News February 26,1998 page 2 Tickets, Get Your Tickets Becky Bergman News Editor In last issue of the Ranger I made a slight mistake on the dates of when the UW- Wisconsin Marching Band were coming to Parks ide and when the tickets were going on sale. In the beginning I said that the tickets were on sale for Tuesday March 24th 1998. This part is true. Then at the end I had mentioned to "come out and see what the badger band can do on the 24th of February. This my friends is wrong. I meant to say "come see what the badger band can do on the 24th of March. I am very sorry if this confused some people but it was my mistake and well, 1 am now fixing it. So once again, tickets are available for the Marching Band coming to UW- Parkside on March 24th 1998. So come out to see the band. If you would like tickets please call 1-414- 595-2345 or send a self addressed stamped envelope and a check, $8 for adults and $5 for children to: Badger Band Tickets, Information Center, University of Wisconsin Parkside P.O Box 2000 Kenosha Wi 53141-2000.

She is also the UW--Parkside part-time Student Employment Coordinator. She is orga- nizing the Summer Job Fair which takes place on March 10 and March 11 in Upper Main Place. Bruzas has worked here since December 1996. She says, "My favorite job is assisting stu- dents to find work. I go out of my way to try to find something (for them). I like working with students a lot and 1like to have contact with businesses." Her job consists of speaking with off-campus employers who want to post positions or recruit here on campus. She lists on- campus positions as well in the Career Center job binders. Basically, she assists the work-study and non work-study stu- dents find part-time positions while they are still in school. Prior to work- ing at UW--Parkside, Bruzas attended UW--Stevens Point and Gateway and studied court and conference reporting. Her previous jobs have included court reporting, working in the Child Support Department of Racine, and working at the Racine District Attorney's Office. She came here for the university atmos- phere and to work with both students and employers. Approximately 24 local busi- nesses will be represented here at the Summer Job Fair on March 10 and around 19 will be here on March 11. The employers will be hiring for summer internship positions and regular jobs. Brazas says some are interviewing on site and some are just accepting applications. She suggests you dress nicely and bring your resume if you have one. If you don't, go to the Career Center immediate- ly for assistance. Don't be afraid to ask businesses if they have a position for you. For more information, call Bruzas at 595.2016, visit her in the Career Center, or e-mail her at shelley.bruzas@uwp.edu, Corey Mandley Interview Coleen Tartaglia . Editor-in-Chief If elected, what's the first thing you'd do about the lack of minority profes- sors? .Open the lines of communication with administration and department chairs. I'd do that by going to faculty/senate meet- ings, sending E-mail and letters, inviting them to sit-in on PSGA meetings, and making sure the PSGA committees address the administration. I'd also point out to them what's been done so far with the United Council and the Design for Diversity plan that is in the making right now. Also, I would survey the adminis- tration on how they feel about these issues. What other changes would you make if you were elected? The main thing is to get the PSGA com- mittees working. If they work, PSGA works. 1would also restructure it so it works for the students. I would fight for student's rights and not take personal interests over students interests. I would finish whatever has been started. Once you start something, you must finish it or the credibility of that issue lessens. I'd also like to improve the qual ity and prices of the food here. The prices are too high and the quality is too low. What changes have you made since becoming vice-president? I've recruited new senators, increased diversity within PSGA, organized the "Diversify our Faculty and Staff' rallies, tried to increase students' awareness of financial aid, tried to keep tuition down by being on the SUFAC committee, helped give students their power back with the new constitution, and lobbied in Madison to keep tuition increases down. live also increased students' awareness of the United Council, and organized their visit to UWP last semester. How long have you been involved with PSGA? Since fall of 1996. I was senator, then vice-president. How do you get the administration to react to issues that the students are concerned about? Send letters, E-mail or call them. If that doesn't work, there are four steps to take. I. Rally. 2. March. 3. Sit-in. 4. The last resort is a lawsuit Students seem disinterested in PSGA. Why shou Id they care about Student Government? Because the Student Government is there for students. We address their issues concerning faculty, administration and State Legislature. We work for students. UWP is like a family, it will stay strong if everyone sticks together. From the State Legislature to Financial Aid, students need to be involved or have an input on issues that affect them. Where do you see UWP in the year 2000? I'd like to see Parks ide live up to its credo "A Place of Possibilities", have an expansion of the tutoring and advising services, enrollment up, more diversity within students, staff and administration, and add more majors. With Parkside's location, we should have the greatest example of what a-diversified school should look like. We also need to be in full effect and the newspaper needs to be improved. I'd also like to see a football team and a Taco Bell on campus! Would you like to add anything else to this interview? "I will not bow down to administration for my own self interest just to be liked. I care about getting the job done and rep- resenting students. I feel that the current President has a personal relationship with the administration and lets that interfere with the best interest of the students. I am proactive and will talk to students whenever I can, and not just when I am running for office."
