The classes offer "desk-side assistance," Rolfe said. This service allows trained assistants to give one-on-one help if the student has problems specific to the student's needs. "Technology training is fairly new at UCO's campus," she said. "We felt like it was important enough to be able to offer this service campus-wide because we want people to know the latest software standard that is set for the campus." Rolfe said the classes fill up fast and enrollment allows only 20 students, so quick registration is advised. For more information, call Cynthia Rolfe at 974-2688.

welve eighth grade students from Guthrie visited campus on

Nov. 19. The students were invited to UCO as part of a mentoring program hosted by Students In Free Enterprise (SIFE). The Guthrie students are "at risk" students, said Dr. Billye Hansen, general business professor and SIFE faculty advisor. The mentoring program is a part of SIFE's mission to "Make a Difference," according to a recent news release. The students arrived on

campus at 9:30 a.m. to meet their mentor. UCO students volunteered to mentor a child for the day. The day began with the eighth graders attending class from 10 a.m. to noon. When asked if they were ready for school, a big "Uuhhgg" came from the group of eighth graders. However, as the "NTT/ day continued, their attitudes about school began to change.

After lunch, SIFE students took the eighth graders to the College of Business Administration (CBA) to play games associated with business. SIFE President, Zane Benson, introduced himself to the students and explained the games. The first game focused on team-building. The students gathered in groups of four and were given instructions to combine the skills of their team-mates to build a tall structure from plastic straws. However, there was a catch to the game. Each eighth-grade team member was given a disability. One team member was blind

In addition, none of the members were allowed to speak either. Benson instructed the group to use body language and nonverbal communication to collaborate with team members. The winning team built the tallest structure that could withstand a stability test. Michael Jones danced around, humming loudly when he realized how tall his team's structure was.

Home-schooled kids benefit from UCO labs

A

s part of its continuing community outreach efforts, the University of Central Oklahoma College of Mathematics and Science is offering lab time to area children who are home-schooled. Dr. Terry Harrison, UCO professor of biology and assistant dean of the College of Mathematics and Science, currently is teaching "Exploring Life Science Labs" to 25 homeschooled, junior high-age teens from Edmond, Guthrie, and Oklahoma City from 3 to 5 p.m. every other Tuesday. The course, which gives the teens the chance to explore biology in ways otherwise unavailable to them, includes the study of ecology, protozoa, invertebrate and vertebrate animals, bacteria, genetics, and other topics, Harrison said. "Previously, these teens relied on trips to the Omniplex for hands-on experiences with biology," Harrison said. "At UCO they can use our microscope and other technologies and resources to

better explore biology." The students' families are charged a $30 fee for their lab usage this fall. The fee covers materials and lab upkeep, Harrison said. "I don't receive extra money for my time," Harrison said. "I'm doing this because I know it's important," Harrison said. "If these students are going to really get interested in pursuing a career in biology or science, it is important for them to have good lab experiences early in their schooling." Lynda Earls, director of UCO Center for Learning and Professional Development (CLDP), has helped a great deal by facilitating the course, Harrison said. "CLDP has been a great

Hanging it up...

Seniors display final semester's work By Chieko Hara

StaffWriter It is "SHOWTIME." The Central Museum of Art and Design, located at the University of Central Oklahoma, was filled with variety of art work and people at Sunday's opening reception. Celebrating their Fall 1999 graduation, 14 art and design students are displaying their school year's art work in the museum. Divided into 14 individual spaces, each graduating student showed original works: graphics, paintings, prints, drawings, photographs, sculpture, jewelry, weavings, and artifacts. "Good show. Good quality," said Dr. Bob Palmer, chairperson of Visual Art and

Design. "SHOWTIME" represents the department well, he said. About 50 percent of the graduating students are graphic majors, he said. This is an unusual percentage compared to the past exhibition. More students are studying the graphic field, which is the largest and is distinguished from 150 majors in the department, Palmer said. This exhibition is the last opportunity to show the students' art work as well as to give feedback to the faculty, he said. "This is the best show that we've ever had. We are very proud," said Katherine Held, a graduating informative art major student. Some students were

explaining their art works to their audience; others were taking pictures with their families and friends at the reception. Art and design graduating students are Brenda BrownClemenz, Hsiao-Jung Chien, Steve Cooper, Shawna Haase, Maki Hashimoto, Katherine Held, Agnes Ho, Yi-Chen Hung, Ya-Ru Lei, Meng-Chuan Liu, Melissa Lowell, Lindy Nguyen, Wendy Smith, and N. Joyce Waggoner. The museum is open: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday; 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday; and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.

argEMBI During the holiday season people tend to over-indulge in rich, fattening foods. This unyielding feast leads to the annual battle of the bulge. It is not easy, but is possible, to prevent this yearly battle if one only avoids the temptation of the high caloric treats. By serving one's self smaller portions or by using a smaller plate to give the impression of more food, a person can overcome the desire to eat more. Avoiding the holiday pastries will also help maintain a person weight. This does not mean that a slice of pie or a piece of creamy fudge cannot be enjoyed during this festive time of the year. It means controlling the urge to "gobble" up the entire pie or platter of sweets. It should also be noted that one meal on one day will not cause the bugling waistline. Holiday dieting is not the answer. After all, the holidays are a time to celebrate. Why diet today while planning to party tomorrow?
