professor of finance, for service. Awardees can use the merit credits to purchase things that support their recognized achievements such as equipment, books and travel, said May, who oversees the committee in charge of selecting the annual winners. He said faculty are given application information at the beginning of each academic year and all full-time faculty
members, with the exception of those who serve on the selection committee, are eligible to apply. The selection committee, which consists of three faculty members from each undergraduate college and one representative from the Faculty Senate, review and score the applications each fall. Scoring is based on accomplishments including
development of new or innovative programs, uncompensated teaching loads, published manuscripts, leadership roles in professional organizations and sponsorship of student organizations. Funding for the award comes from interest income derived from funds donated to UCO for faculty and staff development, said May.

nternet access for every school in America. That's what the federal government is offering to the nation's K-12 public schools and public libraries. Kind of. The program, "E-rate," is designed to provide substantial discounts to the most impoverished school districts in the nation— districts like Oklahoma City.Sounds great, right? Not really. Not even when it's provided at up to a 90 percent discount. Especially not when the discount only applies to the connections for the Internet, and not for the actual computers to hook them to. The impoverished school districts designed to benefit the most from this plan are also the ones who are hard-pressed to provide the basics for their students—things like adequate and safe facilities and transportation. The Daily Oklahoman reported recently that of Oklahoma City's nearly 90 schools, the average age is 55. All of the older schools are in varying stages of disrepair. The Oklahoma City school bus fleet has been in the news several times. The age and condition of some of the buses have apparently resulted in accidents, raising serious safety issues. Children make up the largest percentage of the poverty-stricken in our country, and many go without necessities; sometimes they even go to bed hungry. Expenditures on technology are only advantageous to these children if they raise the quality of their education, and their lives. Spending vital funds on Internet access while buildings, buses and textbooks need to be replaced seems tantamount to.putting a high-tech Band-aid on a gaping wound.

t was very interesting to see a phone-sex advertisement on the last page of our student newspaper (Feb. 17 issue, p. 12, "Call Girls Live"). I wonder if the next step will be the ads of escort services, hit men for hire, and drug dealers. I realize that you are apparently broke and in desperate need of money. However, do we have to pay part of our student fees to a paper that prefers to be financed by the sex industry? Another thought: no offense, but maybe if the energy spent on using your editor's position to defend Steven's articles (about each of them) were dedicated to improving the quality of the newspaper, maybe you could get more decent businesses to place ads in it. This might be very harsh for you to hear, since I've noticed that you did not usually take criticism very well.

However, it might help to keep in mind that the negative feedback is just as much part of free speech as the right to publish the author who routinely backs up his arguments by his attitude instead of any actual knowledge. Maybe next time, before making statements about censorship when someone tells you they did like an article, you could benefit from holding back your wounded ego and consider what your readers have to say. After all, since The Vista exists for UCO students and on their money, we have all the rights to expect it to represent our opinions, even when they are the opposite of yours. And I'm sorry, but using editor's column to tell the readers that they are not supposed to dislike your articles (or anything else at UCO) is kind of childish. You could as well put a peithanent cartoon on the cover,
depicting, on one side the "griping students," and on the other both Steven and the Editor, in robes of holy crusaders against censorship, yelling back: "You are another!" Caption: "This is what we think of those who disagree with us." I don't expect you to publish this. However, if you keep either ignoring different points of view, or trying to attack them by calling it "griping," "censorship," or "absence of the sense of humor" people who like to think for themselves might stop reading your paper altogether. It might happen that even with the total lack of choice (due to the absence of an alternative student paper), the only readers you'll have left will be' the potential customers of the phone sex lines you advertise.
—Marina Yereshenko UCO student
the oncerning legislation attempting to limit 3.2 beer sales to between 6 a.m. & 12 a.m. The fact that concerns me regarding limiting the sale of beer is not the hours, it's the subtle facts beneath this. This bill does not limit the sale of beer after 12 in bars, it's still the same. So, if it's after 12 and I want to get a beer I have to go to a bar, where drinking beer is usually not cheap. And I'm a student and we all know what that means in terms of cash on hand. So, this bill limits people who don't have the money to go to a bar from buying beer, that includes me a student or the wino on the corner. This is the subtle discrimination inherent in this bill that I don't like. Exactly, the same kind of discrimination in the city ordinance passed in Stillwater banning beer on city
streets a few years ago. Passed, because of a student body unorganized and not funded enough to fight a city government trying to put a lid on Eskimo Joe's street parties. If lawmakers really wanted to fight drunken driving, it would make sense to ban all alcohol sales after 12, right? If I'm at the bar, I drink then I have to drive home that's called drinking and driving. If I'm at the grocery store and buy beer, I don't drink it there and then drive home, I take it home, then drink it. So, why does the state legislature not pass a bill that would really affect drunken driving, a bill that would limit all alcohol sales to before 12? Because, bar & club owners have the power to fight it and us students will just sit and take it with a smile....or maybe not. —Matt Lambert UCO student

