Early Registration This April An early registration program, which allows students to select their courses a semster in advance, will go into effect in April at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. Timetables will be available the first week of April for the early Fall and Summer registration sessions on the 17th and 18th of April. The two weeks between the release of the course schedules and the registation sessions are set aside as the time for student-faculty consultation about each student's class selections. A university spokesman said the plan allows students a better selection of courses to choose from, an expanded opportunity to consult with faculty members about academic pro­grams and, for newly entering students, full use of campus facilities from the time of registration. The plan applies both to undergraduate and graduate stu­dents. Fees are not due until the fall. Continuing students will register on the 17th and 18th of April and new students on the 20th of April. Persons enrolling at UW-Parkside for the first time must apply for admission by March 30th to allow time for processing of their application if they wish to register on April 20th. Additional early registration dates will be June 29, July 27 and August 29 for both new and continuing students. All registra­tion sessions will be in Main Place of Wyllie Library-Learning Center. Questions and Answers on Campus Food Service by Thomas Jenn When you talk with a friend who attends another college, a question you inevitably ask is "how's the food?". An answer of "awful" is not uncommon and often expected. If someone were to ask you to rate the food served at Parkside, what would you say? Would you say you're getting decent quality food at a reasonable price? Nearly everyone the RANGER talked to found something wrong with the food served here, yet the general concensus was that Parkside food is alright—for a college. "We've had some complaints," admits Fred Moore, manager of SAGA Foods, the company which handles manual food service at UW-P and some other UW schools, "But I can't say they've been excessive. They've been centered primarily around our fast-food area not being hot." The problem with fast-foods is that it is not always in the best interest of the customers (those who spend 70c only to receive a cold hamburger). Other complaints range from soggy bread and outdated milk to dirty forks and long waiting lines. High prices, non-fresh food (especially at night), and over promotion of coke sales are more. If these problems were found in a restaurant, you might not dine there. Why then, do students eat here? "I have no choice," laments one student standing in line at the Coffee Shop, "it's the only ball game in town." "People think just because it's a college they have to accept bad food" reasons one girl staring distastefully at an egg salad sandwich she just bought. Comparing SAGA Foods to a typical restaurant, Fred Moore confesses "I don't think we're as good as they are—they can control the environment a little better than we can." , Nonetheless, he is very satisfied with the values his food service has to offer. "For the money, you can't buy a better bowl of soup in Kenosha/Racine county. Our cold sandwiches are some of the best deals in the state. They're below (in cost) what we should be selling them for." Moore praises the cook for her good work: "I've never been disappointed by her. Once in a while we'll have a dried out product and we'll have to pullit off the line.' But he sees this as a rarity and says of the whole operation, "the food you get at Parkside, for the money, (is) among one of the best deals in the state."

A very limited number of tickets is available at $6 each at the Campus Union Information Center. A compelling figure on state in flamboyant caftans or dashikis, accompanying herself on a guitar, topped off with a burning stick of incense, Odetta calls American folk music "unique" because it is derived from the music of immigrants from many lands which became "a blend of all people's music." Classically trained as a vocalist, she became enchanted with folk music as a young woman. In 1950, she made her initial professional appearance as a folk artist at San Francisco's Hungry i before moving to a long engagement at the Tin Angel. From there, she moved to the Blue Angel in New York where she first met Harry Belafonte and Pete Seeger, musicians who have remained close personal and professional friends. In addition to club dates, recitals at colleges and universities, and solo concerts the world over, including Europe, U.S.S.R., Japan, Africa, and Israel, highlights of her versatile career have featured recitals at both carnegie and Town Halls; a performance for the late President John F. Kennedy; participation in the re-opening festivities at Ford's Theatre, Washington, D.C.; performances with the Milwaukee and St. Louis Symphony Orchestras; and Gersh­win concerts in Germany. She was chosen to represent folk music on the recent PBS special on "Great Singers" of popular music. During the past few years, Odetta has broadened her artistic scope with featured performances in Arthur Miller's "The Crucible" at Stratford, Ontario and Paul Zindel's "The Effects of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Mari­golds" at Halifax, Nova Scotia. She has made numerous TV guest appearances and made her screen debut opposite Lee Remick and Yves Montand in Tony Richardson's film, "Sanctuary." The recipient of several honorary degrees, including the Duke Ellington Fellowship Award from Yale University, Odetta has appeared at the Newport Jazz Festival in New York, the New Orleans Festival, Philadelphia Folk Festival, and the John Henry Folk Festival in Wheeling, West Virginia. Wednesday March 28, 1979 HANGER 2 Letters to the Editor Happel Supported To the Editor: This letter is in reference to the tenure denial of Marv Happel by Assistant Chancellor Lorman Ratner. I have been a student at Parkside for three years now and have been both impressed and optimistic with the official mission of this school—a school of modern industry. (The integration of Business and Social Science disciplines to the care, well being, and continuance of the modern industrial society of which our country is the leader.) I have though, been cautiously awaiting the integration of rhetoric with action. The firing of Marv