Dean forbids campus anti-apartheid rally By Shannon Blockcolski An anti-apartheid rally scheduled for Friday morning did not occur because of lack of planning, according to Dudley Ryan, dean of students. Yet Renard Aybar, a student who originated the idea of the rally, said, "Ryan said as individual students we could not gather on campus with or without a sponsor unless we were a specific campus senate approved organization," Aybar said. "Part of the problem was that they came to me last Monday wanting to hold the rally on Friday. They needed to schedule a speaker, and it takes at least two weeks notice to do that," Ryan said. Abyar wanted to hold the rally on Friday, he said, because it was the National Protest Day for South African Divestment Sanctions. "We were going to protest with

picket signs and a speaker, Opio Tourie, chairman of the Oklahoma Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression," Abyar said. "We strongly disapprove of the amount of stocks the CSU Foundation has in companies with holdings in South Africa." According to Merril Lynch Reality and Skip Wagnon, director of the alumni association and the CSU Foundation, as of Friday the Foundation owned $46,505.02 worth of shares in Borden, Inc., General Motors Corporation, Exxon, Westinghouse and Xerox. "All of these companies have holdings in South Africa," Aybar said. According to Aybar, he first approached the Afro-American Student Union about the rally, and went with AASU president Sherill Sims to talk to Ryan. "Dean Ryan said it would be fine to have a rally if we had spon-

sor consent, but due to miscommunication, the sponsor, Lamona Evans, did not have enough information to say whether she could sponsor us or not," Aybar said. Aybar then contacted John George, political science professor, about sponsoring the rally. George said he would, and Aybar decided to move the proposed rally from Thatcher Lake to 2nd Street below the CSU marquee. "The second time I approached Ryan, he first said we could not gather as individual students. He then said even if we were an organization, we could only gather on Thatcher Lake or in a classroom," Aybar said. "Any other location was out of the question." Ryan responded, "There is no way we could approve something like that in that location because of the traffic hazard. If anything happened it would be the university's fault."

Aybar said after Ryan denied the students the permission to assemble, he contacted the City of Edmond about using the sidewalk in front of the university. "The person I spoke with said he would call me back. When he did, he said I would have to work it out with the university," Aybar said. Curtis Nunley, another student involved with the planning of the rally, said Ryan told him the rally could not take place in front of the university because it would "obstruct traffic." "He also said he didn't want the public to think the opinion of the people rallying was the opinion of the whole university," Nunley said. Both Abyar and Nunley said they felt Ryan's decision about the rally violated the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States, which states "Congress shall make no law ...

abridging the freedom of speech; or of the press; or the right of the people to peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." "A group of individuals can gather in certain locations on campus, depending on what the goals are. Yet we cannot disturb them unless we receive complaints about their actions," Ryan said. "We've done a lot of things that I personally don't agree with, but we just want to be sure everyone has the same opportunity to express their opinions." Abyar said Ryan provided him with some alternatives, such as going through the Student Association or approaching the CSU Foundation directly. "I think he defeated our purposes. His alternative routes were too subtle and he wanted us to keep this quiet. We will definately have a rally, this is a challenge now," he added.

Opinion Page

Support CSU rock station By Kim Voynar Associate Editor Much has been said lately about KCSC, CSU's classical radio station. The conflict began with a survey published in the Vista on Oct. 2 regarding KCSC's format. Five of the six students polled said they would listen to KCSC if it would change to a rock or top-forty format. However, none of the students polled indicated a willingness to financially support KCSC should its format change. The majority of KCSC listeners are not college students, and therefore are able to support the station, which thrives on donations. I cannot help but wonder if any of the six students polled have ever heard of KBLZ, CSU's cable rock radio station which has been taken off the air. KBLZ was destroyed by a fire in 1983 and went back on the air that July. The staff was waiting to file a 1000 watt license, and the station would have broadcast to CSU and a one or two mile radius outside campus. According to Tom Clare, former KBLZ program director, the station was named one of the top ten college stations in Rock Poll magazine. If the students polled and others like them truly do not listen to KCSC only because of its format, perhaps they would be willing to support a campus station that catered to their taste. I suggest those students join together and petition the administration to get KBLZ back on the air. It is a shame that a program which provided experience to broadcasting majors and offered a format catering to the desires of "many" students at CSU was taken off the air because of a budget crunch.

