nterviews continue for the architects vying for the contract to design the UCO Wellness Center. Twenty-five architects bid for the project, said Keith Weber, research assistant to the president. The short list of bidders will be interviewed by the Board of Regents for Oklahoma Colleges. The Wellness Center is part of the UCO master plan, a plan for a series of projects the university will undertake in the future.

The budget for the center is approximately $9.2 million, Weber said. The project will be funded by a 20 year revenue bond issued by the state. The bonds will be partially paid with student facilities fees. "We asked students for support through a per student, per semester fee," Weber said. "Student organizations and student government gave approval for the fee." The fee started this fall. David Koehn, university controller, said the new fee is

fter a year of planning the Journalism Department is moving it's photography lab from the depths of the Communications Building's basement upstairs to Room 104. The construction of the new lab will cost approximately $127,000. The university allotted $100,000 for the construction. However, in the early stages

of the destruction of Room 104, asbestos was found in the ceiling and had to be removed. The extra $27,000 came from the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. A new lab location is needed for several reasons, said John Frair, photo journalism instructor. Reasons range from safety and space considerations to better accommodations.

eaching isn't just about lecturing and giving tests; it's also about being a mentor. Dr. James "Jim" Watson, graphics design instructor, received the UCO Phi Eta Sigma Freshman Honorary Society Outstanding Mentor Award. Watson was nominated by Abdullah Syed, a graphics design graduate student, last spring who submitted an essay. "I knew I had been nominated, but I had actually forgotten about it until the faculty meeting last Wednesday," Watson said. Watson said he felt proud and honored to be recognized as a mentor. "I feel almost embarrassed. There are so many good mentors on campus, it's a shame we all couldn't win." Syed nominated Watson because of his appreciation for

the professor. "It's hard for me to express myself, words are the best way. So when I saw the essay contest, I knew what I had to do." Syed said According to the international student from Pakistan, Watson is strait forward, open-minded, and never angry. "He reminds of that face you see. He's always smiling," Syed said. A smiling face is only part of Watson's colorful personality. His office is painted bright yellow and the laid-back professor talks on a Mickey Mouse phone. Watson's own mentor was his fraternity chapter advisor who died of cancer. "He taught me how to drop everything that you're doing to help a person." The award was started by Dr. Robert Epstein, UCO associate Professor of general business, in honor of his mentor, Professor Herbert S. Dordick,

who died of cancer in 1998. Epstein met Dordick over twenty years ago as a graduate student. "As a professor and teacher, he was extremely helpful," said Epstein. "He helped me define myself, obtain job opportunities, and was there for me during my career changes." The money for this years award came from four different sources. Two years ago, Epstein received the Presidential Award of Professors. The money from that award went into the mentor award fund. AMBUCS, Phi Eta Sigma Freshman Honor Society, and the UCO foundation also contributed to the award. Dr. Webb made a comment at the faculty meeting Watson thought was true and important. " 'We need more mentor roles to counsel and guide the students. The education interaction between the teacher and the student is valid.' " <

600 Tibetans boost economy By Matt Hendrix

College Press Writer Ind. -- For 11 days, more than 600 Tibetans and thousands of other Buddhists made Bloomington, Ind., their home. This boosts the local economy by an estimated $8 million to $10 million dollars. The Dalai Lama of Tibet looked favorably on the performance of sacred Kalachakra ceremonies, expressing appreciation for all who organized and attended the revered Buddhist ritual. "I am very impressed," the Dalai Lama said. "Whenever I give some Buddhist teaching in the West, I'm a little hesitant. But many Westerners who participated here showed a genuine interest." The spiritual leader's teachings concluded last week with a blessing wishing a long life of empowerment to participants. It was the final event of a ritual intended to inspire spiritual growth through fundamental Buddhist ideas. "There are signs of feelings of frustration about a materialistic way of life," the Dalai Lama said. "People are beginning to feel something lacking." Thubten Norbu, an associate professor emeritus of Uralic and

