UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document Professor Reeves' new biography hits best seller list Professor Thomas Reeves by Latesha N. Jude News Editor "Does it make any difference what a person's character is in the White House? Can you trace character in presidential politics? These are just a few of the question UW-Parkside Professor Thomas C. Reeves thought to himself when he wrote the biography: "A Question Of Character: A life of John F. Kennedy" (The Free Press, $24.95) Thomas Reeves, a History Professor at theU niversity of Wisconsin- Parkside since 1970 spent seven years researching, writing and attaining evidence for his biography gathering. Reeves new biography is on the real character of the 35th former President John F. Kennedy. The biography illustrates the true JFK personality. Reeves states, " I wanted to find out who he really was and when I discovered who he was, I can trace it in the administration." Herbert S. Parmet, abook critic and Author of JFK: The Presidency of John F. Kennedy and Jack: The Struggles of John F. Kennedy states that "Even those who think they know JFK will find this book impossible to put down. It is clearly the most provocative and compelling account of the reality behind the 'CameloL' Whatever one's personal regard for the man and his presidency, ProfessorReeves raises the question that cannot be dismissed." Reeves added, "The JFK biography has been selling very well. I am very pleased. The book was on the New York Times Top 10 best selling books for 8 weeks. And the book will soon sell 100,000 copies in hardback. Then the paperback edition willcomeout" said Reeves. Since the completion of the bode Reeves has been quite busy. He went on a tour of the East and West Coast for television shows, and radio interviews. He has appeared on two "Phil Donahue" shows, the 'Today Show", and "Larry King Live." In addition to the TV Shows, he was also interviewed by 30 Radio Stations. The History Book Club and the National Book Club made it a National Selection for the month of July, which was not part of the 100,000 copies sold. After completing "A Question Of Character: A life of John F. Kennedy," Reeves stated that, "JFK is a complex man, and not nearly rhetoric and intelligent as we thought" Reeves goes cm to add that the bode is filled with many indecisions inJ FK's life. Reevesa dds, "I was very saddened to see how JFK really was. The Book is not all negative, but a lot of it is." Onepositivenote is thatReeves lways mentions UW-Parkside whoever he goes. Whether it be radio stations interviews or talk show appearances. Reeves feel that it is important to mention smaller schools such as UW-Parkside because they rarely getpublicity. Bookstore buyback procedure Union reconstruction finish delayed leaves many unsatisfied Union Square reconstruction goes past completion date by Latesha N. Jude News Editor If a student buys a New World Regional Geography Book for $49.95 ,and uses the book throughout first semester, when he returns the same book to the bookstore, why does he only get$25.00only if the school is using the book for 2nd semester and if the school is not, the student only receives S 12.25. Is this a rip off o r is there some logic to it? Daniel Turk, a sophomore at UW-Parkside added," I think it isa rip off when you sell the books back. We should rent the textbooks instead of selling them." According to Nancy Schroeder, Manager of the UWParkside's Bookstore, "You can buy a book for $50.00 use it for a semester, then when the semester is over, you can sell the same book back to the bookstore." Schroeder adds, "This is the service we offer for students. It's like buying a coat You wear it all semester, and you can't take it back." When students sell back their books, they get 50% of the new price and the bookstore marks it up so that students are buying used books for25% less than new books. Schroeder reiterates, "Students use the book for studying for tests, getting class credit, and when the class Continued on Page 2 By Susan Luepkes News Writer The reconstruction of the University of Wisconsin Parkside Union Square is now expected to be finished in the middle of October due to a six week delay caused by a rebid of local contractors. Although the Union Square has adequately satisified its purposes in the past, the Union Square has always encountered difficulties. The Union Square has experienced problems in the past as well which caused a distracting atmosphere as a result of dim lighting, unfavorable acoustics attributable to the open grids in the ceiling; and more importantly, the limited space in the food service areas. The Union felt that the expression in its present mode was outdated. "We need to keep up with the styles and designs. It is important to do thise very ten to fifteen years," states Bill Niebuhr, director of theUW-Parkside Union. "We're ready for a new change, and now we are finally getting it". The new additions that will supplement UW-Parkside's Union Square in middle October will include a ramp for the disabled, four accessways to the lower level, and a two tier railing system. The UW-Parkside Union Squarewill also receive a remodeled stage with side pockets that will take in the curtains when opened. The Union Square will install taller tables with stools to enable better viewing for those who sit in the back. Furthermore, the Union Square will add an entranceway to an outdoor patio in which fu ture social events will be held. For theUnion Bar.thebarhead selection will decrease from its usual six to the three most popular ones. Also, the back ofthe bar will be designed to contain hard liquor to adapt to suitable social settings. Niebuhr describes the new design of the Union Square as a "technical/industrial look". "It has a new atmosphere in its flexibility. Hopefully, more will use it, the faculty and staff as well as the students". Although the main concern might be the de gree of inconvenience, Niebuhr and Diane Welsh, UW-PaiksideAssistantDirectorof Student Life, wants to assure students that there will be little if any Continued on Page 2 UW-Parkside student class rankings Soirer CtoMirffcflialSI. !W1 « September 5,1991 IN THE NEWS.

