Overcrowding "crisis" exists, Lillard states Bush summons staff to brief Gulf situation WASHINGTON (AP)—President Bush summoned his Cabinet for a post-vacation briefing on the Persian Gulf crisis Tuesday while two congressional teams ended a first-hand look at the situation in the region. The president, returning to the capital just five days before he holds his third summit with Soviet President Mikhail S. Gorbachev, also was dispatching two top aides to solicit donations from wealthy allies to cover expenses of the massive U.S. military operation in the gulf region. Bush ended a three-week vacation in Maine on Monday evening and scheduled the morning meeting with his Cabinet.

Central State University is in the midst of a "crisis" due to a lack of classroom space with no immediate solution in sight, said President Bill Lillard. A multipurpose classroom building and a two-tiered parking facility would increase CSU's ability to serve its students, Lillard said. "We're not asking for the Taj Mahal or a pie in the sky for the future," Lillard said.
"We're saying our students have needs that are here now." Initial efforts by CSU officials seeking additional state funding have met with mixed results, and legislators "haven't denied them, but they haven't been implemented or approved," Lillard said. The parking facility and the building, which have been tentatively discussed by Lillard and his assistants, could be constructed east of University Center, Lillard said. Funding for the building project would come from state monies or a bond issue, and
a student parking fee could pay for the parking facility, Lillard said.
Theoretically, the multipurpose building would group classes of different sections into one location where students would near, for example, a well-known lecturer. Additional room could be used for physical science laboratories, Lillard said.
"We would hope to have varying-sized classrooms up to 80 or 100 students," Lillard said. "We do not want any sectioning for 300 or 400 students; we do not prefer to teach our students that way."
White House aides, meantime, worked intensively to prepare for Sunday's superpower meeting in Helsinki, Finland, announced on unusually short notice last weekend. The aides prepared for the possibility of a Friday departure, giving the president a chance to meet with Finland's President Mauno Koivisto on Saturday before he sees Gorbachev on Sunday. Bush will meet with the Soviet leader for five hours, then return to Washington.
U.S. infant mortality rates at lowest mark WASHINGTON (AP)—Infant mortality in the United States inched down last year to the lowest level ever recorded, but the U.S. rate is still higher than many industrialized nations, officials said Thursday. "Although we've made progress in reducing this nation's infant mortality, we must do better," said Louis Sullivan, secretary of the Health and Human Services Department. The provisional data released by the National Center for Health Statistics would rank the United States below 21 industrialized countries on a list cornparing 1986 rates, said center spokeswoman Sandra Smith. The ranking is probably still accurate, she said. "We make progress, but so do other countries," she said. Please see WORLD WRAP on page 2.

Professor says easier grades linked to anti-draft movement By Mark Schlachtenhaufen
Staff Writer The Vietnam War initiated an era of easier grading to keep eligible draftees in college, and it still affects Central State University, a CSU professor said. But a cross-reference of administrators, faculty and students revealed a difference of opinion about current CSU grading practices. Some said existing standards harm the school image, while others said academic policy is adequate. An official with the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education academic affairs office said all state colleges are on a 4.0
system with an A being a 4.0. The regents have no blanket policy for faculty grading. John George, political science professor, said faculty grading was tougher when he arrived to teach at CSU 23 years ago, before the draft-avoidance mentality of the era. College was a way out of military service unless the nation's manpower need increased, said Bill Parker, College of Liberal Arts assistant dean. "Students that made their grades and stayed in school retained their non-draft status until graduation," Parker said. Now, colleges produce better students than 20 years ago, said CSU President Bill Lillard. Contemporary students have educa-
tional advantages. Technological advances accompanied the Vietnam Era, particularly in informational systems. The world has changed politically, and academically. "They have access to broad experiences and computer information that wasn't available 20 years ago," Lillard said. Today, a majority of professors grade easier than those who grade more stringently, George said. He upgraded his grading scale several years ago from a 91-100 for an A to 93-100. Most faculty members contacted by The Vista stressed that grading should be left to Please see GRADES on page 12.

