ESTABLISHED1972 Student government Leaders ask Chancellor Smith to review campus police RANGER REPORT The University of Wisconsin-Parks ide stu- dent Senate unanimously passed a "Sense of the Senate" resolution which calls upon Chancellor Eleanor Smith to immedi- ately form a university- wide committee to review the mission, activities and performance of the University Police and Public Safety (UPPS). The resolution notes there have been a growing series of reports by students and others of the police refus- ing to help students in dis- tress. At the same time there have been reports of students needlessly being treated as suspects by the police. These circum- stances have been charac- terized by the resolution as constituting "an increas- ingly repressive environ- ment", At the March 14 Parks ide Student Government Association (PSGA) meeting several Senators reported dissatis- faction as the performance _ofthe police, Other Senators made mention of the difficult job that the police seem to face and of the unique environment that a University setting can appear in the eyes of an officer trained to fight the crime of a broader based society. One PSGA member even. reported an incident in which an offi- cer was helpful. However, in the ensuing two weeks, in discussions with friends, classmates and con- stituents, the members of the Senate began to realize how widespread the dissat- isfaction with the Police has become, Sen. Karl Heinitz introduced the Resolution. Friendly amendments were accepted by Sen, Troy Getter and Sen. Zac Pawlowski. On a motion of acclamation by Sen. Jason Weniger, the resolution carried. The resolution as amended was forwarded to Smith. PSGA Comer COLEEN TARTAGLIA PSGA meetings are Fridays at noon in CART 129. The Ranger. News will inform students of PSGA s meetings in a weekly col- umn APRIL 4, 1997: At the meeting, 22 out of25 appointed positions attended, along with four guests, and PSGA advi- sor Steve McLaughlin. V. President's report. Submitted was Resolution #97.2 which is "the Administration should imme- diately appoint a University com- mittee consisting of students, fac- ulty and employees, [representa- tive of the population of the school, limited to a term of two semesters] ...to audit, review, and passjudgement...[there is) the need for civilian review board ..." This is because of many complaints from the students, regarding the University Police and Public Safety (UPPS) departments treat- ing them unfairly. President Jacobson said this committee is, "to make sure they [UPPS) are fol- lowing the law...[and not] conve- nience es. constitutional rights.: The Administration will appoint this committee if the resolution passes; however, Chancellor Smith needs to approve it first. The members appointed will need to • make a comm itment, and have an interest in this matter. Then the senate needs to approve the candi- date. Second on the agenda was the Student Survey Committee. This survey, comprised of soo students, is about what the students would prefer in an "Ideal Schedule." It also asked questions such as: when would you like your classes to be offered? days, times, am/pm, length, weekends, etc.? child care? elderly care? The 5100 students represented the more than 5,000 students we have on campus. Teri Jacobson serves on that committee, and the chairperson is Diana Sharp. They will possibly take this survey again; soon. If you would like information, please contact Diana Sharp, the Executive Assistant to the Assistant Chancellor, at 595.2660. The Academic Council meet- ing is working on an Academic Retention Plan. The problem they are focusing on is "[Students who have 1 started as freshmari, are not . graduating at UW-Parkside." They are attending different colleges to get their degree. The promotions committee is looking for ways of promoting UWP in the high schools, to recruit students, [and to make our University more appealing to stay until graduation time). This is a very good opportunity for Communication and English majors and minors to upt their skills to work. According to jacob- son, «this is not a huge cornmit- ment...two to three at the most." They need volunteers to speak at high schools, make telephone calls, and write letters. If inerested, call Jacobson at 595.2703. VI. Vice-presidents report. VII. Pro- Temp report VIII.

April 10. 1997. page~ Sustainable Racine project puts students KRIS ZIESEMER GUEST WRJTER Communications students at the University of Wisconsin- Parkside are participating in an innovative community visionary project involving the residents of Racine. That project is called Sustainable Racine. The students are from the Public Relations and Society course taught by Judy Logsdon, professor of communication. The project is funded by Samuel Johnson, chairman of S.c. Johnson. UW- Parks ide has an active role in providing the project with staffing needs until an executive director and permanent staff are hired. The students are working with William Matelski of Matelski and Associates, Inc., the lead staff person for the pro- ject. The community-wide effort will focus on meeting the current needs of all citizens without compromising the ability of future generations in meeting their own needs. Citizen input in developing ideas that will strengthen and unify the community and deter- mine a common vision for the future is a major component of the Sustainable Community effort. The students have become actively involved in marketing the concepts and ideas behind the Sustainable Racine effort to the UW-Parkside community. Students, faculty and staff make up a significant portion of Racine's population. Involvement and input of ideas can enhance the area of Racine in creating and sustaining a healthier, safer and better envi- ronment in all standards of liv- ing. ""- The Sustainable effort will be looking for active participants who want to become involved in this innovative, visionary pro- ject. Why not think about becom. ing involved? By joining in with others you can make Racine a community that cele- brates its diversity and addresses the needs and concerns of all who work, visit and or live in its area.

One student elected to three positions, low voter turnout to blame KRISTINE HANSEN RANGER REPORTER A student voter turnout of about 6 percent in this semester's election enabled the University of Wisconsin-Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA)'s vice president Jason Weniger to run for four positions - - and single-handedly win three of them. PSGA reported approximately 380 voters in the March 5 and 6 election. "It's sad," said Weniger about the low voter turnout. "The apathy on this campus is pretty bad." Teri Jacobson, current PSGA president, said the low voter turnout is similar to previous semesters. A high voter turnout occurs "when (PSGA) has done something really stupid the year before. Voterturnout is related to how mad the students are," she said.

Last week, one of the group members decided to put out some incense sticks to add to their desired atmosphere. Students noticed this addition and inquired about it. So far they have enjoyed a record-high success rate amongst the six groups. Four members from the administrations office here at Parkside are serving as bankers for each of the six businesses. They are also acting as evaluators to determine whether or not the groups are eligible for a loan. The criterion for granting the loan are determined by the viability of the businesses from an investment standpoint, based on the summaries and reports submitted by the individual business members during the first part of the course. Each group hoped to be loaned $50 to use as their start-up money. All the proceeds earned by the businesses will be donated to separate chari. ties selected by the business memo bers.

Safewalk: helpful and fun DAN LEINEN GUEST WRITER Parks ide seems to be a peaceful university out in the woods, but it can also be a dangerous place for people to walk late at night. The trees and the seclusion of areas can make it an easy place for crimes to occur. The safewalk program is an escorting service on campus that helps make our campus more safe. Safewalkers ensure the safety of fellow students by accompanying them to places around campus. The volunteers sit at a table outside the library at DRiVE SMART.

Barry couldn't bear to watch that one, he turned away in embarrassment. In the 90's, 1V tried to bring back the Brady's. It only lasted for ten episodes because it didn't have the innocence of the Brady Bunch, and it dealt with real life issues. Greg was now a doctor, a Gynecologist, upon Barry's own suggestion. Marcia was an alcoholic, Cindy was a DJ on an underground radio show, and Bobby was a race car driver who became a paraplegic. I guess America wasn't ready for real life with the Brady's. He dispelled the rumors about Florence Henderson and him being involved. He said it all started on the Geraldo show. By the end of the show, the rumors about Florence and him "having a thing" were flying. However, none of them are true. Parkside Ranger staff.

With their record 2-4, the Rangers traveled to QUincy last weekend, to take on the first place Hawks. The Rangers jumped out to a four run lead in the first. Jamie Karow, Rob Valcq, Chris Schiefer and Toby Horon, drove in runs with RBI singles. Quincy scored three runs in the first and second innings, and once in the third, to take the lead at 7-3. In the fourth inning the Rangers recaptured the lead. Malt Loder doubled, and Jamie Karow and Rob Valcq both singled and scored to make the score 8-7.

Once again, it was Wendy Wolff (19-3) and Kris Vanlangevelde (14-1) who. both improved their record last week.

To improve these services, the Regents requested a $4 million initiative in the budget proposal to aid campuses in improving and expanding their advising pro- grams. This initiative was not funded in the Governor's pro- posed budget. "This is an initiative that stu- dents, United Council, UW System President Lyall and the Board of Regents have all said is important. The Legislature needs to invest in this initiative because it will aid students in graduating faster to become productive, tax- paying citizens," said Casper.

JASON KLUZAK NEWS INTERN . Recently, a University of Wisconsin-Parkside Dean retired from the school of Business and Technology. Richard Brown, the former Dean from the School of Business and Technology retired from his office this year. The acting Dean in his place, Roger Hudson, who is the Chair of the Department of Business remarked, "He wasquite a story in himself." During his four years at Parkside, Brown became involved in university planning. His work was influential in bringing differ- ent voices and interest on campus together.

Stress is a con- dition which can lead to smoking or over eating. This can be alle- viated by the same principles as the latter two, behavior modifica- tion. Lack of exercise, brought on by stress or overeating or.any other reason is rooted psycholog- ically in lack of motivation. This also is modifiable behavior. Stress is evidential of the rela- health care. Beyer says that psy- chology can reduce this figure. With reference to the number one killer in our nation, heart disease accounts for a large portion of where health care funds end up. Heart disease is brought on by a number of causes. Smoking plays a large part in most cases. Since smoking is a modifiable behavior, it can be treated with psychology. Sessions with a psy- chologist can lead to less smok- ing which in turn will lead to less heart disease. Like smoking, over eating and a high cholesterol intake are S I .

