Sega bids good-night to Dreamcast

BY NATALIE SMITH

Staff Writer

t's "Game Over" for Sega Dreamcast. The video game giant, Sega announced that it will stop making the Dreamcast home video game, only a year and a half after it came out.

Sega Dreamcast is the only video game that allows its players to plug into the Internet with its 56K modem and Internet browser, to play games.

The games that can be purchased will continue to be produced for another 18 months, so owners of Dreamcast will not run out of software any time soon.

The Dreamcast will be discontinued due to the expense that comes along with competing with other video game makers, like Sony and Microsoft.

Cost of Sega Dreamcast will decrease by $50, going from $150 to $100 in the near future, but sales might not increase. Scott Starns, former UCO student, works at Randy's M&M in Edmond. He says, "Sega sales have always been weak, because they put out a system and then back off of it."

A UCO student tries out the Sega Dreamcast in a local Best Buy store. Sega will not be making the Dreamcast game due to increased competition in the video game industry.

Starns is not surprised that Sega Dreamcast didn't do that well. "Past experience with Sega probably throws people off.

Systems like Playstation do a lot better," he says.

Owners of Sega Dreamcast are not thrilled at the news of the discontinuation. "It happens. It sucks because they make the better games, but they don't sell them," said Cory Samples, junior

advertising major.

Jennifer King, senior English major said, "It seems like a rip off to spend money on a Dreamcast and games for it, only to have it pulled off the shelf a few months later."

All things must come to an end, and this is it for Sega Dreamcast. Soon it could be on a shelf along with Atari 2600 and the original Nintendo. •

Students find convernience in on-campus jobs

tudents in search of employment often look for a position that will fit into their school schedules, as well as providing valuable work experience and future business contacts. According to some UCO students, working on campus fulfills those needs.

Lacy Lodes, a sophomore philosophy and women's studies major, works in the University Center Programs and Promotions office.

"I think it [working on campus] is good because it keeps me involved. I am making a lot of contacts I can use when I graduate," said Lodes.

Students outraged over campus alcohol party was amazed to find that alcohol related offenses have risen 1200 percent from 1998 to 1999, 62.5 percent more than drug and weapon violations combined.

Marilyn Kreidler thinks this is a good time for "The university to test the water." Do University Relations Bill Wiseman and Marilyn Kreidler really believe this is in the best interest of our campus when you look at the statistics? Do they realize that 89 percent of all statewide university related date rape and date violence involve alcohol and 76 percent of all statewide university related crimes involve alcohol? Is it in the students best interest that UCO not only condones the use of alcohol on campus, but sponsors it?

In speaking with Mr. Wiseman, he informed me that Edmond, as a community would like to have access to our University Center Ballroom for community events.

Further more, that UCO's catering company, according to UCO policy, would be catering these events. Mr. Wiseman told me "they are an enterprise." They may be enterprise, but the real question is: should they make money at the expense of the integrity of UCO and the safety and well-being of its students?

Mr. Wiseman indicated to me that "this does not effect the campus, just the University Center's Ballroom." The University Center Ballroom is on this campus and the UCO is either a dry or a wet campus.

Mr. Wiseman cannot have it both ways, and if he is willing to compromise and encourage UCO to become a wet campus again for the sake of "enterprise," is he willing to Yours truly, do so in spite of the statistics that so Shawn Gollob blatantly reveal the detriment that senior, political science major alcohol has on this campus?

n Feb. 14, 2001, the administrators of our university once again proved that it is willing to put its own policies and students on hold in exchange for money. The "alcoholfree campus" policy was disregarded so the university could attract donors. The university issued a onetime waiver to sponsor "Paint the Town Red," but continues to refuse issuing the same waiver to student organizations.

The administration has forgotten that the students have already donated money by paying tuition.

After all, we could have chosen to attend another school. President Webb seems so caught up in the idea of making UCO a Division I school, that he has forgotten the students here. Just ask the members of the track team.

The administration will naturally respond by saying UCOSA is the students' voice, but they are hardly representative of the average UCO student. That doesn't even take into account the fact that much of the legislation passed by UCOSA gets knocked down by the administration anyway.

