Wolfenbtittel. in Wolfenbuuel, Germany, signed an agreement that complements the sister city relationship the two cities have . had for more than 30 years. Closing a long-standing gap in tbe otherwise healthy relationship between the two cities, UW-Parkside Cbancellor John Keating signed the agreement with a representative of Fachhochschule BraunschweigIWolfenbtittel, professor Achim Rogmann, in the Galbraith Room on Wyllie Hall's third floor. . Keating said the agreement shows UW-Parkside's commitment to "enriching our campus" and gives students a BYL.CONWAY B eginning in March of 2007, the uw- Parkside Student Union as you know it will be transformed into a multifaceted center dedicated to student leisure and activities. The planning for this extensive renovation was initiated in February of 2004 when the I Segregated University Fee Allocation Committee , and Parkside Student Government Association approved a $21 million budget in student fees to fund the renovation and expansion of the existing Student Union. The original Student Union was built in 1976 at a cost of $3.5 million in student fees and hasn't undergone any significant modifications since then. "It's had what I would call cosmetic kinds of renovations where they replaced the carpeting and redid the conference rooms and redid a bathroom and redid Union Square - mostly cosmetic," said director of Student Life, DeAnn Possehl. Revamping the building will provide UW- Parkside students with much-needed space for student activities and organizations, as well as updated facilities and services. "It's going very well," said Possehl, "The latest is, in the last two weeks it has been approved by the board of regents and the building commission. So, now the architects can begin the preparation of the construction documents in preparation for it being let out for bid. It's following the tirneline, so we're very pleased with that." The project is scheduled for completion in April of 2009, followed by a reopening celebration in September. The building project will ultimately create a new face for the UW- Parkside campus. The new Union is intended to serve as the main front entrance for the school. In all, the renovation will cost an estimated $24.57 million. However, this estimation is subject to change due to fluctuations in the costs of construction materials and stainless steel. .$23 million will be gathered in student fees and combined with $1.5 million in general program revenue dollars. . The student fees to support the project will be added to the cost of tuition over a spread 30 years. In the 2004-2005 school year, the collection of student fees began at $94.52 per student. Most of these students will never see, much less utilize the Union which they helped pay for unless they . come back as alumni. "Unfortunately that's just the reality of the way it works in the UW System," said Possehl. UNION page 12 Shuttle to Meet Racine Bus at Georgetown I BY JOE LUKASZEWICZ Catering to students from Racine, the UW-Parkside shuttle bus will make three trips to McDonald's near Georgetown In Racine during the next school year. These three trips will begin at 7:45 am; the shuttle bus will arrive at McDonald's at 8:00 a.m, and return to UW-Parkside at 8:15 a.m, The second trip will be '111:00 a.m.; the shuttle bus win arrive at McDonald's at 11 :15 a.m. and return to UW-Parkside '111:30 a.rn. Finally, at 5:00 p.m. the shuttle bus will arrive at McDonald's at 5: IS p.m. and return to UW-Parl<side at 5:30 p.m, . All that will be required to ride the shuttle bus is a UW-Parkside !D, to prove the passenger is a student. UW-Parkside Police chief, Michael Manion wants to "make sure that the Racine students who are relying on ROule 9 still have some form of transportation." He made the final decision to run the shuttle bus. in segregated fee money, so we will actually be saving around $13,000. That will be used to maintain the shuttle bus and pay for gasoline." Right now, UW-Parkside is not suie how much money it will actually cost to keep the shuttle bus running to Georgetown everyday. Marzion said, "We are always open to new ideas, but right now this is the most feasible solution, and after we try il;, we will decide whether we will keep going or whether we will have to change it." Manion also said there will be challenges with the shuttle bus running to Georgetown, such as students having to walk from the Talent Hall parking lot to Molinaro Hall for the three times shuttle bus makes its trip. Marzion said, "It's a balance" because this new system will definitely have both its negative and positive aspects to it. The next school year will be a trial run for the new shuttle bus route, starting the first day of the fall semester. much-needed global experience. Rogmann echoed Keating's comments . "Universities negotiate an agreement between campuse to give their students oppcnunitie, to travel and see the world," Rogmann said. "I'm very happy that the purpose of Ihi, agreement is not just to sign a piece of paper. but to bring life to that paper:' Kenosha and Wolfenbtittel municipal governments passed resolutions acknowledging one another as sister cities in 1974. But the citizens from the two cities started visiting four years before, when Wolfenbtittel sent a letter to Kenosha's People to People Program asking if there were host families for more than 70 Germans who wanted to visit Kenosha. Though Kenosha has had exchange programs with Wolfenbtittel for adults and high school students for "many GERMAN page 13 Mumps on the Move ... 11 .... - ... ,.. .... ..... Sl .........

WHITE Neighboring UW system schools have reported an exposure of mumps on campus. UW-Oshkosh has had four cases, and UW-Milwaukee now has 22 reports of either confinned or suspected cases of the virus infection. "Mumps is a viral illness II that is characterized by fever. head or muscle aches, tiredness. and swelling and tenderness of the salivary (parotid) glands just in the front or below the ear," said the Student Health & Counseling Center in an informational letter dated April 19. 2 An alternative idea involved sending the Kenosha Bus to Racine but that would cost the same amount of money to implement as the shuttle bus. Other ideas were also too costly to be implemented. Racine was charging around 25 percent of the real cost for Route 9, so any alternative to that route would cost more. At the end of the spring semester, the- Route 9 bus route will no longer offer transportation for UW-Parkside students from Racine. The price for maintaing the bus route is currently around $53,000. Previously, to pay for the bus route, SUFAC paid for most of the cost ($40,000), and the UW-Parkside police Department paid the rest ($13,000). SUFAC decided to no longer pay for Route 9, and the UW-Parkside police Department does not have the money to pay for it alone. About the effectiveness of the shuttle bus option, Marzion said, "n is not really saving us any money, the way that we will be paying around $40,000 h d f" "Come get t at goo copy. 11:00 AM, Senior An Exhibition Il, Com.

The following semester, I became assistant editor, and soon after that, at the end of my freshman year, I took the position of editor-in-chief. I've grown so much in the past three and a half years, gaining a world of practical education and experience. Although I won't graduate for another year, my work with our studeot newspaper will forever highlight my memories of UW·Parkside. There are so many people I've met who have affected my life in one way or annther. They have enriched my personality and introduced me to an infinite number of ideas and possibilities, and they are the people who make up this community I love. By working on The Ranger News, I have also learned to fully appreciate education, which is something I never thought much of prior to attending college. The paper was down on readership and credibility my first year and a half here. I wanted to fiod ways to improve it, and for the most part, I'm confident I did. I guess I've written more than 30 "Letters from the Editor," and this one is my last. Most ofthe ones io the past have focused on the internal operations of the newspaper, with overtones encouraging community involvement. In fact, I can't help but to use a brief portion of this "Letter" to encourage all students to look for a fitting studeot organization to be a part of next year. There are so many worthwhile opportunities here that it would be a shame to graduate without trying a few of them. Finally, it is time for me to move on from The Ranger News, and it is time for The Ranger News to move on from me. I'm optimistic that the newspaper will contioue growiog under its new ieadership, and I will be forever grateful for being part of such a valuable experience. Tbank you for all your support, Parks ide, but more importantly, thank you for reading. Henry D. Gaskins Editor-in-Chief 2003-2006 As next year's editor-in-chief, I am excited and anxious to continue strengthening and guiding the paper toward the highest potential of journalism. Readers can expect to see The Ranger News develop current areas as well as innovate a few new ideas. Our goals include continued advancement of the current page sections by covering a wider diversity of stories and possible additions of sections and themed columns. With plans for further developing the website, we will be publishing things that may be unable to fit within the weekly publication of the newspaper. Also, 1would like to encourage readers to bring to our attention any issues they feel should be included in the content of the newspaper or any news tips to share with us. With UW·Parkside and the interests of readers continuously expanding, it would be beneficial to increase staff size. A larger staff will enable The Ranger News the time to cover a wider variety of diversified issues. Those interested can apply for positions for next semester by calling The Ranger News office before the end of this semester, by filling out one of the applications located on The Ranger News office's door, or by e-mailing me at any point. I hope you, the readers, are excited to watch the newspaper achieve and maintain its potential. I am proud to be a part of the process. Christina M.

