EDMOND WATER IN THE CLEAR
PRESIDENT WEBB TO RETIRE
By Amy Stinnett
By Cody Bromley / Staff Writer After 14 years of serving as university president, UCO President W. Roger Webb announced Wednesday that he will be stepping down from his position. “With both joy and sadness, today I announce that my last day as president of this great university will be June 30, 2011,” Webb said in an e-mail to faculty and staff. Webb became UCO’s 19th president in 1997, took over the leadership role formerly held by past Oklahoma Gov. George Nigh. Before coming to UCO, Webb had been an adjunct member of UCO’s faculty and had served 19 years as president of Northeastern State University in Tahlequah. “I believe that today the strength of the UCO faculty and the depth of the talent in administration and staff of Central are the best they have ever been,” Webb said in the e-mail. In his time at UCO, Webb has been honored with awards and opportunities to serve on the board of directors of several organizations. In 1995, Webb was

The recent discovery of trace amounts of a known carcinogen, Chromium-6, in the water of more than 30 U.S. cities, including Norman, Okla., has prompted concerns of widespread contamination. Edmond, however, was not included on the list of cities contaminated by the element, Chromium-6, also known among scientists as hexavalent chromium, remains a bit of a mystery to those who have studied it. The metallic element can be found in nature, primarily in rocks and metal deposits, but also is commonly used in manufacturing. The sheen of the chrome on that Harley bike or that monster Hummer is chromium, said Cheryl B. Frech, a chemistry professor and chair of the chemistry department at UCO. “There’s been a lot of recent query about Chromium-6 because of this report that came out…from this group called the EWG, the Environmental Working Group,” Frech said. EWG’s website claims that, “our team of scientists, engineers, policy experts, lawyers and computer programmers pores over government data, legal documents, scientific studies and our own laboratory tests to expose threats to your health and the environment, and to find solutions. Our research brings to light unsettling facts that you have a right to know.” The advocacy group’s report was undertaken at the time the Environmental Protection Agency was considering whether or not to establish limits on Chromium-6 in municipal tap water.

named to the Oklahoma Higher Education Hall of Fame and in 2009, the Edmond Chamber of Commerce named Webb the Citizen of the Year. A native of Heavener, Okla., Webb graduated from Heavener High School in 1959 before attending Oklahoma State University. In 1963, he graduated from OSU with a B.A. and also took a job working in the office of the secretary of the U.S. Senate in Washington D.C. In 1967, Webb returned to Oklahoma to get a Juris Doctorate degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Law. “We have seen incredible progress at this dynamic university over the past decade, and I will miss being a part of its future” Webb said in the e-mail. A successor for Webb has yet to be announced, but Webb said he is optimistic about his replacement. “I know that the university will be in good hands and will boldly move forward as a major urban university. I have the greatest confidence in the Regional University System of Oklahoma Board of Regents to choose a successor who will lead Central to new heights of excellence,” he said.

DID YOU KNOW? Blueberry Jelly Bellies were created especially for Ronald Reagan.
Justin Wells’ UConnect inbox has turned into a played-out Monty Python sketch. Much like the “spam egg sausage and spam” from the skit, it has not got much spam, but he does not want any at all. Wells, a graduate student studying marriage and family therapy, along with the thousands of other UCO students who receive direct correspondence from the university via their student e-mail are finding an increasing amount of unsolicited advertisements in their inboxes. Since he came to UCO, Wells says that he has received more advertising e-mails in the last year that any other time, most of which he said were about textbook sellers at and around UCO. “I have actually replied to the business, as well as random vice presidents, trying to find out who’s in charge. In my e-mail, I would just state my disgust in the fact that they were selling my e-mail,” Wells said. He said he has received replies to those e-mails
from business claiming they did not want to send him an e-mail he did not want. “They said they would take me off, but even after follow-up e-mails I’m still getting e-mails from them,” he said. Dr. Cynthia Rolfe, vice president for Information Technology at UCO, said a student complaining about spam in their UCO inbox is not a new thing, but not common either. “We’ve had one or two people ask us about that, and we’ve tried to kind of investigate where it might be coming from,” Rolfe said. Rolfe said that her department has not quite got to the bottom of the problem yet, but that they themselves do not provide any personal information to vendors. But despite his best efforts to guard it, information like Wells’ e-mail address is actually shared openly and publicly with anyone who wants it. In the office of legal counsel at UCO, anyone can file a request and gain access to a large list of information
about any student of their choosing. The information available is made possible by the Oklahoma Open Records act, which states that, “If kept, statistical information not identified with a particular student and directory information shall be open for inspection and copying.” The ”directory information” data available on UCO students includes, but is not limited to: a student’s name, local and permanent address, e-mail address, telephone number(s), classification, dates of attendance at UCO, enrollment status (full-time, part-time, or less than part-time), major/ field of study / degree program, educational institutions previously attended, degrees and awards granted, educational background degree(s) held and date(s) granted and institutions granting such degree(s), date and place of birth, participation in officially recognized organizations, activities and sports, and weight and height of participants in officially recognized sports.

