Duelling rallies combat bills

Rhode Island GOP condemns whitesonly scholarship The state Republican Party chairwoman said a new whites-only scholarship at Roger Williams University is disturbing and "does not move us forward in a reasonable debate over the issues." Patricia Morgan made her remarks after learning that the university's College Republicans were offering a $250 scholarship that is only open to applicants who are white. The group created the scholarship as a statement against affirmative action. Morgan said a debate over affirmative action is valid, but the student group's tactics have "racist overtones." "We have a zero tolerance for racism in the Republican Party," she said. "I'm really appalled by the way they brought this up." The application for the award requires an essay on why you are proud of your white heritage" and a recent picture to "confirm whiteness." "

Prevalence of rape higher in heavy drinking environments BOSTON—(COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE) Rape is more common on college campuses with higher rates of binge drinking - and alcohol use is a central factor in most college rapes, finds a new study released Feb. 12. Overall, one in 20 (4.7 percent) women reported being raped in college since the beginning of the school year - a period of approximately 7 months - and nearly three :quarters of those rapes (72 percent) happened when the victims were so intoxicated they were unable to consent or refuse. These were among the findings of a study of 119 schools nationwide, by researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health College Alcohol Study, Saint Joseph's University and the University of Arizona, published in the January 2004 issue of the Journal of Studies on Alcohol. Most significantly, women from colleges with medium and high binge-drinking rates had more than a 1.5-fold increased chance of being raped while intoxicated than those from schools with low binge- drinking rates. Other significant risk factors for rape were being under 21 years old, white,

residing in sorority houses, using illicit drugs and binge drinking in high school. "This study reveals that a woman's chance of being raped is far more pronounced on campuses where the student body as a whole engages in a high rate of binge drinking and when individuals consume a large amount of alcohol," said Meichun Mohler-Kuo, Sc.D., lead author of the study and research scientist at the College Alcohol Studies at Harvard School of Public Health. Heavy episodic drinking (or binge drinking) is the number one public health problem among college students - associated with a range of consequences that include lower grades, vandalism and physical and sexual violence. Indeed, frequent and even occasional binge drinkers were more likely to have been raped while intoxicated, the study found. In addition, this is the first study to compare the incidence of rape among intoxicated women on campuses with heavy drinking versus lower binge-drinking rates. "This study points to an urgent need for more alcohol prevention programs on campuses, along with sexual assault education," said Mary P. Koss,

Ph.D., professor of public health at the University of Arizona and a co-author of the study. "Men need education about what constitutes rape, and women should be better informed of strategies to avoid risky situations. Previous research shows that more women get raped while under the influence of alcohol than under the influence of any other so-called 'date rape' drug, such as GHB and Rohypnol." According to Henry Wechsler, Ph.D., a co-author of the study and director of the College Alcohol Studies at Harvard School of Public Health, "The findings that some campus environments are associated with higher levels of both drinking and rape can help encourage and better target alcohol and rape prevention programs at colleges." "Binge drinking isn't a harmless rite of passage but a risk factor in violenceagainst women," said George W. Dowdall, Ph.D., a co-author of the study and professor of sociology at Saint Joseph's University. "Institutions of higher education need to change the culture of college drinking in order to makecolleges safer and healthier environments."

Supporters of the newly proposed federal Defense of Marriage Act rallied to support a similar state resolution Feb. 17 at the State Capitol while opponents of the legislation protested nearby. Represenatives Thad Balkman and Lance Cargill organized the `Protect Marriage' Rally on the south steps of the capitol. "We are here to rally for what I think is the most important issue facing the state of Oklahoma, that is defending and defining what marriage is," Balkman said. Balkman is co-author of House Bill 1027, which calls on Congress to pass a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, and co-author of House Resolution 1028, which asks Congress to define marriage as a union between one man and one woman. "We don't seek to deny any fundamental rights from anybody but we demand that government

perserve and protect marriage." The crowd chanted "one man, one woman" and waved "one man + one woman = marriage" signs. "We are here to support what we believe is right and to help the numbers," said Stephanie Ziegler, a supporter of the bills. Karen Weldin, a member of Soul Force in Oklahoma was a part of the crowd for different reasons. "Our whole country's at stake here. They want a theocracy. They don't want any minority religion," Weldin said. The state legislature's House session began at 1:30 p.m., immediately after the rally, a departure from their usual 9 a.m. start time. "We have to protect people who love one another — it's wrong and mean-spirited to use peoples' relationships as a political ploy," Weldin said. "They are bringing their religion into their politics, and threatening a democracy. You

uote of the day

Gov. HENR Y, ARE

From this day forward, I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death. . . . I feel morally and intellectually obligated simply to concede that the death penalty experiment has failed. It is virtually self-evident to me now that no combination of procedural rules or substantive regulations ever can save the death penalty from its inherent constitutional deficiencies. -Former US Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun

