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.
