280 Personnel -- 208 clas., 17 unclas., 6 temps. History and Function -- The Oklahoma Military Department was established in 1951 and serves as the administrative agency for all matters concerning the Oklahoma National Guard and other military organizations. The Governor, as Commander-in-Chief of the National Guard, appoints the Adjutant General, the executive and administrative officer. The Army National Guard operates at a strength of 9,464 men and women in 125 units statewide. Its main components are the 45th Infantry Brigade, 45th Troop Command and the 45th Field Artillery Brigade. The Air National Guard has 2,044 men and women operating out of air bases in Oklahoma City and Tulsa. The National Guard has a dual mission: (1) to provide units organized. equipped and trained to function efficiently in the protection of life and property and preservation of peace, order and public safety under competent orders of federal or state authorities; (2) to provide trained units and qualified individuals available for active duty in time of war or national emergency. Initiated by the U.S. Congress in 1890 when it authorized one regiment of organized militia for , the Territorial Legislature passed a law, in 1895, providing for the organization and development of a the Volunteer Militia, the "Oklahoma National Guard." In March, 1918, by authority of the War Department, the Governor ordered organization of one regiment of infantry. So many towns applied for companies that two regiments were organized into 18 companies of 100 men each. In late 1918, they were granted federal recognition and this formed the foundation for Oklahoma's "new" National Guard At the beginning of World World II, the emblem of the 45th, the swastika, was changed to the "Thunderbirds." This was to become one of the most famous and respected patches in the history of the military world. Three years of training preceded the 45th's entry into the European conflict. Sicily, Messina, Palermo, some of the fiercest of the European campaigns, prompted General George S. Patton to say: " ... born at sea, baptized in blood, your fame shall never die. Your division is one of the best, if not the best, division in the history of American arms." The Korean conflict saw the 45th distinguish itself admirably in many battles, during 209 days of combat from December, 1951 to July, 1952. One of Oklahoma's heroes in this conflict was General Robinson Risner who flew more than 100 combat missions during this time and became the rrrst living person to be honored with a major military trophy in his own name. Later, he spent seven and one half years as a prisoner in the "Hanoi Hilton" and "Heartbreak Hotel," including 54 months in solitary confmement during the Vietnam War. In 1968, reorganization of the entire Army National Guard eliminated several divisions from troop structure, including Oklahoma's 45th Infantry Division. In a farewell address to the 45th upon its deactivation after World War II, Brigadier General H. 1. Meyer, who commanded the unit for its final three months of active service, said, "Whatever destiny may hold in store for our great country, and however long that country's military history may continue, readers in the future will search long before rmding a chapter more brilliant than that written by the quill that was dipped in the blood of the 'Thunderbirds'.' , MINING COMMISSION, OKLAHOMA Virgil Smith, Chair .....•......

303 History and Function -- As early as 1895, the Oklahoma Territorial Legislature showed an interest in the protection of game and fish. The killing of wild game and insectivorous birds was prohibited, except that quail, prairie chicken and wild turkey hunting seasons were set from November 1 to February I, and doves and plover were declared legal game between August 1 and December 31. In 1909, a game and fish code law provided for the appointment of a State Game Warden by the Governor and authorized employment of eight deputies. Hunting licenses were established at a cost of $1.25 each to create a fund administered by the Warden. In 1947, the Legislature restructured the Commission, increasing the membership from five to eight and authorizing it to select a director. It is the duty of the Game Division to provide techniques for the propagation and management of wildlife and to introduce new species and restore depleted populations where possible. Approximately 800,000 acres of public hunting land, owned or licensed by the Department is maintained and open to the public through use of funds provided by licenses and the Pittman Robertson Federal Aid Act The Department has the following divisions: Administrative, Law Enforcement, Fisheries, Game, Information and Education, Radio, Environmental and Nongame Wildlife Section.