Schroeder added that "the bookstore sells it to die National Used Buyer when we don't need the book for the upcoming semester or if we don't have copies for it" Some students haveotheropinions. BruceA.Retston, a junior at UW-Parkside states that, "At other universities the rental fee for texts is included in the tuition fee and an option to buy the text at the end of the semester is also offered, this is more convenient with a lowercosL" According to a poster entitled, "A world to the Wise: Get the Most for your Textbooks!" things to consider when selling back used books - If your book has been adopted for the next term the bookstore will pay you 50% of the new list price, until they have bought the number needed for the next term's use. After that, wholesale prices will be offered for those books. The earlier an adoption is received from the instructor, the sooner they can pay 50% for it. Students anxiously await to purchase textbooks for fall semester If your book has not been If you have an old edition the adopted for the hext term, without old edition has no retail value and an official adoption for your book, the bookstore will not buy it Used the bookstore will sell and ship itto books kept for sale in the store for used book wholesalers, who offer the next term will be priced at7 5% lower prices (10-33%), based on of the new list price. Used Book Buying Guides. Some students are not pleased with the bookstore policy. Ken Schuh, President of Parkside Student Government, stated that "at every campus, students have three basic problems, parking, food service, and textbook prices." To help alleviate this problem, The UW-Parkside Student Government Association is proposing a new textbook information system. The proposed program will begin in November, for book purchases to be used during second semester. This service will require students to fill out a ca rd in the PSGA office containing information on the book they wish to sell, the course number, asking price, theirphone number, and other contact information. The information will then be listed in order by course number in an advertisement in The Ranger News (December 12,1991 issue). Basically, PSGA will collect textbook info, and place an ad in The Ranger News. This program still requires PSGA senate approval." The bookstore will be open on Monday thru Thursday from 9:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m and on Friday's the bookstore will be open at 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. Continued from Page 1 at all. "Instead of using theUnion Square, we will be using the dining halls for the dini ng of clubs", states Welsh. This year's fall outdoor picnic will be held in the front of the Union. "The biggest problem will be adjusting for room, especially during food hours", Niebuhr explains. However, the UW-Parkside's food service department will make adjustments during the construction. TheUnion dining room will be open until 10 pm, while the bazaar's hours will be from 11 to2 pm. The deli and coffee shoppe's hours will stay the same. "There will be a slight inconvenience during the lunch hours. But I think students will be optmistic about the positive effects that the changes in October will bring. The optimism will outweigh the frustruation", says Welsh. According to Welsh, theUWPiaikside Union is likely to lose money during the ieconstrustion. The main reason being the food service's loss in production. September 5,1991 News THE RANGER NEWS, Page 3 UW-Parkside to suffer from budget cuts By Dave Doherty News Editor In an attempt to make up $31,000,000 the State Legislature has cut from the University of Wisconsin System budget, the University of Wisconsin-Parkside will have to reallocate $300,000 to $600,000in funds over the next few years. The UW System needs the $31 million in order to meet it's commitment to catch-up pay for faculty and computer system updating. In order to do this each UW System school will have to cut expenses. UW-Parkside's share will be between $300,000 a nd $600,000. "Our goal is to make the changes with as little disruption as possible. We're not looking at layoffs, but if someone were to retire we may not replace them." Sheila Kaplan Chancellor Over the next year UW-Paikside will be looking at ways to reallocate funds. "We've got to find those dollars within our own budget," said UW-Parkside Chancellor Sheila Kaplan. UW-Parkside Student Government president Ken Schuh commented," Over the next two years students will be facing a 3.4% increase int uition. It's likely this could increase in the next UW System biennial budget." Kaplan does not think the students will notice any changes because of these cuts. "Our goal is to make the changes with as little disruption as possible. We're not looking at layoffs, but if someone were to retire we may not replace them." According to Kaplan UWParkside must consider patterns of enrollment and the strengths of it's programs before making any decisions on budget cuts. ir, University of Wisconsin-Parkside 900 Wood Road Box 2000 Kenosha, W153141-2000 Welcome, The beginning of another academic year is upon us at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.

I urge you to support your newspaper. Study hdrd and enjoy your year at UW-Parkside! Sheila Kaplan Chancellor University of Wisconsin-Parkside New career move beneficial for Melodie Thompson by Latesha N. Jude News Editor The Minority Recruitment Program Manager, Melodie Lynn Thompson left UW-Parkside's Student Enrollment Services as a Program Manager in mid-August. Thompson's decision was based on a job opportunity her husband received from Brown University in Rhode Island. Thompson's career at UWParkside started in the summer of 1988 as a n Enrollment Specialist following with a promotion in 1990 to Program Manager. Cynthia Jensen, co-worker of Thompson, and a Program Manager of Student Enrollment Services states, "Melodie was very serious in her professional life. She is very goal oriented and always found a way to meet the challneges before you. I have known her since the summer of 1988. It has been a pleasure working with her." Thompson states "die responsibility of a Program Manager is to develope, create, and implement comprehensive minority recruitment plans for UW-Parkside." While in office Thompson expressed," I have done minibranches involving currentstudents in the recruitment activity. I have also provided acitvities throughout the year to respective high schools in which these activities have expanded throughout Southeastern Wisconsin." Thompson feels that one main duty of a Program Manager is that it entitles working with pre-college students, who are in 6th grade, until they register for classes ,and then become college students. Unfortunately, Thompson did leave Parkside, but she will not be stopping her career. She plans on going back to teaching. "My heart is in