President's Partners sets up request program with cash awards

By Iris Knight Staff Writer The UCO Foundation through the President's Partners has implemented a program to generate ideas from UCO employees to improve campus efficiency.

The Employee Suggestion Program (ESP) will recognize creative ideas with monetary rewards and certificates of appreciation.

Under the program, UCO employees can fill out a form and submit it to the committee for consideration.

Cash awards of $50 to $500 will be given monthly to those who come up with the best ideas.

An additional award of $1,000 will be given to the top three ideas of the year.

Those chosen for the awards will be notified within 60 days and will receive a letter of appreciation to be forwarded to the employees' supervisor and put into the employees' files.

A 13-member committee will judge the entries for the most implementable and positive suggestion submitted. It will also present the awards.

The committee will represent a cross-section of university employees. Co-chairpersons of the committee will be Dr. Fred Grosz, chairman of the science department, Dr. Herb Giles, professor of marketing and Dr. Farrell Rosson, project coordinator for the Physical Plant.

"We hope that people will submit legitimate suggestions that will help the running of UCO, anything from even how to change a light bulb," said Grosz.

Last-minute tax help available

By John Cleveland Student Writer For those who have not filed their taxes, the Edmond Public Library, in cooperation with the American Association of Retired Persons and Voluntary Income Tax Assistance (VITA), will be offering help in filing income taxes.

"The American Association of Retired Persons will be offering voluntary help to the elderly from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

VITA will also be offering income tax advice on Tuesdays from 7 to 9 p.m. and Saturdays from 1 to 3 p.m.," said Steven Foster, circulation clerk at the library.

"Aside from probably getting a tax return, students who file their own taxes are also getting acquainted with the gov-

ernment and how they do things," said John Carr, a certified public accountant.

Outside from that, students don't receive any type of tax breaks, he said.

ESP's not smart

R

emember the old, red suggestion box that used to sit on the counter in your high school office?

Well, UCO has finally acquired one of its own and it has RED written all over it—the dark red ink of censorship.

The UCO Foundation, through President's Partners, has started an Employee Suggestion Program (ESP) to try to generate inventive ideas from UCO employees to help improve things around campus.

In a letter to all UCO employees, ESP encouraged all workers to fill out the two-page application and submit implementable and positive ideas to the 13-member committee for judging.

This baker's dozen will sift through the suggestions and determine which among them would merit a cash award. The letter said ESP intends to pay $50 to $500 for superior ideas.

Red? Where's the red?

The letter included a lengthy explanation of how to make a suggestion. It also listed a number of suggestions that would not be appropriate to submit, such as: 1. ESP will not accept criticism of a condition or a person.

Does the ESP committee think the applicants will suggest that President Nigh be fired or that the Boldt Construction Company may be doing more harm to UCO than good?

2. ESP will not allow for requests of changes in pay or benefits.

Does ESP honestly believe that any suggestion to the committee may get an increase in faculty or student salaries?

3. ESP will not take ideas having to do with illegal activities.

Is ESP afraid that employees may suggest overthrowing the state government or maybe bombing the State Regents' office to acquire the funding UCO has been shorted—like a band of uneducated renegades?

The employees at UCO are not children playing in an adult world who need constant supervision. Nor do they need a ruler whacked over their knuckles to be taught positive thinking.

Here is a free one, ESP. Accept all types of suggestions—positive and negative. The free flow of thinking that this will encourage may get you the constructive performance you are seeking.

Don't put a vise around the employees' minds.

Since ESP is asking for employees' help in this way, allow them the freedom to think their own way.

ESP can glean more ideas if they will only accept what comes—good or bad.

International student lauds writing lab

I

am an international student who has experienced much improvement in writing skills since I started going to the UCO Writing Enhancement Laboratory.

Through this special channel of The Vista, I would like to take this opportunity to share my experience.

