Students favor c·o ndom machines by Scott Huelskamp News Editor The issue of whether or not to install condom machines on the UWSP ~us has taken a positive turn. Of the 1,000 students .who re- Campus computer · - sy~tems The University of WisconSinStevens Point is the recipient of about $500,000 worth of computer equipment from .(T&T, Chancellor Philip Marshall announced today. _ The grant includes 102 AT&T business personal computers. Seventy-seven of them will be installed in laboratories and faculty offices at UWSP and 25 are to be used at the UW Center campus in Marshfield, _ which is being linked by phone line te the computing network on the Stevens Point campus. AUWSP, which has purch!lsed Wconsiderable AT&T equipment in the past, baS also received several previous equipment grants as an outgrowth of a partnership agreement it · has with the company. The university has agreed to be a beta test site and showcase/demonstration facility where AT&T can refer prospective clients, partictilarly in the field of higher education. Since i986, AT&T has been equipping a special deomonstration laborat()ty which is open to visitors and can be used in local academic projects by students and faculty. The latest grant also includes about $20,000 in additional equipment and other furnishings for that facility. Located in the Science Hall, Chancellor Marshall says the grant will "significantly enhance UWSP's computing network." Marshall has been active in helping establish UWSP as a national leader in higher education in the use of computers for instructional purposes. What sets the school apart from all other, he contends, is the fact that computer equipment is readily available to studerits. There are more than 250 computers in seven laboratories throughout the campus. Each of the facilities is open 90 hours per week. In addition, offices which serve students are :quipped with another 200 com~uters -and faculty members nave 400 of the devices in their 'Jffices. ' James Leonhart, AT&T national account manager, said people from his company take -5 special interst in what is being r1, done with computers at UWSP 1$ because "Stevens Point was one 1'4 of the first sites in the country where the AT&T Information ,...

AT&T is broadening its service to higher·education in this part of the state by adding equipment making it possible for the UW Center at Marshfield, which has a two-year collegiate curriculum, to be linked by computers with UWSP. The hookup will make it possible for Marshfield students and faculty to access a wide range of information fi-om UWSP. In turn, a similar link has been made · for UWSP with UW-Madison. Students and faculty members at Marshfield will be able to use the link to access information from Madison as well. ,i ! sponded to a recent survey, 800 of them favor installation of such a dispenser. Surveys were given to all residence halls and distributed in the UC Concourse. The survey was constructed and tabulated by the Student Government Association (SGA). The resolution drawn up by SGA using the survey results will be presented at ttie Student Senate meeting this Thursday for discusSion and then voted on the following Thursday. H the proposal is passed in the ' Senate, it will be shown to the University Affairs Council for their . input; but they do not have the power to override the vote. "I think some sort of resolution will pass for condom vending machines," said SGA President Steve Cady . "I think we will see condom vending machines next year, possibly even next semester." UWSP does not want to assume the liability of condom machines on campus so if the resolution is passed, an outsic;le vending machine company will be contracted for the installation. The possible locations for the machines will be in bathrooms or laundry rooms in residence halls. There will . probably be only one machine per hall. Cady said the resolution was left open so that machines can be installed anywhere on campus. "It is not the sales that wi1J · do a great thing because the company will not make a lot of money off the machines but it will raise awareness," said Cady. Please see page 14 Pointer Page z T.G.I.

Despite being a substantial amount of money, Diemer noted that the appropriation is still bare bones because of the large numbe_r of people it serves. Salaries account for the largest piece of the budget pi~1 percent or $32· million. This money covers wages for approximately 950 permanent employees on the faculty, academic and classified staff, another 100 limited term employees and 1,600 part-time student workers. Add to the salaries another $7.5 million or approximately 12 percent of the budget for employee fringe benefits. Diemer said "things are definitely tight" for such things as capital items and supplies and travel. For example, the state provides UW- SP with $1,568,000 for supplies and travel. In the past decade when costs nearly doubled, this account was increased by only about $250,000, the assistant chancellor explained. · About $2.5 million is appropriated for capital items. Diemer lauded the faculty and staff for stretching these dollars at a time when funds are small in comparison with the needs for new instructional .equipment and for replacement of existing , items. Loans and grants to students, most of which are financed by the federal goverrunent, amount to more than $5.5 or nine percent o~ budget. Energy costs run an average of $5,000 per day for heat, lights, cooling and food preparation. Part of this $1..8 million annual bill is covered by receipts from students for dorm room rent. However, the largest chunk of it is financed by state tax dollars, and the legislators approached a budget based on energy conswned last year. For UW-SP that amounts to a $150,000 utility budget reduction. The problem with that, Diemer said, is that the university was not able to keep its energy saving for the unusually mild winter of 1986-87 to offset any higher costs in the futul1!, and there are predictions 1that this winter will be colder than usual. uW 5 t ys em B d U t ge Comparison 1986-87 1.

