embers of the 1998-1999 UCO Faculty Senate elected new officers at the April 23 meeting in the University Center. The new officers are: •President—Dr. Jere Roberson, professor of history and geography, 'Vice President—Dr. Gayle Kearns, associate professor of occupational and technology education, 'Secretary /Treasurer—Dr. James Mock, associate professor of humanities and philosophy, •Reporter/Historian—Dr. Anne Gleason, assistant professor of finance. A parliamentarian will be appointed by Roberson next fall. Outgoing Faculty Senate President Dr. Roberta Sloan leaves the senate after four consecutive years of leadership—two as president and two as vice president. Sloan said during her tenure with the senate, the organization was a very proactive and vocal presence on campus, but she believes the tone will be quieter with the new administration. She said the senate can look forward to working under President Webb because of his vision and concern for the university. "Webb is easy to work with," said Sloan. "His decision to hire 44 new faculty at a time of financial difficulty shows his absolute commitment to the university." Sloan said she believes the new leaders of the Faculty Senate will do an excellent job representing the concerns of faculty and professional staff at UCO.

EDITORIAL

ix i now, orever ocial security. Usually when a generation-X'er hears that phrase they react with something between a yawn and a bitter laugh. Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin said the publicly funded program is looking at insolvency by the year 2032 unless Congress does something to increase revenue, decrease benefits or both. Recently, President Clinton and other lawmakers have been trying to address the problem of social security reform, saying the system can be made viable again. Numerous opinion polls say the public perceives that a collapse is inevitable. Frankly, when faced with evaluating a system that takes a whole lot more from most individuals than it will ever give back to them, any reasonable person will question the wisdom of continuing it. However, reasonable people will also want to provide assistance to retirees who rely on their social security income—no one wants to see elderly people starving. But do elderly people want to see their children and grandchildren work their entire lives, with no hope of retirement and no chance to build a nest egg, because of tremendous tax and social security burdens—burdens imposed on them by previous generations? For the first time since Nixon was in the White House, the federal budget is swinging from a deficit situation to a surplus —a surplus estimated at over $10 billion this fiscal year. Some legislators want to make points with voters by using the surplus to give tax refunds. Sounds good, but lets face reality and be smart about this—if we're going to continue to have social security, let's go ahead fix it once and for all.

Reader accuses Vista reporter of lying, questions newspaper's credibility

ebster gives a very simple definition of the word "quote". He says "to quote" means to repeat the words of another. He does not say that "to quote" means to say something about the same, nor does he say it means to embellish or add to the words of another. Yet, that is exactly what The Vista did in an article printed a few weeks ago. Let me begin at the beginning. Recently, as Curtis Hilburn and I were entering the Education building we were stopped by a young man who said he was doing a "research paper" and wondered if we would answer a question. He wanted to know our opinion of the proposed bill to ban homosexuals from teaching in public schools. Mr. Hilburn said, "As long as they do their job well in the classroom, I suppose that's all that matters." THAT IS ALL HE SAID! The gentleman asked if he could quote him. Thinking this was

for a research paper Mr. Hilburn said "yes." The young man then asked me what I thought. I replied, "Well, I really haven't thought about it but what he said makes sense." Again THAT IS ALL I SAID! Imagine out surprise today when we saw that we were quoted, or misquoted in The Vista. I will concede that maybe (and this is a stretch) the young man said "I'm doing research for the paper" instead of "I'm doing a research paper." But he never told us he was a reporter for The Vista. This however, is my secondary concern. I want to know how two sentences could be stretched to six paragraphs! Neither one of us mentioned anything about "performance in the bedroom" or that we were "disappointed with the state" or "that the state had no right to dig into personal lives." In fact, there was only one word in that quote that I actually said!!

