UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document Budget Cuts byKaren Diehl News Editor Last week The Ranger News reported on the possibilities and consequences of state- inflicted budget cuts which have been assaulting our university. Since then, a lot more has been learned about what has happened conceming the cuts, and about howpeople here on campus feel about it. Unfortunately, there hasn't been much insight into the dim and murky future. No one, it seems, has any concrete ideas about what's going on inside our Governor's head. In trying to get to the bottom of this matter I decided to go straight to the top: Chancellor Eleanor Smith herself. "We were to corne in with a 5 and 10 percent [budget cut] scenario and the system was to present it to [the governor.] What [the governor] has done is said that the UW System does not have to do the 5 and 10 percent exercise. He has not said anything about there not being a cut," explained Chancellor Smith. In the event that there are cuts forthcoming, Smith has decided to go ahead with a budget cut exercise anyway. The Chancellor's Office will be taking suggestions until UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN.PARKSIDE October 6, 1994 October 15 on a process by which cuts could be made. This is based on the same format of the 5 and 10 percent exercise originally asked for by Governor Thompson. On this decision, Eleanor Smith comments, "I think it would be unwise of us to sit and wait until the last hour to determine what we're going to do. I'd rather there not be a cut and not have to do anything, than for there to be a cut and not be prepared." From my interview with the Chancellor, I learned a few things. The first was that the governor was not requiring us to be prepared for drastic budgetcuts,butthatcuts may still be corning. Sounds almost logical to me.... The other insight I gained from speaking with Eleanor Smith was that she sees the sensibility in being prepared, and has no intention in being caught off-guard by whatever is thrown our way. I, for one, hope it works. The more I learned about the issue, the easier it was to understand. It seemed that the next person I needed to LukasFoss:The Interview byChris Sandstrom Entertainment Editor 1994 Homcoming Edition See pages 6 & 7 talk with was William Streeter, Assistant Chancellor of Administration and Fiscal Affairs. Assistant Chancellor Streeter explained to me where in Parkside's $35 million total budget these cuts would be made. Al! decreases in spending would affect only the GPR, or general program revenue part of our budget. And from these GPR funds, cuts would not be made "across the board." This would mean that to make a 5 percent cut, each department would cut back 5 percent, and in this way a total 5 percent cut would be achieved. Rather, the objective of Chancellor Smith's exercise would be to find a way to make these cuts in a way that fit the university's needs. The budget would need to be in keeping with the four mission themes at Parkside, which are quality, a learning community, diversity, and regional service. With these guidelines and the class.

It is in the best interest of all concerned for the increasingly diverse population to be educated to its full potential. This is where the workforce is trained. A trained workforce stimulates our country's growth. Our country's workforce is becoming more inclusive of traditional minorities, such as women and people of color. One option for educating African Americans is to attend traditionally African American colleges and universities. Smith's daughter attended one and was well served by that experience. However, not all students are better off with a separate black education. It all depends upon the individual. "Decide what it is you want to become and go for it," Smith declared. On Wednesday, September 28, Chancellor Eleanor Smith spoke to students about "The Status of African Americans in Higher Education" at the second Soup and Substance discussion of the year. The main point of the speech was .w that in order to reach your goals, you must not let any form of discrimination prevent these goals from being completed. Smith delineated some of the historical background of black education for her audience. At nineteenth- century schools for slaves, the teacher would teach her pupils everything she could and then find a new class to teach. This kind of dedication is still possible. It is more important than ever that people of color are educated to their full potential. In Smith's words, "Today, being undereducated means not having a college degree." Few are, in the final analysis, of secondary or tertiary importance. If severe budget cuts have to be made in the UW System, they not only can, but must be made in these ancillary areas." The consensus in this whole matter seems to be that nobody knows what's going to happen, but everyone expects cuts of some kind. Everyone I spoke to was concerned with making these cuts in a matter best suited to the needs of the university. On these ideas, I cannot disagree. What will be interesting, and probably controversial, will be the suggestions offaculty, staff, and students, a method of re budgeting will be determined. Streeter also added, "Even though we don't have to do the exercise, probably some kind of cut will be required." , My final interest in this intriguing financial and political drama was the opinion of people here on campus about the budget cuts. Former English Department Chair, Donald Kummings was kind enough to write down a few opinions about the cuts. He states, "The primary raison d'etre of a university such as UW- Parkside is the instruction of students. Necessary in carrying out the university's critical function are (1) faculty, (2) students, (3) a good library. All other activities) are interesting, contributory, and helpful but conflicting ideas about what exactly the needs of the university are. So, with that thought, I'll leave this jumbled, somewhat perplexing world of budget cuts until more can be said about the future. Incident Report Union Lot on cycle pad.
