In an attempt to spark the interest of the community and current students, Cameron’s agricultural department implemented new courses this semester. One course targets the diminishing horticulture concentration: Insect and Disease Pest of Ornamental Plants. The course will teach students the diagnosis and treatment of insect and disease pests, focusing on outdoor plants and a pest management program will be discussed. The management program will include cultural, biological, botanical and chemical controls. The course is available for college students and individuals who have interest in outdoor landscaping and yard work. Enrolled students will earn three college credit hours or can opt for non-credit. “We have made the class available at night, in order to increase the possibility of the community to participate in the class,” Dr. Jerry Dodd, chair of department of agriculture, said. “Insect and Disease Pest of Ornamental Plants is ideal for people who are interested in horticulture and enhancing their knowledge of diseases and pests [related] to these plants.” Over the past four years student interest to obtain a concentration in horticulture has decreased. According to Dodd, interest has been lost because job opportunities are small due to the overflowing amount of people interested in
horticulture. This influx causes jobs in horticulture to not require a degree. The job opportunities typically only increase within the field if one obtains a master’s degree in horticulture. “The department has only two students who are horticulture majors,” Photo by Scott Pratt Dodd said.

Technology program tracks restructured By Angela Gradoz Features Editor At a meeting held Dec. 6 in Norman, Cameron University’s governing board, which also oversees Rogers State University and the University of Oklahoma, unanimously approved the implementation of three new degree programs through CU’s technology department. Students will be able to receive a degree in the following areas: computer information systems, engineering design technology and electronic engineering technology. According to Vice President of Academic Affairs Dr. Gary Buckley, the current technology curriculum offers tracks in each of the new areas that are to become degrees. Instead of a student receiving a Bachelor of Science in Technology with an emphasis in CIS, changes would allow the degree to read Bachelor of Science in CIS. “The update that is taking place in the technology department has to do with a change in title and content of curriculum,” he said. “We changed curriculum to make it more in line with what is current and what would be considered a worthwhile degree.” One example of name modification is changing telecommunications to electronic engineering technology. Buckley and Dr. Richard Braley, chair of the technology department, are excited about the enhancements. However, the degrees will not be a definite offering until the Oklahoma Board of Regents for Higher Education approves the proposal Feb. 10. If the proposal is approved the degrees and updated curriculum will be introduced beginning in Fall 2005. According to Buckley, the overhaul will not cause any delays or extra fees for students already pursuing the technology degree’s various tracks. “Students will be able to transition into the program and it won’t cost them anymore hours,” he said.

Attending a “floating university” and spending a semester at sea has been a reality for thousands of students and faculty. The undergraduate educational program, Semester at Sea, provides students and professors the opportunity to spend one semester aboard a ship that will cruise around the world. Dr. David Fennema, music and arts professor, is representing Cameron University in this year’s spring voyage. The four-month academic trip begins Jan. 14 and ends on April 29. Participants of this voyage will visit several countries including South Korea, Japan, Canada, Vietnam, India, China, Kenya, South Africa, Brazil and Venezuela. Fennema found out about the Semester at Sea program through a colleague at the University of Central Oklahoma. He became fascinated with the program and the vast cultural opportunities it offers. He decided to send an application, and was officially accepted into the program in April 2004. He then began preparations to embark on his endeavor. “I filed for a sabbatical and was able to notify Semester at Sea that I would be available for the voyage,” Fennema said. “I then had to get several shots, and began getting special visas for all the countries we will visit.” The program offers undergraduate level courses in almost every discipline including mathematics, English, science, business, languages, geography, music and theater arts, among others. According to Fennema, the classes will be taught while the ship is at sea, but when the ship docks, students and professors will spend approximately four to five days touring the country in which the ship is stationed. Fennema will be teaching three classes during the semester: Acting I, World Theater and World Drama. He believes the program offers a dynamic way of learning. “What makes the difference is that you study a subject, and you can get out in the world and see some of what you have studied,” he said. Fennema believes the only downfall of the trip is that he will have to leave his wife behind. He added that he will miss his students and faculty peers, but believes he will come back with more knowledge and experience to pass on to others. “I am very excited and a little nervous at the same time,” Fennema said. “I don’t like leaving my wife behind. I will also miss my students and faculty, but I will gain so much Courtesy graphic experience. I hope to be a better teacher and have more to offer when I come back.” Fennema would like to have Cameron students come along with him, but he believes that the high cost of the trip made his students unable to go. He said, it costs an average student around $15,000 to $20,000 for the semester, a steep price for the majority of Cameron students.

