There is a new chancellor, a new assistant chancellor, new housing and a new admissions policy. Parkside is facing a metamorphosis. Part of that change has been triggered by the new admissions policy. In the past, Parkside maintained an open admissions policy. In other words, virtually no one was denied entrance into Parkside. However* effective this semester the admissions policy has changed. Students will now be required to meet a set of necessary requirements before being allowed to attend Parkside. This does not mean that students unable to meet the requirements will be denied entrance, rather they will be deferred. "We don't deny anyone admission to Parkside," said Stuart Rubner, Director of Student Counseling arid Development. "We defer them until they have sufficient skill levels in reading, writing and math to ensure that when they do attend Parkside they stand a reasonable chance of succeeding." To be admitted to Parkside as a "standard admissions" student, one must place in the upper 50 percent of their high school class and have followed a particular pattern of courses "throughout high school. These courses include three years in English composition and/or literature, algebra, geometry and a four year total consisting of a combination of two years of social studies, science, or a foreign language. Admissions see page 6 Tuition on the rise . . . again by Gary L. Schneeberger Editor Despite the recent raising of Wisconsin's drinking age, it will be "business as usual" this year for the Parkside Union, according to Director Bill Niebuhr. "We're going to be operating under the same policy we always have, for the time being," Niebuhr said. "Our bartenders have the discretion to card or not to card based on their absolute knowledge that a person is ofage. "However," he continued, "what we're going to do is stress to bartenders that it's better for them to be overly careful than not careful enough." The state legislature approved the hiking of Wisconsin's drinking age in June, raising the legal age at which one can legally drink alcohol from 19 to 21. The law contains a "grandfather clause" which still allows those who turn 19 before September 1, 1986 to retain their drinking rights. According to Niebuhr, that "grandfather" provision might force the Union to change its alcohol policies in the next few years. "When the age group 'protected' by the grandfather clause can no longer drink legally, we might reach the conclusion that the number of people who can drink is so small that it won't even be worth running a day-to-day bar service," he said. "There's also the possibility." Niebuhr continued, "that we'll go with a beer island service-where some students have access to a section of the Union where alcohol is served and others don't." These and other options will be discussed by the Parkside Union Advisory Board (PUAB), which will recommend a course of action to Chancellor Sheila Kaplan, who possesses the authority of ul timate decision. Drinking see page 5 by Jennie Tunldeicz Is $693.50 a lot to pay for tuition? It could be more next year. Students must pay a larger percentage of instructional fees this year, which has resulted in a tuition increase. And unless groups against further increases are successful, tuition will continue to rise. Last spring the Wisconsin legislature voted to increase the percentage students pay for the cost of instruction from 30 percent to 31.5 percent for state residents with the state funding the remainder of the costs. Non-resident undergraduate tuition increased from 100 percent to 101 percent, and graduate student tuition also increased substantially. This semester state residents who are full-time undergraduate students are paying $601 fo r instructional fees, up from $538.50; nonresidents are paying $2,002.50, up from $1,855. In the UW-System seven years ago, it was traditional for students to pay only 25 perent of instructional fees. But inflation, and a study that showed Wisconsin tuition substantially below that of the Big Ten schools, persuaded the legislature to raise tuition. "We are still below the average (tuition) in comparison to Big Ten instutitions," said Gary Goetz, assistant chancellor for fiscal affairs. "The continuing issue before the legislature will be 'what is a fair rate to charge our students'?" said Goetz. Due to an enrollment decline, segregated fees which support student services and activities also increased $4, from $88 to $92 per semester. While tuition is the same at all UW campuses, segregated fees are set by each school. It appears these fees will also continue to rise. "We needed to increase the fees in order to hold on to program levels with the decreasing enrollment. Fees will definitely keep increasing because the needs of the university are increasing," said Goetz. Andy Buchanan, chair of SUFAC (Segregated University Fees Allocations Committee) the all-student committee which sets the fees, hopes enrollment has increased so that budgets won't have to be cut this year. "We set last year's budget up on the basis of a student enrollment prediction. If enrollment is up, we will have more money in the budget, but if enrollment is down we'll have to cut budgets," said Buchanan. Fighting to prevent further tuition and segregated fee increases are the Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA) and the United Council (UC) of W isconsin Student Governments, a student lobbying group. Last year when the legislature was discussing increasing tuition, Gov. Anthony Earl commented on the apparent lack of student concern about the increases. PSGA and UC hope to change that. "UC's biggest fight next year will be to keep tuition Tuition see page 4 Editorial Make a commitment It's that time of year again. Time to buy books, attend classes, do homework and take tests; time to take the furthering of your education one more step, to set higher goals in your pursuit of higher education. For whatever reasons, you'­ ve chosen Parkside as the place to accomplish these tasks. For some of you, 1986 is another in a number of years spent here. For others, this term marks your very first college experience. For all of us, however, it could, and should, be the best year of our lives. Parkside is not a perfect university; to say that it is would be trying to pull the wool over our own eyes. The campus has always been plagued by an "image problem," a euphemism created by its administration to describe its lack of direction and purpose. This has led to Parkside being knocked as a third-rate college that will admit anyone with a high school diploma in one hand and a check for the Bursar in the other. Despite these and other problems, however, this is and always has been a university with tremendous potential. And Parkside circa 1986 is in the perfect position to make the most of that untapped promise. This, year, we have new administrators, new on-campus student housing and a new admissions policy, factors which we at the Ranger believe will do much to erase Parkside's negative image. To make that erasure complete, however, we as students must develop (if Patti LaBelle will forgive us) a new attitude. An integral part of developing that new attitude is waking up to the possibilities Parkside offers us outside of the classroom. While academics should indeed be our number one priority, we owe it to ourselves to sample the extra-curricular student life options available to us. for it is in these activities that "getting an education" becomes much more than just "going to school." That's because the university experience, ideally, should teach us more than how to write a descriptive paragraph or balance a ledger. It should also teach us how to work together - how to appreciate and understand how we all interact in pursuit of a common goal. This year, let's make our goal the commitment to becoming committed. Take a good, long look at the student life opportunities available to you, choose one or more, and go for it. You'll be amazed at the difference your involvement can make - in yourself and in your university. Ranger staff revealed The Ranger is an awardwinning newspaper, and its staff is a dedicated, knowledgable core of students who want your input. Last spring, the paper was awarded First Class honors by the Associated Collegiate Press and a First Place with Special Merit distinction from the American Scholastic Press Association. This year, the entire staff wants to maintain the tradition of excellence and urges all students to visit the Ranger office (WLLC D-139, next to the Coffee Shop) with story ideas or suggestions. The following is a short introduction to the new Ranger staff. Don't hesitate to stop in and see any of them with your questions, comments or concerns. Gary Schneeberger, 21, begins his first year as Ranger editor-in-chief after serving last term as assistant feature editor. A May graduate with a BA in English, he is returning to Parkside to complete secondary education certification. In addition to his Ranger experience, Schneeberger has been a contributing editor to Happenings Magazine for almost four years and recently spent his summer as an intern with the Promotion Department of The Milwaukee Journal.

According to Martha St. Germaine, head of the Nontraditional Student Services Office, some experiences in employement, volunteer activities, seminar/workshop participation, publications and job training may be equivalent to college-level coursework. Students seeking credit for their "experiential learning" must develop a portfolio. The processing of such a portfolio costs the student far less than what it costs to take a course that would earn the student the same number of credits. inursaay, aepcemoer 4, s Club Events Accounting Club Geology Gerald Fowler, geologist at Parkside, will speak on Friday, Sept. 6 at 1 p.m. in GRNQ 113.

