The report, "Planning port had · declined roughly by Debbie ·Kellom the Future, " which is expected to be approved in December, could have far~reaching effects on student and faculty life in the System into the next century. The Regents Study Group on the Future of the UW System began considering a plan "to ensure the continued quality of education in the UW System" in Januarr. of this year and has met each month since. ' ' The group, which is composed of all 17 regents, Katherine Lyall, the UW System executive vice-president, former UWChancellor Irving Shain and UW-Stout Chancellor Robert Swanson, ~ been considering plans ranging from tuition in. creases, enrollment caps and higher admission standards to redefining campus missions. A goal for higher minority recruitment of both students and faculty is includ~, as well as plans • for better system internal management.

The Future Study Committee claims that the UW System now faces a funding gap of $600 per student for instructional support when compared to other university systems. "We were responding to a number of factors," regent Ruth Clusen said in an interview last week. "The major ones we found · ourselves responding to crisis after · crisi&. We found that we had no longrange plan." Clusen said another. r-eason which spurred the fc:»rmation ofthe Future Study Group was a recommendation from a state legislative committee whose members comprised the top leaders of the assembly and the senate. That committee, which was headed by assembly speaker Thomas Loftus (D-Sun Prairie), analyzed the UW System and recommended that the regents form a long-range plan. Clusen said the regents hadn't looked at System policies for "some time" and said she felt " that studying these , issues is essential to ensure that we have a quality educational system through the rest of the century. A major question was how do we maintain quality while we are falling behind financially?" The regents "Planning . the Future" report predicts that v "with the im~lementati?n of the recommendations of this study, the University of .wi~consin Systern will be a reVItalized and reshaped system."

The $2 million addition will stand two stories tall, be attached to the back of the Science Building and run approximately from the loading dock area to the end of the building towards the College of Profesisonal Studies Building. Mary Williams, coordinator of facilities planning at UWSP, says that the project is moving along well at this point, as architects and engineers draw up final plans. Due to the inhospitable climactic conditions of Stevens Point in the winter, however, construction must be delayed until the spring. Funding has been provided in large part by money set aside for UWSP in the state's 1985-37 biennial capital budget. This will cover much of the construetion costs, along with building maintenance and remodeling to older sections of the Science Building. In addition, private comparues--involved in the Paper Science Foundation have ·given grants totaling $60,000. Williams explains that the paper companies "want quality, well-trained Student· Senate votes for additional sized swimming pool with an adjacent warm water instructional pool, is just one part of the plan to remodel the Health, Physical Education, Recreation A 27-1 Student-Senate vote on and Athletic Building.

