Supporters of cargo shorts avoid-ed a major blow Tuesday during an Undergraduate Student Congress meeting.

Student Congress attempted to ban cargo shorts during regular meetings and committee meetings with violators being punished with actions, such as but not limited to

“additional constituent service, having to stand for the duration of the session,” among other punish-ments, according to the bill.

“This is just the first step,” bill au-thor Jeremy Allen said. “Jorts, Crocs, it is all on the table.”

Representatives had a lively dis-cussion debating how far the bill would go and whether the pun-ishments would be considered hazing.

It could be amended so that it wouldn’t haze students, Allen said.

The discussion lasted about 10

minutes before the bill was voted down by a resounding majority of 19 against and two supporting. Six representatives abstained from the vote.

I n o t h e r b u s i n e s s, S t u d e n t Congress passed a resolution op-posing a crackdown on slackliners by OUPD, legislation on updates to the UOSA Code Annotated and a $300 emergency allocation to the Criminology/Sociology Club.

T h e u p d a t e s t o t h e C o d e Annotated consisted of cleaning up redundant or unused sections

and accounting for the Student Organization Resource Office, which allows organizations to check out equipment. The office has been available to students but wasn’t ac-counted for in the Code Annotated, bill author Akash Patel said.

The Code Annotated and funding bills will need to be passed by the Graduate Student Senate before it can be put into effect.

PAIGHTEN HARKINS campus reporter

This year marks the 70th anniversary of University College , which has grown considerably since its cre-ation and now boasts more programs that help stu-dents than ever before.

In 1942, the OU Board of Regents gave the new college jurisdiction over all OU students who have not yet been accepted into degree–granting colleges, according to a University Senate document from that year .

Seventy years later, the pur-pose of the college remains almost identical, yet the col-lege has a much larger pres-ence now, education profes-sor Jerome Weber said.

Each year, the college serves about 5,500 students, including incoming fresh-men and sophomores who haven’t declared a major, said Nicole Campbell, inter-im dean of the college , in an email.

The college offers pro-grams like University College Action tutoring, Student Success Seminars, major ex-ploration coaching and facul-ty mentoring to help students

An OU graduate student recently placed second in a national architectural design competition with a plan to redesign Norman’s civic complex.

Andrew Stevens, ar-c h i t e c t u r e g r a d u a t e student , originally de-signed the project for his architecture studio class before submitting it to the Architecture and Engineering of Sustainable Buildings Student Design Competition last semes-ter , according to the press release.

The results were an-nounced in September. Stevens, who entered as an individual, beat larger teams of students and re-ceived $2,000 for his per-formance. As part of the award, Stevens will present his work at the American Institute of Architects National Convention in June in Denver .

Stevens’ project was se-lected for its focus on the national issue of net-zero energy systems and envi-ronmental footprints . His placement in the com-petition highlights the College of Architecture’s emphasis on sustainability and sustainable building methods, said Lee Fithian,

Fourteen student orga-nizations lined the South Oval in cardboard dwellings Tuesday as part of an event to raise money for Habitat for Humanity.

This event, know n as “Build-a-Thon ,” consists of students constructing buildings out of cardboard and other materials, vol-unteering their time and encouraging pedestrians on the South Oval to make monetary donations.

Organized by OU’s chap-ter of Habitat for Humanity, the event originally went by “Shack-a-Thon” before

graduate architecture student andrew Stevens recently won second place with his design of the renovation of norman’s civic complex in the acSa/nSF Sponsor competition: the architect and engineering of Sustainable buildings.

conteSt: Sooner’s designs stress sustainabilityContinued from page 1

architecture professor and Steven’s faculty mentor .

In Stevens’ studio class, students were prompted to redesign Norman’s entire civic complex, and each stu-dent’s plan had to address how individual buildings could share resources such as water and electricity and how the complex could have a stronger link with commu-nity events , according to the press release.

The graduate architecture studios focus on regenera-tive architecture, which fo-cuses on using nature as the foundation for architecture, Fithian said.

“Sustainability is the fu-ture,” Stevens said. “[To be] able to do it in school and learn how it is done gives us an edge over those students who graduated a few years ago and haven’t seen these concepts.”

Sustainability is becom-ing a major aspect of design and will become a required design element as building codes change over the next few years, Stevens said.

The key to designing a sus-tainable building is to place it within nature without affecting the environment, Stevens said.

