According to the study, students who graduated with debt from the university in 1999had an average debt of $7,725 per student. The University of St. Francis in Indiana was ranked first with an average debt of $3,216 per student among its graduates who incurred debt. Chicago State University, on the other hand, had the most debt. Fifty percent of their students graduated with a debt of $23,000. In addition to low debt, 57% of Parkside's students were debt free. Again, the University of St. Francis was ranked first, only 5% of their students were without debt. In fact, of the five universities ranked for low debt in the Midwest, only Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan had more students debt free, 65%. When U.s. News and World Report compiled the information, they took into account loans taken out by students from the colleges themselves, from financial institutions, and from federal, state, and local governments. For Parkside students, this primarily entails Federal Stafford loans which are allocated by the Great Lakes Higher Education Corporation, the guaranty agency that serves this area. In 1999,nearly 2,800 Parkside students borrowed, 44% of the enrollment. The total amount of tuition loaned was around $8 million dollars. Reasons for Parkside's low debt may be a combination of several things. First, low debt may be contributed to the university's low tuition. Among the thirteen, four-year, public universities in Wisconsin, Parkside ranks third for lowest tuition rates. UW-Oshkosh and UW-Superior narrowly beat out Parkside both having a difference of under $100 each. If students are spending less, they will owe less. Secondly, a large majority of Parkside's students are commuters. In 1999, only 714 students lived in the dorms--that's 9% of Parkside's overall student population. This means that Parkside students are owing the university less money every semester than the average college student at other institutions. Thirdly, many students are qualifying for grants. These are sums of money used toward university fees that do not have to be paid back. Ingrid Austin, the acting director in Parkside's Financial Aid & Scholarships office, explains, "We have a number of students who show quite a bit of [financial] need when they go through the financial aid process. So a lot of those students are receiving grant funds either from the federal government or the state government. A lot of students are finding out that they are able to cover a large percent of their tuition through grants." Lastly, Parkside has a large percentage of non-traditional students and students who nave Jobs outside of school. In both cases, these students can pay their tuition or payoff their loans before they incur a large amount of debt. 3 Trager trip an exchange between (riends By Will Brinkman Professor I:.i1lianTrager left on October 5, 2000, for Nigeria, Africa.As a part of the faculty exchange program between UW-Parkside and Obafemi Awolowo University in lie-He, a southern region of Nigeria, she will spend two semesters in Africa. In addition, Trager is participating in the sociology trip to Ghana, Africa. "I have a very long standing connection with the university because of a faculty exchange which I directed, and also because of my research. Between 1991 and 1996six faculty members from there came here to Parkside and several Parkside faculty members went there." According to Trager, when most people think of Africa, Professor Lillian Trager leads sociology trip to Ghana, Africa. more specifically East Africa, they think of going on safari and viewing wild animals. This is not the case in West Africa. "This is not the trip for people who want to go to Africa to see animals. It's much more exciting for people who are interested in other cultures and history, learning about and meeting people from Ghana. What you have in West Africa is lots of people, culture, religion, ritual, art, dance, and music." Along with the faculty exchange program that Trager is participating in, there is a sociology trip to Ghana, West Africa. The trip to Ghana is tied. to an eight week course between October 26 and December 14 of this year. The class meets between 7 and 8:45p.m. on Thursday evenings. The curriculum is geared towards familiarizing the students with the culture, history, and arts of WestAfrica. "The class will be taught by James Stills. Because I'll already be in West Africa, I expect to be able to meet the group in Ghana for the trip itself," said Trager. "The first part of the course is an orientation to the culture, history, and background of Ghana. The second part is about practical things such as health issues, clothing, living conditions, questions quite usual for people who haven't previously visited that area of the world. For information on this trip to Ghana and the corresponding curriculum, contact Lillian Trager at 262-595-2543 or at trager@uwp.edu, James Stills at 262-619-6640 or stillsj@gatewaytec.wi.us, or Joe Lambin at 262-595-2177or lambin@Uwp.edu.

