Time to synchronize the clocks, UCOSA resolution says By Trent Dugas
StattWriter
tudents late to class and professors past. The University of Central Oklahoma holding class beyond the Student Association (UCOSA) is scheduled time because of broken clocks may become a problem of the working on a resolution that will ask the university to better maintain its hallways and classroom clocks. The main goal of the resolution is to clear the ambiguity that revolves around the start and end times of classes. The resolution also points out that clocks on campus are not in synchronization with each other. This creates inconsistency in actual hours of operation for all facilities. With the resolution, UCOSA hopes the university will install clocks where there currently are not any. UCOSA want clocks in every classroom on campus and in hallways longer than 50 feet. Chris Cook, house speaker, said if the clocks were organized and revealed the correct time, student life would improve. He said time is a standard unit of measurement that people use to construct their schedule. Everyone that attends a specific class should be.able to agree on the time, when class starts and ends, according to the clock in the room, Cook said. "Time is important, it's your —Photos and design by Landon Salyer structure," he said.
A possible solution described in the resolution is for UCO to solicit corporate advertising displayed. The advertising would go around the face of the clock to offset the cost of buying new clocks. "I don't care who advertises, just give me the correct time," Cook said. "We want to know as we walk in the building, what time the professors are going by or as we are sitting there and we have gone 15 minutes over or the professor thinks he is done with the class and we have 15 minutes left." Cook said the clocks on campus have had problems for a while and his decision to pursue the issue is based on complaints from students and members of UCOSA. Cook says he may have "jumped the gun" with this resolution and said he should have researched a little more and talked with Lennis Pederson, director of facilities management. "He may pick up this resolution and just laugh at it and say 'if someone would have just told me I would have got it fixed,"' Cook said. He said he did not go that route because he assumed since so many V See

UCO teachers leave because of low pay, professors' report says By Ercilia Zolkeiwizc
StaWAfriter
44 A
Preliminary Report on Faculty Compensation Issues" disclosed that there is a feeling among the faculty of the College of Business Administration that they are undercompensated for their services. Three business professors recently submitted the report to Dr. David Harris, dean of the College of Business. According to the report, the basis of the study is to determine if the feelings of undercompensation are justified. The report also addresses concerns of
understaffing Because of the low pay, the College of Business has had difficulty in recruiting and retaining qualified full-time faculty. Five or six junior faculty members left the College of Business over the summer, said Dr. Russell Jones, assistant dean of the College of Business. "It's the junior faculty who are leaving and those are the ones we ought to keep." "We have some outstanding College of Business faculty and they are damn good at what they do. But if we had the opportunity

clocks have been incorrect for so long, somebody would have already reported it. UCO has a service contract with Simplex Time Recorder Company in Oklahoma City, to maintain and fix the clocks. Pederson said there are two problems with the clocks on campus. "The contract per say is working fine but they have been inordinately busy and some of the clocks have gone a little long on repair," Pederson said. "I think the other issue that we are facing is that we are not identifying these broken clocks quickly enough and they seem to go without repair in a timely manner." Pederson said his department has a system that works effectively on UCO's part. He
said when someone calls with a clock complaint, someone in Facilities Management faxes a form to Simplex describing the broken clock. At that point, the problem is in the hands of Simplex. Pederson said his employees check the work and get in touch with Simplex to make sure the work was done correctly. The contract with Simplex does not cover all the clocks on campus. Pederson said Simplex is contracted to fix only the clocks the university purchases which is roughly 25 percent of all clocks. The contract costs UCO around $3,500 a year, he said. Pederson said he could not comment on university purchases made before he was an employee. -4

Archives move from old to new By Trent Dugas

,he UCO Archives is , writing a new chapter in its UCO history book: it is writing its own name. The archives is moving out of Evans Hall and into the third floor of the Max Chambers Library. The move will give the archives more room but the main purpose is so Evans Hall can become the new Alumni Reunion Center. Ten years ago, UCO spent over $900,000 to renovate Evans Hall, to specifically accommodate the UCO Archives. The actual move will cost UCO around $11,000. UCO has spent around $35,000 to make the third floor of the library livable. The money
will come from Alumni donations The three story, 21,000square-foot Evans Hall will still house the UCO Museum of History on the third floor. The building was originally Central State's library. Today, it preserves the history of the University of Central Oklahoma and the State of Oklahoma. According to archive promotional literature, the building houses "manuscripts, rare books, and special memorial collections." Evans Hall was restored to preserve the building's integrity. In the future, archive visitors must travel to the 1990's, modern day environment of the Max Chambers Library so they can witness the progress of history.

