WESTBROOK westb002@uwp.edu Diversiry issues played a prominent role at parkside Student Government Association's first meeting of the semester, Friday, Jan. 19. President Tyson Fettes announced that the resolution introduced last semester by Senator Carly-Anne Surber to create the position of LGBTQ Director had been vetoed (LGBTQ stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Questioning). Fettes said that he believes that PSGA's diversity director can handle those responsibilities, adding that PSGA should not create new positions for the sake of creating new positions, as it would leave the door open to any number of new positions being. created. Surber said that she had collected over 250 signatures from students on the LlW-Parkside campus in favor of having an LGBTQ director position and that for PSGA not to have the position would mean they are ignoring the LGTB voice on this campus. Surber motioned to add an appeal of this veto to old business for the meeting, but the motion failed. President Pro-Tempore Brian Graziano advised Surber that a resolution can be reintroduced at any time and that she could bring it back at the next meeting. Surber said in an interview that she will be reintroducing the resolution in PSGA's next meeting, but if necessary, a speak-out or rally may be created all campus. She said that any such demonstration would be in Main Place and could include a march from the Union to the PSGA office. Emily Junion, director of the'PSGA's Women's Issues Committee, offered that committee as a means of covering some of the issues that may have fallen under the responsibilities of LGBTQ director. Surber said that the issue is not that the other committees could not cover these issues, but that they should not and that too many identities are trying to be held underneath the umhrella of CONTINUE TO PAGE 3 IBERNATING HIS WINTER PAGES PHOTOS BY DANTORKILSEN Student Organizations, fraternities, sororities, and local businesses, among others, gathered in UW-Parkside's Upper Main Place on Monday, Jan. 17, for the Student Organization & Involvement Fair. An eclectic blend of groups set up tables for the event, which was coupled with an Ice Cream Social. Groups used the event as a means to recruit, advertise, and get their names out. The Fair also featured an organization parade from the Union back to Main Place. Spring Convocation Honors BYKAJTLYNM. ULMER eapoe666@yahoo.com Over eggs and pancakes, Chancellor John Keating headed the spring 2007 Convocation, beld at the Parkside Cafe on Jan. 11, by stressing UW- Parkside's diversity, community engagement, and academic excellence. After announcing new faculty and staff positions, Keating reiterated the two charges he was given by the University of Wisconsin-System when he was hired: to increase enrollment and to engage the campus with the community. Statistics show that UW- Parks ide is the most diverse UW-Systern university, with 40 percent of its students in the lowest two quintiles in the state for income, and many of them are the first in their immediate family to attend a higher educational institution. Because UW-Park.<;;ide continues to be an inclusive campus, incidents like the removal or defacing of posters advertising events by the campus' LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Questioning) organization Rainbow Alliance will not be allowed. "This will not be tolerated. We are an inclusive campus and that means everyone," Keating said. "And if there's anyone who doesn't like that inclusiveness, they should get out of this campus because they don't belong in our culture." March 8-9 the Board of Regents will be visiting the university for the first time in over eight years. For this visit, Keating wants to focus on academic excellence, as opposed to the diversity on campus. 'When the regents come here, we're not going to say 'We're the most diverse campus;' 'we're the campus that's really serving the poor in the state;' 'we're the campus that is the best value added of any campus in the system.' We're going to concentrate on our excellence, our academic excellence. Our first mission is to educate our students with high-quality faculty and staff, and we're doing that," Keating said. In the past seven months, staff updated the SOLAR system. To avoid being caught in the "solar eclipse" while the system was down Jan. 4-8, professors posted grades earlier than in previous years. At the end of what Keating described as a "gruesome type of process," students experienced the best turnaround in 15 years for grade entry and submission by their professors. The School of Business and Technology retained accreditation from the . Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International. Uw-Parkside is among the 34 percent of U.S. business schools and 7 percent of schools worldwide to hold this accreditation. The Master Plan promises significant alterations to the university, including the Union expansion, due to begin in February and be completed in 2009. In addition, the Communication Arts building will also he expanded using funds from businessman Darshan Dhaliwal, who gifted the largest private donation January 23, 2007 PARKSIDE NATIONAL SMALL P NT EXHIBITION PAGE 4 dirorial policy and con/till. Spirit and Sports at UW-P STAFF REPORT UW-Parkside will give away over $600 to student organizations and try to break a university sports attendance record as the university celebrates Spirit Week, Jan. 22-27. . With much of the week's activity centered around Uw-Parkside's Men's and Women's Basketball teams, there will be a pep rally on Wednesday, Jan. 24, which includes a meet and greet session with the players at noon in Main Place. The event features free food, and, according to UW-Parkside Athletic Director Dave Williams, "We'll have lots of free things to give away." The games begin on Thursday, Jan. 25, as Women's Basketball starts at 5:30 p.m. Student organizations have the opportunity to earn money for their organizations during the Thursday and Saturday games, held in the DeSimone Gymnasium, in Uw-Parkside's Sports & Activity Center. According to WiJliams, the first organization to show up for the game on Thursday will receive $75, and a financial award will also be given the most creative student arg.- The Men's Basketball game, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. the sarne night, is being advertised as "Pack the Gym Night," as the university attempts to break the school record for attendance, currently 2,048 people. Williams said that the 2,000-person plateau had not been reached by UW-Parkside in nearly 20 years. The Men's game will be taped for broadcast by Time Warner Cable. Women's and Men's Basketball play again on Jan. 27 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m., respectively, for Alumni Basketball Day. UW-Parkside student organizations and athletic teams showing the most spirit, as judged by select faculty and staff, can win $500 for their group.