If the amendment becomes part of the Wisconsin Slateconstitution, it would make it harder for state and local governments to increase ~venue. Spending would be tied to the previous year's level adjusted for inflation, change in Wisconsin's total personal income, andnew construction growth. Spending could increase only if a referendum were passed in favor ofmore spending .. The amendment needs to be passed by bo!h houses of the legislature in the current tenn and in the next two-year term andthen approved in a statewide referendum in order to take effect. The board of regents said . theamendment would harm the UW System, its students, and Wisconsin's economy. UW'=' Parkside Chancellor John Keating agrees with the board. ''The university is already having a tough time with its bUdget," said Keating. "Clearly the board of regents does not believe thisis the best option for any sort of tax control, nor do L" The board of regents' reSOlution stated that the amendment would force the UW System to increase tuition and impose student enrollment caps: the state would not be as able to acquire federal funds for university research: and the UW System would not increase the number of state citizens with four-year degrees, thereby harming the economy. Keating said the state should try to grow the state's economy and thereby increase tax revenue to a level that would support the university, "and the best way to improve the economy of the state is to invest in education:' According to Keating, the percentage of persons witb a baccalaureate degree in the area around UW-Parkside is woefully behind the rest of the state and the nation. "So in general, we have a sort of undereducated population, and that translates .to a poor prognosis for the future of the economy," he said. Keating's biggest problem with the amendment is that "to allow people in a referendu.m, as opposed to a representall ve democracy, to make these k!nd of judgments is sort of puntmg for the difficult problems of the legislature." Keating does not believe the state should 'be run by referendum."

Relational aggression often takes the forms of rumor spreading, gossip, lies, telling secrets, eye rolling, exclusion, and the silent treatment in attempts to promote cruelty through the social networks. A women's studies class on campus has recently taken up the project of researching relational aggression. The class, taught by Roseann Mason, is working to raise awareness of this growing problem by handing OUl surveys and providing infonnauon to students at UW-Parkside.

Laura Mason, UW- Parkside's graphic design and project development coordinator. said, "Before starting any redesign of the homepage and subpages, we looked at several major universities and discussed the good and the bad points of each of their respective Web site ..' There have been many misconceptions about the sudden change with the. Weh site. As Mason put it, " ... some people believe that moneywas wasted on the new look and design when the old design was just fine. The fact is. theredesign didn't cost anything. It just meant changing the priority of projects that we have-on our plates." Another misconception is that the WST is in complete control of the entire university's Web site. According to Mason, "Unless we are asked for help, the departments are in cbarge of their own sites", and we can't access Or change them:' The homepage used to present a news story but is now more recruitment-focused. The primary goal for the launching of the-new Web site was to be up and running before student orientations so that potential incoming students at UW- Parkside could see the brand-new site. The chancellor and provost cabinets felt that the homepage should be geared more toward future students, in hopes to improve the enrollment at UW- Parkside.

The WST is more than willing to take any opinions or feedback that students may have about the Web site. Mason said, "We want a whole lot more of the student voice on the web."

It has been brought to my attention by the individual I i nterviewed fOJ" Ihat article. "as'l;istam.ptofe;sor Katherine Gregor). that J entirely misquoted or fabricated much of the information that I wrote in the article. GregQf1reguesled that I refrain-from using a tape recorder during the 'interview, so I did not have a'more accurate souro;.:e than m) notes to write the article. If 1 were allowed to tape record the interview, J am sw'c I would have accrued accurate infonnation and this retraction would not be lleccssary. As an Engli~h major with concentration in writing. f am serving my required internship as a reporter for this paper. I have always stressed doing a professional job 011 my multiple contributions I have given to The Ranger News, even when TQriginally. began writing articles for the newspaper back when r was a freshman and sophomore. so jfl wrote an unprofessional pjece, then [am glad to do the professional act of retracting the story. J n my article, Prof. Gregory wished to,note these numerous errors: * She is an assistant professor and not an associate professor. * It wasn't a trip to South America or the Dominican Republic that influenced her topic. It was anending a conference in Jamaica that helped her to make the connections around migration. * The sex workers did not have to cut through her bullshit, because she didn't have any that was passed against them. * The book was on her doctoral and not "oral" dissertation, which was something she reworked for !8 months after she starred teaching at Parkside. * She did not say the word "pile" to represent a social group comprised of gays, lesbians, and transgendered people. * She bas gathered video-based ethnographic data on Islamic youths and Hip Hop in the Netherlands for another project for the past 3 112 years. I hope this retraction is found satisfactory, and in the future, I will take further steps in verifying my information.

Some holes were small and shallow; others were notably larger. "The hole behind home plate was like 4 feet deep and 5 feet wide," head coach Laura FiJlipp said. Vandals stole the pitching rubber as well. "It's pretty disheartening to come off a road trip and find all that damage," Fillipp said. "The toughest thing ahout this situation is the fact that the haseball and softhall teams do the majority of the grounds work on their fields," FiJlipp said. "We put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into that field, and for someone to do what they did is pretty upsetting," '"1l'le'1'aid. While the soccer team never mows their field and the basketball teams do not sweep their 1Ioor, it is not unusual to see softball players on the field raking, shoveling, or pulling the Iarp over their field, "Certainly we wanted to play at home this week," said Fillipp. However, the field was Intervarsity Club Report Page 4 weightllii g onT~ because they were <111 w~ on the field. "I'm ntit'going to use the excusellll1t we were tired, but we did lug a lot of buckets Of Sand;..d\Fll""d-water 'Mound on Tuesday," said Fillipp. Both Reed and Fillipp expressed concern about how the incident affected the girls as students. "1 would send the girls to their classes, and their professors told them that they heard what happened and excused them from class in 'order to return to work on the field," said Fillipp. Reed said if he bad to thank anyone it would be assistant athletic trainer Eric Olsen and stndent Jill Winkler. "Jill is an athlete from a different sport [track/cross- country], but she's one of those kids who say, 'if there's anything 1 can do t6 help just say so' and she means it," Reed said.