Excellence in Teaching Award winners esteemed by students By Lisa Tatum stallwriter
S
tudent respect and admiration can be a reward in itself for many teachers, but four UCO faculty members got an additional reward of cash for their efforts in the classroom last year, President Roger Webb formally announced the winners of the 1997 Excellence in Teaching Awards Feb. 16. The following winners—one from each of the undergraduate colleges—each received. $1,000:

Nominations for the award, sponsored by President's Partners, were accepted from students last spring and reviewed by a committee of students and faculty who chose the recipients based on criteria such as sponsorship of student activities, student recommendations and evaluations. "Being nominated by students means more than anything," said Whittemore. "They're who we are here for." While this is the third year President's Partners has allocated funds for the award, there may be changes in future awards. Susan Savage, administrative assistant to the president, said the next awards will be known as the Stanton Young Awards, named after the individual who has designated funds for it. It may also be awarded every two to three years rather than annually, said Savage.

UCO business class tastes real world success By Bill Whisman
StaffWriter
U
CO's business research methods class, taught by Dr. Robert Epstein, associate professor of business, is helping businesses throughout the Oklahoma City area. Epstein's class has helped more than 100 businesses with meeting their clients' needs, said Epstein. "At the beginning of the semester, students go out into the community and talk to business owners about problems their business might be experiencing. Students then make a proposal to the business and share that proposal with the class.
The class then votes on six to eight of the proposals they would like to take on. Then, teams of three to four take on that business," said Epstein. Class projects help organizations with determining relocation sites, marketing products, assessing employee morale and benefits, determining individual's preferences in banking, name recognition and handling changes in the work environment. One project they took on, Pinnacle Business Systems, Inc., an Edmond-based company that builds and sells IBM computers, asked Epstein's class to conduct a random customer satisfaction survey. "Students called customers of Pinnacle that were across the
country and conducted a survey. The survey was then submitted by Pinnacle to IBM as is required by IBM," said Epstein. Pinnacle, a repeat customer of Epstein's class, donated two IBM computers and monitors to the College of Business Administration computer lab. "These fact-finding missions and their results benefit both the clients and the students," Epstein said. "It's a win -win situation for our students and the businesses." "This is a graduate level class, and these projects are arduous, but it's usually not long after graduating before students call and express their thanks for the experience." For more information contact Dr. Robert Epstein at 341-2980, Ext. 5678.

T
he deadline is approaching for two scholarships available to students who are either interested in health and environmental fields or are making a career change. Scholarships students can apply for include the Executive Women International Scholarship and the Morris K. Udall Scholarship. "People will want these scholarships because they are cash scholarships, not a tuition and fee waiver," said Stacy Meldrum, scholarship coordinator. Scholarships of $1,000 each are
available for recipients of the Oklahoma City chapter of Executive Women International. Adult students who are in a transitional situation, either changing careers due to company restructuring or a displaced homemaker who is entering the job market for the first time, as well as other situations, can apply for this scholarship. The deadline for applications is April 1. In order to qualify, students must have financial need in order to pursue their field of study. Native American and Alaska Native students interested in careers in health and tribal public policy are encouraged to
r-
,
apply for the Morris K. Udall Scholarship. The deadline for the scholarship is March 9. "In general, those majoring in environmental sciences and social sciences as well as health fields could qualify for this scholarship," said Meldrum This scholarship is available to sophomores and juniors with up to $5,000 per year for educational expenses. Current full-time sophomores and juniors who are pursuing careers in environmental public policy are also eligible for the scholarship. To be eligible, a student must be a U.S.
citizen or a resident alien of the U.S. and pursuing a bachelor's degree. The scholarship was established to honor Udall, a former Arizona congressman and his legacy of public service."The Office of Prospective Student Services is trying to attract more students to apply for scholarships," said Meldrum. "We don't have many applications for either scholarship; but if students would do a little leg work, they could find a lot of scholarships like these."For more information about these scholarships, contact Stacy Meldrum, Prospective Student Services/Scholarships, at 341-2980, Ext. 2727.

