Best Friends.... Freckle-faced children were painted with innocent smiles March 10 at the Delta Zeta philanthropy party for children from the hearing impaired preschool on campus. The sorority hosted a wide-variety of events for the children that included a petting zoo and kite flying. The children also planted spring flower seeds. Lance, one of the 15 children who attended, became fast friends with a baby lrabbit.
his fall, UCO students will have to reach deeper into their pockets to pay the new $25 Wellness Center fee being added to enrollment costs. UCO got the green light from the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges to implement the new student fee increase. The added fee will be used to raise the $7.8 million needed for the new Wellness Center. The $25 fee increase may seem like a lot to some students. According to Keith Weber, research assistant for the presidents office, a $25 dollar per-student increase per semester will take more than 20 years to accumulate $7.8 million. "We will sell bonds on the financial market to underwrite the project," Weber said. "The university students will pay the debt service on those bonds back by the collection of these new student fees." The Wellness Center will have a swimming pool, weight room, basketball courts and other accommodations. The actual cost for the facility, however, will be $7 million. He said the remaining estimated $800,000 will go toward other services. "When you include cost of issuance, bond insurance money, commission for the people who underwrite the bonds you are actually spending $7.8 million," Weber said. "We also need the extra money for equipment. You are talking weight machines, life vests for the swimming pool, basketballs, nets, volleyballs
and standard equipment for the Wellness Center," Weber said. He said none of those costs are figured into construction; so anything collected above the debt will go to furnishing the facility. Weber said a good way for students to look at the $25 fee increase is to understand they can use the facilities for free. In other words, he said students will not be charged for a membership, but staff and faculty will. "Staff and faculty will pay a nominal fee, very nominal fee. It will be extremely dirt cheap," Weber said. Joel Buffington, advertising management sophomore, said he thought the Wellness Center should be built with student fees. "I don't mind it. I think we need one anyway," Buffington said. "We don't have anywhere to work out. I have to go to a gym and pay for membership, which is $30 anyway; so I would rather have a fitness center on campus and pay the fees that go to a gym."

Journalist Helen Thomas has a ringside seat to history. Today, a familiar presence on the front row of the White House press conferences, the United Press International Bureau Chief has covered every president since John F. Kennedy There is no place else Thomas would prefer to be. Thomas plans to leave her "hotbed" perch in the nation's capital to visit Edmond where she will speak at 7 p.m. March 25 in UCO's Constitution Hall. The event is free and open to the public. Her request is truth. Her questions of public officials, presidents included, seek straight answers for the public. At UCO she will talk about Washington, covering the news and journalism today. She loves the Washington beat because "it all comes here." It might be a bad weather scene in Oklahoma or war and peace," Thomas said. "Any way you look at it, it all comes here." Thomas has no troubles getting the president's attention during White House briefings. As senior correspondent, she is traditionally called upon first and ends each briefing with "Thank you, Mr.
President," a custom she began with Kennedy. She acquired the title— "lady in red" — during the Reagan years, when reporters wore red apparel to press briefings after word got around that Ronald and Nancy Reagan liked red. The title stuck, although Thomas claims a preference for black. She describes the investigation and impeachment of President Clinton during 1998 as a "year long siege." "Everyone is flying blind," Thomas said. "This president has never known a clay when he has not been under investigation." But, Thomas said she believes Clinton has been a "fairly good president." "He has done a lot for the economy and education," she said. "But he's made terrible mistakes that have brought the roof down." Her interest in journalism surfaced in high school when she first saw her byline in the school newspaper. "My ego swelled," Thomas said. "I fell in love with the collegiality and being allowed to be so nosy." One of nine children, Thomas grew up in a Detroit family of
Lebanese heritage that frequently discussed history and politics, a tradition that influenced her leanings toward Washington. Just out of college, she served as a copy girl on the old, now defunct Washington Daily News. In 1943, she joined UPI and the Washington Press Corps where she wrote radio news and eventually covered federal government, including Justice, the FBI, Health, Education and Welfare, and Capitol Most recently she is completing a work on a second memoir detailing coverage of the presidents and history as witnessed from her front row seat. Front Row at the White House is designated for release in May. by Susan Reger Information Specialist to the President's office

