On Wednesday, Feb. 11,
Parkside Student Government, no
longer named Parkside Student
Government Association,
convened for their weekly
General Assembly. They
discussed their recent trip to
Madison for United Council's
General Assembly. Due to
recent restructuring and a longer
history of disagreements, Student
Government is contemplating
secession from UC.
UC is a non-profit
organization that every University
of Wisconsin-Parkside student
pays $2 per semester as part of
the segregated fees for UW-P to
maintain membership. UC is a
lobbying group that represents
UW schools to the state
government.
"United Council is trying
to be everything to everybody,"
said PSG Vice President Zak
Smith on why they may drop out.
UC finalized their restructuring
at their last meeting and voted
to broaden their focus to address
issues important to the different
campuses in the UW-System. A
governor- appointed regent, who
received a standing ovation at the
end of his speech, advised UC to
narrow their focus to issues that
affect every student in the system,
such as financial aid, access and
affordability, and the quality
of education. According to the
regent, focusing on these issues
would bring the most efficient
change and bring them together
as students.
The new structure minimized
the role of the general assembly;
their executive body has become a
board of directors. The oversight
comes from the general assembly,
but "all the power is given to
the board," said PSG President
Theodore Ruffalo. UC is also
holding fewer meetings, now only
three general assemblies every
year. PSG drafted a resolution
at the last UC but it never made
it to the floor. For now, PSG has
decided to form a committee to
evaluate the situation and form
stronger opinions about dropping
out of UC.
A history of contradictions
is driving PSG to reconsider
their membership and think of
alternatives that would still connect
them and other UW campuses
with state representation, such
as a Southeastern Wisconsin
coalition with UW-Whitewater
and UW-Milwaukee. Some
of their past problems include
conflicting views on finance,
insisting on a negative budget,
and catering to special interests.
The UC has consistently pushed
for lower tuition and more action.
PSG members have accepted
that tuition cannot drop until the
schools and the economy have
improved. The bottom line for
now is that The University of
Wisconsin-Parkside cannot go
without state representation,
so the sooner PSG can find an
alternative, the better.
Other UW schools are
considering dropping out of
UC, like UW-Milwaukee, and
some have already
dropped out. The
students of UWMilwaukee
voted
to secede last
spring, but they
did not give UC
due notice and their
election was ruled
invalid, according
to Dr. Stephen
McLaughlin, the
Vice Chancellor and
PSG staff advisor.
The next UC
general assembly
will be held at UWParkside
on April 17.
During this UC assembly
there will be an election
and they will be defining
the more specific bylaws
of the new structure.
PSG is hoping to use that
to their advantage.

Mission Statement
The Ranger News strives to inform,
educate, and engage the UWParkside
community by publishing
well-written, accurate student
journalism on a weekly basis.
The Ranger News has meetings every Friday al
noon. All students and faculty of UW-Parkside
are welcome. Please feel free to attend. Have any
comments, concerns, questions, or story ideas?
Please e-mail us at: rangernews@uwp.edu .
We are located at Wyllie DI39C
Each person may take one newspaper

an organization that got the
runaround before getting an
office suitable for their needs.
Unfortunately, PASA wasn't
available for comment on their
story. That's a shame, because
I think having their perspective
would have helped the story
along quite a bit.
Overall, I'm very pleased
with this issue. We've had some
problems with getting stories in
by deadline, but it's clear that the
staff has realized the importance
of deadlines and as such have
worked hard to get things in on
time. Deadline is an important
day for us, because that allows
us to dp a preliminary plan of
the issue, copyedit articles, and
make sure we have enough space
for ads and photos. Working at
The Ranger News is a learning
process for all, me included, so
I will never expect things to run
perfectly.
Ruth tells me that my letter
this week should be short, since
we've got so much other stuff to
fit in. I suppose 1 should listen to
her, and let you guys get on with
reading...
Have a good week, see you

this week's issue is a bit late.
Hometown had some new
equipment installed earlier this
week, which meant that their
production schedule was a little

Sheng Wang is a Taiwanese Texan
who developed and honed his
comedy in the thriving standup
community of the San Francisco
Bay Area. He performs jokes
based on personal experiences
with intense honesty and ill
logic. His refreshingly affable
stage presence combined with a
healthy penchant for absurdity
and self-deprecation make his
act universally accessible and
hilarious. "I use humor and
laughter to overcome tribulations
of the heart and liver," Wang
says. "I don't have many friends,
but I got people I tend to eat food
with." In addition to touring
with the Comedians of Comedy
and American Eagle's "Campus
Comedy Challenge," he has also
appeared on Comedy Central's
"Live at Gotham" and on the
AZN Network. In 2007, Sheng
was selected to perform at the
prestigious "Just for Laughs"
comedy festival in Montreal.

'Lust, Caution'
Director Ang Lee ("American
Beauty," "Brokeback Mountain")
takes us to Shanghai, China, in
1942 where the brutal Japanese
occupation continues. Shy
youngster Wong Chia Chi meets
fellow student Kuang Yu Min.
He has started a drama society
to shore up patriotism. As the
theater troupe's new leading lady,
Wong realizes that she has found
her calling. Kuang convenes a
core group of students to carry
out a radical and ambitious plan
to assassinate a top Japanese
collaborator, Mr. Yee. Each
student has a part to play: Wong
will be Mrs. Mak, who will
gain Yee's trust by befriending
his wife and then draw the man
into an affair. Wong transforms
herself and the scenario proceeds
as scripted. As she is drawn ever
closer to her dangerous prey,
she finds her very identity being
pushed to the limit. Aided by the
nuanced, forceful performances
of his two leads, Ang Lee has
made "Lust, Caution" something
to be seen and savored. Please
note: This film contains scenes of
explicit sexuality.

Chekhov's "The Seagull"
7:30pm
Studio Theatre
{Adults $16, Seniors and UWParkside
faculty & staff $12,

at the University of WisconsinParkside
presents 7 performances
of Chekhov's serious comedy "The
Seagull." Director Lisa Kornetsky
said Chekhov described all of his
plays as comedies with the humor
coming from irony. In the case of
"The Seagull," the irony comes
from characters who are looking
for love in all the wrong places.
"The Seagull" features Amanda
Thomm as Arkadina, a famous
Russian actress who is unable to
play the role of loving mother
to her emotionally needy son
Treplev, played by Chad Bay.
Treplev, a playwright whose
first play fails miserably, loves
Nina (Cathlyn Melvin) but she is
infatuated with Trigorin, played
by Chris Baker. Trigorin is about
to leave the Russian countryside-
-and Nina—to return to Moscow
with his lover, Arkadina, but he
arranges for Nina to secretly come
to Moscow. The cast includes
Terrance Barrett at Arkadina's
brother Sorin. Dylan Roberts
is Ilya, the manager of Sorin's
estate with Whitney Darling as
Ilya's wife Polina, and Maddie
Wakley as their daughter Masha.
Karl Gfall plays Dr. Dorn and
Ryan Shaw portrays the teacher
Semyon Medvedenko with
Thomas Moore, Erika Lamp,
and Tracy Hoida in supporting
roles. Hoida also serves as the
production's properties designer.
Off stage, Kornetsky is joined
by scenic designer Skelly Warren
and design advisors Judith Tucker
Snider and Darice Damata
Geiger. Student Aaron Greenberg
serves as costume and make-up
designer with lighting and sound
by Devin Nee and Phil Wooding,
respectively. Julie Middendorf is

The last time The Prodigy
really hit it big in the United
States, a Democrat was
in the Oval Office, and the
band consisted of three main
members: Liam Howlett, Maxim
Reality, and Keith Flint. Now,
the stars seem have realigned
for something of an American.,
comeback, and their latest record,
Invaders Must Die, is absolutely
as fulfilling as their efforts from
the late 90s.
This record is almost a
lesson in the aesthetics of dance
music and DJing. It starts out
with the digitally released title
track "Invaders Must Die", an
infectious anthem not unlike
the band's song "Firestarter". It
is robotic, but hits like a brick,
and has a groove of heroic
proportions. From there, the first
single to come from this album
is a track called "Omen". Fans
of Brit dance-punk outfit Does It
Offend You, Yeah? should fall in
love with this track, as will anyone
familiar with early Prodigy tracks
like "Jericho". Keith and Maxim
add their seemingly nonsensical
vocal contributions to the mix of
bells, synth melodies and distorted
beats to create something akin to
a banshee directing her attention
at today's stale rock scene.
Speaking of which, back in
the 1990s, I fought listening to The
Prodigy when it hit the rotation
at the music store I was working
at. I was a Nirvana/grunge kid,
complete with flannel and long
greasy hair. I fell in love with
Music for the Jilted Generation
back then, and now Dave Grohl
makes an appearance on the song
"Run with the Wolves". Honestly,
it's the drums that really make the
song work. This thing kicks you
in the face about twelve seconds
in, and it's the kind of song you
put on a workout mix because it
gets your heart racing. The cocky
British sneer is loud and clear
in the vocals, and Liam Howlett
proves he can mix any type of
sound into a coherent dance
track.
For ardent fans of the band,
there's a little bit of everything
here."Colours"soundslikeitcould
have been a b-side to anything off
of Always Outnumbered, Never
Outgunned, and sounds like Daft
Punk took Liam out on a speed
bender before he laid the track.
Pure electro tones contrast with
dirty guitars and are set to an
impossible tempo only the young
will be able to keep up with.
"Warrior Dance", on the other
hand, starts out with a melancholy
sax, but quickly twists into hard,
distorted beats with a high-octave
female backup singer that dares
us to sing along without sounding
like helium addicts. Bass addicts
aren't left out either, as tracks like
"Thunder" and "Omen Reprise"
deliver the goods, and fans of
old school house and new wave
rave music will all find this record
sating their needs.
As much as the contents
of this album reminded me of
older electronic songs, there's
something new to be found in
Vote and die
coin, and Blood in the Game
really brings that idea home.
This volume starts with the
warring parties attempting to
assert some sort of order in the
virtually lawless DMZ. Both
have their own candidates for the
new provisional government, but
the people living in Manhattan
have the final say come Election
Day. In steps Parco Delgado,
life long citizen of the island
and leader of what he calls "The
Delgado Nation". Consisting
of former gang bangers and
thugs, Delgado's crew are streethardened,
but not hard-hearted.
It isn't long before Matty's
employers start to question
his impartiality, and it doesn't
get easier when his mother, a
political consultant, flies in to
help put Delgado on top of the
competition. Though it turns into
politics as usual after a sniper
tries to take out the home-turf
candidate, Delgado's message is
full of the kind populist rhetoric
that we fear coming from the
Middle East. That message
is tempered, however, with
tolerance, and in one small move,
Wood shows us exactly the kind
of leader we need to find among
those governments America
currently hand-holds.
Parco Delgado isn't an
impossibility, no more than
journalists with a keen sense
of morality like Matty Roth are
totally imaginary. Brian Wood
seems to be positing that, instead
of finding a tool that suits our
needs or allowing our enemies
to do the same, we really ought
to look to the people of opposing
nations to present leadership
for themselves. Only when a
person has lived in the midst
of adversity can they both
empathize with those who also
have, and encourage them to
heal constructively. Wood also
continues to develop his main
character in this volume, and
Roth realizes what many readers
already seem to know. The
cub reporter is not an outsider
any longer. Between exposing
corrupt government contractors
like Trustwell (Wood's stand-in
for Halliburton), and seeing both
sides of the war effort, Matty,
and the readers, can't afford to
sit by impartially. Wood wants
us to take sides, both on his work
and in real life, and we can see
that sitting idly by is inexcusable
if we really want a happy and
peaceful resolution. Accessible
to readers both new and old,
Blood in the Game should appeal
to anyone with even the most
remotely curious political mind.

still one of the most interesting
critiques of American
involvement in Iraq and
Afghanistan to date. The latest
installment, DMZ Vol. 6: Blood
in the Game, examines provincial
elections held overseas through
a lens of hip-hop panache
and old-fashioned American
dystopianism.
For those unfamiliar with
DMZ, the story is set in New
York City, on Manhattan Island
in the near future. After years
of political disaster, America
has erupted in a second Civil
War and the opposing sides have
come to a stalemate in New York.
Manhattan has been declared
a demilitarized zone, and all
but the most poor have been
evacuated. Enter Matty Roth, a
journalism intern who
finds himself trapped
in the DMZ and
decides to report
on the plight of the people
living there. When we look at
contemporary places like Fallujah
or Kandahar, we have no idea
how the people there live
or what their feelings are
concerning American
occupation. DMZ
allows us to peek
at the other
side of
t h e
Invaders Must Die as well. Sure,
Liam Howlett sticks to his guns,
mixes ballsy beats with standby
samples like he always has, but
there is a completeness to his
work here that just can't be found
in a lot of dance music anywhere.

