Comments/Announoemellrs i.Executive ii Senau: iii S!UdeDt YD. Adjoummonl Much has been said these last few weeks about power, responsibility, and duty. These are all very strong words, and for a reason. The one I want you to think about is "power". Alone, we have none. We are the scattered student body of a small Wisconsin University. We mayor may not vote, so why should anyone, especially politicians, care? Many of you likely think we are powerless, we are not. One of my favorite anecdotes from U.s. History is the one where Ben Franklin brought a bunch of twigs into the assembled, but certainly not unified, Conti- nental Congress. He picked up one of his sticks and broke it. Then he bundled the remaining thirteen, and showed that he could not. From this we get the phrase "united we stand, divided we fall". It holds water for us even today. On October 8th, a mere week away, we have the opportunity to do something unprecedented that will send a message to politicians across the country. We have power, and we know it. By getting out and voting early, we can illustrate that we are not only able to uphold our civic duty, but that we are fervent in our desire to participate in our own welfare and well-being. Next week, we will announce to the surrounding cities, our state, and our country that we want to be heard and that our opinion matters, but it only works of we do it together. If you can't make it out next Wednesday, then come down to the PSGA office in Wylie and we will help you find where you can vote. We can help get you registered to vote as well. This isn't about what party you vote for, or which candidate follows the same dogma as you; it is about letting all of those people know that we exist and that we matter. So come on folks, we're buying the tickets, you just need to take the ride. On October 8, PARKSIDE VOTES! Michael C. Riedlinger PSGA Public Relations Director Win reimbursment for your parking pass! Decorate your car to promote V.I.P.and you could win reimbursment for the price of your 2008-09 parking permit. Visit the PSGA Office for more info today!

Fortunately, Plan B emergency contraception is now available for students at the University of Wisconsin - Parkside, Sandra Leicht, the Nurse Practitioner at the Student Health and Counseling Center (SHCC), took the initiative to make sure students at UW-Parkside had the chance to get Plan B. Students had been asking for the pili to be at UW-Parkside and Leicht obliged them by adding Itto tbe list of over-the-counter medications tbat the SHCC orders. It will cost students $35 togetPlan B at the SHCC but, as farasLeicht knows it is cheaper thangelling it at a Walgreen's. Plan B is an emergency Contraception that prevents pregnancy after birth control r.,ls--for example, broken Condoms, missing two or more consecutive birth control pills Or be' ' p mg late for the next Depo p;overa shot. Leicht said that h an B could also be used after d aVlng unprotected sex. Leicht Des caution that using this med· . . lcatlon will not. stop an eXlstino .I 0 pregnancy or protect glr S . d. agamst sexually transmitted lseases such as gonorrhea, Chlamydia or HIY. "Plan B" Leicht said, "Is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected vaginal intercourse." Plan B works by giving the body a short, high, burst of a synthetic hormone (Levonorgestrel, a hormone used in birth controJ pulls for over 35 years), which disrupts hormone patterns needed for pregnancy. Plan B may be effective up to 12!l hours (5 days) after intercourse, but it is most effective within the first 24 hours. Plan Bean reduce the risk of pregnancy by 75-89%. Leicht says that Plan B should not be used as regular birth control, and she adds that other birth control methods are much better at keeping a woman from becoming pregnant. Students can go to the SHCC and meet with a nurse or the nurse practitioner where everything is strictly confidential. The nurse will ask a few questions to make. sure that the girl is not allergic to the medication and to make sure they need the medication. Leicht says that students should consider certain things before they go to the SHCC ro obtain Plan B or for any visit a student might make, She said that students should write down any questions they have in advance, to prevent forgotten questions. Leicht also said that students should feeJ free to take notes during their visit. She explained that students shouldn't be afraid to speak up; "If you don't understand something, ask to have it explained again. Ask all the questions you need to and don't leave without understanding everything you have been told." Leicht stressed that students should be honest about themselves, and said that students shouldn't be embarrassed to describe their symptoms. health and sexual history. "For when students are truthful," Leicht said. "they can get the proper care that they need." Leicht suggested students should provide a list of their medications; tbis includes prescription drugs, over-the- counter medications. vitamins. herbal remedies and other supplements. Lastly, Leicht said that students should feel free to bring someone with them when they visit SHCC. If the student needs moral support or if it helps the student to relax; they should ask a partner, friend or a family member to go with them. He or she can also remind the student of questions to ask and can help the student remember what was said. "·We've got issues" 2 September 30, 2008 900 Wood Road Kenosha.

At our Sept. 26th meeting, we had over 20 people in the office! That's almost everyone on staff, and knowing that totally made my day. The only downside to this is that we may have to change the meeting space. since we all barely fit in the office ...hut we'lJ jump that hurdle when we get to it. Right now, I am happy to have so many staff to help lighten the workload. Unfortunately, with the good must come the bad. We've discovered' that we can't open Microsoft's new file extension. The Ranger News ".docx'', which has caused us problems on more than one - occasion. Unrelated, but still unfortunate: I've noticed that people have begun to "advertise" their events on our newsstands by leaving a stack of fliers next to the newspaper, or even replacing the newspapers with their fliers. This is the part where I play "newspaper police" and remind everyone: Our news tands are NOT a pnblic display board, and should not be used as such. The Ranger News and the other little "freebie" papers are the ONLY papers that belong on those newsstands. If you'd like to advertise with us, please contact Gia or Zak (find their emails in the staff list on your left). Along these lines, I've gotten a few emails from students wbo wish to have articles published in The Ranger News. I'm going to remind everyone that opinions should follow ALL the opinion guidelines.

