Reprimand from housing staff may be unlawful

By Erin Mitchell

Staff Writer

A written reprimand from Central State University housing administration to an employee concerning discussion of policy changes outside administrative channels may be against state law, said press attorney David McCullough. According to state law 841.7, no supervisor or appointing authority of any state agency shall prohibit employees of such agency from discussing the opera-

Grad says records refused Officials claim student misconduct involved By Keith Purtell

Staff Writer

A May 1990 Central State University graduate has alleged campus administration withheld her transcript and diploma for two weeks without legal foundation. Ann Hamilton, an oral communications graduate, said she went to pick up her transcript June 26 and was told there was a hold on her records. "On June 28 I called and requested a written explanation from Dr. Dudley Ryan (vice president for Student Services)," Hamilton said. "He was out of the office so I left my name, phone number and address with the secretary. He sent me a letter the next day." Ryan's letter, dated June 29, states that Ryan had become involved in an investigation of "alleged misuse of student confidential data" which was incomplete

until Hamilton could come to Ryan's office and speak with him about the matter. "When I begin any investigation, the first thing I do is place a `Deans Hold' on records," Ryan wrote. Hamilton said she declined to go to Ryan's office, and that her understanding of university policy was that records could not be withheld unless a fine or fee was unpaid. "On July 2, I called and asked for the exact rule they were using to hold my records," Hamilton said. "Ryan's secretary said she would leave the message with him. They never called me back with an answer. "If Ryan thinks I did something he needs to bring formal charges," Hamilton said. "The Dean's office is not the forum for it. All they did was allege I did something and then throw a hold on my records." Hamilton said she was unable to

enroll in graduate school or complete applications for financial aid because she had no diploma or transcript, so she sought advice from Legal Aid of Oklahoma, the American Civil Liberties Union, and Scott Fern, legal counsel for the state regents. "None were able to help within the time frame necessary," Hamilton said, "and Scott Fern said he had a conflict of interest. So I was forced to hire an attorney." "My attorney contacted the administration's attorney, who requested I sign a release guaranteeing administration would not be sued for damages. Of course we refused. "I was denied due process," Hamilton said. "And that's what I find highly frustrating. And scary, frankly, to know they can do this. What's going to happen when this Please see RECORDS on page 8.

Bilingual ed for teachers scorned by campus profs By Kamal Mazlan

Staff Writer

Professors in the College of Education at Central State University do not support U.S. Education Secretary Lauro F. Cavazos's suggestion that prospective teachers should be bilingual because of the growing ethnic diversity of American students. "We certainly want to encourage students to be culturally diverse, but I'm not sure we are ready to require a foreign language of all teacher candidates," said Dr. J.W. Weatherford, professional teacher education chairperson.

"Also, if a person is going to live in the U.S., they should learn the English language. We can't require our teachers to communicate in Spanish, French and German. If we require teachers to speak five languages, we have to pay them more than the $17,000 starting salary," Weatherford said. According to Cavazos, teachers have had to adjust to the increased linguistic and cultural diversity of the students. Only 10 percent of all college graduates can speak a second language, said Cavazos when he addressed the American Federation of Teachers' annual convention early July in Boston.

Silent treatment highlights issue By Keith Purtell Staff Writer A recent Vista editorial, prompted by a rash of communications problems with campus personnel, highlights a growing problem in American society. Officials in both public and private offices have adopted the alarming practice of freezing out the press. NewsInc. magazine described the results of a "gag law" in Aberdeen, S. Dakota. Daily events became cloaked in mystery, traffic reports were blocked by uncooperative police officers, and city union members were silenced. CSU is no different. For months, department heads, faculty, and staff have acted like bureaucratic dunderheads when approached by reporters, even to answer basic questions about day-to-day functions. People who are qualified to be in charge of an office or department are qualified to answer simple questions about those areas.

