Racism conferences raise awareness for opposing nationalities Alexandria Binanti binanOO 1 @ uwp .edu Just one month after the Untangling Racism Conference held at the University of WisconsinParkside, racial segregation and prejudice seem to be at an all-time high. In the past few months countless celebrations have taken place, with the most recent focus on Asian Heritage Month. However, after attending the 18 April discussion "Knowledge is Power: Empowering Asian American through a Global Race Consciousness" with Dr. NitashaTamar Sharma, it was clear that racial prejudice was at the forefront of the conversation. After a lecture detailing multi-racial commonalities between (mainly) African Americans and Asian Americans, given by visiting Professor Dr. Sharma, from Northwestern University, the floor was opened for discussion. A UW-Parkside student started off the discussion claiming, "It's disrespectful for Asians to not want to learn about black culture." Detailing the discussion of consumer trends, and complaining that Asians blindly market to African Americans without knowing their own marketable product, the conversation quickly shifted to power struggles and racial prejudices. Whisper Jackson also stated, "Without the Civil Rights Movement, Asian Americans wouldn't have the same freedoms we fought for either." When Dr. Sharma posed a question asking whether students thought other minorities can be racist, one student from the Parkside Asian Organization claimed that, "the only [racial] group that can truly be racist are whites because they hold all the power." Although Dr. Sharma attempted to defuse the statement, the majority's reaction was a nod of approval in the audience, which is not surprising, since the given lecture was mainly demonstrative of white's historical oppressive motives in Africa and Asia. Even though Dr. Sharma spoke of the diversity in the United States' current government and mentioned the increasing global power of China and India, she did not dissuade students from a white-bashing impetus. In fact, throughout Dr. Sharma's lecture whites were largely liable for pinning Blacks and Asians against each other, for invoking religious issues between Asian countries, as well as the institution of slavery, indentured servitude, and migrant labor. Interestingly, she left out the commonly ignored historical correlation that institutional slavery was inspired by Africa's earlier establishment of slavery for its own citizens from the See Racism page 7 UW-Parkside Bids Farewell to Dr. Laura Gellott Emily Harring harri091 @ uwp .edu If a student were to walk into her office, the first thing that student would notice is that her room is a lovely shade of welcoming green. Next, the student would notice the boxes stacked with books, the shelves waiting to be packed, and the papers waiting to be filed away. After 30 years, i>*«Xaura Gellott, a history professor here at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, will retire in May. "I guess UW-Parkside chose me," Dr. Gellott stated. "1982 was another one of those years where there were way more Ph.D.'s finishing graduate school than there were jobs... I remember sending out 17 applications to schools that were advertising for jobs in European History of any sort. I argued that I could teach it whatever it was." In 1982, after sending out applications across the nation, Dr. Gellott had invitations for interviews from four campuses, UW-Parkside being one of them. After completing the interviews for each of the campuses, Dr. Gellott received a campus interview from UW-Parkside. Much like the recent history candidates this past year that had campus interviews, Dr. Gellott taught a class and had a daylong interview on campus. A week after the campus interview, Dr. Gellott got a phone call telling her she had gotten the job. The thought of retirement first came to Dr. Gellott a couple of years ago, many aspects influencing her decision to retire in May 2012. "There's a nice roundness to the number 30," she said. So, what are Dr. Gellott's plans after retirement? Her schedule will consist of reading and gardening, along with exploring some volunteer programs, among other things. The first book she has set aside to read is by historian Tony Judt's wife, Jennifer Homans, called Apollo's Angels. "I wanted to leave while I was still really enjoying it," she stated. "I didn't want to do what I have seen other people do.. .stay too long and then the ending isn't happy. So I thought, 'Let's go out on a high note.'" Many people wonder if Dr. Gellott plans to travel, but having been lucky enough to visit Europe 15 times (many of her visits correlated with her research and field), she looks forward to just staying home. She plans to visit again and see the places she has not yet visited, but for now, she'd like to "[see] what my home looks like by daylight!" "The trick will be to avoid doing too many things, which tends to be a pattern that I fall into." The combination of the 30th anniversary, turning 60, and leaving on a high note all influenced Dr. Gellott's decision to end her career at UW-Parkside. Though, undoubtedly, many students and faculty will miss her. "Professor Gellott has been a driving force in the history department and in the university for three decades. She was a model of integrity, and she was passionate about her subject matter, this institution, and most importantly, her students. I'll miss her daily counsel, but I hope she'll stay close to the university and come back often!" said Dr. Edward Schmitt, also of the History Department. Photo courtesy of UWP. Finals week preparation tips Alexandria Binanti binanOO 1 @ uwp .edu The month of May is fast approaching - a time when spring has finally decided to stay, where hopeful students eagerly look towards summer break and for some the brighter prospect of graduation. Then again, it is also a time that signifies the end of the semester - a time of high anxiety and lack of sleep. Term papers, projects, and finals seem to have snuck up on all of us students yet again while Professors like Tim Knautz have joked in lecture, "Now is the time that no one will know what sleeping means... You can recoup in the end of May." But is this good advice? According to recent studies published in the January issue of Behavioral Sleep Medicine, researchers found that students that regularly pull all-nighters to study tended to have lower GPAs than those that didn't. In fact, many students reported that studying all night was more of a social rite of passage rather than an issue of See Gellot page 5 See Finals page 6 The Ranger News April 24,2012 ^ nThe Ranq er *0 News lhviv*»roJt\ of W icr*nncin P -jrl-i-wb* ^Iiulpnl \L 900 Wood Road Kenosha, WI53141 Phone: (262) 595-2287 Fax: (262) 595-2295 E-mail: rangernews@uwp.edu Editor in Chief: Executive Editor: Emily Hairing harri091@uwp.edu Daniel Lavender laven006@uwp .edu Lead Photographer: Cedric Ray ray00007@uwp.edu Staff Reporters: Trevor Henkel henke020@ uwp .edu Alexandria Binanti binan001@uwp Bobby Johnson johns376@uwp.edu Laura Ellen Pate Bridges PatebOO 1 @ uwp .edu Steven Niemi niemi004@uwp.edu Copy Editors: Photographers: Cartoonist: Designers: Maggie Lawler lawle020@uwp .edu James Burns burns029@uwp.edu Kelsey Klink Klink003@uwp.edu Bethany MacDonald macd017@uwp.edu Carl Rollmann rollmOO 1 @uwp .edu Zak Eden edenOOO 1 @ uwp .edu Charles Reynolds reynoO 18 @uwp .edu Maggie Lawler lawle020@ uwp .edu MISSION STATEMENT: THE RANGER NEWS STR IVES TO INFORM , EDUcate, AND ENGA GE THE UW-PARKS IDE COMMUNITY BY PUBLISHING WELL-WRITTEN, ACCURATE STUDENT JOURNALISM ON A BI -WEEKLY BASIS, AS WELL AS ONLINE.

For the last time this semester, I greet you all to a new issue of The Ranger News. It's kind of unbelievable that we have a couple short weeks until finals and the end of the semester. This has certainly been an interesting school year that ultimately proved how close the community at UW-P is and how, when it comes down to it, the students bond together and use each other for support both socially and for academia purposes. May marks the end of my third year at UW-P. I can't imagine that in one short year I will graduate and leave behind a campus that has, in more ways than one, shaped me into the person I always wanted to be. I know that for a lot of students, UW-P has been a place to come into being and join organizations and gather support from fellow students that (hopefully) become life-long friends. I'm so honored that 1 get to spend my last year as Editor-in-Chief once again and hope to see some new faces join the staff in the fall. Congratulations to all the seniors graduating in May; The Ranger News wishes you success in your future endeavors, and don't forget to visit! Congratulations, as well, to the following staff members that are graduating: Alexandria Binanti, Daniel Lavender, Bobby Johnson, Steven Niemi, Charles Reynolds, Kelley miss you! Thank you to everyone who has supported The Ranger News thus far. It's been an amazing year and I'm so proud of the work my staff has put into the paper this year. • jjffft) JJ 24 April 2012 12:00 PM: Art Exhibition: Monica Halier's Veterans Book Project 12:00 PM: Art Exhibition: Senior Student Exhibition 12:00 PM: Art Exhibitions: Eileen Mueller Neill's "Imaginaries" & David Rowe's "Aesth" 12:30 PM: Women's History Month: "Bad Romance: Women's Suffrage" 3:00 PM: Women's Softball vs Saint Xavier University (Illinois) (DH) 6:00PM: Cultivate Support Group 6:30 PM: LGBTQ Out & About Week: "From GLO to Rainbows: A look at LGBT History at UW 25 April 2012 26 April 2012 12:00 , Art Exhibitions: Eileen Mueller Neill's "Imaginaries' & David Rowe's "Aesthetics and Constructions" 12:00 PM: Art Exhibition: Monica Haller's Veterans Book Project ' Ife. \ 12:00 PM: * 1 u Art Exhibition; Senior Student Exhibition 7:00 PM: 12:00 PM: Art Exhibitions: Eileen Mueller Neill's & David Rowe's "Aesth 12:00 PM: ^ g % Art Exhibition: Monica Haller's Veterans Book Project 4' ¥ 12:00 PM: Noon Concert: UW-Woodwind Ensemble & UWParkside Guitar Ensemble 12:00 PM: Art Exhibition: Senior Student Exhibition 1:00 PM: Parkside Theatre Presents: "Bus Stop" 3:00 PM: Asian Heritage Month Discussion "Asian Religions" 7:30 PM: UW-Parkside Jazz Ensemble 7: UW-Parkside Jazz Combo 7:30 PM: Parkside Theatre Presents: "Bus 27 April 2012 9:00 AM: University of Wisconsin System Symposium for Undergraduate Research 12:00 PM: Art Exhibition: Senior Student Exhibition 12:00 PM: Noon Concert: UW-Parkside Flute Ensemble & La Camerata 12:00 PM: Art Exhibitions: Eileen Mueller Neill's "Imaginaries" & David Rowe's "Aesthetics and Constructions" 12:00 PM: Art Exhibition: Monica Haller's Veterans Book Project 1:00 PM: Figure Drawing Friday 8:00 PM: Parkside Theatre Presents: "Bus Stop" Coming soon to the Ranger News: Are yoo looking for advice or answers for personal, professional, and f inancial matters?

The Ranger News Photos courtesy of UWP, Cedric Ray, and Carl Rollmann April 24,2012 The Ranger News Gellott: a great loss for the history department Dr. Gellott has many qualities that make her a fabulous professor. No one would argue with the fact that she has excellent knowledge about European History and the subjects she teaches. "She lives in her field," said Dr. Moats, another colleague of Dr. Gellott's. "The events she talks about are real to her." Dr. Moats described Dr. Gellott as efficient and professional. "She's someone who gets a lot done... [and] anything that bears her name will obviously be good." When asked what some of her good experiences or highlights of her career at UW-Parkside has been, the first thing that came to Dr. Gellott's mind was the fact that on of her students, while in Berlin on the night of 9 November 1989, brought her a piece of the Wall he had chopped off. It is also a pleasure for her to see former students succeed. "I still come away every time looking forward to the next class and 1 know that's going to be an adjustment.. .it's just starting to dawn on me now that this is wrapping up pretty soon and I'm not sure what it's going to feel like when there's not another class to teach...the students and the teaching has really been the highlight for me." Dr. Gellott's influential teaching style and the way she makes history fun to learn and listen to makes her a favorite amongst students. "Dr. Gellott happens to be one of my favorite history professors at Parkside," said history major Lisa Gagliardo. "She is very inspiring and I have always loved taking classes with her because of her eloquent teaching style. Throughout the duration of her career at UW-Parkside, Dr. Gellott has taught 12 different courses. While she has enjoyed every course for different reasons, some of her favorites are her Europe Since 1945 class and her German History class. Dr. Gellott has also done some administrative work at UW-Parkside and was the Chair of the History Department from 2003-2011. "I'm very grateful to UW-Parkside for giving me a chance [to teach]," Dr. Gellott said. The one thing Dr. Gellott wants students to take away from her classes is Si, Se Peude Alexandria Binanti binanOO 1 @ u wp .edu The one man performance of "The Stories of Cesar Chavez" traveled to the University of Wisconsin- Parkside on Wednesday, the 19th of April to deliver a performance that was raw and inspiring. Writer and actor Fred Blanco paid homage to the custom of El Teatro Campesino, to create a traveling play about the plights of the migrant farm workers through their leader, Cesar Chavez's, eyes. Professor Peggy James introduced and thanked Blanco for giving the university the opportunity to see history and politics come alive in art. "It's not easy getting the Political Science and Theater Arts department to cooperate," Peggy James joked, "but it is beautiful to see what was pulled together to make this performance happen." Written and performed by Fred Blanco, this is a story of one man's fight for the equality and dignity of all people. Cesar Chavez became a leader among Mexican-Americans when he and Dolores Huerta formed the United Farm Workers (UFW) Movement that was founded in the 1960's. Chavez fought for the rights of migrant farm laborers in the United States but his message was heard by all subjugated people regardless of ethnicity or nationality. Opening with the scene of Chavez talking with "la madre" or, the Mother Mary, while performing a spiritual fast, Fred Blanco captures the spirit of the historical movement from the get-go. Fueled by non-violence and morality it was important that spirituality was a component in Cesar's story. By many he is considered a martyr of his time. "Cesar's story needs to be told," said Blanco. "The few times his life has been written about and dramatized will never be enough. What could be more worthwhile than telling the story of a man who is so highly respected by Latinos and so worthy of being understood and respected by everyone? His legacy isn't just for Chicanos or Latinos. It is for all people." Emulating multiple characters with only a minor costume change on stage and an altered tone of voice, Fred Blanco was able to enthrall the audience and guide them through the inspiring moments of the UFW movement. And while grappling with such weighted subjects, BJfeb was still able to have light dialogue, often exclaiming "Orale" to get a joke across or creating characters that could laugh at themselves as well as make the audience chuckle. But most importantly was the inspirationd messages given for equality and progress. As Chavez has nohbly said, "We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community.. .Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and our own." After the performance a question and answer session followed which proved to be insightful. Student Christie Flesshert stated, "I haven't really studied this part of history much and it was good to know the background of [Cesar Chavez's] life that was made reference to." Keeping the Chicano movement's spirit alive, Fred Blanco travels across the United States, to perform for schools, theaters, state penitentiaries, churches, and festivals. Fred Blanco welcomes students to "like" his performance on Facebook under "The Stories of Cesar Chavez" to get updates on future tours and news clips. this: "That they understand that it's important to know and appreciate history, to know and appreciate the past.. .1 hope that by learning about an area someplace else, it helps to open people's eyes to the bigger world out there and to the fact that they too can go visit that world...I would also hope that one of the things that people is that you can really be excited about ideas and be excited about learning...that the whole world of books.. .is an interesting world to live in. The world of ideas." The loss of such an amazing professor and colleague will be felt throughout the entire university. Dr. Gellott has had an affect on students and faculty alike and will be missed by those who have come to know her. Those same people hope that retirement treats Dr. Gellott kindly and that she comes to visit! One thing is for sure: the History Department will not be the same without her. The Ranger News April 24,2012 New degree offered through UW-System Bobby Johnson Johns376@uwp.edu With a complete online program, a study in Healthcare Information has been approved and is ready for students! "A newly developed online program allows Wisconsin students the opportunity to earn a degree in one of the fastest growing professions—health information," says Ana Scryver of University Relations. The new online Bachelor of Science in Health Information Management and Technology, which some may refer to as HIMT, is offered by four University of Wisconsin campuses and coordinated by the University of Wisconsin-Extension. It is currently the only HIMT degree offered in the UW System. "This is a very timely degree. The employment outlook is extremely positive for highly skilled professionals in the health information management and technology field," said David Schejbal, dean of the UW-Extension's online and continuing education division. "The new program addresses the state's shortage of 4-year degree holders in this field." This degree is currently being offered through UW-Green Bay, UW-Parkside, UW-La Crosse, and UW-Stevens Point. The HIMT program offers two tracks to prepare students for careers in health information management and health information technology. In addition, courses are fully online, and returning students who have already completed the first 60 credits of undergraduate work or have an associate degree can complete the program in as little as two years. The curriculum consists of 20 classes (60 total credits) and covers such topics as health and medical terminology, medical ethics, information technology in healthcare, health benefit plans and providers, and leadership and change management in healthcare. The HIMT degree is certainly applicable to today's job market. It is current, effective, and complimentary to the virtual world of online degree-seeking students. _ ...Wf NOW INTERRUFT YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED WALL ADORNMINT FOR THIS MESSAGE FROM UW-F'f OWN RANGER RADIO ** LIKE MUSIC?