AdJOurnment I have a passion for politics and vote in every single election and primary, whether it is a national presidential election or a local election for the city council or school board. Sometimes the media does not do a good enough job of providing information about local issues and elections, but there are so many nonpartisan, credible sources for information on national issues and elections that I find it impossible to understand why people would NOT vote. We live in a democracy, in which our country's direction and the policies pursued by our leaders are determined by our choices. These choices touch every single aspect of our lives: how we educate our children; how we take care ofthe old, the poor, and the disabled; how we keep our country secure and safe; how we save for the future; how we take care of the environment we live in; how we pay for our health care; and how we compete for jobs and resources in the global marketplace. The only way to empower yourself in a democracy is to exercise your right as a citizen: in the voting booth, you get to choose.

Alvaro Garcia. the Associate Professor of Music at lJW-Parkside, was the. skillful hands behind the violin. The first piece they performed together gave a nostalgic flair of social gatherings. such as a wedding and one cou Id i magi ne the twirling of white lace.' and the throwing of bouquets. It didn't take long for the audience to see that these two gentlemen were highly skilled and capable of fluidity. When Carl Starnitz's (the song's original composer from the early nineteenth century era) sophisticated melody ended, Dr. Mandl and Mr. Garcia received much applause from an admiring audience. After a brief two-minute pause, Dr. Mandl retired "backstage", while Mr. Garcia returned with Alejandro Alumbreros, a pianist not unfamiliar with the University of Wisconsin- Parkside; he has often held nooo recitals and has received a Masters in Music at Carnegie Mellon University. Mr. A1umbreros clearly showed his skills on the piano as he and Mr. Garcia performed "Harold in Italy". composed by Hector Berlioz in the late nineteenth century. The song had energetic explosions both expressed by the piano and viola and then it would sink into a melancholic? meditative state, only to rush back up in a surge of newfound energy. It was an instrumental anthem of the seasons of youth. After the gentlemen eased into a softened end to an adventurous tune, the audience responded with rapid applause; as if the song had given them an unknown source of enthusiasm. To bring the concert to a close. the masterful musicians chose to play ".!lip Pieces Op. 83". composed by Max Bruch in the late ll\neteej,1th Cdltury.

Once the song ended, the audience showered Dr. Mend\, Mr. Garcia and Mr. Alumbreros with a few, long minutes of their natural percussion instruments. Being accustomed with such concerts. the three gentlemen smiled and bowed respectively which produced another spike of applause before everyone rose to vacate the room. Chamber music is more than "black squiggles 'On paper". It is the embodiment of unspeakable raw emonons- some of which cause the average person to stammer like a fool. Prom trilling out tunes of ecstatic days, to the solemn, sober dirges of tragedy, chamber music may as well be JIesh and blood walking around upon lands far and near. One doesn't have to be royalty or "well educated" to understand the depth of thia genre; one just npods to have open ears and an -open heart.

Community partnerships are an "everyone wins" situation: the mentoring programs receive new mentors and get their name out in the public, while the businesses receive an enhanced image, increased visibility within the community, and th.e chance to provide their employees with a "unique opportunity for personal growth". Currently there are three certified mentoring programs: Big BrotherslBig Sisters of Racine and Kenosha, the Boys and Girls club of Kenosha, and the Circle of Hope. San Juan Diego Middle School is in the process of being certified. "We've got issues" • acne Mentor Kenosha & Racine has several events coming up. On Sept. 25th, there will be an interactive training session about the building blocks of a mentor! menteerelationship. It will be held in the Orchard Room at Tallent Hall, and registration begins at 6:00pm. On Oct. 31, the organization will be holding a launch in Main Place. The Mentor Keuosha & Racine Launch will feature several community partners speaking about the program, in addition to serving as a recruitment opportunity. There are events planned for Nov. and Dec. as well.

Thankfully, things are picking up around here. We're getting closer to a solid staff list for the semester, which means our issues should start to be much more consistent in terms of content and length. Even though I'm excited about having a good staff, we can always use more writers! If you are an English major, this is the perfect opportunity for you as you'll need an internship to graduate. We can get you set up with an internship, and hopefully you'll like it enough to return. Never written a news article before? Not a problem I We're always here to help. Everyone's gotta start someplace. Campus activities are increasing in number. which means we will have a harder time keeping up with everything. This also means that we will rely more and more on you, the readers, to inform us of an event coming up that we may otherwise miss. The Ranger News staff does their best, but we're just humans, so obviously we won't know of everything that goes on at Parkside. The goals for this semester SLICEr are to stay on top of the news on campus. This includes things like discussing the Amethyst Initiative, the VIP program sponsored by PSGA, an interview with our Interim Chancellor, and Plan B being offered at the Student Health and Counseling Center. U you have a news tip for us, please email us at rangemews@gmail. com! I would also like to get a solid staff list for the year, not just the semester-while I realize people are graduating and whatnot, I would hope those that are not will stick around for another semester. It will. help us to effectively publish issues that are more centered around campus issues. This may be more difficult than I realize right now, but we're certainly going to try. I hope you all like our issues so far this semester, and I hope you're looking forward to future issues! See you next week, enjoy the issue!