teaching junior high and high school students." Thompson added, "the best way to recruit students of color is to be a good teacher." One final note Thompson reiterated is that, "My best advice for students is to initiate, and don't wait for others to do for you, do for yourself. This means the difference between temporary triumph and long term success." THE RANGER NEWS, Page 4 Feature September 5,1991 Yolanda Jackson envisions the future of BSO By Erica Sanchez Feature Writer ' 'My primary goal for the Black Student Organization is to get everyone involved in what the school as a whole is doing: for us to come together and unite as a group for activities like Homecoming, the Winter Carnival, and other such social activities." This is the hope of the new BSO President Yolanda Jackson, a UW Parkside student. This English/ Education major has great plans for the BSO, as her statements indicate. As her reign as President begins this fall, Jackson, along with her fellow officers, have set up Yolanda Jackson quite an agenda for the organization. The BSO plans on taking a trip to an all-black college and bringing some African-Greek fraternities and sororities to UW-Parkside this year. A Mr. Ebony Man contest for Black men will be held this year to get he men more encompassed in the activity of the BSO, and a talent show with Carthage College's BSU and our BSO will start up, which promises to be exciting for everyone involved. Yolanda Jackson's qualifications are many. Her numerous positions here at UW-Parkside have qualified her for her seat as President. They include being a Senator in the UW-Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA) her first year, acting as secretary for the Minority Actions Council, peer educating, working on pre-coilege programs as a student advisor, and serving on several committees. In her personal life, she is just as ambitious. Ms. Jackson's personal goals are to achieve her degree in English and Education so that she can be a teacher. After a few years she wants to go on into counseling, and then finally achieving her greatest goal, becoming superintendent of a school district When asked if there has been an improvement in race relations in the recent year on campus, the new president believed that a number of faculty and staff members are working diligently to improve them, noting some particulars such as Larry Turner. The new diversity program beginning this year in the orientation is a direct example of the progress. All in all, Yolanda Jackson is perfectly suited for her position. Her positive attitude combined with her motivational skills will surely move the BSO in the right direction. When asked what she would like to convey to her fellow students and readers of The Ranger News, she replied; I would just like to say that BSO is not only for students of color or Black students; we would like everyone's input. We want everyone to be involved. Everybody is welcome to come in and sit in on our meetings, to give us feedback. Everyone is welcome." Momirov returns after studying abroad Consulate located inS tuttgart, Germany. We had some fears, but we did all right by Carol A. Smolinski Feature Writer Currently attending UW-Parkside, Claudia is a senior pursuing double majors inG erman and Marketing. The following, through a personal interview taken onT hursday, August 28,1991, are some of the events and experiences she had while travelling and living abroad in Germany as a student. Claudia, on suggestion from Professor Christof, chose to apply for a position as a student with the J.Y.A. (Junior Year Abroad) program based in Madison. She was accepted, decided to go, and with a $600 scholarship from the Max Kade Foundation and additional support from her parents and grandparents she left for Germany from O'Hare Airport on August 22, '90. Her flight landed in Frankfurt, Germany on the morning of August 23. She explains, "After going through customs our group was met at the airport by the coordinator of theFreiburg, Germany J. Y. A. We then boarded a bus that took us to the Albert-Ludwig Universitat, the college where I attended classes." Unlike other students involved in Exchange programs, and who stay with families, Claudia and her fellow students lived in a dormitory on campus at the university. When asked about her class load she told me,"The curriculum was for the purpose of learning about aspects of the German language, history, and current events. She also had a class called European Marketing. She said, "This class was very interesting. It explained the history and on-going process of Claudia Momirov a possible United Europe. Also, the classes were held Monday-Friday and each one lasted about 2 hours. We had other classes that were offered for the J.Y.A. students only throught the J.Y.A. program. I enjoyed my classes, they were well done." During her stay, great change was taking place in Germany. The political climate was going from hot to hotter and in Berlin at midnight of October 2, along with the tearing down of the "Cold War" Wall, there was the symbolic exchange by Chancellor Helmut Kohl, of the replacing of the East German flag with that of the flag of the new United Germany. Even more pressure was brewing in the Persian Gulf. Being so close to such a volatile situation might lend itself to an air of major concern. "All of us American students, " she said," were aware of the possible threat of terrorism and we were kept informed by our German program director, Raimond Belgardt, who was in daily communcation with the American Travel time wasn't limited solely to Germany. Claudia visited Sardinia and Venice, Italy, France, Switzerland, and Austria. And, her time in Germany didn't revolve exclusively around academic studies. "Sometimes I, along with the other American students, would go hiking, haunt local bars, dance at discos, or just walk around the city of Freiburg tob ecome familiar with the city. Eventually I got to know the Germans in my dorm and I began to socialize with them as well." Many wonderful experiences came about for Claudia during her stay. It was educational and exciting, too. But, as we know, all things must come to an end. She shared with me some final thoughts. "The last week in Freiburg was very full for me and the other American students. It was a time of celebration knowing that we were about to return home. But at the same time it was difficult to leave our new found friends. All of us shared the experience of living together in another country and we learned about that country's culture with the help of our German friends. I've grown a lot from this and the memories will be with me forever." Finally, I asked her what advice she might offer other students who may be considering taking a year to study abroad. She said, "Go into this kind of venture with an open mind. Expect differences. Be willing to learn no matter wher you go."

