UW-Parkside Serbian students anguish over Kosovo Christine DonaIies Editors Note: The opinions expressed in this article are those of the students quoted and do not necessiarly reflect the opinions of the Ranger or it's staff. The NATO bombings against Yugoslavian Serbs have caused several Serbian students at UW- Parkside to claim NATO is oper- ating under double standards. In addition, these students agree NATO's action is illegal and has united the Serbian people. Serbians and Albanians have made bloody conquests of. Kosovo for thousands of years, each claiming their right to the land. Americans are presented one side of the story; interviews from Serbian students reveal another. Dalibor Tomic is seeking a Business degree and is a senator for UW-Parkside's Student Government. He points out NATO's illegal action by reminding us of the UN Charter. "NATO can't bomb without the authorization of the UN Security Council which they never got, and they can't bomb a sovereign nation unless that country" threatens any of the NATO countries." Tomic is the first American- born citizen in his family. His family moved from Bosnia to the U.S. in 1972; and he was born in 1979. His grandfather lives in Belgrade, but most of his family is in Novi Sad, Bosnia. NATO bombings have occurred in Novi Sad, and Tomic's family has been unable to communicate with any of their relatives. "I don't think it's fair, if they're [NATO] going to do one thing to one side, I feel they should do it to the other side." He refers to the Croatian Army's rapid expulsion carried out in a number of days of 200,000 ethnic Serbs from Krajina, Croatia in 1995. 14,000 Serbs were killed and 73% of their homes destroyed. "NATO didn't do anything," Tomic declared. ''I'm not saying we're innocent, a lot of atrocities are being committed by all three sides . . . They should stop the bombing and go back to the negotiating table because they were getting real close to peace." He believes it wo~d be fair if both sides continued living in Kosovo and claims Serbian President, Slobodan Milosevic revoked Kosovo's autonomy .because "A lot of Serbians were· fleeing the region. They were being robbed, murders were being commi tted, and they [Albanians] were discriminatory towards the Serbian people ·because they [Serbs] were the minority." Because Milosevic was not a popular president, Tomic infers, "One of NATO's goals was to divide the Serbian people, but the bombings had an opposite affect; they united and strengthened Serbian support for Milosevic. . "I was not a great fan of Milosevic," he explains, 'but now I have to support what he's doing because a lot of Serbs did flee the region and he did get rid of their [Albanian] power. Then the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) formed and they wanted inde- pendence. I just don't think that's right, the US government even labeled the KLA a terrorist orga- nization six months ago." Tatjana Bicanin agrees with Tomic concerning Milosevic. She is a double major in Business and Communication pursuing a Conflict Analysis and Resolution Certificate, and also is a first-gen- eration Serbian-American. Her father was born in Kosovo and migrated to the US at 19. Over 25 years, he moved most of his fam- ily from Kosovo to the US. . . Bicanin talks about her aunt who lives near Belgrade with her two high school-aged children. "There are a lot of [NATOl bomb- ings in Belgrade right now and for the last three weeks, school has stopped for them. Now they just stay at home and hide in their basement when the skies are all lit up with bombs. .. I can't even imagine what they're going through because I've never experienced it. 1wish they could come over here." Two men in her family recent- ly had to join the Serbian Army. "There's always been friction over there and this goes way back. It's all about politics, but I also think they believe what they're doing is right in sticking up for their own community."

The exhibit is located in the display cases near the Levell library elevators. The exhibit focuses on archival and library resources available for histori- cal research. The book is the culmination of a 12-year research effort utiliz- mg manuscript collections, government documents, contemporary newspa- per and periodical articles, biographical sources, and dissertations and the- ses. Examples of these resources are highlighted in the exhibit. The exhibit was completed by the staff of the University Archives and Area Research Center with assistance from Professor Buenker and Judith Pryor, Coordinator of Reference. Overblown fence causes postponed games The UW-Parkside Men's baseball team was unable to play this past weekend because the leftfield fence was blown over due to the windy weather conditions. The mishap may cause this weekends home games to be reloaded to a local area if the $7,000 fence cannot be fixed. Sports Information Director Steve Kratochvil said that Coach Sal Bando was contacting various area ball parks to find a place to play if the fence is still not fixed.

The Plan 2008 committee, chaired by Larry Duetsc.h, has worked overtime to produce an excellent plan that effectively addresses all seven of the UW System's diversity goals for the next decade. I would also like to thank everyone who attended meetings and contributed ideas and suggestions. This was truly a campuswide effort. As a relatively new Chancellor, I am happy that the campus has recommended to the Regents an aggressive plan to pursue enhanced diversity in the campus community. It gives me a map to follow for the future, and whatever has happened in the past is history. It allow me to expect energetic directions toward diversity that the campus has identified for itself. My administration fully encourages this direction. Our next challenge is to carry out this plan. I am concerned that every member of this educational community recognize that the specific goals will not be attained unless we all enter into the effort in a spirit of constructive dialogue. One expects to find differing ideas in an educational setting. However, we must avoid actions, statements, and other behaviors that constitute harassment of individuals or groups, while at the same time maintaining an environment that supports the free exchange of ideas. Racial and ethnic diversity is a crucial element of any college campus today. Without a diverse faculty, staff, and student body, as well as a curriculum that reflects a rich diversity of peoples and cultures, none of our students will obtain an adequate education for the 21st Century. We will not be able to build on the progress we have made in our learning community unless we maintain a high level of collegiality and a campus climate that is free of harassment. Language or behavior that corrodes building a positive climate will not be tolerated on See Letter, Page 12 IC "a' NEWS ...... · ............. 2-6 COMMENTARY .............

Students say UWParkside needs more weekend activities. Well, at least a partial solution may come this Fall. UW-Parkside is working to start a "Disc Golf" program. Administrators hope the course will help keep students here on the weekends. The course would be located in the between the Communication Arts and the Sports and Activities Center. UW-Parkside received a matching basket grant from the Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA). The PDGA pays for nine of the basket holes, but UW-Parkside still needs to raise money for the other nine baskets. Each "hole" will have signs indicating the hole number, the distance in feet, a description of the hole, and a student organization sponsorship. Biology's Ed Wallen researched the PDGA grant. He then showed the idea to Residence Life Director DeAnn Stone, . and she signed for the grant. The course is scheduled for a possible opening date in Fall of Disc golf may become the latest craze at UW-Parkside this fall. 1999. What is disc golf? Disc golf is played much like traditional golf. Instead of a ball and clubs, players use a Frisbee. The sport started in the 1970s, and shares golf's objective of completing each hole in the fewest number of strokes, or in the case of disc golf, fewest number of throws. A.disc is thrown from a tee area to a target, which is the "hole." The hole can be one of a number of disc golf targets; the most common is called a Pole Hole, an elevated metal basket.

He goes on to explain, "Users connected to it over the internet create and change the environment as they interact within it in real time." The basic MOO language and database were developed by Xerox about ten years ago. MOOs are used for a great variety of purposes, ranging from on-line instruction to pure socializing. The UW-Parkside MOO has had over a thousand regular users, about a third of them being UW -Parkside students. It also includes people from over a dozen countries. He has taught two classes entirely on-line using the Parkside MOO. "This semester all of my classes are using it, with varying degrees of success, to post to a class bulletin board and to access sample test results." MOO is now in its third year of operation, and can be reached at http://moo.uwp.edu:8000. For more information, contact Professor Robert Canary in the English Department at (414) 595-2525.

Titled "The Progressive Era," it covers the state's growth from 1893 to 1915, and is one of six volumes chronicling the History of Wisconsin. It has been added to the State Historical Collection. Buenker spent 11 years researching and studying the state's history for the book. The progressive era of Wisconsin interests Buenker because our's is one of the most progressive states in U.S. history. Buenker thinks Wisco;'sin is the number one state to research due to the numerous amount of changes that occurred during this era. Political reform, educational, and income tax changes are just a few of the many lasting changes covered in this volume. "It was a period in which the state had the greatest notoriety, the greatest respect throughout the nation," said Buenker. A full chapter in "The Progressive Era" is dedicated to The "Wisconsin Idea." There is no clear definition given for this area in history according to Buenker, therefore he felt that.he should elaborate on this division of history. The combination of research and study in this field that Buenker has done gives his students an abundant source of information. The information he gathers outside of his classroom material also is a rich resource for his students to tap. Buenker conducted his study at the UWParkside's Research Center and at the State Historical Society Library. Teaching is an opportunity for him to let his knowledge and his classroom text reinforce one another. "The Progressive Era" can be found at most local book stores including Schwartz's, Barnes and Noble, and The University of Wisconsin Press store. It also is available at the UWParkside's library. ~,.l!.~,.".,fi.t""..'e" "e" "." "." "." "e" "e"-"."-"."..-"e" "." ".1., "1,, "'."..."- ." "." "." "e" "."..."-."

What is it this time? One-hundred and twenty five fourth and fifth grade kids taking a tour of the UW-Parkside campus. Why would such young kids be taking a tour of a college campus, you might ask? They, along with the Communication Senior Seminar class, are participating in a program called "College Bound". The program is designed to stress the importance of education, but also to give children the opportunity to learn about college at a young age. Many students don't receive general knowledge about college until they enter high school, so learning at a young age can be beneficial The goal of the program is to inform young children about the benefits of education, and how doing well in school now will benefit them in the future by increasing their chances of gelling into college. The Senior Seminar class has visited five classrooms at Mitchell elementary school in Racine over the past five weeks. Different topics were discussed with the children each time, and now it's their turn to visit our school. This is the last visit, and it gives the children a chance to experience first-hand what they have been learning about.

