ALEX SCHUTZ mauImaiI@yahoo.com The March 10. riots that happened in Lhasa, the capitol of the Tibet, are trying to be attributed to the Dalai Lama, whom China is saying is in cahoots with Muslim terrorists. The riots killed 22 people; included in that total were a baby boy that was burned to death in a garage and a paramilitary officer. China's government is blaming the riots and uprisings on a small minority of Tibetians, and that the violence in no way reflects the entire region's feelings of its rule. The Chinese government claims that it is being undermined and disestablished before the Olympic games can be held there. The Communist leaders of China have gone on to say that the Dalai Lama planned allacks with "the aid of violent Uighur ~eparatist groups seeking an independent East Turkestan for their largely Muslim people in the northwestern Xinjiang region of China." There are also claims that he is "scheming to take the Beijing Olympics hostage [0 force the Chinese Government to make concessions to Tibetan independence." The Dalai Lama refutes these accusations and says there is no basis for them. He has said "1 always support the Olympics should ...take place in Beijing ... so that more than one billion human beings. that means. Chinese, they feel proud of it."

The Ranger News we are, we made it work. It's hard to believe there are only 6 more issues left in this semester, iocluding this one. This semester has flown by, and it's amazing to see how much has changed here in so little time. I feel like I've learned so much in just a few weeks, and I know in the next two years I will only learn more. I think the staff has learned a lot this semester, as well, though I obviously can't tell yoo what they've learned. On page 4 of this issue, you'll find a budget breakdown for Parkside. This was given 'to us by PSGA, and I had to cut it down to just the past few years of breakdowns. The original document was much larger, however, we just didn't have space for everything.

Send your opinions to parkside_opinion@yahoo.com to get them published (we'll need your name and email.though.ia order to publish them). this because if you bave questions about it, it would be best to ask a member of PSGA.

