District attorney debates balance of justice By Jimmy Hyde Staff Writer

"Justice, is it really balanced?"was the topic debated at the University of Central Oklahoma by Oklahoma County District Attorney Robert Macy and State of Oklahoma Department of Corrections Programs Administrator Arnold Waggoner. The debate held in the Liberal Arts' Pegasus Theatre was sponsored by the UCO chapter of Delta Tau Chi. Dr. Otto Schweizer, professor of criminal justice at UCO and moderator of the debate, said in his opening statement the debate will reflect the personal philosophy regarding the balance between the rights of inmates versus victims and society in general. The rules for the debate were unorthodox in that the debate was intended to stimulate audience participation in a non-antagonistic manner. Schweizer called the debate an "Otto style." Each participant was given five minutes to make an opening statement on his personal philosophy. Sixteen issues were mentioned that Schweizer had culled from articles, class discussions and other colleagues, followed IF See DEBATE, Page 4

Regents add new degree requirements By Roy Howe Staff Writer

A college-level mathematics course, six credit hours of humanities and a laboratory accompanying a science class are new requirements to face all students earning a baccalaureate degree at the state' s universities. Currently, the University of Central Oklahoma demands five credit hours of humanities, no laboratory with science classes, and only one-third of the programs require a mathematics course. The additional requirements were mandated by the State Regents for Higher Edu-

cation at its regular meeting April 15. The new requirements will not affect students currently pursuing a degree atUCO. Only first-time students admitted this fall semester will face the changes in the general education requirements. "Existing students already enrolled in existing programs will virtually be unimpacted by this policy change," said Jerry Legere, assistant vice president for Enrollment Management and Registrar. The changes are to assure that all colleges and universities throughout the state require the same 37-hour general education core, thus allowing easy transferability. This is a move that UCO administrators were in the process of. "We have felt the need for a long time to

reexamine our own general education requirements, and it has been an issue of discussion for a long time," said Clyde Jacob, vice president for Academic Affairs. "General education (at UCO) has not been revised in many years. It's been in need for revision," Jacob said. "We needed to reexamine what is appropriate for a well- rounded general education program," Jacob said. University administrators stalled completion of their own general studies revision because they knew the State Regents were addressing the issue. "We've basically been delaying because we knew there was some development of the general education program at the state level," Jacob said.

Currently, UCO has three versions of required general education courses which total from 44 to 47 credit hours depending on the program. The changes affecting new students this fall at UCO will not increase the number of credit hours required in general education courses, said Albert Lynd, associate vice president for Academic Planning. A student could be out of school for up to two years and stay within the general education requirements of their current program, Legere said. "After two years out, then they would probably fall under the new requirements," he said. Jacob said he will work with the faculty and staff on these changes.

Bad guys don't just wear black

T

t used to be true that a person could tell the good guys from

the bad guys by the color of the hats they wore. But not anymore, good and bad can appear the same. People wear hats of all sorts, and some wear no hat at all. The clothes people wear, the lengths of their hair, the cars they drive and the sizes of their bank accounts are arbitrary facts describing modern society. These things tell other people absolutely nothing about a person's personality, only about that person's station in society. Times have changed, but people's ways of thinking have not. People still judge others by their appearances, though they have bones of their own they wish to hide. There are people who believe they have an uncanny ability to tell the intentions of others by looking into their eyes, the windows to the soul, but:, this simply cannot be true. Everyone possesses the capacity for love, hate, cruelty, friendship and hopefully, rational thought. The dichotomy is purely that of the human condition. Let's face facts, life is not black and white. Shades of gray, and hues from hats of all colors are showing their brilliance, and their absences of, in all our lives. Politicians become thieves, and beggars become the saviors of human life. The roles people play and the acts they perform do not always coincide. From the "GQ," representatives of virtue and honor, to "mass murderers," individuals wear masks or hats in an attempt to bury their bones, who they really are, and portray society's ideal models. But, many fail under the pressure of its relentless scrutiny. Nobody is what they appear to be. It doesn't matter who a person is or what hat if any he or she chooses to wear, society will seek out any differences and find a label to fit. No one can expect to meet those unreal social expectations, not even the bad guys who aren't wearing their black hats.

Corrections In the April 26 issue of The Vista, it was printed that Gordon Smith was incarcerated forarmed robbery. It should have read that he was incarcerated for theft and embezzlement. We regret the error.