Guest Commentary

Reagan blunders Daniloff incident By John Buttry

Former Student Association President American journalist Nicholas Daniloff is now home, but so is alleged Soviet spy Gennadiy Zakharov. From the beginning of this fiasco, the Reagan Administration said no swap would occur, but this proved to be untrue. The Administration made a debacle of the entire incident. The handling of this case put on hold the notion that "America is back and standing tall." Instead, it has cast the President in a Carteresque light, costing his administration its reputation as the restorer of national selfrespect, while costing Gorbachev nothing. "Gorbachev's treatment of Daniloff is a thuggish act by a thug, but it is

hardly a blunder," said conservative columnist George Will. After all, Gorbachev called Reagan a liar (for all practical purposes) by publicly proclaiming Daniloff a spy after Reagan personally insisted that was not true. Moreover, Gorbachev still received (1) Zakharov, and (2) a summit. Reagan, on the other hand, received (1) an innocent Daniloff, and (2) the scorn and contempt of the Soviet Union. Reagan insisted, however, that "We didn't give in." What would you call it? The day that Daniloff was arrested (read: framed), the United States should have expelled all Soviet journalists from this country, to be followed daily by Soviet consuls, UN workers, Aeroflot flights, etc., until he was freed. Furthermore, all talk of a

summit should have been immediately suspended. As we know, this was not the case. The United States did not retaliate; rather, it gave in, regardless of the official line. To justify U.S. (in)action, an Administration official said, "The bear when cornered is ferocious." I see. It sounds like something Carter would have said. In fact, it so closely resembles the Carter mentality, I thought I could almost hear "human rights" being whispered in the background. If this is the same Reagan who invaded Grenada and bombed Libya, why does the sound of helicopters crashing in the desert keep haunting me?

Letters

Student's view on drug testing disputed To the editor:

It is not paradoxical to me at all that Rick Garcia has taken an obstinate stand against President Reagan's National Crusade against drugs. Through precedence, Rick Garcia has and continues to reveal this hatred and animosity towards any attempt of the United States government to act parternalistically for this nation. Mr. Garcia seems to believe that federal workers, under the influence of drugs, should be protected from any inquiry from the institution that employs them. The basic answer to this is, if you don't use drugs, then you have nothing to worry about. Federally employed workers should be liable under federal rules and regulations for our government's sake.

Rick Garcia seems to be against the idea of imposing the death penalty for certain drug related crimes. I wonder how Mr. Garcia would feel if, for example, his sister or daughter or someone close to him were laying in a coma because of a drug overdose brought about by a pusher peddling his wares. I wonder if Mr. Garcia would be crying for the pusher's constitutional rights. I do agree that emphasis needs to be placed on rehabilitation and educational programs. This is a positive step, alone will not solve the problem. The concern should be paramountly focused on the pusher first. The the damage the pusher has done should try to be repaired. Those preyed upon need the rehabilitation programs, but

those that deal the trash need to be met head on, and hard. When people began to use the Bill of Rights as a reckless "slip 'n slide" for every Tom, Dick and Harry desire that emerged, I get infuriated when imagining what will precipitate from these demented wants that wish to run rampant without check. I don't think the founding fathers forsaw the Bill of Rights as a protector of drug trade and mental genocide. But alas, it never fails that when something productive is initiated in this nation, reactionary or public-distorting cries come out of the woodwork in endless tirades that acknowledges repetitiously the same disdainful attitude: pessimism will prevail.

News: World, state and local Summit ends in dispute A dispute over the testing of the American Star Wars technology ended the summit between President Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev Sunday. The disagreement revolved around the Soviets' insisting that research on the antimissile system can be confined to labortory work. Gorbachev said it was not right for the United States to test space weapons outside the laboratory. He said he felt only a madman would accept it. The two leaders did agree to cut long-range missile and bomber arsenals in half and to eliminate all but 100 medium-range missiles on each, including those in Europe.

