Fall enrollment numbers beginning to climb By Julie Jordan Shins,iler

all enrollment is up 1.6 percent this semester compared to last fall, according to Jerry Legere, assistant vice president of enrollment management. There are 14,283 students enrolled this fall and only 14,063 students last fall. "The biggest change is in the freshman enrollment," Legere said. There is a record number of first-time freshmen enrolled, with a 15 percent increase over last fall. Stacey McNeiland, director of Prospective Student Services, offered
several reasons for the increase in enrollment. High school graduation rates are up and expected to continue rising until 2006, McNeiland said. "We are not the only university experiencing higher numbers, most are experiencing an increase," McNeiland said. Another reason offered by McNeiland was increased funding with a $270,00 increase in tuition wavers. Finally, three additional recruitment officers were hired. In the past the staff was only able to visit each high school once a year, but with a bigger staff they will be able to cover more of the state and visit each high school at least twice a
year, McNeiland said International enrollment, which was down 10.5 percent this summer, is up 2.3 percent this fall compared to last fall, Legere said. "I was very concerned about enrollment because of the economic crisis in Asia," said Dr. Ronald Paddack, director of the International Office. Paddack said there were significant decreases in students from the People's Republic of China and Malaysia because of the economic crisis, but increases in countries such as India made up for it. "There are currently 91 countries (represented) on campus and my dream, before I retire, is to have 100 countries on campus at one time," Paddack said. -4(

aving problems finding a parking space? Imagine having to park near Hamilton Field House for your 8 a.m. English class. You trudge through packed student parking lots, and one nearly empty faculty/staff lot, to get to the Liberal Arts Building. Once there, five minutes late, you discover your professor won't count your presence because he or she has already taken roll. Meanwhile, down the hall, another professor is continually late to class, despite having a nearly empty parking lot in which to leave his or her car. This professor is wasting the students' time and money, but the students have no recourse for punishing the instructor. This is a daily scenario at UCO. According to Auxiliary Services, there are 3,000 faculty/staff parking spaces on this campus. Only 1,000 faculty/staff permits have been issued so far this semester. That means there are 2,000 unused parking spaces that tuitionpaying students are forbidden to use. Perhaps it is time all campus parking became first-come, firstserved, with only one permit for students, faculty and s aff. That would take care of the prime, unused parking spaces, and maybe, just maybe, even the playing field between professors and those who provide the money for their salaries.

Student Senate conception underway By Mark A. Schneberger Staffi*Or
N
o matter how hard UCO students sometimes wish, dreams don't always come true. But they will next week for UCO Student Association (UCOSA) President Derrek Belase, who dreamt hard and long about forming a university Student Senate. His dreams will come true next week when over 100 members of the newly formed Student Senate fill Room 300 of the University Center to begin official business. "I am very excited to get the Senate running. We have been working on this project since we were freshmen," Belase said. "It is a dream come true." The first senate meeting will be held at 1 p.m. Monday, Sept. 21 in Room 300 of the
University Center. UCOSA Vice President Shelia Barnes will preside over the meeting and Chief Justice of the UCOSA Supreme Court Corey Smith will swear in the senators. Speaker of the House of Representatives Dale Archer, Student Affairs Vice President Dr. Kathryn Gage and UCOSA Senate Sponsor Lynn Means will also be present. Belase said he is not the only one elated about the Senate. "President Webb is looking forward to working with (the senate). He expressed his excitement last week and I know that he has faith in the system..." he said. While excited about the senate's future, Belase warned that not all senate seats may be filled. He said each officially recognized UCO organization and club must elect a senator, but
not all senate declaration applications have been delivered to his office. Clubs will not receive student activity fee funding if they have not elected senators, Belase said. "These new rules come from a constitutional change signed by University President W. _„, t114 _ iai Roger Webb in May of last year," Belase said. "It represents a major change in the way that student activities have been allocated. In the past, an administrative committee has