EDITOR'S NOTE

In another article in the same issue you reported on the fact the a journalism department is only credible if it has a newspaper. I beg to differ. I think a journalism department is only credible if it has a CREDIBLE newspaper. I will never talk to another reporter and I will be wary of anyone doing "research papers." If your reporters cannot read their own writing once back at the desk, perhaps you should buy them tape recorders. You might have guessed by now, I'm furious! You might consider this act as embellishment, or maybe you needed more words to take up more space, or perhaps our quotes were too boring for you. I consider it LYING, which in the least is unethical and is probably illegal. I expect an apology in print or I will pursue this further.

scandal will envelop UCO this week and administrators won't try and hide it. In fact, they are hoping all students, faculty and staff will check it out. April 30 through May 3, the university will expose the awardwinning play School for Scandal at Mitchell Hall Theatre. The play will begin at 8 p.m. April 30-May 2 and at 2 p.m. May 3. The theatre is located on the southwest corner of the campus, near the Music Building. "The characters in School for Scandal are delightful and outrageous. This is a very witty play," said Dr. Don Bristow, director. "It is also a very eye

UCO theatre arts department exposes new production appealing play in terms of setting and has beautiful costumes." Performed by members of the theatre arts department, Bristow said the scandalous play promises an upbeat, fun experience for audience members. It's a classic British comedy of manners, which may be best described as the National Enquirer tabloid meets the 18th Century England. The main plot of the two-hour play centers on a host of characters who aren't quite who they seem, but have the time of their lives telling tales and sorting through rumors. But Bristow said there are several subplots throughout, which will put audience

members on the edge of their seats with intrigue and laughter. School for Scandal includes dubious characters Lady Sneerwall and her entourage of cronies who, love designing a good scandal, juxtaposed against Charles Surface, an unlikely lover, and Joseph, a surprising money-grubbing fiend. Both Joseph and Charles seek the longterm company of Lady Maria Teazle, a very wealthy ward. But their true natures are unveiled in jaw-dropping fashion with the arrival of an unexpected guest who sets all sorts of hilarity into motion.

Tickets cost $8 for the general public, $3 for senior citizens and $2 for non-UCO students. Admission is free for UCO students, faculty and staff with valid school identification.

Group projects equal individual progress By Penny Hubbard StallWriter

t's the end-of-the-year crunch for many students. Papers, homework and studying for finals are beginning to pile up. But there is one more thing that professors could assign students to make this time of year more difficult—group projects. For students, time seems to be one of the many complaints about working with others on a group project. "I was up until 5 a.m. doing a group project for a class," said Macrae Brunker, junior. Brunker has three group projects to complete this semester. Nikki Males, senior, who also had three group projects this semester, said that it was hard to fit a group project meeting into everyone's schedule. "You have to go to school and then to work, and then meet with your group after that," said Males. "When are we supposed to do other homework?" Junko Murakami, senior, said that working with groups is hard because of

the people in the group. "It is hard to work together because people don't show up for groups," she said. Nigel Harris, senior, said that most every class has a group project and one student in the group usually gets the shaft. "It would be better if everything you produced you put your name on it," he said. Other students felt that group projects were a benefit of college. "It's not a bad idea," said Harris. "More and more each job is diverse and you will work with people that speak different languages." Harris also said that students can get ideas from working with others. Jan Chapel, coordinator of counseling services, agreed. "Working in a group may help the more forceful personalities see that the more quiet ones have excellent ideas," she said. "Everyone will have different ideas and see things differently." Harris said that working with people

`Big brother' installed at UCO computer labs By Lisa Tatum S7affWilfrx

surveillance camera installed in the Liberal Arts Computer Lab will help lab technicians troubleshoot computer problems from a distance. The camera, installed in the lab in Room 125 about two weeks ago, allows computer technicians to monitor the lab, said Keith- Bowden, director of educational technologies for the College of Liberal Arts. An intercom system was installed as well, in case someone needs - help on a computer, he said. Another surveillance camera was installed in the Liberal Arts Building to monitor the new ATM machine there. Five two-way cameras are also located in various computer labs in other buildings to facilitate communication between_ technicians and instructors who might have computer problems or questions. "CU—SeeMe" is a software program that works with a camera attached to a computer monitor. The person at the computer can see and talk to someone at another computer hooked up to the program. The program is helpful to technicians in remote locations on campus because it allows the lab technician or instructor using the lab to work directly with a technician in the Liberal Arts technology office, said Bowden. "It allows you another dimension," he said. "You can see them and speak to them and you can actually see their desktop to correct the problem remotely." Though the primary function of the new cameras is to aid in troubleshooting computer problems, Bowden said they will also be used to monitor the labs. "If a lab worker steps out, they can call to ask someone to watch the lab on screen," said Bowden. The cameras can also record the room's activity for future reference. The surveillance cameras