More accurately, the scholarship noted that even acute sleep deprivation can lead to decreased long term memory, decreased immune system responses, as well as weight gain, depression, and more anxiety. But with exams and projects looming ever closer, what is the alternative? Here are some helpful hints to help you get through the final stretch in a healthy way. 1. Make a list: Every class has some sort of final project. Making a list early enough is a perfect way to time-manage, organize, and keep the stress in perspective. The best way to get organized is to write down every single thing you need to do — like meal eating, doing laundry, getting some sleep, going to class, and studying. Getting things scheduled also opens up opportunity for asking for help, which brings me to step 2. 2. Don't be afraid to ask for help: The Tutoring and Writing Centers on campus are perfect for scheduling those final edits for your paper or understanding concepts in math or science. Major advice though— don't wait until the day before finals to ask for a tutor; it usually takes more than an hour to master a subject. You can contact the Tutoring Center or the Writing Center for an appointment at 262-595-2044 or stop in at Wyllie D180. Another great option... 3. Utilize a study group: This is not a requisite, but sometimes it is nice to work together knowing someone else is suffering the same study pains. These group sessions can be beneficial if working with similar resources and it offers valuable opportunity for peer editing- sharing is caring (as long as it's not cheating!) If these study sessions are in a peaceful/distraction free environment, such as UW-Parkside's library which extends its hours for finals week, a study group can be an asset to productivity and keeping you motivated. For those who prefer to study solo there are still great study rooms and desk areas in the library as well as designated quiet places on campus for your crunch time needs. 4. Eat and Drink Healthy: While you might not think this is the ideal time to go on the diet, the truth is eating healthy and keeping yourself hydrated with NON-caffeinated beverages will keep you alert longer and feeling better. No matter how tempting it is to forgo a meal for a vending machine bag of chips or cookies and power drinks chased with coffee, these options often are draining to the body. Fresh veggies, lean proteins, and complex carbs, accompanied by water will maintain your study mojo without the crash and burn. And finally... 5. Take breaks and that means sleep! Your brain and body need a break. Take a few minutes every couple hours of studying to stretch, take a walk, or even meditate. It refocuses those blurry eyes to move on to the next subject or refresh a thesis. And sleep—oh, the benefits of sleep! A good night's rest is far better than feeling wasted after an all-nighter. It maintains your body's health, keeps your mind clear and focused, and alleviates the intensity of anxiety. These are just a few ideas for keeping a level head during this busy time. Remember, this will all be over soon!

Email us at: rangernews@uwp.edu April 24,2012 The Ranger News PSG elections, interview with the new president Alexandria Binanti binanOO 1 @ uwp .edu Voting took place Tuesday, 3 April 2012, and Wednesday, 4 April 2012, for the elections of the new PSG leadership. Winning the majority for presidency was David Wilson, former Parliamentarian, who ran with the newly elected Jordan Theiler for vice-president. In congratulating Wilson on his recent win, The Ranger News Staff wanted to be the first to interview the new President to find out what his plans are for his forthcoming term. Kind enough to answer a few short questions, David Wilson optimistically explained his vision for increasing Parkside Student Government's involvement for the benefit of the student body: Q: David, how long have you been attending UW-Parkside, and what is your major/minor (concentration)? A: I've been attending UWParkside for almost six years now. I finished last year with a B.A. in Political Science and a Minor in Economics, and I've now returned to pursue a Major in Business Management with a concentration in Finance, though I'm also tentatively looking at the MBA program. Q: What made you want to make the move from parliamentarian to run for presidency? A: I've held many positions in PSG since my first few days as a freshman, with parliamentarian being the most recent. I believe that my holistic experience and understanding of the organization made me uniquely qualified to be President, and I was looking forward to bringing a leadership style that stressed leadership development and facilitation. I also saw a lot of promise in Jordan Theiler, our new Vice President, who I ran with during the election. Jordan has held several leadership positions and is highly intelligent; I have no doubts in his ability to continue to be a great student leader and an asset to the students of Parkside. Q: As the new President, what sort of plans do you have for your term? Most importantly, how do you think this will impact UW-Parkside's students? A: Some of the things we would like to accomplish include a shared governance implementation plan, a non-partisan Get Out The Vote (GOTV) campaign for the 2012 Presidential elections, continuing to work with the United Council of UW Students as well as the Board of Regents, and most importantly promoting an atmosphere that encourages and facilitates leadership development and continuous improvement for PSG and our student leaders. Our impact on the students may not be palpable at first, but I have no doubt that if we succeed the Parkside Student Government will be a more effective vehicle in promoting the concerns of the students and improving student life at Parkside. Finally, I would like to see more effective communication between PSG and our students. There is little information out there about our organization, and much misinformation. This stems from a historic inability or willingness to explain who we are, what we do, and why students should be concerned about PSG. Student Government has significant budgetary and statutory authority and can be a very powerful catalyst for change, but we have to do it as a team, and we need to ensure that we encourage the participation of all 5,000 of our students in the process. PSG would like to thank the students that came out to vote and encourages students to be a part of PSG's open Senate meetings that are posted in advance by the PSG office as well as by contacting the organization at psg.administrator® uwp .edu or (262) 595-2036. Racism: still a struggle Duala of the Cameroon, the Igbo and other peoples of the lower Niger, to the Kongo, Angola, etc as well as leaving out the fact that many Arab nations held as much interest in African slavery as "whites" during the 14th century. Another segregation- fueled argument was the bashing of cultural diversity initiatives in universities. Dr. Sharma notably remarked, "I personally don't believe in the idea of cultural diversity programs...we are not equal [cultures] as I stand eating my pasta invented in China for Italian day." While the lecture was an informative display of interesting global connections as well as demonstrative of continuing racial prejudices within marketing and public perception, solutions were hard to diagnose. If cultural diversity initiatives are dissuaded and counter-productive, then what is the alternative ? As Justin Irwin stated after Dr. Sharma's lecture, "When can people remember we all originated from the same place ? As Dr. Sharma pointed out there are many commonalties in different racial groups and the first step to progress is education and open dialogue. As efforts continue with UW-Parkside's Ethnic Studies program to combat the issues of campus racism, the concept of monthly forums becomes more appealing. As Chancellor Debra Ford has said, "We are a diverse campus that is proud of the diverse living and learning environment we offer the community." What better place to open such hard subjects than a university setting? Attention ! The Ranger Writing Center will be open on Monday 7 May and Tuesday 8 May.

This is because Orbitz makes most of its profits directly ~" l>o'okidI'r-. utbtt'tlian advertising . The newest trend in the online travel industry is the movement toward a meta riJtj{fel that separates looking and booking services. Companies like Kayak and Sidestep, which are fairly light on technology, allow users to sort and filter through travel options before booking with a different agency. These companies make their profits through advertising, and steal the "first click" from online travel services that actually sell travel packages. Unlike these searching sites, Web sites hosted directly by suppliers of airfare and lodging link users directly to the source of the services desired. To keep up with these developments, Orbitz is moving beyond its core strengths of searching, booking and service. They are looking to include travel inspiration, res ear c h • collaboration and even sharing among travelers. . According to Sivley, disruptive technologies cause much of the growth that occurs in a field of business. To explain the concept of a disruptive technology. he used the example of how mini-mills overtook the steel industry in the 1970's by specializing in specific grades of steel and gradually improving the quality of their product while reducing overhead costs. He then noted that the way online travel agencies have take__ tlIe _1~0&1l similar model. He also discussed how "incumbent" businesses can still _om to keep up with technology if they create separate organizations outside of their main business to research and implement new technologies. This was the case with both Orbitz, which was purchased by travel agency Cendant, as well as HP, which created an outside organization to develop ink jet printers. Now statistics show that the top e-commerce category is travel, which is more than three times larger than any other segment of online purchases. As the first online travel agency, OrbJtz was founded In 1999 by five of the lop airlines. In 2001, Orbitz was also the first online travel site to use a matrix 00 its -Website. "We invented the matrix," said Sivley. "That was one of the things that really changed online booking and made Orbitz successful." Orbitz has stayed ahead of the curve and still maintains a strong status as the second largest online site, based upon the gross income earned from travel bookings, Orbitz now includes other related sites, including Cheap TIckets, E-bookers, Rates to Go, and Orbitz for Business, Employing 1700 employees and outsourcing 1700 more jobs in customer service and technology to both foreign and domestic workers, Orbitz records revenues of $6 billion. Approximately 80 percent of that revenue comes from sales within the U.S. and 20 percent comes from foreign sales. To current UW-Parkside students. Sivley offers this advice: take educated risks, but have a plan and an exit strategy. When a decision does not work out as planned. he suggests that, "you can't get so locked into the plan that you are afraid to change your choices," Throughout much of his career, Sivley look risks that paid off, but he would not have taken them if he didn't know the possible downfalls going into the situation. For example, after graduating from UW-Parkside in 1980. Sivley decided to apply at Accenture, a large accounting finn, which offered him great value through training, but not necessarily through the compensation he received. Sivley shared how he carne ta apply for the job through a bet he made with a fellow student from UW-Parkside, who was also an accounting major, "We were going to apply to the biggest accounting firm A question of McCoin's ethics MOLLIE EGAN tree_fingers99@yahoo.com On Feb. 20, the "New York Times" newspaper came out with a story about John McCain possibly showing favoritism for a female lobbyist, Vicki Iseman, and the companies she represents. The article mentions that the communications company she represents contributed tens of thousands of dollars to McCain campaigns. The article says that McCain advisors were worried at one point that the relationship with Ms. Iseman was romantic, so they took steps to intervene with how much McCain saw the lobbyist. The New York Times reported that a former campaign adviser described being instructed to keep Ms. Iseman away from McCain at public events. McCain urged the Federal Communications Commission to uphold laws that would help the companies that Ms. Iseman represents in 1998 and 1999. The article also states that McCain introduced a bill to create tax incentives for minority ownership of stations; Ms. Iseman represented several businesses seeking such a program. The New YorkTImes also wrote in the article that McCain tried twice to advance legislation that would permit a company to control television stations in overlapping markets, an important issue for one of Ms. Iseman's representatives. McCain released a statement to the New York Times denying all reports that he has done this, and says that it's a shame that the New York Times has lowered its standards to engage in a hit and run smear campaign. Ms. Iseman also denies all reports. McCain's friends told the New York TImes that they dismiss questions about McCain's ties to lobbyists, arguing that he has too much integrity to let such personal connections influence him. FluVirus: 1, Fill Vaccine: 0 ALEX SCHUTZ maulmail@yahoo,com The current flu season has not been so kind. Many people try to avoid the flu bug by getting a flu 'hot, and that usually helps them steer clear of the virus. Unfortunately, this year's batch of shots only cover about forty percent of the raging viruses out out there, leaving the majority free to do their dirty work with the human body. The main culprit is some thunder from down under: a strain of flu virus known as Brisbane/Ill. The Australian strain was only discovered recently this winter and was not able to be "We've got issues" onpoge added to the flu shot cocktail. It can take up to eight months to make a [lu vaccine. and when something sneaks its way in after or near the end of its completion, not much can be done. Worse yet. Brisbanefl 0 is exceedingly tough to get growing in a lab. However. there is hope as a virus that is very similar La the Australian dynamo can be more easily cultured and therefore a vaccine to that strain would also be useful against Brisbane/IO. The flu viruses are grown in chicken eggs and then ~accines are derived from those samples. Vaccines protect against three types of viruses: two from the more severe Type A flu and one from the milder Type B. As the flu virus is highly adaptive, no vaccine is completely effective, but this year's was particularly ineffective. With the discovery of the BrisbaneflO strain. hopefully next years batch of flu shots will help prevent more people from being sick. According 10 the article "Feds prescribe new recipe for flu shoe. 'Every year, the flu infects up to 20 percent of the population. hospitalizes 200,000 people and kill 36.000'. Information was taken from the article "Feds prescribe new recipe for fiu shot" by U1UrJn Neergaard found on news.yahoo. com. j 1 J I 1 f March 4, 2008 The Ranger News 2 900 Wood Road Kenosha,VVl53141 Phone:(262)595.2287 Fax: (262) 595-2295 Ads: uwp_ods@yahoo.com E-mail: rangemews@uwp.edu ditor in Chi,f Quita and Zak took some amazing photos, and since we were unable to get reporters to these events these two photographers used their cameras to tell the story.

