Former Chancellor's House Rents to Parkside Students: University Leadership House rsident share their experiences Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document VOLUME 24 • ISSUE 15 • JANUARY 25, 1996 ESTABLISHED 1972 Former Chancellor's House Rents to Parkside Students: University Leadership House residents share their experiences •Kristine Hansen News Editor "We'reone big happy fami- ly,"said University LeadershipHouse resident Jill Litkowski. Litkowski sharesthe House with five otherfemale Parkside stu- dents. With a dishwasher, fireplace,icemaker and scenicbay window view the 2,200-square-foot multi-level Arthur Swartz home is primeto Parkside's dorms. However,the girls have earned their spot in the University Leadership Housethrough extensive leadership spotlights at Parkside. Three of them are active in PAE (Parkside ActivityBoard) officer posi- tions as well as Habitat for Humanity. Jeni Donarski tutored children through Kenosha's Lincoln Center. Jill Litkowski works in the Peer Health Educator's Office,is Vice-President of NSAA(NationalStudent AthleticAssociation) chapter at Parkside, and is active in the Athletic Council. Kim Kinneyworks with Cerebral Palsy Foundation of Racine and is a student representa- tive on Parkside's Building Committee. About the University House, she said, 'It's about 500 times better than the dorms." Living with other leaders on campus has been a boost to the girls' own personal goals. One goal Kelly Conwayhad was "to be able to talk about problems I have with leadership skills." Informal living conditions gave her many opportunities to do so. Students who apply to the House must be of sopho- more, junior, or senior stand- ing and have a 2.25 cumula- tive G.P.A., have demon- strated leadership qualities through extracurricular involvement. Preference is given to out-of-area students and those who are not stu- dent teaching, in the mili- tary, or involved with intern- ships. Applications will be due in Housing the week of March 25 after Spring Break. Selected students will go through an interview process with residence life and student affairs staff. While in the house, resi- dents are required to serve a minimum 15-20 hours of extracurricular activities a month, such as student orga- nizations, academic clubs and community service. Or they can enroll in the Leadership 2000 course offered at Parkside. Before Eleanor Smith became Chancellor in 1994 the Chancellors of Parkside were required to live in the home as a condition of their employment. Smith was given the option ofliving there or receiving a $1,238 monthly housing subsidy to live elsewhere. Smith isn't the first to refuse the house. In 1972, then-assistant Parkside assistant chancel- lor Clarence A. Brockman wrote to a UW official in Madison that "The house is an architectural mish-mash which none of us in our wildest imagination could have designed" and is "too small for any function involving more than 10 peo- ple." The former chancellor's residence at 411612th Street in Somers, now University Leadership House In 1966 founding Parkside Chancellor Irving G. Wyllie also expressed dissatisfac- tion with the house's loca- tion and preferred homes south of the center ofthe city of Kenosha along the lake shore. Those homes "can only go downhill on a long-term basis." Being a chancellor you have certain expectations, said Steven Wallner, Assistant Director of Residence Life. "We were just thinking of alternative housing," explained Wallner due to an increased student interest in housing. Since new dorms will be built in Fall 1997 "we don't really anticipate needing it." The 1996-97 academic year may he the last year for the house. Plans to use the former chancellor's house as an extension of Parkside's dorms began during Spring Semester 1995.

A failed sprinkler head that went off in a second floor studyroom around 4 P.M. caused the flood. Over 100 pounds per square inch pressure was released. The student studying in theroom notified the library staff immediately. "There were between two and three thousand gallons of water released from the One sprinkler," said Ed Meachen Associate Vice Chancellor of InfonmationServices. "There are hundredsof square feet of carpet damaged;destroyed." The third floor is the only area not damaged. Carpeting in the Instructional Media Center and Infront of the second floor study rooms Was damaged. The book- stacks on the second floor that were on loan from UW- Milwaukee will have to be moved. "Only because we had plas- tic available could we cover the bookstacks," said Meachen. "We didn't lose any books due to the wonderful library staff on duty. We had a whole bunch of stu- dents who helped, who didn't even work here, and they were getting ready for finals" But, "It was funny because some of the students kept on studying right through the whole disaster." Those who abandoned their books for a few minutes to help out were: Mark Rizzo, Joel Buschmann, Vilay Phonesavanh, Lisa Lewis, Deborah Eden, Sarah Masley and Jeanne Sanchez. David Gehring and Linda Piele of the library staff were on hand to assist the students. Rosann Mason and her daughter were in the library also and helped out. The ceiling in the office of Multicultural Student Affairs (OMSA) came down, destroying computers and miscellaneous papers. "The water in the hall- ways was coming down like a waterfall," said Meachen. Also, on the 91 level, the paper storage room for duplicat- ing received damage but was able to be saved from complete destruction. Meachen estimated the cost for repairs to be between $30.000 and $40,000. The carpet will cost from $29,000 to $30,000 to replace. The ceiling tile, at about $50 a tile, will cost between $10,000 and $1 1,000. However, he said, there will be bare concrete floor until the damaged carpet areas are replaced in May. Meachen said there is a TUmor that a student in the sec- ond floor study room, a few days prior to the flood, witnessed drip- ping water, but did not report it. Had the report been filed, he said, $40,000 in damage could have been prevented. "I can not praise enough all the work the students did that night," he said.

Postcards were collected from students, parents, alumni, prospective students, friends, and community leaders. "More than 13,500 were collected which shows the high level of concern people have for the UW System," said Timothy L. Casper, president of United Council of UW Students. The UW System budget suffered a net cut of $43 million in state support, and tuition increases totaled 10.5 percent to 14.2 percent during the 1995-97 biennium. The result of admin- istrative cuts was a reduction in services and access to them. UW institutions were forced to limit the number of course sec- tions and to offer others less frequently. There were also reductions in campus police and public safety services. For the 1997-99 biennium, the UW System was instructed to submit budget plans for a 3 percent increase and also a 3.5 percent reduction. According to Steve Perala, legislative affairs director of United Council of UW Students, "If the UW System sees another cut in state support, there will be even greater reductions in classes and an increase in department closings, which would be dev- astating to students and their potential job opportunities." Students are particularly concerned with two funding ini- tiatives: academic advising and distance education. Better advising would improve the retention of freshmen, help stu- dents take courses that would make them more marketable in the workforce, and allow stu- dents to get their degrees in a shorter period. "This is the part of the bud- get UW System students have set as apriority," said Amy Bechtum, academic affairs director of United Council of UW Students. The UW System budget also requested funding for site support in distance education and improvements in classroom technology. This funding would allow increased access to stu- dents who wish to participate in distance learning, as well as provide support for faculty and staff who need additional instruction on how to offer these courses to students. "Distance Education is a growing field," said Bechturn. "Students want to be sure that if they are tak ing these courses, they wi II have the support and appropriate technology to ensure that they are getting a quality education." "Students are concerned about the future of funding for the UW System and are urging the Governor to make higher education a priority in the upcoming state biennial bud- get," said Casper.

A main- tenance supervisor set off Safety when using bank ATM's According to securi- ty experts, the chances of being involved in an ATM, also called "automated teller machines," crime in the United States are very remote. Only one in every 3.5 million transactions results in a robbery. Nevertheless, ATM crimes do occur, so consumers need to be cautious and vig- ilant when transacting busi- ness at an ATM. ATMs can be found throughout most communi- ties. The 24-hour per day convenience of using ATMs to conduct banking business has grown to over 7-billion per year. With such a phe- nomenal growth in use, the potential for robbery. also grows. However; with a number of simple precau- tions your trip to the ATM can be a safe, efficient and positive experience: • Nearly half of all ATM crimes occur between the hours of 7 p.rn. and mid- night. That's why it's important to look for ATM machines that have good lighting and are in a location that is highly tr ave le d. • When using an ATM, perform a quick visual scan of the machine itself and the immediate area sur- rounding it. If you see any- thing odd or anyone who looks or is acting suspi- cious, simply do not use that machine and choose another. * Avoid setting a pattern of always using the same machine at the same time of day or the same day of the week. • If you feel safer using an ATM in daylight, be aware of changing seasonal pat- terns and shift to making transactions in the morning or during your lunch hour in winter rather than waiting until after work when it gets dark early in the after- noon. * Avoid locations with excess shrubbery, nearby blind cor ner s, or a design which does not provide you with clear lookout and a safe feeling. • Approach the machine prepared. Do not fumble around when USIng a machine at" night or when other people are in 'line waiting to use the machine. By making every effort to conduct your transaction quickly and efficiently, and by getting on your way rapidly, you make yourself less of a target for a wou ld- be thief. • Have your ATM card out and ready to use. Have your PIN (personal identifi- cation number) memorized and know what business you want to transact. • Never write your PIN on your ATM card. Do not write it anywhere with a notation a robber could access, who might rummage through your belongings, * Show the same concern and wariness when bringing cash to an ATM machine for deposit as when leaving with cash you have with- drawn. When depositing checks, always use a restricted endorsement such as "For Deposit Only." Do not use the ATM machine to deposit coins. * Exercise extreme caution and do not give out infor- mation about your card or PIN by phone, even to someone you think may be : connected with your bank. If there is a problem with your account or PIN, dis- cuss it in person. • When using a drive- th rough ATM, keep your engine running, keep all doors locked, keep windows other than the one used in the transaction rolled up. Observe what is happening around and behind you before rolling down the window to use the ATM, and be aware of any strange movements throughout the transaction. • If you encounter an ATM site that is poorly lighted, has obstructed views, or has overgrown shrubbery, report the problems to the financial institution so it can rectify them. We all must use the very same pre- cautions in using ATMs as when carrying cash to or from the bank itself. 8y doing so, we will ensure that our transactions are efficient and safe.

I '~~q~s, I T Y , 0 F ; W I S CON SIN - PAR K SID E VOLUME 24 • ISSUE 14 • JANUARY 18, 1996 DaleWheeler: GivingBack to the Community • Genevieve Guran PhotoEditor Prof. Dale Wheeler of Parkside's chemistry depart- ment believes in giving back to the community. Organizing the events of National Chemistry Week is one way he has found to do this. For the last two years Prof.Wheeler has served as the chairman of the commit- I tee responsible for the events of National Chemistry Week in our nine county area. National Chemistry Week is an event which grew out of National Chemistry Day which was initiated by the American Chemical Society overa decade ago. National I Chemistry Day began as an ~ttempt to shine a positive light on chemistry, to show peoplehow their lives have benefitted from advance- ments in chemistry, and to givethem a basic "chemical literacy." Nowthe events of National Chemistry Week are largely i geared toward peaking the mterest of grade school and I highschool students. Prof. I Wheeler, along with volun- teers from UW-Milwaukee Marquette, Carroll College: and Parkside, made the week I a fun and memorable learn- ingexperience for the 3700 kidswho attended the festiv- ities which took place at Discovery World in lIil waukee. I Prof. Wheeler also orga- nized a number of other lJnaginativeand educational activities. Three local high ~hools participated in Dale Wheeler Professor of Chemistry at UW-Parkside National Mole Day (Oct. 23rd) and the winning high school, Washington Park in Racine, will be visited by a team from CHEM-TV, a pro- gram put out by Dow Chemical Company to pro- mote chemistry. In a compe- tition called Elements of Our World, also organized by Prof. Wheeler, grade .school classes each picked an ele- ment from the Periodic Table and described why it is important to the world. In another competition, Battle of the Burets, 50 high school students, in teams of two, took part in a titrating com- petition. Finally, as part of a "Chemistry Buddies Program," high school stu- dents visited grade schools and helped the younger kids carry out simple chemistry experiments. These programs and activi- ties all have one thing in common: they promote an interest in science in general and chemistry in particular. They also promote a wonder- ful spirit of cooperation and teamwork. Prof. Wheeler's work with these programs has been of great benefit to students in Southeastern Wisconsin. He says of his work with area schools: llWe are a communi- ty-based university and we should be involved in the community ... .1 guess I have embraced that role and I like it .. .1 like to allow people an opportunity to learn some- thing if they want to." ESTABLISHED 1972 Con Artists • Derek Bishop Staff Writer Purchasing swampland in Florida, fast money-making schemes, and get-rich-quick offers are just some of the sales pitches that are with- drawing money from the pockets of the numerous uninformed. Basically, these "Con" methods take your money and leave like a one- night stand. Recently, university offi- cials have been notified that several Parkside students have become a part of a "bogus" company called Fortune in Motion (Suite 601-1001 West Broadway; Vancouver, British Columbia, V6B 4Hl Canada, (604) 731-0737). Individuals are lured through sales meetings which are held throughout the state (WI) to invest money with an individual broker. The person invest- ing the money actually becomes a customer of the broker, who in turn, is encouraged to go out and recruit other people with the intent that the investor will eventually become a broker and qualify for low priced travel trips . Usually nobody profits in this "pyramid structured" scheme except for the bro- ker. The investor is left with recourse, because the com- pany does not actually hold the money; the broker con- trols the money. It is consid- ered a chain distribution scheme. The Justice Department for the State of Wisconsin has filed a lawsuit against this company but no trial date has yet been scheduled. The Justice Department reflects that the company has violated the Agriculture Trade and Consumer Protection Administrative Code #122. The department also states that anybody who continues to do business with Fortune in Motion does so at their own risk. And any individual who feels that he or she has been vic- timized by this investment scheme should seek legal counsel.