By Susan Buhrandt SpecliJl to tbe PobJter What happens when you gather 10 screaming, enthusiastic cheer squads and five talented pom pon squads together in one gym in one afternoon? The 1987 Cheer and Pom Pon Clinic and · Competition, of course! This _ years' clinic, held on Sunday, November 9, was organized by UAB's Teresa Keenan. Teresa commented,_ '~This year's clinic was by far the biggest and most talented ever." The competition included che~r squads from River Falls, College of St. Thomas-Minnesota, Oshkosh, Eau Claire, Whitewater, Platteville, Carroll College, Stout and UWSP's own football and basketball squads. Each squad had five minutes to perform a routine incorporating pyramids, stunts and dancing set to music. I The porn pon squads also had tough competition from St. Thomas:.Minnesota, St. Cloud-Min- nesota, UW-Green. Bay, Parkside, Whitewater and UWSP's porn pon squad. · The morning began with the cheer team competition. The level of skill was the best it has· . been, with squads performing the most difficult stunts and pyramids. Enthusiasm was at its highest point with tumbling, jumps and chants as each squad was given their opportu- · nity to strut their stuff in style. Following the cheer team competition, the pom ·p on squads had the spotlight. The talent of each individual incorporated with 10 or 20 others expressed the sltill and timing of each squad. After the competition there was an open hour lunch break to relax. The afternoon instruction began by separating the porn pon squads from the cheer teams. The porn pon trophies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd were handed out first with St. Thomas - Minnesota in 3rd, UWSP poms in 2nd and St. Cloud - Minnesota taking 1st. The excitement grew as the trophies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place were awarded to the cheer squads. In 3rd place was UWSP's basketball cheer squad, UW-Eau Claire in 2nd place and College of St. Thomas-Minnesota taking 1st place. A "Spirit Stick" was also awarded to St. Thomas for " enthusiasm based on team voting. Judges, qualified personnel chosen from Stevens Point and Madison, based scores on enthusiasm, entrance, exits, timing, appearance, reco'(reries and overall effect of the routine.

This university doesn't get enough money." Really? Since 1982, UWSP has .received $2 million from the U.S. Dept. of Education, in a Title III grant to make this campus a major center of computing competency. , Can't argue with that. UWSP is a showcase facility now. Computer illiterates come here from far and wide to sp~ in user-friendly tongues and worshlp the AT&T god at our mecca. Among the wonders: -cheap, accessible student labs; ~ personal desktop computer faculty gifts . -a campus-computer-connecting Information Systems Network (ISN) of national repute. . ) Student Life got computers too, but not from AT&T, and paid $1.7 million. The university borrowed $200,000 from the University reserve fundl. where old -student fee monies go to aie, to hel,J! ~ay for that. But you know, moneys tight. / In ' 1985, UWSP bought a state-of-theart voice/data communication system. Telephones, for $1.3 million. It was paid-for within the month. . On July 15, 1987, UWSP bought $100,000 worth of SMART and then install~d it on 600 university computers. Desp1te not having any money. Let's see, what else have we bought? Oh ~es, the Comm. Bldg. renovation. I don t know why, exactly, but now the first floor has "people pockets" with wooden benches where you can sit in the hallway, during your spare time. There's lots of mirrors on the walls too to watch yourseH in stunning mid-walk _ _profile.. Let's not forget the large and mystenous glass cases, .which are carpeted and have nothing inside. And the plastic plants, that's a plus. . This improvement cost UWSP $249,000. A small part of that came fro!Jl the U.C. reserve, but that sho~d J be no surprise. How about that landscaping between Old Main, Student Services, and the U.C.? It only cost $219,000 and look at all the cement we got. . Don't forget the Paper Scien~e addition. You can see that every tlme you walk by the Science Bldg. and dodge the falling crane hoists. But· this one is academic. The addition will be used largely for research, concerning the university's. attempt to grow money on trees, I think. · AT&T heard about the university's funding problems and gave us $500,000 worth of free computers. They're nice like that. Sensing the trend, I called AT&T to see if they couldn't do .something about the Pointer phone bill. Or maybe they could give us lots of advertising, so we could afford to print more than 16 pages every week. · So it appears'the university is lookin~ pretty tip-top. How's your checkbook"? Feeling the 9.2% tuition increase? Hope not, because it's going up at least another 4.5% next year. And financial aid, well, just ask the 2,000 · UWSP students whose GSL eligibility went out the window this year. .A recent Board of Regents study found state support per ·uw student to be $600 below the national average. Fewer classes, overcrowding, ·obsolete lab equipment, and a one to two year graduation delay have resulted. All the c.omputers in China (or UWSP) couldn't fiX .that. . · But enrollment cuts can. A plan to remove 7,000 students from the UW System in ·four years is underway. Problem is, the students left behind haye t~ make up the loss, since this uruvers1ty doesn't get enough money. out of the reserves. It all works out . It certainly does appear that the ·people who run this uruversity need more money.- But they're not the _only ones. A by Karen RivedT · Editor So they raise student fees.

