Keating addresses youth issues during conference at UCO By Steven E. Wedel Staff Writer
O
klahoma Governor Frank Keating delivered the keynote address at the first Oklahoma Summit held on the campus of UCO on Nov. 12-13. The summit is the result of the President's Summit for America's Future, held last April in Philadelphia. A delegation of Oklahomans, led by the governor and his wife, attended the President's Summit and are now working to implement the ideas from the national summit in Oklahoma. Keating said the Oklahoma summit is one of the first state summits to take place since the national meeting. "We went with the purpose of discussing with other Americans the issue of our adult role in caring for children at risk," Keating said in a private interview. "We addressed the challenge of 15 million young people who were at risk to school drop out, gang membership, teen pregnancy and inadequate education." "What concerned me was the lack of a spiritual focus in much of this," Keating said. "I think to give young people an understanding of their role in the world you have to imbue in them the appreciation that they are special assets, special children of God, who have obligations and responsibilities to do well and to be good. "We have that focus here," Keating said of the Oklahoma Summit. "We have a number of religious leaders of all denominations that are participating in our summit." Keating said he thought the organizers of the national summit realized they were soft on the moral and religious issues and harder on the classic social service

response. The governor said he hopes there will be more of a focus on the moral aspects of education, and pointed to recent events as an example of what he meant. "We had the two boys that murdered the girl in Little Axe," Keating said. "I had three teachers come to me, tearyeyed, saying they had been told they could not discuss moral issues in their
class. I said 'I could see you not talking about things that are strictly Christian or denominational, but to talk about civic virtue, to be a righteous citizen, that's your obligation as teachers.' I think that has to be a focus in this (summit)." During his keynote address at Wednesday's luncheon, Keating said the main goal of those involved in the summit is to find 25,000 volunteers who
are willing to mentor kids in the at-risk category. "Our children need to be tougher, smarter and better educated," Keating said. "And they need to be moral." He said he believed a mentoring program would serve to help young people resist the temptations of drugs, gangs and immoral activity, while providing a caring person to fill the role of an absent parent or sibling. "A society that's really a society must be a moral society where all of us understand our obligations and responsibilities," Keating said. The young people who will be helped by the mentoring program are a part of our society's future, Keating added. He said it is vital they are educated beyond the usual reading, writing and arithmetic and must learn to be moral individuals who understand and embrace their potential. "Every single person has an opportunity and an obligation to be somebody," Keating said near the end of his address. He closed his speech by calling on everyone present to take concrete action toward addressing the problems facing young people in Oklahoma today. Also speaking at the summit were authors Clifton Taulbert and Robert Fulghum, former University of Oklahoma and New Orleans Saints football player Jimmy Rogers, political commentator and attorney Burns Hargis, First Lady Cathy Keating and several other speakers.

acing a plummeting enrollment, UCO President Roger Webb recently told faculty that the university has to be marketed as an inviting alternative to all potential students. But how does UCO market itself as a distinguished upper-education institution when it promotes policies which make it resemble a high school with ash trays? Specifically, how can UCO be taken seriously when tenured professors dock students 10 or more grade points for being late or limit students to a few absences before assigning failing grades. Some instructors say "docking points" for tardy attendance is necessary because they are teaching "discipline." Yet students claim they are being unfairly punished for having enough discipline to take control of their own schedules. Savvy students have recognized that they are paying teachers salaries when they pay the bills for their own education. They note that being employers and consumers, they should be allowed to come and go as they please. Clearly, UCO professors' focus should be centered on providing instruction while shaping classes into ones which are as inviting as possible. Where does punishing students for being a few minutes late to class or giving them failing grades because they choose to pass up a few lectures fit into that focus? On

