Students hold rally on campus

squad of at least 25 UCO and Edmond Santa Fe High School students turned out Oct. 22 to cheer for President Bill Clinton at a rally outside the Financial Aid Office. Members of the UCO chapter of Young Democrats said Bob Dole deserved an "F" for his education platform. One sign read "Financial Aid Office CLOSED Due to Dole Presidency," and other

students held oversized report cards for the candidates. The sign was in reference to Republican candidate Bob Dole's vote for the Republican budget resolution which would have cut student loans by $10 billion over seven years, said Brent Wilcox, UCO senior general education major. —By Mary Reinauer/ Staff Writer

fallen angels

p

eople are people—no matter where you go. We're all driven by wants and desires, paralyzed by fears and overjoyed by accomplishments. This commonalty of humans is brilliantly portrayed in Angels in America, currently playing in Mitchell Hall. Some may argue that this is a "gay play" and doesn't apply to the rest of us, but the themes are universal and we all have to deal with them. Isn't it ironic that the last thing we'd ask a straight person about is their sexual practices but we use sexual preferences to classify an entire group of people as gay? There's so much more to every one of us than simply who we sleep with. Yet an entire section of society is discounted because of who they have chosen as a mate. If we arbitrarily classify people without letting ourselves get to know them, then we are cheating ourselves. The posters for "Angels"- hanging in the Communications Building were vandalized last week. Someone had scratched out "Angels" and replaced it with "fags." A narrow-minded attitude. If you can see beyond the shock of two men kissing, the moral conundrums presented in the play are universal whether you are gay or straight. We all need to realize the energy we spend on hating someone just because they are different doesn't do anyone any good. 41

Scholarships to be awarded to outstanding students By Tamara Schones Student Writer

U

CO will be awarding scholarships through the President's Leadership Council for students who have demonstrated outstanding leadership abilities. The President's Leadership Scholarship is a full tuition scholarship

(approximately $1,600) which will cover the tuition costs for up to 18 credit hours for 2 semesters. "This is a chance for us to say, 'You're doing an incredible job on campus'," said Susan Thompson, director of student activities. Scholarships are awarded to students who have made outstanding contributions to the campus and are actively involved in student organizations and campus

Spring class schedule undergoes changes The UCO Spring 1997 Class Schedule directories are now available and, according to the office of academic affairs, easier to use. The catalog has undergone changes designed to help students locate the courses offered for the spring semester. In prior years, courses were sorted by college and department, but the new catalog lists all courses alphabetically by course prefix. For example: ACCTG, ART, BLAW. Accounting class listings are now followed by art class listings, while in previous catalogs accounting was followed by decision sciences. "The change was kicked around for couple of years," said Dr. Albert Lynd of the Academic Affairs Office. "Students didn't always know what college a particular course was in." The catalog will also provide information about each course such as the college it is offered in, building, department and phone extension. According to Paul Patrick, associate registrar, a survey of deans, department chairs, advisors and students was conducted in September to determine the feasibility of the changes. Of those surveyed, more than 65 percent favored the new format, he said. Students will be given a chance to critique the directory changes. Upon enrolling, each student will be asked to fill out a short survey responding to the new course directory. —By Lisa Tatum Staff Writer

Angels in America: Exploring life's issues Spotlight on Prior and Louis By Telannia Hytche Staff Writer Four days ago, Angels in America Part One: Millennium Approaches appeared in Mitchell Hall. Tomorrow night at 8 p.m, the cast will perform

Part Two: Perestroika. The first story described the controversy of the play and how it came to UCO. This is Part Two in a three-part series on Angels in America.

