Text Any textual data included in the document W University of Wisconsin - Parkside a nger Thursday, April 16, 1981 Vol. 9 - No. 26 Breadth of Knowledge Students concerned by Ken Meyer Editor An April 10 student forum dealing with the proposed revision of the Breadth of Knowledge requirements expressed much student concern about the proposal being considered by the Academic Policies Committee (APC). Students stated concern that the proposal, if implemented, would result in: extending the student's stay at Parkside, causing additional financial burdens; time conflicts in scheduling courses; losing academic freedom because students wouldn't be able to work directly .in their major, thus possibly hurting their grade point average; bigger classes or more sections of courses which will create staffing problems; and making Parkside unattractive to non - traditional students. Donella Elsen, a non - traditional business student, said, "To me, looking at what you're proposing right now, were I to consider coming to Parkside under this proposal, I would be overwhelmed. I would not come to Parkside." Elsen commented that the requirements would keep students here longer. Assoc. Professor of Physics Ben Greenebaum, a member of APC's Breadth of Knowledge subcommittee, said, "It's not a question of whether we're keeping you here longer or whether we are removing an elective so you can put (a requirement) in its place." Asst. Professor of Mathematics Leo Comerford, another subcommittee member said, "Nobody's talking about keeping students here longer. The number of c redits required for graduation is 120, p eriod. As far as concerns that changing the requirements might diminish the number of students, those are real concerns. But I think they were much more serious concerns with the Collegiate Skills program, and I think the effects of that program have proved to be positive. I think it hasn't significantly harmed the enrollment and I think it's good for the (reputation) of the institution. So I don't perceive any serious negative effects (with the proposal)." Some students expressed the feeling that the Collegiate Skills and current Breadth of Knowledge requirements are adequate. Others agree with the subcommittee that the Breadth of Knowledge needs revision, but that the current proposal isn't the right way to go about changing it. Said Life Science Professor Surinder Datta: "I believe we ought to very seriously go back and (say), 'Yes, the requirements were wrong, there were some loopholes.' Find ways of fixing those loopholes rather than increasing the requirements. Comerford answered, "We anticipate we'll have roughly the same number of students taking roughly the same number of credits. People will come here and take 120 credits. I don't understand how people see this enormous strain on resources in attending classes." Many students, however, do see the strains that the proposed requirements might have on students. There are many courses that are required for majors that are not offered every semester or every year, said PSGA Senator Bill Morrone, "If I had to fulfill the Breadth of Knowledge requirement, I would either be putting the requirement off, trying to squeeze these (major) courses in, or fulfilling the Breadth of Knowledge and losing in my area of concentration because of course availability." "You can answer that by saying courses will be available," continued Morrone. "Well, if they're going to be available, you have to make them available more often or go outside of that area of concentration to get an ad-hoc professor who will not be proficient to teach these courses." Greenebaum answered, "It was recognized that there would be fewer non - required electives at the upper - levels, either in or out of your field. We figured that rather than analyze every single major ourselves, we would go RANGER photo by Dan McCormack BEECHAM ROBINSON (left), chairperson of the Academic Policies Committee addresses students during an April 10 forum. around to the divisions and probably catch most of the problems from the division faculties themselves." The Science and Humanities divisions have expressed concern about staffing, but have come up with alternatives, according to Beecham Robinson, APC chairperson. "How much money is this going to cost students?" asked A1 Holzman, a business student. "It's going to cost you nothing extra," said Comerford. "For almost everybody there's loads of room to complete (the Breadth of Knowledge requirements) and major requirements and still have flexibility. It's only for a very few programs with a very large number of credits required for the major, double - major programs ... that there might be some relatively small increase in the number of c redits." "It is not the intention to pull money out of th e student's pocket (or) to pad the number of credits," said Greenebaum. "If anything the faculty, if it's going to fear something, is going to fear a loss in enrollment because people will decide to go someplace else." Academic freedom was mentioned by many students. "I don't think I need you to tell me (what Continued On Page Six Student demonstration results in dialogue by G. Helgeston A student protest in front of t he UW - Parkside Bookstore on April 10 resulted in a dialogue between protestors and Assistant Chancellor for Educational Services Carla Stoffle. Visiting assistant professor of political science Dan McGovern and a small group of students conducted the protest, which raised the issue of student ownership of the bookstore and coincided with the 111th anniversary of Lenin's birthday. Parkside's bookstore is currently managed and supplied by Follett, Inc. of Milwaukee. Protestors said they felt that the bookstore, as it is currently managed, is a "rip-off" because of "high prices" and "inefficiency" which leads to what protestors said they considered to be a lack of variety in books and shortages of supplies. Student cooperative ownership of the bookstore, students said, would be preferable. At a few minutes after 11 a. m., students began the protest, which attracted little attention from passing students until Parkside security officer Vincent Gigliotti appeared from the direction of the Union. Gigliotti asked the students to disburse, stating that they were violating campus regulations forbidding "demonstrations within