Smile for a Child • Derek Bishop Staff Writer Two major status organi- zations of Parkside have spread the good cheer by col- lecting donated toys for needy children. Latinos Unidos and the Black Student Union have gath- ered numbers again for the Second Annual Smile For A Child organization. The sophomore crusade debuted in November of 1994 which allowed the organizations time to prepare for each upcoming ho-ho season. When most clubs channel their energy to the Parkside campus the two organiza- tions have gone against the grain, "The program (Smile for a Child) united the two clubs and strives to benefit the communities of Kenosha and Racine", said BSU-SOC Representative, Greg Jones. Two children are all smiles thanks to the efforts of Latinos Unidos and Black Student Union. The cooperative clubs established numerous loca- tions throughout the Parks ide campus and col- lected toys from November 20 to December 16. "Last year, we donated over 200 toys to the Spanish Center and the Lincoln Center of Kenosha," stated Latinos Unidos Secretary and Chairperson for the Project, Angelita Garcia. "This year, the groups have donated about 200 toys to the Love and Charity Mission in Racine and the Safe House in Kenosha." PSGA U'pdate: Resignations and elections at 12/15 meeting • Kristine Hansen News Editor Parkside Student Government Association met on December 15, 1995 and closed out the semester with a series of elections and resolutions for the New Year. Tom Belongia shocked fel- low PSGAers by announcing his resignation as Senator effective February 2. "I don't feel I can serve the students of the university. I hope the Senate can move on to more important issues. Let's move on to the students," said Belongia. Belongia would like to con- tinue working with legisla- tive affairs in Student Government after February 2. Tyson Wilda was elected and sworn in as PSGA Vice- President and resigned from his Senator position. Steven Zieman resigned from his Senator position effective January 16 due to work conflicts. Two new Senators were nominated to replace Wilda and Zieman. PSGA President 'Ibm Richie opened the meeting with reports from the Facilities and Planning Committee, Transportation Committee, and Career Planning Committee. The Facilities and Planning Committee is looking for ways to reorganize space and will begin touring class- rooms soon. One PSGA member is working as part of the Transportation Committee by putting together a survey on usage of the Racine Bus and Kenosha Transit. Richie stated that the Kenosha Transit recently came down from $90,000 to about $80,000. The Career and Planning Committee is recruiting Kenosha and Racine high school students and has talked with Chancellor Eleanor Smith about sup- porting the Student Health Services move which some faculty are against. Tyson Wilda said, "The response time isn't realistically going to go'down due to the move." Wilda was originally against the move. Teri Jacobson, President Pro Tern and Chair of SUFAC, reported on the Search and Screen Committee, which is in the process of reviewing resumes and setting up interviews for a computer management technician position who will spend half of his/her time manning the computer assistant desk and the other half of his/her time hosting workshops for students and faculty. PSGA Senator Karen Diehl suggested Campus Police be asked to reevalu- ate their responsibilities toward housing students. "When any student needs help from Campus Police, they need approval from DeAnn Stone," said Diehl. Stone is the Director of Residence Life and can not always be reached during weeknights or weekends. "They have the authority to write tickets but they can't get your keys out," said one PSGA member, referring to students locking their keys in their cars. Some of the emergency phones are not working. Print Disappearance • Derek Bishop Staff Writer On December 12, 1995, (4:30 p.m.) University Police reported a framed print entitled Truce. by Ron Fundingslend, had been taken from the wall at Molinaro D-130. The art work had been purchased and dis- played by the Art Department for public enjoyment. It is hoped that the personts) responsible will return the work of art. A $50 reward is being offered by the University Police for information leading to the arrest, conviction, and return of the miss- ing print. In the event that the print is returned to the Art Department undam- aged, no questions will be asked. Information regarding the print can be directed to campus policeat 595-2455.

Third time around for The First Amendment-:~~.' ~, Mt, .......... r+~\<i,nrl), • Kristine Hansen NewsEditor Beginning this semester Parkside students will have a second newspaper to con- sult called The First Amendment. However, this is not an inauguration. Faculty and some students may remember the paper because of its inconsistent publishing since 1991. English professors Pamela Gilbert and Alan Shucard haveagreed to serve as advi- sors to The First Amend- ment. With the motto "Read our paper even if you can't find ouroffice,"current Editor-in- Chief Pam Bradshaw and Managing Editor Ron Mulder have been rationing their $440.00 budget while searching for an office. They recently have secured the WLBRradio station room in the Parkside Union. Bradshaw and Mulder were told by S.O.C. President Nathan Piper that S.O.C. will not allow them to create a facsimile paper to compete with The Ranger News. "It [The First Amend- ment] started as a serious newspaper that quickly degenerated to a humor forum," explained Bradshaw. Mulder added that, "[Now] the purpose is to provide stu- dents with news regarding Parkside, the UW system, plus state and federal legis- lation affecting students. It is also intended to be a seri- ous editorial forum for stu- dent news." The First Amendment was started -by Jeff Woosley in 1991 as a monthly newspa- per. Parkside student Arian Adair-Nichols attempted to revive the paper last year. "The plan would have worked, but the people did not. Originally, we had hoped it would be a self-suffi- cient newspaper," said Adair- Nichols. Some topics student writ- ers will tackle include cam- pus events, political events in the communitY.NIL such as strikes and rallies and an alter- native page.

Mapia's Melange by Maria Smith Ranger Columnist I'm an adult survivor of "The Great Santa Claus Hoax". There, 1 said it....ha~py now? 1don t know about any of you, but don't you find this whole Santa Claus thing we're still feeding our youth a bit psychotic? 1 think we're seriously screwing with the minds of these trusting young people. Consider this, we tell these gullible children that Santa works only one night to deliver gifts to all the children around the world on Christmas Eve. Now, 1don't know about any of you, but when -I was a kia 1 thought Santa was some kind of work- aholic freak when my parents told me that one. Then we tell kids that Santa only deliv- ers to the "good"chil- dren and that he's always watching them. Santa is sounding a bit like he could be arrest- ed for stalking with that line of bull. What about telling these children that he comes down the chim- ney? Well, when 1 was about seven 1wondered how Santa was going to shimmy his butt down my chimney because it was cemented shut and just used as a decora- tion. Let's not forget the "Santa has reindeer that can fly" bull . They have no winEf" but they can fly. When 1was young, my broth- er Peter and cousin Butchie thought that if reindeer could fly with- out wings then so could they. They both jumped out of the sec- ond story window of our house on Christmas Eve because my mother and aunt told them that they thought they just saw Santa and his more cash from that damned fairy. My mother used to tell me it was because he was older. What the hell did that have to do with anything, 1 thought? 1later found out that my brother was scamming one of the two quarters that mom used to put under my pillow. Anyway, back to the matter at hand. Three Big Lies reindeer overhead. Yes, they're both okay and today our family still tells that story to embarrass them (like I'm doing now), but when you're six or seven years old and the adults you trust tell you such sensationalis- tic stories in a very believable way, you can make a few errors in judgement, like hurling your body out of a win- dow. Not me. 1knew pretty early on that they were lying. Toget even, I'd play an occasional joke on them. When 1was eight 1 snuck under the Christmas tree and rearranged all of the name tags on the gifts. So, that year dad received a "Beach Malibu Barbie" and my brother got a bra. Does anyone remem- ber the Easter Bunny? At least Santa was human, but with this lie we're telling kids that a fricken bunny is toting baskets full of chocolate all over the country leaving them on the dressers of chil- dren who believe. Where did this bunny come from anyway? And what does he have to do with this very religious holiday? My best friend Donna, who is now a doctor and owns her own practice . recalled to me that sh~ was always petrified of rabbits when she was a child after having been bitten by a wild one, yet her parents still told her that the Easter Bunny was going to sneak into her room on Easter morning. She told me that she was scared sh--Iess and used to set all kinds of elaborate traps to try and stop the blood hun- gry bunny from reach- mg her bed. Parents don't realize how scary some of these fictitious characters can be to a child. Haven't you ever seen a screaming child who was scared out of his/her little mind when he/she sat on Santa's lap? 1would be too, have you seen some of tliese Santa wannabee's? He's a stranger who usually reeks of the egg roll he recently ate in the mall courtyard on one of his "Santa breaks" and is always looking at his watch to determine when he and his rein- deer can go home and heat up a TV dinner and pop an X-rated movie m the VCR Talk about tall tales, what about the ridicu- lous tale of the "Tooth Fairy". Now, this is a completely useless lie. What's the point? Just tell your kid to give you the tooth and you'll give them the money. \\2J.y lie? When my brother and sisters and I lost our teeth as we were grow- ing, we were told, as are most of our youth, to put the tooth under our respective pillows and the tooth fairy would put some cash in place of the "missing body part" while we slept (think about what we re doing here ... money for a body part). 1can remember many a night with that half- bloody tooth under my pillow just waiting for this fairy with her bag of cash to appear. 1never did see her but my mother assured me that she was real. 1 remember wondering why the tooth fairy always gave my trou- ble-makmg brother more money than me. 1 couldn't figure this bitch out. She must like boys better than girls, 1thought. Peter always made out with better gifts from Santa bigger baskets from the Easter Bunny, and Whl' do we do it? Wh can t we make our rei. gious holid~'ys truly religious? Why must we lie to our children? We can still celebrate' these holidays. We can still stimulate the imaginations of our children and we can do it all without perpatu. ating' some ~retty coles, sal lies like 'The Great Santa Clau~ Easter Bunny andlOoth Fairy Hoaxes".

Are you listening? Inthe lane, snow is ...HEY! Are you listening? You never listen to anything I say. And even when I ring sleigh bells-big, loud, nasty honkin' sleigh bells-you're off someplace else. And just like that, a simple Christmas carol is transformed into a lively argument. Arguments are healthy, though. It keeps the road of communication open, even if it's a rough one. But when the road is closed-or when carolers at the door provoke night long fights-it's probably time to re-evaluate your situation. I'd like to get through my half of the column with as few Neil Sedaka references as possible (column column down, doobie doo ~own down), but they say that breaking up is hard to do. (They talk a lot, don't they?) Anything that once greatly enhanced your life, i.e., playoff games, a twenty dollar bill, your soul mate, is going to cause you despair when they're lost. Unless your team didn't even make it to the playoffs. Man buys ring, woman throws it away. Same damn thing happens everyday. But some couples have more at stake than others, and these matters ("we're married, and she's the rich one") further complicate things. Divorces are expensive, involve lawyers, and are generally ugly. Children become pawns in their parents' wicked games. Even when it's strictly physical, there's still something missing afterwards-the other person. Ifyou've learned anything from this column over this semester, it is that men are rational and women are ...not. However, all rationality gets thrown out the window-along with all the little things to remember her by-just before the relationship does. When a relationship collapses on itself, it leaves an enormous and powerful black hole that sucks in everything and makes everything suck. I generally do not actively advocate the termination of any relationship, because if! didn't want to be in a relationship, I wouldn't have put myself there in the first place. Communication heals all wounds. But how do you talk when both the man and woman have gone bonkers? How can you resolve a situation that will not change? Removing yourself from the situation works, and this allows you to divert your time to such healthy activities as revenge, moping, aggressive driving, drinking alone, Nine Inch Nails, and looking for Miss Rebound. Hey! Time for some male bonding, household projects, or automotive repair. A real man would incorporate all three into one, in addition to a few of the healthy activities defined above. Hey! Wonder what's on TV? Look!' You've got the remote, although a real man would have had the remote all along. And you can break wind for as long and as loud as you like. Isn't life grand? Of course life is grand! It's great to be alive! Just keep telling yourself that. Ifyou were an awesome writer, but had to move on with your life and abandon your column for The Real World, she wouldn't dream of continuing it with someone else! You are irreplaceable! She knows that! One fine day, you'll show her! Of course, you will have forgotten all about it by then.

At least I'll get a jump of a week or so on everyone else who will be doing it in the coming weeks. Here we go. Top 10 Movies of the Year Goldeneye: Bond is back, and he's still fun in the PC 90's. " Karen Diehl Breaking up sucks. Whether you're the one doing the breakfng or the one, er, being broken, It s rarely a pleasant expenence. Like a root canal. Or finals week. Or a pelvic exam. Eew. One ofthe funny things about ending a relationship is that the responsibility for the break-up always falls into the hands of the person who brings it up first. I don't care how nice the ending was, there's always a "dumper" and a "dum pee." "It was a mutual decision" is just a nice way of saying, "He dumped me before I had a chance to dump him." And people know this! Have you ever said, "It was mutual," to someone? Do you know what their first response is? Something like, "Oh ... so, are you okay with it? Is he okay with it? Who started it?" They want to know who got dumped! Although I personally don't have a whole lot of experience in this category, being the "dumper" can't be much fun. Let's face it, at least 90% of the time when a relationship ends, one of the 2 parties involved isn't happy about it. So, if you're the "dumper", you're pretty much taking someone else's emotional state into your own hands - and then squishing it. Yeah, that'd make me feel like turning cartwheels. Being the "dum pee" isn't any picnic, either. If you're at the receiving end of a break-up, thin, but it still works.

Desperado: Not quite as good as its low budget prequel, El Mariachi, but tons of fun with Antonio Banderas. Mallrats: Another sequel that doesn't quite live upto the cult status of the original, but stays amusing with its humor for Generation X. The Professional: An action movie with a twisted moral sense and an unusual tale offamily values. Kids: A much too true portrayal of today's youth. Frighteningly real. Casper: Manages to be a family movie without getting too sweet. In fact it's a lot less saccharine than the cartoons it came from. Top 10 Worst Things in the Movies of 1995 The next Jurassic Park: Isn't it about time to stop' making a film out of everything that Michael you're sort of helpless, and no likes feeling helpless. Thereis one cool thing about being dumped, though. You get better it each time it happens to you. For example, you learn all the sneaky break-up lines. Anmve "dum pee" might understand thl implications of "I'm leaving you. or "It's over," or even, "Let'stry' being friends - you know, see other people." However, it tak~ a person trained in The Art of Being Dumped to recogoize, 'VI want different things out of ths relationship," or "I can't answer all your questions, so maybe I'm not what you need," or the sly, "We need to slow down."