First, I would like to provide you with some basic information about the Writing Lab. Students can get help from some zealous

volunteers who consist of UCO professors and graduate students. All of them are qualified and patient. They use computers, tapes and variable teaching materials to help you get through your writing problems. They have tutoring systems set up by Dr. Betty Jo Knight from which you can obtain full attention on your specific problem areas.

The most impressive thing is that all of this help is free.

As a living example, I am not

only overcoming my writing problem, but I am also improving my writing overall.

Therefore, I sincerely recommend that all of you sign up and join us no matter whether you are native-speaking students or international students. The Writing Lab is a good place to stick around!

would like to comment on the letter "Alternative to Gun Control Suggested" in the March 30 '95, issue of The Vista. This letter is to clarify some of the misconceptions that Mr. C.G. Hamilton put in his letter.

1) The young man with a baseball bat that was shot by police recently was not breaking and entering. He was attempting to attack his mother and sister in their own home. His own mother and sister called 911 because they feared for their own lives.

In fact, these two women were so afraid that they had found it necessary to put furniture in front of the door he was trying to beat down. The police officer shot him only as a last resort because the young man turned

I

on him. This occurred after the officer had tried several times to get him to lay the bat down and come out of the house peacefully.

The young man became so enraged at the officer's attempts to stop his activities he decided to attack the officer, and that is when he got shot. Was the officer supposed to wait until the young man had hurt him or the two women before he acted?

2) The local doctor that was recently shot by police officers.

The doctor was shot by officers after he entered the Oklahoma City Police Department's headquarters building and opened fire with a handgun. The location of the incident is a place wliae many non-police personnel work and conduct business.

Were the officers supposed to wait until the good doctor had seriously injured one of these innocent bystanders or a fellow officer? The facts, in both of these incidents, are fairly straightforward, and there is no doubt in my mind or the minds of the shooting review boards who cleared the officers of any blame, that the actions of the officers involved were warranted and acceptable beyond any reasonable doubt. These law officers are a part of a group of people who risk their lives every day and, unfortunately, have to use deadly force to protect themselves and the citizens of the community.

"Friday, we do ice-breaking type of things. Saturday morning, early and late afternoon sessions, the professors present literature," said Dr. Allen Rice, assistant English professor.

On Saturday night, a bonfire will be built, and students are encouraged to bring poetry to read.

The weekend is not limited to learning about literature. In the past, students and professors have played Trivial Pursuit and feather ball (a game in which the players try to keep the ball from touching the ground).

The cost for the retreat is $30, and it pays for food and lodging for the weekend. The cost for members of the English Society is $25.

Easter holiday a festival of 'deliverance,' new life

By Farzana Razak Staff Writer With the bunnies and the eggs. it's that time of the year again. It's spring, and Easter is here.

The Christian festival of Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This spring festival originated from the Jewish Passover, which commemorates Israel's deliverance and release from Egypt's bondage.

"A number of religions, at spring season, fear that the earth would end. Then seasons change and they would think that the earth was rejuvenated," said Dr. Margaret Flansburg, associate professor of humanities and philosophy.

SAT improvement claims ruled unsatisfacto SAT improvement claims used as advertising for The Princeton Review, a college test preparation company, were recently ruled unsatisfactory.

Kaplan, another test preparation company, requested an evaluation of The Princeton Review's scoring methods.

"Kaplan wanted tests to be comparable by using the same methodology as they are," said Heather Jennings, director of the Princeton Review.

The panel was composed of three lawyers, one selected by each party and the third selected by both. It ruled that Princeton Review can no longer advertise the SAT score improvement claims used on several thousand marketing pieces over the past decade.

However, Kaplan's national SAT study, done by Price Waterhouse, was found to be acceptable by the panel.

Therefore the panel ruled that both companies will use the Price Waterhouse methodology in determining the scores.

"The studies and changes that have been made are beneficial to us. It has

not affected our business. It has not really changed in what we were able to produce," said Jennings.