the campus buildings." Students, however, refused to disburse and the officer began to collect student I. D.'s. At this point two students indicated that they felt that the administration should know about the demonstration and, despite Gigliotti's attempts to stop them RANGER photo b y Dan McCormack STUDENTS HELD A DEMONSTRATION outside the bookstore on April 10. they broke from the group and ran to administrative offices on the third floor of WLLC. A few minutes later, Assistant Chancellor Stoffle was also in front of the bookstore. After reading placards the protestors were carrying, she asked, "What else do you want to own?" Follet, she said, does have definite problems on this campus. "They have the highest return rate of any campus they currently service," she said. "Also, they only made $1500 on us last year. They're only with us because they think in the long term a profit will be made." "But students are right about needing a variety of things outside of texts," Stoffle said. "We've been pushing Follett to do that." Follet, Stoffle said, was the sole bidder for and received the University contract four years ago, and comes up for a renewal decision next January. Stoffle had several arguments against the concept of a student owned and run bookstore. "Some campuses do own their own bookstores," she said, "but it's a drag on resources and students pay for it." Students answered by noting that they currently pay about $100 per semester to buy books that, they said, they often have trouble reselling at the end of the semester. One protestor said, "I spend so much money on books and then at the end of the semester they (the bookstore) gives me a lousy 5% for the book, which they resell." "It would save some of your cost (to operate the bookstore on a rental basis), but not all," Stoffle said. "On this campus, we're paying the lowest segregated fee in the system, and that doesn't include rental. Seg. fees would go up." "Also, a text book rental system restricts academic freedom," Stoffle said. "Once a faculty member orders a book cm that system, he or she must live with it for five years. Faculty like to be up on the latest in a field and be able to make a choice." Kathy Slama, a member of Parkside's Student Government Assocation (PSGA), told protestors, "We didn't know people were interested (in the management of the bookstore)." Slama said there is a PSGA committee working on the problem and that committee meetings are open to student participation.. "The bookstore committee sets policy," she said. On Monday, Stoffle said that campus bookstores are "never as good as you want them to be. There are places that are a whole lot better. We've been constantly working to improve ours." The campus owned bookstores in the UW - System, Stoffle said, add a per - student fee of b etween $30 and $45. But, Stoffle said, "That doesn't mean students at these schools cover all their expenses through that fee — some faculty, no doubt, require books that are not available through the campus bookstore." Stoffle said that there are also outside problems surfacing at Parkside, as they are on every campus this year. This year, she said, student enrollments are up. Also, a new IRS ruling has ended tax write - offs for unused books, and so publishers are printing in smaller runs, she said. Both these factors result in shortages that are not controllable on the level of the campus bookstore, she said. "What you're paying for is not entirely the bookstore's fault," she said. The Parkside bookstore, Stoffle said, pays a rental fee every month of $600 plus 6% of gross sales. Last year's university profit on rental came to $25,000, Stoffle said. This money was used for various student functions, like Winter Carnival and High School Night, she said. Until two years ago, these funds were used to "keep the Union out of the red," Stoffle said. On Monday, Parkside Security Chief Ron Brinkman said that no report had been filed and no action was being taken against student protestors involved in the incident. Brinkman said that demonstrations are allowed inside Parkside buildings, but that protestors may not obstruct access to University lands, buildings, or rooms. Protestors also may not carry signs supported by standards or sticks, make excessive noise or threaten or attempt to use force or violence against members of th e university community or university property. "These things happen so seldom here that my officer had no experience in dealing with it (the protest)," Brinkman said. "Now that the officers know the rulings, it won't happen again." Thursday, April 16,1981 Breadth of Knowledge: revise the revision by Ken Meyer Editor Revising the Breadth of Knowledge requirements will not affect students currently at Parkside, but it is a matter of such importance that we must not act selfishly and uncaringly about the proposed change. Requirements are the essence of a university. They reveal how an institution feels about the way higher education should be conducted. If the requirements are weak and unstructured, the university looks like a failure. If the requirements are overly rigid and extreme, the university will suffer by appearing unattractive to prospective students. On that scale, the current Breadth of Knowledge requirements are more the former and the proposed changes propel the requirements completely across the spectrum to the latter. What we need now is a satisfactory median. Many problems and concerns were brought out last Friday at a student forum in which students gave their opinions on how the proposed revisions would affect them and their majors. Among the students' complaints: financial burdens caused by students having to stay at Parkside an extra semester or two; staffing problems caused by offering more sections of r equired courses (either that or have bigger class sizes); too much diluting from a student's work in his or her particular field of study. Some people don't see the difference between the current and the proposed requirements because a student would still need 120 credits to graduate. The average requirements for a major are 40 credits; add on the current Breadth of Knowledge it becomes 78 credits (counting foreign language). So that leaves roughly 40. credits of electives a student can take. That seems adequate. But the proposal would raise