record continually, he said. But the "See You-See Me" cameras only record if programmed to do so. Since recording takes up a lot of memory on the computers, Bowden said they won't be used for that very often. Bowden said the security factor of the cameras is beneficial, but theft deterrent wasn't the main reason they purchased them. "We've had a mouse or two

taken out of the labs, but we've been fortunate," he said, adding that the staff and the regular crowds in the labs are the main deterrent to theft. Three "See You—See Me" cameras are installed in the Liberal Arts Building. One is located in the Office of Information Technology and another is in the Computer Lab of the Communications Building.

MBA intersession helps students graduate earlier By Penny Hubbard Staff%lifer

he sooner they graduate, the better, say some masters of business administration (MBA) students, and that is just what the department is trying to help them do. In an effort to speed up the program to receive an -MBA, the college decided to offer intersession courses for the first time last semester. "We wanted to see if there was an interest, so we offered one class during the Christmas break," said Gloria Auth, director of the MBA program. "Students are responding favorably. We are attracting mostly working professionals â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a group we've been trying to reach in better ways." The first class offered was Legal Issues in Asia. Dr. David Harris, dean of the College of Business, who taught the class, lived and worked in Japan, and so has first hand knowledge, said Auth. "These classes also offer the faculty the opportunity to teach special topics of interest and in their areas of expertise," she said. Dr. Jim Thomas will be teaching a summer intersession course, "Ethics and Social Responsibility in Marketing."

"Thomas' dissertation dealt with ethics and services marketing, so this will be a great opportunity for the students to benefit from his knowledge," said Auth. Dr. David Harris will be teaching "Business in Asia" both at UCO and the downtown consortium for the fall

intersession. In addition to this class, the program will include "Work and Family Balance," taught by Dr. Christene Winkler. For the December 1998 break, the MBA program would like to sponsor a trip to Dallas, Texas to see the marketing process firsthand.

Students may be able to visit an ad agency and the Frito Lay Company, to see their new product development, their distribution system and manufacturing processes. According to Auth, students would spend a full week in Dallas, and then come back to the campus for classes to discuss

the experience. "These classes are designed to be intensive and fun," said Auth. "It is a great opportunity for students." For more information about the MBA program, call Gloria Auth, director of the MBA program at 341-2980, Ext. 24224

BYU won't be suiting up for any championship Sunday's By Joe Baird C011egeleSSSMOCO

SALT LAKE CITY—Beginning with the 1998-99 sports seasons, the National Collegiate Athletic Association will allow its schools to compete for championships on Sunday. But Brigham Young University won't be suiting up. The NCAA on Wednesday eliminated a 35-year-old rule that banned Sunday play in most postseason tournaments. Several of BYU's athletic programs could be affected by the change, particularly the non-revenue sports. Football and men's basketball, BYU's big athletic revenue producers, are expected to be the least affected. But officials at the Latter-Day Saints Church-owned school are adamant on one point: If the NCAA's scheduling philosophy has changed, theirs hasn't. "This decision will have no effect on BYU's policies against Sunday competition," said BYU athletic director Rondo Fehlberg, referring to the Church's admonition to keep the Sabbath day holy. The vote by the NCAA board of directors _ composed of 14 presidents from Division I colleges _ was not unexpected. BYU officials have been aware of the possibility for the past two months, when a petition for a change by college golf coaches began moving up the NCAA's bureaucratic ladder. BYU braced for the worst when the NCAA's Management Council, made up of athletic administrators, voted unanimously in favor of Sunday competition last week.

