I '~~q~s, I T Y , 0 F ; W I S CON SIN - PAR K SID E VOLUME 24 • ISSUE 14 • JANUARY 18, 1996 DaleWheeler: GivingBack to the Community • Genevieve Guran PhotoEditor Prof. Dale Wheeler of Parkside's chemistry depart- ment believes in giving back to the community. Organizing the events of National Chemistry Week is one way he has found to do this. For the last two years Prof.Wheeler has served as the chairman of the commit- I tee responsible for the events of National Chemistry Week in our nine county area. National Chemistry Week is an event which grew out of National Chemistry Day which was initiated by the American Chemical Society overa decade ago. National I Chemistry Day began as an ~ttempt to shine a positive light on chemistry, to show peoplehow their lives have benefitted from advance- ments in chemistry, and to givethem a basic "chemical literacy." Nowthe events of National Chemistry Week are largely i geared toward peaking the mterest of grade school and I highschool students. Prof. I Wheeler, along with volun- teers from UW-Milwaukee Marquette, Carroll College: and Parkside, made the week I a fun and memorable learn- ingexperience for the 3700 kidswho attended the festiv- ities which took place at Discovery World in lIil waukee. I Prof. Wheeler also orga- nized a number of other lJnaginativeand educational activities. Three local high ~hools participated in Dale Wheeler Professor of Chemistry at UW-Parkside National Mole Day (Oct. 23rd) and the winning high school, Washington Park in Racine, will be visited by a team from CHEM-TV, a pro- gram put out by Dow Chemical Company to pro- mote chemistry. In a compe- tition called Elements of Our World, also organized by Prof. Wheeler, grade .school classes each picked an ele- ment from the Periodic Table and described why it is important to the world. In another competition, Battle of the Burets, 50 high school students, in teams of two, took part in a titrating com- petition. Finally, as part of a "Chemistry Buddies Program," high school stu- dents visited grade schools and helped the younger kids carry out simple chemistry experiments. These programs and activi- ties all have one thing in common: they promote an interest in science in general and chemistry in particular. They also promote a wonder- ful spirit of cooperation and teamwork. Prof. Wheeler's work with these programs has been of great benefit to students in Southeastern Wisconsin. He says of his work with area schools: llWe are a communi- ty-based university and we should be involved in the community ... .1 guess I have embraced that role and I like it .. .1 like to allow people an opportunity to learn some- thing if they want to." ESTABLISHED 1972 Con Artists • Derek Bishop Staff Writer Purchasing swampland in Florida, fast money-making schemes, and get-rich-quick offers are just some of the sales pitches that are with- drawing money from the pockets of the numerous uninformed. Basically, these "Con" methods take your money and leave like a one- night stand. Recently, university offi- cials have been notified that several Parkside students have become a part of a "bogus" company called Fortune in Motion (Suite 601-1001 West Broadway; Vancouver, British Columbia, V6B 4Hl Canada, (604) 731-0737). Individuals are lured through sales meetings which are held throughout the state (WI) to invest money with an individual broker. The person invest- ing the money actually becomes a customer of the broker, who in turn, is encouraged to go out and recruit other people with the intent that the investor will eventually become a broker and qualify for low priced travel trips . Usually nobody profits in this "pyramid structured" scheme except for the bro- ker. The investor is left with recourse, because the com- pany does not actually hold the money; the broker con- trols the money. It is consid- ered a chain distribution scheme. The Justice Department for the State of Wisconsin has filed a lawsuit against this company but no trial date has yet been scheduled. The Justice Department reflects that the company has violated the Agriculture Trade and Consumer Protection Administrative Code #122. The department also states that anybody who continues to do business with Fortune in Motion does so at their own risk. And any individual who feels that he or she has been vic- timized by this investment scheme should seek legal counsel. Objectivism Explored • Cynthia Johnson Guest Writer The philosophies of Russian-born writer Ayn Rand will be discussed at the Food for Thought Bookstore and Cafe on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday nights of each month at 8:00 PM. Ayn Rand is the author of such books as The Fountainhead, AtlM Shrugged, Anthem, and oth- ers. Her theories address issu-es of capitalism, egoism, and individualism. Anyone who has read her books or has an interest in learning more about this author/philosopher is wel- come to attend any or all meetings. Those with oppos- ing views and philosophies are also welcome to attend as well. The discussion will be lead by Carthage student Jim Zika, a philosophy student and Lincoln Scholarship winner. The Food for Thought Bookstore and Cafe is located on the north side 0 Carthage College Campus. turn east just past the bridge on Sheridan Rd. and follow the one way street to the grey house at the top of the hill.