Appeals court refuses to intervene, state prepares to execute Coleman OKLAHOMA CITY (AP)—A federal appeals court panel denied a request Tuesday for a stay of execution for Charles Troy Coleman, scheduled to die Sept. 10 for the shotgun slaying of a Muskogee man. The three-judge panel for the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver gave Coleman's attorney until Sept. 4 to file any petition for rehearing before the full court, chief deputy clerk Patrick Fisher said by telephone in Denver. The state Pardon and Parole Board chairman said he would not call a special meeting of the board to consider recommending Coleman's sentence be commuted. Gov . Henry Bellmon, who would have the final say on commutation, has said he sees no reason to grant Coleman a reprieve.
Groundwater safe despite uranium leak at fuel plant, officials say GORE (AP}—Uranium-tainted water at Sequoyah Fuels Corp. is in underground pockets, but the uranium has not contaminated groundwater used for drinking, Nuclear Regulatory Commission inspectors say. Sequoyah Fuels reported last week the discovery of water samples bearing 35,000 times the amount of uranium allowed by federal standards. The NRC inspection team, which included experts in uranium and groundwater hydrology, concluded a three-day investigation Aug. 29 at the uranium processing plant, located about 60 miles southeast of Tulsa. Sequoyah Fuels officials say they will spend the next week trying to discover how much uranium remains underground at the plant and exactly where it is.

Black group plans to expand alliance By Mark Schlachtenhaufen Staff Writer
The president of the Central State University Black Student Association said she hopes black students from four state schools will organize a mutual support alliance. Orlene Grant, BSA president, said students from CSU, the University of Oklahoma, and Oklahoma City University discussed the possibilities of forming such an alliance last year. Presidents of black organizations meet with students from OCU, which does not have such a group, Grant said.
However, no alliance materialized, and Grant said students from CSU, OU, OCU and Langston University might form a student support group this year. Grant said she is in the process of "getting in touch with" Langston students now. CSU's black student population of about 1,000, outnumbers the black population of OU and Oklahoma State University most years. Grant stressed that the BSA serves more than one campus student group. "We're not just a black organization," she said. "We want to work with all students." But, the BSA could be more ef-

White unions recruit students Part two
GAINESVILLE, Fla., (AP)—Some of the white student unions still being formed are simply trying to find a faculty adviser. Others are awaiting official recognition come fall or to gain enough members to make their entrance felt. So far they are attracting few active members—Wright's has about 10 since its founding last December. A pattern for the unions and white supremacist efforts is that they are either squelched or forced underground by opponents. The unions, which are connected by an informal network, keep their distance from white supremacists, at least publicly. A respected state institution, the University of Florida was once a
preserve of the state's white establishment. Now there are unwelcome sentiments and tensions on the campus where, under shade trees dripping with Spanish moss, the 34,000 students, 7,000 minority members among them, usually mingle with a polite civility. The White Student Union's first
meeting in January attracted 60 protesters, white and black, who wrangled with Wright and his supporters in emotional debate. The
second meeting ended early when a similar scene occurred. The next month, the moribund Campus Coalition Against Bigotry regrouped and staged an anti-racist protest. Black students react with puzzlement and dismay that the bad old days may be coming back. To me, it was kind of funny," said Brian Coe, a 21-year-old se-
nior planning to teach special education. But he was disappointed it gained official status. "I thought, if they can let something like that form, what's next?" Up north, the City of Brotherly Love didn't do it for Michael Spletzer.
While studying architecture at Temple University a few years ago, he assessed his opportunities as a white man and decided he was losing his edge and needed a platform to defend his rights. So in 1988 he prevailed on the university to allow him to register the country's first White Student Union. Dean of students at Temple, Kristl Wiernicki, said that after the White Student Union's initial stormy recruitment effort, when students of all colors tangled with the union in loud public debate, it vanished from campus. She regards the white student union as a passing trend, but says it was also important not to ignore what Spletzer and his apparently few comrades were after. What Spletzer was saying was, "We
don't want you to lose sight of us," Wiernicki adds.
On the urban campus, where every identifiable group seems to have its own unofficial corner in the student activities center, most people see the white union as part of the mosaic. Others called them troublemakers. "They're racist pigs," said Josephine Chiappetta, 20, a business major. "I feel the same way about the black students union." Those who gravitated to Temple's white union, said junior Michael Tilgham, are just disturbed that blacks get so much financial help and other assistance. "By starting a White Student Union, that's a way to express their anger," he said.