Voting will take place near Java Coast in Molinaro Hall. Everyone who is currently enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside should care aboutthe results of the election, as theywillhave a significant impact on theentire student body. There are four candidates whoare running for the position of President of PSGA: David Wilson, Theodore Ruffalo, Patricia Jensen, and George Lasley.ThePresident ofPSGAbas toserve as an official ceremonial representative of PSGA, be present at all General Assemblies, serveat least five office hours perweek, and appoint one Chief J . Ustlce and two lower Justices to sitonthe Student Body Supreme Coun.The President of PSG A has theability to veto any legislation O"lgn legislation into law call for an ' emergency General Assembly session with two days' notice (as long as it is scheduled for l1laximum attendance by members of tb e student Senate) can create Or di • isband Executive Committees and appointments with a majority VOle f the 0 all members present in b Senate, and create the PSGA ;d g e t with the approval of two- trds of the Senate. Wilson D·d . ".. aVI Wilson believes that "th h· IS two years as a member of tbe student government, "intimate knowledge" of the PSGA constitution (because he wrote the bylaws and passed resolutions), knowledge of United Council as well as other organizations on campus qualifies him to be the President of PSGA. If elected, Wilson would like to get rid of the j OO-signature requirement that candidates need-in order to be on the ballot because be feels that if someone wants to run, they should be able. Additionally, he plans on downsizing the bureaucracy and giving power to students and members of the Senate. David wants to cut the United States Sports Academy (USSA) in an attempt to focus on what be feels PSGA does hest: organizing and lobbying for students on the university, local, and state level. If elected, he plans on keeping segregated fees low, make sure that the latest happenings in United Council are publicized, and improve PSGA from a public relations standpoint. Furthermore, Wilson wants to "organize an efficient and coherent body of the PSGA bylaws, to regulate and define their actions of PSGA in a physically manifested form that will ensure continuity of the rule of law and give guidance for further generations to follow." Wilson feels that the expansion of Parkside should not go unchallenged. He also feels that PSGA sbould advertise the upcoming election to create more interest in it. Ruffalo Theodore Ruffalo is running for PSGA President because he feels that "this position represents opportunities that are rare and short-lived; allowing me to make the most out of my time as a student exploring a dynamic that reaches past lectures and the classroom. Those opportunities include: making a difference in politics, helping shape the course of my (student) community for tbe better, and being proactive by helping to create lasting, fulfilling changes that will benefit Parkside students after I'm gone." Ruffalo believes that he is a qualified 10 be President of PSG A because be cares about what is happening on campus. Additionally, he speaks out and takes actions to solve problems and resolve issues and problems in PSGA. Ruffalo feels that leadership roles he had in the U.S. Marine Corps have prepared him to run student government, if he is elected. The goals he has for PSGA if he is elected President are the following: to create a streamlined student government of proactive individuals and user- friendly rules and regulations, make PSGA more appealing for a greater diversity of students, and demonstrate that you don't have to be a politician to "enjoy and enrich Parkside with political actions." Jensen Patricia Jensen is running to promote campus unity, as she believes that no organization feels valued or respected and feels that PSG A should set the tone for relations with the university "We've got issues" and organizations. Jensen has a wealth of experiences that have prepared her for being the head of PSGA: one year as the President of Sacred Circle, for two years she was the secretary of the same organization, three years as a member of Parkside Adult Student Alliance (PASA), one year as secretary of the Parkside Environmental Club, served as a Senator in PSGA for two years, one year as a member of Student University Fees Allocation Committee (SUFAC), a former member of The Ranger News, a member of student government in the Kenosha Gateway Technical College, as well as being a former co-editor of the newspaper for the Kenosha Gateway Technical College. If Jensen is elected, she has some immediate goals: change the location PSGA Senators hold their meetings, advertise PSGA, enforce what is in the PSGA constitution, make every aspect of student government more accessible because students pay fees that go towards PSGA, as such they have a right to know what's going on, conduct a student survey regarding what 'they want from PSGA, and invite the entire student body to United Council as all students pay for Parkside to be a member of it. Patricia bas several long term plans for PSGA, if she is the victor in the race for President for PSGA: she wants to have a meeting once a week with every single organization on campus because all organizations have value to them, and if they focus their energy on an issue there is no telling what could be possible. Jensen wants to improve the communication between the faculty and students of Parkside and communication between university administration and those currently taking classes at Parkside. Lasley George Lasley was unavailable for comment. Vice President and Senate Billy McCollum and Antonio Roudez are both running for Vice- President of PSGA. The Vice- President of PSGA has enormous responsibilities: he or she must monitor and inform the student Senate on the financial condition of PSGA, give an itemized budget and make bi-weekly reports, be a voting member of the Executive Board, serve at least four office hours aweek, and has to be present at all General Assemblies. As of this writing there are six people running for student Senate. However, an extension was granted until Man Apr. 13 at II a.m., at which time all applications had to be turned into the PSGA office for those who wished to be on the election ballot for this position. All members of the Senate must be present during all General Assemblies, and must serve at least two office hours per week in the PSGA office. Members of the Senate have the power to do the following: pass legislation in the interest of the student body with majority vote; override Presidential vetoes with a two-thirds vote, call referendum or special elections a two-thirds vote, impeach or censure any member of the Senate or any executive officer; or remove a Justice for not fulfilling their duties) or engaging in immoral dishonest activities with a two- thirds approval vote, approve Constitutional amendments with a three-fourths majority vote, approve the agenda for General Assemblies, amend the agenda with a majority vote of all those in attendance, and approve appointments to the Supreme Court with a two-thirds vote and committee director positions with a majority vote.

Furthermore, Senators have the right to raise motions or participate in discussions with the Senate and can second a motion or vote in the Senate. 2 April 15, 2008 900 Wood Rood Kenosha, WI53141 Phone:(262)595.2287 Fax: (262) 595-2295 Ads: uwp_ods@yahoo.com E·man: rangernews@uwp.edu Editor In Chi.'

Besides the election coverage, there is a brief article about some former PSGA Presidents visiting the new Union, and two resolutions passed by the Senate. For not having much PSGA coverage throughout the semester, this almost seems like PSG A-overload. And maybe it is. But 1 think it's a good thing that we have all of this information in the issue.

