spent on pizza and beer, the biggest costs in college are likely to be living expenses, textbook purchases and tuition charges. A new copy of Ancient History, a 563 page hard-cover textbook published by Macmillan Publishing Company, costs $75 at the University Bookstore. With tuition prices at about $50 per credit hour, one textbook could cost over half the price of a class. When asked about the price of textbooks, students often give a similar response. "I think they're incredibly too high," said Chrishian McCollam, UCO student. Textbook prices may leave students feeling like they are being robbed but, when all is said and paid for, few are making out like thieves. Although the college bookstore lines may echo with complaints, many argue the students are getting what they pay for. "Students will gripe about the cost of textbooks even though they don't blink at paying five bucks for movie popcorn and a drink that's mostly ice," Helen Heightsman Gordon, professor of English at Bakersfield College in California, wrote in an article for the Association of American Publishers (AAP) magazine.

It is probably safe to say that most students operate on limited funds. If they didn't, dorm rooms might not be so popular, financial aid would exist as a near-useless entity and parents might be a wee-bit happier. But, dorm rooms at several Oklahoma colleges stay, on the average, about 70 percent to 80 percent full except in the summer. About $18 million in financial aid was given out in the 1993-94 school year and out of 50 Oklahoma college students surveyed, 36 received some support from their parents with college expenses. Although some of that money may be

attended each of the seven seminars, which were intended to alleviate grief and frustration on the students' part when dealing with the office. "I had about 1,000 fliers posted all over campus, there was a flier put in every person's mailbox who lives in the dorms, there was about 6,000 fliers sent out with financial aid statements, and an article in The Vista," said Kenneth Ward, financial aid peer counselor.

"I don't know how to advertise any better than we did, yet we still got a very, very poor turnout." Ward said he tried to remedy the poor attendance from last year's sessions by offering them in the mornings and afternoons and advertising heavily. "It's discouraging because I know there are students out there who don't understand the financial aid process and they get very

iffy-two million dollars. One would think that such an amount would be more than enough to bring about certain sweeping changes in the external make-up of UCO. Apparently it won't be. Many people wouldn't have any idea of what to do with $52 million and it appears that the university's officials fall into that category. But they might have an idea of what to do with more money: stop up the holes in their Master Plan, which is leaking money into an inflated market. Still the idea had its merits and at the time ft seemed worth the price, but now as problems arise to drain money intended for other areas, students are beginning to realize the enormity of the situation is no longer in the hands of its creators. Rumor has it that part of the construction that has already started may cease because of the lack of funding, and the reason behind the stoppage may be inflation, or perhaps because the planners did not anticipate the problems that have incurred since the original groundbreaking. The construction is expected, according to the original blue prints, to be completed by 1996. But with the threat of inflation soaring ever higher, it may never happen. These eyesores may grace our campus forever. On Sept. 16 at the State Regents meeting, original assigned funds that were set aside for construction on the Industrial Arts Building were shifted to help finish the third floor of the General Education Building. The rising costs of materials and hidden gas, water and sewer lines turning up while digging the 20-foot wide ditch that will house the heating and cooling lines also have pushed back much of the restoration. The ditch yawns like a moat around a medieval castle, lacking only water and alligators. A few temporary "drawbridges" span the ditch, waiting for unsuspecting students to cross over it. These are just a few of the delays and changes that we can expect to happen the next few years with the construction on campus. It's still unknown whether the freshmen entering UCO this fall will be able to reap the benefits of all of the changes that are occurring, or if the construction stays around longer than they will. As we keep our fingers crossed that all will go as planned and there will be enough money left to finish our metamorphosis, we will just have to put our hard-hats and steel-toe boots back on to try and weather the storm.

his is a note to say "Thank You" to all the people who worked on "The Haunted House" at the University Center Building. It
was a joint effort of many people. They had very good ideas, lots of hard work and little money to do it with. It was a huge success. I brought four
grandchildren to visit and attend the dance on Saturday night. It was enjoyed by all. Thank you. —Earlene Baxter

/
this: "There is no such thing as a non-vote." In its effect it is a yes vote in favor of the outcome of the election. Also, students should understand that special interest groups
with their own selfish agenda hope you don't vote because that makes their own block voting that much more effective. —James F. Baker