Matt Wtight enrolled in the Volunteer Program last November as a freshman interested in the Pre- Health Program at UW-Parkside. He was placed in the Emergency Room at Siena Hospital North (St. Catherine's Hospital) and volun- teers weekly. "I really enjoy what 1 do at Siena North," reported Matt. 'The doctors and nurses are really friendly and sometimes 1 am allowed to watch them do certain procedures. 1 also transport patients to different floors, run samples to the lab and clean up the rooms after the patients leave. The best experience I have had is see- ing a cr Scan. Being able to look at the eternal structure of the brain was just amazing! Volunteering at the hospital is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done," Karen Kennedy, Volunteer Coordinator at Siena North, keeps up with Matthew Wright Matt's progress. She said, "Matt is very enthusiastic about volunteer- ing in the ER. He's motivated and is a wonderful volunteer to have on my staff." Matt also helped with the ani- mals at the Society of St. Francis Animal Shelter last fall. Thanks Matt for being a positive represen- tative of UW-Parkside while vol- unteering in the community.

On a straight portion of the road, James Lovell's southbound vehicle crossed the centerline and collided with Torgerson's northbound compact car. At the scene, Lovell, 33, smelled strongly of alcohol and had a blood alcohol count of 0.194 percent. He was headed horne after an evening of bowling where he had 5 beers in 3 hours. A RAC of 0.10 is proof of intoxication. Lovell is being charged with homicide by the" intoxicated operation of a vehicle and homicide by the operation of a vehiele with a prohibited blood alcohol count. If convicted, Lovell faces a maximum of 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The law allows a defendant to be punished for only one charge. Lovell, a 12 year veteran of the fire department, was released from the hospital after sustaining minor facial cuts and transported to the police department. His initial court appearance was .onMonday March lO. Torgerson didn't smoke, drink or eat red meat. He was also very active-in athletics.

The Pickle underwent regular maintenance checks and was serviced during semester breaks and vacations. Aside from a farewell to these problems come the luxuries that Parkside students will enjoy on the new bus. The bus is handicap accessible with capability of accommodating two wheelchairs. The unit is also equipped with heating and air conditioning. Occupants will enjoy four rows of two- person plush vinyl and cloth seats per side. Visual aesthetics include black and green stripes on a white background with the University logo applied. The manufacturing of the bus and the application of the graphics will take up to nine or ten weeks from now. The new bus should be delivered on campus by the end of the semester and be fully operational for the summer session. The bus, which was funded by parking fees, will continue on in the "Pickle's" trademarks. The free campus bus service will operate from Tallent Hall and stops at the Union bridge and the Communication Arts and Physical ed. buildings. Officer Robert Deane, Chief of University Police says the old bus will be sold or auctioned off. The popular sight on campus of the green shuttle bus, sporting the school colors, will soon be retired of its services. This will make way for a new $61,000 custom-manufactured model, which will seat 22 passengers. During its 13 years of service to the students of Parkside, the Pickle has acquired 171,000 miles, a rap sheet of repairs and a major problem with rust.

When that account turned over last summer, Joe came in to help start up the UW-Parkside aCCOUnt Marriott's first within th; University of Wisconsin system. Consequently, the dining service staff and university administration already know him and are pleased to see him return to take over this important interim director's role. His stated goal upon arriving is "to continually improve the food and services for my customers associ. ated with the University of Wisconsin-Parks ide campus." Among those challenges in the months ahead will be: to finish off and open Sub Connection in Union Square; to set up an acceptable alternative service in Lower Main Place (Wyllie Hall Coffee Shop) during construction of the new food court; and to oversee construction for Marriott. fat grams, by fat gram to calorie percentage, etc. Because each campus in the country using this system will be somewhat unique and individualized, not 100% of the campus food offerings will be initially loaded in the software. Chef Manager Kevin Slowik is constantly looking for new offerings to make campus dining more interesting. These 000- Marriott recipes will not necessarily be broken down into all the above categories, in that all the information may not be readily available. The University is pleased to have made this type information a requirement under its new Dining Service contract. And Marriott Corporation probably has the Cadillac of such electronic access systems in the country. Everyone is encouraged to visit the new kiosk center, play with it, learn its uses and take advantage of this unique service available to the campus. In an unexpected move announced by Marriott Education Services, former Director of Dining Services James Mueller has left the company to take on the position of head of dining services at UW-Platteville, a self-operating food service campus. Taking his place as interim director and already on campus and into things is Joseph Wojtowicz (pronounced Wah-toe-witch). A graduate of Indiana University in Business Administration, certified in food service sanitation by the state of Illinois and in food service quality assurance by the University of Massachusetts, Joe joins the campus with over 20 years of experience with Marriott Corporation. From 1983 through 1989, he served as Food Service Director at Northwestern University's Graduate School. And most recently, from 1989 to 1996, he served as Food Service Director at The Parkside Union is pleased to announce the introduction of a new combination of a customer feedback system and a well ness nutrition center in the main dining room on the L1 level of the building. An innovation of Marriott Education Services Division, this fully automated kiosk and infonnation center will allow campus food service customers to both access menu information and have direct dialogue with Dining Service management on a variety of issues. The customer feedback system consists of a comment card box, preprinted comment cards (We'd Like To Hear From You) and a magnetized comment board for message posting. Ask your question or make your comment - and within a day or two your input and management's response will be posted. This is an expression by Marriott of their motto that "Your Satisfaction Is Our Commitment." Long awaited is the nutritional information instantly available on most of Dining Services' food offerings through the kiosk's wellness center materials and computerized software program. It is designed specifically to track UWParkside's dining menu offerings. This user friendly, touch screen color monitor computer program is revolutionary to the college food service industry. It contains the nutrient analysis for the entire Marriott recipe file. Its software can create item identifier cards by item name, portion size and calories, as well as grams of protein, fat and carbohydrates. In addition are milligram listings for cholesterol, vitamin C, sodium, calcium, and iron.

Molinaro and Greenquist KIMBERLY KILGREN COMMUNICATIONS 250 How many times have you rushed through Molinaro or Greenquist Hall to get to class? Pretty many? How many times have you strolled through those two halls, stopping to look at the two portraits on the wall? Never? Those portraits honor George Molinaro and Kenneth Greenquist for helping to establish the University of WisconsinParkside in 1968. George Molinaro, the eldest son of Italian immigrants, was born in Kenosha in 1902. Although Molinaro's formal education ended at age fourteen, he flourished in a thirty-year career as a Wisconsin state representative. Credited with founding UW-Parkside, Molinaro lobbied the University of Wisconsin System for a new campus and promoted Kenosha as a site. Success was not unknown in the Molinaro family. George's brother Joseph Molinaro became district attorney in Kenosha, and his brother Al Molinaro became a television star best known as AI, the drive-in owner, on Happy Days and Joanie Loves Chachi, and as Murray, the poker-playing cop, on The Odd Couple. George Molinaro died of lung cancer in 1978. Within two weeks, the UW System Board of Regents named the new modern industry building George Molinaro Hall, per UW-Parkside's request. Kenneth Greenquist was born in Florence, Wisconsin, in 1910. After graduating from the University of Wisconsin Law School, Greenquist served as a Navy lieutenant during World War II. After the war, Greenquist began his career as an attorney in Racine. In 1962 Greenquist was appointed to the UW Board of Regents and five years later he was elected President of the Board. After the State Legislature led by Molinaro established the UW-Parkside campus, Greenquist began lining up funds at the Capitol. Greenquist became very ill after attending the National Football Conference Championship in January 1968, better known as the Ice Bowl. Tests revealedhe had an advanced case of Hodgkin's Disease. Soon after Greenquist's death in spring of 1968, the Board of Regents named UW-Parkside's first building Kenneth Greenquist Hall. Stressful semester for bookstore patrons CARRIE LEATHERMAN COMMUNICATIONS 250 Students have had a difficult time getting books this semester. Many wonder why. The truth is there have been many unforeseen circumstances that have occurred this year, all of which have been out of the students hands. According to Nancy Schroeder, Follett Store Manager, there were a number of reasons why this occurred. In one case, two or three professors ordered the sarne book for a class and not enough books were ordered. Some orders weren't received on time causing problem-s. There was even a c~. cumslance this semester when one publisher bought out another just as books were being ordered. When something like that happens, orders get lost or jumbled and the books don't arrive on time. Sometimes they don't arrive at all. According to Schroeder these circumstances "cause students to wonder if they will ever catch up," and that is a real problem. Kris Ziesemer, a student at Parkside, felt the crunch herself this semester when some students in one of her classes didn't receive their books. In this instance it was the publis~er who told the bookstore that the orders were on the way; then two weeks into the class, the students were notified that the book was out of print. According to Marcelle Montagne, an instructor in communication, all her classes had to be restructured because of text problems. According to Schroeder, 'The professors and students alike have been very patient and we appreciate that very much." Schroeder also says very accurate tabs are kept on books. She gets weekly updates from professors on how many books they need 50 it is rare that a new order is missed. "Unfortunately this year," she states, "a bunch of things happened at once .. .it's been a stressful year for everyone." Schroeder was asked if she had any advice as to what students could do in this situation. She advised that students "try another school with a Follett bookstore, see if they have the book you need." She suggested Marquette as one option. Another suggestion came from professors who told students to II)' another bookstore like Barnes and Noble, Half Price Books, or Walden Books, or see if a copyis available in the Parkside library. Birth control available at Parkside NICOLE CERTOSIMO COMMUNICATIONS 250 Attention females, protect yourself from the risk of pregnancy. The Student Health and Counseling Services at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside offers methods of birth control for all college students. Student Health Services sells condoms, birth control pills, and new Depro-Provera injections for even the financially challenged students. Condoms are sold in packets of eight for only one dollar. Typically, condoms are around ninety percent effective, but these contain tbe spermicide nonoxynol-9 which is the best protection available against AIDS and other SIDs. UW-Parkside sells TrojanENZ condoms in both lubricated and nonlubricated. Female students enrolled at UW-Parkside are eligible to obtain birth control pills from Student Health and Counseling Services. This oral contraceptive contains the female hormones estrogen and progesterone which suppress ovulation and prevent conception; they are ninety-nine percent effective against pregnancy. The pill is available in several different prescriptions. Student Health Services carries seven brands: Ortho Novum 7-7-7, Ortho Novum 1/35, Ortho Cyclen, Ortho Tri-Cyclen, Ortho Cept, Triphasil 28 and Demulen 1/35. Each brand contains different levels of the two hormones. Women need to be examined by a personal physician or Planned Parenthood to find the correct prescription. St. Catherine's Family practice also offers this exam for women. Oral contraceptives are five dollars per packet and exam costs vary. The price is less than that offered at Planned Parenthood. Now being offered at Student Health Services are the Depro-Provera shots. An injection is needed once every three months, instead of taking a pill everyday and it isjust as effective, 99.7%. These injections cost only thirty-five dollars through Student Health Services. Free pregnancy tests are also offered.