Stepping up
Cameron graduate jumps into real world, real career I have always been timid when it comes to making a jump. I’m not talking about a jump off the curb or jumping on my bed, but, metaphorically, I always seem to second-guess my decisions. I second-guessed my decision to join the armed forces. I second-guessed whether or not to move to Oklahoma and get married. I even second-guessed my choice of major several times and ended up deciding to do two for lack of ability to just choose one. I am the type of person who will walk around a video store for a half hour and leave convinced that I can save my four dollars and watch a made-for-TV movie or reruns of Law and Order. Now, as I have approached the end of my college education, graduated with good marks and have accepted a promising job in my field, I am second-guessing my decision and finding myself wishing I were still sitting in the third row of classroom 114, where I have spent the majority of the past few years. I have tried to understand why I have this fear and want so desperately to stay Jennie Hanna in a place I worked so hard to get out of. After all, I took extra classes just so I could graduate a semester early. Perhaps it is the feeling of comfort and dependability. Perhaps it is all the friends I have made, or perhaps it is just the desire to avoid the next level of adulthood that now lays before me like a sunset ending a beautiful summer day. These are all good reasons, but I think my problem is that once I leave Cameron and go somewhere else, I become the younger one of the group. The inexperienced and most expendable one without the clout that I have had while in college. At Cameron I was a good student who took a great deal of interest in my majors and spoke up sometimes more than my fair share in class. I was also a whiz at designing the newspaper, and I enjoyed the fact that my fellow staff members made me feel irreplaceable. To put it in simpler terms, I felt needed and respected. Now I am a long way from ever being in this position of being an expert over a craft and being the person everyone asks for the right answer. Now I will be the new guy, and I don’t like it much because I am no longer in control. However, despite my desire to remain within my comfort zone and not venture out into the unknown, I always seem to take that leap and put myself out there for all to see. My mother used to always tell me as a young child that if you don’t know where your next step should be, you should stand still. I disagree. Despite my timidness to take a leap, I think that is exactly what I need to do. So, I hope that all of you do the same — overcome any of your fears about being inadequate and when your time comes, make that leap with both eyes open.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor: This letter is written to thank a wonderful young man that really saved me this holiday season. I was attending an Alumni Board meeting on campus on a rainy night just before the holidays and dropped my wallet just outside my car as I was getting out. When I was leaving the meeting, a nice person delivered the wallet to me. The person informed me that Justin had picked it up and had taken the time to come in and leave it for me. How nice! He didn’t leave his name and wanted no thanks, but I am so grateful to him. I know that there was plenty in the wallet that could have tempted even the best, but Justin was honest and thoughtful. I know your family must be as proud of you as I am. Thank you so much! I have been part of the Alumni Board for the last six years and during that time I have met so many wonderful students. I am so proud to have attended Cameron University and that I was given the opportunity to serve on the board. To Justin, thanks for such a wonderful holiday present. I hope I can pass it on someday.