As' an example of this. there's two photo captions in this issue: Parkside's Next Top Model and the Career Connection. Both I'm not sure if this semester has been going so well because of the amount of new staff members we have, because there's more going on on-campus (and off-campus, for that matter), or something entirely different, but I never thought [' d see the day where we would have to sort through the articles to decide what goes in what issue.

Hahm Co-Assistant Editor L ast week the Peer Health Group volun- teered to screen stu- dents for depression. The National Screening Day was on October 11, but the group felt that this time of the year would be better for students and faculty. The screening process starts out with a simple ques- tionnaire that then gets ana- lyzed by a counselor. The purpose of having a table set up is to outreach a variety of different students. There were not as many that requested an analysis or information this year, but Marcy Hufendick allocated this to the placement of the table. The Peer Health Group helps students understand their reactions to an unfortu- nate event or possibly find out what event could have led to depression. The coun- selors are experienced to help Depression is the common cold of Psychology label the problem correctly and then give the person the proper course of action to treat the dis- ease. While the counselors can not give out medication or diag- nosis, they can send a referral for treatment FROM A LARGER ASSOCIATION. Since the September 11 attack, more students have sought out help from the Counseling Center. Students seem to be more willing to explain their feeling of fear and vulnerability. The Counseling Center is staffed with seven stu- dents with a range of age and two staff members, Vicki Wahler and Marcy Hufendick. Marcy is also the Program Manager and Senior Counselor Coordinator. For more information on depression, visit the Counseling Center located behind Talent Hall. They have pamphlets for those that want to learn more or counselors available to talk.

Gender stereotypes presentation brings awareness By Rosie Veziridis Reporter U w-parkside's Psychology depart- ment presented "Gender Stereotypes: Alive and Unwell." Professor Sylvia Beyer spoke to a group of willing students to help make them aware of gender stereotypes. It was held on November 28, 2001, at noon in Molinaro 0137. The professor discussed two studies: one of them was Gender Stereotypes in majors (which was done here at Parkside) and the other in Occupations. Stereotype, as defined in Webster's Dictionary, is "a conventional opinion or belief." It exists in our society today and espe- cially in the workforce. It is also present on a college cam- pus. As far as majors, the ones deemed as "female" occupa- tions were Psychology, Art, English, Communication, Biology, Business, and Music. Mainly "male" dominating occupations are 'Political Science, History, Chemistry, Math, and Computer Science. A startling statistic was that fifty-six percent of women received a Bachelor's Degree, whereas only forty- four percent of men receive theirs. "We're not aware of women's needs," stated Professor Beyer during the presentation, and recalled a story, which took place eight years ago. In Molinaro hall, a woman's restroom never existed; only a male's restroom was available. This was due to the fact that most business, psychology, and computer science classes were given here, and that they were typically male dominated. So the men saw no need to add a women's restroom. It was eventually changed as we see it today. Professor Beyer was born in Austria, but was raised and attended college in southwest Germany. She attended the University of Trubingen where she attained her Bachelor's Degree. After her Bachelor's Degree, she relocated to the states and attended the University of Oregon where it took her another six years to get her Ph.D. With a total of ten years in school, she finally settled into a job with UW-Parkside, and has been with the university for eleven years. In a personal interview with the professor, she commented on her recent development. "What I really enjoy now is that I have this large grant, which allows me to do more research. I can teach and research." The grant she received is from the National Science Foundation. A freshman, Jackie Schroeder, commented on why she attended the presentation. "I came because I'm taking Women's Studies 110 and we're doing a group project. And I'm interested in 1earning about stereotypes." Professor Beyer concluded her presentation aby stating, "Gender stereotypes are alive and unwell." �-----.:....-_-------=--=-----=-------=~=--- H THING= Arts Theatre, 7:30 p.m., tickets: $5/3 for Chocolate,"by Laura Esquivel, Union 202, 3 p.m., free, open To anyone who has read the book, Continuing Events Through December 13 December 14 • Art Exhibition: Amy Norgaard & Greg Porcaro, alumni exhibition, nOUIS: Monday I Thursday: 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Tuesday /WednJ'sday: 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., free • Men's basketball vs. Winona State, SAC, 7 p.m December 8 • Women's basketball vs. SlU-Edwardsville 1 p.m., SAC • Concert: Kerri ~her.wood, adult contemporary piano, Comrnurucatiun Arts Theatre, 7:30 p.m, tickets: $12 Daily events: • Men's basketball vs. SlU-Edwardsville 3:15 p.m., SAC December 6 December 15 • Play: The Cripple of Inishmaan.

The class came to the solution that they would do a number of events that would ulti- mately help the Shalom Homeless Shelter. They broke off into multiple groups and went to work organizing and planning for the big events. The goals of Senior Seminar class were focused around a food and clothing drive, a marketing group, a volunteer group, and an end of the year bash group. Tlie food and clothing drive was held on campus for one week and delivered all of the proceeds to the Shalom Ranger. It was the responsibility of this group to get the word out about the Senior Seminar Classes accomplishments. The volunteer group held a day to recruit possible students that were interested in vo l u n t e e ri n g . They also gave a presentation to a freshman univer- sity seminar class on the ben- efits of partaking in the vol- unteer process. Anyone that committed to volunteer at least once within this semes- ter will gain free access to our end of the year bash. The end of the year bash group organized all of the necessary plans to celebrate and collectdonations of food or money for the Shalom Helping out at the Inns Program for the homeless shelter are (left to right): Kirsten Ziarek, Linda Muffler, Kenny Merrit, Jamie Jenjak and Beth Aiello Center. Many of the students took their turn at the table to encourage others to donate for the needy. The group exceeded their goals with the number of boxes of food and clothing that they had intend- ed on collecting. The marketing group was in charge of contactinghome- town newspapers, Racine and Kenosha Journals, and The We all love Lucy By Deborah G. Hahm Co-Assistant Editor E quipped with a charis- matic smile, blazing red hair and a comedic per- sonality, Lucille Ball entered into stardom. Most know her from the "I Love Lucy" show also starring her husband. Marking its 50th-anruversary, the "I Love Lucy" show aired for a two hour special November II, zooi. "I Love Lucy" went on the air at 9/m on October 15, 1951,an has never been off since. The show was base~ on the CBS radio sh~~ My Favorite Husband With Lucille Ball as the wife. CBS decided to make the show into a television series starrIng Ball. She agreed but onll: under the conditions that Desi Arnaz her real life husband, would play her husband in the series. CBS did not ~ the viewers would find e couple believable. Ball add Arnaz went on tour forvall e- viIlesto prove to them that the couple· would work well together and be believed. The public loved the show and CBS loved the pilot the two produced. Many of the <\rnaz's vaudeville acts were incorporated into the show. Vivian Vance and William Frawley, Ethel and Fred Mertz joined to make the series a four- some. Very fewepisodes do not show one or both of these characters. Ethel is Lucy's best friend as well as her co-conspirator,while Fred and Ricky often discuss the peculiarities of women and their wives. Fred and Ethel play the roles of fictional,TV- type, neighborly friends with a twist of a realisticmarriage. Desi's character, Ricky Ricardo, is a bongo-beating, singing bandleader with a thick Cuban accent. Many of the mishaps on the show are owed to his inaudible dialect. In fact, Lucy was con- fused when Ricky pro- posed toher, wondering if it was a proposal for marriage or a night at the movies. His most used line was "What's amatter which you? You crazy sum-fing?" Fights with Lucy after finding out what mischief she's been up to often led him to yell in his native tongue, which prompt- ed Lucy's, "Stop jabbering at me!!" The cast of the "I Love Lucy" show: Lucllle_Ball, Vivian Vance, William Frawley and Cui Amaz. Center. This included the plan- ning of where and when the basil would take place. They also had to book a DJ to enter- tain at the bash. Finally, they designed t-shirts that the Senior Seminar Class will be wearing the day of and at the bash. For all who would like to show support and have a good time feel free to stop by Spades on November 29tll after 7:00 P.M. The cost for this fun-filled night is $4.00 at the door or $2.00with a canned food item. All students that agreed to vol- unteer are granted free entry. You must be 21 years old to enter. As a result of being involved with the homeless, the class has made some noticeable progress in the community. Giving their time has resulted in homeless individuals with- new winter clothes, food for the holidays, and a new outlook on lifeitself. • LucilleBallseemed to many of her friends to be playing the role ofherself. Shewas a sillywoman that often talked "Donald Duck" and made funny faces.Shestud- ied drama with Bette Davis as a classmate. But after a year her acting coach told her she was not talented enough to make it in act- ing. She started in commercials but soon starred in movies and radio leading her into the "I Love Lucy" show. The show aired for six seasons totaling 179 episodes. Each episode started with a plausible situation which would be thrown awry with exaggerated absurdi- ty. Lucy was starched, frozen, stuffed with chocolate,locked in a trunk and pummeled with grapes. The show took off with the public and soon 44 million viewers tuned in to watch and arguing odd couple and their two best friends, a crazy Cuban and his funny-faced wife. Theshow stillairs on TVLand and a listing of episodes can be found on the Internet. No matter what age or interests, "I Love Lucy" can be loved by all. So tape all of them and sit down with a bag of potato chips, a box of chocolate and enjoy a night free of homework and full of laughs.

'" involved in the Parkside Student Bruce Rocco Government Association (PSGA) (anarti<t'srmdering) as an dedicated and active member, will be taking a temporary leave of absence. During Rocco's two year involvement with this organization he has made great efforts in improving PSGA along with the entire student body. Until the recent PSGA meeting, held Friday, Jan. 20, he was SUFAC liaison to both the Parkside Child Care Center an the Ranger News. In the time since he was elected as senator in the spring of 1992, Bruce has worked hard at constantly getting resolutions and policies passed. One of the programs he worked hardest on was the safewalk program which began in the spring of 1993 after a rape occurred on Wood Road. With Bruce Rocco's resolution and footwork, along with great efforts from Marlene Schlecht, UW- Parks ide police officer, the program made it off the ground. Bruce recalls that it was the first time PSGA had ever established a working relationship between the Assistant Chancellor of Student Affairs and the UW-Parkside Police Department. "It was the first piece of legislature," Rocco recalled, "that I have ever seen passed with acclimation and signed by the President [of PSGAj that day." Bruce feels that his greatest accomplishment with PSGA has yet to happen, but he said, "The next greatest accomplishment is that [ have developed a fine working relationship with the finest bunch of professionals that I have ever met in my life." Other activities Bruce Rocco and the entire student government have been strongly involved with include budget cuts, United Council, and trying to get more people involved In public elections in both Racine and Kenosha counties and on the national scene. Rocco also held the position of Vice President of PSGA from December, 1993 through April I, 1994. Science Grants Awarded by Brian Matsen News Writer Due to the persistent efforts of Joseph Balsano, the University of Wisconsin-Parks ide has been awarded two federal grants worth nearly $90,000. Balsano, a professor of biological sciences, is a man whose goal is to see more science taught in classrooms. Science Fellows I, one of Balsano's programs. was awarded $40,807 and has been an on-going project for the past ten years. Every year for the past decade, Bals ano has 'received funding from outside sources such as school districts and various programs. "I've been very fortunate," he commented. Originally, the federal government funded his efforts under the National Science FOundation, then also from the U.S. Department of Education. This department houses the Wisconsin Dwight D. Eisenhower Mathematics and Science Act. Joseph Balsano These grants are not handed or awarded to institutions, but must be applied for by a written proposal. The federal government gives money to the UW-system, but members of a board don't "allocate it to anyone," he stated. Balsano stated grants are competitive and one must propose ideas and goals that address a need or needs to students. That's why Balsano consulted school districts and 'administrations, gathenng ideas before writing his proposal. "You wouldn't want to give away money for anything," he commented. Balsano feels he IS and has been addressing a need - Science Fellows I, and now Science Fellows II and Ill. Balsano said, "What we're doing is quite popular," referring to Science Fellows 1: A program to Improve Science Education in the Elementary School. Other organizations which once criticized Balsano's work are now beginning to model his program The first objective of this two-fold 'strategy is to reduce the teacher's anxiety to teach basic scientific facts, information. and concepts. The following goal is to provide these teachers with materials that will encourage hands-on-science. This will apply practical knowledge to the hands-on- experience that should make learning fun. Children want to do things. they have a short- attention span. "Lectures are no-no," he said. "The whole idea [of this program] is to ge more science taught." and h sees this as the way t accomplish it. by Brian Matsen News Writer Starting immediately, you'd be wrong if you referred to the building that houses the library, Main Place, and a number of administrative offices as The Wyllie Library Learning Center. Chancellor Eleanor J. Smith explained that a name change from the Wyllie Library Learning Center (WLLC) to Wyllie Hall is part of an overall project. Smith said the signs on campus are "a little piece of the project." Assistant Chancellor William W. Streeter, who works with administration and fiscal affairs, is responsible for exploring the ideas of where to post new signs on 1- 94, highways, and local roads around the community. He's working with an outside consultant to map out the best locations for these new signs. The Chancellor wants the university to be user-friendly, and she sees the simplification of Wyllie Library Learning Center to Wyllie Hall-as a good beginning for the college and the community. The name change is to help establish consistency with the other three halls (Molinaro, Greenquist, and Tallent), and to help prevent further confusion about what services are located in that facility. In the former Wyllie Library Learning Center, keying in on the word "library", one could mistake the building as just where the library is, and if he or she is looking for a certain room, he or she might assume that it would be in the library. "It assumes that everything is in the library." said the Chancellor. She wants students, faculty. and guests to be able to find the appropriate rooms and services without hassles. Again, she wants Wyllie Hall to be user-friendly. Harriet Wyllie, widow to founding Chancellor Irvin G. Wyllie, did not mind the name- change and said, ''I'm just glad they're keeping the [Wyllie] name." Originally, the university was going to name the building "Wy llie Center," which Mrs. Wyllie wishes they would have kept. The building was named Wyllie Library Learning Center in 1972 after Chancellor Wyllie who died in October of 1974. Racism lecture Jan.31 "Campus Racism Today: Blueprint for Uprooting Discrimination in America's College" will be discussed by political activist and historian Manning Marable during a free lecture at the University of Wisconsin-Parks ide on Tuesday, Jan. 31. The lecture will be held at 7 p.m. in Room 104 of the UW- Parkside Union, located at the far north end of the main campus complex. The lecture is sponsored by the university's Black History Month Committee and the Parkside Activities Board. Marable is professor of history and political science and director Columbia University's Institute for Research in African American Studies. He is the author of several books including "Beyond Black and White: Historical and Political Essays," "African-American Studies: Critical Perspectives of the Black Experience" and "Race, Reform and Rebellion: The second Reconstruction in Black America." Marable also is author of the syndicated newspaper column "Along the Color Line," published in more than 250 newspapers and broadcast by approximately 60 radio stations. A sharp critic of all forms of discrimination and injustice, Marable is a strong advocate of civil rites, affirmative action and democratic empowerment for the poor and minorities. ._page 3 ...page 5 •••page 7 Snow Clearing Policy Usteci When snow begins to fall on the parking lots and sidewalks of campus, a team from the grounds crew, police, and housing will work to keep thoroughfares clear. The following are answers 10 frequently asked questions about snow removal: -Grounds crew and police officers make recommendations to the director of University Police and the grounds supervisor on when to assemble a snow-removal crew. Typically, 3 inches of snowfall prompts snow removal efforts. But, other conditions - a thin film of ice or blowing snow - may warrant snow-removal operations. -For an average snowfall of 3-6 inches, crews are called in between 3 and 5 am. For early evening snows, plow operators may be called in to keep fire lanes open until a full removal gets underway as the snowfall winds down. -A jeep is assigned to clear and salt all campus sidewalks and large entrance ways.

