Crimestatistics for 1989·91 UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN - PARKSIDE provides activity glimpse at on campus are provided in the brochure. The statistics show that most of the criminal activity that takes place on campus falls into either thepetty theft or liquor law violations cat- egories. According to the brochure, in 1991 there were 134thefts reponed. That compares with 106 in 1990 and 116 in 1989. In 1991, there were 50liquor law violations, com- pared to 72 in 1990 and 21 in 1989. AIthough the Crime Aware- ness and Campus Security Actdoes not require disclosure of theft sta- tistics, Ostrowski said that he felt it was a good idea to let.students and employees at UW·Parkside know about that aspect of crime on cam- pus. "It's not appropriate for us to skip over what our major problem ison this campus," said Ostrowski. "We made a conscious effort to include that particular statistic." The brochure deals with gen- eraI precautions that every memo ber of the campus community can utilize to help prevent crime.

In most cases, no one really knows what causes high blood pres- sure, although several other risk factors have been identified: ex- treme emotions, heredity, obesity, use of tobacco, drugs and alcohol, age, race, physical activity ,level of cholesterol, and excess salt intake in the diet Even though you can't change the elements of age, race, or heredity, there are things you can do about other risk factors. To decrease your chance of developing high blood pressure, you should: stop smoking (oraVOId starting), exercise more, mam~n a healthy diet (which means eanng less if you are overweight), reduce cholesterol and saItintake and learn to reduce your stress. . According to the Amencan Heart Association, 60 million Americans suffer from high blood pressure, but nearly half of them are not aware that they are aff"':ted by this life-threatening condiuo n . High blood pressure is someumes the brochure reads. The brochure also outlines UW-Parkside's policy on treat- ment options for people with al- cohol or other drug abuse prob- lems. Other crime statistics were given in the brochure. In 199I, there were no reponed murders, forcible <apes, robberies, aggra- vated assaults, motor vehicle thefts, incidents of arson or inci- dents of possession of controlled substances. There was one reo ported burglary and one weapons violation. In 1990, there were four re- poned burglaries and three weap- ons violations. In 1989, there was one re- poned forcible rape, two aggra- vatedassaults, twoburglaries, one motor vehicle theft, two incidents ofpossession of acontrolled sub- stance and one weapons viola- tion. Ostrowski stressed that the prevention of crime atUW-Park- side depended upon the involve- ment of everyone on campus.

Just because you feel well does not mean that your blood pres- sure is normal, so it is advisable tohave yours checked frequentl y. Undetected (ornon-reduced) high blood pressure can lead to heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and kidney failure. Although there isnocure for high blood pressure, it can be controlled by medications and changes in lifestyle and diet.

Student athletes achieve four year high in semester GPA Andrew J. Patch Editor-In-ehler The semester grade point average of student athletes reached at least a four year high in the fall semester, with nearly halfofthe 234 totaIstudentsachievinga3.00rabove grade point average. In a semesterly report sub- mitted byDirector of Athletics Linda Draft to university administration, it was reponed that UW-Parkside stu- dent athletes had an average grade point average of 2.82 for the fall 1992 semester while maintaining an average of 14.5 credits. The stu- . dents' average cumulative GPA is 2.81. Students participating in softball, women'scross country, race walking, men's cross country and volleyball were the top performers inacademic pursuits. with more man half achieving higher than a 3.0 for the semester. The members of the women's cross country program re- poned the highest GPA with an avo erage of 3.18 while maintaining a class load of 15.3 credits each. Members of the wrestling program reponed thesemester's lowest GPA with an average of 2.39. A point of concern ex- pressed by Draft in the repon was the fact thai for the first time since the spring of 1991,minorities aver- aged below a 2.0 for the semester. She cautions that such a figure is misleading, however, in that the pool of minority student athletes is very small and thegroup average is negatively skewed by the perfor- mance of one or two students. For the first time since fall 1990, 14 percent of student athletes earned below a 'C' (2.0) average. At the same time, how- ever, more than 20 percent of stu- dent athletes were named to the Dean's List (3.5 or above) for the semester, making apparent a wide range in academic achievement. This year's numberof stu- dent athletes achieving a 3.0 or higher semester grade point aver- age reflects a five semester trend that has seen the percentage of stu- dent athletes scoring above a 3.0 rise from JUSl over thirty in fall 1988 to the current semester's 46. ----..;""..----------------- ! ~~~~~~~~ _=__ __ _:..:Fe::bru~~17, THE RANGER NEWS, Page 2 _ ~ WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 17 WORK SHARE FAIR - Upper Main Place; II a.m. to I p.m.; sponsored by PASA; all original UW -Parkside works.

According to Sheila Kaplan, UW.Parkside chancellor, the state andtheUW Board of Regents are going in the direction of having students pay for more of the ser- vices they receive at UW System institutions. Feesthat are being considered atUW-Parkside are an Orientation Fee,alate Registration Fee, a Drop Courses or Credit Change Fee, a Graduation Fee, a Transcript Fee and aCatalog Fee, according to G. GaryGrace, Assistant Chancellor forStudent Affairs. The UW-Parkside Adminis- 1l11liveCouncil is considering the fees and will make arecommenda- tionto Kaplan. Kaplan says that it has been her philosophy that state funds shouldpay for student services. "Forthe five and one-half years I'vebeenhere (at UW-Parkside), I haverejected any ideas of what I call'nickel and diming' students," she said. However, Kaplan says that the state and the Regents have not been going in that direction in recent years. "That is not the general prac- tice in the UW System, nor is it the general direction that the Board of Regents isgoing in," noted Kaplan. "At the direction of the Regents, System is taking a new look at the whole issue of specialized fees." Kaplan says that she sympa- "I sympathize with students who would be affected by new student service fees." -Sheila Kaplan thizes with students who would be affected by new student service fees. ."Do [think it's the best way to go? No," she said. "I don't like nickel and diming. On the other hand, it isthe fee for servicesdirec- tion that the Regents are telling us to go in. "If I had my druthers," said Kaplan, "you'd never see this kind of thing."