Reed ordered sand and dirt to fill the holes. "We don't have that kind of stuff in stock. so we had to spend a little bit of money to get it," Reed said. Another bit of bad news carne when Read spoke with risk management officer Steve Carlson. Carlson informed Reed that the damage done would not be covered by school insurance. "It's a big setback budget- wise for me at least," Reed said, Director of UW-Parkside Police and Safety Mike Marzion said, "The cost is all of ours to share." Marzion added, "I don't know why someone would do this, but it is serious to me," Head athletic director Dave Williams estimated that at least 20 people worked 15-20 hours each to get the field ready for play Wednesday. "l.R. worked his bntt off, and fortunately for us, he's one of the best around at building and maintaining fields," HOLES page 3 Brestan Pitches April II. 2006 Shutout, Hits Two ...-I~Homers Security on Lock Theft and Vandalism a Concern at Ranger Hall BY HENRY D. GASKJNS Smashed mirrors and stolen property prompted the professional staff at Ranger Hall to lock each individual hallway in the residence hall on March 24, with the concern that theft and vandalism on campus is a growing trend. "Things get stolen at "Parkside,' said UW-Parkside Chief of Police Mike Marzion. "Seriously, 1 don't koow what it is; these kids don't think people steal things around here." After locking the hallway doors, it became apparent that many on-campus residents don't carry their keys, accordi ng to DeAnn Possehl, director of student life. "It's actually pointed out a potential liability," Possehl said. The UW-Parkside police department reeei ved 22 calls for vandalism last year, the most since 2000, but the numbers for theft are down. In 2005, 61 calls for theft were reported to the campus police department, which is 15 more calls than in 2004. However, theft was more apparent in 2000 and 2001, when more than 100 calls for theft per year were reported. Even thought the numbers for theft are seemingly down from years past, the associate director of student life, Steve Wallner, said it is still one of the biggest problems for on-campus residents. He said it is not uncommon for students to leave their room for a short amount of time and come back to find something missing. With two smashed mirrors in the bathrooms at Ranger Hall and other vandalistic problems running rampant, Possehl and Wallner agreed that the cost of living on campus could rise next year as a result. "Somebody has to pay for It if the individual responsible for it doesn't pay," said Possehl. "Any damage [in Ranger Hall], that cost is within the housing costs and there's no state funds to pay for it," said Wallner. He also said that if residents had information on any vandalism, they should say something right away. "You wouldn't allow somebody to walk into your house and smash your bathroom mirror and not say anything, would you?" Wallner asked rhetorically. "It's part of living in a community." The recent vandalism is as serious as theft, according to Chief Manion, because it is a criminal offense. "If you get somebody damaging the res. halls, they can get arrested for it," he said. Manion also said that crimes of any nature should be reported as soon as possible. "Often times it helps determine if it's a trend," said Marzion. "We have the greatest likelihood of solving the crime by finding out what happened the sooner it's reported." Students Elect S.T.A.R. Candidates for Student Government BYD.WillTE The numbers for the recent Parkside Student Government election were unavailable as of press time for The Ranger News, but this much was clear: Tyson Fettes was elected PSGA president along with his running mate, Tony Dubose, after all the ballots were counted last Thursday night. . Mike Scerpella, this year's PSGA elections director, said the number of students that voted was not bad and that he was impressed with the first day. "We're at a better pace than last year," said Scerpella on Wednesday. Scerpella said this year PSGA tried to have the candidates do more campaigning to promote voting awareness. Voter Tamara Wienke said a lot of students complain around campus, but tell her they did not vote. "If you don't voice your opinion you don't have the right to complain," said Weinke, Wienke said the questions in last week's issue of The Ranger News to the running PSGA presidential candidates helped a lot, but she also wanted to know more about the senators running. DuBose said if elected he will try to implement a monthly or bi-monthly newsletter for PSGA ..This newsletter would let students know what IS gomg on and make sure the organizational representatives are taking their roles seriously. " . «It's our job to make sure the student s voice IS heard," said DuBose. .

"To read the nomination forms was really humbling;' said Smith. " A lot of the women have done a lot of volunteer work. They've really made a positive impact on others. and T like that they were told that." Smith read off the names at the awar.d ceremony and presented each woman with a pen and pencil gift set. Each pen and pencil had a quote by Alfred Tennyson printed on it: UI am a part of all that [ have met." "They are a part of everything they put their hands on whether it's just helping someone with homework or being a part of a club," said Smith. "They really have made their mark." Smith also took the time to type out all of the nomination letters and present them to the nominees so they knew exactly what they were being honored for. "I thought it would be nice for them to get a copy of that," said Smith. The "In Her Footsteps" and Why are you running for PSGA president? To bring some integrity and honesty back to PSGA. There needs to be a new perspective on campus which has not been around in the time I've been here. Too many students are unaware of issues that affect them. Someone needs to help inform them and ask their opinion. This is how you act in someone's best interests. Who is your vice presidential running mate, and .why did you choose him or her? I chose not to run with anyone. Most of the people I know don't want to be in PSGA anymore as they got tired of trying to get things done only to run into a brick wall. What are UW-Parkside students most concerned about? The financial aspect of their education. Tuition goes higher yet it's not for bener instructors it's for a union expansion. 40+ students are very concerned about the bus cuts to Rt. 9. We have to find ways to tnm the budget without hurting the students. Why are you running for PSGA president? I am running for president because I feel that there are a number of problems within PSGA that need to be addressed, and that the current, and potential leadership in place are incapable of affecting the changes needed to best serve the student body of UW-Parkside. With my professional and mili tary background, and willingness to make myself accountable to the students and administration, I am ideally suited to do what those in office are unable to do: serve and be accountable to students. Who is your vice presidential running mate, and why did you choose him or her? My vice presidential running mate is Greg Dwyer. I chose him because outside of my personal and religious convictions, we both have a desire to do what is best for the students, and not merely advance an individual and self-gratifying agenda. Why are you running for PSG A President? I am running for PSGA president to makethe campus community a better place, and restore a sense of pride back into the university. Who is your vice presidential running mate, and why did you choose him or her? Tony and I are running together because we have a very strong working relationship. As a team Tony and I will be an advocate for students rights. Tony is a very dedicated senator, serving more than two years in that position. Tony has shown me extraordinary leadership as well as his peers as ne has been a resident advisor as well. Tony will work tirelessly on behalf of the students. What are UW-Parkside students most concerned about? Access and affordability. Students at UWP work an average of 26 hours a week. The most in the UW system, which takes away from their ability to concentrate on school or any extracurriculars they may want to get involved in. ELECTION COVERAGE page 3 Campaign for Self-Esteem Brings Confusion, Vandalism, and Discussion to Parkside BYCARL~ANNESURBER Hoping to educate the student body by baring their own, Peer Health Educators have recently launched a massive media campaign encouraging students of UW-Parkside to be "comfortable in your own skin." Inspired by a similar campaign sponsored by Dove, Peer Health Educators and Marcy Hufendick of the Student Health and Counseling Center have adapted the campaign to educate UW-Parkside students of body-image issues. "The program is a take off of the Dove's Real Beauty Campaign," said Hufendick, "which has targeted on the issues of low self-esteem among women and girls in terms of their bodies and being . accepting of their appearance." The students of PHE decided to take the idea behind this campaign and expand the target from only women but men as well. Lee-Anne Moore, who begau this year as a member but will be returning in fall 2006 as PRE captain, said that PHE wanted to reach out to everybody, regardless of race, ethnicity, or gender. "When we were actually putting this campaign together," said Moore. "we wanted to cover the board." PRE brought together a diverse group of student volunteers who were brave enough to strip down to their undergarments and pose for pictures that were then put all over Uw-Parkside. With quotes like "be comfortable in your skin" and "this is the real student body," PHE hoped to bring awareness and discussion on body-image. self-esteem, and the student body of UW-Parkside. "It's 10 get people talking about how do we judge. or not judge, other people based on their body size versus who they really are:' said Hufendick. "Their size shouldn't define their value as a person." However, not everybody viewing these posters-got this WOMEN HONORS page 4 "Come get that good co ~R1~ er~:~d Fest :~~g~::~~ha .~;~. ~ N e s n"R~ ..'N_,"wri"~_"i.d"'""",,,of'I.U",~","~ __ ~'",._".,_. ~. ~.~~""!,,,,~.J.

