Lest we forget Veterans' Day forgotten at UCO?
T
he eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. 1918, Armistice Day— the day World War I ended. Veteran's Day, November 11, has since been observed in most communities in Great Britain, France and the U.S. But at UCO all's quiet on the western front this year.
COMMENTARY The UCO '97-'98 calendar doesn't even list Veteran's Day. Patrick Farrimond of the office of StudentActivities said nothing was scheduled to commemorate the day at UCO. And although Edmond city offices will be closed, neither the city nor Edmond's Chamber of Commerce have commemorations scheduled, said Cathy Williams-White, director of the Edmond Convention and Visitors Bureau. The only Edmond activity that is even remotely connected to the holiday involves the dedication of a railroad overpass on Waterloo Road. Capt. Jeffrey Malloy, assistant professor of military science, said the ROTC unit will only participate in two events this year — both off campus. It will provide a color guard for MetroChurch's Sunday services, honoring veterans on Nov. 9. At 6 a.m.
on Veteran's Day, the UCO ROTC students and staff will accompany the Edmond VFW in distributing American flags throughout the Edmond area. Later that evening, the ROTC and VFW will collect the flags. Master Sgt. Doug Hensley, UCO's Army ROTC training non–commissioned officer, said he contacted both the
Edmond mayor and city manager a couple of years ago to offer the services of UCO military studies students for any activity commemorating American veterans, but Edmond officials never requested the services. Otherwise, Linda Wright, UCO's veteran's affairs coordinator, could only say there are 531 veterans taking advantage of Veteran's Administration educational benefits. UCO and Edmond
apparently haven't always been this apathetic about Veteran's Day. Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president of student services and an army veteran, said he
remembered when UCO was more involved with it's veterans. During the Vietnam War years, and even afterwards, Student Services and the Student Senate recognized UCO students who lost their lives in the conflict, said Ryan. A plaque listing the 37 names of those servicemen was placed in the Y-Chapel during a —By Jim Hulsey Veteran's Day ceremony in 1988. Staff Writer "Student activities were more involved back then. Why not now?" asked Ryan. Jim Hulsey is a decorated Vietnam Ken Young, UCO's director of veteran affairs, and a Vietnam veteran, War combat veteran. He served with the said UCO's President George Nigh and First Cavalry Division from May, 1966 Domino's Pizza sponsored a Veteran's to May, 1967.

Day Domino Tournament in the University Center in 1993. Twenty-four teams from Veteran Centers, Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion, from around the state competed for trophies and prize money. Nigh also established tournaments for veterans during his term as governor of Oklahoma. Nigh was good about having a UCO representative attend the Veteran's Day ceremonies at the Capitol each year, said Young. The owner of the Edmond Domino's franchise at the time, Linda Burgat, said she had received calls from veterans thanking her for their participation and telling her how much they enjoyed themselves. Former 9th District VFW Commander William Milam said he was aware of only three local events to commemorate the day this year. Two were in the Oklahoma City area—one at the 45th Infantry Division Museum at 36th and Martin Luther King Blvd. and the other at the Veteran's Memorial located just southeast of the State Capitol. Milam isn't impressed. "Veteran's are treated like second class citizens anymore," At least until the next war.

n 1990, Iraq invaded Kuwait. In 1992, the United States went to war with Iraq to protect our intrests in Kuwait. That mission was successful, or was it? Sanctions were imposed upon Iraq to prevent their advance in developing weapons of mass destruction. The U.S. is the reason that Iraq has the technology to produce those weapons in the first place. After all, we supported Iraq in the Iran-Iraq war. We have given them the ability and knowledge to produce weapons of mass destruction. We have enabled Hussein's regime to become what it is today, and now he wants more. Five years after the Gulf War, Hussein is refusing to allow U.S. inspectors into the plants, and has disconnected the U.N.'s cameras that were monitoring the plants. Iraq said that U.S. inspectors are deliberatly not giving Iraq a clean report to prolong sanctions imposed upon them. How could the reports of the U.S. inspectors be different from the other countries reports? The U.N. would surely take the U.S. inspectors off the mission, if they showed to be prejudiced against Iraq. Why for a minute should the U.N. allow this behavior? It is only showing Hussein that the U.N. will let him try to throw his authority around, and not be punished for it. If the U.N. continues, he will inevitably want more control. At the time he is awarded more control, he will probably pull out a stockpile of weapons he has hidden in a secret location, waiting for the time when he could use them. Who is really in control here?