Rights should be equal for everyone Cartoon by Eric Osbom

Death sentence should be commuted for inmate In 1995, Hung Thanh Le was convicted of murder and sentenced to death. In December 2003, the Pardon and Parole Board recommended unanimously to Governor Henrythat Le be granted clemency and given life in prison, based on impropritey by the prosecutor and investigators in his case. Here is what Amnesty International says about Le, "Hung Thanh Le was sentenced to death in Oklahoma County in 1995 for the murder of Hai Hong Nguyen in 1992. Hai Hong Nguyen and Hung Thanh Le fled their native Viet Nam and met in 1985 in a refugee camp in Thailand before settling in the USA.. "At a US capital sentencing hearing, the prosecution argues for execution and the defence can present any mitigating evidence in support of leniency. Hung Thanh Le's relatives testified about his good character, and three jail guards testified about his model conduct in the local jail. The trial was riddled with prosecutorial misconduct. The prosecution made inflammatory remarks, mis-stated the law as it related to mitigating evidence, referred to facts that were not in evidence and repeatedly dehumanized the defendant in arguing

for execution. Oklahoma County prosecutors have repeatedly been criticized by the appeal courts. In Hung Thanh Le's case, a federal judge wrote in 2002 that 'at some point the repeated violation of ethical responsibility threatens the violation of our justice system'. Despite finding that the prosecution's arguments were 'improper' and 'irrelevant', the appeal courts have allowed Hung Thanh Le's death sentence to stand. It is left to the clemency authorities to provide a remedy." Regardless of your personal feelings about the death penalty, this is an issue every American citizen needs to involve themselves in. This man, a foreign national, was denied due process, both as it is defined under U.S. law and international treaty. Write a letter, send a fax, or call Gov. Henry. Urge him to prove that Oklahomans are humanitarian and respect the rule of law, as well as international treaties our country has signed.

But stick to stilettos if you're buying heels. The chunky-funky square-heeled crap has to go. You are not a Spice Girl or a Brat doll. Do not wear their shoes. For accessories, the Limited is your purse destination with this season's hottest creation, the jelly purse. Coming in white, pink, baby blue, and cranberry, there is one to not only fit your personality, but one to combine with any wardrobe. Need a lower price; the Vanity has some great and cheaper alternatives. Now you can finally throw out that Scarlet Letter-inspire initial bag that has been done to death. So there you have it.

friends but that he still supported any laws to deny heterosexual couples the more than 1,400 legal benefits of marriage. A few of those benefits are the rights to joint parenting, • joint adoption, joint insurance policies and automatic inheritance in the absence of a will. Without these protections, straight couples face many more legal and financial difficulties than homosexual couples when planning their lives. Sally, a heterosexual protester, said she hopes to gain marriage benefits to ensure that her male partner and their naturally conceived son will be financially secure if she dies. Jon, another straight, said he wants to legitimize the ten-year monogamous relationship he and his female partner Julia have enjoyed. Lane Brickman, a spokesperson for straight rights, said that, no matter what the legislature decides, he will still wake up tomorrow and be straight. Sound familiar? Think I'm crazy? Does telling two committed lovers that they can't get married, due to someone else's morals, sound crazy? Some interesting facts: 1) not until 1967 did the U.S. Supreme Court rule anti-miscegenation (interracial marriage) laws unconstitutional; 2) Alabama voters waited until November 2000 to repeal their racist marriage law. Do you like being told how to live your life?

Abercrombie wearing high schoolers we used to be. Third, simply, if you are of the more fair skin color, after 20 minutes, get out of the tanning bed. And try not to go more than three times a week. You're not tanning, you're oranging. If you don't understand what's being said, find Rafiki Carter. She'll either be on campus or at Penn Square's Limited store. She is Oklahoma's shining example of class, style, beauty, and confidence. She models her style after her fashion icon, Jennifer Lopez (good move, Sweetheart). Her outfits are cutting edge, sexy, business applicable, and most importantly, her outfits reflect her sense of self. She does not follow trends. She makes them. She is fashion religion. Finally, if you're too weirded out to do that and still can't figure out where to go now, here are some alternatives. For pants, Express is your destination. With the world's most "perfect fitting pants," the Editor, and, in this writer's opinion, the world's most perfect fitting jeans, the Cetine, Express is slamming all of the myths that one cannot find pants that fit. For shirts, you can stay at Express, or head down to the Limited (again, ask for Rafiki). They have brought out late winter's cutest top, the DoubleV. In a wide assortment of colors, the lacey and funky DoubleV can be

At the Capitol yesterday, over 1,000 people rallied in support of recently proposed legislation that would ban opposite-sex marriage. Several legislators gave speeches in strong support of the codification of marriage as between one man and one man or between one woman and one woman. Recent lawsuits in other states by heterosexual couples demanding their right to many have ignited national debate about the future of marriage and traditional morality. Opponents of straight marriage say it is against their religion, but religious leaden' opinions vary. While most agree that marriage is a sacred institution not permitted to oppositesex couples, a few openly accept it and even perform traditional ceremonies for straights. A small coalition believes that heterosexual behavior should be punishable by the death penalty. However, many people from diverse backgrounds believe that the religion of the homosexual majority should not determine the rights of the heterosexual minority-around three percent of the population. To protest the rally, a small group of straights and their supporters gathered a block from the Capitol and held up signs reading, "Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve." One pro-discrimination legislator admitted that he had some straight