Roper Starch Worldwide was hired

by Princeton Review to conduct new studies comparing the methods of both companies. 40

The Malaysian Student Association (MSA) is sponsoring Malaysian Night, a fund-raiser benefiting the Mau and Mei Foundation and the Edmond Association for Retarded Citizens (EARC) at 6:30 p.m. April 22 at Pegasus Theatre.

"We have Malaysian Night every year, but this time we are doing it special as a fund-raiser," said Nicholas Lim, program manager for the event and MSA treasurer.

The Mau and Mei Foundation is an organization set up to help with the medical and travel expenses of the families of two Malaysian students who were in a car accident last year.

The change to a fund-raiser inspired the night's theme, "We care for everyone." A theme expressed through the donations presented to the charities the night of the event. The money will be divided equally between the organizations.

The night will include cultural foods, singing, dancing, martial arts and a fashion show.

The singing performances will come from Oklahoma City University, Southern Nazarene University, UCO and the Overseas Christian Fellowship Choir.

The program will have some traditional Malaysian, Chinese, Indian and modern dance.

Two forms of martial arts will be performed;Tai Chi Sward will be executed by LaiKuan Chan of UCO and Silat, a Malaysian martial art, will be performed by a group from the University of Oklahoma chapter of MSA. A fashion show with traditional and contemporary costumes will also be a part of the night's events.

"The Malaysian traditional costume is very colorful, because we have so many ethnic groups," said Lim. Tickets for the event are $6 per person. The live entertainment will start at 7:30 p.m.

Flesh-eating bacteria kills woman

NEW YORK (AP) — A 71-year-old woman died of infection caused by flesh-eating bacteria that entered her body when she nicked herself shaving her legs.

City Health Commissioner Margaret Hamburg confirmed the cause of death, but said the public should not become alarmed that the disease, formally known as necrotizing fasciitis, is spreading unchecked. The woman, whose name was not released, died last month.

Another local death, that of an 8-year-old boy who died April 2, is also suspected of being caused by the bacteria but tests to confirm the link have not been completed.

The disease is not new but it has gotten widespread attention in the past year because 11 people died in an outbreak in England. The Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta estimated 500 to 1,500 Americans are infected each year.

Daughter's organs donated to Israel BEERSHEBA, Israel (AP) — The heart, lungs. liver and kidneys of an American student killed in a suicide bomb attack were donated to six Israelis after her father decided he wanted part of her to stay in Israel.

Alisa Flatow, 20, was taken off life support a day after an Islamic Jihad militant drove a van loaded with explosives into the bus she was riding in the Gaza Strip. A piece of shrapnel went through her skull; she never regained consciousness.

The heart of Miss Flatow, an Orthodox Jew. was successfully transplanted to a 56-year-old man who had been waiting more than a year for one, said Dr. Bernardo Vidneh. head of cardiac surgery at Beilinson Hospital outside Tel Aviv.

Her liver was donated to a 23-year-old man, and her lungs and kidneys to four different patients. Her corneas were donated to an eye bank.

At Tel Aviv's lchilov Hospital idoctors were transplanting Alisa's pancreas and one kidney in an eight-hour operation to a 42-year-old diabetic woman with kidney failure who waited 20 years for the organs.

Procrastination may be linked more to a need for instant gratification than to laziness, report shows

By Cynthia Chung

Staff Writer All of us, at one time or another, have put off until tomorrow what should be done today. Some people, however, have more of a knack postponing the inevitable, the uncertain or the uncomfortable.

Jan Chapel, coordinator of UCO's counseling services, said there are several reasons why people procrastinate.

"It could be something they do not like to do, or they could be (exhibiting) passive-aggressive behavior—that is, showing anger by putting off doing something for someone else," said Chapel.

Many procrastinators may also be perfectionists, she said.

People who procrastinate are often afraid of life and what it entails. They are fearful of change, growth, failure and success, stated an article in the women's magazine Redbook (May 1995).

