Kycker, left, of the 2:00-5:00 Domination and Anthony of the 12:00-2:00 show on the campus radio station, K S S U 91.9. Both have words of wisdom to share with their listeners. Kycker says, "The road goes on forever and the party never ends." Anthony adds, "Objects in picture are larger than they appear." You can hear these two characters and many more on Power 92. The request line is 745-7483. In a large room in the Morrison Building, filled with an aura of happiness and goodness, she sits at her desk diligently working on ways to better the lives of those students majoring in education at Southeastern Oklah o m a State University. The music playing in the background blankets the room in a cotton-soft feeling of security while snap shots scattered neatly around the room give the office a sense of serenity like a rainbow after a rainstorm. It is here that Cheryl Jackson gives forth her dedication and devotion to all students w h o trod on the campus of a thousand magnolias. Cheryl comes to work everyday with ambition to help each student that crosses her path with a smile that gleams brighter than the sun and a positive outlook that can bring a wilted flower back to life. "Every student is here for a reason, and it is to succeed," Jackson said. "I believe that each student can leave Southeastern with a feeling of T can' to take with them into the real world." With all the' people that she helps on a dayto-day basis, Jackson prides herself in influencing those certain students w h o struggle with school. "Students w h o are self-drive will survive," Jackson said. "They need help getting started, and that is what w e do. However, there are other students w h o are intelligent, but just have a hard time dealing with the problems and pressures of college life. If I can push them just a little bit to keep them going, it is all worth it, and that's the student I can influence the most." Dedicated to fulfilling the needs of the students, Jackson opens her office to anyone in need of anything— even the smallest of requests. Whether it is paperclip needed for the term paper, a couple of copies that were forgotten to be made for classroom discussion, or even just some- one to talk to for a stress relieving conversation, Jackson not only offers the capabilities of her office, but also her deep concern that is remindful of a mother's touch. "I want any student to feel that they can come and ask m e for anything whether they are in the Teacher's Education Program or not," Jackson said. "I feel that this oW'wc can be much more accommodating than a larger university and that is what seis us apart from them." Not only does Jackson possess a wonderful helping attitude toward students, she wholeheartedly believes in the Golden Rule: D o unto others as you would have them do unto you. She practices everyday in treating people in a way that creates a reciprocal relationship of honesty and good- See Heart page 3 2 FRIDAY, JUNE 22, 2001 THE SOUTHEASTERN Bring On the M a j or Pain Disgraceful Anonymity By Shawn Barnes The Technician Kami Allen H Y P E R , history, public relations, broadcasting. was pretty cut and dry.

N.C. - The body of Precious Doe was found on April 28 in Kansas City. M o . Her decapitated head was found M a y 1. Police still do not know her real name or w h o murdered her. Police are hypothesizing that Precious is only 3 or 4 years old. H o w is it possible that no one knows w h o Precious is? Are there no grandparents out there who haven't spoken with their grandchild in the last month and a half? Where are her aunts, uncles and cousins? W h y haven't they spoken up? Where are the neighbors, day-care workers and ministers w h o have witnessed portions of this child's short life? With all the time that has passed and lack of leads, police are speculating that Precious' parents are dead, involved in the murder, or that Precious is not from the Kansas City area. Then again, it shouldn't matter where Precious is from. The media is a powerful tool — Precious Doe could be a household name. Precious' computergenerated photo could be on your mind right now. Could, should, but probably isn't. I really and truly hate to play the race card, but perhaps it is warranted. Could it be that because Precious is an African-American child her case is not deemed as important to the media? Five years later. I can still picture Jon-Benet Ramsey's painted face and big blonde hair in m y mind. Upon the tragic death of the now-famous beauty queen, media coverage was out of control. The Ramsey case was the lead story on the news night after night. The entire nation embraced the tragedy: there were countless news specials to prove it. Jon-Benet's face can still be seen in your local grocers' checkout line. A n d if you haven't gotten enough of 5-year-old girls going on 30, check out the recent H B O special "Living Dolls: The Making of a Child Beauty Queen." I first learned about Precious just the other night while watching B E T news. I was appalled for two main reasons: I was shocked that the media had not informed m e of this brutal murder back in April, or even in May. I think I watch the news regularly — I even read the top news stories on the Internet. H o w did a story of this importance pass m e by? M y roommate had never heard of Precious, nor had anyone in the office where I work. Secondly. I have a 4-year-old niece for w h o m I would do anything. I know just how much life. energy and potential a preschooler can possess. I know that children deserve love, attention — the best. Precious deserved the best life possible. N o w . after her death she deser\ es to be recognized as w ho she really is. She deserves to be remembered with a headstone bearing her name, and she deserves to have her killer or killers brought to justice. What is w rong w ith the nation when a child is brutally killed and left unidentified' Violence is entirel) too commonplace. The people of Kansas City have rallied together to find the identity of this child. Kansas City can't do it alone. The media have failed Precious D o e terribly. N o w it's uptous a^ indh iduals to spread the word about the death of little Precious Doe. identify her and bring the responsible party to justice.