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

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

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

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

Quorum was tem- rarily lost and then gained and the official eeting continued. Among the issues dis- ssed was the United ounci1 (VC) meeting which be hosted at Parkside on riday, February 23, and turday February 24. nitedCouncil is an organi- tionthat lobbies on the of students and keeps eminformed of current litieal issues affecting the dent body. All students e invited to attend these eetinga. PSGA is representing the transportation committee and distributing surveys on campus. These surveys will determine how many stu- dents use public transporta- tion and the shuttle bus on campus; also, the surveys aim to show how students feel about paying for these services. Stop by the PSGA office to make your opinion known. PSGA is looking for three dedicated students to serve the campus community in Student Government. 2 sen- ators and 1 secretary (paid position) are needed. Please go to the PSGA office for fur- ther information. All stu- dents are invited to attend PSGA meetings at noon on Fridays. anger News wins ollege Bowl Ranger News won the ala of UW-Parkside's ollege Bowl Wednesday, anuary 31 by defeating arkside Student Govern- eut Association (PSGA). e .winners represent arkslde at the regional urnament to be held at arquette University Feb- ary23 and 24.

Ranger News won its first round matchup against Geography Club on Monday Jan. 29. The second and final round against PSGA turned out to be the decisive one because two teams forfeited. The Ranger News team was headed by Jim Hendrickson, Editor-in- Chief. Monday's team includ- ed Scott Fragale, April Schoenberg, and Andy Boedecker. Wednesday's team included Fragale, Andy Von Dissen, and Karen Diehl. Because not all of the Ranger team could attend regionals, the Parkside team will consist of Hendrickson, Diehl, Von Dissen and PSGA's Zac Pawlowski Bill would limit Student Choice • David C. Stacy Special to Ranger News Student life is more than just going to class - it is being part of a university community in which stu- dents learn by exploring a wide variety of student groups, athletic opportuni- ties and pre-professional experiences. Most of these activities are funded through student-segregated fees. A bill recently int~oduced in the State Assembly would severely restrict student learning opportunities out- side of the classroom by requiring a positive check- off for all student fees except those for debt service and facilities maintenance. Assembly Bill 778, intro- duced by Representative Glenn Grothman (R-West Bend), would mandate a sin- gle positive check-off for funding of all student activi- ties, including inter-colle- giate athletics, intramural athletics, student group funding, health services, union/student center pro- gramming, student newspa- pers, student radio stations, and student governance. This bill would radically impact the quality of a UW education by dramatically limiting the non-instruction- al, educational student activities. At risk are stu- dent groups that bring speakers to campus; provide social opportunities outside of the "bar scene"; and teach students about politics, jour- nalism, marketing, creative writing, budgeting, volun- teerism, and much more. If even a few students decided not to pay an option- al segregated fee, many important university pro- grams like tutoring, athlet- ics, and student radio sta- tions would not be adequate- ly funded. It would be impossible to budget, or make any commitments to employees under such a sys- tem. 1b make up for defi- ciencies, students electing to pay the 'fee would ultimately have to pay much higher amounts. If this bill passes, there will be fewer outside lec- tures, fewer student groups in which to participate, a reduction in intramural activities, and fewer jobs for students on campus. This bill would destroy the university community. As our society looks for ways to help people feel connected to one another, it is ridiculous to undermine the traditional university community which "" ESTABLISHED 1972 has been able to build these connections among people. Student groups provide valuable learning experi- ences and professional development, and the legis- lature has no reason to step in and restructure the entire student fee allocation process without regard to the detrimental impact it will have. Students fee allocation is currently determined by democratically elected stu- dent governments based on internal campus guidelines and UW System policy, with oversight by the Chancellor and the UW System Board of Regents. Fees cannot be used to fund religious or politically partisan activi- ties, There is no reason for the legislature to meddle with the university's student fee policies. The process works well, and Wisconsin is a national leader in providing valuable extra-curricular experiences for its students. This adds immeasurably to the quality of our education. United Council is the nation's oldest and strongest state student association, representing over 140,000 students on 24 UW System campuses. Karen Diehl is the most photogenic member of the team.

