TUSCALOOSA, Ala.—The Oklahoma State women's tennis team ended its spring season with a loss to Georgia Tech in the first round of the NCAA Championship, 4-1, at the Alabama Tennis Center in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
"Today was a battle of two great teams," coach Chris Young said. "I'm so proud of our girls for the way we competed and how we've improved since the fall when we played this same team."
Georgia Tech earned the doubles point with wins at Nos. 1 and 2. GT's No. 23 duo of Jillian O'Neill and Alex Anghelescu defeated the No. 39 tandem, Malika Rose and Kanyapat Narattana, 8-3. The Yellow Jackets picked up another 8-3 win at No. 2 against Meghan Blevins and Mary Jeremiah to seal the point, and play at the No. 3 position did not finish.
The Cowgirls fired back by winning the first set of four singles matches. However, the squad could not hold on to the advantage as some fell in the second set, and Georgia Tech picked up wins at Nos. 2, 3 and 6 to earn the win.
The Cowgirls' lone point came on court No. 5 where Mary Jeremiah defeated Lynn Blau, 6-2, 1-6, 6-4. Play at Nos. 1 and 4 was closely contested, but did not finish.
Oklahoma State wraps up one of its most successful seasons of the past decade with an 11-10 overall record and 5-4 mark in Big 12 competition.
It was the Cowgirls' first NCAA tournament appearance since 2003, and the season highlight was an upset win over then-No.6 Texas, possibly the biggest win in program history, to secure a spot in the national tournament.
"We have a lot to build on with a young team that gained a lot of experience this year," Young said. "I couldn't be more proud."

UNIONALUMNI � 7 View Photos of Vivian (6) We've been Vivian Smith fans since she introduced us to her honey buns at the Snack Bar. Her Snack Bar is now Facebook, where this Union icon continues to keep us connected. Birthday: December 7 Current City: 8 � UNIONALUMNI Barbourville, KY Information E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com By Carrie Bistline, '09 Vivian Smith is one classy redhead. 58 years ago and continuing "Guess how many friends I have!" Vivian Smith says with a proud grin. "Five hundred and eighty something! Most of them are people I met through Union." That's something most 76 year-olds can't boast. But, then again, how many 76 year-olds do you find on Facebook? It will be no surprise to many that Vivian is among the minority, beating the social networking odds, doing what many her age can hardly understand, let alone participate in so successfully. Less than 10 percent of Facebook users, after all, are over the age of 55. But, this is Vivian. Those who know her know that Vivian is an odds-beater. Her foray into social networking is really just a continuation of her career as a Union employee, spanning 45 years beginning in 1952 and ending just before the new century. Before her retirement, Vivian was one of Union's common threads, connecting people and generations, usually over the counter of the old Snack Bar. Vivian's first job was in Union's cafeteria, then located in the basement of Centennial Hall. She and the college work-study students waited tables with restaurant-style service, serving fresh, wholesome meals. The meals were cooked by Al and Ethel Creasy, using food often purchased from local farmers. In the 60s, however, Union opted for the more economic and time-efficient food service option. Vivian worked a few years in the new buffet-style cafeteria, but was eventually moved to the old Snack Bar in the Student Center's lower level. It was in the Snack Bar that she found her niche. "We had an old jukebox and a big-screen TV. We thought we was in hog heaven," she says, drawing out the "o" in hog for several seconds. Then, with a don't-you-dare smile and a nod to the interviewer's notebook, she asks, "You gonna put that in there?" The Snack Bar, which opened early and closed late, gave the tender spitfire an opportunity to get to know students better. "There was only one restaurant I remember being in town then�the J&B Caf��and all the stores and that restaurant closed at dark," Vivian remembers. "So, the students came to the Snack Bar to hang out, and all of them knew they had a friend in us girls. Me, Josie Hensley, Jenetta Johnson, Louise Babbs and a few others always cooked for the students and talked to them, keeping their spirits up if they were down or homesick." The college occasionally held all-night parties for students, providing entertainment such as games, food and swimming for as long as the students could hold their eyes open. Vivian remembers how the late-night activity affected their appetites. "Those kids would go swimming at four in the morning, then come in the Snack Bar broke, busted and disgusted, wantin' me to cook them biscuits and gravy. And I did it, too." It was just one example of how far Vivian would go to help students, who shared their triumphs and travails with her. She did not step�she broad jumped�over typical professional boundaries. That was just fine with everyone, though. In fact, she could easily be said to be the red-headed embodiment of Union's current