Kruse takes on combined role
Campus Round-up CU bookstore returns to regular hours
By Laura Brady Staff Writer Student services have been a part of Dr. Larry Kruse’s life for many years, and with the appointment to the position of vice president for student services, Kruse will find this position to be second nature. The opening comes as the result of vice president Samantha Thomas’ move to Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Kruse was originally hired as Cameron’s associate provost for enrollment management in 2003, and he brings over 30 years of experience to his new position. Kruse will also continue responsibilities in the role of enrollment manager. “I’ve been extremely pleased to be at CU,” Kruse said. “I think our students are just wonderful and the faculty does an excellent job. And, I believe we’re on the edge with President Ross’ leadership and I think we’re on the edge of some additional exciting things happening with the continued growth of CU. We are enlarging our responsibility to Southwest Oklahoma by the inclusion of things like the CETES program. I’m just pleased to be part of that.” Student services work with an array of areas, such as recruitment, admissions, the Registrar’s office, housing and student organizations. According to Kruse, he will maintain the majority of these things. “Samantha Thomas did a very good job, and I’m looking forward to all of this,” he said. With the addition of his new role as vice president for student services, Kruse will also supervise housing, federal programs, student activities and student development. “I have a lot of good people helping me out,” Kruse said. According to Kenya Dreher, secretary of admissions, “Dr. Kruse is a great person to work with. He isn’t a ‘micro manager.’ He trusts you to get your work done, but he isn’t pushy about it.” Kruse said one of the most important responsibilities is making sure CU provides a well- rounded educational experience for its students. “We need to have value added things that are included outside of the classroom, like developing leadership by way of the Student Government Association, the PAC committee and Aggie Ambassadors,” he said. “These groups allow students to participate in decision making and responsibility processes other than just what happens in the classroom.”

The bookstore has returned to regular hours of 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday. The bookstore will remain open until 5:30 p.m. Jan. 14 and Jan. 21. Jan. 21 is the final day for a full refund on textbook purchases this semester. On Jan. 28, regular Friday hours of 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. will resume.
Post Office holiday schedule The Post Office is running on its normal schedule, closing at 1:30 p.m. on Friday afternoon for sales, but remaining open until 4:30 p.m. for university mail metering. The Post Office will be closed on Jan. 17 for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Another project that Kruse is looking forward to is the completion of Cameron Village. “It will be an exciting time for the university because this is the first time CU has ventured into apartment living,” Kruse said. “It will also offer some new opportunities and freedoms for students.” Kruse doesn’t want to make many changes, but is looking for integration. “We’ll be integrating some of the elements that have been separate before and working more closely with each of those elements,” Kruse said. “The closer communication between the elements that are involved in the whole arena of student services will allow us to better serve the community.” According to Kruse, it is important for him to be an advocate for the students. “There are issues that occur during the course of a student’s experience that require someone standing up and saying, ‘We’re on the side of the student,’” he said.
While the process of proposing the new degrees and curriculum to various boards began three years ago, Braley is confident that the Oklahoma State Board of Regents will authorize the proposal. Braley believes money should not play a significant factor in determining the outcome of the Feb. 10 meeting, since the technology department receives an adequate amount of capital. The technology department receives funding from the Carl Perkins III and Federation of International Geographers’ grants. Over $350,000 from the Carl Perkins III grant has been used to purchase new equipment such as programming logic controllers and computer circuitry equipment. In addition, $211,000 from the Federation of International Geographers grant was used to generate Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Geographical Position Systems (GPS) courses and a newly furnished engineering design technology lab. Buckley believes technology department students will greatly benefit from the proposed modifications. “It’s an improvement in identity as far as what the students’ background is,” he said.