Issues, not person, should be goal of SGA
I
am writing this letter to share my concern for the Student Government Association. I have been attending the meetings on a regular basis for the past couple of months and realize that something must be done to alleviate some of the disputes. I am currently serving as SGA's director for student relations. Through this position, I have had the opportunity to get to know most
everyone on the senate. The students that are representing us have potential for implementing good, quality programs. The problem that I see is that when legislation is brought to a vote, it becomes a game. I believe that the object of the game should not be, if I like the person, I will vote for their legislation. It should be if the issue is good, I will vote for it. A woman I highly respect once told me that when dealing
with problems, make people invisible and concentrate only on the issues at hand. I truly believe we have a wonderful group of SGA representatives. However, output could be generated quicker if we would pull together as the word "association" implies in Student Government Association. —Tawni Corwin

Resident wants parking problems fixed
I
am a resident at the Broncho I apartments. We have been facing a lot of parking problems since the housing has implemented a fixed parking lot as of fall 1993. Until now, the problems have not been resolved. Moreover, there are more and more problems being created and the residents here feel very upset and disturbed and very dissatisfied with the way the housing is handling this matter. We were told to report any
matter to the campus police if we had parking problems after office hours. Until now, I don't know what the housing is doing as the problems we're facing here isn't being resolved. There are even signs that states that vehicles of violators will be towed away, but sadly this isn't being enforced. Moreover, we the residents have to pay for the decal to park our cars. If I don't have my lot to park in, why should we pay $25 for parking? Before the system was imple-
mented, the residents here lived peacefully. Now, there are just signs of frustration among the residents here because rules are not being enforced properly. I sincerely hope matters will improve and someone of high authority to give special attention to this matter. We, the residents, are suffering due to no fault of ours but the policy implemented by the housing. —Andrew Gui

Student Senate squabbles dispersed by 'airing out' in newspaper letters; radio debate scheduled on campus By David L. Hanigar Staff Writer Several letters to the editor and words with four letters have revolved around controversy in the UCO student government. Whether it's discrimination or violations, nearly every previous issue of The Vista has contained a letter to the editor or an article about problems in the student senate. That's why radio disc jockey Jake Steel will offer an - on the air" opportunity for Student Body President Ben Harris to argue his case with some of those who oppose his actions.

chance to settle this once and for all," Steel said. "I've been reading, the articles and wondering if anything worthwhile is being done with our money, or if the Student Senate is too busy arguing with each other." The campus radio station Z-99 will broadcast a debate featuring Harris and a supporter of his policies, Senator Keith Weber against Doug Redus, speaker of the senate and Senator Carol Crawley. The debate will occur Monday at 4 p.m. Callers will be allowed to voice their opinions and/or ask questions, Steel said. The station frequency is 99.9 FM or 93.9 on cable radio and is broadcast across most of the university grounds.

year because this is something that could be really useful to them." The seminar on scholarships garnered the most attention, he said, bringing in 35 to 40 students. "I think that the students who came to the scholarship session were students who had not applied or were eligible for financial aid," Ward said. "They were the ones ambitious about looking for other ways to pay for their education." Ward said he is producing a financial aid handbook specific to UCO that explains the process. "I hope by doing that, we'll hit
more students, because they won't have to make the time to come to a session. They can just read the information," he said. He still intends to hold the seminars each fall, though. "I'll just be looking for new and different things to do with them." The financial aid office will hold another seminar at the end of November or beginning of December to show students how to fill out the 1995 financial aid applications, available Jan. 3. .4)

They rescued the 43-year-old San Francisco man kidnapped for 10 days by Muslim militants, finding him Nov. 1 in a house under surveillance in a criminal investigation. "Today, when I heard noises. I felt good, I knew something was happening. and then came the policemen," Nuss said after being freed. Three Britons were also abducted in New Delhi, and the kidnappers threatened to behead all four unless their jailed comrades were released. The Britons were rescued Nov. 1 by police after a gun battle that left two policemen and a kidnapper dead. a police spokesman said. Following information from Nuss, police raided a house in Saharanpur, 30 miles east of New Delhi, where the hostages were kept.