Floods destroy medical research in Texas, thousands of animals lost By Michael Taylor Daily Texas (U-WIRE) AUSTIN. Texas -- Health researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston are lamenting the loss of thousands of laboratory animals and years of research work in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Allsion. Thousands of laboratory animals died Saturday when a Hash Hood filled the basement facilities of the medical school in the Texas Medical Center district, knocking out the power and destroying millions of dollars worth of equipment. President George W . Bush declared Southeast Texas a disaster area June 9 due to widespread Hooding that has caused at least 20 deaths and more than $1 billion in property damage. About 35.000 animals died at T M C institutions, one of (he world's largest medical complexes. The T M C is also home of the U T M D Anderson Cancer Center and the genome and molecular medicine research going on here." the Baylor College of Medicine. Most of the 30.000 animals lost at the Baylor facility Transgenic mice are genetically engineered \\ ith D N A and the 4.700 lost at U T Health Science Center were from another species. Bates said that the basements throughout the Texas rodents. A n undetermined number were larger animals Medical Center are used to store importanl items such like dogs, pigs and monkeys, said David Bates, director as records, computers and medical equipment worth of public affairs for the U T Health Science Center. Bates said the rain fell too quickly for any evacuation millions of dollars. The last time any significant amounl plans, which, under ideal circumstances, would lake as of water entered the basements in the complex was 1976. long as six hours to complete. "Throughout the T M C . important things that you "I think w e can put it into the category of a cataslrophic act of God." Bates said. "This was a very want to keep safe and relativelj inaccessible are in unique and strange storm in the way il moved through basements," Bales said. Dr. James Guckian. U T System vice chancellor for the area." For individual researchers, the cost might best be health affairs, said lhai part of the loss will continue to calculated in the number of years they had dedicated to be felt for years. "It's devastating." Guckian said. "Not onl\ is there their projects. "Basically everybody just has to start from scratch," loss to research information and loss oi data, it's going Bales said. "Many of the mice are literally irreplaceable to be very costly in terms of time, a loss that can never because they're transgenic mice thai have been part of be recovered." Ryan Dilbert, a radio-television-film junior and a member ol the I T Students Against Cruelty to Animals, said that although he is against laboratory testing oj animals, he looks at the deaths of the animals at T M C .IN an accident. "It's unfortunate but not any more than if it happened in .i zoo," Dilbert said. "I mean, what could they do?" Dilberl said S A C A supports finding alternatives to animal testing. U T Health Science Center-Houston remained closed Wednesday due to continued lack o\ pow er. Access to the ground floor and the basement ha\ e been restricted. Bates said u is still unknown when the lower floors will be functioning again. He added that the basement will need major repairs. "The damage is so extensive that to rebuild you'd have to gut and start o\ er an) w a\," Bates said. The Texas Medical Center served nearl) 5 million patients in 1999 and employs nearlj 55.000 people in the facilities housed there. Campus Crime Capers S u m m e r is a fantastic time of the year, and w e at the Campus Police Department, are extremely pleased to see so many students taking summer classes. A s w e consider methods to ensure that each of you stay safe and sound, and crime free. W e would like to offer a few suggestions. While cruising around campus with your top down, or windows rolled down, listening to a little Z Z Top (that gives away m y age), make sure that when you park your car. you secure all of your possessions. There is no bigger temptation to a criminal than walking past an open vehicle with a purse, wallet, or other valuable setting on the seat unattended. Most crimes are crimes of opportunity, thus Y O U are ihe most important deterrent lo crime. Put the odds of not being a victim in your favor by always being mindful of your property. W e would also like to make everyone aware that the campus police will provide some to escort anyone feeling uneasy about going to their vehicle or across campus. W e also encourage anyone w h o sees a possible crime being committed or any unsafe condition to report these to the campus police department as soon as possible. Also. S O S U does not allow weapons or alcohol on campus, regardless of a person's age. Therefore, campus police can and will enforce this and other criminal and traffic laws. W e do this not to act as watchdogs, but to provide a safe and pleasant environment for the campus community. The S O S U P D is committed lo doing anything w e can to make the students time on our campus as enjoyable an experience as possible. It is because of I his goal that w e offer assistance with cars needing a jumpstart, with keys locked in vehicles, etc. to Southeastern students. Feel free to stop by our office at anytime.

