Jones said this project was six months in the making and is not a reaction to the investigation of items recently stolen from Old North. "A lot of what is being stolen is of minimal value. For example, we may have halfdollars and a couple of quarters and some change taken out of a desk drawer, but that is theft," Jones said. "We are trying to make sure we get an accurate accounting of what is going on and try to help people from losing their property. It is irritating as anything. You know darn good and well that you put money in that drawer and you come in and

he UCO Department of Public Safety (DPS) is investigating a recent string of thefts from Old North while at the same time beginning a new crime prevention program. DPS is distributing a list of crime prevention tips to all faculty and staff members, informing them of precautions they can take to protect their property and safety. Ted Jones, interim police chief, said the department is checking building alarms, access codes, and anything else that could result in a crime or unsafe act. "We have a problem with a lot of larcenies that have occurred," Jones said. "To some people, they are insignificant, but over a period of time they are a problem.

Fortunately, a seminar on fraud prevention will be held at UCO from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., March 9 in the University Center Ballroom, providing participants with the knowledge they need to prevent criminals from stealing their money. Sponsored by the UCO Center for Learning and Professional Development and the Oklahoma County Sheriff's Department, the seminar will

focus on ways that criminals commonly gain access to personal information, such as social security and banking account numbers. For instance, a criminal desiring a person's banking account and social security numbers doesn't need to go any further than a garbage can, said Nancy Galloway, representative of the sheriff's department "Most people throw away their bank statements, but that is one of the first places that criminals look for that kind of information," Galloway said. Most bank statements contain an account number and

somebody has helped themselves to it." DPS is currently investigating an employee from UCO's cleaning crew, Witt, Fiala and Flannery Custodial Services, for money stolen out of desks in Old North. Also under investigation is a ring valued at $2000 which was taken off of a desk. According to a police report, the ring, which had eight diamonds, belonged to Mary Monfort, professor of curriculum and instruction. She claimed she left the ring on her desk next to her telephone during the night and returned the next day to find it missing. Jones said cameras were temporarily installed in the building in an attempt to catch the thieves. Jones said mounted cameras in each building is a good deterrent for crime, but the responsibility for installing those cameras falls on the shoulders of each department. The fiber optic lines connecting each building make it possible for DPS to monitor the

cameras for security and safety, but the big drawback is money. Jones and Chris Wooldridge, police captain, said they have already received responses from the faculty and staff about the program.

"We have already received contact from people who may be starting a new project and they want us to check it to recommend security procedures. I think faculty and staff are going to take this seriously," Wooldridge said. Wooldridge said DPS will also tour every building on campus to compile a security survey of all, offices, and storage

areas. In a memo DPS sent out, Wooldridge said, "During this survey representatives from DPS will be looking at all aspects of the security of these areas to include doors, windows, alarm systems, security cameras, etc." "After the completion of the surveys, DPS will look at the overall security of your area and make recommendations of actions that could be, or should be, made within your area." Dr. Kay Powers, dean of math and science, said her department has already sent the survey back with ideas for better security and safety. "We are renewing and upgrading our efforts to improve security in the College of Math and Science Building. We appreciate the support of DPS and will definitely use the information provided to us," Powers said.

social security number. Criminals can use the information to establish fraudulent checking accounts, or imprint the information on counterfeit checks. Either way, the criminal with the knowledge of such information has full access to the victim's finances. This allows them to withdraw money from the victim's account or transfer money from the victim's account to their own. Some criminals also steal checks and engage in an activity known as "check washing", or stealing a check written to one person, erasing that person's name and inserting their own name so that they can cash the check. Galloway warned that criminals often target young adults for such scams. "College students, especially, seem to be very lax when it comes to protecting their identification," Galloway said. In addition to providing

information on ID protection, the seminar will also feature a uniform fashion show. Criminals sometimes use uniforms to convince potential victims to allow them into their home, Galloway said. The fashion show will consist of volunteers from a variety of state agencies and private businesses wearing their uniforms. The idea is to familiarize the audience with the uniforms of people who are often in residential areas — such as, the police, UPS and Oklahoma Natural Gas workers. "The uniform show will show people what kind of uniforms to expect and what ID should look like," Galloway said. "Anyone wearing a uniform should have credentials and a way for people to call and check on their legitimacy." Linda Smith, program manager of coordination development at UCO, said that many people make it too easy for criminals to gain access to

their personal information. "Your driver's license number and your social security number should never be the same," Smith said. If a person's drivers license is stolen, the criminal often has access to that person's social security number as well. The social security number can be used to gain access to personal information, including bank accounts. Registration for the seminar, which costs $3.50, begins at 8 a.m. in the University Center Ballroom. For more information, contact Linda Smith at 974-2543.