Allen Brawner as Prior Walter ho do you turn to if you have AIDS? In Angels in America, Prior Walter had no one to turn to for understanding or help. Allen Brawner plays Walter, a gay male who has contracted the HIV virus. After testing negative, Walter's

lover, Louis Aronson, deserts him. The play is set in the early 1980s when little was known about AIDS. With his body leaning forward and arm draping over the chair, Brawner said, "This play was a big seller for me to come to this university." In a delicate tone and with soft brown eyes, Brawner said that he has lost friends to AIDS and likes the way Tony Kushner deals with the issue. "It is an honor for me to do this play," said Brawner. Although Brawner can identify with the emotions of his character, he said that playing Walter is challenging. "We are completely opposite people," said Brawner. "He (Walter) is feminine and a former drag queen— I' m not." Even though the play addresses homosexuality specifically, Kushner shows how the events and emotions

that occur between Walter and Aronson can happen in any relationship. Anger, hostility, frustration and sadness are some of the emotions his character experiences during the play, said Brawner. Throughout the play Walter progresses from HIV to full-blown AIDS. Walter develops Kaposi's Sarcoma, a cancer common- among AIDS patients. During each scene, Brawner's creamy colored skin becomes increasingly pale and covered with lesions. "Each time I go back stage, they put more and more lesions on my body," said Brawner. Brawner describes the scene where he is being examined by the doctor. V See ANGELS, Page 5

But in the end it was the leadership and management experience I got through Army ROTC that won them over. Army ROTC taught me responsibility, discipline and leadership. Those are things you just can't learn from a textbook. don't know where I'd be right now if I hadn't enrolled in Army ROTC, but I do know one thing for sure ...I wouldn't be here.

"I am supposed to be completely naked but I am undressed down to boxing shorts," said Brawner. The audience sees all the lesions on my body, he said. The scene gives an up-closeand-personal insight into what AIDS patients experience. At the end of Part One, it appears that Walter dies. Instead, the play takes a twist and Walter is chosen to be a prophet. His experience as a prophet occurs in Part Two. Brawner is currently a sophomore majoring in theatre arts. He plans to enter a master's program in either Chicago or California. Brawner transferred from The University of Tulsa where he majored in visual art last spring. Although Brawner's experience in college theatre is short, his acting experience is varied. Everybody and Their Dog is a theatrical group that Brawner cofounded five years ago. The name represents the collective leadership the group adopted.

There are six performers and numerous substitutes. Everybody and Their Dog has performed at colleges, coffee houses, and Carpenter Square Theatre in Oklahoma City. The performance consists of two scripted pieces and audience participation pieces for a twohour performance. Brawner worked for five years at the Oklahoma Children's Theatre. John Edward Foster (Jet) as Louis Ironson What do you do when you find out your mate has AIDS? Louis Ironson, a character in Angels in America, leaves his mate after testing negative to the HIV virus. "Louis runs away from a lot of things," said John Edward Foster, the person who plays Ironson, a gay Jew governed by his fears. Ironson has a strong interest in politics but doesn't take a stand on any position. He uses extensive words to make a point but contradicts himself. "I love the character of Louis

because he is a complex character," said Foster. As he ran his fingers through his light brown curly hair, Foster said he can enter the character of Louis in just one line. "You can't read the lines without the character coming out of you," said Foster. Tony Kushner wrote the play so that each character's lines fit only their character. Prior lines are only what Prior would say and the same goes for Louis, said Foster. Foster said that he identifies with his character because they are both neurotic and do not take a strong stand on issues. "He is an extreme version of me," said Foster. Ironson and Foster differ in that Ironson is strong on politics and he is obsessed with his fears. Foster's character develops through a series of events. Ironson leaves Prior Walter, has a series of relationships, then returns to Walter. It is during the series of relationships that the depth and reason for Ironson's fear unfold.

One of the major scenes is when Ironson is sodomized behind a bush. Foster said this is one of the most important scenes for his character because it shows how Ironson feels guilty for not contracting the disease like his lover. "It's like he is punishing himself," said Foster. Ironson gets involved with a married, Republican lawyer, Mormon man. Joe Pitt, another main character of Angels, leaves his wife, Harper Pitt, to be with Ironson. Foster returned to the theatre department because of this play. He had various majors in the past. Before transferring to UCO, Foster attended Oklahoma City University. For five months, he lived in California to get away from theatre but played the -part of the miller in Rumpelstilskin in Laguana

tilas For more information call Suze e at 348-8767

Beach. His first role was Ebstein in Biloxi Blues.

