Faculty Senate forms assesment committee

By Joanna Owen-Clouston Staff Writer

U

CO's faculty senate has assembled- a university assessment committee to look into the general education class sequencing.

There is no policy telling students what to take and many professors have seniors in their freshman courses.

A proposal has been sent to President George Nigh calling for a guideline on the sequencing of basic education courses, said Dr. Jere Roberson, a member of the University Assessment Committee.

"Those students might have been able to raise their grade point average (GPA) in their major course work if they had taken basic courses first," Roberson said.

He said professors want students to take their basics first to better prepare them for their upper division classes.

The general education courses are designed to impart knowledge and skills to the student which benefit them throughout their academic careers, Roberson said.

The proposal states that upon completion of 45 hours, students will be expected to have completed six hours of English, three hours of history, three hours of political science, eight hours of

science and three hours of math.

Remedial courses must be taken before any general education courses and are excluded from the calculations of hours completed in the proposal, Roberson said.

If students do not complete the general education courses they will not be able to enroll by phone and will be expected to see an academic advisor before enrolling.

Upon completion of 60 hours, students must have completed six hours of humanities, three hours of communications, two hours of personal well-being and three hours of general education elective. And beginning in the fall, three hours of business literacy, a new general education class through the

business department, will be a requirement. Transfer students will have one semester's grace before the policy is enforced.

Roberson said even while taking the general education courses there are still approximately 20 hours the student can use to take what they want.

"The proposal is designed to help the student. General education courses teach a student to study and think objectively," he said.

The proposal, if accepted, will probably affect the incoming first-year freshmen only, Roberson said.

The committee hopes the policy will go into effect Fall 1997. Ain

f you're reading this, then you have a skill the Literacy Council says one in five Oklahomans don't have. But it's one most of us take for granted.

If you have a permanent place to sleep tonight, then you're ahead of approximately 2,800 people in the state, said a Department of Human Services survey. About 1,850 of these people will spend the night in one of Oklahoma's 99 emergency homeless shelters. The rest will find someplace else to sleep, under a bridge, in a car or on a sidewalk.

But Christinastime is here. That time of year when we make lists—lists of what we want, lists of what we want for others.

With all this wanting, we can forget what we have.

Consumerism runs rampant as we search the malls for the perfect gift, the perfect outfit to wear to the New Year's party.

But we have more than we realize.

The gift of literacy and the opportunity to pursue an education is nothing to be taken for granted.

So, when you're on the third pot of coffee tonight and final exams seem like they'll never end, remember it could be worse. A

CLARIFICATIONS ✓ In the Nov. 19 issue of The Vista, it was incorrectly stated that UCO's chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Atheletes (FCA) was founded in 1990 by Russ Bishop. FCA started meeting at UCO in 1975, but they were not recognized as an official student organization until 1990, the year Bishop was president.

egarding the letter "Student enjoys entertainment pages" in The Vista's November 14 issue, I do not see why Mr. Mark Hanby compares 'The New York Times' to The Vista.

If he promulgates to be "a fan of The New York Times", and if he wishes to read entertainment news, newspapers like The New York Times would be a better `pick' to read such news rather than a student newspaper like The Vista.

Furthermore, I cannot understand why anybody would harp on some opiniated reviews on movies and albums in a student paper.

I am also surprised at TheVista-affiliated-point-of-view put forth by Mr. Hanby.

If he favors for the inclusion of several pages of entertainment secton in The Vista, would it be viable to say that reading only movie and album reviews fulfills the entertainment required by the so called "the 20th century's

mush-minded, spoon-fed adolescents" as he has referred in his letter?

If he says he is a "fan of The New York Times", I doubt if he reads its entertainment setion thoroughly.

Let me remind him that the entertainment section of The New York Times includes various other matters besides just movies!

Student uses scriptures to support Sellers T

his letter is in response to people who disagreed with Jon Sellers, and wrote to the Vista caling him "judgmental", "an extremist", and/or "ignorant". Stop criticizing him.