New chef's carvings add flare, creativity to campus food By Ann Jayne

Ferris is from Guthrie. He trained as a chef in Oklahoma City through t h e American Culinary Federation 12 years ago. He has cooked for several four-star hotels such as the Sheraton, Radisson, Marriott, and Grand Heritage. For the past eight months, Ferris worked for the

Doubletree Hotel in downtown Kansas City. He returned to Guthrie to be closer to his fiancee. She saw an ad for a chef at UCO in the newspaper and told him about it. Ferris has never worked for a university before. "I took this job to get a perspective of different food service operations," Ferris said. He is well-versed in preparing cultural foods, such as Chinese, Indian, Bangladesh, French, and

He wants to add variety and creativity to his meals and do "a lot of things they don't do at universities." "We're going to create a lot of new and exciting meals and bring in outside catering," Ferris said. The catering includes offcampus catering, banquets for inhouse groups and weddings. With his expertise, Ferris will be able to liven up dorm meals as well as buffets in the Oklahoma Room. He says he will add flare to his meals with flavor and through visual appeal. Ferris can make 100 different animals out of vegetables.

Professors support Keating's request to increase tuition Oklahoma State Conference of the Conference American Association of University Professors (AAUP) is siding with Gov. Frank Keating's proposed nine percent tuition hike in hopes of higher salaries for professors. Dr. Tom Guild, professor of general business and state AAUP executive secretary, said the group supports the proposal because they believe higher professor salaries will make UCO more competitive in the market of education. "If tuition is increased by nine percent there would be money in the system for the faculty to receive approximately a 2.5 percent salary increase," Guild said. "We have a lot of unmet needs and one of the ways we are going to be able to meet those needs is by increasing tuition. Guild explained salary increases are necessary because current salaries do not attract new professors to UCO.

"If we do not do something about it quickly it will become a very serious problem in attracting new faculty to Oklahoma," Guild said. According to the Office of Planning and Analysis, professors received a three percent base raise in January. The office also said the average income for UCO professors in 1998 was $55,841. The state average is $51,979 and the national average is $61,839. Guild said those numbers are accurate, but deceptive. UCO professors' contract years run from Sept. to May. Since the raise did not go into effect until Jan., it only amounted to a 1.6 percent increase. "UCO professors are still underpaid at every rank," Guild said. Guild said the importance of the increase in tuition is not just about potential salary increases but about better education and better students. "We have consistently worked

on the other end of the equation?" Guild said, "Which is making education affordable. At the state level, we have made increases for the Oklahoma Tuition and Grant Program (OTAG). For the last three years, OTAG has increased by at least a million dollars each year." "We do not see this as a winlose situation," he said. "We see this as a win-win situation where we can raise tuition and have enough money to upgrade technology, create better library holdings and invest in our people:' Other problems which the tuition increase could help, according to Guild, is to assist professors with other aspects of their job. Guild said many times professors are required to pay for activities that are not covered by the university. "To have a well-prepared professor, they need to remain current in their disciplines. One

good way to remain current is to put it into hiring more do research and present your administrators, or put it down some research findings at regional and other rat hole, that's not going to do it?"

Experts: seniors should plan for relationship failure By Christine Tatum

CollegePressighlet CHICAGO (CPX) - There's no time like right now to evaluate your current relationship, but before you do, two Ohio psychologists who have written a new book identifying problem male behavior insist first thing's first. "This goes for men and women," said Joseph Rock, a clinical psychologist for more than 18 years and co-author of Let's Face It, Men Are @$$#%\0$ What Women Can Do About It, sold for $12.95 by Health Communications Inc. "Pluck out the stars he or she planted in your eyes on Valentine's Day because that's the only way you're going to judge your arrangement objectively." With graduation rolling around in just a few months, many young couples are desperately trying to determine their next steps. Chances are increasingly slim

they'll end up married right out of school. In 1980, the median age for men and women tying the knot for the first time was 23.6 and 21.8 respectively. In 1994, those ages jumped to 26.7 for men and 24.5 for women. Those statistics suggest what many soon-to-be-graduates have lamented for years: painful spring break-ups on campuses everywhere. "It's coming," said Mark, a senior at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington who spoke under the condition of anonymity. "I love my girlfriend, but I'm not ready to marry her. I think we're going to have to go our separate ways, and that really sucks." Though breaking up is hard to do, parents, friends and healthcare professionals alike recommend that students focus more on leaving school to learn about themselves and the world and less on settling down.