"People just think that we are lazy and don't want to pack up and go," Schroeder said. "Its because of the connection between us and the museum. The history department is just as upset as we are." Schroeder said the problem with moving is exposing the collection to alternative temperatures and possible rain or snow. "Historical societies tend to be in old cricky buildings," she said.

University food drive brings hope to needy By Robyn Lydick
Stalliffriter evin Allan wants to have so many groceries that he cannot move them easily. The UCO career counselor says he needs the help of the faculty, staff and students to make a difference in Edmond. Allan is organizing a food drive with Lynn Means of Student Activities for Make a Difference Day. "I was looking through the calendar on my desk, and this date was written in," said Allan, who says he is new to the position. Collection boxes will be out from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Oct. 22 at the University Center front desk. At the end of the day, all items collected will be taken to the

The HOPE Center helps feed between 400 to 600 families each month, Wilson said. T h e Intrafraternity Council, an organization of all the fraternities and sororities on campus, arranged to take the donations to HOPE Center. "They're using their own

Continued from page 3 problem they might encounter with moving to the library is the mix-up between library books and the archive's collection. Most students are misinformed that books in the archives are allowed for checkout, she said. Books in the archives cannot be checked-out and are nonreplaceable because of the historical value. She said most of
the books are out of print. The archives will gain more space in the library and since more students go into the library, more students might roam through the archives, Schroeder said. Nicole Willard, archivist, said pros and cons circle the third floor in the library. One aspect of Evans Hall she will miss is the beauty of the
building. Willard said the plan of moving the archives has formed over the past two years. "It's a political thing that happens when you have a change in the administration," Willard said. Evans Hall will now become a reception center for Alumni and other guests.

UCO senior sets example for children By Fachaitte Kinslow
StaifWriter think kids should focus more on someone that is right there and not so much as a popular person for a role model." As a senior at UCO, Barry Antwine focuses his attention on his academia, football season, friends and family, and most of all-God. Antwine, majoring in criminal justice with a minor in sociology, would like to start a career as a US Marshall. "I would like to go to Texas preferably, but anywhere would be fine," Antwine said. Antwine credits his uncle for inspiring him to go into criminal justice. "My uncle was a sheriff in Waggoner, and I saw how he worked in the community and got the bad guys off the street," Antwine said. Antwine graduated from Waggoner High School in 1996. In high school, he was involved in football, track, baseball, basketball, and boxing. Antwine also was involved in Fellow
(i‘
Christian Athletes (FCA), Teens for Christ, Student Council, and was senior class president. When the time came to choose a college, Antwine had a little help. "The majority of my family lives here (Oklahoma City) and some of my relatives went to school here (UCO)," Antwine said. "And I got on my hands and knees and prayed about it." On campus, Antwine is not only a member of the Bronchos undefeated football team, but he is also involved in FCA. "When I first got here, there weren't a lot of people involved," Antwine said. Antwine said that he and others try to get students involved in FCA who weren't exactly athletes. "Now it's (FCA) huge." Outside of his career in the future, Antwine would like to work with children, primarily delinquents. "I love kids," Antwine said. Antwine said that he would teach the children to have faith in themselves and in Christ, and instruct them to set goals to
be accomplished. He would also like to warn children about violence. "You can't keep them (children) from violence," Antwine said. "You just have to talk with the child and teach them right from wrong and pray they make the right decision." In his spare time, Antwine likes to hang out with his friends and his girlfriend. "We've been dating for two years and things couldn't be better," Antwine said. Although the senior keeps himself busy, he says that he —Photo by Tony Oltmann always makes time for his 3 year old son Barry Antwine (46) congratulates Tyler Griffin "That's my pride and joy."