has made isn't music, or even

Grant Morrison is perhaps
one of the most interesting
writers to take on the Batman
mythos in the modern era since
Frank Miller used the Caped
Crusader to prove graphic
novels were more than just a
child's medium in The Dark
Knight Returns. This latest
effort, Batman: R.I.P.. delves
into the realm of psychology
to explore what makes a
person who they are. More
importantly, Morrison tells an
intriguing story while doing it.
and we reap the benefits.
R.l.P. collects eight issues
of DC Comics Batman title
into one hardcover volume.
Though originally presented
as a crossover event wherein
readers would have to purchase
several titles to get the full
story, the installments by
Morrison cover the main body
of the work and present a
coherent tale on their own. In
this case, it is a new criminal
organization calling itself The
Black Glove, which sets out to
destroy Batman from the inside
out. The leader of this group,
who goes by Dr. Hurt, implants
a post-hypnotic suggestion in
Batman that, when activated,
essentially causes amnesia.
If Batman is relived of the
anger and memories that his
fueled his revenge-seeking
behaviors against crime. Hurt
hypothesizes, there's a good
chance that the man behind the
mask will succumb to the basest
of human vices as a coping
mechanism. It begs us to ask
ourselves if we would still be
who we are if we suddenly
forgot all of the pain in our
lives. This is a gamble, and the
villain knows it. so he plans to
also destroy everything Bruce
Wayne holds dear in Batman's
absence.
What Dr. Hurt and The
Black Glove do not count on.
however, is Bruce Wayne's
dabbling with Eastern
mysticism. Over the years.
Batman writers have escalated
Bruce Wayne's training to
include superior mental
faculties to match his physical
abilities. Grant Morrison is
in his element here, and plays
with the idea of thogal as a
preventative measure for just
such an occurrence. Thogal
is a meditative state that
he describes as a rehearsal
for death while living, and
Morrison equates one's loss of
a lifetime worth of memories
to a kind of personality death.
Bruce Wayne uses this training
to activate "The Batman of
Zur-En-Arrh". a sort of split
personality that is solely
powered by Wayne's rage and
search for vengeance. Needless
to say. this leads Dr. Hurt to
discover that he is way out of
his league. Hurt's plans to have
the Joker kill Dick Grayson
blow up in his face, and before
the end. all of Arkham seems
to be coming down around him
and the rest of the villains.
Thogal. by the way. is
a legitimate Buddhist practice,
and that alone gives us reason
to question everything Grant
Morrison and Tony Daniel put
on the page. Dr. Hurt might be
the Devil, Bat-Mite could really
be just part of Bruce Wayne's
imagination, and its anyone's
guess (until the ending at least)
what Zur-En-Arrh means.
Grant Morrison forces us to
put our critical skills to the test,
and lazy readers will be totally
lost by this book. That said,
there isn't exactly a profound
point to this Batman story
Yes. it forces the reader to ask
questions that a normal story
in this series might not. but in
the end. Batman is Batman,
the Joker is the Joker, and the
heroes win the day. Batman
doesn't even die in this volume
(for that one needs to read Final
Crisis, also by Morrison), and
some readers may feel let down
by that in a sense. Overall, thi
is the kind of work that may
appeal to long-time fans and
heavy readers, but the casual
connoisseur won't get much
out of this book
Honor Society
elects spring
officers

The Gamma Pi Chapter of
Lambda Pi Eta, a division of the
National Communication Honor
Society for Undergraduates,
recently named officers for
the spring semester. Returning
member and former vice
president, Star Smith-Hayes,
was elected president, and new
member Camilla Simon was
elected vice president. Continuing
in their former positions are
Laura Joosse as secretary and
Justin Krahn as treasurer.
The goal of Lambda Pi
Eta is to recognize, foster, and
reward outstanding scholastic
achievement, stimulate interest
in the field of communication,
promote and encourage
professional development among
communication majors, provide
an opportunity to discuss and
exchange ideas about the field,
establish and maintain close
relationships and understanding
between faculty and students,
and explore options for further
graduate studies.
In the fall of 1994, the
University of Wisconsin-Parkside
was invited to join the National
Communication Honor Society
for Undergraduates. Dedicated
to the cause. Dr. Wendy LeedsHurwitz
and Dr. Jonathan Shailor
became co-advisors for the
Gamma Pi chapter here at UWParkside.
While Leeds-Hurwitz
is participating in an international
institute in Lyons, France this
semester. Fay Akindes will
be serving as interim advisor
for the primarily student-run
organization.
Members of LPH are
recruited by invitation only and
must meet specific requirements
to obtain such an invitation. This
semester's active members are
Ashley Bardwell, Ashley Hubers,
Laura Joosse, Kristal Kowalski.
Justin Krahn, Marcie McGowen.
Amanda Miller, Camilla Simon,
Star Smith-Hayes. Michael
Westbrook, and Paul Zamp.
Eligible members who remain
inactive are; Maria Farias,
Stephanie Gemino, Kim Kwak.
Jessica Murphy, Jennifer Nelson.
Gina Pierangeli, and Sara Smith.
LPH meets approximately
once per month. The intention
of the group is to provide service
as well as networking events. In
fall 2008, LPH co-sponsored Key
Connections, an opportunity for
current communication students
to network with UW-Parkside
alumni in the Communication
field. In spring 2008, LPH
participated in the Undergraduate
Honors Research Conference as
well as the Student Showcase
for student research, creative
activity, and community
engagement. Each spring,
this organization assists in the
planning 'of the Communication
Spring Celebration, which seeks
to spotlight graduating seniors in
tandem with the initiation of new
members to Lambda Pi Eta.
Students graduating with
a membership in Lambda Pi
Eta are designated with a gold
cord worn at graduation. All
members are also eligible to earn
a red and white service cord upon
completion of applicable service
hours. At initiation, members also
receive a pin and certificate of
membership.
Graduating with these
honors is highly.-prestigious,
and the resume cfledit alone is
worth consideration. It is also
important to note that the benefits
of membership in LPH extend
beyond this campus. For instance,
there is a job site specific to LPH
members. Networking events
are held with LPH members in
mind. Professional development
opportunities arc also in existence

Ken Watanabe, the director of
Memoirs of a Geisha and Letters
from I wo Jima, develops another
remarkable film, Memories of
Tomorrow. The story is told from
the perspective of a man who suffers
from Alzheimer's decease and
struggles to overcome the obstacles
that he encounters as he ages and his
disease develops faster.
Saeki is an executive
businessman who spends all ot his
life in his office and does not pay
much attention to his life at home
until he starts to notice that he lorgets
simple tasks and that the early stages
of Alzheimer's have started to kick
in. He realizes, with the marriage
of his daughter, Rie, how time has
passed, and he has missed important
moments.
He is worried for his daughter
and afraid that he will not be present
at her wedding, but his loving and
supporting wife, Emiko. grows
worried as her husband begins to fall
into a state of depression because of
his disease. She helps him by writing
a daily schedule for him to follow
at home when he is forced to retire
because he can no longer assume his
position at work.
Emiko leaves her housewife
life and ventures out every morning
to obtain a salary, while the once
important executive is forced to stay
home and complete house duties.
Essentially, they are forced to switch
gender roles, and we are given the
chance to see the struggles this causes
them.
This film is filled with many
nostalgic moments in which it
was hard to contain the tears! The
desperation of Saeki is gorgeously
seen as he now depends on his wife
to even brush his teeth, and the
courageously strong role that Emiko
takes is one that nobody would wish
to assume. The ending could not have
been any more depressing; however,
the movie's significance would not
have been the same if it had ended in
a different way.
Anyone who enjoys any ol
Ken Watanabe's other films should
definitely lookforthisone. Even thostj
unfamiliar with Wantanabe's work
can find significance in this film. It
brilliantly captures the struggles and
severity of Alzheimer's disease. ^

I a m writing in response
to last week's opinion article |
about human interaction.
I have to say. this is by far
one of the most interesting
articles ,-ve read in the
opinion section. When you
think about it. the next
generation might have lesser
human interaction. We are
moving in a fast-paced
society and technological
innovations have taken over
communication. It's sad to
think that probably someday
human interactions are
going to be weak or rare.
The average worker goes to
a job and sits in front of the
computer or communicates
on the phone, e-mail, or text
the whole day .
When they come home,
they sit in front of a tele\ ision
or a video game. Where is the
time to spend with a loved
one? When I walk in the
hallways, some people that
I know have an earpiece or
cell phone stuck to their ear:
therefore. I do not want to
bother, chat, or inform them
about fun events on campus
or off campus. Where is the
human interaction there?
I'm not obsessed with text
messaging, and I CAN live
without my cell phone. It's
sad that I have to write this
on the computer instead ot by
hand. Hut just think about it.
as college students looking
for a career, don't you have
to do an interview or two
down the road? Have you
had enough interactions with
people to prepare you when
you have that job interview?
Like the last week's
article stated, try to go a day
without interacting with your
devices because you might
find some interesting people
or friends you would never
thought of before because
you were too busy tcxting.
Exercise your voice and

could do a good job on that

Government rescue packages:
Neither moral nor practical
OVA RYANM ASiCHHTTOON M i , .... •
ashto001@uwp.edu
There are at least two ways of
critiquing the economic "rescue"
packages that have been squirting
out of Washington lately—
morally and practically. The
moral side of it asks "Is it right?"
while the practical side asks "Will
it work?" Both the Legislative
and Executive branches of
government want you to believe
that the answer to both is "yes,"
but, I'm here to disagree.
I think the answer to both
is a resounding "No!" Let's look
at the moral question first. What
the government is proposing is
a redistribution of wealth. That
is, after all, the only tool the
government really has in the first
place. Uncle Sam has the ability
to tax those who create things
of value on His turf. I.e., those
who put their minds or their labor
to productive use must submit
a portion of the things of value
created by their efforts to the
government for redistribution.
Presumably, this is done under
the flags of justice, fairness
and security. If each individual
were to reap 100 percent of the
benefits from his or her efforts,
then societies' levels of justice,
fairness and security would go
down, or so the theory goes. It
is, therefore, these flags of justice,
fairness and security that make
the government's redistributive
powers morally valid. The
government is right to tax your
efforts because it will redistribute
your wealth in a way that is fairer,
more just and more secure than
if you were to spend that wealth
yourself.
Now, most of us are
accustomed to this redistribution
of our wealth because we have
been taxed since birth. Since
we have all accepted it for so
long, I suppose we're not as
interested in the question of
whether the government ought
to have this power at all; rather
we're generally more interested
in the question of how much
the government ought to tax us,
and for what purposes. This is
where we find ourselves when we
consider the implications of the
trillions of dollars in economic
rescue packages. Is it morally
right for the government to decide
for you that these trillions of your
dollars ought to be spent to prop up
failing banks, failing automotive
companies, indebted consumers,
the unemployed, and many other
expensive failures? Since the sum
of these rescue packages is in the
trillions of dollars, we're talking
about an enormous redistribution
of wealth. I.e., those who are able
to produce will have more of their
created wealth taken away from
them (either through taxation or
inflation) in order to give that
wealth to those who have not been
able to produce for themselves,
for whatever reason. This is the
moral question: Is such a massive
redistribution of wealth right'?
It is worth noting that there
are two layers to this moral
question: A) the event of taking
wealth from the one who created
it; and B) the event of giving
wealth to one who did not create
it. Now, few would have a
problem with (B) by itself—this
is what we might call "charity."
I, therefore, do not have a moral
problem with (B), so long as the
one doing the giving is doing so
voluntarily. My moral objection
to the government's redistribution
of wealth thus lies exclusively
within (A). To (forcefully) take
wealth away from the one who
created it is a moral violation in
my opinion, and it is exceedingly
immoral when the quantity of
wealth taken is inordinately large,
as is the case with these rescue
packages. I therefore answer
"no" to the moral question.
The United States, however,
is not a particularly "principled"
nation these days so moral
questions aren't all that important
to people anymore. We're more
of a consumerist, ego-centric,
hedonistic society so all we really
care about is whether something
will actually "work"—more
specifically, we only care whether
something will work for us. This
where the practical question is
comes rescue in: "Will these
packages work as advertised?"
Having paid fairly close
attention to the news reports about
the rescue packages, my best
estimate is that the only measure
of the efficacy of the rescue plans
is the avoidance of an economic
apocalypse. In other words,
in exchange for our trillions of
dollars, our lives are expected to
get worse—substantially worse
according to some estimates—
regardless of the rescue spending.
This makes the practical question
rather difficult to address; instead
of measuring improvements in
the functioning of society, we're
measuring rates of deterioration.
It's sort of like treating cancer:
there's no such thing as a "cure,"
but there's plenty of business out
there for those who find ways
to slow it down. In any case, I
think there are ways to estimate
the practical value of these rescue
packages.
One way, and the only one
I'm going to consider here, is
to look at the human side of the
economic equation. Humans are
of course central to a functioning
economy in that they are the
ones doing the producing and
consuming of the things of value.
Therefore, if you know something
about human nature, you know
something about whether a rescue
plan will work. The aspect of
human nature I want to draw
on here is the school of thought
developed in psychology known
as behaviorism.
What behaviorist theories
propose is that a target human
behavior can be escalated or
deescalated based, partially, on
the nature of the consequences
associated with the target
behavior. When a target behavior
is tied to a desirable consequence,
that person is likely to repeat
the target behavior. Likewise,
when a target behavior is tied
to undesirable consequences,
that person is likely to abstain
from the target behavior.
Knowing this, we
can estimate what
the effects of rescue
packages might be on
the humans impacted
by such policies.
On the one
hand, those who
produce the wealth
(the target behavior)
in the society
will experience
a greater loss of
their earned wealth
(an undesirable consequence).
According to the behaviorist
model, this scenario, taken by
itself, would have the effect of
making the person less likely to
perform the target behavior; i.e.
the person would abstain from
producing wealth. On the other
hand, those who do not produce
wealth (the target behavior) in
the society under the rescue
plan would then experience an
increase in redistributed wealth
(a desirable consequence).
Therefore, the behaviorist model
would predict that the target
behavior would be rewarded,
and therefore more likely to be
repeated. In other words, the
rescue plan would encourage
people to be unproductive.
Now, I think it is safe to
say that the rescue packages
are advertised as increasing
productivity in society. But, if
we look at it from this behaviorist
model, the rescue packages would
be doing the exact opposite.
The plans would be rewarding
unproductive behaviors while
penalizing the productive ones.
This fact gives me good
reason to answer "no" to
the practical question.
These rescue plans will
not work as advertised.

liThe

Student
Health
BY JON!
DENECKE
The Mental
Health
Task
Force
would
like to introduce
Active
Minds-
a student-
runmental-health
awareness,
education
l
and advocacy
organization.
Marcy
Hufendick,
of the
Student
Health
&
Counseling
Center,
was one.of
many
who
went to a conference
last spring
and leamed
about
the Active
Minds
organization.
A task force
was
formed
to
look into the need
for a mental-
health
awareness
program.
The
task force
feels
Active
Minds
is something
that
will
help
raise
awareness
and get
rid of some
of the stigma
and
-MalleI
Hufendiek

