CSU teaching programs House plan could expand By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer

Central State University may need to offer more specialty courses and increase faculty size in its early childhood education program if a 10-point plan for improving education by House Speaker Steve Lewis, D-Shawnee, passes the Oklahoma Legislature in November, the program's coodinator Dr. Janice Johnson said. On Aug. 29, Gov. Henry Bellmon and legislative leaders appointed a 37-member task force to look into Lewis's proposal, to recommend education reforms and to develop a way of paying for those reforms. The deadline for the panel's recommendations is Nov. 6, when the legislature reconvenes in special session after a 10-week recess. "The plan, among other things, intends to provide an all-day kindergarten and to have programs for 4-yearolds," Johnson said. "CSU may add more specialty courses, offer more sections of courses and increase the program's faculty size, assuming the plan is approved." The CSU program currently has two full-time faculty, Dr. Mari Scott and Johnson. Dr. Kaye Sears, a member of the home economics department faculty, teaches part time in the program. Scott and Johnson

teach 150 to 200 students in 10 classes this fall. "We can't increase section sizes now because of a shortage of teaching staff. That's also why, some courses (in the program) are offered once every third semester, some once a year and some every semester," Johnson said. "We would need at least two more full-time, qualified instructors and offer the courses twice a year because the state would need twice the number of kindergarten teachers it has now," Scott said of the plan's early childhood component. Johnson said the bachelor's degree in early childhood education was instituted at CSU as a result of a federal grant in June of 1972, and the master's degree of the same program was implemented in 1981. The program is designed to prepare students to meet the needs of children during the first eight years of life, which are the most critical period in a child's development, Johnson said. "CSU is the only institution in the state which offers teachinglevel bachelor's and master's degrees of this program in it's College of Education," Johnson said.

Similar programs, under different names, are being offered by two o ther hollheges in the sstate, t e, b o t offwhich c grant nonteaching certificates, Johnson said. The University of Oklahoma offers an undergraduate program called human development, while Oklahoma State University's program is oriented toward family relations and child development, Johnson said. According to the 1986 program review, 28 CSU students were awarded the bachelor's degree and 50 students graduated with the master's degree from 1981 to 1985. Johnson said the review is updated once every five years by CSU's College of Education to determine student enrollment year by year, to indicate the number of CSU graduates from the program, and to reevaluate the program's goals and objectives. "I'm proud of the program's strength and success," Scott said. "Most of our graduates have found job opportunities because of their practicality. We emphasize issues that teachers run into daily in classroom situations, such as, having to accommodate poor, sick and hungry children."

Central State University's administration has installed a new on-line, integrated, real-time accounting and purchasing system costing $209,000, Purchasing Director Ron Mattingly said. "The new system, called CUFS (College and University Financial System), was actually installed in October of last year. It went on-line in the business affairs office and the budget office in CSU's computer center about two months ago. We hope to extend the system to the entire campus by July 1 of 1990," Mattingly said. Mattingly said the computerized batched accounting system previously used by the administration was developed about 20 years ago and incorporated various individual programs, Mattingly said. "The old system meant that everything was first done manually on paper and then was batched (put into computer) on a monthly basis. "Under the CUFS system, however, everything would be put directly into the computer by way of the terminals in each department on campus. "So, rather than having to

wait until the end of the month to check the status of something, as it always was in the old system, the information in CUFS would always be immediate and current," Mattingly said. The new accounting system was approved in September of last year by the Oklahoma State Regents for Oklahoma Colleges, he said. "Actually, discussions to install a new system were held three years ago among various departments at CSU. Two options were available at the time-either the computer center will design the new system or CSU will purchase a software package off campus. "Finally," Mattingly said, "a nine-member CSU task force set up early last year decided to purchase the system off campus, rather than having to wait two years and hire additional staff for the computer center to design a new package." The task force consisted of Philip Arnold, administration assistant vice president; Sharon Martin, budget director; Steve Schutten, internal auditor; Nick Widener, comptroller; David Koehn, assistant comPlease see CUFS on page 12.