"They expect too much from themselves and their family and

Start to realize that (you) do not have to be perfect; that human beings make mistakes. Try not to beat (yourself) up over small things.

—Jan Chapel

Coordinator, UCO counseling services friends. They are afraid of trying new things—of taking risks.

Their fear pervades their lifestyle," said Chapel.

"It's harder for them to be happy because of their high expectations," she said.

Procrastinators have certain characteristics that set them apart from those who simply like to think their actions through.

"They (procrastinators) say they would do something but not get it done or they would not

participate for fear of being wrong," said Chapel.

They also have an insatiable need to be fulfilled instantly.

"They believe that when they finally get around to doing something, they'll get (satisfying) results," stated the Redbook article.

In the article, procrastinators are labeled as inflexible, lazy or inordinately apprehensive of making a right decision. They also tend to blame other people and other things (like the weather) for their tardiness or inertia.

Chapel has some timely advice to offer to chronic procrastinators: "Start to realize that (you) do not have to be perfect; that human beings make mistakes.

Try not to beat (yourself) up over small things.

"Break down a big project into small parts—don't become overwhelmed by it," she said.

The most "compelling" reason to stop procrastinating is one proposed by the author of the article: "Life is short, folks, time is too precious to be wasted."

Bishop slated for archbishop post

LONDON (AP) — A Church of England bishop targeted by a gay "outing" campaign was appointed as archbishop of York, the church's second-highest post.

The Right Rev. David Hope, the bishop of London, last month disclosed he had come under pressure from Outrage!, a group that encourages homosexuals to publicly declare their sexual orientation.

Hope, 54, said he had lived a celibate life and chose not to describe himself as either homosexual or heterosexual. "For some the area is slightly grayer. That's the sort of area I find myself in," he said.

A leader of the traditionalist Anglo-Catholic wing of the church, Hope was a prominent opponent of the ordination of women, which began last year. He has permitted them to be ordained in his diocese but has declined to participate personally.

Prime Minister John Major chose Hope from two candidates nominated by the church. At York, Hope will succeed the Most Rev. John Habgood, who retires Aug. 31.

Veggies may aid in immunization

WASHINGTON (AP) — Genetically engineered fruits and vegetables that make the body immune to contagious diseases may one day replace some vaccination shots, according to a study published Tuesday.

A protein gene that creates immunity to hepatitis B has been transferred to potato plants, and mice fed the special spud developed antibodies against the disease, researchers reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The scientists said that it may be possible to manipulate other vegetables and fruits to immunize against other diseases.

Experimenters at Texas A&M and the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, N.Y., said they transferred a gene that makes an antigen against hepatitis B from yeast to tobacco and then to potatoes.

Hugh S. Mason, a Texas A&M co-author of the study, said mice fed the genetically engineered potato developed an immune system resistance to the disease. He said the experiment shows that it may be possible one day to grow fruit or vegetables that carry vaccination genes against other diseases.

`Swing Time Again' rouses alumni spirit 99

By Nicki Cormier Staff Writer

Twenty-nine UCO alumni reminisced about their favorite professors, food rationing and World War II during a round-table discussion April 7.

The discussion, The Way We Were: Life in the Forties," was part of UCO Alumni Association's "Swing Time Again" celebration of the `40s held at UCO April 7-9.

It was facilitated by Dr. Richard Peters, professor of history at UCO. During this time, campus rules were strict. There was a no smoking rule and no one could wear a high school letter on campus.

Slacks were considered unfeminine, except for one extremely cold winter. Even then, you weren't allowed to wear them in the library, said one female alumni member.

There was much discussion about school fees during the 1940s.

One member said he paid $23 for 32 hours during his freshman year, which he paid in four installments.

Another member recalled she paid a flat fee of $17 for 20 hours.

"Even so, when you went over to Thompson's, you cried at the price of the book, and when you took it back at the end of the semester, you cried again at the money they gave you for it," she said Many alumni remembered their favorite professors. One of the most talked about was a history professor named Lucy J. Hampton.