"For most people just coming out of college, marriage is an unrealistic expectation," Rock said. "People are trying to get their careers started, and they're being exposed to a lot of new and exciting things." So, where does all of that leave someone who thinks they're in a committed relationship right now? Possibly nowhere, students and counselors say. "A lot of people think they're building something when they really aren't," said Anjali Williams, a graduate student and teaching assistant at the University of California at Davis. "They might think they're close just because they're sleeping together. And I don't want to knock the Greek scene, but if going to parties and hanging out in bars is all two people are doing together, that's really not much of a relationship. That's just having fun."

UCO punks rock the nation By David Brown StaftWriter o not be too quick to judge the guy with the crazy hair sitting beside you in history class, he might someday be a rock star. Unknown to many UCO students, Sophomore Andy Stensrud and Freshman Mike Kennerty are members of the Edmond band Mr. Crispy. For over two years, Mr. Crispy has been tearing up the Oklahoma punk scene with their pop hooks and love-torn lyrics. In that time, the band has released three seven-inch records on their record label, We're Not on a Label Records, housed in Mike's bedroom. Andy and Mike share a three bedroom apartment with drummer Chris Gaylor, keeping the band in the forefront of their everyday lives. Not only has Mr. Crispy recorded and released its own records (with a full length CD in the works), but it has also toured the nation. Mr. Crispy recently returned from a twoweek tour of the Southeastern United States in January. The tour took the band through Texas, Georgia, Florida, and North Carolina before coming home. Soon after the tour's end, Andy, Mike, Chris, and bassist Doug Barton, played their biggest show to date, opening for punk legends The Vandals in front of a 300-plus audience at The Hole, a club in Oklahoma

"I walk in, and Mike is selling merch with this expression I've never seen before on his face. And I go 'What's wrong, Mike?' And he goes, 'That's Jello Biafra!' And I was like, W0000W!" Andy said. As for the future of Mr. Crispy, Andy and Mike have sent copies of the band's records to labels but have yet to receive any response. However all three of their releases' have been sold through Mutant Pop Records and all have sold well. "We've sold over 100 records through Mutant Pop and almost 1000 total," Mike said.

UCO won eight out of 10 matches, four of them with pins last Saturday. the Bronchos final dual record stands at 11-4 going into the NCAA Division II Midwest Regional that will be held in Warrenburg, MO Feb. 27. UCO got first period pins from 174-pounder Tony Realmuto, 197 pound T.J. Tallent, and heavyweight Claude Davis. Jody Marple scored a second period for the Bronchos in the 157 pound

division. "Overall we did some good things and were aggressive from the start," David James, UCO head coach said. UCO lacked the talents of Jermiah Constant and Floyed Lorne, but Mark Henslick stepped in at 149 and came out with a 6-0 shutout. Tallent took over at 197 and won in 41 seconds. Realmuto won his match in just 40 seconds, while Davis only needed 48 seconds to dispose of his opponent. "It was a good way to end the dual season and now we need to get some people healed up to get ready for the regional," James said. UCO compete in the Division II Regional Feb. 27. The Bronchos finish at the Division II Championships March 12-13

or almost two semesters, UCO Food Court managers have promised better things to come for the eatery which sits on the main floor of the University Center. They repeatedly vowed to raise the level of service and quality of food; and they pledged to bring another nationally-known restaurant—Blimpie Sub and Salads—to campus. But actions speak louder than words. Food court managers have shown time and time again that their promises are as good as their dry and dissatisfying homestyle burgers. True, Blimpie Subs and Salads finally opened on campus yesterday; and students were given coupons offering a good 2-for1 deal on sandwiches. But this deal clearly is a case of too little, too late. Luckily, students have finally had their fill of broken promises. Some have even taken matters into their own hands to make sure people get what they want—an alternative to the food court. The alternative they've developed, Central Station Cafe, may be the best thing that's happened to UCO food service in a long while. It's student run and operated, will offer lunch time sandwiches, coffee and pastries, and will be open on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Human Environmental Science Building. Best yet, the managers of Central Station will likely do a better job of keeping their promises, because they want student business.

I know I'm not the most savvy Web-surfer around, but this is ridiculous. Last week I was looking up a Web page for a person named "Julie." I couldn't believe what I received for results. There were countless sites with titles such as "Buying Julie's Panties." (The others are so-graphic, I don't think they shotild be printed.) On another occasion, I was researching a paper, and I typed "whitehouse.com" into the site field. I know I can't be the only one Who's made this mistake. Expecting to be connected to a site pertaining to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, I was appalled to see six-inch nudie photos materialize on my computer screen. I quickly closed the site before someone called campus police on me. If it's so easy for a bumbling 22year-old to come across these sites by accident, imagine what a 12year-old could come across. Worse yet, imagine what a group of 12year-olds that were really trying to view smut could come across. This issue of pornography and other graphic material being posted on the Web is not only an issue for those of us who care about kids. It is also an issue that will affect every person's use of the Internet in the near future. A new federal law shields kids from commercial pornography on the World Wide Web, but many