It is an agenda for women's empowerment and equal rights; at home, at work, national and international. There are five requirements for the women's empowerment to become effective. I will sununarize what each says, although the full version is worth reading and understanding well: 1. Women's empowerment 2. The human rights of women and female children should be a universal right. 3. Gender equality 4. We must have a peaceful, just and humane world. 5. A government commitment to help with these rights There was also a large display on Greece: Lady Amalia Heming (1909- 1986), was head of the Greek committee of Amnesty International. Aikaterini Laskaridou operated workshops so poor women could learn work skills. Kalliopi Kehajia (1839-1905), the first woman to use open lectures for education for literary, etc. Sappho Leontias (1832-1900), struggled for equal opportunities for women in education.

While you tlip through the book, you will see the three-dimensional designs that will surprise you with every tum of the page. My favorite work of art is from artist Kristina M. Niemi, labeled "The Fishes". It is silent poetry, showing the connection of humans and nature. The creation is on a 7-foot by I-inch piece of lumber with knotholes, which bring interest to the thought-provoking design. The artist used acrylic and lumber crayons to produce an American-Indian woman. Kristina dresses her in light azure; the woman's hands are lifted over her head, fish tlopping above her, and blue water droplets sliding down her arms. Mr. Niemi is from Lance Junior High School. The rest of the pieces are also aesthetically pleasing. I suggest you check out "Frank" by Brenda gust in made from ink and watercolor.

For the last two weeks that Alpha Phi Fraternity Inc., and the Sisters of Isis have been doing a fund raiser to help support the Black Holocaust Museum in Milwaukee. The museum was started by James Cameron, a escapee of a lynching. He started the museum so that young people can learn about their history and keep it alive. In doing the fundraiser these young men and women collected money and bowled in a small tournament. The money was collected so that the young people that are going to be there in the future will have a place to learn about where they came from and where they are going. They want the young children to know that the museum is for them. When asked about how they felt about what the fraternity has done for the museum, Andree Simons, a graduating member, stated that "the youth of today do not know where they are going because they do now know where they came from", and this he feels is one of the many reasons for black on black crime in our society today. A member of the Sisters ofIsis, Cennita Santiago, said that "this project shows Alpha Phi Alpha and' its concern for cultural awareness throughout the university." The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and the Sisters of Isis would like to extend a heart-felt thank you to everyone who contributed. wow COLEEN TARTAGLIA ENTERTAINMENT EDlTDR open and WOW is forWomen of the World and those who have played an important part in our society.

BRIAN MIKOLAJEK SPORTS REPORTER Wisconsin Badgers and Mike Deane's Marquette Warriors (oops) Golden Eagles for ending their seasons very strong, and rightfully earning tournament bids. The Badgers, undermanned in the backcourt all season, finished with an 18-9 record, but more importantly, an 11-7 record in the Big Ten. Coach Bennett's squad relied on playing outstanding defence and defending their home court for the entire year, capping the conference season with a 66- 65 victory over #2 ranked Minnesota, rightfully solidifying their bid. Marquette (22-8) on the other hand, scored some much needed big wins in the Conference USA tournament, defeating 4 teams (DePaul, Memphis, #10 ranked Cincinnati, and UNC-Charlotte) in 4 days to earn the automatic bid. Both Wisconsin and Marquette received #7 seeds in this year's NCAA tournament. The Badgers will travel to Pittsburgh, PA to face the Big 12's Texas Longhorns (seeded #10, 16-11) , while the Golden Eagles take on the Providence Friars (#10, 21- II) from the Big East in Charlotte, N.C.

Typically, UC see Debates, page 3 Demand for science teachers in the area AMANDA BULGRIN EDITOR-IN-CHIEF required 2 credits. Because of this, more science teachers are needed. According to Joe Balsano, director of the Science and Technology Education Center, a historical factor also plays a role in the demand for science teachers. In 1957-1958 Sputnik, artificial sateIlites, were launched by USSR. This placed pressure on science and technology in the United States. In order to keep up with the technological race see Science, page 3 Anatomy of a jury trial COLEEN TARTAGLIA ENTERTAlNMENT EDITOR For the Soup and Substance series, Kenosha County circuit coon Judge, Barbara Kluka, visited UW-Parkside last Wednesday. "I am going to talk about an activity that OCcurs least frequently in a court system," she said, 'jury trials." Most jury trials are for cases of sexual assault, first degree murder, and revoked licenses. The breakdown for Kenosha County for crimes brought to the Courtsin 1996 is: 1,200 felony cases 5,lXX)misdemeanor cases Only 100 went to jury trial The jury is selected from departmentofMotorVehicies lists. Ifyou drive, you can be chosen. Judge Kluka says they are trying to expand that list to include high school graduates, and customers Whopay utility bills. so more people may have a chance of being Chosen,not only people who drive. In 1996-97, the Department of Motor Vehicles put 101,000 into Kenosha's computer system. The system randomly selected 8,000 Three Parkside students All-American Sophomore Ann Kelley earned All-American honors in the 1000 m run last weekend at tbe NAIA National Indoor Championships at the University of Nebraska. More on this and many other exciting Ranger sports storys ong page 6 and 7. people, and the court sent them questionnaires for possible jury electors. The questionnaire is very short, in fact, I have responded to one. They ask age, residency, citizenship, and if you are a convicted felon. If you are not a convicted felon, you are an elector, which entitles you the right to be on ajury, Out of the- 8,000 people, approximately 6,000 are chosen after, "weeding out the citizens who cannot participate." Those 6,000 are again randomly selected to serve on juries. The Kenosha County court system has seven judges, out of those seven, they might each have one or two jury trails a week. Twenty possible jurors are selected for each trial. Out of those 20, six get weeded out, 12 remain for the jury, and two remain as alternate jurors. In 1992, the American Disability Association (ADA) was enacted, giving persons with disabilities the right to accommodations. Wheelchair accessibility is a given, but other disabilities such as reading, writing, or language difficulties, such as a deaf or blind disability, those people wiIl get the accommodations they need to be equal with all jurors in deciding a case. As for race and gender issues, an audience member asked Judge Kluka if anything can be done to get more minorities on jury trials. She said, "Jury selection is a random process, we cannot include or exclude anyone." Due to an increase in the mandatory science credits at the high school level and a historical factor, there is a demand for science teachers in the area. Recently the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction mandated that high school students will need to take 3 credits of science rather than the previously Kreuser Sponsors Legislation To Crack Down on Unpaid Parking Tickets ets should pay up before all of us have to bear the burden of higher taxes. It's an issue of fairness," noted Kreuser. "This money can be put to good use at the local level and this biIl should help give municipalities an extra tool to use to collect what is due to them." The biIl would give car owners in violation at least 28 days of notice before their car could be booted. Last legislative session a similar measure passed the Assembly 74- 24, but the State Senate Adjourned for the session before laking action on the bill. Representative Jim Kreuser sponsored legislation aimed at getting people to pay unpaid parking tickets. The bill would allow municipalities to immobilize or "boot" vehicles with five or more outstanding parking tickets. Unpaid tickets are a major source of lost revenue of localities. The City of Milwaukee has over $15 million in unpaid parking tickets and according to the Kenosha Police Department the City of Kenosha has in excess of $350,000 in unpaid parking fines.

Nhether students are going to Florida. Colorado. or just staying home. it is time to relax and enjoy the week off. Before students take off though. from March 10 through March 14. the Peer Health Educators have put together "Safe Spring Break" week. "Safe Spring Break" week will be full of posters. information.

