UWSP students will be able to pick up their free copy of U. in February, March and April near the areas where the Pointer is normally distrjbuted.

U. has received start-up funds from Grand American, Inc., a real-estate development and restaurant company.. Collegiate Network expects advertisers to provide ongoing support. The new tabloid will provide advertisers an opportunity that's not really available elsewhere, says Sublette. Most campus papers can't offer advertisers color on every page. And many giveaway student magazines are never even read-" you see them stacked in boxes and boxes in campus hallways," Sublette says. "That's money wasted."

According to a Milwaukee Journallisting of Schmoldt's findings on June 22, 1986, the UW System was storing more than 137 tons of toxic chemical waste, and in the process risking governmental fines of $3 million a day. Schmoldt said the university's procedures concerning h8zardous waste were "below current standards established by law," and that their practice did "endanger students, faculty and staff, as well as the general public."

I think students need a reason to write before they produce their best work." is with this in mind that came up with an idea for a university scientific journal. The premier issue of SCIENTIFIC WISCONSIN can be pur- € chased both at the Acadelnic Achievement Center in the basement of the LRC and at the University Center book store for $3.95. SCIENTIFIC WISCONSIN features scientific articles written by UWSP graduate and undergraduate students with the emphasis being on undergraduate work. In the first issue were published a wide· range of articles from "Clutch Size Variance in Snow Geese" to "The Heat of Combustion of Aspirin." Teaming up to coordinate the project with Post is Dr. Richard Behm' of the English depart· ment. He has extensive experience in both publishing and editing. Behm is from the same school of thought that suggests that students are more motivated to write for an audience other than simply a professor. "SCIENTIFIC WISCONSIN is a good way to encourage students to write and see their work published," says Behm~ He also says the journal provides students thinking about attending graduate school with an excellent opportunity to publish their scientific writing. Both Behm and Post have been actively encouraging professors to submit quality samples of student scientific writing. They are quick to point out, however, that students are welcome to submit articles on their own initiative to the Academic Achievement Center, 108 LRC. Manuscripts are reviewed twice each year, in January and' May. Deadlines for submissions · are January 1 and May 1. Any papers not accepted for publication will be returned to the course instructor or to students who provide a self-addreSsed, stamped envelope with their manuscripts. How do students know when their article is right for SCIENTIFIC WISCONSIN?

Two reasons .for this is the large number of dorm residents and the ease in which they can get involved in activities. Sometimes, however, it is easy to forget that there are ·a whole group of students out there who are neither located on the. campus nor have an easy time get- in-v.olvement---!...-----~ ting involved. These people are the commuter students.. For the past year Eileen Kelz of the Student Development Area has been working on the commuter issue and has made the following observations. First of all, commuters are not as involved on campus as people who live in the residence halls. Secondly, many commuters don't feel as comfortable or at home on campus as the residence hall people do. As a result of this, commuters don't particiJ)ate as much in student {spo~, activities, academics, etc.), form ·links to residence hall students, and help advocate the needs of students living off campus. Any commuters who wish to know more about the Campus Commuters Organization are encouraged to attend the organ- activities and organizations. Also,· the campus retains fewer commute~ than residence hall people. This year several things have been done to combat this problem. Last s\unmer during the orientation there .were special sessions for the commuters and in the fall orientation there was a bifZ push for commuter involvement. The reason for these special orientation sessions, according to Kelz, is to get the commuters knowlegeable about the canipus and to have them meet people. This gives them a better step into things.

The fees may not be static for long as UWSP's enrollment is cut.