What is Campus Secure? Campus Secure provides each student, faculty, and staff member who subscribes to the system with a tiny personal radio transmitter which is carried on a keychain or necklace. When a -button on the transmitter is held down for 3/4 of a second. a personally coded signal for help is sent to the Campus Police Department. The signal pinpoints the location of the sender which alerts police and causes a campus map with a locator dot to be displayed on one of the two screens. On the other screen, a picture of the sender with a personal profile and emergency medical information is shown. Police can dispatch help within seconds, directly to the sender's location. Outdoor alarm boxes flash an emergency light to frighten away would-be attackers and guide the way for police. Indoors, silent receivers forward the personal alarm signal. Campus Secure could be available via a semester subscription basis. Campus secur:.e is a completely new approach to improving personal security anywhere on campus. In your hands, you can summon help in seconds, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Please return surveys by mail or in person to Campus police, located in Tallent Hall, or to the Ranger News office, next to the Coffee Shoppe in Wyllie Hall. Extended Shuttle Bus Hours The University Police and public safety is conducting a survey to determine if there is a need and interest to extend the hours of service of the Shuttle Bus. It was suggested by the Sexual Assault Prevention Task Force that the Shuttle Bus extend operation to 10:30 pm. This service would be one of three Escort Services available. on the Parkside Campus during the evening hours. The University Police provides escorts as well as the Campus Safewalk Program. A questionnaire has been provided to canvas the University population- students, faculty, and staff. The questions range for usage of the shuttle bus, usage of parking lots, and selected methods of paying for this extended shuttle bus service. • Input from the University population is greatly needed so UPPS may provide the services that are not only needed, but desired by those who UPPS serves. The University Police and Public Safety'S goal is to provide a safe and worry free campus, allowing University patrons to enjoy the campus and to participate in scholastic and community activities without concern for personal safety.

It Iake$ more than a month to rec- ognizethe goals and achieve- me~ of former and present African-American leaders." Steven Moore, Editor-in-Chief of the Ranger Newspaper and a Mark Lewis Parkside Senior, felt that "Black History Month is a wonderful glorious occasion to celebrat~ the lives of African-Americans. We have come a long way, but the fight is not over. We still have people who make judgments based upon skin color. We sin- cerely say we need diversity, but we lack action and initiative. We need to move towards a color-blind society-where all of us can join hands in racial har- mony." Kevin Williams, Sports Editor of the Ranger News and a senior at Parkside, said that "Black History Month is an opportunity to recognize our hardships and struggles of the past It is a time for all of us to look forward to bigger and better triumphs in the future that lies ahead. However, it is really too bad that it is only for one month." Twyla Beets, a Parkside stu- dent said that "Black History Sheila Egerson Month is a time when black Americans are recognized for their outstanding achievements, and to reflect on the history that has brought us thus far." When asked for the meaning of Black History Month, Cassandra Chatman felt that it was "a time to reflect on the past struggles, and a time to let us know that our struggles are not yet over." Desiree N. Franklin, a Parkside student, believed that "the trail- blazers lett behind a burning pur- pose, which has become our pur- pose. During Black History Month, we must express the beauty of the nature of our histo- ry. At this time, it is.the mission of all concerned to spread to every person and beyond the greatness of our heritage and the importance of our history." "Finally," Franklin continued, "Black History Month is not just a time of entertainment to me, but a time of entertainment to the contributions of our great histori- cal achievements." Marcus N. Lewis, Parkside stu- dent, stated that Black History Month "gives me a chance to realize past achievements and CassandrnChatman drawbacks, because through these remembrances you learn more about yourself. It instills in me a sense of pride, and tells me that nothing can keep me down." When asked for her opinion, Daniella Bigham stated that "Black History Month is a time where black people get together and celebrate the historical tri- umphs of our people, and although it only lasts a month, we must make it every day." Some of these perceptions and thoughts have seen the light in other guises. Some of the admin- istrators felt that Black History Month was necessary and con- tributed much to the integration of all achievement into public acknowledgment. But upon deeper inspection, it was far too short a time to celebrate the his- torical achievements and person- al strivings of the African- American people. However/ through all the opinions and ideas, there exists a faith in the ultimate equality of historical acknowledgment. Sometimes it is a faith in cultural interaction, sometimes a faith in social reform, sometimes a hope for the recognition of African- Americans who contributed important things to the country. But whichever it is, the meaning is constantly clear: that one day, all great peo- ple, regardless of race, will be acknowledged and celebrated together in the collective annals of American history. nonreua Bigham Carol Girsh enjoys reading and visiting her friends.

I by Mike Schaefer This article is the second of a three part series covering changes in the methods by which faculty are assessed and evaluated. To be able to con- sider intelligently the current standards and proposed changes, it would be wise to consider first what goes into being a professor. Looking over the mass of notes written during interviews with professors and remember- ing countless impressions received during those inter- views, I don't believe that J have the ability to convey to the reader in the usual journal- istic style what it is that makes a professor. If I were to simply relay to you that '1< amount of time was spent on v" you would miss the enormity of the commitments that professors make. Each interview with a professor was a brief account of an iridividusl's story, every page of notes a blurry snapshot of a professor's life. . In the limited space that Iol- Jaws is an incomplete summa- tion of all of the stories, the notes and the impressions pro- fessors shared in their inter- views with me, , I You have finally completed your thesis, a three or four hun- dred page manuscript if you're in the humanities, or a ten to twenty page report on the results of thousands of hours spent in the lab and at a com- puter. Whatever your area, business, archaeology, biology, who cares, you've done it, you've received your doctorate. And during your graduate stud- ies, when you had those labs or one hundred level courses to teach, you discovered that, "This is what I want to do. I want to teach." So, now you've got your doctorate, applied to several universities, competed with as many as four hundred other applicants and have final- ly been accepted for tenure track at a small university somewhere in Wisconsin. If circumstances permit, you've been able to move into the area, find an apartment and get settled in with a month to spare before your first semester as a university professor begins. During this brief calm before the storm you meet some of the other faculty, familiarize your- 1 II self with the campus, and are possibly assigned a faculty guardian angel, someone who's been around long enough to be able to know, among other things, whe~e to kick the copy machine when it acts up. In interviews before you were hired, you were told how many credit hours you would be expected to carry every sernes- ter,(at your particular school nine are required), and what courses you would be teaching. Now that you're here, you have received or tracked down the materials and various texts required for the course, and for the next couple of weeks before the session begins you study them and develop course syl- labi from them. You relate them to things you might know that aren't covered in the texts, you decide what to keep and what to discard, you jot down ideas for test problems as they come to mind, you wonder if the stu- dents will already know some- thing or not. Holed up in your apartment, you immerse your- self in your work, late into the night. Maybe, however, your cir- cumstances didn't permit you a month long grace period before the beginning of the semester to prepare. Maybe you arrive two days before classes begin and the apartment you had arranged to rent you find rented to some- one else. You commandeer a cot, sleep in your office, shower in the phy ed building and cook Dinty Moore on a hot plate for two weeks because you're so committed to being prepared for the classes you teach you don't have time to look for an apartment. . The f rst few weeks of classes come and go, you find you need two or three hours to pre- pare for every hour of class you teach. At least, you do if you're to feel comfortable with your working knowledge of the material. You might have tried to skimp a few times, gotten up late, whatever,.and felt like the biggest fool as you stammered througb the lecture, lost, not quite remembering what point it was you were trying to make. Anyway, you find ways to make the necessary time available, your schedule settles in, you eventually find a routine. Now it's time to start thinking about your research. You probably had a project in mind long before you were accepted at the university. You might even have had some pro- ject started before you were accepted. Most likely, you were asked more than once what your research plans were before you were hired. What might your research project be? It could be some- thing as fascinating as using theoretical chemistry to map charges on a sphere, isolating a toxin in a plant disease, delving into some mystery of eighteenth century womyn writers, or tracking the social implications of replacing human workers with robots on assembly lines. You don't have to limit yourself to just one project either. You might have four separate pro- jects going, all of them related to your field, each an entity of its own, attention to them decided by whichever one pre- sented an idea while you were in the shower this morning. Whatever your research pro- ject is, its just as important to your career as your teaching ability. Universities are places of discovery, for professors as well as students. The job of a university is not just to dissemi- nate information to 'students, although that may be the pri- mary function. Universities, th rough the research that they help house and support, add to and organize an immense mass of knowledge that never stops growing. So, how you function as a researcher is a big factor in your tenure-track and, some- day, your tenure review. The way you prove the validi- ty of your research is by being published. In magazines, in journals, someday maybe even a book. So as your research progresses, you're able to take various pieces as they present themselves and mold them into something readable. Then you send your product out to edi- tors. And you wait. Who knows? You might get pub- lished, you might not. A paper may be accepted by a journal but you might not see it in print for a year because the editor is waiting until he/she can accrue enough papers relating to a par- ticular topic. So your work sits in a file somewhere. Or you might find your paper in your mailbox some afternoon, returned with a letter stating that your paper "is not what we are looking for at this time. But please feel free to submit other work in the future." This assumes that your research resulted in a paper or two in the first place. You might not have this happen often, burif your research is of a theoretical nature, as is some- times the case in the sciences, you might spend thousands of hours on some piece of work, grind your brain to a nub at the top of you r spi ne on math equations for systems in five dimensions or sub-atomic parti- cles that no one is really sure exist and in the final proof of your equations, no matter how many times you check your work or have other people look at your system, it just doesn't work. Poof. Gone. Although a paper to explain why your idea doesn't work might be valuable in steering someone else away from vourmlstake, still, the great idea you thought you had ...wasn't. So, time marches on. You try to publish at least one paper a year. You read the journals to keep up with what others are doing in your field. Publishers send you three or four text- books to edit or review every year, hoping to convince you to decide to use one as material in one of your classes. You try to attend a few conferences every year, hopefully presenting a paper at each one. If you're "lucky" you might even have the opportunity to chair a ses- sion at one of the conferences. You might find that your area of research is the type of thing a few agencies or businesses or foundations are into, so you write up some grant proposals detailing your work and why the people with the money might find your work valuable . And the one thing that remains constant is that you teach. With all of the other things you are expected to do, your biggest commitment by far is to your students.

