OU students start campaign to increase awareness of fight against prostate cancer

MEGHAN WHITINGNews Reporter@heyitsmeghanw

Students of Lindsey + Asp Advertising and Public Relations Agency are holding a No-Shave November cam-paign to raise awareness for prostate cancer — an issue that hits them close to home.

Early in the planning stages of the agency’s campaign for the awareness event, faculty adviser Robert “Pritch” Pritchard announced to the team that he had been diag-nosed with prostate cancer last summer, Pritchard said.

“I wanted to keep it low-key and not let it define me,” Pritchard said. “But I thought it would be appropriate to share, and I’ve been humbled with the amount of support this whole campaign is getting.”

The Lindsey + Asp team put a lot of planning into various events for No-Shave November, Pritchard said.

OU and the History Channel have teamed up to offer an online course through Janux, according to a press release.

Steve Gillon, an OU professor and a History Channel scholar-in-residence will teach the course, titled “United States 1865 to the Present,” according to the press release. The course counts for three credit hours, and will last 16 weeks starting Jan. 12, according to the press release.

WHY WE’RE JOINING A LAWSUIT AGAINST OU

SEE MOVEMBER PAGE 2SEE JANUX PAGE 2

OUR VIEW: We’re turning to the courts to define the limitations of the Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act.

Today, The Oklahoma Daily is suing OU for withholding records that we believe are public under the Oklahoma Open Records Act. We hope this lawsuit will serve as a precedent for colleges and universities where administrators are misinter-preting an important federal law which, in turn, keeps infor-mation from the public.

The Oklahoma Open Records Act was created to provide citizens access to information about the government. The act states, “ … People are vested with the inherent right to know and be fully informed about their government.”

Because OU is a public university funded in part — albeit small — by the state government, many of OU’s records are open to the public. Journalists use open records as a reporting tool for stories, but anybody can request records through the OU Open Records Office.

For example, we used open records to investigate com-plaints about former Pride of Oklahoma director Justin Stolarik in fall 2013. Through the Open Records Office, we obtained letters about the band’s leadership that members had sent to the President’s Action Line. Since members were hesitant to voice their complaints to The Daily for fear of jeop-ardizing their positions in the band, the records provided in-sight into their concerns.

RENOVATION

Farmer Street closes to add outdoor living room New green space to be added outside of Headington Hall

TONY RAGLE/THE DAILY

Farmer street, located South of Headngton Hall between Jenkins and George Avenues, was closed per-manently last Friday. The new space was confirmed to be the site for future residential colleges and an outdoor living room.

DAISY CREAGERNews Reporter

Farmer Street, the street south of Headington Hall be-tween Jenkins Avenue and George Avenue, closed for good on Friday.

The street was closed to join the green spaces on ei-ther side of it, OU press secre-tary Corbin Wallace said.

“This area will become an outdoor living room near Headington Hall and the fu-ture residential colleges, with the addition of trees, plants, picnic tables and benches,” Facilities Management direc-tor Brian Ellis said.

For students who live at Headington, parking and building access is a con-cern, said Lauren Millender, marketing and supply chain management freshman.

“If someone’s dropping me off at Headington, they do it on that road,” Millender said. “Also, people use that road all the time, so it might be inconvenient.”

Although a few feet of park-ing space along the road will be lost, connecting the side-walks between Farmer Street

and Lincoln Avenue will en-hance access to the parking lot south of Headington Hall, and the campus will benefit overall, Ellis said.

“Campus aesthetics are extremely important for the overall educational ex-perience for our students,”

Ellis said. “The project will transform the area south of Headington Hall into an area that students, family mem-bers and visitors can enjoy.”

Plans for extending the green space have been in place since the acquisition of the property, Ellis said.

Funds for the construction come from internal Facilities Management revenue, Ellis said.

OU United Way extends donation deadlineCHARITY

Members of OU support community, donate to local philanthropy campaign

DANIELLE WIERENGANews Reporter @weirdenga

Students and faculty looking for a way to give back to the Norman community will have until Dec. 1 to do so, thanks to an extended deadline for OU’s United Way campaign.

OU’s United Way campaign co-chairs Kelvin Droegemeier, Melany Dickens-Ray and Amy Tougas decided to dedicate this year’s drive to the theme, “yOU Helping Many,” to reflect OU’s family atmosphere, according to a press release sent by Droegemeier.

“The idea is you as an individual can help many, many, people through giving,” Droegemeier said.

The campaign, which began Aug. 18, has reached 81 per-cent of its final goal of $215,000, according to OU’s United Way campaign web page.

