UCOSA reviews new alcohol resolution

resolution currently under review by the UCO Student Association (UCOSA) provides the framework for a policy which could allow alcoholic beverages to be served on campus.

However, the resolution must first be approved

by President Webb, the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, UCOSA and UCO students.

Nicholas Harrison, president pro tempore of UCOSA co-authored the resolution.

After the initial interview, repeated attempts were made to contact Harrison regarding the resolution; all were unsuccessful.

Because of Regents guidelines regarding alcohol consumption and distribution, UCO currently cannot serve alcoholic beverages, even to organizations not affiliated with the university.

UCO's contracted catering service, Chartwell's Campus Dining Service, has lost numerous catering accounts because of this policy.

"We (UCO) get numerous requests from external customers to serve alcohol at events, and we have to turn them down. We've lost a lot of business because of that," said Marilyn Kreidler, director of Marketing and Conference Service.

If the resolution is accepted by UCO and the Regents, they will likely be responsible for setting the rules regarding how, when and who may serve alcohol, Kreidler said.

Although strewn with strict guidelines regarding how, when and to whom alcohol may be served, the resolution seems riddled with ambiguities and contradictions.

In one section, the resolution makes allowances for any group or organization to serve alcoholic beverages, as long as it first receives permission from UCO Department of Student Activities and The Department of Facilities Reservations.

he university is proud of its football team, and rightly so.

The team did well. That pride does not appear to apply to winter sports.

Now that a frost or two have glazed windshields and the pigskins are packed away, where is that spirit of which letters-to-the-editor writers boasted?

Are not wrestling, indoor track and basketball worthy of support?

Where are the crowds? Where are the passionate letters?

The athletes who sweat train and strain in these sports are no less admirable than the football players. The athletes' effort is no less rigorous although less status is awarded to winter athletes.

If you think these men and women do less, go running about 6 a.m., go to your classes and practice after classes. Squeeze in homework and maybe time for a job and family. Then dare to say they do less than fall athletes.

All women and men who give their time, effort and energy to the athletic program are worthy of respect and support. In all seasons.

Yet, it also states that "no alcoholic beverages may be purchased through funds from an organization or group affiliated with or recognized by the University of Central Oklahoma."

However, Harrison said that Chartwell's Campus Dining Service — UCO's contracted catering company — will likely be responsible for serving alcoholic beverages should the resolution become campus policy.

Several attempts to contact Harrison about the apparent contradiction were unsuccessful.

The resolution also prohibits the distribution and consumption of alcoholic beverages in Greek housing, dorms and the University Commons. But it makes no mention of when, how and who

may serve alcohol outside of UCO housing.

The current version of the resolution is quite different from the original version, which allowed for a completely "wet" campus: Any person or campus organization could serve and consume alcoholic beverages in the dorms, fraternity and sorority houses, and the University Commons.

However, if the resolution had a prayer of passing the administration's critical eye, several faculty members suggested it be rewritten to make the rules regarding the distribution and consumption of alcohol on campus more restrictive, Harrison said.

Should the resolution find its way into UCO policy, it almost certainly will be met with criticism — not for allowing

alcoholic beverages to be served at UCO, but for its strict rules regarding how it may be served.

According to the resolution, people or groups serving alcoholic beverages may be required to purchase liability insurance.

They must also provide a minimum of four chaperones for every 50 people attending an event where alcoholic beverages are served.

Several attempts to contact Harrison about these stipulations were unsuccessful.

"At this point we (UCOSA) don't see any major roadblocks.

Anything that would have killed the legislation outright has been taken out (of the resolution)," Harrison said.

"Now it is just a mater of sitting down with the administration and students and seeing what they want."

Versity.com is a educational site that offers quality educational tools and resources for college students.

One of their biggest draws on the site is the

Brewed in Colorado, Fat Tire beer and other New Belgium Brewing Company beers are available in most of the states surrounding Oklahoma.