Interview with a Professor Featuring Dr. Dana Oswald MOLLIE EGAN tree_fingers99@yahoo.com Dr. Dana Oswald has been teaching at the University of Wisconsin - Parkside since 2005, but she began teaching when she was in graduate school while she was a teacher's assistant at Ohio State University. Before she came to UW-Parkside, for a year she taught at a smaIl university in Ohio called Whitenburg. Oswald teaches medieval literature, theory, gender classes and history of the English language. Oswald came to UW-Parkside because she had gotten an offer at UW-Parkside and at a school in Alaska, so she decided to stay around here and teach. She was also attracted to UW-Parkside because of the small. school size; none of her classes are overly huge. Oswald also likes that many of her studenrs at UW-Parkside are non-traditional students; those students aren't here because it's the next step that they should. do after high school, but they are at school because they want to be there. Oswald always knew she wanted to be a teacher because she comes from a family of teachers. She lovesnothing better thengetting up in front of a class that is really responding to what she is teaching and having a great class discussion. Oswald got her Bachelor's from the University of North Colorado. got her Master's and her Doctorate at Ohio State University. Her Ph.D. is in English with a specialty in medieval literature. One of Oswald's favorite classes she has ever gotten to teach is violence in medieval literature. In the literature that they were reading for that class the students actually kept a body count for how many times someone lost a limb from their body. Another favorite class that Oswald has taught is a senior seminar of medieval romance literature. Oswald's most recent favorite class that she has taught is literary analysis. Oswald is involved with Women's and Gender studies on campus. She is on their committee and helps makes discussions on what sorts of lectures they arc going to have and things like that. Oswald's advice tothestudents is to talk to your professors. She said that when things start to go wrong. is when a student doesn't go and talk to their professor. She said they are there to help you and would like to help you understand what they are teaching • 900 Wood Road Kenosha, WI 53141 Phone:(262)595.2287 fax: {262j595·2295 Ads: uwp_ods@yahoo.com E-mail: rangernews@uwp.edu Editor I.

They also wanted companies to provide an enhanced selection of current trade, academic, and technical literature. A major factor was JOKIRST dlerdraphoenixesgmail.com The University of Wisconsin-Parkside, III compliance with a state law, recently looked into hiring a new provider for the campus bookstore. The final decision was to hire Valadis Resources as the new provider. Valadis resources had to create a proposal and send it to a review committeee. The committee consisted of Rick Haskey, the Contract Administrator; Rhonda Kimmel, the company's drive to maintain competitive prices compared to other retail outlets in the area. Companies that wished to participate in the evaluation were required to send a typed. securely bound proposal prepared on standard 8.5 inch by j I inch paper. The proposal had to include a cover page, introduction, the company's information, response to technical requirements, cost proposal, and required forms -- an affidavit and designation of confidential and proprietary information. Follett Higher Education Group and Validis Resources were the two proposals for the committee to evaluate. The proposals were rated on a number scale, with 1000 points being a perfect score. Valadis Resources scored 908 points while Follett Higher Education Group (the former bookstore provider) scoring only 742 points. Rick Haskey, a member of the committee, said that Valadis Resources was a better choice than Follett Higher Education Group because "Valadis met the majority of criteria and fulfilled the expectations of the committee. The goal is to create a bookstore service program that meets the needs of a diverse student body, faculty, and staff." Presenting next year's Student President: Ted Ruffalo MOLLIE EGAN tree_fingers99@yahoo.com The next President of Parkside Student Government Association (pSG A) is Theodore Ruffalo, as Tony DuBose's term is up at tbe end of tbe current semester. Currently, Ted is ajunior at the University of Wisconsin- -Parkside, majoring in Political Science with a concentration in Jaw. Ruffalo intends to serve for the "maximum duration, with maximum effectiveness". Prior to and during the elections, Ruffalo got his name out to the student body by posting flyers all around the sebool, writing reminders to vote for him on the sidewalks in chalk, and speaking to student organizations on issues and concerns that are part of his platform. He wanted a personal approach with a strong visual element. As President of PSGA, Ruffalo intends to reinstate the Presidential Council. According to Ted, this would foster student organization interrelations, increase awareness, and open avenues of communication between organizations. Ruffalo wants to maintain 3 "streamline, but comprehensive. Constitution with strong bylaws". Along the same lines. he wants the legislature to be "clear, ccnsise, and user-friendly". Ted aims to follow in current President Tony Dubose's plan for "Major Status Organization criteria evaluation and consideration, through a committee". When asked about the Facebook groups and other anti- Ruffalo material that floated arou nd campus during the election week, he said with laughter "smear campaigns are always unfortunate, but.i.appreciate that students were taking an active interest in Parkside politics." • • A run to raise awareness ROBERT ROSATI robertrosati@hotmail.com MOLLIE EGAN tree_fingers99@yahoo.com A little over two years ago tragedy struck Doug De Vinny, the Interim Associate Provost and art professor at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, when his daughter. Alex, passed away at the age of 20. Alex suffered from the eating disorder known as anorexia. which eventually caused her death. Alex was an extraordinary competitor gifted runner and with this in mind, DeVinny's other daughters came up with the idea to "do something to sort of sustain her interest and memory and the idea was to do a ('We~ve got issues" race." Alex was a freshman in high school when her athletic prowess on the track field was evident: she set a record at the Tremper CC (Cross Country) invite in the 4K (kilometers) with a time of 14:04. At the Rebel Invite/Parkside CC Course, a 4K track, she set a record with a time of 13:54. Alex DeVinny set another record, that same year. At the South Milwaukee Invite held at Grant Park, when her time was an incredible 14:16 in a 4K race. She also earned first place in the following events as a high school freshman: Cross country sectional. track and field SE (South East) conference 1600 and 3000M (meters). track and field regional 1600 and 3200M. as well as in a track and field section 1600 and 3200M race. Alex's domination in track and field events continuedduringherjunior year of high school. She won four events that year: the cross country sectional, track and field regional 1600 and 3200M. track and field sectional 3200M, as well as the track and field state meet 3200 M. Alex enjoyed competing in the Lighthonse Run. Alex won the women's 4-mile race in back- to-back years in 2000 and 200 I. In 2001 she set a" course record with a time of 22:39, which still stands to this day. and Alex was posthumously inducted into the Wisconsin Runners Hall of Fame at the race in 2005.