Currently 14 students are running for senate positions and Tyson Fettes, Barbara Walsh, and Andrew Scheeler are running for president.

Each presidential candidate was given seven questions from The Ranger News. Their answers are as follows: UW-Parkside Honors Invasion of the Body Image Snatchers Women Of Today BYL.CONWAY "I'm speechless!" said Stacy Yang after receiving an award of recognition for her hard work helping students as a mentor as well as for additional involvement around campus. In honor of Women's History Month, women from UW-Parkside's faculty. staff, and students were nominated for the "Making Her Mark". The Women's Center presented the awards to recipients at a luncheon March 28. "[These awards] honor women's history because they show how women in today's society on campuses are making a difference," said Amber Smith, Women's Center coordinator. The awards show how. women stand up for themselves and accomplish goals, according to Smith. The women recognized were nominated by students, teachers, advisors, and anyone else who had noticed someone making a difference in the lives of others. Women were nominated for anything from helping Organize events on campus to taking time out of their day to tutor other students, as well as volunteering on campus and in the neighboring communities.

Barbara Walsh UW-Parkside Student Route 9 Still Facing Elimination BY JOE LUKASZEWICZ Impacting as many as 40 UWParkside students, SUFAC made the final decision of whether to keep Route 9 running to campus Friday, March 24. This is the bus route [hat students from Racine use to commute to school every day. Although SUFAC may decide not to keep Route 9, many students voiced their opinions in support of the route. Some also offered suggestions that include offering a night b us service. Barbara Walsh,UWParkside student, wrote a petition in the effort to keep Route 9 running, as well as fix problems with the bus service. Walsh has already collected approximately 200 signatures for her petition from both students and faculty. "The overall opinion received from the people asked to sign the petition has been nothing but positive," said Walsh. Walsh and Candice Pierce said they a re willing to compromise, for example by paying more money lor bus fares because the bus route goes out of county. Walsh believes this petition probably will not affect SUFAC's decision, but she still wants to show SUFAC how many people support the bus route. Walsh crafted the petition to show students the situation with the bus route, instead of simply trying to sway SUFAC's opinion. She added that many students chose UW-- Parkside because using the bus route enables them to live at home and commute inexpensively. Candice Pierce could have attended another college such as the University of Milwaukee, but she chose UW-Parkside because she could use Route 9 to go to Classes while living at home. Pierce is outraged that Route 9 W'H probably be eliminated: "We nrc losing one of the major forms °l transportation, and the students were not even considered among the voters of this decision." Pierce is just b eginning her path to a degree, and n ow she will have to find a new "rm of transportation for the rest 1,1 her time at UW-Parkside. Many other students will face the same challenges. Although the petition was due lT'day, Walsh said, "SUFAC has not evun asked to see the petition up to lhls point." Walsh is not only using UWurkside's resources in an attempt to • eeP Route 9, but she has also taken cr plea to Racine's committees in an attempt to resolve the issue. Among the people who support '"is idea are Alderman Thomas ""roan and Mayor Gary Becker. e Route 9 issue will be taken to oommittee at 6:30 p.m. on March 29. Phis will be the second meeting ""cerning Route 9, and Walsh tk0pes that more students will attend Inis meeting. UnivefsHy of Wlsconsin-Portoide', Student Newspaper Academic Hazard: The Never-Ending"Problem~0f Pricy Tex.booh BBYY NNIICCHHOOlL AACS MMTICCHMAAEPL, / RAVNIKAR Author's note: This article is the first in a series examining historical trends and recent developments in textbook publishing, adoption, and purchases. I he Ranger News encourages students and faculty members with comments regarding textbooks to e-mail ravni000@ uwp.edu for future articles. Jim Rosellini and Rick Haksey work at different ends of UW-Parkside's campus, unknown to many of the university's students. But together, they have helped lower textbook prices overall and hope to inform the campus about more ways to keep prices down. And students need the help. Though neither Follett nor UW-Parkside has tabulated the textbook expenses per student at the university, the National Association of College Stores (NACS) 2005 industry report estimated that the average U.S. college student spent $704 in their college bookstore for 2003-2004, just over $350 per semester. Rosellini, who wears his trademark Follett "store manager" nametag around the bookstore sales floor every day, oversees the operations of UW-Par'kside's campus bookstore. By his estimate, some student demographics tend to pay even more for books. "If somebody tended to be in, say, biology classes and took four courses, it could run $400 [for a semester] easily," Rosellini said. Parent of two college students himself, Rosellini noted that upperclassmen and English majors also tend to have greater textbook expenses. Haskey, from his office buried at the end of Union 209's narrow hallway, said that he has also been more concerned with textbook pricing since heading up a textbook study group ordered by Chancellor John Keating in Spring 2005. "Every semester, when you walk into the bookstore and you have to shell out 120, 80 bucks for a book, that's a lot of coin," Haskey said, his eyes widening with sympathy. "But it's not the bookstore setting the prices, selling the course schedule. They're acting as a conduit from the publisher to the student. When you're spending that kind of money on a book, it's going to be emotionally charged." Much of Haskey's work concerns him with student money. His job as one of the assistant directors of Student Activities puts him in charge of overseeing some of the most integral contracts that UW-Parkside holds with outside companies - the campus bookstore. Ranger Card Office, laundry service, and Higher One, to name a few. Both agree that there are some misconceptions that students and faculty may have about what role the bookstore itself plays in textbook prices, as well as how students and Book Dollars jtore Tola I: 2 2.6%) note: of the average 4.9 cents on even dollar that '•allege bookstores earn, the NACS 2005 Financial Report states, they returned more than 12.5% to the university or college they serve. About 4.3% usually funds additional contributions for scholarships and men handise donations. (taken from 2005 Preliminary Data from the National Association of College Stores) Publisher and Author Total: 7Z4%) faculty affect those costs. Rossellini said that most people probably think that campus bookstores gouge customers for more money. "There's a standard benchmark in retail," Rosselini said, "that if you buy something for 50 cents, you turn around and sell it for a "dollar or more." But textbook markup isn't even as high as 100 percent, he said. "You're talking maybe 20 percent, something in that range." With most students and faculty concerned with their own workload, it's not hard to understand why bookstore operations are not their top priority. But Haskey hopes to make textbook issues a larger blip on the campus radar "to alleviate some of those emotions." Bookstore Contract Extended, New Bid Will Wait ktil '08 Renovation to Union Hall facilities forced an extension on the contract between UWParkside and Follett Higher Education Group, which serves as the university's bookstore vendor, Haskey said. The contract was renewed in March. Though the university could have opened up bids for other book vendors on campus, Haskey said that Follett remained the school's best choice, having managed the bookstore at UW-Parkside since 1988. "The timing wasn't right" to open up the possibility of new management of the campus bookstore, Haskey said. The contract now allows Follett to stay in business on campus until 2008. when 1400000 1200000 1000000 800000 600000 400000 200000 n • Used Books • New Books — • Other Sales FY '99 FY '00 FY '01 FY '02 FY '03 FY '04 FY '05 YTD YTD 05 06 The above graph shows the increase of revenue made by used books in comparison to revenue made by new books and other products sold by the bookstore. "Come get that good copy!" the campus bookstore will be permanently relocated to Union Hall. Haskey said that the university will be open for bids "when the bookstore is in a new facility." Rosellini, manager of the bookstore, said that Follett likely will try to stay at UWParkside, but it may face competition. Follett is the largest college-store management company in the nation with 708 stores, according to the NACS. Another NACS member, Barnes and Noble, is a distant second, with nearly 200 fewer stores. "It will pretty much be open season," Rosellini said. To his knowledge, the contract does not give Follett the right to first refusal when the next bid comes up. But whether that means the father of two will be out of a job on the UW-Parkside campus is not clear. Rosellini said that he has heard of other campuses where bookstore management changed and retained the existing staff to cash in on their experience and familiarity with the store. Renewed Contract Affects Disc Golf Sales & University Income The two-year extension also came with what Haskey called a "simple modification" to the terms of the contract, comprising two significant changes. One amendment to the contract tosses disc-golf supplies, which were previously under the charge of the Ranger Card office, over to Follett for the bookstore to sell starting next year. Haskey said that because the Union Expansion Project will displace the Ranger Card office before giving it a new home, the stipulation had to be added to the contract. "The interim facility probably won't have space to accommodate retail sales." he said. "We have to prepare for the Union renovation." Also part of the deal is an additional $20,(XX) that Follett will pay to the university on top of the original contract's terms, which required a minimum annual guarantee of $180,(XX) per year for the first two years and $200,(XX) for consecutive years. Above the guarantee, the university receives 10.5 percent of Follett's net sales on campus up to 2 million dollars. Net sales over 2 million garner 11.5 percent payment for the university. 'That (the guaranteed minimum) was never a concern because our sales level and commissions were always over those rates," Haskey said. The final report from the textbook study group reported that the university pulled in "approximately $250,000 per year in shared revenue from Follett."