CSU defensive back faces drug charge By Bill Kramer Staff Writer

The bail for Central State University starting linebacker Mike Bennett was set at $500 Aug. 31 following his arrest on a charge of possession of drug paraphernalia, according to Special Judge Charles Humble's aide. The football standout was arrested Aug. 23 by CSU campus police after a smoking pipe with drug residue was found in his dorm room in East Hall on the CSU campus, police said. Bennett was then tranported to Oklahoma County Jail where he was released on bail until his arraignment. The 5-foot 9-inch, 230-pound junior, has been the leading tackler for the Bronchos the past two seasons. Bennett earned

first-team All-District honors last season and second-team honors in 1987. Mike Kirk, CSU sports information director, said Bennett will be able to remain on the Broncho football team for the entire season. "The matter has been settled to our satisfaction and he will be able to play this season," Kirk said. "Unlike the case with Jerry Johnson, who was suspended and removed from the team after pleading guilty to a felony this summer, Bennett was charged with a misdemeanor and will not have to sit out any games this season," Kirk said. It is team policy, Kirk said,

Officials ignore censure professor's letter claims Open Letter to Dr. Clyde Jacob: Your comments in The Vista on July 13 indicate that you have not yet had occasion to study the reasons behind the censure of the administration of Central State University by the American Association of University Professors. I do hope you recognize the importance of removing this censure, as have both Oklahoma State University and the College of Osteopathic Medicine, now part of OSU. Emerging shortages of academics available for faculty positions will make hiring in future years very difficult even without censure as an added impediment. The AAUP censure derives from the firing of Dr. George Benz without providing due process, which took place in 1966 under the administration of President Garland Godfrey. Subsequent administrations have not responded to approaches from AAUP national headquarters intended to open discussions on the possibility of removing censure. Investigations by a represen-

tative of the campus chapter into two contested cases of the non-renewal of contracts of non-tenured faculty indicate that policies are still inadequate and inconsistently followed. The climate created on campus by such handling of personnel matters is affecting CSU's ability to hold faculty members, once they have been successfully recruited. Inconsistently followed personnel policies are harmful to

Letter students because they can so easily result in the loss to CSU of gifted instructors. There also seem to have been occasions at CSU when incompetent instructors, even alcoholics, were retained because they threatened legal action. Apparently CSU officials were not sufficiently confident of their correct handling of the cases to risk the scrutiny of the courts. Poor policies on dismissal needlessly expose officers of the University and the University itself to litigation and, potentially, to the assessment of damages. Members of the AAUP are committed to the introduction of sound procedures, especially the guarantee of due process because of the indubitable benefit to the entire academic community. The organization's standards have passed the test of court action.

Well over a hundred other academic organizations have endorsed them, including the Association of American Colleges, the American Association of Higher Education, the Association of American Law Schools, the Academic of Management and the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. For CSU to be removed from the list of censured institutions, two conditions must be fulfilled. The relevant personnel polides must be rewritten to conform to standards pioneered by the AAUP and in force at respected academic institutions throughout the United States. Secondly, compensation must be made to Dr. Benz because he was denied due process. Dr. Benz immediately gained a new position at St. Mary's University in San Antonio and has made a successful career there. Any reasonable compensation should prove satisfactory. I would appreciate the opportunity to work with the CSU administration and with the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges in the interest of qualifying CSU for the removal of censure. Dr. Mary Jane Riley President, American Association of University Professors CSU Chapter

Reader says pick it up Dear Editor. During the summer there were several articles in The Vista about ways to improve our campus to make it look as good or better than other college campuses. I have an idea that will at least improve the pride and cleanliness of our campus. Pick up the trash!

Letter Since this semester started, there has been a horrible amount of trash and garbage strewn all over the campus and inside our dorm, West Hall, in the stairwells. At least the trash cans are always full so someone is throwing things away, but others can't because the trash is so full and not emptied often enough.

