United Council: Not What You Think Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document United Council: Not What You Think United Council delegates Dana Larsen and Matt Specht compare notes BOARD OF REGENTS DISCUSS ISSUES OF EDUCATION by Operations Manager Jeffrey Weniger and Editor-in-Chief Steven Moore still emphasize and place quality as our primary goal. Lyall further stated how important it is to pro- vide students with an educational experience in a "timely fashion." Students must also receive rea- sonable access to classes, library resources, student housing, acad- emic advising, counseling, and financial assistance. Her speech discussed ways of increasing enrollment by reach- ing out to more people outside of the community, especially to high school graduates and return- ing adult students. All UW- System universities can increase enrollment provided that the quality of education is not jeop- ardized, she added. Nit we con- tinue this, colleges and institu- tions around the nation will fol- low our lead and example." The Education Committee pro- posed a resolution (Assumptions and Principles For Enrollment Management ill-Planning Toward The Year 2000) addressing the steadily increasing high school students that have reached a his- toric high of 32 percent. A main principle of the resolution stated that "a proportion of projected enrollment demand will be accommodated without addition- al resources only when educa- tional quality is not jeopardized. When faced with a choice between maintaining educational quality within budgetary con- straints or providing access for students, the priority will be on quality." . The resolution also stated that "beginning in 1995, the number of high school graduates is pro- jected to increase steadily to the end of the century and beyond. A third phase of Enrollment Management, planning to the continued on pg 2 On Thursday, February 10, the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System held the first meeting of the year to discuss several resolutions, policies, and principles which will affect students, professors, and administrators at all UW- branches. UW-Parkside Interim Chancellor John Stockwell, Interim Provost/vice Chancellor Howard Cohen, and student John Stockwell Steven Moore attended the Education Committee which began with comments from the UW-System President Katherine Lyall. She stated how important and crucial it isto involve the students, parents, legislators, chancellors, faculty, and admin- iSlrators alike in "stretching the quality of education beyond the normal realms." With budget and financial con- I straints, Lyall continued, we must by Matthew Specht Assistant Feature Editor Every two years, the student body is presented with a referen- dum on the ballot. In this referen- dum, students decide whether or not to remain members of United Council. If the student body votes to be members, a seventy-five cent membership fee is added to you r semester bill. So what exacdy is United Council? Their latest constitution- al draft defines themselves as a "coalition of student governments whose purpose is representation of the rights and educational issues of UW System students through active involvement at all levels of government" To putthatin English, u.c. makes sure UW students know what's going on in state govern- ment as well as representing us. They meet roughly once a month, and Parkside tries to send seven voti ng delegates every time. Friday evenings, the sepa- rate committees meet Saturday mornings, the General Assembly meets. This weekend, there was an opening in the delegation, and I was fortunate enough to be able to go along. The rest of the dele- gation consisted of Eric Bovee, PSGA President (Presidents' Committee); Deb Cutler, PSGA senator (Executives' Committee); Mike Schaefer, PSGA senator (Academic Affairs Committee); Jennifer Buchholz (Women's Issues Committee); Dana Larsen, PSGA senator (Legislative Affairs Committee); and Mike Bovee (Shared Governance Committee). I admit that at first, I was apprehensive. A senator had given me the distinct impression earlier in the week that UW-P representation was of secondary importance on these trips; the real reason for going along was to get as drunk as possible. Well, my fretting was in vain. Instead of loud, obnoxious par- ties iasting through the night, groups of people gathered in hotel lobbies and corridors while discussing current issues. These students were intent on changing the UW system for the better- people actually cared and got involved. Friday night, i attended the Multicultural Affairs Committee. I was du Iy impressed by the fervor with which statistics were reviewed and decisions were made. Likewise, the General Assembly-although muddied by loads of political mumbo- jumbo-was filled to the rafters with people who jumped into what they were doing with ener- gy and optimism. One thing kept bothering me, though. Does UW-Parkside's stu- dent body know what's going on? Do they even care? The answer appears to be no, but it should be yes. Prepare to be informed. A resolution was just passed to allow for the release of a summa- ry of the resu Its of the students' evaluation of a teacher to the entire student body. These evalu- ations will also be used to influ- ence faculty promotions and salaries. Also passed were three bi lis that are to be sent to Wisconsi n legislation. Assembly Bill 1109 and its companion bill, Senate Bill 500, create a Board of Regents Nominating Council that would recommend 3 to 5 persons to the Governor for vacant Board positions. This bill would help create better representation on the Board of Regents. Instead of the Governor having complete control, he could only choose from this committee's recommen- dations. The last bill, Assembly Bill 33, is one that every student at UW- Parkside should be aware of and support. It is entitled the Undergraduate Tuition Cap Bill. This bill would cap undergradu- ate tuition in the UW system at 33% of instructional cost for in- state students and at 120% for out-of-state students. This is going to help restrain tuition increases and force UW system to bring in funding from other areas. It would also put a burden on the UW system to justify any increases in tuition. Since any increase above 33% would require a change in the law, it would be much more difficult to raise tuition (especially since U.c. has some say in state legis- lation). Obviously, a lot is going on in the United Council. If you feel a need to attend any U.c. delega- tion, feel free to contact PSGA President Eric Bovee or Vice President Bruce Rocco. Also, be su re to keep an eye on the Ranger for future events. It is obvious that you, as a student body, need to keep abreast of legislation-both at the state and campus level. Remember, you do have say so in what goes on. Get out there and VOTEI Read the Ranger I lt's your right and your responsibility. Multicultural Quiz Bowl slated for area students By: Erica L. Sanchez News Editor On February 26, approximately 1SO high and middle school stu- dents wi II come together to take part in the Fourth Annual Multi- cultural Quiz