Center
\
misunderstandings
about
mental-
health
issues
that people
have.
"It
is important
-to
educate
not only
the staff
here
at UW-
Parkside
but more
important
to
educate
the whole
UW-Parkside
community,"
said
Hufendick.
"The
more
people
know
about
mental
illness
the more
the stigma
attached
to it will
disappear.
"
DeAnn
Possehl,
director
of Resident
Life,
agreed
that
this program
is something

Wednesday,

office.
BY
NICHOLAS
MICHAEL
RAVNlKAR
Every
student
at UW-
Parkside
pays
two dollars
to
an
organization
called
United
Council.
But many
students
are
unaware
of both
the fact that
United
Council
exists
and what
the council
does,
despite
the fact
that the fee is disclosed
in the
"fee facts"
booklet
distributed
with Students'
bills
at the
beginning
of every
semester.
Representing
the concerns
of over
145,000
students
and the
concerns
from
all but two of the
26
campuses
in the UW
system
is the primary
responsibility
of
United
Council,
which
purports
itself
as students'
"only
voice
on
the statewide
level."
Lilia
Williams,
who
is
UW-Parkside's
"campus
buddy"
and LGBTQ
issues
director
for
United
Council,
was at UW-
Parkide's
campus
from

Women's
Issues
Boil Over
KAITLYN
M.
ULMER
Like
a pot boiling
over,
underlying
women's
issues
at
UW-Parkside
came
to the surface
after
the termination
of Marlene
Schlecht,
a campus
police
officer,
(December
31) and the murder
of
student
Stefnee
Goines
(January
14).
"There
are specific
issues
that affect
the whole
community,
and the whole
community
needs
to embrace
those
issues,"
said
Marcy
Hufendick,
program
manager
and senior
counselor
for the Student
Health
and
Counseling
Center.
Both
Marcy
Hufendick
and DeAnn
Possehl,
director
of
Student
Health
and Counseling,
signed
on
as
supporters
for
the Violence
Against
Women
grant
written
by fanner
campus
police
officer
Marlene
Schlecht.
This
grant
brought
ASPEN
(Advocates
Supporting
Parkside
and Educating
for Nonviolence)
into existence
in
2003.
"We
provided
input
for programs.
brochures,
and pamphlets.
We weren't
necessarily
involved
in
the
day-
to-day
activities
[of ASPENj,"
said
Hufendick.
"When
the program
changed
focus
and added
dornesric
violence
and stalking,
many
advocates
were
not trained
specifically
in those
areas,"
said
Possehl.
Posting
yellow
signs
on
doors
and desks,
many
faculty
and staff
continue
to work
as advocates
and mark
their
affiliation
with
the ASPEN
program.
"The
reality
is that without
our grant
and without
Marlene
no one is here
to shepherd
the
program.
My guess
is that it
won't
he
with
us," said
Possehl.
'We
will continue
to educate
student
leaders
on [women's]
issues
and the resources
available.
Personal
counseling
is
still here
and will remain
here;'
said
Hufendick.
Despite
these
setbacks,
both
Huffendick
and Possehl
encourage
students
to volunteer
for service
programs
in
their
local
communities.
"Even
if you just stuff
envelopes
and answer
the phone.
you free
up
the
professionals
for direct
service
work,"
said
Huffendick.
In April,
the Women's

Williams
announced

are available

as well
as a number
of United
Council's
statewide
efforts,

she said

One
sucb
effort
is the "No

is trying

about
the Defense

Amendment
that will

If
passed,
the amendment
will quash

Williams
said.
She added
two things:
that the amendment

the amendment

In the January

it was
reported
that
PASA
had a discrepancy
of $449.20
on their

In

a correction
was
run stating
that the number
was
all

but not on an individual

sheet.
There
was
indeed
an individual

for this number,
so PASA
had
no discrepancy

In the January
31 issue,
Zara

'was
quoted
as saying,
"If
a woman
is too intoxicated
to say.
no, she can't
say it was
rape."
After

she wanted

that a

no

crunch time. Spring break is coming yc

Staff Member of the Issue
From now on, The
Ranger News will recognize
one staff member per issue
who stands out, taking his
or her responsibilities at the
newspaper seriously. This
issue, meet our news editor,
Joshua Langer.
Ever since Josh was
hired as an intern for his position
here earlier this semester,
he has been on point, routinely
stopping in the newspaper
office with story ideas,
asking for advice, contacting
appropriate University personnel
for necessary information,
attending UW-Parkside
events, and carrying a microcassette
recorder wherever he
goes in case a breaking story 5
pops up right in front of h im.
He has held interviews with
members of Parkside Student
Government Association
leaders, as well as contacting
UW-Parkside administration
officials such as

Dear Ranger Growl,
This is a reply to the Careful Treader" complaint. A groundskeeper
at UW-Parkside has over four miles of sidewalk to plow when it
snows, plus all the parking lots, campus roads, entryways and snow
clean up around campus. There are normally six people to clean
everything. There isn't the manpower to put a person at every 10
feet of sidewalk to shovel snow by hand. Least we forget what a
Wisconsin winter is really like? The groundspeople deserve kudos,
not criticism.
—A Gro undsbacker
So let's say (hypothetically of course) that you are on a new
health kick and have decided to work on running more. Since the
weather has been a bit ungodly, you head over to the Frank Petretti
Fieldhouse after class (roughly 3 p.m.), only to find that it is closed
to students (who pay to use this facility through tuition) from 3 p.m.
to 6 p.m. so that various sports teams can practice. Are you telling
me that the sports teams are so important here that they can't share
a huge facility. Guess I'll just sleep after class; wake me when we
become a D1 school.

Rainbow Alliance Poster Vandalized
Sometime late in the week of February 9, an unknown
party defaced a flier advertising meetings for Rainbow
Alliance, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT)
campus organization. The perpetrator or perpetrators scratched
out the word "Rainbow" on the flier, and wrote "Low-life."
Also written were the phrases "Degenerates" and "Immoral
Sickos." In addition to this act, several of the organization's fliers
were reported missing from the Communication Arts building.
Rainbow Alliance will continue to advertise their meetings,
which are open to all UW-Parkside students. See page 17 for
more on the story.
2nd Annual Pow Wow
Cherokee, Chippewa, Ho-Chunk, Menominee,
Meskwaki, Oglala Lakota, Ojibway, Woodland, and representatives
of otiher Native American tribes congregated in Main
Place here for the second annual "Honoring the Children"
Traditional and Educational Pow Wow. An estimated 600
people from Wisconsin and other states were in attendance as
participants, vendors, and spectators of the traditional dance,
drumming, speaking, and storytelling. UW-Parkside Sacred
Circle sponsored the event.
Patriot Act Forum
Roughly 20 students, staff, and faculty came
together in an informal meeting on February 16 to discuss
the highly controversial Patriot Act, which gives the government
the right to strip citizens and non-citizens of some
of their fundamental constitutional rights if they can be
labeled a "terrorist."
A more formalized forum on the Patriot Act is
scheduled for Monday, March 8 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in
Main Place. Special guests will include a constitutional
lawyer, a political science reference librarian, UW-Parkside
Chancellor Jack Keating, and, unconfirmed at press time, a
spokesperson for the FBI.
Students OK Union Renovation
Parkside Student Government Association
(PSGA) approved a $24 million renovation and expansion
proposal included in the annual SUFAC proposal. To
accommodate the project, SUFAC fees would increase
$448 over the next four years. Student would see an
increase of $100 per year for die next two years then
jump to $125 each year for die next two years after that.
Current fees are about $572. With the expansion costs,
the fees total would push UW-Parkside near the top of
the Wisconsin fee scale. Students at the UW-Green Bay
campus pay $1,154 in fees, largely in part of renovation
projects and new construction on campus.

United Council
Recruits Allies at UWParkside
By Josh Langer
On Monday, February 9, United Council President Jeff
Peril and Multicultural Issues Director Jennifer Epps interfaced
with The Ranger News staff on a variety of issues. United
Council of UW Students is Wisconsin's state student association,
founded in 1960. Representing 145,000 students on 24 of
the 26 UW-System campuses, United Council is a student-operated
organization committed to enhancing the quality of student
life and higher education.
"The $1.35 fee every UW-Parkside student pays each
semester is not mainly used to fund our lobbying efforts in the
state capitol," said Epps. "That money is used for us to make
materials like this brochure, go around the state, and inform students,
and then empower students to do that organizing on their
own behalf." The $1.35 fee is also refundable to any student
who does not wish to support United Council.
Issues currently on United Councils's agenda include
more representation on the UW Board of Regents, which oversees
the entire UW-system, and better financial aid packages for
poorer students.
"We're seeing a significant drop-out in the poorest section
of students applying to school because the cost of a higher
education is growing so much higher than the available financial
aid," saidPertl.
The root cause of these trends is difficult to pin. Pertl
explained, "Twenty years ago, financial aid was 70% grants and
30% loans; and now, it's 30% grants and 70% loans. It means
your average debt burden is much, much higher than it used to
be."
"The bottom line is we support 'need-based financial
aid' being based only on need. Any other criteria: drugs or
criminal record, merit, or marriage, whatever it is, need-based
financial aid is about need."
Currently, the Wisconsin budget is in a crisis, and the
UW-system is among the hardest hit of all state programs. So
although last year, the available financial aid increased by 53%,
owing to some unprecedented methods in appropriating that
money, it is doubtful that there should be anything but a decrease
from the record $80 million in need-based financial aid Gov.
Doyle set on the table for 2003-2004.
If you are interested in learning these processes —this
is real-world finance—talk to any of your representatives in
Parkside Student Government Association. The United Council's
annual conference, called "Building Unity" this year, is March
5-7 in Milwaukee. As of press time, more UW-Parkside delegates
would be welcome.
Did You Sign the Bed?
"If this is a place you'd like to be, go ahead and sign on me." A sign containing these words
sat strategically next to a bed this past week in Main Place. This bed was part of a program planned
by the Peer Health Educators called Love Carefully. The sign was not mean to trick anyone, but
instead to demonstrate a point about how careless some individuals are with their sexual partners.
A marker was left out for the students to sign with. This marker, in theory, could symbolically
represent one of the 20 plus sexually transmitted diseases that exist today. The later in the
week someone signed the bed, the greater the risk they had of contracting a disease.
The question the Peer Health Educators are posing to you is this: How well do you know
your sexual partner? All too often people do not realize that when they sleep with someone, they
are not only sleeping with them, but everyone whom they have slept with and everyone who their
partners have slept with...and that could go on forever. It was actually calculated that if a person
sleeps with two people in a year, and they each slept with two people, etc., the original person
would have slept with 512 people that year.
As Peer Health Educators and fellow students, we encourage you to get to know your
partner and to be safe. You cannot always tell if someone has a sexually transmitted disease, and
in some cases, you're gambling with your life. Before you jump into bed with someone, make sure
that you know who else is along for the ride.
For more information on sexually transmitted diseases and testing options, you can contact
the Student Health and Counseling Center at ext. 2366.
The Segregated Fee. Part II;
Changes for the Future
By: Josh Langer and Todd Drangstveit
The process for budgeting funds for the organizations, clubs, and departments accessible
to UW-Parkside students started the previous fiscal year. Students of the UW-system have a high
level of control over student fees through each school's Segregated University Fee Allocation
Committee (SUFAC). UW-Parkside's SUFAC, in negotiations that started in October, changed its
structure for allocating money to student organizations, with the hopes to raise the accountability
of the organizations and offer them greater flexibility for programming large events.
In the past, student organizations could request unlimited amounts for their budgets, but
this year SUFAC has capped that amount at $20,000. Depending on the type of organization, different
stipend caps are in place. Some of the factors SUFAC takes into account when granting
budget requests for each student organization are the quality of the organization's past events, the
content of those events, and the overall value that the organization adds to the student body.
With this transition, the segregated fee total allocation for next year was cut by a total of
$237,000, before the addition of a few new services offered to the students. The first new function
is the contingency pool, which was funded with $75,500. This pool is accessible to all the student
organizations looking to sponsor an event that is not in their planned budget, and also serves
all students. These organizations are encouraged to work together to improve the quality of the
large-scale events on campus. With this new addition to the students, the possibility of bringing in
high-profile speakers increases as well as the chance of bringing in big name music acts such as
Dave Matthews Band. The second new function is the Parking and Transportation Fee. Each year
students pay $21,000 to fund students' access to the Racine Bus in the form of segregated fees.
Next year, in addition to the Racine Bus expense, the students' parking permits will be covered
in the realm ol the Segregated Fee. This was done to alleviate the expected increase in the price
of student parking permits. The third and final cost SUFAC added was a $400,000 ouday for the
construction and renovation of the new Student Union. This building project was at the heart of
the committee's goal for the year of lowering the segregated fee per student by $50. If enrollment
increases by 2% next year, the committee will accomplish this lofty goal.
Recently, SUFAC passed on its recommendation to the senate to start the Union Expansion
Plan. The senate has passed the budget for the next fiscal year, but has to still approve the $24.2
million Union project. After the President's signature, the project passes to Chancellor Keating and
then to the Board of Regents. The estimated opening for the Student Union would have a Fall 2008
opening with the current schedule.
Next issue we will discuss the specifics of the Union Expansion and the costs that are
associated with it.

