The Ranger reserves the right to edit all letters. The In Box Editor Kregg Jacoby I have a little good news and a little bad. The plans for color have been pushed back one issue because funding has come up short. It's very dis­couraging that a newspaper that is trying so hard to be a true student forum is constantly assaulted with lack of f unds, lack of interest and a real lack of a ny genuine sense of community. The community I refer to is that of the student organizations here at Parkside. More than anything else, they should represent the backbone of a strong Parkside community. Classes may come and go, but it is the groups that keep students motivat­ed to work towards a common goal and to stick around the campus to part of something bigger than themselves. And these groups need to work together. Being unified would give each group a bigger base of people to count on and help cut costs. To all the students who are not a member of a group, don't think this doesn't effect you. Take a look at the PSGA story on page 5. All student fees are being increased by $58 per year to pay for some huge increase in a few groups budgets. How are these groups help­ing you? If y ou're not a member are you just throwing your money away? I'm not claiming the increases were not warranted, but the student body needs to police these groups to make sure the money is not being wasted. On the lighter side, I'm pleased to announce the very first Stranger of the semester. It's gleefully juvenile, wondrously witty and an all-around strange experience. If you like what you see or have any other ideas, drop us a message at the office in Wyllie D-139C, call 595-2287 or email jacob020@uwp.edu. Any groups or departments that have info they want covered drop us a story or story idea. Talk with the Ranger and we'll make sure it gets out to the student body.

Need help filing Nobody likes to think about filing income tax forms. Well, if you have a gross adjusted income of $20k a year or less, or you plan to file a federal "EZ" form, help is availabie-and it's free. Intuit, the folks who struck it rich with "Quicken" and "TurboTax," is offering income tax filing services free to low-income taxpayers that file electronically. The company's Quicken Tax Freedom Project is donating web-based income tax prepara­tion and electronic tax filing services. Here's how it works. Using a simple interview method, the Web TurboTax program asks for relevant information and auto­matically calculates and files the tax return. The service covers preparation and filing for both federal and state returns. All major forms and schedules - 1040EZ, 1040A, even the love­ly and talented form 1040 - will be supported. Eligibility is deter­mined by your actual tax information when entered into the Web TurboTax program. The services will be available from Jan. 14 to Oct. 16,2000. Access the Tax Freedom Project at www.quicken.com/free­dom or www.dor.state.wi.us, the state Revenue Department web site. Follow the on-screen interview to enter your tax data and complete your return. You can do this over one or several ses­sions. Then e-file or print your return. If you're filing electronically, you must print the e-file signa­ture form and keep it until you receive your IRS or state acknowledgement/Check the status of your return, 24 to 48 hours after e-filing, by calling (520) 901-3271 or by entering your social security number into a status page on Quicken's Web site. Once accepted, you must enter information onto the paper signa­ture form and follow the program instructions for mailing the form to the revenue agency. If rejected, follow the on-screen instructions to correct and re-file. Intuit uses Secure Socket Layer encryption technology to ensure privacy during preparation and transmission. News Briefs Point... Click... Scholarship With a growing number of Internet companies that give away cash and prizes to consumers just for browsing their Web sites a new site launched this month promises to award $10,000 a day in college scholarship money. Marketers and advertisers fund the scholarships m exchange for rece.vmg valuable consumer information on the lucrative crop of students m their teens addition to the daily prize, Free Scholarships.com plans to award $25,000 each month and $50,000 each quarter. The site will send the check directly to a school college, bank, or educational lending program to help pay for private school, college, or graduate school. College graduates may use the money to pay off th eir student loans, and parents may apply their winnings toward future col­lege bills. Winners must be U.S. citizens over age 13. Some education officials are warning Internet consumers of possible scams. Others are concerned about the implications of using sweepstakes to award scholarships. "You don't need to be a sweepstakes winner to afford college," Mark Cannon, deputy executive director of t he National Association for College Admission Counseling, told the Associated Press. Arts: Alive! series presents Peking Acrobats I UW-Parkside presents The Peking Acrobats on Tuesday, March 7, at 7:30 p.m. in the Comm. Arts Theatre. Part of the University's Arts: ALIVE! series, Joanne Yantis calls The Acrobats the series' family performance. "A number of people I've talked to said they plan to bring their children or grand children to this program," Yantis said. "This is the sort of performance families-and students-can share and then talk about for a long time." The Peking Acrobats is a 26-member troupe of gymnasts, jugglers, contortion­ists, and tumblers that has left audiences worldwide spellbound with their grace and athletic ability. From high wire walkers, to balancing acts performed on a precarious stack of chairs, to a contortionist holding dozens of glasses while perched on the fingertips of one hand, to precision tumbling, The Peking Acrobats is a non-stop, thrill-packed experience. The LA Times said "The Peking Acrobats regularly passed from the seemingly impossible to the virtually unbelievable." Come and be amazed when Arts: ALIVE! present The Peking Acrobats. Tickets are $12.50 for this one-night only performance. For more information, call ext. 2345. Aid t o Study Aboard In the recently passed 1999/2000 State budget, the Wisconsin legislature has appropriated funds to support study aboard opportunities for students who are eligible for financial aid. The University of Wisconsin-Parkside has been allocated several $2,000 grants to assist students wishing to study abroad. Students planning to apply for one of the grants must have their financial aid eligibility certified by the Financial Aid Office (WYLL D191; ext. 2577) and must apply to participate in a study abroad program. Applications for financial aid are due to the Center for International Studies Office by March 20, 2000. Applications should include certification of financial air eligibility and confirmation of participation in, or application to a study abroad program. Applications will be reviewed by the Center for International Studies, and awards will be announced by March 27,2000. This is an exceptional opportunity to take part in a unique learning experi­ence, particularly since academic credit earned through study abroad can be transferred to UW-Parkside. For further information about study abroad pro­grams and financial aid for study abroad, students are encouraged to contact the Center for International Studies (MOLN 367, ext. 2701) as soon as possible.

