Feds up university audits

Financial aid office OK'd

Central State University's Financial Aid Office is not in violation of any campus student-aid programs, according to a report

Dean to spare am. classes for symposium College of Liberal Arts students will be excused from classes from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. April 11 for the student scholarly symposium, "Crosscurrents II." In a letter from Liberal Arts Dean Clif' Warren, delivered to liberal arts faculty and chairpersons, he urged all faculty to pre-empt Wednesday morning classes and encourage their students to attend the symposium. Warren said the second annual symposium provides a forum for outstanding liberal arts students to present their research and creative work. Symposium programs will be available today at the dean's office and sample programs will be delivered to faculty mailboxes. The symposium is sponsored by the New Plains Review.

from an independent accounting firm and Education Department officials. "CSU is complying with federal regulations on student-aid funds," said Shiela Fugett, financial aid diirector. "We did not have to repay the funds worth well over $3 million received from the federal government." Fugett said she thinks they will be visited by auditors from the Education Department again in the coming months. The Education Department has stepped up its auditing of college and proprietary-school studentaid offices and is demanding they pay back millions of dollars in allegedly misspent or ineligible aid funds, The Chronicle of Higher Education reported March 21. Upset by alleged abuses of student-aid programs and the spiraling government costs for student loan defaults, President Bush's budget plan for 1991 includes money for hiring 60 new Education Department staff members to offices responsible for audits.

The department reviewed 2,697 audits, insisting on refunds totaling $25.4 million in 1986. In the first four months this year, the department asked for the return of $26.3 million based on 992 audits, according to The Chronicle.

The department audits colleges through its Inspector General and Postsecondary Education offices. Officials from the department's Inspector General office audited student-aid programs at CSU in January of last year, according to Steve Schutten, CSU's internal auditor. "The officials found no discrepancies or deviations from federal guidelines when they did a program review of financial aid at CSU, based on a test of about 50 files for 1988-89," Schutten said. Also, the Oklahoma City-based accounting firm of Einstein & Young conducted last August an audit of CSU's total financial operations, including student financial aid, Schutten said. The Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges has a three-year contract with Einstein & Young to conduct audits at six regional universities in the state, including CSU, Schutten said. The accounting firm presented last October to the board a full report of CSU's business affairs operations for 1988-89, Schutten said. "We submitted a copy of the report to the Education Department," Schutten said, "because colleges are required to report every two years student aid audits Please see AID on page 8.

Some faculty miss grading deadline By Debbie Blossom Staff Writer

Even with a deadline, not all Central State University faculty members turned in their students' mid-term grades to administration on time, said Darrell Gilliland, director of admissions and records. Faculty were required to submit all student mid-term grades by 4 p.m., March 9. "We don't personally call and remind instructors of their deadline for mid-term grades like we do for final semester grades," Gilliland said. A spokesperson at the College of Mathematics and Science reported 100 percent of the teachers turned in student grades by the

deadline, the only college out of four to do so. The College of Education had five instructors who missed the deadline; the College of Business Administration, five; and the College of Liberal Arts, seven. "There were more late reports than usual this semester," Gilliland said, "although final grade reporting is almost always 100 percent on time." Liberal Arts Dean Clif' Warren told department chairmen some faculty had missed the deadline, and teachers who thought they could turn grades in late were being misled. Faculty were informed that those who do not meet their deadlines will find this information submitted to the president's office, and it will be included in their files.

Help make apathy a part of history By DeWayne Smoot Editor in chief

It's election time again, and—more than likely—hundreds, if not thousands, of students will, once again, opt not to vote for any of the candidates eligible for student leadership: not because the candidates are not qualified, because students just won't vote. It has almost become a Central State University tradition to boycott the polls on election day. Students who don't vote testify to a variety of reasons for why they don't, but none are worthy excuses: • "I don't know where to vote;" • "I don't have time to vote;" • "I don't know who the candidates are;" • or "I don't know how the candidates will address the issues." This year, these excuses are not valid. Every presidential candidate and, until Thursday, the uncontested vice presidential can-

didate received platform coverage in The Vista, a televised presidential candidate debate on KCSU TV-2, and on KBLZ radio. In addition, a forum sponsored by the Student Association Senate Wednesday gave students another chance to view the candidates. Every week, The Vista receives letters from disgruntled students. Yet, with only 300 students turning out for last year's executive election, it's hard to digest the sincerity of any attempts to resolve an injustice. One purpose of higher education is to graduate students who are informed, welleducated: a group who will help mold and shape American society as it evolves into a global society. Without healthy voter participation, only the needs of a few are met. The needs of CSU students are just as important, not only in preparation of becoming an integral part of society, but in demanding that administration meets the growing needs of students.