UW-Parkside Students Learn
the Lessons of bell hooks
February 29, 2004
By Tracy Medek
Editor's note: bell hooks prefers her name spelled in lowercase.
"Feminist, cultural critic, and high priestess of love," were words Megan
Feifer of UW-Milwaukee's Women's Resource Center used to introduce the campus'
distinguished lecturer, bell hooks. This year marked the 10th anniversary of
UW-Milwaukee's Women's Resource Center, but securing bell hooks as speaker
was worth celebrating in and of itself.
hooks, author of more than 16 books, is regarded not only for her insightful
examination of gender and culture, but perhaps, even more so, for her pairing
these scholarly discussions with a concept that is all but absent from academic
writing: love, hooks places love at the forefront of her message, and it is indeed
a radical joining of idea and spirit, hook's lecture rallied the audience around
the idea of love's role in social change, or as hooks put it, "love's transformative
powers." She stressed the importance of adopting a "love ethic," and applying
this ethic in each area of one's life, including political action.
hooks devoted much of her lecture to topics addressed in her newest
book, The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love, hooks immediately dispelled
the man-hating myth that has so doggedly followed the word "feminism."
She spoke of the need for men and women to unite in the fight to end patriarchy,
hooks doesn't place blame; rather, she declares with compassion that patriarchy
is equally detrimental to men. hooks even chastises women, reminding them not
to idealize their gender. "Unenlightened women are just as bad as unenlightened
men," hooks said.
The works of bell hooks are unique and provocative because she doesn't
oversimplify or isolate the problem. She talks about "interlocking systems of
domination" (race, gender, class etc.) which serve to oppress and divide. It is her
SPECIAL FROM THE RANGER NEWS
DIVERSITY:

MONTH
attention to the innumerable facets of culture that gives her voice strength and
credence.
UW-Parkside took full advantage of the opportunity to hear bell
hooks share her insights and ideas. Fay Akindes, Director of the Center for
Ethnic Studies and admirer of hook's work, organized the field trip.
The field trip was funded by Dean Cress and the College of Arts and
Sciences, and by Associate Vice Chancellor Steve McLaughlin and the Office
of Student Affairs. The two departments purchased 50 tickets for the event
and paid for bus transportation. The students who attended were from a broad
range of disciplines, including: communication, criminal justice, English, ethnic
studies, political science, sociology, and women's studies.
The response among UW-Parkside student attendees was overwhelmingly
positive. Each student seemed to identify with something in hook's message.
UW-Parkside senior, Jeffrey Raddatz, said, "She makes you reexamine
everything you take for granted, something we should all do more often."
When the floor was opened for questions, UW-Parkside's President
of Black Student Union, Dannie Moore, posed a simple yet challenging question
concerning what black males can do to counteract, as hooks phrased it,
"thug masculinity" in our culture. Hooks explained that the issue is inextricably
rooted in one's childhood, and that changes cannot be made without
confronting and exposing these early shapers of attitude. Moore said, "I really
liked how she brought it back to childhood."
hook's appeal and effectiveness lie in her ability to strike a uniquely
personal chord with audience and with reader. Her lecture at UW-Milwaukee
attests to this bond. Hook's disarming defiance and incisive analyses made the
evening an enjoyable and eye-opening experience.

BLACK HISTORY

History of Black
History Month
By Aaron D. Zabler
Black history has been recognized annually since 1926. It originally began as
"Negro History Week" and was recognized each year during the second week of February.
This date was chosen because it coincided with the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and
Frederick Douglass, both of whom had a profound impact in the abolition of slavery. This
annual recognition was brought into existence by a man named Dr. Carter G. Woodson.
Dr. Woodson was born in 1875, to parents who were former slaves. He was taught to read
by his family members, was enrolled in high school at the age of 20, and eventually went
on to obtain a Ph.D. from Harvard University.
In 1915 Dr. Woodson founded the Association for the Study of Negro Life and
History (which was later renamed the Association for the Study of African American Life
and History, or ASALH) which promoted the study and education of the black history
that was absent from many of the history books at that time. The ASALH still has that
goal today, as the mission statement reads, their goal "... is to promote, research, preserve,
interpret and disseminate information about Black life, history and culture to the global
community."
In 1976, as part of the nation's Bicentennial, Negro History Week was expanded
and renamed to Black History Month. The month of February is an important month, not
only because of Lincoln and Douglass, but because many significant events have taken
place during this winter month.
For example:
February 23, 1868:
W. E. B. DuBois, an important civil rights leader and co-founder of the
NAACP, was born.
February 3, 1870:
The 15th Amendment was passed, granting African Americans the right to
vote.
February 25, 1870:
The first African American U.S. senator, Hiram R. Revels, was elected.
February 12, 1909:
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People
(NAACP) was founded in New York City.
February 1, 1960:
In what would become a civil-rights movement milestone, a group of
black Greensboro, N.C., college students.began a sit-in at a segregated
Wool worth's lunch counter.
February 21, 1965:
Malcolm X, the militant leader who promoted Black Nationalism, was
shot to death by three Black Muslims.
Black History month is not only a reminder of the accomplishments of African
Americans, but also the accomplishments of our society and its evolution toward equality.
The recognition of this advancement and accomplishment in society is an imperative
aspect that will continue to promote the improvement of equal rights in our future.
Comin' Together
By George Lasley
What if the world wasn't brown (black) and yellow
(white)? Would we defend our heritage or would we
be upset because of the person who we are alike. Would
we ever compete (e.g. which race is dominant and which
race is the minority)? Where would the beautiful stories in
history go? How could those who are oppressed get their
confidence?
All of my favorite inspirational words would no
longer exist, such as xMya Angelous explaining why "the
caged bird sings," or "why they are so happy." If such
things like this fade away, what would be the writer's existence?
No more stories to repeat, those repeated words are
the only things that are keeping us (African-Americans)
from falling. How would the oppressed ever rise from the
bottom to the top or the back of society to the front? It's
not all that bad that America is yellow and brown (that's
the way it is).
We must accept these new colors. We are all different,
that is what makes us the same. So the next time a
person is similar to you, think of what life would be life
without those people.' Learning new styles and cultures
enables us to appreciate our own culture, just as well as
ourselves.
We must be polite and respect each other's background.
If these things are not accomplished, no one can
point a finger at anyone but him or herself. God sees and
hears all things. Before a negative comment comes forth,
God has already heard it. Pray and help, instead of hurting.
This month must stay with us through the year. It's all
about coming together.
Racial Peace Not Possible
Without Racial Honesty
Honesty about structural racism in the United
States is necessary before any progress can be made in flattening
the economic and social disparities between descendents
of enslaved African Americans and the dominant
culture. This was a central message in "Slave Reparations:
The Land, The Mules, The Money," a guest lecture by Dr.
Manning Marable, on Wednesday, Feb. 18, in the Union
Cinema. Dr. Marable, Professor of History and founding
Director ol the Institute for Research in African American
History at Columbia University, was invited to speak at
UW-Parkside by the Center for Ethnic Studies. Some 150
students, faculty, staff, and community members attended
the lecture followed by a Q&A session and reception.

The 5,h Annual UW-Parkside Martin Luther
King Jr. Celebration
February 29, 2004
By Josh Langer
SPECIAL FROM THE RANGER NEWS
DIVERSITY:
BLACK HISTORY
MONTH
Racine Community Service Award winner
Ahmad Qawi said in his acceptance speech,
"If we use the right hand to wash the left, and the
left to wash the right, then both hands come clean.
Simple."
More than a hundred people gathered in the
Communication Arts Theater on the night of Friday,
January 23, to celebrate the life and accomplishments
of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Dr. King spearheaded the civil rights movement
of the early 1960s, before which Americans of
African descent had no legal right to vote. He spoke
in major cities across the country, but primarily in the
South. He organized and mobilized all of those who
would join him in the nonviolent resistance of r acist
America. His goal was an integrated society where
his "four little children will one day live in a nation
where they will not be judged by the color of their
skin but by the content of their character." That was
his dream. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated
by a white supremacist in 1968.
The ceremonies started as Professor James
Kinchen of the music department outlined important
steps in the growth in the momentum of the early
civil rights movement.
He first discussed the Brown v. Board of
Education case of 1954 that established that the
doctrine of "separate but equal" is unconstitutional.
Segregated schools were illegal after this important
Supreme Court decision.
In 1955, Emmett Till's funeral received
national attention, especially in the African-American
community. The boy from Chicago was abducted and
murdered while on vacation in Mississippi, apparently
as retribution for saying "Bye, baby," to a white
woman in a store. His mother, Mamie Bradley, gave
him an open-casket funeral, so "all the world [could]
see what they did to my son." This incident was
important in that it showed the extent to which racism
can affect any African-American, not just those from
the South.
Dr. Kinchen went on to discuss the
Montgomery Bus Boycott, which was eventually
successful in desegregating Montgomery's public
transportation system. Martin Luther King, Jr. was
head of the Montgomery Improvement Association.
This was one of the first major civil rights causes he
championed.
In 1961, civil rights volunteers began sitins
at diners and lunch counters that catered only to
whites. Freedom Riders exposed the segregation that
still existed in bus and train lines destined for the
Deep South. The Freedom Riders were organized and
mentored by Dr. King.
Dr. Kinchen then spoke of the Birmingham
Movement of 1963. Nonviolent civil rights protestors,
many of them teenagers, were sprayed with
fire hoses, bitten by police dogs, and beaten by law
enforcement as they protested Birmingham's still
segregated schools. During this prolonged violence,
four young girls were murdered as they attended
Sunday School by white supremacists who detonated
a bomb in a Baptist church.
Dr. Kinchen concluded his presentation by
emphasizing King's line: "There is no use [for a black
person] going to a restaurant if he can't afford to sit
and have a meal.'"
The program also consisted of awards,
speeches, and performances. Awards were given out
for community service, essay contest winners, and art
contest winners. The art contest was for kindergartners
through second graders: Kaitlyn Scott, Margaret
Harms, and Joshua Choi, respectively.
Essay contest winners were third grader
Danielle Reynolds, fourth grader Kalyn Wilkinson,
fifth grader Paula Minor, middle schoolers Stephanie
Alfonzo Davila and Artasia Williams, high school
students Carl Buck and Jeremy Chavez, and UWParkside's
Nick Pitts. UW-Parkside student Chamika
Ellis won a community service award for her extensive
volunteer work in after-school mentoring programs.
Racine and Kenosha Community Service
Award winners Ahmad Qawi and Latrice Harris-
Collins continued in their acceptance speeches the
theme the little grade-schoolers had started: King's
legacy as a call to action.
Harris-Collins asked, her voice marked by
passionate frustration, 'What are we waiting for?
Why are we waiting?"
In 1963, Martin Luther King, Jr. gave his
speech from which the lines, "I Have a Dream,"
have become so familiar. Martin Luther King Essay
Parkside Winner Nick Pitts cited lines from this
speech in his essay: "One hundred years later, the
Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst
of a vast ocean of interior prosperity. One hundred
years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners
of American society, and finds himself an exile in
his own land.' Those words still hold true forty years
later," Pitts continued. "The condition of our people
has not changed."
Pitts said, 'We cannot wait, because we are
dealing with a life or death situation. The condition of
the black man and woman in this country is growing
worse with the dawn of every new day."
The evening concluded as the Valor Voices
of Praise of Zion, Illinois led the audience in song and
praise of God and recognition that we are all necessary
for the well-being of each other.

Disc Golf Club Seeks few Members...
Golf Courses Closed\ But You Still Want
to Play?
Russell Harris
Reporter
Recently, The Ranger News had the opportunity to
speak w ith the president of UW-Parkside's golf disc club,
Rob Talatzko. Talatzko began his term as president at the
beginning of the year after serving as vice president. There
are currently about twenty members in the disc golf club,
and Talatzko said, "Whether it is course upkeep or planning
a tournament, we feel that students should be involved. We
encourage students to join to have input as to what happens
with disc golf here at UW-Parkside. The club is also trying
to create a travelling team that would play other universities
around the state. It is a great way to meet other people who
4re interested in the sport." When asked if anybody can play
here at the university, Talatzko said, "Anyone and everyone is
welcome and encouraged to play here. Community members
as well as students and faculty are welcome to play." When
asked for one word that best describes the disc golf experience,
Talatzko said, "Relaxing."
If you are like me, you might not know much about
the sport or its rules. Disc golf is played like traditional golf,
but instead of clubs and golf balls, a disc is used. Disc golf
is played with almost all of the same rules as traditional golf,
with the biggest difference being that you get penalized for
getting your disc caught in the trees. You can play year-round
and in any weather. There are amateur and pro tee pads, too.
As far as additional equipment is concerned, Talatzko said,
"First, one needs a disc, and not a Frisbee. These discs are
specialized for maximum speed and rotation. Second, the
discs are thrown into a basket that is hung with suspended
chains. As for cost, the course here at UW-Parkside is completely
free. Many of the courses throughout the United
States are free." Records are kept only for tournaments that
take place here on campus. Also, if a player gets a hole-in-one
(Ace) they get to write their name on the wooden tee posts
at the tee pads. Talatzko said, "The leagues are always going.
The club has provided leagues and even sponsored a tournament.
There is also a Professional Disc Golf Association
(PDGA) that holds tournaments and gives prizes and cash pay
outs." If you're interested in joining the disc golf club, go to
one of their meetings in Molinaro Hall, D139, on Wednesdays
at 12:00 PM.
Kung Fu Concepts: The Experience
Having no formal training in any fighting or martial arts background, I was feeling a
little nervous as I walked into the dance studio. Peng was at the door welcoming and eagerly
waiting to see how many students would show up for his class. I say "his class because
he conducts the class very professionally and is well prepared. Peng has been teaching and
refining his teaching methods for three semesters now. After handing out a syllabus and an
insurance waiver, he told us to take off our shoes and socks and form a circle. I was still quite
nervous, but Peng gave us a brief overview of lesson one and then walked around to each
person for some one-on-one time. In less than five minutes I was defending, attacking, and
deflecting. Peng made sure everyone understood what he was teaching and felt comfortable
before he moved on.
After class I was excited to come back for lesson two and I was delighted I overcame
my fear and signed up for Peng's class. The class is free, and Peng recommends you bring
a mouth guard and a cup for protection, if you're a female, you only need to bring a mouth
guard. There are very few things at UW-Parkside that you can participate in for free, but this
has to be one of the best. I strongly urge any students who are interested in saving a life to
come by and check out Peng's Kung Fu experience. And who knows, the life you might someday
save may be your own.
Parkside Women's Basketball Team Third in Conference
Written by Michael Lui
The Parkside Women's Basketball Team is 13-9 overall, and 10-6 in the conference.
They are currently in third place in the GLVC (Great Lakes Valley Conference) which is one
of the toughest NCAA Division II conferences in the nation. They have a strong team which
is only looking to get better next year when four of their five starters will return.
Sammy Kromm, Parkside's junior center, is also closing in on the overall career
points record which is held by Laurie Pope. When asked about the record she said, "I'm
excited about the record, but not as excited as everyone else around me is." She was more
focused on the team improving and making it deep into the postseason. She just wants the
team to keep on winning.
With the good team record that Parkside is posting this year, they are hoping they
will be able to recruit some good talent, and have a great program for years to come. They
have already signed Nicole Watzlawick a 6'1" recruit from Hampshire High School in
Illinois.
The women will not play at home for the remainder of the year finishing up their
conference schedule with two important road games. Then they will play in the GLVC tournament
in Evansville, which starts March 3.
M All-Star Game Exciting Even Without King James
Written by Michael Lui
The NBA Ail-Star game went down to die final seconds as the Western Conference
barely pulled out the victory over the Eastern Conference 136-132. The All- Star weekend
was held in L.A., and included all of die normal festivities, including the dunk contest and
three point contest on Saturday.
The hometown heroes didn't disappoint as the Lakers Kobe Bryant scored 20 points,
and Shaquille O'Neal scored 24 points and was the All-Star game's MVP. Kobe did hear
some boos from die hometown crowd when he opted to make a lay up instead of a dunk on a
breakaway in the third quarter.
Lebron James wasn't voted onto the Ail-Star team, much to the dislike of many
NBA fans. Lebron is one of the top rookies in the NBA and is starting to assert himself as
one of die leagues best players. He was masterful in the Rookie-Sophomore game widi some
unbelievable dunks.
Tim Duncan ended up sealing the victory for the West with 29 seconds left on a
bank shot. He had a typical game with 14 points and 13 rebounds. He isn't a high flyer so
he can't amaze the crowd with gravity-defying dunks.
I racy McGrady and Vince Carter threw down some of the best dunks of the night.
Allen Iverson played a weird role in the game as the NBA's scoring leader so far this season,
only had 3 points. Iverson did dish out 11 assists in the game most of them on passes for
thunderous dunks.