Bowl, which will be held at UW-Parkside from B a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Union. Sponsored by the UW-Parkside PreCollege Program's Cultural Awareness Leadership Council (CALC), the integral questions of the Quiz Bowl will be focusing on the achievements and attain- ments of people of color through- out the arts, education, govern- rnent, business, sports, and sci- ences. CALC is an organization that offers students of color acad- emic support programs and activ- ities throughout the year, and here they are providing several students the opportunity to express their knowledge of facts about individuals of diverse backgrounds and their historical accomplishments in various fields. The schools that will be partic- ipating in the Multi-cultural Quiz Bowl are: from Racine, Case High School, Horlick High School, Walden III High School, Washington Park High School, Gilmore Middle School, Jerstad Middle School, McKinley Middle School, Mitchell Middle School, and Starbuck Middle School; and Kenosha's Bradford High School, Tremper High School, Bullen Junior High School, Lance Junior High School, Lincoln Junior High School, McKinley Junior High School, and Washington Junior High School. "The Quiz Bowl," said lynn Mason, one of the coordinators of the event, "provides students in Racine and Kenosha with a chance to come together on both academic and social levels." Mason, along with Dawn Bradke and Joann Allain, are assistant Support Services supervisors who are coming together to coordi- nate the Quiz Bowl. Trophies and certificates will be bestowed on the winners of the Quiz Bowl, and the students that will be participating in it have been preparing all year with their teachers and UW-Parkside mentors. They will be given the chance to show thei r knowledge and win the contest on February 26, 1994. If you need more infonnation, call the Uw- Parkside School of Education at 595-2569. 2 Regents, continued from pg. 1 year 2000, must therefore take into careful account a broad range of operating assumptions about the future environment for higher education: the probable demand for university services, the expected level and flexibility of funding, the changing compo- sition and needs of the student body, the technological innova- tions and physical plantlimita- tions, and the public expectations for effectiveness and efficiency." Regent Paul Schilling had some skepticism about the resolution; he mentioned that we must be extremely cautious in our efforts to increase enrollment because we may not continue to have enough support for the additional students. "We must have strong commitment from legislators, if we continue to receive more stu- dents," he said. Increasing the numbers of students might have a drastic affect on the quality of education they receive, he added. "There's only so much money that we have ...we must have the money to do it." Senior Vice President Stephen Porch stated that the Board of Regents have demonstrated that if the enrollment increases, quality will not hamper. "If the quality of education goes down/ then we will have to readjust our poli- cies." Another item discussed at the Education Committee meeting was the lateral Review of Teacher Education Programs. The consultants of the Teacher Education Lateral Review, asked the UW System Administration to create a Master Plan for teacher education that "would focus on high priority, mission-related bachelor's and master's programs taking into consideration state and regional needs, supply and demand data, quality, cost effec- tiveness and available resources." The consultants have found that a vast array of programs are common across the UW system. These dupl ication of programs have resulted to an imbalance of supply and demand. Because of this, the University of Wisconsin System Administration and the institutions will respond to these recommendations. Itwas also stated that "by 1995, the Board of Regents will be presented with a Master Plan that encompasses the issues presented by the consul- tants." The Board of Regents also dis- cussed a research report of degrees conferred during the last academic year. The report reveals that "in the last academic year Ouly 1992 to June 1993), University of Wisconsin System institutions conferred 27,661 degrees, the highest number ever." The following and Infor- mation figures are highlights from the yearly report: • At the bachelor's level, the same discipline areas continue to rank among the top three. • Business management & administrative services, educa- tion, and social sciences consti- tuted 44.1 percent of all bache- lor's degrees conferred by UW institutions in 1992-93. • Business management & administrative services ranked as the number one discipline area throughout the 1980's and into the 1990's. Peaking in 198B-89 at 4,304 degrees, it still account- ed for almost 20 percent (4,094) bachelor's degrees awarded in 1992-93. After experiencing rapid growth beginning in 1985- 86, bachelor's degrees in the social sciences surpassed educa- tion degrees for second place in 1990-91, with 2,84B degrees conferred in 1992-93. Education programs produced 2,154 bache- lor's degrees in 1992-93. • One in three master's degrees is in education. • UW System institutions con- ferred 5,109 master's degrees in 1992-93. Approximately one third of all master's level degrees continue to be awarded in edu- cation (1,694), a proportion that has changed very little over time. Ranking second, business man- agement & administrative service (mainly MBA's) peaked in 1964- 85 at 649 and dropped back to 773 degrees by 1992-93. o largest number of doctoral degrees awarded is in engineer- ing. o The two UW System doctoral institutions conferred 771 doctor- al degrees in 1992-93; 676 at UW-Madison and 95 at UW- Mi Iwaukee. Approximately 16.0 percent of all doctoral degnees are in engineering (127). TIed for second was education and life sciences with 95 degrees award- ed in each of these disciplines. Physical sciences and social sci- ences ranked third and fourth respectively with 89 and 87 degrees awarded. The balance of the doctoral degrees were widely dispersed among the remaining 1B disciplines. • Women continue to make gains in their number and pro- portionate share of degrees awarded. • Women earned 54 percent of all degnees in 1992-93, and earned higher proportions of degrees than men at the master's (56.2%), bachelor's (54.2%) and associate (57.9%) levels. • The proportion of degrees going to minority students has increased again. o Of the 27,861 total degrees awarded by the UW System in 1992-93, 1,301 were awarded to rmnority students. Tho' .... ~ increase in degrees conferred for r minorities was at the bachelor's level with 933 degrees awarded in t992-93 compared to 812 in 1991 -92. An increase was also Ii' seen at the doctoral level, from : I 41 in 1991-92 to 48 in 1992093 I At the master's level the number· of degrees decreased slightly from 248 in 1991-92 to 241 in I 1992-93. , Every year, the President of the' I UW-System invites one student j leader from each university to a ' formal dinner at her house, the i Brittingham Mansion.