For those of September 5,1991 Feature THE RANGER NEWS, Page 5 PASA Pipelin Conveying ideas and perceptions by Tod McCarthy Special to The Ranger News "Pipeline—any means whereby something is conveyed," according to Webster's New World Dictionary. Communication conveying ideas and perceptions is necessary to effect change. This year, the Ranger is providing Parkside Adult Student Alliance (PASA) with a weekly column to allow us to air grievances, address ongoing problems affecting non-traditional students, and to disseminate timely announcements of events. The column will be wri tten by several different people with varying viewpoints to be fairly representative of a diverse category of students. We hope that no student, whether you consider yourself traditional or non-traditional, will feel omitted from the gist of our contributions and can develop a kinship with others on campus. Many different descriptions are used to determine which students are non-traditional. Common factors are age, students who have been away from the university for any length of time, and familial or employment obligations. In fact, if you do not fit the stereotypical model of the "average" student you may consider yourself non-traditional. A recent observation in the recent past by a party in the PASA office was "Aren't all of the students here supposedly adults?" Food for thought? The purpose of our column will not be to throw stones at individuals or organizations at UWParkside. Most of us like ith ere or we would not have made the commitment to enroll. Rather, we will inform our readership of problems weencounter, incorrectperceptions we must deal with, and solutions we have developed. One of the foremost problems PASA has encountered on a continuing basis isr ecognition of what proportion of the current student population we comprise. Depending on which qualifiers are used, that figure can be shown as anywhere from 40% to 60% of the students on campus. Rather than arguing about the actual figures, are we not correct inst ating that we are dealing with a rather significant total? Concerns of students pigeonholed into "non-traditional"classifications often are of similar importance to a goodly portion of other students. Even if you are nineteen, single, supported by parents and have no need to supplement your income with some form of employment, is it not safe to assume that many of your friends and others around you do fit somewhere within those conditions? If you want to go to a campus event and your companion who happens to have those responsibilities cannot attend with you, does that not have an impact on your life? Besides, your life situation mgiht also change. News items affecting non-traditional students, their accomplishments, and their trials and tribulations will also be given their share of press within this column.

In addition, the graduates usually give some suggestions to follow while at Parkside to get a head start if interested in that type of career, and the approximate starting salary. I hope the articles will help. If you are ever interested in a certain career, drop a note at the ^Ranger office and I will find out if any graduates are involved in that career or a similar one and write an article on it. The first career to be examined is that of 1990Parkside graduate Franca Savaglio. Her current position has dual responsibilities. Her title is Sales Administrative Assistant/Customer Service Representative. To acquire thisposition Franca majored in Communication and Psychology. She felt these were adequate majors to choose. Her job entails various duties and responsibilities. Her Sales Administrative Assistant position involves working with promotional materials using desk-top publishing. This includes using advertising methods as well as graphic design. The promotional materials can be for internal or external customers -promoting within the company or out of the company. Franca is also in charge of updating the company's catalog and price book. In addition, Franca may work with printing companies and goon photo shoots for the promotions she is working on. The Customer Service Representative side of her job deals with updating and maintaining customer files. Franca gives return authorizations which enables customers to return merchandise. She handles all of the new accounts, as well as, Franca Savaglio helping out when needed by taking and entering orders. To be able to perform these tasks needed to perform this dual position, various skills are needed. Franca believes you have to be a good speaker and listener. The job also takes patience - with customers as well as co-workers. The position requires efficiency, organization, and quick thinking skills. Because promotional materials are involved, creativity and good English skills are a must Lastly, Franca feels a person in this posi- / tion must not be afraid to ask ques tions, either of a customer returning or placing an order or of a coworker requesting promotional materials. This ensures that the person will receive what they want and Franca understands their needs and can fulfill them. How did Franca acquire these skills? Through Parkside. In addition to her classes, she stated that she gained experience through various extra-curricular activities. Franca had said that the most positive thing about Parkside was the numerous channels to learn new things. She believes that she gained helpful experience through her extra- curricular activities. She uses many of the skills acquired in these activities in her job. Also, she felt it was a very friendly campus and access to the professor was easy. The approximate beginning salary is between $15,000-$ 18.000 yearly. Franca had stated to have graduates expect a $50,000 annual salary to start with is unrealistic. To prepare for a career such as this, Franca suggested to get as much experience as possible, try a variety of things, and to talk to people directly in the field. "Jobs are different than you expect," stated Franca, "what you think you are going to be doing and what you actually do are two different things". She also suggested to get involved in internships and do research on the career you choose. Lastly, take classes such as Message, Media, and Design. Her advice to all UW-Parkside students is, "Don't just come to class and leave. Question the professor and geti nvolved - its' not a cliche". a .

You put more than just your savings into a retirement company. You put in your trust and hopes for the future, too. So before you choose one, ask some questions. How stable is the company? • How solid are its investments? How sound is its overall financial health? A good place to start looking for answers is in the ratings of independent analysts. Three companies, all widely recognized resources for finding out how strong a financial services company really is, gave TIAA their top grade. IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS, TIAA IS LETTER-PERFECT. TIAA received A+ from AM. Best Co., AAA from Standard & Poor's and Aaa from Moody's Investors Service. These ratings reflect TIAA's reliable claims-paying ability, exceptional financial strength, superior investment performance, and low expenses. With its guaranteed rate of return and opportunity for dividends, TIAA is one of less than ten companies, out of 2,200 nationwide, that received these highest marks. CREF.

Having never been to the Big Apple before, I had lived in a Manhattan illusion until I stepped off the bus at the Port Authority terminal at 11 a.m. on June 5th, 1991. The smell of urine filled the aiar nd crumpled papers flew around. People rushed by me when I saw my first homeless person sleeping in the bus terminal hallway. My traveling companion, Dierdre Collier, wouldn't let me stop and stare. Since Dierdre is from upstate New York (that means the area next to New Jersey, I think), I let her speak whenever necessary to people in her native accent.