Government should declare cease-fire in war on drugs, allow country to heal

p

rohibition as a solution is

an absolute failure in its purported purpose of limiting the social and financial costs of drug abuse on society. Indeed, prohibition has succeeded in accomplishing the exact opposite. The cost of fighting the drug war has far exceeded any possible cost of the legalized use of drugs, whether cost is figured in dollars or lives. Not only has prohibition done nothing to curb drug abuse, it has increased the use, availability and intensity of the substances. The same problems were found with prohibition of alcohol years earlier. Prohibitional logic is contradictory to the basic law of supply and demand. Natural market laws are in effect even when the federal government contradicts them with its own laws. A basic economic tenet is that of supply, which states that a rise in the price of a product will increase the quantity supplied. Higher prices generate higher profit, encouraging a shift of resources into that product's production. By restricting supply, the government has pushed drug prices far higher than they would be in a natural market.

The results are predictable. The astronomical level of profits available from the illegal drug market has shifted resources toward their production and away from other goods. Only a collapse in the price of drugs will work to balance supply and demand. The cost of producing a 10 milligram tablet of heroin is about 50 cents. An average addict consumes 50 milligrams a day, at a natural cost of 25 cents. The price of heroin on the black market runs upward of about $50, at a profit of nearly 2,000 percent. Where is that profit going? Profits from the sale of most illegal drugs go back into the black market, funding illegal activities on a greater scale. The drug war is a federally approved gang support program. Provided is a market with huge profit and virtually no competition, yet with no legal recourse to resolve disputes. The inner cities — drug territories —exist virtually without government. Instead, gangs execute their own vigilante justice. The last few generations have watched what seems to be an everincreasing threat in the new drugs that are developed and marketed illegally. When prohibition of drugs began, few drugs were marketed illegally, and marijuana accounted

for two-thirds of the market. As prohibition continued and increased, the effect on the market was to develop more compact and intense substances, supplying more "bang" for the risk. Now designer drugs like "X," "ice" and "crack" are being sold. The effects and safety of these drugs have notbeen fully explored, but they are being tested on human beings. The situation mirrors that of alcohol prohibition. Before prohibition, people consumed mainly beer and wine. A year after prohibition, not only had alcohol consumption increased dramatically, but the intensity and subsequent toxicity of the substance increased as well. Instead of beer, Americans consumed whiskey and bathtub gin, at a greater cost financially as well as physically. After the repeal of prohibition, the country's alcohol consumption returned to beer and wine, for the most part. Prohibition of alcohol as a social experiment failed and was repealed, allowing the country to heal. Prohibition of drugs has failed, also. The nation bleeds out her inner cities, and the government's "war on drugs" adds only new wounds. -By Lesli K. Earnest Guest Writer

DEBATE Continued from front page

by a question addressed to the participants. After each issue was debated the audience was given a chance to ask questions. The issues ranged from are prisons too comfortable to whether an inmate can become victimized by the system. "There is overwhelming evidence that simply locking up the criminal and throwing away the key doesn't deter," said Waggoner. "I submit that locking up criminals forever is not the answer. "I submit that providing programs that have been proven to assist the criminal in changing their thinking and ultimately the way they believe and the way they behave is the answer." "I'd like to live in the dream world that was just described. Unfortunately I have to live in the real world," said Macy. "The prisons are overflowing with offenders who desperately need to be there. The prisons are filled with violent offenders and non-violent repeat offenders," said Macy. "All we can do for you and me to be safe is to lock them up." In regards to the issue are prisons too comfortable Macy

said yes , the inmates on death row have cable T.V. Prisons must be humane, but they should know they are doing time. The cable T.V. and other luxuries arc not paid by tax dollars, but the money generated by the prison canteen, the equivalent of 7-11, said Waggoner. Both agreed that more guards, superiors and prisons were needed, which generated applause from the audience. Macy said right now this is not punishment for criminals. He added if he had a stock and a cat of nine tails, he could get rid of 50 percent of the criminals. Both agreed that many inmates are released before they are ready, but the state has no choice. Waggoner said when we reach 95 percent capacity we must take action. Macy said that he must make sure the people he sends to prison are worse then the people they are letting out. "Until we come up with a successful format, we must be willing to lock them up or let them rape, rob or pillage," said Macy.

ELIZABETH, N.J. (AP) — A couple who sued over their downstairs neighbors' smoking must take their grievance to the building's co-op board, a judge ruled. William and Valerie Pentony say the smoking of Marie Conrad and her daughter Mary has harmed their health and fouled their apartment. They wanted Superior Court Judge John M. Boyle to order the Conrads to smoke only with outside ventilation and during the day, when the Pentonys are at work. Boyle said Thursday that state law requires the co-op board of Fox Hill Apartments in Dover to resolve tenant disputes. He gave the board two weeks to report back to the court. If the board can't resolve the problem, the issue will return to court. The Conrads smoke a pack a day each.