"Lucy J. asked the boys who were going to war if they would bring her back souvenirs for a museum she had started," recalled Paul Forsythe.

Charles Kincannon, a fellow member of Hampton's history class, said, "I was never known by my name as she always called

me Mr. Buchanan."

Lucalia Aston Hinson said, "She was tough. I was used to getting As, and I didn't make an A in that class so I put off taking the second part until my last semester. But I managed an A that time."

Many of the alumni had strong memories of WW II. They discussed having to bring food rations when they enrolled in school.

Mary Helen Lillard recalled the student from Gotibo, Okla., who was the only student on campus with a car.

"She got her gas rations from her parents' farm. It was the lone car parked outside Murdaugh Hall," she said.

Everyone agreed that there was a strong commitment to the war effort. Although most students couldn't afford to buy war bonds, they bought war stamps instead, they said.

Married 53 years, Ted and Murlene Anderson met during the wife's freshman year.

She said she recalled shoes being rationed during those years.

"I was so glad when Ted went into the Navy, I got his shoe rations."

Many alumni remembered what they were doing on Pearl Harbor day.

One member said, "We had gone down to Pink Park to picnic and swing on the swings. We received the news when we got back."

Bettye Jane Johnston, editor for The Vista at the time, said she was in her room writing an editorial.

"Someone came in and told me that the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor, and I immediately changed the editorial I was writing to one about Pearl Harbor," she said.

Several members told stories about the military moving into Murdaugh Hall.

"We had to have military contracts to support the campus so that the faculty could get paid." said one member.

One woman remembered fellow student Mildred Jacobs.

"I think she invented the original U-Haul, although she didn't patent it.

"When we moved out of Murdaugh, she hitched a little red wagon up to her bicycle and offered it to several other people in the dormitory. She was the official mover with her bicycle and that little red wagon," she said.

One significant addition to the campus that everyone remembers during the war years was the YChapel of Song, said Mary Helen Lillard.

Don Powers said he was the president of YMCA when Dr. Jessie Newby Ray started pushing for the Y-Chapel.

Another member said, "It was her project, and she wanted it right here on campus—she never gave up. She was responsible for the YChapel coming into being."

From résumés to research, Internet 'wandering' pays off

By John Clanton Staff Writer

Being able to get information from colleges anywhere in the world about any subject imaginable and the ability to send out résumés are a few of the advantages students might find in the Internet.

In Sharon Fisher's book, Riding the Internet Highway, she describes the Internet as a huge network of computers that communicate with each other.

This network is so vast and covers so many different subjects, it would be nearly impossible for one person to keep up with everything, said Dr. Weldon Wilson, professor in the UCO physics department.

By taking advantage of all the subjects the Internet has to offer, students can use the Internet to help them research subjects.

and today, anyone who has a computer and a modem can subscribe to one of the many On-Line Network Services that are available.

Although UCO has many computer labs, the physics department is the only one with public access to the Internet.

The math department has computers that will access the Internet, but students must pay for an account or use the Internet for a class project.

Several departments however, including the library and the cornputer center, have plans to offer the Internet to students in the near future.

The physics computer lab is able to offer several students at a time a place on the Internet.

The physics computer lab, which subscribes to the Netscape On-Line Network Service, is open to any interested student on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Tuesday and Thursday from 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.

Golfers place 9th

Bronchos open crucial LSC homestand today

UCO finishes 40 strokes behind Air Force Academy in Arizona tournament

By Mike Erwin

Sports Editor The Central Oklahoma golf team finished in ninth place Tuesday at the Grand Canyon/Thunderbirds Invitational in Goodyear, Ariz.

The Bronchos shot rounds of 309, 312 and 308 en route to finishing at 929, 40 strokes behind the winning team from the Air Force Academy.

Medalist honors went to Southern Utah's Tom Johnson who fired a three-round twoover-par 218.

