Friendships form through foreign exchange By Telannia Hytche Staff Writer

uring a week-long visit to Oklahoma, five Chinese delegates, the Edmond mayor, director of Oklahoma commerce, UCO professors and students, discussed "Northeast China and Oklahoma Economic Cooperations" Wednesday afternoon in the Liberal Arts Building reception room. "The more exchange, the more understanding from each other," said Haisheng Liu, vice mayor of Daqing Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries. Daqing is China's oil capital. The delegates discussed the possiblities of exchange between Oklahoma and Northeast China. The delegates met with Bob Rudkin, mayor of Edmond, and Ronald L. Wilson, director of Oklahoma Chambers of Commerce, to exchange ideas for the development of economic trade, specifically petroleum. The other four delegates included Shouzheng Yang, chairman of Northeast Asian Association and former Chinese ambassador to the Soviet Union; Qing Wan, deputy director of Northeast Asian Association; Guifu Qiu, vice president of Daquing Petrochemical Complex; and Zhizhong Yu, division director of Daqing Foreign Affairs Office. Yang extended an invitation to Wilson and Rudkin to attend their first conference next year. Yang suggested China and Oklahoma exhange 100 high school graduates each year for college studies. Fifty Chinese students will come to

Since UCO is funded by the state, a discussion with the state and higher regents will have to take place to assess the possibilites, said Dr. Byung Jung, assistant professor of history and geography. As a part of the week of events, the delegates were greeted by UCO President George Nigh followed by a campus tour on Monday.
Yang lectured on China-U.S. relations in the Post-Cold War World to over 200 UCO students, professors and faculty Wednesday morning in the Pegasus Theatre.. The major tasks of the China Association for the Promotion of International Texhnological and Economic Coperation are: 'Conduct research in developing economic and technological industries; 'Provide information on the economy,

hen most of us see something we think is wrong, we don't do anything about it. Or worse yet, we grumble about it, but we seldom take action. Then we wonder why things are so bad. Sometimes we have the attitude that one person can't make a difference. If everyone has this attitude—that someone else will take care of it—then nothing would ever get done. But there are exceptions. On Page 7 is a story of two women who decided they could make a difference. And they have. They have set their priorities by what they value most—helping people. When we set our priorities and ask ourselves "what is important to me?" then we can overcome almost any obstacle. A lot of people don't try to change things because they think the project is too overwhelming. But when we underestimate ourselves, we do a disservice not only to ourselves, but all the people who might've been touched by the result of our action. If we start by thinking we can do something, rather than thinking we can't, then our chances of succeeding are greater. Believing is half of being. ll You have the power to change things, to make a difference.

All opinions are not equal...
M
r. Sellers' argument that his opinion is as valuable as any other is fundamentally flawed. If all opinions were of equal value then there would be no need for experts. Can you imagine an insanity defense in a criminal trial calling an accountant or a salesperson as its expert witness concerning the mental state of the defendant? I don't think so. The fact is that society values experts because of their
educated, informed opinions. (And conversely, society doesn't value opinions that are uneducated and uninformed.) Mr. Sellers' contention that homosexuality is a "conscious choice" also doesn't hold up under scrutiny. While social scientists and other experts in the area of sexuality may disagree as to whether homosexuality is caused by biological or environmental/social factors or a combination of the two, most do
agree that homosexuality isn't a conscious choice. As a result, the following question must be asked: What should be more valued—an informed opinion based on years of study or an irrational one based on misinformation and stereotypes? Just because someone has an opinion doesn't mean that it has the intrinsic worth of all others. —Charles Pruett UCO student