Now I know that there are people hired to clean the dorms and empty the cans on campus„ but it seems the students could help. As the old saying goes, "Your mother is not enrolled here, so you'll have to clean up after yourself!" This rings so true! The state of Oklahoma is getting in on this idea with "Don't lay that trash on Oklahoma; and Oklahoma City is awarding businesses that are "clean and green" so why can't we get in on the trash-free idea? If people could come come up with ideas or slogans for a CSU pride pick-up, and incentive for the cleanest dorm etc., it may help. Mary Jane Dossett CSU Student

Terrill exposed Dear Editor. After reading the deceptive letter on Aug. 29 in The Vista, I feel compelled to set the record straight concerning the (Student Association) spring election. Randy Terrill has made a careful point in his letter not to mention who Mr. Stehr's "opponent" was in the election for Student Association president. This, I believe, reveals partially why this "opponent" was removed from the ballot. Randy Terrill was that mysterious unnamed "opponent."

Letter In a school-wide election there are many restrictions. In order to avoid disturbing classes, the campaign period lasts for only one week. A heavy responsibility then falls on the candidates to present a fair, informative, and honest campaign. The election committee, composed of senators and chaired by the vice president, must then look after the interests of the student body as a whole by insuring that the campaign rules are obeyed. On April 4 the committee decided by a unanimous vote to remove Randy from the ballot.

This action was based on the precedent established in the spring 1986 election in which Carla Krauss was removed from the ballot for violating the campaign guidelines. The cornmittee had no choice on the matter, based on the information before us (this included Randy's own testimony). When Randy appealed the election committee's decision to the senate,he lost his appeal. He then had the chance to appeal to the supreme court, but chose not to do so. Action was not taken just for the sake of doing so, but because of the benefit that it would yield to the Student Association (student body). If a candidate cannot obey the campaign rules how can he/she be trusted with the thousands of dollars in the SA budget? The president of the Student Association represents the students of CSU. Time alone will tell how well Mr. Stehr does his job. Fortunately, time has already told us about Mr. Terrill. Randy, you screwed up and paid the price. I hope that you will learn from your mistakes.

The girl was deaf. She had been taken to a government hospital because of complications in one inner ear. The government hospital's cure was the removal of both ear drums. Beeson worked with a Catholic nun to see that the girl got an education. He also managed for the boy to receive one year of college in Swaziland, but when he tried to arrange for him to attend in the U.S., the State Department would not allow him entry, said Beeson. The Peace Corps does not allow volunteers to own vehicles, Beeson said. He estimates that during their vacation time, he and his wife hitchhiked 6,000 miles across southern Africa. One vacation was spent crossing Zimbabwe, in June of 1980, only one month after the Rhodesian War ended. "When you see an automatic weapon cocked laying by you, your pucker just goes 'yeah, — Beeson recalled.

"There's no bigger ego trip in the world than helping someone. It puts a different set of colored glasses on you when you come home. It puts everything in a different tint."

CSU officials respond to audit request By Bill Kramer Staff Writer The efforts of two Central State University students have resulted in a petition requesting an internal investigation into the practices and policies of the CSU financial aid office. Kim Huffman and Sherry Boyer have decided to pursue their grievances with the financial aid office, intending to contribute to the establishment of an appropriately responsive financial aid process at CSU, Huffman said. "It is not our intent to promote an adversarial relationship between students and administration," Huffman said. "I think the students and administration could benefit from an improved financial aid department. "I know there have been some changes already with the reorganization of the office but despite the new appearance of the office, it still does not respond to the students' needs in a timely manner," Huffman said. Huffman said several things need to be improved, especially incidents involving loss of student paperwork and documentation, unreasonably long wait-

ing lines, unanswered or unreturned telephone calls, rude treatment by office staff, and frustrations caused by uninformed counselors and clerks. "Sherry and I hope this is a good time for the petition to be circulated because there is a new financial aid director now and it is our hope the new director may get financial aid rolling," Huffman said. "We can understand some of the attitudes of the staff in the financial aid office because of the workload placed on each of them, but we hope a larger staff can be obtained which is well trained," Huffman said. The petition will be available for signatures for an additional two to three weeks, according to Huffman. CSU Financial Aid Director Sheila Fugett said most problems students encountered this year were a result of those financial applications not received prior to the Aug. 1 deadline. "Many students just need to understand that when they apply late, they cannot simply demand an award letter be immediately sent to them. If students didn't meet the cutoff,