They say that the quality and quantity just is not there. They wonder where the extra money is going when they do not use up their entire meal plan. Will they be able to buy in bulk at the end of the year or receive a refund on their money? This was a foremost question on every student's mind at the meeting on Monday, October 2nd, led by DeAnn Stone. All students living on campus are required to have a meal plan. For the 2000-20001 academic school year a block meal plan has been designated. Everyone but the seniors are required to have a meal plan that includes block meals. The smallest of these plans costs $715 and each individual block meal costs $5.80. The price is to include an all-you-can-eat-buffet or some meals sold down at the Union Square. Students are complaining that they are not getting a wide enough variety; for example stir fry was served two nights in a row. Most of the students are not eating their blocks worth. One reason for this is the dining room is only open at night from 4:30-7:00 p.m.; this causes problems for those students who work or attend classes during the evening. Marriott, the food distributor for UW-Parkside, did not renew their contract because they were losing money. UWP reached an agreement with them to continue; Marriott gave UWP various options. The meal block program was one of the options in which UWP chose in the best interest Rape: keep it from happening By Brenda Dunham Ten unsuspecting University .Residents thought they were going to a Hawaiian Luau sponsored by Resident Life. They all received a leigh and a drink. However, some of those drinks were in previously marked cups indicating, the ,possibility and ease in which someone could receive a date rape drug. Knowing that this scary possibility could be a reality, Parkside Police Officer Marlene Schlecht was there to help students realize there are things everyone can do to keep rape from happening. The first thing to know about preventing rape is understanding more about it. According to the surviving sexual assault advocates, "rape is an act of violence. Itis an attempt to control and degrade using sex as a of the students. UW-Parkside was supposed to get a Taco Bell a couple of years ago, but they declined saying not enough students lived on campus for the business to be profitable. Students would also like to see specific meals set aside on an a la carte menu. The prices of individual food items are too high, and according to Dennis Casey, "the main reason for that was the high price 0.£ gas during the summer which caused delivery backups." The new system of the dining room is also causing havoc for UWP students who live in the apartments as well as faculty and staff. A la carte is not offered at night, and so many of the professors refuse to eat here anymore. According to Professor Randy McKee, " it is easier and cheaper to pick up something from a McDonald's than to stand in line for an allyou know. "Rapists rape again and again, until caught." To keep rape from happening to you, be aware 0.£ your surroundings and walk with confidence and purpose. Don't' let Eric ROChe:Mar~eneSchlecht, and Katie Lohre cleverly teach students how to avold being a victim. weapon." It can happen to any person no matter how old or what sex they are. Rapists can be anyone, especially people drugs and alcohol cloud your judgment, trust your instincts by leaving an uncomfortable situation or place. Lock all the you-can eat buffet when you really only want a bowl of soup." Apartment students are starting to cook since it is less of a hassle and cheaper, and they think that there needs to be a different arrangement for them other than the meal block program. Meals that have not been eaten during the fall semester will carryover into the spring term. There is currently no solution to the problem of meals not eaten after the entire year. Meetings are being held to come up with a solution. Buying bulk may be a possible option, which is now available with the a la carte. The meal plan is not going to go away; however, there may be solutions to the problems. If any student is concerned with these issues, then they should feel free to attend. The next meeting will be on Monday, October 23rd in Moln 114 at noon. doors and windows in your home and car. Use a peep hole and make sales or service people show identification, never enter your house if it shows signs of forced entree. Be sure to get to know your neighbors; you might need to go to them for help. Be wary of isolated spots such as apartment laundry rooms and parking lots, park in well lighted and well traveled areas, never hitchhike or pick up hitchhikers, and always have your keys ready before you get to your car, home, or office. If you do get into a possible rape situation try to get away and make a lot 0.£ noise. Screaming may just be the thing to discourage your attacker. You may also stall or attack. Attacking must be quick Continued back page... -- Student Voices AIDS Walk and its protestors by Chris Cantir Around five thousand people raised $692,544 during the AIDS Walk in Milwaukee on October first. The weather was perfect and people walked for a good cause AIDSis a disease that kills people every day. The walkers collected donations that will go to 15 local organizations that raise awareness and help people diagnosed with the HIV virus. Close to the end of the walk, the participants were heckled by a small crowd of protesters. They thought we were raising money for a gay cause. They should read the final press release of the AIDS Walk organization: "Sharing the stage with national spokesperson Jackie [oyner-Kersee was Nile Sandeen, the young man who inspired the creation of Media takes sides Political review by Shane McDonald It seems that the media do not cover each candidate equally. It does not cover third party candidates like Ralph Nader and Pat Buchanan. It emphasizes Governor Bush's mistakes and ignores Vice-President Gore's. Right now, many of you are probably saying, "thatis your opinion, but where is your proof?" Well, how about the facts. Fact #1 Negative Repablican coverage RATS...A Republican ad attempted to convince voters that Democratic plans would involve to many bureaucrats. The words of the ad were fragmented, and when they fragmented the word bureaucrats it ended with the word "rats." I have no opinion on wether it was intended to poke fun at the Democratic party or not. I didn't make the ad. My point is the Democratic Party felt that the ad contained subliminal messages and the story was covered by the national media. @#!$%%...When Governor Bush used obscene language toward a member of the media, it was covered. Fact #2 Lack of negative Democrat coverage Fund raisers at The White House? On Friday, September 22, the CBS Evening News and ABC's World News failed to report anything about the White House's sleepover lists, which were lists of Clinton campaign donors who had slept over at the White House. You would think that the American tax payers have a right to know who is staying in our government buildings. It is our taxes which pay for government buildings such as the White House. The politicians in those buildings should be our employees since we pay Camp Heartland, a summer camp experience for children with HIV." People who came out to protest the walk should know that AIDS affects anyone - gay or straight. The 5,000 walkers for them with our tax money. The fact that major news networks tried to hide this information aggravates me and it should aggravate you, too! Look for the Union Label...In a meeting with union workers, AI Gore stated that when he was a child his parents sang him to sleep with the Union song "Look for the Union Label." There was only one problem with this, the song was written when Al Gore was 27 years old. Now I'm not going to judge the vice-president, it may have been an honest mistake. My real concern is that (with the exception of the Fox News Network) none of the major networks pointed out Gore's mistake. Fact #3 No third party coverage It is upsetting that none of the third party candidates get consistent coverage. You would think that in America everyone gets to have their voice heard. Our diversity is what makes our country great. But, once again it seems that the mainpassed by those clowns and had to ignore them. Nobody was going to stop walking and ask for forgiveness. Nobody was going to agree with what the protesters were saying. If it was a gay cause, who cares? It's about helping people. Bottom line - walkers got together and raised more than half a million dollars. And people protestingmade fools of thernselves. If you would like to get more information on the AIDS Walk and the disease itself, go to the AIDS Walk Web site www.arcw.org. stream networks have decided to censor the campaigns in order to get their boys elected. Strong accusation you say? Well according to Fox News several of the heads of the news media were on the White House sleep-over lists, including the head of CNN. In the 1996 election 90% of the media voted for Clinton/Gore. I wish that the heads of the media would refrain from endorsing candidates. I must admit the first presidential debate was a pleasant surprise. The mainstream media did not show as much bias as in past months. However, it is still disappointing that Nader and Buchanan were not allowed in the debate. They were allowed to state their views after the debate, on Fox News, which I feel provides the best political coverage on TV. Itis important to vote, but it is equally important to be informed. All this talk about "Rock the Vote" is fine but make sure you know who your voting for. You wouldn't want to vote for a candidate with different views than yours, would you? - trying to force a loss on Boone's Titans. He threatens to publicly expose any, and all of the officials who are trying to bring down Boone's career as a coach. Yoast and Boone form a lifetime friendship, based on a mutual respect of each other, which still exists today. They continued to coach together for several more years at T.e. Williams high school, until they both retired in the early eighties. This film is a certain Oscar contender with its superb story line that is both heart wrenching and heart warming. The entire cast did an exceptional job of bringing today's audience back into the mindset of the turbulent early '70s. For those of us who were not a part of the segregation upheaval, we can certainly appreciate the efforts of this team, and its coaches, to break down skin color barriers and show the rest of the world how to be friends with their neighbors. 6 Movie Review'.· <:. of their games.

Coach Boone and his family also go through a tough period of acclimation into the white community. He has to worry all season because he finds out from the board that losing just one game will result in the termination of his position with the school. Yoast sees that the board of education and sports officials are unethically, and illegally Remember the Titans By Lisa Whitcomb Disney's latest film Remember the Titans may be rated PG, but it is a must see for people of all ages because it is an inspirational story about life that is not just for kids. The film retells a true story about the racial segregation of a public school in Virginia in 1971. Once totally white, T'C, Williams High School is forced to combine with an all-black high school. The result is a volatile mix of hatred, misunderstandings, and lack of mutual respect between the students and the parents, of both colors. As upset as the parents are about the forced segregation, the tensions in the community really mount when long-time favorite white football coach Bill Yoast, played by Will Patton, is replaced with black coach Herman Boone, played by Denzel Washington. White parents and players immediately object and resent being coached by a blackman. But Boone holds his ground and abides by his number one rule: treat everyone the same, regardless of color, and expect no less from anyone on his team. "Respect, I always demand it of myself. Iwas taught to respect another man's beliefs, his culture, his space. Whatever Imight think of him, Imust treat him with respect," Boone states during the film. Boone puts his players through rigorous and intensive football training, but the players refuse to bond. To truly unify his team, Boone makes the players sit, eat, sleep, and learn about each other until everyone on the team is like a brother. The students resist his tough ways of coaching, but it doesn't take long before racial barriers begin to crumble and out of the ruble emerges strong friendships that will last a lifetime. Assistant coach Yoast begins to see Boone as the strong leader that he really is, and he respects the honesty and integrity of the new head coach's ways. The players must convince the rest of the students at the school and all of their parents that an interracial community can work. They do this by playing strong and winning all Will Patton (center, left) and Academy Award-winner Denzel Washington (center, right) star as high school football coaches Bill Yoast and Herman Boone, respectively, who In 1971 take an Alexandria, Vir., football team and transform the players into winners.