I ~ \ I H ) l I l ) l \ I l ) t z JUST WHAT DO PROFESSORS DO, ANYWAY? by Mike Schaefer This article is the second of a three part series covering changes in the methods by which faculty are assessed and evaluated. To be able to con- sider intelligently the current standards and proposed changes, it would be wise to consider first what goes into being a professor. Looking over the mass of notes written during interviews with professors and remember- ing countless impressions received during those inter- views, I don't believe that I have the ability to convey to the reader in the usual journal- istic style what it is that makes a professor. If I were to simply relay to you that 11 X amount of time was spent on y 11 you would miss the enormity of the commitments that professors make. Each interview with a professor was a brief account of an individual's story, every page of notes a blurry snapshot of a professor's life. . In the limited space that fol- lows is an incomplete summa- tion of all of the stories, the notes and the impressions pro- fessors shared in their inter- views with me. You have finally completed your thesis, a three or four hun- dred page manuscript if you're in the humanities, or a ten to twenty page report on the results of thousands of hours spent in the lab and at a com- puter. Whatever your area, business, archaeology, biology, who cares, you've done it, you've received your doctorate. And during your graduate stud- ies, when you had those labs or one hundred level courses to teach, you discovered that, "This is what I want to do. I want to teach." So, now you've got your doctorate, applied to several universities, competed with as many as four hundred other applicants and have final- ly been accepted for tenure track at a small university somewhere in Wisconsin. If circumstances permit, you've been able to move into the area, find an apartment and get settled in with a month to spare before your first semester as a university professor begins. During this brief calm before the storm you meet some of the other faculty, familiarize your- self with the campus, and are possibly assigned a faculty guardian angel, someone who's been around long enough to be able to kno:N, among other things, where to kick the copy machine when it acts up. In interviews before you were hired, you were told how many credit hours you would be expected to carry every semes- ter ,(at your particular school nine are required), and what courses you would be teaching. Now that you're here, you have received or tracked down the materials and various texts required for the course, and for the next couple of weeks before the session begins you study them and develop course syl- labi from them. You relate them to things you might know that aren't covered in the texts, you decide what to keep and what to discard, you jot down ideas for test problems as they come to mind, you wonder if the stu- dents will already know some- thing or not. Holed up in your apartment, you immerse your- self in your work, late into the night. Maybe, however, your cir- cumstances didn't permit you a month long grace period before the beginning of the semester to prepare. Maybe you arrive two days before classes begin and the apartment you had arranged to rent you find rented to some- one else. You commandeer a cot, sleep in your office, shower in the phy ed building and cook Dinty Moore on a hot plate for two weeks because you're so committed to being prepared for the classes you teach you don't have time to look for an apartment. The first few weeks of classes come and go, you find you need two or three hours to pre- pare for every hour of class you teach. At least, you do if you're to feel comfortable with your working knowledge of the material. You might have tried to skimp a few times, gotten up late, whatever, and felt like the biggest fool as you stammered through the lecture, lost, not quite remembering what point it was you were trying to make. Anyway, you find ways to make the necessary time available, your schedule settles in, you eventually find a routine. Now it's time to start thinking about your research. You probably had a project in mind long before you were accepted at the university. You might even have had some pro- ject started before you were accepted. Most likely, you were asked more than once what your research plans were before you were hired. What might your research project be? It could be some- thing as fascinating as using theoretical chemistry to map charges on a sphere, isolating a toxin in a plant disease, delving into some mystery of eighteenth century womyn writers, or tracking the social implications · of replacing human workers with robots on assembly lines. You don't have to limit yourself to just one project either. You might have four separate pro- jects going, all of them related to your field, each an entity of its own, attention to them decided by whichever one pre- sented an idea while you were in the shower this morning. Whatever your research pro- ject is, its just as important to your career as your teaching ability. Universities are places of discovery, for professors as well as students. The job of a university is not just to dissemi- nate information to students, although that may be the pri - mary function . Universities, through the research that they help house and support, add to and organize an immense mass of knowledge that never stops grow ing . So, how you function as a researcher is a big factor in your tenure-track and, some- day, your tenure review. The way you prove the validi- ty of your research is by being published. In magazines, in journals, someday maybe even a book. So as your research progresses, you're able to take various pieces as they present themselves and mold them into something readable . Then you send your product out to edi- tors. And you wait. Who knows? You might get pub- lished, you might not. A paper may be accepted by a journal but you might not see it in print for a year because the editor is waiting until he/she can accrue enough papers relating to a par- ticular topic. So your work sits in a file somewhere. Or you might find your paper in your mailbox some afternoon, returned with a letter stating that your paper "is not what we are looking for at this time. But please feel free to submit other work in tbe future." This assumes that your research resulted in a paper or two in the first place. You might not have this happen often, but if your research is of a theoretical nature, as is some- times the case in the sciences, you might spend thousands of hours on some piece of work, grind your brain to a nub at the top of your spine on math equations for systems in five dimensions or sub-atomic parti- cles that no one is really sure exist and in the final proof of your equations, no matter how many times you check your work or have other people look at your system, it just doesn't work. Poof. Gone. Although a paper to explain why your idea doesn't work might be valuable in steering someone else away from your mistake, still, the great idea you thought you had ... wasn't. So, time marches on. You try to publish at least one paper a year. You read the journals to keep up with what others are doing in your field . Publishers send you three or four text- books to edit or review every year, hoping to convince you to decide to use one as material in one of your classes. You try to attend a few conferences every year, hopefully presenting a paper at each one. If you're "lucky" you might even have the opportunity to chair a ses- sion at one of the conferences. You might find that your area of research is the type of thing a few agencies or businesses or foundations are into, so you write up some grant proposals detailing your work and why the people with the money might find your work valuable. And the one thing that remains constant is that you teach. With all of the other things you are expected to do, your biggest commitment by far is to your students. You have ten or twenty students to advise, some of them brilliant, some of them not so brilliant. Some you sit down in the cof- fee shop with for hours dis- cussing economic theory as it relates to the small entrepre- neur. Other students you might only know by the scrawl of their signature at the top of their assignments and the occa- sional add/drop form. You teach them all.

You've learned that being a professor isn't a career I you Ci:ln leave at the office. It accompanies you as you walk out the doors of your school.

"I have been to the United States twice before for brief visi ts, staying in hotels, but now I am getting the real feel of the place.' "In books I can read about I palm wine drinkers," continues Dr. Leon Van Dyke, Professor of Dramatic Arts at UW-Parkside, "but in Nigeria, I could actually drink palm wine ... I can read about the talking drums which are quite famous, but when you I really experience it, it is really quite indescribable, as they sing your praises with the drum." Ogundele and Van Dyke are participants in a cultural immersion program sponsored by the United States Information Agency. Van Dyke was to be in Nigeria for two months, this summer past, teaching at Obafemi Awolowa University in Ile-Ife, a school roughly 1000 times the size of Parkside where Ogundele teaches 19th century English Literature and poetry. Despite a carefully planned program, he was only able to conduct a small workshop for advanced acting students. "The University faculty was on strike ... the actual reasons behind the strike are somewhat mysterious," states Van Dyke. Ogundele explains that it has much to do with the newly appointed Minister of Education unilaterally revoking many parts of a former agreement between faculty and the governmen t. As a resul t, "I was only able to meet with University faculty and members of a residential acting company,' Van Dyke says. "What Lee did was on his own initiative,' Ogundele I Cbalce Between Proteetlon 01 ""'ven80n against Crime and VloI8nce' alarms is that, "people may ignore these like they do car alarms,' noted Schlecht. She continued, "my best advice is to be aware of your surroundings and know how to react and avoid the situation in the first place .• When asked about spraying dye in the face of an atacker, Sgt. John Rohde, of the Kenosha Police Department, expressed concerns of legality. However, Officer Schelcht spoke with the office of the Kenosha District Attorney and was told that the product She was referring to was legal. DYEWitness Criminal Identifier is the means of protection against attack. "Although it is not a technological breakthrough it may be a novel idea,' said an employee of a local paint factory. The employee went on to say that a solvent to remove any stain from the dye could chemically be determined. Nonetheless, it would seem that an attacker marked with dyed green skin, would be at a disadvantage. Continued on page 2 IJy Marquita Hynes feature writer Raised consciousness, behavioral changes, and SItuational adaptations: are these attempts to protect oneself from an assault? Are these attempts to prevent an assault? Information abounds regarding the protection against personal assaul ts. Prevention is another matter. Staff from the Women's Center on this campus relayed their concerns in a recent interview to the Ranger. One such concern was that un til American society decides to teach nonviolence (prevention), people can only protect themselves against attacks. Protection is a marketable idea. Officer Marlene Schlecht, of the Parkside Campus Police showed this writer a box filled with items that attempt to protect a victim from an attack. The mechanisms ranged from hand held alarms to vision obstructing solvents. Schlecht said the campus police could not endorse any such product. A problem with hand held emphasizes. States Van Dyke, "My atti tude became one of learning as much as I could from the drama that was taking place around me ... I was saddened because of not meeting with students.' After a month in Nigeria, Van Dyke wa asked to leave by the American Consulate because of the decaying political situation. Despite his shortened visit, Van Dyke reports that "I feel richer for having been in Nigeria at all. • Describing his hasty departure, Van Dyke quietly says, "I was as close to a real revolution as I'd ever like to be. I was frightened sometimes, especially on the last day as we were driving to the capital.' Van Dyke remembers driving around and through burning road-blocks. He remembers feeling the heat licking at his face and arms. "I was not comfortable,' he describes in an understated tone. "I felt Dr. Leon Van Dyke with Dr. Wole Ogundele that I was in the middle of a of children, starting a mob action that could get revolution is a scary thing." worse at any time.

The old way that we were doing it only caused longer lines, not convenience for the student.' "At first students are a little intimidated when they see that they have to find their own books. But after we give them some direction, they have a positive reaction." The advising center moved into the bookstore's old location in WLLC 107 next to the new teaching center. "There are plans to renovate so as to make the center more easily accessible to students the new location on the concourse is a plus," said Jack Elmore, director of the advising center. According to G. Gary Grace, assistant chancellor for student affairs, money will be made available in the upcoming year for those renovations. The renovations for the new bookstore area, however, were paid for completely by Follet, the company contracted to run the store. "Follet paid for all the remodeling, which ended up costing about $70,000. Though that sounds quite expensive, it's actually modest, considering the cost of masonry and labor. That doesn't include things like the shelves and furnishings ... • Grace wen t on to explain that "the bookstore's renovation is actually an anchor for remodeling of the entire coffee shop area. We're looking at upgrading food service operations. n This includes the possibility of national fast food vendors. Grace's goal is to get campus operations up to speed with students "If I had a singular goal it would be to reduce all lines on campusincluding registration.' "The campus store's new look is more professional. Students tend to like the selfservice," said Nancy Schroeder, manager of the Parkside Campus Bookstore. Schroeder is referring to the revamping of the bookstore that took place over the summer. The old bookstore located in WLLCI07 moved to WLLC Dl74 - the advising center's old location. "It was a much needed change," said Schroeder.

"He is very conspicuous. " The civil unrest was precipitated by an election held in Nigeria on June 12, 199~. Nigeria's military leader, apparently dissatisfied with the results, has annulled the election. "It is illegal to even speak of it." claims Ogundele. "It is as if it has never happened." He chuckles and says, "The best way to respond is to laugh and regard it as a comedy." Van Dyke hastens to add, "Yet it is the lives of our friends and family which are effected ... It is a comedy with a tear in the middle of it." Ogundele's wife and three cl ildren remain in Nigeria. Vs.n Dyke sums up his hopes at: d fears: "I want a sane resolution to this mad situation and 1 fear for one ... I fear for the friends that 1 made." On August 23, Ogundele left Nigeria for his portion of the planned exchange. He spent some 20 hours in the air, flying to Chicago by way of Brazil, because there are no longer any direct flights available between Nigeria and the U.S. He says that he is not overly concerned about not being able to return. "Even if we wanted to be a totalitarian regime," he claims, "it would be impossible, because of our history and culture ... This is a government that is trying to please everyone ... They won't restrict movement." Ogundele summarizes, "As of now, I have no fear of not being able to return anytime I like." Ogundele reports that in comparison with his home, he feels fairly safe here. "We know that there is serious violence here." he says, " but the violence here is more predictable and hence more avoidable than what I am used to ... Violence in Nigeria is inimical, random, un predictable." Ogundele describes his reception at Parkside as "very satisfying." He speaks of the advantages of a small campus. "here, I was able to have lunch with the Chancellor. In Nigeria, I would have to make an appointment weeks in advance, for just a word." Asked about his initial impressions of the U.s., Ogundele responds. "Well, in Africa. we tend to know more about the U.S. than we do about ourselves .., We get almost daily reports of what is happening in the U.S. through the BBC and in our newspapers," he chuckles. Van Dyke teasingly says, "Yeah, he knows Springsteen and Dylan better than I do." Ogundele goes on, "In all seriousness, though, there so far has not been any disappointment ... The reality has not fallen short of the expectations." Ogundele, a bright, witty and personable scholar, can be found in his office or in the coffee shoppe or courtyard, chatting with students. Immersing himself in the culture of Parkside, he adds to Parkside an incisive and refreshing presence. We at the Rangt'>' bid him welcome and best wishes. 1993-94 STAFF Edltor-ln-Ohlef Steven Moore Managing Editor ...•.. ,•...••••...•....•........................•.....••.....• Stanley Washington Assisting Managing Editor .........................•••..••.••....••••...•..•...

I Dan Mitchell, Kenosha resident and seller of the product, views the price of the spray dye to be comparable to a trip to the hair salon. He became interested in the product when he saw it at a Las Vegas trade show. Mitchell supported his product by saying it is legal, unlike pepper spray. Protection is indeed a marketable concept; but, it does not preven t crimes. Several Parkside students did say that they try to protect themselves from physical attack through behavioral changes and situational adaptations. Mike Morrone, a senior studying geography, said that when in a leery situation, "I look around, I watch." He avoids areas in large cities that may be troublesome and has had, on occasion, had to present himself in an imposing manner. Jenny Punzel, a communication major, always tries to keep alert when at school in the evening. She recalled how, in her neighborhood, "walking home once I had someone fallowing me, so I just walked up to a house and acted like it was mine." It worked. Parkside senior, Stephanie Ritter relays another sentiment. Said Ri tter, "I have a really hard time with this idea of always having to be cautious. We have to go to extremes to be safe. There's no privacy left in our lives. 1 think that really hurts me more than anything else. I have to rely on others for my exercise (not jogging aloner-for my transportation. If I don't I'll partially be at fault (if assaulted). It's a difficult situation. It frustrates me and makes me angry." There are attempts to stop violence in American society.

