Clinton speaks to UCO, friends By Gayleen Langthorn Staff Writer President Clinton said it was good to be back at UCO and added, "Most of the students were in grade school the last time I was here." He explained the importance of the Heartland scholarship committee meeting, the purpose of his visit to UCO. "It's a sad but ironically appropriate time...we just suffered a great loss," he said referring to the plane crash. involving Secretary of Commerce, Ron Brown,. He reminded the audience that those aboard the plane went to Bosnia with expectations of modest personal gains, but their work in Bosnia would have created jobs for Americans.
"Ron Brown never forgot where he came from," Clinton said. A year after the bombing, he said we all need to ask ourselves two questions. The first, "What is our responsibility?" He mentioned college educations for those who can't afford it and his proposal for tax deductions for families paying college tuition. "The world you live in offers more opportunities to succeed if you have a good education," he said. His goal is to have all schools connected to the Internet by the end of the decade. The second question was "Where do we go from here?" Clinton used this platform as a jump point to talk about the antiterrorism bill presently before
Congress. The proposal includes: • markers that go into explosives so they could be identified after an explosion, • explicit authority that prohibits terrorist groups from raising money and, • the best technology available for our law enforcement. Clinton said he believed that "we can do that without jeopardizing the civil liberties of Americans." He said the Oklahoma City bombing was an act of terror and terror can have two faces. The "homegrown" variety like the Unabomber or the poison gas bombs in the Japanese subway, and the imported terrorism like the World Trade Center VSee SPEECH, Page 3

Only the good die young...
D
eath is the Great Leveler, equal, never equivocal, fair, never facetious. We're not all born to greatness or wealth, but the common legacy we inherit is that of death and dying. There is nothing more certain, more feared or more sudden than seeing the handwriting of death on the wall, numbering your days. The loss of families, friends, and loved ones in last year's bombing, the loss of more than three dozen political and corporate leaders recently, the loss of the living from our midst daily — will we ever have a respite from the grieving and the pain? President Clinton's speech to UCO on Friday was a poignant eulogy to those who had laid their lives on the line and a memorial of those we lost in the line of duty, but more significantly, it was a love letter to life. He implored us, especially the youth, to go forward, to find within ourselves a well of strength in spite of the tragedy. For every death there is birth and rebirth. Sometimes people, like seeds, have to die in order to be born again. Terrorism may have snuffed out the lives of people we care about, but it will not discourage us from the act of living. If indeed death does enlighten, it is to remind us that life is transient, that nothing can be taken for granted, that there will always be a reason for living — and living well. 4

Student supports drama, open minds
I
n response to those letters that were in your last issue (March 28), I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and furthermore if we all agreed the world would be such a boring place. I think that we are all so very different in so many ways, whether it is the color of our skin, the religious or political beliefs we hold, or even our sexual orientation. But the definition of different is not bad, I know that it would be impossible for any heterosexual to understand how it "feels" to be gay, just as it would be impossible for a Caucasian to understand how it feels to be Afro-American, moreover, I don't think many of us expect you to understand. How could you, you are not gay. I think often times enough when we don't understand something maybe because it is different than the way we have been
raised, it scares us. Often when people don't know how to deal with something, they often label it, or condemn it as wrong. Part of our educational process is to open our minds to new things we have not encountered or learned about before. When I read the article about Angels in America, how the film depicted being a homosexual as depressing, undesirable and a hellish lifestyle, I thought the point she's been looking for is right in front of her face and she doesn't even realize it. Life is not always a rose garden, so sweetheart, take off those rosecolored glasses, it's real time. Being gay is hardly a highly desired lifestyle for we can not exactly go to the supermarket with our partner and be ourselves or be married, among so many other things. We are socialized from our formative years into adulthood to think that what we
are is wrong. and most of us spend the majority of our lives trying to be something that we are not. Tell one day in the autumn of our years, we find that we don't care about what "they" think and accept ourselves for who and what we are. However, along the way, there is so much anger and frustration because nobody understands. I think that the F word is a great way to express anger and frustration. I hardly think "darn" or "gosh golly" would express that frustration. It is really too bad that you missed it. How easy it is to pass judgment on something you just simply do not understand. Life is just too valuable to live in vain for there really are no dress rehearsals.

bombing. No one is immune to terrorism, he said. "We have to be more vigilant, active and determined than ever before." "We can't let terrorism pay," Clinton said, "we have to make sure terrorists pay for what they're doing." Clinton went on to say he was optimistic for America and proud of law enforcement. "We have caught and deported more terrorists in the last three years than in our history," he said. "We must take the strongest stand possible against terrorism. We have to take a stand and say it in the strongest possible language." Clinton cannot be in Oklahoma City April 19 because he will be attending the Russian Nuclear Summit to "make sure nuclear material is safe and can't be stolen." Clinton said, "We have reduced by two-thirds the number of nuclear weapons" and in two years, not a single nuclear weapon has been pointed at an American.

or fast relief from the nagging ache of taxes, we recommend TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs are tax-deferred annuities designed to help build additional assets—money that can help make the difference between living and living well after your working years are over. Contributions to your SRAs are deducted from your salary on a pretax basis. That lowers your current taxable income, so you start saving on federal and, in most cases, state and local income taxes right away. What's more, any earnings on your SRAs are also tax-deferred until you receive them as income. That can make a big difference in how painful your tax bill is every year.