I'm back with more questions. Keep sending them!
Even though your question may not make it in this
issue there is a good possibility of it making the
next. Once again I will put a disclaimer saying that
I am simply answering the questions that I receive.
FIND #1
I would like to know how I can improve the taste
of my sperm. I want to know how diet and exercise
can improve the taste. I went to ask Alice from
Columbia University, and she said the you or your
partner you should do a taste test. Sample some
before and after you workout to see if you can taste
the difference. Whether or not you alter your diet or
exercise patterns, your semen, like your breath and
perspiration, has a taste and smell of its own -- so,
any modifications you make only have a limited
effect. If there is a problem with the taste altogether
you should do an experiment on what foods you are
eating. If you're eating foods heavy on the garlic
and onions, remember they produce strong odors.
Try cutting out dairy and see what it's like then. Try
eating pineapple and exotic fruits. If you smoke or
drink, you may want to limit your intake because
it could also leave a funky taste in your partner's
mouth.
http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu
FIND #2
Does having sex in a hot shower or a hot tub
kill sperm? Is it safe to
have sex in a hot tub?
No, having sex in a hot
shower, hot tub, or in any
kind of watery environment
does not protect
against pregnancy or sexually
transmitted infections. The scrotum, the pouch
that contains the testes, maintains the testes at a
temperature approximately five degrees less than
the rest of the body (about 93.6F). This function is
important to fertility because the process of sperm
production is heat sensitive. In hot temperatures, the
muscles in the scrotum relax, and the testes move away from the heat of the body.
Conversely, in cold temperatures, the muscles of the scrotum contract so that the
testes can maintain their five-degree temperature difference. The increase in the
temperature caused by sitting in a hot tub can indeed interfere with normal sperm
production, but not enough to be considered an effective form of birth control.
Men with fertility problems are usually told to avoid hot tubs and saunas. For men
with normal fertility, using a condom or another form of birth control is better than
not using any protection at all.

Desert Island CD: Diversity If you were stuck on a desert island, what is the one CD you would want to have?
By Aaron Zabler
It is impossible for me to pick only one CD to have on a desert island-should I ever have the obscure chance to be stranded on an island
and be allowed the opportunity to pick which CD I would like to keep with me. This is because I hold myself to a certain code and try to apply it to
every aspect of my life. Music is one area where it is fervently practiced. This "code" simply takes the idea behind paintings by Claude Monet—that
the diversity of the color creates a whole and that whole is the painting you perceive. Its analogous implications are infinite but quite simply it means
that I am willing to try almost anything and that for happiness to exist it is imperative that I institute diversity within my life—and thereby, attempt
to make it whole.
Therefore, due to my necessity for diversity, I would need to construct a compilation CD, something like this.
Track 1 Better off Alone by Alice Deejay (to get the party started on an ironic note)
Track 2 Remember to Breath by Dashboard Confessional
Track 3 Faint by Linkin Park
Track 4 Serenade for Strings in C major op. 48 by Peter I. Tschaikowsky
Track 5 In the Mood by The Glenn Miller Orchestra
Track 6 Open Road Song by Eve6
Track 7 Fast as You by Dwight Yokem
Track 8 Can't Cry Hard Enough by The Williams Brothers
Track 9 You Always Hurt the One You Love by The Mills Brothers
Track 10 Here's to the Night by Eve6
Track 11 California Love by 2Pac
Track 12 (Sic) by Slipknot (for those bad days on the island)
Track 13 Pre-Ex-Girlfriend by Five Iron Frenzy
Track 14 Final Slow Dance by MxPx
I think this divergence of color would create a sufficiently whole, Desert Island CD.
Album Review:
Emery
The Weak's End
By: George "DRU" Drury
Emery's debut
on Tooth & Nail records
treads ground familiar to
many bands on the record
store racks. It is essentially
another screamo album, but
where many of the bands
content attempting to emulate
bands such as Thursday
and Thrice, it is evident that
Emery has the potential to
surpass those bands. With
the quiet/loud dynamic working
throughout many of the songs
on the album, you can hear that
the members of the band are
skilled musicians. Emery takes
the screamo sound and builds
on it with keyboards and the
singing ability of three vocalists.
Though there are screamed
vocals present in many of the
tracks, they aren't consistently
the focus, instead the screams are
relegated to the background, and
in the foreground, dual vocals
intertwine melodically. Though
the opening track "Walls" is perhaps
the strongest on the album
showcasing many of the band's
skills, the keyboard and vocals
opening of "Fractions" hints
at the emotion the band is
capable of conveying. Despite
the fact that the album falls
into the trappings of the genre,
it should not be dismissed
as another copycat release
because, on a close listening,
there is a beauty that is yearning
to get out. Overall, it's an
album capable of fulfilling the
listener's emo and screamo
desires.
Sometimes we don't always know what to
expect when unwrapping gifts. Come and see

A Candid Interview
with Poison The Well
By: Katie Dylewski
After forming in Florida in *97,
the ambitious boys of Poison The
Well (PTW) e-mailed their way into
tours and shows with bands including
Thursday, Saves The Day, and
Hatebreed — and all at the collective
age of 17. Six years and three albums
later, they're headlining a national tour
with Thrice, The Bled, Murder By
Death, and The Kinison. After closing
the February 13th show in Milwaukee,
guitarists Ryan Hornbrook and Derek
Miller sat down with me to talk about
PTW and their thoughts on many different
topics, including their views on
dmgs and the validity of people who
use them to create music.
KD: Thoughts on drugs?
DM: As in?
RH: Like hard drugs?
KD: As in, I'm not saying, "Oh, what
kind of drugs do you use? " But...
RH: (laughs) Doing a line of coke off
girl's boobs. Totally.
KD: Is an artist less credible if they
can only create when under the influence
of something?
DM: There's nobody that can say
somebody's art is cheaper because...
no, that's bullsh*t.
KD: You think?
DM: I really do. Like somebody says,
well I know, actually Brad an I had this
big argument -
RH: It was actually you, me, Brad and
Steve.
DM: And it was just that, I mean, if
you're strung out on heroin and you
write a great song, and someone says,
"oh, that wasn't you, that was the
heroin talking"; that's bullsh*t. Moods
are dictated by chemicals in your brain
anyway. What matters is that you
meant it. I drink cheap wine and
cheap beer, and — you know, every few
months I'll smoke a little bit of weed.
That's the most I ever do, and that's the
most I've ever done. I think it's just
too careless and risky to mess around
with other dmgs. I'm not really into
not being in control of what I'm doing.
I get dmnk and do stupid things, but
I'm aware.
RH: Think, in a lifetime, how many
stupid things people do sober.
DM: Yea exactly. I think it's about an
equal ratio.
KD: Okay, so if I can tap into my creativity,
with no drug enhancement, and
write a great song, and Mr. Guy needs
heroin to do the same thing, how could
you possibly respect us equally?
DM: I really don't agree. The Flaming
Lips, for example. Those guys take a
lot of acid, and they're not shy about it
- one of their records is called "Acid".
They call themselves "acid-rock", and
if you listen to it, you can imagine what
LSD must feel like. If you were on it,
it would probably be really intense to
listen to. But they're still good; [the
music] still works for people like me
who don't take [acid], I think it's none
of our business, because the bottom
line, for me, which I rarely think this:
Ideally, I'd like to listen to a record,
and know nothing about the band.
Their name, what they look like, what
dmgs they do, what their morals are
- Put on a record completely blinded.
When you take all these things into
account, all of a sudden you're judging
them.
RH: I don't know. It's like, kinda
funny, in today's looser moral concept—
at le ast in America, like, how it
matters so much more now what dmgs
people do. No one cared that Charlie
Parker was f*ckin' doing heroin, and
wasted, and beating the crap out of his
wife in 1947. No one gave a crap. All
they knew is that Charlie Parker put
out awesome records.
DM: Or Phil Spector.
RH: Yeah, exactly. Phil Spector beat
the crap out of Ronnie Spector.
RH: Even in the socially conscious
dichotomy of punk rock, I don't
hear anyone complaining about the
Ramones' record, "Road To Ruin",
which he pretty much produced and
co-wrote. I don't think it matters.
Like, who am I to judge anybody for
what they choose to do with their personal
body. I mean, the heroin didn t
write the song.
KD: I mean, yeah. It did come from
them. But as far as judging, we all
do it whether we want to or not. And
yeah, I '11 still listen to their music, but
I won't be as impressed. I mean, it's
almost impossible to not let knowledge
of someone's background affect your
opinion of their art, or music, or anything.
DM: No. I mean, I see why you think
that way. I mean, yeah, my opinions
on this bounce back from time to time.
Like, I've had bad experiences with
bands I really liked, and I'm like "Am
I going to let that affect the way I hear
their songs?" Sometimes yes; sometimes
no.
RH: When it's like, you care about
music and abuse substances occasionally,
fine. Then it turns to, yeah; you
care about substances and abuse music
occasionally. That's the line for me.
When what you're doing is less important
than getting f*cked-up, then I lose
respect for you. As opposed to, care
about what you're doing so much, that
whatever you do extracurricularly definitely
takes a backseat to what you do.
It's definitely a different thing, because
eveiyone music or non-music: 99.9%
of America's population, yeah, they
get dmnk on the weekends. Yeah, they
do sh*t they're ashamed of, sober or
dmnk. But for me, the line is drawn
when being an addict is more important
than being- an artist.

Movie Review: 21 Grams
By Jim Burzelic
This movie is not about drugsY. es, someone
in it has a drug addiction but that isn't the focus of
the film. What the title refers to is the amount of
weight that the human body loses at the moment
of death. The tagline for the film, "How much does
life weigh?", is the underlying question throughout
as three lives intertwine, culminating in a sacrifice
to ultimately save everyone involved.
In a non-linear narrative directed by
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, we learn about Paul
Rivers (Sean Penn) a mathematician with a critical
heart condition, Christina Peck (Naomi Watts) an
ex-drug addict who has found new purpose in her
family, and Jack Jordan an ex-con who is now on
the straight and narrow with Jesus. Their lives come
together in a tragic accident and fly out of control
until they force themselves together once again.
All three actors give amazing
performances of bitter illness, religious
conviction, and heart-breaking loss. This
alone is worth the admission. The direction
is also well done with individual scenes
working as small stories on their own. The
story is compellingly told as these three
unrelated people come together under the
tenible circumstances of a car accident.
The transitions between scenes
however trip up the momentum of the film
by being shown out of sequence. More
time is spent trying to figure out when the
action is happening and how the scenes
relate to each other than should be keeping
the audience from connecting to them as
quickly. The voice-over narration, while
delivered well, is somewhat cheesy, hitting the viewers
over the head with the message where it isn't necessarily
warranted.
Overall, 21 Grams is an excellent movie with only
a couple imperfections and worthy of the accolades it is
given.