“ H o w c o o l would it be … to drive down the r o a d a n d n o t see power lines strung all over the place?” Stevens asked. “If enough buildings produce their own power, there wouldn’t be a need for them.”

The emphasis of sustain-ability in design is part of the Gould Hall Green Initiative, which centers on reducing waste within Gould Hall and

teaching students about the importance of sustainability , according to the initiative’s website.

Designing in the college allowed Stevens to incorpo-rate creativity into his entry, Stevens said.

“ I n s c h o o l , you are free to design what you want, [but] in the real world, you are limited to a budget,” Stevens said. “Some of the more innova-tive designs like my competition entry would be very expensive to build, so you would never be

able to design it working for an architectural firm.”

Stevens’ performance as an individual reveals how much work he and Fithian accomplished last semester, he said.

“It also gives me an edge over other graduates when it comes to applying for a job, being able to say I placed in a national competition and had my work displayed at the American Institute

o f A r c h i t e c t s Na t i o n a l Convention as a student,” Stevens said.

adjust to college, Campbell said.“The transition to college is mon-

umental — full of changes that pro-foundly impact stu-dents,” Campbell said.

Weber created many of these pro-grams, notably the freshmen seminars and Gateway class-es, during his 19-year tenure as dean from 1971 to 1991.

This fall, 1,467 students enrolled i n a t o t a l o f 7 1 Gateway classes. T h e s e c o u r s e s , which help prepare new students for life at the university, focus on honing students’ study and time-management skills, Weber said.

The freshmen seminars, which have 231 students enrolled, help freshmen take an interesting class while completing their general edu-cation requirements their first year.

C I A a n d C o n g r e s s , F r o m Hieroglyphs to Manga and Pre-Law 101 are among the seminars listed for this fall, according to oZONE.

“While I teach only graduate courses now, I’m more convinced

than ever that the University College concept is really a very good concept,” Weber said. “I think it is a place dedicated to success and well-being of new under-graduate students, and I think that is very valuable.”

T h r e e d e a n s worked at the college after Weber, leading up to the leadership of Doug Gaffin in 2002.

Gaffin established the Center for Student Advancement, helped initi-ate the UC Action tutoring program and helped plan the construction of the Lissa and Cy Wagner Hall, which was completed in 2009, Gaffin said in an email.

The new building houses the col-lege and is described as a “home

base” by Campbel because it holds all of the college’s resources — from its advisers to its private study rooms — in one space.

Buchanan Hall originally housed the college until the 1980s, when it moved to Carnegie Hall, Weber said.

In commemoration of the anni-versary, the college printed special anniversary T-shirts for incoming students in the summer, Campbell said. The college does not have any planned anniversary celebrations at the moment.

Campbell sees how much the college has grown and wants to continue pushing forward by ex-panding the UC Action tutoring and Major Exploration programs and creating more special sections of the Gateway courses that are tai-lored more toward the students’ own academic interest, she said.

Student organizations built the improvised struc-tures to help raise awareness about the number of people living without homes.

Nearly 2 billion people around the world live in slum housing, and more than 100 million are home-less, according to Habitat for Humanity’s website.

Student organizations used methods ranging from excitable puppies to free cookies to convince stu-dents to donate. Fraternity members holding signs advertising “Will sing for $1” and “hugs and kisses:

$1” lined up along the bike lane.

Th e m o n e y ra i s e d by the event will be donated to Habitat for Humanity, a nonprofit Christian orga-nization that builds homes f o r l o w - i n -c o m e f a m i -lies, accord-ing to the or-ganization’s website.

P r e -nursing soph-omore Mandy B e r re y s a i d she thought the turnout was great and she wants her organization to raise the most money for Habitat for Humanity.

M a n y s t u d e n t s a p -peared passionate about making a difference in the

community. “We are out here because

it is a great cause, and we are happy to help the commu-nity in any way,” University College freshman Indigo Deberry said.

Chemical engineering sophomore Haley Carlile participated in the event w i t h A l p h a Phi Omega, a co-ed service fraternity.

“I think it’s important for our campus in general to get involved

and donate money to a good cause … I guess it brings us together in a way instead of just being our own sepa-rate majors — everybody

together for one cause,” Carlile said.

The morning following the second presidential debate, I was shocked to learn that the Green Party nominees for president and vice president – Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala – had been arrested the night before outside of the debate hall on the charge of “blocking traffic,” after first being refused admittance to the debate and then refusing to leave.

Even more shocking than this though was the fact that in the days following, this action was seemingly so insignificant that it has essentially gone unreported as a meaningful news story.