Reader questions fairness of Food Court article am writing in regards to the story you wrote in the Nov. 4 issue of The Vista. I thought the investigation you did into the food court was quite humorous. Why didn't you check all of the food facilities on campus? Many times I would watch food come over from Central Cafeteria to the University Center via the UC dock in the floor of a dusty van, uncovered, only to be loaded upon racks, uncovered. Then the food in question (still uncovered) would sit next to a large trash dumpster complete with a generous quantity of flies. The flies feasted while the rest of the food was taken upsatirs or unloaded from the floor of the van. Occasionally, the roils would be surrounded by a plastic bag but the rest of • the pastries and other items would be uncovered. I remember jokes being made about whether food service was going to charge extra for the "crunchies" on top. This was an everyday event. When I asked a food service worker how they could serve this food to the public, they just smiled and said, "They won't give us covers because they are too
/
expensive." When I brought it to the attention of a supervisor, "No comment" was made. Would the same officials from the University's Central Cafeteria and Human Environmental Sciences Department give the same response to UCO food service actions? What about the guy from the State Department, does he want the cream pies served at above 45-degrees? (Not to mention what about all of the melting candy and food products in the Union Express, is it hazardous?) Hazel Banks, from Central Cafeteria was quoted as saying "any amount of time that food is left uncovered is dangerous." Why then did Central Cafeteria leave their food uncovered? For all I know it may still be being delivered that way today. If you don't believe me, ask anyone who has seen the deliveries being made to the UC docks. Let's be fair when investigating stories. Shouldn't we investigate our own backyard before we go condemning others?

Quiet merger puts Creative Studies department's future in question By Mark A. Schneberger Staff Writer
U
CO's Creative Studies Department may soon cease to exist, and instead may be permanently merged into the English department, UCO professors warned last week. And the merger may be done behind closed doors, without the N input of department chairpersons or their faculty. Dr. Roberta Sloan, president of the Faculty Senate and Chairperson for UCO's Theatre department said that Vice President of Academic affairs Clyde Jacob seems to have already taken steps toward eliminating the program. He did so by temporarily merging Creative Studies into the English department, without notifying the proper department heads of his intentions, she said. "The courses went (to Jacob) as two separate departments, but they came back under one," Sloan said. "It takes so long to create a department ... it has to be approved on every level by everybody. And if it takes that long to get it put together, how can you start collapsing (a department) without any approval whatsoever" and without going through the proper process. Sloan made her remarks Nov. 6, as part of UCO's regular Faculty Senate meeting. There, she hinted that Jacob's actions came suspiciously close to the time Creative Studies Chairperson Dr. Lynette Wert entered a year-long sabbatical. She asserted that no one was made formally aware that the department would be merged with another. "I discussed this with President Webb, particularly in terms of strategic planning. I said if everything is supposed to be on the table and this is supposed to be a time of openness, why is this happening?" said Sloan. "I could tell that he was not happy it happened." Jacob oversees curriculum
decisions for UCO. He has the authority to approve changes. Jacob admitted that he merged the creative studies department into the English department. He would not say if he notified the appropriate department heads. However, he noted that no decision has been made on the permanence of the Creative Studies program. Though he
would not say if he expected the program to return next year. "I'm not in a position to comment on that. But I can tell you that people are reading a little too much into" the idea that the program will not return. Jacob's actions have led many to speculate that UCO officials are preparing to rid the University of the program altogether.
A staff member noted that faculty and department heads may be sifting through rumors about the fate of the Creative Studies Program, but only because Jacob has not been clear in describing his intentions. "There are rumors that (Creative Studies) will be permanently merged