"We must keep our attention focused on results," he added, pointing to the national education goals adopted earlier this year by President Bush and the nation's governors.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP)—They rushed into Okla-

When Census Bureau employees rummaged through back alleys and went door-to-door to count heads earlier this year, the biggest concern facing Oklahomans was whether they would lose one of the six seats in the U.S. House of Representatives.

College funding unfair to public
T
he passing of House Bill 1017 has been viewed by some as a sign that education is becoming a state priority, and an opportunity everyone will have an equal chance to pursue. Don't bet on it. That ideal means nothing to a relatively small interest group with their own agenda. These powerful forces are resisting efforts to equitably fund public education. And it's not just those who want to repeal HB 1017 and cut state funding. It's those who think one or two universities should hog all the money. For example, the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education have doled out a fortune to the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University, the so-called "research universities," while the nine regional universities are trying to make ends meet. For 1990-91, the state regents allocated $137,157,679 to OU and $138,192,719 to OSU, while Central State University, the third-largest university in the state, was allocated only $26,101,235. One argument for this precariously unbalanced situation is that the two research universities do more for the state's long-range economic interests. Of course they do more, they get more. That's why they do more. Get it? Considering how our society is tormented by disharmony and violence, one wonders what these research scientists are doing right now to alleviate our worst problems. It seems that a bunch of number crunchers want to send genetically-engineered people to Mars, while the vast majority of down-to-Earth working people are struggling with the world's social problems. How do the "research universities" spend such disproportionate funds? If asked, they say labs and special instruction cost a lot. But a tour of their campuses will show it's being spent on a lot more than microscopes for technology-worshipers or lawbooks for budding ambulancechasers. At OU, they have almost completed a $100 million private-donation fundraiser. One hundred million dollars would be greeted at a school like CSU with the astonishment of an atheist finding a burning bush. The favored sons and daughters have a good life, and their families and their families' friends are going to make sure it gets even better, even at the expense of everyone else in Oklahoma. Meanwhile, the regional universities are graduating professional people who are of practical use to the community, state and society at large. This entire dilemma is an example of the priorities maintained by a rich elite who live in an ivory-towered fairyland, remote from majority concerns. Among those who use cliches, it's called "fiddling while Rome burns."

Fraternity conspiracy complaint, politician using campus draw ire To the Editor: If there is one thing worse than an "obnoxious fraternity member," it is a blatant liar. I was amazed at the misleading information in Gary Toler's article. First, I would like to point out that there are only two fraternity members in the Student Association. Toler also states in his article that fraternities "get together and decide who's running for what ofTo the Editor: I am writing in response to a letter published Aug. 28. Because I am a freshman, and therefore new to college, I have no previous knowledge of the "peverted election process" that Gary Toler spoke of. But by being very active in student government in high school, I know that student governments work only if the students work with them. I realize that fraternities can play an important part in shaping school government. Fraternities and sororities are groups of people who share common interests, and are generally friends. It only stands to reason that friends would turn out to support a friend runTo the Editor: I enjoyed the campus activities fair and meeting all of the organizational representatives and those from the Chamber of Commerce.

Is donating money to the Fraternal Order of Police perverted? And finally, is 40 hours of community service to the Big Brother, Little Brother Organization perverted. Toler, your proposal to draw
names from a hat not only discredits your name, but also your article. This is my first and last response to you through The Vista, but if you or anyone else would like more information about what fraternities do for their communities, please contact me at 319 E. Main, or 341-9831.
ning for public office. As for the fraternities getting together to boost the office of one political candidate, it is testament to the addage "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours." But the Greek system at CSU is very small, composing less than one-tenth of the total number of students. If members of fraternities are the only ones to vote, and fraternity members are the only ones to run, then it is obvious who will win. If a student is unhappy with the current system of government, he or she should work to change the status quo, not do away with government altogether. If Toler can run for president as a graduate student, I would encourage him to do
so. If not, I would direct him to find someone with similar political views who can. Furthermore, I believe that Toler should look at himself. He should ask himself: "If I were student body president, what would I change, and how could I get others more active in the student body?" I have found that the people who complain the most are the least active. It is too easy to complain about all that's wrong with the world. If you want to make a difference, then make a change. But you have no place to complain if you are not trying to make that change.