Ways to get in shape - Ask a friend to walk with you - Check out the pool in the Phy-Ed building - Grab those rusty old ice skates and head out to the Pettit Center ~Join an «alternative sports" club on campus . Go out dancing at a local club - Eat less fatty foods; eat more chicken and fish - Join the army - Get involved in some hi of organized sport you like - Take a trip to the Mall ofl America (be sure to bring good walking shoesl) reduce the stress associated with such feelings, or any stress for that matter. It has also been proven that regular exercise increases the amount of blood flow to the brain, allowing us to better focus on learning. There is also a correspon- dence to mental stimulation and the growth of nerve cells in the brain. The more you challenge your brain, the more information it can store and process. So a bal- anced daily diet of studying and exercise can build your muscles and beef up your brain. Tholittle mental stimulation and exercise could possibly get you a job as a stand-in on "Beavis & Butthead" ... (Insert appro- priate laugh here), Getting into a regular fit- ness routine for some sounds overwhelming. What pops into your mind when you hear the word "exercise"? Probably a per- son soaking wet with per- spiration running countless laps around a track, right? While for some, this is a pleasurable workout, for the vast majority of people it is something they would rather not think about. Don't fret, there are plenty of things that are no where near as grueling as that. You need to choose some- thing that you consider fun, so you will stick to the goals that you choose. Try an organized sport that you are interested in, or something with a group of friends. • Aaron Kapellusch Feature Writer Okay, it is now February and you haven't been as good about those New Year's resolutions as you had promised. Those couple of extra pounds have just been waiting for the right time to free themselves from your body. The miles you vowed to run everyday during the upcoming year, along with a list of shalts and shalt nots, has once again been put off until next year. Now that a whole month has gone by since the first of the year, we should not sit and dwell on what we have not done and make excuses, but instead get back on track. If your resolutionts) were about health- related improvements such as eat- ing healthier or getting into a regu'lar fitness routine, there could be no better time to start than now! I know that you have heard over and over again the benefits of regular exercise and a balanced diet, but there are many reasons why living healthier is especially good for college students. Regular exercise will give you more energy, as will eating the right foods. This time of year when the weather is bitterly cold, a common reaction of many people is to lay around and hibernate. The fact of the matter is that this just cre- ates more feelings of "cabin fever". Exercise helps to Alternative Sports at Parkside ASAP • Amanda Bulgrin Staff Writer get a workout" Kremer said. He added, "It is a very wel- coming environment and anyone can play." Atournament is being planned for April in Madison where twelve to sixteen teams will be com- peting. Practices are held on Thursdays from 7:00-9:00 in the gym. Everyone is wel- come and encouraged to come and try Ultimate Frisbee. According to Kremer, experience or know- how ofthe game is not necessary because everyone is willing to teach newcomers how to play. If Frisbee isn't your game, A.S.A.P. also offers a variety of nontraditional sports. Mountain biking and paint ball wars are two of the more popular sports within the club. The club is also planning a ski trip to Cascade Mountain in the near future. Tournaments for darts, pool, and bowling are some other options that will soon be added. The new year brings many resolutions and often broken promises to one's self. If you, like many oth- ers, decided that as of the first of this year you were going to get into shape, but have not started to exercise, there are fun and exciting ways to be able to slip into those new jeans. A.s.A.P., Alternative Sports at Parkside, offers enjoyable ways to stay in shape. Ultimate Frisbee, for example, is a non-contact sport that stresses sports- manship and fair play while giving a great cardiovascu- lar workout. The game, which is played outdoors with seven players per team, is a challenging com- bination of football, basket- ball, and soccer. Tom Kremer, director of A.S.A.P., is working to put together a college team at UW-Parkside.

The lecture, "Dilemmasof Development andDemocracy in Africa," wasgiven Wednesday, Feb. 7th, as part of the University's· Soup and Substance Lecture Series. Trager, who has spent a Y."PRt neal of time in Africa and,in 1991, established a faculty exchange program with Nigeria's Obafemi ~wolowo University, is an mternationally recognized scholar on Nigeria. Trager first discussed Africa's struggle for democracy. She stated that, while there is a movement toward democracy in some parts of Africa, particularly South Africa, and in Ghana, Mali, and Benin military governments have been replaced with civilian governments, in Niger a recent military coup has replaced what was a previously democratic government with a military government. In countries where economic stability is such a problem and so many people are still not benefitting from reforms, some people now speculate that political and economic reform should not be attempted simultaneously. Car Break-Ins in Housing Lot Perhaps an authoritarian, but benevolent, government, such as those found in some Asian countries, would prove a better model than the government of the U.S. at this stage of Africa's struggle. The real emphasis of the lecture went beyond the usual "doom and gloom" image of Africa. Africa is generally thought of in terms of famine, drought, corruption, and civil war. Trager made it clear that there is a lot more happening in Africa, and much of it is positive.