The tvriterS' niche: University Writers I by SUSIHl K. Ferk •-• th P< inte Specuu. to e 0 r Are you interested in writing? Do you find yourself jotting ideas in a notebook or writing a story for fun? Do you want to write poetry like Robert Frost , or explain the mysteries of the universe in a science journal? These are the kinds of ideas encountered in University Writers. U-Writers is an informal group of students who get together to run an · organiZation · and learn about writing. Student . writers discuss their work in . peer workshops, organize readings by published authors, and sponsors the Rites of Writing in the spring. Membership is open to all students interested in writing. We especially like to meet new writers, who have the most gain from our activities. However, our group has writers at all levels and even some published authors. Members are interest- ed ill many different types of writing, such as poetry, essays, short stories, fiction and non-fietion, novels and song lyrics. M~tings are usually hi-weekly and are held in the Academic Achievement Center (AAC) located in the basement of the LRC. The AAC provides us with many valuable resources: books, handouts, magazines, newsletters and fellow writers who encourage and help us with our writing. For writers interested in getting their work published, UWriters puts together an annual ' publication called "J;larney Str~t," available for $2.00 at the AAC. Material for the next edition will be accepted in November. University Writers is also a member 'of the Associated Writing Programs, which provides students-grads and undergrads-with a job listing, placement service, catalog of college writing programs, and a newsletter which lists grants to ap- gro~ ply for and places to submit work. Our upcoming events include a reading by Norbert Blei on Oct. 22. ~- Blei is a published author who lives in Door County and makes his living from his writing. A reading of his work will be held in the Communications Room of the . University Center at 7:30 p.m. Mr. Blei will also hold a workshop at 1 p.m. in the AAC, and will be autographing books at Book World, 1136 Main St. from 45:30. . Tentative plans f~ ;future · meetings include a presentation by Richard Behm on getting. published, an open reading where students can read their own work or the work of other authors, and a presentation on applying for grants and attending workshops. The next meeting will be Wednesday, Oct. 28, 4 p.rn. in the AAC.

What is · the purpose of the WRC? The purpose of the WRC is to make information available about resources, everyday events, and current events of women with the intent of improving women's concept of themselves and strengthening their place in society. Although most of us are feminists, the WRC is not just for women who share our views or just for students, but for the entire community, including men. Weencourage people to read the literature and books from our library that interest them, give us ideas of what they'd like to see down here, or just talk to us about anyijlirlg that interests th~ Do you think some people may have misconceptioiiS about tbeWRC? Yes. People have told me that the WRC is; ''Just a lesbian social club," because they . apparently do not understand the motivations of the women . who work here, our belief in equality in the home and in the workplace. We do not judge the people who come in here and we do not want anyone else to judge the people who come in here. Not just one type of woman C!Omes down here; we have single women, divorced or widowed·women, battered women, mothers, and sexual assault victims. The age range is from 16 to 60. I think the misconception comes in part from our low prome on campus. The Women's ~urce Center is not as yvelllmown as many other organizationa or groups on campus. I think that attitude will change · when more people start visiting the Center to see what we have to offer and to talk to the women who come here. FREE UG!...

