is how a freshman's graduation plans can be seen, said Evelyn Wilson, dean of enrollment services. "There has been concern in Oklahoma that students have not been able to graduate in four years," Wilson said. An optional "Time-to Degree Program" was initiated by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education beginning this fall. It addresses the responsibilities of students and universities toward reaching a timely completion of a specific degree program. Regents enacted the program to make it easier for students to stay in school and graduate in a timely fashion, said Dr. Mike Shirley, author of the program and interim vice president of Academic Affairs.

UCO's library online service gives access to databases By Kate O'Neill SlaffWiriter

CO's Max Chambers Library has several new services this fall designed to increase accessibility and convenience for students. The library's three electronic databases, EBSCOHost, FirstSearch and SearchBank, now have remote access. Students can use the library's databases online at home or in another building on campus, said Gwen Dobbs reference and

instruction librarian. Dobbs said students must obtain a pass word and authorization number from the library's reference desk, in order to take advantage of this service. "This provides increased access for the university because you no longer have to be in the building (library) to do research," Dobbs said. Students can get instruction on how to use the online services by tapping into the library's web page at http://library.ucok.edu .

By using the web page, students can also conduct an interlibrary loan, find general information such as the library's hours, ask reference questions through email, print articles from more than 2,200 full text journals and locate government agencies. "Electronic information is a huge trend in libraries world wide," Dobbs said. "People expect state of the art." Students can also take advantage of the color copier on the fourth floor, and the new copy and retrieval service which

charge students 25 cents per page to locate their articles and make copies. "This is very convenient for commuters and we have more and more distance learners on campus," said Abbey Warner, reference and instruction librarian. Three library instruction classes were also introduced this week. Dobbs said professors were encouraged to attend with their classes, or students could attend the sessions individually, to become informed of new services or refresh their researching skills.

Webb seeks new student population

CO President W. Roger Webb said several interesting things in recent articles in The Daily Oklahoman and The Edmond Evening Sun. It seems Webb is no longer happy with the "non-traditional" students who have been the backbone of this "commuter" college. Webb was quoted as saying he wants to increase the quality of campus life, "...by increasing the number of full-time students." Judging by the Sun article, Webb seems to believe "full-time students" means only younger, "traditional" students. Another interesting item was the president's plan to increase our Student Activity Fee by $25 so he can build a $7 million fitness-wellness center on campus. If he builds it, who will come? Why spend the money for such a facility when exercise equipment is already available in Hamiliton Field House and Wantland Hall? The non-traditional commuters who have chosen UCO for their education, and pay their Student Activity Fees, certainly won't feel welcome in his new facility. < Cartoon by Pujan Roka/The Vista

UCO professor receives outstanding teaching award

Continued from front page it in black and white," Wilson said. The signing of the contract submits a student to accept responsibility for consulting regularly with their academic advisor, enrolling in appropriate courses for their degree program, taking a designated number of course hours each semester, and remaining in good academic standing. When the appropriate coursework is not available and the student has satisfied their contract responsibilities, the contract submits UCO to making adjustments. Such adjustments would be for a completed course to be substituted for a needed but unavailable course, or for a student to receive permission to enroll in a class that has reached its maximum capacity, Wilson said. The program is available to firstDr. Mike Shirley time freshmen only. "It gives assurance to students and their parents that the student will graduate in four years. The program requires a large responsibility and commitment from the student," Wilson said. Twenty-one other Oklahoma colleges and universities have initiated the program this fall.

Dr. Ron Beeson

r\r. Ron Beeson has _L./visited all 50 states in his leisure time, but his recent trip to Massachusetts brought

him national recognition. Beeson, associate professor of political science, received. the Outstanding Teaching in Political Science Award, Sept. 2, at the annual American Political Science Association (APSA) meeting in Boston, Mass. Last May, Beeson was presented with a campus award for outstanding teacher from the Mortar Board during a department of liberal arts ceremony. From that award, Dr. Louis Furmanski, chairperson and associate professor of political science, presented Beeson's name to APSA for the national award. "His concern for students and his willingness to take the time to speak with them outside the classroom are some of his teaching qualities," Furmanski said.