Courthouse hangs incorrect flag AMARILLO, Texas (AP) — No, Potter County hasn't been conquered by Chile. The county flew the Chilean flag instead of the Texas banner over the courthouse for a whole day before anyone noticed. The manufacturer had apparently put the similar-looking Chilean flag into a package marked "Texas." Chile's flag has a blue field with a single white star in the left-hand corner. The rest of the flag is a white stripe above a red stripe. The Texas flag has a blue field with a white star over the entire left-hand side. The right side is a white stripe above a red stripe. The mixup was noticed last week by Paul Hermann, an assistant district attorney. "We thought we had been invaded, overthrown, and didn't know about it," Hermann said.

Man guilty in slaying of surgeon

GET

CHICAGO (AP) — A Nazi sympathizer was found guilty Friday of murdering a plastic surgeon he claimed was promoting "fake" Aryan beauty. Cook County Circuit Judge Earl Strayhorn found Jonathan Haynes guilty of first-degree murder in the non-jury trial and then ruled him eligible for the death penalty. Haynes, who acted as his own attorney, showed no reaction to the verdict. Though he pleaded innocent, Haynes asserted during his trial this week that he fatally shot Dr. Martin Sullivan in his suburban Wilmette office in 1993 because Sullivan created "fake" Aryan beauty with plastic surgery. He repeatedly denounced, people who "dilute Aryan beauty" with plastic surgery, hair dye and tinted contact lenses. Haynes' father contends his son is a "lunatic." But he was ruled fit for trial last November and insisted on conducting his own defense. A penalty hearing was scheduled for Wednesday. Haynes waived his right to have a jury decide whether he should be executed. Strayhorn will make the decision.

Sheik gets 7-year prison sentence CAIRO, Egypt (AP) — A security court sentenced an Egyptian cleric, who also faces charges in the United States, to seven years in prison Thursday for his role in a 1989 demonstration in which three policemen were injured. The Egyptian court convicted and sentenced Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman on charges that he was acquitted of in 1990 for lack of evidence. Shortly after his acquittal, he received a U.S. visa and moved to the United States. Abdel-Rahman is being held in a federal prison in Otisville, N.Y., 70 miles northwest of New York City, on immigration and conspiracy charges. He is accused of conspiring to overthrow the U.S. government by plotting a series of bombings, kidnappings and murders. It was not clear whether Cairo would seek to extradite the cleric.

Earth Day committee plans next year's celebration By Dayna Poarch

Staff Writer

Earth Day may be over, but the event's committee never rests. Plans are already being made for next year's celebration which marks the 25th anniversary of Earth Day. Comm ittee members met Thursday to discuss changes that need to be made and events that were successful. T-shirts were given to participants but next year will possibly be made available to everyone. "We had ordered 100 to give away to the participants who were putting Earth Day together, to our guests who came to the campus

and to award students in the volleyball tournament," said Dr. David Bass, committee chairman and associate professor of biology. Earth Day attendance keeps growing each year. Last year between 2,000 and 3,000 people attended the campus event, and the number increased this year. "We had good attendance from off-campus guests, and we estimate, based on the number of freebies we gave away, that we had about 4,000 students who participated in the Earth Day fair," Bass said. Trees and seeds were also available, and almost all of the seeds were given away, he added. The committee plans to contact groups to thank them for their

participation and invite them to next year's event, so there will not be a scheduling conflict. "The committee was an excellent group of people to work with," Bass said. None of the members were biology students or staff. Some were representatives of other organizations like the University Center Activities Board. Other students became involved by signing up during freshman orientation week at the beginning of the fall semester. The tentative date for the 25th Earth Day celebration is April 19, 1995. Students who would like to be a part of the committee can contact Bass at 341-2980, Ext. 5772.

Playing the waiting game Medonos and York await possible tournament bids He has the ideal size (6-4, 185), he has great precision, great quickness and strength and a powerful serve around the 120-150 mph mark. Medonos is also hoping for a doubles berth with freshman Roberto Coronado. Medonos and Coronado compiled a 16-1 doubles mark. Dustin York is the golf team's lone hopeful for the season-ending championships. York had an outstanding fall season, winning two tournament championships with one runnerup finish in four outings. "I think my chances are good because I had those two victories earlier in the year," said York. York didn't win any championships in the spring, but he finished in the top 10 in four of six tournaments. "It wasn't clicking in the spring like it was in the fall, but I've enjoyed it, it's been fun," said York. In all, York finished in the top 10 in eight of the Bronchos 10tournament outings in the fall and the spring combined. Last fall, York finished second in his first ever collegiate tournament and finished the fall by winning back-to-back tournament championships.