In college campus dining halls, students tend to overeat at the buffets. The featured foods there are not necessarily nutritious and low in fat. "Grilled foods, pizza, and sub sandwiches are the favorites at UW-Parkside," said Kevin Slowik, head of UW-Parkside's food service. "The nutritional breakdown of our recipes are available although I'd say the athletes are the only ones who request them." Oftentimes, busy students choose convenient foods and fast-food restaurants as quick and inexpensive meals. "I usually have donuts and coffee in the morning," Mile Stankovic said. In order to assure a healthy diet, there are seven dietary guidelines you should follow. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human Services issued the following dietary guidelines. First: eat a variety of foods. Choose serving from each group on the Food Guide Pyramid. Variety provides the necessary nutrients and other substances needed for good health. "I eat healthy which helps me concentrate and gives me the extra energy I need to do my schoolwork," Stankovic said. "Usually Ieat healthy, especially at breakfast," jessica Charon said, "but my downfall is at finals when 1 tend to drink more coffee to stay alert." Nicole Morano also confessed to drinking coffee and eating candy around finals but said, "Usually, I do not eat healthy." Second: balance the food you eat with physical activity; maintain or improve your weight. Regular physical activity keeps you from becoming overweight and also increases one's energy level. Avoid crash diets. Instead. eat less fat, control portion sizes, and increase physical activity. Third: choose a diet with plenty of vegetables, grain products, and fruits. These foods provide minerals, vitamins, dietary fiber, complex carbohydrates and other substances important for good health. Slowik said two soups and vegetables are offered daily in the UW-Parkside cafeteria besides vegetarian dishes, pastas and stir fries. Fourth: choose a diet low in fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. Some dietary fat is needed in our diet; good choices are polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats found in nuts, fish and vegetable oils. Avoid the intake of trans-fat found in deep-fried fast foods and other products made with hydrogenated vegetable oils. High cholesterol intake can be a problem for some people so cut back on animal foods that contain cholesterol. Fifth: choose a diet moderate in sugars. Diets high in simple sugars promote tooth decay and supply calories but few nutrients. Sugar can be an additional energy source for those who are active, but to maintain a healthy body weight sugars should be consumed in moderation. "I usually eat candies like Skittles and Nerds for quick energy," said Chad Colombari. Sixth: choose a diet moderate in salt and sodium. Although sodium is an essential nutrient, it is only needed in small amounts. A high amount of sodium has been linked to high blood pressure and an increase in calcium loss that contributes to osteoporosis. Seventh: if you drink alcoholic beverages, do so in moderation. Alcohol provides only calories with few, if any, nutrients. Alcohol should only be consumed in moderation, with meals, and when consumption puts no one at risk. To summarize the guidelines, college students should choose low-fat, low-calorie, nutrient-dense foods such as vegetables, grains, fruits, lean protein sources, and non-fat dairy products rather than sugar and sweets, fatty foods, and alcoholic beverages. Will good nutrition make you smarter? By following the guidelines, you are going to have more energy. When you have more energy, you will study more productively, and for a longer time. These positives are in all students' favor. Memories of Spring Breaks Past Tiffany Stopa Deciding where to go for spring break this year was tough. There were so many great places to go. Some destinations, of course, are better than others. In years past, I've gone to Vail, CO., but this year I decided to go to Key West, FL. Both are great vacation destinations. Two years ago, I went skiing in Vail, Colorado, one of the best places to ski out west. Vail is nestled in a valley about 200 miles from Denver. I decided the best and cheapest way to get to Vail was to fly into Denver and take a bus to V.ail. The views that I experienced during the drive were breathtaking. When I went to Vail I went with a couple friends who were very good skiers. We rented a condo and split the cost. It is cheaper to rent a condo because then it's not necessary to go out to dinner every night and costs can be split. My travel agent found my friends and I a condo that best fit our budget. Some nice hotels I saw were the Vail Racket Ball Club, The Christiana, and The Vail Lodge. Ski lift tickets were the most expensive part of the trip. We spent about $40 a day on lift tickets. The City of Vail offers a free bus service to all destinations in the city which we took advantage. From fast food to five-star restaurants, there were a variety of places to eat. Shopping in Vail was exquisite and expensive but I found some unique gifts for my family. Key West was a great place to go and relax and just take things "day-byday. Its a half-hour plane ride from Miami, but flight into Key West are scarce because the airport is so small. My family and I decided to fly instead of drive because there's not much to see on the way. "The Florida Keys comprise one of the most diverse eco-systems in the world and provide us with such natural beauty that it's hard to imagine the Keys being a part of the real world," comments john Criswell author of the Key West Vacation Guide. Surprisingly, white sand beaches are hard to come by in Key West so we stayed at a hotel with a pool. The island was formed by coral reef, so there were only a couple of sand beaches available for swimming. We also went snorkeling and scuba diving through all of the magnificent reefs. Hotel prices can range from $60 to $300 dollars a night depending on if it's a condo or hotel room. We stayed at the Key West Hilton, a very nice hotel. The room rates there ran between $175 to $350. The Hilton was in dose walking distance or a short scooter ride to all the points of interest. Duval Street through downtown Key West is about seven blocks of popular bars, restaurant, and shops of all sorts. There were many beach shops, clothing stores, and souvenir stores. Some popular bars and great restaurants that we went to were Fat Tuesdays, Margaritavile, and Sloppy [oes. There were also many different fast food restaurants to choose from. Christine james, a college student, said, "I have never had such a fun spring break before and I would defiantly come back, the nightlife was a blast." Historical Key West was also very interesting. There was a trolley to the historical points of interest such as Ernest Hemingway's house. The beautiful architecture and flowers were very unique and greatly appreciated. These two destinations that I have visited were fun and enjoyable. I would definitely consider traveling back to both of them. I do have to say that I did like the sunny and warm atmosphere of Key West better than Vail. Now maybe you have some ideas for next spring break and just remember its never too early to start planning for next year. AnoOWlciag for Fall 1999: Schedule classes when you want!