Politics, art, name change top woes OIL governor tired of Terrill, wants objectivity To the Editor: I am a student at Central State University and I feel that I need to write a letter in response to many things that have occured this semester. I am very disappointed in the publicity that has been given to Randy Terrill throughout the year. I feel he is using The Vista as a tool to gain a lot of publicity and The Vista feels obligated in some way to help Randy out. I have read The Vista several times throughout the year and have found many articles written about and written by Randy Terrill. These articles are almost always slanted one way. I don't know why you continually slant these articles to help him achieve his goals of ripping the student government apart. Professional journalists would not show such biasness in their writing so why does The Vista? This is a learning institution, and we are all here to learn how it is done right. How can a member of your staff get a job in the real world if you can't do it right at Central State University?

Although he has not announced yet, Randy is running for president? I have a question, is The Vista going to endorse Randy if he does decide to run? If you do, I'm sure I will know the reason why. You also refer to Randy, in every article written, as a former Student Senate speaker. This is the most innaccurate title of all. Randy was elected speaker, but that election was nullified at the very next Student Senate meeting. He never actually reigned as the speaker. I nominated him for speaker, but when I found out what all he had done before he was elected speaker, I felt obligated to get him removed. This election for president is very important. I feel that students should do what is right and vote against Terrill. I know I am not only voting for Peter Regan but am also voting against Randy Terrill.

Taxpayers don't have to support art they dislike To the Editor: Once again we have been subjected to your brand of biased, one-sided journalism. Not wasting taxpayer dollars is not the same as

censorship. In my opinion, wasting taxpayers' money for this "art" display ranks right along with the Pentagon's expenditures for toilet seats and coffee pots. The artist has every right and freedom to rent a building, charge an entrance fee to all that agree with this type of art, and make the display self-supporting. Or, you and all those that want may mail in any money to help support the display. The value of this art can be represented by its success or failure. Many of us agree more money needs to be spent; trying to clean up the environment, research for AIDS and other diseases, the homeless and starving of America, drug abuse treatment centers, child abuse and battered women programs, to list but a few. This is where I want my tax dollars going. With federal, state, county, and city taxes and tuition increases, it is possible that many are paying in much more than any personal benefit that will ever be received.

I am tired of wasting money on the whims of lobbyists and journalists hiding behind freedom of speech and censorship every time someone else does not agree with their opinion.

School problems won't be solved by name change To the Editor: It appears President Lillard is dead set on changing the university's name. Never mind that the new name is even more lame than the present one. Sick of being ignored by Lillard, the Student Association decided to go along with the stroke of genius. Both the Student Association and administration argue that CSU has an identitiy crisis. They propose that the new name will mark the beginning of a new era of progress. But don't worry, CSU fans, the new university promises to hold over the same overcrowded classes, general apathy, lousy parking, and crummy course offerings we've all grown to love. Lillard still hasn't figured out how to pay for this bright idea. Rest assured it will be squeezed out of CSU's meager budget and any surprise faculty cuts. If you're not sold on the new name, the administration and SA would like you to remember. "Fixing a school is hard. Reinventing a university is easy."

Air travel, first-class hotels, breakfasts, and guided half-day sight-seeing tours are included in the tour price of $2,460. A $75 discount is available for persons age 62 and over, applying also to one accompanying adult of any age. "The tour is open to anyone of 01 0 0

picking it up in the summer as well," Van Osdol said. Van Osdol has sponsored tours of China, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Greece, Italy, Egypt, Turkey, Israel, Sweden, Norway, Spain, London, Wales and Hawaii, to name just a few. "The trips are always very enjoyable," Van Osdol said. "There are people who come with us year after year. "We even had a trip to Russia scheduled one year that we had to cancel because of the Chemobyl accident." Only 20 places are available for this tour.

