Copying other UW schools, Koss bopes UW- Parkside will join this tradition. "It'san address kind of like thestate of the union, where thestudent body president talks about what's going on with tbe student population and what policies we are implementing." saidKoss. Althougb Koss didn't getinto specifics, be said that be isgoing to address several issues thatare affecting PSGA, and he .. , ~ . .... , ••• , .. , • ~ #"" .. • .. ~ ¥ ... , • r" r • .. ........ -.

"It is a broad speecb about various different subjects including tuition accessibility. " Koss wants to emphasize the good things that PSGA has ~ done at UW-Parkside ~ and explain to the ~ students the process i: of governance, which g: sometimes its not easy to [ ", understand. i "I think that student PSGA"Pci.R"E~S~ID~E~N"T~D~"~V~E~K~O~S~S""'" government does a lot of good things througbout tbe day and througbout the course of the year, but sometimes it's not easy to explain to students what exactly it is that we do." Kess said. "I think it's a good way to find out what's going on," said Koss. "I think it's a good way to hold me accountable:' Kess encourages students to attend so they can hear about bow PSGA plans the busy spring semester and the next year. He also wants to highlight the work of other organizations on campus and bow they are doing. Both the chancellor and dean of students. will be present during the event. semester, for example, the total enrollment was 42 students for German classes, 30 students for French classes, and 362 students for Spanish classes. Although a plan to end the French and German majors is by no means final, much of the CAP meeting's discussion centered on the future of the Modem Languages Department with a continuation of the status quo seeming unlikely. "Imagine if Siegfried [Christoph, professor of German and chair of the Modern Languages Department) retired. There's no way we would ever do it;' said Associate Provost Gerald Greenfield in reference to replacing outgoing German and French professorships with new German and French professorships. Greenfield added that no one wants to get rid of a major, but "we don't want to replicate a one-person language show. ,. Many ideas were floated by CAP. including replacing French and German with different languages such as Chinese. Arabic. or American Women's Center Reopens After Five Months BY MEGAN E. WHEELER The Women's Center has a new coordinator. and her name- is Amber Smith. Smith is a senior who is majoring in English with aminor in Women's Studies, Herjob duties include helping to coordinate events forthe center as well as finding women students who can give the center time. Currently. the cemerdoes not have any female students handing out pamphlets and Other information to female student, on various women's ISsues, from abortion to eating disorders. "Last year, people were askedto volunteer two hours everyweek; this time I am just asking for people to work an ~our or two a month. You can do uon a Tuesday, You can do it on Thursday, Friday; that is mucb easierto fit into," said Smith. The Women's Center can notfully function unless it bas the "woman-power," and Smith is hopeful tbose same people she gets to work there this semester will also be willing to work, or possibly even lead, the center in the fall semester. "I tbink that people want to see the window open, but they are unwilling to help get it open. We just need people to sit in here; you can do your homework. but you need to be willing to help people." said Smith. "Not having the window open really limits the access to those things for the women on this campus," Student government's Women's Issues Director Zara Dittman said she is g.oing to ask at the next student government meeting whether her committee of PSG A senators could spend their senate office hours in the Women's Center to help out in "wornaning" the Women's Center, BY JOHN KELLOGG "Half a graduate every year is not a functional major," said professor Wendy Leeds- Hurwitz, chair of the Committee on Academic Planning (CAP), whose meeting February 7 focused in on Dean of Arts and Sciences Donald Cress's recommendations on the future of the Modern Languages Department. Cress's recommendations include ending the French and German major programs, CAP is in tbe middle of a long review process of the Modern Languages Department. The long review process entails a self-study by the Modern. Languages Department; separate evaluations by an external reviewer, an internal review committee, and by the dean of the College of Arts and Sciences: and, finally, a report by the CAP, which is submitted to the provost. The French and German programs have had miniscule enrollments for years in comparison to the Spanish program. During the Fall 2005 Sign Language; changing the foreign language requirement. or hiring an adjunct to offer basic instruction in French and German at the lower levels but ending their respective major programs. Lee-Hurwitz said that "Most [German or French] majors place into the 200 level," and the numbers of majors wbo started in the 100 level are small. Lee-Hurwitz also said that there is an average of two graduates with a major in French and half a graduate with a major in German every year. In light of these facts, Greenfield asked. "How do tbey [the French and German programs] make a meaningful contribution to the university?" CAP is nnt finished reviewing the Modem Languages Department, and it could take some time before any final decisions are made. CAP will hold another meeting February 24 to continue its review. D , "Come get that good copy!" "Having them be able to serve their office hours at the Women's Center on their own time, a time that works for them. would be great." said Dittman. "The Women's Issues Committee wants a Women's Center, I'd love to, .. help do programming and find a mission statement:' March is Women's History Month, and in the spirit of things, the Women's Center is sponsoring many different events.