emphasis on a personal education, 50 years before "one-to-one" was officially a college slogan. One morning, for instance, she looked around the Snack Bar and didn't see one of her regulars, whom she knew was due in class in less than an hour. Vivian marched to the girl's dorm room, dragged her out of bed and to the Snack Bar, made her one of her famous honey buns--heated and buttered--and sent her to class. That young student was Anne Reed, '74, now a member of Union's Board of Trustees. Her motherly disposition led her into service as more than UNIONALUMNI � 9 "Heated, well-buttered honey buns rest in memory as Vivian's sumptuous gift to civilization. Still yet, her legacy goes deeper: she has been a respected friend to many of the more interesting, complex and gifted people who passed her way." � President Ed de Rosset an alarm clock. Unable to stand by as young male students attempted, but failed, at domestic chores, Vivian intervened. "Some of them boys who had never been away from home came in there and they'd be burning their clothes to a crisp because they didn't know how to do their laundry," Vivian says. "So, I would go on over to their apartment and show them how to do it." From cleaning young, helpless coaches' apartments to buying medicine for sick students who didn't have the money, the entire Union community knew they could come to Vivian for anything. On rare occasions, though, students took that familiarity too far. One young male student unwisely decided to give Vivian a playful, inappropriate slap as she walked by. She may be a compassionate soul, but Vivian doesn't brook disrespect. She turned, picked up a chair, and threw it at him. "Go ahead and tell the president," she yelled. "You ain't gonna touch me like that again!" Though that student may not think of Vivian with affection, most remember her as a kind and endearingly feisty campus matriarch. "Vivian was the best," says Anne Reed. "She knew every student by name and loved them all. And we loved her." Anne has maintained her friendship with Vivian over the years, still grateful for the extra mile Vivian went to make sure she made it to class. "She is one classy redhead," says Anne. "I'm proud to call her my friend." Similar friendships formed with countless students, in part because Vivian's lively but laidback manner made her an ideal confidant. They did not hesitate to disclose their secrets and antics to her. When, for instance, she saw a Volkswagen on top of the boys' dorm and shook her head in disbelief, pranksters nearly tripped over themselves to confess to her their responsibility. She laughed with them and never told a soul. "I knew nearly everything that went on in this school," says Vivian. "Half of it I can't even tell you. We didn't make too much money, but we sure had fun." Vivian's time at Union wasn't all fun and games, though. She married Denver Smith shortly after being hired. When they began a family, Vivian had to figure out how to raise three children while working full-time. They often stayed in the Snack Bar as she worked. She also had to take on side jobs to make ends meet. 10 � UNIONALUMNI One of those side jobs involved Ed Black, the former vice president for administration at Union. Vivian babysat his children, who sometimes joined her children at the Snack Bar. The friendship she formed with "Mr. Black," as she calls him, still means a great deal to Vivian. "I know he's deceased now, but I will always love Mr. Black dearly," Vivian says. "He did so many nice things for me during all the years he worked at Union." Ed Black was fond of Vivian, and she valued his esteem. She prizes a memory of a conversation in 1999, just before she retired, between her, Ed Black and others. "He said, `There's one thing about Vivian. Nobody ever went hungry. If a student came in there with no money, she'd feed them anyway,'" she remembers him saying. Vivian's quick response was in character: proud, defiant, determined. "'Amen, brother.' I said to him. 'I done it, and I'd do it again.'" Vivian spent her last years at Union working as part of the housekeeping team. She formed several friendships in that role, especially with Dan Covington, now chair of the Department of Natural Sciences. "Dan Covington has tried to keep me straight ever since he met me," Vivian says, shaking her head. "But, he can't." These days, Vivian spends her time as the primary caretaker of her husband, who is very ill. She doesn't mind her job. She has always taken care of the people she loves. But, she says, she will not be left behind by this world. She spends her spare time finding people on Facebook she never thought she'd have the chance to speak with again. "I look on there and find somebody I know and it just makes my day. I found two on there last night that I ain't seen in 30 years!" She glows as she talks about these reconnections. The people she "friends" on Facebook are clearly glad to have found her, too. One of them, Donna Dobo Canchola, '77, made a comment on Vivian's Facebook page that speaks volumes about her ability to continue bringing Union people together, even if it is over a keyboard rather