"It's difficult to say what's fair, what's' appropriate," said Grace. "It all depends on your perspective." Grace a[sonotes that student fees have been going up at col- leges and universities around the country in recent years. "From a national perspec- tive," commented Grace, "the state public colleges and univer- sities have been in the process of implementing more and more fees since the early eighties." Grace also said that he felt most people involved in student affairs positions believe that there are some fees students should not have to pay for. "Most of usbelieve that there isa core of essential services that should be provided for students." said Grace. Kaplan said that although some of the UW System's stu- dent service fees seem rather un- fair, like the fee for an official narne change charged at UW- Madison, there are other fees that could have a positive impact on Continued on Page 4 WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1993 Time for Twister!

Waller releases book on teaching techniques for crack.cocaine-affected children Gary Parker News Writer Mary Bellis Waller is fight- ing in the war against drugs by aiding crack-affected children. Waller, Clinical Assistant Professor and Preceptor of Clini- cal Programs in Teacher Educa- tionat UW-Parkside hasauthored a new book entitled, Crack Af- fected Children: A Teacher's Guide. The book will be reieased this week at an Association of Teacher Educators Conference in Los Angeles. The book is the result of two years of research by Waller into the problems of teaching chil- dren whose mothers took crack cocaine during pregnancy. She has conducted over 200 inter- views with teachers and parents on the topic and has previously published articles on the subject in Educational Leadership and People and Schools. The book is divided into two sections. Part one describes the crack-affected child as a fetus, in- fant, preschooler and school-age child. Parttwo islarger and explains how to teach thecrack-affected child. This section details 18specific teach- ing iechniques used to leach these children, such as reducing stimuli, using only one teaching style, teach- ing without creativity and teaching with repetition. Waller says she first became interested in the topic when she wit- nessed theabnormal behavior ofthree crack-affected children in the class- room of a student teacher she was observing. Since then she has be- come an expert in teaching crack- affected children. "Coke locks kid in the 'on' position," she says. "Their ncr- vousstimulation isalready too high, so with any added stimulation, they freak out," she adds. Waller points out that many of the teaching techniques used to teach crack-affected children arc the opposite of those used to stimu- late learning in normal children. As babies, crack-affccied chilo dren are overstimulated and sent into frenzies by such normal ac- tivities as talking and eye comact, Holding or cuddling the child is overwhelming and can be like lor- ture for the child. That is why reducing the stimuli is so important in teaching thecrack-affected child. Anything in the room that could cause Qverstimulation such as book- shelves, picluresand projectors has Conlinued on Page 8 February 10, I 'TIIE RANGER NEWS, Page 2 Love Carefully 1993 Chris Tishuk Assistant Feature Editor With. the coming of Valentine's Day, the Peer Health Educators are again sponsoring Love Carefully Day" On February 11 and 12 the PHE's will be avail- able in Upper Main Place from 10 to 2.

Gary Grace, Assistant Chancel- lor for Student Affairs. Thememo,datedJanuary 19, contains a chart that outlines fees that are currently permissible un- der OW System policy. The memo also states that the OW- Parkside Administrative Council is considering applying some of those fees to university services. "Although no decisions have been made to date," reads the memo, "it is likely that we will factor in some of the fees outlined here as we build the 1993-94 bud- get."

The suspect replied, "What! Do you havea problem with it?" and the student said he did, asking the sus- pectagain what he was doing in- side his car. The suspect exited the car, verbally challenging the student. The suspect then punched the stu- dentin the jaw.

