Minority post funds received By Kamal Mazian Staff Writer Central State University was awarded $10,000 March 22 from the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education through a program designed to encourage and increase the hiring and participation of underrepresented minority groups as full-time faculty members, Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Clyde Jacob said. "We're very pleased to receive the awards because we feel it will serve the best interests of the campus community," Jacob said. The regents at their meeting Feb. 20 approved nine minority faculty incentive awards for three institutions, including CSU. These awards totaling $65,000 were made for faculty hires from July 1, 1988, through Feb. 1 of this year, said Jeanie Edney, state regents communications director. CSU received $5,000 each for hiring two minority faculty in the cycle period—Wanda Johnson and Janet Fundara—for the psychology and nursing departments, respectively. Edney said through its faculty incentive grant program, the regents awarded $40,000 to the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center and $15,000 to Rose State College. "Though the regents reimbursed CSU for hiring new minority faculty, our hiring practices have never been motivated by the program because we've always been aggressive in our recruitment, long before the program was put into place in 1985. "We ought to be guided and motivated not by the dollar necessarily, but to be committed to social justice because it's the right thing to do. If there is any one problem, it is recruiting
qualified minorities in certain fields, such as math and science, where there is a shortage of minority faculty," Jacob said. There are currently 20 to 25 full-time minority faculty in the 350-member faculty at CSU. "As we begin to plan for CSU's personnel needs for next year (1989-90), we're going to encourage academic deans to aggressively pursue the hiring of minority faculty. "We realized that minority faculty at CSU represents a commitment on the part of the university's administration to achieve a more representative, broad-based faculty—a reflection of the real world," Jacob said. According to Edney, CSU has received six awards totaling $70,000 since the program began in 1985. In 1987 alone, CSU received three awards valued at $55,000. "The regents began underwriting the program in 1985 in response to the report of the Special Committee on Affirmative Action in Higher Education sponsored by the Oklahoma House of Representatives that same year," Edney said. To qualify for the program, an institution must fill a permanent position with a minority faculty member who holds a master's degree or a doctorate, Edney said. The minority groups are defined as Black, American Indian and Hispanic. The regents will provide an award of $25,000 for each eligible, full-time permanent minority faculty members who hold a doctorate and an award of $5,000 for those who hold a master's degree, Edney said. The next hiring cycle for which CSU may qualify for the program will end June 30 of this year, Edney said.
Debaters win third Central State University's debate team won third place in the 4th National Cross Examination Debate Association tournament. The tournament drew 238 teams from all 50 states and was held March 31-April 3 at the University of South Carolina. Debate team coach Doug Duke was the tournament director. "This is the highest placing that CSU has accomplished in the nap tional tournament of CEDA," David Duke said. CSU's Drew Duke, a senior from Edmond, and Charles Mallard, a junior from Guymon, won third place. In the preliminary competition, the two men won six of eight debates. On their way to a third place finish, Duke and Mallard defeated Suffolk University, California State University at Ir-
vine, California State University at Santa Clara and the University of Alabama before losing in the semi-finals to Southern Illinois University. SIU won last year's national championship and finished second to Gonzaga University, Washington, this year. Sandy Carroll, a senior from Edmond, received an eighth place individual award, Duke said. Other teams also did well. Team mates Sandy Carroll and Bartley Logsdon and team mates Ronnie Wilson and Wayne Harrell tied for 32nd place in the nation. "perhaps the greatest accomplishment is the recognition given to the program (CSU's) for the effort of the entire CSU team by being awarded the sixth place sweepstakes award for 1989," Duke said.

Faculty Senate elects 15; runoff underway Terill
No presidential election pending appeal outcome Pending the outcome of an appeal by Randal Terrill to the student senate, no election was held yesterday for president, said Deanna Land, associate dean of students. Terrill said he had been removed from the ballot for alleged election rule violations, and he would appeal the decision. Student Senate President Lisa Coen said the senate would meet Monday to hear Terrill's appeal. It was not known at press time when the election would take place. Terrill's opponent Joe Stehr said he was disappointed that the election would not take place. He also said that he had followed all campaign rules. Terrill may appeal the decision of the senate to President Bill Lillard.