As the nation's largest retirement system, based on assets under management, we offer a wide range of allocation choices — from the TIAA Traditional Annuity, which guarantees principal and interest (backed by the company's claims-paying ability), to TIAA-CREF's diversified variable annuity accounts. And our expenses are very low,* which means more of your money goes toward improving your future financial health. To find out more, call 1 800 842 2888. We'll send you a complete SRA information kit, plus a free slide calculator that shows you how much SRAs can lower your taxes. Call today—it couldn't hurt. -

Nigh headlines UCO blood drive By Lisa Tatum
Student Writer UCO President George Nigh is scheduled to be one of the first blood donors April 9 when campus organizers begin a two-day blood drive in the University Center Ballroom. The UCO Bloodhounds, a campus organization that works to promote university blood drives, sponsors four drives each year in coordination with the Oklahoma Blood Institute. The group's president, Chad Jackson said he hoped this drive will surpass the usual turnout of about 100 people. President Nigh said he
and his wife Donna have been regular donors for many years and he encourages all UCO family to be regular donors. Heidi Cohn, blood program consultant for the Oklahoma Blood Institute, said each donation helps three patients. "The whole blood that is donated is broken down into three components," said Cohn. "Only one of those components is usually needed by a patient." Blood donations will be accepted from 10 a.m.4 p.m. April 9-10. The entire process takes approximately 45 minutes.

elieve it or not, sex isn't the biggest problem concerning romantic relationships these days. At least that's what students of the UCO "Communications in
Relationships" class concluded. As a matter of fact, most concerns were really quite minor, said William Wardrope, assistant professor of communication. In a class that was supposed to be about relationships in general, Wardrope said conversations always seemed to come back to one thing: relationships between men and women. "The things that were discussed might surprise you, there really wasn't that much discussed about sex or money," said Wardrope. So if students weren't concerned about the two biggest reasons experts say are the causes for most divorces, just what were they concerned about?
"The women wanted to know why the men left the toilet seat up — if it was because they really didn't think about it, or because they were trying to drive them crazy?" said Wardrope. "And the men wanted to know why women always go to the ladies room in groups—are they talking about men in there?" The answers: Most of the men in the class said they actually don't think about the toilet seat one way or another, and yes, women are talking about men most of the time when they go to the ladies room in groups. Wardrope said both men and women in the class had the same ultimate goal — to understand each other. "I think a lot of the time the major problems that develop

between men and women are a result of miscommunication. "Society tends to blow things out of proportion a lot of times. That's why we hear things like `all men are pigs' when women are angry, and 'all women do is whine' when men are angry," said Wardrope. Most men and women are surprised at the similarities they have when they actually sit down and talk about it, said Wardrope. "Both men and women want love and respect; they just go about expressing it in different ways. "The notion that men don't want intimacy is not true. They just cannot always show it because society sees them a lesser man if they do," said Wardrope. Women are more observant of little things, while men look at the big picture. When this is understood in a relationship, both people can work toward a balance, said Wardrope. "Society has trained men to complete one task at a time, while women can do many things at one time," he said.
"That's why it drives a lot of men crazy when women have a conversation and skip from one thing to another, then go back to the original thing and somehow make it all tie together," he said. Wardrope said relationships have a lot to do with selfdisclosure. "A relationship is reciprocal. I'm only going to tell you so much about myself before you tell me about something about yourself," he said. "If the balance is tilted and I tell you too much, you get scared and back away. How much and how soon are two very important considerations when starting a relationship." What it all boils down to is going out of yourself to see the viewpoints of others."Try to see the world from the eyes of the other person and put yourself in their shoes." "Communication in Relationships" is offered every semester by the oral communication department. —By Jessica Halliburton Staff Writer

