New coordinator of african-american student affairs aims to be a champion and voice for students.
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2015 OCOLLY.COM PAGE 2
For the majority of her first African-American Student Association meeting, Britta-ny Carradine, the new coor-dinator of African American student affairs, spends time sitting on the top row of the Willard 010 auditorium over-looking the proceedings.
Through her cat-eyed glasses, her eyes shift be-tween the action ahead of her and the paper she’s placed on the table where she takes notes — physically and mentally.
“I am always looking for ways to improve things,” said Carradine, who stepped into her position at the beginning of the semester. “So I don’t think I probably got to take in as much as the average person might because I’m kind of looking at things that could be fixed or changed or done better.”
The meeting — which dis-cussed and gave applications for the upcoming Big 12 Conference on Black Student Government, acknowledged graduating seniors, as well as shed light on the recent racial issues at the University of Missouri — was called to order shortly after 7 p.m. in the basement of Willard Hall.
And Carradine noticed.“I don’t ever think you
can be too professional,” she said. “For example, we started the meeting tonight at 7:06, and while it was a good time because we gave people
a few minutes to come in before we started, the most professional thing to do is start on time.”
Carradine’s youthfulness, attention to detail and quest for professionalism has reso-nated well with students who haven’t seen someone in her position the majority of the past two semesters.
“She brings in authentic-ity to the table,” said Tiffany Thurmond, African-Ameri-can Business Student Asso-ciation president.
Carradine also serves as the AABSA adviser in addi-tion to her coordinator role.
“Because throughout any type of gathering, whether it’s a meeting or just going to her office to talk, she always about ‘Make sure you’re authentic with yourself,’” Thurmond said. “Make sure you’re being yourself, make sure you are basically true to yourself and not just doing something you know that is not who you are — doing something you know you’re not suppose to be aspiring, aiming to be.”
Previously serving as the assistant director of student life at Langston University, Carradine expressed one difference of working at the two universities: Her office is a bit less busy in her new place.
“My office is very quiet,” she said, laughing. “And it could be, you know, I don’t know a lot of students yet.
“At Langston, there was always students in my office
all the time. Talking about everything from hair to food to classes to relationship issues, and that’s just the nature of college students in general.”
Carradine plans on chang-ing the quietness, though. She said she hopes that by at-tending other organization’s meetings, she can become a champion for students on campus.
Afro-Am resides over sev-eral smaller umbrella organi-zations such as the Freshmen Action Team and Minority Women’s Association, as well as AABSA, in an effort
to bring together and provide a place of unity for African-American student organiza-tions.
“I’m aware this position has been vacant for a while, and I want to let students know there’s someone in this position and in any way I can help or advocate on behalf of those students or those organizations that I’m here to do so,” she said.
Consistency, stability and support from Carradine’s po-sition are what black student leaders have asked for.
Mauree Turner, a politi-cal science, animal science
and sociology senior who also serves as the Student Government Association’s Multicultural Affairs Chair, has seen four coordinators of African-American affairs in the Office of Multicultural Affairs office since she was a sophomore.
Turner said she would like to see “a sense of a voice and a purpose” given to the black community on campus.
“And I know that might sound a little off,” she said. “But I feel like one reason the black community doesn’t make as many strides as