Abbott grant suppons science education, diversitv UW-Parkside recently received an $18,000 grant from the Abbott Laborato ri es Fund to help support science education programs and diversity initiatives at the school. Through internship and scholarship programs, as weU as a travelling education program, the grant will help current and future UW-Parksidc students gain access to quality Science education and prepare fur mt,aningf ut p•• Liup•Lion in a diverse workforce. "We have a shared stake in improving the educational life of our region and we are proud to partner with one of our region's leading scientific innovator," said UW -Parkside Vice Chancellor and Provoot John Ostheimer. A portion of the grant will be used to establish an annual minority internship in the Office of Equity and Diversity, which will focus o n the recruitment, rete n- tion, and development of minority students and faculty as part of UW-Parkside 's Plan 2008 for diversity . The Abbott Laboratories gran t will also subsidize scholar - ships for the Minority Pre-College Program, which provides college l earn ing experiences to area students from grades 6 - 12, and support the continued deliv - ery of the UW-Parkside Great White Wave Machine to local elementary schools. The UW-Parkside Great White Wave Machine demonstrates to fourth and filth grade students that science is fun. About 4,000 students each year learn that waves don't just happen on Lake Michigan. And while they learn about waves through the use of a dozen interactive science exhibits, the students also learn the underlying concepts of science. "Abbott Laboratories is c::omm.itted to supporting initiatives that provide v.l lu- able educational opportunities for minority students and help to prepare our future workforce," said Cindy Schwab, vice president of the Abbott Laboratories Fund. United Council launches Site Students Can Reach UC at www.uni tedc ouncil.net Madison-United Council, Wisconsin's statewide student association, is proud to launch its new website at www.unitedcouncil.net. The site will provide stu- dents with information about legislative, academic, multicultural, and women's issues, and contains links to many valuable places for students.

This will give s tu dents the opportunity to access our resources more efficiently and allow inter• ested people to obtain current information abo ut United Council," said Michelle Diggles, President of Un ited Council. Th~ United Council of UW S~d~ts is the nation's oldes~ largest and most effective statewide students assooation, representing over 140,000 students at 24 UW campuses.

How many of you are sitting there thinking that the semester is half over and you have yet to begin. The work continues to pile up, and time continues to slide by. Welcome to my nightmare. In homage to the 2.5 students that are caught or even ahead of the game here are my suggestions for the end of the semester. 1. Get off work for the Main Event. The plans are starting to corne togeth- er, and it sounds like a real sucess. Check next issue for a full update. 3 2. If you are a senior planning on graduating this spring or next December then get your graduation summary. This will help you make plans for what you need to accomplish . 3. Talk to your professors. Overall, these are nice people who want you to succeed. If you are behind, they may be able to help you. 4. Don't get all stressed out. Sometimes a break can help you focus. So, take advantage of the rec center and athletic facility. You do pay for them. 5. Join a club, organization or other worth cause. Don't waste all your time partying. Not only will you be doing something worthwhile, you will meet new friends and have fun. Plus, it looks great on school admissions and resumes. While your looking for a group, consider the Ranger News. There are openings for Editor, Business Manager, Assitant Editor, Reporters, Office Assistants and more. The Ranger can provide a forum for your work, and a chance to show the school what's important. Each staff has full editori- al control and the opportunity to do what you can't right now. Be your own boss and make all the decisions. ,.golng Evenls • Foreign Film Series: "The Thief," Russia W /subtitles, Apr. 6-9, Union Cinema Theater, 7:30p.m. Thurs./Fri., 8 p.m. Sat., 2 p.m. Sun.

Zac emailed me that he enjoyed The Stranger and had a few story suggestions. ~'m~ot ~at sure zac isn't just a figmentof my unagmation, but if he's real that could put our readership up to 6. Second, this is the last 16 page Ranger and the last issue of the Stranger for the semester. We will be putting out a small 8 page paper next week to finish of the semester events. The Stranger broke into some of the serious sections this week so I can't guarantee that he won't show up next week. I'll write a little more next week with my thoughts on Parkside and my time with the Ranger. Until then, enjoy the lssue.

Final Exams Final Exams Final Exams When someone retires, and they've been at a job for several years, it's cus- tomary that someone will say some- thing like, "Joe's been here so long, they built the building around him." For several of the faculty and staff who were honored on Tuesday, May 2, many of the buildings on the UW- Parkside campus were built around them. People like Associate Professor of Geography Curtis Richards and Geology Professor and Department Chair James Shea have served UW- Parkside and its students for 33 years. That's as long as the University has been in existence. Others like Professor and Department Chair of Economics Richard Keehn, Associate Professor of English Peter Martin, Assistant Director I Control1er James Marks, Professor of GeOgraphy Chelvadurai Manogaran, Senior Assistaut to the Dean Alma Renish, Professor of Spanish Constantin Stathatos, and William Misamore of Computer Service have helped nearly two gen- this HpellotoallPar h ksidestudents, faculty,and others.

UW-Parkside Chancellor Jack Keating expects each of them to remain busy despite having plenty of free time. "Retirement will be an opportuni- ty for them to explore, to research, to spend the time they never had before pursuing their passions and asking questions," said Keating. lilt is the beginning of the future and that is always a good reason to celebrate." Keating then spoke for the University family as well as students past and present when he wished each of the retirees a long, safe, and healthy retirement, success in their professional and personal endeavors, and a request that they return to carn- pus often. f .. ~ '" * ~ Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

SAC Expansion Ready for Student Use Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document SACExpansion Readv lor Student Use Afternearly two years of tom up landscapes, showers featuring cold and cold running water (sorry,no hot water in the build- ing today; this week!; this month!!), and dodging mud streams after rainstorms, UW- Parkside students are finally enjoyingthe benefits of the Sports and Activity Center (SAC)expan- sion. The new fieldhouse, class- rooms, dance studio, and fitness facilities-financed in part with student fees-are now open. The formalgrand opening takes place Friday,Sept. 29. The expansion is expected to easethe crunch for space experi- enced in the original SAC.

The dent sports, packing in camps, formal opening is September 29. tournaments, and special events, then shoehorning in fitness and community activities, the SAC was practically bursting at the seams. "Thisis a very active facility, espe- cially in the winter months," said UW-Parkside Athletic Director Lenny Klaver. "Thebuilding was in use from 5:30 in the morning until after midnight, closeto 1a.m. some- times. We had runners coming in during the morning, classes throughout the day, winter sports practices during the day and evening, intramural sports in the evening. For example, baseball and softball practice times were usually at 9 or 9:30at night. So the schedule is packed." Built For Students Although UW-Parkside athletic teams will benefit from the expan- sion, the primary focus of the new Petretti Fieldhouse will be individ- ual students. An inside look at the Perretti Fieldhouse "The building was built with stu- dents in mind-not how well our track teams run in there or how much space we're going to have for basketball or volleyball camps," Klaver stated. "It's for students; to expand their recreational opportuni- ties. Wewant to keep people on cam- JUS, gIve them more activities, and create a better balance between a healthy lifestyle, studying, and fun activities that are part of the college experience. " To help students build that healthy 'ifestyle, the Petretti Fieldhouse fea- tures 70,000 square feet of open recreation space. There isa 200meter walking /running track, and plenty of courts for basketball, volleyball, tennis, and other activities.

