Spending decrease ordered to alleviate deficit By Mary Reinauer Staff Writer
ix areas funded by the UCO student activity fee as well as revenues generated by 104 student groups were told to make a 10 percent across the board decrease in expenditures Sept. 25, said Sharon Martin, director of the budget. These steps are being taken in order to reduce the $800,000 deficit in UCO's 1996/1997 budget. Thrifty tactics will also be implemented in the Educational and General (E&G) Budget, she said. "For example, because the student technology fee is earmarked, those funds will need to be reduced to meet projected revenue," said Martin. The cuts have already impacted all

—Sharon Martin director of budget areas of the Campus Activity Fund, said Martin. The budget came up short because enrollment dropped by 853 students for the fall semester and similar reductions are projected for spring, announced UCO President George Nigh last week. These areas will also identify money that was over-budgeted last year and appropriate reductions will be made to the budget, Martin said.
That is, if an organization's budget showed a balance last year, that amount will be subtracted for the new budget, she said. The total effect will be that student organizations will have to scale down their activities. Vice president for administration, Dr. Cornelius Wooten sent letters to campus activity budget managers last week with instructions for "reduction efforts and conservative management practices."
Department chairs will review the areas where less can be spent and make reports to Martin within two weeks. If these measures are insufficient, more cuts will be made, stated the letter. The E&G expenditures will naturally reduce somewhat because there are fewer students to serve. In addition, the president's management team will identify areas where cuts are appropriate, said Martin. The Vista's efforts to reach Nigh for comment were unsuccessful. Wooten refused to meet with reporters until he talked to Nigh. There is no plan to cut employees or wages and the 3 percent raise for faculty and staff is still scheduled to begin in January, Martin said.

EDITORIAL
School spirit soars or many years, UCO has been known as a good place to get a quality education at an affordable price. Especially if you needed to take night classes and make school fit around a work schedule. And that's still true, but UCO's reputation is changing. Slowly but surely, school spirit at Central is growing. Spirit isn't a tangible thing that can be measured with a yardstick or gagues. But there are subtle signs, both on and off-campus. In our-Back-to-School issue, we asked students what they thought of the new food court. One responded that it made UCO seem like a "real university." Last week the cover of The Oklahoman's TV guide had "Sports in Oklahoma" with three cheerleaders. One from the University of Oklahoma, one from Oklahoma State University and one from UCO. It's likely that in the past, just OU and OSU would've been represented. Over eight thousand people watched the Bronchos trample the Langston Lions Saturday. But the surprising thing was the number of people wearing UCO T-shirts, ball caps or sweatshirts. . Coverage of our homecoming victory was on the front page of The Oklahoman's Sunday's sport's section. The Wantland stadium press box was full for the football game. All quiet but powerful statements that we're gaining attention from those off campus too. Some might say more emphasis on athletics would hurt the university. But the rah-rah spirit needn't detract from the academic spirit. A good football team doesn't make honor rolls any less important. Increased exposure for UCO will benefit everyone. Let's face it, in Oklahoma football means money, and not just for the sports departments. Even serious scholars should look forward to Broncho play4 by-plays from Bob Barry, Jr.