After two straight tournaments in which ninth-ranked UCO produced the medalist winners, the Bronchos' best individual finish was 23rd.

Dustin York and David Hines tied for that spot with each shooting a three-round 229 on the par 72 course at the Palm Valley Golf Club.

Hines, a senior from Dewey had rounds of 77,77 and 75.

Two weeks ago, he was the medalist at the Fort Worth National Collegiate Championships.

The Bronchos' Jason Freeman tied for 34th after shooting a 74, 78 and 80 for a 16-over-par total of 232.

Jon Lee finished in 61st place at 24 over par with a 240 and Sean Lee finished in 78th place at 31 over par with a 247.

Sports Writer The next few days will mark a pivotal point in the 1995 baseball season for the Central Oklahoma Bronchos who are trying to avoid a disappointing finish to a season that had so much promise.

UCO will face West Texas A&M for a five-game home series starting tomorrow at 3 p.m. with a single nine-inning game. Then the two will square off for doubleheaders on Friday at 2 p.m. and Saturday at 1 p.m.

Despite returning 11 starters from last year's 39-14 squad that won the Lone Star Conference crown, The 15-20 Bronchos are currently last in the LSC and are riding a six game losing streak (prior to yesterday's home game with Cameron). They have lost 16 of their last 20 games with 15 conference games remaining and 18 overall.

West Texas A&M is 19-19 and 3-7 in the LSC and is currently tied for fourth in the conference with Abilene Christian.

UCO was the pre-season favorite to win the LSC crown.

The Bronchos may be without pitchers Greg Hall (2-3) and Loan Dollins (3-3) for the series because of injuries. Hall has an earned run average of 3.55 (second on the team) and Dollins carries an ERA of 3.60 (third). Designated hitter Rodney Foster also might not play because of an injury.

Netters on quest for conference championships

By Mike Erwin Sports Editor

The Central Oklahoma tennis teams will be competing for the Lone Star Conference Championship on Friday and Saturday when they travel to Portales, N.M. Ranked sixth in the Midwest Region, the UCO men enter the tournament with a 5-7 duals record.

The Bronchos are led by their No. 1 singles player, Charles Bornman of Bloemfontein, South Africa.

Bornman has yet to lose a singles match this spring and is expected to move up in the rank-

ings after going 4-0 in last week's Midwest Region Duals.

Bornman was ranked ninth in the region before knocking off No. 1 Robby Scott of Abilene Christian, No. 7 Jason White of Cameron and No. 8 Pankaj Monga of Southwest Baptist.

The Bronchos' No. 1 doubles team, Bornman and Junior White, is ranked eighth in the region.

After going 2-2 at last week's regional duals, the women's team will take a 5-12 record into the LSC Championships.

With just five members on the team, the Lady Bronchos will be forced to default one singles match in each dual and play only

Keating will speak on the "importance of the oil and gas industry for Oklahoma, both in the past and in the future," said Lynda Poe, executive assistant to the director.

Historians recognize 1895 as the founding year of Oklahoma's energy industry. During that year, two Kansas oilmen, James M. Guffey and J.H. Galey, signed

their lease with the Cherokees which opened the territory and later the state of Oklahoma to oil and gas production.

Former professor 'devotes' life to Oklahoma legend

By Tressa Lister Student Writer

Dr. Reba Collins, a former journalism professor at UCO. returned to teaching last week in a seminar about one of Oklahoma's famous forefathers.

The seminar examined the life and writings of Will Rogers based on research done by Collins over the past 30 years.

Collins said she saw Will Rogers' statue in a Washington D.C. memorial in 1965, and her interest peaked. She then went to the New York City World Fair where she heard a recording of his voice and saw people from all over the world laughing at his jokes.

Collins said she then returned to Oklahoma where she had been working on her doctoral dissertation at Oklahoma State University (OSU) for the past year. She threw away her work and started over, for she hadfound her passion: Will Rogers.