S of App,e ComPuwr-,ncmy nasal Midwestern accent, it would have been the same as wearing a sign that said, "I'M A TOUR. 1ST, ROB ME!" The Empire State Building awaited us. The view from the 86th floor gave me a look that no one else on the ground could see. Gone were the dirt and crime. In their places were the tree tops of Central Park and the quietness of the wind. (Ooooh, there's poetry in that.) After a long walk on the noisy traffic-filled streets, we stumbled upon Greenwich Village. I knew we were there since Dierdre said, "Now you can say you were in the Village"; What stuck in my mind were the buildings. I wondered, who would paint all the buildings a dreary maroon? A huge umbrella covering a table was picked up and floated around an outside diner. I pointed and said, Dierdre, omigod" but the eaters took no notice and continued their conversations. We had walked a total of about ten miles when we reached the Staten Island Ferry. A street performer played Beethoven's "Fur El ise" on steel drum s while as kateboarder put four garbage bins together. He ripped aluminum cans, placing the sharp edges up on the rims of the bins. He rode the skateboard and leaped over the bins to another skateboard. The tourists took pictures and threw quarters from the ferry. It was a good day so far; neither of us were mugged nor did we see anymuggings. Although my feet were mush, Dierdre and I climbed the 354 steps up to the crown of Liberty. We reached the crawl space of the crown and flew down the steep spiral steps. By that time, it was around 5 p.m. and we both knew that if we walked to the Port Authority, we'd be crawling by the end of our trip. So we decided to RIDE THE SUBWAY. We could have been taking our lives into our own hands because a screwdriver killer was on the loose. However, we had a better chance of being murdered in Milwaukee than Manhattan. We weren'ttotally relaxed yetsol made up a game called Guess the Subway Rider's Occupation. A curlyhaired man wore a beige corduroy blazer with leather patches on the elbows. Dierdre and I said, "English professor". My Manhattan illusion was realized—I came, I saw, I went home. Dierdre said, "I gotta cawwwl Pawwwl, then we'll go to the mawwwl". Now, if only we could keepthose New Yorkers from stealing our Old Style. September 5,1991 Music Review The Katydids Sam Manchester and Andy Patch Music Columnists In an effort to spice up this pantasmagoria of journalistic talent known to us all as The Ranger News, SamManchester and I,Andy Patch, will be writing a weekly "Siskel & Ebert"-style music review each week we will review a different new or recently released album, chosen by myself one week and Sam the next. The person choosing the album will make his commentary first, followed by the views of the other. We will attempt to prevent a wide variety of musical styles, in the hopes of satisfying the diverse interests of our readers. This week, we will be reviewing the premier album by the Katydids, Katydids. Distributed by Reprise Records, it was released in late 1990. Being that I picked this one, I'll start... Katydids is an very strong first effort by a young group with great potential. Deeply influenced by mid- to late-1960's pop in style and content as well as in name, the album's light and amusing sound is areffeshing change from today's popular music. Varying in theme from a satire of religious fanaticism (All Above Me") to a questioning of the state of the world ("What Will the Angels Say") to a song of unrequited love (Girl in a Jigsaw Puzzle"), Katydids is serious without being overbearing. The vocals of lead singer Susie Hug are central to the success of the album, accompanying perfectly the group's 1960's THE RANGER NEWS, Page 9 Get Involved Get Involved Get Involved Get Involved Ge* Involved BASE* BALI* CARP SHOW Sat.

While definitely not what you'd play at a party or anything that you 're likely to hear atd aan ce club (although with some of the stuff I've heard lately from some places, I wouldn't be surprised) it is excellent listening if you're just in a calm, mellow mood and feel like relaxing to some light, playful music. Grade: Strong A; my only question on this album is how they'll follow it up! And now, here's Sam... ..ZZZ ...7.7Z Oh, I'm sorry, I must have fallen asleep listening to this album. Seriously though, I think we definitely have a difference of opinion here. Although Katydids is a musically sound album with some impressive vocals, it lacks that special something to make it great: energy! The Katydids lack spiritual excitement that the Mamas and the Papas delivered in the sixties. Vocalist Susie Hug gives no sign that she believes in whatshe's singing, rather just walking gracefully through the lyrics. The opening track, "Heavy Weather Traffic," is the best on the album and there are a few traces of authentic 1960's pop-folk sound ("All Above Me»T "Growing Old"). All in all I just can'thelp but feel that this album is boring and somewhat uninspired (maybea war and some LSD would help). As for following this album up, I think the Katydids should stop trying to sound so sixties-ish and play with some unrestricted emotion. Grade: C+ Next week: N.W. A. 's Efil4zaggin by Chris DeGuire Feature Writer Metallica - Metallica c. 1991 Enter the Kings of Metal After over two years since ...and Justice for All, Metallica returns with another look at the darker sides of human existence. This time around singer/guitarist James Hetfield's lyrics focus on the underlying roots of evil - the individual not corrupt governments in Justice or problems of the masses and institutions of Master of Puppets. Along the way they seem to have created a new style of speed metal with tighter orchestrations and Hetfield actually singing some of the choruses instead of his trademark growls, but he still has plenty of those. Not all the tracks are about the evils of humanity, but the most powerful are. "Sad but True" is some of the best writing Hetfield has done. ES-G-A.

"Holier Than Thou" deals with people who judge others by appearance and who are quick to blame others for their own misfortunes instead of trying to understand themselves: "Before you judge me take a look at you/Can't you find something better to do/ Point the finger, slow to understand/ Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand." "The Struggle Within" lets the listener inside an emotionally disturbed person trying to reach out to someone. Metallica's stand on politics and censorship come out in "Don't Tread on Me," a political cry from early American politics and "Nothing Else Matters" isprob- Metallica dares. "Enter Sandman" is my personal favorite. Driving rhythm guitars, bass, and a chilling how-to for those of you who have trouble putting your kids to sleep. Worthy of special mention is bass player Jason Newsted who had the almost impossible task of replacing Cliff Burton who was killed in a freak bus accident five years ago. Justice was recorded with so much bass that it was difficult to pick out the bass guitar. Jason is as much a part of Metallica as Cliff ever was and this performance proves it. The music may not be for everyone but Metallica has something to say for those who care about what other people have to, say. Even if you abhor the thought of listening to a Metallica album, buy it for the words or copy it from someone who has diem because there's probably something here that you need to hear.