Their pledge will then be entered into a nationwide drawing. PHE's theme this year is ..It's a Friends Thing". They believe that friends are the best equipped to look out for each other. PHE captain Debra Scott said.· ..If everyone would look out for their friends. whether it be with alcohol and drugs. drunk/drugged driving. safer sex. sunbathing, oreven getting a tattoo, we'd all have a community of people to look out for each other." The Peer Health Educators would like to encourage friends to look out for each other and take care of each other. especially over Spring Break! Have a Safe Break' game. The purpose of the week is to influence students to make safer choices as well as watch out for their friends over break. Every year. drug and alcohol-related injuries and deaths increase between March and mid-April due to Spring Breaks nationwide. The Peer Health Educators wil1 be reminding students of these. and other, disastrous situations to prevent them here at Parkside.

Teri Jacobson, Senior: "I am running for the office of President for many reasons. One is that I enjoy representing the students of UW-Parkside to faculty. staff. administrators and community people. Another reason is that I learn a great deal from representing the students and would like to continue to learn and continue to share the knowledge that I learn with my fellow students. I believe I have done a good job representing the students in the past and hope I will be able to again in the future. As the chair of SUFAC (Seg. Univ. Fee Allocation Com.) I was able to keep the fees from raising for two years.' As the chair of the Legislative Affairs Committee I helped lobby legislators to protect the school's budget and the Tuition Award Program (TAP). As a member of the Parking Policies Corn., J am working to make the of their ideas and needs." Parking Policies more user-friendly." Corey Mandley, Freshman: "I have the leadership skills and knowledge to be the Vice-President of PSGA. As VicePresident I will be committed to representing all students here at Parkside." Jeremy Kinsey, Junior: "My name is Jeremy Kinsey. I am a Junior majoring in Art. My intentions in this election are not personal. Ihave no set personal agenda. I would like your vote for president in order to inform you. the student. of what goes on in Parkside Student Government. I seek your input and suggestions. It is with this input that I will fulfill my duties by providing the students of Parkside with the implementation Auzio Hewlett, Freshman: "Will be running in support of Corey Mandley as Vice President. To help make 'a difference." Jason Weniger, Junior: "It would be nifty to be President." (Art major) Jason Weniger, Junior: "It would be nifty to have the title Senator." Jason Weniger, Junior: "It would be nifty to be on PUAB.'· Jason Weniger, Junior: ..It would be nifty to be on SUFAC.'· Letters to the Editor holds one General Assembly meeting a month. each time at a different UW schooL Pawlowski called Parkside's UC membership "a waste of money" since it costs the university "$14.000 a year to send some PSGA members to party at UW schools." Mandley said it is "very important" for Parkside to belong because "we need our representation," On UC. Kinsey said. ''95 cents is a pittance .... Like Sally Struthers says. that's about the price of a cup of coffee." Weniger said UC "gives us representation we can't give ourselves." Jacobson pointed out that the 95-cent figure ignores the $4500 in the PSGA travel budget to attend General Assemblies and added. "UC only works if UW-Parkside is actively involved in it." UW-Parkside students will decide about Parkside's continued membership in United Council by referendum March 5 and 6. On Diversity. candidates at all levels agreed that much remains to be done to increase the level of awareness at Parkside. Kinsey suggested that by getting all the clubs together to hold a collective event, we might combat the problem of ignorance. Jacobson commended Parkside's population which is willing to get involved. Jammerson recommended that an African American be hired to teach African American history. Mandley recommended Parkside "use UC as an instrument of diversity." In the words of candidate Weniger, "Vote for whoever you think is qualified. This year you have a choice." T 0 the Editor: No. ladies and gentlemen. the circus has not come to Parkside. but the Parkside Student Government Association(PSGA) is providing the next best thing: an election. This time around however, something is different: this semester your vote truly matters! Every two years we have to vote on whether we should continue to pay or fire our lobbyist group. the United Council. For many moons this "Useless" Council has accomplished nothing more than taking our money and spending it all on convincing us that we should be honored to pay. Not, only does each student pay UC 95 cents each semester. but PSGA budgets $4.500 for food. lodging. and travel to send students to UC conferences at other brainwashed schools. The only thing I have ever heard discussed about these conferences is how great the parties are. IT IS TIME TO VOTE NO ON SPENDING $14.000 PER YEAR TO SEND STIJDENTS TO PARTY' The other issue of note is the election of PSGA president. If this race were a spaghetti western it would be entitled "The Good. The Bad. and the Unknown." The Good: the incumbent Teri Jacobson. who knows more about PSGA and has done more work than the rest of PSGA combined. The Bad: The vice-president Jason Weniger, who has apparently decided that his ability to be tardy to or to entirely miss PSGA meetings that he is paid to chair makes him worthy of a promotion. The,Unknown: Jeremy Kinsey. a PSGA outsider who allegedly is only running to find out what student government does, but has ne,:er even bothered to attend a Senate meeting. Only six people ?"'e running for the nine open senate seats, so if you are not on the ballot, you could still run a successful write in campaign. Zac Pawlowski. Student Senator To the Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to speak from the heart. A few weeks ago. I was asked to help make posters advertising PSGA's Open House. and, in my zeal to create a piece of eye-popping publicity, Iinsensitively used wording that could be construed as making a negative value judgment about medical programs in certain nations. This error stemmed from the fact that. as a member of a small, largely ignored campus organization. I found that only "on the edge" publicity attracted students to our events. As a result of later reflection, I realized that such an advertisement, while it may attract the eye, can also hurt and offend. I understand how that sign may have been hurtful to some members ofthe campus community. and I offer them my sincerest apologies. Richard Karwatka Science from page 1 of the early 6O's emphasis was placed on science; teaching and education. This increase produced a large amount of science teachers 30 years ago. Now, however, that mass of science educators are ready to retire, opening more space for science teachers. "It's a good time to be considering science teaching," stated Balsano. Balsano added that the largest demand was for the secondary sciences. 6-12 grades. In other levels. a background in science will help get you a job. g I March 6,1997."..~ Panama- City, Florida vs, Canelln, Mexico . LINDA GARCIA GUEST WRITER City, Florida and Cancun, Mexico seem to be the most popular places to cure an exam hangover. So, what's your pleasure? Panama City or Cancun? Both vacation spots offer similar fantasies: sun, beach, parties and cruises, although both are individual in many respects. For the past three years, the Imagine sitting on a sandy beach with all your friends basking in the warm sun. The clear waves are crashing at your feet as you sip an ice cold strawberry daiquiri.

"e'''tI'. (LU~ 'FII&IIII Parkside Union has offered spring break in Panama City. Each year the tum out has increased. In 1995, 3 J students attended compared to the 74 students who jumped on the bandwagon in 1996. For this spring break the Union has only reserved spots for 55 students and room is still available. In Panama City, there is a world of parties, bars, cruises and snorkeling. On the main strip of the town you will run into a ton of small and large novelty stores and a million hotels. The hotel that the Parkside students will be staying at is the Days Inn. All the rooms are Gulf front and have a beautiful view. You will be able to keep an eye on the party at all times. The day begins with dancing and hanging out at the beach and extends into the evening dancing at the famous Spinnakers or at the popular club La Vela. Don't worry if you think you will left out of the fun because you are not old enough; you only have to be 18 to get in, although 21 to drink. Students who have taken this excursion have nothing but good reviews. Sue Bushweiler of the information desk guarantees a great time for everyone. Christa Molina, a student at Parkside, exclaims, "I couldn't believe how much fun I had!" Don't know much Spanish? Not a problem. In Cancun the only necessary word is 'cerveza' (beer). Like Panama City, Cancun offers many of the same packages. There are scuba diving, sunset cruises, booze cruises, and day excursions. The sun is hot, the beaches are beautiful with white sand and clear blue water. The students that fly off to Mexico stay either in the Laguna Cancun, Laguna Verde, or Laguna Inn. They are conveniently located to the water and near all the great nightclubs. The nightclubs in Cancun are wild and crazy. There are foampar. ties, popular clubs like Senor Frogs, Carlos and Charlies, Fat Tuesday's and the infamous La Boom. Becky Ranchoner states, "This is the third time Iam going and definitely not the last'" Don't worry about having to rent a car, because there is always transportation waiting at the door. If there isn't the city bus, there are eager cab drivers willing to makea deal. Now that you have gotten a taste of both worlds, it's up to you where you want to spend your seven days of fun in the sun. I ~ Give me a break. COLEEN TARTAGLIA ENTERTAINMENT EDITOR Tap-tap-tap!