TUCSON SHOOTING AN EYE-OPENER By Josh Hutton / Staff Writer In the wake of the tragic shooting in Tucson earlier this month, UCO’s campus security must be re-evaluated. The university became a beacon of safety in 2007 when under the guidance of President Webb, UCO hosted the National Campus Security Summit. The event blended higher education professionals with law enforcement experts from across the nation. Modernizing collegiate security being the mantra. Results included the creation of CARE (Campus Awareness Response and Evaluation Team), and the establishment of Central Alert. The administration is deeply dedicated to prevention, but has also materialized an effective reactionary machine if threat moves from potential to reality. CARE is a network of university leaders, ranging from the Chief of Public Safety to the Director of Housing. Having members of strikingly different facets allow the team to detect the pulse of student life, assimilate and administer to the needs. Members meet intermittently to survey potential threats. In a time of crisis, it is imperative to combine that knowledge with resolution and observation, to be successful. A representative of UCO’s campus police department, who wishes to remain anonymous, stressed, “If you have the mindset, ‘I will survive’, then you’ll survive,” the officer continued by saying, “If there is a shooter, one-fourth of the students in a classroom will be leaders. The others will be followers. That’s just the way it is.” The representative was reassuring in the state of UCO’s response to a shooter on school grounds, saying that all officers must undergo Active Shooting Training, professors are refreshed on annual safety instruction, and the university works closely with Edmond’s police department, Highway Patrol, and Oklahoma Bureau of Investigation. “There were telltale signs in the Arizona case. Campus police there were able to read into the possible risk,” the UCO police officer said in reference to Jared Loughner, the shooter that took the lives of six people in Tucson on Jan. 8. Campus police at Pima Community College had five reported contacts with Loughner, and were integral in his expulsion from the school for his Code of Conduct violations. UCO’s administration constantly anticipates threats and has crafted a superbly connected prevention/response regiment. The research and resources this campus uses is far beyond that of Pima Community College, and as long as students remain aware of warning signs and educate themselves in matters of defense the likelihood of an active shooter crisis is minimal.

CURTAIN LIFTS ON ‘101 YEARS OF BROADWAY’ UCO’s Broadway tonight presents Neil Berg’s “101 Years of Broadway” on Friday, Jan. 21 at 7:30 p.m. on the UCO campus in Mitchell Hall Theater. Five Broadway performers will be singing songs from more than a century’s worth of hit Broadway musicals. Last season’s production of 100 Years of Broadway was well-received, thus the return for this season. Touring in over 120 cities, 101 Years of Broadway is now the No.1 Broadway touring concert in the United States. By bringing the heart of NYC to the community as well as students, the College of Fine Arts and Design will be teaming up with the UCO organization Broadway Tonight to bring Broadway tours and entertainers to UCO. Five Broadway stars: Carter Calvert, Rob Evan, Sandra Joseph, Marc Kudish and Danny Zolli will be singing songs from more than a century’s worth of hit Broadway musicals. Songs such as “Don’t Rain On My Parade” and “Phantom of the Opera” will be performed. The musical revue explores the history of Broadway, consisting of songs from the early 1900s until Wicked. The new and old songs give the audience the ability to “hear a little bit of everything,” Susan Clark said.
dents perform for the cast and in return are given advice and detailed criticism. Broadway Tonight’s producer Greg White said, “Our students perform for the creative team, somewhat like American Idol, but with much more feedback.”

The hands-on experience and ability to work with Broadway stars “offers students an education that can’t be learned in a classroom,” White said. One UCO student will be singing with the stars. The tour promoted an Internet contest that gave students the opportunity to submit a video of them singing. From the submitted videos, a surprise star will be chosen to sing with the cast. “All of the performers have performed on Broadway, some even nominated for Tony Awards, so this is the real deal,” White said. He added,“ The show is almost like a little talent show, but with the big guns!”
Don’t Be Sad...
