Malfunctions concern many elevator users , by S11zaDDeMantliano Recent reported Incidents of elevator malfuncUoning on campus have inconvenienced students to the point of hav- Ing to miss class and have proven expensive to repair. On Oct. 8, at approximately 4: 30 p.rn., campus police reo celved a telephone call from a person stuck in an elevator. It took the maintenance work- ers approximately 15 minutes to rescue the vicUrn from the elevator. This Incident Is just the first of eight elevator fan. ures to be reported to the campus police. On Oct. 13 Wayne L: Duke, a handicapped student, was rescued from the Greenquist elevator. Duke also mention- ed that he has been stuck In the elevator six Urnes this semester. He was forced to miss class each time because of the elevator fanures. "Out of the 13 elevators on campus some do fall more than others." said John Kreg- er. facUlties engineer. •'The elevators don't fall more fre- quently than most." There are many types of maintenance work performed on all of the elevators to try and prevent failures. There Is a maintenance program to help prevent any breakdowns within the elevators and each year the elevators are also in. spected by the state. "The esUrnated cost Is $12,000 a year for one hour a month of prevenUve mainte- -nance," said Jack DUdley, dl- rector of facilities manage- ment. "We spent $3,000 last year on cables alone." When the elevators break down, repairmen must be called In to fix them. Actual repair Urne takes anywhere from one to three hours of manual labor. Untn a repair person can come, an out of order sign is placed on the malfunctioning elevator. •'Normally, I would expect a repairman by noon the: 'next day. If the elevators fall they Elevators see page 3 SOClobbies for major organization status by K1mberlle Kranich News Editor eoun Th e Student Organizations eu (SOC) will try to up. grade Itself to major organl- zatlon status by the end of ::m semester, according to Serpe, SOC chairman. CurrenUy, Serpe and Vlce- ChairmanDon Harmeyer are ~orklng together on a new OC constltuUon. Once the conStltuUon Is finished it ~~st be raUfied by SOC,' and dc~t It senators from Par-kat- Cia UdentGovernment Asso- It ~n (PSGA) also approve pielee Process will be com. ilia °d and SOC will have sl r organization status. CIU~ represents over thirty arno Whose membership stud~~ to ten percent of the SUch .body. It sponsors .. !I major on-campus events Carni°mecomlng and Winter SCllle:,1,and organized this SOC ller s Recruitment Fair. COrnrn~tt currently a standing "SOCee of PSGA. Is the umbrella I:roup and governing body for all clubs and organizations on campus," said Serpe. "It guarantees that all clubs have a policy that allows every student to join that club. " . Based on the university flow chart, there are curt-en- tly four organizations on earn- pus that have ~major status: Parkside ActlvlUes Board (PAB), PSGA, Ranger and Peer Support Organization (PSOl. "Major group status is gen- erally granted to. student groups which provide pro- grams and/or services to the entire student body and do not have an academic ?epart. mental focus or a speclaltzed- /human interest at the core of their existence," according to the Student Organizations Handbook. Serpe feels that SOC meets the above criteria. SOC is dif- ferent from other organlz~i tlons In its category Inditha\lY receives funding rec. from Segregated UniverSIty HI think we deserve the respect major status would give us. Now time for SOC." Fees Allocations Committee (SUFAC). Other organiza- tlons receive their funding from SOC. According to Serpe, grant- Ing SOC major status would have advantages to both stu- dents who belong to SOC and .for students whose clubs are represented by SOC, "1 think that going major status will help increase the sense of pride for those stu- dents in SOC," said Serpe. The biggest advantage for those students whose clubs are represented would be in the area of budgets. Under the current constituUon, five percent of a club's budget Is docked when a representative fans to attend an SOC meet- ing. Also under the current constitution, approval trme for reallocaUon of club funds takes anyewhere form six to eight weeks. "Theoretically, under the new constitution," said Serpe, "approval for reallocation of funds could take as little as two weeks and penalizing clubs for missing meetings would be done away with." Serpe Is confident that un- like 1984 when SOC appealed for major status and failed, this year the appeal will be granted. However, Adrian Serrano, PSGA president, won't take a stand either way. "To me It's like letting a child go because they've been under the protective wing of PSGA and now they're ap- pealing to move out of the house. If the senate deems that they're grown up enough, we're going to let them go." "1 think we (SOC) deserve the respect that major status would bring us. There isn't an administrative area on cam- pus that hasn't at one time or another In the last year come to me