Tucker shatters school record, Licht and Kelley also All-American ALHEPPNER SPORfS EDITOR Seven runners, five finalists, and three AIIAmericans in two events. That's what the score card read for UWP at the NAJA National Indoor Championships at the University of Nebraska. GLVC restrictions only allowed the Rangers to run in non-NCAA events, so UWP entered runners in just the 1000 and 3000 meter runs. Both events held semi-finals on Friday and the finals on Saturday. In the semis, Pam Tucker, Lisa Schaich, and Ann Kelley all advanced to final. Freshman Laura Peterson failed to advance, but had a great season and will compete in many more national meets. In the 3000 semis, Jill Branner and Wendy Licht advanced, while Missy Shumway came up a few seconds short despite running her best time ever by five seconds. 'They did a great job of running smart and patiently in the semis to set themselves up for great races in the finals," Coach Mike De Win said. In the 1000 final, Tucker smashed the school record by nearly two seconds to finish a fourth place All-American in 2,57.29. Tucker had never broken three minutes in the 1000, yet she broke it twice in this meet. She was only two seconds off the winner in a tightly contested race. Super Soph Ann Kelley grabbed the sixth and final All-American slot in 3:01.87, edg- Pam Thcker ing seventh place by one second. Lisa Schaich finished eighth in 3:03.79. Wendy Licht had the highest finish of the day for the Rangers, placing third in the 3000 final in 10:07.81. Licht slowly moved through the field and finished strong with her last 1000 meters being the fastest. Freshman Jill Branner finished ninth (10:24.70). "It wasn't any great coaching genius on my part. Their performances are a credit to their desire and drive to race strong," Coach De Witt said. The prestigious NCAA IInationals are next week. Tucker and Licht are on the provisionallist and will find out this week if their times are accepted. But for now they can enjoy their NAJA All-American plaques. .

The race was won by former UWP standout and Olympian Deb Lawrence in 13:14. In the men's 5 km race walk, Freddie Joe Nunn placed seventh at his first nationals in 22:49. Nunn said of the banked track, "I kept bumping into the cones and I almost fell off the track." AI Heppner had a disappointing meet. Hepp was in 5th place at the 4 Ian mark, before being disqualified. The race walkers next travel to Washington D.C. for the World Cup Trials.

The intentions of the party Hilliard indicated, are to, "give access to histor- ical documents and to counter misin- formation." Programs are offered through the university that do this for people interested. Hilliard credits the movement as being, "truly a legitimate party," with reference made to its 'ten-point system: The purpose of the party is '10 serve the needs of the peo- ple and to deal with oppression and injustices in our society."

This portionof the lecture supported the rea- sons for the movement and helped to clarify the intentions and functions of the Black Panther organization. The speaker, David Hilliard, the chiefof staff of the Black Panther Party and one of the founding members, delivered a detailed chronology of events starting from 1964.

Those threshold and to protect oneself. Shortly thereafter, Martin Luther King was assassinated. The Black Panthers tried to end the spontaneous rebellions but Hi lliard . pointed out that the Panthers, "believed in trying to defend their own and would make no apology for doing that." Hilliard went on to say that the Black Panthers initiated funding to pro- mote child and health services, aid for the senior citizens in tile community. Research into the racially exclusive disease, sickle-cell anemia was initial- ed, free clinics were designated and "hot-breakfast' programs were devel- oped for younger school children that left home on empty stomachs. Hilliard suggested that the difference between the Black Panther movement and other organizations is such that," the panthers combined theory with practice." As it appears today, changes in legislation that affect welfare and food-stamp recipients along with healthcare and educational pro- grams, will seem to yield less than desirable results for those currently dependent on such programs and the Black Panther Organization sees its opportunity to address these issues. Hilliard stated that the movement "survived by doing something to generate interest and to capture the imaginations of the people."

By thai, I mean I go directly 10 the store I need and I parkmy car as quickly as possi- ble. I do not fight or wait for somespot to open up next to the handicapspots 'cause it takes just as long to do that as it does tojust parkand walk 3 exira feet. I makemy way 10 the door going overexactly what I need and etch thepath out in my head. I envi- sion the aisle where the knick- knackI am yearning for is sitting there. "Scott. .. buy me. Please." Mypalms sweat with excitement. Assoon as I gel near, others notice my excitement and slowly moveaway. A few lewd com- mentsabout my sanity escape theirchapped lips. Crowds bother me. No, let me rephrasethat. Stupid people both- er me. It seems that common Senseis flushed right along with patience and respect as soon as oneopens the door to Regency Mall. Even I, in my shopping glory, can be seen wandering aim- lessly sometimes, like a senile dog who doesn't know where he is. Usually my girlfriend is looking at girlie things at this point. I congregate, with the other manly men who would rather look lost that tell his woman that the bra she is choosing is remarkable well made. "But will it hold? We don't want a spillage now, do we?" So in all fairness, yes, I shop. I get what I need and I get the hell out. I don't want to "browse". That is nothing more than a fancy term for reminding myself how poor college makes me. I don't want to parade either, in hopes of being noticed by some chicky-poo working "in that place." One: I am taken and very happy with her. Two: I don't shop in her store. Three: I gena hurry and get horne 'cause The Simpsons are on in five! It's nice to not try on every piece of clothing that was ever made before we find 'just the right one." I am a man. I shop. She Said ... AMANDA BULGRIN There is nothing more wonder- fulthanscooping up a heck of a dealat the GAP The thrill of a great bargain sends my emotions soaring;it makes my heart skip a beat. In all honesty, I love to pur- chase,but I hate shopping. The worst thought in the world to me is being crammed into a mallcrowded with screaming kids, money hungry consumers, and that mallsecurity guy skulking around withhis walkie talkie. There are two types of shoppers, theones who fly through the place likea bat outta hell, knocking peo- pleover as they cruise back to their car. They are in, out and back home in four seconds. I can't deal withthis, these people give all shoppersa bad narne. Worse than that are the browsers. They mill around, slow- lyambling from one store to the nextwith no idea of what they Wantor need to purchase. They try onthe same pair ofjeans sixteen timesbefore they decide to "wait untilnext time, it isjust too diffi- cult of a decision to make." In my mind, these people should be shot. I am the middle of the road shopper. I take my time and make sure that I get a deal, but the is no nonsense about my trip to the mall. I make sure to park strategically. That is the key to a successful shopping excursion. I personally park as close to the GAP as possi- ble. I make sure that I am not by a food court or some other high traf- fic areas. This makes for a quick get away if shopping isgetting me down. Another key to proper, middle of the road shopping is planning. Now, I am not saying that I make a list of all of the items that I intend to purchase, no, that would be anal. Ijust try to organize a bit to save a little time. The last, and most peculiar is that I always shop alone. See, this is the deal. I get so annoyed by other shoppers that I can not enjoy the shopping experience with a miller or a flier. No one shops at the same speed so I opt to go alone. Sure, I may look like a dark. but I am one happy clam. Idiots beware COMPILED BY KENDRA MACEY New students, allow me to set the scene: You've recently taken your first test of the semester. When grades come back, instead of the A you were expecting! hop- 109 to get! on your (now scabby) knees praying for, you're holding back the tears to keep that vision of a big, fat D from blurring. Feeling like an idiot already? If your response was yes, maybe or "Huh?", then apparently you can relate. So, whatever can you do now to bring your deflated ego back up to full-pressure? Here's an incredibly-wise suggestion: read about people even stupider than...yourselves; you're bound to feel instantly better' And so I have provided here, for your read- ing pleasure, a few primo exam- ples of sheer stupidity taken directly from Ross & Kathryn Petras' (these are the authors, peo- ple) outstanding production, The 176 Stupidest Things Ever Done, . kindly brought to you by those simultaneously hip and intelligent folks at Doubleday. I now present you with 5 of the stupidest things ever done. Why five, you ask? Because it's a nice odd number; man, you really are stupid!

This is where a burglar in Longmont, Colorado went wrong. All was going well at the store he was attempting to rob. He was busy prying open the front door In the upcoming student gov- ernment elections, Uw-Parksidc students have the opportunity to continue support for the nation's oldest and most effective state student association. The United' Council of UW Students, found- ed in 1960, is Wisconsin's only statewide student advocacy and research organization. United Council is funded by a state ref- erendum with a mandatory refundable fee of 95 cents per student per semester. So, what does your 95 cents actually get you? United Council employees eight staff members who advocate for stu- dents at the UW System, state and federal level, and it links students statewide by offering information, guidance, research and service on student issues. All United Council policy is with a crowbar. Then he stopped. Something seemed a little wrong.... He looked up. A number of people were inside the store. And they were staring at him. At this moment, the master burglar real- ized that the store was still open. On Cleaning Elevators, Up and Downs In: Ajanitor at the Marriott Hotel in Bristol, England, was asked to clean an elevator. Thejob took him four full days. His confused supervisor asked him why it had taken so long. Replied the janitor, "Well, there are twelve of them, one on each floor, and sometimes some of them aren't there." Apparently the man had thought that each floor had a dif- ferent elevator- so he went to each floor and cleaned the same elevator twelve separate times. On Criminals, GuUible: Police needed a confession from a not-too-bright criminal in Radnor, Pennsylvania. Unfortunately, the station didn't have a lie detector, so the police decided to improvise. They put the criminal's head in a metal colander and attached wires from the colander to a copi- er machine. Meanwhile, they put a piece of paper in the copier that said: HE'S LYING. Every time the criminal denied his role in the crime, the cops pressed the COPY button and the message HE'S LYING came out of the machine. Seeing this high-tech example of a modem police force working so inexorably well, the criminal confessed. On Explanations, Too Precise: There's a time to be specific determined by delegates from member campuses who meet regularly to take positions on issues and direct the work of the staff. United Council is a national leader for its work on federal financial aid and voter registra- tion. Working with students government associations from • across Wisconsin and the nation, United Council used grassroots support from students and par- ents-in addition to direct lobby- ing- to help restore $4.9 billion in financial aid awards last year. United Council has worked to maintain and strengthen student fee autonomy, and has been a clearinghouse of information and research on student safety issues, including e-mail privacy and the use of social security numbers as student ID numbers. and a time to keep your mouth shut. Barty Shoemaker of Harlingen, Texas, learned it the hard way. He wound up being arrested because he was painstak- ingly specific. To be more precise: Shoemaker was at a meeting of the Harlingen city commission, watching the proceedings and enjoying a smoke. The city man- ager noticed him in the audience and explained that no cigarette smoking was allowed. Would he please put it out? Shoemaker got technical. "It's not a cigarette," he explained. "It's ajoint." On Insecticide, Swallowing: A Turkish farmer was taken to the hospital with severe stomach pains. After examining him, the doctor was very confused. Apparently, the farmer was suffer- ing because he had swallowed insecticide. But there was only a very small amount in his system, which ruled out a suicide attempt. So how- or why- had the man ingested insecticide? The farmer explained that it had been no accident. He had deliber- ately taken insecticide. And for good reason.' He had accidentally swallowed a fly. "I wanted to kill it before it reproduced inside of me," he said... So you see, there are people walking the planet (no doubt, with their knuckles dragging behind them) that are far more mindless than the average Parkside student, so take heart. And while you're at it, take some vitamins- you want to preserve those remaining, brain cells. Peace out. Credit transfers, a recurring headache for many students in Wisconsin, have been made easi- er through United Council's work with UW System and the state legislature. And UW System's Design for Diversity plan to increase representation of traditionally underrepresented students and faculty. As the leader of a statewide coalition, United Council suc- cessfully opposed an assembly bill which would have legalized discrimination against many stu- dent renters. Additionally, United Council played an instru- mental role in defeating the Extra Credit Tax, which would have increased tuition for many students at UW-Parkside and across the UW System. _Timothy L.

