings will include discussions and presentations by Society members, UCO faculty and guest speakers from off campus. For more information, contact Medieval Society sponsors Law at Ext. 5615 or Dr. Margaret Flansburg at Ext. 5630.

in most public debates Terri's around these days like some sort of incanto tation. The 2 cents Terri King is a staff writer for the Vista.

Kids shouldn't be excuses I don't have any excuses. Most people really love their excuses and mean well by them. Excuses often come in handy because they can be trained to take out the trash, put away the dishes and mow the lawn. Often a really good excuse can be taught to keep its room picked up. But what having two or three excuses around the house really comes in handy for is allowing people to never have to really think most issues through very well or come up with a good, strong line of logic for why they think or believe a certain way. I know this because every time one of those really hot button issues like pornography, music lyrics or what shows up on television comes up, along with all the other evidence presented and points made, the question is always asked, "What about the children?" Well, what about them? The word "children" is thrown

logic seems be that if a thing may in some way hurt "children," then it must be bad or wrong or harmful to everyone. In no other area of public life are children elevated to such an exalted state as when excuses are being made on their behalf. You would think that the people who had all this time to bitch about what's on television and organize massive letter writing campaigns for the sake of the "children" would take the time to monitor what their children are watching. And, while they're at it, keep up with what their kids are doing in school, keep track of where they are after school and who their kids are associating with. Throw in a few good lessons about treating others with kindness and respect and don' t forget to tell them something about right and wrong and show them you mean it. Some of this might sound kind of obvious, but the fact that juvenile crime and teenage pregnancy rates are as high as they are today and that young people are in crisis says that some of these things are not being done. That is not to say that there are not things in this world that need our attention, and in some cases our concern and protest. But children are not there to provide us with cover for weak arguments, or to give us an excuse to meddle in other people's business.

Dancer featured Feb. 4 for Black History Month

February 8, 1994

Black History Month activities set By Jimmy Hyde

By Dayna Poarch Staff Writer

Staff Writer

The University of Central Oklahoma celebrated Black History Month Friday by hosting Myles Thoroughgood, a dancer who has appeared on the Disney Channel's

"Presidential Inaugural Celebrationfor Youth " and has worked on the "Mickey Mouse Club" for four seasons. "I feel like I have something to offer," Thoroughgood told students in the History and Philosophy of Dance class. Thoroughgood, guest lecturer for the class, discussed various types of dancing, including jazz, which is the area he has studied and has the most experience. Jazz has no established dance technique, but its roots are in the principles of classic ballet. The central characteristic of jazz dancing is looseness, he said. Thoroughgood also discussed auditioning, which gives people the opportunity to "find out who people are," he said. "Auditioning equals opportunity," Thoroughgood added. He said there are four important characteristics for auditioning: commitment, concentration, energy and relaxation. A dancer's resume is also important, he said. Thoroughgood also talked about

Myles Thoroughgood dancing for the camera. On the "Mickey Mouse Club," they use four cameras and film three dance numbers and one video each week, he said. He showed dance scenes from musicals such as "Singin' In the Rain," "West Side Story" and "Cabaret" to show the different ways dance scenes can be filmed. Thoroughgood also taught a jazz dance master class Friday afternoon and Saturday. Thoroughgood has also appeared on shows such as "Doogie Howser," "21 Jump Street" and

"The Kathy Lee Show."

Throughout February the University of Central Oklahoma B lack Student Association and the Multicultural Student Services will sponsor activities on campus to celebrate Black History Month. "Black History Month was created to raise the overall awareness of black contributions to this country," said Barry Lofton, coordinator of Multicultural Student Services. February 10, alive concert will be presented at the Grand Ballroom in the University Center. The show will feature local talent Allure and Soul Protectors. February 15, Corporation Commissioner J.C. Watts will give the Black History Month keynote speech, which will also be held in the Grand Ballroom. February 23, a multicultural career fair will be held at the Grand Ballroom. The fair will represent approximately 40 businesses from Tulsa, Dallas and Oklahoma City. March 2, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Gwendolyn Brooks will have a poetry reading at Pegasus Theater. Brooks is the first black to win a Pulitzer.

Black- History Month has been celebrated nationally since 1976 and February was chosen because it contains the birthdays of Frederick Douglas and Abraham Lincoln. "Black History Month is forrecognizing and acknowledging a group of people. It is open to all,