By iJrillgillg its history to today's students we bring in the hope that we aU might - be better able to embody the letter and spirit of this annrumary year's motto: "Knou: the Past / Imagine theFature" As pointed out earlier, the selection of the Petrifying Springs property in Kenosha County was, at best, a last effort by the selection committee to produce a site which would, at the very least, please President Fred Harvey Harrington. At the time, that's about all that it did. In retrospect, the property was probably the best of all possible places that Parkside could have gone, few were willing to concede the fact at the time. The committee's selection of the Petrifying Springs property marked the climax of Parkside's early development. Rather than quieting the storm surrounding the selection committee's various other doomed decisions, the Petrifying Springs Park property selection raised the amplitude of public discontent to it's highest level. Indeed, many of the area's residents were anything but ready to welcome their new neighbor. In a letter of objection to the committee's plans to acquisition privately owned property, one resident lashed out at former President Harrington as valueless, comparing the decision to the "ruthlessness" of industry, and chastised the president thus: "When the schoolmaster joins with 'trade's unfailing train', he loses his identity, and reason for being." Others were less hostile, as was another local resident, who offered 16 acres of his farm adjacent to the Parkside property, and even submitted a plan to construct a swimming pool on the tract. period lingered long into it's early growth period. WIthin the soil of that fight, though, lay the seeds of a vibrant and growing Universityin the form of a master plan developed by the architectural firm of Helmut, Obata, and the structure. Greenquist Hall, the original classroom building upon which the majority of expansion has taken place, was named for Kenneth L. Greenquist, a prominent member of University of Wisconsin's Board In a process which progressed from negotiation to outright condemnation, the county finally aquired 31 contiguous properties amounting to $2. I million, which constituted the whole of the Parkside Campus. According to Parkside's own original Academic Philosophy statement "A University gains strength by relating itself to the region in which it is located." Much of this strength had been sapped by the events of the previous year-and-a-half. This process crowned a period of aggravation and acrimony, and the hostility fostered during this Kassabaum of St. Louis. They proposed a $6.5 million plan, which initially included Greenquist, and Tallent Halls. The Library Learning Center, the PhyEd Building, and the Communicatjpn Arts building were all part of the original master plan designed by Gyo Obata, a partner of the architectural firm which took the project on in 1966, specifically to "de-emphasize clearly defined stories, or floors", and to center visual attention and student activity around the Library Learning Center, intended as the hub of Volunteer Opportunilie.

Visit the Volunteer Office- WLLC-D175 far mare infomuuion: of Regents (and president, at the time of his death in April, 1968). Greenquist was a vocal supporter of plans to develop a four-year university in Southeast Wisconsin. Tallent Hall was named after Bernard C. Tallent, the first director of University of Wisconsin's two year Kenosha center. Tallent ran the center for 17 years, until his death in 1965. Tallent was particularly known for his devotion to education and community service, and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters in 1965. These original buildings were not large enough to handle many of the necessary requirements of the university, and several temporary structures had to be erected to bear the burden. Even more interesingly, several of the administrative and support services - including the library utilized many of the old buildings abandoned by their unfortunate owners. The Library Learning Center, which replaced makeshift temporary buildings as the reference center for the university, was not approved for construction until October of 1969, along with the plans for the PhyEd building, in the midst of a $20.3 million construction program in the 1969-1971 biennium. The library cost $7 million to construct, and the P.E. builiding was slated at $2.2 million. These two buildings were not ready for occupancy until fall of 1972, which would be the same year that Parkside was to receive it's own separate accredidation, apart from the parent facility UWMadison, from the North Central Association of Colleges, and secondary schools. The Comm Arts Building would not be ready for use until fall of 1973, and the Union, attached to the main campus, would not be available until 1976. The Physical Education Building's original plans included an extension for future growth, and was actually considered during the 1975-77 biennium, but has not been -looked at since. Next Issue: Political Activity in Patkside's "Tender" Years. Dr. Peace to Speak OR Education On September 20, at NOON, Dr. G. Earl Peace Jr., UWSystem Academic Planner in the Office of Academic Affairs, will be speaking on "Process Oriented Science Education" in Moln 0-137. While Dr. Peace was a chemistry faculty member at the College of Holy Cross, Worcester, MA, the chemistry department developed a laboratory-centered approach to the teaching of general chemistry entitled Discovery Chemistry. This approach emphasizes the connection between a theory and the supporting empirical data. New topics are first introduced in the laboratory and then discussed more fully later in lecture. The students participate in a cooperative effort in which they are partners in the learning process. The inductive nature of the laboratory format appeals to the students' sense of drama and, during the postlaboratory meeting, provides them with the opportunity to experience the meaning of discovery - that flash of understanding which draws many of us to the study of science.

Unfortunately, these people are often neglected by barriers created upon myths, prejudices, stereotypes, fears, and basic ignorance of which concern their true disability. This misguidance can be eliminated with facts, understanding, and common sense. Along with Renee' Sartin Kirby (coordinator of students with disabilities), an academic support group for students with disabilities is being cofacilitated by Cheryl Montgomery and Sonya Rhutasel to take the first step. Prior to admission, students with disabilities are encouraged to schedule an appointment with an admissions officer and the coordinator for students with disabilities (as for now, Renee' Sartin Kirby). Note that students with physical disabilities are also encouraged to contact Student Health Services for support, not only those with a mental impairment. Students with disabilities, admitted to the UW-Parkside are further encouraged to take advantage of services offered to them under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Americans with Disabilities Act ofI990. Accommodations available to students with disabilities include. but are not limited to: taped textbooks; enlarged materials; preferential seating; alternate format (black/white copy); taped tests; extended time; distraction free environment; computer assistance; braille materials; and note taker services. Eligibility for such services include a form of records and/ or evaluations from a physician, psychiatrist, psychologist, or a licensed diagnostician. The academic support group for students with disabilities will . be meeting in CART 143, Wednesdays from 12:00 to 12:50. On September 29th, the planned topic is, "Is Time Manageable?" Followed on October 27th, addressing, "How Can I Get What I Want and Need?" As the semester comes to a dose, November 17th, the issue at hand is. "Is There a Better Wayto Prepare for Exams?" For more information about this support group, contact Renee' Sartin Kirby in WLLC D175, 595-2610.

If one keeps a hand weapon properly in a house. You keep it in a locked place and unloaded. Ifyou did have and intruder in your house, by the time you got the weapon ready to go, the intruder would most likely have the upper hand on you. Ifyou keep a hand weapon unlocked and loaded thinking, "My kid will police officer. I have yet to meet a police person not in favor of handgun control. There is no reason, NONE, for a civilian to have a assault weapon, Those weapons are designed to do one thing very well. Kill people! The tragedies that have happened all over the country with regards to these kinds of weapons are appalling. It is only by God's grace that a disaster concerning automatic weapons was recently averted here in Kenosha at a local McDonald's. To the argument that criminals will always be able to get guns: true, but a lot more killings would be averted with control than without it. II we must have access to handguns than why not have state-run armories. In the Navy, if! wan ted to own a personal weapon, I was required to check it in and out of the armory. Why not the same in civilian life? Lastly. people are required to obtain license to drive, to fly, to teach. to practice law. Why not a requirement to show that you have been properly trained with a weapon before being allowed to obtain one? At least it would help. This week I would like to comment on two words. These two words are guaranteed to create controversy. The two words are ( Rush Limbaugh,just kidding) gun control. More specifically, hand gun and assault weapon con trol. The Second Amendment to the Constitution talks about the need of a well armed militia being necessary, the right of people to keep and bear arms shall not be abridged. This amendment has never been read into the 14th amendment by use of the due process or equal rights clauses, The Supreme Court has rarely ruled on the second amendment. As a conservative I nonetheless believe that the second amendment at the lest pertains to shoulder weapons (shotguns and rifles) only. I am more persuaded that a well-armed militia refers to the military or police and that civilian ownership of weapons can be regulated. The argumen t in favor of uncontrolled access to hand guns and, to a lesser extent, automatic weapons is for self Vignelles by Cal the bastard semi-colon; being born of legitimate punctuational parents; the period and the comma semicolons are half one and half the other;and therefore half useless; or at least half assed; and have added at least half wrong to the punctuation of this misarable little critique.

"There are very few moments in history that are comparable to this moment." -Hanan Ashrawi, PLO representatioe to Washington talks "Right here, right now. There is no other place I'd rather be." -fesus J(JII1!S I normally take a very cavalier look at life when I write my article, but events this past week have moved me to take a step in the more serious direction. The prospect for peace in the mid-east had been brewing for about a week and I didn't much think about it. It was finally announced that the PLO and Israel both formally recognize each other. This step is an important one in world history, if it is a start of a journey of true peace. The twentieth century is one which has been defined by war and violence. It is encouraging to see people of different cultures trying to overcome their differences to keep the peace. I remember watching an episode of Head of the Class on year when the class was given an assignment to report the news twenty years from now. The overly pompous Alan talked about many unlikely events, mentioned that the Israeli/Palestine team looked promising to win the gold in track and field. At the time it was funny. Now it seems that there migh t be a chance that in twenty years Israelis and Palestines might actually find they have more in common wi th one another. War is a great deal like alcoholism, you first have to admit you have a problem. From there you have to work on staying sober, one day at a time. I can only hope that the mid-east can remain sober after nearly thirty years of unrelenting hostility. The differences between these two cultures are centuries old,which means that a secure peace isn't going to be a certain ty overnight. It will take a great deal of work, dedication, understanding and patience. The longest journey begins with a single step. Let us hope that its a long and fruitful journey. . .:.•.... -':'.;; --- . 595-228Z by George Harris.Ir. In recent years. some people have been invoking the name of McCarthyism to silence conservatives. We are taught that McCarthyism, at its height, was the ultimate evil that government can perpetrate on its citizens. I shall bring to your attention an overlooked chapter in American History. The fairness doctrine, which came into being during the 19110'sand lasted until the early 1980's, was used during the Kennedy/Johnson administrations to monitor right wing broadcasts - whether they were extremist or not. Under this rule. a radio station can lose its license to broadcast if enough people object to its programming. Many times it became a way to legally censor unwanted free speech. Here is an example of how the fairness doctrine would work: WAYChires me to be a conservative talkshow host. I become very popular and very controversal. A group of disgruntled liberals, for example, can petition the radio station, when their licence goes for renewal, to either get me off the air or balanced with other hosts who have a differing view point. The most liberal among us can not defend what the government of the sixties did. The government basically dictated who should get to speak out and who didn't. The fairness doctrine is silently being proposed by liberals, like George Harris,fr. Barbara Boxer of California, who are concerned about the popularity of conservatives on the radio. They feel that it isn't fair that a guy like Rush Limbaugh reaches millions of people while they are left in the cold. They also want a way to run conservatives off the air by pressuring radio stations.

Benetton's Parisian agency, Eldorado crafted the picture. This past summer, I completed research for an Indepent Study Communication course. I realized how numb I had become over my short lived years to propaganda (advertising) and how it exploits and neglects people of color. Racism is a major . drawback in advertising. There are roles ads play in our country's racial unrest and consumer marketing. Racism in advertising means a negative message conveyed to people of color from the media promoting the idea that they are inferior. Therefore, the media implies or suggests to non-whites that they have an obligation or right to distort the images of people of color at will. First, ironically there not only is the presence of racism in ads, but the lack of people of color as well. Negativity in portrayal creates hostility for all people of color. However, Ward remarks, "The absence of blacks in advertising, more than stereotyping, makes black people irate about their situation and status," said Marilyn Kern-Foxworth, a journalism professor at Texas A&M University who is writing a book on the history of blacks in advertsing" (35) .

Whenever you .... -ee or disagree with my views, 1:o\~~1Ieyxpress yourself with a "-<el~l.-to the Editor. ihave noticed a sensitive issue still lingering in our consciousness todaycommonly called The Battle of the Sexes. Some people continue to debate the subject with misunderstandings and preconceptions about men and women. Bookstores try to offer answers by loading shelves with variations on the same themes-women's guides to understanding men and the complete guide to understanding the female gender. Talk shows like The Oprah Winfrey Show also try desperately to offer answers to this "heated" issue. I get extremely agitated, especially when I read or hear that "men will always do that" or "women will always be that way." I work at Wal-mart as an Electronics Associate, and I often notice silly squabbles between couples. As I was selling a VCR to a couple, I laughed as I noticed their use of common stereotypes. The man stated, "Oh honey, keep quiet ...you know that women are not electronically inclined," and the woman looked across at him and said, "men think they know everything." At first this seemed funny, but the expressions on their faces revealed something tragic about their relationship. They continued their back and forth exchange of harsh and cruel statements. It's disappointing to see how petty arguments can split a couple apart. Most of these disputes are largely due to how society has programmed us about men and women. We need to tear down these barriers, and eliminate the misconceptions about the sexes. James Thurber once said, "The wife who keeps saying, 'Isn't that just like a man?' and the hushand who keeps saying 'Oh well, you know how women are,' are likely to grow farther and farther apart through the years." lapply 8 .... and, cont. from pg. 7 I hope this will give all the people the incentive to contact the television networks, consumer product companies or even your local restaurant to give constructive criticism and compliments when thy are due.

