"About 67% of the students at
UWSP would still qualify for
tutoring."
_
Therefore approximately
33% of the campus lhat may
need tutoring are ineligtble for
discriminatory reasons. Some
students have made accusations of reverse discriminationand some minority students
protest that this policy fosters
the notion that they are intellectually inferior.
The tutoring center is conducting an assessment, along
with Schoenfeld, that would
assess how many students really require the tutoring service.
H this assessment shows that
a high number -of students
need, but no longer can get
help, a pro~ would be sent
to Vice Chancellor Howard
Thoyre, which would ask if
other avenues of funding can
be pursued. The drawback to
this is that any action taken
wouldn't occur until well after
next semester is underway.
This could see some students
having serious problems in
passing classes because they
weren't able to get the tutoring
services which are ·now available only to a selective group.
Schoenfeld voiced a sense of
urgency and thinks there is a
need to help students now. He
suggested that each department work to develop their
own tutoring service immediately.
"This current
semester is almost finished. If
a proposal isn't on Vice Chancellor Thoyre's desk ·until
February 1, then next semester
too, will not have a structured
tutoring program for those
who may need it, but don't
qualify."
The UWSP tutoring center
suggested that the best thing
for a student to do at this time
if they are having difficulties in
a particular class is to form a
study group with members of
that class. In addition to that,
the Academic Achievement
Center,whichhousestheWriting and Reading Labs, offers
general program tutoring for
such GDR classes such as

.NEWS------'---First million-dollar year
for student employment
An office at UWSP matching students seeking jobs with
area employers seeking parttime workers has logged its
ftrst million- dollar year. .
UwSP announced it has
collected information from
participating employers who
paid $1,002,920 in salaries to
661 students for the fiscal year
.
that ended June 30.
Helen Van Prooyen, who
\ directs the Student Employ~ent Office, said the income
was even larger because some
companies decline disclosing
financial 'informatin to the
university.
"Seven years ago when we
opened the Student Employment Office on the strength of
the (federally-funded) Job
Location and Development
Program funding, we never
dreamed of this kind of success. But we were proud of a
ftrst year showing of $56,000,
which in itself exceeded the
federal requirments, " Van
Prooyen informed colleagues
in a recent memo.
Participating employers
range
from
individual
homeowners to operators of .
small businesses to managers
of some of the · area's larger
companies..
United Parcel Service
(UPS) and Sentry Insurance
account for well over half of
the one million dollars in student income recorded during
the year.
UPS employed at least 102
people who earned at least
$400,000. Additionally, Sentry
paid 109 students at least
$260,000 during the same
period.
Many of the employers are
especially appreciative of the
special skills possessed by students, Van Prooyen said.
Currently, her office is helping F"Jgi. Inc. of Marshfield
recruit
600
seasonal
employees for position locally.
The Student Employment
~ Office, located in the lower
level of the Park Student Services
Center,

possible to more quickly match
the qualiftcations and job
preferences of workers with

"Bright Lights in the Big City''
Public Relations Students
Society of America's national
convention.
The convention, featuring
conference ·
se5sions,

sionals in public relations, invited students to participate in
their convention October 2325.
Pat Gaffney, Michele ~ar­
ver and Russ Schirmer represented the Stevens Point
chapter of PRSSA.
Michele Marver, vice-president, mentioned some of the
highlights of the "Bright Lights
in the Big City'' 1989 convention. She enjoyed the opening
speech by Chuck Hartlage,
National Chairman·of the conference.
"He spoke very honestly on
the PR job market and said
that only the motivated and
hard workers will succeed," he
said.
Hartlage advised students .

LETTERS___...;;__--- ISrl Pointer Nay
I am disheartened that, once
again, ynust write you a letter
of complaint as it would seem·
t\3-t, ag~ your newspaper
sense has completely left you.
On page nine of your current
issue, you have filled threequarters of the page with articles on the problem of sexual
assualt. This week I submitted
(on time, mind you) a short article on the 'Take Back the
Night March' that the UWSP
and Stevens Point area community are mobilizing to organize to bring awaren~ to
. and protest the problem of
sexual assault. In light of cur/ rent legislative events, campus
events and the frequent, now
infamous, cries of "student
apathy!", · wouldn't it have ·
made more sense to use page
nine's filler-space for the 'Take
Back the Night' article highlighting an · action students
could take as a measure of
protest against sexual assault,
instead of the 'TEKE Barrel
Role' or 'True West'?
I'm not suggesting, by any
means that these articles are
valueless and need be completely
removed, · rather,
placed elsewhere for a more
continuous and thus, more ef·
fective page.
Please, Pointer Staff, let's use
a bit more common sense next
time.
Thank you,

Thanks to the Pointer staff
for being part of the solution by
focusing on date rape and
sexual assualt in last week's
issue.
· In my work as a psychologist
at UWSP and previously at two
larger universities I have encountered countless women
(and some men) who have
been victims and survivors of ·
sexual assault, date rape, harrassment and subtler forms of
socially-sanctioned disrespect.
The date rape victim in the article last week shared a ·
familiar, sad and hopeful personal story. As Don Burling
indicated, reported sexual
· violations are but the tip of the
iceberg. The woman's account
of her experience gives us the

The community as a whole may benefit from courageous
acts of individuals who choose
to report and pursue legal cqnsequences for what they have
suffered. However, it is too
easy to invoke community welfare concel'DS in encouraging
the already-injured to report.
What about the commll!lity's

