The Student Voice Since 1903

Enrollment levels break record, topping 16,000

Coming to America

By Julie Dye Staff Writer "Sally" is a 28-year-old caucasian female. She's a graduate student who attends the college of education for both day and evening classes. "Sally," although she's not a real person, is the quintessential UCO scholar, according to figures from the university's Institutional Research and Planning (IRP). Her classifications are the requisites that make her part of the majority on campus. Ed Cunliff, director of IRP, said the breakdown of enrollment figures has been completed, and shows UCO has a .9 percent increase in registration, with 138 more students attending this fall compared to last. The student head count of 16,039 is broken down by gender, race, class level and population in each of the four colleges. Women make up 58 percent of the total student population; 9,369 4)

Economic discrimination plagues today's society ecently, when the Jesus House attempted to purchase a HUD home in Edmond, an anonymous letter was delivered to all the residences of the neighborhood. It warned people of the potential situation and demanded that they call HUD for an explanation. A week later, a neighborhood meeting was called. Some residents were puzzled at all the hoopla, others were fearful of what "kind" of people might be moved into the home. It was an eye-opening experience to watch a quiet middle-class neighborhood ripple with lynch-mob attitudes. In the past century, America has made leaps and bounds in the race against prejudice and racism: the right to vote, the right to "sit in the front of the bus," the right to go to any school. Issues of race, gender, age, disabilities, all have been addressed. Yet it seems economics is still the sacred shrine impervious to desecration. At a job people are told not to discuss their salary with other employees. It's considered socially rude to ask a person how much they earn in a year. Finances are a secretive, private affair. While it is not considered politically correct to judge a person by their culture or physical abilities, people still feel justified in judging a person by their economic status. Although many people are rendered homeless by economic, medical or natural disasters, there is still a stigma attached to their situation. To many, the word homeless evokes images of indigents, laziness and drug abuse. Not the college-educated men and women, the children filled with enthusiasm and hope— the potential of a human being—the "average" person. Until humankind can put away the need to be "better than someone else," society will never achieve respect for someone who is different. Without this, the world will never learn to live in peace, and without the ability to live in peace, the world loses the ability to live at all. 4,

Call boxes, administration calms student would like to say "thank you" to President Nigh and Ben Harris, president of Student Government Association. Recently, I confronted Ben about my safety as I walk from the parking lot to my resident hall. To my pleasure, he promptly notified President Nigh about the matter. Together, they explained the university's ongoing efforts to assure safety.

/

I learned there are currently nine call boxes located across campus. Auxiliary Services has hired two extra campus police officers to escort people from these locations to their destinations. I also learned that five more boxes are budgeted, but have not yet been installed. President Nigh has notified the construction company and they are working to speed the installation. They are also planning to

add extra lighting on the walkways between all the halls. I realize they cannot guarantee my constant safety. However, I, as well as my parents, feel better knowing that their guards are always up and they are not only saying, but doing everything in their power to make my stay here as safe as possible. Thanks again! Teena Skaggs

`Bickering' in SGA meeting raises concern

A

s a student, I am very interested in how the student activity fees that I pay are spent. Consequently, I am worried about the things going on in the Student Government Association. I attended last Monday's meeting hoping to be

appointed to the Senate, so that I could do my part and help serve the students, but because of petty bickering and misplaced goals my appointment was held up in committee. I feel that some people, particularly the Speaker, were wrong in denying myself and others the chance to con-

tribute to Senate last week because they didn't like what we might have said. After all, I would view it as an honor to serve the students. I just wish that everyone else felt the same. Dustin Gregory