The female Carthage student was in an isolated music room in the Johnson Art Center on February 10, when a suspect turned out the lights to the practice room, placed a hat over her face and attacked her. The suspect is a 25-30 year old white male with short, strawberry blond hair and a light 5 o'clock shadow. He is an unknown man approximately 6 feet tall with a muscular, "football like build." He was wearing a dark brown, waist length leather bomber coat and black suede or leather gloves. According to Detective Kristine Block of the Kenosha Police In the wake of the Chancellor's statement regarding harassment, the Ranger News spoke with Charlotte Westerhaus, the assistant to the Chancellor for Equity and Diversity. As stated in the Feb. 13 issue of the Ranger News, stu- dents, faculty and staff who feel they are victims of sexual harass- ment, or any other form of harass- ment, should contact the Affirmative Action office at ext 2369 or visit Wyllie Hall 340. Asked who the typical victim is, Westerhaus said that there are no typical victims. Anybody who feels that he/she is harassed or dis- criminated against based on race, religion, gender or other differ- ences is a victim of harassment. There is no typical form of harass- ment experienced on campus. There are incidents that range from the most subtle to the most overt, and most are ~ either sexual or racist in nature. Every incident that occurs on campus differs in some respects, but all can tarnish personal feelings of equity and human dignity. Victims should get suggestions and learn how to deal with the various forms of harassment. A majority of incidents occur when the offending individual feels that he/she won't get caught. These are often the worst and most isolated of the incidents. Other incidents occur in more public forms, though most take place in private. or when there are no witnesses. The most difficult cases occur when the perpetratortries to stay anonymous, such as in the act of passing anonymous letters.

Mardi Gras is Fat Tuesday, a day in which it is per- missible to eat large quantities of any- thing and everything. Teams composed of either a group of friends or an organized student club compete for points in daily events. At the end of the week, prize money goes into their private account. A parade through the concourse area, beginning at the LI level of the Union and ending at Main Place, will serve as announcement of the win- ners. "At that point we'U announce the winner for the week-long compe- tition. By the end of the week it's whatever club has accumulated the most points," said Heather Flohr, Winter Carnival chair. The carnival kicked off on Monday with popcorn, cotton candy, and free carnival games. A Pie Toss gave stu- dents the opportunity to ridicule their professors and other'students, A scavenger hunt took place on Tuesday, and then on Wednesday competition events took place. Thursday's events are a "Family Feud" show at noon and a "Comedy Sportz" show at 8 p.m, Both events will he in the Union Square. Flohr, who also serves as vice president of Student Organizations Council (SOC), explained that the ''Comedy Spartz" show is an improv comedy group. Also, each team may paint a win- dow panel on the Union bridge "and relate it to their team or club," explained Lundskow. That panel is "also an event. And even though the winners of this year's carnival have not even been announced yet, Lundskow encourages students who enjoy the carnival to help plan it for next year.

From time to time, pver a period of two years, unidentified members of the staff at Parkside have received anony- mous letters, presumably from stu- dents. As the letters were' received, however, victims apparently chose not to report !he instances right away. This delayed response tends to lead to and promote further harassment: Several instances of harassment have been reported recently, but not imme- diately following !he incident There was also one instance of a student being harassed in a classroom.

ESTABLISHED 1972 A Statement from the Chancellor I was distressed 10 learn that recently a numbersof incidentsof . harassment have occurred on our campus. Harassment is a fonn of repeated demeaning verbal and other expressive behavior, in instructional and non-instructional settings. The behavior can be harmful to another's work and study performance, or to the work, study- or service environment It can 'seriously interfere with the learning or performance of univer- sity faculty, staff or students and is hostile, intimidating, or demeaning to university faculty, staff or stu- dents of a particular gender. race, cultural background, ethnicity, sex- ual orientation, or disability. Such behavior is reprehensible and will not be tolerated by the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. Harassment has no place in any setting but certainly not in a institu- tion of higher education. In both obvious and subtle ways, the very possiblility of harassment is destructive to individual faculty, staff and students, and to the acad- ernie cummunity as a whole. When, through the fear of reprisal, a faculty member, staff member, or student submits, or is pressured to submit, to harassment, the University's ability to carry out its mission is undermined. " The University's educational mission"is promoted by forging and maintaining ~ supportive and toler- ant campus atmosphere for all fac- ulty, staff and students. Any indi- vidual who believes that he or she has been the subject of and/or wit- nessed an occurance of harassment is encouraged to promply report the incident to the Office of Equity and Diversity; Dean of Students, Deans, and/oupervisors. Please join me in creating a teachingflearning environment where each person can reach his/her fullest potential. 'j February 13, 199? page~ ,.~ ,oM Volunteer of the week Award/from page 1 Students are selected as "Volunteer of the Week" on the basis of their altruistic attitudes, the amount of time shared within the community and the positive impact their service has made in the lives of others. This week's volunteer is Goran Jankovic. Goran Jankovic, a sophomore Chemistry major, became a mem- ber of the Parks ide Volunteer Program in October of 1995 when he began volunteering at the Kenosha Hospital and Medical Center in the emergency room. Along with helping at a few on- campus events, Goran has volun- teered 150 hours. Not recorded are the many volunteer hours of lab work he does with Dr. Dale Wheeler. His club involvement includes the Pre-Health Club and the Chemistry Club. Helping to stay physically fit and to control stress levels, Goran credits his 15- year participation in Tae K won Do. Diane Andrekus, Kenosha Hospital Volunteer Coordinator, relayed information about Goran from John Hollister, Patient Care Coordinator for the Emergency Room. John thinks Goran would numbers follow in the summary dealing with can liners, toner car- tridges, etc. The seventh and final qualification discussed the information and educa- tion provided at UW-Parkside regarding environmental awareness. Faculty, staff and students may recall hearing former Governor Gaylord Nelson, the founder of Earth Day, speak on Earth Day of '95. There were special displays and articles in the campus newspaper. At the pre- sent moment, the glass display in Main Place highlights the special . award granted to Parkside. Mary Ruetz encourages students to participate in this honorable endeavor. "Our Recycling Comnnittee would like you to take part in any of our environmental pro- jects. Right now, we could use some help planning our annual Earth Day celebration. Give me a call at ext. 2667 if you want to do something hands-on for the environment; or if you simply want to share your ideas with us." If students, faculty or staff have any questionsor would like more infer- mation on the campus' waste reduc- tion and recycling program, they can contact Bill Streeter at 595-2141 or Mary Ruetz at 595'2667. the amount of paper used by way of "ordering fewer phone books, mak- ing two-sided copies wherever possi- ble and reducing incoming junk mail." Faculty and staff also "refill toner cartridges for our laser printers and reuse file folders, paycheck envelopes, plastic packing materials and boxes." The fifth qualification described UW-Parkside's recycling efforts. Parkside recycles approximately sev- enteen tons of cardboard each year. Mary Ruetz gave special mention to the custodians on campus for their . part in this effort. They are known to pick recyclables out of the general' trash bins and put them into their appropriate receptacles. Concerning the sixth qualification regarding buying recycled items, Streeter responded in his summary that, "We practice the philosophy that recycling means both collecting recyclables and buying products with recycled content. After all, diverting waste from landfills is helpful only if it is made into some- thing else that people want to buy." He followed this statement with efforts to "[close] the loop" during 1995. According to the summary, UW-Parkside purchased 34,744 pounds of recycled paper. Other Erator's garbage pulper. As stated in the summary, "This new innovative machine, designed by In-Sink- Erator, removes 75 percent of the liquid from our food-service trash and results in far less volume being sent to the landfill." The fourth qualification outlined the campus' methods of waste reduction and reusing products. By donating to charities all re-usable items left behind by the residential housing students, waste is reduced. Paper is saved by electronic means now becoming popular among facul- ty, staff and students such as "using voice mail or email, making reports and data available on-line." There are items outlined in the summary that describe how the campus reduces Goran Jankovic be an excellent selection for the Volunteer of the Week. He said, "Goran is dependable, helpful, mature and has a positive attitude." Volunteering at the hospital has allowed Goran first hand experi- ence. '''I have observed how vari- ous health care professionals work together to provide patient care," reported Goran. "My experiences in the ER have confirmed my inter- est in pursuing a career in the field of medicine and at the same time has allowed me to help patients as well as the staff. It provides me with an atmosphere outside of the academic setting in terms of preparing me for medical school" Thanks, Goran, for maintaining high standards. and doing a top quality job. Correction: In the February 6 issue of The Ranger News the article entitled "Students host on-campus rave" stated some facts incorrectly. The expected attendance for the Jan. 31 rave was 500 with an actual attendance of approxi- mately 10. Based on the antici- pated number of participants in the activity and the amount of space used, University Activities and Union staff hired 4 officers to monitor the rave. There were no state patrol cars on hand. According to policy, a "beer garden" is allowed if all partici- pants are over the age of 18. In this case alcohol was not served because all attendants were not 18; The University never allows "pass-outs" of alcohol. The University Cinema does not sell alcohol. Inner Loop Road was not shut off to traffic. The south entrance to the Union was restricted in order to control admission, how- ever; no doors were sealed off. The admissions office was not intending the dance to promote recruitment. VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES EDUCATION CONSULTANT FOR JUNIOR ACHIEVE· MENT. Teach Racine young people business and economics.

