McCourry proposes changes

Baccalaurate grads: 'second-class citizens' By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter Baccalaurate degree candidates are treated unfairly at graduation, according to Joe McCourry, student senate president. McCourry has proposed changes in the ceremonies to CSU President Bill Lillard. "Baccalaurate candidates are delegated second-class citizens at commencement ceremonies here," McCourry said. "They just stand up as a group, have their degree conferred upon them and sit down. Then they have to be humiliated even further by having to sit there while all masters degrees candidates are recognized individually." McCourry submitted Lillard with the proposal at his inauguration Nov. 28. The proposal called for the following procedures: —Three platforms equipped with a podium would be erected in a line across the stadium floor. Deans and other officials would

be seated on the platforms and the degree candidates would be seated behind the platforms on the field. The masters degree candidates would sit behind the center platform. —The ceremony would be conducted from the center platform where the president and other officials would be located. —Masters degree candidates would go first. Dean Fisher would call out their names and they would go up on the stage one at a time and receive their diploma. —Deans of each of the schools would stand one by one and give a short speech about their schools. —Baccalaureate candidates would stand simultaneously and one by one go up on the platform row by row alternating from one platform to the other and receive their degree. —When students got on stage, they would hand the dean a three by five card sent to them by the university. On this card would be

written the students name, school, honors and degree. This would be read by the dean to the audience and they would then be given their diploma.

—Students would then return to their seats. According to McCourry the process would take about two and a half hours.

By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter Shouts of glee and excitement were heard in the University Center Friday afternoon when Christmas came early for 87 Edmond elementary children. The youngsters were attending the annual Presidents Club Christmas party for underprivileged children. According to Lynda Cearfoss, party coordinator, underprivileged children, ages 6-11, are invited from all the Edmond elementary schools. The selection of the children is made by the principals of each school. "This is the largest group of children we have ever had at the party," Cearfoss said. There were 30 other on campus organizations participating in the party. Volunteers from each of the orgainzations took part in the holiday spirit and sponsored a child. Information was furnished about the individual boy or girl so that the sponsor could buy an appropriate gift. The sponsors were also responsible for transporting See PARTY, page 6

Opinion Page Student senate defended

McCourry counters Vista editorial Letter to the Editor:

Your editorial in the Nov. 10 issue raised a lot of senators' blood pressure. I feel it is my duty, therefore, to respond to the points listed in that article. First, the senate meets at 12:30 p.m. every Monday in an effort to be consistent. We are very well aware of the commuter population and it is for just that reason that we meet at 12:30. Most of the students are out of class by this time and it is more reasonable to expect them to take a few minutes and visit the senate now rather than have them drive back to the campus after work.

I will also remind you that I am a working student, supporting a family, and I find time to participate and represent you. Second, you asked about how we know what the students' views are and why we don't have more forums. To begin with, we are 44 people who attend class in almost every sector of the campus. We visit individually with as many people as possible to find out what you want and need. We would be more than happy to have more forums, but students only seem to participate when they can get out of class for it. If

I am wrong, I hope that the suggestion boxes in each building will be stuffed full with comments to the contrary. Third, if we are not now truly useful, then why did you not attend school on Oct. 17 and 18? Why do you have the chance to critique your classes? Why do you have the ability to appeal your grades? The answer is because your student senators went to bat in your behalf to get them. The senate is the governing body for the students. We make recommendations to the administration on changes

Showing 'The Day After' effective because of timing Letter to the Editor:

After watching ABC's movie "The Day After" on Nov. 20, I went outside and calmly searched the sky for minuteman missiles. Seeing none, I started to go back in where it was warm, but something stopped me. Standing in the middle of my yard was the loveliest pecan tree I'd ever seen. Oh, I know, I see that tree everyday but that night I realized how lucky I was to have a tree, a yard, a clear sky, and a warm house to go back into. Maybe it's odd that "The Day After" didn't just depress me and bring out all that pessimism that many are sure to feel when reflecting on the movie. I think the value of the film falls in the timing of it for several reasons. First of all, it's high time we paid close attention to the threat we are facing. We only have one earth and as Henry Kissinger put it after the film, we should take up "our political and

moral obligation to think of procedures, methods to keep this from happening." Secondly, with our new awareness of the effects of a nuclear war, maybe this should motivate students to find a solution, to improving our natures and to find a way to live together. Last and most important with regard to the timing of "The Day After," is that it fell just before Thanksgiving. This Thanksgiving we knew the odds we are facing, which as Carl Sagan made clear, are many times as severe as depicted in the movie. We must remember, however, that only people start wars, not weapons. Thus, only people can prevent wars. Thanksgiving took on more important features in that we still have our lives, homes, families and trees. This Thanksgiving, we were thankful for all we have—even budget cuts, unemployment, and supposed grade inflation. At least we're still here to find a solution. Wendy Johnson