Hundreds die in quake El Salvador President Jose Napoleon Duarte announced Sunday that the death toll from a recent earthquake has risen to 890, and some areas have not been searched. He announced that 10,000 were injured and 150,000 left homeless. Americans who can do so are urged to lend aid to the victims by contacting the Red Cross. Salvadorans in the United States who may have relatives in El Salvador should contact the Salvadoran Embassy. The quake registered on the Richter scale at 5.4.

Panhandle sees snow Those living in the Panhandle and the northwest corner of the state received the first signs of snow over the weekend. The wife of a Gage police officer said the snow lasted about 45 minutes but it did not stick. A forecastor said a cold high pressure system over Kansas blew the northerly winds into Oklahoma, causing temperatures to stay below 50 degrees. The forecast for the rest of the week is sunny, mild days and fair, cool nights. The temperature should reach the 70's by Friday.

Readers' forum

Dorm debate still continues To the editor: This letter is in response to Shannon Blockcolski's commentary on dorm rules. Ms. Blockcolski stated, "One aspect of campus life which brings back memories of high school is the visitation and curfew rules at the residence halls." First I would like to point out that there is no curfew at the residence halls. Yes, the outside doors are locked at 2 a.m., but that doesn't mean you must be in by 2 a.m. You simply have to stop by the office on your way out. It only takes about one or two minutes to check out an overnight key, which allows you to come in anytime you want. As far as locking the doors at 2

a.m., they lock the doors for the protection of the girls inside. People are attacked and robbed every day in our society. Locking the doors is one way to help cut down the chances of this happening in the dorm. Guys come from all over Oklahoma City, Langston and various other places to hang around West Hall. They may not know anyone at West Hall, but they just hang around and watch the girls come and go. Ms. Blockcolski stated that the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University do not lock their outside door. Most of the dorms at OU and OSU use a suite system, where two rooms share a bathroom between them. We do not have this system. Our

Slime flows in L.A. About 20 residents of Los Angeles were evacuated from their homes when close to 500 gallons of brown slime flowed into a storm drain. Residents stayed out of their homes until officials determined it was only lard. Fire department spokesman Greg Acevedo said it was deliberately dumped by a truck. Street maintenance workers flushed the residue down the drain.

Kidnappers identified The kidnappers of three American hostages in Beirut have been identified as the cousins of a prisoner being held by the Kuwait government. In an Oct. 20 issue of Newsweek magazine, the kidnappers have demanded the release of 17 prisoners. Unidentified intelligence sources indicate that the kidnappers might settle for the freedom of three Lebanese Shiite Moslems, including their cousin. The magazine claimed their sources as intelligence and diplomatic sources and the families of the hostages. The cousin of the kidnappers has been identified as Mustafa Yousef, a bomb maker.

Auto theft #1 crime Tulsa police officials indicate that the number of automobile thefts have reached an all time high, with more than $2 million stolen each month. Thefts in Oklahoma City also show an increase, they said. John Belzer, acting public information officer for the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, said auto theft is the state's fastest growing crime. Low risk and high profits are two reasons for the growing number in thefts, an investigator said. Most cars are taken to illegal chop shops where they are disassembled and parts are sold. Other stolen autos are taken to swing shops where the parts are interchanged so the vehicle can't be identified.

girls must walk down the hall to the restroom. The doors also are locked to protect the university. At some university, I don't remember where, a man walked into a girl's dorm through an unlocked door and attacked a girl. The girl sued the university and won. The university was found liable because they had not taken the precaution of locking the doors.