LETTERS
Student defends PLC membership requirements letter was written by Brian Morton that appeared in the Sept. 24 issue of The Vista asking students how they felt about being forced to pay for organizations they cannot join. Anyone can join the President's Leadership Council if he or she displays enough academic and leadership ability. Anyone can also join the football team (which, by the way, receives way more funding than PLC) if he displays enough athletic ability. And anyone can join the drama club if he or she is dramatic enough. All of these organizations come from students' money. All of them have criteria that must be met before joining. As students, if we work hard, we're rewarded for our talents with scholarships, recognition and prestige, no matter what those talents may be. In college, we're prepared for the competition that life brings, where if you've got what it takes, you make it to the top. If just anyone is allowed privilege and reward they have not worked for, it takes away the drive to
A
succeed for others. I appreciate the effort that Mr. Morton has put into his research, and I have done some research as well. I wonder when Mr. Morton refers to the betterment of ALL students, if he is not actually referring to himself being denied of joining PLC because he didn't meet the criteria. I have no interest in PLC, I probably couldn't throw a football to save my life and I don't have a dramatic bone in my body, but I respect these talents and I don't feel their funding should be cut because they only reward those who work the hardest in their particular field of purpose. In fact, they should be commended for it. I encourage Mr. Morton to think about what he is asking. In the real world, if we allow just anyone to join a particular field without the proper qualifications, it would be a scary place to live. Furthermore, those who display talent should not have to sacrifice the reward for those who don't. —Kelly Ridge UCO student

MS not fatal but kills the soul, student attests
I
am responding to the Sept. 24 article "Misconception of MS Clarified." I felt the article made MS sound less important than the other diseases listed. MS is rarely fatal, but you ask any patients with severe MS and they will tell you they wish it were. There are many stages of MS and it is different for every person. Some patients may be able to live normal lives. Others need wheelchairs or canes, others are bedridden and hooked to machines. My father is in a wheelchair and in the not-so-distant future,
he may be bedridden. He has asked me not to hook him to machines. MS does kill. It kills the soul, and without the soul there is no life. Those who can lead normal lives are fortunate, but those who can't should not be made to feel undignified, because MS is rarely fatal. The prognosis of MS is different for every person; it is the most mysterious disease without a cure. - Melinda Belcher UCO student Editor's note: "Misconception of MS clarified" was a letter to the editor and not an article.
Call to cast ballot for Logan County sheriff in Nov. 5 elections
D
oug Powell is forward-minded and demonstrates the aggressive performance of nonpariel competence. This is very evident by his ability to double the amount of deputies under his administration. Sheriff Powell is direct in action and decisive in results as demonstrated by the reduction of the residential burglary rate-reduced by 49.9 percent-as well as the establishment of a sheriff's reserve force. Sheriff Powell is deeply devoted to his profession. He demonstrates remarkable versatility and capability. Sheriff
Powell's K-9 drug interdiction as well as alcohol interdiction units are sure examples of his zero tolerance for illegal drugs and drunk drivers. Sheriff Powell accepts all challenges and responsibilities without wavering. If this is the type of professional you want to continue to tackle the tough business of crime, the choice is clear. Vote on Nov. 5 to retain Doug Powell as your sheriff for Logan County. -Raymond L. Nunn Criminal Justice Mgt. and Adm.

Housing policy still stands... Visitation regulations for residents to preserve safety By Jessica Halliburton Staff Writer
The campus needs to be -concerned for safety of all individuals. Things can happen that people don't always think about.
R
esident students with visiting minor relatives or friends might find housing rules on the issue a bit harsh, but they may not be putting themselves in the shoes of the college who is ultimately responsible for the guest, said Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president of student services. The Student Housing Handbook specifically states that no guests under the age of 18 are allowed to stay the night in the dorms, especially those of the opposite sex. But what about those who are single parents and have visitation rights to a son or daughter? And what about those who have a little brother or sister who want to see what college life is all about? "My recommendation to the students who have visiting children is to live in married housing," said Dudley Ryan, vice president of student services. Ryan said a lot of singleparent students and even those who have only visitation rights to their children live in married housing because the rules are not as strict. But Ryan said the solution is not so easy for the student who wants a sibling to stay the night
—Dr. Dudley Ryan vice president of student services and check out college life. He said that allowing minors in residence halls under any circumstances can lead to serious problems. Ryan said that sometimes students will meet minors and invite them to their dorm room to visit. "Before you know it we've got 13- and 14-year olds in the halls at 1 in the morning," he said. Ryan said most of his concern stems from occurrences in the men's hall. "We are most interested in protecting our students from being accused of things such as assault and statutory rape," said Ryan. He said that there have been such accusations in the past. As for students wishing to have a visit from a sibling, all hope is not lost. "There are times that students can get a permit from housing for visiting brothers and sisters
under certain conditions," said Ryan. But then there is a problem with students who have visiting siblings of the opposite sex having no specific restroom and shower area, said Ryan. "The campus needs to be concerned for safety of all individuals. Things can happen
that people don't always think about," he said. "If there is a minor walking around in the halls, people wonder who is responsible for that person." A.K. Rahman, director of Auxiliary Enterprises, said that allowing minors in the residence halls would open the university