Women profs honored for teaching Laura Gellott, an assistant professor of history, and Esther Will, a specialist teaching biological sciences, were named recipients of 1986 Stella C. Gray/Alumni Association Distinguished Teaching Awards at the May graduation ceremony. Gellott, whose research specialty is the study of authoritarian society in central Europe in the 1930's, joined Parkside in 1982. She holds a PhD degree in modern European history from Madison, and traveled to Vienna to conduct research for her doctoral thesis on the Catholic Church in Austria. She returned to Vienna last year fdr further research. Gellott also holds master's and bachelor's degrees in modern European history from Marquette University. She was described by students as enthusiastic, knowledgeable and an exceptional communicator who takes a genuine interest in her students. Said one student: "Prof. Gellott is a terrific teacher. She knows her subject well and shares it enthusiastically." Colleagues also had praise for Gellott. Said one: ' 'Laura's teaching performance is outstanding. She develops a rapport in the classroom that greatly facilitates the learning process." Another colleague said, "Laura displays a vivid picture of historical events, which engages her students in a meaningful analysis of causes of change." Gellott was the recipient of a 1983 Lilly Post Doctoral Teaching Fellowship through a grant received by the UW System Undergraduate Teaching Improvement Council from the Lilly Endowment, Inc., of Indianapolis. Will, who also joined Parkside in 1982, holds a master's degree in physiology from Emporia (Kansas) State University, where she maintained a perfect 4.0 gradepoint average. She also has a bachelor's degree in biology from Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas. She teaches a number of biological science courses, inclouding anatomy, physiology and bioscience (the study of plants and animals). She also has developed special courses including one that examines the biology of men and women and can be taken for general science credit or as part of the Women's Studies Program. In being named for the Distinguished Teaching Award, Will was lauded for her enthusiasm for and commitment to her subject matter. She has been instrumental in keeping the anatomy laboratories up to date and was the primary force behind the university's acquisition of a cadaver that has greatly enhanced students' understanding of anatomy in health-related programs such as premedicine and nursing. Students and colleagues alike praised WU1 for her teaching exceUence, devotion to her subject matter and fairness in the classroom. Said one student: "She gives hard tests that make people think." Said another: "She creates a classroom where students want to show up." "Esther is really one of the brightest and friendliest persons I have had the pleasure to know," said one coUeague. "She's always willing to go the extra step to help her students. She's competent and dedicated and she's a joy to be around." Installation of call boxes steps up safety by Kelly McKJssick After overcoming legal and administrational barriers, Parkside wU finally receive an emergency communication system for its parking lots. The installation of the system which was purchased from Motorola for $19,000, should begin in late October. One of the original problems with the installation of these one watt boxes was a violation of Federal Communications Commission (FCC) codes. According to Jim Marks, assistant director for business services, the original license issued to Parkside for the call boxes was strictly for security. However, a new license was applied for which would allow anyone to operate the boxes. The FCC has not yet approved the new license, but Marks assumes they will. "It was a long, drawn-out process," he admits. "The students wanted this system and I'm glad we got it. Now we don't need to hire another person to man the control center." Security guards on patrol can pinpoint which box the caU is coming from and respond. The Department of Administration (DOA) proved to be another hindrance in the installation of the call boxes. The DOA was the final body which had witheld approval, waiting until late June 1986 to allow the installation of the call boxes. The system was approved provided that the organizations involved with the pursuit of call boxes satisfied themselves with the legalities of the situation (in-- cluding changing the license). Jenny Price, interim director of student life, explained that "one of the most significant things about the call boxes is that it represents a huge triumph after a long struggle to do something for the safety of the people." ©©©©©©«©©©©©©©©©Qfrtrfr V 1 y Video Kingdom TAPE SALES & RENTAL AND COMPUTER SOFTWARE BACK TO SCHOOL SPECIALS • $1.50 for generic discs (Show Parkside I.D) • All computer software 3101-52nd Street Kenosha programs and games 12% off retail 414-654-5875 © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © WANTED: Secretary S4.00 per hour Flexible hours Must type © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © ® © ©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©jp Apply in PSGA Office: WLLC D139A553-2244 RAMr^r, Kaplan Chancellor addresses new year's goals 4 Thursday, September 4. I9fifi Tuition from page 1 from rising, and eventually even lower it," said Adrian Serrano, PSGA president and UC vice president. Bryce Tolefree, UC president, said a grass roots effort at all the system campuses, featuring a petition drive, is one way UC plans to let the legislature know that "students are against further increases." "We want to stabilize and maintain segregated fees at campuses also," said Tolefree, which he feels will set a good example to the legislature. Tolefree encouraged students to take part in the campus efforts. He also wants students to find out about candidates running for legislative positions this fall. "Challenge them and find out how they feel about education and tuition. Show them how you feel with your vote," he said. by Gary L. Schneeberger Editor Recruitment, retention and increased respect-those are the Three R's as viewed by Sheila Kaplan, Parkside's new chancellor. "Parkside has had an instability in enrollment over the years," explained the personable, frank native of Brooklyn, New York. "We can and should accomodate more students. "Several significant things have already been done-such as the change in admission requirements, the development of the freshman seminar program and the orientation program. "Continued improvement, however, has to remain a priority for us, and I'm optimistic that these and other actions will initially stabilize and then turn around our enrollment declines." Strengthening Parkside's enrollment figures is just one of a set of goals Kaplan has set for herself since arriving from the Minnesota State University System, where she served as chief academic officer. Those goals are her response to System President Kenneth Shaw's request that all system chancellors submit written objectives to him to help the Board of Regents evaluate UW campuses. Recruitment of new and better students is part of Kaplan's plan to increase enrollment. She believes the new on-campus' student housing will allow Parkside "to recruit from a larger geographical area. It will also change us in some perceptible way; by having residential students, we'll make the university more exciting and attractive to others." Another priority is redefining the school's statement of purpose, or mission. Originally designed as a professional/technical institution, Parkside has, over the last few years, earned a reputation as a small liberal arts school. Kaplan believes it may be time to get back to the original course. "We've been criticized because the original mission of the institution never seemed to be implemented," she says. "I think we need to look at our mission and ask the question, "What should it be now?" "We want to maintain the strength we have in liberal arts and sciences," Kaplan added in partial answer to that question, "but we'd like to see some expansion in professional program areas, and maybe even the development of new kinds of professional programs." "However," she continued, "I don't think the decision should be left entirely to us. We should also invite the community to discuss what that mission should be, so that what comes out in the end is reflective of how we see ourselves as well as how our constituents see us." Becoming more actively involved with the community is another goal for Kaplan in her first year as chancellor. "I've been meeting with business and community leaders and legislators to get a better sense of what we might do to be more visible in this area," Kaplan said of community involvement. "There is a very positive image of Parkside in Kenosha and Racine, but it's also an image that is somewhat blurred. "People think well of us, but they don't know a lot about us. They think the university can help them, but they're not sure how to go about asking us for help.' of the ways Kaplan thinks Parkside can service the community is to direct its research and creative activ ity in that direction. "There are faculty members here who are already working with local businesses and industries on various projects, and we could certainly do more of that," she said. "I was recently talking with the mayor of Kenosha and he was informing me of some analytical studies he needs. There are undoubtedly some faculty here who would be interested in working on those particular projects." Addressing the concerns of minorities is another way Kaplan thinks Parkside can reach out to its surrounding community. "Given our location," she explained, "we have a special obligation to relate to the minority population. Parkside has the second highest percentage of minorities in the system, and while we have done some things in the pastsuch as the CHAMP program- -one of the things I want to do is work with the school districts to see if, together, we can put plans and programs in place that would help minority students." In^ the course of setting goals and settling into her new job, Kaplan has answered many questions from many interviewers. "Nobody's really asked me if I liked the job," she says, "but I do. I think that when a new person comes in as a college president or chancellor, the chemistry has to be right. "All of the candidates have the technical capabilities to do the job, but there has to be an affinity there for it to really work. I feel very comfortable at Parkside-I like what the university is all about." Ranger Needs Writers THE OLD BOOK CORNER 312 — 6th St. Racine Gently Used Books on all subjects.

Gary Grace stated as his primary attraction to UW-Parkside. Grace said he was also impressed with the committment to shared governance and to people that the students and faculty at Parkside demonstrated during his interviewing process. Grace felt that with Chancellor Kaplan also joining the university, that it now has a spirit aimed at the future. He is anxious to build a student life program for the future of Parkside that reflects the energy he and Chancellor Kaplan bring to their new positions. Grace, 37, joined Parkside on August 18 from Morehead State in Kentucky where he was responsible for planning and implementing a student development program in which he supervised and coordinated such areas as financial aid, student activities, counseling, career planning and student housing. Grace's own committment to shared governance comes from his belief that "all of us together are much smarter than one of us individually." He has been meeting with each of the areas that report to him to get a sense of what the plans are to improve student life in each of these areas. "One priority I have rather immediately is to stabilize the student affairs organization. Part of this is to determine what our mission is in student affairs. Service to students and recruitment and retention are key elements, Gary Grace but there is more to it than that. Part of the problem is that there are three acting directors. You will never get to addressing improving student life if the staff is not stable," said Grace. Grace wants to give the student life area some attention quickly and wants to get input from the students regarding what is important to them, what they want and what they feel they are not getting now. The areas that need permanent directors are student enrollment services, minority student services and student life. When questioned about the importance of student input on search and screem committees for student life employees, Grace stated that "the only way to be sure that the folks that you are hiring are understanding of student needs, are committed to students and have a belief in helping students is to get student reaction and input in the decision." He admitted that he may disagree with stpdents about who is the final authority on the decision because of the administrative functions required of the person hired. Recruitment and retention is a definite priority this year and Grace is working with his directors to put the campaign together. He sees the opportunity as a great challenge because so much has to be done at once. Grace felt that recruitment is much more than just talking about attending Parkside because choosing a college is an enormous decilsion. What he would like to define in the next few weeks is what the key markets are. j Men & Young Men's Shop If It's In Style, It's At Gino's Collections For Her "We build our reputation on personal service" See Kenosha's newest YOUNG MEN'S SHOP at Gino's (upper level) featuring the latest in jackets, shirts, pants and shoesVisit Connie's (next door) for the newest FALL styles for women.

"Unless student government or some other organization would decide to to have some open hearings where students could voice their opinions, the input would basically be via the structures of PSGA and PUAB," Niebuhr said. "If something else is going to happen, someone's going to have to make it happen." There is also the possibility, according to Niebuhr, that the Board or Regents will draft a system-wide proposal regarding drinking policy changes. "At this point, we aren't really sure if we'll be making a decision or if they'll be making a decision for us," he said. Faculty receive promotions The promotions of nine faculty members have been approved by the UW system Board of Regents. Promoted from associate professor with tenure to full professor are James Dean and Alan Shucard, English; Richard Keehn, economics; and Constantine Stathatos, Spanish. Promoted from assistant professor without tenure to associate professor with tenure are Siegfried Christoph, German; Thomas Fournelle and Youn Woo Lee, mathematics; Ross Gundersen, biological sciences; and Skelly Warren, dramatic arts. The promotions are based • on teaching and research excellence as well as service to the community. Deadline for student teaching applications is Sept. 15 in the Education Division office. - Wed. 9/10 & Thurs.9/11 10:30 AM-3 P M DATE Bookstore TIME PLACE • 6 Thursday, September 4, 1986 RANGER Hendricks CHAMP director named Deborah Hendricks, formerly assistant director of the Educational Opportunity Program at Marquette University, has been named the new director of Parkside's nationally recognized CHAMP program, designed to encourage and motivate junior and senior minority high school students to prepare for post-secondary education. Hendricks, 29, replaces Lois Scott, who has returned to teaching in the Racine Unified School District after directing CHAMP since 1983. Hendricks holds a master's degree in interpersonal communication with an emphasis' on administration and supervision from Marquette. She also holds a bachelor's degree in speech pathology from that institution. CHAMP, which stands for Creating Higher Aspirations and Motivations Programs, was created by Parkside in 1979. About 500 students currently are enrolled in the four-year program, which consists of students in the 9th through 12th grades who attend six-week summer sessions at Parkside. In 1983 Hendricks became assistant director of Marquette's Educational Opportunity Program, which provides information and counseling on post-secondary education to first-generation, low-income persons including minorities, the disabled, veterans and women. Prior to that Hendricks worked in the program a year as an academic, personal and career counselor, and from 1980 to 1982 was tutorial coordinator of the program. Her expertise includes extensive knowledge of resume writing and job interviewing, topics on which she Deborah Hendricks has presented seminars for state employees and for Milwaukee students. Hendricks also designed and coordinated an eightweek tutorial program Admissions Admissions from page 1 Students unable to meet these criteria are required to take the placement tests prior to applying for admission. If at this point the student is able to place in English 100, Math 015 and is reading at approximately a tenth grde level, that student will be admitted as a "conditional admissions" student. A conditional student requires "prescriptive advising." That is a counselor will prescribe, so to speak, the necessary courses and provide specific guidance until the conditional student has reached standard student levels. When a student is unable to meet the criteria of either the standard or conditional student, a manual decision must be made as to whether or not admission will be granted. At this point, a selected counselor will sit down and study a student's file and make the decision whether or not this student should be admitted to Parkside based on the student's academic record, students who are deferred are then advised on how to better prepare themselves for colle ge.