Oliver's team had the third fastest time in the semi-finals and settled for fourth in the finals, just .45 seconds out of a medal. The Bahamas was in second place when Oliver handed off the baton. The squad's time was 2:59.23. Carl improved every year he was here, said UW-Parkside coach Lucian Rosa, who guided Oliver through his collegiate career at UWP. Rosa said you . could tell he was an Olympic-level athlete. At UWP, Oliver ran the quarter-mile in 49.21 in 1993; 47.63 in 1994; and 46.84 in 1995. He came to the University clocked at 53.3.

Inthe case where the rapist has a weapon you may have no choice but to submit. In this case do whatever it takes to survive. If you become a rape victim, get medical attention as soon as possible. Do not shower, wash, douche, or change your clothes. Important evidence can be destroyed. Then seek support for emotional trauma. If it happens to someone you know, support him or her by accompanying them to where ever they need to go whether it is the hospital, the.police station or counseling center. There are about 50 Surviving Sexual Assault Advocates over campus. If someone needed help, they could go to them or to the campus police. "There are defiantly people who can help," said Eric Roche. The Surviving Sexual Assault Advocates will be having a training session January 25. "The more advocates we have the more survivors we have," says Katie Lohre. "If it helps one person who has been a victim who never had the help then it was all worth it," said Schlecht. "Spread the word and be more safe," says Roche. UWP receives diversity award today The first-ever Wisconsin Diversity Award will be presented to UW-Parkside during a ceremony in' Madison today. The University is being honored by the state's Department of Employment Relations (DER) and the Council on Affirmative Action. UW-Parkside's comprehensive recruitment plan and what DER Secretary Peter Fox called its, "Tremendous change in diversity hiring" were reasons for the award. UW-Parkside was one of 26 UW System campuses eligible for the award. Another 27 state agencies were invited' to apply. Each campus' and agency's diversity program was reviewed for its impact on their overall diversity achievements. "Receiving this award is a major honor for UW-Parkside, and is indicative of the effort put forth by the entire campus and community," said Chancellor Jack Keating. "Every academic and administrative department has made a conscious effort to bring greater diversityto theirprograms. I think we have not only attracted a diverse workforce, we've attracted a talented workforce that also happens to be diverse." Of those hired by UWParkside from June 1, 1999 to May 31, 2000, 12 percent were African American, 6.3 percent were Hispanic while 4.1 percent had Asian backgrounds. Positions filled included faculty, classified staff, and academic staff. "We are recruiting a more diverse student population to meet the UW System's Plan 2008 goals. It's important for us to have a diverse staff," diversity guru Herbert Pitts said. "A diverse faculty and staff gives students role models and mentors they can emulate during their education." Keating added the entire community and the region worked in partnership to achieve this recognition. "We now have to gear up to improve our record. But for now, all who worked toward our goal are to be congratulated." _ ..........-- Microsoft Wlndows Mlllennlum Ed1t1onUpgrade Microsoft VlsuaJ Studio Pro 6.0 Bundle $28 Corel WordPerfect Office 2000 Standard Ed. $28 $48 Save BIG on software from the Wisconsin Integrated Software Catalog (WISC): Microsoft Office 2000 Premium Edition (8 CD set) $30 Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional Upgrade $28 Microsoft Office 98/FrontPage Bundle (,Mac) $28 Microsoft Wlndows 98 2nd Edition Upgrade $28 $28 F1IeMaker Pro Version 5 Apple Mac as 9 $38 For more info, technical support, and license deta.ils, seewww.wisc.edu/wisc WISC software is only aval1a.ble to registered students at UW-8ystem schools and Wisconsin Teabnical Colleges.

Soccer men win conferencelhost NCAAD2 plaJoff SaturdaJ The UW-Parkside men's soccer team won the Great Lake Valley Conference (GLVC)title with three tournament victories, including a 2-0 win in the championship game Sunday against Quincy College. Coach Rick Kill's' team now takes a shot at the national title starting with a home NCAA Division ITplayoff game Saturday. As has been the case all season, the Rangers relied on the goalkeeping magic of Thorn Peer, a stingy defense, and clutch goal scoring to win the title for the first time after six consecutive trips to the GLVC Final Four. Peer stopped five shots Sunday to record his NCAA Division IT record 17th shutout of the season. The whitewash lowered his nation-leading goals against average to 0.23. UW-Parkside has allowed five goals in 21 games. The clutch goal scoring on Sunday came from Casey Pawlak who tallied with help from Seth Pearson at the 15- minute mark of the title game. Adam Chwala then added an unassisted insurance goal at 44 minutes to secure the title-winning victory. Afterward, Coach Kill'S sounded relieved to have the championship. "We've gone to the well six times now. If we'd come home empty again, 1 don't know what would be next," Kill'S told the Racine Journal Times. "Tills year's team was very deserving. They played exceptionally well this weekend." What's next for the Rangers is an NCAA Division II tournament game against GLVC rival Lewis University. The game will be played Saturday, Nov. 11 starting at 1 p.m. at Wood Road Field. The Rangers had to play almost as well as they did Sunday just to reach the championship game. The march to the title began with a hard fought 2-0 win over Northern Kentucky on Wednesday, Nov. 1. Raymond James scored the winning goal with 4:05 left in the game with assists by Mike Samer and Bill Weidel. Weidel then added an insurance goal with 37 seconds left, and UW-Parkside earned a trip to Romeoville, Ill., for the GLVC Final Four. GOAL! Northern Kentucky's goalkeeper can only watch as a shot by the Ranger's Raymond James, in white second from right, hits the back of the net. The goal started UW-Parkside on the way to the GLVC title. Photo by Jeff Alley. On Saturday, Nov. 4, Dan de Sf. Aubin scored in the 47th minute and Peer was peerless in goal in a 1-0 win over top-seeded Lewis University. Then Peer, and the nation's topranked defense NCAA Division II defense4 brought the title home. "We played ferocious defense," said Kill'S. "We couldn't have done any more then ....we did." ~ ~ Secretarv of Education leads UWP Rallv for Gorellieberman ticket By Sarah Olsen "Everybody is into the business of education," said US Education Secretary Richard Riley, pictured at left, Thursday at the uw-Parkside Communication Arts Theatre. Riley visited the campus as a stop on a final campaign tour to rally support for Democrats Al Gore and Joe Lieberman. Also in attendance and speaking to support Gore / Lieberman was Bob WirCh, 22nd District State Senator. "Today we have both candidates talking about education, and both of them are indicating that certainly education is a priority" says Riley. The "Texas Miracle," according to Riley, is the "myth" Governor Bush has built his campaign on. "Believe me" said Riley, "there is no miracle happening there. All of education [performance] is up and so is Texas." Riley states that SAT scores in Texas have dropped 3 points during the period Governor Bush has been in office, while SAT scores nationally have increased by 9 points. "If [Texas] is a miracle, the country is a miracle," says Riley. Governor Bush claims that the United States is in an education recession, according to Riley. "There is not an education recession. The idea that there is some kind of slump or recession-I disagree," he said. To disprove the second "myth" of an education recession, Riley stated that every test administered nationally has shown significant increases in reading and math skills in 4th, 8th, and 12th grades with more students finishing high school and college. Riley says Al Gore is a strong believer in the federal government having a part in education. "The federal government has a very important role to have priorities that are national in nature, such as our current goal to have smaller class size for those early years when a child is learning how to read, after-school programs, instruction programs, leaving the control in the local and - state schools," said Riley. Gore proposes to increase support programs for college, increase support of work-study, support the Hope scholarship, and support tax deductions for tuition up to $10,000 per person. "1 have known Al Gore for a number of years and I tell you this: he is a _ person of good, strong character. Hehas high values. 1 am certain that you can be very proud of Al Gore as President and Joe Lieberman as VicePresident," Riley stated. -------- Ins ide 3 pNew Library Reading Room Opens Come in, relax ... and study.