didn't contain specific news articles or editorials, (the judge) felt that distinguished it from a newspaper or other public forum. Obviously, we think the judge is a tad misguided in his reasoning." The case is now being appealed and will appear before the Sixth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in Cincinnati, Ohio, reported KnightRidder. Mark Goodman, executive director of the Student Press Law Center, said, "This ruling is going to affect every college student who wants to express a viewpoint in any school-sponsored forum, whether it's in the college newspaper or in a college play or on a debate team." UCO's school-sponsored yearbook and newspaper will be affected differently because one is a public forum and one is not. Whether or not a publication is a public forum determines whether or not it receives First Amendment protection, said Dr. Ron Beeson, associate professor of political science. For a publication to be considered a public forum, it must not be produced for class credit or grades. If it is a credit course, then it is not a public forum, Beeson said. "The yearbook (Bronze Book) is an administrative function (not a public forum) because it gets its money from the administrative budget," said Dr. William Hickman, Bronze Book advisor. Another reason the Bronze Book is not considered a public forum is that it can be used as a recruitment device when recruitment officers hand out yearbooks to high school students. Recruitment is an administrative function, Hickman said. Hickman does not believe that there will be a problem with the Bronze Book living up to administrator's standards, because the Bronze Book represents the full campus experience. Dr. Sherri Massey, advisor for The Vista, said that the Kentucky State yearbook case should not affect The Vista. Because The Vista is not a credited course, "The Vista enjoys the same freedom of the press as The Daily Oklahoman and New York Times," said Beeson.

Yearbooks, like UCO's 1998 Bronze Book, could be censored because administrators at Kentucky State University found their own 1994-95 yearbook did not meet their standards of quality and confiscated the books. The case is before a federal judge. UCO's Bronze Book should not be affected by the ruling, according to Dr. William Hickman, Bronze Book advisor.

Columnist's diet hard to swallow, says reader admire the gall with which Mr. Wedel writes in this age of politically correct campus. It allows for a real dialogue to begin as opposed to a false peace of fear-induced silence. Nevertheless, it is on this open ground that I wish to address a couple statements from his article published last Thursday. First, most Americans have recognized that the soldiers of Vietnam are not to be blamed for such a misguided war, but does this mean "they risked their lives defending freedom?" Vietnam was merely one act of the cold-war coloristic endeavors of the United States. It was a war about power which does not necessary equal freedom as we are
/
quickly discovering in the 90s. If he means the freedom of the South Vietnamese, well, then we find ourselves in the delicate position of choosing sides in the various civil wars that are currently raging around the globe. I also find his concern for the freedom of the South Vietnamese interesting in light of his next paragraph. "Since its discovery by white Europeans, America has been the pearl of the world." Are Spanish and Italian people white? I guess we should ask Juan -Ponce de Leon, Amerigo Vespucci and Christopher Columbus. Or maybe he was thinking of Leif Ericson, but if we are going to go that far back, we should
consider all Native American people too. Not only is his statement incorrect, but it reeks of racism and provincialism. At least the second part of his statement is up for debate. I, for one, would argue against it. America was a pearl before all the colonist arrived. What we have tried to shape it into or powder it down to is beyond me. This brings me to the next sentence. "Everyone wants what we have—the natural resources, the freedom, the intangibles that make America great." Does Mr. Wedel realize that the average citizen of the United States consumes three times more energy and resources in one year than the average citizen of
BOARS HEAD RESTAURANT & PUB DINING • DANCING • GAMES • POOL
Germany and something like 150 times more than the average citizen of India? Certainly no one can challenge our ability to consume, and it is also certain that if the rest of the world tries, it won't work. Does this make us great? Or is it all those "intangibles?" I highly value the freedom available in this country, and I do appreciate our veterans, but in the words of e.e. cummings' Olaf, "There is some s. I will not eat" and Mr. Wedel is trying to pass some of his off as a bi-weekly meal.

College enrollment at record high, education department says By Christine Tatum
CollegePtess CHICAGO - More students are heading to college than ever, according to a study released Monday by the U.S. Department of Education. A record 14.6 million freshmen enrolled in school this fall - about 240,000 more firstyear students than a year ago. The booming freshman
classes are directly linked to an increasing number of high school graduates. Last year, a record-breaking 67 percent of high school seniors went directly to college. That number is projected to rise another 17 percent over the next decade, said Tom Snyder, director of the department's National Center for Education Statistics. "It's very difficult to say

"But in this case, many young people feel that getting a college education is a really big help when it comes to finding a good-paying job. And they're right." While enrollment of nontraditional students, particularly those older than 35, is up 7 percent, it's the younger

