SELF DEFENSE

he next time you find yourself walking alone at night, be sure you have your ink pen handy. It could save your life. Alpha Tau Omega (ATO) sponsored a self—defense class for the Sigma Kappas Wednesday, the first of three for UCO sororities. Chuck Lucas, from Defender Training Consultants, Inc., taught the women how to mentally prepare themselves and physically defend themselves against a potential attacker.

Class prepares UCO women to prevent, defend against attacks
The number one weapon in America is the ball point pen, said Lucas. They are available everywhere and are allowed everywhere, unlike guns or pepper spray, he said. Lucas said you can always dial 911 if you have a cellular phone, even if you have disconnected your service. The phone company will always accept those calls. Defender's main survival theory is that RAPE stands for Responsive Actions Prevent Encounters, and that if
you use your mind and your body, you
can beat your attacker at his own game. This self defense class was in part prompted by a Vista article last semester. The article dealt with date rape, including a rape at a fraternity at Brown University. It also included a statement from the April 1996 issue of Gender & Society, stating that fraternities on college campuses contribute to the collegiate rape culture. UCO fraternities were upset by the implications in the article and wanted to
Sigma Kappa members learn defensive tactics from Chuck Lucas of Defender Training Academy on Wednesday.

There will be another self—defense class held for Alpha Gamma Delta Feb. 19, and the third class will meet sometime after spring break, he said. Defender offers Cardio Karate Aerobic Self Defense, and Ju—Jitsu classes. For more information, call 330-6643. —By Patrice Patterson Staff Writer

ride of ownership, that's what President George Nigh hopes to instill in students, faculty and staff members with "Hands Across Campus" clean-up day starting at 11 a.m. Saturday. Everyone is encouraged to make a clean sweep of the university, picking up trash and tying ribbons on branches or poles that need to be removed. (The ribboned items will later be removed by Facilities Management employees.) If enough people pitch in and help pick up, the university could sparkle. And once all the trash is gone, maybe it'll be easier to keep it clean. When the sidewalk is bare, it's harder to be the first to throw a cigarette butt down. But if 100 others are already there, you may not even think about it. Everyone connected with UCO can have a sense of pride and community knowing they've helped make the campus a nicer place. Participants will be served free lunch in the food court after the cleanup. To sign up for the clean sweep call Tara Hodges in the President's office at 341-2980, Ext. 2311. This is an important project that could make a real difference in how the campus looks. Everyone should participate. Just don't think about how all that trash you pick up will join the mountains of paper no longer being recycled. On

fter hearing about the termination of the recycling program at UCO, I contacted the Physical Plant. I talked to Jane Byram, who gladly explained to me the circumstances leading to this. Here are the facts: It took two people 30 hours weekly, combined, to follow through this program. Physical Plant had one person to pick up all the material and deliver them to a center, The Meadows, not very far from the campus. The Meadows employed handicapped people who sorted, shredded and bailed these products and sold them. This provided some money for the center. UCO donated all the paper, so there was no profit to the school. As our school expanded so did the duties of the limited no. of physical plant employees. Budget cuts prevented the Plant from hiring any new employees and the current employees were spread thin. Something had to be
sacrificed, and it happened to be the recycling program. After getting theses facts, I came up with some solutions. UCO has numerous clubs and organizations on its funding, whether it be through student activities or any other medium. So why not organize some sort of program to require these clubs to volunteer a couple of hours a week for picking up the papers around the campus. Or the clubs representing each department could also do this. UCO already charges for technical fees from students. I don't see why recycling is not a part of this. I think UCO could look into the possibility of charging students a dollar every semester for recycling. At current enrollment rate this would be enough to hire a full time employee just for recycling. UCO could also ask local businesses, like Thompsons bookstore and all others around campus to sponsor recycling programs. These businesses could profit from free publicity and we all like to buy from
environmentally conscious businesses. I do not know what the proper route is to implement this, or who should take responsibility. My guess would be that the SGA or student activities could start something and the administration could help implement it. We could always ask Physical Plant for advise, after all they do have a lot of experience in this matter. The best solution is for everyone to work together and do something to get the recycling program started again. After all aren't we in college to find solutions and not run from problems. If anyone is doing something about this, please e-mail me at sd1228@broncho.ucok.edu , I would like to help in any way that I can. Lastly, I would like to thank Jane Byram at the Physical Plant for implementing this program for this long even with all the financial problems. Now it is up to us to carry it further. —Soham Dhakal

Parking problems present student dilemma
T
his letter serves to inform you of a growing problem regarding the limited parking spaces available at the university. I have a 7:40 a.m. class and it seems no matter how early I arrive, finding a place to park anywhere is virtually impossible. Therefore, I choose to park in a restricted
parking space and pay a fine for doing so. I feel it is ridiculous, in order for me to not pay fines, that I must park blocks away from my classes in church parking lots or streets when there is plenty of land and room for student parking at UCO to be made. I appreciate the expansion of the
library and University center but an close to $100 in fines every semester due expansion in parking is also needed. to such senseless inadequately sufficient Something has to be done about this. I parking. hear dozens of students complaining Thank you for your time and about this problem everyday. More consideration regarding this matter. parking areas need to be made available for student parking. —Stefanie A. Latham Financially, I cannot afford to pay UCO student

