"There are some factors that are in favor of Gore; there are some factors that are in favor of Bush," Jones said. Perhaps the most interesting part of the speech came near the end when Jones discussed the Electoral College and explained the difference between the popular vote and the electoral vote. "Everybody knows that Bush is leading in the polls as we speak. The polls are for the national popular vote. The problem with that is we do not have a national election for President. We have 51 separate elections — 50 states plus the District of Columbia," Jones said. "As you know, the Founding Fathers — when they set this system up — didn't really trust ordinary folk back there in the 1700s to choose a person as important as the president of the United States, but yet they wanted the ordinary people to get to have some say-so in this. "And so, ordinary people get to choose electors, who will presumably be better educated, more informed, (and) better able to make a wise choice as to whom the president should be. People vote for electors; the electors vote for president," he said. Jones said that although the electoral vote usually magnifies

Dr. Siegfried Heit, director of applied liberal arts, recently received a Legion of Merit award.
his retirement from the US Army Reserves, where he served for 37 years, for achievements throughout his military career. "I was told by my general that he had recommended me for the award, but it had to be approved by a three star general," Heit said. Heit worked with the general who later approved him. Heit served on a task force while mobilized in Bosnia. "I briefed (the general) on certain issues. I told him the way we saw the issues and made recommendations," Heit said. Heit has a degree in Eastern European history, and is fluent in German, a language prominent in Bosnia. He has also served as an interpreter to a 2 star general. The award cites "extremely meritorious service from May 1999 to 2000 for increasing
responsibility as deputy commander of army civil affair brigade with 37 years of service,' according to May. Heit actively participates it national and international professional conferences. He was a Fulbright scholarship recipient once in Germany and Turkey. Since 1969, Heit has taught German, history and humanities at several universities. He is also the Fulbright advisor at UCO, director of international studies and department chair. He joined UCO staff in 1990. Heit's family and friends were there to support him and participate in the event. "My family was happy and proud. My grandchildren were there giggling and waving at me. I didn't wave back, but I winked at them," Heit said. •

he government is making fake ID's harder to get in an attempt to keep alcohol out of the hands of adults between the age of 18 and 21. These adults try to exercise their 21st amendment right to drink, but the federal government has successfully blackmailed the individual states into passing prohibition to their 21st year (bet you didn't know that the U.S. drinking age was still 18, did you?). Years ago, the Feds told the states that highway funds would be withheld until the states passed 21 year prohibition, because these laws could not be passed on the federal level due to that pesky U.S. Constitution (which was written, in part on a table in an ale house). Some states, like Louisiana, tried to defend the freedom of their residents and defy the federal mandate, but eventually the

deterioration of their roads made them buckle under. At age 18, the government can force you from your home, shave your head, stick a rifle in your arms and banish you to a foreign war-torn land against your will. The Feds can even confiscate large chunks of your income to pay for it. But they do not want you to drink because it may be dangerous. So it is natural that Americans will try to create fake ID's to get around this set of regulations and blackmail. It is our choice under the U.S. Constitution and the of American freedom to make up our own minds about alcohol. The fake ID's we use to grab a beer after school are not a wrong in and of themselves, they are the symptom of a far greater problem: the steady erosion of our freedom. •

Voters can make certain property taxes in their school districts permanent. This will save the tremendous amount it costs to vote on the taxes each year. A percent of the state's tobacco settlement will be put into a Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust Fund. The money will be used for tobacco prevention, cancer research and other tobacco-related diseases and health care. "I think this is the most important of them all," said Matt Kerpanski, freshman english major. "It's reinvesting. We could spend it all on the already sick but thankfully we'll use much of it to prevent our sisters and our sons from starting the awful habit," he said. In other voting, Oklahomans voted to keep all 10 judges on the judicial retention judges. "This was a wild election. How often do you have to wait that long to find the winner of something, anything? The state issues were all pretty predictable and boring, but the presidential campaign will be talked about in history classes forever," Swist said. •

undergraduates to study abroad during the Summer of 2001 through the Spring 2002. More than 1,240 students have been selected for NSEP scholarships for study in more than 65 countries that are important to U.S. national security. Countries include China, Russia, Japan, Brazil, South Africa, and Egypt.
"It is a great idea to study abroad because you get to know different people, cultures and businesses that you normally would not be used to seeing," said Marija Mitic, a freshman undecided major from Yugoslavia. Students who are studying in fields such as engineering and applied sciences, business and
economics, international affairs, politics, policy and social sciences, health and law are being encouraged by the NSEP to apply for the scholarship. The scholarship can give up to $8,000 per semester. For more information, contact 1-800-618-NSEP. •