Approval of capital bond to facilitate improvements for campus buildings Collegian Staff A $500 million capital bond issue, proposed jointly by Oklahoma’s 25 public university and college presidents and supported by Gov. Brad Henry, will soon reach the floor of the State Legislature. If successful, the bond will provide each of the state’s colleges and universities with funds for repairs and improvements to aging facilities and campuses. Of the proposed capital bond program, Cameron University will receive more than $12 million for the renovation and expansion of its Business Building, several infrastructure rehabilitation projects and the continuation of university’s efforts to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Facts gathered by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education show that most state colleges and universities have not had a significant capital construction project in 12 years, forcing those educational institutions to complete small construction projects and maintenance with the aid of grants and private funding. “It has been more than a decade since capital bonds were issued to construct and renovate buildings on Oklahoma public college and university campuses,” said President Cindy Ross. “Since that time, deferred maintenance, unmet technology updates and student enrollment growth have put tremendous strain on the infrastructure of those institutions — including Cameron University.” During the past five years, enrollment across the state has
increased by more than 28,000 students. Today, almost 230,000 students attend Oklahoma colleges and universities. During this same five-year period, Cameron University’s student enrollment has increased 30 percent to 5,779 this past fall. More than half of the buildings on CU’s Lawton campus are 40 years or older with five of them, including Nance Boyer, the university’s main classroom building, constructed before World War II. Only the Sciences Complex and Fitness Center have been built in the last two decades. “Although every effort has been made over the years to maintain Cameron’s physical plant, many buildings show the effects of aging — a situation exacerbated by deferred maintenance caused by inadequate funding,” Ross said. “As a result, many of our buildings are rapidly nearing the end of their useful lives.” The projects listed in the bond proposal represent only the most pressing needs of each university or college. If approved by the Legislature, the proposal represents only the third capital bond issue for higher education since statehood in 1907. Approval of the bond will yield $12,059,247 for Cameron, which will be divided among six projects with the bulk, $7 million, going to the renovation and expansion of the Business Building. At more than 30,000-square feet, the three-story building was constructed as a women’s dormitory in 1964. The structure has housed many unique occupants
CJ graduate aids in poolside rescue By Scott Pratt Staff Writer/Photographer The frigid water of a backyard pool threatened the life of a 2-year-old girl on Dec. 29. Recent Cameron criminal justice graduate Larry Bouggess, now a detective sergeant of the Warr Acres Police Department, pulled the girl from a pool after she had followed her Labrador through a doggy door in a neighbor’s garage. “We received a call about 3:30 p.m. for a missing child in the 5900 block in Warr Acres,” Bouggess said. While the gate of the family’s yard was left open, their Labrador ran out. Two girls, ages 2 and 3, followed the dog through the neighborhood. They continued to tag along until it led them into a neighboring garage about two blocks away. The dog then went through a doggy door into the backyard and the girls followed. Detective Sergeant Bouggess was in contact with a police helicopter at the time. The officers in the helicopter informed Bouggess that a girl had fallen into a pool and appeared to be struggling. “When the helicopter told us the girl was in the pool and struggling we started to run to the location,” Bouggess said. “When we got there, the gate was locked. I pulled the fence panel off to get into the backyard.” Upon arriving at the pool, Bouggess saw the girl sinking. “She was at least a foot under water,” Bouggess said. He and another officer jumped into the pool. Bouggess then pulled the girl to the pool’s side where his companion helped pull her out onto the ground. “She was already turning blue, but when we rolled her over onto her chest she expelled a lot of water and began to breathe,” he said. An off-duty fireman, who was also at the scene, wrapped the girl in dry clothes to warm her up and dry her off. Bouggess received a medal of merit award for life-saving and his part in the rescue. Bouggess graduated from Cameron last December with a criminal justice degree.
through its history, including the local offices for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), before finally returning to academic use in 1985. During the FAA occupation, the original heating, cooling and air handling systems were replaced with individual fan coil units, eliminating the induction of fresh outside air into the building. Heat is provided through the original 1964 unit. The inefficient L-shape of the design prohibits the easy flow of foot traffic and the building does not have an elevator. The project will expand the building to 48,000 square feet and renovate classrooms, lecture halls and faculty offices. The cost also includes furniture, fixtures, equipment, technology upgrades and an elevator. Second on Cameron’s project list is the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system for the Shepler Center and the Fitness Center. The HVAC units were installed in 1989 for use of the Shepler Center only. However the Fitness Center and Sciences Complex, both constructed in the last 15 years, have been tied into the same system, requiring the HVAC units to provide heating and cooling for three of CU’s major structures. The requirements of these three buildings have kept the units in constant operation, preventing performance of annual services and maintenance recommended by the manufacturer and shortening the expected 15 to 20 year life span significantly. Currently, the units are running at 75 percent capacity. The cost of the project will be $700,000.