"Originally we thought we'd have it here Feb. 1, but problems with the state's liquor laws keep pushing it back," said Cafe 501 Manager Shane Cooley.

The New Belgium Brewing Company likes for its beer stay refrigerated from the brewery to the point of sale.

This ensures premium quality and freshness of the beer.

"We allow the beer to go at room temperature for up to two weeks for floor displays and things like that, but we make it clear that the beer not stay warm any longer than that," said Tara Lumpee of the New Belgium Brewery.

Six point beer can be kept cold at bars and restaurants in Oklahoma.

"It's an Oklahoma state law that a beer or liquor that's available in bars must also be available in liquor stores," said Hilda Wilds of Hirst Imports.

This keeps the New Belgium Brewing Company from offering its beers exclusively at bars and restaurants, where they could remain cold.

The other main roadblock in getting Fat Tire to Oklahoma is the brewery's capacity.

"Right now we're at right about —Photo provided 150,000 barrels per year, which is just enough to fill the demand we already The Fat Tire is one of the more popular beers from New Belgium Brewing Company. Several students are anxious for its have in other states," said Lumpee.

One of the most difficult problems for UCO had been the shortage of MIS professors.

"Last year we had five faculty openings," said Bahouth.

Administration raised the salary offered to recruits in hopes of becoming more competitive.

After active recruitment through the internet, attending conferences and talking to several organizations nationwide, UCO was only able to hire one new teacher.

"We are not competitive with salaries nationwide and that hurts," said Bahouth.

UCO does not offer a post graduate degree in MIS which means the university can not recruit from within.

The department is trying to accommodate students as best they can.

Textbook allowance proposed for disabled college students

By Allison Franklin

StaffWrites lients of UCO's vocational rehabilitation services may not have to make as many trips to the bookstore next fall.

Oklahoma's Department of Rehabilitation Services (DRS) has proposed to change a policy that will make purchasing textbooks more convenient for clients who attend college, said Cindy Gardner, DRS rulemaking liaison.

DRS provides assistance to about 26,400 clients statewide who have physical or mental disabilities that are a handicap to their employment, said Lynn Holdsclaw, supervising counselor for vocational rehabilitation at UCO. If the proposal is approved by the governor and the state legislature, about 175 UCO students will be affected,

C

Holdsclaw said.

Under the current policy, clients must go to the bookstore and get price quotes for the books they need. Then they must go to their DRS counselor and get a check for this amount, Gardner said.

"This can be a very long process. Sometimes all the client's books are not available at once, and other times clients find out later in the semester that they need an extra book for a class," Gardner said.

"As the policy stands now, the client has to keep running back and forth between their counselor and the bookstore.

Many students don't have time for this," she said.

Under the new proposal, clients are given an advanced textbook allowance of $20 per credit hour. This textbook allowance rate was established

by DRS. According to the proposal, the

rate is adjusted yearly at 200 percent of the Consumer Price Index as established by the U.S. Secretary of Labor.

Under the proposal, if the allowance does not cover the cost of textbooks, clients can receive additional funds by providing price documentation to their counselor.

If the clients' books cost less than their allowance, the clients can keep the additional funds, Gardner said.

The policy changes were proposed by rehabilitation committees around the state.

Input also came from the Oklahoma Rehabilitation Council (ORC), a group of community members appointed by the governor, said Holdsclaw "DRS and ORC get a lot of —Staff photo by Chieko Hara feedback from counselors and clients. The proposed changes Students gather by the information desk in the UCO

Three public hearings are scheduled across the state to provide an opportunity for individuals to comment on the proposal.

"We count on clients to tell us which policies to pass. We want feedback," said DRS Public Information Administrator, Jody

Harlan.

The first hearing was held Jan. 24 at the DRS office in Oklahoma City.

The second hearing will be held from 3 to 5 p.m., Feb. 1, in Lawton at the Great Plains Technology Center, 4500 W. Lee Blvd., Building 100 Auditorium.