Officials don't realize every contact with a reporter, regardless of circumstance, is a public relations opportunity. Because the paper is sometimes used as a public forum to seek improvements in university management, a few people have concluded every reporter is on the trail of controversy. These few people have been telling other people they can't talk to The Vista. Yet, the reigning bureaucracy has no right or reason to function in secrecy. Several people have said some supervisors feel they have been "burned" by The Vista. In what sense? If they were misquoted, the editors need to know the specifics. We expect all reporters to be professional, but we can't solve a problem we don't know about. Some supervisors may have been burned in the sense of facing criticism from higher-ups if they are quoted in a controversial article. Perhaps administration could simply remember that the best way to get good press coverage is to obey rules and ethical principles.

The Vista

Readers respond to letters, column Humorous tone no excuse for stereotyping To the Editor: In regard to the article by Jo Pydynkowsky commenting on the usefulness of men as "handymen:" I realize that this article was written in a humorous tone, but by labeling women helpless at household repairs and men as handy, we do both sexes a disservice. Women should be given positive messages regarding skills in traditionally male areas. Those who do not develop these skills are shortchanging their intelligence and competency. Those who have developed these skills often feel put down as being too "masculine," read dyke, by both men and women. I personally resent this as I am a feminist, a "feminine" woman and I own a house and car upon which I do most repairs and maintenance. I still wear dresses and flirt with men. Men have, through the ages, been looked to for superior knowledge in all fields, especially the mechanical and technical areas. Some men, however, are totally ignorant of how cars run, disposals dispose and doorknobs knob. I

have many male friends who run when I light the gas furnace and look at a car engine and are totally baffled. Are they thus "feminine," read homosexual? This attitude prevents many men and women from attaining their full potential as human beings—not masculine or feminine stereotypes. If homosexuality were not thought of as a negative term, perhaps no one would give a damn. It is time to drop the sexist line just as it is no longer acceptable to propose that all AfricanAmericans have rhythm and love watermelon.

Graduate dean praises success of summer social To the Editor: I would like to thank those who helped make the recent Graduate College Ice Cream Chill-Out (social) a success. It was a great evening. Students and faculty were treated to more than 30 gallons of ice cream with fudge, strawberry and various assorted toppings. Along with a beautiful summer evening, the group was entertained for two hours by the contemporary rock and roll band, the "Stars."

Many thanks to our president, Dr. Lillard, Vice President Mounce and director of publications and chair of our Centennial Committee, Linda Jones, for providing the financial backing for this official Centennial event. In addition, we could not have done it without some outstanding volunteers: Peter Regan from the student senate; Carey Chase, Lori Wilson and Trey Smith of Delta Pi Epsilon; Curtis Ray and the men from Kappa Sigma; Trent Coe, Jason Schnitzer, Dustin Bailey, Brian Anderson, Mike Meade and Bill Hamilton. A special thanks to the CSU Physical Plant, Scott Horton, the CSU News Bureau and CSU Food Service. Happy 100th Birthday to us all.

Dr. George Avellano Dean, Graduate College

Citizens must be free to criticize aspects of life To the Editor: In response to all the antichoice, anti-flag burning, antifreedom of speech advocates in abundance today: Freedom is the basis upon which democracy is

built. Citizens must have free access to and expression of ideas both complimentary to and critical of each aspect of life in the United States in order to govern themselves fairly and justly. Because we must allow this exchange, there will always be those who will abuse these freedoms for any number of reasons. These people must not be allowed to interfere with our rights as Americans. As we grow and learn as evolving human beings, we will be able to educate and care for those who may need extra support. Whether this means that we teach these people respect for the flag/fetus/life, or that society as a whole begins to care for each other, thus allowing even more freedom—the laws allowing freedom of speech, religion, including non-Christians, etcetera, will be protected by all. The flag is a symbol, not an idol to be revered and worshiped. The fetus is undeterminable by humans as being or not. Those who hide themselves behind sham issues which result in losses of our rights as free citizens and ignore larger, more important issues, are a far greater threat to the United States than any Russian communist or terrorist.