Altaic Studies and elder brother of the Dalai Lama, said he recognized the need for such teachings in what he called America's troubled society. "The acceleration of violence in our cities and in our schools is echoed endlessly in our mass media,while the rise of materialism jeopardizes. age-old family values," Norbu said. "Fortunately, we can find solace and healing and transformation through the ministrations of compassion and wisdom." Approximately 5,000 people attended Kalachakra each day, boosting the local economy and generating enough money to cover the $1.38 million associated with the event. Organizers said any profit made from the event would be given to Tibetan causes. When questioned about the promise of a future Kalachakra in Tibet, the homeland he was exiled from by Chinese communists, the Dalai Lama mentioned two Kalachakras he'd performed in Tibet prior to his exile. Many Tibetan monasteries have asked him to deliver the Kalachakra in the last 40 years, he said, but such an occurrence would not be possible until the situations regarding Chinese control of Tibet change.

Illinois fraternity diciplined for hazing By Angie Zigrossi

StalfWriter DEKALB, Ill. (TMS) — The Omega Psi Phi fraternity has run into a string of troubles because of student hazing on different campuses. Officials at Northern Illinois University have suspended the campus' chapter in light of a former pledge's allegations that members beat him on several occasions. Because of the accusation, the fraternity's charter also has been revoked by its national organization. The organization has been punished for hazing in other states, too. On Aug. 13, a Kentucky judge ordered the national fraternity to pay nearly $1 million in damages to the University of Louisville for its involvement in student hazing. The pledge and his mother took the allegations of hazing to

university officials in early August. According to reports filed with the school, the pledge said he had been beaten four days a week between January and April, said Rick Clark, director of university programming and activities. Fraternity members were aware of the beatings but said nothing about them. "We have reason to believe that they all didn't do it, but just standing around is a violation in itself," said Bertrand Simpson, associate director of university programming and activities. School officials said the outcome of internal investigations could result in a 15-20-year suspension for the fraternity chapter. Simpson said he didn't know whether a suspension would be indefinite, but he did think any suspension would be no less than a semester.

HIDEAWAY PIZZA,

Because alleged hazing took place off the NIU campus, DeKalb police are conducting their own investigation. So far, no charges have been filed. "We want to reach the point where they're gone long enough to have the bad element go away and the bad history forgotten, so they can start fresh," he said. The NIU chapter of Omega Psi Phi was expelled for 10 years in 1980 after members were found guilty of hazing. That university officials said put some students in the hospital with severe bruises, internal bleeding, broken bones and burns. As recently as Aug. 13, the national organization found itself in trouble with the University of Louisville, where pledges were forced to eat dog food and stay up all night running around a track and carrying bricks, according to The Chronicle of Higher Education.

Jobe awarded FBI internship at Quantico, Virginia By Ercilia Zolkiewicz

M

any students spend their summer months cooling off at the pool. Jarrett Jobe spent his summer with the FBI. Jobe learned about the opportunity for an FBI internship through UCO's chemistry department, but making the cut didn't come easy for the UCO senior. Competition for the 123 internships was intense. The FBI received approximately 5,000 applications. In addition to submitting his application, Jobe, who is also the UCO student association president, had to submit four letters of recommendation. After an extensive eight month background check, Jobe was notified on May 3, that he had been selected to work at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. Jobe was one of only three Oklahomans chosen. Jobe worked with two research instructors in the