Union Square International Women's Day in March The Women's History Month Committee will hold an international Fair in honor of "International Women's Day" in March. The F~ir will be held on March 3, from 10 a.m.· 2 p.m., in Main Place. We are hoping to make this a student effort by asking students to make the displays. We would like to see several countries represented in the fair, and in order to see that happen, we will need many stu. dents to help. Any group or individual interested can create a display for the country of their choice (it need not be lavish or expensive). The display can cover as many years as preferred. For example: France from 1650· 1750, or the USA from 1900.present. Also, the creators can choose which aspects of that coun- try to highlight (politics, fashion, art, literature, etc.) The only thing we do require is that women be heavily included in the display, since it's for International Women's Day. In addition, we are looking for several different ethnic dancers and/or dance groups, to perform dur- ing the lunch' hour. All dancers would have their names entered into the drawing for prizes as well. ALL WHO PARTICIPATE IN CREATING DIS. PLAYS WILL HAVE THEIR NAMES PUT IN A RAF· HE DRAWING FOR CASH PRlZES AND ITEMS FROM DIFFERENT CAMPUS VENDORS.

The ads were right. She is very outspoken and controversial. Yet, what the ads did not say is that she has a great sense of humor also. She does not take life too seriously, but seriously enough to get her point across. She started by addressing only the women in the audi- ence. Women are the "moth- ers of the universe, the moth- ers of all men, which includes Newt Gingrich and Dennis Rodman." She received a lot of laughter for that. She continues, "I hope I'm not standing in front of women who are still waiting to exhale." More laughter and applause. Today, women do not wait around. They speak up. Maya Angelou was raped and could not speak up for a long time, but look where she is now. Hillary Clinton speaks up and up and up, "She will be heard no matter how much they [I wonder whether she meant men or congress"] try to shut her up." She addressed the men next. There's a rumor that the black man is an endan- gered species, "so why don't we treat black men like we treat the bald eagle? .. Brothers, you are judged by your peers ... We have poster boys like Mike Tyson. a poster boy for rape, yet . William Kennedy's a poster boy for practicing medicine. Clarence Thomas is a poster boy for sexual harassment, yet Senator Packwood ... [is not]," Dr. Julia Hare continued, why are black men endan- gered species? Possibly because women are looking for the successful black man, who wears a three-piece suit, and carries a briefcase. Women need to start looking at the blue collar worker. They may not dress fancy, but many of them have a heart bigger than most busi- ness men. Perhaps women are look- ing for the jocks, and not the PC nerds -, Look very seri- ously at the PC nerds. They are the smart ones. Booker T. Washington was a nerd, and look at his success. Stuffto do TROY GETTER FEATURES INTERN Television sucks and you don't have many bucks.

Jocks have no jobs. Nerds have jobs. Every woman wants a BMW (Black Man Working), she claimed. Dr. Julia Hare also addressed the "new" Ebonies decision. Ebonies are just a band-aid. The adults have "thrown in the towel and think this child is incapable of learning." [This subject really interests me, I wish she had spent more time on this.] Black families are in crisis, Hare states. How does the familyrestore itself! Instead of complaining about the "white", the "Korean", the "anyone", who owns the store, the black fami Iy needs to buy their own store. Hare also stated that white social workers take black children away from their families. The social worker would take away the child because they did not see "family values:', good food in the refrigerator, etc. Perhaps the social worker did not know what grits, collard greens and black-eyed peas were. They could not see family values and nutrition, because they were looking for the white family's idea of values and nutrition and not the black family's. She then addressed all the students at UW-Parkside by saying that they need to set goals for the year 2000. Join every organization on campus to see what they are, ask questions, get answers, form new ideas, wonder about the world. There are dependents, co-dependents and independents. Independence is the only way to succeed. Hare concluded by say- ing, besides Black History Month, they should make every day a day to celebrate our differences. "Our com- mon goal is to respect and understand each other's her- itage. . .Be a leader .. .if you fall, try to fall on your back, because if you can look up, you can get up." While she was talking, I could see the audience clear- ly from my seat in the back of the lecture hall. I had to notice the ratio of black to white students in the room. It was about 75% to 25%. I also noticed they were each on opposite sides of the room. Now what does that say to you? If you'd like to obtain Dr. Julia Hare's books, contact me at: tartagli2it.uwp.edu. I was an Internet virgin COLEEN TARTAGLIA ENTERTAINMENT EDITOR My first experience with Internet Dating was a disaster. As an Internet virgin, the chat lines were not gentle with me. I was naive and inexperienced. I was very careful not to give my address and telephone number out, but I was less cautious with my heart and emotions, I let them fly all over the web. The web was very addicting to me at first. I was caught in a sticky domain, with no way out. My mind was addicted, I couldn't stop. The more I struggled to free myself of talking, the more entan- gled I became. I met people from Australia, Africa, and Europe. I would try to say, "So long, gotta go," but then another interesting person appeared, so I stayed, and stayed, up all night. talking, talking, revealing, exploring. Soon I bought a Rolodex to organize my new realm of possibilities. I had so many people spiraled into my web, I had to write down their stats and other info. Needless to say, I was carried away by this new reality. Yes. I had some cyber-boyfriends. My heart was broken by my first. He was from Denmark, his name was Josh* and he was studying in America to get a degree. I would talk to him daily, we wrote letters pouring out emotions. I'd rather not say how, but it unraveled in disaster. After him, I swore I would never speak another conso- nant or vowel to a cyber-rnan (spi- der), again. Yet, my web continued ... I had made some friends along the way. When Josh broke my heart, I turned to one of those friends, Rick", who lived in Indiana. Rick said, "Good, now will you give me a chance?" And I did. We were very good friends, he was not a spider, but it ended mutually, on a good basis. So again I said, "I will never write another consonant or vowel. . .etc." However, my web continued ... While we were at the end of our relationship. I was e-mailing another friend. (Ok, so he hap- pened to be a male also, so what?) He was an Italian man who lived in Palermo, Sicily, named Alberto'. I began talking to him, telling him what happened. Alberto said, "Colina, adesso mi darai una possibilita'?" (English version: Colleen, now will you give me a chance") My heart was entangled in his Italian web. I gave Alberto a chance, but not at first. It took me a long time to trust "cyberly" again. We ended up meeting last summer. He spent $5,000 to come to America. Alberto spoke very little English, but could read and write it very well. I spoke no Italian. We com- municated through writing on paper, and sometimes writing on my PC. The other times we used body language, and played a lot of charades. People who saw us thought we were absolutely crazy! But we didn't care, we were hav- ing a great time! He stayed for 5 weeks, then had to leave. Our web unraveled slowly, painfully, and with a lot of strug- gle. For legal reasons, he can't live in America, and because of economic reasons, I can't live in Italy. We still write weekly through e-mail, send packages, and are the very best of friends . We are loves turned friends, because of laws and economics. I have not said goodbye to the Internet. However, the chat lines are a things of the past for me. I do visit the Singles places some- times. These past two years have made me wiser to the web. I can tell if someone's a spider by the way he writes. I have had my share of spiders, and met a few decent men from the Internet, but none of them have ever compared to my Italian love, Alberto. None of them will ever compare to him. Needless to say, I shall go on... *Names have been changed to protect the gui Ity. l Wrestling through tough times Grapplers could be without their star ALHEPPNER . SPORTS EDITOR In a dual meet against UW- Stevens Point last week, about the worst thing that could have happened to UW-Parkside, hap- pened. Last year's NCAA II National Runner-Up Jeremie on blew out his knee during his match. He was forced to default, causing a nine point swing that allowed Point to nip UWP 18-16. But of much more concern was the condition of on, "At first we feared his career .might be over. But in the five days since, his knee has fell much better," Coach Jim Koch said. At press time, Ott was under- going an MRI. There is still a chance he could wrestle at NCAA II Regionals, which are less than three weeks away. Roger Spear (126), Brad Shefchik (142), D.C. Lewis (150), Tim Wyler (158), and Andy Tubbs (190) were all win- ners in the meet against Point. Shefchik won a major decision with a 21-7 triumph. Over the weekend, the team traveled to the Wheaton Invitational where the UWP fin- ished 7th out of 33 teams. Spear sat out with an injury. while Trevor Hasenjager (118) and Shefchik both took second in the meet. Hasenjager lost a heartbreaker in the final, 6-4. Tubbs was 5th, while heavy- weight Miles Weaver took 7th. "Injuries have really hun OUf record. This is the first time in 17 years that we will finish with a losing dual meet record," Koch said. But their 2-7 dual record is quite deceiving. All of their dual meet opponents are ranked in the top five nationally in their respective divisions. Not exact- ly a cake walk. Koch also said that many of the schools in the area don 't want to wrestle his team, because they have no chance of beating UWP. In addition to OU's injury, Spear Jeremie Ott and Wyler among others have spent time on the injured list this season. "If I had known we'd have all these injuries. I wouldn't have red-shirted so many wrestlers," said Koch. "We still could pos- sibly finish in the top ten at Nationals." Currently, the Rangers are ranked 18th in the nation, most- lyon the strength of their invita- tional performances. This weekend they face a Marquette team having its best season In many years. Track runs with Sarnow Division One' and 4 ~ore qualify for S ftb II nationals 0 a ALHEPPNER SPORTS EDITOR The UW-Parkside Women's Track Team truly ran with the best last weekend in the SalukilMcDonald Invitational at SIU-Carbondale. Stacked against NCAA Division I teams, UWP more than held their own. Once again it was Pam Tucker and Wendy Licht pulling out the victories. Licht won the 5000 meter run (18:06.47) and Tucker the mile (5:05). Tucker's time broke her person- al best by three seconds. Danielle Kirk and Margaret Ditchburn chipped in points with a one. two finish in the 3000 meter racewalk. Kirk (13:45.38) and Ditchburn (14:05.53) both set personal bests and qualified for the USA Track and Field Indoor Championships in Atlanta. In the men's 3000 racewalk, AI Heppner, Dave Michielli, and John Nunn swept the medal's table. Heppner's time of 12:31.59 also qualified him for Atlanta. Jill Branner (10:23.44) took her running to the next level by shattering her old best time in the 3000 meter run and quali- fying for the NAIANational Championships. "This was an excellent meet. We had 15 athletes compet- ing and nine personal best times. That's exceptional," said Coach Mike De Witt. Despite only taking 15 athletes, the women finished sev- enth out of eleven teams in the prestigious field with 24 points. SIU-Carbondale won the meet with 149 points.