Providing financial support for institutions like UWSP is one way to assure a steady supply of talented graduates. Ten thousand dollars of the $60,000 grant was from a single source, North Central Piema, the Paper Industry Management Association. ).'he remaining $50,000 was raised through a fund drive for the future paper science computer lab. In this case, many small gifts were received from a large number of paper companies. Speaking of the time ..period for construction, paper science department chairman Larry Graham remarks: "It will be a long process. We're looking at 5-10 years to fully eqUip the facility." This substantial time investment is balanced by the longterm benefits that the addition should provide. According to Professor Graham, UWSP already holds a national reputation in paper science. New facilities would address the area in which Point is still lagging behind. "We have a very strong faculty and student community",'' Graham 'comments, "but facilities have been less adequate than those of other universities. The new facilities will bring us closer in line to the other paper programs in the country." fee Student has , be. .Government gun to circulate a petition among students in support of the fee assessment which will be presented along with the · plan at the Regents meeting in December. The success or failure of the petition on campus should be an accurate indicator of the students' willingness to ·pay the additional fee. John Munson, who heads the School of HPERA, calls the student senators' decision to endor.se a plan of studentbacked funding as "one of the biggest decisions their group has made in years." • I Page 2 ._____EDITOR') D€)~---:------:------'-1 t The · best-laid pla.ns. • • The· war in Nicaragua took on .a local accent recent;Iy with the capture of Eugene Hasenfus of Marinette, Wisconsin, who i was abducted· by Nicaraguan government troops while flying - arms to the U.S.-backed Contra rebels. / ' ' By winning Congressional approyal of $100 million in aid .for the contras, President Reagan will step up military pressure on Nicaragua's Sandanista government. But new aid won't be enough to make the Sandanistas cry uncle-it's only the beginning-who knows what Ron will ask for next? Ironically, while Hasenfus was smuggling arms, by his own admission, only for the money, he became involved in the Nicaraguan conflict to a degree that he neither expected rior wanted. Through his own actions, Hasenfus placed himself ·in -a vul- · nerable position, which left him susceptible to being drawn into a sit1,1ation that he obviously wanted no real part of. When a nation places itself in a position as precarious as our current situation concerning Nicaragua, it risks the possibility of being drawn in even further. The United States has inade a commitment to the Nicaraguan contras in providing $100 million of support this year in their fight to seize power. What if our current efforts are not enough? What if future conditions · or events necessitate the involvement of U.S~ tr~ps? . $100 million won't begin to buy a contra victocy. Hasenfus now faces almost certain conviction in a Nicaraguan people's tribunal and the possibility of a 30-year prison sentence as a consequence of his actions. • ~ A frightening analogy can be drawn between Hasenfus' pre- sent situation and the current actions of the United States in Central America. Like Hasenfus, the United States currently has no intention of taking a direct role in the Nicaraguan war, · _ going only so far as to arm and supply the contra rebels. However, like Hasenfus, unforseen circumstances could conceivably draw the United States deeper into the Nicaraguan war than has been anticipated.-And as in Hasenfus' case, the consequences of our getting involved over our heads in Nicaragua ~ could be ~strous. -· These are questions that Congress should not have to consid-· ·. er in the future. The United States should abandon its current futile course of action in Nicaragua and consider diplomacynot the risk of another Vietnam. . It is difficult to imagine that a scant 30 years after placing ourselves on the path toward an eventual all-out commitment to a war in Southeast Asia, our present actions in Central America seem to be validating the cliche that history repeats · itself. ~en the original commitment was made to become involved in Southeast Asia in the mid;.1950's, our leaders never anticipated that our involvement would eventually lead · to a full pledge to a losing cause that would cost over 50,000 American lives and hundreds of billions of dollars. · Likewise, policymakers who currently conduct foreign policy toward Nicaragua have no immediate plans of going beyond funding and supplying the contra rebels. However, the potential for unforseen circumstances necessitating that the U.S. ·take a more direct role in Nicaragua are still possible. Increa~ ing evidence pointing to continuing covert CIA involvement in · the war make that possibility all the more likely. CpoiNTE:R . ~fiFF--,.-.1 Editor: Debbie C.

While most experts concede that this package is not enough to expect a victory for the Contras, the measure passed both houses of congress twice. H a victory for the l'IJicaraguan .freedom fighters is not the real goal, what prompted House Democrats and Senate and administration Republicans to authorize the funding? We must remember that the u.s: did not oppose the Sandanista rise to power nor their efforts to consolidate their government. The U.S. negotiated the resignations of Somoza and Urcuyo during the Nicaraguan civil war. With our help, the Sandanistas received more loans from the International Development ·Bank in two years than the Somoza government had in any decade. The U.S. provided $75 million in supplemental aid to assist the Sandanistas in rebuilding their nation.

Could not, wishes. To quote former U.N. Ambassador Jean Kirkpatrick, " ...the list of human rights cannot be indefinitely lengthened like a shopping list in a global supermarket." Human rights are the prerequisites to other social and economic goods. Relying on restraint in the use of power, these rights include free speech, press, religion, freedom of assembly and from arbitrary arrest and the right to due process. On the other hand, the level of 'industrialization, the rate of economic growth and the literacy level of a nation's people are wishes and goals that follow the prerequisites. In the years since the Sandanistas rise to power, the junta led by Ortega has extended and consilidated power following a pattern of "coup d' etat by installments" not unlike Konrad Heiden's description of the Nazi seizure of total power in German Society. They make "preventative arrests" of people suspected not to sympathize with them. The media, not directly controlled by the Sandanistas, must submit all stories for prior censorship. Opposition leaders are not allow¢ to leave then, this aid have a positive benefit in protecting the human rights and the very lives of the people living in the nations that border Nicaragua?

