Schneeberger ' Editor Five students seeking the Parkslde Student Govern- ment Association (PSGA) presidency, and three seeking the vice-presidency. will par- ticlpate in a candidate debate on Monday, March 2, at 1 p.m. in Main Place. The debate, sponsored by the Ranger, will allow each candidate to address the issues he or she will under- take if elected. Elections will take place on March 9 and 10. The following students, listed alphabetically, have an- nounced their candidacy and will be taking part in the de- bate. Corbett Anderson, 21, Is seeking the office of vice- president. A junior political science/economics major f Anderson Is a member of the PSGA Information Resources Committee and a former Ranger staff writer. "I've been a part of the uni- versity for a few years now and bave had a chance to lis- ten to a number of student concerns, .. he says of his qualifications for the office. "I feel I should be elected so that I can put wbat I know about Parkslde to good use for all of us." Rich Borkowski, 23, Is a senior sociology major pursu- ing teacher certlflcation who's seeking the PSGA pres- idency. A member of sociolo- gy club, a campus ambassa- dor and a participant in ROTC, Borkowski believes students should have more representation on university committees. "As an officer in the Army National Guard," he says, "I have proved to be responsi- ble, dedicated and commit- ted. I feel this experience will also give me valuable lever- age in dealing with state as well as local officials." Dan Galbraith, 25, is a sen- ior seeking the office of presl- dent. An applied computer science major, his experience includes involvement with the Parkslde Activities Board (PAB), the dance ensemble and the Budget and Review Committee of SOC. "Through my past and cur- rent involvement at Parkside, I feel qualified to best repre- sent the student body." Gal- braith says. If elected, he'll "continue lobbying the Park- side administration to im- prove student positions on issues like tuition and nnan- cial aid cuts .' • Jim Laweil, Jr., 21, Is a sophomore international studies major vying for the president's post. A PSGA senator, he's also president of the Circle K Club, and a member of the International Studies and Polltical Science Clubs. If elected, "I would search out the needs and views of students and bring attention to them," Lawell says. "I do not consider this election a popularity contest; I know my record speaks for itself." Fred Monardi is seeking the vice-presidency and will discuss his views at the de- bate, but no information was available at press time. Alex Pettit, 20, is a senior business major running for president. He's done behind the scenes work for the Park. side Association of Communi- cators (PAC), and has worked extensively with the university's Microcomputer Lab. If elected, Pettit would "suggest a more equltable de- ferred tuition plan and ask for student participation in food service planning. I'I feel I am on a better level of understanding with most students here, given my work with the library, ,t Pettit says of his quatlflcations. Kay Rouse. f2, 18 a senior majoring in human bebavlor and society. Among other in- volvement, she's a PSGA jus- tice, president of the Interna- tional Studies Club and a campus ambassador. "Rather than use a direct, confrontational style of lead- ership," Rouse says. "I c.ndldstea _ /»SIft 4 brkside reacts to crisi~ AIDSforces students to examine sex practices by Amy H.

Some students may feel more comfortable expresefng their fears over the phone than voicing them face-to-face with someone at the Health center. Isenberg said that the Cen- ter follows the guidelines of the American College Health AssOCtation (A~) as out- lined in their booklet, "AIDS on the College campus: ACHA Special Report."