2 students capture $3,000 first prize with interpretation of 'basic concepts' By Russ TallChief
Guest Writer Collaborating on an inspirational video for a worthwhile cause paid off for two UCO broadcasting students. Deborah Meek and Travis Schutten captured first prize and $3,000 in the seventh annual video contest for college students sponsored by The Christophers, a non-profit international media organization. The theme of the contest was One Person Can Make a Difference." College students were asked to submit a creative video interpretation of this basic concept promoted by The Christophers since 1945. The winning video produced by the students was titled "Angel of Hope." The video profiled co-founder of the Jesus House Sister Ruth Wynne and her goal to leave this world better than she found it. Meek said the Oklahoma City homeless shelter and Sister Ruth inspired her to enter the contest. "The Jesus House gives peo-
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Chinese Premier Li Peng and South Korean President Kim Young-sam pledged Nov. 1 to further improve economic relations between their countries, enemies during the Cold War and longtime rivals. They also agreed to cooperate closely to help implement a U.S.-brokered accord with North Korea aimed at opening its feared nuclear program to international inspection, South Korean officials said. The Li-Kim meeting was the highlight of Li's five-day visit to South Korea, which began Oct. 31. The Chinese premier is also scheduled to meet with business leaders and visit automobile, electronics and aviation plants. The two sides signed agreements today to develop peaceful nuclear power and open direct airline flights. Business leaders from both countries called for joint development of airplanes, cars and electronic communication systems.
Killer sentenced to life in Mexico MEXICO CITY (AP) — After seven months of conspiracy theories and botched investigations, the confessed killer of the ruling party's assassinated presidential candidate has been sentenced to 42 years in prison. The attorney general's office immediately said it would appeal, demanding the maximum of 50 years. Mexico has no death penalty. Aburto, a 23-year-old factory worker, was seized by police immediately after he fatally shot Luis Donaldo Colosio on March 23 during a campaign rally in the border city of Tijuana. Aburto confessed almost immediately, but said he had only intended to wound Colosio to win attention for his views about social ills in Mexico. He claimed to have acted alone. Investigators say Aburto's motive remains unclear. They say that Aburto, who called himself the "Eagle Knight" in scrawled writings discovered by police, suffered from paranoic delusions.
Ruling party subdued in Columbia BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — The ruling Liberal Party lost control of every major Colombian city in elections for governors, mayors and city councils. In a blow to recently elected President Ernesto Samper, party incumbents were ousted Sunday in the capital Bogota, and in Cali, Medellin, Barranquilla and Pasto. Antanas Mockus, a former president of the national university, was elected mayor of Bogota, despite running as an independent and spending virtually no money on his campaign. Conservative political novice Sergio Naranjo was elected mayor in Medellin, Colombia's second city. He used to be president of the soccer team Atletico Nacional, a former national champion.

Oklahoman riding high again in 'outlaw country' By Jimmy Hyde Staff Writer
/
n music today there are few "legends" still active, let alone still vital. Ray Wylie Hubbard is such an artist. Back
with a new album and a more folk oriented sound, Hubbard will be celebrating the release of Loco Gringo's Lament with a performance Saturday night at the Blue Door in Oklahoma City. Born in Hugo, Okla. and raised south of the Red River, Hubbard,
Ray Wylie Hubbard
along with Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and David Allan Coe, spearheaded the "outlaw country movement" in the early '70s. Blending rock and country, these four took Gram Parson's vision of "cosmic American music" one step further thus paving the way for modern day country rockers like Steve Earle and Dwight Yoakam. Hubbard might be best known for penning the progressive country anthem "Up Against The Wa1 1, Redneck Mother," made popular by Jerry Jeff Walker, who recorded the song for his 1973 album Viva Terlingua. After spend(Photo courtesy of Dejadisc records) ing years on the Texas live
circuit with his band the Cowboy Twinkies, Hubbard's big break came in 1976 when Warner Reprise Records released Ray Wylie Hubbard and the Cowboy Twinkies debut record. The album failed to capture the live intensity of the group's performances but sold moderately well. Another record was cut for Willie Nelson's Lone Star Records before the label and eventually the band ceased to exist. Hubbard persevered, releasing many albums over the next 15 years. Last year Hubbard released Lost Train Of Thought on his own label. The record sold well despite lacking the benefit of national distribution, a testament to constant touring. Loco Gringo's Lament marks the first nationally released album in some time for this fabled singersongwriter. The record could be called "a return to Hubbard's roots," because it is evident in the more folk oriented songs. Before beginning his odyssey as a "country outlaw," Hubbard did time as a folk singer in New Mexico. The record kicks off with the haunting finger picked melody of "Dust Of The Chase," beginning a roller coaster ride of American music that lingers in your ears for
days. The record shows what a versatile and outstanding songwriter Ray Wylie Hubbard is. Hubbard has the uncanny knack of transcribing life's losses and gains into song. He tells a story with each verse wrapping that lyric with a subtle melody like the title track or the nasty guitar riff in "Little Angel Comes A Walkin'." Songs like these are not written, they are told. They come from real life experiences gained through living the music, not hanging around Nashville trying to look cool, hawking lame songs to "Mr. Big." Ray Wylie Hubbard is the real thing, he has played honky tonks and bars across the country most of his life. On Loco Gringo's Lament, Hubbard is backed by longtime sidekick Oklahoman guitarist Terry Ware, plus a cast of notables highlighted by Lisa Mednick and Iain Matthews and producer Lloyd Maines. Hopefully, with a dedicated label like Dejadisc behind him, Hubbard's blend of folk, rock and country will get the recognition it deserves. Ray Wylie Hubbard will take the stage at 9 p.m. Saturday at the Blue Door, located at 2805 N. McKinley. Tickets are $10.