The university and its president need to spend more time and money helping the current students rather than using the excuse of building toward the future. What kink of future can this university have if the students decide to go to another school? Since we're talking about the future, President Webb, why not consider that unhappy students now will become reluctant alumni donors in the future?

Students scramble for last Napster downloads as court decides fate

BY SARAH ROBERSON

Staff Writer

W

ith an appeals court ruling Monday, Feb. 12, stating that Napster must prohibit users from downloading copyright material, many UCO music fans have been pouring into the service to access online music for the last time.

For many college students, Napster's fate means more money to be spent purchasing music that they would usually get on the net.

"I think it's terrible because a lot of

people download music for free," said Tammarah Noel, sophomore speech pathology major.

Millions of college students from across the country have been busy buying CD burners for their computers and downloading Napster's songs since it's arrival to the music scene. Thus, some feel that money and entertainment will be lost to users who log on to Napster daily.

The possible termination of the online music site could have been prevented, according to some students.

"I don't think [Napster closing down] is good because companies should have

checked into it before Napster got online," said Artoya Huggins, sophomore nursing major. "If they had checked on it before Napster got online, then it never would have come to this."

According to writers on the AP wire, Napster will fight to stay open to the public, although their fate is almost entirely decided.

"I can kind of understand how some of the artists and recording companies feel about downloading free music," said Barry Antwine, graduate criminal justice major.

"They are the ones losing money." •

The slips provide the students with the number and name of the contact person.

After that, it is up to the student to get an interview.

"Appearance does matter when a student goes on an interview," said Dugar.

"Employers like to be able to see your face, so ball caps are not a good idea."

I do not want to wax conservative about the state of youth today (there's enough of that going around); however, I have noticed a disturbing trend among my students in the last several years of teaching that I'd like to get this malaise I'm feeling off my chest. The trend is so noticeable that it is often given a diagnosis by more postmodern oriented critics and is called "slacking," a whole generation was even named under this label — Generation X, even with a film about them aptly titled Slacker.

What is it with this generation?

Conservatives might say, they are lacking in discipline because they've never had to do without anything, even interaction, a computer replete with modem and cable TV sits right by most of their bedsides.

Why is it when I come into class and discuss popular music's relationship to civil unrest (the youth movement of the 1960s, the civil rights movement, etc.) in our culture, or even attempt to meet them on their own terms of rave, techno, alternative and grunge music, that I am often met with a hollowness that is deafening.

Students today seem to be quintessentially postmodern: surface oriented, looking at style rather than substance, connecting to digital rather than inter-personal space, short attention spans that have been nursed by a "screenal" rather than a parental culture.

They are indeed a mass mediated generation that has grown up on a lot of junk food popular culture, such as the anti-intellectual and anti-social antics of Beavis and Butthead, or the classic Hollywood production of South Park and Jim Carrey's revealing film title: Dumb

and Dumber.

My courses address, with a critical gaze, this vast terrain called popular culture, but is the academy

also succumbing to the "Big Mac" theory that people are so addicted to popular media fare that they have lost not only the will to challenge social inequities but also their discriminating taste for finer things. I get nervous after offering my opinion sometimes in an atmosphere of opinion-less-ness.

Don't we owe our students more than to give them a McEducation?

Don't we really need to show them that having an opinion, taking a stand is at the very least a sign of someone who is educated.

Education comes from the Latin verb "Educare" meaning to lead one out of themselves, to "go beyond" and test yourself to a higher level of knowing and meaning.

I cannot claim at all to diagnose this postmodern malady of the human spirit; but I do think that education is not just taking notes like a robot (on not taking in anything at all), it also means following up on ideas that potentially can transform yourself.

Education means caring about the human condition and realizing that we don't live in a vacuum but that our being-in-the-world and in the classroom does count!

Furthermore, education is being responsible and having an opinion about things. So, think about what that blank stare may mean to the professor who is laboring to education you next time.

We all have errands to run, bills to pay, movies to watch, but how do I learn to be an active participant in my own learning process? Remember when you are sitting in front of the boob tube, giving your attention for an entire evening that you are making a choice. You might consider based upon what you watched, how this experience transformed or educated me.