The task of cutting back is nothing new to the president. Due to past budget shortfallings, Lillard has been forced to severely limit out-of-state travel for faculty and staff. Also vacant positions have been left that way in an effort to cutback. But such measures were minor compared to the whittling task Lillard faces now. Out-of-state travel looks like small kindling compared to the big timbers like night classes and summer school which may be axed. Lillard's best move may be to cut where it hurts the worst. Slash night classes; cancel summer school. This will effect those "taxpayers" in the private sector who are trying to climb the ladder and full-time students who can't fit a class into their day schedule. Teachers who have been mandated the state to continue their education will also be effected. Maybe then those who slept while some legislators did their best to pull the plug on public education will pull their heads out of the sand.

State,local, world news DHS paying more for janitors In a copyright story by the Daily Oklahoman, it was reported that the Department of Human Services is paying more than twice the going rate in the private sector for janitorial services at the department's headquarters in Oklahoma City. The story reported the department was paying more than 10 cents per square foot of office space, when the rate in the private sector is 4.5 cents per square foot. The story quoted janitorial contractors who said the department could save about $100,000 per year if it used normal office bid specifications like the ones used by companies that manage some of the larger downtown Oklahoma City office buildings.

8 Marines killed in shelling The U.S. Marine base in Beirut came under fire again Sunday night from Druse militiamen with eight Marines being killed and two wounded. The Marines came under fire about 12 hours after Syrian gunners shot down two U.S. Navy jets that were in a group of 28 involved in the first American air strike in Lebanon. The Pentagon said a two-man A-6 and a one-man A-7 fighter plane were shot down as they attacked Syrian positions in Lebanon's central mountains. One flier was rescued and at least one was captured. Syrian soldiers said the third flier was killed, but Secretary of Defense Casper Weinberger said he believes the Syrians are holding two fliers. U.S. warships opened fire on the Druse positions in the mountains overlooking Beirut after the Marines at the Beirut airport came under attack. The air strikes marked the first time U.S. forces in Lebanon were known to have attacked Syrian army positions, bringing the United States into direct military confrontation with the Soviet Union's closest ally in the area.

McGovern critizes U.S. role Presidential hopeful George McGovern said Sunday that, "step by step the United States is approaching war with Syria." McGovern, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for president said that, "Ronald Reagan is compounding his mistakes in Lebanon rather than facing his original mistake of assigning Marines to a sitting-duck role at the Beirut airport. He has virtually consigned our Marines as hostages of the Arab-Israeli conflict."

Klansmen arrested in California Fifteen members of the Ku Klux Klan were arrested after setting fire to three large crosses in a residential backyard Sunday in Los Angeles. As a police helicopter kept watch overhead, the group torched the 12- to 15 foot crosses in the backyard. Members of the Jewish Defense League had protested the burnings before they started, but left the scene peacefully after police assured them that any cross burnings would result in arrests.

McCourry said that he is not optimistic about the proposals chances in the administration. "Lillard has said in the past that he wants to hold to tradition in the conducting of the graduation ceremonies," McCourry said. According to McCourry, approval of the proposal could be helped along with student support. "What we need to get this done is continued student pressure and support. More students need to speak out in favor of the changes," McCourry said. "I hope to get together with the Dean's Counsel and gain their support of the proposal so that we can have a united student-faculty push for the changes." Additional proposals concerning graduation that McCourry has made are: —Have a fall graduation ceremony. This would cut the number of graduates participating in the summer ceremony by 600. —Masters degree candidates have an earlier ceremony prior to the baccalaureate ceremony. This would reduce the number of candidates attending the later ceremony by 450.

By Sunday morning morning 26 inches of snow had fallen at Norden, Nev., and winds gusting to more than 80 mph were reported at Henderson, Nev., just south of Las Vegas. About 30 inches of new snow had fallen at the Sundance ski resort in Utah, and a total of 102 inches covered the ground at Powder Mountain according to the National Weather Service.