"The award is a capstone experience of my 25year teaching career. To be recognized by a college of liberal arts national academic affiliation organization is extremely rewarding," Beeson said. Since 1989, UCO students have received the privilege, of Beeson's teachings. From 1979-81, Beeson taught at the University of Swaziland in southern Africa as a Peace Corps volunteer. He also taught at Langston University and Southeastern Oklahoma State University, as well as other institutions in Texas, Georgia, and Mississippi. Beeson received his bachelor's degree in secondary education with political science history at Texas Tech University, a master's in education from UCO, a doctorate of arts in political science (abd) at the University of Mississippi, and a doctorate of higher education teaching political science at Oklahoma State University. After 25 years of teaching, Beeson made the decision to retire. This is his final year at UCO. After retirement, Beeson plans to travel with this wife Jennifer. "We've been in all 50 states and I've been in 22 foreign countries. But, we plan to travel in this country and possibly overseas some," he said. 4(

t's midnight, you're on your fifth cup of coffee and you're mindlessly flipping through reruns of "Jerry Springer" and "Rambo IV." You ocassionally glance at the Internet assignment on an empty pizza box, but finally throw it across the room because you have no idea how to use the Internet.

Sound familiar? If it does, you need to run over to the Liberal Arts Building and sign up for a free workshop on email and the Internet. The workshops, which began Sept. 15 and will continue until Nov. 19, are for faculty and students. The workshops vary from topics such as basic PC usage, to web page production. The workshops are geared toward the basics, to help dispel students' fears about

using programs, said David Wilson, workshop coordinator. Wilson will be teaching the 50-minute workshops, and students and faculty are encouraged to sign up for as many workshops as they want. But Wilson said workshops are mainly for freshmen who have very little or no computer experience. "We won't turn anyone away, but if you sign up, please come," Wilson said. Students attending the EMail and Internet workshop need to get an e-mail address at the Math and CoMputer Science Building. "Students can get an account in 2 minutes," Wilson said. Students pay a technology fee so they can use the computer labs and the Internet, but many are not aware of this. "It is a service they have already paid for and they should utilize it," Wilson said. Keith Bowden, technology lab director, started the workshops last year, but Wilson said this year he wants to make it more organized and profesional.

The workshops are from 2-2:50 p.m. The dates of the workshops are: • Sept. 15 and 17, Basic PC usag e • Sept. 22 and 24, E-Mail and Internet • Sept. 29, MS Word (basic) • Oct. 1, How to use Tech. in the classroom • Oct. 6, MS Word (advanced) • Oct. 8, PowerPoint (basic) • Oct. 13, PowerPoint (advanced) * • Oct. 13, Word Perfect (basic) • Oct. 27, Word Perfect (advanced) • Oct. 29, MS Word (basic) • Nov. 3, PowerPoint (basic) • Nov. 5, MS Word (advanced) • Nov. 10, PowerPoint (advanced) • Nov. 12, Word Perfect (basic) • Nov. 17, Web Page Production • Nov. 19, Web Page Production * This workshop will be held from 3-3:50 p.m.

Duct tape supports more than air ducts

first AGER

f you want to keep your breasts looking perky without wearing bra, use duct tape. Or use the fix-all tape to keep the fender from flying off your car. But don't use duct tape to seal your ducts. In a report released recently by the Lawrence Berkeley National

Laboratory in Calif.. researchers I concluded that duct tape is dangerously inefficient for sealing ducts. It allows over 400 times more air to leak out of ductwork than most other industrial tapes and sealants. And it could be a safety hazard if used on furnaces, the report said. Physicist Max Sherman and lain Walker, a mechanical engineer at the lab, conducted a series of tests which they claim prove that duct tape does not seal ducts. In their experiments, they compared the tape against several less-used sealants—mastic, foilbacked tape and injected aerosol sealant.

Unnecessary Congressional Organization Struts Authority

emember how, when you were a kid, you'd start little clubs and try to get other kids to join them? What did you do if you didn't get as many kids in your club as you wanted? Well, maybe you knew the guy who owned the only candy store in town. So, you went to him and got him to agree not to let any other kid have any candy unless at least one person from every other club in town joined your club. That's what UCO's Student Association (UCOSA) has done by forming the new student senate. As the president of one campus organization, I think I have a right to address this situation—not that UCOSA ever asked for my opinion. I think the best place to begin looking at the truth of this matter is by examining why our student government doesn't work. The House of Representatives is just over half full. Of the 45 seats in the House, only 28 are filled. That's up from last spring. The UCOSA president was elected by default simply because no one ran against him. No one is joining the UCOSA club, so they decided to coerce members of other organizations into their little

group. One reason people aren't participating in the student government process is because of the people already there. My association with this newspaper has put me in contact with several people on campus who are disgusted by the way issues are handled by our wannabe politicians in UCOSA. Look at the recent attempt to disband the Presidents Club. Without warning, and at the last moment, the UCOSA president called for them to disband and ignore their commitments to the community and to their members. His reasoning? The Presidents Club is duplicating the function of the unwanted student senate. Fortunately for UCO, the Presidents Club stood against UCOSA and decided to stay together. I know they'll have enemies now, and I wish them well. I think there's a reason even more compelling than the lack of integrity by some of UCOSA's officials that keep students out of the governing process. That reason is called The Real World. UCO is a commuter college. The average age of a UCO student is 27. By that age, most people are working full time and have a family—a higher education is something they struggle to