FBI's behavioral sciences unit whose students were future FBI special agents. Jobe's chemistry education at UCO gave him a firm ground from which to reference. "I did research with hate crime homicides and violence against law enforcement," Jobe said. While assisting with FBI research, Jobe worked with privileged information. "I had top secret clearance while I was there." The FBI internship provided Jobe with a diverse activity schedule of 40 to 55 hour work weeks w h i .c h included assisting the instructors and firearms training. "I got to do a half day of firearms

training with a .357-caliber Magnum, the Glock 17, and the MP5 submachine gun," Jobe said. As a forensic sciences major, Jobe had special interest in the FBI internship. "I plan to become a special agent," Jobe said. The summer internship may assist Jobe in his future endeavors. Jobe said the FBI has received 97,000 applications in the past four years and has hired only 4,500. "The main thing is that it's

so competitive that anything that sets your application apart will help. They're (the FBI) looking for good people who are motivated to work," Jobe said. Jobe discovered some similarities shared among many of the FBI agents. "I am considering going into the military because alot of the male special agents have prior military or law enforcement background, mostly Marines," Jobe said. Upon completion of his bachelor's degree, the Marines may not be I did research with the only path Jobe hate crime homicides considers. and violence against "With t h e law enforcement. master's program (in forensic —Jarrett Jobe sciences) being approved „

here, that opens another door," Jobe said. Regardless of which path he walks, Jobe has made the decision that working for the FBI is his goal. Jobe said that the FBI internship disproved all his stereotypes of the FBI work atmosphere. "I was surprised how friendly the people there were. They treated you like a coworker instead of an intern," he said. The UCOSA president described his wait to find out if he would be selected last semester as very long and very stressful. However, the opportunity was in Jobe's words, "The best experience in my academic career that I could have ever had." UCO's Chemistry Club and Forensic Sciences Club will be hosting a presentation given by Jobe on Friday, September 3. For more information, call 974-5018.

State Housing Commission suspends Michigan State fraternity EAST LANSING, Mich. — embers of Michigan State University's chapter of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity don't necessarily know whether they're coming or going these days. City officials slapped the fraternity with a 180-day suspension of its housing license on Aug. 19 -- a cold welcome to fraternity members who were moving back to the house this week. The suspension has left members trying to find housing elsewhere. The fraternity is appealing the decision of the East Lansing Commission on Housing, which unanimously decided to expel the organization for April violations of the city's housing code. The code restricted the group from having alcohol or parties on its premises and from receiving tickets for noise violations. The prohibitions were

M

enacted after the fraternity violated previous conditions. City officials say the most recent city sanctions are essentially the result of the fraternity's irresponsibility and inability to abide by rules. "They had gotten more than three strikes," city housing commissioner Bill RamierzRoberts told The State News. "It wasn't like they just got a noise violation. There had been a lot of other violations. Bob Baldori, the fraternity's attorney, said the fraternity would appeal the commission's ruling. "A guy was playing his stereo loud one night," Baldori told the State News. "To suspend the license of a fraternity that has been a solid member of the community almost as long as the university over an allegation like that is an extreme overreaction. It's hysteria."

This inconsistency is disturbing because the mysterious married woman was the whole reason Fadlan was banished in the first place. But the main problem is the lack of a final climactic scence. There is a series of three or four action scenes, but no finale to wrap it up. As Fadlan sails off into the sunset, the audience is left to wonder: is the movie over? is he traveling back to the woman he loves?

Columnist's daughter gets inspection tag jitters Professor By Celle Rabalais

Stafrafriter My daughter had to get her first car inspection sticker recently. She was extremely nervous about the procedure; worried about failing the inspection and having an expired tag. After bathing, shampooing her hair, and putting on her make-up, she was ready to undergo the dreaded task of swishing the windshield wipers, blinking the lights, honking the horn, and applying her foot to the brake pedal for the $5 inspection tag. We drove to the inspection site and pulled in. "I need an inspection sticker," my daughter told the station attendant, her voice quivering. "No problem," he replied. "I need your driver's license and insurance card." She handed him both and he went inside for the paper work. "I hope my car passes. I'm not driving an illegal car," she told me. "Don't worry. Everything on your car works perfectly," I assured her.