Reporter The Student Government Association sponsored a roundtable discussion on current student issues October 30, from 45:30 p.m. in the UC Mitchell Room. John Schinian, the first student member of the UW-8ystem Board of Regents, and Bryce Tolefree, United Council President, ~ed the discussion. '. NEW)~-------'1 / For eXample, over the last five year8, the number 6f students has increased by 17 per cent; the budget, however, has decreased by nine per cent. Schinian said that this accumulated loss is already having serious effects, and in the long run, the · University System won't be able to recover no matter how much money is pumped into it. "We can't put off trying to solve it any longer," stated Schinian. Strategies are very important right now and each chancellor has been asked to come up with the specific needs assessment on how their share of the $88 million will be spent. If the state provides only a portion of . the $88 million, a recently passed resolution would not allow tuition to be raised any higher than to the midpoint of the big ten. . Schinian opened the discus-sion by speaking of the 1987-39 biennial budget. The budget, which is comprised of approximately three billion dollars, will cover all 26 campuses for the next two years.

Well, since I too want to be hip, I'm goi.J)g to scoop them all. We may not have "the next big thing" here in Wisconsin, but us "cheese-heads" have something to be proud of. Oh, music scenes in Wisconsin? You must be talking about Madison and Milwaukee, right? Wrong. · People are creating and defining their own worlds of rock'n'roll in northwest, central and northeast Wisconsin. And, the good editors willing, I'll .examine what's happening in these places. The Eau Claire music scene has the essential elements - needed for a local music scene: bands, promotion companies, media, and places to play. The Eau Claire band Tatters has been around for five years, and continues to be one of the mainstays of this scene. The band is composed of Jeff Johnson and Shane McMahon on guitars, Dale Gleboff on bass, and Pat Farnand on drums. Tatters' first vinyl appear- ance was three years ago with the single "Gone to Stay." That song was the result of winning the Miller High Life "Rock to Riches" contest. "Gone to Stay" received airplay in Europe and the U.S. and since then they have appeared on a compilation album, and have released· a cassette. Tatters plays stripped-down rock'n'roll that is influenced by Tom Petty and Lou Reed. This band is spontaneous live.

Officers follow a set procedure to deal with vandalism. Every person determined responsible for the action is referred to Student Conduct. About petty theft procedure, Burling remarks, "If we have a series of thefts, that depends on the victim. The victim always has the right to file charges with the local authorities if they so choose." However, civil-charges of this sort are filed very rarely, partly because petty theft offenders are so hard to catch. In many cases, the incidents happen after dark with no witnesses. Or people will leave their rooms open and their belongings vulnerable. "The · residence halls are so : open," Burling says, "that you always have people walking around. They don't 'look out of place. We've got to educate the students to keep their areas secure when they're not around, even for a few minutes. It only takes a couple of seconds for a person to walk into a room and walk off with a radio or cash." '<'' Even with these problems, Burling still considers UWSP a relatively safe campus. But he stresses preventative action. Burling warns students to walk in groups, avoid the dark areas on campus, and avoid Schmeeckle Reserve at night: Throw a party - any partyl Then get on the Domino's Pizza Party Line and start ordering! "There's always a possibility for an assault to occur," Burling maintains. "Today I could say it's safe and tomorrow there could be a serious assault." f Recently, Protective Services has been involved in a series of meetings with other campus representatives to develop a set procedure to deal with sexual _ assaults on campus. Burling reports some progress in ~he area: . "We~e trying to identify one central · location where people can go and get an acccurate figure on how many assaults have oceurred within the community and campus. We've -set that to be the Stevens Point Police Department, because they are the law enforcement agency for the university. We will remain a reporting agency." · There has been some disagreement during the committee procedings over the possibilities of a mandatory call-in of .the Stevens Point Police Force for an incident of.,!ape. Burling believes the vic~im should decide if outside police forces ar& used: ·~I don't want to infringe on any victim's rights. If the victim wants to see them involved, then by all means I'd like to see the local authorities more involved. But if the victim is quite adamant in not wanting to report it to the police, then I think we have to respect that decision." Our drivers carry less than $20.00.