"Someone once asked me what my passion was before I found Will Rogers and I told them Central State University (CSU)," Collins said.

Her research, Collins said, has taken her all over the United States, allowed her to become good friends with all three Rogers children and introduced her to friends and admirers of Will Rogers worldwide.

"Joel McCrea, actor, once said, 'Everything Will Rogers touched he added a little glory to.' That is what I feel Will Rogers has done to my life," Collins said.

She combined guest speakers,

movies about and starring Will Rogers and excerpts of Rogers' writings, and her own, to give students an understanding of how great an impact Will Rogers had on people's lives.

Guest speakers were Steve Lilli, who owns his own public relations firm, and Marla Peek, granddaughter of Collins.

"The seminar was very interesting. I had no idea that Will Rogers was such a cool guy," said Sharon Hastings, freshman at UCO.

nization for students to belong to," she said.

PBL is the secondary school version of Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA), an organization for high school students, Kearns said.

"PBL offers the student participants the opportunity to build a network with other business students in the state as well as with professionals in the business community," she said.

The University of Central Oklahoma chapter of PBL was started in 1973. Kearns became its sponsor in Nov. 1991.

PBL will represent UCO at the State FBLA Conference April 20-22 at the Medallion 4 Hotel in Oklahoma City.

Yale senior arrested for fa Isifying record s to get aid NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — One month before graduation, a Yale senior has been expelled and charged with larceny for allegedly falsifying his admission application.

Lon Grammer, 25, was accused of using falsified high school and college transcripts

and bogus recommendations to transfer to Yale two years ago.

Once at Yale, he received more than $41,000 in grants from the university and federal aid programs, the arrest affidavit said. He also received nearly $20,000 in loans.

Grammer apparently put police on his trail, saying Grammer had bragged about getting into Yale with fake transcripts, the affidavit said.

Grammer, from Brentwood, Calif., was arrested last week by university police at his dormitory room. He was released, and

his arraignment today in Superior Court was rescheduled for later this month. Grammer was charged with one count of larceny for allegedly accepting the financial aid under false pretenses.

Grammer wouldn't comment.

Restrictions and Concerns For University Use Of Student Technology Fee (STF)

•

1. A University-wide Student Technology Fee Committee shall be a permanent university standing committee consisting of no less than fifteen members represented by students, faculty, and administrators. Following guidelines for committee selection these positions shall be appointed to serve: the Vice-President of Student Services shall serve as Chair of the Committee; the controller: the computing center director; and representatives including: a user representative of the student services division, a library representative, a faculty senate member, representatives from each of the undergraduate colleges. and a minimum of six student members. This University STF Committee approves allocations of all STF funds, may reapportion STF funds as necessary to support student needs, and will provide procedures for processing of STF funding requests.

•

•

2. All administrative departments and all undergraduate colleges whose technologies are supported by the STF shall annually submit a plan for expenditure priorities to the STF Committee. Each unit shall establish a representative body to ensure that the needs of all students they serve are met. All participating members of this body must sign this annual report indicating support of the plan or otherwise indicate what their dissenting views may be. Alternative suggestions may be submitted by individuals not officially representing these units. Final approval to allocate funds or to reallocate unused funds is the responsibility of the University STF Committee.

• .•

- F

'1i •

3 All administrative departments and all undergraduate colleges whose technologies are supported by STF funds shall submit an annual accounting report of STF funded services, usage, and expenditures for information consolidation and dissemination. Discrepancies from the previous year's annual plan for expenditure must be explained, and if in violation of STF policy, continued support may be jeopardized. The VISTA, and anyone seeking to view the technology progress made on campus due to STF funding, shall be provided the submitted annual plans and reports as well as any reports issued by the University STF Committee.

4.To provide quality of technology service to students, it is necessary to maintain compatibility among telecommunications and computer systems on campus.

Therefore, it is the responsibility of the Computer Center to create and maintain communications standards. All systems funded for student use from the STF funds are required to meet these standards.