Foster plans to get his Master's in theatre in a bigger city and work in the regional area. Part three of this series will discuss the relationship of Joe and Harper Pitt.

Public information...

CAR drives journalism to information super highway By Jason A. Hill

Student Writer

omputer Assisted Reporting (CAR) is rapidly taking the field of journalism into the far reaches of the information age. CAR is the most recent trend in investigative reporting where government documents and public information stored electronically are accessible to the media. In the past, the federal and state governments had all public records in paper files. They then stored records on nine-track computer tape. Now the storage method of choice is CD-ROM and Internet home pages. Griff Palmer, database editor for The Daily Oklahoman, spoke to the UCO chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists about CAR and the ways he gets information from state agencies for news stories.

Palmer said CAR allows he and other journalists to cross reference data and information, such as expenditures in the general fund of the state legislature, through computer programs. The program contains all transactions for the general fund, the date they occured and codes for how the money was spent. He also uses city databases to follow spending for police vehicle maintenence and the MAPS project. Under the Oklahoma Open Records Act, any public information on computer has to be given in a computer format, eliminating the per-page fee that state agencies charge for access to the information. This allows Palmer to negotiate a price for the information. Palmer said public officials don't like this policy and want to hike up prices for the data because they need the revenue and they consider the data a commercial commodity.

Failed State Bill 691 would have allowed county assessors' offices to charge $4,000 for access to their master file, but Palmer gives credit to state Attorney General Drew Edmondson for preserving low cost access to public information. Edmondson brought the price of voter registration data from $4,000 to $150, said Palmer. Not only do journalists have access to data in public information files, but so do the commercial mailing list vendors. Public information includes important demographic information that companies will pay large sums of money for, said Palmer. He also said that CAR is an invaluable tool for journalism students and more journlism schools should be teaching Computer Assisted Reporting. Palmer is currently working on implementing training programs atThe Oklahoman for staff development and background research using CAR. 0a) Al

Fry bread fundraiser finances FASA powwow By Tracie Fowler

Student Writer

U

CO students got a taste of Native American culture when the First American Student Association held a fry bread sale Thursday. The fund-raiser is for raising money to be used for the Fall Powwow benefit, said FASA President Jennifer Standing. The money will be used to buy and prepare food for at least 400 people. Fry bread is a traditional Indian bread used as part of a

meal and also for Indian Tacos. Fry bread can also be served as a sweet treat, almost like a donut without the icing, but instead dipped into honey. The Fall Powwow will be Nov. 23 in the University Center Ballroom. It is free and open to the public. Raffles and other concessions will be held to raise money for the Spring Powwow which will be held during Indian Heritage Week. For more information, call Jennifer Standing at 341-2980, Ext. 2580.

Late field goal propels Angelo State past UCO SAN ANGELO, Texas — Angelo State (Texas) kicker Chris Meadows booted a 20-yard field goal to give the Rams a 2724 victory over Central Oklahoma and second place in the Lone Star Conference. The two teams battled to a 2424 tie until Meadows' kick with 2;08 left in the game. Jubarko Gaines, who had a 188-yard effort on a career-high 43 attempts, scored a touchdown on a one-yard run with 8:29 left for the third tie in a see-saw contest. No. 19-ranked Angelo and No. 13 UCO entered the matchup tied for second in the conference.

Angelo might have the inside track on an NCAA Division II playoff berth as they improved to 5-2 and 3-1 in the conference before a homecoming crowd of 9,500 spectators. UCO fell to 5-2, 2-2 in the LSC with their second straight loss. The Rams recovered from a 17-14 loss to Abilene Christian (Texas), who beat Angelo on a last-minute field goal. "Obviously it's a disappointing loss," UCO head football coach Gary Howard said. "We made some mistakes that really hurt us, and we just weren't able to overcome them.