the number of Breadth of Knowledge requirements by 10, thereby lowering the number of e lectives. Also, the proposed requirements go from the current broad and inconclusive requirements to a set of requirements that contain questionable areas. They are proposing too many required credits. Not only would the proposal reduce the number of ele ctives, it would, as students said at the forum, create financial burdens, staffing problems and scheduling conflicts. The APC should fix the loopholes of the Breadth of Knowledge without adding to the number of credits. Fix the problems but don't create additional ones. It's commendable that the Academic Policies Committee wants the best for Parkside's requirements by reviewing existing standards to see if they are doing what they were intended to do. Revisions are needed, and the Breadth of Knowledge subcommittee saw that. But the bottom line is, their revision needs to be revised. New SOC officers should clean up election process by G. Helgeson At the last bi-weekly meeting of the Student Organizations Council (SOC), next year's chairperson and vice-chairperson were elected. Sort of. On April 7, Sarkis Yoghourtdjian, who is currently president of International Students, became SOC's new chair. Chuck Neu was elected vice-chair. I have absolutely no quarrel with the persons who are in these positions. Becuase of my work for Ranger, I am familiar with both Neu and Yoghourtdjian, who seem to be very concerned, capable people. They have convinced me they are committed to solving SOC's current problems responsibly. And they seem to be very aware of their joint ties to the Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA) and to individual student groups. During the voting process last week, however, I did notice certain inadequacies that I challenge these new leaders to correct as their first project in office. As soon as club presidents entered the room last week, they were handed ballots with a list of names on them and told to vote.. Many voters seated around me were confused — and understandably so. They had hever heard those candidates running against the incumbents speak. Many of them had not even been present two weeks prior when the candidates had been pointed out to the group by SOC chair Jan Oechler, who was running for reelection. Many of them had never met the non-incumbent candidates. Yoghourtdjian also noticed the confusion. He tried to correct that situation by making a motion before the other members to provide a few minutes before the voting process was completed for all the candidates to introduce themselves and to address the pertinant issues. A vote was taken and failed 10-8-2. None of the other candidates then spoke, except Oechler, who was chairing the meeting. When the official vote was tallied, it was discovered that Yoghourtdjian had won by one vote, and Neu had won by four votes, making the election a very close one. Even more surprising than the vote, however, was the number of persons who voted. In the vote to decide whether or not members would hear from their candidates, 20 persons voted. In the election itself, 33 persons voted. There is truly something wrong when so many out of a voting body do not register even an abstention to show their preference on an issue as important as whether or not candidates for leadership positions will speak to them before an election. Moreover, there is something drastically wrong when the chair of that body accepts a vote that nowhere near represents the wishes of the group as a whole. This is especially true when a simple command for order from Oechler would have increased the vote and lessened everyone's confusion. Yoghourtdjian and Neu won by only a slim margin; that means they will be under some pressure to prove themselves during the coming year. One of the ways in which they can gain more support from SOC members (and a lot of other people around here) is to get to work on the sort of proglems that were ironically reflected in the process that Yoghourtdjian and Neu got their positions through. I challenge them to do so.

The forum's agenda was the proposal of the Breadth of Knowledge as stated on February 25, 1981. T his proposal was published in the April 2nd issue of the Ranger. This proposal would change the Breadth of Knowledge from the current 30-38 cr. to approximately 48 cr. A fairly strong student turnout was evident due to the sensitive issue and the promotion by the current president, Jim Kreuser. Beecham Robinson, chair of the Academic Policy Committee, was pleased at the opportunity to exchange ideas with the student body. He said that this was the first time in his nine years at Parkside that he had the opportunity to participate in a forum with students. With the support of Prof. Datta and Prof. Carmen the students expressed their deep concern over th~ present proposal. Many valid points were brought up and it is hoped that this attempt to show the Committee the flaws in their proposal will be met with an open mind. I, along with members of the student body that I have talked to, express our deep concern over this change in policy. I feel that the present Breadth of Knowledge is more than adequate and major change to it would lower the quality of education. If the changes were to be implemented most, if not all, special interest classes would be eliminated. Higher level courses in all areas would be offered less frequently because the staff would have an increased number of introductory classes. Persons majoring in Med. Tech., Pre Med, Pre Law, IEH, and some education majors would find it impossible to graduate in four years unless they took summer school. More importantly, more money is going to be spent, both by the student and the school. The school is going to have to offer more classes at more times and add ad hoc instructors to meet this load; which will increase costs and lower the quality of education. Many students will be at school for longer times during the day andor evenings; some will have to stay an extra semester. Where is this money to come from when financial aid is being reduced and Parkside's operating budget being cut back? I ask you, the students and faculty, to speak out against this change in the Breadth of Knowledge. We should have the right to an individualized education and not to be "universally cloned."