Are`average' UCO salaries misleading? Once again the figures given for "average" salaries at UCO are misleading. Case in point: "Professors received an average of $50,292 during...1992-93." Actually, almost all UCO professors made $50,000 or less during that period. The claimed "average" was calculated by counting as faculty part-time administrators (assistant deans, department chairs) who do not teach "regular course loads" and who make form $1,900 to $3,000 more than full-time faculty. The one professor who only taught and

researched during 1992-93 who exceeded $50,000 is also a certified public account—CPAs get additional $2,000. The actual "average" for professors during 1992-93 was $49,000 plus. This was also true of 1993-94. A comparison with other master's degree granting institutions reveals their average 1993-94 pay for professors was $56,450 which is approximately $7,000 more than at UCO. Other ranks compare more favorably: Associate profs are slightly below the average while assis-

tart profs and instructors are at or slightly above it. —John George

Professor of political science and sociology

`Buggy' situation drops into UC By Nicki Cormier

Staff Writer

It was 8 a.m. Conversation buzzed below him and the biting aroma of freshly brewed coffee smelled good. Sleepily, he crawled out of bed to quietly join the girls in the kitchen. Unfortunately, he wasn't quite awake and fell through a hole in the ceiling. Connie saw him fall, he missed the table and hit the floor. Raynelle gently picked him up. "Connie," she said, "is this huge thing a cockroach?" By this time he was a little bit hurt, due to Raynelle squeezing him. She put him down so that Connie could see. Connie looked bug-eyed at the large roach. "Yes, I believe it is," she said. Raynelle was getting ready to squish him when Peggy arrived. Taking his large body into her hands, Peggy proceeded to wrap him gently in cellophane. ...And the roach slowly suffocated surrounded by the women he loved.

Homecoming scores big with Home Run '94 race By Mike Erwin Staff Writer Besides a parade, bonfire, football game and more traditional activities, a 5K road race has taken its place among homecoming festivities at UCO. Home Run '94 will begin at 8 a.m. Sept. 24 on Garland Godfrey, north of Main Street. The course will go along the border of campus and is expected to produce competitive times for the runners.

Death an inevitable part of experiencing a full life By Paul Eddy Staff Writer One hundred and thirty-two is quite a number. It could be the number of people that attend your child's first little league game. It could be your graduating class. It could be everyone that attends your funeral_ One hundred and thirty-two human lives are gone, their hopes and dreams dashed to pieces in a plane crash inside the woods outside of Pittsburgh, Penn. Will your death make the news or will you die like a quiet whisper—it doesn't really matter. The rest of the world will go on. Everyone dies. Some believe that death is a step on the stairs of paradise. Religion helps many to deal with death, be it

their own or someone near them. It gives hope that death isn't the end. But maybe it is the end. Most likely you won't know until you die, and then it will be too late to do anything different with your life. The question of death often

Column comes to us early in life and never quite goes away, but instead fades as the years and lives pass us by. Remember in high school when one student's death could affect everyone? Even those who didn't know the person would attend the funeral. But as we drift farther away from our close knit groups, we often find that death just doesn't affect us as much anymore.

After all, there are over 250,000,000 people in the United States. What are the chances that we would know one of the 132 people that died? Worse still is the fact that death has become a casual event. Weapons are so sophisticated that they are capable of wiping out human existence while leaving the buildings intact, movie heroes take out small third world armies in scenes of mass carnage. Why should death affect us when we see it everyday, on television, in the newspaper, in books and in real life? In this age of technologically enhanced longevity, the miracle of life is becoming easier to obtain and maintain. But in this world with subterranean passages and blue skies... Death happens.

Educational organization has official first meeting By Jason Webb Staff Writer The UCO chapter of the Association for Childhood Education International held its first official meeting Wednesday in the living area of the Home Economics Building. The UCO ACEI developed in the spring '94 semester, and after officers wrote its constitution this summer, UCO recognized them as an official organization. At the meeting, Trina Woodruff, UCO ACEI president, announced the other officers. The officers are: Stacy Vogel, vice-president, Laura Sims, secretary, Kathy Winsaur, treasurer and Kimberly Goldman, historian. Officers discussed the purposes of the organization, membership fees, fund-raising and involvement ideas. Sims proposed a teacher fashion show to raise money for the organization. "We want teachers to come in and have a fashion show with us and show us what clothing would be appropriate and professional," said Sims. Dr. Lola Davis, assistant professor of early childhood education, spoke on behalf of the ACEI organization. She explained that $23 of the $30 membership fee goes toward educational journals for UCO ACEI members. She also said the international organization is the oldest organization of its kind, and that it was originally created to "gather and disseminate knowledge about kindergarten teachers." One potential member complained about the international organization not helping them in practical purposes. "Overall, the UCO chapter will be great," she said. "But it just seems like the international part is just an expensive book club." Davis responded by saying the journals provide the latest teaching techniques from all over the world, but the international club does not help find jobs. "That would be a good goal for the local chapter to deal with, if they choose," said Davis, "to contact professionals and set up a mentor program."