Frank Keating, R-Oklahoma City Keating believes ethics reform and leadership by example will restore the people's confidence in state leaders—his number one priority. The Keating administration promises to stress programs in three areas: opportunity, neighborhoods and education. "In the area of opportunity, we will launch a program to create jobs—that means right to work, workers compensation reform, targeted tax credits, regulatory rollbacks and enterprise zones." Keating said shifting of funds from nonessential areas to projects and programs of high priority may be required to stretch tax dollars.
Lieutenant Governor ****** Nance Diamond, D-Shawnee "I will work aggressively to recruit industry to Oklahoma and work with communities to enhance their ability to attract new industry and expand existing industries." He also places tourism, crime prevention and volunteerism and community development as important issues.
Mary Fallin, R-Oklahoma City "The best way to spur economic growth is to lower our worker's compensation rates and increase fraud investigations. Secondly, we need to unleash the stranglehold of unnecessary rules and regulations that stifle small business growth."
Bruce Hartnitt, 1-Tulsa Hartnitt said he has a plan for alternatives to abortions by establishing the non-profit New Life Foundation. Also, "If elected, I will work for small business development and in partnership with foreign investors, such as Korea."
*** Superintendent of Public Instruction *** Sandy Garrett, D-Oklahoma City Garrett said public schools have learned to spend wisely— "We have put every possible dollar where it belongs—in the classroom. Our reform efforts include implementing a statewide academic curriculum and a new testing system that will measure basic knowledge and practical skills." Reformed teacher education, teaching of good character, ethics and citizenship and encouraging innovation are some of the ideas she plans to implement.

Linda Murphy, R-Muskogee Murphy said she is committed to strengthening local control of public schools by working to stop state and federal mandates, encouraging rural schools and promoting parental involvement with the schools. She would like to see policies for discipline, finance, academic standards and teaching methods be locally developed, and control returned to elected school boards. She said she would also research theories such as Outcome Based Education.
******State Auditor and Inspector****** Did not send photo
Clifton H. Scott, D-Tecumseh Scott promises to blow the whistle on any detected waste, fraud or abuse of tax dollars. "...As State Auditor and Inspector, the top priority will be to continue to increase public awareness of how tax dollars are spent by issuing audit reports on public entities of government."

Jerry Gerald Paul Dulaney, R-Oklahoma City Mr. Dulaney submitted no information and could not be reached by The Vista.
****** Commissioner of Labor ****** Dave Renfro, D-Oklahoma City Renfro's priority is to "improve the efficiency and accountability of Oklahoma Department of Labor employees in their service to Oklahoma taxpayers in general and wage-earners in particular. I would do this by improving the efficiency and expanding outreach of major program changes I implemented during the previous years." Renfro also vows to continue expansion of the child labor enforcement unit of the department.
Brenda Reneau, R-Edmond Reneau said she wants balanced enforcement of the state's labor laws and for the employees of the Labor Department to "treat all citizens and workers equally and fairly." She said she will also "restore integrity, efficiency and morale through the elimination of sexual harassment and intimidation in the Commissioner of Labor's office."