I want to and I guess the reason you don’t really see movements being being carried out to the effects of, I guess, Mizzou and things like that is because there have been movements made but when they were the faculty kind of stifled those move-ments.”
Turner said she feels as if the university shuts down move-ments in which the black com-munity tries to create a place where they feel as though they belong.
“I’m hoping (Carradine) will help instill a voice in the community,” Turner said. “And help instill purpose and realiz-ing just because one door gets shut, doesn’t mean that another won’t open.”
Thurmond, who’s also the Afro-Am’s head delegate for the Big 12 Conference on Black Student Government, no-ticed Carradine brings a fresh personality in with her as well.
“I would say very exciting and bubbly,” she said of her first impression of Carradine.
“That’s like the first side, and then like the other side is very structured and very like she has great high esteem where you know she’s about her business and you know she’s there to help you, but she’s also not going to let you cut off on any slack,” Thurmond said. “Like she’s going to make sure you’re doing things right and in the right way — not average — but always aiming for your best.”
These qualities help make the transition between serving students at Langston, a histori-cally black college and univer-sity, and making an impact on students at OSU, a predomi-nantly white institution, easier.
“At an HBCU, you wear a lot of hats,” she said. “And I wanted to focus on one spe-cial area or one special group and so when this job became available, … I was like, ‘No, I’m not going to, you know, I don’t want to look at that as an opportunity.’”
The job at OSU became a possibility once again, and Carradine reconsidered her op-position to changing jobs.
“Being able to have a posi-tive impact, to be able to grow those students the same way someone did for me when I was an undergrad is ultimately what made this job really at-tractive,” Carradine said.
Carradine, who received her undergraduate degree from the University of Central Oklahoma and her master’s
degree from the University of Oklahoma, said she is enjoying Stillwater’s atmosphere and feels she has taken on a role that’s right for her.
“Now that I am here, it feels very Southern,” Carradine said. “Like people are very nice, people are always smiling and waving.”
But even being happy in a new place, Carradine’s path hasn’t been straight to higher education. She had a little help stumbling upon her “calling.”
Carradine said her former boyfriend, who was enrolled in the adult and higher educa-tion program at OU, influenced her to pursue a master’s degree in higher education. She said she became fascinated with his projects and course work and knew the area of education was
one she wanted to pursue.After spending more time
around her then-boyfriend’s course load and having al-ready decided her bachelor’s degree in broadcasting and communications wasn’t for her, Carradine realized higher education was her calling and pursued her master’s degree in adult and higher education with an emphasis in student affairs.
“I had probably had feel-ings or thoughts that college was cool because I was super involved in a lot of things, but it never clicked in my mind that I could actually work at a college,” Carradine said. “Like if I wasn’t teaching, I didn’t necessarily see myself work-ing at a college. But then being able to have experienced it with him in that program at OU it
was like, ‘Oh yeah, this is what I’m going to do.’”
Carradine was involved in several organizations during her time at UCO. From being on the homecoming com-mittee, president of the black student association on campus and a part of Greek life among other organizations, Car-radine engaged herself in many leadership roles. She was also socially active, entering and winning Miss Black UCO and Miss Black Oklahoma as well as placing fourth at Miss Black USA.
“Being a first generation college student, I really un-derstood and I knew what a privilege it was for me to be there and so I wanted to do everything possible,” Carradine said.
She said several profes-sionals helped her grow as a person, developing her views on social issues and her phi-losophy regarding collegiate students’ success.
“You can lead students to a college, but there has to be someone to lead them through college,” she said.
Carradine said along with her former boyfriend’s influ-ence, there have been multiple mentors and professionals who have aided her in her journey to becoming an ambassador for students.
“There were a couple of pro-fessionals that I feel because of them I was able to be success-ful in college and going back and working at college institu-tions, it seems like the perfect way to give back to something and to people and a place that gave so much to me,” she said.

The court hear-ing for an Oklahoma State foot-ball player has been continued until 3 p.m. on Jan. 12.
OSU receiver Jhajuan Seales was charged with
operating a motor vehicle while having a blood or breath alcohol content of .08 and transporting an open container of an intoxicating beverage Oct. 28 after he was arrested early Oct. 25 during a traf-fic stop.
Seales appeared in court Oct. 29 with his attorney, Ashley Webb, and pleaded not guilty. About 12:30 a.m., Stillwater police stopped Seales at Univer-sity and Knoblock after he failed to stay in his lane and ran a red light, accord-ing to the police report.
When asked of his home address, Seales was unable to tell the officer.
“It’s by uh ... Colvin,” Seales said. “I just know where it is.”
Also in the car with Seales were two women, later identified as Kera La-trice Thomas and Brianny Inez Butler. Seales told officers he had had one drink.
After administering three sobriety tests, the of-ficer suspected Seales was intoxicated and arrested him. Upon his arrest, Seales asked the officer whether he could “just pay for it,” according to the report.
Then, the officer noticed a cup resting against the passenger seat, containing liquor. The cup belonged to Thomas, and she was also arrested for transport-ing an open container of liquor.
Seales was taken to
Stillwater City Jail where he agreed to take a blood-alcohol level test. The results of the test showed Seales’ BAC was .15.
This is not Seales’
first offense. In October 2014, he was arrested for suspicion of public in-toxication after reportedly falling asleep at the wheel in a Whataburger drive-