His article was not his opinion. It was God's fact. The Bible states in Lev. 18:22 and 1 Cor. 6:9-10, that homosexuality is a sin. I did not say that. Jon did not, say that. God said that.

Let's not forget Sodom and Gomorrah so quickly. I don't like to sound like I'm preaching hell and condemnation. I'd rather be telling everyone about how much Jesus loves them (John 3:16); but when people attack the Word of God, I will not waver. Jesus can deliver anyone from homosexuality. I know He can.

How? Because I know several people who were once homosexuals and are now born again heterosexual Christians. Jesus can and will deliver anyone from any sin (Psalm 130). You must be willing to let Him. When do we, as a society, draw the line? If it is okay to be homosexual, what's next? Adults having sex with children? Mothers having sex with their sons/daughters? Adults having sex with animals? Would rape be okay?If a line is to be drawn, who draws it, us or God? As for people who used scripture such as "judge not lest you be judged", in judging Jon Sellers, I have something to say toyou. If you are going to use scripture, don't use it out of context! In Matthew 7:1-3, Jesus confronts the

subject of judging others. What He means is for us not to be hypocrites. Read it. All of it.

If Jesus meant the verse the way it was twisted, it would mean that the Apostle Paul, the US Government who makes laws, parents who make rules, the people who wrote criticizing Jon, etc. would all be wrong in what they did. The twisted verse would also make Jesus a hypocrite and a phony.

Martha Anderson wrote in her letter, "Why would anyone choose to be hated, ridiculed, and in some instances beated and even murdered, simply because of who they love". Well, Mrs. Anderson, I know of one person....Jesus Christ.

In conclusion, I know I have offended

a lot of people. I'm sorry, but the truth sometimes hurts. If you feel you need to criticize me or call me "ignorant" and "judgmental", as you didJon Sellers, just do one thing; address all complaints to God and not to me.

These are not my opinions. My opinions died when I accepted Christ as my Savior (2 Cor. 5:17). Every one of my stands is based on the Bible.

Instead of taking my word for it, I ask you to find these answers for yourself. Do this by opening up the Bible and reading it. I pray your eyes are opened, and your soul is reborn. —Marcus Wehmuller UCO student

Graduate urges Christians to remember 'sin is sin'

H

ere Ye...Here Ye...All Christians...the time has come that we stand and conform to the mind of Christ. I was appalled to say the least that a person who stood-up for his beliefs was thrashed by letters to the Vista and not one letter in support of Jon was published. Either there are no Christians out there who believe the Bible and care enough to express their concerns or the Vista had a field day on Jon. I hold to the latter. I am a Bible believing, God fearing, blood bought, born again, saved

by GRACE, CHRISTIAN! I can read nowhere in the Bible a disclaimer of any kind saying "this text should be used at the readers discretion and interpretation."

I do not have to state all the references in the Bible that have a distinct abomination for homosexuality nor do I need to state the outright objection of murder,

foti Cool

premarital sex, adultery, bearing false witness (lying), or numerous other sins that automatically qualify ALL of us for HELL. In Romans 6:23 it states that "The wages of sin is death BUT the gift of GOD is eternal life." And in the Gospel of John it clearly says "For ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD." Now I say to you who shall miss HELL? Only those who accept Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior and desire a RELATIONSHIP with him.

The only possible way to the Father is through the SON. Sin separates us from God. I have no doubt that those who continue in sin have no relationship with Christ. Even after we receive salvation we are going to sin but the item that separates us is that our hearts, when filled with the Holy Spirit, will automatically seek

repentance. Where light is there can be no darkness. Homosexual, heterosexual, or whatever—Sin is Sin. Please understand that I myself love as Christ loved us. Not anywhere near the capacity He had, but with a love that sees the person that needs Jesus—not just the muck that labels them a sinner. My job as a Christian is to spread the Gospel and make sure that Jesus' death has an opportunity to give all life. Saying that homosexuals will perish in the flames of hell is not judging, it is merely stating biblical fact, prophesying if you will, that all who continue in sin without repentance will perish. The Bible clearly states what happens to those who do not repent of sin and accept Jesus.