Rams head coach Jerry Vandergriff got his 100th career coaching victory with the win, giving him the most coaching football wins in school history. Angelo started the scoring when a busted field goal resulted in a touchdown. Ram punter Bryan Bode, the holder on the field goal team, took a bad snap and rolled out to pass the ball. Tight end Kyle Cooper went to

catch the nine-yard pass for a 7-0 lead, capping an 80-yard, nineplay drive. UCO drove to the Angelo three before Pena was knocked out of the game when he was hit on a passing play. Backup quarterback Sean Morgan tossed a three-yard touchdown to tight end Jett Cornett to knot up the score, and Pena returned to the game on the next possession.

The Rams led 14-10 at halftime after UCO place-kicker Thomas Weaver, who regained his job after losing it to Ronnie Gulikers, nailed a 19-yard field goal as time expired in the half. With the ball at the Angelo two, Pena had to throw the ball out of bounds with three seconds left because UCO had used all of their timeouts.

Mistakes catch up with Bronchos leven years ago Central State, top ,d franked ranked in NAIA, lost to Henderson State (Ark.) 18-15 in the first round of the NAIA football playoffs. The 1985 trip to Arkadelphia, Ark. was Central Oklahoma's last voyage into the postseason. With Saturday's 27-24 loss to Angelo State (Texas), the Bronchos' streak of 11 years staying at home at the end of the season could likely stretch to 12. Making it even more difficult is that Abilene Christian (Texas) also won Saturday, tying Angelo for second in the Lone Star Conference with a 3-1 record. What's happened to UCO during their two-game tailspin, which could prove costly at the end of the season? Saturday's loss must have stung badly. The Rams had luck on their side that night. UCO has hung its hat all season and during Gary Howard's tenure on not making mistakes. They led NCAA Division II in turnover margin with a plus-31 takeaway ratio against their opponents, and this year they are plus-16. Although the Bronchos won the turnover battle by forcing six turnovers and giving away the ball only twice, Angelo capitalized on timely mistakes by UCO. Angelo took the lead early in the fourth quarter when Jubarko Gaines fumbled the ball at our own 18. Angelo's Trevor Blair took the ball and scored with it for a 24-17 advantage.

Then with the score 27-24, UCO had a last-minute drive to attempt a rally. On third down, quarterback Stanley Pena was sacked for the 21st time this season. Psychologically, that can hurt a team to lose because something you're really good at fails you. If that wasn't enough, Angelo's first touchdown was scored on a fluke play. Their field goal holder improvised on a broken play to toss a touchdown pass. The week before against Texas A&M-Kingsville, one Kingsville observer was describing their team to me. He made it sound like the Javelinas were in trouble this season. Maybe they hadn't been playing that well during a 1-2 start or in 40-10 and 35-28 conference victories over Tarleton State (Texas) and Texas A&M-Commerce. But another Kingsville official noted that TAMUK was playing their best football this season against us. Attribute that loss to Kingsville's character, because they started the season by losing to Top 20 teams North Dakota State and three-time defending national champion North Alabama. To bounce back and perform like they did against UCO took real perseverance. I mean, Kingsville probably expected to win both of those early season contests. Dakota entered the season ranked lower than the Javelinas, and not only

did North 'Barna have to come to Kingsville, but the champs were struggling. Instead, North Alabama won 24-7. Another thing working against UCO is that preseason AllAmerica guard Aaron Roberson hasn't been playing much because of illness. He was in and out of the lineup against the Javelinas and didn't play much against the Rams. The plus for UCO is that they could go 8-2 because their final three games are each very winnable. They defeated their final three opponents by a combined score of 119-29 last season. Another plus for UCO's chances is that Abilene and Angelo each have relatively difficult schedules. Angelo finishes the season with Texas A&M-Commerce and Kingsville, the Lone Star's representatives in last year's postseason. Abilene plays Commerce this week and Kingsville the week after that before taking on West Texas A&M. Also, playoff consideration is based on regional rankings, with the top four teams from each region making the postseason.