Desk makes student lose concentration To the editor: I believe colleges should provide students with adult/sized desks. When I sit in the child/sized desks provided by this university, I tend to flash back to a child's mentality with pre/adolescent fears. I have to make a decision whether to follow the instructor's course of lecture in my book, or to take notes in my notebook, because of the small size of the desk. My legs sometimes go to sleep due to the contour, rather lack of contour, of the seats. Worst of all, it is practically impossible to sleep in these desks! Kevin Hunter

Local organizations offer reading classes for functionally illiterate By Sue Starkey

Student Writer One out of every four adults in Oklahoma cannot read this story because they are functionally illiterate, according to an Oklahoma City library plannine, needs survey. Illiterates are often victimized by a stigma resulting from a society that in the past has labeled people who cannot read as "dumb." Yet according to the Business Council for Effective Literacy (BCEL), functionally illiterate adults have risen to positions such as computer company executive and chairman of a bank before their basic skills deficiencies were discovered. Jonathon Kozol, author of "Illiterate America," estimates that the $275 million funneled into literacy programs by local, state and national governments only reaches about five percent of all those in need of basic literacy skills. The Oklahoma City Literacy Council is an individuallyoriented program which was organized in 1966. A non-profit group made up almost altogether

of volunteers and supported by donations of time and money from individuals, organizations and corporations, the Council helps adult illiterates through a one-on-one tutoring program, "Each One Teach One." Tutor training workshops cosponsored by the Council and the Metropolitan Library System are conducted monthly at different locations in the Oklahoma City area. The ten-hour workshop held in three, three and one-half hour sessions is free. Books needed to tutor cost $11. At the end of the workshop tutors choose a student from a list of persons who have asked for help. At least one CSU employee, William Alters, is involved in tutoring. A chemistry associate who does purchasing and laboratory management for the Chemistry Department, he completed the Literacy Council's training almost three years ago and since has taught four persons to read. According to Alters, it is amazing how many functionally illiterate adults have high school diplomas.

Debate squad receives honors at tournaments From Staff Reports Members of the CSU debate squad brought home honors from tournaments at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., and Oklahoma Christian College in Edmond, held the weekend of Oct. 2-5. "We were exceptionally pleased with our accomplishments this weekend," said Doug Duke, director of forensics. "Vanderbilt is a highly ranked and exceptionally competitive national tournament and we proved we could compete with the 'big boys.' OCC gave us a boost of confidence and showed we remain a strong and worthy competitor in our own district." The team of John McHale, junior from Nowata and Jessica Grassman, junior from Oklahoma City, captured first place in the open CEDA division of the OCC tournament. They finished the preliminary competition with a 5-1 record and advanced into elimination rounds. The team defeated Southern Baptist University in octafinals, Trinity University in quarterfinals and Cameron College in semifinals. McHale and Grassman then advanced to the final round of competition where they defeated William Jewell University. Kim Perry, junior from Oklahoma City and Gilbert DeSilva, freshman from Singapore, finished the first day of open CEDA competition with a 4-2 record, but failed to advance into elimination competition. In junior NDT, Charley Mallard, freshman from Guymon and Todd Newman, freshman

from Miami, finished the first six preliminary rounds with a 3-3 record. They then advanced to the elimination rounds where they defeated Baylor University in the semifinals. Newman and Mallard were defeated by Washburn, Kan. in finals and finished second in the junior NDT division of the OCC tournament. Newman also received the second place speaker award in that division. Sandy Carroll, sophomore from Edmond, received the sixth place speaker award in the varsity CEDA division of the Vanderbilt University tournament out of 116 competitors. Carroll and her colleague Al Madrid, junior from Edmond, finished the first eight rounds of competition with a 6-2 record and advanced to elimination rounds. Carroll and Madrid were one of the sixteen teams to advance out of the original 58 teams. They defeated Miami, Fla. in octafinals but were defeated by South Carolina University in quarterfinals to finish fifth overall. "I am extremely pleased with Carroll's performance," said Duke. "The Vanderbilt tournament is tough national competition." In the NDT division at Vanderbilt Tammy Fleming, junior from Oklahoma City, and Bret McLendon, sophomore from Emporia, Kan., finished preliminary competition with a 3-5 record. Drew Duke, sophomore from Edmond and Craig Tomlin, sophomore from Tulsa, finished the first eight rounds of competition with a 4-4 record.