Rubner pointed out that the new admissions policy is not designed to make it more difficult for the student. It is there to help the student. "We are urging students to slow down and better prepare themselves for college," said Rubner. Futhermore, he commented, "In the long run Parkside should see a better quality student. Initially, we may see fewer enrollments, but down the road, people will be applying to Parkside, trying to get in, because they know it has a good reputation. All the Smart Women Shop at...

Hancock, 47, comes to Parkside from UW-Whitewater, which he joined in 1980. While at Whitewater he established and administered that campus* first Small Business Institute, which has advised and assisted dozens of area companies in areas ranging from market analysis to personnel management. Hancock also was a management lecturer in Whitewater's College of Business and Economics, and organized and taught numerous non-credit business outreach programs. Hancock holds an MBA degree from Milwaukee and a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Madison. From 1972 to 1980 he was a research engineer in the Advanced Technology Center at Allis Chalmers in Milwaukee, and from 1968 to 1971 he was a project application engineer at Twin Disc, Inc. in Racine.

Although this is the usual time and the usual place for S.O.C. to meet, changes are expected in the organization this year. "We're looking to change the format of S.O.C. to more closely resemble the general assembly of the student government," said Bill Serpe, S.O.C. chair. "The council operates as a standing committee of the P.S.G.A., but last year we became a much stronger entity. We found ourselves being sought for endorsement of P.S.G.A. resolutions and a strong forum for university inforamtion." According to Serpe representatives will be added to the council from the Ranger, Parkside Activitites Board and Peer Support. "These will not be voting seats, but rather informational opportunities and rumor control. The council is the broadest base of student opinion, and it will be to our advantage to have these extr people on board to provide needed data to keep the record straight." Serpe continued, "Too often information is given at our meetings that isn't quite correct, and it would save a lot of inconvenience for everyone if we had all the people there that we need to keep everyone abreast." Serpe has invited all the new administrative people to the first meeting. "I want as many people as possible to see who these new people are.

"Learned Ladies" will be presented in the evening on Oct. 24, 25, 31 and Nov. 1, with a matinee on Thursday, Oct. 30. The cast will consist of five men and five women. "Rehearsals are usually scheduled in the evenings, Monday through Friday," said Van Dyke, "and cast members can receive university credits for being in the show." "The Peppermint Bear Show" will be presented on Dec. 7,13,14, 20 and 21. "This is the third year that we will be doing "The Peppermint Bear' and will continue to do it every year. It is an PAB excellent opportunity for students to learn all facets of theater production," explained Van Dyke. "This show is scheduled as a four-credit production workshop and meets as a class three times a week. During that time the members of the cast will not only rehearse the show, but will also work on all of the other areas of the production." According to Van Dyke, this year's "Peppermint Bear Show" will be directed by Professor Lisa Kornetsky, who has just been added to the full-time academic staff of the Dramatic Arts Discipline. Auditions for these two shows will be held on Monday, Sept. 8 from 3:30 to 5 p.m. and at 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 8 and Tuesday, Sept. 9.

Diane Welsh, newly hired student activities program advisor (SAPA), knows that getting students involved on campus is a major part of her job. Welsh came to Parkside this August after spending eighteen months at Ball State University, where she served as acting assistant director of the student center. She earned her masters in business administration from Ball State after having received her bachelor of business administration from Whitewater in 1984. As SAPA, Welch will be busy trying to get students involved via her numerous functions. She will advise the Parkside Activities Board (PAB) and will coordinate and advise additional campus activities such as Homecoming, Winter Carnival, College Bowl, the Arts and Crafts Fair, the Very Special Arts Fair, and other related student activities. Welsh is pleased to be at Parkside. especially at this Diane Welsh time. "I think now is a good time to join the staff because of the new administration and the new housing. Now is the time for opportunity and growth," she said. Welch said she was anxious for school to begin. "I'm looking forward to working with students on campus," she said, "to see what programs will work. It's difficult to plan things when you don't know the student body." One way Welsh and the members of PAB have of finding out what the students want is through the current PAB survey. The survey, which was Welsh's idea, was designed to "assess the needs of students as they relate to PAB and PAB events and to use the results to plan activities and programs that the students want," said Welsh. In the four weeks prior to the start of school, Welsh had a chance to talk with some of the leaders of student organizations. "In talking with the students, I've fountf them to be excited about the new administration and optimistic about Parkside's future," she said. Welsh too is excited about Parkside and her role in its future. "Everyone has been real helpful in showing me what's been happening on campus," she said. Welsh's involvement in promoting student activities has a long history. For example, she served as center- /program board president her senior year at Whitewater and she was recently on the Wisconsin steering committee of the National Association of Campus Activities (NACA). Students surveyed soc Reorganization being planned The Parkside Activities Board will be distributing a survey during the beginning of fall semester. The survey is designed to determine the interests and needs of Parkside students in terms of activitites programming.

MMiM iiiii; ililif * RANGER Sandra Bernhard Thursday, September 4,1986 9 Exclusive interview with cult heroine by Jim Neibaur Entertainment Editor Since her fascinating performance in Martin Sorcese's haunting "The King of Comedy," Sandra Bernhard has been an entertainer deserving intelligent appreciation. "When you work with the best people," said the 31-year old comedienne during a recent interview, "you can't help looking good." The film, which starred Jerry Lewis and Robert DeNiro, was a triumph for Bernard, but not so much as a comedienne. The role she played so masterfully was not a comedy role, but the role of a very tragic, detached person. And it did not, as many thought, bring Bernhard further activity in "serious" comedy films. "I'm very interested in doing movies," she said, "but have you seen what's been coming out of Hollywood lately?" As with many comics whose desires are both style and substance, Bernhard has scripted her own film. Tentatively entitled "It Came From Poland," Bernhard describes the film as "a comedy with human values. I play a cynical New York writer, and there's this girl from Poland who becomes the catalyst that changes my character's beliefs and outlooks. We're looking for a director right now. I'd Ike Martin Scorcese or, perhaps, Hal Ashby." Many female entertainers have stated that women still have a difficult time obtaining decent roles in screen comedies. A classic example is Lucille Ball's magnificent comic talents being suppressed by filmmakers who continually cast her as a vapid ingenue until she began producing her own TV series and proved her comic worth. A contemporary example is Goldie Hawn, whose efforts are self-financed. Of that viewpoint, Bernhard stated, "It's a weird, mixed bag. I have mixed feelings about women; I'm not a hardcore feminist. But in Hollywood, anyone confident is deemed threatening." Until she manages to do her movie, Sandra keeps busy doing live performances and occasional television appearances (some of her appearances on "Late Night with David Letterman" have achieved legendary status). "Live comedy is a great outlet to say things about life and culture that you feel are important," she said. It takes an innate timing to perform comedy. A natural ability. Comedy is very instinctive. "I'm very happy doing what I'm doing. You learn a great deal as you go along, and I've learned a lot. And yet I realize I still have a lot more to learn. It's a thrill to have people come and see me, and acknowledgements from your peers is really an exciting thing." Bernhard's live show is a very interesting sixties-toseventies comic turn of serious statements in the eighties. She relates things as an onlooker; her perception of the surrounding vapidity. She works spontaneously with audience reaction and encourages their participation often. Once in a while she uses music (she has an LP on Polygram records that's quite a popular, unique little item) and is backed by multikeyboardist Mitch Kaplan. The nasty comic swipes she takes at pretention are perceptive in their execution. "I see myself as a 'borderline' performance artist," said Bernhard, "and my comedy is a combination of different viewpoints." l&llfc Sandra Bernhard has achieved a strong fan following. Bernhard is already a substantial entertainer and has tremendous potential to be even more as she enters different facets of show business. Remembering TV actor Knight by Jim Neibaur Entertainment Editor Actor Ted Knight's death of cancer last week brings to mind the Ted Baxter character from the early-to-mid 1970's rather than the more recent "Too Close for Comfort" or "Ted Knight Show." The Baxter character emphasized the ego and insecurities that are so often found in persons in the public eye. Baxter was in the public eye in a relatively small scale (as newscaster on a local Minneapolis television station), but he saw his position as much greater, comparing himself favorably to the likes of Cronkite or Severied. Knight's presentation of this humourous and telling character was one of the many ingredients that made "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" among the most important sitcoms of the early seventies (which was second "Golden Age of TV" boasting "The Bob Newhart Show," "All in the Family" and "Mash.")