Chorale is the large daytime choir, and It meets from 1:00-1:50 MWFin CARTD-1l8. Chorale is open to stu- dents, staff, and faculty. Parkslde Master Singers is the nighttime choir. Master Singers meet in CARTD-1l8 from 7:00-9:45 on Monday night. Master Singers is open to all members of the commu- nity. Voices of Parkside is the chamber choir. It is a smaller group than the other two. Members must audition. The quality of the Parks ide choirs is what draws Rick Anderson to them. "I wanted to sing beautiful and challeng- ing music with a <;juahty community choir, said Anderson. James B. Kinchen, Jr. is conductor for all three choirs. Roseann Mason • Pamela Bradshaw NewsEditor Roseann Mason describes what she does as tilln~s that "just feel like they re my job." However, those "things" earned Mason the Academic Staff Distinguished Service Award. Mason enjoys making connections between dif- ferent parts of the Parkside and with the community, where "con- nections aren't there nat- urally. " Currently Mason is the coordinator of both the Writing and Tutoring Centers. She has worked to develop the programs so that they would "have some continuity for stu- dents." She feels that the Writing and Tutoring cen- ters playa "middle role between student and teacher." It meant a lot to Mason that the student who nom- inated her for the award was one of the writing assistants in the Writing center. Mason notes that many of the people who come in for assistance at the centers later work there as tutors. Another pro/'ect Mason has been invo ved with is using a grant from the Wisconsm Humanities Council to have Parkside faculty teach classes at the Racine Correctional Institution. "Most of the faculty who were involved were quite impressed and amazed at the interest level and the enthusiasm of the inmates," Mason said. "That connection ... really serves one of the missions of the university, to serve the community." PSG A Needs Justices • Kristine Hansen News Writer Do you have a 2.0 GPA? Are you enrolled in at least six non-audit cred- its this semester? Are you free Fridays at noon? If you answered yes to all of the above inquires, Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA) has a justice job for you. Apply at the Senate office today for a stab at justice. Four positions are available. PSGAneeds Justices available Fridays at noon in CART129. Justices make rulings on the constitu- tionality of Senate actions. Like Washington, Parks ide operates an Executive Branch, a Judicial Branch and a Legislative Branch (Student Senate). "The President of PSGAappoints jus- tices. Then they are approved by the Senate and then by the Chancellor," states Ty Wilda. Wilda was appointed by Tom Richie, PSGAPresident, at the end of last year and is now waiting for the Chancellor's approval. The waiting has caused Wilda to doubt whether be wants tills potential PSGAposition, as he was a Senator for one and a half years. The other appointee, Mike Bovee is waiting for Chancellor approval also. Wendy Paul and Matt Stephan obtained Chancellor approval. Stephan, howev- er, is the only justice, because Paul resigned. "The majority of justices, including Chief Justices, have graduated," In Mason's 090 English class this semester, she is having students use e-mailto write to students at Northeastern Univer- sity in Boston for feedback on their essays. The theme students will be working on is the culture of school. "I think the students might resist it a little ...but .. .I think it will give them a broader sense of our country at least." Roseann Mason accepts the award from Chancellor Eleanor Smith ~ - explains Teri Jacobson, senator of PSGA and Chair of $UFAC. Jason Beyer and Iohn Lovell, two of last year's justices, have graduated.