specifically or SOC generally asking us to be a part of something, " said Serpe. "Parkslde is on the brink of major student involvement," said Serpe, "and any chance we can take to make people feel better about themselves in terms of Involvement, now Is the Urne to do It. Now Is the Urne for Soc to become major status." t ThU=. November 6, 1986 ~ SOC deserves major status The Student Organl2ation CouncU (SOC) ts the body which ovenees the activities of aU clubs and organtza- t!orUI active at Parkslde. t Pia d past its duties were limited at bes . gue In years tent •leadership and a somewhat hazy state- by ~~ rpoae the councll was not very effective In ~ruI::.,r and ~tlng students In a concerted errort to lpur extra.currtcular involvement. For this reason, its campus-wide status was equaUy restricted. . Recently, however, SOC has evolved into a more orga:~ lied more active more representative body. Buoyed Y ~ leadership 'and a renewed sense of mtsston, it has :"cceeded where Its predecessers have not: It has fulfilled Ita status as the umbrella organl2ation which channels new Ideas and new members to the clubs it represents, sponsoring recruitment fairs and meetings to sllmulate atudent Interest and commitment. • One thing that has remained the same. despite SOC s aolldlJled role In the university community. Is Its status. Presentiy just a subcommittee of the Parkslde Student Government Aaaoclation (PSGA). SOC Is llmlted In Its ac- uvtues by the restrictions such an arrangement dictates. Not only muat It operate out of an already cramped office. It must also submit Its meeting minutes to the PSGA Sen- ate for approval. although many senators have little Idea what goes on within the organl2ation. We beUeve Urne to be of the essence in SOC's being granted new status as a major, autonomous organization. The strides toward growth It has made over the last two years demand that It now be freed to pursue further grow- th and Innovation. Ita accompUshments to this point are commendable. Even more good could be done for Parkslde If SOC were granted Its next logical step forward. J&1W Other accessibility To the Editor: A few weeks ago you prtn- ted a letter from a wheel- chaIr·bound student ask1ng what Parkslde was doing to Improve accesslblllty. You then printed Mr. Dudly's reply. Hl.s concern focused on major alterations in the facU- lty but outlined some Interim projects. I would like to chal- lenge the Ranger to do some serloua Investigative report- Ing on Just what faclllUes and services are available for handicapped and/or disabled students and staff. Who are the handicapped/disabled and dJ.tterenUy abled? How many such penons are there here? What are their needs? What 18available for them? The College. too. could use some serious consciousness raising on this Issue. To begin with. there Is no listing for handicapped. or disabled services In the College cata- logue. There Is no coUege publication, that I am aware of. describing services for this population. The college catalogue pro- motes the attractiveness of the campus and its facilities (for the able). For the handi- capped or differently abled person It Is a hosllle and pain- ful environment. To some, it simply says, "Don't come here." Exclusion: Have you ever seen a blind student on cam- pus? Or a hearing impaired person? The physical plant simply does not address their needs. So, if you are blind or hearing impaired you have to go to UW-Mllwaukee. What about Senior- Citizens? If Parkside Is concerned about faUlng enrollments. what could It offer to this pep- ulation, beside non-credit "courses" if it could meet their age specific needs?

Parking: For those with limited disability In mobility there are two parking lots which will hold perhaps a dozen cars. Neither is really convenient for access to classrooms. faculty offices. Library. bookstore or Student Servicews. 'And, "if these two disabled spots are full. then you would have to park In the regular parking lot stalls". For some, that means, forget it, go home. There was an unused paved space In front of Motinaro Hail which could have been converted to hold. maybe. six more vehicles and would have greaUy facilitated ac- cess for a few more differ- ently abled persons.

Let me thank aU students and staff members who co- operated to make the U.N.I.C.E.F. charity dance on oct. 31 a success. Over $300.00 was raised for U.N.I.C.E.F. through this week twelve bicycle racks were installed proViding the easiest access on campus to the most fit and able. But. during the week. I noticed only one bike there once. Toilet facilities: Has any- one seen a blue and white dis- abled sign indicating the presence of such accomoda- tlons at Parkslde? The only blue and white signs you see indicate telephone locations (and phones placed at stand- ard height). Must have been a bargain at a rummage sale. In bathrooms. the handi- capped facility Is not marked and may be used by the able With no notice that a disabled . student may be waiting.