Foul Weather Fouls Residents' Monday Night by Brenda Dunham Lightning struck close to home the rainy night of Monday, Sept 11. How close? One report said a bolt touched down in the University Apartments volleyball courts, Just 25 feet from the buildings. According to resident Paul Nault, "The surges set off fire alarms in buildings two and four." Hollie Carpenter, building two resident assistant (RA), said all of the RAs were assembled in the core building for their weekly staff meeting. "The coni building alarm goes off whenever any building alarm goes off.. We followed procedure by findmg out which buildings had alarms going off, clearmg out the people in tliose buildings, and giving the 'okay' to go back in," she said, "The police are automatically dispatched. They figure out if they need to call the fire department and then go around to help reset the alarms." Carpenter said the lightning and rain made for an eventful birthday. "That's a birthday I won't forget. I got so wet, my pants are still drying two days later," She recalled. Carpenter, along with the rest of the RAs, was out in the storm from 9:30 to 10 p.m. The residents were outside as well. "Most of them crowded under the eaves or went into their cars," said Carpenter Eventually everyone got to go back to what they we~e doing, but Hollie said if there's anext time, "All residents should evacuate the building and as soon as we know everything is okay then we will let everyone back into the buildings." 2.

Meet UW-' enrollment guru Alan Crist by Julie Thompson In an effort to increase enrollment and improve retention rates, the University of Wisconsin-Parkside created the new position of assistant vice-chancellor for Enrollment Management and then hired Alan Crist to fill it. Crist started at UWParkside in July after spending ten years at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) as associate vice chancellor and executive director for Enrollment Services. When asked why he came to Kenosha, Crist explained, "What really helped me make the decision to come to UWParkside is the vision Chancellor Keating has for the University; looking at the University as an engaged University and connecting with the community is something that means a lot to me in terms of where I think the University needs to be. Also looking at the other aspects of building a strong and quality diverse student population." Crist plans to use the strategies that worked at IUPUI here, tailoring them to meet the needs of UW-Parkside, in order to become more student AI Christ vice chancellor, Enrollment Management focused. His job includes looking at ways to help students get off to a good start by pulling together acade mic and student support services in order to eliminate barriers students sometimes face. To achieve this goal, he said he will be, "Bringing together the offices of admissions, financial aid, registrar, advising, and student academic support services, as well as working with other offices." He also will look at ways to decrease the obstacles that make it difficult for non-traditional students to return to school. His aim is to increase diversity atUW-Parkside at all levels. Crist believes building a strong sense of conununity between students, faculty, and staff is important for UW-Parkside. "The faculty and staff play an important role in both the recruitment as well as retention of students. Follow-up from a faculty member with a student who IS interested in a specific program can reall;, make a difference in that student s understanding in what is here. It is the faculty wfio spend the most time with the students,"he said. He added that he wants to "make Police Beat Visitor pulled out in front of an emrloy Investi~tion revealed damage inconsis ee who wastraveling in the traffic aisle, tent wi being struck by a car.

That might raise the specter of sports' least favorite four-letter word: jinx. Jinx or no, the men's squad beat Rockhurst on Saturday, Sept. 9, by a score of 2-0. They carne back the next day and beat Truman State-the fourth ranked team in the nation-on Sunday, Sept. 10, by a score of 2-0. That gave the Rangers a perfect 5-0 record for the year. And during those five garnes, Peer and his teammates have not surrendered a goal. Not one! The team's composite score is 16 for and 0 against.

Cleo Ensterling, Adam DeFord, and Rebecca WilliamsBrawner are the new fall senators, and Chelsea Crane is the new spring senator. . As a senator, each has to serve on both a PSGA committee and a university committee. They get to choose the comnuttees they wish to serve on a firstcome, first-served basis. According to PSGA President JDe Rucker, the main campus issues discussed at the meeting and that need to be resolved are the price and quality of food, the price of making copies, and problems WIth parking. The senate is considering discounted rates to be given to those students who park at the Tallent Hall lot. The other problems have yet to be resolved. Many students and faculty are upset WIth the closmg of the cafeteria at 5 p.m. everyday. Under this proposal, no one can sit in the cafeteria to visit' with friends, study, or enjoy a quick snack. It 15 now strictly used as a dining room for those students who have a RangerCard on hand. Students who live on campus or faculty who stay at school after hours are especially affected by this new rule.

Bridge" set --.---.---.--~ 3.Harris'·magic creates " The first stage. of building a set st~rts ':'lith an artists concept, Keith crew then beg onto shape the set, onthis case a house in New York. Anyone who has attended a play at UW-Parkside in the last 16 years has witnessed some of the uruque and complex set designs Keith Harris has created. Harris is currently working on the Drama Department's fall production of Arthur Miller's" A View From the Bridge." Keith attended the University of Kansas, where he earned an M.F.A. in Scenic Design. He intended to go into acting, but changed his major to design scenery several years into college. He has worked here at UW-Parkside for the past 16 years, usually designing two to three; sets of scenery a school year for each Drama Department show. Harris and his Drawing up the plans for a set is not something that Can be done m a few days. Depending on the project, it takes from four to five months to draw up plans. After reading over the script numerous times, researching the play, and talking with the directors and his staff, Harris goes to the drawing board. For this current play, "A View From the Bridge," he started talking about ideas with the directors at the end of last semester. He designed it around early July, and started building it about two weeks before this semester began. The set should be completed by midOctober. The play will run the last two weekends of October. Many of the materials used in building a set are not used as the manufacturer intended. For instance, Keith has used basics like plywood and paneling materials, along with Styrofoam insulation and bug sprayers for painting. When working on a set, he finds good uses for things people normally wouldn't think of as materials used on stage. Keith receives help from some of the cast members, stage crew, and from people who have nothing to do with the Dramatic Arts Department. So students taking classes for college credit, are eligible to work on productions. Between his duties here and his family, Harris doesn't have a lot of time to work on scenery outside of the University. Although he has done repertory work and set painting in the past for The Fireside Dinner Theater in Ft.Atkinson, he hasn't done any movies or Broadway shows. However, some of his former students have. It is his hope that more of his students succeed to that level. "Keith has been our rock, He's creative, timely, a fine designer and an indispensable member of our team," said Dramatic Arts Professor Skelly Warren. "He's the link which holds our department together. He's been a colleague and friend for 18 years, and I couldn't picture this department without him and his dedication. 'A ViewFrom the Bridge' is just another outstanding design from a person who puts only his best forward. He and his work are irreplaceable. His work always pulls out the best in others as well."

