Caucus to advocate women's issues By Cynthia Chung
Staff Writer
W
omen's advancement at the administrative level is an issue that will be brought to the forefront this fall with the creation of the UCO women's caucus. Dr. Roberta Sloan, faculty senate president and chair of the caucus, touts the new organization as "an advocate for and a source of information regarding women's issues on the campus." The lack of women at the upper management levels has to be recognized as a problem, Sloan said. Sloan, in her ninth year as a professor of oral communication, said she was spurred to action by a growing sense of frustration with the "lack of
understanding on the part of some men in power." "We need a difference in gender for different points of view," Sloan said. Women are essential at the upper echelons of education because they represent what half the population thinks, Sloan said. To date, only one woman—G. Kay Powers, dean of Math and Science, has penetrated the male monopoly in the administrative domain. No vice presidents or are women. Dr. John George, professor of political science and one of two male sponsors of the caucus, agrees that women are underrepresented at highlevel positions. The purpose of the caucus, George said, is to "focus the attention of women and fair-minded men on YSee WOMEN'S CAUCUS, Page 3

Minimum wage workers to receive pay increase By Judy Simpson
Staff Writer
T
hanks to the passage of the minimum wage•bill, student workers will receive a little more in their paychecks starting Oct. 1. Aug. 21, President Clinton signed into law an increase in minimum wage from $4.25 an hour to $4.75. A second increase to $5.15 an hour, will take effect Sept. 1, 1997. Workers who earn part of their income through tips will still receive $2.13 an
hour unless gratuities don't match the new minimum wage. The law also allows for a "training wage" of $4.25 an hour for employees under the age of 20 for the first 90 days on the job. The new minimum wage will effect slightly more than 600 student employees on campus. "We have already placed sufficient funds in the budget to cover the minimum wage raise," said Sharon Martin, director of budgeting. The measure initially didn't receive the support of the Republican-dominated
congress sighting negative effects to small business. Pressure from moderate GOP forced the conservative Republicans to allow a vote. The bill passed with $22 billion in tax breaks mostly for small business. One of the provisions in the bill reinstates the $5,250 tax deduction for employers providing tuition for their employees retroactive June 1996 for graduate-level tuition and starting May 1997 for undergraduate level. UCO economist Dr. Michael Metzer, said the effects on small business, if any,
from the wage hike would be minimal considering the small portion of the work force that earns minimum wage. Metzer thinks the reason Republicans fought the issue was philosophical, "It does impose higher costs for some businesses and Republicans have clientele in the business sector." Vivek Satyanarayan, a senior MIS major, is one UCO student worker who is happy to get a raise in his pay, "I sure can use it, I think it's a good deal," said Satyanarayan.

Women in Higher Education.
The Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges have been presented with a unique opportunity. They could select a woman to be president of Oklahoma's largest regional university. A move that would shatter UCO's glass ceiling and open the doors for an increased number of women in administrative roles. But more important than the actual numbers of women in administration is the attitude of male administrators. For the women at UCO to have an audible voice its imperative for the men to listen up. The men of UCO have a chance to prove they are open to hearing women's concerns when the Women's Caucus holds its first meeting on Thursday. This isn't just a coffee class—issues affecting everyone will be discussed. While attendance isn't mandatory, it is ethically required. 4

CAMPUS QUOTES Do you think UCO needs a forum to address women's issues on campus?
CORRECTIONS ✓ In the Aug. 22 issue of The Vista, two new faculty members were omitted from the story on Page 11. The new members are Kathleen K. Molnar of the department of decision sciences, and James L. Thomas of the department of marketing. ✓ In, the Aug. 22 issue of The Vista, the prices quoted in Page 1-2 were erroneous. The CLEP test costs $50, and not $15 per credit hour. The DANTES exam costs $37 and not $50. Additionally, John Malone, director of testing services, was quoted of saying that tuition is $50 an hour. This was a reporting error. Tuition varies depending on the level of the course. The Vista regrets and apologizes for the errors.

women's issues (at the university)." Dr. James Bidlack, assistant professor of biology and the other male sponsor, said he was disturbed by the hidden agenda that discriminates against women in terms of recruitment, salaries, promotions and committee assignments. To elaborate on his last point, Bidlack said women usually are assigned to award committees while men clinched plum roles on budget planning committees.
"A woman is as capable as a man to sit on a budget committee," Bidlack said. According to the March/April 1996 issue of Academe, a bimonthly publication by the Association of American University Professors, UCO has 81 full-time male professors on its payroll as compared to only 32 full-time female professors. However, the average salary of these female professors exceed that of their
TV production students program Edmond station UCO students studying television production now have the opportunity to put their talents to work. The city of Edmond has contracted with the UCO department of Communication to do programing for Edmond Life TV, Channel 28. Students started working on various production projects during the spring of '96 for the station. During the summer students produced infomercials to highlight the public transportation system. Summer students produced a video explaining how to ride the Metro transit system. "We're trying to make projects more, 'real life'," said Dr. Jack Deskin, director of broadcasting at UCO. The spring production class of corporate video produced an infomercial for the Edmond department of sanitation. The video featured city workers and explaines the procedure for curb collection to residence.

male counterparts: $52,700 to $52,400. That does not indicate that the state of women at UCO is okay, Bidlack said. There is still a wide disparity in numbers, especially at the administrative levels, he said.