Webb denies connection between faculty senate issues and Jacob's resignation
/
feel that I must write in order to correct a serious misimpression created by your article on Dr. Jacob's resignation as Academic Vice President. Clyde Jacob has been an important part of the leadership of this university for many years. After more than a decade as its chief academic official, he expressed to me some months ago a desire to find a new role at UCO. I was extremely pleased that he was willing to remain a part of my administration, because his friendship and support
have already been enormously helpful to me. Dr. Jacob's resignation as our Academic Vice President has no connection whatever to the issues over which he and the Faculty Senate had been debating. Healthy debate over such issues is inherent in a dynamic university community. I would have gladly stated this to your reporter had he not called while I was en route to a Regent's meeting more than three hours from the campus. —W. Roger Webb UCO president
Reader criticizes portrayal of Muslim culture
T
he international night is an event of celebration for the international students as well as for Americans whose knowledge of anything un-American is sometimes like a foreigner picturing life in America from the perspective of Tay Watch.' The event like previous years fell short of upholding a realistic view of culture in Muslim countries. Culture in some societies is not as black and white as the West puts it. Sometimes it does not have a separable element per se form the total experience of a people. It becomes totally impossible to piece the cultural part out of the whole pie. It is unjust to try to portray certain people as having a 'culture' which the people in those countries do not recognize as their own. Islam is such an ideology where all cultural,
regional or even racial differences assimilate into one culture, Islam. That is why to Muslims, the word 'culture' does not carry the western secular meaning. The dancers on the International Night could not be representative of a society which condemned consumerization of femininity long before it happened in the West. Islam rejects the idea that femininity is inferior, entertaining or utilitarian. It gave women the rights that until 100 years ago were unknown to the world. The International office should work with student groups to give a clear understanding of culture rather than stereotypical presentations. —Shakib Ahsan UCO student

The Oklahoma native spoke to a group of UCO students and faculty gathered in the Pegasus Theater of the Liberal Arts Building Thursday morning. Askew talked about her experiences growing up in the eastern part of the state, her education and the experience of moving to New York, where she continued her education and began a teaching career. "I love to teach, but I made a decision to put that aside and write first. I may have to go back to teaching if I run out of money," she laughed. Askew's first fiction sale was to Nimrod, a magazine published in Tulsa. She sold several more pieces in magazines and journals before they were collected into one volume, with some

rompted by swastikas, racist graffiti, and anti-homosexual graffiti scratched into bathroom stalls in UCO dormitories, several UCO students have formed a committee to address racism and prejudice on campus. That committee is "Residents Against Discrimination and Prejudice," or RADS. It is a subcommittee of the Residence Hall Association (RHA), and operates from RHA funds. Its first formal meeting was Oct. 22. RADS was conceived by Tewfic Kidess, president of RHA. Kidess, a junior computing science major from Amman, Jordan, said he sees hostile graffiti as evidence that racism and prejudice are quietly harbored by many UCO students. "We started RADS because we had noticed there was a lot of prejudice among students in the (residence) halls," Kidess said. "We didn't experience any major problems, like fights, but (graffiti showed that a) problem was there." C.A.S.A., Inc.

"I'd like to see people being more considerate of those with different backgrounds — so those people won't be strange beings to them, but real people. "And I would really like to see the graffiti in the bathrooms cease," Kidess said. RADS meets in the Dogwood Room in Central Cafeteria, immediately following every RHA meeting. The committee invites all openminded UCO students to attend their meetings. "The only expectation we have for people who want to join this committee is to be open minded not only about racial issues, but also sexuality and cultural differences," said Kidess.

Oklahoma's First Lady announces release of book,
Our Governors' Mansions By Sandi Craig
Managing Editor
F
irst Lady Cathy Keating announced the publication of her new book at the first Oklahoma Summit held Nov. 12 at the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond. During a personal interview the First Lady discussed her new book, Our Governors' Mansions, while at UCO for the two-day conference. "It's a book where Architectural Digest meets People magazine," she said. "It's a fun read—it's not a cut and dried history book. It's filled with anecdotes, historical facts and architecture design." Keating said she organized the gathering of all the information and history of each mansion while working with first ladies or first spouses in every state to secure photographers to photograph each of the mansions. "We did this by mail, by phone, by fax machines, and every way
imaginable," she said. "There are over 300 color photographs, with eight pages designated to each state with mansions," she said. Keating said there are six states which don't have mansions, and the book tells why. "It's a book where, between the covers, you can have the commonality of the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and World War II. You have the echoes of footsteps of runaway slaves, ghosts and presidents," she said. Keating said she was surprised about how each house is different, and she thought the mansions would have the feeling of being a federal mansion similar to the White House. The mansions represent their locale and region, and each one offers something different that is unique to that particular mansion, she said. "Our Governors' Mansions" is available in bookstores nationwide.