UCO Central Museum of Art features African artifacts By Madhu Krishnamurthy StaffRitiltY
A
rt lovers interested in ancient African history and culture, can visit the UCO Central Museum of Art and Design for its African Ancestry in Clay and Stone exhibit. The exhibit gives some insight into the rich cultural development in early Africa, by featuring an assembly of 500 B.C. to 1500 A.D. clay works. These artifacts are from the Sub-Saharan regions of Chad, Sierra Leone and the Republic of Congo. The exhibit opened Aug. 30 and runs through Oct. 9. "The purpose of this exhibit is to show some of the older African art, and to hopefully give a better understanding of some of the differences in African culture. It gives students some
historical perspective," said Dr. William Hommel, guest curator of the exhibit. African art is typically more inclined towards sculptures than paintings or weaving. A lot of students are interested because it is a kind of inspiration, Hommel said. "Stylization is very different from what contemporary western artists have done. It has a different way of representing things," Hommel said. "When you look at art from another culture, you have to understand their religion, their political systems, their history to understand what the art meant to them," he said. The museum has conducted several exhibits of African art over the years. Most of the pieces in the exhibit represent a more figurative, family style. Some of the pieces on display have been loaned from the
Kirkpatrick Center at the Omniplex. Others were donated from the large private collections of Perry and Angela Tennison, who intend to contribute art pieces to the museum over a period of years. "This show has definitely got some anthropological aspects to it," said William Wallo, director of the Central Museum. Museum hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mon.Fri, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday, and 1-5 p.m. This art piece was made by the Kongo/Mende Mahen Yafe people, and Sundays. For more is dated from16th-9th century.

Binge drinking no better than it was four years ago, study says By Christine Tatum
CollegePress CHICAGO - More than half of American college students drank to get drunk last year, and the number of binge drinkers is virtually the same as it was four years ago, according to a study released Thursday by the Harvard School of Public Health. The survey of 14,521 students is the sequel to a 1993 analysis of students' alcohol consumption. Both studies were based on responses from randomly chosen students attending 130 colleges across the country. The latest report, published this month in the Journal of American College Health, shows that 52 percent of students drank to get tanked in 1997, compared with 39 percent in 1993. Overall, the number of students who binge—defined as five drinks in a row for men and four in a row for women—dropped slightly,

"Postponing things until the millennium is not the way to handle the problems of today," he said. While the study did not show which colleges had the most drinkers, it did indicate that binging students are more likely to be found on campuses throughout the Northeast and Midwest. Students at historically black and women's colleges and commuter schools where few students live in dormitories tend to drink less, the study also indicated. _ Identifying the problem of binge drinking is far simpler than finding ways to stop it, Wechsler said. And to make any change, everyone—including alumni who toddle back to "tailgating parties on campus so they can get intoxicated" - needs to assume responsibility in the fight against unhealthy drinking habits, he added. Campuses shouldn't necessarily ban alcohol, just ensure that students

of age are drinking responsibly, he said. "We have to know all the contributing factors to this behavior—the fraternities, the tradition surrounding athletics and the sale of alcohol for dirt cheap in bars and stores throughout the community," Wechsler said. "This is a call for college presidents and students to develop codes of behavior that is acceptable on campus. And as people transgress those codes, they have to be dealt with accordingly." The crafting of new policies should be interesting, Wechsler said, noting that one in five students are frequent binge drinkers, while another one in five abstain from alcohol consumption. Falling between the two extremes is one-fifth of students who binge occasionally and two-fifths who drink but do not binge.