According to a report filed at the University, UW-Parkside was one of five UW-System campus- es with enrollment declines from fall 1995. Campuses at Oshkosh, Milwaukee, Platteville and' Stevens Point were below fall 1995 enrollments A total of six campuses missed their enroll- ment targets by one percent or more. However, increases in the num- ber of new transfer students who leave other colleges or universi- ties to attend UW-Parkside rose by 15 percent.

Gary Grace, sssistant chancellor of student affairs, said better job opportunities may also account for part of the current enrollment shortfall. "Most of the shortfall in stu- dent enrollment is from our adult students in the Racine area-s- the economy is so awfully good right now that people are more likely to pursue a job that is good rather than an education." Efforts to increase enrollment are currently being implemented by the University. Construction of a new student residence hall is presently underway, and when finished, is expected to house 400 students. +FALL, cont. on page 3 phase two of this expansion pro- ject, according to William Streeter, Assistant Chancellor of UW-Parkside. If approved, the plans then go to the state legisla- ture for funding ideas. The second phase consists of adding' on a new fieldhouse. The new fieldhouse would cover 58,504 square feet, and would house an indoor track. The sur- face would be very similar to the synthetic surface recently removed from the existing gym. The new gym would be used for track, tennis, soccer, and other sports. Currently, the outdoor sports, such as baseball, softball, and soccer, are having trouble finding a place to practice when the weather is not cooperating out- side. The new gym would solve this problem, and would give ample space to all the sport teams. "This would be a huge benefit to our outdoor teams," said Draft. The indoor sports, like bas- ketball, and volleyball would also be able to use the new facility. However, they will still play . their games and practice on the new wooden surface in the exist- ing fieldhouse. Draft said the project has been long in the making, and will ben- efit eversyone connected with the University. "Just to see the shovel hit the ground in March is going to be rewarding," explained Draft. BY RYAN VERBRUGGEN RANGER REPORTER Plans for the first phase of the Physical Education Building expansion project are expected to be set in motion early this spring, with several other key dates set. Ground breaking ceremonies are expected in mid March of 1997, and completion of the first phase is expected by August of 1998, according to Linda Draft, Associate Athletic Director at UW-Parkside. "We are one more year behind schedule than where we would like to be," said Draft. The first phase of the project includes remodeling of the first floor to provide additional locker room space, a new training room, weight room, and equipment issue room. The second floor will also have work done on it. This includes an additional class- room, office space, and a dance/aerobics studio. Before any of this can happen though, some details still need to be worked out. In January of 1997, plans will be released for bids to the contractors. Approximately one month- later, the bids will be awarded for con- struction, and then the building can begin. The ground breaking ceremony is not the only big event happen- ing in March. The Wisconsin Building Commission will again meet in the spring, and either approve or disapprove plans for Enrollment at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside is down 6.5 percent, and is expected to cause a $780,000 shortfall in revenue from tuition. UW-Parkside's total enrollment for the 1996 fall semester is 4,538, down from 4,851 in 1995. The University missed its full- time-equivalent enrollment target by 340 students. This figure is nearly 10 percent below the pro- jected target. The University is currently tak- ing steps in anticipation of the , projected deficit. Early corrective steps include: • Leaving some staff vacan- eies unfilled. • Using part-time professors to teach classes where faculty members have left. • Eliminating or cutting spending for some supplies and equipment. badly in need of a new transmit- ter that would give the radio sta- tion a stronger signal for long-: range broadcasting.

ESTABLISHED 1972 Contest aimed to increase athletic atten- dance;"flip the bill" for tuition costs BY MARK HAHN NEWS EDITOR Students now have a chance to take time out to attend sport- ing events while at the same time covering their tuition costs in a new contest offered this year at the University of Wisconsin- Parks ide. Each time a student attends a home volleyball match, basket- ball game, or wrestling dual meet this year at UW-Parkside, they can sign their name at the desig- nated place and time and enter themselves into a drawing to be held at the last home basketball game of the season. The contest provides a way for students to get their tuition at the in-state rate paid for next fall, or get reimbursed for the tuition students pay second semester if they graduate at the end of the academic year. Student fees are not included. "We're trying to do something positive to provide more oppor- tunities to get students involved with campus events," explained Dr. Lenny Klaver, director of athletics. "UW-Parkside is pri- marily a commuter school and it's harder to get students who don't live on campus to get involved. This could be a way to get people to come to athletic events who might otherwise not come." Klaver also said that poor atten- dance at sporting events such as men's basketball games can have a negative impact on the perfor- mance of athletic teams. "It can be a dismal to student athletes performing when there is nobody watching in the stands;' explained Klaver. "This could be a way to develop enthusiasm as well as give students some incen- tive to get involved." Klaver commented that a lot of students at the University may not be aware of what level of competition UW-Parkside's ath-, letic teams play at in their respective conference. "In basketball, the Great Lakes Valley Conference is outstand- ing," said Klaver. "The confer- ence is recognized very highly in NCAA Division II Basketball." Each time a student attends an athletic event at UW..Parkside and signs up for the contest, they increase their chances of win- ning. Students can sign their names on a slip of paper handed out at the beginning of the event when they show their valid UW- Parkside IDs, and students can put the slip into the designated box that is available on their way out after the event. A schedule of UW- Parkside's sporting events can be picked up at the Athletic Office or at the student Donn Office. Students are allowed only one entry per night, and only current UW-Parkside students are eligi- ble to enter. Scholarship' ath letes are not eligible to enter the con- test. __________________ -...;1 •oMSA coordinator's retire- ment/page 5 • Brad Pitt's Twelve Monkeys now on video/page 8 •Women's Volleyball team returns home for two games this week- end/page 9 VOLUME 25 • ISSUE 8 • OCTOBER 24, 1996 PHOTO BY SCOTT KOLP 'with kallo,,,een )"st ato"nd the Cotnet, many lo<al people a,e getting into the SPIAIT <,lo P"" intended) IBOOI Presidential Pre-Election Held at University Bookstore RANGER NEWS REPORT .