This letter is not meant primarily as a plug for the Green Party platform, but rather as a critique of the theatrical farce that we call “presidential debates.”

The Green Party and Libertarian Party are both

national parties with candidates on the ballots in most states. These candidates may not be realistic contenders for the presidency, but they represent the real diversity of

the American electorate.By offering real alternative voices, they

force the major party candidates to be stronger and define their positions more clearly.

In politics as in business, fair competition delivers the best product to the consumer, and the corporate duopoly of our two party system is increasingly disconnected from the actual voice of the people, replacing real choice with a falsely restricted set of mediated alternatives.

The Green Party candidates alone currently poll at roughly 2 to 3 percent nationally, which may not sound like much until one considers that more

people nationally are likely to vote Green in this election than there are voters in Oklahoma.

The level of disenfranchisement and disrespect offered to alternative voices in this process is truly appalling in a country based on purportedly democratic ideals. Please be aware of what is missing from this process and debate.

Of course in Oklahoma, this whole argument about populist access to democracy is purely an academic exercise, because Oklahoma is a state where minor presidential candidates are not even allowed access to the ballot unless they can demonstrate at least 5 percent support through petition.

Nor is one allowed the option to write in a choice other than the major party candidates.

This avoids cluttering the ballot and election process with “frivolous” candidates.

EDITORIAL

Oklahomans face diverse ballot questions

SQ 765 — Public Welfare Department Amendment

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

More political parties will result in stronger candidates

SQ 766 — Intangible Tax Ban Amendment

SQ 764 — Reserve Fund Amendment

SQ 758 — Property Tax Amendment

This referendum would ban property taxes on all intangible property: property that derives its value from a non-physical characteristic.

Some intangible property already is protected from property tax in Oklahoma, but other kinds are currently taxed and no longer would be if this referendum passes. For example:

• patents, inventions, designs and trade secrets• licenses, franchises and contracts• land leases, mineral interests and insurance policies• trademarks and brand namesThis question was inspired by a court decision ruling all intangible

property eligible to be taxed. Because the ruling extended property taxes to new property types, Oklahoma businesses have called for this referendum, claiming it is necessary to avoid a large tax increase.

But proponents have missed one key fact: this referendum would trade a tax increase for a revenue drop. Tax specialist Michelle Cantrell explained on her blog that because so much of companies’ profits come from intangible property, and some of that property is already taxed, this referendum would drain “tens of millions” from the state’s tax revenue — money that funds education, police, medical and other vital services.

Our View: Think before you vote on these referendums — they matter.

In addition to selecting a president and various state and local officials this November, Oklahomans will have a chance to vote on six state questions. These questions cover everything from tax reform to parole issues to the ever-controversial affirmative action.

We’ve described five of them and offered voting suggestions on each. The sixth state question, proposing a ban on affirmative action programs, will be the subject of Thursday’s editorial.

This ballot initiative would abolish the Oklahoma Department of Human Services and the Commission of Human Services. In its place, the state Legislature could create a new agency to administer laws providing for the care of “the aged and the needy.”

However, if it passes, only the Legislature and the people (through petition for ballot initiatives) would be able to create rules or policies regarding dispensation of welfare or other programs for vulnerable Oklahomans.

Certain programs administered by the Department of Human Services have been accused of serious problems with poor management, abuse and inefficiency. But dissolving the entire agency is not the solution.

There is a reason officials are put in charge of administering these programs. If every policy decision must be made by the Legislature or by a vote of the people, every minor change will become a hassle up for debate.

This is an inefficient proposal and puts decisions in the hands of those who know very little about the best ways to run these programs.

This initiative would give the Oklahoma Water Resources Board the ability to issue bonds to create a reserve fund. This fund would support certain funding programs that help communities build infrastructure for drinking water and waste removal.

Opponents have argued that these bonds — which could represent up to $300 million of debt — represent an unacceptable risk in the current economic climate. But the reserve fund would only be used to pay off debt from these programs that increase access to clean water and only after all other resources had been used.

Given the Water Resources Board’s good track record of paying off its obligations, it is unlikely many such bonds would be issued. This initiative would simply give the state a tool to use to keep these essential programs running in emergency situations.

Property taxes are assessed based on several factors, one of which is the cash value of the property. Changes to communties can result in large changes to the cash value of some properties from year to year.

In order to avoid large increases in property tax from one year to the next, Oklahoma currently caps such increases at 5 percent of the cash value in any year.