A UW System task force report mailed last week to members of the board of regents contains 33 recommendations for attaining equal opportunity for women in this decade. "This report appropriately stresses what remains to be done rather than emphasizing the often significant progress that has been made by our institutions," President Robert M. O'Neil said in a covering letter. "It is a blueprint designed to give guidance to the entire system in Working toward achieving its commitment to equal opportunity in education and employment," he added. The regents, meeting in Madison today and tomorrow (April 9-10), will be asked to approve a time schedule for institutional review of the task force recommendations. They also will be asked to adopt recommendations to establish a system advisory council on the report and give funding for the academic and non - academic needs of women a top priority in the next several biennial budgets. The Regents' Task Force on the Status of Women was chaired by Board President Joyce Erdman of Madison. It began its work in December, 1979 and last year held a system - wide series of hearings. The resulting report, said Erd- Assistant Chancellor Stoffle replies to Task Force optimism by G. Helgeson "I guess I would be a bit skeptical," Carla Stoffle commented on the UW-System projection of changes in the status of women in Wisconsin higher education during the 1980's. Stoffle chaired UW-Parkside's Institutional Resource Committee for the Task Force on the Status of Women last spring. She is also one of the highest ranking women in the UW-System campus administration. One of her foremost concerns is about the status of women and minorities in education. Stoffle feels that it is "naive" to believe that making recommendations about women's status in education is enough to solve their problems. "One of the criticisms I have heard is that all the Task Force did was make recommendations," she said. "No way of enforcing them is the problem. A few years ago, it was the same for the minority Task Force." However, Stoffle does feel that the Task Force accomplished some goals. "They did a good, thorough job of laying out the problem areas," she said, "and the position of Woman Council to the President of the System means that women will have more direct influence than they have in the past. Reporting directly to the President is a way of keeping problems on the front burner." The only way that women can make significant progress, according to Stoffle, is by making it possible for women to move into non - traditional fields in the university, by actively seeking women for faculty positions and by making visible those women who are already qualified for administrative positions in education. "Once you have significant numbers of women in these areas," Stoffle said, "you'll begin to see more women hired for non - traditional positions, as faculty, in administrative positions at a higher level." "We've got to get women out of the idea that there are 'women's majors' with no alternatives," she said, adding, "It's OK if women want to major in college in a traditional field, but we've got to begin identifying women who need alternatives." One of the ways to help women open career choices, Stoffle said, is to reach them at the high school level. "A woman is still in high school when she decides not to take math, but her occupational choices are cut by 3/4 without it," she noted. KENOSHA SAVINGS AND LOAN ASS OCIATION KENOSHA SAVINGS & LOAN ASSOCIATION Tomakeyour future look much brighter. In the areas of women in faculty and administrative positions, Stoffle said the main tasks ahead are in identifying^ and recommending women who are capable. "Many women are qualified for positions in higher education now," she said, "but they need to be recommended initially by someone important, to get a step ahead "of everyone else. That's the way the system works." Women who are already in these positions need to help other women, Stoffle said. "Women are going to have to be a little more tolerant of other women, more supportive," she said. "Women in administration cannot be 'queen bees' and hope to help other women. They cannot remain unique and different." "Even with men who get ahead, if you are different, you are subject to all kinds of gossip. Women must learn to be less sensitive to it, not to be afraid to be themselves. Women administrators have certain qualities, as do successful men, that make them aware and sensitive to people's problems. This is a much more humane way to go. This is an androgynous quality." Also, Stoffle sees the Task Force recommendations as "pointing out some unique needs of women, like the recommendation for better child care facilities. I hope it goes through, but eight or ten years ago, you wouldn't have even seen the recommendation." "But you can't relax," Stoffle said. "I worry about the Reagan administration. Now what we're going to see across the country is how many people are really for affirmative action when much of the social legislation is removed."

"By this deliberate and careful process we have now evolved a sound analysis of the present status of women, an analysis on which we have built pragmatic recommendations for attaining the needed goals of equal opportunity in the present decade," said Erdman. In its review, the task force found: Regent policy providing equal opportunities in education and eliminating discrimination based on sex had not been fully carried out. Women students still are clustered in such traditional areas of study as education, the arts, home economics and library sciences. Regent policies in the area of equal opportunity and affirmative action have not had a substantial impact on improving the status of women. Women employees remain in lower status and lower pay positions in the system. Current budget priorities offer no incentive to improve women's employment status. Sexual harassment is a serious issue facing students and employees. Campus protection and security is an area of continuing concern. The task force recommendations urged these actions in prescribed areas: STUDENTS — programs to encourage women to enter fields in which they have been traditionally underrepresented, reallocation of student service resources to meet the special needs of women, evaluation of campus security and health services available to women, and exploration of ways to provide more adequate child care. FACULTY — improve institutional records on recruiting, hiring, retention and promotion of faculty women; correct salary inequities between males and females; re - examine personnel rules to assure that women and minorities would not be disproportionately affected by layoffs. WOMEN'S STUDIES — ask faculty to incorporate material about women into the curriculum, introduce classroom materials reflecting the diversity of women's roles and experiences, seek every means to sustain women's studies programs in periods of funding decline. ACADEMIC STAFF — review personnel rules, procedures and practices to determine if they adversely affect the institutional participation and professional pursuits of women; support salary equity for women and programs to further their professional development. CLASSIFIED STAFF — support and strengthen equal pay policy; make training and development programs more accessible to clerical staff; support flexible work hours, job sharing and permanent part time positions; make a more equitable distribution of clerical positions within pay ranges. WOMEN IN ADMINISTRATION — reaffirm regent policy that search and screen committees agressively seek women candidates; strongly encourage internal promotion at the middle management level; introduce administrative internship programs for women at each institution in the system. The task force also asked the regents to adopt a series of changes in equal opportunity policy to strengthen affirmative action efforts. These include annual reports to the regents which assess institutional progress toward affirmative action goals; periodic examination of all employment policies, practices and procedures to assure none discriminate, and adequate financial support for affirmative action offices.