Track and field team sets school records in impressive showing By Richard Tortorelli Sports Writer Central Oklahoma track and field athletes Abel Kahuni and Chericka Bartells displayed their stamina, while Cathy Williams and Kate Samarija each set school records at the Central Oklahoma Relays held Stanley Ridley April 3-5 at UCO. Kahuni placed first in the men's 1,500-meter run, recording a time of 3-minutes, 56.72 seconds. He has taken first in the event in each of UCO's three outdoor meets this spring. UCO track coach Paul Parent said he was amazed at Kahuni, who also anchored the Bronchos' first-place efforts in the 1,600-m, 3,200-m and the distance medley relays. "Abel did something the other day that astounds me," said Parent. "He ran the anchor leg of the two-mile relay and had approximately an hour's rest. He came back and ran the 1,500 in a decent time, then six minutes later, he took the baton and anchored the distance medley and ran the 1,600, which is
almost a mile. Then 45 minutes later, he came back and ran the anchor leg of the mile relay. "He's a fantastic athlete. I've never seen anybody do what he did the other day. How many people can run a 1,500, (then) turn around and run another mile?" Bartells took first in the heptathlon while also placing in four other events. The junior from Miami, Okla. totaled 4,225 points in the heptathlon, nearly 1,000 more than the secondplace finisher. "The heptathlon is seven events, so Wednesday and Thursday she ran seven events. Friday she ran four more events, so in reality she ran eleven events," said Parent. "She's just tough, that's all you can say about the young lady." Williams shattered the meet and UCO women's shot put records, throwing a distance of 42 feet, three inches to win her second shot competition this spring. The junior from Crowley, Texas also placed third in the discus with a throw of 132-9 1/2. Samarija also set a school record in the women's 5,000 run. Her time of 19:51.66 beat the record she set last year by nearly two seconds, placing fifth in the event. Other first-place finishers for the UCO men included Chris Weilert in the javelin, Stanley Ridley in the 110-m high hurdles

Therapist, writer speaks on sex By Paul Eddy
Staff Writer UCO students will be given the opportunity to learn more about their sexuality, amongst other things, from Dr. Marty Klein, sex therapist and contributing writer for Playboy's Forum. Klein will be in town April 14-16 at the request of Dr. Lewis Irving, professor of sociology. Dr. Sunday evening will kick off events with "A Night for Singles" from 7:30-9:30 p.m. in the Pegasus Theatre. The program includes information on "Flirtation, Seduction, Attraction, Pressure
and Playing the Game So No One Loses." The cost is $10 for singles and $15 for couples. Monday, Klein will lead an all-day workshop in the Pegasus Theatre. The focus is on topics such as masturbation, sexual myths, how aging changes and doesn't change sex and role-playing. Registration fees are $35 before April 10, $40 after April 10 and $45 at the door. Tuesday will be the day for UCO Klein students as Klein begins at 10:40 a.m. in the Pegasus Theatre talking of "Sex, Love and Intimacy: one subject, two subjects or three." All Tuesday sessions are free to UCO students.
At 11:40 a.m., Klein will provide women with insights into men's sexuality. This discussion is for women only. The remainder of Klein's time will be spent in Irving's human sexuality classes from 1:40 -2:55 p.m. and 3:10-4:25 p.m. in Room 132 of the Liberal Arts Building. Irving extends an invitation to all students interested in attending. Klein is a very dynamic speaker who relates factual information and current data in ways that apply to everyday life, said Irving. In addition to contributing columns to Playboy, Klein has spent 15 years in private practice and has written two books on sexuality. Copies of Klein's books will be for sale and he will be on hand to sign them.
Bomb threat received after Clinton's visit
A
bomb threat on the University Center was phoned in to the UCO police at 7:54 p.m. April 6. The male caller said there was a bomb in the University Center set to go off because President Clinton had visited the campus, said Sgt. Jon Peoples of the UCO police. The Edmond Bomb Squad was dispatched and the building was evacuated.