"The greatest disservice that is being done to the community and to these people is to pass them through high school without being able to read," he said. Another Oklahoma City organization that is working with adult illiterates is the Opportunities Industrialization Center (OIC). A community-based program geared more to meeting the needs of specific ethnic and cultural groups and their common concerns, OIC primarily serves the economically and socially disadvantaged. Basic skills are taught in the context of practical social problems facing the participants. Beginning next month, OIC will begin teaching reading skills with computer-aided instruction (CAI). According to BCEL, the most dramatic results from CAI have been with adult illiterates who associate learning with unpleasant, childlike overtones and failures in traditional school experiences. Both Jim Wallace, executive director of OIC, and Bob Files, manager of the Comprehensive Competencies Program (CCP) at the Learning Opportunity Center, are excited about the new computer program. Wallace, an accountant, is impressed by the statistics from other centers in the nation that have already implemented the program. "There are proven results of at least one year's progress in math, reading or language skills per each 100 hours of instruction," said Wallace. "Of this 100 hours, about 20 are actually spent using the computer. In contrast, it takes about 150 hours to achieve the same results in a conventional adult basic education class." A former public school teacher, Bob Files is disquieted by the bad affects of illiteracy on both the in-

dividual and the community. But he is enthusiastic about the distinctly personal attention the computer will give students by letting them begin at their level of learning and then progress at their own self-pace. "I think of all people as educable," he said. "It's just a matter of reaching them at their personal level of skill." The CCP's objective is to provide adult basic skills and general education development so that a person will be able to locate a job according to his or her ability and initiative. At first, the CCP will be open only to the economically disadvantaged based on income, family size, employment status and to others who can significantly benefit from the program. "But we will also be reaching out to all of those in need," said Wallace. "We hope to eventually open the program on a fee for service basis." Wallace is optimistic that in the future local employers will send adult employees who are in need of basic skills to OIC for computer-assisted instruction. Employers and others who are interested in the OIC program may obtain information by calling 235-2651. The Oklahoma City Literacy Council and OIC are just two of several non-profit organizations in the Oklahoma City area working hard to eradicate illiteracy. But their efforts may not be enough. Author Jonathon Kozol believes that by the year 2000 two out of three Americans will be functionally illiterate unless a serious financial committment is made. If Kozol is right, the majority of Oklahomans won't be able to read the newspapers heralding the new century.

Library staff attend seminar to seek research technology By Audrey Burge

Student Writer Central State librarians were among those librarians from across the state who attended the administrative and academic leadership seminar, "The Expanding Knowledge Base", at the University of Oklahoma last week. The purpose of the seminar was to discuss problems and the future of library print resources, nonprint resources, personnel resources, physical resources and the Compact Disc Read Only Memory (C.D. ROM). Dr. John Lolley, director of

library services, lead one of the five small group sessions on critical issues entitled, "Collection Development and Design Chair: (Self Sufficiency versus On Demand resources, where do we stand?)." C.D. ROM is an electronic means of getting information, Lolley said. Students will be able to sit down at a machine and type the name of any subject onto the keyboard. The disc will then search every encylopedia and other reference books for that particular subject. Within seconds, a listing of all sources found on that subject will be

displayed on the screen, he added. "This will be beneficial to cornmuter students. These students often work and have families and don't have a lot of time to do extensive research," Lolley said. Linda Jones, director of the CSU News Bureau, said the average number of commuters is 10,000. The CSU library has one C.D. ROM on order to be used in their technological area. Lolley said it will be two or three years before the library will be able to afford more. Funding of this will come from university funds, he said.

Second half dooms Bronchos in loss VISTA Sports By John Helsley

Sports Editor

CSU quarterback Glynn Walker shows the referee the ball after scoring the games first touchdown against Sam Houston State Saturday.