Japanese students learn English and American culture at UCO By Joanna Owen Staff Writer
T
wenty four of the students in Thatcher Hall aren't worried about the grade they'll get this semester. In fact, they wont even be here the full semester. For four weeks these Japanese students will concentrate on the English language and American culture. The Office of Outreach in cooperation with the Nova group based in Japan are teaching Japanese students the English language and setting up tours around the Oklahoma City area to better explain the culture in the United States. Brenda Bobati, director of the Edmond Language Institute (ELI), said the Office of Outreach has a contract with Nova for five years. The program runs this year from July 22 to Sept. 29. The program runs four weeks with 12 students in each group. Each group overlaps with the previous one for approximately two weeks. The students have English classes Monday through Friday where they are taught

Another Nova student, Keioko Sakamoto, 19, said she saved the money she makes working at her job in a funeral parlor back home to come to UCO. Sakamoto said although she went to an English school in Japan she wanted to learn the things that only being in the United States could teacher her. "I watch American movies at home but I have to read the sub titles, coming to learn here will help me understand the language and culture well enough to pay attention to the movie instead of the subtitles," Sakamoto said. She said with all of her family being back in Japan and having a job she likes, she doesn't want to live in the United States, but she would like to return someday for a visit.

Faculty, staff receive raise from Regents All UCO faculty and staff members will receive a 3 percent pay raise in January, thanks to $5 million from the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. But first things first. Some of the money was already earmarked for spending by the Regents. UCO had depleted its reserve funds in past years (recommended by the Regents as 8.3 percent of the institution's total budget). Therefore, two million of the five went to replenish the reserve fund. According to Nigh and the 1996-97 budget summary, UCO began the 1997 fiscal year with a reserve balance of $3, 477,280 (6.11 percent of UCO's total budget). Secondly, the university's teacher retirement fund was audited several years ago and deemed to be underfunded. Over $1.4 million has been set aside for that fund. The final mandatory expenditures'included the National Guard and Heartland fee waivers along with some utilities expenses. After those needs were met, $1.5 million remained. That will supply the three percent across-the-board pay raise for all of UCO's faculty and staff. Even through that's not as much as the 4 percent raise the faculty and staff received last year, Dr. Gayle Kearns, president of the UCO chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) and assistant professor of occupation and technology education, said she's satisfied. "I believe most faculty are very appreciative (of the raise)," Kearns said. "But they don't want them to stop here. "It's a good raise if they continue with three percent every year. Right now it's barely keeping up with the cost of living." —By Leslie Wakulich

Water towers may fade and a plaque seemed a bit insignificant for an Olympic gold medalist. Such were the dilemmas facing the City of Edmond advisory committee formed last year to honor the town's most celebrated gyMnast, Shannon Miller. But after months of research and meetings, plans are underway to construct a plaza in Edmond's Liberty Park dedicated to the spirit of the children of Edmond. A 10 1/2-foot bronze statue of Miller, commissioned by Edmond artist Shan Gray, a former UCO student, will serve as the focal point of the plaza. Carl Reherman, executive director of the UCO office of Outreach, and chair of the Edmond committee, said he anticipates that the plaza will be complete next spring or summer. The actual completion date depends on the success of the fund-raising efforts he is now spearheading with another former Edmond mayor, Randel Shadid, he said. "We will raise funds in two different ways," said Reherman, "One is cash and the other is inkind." In-kind donations already secured include the brick, concrete, engineering and electrical work, he said.

Reherman said the committee hopes to raise most of the $97,000 cash needed for completion of the statue by selling "mockettes" of the original statue. "They will be collector's items," he said. Twelve 26-inch bronze mockettes will be offered at $7,500 each and will earn each contributor a "Gold Sponsor" name-plaque, on the seven-foot base of the original statue. One hundred smaller mockettes will be offered to "Silver or Bronze Sponsors." Those contributing $2,000 become "Silver Sponsors" and receive name-plaques on the ringof-honor wall in the plaza. "Bronze Sponsors" receive a pewter rendition of the statue for $1,000. Reherman said he has sent a letter to UCO faculty, administrators and staff soliciting $10 contributions in an effort to obtain a "Silver Sponsor" plaque on the plaza wall under the name of "The UCO Family." "All funds are contributed to the Edmond Parks Foundation and are tax deductible," he added. Reherman said he wants to give everyone at UCO the opportunity to contribute to this recognition of Shannon Miller since her father, Dr. Ron Miller is a member of the faculty here and she is "an ambassador of the city."