By Lori Aronson Student Writer A runoff election is underway between Dr. Lon Dehnert, assistant professor of music, and Dr. Steven. Pratt, assistant professor of oral communications, for the one remaining Faculty Senate seat in the College of Liberal Arts. The results of the runoff will be announced April 11, according to Fritz Buckallew, chairman of the Faculty Senate Committee on Constitution, Parliamentary Procedures and Elections. The committee counted the regular election votes on March 16. A total of 16 seats from all the colleges and administration were voted on along with two constitutional amendments. The other four seats in the College of Liberal Arts will be filled by Dr. Marcia Hakala, assistant professor of foreign languages; Dr. Lewis Irving, professor of sociology; Dr. Samuel Magrill, assistant professor of music; and Dr. Gwendolyn Olivier, assistant professor of oral communication. The four seats voted on in the College of Business will be filled by Bart Binning, decision sciences instructor; Ray Clanton, assistant professor of accounting; Dr.
JoAnn DeVries, assistant professor of accounting; and Dr.
Billye Peterson, assistant professor of administrative services and business education. In the College of Education the four new senators are: Dr. Frances Alsworth, associate professor of curriculum and instruction; Rodger Grubbs, curriculum and instruction; Dr. Valerie Knotts, assistant professor of home economics; and Paul Parent, health and physical education instructor and track coach. The two new senators from the College of Math and Sciences are: Dr. Thomas Bass, assitant professor of biology and Dr. Verlin Richardson, professor of chemistry. Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Albert Lynd won the senate seat open in administration. "There would have been a runoff but the other two candidates withdrew from the race," Buckallew said. Both amendments dealing with moving electoral procedures from the bylaws to the constitution passed. The amendments must now be approved by President Bill Lillard.

Viewpoints Reading: Foundation of writing, education By Darl DeVault Guest Writer Reading_ is the foundation of writing. Reading has always been one of the most valuable tools of the educational process. Reading allows us to be transported through space and time, to entirely different areas of the world, to ex a mine
Opinion cultures and concepts that we are not able to examine through any other means. To write well, it certainly helps to have read widely and remember what makes each story or plot unique. A concept you may have learned in your psychology courses is that you and I are a product of our environment. You and I, except for that genuine spark of creativity and insight we have within ourselves, can never be more than what we have been exposed to during our lifetime. If you have not been exposed to our literary heritage, than you can not achieve your full potential. This will reflect in the status you ascribe to in life and your eventual accomplishments.

If you think you do not have to know what has been written in the past by others, you are setting yourself up for failure. There is a tremendous legacy of brilliant insight into the human condition. It has been passed down to us through the works of individuals writing about what went on in their day and time. You have to familiarize yourself with good literature, if you expect to be able to have creative insight into mankind's struggle to survive. This insight is necessary to write something of literary value, and it certainly helps to have read and be familiar with the many literary themes that have been explored before. Only by reading a diverse crosssection of our literary heritage do we make the all-important first step in becoming a good and effective writer. You can not write anything of real content, of any real spark of creativity, until you have absorbed the basics. You learn your craft by reading the works of those singularly gifted men and women who, as writers, have come before you. You have to pay your dues by becoming a student of the craft, and the only way to do that is to read widely, and I am not talking about Stephen King novels. A good example of a valuable book that is not a classic, but distills everything of our cultural literacy into one very readable format is a book by E.D. Hirsch, Jr., published in 1987 titled "Cultural Literacy" with the subtitle "What every American needs to know." If you have already established a program of reading important works of literature you can test your progress by using the list at the back of the book called "What Literate Americans Know." It is possible to matriculate through the system, make your 4.0 grade point average, and, finally, after graduation find the time to read the literary masterpieces, as I have outlined above. Be forewarned however, you need this skill to express yourself or to amplify whatever particular subject you have chosen to be your life's work or field of expertise. If you decide to write after college, it will be difficult to find the time to read as extensively as you can now. To have read the classics, and to have appreciated all types of good writing is the greatest confidence builder any writer can achieve. I reach back and use the words of a brilliant man, John C. Mills who said, "For every artist with something to say but the inability to say it well, there are two who could say something well, if they had something to say." Don't be caught in the latter group. Start now—even if you just find the time to finish one book a month. Develop a lifelong learning pattern now, while you have plenty of support in this university community.