Wes Watkins, I-Stillwater Watkins' top priority is economic recovery. "Building better jobs will have an enormous impact on our state and will facilitate solving other problems, including crime and welfare. Meaningful work is often the best crime deterrent. An improved economy is crucial for significant welfare reform. Additionally, economic recovery generates badly needed dollars for other priorities such as education and infrastructure revitalization."
Jack Mildren, D-Oklahoma City ' Mildren's platform centers around honesty in governmental offices, bringing jobs to the state through education and reducing crime. "Education and jobs remain key to Oklahoma's future. To progress in education, we must encourage more local school flexibility, innovation and !community-based decision making. On the economic front, creating opportunities, eliminating 'unnecessary regulations and helping existing businesses prosper will be a personal priority." Mildren also said he will enforce the death penalty, provide more jail space and increase the time prisoners serve.
********* Attorney General ********* Drew Edmondson, D-Muskogee Edmondson has made the reduction of juvenile crime and gang activity and cutting of lengthy appeals in death penalty cases his priority. "As counsel to the Commission of Children and Youth, I will be an advocate for children who are abused or neglected. My office will be active against consumer fraud especially where it preys upon our senior citizens. I will vigorously enforce Open Meeting, Open Record and campaign ethics."

Mike Hunter, R-Oklahoma City Hunter said the system by which the number of appeals are granted to criminal defendants in capitol murder cases delays death sentences by as many as 15 years. "As Attorney General, I will work to limit death penalty convictions to one appeal in state court. In addition, I am challenging Oklahoma's congressional delegation to endorse the Powell Committee recommendations which significantly limit and rationalize the appeals process in the federal courts."
****** Insurance Commissioner ****** G. Carroll Fisher, D-Iblsa "I would like to protect the insurance consumers by providing a solvent market, professional and ethical agents, and a department of insurance trained to respond to the needs of Oklahomans. I will provide a resource to the state legislature of education, training and experience when they are considering insurance Iegislation...Decisions made by the Insurance Department will be made because they are right for Oklahomans, not based on past political favors owed to special interest groups."
John P. Crawford, R-Oklahoma City Crawford said he wants to ensure the "financial health of each and every company. My experience will enable me to view the problems and offer solutions to abate insolvencies."
Charles Nesbitt, D-Oklahoma City Nesbitt said the duties of the Corporation Commissioner require "legal experience, honesty, courage, and a willingness to work hard in behalf of Oklahoma consumers. I feel that I have done that before and can do it again." Nesbitt served as Attorney General from 1963-67 and as Corporation Commissioner from 1968-75, when he said he "straightened the place out." He considers his principle role in government as a "trouble-shooter."
Bob Anthony, R-Oklahoma City The functions of the Corporation Commissioner require a "balancing act," Anthony said. It is "Oklahoma's most economically powerful state agency. In one way or another, we directly affect the health, safety and pocketbooks of every family in this state. Therefore, an Oklahoma Corporation Commissioner must have the courage to make decisions regardless of the parties or the politics involved."
****** Corporation Commissioner****** ********* State Treasurer ********* Robert Butkin, D-Oklahoma City Butkin served as Assistant Attorney General under both Robert Henry and Susan Loving and represented consumers in the utility rate case against Southwestern Bell and argued the Illinois River case before the Supreme Court. "My overriding concern is restoring integrity to the office of State Treasurer. Oklahomans are simply looking for someone to step forward and run the office with accountability, honesty and integrity."

Bob Keasler, R-TbIsa Keasler is the vice president of Smith Barney, Inc., and manages and invests millions of other people's dollars. He believes that "integrity depends on a person's values, and you can only have integrity in office by hiring people of good moral principles and demonstrated values...I would install as regular procedures an in-house auditing and compliance team that would monitor all activities in the State Treasurer's office."

