United c..il - protection for most religions;· said a member of the forum's steering committee, Episcopalian Bishop William Wantland. "It is a very dangerous decision. The decision speaks of all religions and says that an unpopular or minority religion may fmd that it_doesn'thave the freedom to exercise its practices. The Episcopal Church could find its religious practices outlawed, as indeed it was, and the Supreme Court decision .would allow that now." The Supreme Court has traditionally made a distinction between belief and behavior when it comes to religion. The Supreme Court decision raises a · topic of interest among forum attendees: Does the U.S. government acknowledge tribal · sovereignty or allow it to exist? The peyote ritual happens to be twice as old as Judaism and five times older than Christianity. "The Oregon~ takes away the compelling (social) interest and says that if law pasSed by the state that is not specifically aimed at one religion, but has the practical effect of prohibit~ ing that religion, th'e state may do . so," explains Wantland. "Religion is a sovereign issue here because this issue does impinge not only on particular religions, but on the whole relationship between · state, federal and tribal entities. Each government tries to be as sovereign and powerful as it can." Webster expanded on this concept when he addressed the luncheon on Tuesday, explaining, "Sovereignty is the will of the tribe. The whole concept of sovereignty is overwhelming. A tree has sovereignty, the soil has sovereignty, individuals have sovereignty--it's a natural right, a law of nature." It is currently unknown if another will be held next year.

I Students vo1ce concerns and get free lunch, too by Wendy Nagel Contributor Project Listen held another lunch with Chancellor Keith Sanders, Student Government President Craig Schoenfeld and students who were picked at random. Homecoming festivities were first on the agenda. Everyone agreed that it was a success. Yell Like Hell almost saw the appearance of Governor Tommy Thompson. Kerry Thomas, a member of University Activities Board, thought it would be a neat idea if Thompson participated in Thomson Hall's skit. Thomas talked with Thompson and the arrangements were finalized. Later. Thomas received a letter saying Thompson couldn't participate. The funds for Yell Like Hell were from a university state fund. Melissa Arndt brought up the fact that, "the University Center doesn't have enough places for students to gather. Activities are only programmed for the weekend and are minimal." Arndt thinks that the UC has a study oriented atmosphere, and that there aren't enough places for students to socialize. She feels that since the library is · · just across the street, there is no reason not to use the UC to meet student social needs. Sanders said he felt that the reason for this problem is the recent the closings of Piccadilly and Je.remiahs. He encouraged students to attend the food serexpress these concerns. Janet Kazda commented .on the excellent service of the nontraditional student office. She attributed its success to the current head, Martha St. Germaine. St. Germaine will be transferring to the cultural diversity department. Kazda expressed concern over the next replacement. Kazda suggested hiring someone who can be available to work flexible hours, especially evenings. Steve Gelbraith suggested having afternoon or evening hours and deleting some morning hours. Sanders said, "Non-traditional numbers are growing, however, the institution's awareness is behind in the population being served, and it's up to the non-traditionals to be sure that their feelings and needs are being articulated." Both Sanders and Schoenfeld stated this is a concern of theirs. Pat Greenwall asked about the Health Enhancement Center and funds connected to it. Schoenfeld explained that SGA has put up $1,060,000 so that students would not have to pay until they could utilize the center. This is the first semester students have had to pay $6 for the center's upkeep. There was some concern expressed about whether faculty should have to pay $50 per year and whether alumni should be required to pay $265 per year for use. 1 vice committee meetings to Sanders was also concerned that athletes who are,required to use the facilities are being made to pay fees. · Schoenfeld'headed discussion over the city bus service. Some students said they utilize the service and some said they didn't. Terry Twet said, :·I don't be A suggestion to extend hours in the evenings and weekends and decrease hours in the morning was made. Currently, SGA funds half of the city bus ticket cost for the year if students buy their ticket at the UC. It was suggested that offcampus students need an escort service. Warts most common STD by Barry Radler Staff Writer The most common sexually transmitted disease among col~ •lege students is likely not the most farai!is.u'. The number of cases of venereal dr genital warts caused by Human Papillomavirkils (HPV) are at epidemic on the disease, Dr. Jim Zach of the · UWSP Health Center states there are over sixty · different types of HPV, with more being discovered every year. HPV has long been linked with causing pre-cancerous and -:a'l.r'\r"·•c; tumors. Approximately three million new or recurrent cases are occurring in the United States each year. The disease seems to be highly contagious, wiht up to ninety percent of the sexual partners of people who have HPV found to also be infected. HPV can infect the skin and reproductive tract mucus membnmeto th!Ol.'gh small breaks and abrasions that commonly occur during intercourse. The disease can be transmitted by any unprotected sexual contact and even on areas not covered by a condom. · The average incubation time between infections and first occurrence of warts is two to three months but can be as short as a few weeks or exceed twelve months. Warts that appear on the genitalia should be of particular concem Some viral types of HPV ·are associated with causing cancer, particularly cancer of the cervix. Figures from the mid-1980's indicate that 13,000 women had cancer of the cervix, of which 8,000 died, while there were far less cases of cancer of the vagina, vulva, penis and anus. It can take from two to 15 years between the time of infection and the development of cancer. Predisposing factors increasing the risk of cancer include cigaretter smoking, genetic make-up, and combinations of · otherSTDs. Abstaining from sexual activity is obviously the most effective preventin strategy for any STD. If you choose to be sexually active, caution advises a stable, monogamous relationship with a person you care about and who cares about you. This means discussing sexual histories, general · health and drug use openly and honestly with your prospective partner before becoming sexually involved. . While latex condoms are a . proven barrier against penetration by bacteria and viruses, they do not protect genital areas not covered. Condoms offer the best protection against STDs that are transmitted via semen or vaginal fluid between mucus membranes. HPV or herpes, though, are often present on areas not separated by a condom. For this reason, vaginal spermicides are recommended for their anti-bacterial effect and possible anti- viral benefit. There is no talk of a cure for HPV yet. Viral infections of this sort usually persist for the infected person's lifetime, even if the presence of warts is eliminated.