Nowhere • Barb Churchill Rangercolumnist What is to become of Voyager? The second season has begun after a truncated first season of only 16 episodes, but the show so far leaves me cold. I have taken an informal poll of my friends (die-hard Trekkers), and all agree that serious changes must be made. Part of the problem is that some of the characters' reac- tions are not believable because there has been little character development. Case in point: Harry Kim. In the "pleasure seeker episode," Kim didn't seem to know that an attractive young lady was hitting on him. Now, I'm sorry, but naive or not, most guys wilI notice when a girl is interested, much less actually hitting on them, so this was not credible. Some stories have been copy- ing too many of the original Star Trek episodes. The Voyager ep,isode "Faces," in which B Elanna Torres (chief engi- neer) gets split into her compo- nent human and Klingon parts, reminded me of "The Enemy Within." This was one of the best classic "original" Star Trek shows. In "The Enemy Within," Kirk is split into his component "halves" (good and evil) via transporter accident, and learns through the episode that he needs both halves of himself to survive. Without both halves, Kirk found that he wasn't a "whole" man. In "Faces," Torres learns through the episode that she needs both halves of herself to survive-s-just as Jim Kirk did. This story, while still good, is hardly original. Unfortunately, most of Voyagers shows don't do even this well on the origi- nality scale! Also, I have a real problem with Captain Kathryn Janeway. She seems to have a very incomplete, and at times even schizoid, personality. Most of the time, Janeway fails to pro- ject a commanding presence. Once again, the "pleasure seek- er" episode rears its ugly head. Man, this episode really had its problems! During this episode, Janeway was Far too indecisive with the "pleasure seeker" com- mander, mainly because she seemed attracted to him. Would this have ever happened to Jim Kirk? He would have charmed the "pleasure seeker" comman- der into giving up the technolo- gy! Sometimes, "love 'em and leave 'em" has its advantages. This leaves the decision to forcibly acquire the technology remember, Voyager does want to get home to the Alpha Quadrant in this lifetime to Tuvok, B'Elanna Torres, and Ensign Seska. In other words, they have the initiative that Captain Janeway lacked. When Janeway finds out that they did this, behind her back no less, she dresses down Torres, as any gOOd Captain would. However, her characterization fails when she plaintively wails to Tuvok, "I thought that you were my friend!" I don't know of any captain that would do this, ever I A captain might say instead, . "You're my friend and you do this? What kind of friend are you, anyway? Don't you EVER do' that again, or I'll throw you out' an airlock!" I On Voyager, the producers l wished to prevent the perceived mistakes of Star Trek: Deep . Space Nine, and avoid going for !i "in-depth character studies," ~ opting instead for "action- . adventure." It shows. Please, \~ Voyager, get some character development soon, before it's too' late! Otherwise, only dyed-in- . the-wool Trekkers will continue l r to watch, the ratings will fall, ' and Voyager will never live up Ie to the promise that it has tanta- II lizingly held out. II ~ Video Review Pulp Fiction • Ty Wilda Entertainment Editor Quentin Tarantino's breakthrough film, Pulp Fiction, will be released on home video this week and so it is time to take a look back at what made it such a talked about movie. Pulp Fiction begins and ends with a restaurant rob- bery. Between that there's the performance of a paid killing, a boxer's death a heroin overdose, a homo- sexual gang rape, a sense- less and silly accidental shooting death and the semi-literate philosophical ramblings of John Travolta as Vincent Vega. Not nec- essarily in that order. All this violence and more occurs in a time-shifting plot sequence that camofIages the fact that the film is truly more of an anthology than a full length feature. what Pulp is truly, is a tribute of sorts to the old gangster films of the '40s It is brutally violent and' non-stop. From the ram- bling debates of Jules and Vincent (Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta in capti- vating contrast to each other) to the desperation of the boxer, Butch (Bruce Willis) to the formal effi- ciency of Mr. Wolffe (Harvey Keitel) there is a sense that these characters are caught in a world out of their control and just try- mg to hang on. The world of this movie is an unreal place, driven by coinci- dence and luck, a world where everyone is a bad guy just doing what it takes to get to ,some sort of redemption, Some criticized the movie for its violent content. Yes, it does have a high body count and an air of sense- lessness. But rather than a glorification of violence it is merely a portrayal of it. The humor m the film is black and inappropriate. It u IS nervous laughter and shock. Not the cartoon vio- lence of the standard action flick, but a violence that gets its impact from bemg nasty and unbeliev- able. In the end, Pulp Fiction is film noir for the 90's. A send up of gangster movies, 1970s drug and blaxploitation films and even today's action hero. A hard hitting, no holds barred adventure that hides meaning in the meaningless and is real through unreality. rpCillIFicflonTfiVia =====~.~ Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document RANGER VOLUME 24 • ISSUE 19 • FEBRUARY 1996 Revised Plans For Phy. Ed. Building to Be Submitted .Mark Hahn Staff Writer Revised pl ans for the pro- posed Physical Education Building expansion project are being submitted to the State of Wisconsin in order to fit the building plan into the amount of money allo- cated for the project. "The State building com- mission took the project and said. 'We will give you $4.6 million for Phase 1 of the project.' But up to that point, the architects were working on a premise for a $9 million building," said Steve McLaughlin, dean of students. "When a project like this is cut down the middle, you have to go back and revise the project to fit within the $4.6 million limit. The University's plan is to go back (to the state) and request the other half of the money to finish the project as originally intended," said McLaughlin. "It provides challenges to get the functional space you need within that set dollar amount. Also, the longer you delay, the more costly it gets - construction costs go up as inflation does." The current project is in the hands of the architect, Brian Thom of Fisher, Fisher and Theis- a firm in the Waukesha-Milwaukee area. Thorn will be submitting a design report to the State of Wisconsin Division of Facilities Development (DFD) within the next week. In the project's final review, it will be studied by DFD personnel and will then go to the State build- ing commission for approval. According to William Streeter, assistant chancel- lor of administrative and fiscal affairs, the original program statement for the project went forward in 1992, to be funded in the 1993-95 biennium. "We didn't get the project that biennium, but the ... chancellor at the time, Sheila Kaplan, was able to United Council meeting held at Parkside ESTABLISHED 1972 get a commitment of $100,000 for planning money. We then submitted the total project for the 1995-97 biennium," said Streeter. Streeter said that when the State cut the original project in half last year, it was divided into two phas- es. "What we're working on right now are the-detailed plans for Phase 1, and we're also going forward to try to secure funds for Phase 2," said Streeter. "We want to complete the structure with a field house for the 1997-99 biennium." Renovations in Phase 1 of the PE Building Expansion Project include remodeling the first floor to provide additional locker room space, a separate training room, weight room and equipment issue room. Second floor renovations include additional classroom and office space, a confer- ence room, dance studio and aerobics fitness center.