Revenge of the Black
Mamba:
An Allegory
Written By
Bill J. Turner
Edited By
Tess Tobon
Chapter II of VI
This entire thought process took a split
second. Meanwhile, the Mamba had given up on the
rabbit and changed course, now focused completely
on the bicycle. As attack was imminent, the student
had the feeling that he was free-falling. The feeling
was one of being swept away by a large wave, or
by the wind in a hurricane. Swept away, but not for
long, because the monster was on him in a nanosecond.
As the Black Mamba raised its head and
the forward quarter of its body to strike, Malcolm
inadvertently stopped peddling, causing the bike to
reduce speed sufficiently, causing the snake to miss
its target (his leg), and strike instead the spokes of
the front wheel, directly behind the front fork. This
was not a prescient moment; he had 110 foresight of
this happening. He had inexplicably slowed and
caused the miscalculation of the strike. The snake's
head, with its teeth engaging the spokes, was caught
hard up against the fork holding the front wheel.
When he realized what had happened, he knew
that he had a chance, a fighting chance, to win this
battle.
Epinephrine surged through his body now,
as the adrenal gland secreted the hormone affecting
circulation and increasing muscular strength by an
unknown factor. The exhilaration he felt at this time,
he knew must be similar to that felt by warriors
from time immemorial. However, at this time, at this
place, on this bike path, he was ready. He felt his
strength and energy as never before. His brain was
processing information and delivering instructions to
all of his bodily functions with the speed of the fastest
computer. He needed this influx of energy and
strength from the inboard computer encased within
his skull.
As he dismounted, he continued to push the
bike forward, keeping the pressure on the snake's
head, thereby trapping it against the fork. He quickly
slipped out of his backpack and eased the zipper
open, took a quick look at the head of the Mamba
to make sure it was still trapped against the fork,
thrashing violently, attempting to escape.
Now7 he readied the pack for its soon to
be deadly package. The idea now was to place the
snake in the cargo hold of the pack in the most
effective, efficient, and least dangerous manner.
Head first or tail first? Should he grasp the head,
which is strong and has sharp teeth and all that
venom; or does he try for the tail, which would be
difficult to control as he reaches the mid-section
of the body, where the Mamba's greatest strength
resides. Malcolm laughed as he enjoyed a flashback
to junior high days, when searching the crags and
crevices in those low mountains in Arkansas, just
east of Fort Smith. Oh yes, and those huge Eastern
Diamondback Rattle snakes in the palmettos of
southwestern Florida, where he and his brother had
located a large one, almost six feet in length. His
brother had the forked stick firmly in place, directly
behind the head. He had chopped the head off with a
hatchet; a juvenile act. It had taken two hard strokes
to sever the head from the body. The memory of that
outing almost made him sick. We do not kill animals,
even reptiles.
This is a six-part, serialized short
story. Stay tuned throughout the semester
for the continuation Revenge of the Black
Mamba: An Allegory.

The very holiday I was trying to
forget was in my face as I watched my
roommate's face light up as her boyfriend
entered my apartment. I was trying
to make this day like any other normal
day, but how could I? The neighbor
came over and dropped off flowers for
the single girls, claiming "Every woman
should have a flower on Valentine's Day."
What a thoughtful gesture, but what was
weird, was that he took the flower from
his girlfriends bouquet. Comic relief
began playing a huge part in my V-Day
night.
Valentine's Day seems to be a
made up holiday for hallmark to make
more money. But every year wc all buy
into the feeling behind it. You always
hear the singles complain about this day;
the anti-Valentine's parties people throw,
which are just to meet the opposite sex so
they don't feel bad, hearing girls say that
they don't need men, and guys using this
holiday to get laid. I found myself feeling
really odd, it was a weird feeling. I slept
in late, worked out, and cleaned my apartment.
I thought if I stayed busy, the odd
feeling would leave my soul.
I was reflecting on my past relationships.
Remembering the good times
brought a smile to my face. But I hit reality
when I started to wonder about my most
recent EX. I started to wonder what he
would be doing, and then I wondered who
he would be doing. What a sick thought.
I ordered pizza and did a little
homework before we started to watch bull
riding for the first time. I h ave never been
to a rodeo before, so I was shocked to see
a man ride a bull...I guess men really do
know how to work their hips! But I did
notice these bull fanatics can only ride for
like ten seconds. Typical male. Then I went
and turned on Queens of Comedy. This was
funnier than getting a flower from another
girls bouquet. It brought continuous laughter
and was the only thing that helped me
forget that it was Valentine's Day.
Next time you are alone on Valentine's
Day remember that no one really knows the
origin of the day, large amount of chocolates
make you fat, you didn't have to spend any
money, and bull riding is where it's at. It's
nice to know that someone cares about you,
but I would rather know that more than one
day a year.
We love feedback!

The Art of the Heart
By Henry Gaskins
Happy belated Valentine's Day to all
readers of Exposing the Sexes. The "heart
holiday" has come and gone, and for the first
time in years, I silently observed the day as a
single man.
Pior to lately, I had been pondering
the idea of soul mates. All thoughts were put
on hold when I found out it was February,
because I didn't want to meet someone
knowing Valentine's Day was right around
the corner, and then struggle to find out
what the perfect Valentine's gift might be for
someone I've known less than 15 days.
I think Valentine's Day is an opportunity
to take a relationship to a higher level,
whether it's by reaching third base, saying "I
love you," or even offering a lifetime of marriagc.
And if I were to meet a person within
the aforementioned timeframe, I would probably
not be ready to get very serious, unless
it is someone I have studied and know really
well, such as Nelly Furtado.
For me, being single throughout
those two weeks wasn't easy. The couples
I know seemed to be genuinely closer, and
I saw heart balloons, roses for sale, and red
Hershey's Kisses every time I turned around.
Generally, I can handle all that, because the
"soul mate search" isn't a top priority of
mine. But as Jimi Hendrix said, "Loneliness
is such a drag," and I could definitely identify
with that for those two weeks.
That whole time, I tried to keep in
mind there are more important aspects of
life that I want to aim for. I try to make my
priorities as follows: academics number one,
job number two, enjoyment of life number
three, and as long as I stay busy with these
things, the search for a soul mate is usually
on the backburner. But for every moment I
am happy being single, there is a half of a
moment of emptiness, which doesn't bother
me too much, because I generally feel like
it is within myself to stay strong, heading in
the direction I want my life to go with minimal
distraction.
I'm not a guy who thinks February
14 is just a Hallmark Holiday, though. It is
a noteworthy day, because it gives couples
the extra opportunity to express how they
feel about each other. And I can't really say
that's a bad thing or act bitter just because
I'm single. Although, I have noticed plenty
of single people cursing Valentine's Day
and acting bitter, including myself, which I
believe is due to the subjective nature that
lies within humanity. When I think about it,
I appreciate what it is worth, single or not.
I even wore a red sweater that day to show
my encouragement to all those people seeking
white picket-fence land, but I definitely
consider myself more of a "blues" kind of'
guy.

Speaking the truth about our country's history of racist slavery is far more important
than material reparation, according to Marable. "Reparation is not fundamentally about
the money," he said. Marable used the analogy of a rape victim who doesn't sue a rapist for
monetary compensation, but for the truth to be known. Similarly, Holocaust victims sought
the same from their Nazi persecutors, as did Japanese Americans who were interned in U.S.
concentration camps during World War II. What is needed is an honest discussion, however
painful it may be, that the U.S. was built on chattel slavery. He listed the White house, the
U.S. Capitol Building, the Washington Monument, Wall Street, and such Ivy League universities
as Brown and Yale as being partially built and financed by the sweat and blood
of enslaved African Americans. How does acknowledging the foundations of our country's
history change how we live today? When we acknowledge our shared history of racism, we
then have a moral responsibility to redress the crimes of the past, Marable said.
Continued from page 7
Marable and managing editor Chervil Y. Greene, is published jointly by the Institute for Research in
African-American Studies at Columbia University and Taylor and Francis publishers, and distributed
nationally and internationally.
In 2001, Dr. Marable initiated the "Malcolm X Project" at Columbia University. The research
project includes the development of a Malcolm X e-course, combining several Malcolm X biographies
edited by Marable, as well as Alex Haley's The Autobiography of Malcolm X.
In 2002, Dr. Marable launched the "Africana Criminal Justice Project," with finding from
the Open Society Institute (Soros Foundation). The project encourages the development of civic capacity
building and leadership training among former prisoners, and proposes fundamental legal reforms
within the criminal justice system and the prison industrial complex.
Dr. Marable is perhaps the most widely read intellectual within the African American community.
Since 1976, he has written Along the Color Line, a syndicated political affairs series that
regularly appears in over four hundred black-owned and black-oriented mass publications throughout
the United States, as well as in Canada, the United Kingdom, the Caribbean, and India. Marable also
recently published The Great Wells of Democracy, a book which lays out his thesis on racial history
and politics and proposes strategies for a more inclusive democracy.
Dr. Marable is featured frequently in national and international media as an expert on the history
and politics of race in the Lnited States. He regularly appears on media programs such as CNN's
Talk-Back Live, C-SPAN, the NBC Today
show, ABC Weekend News, Fox Network
News, the Charlie Rose show, BBC television
and radio, Japanese television, National Public
Radio, and the Pacifica Radio Network. He
donates much of his time to fundraising and
speaking on behalf of prisoners' rights, civil
rights, labor, faith-based institutions, and manysocial
justice organizations. Dr. Marable also
lectures annually in Sing Sing Prison, Ossining,
NY, in the M.A. program for prisoners.

Straight But Not Narrow
By: August-Marie Wagner-Richardson
W hen the Black Student Union (BSU) became aware of the vandalizing of here
decorated window which advertised their sponsored film "Mississippi Burning," the entire
organization came together, inviting faculty members and students of all ethnic and racial
backgrounds to march with them from the Union to Main Place in protest against the
ignorant act. Even a TV News crew was notified and came out to cover the event, which
made front page of the local newspapers the next day!
Why is it then, that when the invitational fliers of Rainbow Alliance were both
vandalized and torn down on various campus grounds, including classrooms and hallways
mainly in the CART building, none of the members lifted a finger to protest against this
horrific form of harassment?
Carol Vopat, an English Professor, requested some of the vandalized fliers so that
she could place them on supporting faculty office doors, to "promote open-mindedness."
The organization itself has passively opted to reprint the fliers and "post them high
enough where they can not be easily torn down."
First of all, Rainbow Alliance should NOT have to go out of their way to prevent,
their legally posted materials from being vandalized. They have the right to post fliers and
other materials just as any other student organization.
Secondly, prejudice does not only affect those of minority racial groups. Ignorance
knows no creed, ethnicity, race, or sexual preference. This is harassment against an
organization that offers a safe haven to LGBT's and their allies. I am appalled that this
crime is being taken so lightly.
As a supporter of Rainbow Alliance, I challenge its members and other openminded
individuals to stand up and NOT allow your rights as students and humans to be
trampled upon.
Demand the respect that you deserve!
Editor's Note: In an effort to support Rainbow Alliance, The Ranger News has
inserted a free advertisement for the organization on page five.
Returned Purse: a Symbol of Hope
By Victoria Schuebel
As of Friday, January 23,1 had made my complete metamorphosis into a cynical
drone of society. Through numbing experiences and articles that prove things like, "love
is not an emotion, but a chemical release of dopamine in the brain," I figured there is no
purpose in life except to procreate. Usually I am a deep thinker and whimsical dreamer,
. but I was now drowning in a bland rationality of acceptance.
Just when I decided all was lost, something wonderful happened to twist my mind
back into a positive direction. I lost my purse the following Saturday night, with money,
gift cards, and bank statements in it. I was very upset, but Monday morning I got call at 8
a.m. A lady reported someone turned in my purse, so I went down to receive it, and to my
amazement nothing was missing. The lady did not take the young man's name so I have
no other way to thank him, other than to write this article and hope he sees it.
The point I am trying to get to is one that an entire academic course questions at
UW-Parkside. In philosophy of religion, a person is to question ethics, and while there
are many presumed ways to fight evil, religion and ethics may have nothing to do with it.
I'll take my new cynical, "take things as they are" approach here; for whatever made this
young man return the purse non-invaded, it matters not. What matters here is that he did a
joyous thing, by inspiring me with a new hope for our human lives. This solution may not
be the way to take on all situations (for example murder) but I 11 figure that out later.
Finally I hope this corny true tale will inspire drowsy, paranoid hermits, and soon
to become grumpy old men and woman. I hope that we can see now that even if there is
no purpose here, and no eternity with flowing beer and palm trees, that we can inspire each
other, we can make this time here as joyful as possible-to ourselves and others.
Union Expansion?
B • 1 • : VJS:X)A : s? . v U V.'
I'd like to address a topic concerning ail my fellow
students. There are voices S]>eaking on the behalf of
those who pay tuition. These voices are casting votes that
mill make drastic changes to our current system. The student
body isn't even presented with the option of obtaining
proper knowledge regarding these legislative decisions. The
student government has promised and has even claimed to
speak for and represent the student body at UW-Parkside. If
they have lived up to their word, then I must proceed by asking
my fellow students a few crucial questions. Whate xactly
is your hard-e arned money being used t or? Shouldn't your
student government keep you thoroughly informed about
issues of this nature? If they won't take the initiative, then
1 feel it is my duty to step forward and shed light in corners

uw-p displayS mission statement posters on campus
ByMilanka Sulejic
What is a mission statement and
whyis it important that each University
have one? Larry Deutisch, who
has much to say about the mission
statement for UW-Parkside, has an
answer to this question and many
more.
Thereis an overall mission for all of
the schools in the UW-system, but
each individual university has their
own mission statement. The original
mission statement of the University
when it first opened its doors in 1968
endured 30 years before the Board of
Regionsapproved the changes to the
mission statement in 1998. The idea
firstcame about in 1996, when it was
suggested that the mission statement
should be one that is less wordy and
moreeasily understood by everyone.
The original mission statement of
the University was quite lengthy and
difficult to comprehend. Between
1996 . and 1998 the changing of the
mISSIon statement was a campus
process that involved students, staff,
and faculty adding their input about
what the University stands for and
what it should stand for in the future.
What should the University provide
for its current students and offer
to potential students who may choose
to attend UW-Parkside? Why is the
mission statement important? The
Board of Regions wants the University
to live up to a certain standard. Il
serves as a guide not only to those
who work for the University, but to
those attending the University as
well. "The University of WisconsinParkside
is committed to high quality
educational pr0l>rams, creative and
scholarly activities, and services
responsive to its diverse student pop-

The UW-P mission statement poster, designed by Kelly Vida, is a recent addition to the halls
and classrooms of the University.
class was asked to come up with a
design that would accompany the
mission statement. Of the class of
twenty-five, approximately six students
designs were chosen as finalists,
and of those six students, Kelly Vida's
design was chosen. Once the posters
were made, they were placed all over
the university for everyone to see.
"They wanted a design to catch
your eye from a distance and hold
your attention until you were right up
to the poster, studying and reading it
with great interest, and that is what
Kelly Vida had accomplished with her
winning design." They were placed
next to every Xerox.machine, coffeepot,
and classroom throughout the
University.
ulation, and its local, national, and
global communities."
The University won an award for
its diverse student population and
strives to achieve what they have stated
in the mission statement. The
Board of Regions is looking for input
from students about their experiences
at the University. Il is the individual
student's responsibility to take advantage
of what is being offered to them.
If they feel for whatever reason the
University has not fulfilled what they
have promised, they can bring that to
the attention of the Board of Regions.