The Honors Program. "I think if more students gram and what it is, they would become involved in it," said Rosanne Mason, a student assistant of the program. Until the Honors Program, the only way to graduate with distinction was solely based upon the students' grade point average (GPA). The Parkside Honors Program gnuuy AVAILABLE IN THE UNION $ V J WELCOME BACK STUDENTS! LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU FOR THE 1986-1987 SCHOOL YEAR "SSSSSSS" presents an alternative route to graduation with distinction to interested and qualified students. Students who have a 3.2 or higher overall GPA will qualify for graduation with distinction by completing 15 credits of honors course work with at least half of the credits outside the student's major. Any completed honors course will be marked on the students' transcripts if the grade in the specified course is a B plus or higher. Honors courses are arranged agreements between individual students and the instructors. The agreements specify certain terms which the student must fulfill in order to receive the distinction. These special terms can be anything from writing an extra term paper to interviewing actors. Besides arranging an agreement, there is another method of earning honors credit - enrolling in the Honors Seminar. The Freshmen Honors Seminar is a new honors seminar to be offered this fall. It is part of a new program of freshmen seminars. The main function of this seminar is for students to find out about college life and to make new college friends. It is taught by Professor Carol Lee Saffioti and is a three honors credit course. The Senior Honors Seminar, called "The End of Time" is the other honors seminar offered at Parkside and is also a three honors credit course. This program, however, adds a new twist by reaching out beyind the boundaries of Parkside. Professor Walt Graffin will be joining faculty from a small Lutheran coeducational liberal arts college (Carthage College) and a small Catholic liberal arts college for women (Mount Mary College). The students will experience different campus settings, use the institutions and meet with different professors. The content of the course covers literature, art, music and film with apocalyptic themes. Other activities of the Honors Society include taking field trips to plays in Chicago, operas in Milwaukee, as well as picnic get-togethers which should prove to be more exciting this year because of the new campus housing. The new honors lounge, located in Moln D113 should be a big benefit. "It's an out-of-the-way place where students can come and relax," said Beecham Robinson, director of the Honors Program, adding that the greatest advantage of enrolling in honors course work comes after graduation when job hunting. "When talking to former honors students, I found that the honors notation helps give students an edge. \RANaEE_ Movie review "Stand by Me99 by Jim Neibaur Entertainment Editor Rob Reiner's recent screen effort as writer-director, "Stand By Me," is more than simply the best project he has ever been associated with. It is, quite frankly, one of the most important and insightful American films ever made. The film is a thoughtprovoking study of pre-adolescent vulnerability, taking serious dead aim at a part of life that is often overlooked in movies. For all the films that have been done regarding the adolescence-to-adulthood transition, taking issue with the entrance into adolescence is a rather innovative screen concept. The film is set in 1959, Reiner giving the viewer a keen insight into the era with excellent period flavor (songs, settings, styles). It deals with four diverse, yet genuine, 12-year old male "types" and their quest to find the body of one of their peers, a missing lad presumed dead. Their search for this dead youth spurns the youngan emotionally stirring hit sters into analyzing their own worth. Reiner allows for the boys to emerge as serious, thinking human beings rather than vapid "gee whiz" stereotypes, eschewing American film's usual idealization of childhood. Beyond the strong script (based on a novella by Stephen King), excellent direction and production techique and emotionally powerful performances, there is the strong underlying theme of just how vulnerable childred (and childhood) is in the context of adult society. That it is set in 1959 intensifies how little things have changed in over a quarter-century. While appearing only briefly, John Cusack (star of Reiner's 1985 comedy "The Sure Thing") ties the loose ends of the various character studies together in the pivotal role as older brother to one of the youngsters, a high school football hero snuffed out in a car crash whose likeness recurs in his younger brother's fantasies. Cusack's character is the embodiment of everything these misfits would like to be, are expected to be, but cannot be. And he is the one sympathetic character toward the younger boys. That he was killed (shown with a clever Buddy Holly analogy) makes the message of youthful vulnerability even more powerful. "Stand By Me" is definitely a landmark film with regard to its subject matter. That is matter is treated with such great perception makes it an even more important > cinematic achivement. Passionately recommended. * Short by Jim Neibaur Entertainment Editor ONE CRAZY SUMMER Savage Steve Holland's latest teen comedy lives up to the wild uninhibited spirit that characterized the filmmaker's debut, "Better Off Dead." Stars John Cusack, Demi Moore and Bobcat Goldwaith cavort about a beach setting with explosive off-kilter slapstick gags that reveal a great deal of technical style. However, the substance behind the humor is what keeps "One Crazy Summer" from achieving serious pretensions. The film takes nasty comic swipes at yuppies, relatives, jocks, bigots and virtually every depiction of capitalism imaginable -all contemporary American images. Maybe that's why the critics don't like this movie. Maybe that's why I did. ARMED AND DANGEROUS "Poorly scripted and unfunny" is more apt a title for this feeble copper picture starring John Candy and Eugene Levy. Stemming somewhat from the commercial success of the "Police Academy" series, "Armed and Dangerous" recalls virtually every cliched comic-as-cop gag that has ever graced the silver screen. Some labored humor when Candy and Levy don disguises in a porno book store, but the obligatory chase scene that climaxes the film is a slick example of packaged comedy product. ALIENS Fast, furious and exciting: this scare flick is an explosive roller coaster ride of a movie that has been doing some mega-box office. But that's it! There is a lot of technical competence hopping about, but no substance whatsoever. It is yet another bluntly visceral experience that provides no genuine point for its madness (other than making some money). Sigourney Weaver does well in the lead role, and there is something positive about a woman hero in an American film, but, c'mon now, a female "Rambo" we don't need. But perhaps that's the ticket. Sylvester Stallone's ultraright-wing "Rambo" was another huge moneymaker. And that film DID have a point, a frightening and grizzly point at that. In the end it is somehow rather unsurprising that the screenwriter for "Aliens" is also the guy who co-scripted "Rambo" with Stallone. EXTREMETIES OK, so it's not a very good movie. But it does have a certain perverse importance.

(Subject to signing lease contract. First of all, it solidifies Farrah Fawcett's acting abilities as previously demonstrated by "The Burning Bed" (and suppressed by everything else she'd done). Secondly, it presents a far more feasible motivation for fighting back than anything Clint Eastwood, Chuck Norris or Charles Bronson ever appeared in. Farrah is a rape victim who gets fed up with the endless bureaucracy and decides to take matters into her own hands. That the ugliness of rape gets its just desserts is what makes this lackluster film so undeniably appealling. Perhaps had the film been scripted and directed with more depth it would have emerged as a very thought-provoking and important effort. No such luck. FILM ON CAMPUS To kick off the 86-87 school year, the PAB will be presenting "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" as its first presentation in the Union Cinema. While basically a benign and schlocky cinema mess. "Rocky Horror" does have its importance via reputation. It is the audience that is the show with most "Rocky Horror" screenings, but that doesn't make the film itself any better on its own terms. Some persons have read an actual message beneath the strident narrative of "Rocky Horror" -something about freedom of sexuality. Actually the only point this movie has is that it allows people to have a good time cutting loose BECAUSE of its ineptitude and not in spite of it. One of the greatest enigmas in film history. soc SOC from page 7 Chancellor Kaplan and Assistant Chancellor Grace are dedicating themselves to this university and I want them to have the chance to meet S:O.C. people first hand.

Shaw carefully examines all iihe most important American musical styles as created by the original black artists, including coverage of such important performers as Count Basie, Jellyroll Morton, Muddy Waters, Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Wonder. The author extends into the various sub-genres and offshoots of jazz, blues, rock and R&B (such as disco, funk, heavy metal, etc.). In the end, all American music has been carefully analyzed.

It simply states the facts: that American music, with very few exceptions, was created by black Americans. There is some discussion regarding white artists who put these musical sub-genres on the map, most notably Elvis Presley, who earned his "king of rock" monicker by introducing original black R&B compositions to white radio during the segregated fifties, thus opening the doors for such black artists as Little Richard, Chuck Berry and Fats Domino. "Black Popular Music in America" is a book which forms the basis for any truly serious understanding of popular music. THE COLUMBIA COMEDY SHORTS by Ted Okuda and Ed Watz (McFarland) Okuda and Watz are two very astute writers on the cinema, so "Columbia Comedy Shorts" is as much a thorough analysis of an important aspect of the movies as it is a reference guide. Short films opened for features at movie houses of the twenties, thirties and forties, but Columbia hung on almost til 1960, long after television sounded the death knell for short subjects. The axis of this studio's shorts department were the ever-enigmatic Three Stooges, to whom ample coverage is given. But the many other important names in Columbia comedies (Charley Chase, Buster Keaton, Andy Clyde, etc.) are also covered extensively. The tome includes complete filmographies and critical studies for each series produced in the Columbia shorts department and biographical data on important producers, directors, and performers, with telling quotes interspersed throughout the text, taken from interviews conducted by the authors. The book is available from McFarland & Co. Publishers at Box 611, Jefferson, NC 28640 at 29.95 plus 1.50 shipping. It is a must for libraries and students of film. THE NINE LIVES OF MICKEY ROONEY by Arthur Marx (Stein and Day) This semi-authorized work by Arthur, "son of Groucho" Marx is a warts-and-all study of a fascinating performer. Accented is Rooney's uncanny resilience in showbiz, having reached ultimate highs and lows so often during his long, fascinating career. Along with lauding Rooney's talent and versatility, the book also makes note of his idiosyncratic behavior and several failed marriages, serving to enlighten the reader and allow a greater understanding of this actor. It is one of the most interesting of all biographies, being factual without being dry and honest without being scandalous. SAY GOODNIGHT GRACIE by Cheryl Blythe and Susan Sackett (Dutton) The George Burns-Gracie Allen story, with an emphasis on Gracie, this book affectionately traces the professional and personal development of this treasured comedy team. Burns has written several autobiographical studies, so the bio data is often a repeat of what we've already read. However, Blythe and Sackett interestingly correlate the duo's humorous on-screen activities with their deeply affectionate romance, and present another interesting facet to the story. By celebrating Burns and Allen's comic cohesion onscreen (George being the perfect sounding board for Grade's daffy malapropisms), and their romantic bliss offscreen (the marriage lasted until Gracie's death in 1964), the book allows the reader to understand George's true obsession and inspiration as an entertainer (being, of course still active today at age 90). "Say Goodnight Gracie" is an enthusiastic, uplifting showbiz story. MOVIES ON TV by Steven Scheuer (Bantam) This paperback guide to films on television, with starratings and brief critical comments on all movies available to TV, is far less worthy than Leonard Matlin's similar "TV Movies." Foreign films set Parkside's Foreign Film Series is perhaps the campus' best cultural event. This year is no exception. Several of the most important foreign films of recent years have been selected for this series, which takes place in the Union Cinema on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. As per the insert, titles for this series include Mikhalkov's "A Slave of Love," Tacchella's "Cousin Cousine" and Fellini's "Ginger and Fred." The USA is represented by a Chaplin double feature ("The Gold Rush," which is the film he wanted to be remembered by, and "City Limits," which is consideredby afficianados to be his masterpiece) and Robert Altman's "Secret Honor." Season tickets are available through the mail or can be held at the box office. Regular price is $17, while student- /senior citizen price is $15.