"The board is sensitive to the interests of those schools that have policy prohibiting Sunday competition. Those are legitimate institutional issues," said Syracuse University President Kenneth Shaw, the NCAA board chairman. "However, to single out Sunday as the only day of accommodation ignores the interests of other schools and places a difficult burden on the management of championships competition and the academic best interests of other studentathletes." Simply, the needs of the many overrode those of the few. BYU and Campbell University, a Baptist school in North Carolina, are the only Division I institutions that forbid their athletes from competing on Sunday. The Sunday ban, which dated back to 1963, has long been known as the BYU Rule. BYU has the right to appeal the rule change. "We are reviewing all of our options," said Fehlberg. But school officials indicate they will probably accept the board's decision and move on. To what, is the question. If football and men's basketball appear to be in no immediate peril, the same cannot be said of BYU's non-revenue, or Olympic, sports. BYU's nationally-ranked golf team could be impacted as early as next year, the soonest the NCAA golf championships could be changed to include Sunday play. Tennis, track and field and baseball could also be affected. BYU has, or has had, nationally-ranked programs in all of those sports. The BYU baseball

team's inability to compete on Sunday in the College World Series was the reason the Sunday ban was initiated. "The discouraging aspect of this is that BYU will have teams that will qualify for postseason competition and may not be able to .play," said BYU President Merrill Bateman. And that would be exactly the case. "If one of our athletes gets through the qualifying heats to make the finals, and if the finals are held on a Sunday, he won't compete in the finals," said BYU men's track coach Willard Hirschi. Baseball and men's and women's basketball already have Sunday competition in regional tournaments, but those sports have always made bracketing and scheduling allowances for qualifying BYU teams. In other sports, there is a fear that Sunday conflicts could eventually lead BYU to drop or de-emphasize certain sports. BYU men's golf coach Bruce Brockbank fears recruiting top prospects will be nearly impossible without assurances of competing for a national championship. "It's going to take a unique individual to come in here and say, 'I want to play for you, no matters what happens,' " Brockbank noted. BYU won the 1981 NCAA golf championship. Since finishing fifth in the 1991 tournament, the Cougars have not made the 15-team cut for the last two days of NCAA competition. "As competitive as golf is, there's no guarantee you're going to get there," Brockbank acknowledges.

Yet his program is on the upswing, with several talented young players. They naturally might consider transferring if they know they can't play in the NCAAs. "That's the only tournament that's important all year," said freshman Billy Harvey. "If it came down to where they did it on Sunday every time, I don't know what I'd do." Former BYU star Johnny Miller, however, said the NCAA ruling "is not going to affect the Miller boys." Miller will have three sons on the Cougar team next year _ Andy, a sophomore who's reigning WAC champion; Scott, returning from a church mission, and Todd, a high school senior. Track athletes, Hirschi says, view the NCAA meet differently than golfers. "One meet isn't that significant for our athletes. It would not be that big of a deal for our international athletes, and for our LDS athletes, it comes down to 'Choose you this day whom ye will serve. " In that sense, says one BYU the NCAA's lifting of the Sunday ban crystalizes the issue: Do prospective athletes want the environment and standards BYU has to offer, or do they want to compete for a potential national championship? "There's no longer any wiggle room," he said. At least, the Cougars won't have to worry about their own conference scheduling them into Sunday conflicts. "Even though it has not been addressed, I'd anticipate we would continue to honor BYU's policy," said WAC Commissioner Karl Benson.

UCO sophomore shares her recent blood donation experience By Steven E. Wedel Staltift'a

ave you ever thought about donating blood? - Does the thought of a needle sliding into your skin bother you? What about the sight of blood—your blood—running out of your body through a rubber hose? Last Thursday, Wendy Werber, 20, a journalism / advertising sophomore, agreed to donate blood for the first time—and let The Vista follow her through the process. On the walk from the Communications Building to the University Center, Werber was calm. She said she was a little nervous, "only because of the pain." But added that the butterflies were "not too bad." Inside the UC, Werber met with Jennifer Laws, a volunteer from UCO who was helping the Oklahoma Blood Institute (OBI) collect donations. Laws took Werber's personal information and gave her instructions on

"It was pretty painful," Werber said. "It lasted longer than the [finger] prick." She remained very alert and attentive while she lay on the table. "It's hard to believe that's my blood," she said as she watched the crimson fluid drain into a bag. When it was over, Werber's arm was bandaged and she was allowed to sit up. She had been on the table for five or six minutes. "She did real well," 'Said Veretta Parker, an OBI technician. Parker said a normal donation takes between five to eight minutes. "I feel fine," Werber said as she enjoyed a box of juice and some cookies provided by OBI. "I can't do the things I want for two hours, but that's okay. I was going to go work out after this. "I'd do it again," she said. "It's always good to have an excuse to eat sugar." So saying, she ate another cookie and went home.