For incoming freshman, and even for those who are returning to UWParkside, it is always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the rules and regulations on campus to optimize your personal safety. Freshman entering the university straight out of high school should especially take notice of the university's policies on drinking and drug use. No drinking under the age of 21 is tolerated anywhere on campus, and anyone serving, or buying alcohol for minors is legally liable as well. All women on campus should be aware that date rape drugs are known to be circulating around southeastern Wisconsin and may already be on this campus. Always keep a close -eye on anything you are consuming, and don't accept anything that you are not sure of. Schlecht strongly reiterates, "Students have to partake in the responsibility of their own safety." The Parkside police are more than happy to assist students with any questions or concerns they may have at any time. If you are in need of immediate assistance on campus call 2911.Even if you are unable to speak, the officerscan tell where the call is coming from. Additionally, call boxes are located in parking lots. Otherwise, all non-emergencies situation can referred to 595- 2455. Officers are available to the students and staff 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A great way to learn more about the Chapter 18 policies on campus, fines, and other services offered by the police is to go to their web site at www.uwp.edu/admin/university.poli ceo It's very informative and well worth the look. Students can also drop in anytime at Tallent hall to pick up helpful brochures about social issues such as domestic violence, drinking, etc. Officer Schlecht wants students with questions to call" even when they don't think that we'll have the answers. If we can't answer something then we will do our best to find someone who will." SAC Effects on Community By Zach Robertson As many UW-Parkside students know the new Sports & Activity Center (SAc) ?ffers many experiences not available in the past. What many do not know is w~~ UW-Parkside will use the new facilityto open Its doors to the community UW-Parkslde plans to make the facility .available to the public by selling facility use memberships and by makmg the facility available for rentals. Rentals at the SAC include the fieldhouse, meeting rooms, and the pool. According to Athletic Director Dr. Lenny Klaver the community has already shown quite a bit of interest. Rentals have already been put into place for bridal shows, volleyball tournaments, use of the pool, and preliminary possibilities for the Kenosha Expo. The number of facility use memberships has also increased because of the new Wellness Center and weight room. W,th all of the activity in the SAC some students wonder if this will interfere with their use of the facility. "The new facility was designed and will be operated for students first," said Dr. Klaver. Much has been said about the increase in membership fees. "The reason we need to charge for memberships is that we have an obligation to support 20% of the operating costs of the buildin~", said Klaver, By making the facility available through rentals and memberships the University will be able to support the increased operating costs of the new $12.3 million building. Dr. Klaver said a committee worked on pricing for the rental and membership prices by doing research with other Universities to come up with the fee structure. UW-Parkside also plans on advertising the new facility to prospective renters and members through the use of newspaper ads and articles, as well as mailers. By advertising the SAC more people will be exposed to the universities programs and its students. "The oniy drawback I can possibly see is that demand might be so heavy that we are going to have to limit the number of people who can join the facility. But again with the facility being primarily for student use that's were the emphasis should be," Klaver said.

Health care meeting at uw-, As part of its Engaged University effort, UW-Parkside was the site of a Community Health Care Initiatives meeting Sept. 20. The program, jointly sponsored by the United Auto Workers (UAW) and DaimlerChrysler, took placein the Com Arts Theatre. Both the UAW and DaimlerChrysler haveexpressedconcern about the qualit,Y and cost effectiveness of the region s healthcare delivery system. To address theseconcerns, the union and company invitedcommunity members and businesses,health care professionals, hospitals to attend. They are asking these groups to work with them to assure high quality health care services and improve the quality of life throughout southeastern Wisconsin. To gauge the region's health care environment and delivery system, the Lewin Group, a company specializing in health care consultation, will survey the local health care market and compare it to other cities. From the resultmg data, problems will be identified, action groups will be formed, and their suggestions will then be rolled out to the community. DaimlerChrysler's Gerry Wade said this is the seventh initiative his company and the UAW have made since 1994. Survey result are expected to be available in six months. GerryWade, DiamlerChrysler, announces a survey of 10c~1health care delivery s.ystemsduring a program held at UW Parkside.

Jamie Freeman President Protem pore Shana Hopkins Public Relations Director Kara Norton Diversity Director A Commitment to Diversit, by Gino Ciardo The University of Wisconsin-Parkside beat out 27 state agencies and UW campuses to earn the first Annual Diversity Award. The Department of Employment Relations and the Council on Affirmative Action cited UWParkside for achievement in "recruitment, planning and diversity hiring." Herbert Pitts, assistant to the chancellor of Equity and Diversity asserts, "None of this would have been done without the cooperation of the provost, the chancellor, the deans, the chairs of the departments, the directors and the managers here. Achieving diversity goals IS a delicate ballet, and if you do not conduct the dance properly with the other individuals who are your dance partners, you will achieve nothing. All the things we accomplish, we accomplish as a UW-Parkside team." According to UW-Parkside's letter of application, 12.9% of the university's work force (full- and part-time) were minorities as of October 1999. Between June 1999 and May 2000, 40 minority employees were hired constituting 21.97% of all hires in that time frame. At the same time, UW-Parkside reported 17% of the student body were minorities as of August 2000. "It was a situation where we were increasing our enrollment of minority students, but our work force was not reflecting that increase or the demographics that are taking place in the surrounding area," Pitts comments. In order to increase the number of minorities employed at UW-Parkside, several steps were taken to make the university available to more applicants. UW-Parkside placed ads in ethnic and minority publications, s.ent out bulk mailing shells introducing the school and announcing job opportunities,' advertised vacancies on national career websites and collected business cards at career expos. Pitts explains, "In a tight employment market you have to become more creative. Our big push this year is going to be campus climate. Wecannot continue recruiting people if we cannot keep people. We have to retain people'Iromote people, tenure people, an in order to do that we have to make sure that the atmosphere here is conducive to people of diverse backgrounds." He added, "If we are educated to think that the world consists only of people who look like us, then we are being educated to fail. It is impossible to get a good education without beinl7 exposed to the diversity of the world. Diversity hiring is also Goal 5 of the UW-Parkside Plan 2008, which concentrates on combining diversity and the curriculum in order to improve the learning environment. The award will be presented on October 12 at the Pyle Center in Madison. r Police Beat 09/15/00 Incident #00-687: Fire Alarm, Greenquist Hall, 12:59 a.m., officers responding to an alarm found no smoke or fire, Alarm was reset and officers cleared.

