Benz's speech commemorates censure removal By Susan Reger Staff Writer
George Benz, a former UCO assistant professor of economics and sociology, waited 26 years to have his say in public.

Following investigation of the Benz case, the UCO administration was placed on the national AAUP censure list in 1969 where it remained until June 10, 1995, said Dr. Tom Guild, professor of law in the UCO college of business and president of the state AAUP chapter.

Law said he believed a recent Faculty Senate report on faculty raises surprised many members. The report states that raises were not the 5 to 7 percent increases requested in resolution last year. In reality, faculty received only a 4 percent raise instead of the 5.7 percent raise quoted by the administration which is padded by summer salaries and promotions, said Law. "Issues of raises will continue to be a hot topic," he said. Mike Shirley, executive assistant to President Nigh, said
Nigh was sincere in his efforts to try and give everyone a raise, but he was unable to speak about the figures on the report. Law said he believes President Nigh's initial perception of faculty was that it was underworked and overpaid. "He (Nigh) would joke about lack of faculty on campus in the afternoon," said Law. Apparently, Nigh had also joked at the end of an afternoon faculty meeting about everyone heading for the golf course for the rest of the day. "Faculty saw this as a barb
leveled in our direction," said Law. "Faculty works an average of 57 hours per week." Legislators share a similar misconception that teachers spend 12 hours in a classroom and that's it, he said. The fact is that teachers take two to three hours to prepare for each class, hold office hours, work on committees and take exams and papers home to grade on weekends, said Law. Shirley said he believes many in the public are confused about V See SENATE, Page 6

man, prone to using the Lord's name in vain, was
playing golf one day. He took careful aim at the first hole and sent a ball its way. It did not make it. "My God, I missed!" exclaimed the man. At the second hole, the ball whizzed a wide margin by. "My God, I missed again!" screamed the man, cussing and sweating. He didn't have much luck at the third hole either. "My God, I can't believe I missed a third time!" All of a sudden, the sky grew dark and a bolt of lightning struck the putting green. Where the man had stood is now a gaping charred cavity. The man crawls out shaken but alive. "Whew, that was a close one." Suddenly, a booming voice thundered from above, "My God, missed!" It won't be surprising if God feels that way about us, not so that He has missed the mark, but that we have fallen pitifully short Of His. The latest heresy is the politically correct Bible, which came hot off the press Monday. Hello, let's wake up to the facts, shall we? Is nothing sacred anymore? Can nothing withstand from the mob mentality of the politically correct? The entire Christian faith is based on the facts that the Jews did kill Jesus, that He is theSon of Man ano is seated at the right hand of God. Children are to honor their parents and wives are to submit to their husbands. Words in and of themselves are harmless. Nothing is either good or bad, it's thinking that makes it so. It's the motives that underlie the words and the spirit in which they are used that turn them into tools of mischief and weapons of war. In a country where one can set fire to the national flag, call women "bitches" and "sluts" in rap songs and banish prayer from public schools in the name of the freedom of speech, how is it that a vocal and paranbid few can dictate to us the proper way to use language? Let's go back to calling a spade a spade, and use it to shovel the muck of political correctness out of our lives. Xo

350 UCO freshmen will establish standards for achievement tests By Mike Gustafson Staff Writer
As many as 350 UCO freshmen will be offered up to $35 each to take tests that set the standards for Stanford Achievements Tests and OtisLenon Scholastic Ability Tests (SAT and OLSAT). The testing will be held at UCO between Sept. 18 and Nov. 10 to establish the national measure for Harcourt-Brace's ninth edition of the SAT's and the seventh edition of the OLSAT's, said John Malone, UCO coordinator of testing and correspondence. "College freshmen usually take one of these tests as an entrance exam for college," he