LETTERS
UCO staff members respond to controversial letter A
s a married, heterosexual, Christian, non-white parent, I am constantly amazed by the intolerance displayed by seemingly intelligent people. The perception that a person would "choose" to be homosexual borders on absurd. Why would anyone choose to be hated, ridiculed, and in some instances beaten and even murdered, simply because of who they love? For the information of Jon Sellers, God not only created Adam and Eve, he also created Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Aaron Copland, Howard Ashman (composer of the musical score to Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" and "The Little
W
ay to go Jon Sellers! It is about time a true Christian spoke up. It is high time that America return to the glory of our Christian past. The level of tolerance has grown far to great in our country. Christians are losing control of America and this has resulted in the near fall of the old American society! The only way to save America is to have the government and society controlled by people like Jon Sellers.
Mermaid"), Rock Hudson, Errol Flynn, Raymond Burr, Elton John, Greg Louganis, Billie Jean King, Martina Navratilova, Tennessee Williams, Truman Capote, Melissa Etheridge, and Rita Mae Brown, among many others, all of whom are/where homosexual. These people achieved greatness through gifts from God – acting, athletic, writing, and musical ability. Why in the world would God grant them the ability t6 make people laugh, cry, feel absolute joy...and then condemn them to hell? Your guess, Mr. Sellers, is as good as mine. How a person could listen to Aaron Copland's "Appalachian Spring" and not accept that
God gave this man a gift is unthinkable to me. Stating that you do not hate anyone is well and good, but many people take the same intolerance that you are talking about and go to the extreme. It is disturbing that someone could injure or kill a homosexual "in God's name." And make no mistake about it – it happens nearly every day, in cities across America. Yet, still Mr. Sellers says we have too much tolerance in our society. This is an odd contradiction, don't you think? Also, as a Native American – please don't refer to me as "your sister"–I was highly
offended by the statement that the prejudice and bigotry aimed at homosexuals underscores what my ancestors endured. Discrimination is discrimination, no matter who is the victim. Mr. Sellers certainly has a right to his opinion, as I do. But remember, "judge no lest ye be judged." I would also suggest he think about the verse, "Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, that you do unto me," and ask himself what it truly means.
True Christians that take the word of God as it is told to them and to keep all outside opinions and internal thought at a minimum. ,Jon Sellers and his fellow Christians will smile as all non-true-Christian citizens are sent to camps or out of the country. The saving of some lost souls will appear harsh and extreme. But it is needed if America is to be safe for Jon Sellers and his fellow Christians. Dark days must be coming as students
support a morally and ethically challenged president with the motivation of wanting money for school! In an America under the control of Christians no education will be needed as thinking will not be required. The Bible and other Christian approved readings will be the only books allowed. Jon Sellers is correct in sending a warning to all Christians on the fence. You might think religion is harmless, but it has knocked off billions of people in,
the past and Jon Sellers and his fellow true Christians will ensure that it claims the lives of billions in the future. Go forth you Christians and retake America. Turn back the clock to the glory days of our country when education was for the rich, slavery was a big business, women were property, and tolerance was reserved only for good Christians!

Students earn extra points, not pounds, with intersessions By Rhonda Bowden Student Writer
W
inter break—for the fainthearted it is a time for lying around, watching TV reruns and putting on unneeded pounds eating aunt Mary's fudge. But for the UCO student in need of elective credits or one interested in a special subject, it can be very productive.
"UCO's spring intersession schedule includes a wide variety of rich subjects designed to offer students a chance to explore unusual electives not normally offered during regular semesters," said Dr. Linda Norton, director of continuing education. Courses are available on all kinds of subjects, and some are applicable to just about any major, said Norton. Dress for Professionals is designed to
relate one's dress to career demands and successes for both men and women. Two classes will explore how the sexes converse: Gender Communication and Male and Female Communication. Many courses offer interesting information on more specific topics impacting several fields of study such as: Cultural Diversity, Youth Violence and The Single Parent Experience. Although popular, Norton cautions
Dripping faucet leads to University Center leak; contractor to replace tiles By Mary Reinauer Staff Writer
D
iners at Boatman's Landing in the University Center might have seen something new on the menu Nov.13—leaks. The leak, of the liquid variety, was caused when a worker left a faucet turned on in a custodial closet on the third floor, said Arthur Robinson, director of the University Center. Robinson said the main valve to the building was shut off the previous afternoon to allow for plumbing repairs. Someone was using the sink in the janitorial closet and
students against thinking that these classes are easy. "Intersession classes are hard because of the compression of time — more than a week's worth of study is normally required every day," said Norton. The Spring '97 Intersession is Dec. 16 through Jan. 10. Interested sudents are encouraged to enroll early as these classes fill quickly.
Trees, park areas to grace campus lawn
when water stopped coming from the faucet, they left without shutting it off. When the work was finished and the water main was turned back on at about 4:15 p.m., no one was around to notice the sink overflow, eventually soaking through to the hall in front of Boatman's Landing, he said. Robinson said that although ceiling tiles had to be replaced, there was no monetary loss associated. The tiles had been previously damaged by construction workers and the contractor was bound by the contract to replace them anyway. There was no other damage that he was aware of, he said.
As the new buildings at UCO near completion, attention is turning to trees. A landscaping contract in the amount of $428,000 was awarded to Landscape, Inc. Friday. The company will plant 550 trees and build eight small park areas. Additionally, the contract includes 20 benches, two basketball courts and a sand volleyball lot, said Jim Hurd who oversees campus construction. Lighting for the park areas is also included in the contract. Hurd said target completion date for the project is Feb. 1, 1997. This landscaping contract is the first of three scheduled for the next few months as part of the $54 million Master Plan project. Completion of all landscaping is scheduled for June, 1997. —By Gayleen Langthorn Managing Editor