Campus radio station serves up new alternative rock By Colby Grieser Staff Writer
M
any people may not be aware that UCO has an alternative radio station. Everyone can tune in to 99.9 FM KUCO to hear the latest in alternative rock. The station has been at UCO since 1980 and became an alternative station six years ago because no other station in Oklahoma had that format at that time, said Keith Swezey, assistant professor of communication. The station only transmits as far as the outer borders of the campus because there aren't enough frequencies to broadcast in Oklahoma City, he said. The Federal Communications Commission allows them to set up transmitters on campus, but this is the only place they are allowed to broadcast,
said Swezey. "Our purpose is to provide broadcasting students with the opportunity to get on-air experience," said Beth Moxley, KUCO's music director. All the D.J.s are students in the radio participation class. The class is worth one credit hour and the students work one four hour shift every week on the air. "It's a great opportunity to learn. The students go on the air live, and when they make mistakes, they learn from them," said Swezey. The music director for the station receives several CDs every day and chooses which ones will go on the air.
"We're a testing ground for new music ... college radio decides what's hot, and bigger stations pick up on that," said Moxley. Moxley reports to the College Music Journal on a regular basis and keeps up with their lists of upcoming bands. After they decide what to play, they enter the selections into a computerized log. The log tells what and
when certain songs will play.
automated system. They also have short news casts that are written by broadcast students. KUCO has given students the opportunity for experience that has helped them get jobs on other radio stations, said Swezey. "It helps them get their foot in the door, and enables them to get real world experience," he said. When one student graduated, he immediately got a job at an Altus, Okla. radio station as program director. Another was able to land a job at the KATT, an Oklahoma City radio station, said Swezey.
The station is on the air 24 hours a day, For now, KUCO plans on remaining a seven days a week; and when D.J.s aren't campus radio station and doesn't intend on the air, the station is run by an on expanding in the future, he said.
CHANGES Continued from Page 3 together with the English department," said English Department Chairperson Stephen Garrison. "But Vice President Jacob has not told me anything specifically about the merger. He's been that way with everyone else that I know of. So I really don't know what's in the works." Garrison was recently appointed as temporary chairperson for the Creative Studies department. He said until
official word is made, he will plan for Wert to return to her post and for both departments to be separate. Calls to Liberal Arts Dean Clif' Warren were not returned by press time. Results of the merger can be seen in the 1998 version of UCO's spring course schedule. In it, there is no listing for the Creative Studies Department. All program courses are listed under the English Department.

Last semester, however, Creative Studies courses were named under the Department of Creative Studies. Sloan said the merger may well be only a temporary measure, but Jacob's actions leave room for interpretation.

In-line skating class offers fun, fitness By Phillip Roder
Staff Writer
M
ost people don't associate roller skating with games like basketball and hockey, but UCO's in-line skating course offers the best of both worlds. "The main goal of the class is to achieve physical fitness, and have fun while doing it," said Dr. Hanna Hofmann, adjunct instructor for the health and physical education department. In-line skating offers a good cardiovascular workout and muscular fitness, she said. Anyone who enrolls in the class needs to be in good physical condition, because it is strenuous on the back and knees, she said. The gym size and amount of equipment limit the number of students who can enroll to 30, she said. There will be five classes offered this spring, including one night class, she said. "I would like to see the class divide into beginners and advanced in the future.
UCO students participate in Dr. Hanna Hofmann's in-line skating class in Wantland Hall, Wednesday. This is the second semester the class has been offered. (Staff photo by Bryan Terry) Right now we have people who are advanced in the class, and they have to wait for the beginners to catch up to their performance before they get to move on to new things," Hofmann said.

students learn how to interact with each other as individuals and as a team, she said. "At first the class teaches the basic moves such as: standing, starting, and stopping which includes falling," Hofmann said.
"The next step is learning how to skate forward and backwards," she said. "After the class has grasped the concept of these things, then we move on to playing sports such as: basketball and hockey," she said. "The class doesn't compete in competitions, although there are some universities that have teams and hold competitions," she said. There have only been two injuries in the class, which were strained knees, she said. "This class is for anyone who has always wanted to learn how to in-line skate, but doesn't want to make the investment until they know if they like it or not," said Hofmann "The price of in-line skates also holds some people back, because they are expensive." Hofmann added that the department is looking for a certified in-line skating instructor. Anyone who is qualified should contact Dr. Hofmann at 341-2980, EXT. 5234.

Students experience government during mock legislature By Jim Hulsey Staff Writer
F
our UCO students were recognized for their contribution to this year's Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature at the Oklahoma State Capitol, where students learned firsthand about the legislative process and problems of state government. Corey Smith, UCO junior, political science - major, placed second in undergraduate Moot Court competition. Smith has been involved with the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature for two years, but this was the first year she was involved in the competition.
Smith said she had to argue a fictitious case for the respondent, a Jehovah's Witness woman, who in her third trimester of pregnancy, was involved in an automobile accident. She refused a blood transfusion to save the life of her unborn child, because of her religious beliefs. Smith argued the woman's right to privacy, due process of law, and her freedom of religion rights. UCO's Eric Partridge, a sophomore political science major, and Claire Castles, freshman political science major, were semi-finalists in Moot Court proceedings. Moot Court participants argue cases before a panel of student Supreme Court Justices.
The Court also hears test cases, based on Oklahoma law, brought by a member of the organization, said Loree Schrank, UCO senior of political science and public relations director of UCO's Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature. Johnathan Dobbs, a junior UCO Business Administration major, placed third for best legislation for his debate to "Strengthen Divorce Laws." Dobbs has been an active participant in Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature for three years. He began his involvement in Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature while a political science major at Rose State. This is the first time he placed in competition.
Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature is a student organization established in 1968. It provides students an opportunity to learn about the legislative process and practical problems of state government by promoting development of student legislators and student court attorneys. Each year, institutions of higher education in Oklahoma are invited to send delegates to the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature. The sessions convene for five days each semester in the chambers of the Senate, House and Supreme Court of the State of Oklahoma. For more information contact Dr. Chris Markwood at 341-2980, Ext. 5522 or Janet Nicholas at 732-0530.
English department intersession classes explore unique topics By Steven E. Wedel Staff Writer