Student association elects senate speaker By Jo Pydynkowsky Student Writer

"If you don't like something," he said, "tell someone in planning or put a suggestion in one of the boxes around the campus."

David Slane defeated his only opponent, Terry LaFrance, for speaker position of the Student Association Senate Aug. 28 during their regular meeting in the University Center.

Suggestion boxes are located in University Center and in each of the classroom buildings.

Slane's first duty as new speaker was to ask for the appointment of LaFrance as deputy speaker. The appointment was unanimously approved. .

About weekend campus activities LaFrance said, "If we could count on weekend participants, we would schedule weekend events."

Joe Stehr, president of the student association, appointed Sean Slavin as director of academic affairs and Leslie Garr was appointed to the post of historian. Both were unanimously accepted.

In other actions, SA members approved the 1989-90 budget.

LaFrance fielded questions after the meeting from students. LaFrance said, "There's no better way to become involved, than to jump right in with both feet and get involved," when asked how students can get involved in the association.

The proposed policy concerning resident housing visitation hours was discussed but remained in committee for further study.In addition, Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president, has not approved the new provisions proposed for the Student Association Constitution and it was returned to committee. The Student Association meets at 12:40 p.m. every Monday in University Center.

they probably were not helped very quickly or efficiently," Fugett said. Huffman also complained of lost documents in the financial aid department. "I'll admit we did have a problem this year with the volume of paperwork, but there are many things to consider when students have complaints about the service they recieve," Fugett said. "First of all, we moved all the files into the new financial aid

Central State University's physical plant will begin shutting off air-conditioning chillers and pumps in selected buildings on campus as part of its energy management plans, Physical Plant Director David McClellan said. "As soon as the weather cools at night, the air-conditioning will be shut off after classes in selected buildings and start up before classes start the next morning. Where it is shut off depends on classload so as to ensure health and safety to the campus community," McClellan said. McClellan said manual operation of the system will continue until the automatic system can be put back in operation, sometime this fall. "The (automatic) system was not working since mid-July because some central lines have been cut," he said. In addition to its maintenance agreement with Oklahoma City-based Trane Co., the physical plant secured the services of the company's technician to

work on computers and lines that have been broken. "CSU's energy management system was operating at 10 percent capacity two months ago because other construction projects may have cut the lines, which run from the physical plant to the main buildings on campus. "The lines are still being repaired," McClellan said, "and the technician has now got the system working up to 30 to 35 percent operational, and he will continue to work until it is fully operational by the end of this year." The physical plant is also looking at a comprehensive lighting system and microprocessor equipment program that would greatly reduce energy consumption on campus, McClellan said. On the new lighting system, Administrative Vice President Joyce Mounce said the university is still negotiating with consultants of a consortium of energy-saving companies from Oklahoma and Utah so as to determine the final total cost.

"We hope to complete the negotiations within the next two to three weeks. By then, we should know what kind of energy-saving devices could be installed on campus, and whether the savings made from the devices could be used to pay those companies," Mounce said. "We think we'll make a difference (through the devices). Because of the size of the campus, we are trying to keep our energy use to a minimum," Mounce said. Mounce said the energysaving plans will be made in stages, beginning this fall. "Airconditioning changes will be made during winter and heating adjustments in spring to cause as little discomfort as possible to students," she said. McClellan said, "I estimate CSU's energy consumption to be fair, with a lot of room for improvements. Areas to be looked into would be monitored closely by the physical plant. "At one time, the Math and Science Building consumed a lot of electricity. At another time, it could be the dorms. It's very important that the money that we save through energy conservation be used in other areas," McClellan said. The physical plant had also put up signs to remind the campus community of the advantages of turning off light switches when the rooms are not used. "Be conscious to turn off all lights and equipment when leaving a room," McClellan said. McClellan said it's hard to set deadlines on energy management at CSU because of a tight budget and the workload of physical plant employees. 1-7 eta

New transmitter to boost signal By Theresa Morris Student Writer

the audience ratings will reflect this.