Eating disorders are not just a female problem By Jessica K. Peck
CollegePress' Wier
y
our brother, your boyfriend, or perhaps even your buddy. He works out hard, eats pizza and seems to have everything under control – yet he could be one in a growing number of men suffering from eating disorders. At least one out of every 10 people with an eating disorder is a man or a boy, according to "Males and Eating Disorders," a Web site dedicated to the issue, yet most people still think of eating disorders as a problem that plagues only women. Just like many of their female counterparts, many men with eating disorders choose to hide their problem. Often, the disorders are manifested through excessive exercise -- a behavior that is accepted and not even questioned by most, according to eating disorder specialist Barton J. Blinder. The issue came to light in January 1995 when defensive lineman Dennis Brown, a member of the San Francisco 49ers, admitted to using laxatives, diuretics and induced
vomiting to control his weight. Coaches quickly tried to quiet him after he discussed the problem with members of the media at a practice at the University of Miami. "They got on me for talking about stuff like that during the Super Bowl," he said. A researcher associated with Blinder compared male marathon runners to anorexics and found many similar sociocultural and personality characteristics. In one study, she found that runners often have a bizarre preoccupation with food and their own percentage of body fat. While the characteristics of anorexia in males and females tend to be similar, including obsession, withdrawing from friends and family, and perfectionism, the outcomes are somewhat different, the study found. Males are usually overweight (123.7 percent of their ideal body weight) before developing a full anorexia nervosa disorder, and females likely to develop the disorder are most often already underweight. Because the transition is usually more drastic for men, the results can be more
serious. Similarly, approximately two-thirds of bulimic males had a history of being overweight as compared to one-third of bulimic females. While progress is being made to educate the public about male eating disorders, the focus is still largely on women. According to Katherine Hubscher and Joanne Craig, authors of an essay titled "The Forgotten Male," this is something that has gone on for centuries. "Eating disorders were first discovered in males as long ago as 1689 but were neglected primarily for two reasons: first, clinicians were generally unfamiliar with anorexia nervosa amongst males, decreasing the likelihood of correct diagnosis and second, certain diagnostic criteria actually excluded males (for example, the requirement for one of the presenting symptoms to be that menstrual periods ceased)." Because eating disorders are sometimes harder to detect in men than in women, Ray Lemberg, author of "Eating Disorders: A Reference Sourcebook," suggests specific signals to watch for when
considering if a male has an http://www.primenet.com/–dansl eating disorder. Signals os/males/home.html. indicating that help should be sought include a 15 percent weight loss or a 10 pound loss in less than a month. This accompanied by "out-of-control feelings or a sense of guilt" is usually a good indication of an 727 NW 23RD STREET eating disorder, Lemberg said.

DEBATE
Continued from page 5 few debaters, she explained. "It's strange," Tkach said, "I'm the non-traditional student— I'm 28 and I have a child— I'm the oldest member of the squad with the least experience." Tkach did not debate in high school, as many squad members did. "I'll argue with anyone for
the sake of arguing," she said. "I had a friend in a class last semester. He said he had debated in high school and that I would be great at it, so we tried it out," Tkach said. "Duke and Jan (the coaches) were great. They said 'we'll let you see what it's really like'. "My friend quit, but I'm still here."
The Missouri tournament was good for both women, Tkach said. "We did more than we thought we were capable of doing, it made us stretch." Lehman did debate at Santa Fe High School in Edmond. She debated in a different style, Lincoln Douglas (L-D) debate which is individual
debaters rather than the teams of two seen in c-x. "I wanted to debate c-x in high school, but we didn't have it until the last semester of my senior year," Lehman said. "I was doing well in L-D by then, and I did not want to change." Four UCO debate teams, made of a pair of debaters,
competed in the tournament at Southwest Missouri State. Other teams competing were: Steven Foster and Chris Valencia, Brian Johnson (with Paul Mooney), and Jamie Evans and John Potts. Forty-six teams from 14 schools were at the tournament.

Harding. Donner, an All-American last year and pre-season hopeful in 1999 for the Harlon Hill Trophy that goes to the NCAA Division II Player of the Year, suffered both ligament and cartilage damage in his left knee. He was injured at the end of a 36-yard
run early in UCO's 42-30 Lone Star Conference win over Harding last Saturday. The 5-9, 213-pound senior from Eagle Lake, Texas will undergo surgery at a later date. Donner finishes his UCO career with 2,608 yards and 31 touchdowns on 424 carries. -4

Bronchos Return...
UCO hosts LSC foes By Justin Villines SportsWriter
--Photo by Tony Oltmann Junior Thomas Fairley dunks the ball in the warm-up of "Midnight Madness" last Friday morning.
The Central Oklahoma women's soccer team returns to Tom Thompson Field today for a Lone Star Conference match against East Central University. The Bronchos, ranked No. 17 in the NCAA Division II polls, are coming off a weekend split with two LSC rivals. UCO crushed Angelo State 4-0 last Friday and then lost to defending LSC champions Midwestern State 3-2 in overtime on Sunday. Head Coach Mike Cook is happy with the ranking and attention his team is receiving, but he has only one goal. "The ratings are good, but our main goal is to make the conference tournament," Cook said. The top four teams in the LSC will qualify for the conference tournament in
Wichita Falls, TX. The Bronchos are number three behind Texas A&MCommerce and West Texas A&M. Junior Sally Holmes and Freshman Kim Brown continue to lead the Bronchos offense attack. Holmes leads the team with 18 goals while Brown has 16. Holmes and Brown have scored 34 of the Bronchos' 60
goals. The Bronchos are leading the LSC in scoring averaging 3.75 goals per game and have outscored the opposition 60-16. Sophomore goalkeeper Amanda Hillier has only allowed two goals all season. UCO will wrap up the regular season with Texas A&MCommerce on Saturday and Northeastern State on Sunda4 Oct. 31.