Students take part in Chevy commercial By Judy LeBlanc

Student Writer

A Chevrolet commercial featuring three Central State University students and a blue 1990 GEO Storm was filmed on campus July 10. The CSU clip was filmed on the west lawn of Old North Tower in 100-degree heat. The students, all professional models with JoAnn Fullerton Modeling and Casting Agency, walked through the script about a dozen times in the midday sun for director Doug Grimm, Windstar Productions. "We put out a casting call at the Fullerton Agency for the models," said Mark Paglia, Windstar producer. The models and others featured in the production were selected by Paglia from photographs submit-

ted by the agency, according to Kathy Story, Fullerton director. "Windstar wanted girls with perky' looks. The girls chosen are all professional fashion models," Story said. The models were senior Tia McElvany, senior Elizabeth Anderson, and junior Michelle Johnson. The fourth model was April Lawson, Edmond High School senior. Johnson said the only complaint the models had was the closing scene required all of them to lean against the car, and the metal was very hot to touch. The 30-second commercial, titled "Color Storm," will feature three groups of women, one each from the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University and CSU. The three ten-second segments of each campus will be aired in central and western Oklahoma

The 1989-90 Central State University Freshman Scholastic Awards were presented to Kimberly Leonard, a language major from Edmond, and Chaw Sin Lee, a pre-engineering major from Malaysia. The awards were presented by CSU President Bill Lillard June 27 The Freshman Scholar awards are given to the male and female freshman student having the highest grade-point average. The awards are based on total hours in which students are enrolled in and the difficulty of those classes, said Darrell Gilliland, director of Admissions and Records. Leonard had a grade-point average of 4.0 while enrolled in a total of 33 hours during the fall and spring semester. Lee maintained a grade-point average of 4.0 while enrolled in 31 hours for the spring and fall semester. Leonard said she studied approximately three hours a night to maintain her grade-point average, in addition to working part-time as a secretary in the chemistry department 16 hours a week. Leonard said she plans to attend Central State University in the fall. "I'm kind of leaning towards languages, mainly French and German."

Adviser receives national award By Linda Morgan

Student Writer

Dr.Scott McLaughlin, associate professor of curriculum and instruction at Central State University, has received the Outstanding Adviser Award from the National Student Speech Language Hearing Association. The award, based on student nomination, is given to local NSSLHA Chapter Advisers, McLaughlin said. According to NSSLHA standards, criteria for presenting

awards is based on the recipient's success in establishing new chapters, providing outstanding leadership, motivating students, providing superior role models and leading chapter activities. McLaughlin said he was pleased to receive the award from such a dedicated group of individuals. "It is inspirational to work with the kind of students we have. They put in a lot of time and effort," he said. McLaughlin has been at CSU since 1983 and will be program director for the clinic in the fall. He

is coordinator of the SpeechHearing Clinic and oversees client scheduling, clinic operations and practicum activities. McLaughlin said he originally got involved in speech pathology because he liked to work with people in a one-on-one situation. "Any language articulation problems such as stuttering, voice disorders, and problems related to hearing impairment are served through the clinic," McLaughlin said. "I try to stress the importance of being involved in your profession," he said.

"People call when they're pregnant to get on the list," McCauley said. The center serves as a lab for students and teachers to study child development. It is available for children of CSU faculty and staff first, students second and the community third, said Dr. Kay Sears, home economics professor. "CSU was one of the first centers in the nation to be accredited by the National Academy of Early Childhood Programs," Sears said. The academy sets standards for quality programs in preschools and child care centers That are above minimum standards set by the Department of Human Services, Sears said. The academy is a division of the National Association for the Education of Young Children, and is the nation's largest organization of early childhood educators. According to information supplied by the NAEYC, "a quality program offers a safe, nurturing environment while promoting the physical, social, emotional, and intellectual development of young children." McCauley said the center has a total capacity for 40 children; 20 3-to 4-year-olds in the morning and 20 4-to 5-year-olds in the afternoon. There is one teacher to every four children, and the children's ages determine how many teachers are required to supervise them. The center's program emphasizes activities for children that are developmentally appropriate for each age group, Sears said.