‘11 Writer says,
Students gypped by Nigh To the Editor: Of all the "important" issues so thoroughly covered in The Vista, it has surprised me that no one to date has criticized our illustrious scholar-in-residence (former) Gov. George Nigh about his obvious political motives concerning the Nigh Institute of Government. While it is always a worthy endeavor to have such an
Letter experienced person at our service here, it strikes me as contemptable that at the recent "Salute to Congress," barely one-sixth of the attendees were either faculty or students of our university. One would think, nay hope, that the students of CSU would warrant greater consideration than this. While patronizing dinners such as these have always been a staple of good-ol'-boy politics here in Oklahoma, to bring it right here on our campus is a shame. I know that there are more than 100 government and or political science students attending school here. Were their interests thought of? Naturally, no. Most of us in college never get to see or hear any of our state leaders in person unless we (1) pay huge per-plate prices at a fundraiser or (2) happen to work in that particular politician's campaign. Governor, give us a break. If it was a one-shot deal, it might lessen my feelings, but the students were recently taken advantage of again when the chairman of the board you serve on at
J.C. Penney came to campus. From what I gather, out of 60 tables at the "event," there was to be one student per table. How generous!! My thinking would suggest that the future business leaders of our state, not the current ones, would derive a greater benefit from this experience.
We all recognize the fact that you chose CSU over other institutions, and that yes, your contributions to this school are many. However, please, if your political base needs shoring up, do it somewhere else besides our campus. Raymond May
Coen wants students to contact legislators To the Editor: It is hard to believe that this school term is going to come to a close very soon. My position as student body president is also coming to an end. I have had many opportunities to work for the students of CSU. Below are issues that are important to all students at CSU. Higher education—quality. Recently, Governor Bellmon declared Feb. 22, Higher Education Day • in the State of Oklahoma. On that day, myself and several other campus leaders from across the State of Oklahoma met with the legislators to lobby for funding for Higher Education. I realize that no one is happy with the recent tuition increases, but as leaders we have to be concerned with the future. Tuition increases matched by a significantly greater state appropriation is the key to bringing the system of Higher Education up off the bottom. I urge you to write your legislator and tell them how you feel about their needed commitment to quality education. In addition, we will soon be starting a campaign to get as many CSU students to send letters
to their legislators as possible. We have the letter ready to go. All that a student has to do is tell us what county they are from and the letters will be printed and the student can sign them. My goal is to have 2,500 letters sent from CSU students. In mid-April, campus leaders from across the state will be hand delivering these letters. This is something that every student needs to be concerned with and actively involved with. Should you have any questions or want to start with the letters, call or come by the Student Association office, in Room 424E of University Center or call ext. 3337. Applications are available now and the elections are scheduled for April 5th. I urge every CSU student to get involved with the Student Association. In closing, I would like to say that the Student Association is continuing to request money to fund campus organization and will keep doing so until the day that we receive that money. Please, if you have the opportunity, talk with an administrator and explain the needs of your organization. Lisa S. Coen
Timing to blame, Noley says
April 6, 1989 § The Vista § page 3
Indian issue discussion has poor attendance The First Americans Student Association held a Panel discussion on Indian issues on March 28. Attendance for the event was less than expected and very disappointing said Dr. James Noley, CSU's Minority Student Services coordinator. Noley attributed the poor attendance to the timing of the event...immediately following spring break. The panel discussion was to be a part of Indian Heritage Week, but due to the lack of participation the group decided to cancel it. However, the group decided that steps must be taken to prevent the same thing from happening again next year. According to Noley, the lack of
student participation has been noticed in other club and organizational functions. Terry White, president of the First Americans Student Association, agreed with Noley and added that the apathy could be due to the fact that CSU is mainly a commuter school. Some other events that occurred during the week's celebration included two movies "Windwalker" and "Running Brave" that were shown Monday night. On Wednesday an Indian Cultural Fair was held that including such things Indian Story Telling by Evalu Russell, Plains Dancing by FASA members, and a Choctaw Stickball Game. Thursday's big event was a Princess and Brave Banquet and Fashion Show.