The Quilt began in a San Francisco neighborhood as a memorial to the more than 1,000 San Franciscans who died of AIDS between 1980 and 1987. Word of the Quilt quickly spread and thousands more panels were added. The Quilt now contains over 31,000 panels and would cover 13 football fields. All 50 states and 38 other countries have contributed panels. Panel materials are very diverse, including everything from jock straps, condoms. and feather boas to Barbie doll" stuffed animals, and wedding rings. Regardless of the materials or number of panels, the goals ofthe Quilt remain the same: to preserve the memory of those who have died as a result of AIDS, to increase awareness of AIDS and HIV prevention, and to increase support for those living with AIDS and HIV. Marcy Cayo, Program Manager of Parkside's Health and Counseling Services, was instrumental in bringing the panels to Parkside. Cayo said of the Quilt: "Some of the panels, you don't know what they mean. Some are very vague. Some are very clear. You think, 'Gosh, this is what he was about.'" In order to get the panels for this week's commemoration of World AIDS Day the panels had to be reserved a year in advance. The university had to pay a small fee ($250 - $300) and had to guarantee the security of the panels. Itis hoped that the Quilt will raise awareness of AIDS here at Parkside and in Southeastern Wisconsin. According to a survey published in the October 1995 Wisconsin AIDS / HIV Update, there were 227 cases of AIDS or HIV infection reported in Kenosha County and 237 cases reported in Racine County between 1982 and Sept. 30, 1995. Anyone interested in confidential and anonymous testing should contact the Kenosha Health Dept. (653-6950) or the Racine Health Dept. (636-9498) or, for more information, contact the Southeast Wisconsin AIDS Project at 657-6644 or 1-800· 924-6601.

Keanu Less Than Memorable as Johnny • TY Wilda In the future, according to the cyberpunk author William Gibson, evil COrporations rule the earth with an eye only on the profit margin, the Yakuza roam the streets killing Without restriction, epidemics that make AIDS look harmless abound and hard wired heads are as common as color TVs. In the future according to Johnny Mnemonic, all of these elements are incapable of combining to create an interesting movie. The movie concerns an information courier known only as Johnny (Keanu Reeves). In his head is stored the cure for a neurological disease of the future that is dropping the citizenry like flies. The only problem is, he can't get it out and everyone wants it. Reeves wanders through this role listlessly, barking out monotone lines as he runs from everyone who wants his info. It's really a shame that he can't be killed without losing the data, because after about the first 20 minutes of the film you wish that someone would put him and us out of our misery. He faces off against an endless supply of Japanese killers whose characterizations are slightly less deep than the Japanese bad guys of a World War II propaganda film. Along the way he meets with friends IceT and Henry Rollins, rock and rap stars turned actors in charge of the stereotypical friendly underground/rebellion. Ice T plays the same function here as he did in Tank Girl, the mistrusting, tough talking rebel leader who will eventually save the day. Rollins comes in as the brilliant doctor who's going to save the world with Johnny's data. Somehow both of these characters have more substance to them than Reeves' title character, which sums up one of the real problems with the movie, everyone else is just bouncing around Johnny, waiting for him to get attacked by the enemy so they can save his life yet again, but all of them are able to care for him a lot more than he can make the audience care. Johnny Mnemonic is big on effects and flash. It features a dystopian futureworld that rivals the beauty and technology shown in Blade Runrter. There are cyberspace scenes using state of the art computer graphics that are visually stunning and captivating. It's lacking in emotional appeal. There is just nothing here to make you care what happens next. Gibson's original story that the film was based on was only a short story and the padding necessary to make it into a two hour movie shows. Long on action and effects and short on story and character, Johnny Mnemonic fails to pull the viewer in. • Sy Stevens A small group of the Parkside women's cross country team arrived back home this past monday from running the 1995 United States Cross Country Championships, which took place at Franklin Park in the city where Cheers was born. The race consisted of two races, the Senior Nationals which was a 6K (3.7 miles) open race, and the Junior Nationals which was 5K (3.1 miles) for women 19 years of age and under. The top six runners of the senior race hurdle themselves to the World Cup Championships which will be held in March of 1996. The winner of tire Senior Nationals, which was comprised of 238 runners, was Joan Nesbit from the Boston area with a course record time of 19:02. This time broke the preexisting record which belonged to Lynn Jennings by 30 seconds. The second place runner was Kate ~oJ!!,-eJ1. with a time of 19:32, and the third place runner was Lynn Jennings, and the seven time U.S. Nationals winner and the three times World Cup winner, with a time of 19:35.

They are in good shape coming out of last weekend's tournament with two champions. There were 16 schools represented and 224 wrestlers packed into Parkside's PhyEd building on Saturday. Roger Spear won the 118 lb division. He had four wins and no losses for the day. All of Rogers wins were by major decision or match termination, where he beat his opponent by 15 points or more. Jeremie Ott dominated his opponents winning the 177 lb weight class. He won his first match ofthe day with a pin and finished with one of the most exciting matches and a come from behind victory. At 158 pounds, Boone Smith took second at the tournament losing the championship round by a tie breaker. Senior, Myles Muckerheide placed third in the 167 lb weight class. Out of the 224 competitors, Myles was picked by coaches and referees for the Ray Larson Sportsmanship Award. Myles also beat Mike Schneider of Marquette who had pinned four opponents earlier that day. Myles Muckerheide Parkside had three ofthe top six in the 134 lb weight class. They included Freshman Brad Shefchik who took fourth, Trevor Hasenjager (last years NAJA National Champion at 118 lbs) and Shawn Maye, alsoa freshman, who tied with Trevor for fifth. Freshman Andy Tubbs placed fifth in the 190 lb weight class. Brett Stubblefield and Todd Raymond both took sixth in the 158 lb and heavyweight respectively. This week Parkside has three tough dual meets. The schedule this season will be tougher that previous years but Coach Koch is optimistic, "We have some outstanding freshman that have contributed to the team and we are relatively healthy." This season Koch hopes to have three or four All-Americans and that is definitely not out of reach for the wrestlers.

When this concept" is mentioned in church it usually refers to money, but it means much more than that. If you have many blessings, be them money, education, the love and enjoyment of a stable family life, or a stable and lucrative occupation, you also have a' commensurate responsibility that accompanies them. Society seems to be missing this point. Once upon a time, part of the so-called American Myth was the concept of responsibility for community good. This is where the Rush Limbaughs and the Newt Gingriches of the world err. Rush is eternally asking on his show, "Why should people who "have" pay for those who "have not?" The answer, my corpulent one, is that this nation does not (or at least, didn't used to) aspire to emulate the conditions that Charles Dickens found so repugnant 170 years ago. One hundred years ago, Social Darwinism defended the rampant and One Liberal's Opinion "Barb Churchill Ranger columnist CJ's column this week talks of people who have failed to use their immense wealth and talent to help those of us that are less fortunate, and exhorts those of us at Parkside to use our education wisely, and not just for our personal gain. As far as it goes, I am in complete agreement. But, his column does not go far enough. Social Darwinism has reared its ugly head again here in Wisconsin. No better explanation of this is required than the new "Wisconsin Works," or W-2 program that will be replacing Welfare as of Jan. 1, 1996. This program fails to take into account education OR people with serious illness, and puts everyone into the same category. This is just plain wrong. Now, if everyone in the world could work, they should. And, most do. Itis demeaning for an adult to take Welfare or SSI money when they could be working and earning their OWN way. And, yes, there are some deadbeats out there that could and SHOULD be working, but they don't. However, punishing everyone for the sins of a few is inexcusable. What good 01' lovable Tommy Thompson (the honorable one himself) has failed to take into account is that some people (temporarily or permanently) simply CANNOT work. Those people include cancer patients (pretty hard to work while taking chemo or radiation), the elderly (you mean that my eighty-seven year old grandma would HAVE to work if she didn't have her savings and her house?), the very young, and students. Yes, students! The current proposal for W-2 would force some of our lowincome Parkside students to work rather than go to school and improve themselves. They might be forced to take minimum or sub-minimum wage jobs (yes, W-2 provides for this too) rather than continuing in their efforts to build a better life. And, last of all, W-2 would hurt the very young by denying their mothers AFDC benefits. After two years on Welfare, AFDC benefits (even if there are young children in the house) will be cut off, regardless of how hard the people are trying or how severe the need. Whoever thought this program up needs his head examined. This program will cause more pain than any other in existence. Even rationed health care (coming soon, due to Medicare and Medicaid cutbacks) is. not as big a threat as this W-2. And it is built squarely on Social Darwinist principles-the survival of the fittest, and (more importantly) the survival of the RICHEST. Right now, the city of Racine is reeling. We have the highest crime rate in the state, a Senator that should and will be recalled (due to the fact that he does not feel the need to listen to his constituents), federal and state cutbacks, a new county sales tax that we don't want or need, and now this new W-2 program. The mind reels. The problem is that the state's priorities are seriously screwed up. Rather than helpmg the workmg poor with tax breaks, help with further education, and with new programs designed to help those most in need, they shaft us. Again and again and again. We almost need a miracle in order to get out from under. And that is not what America is all about. During this Christmas season, do your best to help those less fortunate, and pressure your legislators to help the lower and lowermiddle classes. It's time to "take back" our country from over-paid lobbyists and nonlistening representatives. If we raise our voices, we can not and WILL not be held down forever. Remember, God helps those who help themselves, and right now we need a peaceful revolution to get our country working again. .irresponsible capitalism the day by arguing that God allowed the rich to become richer because they were more fit as people. Unfortunately, Social Darwinism continues to rear its ugly head Although God (in all probability) DID allow some measure of wealth to be accumulated, God also thought that some measure of responsibility for using that wealth for the betterment of human kind should go without saying. No .._'~; better representation of this was Andrew Carnegie. He amassed enormous wealth, yet founded schools and libraries that continue to help everyone in Pennsylvania.

