MORGAN m?rga017@uwp.edu The UW-Parkside State offhe School address was given in Main Place at noon on Wednesday Feb, 28. Brian Graziano, the President Pro Tempore of Parkside Student Government Association started the address. He said..that PSGA is happy with how active the student government is and how it listens to the students. He said that student government is doing all it can in regards to the interest of the students. The senat6rs may not agree with each other on certain issues. but they all agree on improving the educational experience of all UW-Parkside students, he said. From there he turned the floor over to Vice Chancellor of Student Services -and Dean of Students Dr. Stephen Mcl.aughlin. McLangWin's main point of emphasis Wason the OW System Board of Regents, which will be meeting at Uw-Parkside on March 8-9. The Board of Regents consists of three committees (Business and Finance, Education, and 'Physical Planning) in which 17 members participate. The schedule of events can be found on the UW-Par'kSide Web site. He encourages all students.to take part in this. The Board of Regents only makes its stop at UW- Parkside about once every decade. In addition to the Board of Regents, McLaugWin said that about an additional 100 people will be on campus during this time. He made the point to be patient with parking. Students should come earlier to find a parking spot on March 8 and 9. McLaugWin also advertised the ceremonial ground breaking of the new Student Union, which will be held on the north side of the Union at4:40 p.m. on March 8. If everything goes according to plan, the $100 million project should be completed by the fall of 2009. In - addition to the new union, the roads and parking lots will also be going under renovation. McLaughlin also mentioned the $40 million expansion of the Communication Arts building. From here he "Stop the violence. Break. the silence." The chanting could be heard from the Union Cafeteria as the marchers Circled the room, grabbing attention from anyone buying or eating food inside. After the cafeteria, Rainbow Alliance moved on to Union Bridge, through Molinaro Hall, and up to the Library, when the chanting suddenly stopped. As.Dr. Stephen McLaughlin, UW-Parkside dean of students, addressed Main Place during' the Slate of the School address, the marchers quietly fanned two rainbow- colored columns on each side of the seats. Standing quietly and calmly, they displayed their signs, waiting for their voices to be heard. Before marching through campus, forcing students to hear their chants and read their signs. the supporters of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) community gathered in Union Hall. Greeting each other with hugs and smiles, the marchers came equipped BY MATTHEW MACOMBER macom002@uwp.edu Continued To Page 6 "Come get that good copy!" with flags, t-shirts and signs, displaying such messages as "Gay? Fine by me," "Queer," and "You wanna tear this one down too?" Although it was a pleasant atmosphere for the supporters who gathered to protest, they were led to this rally under very unpleasant circumstances. Carly Surber, a leader of the protest, explained what led to this rally and why they were gathered to march on the State of the School address "LGBT students" staff, and faculty are subject to hate speech in classrooms and in the hallway; posters are ripped down. Homophobic graffiti is rampant across our campus, which creates an atmosphere of violence, of impending violence that every LGBT community member of this campus can feel or has experienced." Another UW-Parkside student marching in the protest, Matthew Sinnen, explained why he decided to come and support the rally ''I decided tomarch today because it is time for the problems facing the.

I spent my activity hour Wednesday in Upper Main Place with many other people watching the State of the School address. Actually, I started by watcbing the procession of marchers Walking from the Union chanting with signs in bang. I watched two of our reporters listening intently and recording the events. [watched two more members of our staff circling the scene and taking pictures. What I thought at that moment was how proud I was of our. staff. It's one of the images that comes into my head when I think of journalism: The event breaks, and everyone jumps into action. The idea may be a little sensationalized in most circumstances, but the dedication inherent in it is real and that's the part that impresses me more than anything.

However, [ think that the only way to really improve tho quality of the outfit is to surround oneself with people dedicated to the idea and wiJling to work to achieve the desired outcome. 1'think for the most part, this is something that precipitates from the top of the organization. OnJy a few people are going to want to strive to achieve if the people in charge are apathetic. This is something that took me a while to realize and accept, but it's something that [ think holds true in most situations, One of the most promising things that I've seen in The Ranger News recently is the influx of people who seem committed to investigating and breaking the news. I think that this has been reflected in our publications. The stories we've had have been getting progressively better and more well- researched. Our Question of the Issue has been more thought-provoking in recent weeks than it's been in a while. Our pictures, comics, and a variety of other aspects of The Ranger News have seen improvement. I think the foundation we've been laying is more solid than it's been for a while, and T think it's a foundation that will support a progression in the quality of our product.