Led by stiff defensive play in the second half, Sam Houston State rallied for a 27-17 win over CSU Saturday in Huntsville, Texas. CSU scored the first two times they had the ball and led. 17-14 at the half, but the Bronchos were held to only one first down and 69 yards of offense after intermission. Part of the reason for the offensive troubles was a shoulder seperation suffered by Broncho quarterback Glynn Walker. He is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game at Eastern Washington. "I was real proud of the team's play," said coach Gary Howard. "We played a bigger, very talented football team and never let down. We made some big plays late in the game, just because we were still playing with intensity and emmotion. "We played against a team with more size, strength and experience and they finally wore us down. We made some mistakes in the kicking game that gave them good field position in the second half and that hurt." The Bronchos took the game's opening kickoff and promptly

drove 80 yards in 11 plays to take a 7-0 lead. Walker capped the impressive march with a five-yard scamper around right end for the score. After the Bearkats missed a 39-yard field goal on their first possession, the Bronchos began another drive which fizzled at the Sam Houston seven. Mark Monroe was called on to kick a 24-yard field goal, and CSU led 10-0. Quarterback Reggie Lewis got the Bearkat offense in gear following the kickoff, directing a 71-yard drive and finally connecting with tight end Ricky Eggleston on a 36-yard TD pass 2:21 into the second quarter. Eggleston caught the ball at the 20, cut back to the middle of the field, broke a tackle at the five and barrelled into the endzone to cut the lead to 10-7. The Bronchos answered right back, going 72 yards on a drive which culminated with a 24-yard Walker to Tony Felton touchdown pass. Felton made a diving catch in the middle of the endzone for his first TD grab of the season and CSU again led by two touchdowns. The Broncho offense was silent after that touchdown, never getting past their own 34-yard line. Walker left with 14:04 left in the game and the offense never recovered. With 4:07 left in the first half, the Bearkats recovered an Eddie Goodlow fumble at the CSU 48-yard line. SHSU took advantage as fullback Ross Klein bolted in for the score from a yard out four plays later and the Broncho lead was cut to 17-14.

A 29-yard kickoff return put the Bearkats in good field position at their own 38-yard line to open the second half. In only four plays, the Bearkats scored and took a 21-14 lead on a 37-yard Lewis to Keith Willis pass play. SHSU added two fourth-period Billy Hayes field goals of 27 and 35 yards to close out the scoring. The loss dropped the Bronchos record to 2-3 and virtually eliminated them from any chance of making the NAIA playoffs. Only the top eight ranked teams in the final NAIA poll make the playoffs.

Broncho net teams throttle opponents By John Helsley The CSU men's tennis team continued their winning ways and the ladies team also won in matches played Oct. 7 at the Broncho courts. Against Oklahoma Baptist University Sept. 19, the Bronchos had to win the final three doubles matches to pull out a 7-5 victory. This time, the Bronchos were at their best in beating the Bison 8-1. Kevin Hill, Stan Swyden, Tim Ritchie and Jack Wilson each avenged losses from that earlier match

"The entire team played some outstanding tennis today," said coach Francis Baxter. "Kevin, Stan, Tim and Jack all lost their singles matches at OBU when we played them two weeks ago. We were not going to let that happen again." Hill defeated Mike Hinkle 6-4, 7-5; Swyden downed Tom Ryder 7-6, 6-3; Ritchie beat Phil Perez 6-3, 6-4 and Wilson rallied to beat Steve Landes 5-7, 6-2, 6-2. Mac Convento dropped the first set against Ted Moore, but came back to win 4-6, 6-2, 7-6.

Kevin Hill rips a two-handed backhand from the baseline in a match against OBU. Hill defeated Mike Hinkle 6-4, 7-5.