According to Bovee, the fol- lowing fees are being considered at OW -Parkside: -Oriernation Fee, charged 10 all new students and transfers at a cost of $25, regardless of attendance at orientation events. An estimated 1000 students would use this service each year, resulting in an income of S25,OOO. Concerns over this fee include the financial hardship it would cause for some students. Non-traditional stu- dents are the largest group that does not attend orientation. -Withdrawal Fee,charged to stu- dents upon withdrawal from school at a cost of S25. An estimated 900 students would use this service each year, resulting in an income of $22,500. II is possible that students could be charged only for early with- drawal or for withdrawal after a cer- tain point in the term. -Late Registration Fee, charged to students who register late for the semester at a cost of up to $25. An estimated 200 students would use this service each year, resulting in an inceme of S5000. One concern is thai such a policy might encourage students to regis- ter early, thus resulting in a de- crease in income. -Drop Courses or Credit Change Fee, charged to students who drop courses after the tenth dayatacostof510percredit. An estimated 2500 credits would be dropped by students, resulting in an income of S25,ooo. -Graduation Fee, charged to the graduating class at acosrof'S 10 per student. This would cover the cost of commencement activities, transcripts and diplomas. An esu- mated 500 students would use this service each year, resulting in an income of 55000. -Transcript fee, charged to stu- dents upon request for transcript at Continued on Page 2 THE RANGER NEWS, Page 2 WLBR boasts new manager andanew outlook Dennis Clarke News Editor WLBR, UW-Parleside's little known and easily dismissed radio station, won't be so little known and easily dismissed if Vincent Bomer has any say. Bomer, a UW-Parkside psy- chology major, has recently been named station manager of WLBR, and he, along with a staff of ap- proximately 15 other students, has big plans for the campus'little sta- tion. "Our biggest goal fortheradio station is to enlighten students," comments Bomer. "Ourmission is to cater to the whole campus com- munity:' Bomer says that he wants the station to establish a voice for the entire campus, get people involved in campus activities and promote and market UW-Parleside. "There are followers and there are leaders. We'releadingthepack right now," says Bomer of himself and his staff. In order to familiarize students - with the new station and staff, Bomer has organized a party to be held tomorrow night in the Union Recreation Center. "It's going 10be the beginning of what I hope is going 10be a long lasting relationship with Parkside," says Bomer. Bomer says he hopes to have "It's going to be the beginning of what I hope is going to be a long lasting relation- ship with Parkside." - Vince Borner other promotions in the future to help generate interest in WLBR. He said he would like to work with the Student Organizations Council or the Parkside Activities Board to get ideas. Bomer also says he is anxious to hear ideas from as many stu- dents as possible. . "We'd like 10have input from everybody on the campus," Bomer says. "If people have something to say, bring iuo us. Tell us what it is that you feel or how you feel about asituation. "We're looking forward to getting a lot of letters and getting a lot of people involved." As far as musical program- ming goes, Bomer says that the station's philosophy is to cater to many diverse tastes as possible. "We're rrying to open the door tonew ideas andnew avenues, new programming," comments Bomer. "We're not limiting ourselves to anyone formal" Bomer, who has owned his own disc jockey service for the past ten years and who has worked at various radio stations and clubs in the Chicago and Milwaukee ar- eas, says that his experience will help him in his role as station man- ager. "We had a search and screen committee that went through ap- plications for several people who were interested in the position and based on my experience and back- ground, I got the position," says Bomer. "I think the connections I have from various endeavors make me a little more qualified." - January 27, 1993 - New student fees Continued from Page 1 a cost of $4 per request. An esti- mated 7000 requests would be made each year, resulting in an income of$28,OOO. UW-Parksidecurrently charges $3 per request. -Catalog Fee, charged to stu- dents who request more than onc course catalog at a cost of $3 per catalog. Under this plan, the first catalog would be free of charge, and a distribution system would need to be established to limiteach student 10one catalog. Bovee said that he believes students are suffering as a result of the UW System's lack of funds. "The Governor and the state legislature don't want 10raise taxes because that's a political night- mare," said Bovee. "They find it easier 10 put the cost (of the ser- vices) on our (students') backs." Bovee is worried about what he sees as a trend of forcing stu- dents to bear the bruntofbudgetary shortfalls. "If things keep going theWay they're going," commemsj Bovee "our tuitions are just going tokee~ going up and up and up." He notes that the OW System is not the first 10 consider these types of fees for services to Stu. dents. "All these things on thallisl are done at other schools (arOUnd the country)," he noted. For example, the University of Texas at Austin charges an ad- vising fee 10students depending on which school a student is enrolled. with a low of $25 for its School of Li beral Arts and a high of $200for its graduate School of Business. According to Bovee, no advising fees are being considered at UW. Parks ide. VVednesday, January 27 PAB will sponsor "Fun Flicks," in which you can make your own music video.