THEORY DETERMINES MONDAY SADDEST DAY OF YEAR By Christie Southern / Staff Writer The cellphone alarm drags you out bed. Groggily you rub your tired eyes and stifle a yawn, gritting your teeth as your bare skin is exposed to the frigid morning air. Discarded nicotine patches are stuck to the trash liner, five-and-ten pound free weights in the corner beg for attention, and a high pile of store credit cards, internet and electric bills with the due date circled in red sit on your small dinning table. As the rain streaks down your car window and you stare down the barrel of yet another week of drudgery, you find yourself suffused with an even keener sense of dread than usual. This past Monday not only marked the anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr., Day but also “Blue Monday,” a media-created psychological theory dubbed the most depressing day of the year. According to a 2005 study by Cliff Arnalls, a former part time tutor at Cardiff University, the third Monday of every January, decidedly so by a formulaic system, constitutes the saddest day of the year due to the foul weather, debt, fading Christmas memories, failed reso-
lutions and outright lack of motivation. According to the study, by this particular Monday, most people will have fallen off the wagon or abandoned hope, as they fail to keep New Year’s resolutions. That compounds a sense of failure and knocks confidence needed to get through January, Arnall said in a release back in 2005. All of it, according to the theory, converges on Jan. 17, 2011 and makes us depressed. On paper, the formula looks like this: W + (D-d) x TQ/ M x NA The variables are (W) weather, (D) debt, (d) monthly salary, (T) time since Christmas, (Q) time since failure to quit a bad habit, (M) low motivational levels and (NA), the need to take action. The formula says winter plus the day minus debt from the holidays and the time since we’ve failed our New Year’s resolutions equals the quotient and results in low motivational levels and a feeling of need to take action. The formula was picked up and circulated
by a public relations agency in England and held up as something of a breakthrough. When academics studied it and it was found to be nonsense, concocted for marketing purposes, the university rejected the idea and fired Arnall as well. However, no one needs an equation like this to tell them that horrible weather, no holidays in sight and a bad economy are the perfect storm for feeling generally depressed around this time of the year. Mental health experts in Utah say whether or not Jan. 17 is the most depressing day of the year, January and February are the busiest months of the year for crisis intervention workers and suicide hotlines. Jan Chapel, UCO Coordinator of Student Counseling Services (SCS) said there is no specific increase in student seeking counseling around this time due to it being the beginning of the semester. However, depression and anxiety is what the SCS sees most often throughout the year. Changes in sleeping patterns, loss

Fred Rice, superintendent of Water Resources, Edmond’s municipal water plant, explained that as the regulations stand now, the plant is required only to check for total Chromium. The plant tests the surface water and groundwater sources, which includes Lake Arcadia and 56 water wells. Total Chromium tests include the element in its trivalent (Chromium-3) and hexavalent forms, an important distinction, according to Rice. The naturally occurring chemical is normally found in its trivalent form. “Chromium-6 is not a very stable form of the element, which prefers to be in the trivalent state,” Rice said. Rice, who has more than 30 years experience in the water business, also cited that scientists studying the substance speculate that our bodies might actually convert ingested chromium from the harmful hexavalent state to its nutritious trivalent form during digestion. Chromium is an important mineral for the human body, but as highlighted in the film “Erin Brockovich,” the substance can cause cancer when a person is exposed to it excessively. The film was based on actual events in an “agricultural area with a very high level” of the element, Frech said. Chromium-6 can be an oxidizing agent, which means “it can cause some other molecules or atoms to change and that’s one of the harmful aspects of it,” Frech said. She explained further that it was discovered as a carcinogen when plant workers became sick with lung cancer after breathing in airborne
Dr. J. Brad Morelli with the office of legal counsel at UCO works in the office that handles these requests. “If you look at the Open Records Act, if the request is made, we have absolutely no way of controlling where it goes,” Morelli said. Students receiving e-mails from textbook stores, tutoring programs, and military recruiters can trace their information back to open records requests to Morelli’s office. Wells said he was concerned that his information was being sold to companies, but Morelli describes the process by which they provide as just covering the cost of the service. “There’s a section in the statute that lets us charge the cost of setting the list up, and that’s if it’s for a commercial purpose,” Morelli said. “If it’s for a newspaper, or for instance the military recruiters or another government entity, then we don’t charge for those.” Morelli said that military recruiters request this information often, and they operate on a schedule for making records requests. Students who wish to remove themselves from the directory may do so based on a clause in the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. Forms for requesting the removal of student information from directory lists are available in Enrollment Management, Nigh University Center Room 124. But Morelli said that students who remove themselves from the list might find themselves later having more difficulty in verifying their enrollment with UCO when offered a special deal for students. “So there’s a downside for it too,” Morelli said.
chromium at work. The EWG’s report has caused quite a stir in Oklahoma specifically because “lo and behold, Norman, Okla., has the highest Chromium-6 level of any city that they tested,” said Frech, a Norman resident. The exact level of hexavalent chromium found in Norman’s tap water was 12.9 parts per billion (ppb). Honolulu, Hawaii, came in second with only two ppb. Despite the seemingly large gap, when thinking in terms of a billion units, these numbers are both extremely low. According to Rice, state regulations require Water Resources to maintain a total chromium level below 100. This past year the average total chromium levels detected in Edmond’s tap water fell between zero and 7.69 (zero indicating only that it fell below the detection level). “So we are way, way below,” Rice said. “It could be the geology,” Frech said. “The city of Norman gets its water from the GarberWellington aquifer and Lake Thunderbird.” There is a good possibility that the element is coming from a natural source, Frech said, explaining that because it is found in rocks it could easily seep through the rock layers and into the aquifer. Regardless, Frech does not seem to be concerned. “I don’t think it’s time to panic,” she said. Rice shared the same notion. “Especially in Edmond, we don’t have an issue,” he said. “It is too early to say that this could be problematic.”