Approximately 17-20 students were on hand to attend each meeting, and discussed objec- tives set up by radio station per- sonnel in order to help get the Radio Club off to a functional start. The radio station has currently set up three goals in order to accomplish this. The first and most difficult is to obtain radio frequency through the approval of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) The second goal is to acquire efficient funds to help buy equipment and publi- cize the radio station's revival. The third goal is to fill the now vacant radio room with equip- ment desperately needed in order for the station to operate effi- ciently. Dianna Duwe, president of the Radio Club, is currently in the process of writing up contracts and outlines of the radio station's needs in order to present them to the surrounding community for support, donations and recogni- tion. The radio station hopes to obtain funding from area busi- nesses in exchange for on-air publicity. The radio station also hopes to receive donations from other organizations on campus. , "The purpose of trying to re- establish this organization is to inform, entertain and become a morale booster, not only for the students and staff at UW- Parkside, but also for the Racine and Kenosha communities," explained Radio Club member Nicole Sicuro. Radio station personnel feel that having a radio station on campus could help the other organiza- tions under the S.O.C. (Students Organizations Council) umbrella advertise their events across cam- pus. "Presently, UW-Parkside's enrollment is down, and advertis- ing on the air would be a great way to get the word out and inter- est people in obtaining informa- tion about the facilities UW- Parkside has to .offer,' explained Radio Club member Michelle Hansen. Mike Graczyk, another student involved with the Radio Club, commented: "There are a lot of strikes against us right now, but we are working hard to change people's views about starting up the radio station again." The Radio Club is currently looking for support and help with fundraising from interested stu- dents and faculty members. Anyone interested in learning about the radio broadcasting industry is welcome to attend weekly meetings, held on Thursdays at 12:15 p.m, in the Union Recreation Center.

Victims are confident that "something is going to be done about it and that the investigation is fair and thorough and that there will be no retaliation:' Westerhaus outlined the steps the University takes in investi- gating reports of harassment: *The Affinnative Action Department must have consent from the victim to investigate. *A statement is taken from the vic- tim describing the incident and giv- ing any other information. *The alleged harasser is contacted and informed that heishe has been . implicated, and hislber statement is taken. "Investigators inform the alleged harasser that they have been asked to investigate.

"A ''fact finding" investigation is held which leads to' the harasser. *Reconunendations are made to alle- viate the situation, or a settlement is made to leave the victim alone, a warning is issued to the harasser, or . heishe is ordered to attend counseling. • Guilty parties may be punished for their actions.

We can't stop it if people don't come for- ward." A random sexual assault recent- ly occurred at Carthage College. The female Carthage student was in an isolated music room in the Johnson Art Center on February 10, when a suspect turned out the lights to the practice room, placed a hat over her face and attacked her. The suspect is a 25-30 year old white male with short, strawberry blond hair and a light 5 o'clock shadow. He is an unknown man approximately 6 feet tall with a muscular, "football like build." He was wearing a dark brown, waist length leather bomber coat and black suede or leather gloves. According to Detective Kristine Block of the Kenosha Police In the wake of the Chancellor's statement regarding harassment, the Ranger News spoke with Charlotte Westerhaus, the assistant to the Chancellor for Equity and Diversity. As stated in the Feb. 13 issue of the Ranger News, stu- dents, faculty and staff who feel they are victims of sexual harass- ment, or any other form of harass- ment, should contact the Affirmative Action office at ext 2369 or visit Wyllie Hall 340. Asked who the typical victim is, Westerhaus said that there are no typical victims. Anybody who feels that he/she is harassed or dis- criminated against based on race, religion, gender or other differ- ences is a victim of harassment. There is no typical form of harass- ment experienced on campus. There are incidents that range from the most subtle to the most overt, and most are ~ either sexual or racist in nature. Every incident that occurs on campus differs in some respects, but all can tarnish personal feelings of equity and human dignity. Victims should get suggestions and learn how to deal with the various forms of harassment. A majority of incidents occur when the offending individual feels that he/she won't get caught. These are often the worst and most isolated of the incidents. Other incidents occur in more public forms, though most take place in private. or when there are no witnesses. The most difficult cases occur when the perpetratortries to stay anonymous, such as in the act of passing anonymous letters.

Also, each team may paint a win- dow panel on the Union bridge "and relate it to their team or club," explained Lundskow. That panel is "also an event. And even though the winners of this year's carnival have not even been announced yet, Lundskow encourages students who enjoy the carnival to help plan it for next year. A group of students form the Winter Carnival committee each year and help spearhead the events. To most people a carnival means a carousel, games, and cotton candy. With the exception of the carousel, University of Wisconsin-Parkside stu- dents can attend an indoor carnival, called the Winter Carnival, on earn- pus this week. A week-long carnival with wacky, spirited, team events might he just what UW-Parkside students need in the middle of the semester. "Winter Carnival is really just to have fun doing some fun things. When it's wintertime and it's cold we're all down," said Amber Lundskow, student activities program coordinator. The tradition of having a week- long carnival during spring semester began in the 1980's. It is always held at the end of February. This year's carnival theme is Mardi Senator Feingold keynote speaker at dinner Senator Russell D. Feingold will be the Keynote Speaker at the Kenosha County Democratic Party Annual Dinner on Saturday, February 22, 1997.