ByLisaWhitcomb , ~, I ! I, This semester, the UW-Parkside library has begun to reconstruct the reference area to make that section more comfortable and home-like for the students. About three weeks ago, the Friends' Reading Room opened with the arrival of some great, overstuffed chairs, a sofa, and some end tables, which were largely financed by the Friends of the Library. Friends is a nonrrofit organization that raises funds for thelibrary to help buy needed materials that the library normally could not purchase for itself. Among other wonderful things, they also frequently bring in guest speakers to enricli students' education experience. The lounge is open to anyone during regular library hours and students are welcome to bring drinks or snacks into the area while they read and study. Dina Kaye, library liaison to Friend's of the Library said the idea for the lounge began, "Over a year ago. We decided that we wanted to rearrange and redesign the whole reference area. We are also going to be adding more computers and rearranging that section to make it more user-friendly. Wewanted to make a Barnes and Noble-type lounge where students could come and be comfortable." I Restraining order assistance t Need help in filing a restraining order? There is free help!

Other plans for the section include lowering the shelves, so students do not feel boxed in, homey things like pictures and knickknacks, and more comfortable chairs. In the spring, the library plans to have an dedication of the space and a plaque made at that time. On Nov. 15, 16, & 17 the Friends of the Library will be holding their annual book sale. The sale will run Wednesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Friday 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the upper Main Place concourse. All books cost between $1 and $1.50, and special items will be up for auction. This is how the organization raises a lot of its funds, which purchase things like the new Friends' Reading Room. UW-Parkside students are encouraged to come and browse through the selections that have been donated for the sale. Buying just one book is a great way to say thanks to the Friends of the Library for all of their support. For more information on upcoming library functions, or the Friends of the Library go to UW-Parkside's homepage and look under the library heading. UW-Parkside student Jenny Weis relaxes while stUdyingin the new Friends' of the Library Reading Room. The space is meant to give students comfortable place to read and study. The room is now open for student use with further improvements-pictures, knick-knacks and still more comfy chairs-to be added soon. The Reading Room was made possible by events likethe annual Friends' of the Librarybook sale which willtake place next week. Photo by Sarah Olsen. Who has vour name and address;» Addressing the issue of student information By Gina Ciardo "As a student at UW-Parkside, now you can build a solid credit history with your own Discover Card!" That's fantastic, but how did they get your information? How did they know that you attend UW-Parkside? Does the school make money off your directory information? "Absolutely never is a student's personal information given out to any kind of marketing organization at all," states Cynthia Jenson, the assistant director at the Office of Admissions. She adds, "I can guarantee you that the there is no list of specifics. It's public information. Directory information includes things like a student's name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, date and place of birth, major field of study, participation in activities and sports, degrees and awards received, dates of attendance, recent schools attended, and even the height and weight of athletes .. Any of this information can be obtamed by outside sources. All requests for directory information go through Tonya Hanson, assistant registrar at the Office of th.e Registrar. She req~ures that all orgaruzations and agenCIesaskmg for directory information provide their requests in writing. Hanson's requests range from high schools wanting information about alumni to the U.S. Navy. Often times, perspective employers ask for a list of students in a certain fields of study. Other times, insurance companies verify a student's academic status for purposes of "good student" discounts. Hanson has no record of a request from Discover Financial Services. If the university isn't involved, how is Discover getting this information? When Discover was initially contacted they claimed to obtain student names from mailing lists provided by three major credit bureaus, Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union. Sometimes agencies already have lists . of people on whom they want a credit history, Other times credit bureaus will generate a list for the agency. Dave Mooney, director of Public Relations at the Equifax corporate headquarters in Atlanta was the only one to return my calls. Equifax has credit files on 190 million Americans. That's virtually every adult in the country. Mooney explains that although Equifax is able to generate lists of names using zip codes and other criteria, it would be impossible for them to create a list of people who attend a specific school. He stated that a person's university might appear on a credit file under the heading "employer," but those cases are extremely rare. "The list wasn't generated from us or other credit bureaus. [Discover] came to us with a list," he assures. Since the information Discover obtained is public information, they may have received it from various sources. Discover might have called the university and requested one of the school's directory publications. They might have gone to UW-Parkside's web page and utilized the directory there. It is also possible that one of the organizations that received free information though the Office of the Registrar could have turned around and sold it to someone else. As of yet, Discover has not returned any calls regarding this. Students concerned with the utilization of their directory information can get a "Request to Withhold Student Information" form at the Student Records Office. "I really caution people not to do that," states Hanson. She is concerned students doing so will miss valuable opportunities from area employers and oilier such agencies. Once students fill .out the form, UW-Parkside needs a written statement from them releasing their information every time someone requests it. As yet, there's no way for the Office of the Registrar to distinguish who gets the information and who does not according to an individuals wishes.

By Julie Thompson Anyone who works or lives with teens will find the symposium going on today and tomorrow at UWParkside valuable and perhaps necessary in helping them detect warning signs of at risk adolescent behavior. Being held in the UW-Parkside Union Cinema Theater, it is titled Kids, Cults, Guns, Gangs, and Violence. Margaret Gename, director of Youth Programs and symposium coordinator stated, "This [program] is based upon all the violence that is happening within the community." The goal of the program is to arm parents, youth development professionals, educators, counselors, law enforcement agents, psychologists, and clergy, with the knowledge needed to identify warning signs present in adolescents at risk of partaking in violent or occult organization.