irst off, trying to get a hold of T-Lee Bell is like trying to pick up a wet watermelon seed It's next to impossible. T-Lee is not only a friend, he is also the starting Defensive End on the UCO Football Team. At six feet and one inch tall and 240 pounds, T-Lee is the smallest lineman on the team. That does not speak for his heart. With strong faith in God and an open mind, Bell likes to test the waters on everything. "I'd like to stay in Oklahoma City and find where God might lead me." Currently, Bell is a 23 year old Senior. He will graduate in May with a degree in Safety. He is also employed with Coca-Cola. "In twenty years, I see myself on a stable foundation,
happy, and growing with my wife and kids. Just doing the damn thing." Bell has already started as he has a beautiful 2 yr. old girl, Ebonee Bell. Speaking of the future, TLee is very pleased with Oklahoma, UCO, and especially the Bronchos Football Team. "I'm very pleased with our fan support. I think we have a strong chance at winning the whole thing." T-Lee started playing football when he was 8 years

old as a running back. "I tried to play running back in High School, but we already had one so I played Linebacker. Then my coach saw that I have a natural ability to get around people, so I was put in at Defensive End. I've been there ever since. Football is
legalized brawling. It's like letting it all out." Bell also set a high school record with 19 quarterback sacks in one year. He also played a bit of baseball. Sports are not the only thing on Bell's mind, though. "Education is very important to

me. I wasn't sent here to play football. It just assists me in accomplishing my goals." Aside from sports, Bell is active in the Black Student Association and Ebony Gospel Arts. In his spare time, Bell likes to watch action suspense movies. "Who done it movies are my favorites. I also like to play a lot of R&B. Just slow relaxing stuff." T-Lee is also single, and likes to have dinner and champagne with someone that he is interested in. "I'm just looking for something more than a wham, bam, thank you ma'am." Upon looking at T-Lee's arm, I noticed he had a tattoo. "Oh, that's my reminder. It says: I will fear no evil, for thou art with me." As for the future, only God can see what awaits T-Lee Bell.

Broncho's fans stand for support By J.W. Reagor Sports!)litor rrhe Broncho's 1 football team is still undefeated; even though there are certain people that believe we are less than the best. Strangely enough, the thought does not bother me because we continue to prove ourselves week after week. We have the ability to come
together as a student body and make an impressive showing. Homecoming is a prime example. It seems that we offended some people in the stands. Some spectators were upset by our spirit. I apologize to them, but send a warning. We are students who have a restless spirit when it comes to our school's athletes. The Broncho's supporters have energy. That is why we as a student section stood for over half of the game.
Our team delivered faithfully. There was not a time that we (the student body) were disappointed, even though some players may have been unsatisfied with their own performance. I cannot say that it is wrong in any way to support your friends on the field or the court. As long as nobody is hurt, give it everything you can muster. We are Bronchos. We are untamed, energetic, and enthusiastic.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK
UCO Bronchos net Texas Women's By Nick Spross
Sports Writer
u
CO's volleyball team clinched a spot in the conference tournament after beating Texas Women's last Saturday in Denton, Texas. The win assures them that they will finish no worst than third in their division.
The Bronchos will next play in the West Texas A&M Invitational at Canyon Texas. Their first opponent will be the host team, third ranked West Texas A&M. Coach Mark Herrin said the team can't be too conservative in their opening match. "We have to take some chances against West Texas A&M," said Herrin. "We can't just sit back and let
them come to us." The Bronchos other two opponents in the Invitational will be Eastern New Mexico and St. Mary's. UCO lost to Eastern New Mexico early in the year. After playing in the West Texas A&M Invitational the Bronchos return home on Oct. 29th against Harding.
Central Oklahoma's Jennifer Steinmetz has been named Lone Star Conference North Division Setter of the Week for her performance in two UCO wins last week Steinmetz, a junior from Mansfield, Texas, led the Bronchos to back-to-back wins over Texas A&M-Commerce and Texas Woman's last week. She had 71 assists in the two wins while adding 17 digs, three service aces and three assisted blocks. —UCO Sports Information