N Walkway collapses into channel RAMSGATE. England (AP) — A 40-foot-high walkway collapsed as passengers were boarding a ferry to cross the English Channel today, killing six people and injuring seven, authorities said. The injured included four American men, a Japanese man, an Austrian woman and a British man, police said. An earlier report by the British national news agency Press Association said five Americans were injured. Some of the victims had spinal injuries, said Jon Billings, spokesman at Kent and Canterbury Hospital. None was in a life-threatening condition. Police said the walkway collapsed about 1 a.m. as the last of about 400 passengers were boarding the Belgian-owned ferry Prins Filip shortly before it was to leave for Ostend, Belgium. The walkway fell 40 feet. throwing victims onto a pontoon, police said. Some victims were crushed by the falling walkway and then by other passengers crashing on top of them. Firefighters used hydraulic gear to free those trapped by the wreckage. Port authorities said the 90-foot-long walkway had been in use for only eight months. An inquiry will focus on whether there was a structural fault or whether the walkway, built by a Swedish company, was not properly fixed.

Pornography discovered by school

I was left his knife and need for day-dreams, the connection to his eyes.

NEWBURGH, N.Y. (AP) — Somebody slipped a little sex in between the pictures of bunnies and puppies that children at an elementary school brought home for a fund-raising campaign. Several parents discovered pornographic pictures Monday when their children brought the fund-raising brochures home from Meadow Hill School. Packets were given to 1,000 kindergarten and grade school students. Most of the packets included catalogs for chocolates, Christmas paper, and calendars with pictures of bunnies and puppies on them. But at least 10 packets also included pages torn from a magazine that showed naked adults having sex, numbers for phone sex lines and ads for life-size inflatable dolls. "We assume it was a disgruntled employee" at one of the companies involved in the fund-raiser, Vice Principal Deborah Bannan said. "At this point in time, they're not sure what happened." The brochures were packaged by Artcraft Studios of Old Forge, Pa., school officials said. Calls to the company went unanswered Tuesday night.

Body found in plane landing gear APIA, Western Samoa (AP) — A Polynesian Airlines jet with 72 people aboard made an emergency landing when its right landing gear didn't deploy. The body of a stowaway was later found in the wheel well, the airline said. The cause of death of the unidentified man wasn't known. Passengers used emergency slides to leave the jet after the landing Tuesday, and no one was injured, said Airline Chief Executive Richard Gates. The body in the wheel well prevented the landing gear from extending, Gates said. The stowaway apparently climbed into the right wheel bay of the Boeing 737-300 while it was in neighboring Tonga, Gates said. The dead man was in his 20s and carried no identification but was believed to be a Tongan national, police said. The jet circled Apia Airport to burn off fuel before landing on the nosewheel and left landing gear, Gates said. The jet sustained little damage, he said. Western Samoa is 1,800 miles northeast of New Zealand.

The students were narrowed down through an interview process to 250 students, with 86 sent to the U.S. Akram Azerbayeu, Roman Khramets, Vladislav Glabai, Serguei Zaroubin, Nazgul Yergalieva, Jamila Abdullayeva, Diana Simenova, Makhmud Duisebaev, Aidos Djeksembajev and Arjan Tokachakov, range in age from 19 to 23, and have various majors from finance to psychology. ✓ The program is attempting to give the students involved a qualified education, said Yergalieva. The group will study at UCO for the next two semesters, and then their country's government will check their grades to see if they will be eligible to be sent back the next semester. "Nobody is going to pay for a had student," said Yergalieva. "This is an investment for our county from the government," said Azerbayeu.

