Eating disorders increase, college students vulnerable By Colby Grieser Staff Writer

I

n the past few years, the incidence of eating disorders in women have been steadily increasing, especially in college students. In the United States, 70 percent of women are on diets and 40 percent are suffering from eating disorders and the numbers have risen since 1992, said Jodi Dodson, director of Professional Help For Eating Disorders, Inc. The counseling center at UCO handles therapy for students with eating disorders free of charge. About ten to fifteen women come to the center for counseling per year, said Jan Chapel, coordinator of counseling services. Most of the women who come to the center have been in their late teens to

early twenties and come voluntarily. "When they need help, they seek us out," said Chapel. There are three main eating disorders that are prevalent among women and men: anorexia nervosa, which can be characterized by losing weight by starvation; bulimia nervosa, a binge-purge syndrome in which sufferers gorge themselves on large amounts of food, then force themselves to vomit; and compulsive overeating, when people can't control what and how much they eat. Chapel does the counseling on eating disorders at UCO which could consist of talking, drawing pictures of their feelings or Gestalt psychology, she said. The sessions are 50 minutes once a week, but if the patient needs more intensive therapy, Chapel may refer them to a treatment program with a team of doctors, nutritionists and psychologist,

she said. "It just depends on the severity of the case," said Chapel. There has been a good success rate with the patients on campus. They continually come back and continue with their therapy and if they need it, Chapel recommends a hospital, she said. Most of the time, the women are willing to talk about their problems, but sometimes they may have a hard time opening up, said Chapel. "There's a lot of shame involved, especially in bulimics," said Chapel. Eating disorders are a psychological problem and the causes of eating disorders are varied and uncertain, said Dodson. "There are different issues for everyone," she said. One common thread is they usually

appear in a time of transition such as going from junior high to high school or from high school to college, said Dodson. Eating disorders are prevalent among college students because many of them are away from home for the first time, they want to be accepted and it's a great change in their lives, according to the American Anorexia/Bulimia Association, Inc. Dodson's out-patient program is just for women and concentrates on intensive therapy, fitness and nutrition. "There has definitely been a great need for this kind of program in the Edmond, Oklahoma City area," she said. Most of her patients have been from 18 to 25 years old, but eating disorders can affect any age group. For more information about eating disorders or therapy call Jan Chapel at 341-2980, Ext. 2581.

If we're so smart, how come we're so stupid? While most Americans seem to be getting the message that cigarette smoking is hazardous to their health, all across the nation's campuses America's best and brightest are still puffing away. According to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, smoking is on the decline among the general population, but surveys of high school seniors and college freshmen show smoking in this age group has decreased only 1.6 percent since 1981. Almost one-fourth of college students smoke cigarettes, more than half on a daily basis. College students are part of the last significant age group where people initiate this practice and become hooked on nicotine. Dr. Karen Dowd, Chairperson of UCO's Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance Department said, "Probably many of them begin (smoking) for peer acceptance—they choose that behavior to be one of the group. It's very addictive and it very quickly becomes a habit that they wish they could break." So, why invest all the time and money to further your education and improve yourself, when in 20 years there's a good chance you'll be dead from lung cancer anyway? Pujan Roka /The Vista

Both drugs have been removed from the market because of adverse side effects, including death, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA says at least five deaths can be blamed on the fen-phen mixture. Dozens of cases nationwide indicate

people who have used fen-phen have diseased heart valves. It is believed the drug combination is to blame. A new study is being conducted by Columbia University to see if Redux may also be responsible for brain damage.

A sign of the times Gold-leaf, sculpture artist specializes in dying art By Curtis Cobb editor in chief

F

ew people are lucky enough to wake up each morning eager to go to work. Fewer still can say they are only one of a handful of people qualified to do their job. Fred Self is one such person. He owns "Fred's Signs." Along with his wife, Marilyn, of 36 years and son Skip, Self specializes in a dying art. He designs and manufactures a variety of signs using paper thin sheets of pure gold for decoration. One of his recent projects was to apply gold lettering and trim to the windows of Old North and other buildings on the UCO campus. He said he wanted to bring out the history and tradition of the building and hopes to continue as a part of the campus renovation. Born in 1940, Self grew up in "shortgrass country," just north of Weatherford in western Oklahoma. After graduating from high school in 1958, he went to work for a local sign

painting company. He said he had no formal training, just a desire to learn. For 11 years, he honed his craft until he was able to go into business for himself. In 1969, Self opened his own shop on Eighth Street in the heart of downtown Oklahoma City. His clients are mostly professionals looking to add an artistic touch to the doors, windows and mirrors of their offices. "Before computers came along," Self explained, "We did the lettering on fire engines and the old Borden plant." The introduction of computers might have driven some in his field to close shop, but the way Self sees it, "that's just more for me." "A computer is just a machine," he said. "It's no better than the person operating it." The pride he has in his work is obvious when he describes the characteristics of the gold he imports from all over the world. "Good gold will never fade or tarnish," he said.