Developmentally-appropriate activities are based on what a child is capable of doing at a specific age. If an activity is too easy, the child will be bored, but if it's too hard, the child will be frustrated. Sears teaches this concept in her child guidance classes at CSU. "This is a model program with minimal costs. I think first and foremost parents want a highquality program with adequate teacher-child ratios," McCauley said. Paula Jones, an Edmond resident and mother of four, has a child entering the program and one who has just finished. "I have been real impressed with it," Jones said. Concentration on the developmental growth of each child is the major reason she chose CSU's center, Jones said. Another important factor parents consider when choosing child care is convenience, Sears said. "We need a daycare center on campus in addition to the half- day program we now have; one that works with the teaching and class schedules," Sears said. "The early years of a child's life set the stage for their whole life," she said. Sears said she would like to see a self-supporting day care center at CSU, but doesn't know if that will ever be a reality.

Lillard, CSU recognized by Edmond By Kurt Koenig

Student Writer

"Partners in growth, Edmond & CSU" is the theme of a reception and dinner commemorating the 100-year partnership between Central State University and it's host community. Also being recognized are Dr. Bill Lillard's 15 years as president of CSU. During Lillard's tenure, enrollment has risen from about 12,000 to more than 14,000 and the budget has more than tripled. Of the 60,000 graduates in CSU's history, more than half have received their diploma during Lillard's presidency, according to the communications/publications office.

The celebration will begin at 7 p.m., July 19, with a wine and cheese reception at the Seasons' Inn on Second Street in Edmond, with the banquet following at 7:45 p.m.. The Edmond Chamber of Commerce, in conjunction with the CSU Alumni Association, the

Lillard

CSU Foundation Inc., the Presidents' Council of the Edmond Chamber and the Edmond Development Authority will sponsor the event. "One of the reasons the Chamber of Commerce is recognizing the partnership is because CSU is the number one industry in Edmond. We are the city's largest employer," said Linda Jones, CSU director of public relations. "The city benefits greatly from the University being here with our $40 million budget. The University, in turn, is able to function in a modern, well-cared-for, safe community," Jones said.

Central State University will spend $250,000 next year to link up with Langston University in Guthrie and Oklahoma State University in Stillwater in a systemwide fiber optic network, according to Philip Arnold, assistant vice president for administration.

"The $250,000 is CSU's cost of participation in the project," Arnold said. "We received the funds from Section 13 of the Oklahoma State Land Commission, a statutory body which manages and distributes money for capital improvement projects." Arnold said one of the original intents of the Oklahoma Network of Continuing Higher Education project was to improve access to higher learning opportunities. "Essentially, various centers of higher education and OETA are working together to transmit voice, video and data among state institutions," Arnold said. The Oklahoma State Legislature and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation of Battlecreek, Michigan, combined their funds to provide $4 million for the existing network, Arnold said.

Student Association Vice President David Slane proposed a possible solution to student's financial aid problems Friday in a meeting with Student Financial Aids Director Sheila Fugett, Vice President Joyce Motmce, Assistant Vice President Phil Arnold and SA President Peter Regan. Slane proposed the department wait a week after spring semester begins to drop students who have not properly initialed their award letters.

Green to take dean's position in Nebraska By Jana Potts

Staff Writer

Dr. Donald Green, chairman of history and geography, will be dean of the school of humanities and social sciences at Chadron State College, Chadron, Neb., beginning in August. "Nebraskans respect higher education," Green said. "I've waited for years for a change in support of higher education in Oklahoma." It's a good opportunity for change since he can retire from the Oklahoma system, Green said. "It's a new challenge and I'm moving into a higher adminstration," Green said.