work into their schedule. And participation in a campus organization usually comes at the cost of work or family time. That leaves no time to take part in a student senate. And yet, because of UCOSA, every student organization will now have to send a representative to this new entity just to stay alive—or, in other words, to receive Student Activity Fee money. Aren't the students already saying where they want the money to go when they join a club that serves their interests? I know from my association with a few campus organizations that it is very hard to get people to commit their time to being officers, even when they are devoted to the goals of the club. Now these organizations will have to beg for a member to step forward and take on another, unwanted, responsibility. Frankly, I am disappointed that President Webb signed this legislation into law, knowing full well UCO's status as a commuter college with an older, busy population. Perhaps, if this school was filled with younger people living off hand-outs from their mommies and daddies, a student senate would be feasible. As it is, however, working adults don't have

World class cellist joins UCO teaching staff By Madhumathi Krishnamurthy StaffMkt

r. Tess RemySchumacher raised a few eyebrows last week with her performance playing the cello, at Mitchell Hall Theater. The new assistant professor of music arrived at UCO only two weeks ago from Australia. However, Schumacher is not new• to the United States. Commuting back and forth from Australia she completed her doctorate at the University of Southern California in Feb. 1998. Her performance at Mitchell Hall was also the debut for the university's newly formed cello ensemble, a group overseen by Schumacher. Originally from Germany, Schumacher has traveled the world giving concerts, and was teaching at the James Cook University in Australia, when she first heard of the position at UCO. "I've always wanted to live in America. I wanted to move closer to where I perform my

concerts, both in America and Europe," Schumacher said. Schumacher has performed and recorded in New York, Los Angeles, London, and Germany. On average she gives about 50 to 60 recitals a year. She also played in Thailand, Singapore, Australia, Hungary and Austria, and appeared on Italian and Swiss television. From her debut concert at Carnegie Hall, New York to UCO, Schumacher has traveled a long road achieving awards, acclaims, and worldwide recognition in music. Schumacher recently released a CD performing the works of Schumann, a notable composer. "I love to travel. You meet a lot of different people from different cultures," she said. Ever since she was a child, Schumacher has always aspired to be a musician. She was inspired and influenced by three music teachers; Jacqueline Dupre, Lynn Harrell and Eleanor Schoenfeld, who themselves were acclaimed musicians. "I admired Eleanor Schoenfeld the most. Her whole

Schumacher has been touring five months out of a year, giving concerts and recitals from place to place. Although she plans to be at UCO for a while, Schumacher

hopes to go on tour to Germany, Holland, the Czech Republic and Singapore next year during summer break. Schumacher is currently trying to raise $5,000, to take her students on a musical tour by encouraging faculty members to donate. "If musicians just play they can really become self-centered and selfish. I have always felt like my students are my adopted family," she said. At UCO, Schumacher has formed a new chamber music group, where members of faculty perform together, and another group for student cellists. "The fun aspect of teaching is dealing with people. People are really friendly here. The teachers and students went out of their way to make me feel welcome," Schumacher said. Her life's ambitions are to learn how to fly, to visit Israel and Alaska, and to bring people together through her music. "I would like to continue to record, play, teach, and just keep going higher up. You learn a lot if you teach," she said.

Royal Crown's "Contender" takes early TKO

By Dustin Pyeatt St Wet

wing is in the air and this reviewer has unearthed a couple of gems for all you hep cats out there. First on stage is Royal Crown Review's latest "The Contender" (Warner Bros.). Royal Crown has a definite "goodfella" theme. The title track, free of innuendo, is actually about boxing! Eddie Nichols' vocals are on par with contemporary swingers, but it's his Joe

Pesci impersonations that put a twist on his sound. Guitarist James Achor has a Latin edge that is reminiscent of the "Desperado" soundtrack. Trumpet player Scott Steen stands out as well. Royal Crown's street wise, tough guy, lyrics provide the theme throughout most of the album, with songs like "Walkin' Like Brando," "Zip Gun Bop" and "Friday the 13th." The band shifts gears midstream and covers some older tunes like "Stormy Weather" and "Morning Light." Royal Crown wraps it up with an original ode to the great Bettie Page, with "Port-au-Prince." The downside of "The Contender" like most swing albums begins to sound like one long song. Swing is great for background music or even better to dance to, but for pure listening it should be taken in small doses to avoid burnout. The headlining act is a bit different. Squirrel Nut Zippers' "Perennial Favorites" (Mammoth Records) is not pure swing. The Zippers use their band's size and talent to unleash an arsenal of instruments that make "Favorites" much more than

