The University of Central Oklahoma has tabled an investigation until new information is acquired concerning a claim that a student was paid UCO grant money while working in a private clinic.

Brenda Cudjoe, a graduate student of the College of Education, claimed she was hired as a research assistant in January to help interview minorities.

Cudjoe claimed to have taped two telephone conversations with the professors in which they urged her to reconsider her actions.

Cudjoe's attorney, Jeff Lee, said the Attorney General's office had requested the tapes. Lee said he would not release the originals without a court order but UCO and the Attorney General's office was welcome to listen to the tapes in his office.

The Attorney General's office said that they had made a written request for the tapes and the request was refused.

Cudjoe said she only conducted 100 interviews and the remaining time worked in the Northeast Child Guidance and Family Clinic owned by three UCO faculty members: Dr. Malcolm Coby, professor of curriculum and instruction: Dr. Wanda Johnson, assistant professor of professional teacher education: and Charolette Myles-Nixon, who will be assistant professor in the fall.

Cudjoe claims UCO misused funds Student says she was paid grant money to work in clinic

By Will Andrews Staff Writer

The investigation of alleged misappropriation of state funds by the University of Central Oklahoma was not conducted in good faith, said Brenda Cudjoe, UCO student.

Cudjoe said she worked for three UCO professors, Dr. Malcolm Coby, Dr. Wanda Johnson, and Dr. Charolette Myles-Nixon, at a private clinic they owned, and was paid

as a research assistant at UCO. Cudjoe, who has masters' degrees in general studies and home economics, and is working on her teacher certification at UCO, informed Brenda Cudjoe Malcolm Coby Wanda Johnson faculty and administration of the alleged improprieties in April, and says she has "All they wanted to do was sweep it under never heard anything about the results. the rug."

"It's a good or boy system," Cudjoe said. V See CUDJOE, back page.

71415 ISN'T THE GOO D TIME" WE WANTED!! "

U.S. should get out of Somalia Have we really learned the lesson of Vietnam?

Apparently not. The Clinton administration, along with the United Nations, has decided to involve American soldiers in an unwinnable war. A war in which the very "civilians" we are trying to protect beat American journalists to death. If our forces are unwanted and unwelcome, remove them.

Those loyal to Somali warlord Mohainmed Farah Aidid, and the Somalis who simply see the presence of II.S. forces as an intrusion, have made it more than obvious that our help is not wanted or needed.

These people obviously have the strength, provided by our relief efforts, to kill an Associated Press photographer and a photographer from Reuters news service. They obviously have enough money to purchase .50-caliber machine guns and hundreds Of AK-47's and other automatic weapons.

Besides the two photographers, two other journalists are missing and feared dead . Two more were shot and stabbed by angry mobs of Somali.

Evidently this is the kind of welcome the Somalis give troops who are trying to remove the man who has continued to starve and kill them.

There is a difference between being a "kinder gentler nation," and being a stupid one. Currently the United States is reinforcing its reputation as the latter.

There is no such thing as a limited war. We can not attempt to surgically remove Gen. Aidid. If the aim of the forces is truly to remove this thug from power, it must be done in a real show of force.

A 17-minute helicopter attack on a building that kills only 13 will only serve to anger those who see us as intruders.

My advice to President Clinton and the United Nations is to pull all troops out of Somalia until Aidid's own supporters get hungry enough to overthrow him, destroy all of Aidid's resources and utterly crush his ability to make trouble, or let them all starve. Surely even Aidid would see the futility in being the leader of a country of corpses and dirt.

The recurrent theme in Clinton's shows of force seems to be no more than a slap on the hand. Apparently this tactic is not working. In fact, it seems to he nothing more than a global example of smacking a hornet's nest with a stick.

Besides, the fact that we are evidently unwanted and unwelcome in Somalia, we have problems in the United States which must take precedence.

Most of the midwest is being washed into the Gulf of Mexicb. Major cities are on the verge of exploding into gang wars. The United States could he funneling these millions into drug prevention programs, rebuilding the country's infrastructure, or funding the bombing of abortion clinics.

Fiber optic network will connect campus

By Roger Groce Staff Writer Imagine attending a class at another university without every leaving the University of Central Oklahoma, or punching a console and having a video, live television, CD-ROM, or computer programs and graphics spring to life on monitors throughout the room.

Such is the future for UCO because of the fiber optic network currently under design.

Phase one began last year and linked the Math and Computer Science building with Murdaugh Hall, the library, and the Adminis-

tration building, but phase two was set aside until the Master Plan construction is completed.

Phase two will connect the business complex, Liberal Arts building, and the University Center, said Maithreyi Manoharan, director of the UCO computer center.

"There are other universities in the U.S. that already have these capabilities," Manoharan said.

"We want to go a little bit further."

The goal of the fiber optic network is to establish multimedia classrooms in every building that have complete interactive computer/video capabilities, and immediate access to campus resources, and other state universi-

ties.

Faculty and students will be able to access either DOS or Macintosh based computer programs campus-wide, view live speeches, select and play videos, and more without ever leaving the room.

Manoharan hopes to receive plans for the new buildings soon in order to determine the locations of the communications closets where the fiber optics will feed into the building.

"Then we'll start designing where the fiber optics will go," Manoharan said.

The expense of installing a stateof-the-art fiber optics network at UCO is partially included in the

Master Plan. The fiber is not the bulk of the cost, however, but rather the decoders at the end of the fiber, Manoharan said.

New excitement in fiber optic technology is in recent advances in video transmission, Manoharan said.

"Compression video" is sent via binary-type light pulses down the fiber to a decoder at the end. Because of the versatility of the optical signal, uses range from processing telephone calls and live video, to computer software interfaces.