Specialized education causes career burnout

CSU Student Senate President Joe McCourry receives the oath of office from Les McWhorter, chief justice of the CSU Student Judicial Board. Jenny Fowler, Miss CSU 1983, assists in the ceremony. McCourry was recently elected to his second term as president. The swearing-in took place Nov. 28.

Protection workshop scheduled Reports of rapes and other violent crimes have caused many women to consider ways of defending themselves. Some have even taken courses in self-defense to fight off would-be attackers. But another method of prevention, self-protection, is very different and often not given enough consideration. Each semester the CSU department of health, physical education and recreation offers a workshop in self-protection for women.

"Self-defense is what you do when you are attacked," said Dr. Carol Parker, assistant professor of health and physical education and coordinator of the community health program, who teaches the course. "Self-protection is what you can do to keep the attack from happening. It involves using your mind and logic." Parker said some physical defenses are discussed in the workshop, such as hitting and kicking. But 75 to 80 percent of

the time is spent on psychological defenses. "We try to get the students to think of what they would do if they were faced with a potential attack situation," she said. "I don't ever say you should do this or that in a situation, because not everyone is comfortable with the same kind of defenses. It's important to know what's right for you." The workshop is scheduled for Feb. 13-17 and may be taken for one hour non-activity credit.

By Cherie Smith "The ever changing sphere of technology makes career obsolescence more common than ever before in today's society. I f a student receives only one form of specialized training, he or she is generally less prepared to adapt to a new job situation than those students who receive a broad background in liberal education," Dr. Richard Peters, professor of history, warns. Peters adds that too much specialization in career training can lead to tunnel vision which might endanger a student's job mobility in the long run. "Regardless of what a student does in life, he or she needs a good, basic education. This requires the development of good writing and communication skills, as well as a basic knowledge of the economic, social and political structure of our society. This is the mark of a welleducated person," Peters said. Peters feels the undergraduate experience in higher education should include a carefully integrated curriculum of both career preparation and liberal education, not only to obtain the maximum intellectual development of the individual, but to also make students more flexible and adaptive in future careers. The adaptibility and flexibility of the liberal arts graduate is causing more and more businesses to review current hiring practices, Peters said. For example, nearly one third of those hired for AT&T's management training programs are liberal arts graduates. An AT&T study found that humanities and liberal arts graduates performed better overall and were promoted faster. This new employability of liberal arts graduates shows a reversal of trends in the 1960s and 70s in which liberal arts graduates were largely ignored by both businesses and colleges, Peters said. According to Peters, the liberal arts school at CSU has made an attempt to insure CSU students have a well-integrated curriculum through the school's implementation of the applied liberal arts degree. Introduced last year here, the degree is designed to create a balance between career preparation and liberal education courses. It emphasizes a broad education while providing an opportunity for students to explore one subject in depth. To receive an applied liberal arts degree, students must complete a selected number of hours from courses in the social and behavioural sciences, humanities, communications, foreign languages and career proficiency. Twenty-one hours of the total needed for the degree must be selected from the student's preferred subject specialization to prevent a `smorgasboard' of courses, said Peters. "Liberal arts, when taught well and in an atmosphere of free inquiry, develops in students the capacity to reason and think independently," Peters said. "And what is more practical than the ability to think?"

The teachers and staff of CSU are heading back to the classroom as students. More than 60 employees and faculty members have enrolled for an innovative program to teach computer literacy. "We are very excited abouth the program in this office," said Dr. Albert Lynd, assistant vice president for academic affairs. "All of the classes are filled and we havbe three times that many on a waiting list for each section." The classes, which teach basic word processing, Visicalc Spreadsheet, data search, computerized grade book and an introduction to the cornputer center services, are an outgrowth of a task force on computer literacy called by Dr. James Perry, academic vice president. Computer classes of various types have been taught in many departments, but for the first time, classes are now being offered to both the faculty and the staff in order to teach basics as well as inform them about services already available on campus. "We believe we're the first university in Oklahoma to found such a program," Lynd said. "I'm confident we're certainly the first of the regional institutions doing this." The classes are structered so the participants with all levels of knowledge can benefit. "Some may know very little about computers, but they are anxious to learn," said Lynd. "Others are more experienced." For that reason, there are two advanced taxes, one in Visicalc, which is basically a business balance sheet program and the other in Apple Writer II, a word processing program. In addition tio the Visicalc and Apple II program, staff and faculty may enroll in classes which explain the database search service, the computerized grade book, and an introduction to the computer center services.

