UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-PARKSIDE Is It Worfn",·,994 United Council: 75Cents? byJim Hendrickson Feature Editor On September 9 and 10, the United Council of University ofWisconsin Student Governments (UC) met in LaCrosse. The Ranger News wasinformed by the PSGA that the UC iptended in taking a pro-life stand on abortion. The Ranger News wasalso informed that PSGA didnot have enough delegates to vote, and if the UCtook any stand on abortion,the PSGA had decidedto pull out of UC, pendingapproval of the student body in the form of a referendum. Because any decisionofthis kind would be controversial, The Ranger News decided to ask to send a representative to the meeting. It was agreed upon, and I was the lucky one who attended. The other members ofUW-Parkside's five-person delegation were all PSGA veterans: president Jennifer Buchholz,senators Deb Cutler and Chris Bossert, and former vice president Dan Blake. We stopped for supper at the Country Kitchen in Mauston. After dinner was over, Deb Cutler advised Jennifer Buchholz to ask for an extra receipt from the restaurant. By doing this, PSGA could get more money from the University. Cutler said, "It is always done at these things." Cutler also said Program Assistant Karla Zahn would not notice such a discrepancy. President Buchholz did not ask for an extra receipt, despite the chiding from Cutler and Bossert. Because of supper and driving through a hailstorm, the trip to LaCrosse lasted about four-and-a-halfhours. ..The Parkside delegation arrived about ten minutes after the scheduled 8 pm start-time for committee meetings. Committees make recommendations which the General Assembly (composed of all the delegates) either approves or rejects. I was assigned to the Academic Affairs Committee. The Academic Affairs Committee discussed unilateral program cuts, tuition increases, the technology fee increase, student access to teacher evaluations, uniform policy on transfer credits', and sophomore retention at UW- Center schools. The discussion was orderly, and the group produced five resolutions that were bland enough to offend no one. The meeting adjourned at about 11 prn, as scheduled. There was no discussion about abortion, and there were no arguments about semantics. At least one member oftbis committee (from UW-Center Fox Valley) thought it was quite productive.