America's place in it. Axtell, a Kenosha native, has been on ABC's "Good Morning America", NBC's "Today Show," and several CNN news programs. New Yorker described him as "an international Emily Post." At the luncheon, he humorously covered some of the highlights from his latest book in The Do's and Taboos series, which outline proper behavior, gestures and body language rrotocol for business people who trave abroad. Axtell points out that people traveling to foreign countries need to become aware of others' cultural customs. This is in-order to prevent unintentionally insulting those that they wish to do serious business with. "It's a big world out there. We as Americans have two problems that lead to miscommunication. The first is that our culture is deal focused 'time is money' ... much of the rest of the world is relationship focused. They want to get to know you, trust you. The second problem is that we are ethnocentric. We think that the world goes right down through the United States, and the world revolves around us.We do things without realizing it, and. our awareness needs to be sha;'per." Things like firm handshakes, looking someone in the eyes, or using a first name are construed as rude and disturbing behavior in other countries. One comedic example of how cultures are different that Axtell likes to tell is the story about hygiene, which he points out, is perceived differently all of over the world. He tells us, "As Americans we like to think that we rank very high when it comes to hygiene ... but I was in a country one time where they spit a lot. Very common, spit in the streets, spit in their offices, even blew their noses out that way [with no tissue]. "We say, 'That's repulsive, that's terrible, spreading all those germs around'. But,not to them, [they see this as1 very hygtemc because they are nddin!? the body of a bodily waste. Th7 said to me, 'Well what do you do? I said, 'Well for goodness sake, I carry a hanker-chief .. , I blow my nose carefully like this.' They asked, 'Then what?' I said 'Well, then I put it back in my pocket.' They said 'You mean you carry it around with you all day long!?'" Many students from Parkside will one day travel abroad for work, or will have to work with foreign business people on American soil. Either way, students should begin to prepare them- . selves for the challenges of communicating successfully in the new global village of tomorrow. "Wehave to get to know and appreciate other people," says Axtell. The best way to do this is to t~ke advantage of the rambow of activities that Parkside is always offering for free or a minimal fee. Not all learning takes place in a lecture hall, and luncheons like this one are a fine example of a fun way for students to enhance their global communication skills.

Many people have discovered that public dialo/?Ue about race is an important step in combating problems of prejudice associated with race. Study Circles call for a dialogue about race that help everyday people examine racism and race relations and work together to make progress on these issues. Thegroup provides an opportunity for people to get to know one another, listen to different experiences and points of view, delve into disagreements, and discover common ground. The group looks at social issues and discusses ways to take action to chan~e these issues. Roseann Mason, who introduced this nationwide program to Parkside stated, "It's important for people to know that we're not just discussing problems. We actually move from diafogue, to action, to change." With thousands of pearle working together devising practical actions and strategies to promote change, a positive world may be in our future. Mason also pointed out that students get a chance to connect with people they don't normally connect with through study circles. Last year, a !\"oup worked with homeless people inRacine, breaking through the lines of classism and working together to solve an on-going problem. Mason likes t? describe study circles as the oppostte of hate groups, "We are peace groups promoting peace." Study Circles are not limited to only student participation, all faculty and staff-are encouraged to be involved in the dialogues. Study Circles consist of small groups of only 8 to 12 participants. At tile last meeting there were four professors among those in the dialogue. Community members are also involved as the study circles prepare for their Community Kickoffs. StUdy Circle kick· off Sunday Oct. 1, 4 to 6 p.m., Union Dining Room. All students are urged to attend. Last February, over 100 community members drove in blizzard-like weather conditions to join the Kickoff. This year, the group invites students and area residents to their kick-off program this Sunday, Oct. 1. The prgram will be held in the Union Dining Room from 4 to 6 p.m. They leave on the weekend of October 20-22 for their retreat in Madison. There are two meeting times for those who are interested: Mondays 7-9 .p.m. in Moln 111and Tuesdays 8-10 p.m. in Ranger Ha}l47.

Foreign Film Review The Parkside Foreign Film Series started on September 14. The series, which will last till April 29, will show 14 of the best international movies around. For people-who missed the first and get to the Union Cinema for this one: PHRPA (THE CUP) (Oct. 5-8) The Cup, the first feature length film ever to be made in Bhutan, is delightfully innocent. Inspired by true events, The Cup is the story of an Indian monastery housing children with assorted international roots. Awaiting the two new arrivals to the monastery is Orygen, a self-confident and adventurous 14- year-old monk. Orygen has his own little near-religious cuIt that is celebrating its holiest of events which onIy occurs once every four years: The World Cup of soccer. Soon the children find themselves in a bind when they are caught sneaking out to watch part of the tournament one night and are threatened with expulsion should they ever do so again. But the crafty Orygen wouldn't let the approaching final match pass by without his audience, and soon a surprisingly innocent plot is hatched. (Bhutan 2(00) Director: Corrante. 93 min. ' Here are some excerpts from a review of "The Cup" written by James Berardinelli: "In addition to being charming and uplifting, 'The Cup' possesses an undeniable sense of verisimilitude, and many of the j'erformances are so unaffected tha tit s difficult to believe the men giving them aren't professional actors. 'The Cup' is sure to be a crowd-pleaser," If Iwere you, Iwould buy a season ticket right now, because the films are a very ruce getaway from Hollywood and the like.

Information Technology Practice Center open for business By Sarah Olsen UW-Parkside opened a new laboratory on Thursday, Sept. 28, that will give students an advantage over undergraduates from many other universities. The Information Technology Practice Center (ITPC) gives students hands-on experience with current technology and employment possibilities with some of the nation's top Fortune 500 companies. The ITPC began with the vision of a former UW-Parkside student, Cory Mason, who is now the ClO (the highest position in MIS) for Harley Davidson. Mason teamed up with Snap-On Tools, SC Johnson Professional (a division of Johnson Wax), the former dean, and faculty members within the Business programs to turn his vision into a reality. Information technology is a profession that is less than 20 years old and has an unusually high demand for skilled, qualified graduates in Management Information Systems (MIS) and computer science. "Information technology involves the computers, the hardware, the software, and the telecommunication networking infrastructure that supports a business. In its simplest form, information technology is built by computer science and MIS uses the technology to solve a business problem" said Dirk Baldwin, associate professor of MIS. The benefits of the ITPC are multifaceted: first, the students learn how to solve business problems through technology, the faculty keeps up-to-date See ITPC, Page 6 Ins ide 3 Welcome to Beijing Professors Wang and Olsen lead local teachers on a month-long exploration of China. 4 Take a walk in the PARC,find help Need help with a subject, any subject?

