Uncovered items in Food Court 'not safe,' sources say By Mark A. Schneberger Staff Writer
U
CO students and faculty who purchase pastries or cream pie slices from the Food Court in the University Center may get more than a tasty treat for their dollar—they may be facing a nasty case of food poisoning, said officials from the university's Central Cafeteria and human environmental sciences department. The confections, including cream pies, cakes and brownies, often sit uncovered directly in front of the cash registers, only inches from a steady crowd of passing purchasers. The placement of the pastries expose them to a host of hazards, including physical contact from passersby, such as brushing a coat sleeve through cake toppings. A worst-case scenario could be that the items, such as cream pies which sometimes sit uncovered for hours and regularly drop to room temperature, could be highly contaminated by bacteria and expose consumers to strains which cause food poisoning and illness, said Dr. Valerie Knotts, human environmental sciences associate professor. "It's not safe to keep (food) uncovered because anyone can sneeze and cough as they walk by and leave bacteria on it," she said. "And foods with protein and dairy products in them (such as pies) have to be kept on ice" or they can be host for Salmonella bacteria. Rob Archuleta, manager of the Food Court Express said he was aware that his business's cream pies, layered chocolate cakes and other items sit uncovered. However, he said he felt patrons are in no danger of facing food poisoning, because the items sell too quickly to be contaminated. "Since we moved them (near the cash registers) we've sold three times as many of them. We put them up there as impulse items," Archuleta said. "They sell very fast." He also noted that the items don't sit uncovered all day. Rather, they have lids to protect them. "If you find them uncovered, that's because the lids are being washed," he said.

At the time Archuleta was interviewed he was unable to produce the lids, which he claimed covered the food items. Employees were also unable to find the lids. Last week staff members from The Vista surveyed the pastry area. Surveyors recorded that a layered, chocolate devils food cake sat open-faced for two hours, as did a chocolate cream pie. Only one piece of both items sold during that time "period. Student consumers also noted they regularly found the items sitting without lids. "I'd never buy those things, I'm afraid of what could have (fallen) onto them, or that flies could have walked around on them," said freshman Melanie Morphis. "It's just too gross to think about eating them." The Food Court is not affiliated with the Central Cafeteria, but is a separate entity comprised of fast-food outlets, including Subway, Taco Bell and Chick-Fil-A. UCO's Central Cafeteria Supervisor, Hazel Banks, said any amount of time that Kevin Connywerdy, a member of the Comanche food is left uncovered is dangerous. tribe from Norman, performs the Fancy Shawl "The only way you can sit anything out in Dance inside the University Center as part of a public area for consumption is if the food is Saturday's Red Earth Festival.

"But just leaving it there, unprotected is a no-no." Archuleta would not explain why the confections 45 degrees Fahrenheit is another violation. "Any unwrapped food items must be protected at all were not shielded by a "sneeze guard," a plastic structure designed to keep patrons from contaminating times by a sneeze shield or any other mechanical barrier food by coughing on sneezing on it. Sneeze guards are between the food and consumers," he said. "And any cream pies or that kind of stuff need to be used in other areas throughout the Food Court. refrigerated at all times. That's law, and there's no way "Why don't we have a sneeze guard for them? I'm of getting around it." not going to get into that," he said. Despite the hazards, campus health officials said they But not having a guard or regular covering over food items is a direct violation of Federal and Oklahoma State have had no reported cases of food poisoning this year.