said. "The tests that the students will be taking could last as little as an hour and a half or take as long as four hours and 45 minutes." Students will be given either the SAT, which measures aptitude in school subjects, or the OLSAT, which is a test of key cognitive abilities, said Sylvia Lopes of the Harcourt-Brace Publishing Company. "The students will receive a test which has been selected at random by a computer," said Lopes. "Students won't know which test they will get." For information concerning test registration, call the UCO Testing Center at 341-2980, Ext. 2388, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Clinton expected to campaign for democratic ticket By Susan Reger Staff Writer
Clinton has handled the situation about as well as he could have and is not going to please everyone.
Although President Clinton has yet to formally announce his presidential candidacy for a second four-year term, he wooed World War II veterans and middle-class California voters over the Labor Day weekend. Labor Day marks the traditional start of political races during an election year, and Clinton was in his element a year to the day ahead of schedule. The 54 electoral votes from California represent one-fifth of the total number of votes needed to win the presidency, making California an essential state to win the election, said Matt Keyworth, president of UCO's Young Democrats. Keyworth said he has no doubt Clinton will win the 1996 election, despite many negative reviews. "Whether you like him or not, the guy is a campaign machine," said Keyworth. Clinton's lack of popularity has bottomed out and people are beginning to see a stronger leader, said Keyworth. "Early in his term, Clinton tried to cater too much to Republicans in an effort to be bipartisan," said Keyworth. "Clinton is more assertive now, as was seen in his recent anti-smoking campaign." Keyworth said he believes the president is strong on the domestic front as is evidenced by an improved economy. "More people are working now for better wages," he said. The president has been

Young Democrats president/ UCO criticized most for his handling of international issues, said Keyworth. "Bosnia put Clinton in a difficult position," he said. "Many people are sympathetic to the bombings of families but others remember the problems
with Vietnam. "Clinton has handled the situation about as well as he could have and is not going to please everyone." Keyworth said he believes health care will become an issue again because Clinton previously
ran on the issue of health care reform. "Mrs. Clinton was qualified for the task of health care reform, but many Americans believed this was not a suitable role for a first lady," Keyworth said.

"Someone like her with the same educational and legal background would be more acceptable to the public." Keyworth said he believes it is important that Clinton "sticks to his guns" and does what he believes is right. "Clinton was elected because most people thought his ideas were good and would like to see him do more," said Keyworth.

BENZ continued from front page
"Benz was quite a political activist and frequently came to the defense of students in trouble at UCO," said Guild. "In those days, administration did not feel restraint from breaking into dorm rooms and confiscating contraband or checking out coed-visitation violations." Guild said in those years there
was hostility on campus towards African Americans. "Benz helped the African American students start their first fraternity," said Guild. Benz was not afraid to take on administration when he believed their rights were being violated, said Guild. Through the years, little was done to remove censure from UCO until 1993 when the
AAUP-UCO chapter membership worked with President Nigh and the national AAUP office to remove UCO administration from the censure list. As part of the agreement to end censureship, Nigh agreed to invite Benz to UCO to give a lecture and used private funds to pay Benz a $500 honorarium. Benz returned the honorarium
to UCO at the end of the Monday lectureship to fund scholarships for UCO economic students. The local AAUP chapter raised $500 to award two students scholarships in Benz's name. Dustin Bahm, a UCO general business/legal studies student, and Sharon Kennedy, a UCO physics student were presented
with the scholarships at the lectureship. Guild presented Dr. Darry Carlston, UCO professor of physics, the AAUP-UCO Distinguished Service Award for service to AAUP, the university and the community.
The hiring of full-time versus adjunct professors was another issue discussed by the Faculty Senate. Law said Nigh had promised to try to consolidate adjunct professors into full-time positions, but this has not happened. "There are less full-time faculty this year than the previous year and the number of adjunct teachers have grown by
leaps and bounds," he said. "Adjunct teachers are not bad, but they are not expected to do what full-time faculty da, such as committee work," said Law. "This puts a heavier load on fulltime faculty." Shirley said it is a desirable scenario to have an appropriate blend of full-time faculty and adjuncts. "Occasionally, a CEO of a corporation will teach a class,
which is a good opportunity for students," he said. Shirley conceded that UCO has not always been successful in replacing retiring professors with other full-time faculty (for budgetary reasons) and that adjuncts have taken their place. Academic issues need to be looked at more closely by the administration, said Law, and it is time to allocate money for the hiring of full-time faculty so
UCO doesn't jeopardize quality programs, which will ultimately affect students. "All of the concentration has been on bricks and mortar," said Law. "The material body is growing, but the spirit has not kept pace." ,013
SENATE continued from front page
the time involved in the teaching profession. However, he said that from his conversations with Nigh, he did not gather that he (Nigh) believed faculty was underworked. "Nigh is aware that some faculty are doing more than others, but he has never indicated to me a problem," said Shirley.