Among the services already being offered through the computer center are test scoring and statistical analysis of the data, grade book programs, games that teach business thoeries, Spanis grammar and psychological statistics. "The current computer literacy classes will obviously be repeated rather frequently, and new classes being developed will be ready later in the school year," Lynd said. "I see a lot of excitement in the people as they begin to learn the various pices of software," said Sharon Christianberry, a computer center employee who teaches the Visicalc and Apple Writer II classes. "It's very rewarding teaching these classes," said Christianberry. "You know that anyone who takes a no-cost, no-credit class really wants instruction."

Faculty to discuss bud et rumors By Mike Sherman Editor Faced with further budget cutbacks and the possiblity of faculty lay-offs, the faculty senate has called a general meeting of the Faculty Association Thursday, according to a memo sent to faculty members by Senate president Dennie Hall.

The meeting, originally planned for Wednesday, had to be rescheduled. CSU President Bill Lillard was not able to attend due to a meeting of university presidents in the office of the Chancellor of Higher Education Wednesday afternoon. The meeting will begin at 1:40 p.m.

Thursday in Ballrooms B and C of the University Center. Lillard will address the meeting, according to Hall, equipped with the latest information of the state's financial crisis and how it will effect the campus. Hall said the meeting was called so that the faculty could get a view of the administration's thinking

on the matters and sort out some of the rumors concerning the cutbacks. Earlier, Lillard predicted the failure of the legislature to increase taxes would be disasterous to CSU's budget. Lillard said cutbacks hit 23 percent for December spelling a loss of $400,000-$450,000 to CSU.

Bronchos win one, lose one

Lady Bronchos fall to BNC By Mark Spears Sports Editor

CSU guard Keith Russell goes up for layup against Oklahoma Christian College in OCC Classic action Friday.

Remember the date, Saturday December 3rd, 1983, for it will reign throughout the anals of time as "Black Saturday" in the history of CSU athletics. After the football team lost their playoff game in the afternoon the men's and women's basketball teams preceeded to lose Saturday night. The Lady Bronchos blew a 35-28 halftime lead to the Bethany Nazerene Lady Redskins who walked away with a 69-64 victory. The Lady Bronchos dropped their record to 3-1. At the start of the second half the Lady Redskins ran off eight straight points to take a 36-35 advantage. The Lady Bronchos managed to take the lead at 37-36, but then fell behind to stay on BNC's next bucket. The closest the Lady Bronchos were to come the rest of the game was three points the last being 44-41 with 12:45 ramainng in the game. In the second half BNC seemed to hit everything that they threw up at the basket and the Lady Bronchos were as cold inside the gym as it was outside. The only bright spots for head

coach John Keely had to be senior Carrie Tucker. Tucker finished the game with 20 points and six rebounds. Alette Johnson led the team in rebounds with nine while tossing in 11 points and Jackie Eckels added 10 more points for the Lady Bronchos. BNC's Johnna Merritt led all scorers with 26 points while teammate Lisa Christoph added 23 more to carry the load for BNC. Earlier in the evening the men's Basketball team lost to BNC 80-68 in their second game of the OCC Classic in the Eagles Nest. The Bronchos looked sharper this night than they did the night before as the first half was a seesaw battle with the Bronchos taking a 40-38 lead into the locker room at halftime. The first half was marred by a small fight that resulted in the ejection of BNC's James Malone midway through the first half. The biggest advantage the Bronchos could manage in the second half was three points and it looked like this game would turn out to be another barn burner for CSU. The Bronchos managed to hold a 60-59 lead with 7:16 to play, but BNC scored 13 unansered points

for a 73-60 lead which proved to be to much for CSU to overcome. The big man in the game for CSU was Chuck Kersgieter. Kersgieter. The 6'3" forward played inside the lane all night and got 25 points and seven rebounds. The only other Broncho to shoot in double figures was Keith Russell with 19 points. As with BNC's women's team two players carried much of the scoring load as Jose Santos tossed in 25 points and 13 rebounds and Bruce Banz hit for 23 points. The Bronchos had to come from behind Friday night to beat a 2-8 OCC team that didn't belong on the same floor with CSU. The Bronchos trailed the Eagles at the half by the score of 39-28 due mainly to nine Broncho turnovers. CSU got hot late in the second half and tied the game at 58 with three minutes remaining. At the end of regulation the game was tied at 61 and the Bronchos pulled away for a 71-66 victory. Both the Bronchos and Lady Bronchos will play at home Thursday against Phillips. The women will tip off at 5:30 p.m. with men scheduled for a 7:30 tipoff.