And in response to all the homosexuals who have made such great contributions to society, let us not forget Lucifer, Satan

himself, was the greatest musician in all of heaven and we all no what happened when that gift was not used for God's glory. Please understand that my letter was not to take sides but to honestly state facts presented by the Bible. The Word is infallible, unchangeable, and indisputable. I - dare say that no true Christian can challenge that. Let me end by saying that God is the same yesterday, today and forever and in this understanding that God is the only one who is perfect. I in all my flaws know only enough to trust God and no matter how we look at it God is the only one to whom I have to answer. But when He asks me why He should let me in His kingdom, I know my answer...do YOU? —James Pratt UCO graduate

Callboxes relocated to heighten security

By Rhonda Bowden Student Writer ue to the expense involved in installing new callboxes, UCO will soon be relocating two emergency callboxes from their existing locations on campus to the grounds around Broncho Lake to provide more security for anyone walking near the area.

"I know they don't look like much, but those things are around $3,500 each," said Director of Public Safety (DPS), Jim Roberts.

The callboxes will be moved from the outside of the Art Building and from the faculty lot at Thatcher Hall, said Sgt. Chris Wooldridge of the UCO DPS. Roberts said the callbox outside the Art Building was installed temporarily, with plans to relocate it as needed after the construction around the lake was complete.

The Art Building callbox was not used as much as other boxes, said Roberts.

D

"I . don't ever remember hearing a call from there," he said.

Students in that area will need to use other boxes that are close by, perhaps the one located by the chapel, he said.

The callbox in the Thatcher Hall faculty lot will be moved 100 to 150 yards west, and will still be accessible to the parking lot, said Roberts.

The first of their kind on any major Oklahoma university campus, the highly visible, bright orange boxes give students a direct line to the campus police.

Currently there are 15 callboxes throughout campus.

Wooldridge said students are encouraged to use a callbox anytime they feel it necessary. . "We recommend that anyone who wants an escort use a callbox," he said.

The callboxes were used about 80 times this August and September. Most calls were nonemergency situations like locked cars and cars that wouldn't ditl) start.

Because all-nighters arerft always Spent in the library

Book buyback made more convenient Starting Dec. 9 students can sell their books back without the hassle of finding a parking space and fighting a long line inside the bookstore.

Book buyback will continue through Dec. 13. Hours are 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday-Thursday and 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday.

Traffic will enter the first paid parking lot on Hurd Street and turn north. This section will be roped off to keep confusion down, said Paul Mengwasser, University Center bookstore manager.

"We tried the drive-thru book buyback in the spring; it was convenient and the students seemed to like it," Mengwasser said.

Group formed to educate on animal awareness

By Shawn Goudy Student Writer

I

magine your pet. Now imagine that pet battered, bloodied, set on fire, or malnourished. Not a pretty picture? What can you do about it?

Ruth Eppison, a UCO junior is the president of a new non-profit organization, Oklahoma Project for Animal Compassion (OPAC) Inc., formed to educate the local area about the link between animal cruelty, child abuse, and adult aggressive behavior.

"I've been doing animal cruelty investigations for about 2 to 3 years, starting out at another local animal welfare group," Eppison said. "It was while doing those investigations, and seeing evidence of child and spousal abuse, that made me want to start this organization," she added.

She is a certified member of the Association of Certified Cruelty Investigators, a national organization and a division of the Humane Society

of the United States.

Eppison has also been invited by a sociology professor at UCO and the University of Oklahoma to speak to the social problems and social deviance classes.

"Hopefully by next fall OPAC will be active on the elementary and junior high school levels educating young people about the importance of having their pets spayed or neutered," she said.

The organization also plans to operate a "lost and found" registry. People who lose a pet can register for a small fee and those who find a stray can register that animal at no charge. They will be using a database to try and match pets with their owners.

Membership fees are $25, tax deductible, and will directly help with the educational and start up endeavors of the organization.