EDITORIAL
Some instructors orget the reason they're here ost of us have had at least one college professor who seemed to know his subject matter but couldn't relate M it effectively. Some of us have even been unfortunate enough to get an instructor who seemed as if he would rather be doing something other than teaching. When we talk to our classmates, we find others share our opinions of these instructors. Yet somehow, these instructors return to teach year after year. Most of the time, these teachers that don't teach manage to keep their jobs by completing research projects, speaking at seminars, and publishing papers. This may develop prestige for the teacher and the school, but it doesn't do much for student understanding. It's important for any school to promote and reward projects undertaken by its faculty. These projects not only develop prestige for the school, but they also help keep instructors up-to-date in their fields of study. However, this thrust for faculty development cannot be allowed to overshadow what happens in the classroom. When students begin to suffer because of a teacher's ineffectiveness, the university needs to remind itself that students are the ultimate reason the university exists. As faculty evaluations are circulated this month, administrators would be well-advised to remember that. OD Pujan Roka /The Vista

LETTERS
Band members disgusted with low turnout at games, encourage student participation
W
e are writing this letter out of complete and total disgust in the support given by the student body for the UCO football team. It is appalling to us that out of 15,000 students , the absolutely preposterous amount of 30 were present at Saturday's game, at which ,15 left in the middle of the third quarter. Time and time again, we hear students complain about the fact that UCO doesn't have a college atmosphere and that something needs to be done. These are the same imbeciles that sit at home every Saturday totally unaware that there is a game taking place at Wantland Stadium. It is also a tragedy to point out the fact that the 30 student fans who did take the time to show their "support" turned the whole
game into nothing but a social hour. This situation is totally unacceptable. How can the football team be expected to rally around complete and total silence? The season started in a blaze with about 400 students attending our pre-season bonfire on September 5. However, the following day was disheartening. A dismal half of those people attended the game on Saturday. Student attendance dropped off steadily after that game until homecoming. The overwhelming amount of students at the game was by all means stupendous. However, after half-time and the announcement of the parade winners, the ratio of students who departed to the students who remained was at best sickening. Let's turn this place into a real
campus. Let's pack the stadium and scream so loudly that every visiting team will realize before the game even starts, that the trip to Edmond was a complete waste of gasoline. We applaud the cheers, poms, and the five costumed studs that have shown tremendous "Broncho Spirit." As members of the band, we feel proud to be under the instruction of the loudest Broncho fan of them all, Mr. Lee Rucker, who in the past 20 years has missed one game for the birth of his beautiful daughter, Lindsay. Go Blue!

Seminar teaches college women self-defense By Colby Grieser Staff Writer
T
hree out of 10 women will be physically or sexually assaulted while attending college, according to Michael Moses, director of safety for Dander Restaurants for the Oklahoma region. This statistic is one reason Boosting Alcohol Consciousness Concerning the Health of University Students (BACCHUS) sponsored a self-defense seminar for UCO students Thursday night. BACCHUS wanted it to go along with Alcohol Awareness Week to show a
different aspect of protecting student's safety, said Stacy Strahan, BACCHUS member. "We want students to know how to be more aware and to be prepared for anything that might happen," she said. Moses taught the class several selfdefense moves and used members of the audience for demonstrations. Moses, formerly of the Bowie County Sheriff's Department wanted the students to be aware of what an assailant might be thinking. "Most attackers have a plan—they think about what they are going to do to their victims before they attack," he said. An attacker might come up behind a
victim, grab them and throw them against something, then get what they want, said Moses. After a short lecture, Moses asked for volunteers to show them selfdefense techniques such as: getting out of the way of an assailant, how to get out of wrist grabs and how to face an assailant. "If you stand sideways, it cuts the attacker's target in half, which increases your chances of getting away," said Moses. Sixteen students showed up for the event, and several participated. Self-defense instructor Michael Moses BACCHUS hopes to have the event demonstrates techniques to freshman Kelley George in Hamilton Fieldhouse again in the spring, said Strahan.
Professors' association calls for updated salaries By Phillip Roder Staff Writer