Proposed bill would punish bogus scholarship swindlers By Christine Tatum
CollegePressMiriter
A
bill up for consideration in Congress would stiffen penalties for con artists swindling money from students looking for college scholarships. If approved, the College Scholarship Fraud Prevention Act of 1999 would add 10 years to the prison sentences of those convicted of fraudulent activity involving education and would make it more difficult for people offering bogus scholarships to protect their profits by declaring bankruptcy. The bill also would require the Federal Trade Commission and Department of Education to maintain a web site containing information about legitimate college scholarships. The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Spencer Abraham (RMich.) and Russell D. Feingold (D-Wisc.), is pending before the Senate Judiciary Committee. A similar resolution has been
introduced in the House. "A growing number of profiteering con artists are exploiting students' need to pay for college in ways that are constantly evolving and are proving highly effective," Sen. Abraham said. "These scams are everywhere." Since 1996, the FTC has shut down eight organizations that have defrauded 175,000 people of more than $22 million. Experts say that's a pittance compared to the hundreds of millions of dollars they believe are being bilked from unsuspecting students and parents. Seemingly legitimate services promising to find scholarships "or your money back" have popped up on campus bulletin boards, in mailboxes and on dozens of web sites. The scams generally require students to pay a small finder's fee and fill out questionnaires designed to help the company determine which scholarships are best suited for the student.
"If you have to pay money to get money, it is probably a scam," said Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of www.finaid.org , a web site with a comprehensive collection of information about student financial aid that is free for all to use. "A scholarship is about gaining money - not giving money." Students should be leery of unsolicited scholarship services, said Monica Brahler, a public relations coordinator for Southern Illinois University's financial aid office. She said students should not hesitate to look into a company or service's past before deciding to do business with them. The Better Business Bureau and a state's Attorney General's Office are good resources for checking into the validity of a scholarship service's claims, she said. "If a business is not willing to give you references or work with you, I think red flags should be going up," she said.

Sorority spirit.. . UCO sororities displayed their spirit during last Friday's pep rally in Wantland Hall. This was part of a cheer and dance competition among the sororities.
Animals allowed in dorms on some college campuses tudents at Shimer College have a new take on the old collegiate term "animal house." School officials, eager to help students combat the stress and drudgery of campus life, allow a menagerie of animals into residence halls. Shimer's students may keep cats, birds, fish, gerbils, rabbits,
toads and turtles in college housing — but each pet must be approved by Jim Donovan, director of campus housing. Shimer's pet policies are a rare exception in campus housing. Most local colleges and universities ban all types of dorm pets, except for small fish -which aren't good for petting or cuddling, Donovan said. The college does have rules for students pet-owners. For starters, dogs aren't allowed because Donovan said they're too needy and messy. Dangerous snakes also are banned. Cats must be spayed or neutered, immunizations are required and there are pet-free zones on the residence halls' first floors. A pet owner must also get permission from a roommate or housemate before the animal is allowed to move in. College Press Services

e waTe up chill Most students have probably taken tests during the past two weeks. Though it seems as if school just started, it is already the middle of the semester. This means that school is half over. For some this is a great time. Their grades are excellent, and they are eager to finish the semester. For others, midterm is a wake-up call. The students who are not doing well realize that they have only half a semester left to improve. But do not worry. Midterm is a good opportunity for students to evaluate their grade status. It gives them a second chance to try for the grade they really want this semester. If a student has bad grades, he can visit his instructor, improve his study habits or even hire a tutor . It is still not too late to take charge of you grade situations. There is always room for improvement. Good luck on the second half of the semester. John Lurry /The Vista
Know the clubs your student fees sponsor, columnist says By Jeremy Reynalds CollegePressWriter
T
he only students usually interested in the deliberations of the U.S. Supreme Court are aspiring lawyers, but an upcoming case should have all students who are concerned about what's going on at their university gripping the edges of their seats. Of course, depending on which ideological persuasion you fall into, you'll be cheering or booing. The case that's causing all the hoopla and undoubtedly will generate a lawsuit or two from our "friends" at the American Civil Liberties Union, is Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin v. Southworth. The case concerns a nationwide university practice of using mandatory student fees to fund campus-based political and ideological groups— many of which are very left of the political center. As Citizen Magazine explained in a recent article: "In 1996, Scott Southworth (a conservative Christian and then a student at the University of Wisconsin at Madison) challenged the funding practice