Tropical Winter Mystery page 9 Cramped Space Brings Headaches -Mark Hahn Staff Writer Ever since becoming ath- letic director at UW- Parkside, Linda Draft has been struggling with cramped space and a lot of headaches. "This campus outgrew the PE Building the day it opened," commented Draft. "We've been asking for twenty years for an addi- tion, and its extremely frustrating for both the stu- dents and staff because there just isn't enough space for everybody who wants to be active. "The day in our building starts at 6 a.m. when the track teams starts practice, and doesn't conclude until 12-1 a.m. when the baseball and softball teams finish practicing," said Draft. Draft said members of Ranger sports teams at the university aren't the only ones hit hard by cramped space. "Its really hard when we also have lots of intramural teams and we have only two nights a week for them to play here," explained Draft. "At the same time, we get requests for other classes, and we don't have the space to put in additional evening classes.

Parkside Shuts Down ·No. I team -AI Heppner Sports Editor They didn't just beat the number one team in the nation, they almost no-hit them. The Ranger Softball team swept their first six games of the season at the Kennesaw State Classic Tournament, which included a 2-0 upset of Kennesaw State, the nation's number one team in NCAA Division n. UWP's Wendy Wolff (3-0) carried a no-hitter against Kennesaw into the final inning, before giving up a no-out double to pinch hitter Julie Eggert. The Kapla twins, Billi and Bobbi, each drove in a run in the win. "We were real satisfied (after the tournament), but we tried to keep it in per- spective. It's much too early to put a lot of emphasis on one tournament," said Coach Tory Acheson. Parkside, ranked #2 in the nation, also beat the #22 team, Columbus in the tour- ney. Kathy Kilsdonk had a two-out, two-run triple in the 5th to give the Rangers the lead for good. The team's accomplish- ments last weekend were even more impres- sive when you con- sider that all the other teams had started their sea- sons before enter- ing the tourna- ment. Parkside hadn't even prac- ticed outside yet. Acheson couldn't pinpoint an answer for his team's superb play, but said, "I don't know why, but the excitement of finally getting to play offsets the fact that we hadn't practiced outside yet." Wolff's pitching was complemented by Billi Kapla, who went 2-0 with a minuscule 0.47 ERA, and Freshman Kris VanLangevelde, who won her first game. Wolff's ERA is a basement-low 0.67. "The pitching staff did a great job," said Acheson. "It was a step in the right direction." 1995 NCAA II RBI and Home Run Queen, Jackie Aiken also came up big as usual. Aiken hit a team Rangers inAction best .471 in the tournament with three doubles. Junior Jessie Johnson was the other major force, batting .381 with two doubles and a triple. The only real damage to the Rangers, was done to themselves. Three players went down with injuries over the weekend. One was serious. The other two were not, according to Acheson. Parkside won't take over Touch-tone Registration - Mark Hahn Staff Writer Touch-tone registration may become a reality for UW-Parkside students as early as the 1996 fall semes- ter. "We're writing up a draft of a proposal right now, and the plan will be to have it open for a subset of students (to try out) by this November," said Susan Johnson, registrar and chair of the 'Ibuch-tone Registration Committee. Johnson said there has been a growing trend in the UW-System toward using touch-tone registration. Three institutions already implementing this technolo- gy are UW-Madison, UW-La Crosse and UW-Whitewater. "It will be really nice for students," explained Johnson. "Students will be able to register by phone, check their grades and their account balance. We'll even- tually put some kind of financial aid status in so the number one ranking just yet. The national poll is only taken every two and a half weeks, so the Rangers will have to dominate their two tournaments this week- end in Georgia and Orlando, Florida to move up. The road to the finals won't be easy either. In Georgia, they'll have to face no. 1 Kennesaw State again, who will definitely be geared up for the re-match. However, Acheson is more concerned with how his team finishes in the end of the season at the College World Series. "We have a chance to return to the national tour- nament and the potential to be a national championship contender," Acheson said. The contender's first home game is on April 10th against Carthage. students can check up on their applications too. But that's down the road a bit." Johnson said that funding for the project will come mostly from the drop-fee students pay when they drop a course during regis- tration. "I think that's a really good use for these funds- they go directly to benefiting the students," said Johnson. "That's what it should go for." Edward Meachen, associ- ate vice chancellor for infor- mation services, explained that for the university to purchase a product like touch-tone registration, a bidding process must be issued first.

It isn't guaranteed, but if funding is available, infor- mation kiosks could also be implemented by the fall of 1997. "Eventually, we would like to provide information kiosks to help students find out about course availability," said Meachen. "Students could also view their grade reports, transcripts and learn about upcoming events. Any number of pieces of information would be avail- able to students and staff." Meachen said at least two kiosks would be purchased- one to be installed in Main Place and the other in the Student Union. These are high-traffic areas at the uni- versity. system touches the keypad on the telephone to make various choices, the software puts the student's voice pat- terns together in a way that makes sense to the comput- er. The system then responds to corresponding instructions. Voice mail also operates in a similar man- ner. "I think the university is committed to getting this service for students, and it isn't tremendously expen- sive, but it might be time consuming for staff," explained Meachen. "If we can purchase the package this spring and get it installed in the summer, we could do a trial run in the fall for the 1997 spring term. But we'll definitely have it implemented in the "We've invited five ven- dors in to talk with us about their products, and each of them do have very nice products to offer," said Meachen. "The package we would be looking for would be a par- ticular company's software and hardware, and they would work together with our current student infor- mation, registration system and so on." Two companies the univer- sity has already considered for the project are Periphonics Incorporated and TRG Incorporated, The Robinson Group. Meachen explained that touch-tone registration involves voice-response soft- ware with a digitizing voice.