struggling with this ongoing difficulty. "I think what goes astray is that we spend too much on housing and we do a poor job of keeping track of what we spend on a daily basis," Wilson said. "For instance, instead of looking for just a place to live, students look for a place with swimming pools and the best workout room," Wilson said. "Another factor we tend to start looking at; apartments and houses that are out of a realistic price range in the first place." Wilson also said students and others do a poor job of keeping track of what daily comes out of their pocket. "A Coke here and a candy-bar there adds up. It's that little bit of money that adds up," Wilson said. "We are guilty of eating out far too much and this is where a lot of student money goes." Another financial factor that affects students is insurance. Wilson said whether it be automobile, life or health insurance, many students get bogged down trying to find a way to pay the bills. "I don't think enough students are aware that student insurance is available through the university and this could possibly help many out," Wilson said. Students can also establish a

budget through university employment, which is available through Personnel Services. Angie Watson, student worker, said this is one of the most successful ways students gain employment. "A lot of students rely on us to find them jobs and many students are taking advantage of it," Watson said. "We almost always have an opening for students who come in." Watson said the process of getting a university job is fairly easy. Bill Foster, CSU graduate student, said hard work is one way to maintain a student budget. Foster said he works full time and is enrolled in six hours of graduate courses. Tammy Brehm, 21-year-old sophomore, said her parents are one source of income and help to pay some bills, but she also works on campus in the College of Business Administration. The Placement Office gives students an opportunity to establish placement files which include academic transcripts and personal records. As far as students taking advantage of this service, it doesn't seem to have caught on, said Kent Todd, Placement Office director. OE 0

Save Earth!

Planet's plight focus for April

By Marie Bigger

Student Writer Save your old cans. Start a compost pile. Supply your own sack at the grocery. These are just some suggestions from the sponsors of Earth Day 1990, set for April 22, a 20-yearold nationwide push aimed at getting Americans to look at what's happening to the planet. Jim Stovall, environmentalist, hopes this month's Earth Day activities will be "too big to ignore." "People will be planting trees,

sweeping city streets, competing in footraces, touring wilderness areas and listening to various environmental speakers," Stovall said. "We hope to create the same environment that was in place in the 70s, when the Clean Air and Water Acts were passed," said Margaret Ruff, spokeswoman for the Oklahoma Wildlife Federation. Wednesday, April 4, a national videoconference was held. About 30 city officials attended the local hooK-up at OklahOma City Community College. The conference was live from

Honors banquet set for education students Friday By Jana Potts

Student Writer Central State University's College of Education will hold its sixth annual honors banquet, "Honor to Whom Honor is Due," at 7 p.m. Friday in the University Center Ballroom. The presentation of various awards to students and faculty, and recognition of honor roll students will highlight the banquet. A reception will begin prior to the banquet at 6:30 p.m. in the University Center Heritage Room.

Sports Titans avenge CSU in men's net rematch By Bill Kramer

Sports Editor

Oral Roberts University won all but one match Tuesday and handed Central State University its third loss of the season, an 8-1 setback in Tulsa. The 17th-ranked NCAA II Bronchos had beaten the Titans, 6-3, Feb. 23 in Edmond, but ORU played much better this time and dropped CSU to 11-3 on the season. Freshman sensation Jong Demonteverde, ranked 15th in the nation, lost a 6-1, 6-1 match to ORU's Gary Nadebaum in the

opening match of the day. Demonteverde beat Nadebaum in the earlier encounter, 6-3,6-3. At No. 2 singles, CSU's Steve Hedrick fell to ORU's Jeremy Dutoit, 7-5, 6-4, followed by Elton Jenkins' 7-5, 6-1, loss to ORU's Lawrence Fiorentino in No. 3 sinlges. Edmond sophomore Hank Pelligrini also was defeating by an ORU opponent, falling 6-2, 6-2, to John Campbell. The only victory for the Bronchos was at No. 5 singles as Mont Roper beat Byron Alp, 7-5, 2-6, 6-2. CSU's Joseph Santiago was beaten, 7-5, 6-4, by the Titans' Roy Stewart.