Currently a finalist in the American Film Festival in New York, the film has been purchased by WGBH public television in Boston for a Holiday Special airing nationally this summer. Sponsors for "See What I Say" at Parkside are the Educational Outreach Office and Parkside Women's Concourse. Interviews with four deaf women and with feminist songwriter Holly Near, whose filmed concert is interpreted for the deaf, combine to reveal the frustrations of the deaf, who have limited access to cultural and political events. The film also captures the excitement that a live performance brings to the deaf community, while a hearing audience experiences a new language. Near's music is interpreted by Susan Freundlich, who incorporated mime and dance into American Sign Language. The film is a 25 minute, 16 mm documentary that was produced and directed by Michigan Women Filmmakers.

Financial support for the making of the film was provided by the Michigan Council of the Arts, the Polaroid Foundation and through grass - roots fund - raising. "See What I Say" will premiere at Parkside in a non - captioned version, and will be interpreted for the deaf by Eleanor Collins, an instructor at Gateway Technical Institute. All proceeds from the premiere will be used as completion funds to provide captioning for deaf audiences. "The film won't be completed until it is captioned," Stevens said. "One of the major goals of this film is to show people how films and other cultural events can be made accessible to the deaf audience." "Our work on the film really started two years ago when all three of us attended the Michigan Women's Musical Festival," Stevens said. Everything was interpreted. Now that we're almost finished with captioning, we're really excited about the product we have to share. While working on "See What I Say," we learned not only more about film, but about the problems of the hearing impaired. We feel we have created a model of what can be done to include them in cultural activities." Student tickets for the Union Cinema premiere of "See What I Say" can be purchased at the Union Information Desk. The public can also obtain tickets from the Kenosha Achievement Center, Society's Assets of Racine or Developmental Disabilities Information Service of Racine. Tickets are priced at $3 for students and $6 for the public. Volunteers needed for conference by G. Heigeson Volunteer workers are needed for the week before and the days of UW - Parkside's womens conference, according to Esther Letvin, on - campus organizer for the conference. A training session will be held for volunteers at 1 p. m. on Monday in Greenquist 210, she said. At that time, volunteers will be able to work with the conference coordinators on publicity planning and can sign up to work during the conference. "Some volunteers will be able to attend the conference free if they donate enough of their time," Letvin said. She encourages students to volunteer. The conference, entitled "Accent on Women," will feature a one - woman dramatization of the life of 19th century feminist Margaret Fuller, a lecture on "Women in the Work Force" by feminist commentator Caroline Bird, an organizational fair featuring community agencies from Kenosha and Racine and a full day series of workshops. It will be held at Parkside on Friday night through Saturday, April 24 - 25. Childcare for the first 50 registered conference goers and volunteers will be supplied by Parkside's Child Care Center free of charge. Reservations must be made by April 15. For more information, call Maureen Budowle at ext. 2227.

MDA summer camp requests recruits The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) is recruiting student volunteers for an 8-day residential summer camp for children and teens, ages 8 to 18, with muscular dystrophy. The camp will be held June 13 - 20,1981 at the YMCA Camp Minikani on Amy Belle Lake in Hubertus, Wisconsin approximately a 30 minute drive northwest of Milwaukee. The main purpose of the camp is to provide a release for the camper, a chance to get away and a chance to communicate with others sharing common interests and mutual problems. While at camp, the campers and volunteers participate in a most diversified program of activities. There is swimming, boating, fishing, horseback riding, riflery, modified forms of baseball, hockey and other activities including art and crafts. Because the campers are physically handicapped and almost all are in wheelchairs, volunteer attendants are necessary. The MDA policy states that there will be one volunteer for each and every camper that attends. Without volunteers such a camp could not exist. The attendant is someone outside the home with whom the camper can talk with, depend on and confide in. He or she assists the camper whenever he or she needs help, actually becoming the campers arms and legs. The attendant is available to the camper 24 hours a day when necessary. Volunteers are required to arrive at camp Saturday morning, June 13th. Campers arrive on June 14th. This gives the volunteers a full day and evening for staff training and orientation. Room and board will be furnished. The only expense for the attendant is transportation to and from camp. The MDA is always in need of good volunteers. They believe that the program provides an excellent experience for students, both personally and professionally. For this reason, the MDA Summer Camp has been used as a field replacement for student credit or as a partial requirement in an independent studies program. If you wish to attend the MDA camp, send for an application to: MDA Summer Camp, 5918 W. North Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53208 or phone (414) 453-7600.