As Bob mentioned last week, I was out of town the weekend of the 19th and 20th. I went on a "mini-vacation", and in case you were wondering, It was a good time.

I was hoping it'd be up and running by this point so she would be able to use the latest software and all that jazz, but unfortunately there is still some work to be done. We're still in the process of getting everything set up the way we need it, and incorporating the computer into our network in the office. My hope is that Ruth will be able to use it at least once before this semester is over. If not, she will be back in fall to use the new iMac and work her magic on the articles, photos, images, and illustrations we collect each week for the paper. THINGS TO DO April 29, 20~ Along with the new computer comes new software for us. We recently upgraded our design software to Adobe Creative Suite 3. Previously, we had been using CS I for our layout. This, unfortunately, bas created some problems when we transfer our files over to our art manager at the publishing company. However, Holly (the art manager) has been patient and helped us through some extra steps to make sure the files all transfer correctly. To think that there are only two more issues left in this semester (not counting this one) is crazy. T still can't wrap my head around the fact that this semester has flown by. I must say, I've learned a lot this semester, and I'm sure I will only learn more (and develop the skills I already have) in the next two years. Yes, you read that right--I intend on sticking around as Editor-in-Chief until I graduate in 2010. I iook forward to working with so many new people, both within and outside of the Ranger News. As we get even closer 10 t~ end of the semester, everyone' schedules seem to fill up rno and more each day. I encourall our staff' members to keep putting forth their absoiute be~ effort into helping us finish thij semester on a high note. I realize that The Ranger News is I volunteer organization, and it is team effort to get the paper outt~ you every Tuesday, but we eeail~ need everyone to contribute asj much and as best as they c~ right up until the end. I tbink that about does it fO<' this week. I hope you all aren\ too stressed out with the en of the semester just around th comer, and I hope you enjoy thi issue!

JOKIRST dierdraphoenix@gmail.com MICHAEL RIEDLINGER rioo001@uwp.edu As the students at the University of Wisconsin- Parkside have probably noticed, the wireless network that Parkside currently provides is not , , meeting the demand the students place on it. The Parks ide Student Government Association (PSGA) has taken note of this, and is working with the Computer Science Club (CSC) to come up with some solutions to this problem. "President Ruffalo feels that these suggestions are not only Practical, but entirety executable as well To ignore ,. , J!' ,I. l l' , , ' I UW-System resources RYAN ASHTON ashto001@uwp.edu Earlier this year, University of Wisconsin-System Library Directors collaboratively SUbmitted a budget request (known as a Decision Item Narrative or DIN) to the UW- System Budget Office to be COnsidered as part of a 2009- iOl.l .