Study planned for aid receivers By Bretta Barrio Student Writer
Plans to do an institutional study on financial aid recipients at Central State University are underway, according to Sherri Hancock, director of financial aid. The study will determine how many recipients complete their degrees and how lona it takes them to graduate, Hancock said. The study will also evaluate recipients grade levels, ages, races and types of aid received. The purpose for conducting_ the study is to see where we are with financial aid and to see if there are changes to be made," Hancock said. The study will be used to determine if there is a need for better distribution of funds, and maybe to discover needs in a particular area. For example, if a single parent ends up with more of a loan debt proportionate to grants, the financial aid office will make adjustments if funding is available, Hancock said. The study will be conducted by

the financial aid office, and the results may have an impact on recruitment directions, Hancock said. A related study concerned with retention was conducted by the Enrollment Nlanagement Committee, a committee formed in the fall of 1988 to study retention at CSU, according to Dr. Edward Cunliff, chairman of the committee. The retention study examined students from the fall of '87 and the fall of '88 who did not return to CSU. The study showed that financial aid didn't appear to be a critical factor in rentention, Hancock said. Hancock said she doesn't forsee any major changes that may result from the recipients study, but will look at changes if the study indicates a need. When the study is completed, the committee will submit research reports to the president of CSU. The reports will also be available for anyone to read, Hancock said.
Dr. Anthony Greybosch will discuss the relationship between physics and philosophy on April 12 at a meeting of the Society of Physics Students of Central State University. On April 18, Dr. Bruce Palmer from Kerr-McGee Technical Center will speak on an unannounced subject. The physics group meets from 4:30-5:30 p.m. every Wednesday in Room 205 of Howell Hall. The seminars are not reserved for science students only. All who are interested are welcome to attend.

Wesleyan captures Kickingbird Classic
Hmmm, which way does it break? Broncho freshman Brett Guillot ponders his next move at Tuesday's Kickingbird Classic in Edmond. Guillot finished with a 79 on the day as CSU went on to finish second behind Texas Wesleyan 883-893. (Photo by: Stan Pollard)
By Chris Dotson Student Writer The Central State golf team came away with a second-place finish at the Kickingbird Classic this past Monday and Tuesday at the Kickingbird Golf Course in Edmond. The team finished behind Texas Wesleyan 883-893. Texas Wesleyan's victory avenged a 24-stroke loss the Bronchos pinned on them last week at the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Golf Tournament in Lawton. Sophomore Chris Carpenter shot a 210 to finish No. 1 in individual play, beating Scott Harris of Hardin-Simmons by a margin of six strokes, 210-216. Junior Tim Adler shot 218 to grab third place in individuals, beating out Andy Fuller of Texas Wesleyan and Drew Pounds of Hardin-Simmons by one stroke.
CSU fielded two teams, and the first team came away with second place. Freshman Brett Guillot stroked a 226, followed by junior Curtis Wangrud's 228. Sophomore Acey Hopper came away with a 233, while junior John Shelly stroked a 235. "Mostly all the players shot high games because of the winds," John Shelley said. "The team had a good first round and shot a good second round. Chris played really well with the exception of the winds." The golf team will take off one week, and then continue with the Lonestar Conference Championships April 17-19 in Norman.