y
ou know that guy on the show "Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place?" The tall one who's always causing trouble for his friends? That's who Jacob Sowers reminds me of. That guy, I think his name is Berg, has his own way of seeing the world. His is a slightly skewed vision, but if you can hang with him for a bit, it all makes sense in some strange way. That holds true for Jacob, too. When I asked Jacob what issue he would tackle as part of his own grass roots movement,
apathy. "If you're registered to vote, go vote," Jacob said: his voice rising with passion. "What does it take? Two minutes?" Jacob went on to complain about how few Americans even register to vote, and then how few of those who do register actually go to the polls. "If you don't vote, go find another country," he advised. "Millions of people have died to protect our right to vote. Are we just going to let that slip away?" Jacob, who is a sophomore studying social studies education, hopes he can someday use his teaching position to inspire young
If you don't go vote, go find another country. —Jacob Sowers
I expected him to go right into some aspect of Kenneth Starr's report about President Clinton. He surprised me. "Apathy," he said. "The thing that disgusts me the most is
people to take part in their government. In the meantime, he has a plan he thinks would help people get involved, and give more control back to the constituents. "I'd start another political
party," Jacob said. "It wouldn't take any contributions, so it probably wouldn't win any elections, but it would be a party for the people." That doesn't sound so radical—Ross Perot tried something similar. However, Jacob had some ideas that might even take Perot by surprise. Representatives who won elections in Jacob's party wouldn't go to our nation's capital. "Washington could corrupt the pope," Jacob said. His representatives would stay where they were elected and use the computer to cast their votes. Current technology, which has allowed us to watch a baby being born, could allow government officials to stay right in the community where they were elected and still take part in the political process. "Money is running things too much," Jacob said as a way of explaining why the representatives should stay home. "No matter who votes, they would get their voice heard," he continued. "The National Rifle Association gets heard because they have money. This way, everyone could be heard. "It's not like the old days when you had to hitch a horse up
to a buggy and travel 30 miles to talk to someone who represents you. Anybody should be able to come into their (representative's) office." But even if you can't get in a car and drive to the office of your government official just to make your opinions known, there's always the Internet and email. "Everyone has access to a computer," Jacob said. At this point I was going to mention that people can already e-mail their representatives in Washington, but I remembered that none of my own electronic missives have ever been answered, so I let Jacob continue. "If politicians are spread out,
lobbyists can't get to them so easy," he said. "And, if the politician voted in a way the people who elected him didn't like, he'd have 100 angry people outside his office the next morning." That seemed to be the key to Jacob's idea—put the politicians back among the people they are supposed to represent. "They should have to answer to the people rather than to the lobbyists," Jacob said. "They are first and foremost supposed to represent the people from their district." How's that for some radical thinking? Who'd like to see Governor Keating talking politics as he worked side by side with a hog farmer?

"It feels good to win this award," said Derek Shankland, Sigma Tau Gamma president. "We've done this tournament for four years and that's the most money we've ever raised." Fraternity advisor Mike Morkes added, "It's an honor to be recognized by our brothers from across the nation." The fraternity worked with community sponsors Interurban, Hollow Tree and The Adams Course, to make the two-day tournament a success. "Thanks to a big response from the Edmond and Oklahoma City community, we were able to make this a successful event for MDA," said Chris Green, volleyball tournament chairman. In addition to the national chapter award, Shankland was presented with a $500 scholarship for his academic standing and leadership in the fraternity. <

