Soccer men win conferencelhost NCAAD2 plaJoff SaturdaJ The UW-Parkside men's soccer team won the Great Lake Valley Conference (GLVC)title with three tournament victories, including a 2-0 win in the championship game Sunday against Quincy College. Coach Rick Kill's' team now takes a shot at the national title starting with a home NCAA Division ITplayoff game Saturday. As has been the case all season, the Rangers relied on the goalkeeping magic of Thorn Peer, a stingy defense, and clutch goal scoring to win the title for the first time after six consecutive trips to the GLVC Final Four. Peer stopped five shots Sunday to record his NCAA Division IT record 17th shutout of the season. The whitewash lowered his nation-leading goals against average to 0.23. UW-Parkside has allowed five goals in 21 games. The clutch goal scoring on Sunday came from Casey Pawlak who tallied with help from Seth Pearson at the 15- minute mark of the title game. Adam Chwala then added an unassisted insurance goal at 44 minutes to secure the title-winning victory. Afterward, Coach Kill'S sounded relieved to have the championship. "We've gone to the well six times now. If we'd come home empty again, 1 don't know what would be next," Kill'S told the Racine Journal Times. "Tills year's team was very deserving. They played exceptionally well this weekend." What's next for the Rangers is an NCAA Division II tournament game against GLVC rival Lewis University. The game will be played Saturday, Nov. 11 starting at 1 p.m. at Wood Road Field. The Rangers had to play almost as well as they did Sunday just to reach the championship game. The march to the title began with a hard fought 2-0 win over Northern Kentucky on Wednesday, Nov. 1. Raymond James scored the winning goal with 4:05 left in the game with assists by Mike Samer and Bill Weidel. Weidel then added an insurance goal with 37 seconds left, and UW-Parkside earned a trip to Romeoville, Ill., for the GLVC Final Four. GOAL!

Photo by Jeff Alley. On Saturday, Nov. 4, Dan de Sf. Aubin scored in the 47th minute and Peer was peerless in goal in a 1-0 win over top-seeded Lewis University. Then Peer, and the nation's topranked defense NCAA Division II defense4 brought the title home. "We played ferocious defense," said Kill'S. "We couldn't have done any more then ....we did." ~ ~ Secretarv of Education leads UWP Rallv for Gorellieberman ticket By Sarah Olsen "Everybody is into the business of education," said US Education Secretary Richard Riley, pictured at left, Thursday at the uw-Parkside Communication Arts Theatre. Riley visited the campus as a stop on a final campaign tour to rally support for Democrats Al Gore and Joe Lieberman. Also in attendance and speaking to support Gore / Lieberman was Bob WirCh, 22nd District State Senator. "Today we have both candidates talking about education, and both of them are indicating that certainly education is a priority" says Riley. The "Texas Miracle," according to Riley, is the "myth" Governor Bush has built his campaign on. "Believe me" said Riley, "there is no miracle happening there. All of education [performance] is up and so is Texas." Riley states that SAT scores in Texas have dropped 3 points during the period Governor Bush has been in office, while SAT scores nationally have increased by 9 points. "If [Texas] is a miracle, the country is a miracle," says Riley. Governor Bush claims that the United States is in an education recession, according to Riley. "There is not an education recession. The idea that there is some kind of slump or recession-I disagree," he said. To disprove the second "myth" of an education recession, Riley stated that every test administered nationally has shown significant increases in reading and math skills in 4th, 8th, and 12th grades with more students finishing high school and college. Riley says Al Gore is a strong believer in the federal government having a part in education. "The federal government has a very important role to have priorities that are national in nature, such as our current goal to have smaller class size for those early years when a child is learning how to read, after-school programs, instruction programs, leaving the control in the local and - state schools," said Riley. Gore proposes to increase support programs for college, increase support of work-study, support the Hope scholarship, and support tax deductions for tuition up to $10,000 per person. "1 have known Al Gore for a number of years and I tell you this: he is a _ person of good, strong character. Hehas high values. 1 am certain that you can be very proud of Al Gore as President and Joe Lieberman as VicePresident," Riley stated. -------- Ins ide 3 pNew Library Reading Room Opens Come in, relax ... and study.

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

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

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

Flu Vaccine Shortage Affecting UW-Parkside Students By Julie Thompson Don't let the cycle of mild weather fool you. Although, the weather throughout southeastern Wisconsin has been mild, flu season is approaching quickly. Unfortunately, like the rest of the nation, UW-Parkslde students will feel the effects of the flu vaccine shortage. Director of Student Health and Counseling Services, Michaelina Young, has been issuing e-mails to students and faculty members with updates on the vaccine shortage. The first e-mail was issued in September, with a glimmer of hope that UW-Parkside would receive 16% of the shipment by rnrd-October; 58% in November and the balance in December. But, October has come and gone and the staff at Student Health and Counseling Services is still waiting. Since the vaccine is effective 75% of the time, those who are high-risk should receive the vaccine as soon as it is available. People who are considered high risk are those who have depressed immune systems, the elderly (65 or older), have respiratory problems, and those who have occupations that put them at risk, such as health care workers. People who are not at risk are asked to wait until the shortage is over, allowing those who need it most the opportunity to avoid complications associated with the flu. In the meantime, Michaelina Young said, "Practice habits that help to avoid catching or spreading the flu and common cold: wash your hands often, cover your mouth when you cough, and don't share food and drinks."

