One way a student overcomes that is to make new friends, many times at parties in the resi- dence hall. This year there are strict rules and regula- tions aimed at restricting parties that are held in the residence halls. sheriff should be called," says Doug Wielgate, Acting Director of Campus Police. After .calling an RA to the scene, the party is broken up and 'the residents of that apartment are dealt with . After an incident report is written up, the students in- volved meet with DeAnn Pos- sehl, Director of Residential Life, to discuss the possibility of disciplinary actions . An •'academic and social atmosphere" is what Resis- dent Advisor (RA) Tracy Connors describes as the major purpose behind these rules. While some argue that this can be best attained through stiff regulations, others feel that the students should have more freedom to do what they want. , ture of the unlveraity itself has to be responsible to the needs of minority, faculty and students." By "culture of the untver- stty,' Stockwell said he is pri- marily referring to the cur- riculum and programming. As Vice Chancellor, he has many routine responsibilities, such as working with the uni- versity's faculty in hiring, policies, administration, budgets, salaries, equipment purchases, and administra- tive responsibilities. The problems he faces are thpse any new employee faces. i<" ,~·It's a big institution and It's tough to get acquainted with everybody," he said. "I'm still In the early stages of laying the founda- tion from which I will work." -"He'S·made a good start," commented Chancellor Sheila Kaplan, "He's a quick study, He's developing a good grasp of what the issues are, and what needs to be done." Kaplan noted that he Is spending a lot of time becom- Ing acquainted with the fac- ulty and learning about the issues on campus., Increased student aware- ness of alcohol problems rei .sulted last year following the death of Dan Hall.

This is equivalent to 1.7 cases of beer (24 cans in a case, 12 ounces per can). This could cause problems for residents that prefer to buy In bulk to save money. as well as for those students planning a party where legal drinkers may consume more than the 40 cans of beer allowed.

" , 2 Thursday, sept. 15, 1988 Ranger lour view I Parking hassles paid in full I'm sure that everyone has had trouble flnding a place to park now and then. Shopping malls, concerts or even neighborhoods can fill up and leave no parking spaces closer than three mUes away. Now do we have to add Parkslde to that list? We've heard reports on the radio and in the newspapers that enrollment is up this year. More students logically means more cars and less parking spaces. However, some students have found that if they arrive on campus later than 9:30 a.m. there Is NO place to park. These students have paid their $30.50 or $60 for white permits which allow the most freedom in parking, but find that UnIon, Comm Arts, Phy Ed and Tallent Hall are full and closed off with barricades. Is It fair to require students to pay so much money so that they can come to school and not have a place to park? We don't think so. Perhaps the unIversity should decide quickly whether or not they are going to build an additional parking lot for students. There used to be plenty of parking in the Tallent lot East (East of Tallent Hall) but that lot was built on unslable ground. As a result, students would find parking there treacherous. 1f not life-endangering, if they were in· What is the problem here? If the campus police know how many safe parking spaces there are on campus, we think they would have the courtesy to only sell as many permits as those lots can handle. Of course, one must take into account that there are night students who do not use the lot at normal hours, but when enrollment went up, did the campus police think the increase was in night students only? Information provided by the campus police shows that so far this year, 3436 permits (white and green, not in- cluding handicapped and reserved spaces jwere sold to students and faculty. Last year's tolal was 3372, only 64 more than last year. Where is the problem? It could be that because there are only 1922 "open" parking spots in the Tallent, Comm Arts, Union and Phy Ed lots. Figure it out - that means there will be two stu- dents vying for every parking spot on campus! We feel that the university should try to accommodate students as best they can. If this means selling unknowing students a permit to an already overloaded parking sys- tem, what kind of faith will these students have in the rest of the university system? Something needs to be done fast to accommodate these students who have basically just wasted their money on a useless rear-view mirror decora- tion. by Kelly McKissick .

Unfortunately, bureauoratrc red- tape delayed the pur- chase of equipment and broadcasting was not possible until mid-June. The radio sta- tion (WLBR) did broadcast throught the summer during the hours that the Union Recreation Center was open. At the June Senate meeting, the senate asked .ror written rules and guidelines from the people involved in the radio project. These guidelines are necessary to help limit liabil- ity and insure continued success for WLBR. Mter one month, the senate did not receive a report or any other type of reply from the people who had worked so hard to get the radio station on the air. In order to protect the students and insure the continued success of the radio station, the Senate wrote and passed the necessary guide- lines. These guidelines call for the creation of an unbiased board of directors. This board will meet and review all ap- plicants interested in the radio station. The board will - decide each year which stu- dents will be in charge of the radio station. After these guidelines were passed, the members of the radio project were informed and offered the opportunity to suggest revision and to apply for the jobs of their choice on the radio station. Although this opportunity was offered to the original committee before anyone else, we are yet to receive ap- plications from them. At this time I would like to again thank those people who worked to establish the radio station last year. I would also like to once again offer them the opportunity to apply lor the jobs of their choiceand bring their expertise back to WLBR. This perference isnot to exclude anyone whodid not previously work on the radio station. Everyone, experel- enced or not. is welcome to join at any time. We would like to resume broadcast in October so don't delay: the radio station manager will be chosen from applications re- ceived in the next few weeks. Jay Lewsndowsid PSGA Presidelll During the first week of this semester a contoversy has risen between the poepie who worked on the radio proj- ect last year and the office that created and funded them; Parkside Student Gov- ernment Association. Inc. As President of P.S.G.A., I would like to try to clear up a few things. From the first the idea of establishing a radio station was proposed, we knew that one day it would become an independent organization. Everyone involved has been working to establish the radio slatlon with the stability needed to grow and become a permanent part of the Park- side community. The radio station idea was first pro- posed by Alex Pettit, 1987-88 PSGA President. Under his term of office the project was initiated. The 87-88 Student Senate found an excess of $1400 in the PSGA budget,' which could be used to pur- chase the equipment neces- sary to begin broadcasting. Because the money used came directly from the stu- dents, the P.S.G.A.