At left, peeling paint and chipped mirror tiles add to the look of disrepair. If the capital bond issue passes, funds will be used to address these and other campus improvements. Additionally, $1 million has been allotted to add central heat and air to the 40-year-old Aggie Gym, which also has classroom facilities. The gym has no air conditioning and is heated by an antiquated hot-water boiler circulation system. The project will also retrofit lighting to increase energy efficiency and provide currently unavailable ADA access to the spectator area, as well as create a new main entrance, expand ticket booths and
improve restroom facilities. The final three projects for Cameron’s portion of the bond include $500,000 for ADA compliance measures; $800,000 for relocation of existing parking lots, creation of additional parking areas, and redirection of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, as well as possibly relocating a campus entry access road and more than $2 million in roof repairs and improvements on the exteriors of buildings campus-wide.

Auditions for various roles in “Annie Get Your Gun” were held on Jan. 10 and 11 at the Cameron University Theatre. Chair of Music and Theatre Arts, Scott Richard Klein, will direct the production, Dr. Gregory Hoephner will direct the music, and Dr. James Brock will choreograph. According to Klein, over 60 actors and actresses, singers and dancers from Lawton and the surrounding areas turned out for the auditions. Students such as Jesi Horn, a seventh grader from Walters Junior High, auditioned for one of two parts to be filled by a 10 to 12-year-old girl. Horn, who specializes in dance, said, “I found out about the auditions last night in the newspaper, and I tried my best.” Horn spent several hours the night before her audition studying with her school choir instructor Ms. Steadman in an attempt to master a song for her audition. Horn’s mother stated, “Even if she (Jesi) doesn’t make it, at least
she tried.” All participants were required to memorize a song from the Broadway musical and then sing it during their audition. Throughout the auditions, Professor of Music and Theatre Arts, Dr. Hyunsoon Whang, accompanied all participants on the piano. While some participants were strong singers, others were excellent dancers. For the second portion of the audition, all participants were allowed to show their dancing abilities. “Annie Get Your Gun” is a story based on the true life adventures of Annie Oakley, a renowned female sharpshooter from Ohio. “Annie Get Your Gun” will be the third production from the CU Department of Music and Theatre Arts for the 2004 - 2005 season. Performance dates are 8 p.m. March 3-5 and 2 p.m. March 6. Cameron students will be admitted free with a valid student ID. For more information about this production, call 581.2346.

According to owner Robert Kransniqi, the restaurant does not have its liquor license yet. “We do not have a lot of space for wine and beer, but we will be getting the license soon,” he said. The building is not very large; it may hold 60 customers, so offpeak hours are the only times you can be seated immediately. We tried to go around 6 p.m. one day, and a line to get into both the parking lot and the building caused us to choose another day. We fi nally got right in one day around 2:30 p.m. So, if you are in the mood for good food and service, visit Luigi’s at 207 S. Sheridan Road. Overall Grade: A-