convicted of Dow art theft CHICAGO (TMS) -A former administrator at the University of California at Los Angeles has been convicted of stealing a valuable 19th-century painting from the school. A federal court on Aug. 20 convicted Jane Crawford, UCLA's director of counseling until April 15, on two counts of wire fraud and two counts of interstate transportation of fraudulently obtained cashier's checks. According to a statement released by the U.S. Attorney for the Central District Court of California, Crawford stole the oil painting by American Impressionist Arthur Wesley Dow in 1994. She then sold the work, titled "Frost Flowers, Ipswich 1889," through a third party to the Ira Spanierman Gallery in New York for $200,000. Prosecutors said the money was deposited into an account that Crawford shared with an accomplice who has since died. Crawford is scheduled to be sentenced Nov. 8. She could faces up to 30 years in prison.

Getting an assist...

SportsEditor Senior volleyball player Adriana Crovador keeps moving up on the career digs list in the UCO record books. Going into the season, Crovador was placed fifth alltime at UCO in career digs, but needed just four games to overtake Stacey Shwartz for fourth place. UCO's career leader in digs is Amy Parten who had 1,491 digs, just 285 ahead of Crovador. Crovador has been a first-team Lone Star Conference pick the last two-seasons for the Bronchos and should be in contention for NCAA Division II All-America honors this season. Crovador came to UCO from Jenks High School where she was an All-State pick as a senior, while adding her name to five all-tournament teams.

UCO Junior setter Jennifer Seinmetz sets up senior Rochelle Frey during the Sleep Inn Invitational. The UCO volleyball team lost their first three games of the tournament. Adams State defeated UCO , 31, Nebraska-Kearney beat UCO 3-1 and Fort Hays State beat the Bronchos 3-0. UCO did manage to defeat Texas A&MKingsville 3-1.

Relationships prosper over long distance The University of Central Oklahoma's Department of Public Safety logged the following incidents.

August 18th.

any students say maintaining a long distance relationship during the first year of college is akin to winning some sort of national championship. While thoughts of abandoning a beloved high school sweetheart may be unthinkable, first year students almost always encounter tests of their devotion. "(College) is one big playground for single guys and girls," said Jenny Baggett, a senior at Florida State University. "Everyone here operates under the assumption that the people they meet here are unattached, and for the most part, they are right." In the comfortable surroundings of home, promises to be faithful can be sincere and made with the best of intentions. Couples who make the commitment to stay together

essentially pledge to brave lonely nights, massive phone bills and missed dating opportunities for their long-distance love to survive. "My first time cruising ... with my new girlfriends was a harsh wake-up call," said Christina Clausen, a junior at the University of Central Florida. "I met so many hot-looking guys, and knew that I couldn't even give out my number." "My friends all ended up hooking-up," she added. "And I got to go home and talk to my boyfriend's answering machine." Some couples who commit to holding together their longdistance relationship say the separation isn't all bad. Many cite the benefits of exploring new interests on their own and of having a chance to step back from a relationship to assess it more objectively. "Sometimes being apart can be a really healthy thing," said Alicia Robinson, a grad student at Florida A&M University. "You are able to determine whether you really care for your

boyfriend (or girlfriend) and if you feel you can trust him (or her) to be faithful." Students also say distance from a partner helps them because it often turns up one destructive red flag in a relationship that may not have been detected as easily otherwise: jealousy. "Jealous feelings always exist, no matter how much you try to ignore them," said FSU senior Stephanie Daly. "Even when you have a good relationship, there is a temptation to imagine the worst...you're not around to watch for the telltale signs that a boyfriend or girlfriend is being unfaithful." Given the pros and cons, are long distance relationship really worth all the energy and effort? "Well...that depends on the people involved," said Maureen Carrol, a sophomore at the University of South Florida. "If you are going be in a relationship, especially longdistance, you have to give it your all. No one likes to be the backup plan."