IN CONCERT FORMER LEAD SINGER OF BAD BOY FRIDAY OCTOBER 1.6 th 9p.m. IN THE ENCORE ~~~,,...:.:, Pointer Page 9 $1.50 w/ID UC From P·! How is the $377,000 budgeted for annually-funded organizations? Organizations submit annual budgets in January and February for the following academic year. Generally, these budgets are the ideal of the organization, so the Financial Commit- · tee tries to decipher what is needed over what is wanted. Non-monetary benefits are a major concern. "We have to ask how a student is benefited by allocatedmoney and how many students are benefited." Travel is a real problem in this area. Student Activities does not have the funding to reimburse many travel expenses for organizations, They advocate attendance at conferences if, and only if, the representatives of the group are 'bringing back valuable information or experience to their _group. "We can't send someone to a conference for their own personal gain. We can't pay for lodging at a luxury hotel when there's a budget motel next door. It all goes back to the group's purpose statement." With all these rules and cOntrol, why does an organization have to earn revenue besides? "Fund-raising doesn't help us, it helps the organizations. We can't give an organization everything they ask for to fulfill their purpose in their constitution. Of course, we don't want the organization spending 80 percent of their time fund-raising. That would defeat the purpose of the organization. We do believe, however, that the members have to show a commitment to what they're doing, whether that means selling popcorn or paying me~bership dues. Hopefully, the group will find a balance between earning revenue and fun ...-· Student Activities helps organizations by publishing lists of possible fund-raising events~ from popcorn to Christmas wreaths. "Revenue should be earned by methods that ·enhance the group's purpose. Selling M&M's and popcorn should be a last resort if there are other possibilities more related to the organization." What if they don't earn their revenue? ·"They don't spend as much. It's pretty simple." · As a writer for the Pointer, I . wanted to know why I couldn't get paid for the few hours I spend each week writing. "We look at how you benefit by writing for the Pointer, the experience you get from that. If we pay you for your efforts, the money will have to be taken from something else. You may earn money from the Pointer, but you'll lose it somewhere else." That was good enough for me. What if they cut expenses by only publishing the Pointer biweekly, just because I wanted some personal benefit? Despite the time it takes to write for the Pointer, I'd rather keep the opportunity open to write for it each week than worry about what my time is worth. If the Pointer didn't exist, there wouldn't be anything to worry about. I'd rather worry about feeling unappreciated. \ Amusing, isn't it? Political oppression, unjust legislation, Contra Aid, World Hunger; Apartheid. Are you laughing yet? Wha~, you're n~t · amused by these issues and people who are well informed and. have beliefs based on facts concerning them? I don't understand. According to your self procl3imed spokesperson, UWSP students are not interested in these issues and they find people who are (SNIF) quite amusing. A letter to the editor was printed in last week's Pointer whose author asked to have his name withheld. This daring writer claimed that UWSP students don't care about SNIF concerns which are of global significance. He went on to call Student National Information Front demonstrations "hippy- type demonstrations" that "aren't the.way to go about it." Well, Einstein, w~y don't_ you enlighten us with THE WAY to go about it. . It never~ ·to amaze me how uninformed, uninterested and, usually, uneducated individuals unfairly attack people who are trying to improve conditions for everyone, even their critics. Voicing one's opposition to existing policies is essential in protecting ourselves using the advantages out democratic society affords- us. Don't you see that SNIF is an organization that should be praised for' its persistence in education and its courage in talking about real issues in a hear no evil see no evil environment? Stevens Point is not exactly in the thick of things..· One could exist in Point and never be touched by any of the issues of today (unless we're nuked or receiving financial aid for school or living) ~ Because of this we should be thankful for SNIF and groups like it. Maybe SNIFfers are a little different in superficial ways, but who cates? Are we so limited by our eyes that we can't hear what they're ·saying to us about what is truly important. Democracy, promotion of just legislation; feeding the hungry, and -unlocking the chains that bind millions in their own countries. Amusing isn't· it? All that SNIF represents is good, real, and necessary if we are to have hope for a better way of life for people of all nations, including our own. Because of SNIF's commibnent to freedom, humanity and peace, the group and its members are deserving of respect, honor and a fair chance. No, •you don't have to agree with what they're saying, but at least listen BEFORE ):OU play judge and executioner. Attend one SNIF meeting. To all of you SNIF aggressors out there, please, open your minds before you open your mouths. H you haven't the courage to sign your name to an opinion, then maybe it needn't be expressed.

I wanted to be a writer. His advise to me was to get out into the world and experience things, then go back to school to learn how to write about them. His explanation took the form of a metaphor something like this, "Have you ever seen the way that a school of fish swim? They always follow the very first fish.

Experience teaches me that change does not originate in our legislator's offices, but rather in the wants of their constituents. The gag order that the author would seemingly like imposed on these "fringe groups" shockingly parallels political systems foreign our own. Further, · to even have the gall to suggest that UWSP has ·no interest in what these groups have to say, clearly indicates that this is the view of one ignorant individual and not mine.