If you are interested in becoming a member or would like to report an act of cruelty, contact OPAC Inc. at P.O Box 76531, Oklahoma City, 73147 or call 943-7660.

Fund drive to assist terminally ill patients The Community Hospice Educational Foundation (CHEF) of Edmond is holding their second annual fund drive.

According to the National Hospice Organization, hospice is for the terminally ill patient and their family.

It allows for the ill to live out their final days when curative treatment is no longer desired.

CHEF is asking for donations of $25 or more. In return they will send you a "hospice angel," said Dianne James, events coordinator for CHEF. The angels can be personalized with names or anything the person who donates wants, said James.

"Proceeds benefit programs to educate people on what hospice is and hospice related topics," said James.

"We received over 50 donations last year," he said "CHEF is the only organization in Oklahoma that is dedicated solely to education and support in the hospice field."

If interested, contact Marilyn Morrison, executive director of CHEF, at 359-1948.

Nepalese club organized on campus

By Telannia Hytche Staff Writer In 1989, the International Office had only one student from Nepal on record. Seven years later, 19 Nepal students have joined together to create the Nepal Student Association (NSA) on UCO's campus.

The total number of members is 60 including the members from other colleges, said Dhiren Gurung, president of NSA. The colleges and universities of the extended members are the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, Oklahoma Christian University of Science and Arts and Oklahoma City Community College.

Although the organization has existed for the past month, the organization is currently awaiting

''sfot4,

approval from the Student Government Association.

Dhiren found the NSA sponsors, Dr. Charles Neimeyer, professor of history, and Dr. William Morey, associate professor of decision sciences, by introduction at a reception and by word of mouth.

During the President's Leadership Council International Student Reception in October, Dhiren was introduced to Neimeyer by Dr. Ronald Paddack, director of International Student Services.

Dhiren had heard about Morey's visits to Nepal and asked him to be the sponsor.

NSA meets on the first Friday of every month.

Tentative events for next semester include presentations by guest speakers and a membership drive Jan. 17. For more information, contact Dhiren at 359-4868.

Piano instruction classes added for non-music majors "Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Te-Do" will be ringing in the Music Building next semester with the addition of a piano class for non-music majors.

"With adult beginners, it's always fun to know you are not the only one," said Amy Zuback, lecturer of music.

Zuback will be teaching the fundamental piano instruction class for beginning pianists.

The class will cover classical, pop, folk and other types of music. There have always been non-music majors taking the class designated for music majors, only the class is not for beginning students, said Zubeck.

If the trend for students wanting piano lessons continues, the course may be offered every fall and spring semester.

Set in a group environment, the class is for beginning pianists or people who took piano before and stopped. The music department is in the process of buying Kurz Weil keyboards for the piano lab.

The one-credit hour class is listed in the undergraduate section under music courses. The course number for Class Instruction-Piano 1 is 2731, section 4720. It meets from 9:40 to 10:30 UCO students Jennifer Cloke and Kevin a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Christmas party set for tomorrow More than 150 Edmond grade school students will be on campus Dec. 6 to attend the Presidents' Club Christmas Party from 2:45 to 4:30 p.m. in the University Center Ballroom.

University organizations were sent notes in mid-October asking for their help with the party, Susan Thompson, director of student activities said.

"We had an overwhelming response from the organizations wanting to sponsor a child or help with the craft tables," said Thompson. "More than 50 offices and organizations are involved in this year's party."

Principals of 13 Edmond elementary schools were sent information about the party offered for underprivileged children in the area. Counselors at each school picked the children to attend.

Thompson said the university thought it best to let the principals and counselors of the schools decide who was to attend because they know the needs of their children.

The sponsors were given an information sheet on what they needed to purchase for the children attending. One article of clothing, a toy and a filled stocking purchased by the sponsor will be given to each child. Venture in Edmond gave a 20-percent discount on all items purchased for the event.

The children will make crafts and decorate cookies. At 4 p.m.

Santa will arrive to pass out gifts and stockings. Photographs of each child with Santa will be taken and given to the child at the end of the party.