Happel confirms 'my worst fear—that a large gulf exists between what is said and what is done. For six years Marv Happel has been an integrating force between the University (Academic) and the communities surrounding it (Indus­trial Society), which, by definition, is the purpose and goal of this Institution. Mr. Happel was my teacher-advisor in the University Year for Action program. This program placed University students in social services organizations -in both Racine and Kenosha for 1 year -certainly an integration of community needs an academic performance. He did this even though he was quite busy with teaching his classes (which won him six years of praise from his fellow faculty) and campaigning for his successful election to the Racine School Board. Marv Happel has consistently received high ratings by his colleagues during the yearly evaluations done here. Mr. Ratner states that Happel's creative and teaching activities are "of insufficient quality." If that is so, then why wasn't that detected by the faculty evaluation committee during the last six years? Instead, Marv's teaching has been described by his department as "superb, extraordiharily successful," and "an excellent model." The recommendation for a 1974 merit raise included: "Marv Happel added a dimension to our faculty and our university which was greatly lacking. His skill with and sensivities to minority populations in the community will give us all much needed, encouragement to respond to human wants and educational needs of all the people in our service area..." In 1975 it said: "His skills and training make him admirably prepared for his teaching in social studies, value clarification and multi-cultural society which all deal heavily with questions of values and moral issues." These are very close to the needs of our communities. So as far as Mr. Ratner's critique of Mr. Happels abilities, the above serves as testimony of a man whose dedication and committment to the realization of the University's dream has yet to be excelled by any other professor. This begs the question of why (with the available information that contradicts Mr. Ratner's claims) has Mr Happel been denied tenure by the Assistant Chancellor over and above the high recommenda­tions of the faculty committee that is set up to do the research necessary for an intelligent decision regarding the balance between the performance of a professor and the needs of our University and surrounding communities? I am most frightened that Mr. Ratner's decision reflects more of a RANGER is written and edited by students of U.W. Parkside and they are solely responsible for its editorial policy and content.

I am amazed, appalled, and insulted not only by the decision but by the lack of any comprehensive statement providing the soundness of his decisions being, in the long and short run, in the best interest of the students at Parkside and the communities it serves. In my opinion, the justication for denial should be as complete as Professor Happel's required justifi­cation for tenure. Normally this is not needed, but then again, this is no normal tenure denial. Anything less, Mr. Ratner, will expose your true intentions. Yours for a peaceful world, Buzz Merrick Keep Politics Out To the Editor, Marv Happel, Education Pro­fessor at UW-Parkside, is under attack by the administration. He was not granted tenure by the Dean of Faculty Lorman A. Ratner - for political reasons. His teaching rating throughout his six year career at Parkside has been outstanding. Can we let go of a fine teacher because he has" tried to organize the faculty and has stood-up for student rights? Marv has been actively involved in the community, focusing on multi-cultural educa­tion. He has consistently been a compassionate and humane educa­tor, and aren't those the criteria from which the tenure decision should be made? LET'S KEEP POLITICS OUT OF TENURE (We want good teachers) Jane Freeman H. Darnell Mason New Majors Approved University of Wisconsin-Park-side's second graduate program—a Master of Public Service Admin­istration (MPSA)—and two new undergraduate majors in Applied Computer Science and Humanities has received final approval by the UW System Board of Regents. MPSA The MPSA graduate program, offered full or part-time, will offer specializations in Local Govern­ment Administration and Social Services Administration. The program is designed for profession­als already employed and those who seek a career in public service. Courses will be offered primarily evenings and weekends. A full-time student should be able to complete the program in two years or less, depending upon previous academic work, profes­sional experience and career goals. A part-time students might need up to four years to complete the program; more it extensive work in undergraduate foundation courses is needed. The MPSA program coordina­tor, William J. Murin, associate professor of political science, said applications for admission to the program will be accepted immedi­ately. Those wishing more information and application mater­ials. should contact Murin at 553-2316 or the Office of Graduate Programming, 553-2368. Applied Computer Sei The Applied Computer science (ACS) major could be taken alone or combined with a double major in such fields as business, mathe-matices, chemistry, physics 0r applied science. The current job market, and future projections, are very good for college graduates who combine traditional fields with computer backgrounds, according to program planners. UW-Parkside has extensive computer capability, with facilities linked directly to a UNIVAC llio A number of faculty from different fields of study are actively involved in coinputer-related courses and projects and will form the faculty for the new major. Humanities -The Humanities major will draw most of its curriculum from courses currently being offered in commu­nication, English, modern lang­uages, music, art, history and philosophy as well as from humanities courses bridging several fields of study. Such humanities offerings as ideas and art of western civilization, film studies, music and art appreciation, futuristic^ history of man and comparative religions have traditionally been among UW-P's most popular courses, particularly with adult part-time students. Lake ACS, the human­ities major will draw from existing faculty in different fields.