He's ... the American President. Do they have a realistic chance at having a meaningful relationship with the leeches from the media following their every move during an election year? Director Rob Reiner suggests in his engaging movie The American President that they have a great chance. Andy loves Sydney. But the romance isn't that simple. As a widowed President (Michael Douglas), Andy Shepard's been able to avoid all character attacks from his rivals because it's not smart politics to go on the offensive against a widower. When the lonely widower begins to date a former political activist and present-day adversary of politicians (Annette Bening), President Shepard's chief rival Bob Rumson (Richard Dreyfuss) goes on the attack. The result is a media circus with Rumson as the ringmaster. The film is a resounding success, as a romantic comedy and as a look at American politics. You don't have to take a 400-level PoliSci class to understand the political complexities involved in the film, but it's not at the third-grade level either. Reiner reaches an intelligent, happy medium. Romantically, Reiner tries to make a Capra-esque love story. Sydney is completely intimidated by the White House scene at first. While Andy acknowledges that he "has the best home court advantage in the world," he refuses to take the relationship slowly. They dive in, and to Reiner's credit, end up as a fantastic couple. As the public begins to question the President's "family values" because of his affair, opinion polls show the President is in a free-fall, plummeting from a 63% approval rating to 41% in seventy days. But Andy understands that he's guilty only of falling in love. He refuses to fight the bully Rumson on the character issue in the press. He has no comment about Sydney to the bloodhounds who follow his every move. The main focus of The American President is the question "what real right does the public have in regards to the private life of a political figure?" This topic is entirely relevant in today's tele-crazed society (just ask Bill Clinton or onetime presidential contender Gary Hart). President Shepard reacts with a "no comment." He feels that any comment would lend credibility to his rivals' seedy claims and end up working against him. When his approval rating hits an embarrassing 41% though, he is forced into action. The result is retribution, politically and, after Sydney begins to feel the strain of the relationship, romantically. The American President also does an excellent job of showing us the merry-goround and fantasyland that is the Presidency. When Sydney spends the night at the White House, panic ensues among the President's staff and their intimacy is interrupted by the revolving door of nervous advisors. There are several sparkling performances in the film. While there is already Oscar-talk about Douglas's great performance as the title character, I believe Bening deserves. equal praise. Bening is completely giddy, yet strong. As a lobbyist she is intelligent. As a loveinterest she is striking. Bening is helped by the fact that the movie is as much hers as it is Douglas's; Reiner portrays not only the President's struggles with an unrelenting media, but he also shows Sydney's downsides, both privately and professionally. MichaelJ. Fox, who's been playing the same character for the last ten years, breaks out of his slump with a superb performance as President Shepard's antsy Domestic Policy Advisor. Martin Sheen also gives a winning portrayal as Shepard's Chief of Staff and best friend. But the performance that everyone will talk about is Douglas's. Douglas is splendid in the very difficult role. He comes across as a decent guy who just wants to return to the time when the President was given the benefit of the doubt in his private life. Unfortunately for him that time is long past. Douglas also does a good job of showing his funny side (before going to bed with Sydney for the first time, he reminds her that "the most powerful man in the world" is only a political term). The performance is wellrounded and worthy of all the acclaim it will receive. When was the last successful romantic comedy! intriguing political film? .. It's been a long, long time. Director Rob Reiner's The American President is quite an accomplishment, and quite a film. Christmas Music • Barb Churchill Ranger Curmudgeon Christmas music everywhere, and 'not a drop to drink.' Yes, folks, the overabundance of Christmas music is driving me nuts. As of this writing, there is still over twenty days to Christmas, and yet you'd think it was going to be tomorrow by all the Christmas music in the stores and on the radio stations. Even Muzak (elevator music) has gotten into the act, playing one Christmas song (like the ever-popular" Jingle Bells) over and over and OVER again until you're sick of it. Then they playa Muzak standard such as Barbra Streisand's "Wet." It's enough to make me hurl! At the malls, they have (unfortunately for us consumers) picked up on this Muzak trend, and feature thousands of different versions of "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow," "Jingle Bells," the "Christmas Song" (otherwise known as "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire."), and of course "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer." Better titles for the above records (after you've heard them one too many times) are "Let it Snow so you can get into a car accident and die," "Jingle Bell Hell," "Fire-roasting your chestnuts over Christmas Day while watching the Packers beat the Bears," and "Rudolph lords it over the other inferior reindeer." A few songs like "I am Santa Claus," by Black Sabbath are appropriate Christmas type tunes, but the others can "take a long walk off a short pier" as far as I'm concerned. So, what can you do about this Christmas song invasion! Refuse to hum, sing, or otherwise participate in Christmassong singing until the week of Christmas. If you are into alternative music, get out all your favorite albums and sing to them. One older song that I like singing to after listening to Christmas songs all day at work is "Man in the Wilderness" by Styx. And, of course, there is always my favorite song, "Dirt," that I can sing along with that immediately washes the bad taste out of my mouth. "Oh, you are so special. You have the talent, to make me feel like dirt. Oh, you use your talent, to fake me under, and cover me with dirt." This song always helps to remove Christmastype propaganda from my brain. So, do whatever you like to do to drive these mindless, boring, and pretentious Christmas songs from your life. It'll do you some good to remind yourself of the tedium, mediocrity, and futility of daily life after listening to sickly-sweet Christmas songs EVERYWHERE YOU GO. "~~P,'P1~ ~.Q1- ss etu.-I" Top Ten goes on, from p.2 ruin next year? Big time soundtrack albums: It's apparently not enough for the movie business to get your ticket price, now they want you to buy the CD too. The problem is, does anyone remember extensive use of any of the songs from the Batman Forever or Johnny Mnemonic soundtracks in the movies? Junior: Did the world really need yet another pregnant man movie? Especially one featuring Schwarzenegger? Thomany damn kid movies: It wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the merchandising. Was there anything imaginable that you could buy this past summer without a picture of Pocahontas on it? Quentin Tarantino: I'm one of his biggest fans actually, but he is really beginning to be overused and overrated. The Net: The information superhighway is the newest bad movie device to come into vogue. I wish my E-Mail was as coolas the system in Disclosure or that it was easy to get rid of someone using it as it was to get rid of Sandra Bullock in The Net. Comedy sketches as movies: Stuart Saves His Family? The Jerky Boys? The fine work of Adam Sandler? C'mon people, is it really that hard to come up with an entertaining idea? • Threats of government intervention: Big government thinks that the movie industry is what is eroding today's society and destroying family values. So the movie makers promised they'd be good and work on the problem. Yeah right. As long as we keep shelling out the dollars for sex and violence, they'll keep giving that to us. At least Showgirls bombed. The best movie of 1995: Was there anything out there that didn't claim to be that? If not the best, than at least the most heart-warming, most thrilling or the most action packed. Spare us the hyperbole guys. So, that was 1995 in the theater. What can we expect in '96? More ofthe same of course.

The concert will be Saturday, Dec. 9 at 2 p.m. in Parkside's Communication Arts Theatre. The performance was created by Patrick McGuire, a UW-Parkside professor. "The Parkside Chorale" and "The Voices of Parkside" will be featured under the direction of James Kinchen. Also featured SUFAC, cont from p, I the future. Music Department's request for an increase that would nearly double their budget was considered inappropriate at this time and it was voted to give them no increase at all. The largest increases were requested by BSU, Latinos Unidos and the AthleticlIntramurals Department. ·BSU and LU asked for money to pay their officers and to increase community and on-campus programming. These increases would have doubled the budgets for each ofthe organizations. While SUFAC felt the efforts of both groups were worthwhile, they also felt that this was not a good time to ask for such large increases. A compromise was made of giving a 25% increase to each group. The AthleticslIntramurals Dept. asked for an increase of $80,000. This increase would have meant a rise in tuition of $22 per full time student per semester. Linda Draft, chair of the department, explained the request as an increase of the costs of the department due to participating in the GLVC athletic conference and a need to purchase an additional van for team transportation. SUFAC members felt that the department should have to raise some ofthis money . on their own and not place the whole burden on the students. In a hotly debated vote of 6 for and 2 against, the committee authorized an increase of $20,000. The two members who voted against the measure felt that even this increase was too much. SUFAC will hear any appeals on its decisions on Dec 6th. Expected to appeal are the Athletics Department and the Union Rec Center. The final recommendations ofthe committee will be presented to PSGA for approval on Dec 8th. If they are approved there, they will go before the Chancellor for final approval. As the budget currently stands, there will be an increase in segregated fees of approximately 2% in the 96-97 school year. will be the Parkside Classical Guitar Ensemble, directed by George Lindquist.

AI; a political science professor and Public Service Internship Program (PSIP) coordinator he has launched intern positions with local agencies, extend- ing from Chicago to Milwaukee. The program, which is not exclusive to political science majors, places Parkside stu- dents in positions such as with a Cook County judge or Channel 2 reporter in Chicago, the office of U.S. Congressman Mark Neumann, the Milwaukee offices of U.S. Senators Russell Feingold and Herb Kohl, or southeastern Wisconsin newspapers like Kenosha News, Racine Journal Times, or The Milwaukee Journal . Interns are also available through local district attorneys' offices and Kenosha and Racine police ·departments. Geared towards juniors and seniors, interested stu- dents should fill out an application in Molinaro 367 not less than six weeks before the beginning of the semester that the internship will occur. - At least a C+ average is needed and the applicant must not be on academic pro- bation. Placement is figured through an interview process at various agencies; some placements will require a course in political science. Though up to 12 credits can be earned, 3 to 6 credit hours is normal, depending on how many hours worked. Most of the intern positions are unpaid, and the paid ones are usually in the sum- mer months. The PSIP program has a two-fold purpose. Students are getting jobs as a result of the internship and are "edu- cating some of these agencies about students," said Pernacciaro. In some cases, interns have been awarded scholar- ships to law schools and grad schools from their internship site. "You're getting practical experience, picking up skills and getting recommenda- tions," said Pernacciaro. II Ex staff member attacks Education Dean Shade ing has been done" about Shade, stating that the administration has ignored . complaints about her. Regarding the whistler- blower complaint, Waller indicated that there are "money damages" involved and said, "I wonder how much they can afford to be awful." Beth Adelson, a former Parkside Education student , stated, "Personally dealing with Dr. Shade ...I never had any problems. "I'm disturbed and con- cerned by the loss of so many wonderful professors ...there are great professors who are now gone. And I wonder why these good 'teachers are leav- ing," Adelson said. Adelson also spoke about the decision not to send stu- dent teachers to rural Kenosha and Racine schools "They talk about diversity, ' but they're only sending stu- dents to one kind of school." "Some of my best experi- ences were in schools with only ten percent minority," Adelson said. "I believe students that are going to be teachers ...need to see multiple types," said Gale Ryczek, Superintendent ofthe Bristol Consolidated School district. Ryczek indi- cated that he had been told by Shade that their schools were not "multi culturally diverse" and student teach- ers would no longer be placed there. "Our culture is diverse," Ryczek said, "we have kids that speak a number of dif- ferent languages in their homes." Despite the placement decision, Ryczek states that Shade "called and wanted to know why I hadn:t contacted, her." Otherwise, Ryczek said, "My dealings with them (Education Department) have been fantastic." Some current Education Department students have stated their dissatisfaction with Shade, but asked not to be interviewed. Many expressed fear that speaking against Shade would lead to retaliation and possible expulsion from the Teacher Education Program . A male student who pre- ferred not to be identified , described meeting with Shade in an impromptu meeting. "She threw a curve ball at me," he said. He states that he was informed his GPA was not adequate for the program and that complaints had been filed against him. The student then reported checking his record to find that it was clean and that his GPA was "in good shape," he said. The matter is cur- rently pending consideration with Vice Chancellor Ostheimer and the student is considering seeking legal counsel. "Dean Shade basically does whatever she wants to do...there is no collaboration there is no democracy and ' that's how I felt when I was there," Adelson said. A phone message was left for Shade requesting an interview, but no reply has been received.

"An internship is a transi- tion from student to career, and from part-time work into full-time professional position," Roger Hudson, business internship coordi- nator said. If the process is not done through Parkside, it is classified as an informal internship. Parkside's School of Business offers qualified business students internship opportunities. To be eligible a student must be a declared business major and have completed at least 75 credit hours of course work with a minimum GPA of 2.5 prior to the beginning of the internship. If these requirements are met, an internship coordina- tor begins matching stu- dents with employers. The coordinator will also make sure that the employer is giving evaluations on the Ranger Editor-in-Ghief , Business Manager Ente . ent Editor t F student's progress and that there is a specific project they are working on. "The most important aspect of an internship isto be able to work from begin. ning to end on a given pro. ject to acquire a sense of completion, as well as knowledge and responsibili. ty," Hudson explained. Interns should also make sure that there will be an evaluation done on their progress. By having a form evaluations done students can use the employer as a reference for upcoming jobs Internships goals are to take academic skills into a professional job environ- ment, work with individuals and teams, learn to make deadlines, and to meet the standards of the place of employment. Students are encouraged to check their major's department for possible openings. However, if noth- ing is of interest, they can begin a search on their own by checking newspaper ads Intimidation, because oflac of experience, is something' to overlook when contacting these employers.

"Some of my best experi- ences were in schools with only ten percent minority, " Adelson said. "I believe students that are goip.g to be teachers . .. ne ed to see multiple types," said Gale Ryczek , Superinte ndent of the Bristol Consolida ted School district. Ryczek indi- cated that he had been told by Shade that their schools were not "multicultura lly diverse" and student teach- ers would no longer be placed there . "Our culture is di ver se," Ryczek said, "we have kids that speak a number of dif- ferent languages in thei r homes." Despite the placemen t decision, Ryczek stat es that Shade "called and wan ted to know why I hadn 't cont acted her ." Otherwise , Ryczek said, "My dealings with them (Education Department ) have been fantastic ." Some current Educat ion Department students have stated their dissati sfaction with Shade, but asked not to be interviewed. Man y expressed fear that sp eaking against Shade would lead to retaliation and pos sibl e expulsion from the Teacher Education Progr am . A male stud e nt wh o pre- ferred not to be ident i fi ed ' described meeting with Shade in an impromptu meeting. "She threw a curve ball at me," he said. He states that he was in fo rmed his GPA was not ad equ ate for the program and th at complaints had bee n fi led against him . The student then rep orted checking his record to fin d that it was clean and th at his GPA was " in good shap e," he said. The matter is cur- rently pending considerat ion wi th Vice Chancellor Ostheimer and the stud en t is considering seek i ng legal counsel. "Dean Shade basically does whatever she wants to do . .. there is no collaboratio n there is no democracy and ' that's how I felt when I was there," Adelson said . A phone message was left for Shade requesting an interview, but no reply has been received . Internsh ips Clarify Career C hoices • Claire Schoor Guest Writer It is common for students to try and figure out how all of their classes tie together to help them prepare for their future and many may wonder how a class is rele- vant to their career. "An internship is a transi- tion from student to career, and from part-time work into full-time professional position," Roger Hudson, business internship coordi- nator said. If the process is not done through Parkside, it is classified as an informal internship. Parkside's School of Business offers qualified business students internship opportunities. To be eligible a student must be a declared business major and have completed at least 75 credit hours of course work with a minimum GPA of 2.5 prior to the begjnning of the internship. If these requirements are met, an internship coordina- tor begins matching stu- dents with employers. The coordinator will also make sure that the employer is giving evaluations on the st u dent' s progress and that there is a specific project they ar e working on. "T h e most important aspe ct of an internship is to b~ abl e to work from begin . mng t o end on a given pro- ject t o acquire a sense of com pl et ion , as well as know ledge and responsibiJi . ty," H udson explained. Inte rns should also make sure t h a t there will be an evaluati on done on their progres s . By having a form evaluat ions done students can u se the employer as a referen ce for upcoming jobs . In te rn ships goals are to take aca demic skills into a pr ofessi on al job environ- ment , wo rk with individuals and teams, learn to make dea d line s , and to meet the stan d ar ds of the place of emplo ym ent. Stu de nts are encouraged to check t heir major's departme nt for possible opening s . However, if noth- ing is of in t erest, they can begin a sea rch on their own by checki ng newspaper ads . Intimida tion , because oflac of experie nce , is something to overloo k when contacting these employers.

