It was open to all stu- dents, staff and faculty. Any student can get a copy of the "Design for Diversity" catalog from the Office of Multicultural Student Affairs (OMSA) at UWP. Hazel Symonette, Ph.D., UW System Administrator of Multicultural Affairs said that students need to be given education and life experiences. "To do otherwise equals educational malpractice." We should be "Embracing human di fferences, not only race, but female, sexual orientation, etc ....We are standing on the shoulders offolks who had to struggle against and do much more with much less. We are the sons and daughters of tomorrow's longing for a better day, a better way. The future is counting on us to hold the line." The UW system founded the 10- year D4D plan in 1988. The plan relies on efforts of each UW institution, to hire faculty and academic staff, to admit and teach students, and provide the atmos- phere that invites diversity and encour- ages cooperation. The purpose was to equip all students with professional and personal skills necessary 10 be successful in their lives. They did riot create it as a "quick fix" but as a long term effort to end economically disadvantaged and minorities that were unable to attend UW System schools. The D4D encourages: System-wide goals for under-represented student access and retention; Improvement of the multiculturaJ environment in the class- room; Creation of financial aid programs to remove barriers and address issues of accessibility; Cooperative efforts by the UW System to the public and private sector to maintain equal opportunity pro- grams. UW-Parkside has lost 63% of Latino and African American faculty and staff, while minority enrollment has gone up 19"10.According to the 1997 fall enroll- ment, student races are: Native American Indian-23, Foreign-34, Asian-67, Hispanic-242, African American-301 and Caucasian 3,616. The seven goals for D4D are: 1.- Recognize the need to eliminate the under-representation of minority and After the march Charm Williams October 25, 1997 is a day that will go down in history. It will be known for more than just the day the first MIllion Woman March took place. It will be known as the day "That sisters from around the nation and the world came together for unity, the uplift of our fami- lies and communities, love, common ground, understanding and respect," according to Sister Phile Chionesu, Founder and Co-Chair of the MIllion Woman March. Felicia Gladney, a junior at UWP id "Attending the MWM was a won- :~I experience. I met so many smiling faces from all over the country. I look forward to sharing with my children that I was part of a historical event." A MWM reunion is being planned for the year 2000. Meetings will be held with the regional coordinators to choose the city and the date, although Chionesu slated the reunion will not conflict with the Million Family March planned for the same year. Sisters are also encouraged to start MWM chapters in areas where none exist. The national level will provide assistance in establishing the chapters and helping them to connect regionally. Sisters are also asked to plan and hold African Village Community Town Meetings to deal with issues in their communities. The national chapter will be providing assistance with these pro- jects in the near future. The MWM is also planning to initi- ate a national and international fight against drugs in the communities, fami- economically disadvantaged people in the UW System; 2. Educate all students for an increasingly multicultural society in Wisconsin, our nation and the world; 3. Improve recruitment and retention efforts to provide better access for target- ed minority students so they can function more effectively at our universities; 4. Improve evaluation efforts in minority student enrollment/retention and facul- ty/staffrecruitment and retention; 5. Remove financial barriers that prevent nrinorities and economically disadvan- taged people as a realistic option; 6. Increase the number of minority facul- ty/stafftbroughout the UW System; 7. Establish effective partnerships with the public schools, the VTAE System, state government, the cornmunity and the pri- vate sector to help the UW System's efforts to improve nrinority and diversity education.

Other issues to be addressed are domestic abuse, breast cancer, Lupus, AIDS and sisters in incar- ceration. The MWM is far from over as women of African descent will continue marching on their own, everyday. As summed up in the Mission Statement, "We will no longer tolerate disrespect, lack of communication, negative interac- tion, antisocial and dysfunctional behav- ior and the denial that problems such as these affect our ability to progressively and productively move forward. Our ficus is centered around the reasons why and what it will require to eliminate this DESTRUCTION." MWM meetings are held at UWP every other Friday at 6:00 p.m, in the same room as the Black Student Union holds their meetings.

GLO feels D4D has left them out Coleen Tartaglia Editor-in Chief The members of the Gay and Lesbian Organization (GLO) on campus feels they were left out of the Rally for Diversity, sponsored by BSU, LU and PSGA, held on Nov, 2L They said the Rally was, "Race based." Before the Rally, there was a Design for Diversity meeting from 9:30-1 I :00 near the Chancellor's office, At the meeting a GLO representative said, "Why does the D4D plan ouly address the issue of race?" Hazel Symonette, PhD" UW System Administrator of Multicultural Affairs said that the D4D plan has gay and lesbian groups included, but they have not been addressed, It just hasn;t been done, because it is not as widely thought of as a 'minority group' as other cultures are. However, she agreed that it is an issue that UW System schools must address because sexual orien. tation is just as important as race relations. In a GLO meeting, the members were upset that their needs were not addressed through the Rally or within the meetings that were held before and after the Rally, "Sexual orientation is not acknowledged as a minority group, neither are women or dis- abled persons," said a member. "We don't choose to be homosexual, like many people think. We are born this way, just as people are born with different skin colors." Sexual orientation is a large target for harassment. Just like when white supremists on campus wear Nazi sym- bols openly, there have also been obscene clothing worn that represents 'gay bashing'. Gays on campus have also been stalked and feared for their lives at times. Often gay and lesbian students com- municate through E-mail because they are afraid to attend the weekly meetings held in Union 202, for fear of discrimi- nation, The President of GLO, John Powilaites, said a student must go through a screening process before they are allowed to join GLO's E-mail group, This is to ensure that the person E-mail- ing is actually interested, and not have the intention of stalking the members, Contact John at "Powilait@cs.uwp,edu or Treasurer Jeanne Sanchez at "sanchOOO@uwp,edu for more informa- tion. They also want tn stress that they hold the meetings in a safe and non- threatening part of campus. The room has blinds that can be shut upon request, so there can be 100% privacy, You do not need to be gay or lesbian to join, just open-minded. The GLO 'symbol is shown with a triangle, In Nazi Germany, the triangle was used to identi- tY the gays and the Star of David was used to identitY the Jews, Today GLO uses the triangle to express that some- thing negative has turned into something positive. ~et Us Light Candles 5'i -,~. ~ 'Ii! :>rIft" / ifiW . ~f ~ ber'. tr.oJ~'" A MIi! iclll tura cel\lf-;;tatlon;~:, Decem er s HOf:'fays~ I !'W >0, "'';I';, ~" I \Ji -"!ff.