HARRIS COMM 250 real focus is to give an informa- tive warning and prevent the stu- dent from a future predicament that might get them in a lot of trouble and possibly mark their record for life. The student is informed of the zero tolerance of drug misuse on the Parks ide cam- pus, and that there would be a problem if anyone gets caught using drugs. If caught, the person would be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The program was instituted to let the students know that the police know what's going on in Housing and if they get caught, they will be prosecuted. Word spreads quickly around campus; chances are if a student is involved in misuse, he or she will be exposed. The good part about the "Knock and Talk" Program is that students are reporting on other students, this is to say that there are some responsible students who want to do the right thing and will not tolerate having their environment com prom ised. The University of Wisconsin- Parkside will hold its third annual Creative and Research Recognition Day on April 25 from 10 a.m. to I p.m. in Main Place. The Recognition Day gives stu- dents the opportunity to present their projects to other students and faculty. The students will be provided a 4foot by 8 foot poster board to explain their topic, their research questions and the answers they have d iscovered, Some special equipment will also be provided such as computers, easels and tables will be made available for displaying their work. "Recognition Day is a wonderful opportunity for students to show off their w.ork that they have been working on all year," said Dr. Dale Wheeler of the Chemistry Department who also leads the project. Recognition Day is available to all students who have finished a directed studies course in any department during the past year. Directed studies give the hands-on Drug activity has been report- ed in Housing. Most of the infor- mation is being reported by other students living in the dorms or visitors to the dorms who do not approve of it. "We have instituted a pro- gram that we hope will curtail the activity. It's called the' Knock and Talk' Program," says Police Chief Robert Deane. The pro- gram works by University Police knocking on the doors of students who might be involved in the misuse. The Officers start by telling the student that they are suspected of being involved in the misuse and then perm ission is .asked to search their room. They then sit down with the student to talk about the drug use and th repercussions of drug use and the consequences of the use on cam- pus. University Police want the students to know that the focus is not to arrest/ ticket them. The Mark Bernhardt, former UW- Parkside physics major, showed his project to Jack Elmore and Jim Sheageology at last year's Recognition Day. experience that most classroom-orient- ed courses lack. A directed study helps to strengthen the student's resume and it appeals to future employers. These projects require a lot of time and energy by the students. The Research and Creative Activities Day is a wonderful way of encouraging these students and gives them the opportunity to show fellow students and faculty what they have done. This year's Recognition Day will include projects from the Chemistry, Sociology, Art, Philosophy, Physics and Biology Departments .• Letter to the Editor: ~~~ Sports Editor AI Heppner Copy Editor Jim Hendrickson My name is Bert Cattelino, a retired Kenosha auto assembly plant worker, with a friendly reminder about a fast approaching milestone for the University of Wisconsin- Parkside. Monday, May 5, will mark exactly thirty years aeo that Wisconsin Governor Warren P. Knowles signed into I~wSenate Bill 38S which empowered Kenosha county to transfer 690 acresof land for the proposed new UWP campus to the state of Wisconsin. I would like to share some of my cherished memories withthe students in general. On behalf of the United Auto Workersunion Local 72, I was present in Madison for this historic signing. If this particular bill had failed to pass in the lezislature the Parkside <> , dream would never have gotten off the ground. My other fellow umon brothers also on hand for this auspicious occasion were Assemblyman George Molinaro, State Senator Joseph Lourigan, and Jack Beni, OUf education Committee chairman. After affixing his signature to Bill 38S in 1967, the governor presented the pen he used in the ceremony to me. The pen anda photograph of the gala occasion later were mounted on a special plaque authorized by our union president Rudy Kuzel who in tum had me present the plaque to UWP Chancellor Alan Guskin. My role in assisting with the creation of UWP was to confront a stubborn Republican floor leader, Assemblyman Paul Alphonsi, who finally agreed to support our four year campus hopes. Inaddi- non the tireless efforts of that terrific trio, namely Kenosha news- paper reporter Harlan Draeger, businessman George Connolly,and county board supervisor Peter Marshall more than paid off inhelp- 109to establish Parkside.

Each organization is search- ing for ample and efficient space to house their equipment and meetings. According to Dean Stephen McLaughlin, the space in Molinaro Level 4 has been granted to WPRS, but it still subject to change. An October 10th date has been set to find adequate room for PAW. Conflicting views still stand in the issue of the space problem. According to Student Organizations Council (SOC) secretary Teri Jacobson. PAW was an inactive member of SOC at the end of last semester. Their lack of attendance at SOC meetings caused PAW to lose their budget. Jacobson also stat- ed that proper notification was sent to PAW. PAW President. Andrew Kenth on the other hand, responded that he was not informed of this information and that Paw was an active club, raising $2000 over the semester. One opinion of the Facilities Planning Committee is that there is a stronger academic link between the radio station and academics than the Wargamers and academics. Because the space is in an academic building, this plays a large role in the decision. The radio station will be directly associated with the communications department and hopefully broadcasting classes will be offered in correlation with the station, and PAW is associated with the history department. . Another factor in the decision of room placement is of cost and conve- nience. Student funding will have to provide $80 per foot of wire connecting the station to the antenna, the higher the room, the more cost effective the station will be. Another issue is the need for an outside entrance, which Molinaro L4 offers. PAW and WPRS are willing to work the issue out. An offer was made by PAW to share the space; however, due to the amount of people that would be sharing the space, Risk Management rejected this offer. This is yet one more reason that the station would be better suited for Moln L4.· The-chance of risk is much lower with one or two people in the room at a time than the larger group of people that game in the PAW room. President of PAW stated that the. club was simply looking for a room of equal size. "There are several members of PAW that are interested in the station, so it is not an anti-radio situation," stated President Andrew Kenth, "we just want an acceptable room." Stephanie Hess, assistant station manager of WPRS, agreed that it was not a club vs. club debate. "We never pushed for the room. We hope that the Wargamers will be able to use our sta- tion by broadcasting a show on the air," stated Hess. She added that the faster this issue be cleared up, the sooner WPRS will be broadcasting. , Students playing games in the Union Recreation Center.