Parking Policies 'Faculty, staff, and students are reminded, as the winter season approaches, that overnight parking on University property becomes a major concern ofthe university Police and Public Safety Department for the following reasons. Parking lots are closed for parking between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m., all year long, for safety reasons. Anyone needing to park during those • hours must obtain permission from the University Police 'and Public Safety Department. Individuals failing to comply with this policy are subject to ticketing. With the approach of winter and the possibility of snow at any time, the overnight parking policy becomes even more critical to the safe and efficient operation of the campus. Vehicles parked overnight, without permission, are subject to ticketing, and in the event of a sufficient snow fall, are subject to towing. Vehicles parked overnight with permission will be contacted, and arrangements made to remove vehicles if possible. Parked vehicles, during snow emergencies, slow the progress of the Physical Plant employees who must plow the lots prior to the opening of school so that sufficient parking space is available. Plowing around parked vehicles takes additional time and normally takes additional parking spaces, which cannot be utilized by faculty, staff or students. Your cooperation in this matter will make the approaching winter season safe, and parking on University property, hassle free. Canale Earns reminds faculty, staff, and In addition, Chief Deane Award students that the new electronic meters in the Communications Arts lot are strictly for VISITORS, and all violators will be aggressively ticketed. Chronic violators (four or more unpaid citations) are subject to towing. Chief Deane states, "I'm sure that the University community will agree with me that installing two (2) hour VISITOR meters will benefit our campus. This change will make the University Wisconsin- 'Parkside more user-friendly to visitors, Prospective students, parents, and members of the Kenosha and Racine communities who may choose to attend the various social and academic functions hosted by the University. " •Marianne Sjoholm Guest Writer University of Wisconsin-Parkside freshman Sylvia Canale was awarded a Mayor's Youth Commission Award. Sylvia was one of sixteen selected because of her outstanding personal achievements and positive contribution to the community. Canale almost didn't make it to her own award ceremony. She received the letter from the Mayor's office and didn't open it until about four days before the event. Canale said when she did open the letter she was "surprised, really surprised." So surprised she didn't believe it. She called the Kenosha Public Information office to verify her nomination. The office acknowledged her award and asked if she was going to accept the invitation. Canale gladly accepted. Mayor John Antaramian presented the certificate and medallion at a Common Council meeting on October 16. The Youth Commission and the Mayor developed the award program to recognize the accomplishments and activities of the youth in the Black Student Union A Professional Club • Reggie Slaughter Guest Writer The University of Wisconsin-Parkside's Black Student Union has been working to change their image from being a social club to being a professional club. BSU is made up of more than 50 members, which is a dramatic increase compared to past years. This year, BSU plans on being more involved in the University as well as in the community. "We would like to do more programming than already planned for this year," stated Curtis Bickham, president of BSU, "but unfortunately, because of our budget restrictions, we cannot do all ofthe things we would like." BSU is practicing a dressup day the last Wednesday of every month. The purpose is to practice good dressing etiquette for white collar jobs and interviews. Dress-up day will also cause BSU to stand out in the public eye. Another important aspect that BSU wants to work on is its overall membership GPA. The club has written a scholarship proposal which will be sent to many local companies for donations. The plan is to have the scholarship up and running for Spring semester 1996. The scholarship will be awarded to BSU members that achieve a semester GPA of 2.5 or better. This scholarship should not only help students financially, but also encourage them to work harder. The club guarantees changes for the university as well as the community. BSU wants to be perceived as a club that takes care of business. "Life is like a business," said Damian Evans, BSU member. "In order to be successful, one must plan carefully and make the right decisions. " BSU has four committees to maximize their productivity. The Programming committee plans and organizes events. The Advertising committee promotes events. The Community Outreach committee sets up activities that involve volunteer work for BSU. The Fundraising committee raises the money that allows for BSU to continue all of their planned activities. Together, these four committees make the club more effective than otherwise. To offer support in any way, call Curtis Bickham or Reggie Slaughter (BSU Vice President) at 595-2731. , Share 'JourRanger with a friend ful'fu A change for Student Health Services • Kristine Hansen Staff Writer Next semester you might see Parkside students staggering across Wood Road in search of a remedy. You see, administration is proposing to move Student Health Services from Molinaro Hall to KR (KenoshalRacine MRI building). Counseling services and sexual assault programs would be forced to move, also. The move would require students and staff who are ill to walk across campus in the middle of winter for an aspirin or other non-prescriptive drug. Choosing to drive instead of walk is a problem also, as people don't want to lose parking places. Parkside has a large commuter population, so most can identify with this. Andrea Davis, chair of Disability Awareness Committee, is afraid the programs will flop if moved to KR. "To see all that is builtup, go down, is pretty sad," Davis said, referring to little usage of Student Health Services in the past. "We see it [the move] as a regression to what it used to be." "You see, you use. You don't see, you don't use," she attributes this idea to its current success in Molinaro Hall. Services for disabled students will also be forced to move across the street. Accessibility for persons in wheelchairs will be limited. "They're going to have to get a very large van to accommodate power chairs," said Davis. Disabled students requiring toilet assistance will just have to wait. "If you really wanted to use the bathroom, would you want to wait?" asks Davis. In the event of a medical emergency, particularly in . the dead of winter, response time will be significantly longer as the nurse must start the car and cross Wood Road to get to the center of campus. Dr. Grace's response is that the administration is not legally bound to provide that type of assistance. However a special asset of Parkside i~ that everything is under one roof. Why move these offices into inaccessibility? Vending machines with band-aids and aspirins could be made available to students, but would of course require spare change. Davis asks,"Why haven't students been approached?" She encourages students to write letters to Grace, letting him know you want to work with him on an alternate solution. "He cau't respond to students if they don't speak up," concludes Davis. Some solutions are having students pay an extra $5.00 each semester on their tuition, or moving Admissions, which caters to off-campus visitors, to KR. "Please, we want to do something. What can we do to work together?" Davis . says to Grace and students. So if you don't want to walk through the snow for an aspirin this winter, write to Grace. PSGA InTouch with U.S. Congressman Neumann • Kristine Hansen Staff Writer Two staff representatives from U.S. Congressman Mark Neumann's office spoke at last Friday's PSGA meeting. Tom Richie, PSGA president, invited Robin Vos and Mark Retledge "for informative reasons." "There are a lot of misconceptions about what is happening to student financial aid. This gave students the opportunity to ask questions, directly to the people who are responsible, and also an opportunity to clear up any misconceptions," said Richie. Mark Retledge opened up his talk commenting on PSGA's STOP sign in their office window, asking students to stop in and call their representatives about Congress' measures to cut student financial aid. · The 6 month grace period on student loans will not change; college graduates will have to pay the interest that accumulates during this period. This will cost an average of $9 per month and saves $3.5 billion. There will be a 50% increase in amounts available for student loans. 1995 yields $24 billion while 2002 predicts $36 billion. This is even taking into consideration the annual 5-6% college inflation on average. No dollar-wise cuts will occur in most of the financial aid programs, except for an increased $4 per month for the life of a Stafford loan. Any misconceptions on financial aid "cuts" come from failed measures to raise tuition. Retledge gave the example of Washington wanting to raise tuition, but then a university makes it less. "That's where the cut is," Retledge explains. One PSGA member commented on the behalf of all students that "We're trying to better ourselves, yet we're putting ourselves deeper in debt." The representatives' response is that students are being loaned money generously for 4 years and are given an additional 6 months before starting loan payments. Other business included plans for a United Council meeting at UW-Stout on November 11 and 12 in which five Parkside students will be attending. The main topic of discussion and debate will be a change in student segregated fees; currently 75 cents per student. The proposal is for 90 cents per student. Resolution 95-23, a proposal stating that PSGA nominations have to accept or decline before an election can take place, was read and accepted. A nominee must be either at the meeting or give a written and signed acceptance letter to a member of the Executive Branch. At Friday's meeting, 3 new senators were sworn in: Karen Diehl, Chastity Washington, and Steve Zieman, adding more power to student government at Parkside. were blown away, we all realized, if you think about it, 99.5% of all men have committed sexual assault in some way," stated Mateo Mackbee. The group is currently in the process of creating a curriculum for the college and high school levels and in the future they wish to move it into the elementary level. The men will learn about violence and women, violence on television and violence in video games. The men will then go out armed with the knowledge they gained in a 3-4 person group and educate about violence. To learn more about the program please contact the Peer Health Educators at 595-2365. M.A.v.E.R.A.K.S. ·Jeanne M. Sanchez Staff Writer Have you ever seen a speaker that made you want to get out there and do something good? One group of men saw a speaker and saw that something need to be done. M.A.V.E.R.A.K.S., Men Against Violence Educating Racine and Kenosha Students formed by the men of the Peer Health Educators. The group formally started after a Residence Hall Association meeting. The Peer Health Educators meeting speaker was Edward Antaramian, Assistant City Attorney. The topic of discussion was sexual assault and rape. "We all IVCF Conference Held • Kristine Hansen Staff Writer Wisconsin Inter Varsity Fall Conference was held October 27-29, at Camp Wonderland. Four students from UW-Parkside's InterYarsity Christian Fellowship Chapter convened with InterVarsity members from other colleges and universities to address critical issues ofthe Christian life. Titled, "Cross Training", each conference participant chose from 7 tracks to follow. Inter Varsity staff, staff volunteers and resource people led the tracks with titles like "Choices: Tried, Tested, and True", "The Joy of Following Jesus", "The Joy of Bible Discovery", "The Joy of Growing Together", "Leadership Congress", "Twentysomething" and "Creative Evangelism." Ryan Silich, a Parkside sophomore, chose "The Joy of Following Jesus" track, designed to teach what it means for Christ to be first in your life, how to develop disciplines that nurture this relationship with Christ, and how to begin reaching out to others. After studying Luke 5 and the type of disciples God chose, Silich stated,"We're not God [and] we can't see whose hearts will be changed and those who will not." Silich noted that God chose disciples from several myriads. "The Joy of Growing Together" track studied 2 Timothy and how to assist peers in a growing and fruitful relationship with Christ. "I learned the only things eternal are the word of God and [His] people," Joe Herron, a Parkside student said. At Parkside, Herron is responsible for leading the InterVarsity's "large group" worship every Wednesday. "God has a plan for everyone's life," said Holly Roberson, Parkside's InterYarsity's Women's Discipleship leader .. Roberson's track focused on Abraham's faith and trust in God and studied the book of Genesis. Currently Roberson is heading Becoming a Woman of Excellence, a women's Bible study on campus. The "Leadership Congress' track took two representatives from each campusIthe chapter president and/or another delegate) to discuss and collaborate on Christian leadership in each InterVarsity chapter. Ann Larabee represented Parkside and showing gutsy leadership said,"If we're not praying, and asking God to work, [then] nothing will happen." This year Larabee has two leadership positions in Parkside's InterVarsity: Treasurer and Party Coordinator. InterVarsity meets Wednesdays at noon in Molinaro 107. Small Bible studies are also available throughout the week. aren't there for soul-searching drama now, are you? So this is the part where we explore the suburban culture of the mall, right? No, this is the part where Brody and T.S. act like stupid guys and bitch about being . dumped while doing nothing about it. Well, at least until the point where Brody corners his girl in an elevator intending to get her back, but instead gets laid. That's just the way things happen in this movie. Eventually, something like a plot develops. It involves a goofy dating-game show being held in the mall. The guys decide to hijack it to get their girls back. Happy-type ending, here we come. So why go see Mal/rats? A Kevin Smith Double Feature Film & Video Review Mal/rats/Clerks Bob and Jay (we'll get back to them later). Mal/rats begins with a double dumping. First, T.S.'s girlfriend dumps him for being just like her dad, except that he has no ambition. Then Brody gets dumped crudely for being a comic book-crazed, Segaplaying geek with no ambition (He is, of course, playing Sega while she dumps him). Solution to their problem?- hit the mall. What ensues is, of course; silly and pointless, but if you're in the theater, you • Ty Wilda & Angela Woosley So what is Mal/rats? Another angst-ridden story of Generation X-type things that dwells on how aimless and hopeless today's youth are? A goofy, comedy-type thing filled with zany teenage antics? A beautiful story of teen romance where the good guy gets the girl after realizing what a jerk he is? Basically, it's a little of all of the above, which is a lot more fun than it sounds. Besides that, it has Silent Because it's fun. It has slackers acting stupid and having pointless and silly conversations about Superman's sex life. But most importantly it has Silent Bob and Jay, who absolutely steal the movie. Their half-assed plots to ruin the game show and help their friends involve several crashes through dressing rooms and about a half-- ounce of pot. Not to mention Silent Bob's constant attempts to master Jedi mind powers throughout the movie. (He just saw Return of the Jedi last week, you see, and ....) Kevin Smith has fun with Generation X stereotypes in this movie which recreates all the fun of the Brat Pack movies of the '80's without the angst. Mal/rats gives him a chance to do every. thing in a movie he has always wanted to in the sPan of an hour and a half or so including a cameo by comi; book writer Stan Lee, don. ning Bat gear and swinging through a mall, displayinga three-nippled woman and showing up mall security as the rent-a-cop wannabes they are. Clerks, now available on video, was Kevin's debut as a filmmaker. Shot in black and white film on a minimal number of locations (mostly the interior of a convenience store), it is an example of how much can be done on a shoestring budget. Like cont. page 8... He Said, She Said... The Hair and Now •Michael T. Zurad Humble Servant This is going to sound like a double standard, but the one feature that all men secretly pray that women overlook when they look at guys is one ofthe things that first catches a man's eye on a woman. That feature is hair. It sounds so shallow. In all honesty we'd rather spend time with someone we get along with than some cranky bitch with awesome hair. But the way human nature is set up, people generally look at other people's heads first. Hair usually occupies more than 50% of a woman's head, so it is kind of tough to not notice her hair. Unless she's got a great butt. That will easily eclipse hair, But I digress. Women almost always have better hair than men. This is due to several reasons. First, women almost always have more hair than men. This is an unfair advantage. Most men can't grow their hair long unless they pursue unrewarding careers involving manual labor, engineering, or the custodial arts. And who is to say that those who do can even grow hair? Women spend a disproportionate amount of time taking care of their hair. Women actually think about their hair-much more than men. Women will spend hours pondering about what they're going to do with their hair: what color hair, what color thingie to put in the hair, do the shoes match the color of the thingie in the hair, what about these hats, is the hair too long, is the hair too short, is it too frizzy, is the hair damaged? Men generally ask two flavors of questions, if they ever ask at all, and those are: "Should I wash my hair before I pick her up?" and "How come the only hair that isn't falling out are the gray ones?" The average woman spends approximately seven times the gross national product' of Costa Rica on hair care products every month. These include various derivatives of mousse and hair spray that, for the most part, cancel each other out. They have to use some acid-based shampoo to disintegrate that crap from their hair. Then they have to use some kind of delicate shampoo because they wash their hair too much. The average guy washes his hair with a bar of Lava. Ifhe feels like splurging, he'll pick up a bottle of Pert. Women, after spending enough time in front of the mirror to plant, raise, and harvest a modestly sized apple orchard, check themselves in the mirror, on average, 387 times more frequently than men. Unless he is Italian. Then the ratio is about one to one. There's some kind of Italian frequent comber miles program they've got going. So hair is yet another battle that men are winning because we spend less time, we spend less money, and we don't have to look at ourselves all day. We get to look at women with great heads of hair. Assuming it's her head we're looking at. • Karen M. Diehl Managing Editor Hair. Biologically, it's just a few thousand strands of waste proteins excreted from follicles in your skin. It serves the very utilitarian purpose of keeping our ears warm in the wintertime, and it's even useful for flossing when you're standing at a Kansas concert with corn stuck between your teeth. Hair can be a religious . symbol, a political statement, and most importantly a sign of individual style and fashion. There can be little argument that when it comes to first impressions, hair will almost always factor into the equation. I don't know of a single woman who doesn't look at a prospective date and think, "Ooh! Cool highlights ..." or, "Neat eyes, but lose the sideburns ..." or, "Eew. Balding is okay, but that 'hair flap' combed over the top has GOT to go." Personally, I find that a person's hair speaks to me on more than an aesthetic level. I find that I'm often not attracted by the hair itself, but rather by the attitude it projects. Hair, believe it or not, is also an effective media for communication. Women - and some men, I suppose - speak very adequately through their hair styles. Depending on mood and personality, these people can create a style that yells, "You DON'T want to mess with me ...J" or says, "Hi. I'm feeling very blah today." Other "hair-conscious" people can pick up on these vibes and respond accordingly. The frustration in being a woman, of course, occurs when you run across a "hair oblivious" guy. Guys have a more extended opportunity to be "hair oblivious" because they can generally keep theirs short and simple without worry of the style it projects. Most guys have short, simple haircuts. Women, on the other hand, are - and historically always have been - nearly obligated to do something special or unusual with her locks. If she doesn't, she must not be very concerned about how she appears. Ifshe does too much, then she must be vain. It's somewhere in the hearts of most women to have that special guy acknowledge her fmesse at striking a balance between frivolous and frumpy. Hence, when encountering a "hair oblivious" guy, man) women may feel like they're running into a brick wall. Finally, it is important to note that whatever your style - dark, stubbly, thin, coarse, braided, curly, shiny, or even bald as a cueball - don't be too judgmental of someone else's "do". Hair is a very personal representation of our values, our cultures and our beliefs. And besides, who hasn't had a bad hair day .... Parkside Students Get Involved • Diane Scering Staff Writer "Involvement" is U.w. Parkside's new mission statement· and a group of Parkside ,tud:nts have been taking that mission very seriously, Several freshmen from Roseann Mason's Cross Cultural Reading and Writing class donated their time and energy on Saturday, October 21, doing just that. Their efforts turned a popular catch-phrase, "Think Globally, Act Locally,"into action, during the 5th Annual Work-a- Thon. The goal of the project was to help build a stronger local community, as well as offer support on a global capacity. The Work-a- Than was sponsored by C.A.S.C. (the Central American Solidarity Coalition), an organization designed to make a difference for families in Racine. EI Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Chiapas, Mexico. On the global level, the support donated by Parkside students as well as volunteers !'romPark High School went to elevate some of the need in several areas. Although the students did not meet their goal of 100 or more pledges, the money they did raise helped support a truck bound for Mexico carrying writing materials, medicine. hooks, etc. Locally, their work affected Habitat for Humanity, Youth Cultural reading and writing class Fair Chance, the George Bray Neighborhood Center, and Homeward Bound. They spent the day working on many projects throughout downtown Racine, including cleaning up a local homeless shelter and clearing out the old Zahn's building downtown, the future site of the Children's Imaginarium. I met with a dozen or so of the participants and informally chatted about their volunteer experience. Lisa. a Parkside freshman, declared proudly, "I used a sledge hammer and a crow bar .. .in a skirt!"