N
o. 4-ranked Central Oklahoma opened the 2000-01 wrestling season in dominating fashion at the Central Missouri State Open here Sunday, crowning four individual champions and finishing with 12 placers. Matt Dodgen, Nathan Gomez, Shawn Silvis and Muhammed Lawal all won individual titles for the Bronchos in the one-day tournament in which no team scoring was kept. UCO also had three runners-up, two fourths, two fifths and one sixth and had at least one placer in every weight but one. "It was a good day for us," UCO coach David James said. "The guys got a lot of mat time that we needed and we wrestled hard. We looked pretty good, probably better than we have at this tournament in the past few years. "This was a good starting point for us and gives us something to work on this week to get ready for our next tournament, because it (NebraskaOmaha Open on Saturday) will be quite a bit tougher." Dodgen won his title over teammate Cole Province, earning a 1-
1 overtime victory when he controlled Province in the 30-second tiebreaker. Province had beaten Dodgen 1-0 in a tiebreaker last week in UCO's Bronze-Blue intrasquad match. Gomez earned his gold medal with a 3-2 finals victory over Missouri's David Ness at 157 pounds, while Silvis downed Missouri's Keith Clausen 9-3 in the 165-pound finals. Lawal gave UCO its third finals victory over a Missouri wrestler with a 5-2 triumph over Ryan Stone at 184 pounds. The Bronchos also got runner-up finishes from 141 Joe Schneider and 149 Gable Sullivan, while 157 H.M. Chapman and heavyweight Jeremy McCoy were fourth, 174 Dennis Parker and 197 Aaron Lane fifth and 157 Luke Davis sixth. The only weight UCO didn't place at was 125, where defending national champion Mark Dodgen dropped a close decision in the quarterfinals, came back with one consolation win and then withdrew because of illness. • PHOTO SERVICES

Geer, an English education major. Many of the supporters of the electoral vote, however, said they believe the Electoral College helps create more of a balance of power. "I do not believe in the tyranny of the majority," said graduate student Tony Telemeco. "I think if anything, this election underscores the fact that we really have no one to chose from. There's really no difference [between the two candidates]. We really need a broader breadth of candidates and political parties. This would give people a reason to turn out [to vote]. Today they [voters] don't perceive much of a difference." The survey also asked students if they would support the idea of a run-off election in future elections with
similar circumstances in order to redistribute votes cast for the candidates who do not finish in the top two. UCO students did not support a run-off by a 3:1 margin, citing the cost of elections as their reason, but others, such as Spanish Education major Jesse Garcia, felt the choice had been made in the original eletion. Two out of three UCO students also said that they believe that early election returns and media predictions do play a significant role in voter turnout. "I absolutely think the media plays a role in voter turn out," said psychology major Johnathan Prince. "I think it has discouraged people, especially in Oklahoma. People don't think their vote will make a difference either way." •

No more flipping burgers: Students cash in on Internet porn BY WILLIAM LEE
College Press Reporter wenty-year-old Mike Alexander leads a pretty full life. He's a full-time college student at Golden West College in Huntington Beach, Calif. He works with his dad at a warehouse, which he owns. But that's just his day job. Mike owns and operates several Web sites — sex Web sites. He serves as a webmaster for www.surfboys.com , gaypiczone.com and girlypictures.com. Mike is just one of the many college students who have taken to the World Wide Web not just to make money in the sex field, but also for self expression, which is the case with "Abby." She's the subject of AbbyTV.com , a site devised with the purpose of showing real-life via a Web cam. College Web cams — that is, Web cams featuring the home lives of real college students — are becoming increasingly popular and are bringing Internet voyeurism to the mainstream. So what would webheads see as a part of Abby's real life? "Probably at least half [of AbbyTV

She adds that she's average college student may hold down.
"Waitressing just doesn't pay very well, and I am making fairly good money from the Web site," Abby said. "I'm not getting rich or anything, but I'm living a lot more comfortably now than I was before." What works for Abby, doesn't for other college students. Many don't have the courage be seen in compromising positions on the Internet. Ironically, both Abby and Debbie plan on careers in the childcare field -- Abby a social worker and Debbie an elementary school teacher, but neither one see their sexy jobs as affecting their plans. Mike, who's been the object of stalkers, knows that being on the Internet has its risks. "I've had people email me back and describe my car, describe my home, where I live with my parents — the whole nine yards. Obviously they had been following me," Mike said. "One guy from Chicago followed me all the way to Los Angeles, where I live. He started renting hotel rooms, which were very close to my home, and he started writing emails from his laptop. Everyday, he would describe something different about what I was doing." Still wanna be a Web/porn star? Despite this scary episode and others like it, Mike said that he would keep doing the site. •