The terms of the probation are: Calsity is not to associate with fel- IlIS,CllIlIlOl use alcohol or controlled IlIbstances, cannot possess weap- IllS and is to avoid contact with llIyooe involved in the case. Also, Cassity is not to be on thepremisesofUW-Parksidewith- out permission from the court Cassity was arrested on Fri- day, October 2, 1992 when he ex- posed his penis and masturbated in the presence of a female non- student who was studying in WLLC. At approximately 7:56 PM, Campus Police received a report that a man had exposed his geni- tals to a woman who had been studying at one of the tables in the D 1 Level Vending Area ofWLLC. Police Officer Gerald King and Reserve Police Officer David Brehm interviewed the 35 year- old Victim, who is nota student at UW-Parkside. She said she had been study- ing in the area and had noticed the 28 year-old student also studying at a nearby table.' Joseph Kane, a UW - Parkside student, had gone to the vending area and talked with the victim. He noted that Cassity had stared at him oddly but thought nothing of it. He then finished his conversa- tion and left. Religious policy reminder Dennis Clarke News Editor An attempt is being made to betterinfonn students at UW -Park- side about the school's policy on iI:COmmodation of religious ob- servances. , Ina memo issued January 5 to Diana Sharp, Executive Assistant to the Assistant. Chancellor, and SusanJohnson, Registrar, G. Gary Grace, Assistant Chancellor for Sladent Affairs, requested that in- linnati on regarding the policy be llademore easily available to stu- daus. Grace said in the memo that "e Parkside Student Government Aasociation had "requested that we I:OllStder additional avenues for l!Ifonning students of the policy on Accommodation of Religious Ob- !lervances:' Discussion regarding the illlicy had come up at recent meet- mgsofPSGAand the United Coun- ~I,anorganization that represents ~ Interests of students through- OUtthe UW System, the memo holed. J Grnce suggested to Sharp and .ohnso n that information regard- IJlg the POlicy could better reach ~udents if it was included in such University publications as the Uni- versity Catalog, Schedule of Classes and the Student Guidebook and Calendar. The policy, adopted last May by the Faculty Senate, states: "A student with a conflict between an .acadernic requirement and a reli- gious observance must be given an alternative means of meeting the academic requirement, subject to the following: a. To be granted an alternative means of meeting an academic requirement, students must notify their instructors, within the first two weeks of class, of specific days or dates on which they will request relief from an academic requirement. (The in- structor must treat this information as confidential.) b. Instructors are not obligated to schedule make- ups before the regularly scheduled requirements. c. Instructors may set reasonable limits on the total number of days claimed by anyone student" The policy supports StateLaw 36.43, which mandates that public educational institutions provide for the reasonable accommodation of a student's sincerely held religious beliefs with regard to academic requirements. At one point in time, the vic- tim had a brief conversation with Cassity concerning a class he was taking. She became uncomfort- able as he began to turn the con- versation to a discussion of his personal life. She excused her- self from further discussion and heretumedtoaseatdirectlyacross from the table where she was working. She noticed, a few minutes later, that he seemed to be pur- posefully making some noises to attract her attention. When she looked at him, she saw that his penis was exposed from under his shorts and he was masturbat- ing. She screamed at him and ran' from the area. Kane, who was studying in Upper Main Place, heard her screams and assisted the victim in calling Campus Police. As Officer King was obtain- ing information from the victim, Officer Brehm returned to the squad car to begin a search for the suspect. A man fitting the description provided by the victim emerged from the wooded area just south of WLLC and approached the squad car. He told the officer, "I'm theone who exposed myself". Officer Brehm brought Cassity into WLLC and the victim identified Cassity as the person who exposed his penis to her. Cassity was immediately ar- rested by Officer King and trans- ported to the Campus Police Depart- ment. After being informed of his Constitutional Rights, Cassity agreed to talk to Officer King and, subse- quently, provided a verbal statement as to his involvement in this inci- dent. Cassity was transported to the Kenosha County Jail where he was booked on charges of lewd & las- civious Behavior and Disorderly Conduct. A tOUlI cash bond of $400.00 was established. Cassity posted the bond on Sunday, October 4, 1992 and was released from cus- tody. At the trial, Cassity read a state- ment before being sentenced. In his statement he said that "he doesn't hold the District Attorney account- able" and that he has "long harbored a resentment towards the judge." Cassity further remarked that he "has a predisposition to be men- tally challenged." He became in- creasingly incoherent and lost con- trol of himself several times and had to stop talking. Cassity con- cluded by telling Schroeder "may you judge fairly and be judged ac- cordingly." When the judge mentioned jai 1 time, Cassity interrupted him, say- ing that ifhe were to besentenced,he wanted more than the maximum eleven months. The judge referred toCassity's statement given to UW- Parkside Police saying that it read like pornography and was filled with threats. Cassity again inter- rupted and asked the judge, "How would you know?" Cassity's last remark was that he "would be back on the revolving door:' Cassity has been arrested on many other occasions dating back to 1979. His prior arrests ranged from attempted burglary to a con- viction similar to his latest one.

New dean for school of business named Dennis Clarke News Editor Dr. Richard D. Brown, dean of the College of Busi- ness at Northern Illinois Uni- versity, has been named dean of the School of Business at UW-Parkside. The announcement ends a nearly year-long search for a successor to Beverlee Ander- son, who resigned her position as dean at UW-Parkside last February to accept a similar position with California State University at San Marcos. Arthur Corr had been acting as interim dean. AccordinglOProvostJohn Stockwell, two nation-wide searches were conducted that produced a total of 60 candi- dates. A search committee consist- ing of UW -Parkside faculty and Kenosha and Racine businesspeople reviewed the candidates and sug- gested Brown for the position. Brown has been active in the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business, a majoraccred- iring body. He served as President, Mid-Continent East Deans for 1991 and 1992 and President, Illinois Council of Deans in 1988 and 1989. This experience will help Brown lead the school toward AACSB ac- creditation, according to John Stockwell, UW -Parksideprovostand vice-chancellor.

January 20, I TilE RANGER NEws, Page 2 Movie Review Al Pacino excellent in"Scent of aWoman" Chris Tishuk and Chris Zanis Feature Writers Chris here with the beginning of Chris' Movie Corner, two Christophers taking a look at re- centlyreleasedfilms. To startwith we chose a somewhat quiet film of the holiday season. "Scentofa Woman" was given an obscure title and not given the extensive commercial advertise- ment usually needed for commer- cial success. Since this was Chris Z's pick, he will begin with his extensive look at "Scent of a Woman." Thanks Chris. Recently Chris and myself entered into the theater eagerly anticipating the new AI Pacino movie "Scent of a Woman" starring AI Pacino playing the role of a retired army colonel who lost his sight in an accident, and co-star Chris O'Donnell, as a prep school senior whose job is to babysit him over the Thanksgiving weekend. The movie starts off at a near stand-still, with Charlie (Chris O'Donnell) meeting Frank Slade (AI Pacino) in a small house down the road from the prep school. Pacino doesn't seem to be dis- turbed about his blindness. It's just a part of his life that he has to deal with because of his own carelessness (he was wounded when one of the grenades he was juggling exploded). However he can sense every- thing that is going on around him. By giving small gestures and reac- ACUI Tournaments will be held for 8- ball(pocket billiards) and bowling.

Surprisingly the the film erupts with humor when the colonel takes Charlie on his fantasy weekend in Manhattan. The escapade includes a room at the Waldorf, limo rides, extrava- gant dinners, and a pricey escort for Frank. This results in the turn- ing point for the movie leading you to see the most climactic scenes of the whole film, wben O'Donnell and Pacino simply explode in a flurry of emotional fireworks.