of interest, irritability and thoughts of suicide are among the signs indicate depression. Chapel advices students with these symptoms to come to counseling immediately, especially if they start to have suicidal thoughts “Exercise is one of the best things [students] can do,” she said. Chapel also recommends getting out in the sun as much as possible and socializing with other people to beat the winter blues. Since its creation, Blue Monday has become for some more of an annual day to reflect upon one’s general level of unhappiness despite the lack of scientifical evidence. At the very least, since misery loves company, it’s nice to know that everyone around was experiencing the blues, too. “I didn’t think Monday was depressing,” Donovan Hughes, freshman said. “It was warm and sunny, I went running.” Hughes admits that a lot of people and students in particular put themsewlves in a situation to feel sad. “People need to get out more often,” he said. “It’s never as bad as it looks.” The same formula that says Jan. 17 was the saddest day of the year also says June 17 will be the happiest. Only five months to go.
Morelli said he believed students who optout of directory placement could talk to Enrollment Management to work out one-time releases for enrollment verification to a bank or car dealership for example, but such arrangements would need to be made through the Enrollment Management office and not the office of legal counsel. Despite the fact that removing his name from the list will not retroactively remove him from the e-mail list for marketers, Wells said he is going to get himself removed from the directory. “I’m glad to know this,” he said. “I had no idea.”
How To Be Removed From UCO’s Public Directory Students who do not want to be in the publicly available directory may remove themselves if they so choose. Forms for requesting the removal of student information from the directory are available in Enrollment Management, Nigh University Center Room 124 Students who remove themselves from the list may still receive notices from vendors who already have their information and will need to work with the vendor to be removed from their systems.

A professor of music and composerin-residence at UCO, Samuel Magrill, released his ninth CD, “Cello Music of Samuel Magrill: Volume II” internationally in December 2010. The CD features collaborations with several faculty members. Magrill came to UCO in 1988 because he had the chance to develop the theory program, composition program and also computer music. Previously, he taught at the University of Wyoming and California State University, Long Beach. According to his faculty website, he has written more than one hundred compositions, ranging from solo piano and chamber music to choir, wind ensemble and symphony orchestra. His works have been performed throughout the United States and abroad and at many regional and national conferences, including the National Flute Association, Society of Composers, Inc, and the College Music Society. The website states Magrill has also received numerous awards and commissions, including ones from the National Endowment for the Arts, the American Music Center, the Mid-America Arts Alliance, the Illinois Arts Council, the Oklahoma Teachers’ Association, the American Composers’ Forum’s Continental Harmony Program and faculty research grants and merit credit awards from the University of Central Oklahoma. Magrill said he wanted to be a musician all his life. “I liked moving to music, and enjoyed listening to music, also it is a good way to work with other people, too,” Magrill said. As an undergraduate, he did a premed degree as well as a composition degree. “I like math and science as well, but I decided I really enjoyed playing the piano and accompanying and writing music,” he said. Magrill went to Oberlin Conservatory in Ohio to get his Bachelor of Music in Composition, and he received his Master of Music and Doctor of Musical Arts degrees in Composition from the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana. “I did two electronic CDs when I first came, and those were interesting. But then I started writing operas, so I have four operas I wrote on a CD that were all performed here. That was quite exciting…it was children’s operas, full cast and full orchestra,” Magrill said. The operas were “The Gorgon’s Head,” “Paradise of Children and the Gremlins Who Stole It,” “Showdown on Two Street” and “Circe’s Palace.” They were written from 1997-2000, and were produced at UCO. He added he wrote music for Tess Remy-Schumacher. “I wrote a lot of music for the cellist, Tess Remy-Schumacher. She came in 1998, and I wrote a lot of music for her, and this particular CD is a Second Volume of Cello Music that I’ve written for her. But meanwhile, there was another CD that had a piece I wrote for her on it

Dr. Samuel Magrill, UCO professor of music and composer recently released his ninth CD, “Cello Music of Samuel Magrill: Volume II.”