On the grounds' surrounding the academic buildings, library, and University Center, there are nine available garbage cans. At UWSP there are 9,386 full time students. That' calculates to a ratio of one garbage can for every 1,043 students passing through these grounds. UWSP has a nationally acclaimed reputation as a leader in the health promotion/wellness field. Does the above ratio uphold this reputation for promoting health?

The University of WisconsinStevens Point has won, for the first time, the annual Midwest soil judging contest sponsored by the American Agronomy Society· and Soil Science Society of ·An\erica. · A team comprised of three men and one woman topped 17 other teams to advance to the national meet next spriilg in Brookings, S.D. Their coach · and ~acuity adviser is James Bowles. The student judges, all seniors, are Sandra Davis of Fort Atkinson; JooMason~Stevens Point; Joe Paliara of La Crosse; · and Robert Schrooter, Stevens Point. Each of them received individual trophies and the team was given a large trophy for display on campus. Mason took second place among about 75 participants in individuals judging competition. The judging was done in Bartholomew County of southern Indiana. students and faculty from Purdue University arranged the event. Though soil fudging teams from UWSP have been victorious at numerous contests in other leagues, this win was the first at the 30-year-old regional contest for Stevens Point students. The four-member group topped last year's team, which had the best record in that event to that date with a third place finish and an invitation to the national n;leeting in New York State. Wisconsin teams have long been powerhouses in soil judging competition, Bowles reports, particularly representatives of UW-Platteville, UW-River Falls and UWSP. Earlier this fall, those and several other schools entered a state soil ·judging contest at Treehaven Field Station near Tomahawk, hosted by UWSP. UW-Platteville was winner of that event. Bowles said this year's judges worked exceptionally long and hard in preparation for the regional competition-meeting three times per week for field practice, plus one night a wee~ for other study.

The Falcons, owning the No. 2 ranked rushing attack in the country; were held to just 104 yards whUe the passing game was non-existent, 0 for 8 on the day. The Pointer victory assured uw-sP of at least a tie for the WSUC title, while knocking River Falls out of the running. The loss wa8 the Falcons third straight defeat. Point improved to 6-1 in the league and 8-2 overall while River Falls fell to 4-3 and 5-4. Neither team managed to score in the first quarter, but · both teams did · have opportunities. "The defense played a great game as a whole," said Pointer assistant coach Ron Steiner. "Craig Verhagen and Greg and Dan Dantoin played well, but. it's hard to cite just onf:! or two people from that group." Following a River Falls turnover, the Pointer offense started . to get on track in the second quarter. After a roughing . the kicker penalty on the Falcons, the Pointers marched down field and scored on a 33-yard touchdown pass from Kirk Baumgartner to Kevin Bostad. Kevin Deates kicked the PAT to give Point a 7-0 lead. After the Pointer defense stopped the Falcons' could once again go to work. After completing passes to Theo Blanco and Aatron Kenney~ Baumgartner handed off to . Keith Majors who scored on a six-yard run up the middle. The Pointers were successful on their next drive as Blanco ran up the middle for the score which gave Point a 21-0 lead at the half. Blanco had 13 carries for 46 yards while catching J3 , passes for 199 yards. ·He broke several records on the day - 93 receptions in a single season, a WSUC record 72' catches in a season and a WSUC yardage record of 1,103. "The key was the defense turning the ball over t~ the offense," said Steiner.