How can you resist this face? Antonio Banderas played Puss ‘n’ Boots in Shrek 2. Latin star Antonio Banderas (Mask of Zorro) lends his voice to the role of “Puss ‘n’ Boots,” a cat with a very bad disposition. The movie grossed over $400 million, not only making it the #1 movie of 2004 but also the #3 movie all time. It is now the highest grossing comedy ever and highest grossing animated movie ever. Grade: B+ Steven Spielberg (Saving Private Ryan) hooked up with Tom Hanks (The Ladykillers) again to make another great movie. The Terminal delivered a box office dud but was one of the best Hanks performances in many years. The Terminal was a comedy-drama about an immigrant restricted to the airport after his passport was null after a political coup d’etat in his home country. There he meets a flight attendant (Catherine-Zeta Jones) with love problems. The Terminal is one of those movies everybody should see and is fun for anybody who watches it. Grade: A Halle Berry won an Oscar for her role in Monsters Ball but that must have been a stroke of luck. With below average performances in X-Men and Gothika, her career is going downhill faster than the sun sets at night. She delivered another atrocious performance in Catwoman. This was hardly the role Michelle Pfeiffer made famous
Band Profile: Against 72 Made up of Mike McBride, Ryan Joyce, Josh Cranston, Caleb Marlin and Kyle Joliff, Against 72 is a self-proclaimed “hybrid metal band.” Their music is influenced by death metal, hard-core, progressive metal and experimental rock. The band played at The Living Room in Oklahoma City last Friday, along with Bury the Remains, Edict of Nantes and Mercy’s Wake. Check out Against 72 at their upcoming shows: • Friday at The Railhead Saloon (909 S. Sheridan Rd.) along with “The Victory” • Friday, Feb. 4 at the Vineyard (next to Lowe’s) with “Bury the Remains,” “Harmful if Swallowed” and “The Closer” • Monday, Feb. 21 at The Railhead Saloon Information about the band can also be accessed through their web site, www.againstseventytwo.net.
in Batman Returns. Instead, we see Halle Berry flashing the screen in a tight skimpy leather outfit with a long whip. Single men probably fueled its very poor showing at the box office. Pick it up on DVD if anybody needs a good torture device. Grade: DThe web slinger himself made it back to the big screen in SpiderMan 2. To the dismay of many action lovers expecting the same dazzling effects as the original, SM2 was more of a love story between Peter Parker (Toby Maguire) and Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst). Alfred Molina delivered a solid performance as the infamous Doc Ock, a man with four metal arms attached to his body. For the action lovers, Spider-Man 3 should deliver. Grade: B+ M. Night Shyamalan should be ashamed of himself. The famous director of thrillers The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable and Signs, The Village joined the likes of Bennifer and Battlefield Earth as one of the worst movies to hit movie screens. The Village was sold as a horror story about a group of villagers living in the Pennsylvania woods of 1896 where evil “creatures” stalked. To the dismay of anybody who watches it, The Village is far from scary, hardly thrilling and nothing more than a unbelievable bad love story. Shyamalan, who considers himself a modern Hitchcock, needs to reminisce on this movie and see what not to do. Grade: DOliver Stone is a man of many faces: the face of a good movie director, and the face of a bad movie director. His “dream project” Alexander was the equivalent to a dud at the box office. It opened to bad reviews and even worse results with only $20 million. Colin Farrell played the title role of Alexander the Great, King of Macedonia who led a long and brutal conquest to overpower the world by the age of 24. He hardly captured the hearts of Americans with the depiction of a bisexual Alexander. Grade: C
While 2004 saw the breakup of Hollywood’s worst couple (take a guess, it’s not that hard) it also endured the sad loss of some of its greatest stars. Marlon Brando, most famous for his character in The Godfather, died. Superman and super man Christopher Reeve also died from complications from his paralysis. Comedian, self proclaimed screwball and Hollywood legend 83-year-old Rodney Dangerfield died after a severe heart attack. Former President and Hollywood film star Ronald Reagan also died from complications with Alzheimer’s. Non-Hollywood notables Ray Charles (king of jazz) and Julia Child (French cooking celebrity) also died in 2004. Rest in peace all. And look to a better year as some new long awaited movies are set to air this year. Spielberg’s long awaited collaboration with Tom Cruise will finally come full circle in War of the Worlds (hailed as the most expensive movie ever made) out June 30. The Fantastic Four is due out July 2. The Dark Knight also returns in an even darker movie, Batman Begins, out in late June.