Acclaimed astronaut to be honored
O
klahoma astronaut Shannon Lucid, will be honored at a dinner hosted by The World Affairs Council of Central Oklahoma and Gov. Frank Keating. Lucid was recently awarded the Congressional Space Medal of Honor for her record-breaking 188-day stay in space aboard the space station Mir. A native of Bethany, she graduated from high school there in 1960 and received her B.S. and Ph.D. in-chemistry from the University of Oklahoma. In 1973 she was one of the first six females selected by NASA for its astronaut training program, and went into space her first time aboard Discovery in 1985. After three more missions that included 558 orbits around the earth, Lucid joined Russian cosmonauts aboard the space station Mir. The host of the event, the 300-member World Affairs Council, was founded last year by the University of Central Oklahoma, and has since been joined in its sponsorship by the University of Oklahoma, said Carl Reherman, executive director of Outreach and the Nigh Institute of State Government. "Its purpose is to promote international education," said Reherman who is also on the council's board of directors.
He said prominent international figures such as Lucid are not only brought in to speak to business and state leaders but "a portion of the time is dedicated to students in a seminar-type setting where they can listen and ask questions of the speaker." The dinner for Lucid will be at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 20, at the Kirkpatrick

UCO sorority educates on African-American issues By Telannia Hytche Staff Writer
I
n honor of black history month, one
campus sorority will incorporate history with community service. Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA), an African-American sorority, will tell a story about an African-American storyteller at 1:15 p.m. today in the Child Development Center in the Home
Economics Building. It is story about a man who goes around telling stories to pass his traditions on, said Dollet Jackson, president of AKA. To provide education on AfricanAmerican issues, the AKAs turned their attention to the adults on campus. The organization held a health forum Feb. 11 to raise awareness of sexually transmitted diseases. Khepra Khem, a community health

Mat Govich, Garry Sloan and Tara Beth Bailey of the UCO Music Department will perform in The Abduction from the Seraglio Feb. 20-23 at Mitchell Hall Theater.
Music department to present opera featuring love, comedy By Joanna Owen-Clouston Staff Writer
T
he music of Mozart will fill the air this weekend when the UCO Music Department presents the opera: The Abduction from the Seraglio. The opera which is sung in English with some spoken dialogue will be performed at 8 p.m. Feb. 20-22 and 2 p.m. Feb. 23 in Mitchell Hall Theater. The story is a light-hearted, sometimes comical look at love in the eighteenth century, said Laura Coale, music theater graduate assistant. The opera centers around the character Belmonte and his attempts to rescue his love Constanza when she is captured by pirates and sold into a harem. Coale said because operas are demanding on the voice the cast will change for each performance. This will also give more students a chance to perform, Cast for the Thursday and Saturday performances are: Robert Taylor — Belmonte Tara Bailey —Constanza Micheal Sheaffer —Pedrillo Heather Geery-Heinecke —Blonda Ryan Rhodes — Osmin
Chris Chauncey — Pasha Friday and Sunday performers are: Garry Sloan — Belmonte Noel Graves-Williams Constanza Micheal Scroggins —Pedrillo Joy Worley-Rothschild—Blonda Eric Sutter — Osmin Mat Govich — Pasha
Tickets are $8 for adults, $3 for senior citizens and $2 for children and non-UCO students. Admission is free for students, faculty and staff members with a valid UCO ID. For more information, call the Mitchell Hall Box Office at 3412980, Ext. 25 1 3.

Body language expert Jan Hargrave explains how our bodies communicate to the world around us e n producers of the newstabloid show Inside Edition called Jan Hargrave, their request was urgent. O.J. Simpson had agreed to a live television interview with Today Show anchor Bryant Gumbel. "We need your help," they pleaded, "We want to know if this guy's lying." At the last minute, Simpson canceled the interview. It may have been a wise decision. Hargrave has a national reputation for spotting dishonesty. In fact, for the past 10 years she's made it her business to teach others to do the same thing.

"If a man pulls up his socks in front of you, it's a sure sign he's interested," she said. "He's too nervous to ask you out, but he's thinking about it." Other indications of a man's romantic interest include squeezing a soft-drink can, opening and closing his jacket and tucking his thumbs into his belt loops. Women tend to hug their knees, and kick their feet to show attraction, she said. "If she's dangling her shoe on the end of her foot, she wants you," she told the men in the audience. While feet tend to be related to love, it seems to be the hands that tell the tale when it comes to honesty. There are three signs of lying, Hargrave said. And they all are done with the left hand. If someone takes their left index finger and rubs the side of their nose, they are probably lying, she said, adding that the same is true if a person uses the left index finger to tug at the left eye or to tug at their ear.