Sugar can be an additional energy source for those who are active, but to mamtain a healthy body weight sugars should be consumed in moderation. "I usually eat candies like Skittles and Nerds for quick energy," said Chad Colombari. Sixth: choose a diet moderate in salt and sodium. Although sodium is an essential nutrient, it is only needed in mall amounts. A high amount of sodium has been linked to high blood pressure and an increase in calcium loss that contributes to osteoporosis. Seventh: if you drink aJcoholic beverages, do so in moderation . Alcohol provides only calories with few, if any, nutrients. Alcohol should only be consumed in moderation, with meals, and when consumption puts no one at risk. To summarize the guidelines, college students should choose low-fat, low-calorie, nutrient-dense foods such as vegetables, grains, fruits, lean protein sources, and non-fat dairy products rather than sugar and sweets, fatty foods, and alcoholic beverages. Will good nutrition make you smarter? By following the guidelines, you are going to have more energy. When you have more energy, you will study more productively, and for a longer time. These positives are in all students' favor. Memories 01 Spring Breaks Past Tiffany Stopa Deciding where to go for spring break this year was tough. There were so many great places to go. Some destinations, of course, are better than others. In years past, I've gone to Vail, CO., but this year I decided to go to Key West, FL. Both are great vacation destinations. Two years ago, I went skiing in Vail, Colorado, one of the best places to ski out west. Vail is nestled in a valley about 200 miles from Denver. I decided the best and cheapest way to get to Vail was to fly into Denver and take a bus to Vail. The views that I experienced during the drive were breathtaking. When I went to Vail I went with a couple friends who were very good skiers. We rented a condo and split the cost. It is cheaper to rent a condo because then it's not necessary to go out to dinner every night and costs can be split. My travel agent found my friends and I a condo that best fit our budget. Some nice hotels I saw were the Vail Racket Ball Club, The Christiana, and The Vail Lodge. Ski lift tickets were the most expensive part of the trip. We spent about $40 a day on lift tickets. The City of Vail offers a free bus service to all destinations in the city which we took advantage. From fast food to five-star restaurants, there were a variety of places to eat. Shopping in Vail was exquisite and expensive but I found some unique gifts for my family. Key West was a great place to go and relax and just take things ·day-byday. Its a ha-If-hour plane ride from Miami, but flight into Key West are scarce because the airport is so small. My family and I decided to fly instead of drive because there's not much to see on the way. "The Florida Keys comprise one of the most diverse eco-systems in the world and provide us with such natural beauty that it's hard to imagine the Keys being a part of the real world," comments John Criswell author of the Key West Vacation Guide. Surprisingly, white sand beaches are hard to come by in Key West so we stayed at a hotel with a pool. The island was formed by coral reef, so there were only a couple of sand beaches available for swimming. We also went snorkeling and scuba diving through all of the magnificent reefs. Hotel prices can range from $60 to $300 dollars a night depending on if it's a condo or hotel room. We stayed at the Key West Hilton, a very nice hotel. The room rates there ran between $175 to $350. The Hilton was in close walking distance or a short scooter ride to all the points of interest. Duval Street through downtown Key West is about seven blocks of popular bars, restaurant, and shops of all sorts. There were many beach shops, clothing stores, and souvenir stores. Some popular bars and great restaurants that we went to were Fat Tuesdays, Margaritavile, and Sloppy Joes. There were also many different fast food restaurants to choose £rem. Christine James, a college student, said, "I have never had such a fun spring break before and I would defiantly come back, the nightlife was a blast." Historical Key West was also very interesting. There was a trolley to the historical points of interest such as Ernest Hemingway's house. The beautiful architecture and flowers were very unique and greatly appreciated. These two destinations that I have visited were fun and enjoyable. I would definitely consider traveling back to both of them. I do have to say that I did like the sunny and warm atmosphere of Key West better than Vail. Now maybe you have some ideas for next spring break and just remember its never too early to start planning for next year. --I -1".-'23.I-.rIl2-2.11-11-------;:;~~.I.I....~'. lilJ~l.'."'~~...,- There is NOlhing 10 do al Parkside on Ihe Weekends Students find creative ways to tudy during the annual piano sale ponsored by Bob Kames Piano Company out of Milwaulkee on Sunday, April 11. Set up for the event took place a week before the sale which gave tud n an pportuni ty to experience the mu ical gratification of playing the piano. In some cases, tud nts had a chance to c mpose pieces. Photos by Daniel Yaris Valerie Funk Communications 250 As the weekend comes closer for UWParkside, the parking lots start to get empty. The reason for this phenomenon is not that all of the students are going on a weekend vacation or that all of their cars are in the shop. The reason why the parking lots are empty is because there is nothing to do here on the weekends. UW-Parkside weekends bring boredom to students. As Shauna Ronchetto stated, "Students need a place to go on the weekends and Parkside's campus just doesn't cut it." There are basically only four facilities open to students on the weekends: The library is opened on Sat. from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Sun. from noon to 6 p.m. The cafeteria which closes down on Fri. afternoon at 1 p.m., is opened from 11 rn, to 1 p.m. on Sat. and Sun., and The Grill is opened from 4:30 to 7 p.m. on Fri. and Sun., while only staying open from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Sat. With hours and limitations like this students are basically forced to eat according to a very confined menu. The Rec Center, located on the 02 level of the Union, is also open on the weekends from 3 p.m. to 12 a.m. on Sat. and 3 to 11 p.m. on Sun. Even though they hold restricted hours there is plenty to there if bowling, playing pool, and video games is what someone is looking to do on the weekends. Not only are all other facilities, such as Hard Hat Cafe, Sub Connection, and the Career and Advising Centers closed, which are usually open to students during the week but clubs usually don't even meet on the weekends. Pool parties and Rec Center club nights are reserved for weekdays and the only movies that are offered are in the Foreign Film Series. Aerobic swim and regular class-- es are only opened to students during the week also. Even if these activities were opened on the weekends some students don't feel like that is enough. Ryan Ellifson stated, '1wish that there were more movies on Sat. night and it wouldn't hurt if there was a bar on campus." DeAnn Stone, director of Residence Life, agrees that the lack of things to do on the weekends is a concern and is currently being looked at and modified. So far there has been a trip to the Chicago Art Institute, and a trip to the lmax Theater. There are also Midnight Madness nights, which involves bowling being offered at the Rec Center on certain Sat. nights during the year. Not to mention Greek organizations offering dances periodically and movies are still shown at the theater on Fri. nights. So, in retrospect, there are things to do here on the weekends. But until there more of a variety, students are going to have to continue cramming any extracurricular activities into their already busy weekday schedules. The Dogma Controversy Chris Summy Every once in a while we hear about a film that very serious controversies attached to it, especially when the subject is about religion. In 1978, South Carolina senator Strom Thurmond tried to get the Monty Python satire, The Life of Brian, banned in the U.S. because of its content (He later changed his mind.). In 1988, there was a furor over Martin Scorsese's Last Temptation of Christ, a drama about how a human Jesus Christ (Willem Dafoe) had to make a decision over whether or not to die for our sins (The flames were fueled over a scene in which Jesus dreams about have sex and the casting of David Bowie in an important religious role (his androgynous past is considered blasphemy to quite a few people}). And in 1995, there was Priest, a drama about a gay Catholic priest. Take a wild guess about where the problem lies. This year, hopefully corning to a theater near you, the controversial film is Dogma, written and directed by Kevin Smith (Clerks, Mallrats, and Chasing Amy). It is a religious sa tire abou t a local hero (Linda Fiorentino) who is joined by a band of misfits to save humanity from renegade angels Bartelby (Ben Affleck) and Loki (Matt Damon). Each traveler has their own set of beliefs but they to confront their faith and find their own relationships with God. Since filiming started early last year, the Catholic League protested the movie, saying that it makes light of Catholicism in a flippant and crude fashion. Many religious organizations plan on protesting it if it gets released (the company that releases it will not be spared either). Which is why Disney-owned Miramax Films, the company that planned on showing it, may be looking foe a new distributor. It seems that Disney is nervous about it and are pressuring Bob and Harvey Weinstein (the men who run Miramax, named after their parents Miriam and Max) to sell it. After the run-in with the Southern Baptists over Gay Day at Disney World, Disney chairman Michael Eisner would like. to keep his company's reputation as a family-friendly place. It is not the first time Miramax has given Disney a head-ache. It was the studio that released the controversial Priest, as well as Pulp Fiction and Trainspotting. But at the same time, Miramax has also released some grea t flicks such as The Crying Game, The Grifters, The Piano, The English Patient, Good Will Hunting, and Shakespeare in Love. It is considered the best place to go if you want to make a great movie. The Weinsteins believe in their work and Dogma is no exception. Just recently, they bought the flick from Disney for $10 million and plan on releasing it with a non- Disney studio. Considering this is not the first time they did that (they did it with Kids), they have a lot of guts. I can understand some of the complaints about Dogma, however. It does not sound like an easy movie at all. Here are some of the following highlights: 1. Linda Fiorentino's character works at an abortion clinic. 2. Salma Hayek plays a sexy Muse. 3. Chris Rock is a trash talking 13th Apostle. 4. Alanis Morisette plays a Skeeball obsessed God. 5. There is a demon that is literally made out of crap. 6. The Church in the movie has a "Catholicism Wow!" campaign with a smiling Buddy Christ as spokesman (instead of being nailed at the cross, he offers a thumbs-up salute). 7. Jay and Silent Bob, regulars from Kevin Smith movies, play the two prophets. It seems obvious tha t this film is not for everybody. But at the same time, why don't we see it first before we try to get it banned? Personally, I can't stand it when a few people feel the need to shove their views down everybody else's throats. Supposedly, Kevin Smith is a faithful Catholic who wanted to make this movie to show his belief in humanity and God. If it's true, then what should we be afraid of? It should be important to keep an open mind about this because it might tum out to be entertaining. if you don't want to watch it because you find it offensive, fine, that's no problem. But don't decide for everybody else, OK? --- - • 8 1111121.11,1122.11 ----· -- There is Nothing to do at Parkside on the eeke d Communicati ns A come UWParkside, tart g t all th hop.

Quick question: What do The Buluiorth, and have in common? Answer: They have relatively young women paired up with men who need Viagra. Robert Redford (61) and Kristen Scott Thomas (37), Warren Beatty (61) and Halle Berry (30), Michael Douglas (54) and Gwyneth Paltrow (26), Harrison Ford (56) and Anne Heche (28). Just like real life, right? This gets rather infuriating! The idea of the age discrepancies are showcased to highlight the maturity in an older person in the younger generation, studios say. Bull, I say. If that was true, then how often have you seen older women paired with really young men? There aren't too many examples of that. Here's a example. When casting was made on Batman Forever, Rene Russo was picked to play the shrink who analyzes Bruce Wayne (Michael Keaton). But when Keaton dropped out and was replaced by Val Kilmer, Russo was dropped in favor of Nicole Kidman. It seems that Russo was too old for Kilmer (Yeah, a whole four years!). was done a year after she played Clint Eastwood's love interest in (there's a twenty-five year difference between Eastwood and Russo). And it doesn't seem to be gelling better. spring's stars Sean Connery as a robber and Catherine Zeta-Jones as his love interest. Considering that Connery is pushing 70 and Jones is around 30, what's wrong with this picture? And look at Julia Roberts. She seems to be making a career of in her movies. There were 17 years between her and Richard Gere in (and she's reteaming with him in this summer's 27 years with Nick Nolte in 14 with Dennis Quaid in 14 with John Malkovich in Mary and 17 years with Ed Harris in was a rarity because jier male co-stars were closer to her age. Ironically, Goldie Hawn's character uses Sean Connery as a reference in when she is upset about her failing acting career. She is upset that she has to playa hideous mother and says that Connery could play her daughter's boyfriend. She also gets plastic surgery in order to look young because she,complains there are only three types of roles for women: babe (sexy), district attorney (drab), and Driving Miss Daisy (old bag). Got it right on the money, didn't she? Hvpe: ENOUGH!! Chris Summy So here we are, a month before the release of Episode I: The hype has been building ever since George Lucas announced he was going to make prequels to the Star Wars trilogy two years ago. Frankly, I am getting so $O/o#*ingsick and tired of hearing about it. As we all know, the movie will be released on May 19 in the best movie theaters around the country so we can get the full effect. Personally, I am looking forward to seeing it because I love I went to see the Special Editions when they were released two years ago. Even though I have all three of the original movies on tape, I had never seen them on the big screen. So I went and had a great time. Let's face it, you haven't lived until to you see them in a theater! And yes, I am glad tha t there will be new movies in the future. But at the same time, we have these dorks on the Internet who want to spoil everything for us by showing sorts of key parts of the movie and telling us what the plot may be like. Why do some people feel the need to try to ruin the fun for all of us? I don't know about any of you, but I would like-to be surprised when I see it for the first time (with all due honesty, I do plan on seeing it several times!). I also have heard about people who are already camping out to get tickets. A month early? Get a freaking life! I'd like to see it on the first day but there's a limit to what I plan on doing about it. That obsessed I am not! And I'll be seriously pissed off some jerks keep buying tickets for lots of people for every single showing SQ that no else get gets to see it for a long if I realize that is a major phenomenon. It's a name that means a tremendous amount to billions of people around the world, me included. Hopefully, seeing Episode I will be a great experience for everyone involved. But let's remember an important tip: Hype can ruin a movie. Even a name such as isn't safe. After all, look what happened to Godzilla last year. anyone want the same thing to happen to one of the most beloved names in history? is a highly anticipated event but we have to remember to keep our feet on the ground. Then after we watch it, we can go crazy! May the force be with of you!

Considering the price of tickets and snacks nowadays, I do not expect to be disappointed. If the movie sucks, then it's my fault for having bad judgement. But sometimes the experience is bad because of the audience. One thing I hate are nuisances in the theater. Here are three problems I have had to deal with: 1. JERKS WHO CAN'T KEEP THEIR BIG MOlffHS SHlIT- I remember seeing Phenomenon three years ago at the Orpheum and discovered there were three kids in the front who kept talking throughout the whole movie. Many people in the audience kept telling them to be quiet but they wouldn't do it until they were GVE IFE LASMA. $$$ CASH PAYMENTS $$$ EARN UP TO AND OVER PER MONTH Plasma Donor Center Of Kenosha, Inc. 6212 22nd Ave. • Kenosha, WI (414) 654-1366 Hours: Mon. s Wed. 8:30-3:30 Tues. & Thurs. 9:30-4:30 Fri. 8:00-2:30' sat. 8:00-1 :30 People Helping People For Life and laser poinlers finally kicked out. And that didn't happen until the last third of the flick. And then there was the time I watched Scream at Cinema 5. AIl during that movie, there was a lot of talking. The worst part of it all was when Henry Winkler appeared in it. As a lot of people know, he played Fonzie on Happy Days. Everybody in the theater knew that. Unfortunately most of the audience couldn't keep it to themselves. This went on for about five minutes before I finally shouted out, "All right, we know he's Fonzie! Now shut up about it!" Even then, there were three girls behind me who kept talking. I was tempted to throw my soda at them but I thought better of it. 2. LITTLE KIDS WHO DON'T KNOW ANY BETTER-I will probably never again see a family flick until I have kids of my own. I made this decision after the experience of seeing the double feature of Mighty Joe Young and A Bug's Life. There was a little kid behind me who couldn't keep quiet until he was taken out of the theater. But when he came back a few minutes later, he kept on talking. This kepthappening all through the double feature. Never again! It's worse when little kids are brought into movies with a PG-13 or R rating. I remember putting my feet on the chair ahead of me while I watching Scream 2 (Okay, so this is bad etiquette. I didn't make noise about it!). The guy across, from me turned to me and said, "00 you mind?" So I put my feet down but I didn't understand what was the complaint. I didn't see anyone in front of me. I thought his coat might have been there so I looked over. I found a four-year-old boy there instead. Why in the hell was he there at an R-rated movie that violence in it? I remember thinking, "That's just great! That kid will probably have nightmares tonight. And if he keeps watching these type of movies and decides to kill people, his parents will probably blame the movies for the way he turned out. And political opportunists like William Bennett and the Christian Coalition will probably use this to call for more censorship!" 3. THE RED LASERS- Some dorks think it's cool to flash these things during the show, even though it pisses everybody off. This happened during The Water Boy and The Rage: Carrie 2. At The Rage, somebody behind me said, "Why don't you shove that thing up your ass?" I thought this was a good suggestion. The lasers are rapidly becoming banned because of the frequency of these occurances. This is one law I support whole-heartedly! People go to the movies because it is fun. It is not fun when some people spoil it. I'll say this right now, if any of these problems occur when Star Wars hits the theaters, there will be a lot of people planning on opening up a can of whoopass on the jerks responsible.