Any good therefore that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again." -Mahatma Ghandi BY L. CONWAY Less than 40 percent of American adults believe that today's youth will make the world a better place. Ironically, more than 50 percent of America's teenagers are involved in community service. Their efforts save the U.S. economy more than $30 billion a year according to volunteer program coordinator, Casey Jones. "There are many reasons to volunteer," said Jones. "Volunteering provides the students the opportunity to get into the community and be altruistic but also to take a look at it as a tool to prepare your career." "Almost every two weeks we put out a sheet to give students an idea of what's coming up," said Jones. Programs such as Arts Alive and Hunger Cleanup are heavily dependent on student volunteers and encourage any level of participation, including planning and organization, publicity, and fund raising. "Whenever an employer or agency contacts the university looking for one of our students to fill a Campus job, whether it's full-time for graduates or part-time while you're still in school, internships or volunteer activities, we post it on Ranger Track and then the students have access to that," said Jones. Students interested in any of the posted events or just volunteering in general can go to the Career Center to sign up. Students are often given a screening to determine which volunteering activity best suits their interests. Volunteering can be especially beneficial to those testing the waters in career fields when deciding upon a major. For example, most students cannot take internships as freshmen and sophomores but, through volunteering, can try something out and decide whether it is something they want to base their education on. Mark Patterson, fund-raising chair of Circle K, is a pre-med in nursing. He is currently coordinating the fund-raising for UW-Parkside's Hunger Cleanup. Patterson frequently donates blood and enjoys helping people. "It's a good time," said Patterson. "I get satisfaction when I make someone else feel good.'

Sales of new and Uscd texts at UW-Parkside balance out , antl 51 percent of total textbook jj/s for the 2005 fiscal year. With more "m half these sales comprising used 'cxtbooks, efforts in UW-Parkside's "okstore ^ave brought the university's (s "d ents more savings than national have^ SU§gest most co"ege students Students who buy their textbooks and sell them back save 63 percent, ccording to the group's final report. ose who don't sell their books back av'e halt that. The fiipside, of course, is at almost half of buyers—either late- "ni'ng students or those who prefer new obooks—don't save a penny. The NACS, of which Follett is a new ' reP°rted that for 2003-2004, w textbooks made up just over 45 Cent °f bookstore sales nationwide, whereas used textbooks composed little more than 16 percent of national sales, which topped out at almost $7 billion for course materials. But Rossellini and the Follett staff have concentrated on having more used textbooks available. In Fiscal Year 05, Haskey pointed out, students who bought used books saved about $800,000, or roughly $160 apiece on textbooks. "Hopefully," Haskey said, "the ratio will stabilize or even improve." Still, Follett took a 6.4 percent hit in their total sales from the fiscal year 2004 to that of 2005. "I suspect textbook sales dropped because students are becoming privy to alternative means for buying textbooks," Haskey said, alluding to the lower prices students can find online. "You can't blame 'em," he quickly added. "You do what you need to do to save yourself a bit of coin. But it's the bookstore that needs to change and adapt to the needs and demands of the students. If their sales are going down, the invisible hand of competition is saying that the market is working." Rosselini agreed but noted that if a $100 textbook fetches $10 plus shipping and handling on eBay, "somewhere, somebody's taking a $90 hit." "There's definitely competition," he acknowledged. "Nobody's immune to that." As Rosellini noted, pricing for textbooks does fluctuate between particular academic disciplines, though. English majors, though often required to purchase more books, may in another sense have things easier. Textbooks are a smaller market than trade publishers, Rosellini noted, and many English classes—particularly those in the upper levels, where anthologies are less common than works by a single author—tend to use books with larger print runs on bigger-name imprints like Penguin, Knopf, and Scribner, to name a few. Other majors face the difficulty of smaller print runs and markets driving up Upcoming Volunteer Activities Saturday.