This proposal, called Advantage Wisconsin: Growing ~e Research Infrastructure 9 ibrary Component), sks-tbar million dollars be allocated to ~ UW-System Libraries for purposes of expanding the ~h infrastructures of all the -SYstem lihraries- including p Umversity of Wisconsin- arkside. These funds, should they be ~anted, will primarily be used t~ expand electronic resources ~ughout the libraries in the fe -SYstem. One important th:~re 111 this initiative is that Ibrary funds wouid provide these suggestions would be a detriment to all students and faculty at Parkside, both now and in the near future," states a press release written by Michael Riedlinger, the Public Relations Director for PSGA. According to the report compiled by the CSc. tbere are "relatively few access points, and several [or the access points] have , stability issues". The majority of the Communication Arts building does not have any wireless access, and several Computer Science classrooms also lack wireless Internet. The CSC feels that every classroom should have Internet access, so that students can "easily download a copy of their syllabi from D2L, check/submit assignments, and do research." In addition to· connectivity being sporadic, the UW-P wireless network is also very slow. "The campus is currently limiting traffic on the wireless network ... Traffic limiting causes the wireless network to be unusable", the CSC report explains. The classrooms on campus with hardwired Internet connections have a speed of IOMbps (megabits per second), whereas the Computer Science Department has a connection speed of IOOOMbps. "This creates a bottleneck for the wireless network as well, because the campus wired network is often slow during the day. This problem is also due to the current networking equipment's inability to satisfy the Current demand from students," according to the report. Most of the wireless access points on campus are far slower than what the current consumer market uses, at II Mbps. This is a problem because students have to sbare the available bandwidth. If UW-Parkside upgraded their hardware, the wireless network would be accessible in more places, move faster, and would be more reliable. How does the CSC suggest UW-Parkside resolve this issue? The report suggests replacing the current access points. "Most Parkside classrooms currently have an Ethernet drop, therefore it would be simple and inexpensive to buy consumer hardware for high-traffic rooms and areas ... An added advantage of this would be that replacements would be simple and inexpensive continued on poge 4 request funds to expand electronic all UW-System faculty access to all of the University of Wisconsin-Madison's electronic resonrces-a feature that should keep university researchers up to date with state of the art information and technology. It is also expected that this increased versatility in electronic resources will attract high caliber faculty members to institutions like UW- Parkside, These high caliber researchers, coupled with the proposed technological advances, should expand opportuntues for bothJJW-l'arkside and otleer UW- System students to participate in cutting-edge research. This initiative is especially important for the smaller UW- System institutions like UW- Parkside. Electronic resources, as they continue to become mo~e viral for competitive academic research, are also becoming increasingly expensJ:e. According to ~-Parkslde Library Director Vanaja Menon, some electronic resources have increased their annual .... ., •• ' 1f I f subscription rates as much as 40 percent in one year, which puts heavy financial strain on UW- Parkside's library budget. Given the high cost of these electronic resources, smaller institutions simply do not have the financial resources necessary to keep up "We've got issues" with industry trends.

I don't know where this year went , honestly. J started working at The Ranger News last semester as a copy editor, got bumped up to Executive Editor (to be trained to be Editor-in- Chief next schooi year), and by The Ranger News May 6, 2008 e time this semester started, I was Editor-in-Chief. It sounds cliche, I know, but it does seem like just yesterday that I walked into this office as a somewhat shy kid wanting to get involved on campus. Since then, I've really come out of my sbell. I've sharpened my skills at probiem solving and making decisions on tbe fly (for the times where I have iittle information to go off of). I'm better at speaking in front of a group, and speaking to people I don't know. I am better at asking for help, even though I still think I can do everytbing myself. And while I admit J have a temper, working here and dealing with some frustrating moments has actually helped me keep it in check better than I used to be able to. I'm more organized, and T try and stay on top of everything as best I can. I am more motivated to get work done, regardless of whether it's school work or newspaper work. I know there's still ways I can improve, though. r need to THINGS TO DO work on the way I conduct our staff meetings every week--I try to keep them lighthearted, but serious enough that everything gets accomplished. I think I can strike a better balance between the two, however. I'm sure our staff meetings could be more productive, and it's up to me to find a way to make them that way. The long hours on weekends (yes, I and several others do work on the weekends!) have been grueling at times, but I think they've paid off. [ am happy with the way the paper has improved this semester, and I look forward to seeing what next semester brings us. You may think "well, once school's over, she'll have a break". Not entirely true, as much as you and I both wish it were. We are moving to the Student Union at some point in the near future, so we have to pack up our office supplies in order for the move. I'm working on putting together a staff handbook, creating both documents from scratch and incorporating pieces from our older staff handbook. The constitution needs some revision as well. [' II be coming up with story ideas for our first fall issue and ideas to use for the rest of the fall semester. The Ranger News never really stops functioning, school or no school. The only time it actually stops is when peopie (either the staff or the students who read it) stop caring about it. I made this letter more about me than I intended, but I think that's okay. Self-reflection is a good thing, right? Next week's letter will be more about OUf staff, especially those who are graduating, than myself and what I've learned as Editor-in-Chief. Until then, enjoy the issue (it's another 16 pages, which i think is absolutely amazing!), and enjoy the last week of classes!