The UW- Parkside Police Department worked with Risk Management, University Relations, the Vice Chancellor of Administrative and Fiscal Affairs, the Dean of Student Services, Residence Life and the Chancellor's office worked together to create the new alert system named "Ranger Alert". The group met' on a regular basis beginning in November 2007 where different departments managed development of each aspect of theplan. The UW-Parkside Police and Public Safety Department willoperate the system. When an emergency is declared, the police department personnel will send outeach of the following: mass emails, text messages to all student and faculty cell phones (that have text messaging capabilities), voice messages toall campus phones including housing, pop up messages to all computers logged onto the university computer system, voice announcements within the academic complex, the SAC and Ranger Hall, announcements over all outdoor emergency phones and there will be a posting of the emergency on the UW-Parkside web page. There have already been twotests of the system as well as Use during several tornado watches and warnings in June.

The committee will meet again next week to discuss a possihle test of all phones this semester. UW-Parkside only had to purchase the software for the computer pop-ups, which was approximately $2000. The Police Department funded the purchase of the pop-up software. Brevient Technologies offers free text messaging and voice messaging to universities and colleges. UW-Parkside will be using this company for the voice messaging on campus. UW-Parkside will hegin a marketing campaign very soon to have faculty, staff and students sign up to receive cell phone text messages in case of an emergency. Campus Technology sent out an email to all students about the Ranger Alert, asking students to sign up for the text messaging. The Police Department will have a booth at the Student Organization Fair, Sept. 17, and Community Day, Sept. 22, in Main Place for students to sign up online. To sign up for the Ranger Alert students have to go to their Solar accounts and in the Personal Information section, click on Emergency Notification - Opt. in. They then have to put in their cell phone number and click the "emergency opt. in" box. Lastly they have to click the save button. Once this is done, the student will get any of the alerts that are sent through the Ranger Alert system. The Police Department strongly suggests that everyone who has text messaging capabilities on their cell phones should sign up for the Ranger Alert.

Some weeks are really hit and miss. you know? For a reason that I still have not quite figured out, this week's issue is not the caliber of work we are capable of. This is by no means an implication that this issue is bad, however, we can most definitely do better. Part of the reason I feel this way is because there was not much in the way of news stories for this week. I do not blame anyone for this, and in some ways this lack of news is beyond our contrcl-cthere are things we'd like to cover, but are unable to due to schedule conft icts or lack of responses from people we have contacted, Overall, I think this issue is still quite good, and it does have some interesting content within its pages. I hope you find it as good a read as I found it to be during copy editing. In upcoming issues, we will be meeting with the interim Chancellor, discussing the availability of Plan B at Parkside, previewing Fall Fest and The Foreigner, among several other things.

The Ranger News has meetings every Friday at noon. All students and faculty ofUW-Parkside are welcome. Please. feel free to attend. Have any comments, concerns, questions, or story ideas? Please e-mail us at: rangemews@ uwp.edu . We are located at Wyllie D139C Each person may take one newspaper per issue date. Extra newspapers can be purchased for $1 apiece. Newspapers can be taken on a first come, first serve basis, meaning that once they are gone, they are gone. We work on the honor system, but violators will be prosecuted for theft. Faculty members and students organizations who wish to use The Ranger News in classrooms should consult me editor-in-chief to reserve however many free copies they wish to use. And so begins another semester at the U ni veristy of Wisconsin-Parkside: the frantic search for a parking space, standing in long lines in the bookstore, scanning the classroom for familiar faces, exploring the new Student Union, and the seemingly endless amount of activities to check out during the first weeks of school. Student organizations have been gearing up for a new year as well, The Ranger News included. We've been doing some rearranging: we've cleaned up our office, which has given us a more efficient and useable space; we've renamed and reorganized some job titles; and we've had some staff members fill in the gaps left by those who graduated last semester. As 1 mentioned in May, Mollie Egan has stepped up and is now our Executive Editor and News Editor. Zak Smith is now our Marketing Director and will continue to be a photographer with us. Zak and Mollie, along with Ruth Briones (our Head The Ranger News Designer) and I make up The Ranger News executive board for this year. Another project for The Ranger News has been getting our website up and running so that everyone has access to our issues online. One step in this direction is the addition of "therangernews com" email addresses--you'U notice in the staff list that several of us have our names u@ tberangernews.com" for an email. The goal is to eventually get all staff members a "rangernews. com" email and switch the advertising email from a yahoo account to "therangemews com". The iast part of this project is getting a place secured for hosting the website. Once all the pieces are in place, you will be able to comment on articles, view both current and past issues, and see what's coming up in future issues. On top of everything The Ranger News has already been doing, we've brainstormed some ideas to make The Ranger LICEr 8/26/08 QIi.1708 Traffic Violation. CTH E @ C'fH JR. JO;03pm.

