More than ten candidates or speakers representing can­ didates for state legislative offices addressed Parkside students at the PSGA-spon- sored Meet the Campaign fo­ rums last week. "There were a number of attempts in the past legisla­ ture to raise the share of cost of your education," said Scott Fergus, Democratic candi­ date for the State Assembly's 61st (Northern Racine) Dis­ trict. "We can't look at increas­ ing that cost anymore," Fer­ gus continued. "Otherwise, what we are going to wind up doing is limiting access of lower income people to edu­ cational opportunities that usually wind being better for society as a whole." Norman Monson, Fergus' Republican challenger in the 61st Disctrict, thinks that taxes are the main issue. "We've got a great state here," Monson says, "but what's happened is that our governments, both state and local, have gotten little car­ ried away. Wisconsin resi­ dents are one of the five most taxed in the United States." For R. Frenchy Bouton, Re­ publican Assembly candidate in the 62nd (Southern Racine) District, the issues of taxes and business were of a differ­ ent color. According to Jim Bradley, who spoke on Bou- ton's behalf, "Business has a right to make a profit. Fren­ chy is a union man and uses common sense for the work­ ing people." Jeff Neubauer, Bouton's Democratic rival, also sup­ ports the working man, and would like to see more join those ranks. "I'm very much in favor of workfare meas­ ures that are designed to em­ power people who are on pub­ lic assistance to help them get jobs and become employ­ ed," he said. "It's good for the recipients, it's good for the state and it's good for the community because it has an­ other productive working citi­ zen." For candidates in the 63rd (Western Racine) District, employment figures took precedence. "Jobs are con­ tinuing to leave the state in droves," said Republican Jim Ladwig. "Sixty percent of our college graduates are leaving the State of Wisconsin to get jobs. This has got to be drawn to a halt; and the only way that's going to happen is if we provide jobs for them." Marilyn Nemeth, Ladwig's Democratic opponent, also believed lowering unemploy­ ment was important, adding that "the question in this election is whether we are going to have full time legis­ lative representation or are Campaign see page 2 National hopefuls give local perspective to big concerns by Suzanne Mantuano and Kelly McKissick National issues were given local perspective in speeches by gubernatorial and legisla­ tive candidates who attended the Parkside Student Govern­ ment Association-sponsored Meet the Campaign forums last week. "Ed Garvey believes that the federal government has a responsibility to support high­ er education," said Mike Serpe, who spoke on behalf of the Democratic candidate for the United States Senate. "We need to make programs accessible to all children, in­ cluding those of lesser means in Wisconsin and around the nation. "The gap between the rich and the poor has widened," Serpe continued. "Ed Garvey knows our real security rests on a healthy economy and vi­ brant communities, not on more and more military spending and weapons sys­ tems." Sharon Metz, a Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, addressed the budget issue. "We (Wisconsin) have done something that the federal government cannot and will not do," she said. "We have balanced the budget. Tony Earl and Sharon Metz are committed to keeping this state in the black, and to not raising tuition." Continuing on the subject of education, Metz said she has respect for higher education. "The university and the busi­ ness climate cannot be sepa­ rated," she indicated. "One of the reasons that businesses are able to attract their em­ ployees here is that they be­ come Wisconsin residents and their children are able to come into the finest univer­ sity systems in this nation at a very affordable price." A candidate for the First Ditrict seat in the U.S. House of Representatives also spoke at the forums. The Republi­ can challenger to incumbent Les Aspin, Iris Petersen said that "we can feed this world. We can work around political barriers. We can have a pros­ perous agriculture and a prosperous country. Agricul­ ture is just one of the areas in the deficit that we must ad­ dress, and I believe that I am uniquely qualified to do so." photo by Loo Bose Peter Barca, Democratic candidate for Wisconsin State As­ sembly in the 64th District, was one of many who spoke at PSGA's Meet the Campaign forums last week. Homecoming King and Queen voting set for next week Voting for this week's Homecoming King and Queen will be held Thursday, Oct. 9 and Friday, Oct. 10 with a special primary election. The primary is being in­ stituted as a change this year since so many clubs are spon­ soring candidates. Of the 10- 15 hopefuls for the crowns, five will be selected to com­ pete in the final voting, to take place the following week. In next week's Ranger, look for pictures and profiles of each candidate to help you make your important voting decision. This year, the voting proce-1 dure is going to be altered, so that winners will no longer be determined by the collection of pennies. While details of the new voting procedure were not available at press time, they will be posted at the voting area in the Molina- ro Concourse, with pictures of each candidate also on dis­ play. Remember, your vote can make a difference. I THOUGHT WE ARMS CONTROL . ..o -TI\AP ' . RANGER Editorial What does apathy say about Many of you are probably sick and tired of hearing about the topic addressed here. So are we. That topic is apathy on this campus, and it's been dra­ matized and discussed by Just about everyone since clas­ ses began. But before you dismiss