In consideration of the state’s
financial condition, one is easily
led to believe that an increase
would be helpful. But let’s not
forget there already have been
four increases of 10 percent each
over the last five years.

sequence of a teenage girl, Tina (Amanda Wyss),
stalked by a killer with sharp knives for fingernails.
Unknown to her, Roy, her boyfriend, and her best
friend, Nancy (Heather Langenkamp), each had
the same dream.
While her mother is out of town, Tina is killed
by the dream killer The horror that she
experiences that night proves to be a catalyst for a
whole slew of unexplainable events on Elm Street.
When Roy, who the police believed to be the
killer, becomes a victim himself. Nancy sets out to
track the true killer with the help of her reluctant
to-be involved boyfriend.
The ensuing events and especially the ending
will make you sit on the edge of your seat, until the
mystery is solved. Nightmare is definitely a movie
you won’t want to miss.

A
review by Carla Sledge
One killer with knives for fingernails, exciting
graphic details and an imaginative plot all add up to
a Nightmare on Elm Street, a new thriller chiller
out on the movie circuit. Nightmare is a step above
and beyond the past sling of horror films based
around and aimed at teenagers, in that it deals with
the mysteries of dreams.
Director Wes Craven, known for his low budget
films The Hills Have Eyes and The Last House on
the Left, imaginatively breaks the pattern of sex
and gore horror films set by previous movies
Craven must know the phenomenom of why we
dream what we dream has puzzled and fascinated
man throughout time.
The movie opens with the dream (nightmare)

windows. Their pictures were read from the
bottom up, and the congregation could follow the
mass by looking at the pictures.
They also allowed the light of God to filter into
the church, giving it a heavenly atmosphere.
The tapestries on display demonstrate the
ideals of the nobility of the period. The nobleman
in one tapestry rides his horse in the center of a
garden, separated from the peasants by a picket.
This theme is repeated in other tapestries in the
exhibit.
On the second floor are exhibits of manuscripts
and armor. These are both worthwhile to see, and
on a guided tour, one can glean interesting facts
from the tour guide.
The exhibit is beautifully displayed and shows a
variety of works. It would be invaluable for the Art
History student, or even for someone who is
simply interested. It would make an enjoyable
afternoon.

review by Cathy Kaczorowski
Students of Survey of Art History or others who
are planning to take that class are provided with an
excellent opportunity to view examples of
medieval art in its many forms.
Songs of Glory: Medieval Art from 900 1500, is
the latest exhibit at the Oklahoma Museum of Art.
The show began Jan. 22 and will run until April 29.
A major part of the exhibit consists of
sculptures. These were very important to the
medieval way of life. Not only did they serve as
decorations in the churches and cathedrals, but
also as a pictorial narration of the lives of the saints
and stories from the Bible.
In this period, the church was almost the only
literate group. They used this fact to maneuver the
government and military with the support of the
people, most of whom could not read.
Another device to help the common folk
understand the mass was the stained glass

And yet another reason the eminent
arrival of spring break hasn’t aroused
students is because it is only a week long.
Several students on campus
commented on their plans for spring
break Cleaning the house or garage
seemed to be number one on most
agendas. Sleeping and "doing as little as
possible ame in second, and taking a
tup or special class and just hangingout in
general was the third most popular
answer.
All of these ways to unwind are good for
an individual’s wellbeing Spring is a time
when nature sheds her winter cloak and
captivates us with her pastel hues, warm
breezes and sunny days. As nature does
her spring cleaning, so individuals clear
their lives of fuss and clutter.

nap in the middle of spring while his fellow
bears are waking, those people who plan

Lastly, the great board has
once again asked the legislature
to grant them power to raise and
lower the tuition without the
legislature having a direct say in
the matter. Somewhere it is
written that taxation without
representation should be
shunned, and this proposal is
nothing less than allowing a
group of non elected individuals
to levy a tax against a special
group. This proposal is the most
dangerous of all.

Daily Oklahoman.
The recent articles on the
State Board of Regents have
prompted me to point out that
what they are proposing is
actually three separate issues:
tuition increase, the 25 to 75
percent ratio and the ability of
the board to set the tuition
without legislative approval.
by Carla Sledge
Days of endless classes and nights of
tackling steady supplies of homework will
cease for the week of March 23 31. You
would think there would be more
excitement around campus as this time
steadily approaches, but that is not the
case.
One reason many students aren't
excited is because they have assignments
to work on over spring break. Lucky for
them that the Learning Resources Center
will be open over the short holiday. It will
be open from 7:30 a.m. 6 p.m.
weekdays, plus the regular weekend
hours.
Another reason students aren't excited
is because many Oklahoma schools have
already had their spring break, and many
have friends they wanted to visit but were
unable to because the breaks didn’t
coincide.
education? Well, in order to
preserve the ratio, the tuition
must be raised. Conversely,
what happens when the state
allocates less than the previous
year? Tuition for the student
must be reduced. Surely the
regents jest!