One major item that is, the document may have over- stepped the parameters oftheini- tial taskof creating a bill ofrights. "What the Board of Regents wanted was aprogram that would help the undergraduate experi- ence," said Bovee. He noted that this was to be done by addressing various academic issues. However, the proposed bill of rights wanders into shared gov- ernance issues as well, and therein lies what Bovee sees as major sticking points for faculty and staff. "When we go into shared governance." said Bovee. "weare going outside the realm of the academics sphere." Grace agreed. commenting that some faculty members were bothered by the wording of the document "It didn't seem like a bill of rights that they were familiar with because there were no corre- sponding responsibilities men- tioned," said Grace. "That was a shortcoming as perceived by fac- ulty." Grace also said that after Portch receives feedback on the document, it is not outside the Continued on Page 2 Supporters of a system-wide slUdent bill of rights which would help serveas aguideline to ensure qualitY undergraduate education for all University of Wisconsin slUdents are currently seeking in- putfromswdents, faculty and staff Ihroughout the UW System.

Dr.Fullin, a local physician, speaks on domestic abuse Follin said that prevalent at- titudes in the health care system only add to the domestic violence epidemic. He noted that a hierar- chical relationship often exists between physicians and patients that can result in more harm than good. He said that physicians often place the blame for domestic vio- lence on victims. Also, abuse is often rationalized and normalized by physicians, according to Fullin. Physicians can treat the violence as a normal occurrence in bad relationships, recommending that the people involved in the rela- tionship simply seek counseling. Fullin notes that this approach does nothing to address the safety of the victim or the victim's chil- dren.

Characteristics common to abusive men include: do not feel that violent behavior is !heir fault; are charming and manipulative; tend to feel weak and powerless; extremely dependent on nurturing relationships; resort to violence to assure themselves of their strength, control, and masculinity; fear of losing the relationship increases self-doubt; very jealous and pas. sessiveof partner; lack proper ver- bal skills to express emoti<ms; or- ten witnessed mother being abused while children; and usually came from families with poorcoping and problem·solving skills.

Larson discussed how the abuser employs intimidation, isolation, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, and threats tokeep a woman "under con- troL" Through these tactics. the abu- sive male (as is usually the case) establishes power over the woman. One third of all women seeking emergency room treaunent are vic- tims of abuse, Larson said. In sev- enty percent of all abuse cases the abuse was premeditated. Sixty percent ofbauered women are sexually abused. and forty per- cent of men who abuse their wives abuse their children as well. In addi- tion, thirty percent of all women killed are killed by their husbands. About one half of battered women actually leave their husbands. Larson also discussed the char- acteristics of abusive males and of- fered profIles of female victims. She Tara Hay News Writer Dennis Clarke News Editor As part of Domestic Vio- lence Week sponsored by the Women's Center, Barb Larson of UW -Parkside' s counseling office gave a presentation last Wednes- day at noon in Union 104 on recognizing and leaving danger- ous relationships. According to Larson, it is important to recognize the cycle of violence common in unhealthy relationships. The cycle fre- quently starts with tension build- ing between the couple that esca- lates into a battering incident. This is followed by the"hon- eymoon stage" during which the abuser charms and manipulates his partner into believing thal the abuse will never happen again. The cycle recurs with the amount of time spent on the in-between stages growing shorter and The problem of domestic violence in America is further complicated as a result of the refusal of members of the nation's health care system to admit the problem exists, ac- COrding to Dr. Kevin Fullin, a cardiologist from Kenosha who is involved with the Domestic Violence Project, Inc.

Reigstad focused on gender discrimination and gender harass- ment as well as outlining six guidelines universities should fol- low. According to Reigstad, a university's primary goal is to edu- cate. Universities must be open and just communities where dis- crimination and stereotypes are discouraged to promote freedom of thought and expression. In addition, universities must be dis- ciplined and celebrated institu- tions. Reigstad discussed common double standards concerning men andwomen, Shelistedsomecom- mon stereotypes: men are dy- namic while women are aggres- sive; a man is a go-getter while a woman is pushy; men are cofident whereas women are stuck-up; a man is only human, while a woman is emotional. Reigstad stressed the importance of recog- nizing stereotypes between men and women in order to under- stand how gender discrimination promotes harassment. Reigstad handed out com- municationsquizzes to those who attended. Among other things, she revealed that men are more likely to interrupt women than men, that women speak in a more tentative style than men and that men are listened to more care- fully than women, even when a woman makes an identical pre- sentation. Regstadalso distributed a yes or no questionnaire designed to help people evaluate their atti- tudes which help build trust and develop partnership skills, as well as a questionnaire on sexual ha- rassment Reigstad cited several ex- amp~es of inequities in the work- place where it was meant to be gender neutral, yet women were expected to answer the phone on their lunch hours and employers were unsympathetic regarding childcare, among other things. Reigstadalso maintains that some behavior most would considerpo- lite <opening a car door for a woman, guiding her by the arm) is really a non-verbal display or power. According to Reigstad, this constitutes gender discrimi- nation. Reigstad maintained that small inequalities that are gener- ally overlooked by both men and women may escalate and need to stop. She suggested four ways to improve the climate in the work- place: establish a code of conduct that would promote gender-neu- tral treatment of all employees, implement intervention policies and demand offenders be held accountable for their actions, as well as open communication be- tween all employees. Officer Piepenburg calls it quits after 21 years Dennis Clarke News Editor One of the pioneers of uw- Parks ide will be hanging up his badge and turning in his walkie talkie at the end of the year. Officer Dennis Piepenburg, who has worked as a security and police officer at UW -Parkside since 1971, is retiring from his duties on campus. Piepenburg says that there have been some changes since he began at UW -Parkside. For example, when Piepenburg began as a security of- ficer at UW -Parkside, the campus police department was located in whatisnowthestudentunion. Also, officers did not have arrest powers when Piepenburg first began. He has also seen administra- tors and theirvarious policies come and go.