Tar may smell bad but it won't make you sick

By Telannia Hytche Staff Writer

"Aaahhh, there's nothing like the smell of fresh air." Dorm residents will return next semester to an absence of hot tar.

Southwestern Roofing and Metal, Inc. was contracted to repair the roofs of West Hall and Central Cafeteria.

The two buildings had leaking problems, said Kenny Kaaiohelo, vice president of the company.

Repair of West Hall was completed Nov. 15, two weeks after its scheduled completion date.

Jim Hurd, overseer of all construction projects, said workers were not very far behind considering there were so many rain delays.

Construction on Central Cafeteria began immediately after and will be completed by the end of the week, said

Some students living in the dorm expressed concern over whether the inhaling of the tar would cause damage to their health.

Jennifer Burlason, a sophomore criminal justice major, said she was watching the Oprah Winfrey Show when a high school girl said she developed health related problems after her school underwent construction.

Burlason said she began to wonder if the smell of tar would pose any health risks.

Labetta Wallenmeyer, director of student health center and registered nurse, said there are no documented cases where tar smell affects the body.

"Other than the obnoxious odor, it would not hurt anybody," said Don Powers, director of safety and environmental management, physical

Web Master shares Net knowledge with UCO faculty

By Lisa Tatum Staff Writer

F

rom E-mail to E-Zines, UCO Professor Wayne Stein uses the Internet as a teaching tool.

The international English professor started using the Internet in his classes three years ago when E-mail accounts were new to the university. Today Stein has designed E-Zines on the World Wide Web where his students write essays and journals.

Stein explained his methods of teaching with the Internet to a group of professors Nov. 22 at the Liberal Arts' bi-monthly UCO Professor Wayne Stein demonstrates the teaching Brown Bag Lunch. techniques using E-mail and E-Zines on the Internet at the He said his students are Liberal Arts Brown Bag Seminar. (Staff photo by Lisa Tatum) required to obtain an E-mail

account at the beginning of the semester.

To get them acquainted with the system, Stein gives his students points for sending him messages via E-mail.

In other assignments Stein's students explore topics on the World Wide Web and respond to the professor's questions through E-mail. They also send E-mail to students at other universities.

Stein said he believes these exercises help students generate ideas and become familiar with the Internet.

Stein has designed electronic magazines known as E-Zines where his students write essays and share ideas.

He said his students enjoy reading each other's essays in the E-Zines.

This format also allows students to write for an audience beyond the professor.

Stein said use of the Internet in higher education is growing and he expects that growth to be reflected at UCO. As Web Master for the College of Liberal Arts, Stein will serve as a teacher for other professors who want to learn how to use the Internet in teaching.

"Any subject can have a web page," said Stein, demonstrating how a simple page is designed.

Emphasizing that knowledge of the Internet will also benefit professors.

Stein advised educators to learn by experimenting with it because "students are already using it." ei6

Twas the night before finals... `Twas the night before finals and all through the college, the students were all praying, for that last minute knowledge Most were quite sleepy, but none touched their beds.

While visions of essays, danced in their heads.

Out in the Taverns, a few were still drinking.

And hoping that liquor would loosen their thinking.

In my own apartment, I had been pacing.

And dreading exams that I would be facing.

My roommate was speechless, his nose in the books.

And my comments to him, drew unfriendly looks.

I drained all the coffee, and brewed a new pot.

No longer caring, that my nerves were all shot.

CAMPUS CRIME

I stared at my notes, but my thoughts were all muddy.

My eyes were a blur, and I just couldn't study.

What started out as a 'candy store window display in the 1960s, became a 30-year passion, for Tom Brittain and his friend Luke Crum.

Over the years, the two men purchased hundreds, of St. Nick figures for their personal collection.

Hearing of the collection, people began sending Santas as gifts.

Presidents Clinton and Bush each sent Father Christmas statuettes to the pair, as did Olympic goldmedalists Shannon Miller and Raft Conner and country singer Reba McEntire.

As the collection grew, Brittain and Crum shared their treasures at a traditional Christmas open house.