One unfortunate consequence of our increasing mediated culture is the very real problem of "aliteracy," not choosing to read even though I can. How can I know what's going on in class if I do not choose to read the chapters?

How can I pass a test with a decent grade if I do not care about the intellectual inquiry?

The indiscriminate pursuit of any goal produces mediocrity; however, the concerted desire to reach a particular goal will produce achievement beyond any ever imagined. •

SPORTS BRIEFS Women lose to Southeastern

Sports Writer

CO baseball opened the 2001 season with a doubleheader on Saturday, Feb. 17 against Missouri Western (MWSC) at Broncho Field.

The Bronchos made their presence on the diamond known, beating MWSC, 9-6.

Matt Wright hit a three–run homer in the bottom of the seventh inning to break a 6-6 tie and put the Bronchos ahead for good.

Rod Richardson went 3–for-4 at the plate, including two doubles, and UCO pitcher Ricky Belk started the season with a win.

UCO dropped the second game of the double header against Missouri Western, 13-8.

The Golden Griffons' bats were on fire as they belted 13 hits.

UCO, with a 3-2 lead in the top of the third inning, watched as MWSC thundered back with four runs, taking a 6-3 lead.

UCO pitcher Blake Honeycutt suffered the loss in the second game.

Ray Danzy had two hits, including a homerun and three RBI's to lead the Bronchos. •

The Bronchos gave Southeastern Oklahoma all it could handle before dropping a 78-68 decision. UCO led only once at 2-0, but never let SOSU get too far ahead and was within three points in the final minutes before the Lady Savages pulled away in the closing seconds.

"I was extremely proud of the way the players competed," UCO coach John Keely said.

"It's been a struggle the past few weeks, but the girls didn't quit and we came out and played really well tonight to give ourselves a chance to win."

The Bronchos fell to 9-15 overall and 1-9 in the LSC North with their fifth straight loss while the division-leading Lady Savages improved to 19-4 and 9-1.

Wrestlers end regular season ranked third

Senior infielder Matt Wright waits for Missouri Western's Kyle Mills to deliver the pitch on Feb. 17 at Broncho Field. In the first game of the doubleheader, Wright slammed a three-run homer in the bottom of the seventh inning to break a 6-6 tie and give UCO the win, 9-6.

Central Oklahoma stayed No. 3 in the final regular season NCAA Division II Wrestling Coaches' Association Top 20 poll that was released Wednesday, Feb. 14.

Nebraska-Omaha was the unanimous No. 1 pick after receiving all eight first-place votes and finishing with 160 points in balloting of coaches from around the country.

Defending national champion North Dakota State stayed second with 152 points and the Bronchos remained third with 144 points.

UCO finished the dual season 13-2-1 and now prepares for the Midwest Regional on Feb. 24 in Moorhead, Minn.

That tournament, which the Bronchos have won 11 consecutive times, serves as a qualifying meet for the 2001 NCAA Division 11 Wrestling Championships on March 9-10 in Greeley, Colo.

UCO has five individuals ranked in the top eight at their respective weight class, led by top-ranked and defending national champion Mark Dodgen at 125 pounds. The Bronchos also have 149 Gable Sullivan and 184 Muhammed Lawal both ranked second, while 133 Cole Province is rated fifth and 141 Joe Schneider seventh.

Alcohol: Citations issued for sales

Perez says he feels bad about letting his place of business down.

"Nobody did anything wrong except me and the other people who got caught," Perez said.

"We are all just college students just paying for our tuition. I'm just trying to get through college with as little hassle as possible."

"If another person employed at Outback serves alcohol to minor they will be arrested," Perez said, " and I feel bad about that."

"I hate that the Outback now has a reputation for serving alcohol to underage people," Perez said. "I wasn't upset at the restaurant, and I wasn't upset at my $200 ticket.

I was upset at the fact that I screwed up."

"Some people who got in trouble may feel like they were set up, but it was their responsibility to ID people," Perez said.

Another citation was given to Chad Dimmick, a clerk at Kickingbird Wine and Spirits Liquor Store.