"We don't have the proper funding to send faculty members to symposiums and seminars that would be beneficial to both the faculty and students," she said. "One other thing we would like to do is enhance the in-service training program at the university." The staff needs to be trained properly when we receive new equipment, so the equipment can be utilized to its full potential," she said. Another goal seeks to lessen the university's dependence on part-time positions, said Terrell. "We want to encourage the university to turn some of the positions into full-time," she said. "AAUP-UCO chapter understands the funding limitations, but the chapter wants to continue to lobby for equity adjustments from the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education," Terrell said. "Also, we need to find where our waste is coming from and filter it out, so we can utilize that money in a more productive way," she said. Terrell said the North Central Association did an on-site visit at UCO and some of the recommendations were similar to UCO's Chapter goals.
he local chapter of American Association of University Professors (AAUP) has set their goals for the 1997-98 school year, which calls for funding to bring professor salaries closer to regional levels, sabbaticals, and updated technology. Dr. Katherene Terrell, AAUP-UCO chapter president, said they have set goals that are achievable and important to the university. "This list of goals was presented to President Roger Webb by chapter officers and the meeting was very productive," said Terrell. This year the local AAUP chapter wants to redefine its educational mission at the university, she said. One goal is to bring the salaries up to date, she said. "Salaries at the university have increased over the last seven years 20.3 percent, while the cost of living has increased 27.9 percent," Terrell said. "The plan calls to restore the 7.5 percent loss over no more than four years and provide additional increases for International Students the cost of living over that timeframe," she said Study English and prepare for the TOEFL In addition, the plan will bring in a friendly, comfortable environment salary levels closer to the regional without fear of failure. salary levels, she said.

Bronchos fall to Southwestern streak ends By Chad Willming Sports Editor Southwestern quarterback Brad Woodard threw three touchdown passes propelling the Bulldogs to a 33-17 victory over Central Oklahoma Saturday at Wantland Stadium The crowd of 2,850 saw the Bulldogs snap UCO's 11-game home winning streak and a six-game season winning streak. Southwestern, the defending NAIA national champions, playing in their first full season as an NCAA Division II member, defeated the Bronchos for just the 20th time in 73 meetings.

Volleyball team wins two at Drury Classic By Darrell J. Weidner Sports Writer
T
he Central Oklahoma Bronchos continued to work their way down the road to the postseason, when they won two of four games they played at the Drury Classic in Springfield, Mo. In their first game Friday, the Bronchos defeated Lyon College in three straigl_it games (15-,15-11, 15-4). The Bronchos offense was k 1 by Kate O'Neill. O'Neill landed 10 kills out of 14 attempts. The Bronchos defense was anchored by Karyn Posey, who earned seven digs. In Friday's second match, Central Oklahoma fell to Columbia College in three games (15-6, 15-8, 15-10).
On Saturday, Central Oklahoma defeated Drury State in five games (15-4, 13-15, 15-8, 14-16, 15-11). Offensively, Central Oklahoma was spurred by O'Neill, who landed 20 out of 32 attempted kills for a hitting average of .563. O'Neill has earned the LSCNorth Div. 'Hitter of the Week' three times this season. Adriana Crovador, a Sophomore from Jenks, led the Bronchos' defense against Drury. The outside hitter earned 16 digs and 10 block assists. In their final match of the tournament, Central Oklahoma was defeated by Missouri Western in three games (15-10, 15-7, 15-6). "We didn't play well Saturday," said Central Oklahoma Volleyball Coach Mark Herrin. "We were a little flat, but I think that was du to
fatigue. We came off the game with Drury, and then we had to turn around and play Missouri Western," said Herrin "We are still in good shape for the Lone Star Conference tournament," said Herrin. Texas Woman's has clenched first in the North Div., said Herrin. The Bronchos have a Conference record of 5-3, with a season record of 21-8. "We have to win one more to get second place and secure a home opener against the third place team in the South Div.," said Herrin. The Bronchos continue their drive toward the championship, when they face Henderson State at 7 p.m. Thursday in Arkadelphia, Ark.