After the students have completed their degree, they will work for their country's government in their various fields for four to five years. "It is very difficult to get scholarships to study abroad," said Yergalieva. ✓ "We were not just eager for education, we were eager to come to America," said Azerbayev. "In Kazakstan, attending a university is free. However, if you don't pay for your education, you are not guaranteed a position in that particular school. If you do choose to pay the school, you are guaranteed to be able to attend," said Simenova. "Every institution has the right to charge the students," said Yergalieva. "Men are required to join the military service by age 18, if they don't enroll in a university," said Khramets. "Education is starting to play a crucial role in our country," said Azerbayev. "To get better jobs and make more money, people are needing to get more education." Health care is free to the public, with the doctors being

"The country's main problem is ecology. We don't have political organization to influence the government to change situations," said Yergalieva. "There are no clean lakes or rivers, except in the mountains," said Yergalieva. There are many factories releasing various metals into the air. The polluted air causes 60-70 percent of children to be born with allergies, said S imenova. In some regions the inhabitants are paid a compensation to live in the area where the air is not clean, said Simenova. Despite Kazakstan's ecology problems, the group is proud of their country.

Women's Defense, big plays propel UCO soccer club rallies past Fort Hays State, 38-15 for 5-5 tie By Scott Moore Sports Editor

By Mike Erwin Staff Writer

Angie Lute scored two goals as the UCO soccer club's women's team came closer to their first win of the indoor season. UCO tied the Leftovers 5-5 Sept. 15 at Chico's Soccer Villa. Krista Henderson and Rola Eid scored UCO's first two goals before Lute tallied her pair of goals. Trailing 5-4 with 7:10 remaining, Deborah Mills scored the equalizer for UCO, 0-2-1. "Our defense did a good job, but our forwards didn't get back to help," said Henderson. Angela Hicks made her first start as goalkeeper, subbing for injured Rachel Schnitzer. "She was a little nervous at first," said Henderson. "But she did an excellent job." Teamwork is improving for UCO, said Henderson. "We're making better passes and communicating more on the field." UCO plays Yucatan in their next match, Sept. 22. The women's team will travel to McPherson, Kan. for an outdoor match with Central Junior College's varsity squad Oct. 8. In an outdoor exhibition here, the UCO men's team beat East Central University 3-2 Sept. 15. Ryan Trenary, Hosteen Walsh and Mitch Moncho scored for the Bronchos, who will play a rematch with ECU in Ada, Sept. 24.

The offensive firepower wasn't there for the Bronchos but the special teams unit and the defense was as the Bronchos vaulted past Fort Hays State 38-15 at Lewis Stadium in Hays, Kan. to remain unbeaten at 3-0. The UCO offense, averaging

402 yards per game in romps over Mesa St. (34-8) and Southwestern (36-8), looked anything but impressive against the Tigers (0-3) who allowed just 193 yards of total offense and held Broncho leading rusher Joe Aska to just 75 yards on 25 attempts. But as it turned out, the Broncho didn't need a big offensive day, just solid play from their defense and some key big plays. It didn't look good for the

Broncho early on, as Fort Hays marched 73 yards in 12 plays on their first series to go up 6-0 after a mixed extra point. The Tigers then went 57 yards in just 4 plays on their next drive, highlighted by former University of Oklahoma running back Earnest Williams' 29-yard scamper for a touchdown to extend the lead to 12-0 after a failed conversion attempt. A little over 10 minutes had elapsed in the game and UCO was already in a 12-0 hole. And to top it off, that potent Broncho Offense was sputtering against a Tiger defense that had been giving up 346 yards a contest. The Bronchos stalled on their first two possesions but the first big play of the game would change things around. After Fort Hays' second score, junior split end Tony Bryson took the ensuing kick off and traveled 93 yards for a touchdown to cut the Tiger lead to 12-7 with 4:39 left in the first quarter after a successful PAT. The inspired Broncho defense held Fort Hays for three straight plays and forced them to punt on their next possesic'n but UCO defensive back Kenneth Evans

