FURMANEK Rick and Robin Furmanek speak on Paul Tatum's death.

A committee for the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (OSRHE) will conduct a comprehensive study on tuition and fees for colleges and universities in Oklahoma.

The study will examine the possibility of establishing a fouryear fixed tuition rate and a block tuition plan for students entering college in the fall of 1998 or after.

According to OSRHE the four-year fixed tuition rate would ensure that a freshman entering college for the first time would pay the same tuition rate for up to four years or get a guarantee that tuition wouldn't increase more than a specified amount over a four-year period.

Under a block tuition plan, students taking a certain number of credit hours would pay one flat fee per semester.

In the study, the committee will look at OSRHE's authority and responsibility to set tuition and fee rates, and the role of colleges and universities in the process, said Jeanie Edney, spokesperson for OSRHE. The committee includes: James Branscum, vice president, Rose State College; Tom Guild, Faculty Advisory Board, UCO; Jan Jackson, budget director, University of Oklahoma; Saul Magana, president, Student Advisory Board; Dawn Scott, OSRHE; Joe Weaver, budget

director, Oklahoma State University and Larry Williams, executive vice provost, OSU Okmulgee.

OSRHE is trying to help students prepare for the cost of college and provide incentives for students to complete their degrees within four years, said Edney.

OSRHE will also study tuition rates and tuition and fee structures in other states.

Tuition at Oklahoma colleges and universities is currently based on a per credit hour charge and is set by OSRHE. The study will also examine consolidation of special fees into the tuition structure, the revenue implications, implementing the plan for students transferring from other colleges and timing issues, such as when it will happen and what steps institutions would need to take, said Edney.

The Regents will submit the study's findings to the governor, speaker of the house and president pro tempore in January 1998.

"We anticipate discussion will be wide-ranging and a number of issues will be examined," said Edney.

"It is our goal, working with legislature and the executive branch, to identify structures that best serve the needs of students and higher education.(We are) especially interested in structures that will help students with higher education."

Ceti p ones create dangerous distractions Motor vehicle collisions are already a leading cause of death in the United States and adding cellular phones to the mix makes it even more dangerous.

In a study by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety in Toronto, Canada, 699 drivers were observed in order to find a direct correlation between cellular phone use and an increase in car collisions. The evidence showed that using cellular phones while driving is dangerous. They concluded that motorists using the car phones take longer to respond to "highway traffic situations."

There is no doubt that cellular phones are useful. More than one half million 911 calls were made on cellular phones last year. Anyone stranded by the side of the road late at night would feel safer making a call from inside their car than setting out on foot to find a phone.

Using it as a security tool is one thing, but when people drive and talk at the same time, they could be risking the safety of others on the road.It is the responsibility of those using the phones to consider the risks involved and prepare accordingly.

The California State Automobile Association has some suggestions to make car phone use safer: • Don't change your driving position to dial.

• Make calls only when your car is stopped.

• Use memory dial features.

• Don't get wrapped up in conversation.

Native Oklahoman speaks at UCO about life in post-communist Russia, slain brother-in-law

By Roy Howe Guest Writer

L

ife in post-communist Russia was hard for Rick Furmanek, his wife, Robin and their two young children.

They found Moscow to lack many of the conveniences so common in America.

The Russian people seemed to possess low spirits and the streets were dangerous.

But determined to live like ordinary Moscow citizens, the Furmaneks rented a flat, shopped the crowded market places and found unexpected humor and pleasant experiences amidst a population in despair.

The memoirs from those faraway adventures were overshadowed, though, when on Nov. 3, 1995, Robin Furmanek's entrepreneurial brother, Paul Tatum, of Edmond, was gunned down in that city.

Oklahoma natives, the Furmaneks

department chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, Tatum's mother, Millie Tatum, spoke for the first time about her son's murder.

Although Millie refused to speculate about who the killers might be, she harbors no animosity.

"I have often wondered how a parent could deal with the loss of a child," Millie said. "No matter what age they are, they remain our children." "i've dealt with this through gratitude and forgiveness," she said.

"I'm grateful for the 41 years I had my son. I try to focus on that, and not what we lost." " I do forgive the killers," she added.

Nation's colleges gather for annual area college night

By Joanna Hafey Staff Writer

M

ore than 125 colleges from across the nation will be represented for the 5th year at UCO during Edmond Area College Night. It will be from 68:30 p.m., Sept. 29 in the Hamilton Fieldhouse.

The purpose of College Night is to provide information to prospective students and their parents about college, said Lynn Means, director of Student Activities and former director of Prospective Student Services.

Questions about financial aid, admission and other information about college can be answered by the various representatives, she said.

"This may be the one and only time a representative will come to Oklahoma," she said.

"It really saves the student a lot of time."

Rather than having to write or visit the colleges, at College Night the schools are coming to the prospective students, she said.

Invitations are sent to sophomores, juniors and seniors at Edmond High Schools,

Deer Creek High Schools and private schools, such as Casady, she said.

It will be a browsing-type format, she said. Booths will be set up by the individual colleges.