Lyall then stated that spe- cialized 140 credit degrees should be advertised as five- year programs. This four year guarantee is not for all students, especially those who only attend school part- time. This constitutes a good number of Parkside's stu- dents. Parks ide's additional dor- mitories, which are going to be built in '97, will bring more full-time students who will be able to use this pledge. "This optional guarantee .Jennifer Puccini Staff Writer Sigma Tau Delta Conference will help move students to degrees faster and serve more people with largely the same resources," said Lyall. David Stacy, president of United Council, disagrees with Lyall. "We don't think more than 1 to 2 % of the students will be able to take advantage of it," said Stacy. The Board of Regents will meet this Friday in Madison for their monthly meeting to discuss the four year guar- antee program. The 21st Century Committee, admin- istering the four year degree program, will convene in Madison this afternoon. When UW System President Katharine Lyall met recently with Parkside faculty and staff, she stated that the UW System might consider offering students a guarantee that they can fin- ish their degree in four years. Lyall said the Regents Study for the 21st Century is showing the need for a faster time to earn degrees. Students would have to agree to take certain courses so they can fmish a degree in four years.

Muthu looked for patterns, how the stories ended, and how the endings reflected the narra- tors' experiences. Michelle Steffens, a Molecular Biology graduate student, will be participat- ing in the Recognition Day for the second year in a row. Last year, Steffens was part of a team directed study, saying the event was "a ful- filling experience to see what goes on in other labs and departments ." This year, Steffens is detecting and characterizing mariner- like transposable elements in Tribolium Castanium and will present her procedures of research and her find- ings . Directed study gives the hands-on experience that most traditional classroom- oriented courses lack. A directed study strengthens the resume and appeals to potential employers . To enroll in directed study, students must meet the specified GPA require- ments in their field of study and designate a fac- ulty member to endorse their research. Directed study is designed for self- motivated , headstrong individuals with the initia- tive to get the job done. "Undergraduates put a lot of work into their pro- jects , and it's better to get recognition campus-wide than from just two or three professors," said Profe s sor Dale Wheeler of the chem- istry department . "It's good to be recognized by your peers ." The deadline for submis- Dr. Dale Wheeler sion is Thursday, March 21.