Interestingly enough, this LP sounds more Van Halenesque than the recent Van Halen-sans-Roth effort "5150." "Yankee Rose," the hit, contains the rudiments of everything Van Halen (and Roth) were back when they burst onto the rock and roll scene in 1978. To fill the tremendous void left by the absence of guitar whiz Eddie Van Halen, Roth Shortcuts has hired Steve Vai, whose solos often cut Edward's similar work. Billy Sheehan on bass and Gregg Bissonettte on drums help round out this powerful quartet that, like early Van Halen, depends on the uninhibited passion of Roth's vocals to motivate the tracks. Along with the aforementioned hit. Roth soars through such originals as "Elephant Gun" and "Bump and Grind," two cuts that emphaize his sexist front (as the LP's title does quite blatantly). Covers include the old Nashville Teens rocker "Tobacco Road," the bluesy "I'm Easy" (not the one from the "Nashville" movie soundtract) and "That's Life," which was a big hit for Frank Sinatra in 1966. On the latter, Roth exhibits perhaps the key to his enormous appeal. The song's lyrics are very positive, uplifting and optimistic, much like Roth's persona. Despite the setbacks he encountered during his break with Van Halen (said not to be amicable at all), Roth has bounced back (as per the song), and has achieved at least the same commercial success as his former bandmates. "Eat 'em and Simle" is far less eccentric than Roth's solo debut EP last year ("Crazy from the Heat"), and far more rocking. All of the band members turn in exceptional performances and present the listener with the type of rock and roll energy one has come to expect from the likes of this singer. When Roth was replaced by Sammy Hagar in Van Halen last year, many fans of that group feared one or the other would flounder. "5150's" success states that Edward and the boys are in no danger and that Hagar is quite comfortable in Roth's old position. "Eat 'em and Smile," however, is so much more like early Van Halen than "5150," it may very well be telling us just who was the truly creative rocker in the band. David Lee Roth. Smiths, Neil Young among new releases LITTLE MISS DANGEROUS by Ted Nugent (Atlantic) Ted Nugent's man-of-loincloth persona seems a natural for today's times, but his rocking inspiration has apparently left him. On "Little Miss Dangerous," Nugent's work is very similar to any other rock and roll band out pounding in the recording studio. The animal magnetism that characterized such classics as "Free for All" and "Cat Scratch Fever" are missing, as is the guitar wizardry of cuts like "Stranglehold." Songs like "Savage Dancer," "High Heels in Motion" and the LP's title track are pale and tedious shadows of a once glorious hard-rocking past.-Jim Neibaur DANCING ON THE EDGE by Roy Buchanan (Alligator) Blues guitarist Roy Buchanan is on par with Johnny THE FAR SIDE Winter among all white bluesmen. On his latest LP, Buchanan exhibits more versatility by presenting stirring originals like "Pedal to the Metal" and such diverse covers as Aretha Franklin's "Baby Baby Baby," Willie Dixon's "You Can't Judge a book by Its Cover," and even Henry Mancini's "Peter Gunn Theme." By versatility, Buchanan is also demonstrating the resiliance of blues music. "Dancing on the Edge" is well worth picking up in lieu of virtually anything presently lurking in the Top Forty.-Jim Neibaur THE QUEEN IS DEAD by The Smiths (Warner Bros.) The Smiths have found a home in American musisc with the release of their new album. Revealing the true talent of the four young musicians from England, "The Queen Is By GARY LARSON Dead" has earned them a number one position on the college album chart and as high as number sixteen on the national. "The Queen Is Dead" is a blend of smooth, mello songs as well as many cutting numbers which contain beating drums and fine guitar work to add to their flavor. Such songs like "Cemetry Gates" and "There is a Light That Never Goes Out" add to the gripping character, while "I Know It's Over" and "Never Had No One Ever" soothe the listener's ear. Morrissey, the lead vocalist and writer, uses some literary references and focuses on life and love throughout the album's lyrics. His vocals are distinct and clear, even though some of his messagesmay be difficult to understand. Taken as a whole, "The Queen Is Dead", is an excellent album and an open door for further appreciation of The Smiths' brand of music.— Andrew Tschumper LANDING ON WATER by Neil Young (Geffen) "Landing on Water" suffers from the same fate its title implies: Young wades on sloshy ground as he tries to contemporize his sound with today's synthetic, sterile trappings. Cuts like "People on the Street" and "Weight of the World," with their empty, galumphing guitar backbeats, are passionless. Others, like "Hippie Dream," are lyrically unintelligible, making it hard to believe that this is the same Neil Young responsible for such insightful work as "Needle and the Damage Done" and "Ohio. "-Gary Schneeberger THE BRIDGE by Billy Joel (Columbia) Joel's taken a bad rap from the serious rock circuit for his bubblegum bad boy persona, and "The Bridge" won't erase that stigma. A harmless set, Joel's latest is a mite too cloying for those whose tastes run a touch more refined. "Modern Woman," for instance, relies more on the singer's cut phrasing than it does on meaty riffs or a distinctive beat. The rest of the tracks ar& of the same vein, each detailing an aspect of man-woman conflict without breaking new ground. Only "Baby Grand," a bluesy duet with a showstealing Ray Charles, is likely to satiate all appetites.-Gary Schneeberger ACROSS 1 Looks sullen 6 Redolence 11 Individual 12 Oriental salutation 14 Similar 15 Goddess of discord 17 Unit of Italian currency 18 Pigpen 20 Period of time 23 Plunge 24 Bridge term 26 Leash 28 Mr. Hirt 29 Weird 31 Locate 33 Small valley 35 Swiss canton N r» SP be 53 ft 8 GR U, I <n 36 Appalls 39 Locations 42 Exists 43 Newspaper paragraphs 45 Simple 46 Priest's vestment 48 Draw out 50 Maxim 51 Country of Asia 53 Quarry 55 Selenium symbol 56 Moved sinuously 59 Created a disturbance 61 Excavate 62 Small heating devices DOWN 1 Pounding instrument 2 Owner's risk: abbr. 3 Exploit 4 Ripped 5 Cuts 6 Steamship: abbr. 7 Mother 8 Cloth measure 9 Deposited 10 Lasso 11 Out of date 13 Shade tree 16 Drunkards 19 Playing areas 21 Baby's bed 22 Detests 25 City in Florida 27 Jewish feast 30 Raise the spirit of 32 Poker stakes 34 Ogled 36 Faces of - clocks 37 Land surrounded by water 38 Complacent 40 Wipes out 41 Stitched 44 Frighten 47 Wild hog 49 Send forth 52 Snow runner 54 Vast age 57 Spanish article 58 Deciliter: abbr. 60 Tantalum symbol u a T3 © CO '5 14 Thursday, September 4, 1988 RANGER Ranger staff Staff from page 2 who is also president of the Parkside Association of Communicators, a Campus Ambassador and a member of the tennis team.

Distributed by May Beverages, Inc. 3120 64th St. -16 Thursday, September 4,1986 Dannehl Parkside athletics outlook discussed by director by Robb Luehr Sports Editor For Parkside sports, it's just business as usual, according to Athletic Director Wayne Dannehl. "We're pretty much the same as we were," said Dannehl. "We have no new coaches or sports, but we're excited about the dorms. That's about the only thing that's happened. "We're hoping we will get a little more spirit around this place and more excitement at the athletic events as well as other events now that we have some dorms." Dannehl said there will be promotions similar to last year's. "We're running a dynamite season pass deal for men's basketball," he said. "It's only five dollars, plus there will be the chance to win a couple thousand dollars tin prizes." The half-court shot will be back, along with raffle promotions during volleyball * wrestling, men's and women's basketball and soccer. As far as the teams themselves, Dannehl promises excitement. "Our volleyball team is really, really quite Wayne Dannehl good. They would have been in the national tournament the last couple of years, but to do that, they had to beat UW-Milwaukee, and they didn't." (Milwaukee has been to the NAIA national tournament four years in a row.) "I'm looking forward to an excellent cross-country season," he said. "The women were fifth in the nation last year and everybody's back. The men should be in the top ten. And soccer is right there. If they can beat Sangamon State, they should go to nationals." Academics have always been a big part of athletics at Parkside, and last year was no exception. Parkside athletes compiled a 2.6 grade point average for the year. Of those student-athletes, 30 percent had a B average or above, and only 10 percent became ineligible due to a low GPA or too few credits earned. "We have some absolutely outstanding students and some that aren't doing so well," Dannehl said. "It pretty well followed the normal curve. Overall, the kids have been doing a good job in school and we're hoping it will continue." In comparison to the NCAA, which just instituted a minimum 2.0 GPA for entering freshmen athletes, the NAIA has always had high academic standards, according to Dannehl. "A lot of people don't understand that. The NAIA has always had higher eligibility rules and transfer rules and they still do." Considering the size and relative obscurity of Parkside, how does the athletic department continue to bring in quality student athletes? Dannehl gives the credit to his coaching staff. "Our coaches do an excellent job of convincing kids to come here and that's the name of the game. In fact, over the years, we (the athletic department) are the only ones who have actually ever brought students in here from the outside. We've done that by simply convincing them that this is the place to be. So in a recruiting sense, we're the only people who have ever recruited anybody here, and in some ways, we've been criticized for that. "Well, now I think the campus is changing their perspective. They figure if this campus is ever going to be something more than a commuter campus, they have to have something more than people from Racine and Kenosha Counties." A big concern within the last year has been drug involvement by college athletes. The University of Wisconsin implemented a drug testing plan as part of a Big 10 plan. At the present time, there is no similar plan in the Wisconsin system, according to Dannehl. "I think the whole drug thing has been blown out of proportion. People who happen to be on an athletic team represent the culture as a whole and they're no different than anybody else. Some of them take drugs and some don't, and if we have a culture which is involved in drug use, the athletes live in that culture. They get a lot of attention like in the Bias case. "I have no way of judging, but I would guess that if you take the population of Parkside as a whole and all the people who use drugs, if there are athletes involved, the number who do will reflect the entire population. "That's why pro athletes resist mandatory testing. For example, playing soccer is just a game - it's not a situation where you need somebody to save a life. Maybe we should be doing mandatory tests on doctors, ambulance drivers, lawyers, faculty members, all those kinds of things. So it's difficult to justify singling out a bunch of kids when you're talking about society as a whole." Tennis Women set for season Classified ads nt by Sherri Liaiecld The third year head coach of the women's tennis team, Wendy Miller has a positive outlook for this season, which began on August 25. The team consists only of four girls so far. Senior Kim Kranich, junior Amy Tropin and freshmen Laurie Henry and Beth Spalla. Miller is pleased with the progress of the team. She sees much improvement in the returning players and feels that the incoming freshmen have a lot of potential. "The girls work hard and put in lots of time and energy, but the main thing is to have fun." A big concern facing the team this year is the lack of players. As far as recruiting, Miller knows there are players out there, "We just have to get a hold of them. The biggest thing is more bodies." So looking ahead means a lot of hard work and dedicaiton from team members. When asked what the competition looked like this year, Miller stated, "It's tough. There are no easy opponents; all the schools have good teams." The first meet is Saturday. Sept. 6 at 9 in the Carthage Quadrangular in Kenosha.

Malfunctions concern many elevator users , by S11zaDDeMantliano Recent reported Incidents of elevator malfuncUoning on campus have inconvenienced students to the point of hav- Ing to miss class and have proven expensive to repair. On Oct. 8, at approximately 4: 30 p.rn., campus police reo celved a telephone call from a person stuck in an elevator. It took the maintenance work- ers approximately 15 minutes to rescue the vicUrn from the elevator. This Incident Is just the first of eight elevator fan. ures to be reported to the campus police. On Oct. 13 Wayne L: Duke, a handicapped student, was rescued from the Greenquist elevator. Duke also mention- ed that he has been stuck In the elevator six Urnes this semester. He was forced to miss class each time because of the elevator fanures. "Out of the 13 elevators on campus some do fall more than others." said John Kreg- er. facUlties engineer. •'The elevators don't fall more fre- quently than most." There are many types of maintenance work performed on all of the elevators to try and prevent failures. There Is a maintenance program to help prevent any breakdowns within the elevators and each year the elevators are also in. spected by the state. "The esUrnated cost Is $12,000 a year for one hour a month of prevenUve mainte- -nance," said Jack DUdley, dl- rector of facilities manage- ment. "We spent $3,000 last year on cables alone." When the elevators break down, repairmen must be called In to fix them. Actual repair Urne takes anywhere from one to three hours of manual labor. Untn a repair person can come, an out of order sign is placed on the malfunctioning elevator. •'Normally, I would expect a repairman by noon the: 'next day.