this as yet another exercise in didacticism, stop to consider why concerned campus groups have been spotlighting Parkside's apathy. Last week represents a fine example of why this univer­ sity's lack of Interest and involvement is such a weighty issue. Last week was when the Parkside Student Govern­ ment Association (PSGA) sponsored its Meet the Cam­ paign forums; it was also a week where candidates who came here to speak found themselves playing to meager crowds more suited for a Tupperware party than a public political forum. Forget about the possible causes for such a sickening turnout; they're mostly lame excuses we've heard before. Instead, focus attention on what last week's pitiful show­ ing tells the community about our school. It Indicates that, as an institution, we're haplessly and hopelessly reckless with regard to our future. In simpler terms, we just don't give a damn. We don't care enough about matters like tuition increases or politi­ cal campaigns to sacrifice half of our lunch hours or to miss "All My Children." We're content to luxuriate in our ignorance and let decisions about our lives be made with none of our input. Letter Innsbruck is To the Editor: I would like to further ex­ pand on the Ranger article "Apply to study in Inns­ bruck" appearing 9/26/86. I participated in the UNO-IN­ NSBRUCK program this sum­ mer and it was truly the ex­ perience of my life. There is no better place to attend a study abroad pro­ gram than at the University of Innsbruck in Austria. The surroundings, course curricu­ lum, program activities, and teaching excellence make this one of the best programs around. The program offers more than 70 courses in many dif­ ferent academic areas, many of which are fully accredited by Parkside as long as they are pre-approved by the divi­ sion chairman. All courses are taught in English by pro­ fessors from primarily the University of New Orleans or the University of Florida. In addition to the education you receive through the cour­ ses, you get the oportunity to great experience the culture and lifestyle of the natives of Aus­ tria. The program owes much Qf its success to the compe­ tence of its director, Carl Wagner; the dedication of the student workers; and the teaching excellence of its staff. Most of the class weeks are four days long, which allows ample time to travel around Europe. On the weekend you may find yourself Whitewater rafting down the Inn River, skiing in the Swiss Alps, shop­ ping in Italy, touring Holland,. para-sailing in Nice, celebrat­ ing the 4th of July at an authentic beer garden in Ger­ many, or even having an in­ teresting encounter on the train. If you have the opportunity, want to study abroad, are looking to make many new friendships, and want to have the time of your life, the pro­ gram offered by the Univer­ sity of New Orleans is the one for you. Alan Davidove Letter Food service leaves bad taste To the Editor People of Parkside, PLEASE WAKE UP!!! What has happened to the food service here? I'm refer­ ring to increased cost, lower quality, decreased availabl- ity, lack of service and forced food purchases. The cost of select items has Increased beyond the rate of inflation in a three month pe­ riod (May to August). Bread- sticks: 25* to 35* - up 40% (and inches shorter). Salads: 99* to $1.09 — up 10%. Salad Bar: 12*/oz. to 14*/oz. — up 17%. Fish-n-chips: $1.49 to $1.69 — u p 13%. This is only a partial list of unacceptable in­ creases of the most popular foods. The quality of many food products has decreased. A prime example is the pizza in the Union Square. Last semester a pizza had crisp crust, gooey cheese and tasty sausage. This semester's pizza has a cardboard crust, very little cheese, dried-up sauce, and greasy, uncooked sausage. Decreased availability of food and a lack of service are evident in the cafeteria, espe­ cially during the evening hours. The salad bar and coff­ ee pot are often depleted. When I asked for more toma­ toes, I was told there were none; when I asked for a fresh cup of coffee, I was told that it wasn't worth it to make another pot. You will also be lucky to find soup after 5:30. In addition, hardly a day goes by when the yo­ gurt selection consists of something other than "plain." Most striking, students liv­ ing in the residential halls are required to buy a food plan. In other words, students are being forced to buy a poor quality service. The underly­ ing assupmtion of this "logic" is that college students are not capable of budget man­ agement nor preparing meals for themselves other than beer and Wheaties. On the other hand, one can assume that somebody is making a pretty penny off this "logic." What does this all mean? Last year, a new food service contract was signed. This new contract should have stipulated gradual price in­ creases and maintenance of quality. But it did not do th is or it is not being implemen­ ted, and as usual, the stu­ dents are the ones taken for a ride on this deal. "Brown baggin' it Meet the Campaign Campaign from page 1 we going to have someone there just part time? " Peter Barca, the only 64th (Northern Kenosha) District candidate to appear at the PSGA forum, addressed an issue close to Parkside's heart. "I think you're going to see tuition go up slightly in the next ten years, but I also think that we need to tie tui­ tion to the level of student aid. If you're going to raise tuition, then I think then I think you have to make sure there is more aid available." And for Don Walsh, the only State Senate candidate to appear, the education issue was also important. "I deve - oped a program called indi­ vidual education accounts, Walsh, the 21st (Racinepuri­ ty) Republican said. Tney clmllor tn TRAs. but in 2 Thursday, October 2, 1986 Gary L.
