A proposal which originated from the Academic Policies Committee and was recommended by the University Committee contained a passage which would have required that summaries of student evaluations be | on open file in divisional offices unless individual faculty members requested that their particular evaluations be withheld. The passage was deleted before a vote was taken on the rest of the proposal. William Murin, a member of the University Com­mittee, have the motion which sought to remove the passage saying that he was still awaiting the reaction of some divisions on the issue. A later discussion with Murin left in question whether delaying this issue was intentional or just another Senate blunder. Murin said he was unaware that the passage dealing with student evaluations was included in the recommendation, and that he had given divisional chairmen a later deadline for thier response on the matter. The proposal, as it was, tended to skirtjhe issue of whether or not the evaluations are public information £ince it allowed for professors to request that their particular evaluations remain confidential. The entire faculty could conceivably make such a request and then we'd have policy deeming the information public and a practice which keeps it confidential. -Even this particular proposal which answers the public information question with a maybe instead of a yes or no, was too heavy for the Faculty Senate to deal with right away, If more faculty input was required, then it might have been a nice idea to have it previous to the presentation of the proposal. It leads one to question why the University Committee sent the recommendation through if they felt more faculty input was necessary. Obviously someone on the committee must have read the entire proposal' before recommending it to the Faculty senate. What is needed, possibly, is a little organization so that a suitable proposal dealing with the question of-public information in relation to the student evaluations can be presented at theFaculty Senate's May meeting.

T' trT Defense rebutted: Maynard Ms. Jeannine Sipsma: I would like to draW your at­tention to page 4 of "THE PARKSIDE RANGER" (April 28,1976) under the boxed heading--THE PARKSIDE RANGER. You will notice the first sentence, it reads: "The Parkside Ranger is written and edited by the students of the University of Wisconsin-Parkside who are solely responsible for its editorial policy and content." Now, if I understand your defense of "Ranger's" editorial policy correctly (which you so generously placed on page 2 of that same issue), then I believe that one word should be omitted from the above quoted sentence. That word is of course -- "the"; thus, the sentence should read: "The Parkside Ranger is written and edited by students of the University of Wisconsin-Parkside who are solely responsible for its editorial policy and content" .This is so, because truely it is not "the students", but "students" (i.e. certain students) Mick amuck Bowden thanks helpers To the Students: I want to thank those students who s upported me in the recent PSGA elections. I hope you will continue your support by offering me your views and advice on PSGA-related matters. I expect to spend Considerable time in the PSGA office (LLC D-197; 553-2244) and would welcome the opportunity to speak with students there. I owe special thanks to my excellent campaign manager Rod Luft and to Lee Wagner, Ed Bielarczyk, Laura Bruno, Wil Fiedler, Dave Harris, Mary Arnold, Chris Meyer, Bill Young, Bruce Chakuno and Tom Kexel; all of whom provided me with support and encouragement. Kiyoko Bowden President PSGA To the Editor, Having spent most of my life actively involved in politics I can surely appreciate good political reportage. Unfortunately ac­curate quotations of political personages often send one's imagination off to the sardonic land of Unbelievability, and the avid reader of what Lord Tweedsmuir called "an honorable profession" becomes choked on cliche. So it was with Lee Wagner's recent exultation over the Bowden-Vlach victory in the P.S.G.A. elections. To quote Mr. Wagner the aforementioned electoral success was "a victory for the people." Immediately the question arose in my mind, is our former student government leader calling those who sup­ported Mr. Tripp or Mr. Nail "unpersons" by insinuation. This type of elitist politique seems to relegate those who did not supprt the winning ticket to the status of "aardvarks,'.' perhaps. Such political saavy qualifies Mr. Wagner fo£ t wo government-service oriented positions. The question is: does Jimmy Carter really need another speech writer, and will President Ford ever have enough time off from his busy campaign schedule to take ski lessons again? " Mick Andersen of the University of Wisconsin-Parkside who make their political desires known via the Ranger's ink. If you would change that "sentence", then I believe that would actually be a more adequate representation of the truth concerning your recent endorsement of certevin P.S.G .A. candidates. Also, it would help in keeping people like me from misconstruing who the Ranger really belongs to. (?). David M. Maynard EDITOR'S NOTE: See new masthead.

