Fate sealed for East Hall dorm BY SARAH BLOUNT

Staff Writer he decision to close East Hall last summer will remain a permanent one. After reviewing the future of student residence, the UCO housing committee said the building would be taken down soon, with only speculative plans for replacements. "East Hall was to the point where any type of routine maintenance was going to be extremely expensive," said David Stapleton, director of UCO Architectural Services. "Our goal is to tear East Hall down in the springtime." He said Architectural Services was asked to do a building evaluation almost two years ago and reported that the infrastructure was essentially gone. "We would have had to strip the building to its bare bones," he said. "It doesn't lend itself to more use." Stapleton said there would be plans for more residential quarters if the housing department has enough requests to fill up another 200 spaces, but plans aren't entirely clear right now. "Right now, we'll landscape to humanize the space. We are at least two years away from building more housing." Steve Kreidler, UCO vice president of Administration, said even though there are no plans for the location, priority goes to new housing. "New buildings like the UCO Commons and Suites don't require much maintenance," he said. "Housing pays for itself." West and East Hall are essentially the same age, built in the mid-1950s, but Stapleton said West Hall is in significantly better shape than East Hall. He explained why West Hall has lasted longer. "East Hall has deteriorated

problems finding places to live. Jones said Grubb and Ellis, a real estate company, accommodated East Hall residents. Students filled out applications and the company gave housing recommendations. "The company, at no charge, placed residents in housing within a five to 10 mile radius," Jones said. "We have a lot of vision on campus. East Hall closed at the same time the UCO suites opened," she said. Kreidler said he thought there would be concern from former East Hall residents, but he didn't experience any problems in accommodations. "This has been a very difficult process for everyone," Kreidler said. "But students deserve to have top quality housing." •

uriversity could charge user fees to help fund the maintenance problems in other buildings. How about tearing the building down, but leaving the rubble as a refuge for all the stray animals on this campus? The biology department could use it for a field study in wildlife habitats. While a parking lot seems practical, let's not expect this to happen. Such a decision would surely throw this campus into utter turmoil. •

UCO launches new program for student fund-raising BY DANIEL HOLDGE

Staff Writer

CO has launched a new program on campus with the sole purpose of helping students raise money and develop new ideas. Executive Vice President Don Betz and Vice President for Administration Steve Kreidler are the co-directors of the new university-wide program responsible for fund-raising across campus. The Alliance for Institutional

Advancement (AIA) will be responsible for drawing talent and ideas from across campus to improve the university. Kreidler said the AIA is a way to re-energize fund-raising at UCO. "Fund-raising at UCO will now become everybody's business every day," Kreidler said. The AIA alliance will replace the office of External Affairs and will address the present and future development needs of the university. AIA will develop a team of diverse departments and

individuals to approach this task. Initially, AIA will comprise people from the Presidents Office, Auxiliary Enterprises, Academic Affairs, the UCO Foundation, UCO Alumni, the Athletic Department and several others with strategic insights and skills. "This team is being brought together to create a new consciousness. We expect to discover a new set of talents that we never knew we had," Betz said. Gayle Homes, former project coordinator for External Affairs, will serve as director of communication for AIA. Other staff involved is David Eaton, who will serve as director of development, records and reporting and Brad Williams who will return to UCO as director of fund development. Also Ron Bogle, vice president for External Affairs, will continue as university liaison to external constituencies as well as working with UCO President Roger Webb on a number of new initiatives, projects and programs. •

Narcotics official warns of drug dangers BY I.W. MCBEE

Staff Writer

ark Woodward, public information officer for the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics, spoke Tuesday Oct. 2 at the Pegasus Theater in the Liberal Arts Building about the dangers of illegal drugs. "We've created drug programs and Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) programs to educate the public about what kind of message the world is sending kids," Woodward said. Included in the speech were demonstrations of illicit drugs abused in Oklahoma. "Meth and marijuana overshadow the other drugs in the coverage; heroin and LSD doesn't get the publicity," said Woodward. Woodward discussed the effects of different drugs and showed how many of the popular drugs are manufactured. He also talked about people who manufacture illegal drugs. "Many of these people that manufacture these drugs aren't the most intelligent people in the world," Woodward said. Woodward touched on one method of getting high, huffing, which is inhalation of chemicals. "There is no cure for the damages that occur while huffing.

Many people end up with symptoms similar to Parkinson's disease. One man couldn't even feed himself without stabbing himself in the face," Woodward said. Woodward has conducted about a hundred of these speeches across Oklahoma this year. "I do these demonstrations at elementary schools high schools and colleges. I also train state agencies from local police forces to fire PHOTO BY ELISE CARR departments," said Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics public Woodward. information officer Mark Woodward lectures He said the Oct. 2 on drug use in Oklahoma. most abused drug in Oklahoma is marijuana because of the number his speech is how the potency of of people using it and that it is a drugs is rising.

