Prawdzienski said, "The attitude of the parties in charge seems to be, 'you guys hurt us in the last election, so we don't want to do this.'" Randazzo said the current goal of OBAR is to reassign the bill from Oklahoma House of Representative's Rules Committee, where he feels the bill won't receive fair consideration, and to a court where it may be debated and voted on. "Rules [Committee] can kill a bill for a variety of reasons. We don't expect them to have good reason come Feb. 22." Two months ago, Amanda Lenox, sophomore biology major

Lenox said, "Since I was a college student, I thought they would want to hear what students have to say about the political process." - She said, "I want to encourage people to get involved with politics and learn more about third-parties like the Libertarian party."

Enrollment expands in forensic science department BY LAURA BELLO
Senior Writer
rograms involving criminal investigations and crime scenes flood prime-time television. America's fascination with solving crimes may be one of the reasons UCO's forensic science masters and graduate program has flourished since it began two years ago, said Dr. Robert Bost, associate professor and director of the master of science in the forensic science program. He said the program has 70 graduate students. The response has been so overwhelming that the program has put a cap on applications, said Forensic Science professor Dr. Fred Grosz. He said they will admit 35 – 40 students per semester. Two things that surprised Gosz are that many of the applicants are from out of state and 75% are female. Most forensic science training schools are on either the east or west coast. Grosz said OSU's College of Osteopathic Medicine in Tulsa offers such programs, but most of the courses are distant learning and are more focused on

he state of Oklahoma has made it extremely difficult for third parties to get on the ballot. The Democrats and Republicans are in power and they want to stay in power even if it means doing un-American things like limiting democracy. While some states allow write-in votes, Oklahoma will throw the ballot away if you make any extra marks on it whatsoever. Most people vote with the idea that any vote that isn't for a Republican or a Democrat is a wasted vote. They choose between "the lesser of two evils" rather than vote for who they think would really
I
do the best job. If everyone stopped thinking this way at the same time and actually voted for the person they wanted, we might actually start seeing some changes made in this country. The current "Democan/Republicrat" regime is afoul with corrupt politicians who promise favors to those who donate to their campaign funds. Anyone who can't see this scam and these scum for what they are needs to open their eyes. Third parties at least offer an alternative to the same old political folly. The fact that these people would even try to run under a different party shows that
they must care deeply about something, because they have such a small chance of success from the get-go. The Green Party wouldn't want to dump a billion tons of nuclear waste in Arizona, like the Republicans are trying to do. The Libertarian party would never pass something as fascistic as the U.S.A. Patriot Act. There is nothing wrong with voting for another party. There is something wrong with blindly following the herd. At least examine the options before you vote. •

Gavin receives national award BY SARA MUNN
Staff Writer
UCO advertising student was honored this month at the 2002 American Advertising Federation Most Promising Minority Students award ceremony, held Feb. 6 through Feb. 8 in New York City. Senior advertising major and advertising manager for The Vista, Tay Gavin was one of 25 students from across the nation to receive the award, which included a threeday all-expenses-paid stay at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. According to the AAF website, the Most Promising Minority Students Program is "the premier advertising industry award program to recognize and recruit outstanding minority college graduates in advertising, marketing, media and communications." To be selected, minority students must be nominated by a faculty adviser, submit a transcript and resume, and write an essay about a minority pioneer in advertising. Gavin is the third UCO student to win the award. UCO journalism professor Robert Illidge nominated Gavin who is also president of UCO's Ad Club. Illidge accompanied Gavin on the trip to New York. "This says so much for Mr.
A
Tay Gavin Illidge's advertising program," Gavin said. "I cannot thank him enough." Gavin and the other winners spent three days attending workshops, including a luncheon where actor Christopher Reid, known as Kid of the rap duo, Kid `N Play, acted as master of ceremonies. Other luncheons allowed the minority winners to meet with representatives from major advertising agencies, including Bozell New York, who created the "Got Milk" campaign, and DDB New York, whose clients include Volkswagen and Budweiser.
ROTC to hold briefing Feb. 28
"I was really excited because I wanted to meet them," Gavin said. "I talked to Bozell New York for an hour, which was great." After talking to various agencies, Gavin said it made her think about the economy and her job opportunities after graduation. "It's kind of a scary time to graduate," Gavin explained. "I was prepared to [meet with agencies] and know if I had a job offer, but I found out it doesn't work that way." Gavin said she has learned through the AAF program that advertising has many facets. "Everybody thinks they're going to be working in the creative field and designing ads," Gavin said. "But I learned there are so many fields of advertising to get into. It took me less than 15 minutes to realize that I shouldn't pigeonhole myself." Gavin added, "If I could bring back one thing to tell [public relations], advertising and communication majors at UCO is that you need experience. Everybody has to start as an assistant. You have to make an effort to understand what's going on and what you like." Gavin gave advice to future public relations and advertising graduates: "If you are a minority, apply to AAF. These people are amazing. I was so honored to be there." •