In a letter from Senator Berger, Jain was assured that the change was being made. In a March 1st meeting of the Legislative Joint Rules Com­mittee, Jain voiced dissatifaction with the Board's present policy. He proposed that accreditation be the sole responsibility of the academic community and the North Central Association, not the AEB. Last week Senator Berger wrote Jain saying, "I have waited to send you this letter until Iwas assured by Govenor Lucey's office that ho-would leave this statutory change in tact. I have been assured he will." The hew change is meant to abolish unnecessary restrictions the AEB had placed on in­dividuals desiring to become CPA's. In essence this will make Parkside graduates immediately eligable to sit for the CPA exam and eliminate the hassles encountered by past graduates. On May 7th at 3:00 p.m. the Parkside Accounting Club will be addressed by Dr. Kahtan A1 Yasiti, Dean, College of Business, Platteville, and Jack O'Donnel of Arther Andersen CPA firm. The two speakers are expected to comment on the statutory changes. All Parkside students are welcome to attend the meeting. Peter Ellis resigns by David Brandt On Monday April 26th Assistant .Professor Peter Ellis submitted his resignation to Vice Chancellor Bauer.

Bauer, who accepted the resignation, refused to comment on why it was given. Despite his resignation Ellis says he is not leaving Parkside disenchanted. In a statement to the Ranger Ellis wrote, "I have already expressed privately to my colleagues and the ad­ministration my warm feelings toward Parkside." In reference to his offer from Utah State, Ellis said it was at­tractive both financially and geographically. The Business Management program at Utah is apparently very strong and Ellis was impressed by its stimulating research environment. He said he was looking to leave Parkside anyway as it seemed to be ap­propriate from a career stand­point. As a final comment Ellis ex­pressed his respect for the Chancellor's commitment to Parkside, "The Chancellor deserves the support of all the faculty in implementing the recommendations of his special committee on the business management program." In addition, Ellis stated that Parkside "has a very bright future and the business management program can be expected to have an active role in the growth and development of this campus." ..

The quality has always come through. by Mick Anderson The Faculty Senate met Thursday, April 29th, to consider a number of resolutions and recommendations regarding a number of academic and in-situtional issues. A resolutiort on the dispute between Mathematics and Business Management and a recom­mendation on student and peer evaluation of instruction were considered by many to have highlighted the Senate action. The Senate decided that while the Business Management program did not follow previously agreed upon procedure regarding course duplication and overlay, it would allow Business Management 115 to be offered in the summer and fall terms of 1976. It was made clear that this was only an interim agreement and that Business would be required •o make application to the new dl-campus Course and Curriculum Committee for ap­proval beyond the fall term. The Senate also passed the recommendation of the University Committee with regard to policies and procedures for evaluation of instruction. The Senate,however, agreed only to pass the sections of the recommendation that put the University in compliance with Regent guidelines on student and peer evaluation. It delayed consideration on the issue of standardized format for all divisions and the current con­troversy over public access to student evaluations. According to William Murin, associate professor of Political Science, there is "a medium-sized battle" between Ranger and other student organizations, and the administration on what constitutes 'public information.' Walter Feldt, chair of the Faculty Senate, saw the issue of public information as "peripheral" to the Regents request. Chancellor AlanGuskin noted that the issue may be seen as peripheral to the Regent's request but was an important concept that may have to be decided in the courts unless the Senate and the divisions took an affirmative stand on o pening up the evaluations. He mentioned that the "Freedom of in­formation Act" was an area for potential lawsuit against the university. Murin mentioned that inquiries had been sent to the divisions to get a sense of cu rrent procedures and a concensus about the prospects of change. Murin said that the divisions were slow to respond and asked that the public information question be deleted from the day's consideration. In other action the Senate passed a resolution approving the merger of the Anthropology and Sociology faculties. They also approved an amendment of the University charter, charging the new Curriculum and Program Committee with the duties of the now inoperative College Course and Curriculum Committee. Division views evaluation issue GOOD F OOD RESTAURANT H OURS: Mon. - THURS 6 a.m. 11 p.m. Fri. & Sat. 6 a.m. - 1 p.m. Sun. 6 a.m. - 8 p.m. LOCATED AT 245 MAIN STREET IN RACINE by Bruce Wagner University Committee chairperson William Murin has requested of the divisional faculties their reaction to having student evaluations made public. The Social Science Divisional faculty met last Wednesday to consider that question. The five faculty members who showed up for the meeting were against such a thing happening at Parkside. Morton Nachlas, assistant professor of Sociology, was the most vehemently against it, saying that "students don't have to know about the student evaluations. The administration has been giving in too much to students." He also questioned whether students would give proper use to the evaluations. Gerald Greenfield, assistant professor of History, was more sympathetic than Nachlas, worrying that "our form is not the way to do it," meaning that for students to interpret such results correctly, they would have to put out thier own form. He suggested that the students attempt their own form with some input by faculty to get the information the students want. There will be a general call of the divisional faculty to find out their feelings on the subject and this will be sent to Murin and the University Committee for further consideration. oiiKrs Northside 3728 Do uglas 639-7115 Southside 1816-16th St. 634-1991 FINE F OODS & C OCKTAILS PICK UP OR PIPING HOT FOODS DELIVERED TO YOUR HOME 5*322.