UCO will have five booths on the west end of the Fieldhouse, she said.

This year between 2,000 and 3,000 students and parents are expected to attend, she said. Last year 2,500 people attended.

UCO gains quite a few students from College Night, she said.

"We added about 1,000 names to our prospective student data base last year," said Means.

OU and OSU will be in the east end, said Means. Many other colleges including Princeton and Yale will occupy the remaining space.

"It grows every year," said Means. "It's becoming a tradition, especially with Edmond parents."

The President's Leadership Council and the UCO Ambassadors Student Organization provide volunteers to help with the event, she said.

Edmond Area College Night is sponsored by Prospective Student Services.

Last year, the seniors performed a children's theatre musical they wrote themselves called Snowman and the Seven Sylphs, Sloan said.

"The show was an enormous success...and we anticipate many more productions in the future, for children as well as for adult audiences," Sloan said.

Sloan said she was inspired to start the class by a similar program held at the University of Las Vegas.

By Chad Willming Sports Editor Central Oklahoma's defense forced five turnovers helping the No. 17 ranked Bronchos post their second shutout in three games and a 28-0 victory over Abilene Christian Saturday.

"We played a good sound defensive football game, anytime you get a shutout you have to feel good," said UCO defensive Dorn coordiantor Duane Dirk.

Junior linebacker Craig Dorn led the defensive charge intercepting a pass for a touchdown and setting up another UCO score with a fumble recovery deep in ACU territory.

UCO volleyball team wins four straight, claims Invitational title

By Darrell J. Weidner Sports Writer The Central Oklahoma Bronchos volleyball squad claimed The Broncho Invitational title in an undefeated run of four matches over the weekend.

"It was good to win this weekend," said Central Oklahoma Volleyball Coach Mark Herrin.

"We needed it, after last weekend in Texas," said Herrin.

The Bronchos opened the tournament defeating Central Arkansas in four games (11-15, 6-15, 15-13, 13-15).

The Bronchos offense dominated the first games of the match, with Central Arkansas being forced into several side outs, because of net violations and being in the wrong rotation.

Adriana Crovador spurred the Bronchos offense with 16 kills, Crovador also led the Bronchos defense against the Sugar Bears, with 19 digs.

"Our offense was consistent throughout the tournament," said Herrin. "We made a lot of good plays."

In Friday's second game, Central Oklahoma downed LSCSouth Div. opponent Tarleton State in four games (8-15, 15-11, 16-18, 13-15).

Each envelope should then be taken to the office of Dr. Endres, Room 152 in the Math and Computer Science building, said Prabhu.

The first person to solve the problem will be the winner, said Endres.

FURMANEK

continued from Page 3

Tatum was gunned down as he headed to a subway station where he had been summoned to a phony meeting; he was shot 11 times.

As of yet, American and Russian officials have named no suspects in the killing—a laissez-faire approach the Furmanek's call " a matter of politics."

"No one on the scene will speak about what happened," said Rick Furmanek.

"We have it on good word that it was planned."

Tatum had been in conflict with the Moscow city government.

A successful Edmond businessman, Tatum moved to Russia in 1989 and was attempting to launch a multi-million dollar hotel/business center in Moscow.

He later offered Furmanek work with his company involving foreign development.

In March of 1993, the Furmaneks made the 9,000-mile move.

They did not feel welcome.

"We soon found people were following us; we didn't know if they were good guys or bad guys," Furmanek said.

"Street violence also was common. As the newly formed capitalistic society allowed people to sell their own goods, the Russian mafia became prevalent."

The Furmaneks spoke of low food supplies and logistical problems, as well.

"The staple foods are far and few between. And when you do find staple products, they are very expensive," Robin Furmanek said.

"It's a city of major inconvenience," she added. "They literally change the traffic rules daily. I had to plan my day far in advance."

The family experienced good times, as

well.

Teaching Russian children to play baseball, "some of the best tasting fresh fruits I have put in my mouth," and an eventual mutual admiration among the Furmaneks and their neighbors proved to be rewarding, Robin said.

But as Russian animosity toward foreigners grew, the Furmaneks feared for their safety and returned to the U.S. in March, 1994.

"Just as impressed as we were to go to Russia, we were that impressed to leave," Robin said.

"My brother was upset that we wanted to leave. He was a fighter—not only for his business and for Russia's new democracy, but for the Russian people to live in that democracy."

"I doubt Russia's new freedom is anything like we have here, nor will it be

anytime in the near future," Rick Furmanek said.

Furmanek had been back in the U.S. for more than a year, and his book recounting his 1993-94 stay, "Stranded in Moscow, An American's Story of Life in the New Russia," was ready for print when he learned of his brother-in-law's death.

After being notified of Tatum's death, an epilogue was added and the book was dedicated to "Paul Edward Tatum: Entrepreneur, Visionary and Economic Genius."

Now living in Arizona, Furmanek said he plans to write a book and has been approached about a screenplay on Tatum's Russian endeavors. But until the political environment among Russia and America on this matter improves, he said he will wait.