The third hearing will be held from 3 to 5 p.m., Feb. 3, in Tulsa at the Robert S. Kerr

Career search...

Math and science job fair scheduled ry Stephanie J. Eggeling izii f you're a College of Mathematics and Science major you might want to mark Feb. 7 on your calendar.

That is the day set aside to hold the college's career day.

The fair will provide students with a chance to meet possible future employers face-to-face.

"The event will give a contact between our students and potential employers," said Dr. Kay Powers, dean of the College of Mathematics and Science.

Students interested in continuing their education at a professional school will also have an opportunity to rn3et with school representatives.

A variety of businesses have been invited, ahhough, according to Dr. Peggy Guthrie, biology chairperson, there is not yet a firm roster of those p!anning to attend.

"We sent out quite a number of invitations. The individual departments put the mailing list together so that each one would be represented," Powers said.

Some of the companies invited to participate include: Kerr-McGee, Southwell Lab, Department of Environmental Quality, Seagate Technology, Boeing, Conoco, several hospitals, Tinker Air Force Base and the FBI. Keynote speaker for the event is Oklahoma Lt.

I

Gov. Mary Fallin.

"We are very excited to have Lieutenant Governor Mary Fallin as the keynote speaker," Powers said.

The Lt. Gov. said she is honored to speak at the fair, which the college hopes will become an annual event.

"It is an honor to have been invited to speak to the state's future scientists and mathematicians," Fallin said.

Fallin believes the math and science fields will play an important role in Oklahoma's future. uov "It is wonderful to know that so many UCO students are looking into careers which have such an impact on our state's future," said Fallin.

This is the first year for the college as a whole to hold career day.

Pulling together and holding one career fair will bring more opportunities to students, Guthrie said.

"We're going to have more people here and hopefully reach more students," said Dr. Patricia LaGrow, nursing chairperson.

A benefit of attending career day is learning more about companies that may be hiring in a particular math and science discipline.

Thornton also believes career day will provide opportunities not only for students, but also the companies that attend.

"It is good for the companies because they are able to meet some of the fine students we produce and have a good opportunity for general interaction," Thornton said.

The career fair is from 8:15 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., Feb. 7 in Constitution Hall.

the same services. Just a different name.

The office formerly known as Career Development and Placement Services has shortened their name to simply Career Services.

Gina Eastman, director of Career Services, says the name change was made for a simple reason.

Career Development and Placement Services was just too long.

"We had feedback from students, faculty and employers that our old name was quite a mouthful," Eastman said.

The office also enlisted the help of the ClockTower Studio, a graphic design student based design studio.

"They (the ClockTower Studio) also suggested that shortening the name would make it easier," Eastman said.

The ClockTower Studio also

designed a new logo to go with the new name.

Eastman stresses that the change is in name only.

"We still do all of the same things," Eastman said.

"We still offer a full-range from career development up through employment services."

Along with acquiring the new name, Career Services recently gained space to create a career library.

Eastman said the new space will allow the office to expand the research resources available to students and will help create a conducive area for students to explore potential employers.

Books, videotapes, periodicals and directories that list job opportunities are some of the tools available to students in the new career library.

"It's a place where students can come in and browse, sit down and actually do research," Eastman said.

Along with the library space, Career Services offer programs designed to

"We help prospective students who may be considering UCO but aren't sure if they can get the major they want, all the way through UCO alumni who might be looking for a new job," Eastman said.

Teaching is a passion, fun for professor

ed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you've fed him for a lifetime."

This is how Dr. Freeta Jones, assistant professor of Kinesiology and Health Studies, describes her personal philosophies, desire to teach, and her new grant.

Jones grew up in a small town in northeast Oklahoma called Pawhuska.

"I always knew that I wanted to teach," Jones said.

In high school, she was a cheerleader and a member of Future Teachers of America.

"I had two choices," Jones said.