One drawback of the recent technology, said Manoharan, is the

lack of a standard protocol for the fiber optics industry.

Standards common to data processing such as BAUD rate, which defines a unit of signaling speed for telegraphic code, or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange), which links the computer processing world together in a mutually recognizable format, has yet to be reached in the fiber optic video transmission market.

Manoharan hopes the Oklahoma Board of Regents will carefully review and select a system most likely to stay compatible with other systems around the nation.

Staff Writer The University of Central Oklahoma's Print Shop has purchased a printing press that will allow them to produce twice as many copies per hour as the previous press.

The press cost S217,790, said Ron Mattingly, director of Purchasinc! at UCO. David Polhemus, director of the Print Shop said that the press will allow one person to produce twice as much with the new equipment as they could with the old one.

The old copier produced approximately 6,500 sheets per hour, the new copier will produce about 12,000 sheets per hour.

The new press will also allow them to print two colors at once along with both sides of the paper at once.

Polhemus said that the Shop has been working on getting the new press for about eight years and the press will help them fill t.JCO's demands with its spiraling enrollment.

Polhemus also said that the old press is still functional and will most likely be used solely for the production of The.Vista.

, Growth allows for expansion e

UCO creates 10 new faculty positions for fall

By Roy Howe Staff Writer

0

An anticipated 5 percent increase in student enrollment along with a 7 percent rise in tuition to begin this fall is allowing the University of Central Oklahoma to create 10 new faculty positions.

The newly funded positions will place additional instructors in the College of Education, the College of Liberal Arts and the College of Mathematics and Science this fall.

The University of Central Oklahoma rece ived approval last month for its $50.3 million budget which includes S18.7 million in expected revenues from tuition and student fees.

Due to fiscal stress across the state, institutions for higher learning have downsized faculty teaching by 140 positions this fiscal year.

Rechannelling resources and a $2.4 million reserve both contribute to UCO's ability to add the faculty said Clyde Jacob, vice president of academic affairs.

"Our reason is that the university has a fairly healthy reserve," he said. "We have, over the past several years, tried to shift our resources over to the high-priority academic areas—from the low demand areas to the high demand

areas."

Jacob also cited funds resulting from the anticipated large student body this fall as permitting the new faculty positions.

"Our enrollment growth also helps to generate revenue for the university," he said. "We can turn around and reinvest those resources into personnel, facilities and programs.

The new instructors will teach classes that include psychology and personnel, circular and instruction and home economics.

Foreign language, journalism, music theater and sociology criminal justice are also positions that require additional faculty.

Mathematics and statistics, funeral services and physics will also receive new instructors.

"This is a supply and demand environment," said Terry May, assistant vice president for academic affairs.

"If you have a program that is growincz, you have to have faculty to cover the classes," May said.

Overall, UCO fills teaching positions as the result of retirements, resignations and sabbaticals; fulltime consolidations from part-time positions and with newly funded positions.

"New positions are predicated on studentenrollment growths and are a result from either consolidation of adjuncts or conversions of

previous temporary appointments," said Jacob.

I-le said that the positions are advertised twice yearly in a wide variety of publications including

The Chronicle for Higher Education.

The hiring process involves a number of steps and may begin with more than 100 applicants per position said May. After the closing date for a position, department faculty screen the applicants. From there, they are narrowed down to three to five finalists. Interviews with the applicants are then conducted.

Next, the screening committee will make a recommendation for employment to the dean of that college. The dean then reviews the material and seeks an opinion from the department chairperson, who is not a part of the initial screening committee.

From there, the dean's recommendation is forwarded to the office of academic affairs who will make a recommendation to the university president.

Finally, the president of the university submits a recommendation for employment to the university's board of regents where they take the action to hire the applicant or not.

All employees at the state's higher learning sites are hired or retained with one-year contracts.

Allison clan dealt another tragedy Davey Allison lost his fight for life early Tuesday morning and succumbed to the head injuries he suffered when his helicopter crashed on the infield of Talladega Supe ► speedway on Monday.

Allison's death was indeed a tragic loss to the NASCAR circuit and his fans, however, it pales in comparrison to the agony felt by the Allison clan.

The crash marked the fourth tragedy to befall the Allison family in the last five years.

In 1988 Davey's father, Bobby, was critically injured during a race at Pocono and forced to retire.

Commentary Last year Davey's younger brother Clifford, while competing at the Michigan International Speedway, crashed and died.

That was followed by Davey's 12-flip car-totaling wreck at Pocono on July 19, 1992.

The Allison family has dedicated the majority of their lives to the sport of auto racing, and now, it seems, have been unfairly, if not cruely, cursed by that very thing.

LTC° sports information director Mike Kirk has showcased that success thepast three years by winning national College Sports Information Directors of America (CoS IDA) awards for his media guides, which provide useful wrestling information to newspaper, radio turd television personnel on the local, state and national levels.

Again this year, Kirk's wrestling media guide was named "Best in the Nation" for brochure and for cover in NCAA Divisions II and III, meaning UCO's publication was undisputedly the best in the country.

Kirk, a 1982 graduate of Oklahoma State University, has served as SID since 1987--a career he is the first to admit has its ups and downs but is rarely without excitement.

Kirk's duties include preparing media guides rued press releases for each of the school's 14 varsity sports, compiling statistics, serving as department historin and providinge media with all necessary data before, during and alter athletic events."Obviously the highlight for me is the success of our athletic teams and student athletes," Kirk said.

Mrs. Bisson was at home on the telephone when there was a loud bang outside and the phone line went dead.

The body was sunken six inches into the garden and she noticed broken tree branches and telephone wires overhead.