She started the first "rap" sessions in Boston, was the first to speak out for women's rights, authored the first book on the condition of women, was the New York Tribune's first female reporter and its first foreign correspondent, and was a leading light in 19th century Transcendentalism. New York actress Laurie James recreates that remarkable life in her one - woman show "Still Beat Noble Hearts," to be presented at Parkside's Communication Arts Theater at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 24, in conjunction with an "Accent on Women" conference the following day on campus. Fuller's book, "Women in the 19th Century," laid the ground work for feminism in the United States in the 1840s, forming the first written statement on women's issues. The book was widely criticized as immoral for its advocacy of women's rights. Born in 1810, t he eldest of e ight children, Fuller was given a classical education rare for girls of her era. She also early formed friendships with such giants of Transcendentalism as Emerson and Thoreau. Forced by her father's death to support her family, she launched intellectual discussion groups for women in Boston and shared the editorship of Dial magazine. At Horace Greeley's invitation, she joined his New York Tribune where her articles called for a new American literature and art, for 2n reform and for women's nghts. She went to Europe as a joreign correspondent in 1846 became a supporter of revolutionary movement in Rome fhl n?arruied a young nob,eman, the Marchese Giovanni Ossoli. duller, her husband and young &on were killed in a shipwreck aunng a voyage to America in 1850. James' dramatic presentation, interlaced with slides showing historic locations in Fuller's saga, deals with the American period of her life and career. James wrote me show based on several years of research and currently is at work on a sequel dealing with Fuller's European years. James launched her show before NOW chapters in New York, later performed it at Harvard University where Margaret Fuller Day" was proclaimed and has just completed a west coast tour. Writer-actress James follows in the Fuller tradition in her own life, combining professional activity with marriage and five children Both husband and kids, she says, are supportive of her efforts to bring Fuller's story to wider public attention. Admission to her performance is included in the registration fee for the "Accent on Women" program. Individual tickets are $2.50 and may be purchased at the door.

Relations: Immigration and the Labor Market" was the subject of the March 31 public forum held at Parkside. The program, moderated by Behavioral Science Professor Lionel Maldonado, featured guest speakers Patrick Lucey, former Wisconsin Governor who served as U. S. Ambassador to Mexico during the Carter Administration; Dr. Paul Storing, formerly on the Bureau of Inter - American Affairs; and Dr. Richard Perlman, labor economist and Latin American specialist at UW - Milwaukee. Dr. Storing was asked to speak when the scheduled speaker, Everett Ellis Briggs was unable to appear. Lucey stated that the current program concerning illegal aliens from Mexico is ineffective. He said that although temporary immigration to the United States is frequently dicussed, permanent immigration is not. Lucey said that two - thirds of the illegal immigrants who cross the border into the U. S. r eturn home. Lucey also pointed out that U. S. money made by "undocumented workers," as they are officially called, is sent back home to support family and friends still living in Mexico. The former ambassador stated that although illegal alien labor is used all over the U. S. unscrupulous businessmen in the border states thrive on cheap foreign labor. The "undocumented workers" do not complain about very low usages and terrible working conditions because their employers will report them to the Immigration and Naturalization Service. "I think we should grant amnesty for everybody who has been here since January 1, 1980. I think that the most reprehensible part of the bulk of Immigration and Naturalization is to try to sneak out and send back ... the most reproductive people to Mexico." Dr. Storing pointed out that although many Americans are upset aboqt the aliens working in the U. S., they do not realize that prices are lower on food and clothing products when Mexican labor is used because it is cheap. "The Mexican government seems content with the status quo, as it allows an escape valve for a large per cent of the people, 40 or 50% of the workforce," Storing said. He said that the Reagan Administration is looking at the Select Commissions' recom- British Labor Party crisis contains political realignment vehicle hv Stisnn Mirhotti " Thn f,..n n.:u.L . .. ... ^ mendations. Storing said that progress has been made by both countries' administrations. Perlman gave some statistics on what he called "the numbers game" concerning Mexican immigrants, life expectancy in Mexico and the Mexican workforce. Perlman said that 20 years ago the 1960 census reported 35 million Mexicans. In 1980, there were 70 million. "If that rate were to continue for the next 40 y ears, there would be as many Mexicans as there are Americans — about 280 million," said Perlman. "There aren't more people being born in Mexico. There are fewer people dying; so that children live to adulthood, adults live to middle age. Twenty years ago the average life span in Mexico was 47. Now it's 64," Perlamn said. "Only 18 million are working out of 70 million. The rest are children — 16 i s the average age," said Perlman. He pointed out that Mexico still does not have an economy with much industry. A video tape of the