For 89ers, the future is now Baseball fanatics have an enjoyable summer of action ahead with the Oklahoma City 89ers, the triple-A minor league affiliate of the Texas Bill Rangers. Kramer Oklahoma City fans have had plenty to complain about the past few years because of a committment made by the Ranger's head office to stock the minor league farm system with major league talent. For four years, the question around town has been, when will Oklahoma City get some of those talented players? Last year, for instance, the 89ers had the worst record in the American Association at 59-86. It was a team stacked with rejects. Times have changed. So, what's the good news for Oklahoma City this year? Take notice, Oklahoma City, the stars have arrived! The Rangers top minor league prospects are now just one level away from the big leagues—AAA Oklahoma City. Four prospects ranked in the top 20 by Baseball America begin play in 89er uniforms this year.

Outfielder Juan Gonzalez, signed by the Rangers in 1986 at age 16, is rated as the fourth-best prospect in all of baseball. He had a .293 average with 21 homers, 85 runs batted in, 30 doubles and seven triples last year at AA Tulsa. Relief pitcher David Lynch, 8-0 with seven saves last year at Tulsa also joins the 89ers this season. Returning to the 89ers is third baseman Scott Coolbaugh who walloped 18 homers and 74 RBI in 144 games with OKC. Coolbaugh has one of the smoothest deliveries from third to first of any player in the game, not to mention a big pop in his bat. Also returning to the 89ers is starting pitcher John Barfield, who went 10-8 with a 4.06 ERA last year. The talent doesn't end there. Oklahoma City has a definite playoff contending team. Although dividends have yet to pay off at the major league level, the Rangers farm system has set club records for victories each of the past two season, combining for 366 wins in 1988 and 373 wins last year, fourth-best among the 26 or•anizations across the nation. Rookie league farm team, Butte, finished at 41-25 en route to their second straight division title. The other rookie league team, the Gulf Coast Rangers, were 32-28

and above .500 for the 16th time in their 17-year history. Class A Gastonia (Fla.) also won a division title and boasted the best record in minor league baseball at 92-48 and Class A Charlotte won the Florida State League championship. Class AA Tulsa won the Texas League championship in 1988 and finished 73-63 last year. New part-owner Bobby Murcer and manager Steve Smith, who won minor league titles in 1987 for AA Wichita and in 1988 for AAA Las Vegas, combine with a fresh new paint job at All Sports Stadium, new uniforms and allbeef hot dogs at the concessions to remodel the 89ers in 1990. Maybe fans can enjoy more than just getting a tan at the games this season.

Resler fielding stellar year By Ray Dozier Student Writer A hard-hit ground ball. The batter sees the ball being scooped up and hopes to beat the throw to first base as number 21 eagerly awaits with an outstretched arm. Out! Number 21 is Trina Resler, starting first baseman and sometimes pitcher for the Central State University softball team. After 28 games, Resler leads the Lady Bronchos in putouts, and her .985 percent fielding average is best among the starters. All this by a player who had never played first base until she donned a bronze-and-blue uniform.

"My sister (Viki) was a very good first baseman," the Alva senior said. "She helped me when I switched to first base (at CSU) and I learned a lot from her." Resler played shortstop and was an All-State pitcher at Alva and had not seen any action on the mound for the Lady Bronchos until this year. She's currently 5-3 with an 1.04 ERA. "I love to pitch because you control the game," Resler said. "Coach (Pinkston) told me she needed me to pitch this year since Kelly (Powell) couldn't pitch and I had only a few months to work on getting my pitching game back." Old habits weren't hard to bring

Trina Resler

back, especially since Resler has played softball since she was five years old. "My sister played, and my dad and mom both coached softball," Resler said. "I just kept it in the family." She came to CSU after turning down offers from several Kansas schools. The Lady Bronchos' winning tradition and high regard for Head Coach Gerry Pinkston were reasons for Resler's selection. Another accomplishment for Resler is that she will graduate on time, in four years. When she first came to CSU she was a journalism major, but later changed her major to political science. Resler said an eventual law de-

gree with hopes of becoming a criminal prosecutor are her longrange goals. "When I took an American Government class, my political science teacher (Sharon Carney) talked about careers and I was impressed with her," Resler said. "She really inspired me to change my mind. She is a very intelligent person and that impressed me too." The Lady Bronchos are currently 14-12-1, with five of those losses by one run and two by two runs. Resler believes the team must raise its intensity level to get back on the winning track. "If we play every game the way we should, we could beat almost anybody," Resler said. "There are times when nothing goes right and the intensity level drops. That's a problem with a lot of teams when they lose. It's just intensity level and not as much skill level. "When we know we have to play good and we're up for a game, we usually win. It takes everybody. One player with a low intensity or having a bad game can turn the whole game around. "We are close as a team and therefor I believe we feel each other's low points more than some teams. That also goes for high points too. If the pitcher is throwing well and one player hits good, then the whole team just falls in behind."