November 9, 2000 The Ranger, University of Wisconsin-Parkside Page 6 UWP students prep for Hunger Strike Nov. 15 UW-Parkside graduating communication students will stage Hunger Strike 2000, an event to help the homeless, Wednesday, Nov. 15. The Senior Seminar class will raise money and collect non-perishable food items with all proceeds going to the Shalom Center, an organization that provides food and shelter for Kenosha area homeless people .. Hunger Strike 2000 activities include a bowling fund-raiser and an overnight sleep-out. Starting at 5 p.m., members of the UW-Parkside Faculty and Staff Bowling League and Senior Seminar class members will bowl in the Student Union. They will raise money through pledges for each pin knocked down and fhrough general donations. Non-perishable food will be collected at that time. At 9 p.m., the event moves outside. Senior Seminar students will sleep outdoors to simulate the harsh conditions that face the homeless and to raise awareness of the less fortunate. "There are hungry ,People in southeastern Wisconsin,' said Senior Seminar class member Michaela Gaines. "These people need of our help. Any support people at UWParkside and ill the community can give us is appreciated." Hunger Strike 2000 coincides with National Homeless Awareness Week. Along with food and money, Senior Seminar class members will make a personal commitment to the homeless by donating a minimum of 20 volunteer hours per person to the Shalom Center. Remarkable Computer Programmers <> train at UW-Parkside by Dan Frake Earlier this year, UW Parkside Professor of Math Don Piele and a group of four high school students from across the U.S. competed in Beijing, China at the International Olympiad on Informatics (101). They came away with a few medals and a sense of having accomplished something truly admirable. Prior to 1992, Professor Piele was the organizer of a nation-wide competition called USACO, a competition here in the u.s. for high school computer programmers. Then, in 1992, Professor Piele learned of the 101 and the rest, as they say, is history. Ever since 1992, Professor Piele has been taking his teams all over the world for 101 competitions. This year's competition, in China, turned out to be the most successful to date. You may ask, though, how do computer programmers compete? The premise of such competitions as USACO and 101 is fairly simple: Students are given problems and then tested on their ability to solve them. The only difference between them solving the problems and other less-advanced people IS that we use pencil and paper while they use computers and deal with algorithms to solve their problems. This does not include writing applications, but rather involves creating programs using codes that solve the problems, and then testing those programs with different sets of data. Speed and accuracy are the key. Sounds a little advanced, doesn't it? Well, to the participants in these competitions, it's just another day trying to make their programs just a little faster in order to gain the ed~ over other programs. The fact that the participants for these competitions are high school students is remarkable in and of itself. What's even more spectacular, however, is that this group of "the best and the brightest of our nation," according to Piele, meet right here at UWP for training once a year. Forget MIT or Stanford. The training grounds for some of the smartest kids in the U.S. is here. Every year, on-line tests and school administered tests are taken around the country to determine the top 15 programmers. Then, for one week, those 15 students are brought to UWp, all expenses paid, for an intensive training regime. Students are tested in their experience of solving problems, taught the best strategies, and given presentations on various techniques. In addition, they spend some free time playing disc golf and visiting Great America. Then, at the end of the week, the top four students are selected to accompany Professor Piele to whichever country the 101 is being held in that particular year. From there, they travel to that country for another all-expenses paid week competing against the best and the brightest of the world. USACO is a national competition headed by Professor Piele. They hold many competitions throughout the year. For more information, you can go to www.usaco.org. There, you can find information on the US team, details about its various competitions, details on the 101, and an archive of photos from the training camp and the competition in China. For additional photos, you can go to www.zing.com and select the "albums" menu, and type in ioi 2000 or usaco 2000. Again, congratulations to Professor Piele and his team for a job well-done in representing the u.s. overseas once again. j, , j Yo=areinvited to comejo;n us ana sleep undpneatl!. the stars at UW·ParlcSidei WM: Everyone " WI!Irt: Help us raise money and collect food for the Shalom Center.

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

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

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

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

Hey Parkside. you want to be like other universities in the system. then try running a contest that is both fair and !un for all. Hey Parkside Students! ! You complain a lot about this school and how there's no ac- tion, well it all goes to shoW how much it takes more than just a few people. And U you want it changed or if you think you can do better then get off your --- and do some· lhlng about It. Hey Union (PAB) come on let's get a little rowdy.

The policy, part of a rule ~ knownas UWS 17, was created ID' three years ago as a means to pun- ill ishpeoplewho use so-called hate ~I speech to taunt others for racial or ~ ollterreasons. The policy was _ changedearlierthis year after ques- tionsconcemingits constitutional- ity arose. AttheirSeplember meeting in nl ~ Madison, a majority of the regents decidedthe hate speech language unfairlyviolated students' rights to free speech. The American Civil Liberties _ UDionwasalsoconcemed with the 's fairness.

"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. "There are some things that you can't say in public," said Brown, "whetheryouhavetheright to free speech or not" Brown noted that he felt di- verse ideas and viewpoints were New development center to promote better learning ThenewUW-Parkside Fac- ultyDevelopment Center will atternpt to promote better learn- ingenvironments for minority, older, and women students.

The center will be funded by a $20,000 grant from the Undergraduate Teaching Im- provement Council of the UW· System. It will be located in the Li- brary-Learning center and will train 15 UW-Parkside faculty in it's first year (1992-93). Those faculty members are: Sylvia Beyer, Erika Hoff- Ginsberg,LuciaHerrera,Peggy James, James Kinchen, Donald Kummings, Alan Shucard, Maria Leavitt, Judy Logsdon, Roseann Mason, Sue Norton, Mary Kay Schleiter, Gerhard Schutte; and Gary Wood. These faculty will work with student associates and a peer consultant in order to de- velop strategies for teachmg a diversified student populauon. Women, minority, and adult students will work together with faculty at experimentation in teaching and learning.

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. "Bush views the central cities as foreign countries rather than for- eign counuies as foreign countries."