Pointer Page 3 Thursday, Oct. 18th, 1990 Cohgress vs. the President THE POINTER STAFF Regardless _o f the battle, citizens odd man out byRon Wir~z Editor-in-Chief OK, someone please explain to me this whole mess with the U.S. budget. Howcanacountry simply run out of money? How can the first 1 37 presidents balance a budget, and the last three (although Carter was minor) liken it to tetter-tottering with Fat Albert. One of the biggest problems Bush faces is th~ fact that·almost one fourth of the entire budget ($289 billion) is automatically set aside as interest payment for the current debt that Reagan is mainly responsible for. But I'll give the . man dredit, he taught George pretty 'Yell. Those two can say "deficit spending" faster than you can say Toyota. But what is Bush doing at Camp David anyway? He spent the Sunday before the first budget deadline at this mountaintop retreat. Maybe he was trying to get closer to God so he could find a sOlution to the problem. May9e not. He also ·vetoed a bill designed to ke;ep the .government operating during negotiations. It's good to know he cares so much about the people under him when he sits so smugly on top of Camp !David looking down on everyone like Jim Jones. I It seems he' s 1more interested in stalling the budget talks so the budget doesn't pass. This will · immediately put the ·budget on automatic Graham-Rudman pilot, which mandates a b!Uanced budget with pre-established cuts in all areas of the budget, particul,arly in the welfare programs. I It seems the federal government has led the psuedo-lemming media intf> believing th~ the government would collapse. The belief here is that when Congress finally does pass a budget, people I will sigh and cheer for her0ic lawmaking · above and beyond the call of duty, . not recognizing the "budget compromise" as, the big doodle it really is. Re-evaluation must be done to find out why budget negotiations are one month before elections. Either budget negotiations or elections need to be moved away from the other in the calendar year to give each one the attention it deserves. More importantly, by doing so you would prevent one's consequences from influencing the results of the other. ' Very few Congressmen seem genuinely interested in balancing the budget. They are instead more concerned about making an impression that will get them re-·elected, meaning they will stick along party platforms which got them there in the fttst place when budget voting comes around. They are concerned more for their own selves than for the state of our nation and its economy. They'll save their jobs as they watch hundreds of thousands of others lose their jobs to a weak economy being stretched even further by a depression-threatening national debt. This budget impasse has also created a backlog of important legislation in Congress .which still needs to be considered, although it is not budget-related. Among this legislation, are bills for clean air, housing, civil rights, and child care. These are bills that could improve the generally deteriorating condition of the U.S. So you ask 'What exactly has Congress ac. complished?' Well, for one they all agreed on congressional pay raises. What!?! While socially conscious legislation gets · passed over, Congress is passing laws where the ~>nly debate is w~ether they ' want Mercedes or BMWs as the company car. Recent polls conducted by Times/CBS show the general public feels the same way. Fifty-eight percent said they believed that members of Congress ~~re serving themselves Editor-in-Chief instead of their constituents. Even more interesting was that 7'1 percerlt believe that the federal government is controlled by big business. It seems that the American public trusts the motivations of Bush and Congress about as much as I truSt a - weight watcher to guard my fudge brownies. The Reagan-Bush administrations have sold pipe dreams to every citizen worshipping the almighty dollar, while Congess turned its back on balant over spending and waste. Only now are we realizing these dreams had a pay-after-you-see admission fee. Well, it's time to pay up, but the federal government · seems to have left it's wallet in the car. Regardless of the budget outcome it appears that the U.S. citizen has once again become a second class person to the selfish, narrowly focused group of politicians we all put into office.