On Feb. I, the University of Wisconsin-Parkside Men's basketball team not onlygot that chance, but capitalized on it in theirown backyard. The Rangers knocked off the NCAA Division II number one ranked University of Indianapolis,63-45, at the Parkside Gymnasium, handing the visitors their first loss of~heseason, and ending the nation's longest active winning streak at ] 8 games. Steve Sanders led UW-Parkside with a game Virus Alert APRIL SCHOENBERG MANAGING EDITOR Internet users beware! The Internet community is once again plagued by a computer virus. Instead of a destructive trojan virus (like most viruses) this virus, referred to as Deeyenda Maddick, performs a comprehensive search on your computer, looking for valuable information such as e-mail and login passwords, credit cards, personal information and so forth. The Deeyenda virus is virtually undetectable, and once attacked, your computer will be Insecure. Some viruses in the past have proven to be a hoax, however; University of Wisconsin- Parkside's Student Government Vice-President, Jason Weniger learned the reality of the virus after Deeyenda got a hold of his computer. "My $3000 computer has now become a paper- weight." shared Weniger frus- tratingly. Weniger learned of the virus about two weeks ago and has been warning fnends f page 7/Basketball Levi Bradley f Students host on-campus rave I about it. The Deeyenda virus is also capable of staying in memory for a long time while running a host of applications and opera- tion systems, such as Windows 3.11 and Windows 95. What this means (Q internet users is that when a login and PASS- WORD are sent to the server, this virus can COPY this infor- mation and send it out to an unknown address. The nature of the virus and the security risks it causes are the reason for all of the attention it has received. Although i·tcan attack any as, this virus is most likely to attack those users viewing Java enhanced Web Pages (Netscape 2.0+ and Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0+, which are run- ning on Windows 95.) If you receive the Deeyenda virus, you should delete it immediately. Virus problems can usually be remedied with a disinfect program that will remove the virus. However, be aware that disks infected with the virus have the potential of reinfecting your computer. was held. Additionally, Inner Loop Road was closed off to traf- fic. And all of the doors to the Union, except for the entrance from the Union parking lot, were sealed off. "We were expecting that problem because they gave us rules of no pass-out alcohol. I've been to university activities for the last eight years - it's been the first one with a no-alcohol rule because of non-students being there," said Hansen. Hansen said he witnessed alcohol being sold to stu- dents entering the Union cinema who he said "were obviously not students." "There's been some miscommunication," said Rich Karwatka, Student Organization Council (S.O.c.) presi- dent. "People (were) running off and doing things with- out asking first." But Karwatka said he was only involved in the "outskirts" of planning the event. Hansen said that the club wants to be recognized but not to receive funding. The club was formally recognized last semester, with a status similar to that of Intervarsity Christian Fellowship (IVCF) and the fraternities on cam- pus. "They're recognized as a club by SOC, but because in their constitution they charge dues, they are not eligible for funding," said Karwatka. In the club's constitution is a statement of purpose to promote UW-Parkside. The Admissions office planned to use the event as a See Rave/page 2 KRISTINE HANSEN RANGER REPORTER A ne~ly formed club at the University of Wisconsin- Parksldehad its first official event in an unofficial way - arave in the Parkside Union coupled with disc jockeys anda live band.

Full house at lecture on spiritual decline JASON KLUZAK NEWS INTERN Union 104 was packed with faculty and interested listeners when University of Wisconsin- Parkside history professor Thomas Reeves delivered a lec- ture regarding the question: "Is America a Christian Nation?" on Wednesday, January 29, Approximately 50 to 60 people attended, Reeves provided those that attended with a brief lecture on church history and its movement across the seas into colonial America. America has histori- cally been a Christian nation. During the Reformation, there were conflicts between the Catholic and Protestant clergy when the issue of mingling church and state came up. Despite the differences, few early Americans doubted their relationship with God, The resolution to this and other religious conflicts came with the drafting of the First Amendment. Reeves emphasized that "America was founded on the freedom of religion and not from religion," In the 1950's, church attendance in America was at a peak and Reeves termed this decade "the Golden Age of Religion." At that time, President Eisenhower attended a Prayer Breakfast and it was there that the popular phrase, "In God We Trust," became our national motto. Also at this event the two words, "...under God ... " were added to our Pledge of Allegiance, Along with this background, Reeves gave statistics indicative of our country's dedication to its religion. These statistics appeared to be optimistic about the state of the church in modern PCOC Looks For Volunteers JEl'iNIFER PUCCINI FEATURE EDITOR For all you students who are interested in volunteering some of your time to your community either for volunteer time towards your major or for pleasure, think about joining the PCOC (Parkside's Community Outreach Club), This club is involved with events in both Racine and Kenosha counties and other counties as well.

He described our current faith as having "lost its authenticity" and as having, . "absorbed ideas and attitudes that will lead to the demise of Christianity." After the lecture, Reeves, who has authored and edited len books, hosted a book signing for his book The Empty Church' The Suicide of Liberal Christianity. He has also authored the New York Times Best Seller A Question of Character,' A Life of John F Kennedy, The Life and Times of Joe McCarthy,' A Biography, and Gentleman Boss: The Life of Chester Alan Arthur.

Cynthia Jensen is the club's advisor and a strong right arm in boosting sup- port.

Tickets were sold from the Information Desk in the Parkside Union, Complimentary tickets were also given to WPRS, Parksidc's radio station. "We strategically comped about 300 tickets - 25 for WKTI to give away on their morning show, we camped both the basketball teams but we don't know what happened to them," said Hansen. "We comped a couple of the high schools, Bradford and Tremper, Carthage (College) actually pushed our event for us, They stamped like 50 flyers:' Also, to encourage dancing at the rave, they gave tickets to people who they saw danced well in local clubs that they attended, About the lower than expected attendance at the rave, "a lot of 1 our problems had to do with Union 209, They didn't like what we were doing," said f Hansen. The club had originally planned a rave for last ( December, called the Santa Rave, and planned to donate pro- I ceeds for charitable means, food for families. It was cancelled l! because the club was not fonned I I days before the event - a uni- ( versity rule.