Men, Lady Aggies basketball travel to Texas A&M-Commerce By Sonya Ray Staff Writer Cameron University men and women basketball teams traveled to Texas on Jan. 8 to battle it out with Texas A&M Commerce. The Lady Aggies were able to improve 6-7 on the year with a win over the Lions, 74-64. Within the first minutes of the game, the Lady Aggies had excelled to a 16-4 lead. Cameron shot nearly 43 percent from the field in the first half, while Texas A&M Commerce was restricted to 30.8 percent, entering intermission at 34-25. The Lions opened the second half with an 18-5 run. With 14 minutes left to play, the Lions had obtained a four-point lead. The Lady Aggies remained determined and answered with a 17-2 run. Melissa Steen and Katie Stoll contributed with back-to-back three pointers. Lady Aggies hit 5 of 7 field goal attempts while limiting the Lions to 1 of 7. Cameron continued to add to their lead by taking advantage of the Lions turnovers and free throw attempts leaving the score at 63-49 with 5:54 left to play. During final minutes of the game, LaKesha Turner helped pull the Lions within four points of Cameron when she landed a three-point shot. The Lady Aggies converted 7 of 10 free throws over the final minute to seal their win. Cameron outscored Texas A&M Commerce 24-8 at the line. CU has finished at 70 percent above the line for the fifth straight game. Steen posted her second double double of the season

Cry foul!: Senior Marcus Girtman attempts a free throw in the Aggies basketball team’s victory over Abilene Christian University and finished with 11 points and a team-high of 10 rebounds. Christina Buben held a team high of 16 points. Stoll added 14 points and Brittany Cooksey ended with 11 points. This gives the Lady Aggies their fourth straight win. Unfortunately, Cameron University men’s basketball team was not as successful. They added another loss to their basket after battling No. 17 ranked Texas A&M Commerce. This leaves the Aggies with their third loss of the season. The Lions dominated the game
from beginning to end, leaving the Aggies with their eyes wide shut. Early in the game, CU had the advantage with a score of 9-8. The Lions turned things around midway through the opening half gathering an 11-point lead. CU was unable to regain their lead throughout the rest of the game. Cameron Aggies fell short to A&M Commerce in rebounding 40-21. The Lions also shot 55 percent from the field and a sick 61.9 percent from three-point range. The Aggies shot 5 of 18 from the three-point range and
trailed 48-35 at the half. By the second half, the 11-point lead quickly expanded into a 20point lead which never waivered throughout the rest of the game. Lion’s starter Chris Fantroy dimmed the hopes of the Aggies when he put up a three-pointer that gave his team the advantage of 64-42 with 14:41 left in the second period. The Lions handed the Aggies a 94-69 loss. Aggies junior Arthur Trosdell, who has only been off the bench two times this season, answered with five rebounds and his
game high of 18 points on 7 of 9 shooting. Junior Eric Moore also brought double figures to the scoreboard scoring 12 points for the Aggies. Senior Marcus Girtmon was held to his season low of seven points. Texas A&M Commerce forward Brandon Bowie led his team with 15 points. Fantroy, Matthew Ranger and Jermart Miller also landed in the double digits scoring 14 points each. The Cameron Aggies start their Lone Star Conference division play at East Central on Jan. 20.
International sports stars step up to help tsunami victims Heroes are as old as humanity itself. In every culture, since the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, Josh Rouse through the Greeks and Romans, there have been heroes. The ancient Greeks and Romans saw heroes as larger than life men with names like Achilles, Hercules, Odysseus and Perseus. Today, heroes come in every shape and form. Heroes are the men and women who pick their kids up at school and take them to soccer practice. They are the men and women who are overseas fighting for America on foreign soil. They are even the men and women Americans turn their televisions on daily to watch in professional sports. Modern day sports heroes hurt when humanity hurts. They give when humanity needs. With the tsunami disaster in Indonesia and India, their heroic gifts are in terrible need. And many of these sports heroes are stepping up to the plate to hit a home run for the victims of this tragic disaster. Formula One Champion Mike Schumacher is one of these heroes. A close friend, along with two young sons, were killed while on
vacation in Indonesia. The Ferraridriving on the edge racer pledged $10 million to help those in need from the tsunami aftermath. He donated this money on Jan. 4 during a German fundraising gala. It was a joint effort between the German Red Cross and the United Nations Children’s Funds. The aid is pouring in from all sports organizations. FIFA, the world’s soccer governing body, pledged $1.5 million. The Asian Football Federation also pledged an additional $1.5 million. These two sports entities have joined forces to launch an international fundraiser with all donations heading to tsunami hit areas. In a recent press release FIFA said, “FIFA and AFC will also call upon famous (soccer) personalities, primarily former players, to help with distribution efforts and solidarity movements in the affected region.” These soccer personalities include the famous Mia Hamm who led the women’s American World Cup Soccer team to a World Cup victory as well as to the gold in the 2004 Olympic Games. Baseball superstar Barry Bonds started a fundraising auction for a seat next to him in the dugout of a 2005 baseball game. Bonds pledged all proceeds from the auction to go to charities helping out those in Indonesia. With Bonds’ stardom and legendary
baseball status, the seat is predicted to reach the thousands of dollars, if not more. The basketball community is also doing its part. Marred by recent bad publicity with the Ron Artest brawl in Detroit and the Kobe Bryant rape case, the NBA is looking for a foothold on the PR plain. Tracy McGrady, Kobe Bryant, Jermaine O’Neal and Toronto Raptor Jalen Rose each donated $1,000 for every point they scored in a series of games. The donations were made to UNICEF, a children’s fund with public figures like Michael Jordan. Never has there been a natural disaster with the casualty rate of this horrific event. Everything is being done that can be done to save those who have survived. The world has come together in an effort to help bring relief to those who need it. Thus far, Germany has donated $674 million in aid. America has donated $350 million and Canada has donated $80 million. The total donation amount has surpassed $3 billion. Rest assured, every cent will be spent to rebuild in this long painstaking process.

