High-tech education building Censure lifted after construction 'ahead of schedule' 26 years By Joy McNutt Staff Writer
By Paisley Krout Staff Writer
Work on the new education building including a high-tech, multi-media classroom, is progressing ahead of schedule, and should be completed in late November or early December, said Nick Widener, executive assistant to the vice president for administration/special projects. "The metal decking is in place, some framing of the outside walls is done, and some of the mechanical equipment is on site," Widener said. Dr. Kenneth E. Elsner, dean of College of Education, said the new building will be equipped with a long-disThe steel frame for UCO's new education building is a sign of the continuing construction on camtance interactive video/con- pus.

A 26-year censure imposed on UCO by the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) ended June 12 by a unanimous vote of delegates at the National AAUP Assembly. The censure began when George Benz, a tenured professor, was fired in 1967 without notice, which was a violation of University policy. Benz appealed the firing in 1969 resulting in the censure. "UCO had the fifth longest censure of any college in the nation," said Guild. "The negative impact of a censure could mean a quality professor might choose not to take a job at a censured college." Guild said the AAUP does not tell members not to take a job at a censured college, but to investigate for abuse of policies. "Neither of the previous two presidents wanted to do anything about the censure," said

Media not to blame: People make their own decisions

he mass media became the society's scapegoat for tragedy long before a young man shot himself to death after listening to the rock group Judas Priest, and a three-year-old child burned his family's home to the ground after watching an episode of Beavis and Butthead. Following these tragic events, and many others like them, wrongful death suits against members of the mass media became common. As a result, public opinion of the First Amendment has become less than favorable. Today, print and broadcast media, as well as the movies, remain as targets for lawsuits involving people or families who blame their tragedies on other's overexposure to ignorance, violence, carnage and/or gratuitous sex. Spearheading a recent effort to swing public opinion against having so much freedom of choice in the media, Sen. Robert Dole attributed increasing levels of social violence to movies such as True Romance and Natural Born Killers. He in turn cited the movies The Lion King and Forrest Gump as symbols of Republican thinking and basic American moral values. Let's face facts. The mass media represents what life has been or could be. It does not make decisions. People make decisions. Furthermore, children are the mixture of their parents' personalities and the societies within which they live. It is of the utmost importance to set good examples and pay close attention to the things they are watching, reading and hearing. Remember, the mass media is only a source of information. Understanding the mass media and the information it has to offer will allow us to make better decisions—well-informed decisions that will affect us all some day. A

Recent study shows Edmond water to be safe Edmond water benefits from recent innovations in high-tech filtering By Heather Canann Staff Writer
What is that you are drinking? Recent reports claim our nation's drinking water may be dangerous to our health. According to Judy Duncan, director of customer services division at the Department of Environmental Equality, Edmond and Oklahoma City metro area's water is fine, although occasionally some problems do arise. The Edmond water treatment plant is relatively new. It has ozonization treatment
and Granulated Activated Carbon (GAC), said Dan Palmer, plant manager. Ozonization helps purify polluted water by aiding in the settling process. A powerful disinfectant, ozone kills bacteria and other organisms. It also removes iron and maganese, which frequently leave deposits in plumbing. One benefit of ozonization is the prevention of carcinogens that other processes can't remove, said Palmer. Ozonization is the best available technology to remove cryptosporidium, which can be fatal to those with weakened immune systems, he said. In April 1993, crytosporidium plagued Milwaukee and sickened about half of the population. GAC lowers the pH of
water and removes pesticides, herbicides, taste and odor compounds. In 1988 and 1993, the Edmond water plant won the Large Water Plant of the Year award from the Oklahoma Water Pollution Control Association, said Palmer. In 1991, the plant won the Environmental Protection Agency Regional Award for Excellence in their system. The region includes Arkansas, Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. The treatment of the water in the metro area is currently upgrading to the same system, but it will take a few weeks for the effects to be noticed in some areas.