MY TURN FERO° Rivand McKoon Supervisor, Title Ill Supplemental Instruction

ave you hkl your share of "cultural awakenings" in life? I had mine, just like anyone does when spending some time abroad. I am a Brazilian who lived in England for a couple of years and was afforded with the opportunity of visiting a number of European countries. That gave me a whole new perspective in life and made me so aware of cultural differences that when I moved to America, I thought that I had already seen and done just about anything. Little did I know how wrong I was. My knowing the English Language and being aware of the multicultural issues was not enough. So I began to study reading anything that would make my life easier in America. If one doesn't know what the Mayflower was, the words to "Mary Had a Little Lamb" or whom Martha Stewart is and how she is different from Martha's Vineyard, one doesn't even know what's going on or even get half of the jokes. I mean it! I've always known what was going on around me in Brazil, was updated with the latest news and if they mentioned any politician's name or issue, I'd be right there with them. But, just when I had my answers figured out in that country, I moved to England. When I finally thought I had both countries figured out, a tornado hurled me into this different land, America, and the questions here were, once again, different! It has been a blast learning new things though. I already knew a lot about America from books and from friends I had over here. However, there are

several other things that you just have to live here to find out about. How was I supposed to know that to get married I had to have something borrowed, something blue and what have you? And when you're watching a show and someone says that someone drives like Mr. Maggoo and you're the only person who doesn't get the joke because you don't know who Mr. Maggoo is or even how to spell the man's name! Or when a telemarketer calls and says he's calling on behalf of AT&T and you think AT&T is a person who can't come to the phone! (Next time I'll tell Ma Bell I'm on to her.) It's also hilarious when someone says, "Just follow the yellow brick road, my friend" and you think they're giving you directions! A friend of mine was once in a doctor's waiting room and had a man ask her what planet she was from because she asked him what "Budweiser" was. I swore I was going to hide under a rock with many books and only come out when I knew who this "Big Brother" is that everybody says tries to mind other people's business. I'd be able to hear the names Ulysses Simpson Grant or "Ike" and know whom they are talking about. I'd know that the people who own a place called ``Sleepy Hollow Inn" didn't first coin that name and that the wind didn't blow the horseman's head on their sign. I'd know that George Washington was believed to have once chopped down a cherry tree but now they think he didn't. I'd know that the Unabomber was not a blockbuster movie and that "affirmative action" isn't some kind of positive thinking strategy. I could go on and on talking about the new things I had to learn — and still am learning — but I won't. With hindsight, this all seems really funny, and I have enjoyed each of my different stages here. I have learned that there is no other nation like America. I have learned that there is no better place to live! •

Oct. 6. It was the Bronchos fifth straight loss of the season and fourth straight loss in Lone Star Conference competition. Once again the Bronchos got off to a good start, when Greg

Briley capped off a 10 play, 71—yard scoring drive with a 15—yard touchdown run to put the Bronchos out in front, 7-0. Southwestern struck back with two straight touchdowns to take the lead 14-7,but the Bronchos took the lead late in the second quarter when Briley scored from seven yards out, and A.J. Haglund hit a 48-yard field goal on the final play of the half to put UCO up 17-14 at halftime. After allowing the Bulldogs to reclaim the lead, 21-17, the Bronchos went on a scoring spree. Scoring 19 points to take a 36-24 lead. Briley had his third touchdown of the game capping off a 49-yard drive to start things off. Tarik Abdullah joined in the action getting his first touch down of the day putting the Bronchos up 3021 after Haglund missed the extra point. After a Bulldog field goal to cut the lead to 30-24, quarterback Brett Manning hit Dee Dee Carter back to back for a total of 77 yards and a touchdown. The Bronchos elected to go for two, but Briley was stopped just short of the goal line. So the score remained 36-24. Like last year, turnovers cost the Bronchos the game. UCO lost a pair of fumbles in the final minutes of the game, that opened the door for the bulldogs to comeback and win the game 3736. In last years match up, UCO fumbled three times that enabled Southwestern to overcome a 14-0 deficit and win 27-21. "We're not a good enough

football team to make the mistakes we did and win, "UCO coach Gary Howard said. "We obviously had too many turnovers(four) and they all hurt. At times we played well, both offensively and defensively, but we didn't have the consistency we needed and we just didn't make the plays we had to have in crucial situations." Briley finished the game with 25 carries for 114 yards and three touchdown, he is now just 271 yards away from fifth place on UCO's all-time rushing list. The Bronchos have now lost

the first three games at home this year for their longest home losing streak since 1995. The Bronchos will have another chance to win at home next week when they take on Texas A&M-Kingsville for homecoming. Kickoff is scheduled for 2p.m, For the latest UCO sports imformation log on to the Broncho's official web site at www.broncho.sports.com and for the latest UCO news and information from around the campus visit www.thevistaonline.com . •