This kept happening all through the double feature. Never again! It's worse when little kids are brought into movies with a PG-13 or R rating. I remember putting my feet on the chair ahead of me while I watching Scream 2 (Okay, so this is bad etiquette. I didn't make noise about it!). The guy across from me turned to me and said, "Do you mind?" So I put my feet down but I didn't understand what was the complaint. I didn't see anyone in front of me. I thought his coat might have been there so I looked over. I found a four-year-old boy there instead. Why in the hell was he there at an R-rated movie that violence in it? I remember thinking, "That's just great! That kid will probably have nightmares tonight. And if he keeps watching these type of movies and decides to kill people, his parents will probably blame the movies for the way he turned out. And political opportunists like William Bennett and the Christian Coalition will probably use this to call for more censorship!" 3. THE RED LASERS- Some dorks think it's cool to flash these things during the show, even though it pisses everybody off. This happened during The Water Boy and The Rage: Carrie 2. At The Rage, somebody behind me said, "Why don't you shove that thing up your ass?" I thought this was a good suggestion. The lasers are rapidly becoming banned because of the frequency of these occurances. This is one law I support whole-heartedly! People go to the movies because it is fun. It is not fun when some people spoil it. I'll say this right now, if any of these problems occur when Star Wars hits the theaters, there will be a lot of people planning on opening up a can of whoopass on the jerks responsible.

It will be playing at the Union Cinema on April 28 and April 30 at 8 p.m. It will be $1 for UWParkside students and $2 for non-students. At the April 28 showing, the first 19 people will get a free movie poster. The following available posters are: Forces of Nature, two from Amistad, From Dusk Till Dawn, Scream 2, Boogie Nights, Red Corner, Blast From the Past, The Corruptor, The Hi-La Country, Fargo, The Rugrats, James Bond, He Got Game, Meet Joe Black, Practical Magic, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, Out of Sight, and As Good As It Gets. In the comedy My Best Friend's .Wedding, julia Roberts plays a single 30-year-old with a best friend (Dermot Mulroney) who she has always had a crush on. They had agreed if they weren't married by the time they hit 30, they would marry each other. So one day, julia's character finds a message on her answering machine from her best friend. It seems he is getting married alright. To a major hotty (Cameron Diaz-her hair is clean this time!)! And this woman is rather nervous about her fiance's friend. She heard a lot of about her but wants her to play an important part in the wedding. While she is the daughter of the owner of the Chicago White Sox, she is rather flaky, there is a hilarious scene of her singing karaoke ... badly! While she can be like jello, she has heard a lot about this woman in her future husband's life and is afraid she will lose him to her. And there is cause for concern. julia's character wants her best friend in the worst possible way. She will do anything to wreck the wedding so she enlists a gay friend (Rupert Everett) to pose as her boyfriend in order to throw the couple off the track. But her phony boyfriend is a realist, convinced that his confused friend is going to make a fool out of herself. His mission, if he chooses to accept it, is to try to prevent humiliation and pain from happening. The CorrulJlor ChrisSurnmy Hong Kong action star Chow Yun- Fat made his American movie debut with The Replacement Killers opposite Mira Sorvino. It had its moments but it was slow and Chow had a problem with his English. In his new movie, The Corruptor, he solves both problems with better English and a more exciting flick. He plays Chen, a detective in the Chinatown part of New York. His job is compromised by his relationship with a gangster (he found he could accomplish more if he worked with him) who is at war with a rival mobster. The gangster is in charge of the Fukinese Dragons, a Chinese gang that extorts pay-offs from businesses. For the ones that don't pay, the people inside get killed. Chen tries his best to stop the damage and gets help from a rookie named Wallace (Mark Wahlberg). Wallace sticks out in Chinatown because he is white and is gung-ho to stop crime. He decided that by going through Chinatown, a gold shield will be inevitable. His life is also troubled by his father, a crooked cop who owes money to gamblers. He get in the same position as Chen's, having to compromi e himself to get things done. So they collide with one another. But the gangster is not a person to deal with. His specialiti are prostitution and gambling, claiming that as long as the demand is good, there will be services. But he also imports people trying to escape repression in China in crowded boats and then expects payments by prostitution. If they refuse, they end up dead. Eventually Ch n and Wallace decide to work out their differences in order to top the gangster. This movie is better than The Replacement Killers because it has more action. There is a great chase scene in which Chen and Wallace pur-me two of the gangster' men all through New York, made more brutal because the bad guy shoot at anything to try to get away (some innocent bystanders are killed as a result). All in all, this is not a movie 10 sleep through. Lite: Murphv and lawrence make great duo Chris Summy The release of this movie contained two question marks: Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence. For Eddie, the question was whether or not he could avoid a losing streak similar to the one he suffered through for half a decade (Harlem Nights, Another 48 Hours, Boomerang, The Distinguished Gentleman, Beverly Hills Cop III). After all, the failure of Holy Man could have been the start of something bad. For Marlin, it was whether or not his movie would be in the headlines instead of his personallife. He has had a hit TV show and movie success (Bad Boys, A Thin Line Between Love and Hate, Nothing to Lose) but he also went through a painful divorce, his Martin co-star suing him for sexual harassment, and a bizarre incident in which he held up traffic with a gun while completely naked. Life answers these question with a positive response for the two stars. They play two New York men who are wrongly found guilty of murder in Mississippi and have to serve a life sentence for it. In 1932, Ray Gibson is a con man and Claude Banks is a straight banker who both owe money to a mobster (Rick james). To payoff' their debt, Ray and Claude, who had never met each other until they both found themselves in a predicament, have to travel to Mississippi to pick up some bootleg liquor. They accidently stumble upon a murder by a racist sheriff and are set up to take the fall. The film mostly lakes place in the prison. After initially taking a 101 of crap from their fellow inmates and the guard (Nick Cassavettes), Ray and Claude fit into the prison population. But they can never accept their sentence because they are innocent. Over the course of sixty years, they try over and over again to break out of jail, only to fail miserably in each attempt. While time passes, Ray and Claude eventually become friends who depend on one another to get through the tough times (and they age convincingly due to the make-up and their voice patterns). However, this movie, although hilarious, contains a major flaw. When viewing this, one might think that prison time would be a lot tougher for Ray and Claude than whal they go through. While I can't imagine it being fun to be confined to one place for the rest of your life, it didn't seem to be hard time at all. Considering that this starts off in the 1930's South, it does lead to a credibility problem. Although they are victims of racism, in reality, they could have had it a lot worse. (While we're at it, the movie poster is also rather uncomfortable to look at because it looks hornophobic.) But in the end, the movie is enjoyable because of two certain people: Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence. They are a great team playing off each other's complaints about one another. Hopefully, they will work together again in the future. It would be a crying shame if they didn't. - MUSIC•MOVIES•MUSIC•MOVIES•MUSIC•MOVIES•MUSIC•MC Ml BBSI lri11nll's WBlllling ChrisSwnmy For the last PAB movie of the semester, we have My Best Friend's Wedding.

As for people my age or older, Ican only suggest that you put this paper down and go about your hunting and gathering, tor nothing in this story can possibly interest you. Remember the mastodon hunt? Those were the good days, eh? Now pay attention, children, for the fate of our country depends on you. Several weeks ago, upon hearing that Elizabeth Dole was thinking about nmning in the upcoming presidential election, Idecided to run against her. I was planning on becoming the first ~ I Italian-American American president, r but today I found that a clause in the American Constitution bars me from ever running for the presidency of the United States. It is a sad, sad fact, but I must accept its truth with dignity: I don't have what it takes to be an American president. No, there's nothing physically wrong with me, only that American presidents must be American-born citizens, and Ihappen to be a naturalized paesano. So, why should my problems be of any interest to you, my fellow n n ! Americans? Well, as you all know, Italian-Americans are very passive about sexual concerns, and since the last Washington scandal involved sex, I thought that, perhaps, I might have been able to straighten things out in the Oval Office. My hope was to bring back the good old days of politics-- the time when political statements made by presidential hopefuls meant something more than just sexually charged whatnots, the time when a saying such as "Make my day!" was not a presidential request; the time when statements such as "speak softly and carry a big stick" and "I cannot tell a lie" were not inspired by the id, the time when presidential runs were not three-legged races-but I can't because I'm a naturalized paesano. And that is why I want you to do it for me. What do I have against Elizabeth Dole? Nothing, absolutely nothing. fact, I think that a president of the female sort might just be what this country needs right now. No, I have nothing against Aunt Elizabeth; it's Uncle Bob I'm worried about. As you all know, shortly after a cancerous growth was removed from a certain area, Bob (Flagpole) Dole gleefully announced that he was experimenting with a "wonderful drug," a papa's little helper that had Every WEDNESDAY LADIES NIGHT Ladies drink FREEl!