It grew over the years from a gathering of friends to a public exhibition "They,,W*ked,a.11 year on it," said Dr-Ao, Ann Adams. curator of the Donna Nigh Gallery.

Ad anis,A1167first viewed the collection in 1993, said the Santas filled every room of the pair's northwest Oklahoma City home.

UCO President George Nigh remembers visiting/ Brittain and Crum's open house* (`Christmas ritual." 1i> "We took the Wandki'ds,eyery„, year," Nigh said. recalling how Brittain could recite the Instories, zo, behind the different Krtk'-,Krittles in his menagerie.

It was a close personal friendship between Nigh, his wife

Donna and thecollectors that led t6' :c acquisition of th.„.e.: II (11‘e111 1 ,We jcnew them for many years," said Nigh, adding that they were very supportive of Mrs. Nigh's endorsement of the arts.

He said the pair initially offered the Santa Claus collection to the Donna Nigh Gallery when it was established, but decided to continue showing it in their home as long as they were physically able to.

Seven years ago Brittain and Crum extended their open house invitation to the general public.

Rather than profit from the showings, they collected donations for Oklahoma City's annual Red Andrews Christmas Dinner, a 54yearLold charity that provides a Christmas meal for thousands of Oklahomans as well as gifts for children.

Last year's dinner was dedicated to Brittain in honor of the more than $12,000 he collected for the charity.

Following Brittain's death in 1995 and Crum's failing health, the 78-box Santa collection was donated to the Donna Nigh Gallery this spring.

Nigh said he made a promise to Brittain and Crum to continue their charitable tradition by exhibiting the Santas each year and collecting donations for the Christmas dinner.

Donations can be sent to the Red Andrews Christmas Dinner, P.O. Box 18894, Oklahoma City, OK 73154.

They will also be accepted at the gallery exhibit on the fourth floor of the University Center during the following viewing hours: 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. Dec. 2 - 8 1 - 6 p.m. Dec. 9 -13 9 a.m. Dec. 14 For those who want to visit with a real-life jolly ol' elf, the man in the red suit will make a guest appearance during the Dec. 8 dedica ri cition of thecollection. , to,„;thg,„Lp.ITI. dediCation, a CO e(2and-go holiday luncheon Will e served in the Umverkty Center Redbud Room at 11:30 a.rn.'-„, The public is invited to alien the $7.25-per-person luncheon as well as the gallery ceremony.

Middle school students compete in Social Science Fair

By Judy Simpson Staff Writer

S

ixth, seventh and eight graders from local schools gathered in the University Center Ballroom Dec. 3 for the Social Science Fair.

Middle school students competed for awards by presenting hand-made displays about people and topics relating to history and social studies.

The fair is an annual UCO event coordinated by Dr. James Baker, chair of the history and geography department.

It's sponsored through private donations from the UCO Foundation.

Baker started the fair five years ago to promote the image of the university and as a service to the community.

"It strengthens ties with the community and also teaches students how to research and present findings," said Baker.

We chose middle-school-age students, Baker said, because "they're more focused on academics instead of other activities and we want to get them excited about learning."

Student projects and essays were judged by UCO seniors majoring in education who plan to teach social studies, history or geography. Winners received trophies for first, second and third place.

Shanequah Brison, a seventh grader from Hoover Middle School, did her project about William Edward Burghardt, the founder of the NAACP and editor of one of the first African American

newspapers. She participated in the fair after reading about Burghardt at her school library."Lots of people can learn about other people at this fair," said Brison.

Still excited after taking third place in the partnership project, Jennifer Pyron

The ghost of turkeys past...

Thanksgiving memories usher in 'the best one yet'

By Mary Reinauer Staff Writer

T

he thing about Thanksgiving is it's never this year's bird that you feast upon, but the ghosts of turkeys past.

When I opened my eyes last Thursday, I wasn't thinking about the culinary task that awaited, or the two pecan pies, or eight pounds of potatoes, both white and sweet, I had already produced.

I was thinking about the pumpkin pies I would make from the Martha Stewart recipe in my new cookbook. And, I was thinking about my mother.