~f the available organizations in
the whole of Parkside that are now

clubjust starting is SIA (Students in
Action).Look for them and others on
your bulletin boards for available
timesand meetings.
What difference do these have on
ourlives and the community? (All the
difference in the world it appears).
The clubs facilitate and strengthen
speaking out for your interests and
theinterests of the choices available to
thosewhose words are not heard. One
person can start a movement in
thought and amplify it by using an
existing club or creating a group of
same minded persons. Your interests
and concerns are felt by others, put
them together and create action from
thepotential of the surn.
Clubs are also a great influence in
that their members' set standards they
are examl?les for others to follow. Our
campus, Its cleanliness and effectivenessineducating
are a product of this.
Hseems Parkside is our responsibility
asit is responsible for our education.

Dear Editors,
.A recent issue of The Ranger contamed
what I believe to be an unfair
review of th~ recently released movie
Hanrubal. FITst, Jodie Foster's name
was spelled incorrectly in the review.
Second, not all sequels should be
Judged agamst their predecessors.
If one was to fairly judge Hannibal
against the award-winning The Silence
of the Lambs, Hannibal would have
had to contain the following:
1 ) Jodie Foster as Clarice Starling.
Early news reports claimed that Foster
turned down twenty million dollars to
star because she didn't agree with the
scripted ending or Harris' novel (which
contained Starling partaking in Lecter's
dinner after being drugged to the point
of insanity) while Hannibal producer
Dina De Laurentis now reports that
Foster refused to do the film for anything
less than a 20 million salary plus
half the film's profits. (It has made
more than three million dollars worldwide
in three weeks.) 2) Jonathan
Demme as the director. Every director
has their own style, and obviously the
style in TSOTL differs from what Ridley
Scott did in Hannibal. 3) A screenplay
by Ted Tally, rather than the
WHAT'S ON
YOUR
RESUME?
If you are an English major
or aspiring journalist, and
have not yet written for a
newspaper, what are you
waiting for?
Add skills to your resume
that employers are looking
for - writing, interviewing,
editing and so much more.
The Ranger News is now
hiring all positions for the
Spring 2001 semester. Stop
by the office, located across
from the Career Center in
lower Wyllie hall.
Meetings are Mondays from
noon to Ip.m. and are open
to all interested person~.
When you graduate,
what will you have .
to offer?
Mamet-Zailian screenplay that was
used. 4) A score by Howard Shore,
rather than the score by Hans Zimmer.
I personally believe the Zimmer score
to be vastly superior to Shore's. Only if
the entire cast and crew from TSOTL
had been assembled to shoot Hannibal
could the two movies be fairly compared.
and Leeter free to roam are vastly different.
A lot of what he does in his first
scene with Starling in the asylum ("...all
those tedious sticky fumblings in the
back seats of cars while all you could
think about was getting out, getting
anywhere, getting all the way to the FB-I.")
is meant to scare her, to freak her
out. People remember that scene, and
don't remember as much the ending
phone call, where he acts much more
like he does in Hannibal.
My advice: If you don't mind a little
gore, see the movie, and keep in mind
that a lot of it is more black comedy
than it is psychological thriller.
Sincerely,
Molly Beecher
For the most part, Hannibal follows
Harris' novel directly (with the exception
of the ending). A few charactersare
missing, as well asp few trips down
Dr. Lecter's memory lane, but these are
details that make literature literature
and not a movie script. It would do a
viewer well to remember that TSOTL
was about Clarice Starling -Hannibal is
about Hannibal Lecter.
The author of The Ranger's
review also mentions that Julianne
Moore doesn't capture the innocent
and proud determination of Foster's
portrayal - she's not supposed
to. Starling in Hannibal is ten years
older and ten years wiser. Her
career with the Bureau hasn't been
what we'd like to believe it would
be after the events of TSOTL.
We also must remember that we
are seeing Lecter in a different light
than TSOTL. Lecter behind bars

By Lyrm Garcia
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has
been nominated for ten academy
awards, including Best Picture. At first I
was not really excited about seeing this
film, even though everyone Ispoke with
raved about it. As Ibegan watching the
film I was totally mesmerized by it. It
was absolutely fabulous! The movie has
English subtitles, but as the story progresses
Iforgot they were even there.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the
story of two warriors (Yun-Fat Chow
and Michelle Yeoh) whose quest is to
recover a stolen special sword, the Green
Destiny. The hunt' to recover the sword
takes the viewer on a spellbinding journey
on rooftops and though tree branches.
Woo-ping Yuen, who also worked on
The Matrix, choreographed the fantastic
fight scenes.
I highly recommend seeing this
movie. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is
the perfect date movie. It has magnificent
action for the men and breathtaking
romance for the ladies. Ihore that this
film takes home a lot 0 Academy
Awards because it definitely deserves
them.

TrJllhis for fun
By Sheree Homer
Ranger Fest is to be held on April
21st, from 12-4 pm in the student
union. It is a festival and open house
designed to reach out to the community.
School Spirit has been lower in the
last couple of years according to Chancellor
Keating. He thought a festival
would be a great way for students,
staff, and community to join together
and have some fun. This is the first
year that it has been ,called Ran(\er
Fest. In April of 1998 UW-Parkslde
held a sprmg Open House Festival.
This is also the first time it has been
funded. Ranger Fest hopes to have
much success, so it can return every
year.
John Rae Stevenson and Nicole
Sicuro ' are the chair people and have
worked hard on getting everything
ready. Student organizations and some
of the majors have already decided to
share in the fun by opening exhibits.
Some of the exhibits include an inflatable
sky dome similar to the planetarium,
an ocean bubble where people can
view the marine life of an ocean, a
water quality test, so the community
can test their water for lead and other
harmful ingredients, free blood pressure
screening, mocktail.

United Council regularly lobbies the

aid has never been more important.
United Council has always stressed
the importance of student voices in the
shared governance process of the UW
System. United Council has worked to
maintain and strengthen student control
of student fees, and has been a clearinghouse
of information and research on
student safety issues, including e-mail
privacy and the use of social security
numbers as student identification numbers.
Credit transfers, a headache for
many students in Wisconsin, have been
made easier through United Council's
work with UW System and the state Mgislature.
United Council continually opposes
legislation, which would discriminate
against student renters. Additionally,
United Council played an instrumental
role in defeating the Extra Credit Tax,
which would have increased tuition for
many students at UW-Parkside and
across the UW System.
United Council has spent 40 years of

Did YOU lorgel somelhing;J
By Amber Leigh Smith
We as Americans love to go out to
eat. The first date, before a movie,
after the game, mother's birthday, just
.a few of the occasions that cause us to
decide on a restaurant. We think very
carefully about the place, the time,
what we are going to wear, but rarely
do we think about the server who is
bringing our drinks and our dinners.
Let us take a few minutes to think
about what a server's job is like. Then
we may have more respect and more
patience for the people who are at the
heart of our meal, Then some of us
might think that it is not such an easy
job to have.
While it can be said that the general
public on the whole knows how to
act in a restaurant, it can also be said
that quite a few people leave their
manners in the car. Scenario one:
when a server approaches a table that
has just sat down she is required to
give them some basic information,
such as her name, the soup of the day,
and the special of the evening. While
most people politely listen, there are
others who are blurting out what they
want to drink before the server gets
half her name out. The guests have
just set the tone for the next hour and
a half. Beforethe customers have their
drinks in front of them they are considered
rude. Usually if someone is
rude, he or she will not tip well.
Servers live on tips and if they feel
that the tip they are going to receive is
most likely going to be inadequate
they will give minimum service. So
you're saying that everyone should
get good service regardless, right?
How would your job performance be
if your boss came to you and said that
he was going to take two dollars off
your hourly pay? Would you do the
best job you could do? This is exactly
how a server feels when they receive
less than the standard gratuity of fifteen
percent. Sure the server will take
your order and bring your food out to
you, but remember that soda you
were fO eager to get? You might want
to ration it because chances of getting
another. one are slim. Oh need
ketchup? Didn't you hear about the
shortage on that?
People like to feel that they are the
most important guests in the restaurant.
Servers enjoy doing their best to
make the guests feel this way. While
most guests understand that they are
not the server's only responsibility,
there are the exceptions. Let us imagine
a Friday night, all the tables are
full and there is a two hour waiting
list. A family of four has just been
seated at a table in the back of the dining
room. The waitress goes up to the
table and gives them her spiel, Then
she asks the question of the night:
"Can I get you folks something to
drink right away?" The parents
answer no problem, then the mother
asks the question that every server
dreads hearing; "Sally,honey, tell the
nice woman what you want to drink."
Why does the server cringe you ask?
Because she knows what is coming
next. The child's eyes go down and
the face becomes pressed against the
mother's side. Of course Sally is shy.
By this time the server is thinking of
about ten things that she needs to get
done. The man at table ten needs his
check, table four is ready to order,
tables six and eight are waiting on
food that should be ready at any time,
oh right, Sally still needs a soda, or
was it milk? Her mother is still trying
to get shy Sally to order. Now having
a child order for themselves is fine,
when the restaurant is slow. When the
restaurant is full the parents should
order. Would you want to be kept
waiting for someone's child?
Let me point out another situation
that happens all the time. A large
group of people, let us say fourteen,
has enjoyed dinner, drinks, dessert,
and coffee. When the check arrives
the party realizes that they forgot to
tell the man waiting on them that they
needed separate checks, Okay, you are
probably thinking no problem right?
Think about it. The waiter has to go
back and figure out what every single
person at the table had. What man
had how many drinks, what couple
had the steaks, and whose wife had
two desserts. Often the people that ate
the dinner can't remember what they
had to eat, but expect their server to
know. Would you be able to remember?
While the server may be able to

figure it out ins takin!,';away from the
time he should be usmg to check on
his other tables. If his other tables do
not receive good service they will not
tip well. To fix the mistake you made
the server is losing money. So please
remember to ask for separa te checks
ahead of time. If you should forget
realize that it was your mistake and
have everyone throw in what they
think they owe. Next time you will be
sure to remember.
Anyone who has ever worked in
the food service industry will be the
first to tell you that not every night
runs smoothly. The kitchen falls
behind, causing the food to take a
long time getting to the table. Servers
have bad days and may even drop
things. Of course on days like this the
customers will get angry. Most behave
in a calm rational manner, but once
again there is the extreme exception.
We have all seen it, the angry man
banging his fist on the table, yelling at
the person attempting to wait on him,
basically making a scene. When people
act in this manner their complaints
fall on deaf ears. Sure management
will do what they can to calm
this person down, but later in the
evening the staff will have a good
laugh 'at the offender's performance.
Oh, and the people sitting around the
gentleman trying to eat their dinners,
they will feel bad for the waitress,and
think of the man yelling as a foolwith
a lack of control in handling his anger.
The examples shown here arejusta
few. While they may seem a bit
extreme they happen at some level
every day. We generally do not think
of how we are coming across to the
employees of the establishment, but
we need to. The people who work in
the food service industry have high
paced, high stress jobs. We as consumers
need to respect them and the
service that they are providing. While
not all servers are good at their jobs
we need to remember that they are
still people and people deserve
respect and common courtesy. Still
need ketchup? You might want to run
to your car and make sure you didn't
forget your manners.

Remembering
the Homeland
By Poonamdeep Sandhu
The nostalgic memories take my
breath away; Remembering the great
time spent back home; Gone are those
days with the flashing of time; Never to
come back again; I wish, they leave the
footprints behind; Thus' refreshing my
thoughts and mind; The love, care and
affection of friends; Enriched the life
with memorable events; Still, they are
lively and fresh in mind; And appear as
new as an ocean tide; Often, they make
me struggle with my thoughts; Flattering
and making their own huge place; I
really long for those days to come back;
Sure I am they will; When I'll go back to
my homeland.

China Tour
a summer trip; a revelation Students in action
By Kelly Ishihara, President of
S.LA. By Tyrone A Payton
The 5th Annual Summer China Tour
has been set and planned for [une 25th
to July 8th. As usual, Sociology Professor
George Wang, a native of China, has
promptly sponsored the tour. The trip
includes stops to Beijing, Xian, Guilin,
Shanghai, Suzhou, and Hangzhou, with
. plenty of accompanying English speaking
guides for translation. Also, there
can be arrangements set for those students
who wish to visit Hong Kong.
The trip is offered as a three-credit
course for either international studies or
sociology and anthropology. Plus, the
trip is available to community members
as a learning eXJ?erience. There are a
series of orientation lectures that precede
the tour, which will be held Tuesdays
and Thursdays from 6 to 8:30 p.m.
on May 8 to the 24th. Professor Wang
hopes that these lectures teach background
information on Chinese politics,
changing economy, the evolving education
system, family institution and tradition,
and population control. He also
hopes to team students some basic Chinese
for communication, traveling etiquette,
and a simple knowledge of Chinese
customs.
From the six stops, Professor Wang's
children at the Women and Children's
Shelter. We are also asking for volunteers
to do some babysitting.
In major Universities award ceremonies
are held to recognize academic
work on campus. Since U.W.t'arkside
is so small we feel we can reach
this goal through the production of a
journal.
Our first journal is going to be
copied and should be available for a
low price some time after Spring
Break. It is our first attempt at taking
the best of student's academic work in
the classroom and getting them recognized
for their work. Our first journal
is entitled "Through Others Eyes."
However we are going to change the
name. We will also ask the professor
to provide a summary about the subject
matter and his/her intentions on
the assignment.
We will give full credit to each
writer who chooses to be recognized.
Not every class, or every student will
get an opportunity to be published,
but it may be likely that you will. If
you are interested in participating or
want to learn more about S.r.A. you
can contact me at:
ishihara@yahoo.com.
Have you heard about the new dub
on campus? Our main goal since we
began this spring is to get some recognition
for our journal and to recruit
members. The Ideas and motivations
for putting together s.LA. came from
. a modest Eng1ish professor on campus.
Last semester she had students
participate in community service
work, but we were having problems
advertising since we had no sponsor. I
didn't know what I was getting into at
first, but since I had an interest in the
importance of community, and a
desire to be a leader on campus I was
happy to get the club going.
We differ from the Outreach club
because of our intentions of putting
together a journal to recognize student's
academic achievement. However,
we would like to work with
them in the future. Throughout the
semester we will be collecting children's
books for the Community
Action Agency and The Cops and
Kids Reading Program.
We are also collecting blankets for
newborn babies at Kenosha Hospital.
This one you may be familiar with
from last semesfer. We also need volunteers
to work as tutors for yOilllg
tour will start off in Beijing, the capital
of China, so students can leam first
hand about the process of Chinese politics.
From there, the city of Xian, an
ancient caJ?ital of China, will emphasize
Chinese history and integrated culture
and religion. The next stop is the scenic
Guilin, which is a center of tourism in
China, and then on to the most modem
city of China, Shanghai, where students
will learn about economic development.
At the last two stops will be Suzhou and
Hangzhou, relatively small in China
but DOth are considered heavily popu:
lated by global standards. These two
cities will emphasize the importance of
Chinese tradition and family institution.
These six tour stops offer a wide variety
of Chinese development, which is the
main focus of Professor Wang's trip, and
it is what he hopes students will take
back home with them.
To all students who seem interested
in an excursion to China, either attend
the orientation series or call Professor
Wang for more information. His office
number is (262) 595-2520. Also, Laurie
Odegaard in the UW-Parkside Center
for International Studies can provide
information at (262) 595-2701.
Deferring taxes with
TIAA-CREF can be so
rewarding, you'll wonder
why you didn't do it sooner.