Schwartz healthy and ready for challenge By Richard Tortorelli Sports Writer
Stacey Schwartz's Central Oklahoma volleyball career has been riddled by injuries after missing 31 matches the past three years. Schwartz hopes to change her luck and her team's fortunes this year. Despite the missed games, the senior outside hitter from El Paso, Texas made the All-Lone Star Broncho Conference Profile second team and the All-LSC tournament team in 1995. Schwartz had 361 kills and 325 digs that season and ranks fifth in school history in career digs. In the off-season, Schwartz intensified her conditioning and has stayed injury free. "It's the longest time I've been here that I haven't been hurt for once," she said. Schwartz said that she has seen a physical therapist to seek better health. The therapist put her through an extensive

"I'm a big competitor. I don't like to watch at all," said Schwartz. "It frustrates me, even if we're doing good I don't like to be on the sidelines at all."

Schwartz had 22 kills and 27 digs in those two matches, earning her alltournament honors. "She got that out of sheer determination, no question," said UCO volleyball coach Mark Herrin. "She just hurt real bad during that tournament. We had even talked about not playing her, and she just refused to stay off the floor and went out and really finished the year with a bang." Since Schwartz is team cocaptain and the only senior, the Lady Bronchos should look to her for leadership. Junior middle

Spirited tales haunt Mitchell Hall Theater By Joanna Owen Staff Writer
F
or more than 50 years a rumor of a ghost in Mitchell Hall Theater has made its way around
campus. Over the years people have reported hearing footsteps running up and down the stairs and seeing a shadow walking past. Some have said lights that have been disconnected reconnecting on their own and seeing the curtains move. Many of these things reportedly happened when no one else was in the building. Most people hear one of three stories about the ghost. It's been said that during the construction of the building a worker fell to his death from the rafters. It also has been said a lighting technician died when he fell from the grid above the stage area during the play of Our Town in 1940 or during the same play in the '70s. The building was built by the Holmboe Construction Company in the '20s. Although the original owner of that company is no longer living, his son, a child at the time, said he doesn't remember hearing about the death and no

mention of the death is in any of his fathers old paperwork. There also is no record of any death during the productions of Our Town held on campus in 1940 or in the '70s. UCO alumni, Bertha Scoggins a member of the cast in the 1940 production, said she couldn't remember anyone dying during the production. Her late husband was also in the production and he never mentioned a death in the theater. Soggins said she did remember during the time of the production that a male friend of the director died in Norman, but
You KNOW?
Men's brains shrink with age A University of Pennsylvania study has confirmed that men's brains shrink as they grow older. According to the Penn researchers, the shrinkage begins in the late teens or early 20s and eventually causes forgetfulness and crabbiness. "Men spend most of their time activating a certain part of their brain," explained Ruben Gur, a Penn psychology. "It is likely that this is the part of the brain that will suffer the most." A harmful buildup of byproducts gathers and destroys tissue in the part of the brain that men use the most. To clear out the buildup and give the overused part a rest, men should try using their brains in ways that are different from the normal routine. —By College Press Service

she had no idea if his death might have cause the ghost story to get started. 1941 is the first known account of the rumor being spread around campus. Alumni Bettye Johnston who was the editor of The Vista in the fall of 1941 said she had been on campus for approximately two months when the rumor made it to The Vista office. She said because it was her first year at UCO and she didn't believe in ghosts she chose not to spend the time investigating the rumor. Different individuals working in the Archives on campus said they had tried to
find proof that a death had occurred during the production in the '70s, but nothing could be found. Dr. Margaret Flansburg, professor of humanities and philosophy, said the death of the man, the fact that Our Town is based somewhat on a ghost and the time frame being so close to when America became involved in World War I could lead to a story of a ghost getting started on campus. "Theaters have a quality to them that makes them a very popular places for ghost stories to originate," Flansburg said. She said her rationality to the story is the building is old and it might cause peoples imaginations to run wild. "There is something about the appeal of these kinds of stories, that there is another kind of reality there that is interesting to deal with," Flansburg said. "It's fun to have that kind of shared story telling, it even gives the building some sort of validity, some time when it's more than just a building but it sort of has on going life in it." She said something might have happened on campus or somewhere in Edmond and the incident could have translated to a more convenient spot at Mitchell Hall and the ghost story On) began.