Old North provides historic backdrop for speech By Mary Reinauer
Staff Writer For 104 changing years, Old North's clock has told UCO students the time. If that clock had eyes and a mouth, what tales she could tell. Perhaps one of her favorite stories would be of the day William Jefferson Clinton came to call. The transformation of a small town campus community to one that could give security adequate for the president of the United States would be the prelude to the story. For 30 hours before Clinton and his entourage moved in, UCO's grand old lady provided the backdrop for this transformation. The modestly regal russet bricks set the stage as UCO students and friends received Clinton's message of recovery during the ceremony April 5. Almost one year ago, the assumed security of the lives of her students exploded along with the Murrah Federal Building. Had they looked up as the shock waves reached the campus, they would have seen Old North's hands point to 9:02. As that anniversary neared, military vehicles began rolling in from sites in a 35-mile radius
around Edmond. By noon of April 4, they were parked in strategic formation to protect the president from danger. Fifty-two cargo trucks weighing from two and one half to five tons and six HUMMVs (High Utility Multipurpose Mobile Vehicle) were employed. Lt. Colonel Troy Hale of the Oklahoma National Guard said their mission was to provide both a "higher level of sight" from the street and "perimeter defense." "It's the same principle as circling the wagons in a wagon train," he said. By the time Old North read 2 o'clock that afternoon, a threestage blue and yellow tent spanned the path Clinton would take from the Education Building, where he would meet with the Heartland Scholarship Committee on Friday, to Old North. Old North endured holes drilled into her elderly bricks to secure the protective structure. Greg Robertson, president of Audio Associate, Inc. of Oklahoma City, was in charge of setting up the auxiliary lighting. A veteran of 64 or 65 such presidential events, Johnson said the White House typically paid the $12,000 to $15,000 tab for
the lights. Sixteen 1,000 watt bulbs were used to provide light for the side of Clinton's face not illuminated by the sun, he said. David Enterline, UCO general maintenance carpenter, said his crew was responsible for erecting a barrier of red and yellow rope and steel poles to keep Friday's crowd from getting too close to the podium. The area was about 200 square feet, he said. As Old North rang 10 bells April 4, the lights went out in the library as it shut down for the night. Old North could well use the opportunity to rest, for tomorrow would be a busy day. Temperatures in the 40s Friday morning seemed to heighten the bustle as darksuited Secret Service personnel wearing dark glasses and ear pieces gradually seemed to lose their novelty. The scent of 52 canvas cargo truck canopies had hung in the air long enough to become familiar as well. The truck-rimmed campus was relatively quiet until guests began to arrive around 1:30 p.m. Old North went about her business of keeping time, but on this day, her bells were silenced so as not to interfere with the presidential address. At 3:55 p.m., excitement was
on the faces of the cold crowd as the percolating sound of Marine I announced that the black and white chopper had begun its sentry duty. At 3:59 p.m., the presidential seal went up on the podium, flanked by five chairs on either side. Flower arrangements of purple and orange blossoms provided compensation for the lack of spring-like weather. At 4:12 p.m., UCO President George Nigh took the podium to welcome visiting dignitaries and give a thumbnail history of Old North. At 4:24 p.m., the UCO Jazz Band struck up "Hail to the Chief' as the 42th president of the United States faced the crowd. In his second Oklahoma appearance in slightly less than a year, he spoke of comfort, healing and hope for a future safe from terrorism. For just a while, the multinational, multicultural audience seemed to shed their diverse points of reference. The crowd, some 10,000 strong, seemed to contain not

Students, friends brave cold temps during speach By Gayleen Langthorn Staff Writer
Approximately 10,000 people braved temperatures in the 40s to hear President Bill Clinton speak at UCO Friday afternoon. Many waited three hours to see the president at his only public appearance in Oklahoma. Entertainment was provided by the UCO Jazz Band and Secret Service agents talking into their Dick Tracy style two-way wrist radios. The crowd grew restless as President Nigh came out to welcome the crowd and introduce the dignitaries in attendance, including: Republican Rep. Ernest Istook, State Senate Majority Leader Glenn Johnson and former Oklahoma Gov. David Walters. While waiting for President Clinton, Nigh commented facetiously that he was sorry Clinton couldn't have visited UCO when "we had the trenches and the mudholes students enjoyed so much." The President and Mrs. Clinton were greeted with enthusiastic applause as they emerged from Old North. Senator Johnson presented Clinton with a resolution expressing appreciation of the Clintons' support in the aftermath of the bombing. The resolution was unanimously approved by both the House and the Senate, he said. Clinton spoke for approximately 30 minutes to a responsive audience about education, terrorism and antidrug measures. At the end of the President's speech, before the crowd dispersed, a man began shouting, "Stop the killing of the unborn." Onlookers said Secret Service agents quickly appeared and the hecklers became silent. Walters commented on the speech saying the President had made a good transition from sympathizing to action by calling for passage of a meaningful antiterrorism bill. "The Republican congress has gutted this bill and they need to
pass a strong terrorism bill and all Oklahomans should support it," he said. Istook said the speeches Clinton had made earlier in the day were more powerful than the one he made at UCO, but "his comments were especially appropriate to emphasize our healing and be an affirmation to our faith." Keith Weber, a UCO student and member of Student Government Association, shook Clinton's hand and Clinton thanked Weber for coming to hear him. "It was a good speech— apropos to what we've been through and what we were remembering today as well as national issues that need to be addressed," Weber said. Dr. Sharon Carney, assistant professor of political science at UCO, also thought the speech Thousands of people gather in the parking lot west of the Education Building Friday to hear President Clinton speak. (Staff photo by Laurette Graham) was appropriate. "It's accurate to say that the terrorism bill is not political," she said. When the area the President had spoke from was opened to the public, Carney took the opportunity to sit in the same chair the President had occupied while on the podium. Chris Bruehl, president of the Residence Hall Association, also The Student Voice Since 1903 got to shake the President's hand and then waited near the Is Now Taking Applications Business Building to watch the for Summer and Fall 1996 President's motorcade pass. "He's very charismatic; he Paid Positions Available: looks you right in the eye when Faitor Managing Editor Reportc`rs Copy Editor he talks to you," Bruehi said.