The campaign accepts donations from students, teachers, staff and other interested individuals, and 85 percent of the proceeds go toward United Way of Norman’s philanthropy, Droegemeier said. The remaining 15 percent goes toward maintaining the nonprofit organization and its agencies, Droegemeier said.

The $215,000 OU’s United Way campaign hopes to collect

will make up about 10 percent of United Way of Norman’s annual fundraising goal, Droegemeier said.

United Way of Norman helps support over 40 programs across 26 different agencies based in Norman and Noble, Droegemeier said.

OU’s donation campaign raises money to donate to pro-grams that support education, income stability, health and safety, and independence, Droegemeier said.

Faculty and staff can donate via ePledge through the OU United Way website, Droegemeier said. Students can use the newly introduced text donation system to give by texting OUUW to 41444, Droegemeier said.

Although Droegemeier understands that students have limited financial means, gifts of as little as $5 can make a dif-ference, he said.

“It really adds up very, very fast,” Droegemeier said.Some of the organizations that OU United Way’s include

Girl Scouts of Western Oklahoma, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Oklahoma, Food and Shelter Inc. and ABLE, a vocational program for adults with developmental disabilities.

Although the deadline for OU’s campaign is Dec. 1, United Way of Norman will accept donations at any time throughout the year, Droegemeier said.

MOVEMBER: Campaign has end goal of $5,000 Continued from page 1

Some events are surpris-es, but students will see clues around campus this month for what Lindsey + Asp is up to, Pritchard said.

Lindsey + Asp’s overarch-ing campaign slogan is “For the Boys,” Pritchard said.

The agency will also be giv-ing out foam fingers that will display their other slogan: “We’re giving prostate cancer the finger,” Pritchard said.

The organization is trying to convince celebrities to do video selfies for the cam-paign, Pritchard said. They are trying to get members of the country music industry and public relations and ad-vertising agencies to make videos saying they support Lindsey + Asp in “giving prostate cancer the finger,” Pritchard said.

In addition to various events meant to raise aware-ness for prostate cancer, Lindsey + Asp is raising money for the cause, pub-lic relations senior Kate Brannen said.

YA JIN/THE DAILY

Broadcasting and electronic media senior Melanie Foster and adver-stising seniors Amanda Santalucia, Trevor Morse and Cameron Smith work in the Lindsey + Asp office Tuesday afternoon. Lindsey + Asp is raising money to help fight prostate cancer this November.

The advertising agency has placed 12 donation boxes all around Campus Corner and classroom buildings, Brannen said.

The agency will hold a benefit night at Diamond Dawgs from 5 to 8 p.m. Nov. 19, with 10 percent of the cost of purchases donated direct-ly to prostate and testicular cancer research, Brannen said.

At the end of the month, Lindsey + Asp will make a one-minute video of all the campaign events to send in to the Today Show’s Campus Challenge, Pritchard said.

To help the cause, students can donate as a member of the Lindsey + Asp team on-line. The team has already raised over $1,200, according to the website.

“We don’t have a goal set, but I’d like to reach $5,000,” Pritchard said. “I’m already extremely gratified with the campaign, but I would be ec-static if we raised that much.”

Meghan Whiting [email protected]

In addition to the text, discussion and social com-ponents of all Janux classes, this history course will in-clude lectures with footage from the History Channel, Yarbrough said in an email.

“It’s the only course of its kind that combines the aca-demic rigor of a university course with the video footage available from a television network,” Yarbrough said in an email.

Because of the History Channel’s involvement, people who have created widely-watched shows and documen-taries have now helped design an OU course, OU profes-sor Steve Gillon said in an email. Gillon is teaching the course.

The course is available to college students and non-stu-dents alike. The non-credit course costs $250 and the for-credit course costs $500, according to the course website.

For OU students paying flat rate tuition, the course will cost $110.40 in fees, according to the course’s web page.

The course designed to attract a wide array of students, whether they are in college or just interested in history, Gillon said.

“I’m looking forward to teaching students from around the world, to sharing with them my passion for history and for allowing them to participate in a global conversa-tion with their peers about issues central to understand-ing American history,” Gillon said.

Enrollment for the course began Oct. 28, and so far about 40 people have enrolled, Yarbrough said. Because it is still early, she expects enrollment to increase though the middle of January, she said.

The course is listed as LSTD 1153 section 500 on Ozone, according to the course’s web page.

The 25-student section of the course offered on Ozone is currently filled. However, faculty are considering adding another section that will fit 25 more students, Yarbrough said.