After I filed an by Suneeta Akkinapalli Shannon Corallo Columnists We would like to introduce ourselves as concerned students. Our concern lies in many societal issues, for example: environmental, political and minority concerns. We as UW-Parkside students have learned in our Communication, and other classes that positive change can be achieved and is vital to society. As we absorb the different medias around us it's easy to become discouraged. We often question, what are the solutions? Our column will address problems and attempt to give alttemative solutions. Our column focuses on subjects that affect students and faculty at UW-Parkside. Some of the issues that will be addressed include sexual harassment, use of language, and date rape. Our goal is to create an awareness of the problems that exist in our society as well as right here at Parkside. We feel that by gaining awareness we take the first step forward towards change, and in turn allow the subsequent steps to proceed. Our first column will be devoted to the issue of sexual harassment Sexual harasment is not limited to the larger campuses, it exists at universities of all sizes; UW -Parkside is not exempt A study conducted from 1984-1990by Kay Scholzman, a Political Scientist at Boston College, found 20-30% of female students have been victims of sexual harassment Sexual harassment is any unwanted or unwelcome sexual attention or sexual expression that makes the person who experiences it uncomfortable in the workplace or classroom. Sexual harassment exists in various forms: verbal (sexual innuendo's and suggestive comments), non verbal (obscene gestures), and physical (touching). An actual court caser egarding sexual harassment is Morris v. American Can Corporation. Jacquelyn L. Morris was hired by the American National Can Corporation in 1981 in an effort to put more women in traditionally male areas. In 1987, Morris worked her way in becoming top seniority in her a unit with 12 men. Her job performance was rated as excellent by corporate management. In 1987, Morris resigned due to repeated sexual harassment Her harassment was both verbal ("You have a nice ass") and physical (patling her buttocks). As a result she reported this to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and then took American complaint however, (it) escalated," said Morris. Morris received $16,000 in back pay and interesL The judge faulted the American Can Corporation for not taking her complaints serious enough. "Apparently (the company's supervisors) expected that occasional, mild rebukes of employees about horseplay and pranks would put a stop to what, in fact and law, was serious sexual harassment " The court also ordered the company to set up a training program and complaint system. Would you know if you were a victim/witness to sexual harassment? Look at the following two examples. Jim and Rita are faculty in a large department of a state university. Jim is tenured. Rita is only in a tenure-track position. For the past month Jim has been openly propositioning Rita. She has complained to the chairperson that his advances are unwelcome and make her feel uncomfortable on the job. However the problem persists. Can Rita bring sexual harassment charges against the university? YES. Geitie is a college sophomore. Gertie's professor blatantly, but privately, offered to raise her grade from a C to an A if she would go out with him. Is this sexual harassment? YES. UW-Parkside has a sexual harassment committee which is headed by Frances Bedford. If you have been a victim of sexual harassment or see a problem developing contact the Women's Center 595-2170) 01- the Sexual Harassment Committee (595-2031). We would like to conclude with the following reminders * Know when and how to speak up; know who in your university/ workplace can aid you in reporting your compliant. * Know your own comfort level, as well as the policies regarding sexual harassment at your university/ workplace. * Sexual harassment is illegal. * Men can also be sexually harassed. * Employers can be held legally responsible for neglect of enforcement of sexual harassment policies. * Sexual Harassment can be difficult to prove; therefore, keep records and note witnesses. We look forward to your anticipated response.

The following extra credit points can be earned: 2 quarts of blood given to the Professors pet tarantula- 100 pts. 1 tooth per week pulled for Profs kicks- 50 pts. 1 point will be awarded for every instance of grovelling, etc. c. Grades are totally arbitrary, and not based on anything. In other words, the chance of you getting an A is equal to the Devil's demand for a snowblower. Once you have gotten over syllabus shock, things won't be so bad. The real challenge to school is preparation. An unprepared student may as well park their car on the tracks. In my case, I've decided to take a nap on the tracks, and now I've awakened to find myself frozen in the train's headlight like a deer. Oh well, maybe I'lgl et lucky and I'll sidestep the train. I did buy some notebooks, and I've got a couple of pens. As Aerosmith sang, "The train kept arollin...", right over the top of my outstretched body. So, here I am dismembered, and trying to remember what classes I have so I can buy the textbooks. Don't let this happen to you, it's a lot less painful to catch the train in the station, than on the fly, as I'm doing. £i& THE RANGER NEWS, Page 14 Editorial / Opinion September 5,1991 The Devil's Advocate What happened to the golden age of innocence? by Donald R. Andrewski This past summer I had the opportunity to meet some new and very interesting people. Not that I traveled to any excitingly exotic foreign lands, or even to the distant boundaries of this great land of ours. I met these people right here in our own backyard, the place we call Southeast Wisconsin. While I had fun at the beach and at area parks, the people to which I am refering were not met there. I met these folks while I was working at my job. I am a waiter at a banquet facility. As you can imagine, I have the supreme opportunity to meet diverse groups of individuals. This past summer, I had the pleasure to serve in