Ours was only a minimally dysfunctional family, my mother normally a gentle person. So when she took to beating our boxer with a large ham bone, I was alarmed. I was 8 years old and knew not the significance the day held for adult females.

I was remembering this episode as I sprinted to the kitchen to find out. For the designated chef, the day is more about giving than about thanking.

I pulled the soon-to-be stuffed, roasted, carved, devoured, and ultimately remembered as "the best one ever" by my loved ones from the refrigerator. As it lay bleeding in the sink, my fist disappeared into its innermost parts to birth that bundle of joy known since the days of pilgrims and Indians as giblets.

"Giblets" from the looks of them, are almost surely a euphemism for turkey balls. Without them, you cannot make gravy. And without gravy, you can't have Thanksgivingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;according to my loved

ones.

Ours were curiously firm and cold. I am the veteran of a number of these poultry post-mortems, so I knew the next step. A quick exam of the patient revealed the diagnosis. It was still frozen.

This condition was often fatalâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;for the cook. Luckily, I knew the cure-the microwave. After prepping the patient with browning sauce, I eased him into the apparatus like a neurosurgeon trying out a new MRI. If it weren't for the fact that the tibias, I mean drumsticks, protruded past the door making it impossible to close, it might have worked. I was panicking now.

My mother, God rest her soul, would know what to do. I beseeched her spirit for help. "You are not alone," it replied.

My loved ones were unconscious from football and roaring fires. "What now Mom? My turkey is frozen, my loved ones are unconscious and I don't have a ham bone. I never could make gravy like yours anyway."

I must have been speaking out loud.

OK, I was yelling and gesturing like a street cop on a busy corner. "Help," I cried as they followed me to the kitchen where we operated on the frozen fowl until it was hacked up enough to fit in the microwave.

My fingers punched buttons like Libarace on the keyboard. A bright light appeared as we soaked up rads by pressing our noses to the oven door. Then the light went out. I tried to restart it.

Nothing.

I checked to see if it was plugged in. It was. We would have to go on without

turkey. Dressing, eight pounds of potatoes, both mashed and sweet, spinach salad and four pies, two that remained to be produced, would be all we had.

"What is Thanksgiving without turkey?" I implored my mother's spirit.

"You are not hungry," it replied.

Now I could understand what had prompted my mother to beat the family dog. Lacking room in the refrigerator, she had taken the Thanksgiving ham along with a frozen turkey to thaw on the screened-in back porch. The dog ate a hole in the screen and finished off his meal with ours. The mutt was lucky she didn't pluck and roast him.

As I assembled the pie makings, I thought to myself, that Thanksgiving when I was eight was the one I remembered most. Now, as an adult, I had so many more turkeys under my belt and memories in my heart. I tasted them all with every bite.

The spices were laid out, the eggs and sugar beaten, the crust rolled and fluted, but I couldn't find the canned pumpkin.

Then I remembered that we had donated it to the Boy Scout food drive, and I had forgotten to replace it. It was five o'clock on Thanksgiving night and the crew had roused from their comas to clean up the mess all my good intentions had created.

Well, Mom. We have no pumpkin pies to go with the turkey we don't have because I forgot to thaw it and the microwave has picked this of all days to go on strike. What else can happen, I implored her spirit. It replied "There will be more."

Obviously Martha Stewart doesn't live here, I thought as we sat down to the table, the two missing traditions unmissed.

After we prayed and talked, and gave thanks and ate, we unanimously decided that it had been "the best one ever."

Like families across the land, we pushed back our chairs, haunted by the thought of holiday pounds that would come home to roost. And we were thankful we had, in some small way, been able to help ensure at least one good meal for a family not as lucky as we.

Tomorrow we would eat pie for breakfast and curse the scales.

Tonight we would share the ghosts of turkeys past.

Campus to undergo changes over break

By Gayleen Langthorn Managing Editor

S

tudents returning after the Christmas break should see a big difference in the campus.