Could this be a violation of state law? I would appreciate it if Central State University would limit the organizational fairs to only those organizations which would benefit students. It is inappropriate to have booths for political candidates, especially since only one candidate was represented.
I talked to representatives from David Walters' campaign office, as well as from Vince Orza's and Bill Price's headquarters. They said they were never notified about this campaign opportunity or invitited in any way, shape or form.

An educational exhibit depicting the life and times of Louis XIV will be displayed in University Center beginning Sept. 10, said Judy Elwell, director of student activities for the center. The exhibit, "The Sun King, Louis XIV and the New World," includes 42 photographs, drawings, emblems and texts that recreate Louis XIV, King of France and Navarre, his court and his love of luxury, Elwell said. "Louis XIV is fascinating because he was an absolute monarch whose wealth and power seemed to be unlimited. He is credited with creating the model for modem centralized governments and the model for dictatorships," Elwell said.
Louis also played a part in Oklahoma's history since he claimed the Louisiana Territory which included Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma and most of New Mexico. Elwell said she secured "The Sun King" from the Texas Humanities Resource Center at the University of Texas at Arlington Library, through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. The September exhibit can be seen through Oct. 1 in the south end of the second floor in University Center. Exhibit hours are from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, and 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. For more information, contact Elwell at 341-2980, Ext. 2455.
Employee wellness targeted by program By Barbara Howry Student Writer
Broccoli and sit-ups may sound boring, but Central State University faculty and staff can also have fun, participating in the new employee wellness program, said Terry L. May, assistant vice president for academic affairs. After Gov. Henry Bellmon issued an executive order that all state agencies were to implement wellness programs, May was designated chairman of the CSU project, and the employees' `Take Charge" Wellness Program was born, May said. May said CSU is breaking new ground with their program as it is one of only three university programs in the state. "I have been to four statetraining sessions and I have been the only regional university representative there," May said. Joyce Mounce, administrative vice president, was interested in an assistance program for employees who wanted to quit smoking,
so when 39 people indicated they were interested the first activity planned was a smoking cessation seminar. Employees and their families will be able to take part in activities such as water walking, water aerobics, open basketball, open swimming, weight lifting anctl walking at Wantland Gym and Broncho Fieldhouse. Other activities planned are a family picnic, monthly "brownbag" seminars and a coed evening volleyball league. These functions, May said, are also designed for employees' social wellness, offering them the chance to get to know the people they work with. May said he has a long-range goal for the program. "I want to do health assessments of participants when they start the program and then track them through time to see if their risk factors have decreased." "The wellness program could also decrease the university's turnover," May said "If people are happy with their job and like the people they work with, they may stay longer and make CSU their career."

Employment prospects for Central State University students enrolled in the special education program are bright, according to Dr. Darwin E. Waterman, curriculum and instruction coordinator. "The Oklahoma City school district is still eight special education teachers short. I think there will always be a shortage," Waterman said. "There is no shortage within the Edmond school district, but it is often a hard position to fill," said Dee Goolsby, of the Edmond Public Schools superintendent's Dffice. Waterman said the special education program began at CSU about 10 years ago within the department of curriculum and instruction. The program leads to a certificate in one of four areas: emotional disturbance, learning disability, mental retardation and physical handicaps. "Special education is a federally mandated program, and the public schools receive federal funds to assist in handicapped education," Waterman said. According to Waterman, the number of university students enrolled in the special education program hit a high point in the early 1970s, declined in the 1980s, and now seems to be coming up again. "We are trying to meet the needs of public education," Waterman said. Admissions records show there are more than 1,200 students enrolled in 67 course section: listed under special education.