Bronchos win LSC division title Playoff hopes come up short after succesful 9-2 season By Chad Willming Sports Editor Central Oklahoma claimed a share of the Lone Star Conference North Division title Saturday by defeating Northeastern 17-16 at Wantland Stadium. However, despite finishing the season at 9-2, the Bronchos will not make their second consecutive NCAA Division II playoff appearance. Out of the four teams selected from the West region the Bronchos finished with a sixth place ranking. After a 32-yard field goal gave NSU a 13-3 lead in the third quarter, Reggie Donner scored two touchdowns giving the Bronchos the lead for good. Donner's first score, a one-yard touchdown run on fourth and goal, capped a drive that saw the Bronchos convert UCO safety Jon Brazeal wraps up an NSU twice on fourth down cutting the lead to 13-10. ball carrier during Saturday's 17-16 victory.

third quarter when Donner scored his second touchdown of the game on a nine-yard run giving UCO a 17-13 lead. Northeastern cut the lead to one when Evan Luttrell made a 50-yard field goal, his third of the game, with 5:13 left in the fourth quarter. However, the Bronchos were able to run out the remaining five minutes to preserve the victory. Donner rushed for 85 yards on 21 carries while junior Ryan Logan had 38 yards rushing giving him 1,002 on the season. Central Oklahoma trailed early after NSU scored on a 40yard field goal and a Damian Everette 2-yard touchdown run in the first quarter gave the Redman a 10-0 lead. With the win the Bronchos improved their record to 9-2 overall, 6-2, in the LSC, and 5-1 in the north division. Southwestern earned a share of the north division title by defeating Harding 42-33. Both the Bronchos and Southwestern finished the season with 5-1 division records.
UCO volleyball team ends season with loss to West Texas A&M The Central Oklahoma volleyball season came to a screeching halt Thursday, when the squad was defeated in three straight games (8-15,8-15,3-15) by West Texas A&M in the second round of the Lone Star Conference Tournament. The Bronchos earned their way to Canyon, Texas, by defeating the Eastern New Mexico Zias in three games
in Hamilton Field House to end the home season play. The Bronchos offense was led by Karyn Posey who landed eight kills out of 30 attempts. Central Oklahoma's defense was led by Adriana Crovador.Crovador made eight digs. Four-time Hitter of the Week, Kate O'Neill played her last game of her career at Central Oklahoma.
The middle Blocker will graduate this May with a degree in political science and public relations. The senior from Overland Park, Kan. landed five kills out of 12 attempts for a hitting average of .417.

Professors' manuals instruct college students nationwide By Colby Grieser Staff Writer
T
wo UCO professors have written a series of student writing manuals that are being used in universities all over the United States. Dr. Greg Scott, associate professor of political science and Dr. Stephen Garrison, chair of the English department collaborated on the five manuals that cover writing in several areas: history, philosophy, political science, sociology and business. The manuals, published by Prentice Hall, are designed to help students learn to write papers in their various aspects of study, said Scott. "I was spending a lot of time teaching students to write papers in my classes," he said. He decided to put together a manual of directions on how to write papers so he could spend more time teaching political science, said Scott. Several other disciplines of study didn't have writing manuals, so Scott and Garrison thought they were areas that needed attention as Ron Stinnett of The Crowd performs inside the UC Ballroom Friday night during well, said Garrison. the Battle of the Bands. The contest was won by Subroza who received a cash "All disciplines need to work on getting students to write," he prize for their efforts. (Staff photo by Bryan Terry) said. Garrison said he thought the manuals turned out well, and they've gotten positive feedback. But, three of the manuals have only been Political Science: Foundations for a Fifth Millennium which is being used at UCO as out for three weeks, so it's still too early to see how they'll be received, he said. well as other universities. The political science manual isused in over 100 colleges and universities Scott said he also plans to turn out two more manuals, one on criminal justice and throughout the country. They have already written a second edition to the manual, and the other on psychology. He said he will collaborate with UCO professor Dr. Jill Scott it will be published soon, he said. on the psychology manual. Scott said he has also written a textbook that was published last year called