Singing his way to success... UCO alumnus bitten by the opera bug By Joanna Owen-Clouston Staff Writer
A
UCO alumnus won first place at the District Metropolitan Opera Auditions held in Tulsa earlier this month. Clint Williams graduated from UCO with a master's degree in vocal music education last spring. He was one of four UCO students in the competition. Williams now has the opportunity to attend the regional competition Jan. 11 in Tulsa. The winner of that competition will go on to compete at the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Williams said he doesn't really remember when he became interested in opera but it was some time after high school. He said he was studying voice with a woman in Tulsa and she asked him to audition for the Tulsa Opera Choirs. "I started singing in the Tulsa opera choirs right after high school...I think I just got bitten," Williams said. He said most of his success is thanks to his voice teacher Pamela Green. For the district competition contestants had to submit five songs, one each in English, French, German and Italian, he said. Williams won $400 in the competition. Just enough, he said, to pay for plane fare and the cost of an audition in New York City in December.
He now teaches elementary music at Heritage Hall and high school choir at Bishop McGuinness. He also teaches private voice lessons at UCO. "I enjoy teaching...but I want to see what happens as I pursue a singing career," he said. "If nothing happens I would be perfectly happy teaching...but I don't want to be 45, 50 years old one day and say 'gosh, I wish I had tried that.'"

Obscure awards now easily accessible on campus By Lisa Tatum Staff Writer inding a scholarship is like a treasure hunt. You follow cryptic clues which lead you down unfamiliar roads in search of free money to finance your education. It can be a frustrating and time consuming journey. But now, thanks to two UCO students, there is a map to guide you to your buried treasure. Brochures providing step-by-step instructions on finding on-campus scholarships and financial aid were distributed across campus last week by the Student Services Office. The pamphlet guides students to sources of funding information found in campus offices, on the Internet and through a new on-campus scholarship catalog. UCO students, Stacy Thomas and Kari St Clair, developed the brochure as a concise and easy-to-follow instruction guide for students who may be unfamiliar with the scholarship and financial aid process. Thomas said students who think they can't afford to stay in school need to know that applying for funds is a simple process. Besides creating the brochure, the two special education majors used their knowledge of the scholarship and aid process to develop A Student's Guide to Scholarship & Financial Aid Information. Available for viewing in 12 campus locations, the guide is published in notebook-form and lists all known on-campus scholarships.
f
The notebook catalogs scholarships by the following categories: • Departmental • Freshman • Jr. College Transfer • All Areas of Study • On-Campus Activities Thomas and St Clair said creating the book became their first priority when they were hired as student advocates in the Student Services Office. They said their own grueling experience searching for scholarships convinced them that other students could benefit from a book that brought together all on-campus scholarships. The pair obtained and compiled all available scholarship information from each university department and foundation, as well as the scholarship office. The resulting notebook is almost three inches thick, said Thomas. Some of the scholarships are so obscure they get few applicants, she said, explaining that students who meet unusual criteria aren't always aware of the opportunities available to them. Examples of obscure scholarships might include one for displaced homemakers, one for women over the age of 30 or one that is available for the child of a firefighter or police officer killed in the line of duty. St Clair said they found scholarships that have gone without applicants for as long as two years; a fact she attributes to