UW-Parkside librarv can be more than just books By Gina Ciardo The UW-Parkside library can be used for more than just research, quiet studying, and, as some students would prefer, napping. The Friends on the UWParkside Library offers students a variety of interesting activities this semester. Tonight, students can listen to a lecture given by Richard Thieme titled "Technology and justice." Thieme is the 35th recipient of the Gameliel Chair in Peace and justice from UWMilwaukee. In addition, he is a graduate of Northwestern University and the University of Chicago where he earned a degree in English Literature. On Thursday Oct. 12, the library will host the BadWater Book Invitational. Artists from all over the United States have submitted their works for this exhibition. Max Yela, the Special Collections Librarian at the UW-Milwaukee Golda Meir Library will be speaking. The artist's books are currently on display in glass cases just inside the entrance to the library. From Nov. 15 through 17, the Friends of the Library will hold its annual book sale (9-5 Wednesday and Thursday, 9-12 Friday). Books will range in price from $1 to $1.50. The money goes to the Friends of the UWP prols. lead China lour By julie Thompson While some of us were busy working or relaxing on the beach this past summer, UW-Parkside professors Dwayne Olsen and George (Xun) Wang, along with teachers from Kenosha, Racine and Burlington, four of whom are UWParkside alumni, went on a month-long study tour of China in july. When reflecting on the purpose of the trip, Professor Olsen said, "The purpose was to have them write curriculum dealing with China. Our idea was that as a result of this experience [teachers] would write a more accurate curriculum and they would interpret China more accurately to their students as opposed to presenting distortions or stereotypes." Although the trip mainly served area school districts, UW-Parkside students will benefit as well. "My students that I'm teaching to be teachers of social studies, benefit from my having had this experience, and being able to talk more authoritatively about another culture, and culture is a major concept in social studies. Hopefully, 1 will do a better job in preparing these people as social studies teachers, so they will go beyond themselves, so they will see the diversity that they have within their own classrooms." Besides benefiting UW-Parkside and other area students, the trip reflects nicely on the University. The group was featured in newspapers in Racine and Kenosha, and interviewed tluee times by WGTD. However, their presence didn't go unnoticed in China, as they had the honor of being featured in two newspaper articles and one television news report. Professor Wang stated, "We met UW-Parkside Professor George Wang, second from right, meets with Chinese education officials including Chief of the Education Department, Jiang Zhou, left, and Jiang Zhelin, sister of the Chinese President Jiang Zemln, second from left. Library. In past years, the organziation has purchased things like the book drop outside the library. This year, the board is funding the soon-to-be Friends Reading Room which for the moment is the sectioned area behind the atlases on the library's main floor. Comfortable sofas will be arriving at the end of Oct. and the room will be fully functional for the spring semester. Students will be invited to bring in snacks and relax. . Dina Kaye, an academic librarian and the library liaison to the Friends of the Library Board comments, "We get a lot of community people not only on the board, but also who come to these. [events]. It would be great to see a lot more students and campus people." Other activities include a lecture given by Professor Dan Taylor from Lawrence University titled "The Olympic Games, 776 BC to AD 2000," a debate about the presidential election on Nov. 2, and a lecture titled "Making of the Medieval Illuminated Manuscript" given by Professor Michael Orr, Ph.D. of Lawrence University, on Nov. 30. .