The Bronchos suffered their only defeat of the day when freshman Tom Schmidt fell to Eric Lair 4-6, 4-6. CSU swept through the three doubles matches as Phil DesJardins and Swyden downed Perez and Ryder 6-4, 6-2; Rob Autry and Hanif Sheikh beat Hinkle and Moore 6-4, 4-6, 6-2; and Convento and Ritchie defeated Lair and Landes 6-2, 6-4. For the second time this season, the Lady Bronchos easily handled defending District IX Champion Cameron. The lady netters won six straight matches before losing the final doubles match of the day. The 6-1 win coupled with an 8-0 win against the Lady Aggies Sept. 26 gave the Lady Bronchos a sweep against their district rival this fall. Jenny Bautista cruised past Linda Cusik 6-2, 6-0; Kerryn Whittaker drilled Sue Coons 6-1, 6-1; Kathie Swink downed Cathy McCann 6-4, 6-1; Kerry Parker got past Gwen Clark 6-2, 4-6, 6-4; and Connie Long beat Lisa Bledsaw 6-4, 6-2. Bautista and Whittaker teamed to smash Clark and Coons 6-1, 6-0 in No. 1 doubles. The Lady Aggies posted their only victory when Cusik and McCann upended Swink and Shannon Johnson 6-1, 6-1. "This was our second overwhelming defeat this fall of last year's District IX Team Champions," Baxter said. "Everyone seems to be on track and playing with a great deal of confidence." The Lady Bronchos will host the Broncho Women Fall Classic Friday through Sunday at the Broncho courts. Midwestern of Texas, OCU, Cameron and Emporia of Kansas will be in the field. The women's and men's teams will both play Monday at Abilene Christian University.

Sociology chairman relates the value of his experience By Sue Starkey The words "And one man in his time plays many parts," penned by Shakespeare and inscribed in a book co-authored by Dr. Richard P. Rettig, newly-elected chairman of the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice, are perhaps the best way to describe Rettig. Including being a department chairman and author, Rettig also also is a summa cum laude scholar, an ordained minister, a corrections expert and a former convict who spent 15 years in maximum security prisons for theft. Rettig also is a man with a very positive outlook. In his book,

"Manny, A Criminal-Addict's Story," he said of his prison episodes, "Surely my sociological point of view is broader and deeper because of past experience." Rettig began working at CSU five years ago as an adjunct professor while at the same time holding two other jobs, one of which was program administrator for the Department of Human Services (DHS). At the same time he was minister of the First Christian Church at Dover. He has a 14-year history of college teaching, six of which were spent in the Behavioral Science Depart-

ment at Oral Roberts University. As a child, Rettig rebelled when he found out he was adopted, and went to the streets where he learned what he calls the "innovative skills" of crime, he said. As a result of his boyhood experience, Rettig said he is especially interested in working with juvenile offenders and does a lot of work with the media in this area. As department chairman, Rettig said one of his goals is to eventually create a Ph.D. program in criminal justice with the assistance of Dr. Bill Parker, assistant dean of the college of liberal arts and coordinator of the criminal justice program.

Student Writer Next January, while most students are sitting in dull, lifeless classrooms, some will be traveling to exotic countries and meeting people all over the world. Through a program called "Semester at Sea," four hundred college students will travel around the world while attending school on a luxury ship. The S.S. Universe begins its journey every January from Ft. Lauderdale, and every August from Seattle. The cruise docks in countries such as Spain, Turkey, India, Sri Lanka, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Yugoslavia and Russia. The 564 foot ship is identical to a college campus. There are living quarters, classrooms, a library, a dining room, a volleyball/basketball court, an indoor running tract( and a weight room. The ship also includes a student union with a fully stocked bar, a laundry room, a sun deck and a swimming pool. The cruise usually runs into four to five weeks of tropical weather. The ship is at sea for about fifty days of the total one hundred days of the semester. Classes are only in session while the ship is at sea.

Students can take anywhere from 12 to 15 transferable credit hours in courses such as business, English, music, sociology and science. When the ship is in port, students are free to travel on their own or with tours set up by Semester at Sea's field office. The cost of the trip, including room, board and tuition usually runs between $8,000 and $10,000. Also included in this fee, however, is a chance to see the world and discover how other people live. If $10,000 seems a little steep, as it may be for the average college student, there are work study programs which cover half of the tuition costs. Work study students have jobs on board the ship that range from working in the administration offices and the library to running video equipment for the ship's television monitors and movies. Semester at Sea is based through the University of Pittsburg. The only requirements for students is a 2.5 grade point average, and an essay on why the student wants to go. There are spaces available for the spring 1987 voyage, and interested students should call for information at 1-800-854-0195.