One "proactive" idea involves previewing events instead of just reporting on things after they've already happened. For example: the theatre department is doing five mainstage shows this year. As each opening night is approaching, we'll be running an article about the show, the cast, a bit of background about the show, so on and so forth. You can expect previews for other events, such as Fall Fest and the Ranger Wellness Challenge. The Ranger News will also be staying on top of other campus events, such as the new Student Union's grand opening in January and the new Campus Alert System. Of course, we'l! still be doing sports news, opinion pieces. comics, the reviews of movies (or video games or comics), reviews of events on campus, Parkside community issues, and all the stuff we've been doing.

One of the candidates dropped out of the running on Apr. 30, The four finalists are Robert Felner, from the University of Louisville; TJ. Bryan of Fayetteville State University; Gloria J. Gibson from Arkansas State University; and Maurice Taylor of Morgan State University. Our current Chancellor isJohn (Jack) Keating, whowill be retiring in August John (Jack) Keating Jack KeaLing has been the Chancellor of UW-Parkside since1998, but not before taking on leadership roles at other universities: He was appointed TAYLOR founding Dean and Vice Provost of two University of Washington campuses (Tacoma and Bothel) in 1989, and in 1994 he was the first Provost at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks. He remained at the University of Alaska until taking on the Chancellorship role at Uw-Parkside. He has his PhD. in Social Psychology from The Ohio State University, and focuses his research on human behavior both before and after emergencies or disasters. His biography on the UW-Parkside website explains that his most recent research studied "trauma experienced by emergency responders after major disasters." Most of this research was done in cooperation with the New York City Red Cross. He has also chaired an international meeting of high-rise evacuation experts in New York City to study lessons learned from the World Trade Center tragedy. As Chancellor at UW- Parks ide. Jack has worked with BRYAN the commumnes in Southeast Wisconsin. Currently, he is interested in "current reform of teacher education", and co-chairs the "University of Wisconsin System's Committee of PK-16 initiatives" . Robert FeIner Robert FeIner is currently the Dean of the College of Education and Human Development at the University of Louisville, in Louisville, Kentucky, Previously, he served as co-chair of the University-Community Partnership Board at the University of Louisville. He has taught at.the, University of Rhode Island, the University of Illinois, Auburn University, and Yale University. He has his doctorate in Psychology, from the .University of Rochester. He met with the UW-Parkside community on Monday, May 5, and he answered a variety of questions. When asked about the diversity in the student population, and how he Choosing a Chancellor JO KIRST dierdraphoenix@gmail,com Back in January, Chancellor John (Jack) Keating announced his plans to retire this August. As a result, two committees were created: the Search-and- Screen committee and the Special Regents committee. The Search-and-Screen committee is largely composed of faculty, butalso includes academic staff, students (either picked by the school's student government or the President of the University of Wisconsin System), adlllinistrators, and community members. The chairperson of this Committee is a faculty member. The Special Regents committee 1S1l1ade up of "not less than three nornot more than fi ve Regents" , aCCOrding to the University of W1Sconsin-Parkside's website (UWp.edu), The President d . CSlgnates the chairperson for this committee. The Search-and- Screen committee's primary responsibility is to "conduct a nationwide search for a diverse Poolofoutstanding, wen-qualified candidates, and to select from that applicant pool nat fewer than five persons to be forwarded by the committee to the President and the Special Regent committee for further consideration. The process of finding a new Chancellor can take anywhere from 6 to 10 months from start to finish. Since the process is so lengthy, the Search-and-Screen committee broke it down into four phases. During the first phase, the committee searches all over the country for candidates, They begin by advertising the position and taking applications. As the applications come in, the committee members evaluate them and any other documents attached to the application. They check with the applicant's references, calling them. writing them. or meeting with them face to face. Once the committee narrows the pooJ down to 8 to 12 applicants. they conduct interviews. Those who "pass" the interview are added to a "short list" of suitable applicants. The "short list" contains no fewer than fi ve candidates. and they are. listed in no particular order. After the "short list" is completed, the second phase can begin. The President holds a meeting with the two committees GmSON would address the different needs of the diverse student body, he replied by saying that all groups within the University need to be supportive of each other, and to facilitate this, a central inclusive area would be created. Another question asked dealt with the retention rates and how they can be improved. Feiner thinks developing a mentoring program will help with this problem: The issue of public transportation was brought up by a student from Racine, and Feiner believes that the issue can be resolved easily enough through some negotiations with the city. T.J. Bryan Tuesday, May 6 brought TJ. Bryan to campus. Bryan is a professor of English language and literature and the former Chancellor of Fayetteville State University in Fayetteville, North Carolina. She has previously been a Vice Chancellor for Academic and Student Affairs for to learn about each of the "short list" candidates in the form of oral presentations, accompanied by each candidate's personnel file. The President takes over in FELNER the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education; Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs in the University System of Maryland; and a Dean of Arts and Sciences and professor of English language and literature at Coppin State College in Baltimore, Maryland, Her doctorate is from the University of Maryland in College Park, Maryland. She was asked several of the same questions that Dr. FeIner had been asked the day before. Her 'focus would be on increasing academic rigor, monitoring credits and implementing an early-warning system for students who aren't performing to expectations within their first year on campus. When asked about non- traditional student needs, she said it makes sense financial1y for the University to get ahead of the non-traditional student curve, By 20 J 8, the 18-24 year-old group is expected to decline nationally.

