In addition. members of this team need the authority to act quickly when necessary, which may include suspending or expelling students, suspending or terminating university employees. or banning non- university individuals hom tbe campus. The team should also use expert resources such as trained professionals, medical personnel, and local police to make educated decisions. These review teams are also asked to maintain a balance between allowing freedom of expression and intervention. Unless concerns have already been raised by an individual's peers.staff, faculty. orcornmunity members, or if individual behavior warrants review, online social systems such as Mysp..,."

While allowing people to be unique individuals, it is necessary to check in about disturbing behaviors to maintain community safety. By sharing information consistently and looking for behavioral patterns, the campus community can determine how to react to a wide variety of situations. Odd, bizarre, frightening, alarming and criminal behavior should be reported using a formal process to record the infonnation, as well as a procedure to govern how situations should be handled. To educate the campus community about the warning signs related to violent behavior, information will be provided through a variety of communication channels, including printed information, web-based resources, e-mail updates and " interpersonal gatherings. Everyone should be aware of how and where to report strange behaviors and how and when to refer someone to counseling. While acknowledging privacy rights, it is also important to note that in certain situations public and private information should be disclosed in order to "We've got issues" begin intervention immediately. In addition, literature about managing depression, stress, disruptive personalities and crisis situations, as well as the facts and myths about mental illness and violence will be made available. For many people, there are a variety of factors that inhibit them from becoming violent. These can include faith, family, professional responsibilities and reputation, fear of consequences, fear' of pain, self-preservation. self- respect and involvement within the community. When these factors are absent or lacking. and behavioral abnormalities arise (such as depression, anger, drug or alcohol dependence and not (ontinued to page 3 March 25, 2008 News Since 1972 Parkside alum running for Alderman ROBERT ROSATI robertrosati@hntmail.com On Apr. I an election will take place in throughout Wisconsin. with the positions of county supervisor, Mayor, and Alderman up for grabs. Among those who are running for office is Thorn Bartek, who is running for the position of Alderman in the 3'" District of Kenosha, who graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside in 2007 with a degree in Political Science. Even though the election on the first of Apr. is equally important as the upcoming presidential election, Bartek believes it hasn't received the same amount of attention because, "this has to deal with us getting involved as citizens in government, in the issues that are important to us. I think also too that we can do a better job as a government entity for the city in just advertising the fact that there's elections coming up, bur unless you read the paper everyday, unless you follow through with the issues everyday it would be easy for it to fall off the radar ... there was a huge tum out at the primary election actually because Hilary Clinton and Barak Obama and the republicans had their candidates on the ballot so a lot of people carne out for that. but now iI'S falling through,". Bartek is running against a long time incumbent for the position of Alderman in the 3'" District of Kenosha. Bartek believes that the education he received at Parkside has prepared him for this challenge. '1 think the instructors in the classes that I've taken here have really helped. Dr. Anne Gumack teaches a class called Midterm Elections which as a requirement for the course we had to get involved with a campaign and follow through with the campaign and volunteering with that and helping the organization out, I think that helped me understand bow campaigns work." Additionally, a number of hooks he read for the class helped him understand how campaigns came into existence as well as some of the challenges that candidates faced while challenging incumbents. There have been other classes that Bartek took which taught him political philosophies and political ideals. "which really helped me prepare for this."

It throws off our meeting schedule; it throws off the deadline schedule. It can even throw off our circulation numbers. if the break is longer than a week. We decided to not put out an issue over spring break, so as a result some of the information in this issue is, perhaps, a bit outdated. If we had put out an issue over break, there probably wouldn't have been much in the way of articles. It's kind of a trade-off. As you may know, our next issue comes out on April Fool's Day. We are attempting to collect articles in order to run a humorl satire section in that issue, and you all are more than welcome to submit funny stories, illustrations, etc. We ask that you keep the pieces appropriate--think along the lines of what you would find in a PG-13 movie. No excessive nudity, no excessive swearing. etc. In order to be considered for publication, your piece must include your first and last name and your email. If a submission has some questionable content, it is up to our executive board to decide whether or not to publish it. Submissions will be due no later than Friday, March 28th by 3pm. You can email your submission to dierdrapboenix@gmail.com. I am not guaranteeing that we wiil be able to run a humor section in the next issue, but I am offerinll you all the chance to help us ou~ and submit something. On a totally unrelated , .note. I've noticed that some I departments have their adVising sessions coming up for rail semester. As a reminder, The Ranger News does allow students to do internships and independent studies. If you are interested in doing an internship or independent study with us for fall semester (or spring semester or bothl), please contact me. i would be more than happy to get you all the information you need to do an internship with us. We welcome students from all majors, so don't feel like you can't do an internship/independent stndy because you're not a digital art major, photographer, or English or Communications major. Like always, we would love to hear your opinion on how we're doing. Email us, call us, stop in and talk to us, or submit your opinion as a "100 words or less" piece for the next issue. Take care, and I hope you all had a great spring break. Happy reading!