Central State University's classical music station, KCSC, is scheduled to be on-line in a new facility by Oct. 31, said Donna Peters, station manager.

"Until the new transmitter is in operation, the station is broadcasting at reduced power and even that (signal) cannot be tuned well," she said.

The final drawings of a $56,600 transmitter purchased from Continental Co. of Dallas and a $26,989 premanufactured, concrete building purchased from the ROHN company in Hayes, Kan., are currently under inspection by Jestor and Associates, the project's general contractor, said Larry Iverson, KCSC chief engineer. "An additional $18,967 worth of equipment, including some extra transmission line, assorted parts and an air conditioning unit remain to be purchased before project completion," said Peters. Funding for the new transmitter/building project was provided by listener donations and station memberships, she said. As long as KCSC continues to broadcast from its present transmitter, Peters said, the public cannot be served at the full potential of the station and

Iverson said KCSC has experienced approximately 15 days of downtime this year compared to the 24 hours most cornmercial stations experience annually. The majority of KCSC's downtime, said Iverson, is due to water damage to the transmitter caused by a faulty building and a lightning strike to the tower earlier this year. "We've had a rough year and everyone is anxious to get back to what we do best," Iverson said, "playing classical music."

Kappa Sigma's GPA takes first Kappa Sigma took first place in the interfraternal grade point average competition at Central State University last spring semester with an overall GPA of 2.82. David Johndrow, social director for Kappa Sigma, said that God, family, school and fraternity are Kappa Sigma's order of priorties. Although Kappa Sigma's GPA was first among the fraternities, they are pushing to do better this semester— striving for an ovarall GPA of 3.0, or better he said. johndrow attributes their success in grades to their un ity, knowledge and previous school experiences. "Getting into college is tough to deal with. We don't mold people here, we help them.

BronchosTimefall to Mavericks expires on CSU rally By John Lukehart Sports Editor Central State University's football team committed the errors, and the Universtiy of Nebraska-Omaha benefited with a 21-14 victory Saturday night in front of 5,000 fans at Al F. Caniglia Field in Omaha. The Mavericks opened the scoring with 9:53 remaining in the first quarter with a touchdown pass from Paul Cech to Bob Gordon. The play came on third-and-19 from the UNO 45-yard line.

UNO punt, Broncho tailback Pinkey Hurley fumbled on the CSU 37-yard line. The Mavericks recovered. UNO moved the ball down to the Broncho 14-yard line, but had to settle for a 31-yard field goal to retake the lead 9-7 with 11:44 remaining in the half. CSU drove to the UNO 34-yard line on their next series, but fullback Tim Tillis lost the handle, and the Mavericks jumped on the loose ball. Two plays later Cech delivered a strike to split end Victor Barnes for a 76-yard touchdown. The Mavericks attempted a two- point conversion, but the pass was incomplete. The Mavericks led the Broncos by eight points at the half, 15-7.

Bronco linebacker Keith Traylor blocked the extra point attempt. CSU came right back. The Bronchos marched 72 yards in 13 plays. Brento Vann dashed 25 yards on a draw play for the touchdown. With the extra point conversion, the Bronchos led 7-6.

UNO's defense allowed the Bronchos eight plays in the third quarter, but did not give up a first down.

CSU's defense held the Mavericks on their next possesion. However, two plays after a

In the fourth quarter another big play set up the Mavericks final score.