Flu Vaccine Shortage Affecting UW-Parkside Students By Julie Thompson Don't let the cycle of mild weather fool you. Although, the weather throughout southeastern Wisconsin has been mild, flu season is approaching quickly. Unfortunately, like the rest of the nation, UW-Parkslde students will feel the effects of the flu vaccine shortage. Director of Student Health and Counseling Services, Michaelina Young, has been issuing e-mails to students and faculty members with updates on the vaccine shortage. The first e-mail was issued in September, with a glimmer of hope that UW-Parkside would receive 16% of the shipment by rnrd-October; 58% in November and the balance in December. But, October has come and gone and the staff at Student Health and Counseling Services is still waiting. Since the vaccine is effective 75% of the time, those who are high-risk should receive the vaccine as soon as it is available. People who are considered high risk are those who have depressed immune systems, the elderly (65 or older), have respiratory problems, and those who have occupations that put them at risk, such as health care workers. People who are not at risk are asked to wait until the shortage is over, allowing those who need it most the opportunity to avoid complications associated with the flu. In the meantime, Michaelina Young said, "Practice habits that help to avoid catching or spreading the flu and common cold: wash your hands often, cover your mouth when you cough, and don't share food and drinks." With any luck, UW-Parkside will be receiving partial shipment soon. According to a brochure from Student Heath and Counselinf( Services, !yJJical flu symptoms include muscle aches, fever and chills, headache, dry cough, and weakness. November 9, 2000 The Ranger, University of Wisconsin-Parkside Page 6 UWP students prep for Hunger Strike Nov. 15 UW-Parkside graduating communication students will stage Hunger Strike 2000, an event to help the homeless, Wednesday, Nov. 15. The Senior Seminar class will raise money and collect non-perishable food items with all proceeds going to the Shalom Center, an organization that provides food and shelter for Kenosha area homeless people .. Hunger Strike 2000 activities include a bowling fund-raiser and an overnight sleep-out. Starting at 5 p.m., members of the UW-Parkside Faculty and Staff Bowling League and Senior Seminar class members will bowl in the Student Union. They will raise money through pledges for each pin knocked down and fhrough general donations. Non-perishable food will be collected at that time. At 9 p.m., the event moves outside. Senior Seminar students will sleep outdoors to simulate the harsh conditions that face the homeless and to raise awareness of the less fortunate. "There are hungry ,People in southeastern Wisconsin,' said Senior Seminar class member Michaela Gaines. "These people need of our help. Any support people at UWParkside and ill the community can give us is appreciated." Hunger Strike 2000 coincides with National Homeless Awareness Week. Along with food and money, Senior Seminar class members will make a personal commitment to the homeless by donating a minimum of 20 volunteer hours per person to the Shalom Center. Remarkable Computer Programmers <> train at UW-Parkside by Dan Frake Earlier this year, UW Parkside Professor of Math Don Piele and a group of four high school students from across the U.S. competed in Beijing, China at the International Olympiad on Informatics (101). They came away with a few medals and a sense of having accomplished something truly admirable. Prior to 1992, Professor Piele was the organizer of a nation-wide competition called USACO, a competition here in the u.s. for high school computer programmers. Then, in 1992, Professor Piele learned of the 101 and the rest, as they say, is history. Ever since 1992, Professor Piele has been taking his teams all over the world for 101 competitions. This year's competition, in China, turned out to be the most successful to date. You may ask, though, how do computer programmers compete? The premise of such competitions as USACO and 101 is fairly simple: Students are given problems and then tested on their ability to solve them. The only difference between them solving the problems and other less-advanced people IS that we use pencil and paper while they use computers and deal with algorithms to solve their problems. This does not include writing applications, but rather involves creating programs using codes that solve the problems, and then testing those programs with different sets of data. Speed and accuracy are the key. Sounds a little advanced, doesn't it? Well, to the participants in these competitions, it's just another day trying to make their programs just a little faster in order to gain the ed~ over other programs. The fact that the participants for these competitions are high school students is remarkable in and of itself. What's even more spectacular, however, is that this group of "the best and the brightest of our nation," according to Piele, meet right here at UWP for training once a year. Forget MIT or Stanford. The training grounds for some of the smartest kids in the U.S. is here. Every year, on-line tests and school administered tests are taken around the country to determine the top 15 programmers. Then, for one week, those 15 students are brought to UWp, all expenses paid, for an intensive training regime. Students are tested in their experience of solving problems, taught the best strategies, and given presentations on various techniques. In addition, they spend some free time playing disc golf and visiting Great America. Then, at the end of the week, the top four students are selected to accompany Professor Piele to whichever country the 101 is being held in that particular year. From there, they travel to that country for another all-expenses paid week competing against the best and the brightest of the world. USACO is a national competition headed by Professor Piele. They hold many competitions throughout the year. For more information, you can go to www.usaco.org. There, you can find information on the US team, details about its various competitions, details on the 101, and an archive of photos from the training camp and the competition in China. For additional photos, you can go to www.zing.com and select the "albums" menu, and type in ioi 2000 or usaco 2000. Again, congratulations to Professor Piele and his team for a job well-done in representing the u.s. overseas once again. j, , j Yo=areinvited to comejo;n us ana sleep undpneatl!. the stars at UW·ParlcSidei WM: Everyone " WI!Irt: Help us raise money and collect food for the Shalom Center.