New YOI'k DJ been developed specifically for Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones but that, regrettably, had to be used on others because doctors discovered that the drug wouldn't work unless the user had at least one pint of blood. Bob Dole's announcement prompted his wife to consider a run for the presidency, and that smells fishy to me. Coincidence, you say? I don't think so. It's a right wing conspiracy to do away with Keith Richards. I should've known that something was up when Bob Dole changed his slogan from "I just can't win" to "I can't get no satisfaction," but I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was. Only recently I've discovered that Dole is being paid millions to promote Viagra, a product which, if used mproperly, is likely to create a stronger strain of the Slick Willy virus. Now, we all know what happened the last time this virus spread through the White House, right? And how many of you know how much we spent on trying to develop a vaccine for it? My guess is that we spent about a billion of taxpayers' dollars, but that's beside the point. The point is that we could've used that !poney to develop a pill for Keith Richards.

The trees, shrubs, and terrain changes located in and around the fairways provide challenging obstacles for the golfer. Finally, the " putt" lands in the basket and the hole is completed. Disc golf shares the same joys and frustrations of traditional golf, whether it's sinking a long putt or hitting a tree halfway down the fairway. There are a few differences. Disc golf rarely requires greens fee, you probably won't need to rent a cart, and you never get stuck with a bad tee time. Who plays disc golf? Disc golf can be played from school age to old age, making it a great lifetime fitness sport.

Disc golf provides upper and lower body conditioning, aerobic exercise, and promotes a combination of physical and mental abilities while presenting very little risk of physical injury.

Performances also will be given April 24 and 30 and May 1, at 7:30 p.m., with a matinee on April 29, at 10 a.m. Since its premiere in 1938, "Our Town," which tells the story of pre-World War I America through the eyes of main characters George Gibbs and Emily Webb, has been presented to countless audiences. But director Joel Murray says UW-Parkside audiences can expect a fresh experience. "We're switching the setting from New Hampshire to Wisconsin, people from the community will be part of the cast along with students, and each night's performance will be introduced by a different community or University leader. This is being done to give the play a 'hometown' feel," said Murray. "Plus, we're going to give the audience what we think is a deli- . dous eyeful in our visual interpretation of the play. This is our way of saying there are new things to see, feel, and contemplate." The cast of "Our Town" will feature, Simon Jon Provan as George, and Allison Phillips as Emily. Supporting players include Timothy Bohn, Elizabeth Brouillette, Katie Dane, Rick Ditter, Sam Goeb, Gil Gonzalez, Dan Grzeskowiak, Elizabeth Hurlbut, Brad Kostreva, Jillian La Vinka, Katie Liddicoat, Kathleen Noodwang, Ami Orava, Joseph Piirto, John Prochniak, Carey Runyard, Anne Schassberger, Matthew Schnaare, Danielle Schuster, Steve Sorenson, Jenny Toutant, and Emily Wagner, Area residents who will appear on stage are Ben Adams, Tim Alders, Ran:dy Brown, Bob Dawson, Doug Despin, Jill Geb, Alex Harris, Matthew Harris, Virginia Hartley, Brittany Hedges, Kathrine Jensen, and Mary Leigh Snider. Director Murray calls "Our Town" a funny, beautiful, haunting story that touches on life, love, and our perceptions of eternity. "It deals with all the big subjects," Murray said. "It's about learning to live life fully and to avoid getting caught up in the trivial details of existence and survival." Tickets for "Our Town" are just $6 for students and senior and $8 for the community. For more information, call ext. 2564.

"leaves of Grass" Comes to life Nicole Morano The poetry of Walt Whitman will be brought to life April 15, at 7 p.m. in the Overlook Lounge of the OW-Parkside Library, by Dr. Bruce Noll. Dr. Noll, a published poet himself, currently is a professor at the University of New Mexico, will present his program entitled "Pure Grass." It is a dramatic interpretation of Whitman's "Leaves of Grass." Whitman is considered by many to be our greatest poet, our most American poet, and our most international poet. A world historical figure, Whibnan was the first modem and first post-modem poet. In 35 years of work on his book, Whitman issued nine volumes called "Leaves of Grass." Each was different in content. Dr. Noll brings this poet to life by adopting voices, manner, costume, and by his dramatic rendering. This makes Whitman's poetry come alive. The program generally lasts about an hour. After his performance, Noll responds to questions and comments about Whitman. The performance is sponsored by UW-Parkside Lectures, the Fine Arts Committee, the Department of English, and Friends of the Parkside Library.

On Wednesday, March 31, the Parkside Activities Board brought the virtual reality versionof Pac-Man to UW-Parkside. Over 80 students took advantage of Virtuality Pac-Man's three-dimensional maze. Classic, fastpaced, arcade action occurred when players chomped at dots while watching out for the ghosts. The Virtuality Pac-Man game is the '90s version A UW~Parkside student blasts ghosts in the Virtuality Pee-Man game outside Union Square. of the old retro-game with Pac-Man dressed in Oakley sunglasses and Nike shoes. The game consisted of five-minute rounds that two players could play at a time. It was set up outside Union Square. The Special Events team of the Parkside Activities Board sponsored Pac-Man. Erin Jones, team coordinator, said she and her team chose Virtuality Pac- Man because Virtual Reality games have been a hit on our campus before and this is a unique version. "We grew up with Atari and Pac-Man," Erin said. "To be able to step in the game and become him, is like a fantasy come true to some students." Students appeared to agree. All seemed excited that the event was free, and that it took place outside in the summer-like weather. Many students returned to play and to challenge their friends to see who could achieve the higher score. According to Kramer International, Inc., the entertainment company that runs the game on campuses, Virtuality Pac-Man is currently one of the top VR games in the country. It has appeared on college campuses nationwide. ITstudents missed Pac-Man, they will still have the opportunity to take in some more of PAB's events this semester. On April 21, in Union Square, the Nightlife Team sponsors Karaoke from 7 to 9 p.m. On April 23, there's a '60s and '70s dance at Union Square. The novelty team will have another free event on April 28, when they sponsor Blizzard of Bucks, and give UW-Parkside students the chance to win money. "Amistad" will be showing on April 16, and "My Best Friend's Wedding" will show on April 28 and 30. Both be shown in the Union Cinema at 8 p.m. and cost $1 for students.

That means layers of clothing will be vanishing off students, and hiding what a winter of relative inactivity has done to your body won't be so easy. It's a time when students evaluate how they feel about dieting, appearance, and fitness. Body imagegenerated eating disorders are a risk for all studentsfemale and male. That's because when the shorts, tank tops, and snug-fitting T-shirts come out of storage, students start stressing over how they look in those clingy things. Well, Penny Lyter, Wellness Director and Professor of Health and Physical Education of University of Wisconsin-Parkside, has two words of advice for you: "Don't diet!" "Dieting is only an quick fix," Penny emphasized. "A quick fix that doesn't work." Eating disorders, Penny said, develop when there is a "need" to lose weight fast, and when the selfesteem is low due to body appearance. It is important, she added, for students to become aware of the kinds of messages they send to themselves. One way to prevent bad habits is to become more educated about healthy and unhealthy ways of eating and exercising. UW-Parkside provides students with free counseling on health issues.

They participated in the 1st Annual UW-Parkside Hunger Cleanup, a program of the National Student Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness. Volunteers sought sponsors to pledge them money for their services, raising $1000as of Monday. Bill Ager, a sophomore, raised an impressive $200 in addition to recruiting a team of volunteers! Mike Determan, a freshman, and Jennifer Quall, a junior, each ra.ised $loo! We are very grateful for their outstanding fundraising efforts! In addition, we appreciate the generosity of Judy Christman of the University Activities Office, and her Catholic Knights service group, for donating $150 to Hunger Cleanup. More funds will be collected throughout the week and on Saturday, April 17 during the Hunger Cleanup Benefit Concert, 9pmlam in Union Square. Four bands will be performing- 2 from UW-Parkside and 2 from UWWhitewater. (See Hunger Cleanup Benefit Concert article for more details). .

We also value the participation of the countless individuals who signed up. You all make a difference!

Volunteers painted at Salvation Army and Love & Charity Mission; hung drywall at one Habitat site; gutted a second Habitat house; cleared brush and litter from the Victory Garden at Shalom Center in addition to folding laundry; did intense Spring cleaning at Genesis House and SAFEHaven; played games & did craft projects with children at Homeward Bound; and sorted food at Project Emergency. volunteers learned more about each agency's mission and the services they offer and shared this information during the reflection session at lunch, Vince Shafe of the Parkside Adult Student Alliance (PASA) encouraged students not to just feel good about the service they performed on Saturday, but to realize that people face hunger and homelessness every day of the year and urged people to make a commitment to continue helping the community in the future. Bill Ager of PASA said' that his group was committed to pursuing fundraising efforts to purchase a jungle gym for the children at Shalom Center. The group sees the value in kids of every background, income, and circumstance having the opportunity to play in a safe, fun outdoor greenspace. We commend this group for its spirit on Saturday and-its vision for the future. Other highlights of the day included hearing Tom Berger, Executive Director of Project Emergency which is a food distribution center, give the Kickoff address. Among sharing local statistics of.hunger and homelessness, he told a story about starfish being washed up on a beach and the debate that ensued among tow people about the worthiness of throwing the starfish back into the sea given that so many of them came in with the tide, making it seem impossible to rescue al! of them. The person who diligently tossed starfish one by one back into the sea said "I sure made a difference in the life of that one." May this be a r~der to all who aid causes that have staggering statistics and heart wrenching stories such as people who are hungry and homeless... keep up the work, as each of us can help bring peace and stability to the lives of the individuals we help. We are all needed to play our role in ending poverty. - I 1.... 22.llrIl15.1999 II Alumni: where are they now This Week's Protile: Dr. Susan Cabel Meridith [umisko While many of us were dreaming of the tooth fairy when we were little, Susan Cabel was dreaming of becoming a dentist when she grew up. While our dreams of a tooth being worth a lot of money to the tooth fairy may not have come true, Dr. Cabel's dreams have come true. Cabel has had her solo, family dental practice since 1985 in Kenosha. She first became interested in dentistry as a child. She saw how much her own dentist, the late Dr. Riley, enjoyed his profession that she, too, wanted to be a dentist. UW-Parkside's program further developed her interest. Cabel graduated from UWParkside in 1981 with a bachelor of biological sciences degree. She took a minor in chemistry. While a student she "studied very hard" and volunteered at an area emergency room. Of her UW-Parkside experience, Cabel said, "I felt it prepared me for my graduate studies and gave me a good foundation of knowledge for my life." She later added that her family supports UW-Parkside, and her two younger sisters followed her here and received business degrees. Cabel received her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree at Marquette and then opened her own office. She sees an average of eight to ten patients a day. She has evening hours to accommodate the Kenosha residents who work in Chicago and aren't available for any earlier appointments. In case you were wondering, Cabel says her skills are in "diagnosing perio-disease and decay and restoring teeth to a healthy state." Now, I ask you two very important questions: Have you flossed your teeth lately? More importantly, have you been to your dentist lately?

