Page 6 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 7 UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN - PARKSIDE Annual crime prevention month observed at UW-Parkside Alan R. Cook News Writer "It is always easier to prevent something than to deal with it af- jerwards." With these words, Assistant ChiefjDirector of Campus Police andPublic Safety Thomas J . Knit- ter sums up the focus of UW- Parkside's observance of Crime Prevention Month. Crime Prevention Month is observed during October by law enforcement agencies across the United States. It is intended to promote citizen awareness and par- ticipation in crime prevention ac- tivities, "We need the involvement of citizens to do our job," Knitter stresses. "You are our eyes and ears." The most important step that members of the campus commu- nitycan take to assist Campus Po- lice,according to Knitter, is toedu- cate themselves on how not to ap- pear an easy victim for the oppor- tunistic thief or assailant "People must be aware that our campus is not some kind of magical area where nothing hap- pens," Knitter insists. "We are really no different than Regency Mall. Weare a special community, but we are not isolated from the outside world. "People must use common sense, for the potential for crime is here,justas it is anywhere else," he said. "Use your common sense and use your intuition," pleads Knitter. "If people look at something, and their intuition says that there is something wrong with this picture, they are probably right. "D n' m it over until ou Sheila -Kaplan are finished with your next class," continues Knitter. "Call Security right away. Please." Knitter notes that this is the only way Campus Police can inter- vene before a problem occurs. Dr. Gary Grace, Assistant Chancellor for Student Affairs, re- ports that the Campus Police will be releasing a brochure contain- ing detailed consumer informa- tion during Crime Prevention Month. The brochure will in- clude statistics on crimes, detail police procedure and policy and offer a reminder of the penalties for various crimes. A direct response to the new Campus Security Act, instituted on September I, 1992, the bro- chure will become a federally mandated annual publication. "The premise of the Campus Security Act is that an informed public is a safer public," states Grace. "There tends to be a 'what, me worry?' attitude that pervades college campuses," muses Grace. I "We must shake students up a little bit ... develop a more street- wise attitude here." Grace joins Knitter in call- ing for the development of com- man sense crime prevention tech- niques. For example, Gracenotes, people ought to team up when walking or jogging around cam- pus at night. "People have to realize that we are not in the land of Oz,' Grace emphasizes.

Congressional candidate Neumann visits university Mollie Boutell Ntw~ Writer Despite the fact that the Park- side Collge Republicans has an estimated 50 students on its mem- bership list, only two members at- !ended U.S. Congressional candi- date Mark Neumann's speech Monday, October 5. :'This fiasco was my baby," admitted Rob Holmberg, one of the two members present. "You'd thmk this being an election year, IJJore people would have shown up." AsHolmberg stood outside the ;:: irying torally interest, George s tried to understand the low turnOUl I "EverYbody'S in different CUbs, and it's reall y hard to get everybod y together at once," com- mented Harris. Neumann and his wife, Sue, did not seem bothered. "Most of our meetings are nOI this small," he said. "It's gotten to the point now where generall y we have a pretty fair turnout The last college campus I was at (UW- Whitewater) we had standing room only." Neumann, a former math teacher turned businessman turned politician, said he decidcd to go into politics after taking a look at what was going on in the country. "The mindset that has allowed this nation to reach this disastrous situation is pretty sick," the candi- date proclaimed. Neumann accused incumbent Les Aspin of overspending tax- payer dollars, receiving too much special interest money and having a poor voting record. "Les Aspin overspends every- thing he's doing," Neumann said of his opponent Neumann blamed a lack of positive leadership for the country's woes. "Ifyou'reaDemocrat,you're going to say it's Reagan's poli- cies and President Bush's poli- cies," commented Neumann. "If you're a Republican, you're go- ing to say it's the Democratic Congress. "I'm about America, and I don't want to know whose fault it is. I want to know how to solve the problem. "The way to break this sys- tem is to form a coalition that is united and caring about America," Neumann continued. "We're forming groups allover the coun- tty with candidates like myself, and when we are elected we will eliminate the 'good old boy' sys- tem, if at all possible. "I'm very optimistic that we will have a solid voting block of 30 or 50 [in Congress] that just plain votes together when it comes to the budget," noted Neumann. Neumann's main topic Monday night was the national debt. "The solution is to quit spend- ing more money than they have," he said. "That is the only viable option we have. "My recommendation is that we tell [Congress] to bring back thcbud- get with a two percent increase or Jess, or resign. "If they had done to my com- pany what they've done to thiscoun- try," he added, "I'd fire them." Neumann, pan owner of a Janesville construction company, stated that increasing taxes on the wealthy is not the solution, since companies would either leave the country or increase the price oflheir products. "When they increase the price of the product," he said, "it comes right back to the middle and lower classes. and if they take the com- pany to Mexico, people lose their jobs." He also did not feel that de- creasing taxes on the middle class would help. ''I'd love to decrease taxes, but I don't think that's the answer. What we need [0 do is decrease spending while increasing rev- enue." Neumann discussed problems with the social security system, which he feels can also be solved by paying off the national debt. "The social security system is self funding and would takecareof itself if they left their grubby mitts off of it," he said. In closing, Neumann urged college-aged adults to vote.

The policy, therefore, could mean larger tuition hikes for out-of-state un- dergraduate students, professional and graduate students. Non-resident graduate stu- dents could face hikes ashigh as27 percent per year. The Board of Regents issched- uled to vote next month to set spe- cific increase amounts. Regent Jonathan B. Barry, in an interview in the Milwaukee Sentinel, said he expects the amount to be between six and eight percent. Tuition increases at schools throughout theUW System should be no greater than ten percent each year, according to apolicy adopted by the UW Board of Regents at a meeting last Thursday in Green Bay.

The Parkside Association of Communicators were responsible for this survey. The Ranger News is apologizes for this mishap! Regent Herbert Grover, Who is also the Wisconsin State SchOOl Superintendent, was opposed lothe policy. According toGrover, arisc in tuition puts an unfair burdenon middle-class taxpayers. He said that Wisconsin will suffer if students cannot afford to auend the University asa resultof tuitions that are too high. However, UW System admin. istrators have made available sta- tistics that show that the relative cost of tuition has not increased over the past twenty years. FC"r e~arnr1e'. l~~t }'rM'c;: fU- ition for resident undergraduate students at UW-Madison was $1946, or 12.5 percent of theaver. age Wisconsin resident's dispos. able income. In 1971, tuition was $451, or 12.7 percent. Grover favored a plan that would vary tuiuon according to each student's family income. Some regents voiced concerns over placing a cap on general tu- ition policy, noting that inflation hasjumped as much as 14percent per year in the past. However, other board mem- bers said that the Board of Regents had to, because of strong public response, put a maximum on what the tuition increase would be.

Kaplan points to the improved lighting in the newly renovated Communication Arts parking lot as another tangible example of Parkside's focus on crime preven- tion.