Piepenburg went through training at the Wisconsin State Pa- trol Academy. He also works as an officer for the Twin Lakes police department in western Kenosha County. He says there are differ- ences between that job and his du- ties on campus. "It's a whole different type of law enforcement," comments Piepenburg. Piepenburg says that, over the years, he has enjoyed his job at UW -Parkside. "It's been areal pleasure work- ing with the students," he com- ments. "Students here <at UW- Parkside) have always been, you know, behaved," says Piepenburg. He says that the most serious problems have traditionally been with people who were not directly involved with the university. "As long as you have an open campus, you can't get away frolll problems," said Piepenburg. Piepenburg has a unique ap. proach to hIS mreracuon with Stu- dents. "You have to go on a one-on. one basis," he notes. He says that sometimes he has to act "as a big brother rather than a police Offi- cer." Fellow officer Steve Raw had good things to say about Piepenburg. "1' ve never worked with any. body finer," said Rawson.

He also recommends equality in relationships and says that ap- proaches like shared parenting play an important role in preventing power differential. According to Fullin, this is a major underlying factor in much of the domestic abuse that occurs. Fullin offered statistics on the commonality of domestic violence, stating that every twelve seconds a woman is battered in the United States. He went on to say that domestic violence is the single most cornmon cause of injury to women, that one-half of all women will be physically abused in areletionship, and that domestic violence is a factor in 26 percent of all female suicides. Fullin also said that 95 percent of all serious domestic violence is committed against women. Healso drew a parallel between wife beat- ing and child beating, saying that often the two go hand in band. The Domestic Violence Project, Inc. was started in JUIIC 1991 under the auspices of making the health care system,andthecom- munity at large, safer for victimsof domestic abuse. It is funded by both St. Catherine's Hospital and Kenosha Hospital and Medical Cen ter, as well as through fundraisers, honorariums and pri. vate contributions.

"I would not beatall surprised if the vice-president (portch) chose to bring it back to the essential elements," said Grace.

Grace believed that that step was an important one in the quest to geta student bill of rights imple- mented.

Some of the difference reo suIted because agencies had not left as large an amount of unspent funds as was estimated. Another reason was that ex- penses were higher than estimates for several appropriations. The end result of these adjustments is that the estimated gross balance decreased from $114 million to $74 million at the end of the year. 1992-93. The last column on the table shows the estimated numbers for the second year of the biennium. None of the fig- ures were adjusted to reflect the fact that revenues in 1991-92 were $19 million more than originally estimated, nor that spending ex- ceeded appropriations by $45 million in the previous year. The opening balance of $74 million, plus revenues of 6.874 billion, provides $6.948 billion for financing the budget.

According to studies cited by Kaplan, of the approximately 3000 institutions of higher education in the United States, women serve as chief executive officers (chancellor, president) of around 300 of them, or about 10 percent. "This is not an impressive num- ber," commented Kaplan. Kaplan noted, however, that that figure has doubled over the last ten years. "It used to be a lot worse than it is now," added Kaplan. Kaplan went on to explain that women who serve in other adminis- trative positions below the level of presidentorchancellorarealsoso me · what disproportionate!

Dennis Clarke News Editor Dr. Sheila Kaplan, Chancel- lor ofUW -Parkside, recently de- livered a presentation at Gateway Technical College in Kenosha on the changing role of women in higher education administration. Kaplan gave an audience of around 50 people an overview of the current status of women in higher education and said that women involved in higher edu- cation administration have a re- sponsibility to help further the interestsofotherwomeninvolved in all areas of higher education. "Women are not being used to their full potential in higher education," commented Kaplan, "and I personally believe the en- terprise suffers from their ab- sence."

Page 2 Dr.Amy Ling speaks to university about Asian American writers Alan R.Cook News Writer "I had never read anything written by anyone who looked like me," Dr. Amy Ling laughingly explains as she recounts her grow- ing passion for studies in Asian American literature. Ling, an associate professor of English and the Director of the Asian Studies program at UW- Madison, spoke to an interested group of UW -Parkside students, faculty and staff at a noon hour forum on November 18. Herlatestresearch hasresulted in the publication of "Between Worlds: Women Writers of Chi- nese Ancestry" (New York: Pergamon Press, 1990), an exten- sive study ofNorth American writ- ers of Chinese descent, beginning with Edith Eaton, who wrote inthe late 1800s and concluding with Amy Tam. Ling has chronicled an all but Budget cuts Contined from Page 1 of $15 million on June 30, 1993. After setting aside the required statutory balance of I % of appro- priation ($70 million), the budget is $55 million in the hole. The negative balance is explained on the basis that the law only requires the budget to have a 1 % reserve when it is enacted, not later in the biennium. In the 1992-93 year, expenditures will exceed revenues by $50 million. The statetherefore hasdecided that the UW-system should give back $1 ° ,229,900 tohelpoffset the $55 million shortage. UW- Parkside's shareofthis is$230,000. "The good news is that in this case the state is giving us flexibil- ity to manage the cut," said Dave Continued on Page 4 ignored and forgotten area of American literature. Her research hasnot been easy because very few critics have cared to recognize Asian American writers. Describing thedifficulty ofher research, Ling says that "a subject does not exist until someone writes about it." Asian American litera- ture consists largely of"well-writ- ten, well-received books, but soon forgotten ...not recognized," Ling explains. Asian American literature is well worth our attention, Ling en- thusiastically argues, foritincludes important modern themes. Themes of traditional family and cultural values threatened and shaped by geographical transplan- tation, themes of ethnic, commu- nity and individual pride intheface of discrimination and turmoil, and many other important themes are addressed in Asian American writ- ings. It is literature very much affected by the women's liberation and civil rights movements. Much of Asian American literature is "beautifully written," Ling de- scribes, "using powerful meta- pnors." As well as being a scholar, writer and teacher, Ling is the di- rector of the Asian American Stud- ies Program at UW -Madison, a program that encompasses inter- disciplinary studies of people of Asian ancestry who live in the Kaplan speaks on women in education Continued from Page 1 their professions," said Kaplan. Kaplan went on to dispel the notion that women in leadership roles must deny gender differences to be effective leaders. "Men and women are differ- ent," said Kaplan. "Our socializa- tion and our access to power and wealth are different, "Whatever we do to convince people that we are 'just one of the boys,' we aren't, and the boys will never see us to be such," warned Kaplan. Kaplan stressed the irnpor- tanceofinstitutionsofhigher learn- ing in the United States. "America's colleges and uni- versitiesareand will remain vitally social institutions in this country. We help set the values of our soci- ety, and our faculty and adminis- tration serve as role models for future generations," she said. Kathleen Russ, Director of Health and Human Services at Gateway, applauded Kaplan on her community involvement record. "She has made her own path- ways and has made a mark in our community. She has been very diligent in providing direction and guidance to the people in our com- munity," commented Russ, citing Kaplan's involvement in the Kenosha Area Development Cor- poration, the Racine County Eco- nomic Development Corporation and various urban affairs commit- tees.