After a much needed week off, the 18th-ranked Central Oklahoma Bronchos return home to Wantland Stadium to face a NCAA Division II foe, the Antelopes of Nebraska-Kearney. The Bronchos will put a 14 game non-conference winning streak on the line when they step out of Lone Star Conference play this Saturday in the final home game of the 1994 season. There will be a lot riding on this game as both teams are hoping to keep their Division II playoff chances alive. Currently the Bronchos are 6-2 on the season, 2-2 in LSC play, and are fifth in the West Region. The Antelopes are ranked sixth in the Midwest Region, holding a 72 record on the year. The Bronchos have never lost to UNK, leading the series 2-0. The week off gave UCO a chance to recover from injuries to starters offensive guard Mike
Filson, offensive tackle Chance Nelson and tight end Lewis Griffin. All will be back for the UNK game. Split end Tony Bryson, out with an ankle injury, is probable for the contest. Defensive tackle Joe O'neal is out for the season with a knee injury. Nebraska-Kearney possesses an offensive line that averages 313 pounds, led by 6-8 345 pound OT Sean Evans and 6-7 360 pound 00 George Murdoch. Behind this huge line the offense is averaging 363.3 yards a game in total offense, with tailbacks E.J. Hancock rushing for 727 yards on 148 carries and five touchdowns and Dale Van Housen getting 577 yards on 118 carries and five TDs this season. Quarterback Chad Rutar has passed for 1,445 yards, completing 101 of 215 passes. UNK has two receivers with over 500 yards each, split end Todd McCoy and flanker Mike Smith. On defense the Antelopes are giving up 404.6 yards a game, 168.8 rushing and 235.8 passing. Kickoff will be 1 p.m. at Wantland Stadium.

Women's time has come'
Women taking over driver's seats in politics—a welcome addition to social growth?
T
By Julie Dye Staff Writer
he top two candidates running for the secondhighest ranking state office are women. So are the candidates for Superintendent of Public Instruction. I nst term, six women served in the State Senate and seven in the House of Representatives. Women have been slowly earning their way into the higher echelons of government since the 19th Amendment, giving women the right to vote, was passed less than 75 years ago. Today, the good ol' boy network is alive and well, said Professor of political science Drew Mason, but it is increasingly being infiltrated by women who competently manage tax dollars, create laws and policy, and change the way we think about each other. ‘ ‘ omen's W time has come," Mason said. "Clearly, women bring a real dimension to politics, but also an indefinable attitude that develops from having women on equal footing in what was once an all-male field." Women entering the political arena do not necessarily bring an attitude of fewer wars or more sensitivity, Mason said. "Women can be just as responsible for financial affairs as men," he said.

In fact, he said most women work a little harder to prove their worth and many are tougher than their male counterparts. But, this is nothing new. For more than a century, women have been working to gain access to the political forums free and open to their husbands.
But, Kremm said, two dates in history were critical to the advancement of women's rights. "In 1840, the American antislavery societies sent delegates to the world anti-slavery convention in London. "Several of the American delegates were women, who arrived
any...success until 1869...when the Wyoming territory approved a law allowing women to vote." remm said lawmakers in the western states ere eager to attract families to the frontier, and even mandated equal pay for female teachers.

Clearly, women bring a real dimension to politics, but also an indefinable attitude that develops from having women on equal footing in what was once an all-male field. —Drew Mason
UCO political science professor
Diane Kremm, professor of women's history, said the origins of women in politics was closely linked to the temperance and antislavery movements of the 1800s. "If the husband drank up the family's income, and the wife had to take in sewing or something like that to support herself and the children, at that time, the husband could legally take all earnings of his wife and minor children as his property, and he could squander that, too," Kremm said. "...Wives needed to be able to have their own earnings. They needed a revision of property laws." omen working in the anti-slavery movement began to notice the situations of the two groups had a lot in common, she said. "They could own no property, they had no voice in anything. Many thought it was a logical movement."
only to be told they could not be seated as official delegates. They could stay and watch the proceedings from behind a screen as unofficial observers." Two of those women were Lecretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who vowed to do something about the inequities once they got home. "It wasn't until 1848 that Stanton issued a call for a women's rights convention that met in Seneca Falls, New York." During that meeting, Kremm said, the attendants approved a declaration of sentiments that enumerated a number of grievances, such as property law revision, and demanded the vote. "That set the ball in motion. Women and men began to speak and write on behalf of women voting, as well as the other reforms, but they got nowhere. "Women would not see