piing break trip planned to Arizona By Phil Roder RaftWa,'
E
ach spring, students from across the United States load into their cars and travel to Fort Lauderdale, Ha. to soak in the sun and participate in a week-long party on the beach. This is not the case for 26 UCO students who will pile into two vans and head off to the desert. The art department is sponsoring the low-cost trip to the Grand Canyon, from March 14 to March 20, said Dr. Bob Palmer, associate professor of art design. The group will stop overnight in Albuquerque, N.M. so they can have an opportunity to take some pictures of the petrified forest the next day. The group will then travel to the Grand Canyon. They will stay in Flagstaff, Ariz. for the remainder of the trip, said Palmer. "We have left a couple of days open, in case there is something the group decides they would like to go see," he said. The group will spend a day traveling around the Grand Canyon, a day in Sedona, Ariz. and have a couple of days of free time, Palmer said. "If no one gets hurt or killed," Palmer said he would like to make the trip a yearly event. All slots have been filled for this year's trip, and there is a waiting list in case someone decides to back out, Palmer said. -4(
Professor looks into future of campus design By Penny Hubbard StaffWW'
W
hat started out as a "fantasy design" of the UCO campus by Dr. Jim Watson, professor of visual art and design, may become reality if his idea is used. "I redesigned the UCO campus as an entry for the UCO art faculty exhibit. Those designs have ideas that would be beneficial to the campus," he said. "I wanted to explore new ideas Dr. Jim and themes that would present a more clear vision of what the campus could be," Watson said. His design, "The University of Central Oklahoma: 2020" incorporates many ideas about the architecture, landscaping and layout of the campus and how it benefits a university. His plan for the university states the design of a campus provides intangible benefits to a university, such as: • Pride in the visual environment • An affirmation of one's
decision to attend or visit the university • A sense of identity unique to the campus • Comfortable and pleasurable feelings of design aesthetics and beauty The potential was there five years ago when construction began, but the university didn't take advantage of it, he said. "We needed more input from the campus." Watson said he never set out for his design to become a serious proposal. It was a way for him to Watson address his frustrations with the current design of the campus. "Nobody will come or stay because of Greek columns," said Watson. "It is an embarrassment." Watson said that some of the things Nigh accomplished were good—like more classroom space, but there was a lot of waste. "There is no doubt it was a good thing; but the potential was there to be better, and we didn't take full advantage of it," said Watson. As part of his idea, Watson
said the design of a campus should meet certain objectives: • To convey a professional environment • To provide visual consistency to create a unique campus identity • To encourage greater diversity of campus life and activity Watson said he showed his project to President Webb and his reaction was very positive. "We spent about an The education building is one of hour walking around several buildings on campus campus and discussing the decorated with the controversial ideas," he said. "He is columns.

Help! President's Leadership Council organizes student aid center By Jolina Long Staff
program has been established on campus to help UCO students when times are tough. The President's Leadership Council (PLC) organized UCO's Help Center to distribute food and clothing to students who are in need. Patterned after Edmond's Hope Center, UCO's Help Center has food and clothing stored to give when necessary. PLC members decided to bring an item of clothing or a non-perishable food item to each of the monthly meetings.
DAViD
"We saw that problems arise from time to time and it would be best to be prepared," said Natalie Herbic, PLC secretary. "Other organizations are welcome to donate. PLC wanted to get something started in case of future emergencies," said Holly Aston, PLC treasurer. The center is available to use this semester. Students interested should complete a form located in the student activities office, Room 424 of the University Center. For more information call Lynn Means at 341-2980, Ext. 2363.