Late winter fashion is in full bloom right now. Spring is just around the corner, but the typical Oklahoma weather isn't always a reflection of that. However, judging by some of the clothes finding their way onto UCO students' bodies, one would never guess that the temperature is hovering anywhere around the 35-50 degree mark. Someone needs to say it. Everyone's talking about it in large agreement, but apparently no one is telling the people they need to be telling. UCO ladies, if you believe this article applies to you, please take heed. First, there is a difference between fitted and tight. Read carefully. Fitted applies to clothing that flatters your figure, accentuates your good points, and helps make you look ten times better than you actually do. Tight lets anyone map the entity that is your body. Flaws and all. Tight is not cute, sexy, or visually appealing. It's gross. Second, just stop it with the snow caps, scarves, hooded sweatshirts, skirts that let all your junk hang out the bottom, and snow boots or flip flops (whichever you prefer) thrown together to make an outfit. You look ridiculous and everyone thinks so, including your boyfriend, who apparently doesn't have the nuts to say so. Grow up. We're not the

A group of Central students attended the protest, led by several members of the Gay Alliance for Tolerance and Equality. "At the end of the day people are people, and everyone deserves equal rights," said Stephen Horn, G.A.T.E. member. Other speakers at the rally were U.S. Reps. John Sullivan and Ernest Istook, co-sponsors in Washington, D.C., of the Federal Marriage Amendment; Eusebius Beltran, Archbishop of Oklahoma City; and representatives of the Baptist General Convention and Oklahoma Assemblies of God. The rally's masters of ceremonies were radio personalities Cam Edwards and Michael Del Giorno. "We have to be out here to protect the constitution of the state of Oklahoma to protect the constitution and the first amendment for the United States of America," Weldin said. Despite the objectors and to the delight of supporters, the State House of Representatives passed HR 1028 by voice vote.

UCO starts with sweep by Micah D. Gamino Sports Writer Three Central Oklahoma pitchers dominated as the Bronchos steamrolled over Langston in a pair of season opening victories Tuesday afternoon at Legends Sports Complex. Falon Barnes, Jordan Akin, and Jamie Schiedt racked up a combined 24 stikeouts while giving up only one run in the doubleheader sweep. The offense did their part as well adding 29 total hits in rolling to 20-0 and 11-0 run-rule thrashings.

Courtney Cole, who had five hits on the day, hit a lead off homerun to start the season off right for a team looking to improve from last year's thirdplace finish in the Lone Star Conference North Division. Cole, Lindsey Tripp and Jodi Craig , each had three hits in leading a 17-hit Central offensive attack that saw eight runs cross the plate in the second inning alone. Newcomer Stacy Walden flashed some early potential with a two-run double to add to the lead in the first game while taking advantage of some LU errors.

The 10-run rule quickly took effect (minimum five innings of play) after Craig added a homerun in the third and Tripp a twoRBI single in the fourth. Lauren Moore led the offense in the second game going 3-for3 with a single, double and a triple in a 12-hit performance by the Bronchos. Moore, Craig, Cole and Nikki Vandever each had runscoring hits as Central scored four in the first to take control early leading to another easy run-rule victory. The Central softball team will not see action again until Feb. 24 at Hillsdale Baptist.

Emporia snaps Bronchos' early winning streak \by Micah D. Gamino Sports Writer Emporia State defeated Central Oklahoma 7-1 on Feb. 17 in Edmond for the Bronchos second straight loss after opening the 2004 season with three lopsided wins. Starting pitcher Kyle Nevels picked up the loss for the Bronchos after giving up a tworun home run in the sixth to put the Hornets in the lead 3-1. Layle DeVilbiss was brought in to relieve Nevels for the last out of the sixth. Devilbiss then walked three to load the bases in the seventh. A wild pitch with only one out caused a run to score giving the Hornets a 4-1 lead.

Sopho-more Chad Ashley took over from there to get the Broncos out of the inning but not before giving up a three-run home run to ESU's Jared Myers on Ashley's first pitch. Chad Ashley survived the rest of the seventh and hung on until his brother Ryan Ashley finished out strong in the ninth. "We're not hitting the ball real well right now," said Central head coach Wendell Simmons. "We're struggling mentally cause we had one bad game. We need to relax and just let things happen." Central's offense began the season strong with three 11-run games defeating Science and Arts of Oklahoma 11-0 on Feb. 11, Arkansas Tech 11-5 on Feb. 13, and Central Arkansas 11-7 on

Feb. 14 before being shutout 3-0 by ATU on Feb. 15. The Bronchos averaged 15 hits through the first three games before ATU pitcher Teddy Williams gave up just four hits through nine innings to pick up the shutout for the Wonder Boys. Nevels and Jake Mays swept Lone Star Conference Player of the Week honors announced Tuesday by the league office. Mays was named Lone Star Conference Hitter of the Week after batting .588, going 10 for 17, through the first four games. Mays scored five runs with a home run and four RBIs in those games. Nevels took LSC Pitcher of the Week honors for his efforts in the Bronchos first game with USA() Feb. 11 on Broncho Field.