than the Snack Bar counter. "Hi, Vivian!" Donna wrote. "So good to see you here on Facebook. With all of the familiar names and faces, it's almost like hanging out in the snack bar again!" U No one would be prouder of Vivian's embrace of technology than Ed Black. This year marks the tenth anniversary of his death. A beloved Union friend, alumnus and administrator, Ed graduated in 1964 and began working at Union immediately. He remained with the college until his death in 2000. Ed held what college historian W.G. Marigold called "a bewildering succession of positions." Several of those were in the student life area, and Ed was well known for his rapport with and respect of students. Later, when he became one of Union's senior administrators, the array of positions and deep institutional knowledge served him well. He was, and is, considered one of the college's legacy leaders. The reach of Ed Black's legacy is broad and deep. President Ed de Rosset, who worked alongside Ed for several years, remembers him as "the most unprepossessing and yet most respected of senior college administrators. No one knew the state of Union, her vulnerabilities and promise, nor how to navigate her shallows and rapids, better than Ed Black." In his final years at Union, technology was particularly important to Ed. He tuned into discussion about an Internet long before it was a reality for the average computer user, and he sensed how critical technology would be for all students. He led the effort to write grants and find funds, worked to create a campus culture that would adopt emerging technologies, and helped establish the first serious technology infrastructure. Ed was also responsible for the college-city technology collaborative that got Union off to a fine start and led, four years later, to Barbourville drawing national notice as one of the best-wired small towns in the U.S. Ed's efforts laid the groundwork for all that is in place at Union now, including online classes, enterprise e-mail, text messaging and more. His name graces the front of the Edward H. Black Technology Center. The concept for the facility was the subject of Ed's last major grant preparation. Written into the grant was Ed's intent for the facility to be used by the community and the college to support education, training and communication. He did not live to see it dedicated in 2003, but it stands as a permanent tribute to Ed's formative contributions to technology at Union and his exhaustive work to ensure that the college stay ahead of the curve and share its resources with the community. "Ed Black was a special gift to Union," says President de Rosset, "someone who bonded for life to help her live and thrive--a man from the New Jersey coast for all seasons of the life of Kentucky's first college in the mountains." U UNIONALUMNI � UNIONALUMNI � 1111 A book by Joe Matvey, '82, shows how the mountains followed the Pittsburgh native, even years after leaving them behind. When sociologist Joseph Matvey, Ph.D., originally wrote and published "Regionalism and Globalization: Essays on Appalachia, Globalization, and Global Computerization," the subtitle likely came as no surprise to his Union classmates. Joe thrived in the mountains surrounding Union. Even now, nearly 30 years after he left the area, his experience at Union and in the region permeates his life and scholarship. Joe was born and raised in inner-city Pittsburgh before moving into the suburbs in his teenage years. Throughout high school, he longed to see and live in the mountains. He had heard about the Appalachian Mountains and wanted to study in them. Joe's first college choice was Thiel College in Pennsylvania because they had an Appalachian semester, a program that allows students to study for a semester at a college in Appalachia. Joe, however, wanted more than just a semester in the mountains, so he asked Thiel where they sent their students. Union College was the answer. He contacted Union right away and got a quick, and surprising, response; he was called out of class one day because a Union admissions counselor was there to spend some time with him. "I knew right then this was the place I wanted to be," says Joe. "So I came down in the spring with a friend. We visited Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Falls, Stinking Creek, Corbin, Pine Mountain State Park ... and fell in love with the place." --from "Sketches of Memory" in Joe Matvey's book, "Regionalism and Globalization." 