Registration for the Fall 1979 semester at Parkside will begin this April 17th and 18th tor continuing students and April 20th for new students. The timetables for the Fall semester will be available April 2nd. They will contain all the information you will need for early registration. Also all continuing students and new students who have applied to Parkside will receive a mailing in March describing the details of this plan. Therefore, all students who wish to register early will have from the 2nd till the 17th of April to consult their academic advisor and get their advising card authorized. While you can pass up the early registration times, and wait to register for the Fall semester at the regular time or at several times in between, it is obvious that you may not get into the classes you need for the coming Fall if you do not register as early as possible. No one has to pay their tuition until about the beginning of the Fall semester, regardless of when you choose to register. You will be billed for your fees through the mail in early August. This new arrangement has been initiated by the University because of certain advantages it will bring to students and the university in general. While this plan will obviously mean making some adjustments, similar plans have already been put into effect at UW-Whitewater and UW-Green Bay with much success. UW-Green Bay is the closest UW campus to Parkside in student population and size. In order to get a clear picture of the details and rationale of this plan. Ranger conducted an interview last Wednesday with the Early Registration Planning Com­mittee, John Campbell Assistant to the Vice Chancellor, and Jack Elmore, Director of Student Development. The advantages to students are: 1) The counseling process in which all students must participate can now be done during the preceding semester. You are therefore not coming out of your vacation "cold" and having to make important decisions about your academic career. Completing the counseling while you are in school allows one to make much more relevant and accurate decisions. 2 If you register early you get the classes you want and therefore know what your academic schedule will be for the next semester. The advantages for the university staff are: 1) Based on the hope that most students will choose to register early, (in April), the faculty will then know, months in advance, how large each of their classes will be. They will then be able to make the necessary modifications (drops, adds, enlargements, etc.) to the course offerings, based on these early enrollment figures. 2) the early enrollment figures also make planning much easier for the rest of the university as well: students support staff, financial staff, and administration staff. There are three basic reasons why this plan was not initiated earlier. First of all it was not previously possible to know months in advance what each department's course offerings were going to be for each semester. However, in recent years, definite patterns of course offerings have developed. Second, it was not thought that students could plan their work schedules and the like for September, in April. But at other schools in the UW system and throughout the nation this registration set-up has worked quite well. Finally, it is only in recent years that the computer system tied into the registration process has had the capacity to handle the thousands of students that register here during a semester. The planning for this change over has been in the works technically for about a year and a half but has only been seriously worked on since last November. Members of the Planning Commit­tee explained that the task has been a true lesson in logistics, considering all of the mailings involved and the fact that practically every department in the university has had to make some adjustment for this change. Once again, all the necessary information for this change over will be available to you soon. Also, the basic process of registering, except for fee payment, is the same as it has always been. More Grant Monies Available By Dee Goodwin An article titled "Student Grants Slashed $50" which was printed in the Wednesday, December 13,1978 issue, has a new slant to eligible grant students. Some new information important to those students has been received by J.K. Ocker, Director of Financial aids for U.W. Parkside. A letter from Ocker and the higher Educational Aids Board asking students to complete the form so he or she may be considered for aid to replace cancelled WHEG Grant were mailed out. Nearly one-hundred request forms have been returned to date. As soon as he can he will try to make-up the slashed $50 in grant assistance from the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant Fund. The Supplemental Educa­tional Opportunity Grant Program (SEOG) is for students of exceptional financial need who without the grant would be unable to continue their education. Ocker says it is a Federal grant given directly to colleges and universities to be given to the students. Of course, there are need requirements that have to be met. Not all of the approximately one hundred stu­dents will qualify. To be eligible a student must meet further requirements stipulated in that program. The reason why we can do this at Parkside, Ocker explained is that we have adequate funds in this program for 1978-1979. Each tequest for supplemental funds will be reviewed on an individual basis. If you don't qualify there are three other options: the first option provides $50 loan; the second option is the College Work-Study Program (CWS) provides $50 to those students already working according to their requested desires on the form; the third option allows freshmen and sophomores referred them to Wisconsin Talent and Incentive Program, which is a special state fund designed to help extremely needy students in their first two years of college. HEAB has notified Ocker's office that those students which are freshmen and sophomores can be referred to Racine office and will be considered for the $50 replacement and/or additional funds if needed. Those students who haven't completed the work form should do so in the Financial Aids office. Ocker has set the deadline for February 9, 1979 for applications. You still have time so please hurry. Bass Quartet Performs Rogers & Hammerstein Musical Duo Revued "An Evening with Rodgers and Hammerstein" — including songs from such hit musicals as "Oklahoma", "South Pacific," "The King and I", "Flower Drum Song" and "The Sound of Music" — will be presented at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside Communication Arts Theater on Thursday, Feb. 15, at 8 p.m. under sponsorship of the student Parkside Activities Board. Advance admission for the public is $4 at the UW-P Union Information Center, Sears in Kenosha and Team Electronics in Racine. Advance UW-P student admission is $3, at the Information Center only. All tickets at the door are $6. The cast of six singer-actors is backed by two actors who portray Rodgers and Hammerstein and an on-stage musical ensemble. The production, staged against a background of signatures from the various productions represented in the evening a musical theater, evolves around an informal narrative in which the composer, Rodgers, and lyricist, Hammerstein, reminisce about the creation of their Broadway triumphs. Some of the highlights include a torchy rendition of "It Might as Well Be Spring" from "State Fair", "You'll Never Walk Alone" from "Carousel", a medly of tunes from the recently revived "The King and 1" and a finale of songs from "The Sound of Music." The production was designed, directed and choreographed by R.C. Torri, associate director of theater at Emory University, who recently completed a year's engagement as John Adams in "1776" in Washington, D.C. His young cast boasts a solid list of credits both in formal musical and dramatic training and on-stage experience, winning consistent praise from critics around the country. Gunther Schuller's "Quartet for 4 Double Basses" will be the featured work in the second 1978-79 season concert in the New Music at Parkside series at 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, February 11, in the University of Wisconsin-Parkside Communication Arts Theater. The only major work for four bases, the Schuller three-movement composition will be performed twice: at the beginning and end of the concert. The second playing will include "breaks" for explanation of some of the work's unusual facets. Harry Sturm will conduct the bass ensemble, which will include Karel Netolicka, a member of the UW-P music staff and assistant principal bassist of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra; Peter Hansen, a Northwestern University alumna and former winner of the Kenosha Symphony Youth Audition award; Victor Ellsworth, who performs with the Waukesha and Milwaukee Symphonies; and James Dean, a UW-P English professor as well as a musician and co-author of a book, "The Art of Double Bass Playing." While on a Fulbright-Hays Fellowship last year at the Universidade de Minas Gerais in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, Dean was a member of the orquestra sufonica deMinas Gerais in addition to teaching literature courses. Aha Knurv of 6rAr#, r hto* gnc* v*J Aa ~iy /l/6eu^uUttt To The Editor Wednesday January 31, 1979 What is your opinion about a proposal to raise the drinking UWP Lacks School Spirit Mike Giever Waste of time.. .No one would adhere to it so why go back to it. RANGER What is school spirit? To me it's having and showing pride in your school and those who represent it. A good example of school spirit was the basketball game between Tremper and Bradford High Schools played here at the gym January 22, 1979. There were more fans at that game than there has been since the first game of the season of Parkside games. The cheering was so loud at the Tremper game that you couldn't here the officials whistles. It was standing room only. In contrast with the Parkside game on January 21 and January 23,1979, just a mere handfull were at the women's game and a few more watched the men's game. You could hear a pin fall between plays. Do you call this school spirit? Even though you might not like basketball or the school, these men and women are representing the school you chose to attend. The least you can do is give them your support. The talent and potential of these men and women is not shown in their team records. With these crowds there are not enough student fans to show them to nor any advantage in playing on the home court. The few real student fans that show their support can only give so much. Don't be ashamed to cheer, it's an everyday, normal thing. If you come out just to see Marvin's strong game—or 7 foot tall Lester block shots—or Lonnie's Dr. J stuffs—or Reggie's long jump shot—or Joe's great hands—or Walter's Finesse—or if nothing else, to see coach Stephens get upset or smile, it's well worth your time. The only reason some people came to the first game was to win a car. Well, come and try to win the new car, but at least cheer. School spirit is not only important in basketball but all sports at Parkside. Its also very important to the cheerleaders. Yes, it does make a difference if a player sees and hears one fan or 50. The gym holds 3,000 people and we don't fill half of it with students. The basketball team has been working hard since August for this time right now. They have lost some easy ones, but they have also won some big ones, such as against Green Bay who was the number one team in the NCAA Division II. With a lot of fellow students and other fans behind them, Parkside could be at least 12-2 with the right to be called the number one team in the state. It's not too late to start showing some school spirit, since you do go to this school. The next men's game is next Saturday and the next women's game is Thursday so come out and show them we care as they do and YELL LOUD AS HELL. Chavez Epps County Closed Parkside Open To the Editor: rooms. When the student body So even a blizzard couldn't keep arrived in force on Wednesday, Parkside employees and students these professors had to repeat their away? (January 18th Ranger). Just lectures anyway, what were Parkside's authorities The parking situation, always trying to prove by keeping the bad, was horrendous this week. In school open when most of one instance, I saw three people Southeastern Wisconsin was closed bodily move a small car to get at down? Some professors couldn't their own. A security guard helped make it, and those who did, found with mine, as latecomers had themselves facing half-empty class- everyone else pinned in. Why would the "powers that be" needlessly subject their employees and students to hazardous driving conditions? (Kenosha County authorities evidently forget the existence of Parkside when setting highway-cleaning priorities.) If those people who wasted their time by coming on Monday and Tuesday could have stayed home, maybe the parking lots could have been adequately cleared by Wednesday. As it was, the entire week has been a nightmare. f ^ RANGER is written and edited by students of U.W. Parkside and they are solely responsible for its editorial policy and content.

Too many young kids before they have the maturity to deal with alcohol have access to it; access before they can really deal with it. Liz Williams A good idea. Maybe I don't feel that even at that age a person is capable of handling alcohol, but it's socially acceptable. I'm 19 and it wouldn't hurt me. The ones that are less responsible are punishing the whole. Ann Gottschalk Considering my little sister's experience it's a pretty good idea. They've gotten in a lot of trouble drinking. Robb l irehammer They should. It would eliminate a major source of drunk driving accidents. Sincerely, Pat Ruffalo U.S. INFERNAL REVENUE ^ Do^ov wflhtfo giv« NinonStOO?