This question would lower that cap to 3 percent, providing additional protection and relief for Oklahomans during this time of economic uncertainty.

It’s true this may result in certain tax inequalities, where one family is paying less in taxes than a family with property of the same value. But it’s more important to protect Oklahomans from drastic tax increases during this recession.

SQ 762 — Gov. in the Parole Process Amendment

Legislature-written questions almost on the ballot

Under current law, the governor must approve all parole decisions made by the Pardon and Parole Board. This referendum would remove the governor from the process for those cases involving most nonviolent offenses.

The members of the Parole Board are not elected, so the governor represents the people’s say in the parole process. She is the one Oklahomans can hold accountable for these decisions.

But having the governor involved in every case takes up valuable time, lengthening the parole decision process and taking the governor away from other important business. In order to balance these two concerns, this proposal keeps the governor in the process for cases involving violent offenses but allows the Parole Board to do its job without a babysitter for nonviolent cases.

• To prohibit the enforcement of foreign laws in state courtrooms.• To restrict lawmakers from using redistricting to draw district lines

that favor any political party, incumbent or challenger.• To have the Legislature meet only every other year.• To allow the purchase of wine in grocery stores.• To give law enforcement officers more authority to check the

immigration status of stopped drivers.• To create a tax on violent video games, the revenue from which

would benefit education.• To determine whether state officials can keep their position while

in active military service.• To define “personhood” as beginning at the moment of biological

development.

From now until Nov. 6, The Daily will editorialize about a different aspect of the elections each Wednesday. These editorials will cover presidential, federal, state and local elections, as well as ballot questions and voting issues.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2012

Constructive, wonderful changes could be in the offi ng for you in the year ahead, especially where your social life is concerned. Your involvements with both family and friends will yield a number of valuable contacts.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Even if this is not your day off, your energies are best suited toward pursuits that are fun or social in nature rather than related to work.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Provided you can act independently, you could be luckier than usual where your material affairs are concerned. Try not to let yourself get hampered with a tagalong.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If you truly believe that your plans are superior to those of your colleagues, press forward alone. Don’t let anybody hold you back.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your material aspects look better than usual, provided you’re enterprising and resourceful. If you have something in mind that you believe would add to your resources, give it a try.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Try to do something fun with friends who are optimistic and hopeful, if you can. Keeping company with stimulating companions will bring out your more attractive qualities.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Don’t talk about your intentions prematurely, since

what you say could end up being counterproductive. Go about doing what needs doing and let the results speak for themselves.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Use your wonderful gift of expression in a manner that captures the imagination of potential allies, especially when the subject involves your latest interests.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A critical achievement is possible, but only if you narrow your focus. Additionally, be sure to acknowledge those who help you fulfi ll your aims.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You’re a good team player to begin with, but you may soon fi nd an ally who will be exceptionally valuable. This partnership could produce something special for all concerned.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A substantial amount of your time is likely to be spent on helping others sort out their problems. Fortunately, it won’t be the kind of task that you’ll resent doing.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If there’s something important that you want to work out with an important client, associate or friend, try to do so in an environment convivial to both parties.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You’ll be most successful working on some important matters that you’re anxious to fi nalize, so put off everything else and get right on them. A few can be done simultaneously.

ILLUSTRATION BY KINGSLEY BURNS/THE DAILY

A student ticket to this weekend’s OU-Notre Dame game is a hot item around campus. The tickets are going for as much as $500 according to ticket sale site StubHub.com. But missing out on experiencing the momentous occasion isn’t nearly worth the money.

Alright, guys, I can only take so much.

As each Saturday approaches, my Facebook news feed and Twitter timeline become crowded with students selling their tickets to football games. And that’s fine.

It’s your ticket (even though, let’s be honest, you probably charged it to your Bursar and made your parents pay for it); you can do what you want with it.

I understand not every student who attends OU is a sports fanatic; I understand not everyone here was raised on Sooner football; and, as a “poor college kid,” I understand the convenience of having a little extra cash in your pocket for the weekends.

Some students are going to sell their tickets. I can accept that.

But I can’t accept any student in his or her right mind selling away a seat inside Oklahoma Memorial Stadium on Saturday.

It’s blasphemy. You just can’t do it.

You’ll be missing the experience of a lifetime, and I’m not exaggerating or speaking in hyperbole. I’m dead serious.

This isn’t a game against a storied rival that symbolized the resurrection of a

program after a decade-long slump (Nebraska in 2000).