•

4

'7 7 • ;4

5.During the initial two years of the STF implementation, the Telecommunications and Computer Center staffs will have a heavy workload placed on them. Success of this plan depends on their guidance, involvement, and implementation of a campus network. In the setting of University priorities, continued support for the campus network is required.

6.The goals and proposed architecture specified in this document are intended to span many years. However, the adjoining spreadsheets provide specifications for only two years of new and revised student services. During this two year period, product substitutions are allowed only when more effective products become available, and only with prior approval from the University STF Committee.

How The $4 per Credit Student Technology Fee Applies Most courses that currently charge a lab fee for computer and laboratory equipment use (falling within the allowed categories in item 7 of the "Restrictions' section) will no longer have a separate charge. All UCO courses will be encouraged to include computer use

•

Otherwise, the University STF Committee should follow the proposed allocations for this two-year period, with one exception: if demand for off-campus access becomes greater than anticipated and it is necessary to provide more ports (specifically, to purchase modems and telephone lines) to access Universiry services, then the STF Committee. by a two-thirds vote, can reallocate funds to resolve this situation. After the two-year period, keeping in mind the original goals of this plan and the support provided to UCO students, the University STF Committee has the continuing responsibility to oversee and prioritize plans for future services and funding allocations.

Courses charging fees for equipment and supplies not falling within the allowed categones are not entitled to use Student Technology Fee (STF) funds and will need to continue charging current fees.

7.The following is a list of currently allowed expenditures: What's Allowed

Computer software peripherals and computer supplies for students.

Computer furniture for students.

When a course requires the use of an excessive amount of allowed equipment and supplies, the college may request an additional fee be charged for that course following University guidelines and with STF Committee Approval.

What's Not Allowed

Computer peripherals software and computer supplies for anyone other than students.

Remodeling of buildings.

Multi media for students and student classrooms. Multi-media for faculty and administrative offices and facilities that are not openly available to students.

Networking costs for student computing. Networking costs unrelated to student use & equipment.

In addition, at times, the University might wish to offer new or enhancea services to students. When a service is either too expensive to be supported

by STF funds or is of interest to a select community of students, then it may be subsidized or offered on a pay-per-use basis. An example of this type of service .n the current proposal is article retrieval using fax-on-aemand.

Personnel costs and training materials to support Personnel costs and training materials not the above computer services. associated with the above allowed services.

Equipment for instrumentation labs used by Supplies for instrumentation & and openly available to students. non-computer labs

.e Limitations of Student Use

$4 PER CREDIT HOUR TECHNOLOGY FEE PRIORITIES - YEAR 1

1 The services provided by a Student Technology Fee (STF) are for use only by currently enrolled students.

PROPOSED SERVICES LIBRARY Hardware for Infoshare/Paclink Infoshare software for networking data bases Site licenses for networking data bases such as Psychlit, Eric, Cinahal, Business Periodicals Index and other data bases Existing maintenance for CD ROM on line data bases

2. Use of these services is subject to the student completing an "Agreement of Conduct and Use" form.

3. Limits or restrictions on use of various services will be determined in order to stay within budget and to equitably allow use among all students.

4. Services provided as a resuit of the STF are contingent on adequate funding, product availability, and campus construction projects. Some services may be introduced in phased steps in order to start the majority of service as soon as possible. The STF does not fund the completion of the campus communication infrastructure; however, the implementation of some STF services depends on the network's completion.

5.The amounts budgeted for the first two years are subject to change depending on the actual amounts collected. Proportional decreases will be made across the board for any shortfall. Money in excess of budget will be distributed as follows: 50% to colleges, and 50% to be distributed by the STF committee between two needs. First, the STF Committee should allocate additional funds to increase the number of modems and lines for off-campus access. Second, after consideration of the first, any remaining excess funds may be used • • • to offset some E & G expenses for student technology already provided by the University. .-