several twentyyear high school reunions. Some of the people that attended these functions were friends of mine from way back. For the most part, these folks haven't changed at all. They still seem to be the same youthful, energetic folks that I had known twenty years ago. It was both interesting and traumatic to see the effects that two decades had on some of these people. Most of the ladies looked really sharp; most had taken health conciousness seriously and looked not much older than the graduation photos that adorned their nametags. For some men, however, Time and Fate hadp layed a cruel jokeo n them. I saw one man with a photo nametag. The graduation photo showed a handsome young man with shoulder length blond hair. The man wearing the tag was still in good shape, but his head was as bald as a bowling ball. Another man, the high school hunk with the barrel chest, apparently found the beer barrel, and now his chest went South and settled near the equator. The really interesting things started to happen once the dinner plates were cleared and the band geared up for the dance. For the most part, the bands consisted of people the same age as the reunioners. Some of these musicians were folks that I hadja mmed with in high school nearly two decades ago. Some had even come from the ranks of the respective classes, and were duly introduced as such and enjoyed the limelight for yet another season. One particular incident stuck with me the entire summer. It continues to haunt me to this day, and I doubt thaIt wille ver forget it As one band kicked into high gear playing the songs that were hits twenty years agoI, began singing to myself as I cleared the tables of dirty glasses, pleased that not only was I getting paid for this, but that I had the opportunity to hear a band that wasn't playing some schmaltzy "chamber music" of the elevator variety. After the band finished playing a series of songs one man, ainn extremely loud voice, took the Lord's Name in vain and ordered the band to turn it down. TURN IT DOWN??? Wait a minute! Isn't this the same group of people that, some twenty odd years ago cranked their amplifiers to 115+ decibels and screamed at the topof their lungs that they were "Born to be Wild"? What the hell happened? As I sat at home that night, I did a lot of soul searching in an attempt to determine the nature of my uneasiness. The question, it seemed, was not the case of loud music, but that of an age of innocence, long since vanished. While we were in high school, we graduates of the 1970's had the same dreams and aspirations as the high school graduates of the 1990's. We were young and naive, thinking of ways how we could focus our youthful energies to solving the world's problems. Even the problems haven't changed much. We are still fighting for justice, peace, freedom and environmental awareness. But "TURN IT DOWN"? What happened to the golden age of innocence? It was burned, bled and frightened out of us in the jungles of Viet Nam. It was sweated out of us in the factories and sweatshops of America. It was screamed out of us in the pangs of childbirth and the joyful and often equally frustrating task of parenting. Unfortunately, innocence had to take a backseat to a myriad of more important problems. Ironically, this amounted to new parents trying to save their kids from doing the same things that they themselves did a fifth-century ago, namely smoking, drinking, drug usage and premarital sex. One friend of mine spent the last fifteen years helping our band set up the equipment for our gigs. A veteran of countless extremely loud performances, this same man told me that "just the other day" he yelled at his teenage daughter for playing her stereo too loudly. He confessed that he experienced a sensation of self-imposed deja vu as well as swallowing a thick slice of humble pie a la mode. So the innocence wasn't really gone. It just got lost in the shuffle. The concept of "turning it up" goes a lot deeper than just loud music. The loud music was not only a vehicle. It was symbolic of the energy we radiated, the energy to take on the world and fight with a resolve to win. Let us renew our commitment to the struggle and "TURN IT UP!" The theme of innocence revisited should be to take the time to stop and smell the roses. We must take a personal inventory of those things that really matter to us, and to give them their proper due. Only by example can we teach our children how to focus their energies effectively, and not squander their existance chasing their tails and other useless time consuming practices. "Turn it down"?

The manned site is located at 1001- 50th Street, and its hours of operation are: Tuesday through Friday 7:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. The Sun Plaza center has been moved to the old armory site located on the southwest comer of 30th Avenue and 45th Street. This center is self-service and remains open only during daylight hours. Both sites accept aluminum cans, steel food cans, brown, green and clear glass, newspapers, milk jugs, laundry detergent containers, plastic soda bottles as well as any other type of plastic containers labeled 1 or 2. Unfortunately due to current market conditions, the centers can no longer accept aluminum foil, pie plates and similar aluminum products, household batteries, cereal boxes and other "chipboard," junk mail, magazines, office paper, plastics with numbers 3 through 7, and wide mouth containers (sour cream and butter containers) with the number 2. The City of Kenosha is currently negotiating a contract with Browning Ferris Industries (~JFT) to construct and operate a Materials Recovery Facility which will be used for the sorting and processing of recyclables. Construction should be completed by September 1992, and at that time, Kenosha will begin to provide a curbside-recycling collection service for approximately one third of its households. The rest of the households will be phased in over the following two years. The state of Wisconsin Recycling Law requires mandatory recycling by 1995. For more information on Kenosha's recycling centers, call the Department of Public Works at 6S6-8040.