Self-defense class slated BY LAURA BELLO
Senior Writer
ow confident are you that you could fend off an attacker? The Greek Affairs Office and Panhellenic Council Student Activities Board are bringing in a national martial arts instructor to present a free self-defense class for women at 8:30 p.m. Feb. 25 in the Nigh University Center Ballroom C. The class, Girls Fight Back!, teaches college women how to avoid making themselves targets of crime, said instructor Erin Weed. Weed began teaching the class after her sorority sister was brutally murdered while fighting off an attacker in her apartment near Eastern Illinois University campus. Weed had been trained in the martial arts and was haunted by the thought that so many young women lacked some of the basic self-defense skills that can make a difference in an attack situation; she said. Weed has training from FBI agents, the Marines, retired
H
police officers and third-degree black belts. The class .offers practical advice that women can use to their advantage. "Every woman has 'weapons' in her purse – common everyday items – that when used effectively can inflict real harm," she said. Her presentation has two parts — a one-hour lecture and interactive self-defense training. It covers the mental, emotional and physical aspect of selfdefense. "We have great instincts when it comes to danger," Weed said. "We just need to do a better job of listening to that - little voice inside each of us." Greek Life Coordinator Enrique Guzman heard Weed speak at a conference and was impressed with her. He decided to bring her to UCO to share her knowledge. "It's important for women to know how to defend themselves if they are ever in this situation," Guzman said For more information call Guzman at 974-2580. •

FORENSICS: Hands-on experience touted continued from page 1 She is pleased with the faculty at UCO. "Our professors have had hands-on experience in forensics. That is nice, because they know what it is like to work in the real world," BoyettReyes said. The use of DNA evidence in criminal prosecutions in the last • ten years has gained credibility. Forensic laboratories that perform DNA typing must have supervisory personnel with a master's degree in forensic science. Jonathan Drobac will graduate this year. He is pursuing a master's degree in criminalistics and would like to conduct DNA analysis. Drobac is from Chicago and has his bachelor's degree in molecular and cellular biology. He learned about UCO's forensic program while searching for such programs online. He was one of the first - students to go through the program. He said at first they were still working out some of the bugs of the program, but he has been impressed with his professors. "The staff is amazing — they have a lot of people in the field teaching the courses," Drobac said. He said the program prepared him for an internship he took in Chicago. "I had an internship at the Dupage County Crime Lab and they were impressed with my knowledge," he said. Some courses the students take include crime scene investigation, blood spatter analysis and examination of evidence. •

Softball takes two in Irving BY DARA LAWLESS Sports Writer
roncho women's softball struggled defensively, but managed to finish strong going 2-2 during the Lone Star Conference First Pitch Softball Tournament Feb. 15-16 in Irving, Texas. UCO rose above two losses to Texas A&M-Kingsville and Tarleton State on Friday the 15th to overcome Eastern New Mexico and Abilene Christian, each by one run the following day. "It was good to come back to get two wins [Saturday] after playing so poorly on Friday," stated Head Coach Genny Honea. "We had too many defensive lapses both days, but we were able to overcome them in the last two games with some timely hits." The Bronchos stayed locked with Texas A&M-Kingsville 1-1 forcing extra innings until the Javelinas' bats fought past Jessica Kirby's pitching scoring four runs and taking the 5-1 victory. Then Tarleton State defeated the Bronchos in the bottom of the seventh for a tight 6-5 win

Chavira's two run double in the fifth put the Bronchos in front 4-3 after previously trailing by two. Despite struggling with four errors in the game, UCO overcame Abilene Christian 4-3 in a gripping seventh inning tie breaker. Julie Cyr smashed a lead-off triple to put her in scoring position for Courtney Cole to break the 3-3 tie with her RBI double.