UCO physicist aids Air Force in laser research By Nicki Cormier Staff Writer
Dr. John Guthrie, UCO's assistant professor of physics. spent a busy summer working on the Photolyric Iodine Laser at the U.S. Air Force Philips Laboratory in New Mexico. "The laser that I was working

on has been around since 1964. It was among the very first lasers that were developed, and work on it has been ongoing for 30 years. It is a device that can be improved indefinitely," Guthrie said. The reason it is called the Iodine Laser is that it is the Iodine atom that omits the radiation. The infrared
wavelength is invisible to the human eye, Guthrie said. The Air Force is interested in the laser because it has high power potential as a weapon. However, one of the downfalls of a high powered laser is that it is heavy, and weapons need to be light to go on an airplane, Guthrie said. There are also industrial uses

for the laser, such as cutting and welding. "I became familiar with the program through a friend who works there, but the Air Force also does a good job of advertising for this sort of thing (via) scientific journals and brochures through physics and science departments," Guthrie said.

SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING
By Nicki Cormier Staff Writer The physics department at UCO now has its own Home Page on the Internet. The Home Page has nine different areas for students to access. These include an undergraduate physics program, class schedules, enrollment information and a preengineering program. "Generally, a university sets up a Home Page from the top level for the entire university," said Dr. Weldon Wilson, assistant professor of physics. Most Oklahoma universities feel having a Home Page is important, Wilson said. These universities include Southwestern State, Northeastern and Langston, all of which are comparable to UCO. "As far as I know, this is the only Home Page on campus. For some reason, our university has dropped the ball on that." An added benefit to setting up the page was that the required software was comparatively inexpensive. "We hope to add other categories in the future. Ultimately, we will probably have 'professors from this department give information on specific courses they are teaching, among- other things," Wilson said. The access address for the Home Page is http://physics 01,UCOK. edu .
BEFORE TRUSTING YOUR FUTURE TO ANY COMPANY, ASK FOR SOME LETTERS OF REFERENCE. ou put more than just your savings into a retirement company. You put in your trust and hopes for the future, too. So before you choose one, ask some questions. How stable is the company? How solid are its investments? How sound is its overall financial health? A good place to start looking for answers is in the ratings of independent analysts. Four companies, all widely recognized resources for finding out how strong a financial services company really is, gave TIAA their top grade.
IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS, TIAA IS LEITER PERFECT.
TIAA received A++ (Superior) from A.M. Best Co., AAA from Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co., Aaa from Moody's Investors Service and AAA from Standard & Poor's. These ratings reflect TIAA's stability, sound investments, claims-paying ability and overall financial strength. (These are ratings of
insurance companies only, so they do not apply to CREF.) And TIAA—which, backed by the company's claims-paying ability, offers a guaranteed rate of return and the opportunity for dividends—is one of a handful of insurance companies nationwide that currently hold these highest marks.

For further growth potential and diversification, there's the CREF variable annuity, with seven different investment accounts to give you the flexibility you want as you save for the future.° Together, TIAA and CREF form the world's largest private retirement system based on assets under management, with over $145 billion in assets and more than 75 years of experience serving the education community.