He said any visitors, such as younger brothers or sisters, can stay at the host houses. "We are getting two or three more host houses to accommodate visitors," said Rahman. Students can rent a single room host houses for overnight guests for $25. If students accompany their guests overnight, a double room host house can be rented for $16.

Debt clock reaches $800 million in one day U.S. government increases debt by $119 million at UCO
T
he United States government went another $800 million into debt last Wednesday, and the National Debt Clock ticked off more than 119 million of those dollars here at UCO. The clock, mounted on a 25foot trailer, flashes a second-bysecond representation of the increase in the current $5.2 trillion national debt, which grows by $9,500 each second. Displayed in front of the Home Economics Building from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sept. 25, the clock also showed the $79,000 that represents the -approximate debt share for an average American family of four. The clock's stop at UCO was part of a seven-week, 32state tour sponsored by the Concord Coalition. "The Concord Coalition, is a national nonpartisan
organization dedicated to eliminating the national deficit," said John Banks-Brooks, professor of business. The 170,000 member organization was founded in 1992 by former U.S. Senators, Paul Tsongas and Warren Rudman, said Banks-Brooks, who is the former coordinator of the New York state branch of the coalition. He and Dr. Michael Metzger, chairman of the economics department, organized the clock visit to coordinate with a UCO panel discussion on the national deficit. Dr. Jan Hardt and Dr. Don Maxwell, both professors of political science, will join Banks-Brooks as panelists to discuss how the outcome of the presidential elections could affect the deficit. The event, presented by the UCO Economics Club and the

VP unveils big plans for UCO 99
By Cynthia Chung

Staff Writer
xactly thirty-three days ago— • n not counting weekends and the Labor Day holiday, of course—Dr. Cornelius Wooten, UCO's new vice president of administration, unveiled his five major goals for the university. Before a packed house at the Aug. 14 staff/faculty meeting, Wooten outlined long-term objectives for service, support, resource management and construction. Thirty-three days later, here's how these plans panned out: •New approach to budget planning By mid-October, Wooten hopes to have in place a budget system that ensures and incorporates the "needs of each department" at UCO. Wooten seeks the active input of "all sections of the campus community" in putting together the budget for fiscal year 1997. A budget committee will be formed to conduct hearings into the expressed needs of each department. This committee, which will be represented by a wide cross-section of the campus population, will assess those needs and make the final proposal on who gets what and how much. The budget draft then goes to Nigh, who ultimately has the last say. •A. service oriented philosophy Wooten is a strong advocate of the service doctrine, especially among administrative ranks. ""The reason why we (the administration) exist is to provide an environment conducive to learning, living and working" at the university, Wooten said. He maintains that each member of the campus organization has a role to play. The students are here to gain a good education, the faculty delivers the instruction and the i