Photo by Connor Buchanan DeWitt named GLUe coach of the vear By Zach Robertson Inhis 20th season as coach of the UWParkside women's cross country team, MikeDeWitt has won his second conference championship, and was named GLVCcoach of the year. DeWitt won his first conference title in 1995.He was also named coach of the year that season. After guiding his runners to a win at the conference meet, and leading them through a season that saw only one loss, the rest of the league had no problem giving him this award. . "It's nice that the other coaches in the conference recognize that we had a good year. To me, it's not an important thmg, but it's definitely an honor, and something I don't look lightly at," said DeWitt. DeWitt credited his teams success to the consistency his runners showed all year. "We had a real solid group, with everyone hitting their average time," said DeWitt. "This team has been really good in that aspect, being able to know what they're going to do in every race." With all but three members of the team back next year, DeWitt is looking for another great season from his runners next year. "That's one thing about distance running, you tend to get better every year", said DeWitt. DeWitt also hopes this will help bring more attention to UW-Parkside sports. "1 think one of the things the university is trying to do is get more of an athletic identity for the whole place. Hopefully, this shows that the university is heading in the right direction for all sports," he said. The team now heads for the nationals in Pomona, Cal., after placing fourth in the Regional meet last Saturday, in Ashland, Ohio. DeWitt felt strongly that his young team would run well at the regional meet. "It will take our best race of the year to do it," he said before the race. "Every girl has to do her part." UWP women's CC goes national With Amber Antonia leading the pack, the UW-Parkside women's cross country team is on its way to the NCAA Division II nationals in Pomona, Cal., on Saturday, Nov. 18. Coach Mike DeWitt's team secured the fourth and final berth by capturing fourth place at the regional meet in Ashland, Ohio, last Saturday. Antonia won the individual title by crossing the finish line with a time of 21:54,six seconds ahead of the second place finisher. UW-Parkside's Erin Enright finished in 17th place, exactly one minute behind Antonia, while Janna Weeden finished 20th with a time of 22:55. The Ranger men finished in eighth place with a team total of 218. Davey Place was the Rangers tor runner, finishing in 18th place with a time of 32:49. Congratulations to coach DeWitt and the UW-Parkside women's cross country team, and good luck at the nationals! . If last !h~rsday' s exhibition game IS any indication, UW-Parkside's opponents better bring their track shoes when they play the Ranger men's basketball team. Coach Jeff Rutter's team used a high-octane offense to go along with a tight defense to blast Coach Rudy's All-Stars 88-70at the De Simone Gymnasium. Led by the outside shooting of Brian Coffman, who had 17 points, the Rangers used quick strikes down the floor by Marlon Grice and Tom BeJlino to get Rudy Collum's team on its heels. That left Coffman open for repeated three-point shots. Kevin Carp chipped in 13 and Quincey Momen contributed 12 including a tli.underous slam dunk that measured on the Richter scale in downtown Kenosha. Nick Knuth cleared eight rebounds. Although Coach Rudy's team won the opening tip, that was about the only tbing that went right for them in the first half. Made up of former college players mainly from Racine, the All-Stars fell behind early and finished to half trailing UW-Parkside 44-25. After trailing by more than 30 in the second half, the All-Stars showed some pride and took advantage of the Rangers' less experienced players to get the deficit under 20 by tli.e final hom. Marcus West and Brad Kellner led Coach Rudy's with 12 points. Hayes Ford had 11 and seven rebounds. The Rangers not only showed they'll be fast but also that they'll be feisty this year. Tom BeJlino refused to be intimidated when West, formerly of Marquette University, got physical late in tli.e second half. Both players were given fouls after exchanging elbows. Coach Rutter said lie was pleased with the game, adding there were plenty of things to work on before the Rangers could consider themselves favorites for the NCAA Division II title. The next step on the road the Final Four comes on Saturday. The Rangers host an exhibition game against Las Vegas Funjet at 8 p.m. in the De Simone Gymnasium. Fans can preview the 2000-2001UWParkside women's basketball team on Saturday. Coach Paulette Stein's squad plays an exhibition against Odyssey starting at 6J.m.

Women's team reaches finals It took the biggest upset of the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) tournament to get there, but the UW-Parkside women's soccer team was at Northern Kentucky last weekend for the conference finals. The Rangers, who came in as the number seven seed, beat number two-seed SIU-Edwardsville at Edwardsville, Ill., to advance before being eliminated by Missouri-St Louis 4-1 on Saturday, Nov. 4. Getting there was definitely part of the fun. Not only did coaeli Troy Fabiano's team beat SIU-Edwardsville on their horne field, they shut them out in the process. While goalkeeper Marissa Monroe-DeVita refused to allow a goal, Byranna [urvis scored two and the team had its ticket punched for the Final Four. After eliminating UW-Parkside in Saturday's semi-finals, UMSL was then defeated by host Northern Kentucky 4-1 in Sunday's championship game. UW-Parkside ends the season with an overall record of 11 wins, six loses, and two ties. Congratulations to the women's soccer team on a great season!

All I heard was formal bickering issued by my fellow man that night. Not one single speaker could go undaunted by the accusations of another. I heard adamant opinions and progression wane on a topic that is not only rarely discussed, but is often regarded as an abhorrent subject to be spoken of at any table: the tender issue ofhomosexuality and religion. UW-Parkside's Gay and Lesbian Organization (GLO) discussion group organizer, Joey Lalor, orchestrated the gathering for the guest speaker on this topic, the Rev. Tony Larsen. At the beginning of the meeting, the Rev. Larsen declared that he would be speaking of this questionable venture through a Christian / Judaic perspective in all due respect to other religions or creeds, and that he wanted to highlight three passages in the Bible that only specified the plausibility of homosexuality. He wouldn't get that far; the ceaseless noise entreated. From the initiation of the conference, I tallied ten students to subtract that number to seven by the time of adjourning of my peers.. Of the remaining seven, including myself, I felt the wedge that was apparent from the start drive deeper between two sets of three speakers. It was a vocal war in the upstairs library with three for freedom to live with being who you are and three with restraining the questionable sin of homosexuality. The Rev. Larsen initially made his foreknowledge known by indicating that the Old Testament of the Bible had no reference to lesbianism, but indicated in Leviticus 18:22 "Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind: it is abomination." He then said the Bible said man cannot eat meat or burn incense, or paint a picture, for it would be a sin. Although, he spoke of them, he never informed on their citations in the Bible, yet I'm no one to research such a burdening topic, so I believed him and respected his ordained knowledge. The discussion barely commenced past this point when the first intrusion occurred. One of the guest students would speak and cite from the Bible on the opposition of doing something that was considered a sin, and either the reverend or other guest students would intervene with their brief, interrupting thoughts on the debatable quote. The two sides would yammer back in forth. One side would dictate the word of God as being final, and Weekend PISS ~ Good for the academic year of 2000-2001 Free bowling. pool and ping pong.

Back and forth went continuous arguing, and I do believe there were only minor instances where quiet blanketed the room. It was when someone from the free will side mentioned the possibility of genetics being the cause of homosexuality, and then after a momentary pause in this continual clamor, the two sides aptly began disputing their differences again. I was merely a spectator until I denoted the possibility of desiring something came from the hil?,pocampus in the brain, but now I can t recall the purpose I had for addressing that statement. As a society, we enter a new millennium in complete disillusionment of peace. We believe that we are all different, and that's accepted, but only people lie, because most feel they don't want to hurt anyone, or even worse, they're ignorant about some differences. We believe the mean, contemptible people confess the truth we bury deep inside, but only by speaking the truth about difficult topics will we forge progress in our society, or so we say also. I had ambivalent thoughts on what to expect from this discussion. Hopefully, everyone who attended could have learned from one another and went home with a fresh understanding, but I don't believe a single person's perception budged an inch in a new direction. Unfortunately, it was as heated a discussion as I feared. We didn't talk about homosexuality and religion, instead the two sides picked up the good book and started flinging slander at each other as if they were so omniscient about the subject, and that they were right, and anyone else was wrong in their eyes. I'm not saying they were mean to each other. It wasn't a gang war, but if we were all less civilized, I do believe I'd hear some threats and see some punches tossed before the night concluded. All I know is I lost a numerous account of respect for my fellow man that night, . and that's just sad. I go to school to learn and formally debate and coincide with peers and just plain mature into a steady progression of civility, to suddenly discover that we can revert to childishsquabbling in a matter of seconds.