Four-year college a thing of past During his election campaign", Tommy· Thompson was hardly viewed by the publlc as the students' friend. Now that he's governor, that view Isn't likely to change. Last week. Thompson proposed a plan which would markedly raise full-time tuition at all UW-System schools for those students taking more than four years to gradu- ate. His rationale. as we interpret It. Is that students reo qulrlng extra time to receive their degrees are clogging up the educational system for other, more studious sorts. and as a result these loafers should be punished. Such reasoning Is as ludicrous. and dangerous, as the governor's proposal Itself. The days of college as an exclusively four-year journey are over. Today. with bachelor's degrees meaning less and less to employers since more and more people are at- taining' them, university experience Is no longer viewed simply as a place to obtsln a parchment and a sheepskin after eight semesters of poking your nose in a book. Instead. students seeking to maximize their educational opportw1ities now use college as a forum for attamtng ex- perience not related to bookwork. Internships, extern- ships. cooperative education and community outreach are just some of the practical means sought by today's truly serious students to arrive at a successful end: career em- ployment. It Is obvious. to everyone but Governor Thompson. that education of this type often requires more than the accus- tomed four year tour. It Is not. however, an occurence de- serving punishment the likes of that the governor has pro- posed. If anything. It Is something to be recognized and praised as an answer to the question, "HoW can I make myself more employable after acboot?" 'your views I Research not for sale To tbeEdllor After three weeks of library research. writing and edittng, I have finally completed my required collegiate skills re- search paper. To say the least. I was stunned to discover a service, which Is advertised right on my Comm Arts classroom bulletin board, that offers re- search papers for sale. "Qua1Jty guaranteed, 15,279 research papers to choose from." This company even allows you to use your :Mas. tercard or Vtsa to pay for an order. This upsetting discovery leaves me with many ques- tions. HoW could such afla': grant form of cheating be ad- vertised right in my class- room? Who is responsible for placing these advertisements on the classroom bulletin boards? And, why hasn't any- one removed these ads? As a student of the Univer- sity of Wisconsin System, I am deeply concerned. I don't belleve that this company has any right to place these ads here on the campus. I can only feel sorry for the stu- dents who choose to use this service. How can they expect to learn anything If they choose quick, easy solutions like this. I hope mine is not a minority opinion. and I would llke to see these ads removed. Now! Todd J. Niles j ~ I I I I I I UobodY..asked me, but" Let's get our priorities straight by Andy Buchanan It strikes me as very curt- ous that a group of relatively moderate students have col- lected a 3OO-name petition and propose to picket the Cof- fee Shoppe over a five cent cup of water. One protestor claims that student rights are being vio- lated. I doubt that's true. but even so, where are our prtort- ties? As a Parkslde student body, we are presently being con- fronted with a difficult and complex llst of problems. Our own university Board of Re- gents Is proposing the Iargest tuition increase in memory; financial aid cuts are extin- gulshlng the educational hopes of young. independent students; faculty governance is stonewalling on releasing evaluation forms and thereby supporting mediocrity in the classroom; an incredlbly wasteful and expensive book buying system operates so that perfectly good textbooks become worthless on the whim of an instructor. These are some of the more impor- tant Isuses being addressed by the student government, and I urge students to be- .come involved in trying to re- solve them. I've worked in student af- fairs for more than a few "-years and have noticed how we let the major issues pass us by and yet strike outtorce- fully at the trivial and in- consequential. When State Representative Jeff Neubauer visited the PSGA office to gauge student opinion on education issues, there were barely enough bodles to fill a sofa. When we are asked to pay $40 for a new edition of a textbook which Is essentially identical to the one previously used (and now useless), we comply with resignation. as if the Issue were unimportant. Faculty and administration by virtue of organization and experience, tend to dominate campus policy-making. This Is particularly true at the higher levels (e.g.· Admin. Council). where real policy Is set and students are carefully excluded. Students would be listened to with greater effect If they were more organized and would address the serious issues affecting their eduea- tlon. The student government exists to represent us in this regard.. and through its ot- fices I urge students to focus their activities on such issue5 as the release of teacher evaluation forms. Implement. ing a textbook rental system and getting equal representa· tion in campus governance. Organize the protests and petitions for better teaching and an education ordinary people can afford. This Is where your leadership can be effective. Regarding the cup and water Issue: The appropriate forum to address this ;neon· venience already exists· it Is the Union Advisory Board (PUAB). which was set-up specifically to addreSS stu' dent concerns in this area. - • ~~~~ is written a~d edit~d by students 91 UW-Parkside,who are solely responsible 'for its edj~orialpolt d y content lt ispublishedeveryThursdaydUringtheacademicyearexceptoverbreakS and hoi ays.