12 � UNIONALUMNI 12 � UNIONALUMNI "... always, however returning to your finest backdrop, the acclivity of eastern Kentucky � how deep these habits from the heart . . ." When he enrolled, Joe became very involved on campus and felt at home. He worked in the bookstore and adored his supervisor, Phyllis Sexton. He joined Mu Omega Beta with seven other pledges and still keeps in touch with many of his frat brothers. He also became involved with national, state, and local politics and the Student Senate. But it was the chance to immerse himself in the longadmired Appalachians that made Joe's Union experience so memorable. He declared a double major in sociology and Appalachian studies and a minor in economics, which gave him an opportunity to study the mountains he loved from complementary angles. He was impressed by Union's "commitment to Appalachia, like the Appalachian semester, the Appalachian studies major, workshops, festivals and many other things." And, of course, there were the mountains that drew him to Union in the first place, always beckoning. "I think we all hiked one or more of the surrounding mountains not but five minutes from campus in every direction. What other school can boast that?" says Joe. When his undergraduate studies came to an end, Joe left Kentucky to pursue advanced degrees in sociology at the University of Pittsburgh. The young man who spent four years focused on a specific region of the country--Appalachia-- found himself studying globalization under the tutelage of professor Roland Robertson, who Joe calls "the foremost theorist on globalization across the entire field of sociology." When he began to study globalization in earnest, it was impossible not to view it through the lens of his experience at Union, especially when it came time to write a dissertation. "I followed my heart and chose a topic I knew best: a thesis on Appalachia," Joe writes in the introduction to his book. The dissertation helped form the foundation the book, though it is ultimately the result of 25 years of ongoing social research and thinking. Interestingly, the book became a leisure and intellectual pursuit of sorts for Joe; he left academia in 1989 due to a long-term illness. He has since worked either for his late father's company or with his wife as part of a homebased business, but Joe never stopped being a sociologist. He continued his research, and published the first edition of "Regionalism and Globalization" in 2005. The second edition was released earlier this year. It contains several revisions, adds four new chapters and is interspersed with a collection of Joe's poetry. The latter softens the work and gives readers insight into Joe's lingering affection for his time at Union, his experience in the mountains, and the relationships he formed during those years in the Appalachians. The central themes of the book, as the title suggests, focus on Appalachia, globalization and global computerization. The first five chapters are devoted to a study of the economy and culture of coal in both northern and central Appalachia. Economically, Joe posits that capital and wealth are drained from the region by the corporate structure of the coal industry, where vast, out-of-state, multinational parents centralize profit from Appalachian subsidiary units and divert them into the metropolitan areas across the U.S. and the globe. This is a model familiar throughout the world, Joe suggests, and one that is central to the way globalization has developed. It is an important structure to note, not necessarily for the sake of judgment, but to help understand the cultural and economic conditions decried by many inside and outside the region. Joe maintains that it is these economic and corporate structures, not the culture or people of central Appalachia, that have created and maintained poverty in the region throughout its industrial history. Culturally, Joe contends that while Appalachia is like any other place in America, there are also continued patterns of subsistence in the region at higher levels than elsewhere. The subsistence culture, Joe says, has caused many to think of the region as "backward" or "stalled." Joe's argument, though, is that the economic structure contributes to long-standing cultural practices, such as subsistence farming and crafts. "It's not just that you have quilting and crafting because the region is rural; there are many other rural areas in the U.S. where subsistence practices died out," Joe says. The culture is not backward, he insists, but "dynamic and adapting, confronting a depressed boom-bust economy with practices that have long created value in the Appalachian household." Though the book, as Joe puts it, is "at its heart a sociology book written from a sociological perspective," the tone and poetic touches make clear that it is also an ode to the mountains Joe has always loved and to his college experience in their midst. Professor Robertson, who wrote the introduction for the 2010 edition, calls it "an interesting and moving account of the changes in thinking of a particular author over a few decades, one who was intimately familiar with the Appalachian region and moved on to consider Appalachia in a global context." The book is, in part, Joe's way of giving back to a region that still fuels his intellect and imagination and continues to crook its finger at him from afar.

Hey all, was in the middle of an IT Training course with Advent and much to my dismay they have ceased trading!
Has anyone else been affected by this? I have called ICS who were very helpful and even offered me a £100 discount (as an ex-Advent student) off any course purchased over £500....I'm thinking this may be the way forward in order to continue and complete my course.
Their main line number for this is 0800 056 3983