Ohio State students imitate young Bill Clinton By Steven E. Wedel .4.,
A
bout 30 years ago, America was embroiled in an undeclared war in Vietnam. Though American troops continuously won the battles, our government administrators would not let the soldiers put an end to the conflict. At home, young college students like Bill Clinton protested against the government, against its officials and against military involvement on foreign soil. Today, America is on the brink of renewing military action against another enemy our government did not allow our troops to eliminate. Today, Bill Clinton is the top government official, and he's trying to find civilian support to back up his resolve to fight Iraq. Last Wednesday, Bill Clinton sent three of his top cabinet advisors, accompanied by live media coverage, to a college campus to show the world that

attacking Iraq if Kenneth Starr were to drop his investigation. As for those students at Ohio State University, I thought their behavior was disgraceful. One of our most valuable possessions as Americans is free speech. One of our biggest faults is a lack of manners. I'm not saying those students shouldn't have questioned Secretary of State Albright or the other officials, or that they should have asked Barbara Walters-style soft questions, but they could have spoken to those officials in a civilized manner and been much more effective. I'm sure Saddam Hussein enjoyed watching the rebellious antics of America's youth as they defied their government in support of his own. But who can blame them? They learned their behavior from people just like our president. I wonder what President Bill Clinton thought as he watched those Ohio State students. Did he wonder why he didn't have the sense to poll the student body to get an idea of their feelings
before sending his people in there? Did he long for the good old days when he lived in a world of idealism rather than realism? Did he see a shadow of himself in that balcony, shaking his fist and shouting at people who wanted him to fight to keep Communism out of Vietnam? Or was he busy with a new intern?

hristy Heavin is a pretty girl. At the age of 21, she's tall, slender, and has a voice that makes her listeners lean close to hear what she has to say. She's modest, kind and gentle. Until she gets a basketball in her hands. "She can be pretty ferocious," said Darrell Sawyer, who coached Heavin at Verden High School. Sawyer remembers Heavin as a mildmannered girl and a player with a competitive spirit and a strong work Christy Heavin ethic. "You didn't have to push her," Sawyer said. "She drove herself. She'd spend so many hours in the gym, then go home and practice some more. I'd like to have a whole team of girls like her." The hard work paid off for Heavin in 1994 when she graduated from high school and received a scholarship to play basketball for UCO. She picked up where she left off in Verden, soon becoming one of the star players

for the Bronchos. "I've been very blessed," Heavin said. "God blessed me very well." It would seem UCO was the recipient of some blessings, too. In her four years as a starter, Heavin set new records in scoring, rebounding, blocked shots, field goals made and field goals attempted. "It's just been fantastic the last four years," said John Keely, coach of UCO's women's basketball team. "Christy's been a major contributor—not only in scoring, but with her leadership. Everyone likes being around her." During her rookie season, Heavin led the UCO team in scoring, averaging 12.3 points per game, and was also the rebound leader, averaging 5.9 per game. She was named Co-Freshman of the Year in the league and received an honorable mention for the AllLone Star Conference (LSC) after scoring double figures in 19 games. In her second year, Heavin again lead the team in rebounds, with 7.7 per game. She once again received an honorable mention from the A11-LSC pick while leading UCO's team in shots from the line at 79.5 percent. In a game against Texas A&M-Commerce, Heavin tied a single-game free throw percentage record, making 10 of 10 shots. Last year Heavin won All-LSC honors and averaged 11.6 points and 7.4 rebounds per game. She