CSC is in progress of moving from a teaching school to a liberal arts college, Green said. Green said he also likes the geographic location. Chadron is in the northwest corner of Nebraska, about 60 miles from the Black Hills, near Pine Ridge. "I have mixed emotions because I've left so much of myself here," Green said. Green has been a professor at CSU 21 years, since 1969, and chairman since 1982. Some of his accomplishments at CSU include putting together the proposal for a master's degree in Southwestern studies, helping create the Oklahoma collections and he was one of the writers of the first code for the graduate fa-

52 vie for wrestling team

Brown goes for Goodwill Games gold By Kurt Koenig Student Writer Next month Central State University will be represented at the Goodwill Games in the half marathon; a 13.1 mile demonstration sport road race with hundreds of competitors. Wesley Brown, a senior journali s m major, will begin a race at 8:30 a.m. Aug. 21 in Seattle which he said could go far in helping him acheive his ultimate goal; running the marathon in the 1992 Olympics. "If I rim this in less than 1:06 (one hour, six minutes), I'll be invited to the Olympic trials," Brown said. Brown won the Race for Goodwill June 30 in Tulsa to qualify for the Goodwill Games. There will be only one contestant from each state in the contest. A part-time employee in the student activities office, Brown grew up in Hope, Ark., just north of Texarkana. He was Arkansas prep state champion in both the mile and two mile race in 1980, his senior year. Brown won his only one full marathon, the state championship in Gage two months ago. "I haven't run a marathon before because I feel you have to get to a level where you're physically and mentally mature enough to race a marathon," Brown said. "There's a big difference between running one and racing one. There's a lot of people who fmish marathons. I never had any doubt in my mind that I could finish one, but to race one is totally different," Brown said. Brown claims much of his success is owed to his training partners. Although they run anywhere from 10-25 miles a day, they do more for his mental attitude than his physical ability. "This year having training partners really brought me a long way as far as mental attitude having someone to go out there and run those miles with you. To go out and run two to three hours by yourself is just mentally taxing," Brown said. Brown competed in seven races last month and won the blue ribbon every time.

The Central State University campus was visited by many of the state's top wrestlers last week during the Oklahoma Junior National Team Camp, the final qualifying leg for the National Junior Olympic team. Head Coach Jerry Kuntz, also mentor of Putnam City High School's wrestling program, again pilots the Oklahoma national team this year as they defend their two consecutive national championships in Cedar Falls, Iowa, July 14-21. At Cedar Fills, 46 teams from across the country will compete on 22 mats for the national title, which is the largest high school wrestling tournament in the world, Kuntz said. In addition to winning the last two national championships, Oklahoma has also won the past three of five titles, placing at least second each of those years, Kuntz said. The camp, assisted by 12 Oklahoma High School coaches, is the last chance for youngsters, grades 9-12 this past year, to make the national team, Kuntz said. A tryout camp was held at PCHS May 7 in which the top two finishers qualified for the team's 72 positions. In all, 52 wreslters competed for 45 remaining spots on the national team consisting of 36 freestyle wreslters and 36 GrecoRoman style wrestlers, Kuntz said. Kuntz said he expects another successful trip this year with the quality of wrestlers he has returning. "We are real good again," he said. "We lost a lot of kids last year, but a lot of kids are back. The young kids will do well I think also. The competition this year will come from the Pennsylvannia and Oregon teams."

Students, staff discuss lack of awareness By Linda Morgan Student Writer

Poor reading skills and lack of intellectual curiosity, coupled with a self-absorbed mentality, were just a few reasons given by Central State University students and faculty alike for decreased student awareness of current events. According to a recent study conducted by the Times Mirror Center for the People and the Press, Americans under age 35 know less about what's going on in the country than any other generation in the past 50 years. Dr. Donald Green, chairman of history and geography, said students lack of desire or ability to read were reasons for declining awareness of current events. "It's not they don't read the 'daily news' or Time, they don't read at all," Green said. Green attributed part of the problem to the excessive amount of television viewing, often spent watching poor quality programs. Green said when he was a child, he read for entertainment, like people watch television now. "Reading is like excerise. You have to practice. That makes you a reader," he said. Students are egocentric and have a lack of intellectual curiosity, Green said. "They don't really take pleasure in learning new things," he said. There is a vital minority that does keep up. Those