Dr. Douglas C. Sprung, chairperson of curriculum and instruction, invited NASA aerospace education specialist, Charles R. Anderson, to teach the course. "We will cover everything from airplanes to rockets," Sprung said. "But the real emphasis is on teaching resources." Anderson said he will cover space environment, aeronautics, rocketry and rocket launching, micro-gravity, lunar exploration, space suits and toys in space. "Astronauts took toys in space so teachers would have something very simple to teach science with," Anderson said. Anderson received a bachelor of science in elementary education from UCO, and his master's in natural and applied sciences, with aviation and space options, from Oklahoma State University.

Correspondence offers alternative to crowded classroom By Paisley Krout Staff Writer How can you avoid long enrollment lines, extra fees, have an entire year to complete a class and never even come near the UCO campus? Enroll in a correspondence course. The office of Correspondence Studies, currently offers students 24 lower-level and 27 upperlevel classes in over 18 different departments. Currently, no master's courses are available. Students do classwork at
home and mail them to UCO to be graded. Letter grades are given for the courses and some courses have no finals. "Our goal is to offer as many classroom courses possible to give the commuter a chance to take everything they can, when they need to take it," said Linda Mask, from the Office of Correspondence. Students may enroll at the Office of Correspondence in Evans Hall, Room 4, and tuition must be paid at the time of enrollment. Students may make

All-American boys Golfers earn honors while driving UCO to top 10 finish at national tournament
Sooner joins golf team University of Oklahoma sophomore golfer Dax Johnston has anounced he will transfer to UCO and join the Broncho golf team next fall. Johnston, a three-time All-State selection from Yukon, had a 74.8 stroke average in two years at OU and played for the Sooners in the NCAA Championships both seasons. "Dax is an outstanding player and a very welcomed addition to our golf team," said UCO head coach Skip Wagnon. "Not only is Dax a great golfer, but he's also an excellent student who should fit well into our program."
Ex-Broncho places third at Kemper Former UCO golfer Robin Freeman fired a final-round 68 to take third place at the Kemper Open in Potomac, Md. on Sunday. Freeman, who finished his collegiate career in 1982 and is not related to current Broncho Jason Freeman, bogeyed the final two holes to finish one stroke behind Lee Janzen and Corey Pavin. Janzen claimed the title on the first hole of the sudden-death playoff.

York, a third-team All-American and AllDistrict pick last year, finished tied for 18th at the Division II championships. "Both Freeman and York are both good, solid golfers with excellent practice habits," said UCO head coach Skip Wagnon. "They are pretty much equal. York was our number one golfer going into this season because he was an All-American pick last year and competed in the national tournament. "They are both returning for us next year and should provide us with a solid core to keep us as a legitimate title contender." Senior David Hines from Dewey finished tied for 28th at the championships and was an All-American honorable mention selection. Hines also has an individual title under his belt, winning the Pecan Valley Classic at Fort Worth, Texas March 23-24.

"If we have a classroom that is not in use, we thoroughly intend to share it with all three other colleges," Elsner said. UCO colleges other than Education, include Mathematics and Sciences, Business Administration and Liberal Arts. Although the new education building will not be listed on the spring 1996 class schedule, Elsner said education classes now offered in the portable buildings and the library, may be moved into it by that time, if the building is ready and the regents have accepted it.
Nigh raised $500 to bring George Benz to UCO to meet the AAUP chapter. The National AAUP also worked with Nigh to bring personnel policies closer to the national standard. Guild wrote a letter to the National AAUP on behalf of the local chapter including information about the scholarship and the honorarium. The letter was then submitted to a national
committee who made recommendations to the Assembly of State Conferences which met in Washington June 7 to 11. Votes were then made to lift the censure. "I appreciate the efforts of members of the local AAUP executive committee, National AAUP, President Nigh and the Board of Regents for getting to the point of ending this 26 yearold nightmare," said Guild.