La

charged through and blocked the kick. UCO spilt end Chris Gill ispie recovered and went in for a Broncho touchdown with 1:49 left in the first quarter. Two Broncho touchdowns in less than a three minute span gave UCO a stunning 14-12 lead. The Defense came up big again mid-way through the second quarter as UCO safety Richard Norman intercepted a Dustin McEwen pass and returned it to the FHSU 32. Six plays later, UCO senior kicker Chris Patterson booted a 35-yard field goal to up the lead to 17-12 late in the first half. The Bronchos would intercept McEwen three times on the night. The Tigers answered by travelling 77 yards in 17 plays for a 20yard field goal at the horn to cut the UCO lead to 17-15 at halftime. The UCO defense and FHSU turnovers sealed the Tigers' fate as the Bronchos turned a fumbled punt, another interception and a defensive stand at mid-field midway through the 4th quarter into Broncho touchdowns. The Bronchos ended up routing the Tigers despite being out-offensed 288-193. The Bronchos managed just 63 yards on the ground.

The announcement was recently by Dr. Royce Money, chairman of the LSC Council of Presidents and president of Abilene Christian University. The LSC, NCAA Division II, consists of nine universities in Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico. UCO has been a member since 1989. Before his appointment as cornmissioner of the SWC, Jacoby served as commissioner of the Wisconsin State University Conference in 1966-71 and commissioner of the Mid-American Conference in 1971-82.

Nursing department sponsors free health screening By Nicki Cormier Staff Writer

Many people are unaware of the simple things they can do to live a healthier life-style. said Charlzetta McMurray, nursing instructor at UCO. The nursing department faculty, supported by employment benefit specialist Jeanette

Pattern, will sponsor a free health screening for faculty and staff. UCO wants to provide a mechanism for employees to monitor their health status and make healthy life changes, said McMurray. "This is the second year we have done the screening, which involves checking the blood

pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose levels. Height and weight, and other health risk factors will also be checked. "What we are doing different this year is offering a fasting lipid battery test, which is a more comprehensive cholesterol screening. It offers a more complete picture of high density and low density cholesterol as well

as blood glucose levels." "Employees should fast for 12-14 hours before being tested so we can get an accurate reading," said McMurray. Times and dates for the screening are 7:30-11:30 a.m. and 1:30-3:30 p.m. Sept. 26, 28, 29, and Oct. 3, 4, 6 at the Student Health Center. Brown bag lunch-style class-

es addressing the lipid battery, hypertension, and blood glucose are tentatively scheduled for 12:10-12:50 p.m. Nov. 3, 14, 21, said McMurray "The classes will help the employees understand the meaning of their laboratory values." For more information call Linda Steele, nursing instructor, 341-2980, Ext. 5178.

females grace the campus compared

to the 6,670 males. "And that has really leveled off," Cunliff said. "That increase started in the 1970s." The average student age is 28. But, Cunliff said, the average age for daytime classes is 25, while the average age for evening classes is 33. "A lot of people say we have two different student populations," Cunliff said, adding that 3,600 students attend both evening and daytime classes. Minority enrollment is increasing for Black, Hispanic, Asian, American Indian and international students. Cunliff said this increase has been occurring for a number of years, mainly because of recruiting efforts. The number of caucasian students on campus is following a three year trend of decrease. "That particular phenomenon is in line with national trends," Cunliff said. "No big surprise there." The figures indicate there are 3,663 attending the university at the graduate level, with seniors placing second in school population at 3,512. Freshman students totaled 3,217 and juniors 2,993. There are 2,654 sophomores on campus. Finally, the college of education is enrolling more students than any of the other colleges. With an enrollment of 5,927 students, 37 percent of the UCO population are taking classes in the college of education. "There are a large number of transfer students from other universities who, for whatever reason, come to UCO," said Judith Coe, assistant dean of the college of education. "We have an excellent program and a caring environment, and I think when word spreads, we get additional students." Coe said the passage of House Bill 1017 has created a greater need for teachers in the state.