"The prescribed window of time" for response to other problems will ideally fall between 24 to 48 hours, Wooten said. •Wrap up of construction projects Much has been written about construction, and Wooten does not want to belabor the point. He briefly charts out a three-pronged approach to construction: the wrap-up of actual construction by August 1997; campus-wide landscaping with flower beds, trees, parks and walking trails by December 1997; and regular ground maintenance. -

able to put better pressure on him." UCO begins the Lone Star Conference schedule Saturday against Texas A&M Commerce, ranked seventh in NCAA Division II. Kickoff is 1 p.m. at Wantland Stadium. "We can do a lot better. We need to get better if we want to compete in this league," said Howard. "We've given up a lot of big plays." Langston last defeated UCO in 1973. The Lions entered the contest ranked No. 1 in NAIA after two wins over Division IAA teams. An estimated crowd of 8,335 watched UCO, No. 6 in NCAA II, beat LU for the 17th straight time. Howard raised his coaching record vs. the Lions to 14-0, along with 22-1 including his nine-year stint as UCO defensive
coordinator. He gained his first, 100th and 106th coaching wins against Langston. The 106th made him the winningest head football coach in school history. "I'm happy to continue that streak," he said. "I think they're a good team. If they continue to play the way they have, they'll beat some teams." Backup place-kicker Ronnie Gulikers tied a school record for most field goals in a game with four and a stadium record for longest field goal with a 48yarder early in the fourth quarter. The field goal gave UCO a 3620 lead. The Bronchos led 7-0 in the first quarter when quarterback Stanley Pena found wide receiver Shannon Hall for a 12yard touchdown pass with 7:36 left in the quarter. The Bronchos had driven 80 yards on seven
snaps, keyed by Alton Lusk's 30-yard run on a reverse. Pena moved past UCO Athletic Hall of Fame inductee Mike Rollins and Scott Burger into fourth place on UCO's career passing yardage list with his 196 yards. The 6-3, 208pound senior, who completed 15 of his 27 throws, now has 2,484 passing yards in his career. LU's Matt Hatchette answered by getting behind Hurley Tarver's coverage on a sideline route. Jones connected with Hatchette, who sped 92 yards for a touchdown and a 7-7 tie. UCO tailback Ryan Logan put his team ahead 14-7 with 9:03 left in the second quarter by scoring his team-leading fifth touchdown of the season on a two-yard run. Tight end Jett Cornett set up the short run with an 18-yard catch. Jones burned the UCO secondary again on the next drive. Hatchette nearly fumbled away the ball on the kickoff, but recovered it at the LU 3. Langston advanced the ball to the Lion 22-yard line. On a 2ndand-3 play, Jones hit Hatchette on a short route, then Hatchette broke two tackles on a 42-yard jaunt to the UCO 36. Wideout Adrian Fisher then got behind the defenders for a 36-yard touchdown and another tie score at 14. Linebacker Chad Gruver, who
also blocked a Lion extra point, set up Gulikers' 40-yard field goal by recovering punt returner Charles Towns' fumble at the UCO 48. After a 29-yard drive, Gulikers gave UCO a 17-14 lead. The Bronchos tried to increase the lead before the half by marching to the one-foot line after a Tarver interception with 26 seconds left. LU's Dwayne Henry and Joel Hughes stopped Pena's quarterback sneak just short of the goal line. After Evans' touchdown return, Lion tailback Robert Wright scored on a 21-yard run for a 24-20 deficit. Allen Brown's 58-yard kickoff return set up the touchdown. UCO freshman tailback Barry Antwine sparked the Broncho offense on another 80-yard drive, rushing five times for 42 yards and catching a swing pass for another 13. Pena put UCO up 30-20 by tossing an eight-yard touchdown pass to Jett Cornett in the right corner of the end zone. LU never threatened again as UCO finished the scoring with three Gulikers field goals. The Lions outgained the Bronchos 392 yards to 383 but were flagged 17 times for 145 yards and lost four turnovers. The two teams punted the ball only four times.