as well.” Magrill said, “The main idea was to involve two projects which would involve mostly UCO performers and show off what a wonderful music school we have and help people grow by performing new music.” Magrill mostly composes the music, but he also performs some. He decided to do CDs because at a certain point he realized he had written so much music, it would be enough for a CD. Magrill said he likes the operas and cello CDs, but this last one is probably in some ways the most professional. “It is a very diverse and demanding CD, because it has cellos and an orchestra, and the Dean of Fine Arts & Design, John Clinton, is the conductor of the orchestra, and it features two cellists, Tress Remy-Schumacher and Kristin Underwood,” he said. He added the piece was first performed in Australia in 2001, which is when it was written. “It had its premiere performance in the United States in 2010 and then we made the CD,” Magrill said. There are five pieces on the CD. They are “Double Concerto,” “Remy,” “Tango Cellito,” “Shalom” and “East West Duo.” The process of releasing this CD was not easy. He had to write the music, write a grant proposal, and once they had received the grant, they were able to put the CD into motion. “We found the Jazz Lab and also St. Mary’s Church; we couldn’t use St. Mary’s Church when we needed a piano because there wasn’t one, so we worked that out, found groups, and started rehearsing the compositions. Some of the compositions we were playing inconcert last spring, but recordings were done last summer, and then it was a matter of the recording engineer splicing and editing and making a good mix,” he said. Putting the Chamber Orchestra together took a lot of work; they had a one-day rehearsal and one-day recording, so he was hoping the people would
come. Magrill said he worked on it on and off for more than one year, but they had actually four days of recording. “All of it took a lot of time,” he said. Also, Magrill wrote a faculty grant to get funded by UCO’s Office of Research and Grants as well as the UCO Center for Arts Education. The CD cover art was done by Chelsea Banks, who is a freshman at UCO. Magrill said it was a painting Banks gave to Remy-Schumacher as a gift. “She did the cover as a painting and gave it as a gift to Tess, so we thought this would be a nice cover,” he said. A lot of students are on the CD; all the cello ensemble pieces were done by cello students of Remy-Schumacher. The chamber orchestra for the “Double Concerto” is partly UCO students, partly Alumni from UCO and partly members from the Oklahoma Youth Orchestra. “It’s a real mix. There are a lot of people involved in this. I think the opera CDs were quite exciting also, but we didn’t spend as much time recording them. This has a little bit more refinement in the editing,” Magrill said. He added there is an international flavor to this CD. Magrill said, “There is a Tango involved which is South-American, the ‘East West Duo’ is Indian, and it has ‘Shalom’ which is like a Hebrew prayer, and there are the classical pieces.” The CD is available on www.cdbaby. com and costs approximately $12.95 to purchase the CD and $9.95 for the digital version. The money will go back to the school and future projects of his. Magrill said, “It’s been wonderful working at UCO. Over the years I’ve had a lot of wonderful colleagues I have collaborated with. Tess [Remy-Schumacher] was sort of the inspiration and I wanted to do some new music; in 12 years I’ve written about 15 pieces for her.”
DeOren Robinson: What is your definition of insanity in today’s society? We all know what Einstein said: “insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results,” and a professor I know said “bless her heart,” but like many things, the definition of insanity is a relative term. In fact, the only way to gauge what constitutes normal is to use the average of the entirety as an indicator. So the bar is always sliding in relation to society as a whole. I have heard that you can take a look at your three best friends and if they seem normal, then you might be the odd one out. On average, three out of four people are not insane, but what if you look at your three closest friends and they all seem crazy? Could that not also indicate that you are the one that is abnormal and might need to seek professional assistance? There is a fairy tale about a King and Queen that ruled a pleasant kingdom. The land was filled with content subjects that respected and honored the benevolent leadership of their divine rulers. There was order and peace and the commoners worked the land with a smile on their face and the shining sun on their backs. No one had ever thought to question anything, because there never seemed to be a thing to question. After all, it can only be a problem if there is a solution and why think of a solution when things have always been OK. The kingdom flourished and continued to grow in both size and wealth. The King and Queen loved their kingdom and its people and saw themselves as equals apart from title and duty, but the land had grown dense from all of the work and growing number of workers. Some of the commoners didn’t share the same standards of cleanliness or hygiene. So the King and Queen decided to dig a well, as a new source of water strictly for the royal family. Things continued as always, except for the separate supply of water. Over time the commoners began to behave differently. They were no longer content with only working the land and living a simple life that consisted of their daily bread. They increasingly began to question the seemingly detatched standards and policies of the King and Queen. The royal family couldn’t help but notice the growing discontent and rebeliousness of their subjects. The divide between the two classes continued to grow until the Queen realized that all of their troubles had began with the new well and the separate supply of water. She concluded that there must be something in the water supply. Things continued to get worse, and the angry voice of the people became impossible to ignore. The King and Queen had lost control of their kingdom, and in a desperate attempt to retain their status they descended upon the land, where the working people lived, and drank from the now old and musty fountainhead. The tepid fluid had the taste of rusted metal, but it quenched the Queen’s thirst just the same. And as she slowly wiped the drop of water from her chin using her delicate glove covered hand, she realized that it wasn’t the people that had changed or the water, but that somehow over time her taste had grown accustomed to a different source of nourishment. She realized that her and her king were no longer separate but equal, only separate. She realized all this in the eight seconds that the brain remained concious after her head was severed from her royal body. And the people lived insanely happy ever after, ruling themselves. www.facebook.com/askandrew Call or Text your questions to (405) 293-3ASK