Tim Baugh, owner of the store, was present the night Dimmick was ticketed. Dimmick was manning the cash register, and his supervisor was checking IDs at the door.

"I know Chad thought that she [the supervisor] had already IDed the boy when they came in through the door. We check IDs at the door because it is against the law to allow people under 21 in."

"When you get swamped, you can't catch everybody. We hope they test us again, and we meet the challenge," Baugh said.

Police say the informant purchased a bottle of liquor, but was never asked for identification.

One person who they targeted, a waiter at Bennigan's, was not served with any citations because he left work before they arrived to make contact with him.

Turner says the waiter served them Crown and Coke without checking the informant's identification.

The waiter may face felony charges and an arrest warrant due to this being Bennigan's second offense, Chu said.

U. Of Iowa Officials Allow Pep Band To Go Ahead With 'Beer Song'

4 Number of the 614 arrests of protesters at last year's presidential conventions that have led to criminal convictions

et the good times flow. After a threeweek hiatus, the "beer song," a staple for more than 20 years at University of Iowa sporting events, is back.

University officials had previously asked the school's pep band to abstain from singing the lyrics to the polka song "In

Heaven, There Is No Beer," which contains references to alcohol use, so that they could review the merit of the song.

But after reviewing the pros and cons of the song's content, and after fielding scores of e-mails from students, officials decided that shelving the song's lyrics was not necessary,

spokesperson Linda Kettner confirmed.

Kevin Kastens, the band's director, told the Daily Iowan that the song is "a very harmless tradition and should continue."

The decision to halt the song stemmed from a complaint by one parent that the lyrics promoted

"excessive drinking."

The song, which has undergone numerous renditions, includes the lines, "In heaven, there is no beer / That's why we drink it here," and has similar verses for wine, drugs and sex. •

minority students, determine their own educational destinies," he says in the text of his speech, released Friday.

This is the second time faculty have been asked to consider dropping SAT I as an admissions requirement.

The earlier effort never reached the Board of Regents.

The president also has asked the UC system's Academic Senate to consider replacing the "narrowly defined quantitative formulas" — based in part on SAT scores — now used to admit most students with a more comprehensive, "fairer" admissions system that considers all of a student's accomplishments.

Eventually such a proposed change would have to be approved by the regents. If it were accepted, the change probably could not be put into place before the fall of 2003.

Education experts and civil rights advocates hailed the president's plan as a positive step. The same groups have long criticized the multiplechoice SAT as biased because it measured a student's general knowledge rather than what they have learned in class.

University officials acknowledge their own data shows the SAT I is not the best predictor of success in college.

"Generally we find that high school grades are the best predictor of performance at the university," spokesman Brad Hayward said. That is especially true when combined with performance on tests such as the SAT IIs, which assess students' grasp of course work in subjects ranging from English to math.

Until a replacement test is last year during a visit to a classroom developed for the SAT I, Atkinson of 12-year-olds at an unnamed, proposed continued using the SAT II upscale private school.

I easily spend four or five hours a day on the internet. Granted, part of that is for work, but not all of it. What should I do? Have I got a problem?

— Too Much Time Online

Come Back From Spring Break With A Hot Job.

DearWe+Ju nkoe Yes, of course you have a problem. Anyone who asks a humor columnist for advice is wrought with problems (attention readers: keep asking humor columnists for advice so I can keep getting paid).

Internet addiction is basically a surrogate social life, one that is much easier to attain than a 'normal' one. The ease at which one can log onto the net and keep entertained makes it that much harder to tear yourself away for flesh-and-blood interaction, like parties, bowling and sex.

Is there an easy fix? No. There is a reason psychologists spend years of training and get paid thousands of dollars to help people break addictions. By comparison, humor columnists spend about 15 minutes learning our craft, and are frequently paid with Marlboro Miles and ramen noodles.

There are support groups online (really) to help you, but my advice is to go find a club, bar or park and get some time away from the screen.

Sooner or later you may get addicted to the real world.

And when you do, tell us about it by logging on to our forum at www.thevistaonline.com .* Is there a burning question that haunts your every waking moment?