The Ranger News Well, here we are: the end of the semester. It's been: fun, with the occasional bit of craziness thrown in to shake things up. We've had our share of mistakes, misunderstandings and so forth, but I think all of us on staff here at The Ranger News have learned a lot-whether it be about writing, editing, layout, photography, or how to deal with people when we or they are upset.

"President Ruffalo feels that these suggestions are not only Practical, but entirety executable as well To ignore ,. , J!' ,I. l l' , , ' I UW-System resources RYAN ASHTON ashto001@uwp.edu Earlier this year, University of Wisconsin-System Library Directors collaboratively SUbmitted a budget request (known as a Decision Item Narrative or DIN) to the UW- System Budget Office to be COnsidered as part of a 2009- iOl.l . UW-System-wide budget nllialive. This proposal, called Advantage Wisconsin: Growing ~e Research Infrastructure 9 ibrary Component), sks-tbar million dollars be allocated to ~ UW-System Libraries for purposes of expanding the ~h infrastructures of all the -SYstem lihraries- including p Umversity of Wisconsin- arkside. These funds, should they be ~anted, will primarily be used t~ expand electronic resources ~ughout the libraries in the fe -SYstem. One important th:~re 111 this initiative is that Ibrary funds wouid provide these suggestions would be a detriment to all students and faculty at Parkside, both now and in the near future," states a press release written by Michael Riedlinger, the Public Relations Director for PSGA. According to the report compiled by the CSc. tbere are "relatively few access points, and several [or the access points] have , stability issues". The majority of the Communication Arts building does not have any wireless access, and several Computer Science classrooms also lack wireless Internet. The CSC feels that every classroom should have Internet access, so that students can "easily download a copy of their syllabi from D2L, check/submit assignments, and do research." In addition to· connectivity being sporadic, the UW-P wireless network is also very slow. "The campus is currently limiting traffic on the wireless network ... Traffic limiting causes the wireless network to be unusable", the CSC report explains. The classrooms on campus with hardwired Internet connections have a speed of IOMbps (megabits per second), whereas the Computer Science Department has a connection speed of IOOOMbps. "This creates a bottleneck for the wireless network as well, because the campus wired network is often slow during the day. This problem is also due to the current networking equipment's inability to satisfy the Current demand from students," according to the report. Most of the wireless access points on campus are far slower than what the current consumer market uses, at II Mbps. This is a problem because students have to sbare the available bandwidth. If UW-Parkside upgraded their hardware, the wireless network would be accessible in more places, move faster, and would be more reliable. How does the CSC suggest UW-Parkside resolve this issue? The report suggests replacing the current access points. "Most Parkside classrooms currently have an Ethernet drop, therefore it would be simple and inexpensive to buy consumer hardware for high-traffic rooms and areas ... An added advantage of this would be that replacements would be simple and inexpensive continued on poge 4 request funds to expand electronic all UW-System faculty access to all of the University of Wisconsin-Madison's electronic resonrces-a feature that should keep university researchers up to date with state of the art information and technology. It is also expected that this increased versatility in electronic resources will attract high caliber faculty members to institutions like UW- Parkside, These high caliber researchers, coupled with the proposed technological advances, should expand opportuntues for bothJJW-l'arkside and otleer UW- System students to participate in cutting-edge research. This initiative is especially important for the smaller UW- System institutions like UW- Parkside. Electronic resources, as they continue to become mo~e viral for competitive academic research, are also becoming increasingly expensJ:e. According to ~-Parkslde Library Director Vanaja Menon, some electronic resources have increased their annual .... ., •• ' 1f I f subscription rates as much as 40 percent in one year, which puts heavy financial strain on UW- Parkside's library budget. Given the high cost of these electronic resources, smaller institutions simply do not have the financial resources necessary to keep up "We've got issues" with industry trends. Menon also pointed out that the UW-System Libraries have not received new funding for the acquisition of continued on poge 3 __ .

I don't know where this year went , honestly. J started working at The Ranger News last semester as a copy editor, got bumped up to Executive Editor (to be trained to be Editor-in- Chief next schooi year), and by The Ranger News May 6, 2008 e time this semester started, I was Editor-in-Chief. It sounds cliche, I know, but it does seem like just yesterday that I walked into this office as a somewhat shy kid wanting to get involved on campus. Since then, I've really come out of my sbell. I've sharpened my skills at probiem solving and making decisions on tbe fly (for the times where I have iittle information to go off of). I'm better at speaking in front of a group, and speaking to people I don't know. I am better at asking for help, even though I still think I can do everytbing myself. And while I admit J have a temper, working here and dealing with some frustrating moments has actually helped me keep it in check better than I used to be able to. I'm more organized, and T try and stay on top of everything as best I can. I am more motivated to get work done, regardless of whether it's school work or newspaper work. I know there's still ways I can improve, though. r need to THINGS TO DO work on the way I conduct our staff meetings every week--I try to keep them lighthearted, but serious enough that everything gets accomplished. I think I can strike a better balance between the two, however. I'm sure our staff meetings could be more productive, and it's up to me to find a way to make them that way. The long hours on weekends (yes, I and several others do work on the weekends!) have been grueling at times, but I think they've paid off. [ am happy with the way the paper has improved this semester, and I look forward to seeing what next semester brings us. You may think "well, once school's over, she'll have a break". Not entirely true, as much as you and I both wish it were. We are moving to the Student Union at some point in the near future, so we have to pack up our office supplies in order for the move. I'm working on putting together a staff handbook, creating both documents from scratch and incorporating pieces from our older staff handbook. The constitution needs some revision as well. [' II be coming up with story ideas for our first fall issue and ideas to use for the rest of the fall semester. The Ranger News never really stops functioning, school or no school. The only time it actually stops is when peopie (either the staff or the students who read it) stop caring about it. I made this letter more about me than I intended, but I think that's okay. Self-reflection is a good thing, right? Next week's letter will be more about OUf staff, especially those who are graduating, than myself and what I've learned as Editor-in-Chief. Until then, enjoy the issue (it's another 16 pages, which i think is absolutely amazing!), and enjoy the last week of classes!