Bruce Martens galloped 47 yards to the CSU 8-yard line. Martens scored on the next play. The Mavericks' 81-yard TD drive gave them a 14-point lead with 12:29 remaining in the contest. The point-after attempt failed. Hurley returned the kick off 54 yards to the Maverick 45-yard line. Burgess marched the Bronchos down the field. On fourth down and goal from the four, Vann carried the ball into the endzone. The pointafter was good, and the Bronchos were within seven, 21-14. The Bronchos threatened, but turned the ball over on downs with 2:09 remaining in the contest, and on the final series the Bronchos marched to the Maverick 11 before time expired. Head Coach Gary Howard said the Bronchos played well with the exception of a few big plays. "We played quite a bit better, from the standpoint of being emotionally and physically

Howie you going to do its

ready to play, than we have in past season openers," Howard said. "Take two or three big plays away, and we would have won the game." Howard said he was proud of his team for not giving up. "Our guys played hard, we had a chance to win right up to

the very end," Howard said. "This was definitely a tough one to lose, but our guys will bounce back." "We need to eliminate the little mistakes and mental errors in order to compete, and win the close ballgames. We'll play in a lot of close games this season," Howard said.

Coach's Corner The pennant chase is on By John Lukehart Sports Editor ith just over a month remaining in the Major League Baseball regular season, divisional pennant races are getting fast and furious. In the National League East, the stingy Chicago Cubs are holding on to a 21/2 game lead over the St. Louis Cardi.nils. The New York Mets and Montreal Expos are close behind. During the final stretch of the season the remaining games are played within the division. Statistically, this should benefit the Cubs. In the 64 games played against the NL East teams Chicago has posted a 36-28 record, the best in the division. The Card i•ls, however, are only one game over .500 with a mark of 32-31. Chicago's edge is their combination of youth and seasoned veterans, and their never-say-die attitude. During the last week of August, Chicago rallied for three come-from-behind victories including one against the Atlanta Braves and two against the Houston Astros. In the latest comeback victory over the Astros, the Cubs faced a 9-0 deficit and came away with a 10-9 win in the bottom of the 10th inning.

Over in the NL West, it's a two team race between the San Fransisco Giants and the Houston Astros. However, going into September, the Astros are 4% games behind the Giants. I don't think even Pete Rose would want to touch this bet. Both the Giants and the Astros finished August by posting losses on the scoreboard. San Diego mounted a win streak in late August, but the seven game defecit should prove too much to overcome. San Fransisco also benefits statistically when facing opponents within the western division. The Giants have posted a 36-28 mark, the same record as the Cubs. Offensively, the Giants are receiving as much as they could ask for from Kevin Mitchell and Will Clark. The two Giants have batted in 110 and 94 runs, respectively. Mitchell also leads the National League in downtowners with 40. In the American League East, take your pick. Baltimore leads the division by one game, but Toronto and Boston are right on Baltimore's heels. Milwaukee has an outside chance, however the Brew Crew went on a 2-8 skid to close the book on August, and trailed the Orioles by six games. Boston, 9-1 in the last 10 games, looks to provide the toughest challenge for the Orioles in September. With 30 games remaining, it could be over in the American League West. The Oakland Athletics, defending American League Champions, have the best record in the big leagues, 81-52. The A's are holding onto a three game lead in the west over the California Angels. If you like comebacks, keep your eye on the Kansas City Royals. The Royals are four games behind Oakland, but in their last 10 contests Kansas City has posted an 8-2 record. Scheduling could benefit the Royals also. Kansas City closes the season with a six game homestand, three with the Angels and three with Oakland. Now that I have listed the contenders, I am going to tell you who is going to win their respective divisions and how. First the American League West. Is there any doubt? The Oakland A's have the best record in baseball. Granted the divisional race is close, but their skill and pennant experience will prevail. Out in the American League East the pennant race will go into the final week of the regular season, and the Baltimore Orioles will come out in front. The Birds' eastern division record of 36-25 is tops, thus my reason for picking the Orioles. Jumping to the National League West, San Fransisco has been in front too long to let it slip away now. Look forward to the Giants clinching the division pennant in mid-September. Now for the big one. In the National League East I am going to take the "Boys of Zimmer," the Chicago Cubs. Hopefully, sometime in late September, Harry Carray, the voice of the Chicago Cubs, will yell, "Cubs win! Cubs win! Cubs win!".