The blame game Keating wrong to blame modern kids for his generation's faults

hen Gov. Frank Keating looks in the mirror I doubt he blames the reflection for the fact that he's missing some hair. However, in a column from the Wall Street Journal, dated April 10, the governor blamed popular entertainment for several things, including the recent shootings in Jonesboro, Ark. In the article, "Mayhem Culture," Keating mentions the Jonesboro shooting, then quotes a Marilyn Manson song called "Lunchbox." "Did the Jonesboro boys listen to this song?" Keating asks. "We don't know," is his answer. No, we don't know. Keating goes on to talk about similarities between his own upbringing and that of one of the alleged assailants from the Jonesboro shootings. Like one of the boys, Keating was once 11 years old, familiar with guns; a churchgoer and the product of an intact family. The differences, Keating says, are in the popular culture. He mentions several movies that were popular when he was 11 Mr. Roberts, Oklahoma!, etc. He juxtaposes those against Beavis and Butthead Do America and Teenage Catgirls in Heat. Yeah, I've never heard of that one either. —

With songs, he sings the praises of Bill Haley and the Comets' "Rock Around the Clock" while condemning Manson and others, like Constipated Monkeys. Our governor should realize that he can't rock the clock around backward. Yes, Manson is beyond the edge of what most people see as normal—but so was Bill Haley and the Comets 45 years ago. When he was 11, Keating continues, school was opened with a prayer. He says that if the schools of Jonesboro had opened with a prayer, maybe the shootings wouldn't have happened. Maybe if it had rained the Dust Bowl wouldn't have happened, either. Like it or not, our Constitution says we will not force religious beliefs on anyone, and the Supreme Court has ruled several times on matters of religion, and school. The decisions have overwhelmingly favored separation of the institutions. In his closing paragraph, Keating reminds us that he was once a prosecutor

and he says he feels confident he could indict popular culture as an accessory to the Jonesboro murders. First of all, that was already tried. Not long ago the family of a boy who committed suicide tried to sue the heavy metal band Judas Priest because they felt the band's song, "Beyond the Realms of Death" made their boy kill himself. Drug use and parental neglect were probably to blame. The judge dismissed the case. Every generation looks at the generations following and wonders what went wrong. Who should really. be blamed for the "popular culture" that is influencing the Jonesboro murderers' generation? It is people Keating's age who are making the films, who are controlling the recording studies and who are the television executives. It is people like him, influenced by such devils as Bill Haley and the Comets, Elvis Presley and Leave it to Beaver who are feeding the minds of present-day killers.

It sounds to me like Keating is echoing the sentiments of the people who tried to stop Bill Haley in the early 1950s—rock and roll has got to go. Does he expect the youth of today to embrace that idea in a way that he didn't? Keating goes on to point out that in the wild song, "Rock Around the Clock," the rebellious teens are only staying out late and dancing. Today, he says, the lyrics are telling kids to kill people. Well, why not? The fall from grace for American youth started in the 1950s, if we want to use Keating's evidence. Those kids who were staying out late to dance the night away turned to drugs and free love in the 1960s. Then those people got into our government and did things like make abortion legal, teach grade schoolers about sex and try to legalize marijuana. Since Keating's generation came of age and finally moved off that muddy field in Woodstock and into the real world, we have seen teen pregnancy skyrocket, abortions by the million, illiteracy among high school graduates, the AIDS epidemic, and an increase in violent themes in popular culture. Keating's generation has taught us well.