Bronchos win first NCAA Division II postseason bid BLACKWATER DRAW, N. M. — The Central Oklahoma football team nailed down its first playoff bid in 11 years Saturday by defeating Eastern New Mexico 17-7 before a sparse crowd of 323 fans at Greyhound Stadium. The ninth-ranked Bronchos, 92, will host No. 11 Chadron State (Neb.) Saturday in Edmond. The matchup was announced Sunday morning. CSC won the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference and finished with a 9-1 record. The last time the Bronchos reached the postseason was in 1985 when they made the NAIA playoffs. "We're excited about being back in the playoffs and hopefully we can keep going for awhile," UCO coach Gary Howard said. "This team has worked extremely hard this season and we've played tough, hard-nosed football throughout the year." UCO's last roadblock on the road to the postseason came in the middle of the New Mexico landscape. The Bronchos fought the 35-

Now the fun begins .. . No. 9 Bronchos reversed history, earned this playoff berth
I
n recent years, Wantland Stadium has stood vacant on Saturdays in late November. While one of the Edmond high schools might play in the OSSAA playoffs Friday nights, the Bronchos stayed home and watched the NCAA Division II Football Playoffs from afar. They might have watched it on ESPN 2, the television cable channel. _ How times have changed!
All three Edmond high schools missed the playoffs by a mile, combining winning only four games combined. And they played each other. Meanwhile, Central Oklahoma reversed history by earning their first postseason berth since 1985. They reversed history by rebounding. •UCO finally conquered Texas A&M-Commerce this year.

He thinks solving the problems of the education system involves relocalization and teacher accountability. "We need to give school back to the community and have a mechanism in place that holds teachers accountable," said Nedbalek. He supports school vouchers and thinks teachers' unions prevent communities from firing ineffective teachers. He said we need better nutrition programs. "We sell soft drinks with caffeine and candy in schools, then wonder why students are wired. "We have lousy schools by choice," he said. The Natural Law Party thinks the tax system needs to be over hauled to make it "fairer," he said, by a flat tax of 19 percent for those who earn $25,500 or more. Nedbalek believes our drug problem can be solved by focusing on the supply-side. "If there isn't a demand for drugs then there isn't a problem and education lies at the feet of the problem." The Natural Law Party also believes the country is too dependent on fossil fuels and we should direct more attention to other sources of energy such as solar and wind power. The party supports campaign finance reform and believes candidates shouldn't accept money from outside their state or district.
Electoral voting system requires change
T
hroughout the 1996 presidential campaigns, one phrase reverberated among media, politicians and voters: "A vote for a third-party candidate is a wasted vote." An article in the Political Science Quarterly said the wasted vote theory can lead undecided or third-party-candidate supporters to cast votes for a major-party candidate. This type of voter behavior is known as sophisticated, strategic or tactical voting and is used regularly by politicians to sway votes. Dr. Louis Furmanski, chair of the UCO Political Science Department, said the political system in this country favors a two-party system which makes it difficult for a third party candidate to get elected. Candidates must have a majority of the electoral votes. Those who win the popular vote may not win the electoral vote. The American system of electoral voting was designed to protect the smaller states in a close election, said Furmanski. Third-party candidates do wi voting by pressuring major-party candidates to deal with th issues. For example, Perot forced the issue of balancing the budget into the limelight during the 1992 election, said Furmanski. In the 1996 election, President Clinton won 49 percent of the popular vote and 373 electoral votes. Dole received 41 percent of the popular vote and 140 electoral votes. Perot received 8 percent of the popular vote and no electoral votes. Other candidates won 1 percent of the popular vote. "We need to change our system of voting." said Furmanski, "The present system is not as democratic as it could be." 4 —