Vista editor thrown out of concert, leaves no Stone unturned By Sandi Craig Managing Editor
F
or one brief, exhilarating moment I was backstage at the Stones' concert last week, until the security escorted me out of the stadium. I'll try not to babble on. I finally managed to get an "official press pass" to The Rolling Stones Bridges to Babylon Tour '97-98, after cutting through miles of "red tape" by calling every single human being involved with the concert tour, I got off the shuttle at the Oklahoma Memorial Stadium and worked my way through the maze of generations, trying to get from Gate 1 to Gate 44. The crowd ran the gamut from the potbellied, fiftyish guy with the salt and pepper ponytail, left over from the 70s, to the Nine-Inch Nails' fan. After dodging beer bottles, bodies, buses, limos, and flyers shoved in my face announcing "the end of time," I finally arrived at Gate 44, where the security guard said, "The guy left a few minutes ago" with my press pass. After convincing him I was a 'egitimate member of the press, he said, 'Go ahead." Sheryl Crow was belting out one of her songs and I was anxious to find my seat. I was almost on stage with Crow befc -e I realized I had taken a wrong turn. I could have walked on stage, since I was

on the ramp that went to the stage area— about 20 yards from the performance. I decided that wouldn't be such a great idea, because I didn't really feel like spending the night in jail. "What are you doing back here?" said a deep voice behind me, drowning out the music. "You can't be back here," said the security guard, who looked like he had been injected with massive doses of hormones. Then he threw me out of the stadium. Back to square one. I went to a couple of gates that were still flooded with hundreds of people waiting to get in. No luck. I found a short line and waited. When I got to the entrance and explained what happened to a woman in her 50s, she took pity on me and let me in. After making my way through a security system that was worthy of Fort Knox, I then rode the elevator to the pressbox. There was already a handful of
people there (trying to avoid nosebleeds) as they watched the concert from this level. I was in! I looked out over the 60,000-plus crowd and could see the stage and backstage areas through a windowed wall directly in front of me. The sound was muffled, so I opened the window. I was getting into Sheryl Crow's "All I Wanna Do" when a guy came up and sat beside me. "Are you a member of the press?" I asked. He said that he was a tour promoter. I promised him wouldn't divulge his name—he said he could lose his job. We talked and he shared interesting trivia about Mick and The Rolling Stones. Did you know Mick does sprints right before every concert? A trainer also
travels with him. Also, Mick is going to be the father of Jerry Hall's baby. I sat in the darkness, heard tales of the Stones and enjoyed the performance of a lifetime. The dazzling fireworks and sparkling glitter spewed out over the crowd as the Stones sang "Brown Sugar" It was a visual feast for the eyes, with cameras flashing and lighters flickering in a sea of Stone(d) fans. The Bridges to Babylon is symbolic of The Rolling Stones crossing the bridge to reach out to yet another generation, captivating them, and then going back to enthrall their original and most loyal fans. After the concert I told the promoter I wanted to buy a program, and he said he thought he had one for me. He left and came back with a program and an "Event Crew" sweatshirt, which he generously gave me. It had been an evening I would remember forever and talk about for days, as many friends would agree. I've had several people say they heard about me getting thrown out of the concert. Some people say I haven't been normal (whatever that is) since the concert—all I can say is "I was high (my seating position) at a Stones' concert. Smoke rises you know. It was an evening of mind-altering music, spectacular fireworks and a dazzling lighting extravaganza and a Jumpin' Jack Flashing Event.

Coffeehouse singer, musician aspires to become writer By Steven E. Wedel Staff Writer
"My first aspiration was to be an actress who would sing and dance. I ended up being a public musician and a closet writer." Melanie Tucker is using her skill as a musician to pry open the door of her closet and bring her writing into the open. Tucker is a junior journalism major, who transferred to UCO from Oklahoma City Community College (OKCCC) this semester. "Some people in my family wrote for big papers," Tucker said. "I'm hoping I inherited some good DNA for writing." She began her career as a writer when she was only 10 years old. "I would write these terrible chapters of what were basically Nancy Drew stories, but I'd change all the names and the clues," she said. "Then I'd send them to my aunt in New York City. She'd grade them and tell me how wonderful they
were. I realized later "The last just how terrible they couple of years were." I've taken to But writing isn't the playing more only talent in the coffee houses Tucker family. and bookstores "I have six brothers because I got and sisters," Tucker tired of drunk said. guys hitting on "I have a twin me." brother.