people want to quash it as' unconstitutional. The issue is being debated in the courts and revolves around the Child Protection Act signed into law last. October by President Clinton, Dr. Ruth's poster boy for sexual addiction. According to a recent New York Times article, critics are saying that if the law goes into. effect, it would force a variety of Web site operators to choose between self-censorship and prison time. They feel that this is in violation of the First Amendment and fear the broadness of the language that is used in the law will cover other graphic, material that is not porn. On the other side of the issue, supporters contend that the law is necessary to prevent commercial sites from making graphic sexual images available to all visitors, including children. It is aimed at, free samples offered by pornography sites and does not seek to purge 'the Web of adult entertainment but to merely place it behind childproof electronic gates. C. Damon Hacker, a computer crimes investigator fort the. Air Force, presented a report on 10 adult Web sites that he found easily after typing in terms' like "porn" and "XXX." He said one site included an image of a woman well, you know. All of the images were obtained at no charge. This prompted me to do a little of

my own research. Out of a long list of dirty words, I chose the term "porn." I received hundreds of results including videos, lesbian and gay photos and live sex shows. The list doesn't stop there. The online porn industry has gone global apparently with sites like "Dutch porn," "Indian porn" and "Spanish porn." Perhaps the most disturbing subtitle I saw was "Teen sex 'chatroom." It was listed at least 40 times. The thought of there being that many opportunities for teenagers and surely young children to chat about pornography and sex is disgusting. The solution is to require age verification before such materials will be available. According to government officials quoted in the Times article, it will be easy and inexpensive to put questionable material behind age verification screens. We do not need to scour the Internet and rid it of adult entertainment; : that would be an infringement on First Amendment rights. However, we do need to stand behind the law so that those of us who choose to surf a porn-free Web can;.and those who want the whole enchilada can have theirs too. Think of it as Burger King for the World Wide Web — have it your way!

Sophomore preaches rational love, committment don't think you should marry someone just for love. Love fades." Laura Donyai, 19, has serious ideas about relationships. She has plans and standards. She thinks other people should give more consideration to their relationships. "Love that lasts is a decision, not a feeling," she said. "When I decide to love someone, I wake up every morning thinking that I will love him today." Laura has been dating the same man for four years. They've talked about getting married and they've talked about starting a family. The family will not come early. "I don't believe in sex before marriage," she said. "I'm keeping myself pure. I don't have to wake up in the morning wondering if I'm pregnant. When I hear someone talking about STDs, I don't have to wonder if I should get myself checked. I have enough other worries without those:' Abstinence means more than doing without sex to Laura It's a matter of self respect. "Guys may want to date girls who are easy, but they don't want to marry them. You can't expect someone to treat you better than you treat yourself?' Pre-marital sex often leads to emotional regrets, Laura said. "I recommend staying pure. There's a lot less heartbreak. I can think of five boys I wish I hadn't kissed, but I can't think of one I wish I had kissed?" Finding a life mate is serious business for Laura. Many factors should be considered. Couples should have a lot of similarities, such as religion, upbringing and future plans. Those things should be weighed before people decide to tie the knot. Laura also had a few more radical ideas. "I don't think anyone should get married before they're 20," she said. "You don't know who you are until after 20. "I think there should be a law that you have to know someone for a certain amount of time before you get married; maybe a year and a half?" Laura's parents had known each other for eight months when they got married. They stayed together until Laura was eight years old, then divirced. The ordeal was hard

on Laura, the oldest child. "Divorce makes the children grow up too early," she said. The loss of childhood can often lead to a life of regret. "A lot of times the child wants to go back and experience what they missed," Laura said. Once a spouse is found and the marriage consummated, a couple may start considering children. "The day you conceive a child, your life is not your own," Laura said. "Your life should be dedicated to that child until he's 18. It's the parents' responsibility to make that child's life as easy as possible." The parents should also set a standard for behavior. "You have to act in a manner that would make the child proud, or at least not embarrassed?" The parents should be held accountable for the childs' mistakes. "You are a model for the child's behavior. You have to ask yourself, `Is this how I want my child to grow up?'" Laura's children will have a high standard to live up to. She expects them to be good people that will follow the example she is already setting. "I'll raise them in a churchoriented environment and explain to them the pros and cons of other lifestyles?" Responsible parenting? That's a novel idea in a state with the second highest divorce rate; a state that executes criminals who killed as children. I hope it catches on.<