O

n a recent Sunday afternoon an Oklahoma woman became another victim of road rage. What was once considered an isolated event is becoming increasingly common on the streets of America. And though police have attempted to curb the problem, it continues to plague drivers everywhere. Like most acts of violence, road rage stems from ignorance and stupidity. People guilty of the crime typically relish the idea of having their car ahead of all others or they are in a hurry to get somewhere. In their haste, people forget that their careless actions may bring harm to others.And anyone who dares to get in their way often is subjected to sugjestive hand gestures, honking and being run off the road. This often results in The solution to this malady is the responsibility, not of the police or the law makers, but of the public. Anyone who owns a vehicle must make a conscious effort to suppress their desire to flog the person who cut them off in traffic. If not, the senseless deaths wil continue. <

Dorm dweller airs frustration over Murdaugh Hall To whom it may concern: am writing in response to the article in your August 26 issue concerning the air-conditioning in Murdaugh Hall. The students of Murdaugh Hall did request a full refund

I

for their summer housing and were offered a $50 refund instead. One hour before the protest was scheduled to occur, there was a private meeting with a few Administrative Representatives, none of whom

was Bill Wiseman. In the aforementioned meeting several compensation issues were discussed and nothing resolved, due to the time constraints. It became apparent to all students involved that what was already offered ($50 dollars

summer credit, a fan in every room, $100 off/ semester for future residents and the administration's promise not to advertise Murdaugh Hall as an air-conditioned dormitory) was all that would be offered. As far as the administration

not responding to protests, none of the drastic changes in the temperature of the building occurred until the 10 p.m. news.

R.J. Preston Junior Criminal Justice Major

Lawsuit filed by The Pitt News; still unable to advertise alcohol

D

espite a lawsuit filed by The Pitt News, the University of Pittsburgh's student newspaper, alcohol is still prohibited from being advertised in (PA.) college newspapers. Act 199, which prohibits bars and restaurants from advertising alcohol in campus publications, went into effect near the end of 1996 in an attempt by the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board to combat alcohol abuse. In an attempt to justify the law, legislators cite the 1997 death of IUP student Lorraine Hanna, the alcohol-induced riots at Penn State last summer and this past spring's death of a 26-year-old University of Pennsylvania alumnus at a

fraternity party. Alcohol misuse and abuse is a problem on college campuses across the state and the country, but restricting advertisements in college publications isn't the answer. Not only were these two deaths the result of alcohol supplied at a party and not at a bar, but they are being used to justify the law, despite the fact that they all occurred after the law went into effect. Those students weren't reading about alcohol specials in college newspapers, they were influenced about them from somewhere else. This raises another issue about the ban. While it prohibits ads in college newspapers, other newspapers,

like The Indiana Gazette, can run as many ads as they can sell. Students can buy the paper on campus, and some professors even require it or other papers as reading material for class. Anyone watching TV in the residence halls or HUB will also be exposed to alcohol ads. So why can other media outlets and other newspapers, which are readily available to students on campus, expose students to alcohol specials if college newspapers can't? The answer to that question, according to what State Sen. Melissa Hart, R-McCandless, told the Post-Gazette, is that student newspapers aren't "real" newspapers. "Talk about free speech issues with the real

press, this isn't the real press," she told the Post-Gazette. So while the law implies that campus newspapers have more influence on students than other forms of media, we're not even considered to be "real" newspapers. While some things may be slightly different, like in the real world people give two weeks notice before quitting, student newspapers at public universities are "real" newspapers. But just like "real" newspapers, we count on advertising for revenue. So while the ban hasn't succeeded at preventing people from abusing alcohol, it has succeeded in drastically hurting the financial status of college papers across the state.

The Pitt News reported it

cost them $20,000, and The Penn's revenue dropped about $18,000. In the 1973 court case of Joyner v. Whittig, the federal Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that, "Censorship of constitutionally-protected expression cannot be imposed at a college or university by ... withdrawing financial support, or asserting any other form of censorship oversight based on an institution's power of the purse." Courts have followed this ruling to prohibit colleges from censoring papers by cutting funds. It seems like the state needs to be reminded it doesn't have that power either.