(Data currart September, 1992) THE OKLAHOMA STATE SYSTEM OF HIGHER EDUCATION

Department -- The Oklahoma State System of Higher Education, 500 Education Building, State Capitol Complex, 73105-4503. Telephone (405) 521-2444. Administration -- Dr. Hans Brisch, Chancellor of Higher Education; George B. Kaiser, Chairman, Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. History and Function - The Oklahoma State System of Higher Education is composed of 25 colleges and universities and 9 other constituent agencies and four higher education centers. Seven institutions were established by the Oklahoma Territorial Legislature: the University of Oklahoma, created on December 19, 1890; the Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College at Stillwater, Oklahoma State University, and the Oklahoma Normal School for Teachers in Edmond, Central State University, both created December 25, 1890. In 1897, three more institutions were authorized: (1) the Colored Agricultural and Normal University at Langston, Langston University; (2) the Northwestern Oklahoma Normal School for Teachers at Alva, Northwestern Oklahoma State University; and (3) the Southwestern Oklahoma Normal School for Teachers at Weatherford, now Southwestern Oklahoma State University. In 1901, the Oklahoma University Preparatory School at Tonkawa, now Northern Oklahoma College, was established. All programs are operated on a separately budgeted basis. The University of Oklahoma administers the Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City, the Geological Survey and The Law Center in Norman. Oklahoma State University administers the OSU Oklahoma City, the OSU Technical Branch, Okmulgee, and the Agricultural Experiment Station, Agricultural Extension Division and College of Veterinary Medicine, all in Stillwater, and also the College of Osteopathic Medicine, Tulsa. In 1926, the Legislature passed a law creating a statutory coordinating board. The law was revised frequently until March 11, 1941, when the people of Oklahoma adopted an amendment to the State Constitution (Article XllI-A) providing for a unified system to be known as "The Oklahoma State System of Higher Education." The amendment also created the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, the coordinating board of control of the State System, composed of nine members appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate. The members serve nine-year over-lapping terms, and appoint a chief executive officer, the Chancellor, to approve appointments of other administrative personnel as necessary. The responsibilities of the State Regents for each institution include: (1) determining functions and courses of study, (2) prescribing standards of higher education, (3) granting degrees and other forms of academic recognition for completed courses of study, (4) recommending budget needs, and (5) recommending proposed student fees and prescribing and coordinating the fees within limits set by the Legislature. The State Regents allocate funds to each institution" ... according to its needs and functions" from lump-sum appropriations. In addition, the Regents approve educational programs and degrees for private institutions of higher education and accredited institutions in the State pursuant to the Constitution and Statutes. While the Regents provide coordinating control, each institution has a governing board, and a chief executive officer, the president, who makes recommendations to the Regents regarding changes of policies in those areas within the jurisdiction of the State Regents. Two of the governing boards serve more than one institution.

340 OKLAHOMA DEPARTMENT OF VOCATIONAL AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION

About 400,000 Oklahomans enrolled in some phase of vocational and technical education to learn a marketable skill or to improve in the skills related to their employment during FY92. Training is offered in over 150 occupational classifications in the comprehensive schools, area vo-tech schools and skills centers, including skills centers for inmates in correctional institutions. The Department of Vocational and Technical Education is responsible for coordinating vo-tech training and administers state and federal funds appropriated for that purpose. The local school is the provider and deliverer of the training with local taxes being the prime source of funding. State and federal funds are provided to assist in the purchase of instructional equipment, pay part of the operational costs, and for technical assistance. Congress has provided the impetus for vo-tech training since 1917 when it first appropriated funds for this purpose. Later, the passage of the Vocational Education Act of 1963 mandated the area vo-tech school concept. Federal funds have decreased proportionately as local and state funding increased. Today, many adults take vo-tech programs during the day, right beside the high school students, and many are enrolled in part-time evening classes. Seven student organizations are part of the vocational and technical education program. They are DECA, an association for Marketing Education students; Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA); (FFA), an organization for Agricultural Education students; Future Homemakers of America/Home Economics Related Occupations (FHA/HERO), Health Occupations Students ofAmerica (HOSA), Vocational Industrial Clubs of America (VICA), and Technology Student Association (TSA).