forum is on reserve in the library under Prof. Kenneth Hoover's name and may be viewed during library hours. by Susan Michetti "The End of the Broad Church? Fundamentalism in the British Labour Party"- was discussed at Parkside's Roundtable on March 30 by Colin Hargrave, a Labour Council Member from the London Borough of Bexley. The Labor Party in Great Britain is now facing its most serious crisis in history and could possibly result in a fundamental realignment in the British Party system, according to Hargrave. The two major British Parties, the Labour Party and the Conservative Party, are relatively •evenly matched in their national electoral appeal. Yet election results create the semblence of big political changes because a three percent swing can change control of government between the Labour Party and the Conservative Party. Currently, the Labour Party is only 12 seats away from winning control of the Parliamentary government. Students concerned Continued From Page One courses to take)," said student Gary Strathman. "You're forcing me into things I don't think I need." Another student commented that it is the job of advisors to inform students about which courses would be beneficial in their particular fields. Luis Valldejuli, PSGA Senator, said, "High school is where they ask you to take all these courses and see what you want to do in life. I don't think we need- to do all this in a university. I'm an adult. I can decide what I want to do now." Visiting Assoc. Professor John Carman suggested that a research project on the importance and implementation of the Breadth of Knowledge be undertaken to determine if the requirements need revision. "One of the main issues here is whether there should be any requirements. And for sure, we should not impose new requirements until the old ones are shown where they are wrong." Professor Datta said that the APC should "mend the problems, solve what you've got rather than create a whole bunch of problems that the students are not going to be able to solve." The issues and comments brought up at the student forum will be submitted to the APC along with all additinal input from other areas. Announcements of division meetings pertaining to the Breadth of Knowledge will be posted on the PSGA office window, next to the Coffee Shoppe. The Science division will meet Friday, April 17 at 1p .m. in GRNQ D-lll. Hargrave said that a new British party called the Social Democratic Party was launched in March by a dissatisfied group withing the Labur Party, which is unhappy with the left wing of the Labour Party. The growth of the left wing in England predates Margaret Thatcher's right wing government, according to Hargrave. Factional strife is nothing new in the British Labour Party, but the change is contained between "the decent left of the fifties and the indecent left of today," Hargrave said. He explained that most of the new left are young people who are not especially well - educated. "Some are sincere, but others are motivated by the savage ... Their understanding of Marx consists of cliches when you try to pin them down," Hargrave said. He said that Harold Wilson has reminded the British people that the Labour Party was always a broad church and that a split could create a threatening new situation. The Labour Party has been more tolerant of Trotskyites and Soviet sympathizers which have only been permitted to join the Labour Party recently; yet this new left, in turn, is not very CLASSIFIED ADS Silly PERSONALS DO YOU WANT SILLY RULES? politicians?

Hargrave said that the nature of the victories on the left contains changes from the past. Hargrave said that in the past, the Labour Party has always behaved in a Constituational way and that the members have been representatives, not delegates. Yet, the Labour Party's program is socialistic, Hargrave explained. He said that perhaps this movement to radical policies is not so bad because now the complacent Labour members are being called upon to be more accountable. Hargrave said that old cliches and dogmatics are abundant, creating disillusionment with policies. "In a democratic system, government should be conducted by intelligence," Hargrave said. The wide change in the traditional Labour vote, caused by massive disaffection of voters who are not just abstainers but actually voting conservative, is disturbing to Hargrave. Yet, Hargrave finds that the members of the radical left are strangely unconcerned. "Pleasing a small group of Labour Party activists is not democracy," Hargrave said. Instead, Hargrave pointed out that the Labour Party should seek the opinions of the people that it wishes to represent rather than the members squabbling amongst themselves. Hargrave said that the novelty of a new party may be a sufficiently serious force that could bring about relignment. The Social Democratic Party, comprised of the break - away members of the right wing of the Labour Party, hopes to eitiist the support of the Liberal party through some sort of an issue pact, according to Hargrave. Considering that the Liberal Party generally carries 15 - 20% of the vote, three possibilities for major realignment are possible. The Social Democratic Party could gain Parliamentary power only if it could enlist the entire Liberal Party and about one - half of the Labour Party. Otherwise the Social Democratic Party may prevent the Labour Party from gaining control in the next election. Meanwhile, this movement could force the Labour Party to become more accountable. "For the press and the academics, these are exciting times; for the Labour Party, it is not clear where we are going," Hargrave said. CLASSIFIED POLICY for student/ student organization 1.