Eskimo Joe’s and Still-water Radio gave checks to the Stillwater Medical Center Foundation at a ceremony Tuesday in the Eskimo Joe’s clothes store.
The checks, $73,000 from Eskimo Joe’s and $500 from Stillwater
Radio, go to the Stillwater Strong fund, benefiting victims of the homecom-ing parade crash. The money from Eskimo Joe’s came from sales of Still-water Strong T-shirts.
Scott Petty, SMC Foun-dation executive director, said Student Government Association senators Jac-quelyn Lane and Jeremiah Taylor “led the charge and made a huge impact” de-signing and promoting the T-shirts sold at Eskimo Joe’s and the Oklahoma State Student Union store.
“This sends us a little over $366,000 today,” Petty said. “With a little more coming.”
Eskimo Joe’s CEO
Stan Clark presented the oversized check with Lane and Taylor and said he supported the idea be-cause of the support from SGA, the OSU Alumni Association and the OSU Foundation.
“If everybody’s on-board with this thing, let’s coalesce and see what we can do,” Clark said. “As we heard the vision and knew what they were trying to accomplish, we realized here’s the upside: We’ve got the capacity if this works, really works, we can just fill it in and keep it going.”
Lane said more than 9,000 shirts have been sold, with a few more left
in the Student Union store and at Eskimo Joe’s. She said it started as a small-scale idea, but making the huge donation became the ultimate goal.
“It was obviously much larger than we ever in-tended,” Lane said. “This is currently the largest donation the Stillwater Strong fund has received,
which is great. Over $70,000, that’s an amount of money I can’t quite quantify.”

Star Wars: The Force AwakensReleases Dec. 18
Movies to watch during winter break
Arguably one of the most anticipated films of all
time is almost here. Much of the story is still shrouded in mystery, though the seem-ingly constant barrage of TV spots are reportedly chipping away at that air of mystery. Set 30 years after the events of “Return of the Jedi,” “The Force Awakens” finds heroes new and old fighting against the Empire-inspired First Order.
JoyReleases Dec. 25
Landing just in time for Oscar season, director
David O. Russell’s (“Silver Linings Playbook,” “American Hustle”) latest film re-teams regulars Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro. The film chronicles the true story of Joy Mangano (Lawrence), who, through the invention of the Miracle Mop, becomes the founder of a busi-ness dynasty.
The Hateful Eight Releases Dec. 25
A Dec. 25 release date — albeit a limited one
— couldn’t be more ap-propriate, as a new Quentin Tarantino film often feels like a special gift. Consid-ering the guy writes the most memorable dialogue out there, pitting a group of post-Civil War bounty hunters against one another in a secluded cabin sounds like a dream come true.
The RevenantReleases Jan. 8
Coming off this past year’s Best Picture winner “Bird-
man,” director Alejandro Gonza-lez Inarritu shoots for that Oscar again. “Revenant” was report-edly filmed entirely with natural lighting, which, given how stellar the film looks so far, is ambitious enough. Set in the 1820s, the film follows a frontiersman (Leonardo DiCaprio) as he seeks revenge upon those who left him for dead. With world-class talent such as DiCaprio, as well as a particularly gruff Tom Hardy, “Revenant” has all of the pieces in place to be one of the year’s best.