BSA's version of "The Dating Game" By Leslie Wakulich Staff Writer
"If I agreed to be your banana in your special banana split, what topping would you be in The center dip?" This was one of many probing questions put to three freshmen women as part of "The Dating Game" at the Black Student Association's (BSA) 1995 Singles Convention, Sept. 8. The crowd roared with laughter as each of the women, view hidden from the eligible bachelor, nervously giggled before answering the question. "Bachelorette Number One, do you have an answer?" asked bachelor Spencer Robinson. "Chocolate," said Laquita Tisdale. "Because everybody likes to eat chocolate."
'Certain exclusions apply. Available in most areas
"Caramel—because it's so brown and beautiful, just like me," cooed Angelique Ray, Bachelorette Number Two. The third bachelorette, Marietta Benefee, said simply, "Strawberry." When it came to the final question in the round, the women seemed to be caught offguard. "If your sex life was a book, what would the title be?" "I don't read books, I don't know," said Tisdale. Ray was not shy with her reply—she let out a suggestive moan. Then came the moment of truth—it's time for Robinson to make a decision. Would it be Bachelorette Number One, Two or Three? The audience had already
picked its favorite: Bachelorette Number Two. "Bowing" to peer pressure, Robinson chose Angelique Ray. The women then emerged from behind the screen one at a time. Ray shared an unconfortable hug with Robinson, to whom she had now committed at least one evening. The couple won dinner for two at a local restaurant and a pair of movie passes. Along with "The Dating Game," food, music and door prizes provided entertainment. BSA President Jamie Nichols said she hopes the BSA made enough money from the convention to offer other events such as a barbecue picnic and a talent show to students free of Laquita Tisdale watches while Angelique Ray contemplates a charge. potential date's question.

Football: UCO has never lost to Fort Hays State, owning a 5-0 lead in the series. The two teams played in 1955 and '56. This will be the fourth straight meeting since the series resumed in 1992. UCO has not lost a home game in September since Sept. 7, 1991 when the Bronchos lost to Northwest Missouri 38 14.
Volleyball: On Sept. 15 the Bronchos will travel to Portales, N.M., to take on Eastern New Mexico. ENMU won the LSC champions in 1993 and have two returning starters to include threetime All-LSC pick Jennifer Globe.
Junior Abel Kahuni and sophomore Frank Simon provided a one-two punch as the men's cross country team captured the team title Sept. 9 during the Oklahoma Christian Triangular. Kahuni,a native of Zimbabwe, won the men's four mile race in a time of 20:19, just eight seconds ahead of teammate Simon. Kahuni is a mid-season transfer from South Plains Junior College and has been an indoor and outdoor NCAA Division II qualifier in the 800 meters for the Bronchos. Head coach Brian Callaway said though the team had some great individual moments, it was a team effort that won the squad their first title of the year. "Both Kahuni and Simon
were extremely impressive," Callaway said. "We had other great performances in Darrell Jeffries who took fourth...all of our runners posted great times during the event." Callaway said the women's squad equaled the success of the men. "Our women finished second in the triangular," said Callaway. Kate Samarija took fourth and Andrea Haley took seventh in her first collegian tournament. Callaway said Coach Paul Parent was pleased with the results. "I talked to him after the race and he seemed pretty happy," said Callaway. "I'm just thankful to work with a successful squad such as his." The Bronchos will hope to continue their success on Sept. 16 as they head back to Oklahoma Christian for an Frank Simon and Able Kahuni head to the finish as the men's cross country finished first at the Oklahoma Christian invitational tournament.