He stated that he •...Iived through the seventies once ... ., Well, I'm sorry to say, that if it happened allover again (the seventies), it would be the first time he could remember. Jeffery is trying to create the impression that he is a veteran, experienced writer who has seen more of the world than his fellow "fresh out of high school" students. 1 know for a fact that Jeffery is at least two years younger than myself, with me being twenty-two. Even I don't really remember the seventies except from what I see in family pictures and a few debilitating flashbacks of the hideous clothes my mother dressed me in when I was a child ...a very young child. Kids born in the late seventies spent most of that decade in diapers. Bythe time most kids born in the early to mid-seventies have memories they recall vividly,those memories occured in the eighties. Stuff like Blondie and roller skating at the local rink. Those year we can saywe lived through. And personally, the thought of going through that again terrifies me more than the seventies ever could I And by the way, bell bottoms were out offashion in the first few years of 1970. My ·70's" expert says that when she married in 1975, all that was left of bell bottoms was a slight flare in the in the hemline. Bell bottom belonged to the sixties. I hope you don't say that you lived through that decade also! The next fashion to become extinct was the "young yuppie in the business suit"look. Before you attempt to insult a lifestyle you have not truly experienced. as you say you have, why not talk to those that have. There are plenty of people who would be willing to oblige you. You may find that it wasn't as bad as you "remembered ." p.s. We the readers would love to see a photo of you in 1970 so we can approximate your agel Sincerely, Brigitte Hauser Dear Mr. Moore: I wish to reply to Brian Matsen, author of "The Silent Cry-A Christian Perspective." During the 1992/'93 school year, Mr. Matsen's writings appeared regularly in the Ranger- News. While 1 found his ideas to be somewhat unorthodox and radical, I was able to dismiss them as simply over-zealous. Now, however, Mr. Matsen has gone too far. In calling himself a "voice for the mainstream Christian population," he has taken a great deal too much upon himself. I consider myself a Christian; however, I would never allow Brian Matsen to be my "voice." While I believe that Mr. Matsen may have the right ideacertainly it is good to be a Christian and to share those beliefs with others-he does not or cannot communicate those ideas effectively. I feel safe in saying that I, and probably the majority of this campus (Christians and non- Christians alike), find his articles extremely offensive. The Lord does not want us to point fingers or pass judgement on others. Instead, he asks us to "Co and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19)." Instead of following this command, Mr. Matsen's method of sharing his faith appears to involve simply spewing rhetoric and misinterpreted Bible passages. The Bible can be interpreted any way that anyone chooses; even Satan can quote the Bible (see Matthew 4:1-10 and Luke 4:1-13). As they read now, Mr. Matsen's articles are confusing, non-sensical gibberish; people are being turned away from Christianity, rather than to it. Remember, we must "open men's eyes, not tear them out." Until you can get off of your soap box and have a reasonable Christian discussion of your beliefs, Mr. Matsen, please do not presume to call yourself a Christian voice. A Concerned Christian, Traci A. Kitelinger Dear Mr. Moore: I too am one of the many students who have viewed the new Ranger format and like it. However, all of the fancy prin t styles and pictures do not seem to override the fact that the Rang",' has changed drastically in content - I'm not sure it's for the better. I recall when reading the Ranger-consisted of pertinent student news. Things that were important regarding students directly, not the political games being played while discussions of religion, upward mobility, and abortion are being discussed. My original concern is that, while the new- Chancellor is very irn portan t to our student lives, the publishing of his complete speech may have been a bit overboard. I personally hope that all will go well, and I welcome Chancellor Stockwell to the position with open arms. However, as a student who has been burned one too many times by all of the "great expectations," I just wonder how much of the promises will really come true. My advice to the Ranger is simply cut down on the overpowering publicity. Students will come to a Chancellor who is willing to listen to students, not to a man who is overpublicized. Finally, my greatest disappointment with the new Ranger is a pair of articles regarding religion. I have never been so appalled as I was when the rash generalizations of Christianity were made. Furthermore, my anger was intensified when I saw the same author's article about abortion. A man who uses nothing other than biblical references to attempt to support his weak, colored view of abortion should be taken out and shot. What person ever gave him the power of authority of the effects of abortion. Granted, I believe that every individual should be allowed his or her own opinion of what is right regarding abortion however, when writing this opinion, state that it is only an opinion. As a woman who stands strong and proud behind the Pro-Choice view point, I really wonder how he can sleep at night knowing that not only does he think that by writing this article he has the authority to tell me what to do with my body, but that his view was accepted by the Parkside student body. WRONGI I ! Things are deftnitely changing at the new Ranger. Now, let's take the time to change them for the better or ALL students on campus, not just the ones who have a column in the Ranger.

Itwas a trip that was inspired by a monetary thrashing we both took a week earlier, while betting on dogs running in circles. Oddly enough, gambling out of spite does not seem to be the wise thing to do. After work, at about 5;30, Andy picked me up at my house in Racine, and on the night before school started, we started out on a trip that I was sure would only take two hours. We also figured out that we didn't know the directions to the casino, but we saw a sign in Milwaukee, and figured that we should easily be able to find our way. Our plan was to speed 'up to Green Bay, gamble until ten, and then be back at home by midnight counting our fortunes. So, with three dumb assumptions under our belt, we headed off into the north woods. Two and a half hours later Patch and I were at a Citgo station somewhere in Green Bay asking directions; we had apparently taken quite a large wrong turn, but fortunately we were back on track and standing in awe of the Oneida Casino about fifteen minutes later. The Oneida Casino is essentially a large pole barn with a lot of slot machines, Blackjack tables and Bingo seats. There are a lot of flashing lights, but not much in the way of wall decorations. We wandered through the forest of one arm bandits, and found two seats at a Blackjack table. The game of Blackjack is relatively simple, even odds game of cards that moves very quickly, which is why it is so popular with gamblers. I am sure that the majority of you out there in Parkside land have played it so I won't go into the gory details. I do wish that someone had gone over the gory details with me, because my wallet began bleeding at a rapid pace as soon as I sat down and started to play. As I was losing more and more money, Patch seemed to be winning, and was at one point about fifteen dollars ahead. Now this may not sound like a lot of money, but when you are down forty, it is flfty five bucks away from where you are. Fortunately for my ego, the dealer put together a remarkable string of hands that included back to back "Someone who you can trust to stand behind you." Blackjacks, a three seven twenty one, and a seven card twenty, to put Mister Patch's money in the same crapper mine went down. At about ten thirty, we had taken enough abuse and walked away from the table shaking our heads at the brilliance of our plan to gain a fortune, or at least the price of one book. However, I had not quite had enough, and in a desperate act, I got about five bucks in quarters, and threw it into a slot machine. Well, oddly enough, I won back about half the money I lost ( I am being an optimist). so I only threw about twenty-six bucks away. At about twelve thirty, Andy and I stopped in the "SuperSaver" in Port Washington to get some food, and some caffeine, so that we would stay wide awake for the ride home. We browsed through the health food, and picked up a bag of Ruffles, some "Garlic Toasties", and a twelve pack of Diet Pepsi. This little stop started a conversation that basically went like this until we got back to Racine; "Gabe, we suck at gambling." "Yeswe do Andy" "This was a dumb idea Gabe, probably dumber than going to the dog track last week." "Yesit was Andy; it was definitely dumber than going to the dog track last week." "We're stupid Gabe." 'Yes Andy, we are." "Someone who doesn't tell your business to your parents!" Wendy Orlowski (Benlor/art education) Wendy M.

Thankfully, there are some good television shows out this season. There are many duds out there but there are a few quality show you can watch. Get Mad on Thursdays. On Thursday nights, NBC runs a well written show called Mad About You. It's a funny, well written show about married life and relationships. The characters are believable and fun to watch. If you like police drama, I'd highly recommend The Comrnish. The series revolves around police commissioner Tony Scally. He looks like a real life person, not a perfect model. The stories are well written, the plot holds you attention, and its fun to watch. Saturday nights, ABC 9 PM. The John Laroquette Show is a great show which revolves around Jack Hammond, a recovering alcoholic. The humor is dry and has an edge to it, giving the show a grip in reality. The sets look like something from the movie Blade Runner, a definite plus. Tuesday nights, NBC 7 P.M. Monday nights are dominated CBS. At 8 P.M. you should watch Murphy BTOW1. Its topical humor is witty and well written. Loue and War, which I think is Mad lite, isn't all that bad ofa show. Nothem Exposure has to be the dominating show on 1V right now. Ifyou don't know what it's about, you don't know what you're missing. It's a funny show with a little bit of drama thrown in. Myfavorite show on any network has to be Stm' Trek: The Next Generation. Ifyou hate science fiction, please skip this paragraph. Next Generation is, in my opinion, the best television show in years ( Next to HiU Street Blues.) Where else can you find drama, full characters, and a hint of subtle comedy every week. Plus you cano zip off into the 23rd century and have fun. Roadhouse Saloon & Eatery 657-7888 6208 Greenbay Rd.

PAl bringing FUN and Enjoyment to the Student lady Club QIA Chris Tishuk Feature Editor For this week's edition of club Q&A, I met with the Parkside Activities Board (PAB) president Rebbeca Stenstrup. She began her work on PAB four years ago on the live entertainment committee and worked up to team coordinator of film and video. Last year, she served as vice president and this year president I discussed with her the responsibilities of the PAB and their plans for the upcoming year. CT: What does the PAB do? RS: We put on approximately 95% of all campus activities ranging from comedians, hypnotists to bands, movies, and plays such as Oklahoma and Lost in Yonkers. CT: What goals do you have for this school year? RS: Over the summer we made five or six goals for ourselves. We wanted to do an open house- which was last week. We have recruitment goals. We want to have 15 people by the end of October. CT: How could someone join the PAB? RS: Just stop down. We are located down the hallway behind the Union info desk. Just stop in and we'll make you part of the family. CT: What events do you have planned for this year? RS: Last night we had the comedian Brad Perry. We have a lot of events planned for this year. Tonight we are showing Who Framed Roger Rabbit which is free for all students. CT: Are all the movies going to be free this year? RS: Yes! All the movies will be free for students and one dollar for guests. CT: How do you decide which acts to book? RS: That is very difficult. We get so much information and there are so many acts. What we do is we like to see all of the performers before we book them. We go to the NACA conference, which is the National Association for Campus Activities. Many of the acts we book are there and then we get the chance to see the performers before we book them. .CT: What are your duties as PAB president? RS: To make sure all the different committees are doing their job. Make sure promotion is up on time and there is some diversity in each of the committees and the performers. Basically, I oversee everything that happens in the PAB. CT: Who are the other officers ofPAB? RS: There are many. They are Amanda Lawrence, Melisa Halverson, Aaron Sens, Katie Klingsporn, Desaree Franklin, Claudia Foertsch, Bryan Halverson,Jenny Punzel, and Patti Jefferson. CT: How do you get student input into the performers you book and the activities you plan? RS: Well, it's very difficult to get student feedback. We have tried more than once to send out surveys to the student body. Last year we sent out a survey about "The End" asking students to mark which types of music they like to listen to and we based our entertainment on that. But generally those type of things don't work to well. The easiest way to give us input is to stop in the PAB office and talk to somebody or to join. Just join. CT: Does the PAB have any type of motto or founding principle? RS: Yes! We take your fun seriously! ATTENTION BOWLERS! SOC Defines SeRlester Goals. I1y Morten Sunde Another semester has started, and all the clubs and organizations are coming hack to life. As the president of the Student Organization Council (S.O.C.) I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all the new officers with their positions. 1 look forward to working with you in the upcoming year. For those of you who don't know what S.O.C. is, it is one of the five major status organizations on campus. All smaller clubs and organizations are funded through.S.O.C. Together we represent a wide range of interests, and most clubs sponsor different events throughout the semester. Every two weeks on Mondays we meet in Molin~ 0-137. The next meeting will be September 27th. If you are interested in joining a club, just stop by the S.O.C. office in Union 203, or stop by the Student Life Office in Union 209. If you can't find a club that you would like to be in, then start your own. It's not very difficult, and we'll help you along the way. 1 will try to actively work to create better communication between the different clubs and organizations, so if any of you have any suggestions to how we can improve S.O.C., please let me know. It is not mandatory for the clubs to attend the meetings, but I strongly suggest Morten Sunde that each club send a representative. We will inform you of upcoming events, try to avoid clubs having an even t at the same time and give deadlines for budget due dates. On September 22nd. S.O.C. will be holding a recruitment fair in upper main place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. I hope to see all of the clubs represented. It's a good opportunity to increase your club membership, and for students not involved it is a good time to look at what clubs are active on campus. I hope I see a lot of you there. modem dance club 3790 Meachem Rd•• 554-9695 Corner of Meachem & Taylor D.J.

This week, St. Louis Cardinal,' outfielder Mark Whitten had 4 home runs and 12RBI's against the Reds. The Chicago teams fared well as the White Sox built their lead in the west to 6 1/2 by taking two out of three from I New York and sweeping Detroit. George Bell returned to action with a homer in each game against theTigers. The Cubs have won six in a row, including three against the division leading Phillies. In the divisional races, Atlanta has closed to within 2 1/2 of the Giants; Montreal is six behind Philadelphia. Toronto, New York and Baltimore are still fighting it out in the American League East; all are within a game of each other. Huffing and Puffing: Finally, in the spirit of Remington Steele, who once said to Laura Holt "Laura, why spoil a perfectly good day by running?", a new record in the mile run was set. yards, and the defense allowed no touchdowns. All in all, it was quite an enjoyable weekend for Wisconsin football fans. In other NFL action, Joe Montana returned by throwing three touchdowns to lead the Kansas City Chiefs over the lackluster Tampa Bay Bucks. Despite a cheap shot by Kevin Green of the Steelers, Steve Young and the San Francisco 4gers beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh. In Chicago, the Bears continued a trend of losing games in the last 3 minutes, when the New York Giants scored a late touchdown to beat them. Finally, the defending Super Bowl champs (or maybe in this case chumps), the Dallas Cowboys, came to Washington D. C. to play the Redskins, and left 35 -16 losers. No Hits: In baseball, onehanded Jim Abbott of the New York Yankees no hit the Cleveland Indians 4 - 0, and Daryl Kyle of the Houston Astros no hit the New York Mets 7 - 1 (the Mets run scored courtesy of errors). Last week, C.J Nelson Match Point: Six of the top ten seeds at the V. S. Open Tennis Championship have been eliminated. These include the top mens seed Jim Courier, past womens winner Martina Navratilova. For only the second time in the Open's history, and the first time since 1963, there will be no American in the women's semifinals. Kickoff: The Wisconsin Badgers won their first game of the season beating Nevada 35- 17. In Milwaukee, the Green Bay Packers dominated the Los Angeles Rams, winning 36-6. This was one of the most impressive and lopsided opening day wins in Packer history. Quarterback Bret Favre spread passes all over the field. 'Tight End Jackie Harris and All-Pro Sterling Sharp were outstanding. Receiver Mark Clayton (a cast off from Miami) also joined the parade with a circus touchdown catch.