Contact New coach, new order: discipline By TED McINTYRE Sports Editor The UW-Parkside Ranger Baseball team has a new coach with a new philosophy and will soon have a new attitude. "Discipline will be the foundation of my whole program, whether it is from the NCAA, myself, or peers,the players on this team will be disciplined." These words came from new Ranger head coach Pete Peerenboom explaining his outlook on the future of UW-Parkside Baseball. Peerenboom, a native of Kimberly, WI. was an assistant coach on two national championship teams UW-Oshkosh (1985) and Ithaca College (1988). His teams have made five tips to the NCAA National Championships. Following the resignation of long-time coach Ken "Red" Oberbrunner, the Rangers needed to find someone with outstanding credentials and Peerenboom filled the need. "The search committee was highly impressed with Pete's background and the fact that he had been associated with three strong collegiate baseball programs," said UW-Parkside Athletic Director Linda Draft "We're sure he will instill e xcellence in the baseball program at UW-Parkside, emphasizing both academic and athletic success," Draft added. This excellence will no doubt stem from Peerenboom *s strict beliefs, beliefs that have earned him great success in the past In 1991, Ithaca College, with Peerenboom at the assistant coaching level finished sixth in the nation at the College World Series. Peerenboom brings an almost stunning coaching record to the Rangers. Teams he has coached have compiled records of 224 wins, 62 losses and one tie for an amazing .790 winning percentage. Peerenboom spent his college days at UWOshkosh earning his B.S. in Sports Marketing and later received his Masters Degree in Sports Psychology while coaching at Ithace College. While discipline will be the focal point of Peerenboom's teams, other changes will take place. Just for Kicks The Rangers have enjoyed great success in re cent seasons at UW-Parkside. Here are the records for the past five seasons Year Won Lost Tied Pet. 1986 13 8 1 .591 1987 17 5 2 .708 1988 18 4 5 .667 1989 18 4 1 .780 1990 14 6 0 .700 "The school is going toD ivision II competition and that means that I want to compete nationally and competitively at the D-D level," said Peerenboom. "We are going to have to up the level ofc ompetition and the intensity level to do so." The new Ranger coach contends that this should be done by increasing the number of games played by the teams. While in seasons past the Rangers have played approximately 35 games, Peerenboom has already increased the numberof games to47 and says that by next year his Rangers will be scheduled to play 56 which is the NCAA maximum limit for number of games a team can play. By increasing the games, the Rangers will have a better shot at making the postseason tournament because teams are given points for each game played. Tougher competition will also increase the team's ranking. Another change Parkside's new dean of the diamond will try to make is the reputation UWParkside has been given around the state. "We are the only D-II program in the state. I want to bring this program to the point where every high school player is saying 'I want to go to UW-Parkside.'" Often when a coach takes over a program questions are raised as to how long it will take to implement his system, coach Peerenboom hopes to rid the Rangers of such questions. "When I walkout on the field next Monday these kids are going to understand that it is my program and it (his system) is going to happen now." Some things which accompany Peerenboom's system are stern rules for his players. One rule which may cause some withdrawal problems for the Ranger players is his strict policy on chewing tobacco. Peerenboom does not allow chewing and will kick any player off his team immediately if he sees him chewing at any team function. Other rules Peerenboom has are no earring for players and strongly stresses the importance of going to class and not drinking. "I have always been successful with discipline," said Peerenboom in support of his system. Strategically,Peerenboom has a system of play he follows and is as confident in it as he is with his rules for hisp layers. "To win att he D-n level, youhave to havepitching over everything else. And offensively I would like to be branded as a power hitting ball-club. If you play for a big inning you have a chance to score more runs." Practice will start Monday for the 1991-92Ranger Baseball team. Peerenboom will work with the team for eight weeks while they go over his plans for the spring season. Then, around the end of January, the team will begin practice for 16 weeks and the season. If the Rangers are as successful as Peerenboom'spastballclubs, then UW-Paikside will be fielding some outstanding teams in upcoming years. Uansjer News Pai'i SopiomhcrS.

Just ask UW-Parkside occer coach Rick Kilps. Last ear his teams lost five games by ne goal to finish with a 13-7-0 ecord. One goal was thedifference •etween a good record and an exellent one. But the past is just that-the last- and although the Rangers will ose some fantastic players (twoime All-Americans Jens Hansen, tieRangers all-time leading scorer, ind d efender Mike Riley, Allamerican goalkeeper Armando ?arlo and all-district forward Hung „y) Kilps is optimistic about the (angers 1991 season. "We have ;ood personnel and will play an up empo style of play," said Kilps. rhe 91 Rangers will look to make he fast paced game a weapon as )pposed to last years ball control game. Kilps has switched a number of players from last year's positions to implement his up tempo game plan. Chris Ryan will move from mid fielder to defense, Ron Knestrict will move to Midfielder from defense. Bob Rogers will go from forward to Midfilder an Nick Hemer will move from Midfilder to forward. "We will try to accentuate our strengths to build our team around the talent we have," said Kilps. Historically the Rangers have fielded outstanding defensive teams. This year the Rangers face somequestions with new defensive players and a bito f inexperience at goal. Joel Meadow and Reid Whetham will share the duties in goal for UW-Parkside in 91. Both have looked good in practice thus far. The Rangers start off with injuries already a problem as they will be without the services of potential starters sophomore Mark Gyurko and Dennis Nerada who are out with injuries suffered over the summer months. As far as the incoming freshmen, Kilps knows they will be making "freshmen mistakes" but is confident in their talent, a tribute to his recruiting abilities. "The freshmen will make freshmen mistakes because the transition to the college game is such a big adjustment from high school. But so far none of them have looked bad and a few are impressive." These freshmen include Mateo Mackbee who is a solid athlete, and Jason Gould a 6'3" defenseman. With his solid returning letterwinners in Chris Ryan, Ron Knestrick, Bob Rogers and Joel Meadow, Kilps thinks his system can achieve success in 1991. "I would like our strengths to lie in our quickness, but weather or not that will happen remains to be seen," Kilps truthfully remarked. The Rangers will taylor their system to am ore international style of play, using a five Midfilder system instead of three which is more condusive to a slower style of play. One area the Rangers will not change is in theisr cheduling. Once again UW-Parkside is faced with an incredibly difficult line-up of matches. In its schedule of about 20 games (depending on tournament performances) the Rangers will play three top 20 Division II teams, Two top 20 NAIA teams, five NCAA Division I teams and two teams which were nationally ranked last year. The Rangers will need to be up for every game or they could end up with a far less than desirable record. "Our goal is to win 14 games this season and be in the top five in our region, that will get us to post season play," said Kilps.