Hopefully it was the start of a trend that will continue here at Parkside. In an effort to perpetuate the trend, the Pep squad has organized two clinics and a tryout later this month in order to put together a group of men to accompany the women at a cheerleading camp to be held at the end of August at either Memphis State or the University of Michigan. For those who make the team the cost of t he camp will be paid. The first clinic will be held Wednesday, April 22nd at 6 p.m. in the gym. The second one will be held on Sunday, April 26th, also at 6 p.m. and also in the gym. If you are interested you should try to attend both of the clinics. Those who are unable to attend one or both of the clinics should contact Melanie at 552-8631 or Shirley Schmerling at 553-2320. The tryouts for the men will be held Monday, April 27th at 6 p.m. in the gym. There are many advantages for those who make the squad. Along with the paid trip to the cheerleading camp, the team will travel to all of the away basketball games in the state, with some of those being overnight stays. Not to mention the fun. Table Tennis Club Parkside students took advantage of the opportunity to play and watch table tennis in Main Place on Wednesday, April 1st. The purpose of the exhibition, sponsored by Parkside Table Tennis Club, was to prove that table tennis is for everyone. "We want people to realize that the club is for everyone of all skill levels," explained Gary Ledger, PTTC President. "In fact, the club right now is composed of players of a wide variety of table tennis skills. This is why we can guarantee anyone who joins the club that there is another club member of comparable table tennis skill." One exhibition table featured two pairs of members. Brian Walley played Hak Jun Kim and Brian Langenbach played Matt Giovanelli. This attracted interest from the people passing by. The other table, an open play table, was for spectators to play. These players experienced first - hand that you don't have to be a good player to have fun — which is the idea behind the club. Certificates were presented by PTTC member Joan Mandli to all who participated, which included both students and staff. Variety was added to the exhibition with three special guests. Assistant Chancellor Carla Stoffle played PTTC member Patty DeLuisa. Patty edged out Asst. Chancellor Stoffle 11-8. Student body President Jim Kreuser then battled it out with his Vice - President, Kathy Bambrough. The two were equally matched. Kreuser won all three games 21-14, 21-1 8, 21-19. The club gained a new member during the event, with another dozen potential members that signed up at the open play table. "Our club is mainly a social club, to meet people and have fun. Thats why the club is for everyone - of all skill levels " Ledger said. by Doug Edenhauser Parkside's women's softball team continued its winning ways this past week by running its record to 9-1, with five victories in six games. April 7th, the women hosted the College of Lake County and took both games, the first one by a 7-4 score and the second one 12-11. Freshman Laura Laurenzi pitched the first game and got the win giving up only five hits. Although Parkside managed just two hits in this game the real story was the defense, or lack of it. Lake County committed six errors and the Rangers capitalized on them. The second game was more exciting as Parkside came from behind to win the game 12-11 on a home run by Debbie Lopez in the top of t he ninth inning. Freshman Paula Sandahl pitched the last five innings and got the win. Last Saturday the women travelled to Chicago to battle DePaul and lost their first game of the season, 3-1 in the first contest of a doubleheader. All the games that the women play are doubleheaders except for the tournament games. The games were played in the mud, eliminating Parkside's speed on the basepaths. The first game was won by DePaul, 3-1. Coach Linda Henderson said, "We shouldn't have lost that game. The field was terrible. We let them have two runs in the fourth." In that inning, the first woman up got a double, then Parkside retired the next two batters and it looked like they would get out of the inning. Pitcher Lynn Barth hit the next batter and then walked two more to force in a run. An error by Debbie Lopez gave up the second run in the inning and that was all DePaul needed. They scored an insurance run in the sixth inning to seal the victory and hand the Rangers their only loss to date. Lynn Barth pitched the whole game for the Rangers and got stuck with the loss. The Rangers took the second game 3-0 as Paula Sandahl pitched another complete game victory. Debbie Lopez got three hits in four times up to the plate hitting in the fourth spot in the batting order. Lead-off hitter Laura Laurenzi went 2 for 3. "She's getting on base and that's her job," Henderson said. April 6th, the Rangers took on conference foe Carthage and had to battle their own lack of def ense before winning the first game 6-5. "The game shouldn't have been that close, but we made seven errors. Fortunately they made five errors," Henderson said. Jeanne Hintz and Kathy Tobin both went three for four at the plate as Parkside knocked Carthage pitching for 14 hits. Lynn Barth got the win, running her season record to 3-1. Paula Sandahl again proved to be the Ranger's ace pitcher as she ran her season record to 5-0 with a two hitter. The difference in the two games was the defense. Hintz made a great catch early in the game and Laurenzi made another one later in the game. Both hits prevented possible runs by Carthage. Parkside played flawless defense in this game, while the opponents only committed one error. Parkside's next home game is Thursday against Northwestern Illinois at 3 p.m. on the Pets diamond. Sharp breaks another record Trudging 25 times around a track with a 20 m.p.h. wind blowing, Parkside's Ray Sharp turned in another awesome performance by winning the 10,000 meter walk at the Parkside Invitational last Saturday. Sharp's time of 42:12.2 set an American record for the distance, thus eclipsing the old mark by an astonishing fifteen seconds! Sharp said, "I may have brought my time down under forty - two minutes if th e wind hadn't been so strong." The rest of the five man field was dominated by Parkside Freshman Will Preischel took third with a PR of 48:34, and Tim Houden took fifth with a time of 54:59. All - American walker Steve Ball, who took fourth in this year's NAIA national indoor meet, will be out for the rest of the season due to a fractured vertebrae. The rest of the men's track team showed vast improvement compared to earlier indoor performances. In the field events, John Anderson flung himself to a first place finish by jumping 13'6" in the pole vault. Chicago freshman Greg Sanders leaped 42'3/4" in the triple jump to capture second place. Lewis Adams took fifth in the hammer throw and fifth in the discus. Ed Thomas took fourth in the hammer throw. In the sprints, Harold Seligmiller bounded his way to first place in the 400 meter hurdles with a time of 57.4. He also took fifth in the 400 meter run, as well as running on the winning mile relay team. The distance events were dominated by Parkside. In one of the top events of the day, Parkside slammed the 1500 meter run by going 1-2-3. Freshman Bruce Schmierer was Parkside's only double winner. He won the 1500 meter run with a time of 3:57.8, and the 800 meter run in 1:55.4. Dan Stublaski turned in a good effort by placing second in the 1500 and second in the 5000 meter run.