Fred Self displays some of his sculptures and other artwork in his Oklahoma City shop. (staff photo by Curtis Cobb) Gold-leaf design isn't Self's only passion, however. Seven years ago, he discovered clay sculpting. "I had never played with clay

before...except for grade school art classes," he said. A friend explained that the same artistic skills needed for the work he was already doing could also be used for sculpting. Now, half of his business is dedicated to his work with gold and the other half is a gallery for his sculptures. Many of his clay busts depict biblical figures which he sells to churches around the state. Life has been good to Fred Self. But hard work and determination weren't the only factors in his longevity. Luck also played a role. On April 19, 1995, Self had a 9 a.m. appointment at the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City. His wife, Marilyn, had scheduled the appointment, forgetting that he had an appointment at a doctor's office on the northwest side of the city at the same time. She called the Federal Building and rescheduled Fred for an hour later. V see SELF, page 6

Volleyball team wins 2 over weekend By Darrell J. Weidner Sports Writer

T

he Central Oklahoma Broncho Volleyball team rose to a record of 3-2 in Lone Star Conference play over the weekend at Hamilton Field House. "It was a big weekend for us," said Central Oklahoma Volleyball Coach Mark Herrin. "It puts us into second place in the LSC-North," said Herrin. The Bronchos opened the weekend by downing the Oachita Baptist Lady Tigers in three straight games. UCO volleyball coach Mark Herrin talks to Central jumped out to an his team during a timeout.

of the match. The Lady Tigers broke up the Bronchos early run by forcing a side out. Both teams exchanged several side outs, until an ace serve by Amber Bateman opened the door for the Bronchos 15-1 victory. In the second game, the Bronchos volleyed to an early 4-0 lead which was broken up by several exchanges of side outs by both teams. A block by Bateman forced a side out that set up the Bronchos final run of four points to end the game with a score of 15-4. The third game opened with the Lady Tigers taking a 7-1

lead over Central Oklahoma. A kill by O'Neill broke the Lady Tigers' run. Adriana Crovador started the Bronchos climb back up the score board with an ace serve that culminated in the score tying kill by Bateman to even the score at 9-9. The Bronchos then made a six-point run that ended the 15-9 game and match with an ace serve by Karyn Posey. O'Neill led the Broncho attack landing 13 kills out of 19 attempts. She had a hitting average of .579. Crovador spurred the Bronchos defense with ten digs and two block assists.

Central Oklahoma defeated Harding University in three games (4-15, 9-15, 11-15), Saturday. "They were a harder team," said Herrin. "They passed the ball well, and we had to stop them at the net." O'Neill again led Central Oklahoma's offense with an average of .625. She landed 15 kills out of 24 attempts. Crovador led the Bronchos defense with 11 digs and a block assist. The Bronchos face another LSC-South opponent when they meet Eastern New Mexico, 7 p. m. Friday, in Hamilton Field House.

Saturday MIS class offered to meet increased demand By Ryan Dannar Staff Writer The UCO department of decision sciences is offering a Management Information Systems (MIS) class October 18 through December 6. The class, which will be taught by Elizabeth Little, lecturer in the decision sciences department, will meet Saturdays from 7:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Dr. Saba Bahouth, UCO chair of decision sciences, said the class will be held Saturdays to give working people in the surrounding community a chance to attend. Bahouth said the class will be the 14th section of MIS offered this fall at UCO.Demand is high for MIS classes this fall, he said. "If you look in the Sunday paper, you see that the number of employers looking for people with MIS expertise far

outweighs any other field," he said. "Information management and technology are very critical for business." The main purpose of this course is to teach how organizations use computer technology to improve communication and productivity, he said. A secondary purpose is to expose students to basic concepts of spreadsheets, databases, and webpage design, using the Microsoft OfficeSuite software package.

The class offers three hours of credit, and covers the same information as the full-semester MIS classes, Bahouth said. The course is expected to reach its capacity of 30 students quickly, so those interested should enroll early, he said. For more information, call the department of decision sciences at Ext. 2826, or visit UCO's College of Business Administration webpage at www.busn.ucok.edu.