Intramurals are a great way to keep in shape and also remain competitive. Here are the Intramural sports offered this fall. VOlLEYBAlL: Entry deadline: Fri. Oct. 1st Play begins: Tues. Oct. 5 SWI" VIEWS ONSPORTS College and Pro Football Predictions and get the legend of Joe Montana(four Superbowl wins) off of Steve Young's (no Superbowl wins) back. As for the Packers, they will improve and make the playoffs. But as far as a Superbowl run, they will fall short. The 4gers opponent in the Superbowl will be theJoe Montana led Chiefs. Montana gives the Chiefs that final element to make a Superbowl run and the Chiefs vs. the 4gers will be a storybook match up. But, don't look for a marvelous Joe Montana come from behind victory. Steve Young will be the hero of this year, and he can finally say "I'm going to Disneyworld. " In college football look for the Florida State Seminoles to reign and finally win a national championship. Florida State simply has the most talent of any college football team out there, and they will finally bring Bobby Bowden that elusive national title. Michigan will win the Big Ten and make a bid for a national crown, Michigan problems will arise against Notre Dame and Penn State. BASKETBALL: Entry deadline: Fri. Oct. 1st Play begins: Tues. Oct. 5 FLAG FOOTBALL: Entry deadline: Mon. Sept. 20th Play begins: Wed. Sept 22 You can pick up a form to play, any of the intramurals at the Phy. Ed. building. Good luck and most of all have fun. Kevin Williams Spurts Editor Wisconsin will make an improvement and return to competition in bowl games this season. Wisconsin will not win the Big Ten title, but they will be a team to watch out for. Other surprise teams to keep an eye on are Parkside favorite Northwestern, Stanford and Penn State. Teams which will fall short of dreams for a national title are Notre Dame, Miami and Colorado. This looks to be an exciting year in both college and pro football. The new football season brings with it a need for new things, a new battery a new remote and a new meaning for the word coach potato. The '93 football season is finally underway, no more preseason anxiety. The games being played now are for real and it's time to either put up or shut up. It's also the time of year when we sports fans make our predictions on what teams we think will be the big winners in 93. Well, here are my predictions for college and pro football 93. Let's start out with pro football: News flash, the Dallas Cowboys will not repeat as Superbowl Champs in '93. Why? Because with the long holdout of Emmitt Smith the Cowboys don't have their most effective offensive weapon in the line-up. Without Emmitt in the game, it makes it harder for all of the other offensive weapons that Dallas has to make big plays. One message to Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones :PAYTHE MAN. The team to beat in '93 will be the San Francisco 4gers. They will return to the Superbowl in '93 SOFrBALL: Entry deadline: Mon. Sept. 20th Play begins: Wed.

Not only was it the Rangers home opener. it was the first victory for new head coach Susie Ketchum. Ketchum, a graduate of Idaho State, was satisfied with her team's performance. "We didn't give up, we played a little sporadic, but we are a very young team, and we keep learning" This years team only has three seniors on it's roster, so the younger players must step up and play big. After the game, Ketchum did admit she had a few butterflies in her stomach before her first game in front of the home crowd. "I was a. bit nervous, but I felt comfortable because I knew we would play hard: I really wanted the win." Parkside is 1-4, but don't let their record fool you: these ladies work hard. They travel to Mankato State, MN this weekend. Parkside's next home game is Tuesday, September 21 against Robert Morris College. Tip-off is at 7p.m .. Come out and support the team and new coach Ketchum. Parkside's women's Volleyball team defeated St. Joseph college in a very tight battle Tuesday night. Ranger player Tammi Rickert sparked the team out of a deadlock tie, in the fifth and final match. With a superb example of leadership, Rickert, a sophomore displayed great defense with 19 digs. Jessica Morrison, a freshman, also stepped up her play and had 19 kills.

In order to more effectively Incorporate these goa-s into Parkside's curriculum, the Task Force suggests anum ber of changes. One of the most important changes proposed is a one credit Freshman Seminar. Its purpose is threefold, according to Dr. Arthur L. Dudycha, professor of business management and co-chair of Gen- eral Education Task Force. "The primary purpose of the Freshman Seminar is to assist Stu- dents in making a suecessful tran- sition to the University and to the. aeadem ic process.

' African refugee problem discussed Marquita Hynes News Writer Are refugees from the New World Order or are they finding relief in the New World Order? Now that theCold War is over, more refugees are being pro- duced. Is the New World Order to blame? The Hom of Africa presentation on April 21 in Molinaro 107discussed thesedif- ficult questions. Dr. Terry Plater, African scholar and professor of urban planningatUW-Milwaukee,gave a two hour lecture and slide pre- sentation, which provided a fuller picture of lbe refugee problem. Allbough the program focused on lbe countries contained wilbin the horn of Africa (Somalia, Ethiopia,lbeSudanand Djibouti), Plater made it clear lbat any per- son in any cpuntry could become a refugee. She hopes that the atrocities occurring in Yugoslavia have made that point clear. "Refugees on television make us feel that they're always going to be like that. So, we then feel that we have no responsibility to them - that we can't help them," said Plater. However, she says, there are solutions 10 the refugee problem. Plater prefers local integration solutions. She believes that an orgaization in Ethiopia, staffed by Ethiopians, does a much better job at integrating refugees back into the country than does an outside organi- zation such as the United Nations. Not all outside help was criti- Ciled, however. UNICEF and Save lbe Children are two groups that she has been impressed with through her research and field work in Africa. The non- governmental agencies, according to Plater, are more personal, know lbe language of the country they are working in, and are deeply com- mutcdtosolving iheproblem. They do not want people to be perma- nent refugees. Refugees are people who flee their homeland due toenvironmen- tal and political reasons. "The real problem is Political and... the just distribution of resources," stressed Plater. Inlcuded in the political rea- sons for refugeeism were: inde- pendent struggles, internal ethnic conflict, class conflict, and inter- elite power struggles. Such com- plex reasons behind the problem are still solvable, believes Plater. Her knowledge of research materi- als dealing with lbe problem and lbe solutions are deLailed and ex- tensive, and she is readily willing to share her expertise wilb lbose who are interested in the subject. The Hom of Africa lecture Continued on Page 2 • Disability Awareness Week closes with lecture and discussion Gregory M. Gauthier News Writer UW-Parks idecompleted this years' Disabilities Awareness Week acti,vities wilb ashortsemi- nar Thursday, describing the Americans With DisabilitiesAct, and a panel discussion on !:riday involving several disabled mem- bers bf lbe KenoshajRacinC'com- munity, a University alumni, and several UW-Parkside employees. Thursday afternoon's lecture on the Americans Wilh Disabi Iities Act was held in the library's second floor Overlook Lounge at3 p.m., and was given byBonnie Peterson, a member of theNatioal Federation of lbe Blind. Peterson, who is visually disabled, was an active panicipant in efforts supporting the passage of ADA leg- islation in Congress in 1989 and 1990. The presenLation, which was given before asmall group ofUW- Parks ide employees and students, focused mainly on the broader is- sues surrounding the act itself, and several of iis most imporLant provi- sions. Pelerson stressed the Act's emphasis on equality of opportu- nity, flexibility incompliance, and it'S foundation based upon com- promise with competing interests, Continued on Page 2 ______________ ------------- I Tns RASGER NEWS, Page 2 General ed requirement changed Continued from Page I "Its secondary purpose is to provide an orientation to the Uni- versity an awareness of services offered a guide to correct con- duct ... an understanding of poli-. cies and procedures." Its third pur- pose is to provide students with skills in "information literacy." Students will learn how to use the library, its resources and its elec- tronic data bases. "This component of theFresh- man Seminar will eventually come to replace the currently used li- brary Workbook," Dudycha states. Another significant change pro- posed by the Task Force is the discontinuation of English 102. " The research paper require- ment is being replaced with em- phasis on research and writing in breadth of knowledge courses and the majors," states the Proposal. Math 102, a general course de- signed for arts and humanities stu- dents will be introduced, as an al- ternative means of satisfying basic computational skills requirements. Dudycha hastens to add that "stu- dents already here will not be ef- fected by these changes." Current students will be ex- pected to fulfill the requirements of the catalogue from the year in which they entered. Asked about how these changes will be imple- mented, Dudycha admits, "There are always so many loose ends to a proposal like this. There are quite a number of items will that will need tobe clari- fied before full irnplementation takes place ... The general Aca- demic Steering Committee will have its work cut out for them." Disability Awareness Week Continued from Page 1 stating that the Act's intent was to "meet each other half way." Sensitive to vocal concerns over some of the legislation's more . controversial provisions, Peterson stated, "Noone isexpected to have all the answers ...there is space to experiment," further pointing out that "neither side is going to be completely satisfied" with the law. When questioned as to why there was a need for ADA, since most of its provisions already ex- isted insome form inother legisla- tion, she responded that ADA helped to organize "all of those elements under one resource," and that ADA provided a more formal process under which cases of dis- crimination could be resoJved. The final event, which oc- curred Friday afternoon in Union 104-106, was apanel of discussion with several members of the KenoshalRacine Disabled Commu- nity. Included among the panelists were a Kenosha businessman and political activist, a dental office secretary, a sales representative, and an accomplished criminal and business attorney. Present in the audience were Dr. William Streeter, Assistant Chancellor, Dale Wheeler, chemistry instructor.and several other University students and employees. Much of the discussion at the meeting was centered on the ac- complishments ofeach panel mern- ber, and how they hadeach learned tocope with and succeed inspite of ttheir disabilities. As phrased by Gerry Miller, the Kenosha attor- ney, "the only handicap is a bad attitude ...a disability does not have to be a handicap." Other points of interest dis- cussed included how other family members learn to cope with dis- abilities and a brief description of how someofthe ADA's new provi- sions would be affecting the Kenosha/Racine area. Soup and bread were served to attendees of the panel discussion, which was organized by Andrea Davis, a member of the college Committee for Disability Aware- ness Week.

"I'm disappointed that the board decided to repeal the rule," commented Lyall in an interview in the Milwaukee Sentinel, "but we are not going to letup in our efforts to protect our students from ha- rassment" Lyall added that options that could be considered in the future include: allowing deans on indi- vidual campuses to penalize stu- dents who use offensive speech; turning violators over to the court system; and discouraging such be- havior through student orientation programs. Anthony Brown, Director of the UW -Parkside Center for Edu- cational and Cultural Advance- rnent, believes the Board of Re- gents is merely "hiding behind" the free speech issue.

Chancellor Sheila Kaplan feels confidcnt that the removal of the hate speech language will not mean offenders will now go unpunished. "We already have, in UWS 17, sufficient authority to be re- sponsive to abusive behavior, and we have taken action before on this campus," noted Kaplan. "The repeal of the hate speech lan- guage simply means that we will continue to take action, except we'll take it under the other pro- visions of UWS 17. "We continue to have suffi- cient authority undercurrent state and system policies and legisla- tion to provide for an atmosphere of stability and tolerance," con- cluded Kaplan.

Clinton economic plan discussed via satellite Dennis Clarke News Editor A video town hall meeting sponsored by the Democratic Party of Wisconsin linked voters from nine locations throughout Wisconsin last Thursday night, including about 80 people at the UW-Parkside Communicatipn Arts Theatre. The forum, entitled "Puuing People First," dealt with Demo- cratic Presidential nominee Bill Clinton's economic plan for the nation. Panelists included: U.S. Senator Bill Bradley, D-New Jer- sey; Governor David Walters of Oklahoma; and U.S. Congres- sional nominees Peg LaUlenschlager and TO(jlBarrett, both from Wisconsin. Walters, Lautenschlager and Barrett were in Milwaukee; Bradley joined the conversation from Washington, D.C. "This is an auernpt to break open the political process, get away from the soundbites and paid advertising, and have a su~- stantive discussion on economic issues within the context of the fall campaign," commented Jeff Neubauer, chairman of the Demo- cratic Party of Wisconsin, at the program's outset After the hour-long statewide program ended, local labor and po- litical leaders stayed on to discuss various other issues brought up by the audience. Although there was some dis- cussion on issues such as racial har- . mony and drug use among youth, most of the statewidediscussion dealt with economic issues. Panelists outlined what the Democratic Party feels needs to be done to help the econom y. and how the Bush administration has failed to address economic issues. "We need to recognize that there is a need for change." commented Lautenschlager, a candidate from Wisconsin's 6th Congressional Dis- trict "We need to recognize the con- cerns of working families and focus on issues like the budget deficit, re- building America, and investing in out children and in education. "We need to look at health care, which is a fundamental portion of that puzzle that allows us to experi- ence economic growth," continued Lautenschlager. "It's time to return to an economy where we stress produc- tion and not simply profits for a very few." GovernorWallers told the au- dience that voters should support Clinton because he has a plan for the economy, and Bush does not. "At least we have a plan." said Walters. "When you don't have a focus, there's not much you can do." Barrett, a candidate from the 5th Congressional District, also commented on Bush's ineffective- ness. "Little has been done." said Barrett of the Bush presidency. "The presi dent four years ago prom- ised to be the environmental presi- dent, but didn't really do anything there. He promised to be the edu- cation president, but didn't per- fonm there. "He doesn't seem to really be in the swing of things," said Barrett.