Campus Economy
UCOSA TO DISCUSS FEE INCREASES By Kory Oswald / Senior Staff Writer Members of UCO’s Student Association (UCOSA) will host an open meeting for all students tonight at 6:30 in room 301 in the Nigh University Center, to answer questions and discuss efforts to increase the Student Activity Fees (SAF) students pay to attend UCO. David Jenkins, President Pro Tempore of UCOSA, and Matt Blubaugh, student body president, are working on legislation that would increase the student fees by as much as ten dollars per credit hour for each student. The SAF funds the annual budget requests of student organizations on campus, campus wide events and scholarships, as well as the Division of Student Affairs and related departments like international student services, Greek life, and Athletics. Students currently pay $8.25 per credit hour
in SAF, a rate that Jenkins said has not increased in 11 years. “We don’t want to do just ... a little small increase because it’s been neglected for the past decade at least,” Jenkins said. “Right now we’ve been told that UCO is supposed to grow by another 1,000 students next year, so we want to plan for a little bit of growth.” Jenkins said that although tuition has been increased, along with course fees, the SAF has not increased. “Thats the only fee on campus that students have any ... actual input on; if it goes up or not, or how much, or what we can do with it,” Jenkins said. Jenkins also said that because the SAF have not been increased in recent years, the General Conference Committee on Appropriations (GCCA), the UCOSA committee that decides how much money goes to student groups, has
not been able to accommodate increased request for funding. “We had just under one million dollars in requests for funds and we had a little over $347,000,” Jenkins said. “So there was a $700,000 gap in what was requested and what we allocated. The average student is enrolled in 13.3 hours a semester at UCO, according to Jenkins. This means that a student is currently paying $109.73 a semester in SAF. If the increase is approved at the amount Jenkins is pushing for, students will pay $242.73 in SAF on average. Jenkins hopes to have the legislation to UCOSA by Jan. 31. If approved, it would go to a student body vote, which he hopes to have on March 1. If students approve the increase, the measure would then have to go to the State Regents for approval. The regents would vote in April.

UCO Hockey
By Chris Wescott / Sports Editor The No. 18 UCO hockey team added four games to their current six game win-streak by sweeping No. 6 Arizona State and the United States Naval Academy this past weekend at Arctic Edge Arena in Edmond. Considered a critical homestand for UCO’s playoff hopes, this weekend’s 3-2 and 4-1 wins over Arizona State and 3-1 and 2-1 wins over Navy may launch the Bronchos back into the top 15 rankings. On Thursday night, the Bronchos hosted the sixth ranked team in the American Collegiate Hockey Association. The Arizona State Sundevils and the Bronchos’ series was even at 6-6 prior to this weekend’s series. UCO opened up the scoring in the series with 2:14 left in the first period of Thursday night’s game. Freshman Donald Geary was credited with the unassisted goal. 7:56 into the second frame, Colin Hekle scored for the Sundevils on the power play assisted by Darcy Charrois and Brett Prechel. The Bronchos took the lead 31 seconds later, when team captain Nick Novak scored his first goal of the season, assisted by Erik Jansen and Jonathan Cannizzo. Cannizzo rounded out the second period scoring at 13:05 of the frame with his fourth shorthanded goal of the season. He was assisted by fellow senior Erik Jansen. With 6:32 left in the game, the Sundevils scored to pull within one at 3-2, but a late ASU penalty helped UCO seal the victory UCO harassed ASU’s reserve goaltender Kyle Dietriech who made the start in place of the normal starter Mark Shacker. They put 30 shots on net, with several big rushes. UCO’s goaltender Nick Holmes made 32 saves on 34 shots Thursday night. The Bron-

States Naval Academy came into the weekend 14-6-1-0 on the season. Freshman Conrad Kersten got the start in net for the Bronchos. The Bronchos scored 33 seconds into the second period when Novak scored his second goal of the weekend. He was assisted by Edmond native Luke Ward and senior Brent Block. Tommy Reed scored for Navy at 12:12 of the second frame and tied the game 1-1. JCannizzo continued to add to his team leading point total with a score, assisted by defenseman Casey Lehmann. With 7:52 left in the game, Ward scored assisted by Adam Hull and Hayden Scolaro. The Bronchos went on to win 3-1. Sunday’s game against Navy was the Bronchos’ fourth in four days. Kersten made his second straight start for the Bronchos and
made 35 saves on route to a 2-1 win. UCO hits the road this weekend and looks to extend their win-streak against the No. 1 team in the nation, the Lindenwood Lions. The games are Friday and Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. GAME NOTES: The Bronchos’ six-game win-streak is their longest of the season, doubling their previous best of three… UCO is now 6-0 in 2011… Erik Jansen had two assists in his first game back with the Bronchos… Jonathan Cannizzo moved to second in the league in shorthanded goals with four… Starting goaltender Nick Holmes suffered an ankle injury on Friday night against Arizona State and is day-to-day...