Return to Never Land is wholesome family movie despite trite story line
R
eturn to Never Land, the
long-awaited sequel to Disney's Peter Pan finally opened nationwide on Feb. 15 after more than a year in limbo. Set in the backdrop of World War II, we see Wendy as a grownup with two children of her own. When her husband leaves to fight in the war, her daughter Jane promises dad to take care of the family. As the war drags on, Jane takes her responsibility seriously, and no longer feels that she is a child. One night Jane tells Wendy that it's ridiculous for her to tell Peter Pan stories to her little brother,,Danny. She tells Danny that Peter Pan does not exist. She then falls asleep cryin .g after the fight with her family. Captain Hook then kidnaps
Jane thinking that she is Wendy and takes her to Never Land. Peter Pan, of course, comes to the rescue. The twist here is that Tinkerbell's light is in danger of going out because Jane doesn't believe in "fairies." On the other hand, Hook would like more than anything to use Jane to capture Peter Pan and the Lost Boys. The characters are as endearing as we remember,but the story is not very imaginative and not as
captivating as the original Peter Pan. The process in which Jane goes from someone who doesn't believe in fairy tales to become the first ever "Lost Girl" is quite trite, but I'm sure it will get a few big smiles out of the young and the young-at-heart. I do like the fact that we learn Wendy really hasn't changed that much even though she's no longer a little girl. The reunion between Peter Pan and her is easily the
sweetest moment in the entire film. I love Disney as much as the next person, and I love the first Peter Pan dearly. This sequel, however, just does not quite reach the level of accomplishment of other Disney sequels that I've seen such as The Lion King 2 or even Pocahontas 2. The animation looks a bit sloppy and the story line is more than a little silly at times. It

STRANGE STORIES
By
G
BETH HULL
Editor in Chief
ood morning, UCO! Its time once again for that complete waste of column inches, The Hull Truth and Nothing But. Aren't you glad? Sure you are. Last week the world was bombarded with one of the most sappy, useless holidays of the entire year — Valentine's Day. Unlike many women, I am not, nor have I ever been, a true fan of this mushy day. However, I am now forced to participate since I am engaged. I suppose this means I'll have to participate for the rest of my life. Hooray. When gift-giving holidays come around, I'm usually at a loss for what to buy for the men in my life. It's not that I have that many men in my life, but the ones I know make it seem like an army. Gifts for women, on the other hand, are easy to find. All we want is something that smells nice, looks pretty or cleans the house for us. Unfortunately many men interpret this to mean we want a shiny new vacuum and a can of carpet deodorizer. That's usually enough to win them a one-way ticket to the couch for a week or so. Most of the men I know say that they aren't very picky about gifts. This is obvious by the vacuum and deodorizer thing, but when it comes right down to it, it's hard to tell what they really want. Just how many beer helmets and PlayStation games can one man own? One can always pull a Martha Stewart and get creative, but I know few men whose deepest
desire is to own a beer bottle cozy made from freshly-shorn lambswool and rose petals. I agree that with gifts, it's definitely the thought that counts. However, there are a lot of people out there who say they don't want a gift, but are too polite to say otherwise. Either that, or they want something so weird you really don't want to know about it. Last Christmas, like most, I was at a loss for what to buy for my father. Each year he takes advantage of pre-Christmas sales to buy himself everything he could ever want — leaving few options for my family. He already has every designer power tool and accessory DeWALT makes. Eddie Bauer practically owns his closet.. What was a poor college student to do, short of seeking employment in the street-corner sex industry? It was time to ask mom. Instead of wise motherly insight into some unknown item my father craved, my mother told me what I didn't want or need to hear. All he wanted for Christmas was new underwear. I probably don't have to tell you how absolutely disgusting this idea was. Who on earth buys undies for their father? I had always prided myself on buying nice, enjoyable Christmas gifts for the people I love. How was I to face the rest of my family on Christmas morning? Why me? Surely my mother was joking. Distressingly, the joke was on me. Still reeling from disbelief and horror, I went to my father and asked him what he wanted for Christmas. My fears were confirmed: the gift of choice was several packages of Hanes. Since my options and cash were limited, I set my ego aside and gave in to his wish for new underpants. Needless to say, my father was happy to open his present from me on Christmas morning. I, however, had to endure a full day of teasing from the rest of my family. Next year daddy's getting a nde. •
Sex class on hold following student orgy FROM WIRE REPORTS
Associated Press BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — A male sexuality class at University of California, Berkeley has been suspended after reports of lurid extracurricular activities surfaced late last week in the student newspaper. The suspension of the class,, run by students and sponsored by the university, was announced Friday. Students who had taken part in the two-unit course told the Daily Californian that several of their classmates were involved in an orgy at a class party and that another group of students chose to go to a strip club for their final project. At the club, the students looked on as one of their student instructors had sex on stage, Jessica McMahon told the campus newspaper. At a party held to introduce the students, some took Polaroid pictures of their genitals to show that their bodies were not disgusting, UC Berkeley freshman Christy Kovacs told the Sacramento Bee. An incredulous university administration quickly pulled the plug on the "democratic education" or "de-cal" course. Such courses are sponsored but not funded by the
university. columnist Woody Paige said he was "Those sorts of activities are not just poking a little fun at Utah. part of the approved course Now he's got a lifetime supply of curriculum," UC Berkeley the state's official snack from the spokeswoman Marie Felde said. people who didn't think he was so She confirmed the male sexuality funny. class had been suspended after the A truck carrying hundreds of student instructors failed to attend boxes of lime Jell-O arrived at The a meeting with a university official.