Defense highlights Bronchos 2-0 start By Scott Moore Sports Writer About a month ago, the Central Oklahoma Bronchos' defensive unit was not good. Just ask UCO defensive coordinator Duane Dirk. "They were pretty terrible a month ago," said Dirk. "It's a new group and it's been hard for them to play as a cohesive unit." But through two games, the Broncho defense has been instrumental in UCO's 2-0 start. The defense has allowed only seven points and 203.5 yards per game. So how are they now? "I'm really pleased," said Dirk. "They're coming along faster than what I thought. They continue to work hard and are playing well together. "They're getting better every week. They're learning and growing and making progress and making an honest effort to correct their mistakes, so I'm pleased." UCO has allowed just 68 yards rushing through two game and just 1.1 yard per carry. UCO allowed Southwestern to a total
of minus 11 yards rushing Saturday night. But is • Mesa St. and Southwestern good enough to measure a defense by? "That's a tough question because I don't know how Mesa St. and Southwestern are going to be this season," said Dirk. "We did a lot of things well in the Mesa St. game and then did some things better against Southwestern. "I think they were good tests at the time," he said. Not far down the road lurks Fort Hays state who the Bronchos will face at home on Saturday. The Tigers will come in ranked 19th in Division II and are coming off a 16-16 tie at The Broncho defense forced six fumbles and held the Southwestern State University Bulldogs No. 4-ranked Pittsburgh State to minus 11 yards rushing.

GOP scale weighs the Dole by the Gramm By Susan Reger Staff Writer
Three major candidates have thrown their hats in the ring to compete for the republican nomination for the 1996 presidential election. Currently, republican Sen. Robert Dole of Kansas, is the favored candidate because he fits the standard republican profile and is the party's elder statesman, said Keith Weber, president of UCO's Young Republicans. When Dole recently rejected a contribution from a Republican gay group, he showed Americans his views were closer to those of the Christian right, said Weber. "If you look at the results of the last election, many candidates who won were from the Christian right, said Weber. "This group is well organized and willing to beat the pavement to get their ideas across." Weber said he believes the Christian right wing is so active that candidates are trying to win their support. Dole will frame his campaign around family values, said Weber. Weber said he believes Dole's recent speech in California about the moral failures of the entertainment industry was an example of Dole's drive for decency in television and the movies. "Dole is also strong in the area of foreign affairs and has shown himself familiar with international issues on a senatorial level," said Weber. Other strengths have been his ability to articulate the direction the country needs to go as well as his talent for raising campaign money, said Weber. Weber said he believes it will be important for all Republican candidates to speak on the issues of family values, the economy and deficit, and international relations. Republican Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas is a viable candidate whose strength lies in balancing the budget and raising campaign money, said Weber. Gramm's doctorate is in economics and he co-authored the Gramm-Rudman balanced budget amendment. "He is the leading candidate among the Christian right and is famous for his conservative politics and pro-life beliefs, said
If you look at the results of the last election, many candidates who won were from the Christian right.
—Keith Weber UCO's Young Republicans president
Weber. "Gramm has a good `ole boy image and can raise campaign money like water." Weber said he believes Gramm personifies the theme of family values and has shown a willingness to address the issues of socially-conservative Americans, such as the issue of gays in the military. Some believe Gramm is too socially conservative and the public will determine whether this works for or against him, said Weber. The third leading candidate
for the republican nomination is Pete Wilson, governor of California. Wilson brings several things to the table, said Weber. "The issue of immigration is at an all time high in the United States right now," said Weber. "As governor in California, Wilson has addressed this issue head on." Although immigration has always been a foundation of American life, many people are concerned about its effect on the availability of jobs. The political question will be
whether Americans want to address the problems of immigration in the same manner as Wilson, said Weber. Wilson ran his campaign on the merits of Proposition 187, an effort to remove welfare from illegal immigrants as well as return them to their countries. Wilson has the experience of governing a large state, which historically has been an advantage, said Weber. "These candidates are seen as individuals who have dealt with the size and scope of issues involving large, diverse groups

of people," said Weber. Some Californians were disappointed when Wilson made his bid for the presidency after promising the Californian electorate he would not. There is an old saying: "He who wins California will more than likely win the White House." Weber said he believes Dole is still the favored candidate for his breadth and depth of experience. A recent appearance on Late Night with David Letterman was seen as a step to correct accusations of stiffness and lack of humor. Weber said if a viable thirdparty candidate arrives on the scene, the whole political atmosphere will change.