Professor goes to 'politica extremes' By Cynthia Chung Staff Writer
T
he visage of terrorism is becoming a familiar face to us.
We see it in the horror-stricken countenances of its victims and the loved ones they leave behind. We see it in the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing, the World Trade Center blast, the Atlanta Olympics explosion, the Unabomber attacks and the suspected terrorist act behind TWA 800. Now, more than ever, the issue of terrorism and its perpetrators is on the agenda of the media, academia and politicians. Dr. John George, UCO professor of political science, is a recognized expert in political extremist movements. After the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Building, George was called to testify before Congress about his knowledge of militia groups. George has spent 30 years studying political extremism and has co-authored six books, two of which are on groups
99 I think we have to punish unlawful actions, not obnoxious words. —Dr. John George professor of political science straddling the fringe. His latest book, "American Extremists," was penned jointly with Kansas-based author Laird Wilcox. George will be giving a lecture based on the book at a local library tonight. The book is available at the UCO Bookstore for $18.95. The manuscript is an effort that spanned more than three years of painstaking research and interviews. George and Wilcox put it together by mail and telephone, with occasional visits
to one another. Hours were spent pouring through extremist literature and scholarly works. "We read their papers. We read Communist papers and Nazi papers and John Birch papers and their magazines...and we talked to them," George said. "We could have just told a bunch of war stories, but we didn't want to do that," he said. George said being objective about political extremism comes naturally to him after so many years of practice. • "Bias has nothing to do with being fair. Everyone is biased...I think extremists are wrong almost all the time, but that doesn't make me want to treat them
unfairly. "I think we have to punish unlawful actions, not obnoxious words." George said he believes the best rebuttal to obnoxious speeches is more speech. "Answer them, not stop them." The lecture begins at 7 p.m. tonight at the Norman Public Library, 225 N Webster. For more information, call the library at 321-1481, Ext. 120, or George at 3412980, Ext. 5273.
Career Day introduces Theater majors gain students to employees department, more courses By Joanna Owen-Clouston Staff Writer
Business students wanting to talk to perspective employers can have the chance at the 1996 Career Day. The event, sponsored by the College of Business Administration will be held on the third and fourth floor of the University Center Oct. 9 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. More than 50 corporations and government agencies are expected to attend the event. Beverly Frickel, chairman of the faculty committee said the event is held to help students with career choices. Frickel said career day is useful to all students no matter what classification they are. The seniors benefit by making contacts that can make getting a job easier. She said sophomores and juniors benefit the most because they can find out what the companies are looking for and the best classes to take to get the job. Freshman thinking about pursuing a business degree are encouraged to come by so they can see if business is what they are really interested in. A breakfast is scheduled for 8 a.m. in the University Center Grand Ballroom
with keynote speaker Thomas H. Blundell. Blundell, a graduate of UCO, is the president and CEO of Bipo Inc., an advertising specialty manufacturer. Breakfast tickets are on sale for $4 in Business North. Following the breakfast, students can go to the exhibit booths to speak with professionals from different companies. "Career day is designed to let students know what classes to take for the job they want," Frickel said. Along with the business booths, a booth will be set up for students to have their resumes critiqued. Sessions on how to dress for interviews will be held two or three times during the day. Posters at the fair will give times of the sessions, she said. Frickel sginiu'dents should dress professionally because some of the firms and organizations may be looking for prospective employees. Those interested in leaving a resume with a company can go to the placement office for a packet on resume writing. Evaluation forms will be available to students to give comments and ideas of what they would like to see in next year's event.
Seventy-three theatrical majors now have a theatre department instead of an option under communications. The transformation has taken eight years. Seven students had oral communications, theater arts as a major when Dr. Roberta Sloan, associate professor of oral communications and chairperson of the theatre department, came in 1988. A proposal was approved by the Board of Regents of Oklahoma College in July. The Oklahoma State Regents of Higher Education approved the plan Sept. 6. "This way, we may have more courses for our major," said Alison Crane, a junior majoring in theatre. "President Nigh was very instrumental in getting this done," said Sloan. The next step is to get a separate degree, said Sloan. The degree still appears as oral communications-theatre. Many UCO theatre majors have gone on to professional schools or prestigious fine arts schools, said Sloan. Ginny Godfrey, a graduate of UCO, is a regular on Saved by the Bell; appeared on Days of Our Lives; and has had appearences in several movies and did a national promotion for NBC. —By Telannia Hytche Staff Writer
TIDBITS A paneldiscussion on tenure will be held from 2-4 p.m. today in Room 102 of the Education Building. Guests who will speak are: Mike Brown, president of the Board of Regents; Dr. Clyde Jacob, vice president for academic affairs; and Dr. Linda Leavell, state president of American Association of University Professors. The discussion is sponsored by AAUP and The Vista.