Depression Screening Day to be at UCO for awareness week By Matt Williamson

Staff Writer Some students complain of feelings of sadness and irritability. Some may feel guilty or hopeless, others show fatigue and restlessness. Many tell of having trouble concentrating or remembering things. National Depression Screening Day is scheduled for Oct. 6 during Mental Illness Awareness Week. Dr. Douglas G. Jacobs, founder of National Depression Screening Day, said signs of depression can be misdiagnosed or even ignored. "If a student finds herself short of breath or wheezing, she would see a clinician to be checked out for asthma or allergies. The same should be true of a student who has the symptoms of clinical depression," said Jacobs. Last year, 60,000 people were tested at 1,300 sites across America. Including UCO, an additional 300 sites are planned for this year and the sponsors hope for 100,000 people to be screened. "Students will be able to view a 30 minute video tape on depression, a graduate student from the Student Support Services will be available to answer questions," said Janis Chapel, coordinator of UCO counseling services. Screenings will be confidential and on an individual basis. A 30 minute test will be administered, after which the students will meet with a counselor, said Chapel. Susan LaForge, director of Student Health Center, said about 50 students come to the Student Health Center each year.

OSP experiences 'best season ever' By Paul Eddy Staff Writer

T

en years, hundreds of performances and thousands of patrons later, Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park (OSP) can look back on its success and look forward with optimism. In ten years, attendance at the company's performances has more than doubled

from about 6,000 in 1985 to 12,556 in 1994. The company was founded by the late Jack O'Meara and Kathryn Huey (O'Meara) in the summer of 1985. They decided to found the company as a Shakespearean company because most people are familiar with it, and there was a built-in student audience, said Sue Ellen Reiman, business director of OSP.

Kathryn O'Meara, the compa✓ ny's artistic director, is currently on leave of absence in Detroit, said Reiman. OSP is a non-profit organization, and does residency programs in high schools throughout the Oklahoma City area. The. company has a yearly budget of about $100,000 to hire actors, buy props and pay for lighting, said Reiman. "1994 is probably the best season we've had, Cyrano brought in more people than any other play we've ever done. The final performance of the season set a record for attendance at a single performance (600). And the best is—we weren't rained out this year— that has never happened before," said Reiman. ✓ The company has had bad seasons also. "1989 was really bad for the company," said Reiman. "It was one of the rainiest summers in 40 years, and the company tried to do a revolving repertoire of five plays including an original musical. Shakespearean cornpanies aren't known for their singing abilities." "We tore the sets down every night and set up the next play," said Reiman, about the

revolving repertoire. The summer season has four plays scheduled and each one is performed 16 times. "About 60 hours of rehearsal goes into each play," said Reiman. "There are sometimes two rehearsals and a play being held during the same week." Sometimes there are problems rehearsing around the current play's set, and sometimes the directors prefer to rehearse somewhere else, said Reiman. Most plays use about 30 actors varying in age from five-years-old, up to actors in their 70P..s. Many actors perform in more than one show. At least half a dozen were from UCO this summer. "The stage is wonderful. When we started we used the other stage because it was there and there were all sorts of scheduling conflicts," said Reiman. "Most of the people hired are known by someone in the company. The Oklahoma City theatre community is really close knit," said Reiman. "Some of our actors have gone on to appear in movies, and many continue to perform in other companies." Many actors consider the ability ✓ to perform Shakespeare as a crowning achievement, said Reiman. OSP will be holding auditions December 3 and 4 for the winter performance of Macbeth Jan. 27-Feb. 4 at Stage Center in Oklahoma City. The 1995 summer season will begin May 18. "We always open with a comedy," said Reiman.

Pool-shooting UCO students are needed to fill more than 30 open spots in the upcoming UCO Eight-Ball Tournament. The competition will begin once all 64 spots are full, said Al Boord, University Center game room attendant. After competitors are paired for the first round, they will set up a time to play their match. The tournament is open to both men and women, regardless of skill level. Participants must be UCO students. Most of the past winners were game room regulars, said Boord. "There are a few that are really good, but some are just trying their best." As of Sept. 15, only one former champion had entered this year's tournament. Adam Vascellaro won the spring 1993 eight-ball championship. The tournament was first staged during the fall of 1975 and has continued each semester since. The only cost to participate is the table fee, two cents per minute. In the finals there will be no charge for the table fee, said Boord.