One of the candidates dropped out of the running on Apr. 30, The four finalists are Robert Felner, from the University of Louisville; TJ. Bryan of Fayetteville State University; Gloria J. Gibson from Arkansas State University; and Maurice Taylor of Morgan State University. Our current Chancellor isJohn (Jack) Keating, whowill be retiring in August John (Jack) Keating Jack KeaLing has been the Chancellor of UW-Parkside since1998, but not before taking on leadership roles at other universities: He was appointed TAYLOR founding Dean and Vice Provost of two University of Washington campuses (Tacoma and Bothel) in 1989, and in 1994 he was the first Provost at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks. He remained at the University of Alaska until taking on the Chancellorship role at Uw-Parkside. He has his PhD. in Social Psychology from The Ohio State University, and focuses his research on human behavior both before and after emergencies or disasters. His biography on the UW-Parkside website explains that his most recent research studied "trauma experienced by emergency responders after major disasters." Most of this research was done in cooperation with the New York City Red Cross. He has also chaired an international meeting of high-rise evacuation experts in New York City to study lessons learned from the World Trade Center tragedy. As Chancellor at UW- Parks ide. Jack has worked with BRYAN the commumnes in Southeast Wisconsin. Currently, he is interested in "current reform of teacher education", and co-chairs the "University of Wisconsin System's Committee of PK-16 initiatives" . Robert FeIner Robert FeIner is currently the Dean of the College of Education and Human Development at the University of Louisville, in Louisville, Kentucky, Previously, he served as co-chair of the University-Community Partnership Board at the University of Louisville. He has taught at.the, University of Rhode Island, the University of Illinois, Auburn University, and Yale University. He has his doctorate in Psychology, from the .University of Rochester. He met with the UW-Parkside community on Monday, May 5, and he answered a variety of questions. When asked about the diversity in the student population, and how he Choosing a Chancellor JO KIRST dierdraphoenix@gmail,com Back in January, Chancellor John (Jack) Keating announced his plans to retire this August. As a result, two committees were created: the Search-and- Screen committee and the Special Regents committee. The Search-and-Screen committee is largely composed of faculty, butalso includes academic staff, students (either picked by the school's student government or the President of the University of Wisconsin System), adlllinistrators, and community members. The chairperson of this Committee is a faculty member. The Special Regents committee 1S1l1ade up of "not less than three nornot more than fi ve Regents" , aCCOrding to the University of W1Sconsin-Parkside's website (UWp.edu), The President d . CSlgnates the chairperson for this committee. The Search-and- Screen committee's primary responsibility is to "conduct a nationwide search for a diverse Poolofoutstanding, wen-qualified candidates, and to select from that applicant pool nat fewer than five persons to be forwarded by the committee to the President and the Special Regent committee for further consideration. The process of finding a new Chancellor can take anywhere from 6 to 10 months from start to finish. Since the process is so lengthy, the Search-and-Screen committee broke it down into four phases. During the first phase, the committee searches all over the country for candidates, They begin by advertising the position and taking applications. As the applications come in, the committee members evaluate them and any other documents attached to the application. They check with the applicant's references, calling them. writing them. or meeting with them face to face. Once the committee narrows the pooJ down to 8 to 12 applicants. they conduct interviews. Those who "pass" the interview are added to a "short list" of suitable applicants. The "short list" contains no fewer than fi ve candidates. and they are. listed in no particular order. After the "short list" is completed, the second phase can begin. The President holds a meeting with the two committees GmSON would address the different needs of the diverse student body, he replied by saying that all groups within the University need to be supportive of each other, and to facilitate this, a central inclusive area would be created. Another question asked dealt with the retention rates and how they can be improved. Feiner thinks developing a mentoring program will help with this problem: The issue of public transportation was brought up by a student from Racine, and Feiner believes that the issue can be resolved easily enough through some negotiations with the city.

Unfortunately, there wasn't a major that met most of the department requirements and prerequisites for entrance into these programs. Dr. Bryan Lewis, Dr. Carmel Ruffolo, and I came up with the idea of creating a new major to meet this need. Since UW-Parkside already offered the vast majority of the courses needed for such a major, it was just a matter of putti~g the courses together in a cohesive manner to meet the requirements of most of the graduate and professional programs."