Central State University has a networking tool available to help commuting students, but it is not being used, according to Judy Elwell, student activities director. A commuter bulletin board is posted on the first floor of the University Center outside the Oklahoma Room. On Thursday, there were no names posted on the board, Elwell said. "The board has been up for two years and is hardly ever used. I
don't know why, but I assume its not used because the students are not aware its there. Certainly, with the situation in the Middle East and rising fuel prices, we may see more car pooling," said Elwell, who has managed the commuter bulletin board since 1988. The board displays the Oklahoma City metropolitan statistical area divided into 11 sections. Each section has two hooks designed to hold cards. Driver and rider cards are provided so interested parties may exchange information. Elwell encouraged all commuting students to take advantage of the board.
I'd never have believed that one little computer could make such an incredible difference in my academic and working life. Miriam Stoll B.A. History, Dartmouth College M.B.A. Stanford Graduate School of Business
"I became a Macintosh convert in business school. `At our computer lab I'd always find lines of people waiting to use the Macintosh computers, while other computers just sat there. So I had a choice: wait for a Macintosh, or come back at 6 Am to grab one before they'd all be taken. `After business school, I took a job at a large bank and used my Macintosh for producing everything from spreadsheets to a company newsletter. "Today I use Macintosh to help me run my own management consulting firm.When I give a presentation, I can see in people's faces that they're really impressed. And that makes me feel great. "Sometimes I take Friday off, put my Macintosh and skis in the car, and head for the mountains. I ski days and work nights. It's perfect. "You know I can't say where I'll be in five, ten, or fifteen years, but I can say that my Macintosh will be there with me
Candidate arrests two supporters MUSKOGEE (AP)—Two women who allegedly campaigned on a Muskogee street corner in too-brief T-shirts were charged with indecent exposure after the candidate whose signs they were waving placed them under citizen's arrest. Rep. Jeff Potts, D-Muskogee, placed the two women under citizen's arrest Aug. 26 after he saw them waving his campaign signs at a downtown Muskogee intersection, police said. Melinda Miller, 22, and Debra Palmer, 28, both of Tahlequah, face municipal misdemeanor charges, Muskogee County District Attorney Drew Edmondson said. Potts said the women bared their breasts when they waved the signs above their heads. "They said they did it out of the goodness of their hearts. They did not know what they were showing," said Cpl. Steve Caywood, Muskogee police spokesman.

Public to bail out S&Ls he said. The 1986 bill was enacted to correct problems caused by the Recovery Act. Construction funded by S&L loans during that fiveyear window exacerbated the real estate collapse of the 1980s, Ice said. Management had no finan cial incentive to keep their institutions afloat, resulting in a "nothing to loose" attitude, and no watchdog to look for impending trouble, Ice said. Decentralization, which included the move to create a larger number of smaller banks, didn't improve the govern-
loan debacle, said Randal Ice, assistant finance professor. Staff Writer Among the causes are: high inflation beginning in the early Central State University stu- 1970s, high interest rates, condents and employees could pay up gressional deficit spending, to $31 million dollars to bail out Reagan administration legislafailed savings and loan institu- tion, management problems, tions, according to federal and huge costs, Ice said.

ment's ability to manage the industry, Ice said. But, because the problem is so complex, blame for escalating savings and loan failures cannot be placed on one federal branch, Ice said. The government has promised to prosecute savings and loan offenders, but many taxpayers are not appeased. A CSU student said American voters lack the ability to make an informed decision about politicians who know it's "political suicide to even be close to" the S&L issue.
Campus rapes up; reports low By Marie Bigger
Student Writer
Sexual assaults against women on college campuses are on the rise. But it remains the most underreported crime in the criminal-justice system. According to a July 23 article in Newsweek, an estimated 75 percent of all rapes occur among people who know each other. "Our last reported rape at Cen-
tral State University was in 1987," said Sgt. Doris Dunn, CSU police officer. "We're not naive enough to think it doesn't happen," Dunn said. "It just doesn't get reported." A former CSU coed reports: "My date was a popular athlete at school. We had had sex before. We went to his apartment. His roomate was upstairs. He made a move on me, I tried to move away. He wouldn't stop." "Don't ask me what goes

"This is happened a long time ago, it still wrong. This situation will take top affects me in ways I'll never priority to investigate, and we will bring charges." Dunn said. know." Sometimes women don't report Students shouldn't take chances acquaintance rape because of fear with new acquaintances, Dunn for getting in trouble themselves, said.

and be assertive in saying "no." "Last year we escorted 1,526 students across campus," Dunn said. "Students shouldn't walk alone at night. Call the campus police, we'll be glad to give an escort." Monthly meetings are being held in East Hall called "Sex in the Lobby," the next one is Sept. 6 at 10 p.m. The subject is date rape. It is open to both men and women.