Ex-tennis coach honored BY SARAH DAVIS

ommittment, spirit and loyalty to UCO are all attributes for which alumni are praised. Just ask Francts Baxter, assistant professor of kinesiology and health studies. Baxter was honored with the 2000 John Kessler Award during UCO's annual Alumni Awards Banquet on Nov. 3. He was recognized for the "spirit of commitment, loyalty and selflessness" he has shown UCO. Baxter began his 30year stay at UCO as the Francis varsity men's tennis coach and physical education instructor. In 1979, he was named varsity tennis coach of the women's team, making him the first male to coach a women's varsity sport at UCO. "As a faculty member, Francis can

always be counted upon to bring forth bridge-building recommendations and to serve when called upon to do so," said one of Baxter's colleagues. Those who nominated Baxter for the award said that he is recognized throughout UCO for his positive and sharing attitude and has influenced the lives of numerous alumni. Along with Baxter, five former UCO graduates were named as Distinguished Former Students. Thomas G. Emerick, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.; Jim Epperson, president_of Southwestern Bell Baxter Telephone-Oklahoma; Joseph Hight, managing editor, The Daily Oklahoman; Dr. Patricia Howard-Peebles, a Virginia cytogenic consultant and Dr. Mark W.

the popular vote, there have been three times in history when a president has been elected who did not receive the most popular votes. He said this situation could very well occur in this election. Jones suggested that it would be Bush who would win the popular vote and Gore who would win the electoral vote Jones went on to suggest that if this scenario should happen in this election, it "could cause a real legitimacy problem" for whomever is elected President. "My guess is it would likely precipitate a change in the Electoral College," Jones said. "I don't think that in this day and time that the people would stand for _that result happening more than once. It would obviously take an amendment to the Constitution to get it changed." One man in the crowd seemed very unhappy with Jones' suggestion and said no matter what the popular vote result is, the American people should support whoever is elected because we have a system in place that should be honored.
With the current uncertainty of the election results and the recount that is going on, we are now in the situatuion that Jones predicted. When asked what he thinks of the current situation, Jones said, "there is not much more to say until something is definitive." "Looking at the situation in

Guilty as charged!
I
t's been coming for a while... no use in putting it off any more. Ladies and gents, I am a confessed music snob. I didn't think I would ever pin that tag on myselfI've never thought of myself as a snob of any kind- but after reading a gag column in a magazine defining things snobs talk about (Big Star? Hey, I listen to them! Replacements? Geez, I named my column after one of their albums, for cryin' out loud!), I've come to the realization that it's one of the few labels that really sticks with me. So here I am: Michael Ross, Music Snob in the First Degree. Don't believe me? You will... read on... I don't know what it was, but I never really took to the bands that were "popular," per se. As a ninth grader, I chose to track down altcountry acts like Son Volt and Wilco. Once in high school, the aversion to "radio bands" became more pronounced as I began picking up on jazz, "power pop" bands like the late, lamented Ben Folds Five, and bands who'd seen their heyday come and go and were now far out of fashion with my age bracket. I recently found myself thumbing through said magazine article (which also includerheadings for Brian Wilson and Lee Hazelwood) at the dinner table recently, when the awful truth hit me. "Hey, Ross, this is you dead on," a friend said as he read the intro, which touted the content as being a "key to deciphering the language with which a music snob speaks." "Dude, you do like to drop names that nobody's heard of, and it ticks me off sometimes." I told him to shut up, and
went back to my room to spin "In the Street." As I write this, the trusty CD-ROM drive is spewing forth Aguilera en espanol, courtesy of my editor-in-chief. This stuff is cracking me upRCA Records is obviously trading on this girl's heritage, attempting to merge the fading teen-princess trend with the equally fading Latin pop trend. It's a good idea, I suppose. It's one more label for record stores to stick on their bins. My snobbishness extends to the radio quite frequently. To me, it seems like just about all we have to choose from on the radio and in most record stores is the kiddie mix KJYO sonically vomits, sludge rock that wishes 1992 had never ended, and so-called "urban grooves" that recycle the same keyboard loops over and over again. It's kind of sad, really. How can you tell if your friend or loved one is a record snob? Here's some tips from the source: 1. They know what you're talking about when you bring up the Beach Boys' "Smile" album. 2. They get a glazed-over look in their eyes when you walk into the CD section of Barnes and Noble. This look doesn't pass until they leave, with something either remastered or unrecognizable. 3. He prefers Paul's Boutique over Licensed to Ill. 4. He buys glasses like Elvis Costello's, and for that purpose alone. PLEASED TO MAIL ME! I received my first piece of semi-fan mail (other than my friend Waldo's earnest e-mail repeating "Ross is Boss" a dozen times) this past week. My new friend B.J. WEXLER wrote in response to my column about our chance encounter and was quite flattered. See how great columns are? I swear, mail of any kind is like a little slice of Christmas in ... err... November. â&#x20AC;˘
Michael Ross's column appears every Thursday in The Vista.