Plus, Rosellini said, overhead on technology purchases is too high for UW-Parkside to even think about changing over to any university-owned operations. "There's no question that when a company like Follett buys from [distributors! it's going to be easier to get things done," he said. "For a school or an individual to do that k pretty tough." mi ,s For Parkside, Textbook Rental More Costly "There were always questions and concerns about the costs of textbooks," Haskey said. "A lot of students' colleagues may have traveled to or attended other UW schools that have textbook rental programs. That always seems rather appealing to students if [they] don't have to buy them." Textbook rental programs generally operate at institution-owned stores, and, as the name suggests, they offer students a lower annual cost for textbook usage for renting textbooks instead of buying them. It was at the behest of Parkside Student Government Association that the chancellor ordered the textbook study group in Spring 2005 n ,m! J®xtbook rental Pro§rams may just be a golden calf for universities and colleges like UW-Parkside that have always contracted their bookstore services. Follett has been with the university since 1988, but even 20 years earlier, when the university was founded, it brought in another company to manage the store. Transferring from a contract bookstore to a rental would still require "a middle ground" of a self-run bookstore, Haskey said. Schools like UW-Milwaukee with self-run bookstores are in a better position to switch over to a textbook rental program, because they already have the management and stock in place. "What we've found is that UW institutions that have had textbook rental have (had that program] for a long time," Haskey said. "They are part of the institutions so thev wouldn't necessarily have those costs to incorporate it." The other downside to rental programs is the hit that the university takes in said**165*1' Wh,Ch StUdCntS feel buried in the cost of tuition and segregated fees, Haskey Since UW-Parkside's campus bookstore's sales comprise about 90 percent on average in textbook sales, if it wanted to self-manage its store or start a textbook rental program Haskey says, it would have to figure out how to finance the startup costs for selling the other 10 percent of other materials. i .,Th°Se SJUndry ite™S'like trade books not earmarked for classes, school supplies clothing, and gifts, only make up 8 percent of UW-Parkside bookstore sales—a meaeer portion compared to the almost-40 percent of goods sold nationwide that were not required class material. Professors' Role in Cost Influence is Critical "Adopting" a textbook for a class less than five weeks before the start of a new semester will drastically affect the cost of the book, Rosselini and Haskey said Both acknowledged that the professors adopting books for their courses are the final authoritv on what reading material students need. y I hat s their skill set," Haskey said. "That's what they're paid to know." The textbooks study group found, however, that there may be some additional measures that professors can take to alleviate the textbook burden that students feel "If laculty members are more aware of the influences of pricing of textbooks maybe they'll think the new edition isn't as important," he said. If a professor knows that a book they have adopted is bundled material, Haskey suggests that they look for an alternate single text. He also advised professors to ask publishers how frequently new editions come out. For classes with high turnover of professors or that are often taught by adjunct faculty or tor classes with multiple sections taught by different professors, Haskey suggested that departments or instructors adopt a policy that would decide on one book for a specified period of time. Final Report: "Advisory Committee is Next Step" I he texbook study group's final report advised that UW-Parkside form a bookstore advisory committee, which many other college campuses have. The advisory committee, the report states, "will provide a forum lor addressing operational issues, and educating and enhancing communication to campus constituents." It could assist in contract evaluations and the relocation of the bookstore to the Student Union and "would work on ways to implement the textbook study group's recommendations." Haskey is heading up the textbook advisory committee, which he hopes will convene soon. He said that he's met with Follett representatives a number of times legaiding how to iorm the committee, which Follett recommends every institution have. But liist, Hak.sey said, he and Follett will survey the campus community on customer satisfaction with current services. Haskey thinks that the bookstore advisory committee could gather and disseminate mlormation about how students, faculty, and administration can help limit the cost of textbooks. The biggest factor in educating adopters would be students," Haskey said. "If PSGA put together a formalized process or a committee in charge of that, I would suspect that would be the most effective." I laskey also envisions that he and the bookstore managers will volunteer to present solutions at departmental or faculty-senate meetings. 1 suspect that [education] will probably be the first charge of the bookstore advisory committee, Haskey said: though, he hesitated to promise anything before a few students and professors volunteer to sit on the committee. "Once the committee is formalized, we can decide what action to take." "Committed, Optimistic" Members Needed for Bookstore Committee Haskey wants to get the five- to seven-member committee together as soon as possible. (U "We're looking at the timing situation right now," Haskey said. "We're looking for me best way ol finding those who are interested in participating." Those on the committee would solicit their governance groups for feedback on action items and serve m a largely advisory capacity, as members of the previous study group.

Founding members, Tony Bresette and Chris "Jumbo" lnloes, returned to the school they once frequented to play the classic rock tunes that they adore. The Union that awaited them on Tuesday was a bit larger than what they remembered playing to full crowds in, because UW-Parkside's former Union is now the Child Care Center nearTallenl Hall. As the band acquainted themselves with their new venue, the crowd trickled in sparingly - not the attendance that either The Beat or the band hoped for that night. Music isn't all about crowds, though, as lnloes said, "We're having a good time. We enjoy this music, and we enjoy playing so much. If there are two people to entertain out there, we're happy." The feeling of returning to his former school definitely turned back the clock for Bresette, who said, "It makes me feel like a kid again. It reminds me of when 1 w as 21 or 22." Speaking of youth and twcnlysomcthings, two members of the Root River Band are actual UW-Parksidc students, treasurer of The Beat and trombonist Lance Uttkc and son of Tony Bresette and trumpeter, Chris Bresette. "I'm proud of him," said Bresette of his son Chris. "He's the musician in the family, and Parkside is quite the school." Chris Bresette's music education through life and here at UW-Parksidc helped prepare him for the unexpected day when he would play live with his father. "It's great. I wanted to play with my dad for eight years," said Chris Bresette. "I used to live in a different city and talk about it. and nothing ever became of it. just not the right circumstances. When my dad met up again with Jumbo, it was a good opportunity for me to gel to play with my dad and actually be in a band with him. It's the best thing." The other music major, Ultke, wound up becoming a part of the band by word of mouth from his friend Chris Bresette. "I knew Chris from wind ensemble, and he asked me to come out," said Uttke. "1 gave it a shot, and I enjoyed it. I don't remember any gig we have had that hasn't been fun." The similarity of two former UWParkside students jamming in a band and passing on that love of music to two present day UW-Parkside Students did not go unnoticed. "1 think it shows that music expands, that the next generation is being trained hdre," said Ami Boutcrse. faculty advisor for The Beat, who helped herself to a birthday concert that very night. As for being able to promote such an Rock Old Stomping Grounds vent, event. Ayesu Lartcy, The BBeeaatt pprreessiiddeenntt,. said, "I think it is cool that the school allows us to put on these concerts." The event also got promotional help from Director of Public Relations Dave Buchanan on the UW-Parkside web site. "He did help us a lot on this," said lnloes of Buchanan. "He did a nice article on the web site; he's been very responsive to us, and I'm really pleased with what he did." Despite the promotional effort's lack of drawing in a crowd, the band played with enthusiasm, and the few in the audience sang, clapped, and danced along to classics from The Beatles, Neil Young, The Eagles, and many more. "It's all about the music, and it's all about fun. and in this case, it's also about the music club. The Beat." said Uttke, who was grateful for all who showed up and supported the concert. Since there was a minimal crowd, the band hopes to return next school year for .a second attempt at bringing out the student populace from the woodwork. Regarding future concerts, Uttke said, "I have pride for Parkside, and to come back here and play as an alumnus would be amazing, beyond anything 1 could think of. Come on out next time. You're going to have a blast." As for that night, though, lnloes said, "It's been great to return here to Parkside." For further information on Tony, Jumbo, and the Root River Band, visit their web site at www.Tony-Jumbo.com. As for The Beat, they would like all who can to come to their next event. "It's Belle and the Magic Flute showing on Wednesday. March 29th. at 7:30 p.m. in the [Communication Arts] theater," said Sandra Danielson, The Beat vice president. The hour and a half performance will be $6 for adults; $4 for students, seniors, and children; and free for children 5 and under. According to Boutcrse, "It's Beauty and the Beast meets Mozart's The Magic Flute, set in a 1950's diner." How to Relate to Bf TYRONE PAY TON Women's history has been a campus focus throughout the month of March, and as the month comes to a close, now is the time to reflect upon the lessons learned from female recognition.