The Oklahoma State wres-tling team has been called out.
After starting the season at No. 1, the Cowboys lost their second dual of the season Sunday to North Carolina State. The loss also dropped OSU five spots to No. 9 in national rankings.
With a Bedlam matchup Sunday in Norman, unbeaten Kyle Crutchmer is expecting more from his teammates.
“It’s just a sense of pride,” Crutchmer said. “Some of these guys, we really need them to step up. We’ve had some injuries, but you wrestle at Oklahoma State for a reason. There’s guys that should be coming in
and competing a little harder than what they did. I’m not gonna mention any names, but the atmosphere after a loss, I think it’s time to pick things up. The excuse of it’s too early, it’s still early; throw it out the window now.”
Top-ranked 165-pounder Alex Dieringer had the same mentality after Sunday’s loss. Crutchmer and Dieringer, along with 141-pounder Dean Heil are the only Cowboy starters who haven’t lost a match this season. Dieringer managed to pin his opponent in 29 seconds Sunday and Heil posted a 10-8 decision over second-ranked Kevin Jack to solidify Heil’s top ranking in the weight class.
“Me and (Dieringer) talked a bit (Sunday) night,” Crutchmer said. “We have some young guys on this team that still don’t believe that they should be out there. … Me and Alex, we’re gon-na talk to these guys about it. Wrestling here, you have a target on your back. Those
guys came in here (Sunday) fired up. They were fired up about wrestling here.
“They’re coming in here to beat us and we took them for granted. A lot of the guys on our team took their opportu-nity for granted.”
Some Cowboys could receive their opportunity Sunday. Gary Wayne Hard-ing and Anthony Collica are questionable because of in-jury at 133 and 149 pounds,
respectively. Brian Crutch-mer wrestled at 133 pounds against North Carolina State and lost to Jamal Morris 4-0. David Dolan also lost his match to Sam Melikian at 149 pounds. OSU has also had more than one possible starter listed most of the season at multiple weights, including 157 and 184 pounds.
“I think all things are open right now,” coach John Smith said. “We’ll see how the practice goes today and the next couple of days and we will put people on the mat that’s gonna wrestle. I’m in no sense of urgency right now, but I’m definitely in an urgency to send people out that are gonna step out and start wrestling.”
The Cowboys can’t overlook No. 7 Oklahoma on Sunday. The Sooners are perfect this season through
five duals. OU’s most im-pressive victory was a 23-12 win over a top-10 Michigan team on the road Nov. 22. Despite the Sooners’ impres-sive streak, a win is neces-sary for OSU to maintain the national respect it had at the start of the season.
“Things happen in (Bed-lam) that don’t normally happen,” Smith said. “We’ve won a lot of those because we were the one that created a lot of surprises. I hope nothing changes.”

Emmanuel Ogbah will be playing on Sundays.
That is an undeniable fact. But whether his NFL career will begin next season or the one after it remains to be
seen.Ogbah is a first-
round talent, according to ESPN analyst Mel Kiper’s latest big board. When the Oklahoma State defensive end trotted out on senior night to be honored in front of a rowdy crowd in Boone Pickens Stadium, it seemed to signify his departure. But according to him, no decision has been made.
“I’ll wait until ev-erything is over with,” Ogbah said.
Ogbah said he wanted to be honored on senior
night precisely because he didn’t know what he was going to do. He didn’t want to forfeit the chance to experi-ence the ceremony if he elected to leave. If he decided to stay, he could always do it again.
Ranked 13th on Kip-er’s big board, Ogbah is fourth in the country in sacks with 13 and 14th nationally with 17.5 tackles for loss. He leads the Big 12 in both categories.

enough to fluster oppos-ing quarterbacks. He is the Cowboys’ all-time leader in quarterback hurries, with 19 this season alone.
“I think he’s a great prospect,” coach Mike Gundy said. “Not only physically, but he’s very squared away as a per-son. You watch him play, he’s very unselfish. His work habits are tremen-dous as I’ve said all year. … He’s a great leader. Had a tremendous up-bringing and I just think he’s a great prospect for that level because of what he brings to the
table.”Gundy echoed Og-
bah’s sentiments about not having reached a decision yet. He also addressed the decision to allow him to partici-pate in the senior night festivities.
“It’s not like he’s sign-ing a waiver that says he can’t come back,” Gundy said. “I hope he stays here and gets a master’s degree. But if he de-cides the time’s right for him based on whatever projections could be in place, then we certainly want him to do very well.”
Gundy also pointed
out that there are several who have made the deci-sion to return in the past, and it’s worked out well for them.
“We’ve had (Justin) Blackmon and (Brandon) Weeden and Russell (Okung) and (Brandon) Pettigrew,” Gundy said. “Those guys all came back and ended up being first-round picks and did very well. Emmanuel likes school. He likes being involved with our team. I think he’s com-fortable here. At some point, he’ll have to make that decision.”
Tuesday, USA Today announced its annual All-America teams. Although the Oklahoma State defensive end was not on the first team, he did make the second team.
He is the first Cowboy defensive lineman since Leslie O’Neal in 1985 to be named an All-Amer-ican.
Ogbah adds this to an already long list of hon-ors which includes: Ted Hendricks award final-ist, Walter Camp Award semifinalist, Bednarik Award semifinalist and Lott IMPACT Trophy semifinalist.
He leads the country in career sacks with 28 and ranks fourth on the
season with 13. He leads the Big 12 in both sacks and tackles for loss.
In 2014, Ogbah was chosen as the Big 12 defensive lineman of the year and will likely secure that honor once again this season.