Psychology students win awards By Kimberly McLeod Student

wo UCO students returned to campus with awards recently after attending a nine-state regional competition at the 44th Annual Southwest Psychological Association in New Orleans. Angie MacKewn placed second in the Graduate Paper Competition, and Chad Watts placed second in the Undergraduate Poster Competition, said Dr. Kathleen Donovan, assistant professor of psychology. Seventeen UCO students presented posters and formal papers on topics such as depression in homeless children, gender effects on date rape, and the effects of faculty attitudes toward athletes' absences. "The students had to go through a selection process just to be invited to present," said Donovan. "They were very well received and did a very good job of representing UCO," said Donovan. "We received lots of compliments and feed back." Melissa Schuchman and Nicole Weber's undergraduate poster was selected for publication, said Donovan, "It was a great trip. UCO's showing at the conference was really great," said Melissa Schuchman. "There were good speakers and projects; I'd do it again."

Instructor awarded for 'Dynamite Dick' By Sheri Tacker Staff

few weeks ago, a UCO professor was notified that .she had won an award for her original screenplay. Linda McDonald, UCO creative studies lecturer, was awarded, "Most Suitable for Filming in Texas," for her screenplay called, The True Exploits of Dynamite Dick. McDonald said the screenplay

is an historical adventure based on happenings in Oklahoma around 1912. Dynamite Dick is a fictional character who was paroled in 1912 to participate in a public service film that sheriffs produced about 1880's outlaws. "Passing of the Outlaws was a film made in 1912 or 1913 using actual sheriffs and outlaws who were paroled for the time it took to make the film," said McDonald. McDonald has been teaching

screenwriting at UCO since 1992 and has been writing screenplays for 10 years, she said. She is a first-time recipient of this award. She won the award as a result of entering the Lonestar Screenplay Competition in November 1997. "I just started entering contests last fall," said McDonald. "I entered four contests." There are five categories in the contest. They are:

Outstanding Script by a Texas Writer; Outstanding Script by a Non-Texas Writer; Outstanding Script with a Gay or Lesbian Theme; Outstanding Script by a Student; and Most Suitable for Filming in Texas. Jon Paul Buchmeyer, codirector of the competition, said the objective of the contest is to identify talented new writers and promote film production in -4( Texas.

Fashion Extravaganza raises scholarship money, highlights work of two UCO student designers By Christine Woodard StudentwriV:

esigner fashions were the highlight at the second annual Fashion • Extravaganza Expressions! Impressions! sponsored by the UCO Fashion Troupe and Fashion Oklahoma held at UCO recently. The proceeds from the event benefit UCO's Fashion Marketing Program. Although the Fashion Troupe has not gotten a final total for the money raised from the show, Dr. Stufflebean said the group plans to use the proceeds toward scholarships. At their last show, the Fashion Troupe raised $1500, which enabled them to award three $500 scholarships to its members. "Two scholarships were given last fall and one this spring," said sophmore Lori Crouch, president of Fashion Troupe. She recently found out that she is the recipient of the $500 scholarship for this spring semester. The show highlighted two UCO student designers. Hiram McDaniel, a recent UCO graduate who majored in Formation Art, presented his ethnic ensemble, which he designed during the Basic Clothing Construction course. He also displayed an ornate handcrafted cane he designed. Senior fashion marketing major Carol Fletcher presented two of her designs, which included a wedding gown and an after-five dress. The Fashion Extravaganza showcased the Museum Collection Designs modeled by Troupe members. The museum pieces are a collection of designer dresses from past decades that have been donated by Oklahoma City area society. The fashion collection includes pieces from top designers such as Bill Blass, Oscar De LaRenta, and Norell. The Oklahoma Fashion Group is responsible for getting the collection and have chosen UCO to display them, said Dr. Tana Stufflebean, professor of Human .

Environmental Sciences and sponsor of Fashion Troupe. "These pieces are on exhibit in the Human Environmental Sciences building and they are often used during instruction," she said. The Troupe members who modeled the designs of the ten featured Oklahoma designers

are: Deborah Hamlin, Cherry Tredway, Marni Phillips, Joetta Bryan, Diane Coady, Hilda Sutton, Linda Davis, Dee Downard, Iva Germany, Kit Willmann Daggs. • A reception followed'the show for those interested in Dr. Tana Stufflebean (center with hat) and others in the UCO meeting the designers and look Fashion Troupe model evening gowns at the Fashion at their creations up close. < Extravaganza.