Thinclads finish second in tourney By Chris Dotson Student Writer The Broncho track team finished second overall last weekend in a meet at Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Ark. Central State tennis coach Paul Parent said he was pleased with the efforts of his track team, "All in all the team did pretty good," Parent said. "The winds were not
a factor this week, as in other weeks." CSU finished with 147 points, only 29 points behind Ouachita Baptist who had 176 points, Hendersonville College received 146 points, and Austin College had 43 points. In the 800-meter run, Al McKey placed first, and his time was 1:57.18. Aaron Sprague finished
second with a time of 1:57.25. Mike Hogan placed fifth 4th with a time of 1:59.81. In field events, CSU received 23 points in the shot put event with efforts from Lance McCaskill who came in first with a throw of 49 feet 10 '/2 inches. "We were tied with Hendersonville till the shot put event, and Matt Parent, on his best throw of
the year, gave us one point that put us ahead of Hendersonville for second place," Coach Parent said. Discus received 21 points from McCaskill, who placed 1st in the discus with a throw of 152 feet and 3 inches, and team members Nichols and Parent, who gave their best throws.

Tournament frustrates CSU coach Softballers win two, but drop three By Randy Anderson Sports Writer Central State's 14th-ranked softball team went to Kansas March 31st to compete in the Emporia State Softball Invitational. The 11-8 Lady Bronchos started
out strong by whipping up on Wayne State of Nebraska 3-0. Freshman pitcher Jacquie Stephens picked up the victory in the game and ran her record to 5-3. In the second game against
Washburn, Kansas, Lady Broncho coach Gerry Pinkston had revenge on her mind. "Last year we lost to them in the national playoffs. We really wanted to beat them," Pinkston said.
CSU played tough, but let Washburn slip by in an extra inning affair, 4-3. Senior hurler Jane Kajs dropped the eight-inning duel and saw her record dip to 3-1. Things didn't get much better in

the next game against Friends University of Kansas. "We had one of the most frustrating games of the season against Friends. Their pitcher was the slowest in the world and we couldn't make the adjustment," Pinkston said. Friends played tough and defeated the Lady Bronchos 5-0. Stephens took the loss for CSU, dropping her record to 5-4. In the contest against Central Missouri, the Bronchos came up empty again. The errors allowed and inability to score runs enabled Central Missouri to come away with a victory 5-0. "I thought Central Missouri was the best team we played in the tournament," Pinkston said.. CSU had one bad inning where they committed three errors. Along with the hitting of Central Missouri, the Lady Bronchos again came up on the short end of the stick. The long trip back to Edmond was made easier when CSU got back on the winning track by defeating Barton County Cornmunity College 4-0. The Lady Bronchos pounded out ten hits en route to their victory.

Businessmen to contribute also
Business profs to trade ideas at symposium By Salina Nik Idris Staff Writer The Southwest Business Symposium of Central State University will be held 12 - 5 p.m. April 20 and 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. April 21 on the 4th floor of University Center, said Myrtle Christian, secretary for the College of Business and Southwest Business Symposium. A luncheon will be held at the close of the symposium at 12:30 p.m. Friday featuring a keynote speaker, said Doug Allen, professor of management and MBA adviser. There will be a $15 fee for CSU faculty members and $50 for offcampus faculty, Christian said. The purpose for the seminar is to have faculty from all over the country present papers they have written for discussion during the seminar, Christian said. There will also be a panel discussion on the topic of "Building Computer Competencies for Leading Edge Technologies," said Paula Smith, chairperson of Southwest Business Symposium and assistant
professor of decision sciences. Business and Industrial leaders will also attend the seminar to meet with the faculty members and exchange views about business problems. These business leaders will in turn help the faculty in the business area, Allen said. "There will be a hospitality reception Thursday evening at the Sheraton Hotel for the faculty and business leaders to get acquainted with one another on a more personal basis," Christian said. There will be approximately 44 papers to be presented from 42 universities in 21 states including four from CSU which are from the institutional research, computer science and business colleges, Christian said. The businesses that will be attending the symposium are T.D. Williamson, Inc.; Strategic LongRange Planning and Management Consultant; Cimarron Capital Management Co.; LTD Associates and Professional Management Services; Facet Enterprises; Oklahoma Tax Cornmission, Estate Tax Section;