Editorial:
Lakeshore development
......
decreases lake quality
.
The lakes of northern WISconsin have experienced many
changes in their collective histories.
They were originally carved
..>ut of the landscape by glaciers .
wer 10,000 years ago. Then
fish and other aquatic life
populated their depths. Pines
grew large along their shores.
Native Americans paddled
canoes across these waters and
ate from the bounty of fish and
vild rice they offered. Then
aune Europeans. First they .
were trappers, fur traders and
.nissionaries. Later they were
lumber barons and loggers.
The lumber barons saw the
voods surrounding these lakes
lS sources of immense profit.
The pines were cut down.
Only the best logs went to the
mill. The rest were left to rot.
It was not a pretty sight.
In time the cutover areas
healed and large pines
returned. These scenic lakes
ilOW offer recreation. Tourists
flock to them. For some
people a week on a lake is their
chance to "get away from it all."
Now, once again, these
1akes are seen as sources of
profit. This time it is not lumber barons but rather
developers, real estate agents
and ·condo· builders. Lake
property is being bought and
houses built at a quick rate.
Lakes are becoming ringed
with cottages and some now .
resemble Venice, Italy more
than the pristine natural areas
they once were . In trying to "get away from it
all", lakes are being transformed into the subdivisions
people are trying to get away
from. Instead of being built
near asphalt these subdivisioions · are being built
around water.
A lake is more than just
. water. It is more than just the
water found in the lake basin.
As any Waters 180 student can
tell you the watershed of a lake
goes far beyond the shoreline.
A lake is the land along the
. lake, too. This land offers
habitat for animals that use the
lake. The loons that people
love don't float on the water all
day. They have a nest on
shore. It is in this nest that they
lay their eggs and hatch the
loons of the futu!e. I have yet
to see a loon nest on someone's
dock.
•
Loss of habitat results in the
reduction of a species potential future population. Different species require certain
amounts of room to Jive. This
will not change. One cannot
cram loons or any_ other
species into a smaller space.
Man is the only animal that
builds hi-rises and condos.
By building cottages on
lakes man ·decreases the
amount of habitat available.
Man also changes the quality
of habitat available.
Most of the newer lake
"cottages" could qualify as
castles. _They are bigger than
most family homes. So much
for roqghing it.
I am disturbed by people
falsely thinking that owning a
lakeshore home is just like
owning a house on Main
Street. People want a nice
green lawn between their cottage and the water. Kentucky
bluegrass doesn't thrive on
northern Wisconsin soils. In
order to grow a lush green lawn
these cottage owners need to
heavily fertilze. Much of this
fertilizer runs off or seeps into
the lake. In the lake the
ferilizer fertilizes weeds. This
additional nutrients, along
with those contributed by failing septic systems, lead to lake
weed problems. So much for a
pristine lake.
Perhaps people should
remember that pines and birches belong on shore not a
manicured lawn. Lakes are
the northwoods, not the suburbs.
We should keep lakes a~
natural as possible. Umiting
the building of and the size of
new lake homes would be a
start. I question why someone
needs to builq a new cottage.
while there is another one for
sale on the same lake.
Lakes are not the property ·
oflakeshore owners. They are
owned by the public. They are
also an important part of the
enviroment.
We should
respectfully enjoy them but not
abuse them. Since the next
glacier isn't due for awhile we
inust protect the lakes we have. '
We must start now.

The Jacobins is a new student organization on the

The Jacobins was founded
last April by Madison, James

accusations of student apathy
by SGA. They felt that both

them, "If you're so incrediby

Competition is great, but
when you complain about the
little trivial calls, you are getting really technical. Most
teams I "ref' are super, they
just want to play volleyball and
have fun in the process. When
the teams are having a good
time, I'm having a good time
and I enjoy watching them

If everyone was at the same

Beth(Weiland) ran very well," .
said Hill of their 14th (19:07)
and 15th (19:10), respective
finishes. "Beth has had a
muscle spasm in her back and
that slowed her up a little. The
pack of Mamie Sullivan
(19:37),
Aimee
Knitter
(19:40}, Kris Helein (19:41),
" Suzy Jandrin (19:49), and ~
Nancy Kortenkamp (19:59)
. did exactly what they had to do
in order for us to finish ahead
- of Whitewater.
!Debbie Hartz, Beckey
Mears, Tami Langton, and
Kristin Gjerdset also had great
races," Hill added. "I am very
proud of the team!"
The UWSP men ran to a
fourth-plaee finish (104) in the
WSUC behind Oshkosh (22),
Eau Claire (60), and La Crosse
(65). Picked ·fifth going into
the race, the team.managed to
·,outscore Whitewater (134),
River Falls, Platteville, and
Stout.
"I am extremely proud of the
effort that our young men gave.
I know that every one of them
gave us 100 percent effort,".
Coach Rick Witt siad. "So
from that perspective I can be
- nothing but happy."
Witt said the team was a littie disappointed with the
fourth place team performance, but added: "That was
something we had no eontrol
· over. We knew going into the
meet that this would be very
difficult race with five of the
top 14 teams in the country in
the race.
"Unlike other sports where
what you do can affect what
your opponent does, in cross
country you have absolutely no
control over what your opponent can do. Saturday we
ran about as well as we could
on that day, and were just
beaten by three teams that are
all in the top ten in the country.
"Our team.is young with only
two seniors," Witt added, "so I
know that the experience that
we gained will help us as we go
down the road. . Kim Lasecki
ran a good race (8th in 25:39),
he went out with the leaders
and just lost a couple of places
in the race at the finish. I know
that he will run even better in
the next two races as he is now
. feeling good again."
· "Matt Hamilton (26:17),
and Rick Hruby .(26:19), both
sophomores, ran super races.
They were vecy focused on
what they wanted to do and .
went out and did it. They are
ready for a big performance at
regionals.
"Our next four men: Rob . .werebroughtin.byToddGood
Sparhawk (26:30), Bill Dean · (27:22), Harvey Hill (28:09),