"I could stay or go to college. I choose to go to college."

Jones began her college education at the University of Oklahoma majoring in health, physical education, recreation and dance.

After receiving her bachelor's of science, Jones attended Central State University (CSU) and obtained her master's in corn amunity junior college with an emphasis in physical education and dance.

Continuing at Oklahoma State University, Jones received her doctor of education in applied educational studies.

"I received my degrees by the decade," Jones jokes.

Before coming to CSU, Jones taught physical science in Little Axe and Fairview Elementary in Moore. She also held the position of health education specialist in the comprehensive health education section for the State Department of Education.

Jones joined the faculty at CSU, which is now the University of Central Oklahoma, January, 1988. She explains that she tries to encourage students as much as she can.

"School should be a wonderful place," Jones said.

"I enjoyed school."

According to Jones, people teach the way they have been taught.

"I have a five-month-old grandchild, and the people that I'm teaching now, could be the ones teaching my grandchild years from now," Jones said.

In order to inspire young children, Jones received a grant from the university. The grant includes going to an Edmond and Mid-Del schools.

"Both schools are completely different as far as cultural diversity," Jones said.

The idea is for the college students to become a role model and give the children some exposure of college.

"There is a life after high school," Jones said.

"We have to pay attention and listen."

Jones explains that it's important to teach values because there are so many negative influences in society.

Dr. Freeta Jones, instructs students Natilie Bauer, Special Education, and Susan Njenga, Computer Science, in swimming techniques. Jone's students refer to her as the Doctor of Tun'ology.

Jones will bring the students from the schools to put on a one hour program for the parents called "PE for the Millennium."

"I'm recruiting college students to be gophers," Jones said.

"There must be a collaborative effort for it to work."

Besides teaching, Jones likes to baby-sit Taylor, her five-month-old grandchild, and give presentations for teachers and the community.

"I've given presentations in 25 different states and Japan," Jones said.

Jones said she will probably retire as an educator encouraging students and giving them her personal philosophies. "An attitude is the mind's paintbrush," Jones said.

"Keep a positive attitude about everything and be happy."

For more information about "PE for the Millennium," call Jones at 974-5236.

Hop on the bus...

Downtown OKC supplies cheap thrills for college students on limited funds

By Jarrod Briley

Staff riter

M

any students living at UCO do not have the luxury of owning a vehicle, often limiting their extracurricular activities to businesses within walking distance of the university.

Although UCO does not maintain a campus corner — at least not one worth writing home about — a few interesting businesses border the campus, offering everything from imported sports cars to pizza with a flavor that screams "Homemade Italian!"

Still, variety is the proverbial spice of life; and tantalizing as sports cars and pizza are, students here deserve diversity.

Metro Transit Bus System provides that diversity, stopping on campus six times every weekday and transporting students to downtown Oklahoma City.

The Oklahoma City bus terminal — an Edmond rider's final stop — is little more than a vacant parking lot, but located within a 15 minute walk of numerous inexpensive and intriguing activities.

Restaurants: Traveling east on Couch you will arrive at Walker.

Less than a five minute walk south on Walker and you are within mouth watering reach of one of the best burgers in Oklahoma — Big Ed's Hamburger and Pizza Town.

Located at 500 W. Main on the corner of Main and Walker, Big Ed's offers a diverse assortment of delectable delights: Hamburgers, cheeseburgers, onion burgers, chicken fried steak, hot dogs, Frito chili pie; and the list goes on.

If cattle cuisine doesn't tickle your taste buds, their are several restaurants within sight of Big Ed's, including a delicatessen and a pizza parlor.

The price of food in downtown Oklahoma City is slightly more expensive than in Edmond.

A Big Ed's Hamburger is $2.19 and a cheeseburger is $2.49. With medium-sized fries and drink, a meal there

F

rom the moment that he heard the snap and witnessed his angle swell three times its normal size, he knew that his career was over. His chances of ever becoming professional vanished.