and play Pink Floyd afterwards. Just to kind of jar the audience." It was music that first drew Tucker back into academic life. "I was initially a music major," she said. "But I really hated music theory—I mean hated it with a passion. So I got into journalism." Tucker chose to come to UCO from OKCCC for the same reasons a lot of other students choose UCO. "It's close to home and it's affordable," she said. "And a lot of my friends from OKCCC are here." Tucker's ambitions have changed. She no longer thinks so much about being an actress, though her goals are still in the entertainment field. "I'd like to cut a great CD and write one incredibly good novel," she said. To see Tucker perform before she cuts that hit CD, check the Oklahoma Gazette for upcoming dates at such places as The Grateful Bean, Borders Books, and The Red Cup.
International Week showcases cultural div ersity at UCO By Jim Hulsey Staff Writer
T
his week, UCO activities have been designated as International Week, giving international clubs a chance to showcase their cultures. "Ten percent of the UCO student population is made up of international students," said Dr. Ronald Paddack, Director of International Student Services. That's why this weeks' celebrations are important to UCO students, faculty, staff and the general public of Edmond, said Paddack.
A Speaker's Forum will feature a different country each year. This year's forum is on India. The forum begins at 11 a.m. in the Troy Smith Lecture Hall in the Business Administration Building. UCO Indian students will give their perspectives on different topics pertaining to Indian society, history, culture, philosophy and the political system. A question and answer period will follow, said Dr. Tomas de los Santos, associate professor of economics. Thursday, activities will continue at 9 a.m. with the Third Annual International Essay Contest. International students will submit essays describing their experiences
in Oklahoma. The essay competition will be in the Pegasus Theater in the Liberal Arts Building. The winner will be announced during the Friday activities. Friday, Nov. 7, international students will set up display tables in the University Center, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to display arts and crafts, videos and pictures that represent their country. Entertainment and style shows featuring the representing countries, will be 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. in Constitution Hall of the University Center.

Alternative routes wise for avoiding road construction By Billy Dry, Ill Student Writer

Altered petition causes controversy By Phillip Roder Staff Writer A petition started by Murdaugh Hall residents to show support for a former UCO employee is stirring up a kettle of controversy. There were 114 out of 160 students who signed a petition to show their support for Eva Scott, the area coordinator of Murdaugh Hall who was released from her duties on Oct. 16. The petition stated "I feel that Ms. Scott was an excellent Head Resident and was vary (sic) helpful in assisting me when I needed help." Some students showed concern at the Murdaugh Hall student meeting on Oct. 23, because an additional page was added to the petition after all the signatures were obtained, said Krista Yenter, Murdaugh Hall president. Students are upset because the attachment stated they demand answers and are planning to protest, she said. That wasn't what the people signing the petition said at all, said Tewfic Kidess, Resident Hall Association (RHA), president. They simply stated
that Ms. Scott was a good person, he said. The people who signed the petition do not agree with the cover sheet or any additions to the petition after they signed it, Kidess said. "The petition is not endorsed by the RHA," said Kidess. "The Murdaugh Hall government also doesn't endorse the petition." "It was started by the students and not the government," said Yenter. Charles Bradley said he was the person who added the cover sheet, and that it was only a cover sheet. Bradley said "the cover sheet wasn't meant to mislead anyone, and didn't express the view of the people who signed the petition." "The whole thing was a miscommunication," he said. The petition was delivered to the vice presidents office and the Human Resourses office by Bradley Oct. 22, he said. No one from the Vice President's office or the Human Resourses office were available for comment at this time.
