adventure  in Cuba  was&#13;
10&#13;
bring back&#13;
something for the classroom, specifically&#13;
groups got involved in Black&#13;
History Month.  "A lot of the&#13;
activities  are co-sponsored&#13;
with  other  organizations.&#13;
For  example,   the  movie&#13;
"Lean&#13;
On&#13;
Me"  [which&#13;
will&#13;
be shown on February  121&#13;
is&#13;
co-sponsored&#13;
with  PAB,&#13;

will&#13;
be&#13;

ia."  Stephanie  went  on to&#13;
See Celebration, Page 12&#13;
about African-American  his-&#13;
tory.  His efforts were  suc-&#13;
cessful,  and eventually  the&#13;
entire  month  of February&#13;
was dedicated  to celebrating&#13;
Black history.  February was&#13;
chosen    because    many&#13;
important  African-American&#13;
figures&#13;
and institutions  were&#13;
born in this month.&#13;
This  month,   the  UW-&#13;
Parkside   community   will&#13;
have many opportunities  to&#13;
celebrate Black history.&#13;
Stephanie  Sirovatk,  who&#13;
works&#13;
in   University&#13;
Activities,   explained   how&#13;

Karen Diehl&#13;
Throughout  the month of&#13;
February,  some of the stu-&#13;
dents,  faculty  and  staff  at&#13;
UW-Parkside   will be dedi-&#13;
cating  time  to celebrating&#13;
Black History Month.&#13;
Black history month origi-&#13;
nated in the 1920s as "Negro&#13;
History   Week".    However,&#13;
the event wasn't  taken very&#13;
seriously   until  Dr. Carter&#13;
Good win,   an   African-&#13;
American  scholar,  decided&#13;
to devote his time and effort&#13;
to the  cause.  In 1926, he&#13;
began  to organize  lectures,&#13;
exhibitions   and  meetings&#13;
DiversilV Plan 2008&#13;
but we are looking for  sug-&#13;
gestions."&#13;
The targeted areas include&#13;
only four groups.  According&#13;
to Duetsch,   the  Board  of&#13;
Regents requested  that cam-&#13;
puses take on other diversity&#13;
issues  involving   gender  and&#13;
sexuality&#13;
in&#13;
other  ways,  but&#13;
only  focus on the four set&#13;
groups for the report.&#13;
The Plan 2008 Task Force&#13;
will suggest  to Chancellor&#13;
Jack  Keating  a Diversity&#13;
Committee&#13;
which    will&#13;
include&#13;
all&#13;
groups on campus&#13;
who will address  the whole&#13;
range of diversity issues.&#13;

Faculty  and interim  Equity&#13;

2008 Task Force formulated&#13;
ideas  in  the discussion   draft&#13;
about  how the seven goals&#13;
could    be   successfully&#13;
addressed.&#13;
"We have  taken  our  best&#13;

In the late '80s,  a Design&#13;
for Diversity Plan was started&#13;
by the administration  of the&#13;
University&#13;
of   Wisconsin&#13;
System.  Although  the plan&#13;
was not regarded  as terribly&#13;
successful,   it  made  way  for&#13;
the proposed Plan 2008.&#13;
The Wisconsin  Board  of&#13;
Regents,   along  with  the&#13;
Multicultural  Office, created&#13;
seven goaIs to prolriete diver-&#13;
sity.  The plan targets  four&#13;
groups who have been unde-&#13;
served    in  Wisconsin.&#13;
The&#13;
groups    are&#13;

Touch Tone service  makes  life&#13;
easier  for   Students&#13;
Amanda Bulgrin&#13;
Ranger Staff&#13;
One of the many services the University of Wisconsin-Parkside offers&#13;
to&#13;
ease&#13;
the load of students&#13;
is&#13;
Touch Tone Information. By dialing&#13;
X3400&#13;
from any&#13;
campus phone, students can hear their grades or schedules, register for and&#13;
change classes, be put on a wait list for classes, withdraw from school, purchase&#13;
parking permits and find out&#13;
if&#13;
classes are available or filled.&#13;
UW-Parkside's service is equipped with 12phone lines.&#13;
"In&#13;
the UW-System,&#13;
there&#13;
is&#13;
an average of one phone line for every&#13;
500&#13;
students. UW-Parkside has&#13;
more lines&#13;
per&#13;
student than the rest of the system," said Susan johnson of the&#13;
Registrar's Office.&#13;
johnson&#13;
is&#13;
aware, however, that there are some complications with the sys-&#13;
tem. One such glitch is the slow main frame. "Students find it hard to sit&#13;
through the silence," stated johnson. "T he computing people are continually&#13;
working to fine tune the system, so don't get discouraged."&#13;
Another issue&#13;
is&#13;
the busy signal. According to johnson, 40-50students have&#13;
the same registration time. When their time comes, they rush to the phone to&#13;
register. "Give the system ten minutes to quiet down," johnson advises.&#13;
johnson believes there are many benefits to the Touch Tone service. "There is&#13;
no wait in line to register; you can register in the comfort of your location, and it&#13;
is&#13;
much more convenient."&#13;
In&#13;
April, registration will be available on the UW-Parkside web page, but&#13;
johnson stated the new system&#13;
is&#13;
stillin the formative stages.&#13;
Program is also awarding  the team&#13;
(comprised  of five bowlers)  that&#13;
raises  the the most money  with&#13;
pizza from Infusino's  or Tenuta's!&#13;
We also have a special incentive for&#13;
Ranger Hall and campus apartment&#13;
tearns!&#13;
If&#13;
you are interested,   contact&#13;
Gloria  Schmitz  in the Volunteer&#13;
Office, Wyllie 0173 or at 595.2011.&#13;
So, start now and get your teams&#13;