Commemorative book released By Leslie Wakulich Staff Writer In Their Name, a newly released book documenting the April 19 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Building, was made possible in part by images captured on film by five former UCO students. Photojournalists working for The Daily Oklahoman, Steve Gooch, Paul Hellstern, Doug Hoke, David McDaniel and former intern Mike Simons, shot almost 500 rolls of film covering the events following the bombing. Hellstern graduated from UCO in 1979, Hoke in 1980, McDaniel in 1978 and Simons this year. Gooch attended the university in 1979 during his freshman year. The best-selling book is packed with testimonials from survivors and rescue workers to letters from grade-school children. Many of the photographs in the book also appeared in The Daily Oklahoman throughout its coverage of the bombing. "I think the book is a fair representation of what happened," said McDaniel. "I told everyone that you have to go down and see the building to know what it really looked like. You can't know from seeing it on TV," he said. Simons agreed. "I think the photos (chosen for the book) do a good job of telling the story." The photographs were chosen by the publisher, Random House, with the help of a couple of Daily Oklahoman staff photographers. Simons, who began his internship at the newspaper in January, said he feels badly about gaining career success because of the disaster. "It's a double-edged sword," he said. "(But) I'm so proud, I think I did a good job." "As a photographer you have good shooting weeks and bad shooting weeks. That week, I had one of the best shooting weeks of my life." "I feel awful that's what it took for me to have a good shooting week. I would've rather had a good week shooting kids playing in a sprinkler," he
said. Even professionals trained. in their field often have a hard time dealing with emotional issues. "It had to be a personal thing; we dealt with a lot of people being hurt and killed," said McDaniel. "We're professionals, we've got a job to do." The photographers said their education from UCO gave them the technical training to handle the situation, but nothing could prepare them emotionally for the destruction surrounding them. "My camera didn't separate me from the devastation. I just shoved it deep down inside me," said Simons, who worked 13hour days covering the bombing. Dr. Woody Gaddis, professor
of photographic arts and journalism since 1969, taught all five photographers at UCO. "I'm awfully hesitant to personally take any credit (for the students' success)," said Gaddis. "I'm not all convinced that you can teach photography, you more or less guide them." "The best a teacher can do is tell students about their mistakes and hope they don't make them too," said Gaddis. Simons said he thinks there should be a journalism class to help students deal with death, similar to those offered to medical students. "In a short time, I've seen more death than most people will in their entire life," he said, "I just don't know how to deal with

The first thing I thought of when I heard Royal Trux was The Black Crowes. But I think their new album, entitled Thank You, is more of a cross between Mother Love Bone, The Black Crowes and a young garage band from urban America. These five skinny punks filled Thank You with 10 toe-tapping, '70s style rock and roll songs. Royal Trux creates the kind of music suitable for parties or just for drinking with your friends. Although they are pretty
good, Royal Trux does get on one's nerves, the main reason being the singing ability of the lead singer. This band needs to drop Jennifer Herrema like Faith No More dropped Mark Arm. Herrema's voice is rough and out of tune. Sometimes this fits the music, but after a while, her grating voice overwhelms the whole CD and you feel like thrashing it. Granted, the guitarist plays some pretty good lines and choruses, but most of his guitar solos leave a much to be desired. The coolest thing about Royal Trux is that they sound like they are still playing in a garage. The style, the attitude and the unrefined music is like a garage
band who just started jamming and then recorded themselves on a cheap one-track stereo. Royal Trux is definitely worth listening to if you're into rock n' roll, nonsensical lyrics and kids who sing about what they have experienced.