Apartments run between $600 and $750 a semester, usually including heat and hot water, and houses rent anywhere from $400 to $800 a semsester, with or without utilities. While room costs in the' dorms are usually cheaper than a house or apartment, food is usually leSs expensive, and can save students two or three hundred dollars a semester. ·- - Still, most students move off campus for the obvious comforts--larger rooms, living space, home food, and most of all, freedom. Either way~ offcampus housing has considerable benefits over the halls. Most students also find few problems with their houses, despite the common stereotypes of fanged landlords sucking tenants dry and tenants taking sledgehammers to their homes. Which isn't to say problems don't occur. They do. That's what this is about. / even if it is your girlfriends grandmother you're rentirig from. Problems have been known to occur between grandmothers and grandchildren. Most landlords require written leases anyWay. Since it is the landlord who ' writes the lease, it generally favor~ the lan_dlor~. Thi_s isn't saymg that m fme prmt the -lease will say "the tenants soul, body, and collection of Mel Tourme records are mine hereforever," but it is an extremely ' good idea to read your lease thoroughly-especially since a lease cannot be broken unless there are extremely extenuating circumstances (and even then, maybe not). ' H you're suspicious of your landlord it is best to carefully look at the property and find out past rental history. This includes questioning former tenants and asking the landlord for past rental records. Actually, you should carefully look at the property anyWay and, this . is the second most important part of renting and not getting screwed while you do it, fill out a detaued inspection checklist (i.e. beds-mi8sing a leg, bathtub-odd color of green, living room-smells like geritol, etc... ) Logically enough, this prevents the landlord from accusing you of putting that watermelon sized hole in the refrigerator. ' ' The ea8iest and most effective solution to most problems is the lease-provided you've got one and ,Jt's thorough enough.

(Also, landlords are not allowed to subtract rent payments from the deposit, provided they have made reasonable efforts to get the rent. The landlord has 21 days after your lease ·expires to return the deposit. The tenant has 7 days after renting to inspect and 1eport any damages.) Landlord rights--yes, they have a few, like when they' can inspect.

These tournaments serve as a prelude to the open bow deer season. Area hunters report success as bucks enter the rut. Successful deer hunters begin scouting early for opening. weekend bucks. - by Tim Albers Staff Reporter Tltis past weekend I scouted for the gQn deer season scheduled for November 22-30. Things look good but could be better. On Saturday I, drove to the old stomping grounds. I wanted to drive those roads that wind through the section of 181\d we hunt, but couldn't. The DNR converted the majority of those roads to Hunter Walkin~ Trails. The gun deer season this year will be different.. We will have to walk in where we used to drive. This isn't too much trouble for those of us who are young and in good .shape tmt there are a few hunters in our crew who are neither young nor in good shape anymore. Our first night in the shack will also be different. Usually we sit around shooting the bull until midnight. This year, I think we will have to sit down and replan the majority of our old drives. Who knows, this might work better for us. When I finally got out of the truck on Saturday, I went to where the shack will be. I stomped through the area for a few hours, never more than a half mile from the truck. I saw a few deer and some sign but not as much sign as in previous years. I chose fol!I" possible places to stand on opening morning. All four have trail crossings, a stand of pines, and a little swamp near them. Two of these, however, are situated so that I will probably have to shoot off-handed. I'll have to go to the range and get reacquainted with that process. When I was satisfied with my walk, I got back into my truck and started home. But instead of going directly home, I took a few back roads with the hope that I could get a shot with my bow. While driving, a doe crossed the road in front of me. She didn't seem nervous so I stopped and started stalking her. Bui about 50 yards from her, I noticed that something else was stalking her. A sixpoint buck. Now I really settled down and tried my stalking techniques. r got about 15 yards away from him. But because I was below him ori tbe hill, I thought he was 25 yards away. I was going to try getting closer, but he looked netvous. I decided to try a shot. My arrow went over his back directly over the kill area. That six-point buck took off like he was on fire. For the next half hour to 45 minutes I tried to find my arrow, but never did. Good luck to all and don't forget to be careful.