Dawn said the best part was "getting to know her classmates better." (One even claimed to have found O.J.'s glove.) To many of them, the job was just part of their class assignment; but to to others. it was an occasion to actually see what being in need really means and how being of service really feels. They all agreed that they would do it again. "on a better day...it was kinda hard, kinda cold." To have a goal or make a difference takes involvement.

This week's uolunteer in Mark Ulmen: Mark Ulman is a senior majoring in English with a concentration in writing. He learned about the program through a friend who had volunteered. Mark's interest has been . in special events that allows him to share his weekend hours with community needs. This fall, he has volunteered at the 1888 School House Open House for the Racine County Historical Museum, the Music Festival for SEWAP, Octoberfit and Halloween Havoc for Kenosha Youth Foundation, and the Chili Cookoff for Kenosha Kinship. "Volunteering has given me a chance to interact with others," said Mark. "I always feel good afterwards, knowing I helped someone." While volunteering at the music festival in Racine, a person attending the festival suggested Mark apply for a job with the training process. One Mark Ulmen never knows who they will meet while volunteering. Heather Them, Special Events Coordinator for the Parkside Volunteer Program Thinks Mark should be honored as Volunteer of the Week. "Mark is always willing to help with a variety of agencies. He is continuously coming in to see what new volunteer opportunities are available. Mark often volunteers for more than one shift. The agencies which he has helped have nothing but good things to say about him and are always eager for his return." Thanks, Mark, for spending your weekend hours helping the non-profit agencies serve the community. Math Club Answer • Jim Hendrickson Math Club Correspondent Last time. Babv Bear han announced he had found the word, to his parents' utter amazement. "Wow; gushed Mama Bear. "I'm amazed," said Papa Bear. "I didn't think you were all that bright." "Anyway, Goldilocks here gave us 6 words, PIE, INN, TIE, PET, PEN, TEE," continued Baby Bear, who wishes to be known as B.B. "She gave us each one letter. There were 5 letters she could have given us: E,I,N,~T." . "Yeah, yeah. Enough expoartion. Get on with it!" exclaimed an exasperated Mama Bear. "Well, she said none of us knew how many vowels there were," continued B.B. "None of us could have gotten an N, because the 2 words with N had only one vowel apiece. So, we were down to PIE, TIE, PET, and TEE." "Thank you," said B.B. "Next, Goldilocks told us none of us knew how many consonants there were. Well, if any of us had the letter I, we would know there was only one consonant in the word. That left PET and TEE." "So how did you know which it was?" asked Papa Bear. "She only gave us those clues." "Elementary," responded B.B. "I got the P, so the word is PET. If she had given me a T or an E like she gave you two, there's m way any intelligent ursine - much less a person - could have come up with the word. Either PET or TEE would have been viable. You two did not have the right letters to solve the riddle." "You are absolutely right, B.B.; said Goldilocks, with a sly smile. "Only you could have solved this riddle." "Aw,shucks," said B.B., blushing. "Now would you bears like to help m~ eat bread and wine I got from a lost little girl With a red cape?" asked Goldilocks. "Wouldwe ever!" said the bears, in unison.

Indianapolis is coming off a 2- 1 first round upset over firstseed Lewis in the conference tournament. Head coach Rick Kilps isn't taking the eighth seed lightly.

Each member is classified into different categories and are determined by a point system that make the game equal for beth parties. Players are separated into three classes of abilities. A Class 3 player is a person who has the most control over their bodies, a Class 2 athlete is half of the ability, and Class 1 is less. The age of players range from 15 to 45 years of age. • Derek Bishop Staff Writer Sports is defined by the athlete's ability to produce an effort toward a goal of desire. When the words "handicapped" and "disabled" are spoken, it is sometimes followed with the thoughts of a prejudice toward their abilities to produce in the world of sports. To redefine the thinking of impurity, and to prove the power of the human spirit can live on in each case that the almighty has given to the individual, the National Wheelchair Basketball Association was established to crusade for the cause of equality.

"Halfway through the season he realized, 'Oh my goodness, I've got to help this team," said Rosa. Only 29 points separated the Rangers from sixth place, which is exactly where the Rangers are supposed to be according to Rosa. In fact, Parkside's 5th, 6th, and 7th runners were in before 5th place Southern Indiana's same runners came in. Unfortunately, only the top five count in the scoring.

"It's a e Survives hysical Match in Playoffs Brian Borkowski In a game marred by dirty play, the University of Wisconsin-Parkside men's soccer team stood their ground and stayed within their game as they defeated Indianapolis 2-0 in the GLVC Tournament Semi-Final. Parkside (15-6) opened the scoring at 35;38 when Junior Midfielder David Siers booted in a crossball from Matt Sheahan. Late in the second half, Parkside had another scoring chance when Siers hit Senior Pat White with a through ball that left White one on one with Indianapolis goalkeeper. White knocked the baIl in to finish the scoring. The.physical play of Indianapolis led to their 19 fouls to Parkside's 13, and their yellow cards to Parkside's 1. "Today's game was one of the most brutal games I've ever been a part of. I'm extremely disappointed with the cheapness of Indianapolis and their lack Ailing Rangers Fall Final • In of sportsmanship," said Ranger head coach Rick Kilps. Indianapolis used a variety of defensive tactics to contain UW-P star Pat White. "Pat White was taken down every time he· touched the ball. When he was away from the ball, he was tripped. When an Indianapolis player got a yellow card for taking White down, they'd just send in another guy off the bench to use the same tactics on Pat," added Kilps In the brutal contest, Parkside lost defender Dave Johnson early and Siers near the end. Star defender Craig Posselt did not play in the game and will miss the Conference Finals as well. 'We'll be put together with Band-Aids for Sunday's game. It'll be another difficult match because both Southern Indiana and North Kentucky are physical teams," said coach Kilps.

The Rangers outshot Northern Kentucky 12-9. UW-Parkside assistant coach Rick Vacca said the physical pounding from their opponents finally caught up to his team. "It was another hardfought, brutal match," said Vacca. UW -Parkside finished the season with a record of 15-7.

J ( l I I J J I ' I ' •• Biblical View of Homosexuality: Not So Cut and Dried • Diane Seering Staff Writer "The Bible is less clear on the sub- ject of homosexuality than commonly thought," claimed Aaron Snyder, Associate Professor of Philosophy at UW- Parkside, during his free lecture entitled "The Bible and Homosexuality." Those who claim to know the definitive Biblical answer to the question of homosexuality "have never bothered to read the Bible," he said. "There is not as much clarity as one might suppose." Because the Bible is such a large text, the professor narrowed his dis- cussion down to an examination of the five books of Moses that, accord- ing to Biblical history, were written by Moses in direct accordance with God, on Mount Sinai . Books such as Job, Psalms or the letters of Timothy are "just commentary," on the main five books of the Old Testament, Snyder asserted. In accordance with his own personal religious belief, Professor Snyder took the Jewish position, which he said, as with any controversial issue such as homosex- uality or abortion for instance, there is no "one position." "What it really comes down to," says Aaron Snyder, is "context ... not soundbites." When reading the Bible to find answers to the question of homosexuality, we need to look one or two lines before or after the important passages. In Leviticus 18:22, an English translation of the Bible pronounces, "A Man shall not lie down with mankind as with wom- ankind; it is an abomination." (Lesbianism is never mentioned in the text.) To read the books of Moses in the original Hebrew, the word meaning "lie down with," is [sh'khav] which can literally mean anything from, "reside in," "settle down with," or "have sex with." For a man to [Sh'khav] another man is an "abomi- riation," a word [teo-ay-vah] which has sixteen different meanings in the Torah (the five books of Moses.) The English translation of [teo-ay-vah) can range from meaning "unclean," "ritualistically forbidden," "lewd" or "cause for execution." Snyder said, "we are kidding ourselves if we think we know what [toe-ay-vah] means," it has so many different meanings. While it is clear that something regarding [sh'khav] was prohibited, it is not clear exactly what was pro- hibited. Of the approximately thirty-five people in attendance on Thursday, during the free lecture--one in a series of lectures offered by the Philosophy department--only a small number of attendees left before the conclusion of the discussion, although they may have left for rea- sons other than the controversial theme of the lecture. Overall, it was a harmless, well- prepared, lesson in linguistics and humility, about which Professor Snyder issued a warning. "Use humility" when attempting to illus- trate what the Bible really means and really says; "you don't know what it says or what it means." When and if scholars uncover the exact translation of the five books of Moses, (which is extremely unlikely after all these years) only then can we comprehend the Bible's true posi- tion regarding homosexuality; until that time, just about any opinion is valid. 414 / 632 6469 Homemade Pizzas • Sausage & cheese • Pepperoni & cheese • Vegetarian Style • Deluxe Style Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Though he had done much to ensure US participation, Roosevelt died before the signing of the UN Charter. In 1950, the United Nations condemned North Korea for attacking South Korea. The UN had asked both sides to hold elections to reunify Korea, but this advice was not heeded. The three-year war that followed was indecisive and did not result in reunification of the country. The United Nations Association of the United States of America is a center for policy research and public outreach on United Nations and multilateral issues. Before joining the organization in 1986, Olson served for seven years as executive director of the Unitarian Universalist United Nations Office and as UN representative of the Unitarian Universalist Association and the International Association for Religious Freedom. Just how useful is the United Nations? The Cold War is over, but how much of a role did the UN play in its resolution? James Olson will discuss "Preventive Diplomacy: The Effectiveness of the United Nations in Resolving Conflicts" at a free lecture at the University of WisconsinParkside on Wednesday, October 25. Olson is the vice president of national programs for the United Nations Association of the United States of America. The lecture will be held in Molinaro 107 at 3:30 p.m. This lecture is sponsored by the UWParkside Center for International Studies. The United Nations was founded April 23, 1945 in San Francisco. In preparation, Franklin Roosevelt tried to blunt potential opposition to US membership in the UN.