By Scott Moore Sports Writer Two University of Central Oklahoma standouts will have to wait and see if their spring seasons are officially over,or if they have been extended for a few more days. Sophomore tennis player Marek Medonos and freshman golfer Dustin York are waiting to see if they have been extended invitations to compete in the NCAA Division II National Championship tournaments. Medonos will know tomorrow if he will be able to compete in the tennis tournament slated for May 16-19 in Kansas City, Mo., while York will have to wait until May 10 to see if he is eligible for the golf championships set for May 17-20 in Jacksonville, Ha. Medonos is the No. 1- singles player for the Bronchos and has compiled a 24-4 record for the fall and spring seasons combined, despite being hampered by injuries. "I feel that I have a pretty good chance of getting in, - said Medonos. "I got into a good match rhythm this seasor,but I feel that I on play about 2 ► to 30 r—rcent better. I sprained my ankle last semester, and I still struggle with that injury. I'm probably playing at about 75 percent." Medonos, a native a Prague Czech., challenged former UCO can Jong Demonteverde for the number one-singles pos tion as a freshman in 1993. ..1 feel that lie has a great chance. He had an excellent spring," said men's tennis coach Francis Baxter.

The University of Central Oklahoma's Faculty Senate held elections for four top positions and approved six proposals Thursday at its last regular meeting for this academic year. In addition, the senate received two proposals with UCO President George Nigh's OK. Stephen Law, professor of humanities and philosophy, was elected as the senate's president next year; Roberta Sloan, professor of oral communication, received the senate' s approval to serve as vice president; Michael Jezercak, professor of chemistry was elected to the position of secretary, and the senate elected the position of reporter/historian to Siegfried Heit. The president and vice president positions both offered two nominees. Each were given two minutes to express their intent if elected. Professor of business, Tom Guild, and Law, accepted the nomination and presented their

platform. Law said that the senate is at a critical juncture and that the senators know him as an outspoken Faculty Senate member. "I will continue to be outspoken and will try to the best of my ability to get the senate's approvals approved by Nigh," Law said. Although present at the meeting, Guild did not address the senate. Other senators spoke in his place saying that Guild's dedication to education and his service to the college reveal his qualities. Guild's leadership as president of the UCO chapter of the American Association of University Professors was also praised by those who spoke for him. Guild received 13 votes, Law received 18. Sloan ran against Lewis Irving, professor of sociology, for the vice presidential position. After first tying, Sloan received 17 votes, and 15 senators voted for Irving. Nigh returned two proposals with his approval. One allowing merit credits for faculty to purchase equipment and another clarifying a chairperson's term as being "four consecutive years."

One-Act Play Festival begins May 4 By Janet Runge Staff Writer The University of Central Oklahoma will kick off the student directed, One-Act Play Festival May 4 at the Pegasus Theatre in the Liberal Arts Building. The festival, which runs over four consecutiv2. nights, begins with "Labor Pains," directed by Dana Snook, and "Tiro Tells Ev-

erything There is to Know about Herself," directed by Matt Boethin, beginning at 8 p.m. May 4. "The first two shows are fun, fluff shows," said Cate Dickerson, oral communications theater major, who is one of the directors participating in the festival. "Vito on the Beach," directed

by Ginny Godfrey, "FM," directed by Cate Dickerson, and "Partners," directed by Terry Parks, will be presented May 5, beginning at 8 p.m. Dickerson said that the plays on the second night of the festival contain graphic language. "We are posting a sign in the lobby advising parents that some of the plays contain adult subject matter and language not suitable for children," said Dickerson. "The Baltimore s' directed by Laura Hartpence, and "Patient A," directed by Terry Parks, will be presented on May 6, beginning at 8 p.m. Both plays deal with the Aids issue said Dickerson. "Tone Clusters," directed by LaTrisha Anderson, and "Zelda," a one-woman show performed by

Laura Hartpence, will be performed May 7, at 8 p.m. Dickerson said that all oral communication theater majors are required to produce and direct a one-act play. "We choose the play, hold auditions, cast it, design the set, costumes, sounds and lights," said. Dickerson. Dickerson said she read over 30 plays before selecting "FM." "I chose this one because I like Romuleus Linney' s work, and its about a college creative writing class," she said. "Since I'm a writer, I could relate to the play." All plays selected were subject to approval by Dr. Donald Bristow, professor of oral communications, said Dickerson. Admission for the plays, which are open to the public, is free.