Is the umbrella I:roup and governing body for all clubs and organizations on campus," said Serpe. "It guarantees that all clubs have a policy that allows every student to join that club. " . Based on the university flow chart, there are curt-en- tly four organizations on earn- pus that have ~major status: Parkside ActlvlUes Board (PAB), PSGA, Ranger and Peer Support Organization (PSOl. "Major group status is gen- erally granted to. student groups which provide pro- grams and/or services to the entire student body and do not have an academic ?epart. mental focus or a speclaltzed- /human interest at the core of their existence," according to the Student Organizations Handbook. Serpe feels that SOC meets the above criteria. SOC is dif- ferent from other organlz~i tlons In its category Inditha\lY receives funding rec. from Segregated UniverSIty HI think we deserve the respect major status would give us. Now time for SOC." Fees Allocations Committee (SUFAC). Other organiza- tlons receive their funding from SOC. According to Serpe, grant- Ing SOC major status would have advantages to both stu- dents who belong to SOC and .for students whose clubs are represented by SOC, "1 think that going major status will help increase the sense of pride for those stu- dents in SOC," said Serpe. The biggest advantage for those students whose clubs are represented would be in the area of budgets. Under the current constituUon, five percent of a club's budget Is docked when a representative fans to attend an SOC meet- ing. Also under the current constitution, approval trme for reallocaUon of club funds takes anyewhere form six to eight weeks. "Theoretically, under the new constitution," said Serpe, "approval for reallocation of funds could take as little as two weeks and penalizing clubs for missing meetings would be done away with." Serpe Is confident that un- like 1984 when SOC appealed for major status and failed, this year the appeal will be granted. However, Adrian Serrano, PSGA president, won't take a stand either way. "To me It's like letting a child go because they've been under the protective wing of PSGA and now they're ap- pealing to move out of the house. If the senate deems that they're grown up enough, we're going to let them go." "1 think we (SOC) deserve the respect that major status would bring us. There isn't an administrative area on cam- pus that hasn't at one time or another In the last year come to me specifically or SOC generally asking us to be a part of something, " said Serpe. "Parkslde is on the brink of major student involvement," said Serpe, "and any chance we can take to make people feel better about themselves in terms of Involvement, now Is the Urne to do It. Now Is the Urne for Soc to become major status." t ThU=. November 6, 1986 ~ SOC deserves major status The Student Organl2ation CouncU (SOC) ts the body which ovenees the activities of aU clubs and organtza- t!orUI active at Parkslde. t Pia d past its duties were limited at bes . gue In years tent •leadership and a somewhat hazy state- by ~~ rpoae the councll was not very effective In ~ruI::.,r and ~tlng students In a concerted errort to lpur extra.currtcular involvement. For this reason, its campus-wide status was equaUy restricted. . Recently, however, SOC has evolved into a more orga:~ lied more active more representative body. Buoyed Y ~ leadership 'and a renewed sense of mtsston, it has :"cceeded where Its predecessers have not: It has fulfilled Ita status as the umbrella organl2ation which channels new Ideas and new members to the clubs it represents, sponsoring recruitment fairs and meetings to sllmulate atudent Interest and commitment. • One thing that has remained the same. despite SOC s aolldlJled role In the university community. Is Its status. Presentiy just a subcommittee of the Parkslde Student Government Aaaoclation (PSGA). SOC Is llmlted In Its ac- uvtues by the restrictions such an arrangement dictates. Not only muat It operate out of an already cramped office. It must also submit Its meeting minutes to the PSGA Sen- ate for approval. although many senators have little Idea what goes on within the organl2ation. We beUeve Urne to be of the essence in SOC's being granted new status as a major, autonomous organization. The strides toward growth It has made over the last two years demand that It now be freed to pursue further grow- th and Innovation. Ita accompUshments to this point are commendable. Even more good could be done for Parkslde If SOC were granted Its next logical step forward.

Who are the handicapped/disabled and dJ.tterenUy abled? How many such penons are there here? What are their needs? What 18available for them? The College. too. could use some serious consciousness raising on this Issue. To begin with. there Is no listing for handicapped. or disabled services In the College cata- logue.

A decision by members of the· Student Organizations Council (SOC) to not attend a 'series of workshops In Madl. son last weekend has generat- ed some controversy in stu- dent activities circles. At issue, according to Jenny carr. Student Govern. ment Association senator who was pari of PSGA's delega- tlon to the same conference, Is not non-attendance; In- stead. It Is SOC's decision not to return home. "I think that If they did not want to go to the conference they should have returned home," Carr explained. "By remaining, they. In essence - had a vacation weekend paid for by Parkslde stu- dents. tI The seminar, entitled "Grass Roots Organizing Workshops" (GROW) was held Nov. 7-9 at UW-Madl. son's Student Union building. SOC and PAB members' en- trance to the workshop ses- stons, In addition to hotel ac- comodations and meal provi- sions, were paid for through student-acquired funds. The total amount approprr- ated to SOC's nine-member delegation was $680. ~hot.o by Leo Bose Bill Serpe, SOC chair, ad· mltted that he and the major- Ity of his delegation did not attend. He indicated, how. ever, that there was warrant- ed reason. "Those who didn't attend did so because after attending pari of It they reaJ1zed the workshop was not what they expected It to be," Serpe ex- plained. "We had hoped It would be more focused on clubs and organizations In terms of leadership, retention and recruitment. IIIn my opinion," he con- tinued, "It turned out to be more of an activist workshop. It seemed to me to be the kind of thing that taught people how to take over an administration building." Serpe'a senUnments were echoed by Marie Aiello, one of the students who attended only the Friday evening ses- sion, bypassing the Saturday and Sunday offerings. "What they were doing was teaching us how to be radi- cals," Aiello said. "It was a misleading workshop, and I find It really ridiculous that the school would even pay for something of this nature." Jeff Dreher, the only mem- ber of SOC's delegation to at. tend the entire weekend's ac- tivities, disagreed. "I got a lot out of what was presented," he said. "I think the workshop offered Infor. matlon valuable to all student leaders, and those who didn't attend lost an opportunity to learn something." With regard to the decision not to return to Parkslde after most of the SOC party had written the workshop off as "militant and activlst," Serpe recognizes the decision as his own. f'The decision was mine, and the reason I decided not to get everyone back here Saturday morning was that I was going to put together a separate workshop for people who didn't want to attend the other one," he said. "The truth of the matter is that It never occured to me to bring everyone back," he added, "because I personally believed that I had the lead- ership ability to take these students through an artema- tlve workshop. Unfortunately, because of the dissension I got from other student lead- ers, I.. was unable to accom- plish that. "Rather than them saying 'What can we do to alleviate this situation,' "Serpe con- tinued in reference to other leaders, "they either argued SOC see page 6 System's stance on future, funds debated at hearing in Madison are other alternatives than them to devise a co-op Iearn- GPR support per student (I.e. by Gary L.

What PSGA has com- pU d t 19 students nothing substantive about the quality of tUh r tnatrcctor or instruction; instead. it assigns a nu- mencal ~'gradeU to a classroom experience. often basing itilifinaJ score" on fewer than ten collected surveys. Th1s problem. we believe. stems from the nature of the questions that were asked of students. It is inconceivable that a !urvey can attain accurate evaluations when it uk. individual. with no experience In assigning grades to do ju.t thaI. To our mind. the "GPAS" contained In PS· C '. SAFE avajuatforrs are merely arbitrary numbers w1lh no accompanying meaning. They do not. in any way. "assist students t.n objective instructor/course selection." The Ranger has always supported students being gran- ted access to the divisional evaluation forms. and the sta- tus of the SAFE program reemphasizes our conviction in that neceasity. Those surveys ask students to determine faculty merit on a relative scale ("compared to other tn- .tructors you've had at Parkslde ....,:). using evaluation tools famillar to them. It haS always seemed more than a little ironic that evaluations completed by students about the quality of their education _ and upon which crucial decisions about faculty personnel matters are made - be kept confiden- llal.

SAFE survey can Improve To the Editor: The Parkside Student Gov- ernment Association (PSGA) is proud to annouce that the Spring 1986 Student FacuJly Evaluallons (SAFE) are ready to be distributed. The intention of SAFE is to help students make choices in their class selection. We see the fact that many students drop classes as a waste of students' money. This is only the second SAFE we have complete and it is much improved. How- ever. we know it can be im- proved further. Anyone that is interested in helping us im- prove SAFE is welcome to stop by the PSGA office and inform us of their interest. What we would really like to see happen is the depart- mental evaluallons that are already done. released as public information. compiled and printed Into a newspaper format like the course sch<d. ules. These evaluations have probably gone through yean of improvements and are very fair judgements of pro fessor's ablllty. Adrian Se1'l'8llO.

Parkside is one of three universities in the country to sponsor such an event. In the model OAS, Parkslde students acted as mentors to the high school students by helping them get started In researching their countries, lending moral support and showing them where mate. rials are In the library. Gerald Greenfield, director of the international studies program explained, .'The OAS In Washington runs a high school program that Is now entering Its fourth year, so we're only one year behind their national program." He continued, "We devel- oped the model we use be· ,cause, although it follows a general simulation, the pre- paratory stage Is very differ. ent from ours. In most of the models, they send out infor. mation and -rely on a teacher and the students to get It aJI down. We developed ours in the way that It dtdn't require teachers to do any exira work...we were able to do that by developing materials ourselves here...the second thing Is that a Parkslde stu. dent serves as mentor to the high school teams so we had twelve Parkslde students working with the project this year." According to ChrIs Kemper, mentor to Panama, Peru and Mexico, "The OAS has been going since the tum of the century with the idea of Pan- Americanism, that North America and South America are Inter- related and working to solve problems." The actual OAS has thirty- three members and has na- tions that act as observers, such as canada and some European nallons. Parkslde's OAS admitted Cuba. which Is not a member of the Wash- Ington OAS, In order to offer Parkstde's pallcipants a greater learning experience. The high school students were Instructed by their men- tors to act as if they were ae- , tuaJIy clllzens of the countries they represented. They could not think as If they were from the United States, but had to take acllon that would be con- alstent with their countries. As Kay Rouse, mentor to Brazil stated. "What I dtd with my group was tell them that from the minute I snapped my finger, they wer- en't students from Racine, Wisconsin anymore. They be- came Brazlllans and they had to think like BrazUlans.' , Nadene Ellis, who served as mentor to Nicaragua and Paraguay and actuaJIy ltved in Paraguay for one year. ex- ptsJned that there were four· committees plus the general committee and one person from each country met with each committee. resolutions were passed and later brought to the general assem- bly, where they were either passed or rejected. Greenfield explained that there were also a few faculty members who sat in on the committees and some awards were given.