"1'bis is the worst year for Latinos because of affirmative action, bilingual education, language rights, and civil rights. It's been under attack," ssid Anthony Flores, Latinos Unidos president. Last year, the VicePresident of the United States was at the conference. This year, unfortunately, he was not. Some of this year's speakers included Jimmy Cabrera, the Honorable Luis Gutierrez (1).ll.l, Dr. Samuel Betances (professor of Sociology at Northeastern University), and the Honorable Nilsa Cruzperez (New Jersey General Assembly). Cabrera spoke at Parkside last year. Workshops keyed in on five areas: Empowerment, Community, Diversity, Pride, and Unity. In a Community workshop, Tina Anchondo, a Parkside student, listened to Cruz-Perez discuss voter's rights, as a lot of Latinos are concerned and don't know what their rights are. "She gave me some ideas on how I can get my mom to vote," said Anchondo. Anchondo has been trying to convince her mother to register for some time now. Flores was impressed with Gutierrez and said,"We're try109 to get him on campus. He's an excellent speaker!" Gutierrez is a member of Congress in the House of Representatives. Flores also highlighted speaker Juan Torres, a Parkside student and member of Kenosha school board. College fairs and federal agencies for employment were on hand to speak with highschool students, college students, and community members. This year, over 4000 people were estimated to have attended the conference. Latinos from UWWhitewater, UW-Milwaukee, UW-Eau Claire, and UWMadison met with Parkside students at the conference. They seemed to be in mutual agreement to have a coalition in Milwaukee this November, to discuss issues raised at the conference.

All three went deaf just for fun. Pete Townshend of The Who, famous for loudly smashing his guitars to bits for concert finales, gave Hearing Education and Awareness for Rockers (H.E.AR.) a $10,000 donation after announcing his hearing damage due to loud music. Townshend said, "The real reason that I haven't performed live for a long time is that Ihave very severe hearing damage. It's manifested itself as tinnitus, ringing in the ears at the frequencies that I play the guitar. It's very, very difficult for me to work at music. '! Eric Clapton says that one of his ears is at least half deaf. "When I'm onstage, I have to stand a certain way to be able to hear everything. Otherwise, Ican only hear half of what's going on." And Ted Nugent admits, "My left ear is there just to balance my face, because it doesn't work at all." H.E.AR. is a non-profit organization with international affiliates. Kathy Peck, a singer and bass player who suffered a forty percent hearing loss in one ear, founded H.E.A.R. with Dr. Flash Gordon in 1988 after both attended an excessively loud concert at a local club. Some of H.E.AR.'s newest supporters are the rock groups Primus, Faith No More, Spinal Tap, and The Doors. A H.E.AR. video documentary features Pete Townshend, Todd Rundgren, Ray Charles, Mickey Hart of The Grateful Dead, the late Bill Grabam, Ted Nugent, Huey Lewis, and Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich who said, "Don't give me this stuff that you're a wimp if you put earplugs in, because I think you're a bigger idiot if you end up walking around not being able to hear what your friends are saying, or not being able to hear tbe next Metallica album." Musicians onstage are not the only ones Kathy Peck at risk. Cary Tennis joked in EQ: The Creative Recording Magazine, "Since I earn part of my living as a music critic, the fact that I have hearing damage probably doesn't surprise some people, who no doubt assumed I was deaf all along." . There are over 125 types of hearing protectors on the market today. Some fulfill the need to hear accurately. Some satisfy fashion preferences. Westone Laboratories, Inc. designed Musician's Earplugs so the fidelity of the original sound is preserved and the world does not sound muffled. Earplugs are now available from California, called Earshades, in 20 colors. They are decorated with jewels, stones and feathers. Kathy Peck says, "Rock 'n' roll is like any other sport. You wear your protective gear. Think of them as being like sunglasses for our ears." Some artists feel their fans should not have to bother witb plugs. Huey Lewis says, "Part of the power ritual at a live show is volume. But it should be monitored, out of concern for the audience." Neil Peart of Rush says of acts wearing earplugs, "I think it's a stupid thing. If YOU'RE not going to accept (the volume level), why should you bludgeon your audience with it? If you need (earplugs) to get through a performance, then maybe the music is too loud." I I I I I National Coming Out Day • Kristine Hansen Staff Writer The Gay and Lesbian Organization (GLO) at .. Parkside wanted to be "vISIble" during homecoming week. October 11 was National Coming Out Day, celebrated worldwide, in which the gay, lesbian, and bisexual community urges those in the "closet" to declare who they are. . Hot pink flyers and stickers with an upside-down hot pink triangle on a black background were distributed on campus by GLO members. The Women's Center passed out the flyers in conjunction with their bake sale on October 11, sbowing support. The flyers explained National Coming Out Day as "a support system for those who feel, for whatever reason, that it is unsafe to leave their 'closet. m If one supported the hidden gay and lesbian community s/he was asked to wear the inverted triangle sticker proudly. GLO is sponsoring a dance at Parkside on October 20, open to Parkside students and the community. One must be 18 to enter the door and 21 to purchase alcohol at the dance. In the past, area high schoolers have flocked to the dance, as there are few places they can openly express their sexuality. Parkside's own Kimberly Blanchette will star in "Outloud," a comedy and poetry reading, on October 25 in Union Cinema. Blanchette, a GLO member, is both a professional comedian and nationally published poet. Blanchette was elected third runner-up in Parkside's Homecoming King contest.

Main Street Racine, WI 53402 Space: Parkside's Final Frontier. • Derek Bishop Staff Writer Area hospitals forced to reduce their budget released the KR (Kenosha-Racine) Imaging Building to be used at the discretion of UW-Parkside. The contract stated that, "upon vacating the premises, the structure either be terminated or donated to Parkside," said Assistant Chancellor, G. Gary Grace. The structure. built in 1989. is designed as a medical facility and is located on the east end of the Parkside campus behind Tallent Hall. Mter the building was vacated this past spring. Parkside officials hosted an open house for organizations and departments on campus to present proposals for the use of the vacated building. Reasonable proposals Regional Staff Development Regional Staff and Development Genter Director, Esther Letven stated. "Our proposal was to move the entire facility to the larger building. RSDC provides services for educators and the school district in the KenoshaIRacine area. We've just run out of space." University Police Police Chief Robert Deane said, "We have no safe holding room for prisoners, no meeting space, no restroom for prisoners, and no interrogation room. We were recently asked to hold a sexual advocacy program and we cannot do that because we have no room for a crowd. We need more storage space and training. We were going to try to get the building and share the space with the Educator's Credit Union so we can protect them as well." Educator's Credit Union Vice President of Loans for Educator's Credit Union, Jim Henderson quoted, "The planning board didn't take any real action. There was an investigation for the different options. They studied the proposal. but no action was taken." Dr. Streeter added, "the rental space for commercial enterprise was looked into and was being offered to any enterprise in general." Student Health Services Student Health officials are still undecided whether they will use the structure as the new base because of many concerns by the Disability Awareness Committee. "SHS has been operating at the same Molinaro D115 location for the past 10 years, during which client visits have more. than doubled," stated the former Director of Health and Counseling Services, Sandra Riese. "We must comply with State of Wisconsin regulations governing: storage of prescription medications, confidentiality and medicaVcounseling records storage that should be separate from client areas, a dirty room KR Imaging for storage of biohazard ings, networking and conmaterials and cleaning of sultation with faculty soiled equipment. and a and staff; access for stulaboratory room to con- dents. faculty. and staff; duct strep throat screens. and a need for satellite pregnancy and other lab PHE office space and tests.

"The current shuttle buses were purchased before the handicap accessible code went into effect some twenty odd years ago". said Grace. A meeting is still being drawn up. by both the Student Health and Counseling Services and the Disability Awareness Committee to discuss the issue of KR, stated a Parkside official. Funding more difficult to secure In the current economic situation, it is projected that the Wisconsin State funding will become more difficult to secure. "The state is granted a fixed and limited budget from the government. to deal with maintenance and rebuilding. or building of various buildings," said Grace. "Parkside's chances of receiving the estimated $250.000 from the state to renovate the current area. of Student Health Services by expanding upon the facility within the Molinaro building structure does not look good," stated Grace. Some "cons"concerning the possible new location are the balancing of clinical work with formal educational programs and teaching classes; supervision of peer health educators, events, activities and programs; services to physically disabled students who need assistance or special toileting facilities; campus emergency coverage by the health service staff; meet- "This Issue is a Main Concern" A suggestion made by a student who wishes to remain anonymous, stated, "This issue is a main concern especially for students and disabled students alike: location and access to it.

Also, Kim's naivete in the "pleasure seeker" episode was shown to be reluctance, rather than fear or ignorance, by a show that featured a.n alternate reality of Kim's life. In this reahty, he was engaged to marry a beautiful young cellist (maybe he met her at the .Iuilliard"). As previously stated, any guy, no matter how inexperie~ced,. should realize when someone IS "hitting on him." Thank those clever Voyager producers for realizing that Kim reacted "out of character" for a young man, and for giving him a reason to ignore the lovely "pleasure seeker" woman last season. Paris and Chakotay's characters have been explored in several episodes already. It's refreshing that ,",yager is letting Paris' "bad side" (namely, his womanizing) be "a cross that he has to bear," rather than just your "run of the mill expected behavior" for a Starfleet , , officer. Score one for the women s movement! It also is encouraging that they are trying to show Chakotay in a less restrained light. Last season, Chakotay was almost the caricature of a stoic, unemotional Indian. So, it's good that the producers have recognized that his character needs some "bad points" to balance out his pluses. Providing that Voyager doesn't only have sixteen episodes again in the second season, I'd say that it has done just about everything right. Now, if they'd only make Janeway stop screaming, the show would be perfect. oBarb Churchill Staff Writer The second season on Star Trek: ,",yager has been in full swing for about two months now, so I thought that I'd take another look at how it's doing. Were any of the things I talked about previously fixed, and IS the show getting any better? In a word, YES! Voyager is getting better thanks to more character developme~t of Tom Paris, Harry Kim, and Chakotay. These characters were largely ignored last se~son,but t~ey have "gotten their due during this season, and there are still m~nyshows left. This is indeed encouragmg (as Tuvok might say.) The further "fleshing out" of Harry Kim's character has been particularly welcome. Last season, it was established in the season opener "Caretaker" that Kim was an accomplished clarinetist that had studied at the renowned Juilliard school. So, as a clarinetist myself, it really rankled me that he never was shown playing his clarinet! So what if he'd left his clarinet behind-Replicate a new one!Any musician would do this, if music was truly that important to him. And if this guy really went to Juilliard, music would be that important, so he should h" shown playing his clarinetFrequently. This season, he finally has replicated himself a clarinet (thank God for that twenty-fourth century technology!) and he's been shown playing in his quarCD Review ~ P t rea ar y oTy Wilda Entertainment Editor If Led Zeppelin had been born in the gothic rock heyday of the eighties and, if Robert Plant hadn't been kicked so hard in the groin before becoming a vocalist, the result would sound something like Tea Party. Celtic spiritualism, Indian instrumentation, alternative style morbidity, and philosophical lyrics mix to give Edges of Twilight its signature sound. The string work of Stuart Chatwood and Jeff Martin is tight and professional on the standard and bass and guitar parts and even better on mandolin, harpguitar, tabla, djembe and harmonium. Jeff Burrows keeps the discord of these instruments together with an understated percussion serving in the background as glue holding things in place. And over it all there is the voice of Martin, a mid-range vocal that never quite hits the sub-sonic lows of most goth singers but also .never veers into the heavy metal shriek it seems to threaten to. Highlights of the CD are the opening power chords of "Fire in the Head," a standard invitation to come into the darkness to play, and the super-long (6+ minutes) "Sister Awake," a showoff piece in which Tea Party shows just how-many instruments they can use and styles they can touch in one song. Lyrically, the band draws heavily on spiritualism and Celtic poetry ("Does the sun renounce it's kingdom! as the shadows fall," from "Turn the Light down Low" is a fairly typical line) that sometimes has you wondering whether they just finished a class in the works ofYeats. Nothing exactly new here, your standard brooding, heavy, poetic, gothic atmosphere. It's been done before, The Doors, The Cult, sisters of Mercy, but at least it is done well. t ( \ IRONICALLY; THE TIME TO START SAVING FOR RETIREMENT IS WHEN IT WOKS LIKE YOU CAN LEAST AFFORD IT. C an't afTord to save for retirement? The truth is.you can't afford not to. Not when you realize that your retirement can last 20 to 30 years or more. You'll want to live at least as comfortably then as you do now. And that takes planning. By starting to save now, you can take advantage of tax deferral and give your money time to compound and grow. Consider this: Set aside just $100 each month beginning at age 30 and you can accumulate over $172,1091}by the time you reach age 65. But wait ten years and you'll have to budget $219 each month to reach the same goal.