The 5-month-old cygnets are part of the Department of Natural Resources Trumpete~ Swan Recovery . Program. The swans had been housed temporarily at facilities at the Milwaukee County Zoo where two pairs of adult trumpeters remain. · These swans were donated recently to the DNR by Ramon Whitney of the Dellwood Wildlife Foundation in Dellwood, Minnesota to make up for the cygnet losses to predators and vandals during the spring crossfostering activities. Of the 20 trumpeter swan eggs acquired last spring, two of the 11 hatchling cygnets survived to the age of 4 weeks. Snapping turtles and mink are believed to have killed nine and DNR officials are investigating the possibility that a young boy may have killed the remaining two. Nine of the eggs never hatched: These 20 eggs were the foundation of the ~ross-fostering effort in southeastern Wiscons~ In the cross-fostering program, trumpeter eggs were incubated and hatched in the nests of mute swans, a species of. similar habit and habitat. "The ultimate loss of all 20 eggs was a setback to the recovery program," said Sumner Matteson, coordinator of the· Trumpeter Swan Recovery Program. "But the donation of the six young swans by Mr. Whitney gives us the edge we need to forg~ ahead with the program. "We will care for these birds at the overwintering site until they're 23 months old. Then they will be paired and released at suitable sites in western Wisconsin in the hopes that they'll . establish nesting territories and raise young in Wisconsin when they reach the age. of three to four years. Those may be the first native trumpeter swanS hatched in Wisconsin in almost 100 _years." The overwintering site con- ' sists of a shallow lake where open water can be maintained throughout the winter by aerators. Food and shelter is provided, however, caretakers avoid unnecessary contact with the birds. According to· Matteson, a modified cross-fostering program will continue next spring. Eggs acquired throtigh a cooperative program with the Minnesota DNR and Alaska will be incubated and hatched by Wisconsin mute swans at a facility in Illinois. When the cygnets are five weeks old, they · and the adult mute swans will be returned to their . original nesting site in southeastern Wisconsin where the adults will continue to raise the trumpeter yourig. "We proved that the cross-fostering technique can work and with a large scale predator control effort earlier in the spring to live-trap snapping turtles and mink from the area, we believe the cygnets will have an excellent chance of survival," said Matteson. Offi.cials believe the 5-week-old cygents will be large enough to be less attractive prey to any remaining turtles or mink. The fund- raising efforts for the programs are also continuing through the Natural Re- . sources Foundation of Wisconsin, Inc. Donations are being sought statewide to support the $85,000 program budget for 1988. Individuals contributing $5 or more will receive a beautiful full-color poster of a trumpeter swan adult shielding her young on the nest.

The line you use to pull up your bow should be tied to both your bow and your quiver. If the. quiver were to become separated from your bow in transit, it would fall and land on the forest floor. Other mistakes to avoid involve odors. .A deer's nose is his primary defense against predators. Use a cover scent to mask your body's natural human odor. Be careful to select the proper scent, for example, a pine scent would be unnatural in an all-hardwood forest. Once the rut begins use a doe-in-heat scent. Cover scents aren't cure-alls, so avoid anything that has_ an unnatural scent. Don't gas your car up before you head out and please no smoking in the car on . the way out the_!e. Also avoid foods with repugnant odorsdeer don't like tacos. When you bathe, use unscented soaps. Don't use any aftershave. You are going deer hunting, not on a date. Likewise, avoid sweating once in the woods. Climbing a tree is strenuous. Unzip your coat to prevent overheating. Sounds will also startle deer and make them suspicious. Try to stay still on your stand. You can get away with a few slow movements, but any quick motion will draw a deer's attention.

You see, I want to have a decent burial: However, I have come to the conclusion that the Bible was made out to be a world constitution; 8ome good advice on how man should lead a life so he can be exploited! I don't think that the God mentioned in the good book anything about us men being superior to our wives, or that whites are being better than blacks! That thought comes from 'the mind of the devil, if there is one. It made me think abopt my children, too. Authority didn't mean that I should lord it _ over them. These days -I have become more comfortable with the new epoch. . The major issues remained with my wife. After being liberated myself, I began to see thiJigs in her perspective. l saw her need to be an individual, with her own identity. So I split the household chores into two. E:qtctly. I shrewdly explained · that she also had to take on her . fair share of the bills, now that she had a better job. Of course, I wanted to enjoy life too. I also realized I had needs which had to be satisfied somehow. Everything worked perfectly for awhile. Then she began to complain. The chores, especially the bills (who said bills were not a part of household chores?), were too much· for her. She could not handle it all; she was tired of this equality stuff. Says she didn't mean it that way. My, what a confused · world it is. So I am back here again; trying to figure things out because I love my wife and want to make her happy. I am reading the good book again and applying some common sense to see - where I went wrong the first time. Now I realize nothing will work until we listene to one another; until we stop having airs about ourselves, thinking we .are better than the guy nextdoor.