Be careful not WEDS SEPT. 10 "Involvement Fair," 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Features 30 local not-forprofit agencies discussing volunteer opportunities with students Upper Main Place WEDS SEPT.10 Concert Mimmi Fulmer, soprano AT NOON Union Cinema Theater FREE! to "bum these people out' ; After excessive absences, your buddy may no longer be willing to help you out (at least not for free). ■ Skipping tends to come up in everyone 's college career at least once, and it's either a problem, or it isn't. If it is, remember that it's never as bad as it will be if you don't go back to class ASAP. Your professors aren't demons and will onJy say what you know you probably need to hear when you finally return to class from your mini-vacation. There's almost always a chance to at least get a passing grade. ■ A tip I wished I would have known when I came to Parkside was that you need your Ranger Card to print in the computer labs and that it's not just click print and go. First go to the Ranger Card office(D 111 Union-Bazaar) and put money on your card. Sept. 11-14 Foreign Film: "Rabbit-Proof Fence" Union Cinema Theater FRI SEPT. 12 Arts: ALIVE!

Chancellor Keating has an impressive list of academic accomplishments beginning with a BAin Classics/Philosophy and an MAin Philosophy from Gonzaga University. He also has an M.S. in Theology from the University of Santa Clara and a M.S. and a Ph.D, in Social' Psychology from Ohio State University. The Chancellor was a Professor of Psychology at the University of Washington in Seattle for twenty-two years. There, he served as dean for another four years and started two new campuses. From Seattle, Keating moved to Fairbanks, Alaska where he was Provost at the University of Alaska for four years. He was then approached for the position of Chancellor at UW-Parkside, which he said he had always known had a strong university system. Chancellor Keating says he has always felt very welcome at the university, and from the beginning, he and the staff have had a nice working relationship. "The biggest reason that I went to high school was to play baseball!" Upon his arrival, the Board of Regents had two mandates for the Chancellor. The first mandate was to increase enrollment at the university, and the second to build and improve local community relations with the campus. Enriching the campus community and the mandates are the Chancellor's top priorities. Although the state of Wisconsin has made cuts in the UW system's budget. Keating said, "This will make the university become even closer.' Keating stated, "My dominant goal is to build coalitions with the local community, and I feel there is a warm and growing relationship in place." The Chancellor intends to improve the relationship with the local community by following the UW-Parkside's mission statement and by continuing to serve the region. In addition, a strong cultural tie is nurtured between the community and UW-Parkside with programs like Arts: Alive, the Foreign Film Series, drama productions, athletic events, and Parkside's new fieldhouse, which has been extensively used for events like , the NCAA Fencing Championships andDivision II NCAA Wrestling Championships. The enrollment at UW-Parkside is expected to grow slightly this year, despite increases in tuition. The increase in tuition will partially offset the budget cuts, which are the largest cuts in thirty years. Keating said the budget cuts were a big surprise to him. "We are not the only state facing reductions. Some states have had cuts of twenty-five percent." Uw-Parkside has had to cut back Keating in some areas, but the Chancellor's message to students is to not be overwhelmed by the budget cuts. He expressed his concern saying, "The major cuts are at the administrative level, and everything possible is being done to save areas like science and business." It will be tougher getting things done through administration," stated Keating, "These are not the times of old when the state would pick up the cost. We need to be creative and rhink of different .ways to do things, and work together. " Despite the obsta des UWParkside will face in the future Keating expresses, "We are a campus of access. UW-Parkside will give all of its students a chance to succeed and our focus is on the quality of our graduates." The Chancellor also encourages students to join dubs and to attend lectures and athletic events because ft College is not just an academic experience, but a sodal one, too." He pointed out that students in high school tend to spend a majority of their time with peopIe like themselves, whereas in college students will have the chance to meet more diverse people. "Going to lectures and cultural events rounds out our students' education," said Keating, "Many of the dubs and organizations are connected to the majors offered by the college. Writing for the Ranger News is very connected to an aspiring writer's future goals." The Chancellor continued to say, "working for an organization is almost as important as your education because students have to gain social experience for.the future. Our students are very engaged and some cannot partidpate in activities because they have to work so hard on their degrees and to pay for their education. " As the interview came to a close, Chancellor Keating responded to one last tough question. "So, what is one thing that nobody at UW·Parkside knows about you?" With a grin, Keating replied, "The biggest reason that I went to high school was to play baseball I" .,.... ----, INVOLVEMENT FAIR Web-~b-"YI gept.10 10;30,,)11.-1 ;3ol:J)I1.

An increase of at least $250 per semester was approved this past summer after a $110 million systemwide cut. The new budget requires Parkside to eliminate 15 jobs within two years. . The good news is state statutes require finandal aid to increase as tuition increases and there are no plans for an - admission freeze or class reduction because of the budget situation. ,If yo~ ar~ thinking of applying for financial aid. it is a good idea to start early. the financial aid office will be very busy trying 10 keep up with the increase in applicants. -RNin the IOJ's IS-year history.

Once again, bigbudget flicks were released, each with its own well-oiled hype machine, and each a major disappointment, with one exception. In mid-May, the Wachowski brothers rebooted "The Matrix" generation with the release of The Matrix:Reloaded. This film may have been the most highly anticipated sequel in the history of dnerna. and although it was enjoyable, no film can deliver after such a build-up. Like most fans, was dazzled by the incredible flight sequences and special effects. While the visuals were impressive, it was as though the Wachowski brothers were jumping on their own "Now-Iook-atwhat- we-can-do-with-a-cameraand- computer." bandwagon. As for dialogue, Iwished I had a copy of the script when the plotrevealing dialogue became ... well, too plot-revealing. Overall, the film did not deliver as promised, but it was mildly entertaining. Early June brought 2 Fast 2 Furious, a sequel to the 2001 car show, The Fast and the Furious. With its tricked -out cars and impressive stunt driving, this latest installment was more of tbe same. This franchise has a number of evil MTV qualities to it, but none worse than its affect on our vehicular culture. Just between you and me, what is the longest you have gone without seeing a spoiler inappropriately projecting off the back end of a Geo? Not long, I reckon. June 27 saw the release of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. For the sake of brevity, this film can best be described as a twohour male fantasy program. Two thumbs up! Way, way up! A week later, the highly anticipated Terminator 3 hit theaters in Brendan Gleeson, Cillian Murphy and Naomie Harris in Fox Searchlight's 28 Days Later, 2003 all its franchise poisoning glory. The movie reminded me a lot of the recent Guns & Roses revival. Sure, the old front man is back (and 1 do stress old), and sure, they have got classic material to work from, but as a whole the fJIm just screams, or rather, it wheezes, "Do something else Arnold. Try politics. " The dog days of summer film watching was not all bad, though. Enter 28 Days Later, my favorite summer film. Made for a meager 8 million dollars, 28 Days Later features some of the most eerie and suspenseful film making you will see this year. In a Twilight Zone-esque opening, Jim, Ihe bike courier, wakes up from' a coma in a deserted London hospital completely oblivious to the fact a highly contagious virus, which causes anyone infected to go into a homicidal rage, has essentially wiped out all humanity. A graphic, flesh-eating buffet ensues. Honorable mention goes to the films Hulk and X2. While neither film is perfect, both at least make a decent attempt at plot and dialogue rather than simply throwing kung fu at us. This summer's blockbusters are mostly mindless entertainment, but sometimes that is all you need to kill a good afternoon. It is difficult to say why these films are so bad, but audiences may have noticed nearly all of the aforementioned films are sequels, leaving the impression that Hollywood is out of original ideas. Yet, there is hope for all the lame blockbuster films of this summer and the past. Any Mystery Science Theater fan knows that bad films become great with a little commentary, and are, more often than not, much more fun to watch that way. -RNYOUR AD HERE!