"People have no problem dis- tinguishing Africans from African Americans," Ling points out. "There isaperception, though, that if you have Asian features, you are Asian." Ling briefly described some of the conflicts that have emerged within this new area of study, dis- agreements as to what points of origin should be considered, what kind of issues should be studied, where the literature should be set and the like. "I feel we should draw our boundaries wide," Ling explains, describing both a wide-ranging geographical area, including people of diverse and broad backgrounds, and an expansive scope of issues and concerns. "The whole field is rather young," she says as she de- - scribes thedevelopment ofthisnew program of study.

The first snowfall will soon transform the surrounding land- scape into a winter wonderland. Fallen snow can also present achallenge to commuters. Even though the campus grounds crew will be making every effort to clear sidewalks, parking lots and roads in the fastest and most ef- ficient means possible, you can help by cooperating with a few simple requests. Snow does not always fall when it is convenient for plow- ing. The lots are cleared of snow as soon as possible, but you may not be able to park in your usual spot. Parking in the unplowed part of the lot only makes it more difficult for snow removal operations to becornpleted. You may find snow plowed all around your car. Park your car only in the areas that have been plowed. If your lot is not available, you may have to temporarilyparlt in another. Never park on Outer Loop Road.

University to present first formal winter com- mencement ceremony December 20 Walt Shirer Press Release A formal commencement cer- emonyfor December graduates will be held for the first time since the early days of UW -Parkside, the university has announced. Winter commencement will be held December 20 at2 p.m. in the Communication Arts Theater. Caps and gowns will be the standard attire. The format of the commencement will be virtually the same as that in May, with pro- cession of candidates, presentation by faculty marshals and conferral of degrees by Chancellor Sheila Kaplan. For many years, midyearcom- mencement has been an informal reception for graduates and their guests in Main Place of the Wyllie Library-Learning Center. Kaplan said that the formal commencement this year 'results from the increasing numbers of December, as well as May, gradu- ates, due in large part to increased retention and graduation rates. "We've outgrown the old for- mat in Main Place," she said. Because of the limited capac- ity of the Communication Arts Theater, graduates are being asked to limit the number of guests to no more than four. Potential December graduates are currently being certified by the Student Records office and those graduates will soon receive a mail- ing with information and instruc- tions regarding the ceremony. University officials expect about 175 students will be eligible for December graduation. School of Science and Tech- nology Dean Ben Greenebaum will be the commencement speaker. Caps and gowns for gradu- ates will be available in the Carn- pus Bookstore no later than De- cember I. A variety of sizes will be available so pre-ordering and fitting will not berequired. Gradu- ation announcements also are available at the Campus Book- store, 595-2301. Graduates who are unable to participate in the Decem ber com- mencement may take part in the May commencement.

The following are a few of the responses (some are edited due10space constraints): -"One too many drinks + 2 months pregnant = a baby with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome." -"At 16, my best friend was rundown by a drunk driver. She wasina coma for one year before she died. The driver lost his license and spent one year in JID!." ·"Alcohol- itkilled my hus- band." -''When Iwas8,Icamehome fromcamp to find out that my 19 yearold brother had been drink- ing the night before, ran his car Into a tree and killed himself. I'm 20 now, and that day still haunts me." -'1 drankfor3 and 1/2 years. Hadfour car accidents, ten jobs, two trips 10a mental institution and saw five of my friends killed mcaraccidents. I've been sober for 17 years. No car accidents, no hospitals, no arrests. A brand new life." -"My father has been an al- coholic ever since I can remem- ber. He was never there for me when I was a child. I resented that, and maybe that's why I would never drink." -"M y 22 year old brother died when he fell asleep while driving home from a night out at the bars, and his ear went off the road into Lake Michigan. The autopsy showed that he was le- gally drunk." Alcohol is the number one drug abused in America - not cocaine, not crack. not marijuana _ALCOHOL. One in four people are directly affected by alcohol (either their own use or someone they care about). With 5200 students on cam- pus, that means approximately 1300 students' lives are affected by alcohol. If you or someone you know has a problem with alcohol and would like to leam more about it or talk with some- one, stop by the Student Assis- tance Office (Molinaro D124) or call 595-2338 and askfor Marcy. Confidentiality is assured. There is help, and there is hope.