"--- -""- PSGACorner Coleen Tartaglia Editor-in-chief This week, Pro-Tempore Zac Pawlowski introduced Resolution # 97 B~I, a new treasurer was appointed and a re-election for the senate seats because of a technicality. Resolution # 97 B-1 was intro- duced in the best interest of the ""dents at UW-Parkside. It contains a lot of tech- nical jargon, but it is basically this: if for any reason, funds need to be taken out of any type of budget in PSGA, a typed copy of the allocated funds must be given to every mem ber in attendance at the meetings. The next week it will be voted on whether or not the money will be withdrawn from the budget. In the event of an emergency, this waiting peri- od may be waned." An emergency is defined as, "An action that is absolutely necessary to the continued existence of PSGA .... [arid] determined by a unani- mous vote of the senate." Newly appointed Treasurer DeShon Jackson has been at UW- Parkside since 1994, is a graduating senior, a history minor, president of his fraternity "Iota Phi Theta", is Seargent at Arms at BSU and a member of the Stallion Study Club. Because of a technicality, last week's nominees were voted on again. The five nominees from last week were in the running this week, and with the re- voting, Chris Leipski and Coleen Tartaglia were elected as spring senators, and there was a two-way tie between Luis Benevoglienti and Camel ius Russel. The deciding vote for the tie will be held this Friday. Vice-President Corey Mandley apologized for any inconvenience this technicality may have caused anyone. Problems with Parkside's mission statement Rebecca Vankervoorde News Editor When this years new mission statement came up f9r approval, ques- tions were raised as to why past state- ments concerning managerial and tech- nological areas were being dropped. The mission statement outlines the goals and values to guide the school in serving the public. "The current statement says the region is adapting to a changing indus'tri- aI-technological society," said George Perdikaris, professor and chairman of the computer science and engineering , department. "It says the university .. offers professional and preprofessional programs. It's good to say we are offer- ing the opportunity to get jobs in those areas." On September 23, a revised mission statement approved by the University Planning Council was sent to each of Parkside's four governance groups for further approval. If it is approved by each group, it will be con- sidered by the Board of Regents at its November meeting. attested a \)W-P student for Oil ppg after revocation.

Open message to students living on campus regarding false fire alarms Campus blood drive November 24 Scott Sheriff Student Health and Counseling Center and the Molecular Biology Club are sponsoring a blood drive on Monday, November 24, 1997. The drive will be held in Union 104-106 from 9:00am until 1:30pm. Only 4% of the eligible population donates blood. Last year, only 39 people from the entire UW-Parkside campus donated. Your donation is needed and could save a life. Every three minutes, a hospital patient in our area will need a blood transfusion. On average, 585 pints of whole blood and blood components are transfused to patients in our area every day of the year. Blood is composed of trillions of tiny cells suspended in a yellow fluid called plasma. The red cells carry oxy- gen from the lungs to all parts of the body, white cells help combat disease and infections, and the platelets help to stop bleeding when injury occurs. After blood is donated, it can be separated into three components - that means that three peo- Ie could benefit from your donation. ~ d cells are used for surgical procedures a:d treating people with anemia. The plasma helps patients with hemophilia and other bleeding disorders. And the platelets can be used for open-heart surgery, and for cancer and leukemia patients on chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Giving blood poses no risk to the donor. The average adult has 10-12 pints of blood, so one pint will not be missed. After donating, you will feel fine. You can resume your normal rou- tine but should avoid strenuous exercise for 4-6 hours. The needle that is used is brand new, sterile, and disposable. There is NO chance of gelling AIDS by donating blood. To be a blood donor, you need to be at least 17 years old and weigh at least 110 pounds. Also, you need to have not ever had hepatitis nor have had any of . the risk factors or behaviors associated with AIDS. On the day of the donation you should be free of major cold, flu, and allergy symptoms. All blood types are needed. So, please, if you are eligible, consider. donating blood on November 24. To obtain more information, or to sign up to donate, call 595.2366. . News November 13, 1997·page 2 PSGA Corner Coleen Tartaglia Editor-in-chief Article II. Section II. Objective: "The PSGA shall be responsible to the students of UW-Parkside. The PSGA will be proactive and reactive on issues that have a potential impact on students at UW-Parkside. The PSGA shall have the power to enforce and protect the following articles [as stated in the PSGA constitution] by passing motions, resolu- tions, or taking legal action to insure that no student's rights are violated." PSGA holds the Parks ide Student Government Association's general assembly meetings on Fridays at noon in room CART 129. This week's topics included the HUD grant, more about stu- dent advising, and Justice and Senate seats that are open. The HUD grant was awarded to UWP to help improve Kenosha and Racine communities by way of volun- teers from faculty, staff and students over the next three years. This project is called the Community Outreach Partnership Center (COPC). Organizations on campus are encouraged to make this a team effort to improve communities surrounding Parkside. They share an office with the Teaching Center located at WYLL 107B, next to the Advising Center. Ideas and suggestions are strongly encouraged for new ideas. Stop by their office for more informa- tion. Teri Jacobson and Stephen McLaughlin shared news from the Advising Meeting. Some questions they want students to answer are regarding Student Orientation classes. Should there be separate advising/registration/orienta- tion segments or should it be all together as one? Would it be easier for freshman to be sent the University catalogs and Course Schedules a few weeks prior to Orientation, so they have a chance to look at it before jumping right into everything at once? Student's input is essential for this decision. Please take the time to talk to or e-mail your Senators. There are Justice seats open. A Justice is the "Watchdog" group of the Senate.

