UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document UW-Parkside gets Regent approval ror new bUilding addition The University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents on August 19, approved a $9.1 million capital project to expand and remodel the University of Wisconsin Parkside's physical education building. Regent approval is the first step in the process to fund the project. The next step is State Legislature approval to allocate funding for the project. Of the $9.1 million, $1.3 million must come from non- state sources. Last April, UW- Parkside students approved an increase in segregated fees .f$8 dollars a semester per student, beginning this fall. The remaining $700,000 will be raised through a community fund-raising effort undertaken by the University ofWisconsin-Parkside Benevolent Foundation Inc. "We are very pleased about the Regent approval," Chancellor Eleanor Smith said. "Weexpect to work very closely during the next months with local legislators and the Foundation Board to secure the necessary funding. The benefits of the project will be reflected in improved educational facilities, additional space for athletics and extracurricular activities and provide for important contributions to the regional economy." Features of the proposed building include a 60,000- square-foot field house, an NCAA regulation indoor track, three classrooms. expanded locker rooms, additional racquetball courta, a new dance studio, renovated and expanded training and weight rooms and a lifetime wellness center. The new field house will be the largest free-span space in southeastern Wisconsin is intended to handle large events for both collegiate and community use. The existing physical education building, constructed in 1972, was designed primarily for men's intramural and intercollegiate team sports. A field house was part of the original plan. However, state budget cutbacks prohibited a new field house. "UW-Parkside has utilized the current building beyond its capacities," Rep. Jim Kreuser, D-Kenosha said. "This is a building which even from its beginning was not large enough to accommodate the demands of a full-scale University athletic program or the needs of the community. This project is definitely justified and will be fully utilized in our community for university and non-university events." "The existing physical education building reflects an outdated set of priorities," UW-Parkside Athletic Director Linda Draft said. "The proposed building renovations will support the University's growth in women's intercollegiate sports, the increased emphasis on intramural sports and wellness and allow for greater use by the urban region." The University expects the renovated facility to be available to community organizations on at least twenty weekend days a year on a fee-for-use basis.

September 1, 1994 ISSUE #1 Parkside to Begin New Recycling Program by Karen Diehl News Editor The University of Wisconsin-Parkside is starting a new recycling program this fall in order to comply with new state law. In the past, the campus has recycled only paper. However, with the new system, waste products will be separated into three categories. The first is trash. Trash receptacles will be the shortest of the containers and green in color. Wax coated paper cups, relatively unclean Styrofoam plates or cups, food products and wrappers would all be thrown in the trash bin. Recycling of paper will continue also. Paper bins will be middle-sized and brown. Any papers, including windowed envelopes, magazines, file folders, glossy or coated paper, colored paper and post-it notes can be placed into the paper recycling basket. The newest addition to the recycling program will be commingled (pronounced coh- mingled) recyclables. Commingled recyclables include aluminum cans, plastics, tin and relatively clean Styrofoam cups and plates. Recycling in campus housing will remain as it was previously, exceptthat cardboard will also be recycled. Anyone with cardboard to recycle can take it to the housing office. The amount of goods recycled on campus will be monitored by the state in order to be certain that UW- Parkside is in compliance with the new laws. These laws will be affecting everyone on a local level, not just on state-owned property. However, the amount of recycling required from UW- system colleges will be higher. Also, the amount of required recycling will increase each year. For example, the recycling done in 1996-97 will have to surpass that in 1995-96 . The paper recycling will ~continue to be taken care of by the Peltz Corporation. The commingled recyclables and trash will be handled by the Land Reclamation Company (LRC). Once the commingled goods leave the campus, they are brought to the LRC recycling facility in Racine. There, the recyc1ables are placed on a conveyer belt and separated. Then these products are shredded and baled. Bales of recycled goods look much like bales of hay, only three times the size. These bales are then sold to markets where they will be made into consumer- ready products. The trash that comes out of Parks ide will be taken to LRC's landfill, also located in Racine. The landfill has an estimated 4-6 year life span left. The state hopes to divert 25% of waste products from landfills by recycling. If this is the case, the life span of this particular landfill could be extended from 4-6 years to 6-8 years. "It's really difficult to predict," states Mark Hanley of LRC recycling, "There's no guarantee." .Ten years ago, there were an estimated 800-850 open landfills. Today, there are perhaps only 200 still operating. "The problem with these landfills is keeping them current," comments Hanley. "The landfills of today are built more stringently than the hazardous waste dumps of 10 years ago." Training meetings have already occurred in order for faculty and statTto learn about the new program. There will be more meetings for any students interested in learning more, or faculty/staff who may have missed the first meetings. These training sessions will be held in Union 104 on September 21and 27 at 10:30am, 12:00 noon, and 1:30pm.

NEWS SECTION Page 2 Buchholz Becomes New PSGA President By: Karen Diehl News Editor roughly a month and a half. At the end of the year, it was discovered that Vince Borner did not fulfill the academic requirements, nor did Dana Larsen, president pro-temp. Buchholz received no official word of the change. "One day I got a phone call from one of the senators who said, 'Hello, Madame President!'" commented Jennifer. The PSGA constitution requires that three meetings occur over the Last March, elections were held for senatorial and executive positions in -Parkside's Student Government Association (PSGA). At that time, Vince Borner, a former Senator, was elected president, and Jennifer Buchholz was elected vice- president. These offices were filled by Borner and Buchholz for summer. However, there were not enough of the senators president to elect even a temporary vice- president. Therefore, Buchholz has been assuming the duties of both present and vice-president.