Peace Corps recruiter visits campus Dennis Clarke News Editor A representative from the Peace Corps visited UW -Park- side last Tuesday as part of an effort to attract more applicants from southeastern Wisconsin. Peace Corps Representative Nancy Smith met with potential applicants throughout the day and . hosted an information seminar in Union 202 at 4:30 p.m. Smith was joined by Bob Mackey .a Peace Corps volunteer who had served in Cameroon. Together, they gave those who attended the late afternoon meet- ing an indication of how much timc and effort Peace Corps vol- unteers can expect to invest, as well as how much satisfaction volunteers can gel in return. "There are peaks and valleys in this experience, like there arc anywhere else in life," said Smith, who served as a business advisor with Peace Corps in Fiji. "There are extreme cultural differences, and it takes a lot of empathy and understanding." However, Smith felt the ex- perience was well worth the per- sonal sacrifice. "I would not have traded those two years for any- thing:' she commented. Smith said thatthePeaceCorps is currently trying to attract appli- cants with backgrounds in agricul- ture, business and education. "Our thrust ison what we call 'scarce skills''', said Smith. Peace Corps is especially looking for help with environmental programs. According to Smith, it is not the function of the Peace Corps to impose an American way of life on lesser developed nations. "The whole point of the pro- gram is to take our skills and give them to the countries that do warn them," said Smith. "Remember that we go to these countries by invitation only." Smith went through theexten- sive screening process with the potential appl icarus at the meeting. First. interviews arc set upon cam- pus with recruiters. Comprehen- si ve applications arc filled out with the recruiter's help. Next. applicants arc nom inated for service. However, a nomina- tion docs not guarantee an invita- tion to the Peace Corps, according to Smith. An in-depth evaluation process must take place first. The evaluation includes such things as medical tests and routine FBI ex- aminations into applicants' pasts. After that, applicants arc fi- nally given an invitation to train- ing, which lasts approximately three months and usually takes place in the country in which the volunteer will serve. "We as Peace Corps poople are representatives of the United States.so thescreening process is a very careful process," assured Smith. "It is extremely competi- tive. "Peace Corps volunteers arc very well respected," boasted Smith. Continued on Page 3 -....... November II, 1992 --------..

Of equal importance, Chen reported, he and his colleagues are exposing their students to sound experimental techniques and encouraging them in their development of skills in critical thinking through participation in this research. ''These are the most impor- tarn aspects of teaching," Chen concluded. Chen has contributed numer- ous articles and chapters to peri- odicals and. books on plant biol- ogy over the years.

The demonstrators gathered in the Union Bazaar wearing teal col- ored T-shirts proclaiming various "Take Back the Night" slogans. Many wore red armbands. Fifty Tsshirts and more than ergnty armbands had been distrib- uted throughout campus last Fri- day, and there was a good turnout at all of the programs scheduled during Rape Awareness Week. Many students and faculty showed their support. "It's imponant to raise con- sciousness about rape awareness and the plight of rape victims," SlatedCarole Katt, a rape survivor attending the rally. Linda Markeson of Kenosha Sexual Assault Services gaveabrief but impassioned speech in the Union Bazaar expressing outrage over the closing of SI. Catherine's treatment center after twelve years ofservice with theexcuse that rape is not a health issue. Markeson was a founding member of Kenoshans Against Sexual Assault (KASA) during the mid 1970's, and was active inedu- cating the community and provid- ing services for victims of rape, KASA's plimary goals. After establishing the sexual assault treatment center at SI. Catherine's hospital, KASA dis- banded, satisfied they had done what was necessary 10provide ser- vices for sexual assault victims. There was a strong reaction from the community. As a result, KASA has been reformed, emer- gency funding hasbeenestablished The voice of Walt Whitman: a centennial celebration Wednesday, November 4 Noon Concert Series, CART D-II8 Barbara Enders, pianist & faculty member CLC Listening to a recently redis- covered recording of poet Walt Whitman reading from one of his poems will beone of the highlights of a free program to be held Wednesday, November II at 7;00 pm in the UW-Parkside Library/ Learning Center.

The funding, however, is due toexpire December 31ofthis year, and Markeson urged demonstra- tors to "Get angry and get active" in their support of this endeavor. Markeson suggested thatdern- . onstrators contact their legislators and make their feelings known. There is a meeting scheduled for anyone interested in volunteering to help the new treatment center get underway onTuesday, Novem- ber IO from 7-9pm in the south- W~jL brunch of tire Kenosha Li- brary.

"The WHEG program, which currently serves over 20,000 UW resident undergraduates, is slated to receive a tentative 3.1 percent increase next year and only a 2.6 percent increase in 1994. "Pell Grant awards will be cut next year, including a $100 cut in the maximum grant," added Wil- liams. "It is vitally imperative that the UW System and the state place a premium on policies that stimu- late the participation of economi- cally disadvantaged students in higher education," said Williams.

After the Regents look at it, the document will go into the hands of Governor Tommy Thompson for modification ,then to the Legis- lature, then back to Thompson. Williams urges the Board of Regents to take a look at the tuition increases in the budget. "The UWregentsmustact with prescience and advocate for an ac- cessible, quality UW education during and succeeding their bud- get deliberations next week," com- mented Williams. "More state funding is needed to partially offset tuition increases and allow President Lyall's vision for the UW to be accomplished with conscience and regard for the underrepresented in our society," added Williams. Slate Representative Peter Barca, D-Kenosha, commented in an interview with The Capital Times that increases in tuition should be lower than the ones pro- posed in Lyall's budget. "How long can we have tu- ition outpacing inflation?" heasked.