I take a moment to reflect on all the acknowledgments of the important people recognized during this month and one of the things they all have in common: menstruation. As we all know, March is Women's History Month, and with all the recognition of history being celebrated, we have a few things here at UW-Parkside to celebrate as well. I saw the Women's Center with sliding window wide open for the first time this semester. They have struggled this past year, first, getting up and running and then getting a hard smack in the face from SUFAC members cutting next year's budget drastically, but they are pulling through and continuing to make waves throughout this campus. With so many women on campus, one might find it surprising that they have had such a difficult time. But although this month is celebrating the achievements of women, we must still remember that being a womyn is no walk in the park. A person would be delusional if they thought that women were born with the same opportunities as men, even in this day and age. Since introductory sociology is generally a required credit, 1 am assuming that most people are not unfamiliar with the glossy glass ceiling that most women look up through on a daily basis. Although it might not have had much of an effect on the SUFAC budget, I think it is important to point out that with a majority of men on the committee, it may not be surprising that the Women's Center's budget was pathetically shaved down. Oh, but I forgot, this is March, and look at how far women have come. Just look at the Union Bridge and you can see what great accomplishments women, like Sacagawea and Barbara Walters, have made. Oh, and one cannot forget Condaliza Rice, my very own role model. I must also admit some of my gripes 1 have had with the Women's Issues committee in PSGA over the past year. In the beginning of fall semester, I found it interesting that the only executive positions in PSGA held by women were the combined role of secretary and PC2, public relations, and the infamous Women's Issue's committee directors. Please excuse my redundancy while I repeat those: secretary, public relations (big fancy word for promotions), and Women's Issues. Is everybody following me orchis one? Even when they switched out their vice president and pro tempore positions, did Dave Koss back any women candidates? And in this upcoming election, do you see any women running for president or vice president who are backed by PSGA'a incumbent STAR party? Or does the STAR party view this step like both the Republican and Democratic parties do: as political suicide? Even with all the recognition March brings, I a m still wondering how far we have actually made it as a sex. Like many civil rights movements of the 60's, women seem to have lost their drive. We have fought tooth and nail to get where we are, and now, it seems, we are content to just buy whitening strips and manicures. Maybe Virginia Wolf was right when she said, concerning Mary Carmichael in ARoom of One's Own, that perhaps "men were no longer to her 'the opposing faction'; she need not waste her time railing against them." Maybe women no longer view living as their sex as a struggle, and they take their privaledges for granted. Women have gained,so much that we do not feel the need to "rail against" the men any longer. Maybe it is the difficulties we have as a society that are actually defining what a women is. What makes a women different from a man anyway, besides having ovaries, a pair of tits, a uterus, and that beautiful dark blood that flows out of that uterus once (or more) a month? Those are her biological organs that allow science to define her, but this definition is not always as simple as we would be led to believe. With breast, uterus, and ovarian cancer, not all women have these organs. With the occurrence of menopause, not all women's bodies release eggs to be collected on that cushion of blood and then released. And with the issues of sex and gender orientation, our society fails at the attempt to simplify the binaries between men and women. These issues should be acknowledged, but for sake of word count, I am unable to completely dive into the topic. I am overjoyed that the Women's Center is getting back on its feet, and I hope more women and men will flock to its door to lend a hand. I am happy that PSGA has found the need to recognize women throughout the entire year with a committee, especially when that is the one committee really kicking this school in the balls. I just hope that women's power will not stop here, that we will continue to strive for more power and acknowledgement. We have come a long way, but we haven't hit menopause just yet. We have got to keep this cycle flowing, and with each wave that crests and falls back into the tide, another one should always be there, waiting to hit like a freak'n tsunami.

I am not concerned for the panel members, for they have a better grasp on what reality is than I do. They had nothing to prove to me except the same things I expect all people to prove — and they did; they truly care for their fellow humans. No, the Color Me Queer panel are not the ones we should worry about, for they have their sh@t together. I might be going out on a limb, but I would guess there are more than five people of "color" that are gay at UW-Parkside. If, and only if, this assumption is true, then those possible figments of my imagination are the ones we as brothers and sisters should be concerned about. The panel was there to let others know they are not alone. Yet after the hour or so flew by. I looked behind me and saw only three other people. Were all the members of the minority groups at UW-Parkside. The price of admission to hear the discussion panel cost nothing. This was an excellent opportunity for these organizations to show they are strong and that the money they receive is being used to support and unify minority students. This panel of students, which set out to reach out to others, succeeded in reaching at least one person.

The game, played in two halves of forty minutes, favored the Raiders in their red jerseys in the first half, as the guys in the Ranger trademark green went into halftime down 2 scores to 1. These scores, or tries as they are called in rugby, were lacking the decisive conversion point that is taken after a successful try in traditional rugby, because there were no goalposts on the field at Petrifying Springs. Without goalposts then to provide a simpler tiebreaking situation, the two rugby clubs would have to fight to gain the most tries and play to avoid a tie. The Rangers took a tenacious effort into the second half, restricting the Raiders from increasing on their lead, and instead pushed the ball in for two consecutive successful tries to open the half. Up 3 to 2, the Raiders clawed out one more successful try to bring the score back to being neck and neck. With time counting down, the Rangers went for one last push after kicking the ball deep into opposing territory. As the ball was a few feet from another score, the Rangers went into a final scrum for the last point. The rugby scrum is where both opposing teams gather into a mass of interlocking bodies and then drive up against each other while the ball is tossed underneath their legs. The teams then fight for ball possession by kicking the ball behind them or driving back the other team through force until a free player can claim the ball. Typically, the ball is kicked out in a scrum, but the Rangers drove back the Raiders while in the scrum, and escorted the ball into position for a score, leading then 4 to 3. The half ended within the next minute to give Parkside the victory. "I think Parkside has come a long way as far as today," said assistant head coach, Johan LeGrange. "We got a lot of young rookies coming up, but we did fare well for the first game of the season." Following the game, both teams briefly rested before returning to the field for a friendly scrimmage. As LeGrange suited up in a jersey to join in on the fun, he said, "It's always fun to play." Ice tied the game a few times after that but was never able to take the lead back, and Premium Saltines were able to make numerous key plays down the stretch and won the game 76-68. In the Ranger Bailers versus Underdogs game, the Ranger Bailers were able to get off to a good start and used that to head into halftime with a 31-26 lead. They proceeded to increase their lead early in the second half and took a commanding 50-39 lead with about 10:00 left.