The final decision was to hire Valadis Resources as the new provider. Valadis resources had to create a proposal and send it to a review committeee. The committee consisted of Rick Haskey, the Contract Administrator; Rhonda Kimmel, the company's drive to maintain competitive prices compared to other retail outlets in the area. Companies that wished to participate in the evaluation were required to send a typed. securely bound proposal prepared on standard 8.5 inch by j I inch paper. The proposal had to include a cover page, introduction, the company's information, response to technical requirements, cost proposal, and required forms -- an affidavit and designation of confidential and proprietary information. Follett Higher Education Group and Validis Resources were the two proposals for the committee to evaluate. The proposals were rated on a number scale, with 1000 points being a perfect score. Valadis Resources scored 908 points while Follett Higher Education Group (the former bookstore provider) scoring only 742 points. Rick Haskey, a member of the committee, said that Valadis Resources was a better choice than Follett Higher Education Group because "Valadis met the majority of criteria and fulfilled the expectations of the committee. The goal is to create a bookstore service program that meets the needs of a diverse student body, faculty, and staff." Presenting next year's Student President: Ted Ruffalo MOLLIE EGAN tree_fingers99@yahoo.com The next President of Parkside Student Government Association (pSG A) is Theodore Ruffalo, as Tony DuBose's term is up at tbe end of tbe current semester. Currently, Ted is ajunior at the University of Wisconsin- -Parkside, majoring in Political Science with a concentration in Jaw. Ruffalo intends to serve for the "maximum duration, with maximum effectiveness". Prior to and during the elections, Ruffalo got his name out to the student body by posting flyers all around the sebool, writing reminders to vote for him on the sidewalks in chalk, and speaking to student organizations on issues and concerns that are part of his platform. He wanted a personal approach with a strong visual element. As President of PSGA, Ruffalo intends to reinstate the Presidential Council. According to Ted, this would foster student organization interrelations, increase awareness, and open avenues of communication between organizations. Ruffalo wants to maintain 3 "streamline, but comprehensive. Constitution with strong bylaws". Along the same lines. he wants the legislature to be "clear, ccnsise, and user-friendly". Ted aims to follow in current President Tony Dubose's plan for "Major Status Organization criteria evaluation and consideration, through a committee". When asked about the Facebook groups and other anti- Ruffalo material that floated arou nd campus during the election week, he said with laughter "smear campaigns are always unfortunate, but.i.appreciate that students were taking an active interest in Parkside politics." • • A run to raise awareness ROBERT ROSATI robertrosati@hotmail.com MOLLIE EGAN tree_fingers99@yahoo.com A little over two years ago tragedy struck Doug De Vinny, the Interim Associate Provost and art professor at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, when his daughter. Alex, passed away at the age of 20. Alex suffered from the eating disorder known as anorexia. which eventually caused her death. Alex was an extraordinary competitor gifted runner and with this in mind, DeVinny's other daughters came up with the idea to "do something to sort of sustain her interest and memory and the idea was to do a ('We~ve got issues" race." Alex was a freshman in high school when her athletic prowess on the track field was evident: she set a record at the Tremper CC (Cross Country) invite in the 4K (kilometers) with a time of 14:04. At the Rebel Invite/Parkside CC Course, a 4K track, she set a record with a time of 13:54. Alex DeVinny set another record, that same year. At the South Milwaukee Invite held at Grant Park, when her time was an incredible 14:16 in a 4K race. She also earned first place in the following events as a high school freshman: Cross country sectional. track and field SE (South East) conference 1600 and 3000M (meters). track and field regional 1600 and 3200M. as well as in a track and field section 1600 and 3200M race. Alex's domination in track and field events continuedduringherjunior year of high school. She won four events that year: the cross country sectional, track and field regional 1600 and 3200M. track and field sectional 3200M, as well as the track and field state meet 3200 M. Alex enjoyed competing in the Lighthonse Run. Alex won the women's 4-mile race in back- to-back years in 2000 and 200 I. In 2001 she set a" course record with a time of 22:39, which still stands to this day. and Alex was posthumously inducted into the Wisconsin Runners Hall of Fame at the race in 2005.