are the students that will be the leaders of tomorrow," Green said. Dr. Barbara Norman, chairwoman of oral communications, agreed with the study results. Today's student is less interested in current events or past history, Norman said. During the Vietnam era, students were more aware of activities going on in the world, but the 1970s and 1980s brought complacency, Norman said. Students are interested in their education from a materialistic standpoint. Less natural curiosity and a more pragmatic approach is taken, Norman said. "What will it do for me immediately," is the general impression, she said. Linda Jones, communications/publications director, said even journalism students, whose job is to stay informed, use lack of time as an excuse for not keeping up with current events. "That's like an artist who says he has no time to sketch," Jones said. Everyone has the same amount of time, but how a person chooses to use that 24 hours is up to them. The demands on a person's attention and time have created a need to escape. Television is an escape and as a result the news has become superficial, Jones said. Society too, is more superficial. People don't care unless an event touches them directly, she said. People are more likely to read a speciality publication than the newspaper, one that centers on their particular interest or hobby. That can limit the range of information they

Senate bill to aid teachers $215 million would be used for recruiting, training By Keith Purtell Staff Writer

By Brad Julian Staff Writer

Dr. George P. Avellano has been officially selected as Dean of the Graduate College by Dr. Clyde Jacob, vice president of acacademic affairs, after serving as interim dean for the past two years. Avellano was selected from a number of applicants on campus, and will replace Dr. Paul Lehman, who left the post to return to teaching. The administration generally waits one or two years before conducting a search for a new dean, Avellano said. Avellano said he wants to stress continued research on campus, support of the grantsmanship program (graduate student research with outside funding), and is continuing to review the 108 graduate programs offered by Central State University. The graduate colloquium prog-

ram was also cited for expansion by Avellano. "That program is where the faculty present papers to their peers, and we'd like to double it's size in the next two years," Avellano said. Avellano said the number of graduate students varies from onefourth to one-third of the entire CSU enrollment. "That's a substantial amount of the student population," Avellano said.

Professor receives award for role in business ed By Linda Morgan Student Writer

Dr. Betty Fry, CSU professor of adult and vocational business teacher education, has received the Leadership Award for 1990 from the Mountain-Plains Business Education Association. The annual award is based on the contributions made to business education in the Mountain Plains

get. "I think if you believe in higher education and you believe education makes you a better citizen with more understanding, then you should know all you can about everything you can," Jones said. Marcia Meiring, graduate student, said she watches the news and reads the paper some. "I don't go out of my way to read Time or Newsweek. We have less leisure time today and so much to do, we go for the quick fix, like reading the highlights in the newspaper," Meiring said. Students don't read as much because they have different priorities but the global environment we are in is creating a greater need for awareness, Meiring said. Kelly Bartness, radiology major, said she watches the news sometimes, but school and work limit her free time. "Today, there's nothing to focus on world-wide," Bartness said. Twenty years ago, Vietnam gave students something to focus on and they were more involved. "Right now, I'm centered on school," Bartness said. People are concerned more with personal interests than what's going on the world. Patrick Kelly, mathematics education major, said he reads the paper very little, but he stays up with current events by watching CNN and other national news programs. "The way the world is changing in Europe, the Berlin Wall, Gorbachev and his perestroika, these events have a very direct affect on our lives," Kelly said.

Group, a business organization which serves a nine-state region, Fry said. The award, which has been given since 1962, is presented to the recipient at the association's awards dinner during the annual conference, she said. "No one knows who is getting the award except the committee until that night," Fry said. This year's conference was held June 20-23 with the awards dinner on Friday, June 22.