Lightning quiets KCSC transmitter By Mark Mitchell Staff Writer
Radio station KCSC was blown off the air the evening of April 24 after lightning hit the the station's transmitting tower. KCSC Chief Engineer Larry Iverson said lightning struck the tower approximately 10:30 p.m. causing the entire transmitter building to shut-down. Equipment damage amounted to about $2300, he said. The radio station was off the air until 4:30 p.m. April 28. Iverson said the primary problem with repair of the current system, besides age, lies with parts availability. He said he was directed to Mike Burns at WAMU at American University in Washington, D.C., by Bill Ashley of Bradley Broadcast Sales, who thought they might have a similar transmitter. He said there is a certain amount of networking when it comes to situations like these, but "the broadcast community will generally help a station out when equipment goes down." Iverson said "RCA went out of business in 1984, and there hasn't been any factory or technical support for this transmitter model since 1987."
The problem was further cornpounded when the cooling system, which moves 5,000 cubic feet per minute through the facility, shutoff, he said. Iverson cornpared the situation to boiling water on a stove. "You can turn the fire off under the pan, but that doesn't eliminate the fact that the water is still boiling hot." Iverson said the heat build-up combined with the surge to finish the job started by the lightning bolt. "Essentially the blower system at the transmitter site works on the same principle as the radiator fan on a new car; you turn the car off and the fan still runs." The March issue of Overture, KCSC's monthly program guide, contains a letter from station manager Donna Peters to station members outlining specific equipment needs and remedies. In the letter, Peters cautioned readers against replacing their radio, saying they should be aware that the problem is not with their receivers, but with the station's 11-year-old transmitter. Peters explained further the equipment is fragile at best, and despite preventive measures the possibility of leaving the air without warning exists.
Medical school reps to discuss admission A panel discussion by representatives from the admission offices of four Oklahoma medical schools will be held at 1:40 p.m. April 7 in Room 202 of Howell Hall. The discussion is sponsored by the American Chemical Society. According to Linda Grummer, club president, representatives from the University of Oklahoma
College of Medicine and College of Dentistry will be here. Oklahoma State University Veterinary School will also send a representative. And for the first time, the Oklahoma Osteopathic School will be represented. "The panel is for all students who are considering careers in these fields," Grummer said.
American Marazzi Tile, Inc.; and Miller and Miller, CPA's, Christian said. "The participation gets better every year and they enjoy coming to CSU because the faculty here are friendly," Christian said. The Southwest Business Symposium offically began in 1983 with Doug Allen as the chairman and James Perry as the dean of business, Christian said. "It was set up during those years when funds were tied and money was needed to fund faculty to travel and attend conferences," Allen said. It has been successful and I enjoyed working at the Symposium. I met a lot of business leaders which help build my contacts,
Allen said. "We wanted to create a conference where academicians could meet with businessmen," Allen said. The businesses that are represented at the symposium will have to pay for their participation. The symposium is a nonprofit organization with the proceeds used for the printing of proceedings, other printing materials and receptions, Allen said. To get businesses to participate, fliers are sent out to various companies in the Oklahoma City area. If they are interested they can contact the chairperson, Allen said. Joe Kinzer, dean for the college of business, will choose one faculty member from the colle g e of
business every two years to become chairperson for the symposium, Allen said. Judith Muse, representing the accounting department, took over as chairperson for Allen after his two years were completed. Then Torn Trittipol of the marketing department replaced Muse but served only one year after he was named chairman of the marketing department and Smith took over and she is now in her first year as chairperson, Allen said. The whole program is basically for faculty development, Allen said. Students who are interested to attend the seminar may do so and are required to dress professionally, Smith said.