"It'll be like night and day," said Jim Hurd, who oversees construction for UCO. Landscape, Inc., the company awarded phase I of the three-part landscape plan, is scheduled to start site work this week.

They'll be staking out the spots for

trees, Hurd said. Approximately 300 trees will be planted on the campus interior.

They will be a mixture of shade, ornamental and pine trees with 3.5- to 5inch diameter trunks and range in height from 18 to 24 feet, Hurd said.

Although large trucks will transport the trees to their designated spots, Hurd said it will cause little damage to the existing grass.

"The contractor would be responsible for repairing any damage," Hurd said.

The contractor is also responsible for

maintenance of the trees for one year after the completion date.

"If one dies, he'll replace it," Hurd said.

Phase I is scheduled to be completed in 60 calendar days. This puts completion around Jan. 31. But bad weather could delay the work.

"It all hinges on good weather," Hurd said.

Construction on both the Business and Communications Buildings will be completed by January, Hurd said. Both

buildings have minor things the contractor is finishing before the university takes possession lactifelfiew areas.

The fire marshal has issued occupancy certificates for both buildings.

Completion of the library addition should be February 1997. Renovation of the existing building will start then, with the entire project ending in June.

The science lab wing addition to Howell Hall is expected to be finished in February 1997, Hurd said.

hether you are a seasoned traveler or a first-time flyer, it's hard to ignore the images of twisted metal and floating - luggage from airline crashes that dominated television screens and newspapers the past year.

Yet every day 15,000-20,000 airplanes take off in the United States filled with trusting travelers. Most of them reach their destination quickly and safely. But regardless of how many successful flights there are, many people wonder, "How safe is this?"

In 1995 there were 36 crashes among major commercial carriers; up from 23 crashes in 1994. This year the number has already surpassed 27, yet experts contend that better aircraft, computerized flight information and improved regulations have made flying safer than

ever.

Clint Oster, co-author of Why Airplanes Crash, said problems such as engines quitting, aircraft flying unknowingly into severe weather and mid-air collisions have all but been eliminated.

"It takes a much more unusual set of circumstances to lead to a plane actually crashing," he said.

Those who take little solace in whether the circumstances are unusual or not may be comforted by statistics that show more people die each year in recreational boating accidents than on commercial air flights.

According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), 168 people died in commercial airline accidents in 1995, while 836 died in boating accidents.

Moreover, the fact that more than

22,000 died in passenger-car accidents might give flyers the perspective they need to feel safer in the skies.

But being convinced that there is only a slim chance of being in an airline accident (.27 accidents per 100,000 flight hours in 1995) doesn't stop most of us from wondering exactly what we would do if that critical moment occurred.

One California businessman said he carries a picture of his two children in his breast pocket when he flies.

"I look at it right before take-off and keep it there just in case," he said.

A mother who frequently flies with her young daughter says prayer is part of their flying ritual.

Aside from seeking divine intervention, there are some practical measures fliers can take that might

indeed save their lives in the event of a crash.

• Memorize the number of rows between you and two exits. In a crash you could be blinded by smoke and have to feel your way to safety.

• Wear natural-fiber clothes like cotton or wool. Polyester and other synthetic fabrics can melt in intense heat causing severe skin burns.

• Wear sneakers or low-heeled shoes to avoid tripping as you hurry to an exit.

• Know how to unbuckle. Practice unbuckling your seatbelt before takeoff so it will come easily during a panic situation.

• Stay alert. An excess of alcohol or motion-sickness drugs can hinder your awareness and impede a safe exit.

Mos/ colleges 'don't consider themselves to be well Ohigged-in when it comes to networking.

The key to effective networking is called "The Ripple Effect." The first ripple is the largest, but it's the second and third ripples that covers the greatest area. The more stones that break the

opportunity to th4e,',-a 'ripple in The marketplace, you're going to have to toss a few stones into the pond. Otherwise you probably won't even•break the surface.

In building your job search network, you will need to develop a list of potential network contacts. Don't worry about whether they are personally responsible for hiring. It's not who they are, it's who they know.