Adults usually weigh 9-12 pounds, but appear much larger due to their thick, full coat of fur. The 15 inch tail is bushy, almost cylindrical in shape, and characteristically is tipped with white. A long snout, large, erect ears, and yellow eyes with narrow pupils give the fox an appearance which has undoubtedly contributed to its reputation for cunning and craftiness. Red foxes vary in color from de-e p, russet red to sandy blonde. 'Ole legs, feet, and back of the ears are usually black. Underparts such as the chin, throat, and belly are white. Black, silver, cross, and other color phases _occasionally appear in Wisconsin red foxes. Silver foxes have black hair tipped with white. Cross foxes bear a dark brown strip that extends from the head down the center of the back, and is transected by another strip which reaches from -shoulder to shoulder. One or more pups in a litter may exhibit a particular plmse, or several color phases may appear'in the same litter. Food Red foxes eat a variety of foods, but show a preference for small and mid-sized manuna1s such a~ mice and cottontails. Plants and insects are often eaten during spring and summer. Depending upon the time of year, up to 72% of the total volume of a fox's diet is composed of cottontail rabbits, mak.l ing them the single most ilpportant food item of Wisconsin foxes. Red foxes also consume · 1s, songb"1rds , shrews, sqUirre pheasants, ducks, grasshoppers, garbage, carrion, fruit, grass, grain, and other items. Well developed senses of sight, smell, and hearing make the red fox an effici'ent predator. Scientific evidence indicates that a red fox can locate a rustling sound within 1 degree of its true location, and can hear a mouse squeal at 150 feet. A variety of hunting styles are used to capture different types of prey. When hunting mice, foxes stalk within pouncing distance, lunge 2-6 feet, and try to pin their quarry with their front - feet. If its prey escapes, the fox rears up on its hind legs, turns / in all directions searching for the mouse, and makes another pounce if the mouse is spotted. Ground nesting birds su~h as pheasants are occasionally killed by hun~g foxes. Rabbits are generally stalked, then run down in a high speed chase. Foxes may kill more than they can eat at the moment. Less preferred foods are then cached under loose dirt, leaves, or snow for future use. Foxes often mark their cache sites by urinating on a nearby object. By interpreting various combinations of food and urine scents of cache sites, foxes can avoid investigating -unproductive spots, thereby increasing their foraging efficiency. Current Status In Wisconsin Red foxes are most abundant in southern, central, and western Wisconsin. The statewide - · w·1sconsm. · The DNR estima t es that Despite common perception, the red fox is a b/undant m the Wisconsin population exceeds 60,000. Hunters and trappers prize the quality fur of the fox. population is currently stable at approximately 61,000 red foxes. Throughout southern Wisconsin, however, competition from expanding coyote populations may be causing a slight decline in fox numbers. Management Biological models are used to simulate the effects of different birth, death, and dispersal rates in red fox populations. Data- collected from southern Wisconsin foxes indicated that fox num- ~ bers in this state reach stability when harvests approach 55% of the fall population. Wisconsin's current management goal is to harvest approximately 27,000 red foxes per year (44% of the statewide population) through 1993. Fox harvests in Wisconsin are controlled by setting the season length and opening date to halance recreational demands with the resources' capabilities. The fox season north of state Highway 64 opens two weeks earlier than in the southern zone, because furs become prime at an ' earlier date, and less harvest pressure is exerted on fox populations in northern Wisconsin. Average pelt values can affect statewide fox harvests, and are taken into consideration when seasons are set. Information from winter track counts, annual mammal observations, hunter/trapper surveys, and fur buyer questionnaires are used to monitor changes in red fox - abundance as well as harvest effort. Recreational opportunities other than hunting and trapping are often a neglected subject when "game" animals such as the fox are considered. Wi.Sconsin's many wildlife areas offer a chance for photographers and nature lovers to observe red foxes in the wild. Once a den is located (use binoculars to search hillsides for a mound of fresh dirt at the den. entrance), pups can often be seen during the evening hours of spring or early summer. Care should be taken to avoid disturbing fox families during the latter rearing period. Young animals should never be handled or taken from the wild. · Foxes can often be brought into camera range with a commercia} predator call (and a bit of practice). Tracking red foxes after a light snowfall provides a better knowledge of fox habits, as well as a chance for exercise when most people are warming themselves near the fireside. Look for fox trails near gravel roads .- paths , fencerows, or tree- lines. fox trails usually consist of a nearly straight alignme_nt of evenly spaced tracks 6-8 inches apart. _ A fox track is the size of a small dog's (about 1 1/2-2 inches long), but narrower. The 4 toe pads of a fox are smaller than that of a dog, and thick hair between the toes and foot pad may be apparent . Making daydream believers by TIIii Albers Staff Reporter I understand how some of you hunters and fishermen feel about having to go to classes and having to study. I have that same -conflict of interest. I think about hunting and fishing all the time but can't get ou.t nearly as much as I'd like. Instead, I've developed a sort of therapy. It's called daydreaming. My thoughts turn to long walks through the woods in September, October, November, (hell, let's face it, all year long.) Just about any time I can escape to the outdoors is memorable. We have all had days when our game bags or stringers haven't -been as full as we had hoped. One thing I have no- ticed, however, is that if you let your mind wander you can imagine similarities between those gameless days and days on campus. If you make some comparisons, you might notice wildlife of the two-legged kind. The best way to observe it is to just sit, relax, and watch.

