Tuition to rise for UW-system schools&#13;
Rebecca Vankervoorde&#13;
News Editor&#13;
The United Council, a state stu-&#13;
dent association in Wisconsin represent-&#13;
ing more than 140,000 students on 24&#13;
UW System campuses, stated in a press&#13;
release that as the Wisconsin Senate pre-&#13;
pares to bring their final compromises in&#13;
the 1997-1999 state budget bill to the&#13;
floor, students from across the state will&#13;
be the big losers in the budget.&#13;
Students biggest&#13;
loser in state budget&#13;
Melissa Sahr&#13;
In the early morning hours of&#13;
October II, 1997, after months of heated&#13;
debate, Governor Tommy Thompson&#13;
passed a budget that will forever affect&#13;
students in Wisconsin. The budget will&#13;
raise tuition 15% within the next two&#13;
years because of the "Tuition Flex". The&#13;
only thing that might have saved stu-&#13;
dents some money was the "Sunset&#13;
Clause", which would-have made the&#13;
"Tuition Flex" plan invalid after two&#13;
years unless it was put back into the bud-&#13;
get.&#13;
As bad as this sounds, the stu-&#13;
dents didn't lose everything'Financial&#13;
Aid was raised to 20%, Pell Grant minu-&#13;
mums were raised to $3,000, and the&#13;
State Student Incentive Grants were kept&#13;
in the budget. One major problem with&#13;
Pell Grants and SSIG's is that these are&#13;
not offered to independant students as&#13;
much as they are offered to dependant&#13;
students.&#13;
.&#13;
We can also use "Tuition Flex"&#13;
to our advantage by calling your local&#13;
senator and asking him or her to pass&#13;
Assembly Bill 33, which is the "Tuition&#13;
Cap" bill. This bill would notallow&#13;
tuition to rise above 33% for in-state stu-&#13;
dents and 120% for out-of-state students.&#13;
What can students do? Make a&#13;
few simple phone ~alls to your .Iocal.sen-&#13;
ators telling them that youare disapoint-&#13;
ed about how the budget was not in the&#13;
students favor, and ask them to support&#13;
Assembly Bill 33. It's as simple as that.&#13;
A new provision call "Tuition&#13;
Flexibility" has been added to the budget&#13;
that allows the UW System Board of&#13;
Regents to raise tuition levels above lev-&#13;
els set by the legislature. This provision&#13;
is being used to pay for faculty salary&#13;
increases which in the past has been a&#13;
shared cost between students and the&#13;
state. "Tuition Flexibility" has students&#13;
fully funding these increases.&#13;
" 'Tuition Flexibility' is the sin-&#13;
gle most damaging thing the legislature&#13;
can do to educational affordability in&#13;
Wisconsin," said Steve Perals,&#13;
Legislative Affairs Director for United&#13;
Council.  "Forcing student to cover the&#13;
cost of items they have traditionally&#13;
shared with the state demonstrates a lack&#13;
of commitment to higher education and&#13;
will&#13;
drive up tuition at an alarming rate."&#13;
According to Perala, how this&#13;
will affect University of Wisconsin-&#13;
Parks ide is that tuition can increase 8%&#13;
this year and 7% next year because of&#13;
this provision.  UW-Parkside will&#13;
be&#13;
affected the same as other UW system&#13;
schools for this two year budget.&#13;

Grant awarded to promote women in&#13;

with the aim of promoting women in the&#13;
computer sciences program.  Women&#13;
represent less than one-fifth of the stu-&#13;
dents currently enrolled in UW-&#13;
Parkside's Computer Science major.&#13;
The award will support a lab&#13;
with 28 computer work stations and two&#13;
file servers.  UW-Parkside has matched&#13;
the grant to build a facility with about&#13;
$100,000 in equipment.  Among other&#13;
things, Haller will conduct activities to&#13;
promote women in science such as orga-&#13;
nizing open houses for high school stu-&#13;
dents and their parents.&#13;
The National Science&#13;
Foundation recently awarded $62,000 to&#13;
the University of Wisconsin-Parks ide&#13;
Computer Science and Engineering&#13;
Department to establish a program for&#13;
attracting and retaining women as candi-&#13;
dates for degrees in computer science.&#13;
The NSF added $I4,000 to an&#13;
initial grant of $48,000 to support a labo-&#13;