Helping Oul
at hOlDe
ByTyrone A Payton
It's been two weeks since the ParksideRanger
published an article about
Dr.Lenny Klaver's transfer from Athletic
Director to Assistant Vice Chancellorof
University relations. It's been
almost five years since he began at
Parkside, and now, with his new position,
he hopes to make the school
grow stronger.
One of his first endeavors was to
establish a new academic program in
athletics with the addition of a Sports
Management Certificate and a Wellness
Certificate. Also, this past fall,
they started the Sports Management
major.Another focus of Dr. Klaver's is
his involvement in the Great Lakes
ValleyConference, which he has supported
in financing from his first days
here.
His personal inclusion in the
fundraising of the GLVC has helped
keep it here at Parkside, which has in
tum, given our athletic department a
boost in competition, as the GLVC is
division II of the NCAA. Although he
admits the program still needs
progress, Dr. Klaver is pleased with its
effortand future direction for the University.
Other pursuits of Dr. Klaver are the
fact that with his new position, he is
now the acting liaison between University
Relations and government
officials. At this command, he hopes
that he'll be able to bring funding to
the University in its endeavor to sponsor
the b<;nefits of higher education.
This position also entails that he must
manage and maintain Parkside's
home page. The most important
emphasis that Dr. Klaver wants to
focus on is the ability for students to
navigate on the home page. He also
plans on manufacturing a new design
and belter procedures and programs
so the home page can operate more
cleanly.
One interesting planned addition is
the addendum of portals for the Parkside
registered student. These portals
will act as the students' personal page
reference for all of their school activities
and business at Parkside. Hopefully,
all of these changes will be operational
by fall, for it is significant to
the school that the integrated marketmg
of the school's communication is
as efficient as it can be for the beginning
of each semester. To quote Dr.
Klaver, "Our main poal is to recruit
and retain students.'
With these future plans, Dr. Klaver
hopes that the school will be able to
expand in its academic and athletic
departments. With this new position
as Assistant Vice Chancellor of University
Relations, Dr. Klaver expects
that students on campus should anticipate
an easier way to communicate
and integrate with all operations here
at Parkside.

Parkside students travel to Costa Rica
By Ruyayeem Rashid
Normally the academic calendar
follows the in the sequence of fall,
sprin(\, and summer. But this year
Parkside has offered Winterim classes
for the 2000-2001school year. Winterim
Classes ranged from various disciplines
like biology, chemistry, geology
and english. Most of these classes are
from one to two credits only. One particular
class took a field trip to Costa
Rica.
One student, Tom Overacker, registered
for the class and summarized the
whole experience as wonderful. So
wonderful that he said, "1 will at some
time definitely travel back to Costa
Rica again!"
When asked why he signed up for
the class, he said, "1 've always enjoyed
traveling and have never had the
opportunity to do international traveling.
What better time to go some place
warm than right in the middle of winter.
I've never really seen volcanoes or
the rain forest, plus 1 wanted to start
t gaining a wider view of different cultures.
All that is ip addition to wanting
to study first hand the geology and
natural history of the region."
There was a structured outline that
Overacker and the rest of the class had
to follow. The purpose was to cover a
large portion of the country in a relatively
short period of 13 days.
Before going to Costa Rica, Overacker
spent 16 hours of classroom preparation
learning a general overview of
the geology and biology of the region.
In addition to the 16 hours of classroom
preparation, he had to select a
topic and do independent research. He
choose to study the volcano "Rincon
de la Vieja". Other preparations for the
trip included a visit to the International
Clinic to obtain vaccinations for
Hepitus A, Typhoid Fever and Milaria.
He also had to obtain a US passport.
A typical day in Costa Rica included
the students waking up early in the
morning to a warm day and a breakfast
of rice and beans. After breakfast, the
class would travel to a new and ·exciting
place, have lunch, explore another
part of the region and return to dinner.
In addition to traveling various parts
. of Costa Rica, Overacker spent two
weeks seeing and taking pictures of
things you would normally see in an
explorer's magazine like Natural Geographic.
.
Some of the most memorable parts
of the trip for Overacker included a
day at the beach, the trip to Monta
Verde, sunset horseback riding, and
several walks thraugh the topical rain
forest.

Survey on University Police
Ratings low among students
Lisa Nowak
Special to the Ranger News
A police officers job is to protect and
care for hislher community. Enforcing the .
law is also a big part of a police officers job.
Many students at the University of
Wisconsin-Parkside don't appreciate or feel
the need of the campus police.
A recent survey completed among stu-
dents and faculty at UW-Parkside found more
than half were satisfied with the University
Police. However,
in
general, the students' rat-
ings were lower than ratings of faculty and
staff.
A large portion of students, 57%, have
never contacted the University Police for
- assistance. Students who have had interac-
tions with the police were less satisfied with
responding officers
services than were
faculty i'nd staff. Most students have only
contacted the police when they had vehicle-
related problems.
The students also think that some of the
issues that campus police deal with are not of
great importance. Students rated assaults and
battery, domestic violence, drug and liquor
violations, and loud parties as less important
concerns for police than did faculty and staff.
A
few
students living on campus gave
their opinions of the University Police. Kate
Janoska said, "I feel like I'm in jail. The
police should only be called in to handle cer-
tain emergency situations." -
Carrie Card, also a dissatisfied student
.added, "They're too eager to give out tickets
to everyone."
Linda Muftler thinks that the police
should fmd better ways to spend their time.
She said, "I-constantly see the police circling
the Ranger Hall parking lot just looking for
cars to ticket.
I'm
sure there are better things
they could be doing with their time."
Robert Deane, head of the University
Police Department, responded by saying, "I
think that tbe students are misinformed. We
patrol the halls to make sure there are no fires
or problems. We patrol the parking lots to
.lllake sure people aren't taking the student's
parking spots.
Thi;
is all part of our job. I
would think that the students would feel bet-
ter know that we're doing our job.
II
Overall, the students at the University of
WIsconsin-Parkside don't see the need for the
police. Many think that the police should not
be walking the residence halls or circling the
parking lots. Some also think that the police
arejust looking to get students in trouble. At
any rate, the University Police seem to be fac-
ing challenges with regard to trust and confi-
dence.that students have in them.

newly formed, this was their second pub-
lic appearance. They are available for
any occasion and do not charge a fee.

"Which would cap instructional costs of
undergraduate tuition at 33% for resi-
dents, and 120% for non-residents, and
help protect the affordability and accessi-
bility of higher education." Right now,
the tuition for residents is 35,8% and
increasing. The UC is lobbying to bring
it, and keep it, down to 33%.

purpose is to support those in nee.d

person feel a loss in their life. It

Zac Pawlowski, Pro-Tempore,said
that there is a lack of communication on
campus. To help this, he proposedthat a
board be displayed nearthe Womyn's

[Parks ide] is a home to most of us...a
community," she said. This is where
many people spend the largest part
of their days.
She also said that when students
are experiencing grief, it becomes so
overwhelming that they do poorly on
exams, have trouble coping with life
and school, and miss or drop out of
classes. By forming this group for
the students of UWP, the problem
can be addressed before things go
too far downhill.
There are many referral sources
available through the group. The
Internet has hundreds of resources
which Carol Lee Saffioti-Hughes '
khows from her experience of losing
her daughter last year.
"It
helps to
get together with other people who
have had similar experiences." The
regularity of the group will depend on
what people want and need.

Parkside awarded $400,000 to assist
urban communities
by
Rebecca Vankervoorde
The University of Wisconsin-
Parksidewill receive a $400,000 grant
form the FederalDepartment of Housing
and Urban Development. Parkside will
be working to revitalize two targeted
urban areas. The Lincoln Neighborhood
in Kenoshaand the West Sixth Street
area in Racine were the areas chosen.
Both of thesecommunities exist in sub-
standardconditions, including poor
housing, anda high population of low-
income families with inadequateeduca-
tions and work skills.
The goals of this project areto
help residentsdevelop leadership skills,
increase home ownership, establish new
businesses,and to restore pride in their
community.
Esther Letven, assistant vice
chancellor for Extended Services and
Sociology ProfessorAnne Stathamwere
involved in writing the grant proposal,
they will serve asco-directors of thepro-
ject.
The three year project will ben-
efit the depressed neighborhoods aswell
as the university community, whose
SIU-
dents will receive real-life experiences
as
volunteer mentors, according to Letven.
"This is really good for our
SIU-
dents. This is an opportunity for stu-
dents educated at UW-Parkside to apply
their learning to the community in which
they live," Letven said. "We're trying
to bring the resourcesof the university
to
the needsof the community. This isnot
something the university is
doing
to the
community, but we're working
with
the
community."
Parkside was one of 25 colleges
I
and universities awarded grants. There
were 112 institutions that applied this
year.

are
being
submitted
to
the
State
of
Wisconsin
in
order
to
fit
the
building
plan
into
the
amount
of
money
allo-
cated
for
the
project.
"The
State
building
com-
mission
took
the
project
and
said.
'We
will
give
you
$4.6
million
for
Phase
1
of
the
project.'
But
up
to
that
point,
the
architects
were
working
on
a premise
for
a
$9
million
building,"
said
Steve
McLaughlin,
dean
of
students.
"When
a project
like
this
is cut
down
the
middle,
you
have
to
go
back
and
revise
the
project
to
fit
within
the
$4.6
million
limit.
The
University's
plan
is
to
go
back
(to
the
state)
and
request
the
other
half
of
the
money
to
finish
the
project
as
originally
intended,"
said
McLaughlin.
"It
provides
challenges
to
get
the
functional
space
you
need
within
that
set
dollar
amount.
Also,
the
longer
you
delay,
the
more
costly
it
gets
- construction
costs
go
up
as
inflation
does."
The
current
project
is
in
the
hands
of
the
architect,
Brian
Thom
of
Fisher,
Fisher
and
Theis-
a firm
in
the

be
submitting
a

to

(DFD)
within
the

In
the
project's
final
review,
it
will
be
studied
by
DFD
personnel
and
will
then
go
to
the
State
build-
ing
commission
for
approval.
According
to
William
Streeter,
assistant
chancel-
lor
of
administrative
and
fiscal
affairs,
the
original
program
statement
for
the
project
went
forward
in
1992,
to
be
funded
in
the
1993-95
biennium.
"We
didn't
get
the
project
that
biennium,
but
the
...
chancellor
at
the
time,
Sheila
Kaplan,
was
able
to
United

ESTABLISHED
1972
get
a commitment
of
$100,000
for
planning
money.
We
then
submitted
the
total
project
for
the
1995-97
biennium,"
said
Streeter.
Streeter
said
that
when
the
State
cut
the
original
project
in
half
last
year,
it
was
divided
into
two
phas-
es.
"What
we're
working
on
right
now
are
the-detailed
plans
for
Phase
1,
and
we're
also
going
forward
to
try
to
secure
funds
for
Phase
2,"
said
Streeter.
"We
want
to
complete
the
structure
with
a field
house
for
the
1997-99
biennium."

Cramped
Space Brings
Headaches
-Mark
Hahn
Staff
Writer
Ever
since
becoming
ath-
letic
director
at
UW-
Parkside,
Linda
Draft
has
been
struggling
with
cramped
space
and
a lot
of
headaches.
"This
campus
outgrew
the
PE
Building
the
day
it
opened,"
commented
Draft.
"We've
been
asking
for
twenty
years
for
an
addi-
tion,
and
its
extremely
frustrating
for
both
the
stu-
dents
and
staff
because
there
just
isn't
enough
space
for
everybody
who
wants
to
be
active.
"The
day
in
our
building
starts
at
6
a.m.
when
the
track
teams
starts
practice,
and
doesn't
conclude
until
12-1
a.m.
when
the
baseball
and
softball
teams
finish
practicing,"
said
Draft.
Draft
said
members
of
Ranger
sports
teams
at
the
university
aren't
the
only
ones
hit
hard
by
cramped
space.
"Its

hard
when

of
intramural
teams
and
we
have
only
two
nights
a week
for
them
to

here,"
explained
Draft.
"At
the
same
time,
we
get
requests
for
other
classes,
and
we
don't
have
the
space
to

I think
that senators

It
is my beliefthat
the office
of Vice President
is where
I could
get the sen-
ate moving
in the direction
of helping
the most
amount
of students
possible.
The
senate
has an obligation
to
the students
to represent
them
to the best of their