Financial aid web site answers common questions By Penny Hubbard Student Writer Students who are tired of standing in line at the financial aid counter may now find the answer to many of their questions by going on line. Sallie Mae, a source of financing for higher education, introduced a course on their web site in August for students with questions concerning the financial aid
process. "The features of our newly enhanced web site are geared directly to college students and others involved in the financial aid process," said Jane Trevisan, a vice president at Sallie Mae. Financial Aid 101 contains five lessons on issues related to financial aid. What is Financial Aid and How Do I Qualify are just a few of the questions that can be answered by visiting the web
site. Each lesson gives information for that specific topic. For example, in Lesson Five,What do I do if I need a loan? users are told the difference between Stafford, PLUS, and private loans and what to look for in a lender. The web site offers more than just the financial aid learning course. Students who are current borrowers can check their account status and their total
loan amount. Students can also use a calculator on the site to estimate their borrowing needs or make a monthly budget. Although the financial aid department is not allowed to promote any one lender to students, they do encourage students to use any means available to them to become informed about the financial aid process, said Sheila Fugett, director of financial aid.
Workshop speaker offers study tips to students By Penny Hubbard Student Writer
T
he semester is more than halfway over, but if your grades aren't what they should be, you still have time to do something about it. Dr. Jeffrey Hale, Director of Student Life at the University of Oklahoma, spoke to students about improving their school performance at a study skills workshop Oct. 23 at the UCO University Center. According to Hale, it is never too late to improve your study skills. "If you start the day with a decent attitude, you've got a
Does Anybody Care?
chance," said Hale. During the workshop, students were given a short test, The Learning and Study Strategies Inventory, to discover the strengths and weaknesses of their study habits. Students also brainstormed to get ideas of what qualities a successful student should have. According to Hale, the number one thing employers are looking for in college graduates is the ability to communicate, both written and oral. The other things potential employers look for are your knowledge of computers and technology and being able to think critically. If you think that an "A" in
accounting is going to get you that job, you're wrong," Hale said. Hale also offered four tips anyone can do to better their performance. Students should: • Never miss another class. • Never go to class unprepared • If you don't have a study group for each class , find one • Be on a first name basis with your professors. Hale also stressed the importance of being focused on your goals and being disciplined enough to achieve them. School has to be a priority or you'll never be as successful as you potentially can be," Hale said.

English Literature class plans trip to Great Britain By Phillip Roder
Staff Writer UCO English Professor, Allen Rice will take his English Literature class on a "Bard's eye view of England." Rice said, "Touring Great Britain: A Bard's eye view" will depart on May 17 and return on June 7. The tour will cover Whales, Scotland, Ireland, and England. "Some of the points of interest on the tour will include: The Tower of London, where Richard III killed his two nephews and buried their bodies; The Globe theater, where Shakespearean
plays are performed; and Henry VIII's Hampton Court, where there is a maze constructed of shrubs," Rice said. "The tour will focus on Richard III, and Henry VIII, but there will be a lot of times that the tourists can venture off to explore. This may be the only time in some of these people's lives that they see these places. I want them to get out and see things in case they never go back to Europe," he said. "The trip is not limited to students in the class, anyone can go who wishes, they don't even have to be a student at UCO," he said. .
"We would like to get 16 or more people for the trip, because the price reduces with the more people who sign up. The cost of the trip is approximately $2800, at this time," he said. Anyone wishing to go must pay a $100, non refundable deposit by the first of December, which will be deducted from the total cost of the trip, he said. The only out of pocket expense will be for some lunches and leisure time activities," Rice said. There will be an informational meeting on Nov. 24, at 7 p.m. in the Liberal Arts Building, room 136, Rice said.