TRACK & FIELD SET TO START By Taylor Points / Contributing Writer
Junior guard Tyler Pillips (11) looks to make a pass during a game against Cameron University. Phillips is averaging 10.5 points per game.
By Chris Wescott / Sports Editor Central Oklahoma guard Tyler Phillips is a gamer. The Broncho baller stands tall at 6-foot-5 and plays taller. Following his 2009-2010 campaign, Phillips was honored as a second-team All-Lone Star Conference selection. He averaged 11.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.2 steals per game and started in all but three contests as a sophomore. Phillips has followed last year’s breakout season with a strong start to this one. Through the first 18 games of the season, Phillips ranks fourth on the team in total points with 189. He averages a respectable 10.5 points per game and has tallied over 40 assists. His tall figure and long reach has allowed him to nab 15 steals and five blocks. Phillips is also fourth on the team in rebounds with 72.51 of those have been on the defensive side of the court. Phillips makes over 68 percent of his free throws and over 33 percent of his three point shots. The junior said that one aspect of his game that he has worked hard to hone is his strength and ability to make plays in the paint. “Over the offseason, I really worked on my strength,” Phillips said. “I’ve been really working on my strength to get inside, play down low, get physical down low so when I have mismatches when they put a guard on me, I can go down low instead of just relying on my three-point shot.” Phillips said that he has also taken it upon himself to be somewhat of a leader in the locker room. While he prefers to be a leader by example, Phillips said he is not afraid to be vocal if it keeps the team headed in the
right direction. “I try to lead by example,” Phillips said. “But I definitely don’t mind being vocal with the team. We need that. We need someone that can… get after us when we’re not really focused and things are kind of getting lackadaisical on the court or things start going the wrong way. We need someone to give us a lift. I try to do that. I don’t try to cuss players out or point out the negatives. I try to encourage and just uplift the team. Keep our spirits high and headed toward the right direction.” Phillips has been with the Bronchos for five years and although he has been on some very successful Broncho squads, he said this may be one of the better rosters he has been a part of in his career. “Coming in this summer I really felt athletic-wise, talent-wise we really had one of the strongest teams I’d been around since I’d been here. What really separates some of the teams is passes, chemistry, playing well, understanding the game. Talent doesn’t win it all, but this year I think we’re all clicking. We are all great friends, we all play together. There are no egos on the team, there’s no cliques.” The closeness of the team could be a reason why the Bronchos started the year 162, and look poised to capture another Lone Star Conference North Division Title. Phillips’ leadership and veteran presence may also be a factor in UCO’s fantastic start to the 2010-2011 season. Either way, Phillips is a gamer, the Bronchos are good, and big things are in store for both the team and the player for the rest of 2011 and hopefully beyond.
UCO will be sending four athletes to Norman this Saturday to compete in the J.D. Martin Invitational track meet. Madison Berryman, Hannah Gibson, Daysha Harak, and Lacey Rhodes look to hone their skills before the season officially begins. Saturday’s meet will serve as a final tune-up before the Oklahoma Christian Invitational. Daysha and Hannah will compete in the pole vault while Madison and Lacey compete in the long jump. Lacey will also be compet-
ing in the high jump and hurdles. Coach Brennan expressed confidence in her athletes and is looking forward to the meet this weekend. “These are kids that have been practicing pretty well and have had a good, successful history in the events they are competing in,” Brennan said. Entries for the meet had to be submitted today, but Coach Brennan expects the competition to consist of mostly Division I schools including the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University.

UCO catcher Arrow Cunningham gets ready to deliver the ball to the pitcher during their intrasquad on Wednesday. Cunningham is expected to be the starter for the Bronchos who host East New Mexico University on February 4 to open the season.