Fair serves Christian guitarist up holiday tO preach at final food, gifts By Telannia Hytche Staff Writer
"Sleigh bells will be ringing and carolers will be singing" at the first annual Christmas Extravaganza. Christmas Extravaganza is a holiday fair of Christmas items, entertainment and food. The Black Student Associtation (BSA) and Multicultrual Student Services will host the fair from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday in the Grand Ballroom of the University Center. "It's going to be a great opportunity for people to shop early for Christmas," said Sheneka Conley, BSA president. The Christmas Extravaganza consists of everything "from hand crafted items to skin care products." Various entertainment, including Ronne'l Walker, Miss Black UCO, will be performed throughout the day, beginning at 11 a.m. and ending at 5 p.m. Proceeds from the fair will buy eight underprivileged children an article of clothing, a toy and a stocking filled with goodies, said Conley. Admission is free to the public. Cost of items vary according to vendor. For information, call Conley at 341-2980, Ext. 2580.
athletic club meeting
For the last meeting of the semester, a Christian speaker will play his guitar and preach words from the Bible for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. The meeting will be at 9 p.m. Nov. 20 in Room 109 of the Hamilton Fieldhouse. The guest speaker, Rusty Hawkins, spoke last .year to the organization about Christianity. The non-denominational organization has been active since 1990. Russ Bishop, a former student, founded a UCO chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). Approximately 50 members meet each Wednesday to participate in various activities. Some of the activities include Bible study, speakers, and games. There is no membership application or obligations, said Jay Risner, president of FCA. "You do not have to be a collegiate athlete to join," he said. Athletes make up about 35 percent of the organization, said Risner. And most members have some type of athletic background, he said. The organization participates in volunteer work at the local and state level. FCA members volunteer at youth camps in the summer. The group will attend a retreat in the spring. For more information, contact Risner at 330-6113 or Mandi Caldwell at 341-2980, Ext. 4179.

Anyone who suspects someone of having a weapon, concealed or exposed, should contact the UCO Department of Public Safety at 341-2980, Ext. 2345. Any faculty member or staff employee found violating the weapon's policy is subject to immediate termination. Any student found violating the weapon's policy is subject to disciplinary action which could include explusion. Anyone who wants to bring a weapon on campus for instructional purposes, must get prior written permission from the university president. Q: I have a concealed weapons license. Can I leave my gun in my car while I'm in class? A: Yes, concealed out of sight, locked away in a glove box. Q:What if I think someone has a gun? Can I let the Department of Public Safety know and be anonymous? A: Yes, don't hestitate to call. It's better to be safe than sorry. Q: I live in the dorm. Can I keep my gun in my room? A: No. But the DPS will store a limited number of seasonal sporting weapons.

Chemical Society takes title of Outstanding Chapter
T
he UCO Student Affiliate Chapter of the American Chemical Society (ACS) was recently selected from a field of over 900 chapters across the country as an Outstanding Chapter for the second year in a row. The award is based on a review of the chapter's activities for the previous year, with special emphasis placed on pre-professional education and community outreach projects, said Dr. Terrill Smith, faculty advisor for the chapter. "Only 18 student affiliate chapters were selected as Outstanding Chapters, so it is quite an honor," Smith said. "Many members participated in the events
and activities which helped achieve this recognition," he said. President of the ACS, Ronald C. Breslow, made the announcement about the award in a letter congratulating the students and chapter advisor. "The American Chemical Society is delighted to have a Student Affiliates chapter at the University of Central Oklahoma at Edmond and would like to thank (the university) for fostering an environment in which such important extracurricular educational activity can flourish," Breslow said.

The price of $1,399 includes: airfare, ground transportation, hotels, 13 meals and entrance fees to attractions in London, York, Liverpool, Bath and Edinburgh. A deposit of $250 will hold a spot until the remainder is due Nov. 20. If the institute is taken for credit, all enrollment fees will be additional. Future trips are being planned for Mexico and possibly Germany. For more information, call Reherman at 341-2980, Ext. 2435. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;By Christy Monroe/ Student Writer
Recycling program takes all kinds of paper By Amy Schrieber Student Writer
L
ast year, UCO's recycling program saved 1,250 trees.
Over five years, the program has gone from accepting white office paper to paper of almost any kind. "If it's not food paper, we'll take it,"
said Jane Byram, director of the UCO recycling program. There are now blue recycling bins on the ground floor of 90 percent of the buildings on campus. Byram urges students, faculty, and staff to keep a bag for used paper close to where they open their mail at home. When the bag is full, the paper can be tossed in the recycling bins on the way to
class or work. A confidential service is provided for professors wanting to recycle old tests, Byram said. They need to call Byram and she will send a staff member to pick them up personally. The tests will remain in a locked bin until they are removed from campus. Currently, the program is not affiliated
with any student organizations, but students are welcome to offer ideas or suggestions. "Please save your old papers and throw them in the blue bins marked "We Recycle'," said Byram. For more information on the recycling program, call Jane Byram at 341-2980, Ext. 2401.