Steve: We would best be known as easy-going. We're not so serious about the band that we overlook school. School is our 1st priority. Interviewer: What inspired you to be in a band? Steve: I bought a bass guitar and played songs on the radio. I wanted to play with others, SO I encouraged my cousin to get a guitar. Interviewer: What is your favorite song to play and why? Steve: My favorite song to play is Shimmer; it's by Fuel. It has a great guitar part and is fun. Interviewer: How can people contact you to play for their special events or for more information?

Personally, my style is influenced by Lauren Hill and Jewel; they're very poetic. Interviewer: How does your band write its songs? Is there one person or do you all share in that effort? Betsy: Almost all of our songs are originals. I write the words first and music follows. Our drummer writes the music first and then the words. Interviewer: What has been your most memorable moment together? Betsy: Harborfest was very memorable. My brother came back from the Air Force to play; only the band knew that he had returned. Matt shouted out, "Is there anyone in the audience who wants to play?" From the crowd, my brother yelled, "Yeah, I dol!" He came up and played the rest of the set. Plus, it was a really big stage. Interviewer: Is there any message you like to convey from your songs? Betsy: Our songs are a reflection of our experience. They convey the emotion that we can't keep inside of us; playing is a great release. We like for people to be able to connect and identify with our feelings about a lot of different issues. Songs can help comfort people and help them to feel like they're understood and not alone. Interviewer: How would you describe or characterize your band?

We're tight. He has also inspired my interests in sports and the way he deals with people. He's not afraid to stand up for what he believes is right. Interviewer: What is your favorite song to play and why? Betsy: My favorite cover song to sing is "Mother, Mother" by Tracy Bonham. It is slow in the beginning, has a nice melody, gets going, then I <cream for the chorus. I also like it because it involves the rest of the band. My favorite original is "RSVP", which my brother wrote. It is the first song that I learned on the guitar. 1 always ask my brother to sing it when he comes back from the Airforce.

Interviewer: Tell us about your band members. Steve: Our lead singer is Neil Buchanan, a junior Business major at UW-Whitewater. He's originally from Union Grove. He's a great guy; he's outgoing, has a great sense of humor, and is easy to get along with. He's our latest addition to the band. He is interested in WWF wrestling, basketball, and quoting lines from movies. Mike Neau is our drummer; he too is originally from Union Grove. He is a freshman computer science major at UW-Milwaukee. His life revolves around the drums; he's passionate about what he plays. He drives 50 miles to work at a new music store in Milwaukee. Mike has really spearheaded this group.

Students are frantically completing last-minute research papers, stressing over impossible arithmetic, and struggling to memorize those important details the night before an exam. Clocks strike a few hours later, forcing the weary from their beds-the only places of peace and sanity. Time to bomb exams within the chamber known as college. This night-before scenario doesn't have to be the case because help is close by. The UW-Parkside Academic Resource Center (PARC), the hero, can save everyone headaches. Tutors can help students with math, music, and writing, among other subjects. "Students [who need help] should not afraid to approach student tutors," said Sirena Cherney, a former 1 Writing Center consultant. "We've had some of the same professors or have been in the same situation. These factors are comforting to tutors." When taught by their peers, students understand course material better, Cherney added. Student tutors have enthusiasm in their subject area, which is usually their major. "Seeing people understand and improve over the semester is wonderful. It's a good feeling to see that you've helped someone. People can write [essays]-they just need to know that they can," said Cherney, who is also an English major. "Sometimes we have to counsel students before tutoring," she continued. "I've had to calm people in tears. Getting out their problems and frustrations clears their minds so they can focus on the work." PARC Coordinator Jaci Haley-Renaud emphasizes the impact of the center's services. "Many students are doing fine, but want to do better. There are tutors available in all levels of all subject areas. Students walk out with answers to their questions and the confidence to try new things. What they learn stays with them. They also have the support of knowing that they can come back," she said.

The structural shell to support the second floor of the building is in the process of being built. A 20 foot ditch has been dug between the Phy-Ed building and the Comm Arts building. This ditch, which was started March 1, connects the Phy-Ed building with the main building. A large pipe will be laid in the ditch, containing hot and cold water lines along with electrical lines. Because this ditch must connect both buildings, a portion of Inner Loop Road will be closed during the process. Between the process of the ditch digging and the laying the pipe, large metal sheets will be laid over the road, enabling cars to drive on it. The road will be closed at some point for a short period of time within the next V\ree months. Signs will be posted to inform drivers of the construction. Linda Draft, Associate Director of Athletics, stated that in October the new locker room will be completed and that construction is scheduled for completion in August of 2000 .

With the mark t doing SO well, clients unrealistically expect it to keep climbing. Walker is also the outgoing 1998 President of the UWParkside Alumni Association Board of Directors. As president, he "tried to represent the alumni association at as many campus events as pos ible" to increase student awareness of the association. Upon graduation, students automatically become members of the association. There are no dues to belong. As the number of members increases, Walker says the association hopes to plan more activities and benefits for alumni. So, as you count your days until you can belong to the alumni association, start saving and investing your money! one-and-a-half years. Her official title is Vice President and Investment Officer. Walker's responsibilities include being portfolio manager handling employee benefit money, and money for individual - from inheritances, proceeds from business sales, and accumulated wealth. She is also the trust company's economist and an equity analyst. Walker has the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation after completing a three-year program for investment professionals. Before arriving at her present job, she owned her own business, a money management firm called "Merit lnvestment Group." Walker uses many skills at ATC including management, people, and analytical skills. She heavily relies on the conomics knowledge she gained at UW-Parkside. Meridith [umisko Do you follow the market? I don't mean the comer market. Do you invest in stocks? Do you even care about the stock market? One UW-Parkside graduate certainly does care. Her name is Sara Walker. Walker graduated from UWParkside in 1981 with bachelor's degrees in both finance and economics. While here she was a member of the accounting club and worked in the business department. Walker says, "I enjoyed the relationships I had with my professors. They enhanced the learning experience because of their accessibility. They seemed to take such an interest in their students." Walker now takes that kind of interest in the market. She has worked at the Associated Trust Company (ATC) in Milwaukee for "Families with children comprise 38% of the homeless population and make up the fastest growing segment of the homeless; "Children account for one-fourth of the homeless population; "On an average night, about onehalf of the homeless population has been homeless for less than three months, and one-quarter for more than three years. UW-Parkside students are well on their way to eliminating hunger and homelessness in their community and around the world. By volunteering for UW-Parkside's first annual Hunger Cleanup on April 10, students and faculty are earning pledges and participating in a three-hour work-athon at a local agency that serves the needs of the hungry and the homeless. At the same time, volunteers will be making n~w friends, bonding with old friends, earning experience and references for resumes, and celebrating the value of life.Work site locations and activities are presently being confirmed. One definite work site location will be S.A.F.E. Haven, which is a home for teenage girls with young children. Because of the resources S.A.F.E.

The University can help students finance college in a way won't put you in debt for the rest of your life. What is this magic financing methods? It's call the Work-Study Program. "Through Work-Study, you earn a regular paycheck from student employment, on- or off-campus, as a way of earning money now to reduce your loan debt later," Buck said. Efforts are currently being made by the Financial Aid 11Iebattle over student fees: who will pav lIIe price=- dents to pay for campus groups that are ideological in nature. Steve McLaughlin, the assistant vice chancellor at UW-Parkside, believes that if this decision is upheld it could be detrimental to the students here, and make the business of campus clubs and organizations more complicated. Ryan Gottsacker, President of PAC, is also concerned about the pending Supreme Court decision. "I'm just worried abu t how this could impact the smaller organizations on campus. [f students have a direct say in where their money goes, the smaller groups could be the first to be negatively effected," Ryan said. I Although this decision could directly effect UWParkside, a large portion of the University's students are unaware of this case, As Kate Budzban, a junior at UW' Parkside said, " I didn't even know that we had student j fees that went to pay for clubs." Deanna Dobsen A court battle regarding the use of mandatory student fees could have a great effect on all colleges, including the University of Wisconsin- Uw-Parkside. The case has been appealed all the way to the Supreme Court, where it now awaits a final decision. This particular student fees case was brought by three Christian students from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, who opposed the fact that their mandatory student fees were going to pay for organizations that were ideological in nature. The United States Court of Appeals ruled in August that the university could not force students to pay for organizations that take part in ideological activities. That decision was then appealed to the Supreme Court.