Signed,New & Nervous Dear New & Nervous: It is better that you have asked now instead of waiting until you really do need help. You could pay me to do your homework, but since you cannot afford me, you should talk to your academic advisor. Make sure he or she knows you are a 'newble. ~ so you can plan a course schedule that best fits you. Freshmen, transfer. and non-traditional students sometimes have a hard time adjusting to the rigorous academics of UW-Parkside. If you are having trouble in the classesyou are currently in, check out the Learning Assistance Center at Wyllie D175 or the Tutoring Center at Wyllie DI8D to see how they can assist you. Dear Emily, "I just started reading more lately, and I want to know if you can recommend any good books?" Signed, Loving that literature Dear Loving That Literature: You probably have enough books from your classes, right? First and foremost, those are the books that should be at the top of your reading list, but if you are still looking for something else, I would recommend asking your academic advisor if there is a "recommended reading" list for your major. These lists include fiction as well as nonfiction books, and reading them can really help you out in future courses or exams. You could also ask any of the professors in the English department what he or she would recommend. If all else fails, go with Toni Morrison; she ADVICE is a great writer whose worts you may soon be revisiting in future courses.

While the city of Racine has had cable television for over thirty years, public access to cable television has been nonexistent. Racine's cable service, TIme Warner, has produced local programming, which includes city parades and the highschool prom. Outside of Time Warner's limited programming, there is another world few people in Racine know about, full of unlimited programming ideas and public access to a cable channel, but there is much debate about whether this world will ever become a reality for Racine. Public access cable television is a television facility open to the public, in which, an average citizen may use equipment and produce his own television program free of charge, and then, view it on a cable channel. This concept is currently taking place in cities, towns. and villages around the state including Sun Prairie, West Allis, and Kenosha. Public access cable television could potentially provide an alternative to Milwaukee-based news programming by having news programming which is locally orientated. As the city of Milwaukee has grown, Milwaukee news programs have, delegated less on-air time to Racine area news. Racine residents are then forced to get local news from the radio or The Radne Journal Times. Programming on public access cable television could allow for an opportunity to "show-oft: Racine in its best light to prospective businesses and manufacturers. possibly bringing jobs to Racine. Those interested in the First Amendment, particularly the part about free speech, could use public access cable television as a means to voice their opinions. Around the country, it is common for citizens to use public access television to voice their politicai messages because the costs of advertising associated The Ran er News OPINION service and the city has built -in funding for public access television via the franchise lee tax. Racine has neglected to do this, but it seems the most viable way. ~ • Everyone in the state of Wisconsin is well aware of the state's budget woes. Racine's elected offidals are searching out new ways to pay for all the services the city provides without increasing taxes. Brown said, "The franchise fee has always gone into a general fund which supplies money for the general operation of the city. There has been a select group of people, a few aldermen and some others, who feel the city needs public access television, but ejected officials have not seen a public outcry for public access cable televiston.' Because there appears to be no public outcry for the service, the franchise fees collected have been diverted by the City Council to areas which appear to have more critical need. Mullen believes there is a problem with this scenario. She says, •Joe Johnson does not buy cable service so he is not paying the franchise fee. John • Smith does buy cable service so he is paying the franchise fee. If the franchise fee John Smith pays does not go towards public access cable service, but instead, the franchise fee is diverted to other dty services (as is the case now) because the City Council needs the money to go towards these services and doesn't want to raise taxes to do it, John Smith Racine awaits public access cable television. .. pays more towards city service vote.

Public access television could also be used to make public announcements or cover local events. Other public access television stations have citizens who have produced programming about cooking, local sports events, city tours, and children's programming. The Racine Cable Commission is an advocate for public access cable television in Racine. Serving in an advisory capacity to the mayor of Racine, Gary Becker, and the City Council, the Cable Commission's other purpose is to serve the public's best interest where public access cable television is concerned. The commfssion is an appointed body comprised of dtizens who think the time has come for public access cable television in the city of Racine. Alderman Michael Shields of the 3rd District, who chairs the Cable Commission, says, "I'm 300% in support of Racine having public access cable television. Racine is an "All American City" and needs to come out of the 1800's." According to Megan Mullen, a member of the Cable Commission and an Associate Professor in the Communication department at Uw-Parkslde, Racine residents would not have to pay extra for the privilege of having public access cable television because subscribers of cable television are already footing the bill .. Mullen says, "The Cable Commission believes the franchise fee tax collected by Time Warner is supposed to provide the funding for public access cable television. " The franchise fee is a local tax negotiated by the City Council, its lawyers. and Time Warner that is paid by cable subscribers. According to David Brown, the Interim Finance Director for the city of Racine, "In the year 2002, the city of Racine has collected $608,941.06 for franchise fees from Time Warner." Yet, until this year, there has been no funding provided for public access to the cable network. Alderman Shields explained why Racine had not given funds for this service, "In many places, the contract negotiated between the cable • Available in 6 great flavors: Berrv Blitz Berrv Banana Tropical Madness Colada Cooler Peach Passion Citrus Berrv Breeze Checkout the ReJUICEnation Station at the Wyllie Market open Mon-Thurs 7:45am-lOpm I Fri 7:45-2pm, 4-7pm I Sat-Sun 4-7pm Sponsored by Dining Service =11 'l'C1ianger ~I!e!w!!s----------~III". - Campus PoliceQ&A Beginningthe fall 2003semester, studentsandfaculty canaskthe UW-ParksidCeampusPolicedepartment questions concerning campus safety andserurity via the Ranger News.OfficerKelly Peroutkawill be answeringyour questions.Simply writedownyour questionand drop itoffattheRangerNewsofficelocated atWyllieHaILD137,duringbusiness hours or place your questions in the bin on the Ranger Ne'WS office door.TheRangerNewsis including this new feature with the Police Beat column, andcampuspoliceare hopefulthis featurewill improve UW-Parkside'scampus community, safety, and environment BY STEPHANIE HOLLAND PSYCHIC RANGER NEWS VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) People are trying to reach out to you.