CD Review G o on, have a Hissyfit Lewis and Clark (Be careful, they 've got bite) June 23 & 24 at 2 p.m. & 7p.m. By Patricia Geghali Columbia Daily Spectator June 22 at 7 p.m. Fine Arts Little Theatre (U-WIRE) NEW YORK --1 first found The Hissyfits entirely by accident when I stumbled into their show during the C M J Music Festival last fall. It was a fortunate experience for all involved, as I bought their E P and got hooked on the catchy riffs and solid rhythms, and they gained some unsuspecting fans. O n the Fourth of July they will unleash their first full-length album, and sure enough, it is bound to live up to its revolutionary release date. Guitarist Princess proclaimed that this new album. Letters From Frank, is "darker and more developed" than their earlier recordings, but it maintains and expands the classic Hissyfits feel -- bass, drums, guitar, and three sets of female vocals - more than 12 fully established tracks of headbopping action. It's tight-wound punk rock with a sweet melodic edge as performed by three hardcore w o m e n w h o can actually all sing on key. If Blondie and Hole joined up with Weezer and the Ramones to form a three-piece band they might come close to the driving rhythms and floating harmonies of this album. Bassist Fon-Lin and Columbia's o w n drummer P-Girl round out the threesome. w h o seem to be dealing quite well with Othello ... a poetic tragedy July 13 & 20 at 8 p.m. July 22 at 2 p.m. Montgomery Auditorium Pirates of Penzance ... a swash-buckling musical July 14, 19, 25 at 8 p.m. July 15 at 2 p.m. Montgomery Auditorium the possibility of becoming the Next Big Thing. The group officially formed in '96 when Princess put out an ad for musicians and they've been going strong ever since. playing in their N e w York hometown as well as all over the country. I'm not the only one w h o has been bitten by the Hissyfit bug; they have been reviewed in all kinds of magazines and played on radio stations across the United States. including K R O C K , and even opened for The Muffs and played on the Warped Tour last summer. They recently signed with Top Quality Rock and Roll and will soon be departing on their national summer tour, riding in P-Girl's mother's "soccer-mom green Ford Explorer" and coming to a town near you. The amazing dedication that they show to the band is amplified by the fact that all three members of the group have "day jobs." which have been kind enough to allow them time off to tour. In the way that many small groups have of forming random fan bases. The Hissyfits have been told that they are "big in Germany" despite never having toured there and have made almost $80 off of MP3.com, an amazing feat for only having two songs on the site and offering the songs on their o w n website as well. Despite the fact that they are one of a comparatively small number of bands with all female members and that they play many women-oriented shows such as Ladyfest, The Hissyfits don't like to place the fact that they are w o m e n before the fact that they are musicians. The songs on the album range from their first single "Something Wrong" with its refrain of "there must be something wrong with m e " to "Superstar" with its message "I wanna be a superstar/1 don't wanna fade away" all the way to "911" with its great line about relationships, "If I came to you for comfort/ would you go and call the cops on me." and even though it is obvious that m a n y of the songs were written by w o m e n , they don't alienate m e n like some "chick rock" does. It's just like h o w most songs are obviously written by m e n , but m a n y w o m e n still like them. The unifying part of this album is that the tracks all successfully maintain the strange aura created by having a diverse range of vocal tracks on top of a solid punk rhythm section, not the fact that the band members are all women. The Hissyfits are like no band I've ever heard before; the closest thing I can think of is the first album by The Raincoats from way back in the early '80s, but this has far more punch. Letters From Frank is sure to generate more positive press for them, so check them out on tour or at www.hissyfits.com before everyone else does. You'll feel cool for having heard of them first.