Vice ChanceJlor William Streeter called the project "A good example of making the best use of all available space and minimizing the amount of new space." Streeter said the work will free areas for student practice and performance, and allow the University to eliminate restrictions on the number of Fine Arts courses that can be taught in Communication Arts. Wisconsin 22nd District State Senator, Building Commission member, and OW-Parkside alumni Robert Wirch called the renovation a good investment in the community and the University. "It's important that the classroom space at UwParkside serves students and that the buildings are attractiv~ to ten and to the community. This renovation accomplishes those goals," Wirch said. ''I've heard people say Uw-Parkside is 'distant' from the community. I think the music and drama programs can act as a bridge betw~n Uw-Parkside and the community, so the buildings there must be functional and attractive.'' Planning for the initial phase of the renovation is expected to be completed by August 2000. If approved, the plans would become reality starting in 2001. I • ISs.121.llrlll.1888 Nursing,.dents glimpse Bigleagues at NIH U you think of it in sports terms, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Md., is the medical equivalent of Yankee Stadium or Lambeau Field. It's "The Big Time;" a venue that generates excitement among the people who work-and want to work-there. A group of University of Wisconsin- Uw-Parkside nursing students, led by Dr. Sandra Underwood, recently spent a week at NIH, touring the research facilities and clinic, the Institutes' National Cancer Institute, and the nearby Howard University Hospital and School of Nursing. For senior nursing student Cyndi Salkowski, being a witness to the Institute's cutting edge research made this a memorable trip. "It was really exciting seeing the research being done," Salkowski said. "We saw how they were doing the different experiments, finding the drugs, then taking right into the hospital for clinical trials. They call it 'Bench to Bedside." To senior Debbie Bradley, the research was fascinating as was the chance to examine moral questions , connected with the human side of research. "We discussed and participated in concepts [at NIH] that we've examined only in text books before. Issues related to ethics and informed consent, survivorship and quality of life. We actually saw it being utilized where before we only read about those concepts," she said. Bradley said watching doctors takmg the time to deal one-on-one with patients, and watching patients deal individually with their illness gave her a dearer sense of the tremendous sacrifice involved in medical research. Can Do, Will Do The University of Wisconsin-Uw- Parkside nursing students consider themselves pioneers. The class, which in addition to SaIkowski and Bradley, included Jennifer and Matthew Leininger, Lindsey Deinhammer, Carol Buse, and Susan Klemp, was the first from UW-Parkside to make the NIH journey. And Lindsey Deinhammer said when they arrived, they were pleasantly surprised by their reception. "People at the national level-the National Cancer Institute, the NIH-they took time for us. I mean directors, administrators, scientists, people who do amazing things, took time to introduce themselves to us and say 'Is there anything I can help you with?' We got to participate, to hear their lectures, to visit their clinics, to meet the patients," she said. "These people are on the cover of Newsweek and Time magazines and I met them," added Susan Klemp. "And they were interested in me as someone to talk to and share knowledge with." And although each of the students would probably admit to being initially intimidated by what one called the "pinnacle of perfection in health care delivery," each expressed confidence that, after spending a week there, they could compete for a job at NIH with students from larger schools. "Absolutely!" said Debbie Bradley. "As Dr. Underwood puts it: 'Can do, will do: Never once did I feel that, oh well, I'm not from one of the top eastern schools. I'm not paying $25,000 a year, so I'm not going to be respected. "They actively recruited us," Debbie added. "We all have the forms if we want to apply. We were given the base UW-Parkside NIH "pioneers" are, from left, Jennifer Leininger, Carol Buse, Lindsey Deinhammer, Cyndi Salkowski, Susan Klemp, Debbie Bradley, and Matthew Leininger pay, what you would start at, a little bit about the benefits. 1 m an they were recruiting." Class members credit Dr, Underwood for instilling in them this positive attitude. "Dr. Underwood has been a great mentor," said senior Jennifer Leininger. "She says 'You can do anything you want to do in nursing. You have the skills, you have knowledge, and all you need is the will and all you have to do is get out there and do it: Jennifer went on to say, "I think we understand that you don't have to be in Bethesda, you don't have to be at the national level. Whatever you do in nursing. it's going to make an impact On people's lives and on health care. Our dass and the people in the school of nursing here at Uw-Parkside are here to make a difference. And nursing is the way to do that. And we're very proud to be part of that:' A Whole New Enthusiasm With most of the students who made the NIH trip scheduled to graduate soon, career questions must now be answered. Whether those careers include working at the National Institutes of Health or on a more local level, the students expressed confidence about their place in health care. "We have received a wonderful foundation with our nursing classes," said Carol Buse, "I know sometimes people say 'Why do you want to be a nurse?' And 1 think the experience of going to the National Institutes of Health reaffirmed why I want to be a nurse." "We have a great'program," added Debbie Bradley. "This school is providing me with the right background, and this experience [going to NIH] showed me that this career does work for me." Jennifer Leininger says her confidence in the future sterns in large part from an excellent teacher and mentor. "We owe all this, and all of Our appreciation and gratitude, to Dr. Underwood. Without her this wouldn't have been possible," Jennifer said. "She believe in her students and she believes that we are the future. And she pushes every little dream that you think is so minor and says you can do it" "I have a whole new enthusiasm, a whole new outlook on the career that I chose," said Susan Klemp of the NfrI trip. "And I'm so proud that J chose this profession after witnessing what I saw there:' -- U'S (omln' ... It'\ Coming... It's Coming .., It's Coming ... It's Coming ... It's Coming ... It's Coming...

It's "The Big Time;" a venue that generates excitement among the people who work-and want to work-th re. A group of University of WisconsinUw- Parkside nursing students, led by Dr. Sandra Underwood, recently spent a week at NIH, touring the r arch facilities and clinic, the Institute ' National Cancer Institute, and th nearby Howard University Hospital and School of Nursing. For senior nursing tud nt Cyndi Salkowski, being a witness to the Institute's cutting edge research made this a memorable trip. "It was really exciting seeing the research being done," Salkowski said. "We saw how they were doing th different experiments, finding th drugs, then taking right into the hospital for clin ical trials. They call it 'Bench to Bedside.'" To sen ior Debbie Bradley, the research was fascinating as was the chance to examine moral questions · connected with the human side of research. "We discussed and participated in ooncepts [at NIH] that w 've examined only in text books before. Is.sues related to ethics and informed consent, survivorship and quality of life. We actually saw it being utilized where before we only read about those concepts," she said. Bradley said watching doctors talcmg the time to deal one-on-one with patient , a nd watching patients deal individually with their illness gave her a cl earer sense of the tremendous sacrifice involved in medical research.

With the "Beyond Uw-Parkside" program, led by Multicultural Affairs Director Blake Dye, that may now be possible. "Beyond Uw-Parkside" is the theme of a the university program designed to encourage and promote career exploration, graduate study, and professional development through internship, mentoring, and research opportunities. Graduate study is something the UW-Parkside Multicultural Affairs department is trying to focus on a little bit more. Dye is currently working with graduate schools across the country to increase access to these schools for students here at UWParkside. The program he's coordinating is the Graduate School Fee Waiver. At this time, application fee waivers are being secured at graduate schools for students of color to apply for advanced . study at no costs to them. The main goal Dye plans on getting our students is to have a major selection of graduate schools across the country to choose from. "Right now we have schools in Iowa, Illinois, and North Carolina that have committed to this program," he said. Dye is asking any faculty or staffer at UW-Parkside who have attended graduate school to give him the names of people he could contact at other schools. He will then try to work with them to set this program up with their institution. Students interested in this particular program must be qualified for regular admission first before they can qualify for the program initiatives. For further information on this program, students can contact Dye in the UW-Parkside Multicultural Affairs office located in Wyllie Hall, room D182 next to the bookstore, or you can reach him by phone at 414.595.2731.

It is really 2199 and the world is in terrible shape. The three men who questioned him are "Agents", programs who make sure that their control is never threatened. Neo has been picked up because he is thought to be the Chosen One (the man who will free the world). The big question is whether or not he is the person they think he is. This was a original kick-ass sci-fi movie that you have to pay attention to every detail, otherwise you will be lost.

As a result, it has been brought back to campus. It will be playing April 14 and April 16 at 8 p.m. in the Union Cinema, $1 for UWP students, $2 for guests. It is sponsored by PAB.. The film revolves around a revolt on the Spanish slave ship Amistad in 1839. The slaves took over the ship and tried to sail back to Africa but were caught and sent to America. The big problem is to decide whether the slaves are Spanish property or whether they should be freed and sent back to Africa. The Supreme Court is going to make the decision. This is a major problem for the eighth president of the United States, Martin Van Buren (Nigel Hawthorne). Next year will be an election year and he would like to be re-elected. But slavery is an important issue at this lime (there are several slave states and there are several free states) and he knows that in order to win, he has to please many people in the slave states. So he does his best to manipulate the legal system. Defending the slaves are a young lawyer (Matthew McConaughey) and his assistant (Morgan Freeman). The lawyer is an idealist who supports -the abolishment of slavery but he knows his case is going to be rather difficult. He is ~wareof Van Buren's political agenda but decides to put up a spirited defense, with the help of the leader of the revolt (Djimon Houson). The main part of the plot revolves the case. In a land that prides itself on equal justice, the slaves find themselves the victims of bureaucracy and a future election. After the case is ruled in their favor, VanBuren orders a new trial. They win a second lime but again the president orders a new trial. All 'seems lost until former president John Quincy Adams (Anthony Hopkins) decides to join their side. The former president makes an impassioned speech before the Court about what America is supposed to be and what it could be if we really tried. 1111121.11,111.1111 11 MUSIC•MOVIES•MUSIC•MOVIES•MUSIC•MOVIES•MUSIC•M< TIIB Matrix: A must see llmistad hits the Union Cinema Chris Summy Ever since Speed, K anu R eves hasn't far d v ry well on the big screen.

"Reading papers out loud brings things into focus for them," explained Kathleen Riepe, Development Skills Specialist, "1've seen 25 years worth of papers. I know what is expected of students. Here, they can revise it to make it better. Sometimes they put a lot of pressure on themselves. They're much better writers than they think they are." Students usually need'assistance in generating ideas and writing sufficient content. She advises, "When drafting, don't worry about grammar, only content. Let it sit for a few days, then go back and check the content and grammatical errors." Most students don't know that the PARe's services are free. At some universities, students must pay up to $10 an hour for such tutoring. And the tutors at PARC are friendly and enthusiastic. Though the going sometimes gets rough, they wouldn't do this work if they didn't like it. Jad Haley-Renaud enjoys meeting students and welcomes both good and bad feedback regarding PARe. Comments aid in improving the oenter for the future. "We for the students," she stated. Jad shares five things that students need to succeed: 1) understand the assignment: 2) don't be afraid to ask questions; 3) find your resources; 4) write down what you learned because only you can learn it; and 5) set goals and expectations for yourself.