CU presenters earn honors in competition By Kathleen Kelly Copy Editor Four Cameron University students were honored for their research presentations on Oct. 29, 2004, at the sixth annual Oklahoma Research Day event held at the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO) in Edmond. Representing each of CU’s four academic schools, students created poster presentations visually highlighting their individual research projects. Enock Faustin, a chemistry senior representing the School of Science and Technology, received a commendation for research in hydrogen-bonding studies. Catherine Field, a psychology senior representing the School of Education and Behavioral Studies, was recognized for her work in assessing personality using linguistic analysis. Tammy James, a criminal science senior representing the School of Liberal Arts, received a commendation for researching recidivism as a dilemma in society. Jenny Jackson, a marketing junior in the School of Business, was honored for research in person-organization fit in human resource management functions. Dr. Lloyd Dawe, dean of graduate studies and campus coordinator for the event, said that Cameron has set a standard to which the other institutions aspire. “It started the very first year when we decided to centralize the development of the posters to give

all of Cameron’s presentations a uniform and professional look. This took a great deal of coordination and the participation of many people and offices on campus,” Dawe said. “The Director of Academic Research Support and the graduate research assistants in that office have done a great deal of work over the years. The technology department, in particular, Tom Russell, has helped a great deal in printing the posters. Coordination and funding have come from the School of Graduate Studies and the Vice President for Academic Affairs.” According to Dawe, the seeds for what has become a nationally recognized event were planted when a group of graduate deans and academic officers came together to address the concern that excellent applied research being conducted at the regional institutions was not getting the recognition it deserved. “Prior to the onset of the conference six years ago, there was an association or perception that research occurred at the two comprehensive institutions while only teaching occurred at the regional institutions,” Dawe said. “The fallout from the perception was that the comprehensive institutions had no problems getting matching funds for grants while the regional institutions struggled to find funding for scholarly projects.” Cameron University, East Central, Langston, Northeastern State, Northwestern Oklahoma State,
Southeastern Oklahoma State, Southwestern Oklahoma State and the University of Central Oklahoma joined together to promote research at their institutions. Working with Maryanne Maletz, vice chancellor for budget and finance with the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, the Council on Research for Regional Universities was formed. The first Research Day was held in 1999. The success of the Council is evident in the increasing numbers of participants and Courtesy Photo sponsors.

Students receive hands-on training to compliment the classes that they are taking. “Our main goal is to ensure all students are satisfied with the degree they chose and that their experience with the CU agriculture classes and department is memorable,” Dodd said.