"While, state-by-state, some approved, many women in much of the country still could not vote. "The momentum started to shift with World War I. President Woodrow Wilson explained that the U.S. entered the war to make the world safe for democracy. "And yet, half of its citizens did not enjoy the full rights of democracy. remm said women from he more radical British uffrage movements joined U.S. women in their efforts. "One of these was Alice Paul. She used techniques that were

designed to embarrass the administration—pickets in front of the White House, hunger strikes—real attention-getting things. "This helped win over President Wilson and many members of Congress who perceived that maybe this needed to be." After the war, women who made sacrifices for the war effort were stepping forward asking for their rights as full citizens, she said. n 1920, the 19th Amendment was passed, but many women did not take advantage of their new right to vote. "Some still persisted in seeing the world of politics as the outside world. Many saw the sphere of women was the home. Some just thought it was inappropriate. "Many men opposed, believing it would be disruptive to the home, promote arguments in the family, children would become delinquents because of the time their mothers spent with interest in politics." She said many liquor industries, and those companies that used child labor, thought their interests were threatened if women could vote. "As it turned out, women have proved to be as diverse a voting group as men." A)

Nursing department notches another accreditation into 'belt' By Nicki Cormier Staff Writer The UCO nursing department has once again been accredited by the National League For Nursing (NLN). "Our last visit from the NLN was in 1986, at that time we received continuing accreditation for a period of eight years," said Dr. Carol Swink, the chairwoman of the nursing department. UCO's nursing department has been continuously accredited since the first graduating class in 1972, she said. The nursing department faculty spent the 1993-94 school year evaluating and writing a self study progam. Evaluators from the NLN visited

the nursing department for a week in April of this year. They reviewed the self study and all other aspects of the program, including a select review of all the clinical sources the department uses, said Swink. "The results were presented to the National League for Nurses Board of Review that met Oct. 18 and we were once again awarded the accreditation for eight more years." The NLN is the accrediting body for all nursing programs in the United States. It is the only nursing body that accredits nurses, said Swink. op 0

The festivities are part of UCO's "Salute to Education Week," with the theme, "Building on the past for the future," said Elsner. "Even though we had the official groundbreaking in April, this ceremony is to signify the actual construction of the first building in the $52 million Master Plan." Planners studied similar buildings at the University of Indiana, Purdue, and Ball State before drawing plans for the new facility. Construction of the building will begin immediately, with project completion set for spring of 1996, at a cost of about $4 million, said Elsner.
CRIME: Keating's seven-point crime plan includes putting violent offenders behind bars forever, truth in sentencing and the abolition of parole, repealing the cap law, juvenile justice reform (juvenile boot camps and automatic adult status for six specific violent offenses), privatization of minimum and medium security prisons, renaming the Department of Corrections to the Department of Prisons, and tax credits to law enforcement students as reimbursement for the cost of tuition. GUN CONTROL: Frank Keating believes in the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution and will not support any attempt to deprive Oklahomans of their right to keep and bear arms. TAXES: Frank Keating believes in targeted tax cuts to stimulate small business and will work to repeal or resist government regulations that are harmful to Oklahoma business. TORT REFORM: Frank Keating supports the shortening of the statute of limitations for manufactured product liability claims, making punitive damages more difficult, and greater authority to courts for sanctions against those who file frivolous lawsuits. WORKERS' COMPENSATION: Keating favors real workers' compensation reform — and overhaul of the entire Oklahoma workers' compensation system, including toughening penalties for fraudulent claims, increasing the number of investigators from three to forty, and pooling of medical experts. EDUCATION: Keating's education agenda includes public school choice, a 10% tax credit to businesses that hire Oklahoma graduates, changing the pay scale so the only administrators who are paid more than a master teacher are principals and superintendents, increased local control, putting more money in the classrooms by dramatically reducing non-teaching staff and administrative support, liberalizing teacher certification so people with practical experience can teach their craft, and for teachers — dollar-for-dollar tax credits for pursuing additional education. HEALTH CARE: Frank Keating supports reform within the existing private framework that includes freedom of choice for the insured. He does not support employer-pay mandates or government run health care of any kind. WELFARE REFORM: Frank Keating believes that we should limit welfare to two years, that the able-bodied should not be entitled to benefits, and that AFDC (Aid to Families with Dependent Children) payments should be limited to the first baby born out of wedlock to a single mother. After all, welfare should be a lifeline, not a lifestyle.