MOVIE REVIEWS
By Gene Siskel (RATINGS: The movies listed below are rated according to the following key: 4 stars — excellent; 3 stars — good; 2 stars — fair; 1 star — poor.)
OUR FLICK OF THE WEEK is Palmetto, a stylish, but too convoluted by a half-bit of trickery involving what is in danger of becoming a hackneyed plot device — the inside-job kidnapping with one family member extorting another. Fargo and Excess Baggage are recent examples. In Palmetto, Woody Harrelson plays a man just released from prison who is immediately hit on by a wily sexpot (Elisabeth Shue from Leaving Las Vegas) who wants him to help extort her wealthy husband by serving as bagman for a kidnapping gambit involving her stepdaughter. When Harrelson meets the leggy daughter, the plot becomes more hot and bothersome. My basic problem with his story is that the double-crosses dominated the character development, so that I cared very little about how it all ended because I wasn't able to invest much interest in any one person. Harrelson and Shue are strong actors, but I would rather have seen them simply extemporize a series of encounters than serve this overwritten script. R. 2-1/2 stars.
HURRICANE STREETS. frustration than delight, the spacecraft contains a large, bronze sphere that reflects more than light. As the team of investigators, under the direction of Peter Coyote, quarrel and probe, they are suddenly shocked by communication they receive on their computer. Could it be that an alien is online? My biggest problem with the story is that to see the likes of this cast cower and scream and be dazzled with special PALMETTO. This week's effects just makes me sigh. FLICK OF THE WEEK. See Director Barry Levinson obviously wanted to make a above. R. 2-1/2 stars. smart, futuristic monster movie SENSELESS. Marlon but he can't get completely away Wayans, yet another member of from loud noises, the threat of a the talented comedic family, giant squid, and other staples of plays a goofy college student the genre. PG-13. 2-1/2 stars. who is desperate for success, THE WEDDING SINGER. trying any gambit to qualify for a Adam Sandler is appealing as a Wall Street job. To earn money, he volunteers to be a guinea pig nice guy who works as a singer for a chemical designed to at weddings and is engaged to be increase one's senses married himself, but still seems dramatically. Sex and toilet far away from going to the altar. humor abound. I smiled only a Naturally, he does meet a more attractive candidate for marriage couple of times. R. 2-1/2 stars. (Drew Barrymore) but she's SPHERE. Yet another about to marry a lout. And isn't that a novel idea for science-fiction, alien-monsteron-the-loose picture, this time a romance? Sandler's sweet with a very good cast: Dustin qualities are more appealing than Hoffman, Samuel L. Jackson and the hackneyed story. The result Sharon Stone are part of a team is a better character study than a of American scientists sent to movie. PG-13. 2-1/2 stars. deal with the discovery of an alien spacecraft found in the © 1998 TRIBUNE MEDIA Pacific Ocean. In a story that offers more SERVICES, INC.
Morgan J. Freeman (not the actor) directs a story of a troubled teen (Brendan Sexton III) who dreams of leaving the mean streets of petty crime with his friends in New York and joining his uncle in New Mexico. Unfortunately, the New York scenes — every single one — are utterly routine in their portrait of disaffected youth. R. 1-1/2 stars.
Woody Harrelson stars as Harry Barber, a good guy newly released from prison who tries to go bad but can't, in Palmetto a new thriller from director Volker Schlondorff, for Castle Rock Entertainment. Palmetto is a Columbia Pictures release. (Photo by Sidney Baldwin)
APOSTLE. Robert Duvall plays a revival preacher who tries to solve his own set of personal problems while bringing the power of faith to others. One can expect Duvall to deliver his sermons with relish. But what is unexpected, and turns out to be the enduring pleasure of this film, is the way the script complicates Duvallis character by making him a flawed soul. R. 3 stars.
THE EDUCATION OF LITTLE TREE. A superb family film, set in beautiful rural Tennessee in 1935, about the training of an 8-year-old boy by Robert Duvall plays a flawed his grandparents, one who is revival preacher in The white (James Cromwell from Apostle. (Photo provided) Babe) and one who is Cherokee
(Tantoo Cardinal). The education scenes are more exciting than prosaic in a film that celebrates learning and tolerance and the joy of nature. PG. 3-1/2 stars.
THE GINGERBREAD MAN. Robert Altman, like Francis Coppola before him, shows that a truly gifted director can transform a John Grisham story into more than just an exercise in lawyer jokes and partial law. Kenneth Branagh does an excellent job inhabiting the role of a Southern lawyer who falls for a pretty waitress and winds up way over his head in a tricky Marlon Wayans earns extra money in hopes of getting a job plot. A couple of hours with on Wall Street in Penelope Spheeris' Senseless. (Photo by good characters. R. 3 stars. Dimension Films/Nicola Goode)