The \998 election had the sec- ond largest voter tum out. Mandley attributes this to advertisement and desire of the candidates. The newly elected student gov- ernment is the most diverse ever, with 13 black members, 2 latino members and 5 white members. Mandley, who is also president of BSU, plans to take a strong stand on the diversity issue here at Parkside while in term as President. Along with the issue of diversi- ty, Mandley feels there are many topics to address. First, he plans to reorganize the PSGA office making it a more busi- ness like atmosphere and a place that students will feel comfortable coming to. He stressed that he wanted students to be able to come to him with sugges- tions and ideas. In addition, with the help of Yolanda Green, Mandley plans to make PSGA more known on campus and decrease the amount of apathy. He would like to see students involved with the organization. Rally for Diversity II Another subject that Mandley will look into is the police policy of a full time gun status. He wants to make sure that students are comfortable with this matter. One more police issue he is going to look into is the fact that offi- cers.have a master key to each donn. He stated that some students feel that it is a breech of their Constitutional rights for this policy to take place. According to Mandley, he will begin work with the administration to raise enrollment by focusing on sur- rounding urban areas, Chicago and Milwaukee. He would also like to beg- ginning more pre-college programs which will boost interest in Parkside. Other issues include: food ser- vice, United Council, Wisconsin Legislation and the bookstore. Mandley stated, "I have a large task ahead of me, there are so many things that we can do on this campus." He continued, "I need to thank God, without him, I wouldn't be where \ am today. \ also need to thank all of the people who helped me." "I have the greatest resect for Teri Jacobson," remarked Mandley, "She is very dedicated and I wish her the best." Amanda Bulgrin Editor-In-Chief There was a large amount of administrative members at the rally. According to a survey that they filled out, they feel Parks ide needs to be more diverse. In response, Mandley stated that if they really felt this way, a change would be made. "The rally was a success," said Mandley, "but this isjust the beginning ofa long road." Among the speakers were Mandley, Jason Stein, Jason Mcneil, Charlotte Westerhaus, head of affirma- tive action, Dr. James Kinchen, an asso- ciate professor of music and the only African American male faculty member, Rosemary Scott and Marin Ocha Jr., a member of Latinos Unidos. On Tuesday, February 24, Rally for Diversity II was held at the University of Wisconsin Parkside. Organized by Corey Mandley, BSU President, the second rally of this nature stressed the need to open lines of com- munication on campus concerning diver- sity. "If there isn't an increase in diversity within one year, there will be a petition sent around for the chancellor's resignation," stated Mandley. He continued by saying, "We are not looking to simply raise the num- bers, we want qualified professors." Together, BSU, LU, MSA, PIC, and PSGA will form a committee with students to work on the issue of diversi- ty and decide on the petition. News March 12, 1998 page 2 GUliS,Gangs, Drugs, and Rape on Campus Interview with Chief Deane News Editor Becky Bergman I was asked a lot about the police beats in the Ranger a while back about drugs found on campus as well as gang activities. I decided to do some digging into the subject so I went to the UW Police Dept. right here on campus at Tallent Hall. I called up for an appointment with the Chief of Police, Chief Deane, and asked for an interview so I could inform the students on this matter. What I found out was very informational. I asked him various questions from drugs on campus to rape. I first asked him why he thought that college students commit crimes on campus. His response was simply "not all students get into trouble, it's usually personal conflict, or not being accustomed with living on a diverse campus with diverse opinions." I agreed with him on this. If you are not accustomed to different cultures, then you feel out of place and you feel like you need to fit in. I then asked him about the police beats in the past and the reports of drugs and gangs on campus. I first found out about drugs on campus. He told me that there was "mostly mari- juana, but there are alleged drugs float- ing around like pills etc." I then asked how much a ticket for possession of marijuana is if you are found with it on campus. Chief Deane told me "it varies, but it's about $209.00 for the first offense." I was blown away, let me tell you. I thought that for some reason it would be more than that but I guess I was wrong. We got into talking about drinking and how much it would cost for a first offense and a second offense ticket. Chief Deane gave me figures that I thought were fair. He said "the first offense is $209 and the second is $339." He told me that in his 3 and a half years here on campus, there have _ only been a small amount of drugs found. In my opinion, with this small of a campus, I don't see how anyone could get into trouble, but I guess it happens. I then asked about gangs on campus and guns. Chief Deane told me simply "those are alleged and the people in gangs come to the university." "We as a university discourage gang activity in the college setting" said the Chief. Now me personally, I don't really see the need to be affiliated with a gang on campus. There are so many things that happen on campus in the way of dances and fun activities, why ruin it with gangs?! We then switched the subject to community policing on campus. I asked him about it and where the police go to the most, Ranger Hall or the Apartments. Chief Deane simply said "both, we have community police in both the apartments and ranger hall: the cost of service goes to both places." I had no idea that they had a community police officer in the apartments. I thought that it was just in Ranger Hall. I mean I see the officer walking around in Ranger, but I've never seen an officer in the apartments. Next on my list of questions for the Chief, I asked him about rape and if it was reported what happens to the victim and the person who raped. Chief Deane told me that if a rape was reported, evidence is taken, and the per- son who raped is taken through the jus- tice system: but it's up to the victim if they want to report it or not. He told me that the police give the victim respect in that situation. "We try to make it easy as in asking them when, where, and how it happened. This usu- ally makes the victim uncomfortable but it is required of us to ask by law" Chief' Deane remarked. I then asked him the percentages of rapes on campus. He said "some were reported, but the peo- ple didn't cooperate in the matter." I as a female on campus was really curious of how many rapes actually were report- ed on campus in the past 4 years. I got surprising results. In the past 4 years here at Parks ide, there has been I rape reported; an investigation determined it to be unfounded which means that it didn't happen. The victim was either confused or made it up. I was shocked but the thing that I still wonder is how many actually occur on campus that are never reported. / This report was not to scare anyone, but merely inform all students here at Parkside on a variety of subject ranging from drugs to rape. I hope this article opened some eyes and make stu- dents realize that crime is out there; it doesn't go away.