Cook said. Kim Brown scored two of UCO's goals, while Valerie Gutierrez chipped in one for the afternoon. Brown, who leads Division II in scoring, got a shot from mid fielder Jessica Mathieu and leftfooted the ball into NSU's goal. Jeorgia McGinty, pulling one out of the hat five minutes into overtime, scored a desperately needed goal to lead the Bronchos to a 1-0 Lone Star Conference win over ECU. The Bronchos, who now improve to 10-3 overall and 2-0 in LSC play, once again out shot their opponents, beating the Tigers 22-9. "We should have scored more than one goal, no question about it," Herrin said. "Our defense was strong today, but you have to give credit to ECU for playing hard." Amanda Hillier, finishing the game with seven saves, kept the goal safe for the Bronchos. At press time, UCO returned to their home turf to host Southwestern Oklahoma at Tom Thompson Field on Sunday, Oct. 7. For the latest UCO news visit www.thevistaonline.com . •

According to court probate documents, Johnson's wealth came from several sources, but the bulk, $192,048, came from his TIAA CREF retirement fund. His remaining assets consisted of a Spanish coin, which was willed to another individual. Ferguson said the coin's value was near $100. KCSC-FM is a full-time, fully staffed station certified by the Corporation of Public Broadcasting. Ferguson said it costs the station about $500,000 a year to operate, so the donation is about a half of a year's operating cost. The station's funding comes from various sources — the

CO's classical music station KCSC-FM in Edmond has something to sing about — they recently received their largest single donation — $272,000. The donation came from an avid listener, Forrest Johnson of Norman, who died at the age of 63 in December 1999. He went into cardiac arrest during minor surgery. "I was informed about a year ago that his estate was coming," said Brad Ferguson, KCSC-FM station manager. "I asked how much and I was told about $60,000 or $70,000. I didn't expect this much. You could have knocked me over with a stick." Ferguson said KCSC-FM has plans to establish an endowment called the KCSC-FM Classical Radio Foundation, which will help subsidize fundraising drives. Ferguson said they've been thinking about this for several years. President Roger Webb gave them permission for a separate foundation last fall. "It's a safety net," he said. "We'll have a corporation set up for donations. The tax exemption is pending, and we'll know for sure in about six months." He said Johnson pledged each year, but was not a regular caller.

university, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and from individual and business donors. The KCSC-FM Classical Radio Foundation will have a separate board of directors: Teresa Brekke, Kirkpatrick Foundation; Wanda Bass, Chairperson of First National Bank of McAlester; and Janet Taliaferro, M.T. Myers Trust. "It's very nice to have something to fall back on," he said. "Most organizations' pledge drives are low this fall because people are donating to the Red Cross." "We're really pleased to have an extra source of funding." •

`Coming Out Week' planned for raising gay awareness B' MICHAEL LARSON

Staff Writer s part of Gay and Lesbian History Month, UCO students will celebrate Coining Out Week from Oct. 812 with a film screening and a candle light vigil. Gay Alliance for Tolerance and Equality (GATE) will operate a table handing out buttons, condoms, and informational pamphlets from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Oct. 8-12 in the University Center across from the food court. "Coming out week helps raise awareness for gay and lesbian community," said Richard Kingston, graphic art junior and president of GATE at UCO. "It's a good way for people to get involved in campus activities and learn more about the group." GATE will have a free screening called "Years of Queers: Our History on Film" at 7 p.m. on Oct. 10 in Room 300 of the University Center. The Gaily Oklahoman is now available on a periodical rack in the Will Chambers Library entry hall. Kingston said, "OU and OSU have had the Gayly on campus, and we just wanted it on campus to give it to students as a resource." "We've gotten the library's full support in placing it there." The organization will also hold a candlelight vigil at 8 p.m. on Oct. 11 on the west side of Broncho Lake entitled "End the Hate". Kingston said, "It's to show our support against hate crimes." Residence Life Coordinator Mandy Whitten is GATE's faculty sponsor and will speak at

the vigil. Whitten said, "The vigil originated at UCO 3 years ago. It's a way for all to get together

and celebrate our differences — those that have been persecuted because we're all of different because of their differences." races, religions, and sexual Karl Tyler, management orientations — and remember information systems sophomore

and GATE secretary, said the event is open to the public and that candles will be provided. •