A major federal education bill approved in committee could effect Central State University education majors if passed. U.S. Senate Bill 1676 proposes that $215 million be spent on areas such as recruiting and training of elementary and secondary-school teachers. Programs include forgiveness of student loans for those who agree to teach, upon graduation, in regions—or subjects—that have teacher shortages. Dr. Gladys B. Dronberger, assistant dean of the College of Education, said such a bill could help alleviate chronic problems in instruction. "For many years now there have been shortages in science, math, foreign languages, special education and speech and hearing," Dronberger said. "One of the

current shortages we are all concerned about is the lack of minority students that are going into the field of education." A decline in the number of minority role models in public school classrooms is expected during the next decade, Dronberger said. "In the same time period, we are expecting a larger percentage of minority students to be enrolled in school," Dronberger said. The results of funding can have long-range beneficial effects for the quality of education in the community, Dronberger said. "In the case of just the shortage areas, sometimes just that little incentive or that assistance will get a very capable person into the classroom who would not have the opportunity otherwise." Dronberger said the lack of appropriate role models in classrooms can prevent students from pursuing their talents and career interests.

"They may never see that they have the opportunity to go in that direction," Dronberger said. "They may not see that as an option if they don't see a role model fulfilling that role. If they never hear a minority teacher saying You can do anything, you can teach, you can be a lawyer, you can be a doctor,' they may never entertain that notion." Dronberger said some students may live in a family where no one has ever gone to college and it is not an expectation for them. Most of the shortages are due to college graduates who are attracted to jobs in industry and business that pay more money than teaching, Dronberger said. "Division of funds will depend on how the bill is written and how the regulations are developed at national levels," Dronberger said. "The funds could be expected to last about three to five years."

Workshop highlights Chopin By Judy LeBlanc Student Writer

The Chopin Society and Central State University music department conducted the third Chopin workshop and piano competition last weekend. "Chopin was a romantic composer and appeals to the public as a whole," said Jan Steele, associate music professor and founder and president of the society. "The literature (musical composition) is always interesting and people relate to the music from this period, and Chopin music in particular."

About 80 students and teachers participated in the July 12-14 event, which included lectures by two renowned classical pianists, evening concerts, and two levels of piano competition, Steele said. Michael Gurt, Julliard graduate and professor of piano at Louisiana State University, conducted a class in "Pedalling in General— and Pedalling Chopin Literature in Particular." He also performed in concert in Mitchell Hall Thursday night. "Chopin was the only great composer who wrote exclusively for the piano," Gurt said. "He had one of the most individual styles.

If you hear a composition, you can tell in three notes that it is Chopin." Polish pianist and author, Ruth Slenczynska, artist-in-residence at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville, lectured on "Twelve Characteristics to Look for in Chopin Literature." Slenczynska, critically acclaimed as "the world's greatest woman pianist," performed in concert Friday evening in Mitchell Hall. Twelve entrants competed for cash prizes in both short and long composition categories. Final recital competition was judged by Slenczynska and Gurt on Saturday evening.

conversation between Lumry and Roger McMurray, Resident Hall Association vice president, about a memo regarding policy changes concerning assistant and head residents, Lumry said. "The memo was addressed to assistant and head residents, but it did not indicate confidentiality," Lumry said. "If housing had willingly listened to their staff I believe that none of the staff would have felt a need to talk about it," Lumry said. Lumry said he doesn't want to bring official charges up against anyone.

"I would like to see better communication between housing and residence staff," Lumry said. "I really have nothing against the housing department," Lumry said. "I think we have one of the best residence programs in the state. "I just don't see the reason for an employee to be reprimanded and threatened with further disciplinary action for discussing open policy with someone," Lumry said. The Vista was denied comment from both Robert Fields, director of residence housing, and Van Duyn.

Ryan said in a phone interview that although the situation was not "conduct probation" as described in the student handbook, questions concerning Hamilton directly had to be referred to the administration's attorney. Ryan agreed to discuss only general university rules regarding student discipline. There are circumstances besides unpaid fines or fees which may be the basis for a hold, Ryan said, "but they're not in the student handbook." Ryan said he didn't know exactly which reference contains a description of the rule allowing such unusual situations.