Health Care Lecture • Genevieve Guran Staff Writer people who seek treatment of relatively minor ailments in hospital emergency rooms. According to Wilk, 75% of those people can be helped by a visit with a nurse. Student Employm ent and the Career Center held its annual Summer Job Fair on March 5th and 6th. A total of 18 summer employers took applications from enthusiastic students dur- ing those two days. Freshman Sarah Bailey has been searching for a new sum- mer job for about a month. After seeing the diverse opportunities available at the Summer Job Fair, Bailey may be closer to the end of her search. . "The Job Fair was really informative," said Bailey. "I got a lot of ideas about jobs that I b never would have thought of efore." Many students have already se~ured a summer job. If you ~issed the Job Fair, and still t _ave nothing lined up there's 1 me t ' e O apply with many of the mployers . Here is a sample of what's available in the area. The Cities of Kenosha and Racine, along with their County parks, are hiring maintenance and golf course staff, starters, lifeguards, and concessions workers. Several job openings exist for the summer. Or if you would rather spend the summer at beautiful Lake Michigan, give Racine Reefpoint Marina a call. They need dock attendants, dockhands, security staff, deli store workers, clean- ing and maintenance help. Perhaps you're looking for the continuous summer party; why not apply at Summerfe_st -:; Milwaukee World Festivals. They are taking applications f?r operations and security staff, m addition to food and beverage staff. Applications are available in the Career Center. "Health Care for Low Income and Homeless People" was the topic of a lec- ture March 6 given by Joan Wilk, Associate Professor in the UW- Milwaukee/UW-Parkside consortia! nurs- ing program and director of the Shalom Community Nursing Center. The lecture was given as part of the university's Soup and Substance lecture series. Wilk discussed the importance of nurs- ing centers like the one at the Shalom Center (a homeless shelter and soup kitchen in Kenosha) as a means of deal- ing with the needs oflow-income and homeless people who do not have the health insurance or resources to seek a physician's care on a regular basis. The Shalom Nursing Center is a com- munity-based academic nursing center, one of three such sites affiliated with UW-Milwaukee's School of Nursing. In addition to providing a valuable clinical experience for nursing students, it is the primary source of health care for many of the guests of the Shalom Center. It is also a response to the large number of The nurses, nurse practitioners, and students provide primary health care, screening, and case management as well as promoting sound health and nutrition practices. The nurses commonly deal with health issues such as high blood pressure, diabetes, gastrointestinal prob- lems, respiratory illness, emotional prob- lems, and nutrition-related illness. Nursing centers provide the continuity in health care as well as the compassion that is often lacking in emergency rooms. Also, Wilk notes, taking health care to the people makes it more likely that they will receive early treatment of illnesses . It is estimated that there are 400 homeless people in Kenosha on any given night and far more low income people. They, like all of us, want and need quali- ty, compassionate health care. Practical, cost-effective and convenient centers such as the Shalom Nursing Center help to provide it. Celebrate VVomen's History Month with Novelist Christine Christie • Kristine Ziesemer Guest Writer UW-Parkside English Senior Lecturer Christine Christie, a pub- lished poet and non-fiction writer, has recently completed completed her first novel. Red Diaper Baby is an autobio- graphi~al account of her experiences as a young girl with her family. The term "red diaper baby " is used to describe children of those considered to be politically left . Christie's mother was actively involved in advocating equal rights for African-Americans , and she was also a union organizer. Very few women were involved in organizing unions back in the 1930's. These positions were large- ly thought of as men's jobs. Women's entries into these areas seemed radi- cal: Christie said her "mother was ahead of her time." In Red Diaper Baby Christie's family is harassed for expressing their convic- tions. Forced to change locationd, they frequently moved from place to place. "I grew up feeling many times like an outsider in my own country," said Christie. ''You don't have to be from politically-left families to feel that ." Those same feelings are shared by many ethnic people in this country. The book also deals with Christie searching for clues and ·information about her father who died when she was young. "There are many unan- swered questions regarding his disap- pearance that I'd like resolved." Unfortunately Red Diaper Baby is not available in bookstores. However, stu- dents, faculty and staff can listen to Christie read and discuss her book on Monda y, March 25 at 4 pm in the Wyllie Library's Overlook Lounge. This is a good chance to meet a woman writer who is indeed making her own mark on history. Summer Job Cont.

The Perfect Summer • Aaron Kapellusch Feature Writer Now that the snow is melted and the geese have begun to fly north by the hundreds, you may have started to think ahead to summer. Yes, summertime. Time to lay on the beach, get a tan, play volleyball. Okay, the real meaning of sum- mertime for most of us is trying to work as much as possible to stash some cash away fro the upcoming school year. If you are not one of these people, or want to find some- thing that you think might be enjoy- able, don't grab that highlighter and page through those classifieds just yet . There are much easier ways to start your job search. Before you even decide to look for a job, there are a few important · things to ask yourself first. What kinds of things do I enjoy to do and am good at as well? Is it something that will help me later after school with my occupation? What kind of hour s do I want to work? It is important to hav e some sort of id ea of what you would like to do, because there are so many opportu- nities for college students, that there is sure to be something that you are looking for. (Unless you are looking for that mythical job where you get to sleep and get paid for it.) Once you have an idea of what you would like to do, then it's time to start looking . On campus there is a vast resource of job listings. A great place to check some of these out in the Student Employment Center down in WYLL Dl 75. There are several books of listings that you can page through there, both for local and out-of-town work. If the thought of going back home to live with your parents for another summer just doesn't agree with you, then check out listings for jobs at various National Parks, private resorts, and children's camps. These jobs offer a chance to be away from home . Alaska might be a good place for you if you think that no place is far enough away from home. These jobs offer decent wages, often charge very reasonable or free room and board, and sometimes give you weekly spending allowances in addi- tion to your regular pay check. Once you have found some poten- tial jobs, send out some resumes , if required, and schedule some inter- views . As a small business owner, the most important thing that I look for when talking to someone who wants a job is dependability. This is the reason why you should think a lot about what kind of jobs and hours you are interested in. If you show that you are · a dependable per- son, then more than likely you are ahead of the game. Another thing you should do when interviewing for a job is be honest. If you try to say you have experi- ence that you don't, the employer is m ore than lik ely to see right through it. If they don't catch on during the interview, they will the first day of work when you haven't clue as to what you are doing. If you are asked if you know how to do something and don't know how, then just tell the employer, "No, but I would like to learn." Employers like people who show ini- tiative. The final piece of advice I can give you is just be yourself, and don't get nervous because the per- son interviewing you is probabaly just as nervous as you are. The summer it is time to find that job that you have been hoping for since the time that you were old enough to obtain a work permit. Don't sell yourself short as to what you can do because the resources are out there just waiting to be used by you. So update that resume and start to think about summer. And beware: summer is just around the corner! ~ + l Become ,.lf o.l\d otJ I \ft+ ne.