"The recom- mendations we're giving the Board will allow everyone to use the facility, allow those with the right to drink the chance to drink and will also hopefully alleviate the possi- bility that the university will be sued for failing to enforce the law." The proposed changes in- clude the elimination of mul- tiple alcohol purchases, in- cluding the renewed prohlbl- tion of pitchers of beer and carafes of wine, which had been eliminated In 1984 but reinstated last spring. "The ra- tionale for this, according to Schneeberger, Is to minimize the opportunity for legal drinkers to purchase alcohol for those not yet of-age. "A hike In the drinking age isn't very effective if you have one guy who's doing all the buying for a lableful of minors,' I Schneeberger said.

"!hose penalties, for legal drinkers purchasing alcohol for underage patrons, would include, in the first instance, the immediate confiscation of all alcohol belonging to the in- volved parties. Repeated of- fenses could bring possible administrative disciplinary action or the involvement of campus police. "Sure, they're stiff sanc- tions," commented Schneeb- erger, "but that should make sure those who've broken the rules In the past won't do it again. If I knew my wine cooler would get dumped if someone sitting with me bought alcohol for a minor, or that 1 might be referred to the Student Life office for doing the same thing myself, 1'd make sure no minors I knew would be drinking In the Union. "With the university so po- tentially open to litigation," he continued, "we have to make sure people who shouldn't be dirnking aren't drinking."

"Conditional admission," continued Cashen, "is a brand new status and what the university is doing is to try to implement a program that will help these students." Cashen's letter to spring conditional students stated, "You must meet with your advisor to select appropriate courses for your first semes- ter at UW-Parkside...

"The faculty member has a right to ensure that the aver- age person on the street doesn't get any look Into that person's personnel file," Peck explained. "If these forms were to be generally releas- ed, the next argument would be, "Okay, now the public has a right to look at any part of an instructor's personnel fHe." "And in that case," she continued, "I think you're really opening up a Pandora's Box." The issue of student acces- sibility to teacher evaluation forms was raised anew dur- Ing last week's SUFAC budgeting sessions. Adrian Serrano, Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA) president. requested additional segregated fee funds to hire a director of SAFE. the Student Acquired Faculty Evaluation program run by PSGA.

Students have right to see evaluations As students. we agree that teacher evaluation forms should not be released to "the average person on the street." However, as students we also take offense to being lumped Into that "average person" category. Since the information we provide on divisional evahra- Uon forms Is used In determining faculty pay Increases and tenure, It Is not only logical, but necessary, that we be granted access to the evaluatory results those forms generate. As the group most affected by an instructor's ability or Inability to teach, we deserve useful information regardlng that ability, especially It we provide that Infor- matton ourselves. Faculty and admlnlstration claim that if students are given access to these evaluations. it would be akin to the universIty advertising each student's transcript in the media. What they overlook in drawing such specious con- clusions Is that we pay for the Instruction we receive here. and therefore are entitled to know its effectiveness. The general public does not pay to know our grades, and thus there's no reason they should be granted access to them. It has also been suggested that the Parkslde Student Government Association (PSGA) work to further develop Ita Student Acquired Faculty Evaluation (SAFE) pro- gram, 80 that students have information about instructors at their disposal. Our Viewpoint, and Indeed the viewpoint of Chancellor Sheila Kapian, as she expressed in a recent interview with a Ranger reporter, Is that "It there's no good reason why the divisional forms are not released to students, it doesn't make sense to use two forms." At this point, students are still waltlng for the ad. ministration to devise a "good reason" for withholding tho8e forms. VnW such justification is presented, we owe it to our- .elves to tight voraciously for access to teacher evalua- tion forms. In an era when decisions regarding issues like tuition hikes are taken further and further from our hands. it could be one of the last areas in which we can control the direction of our college education. Nobody'askedme,~ Feminism a means to an end outside the range of approprt- ate female behavior. I didn't personally know other women who had gone through the same experiences and feelings with whom I could talk. It wasn't until one year ago, when I was talking with one of my friends, that I was exposed and introduced to a whole way of looking at the world in terms of women's thoughts and experiences. This way, much to my sur- prise, is feminism. I had known this friend for a few months when, during one of our conversations, she labeled herself a feminist. Right then I was forced to r-edefine what I thought a feminist was. I originally thought a femi- nist was an angry woman who went too far with this equal rights thing and hated men and maybe even was a lesbian. My definition was very narrow, and only includ- ed some of the characteristics of some feminists. Where I got such a denntuon, I may never know. When I finally forgave myself for having such a nar- row definition, I went a year of talking wilJl reading about women men who are feminists. (Ta I learned that men~ feminists.

Hence, it was a huge surprise for me to be denied a job stocking shelves because the owner of the store felt that that type of work was not ap- propriate for females. The job incident, along with being labeled a tomboy most of my pre- adolescent years, clearly and early pointed out to me the bias people have about what is appropriate female and male behavior. I always felt that such nar- row stereotypes were wrong, and I felt stifled and a misfit because I wasn't allowed to do what I did without havtng It pointed out to me that I was .acting outside of ap- proprtate female behavior.

Administration responds to Chrysler closing Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document • byKelly McKissick News Editor The announced closing on Wednesday,Jan. 27 of the Chryslerauto plant In Keno- shameans more than the loss ofsome 5,500 jobs for auto workers. For campus students, It means additional stress, fi· nancial need and, unfortu- natelyfor some, the end of highereducation. The Chrysler Corporation will he closing auto assembly operations in a city which has been bUilding cars for 85 years. When Chrysler bought theformer American Motors plantlast summer, the plan was to keep the plant open for at least five years: The plan' obviouslydid not work out for Chrysleror the plant. Chancellor Sheila Kaplan reaUzesthat many faculty, staff and students have spousesor parents that will belosingjobs. Kaplansaid that a series of programsneed to be Installed to sid those faculty, staff and studentswhose lives wlll be affectedby the closing. She saidshe Is planning to have an all-University town meet- ing next week at which the University of WiscOnSin-ParkSlde -, implications of the plant clo- o sure will be discussed. "We want to talk about the cycles that the city could ex. pect to go through; and we want to talk about stress issues that the people will be facing because in truth the studies that have taken place on the subject talk about plant closure and the. re- sponse to it being the same as grieving for the death of a loved one," Kaplan said. She explained that the Unl- versity will be offering a se- ries of workshops on stress management for those on campus affected by the shut. down. .'This university has offered stress management workshops before, but these will be designed specifically for our own people I ., she said. Kaplan also addressed the potential for. financial prob- lems among students. "We want to be able to provide ap- propriate financial aid coun- seling to students. It may mean helping them re-write and re-negotiate their aid package or whatever we can do to stretch out the pay- ments So that in as humane a way as we can, help students over the immediate crisis of the financial crunch." Bylaw change nearly dissolves United Council ~A~ministration responds ~ I • by Amy H.

In prac- ace, quorum would never be ~hIeved because, according ttlPSGAPresident Alex Pet- e.; "Attendance at United no;mcu meetings is usually o( ntoear60 voting members a tal 92possible /lOW." The Change that was ~d, and later recanted, cd for schools with popu- ...... lations of 0-2,000, five dele- gates; 2,001-4,000, six; 4,000· 10,ooo,seven; 10,001-20,000. eight; 20,001-35,000,nine; and 35,000 pius, twelve. UW-Cen· ters with populations of 0- 1,000 are permitted one dele- gate; 1,001-2,000, two; and 2,000pius, three. Pettit, leader of the Park- side delegation, brought to the attention of other student leaders the 1lkellhood that quorum would never again be reached. Pettit cornered lead- ers of the Madison and Mil· waukee delegations before they were abie to leave the General Assembly meeting, taking with them t,!e votes needed to nullify the change. The members returned to the meeting, and further ac- tion negated the change in the by-laws. Members agreed to meet at a iater date. I'The very existence of the organization was at stake," Pettit said . to- Chrysler closing Sheila Kaplan She stated that she wanted to offer other workshops through the University, such as a series for teachers in the public schools to heip address the emotional probiems that grades K-12 will face, and a series for local smail busi- nesses on surviving the conse- quences of the closure. Kaplan said that she hopes the programs will be Imple- mented within February. Last Saturday John Collins, Kenosha county executive, called a meeting to assign task 'forces to aid in probiems from the plant closing. Ka• plan will be serving on the education and job training force with Chairman John Burkholtz, head of Kenosha Gateway Technical College and Greg Campbell, president of Carthage College. "Then we talk about a larger role for Parkside, in responding to the community and the large number of peo- ple not directly related to the institution who will be laid off and those from local bust- nesses that support the plant," she said. "It's very Important that we coordinate our efforts closely with Local 72 (United Auto Workers Union in Keno. sha) because it makes no sense for us to put programs in place to help the dispiaced workers if council 72 is not supportive of It." Kaplan said the majority of the respqnsibtltty for retrain- ing of the production workers would be at Gateway Techrn- cal College because they "are organized and have the staff and equipment to provide short-term occupational train. ing." She said that Parkslde could play a role with the "significant number" of workers who have taken classes at the University al- ready. "We would want to help them organize their aca- demic plan and see if they would like to come back to finish a college degree." She. said that Col1lns asked the task force to work with the white-collar managerial post- tons that will also be elimi- nated to see What types of services could be offered. Kaplan stated that Park. 'stde is also planning to hold a symposium in early March on plant closings and their Impli- cations. Profes or Lou Fer. man, who Is a nationally known expert on' the Issues of plant closing, wlll speak at the symposium. "We will be inviting all the appropriate people in the community to learn and listen," she said. It may be possible, Kaplan said, that Ferman and his team of researchers will be asked to stay in Kenosha for a few days to do some consulting with the city. Kaplan commented, "I think what's Important here is that we all cooperate, do what we do best and put to. gether a package that meets the needs of different kinds 01. people." UC fears Parkside pullout by Amy H. Ritter News Editor The arrival of the Parkslde delegates to. Friday and sat- urday's United Council (UC) meeting at UW-PlattevlUe was reportedly a surprise, amidst rumors that Parkside was pulling out of UC, PSGA President Alex Pettit said he arrived at Friday night's Presidents Committee meeting to the amazement of UC president Adrian Serrano, and relief of presidents of several other UW schools. Student government presi- dents Harold Annen, UW-Mil· waukee, Frank McKinney, UW.Whitewater, and Rob McGinnis, UW·Madison, ush- ered Pettit into the hall upon his late arrival to Friday's Presidents Committee meet- ing, expressing surprise at his appearance. Pettit said they told him Serrano had been depicting Pettit as an unstable leader and reporting that Parkslde was planning" to withdraw from UC. "We have had problems in "From his reaction, he was awfully surprised to see me. He was not thrilled, but I don't know If was pleased or not." - Alex Pettit the past," Pettit said, "but that comes with the territory. If I was pleased with every- thing UC was doing, I'd prob- ably be running it myself." In a late interview, Serrano said that rumors travel fast in politics and in the student politics, 'and he did hear that Parkslde was considering pulling' out, but he was pleased that Parkslde showed up. "From his reaction, he was awfully surprised to see me," Pettit said. llHe was not thrilled, but I don't know It he was pleased or not. It'" hard to say. He was certalnly shocked.