Petak's (RRacine)sudden flip-flopon the stadium vote? None? You folks must have been reading my column from day one! Nice going! In case any of you missed it, Petak decidedto change his vote on the stadium issue from NO (whichhe'd voted twice)to YES, givingthe OKto a special "stadium taxing district," which includes Racine County. Racine County is one of the few counties in-Wisconsin that DOESNOTcurrently levy a sales tax. The state senate's action basically says, "We don't care that you don"t levy a sales tax. Start doingit for thisNOW." But as previously stated in this column, the constitutionality of this raises grave doubts. Number one, CAN the state arbitrarily force a county to levy a tax that it doesn't want? Racine County residents are adamant in their refusal to field another tax. This was reflected in the recent vote by the RacineCounty Supervisory Board, when they voted 28-0 against implementing a sales tax, even if the state insisted. Number two, the issue of the special "stadium district" is a problem.When only part ofthe state has to pay for something, should the state REALLYbe involved?And if the state demands that it IS involved, perhaps the whole state, rather than just part, should have to pay for the stadium. Otherwise, it probablyisn't legal. Lastly, forcing a county that never has levied a sales tax to suddenly start doingit will probably cost more money than the amount that state wants to collect!Think about this one: the infrastructure JUST ISN'T THEREin Racine County, because it doesn't have a sales Observations Taking a Walk • C. J. Nelson Ranger Columnist Let's join John for a walk. He has just finished jogging on Kenosha's lakefront. He is now walking back to his car, which is parked in the Kemper Center parking lot. John is wearing a black and silver sweat suit that has seen better days. It has some holes in it and is frayed, but it is very comfortable. When he works, John wears a suit and tie which befits his position as a human resources manager at Snap-On. John is not a small man-he stands about 6' 5" and 240 pounds. Walking down Third Avenue, he notices that behind him is a police cruiser. The officer appears to be watching John closely.John is looking at one of the opulent houses. John has noticed some windows need repair. The peace officer has noticed that John is looking at the house. He pulls up and says, "Youwouldn't be thinking of visiting that house later tonight, would you?" "No, of course not," John responds. "I just noticed that a window frame needs to be repaired." "Right," states the officer. "Youlook a little out of place for this neighborhood. Why don't you leave now while there is no trouble?" John says nothing and continues to his car. This is not the first time John has encountered this scenario. A couple months ago, he was looking for a house in the White Caps development He was driving his self-restored '67 Camaro. He was stopped because his car looked "out of place" and told to leave. John found'out that the police officers have the right tax. People would have to he hired, just to "commence tax- . ing." Forms would have to be filledout delineating what's being sold, so the tax can be properly implemented.This tax will be a logistical nightmare for Racine County. By forcing Racine County to levy this tax, the state really did "stick it to" us. County residents can hope that the Racine County Supervisors will back up their threat to file a lawsuit against the state. The Supervisors must "put their money where their mouths are." Then perhaps Racine Countywill stop being the doormat for Wisconsin's Senators. AB for Senator Petak, perhaps the hest thing that he can do for himself is to resign. As Racine County Board Supervisor Dan Sharkozyput it, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." to stop him because of the "Terry" rule. This rule allows a officer to stop someone as long as he can "articulate a suspicion" when questioned. John's friends in the police tell him that racist attitudes are prevalent on the force, but nothing is ever done about it. Our walk with John is over. What race is John? Should he have been "Terry stopped?" If John is an African-American male, can you understand why AfricanAmericans may have a different view of the police than whites? Is this really the kind of country you want? Making sense out of it all: The Great Racial Divide • George Harris Jr. Columnist After fifteen months, the "Trial of the Century" has finally ended. The long awaited verdict was reached in less than five hours. When the not guilty verdict was read, there was celebration and gnashing of teeth. There is still debate over whether the race card was played during the trial. I think the "Dream Team" simply took advantage of prosecution mistakes. The prosecution hung their hat on Det. Mark Fuhrman and his testimony. Remember the "Dream Team" didn't invent the sloppy LAPD, the inept criminologists or the racist cops. Some of the same people who told us that we should accept the verdict of the Rodney King cops tell us we shouldn't accept this one. They go so far as to suggest that black jurors couldn't or wouldn't convict black defendants. If that is the case, they learned from the white jurors in Simi Valley. After all, they couldn't convict the white cops who beat up Rodney King. Some have even questioned the intelligence of black people as jurors. This offends me because they are painting all blacks with the same brush. People also forget that the other three nonblack jurors came up with the same verdict. The polarization of the country has been orchestrated by the media covering this case. They showed us the contrast between the cheering African-Americans and the somber disgusted whites. They rarely showed whites who agreed, or blacks who disagreed with the verdict. In the end, we must live with the verdict. It was rendered fairly. We have to believe the jurors when they said race wasn't a factor. I think that the aftermath of the trial is a mirror shown to the face of America. We looked in that mirror and saw the monster of racism either staring us in the face or lurking over our shoulders. AfricanAmericans are simply reminded that we s.tilllive in a racist society. A Letter to CJ C.J. Nelson, I find your article offensive. Did you stop and consider for a moment that maybe O.J. didn't do it? Or do you see "black" and assume "killer?" It is absurd to assume that Judge Ito, Johnnie Cochran and the jury are as racist as the ALL white jury, judge and lawyers that freed the killer of Emmit Till. Youlook at O.J. and assume that he did it. That is the same reason our police departments, judicial system and entire society has been corrupt throughout history. Did you stop and think that the officers who investigated the O.J. case think just like you, assuming that he's guilty, and perhaps even "fixing" the evidence? Did you stop and think ahout how many black people don't have the money to fight this putrescent system and are in jail? Did you stop and think that maybe you're wrong? All types of minorities have been going to jail for years, not because they're guilty, but because racists never stop to think! This article fueled ignorance. Every time that I turned around I heard white people saying, "They're just going to let him walk? Where's our riot?" The point remains that we were not on the jury, and we didn't hear all the relevant evidence. You assumed he was guilty the night he went to jail. Now you feel shocked and cheated that O.J. has heen acquitted .... How can that be? Did you ever stop and think that maybe an innocent man has been in jail for more than a year? Innocent blacks have been going to jail for 462 years, long before America became a nation. It is more convenient for you to ASSUME. Johnathan Dye Student (., Q " , itorials Haven't you Heard Enough About OJ? Candidate Bios, cont. from p, 2 • Barb Churchill Ranger Columnist an umbrella, so I don't blame the jury for their disbelief. Also, as one juror said plaintively, "The gloves didn't fit." This keystone bit of evidence was woefully lacking, because it would've been child's play for Darden or Clark to check out whether the gloves fit OJ! Ah, but what about the DNA evidence? Wasn't THAT conclusive enough? Well, maybe, but the jurors aren't rocket scientists. They are just people. The state's case against OJ looked like a Swiss cheese after it's just been put through the wringer. The jury had every right to put aside the DNA evidence, because too much of the rest of the case didn't hold up. Personally, if there is someone to blame for this whole OJ trial fiasco, I'd blame Judge Ito. He may have thrown out much Dahlia Hernandez Political Science/ Sociology JR Dedicated and capable of honest, informative, and important decision-making.

And he seems to have a great deal of trouble controlling his anger during a . long and televised trial. It also seems strange that he made OJ sit in jail 18 hours more than he should have had to, just because all seventy of OJ's lawyers weren't there. Everyone in the world seems to have an opinion about OJ's guilt. Did he or didn't he? Perhaps we will never know. However, a jury that heard all the admissable, allowable evidence was not convinced that the state proved its case. That should be enough. After all, time should tell whether or not a guilty man "got away with murder," or whether "an innocent man was wrongfully imprisoned, " Tempershave been flaring highregarding the OJ Simpson verdict.One person says, "Hanghim high, he's guilty!" Anothersays, "No way was he guilty! The evidence wasn't there!"So, who's right? Logically,the evidence was inconclusive.As one defense lawyerput it on CNN, "Once Fuhrmanwas discredited, the statehad no case." Why? Well, ifheIS racist (and sexist, and fundamentallyimmoral, as it seemsthat he was), the jury haseveryright in the world to discreditall his testimony.

Each of the last four summers, the Division I Wildcats of Northwestern University have made the trek north from Evanston to Parkside for "Camp Kenosha." Practices are held on soccer fields coverted into two specially prepared football fields, complete with regulation N.C.A.A. goal posts and all the trappings of big time football. More than 140 Team members, coaches, and staffers came this summer. They sleep in our Residence Halls, have training tables in the Union Dining Room and use many other campus facilities. Their coach has described the setting as "outstanding". The N.U. team runs a grueling three-a-day practice schedule. Their day begins at 6:30 a.m. with breakfast and runs straight through until about 10:00 p.m. when the last classroom session is held. If the team isn't working out, eating, or sleeping, then it goes over the playbook. Nothing but football for ten days! ) From what's happened so far in the '95 season, " Camp Kenosha" must be working. In their best start since 1962 (3 and 1), the Cats have already pulled off what the critics are calling the "upset of the year" in collegiate football by beating the Irish of Notre Dame on their home turf in South Bend. They've also posted a big win against favored Air Force. And this past weekend knocked off their first Big Ten opponentthe Indiana Hoosiers- with an impressive 30 to 6 victory. Overtime Goal Not Enough After a scoreless regulation game October 14, the University of Wisconsin-Parks ide scored first, but finished second. The overtime goal wasn't enough for the victory as #16-ranked Northeast Missouri beat the Rangers 2-1 in OT. Ranger Lisa Sadowski scored the first goal of the game at the 94:57 mark in overtime to give Parkside the lead. But Northeast Missouri came back with two unanswered goals of their own to spoil a Ranger win. Head Coach Barb Singer said despite the loss, her team showed signs of optimism. "We played well against a nationally ranked team," said Singer. "After we scored the first goal of the game, we fell back on defense and that kind of hurt us." The Rangers were outshot 20-10, and the loss snapped their six-game winning streak. Sports Jeopardy!

The loss was the third straight for Parkside and dropped their record to 10-10 overall and 7-5 in the conference. "Parkside played one of our better matches of the year tonight," said Coach Len Johns. "Southern Indiana played incredible d~fense and won all of the important points. The score wasn't indicative of how tight the match was." UW-Parkside was led by the hitting of Leigh Eckert 04 kills) and Melissa Wolter (15 kills). Michelle Danielson had 57 assists for the Rangers. "Most of the teams are equally talented in the GLVC. I'm finding out there is a definite home court advantage in the conference, which ends up deciding these close matches," added Johns.

It happened for the Runnin' Rangers last Saturday at the UWP Cross Country Invitational. Six out of Parkside's top ten finishers earned personal bests as the Rangers took fifth out of 22 teams. "This is the best showing for our team this year," said Head Coach Lucian Rosa. The upper classmen also showed their might, allowing only one freshman into the top seven. "I'm glad our upper classmen showed up to run," said Rosa. "I'm very happy with Andy Sarnow. He is close to where he is capable of running." Sarnow ran the fastest Parkside time of the year (26:48) and finished 13th in the race. Senior Jesse Decker returned to form with his best time of the year (27:13) and Dave Sheriff continued his solid season 127:23). Freshman Steve MiIler has been the most consistent freshman and is steadily improving. Thel:52 half-miler from California was fourth for the Rangers. Dan Koch, Jeff Rhein, and Shane Carr also broke through with personal bests. Meanwhile, Brian Borkowski continued to be the most afflicted runner. This time the shoe less wonder got spiked over the knee and had to stop for thirty seconds. Bork was speechless over his latest casualty. Now the team's focus shifts to the Great Lakes Valley Conference Championships in Northern Kentucky. A meet that Sarnow believes the team will be well prepared for. "Since we've been training for 10 km, we should be ready physically and if we hold up mentally, we'll do well." Rosa remained optimistic as well. "I think if they put together a good race (the course isn't as tough as Parkside's) all five should be under 27:00." . Looking at the GLVC conference, Lewis is probably untouchable, but the rest of No Shots = No Victory Behind a strong offensive Ranger attack, the University of Wisconsin-Parks ide kept WPU-Indianapolis on the defense the entire match and chalked up a shutout 2-0 at Wood Road Field. UW-Parkside (12-4 overall, 6-2 GLVC) held WPUIndianapolis without a shot(14-0) for the entire match. The Rangers added both of their goals in the second half as Ricardo Pena found the back of the net at the 58:48 mark and Steven Goll sealed the victory at the 87:54 mark. Mike Guzaski recorded his second shutout in as many days for the Rangers. Head coach Rick Kilps said his team played smart soccer. "They (IUPU~Indianapolis) went into a defensive shell from the start ofthe game," said Kilps. "When you go against that style of play you can easily shoot yourself in the foot, but we responded nicely and put them away."