Spikers much improved in '89 Lady Bronchos take third in tourney, surpass '88 win total By Randy Anderson Sports Writer

The Central State University volleyball team opened its 1989 season Sept. 1-2, claiming eight out of 12 wins at the Southern Arkansas Invitational Tournament in Magnolia, Ark. The Lady Bronchos brought home more victories during the two-day event than during their entire 1988 season. Broncho volleyball, now in its third season after being discontinued in 1983, has dealt with many struggles the past couple of years, according to Head Coach Joe Curl. "A few years ago The Vista virtually recruited our team for us," Curl said. "We had no players returning and we were matched with teams that we had no business even being on the floor with." On Friday, CSU played Washita Baptist. The Bronchos won both games of the match by scores of 15-2 and 15-10. Later that evening in match two, Cameron was the next victim for CSU as the Lady Aggies fell by scores of 15-6 and 15-8. "There is no one I like to beat more than Cameron," Curl said.

"At this point in the tournament I truly believed we had a shot of winning the whole thing." Saturday morning match three pitted CSU against the host of the tournament, Southern Arkansas-Magnolia. The Lady Bronchos sputterd and lost the match by scores of 11-15 and 13-15. "I think that Southern Arkansas-Magnolia was probably the best team at the tournament," Curl said. "They had three or four players well over six feet." Later Saturday evening CSU went head to head with the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff. "There is no doubt in my mind that they had the most talent in the tournament," Curl said. "At this point in the tournament the temperature was really beginning to climb. It was well over 100 degrees down on the floor," Curl said. "I found out what kind of shape the girls were in." "Game one of Pine Bluff was the best game in the tournament," Curl said. "We played tough and won the game 18-16."

Pine Bluff didn't have anything left in game two as the Lady Bronchos easily breezed to a 15-1 victory. "We were just playing excellent," Curl said. "We were really playing our game." Grambling University was the opponent for CSU in match five. The Lady Bronchos continued their winning ways with scores of 15-10 and 15-9. Usually at this point in NCAA volleyball tournaments placing is determined. But for this tournament the four best teams had their statistics figured then competed in a playoff to determine the winner. Harding-Arkansas was the first match of the playoff for CSU and quickly blanked the Lady Bronchos 0-15. Not ready to give up, CSU fought hard but fell again to Harding in game two 13-15 and was eliminated. "Although we were awarded third place I truly felt like we were the second best team," Curl said. "We just ran into a little problem at the end of the last game." "We are a 100 percent better team than last year," Curl said.

ptroller; Bonnie Phillips, senior accountant; Maithreyi Manoharan, computer center director; Arthur Robinson, auxiliary enterprises assistant director; and Mattingly. Bids for the system were in the 5200,000 range. American Management Systems, based in Arlington, \ a., was granted the coniraCt last October because, as Mattingly puts it, "the CUFS is designed specifically for higher education." Mattingly said most other software packages looked into by CSU were actually private business packages that were modified for higher education purposes. Approximately $209,000 was spent to purchase CUFS, including technical services.

"The main reason it went online only last July was because of time spent to find any bugs (minor glitches) in the new system," Mattingly said. When the new system is extended throughout the campus next year, every department will be able to know immediately and exactly, for instance, the status of their requisition and how much money is available, the amount spent, to whom and when it was paid, he said. "CUFS will cut down a lot on paperwork," Mattingly said. "But it won't be a totally paperless environment because there are some people who still need to look at some paperwork." Though the new system's life expectancy is about 35 years, Mattingly said 20 years is more likely, to keep up with dynamic changes in the business world and technology.
