UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document RANGER VOLUME 24 • ISSUE 19 • FEBRUARY 1996 Revised Plans For Phy. Ed. Building to Be Submitted .Mark Hahn Staff Writer Revised pl ans for the pro- posed Physical Education Building expansion project are being submitted to the State of Wisconsin in order to fit the building plan into the amount of money allo- cated for the project. "The State building com- mission took the project and said. 'We will give you $4.6 million for Phase 1 of the project.' But up to that point, the architects were working on a premise for a $9 million building," said Steve McLaughlin, dean of students. "When a project like this is cut down the middle, you have to go back and revise the project to fit within the $4.6 million limit. The University's plan is to go back (to the state) and request the other half of the money to finish the project as originally intended," said McLaughlin. "It provides challenges to get the functional space you need within that set dollar amount. Also, the longer you delay, the more costly it gets - construction costs go up as inflation does." The current project is in the hands of the architect, Brian Thom of Fisher, Fisher and Theis- a firm in the Waukesha-Milwaukee area. Thorn will be submitting a design report to the State of Wisconsin Division of Facilities Development (DFD) within the next week. In the project's final review, it will be studied by DFD personnel and will then go to the State build- ing commission for approval. According to William Streeter, assistant chancel- lor of administrative and fiscal affairs, the original program statement for the project went forward in 1992, to be funded in the 1993-95 biennium. "We didn't get the project that biennium, but the ... chancellor at the time, Sheila Kaplan, was able to United Council meeting held at Parkside ESTABLISHED 1972 get a commitment of $100,000 for planning money. We then submitted the total project for the 1995-97 biennium," said Streeter. Streeter said that when the State cut the original project in half last year, it was divided into two phas- es. "What we're working on right now are the-detailed plans for Phase 1, and we're also going forward to try to secure funds for Phase 2," said Streeter. "We want to complete the structure with a field house for the 1997-99 biennium." Renovations in Phase 1 of the PE Building Expansion Project include remodeling the first floor to provide additional locker room space, a separate training room, weight room and equipment issue room. Second floor renovations include additional classroom and office space, a confer- ence room, dance studio and aerobics fitness center.

Tropical Winter Mystery page 9 Cramped Space Brings Headaches -Mark Hahn Staff Writer Ever since becoming ath- letic director at UW- Parkside, Linda Draft has been struggling with cramped space and a lot of headaches. "This campus outgrew the PE Building the day it opened," commented Draft. "We've been asking for twenty years for an addi- tion, and its extremely frustrating for both the stu- dents and staff because there just isn't enough space for everybody who wants to be active. "The day in our building starts at 6 a.m. when the track teams starts practice, and doesn't conclude until 12-1 a.m. when the baseball and softball teams finish practicing," said Draft. Draft said members of Ranger sports teams at the university aren't the only ones hit hard by cramped space. "Its really hard when we also have lots of intramural teams and we have only two nights a week for them to play here," explained Draft. "At the same time, we get requests for other classes, and we don't have the space to put in additional evening classes. That's when a lot of people like to take physi- cal.education- not a lot of Cont on page 3 ·Kristine 'Jiansen News Editor PSGAElection Candidates President Teri Jacobson, Senior.

Affairs Comm., chair ofAcademic Affairs & chair of SUFAC (Segregated University Fee Allocation Committee). Vice President Jason M. Weniger, Sophomore. I would like to be Vice President because at this current point in time the senate is at a stand still. I think that senators should be doing more for the stu- dents. It is my beliefthat the office of Vice President is where I could get the sen- ate moving in the direction of helping the most amount of students possible. The senate has an obligation to the students to represent them to the best of their abilities. I think as Vice President I could get the senate working as a whole to help every student at Parkside.

Karl Heinitz, Senior. I ran for the Parkside Union Board last year for no par- ticular reason, other then to perhaps gain an elected office and title. Upon taking office, I looked very serious- ly at the Student Union. I have discovered that the Union is being run without a great deal of student input. I have lobbied for more participation in the opera- tion of the Student Union by students and their popu- larly elected officials. I will begin my term by organizing the first full meeting of PUAB in almost two years. If you have any questions, comments or complaints, I can be reached at Heinitz®it.uwp.edu.