'''Come get that good copylf,' Learn and Serve Challenge ROBERT ROSATI robertrosatteshotmail.com This past week from Sept. 17-23, the University of Wisconsin-Parkside joined a legion of educational institutions across the nation participating in Learn and Serve Challenge Week. Service learning is a method of teaching that includes community work in the curriculum, which provides students with experience in their field of study while providing a valuable service to the community. The UW-Parkside is currently the headquarters of Wisconsin Campus Connection (WCC), which is extends throughout the nation as a student service organization with chapters at 36 colleges "The Volunteer Program is a resource for students, facilitating, and/or partnering with them on volunteer events or activities," - Cosey Jones the director of UW-Porkside's Volunteer and Experiential Program. and universities throughout Wisconsin. Chancellor John Keating serves as a co-chair for WCe. Casey Jones is the director ofUW-Parkside's Volunteer and Experiential Program. Jones said numerous schools are incorporating service learning as a vital part of the education of students and career preparation. "Students have made career choices, gained employment, learned new skills, and increased their personal confideoce, all while they gained the satisfaction of helping others. The Volunteer Program is a resource for students, facilitating, and/or partnering with them on volunteer events or activities," said Jones. Due to the current Volunteer and Experiential Program, hundreds of students work to understand and prevent domestic violence. learn business management, assist in therapy, improve literacy, and study several social issues. Service learning helps individuals develop their critical thinking skills, improves workforce readiness, and prepares students to become responsible leaders. Last year Campus Compact students across the country contributed $7.1 billion in services though campus- organized programs. 2 September 25, 2007 The Ranger News 900 Wood Road Kenosha, WI 53141 Phane:(262)595.2287 Fax: (262) 595·2295 Ads: uwp~ads@yahoo.com Website: rangernews@uwp.edu Editor in Chief Koitly.

This is the random movement of OUf news stands. 1'01 not sure if this is being done hy janitorial staff, students or (heaven forbid) faculty, but [ find it very aggravating. It is not only an annoyance, though. Our stands are placed in specific places so as to be visually eye-catching and to make our papers readily available. In a few instances, I have found them behind walls or shoved into comers where I couldn't find them for several minutes, even when I was looking for them. Please respect our news stands. and if you need to move them for some reason, such as cleaning, please return them to their proper places. 1 hope someone will come into our news office (Wyllie D J 39C) next Friday to talk to me about moving our news stands!

Arts 0 lI8 It takes a lot of time to put together a weekly paper. This did not really occur to me until I tried to actually count the number of hours I put in each week. According to our office door, I have about sixteen posted office hours. However, the reality is a lot more than that, probably even upwards of 30 or more hours per week. Yes, I get paid a stipend for the semester, but if you average it out, I get paid less than a dollar an hour. This is not a plea for sympathy. In fact, I love what I do, and I get great satisfaction in distributing the papers every week. knowing that r helped make each issue a reality. At the same time, it is not just me. If I had to put the paper together all by myself. I would not be able to attend classes, sleep, or have any type of a social life. It is my staff and even other students on campus who really pull the weight to get those papers on the stands each and every week. For our Oct. 2 issue, we increased our circulation by over 14 percent. Although [am not a math major, I can see that it was a'great improvement from the previous week. I also got a lot of feedback on our Oct. 9 issue. which was very colorful and visual and had some great content. However, it was not all good. I got some negative feedback, too, and I would like to take the chance to explain a few things about our opinion page. A few individuals have accused DO TRru us of producing a biased paper due to some of the editorials we ran last week. The Ranger News uses the opinion page as an open fol'lltll for students to discuss their views on different issues in a relatively uncensored format. We 'not request that people write certain opinions, and our staff mayor may not agree with the content of the editorials we print. By no means , is the opinion section a direct reflection of my ~ views as editor in chief, nor am I trying to any hidden agenda by encouraging staff to write editorials with a specific slant. That said, if there is anything in our paper as a whole, or specifically within the opinion section, that you disagree with in any way, you are more than welcome to submit your opinion to The Ranger News. We will run what you send us, even if it puts us in a bad light. For example, I encouraged one of the people with ~ a negative view of our opinion section to'Write an opinion about it. I know that sounds iroD(c, but it just might be one of the best ways to get an opinion heard, rather than just sending me an e-mail about the issue.