It isn’t a grudge match against a program that prevented the Sooners from winning two more national championships in the 1980s (Miami in 2007).

And it isn’t a teacher-meets-pupil faceoff for conference supremacy (Texas Tech in 2008).

This is Notre-freaking-Dame.

Not to downplay the significance of those other momentous games and what they’ve meant to the Stoops era of Sooner football, but this is different.

Here at OU, football is king. It’s the trademark by which this school is known, and like it or not, its success is what keeps it afloat.

There are only a handful of schools around the country like this, and Notre Dame is one of them. In fact, it is THE football school.

Notre Dame is to college football what Kentucky is to college basketball, the Yankees are to baseball and the Celtics are to the NBA.

Just look at the history: 96 All-Americans, 11 consensus national championships and seven Heisman winners, according to Notre Dame’s 2012 football media guide.

Have you ever had an old relative or family friend describe a game to you from some year decades before you were born when OU played whatever team and how it was the loudest, rowdiest game ever, and they’ll never forget it?

This is that game.This game will provide the

watermark for every other sporting event — not just football — you attend for the

rest of your life.Have you ever

experienced in person what millions across the country are watching on TV? Have you ever been surrounded by so much noise you couldn’t hear yourself think? Have you ever danced to House of Pain’s “Jump Around” with 85,000 people?

You will Saturday.No matter what the

outcome, you’re going to remember this game for the rest of your life. Are you willing to sell away that experience?

I hope not.

The School of Art and Art History will present an opening reception for FISH 2012 at 6 p.m. Thursday to showcase multiple artists’ visuals and depictions about overharvesting fish and fish culture.

R ay T ro l l , o n e o f t h e featured artists, said fish is a great topic for an exhibition. Troll, who lives in Alaska, said there are some good s t o r i e s b u t m o s t l y b a d stories when it comes to overharvesting fish.

“In Alaska, we’ve seemed to have gotten a handle on it,” Troll said.

T r o l l g r e w u p i n t h e Midwest, but said he longed for the ocean.

“ E v e n w h e n I w a s a kid, fish showed up in my artwork,” he said.

In 1983, he moved to Alaska, where he became a fishmonger.

C h r i s t i n e F o e r s t e r, another featured artist, said in a phone interview that it was very exciting for her to see an exhibition dedicated to fish.

Foerster raises tilapia, which she says is her way of holding true to the message of raising sustainable food.

S h e s a i d h e r a r t i s usually installations that encourage multiple levels of participation from the public.

Cedar Marie, a professor in the School of Art and Art History, is responsible for putting together the exhibition.

“ We s t r i v e t o e x p o s e o u r s t u d e n t s a n d t h e community to interesting and compelling ideas with art,” she said in an email. “I chose to curate an art show on fish because it was an

opportunity to expand the lens of contemporary art practice and culture using a topic that most everyone is familiar with.”

Marie also said watching her students eat junk food for breakfast inspired her to create this exhibit.

“The artists chosen for the exhibition offer a compelling range of perspectives on the

culture of fishing, use fish or fishing as a metaphor f o r o t h e r c u l t u r a l o r environmental concerns,” Marie said. “The pieces chosen are pieces that I found to have interesting c o n n e c t i o n s o r r e v e a l disconnections that help to tell a story about one of the planet’s most diminishing food resources.”

Marie said the artists and their messages range from Oklahoma artist Donald Longcrier depicting water management to Foerster’s farm-to-table interactive approach.

“ T h e a r t w o r k i n t h e exhibition include sculpture, painting, video and good old-fashioned storytelling, among other media,” Marie said.

Foerster said it is becoming a trend for artists to take environmental problems, such as fish overharvesting, and create exhibitions to raise awareness.

Students,Have you ever wondered how your college consolidated and program fees or college technology fees are being u� lized? Here is your opportunity.

The Offi ce of the Senior Vice President & Provost and the UOSA President are pleased to provide a master list of mee� ngs the Norman Campus Deans have scheduled to discuss the FY12 expenditure of course and college fees including the college technology and college consolidated and program fees, their FY13 budget plans for this revenue and any proposals for fee increases for FY14.

These revenues are used within each degree gran� ng-college to provide the kinds of specifi c in-struc� onal materials, technology, instructors needed to best deliver the degree programs to the students within each college.

These mee� ngs are a great opportunity to review the wonderful impact this revenue has within each college. Plan on a� ending your Dean’s mee� ng.