(This week the Resoultion was passed. See below.) The two new advisors are Assistant to the Chancellor for Equity and Diversity, Chari one Westerhaus, and Chief of the University of Parkside Police, Robert Deane. Dean of Students, Stephen McLaughlin, is the current advi- sor and will also be next semester's advi- sor. A Resoultion is a suggestion made to the student body (all the senators) regarding anything that affects students on campus. PSGA introduces it at a meeting, discusses it at the next meeting, then votes to pass or fail at the second or third meeting. President Corey Mandley intro- duced the Resoultion this week. It said that UW-P doesn't have students on UW- P's Faculty Search and Screen Committees (A S &S Committee hires new professors, faculty, and administra- tion personnel), and we need two students admitted on all Faculty Search and Screen Committees, one of which would be a minority student. Other UW system schools allows students to be on their committees, and so should UW-P. It also said that PSGA will pick the students who will be on those Committees, [so the deci- sion is not left up to the faculty and staff, but to the students at UWPj. At this week's PSGA meeting, . the Resolution passed through PSGA. I asked Corey when this would go into effect. He said, "As soon as we get the Fauclty Search & Screen Committee to approve it." He said he would present it at the next S&S Committee meeting. The next S&S meeting is April 21 at 3,30 in MOLN 0137. All students are welcome to attend. When the S&S Committee approves it, it will be placed in the Wisconsin Parks ide Search and Screen Committee For Faculty, Staff, and Limited Appointment Handbook. Lastly, SUFAC is the committee that handles all segregated fees (fees we pay with our tuition). Three SUFAC members were voted in todayChris Leipski, Luis Benevioglio, and Elise Cochran.

And because of my Biblical education, a number of things which he had maintained sounded suspicious at the very least. One comment he had made which I hold most suspect, is his challenge to the authority of the Apostle Paul and the inspi- ration of the Pauline Epistles. The minister had asserted that Paul added his own opin- ion on matters of homosexuality in the first chapter of Romans. The suggestion of Paul inserting his own opinion, I think, is a posi- tion highly dangerous for any Christian to maintain. The reason being, how can the Christian reasonably distinguish between which New Testament passage is inspired by God and which is inspired by man? Certainly it can be noted that each person differs in their aspects of discernment. The minister's reply to this was, "Let your con. science be the judge." Now to me, this is an odd position to maintain because I understand the philosophy of human con- science and it is a tricky matter. Firstly, a person's conscience may indicate what is right or what is wrong, but it does not follow that a person will abide by it. Secondly, a person' conscience is absolutely private, so there is no way to make certain whether and individual will reveal what their conscience truly indicates; and in an attempt to find this truth only leads back to the integrity of the person involved, which in this case, is already under scrutiny. Thirdly, the Heterosexual's conscience may tell him that homosexuality activity is wrong, whereas the homosexu- al's conscience may tell him that homosex- ual activity is right. If this is the case, then the conscience certainly seems to be condi- tioned by many factors. Such factors can be a person's cultural background, a per- son's upbringing, or even a person's moral training. In any case, the Christian who believes that an individual's conscience should judge the validity of certain scrip- tures, presupposes that people will have the integrity to conform to the laws of their conscience. Second, if the conscience is conditioned by the environment, then it would not serve as a tool to assess objec- tively what is right or what is wrong, but rather it would be a tool which may mis- lead the operator subjectively into self- deception. And most importantly to the Christian, it should be noted that a Christian's conscience is to be refined by the use of scripture, and not the scripture that is to be refmed by the use of a Christian's conscience. Ifnot taken seri- ously, this minister's view can grant indi- viduals unlimited power to extract from the scriptures what they wish, and to exclude scriptures which do not confirm to their preconceived notions. The notion that Paul inserted his personal opinion about homo- sexual relations is untenable for Christians. For if so, then one could easily maintain that Matthew inserted his own opinion on whether the Sermon on the Mount really occurred. Maybe Mark inserted his own opinions about particular parables given by Jesus. Perhaps John inserted his own opin- ion about Christ's divinity or even his res- urrection for that matter. Ultimately, to Bible believing Christians, this view conve- niently delimits God's authority in the New Testament and consequently detracts from the Christian's reliance upon God and His Word. Issues Aaron Rodriguez On Thursday, I attended a sympo- sium which discussed homosexuality and the conjoined prejudices which seems to be its natural consequence. On the stage, was an active panel of gay-rights advocates that expressed their opinions about several issues pertaining to the controversial Reggie White speech, various Biblical commandments, homosexual discrimina- tion, and the heterosexual's homophobia. The panel's opinions were interesting, but what attracted my curiosity was a man on the panel who professed to be a gay minis- ter. To my ears, the words, "gay minister" sounds, prima facie, like an oxymoron. But to the gay minister this was certainly not the case. As a matter of fact, he contended quite the contrasty that being a practicing homosexual and being a Christian are Biblically compatible. As a Christian, I fmd myself Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