Flea-flicker does trick

Saginaw stuns Bronchos By Mike Sherman Editor The end came quickly for the Bronchos Saturday at Wantland Stadium, but not without pain. For the CSU portion of the 1,555 fans it must have all seemed like a bad dream. But the Broncho players, unbeaten in their last 16 tries, realized all too much that it was no dream. The game was a rude awakening for these fellows, who cake-walked through the first eight games of the year unbeaten, untied and untouched. It was the ol' David and Golaith routine all over again. It was the upset of the year in the NAIA. It was, in a word, unbelievable. Unheralded Saginaw Valley State of Michigan rolled into Edmond promising that they wouldn't roll over and play dead for the Bronchos. The "Cardiac Cardinals" made good on that promise as they stunned CSU with a touchdown of a flea-flicker play with 1:28 remaining to gain a 14-13 come-from-behind victory. The CSU defensive unit played its most impressive game of the year as it posed a constant pass rush for the first time, sparked by the play of Defensive Player of the Game Bo Mathews. Mathews had two quarterback sacks and was in the backfield several times. The secondary, sparked by seniors John Preston and Fred Henderson played their usual bone-crushing defense. But a blown coverage late in the game proved fatal. Saginaw faced a third-and-15 play at the CSU 48 when quarterback Rusty Mandle drilled reciever Troy Shannon at the Broncho 30. Shannon lateraled the ball to tailback Bryon Krukowski, who dashed for the goaline like a man late for the last plane out of Moscow. Krukowski went in untouched for the gametying tally. Place kicker Dave Berkley booted the extra point through the uprights to put Saginaw in the lead and on the map. Mandle, voted Offensive Player of the Game, later said it was the biggest win in the school's history. "I told them not to let us get within 90 seconds of winning the ballgame," said Saginaw coach George Ihler. "We had done it (come from behind) five times before. This team just has a lot of heart." CSU still had time for a lastditch effort and may have pulled it off had it not been for the slippery field and a brisk wind. Daric Zeno fielded the ensuing

kickoff and slipped to his knees at the CSU 8, giving the Bronchos their worst field position of the day. Although many heads on the Bronchos' sidelines stared at the soggy turf, the offensive unit showed signs of life. Following an overthrown pass, quarterback Randy Page and Zeno hooked up on a little magic of their own as Page skied a Hail Mary pass to Zeno at the CSU 43. Page hit his other receiver Willie Henderson with a 20-yard completion on the next play and freshman Tim Goodson followed with a six-yard run on a draw to move CSU to the Cardinal 31 with 54 seconds showing. But the comeback stalled there. Page's next pass was bobbled out of bounds by Bruce Vann. The southpaw then overthrew Chris Edgmon who had a step on a defender at the 12. On fourth down, Page tried to go over the middle but was picked off by linebacker Darrel Bartkowiak to throw the Saginaw sidelines into a frenzy and give the Bronchos a quick exit from the playoffs that many thought they would dominate. "I guess it was like any other loss," reflected Vann. "Except this one hurts a little more of course." What hurt the Bronchos the most was that their once highpowered offense could not get untracked. When it appeared the Bronchos may have the momen-

turn, the play calling turned conservative. Following Saginaw's first score early in the fourth quarter, the Bronchos managed only one first down in four possesions. To make matters worse, CSU's all-district tailback Joe Hayes left the game following the first play from scrimmage with a strained achilles tendon. Hayes did not return. The Bronchos waited until early in the second quarter to grab a lead as they capitalized on cornerback Randy Preston's interception at the Saginaw 32. Six plays later, Page scored on a four-yard

keeper. Dwain Banks kick made it 7-0. CSU upped its lead to 13-0, going 47 yards in three plays. Willie Henderson set up the score with a diving grab of a deflected pass at the Saginaw four. After Goodson picked up three Vann took it in for the score. But, Banks' kick was wide to the left making it 13-0. No Broncho fan in their right mind would have imagined that would have made a difference, but it did. After having one drive break down in the third quarter, Saginaw got back in the contest as

Mandle scampered into the end zone finishing off a 10-play, 57-yard march. Berkley's point after made it 13-7 setting the stage for the game-winning comeback. In winning, Saginaw took a page out of the Oklahoma University playbook. The Cardinals used the flea-flicker made famous by the Sooners and executed as well OU could have hoped to. In the end, the play demonstrated the Saginaw philosophy was quite clearly: When in Oklahoma, do as the Oklahomans do—gamble and win.