Although the Pointer offense was largely responsible for keeping UWSP within striking distance after~a slow early-season start, the Point~r defense has since established itself as a reliable -force while helping to extend its current win streak to six·games. "Our defense rose to the next level of play," said Pointer Coach D. J. LeRoy. "We turned the ball over six times, but our defense came out ready to play each time." The Pointer defense, which limited Platteville (2-5, 4-5} to just five1 yards rushing, used sterling i)erfonnances from defensive end Craig Ewald, whose tackle in the end zone for a safety gave UWSP a 12-10 edge in the third quarter, and defen- · sive back Tom Finco, who regiStered five of the Pointers' six sacks.

Harriers tamed at conference meet by Kent Walstrom Sports Editor Coach Len Hill's women's cross country team finished fourth at the WWIAC conference meet held in Eau Claire last weekend. UW-Oshkosh, which fell to the Pointers in a dual meet last week in Stevens Point, won the team title by edging runner-up UW-La Crosse. Host Eau Claire wound up third, followed by UWSP, UWWhitewater, UW-River Falls, UW.Stout, and UW.Superior. La Crosse's Sheri Winter finished atop the field of runners while registering a time of 18:04. Brenda Bergum took second in 18"': 34, and Oshkosh's Tiffany Fox claimed third (18:36). Stevens Point's top entry came from 16th place finisher Jenny Schoch (19:19). Teammates Amy Cyr (19:2:)), Kris Helein (19:26), Maureen Seidl (2Q.: 10) and Cheryl Cynor (20:24) also made significant contributions for UWSP. "I was real pleased with the performance of this young team," said Hill, whose team travels to Rock Island, Illinois, for the NCAA Midwest Regional Meet Nov. 17. "They went out hard and were able to hold on for a strong finish." "Jenny (Schoch) moved up to be our number one runner in this meet," Hill added. "She has been a consistent runner all season and is getting faster and stronger each week. She · did a super job as a freshman in her first collegia~e· conference meet." Saturday's ~eet at ' Eau Claire also served as the NAIA District 14 Meet. Pointers Jenny Schoch, Amy Cyr, and Kris Helein, by virtue of tHeir perfor~ mances, earned NAIA District 14 Honorable Mention status.