Going lunar over mooncakes By Cynthia Chung Staff Writer In the blue, blue sky A pearly-white boat sits And on the boat there is a tree Around which plays a white rabbit
(translated from a Chinese children's song) Children in Southeast Asia chant this ditty about the crescent moonâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; "pearly white boat"â&#x20AC;&#x201D;in their singalongs, one of many simple, folksy songs that make up the refrain of their childhood. Strains of the song might have been echoed more earnestly last weekend as Chinese all over the world celebrated the Mooncake Festival on Sept. 27. The celebration, which falls on the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar, is also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, said Dr. Li Xiao-Bing, assistant professor of history and geography at UCO. Li likens the Mooncake Festival to a Chinese version of Thanksgiving, where families get together for a much-anticipated reunion. "It's the second most important (occasion) after the Chinese New Year for the family," he said. It wasn't until the Sung Dynasty, (from 960-1279 A.D.) however, that
the Mooncake Fekival was officially recognized as a holiday for the working class. The reigning emperor began offering up prayers in worship to the moon, asking for better harvests or thanking for a good one, Li said. Another version of the story has it that slips of paper calling for a revolution were placed in the mooncakes, round pastries filled with sweet bean paste. The oppressed Han people, smarting under restrictions imposed by the Mongolian regime, used the mooncakes as their main source of communication in planning the rebellion. The legend behind the mooncake fete revolves around Empress Chang-Er, her husband Emperor Hou-Yi and the coveted elixir of everlasting life. Hou-Yi was a good man in his pre-emperor days. He earned the adulation and love of the Chinese people by saving them from the sweltering heat of 10 scorching suns. An expert archer, Hou-Yi aimed his arrows to the sky and shot down nine suns, leaving one to provide sustenance for the earth. Hou-Yi's accomplishment was heralded far and wide, and he was made emperor. Power corrupts, and Hou-Yi was not immune to its influence. He

became wicked and vile, running a dynasty mired in conspiracy and steeped in connivance. Amid the skullduggery and hoodwinking, Hou-Yi nursed a desire for eternal life. Chang-Er saw the man her husband had become, and realized the people would be in dire straits if Hou-Yi found a way to live forever. So when the king's men brought before their overjoyed ruler two magical pills of immortality discovered in the nether ends of the world, Chang-Er knew what she had to do. She seized the pills and swallowed them. She began to feel light on her feet; so light, in fact, as to defy gravity. "What have you done!" screamed the emperor as he tried to grab his wife. She floated effortlessly past his grasp and toward the moon. According to Chinese myth, Chang-Er now resides there with a white rabbit and Wu Gang, a frustrated deity who cuts down the gui hua tree only to have it grow back out again. Wu Gang had offended a more powerful god and was sent to the moon as punishment. He was told that he would get to leave as soon as he leveled the tree. -

Group explores addiction, recovery By Judy Simpson Staff Writer
T
he tall 30-something woman sat in the circle of people and announced, " My name is Vicky and I'm a sex and love addict." The group said in unison, "Hi, Vicky." She told them about her failures and triumphs during the week with her addiction. She then announced, "I haven't had a one-night stand or a relationship in a year." The group applauded and nodded with approval as if they were attending a child's first piano recital. At a meeting for Love and Sex Addicts Anonymous, people from all walks of life gather weekly for support and to discuss their struggles with an addiction as strong and real as any chemical dependency.