A highlight of the trip was when the group was able to meet the sister of President jiang Zemin while visiting Shimin International School. Additionally, Professor Wang received e-mail from members 01 Parkside administration. "They all praised our work, our project, they thought it was a great project to enhance the image of UWParkside." The trip was made possible due to the joint effort of Professor Olsen and Professor Wang. Together they prepared the proposal for the Fulbright-Hughes grant, but securing the grant isn't as easy as one would imagine. "This is a national competition," Professor Wang said. "This is not just money you can grab without any effort; this is a collective effort by us. Every school has the opportunity, not only universities, but non-profit organizations, high schools and middle schools can also apply for the grant." Now Professors Wang and Olsen are looking for at least one or maybe more students who can teach conversational English. Professor Wang said, "It doesn't have to be an English major, just someone who is willing to teach English as a second language for five months in China." Those who are interested should contact Professor Wang in the Sociology Department at 595-2180, or Professor Dwayne Olsen in the Teacher Education Department at 595·2177. Student Voices . This week's question: Are you going to Kristin Ovef Yes. I think everyone should vote because not enough people do, and every opinion counts. A Walll·in the PARC By Sheree Homer Did you fail the last test in history and are now afraid of failing the course? There is no need to fear, as there is help. Tutoring is available free to all UWP students. According to the Parkside Academic Resource Center (PARC), tutoring is similar to supplemental instruction as it is used as a guide and aid to the classroom. Every year, alumni donate money to PARe. PARC is located in Wyllie Hall D180 near the bookstore. Students can receive help at any level with any academic problem that they might have. Last semester, Claudia Calel Easterling I have to vote because it's my opinion. As far as my choice is concerned, I have to. It's a must. Villalba received help in writing for English and received a better grade for it. She went from a B to an A. Another student, Karen Malonee has been to PARC on numerous occasions. She received help in both writing and theatre makeup. Writing help allowed her to organize her thoughts more clearly, while the help received in theatre makeup got her a better grade. She went from a C+ to a B+. Writing·and math help is provided on a walk-in basis. Specialized areas, such as biology or French are made by appointment. Students should come well prepared to PARC and ready to explain their problems. This way the tutors will know how best to help. The normal tutoring session is 50 to 60 minutes. vote? Rachael Carlson I'm not much into politics, but I probably will end up voting because it's important that you give your . opinion. If you don't vote, your opinion won't be heard. Each student is allowed a maximum of two hours per week, unless other arrangements have been made with the PARC coordinator, [aci HaleyRenaud. Tutors are used as a guide to help the students understand their problem, but they are not there to do the work for them. They also do not determine the grade the student receives. Students have the responsibility of attending classes, taking good notes, and attempting to do the homework as well as studying in order to do well on tests. Attendance is mandatory at the tutorials, unless there is an emergency. Ifthis occurs, students should then call 595-2044 a couple hours before their appointment so the tutor SAAC getting. involved with students, community By Zach Robertson Many of the students and faculty at UW-Parkside have no idea what the Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC)is or what the organization does. But this year the SAAC hoping to change all of that. SAAC is a group of student-athletes who have been selected by their coach and the Athletic Director Dr. Lenny Klaver to represent their teams at weekly meetings. SAAC has two main duties: one is to be a voice for the student-athletes and the other is to implement service projects that involve the community and students at UW-Parkside. Student-athletes can bring any problems they might be having with coaches or players. They can also express any opinions they have on facility operations or other matters. Some of the community projects the SAAC will take on this year include a Thanksgiving food drive, a inter-athlete carnival, and fund raising efforts for a UW-Parkside student-athlete awards banquet. "One of our service projects at this point is the can food drive," said SAAC President Brian Coffman. "What we are going to do is have people be able to use can foods as a way of admission into UWParkside athletic events. By combining the efforts of all the sports teams we will, hopefully, have a large amount of donations to give to the homeless shelter and hospice before Thanksgiving." Furthermore, the SAAC wants to increase student and community involvement at UW-Parkside athletic events. "One of our goals this year is to get more students who live on campus to attend athletic events, possibly by doing giveaways at some of the games. We also need to start branching out into the community, which is tough because we've never really had that before," said Coffman. One of the objectives of the SAAC this year is to make the organization more visible on campus. It would like the opportunity to work with other campus organizations. "By working with student government and other groups on campus we will, hopefully, get our name out and get some support from different organizations, as well as our organization supporting theirs," said Coffman. SAAC members ask any organization or anyone who would like to help SAAC in organizing service projects to e-mail SAAC President Brian Coffman at coffmOOO@Uwp.edu Ivan Socava Yes, I'm going to vote just because it's important to get your views across, even if [your candidate] doesn't win. Get your voice out. can be notified. If a student misses two scheduled appointments, they can no longer be tutored due to others on a waiting list. Haley-Renaud says that the writing and math help is used the most. Math help is requested the most often because it requires extra attention. As for writing, Haley-Renaud says "I am pleased to discover that students are using our writing area for papers that are assigned in aU academic areas whereas in the past, it was evident students only looked at writing as part of an English assignment." Anyone who needs help with- brainstorming, grammar, editing, developing a rough draft, or proofreading, feel free to stop by PARC and ask for help. i.UWP 10 hOSI Russ Johnson's The Olher Quanel OCI. 10 Called a jazz/improvisational group, The Other Quartet defies pigeonholing by mixing original compositions with interpretations of works by composers like Igor Stravinsky and Anton Bruckner. This unusual combination prompted Marke Andrews of the Vancouver Sun to say they "Have a fresh approach that makes you wonder why more jazz groups don't sound this good." Andrews said The Other Quartet brings structure and improvisation together "for a happy marriage." Along with Johnson, who is a Racine native, the other members of The Other Quartet are Ohad Talmor on saxophone, Jim Hershman on guitar, and Michael Sarin on drums. While reviewing the band's CD "13 Pieces," [azziz magazine called the composing and arranging by Johnson and Talmor "consistently fresh and skillful" adding "There's a good chance Johnson will be one of the next important cats on trumpet." Catch a raising musical act Tuesday, Oct. 10, when the UW-Parl<sideMusic Department presents the Other Quartet at the Union Cinema Theater. TIckets are $8 for adults, $4 for students. For more information, call (262) 595-2457. Jazz fans and those who like their music to be free of the shackles and strictures of beat and measure should hit the ticket line early for Tuesday's concert by The Other Quartet. This New York-based foursome, featuring former UW-Parkside student Russ Johnson on trumpet, plays the Union Cinema Theater Tuesday, Oct. 10 starting at 7:30 p.m. The Other Quartet here Tuesday, Oct. 10, 7:30 p.m. New York in spring, vou can be there The UW-Parkside Dramatic Arts Department is once again offering its New York Professional Theatre Seminar over spring break. Students must enroll in a one credit course to be eligible for the trip. The class will meet Tuesdays, Feb. 13 through March 27 from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Students do not have to be dramatic arts majors, therefore, anyone can attend. Once the class work is completed, the students are off to New York. This trip has been held for the past 19 years, and past participants say everyone who attends really seems to enjoy it. The group attends four theaterical productions ranging from comedies and dramas, to musicals, and off-Broadway shows. This is the only time the group is together as a whole. The rest of the time is generally spent sightseeing or experiencing the many things that New York has to offer. "This is an incredible trip," said Theatre Manager Keith Harris. "I've gone three times, and each time had its own distinctive flavor to it," Betsy Hurlbut, who won a scholarship that paid for her trip three years ago, echoes Harris' sentiments. "It really is a wonderful experience:' said Hurlbut. "It was well worth the time and money." "1 heard about this trip freshman year, and I've been looking forward to going," said this year's scholarship winner Steve Sorenson. "Everyone who has gone really loved the trip. They loved just being there and experiencing New York." Fees for the trip are $795 for quad rooms, $1,020 for triple rooms, $1,100 for twin/ double rooms, and $1,600 for single rooms. This includes round-trip airfare on Midwest Express, ground transportation to the Hotel Edison for seven nights, four theatre tickets, guest speakers, and a $25 tax deductible contribution to the Thomas Newman Memorial New York Scholarship fund. Space is limited, especially for quad rooms, so a non-refundable deposit of $150 is required as soon as possible to guarantee the airline seats. Students have until October 16 to sign up. Deposits, including address and phone number, can be dropped off at the Dramatic Arts Office between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., or they can be mailed to: Louise Jones, UW-Parkside Dramatic Arts Office, CA 221, 900 Wood Rd.