"It distracts the listener from what is being said," she explained. Honesty, however, is expressed with only one signal: The right palm over the heart. "Just like you're saying the Pledge of Allegiance." Hargrave, who has a master's degree in business education, said she became interested in body language as a graduate student at the University of Southwestern Louisiana. "My college professor often remarked, 'I know what you're thinking, Jan Hargrave.' It amazed me. All my graduate research from that point on was on body language." She said studying silent moviPs gave her tremendous in:,ight to how people use their body to communicate. "They couldn't use words, they had to get their message across with expressions and gestures." Today, Hargrave travels the country presenting workshops and

seminars on non-verbal communication and other topics including personality differences, increasing effectiveness through brain-power and staying positive in the work environment. Her client list includes NASA, Merril Lynch, Chase Manhattan Bank and ESPN. She said corporations use the skills she teaches to improve negotiating techniques, sales and interpersonal skills. An awareness of body language can benefit students as well, said Hargrave. During interviews or presentations, students can use body language to display confidence, convey interest and enhance positive negotiations, she said. Her advice for reading an interviewer's body language: "Remember, the more open the upper body is, the more receptive that person is to receiving your information." —By Lisa Tatum Staff Writer
Anatomy of a handshake...
A
ccording to body language expert, Jan Hargrave, it doesn't take a palm reader to decipher the signals people send when they extend their hand to another. Hargrave says exposing the palm is an indication of acceptance. She often consults politicians on how to appear more genuine using handshake techniques. There are several ways to shake hands, she said. If someone extends their hand with the palm facing down, it is a sign of control. Conversely, the palm facing the sky indicates submissiveness. A hand facing the side is a sign

With the transition of presidents they don't know the dollar amount of the award. President George Nigh wants the program to continue, she said. It is anticipated to go on through an endowment. Awards will be given out during the
"Salute to Education Week" in October. Last years winners were: 'Dr. David Bridge, assistant professor of math and statistics. 'Dr. Gladys Lewis, associate English professor.

Fraternities, sororities raise money for Greek Week By Heidi Centrella Staff Writer
T
hree brunettes in a hot tub (Sigma Kappa's) sold for $100 to the Acacia house Tuesday night at the All-Greek Slave Trade. The Slave Trade was an opportunity for seven Greek organizations to raise funds for Greek Week, Feb. 22-24. "The $950 raised will provide publicity, trophies and awards for Greek Week," said Christie Morales, Alpha Gamma Delta president. About 65 students auctioned their services. The participating organizations included:
•Alpha Gamma Delta •Delta Zeta •Sigma Kappa •Acacia •Alpha Tau Omega •Kappa Sigma 'Sigma Tau Gamma Opening bids started at $10. The purchases ranged from two Alpha Tau Omega's offering a 15-minute massage for $12 to those "three brunettes (Sigma Kappa's) in a hot tub, what more can you ask for?" said the auctioneer. Two girls offering, "Let's get crazy and wild and dance the night away," sold for $50, while two Sigma Tau Gamma's offering, "Anything you want," went for a
modest bid of $36. Two Alpha Gamma Delta's offered a "Day of slavery" for $47. The two members following them offered "Naked guys washing your car or doing anything," which went for $20. "We need the support of the campus and want to show that we are here," said Morales. "Our Greek system may not be as big as OU or OSU's, but we're definitely growing and want more students to get involved." Interfraternity Council President Dustin Gregory defines Greek Week as, "a time when all of the individual fraternities and sororities can come together and have a good time."
"We want to promote a positive image and show anyone who does not know the Greek system what we are all about," Gregory said. "We will have competitions (during Greek Week) among the organizations and a 'Spring Sing' where each of the houses does their own little skit," said Gregory. Any left over proceeds from the Slave Trade and Greek Week are, "generally donated to a benefit or charity." "We're really hoping to encourage students who aren't Greek to check out our organizations and realize that we're more than the stereotypical Animal House-frat boys we're seen as."

T
his June married women from across the state will gather at UCO's Mitchell Hall auditorium for the 1997 Mrs. Oklahoma pageant. Jennifer Johnson, Edmond resident and former Mrs. Oklahoma and Mrs. America, is the pageant's director. Many women at UCO are married and they are welcome to enter, said Johnson. The pageant is set for June 27-28. To enter women must be married, at least 18 years old, an Oklahoma resident and of good moral character. Contestants can not have posed in the nude, nor can they have been convicted of a felony, said Johnson. "A lot of people think the pageant is about beauty, and it really is," she said. "But the winner must be very
articulate as well." There is not a talent category, but there will be a swimsuit and an evening gown competition. The cost to enter is $450, the fee can be earned by selling advertisements. "We are expecting a packed house," she said."Tickets are $20 for the night of finals, and $12.50 on preliminary night. Two dollars for every ticket sold will go to the Children's Medical Reasearch Foundation." An informational luncheon will be held Feb 22.