The Oklahoma volleyball team is prepared to face Iowa State today and archenemy Texas on Saturday at McCasland Field House in an attempt to add two more wins to its résumé.

Iowa State handed the Sooners a 3-1 loss when the teams squared off on Oct. 12 in Ames, Iowa. In order to make sure that does not happen again, coach Santiago Restrepo said the Sooners need to pass the ball to get better kill looks.

“We’ve got to give Julia [Doyle] better options to pass to get more one-on-one matchups,” he said. “And we’ve got to convert them into more kills.”

Sophomore outside hitter Madison Ward added to Restrepo’s notion of being more offensive. Iowa State to-taled 69 kills against the Sooners in their first meeting, and Ward said that the key to winning would be to out-kill them.

“We’ve just got to stick to our game,” Ward said. “It’s all about playing with confidence and doing what we can do.”

As for the Longhorns, the Sooners pulled off a mighty 3-0 upset in Austin in their previous meeting on October 25. The Longhorns led in kills, hitting percentage and digs, but the Sooners got the important points needed to seal the win.

Junior outside hitter Kierra Holst said that even though last time around she had the hot hand with 16 kills, it could be anyone’s turn to step up on Saturday.

“It will just depend on who’s on fire that day,” she said. “I’d love for it to be me, but if someone else can step up and be great, we’ll give them every chance to do that.”

Restrepo added that if someone is hot they will give that person the ball, but that they also need to distribute evenly to keep the Longhorns on their toes.

“I think when we can distribute our offense to all of our hitters, we are a much better team,” he said. “We’re going to have to do that if we want to beat Texas.”

The Sooners face the Cyclones at 7 p.m. today and the Longhorns at 7 p.m. on Saturday. Both matches are at McCasland Field House.

Athletes carry on family name

Former football stars’ daughters get own athletic fame

RYAN KINGSports Reporter @Ryan_King_Now

Some people are known for different things — maybe it’s a physical characteristic, a special talent or maybe something as insignificant as a last name.

But some names, espe-cially in Oklahoma, carry more weight than others — like Bosworth and Migliazzo. Brian Bosworth and Paul Migliazzo were starting linebackers on OU’s 1985 National Championship football team.

The Boz was a two-time All-American and the only two-time Butkus award win-ner, given to the best line-backer in the nation.

These names have resur-faced at OU because each has a daughter who cur-rently plays for the Sooner vol le ybal l team. Taylor Migliazzo, junior defen-sive specialist, and Hayley Bosworth, freshman defen-sive specialist, both decided to come to Oklahoma just like their fathers, but not for the same reasons.

“Originally, I wasn’t even looking at OU because I

wanted to go off and be my own person and I knew if I came here, well, I am my father’s daughter after all,” Bosworth said.

“Both of my parents and my grandparents went here, and that ended up meaning more to me than I expected it to,” she added.

Migliazzo had a different reasoning for why she chose OU.

“Neither of my parents ever pushed coming here,” she said. “I always grew up coming to games and around OU, so really, I was just comfortable with this university.”

Although both women didn’t pick OU specifical-ly because of their dads, their names bring familiar-ity when people meet them for the first time. But they’re here not just to further their last name, but also to make

an impact with their first.“It is cool when someone

says, ‘Hey, I knew your dad,’ or, ‘Cool, he played football here,’ but I never feel like I’m not good enough just because he played here,” Migliazzo said.

Bosworth feels like she is different enough from her dad to be able to leave her own mark at OU.

“It is a little frustrating sometimes, walking around and someone says, ‘Hey, Little Boz,’ and I’m like, ‘My name is Hayley,’” she said. “But I am very different from my dad.”

College football is taken very seriously at OU, but people don’t often see how much time and effort stu-dent-athletes put into other sports. Migliazzo said her team works just as hard as others do.

Bosworth feels strongly about the inaccurate rep-resentation that volleyball is easier than other college sports.

“I get in fights with my football friends all the time,” she said. “They are always like, ‘Our sport is the hardest sport in the world,’ and I’m like, ‘Trust me, it’s not.’”

“My dad even sometimes gets in on it,” Bosworth said. “I’m like, no, you don’t know. I’m sore, let’s just leave it at that.”

E v e n t h o u g h t h e Migliazzo and Bosworth legacies are already set at OU, Taylor and Hayley are excited to both further their family traditions and start their own.

“Obviously my dad is well-known around OU, so it is definitely going to be hard to make my own leg-acy,” Bosworth said. “But I am going to continue to work hard and hopeful-ly make some really close friends.”