The Lone Star Conference has been flooding the West Region rankings this year, at one point having four of the top six in the region. Still, finishing second will be the key. Commerce is tied with UCO at 2-2 and will figure heavily in the race. However, the next four teams after Kingsville are more even than they were a year ago. •••

I'm a big Batman fan, but my visit to the Javelina Stadium press box during Fall Break was ridiculous. When I went into the bathroom, the guys in the box warned me to watch out for the bats. Although the bats weren't in

sight, they do live inside the walls at the press box. I even heard them squeaking at me from behind the walls as I went about my business. TAMUK sports information director Fred Nuesch told me the Mexican bats can't be simply killed, although they tried several years ago. Law says that if they want to get rid of the bats, they must transplant them to a different habitat. Nuesch said the bats' refuse was good for fertilizer. The smell gave me a headache. Just call the place the Batcave. •••

"That's lessons in life when your backs up against the wall, and it shows what kind of character you have whether you're willing to stay there and take it or come out and battle and challenge."

UCO awards four faculty members for excellence By Shawn Goudy Student Writer

elebrating its week long salute to education, UCO honored four faculty members with the "President's Partners Excellence in Teaching Award" Oct. 2 at the Oak Tree Country Club in Edmond. The winners were Dr. David Bridge, College of Mathematics and Science; Dr. Katherine Terrell, College of Business Administration; Dr. Gladys Lewis, College of Liberal Arts; and Dr. Roy Rowland, College of Education. Each received a cash award of $ 2,500. Bridge has taught mathematics at UCO since 1992 and "feels honored to be supported by my students and encouraged by my peers," he said. Even though he plans to use the money on self indulgence, he thinks the reassurance from his students is more important than money. Terrell has taught in the accounting department since 1988. "I feel wonderful and rewarded on being selected," she

said. Terrell has two children attending UCO and will use the money to pay tuition. "UCO is ranked in the top 100 for best values in undergradute education. Students get quality for their dollar," Terrell added. Lewis joined the UCO English department in 1991. "I feel humbled by being selected," she said. Lewis always pictured herself as a writer and enjoys preparing for class. "I hope to spend some of the money on something related to research and help students planning on traveling to a conference," she said. Rowland has been with the UCO department of curriculum and instruction since 1981. "It is the greatest honor of any I've received," he said. He has not made any plans for the cash award but hopes to use some of it toward making teaching easier.

Laundry debit cards replace quarters in dorms

/. "Wvf4,frxilefr

tudents who live on campus can now purchase a debit card in place of searching for quarters to do their laundry. The new laundry debit cards are available at the housing counter, Room 206 of the University Center. They can be purchased Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 2-4 p.m. The cards range in increments of $5 to $50 and can be used for the washers and dryers on campus. New machines have been installed in the residence halls and at the Broncho Apartments. Carroll Van Duyn, director of resident housing, said the machine will tell how much credit a person has before doing their laundry, and will give them their card's balance after they have selected the machine.

Satellite sleuths track down interference

Kt.

CSC listeners may have noticed some interference on he station's broadcasts from National Public Radio ecently. That interference sent engineers Larry Iverson and Hal Smith up on the roof of the Communications Building last week to track down the transmissions. The pair used antennas and a spectrum analyzer to test the incoming signals. As Smith rotated the spectrum analyzer receiver, which looks like a bull horn, the tight vertical lines on the tiny green screen jumped and peaked. "These are horizontal transmissions, rather than ones coming from satellites," Smith said. He said the transmissions were from point to point microwave equipment operating in the same frequency as the satellite bands. Many of these microwave transmissions are from cellular phone transmitters. Smith and Iverson aren't sure yet how they'll remedy the problem. "We may put a dish in a different location," Smith said. He explained that most microwave transmissions are "line of sight" signals and they don't go through buildings well. Broadcasts KCSC receives from the NPR satellite include Prairie Home Companion, Adventures in Good Music with Karl Haas and Chicago Symphony. On