CSU women win net dual By Bill Kramer Sports Editor In sweeping all six singles matches, the Central State University women's tennis team poured forth an 8-1 beating on Cowley County (Texas) Junior College April 4 at the CSU tennis courts.

HIRING Continued from page 1

The two new coaches were hired to replace two coaches who resigned. The new coaches will be paid $65,000 collectively, while the resigning coaches were paid $55,370. Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Clyde Jacob said coaches are hired as coaches first and faculty second, so timing for the hiring of coaches is independent of academic hiring. "Coaches carry the rank.of instructor because they do teach some classes, like weight training, but they are recruited by the athletic director," Jacob said. "We tried to bring about an earlier hiring practice this year, working with the suggestions of the faculty senate and others. For this year, the faculty hiring is occuring in two phases," Jacob said. "Phase one included 19 faculty," Jacob said. "These were replacements for retirements and resignations and some temporary positions made permanent," Jacob said. The advertising for these positions appeared in the Chronicle of Higher Education Feb. 7, said Terry May, assistant vice president for academic affairs. Wagnon said the advertising for recruiting coaches began before Christmas. Phase two of faculty hiring was begun as the budget development process began. Ten faculty are included in this group, Jacob said. "As the budget was developed we began to add faculty in conjunction with what we could afford," Jacob said. "We sought input from the de-

AID

partment heads and deans of the various colleges and formed a list of phase-two positions less than eight hours ago. It's hot off the press," Jacob said. May said four of the 10 positions in phase two are a result of resignations, five resulting from retirements and one because of demand, a new position. The projected date for advertising phase-two faculty positions is May 1, May said. Faculty senate proposal 89-15, approved by Dr. Lillard in January, states "initial advertisements of faculty positions be placed in the fall semester prior to the academic year in which a person is employed. As long as funds to fill a position are not assured, such advertisements should include a statement to the effect that the position opening is announced pending budgetary approval." The proposal also states: "By advertising positions late in the sring semester the most qualified candidates have already made job corrunittments for the next year, since most universities announce faculty openings in the fall semester.

"By waiting until late spring to advertise openings, CSU is putting itself at a competitive disadvantage. This is particulary unfortunate because CSU's entry salaries for doctorates are very competitive in many areas, and would enable the university to be an effective competitor if it advertised positions in a timely manner," according to the proposal. "We are working for more careful and more thorough evaluation of the hiring process and to advertise sooner," Jacob said. Dr. J.W. Weatherford, teacher education department chairman, said administrative responsibilities have increased in his department while faculty has not. "We've taken on additional responsibilities without new faculty

or staff," Weatherford said. "We lost Dr. (Don) Hall, half time, to the alumni office and earlier, a full-time teacher began to do the certification, so we lost another half. These were replaced with adjuncts, but when the adjuncts were cut last spring, we lost those," Weatherford said. Dr. Thieron Harrison, biology department chairman, said he feels the situation is improving. "I feel the administration has provided support in this area in recent years," Harrison said. The faculty in the biology department is 15/2 full-time faculty currently. It was 17 in 1981, but only 14 in 1987, Harrison said. "We're down l'/2 now," Harrison said, "but that's up two from 1987."

prepared by independent auditors," Schutten said. "Based on the report and the program review, we are complying with university, state and federal statutory regulations," Schutten said. CSU disbursed about $3.6 million through campus-based programs in 1988-89, Schutten said. Fugett said the the audits can be looked at from two different angles. "First, it means keeping our toes on the p's and q's of federal regulations. Second, it means a hassle to us, in terms of staff time, because we have to pull our records and to explain our decisions and actions," Fugett said.