Chronology of the Clinton-Lewinsky controversy WASHINGTON - Here is a listing of important events in the Lewinsky controversy: •June 1995 - Lewinsky, 21, arrives at the White House as an intern in the office of Chief of Staff Leon Panetta. December 1995 - Lewinsky moves to a paid position in the White House, in the office of legislative affairs. April 1996 - Then-Deputy White House Chief of Staff Evelyn Lieberman transfers Lewinsky to a job in the Pentagon, citing her "inappropriate and immature behavior." Lewinsky meets Linda Tripp there, a career government worker. Fall 1997 - Literary agent Lucianne Goldberg urges Tripp to begin taping conversations in which Lewinsky details her alleged affair with President Bill Clinton. December 1997 - Lewinsky leaves the Pentagon. She is subpoenaed by lawyers for Paula Jones, who is suing the president on sexual harassment charges. Lewinsky visits the White House after receiving the subpoena and meets privately
with Clinton. Jan. 7, 1998 - Lewinsky files an affidavit in the Jones case denying a sexual relationship with Clinton. Jan. 12 - Tripp contacts the office of Whitewater independent counsel Kenneth Starr to talk about Lewinsky and the tapes she made of their conversations. In the tapes, Lewinsky reportedly details an affair with Clinton and indicates that he and his friend Vernon Jordan told her to lie about it under oath. Jan. 13 - Tripp, wired by FBI agents working with Starr, meets with Lewinsky at a Washington hotel and records their conversation. Jan. 14 - Lewinsky gives Tripp a document headed "Points to make in an affidavit," coaching Tripp on what to tell Jones' lawyers about Kathleen Willey, another former White House staffer, if Tripp testifies. Willey recently had testified about alleged unsolicited sexual advances made by the president in 1993. Jan. 16 - Starr asks Attorney General Janet Reno for
Are You ••• Sick And Tired of Feeling Sick And Tired?
permission to expand his probe. Reno agrees and submits the request to a panel of three federal judges, who allow Starr to formally investigate the possibility of subornation of perjury and obstruction of justice in the Jones case. Tripp and Lewinsky meet again at the hotel. FBI agents and U.S. attorneys intercede and take Lewinsky to a hotel room, where they question her and offer her immunity. Jan. 17 - Clinton gives a deposition in the Jones lawsuit denying having had a sexual relationship with Lewinsky. Jan. 21 - Several news organizations report the alleged sexual relationship between Lewinsky and Clinton. Clinton denies the allegations. Jan. 22 - Clinton reiterates his denial of a relationship and says he never urged Lewinsky to lie. Jan. 26 - Clinton forcefully repeats his denial, saying, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky." Jan. 29 - The judge in the Paula *Tones lAsuit rifles that Lewinsky is "not essential to the core issues" of the Jones case,
and orders that all evidence related to her be excluded from the Jones proceedings. April 1 - Judge Susan Webber Wright dismisses the Paula Jones case. April 14 - Starr files a sealed motion in U.S. District Court to compel the testimony of uniformed Secret Service agents. April 16 - Starr withdraws from consideration for the deanship at Pepperdine University Law School, saying an end to his investigation "was not yet in sight." April 30 - In his first news conference since the Lewinsky story broke, Clinton accuses Starr of leading a "hard, well-financed, vigorous effort" to undercut his presidency. May 6 - Clinton's personal attorney, David Kendall, accuses Starr's office of "flagrant leaks." May 22 - Federal Judge Norma Holloway Johnson rules that the Secret Service must testify before the grand jury in the Lewinsky controversy. June 2 - Lewinsky replaces attorney William Ginsburg with a team of experienced
Washington litigators, Jacob Stein and Plato Cacheris. June 30 - Tripp appears before the grand jury for the first time. July 7 - The U.S. Court of Appeals rules that Secret Service agents must testify before the grand jury, upholding the earlier decision. July 17 - Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist denies an extension of a temporary stay on Secret Service testimony. The subpoenaed agents appear before the grand jury, although only three testify. July 26 - Word emerges that Starr has served Clinton with a subpoena that calls for his testimony before the Lewinsky grand jury. Negotiations are under way on the scope, timing and format of his testimony. July 27 - Lewinsky meets with Starr's prosecutors in New York, reportedly telling them she had a sexual relationship with Clinton, but refusing to say he told her to lie about it. July 28 - Lawyers for Lewinsky and Starr work out a full immunity agreement V. See CLINTON, Page 16

Unusual partnership forms make-believe story
By Julie Jordan MIAOW,
W
hy does Snow White always triumph over the wicked Queen, and Lassie always saves the day? The plots are so familiar you
could recite them in your sleep. I am referring to movies, for young adults and children, traditionally ending with the hero or heroine riding off into the sunset never to be troubled again. Until "The Mighty." Once upon a time there was an over sized, awkward kid named Max. Max lives with his grandparents because dear old dad is in prison. Max is constantly teased by the other children because of his appearance and lack of a functioning brain. This all changes when Kevin, a sickly, crippled boy moves in next door. The two are pushed together when Kevin is assigned to be Max's reading tutor. The unusual partnership is sealed when Max
lifts Kevin up onto his shoulders to see fireworks at the fairâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Freak the Mighty is born. Sound like the usual kiddy plot? I didn't think so. As Max reads "King Arthur and His Knight" their heroic adventures with Kevin the brain and Max the body begin. They remain in this fantasy world until Max is jerked into reality while returning a purse to a fair maiden. Max encounters Loretta (Gillian Anderson) and Iggy (Meat Loaf), old buddies of his dad. The demons of his past come knocking when Loretta drunkenly marvels at the amazing likeness between him and his dad "Killer Kane." As Kevin's degenerative disease worsens and Max's excon dad gets paroled, their fairytale existence ends. Sharon Stone is excellent as Kevin's over protective mother,
and Harry Dean Stanton and Gena Rowlands are Grim and Gram, Max's grandparents who look after Max. In "The Might", reality and fantasy are blurred together as armored knights romp through the forest alongside Kevin and
Max. This could have made the movie unbelievable, but it worked for me because kids' thoughts are never realistic. So don't expect Sleeping Beauty to miraculously awaken in "The Mighty" because no one really lives happily ever after. <