As Bob mentioned last week, I was out of town the weekend of the 19th and 20th. I went on a "mini-vacation", and in case you were wondering, It was a good time. I went on a road trip, saw a few concerts, and had a great time with some friends I don't get to see often. Anyway, I think Ryan Ashton, Josh Diefenbach, Bob The Ranger News Rosati, Ruth, and anyone else who pitched in while I was gone did a wonderfui job, and I thank them for their time and effort. I appreciate everyone stepping up to help make suee the paper was able to be sent to the publisher on time, while at the same time keeping the standard I have set for the paper this semester. Not too long ago, we recieved a new-ish iMac for our designer, Ruth, to use. I was hoping it'd be up and running by this point so she would be able to use the latest software and all that jazz, but unfortunately there is still some work to be done. We're still in the process of getting everything set up the way we need it, and incorporating the computer into our network in the office. My hope is that Ruth will be able to use it at least once before this semester is over. If not, she will be back in fall to use the new iMac and work her magic on the articles, photos, images, and illustrations we collect each week for the paper. THINGS TO DO April 29, 20~ Along with the new computer comes new software for us. We recently upgraded our design software to Adobe Creative Suite 3. Previously, we had been using CS I for our layout. This, unfortunately, bas created some problems when we transfer our files over to our art manager at the publishing company. However, Holly (the art manager) has been patient and helped us through some extra steps to make sure the files all transfer correctly. To think that there are only two more issues left in this semester (not counting this one) is crazy. T still can't wrap my head around the fact that this semester has flown by. I must say, I've learned a lot this semester, and I'm sure I will only learn more (and develop the skills I already have) in the next two years. Yes, you read that right--I intend on sticking around as Editor-in-Chief until I graduate in 2010. I iook forward to working with so many new people, both within and outside of the Ranger News. As we get even closer 10 t~ end of the semester, everyone' schedules seem to fill up rno and more each day. I encourall our staff' members to keep putting forth their absoiute be~ effort into helping us finish thij semester on a high note. I realize that The Ranger News is I volunteer organization, and it is team effort to get the paper outt~ you every Tuesday, but we eeail~ need everyone to contribute asj much and as best as they c~ right up until the end.

Interview with a Professor Featuring Dr. Dana Oswald MOLLIE EGAN tree_fingers99@yahoo.com Dr. Dana Oswald has been teaching at the University of Wisconsin - Parkside since 2005, but she began teaching when she was in graduate school while she was a teacher's assistant at Ohio State University. Before she came to UW-Parkside, for a year she taught at a smaIl university in Ohio called Whitenburg. Oswald teaches medieval literature, theory, gender classes and history of the English language. Oswald came to UW-Parkside because she had gotten an offer at UW-Parkside and at a school in Alaska, so she decided to stay around here and teach. She was also attracted to UW-Parkside because of the small. school size; none of her classes are overly huge. Oswald also likes that many of her studenrs at UW-Parkside are non-traditional students; those students aren't here because it's the next step that they should. do after high school, but they are at school because they want to be there. Oswald always knew she wanted to be a teacher because she comes from a family of teachers. She lovesnothing better thengetting up in front of a class that is really responding to what she is teaching and having a great class discussion. Oswald got her Bachelor's from the University of North Colorado. got her Master's and her Doctorate at Ohio State University. Her Ph.D. is in English with a specialty in medieval literature. One of Oswald's favorite classes she has ever gotten to teach is violence in medieval literature. In the literature that they were reading for that class the students actually kept a body count for how many times someone lost a limb from their body. Another favorite class that Oswald has taught is a senior seminar of medieval romance literature. Oswald's most recent favorite class that she has taught is literary analysis. Oswald is involved with Women's and Gender studies on campus. She is on their committee and helps makes discussions on what sorts of lectures they arc going to have and things like that. Oswald's advice tothestudents is to talk to your professors. She said that when things start to go wrong. is when a student doesn't go and talk to their professor. She said they are there to help you and would like to help you understand what they are teaching • 900 Wood Road Kenosha, WI 53141 Phone:(262)595.2287 fax: {262j595·2295 Ads: uwp_ods@yahoo.com E-mail: rangernews@uwp.edu Editor I.