CANTWELL After struggling to win any games last season, the Cabrass recently found themselves in the intramural floor hockey championship game Tuesday, March 21, in the Sports and Activity Center, and the Cobrasss won 3-2. The keys to victory for the Cobrasss who played against Sure Shot, a well-rounded team known for crisp play and attitude, were their special style of cobra trap defense and the girl managers on the sidelines. The "emo boppers" said that once they started coming to the games, the Cobrasss started winning. The match-up was close until the final period. The score was 2-2 with under 5 minutes to play when MVP Cameron Stoewe snuck a shot past the Sure Shot goalie. That shot gave Stoewe his second goal of the game and put his team ahead for good. Alex Swayze scored the team's only other goal. Ending their improbable run from worst to first, the Cobrasss won respect ~nd a t-shirt commemorating their championship. March 28, 2006 Brooms ^ and Blankets at Ranger Softball "If we <an play better every day this last month of the season, we'll give ourselves a pretty good (han<e to advance to regionals." Laura Fillip Head coach BY C. CANTWELL The UW-Parkside Rangers Softball team played their first home game of the year Thursday, March 23, with a doubleheader versus the Olivet Nazarene Tigers. The Rangers won the first game 3-0. The real story of the day was the weather; at game time the conditions were near blizzard. Head coach Laura Fillip said, "If we didn't have heaters in the dugout, I wouldn't have let my girls play." Commenting on other factors that led to the decision to play two non-conference games in the snow. Fillip said, "We have a conference game here this Sunday, and if we're gonna play then, we should try to get used to the weather." She added, "1 don't know if there is any advantage to that at all, but we should be able to play in the cold weather." The first game did not feature much offense, and small ball was the determining factor in who came out victorious. Both teams only totaled three hits. For the Rangers, Michelle Racine had two of the team's three hits. In the third inning, Katrina Homa singled through the left side to score a run. Then two throwing errors resulted in two more runs for the Rangers before the inning came to an end. Capitalizing on errors and base on balls, the Rangers put the pressure on, and the Tigers were unable to mount a comeback. Defensively, Meagan Shimkus took the mound for the Rangers and pitched four innings while scattering two hits and striking out seven. Erica Swan came in as a reliever and threw three strong innings, only giving up one hit. While the snow really started flying during the second game, the Ranger bats heated up. In the home half of the first inning, back-to-back walks led to an RBI single for Michelle Racine. Two batters later, Stephanie Madry lined a shot into right center, clearing the bases with two more RBI's. In total, seven of the nine lady Rangers made a plate appearance in the first inning. Olivet Nazarene scored its only run of the game on a rushed throw from third base that could have ended the second inning. More offense came in the fifth inning when Allison Wodziak hit a dribbler right in front of home plate that the catcher quickly scooped up. Lauren Madry was on third base and came home hard, knocking the ball out of the catcher's mitt to score the first of four more runs. With the bases loaded, Racine took four pitches to score a run. Fillip then called for Emily Grenier to pinch hit. Grenier smoked a single to the wall in right center to score the final two runs. Anna Bluemel took to the rubber for the start of game two. She began the game giving up back-to-back singles before settling in and retiring three in a row with runners on second and third. Cassie Moreland came on in relief, giving up five hits in the final three innings. Olivet Nazarene left 12 runners stranded on base during the second game. "Their roster is down a little bit, and they have some injuries, but traditionally they have a pretty good team," said Fillip. "If we can play better every day this last month of the season, we'll give ourselves a pretty good chance to advance to regionals," she added. The sweep moved the Rangers over the .500 mark to 10-9. The Tigers fell to 13-10 with the two losses.

Upcoming Foreign Film er The Sea Insi Racing Into Spri Page 1 11 Panelof Diverse Women Helps OMS A Speak Out BYTYRONE PAYTON The Office of Multicultural Student Affairs hosted a Speak Out session in respect to March as Women's History Month Wednesday, March I, at noon in the Union Square. As attendants were treated to mixed salad and tomato bisque with breadsticks, theSpeak Out chewed on topics that werecentralized around critical issues facing women of all ethnicity today. To digest such diverse questions, the event was organized with a diverse pane] in mind, and OMSA selected six female representatives of UW-Parkside who covered a wide cultural spectrum of Jewish, African-American, Hmong, Latina. Albanian, and European and Nati ve American ethnicities. . "We picked this diverse panel on purpose," said Mirella Perez, "because we wanted to learn what each individual woman had to say of the diversity that they've lived, the diversity that they've been through, and just their experiences." Perez was one of the active members of the Speak Out, as she helped plan the event and participated as one of the six panelists. Another panelist, Stacey Yang, treasurer of Parkside Asian Organization, voiced her opinion on being part of the noon discussion. "When I think of women of color, I see only black and white," said Yang, "and 1 would like to see brown in there. That's why I took it upon myselfto be part of the panel, because I want an Asian perception. I want Asian women to stand up for themsel ves." The facilitator of the Speak Out, Jacqueline Smith-Gonzalez, is a Women's ISsues committee member and PSGA co-director of the diversity committee. With diversity and women's issues a focal part of her life and organizational responsibilities, Smith commented upon the difficulty of obtaining such a diverse panel. "It was a challenge," said Smith, "because we had to try and find not only somebody to represent different ethnicities, but also that these women knew what they were talking about." What they talked about was sincere issues of appearance and lack of appropriate representation of women today. especially in the media of magazines, television, music, and film.

KELLOGG "There's no joy in Muctville about the situation for French and German, I'd love t~see them both thriving, but It s been a problem for very many years," said Donald Cress, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.

Despite the common perception that French and German are not worthwhile. Cress stressed the benefits of learning any foreign language: "Whether you use it or not. you, when you think about how the language works, you learn Euglish better, and when you learn English better, you become a better reader and a clearer writer." "1 didn't understand English grammar until I took Latin in high school." said Cress. "I spoke Latin once ...and I don't expect to do it again. Even if people took a German [course] and they don't plan to use it. they're going to Jearn a lot about English."

Along the walls of the fieldhouse were numerous stands of authentic Native American crafts ranging from small items of necklaces and dream-catchers to larger gifts of pillows, artwork, and woven rugs and blankets, while the center of the building was reserved for the Drums, the Native American musical performers invited to the Pow Wow. The Host Drum Scherpella said Koss is like a "textbook encyclopedia" and always knows what to do and the approach to take. Positions available for election are president, vice president, and 25 open senate seats. Scherpella said anyone wanting to get involved can benefit from even being in PSGA.

As a master of ceremonies for many powwows, Denning shared his opinion on Sacred Circle's edition. ''There is no other powwow like this one," said Denning.

SUFAC Director Eric Schultz gave the presentation to student government and the students who decided to attend the meeting.

The money will go to fund various university outlets on campus next year, including the UW-Parkside athletics, student organizations and programming, the Office of Multi-Cultural Student Affairs, the Child Care Center, and costs for the Union and the Union Expansion Project. The Racine Bus was cut out completely from the budget. and no one contested it at the meeting. ""I think the committee worked very hard this year." said Schultz.

The speak -out, sponsored by OMSA and The Black Student Ilnioll, was geared towart! anyone and everyone and had a fairly good turnout. "I hnpe people will walk away with an understanding that "They have trials and tribulations, but [black men] are view,ed under a ml !' African-American males are genuinely good people.