By Sam Powell Student Writer The Vista will add a new cartoon to its gallery this semester: "Tales from the Blind Side," the creation of John E. Pollock, an industrial technical education major. "I get my ideas from brainstorming, just writing down what comes into my mind when it comes. I look at ordinary, everyday activities and try to see how far I can twist them. When something strikes me as funny I write," Pollock said. "The general theme is to try to be funny and sometimes get a message across." "Cartooning is just a hobby now, but if it takes off, then look out syndication."
Pollock, a native of Del City, was a cartoonist for two years at Rose State College before coming to Central State University.

Thinclads reload for 1990 season By David Lobaugh Student Writer
Central State University mens' and womens' cross country teams have reloaded for 1990 in defense of their top standing in the Lone Star Conference. The men, who, last year were conference champs and nationally ranked, began practice the first day of classes. "Our men returned in good shape and will be improved over last year," Coach Paul Parent said. Team captains, junior Kyle Skartwed of Fort Worth, Texas, and senior Bill Uptergrove of Phillips, Texas, will be joined by sophomore Kenny Lemons of Del City, who just returned from a two-year stint in the military, junior John McIntosh of Oklahoma City, sophomore Richard Verge of Yukon and freshman Dana Steele of Oklahoma City. Junior college transfers Calvin Acothley of Haskell Indian Junior College and Brian Callaway of Cloud County Junior College will give the Bronchos depth. Four redshirt freshmen, including Doyle Arbuthnot of Edmond, Gary Hamer of Midwest City, Joe Ramsey of Owasso and Danny Walker of Oklahoma City will be on the 1990 roster. The women are looking to improve on a second-place finish last year. "By bringing in some junior college transfers, we've strengthened our womens' team," Parent said. The squad includes sophomore Roxie Brown of Turpin, senior Hollie Cherry of Edmond, junior Melissa Jones of Edmond, freshman Char Reed of Oklahoma City and senior team captain Melanie Mills of Moore. The earlier mentioned juco transfers are Jody Richardson of Hebron, Neb., who attended Cloud County Junior College in Concordia, Kan., and Anita Stufflebean of Whitewater, Kan., who attended Butler County Junior College in El Dorado, Kan. Both teams begin competition Sept. 7 at the Wichita State Invitational in Wichita, Kan.

The 85th Broncho football season gets underway Saturday as Central State University travels to Durant to take on long-time rival, 12th-ranked NAIA Southeastern Oklahoma State University. The series, begun in 1912, has been dominated by CSU, who holds a 42-12-2 advantage. The teams played each year from 1927-1977 and resumed the series in 1987. Last year, the teams tied, 12-12 in Edmond. CSU has lost its last four season openers and lost all five road games last year, including three in the final 40 seconds. Game time is 7 p.m. with live radio broadcast from Durant by KCSC 90.1 FM.
Correction Due to a printing error, the names of two Central State University volleyball players were incorrectly listed underneath their respective photographs in the Aug. 28 edition. Anita Parker's name was placed under Shawna Clark's picture while Clark's name was placed under Parker's photo. The Vista regrets the error.

the discretion of the individual professor. However, some said examples of inadequate professorial grading exist. Grading represents a summation of faculty and administrative efforts, and current standards are sound, based on competent faculty, Lillard said. But, there could be exceptions to the rule. "You can always find an exception (with standards) where you might debate a point," Lillard said. Individual professors should determine their grading structure, Lillard said, while the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Educa-
don enforce statewide higher education standards. As academic affairs vice president, Clyde Jacob helps mediate some university policies directed toward faculty members. "I feel like our faculty should be constantly encouraged to upgrade their standards," Jacob said. "Their standards directly affect the quality of our program." Faculty performance should be encouraged through "artificial tools" of the university, Jacob said. For example, students fill out evaluation forms for individual professors. Dr. Phyllis Thornton, computer science assistant professor, said grading is fine the way it is, and
-,4■1 professors should control their own systems. The difficulty of instructors' tests is a subjective decision. Dr. Charles Whipple, psychology professor, said grading should be upgraded and it "would be better for our image. "We need to let the public know that that's not the way it is for all students," he said, referring to the fact that some Oklahoma students get through college without the ability to read. Dr. Judith Wakefield, assistant psychology professor, agreed with Whipple, and said tougher grading would result in an improved student.