This is a nightmare to anyone involved in an amateur sport. No athlete wants to hear the words "suspension" or "sit-out".

What if the event is not a game, but a performance? It brings up the question: What is a sport?

The Webster's Second New College Dictionary defines sport as "an active pastime: Recreation, or a specific diversion usually involving physical exercise having a set form and body of rules."

With this in mind the entire idea of what a sport is takes on a different meaning.

"Usually involving physical exercise" does not rule out pastimes such as Chess or orchestral and vocal music. There is a steady stream of competitions, performances and practices.

This brings us to the definition of art.

"Human effort to imitate, supplement, alter or counteract the work of nature."

Or "conscious arrangement... of

The words seem to mesh seamlessly, which causes some confusion.

Some of the most accomplished athletes Nancy Karrigan, Michael Jordan and Dennis Rodman have stepped into the fields of acting and fashion modeling.

Is the celebrity status enough to jump start the movie or stage career of an athlete?

Take for example Waymon Tisdale, an Oklahoma native that played basketball for Both the Indiana Pacers and the Sacramento Kings. He is now an accomplished jazz musician.

Dance, especially ballet, tap and jazz have specific rules and movements.

Each piece of choreography employs a specific play list.

This list coupled with music or rhythms becomes a performance.

This sounds similar to football and basketball. If the plays are executed incorrectly there could be disaster.

Kinesiology is the study of the movement of muscles in the human body..

This department is a part of the athletic department at UCO. Ballet is a dance technique that stresses accuracy of movement.

Many professional football coaches and owners require players to take ballet classes in order to increase agility precision.

For years performing artists and athletes have debated the difficulty of their disciplines.

Both work diligently to perfect their art forms. This warrants a healthy respect from all. Art and sport are one in the same.

As humans we learn from each other daily. Any performance for an audience or crowd deserves support.

One of those days...

Making mistakes is the embarrassing part of learning

By Celie Rabalais

ver do something so stupid that all you want to kick yourself in the butt until your brains start to ooze out of your ears?

I have. Several times that I can recall.

In fact, one of those times happened just recently.

I know mistakes happen in the newspaper business.

Fleck, just pick up an issue of any paper and you will see a correction box somewhere on the first couple of pages.

Even The New York Times, the paper considered to be the nation's historical reference paper, carries a daily correction box.

But, that doesn't excuse carelessness.

All information should be checked, doubled checked, triple checked or checked a 1000 times if it seems to be "iffy'.

The spelling programs on computers can only do so much... and not all the words used in newspapers are included in them.

And if you speak like I do, with a weird accent, you can't always spell the words the way you say them. (If you do, you won't even come within a continent of spelling them correctly.)

That's where dictionaries and directories came into use.

Universities continue to hire p ar _ ime â&#x2013;

professors over full-timers

niversities are hiring fewer full-time Uprofessors and more part-timers, according to a recent study conducted by the U.S. Department of Education.

The report, based on data accrued in 1997 from almost 4,100 institutions, is released every two years by the department's National TaeEducational sSht oa tw i s tth ica C e nTt ehre rt s ; universities stfindings hired more faculty members than they did in 1995 -- but of those new hires at four-year institutions, 11,083 were full-timers, and 24,508 were part-timers.

Overall at four-year schools in 1997, 67.4 percent of faculty members worked fulltime, and 32.6 percent worked part-time.

During the same period, the number of

faculty members at two-year institutions also rose. Of the 22,748 new hires at those institutions, 31 percent took full-time jobs, while 69 percent accepted part-time positions.

Women still make up less than half of all full-time faculty members. The report showed that 36 percent of full-timers are women and that women make up 47 percent of all part-timers.

Of the 568,719 academics working at all levels of university faculty in 1997, 5.5 percent were Asian, 4.9 percent were African American, 2.6 percent were Hispanic and 0.4 percent were American Indian or Native Alaskan.