Voting will take place near Java Coast in Molinaro Hall. Everyone who is currently enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside should care aboutthe results of the election, as theywillhave a significant impact on theentire student body. There are four candidates whoare running for the position of President of PSGA: David Wilson, Theodore Ruffalo, Patricia Jensen, and George Lasley.ThePresident ofPSGAbas toserve as an official ceremonial representative of PSGA, be present at all General Assemblies, serveat least five office hours perweek, and appoint one Chief J . Ustlce and two lower Justices to sitonthe Student Body Supreme Coun.The President of PSG A has theability to veto any legislation O"lgn legislation into law call for an ' emergency General Assembly session with two days' notice (as long as it is scheduled for l1laximum attendance by members of tb e student Senate) can create Or di • isband Executive Committees and appointments with a majority VOle f the 0 all members present in b Senate, and create the PSGA ;d g e t with the approval of two- trds of the Senate. Wilson D·d . ".. aVI Wilson believes that "th h· IS two years as a member of tbe student government, "intimate knowledge" of the PSGA constitution (because he wrote the bylaws and passed resolutions), knowledge of United Council as well as other organizations on campus qualifies him to be the President of PSGA. If elected, Wilson would like to get rid of the j OO-signature requirement that candidates need-in order to be on the ballot because be feels that if someone wants to run, they should be able. Additionally, he plans on downsizing the bureaucracy and giving power to students and members of the Senate. David wants to cut the United States Sports Academy (USSA) in an attempt to focus on what be feels PSGA does hest: organizing and lobbying for students on the university, local, and state level. If elected, he plans on keeping segregated fees low, make sure that the latest happenings in United Council are publicized, and improve PSGA from a public relations standpoint. Furthermore, Wilson wants to "organize an efficient and coherent body of the PSGA bylaws, to regulate and define their actions of PSGA in a physically manifested form that will ensure continuity of the rule of law and give guidance for further generations to follow." Wilson feels that the expansion of Parkside should not go unchallenged. He also feels that PSGA sbould advertise the upcoming election to create more interest in it. Ruffalo Theodore Ruffalo is running for PSGA President because he feels that "this position represents opportunities that are rare and short-lived; allowing me to make the most out of my time as a student exploring a dynamic that reaches past lectures and the classroom. Those opportunities include: making a difference in politics, helping shape the course of my (student) community for tbe better, and being proactive by helping to create lasting, fulfilling changes that will benefit Parkside students after I'm gone." Ruffalo believes that he is a qualified 10 be President of PSG A because be cares about what is happening on campus. Additionally, he speaks out and takes actions to solve problems and resolve issues and problems in PSGA. Ruffalo feels that leadership roles he had in the U.S. Marine Corps have prepared him to run student government, if he is elected. The goals he has for PSGA if he is elected President are the following: to create a streamlined student government of proactive individuals and user- friendly rules and regulations, make PSGA more appealing for a greater diversity of students, and demonstrate that you don't have to be a politician to "enjoy and enrich Parkside with political actions." Jensen Patricia Jensen is running to promote campus unity, as she believes that no organization feels valued or respected and feels that PSG A should set the tone for relations with the university "We've got issues" and organizations. Jensen has a wealth of experiences that have prepared her for being the head of PSGA: one year as the President of Sacred Circle, for two years she was the secretary of the same organization, three years as a member of Parkside Adult Student Alliance (PASA), one year as secretary of the Parkside Environmental Club, served as a Senator in PSGA for two years, one year as a member of Student University Fees Allocation Committee (SUFAC), a former member of The Ranger News, a member of student government in the Kenosha Gateway Technical College, as well as being a former co-editor of the newspaper for the Kenosha Gateway Technical College. If Jensen is elected, she has some immediate goals: change the location PSGA Senators hold their meetings, advertise PSGA, enforce what is in the PSGA constitution, make every aspect of student government more accessible because students pay fees that go towards PSGA, as such they have a right to know what's going on, conduct a student survey regarding what 'they want from PSGA, and invite the entire student body to United Council as all students pay for Parkside to be a member of it. Patricia bas several long term plans for PSGA, if she is the victor in the race for President for PSGA: she wants to have a meeting once a week with every single organization on campus because all organizations have value to them, and if they focus their energy on an issue there is no telling what could be possible. Jensen wants to improve the communication between the faculty and students of Parkside and communication between university administration and those currently taking classes at Parkside. Lasley George Lasley was unavailable for comment. Vice President and Senate Billy McCollum and Antonio Roudez are both running for Vice- President of PSGA. The Vice- President of PSGA has enormous responsibilities: he or she must monitor and inform the student Senate on the financial condition of PSGA, give an itemized budget and make bi-weekly reports, be a voting member of the Executive Board, serve at least four office hours aweek, and has to be present at all General Assemblies. As of this writing there are six people running for student Senate. However, an extension was granted until Man Apr. 13 at II a.m., at which time all applications had to be turned into the PSGA office for those who wished to be on the election ballot for this position. All members of the Senate must be present during all General Assemblies, and must serve at least two office hours per week in the PSGA office. Members of the Senate have the power to do the following: pass legislation in the interest of the student body with majority vote; override Presidential vetoes with a two-thirds vote, call referendum or special elections a two-thirds vote, impeach or censure any member of the Senate or any executive officer; or remove a Justice for not fulfilling their duties) or engaging in immoral dishonest activities with a two- thirds approval vote, approve Constitutional amendments with a three-fourths majority vote, approve the agenda for General Assemblies, amend the agenda with a majority vote of all those in attendance, and approve appointments to the Supreme Court with a two-thirds vote and committee director positions with a majority vote.

PASA Dinner and Dialogue 5:00pm to 7:00pm Tallent Hall 281 The Ranger News I'll be honest: we had a bit of a scramble to get the PSG A election candidates covered for this week, as elections are today and tomorrow. 1 think Robert Rosati did a great job in getting as much information as he could and compiling it into an article for you all.

On the same topic, this issue is filled with PSGA information. Besides the election coverage, there is a brief article about some former PSGA Presidents visiting the new Union, and two resolutions passed by the Senate. For not having much PSGA coverage throughout the semester, this almost seems like PSG A-overload. And maybe it is. But 1 think it's a good thing that we have all of this information in the issue. You, the students, deserve to be informed of what is going on with your student government, and it is our job to get that information to you. We're still working on getting PSGA information into our issues Book Introduction with Racine author David Kheridan 12:oopm to 1:00pm Wyllie 247 Racine author David Kherdian introduces his new book 'Forgotten Bread: First Generation Armenian American Writers' during an appearance at the UW-Parkside Library.