The event was sponsored by the Career Center, the Advising Center, the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Business and Technology, and the Office of Associate Vice-Chancellor. "It's important to start planning early," Goldsmith said about career planning. "Explore the options of majors, research what you find interesting, and what the field career has as options." The fair was an opportunity for students to ask questions, explore interests, and meet professors on a one-to-one basis. The networking process for students was built between the relationships with the faculty. UW-Parkside staffer Renee Kirby indicated a student approached her and was "very pleased with the fair." She said the student learned additional information while speak- ing with the Communication depart- ment and was considering a change in major. Faculty members and professors benefited from the fair because it gave them the opportunity to. recruit, encourage, promote, and share information about the depart- ments. Carol Tebben, Political Science professor, was pleased by the turnout. She helped encourage students who were interested in Law to head in the right direction and was able to share new informa- tion to students about the Pre-Law Club.

Featuring Dr. c.L. [unkerrnan, this free program takes place Monday, April 5, at noon in Molinaro 109. Dr. Junkerman is professor emeritus of medicine and assistant direc- tor of the Center for the Study of Bioethics at the Medical College of Wisconsin. He will address the topics of euthanasia and assisted sui- cide, and outline the reasons for the growing attention to this is ue. He also will examine the legal and ethical aspects of assisted suicide, the problems it raises as well as criteria for safeguards to prevent its abuse. Dr. Junkerman is widely known for his lectures, consultations, and appearances before ethics committees on difficult treatment decisions and euthanasia and assisted suicide. With the recent airing of an a sist- ed suicide on the news program "60 Minutes," and the subsequent murder trail of Dr. Jack Kevorkian, this is a topic of current national concern. The Liberal Religious Forum is an ongoing series discus ing issues that impact modern religion. This program is co-sponsored by the Parkside Philosophical Society and the Liberal Religious Forum. HOGBowl Week hits Residence life Students are urged to attend and participate. One of the biggest traditions for on-campus residents at UW- Parkside is the Housing OlympiC Garnes, or HOG Bowl. Every April the event is sponsored by UW-Parkside's Residence Life. University Apartments and the Ranger Hall residents hall battle it out to see who will bring hom~ the bacon. Events during HOG Bowl week include the Tug-of-War, a banner contest, and Jelly Bean Mouth-Stuffing contest. Events vary from year to year, but the competition is still intense: Who will it be this year? Ranger Hall or the University Apartments? With the help of these organizations and their ideas, UW-Parkside is establishing a foundation for traditions. But the best way for them to know what you are interested in having or seeing at UW-Parkside is to contact University Activities and give them your input. After all, UW- Parkside is a place of possibilities and it's your university, too.

Davies explained the greeting is part of everyday life in Nigeria, and instructed them to repeat the greeting. With pleasantries exchanged, Davies said her work- shops students "always take something back home." Today; students would take home two batik creations made using differ- ent methods. The reasons people chose to attend the workshop were as var- ied as the textiles they produced. Some were attending as a require- ment for a sociology or anthropol- ogy class. Some came because a friend invited them, and still oth- ers were art majors interested in meeting the artist and learning batiik. Batik is the process of creating patterns on cloth by applying wax which resists color when the cloth is dyed. After dying, the wax is removed, leaving behind the patterns. However, there are many ways to achieve the effects of batik without using wax. Davies introduced the class to an indigo-dyed cloth made by the Yoruba women of Nigeria called adire which translates into tie and dye. This cloth is made using a variety of resistant dye tech- niques including knotting or tying, folding, or sewing raffia onto the fabric.

On average, 585 pints of blood and blood components are transfused to patients in our area every day. Only about 4 percent of the eligible people donate. On Monday, March 29, the Blood Center will be on campus to collect blood donations from students and staff. This event is sponsored by the Student Health Counseling Center and the Molecular Biology Club, The drive will be held from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. in Union 104-106. For more information or to lock in a time, call the Student Health Counseling Center at 595-2366 prior to the drive. There will be a sign-up table set up on March 22, from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m., in Wyllie Hall across from the Library for anyone who wants to sign up. Many of us know someone, or have read about someone who has needed a blood transfusion. Without the kind- ness and generosity of strangers many loved ones would not be alive today. One hour of your time and one pint of your blood can make a difference. To be an eligible blood donor you must be 17, weight at least 110 pounds, and have no prior history of hepatitis or behaviors associated with AIDS. Please donate and help save lives.

When "science" turns into "fraud" Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document Spons coverage Wrestlers end dual meet season; Preview of the softball season ·Page 8-9 turns into "fraud" Christine Donalies Special to The Ranger The subject was "Fraud in Science." And the expert, Northwestern University Professor of philosophy Dr. David Hull, was ready to tell all. As past president of both the Philosophy of Science Dr. DavidHull Association and the Society of SystematicZoology, the author of numerous books, and editor of the series "Science and its Conceptual Foundations," Hull spoke with authority. During his lecture at UW-Parkside : Wedn~ay, Feb. 17, he tackled e questions of how science does and doesn't work and what makes SCientists act poorly. In scientific cir- cles, Hull explained, "fraud" means - 1M I I II misconduct and refers to intentional or unintentional acts such as plagia- rism or sloppiness in research habits, the most common violations in scien- tific research. From a moralistic viewpoint, Hull said "In general, most people's inten- tions don't matter." What matters is keeping proper credit and accurate records. How does science behave? Rewards are not based on monetary gain for most scientists. Hull observes, scientists who receive large grants and incomes tend to have their behavior disintegrate and lose perspective. Reward or punishment is realized through credit for one's discoveries or loss of credibility. Researchers who publish first get all the creclit. Hull referred to the Luc Montagnier fRobert Gallo dispute over who first discovered the AIDS . Montagru· er sent Gallo a high- virus.

After all, there are only 52 Saturday mornings in any given year. But that's what a group ofUW-Parkside alum- ni did on snowy Saturday, Feb. 20,to attend the Alumni Forum. Part of UW-Parkside's 30th year anniversary cele- bration, the Forum was held to give alumni the chance to meet new Chancellor Jack Keating and hear the University's plans for the future. "We are working to become an engaged univer- sity," Chancellor Keating told the alumni. 'We want to better connect. with you and with the communities we serve for the benefit of our current and future students. [The alumni] are important in this equation because you help to create the internships and job opportunities today's and tomorrow's stu- dents need." Alumni also received a report on research about business community atti- tudes toward UW-Parkside. They later heard from Dean Richard Stolz on new devel- opment in the business cur- riculum, See Alumni, Page 12 UW-Parkside Chancellor Jack Keating addresses alumni during Saturday's forum. Keatingtold alumni they are important to current and future students as role models and because they create future internshipsandjobsforstudents.

Special to The Ranger The setting is a bar. The conversation tOpICSrange fro~ finding true love to the correlation between Jesus and ham sandwiches. The JOkes are bad, and the people are crazy. This sounds fa.nu liar . Perhaps this re~inds you of Twisterz Or Conjettiz, but the bar is in Pans in 1904. The conversations also include a bit of intellectual thought. The patrons of the bar are not UW-Parks.de students, but happen to be Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein. That' right, just before they reach the status of genius, they experience a lag in their w rk. Steve Martin wrote the play "Picasso at the Lapin Agile" about what that might have been like. This play is performed and produced by UW-Parks.d students and is direct· ed by Dr. Leon J. Van Dyke. It opens at the Univ rsity of WlSCOnsin-Parkside Communication Arts Studio Theatre n February 26. Steve Martin's por- trayal of Einstein and Picasso gives a m re human angle of the two highly respected individuals. Picasso, played by Gil Gonzalez of Radne, admits his desire to change the century and leave th world '1ittered with beauty." Einstein, played by Brad Kostreva of Ken ha, struggles to prov that his equations and theories are every bit as artistic and beautiful as any f Picasso's "sketches." Martin adds real people and one-lin !'S to th interacti ns that are typical of his side-splitting humor. There is also a self-proclaimed world changer and a sur- prise guest that make an appearance to encourag and inspIre th mall. The actors and bar patrons include Kevin Hlavka, jillian Lavinka, Katie Liddicoat, Chastity Washington, Rich Smith, Sam Goeb, and] Pirto as Freddy the bartender of the Lapin Agile. P rforman begin Friday and Saturday, February 26 and 27 at 7:30 p.m., and continue th foll wing w k nd on Marcil 5 and 6 at 7:30 p.m. There will be a matin n Thursd y, March 4 at 10 am TIckets are available for $8 to the public and $6 t studen and tors, ating is limited and reservati ns are encouraged.

"A lot of the activities are co-sponsored with other organizations. For example, the movie "Lean On Me" [which will be shown on February 121 is co-sponsored with PAB, [The Parkside Activities Board], as part of the movie series. The Think Fast Quiz Bowl on Monday, February 8, is also co-sponsored with PAB. The emphasis of the questions in the quiz bowl will be on Black history triv- ia."

February was chosen because many important African-American figures and institutions were born in this month.

According to Duetsch, the Board of Regents requested that cam- puses take on other diversity issues involving gender and sexuality in other ways, but only focus on the four set groups for the report. The Plan 2008 Task Force will suggest to Chancellor Jack Keating a Diversity Committee which will include all groups on campus who will address the whole range of diversity issues.

The Volunteer • Touch Tone service makes life easier for Students Amanda Bulgrin Ranger Staff One of the many services the University of Wisconsin-Parkside offers to ease the load of students is Touch Tone Information. By dialing X3400 from any campus phone, students can hear their grades or schedules, register for and change classes, be put on a wait list for classes, withdraw from school, purchase parking permits and find out if classes are available or filled. UW-Parkside's service is equipped with 12phone lines. "In the UW-System, there is an average of one phone line for every 500 students. UW-Parkside has more lines per student than the rest of the system," said Susan johnson of the Registrar's Office. johnson is aware, however, that there are some complications with the sys- tem. One such glitch is the slow main frame. "Students find it hard to sit through the silence," stated johnson. "T he computing people are continually working to fine tune the system, so don't get discouraged." Another issue is the busy signal. According to johnson, 40-50students have the same registration time. When their time comes, they rush to the phone to register. "Give the system ten minutes to quiet down," johnson advises. johnson believes there are many benefits to the Touch Tone service. "There is no wait in line to register; you can register in the comfort of your location, and it is much more convenient." In April, registration will be available on the UW-Parkside web page, but johnson stated the new system is stillin the formative stages. Program is also awarding the team (comprised of five bowlers) that raises the the most money with pizza from Infusino's or Tenuta's! We also have a special incentive for Ranger Hall and campus apartment tearns! If you are interested, contact Gloria Schmitz in the Volunteer Office, Wyllie 0173 or at 595.2011.