Managing Editor

Editorial magazine confuses names in obituary By Jessica Halliburton

Staff Writer

Terry Clark, chairman of the UCO journalism department, didn't know he was pronounced dead until he read about it. Clark found his brief obituary in the Oct. 12 edition of Editor & Publisher, a weekly journal of the newspaper industry. The mixup occurred when the magazine received an obituary Clark sent honoring his long-time friend and mentor, Harry E. Heath Jr., the former director of Oklahoma State University's journalism school.

Jr.

Heath died in August from injuries he received in an auto accident. Clark said Heath's name was prominent in the obit he sent the magazine, but concedes the mixup could have occurred because he included his own name in the story. Clark, 52, said no friends or relatives got frantic, probably because of the difference in universities and in ages. Heath was 77, which is the age given for Clark in the magazine obit. Clark said he had received a number of phone calls—most of them poking a little fun. "I got a lot of comments like, 'Your

recovery has been miraculous,' and 'Oh, it's Halloween, look at the ghost,'" said Clark. "I had to tell my kids, 'No you can't collect on my life insurance."' Clark said he tried to get something out of the situation, but didn't have much success. "I told my boss I was dead and he still wouldn't let me go home," he said. All joking aside, Clark said he felt strange reading it. "They really did Harry a disservice," said Clark. "But a stickler for detail, he would have gotten a kick out of this error."

E&P Senior Editor George Garneau said the magazine would run a correction based on a letter Clark wrote to clear up the mistake. "I don't know how it happened. Apparently the person typing in the obit put someone else's name on it instead of the dead guy's," said Garneau. "What else can I say? Mistakes happen." Clark said he has already used the mistake as an example in his journalism classes to emphasize the importance of accuracy and to offer "a whole new perspective on the term deadline."

Out of control.., Confusion taunts victims of manic depression n the second of a three-part series on mental illness, The Vista reports on one of the most common brain disorders: Manic depressive illness.

I

The ideas and feelings are fast and frequent like shooting stars...Feelings of ease, intensity, power, and euphoria pervade one's marrow. But somewhere, this changes. The fast ideas are far too fast... confusion replaces clarity...you are irritable, angry, frightened, uncontrollable, and enmeshed totally in the blackest caves of the mind.

So begins Dr. Kay Redfield Jamison's description of the nightmare of highs and lows that taunt the mind of someone living with manic-depressive illness, also known as bipolar disorder. In her book, An Unquiet Mind, Jamison, a professor of psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, describes her own struggle with the disease and the affects it has had on her life. More than 3 million people in the United States are afflicted with the brain disorder that is characterized by mood swings usually involving periods of mania and elation alternating with some degree of depression. The disease, which is believed to be the result of a chemical imbalance in the brain, often begins in adolescence and continues throughout life. A major life event may trigger an individual's initial episode of mania or depression. Left untreated, the illness will cycle between the ups and downs and periods of normalcy. The severe highs associated with the manic side of the cycle are characterized by symptoms such as hyperactivity, aggressive behavior, explosive temper, grandiose notions and sometimes delusions. People in this phase may have increased energy and little need for sleep. They may also have exaggerated feelings of productivity and sociability. Spending sprees, hypersexuality and

genes causing the disorder. Regardless of the causes, bipolar disorder is a highly treatable disease. With accurate diagnoses and effective medication, most patients can lead normal lives. The most common medication for the disease is lithium. The drug, which is a natural salt found in rock, works to stabilize moods and prevent episodes of mania and depression from occurring. Side effects of lithium are minimal and include hand Ted Turner Ernest Hemingway Lord Byron tremors, excessive thirst and memory problems.