UCO’S CUNNINGHAM A STRAIGHT ARROW UCO made a splash this off-season by hiring new head coach, Dax Leone. Leone brings with him a very strong work ethic and also an outstanding pitching background. Any baseball expert will tell you that the most important part of the game is pitching. However, the second most important part is defense. The defensive side of baseball is led by the players who play up the middle. The catcher, shortstop, second baseman and center fielder are usually the best athletes on the field. They make the most important plays and are usually found on the web gyms portion of Baseball Tonight. The most important defensive player on a baseball team, however, is the catcher. The catcher handles more than any other player on the diamond. Besides the pitcher, he has the baseball in his hand more than anyone
else and he controls the defensive play calling. Along with all of that comes the toughest part of any defensive player’s job, handling the pitching staff. Leone said that his catcher, Arrow Cunningham, a senior from Harrah, is the perfect example of what it really means to be a Central Oklahoma Broncho. “Arrow is a really great kid and a real baseball guy,” Leone said. “He takes a lot of ownership behind the plate and that’s what we’re looking for out of every guy on the team. He really understands the game.” Leone will do most of the pitch calling throughout the season, however he knows that Cunningham is on the same page as him. “He understands what I’m going to call in different situations,” Leone said. “He’s a smart guy back there and when we’re on the same page everything runs a little bit smoother.” Cunningham hit .300 with 18 runs driven
WRESTLERS WIN BIG By Michael Collins / Sports Writer This past weekend, the UCO men’s wrestling team took on four different opponents at the Lone Star Duals, each ended the same: with a win. Standing at 11-2 so far this season, UCO has had its share of big wins. “We are definitely hitting our stride; we went into Lone Star Duals coming off a big win against Fort Hays. We still have a lot of work to do but as long as we continue to improve and pick up some more wins we are on the right where we need to be,” senior Michael Walcup said while talking about the state of the team at this point in the season. Walcup finished the Duals 2-0, winning one by pinning his opponent and the other by forfeit. When asked about who he thought was the most outstanding performer during the duals Walcup said, “I think Trison Graham wrestled fantastic at the Lone Star Duals, he came off a big win Thursday night against the #4 guy in the nation and continued to dominate this past Saturday. Coach always tells us to chase that “perfect match” and Trison keeps getting closer and closer. He’s a workhorse.” Trison went 4-0 Saturday, three of those vs. actual opponents and one coming by the way of a forfeit. Trison completely overwhelmed the other teams with his speed and quickness. The fact he was able to keep it up for three matches is pretty amazing. When looking at the scores from the matches, one stands out more than the others, a 58-0 drubbing of Central Baptist. While that sounds more like a football score than a wrestling score, UCO did in fact score a shutout against their overwhelmed opponent. The score versus Wayland Baptist was not much closer, 39-6 actually does not do UCO much justice. “Wayland Baptist is a first-year program and will be building up their program for a while, they just weren’t very experienced,” Walcup said. The big match of the day though has to be the 23-22 win over Arizona State. This dual actually came down to the final match and it wasn’t until it was all said and done that the Bronchos know if they scored the win. “It was a pretty good weekend for us,” head coach
David James said. “I was proud of the way we competed today. We got a lot of bonus wins and wrestled well for the most part. We just need to keep developing and keep getting better.” If the Bronchos keep getting better, the sky is the limit. When asked about how good this team really is, Walcup said, “That’s a tough one, I’ve been a part of a lot of great teams here at UCO and have been around a lot of talented wrestlers. Obviously, being on the National Championship squad in 2007, I’d have to rank them ahead of us, but we aren’t too far behind. We have some ranked guys as well as some other guys stepping up. I think we can hang with anyone in the country and definitely contend for a national title. This team has more talent than those of the past two or three years I think.” On Tap Adams State College 1/22 at 2:00pm, former Bronchos will be on hand to help cheer on their Bronchos as well as honored for their past performances. UCO will be led by four Bronchos that have 20 plus wins, Derrick Adkins (24-13), Trison Graham (21-13), Tanner Keck (22-9), and Kelly Henderson (20-8).
in last season as the Bronchos went 13-29. Leone said that Cunningham has been staying after practice and working hard on his swing. “Arrow stays after practice everyday and works on his hitting,” Leone said. “Last year really left a bad taste in his mouth and he has shown he’s willing to improve.” “I could see Arrow hitting around the five or six spot in the lineup and I think he will definitely have a more productive year for us,” Leone said. The leadership role on a baseball field is usually found from the coaching staff and the catcher. The catcher has to be the most vocal player and the biggest leader on the diamond. Cunningham is a senior and he has shown that he will be one of the team’s leaders on and off the field. “He is a very emotional guy,” Leone said. “He really wants the team to improve everyday and he lets people know about it. He’s
definitely the vocal leader on the team and he will push everybody to be better.” The baseball program has taken a step in the right direction in the recent past. The hiring of Leone started the process and his abilities to get along with players like Cunningham is the key reason he will be successful at Central. He exhibits a quality of leadership that has been contagious to his players. Cunningham has shown the work ethic that it takes to play for a coach like Leone and it has paid off so far this off-season. Cunningham might be the team’s most improved and most important player. He will have a lot of weight on his shoulders throughout the year, not unlike most catchers at most universities. His attitude on and off the field will be the key to his success and he should help the Bronchos change the attitude about baseball at Central Oklahoma.