Zippers' "Perennial Favorites" needs a wee bit of weeding On "Low Down Man," they shift gears just a swing album. For example, with "Suits Are Picking again. Katharine Whalens' vocals and Up The Bill," the Zippers give their take some steel guitar give this tune a on fame with a pure ragtime sound bluegrass flair. complete with banjo and violin. "The Kraken" sounds like Kate Capshaw's back-up band in "Temple of Doom", complete with firecracker sound effects and an Asian twist. The only drawback to "Perennial Favorites" is that the songs on the album, that could be considered swing, should have been left off. Songs like "Soon" and "Fat Cat Keeps Getting Fatter" lack that signature Zippers edge and could have been done by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy or the like and sounded just as good. Also worth mentioning is the Zippers' web site at www.snzippers.com/. This site not only has info about the band and links to related sites, but you can also purchase the band's used instruments along with the standard merchandise fare! Well guys and dolls, there's the skinny, so pop in one of these discs, slip on your khakis and dance the night away. And remember, it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing! "The Contender" B.

ASHINGTON (CPX) - Junkies who can't get enough of the Clinton-Lewinsky affair can find a quick-hit legal analysis of the saga's twists and turns on the Columbus School of Law's Web page. The school, based in Washington, D.C., provides web updates (www.law.edu ) courtesy of law Professor Clifford S. Fishman, a former prosecutor for the New York County District Attorney's Office. Fishman analyzes what he calls "a careful path between two federal perjury statutes" that Clinton's attorneys have chosen to help the President steer clear of charges that he lied under

oath. Fishman also explains the legal tangles tied to Linda Tripp's wiretapping, and he dissects the president's infamous Aug. 17 speech in which many said he never fully apologized for his actions. While Fishman's legal explanations may shed greater light on the finer points of law, he doesn't shy away from sharing his opinion of the President's behavior. "In sum Clinton has embarrassed himself, humiliated his family, disgraced his office and shamed his country," Fishman wrote. —By College Press Exchange

Fulbright student scholarships no longer beyond UCO grasp By Julie Jordan Staff

ave you ever dreamed of getting out of Oklahoma and seeing exotic countries? Well a Fulbright Scholarship may be the perfect chance to experience a different culture. The Fulbright program is designed to give post-graduate students an opportunity for graduate or research study abroad, in places such as Greece and Ireland. "We can't, in this day and age, live in isolation," said Dr. Siegfried Heit, associate professor of humanities and philosophy.

~piNOUC sr

cirER A

Theresa Little was the first student in the history of UCO to receive a Fulbright Scholarship, said Heit. Little left at the end of August for Nuremberg, Germany, and will teach English at a German high school. She is expected to return July 1999. "This is an opportunity to look at, live in and experience another culture," said Dr. Heit. Applicants must have a bachelor's degree or have one completed before the beginning date of the grant. They must also be fluent in the language of the country they will be living. The odds of getting a grant to English speaking countries, such as Canada and England, are much slimmer, Heit said.

Grants include round trip transportation, living expenses, and health insurance. There are 987 grants available for 1999-2000 competition, but over 4,000 applications are expected for those spots. The deadline for applications is Oct. 19. The Fulbright Program was created by Sen. J. William Fulbright, and signed into law by President Harry Truman in 1946. Fulbright created the program to encourage mutual understanding between leaders and future leaders of different cultures.

Texas and Amy Barber from Moore have stopped every shot at the goal from the last two teams. Hiller had 10 saves in St. Edward's loss. The two have stopped a total of 20 shots by opposing teams this season so far. "Our goal keepers have been doing great. We have been splitting the halves with them and it has worked out well, said coach Mike Cook. They are not the only freshmen standing out this season. In the first two games, all three goals were scored by freshmen. Christina Fulluo from Tulsa, scored the lone goal in the opening game for the Bronchos, while Jorgia McGinty from Arlington, Texas, and Angie Huyck from Midolothian, Texas, teamed up for the scores in the second game. With a new team comes a new coach . Mike Cook got the call to the UCO team in its inaugural season. Cook came to UCO from Southern Nazarene University, where he lead the men's and women's teams to a 144-66-1 record in five years. Cook also guided his Lady Redskins women's team to a pair of third place finishes in NAIA. Cook said, "Chemistry is the key; the girls are playing well together, but we are still looking for that stand out goal scorer. Our team is playing well and we are really starting to step it up." ■(