Now is not the time to give up on education Parkslde shared In the blow from Chrysler Corporation last week when the automobile manufacturer decided to shut the Kenosha plant. As the only state-supported rour- year learning institution In the area, we feel the eftecta of that decision in obvious and less obvious ways. Naturally, students and administration are concerned about the loss of potential growth of the student body due to the loss of jobs In this area. It Is difficult for students to afford to pay tuition when the chief breadwinner Is unem- ployed. An even greater concern is the way this news is affect· ing the current students and staff at Parkside. The tmpor- . lant thing to remember Is that panIc will not solve the- problems this factory closing has created. The admlnlstratlon at Parkslde has taken a strong In- terest In helping studnets and staff deal with the addltton- al stress brought about by this news. The financial aids people know that times are going to get tougher for some or our students, but they are ready to assist students In readdressing their needs. If students on this campus have enrolled In a university to lmprove U1.eirchances in the job market, the events of the last week should Wustrate how really vital a college educaUon tiks become. This is not the time to ron away from higher education. Take advantage of the support oftered by Parkslde's stu- dents and administration. Realize that the pull-out repre- sents change. not the end. Don't give up on yourselves. Don't give up on Parkslde. Stay In school. .. Iyour views Wheelchairarticle draws heat from "normal" student by BiU Serpe I feel compelled to corn- ment upon Mr. Rick Luehr's "Nobody Asked Me But" col- umn In the Jan. 28, 1988 Issue of the Ranger: his nspoofy" attack on "The great thinkers who devised these plans to keep the disabled out of Park- side and staying home where they belong." Mr. Loehr, don't flatter yourself by lhInk1ng all of this was done just for yOU. We "normer people, tf as you call anyone not In a wheelchair, have our own set of problems with exacUy the aame Issues as yours, which don't allow us any time to IntenUonaIly be "lrtpplng you up." (Oh...was that a pun?) Those parking spaces for the handicapped, that you are certain were filled with extra snow just for you, have be- come quite a burden for all of us. Consider. if you will, how it feels to come to Parkside at night to use the library, duro ing sub-zero weather. and you have parked in the nearest space you can to the sidewalk Into the building. You will have to scale the berm In the middle of the lot, climbing over two plies of frozen, jagged; ploughed snow, alIpplng and sliding up and/or down the berm Itself, (since those "great thinkers" decided not to put passage ways In the middle of the lot where they are needed by normal people,) or you have walked around either end of the berm-sa considerable dis. tance in sub-zero weather. As you approach that gap between parking lot and Inner Loop Road, you see empty all of the handicapped parking spaces, save one, and you would be willing to bet your entire National Direct Student Loan that none of those spaces would get used that night. Many a swear word has been issued at that spot. Please remember, Mr. Luehr, we .'normal people" wlll stlll have to deal with this issue when the snow is gone and a thunderstorm is happenIng. You should also know, Mr. Luehr, that the ramps that are cut Into curbings to make It possible. for wheel chaired people to get to where they want to go, are exceedingly treacherous to we •'normal people." They ice over in a most unusual and camou- fiaged fashion, causing many a book-laden person a nasty fall. Now, about those elevators. Did you know, Mr. Luehr, that ~ome •'normal people" have disabWtles that aren't necessarily repairable with a wheelchair or crutches? The person who said "walking up those three flights of stairs Is good for you," obviously did not have asthma, arthritis or a bad heart. Again, Mr. Luehr, you over- estimate your own Impor- tance. "Out of Order" eleva- tors are a problem for many people. Remember, lfstuff" happens. That human roadblock In the Molinaro concourse, that gets set up just before you ar- rive there,; many a time I have seen you, in your wheel- chair, stopped In that very same place, deeply engrossed In the problems of the world, cartng Darry a whit whose path you were blocking, only enjoying the comraderle that makes that barrtcade of hu- manIty between classes, an- other remarkable facet of the Parkslde community. These people don't have time to intentionally block your path, Mr. Luehr. They're much too busy trying to determine the best place on campus to dispense con- doms. Mr. Luehr, look sround you. Life's a bitch, and !hat Is that. What you don't resllze about we "normal people" Is that, yes, there are probably lots of times when wheelcha!· rites do Impede our course, (and you probably have seen our angry faces). However, we try, very hard, to make your life easter, for you,!lln no other way than to relraltt from writing an annual letter the the editor or "NObodY Asked Me But" column sbOU t how miserable wheelchair people are making our lives.

Peer sup~rt hopes to create a co-op child care service among the non- traditional students. The or· ganlzatlon will present, with eight other .UW_system schools. a second state con· ference for non_traditional students on campus on March 20-21. . h I It also offers a $100 sc oar· ship each semester because, as Landreman stated. "There are very few scholarships avalJable to help the older student." One possible reason Lan- dreman finds for the ouster rumor is that fact that Peer Support had some problems with Its budget after a review at the last SegregaWd Unlver· sity Fees Allocation Commit- tee (SUFAC) meeting. She said she asked for help with the organization's budget from Jenny price, former as· slstant to the assistant cha,n- cellar in chUge of student af· fairs. to "I gave It (the budget) Jenny with the underslanding that if there was any question at all, she would come back to me." r.andreman said. One portion of the budget dealt with the requisition of a sal· ary increase for a secretary to $4 per hour. Landreman sald the budget was eventual· Iy handed to SUFAC with,;,:"t . any contact from Price. U there were any discrepancies or things that didn't add up, It was a surprise," she cern- mented. Another problem concerned SUFAC's request for Peer Support to produce head counts, a total of the number of students in the organlza· tlon. Landreman said. "The recent emphasis on head counts and organized social events disturbs me. Peer Sup- port Is a unique organization attempting to address a myr· lad of challenges in a chang· gbl.ul~g~' Peer Support says major status deserved Ing educational ment.

By definition, conditional students are those who: 1) do not have the appropriate spread of high school wtIts: 2) did not rank In the top half of their graduating class: or 3) have lransferred to Parkslde with at least 15 credits and a cumulative grade point average of less than 2.0. Plainly put, conditional students are those whose prior academic records have indicated that they may have dIff1culties at Parkslde. To ensure that students classified as conditional maxi. mtee their educational oporlWl!ty, the wtIverslty has de. vised a progresstve, responsible program. EqUal parts ad. vtsIng and monitoring, the program Is designed to help students successfully meet the demands of higher educa- tion, alloWIng for frequent consultation between students and counselors. . So what's the problem? It seems that In Implementing the new procedures, some counselors and adm1n1strators ..... "d paths and contused students about what the pro- gram's requirements are. WhIle we certainly sympathize with those students who may have been misled, we none' theless believe more energy should be spent lauding the wtIversity for establishing such a worthwhile program than criticizing cerlaln people for sending contradictory letters. Irour views Mini-car complaint was indeed justified '1'0""_. ThIs letter Is In response to the letter "MInl-Car Parkers Tread On Others," (Jan. 22, 1987). Last December I wrote a letter to express my feelings about the mini-car parking lots and "maxi cars" parking In them. I thought I had a Ie- gltlmate beef. But. obviously Mr. Steve Weber thought dif- ferently. So I did a lltue bit of background work and dtacov, ered I stili have a legitimate gripe. FIrst, the Union Parking lot was built and In use before the Union BUilding was. When It (the parking lot) was first used there was equal distance between the mini and maxi car parking and Molinaro Ball. Secondly, the maxi car parking In the Oommunlea- tlon ArIa parking lot Is closer to the building than the mini car parking lot. So, the people with large cars are at the ad. vantage there. Since the parking design was established before the Union was built, the blame cannot be passed to those of us who choose to buy econ- omy sized cars. It is not our fault. If people want large cars then they should park In spaces that are designed for them. As it Is now there Is not even enough room for all the mini cars to park In the mini lots. Why, then, add to the sit. uation? Walter Hermann Gary l. Schneeberger Editor Klmbertie Kranich ··••••••••••••..•••..••••••....•. News Editor kelly McKissick •••· Asst.

Fundamental journalistic and grammatical errors abounded throughout the artt- cleo These errors. combined with poor sentence structure and inane assumptions. re- suited In what I believe to be quite an embarrassing edt- torlal article. A few examples of the errors include: 1) "Cocaine. Euphoric; Se. ductlve. Additive (?l..." Additive it may well be, but I don't believe that's what the author intended. 2) "Miami Vice" and "Scar- face" should obviously be In quotes or Italicized. which. ever form the newspaper chooses, to Indicate the title of a television series and a movie, respectively. 3) "Two men were bludg. eoned, stabbed and burned, one alive, In the middle of the .night, In a gas station, al- legedly because of $11,000 worth of cocaine." Hrnm, let's see if we can stick a few more clauses in that sentence next time. 4) "One thing Is clear. (pe- riod?) Four human lives have been destroyed." Later on the author writes of "the loss of two lives." One thing Is clear, the author. shows an utter lack of consistency. 5) "Priding Itself as a . recreational pasttime, co- caine ..." Say _what?! Is the author really trying to sug- gest that cocaine is capable of "priding Ilself IS a tional pasttlme?" 6) "Rich man's 1lBjI...,l" "blow," "coke ll and ' candy" should all be quotes, Indlcsting usage. 7) "If not phyalcal ration, then bankruptcy, and the fatal words, • man, galla waste ya.' •• man, that'. not evena tence.