New nurse practioner, health educator arrive at Student Health Center By Ann Jayne
staff/fifer
I
s there a doctor in the house, or Student Health Center? Yes; but now there is also a new nurse practitioner and health educator. There are actually two doctors at the Student Health Center, medical director Dr. John Hackney, and Dr. Ronal Legako. They work from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. ("sick call") on Monday and Wednesday. This semester, Pati Torbati began her career as UCO's nurse practitioner. She earned her nursing degree at UCO, then got a Master's of Arts degree at the University of Oklahoma. Torbati works four hours each day at the Student Health Center. She works under a licensed physician. But, unlike a registered nurse, Torbati can prescribe certain medications, such as antibiotics. Since it may be difficult for students to see the doctors during sick call or they might not be able to spend as much time as they would like, Torbati will be able to help them. She is able to spend more time
with patients, usually 15-30 minutes. Torbati can treat general infections, like sore throats. For more serious illnesses, students are referred to physicians. Misha Mowdy, the new Health Educator, said Torbati's hours are more flexible for students. And the Student Health Center is more affordable, she said. "So many students don't have insurance or $40 for a doctor's office visit. Here (Student Health Center) it's $10," Mowdy said. Mowdy, who also earned a nursing degree from UCO and a Master's of Arts degree from the Universuty of Oklahoma, is one of the three nurses at the Student Health Center. She became the health coordinator in November and is still in the process of getting everything "squared away." "Hopefully I'll be more active in the fall," Mowdy said. As a health educator, Mowdy works with groups to promote health issues. She educates students about things such as sexually-transmitted diseases, alcohol abuse and date rape. Mowdy also teaches CPR to
students majoring in nursing, speech pathology and dietetics. "Right now I'm limiting it to students who are required to have it for a class or clinical practicum," Mowdy said. In the fall, Mowdy hopes she can schedule times to teach CPR to anyone who needs it or wants to learn it. Anyone who would like Mowdy to speak to their group should contact her and tell her what the topic is and when she needs to speak to them. Then she coordinates the times with the other nurses and researches the topic. Mowdy can also be contacted if someone has questions about a particular health issue. In the Student Health Center students can read pamphlets or watch videos to find out about health issues. Mowdy refers to this as her "health library." The Student Health Center is located east of the Chambers Library between Murdaugh and West Halls. For more information on their services, contact the Student Health Center at 974-2317.

Lettermen crooners return for UCO concert
Lips wow many
Lewinsky's lipstick big hit
By Jarrod Briley
Pundits continue to ruminate over Monica Lewinsky's "20//20" interview. However many are left with just one unanswered question: "Where'd she get that great lipstick?" Yep, the most far-reaching impact of the two-hour 'fess-fest seen by 70 million viewers has been a national depletion of "Glaze" lipstick and "Bare" lipliner, both by Toronto-based Club Monaco. A clerk at the Club Monaco shop in Skokie, Ill., a Chicago suburb, said its waiting list closed at 350 names because the company wanted to make sure it could fill all orders © Knight-Ridder Newspapers, 1999

UCO wins three out of four Robinson choosen By James Gutzmer Sportstilitos
T
he UCO Broncho softball team took Panhandle for two games Monday and split a doubleheader with Northwest Missouri on Tuesday. The Bronchos won the first two games 5-1 and 7-4 on Monday. Then the Bronchos fell short 21 against NWMSU and wrapped up with a 3-2 win. In the first game the Bronchos started the game by scoring in the first inning, UCO was held off by Panhandle until the fourth inning when the Bronchos took final control of
the game, scoring two runs in two consecutive innings to put the Bronchos on top 5-1. Chasidy Horton and Staci Dickerson led the Bronchos at the plate by belting homeruns. Jami Akin picked up the win to improve to, 5-3 on the season. Akin pitched all seven innings striking out 10 Panhandle batters and allowing eight hits. In the second game UCO fell behind 3-0 early but rallied in the third and fourth. UCO added a final run in the sixth to win 7-4. Horton again took the ball for a ride over the fence to lead the Bronchos at the plate.
While Staci Dickerson added a double to aid the Bronchos. Laura Blain picked up the win to even out her season at 22. Blain pitched the entire seven innings allowing eight hits, four runs, and struck out two. Against NWMSU the Bronchos fell behind in the third but rallied to tie in the sixth. However, the Lady Bearcats scored a run in the seventh to put away the win. In the second game Akin got her fourth straight pitching win. UCO took a 3-0 lead before NWMSU came back in the fifth, but the Bronchos held on for the win.
NCAA changes football rules
C
hanges in the penalties for holding behind the neutral zone and intentional grounding were among just a handful of adjustments approved by the NCAA Football Rules Committee for the 1999 season. The committee met February 15 through 17 in San Diego, California. "This was the fewest number of rules changes approved during my seven-year tenure on the Football Rules Committee,"
Chairman Vincent Dooley said. "I believe that is a strong indication that coaches and officials are very satisfied with the rules." The changes made include, holding behind the neutral zone will be penalized 10 yards from the previous spot of the ball. The current rule, which went into effect in 1991, penalized the offending team 10 from the spot of the foul. Intentional grounding will result in a penalty of loss of
down at the spot of the foul, rather than the existing rule of loss of down and a five-yard assessment from the spot of the foul. That rule has been unchanged since 1949. Among the other changes are: 'Visible bandannas will be considered a uniform attachment, which is illegal; 'Teams may not break a huddle with 12 or more players; and â&#x20AC;˘Dead-ball fouls by both teams that are considered to be part of a continuing action or of a aliatory

But many of us returned from break with a hefty dose of senioritis. If you've also fallen victim to the motivationcrippling malady called senioritis, just hold your breath. We know it's tough to go to classes, even harder to hit the books. Yet realistically these last few weeks could go by as fast as your last relationship. They could even go by as fast as Spring Break.