The annual event focuses on recruiting an assortment of top students from schools across southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. These students, numbering roughly 125-150 youths, are all young females from primarily Racine, Kenosha, and Zion, Illinois. However, the program extends to all public, private, and rural schools. In the past, Parkside has accepted only eighth grade students. This year, a selection of seventh graders were invited to enjoy the guest speakers and hands-on career experience as well. Margaret M. Gename, head of Youth Programs at the Center for Community Partnerships, invited female Parkside students to the field day every year to raise the awareness in young females about math, science, and technology studies. "Studies show that by eighth grade females drop in math, science, and technology. Young females end up lacking math, science, and technology from a loss of interest, a fear of difficulty, or even intimidation from peers," states Gename. These guest speakers share their experience with the children to help the program grow and become more interactive, thus raising its influential possibilities. Also involved in the event are about twenty Parkside professors lending their skills and knowledge in experimental hands-on labs with the children. These labs include biology, engineering, health care, physics, nursing, teacher education, and others, which are all being taught by our certified faculty. People such as Frances Kavenik on women studies, Susan Haller and Timothy Fossum on computer science, Paul Boyer on science and technological education, Alma Renish on science, and Penny Lyter on health/weliness. Basic high school science studies are also focused upon by Ben Greenebaum on physics, Esther Wilson and Randy McKey on anatomy, Daphne Pham on molecular biology, and Gary Wood on chemistry. In August, for the effort Parkside put into this program, the 11th annual Women in Math, Science, and Technology Day received the 2000 Equity Initiative Award for motivating young females. It was awarded by the American Association of University WomenWisconsin for excellence in achievement by not only school staff, but especially young females. The program received financial help once again this year from Allegiance HeaIthcare and Dairyland Greyhound Park, respectively. If you have any questions or wish to make a donation to the Women in Math, Science, and Technology Day, contact Margaret M. Gename at (262) 595-2309 in the Talent Hall. To all that inquire or sponsor this program's purpose, the Office of Youth Programs appreciates your help for next year's Math, Science, and Technology Day set for April 6, 2001. -----------=~~. 09-24-00 Inc 00-705 Theft from Motor Vehicle, South SAC lot, 12:26 a.m.; three students reported their cars damaged and items stolen while parked in the lot.

Officer responding Yarbrough appointed police chief Police Beat By Lisa Whitcomb New UW-Parkside police chief Dexter Yarbrough arrived on campus Sept. 21, just in time for the autumnal equinox, and like the seasons, UWParkside's new police chief will soon be changing the ways of campus policing. Yarbrough comes to UW-Parkside from Chicago with an impressive background . in law enforcement, ranging from community policing liaison and tactical team member, to police recruit instructor. Yarbrough even spent five years as an Executive Protection Specialist at Harpo Studios. The new chief has received many awards throughout his career for his exceptional policing skills, and he continues to serve as a featured speaker at many community functions addressing the ideas of community policing. He was also recognized in Face Fonoard: Young AfricanAmerican Men in a Critical Age. Coming to UW-Parkside presents Yarbrough with new perspectives and professional challenges. He is looking forward to implementing a new community-policing program around campus. The campus police plan to become more "student oriented" by walking through University buildings and around the grounds, so that they are more accessible to students' needs. Yarbrough wants to focus less on street patrol, and more on programs that will benefit the safety of the students. Programs such as assault prevention and educating students on the pitfalls of driving while intoxicated. To ensure the success of these programs, Yarbrough wants more organizaNew UW-Parkside police chief Dexter Yarbrough, left, gets some advice from outgoing chief John Ernst. Yarbrough, a veteran at the Chicago Police Department, began his duties here Sept. 21 tions like the Parkside Student Government Association and the WOI)lyns' Center to sponsor and promote safety programs in conjunction with the police. "I want to ensure that the community understands that public safety is not just a concern of the police, but that it is a shared concern of all University community members," Yarbrough said. "Crime prevention, public safety, and problem resolution are essential goals that all of us must share in order to have a safe campus environment." If your club or organization is interested in sponsoring a safety program with the police, call Yarbrough at ext. 2455. Yarbrough says that his most important job will be to ensure the safety of the University community, and he will do this by setting the tone for his department, so that his department's goals fit in with the overall mission of the University. Yarbrough wants the student body and faculty to know that "I am a capable, high-energy administrator, and I will always expect that my officers will give the best service possible to the University community." to the location found a fire had been extinguished.

Students who train at the ITPC will have an advantage with companies such as Harley-Davidson because Harley only recruits information systems graduates from UW-Parkside- and UW· Whitewater. Students who are not majoring in MIS or computer science may also benefit from the ITPC. "Our vision is not totally computer science or MIS oriented. I think we would like to be broader than that" says Professor Baldwin. Baldwin would like to see students from the graphic arts program work with student teams on potential projects such as web design and for English students to perhaps produce a pamphlet using technical writing documentation. The ITPC is located on the second floor in Molinaro Hall, room 218. If you are interested in learning more about the center, contact Dirk Baldwin at 595-2449.

On Saturday, Sept. 30, despite good play by Amy Reilly and Angela Zoiss, the University of Indianapolis beat UW-Parkside 15-9, 15-0, 5-15, and 15- 12. Reilly had d.Z kills and Zoiss contributed 18 digs in a losing cause. The loss dropped UW-Parkside to 4 and 13 overall and 2 and 4 in the conference. Bryanna Jurvis, above, and Lorrie Jones both scored twice against UMSL lead the Rangers to a 4-2 win. The teams were in Quincy, Ill. on Sunday, Oct. 1 and came away with mixed results. The men rode the shutout goaltending (again!) of Thorn Peer and scored off the feet of Andrew Nijoka, Andres Cerritos, and jeff Hines for a 3-0 win. In the women's game, Lorrie jones again scored twice and UW-Parkside out-shot Quincy 23 to 12 but lost 3-2.

The University of WisconsinParkside invites area art lovers, animal fanciers, and the curious to a most unusual-and visual- of "zoological" displays: David Holmes' Mystical Mechanical Menagerie. The sculptures, created during Holmes' recent sabbatical, will be displayed in the Communication Arts Gallery now through Thursday, Nov. 2. Admission to the exhibition is free. Holmes said this collection of oddly formed" animals" appears to be part of a circus sideshow gone terribly wrong. "For ages we have selectively bred and crossbred animals until we converted them into the most acceptable archetype attainable circumventing the laws of natural selection," said Holmes. "What will the next step be?" His vision of the "next step" is the combination of the animal and the mechanical. These "new" beasts of servitude emerge as Frankenstein-like creatures, a jumble of flesh and chrome. The affect is an arresting array of beasts that at-once frighten and amuse. "While the purpose of the Menagerie is to confront the audience with what we have done to our fellow creatures, I have attempted to empha, size a more humorous approach to the issue." Holmes stated. The Mystical Mechanical Menagerie by David Holmes is open to the public. Gallery hours are Monday and Thursday, 11am toSp.m, Tuesday and Wednesday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. The gallery is closed Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