Beattie says many of the exotic birds were bought by Mathwig from game farms. Here, the birds tend to let down some of their normal breeding rituals resulting in more interbreeding than one would expect in the wild. Therefore, about a dozen of the ducks in the collection are hybrids. Beattie maintains, "Some are hybrids between Mallards and Black Ducks, between White Cheek Pintails and other ducks. One looks like it's a cross between a Scaup and a Wood Duck which is kind of interesting eonsidering one is a diver and one is a d"bbler." Although sv.ne of the specjes are difficult to identify, the inventory is going well and should be complete within two weeks. Beattie says the graduate students have successfully identified about 80 percent of the collection and are presently struggling with the identification of the more difficult birds. Each bird in the collection was personally mounted by Mathwig and, as a whole, the collection should be of benefit to wildlife students. "It will broaden their perspective on wildlife from different parts of the world mainly because the species they're used to studying here, that we have mounted, are from North Americ,a," says Beattie. He by Steve Schmidt Outdoors Editor UWSP wildlife students may be learning more about avion life than they bargained for. Recently, the College of Natural Resources received a collection of about 434 mounted birds appraised at $87,000. · The donor of this extensive collection is retired physician ·Dr. R. J.

He notes that, "80 percent (of the collection) are exotic upland game birds within the pheasant and quail groups." He adds that the collection will be especially valuable for purposes ofinstruction as well as for furnishing the natural resources building with a unique attraction.

A few predator fish from about one-third of the lakes sampled during any given season contain mercury levels higher than the state health guideline of .S parts per million. Other fish in the same waters don't display a mercury problem, he said. Several species and sizes of gamefi.sh from a number of in·land lakes have been added to the advisory due to mercury contamination. Those lakes are: BARRON CO. - Bass (T33 R lOW S34), Beaver Dam, North and Silver Lakes; BURNETI CO. - North Sand L.; DOUGLAS CO. -Bond and Red Lakes; FOREST CO. -Arbutus and Julia Lakes; ONEIDA CO.L.

Tainter MADISON, WI-- Lake Superior siscowet larger than 20 inches, several fish species from 16 inland lakes, and portions of several rivers have been added to the state's sport fish consumption advisory. The advisory aims to protect the most sensitive population-pregnant · women and young children, from potential longterm health risks posed by environmental contaminants found in sport fish, said Dr., Henry Anderson, chief of environm~ntal epidemiology at the Department of Health and Social Services (H&SS). "The advisory gives consumers the information they need to decide whether or how often they should eat sport fish from waters where contamination is a problem," Dr. Anderson said. · The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and H&SS issue a publication describing the advisory each April and October. The guide explains which species and sizes of sport fish may contain environmental pollutants and describes how anglers who want to eat their catch may limit their exposure to these contaminants. The advisory, issued since 1976, now lists fish from 194 sites. The state has tested fish in more than 650 inland and bor- rivers were already named on Eat Sport Fish from Wisconsin the state's fish advisory in pre- Waters," advice for fish contaminated with PCBs and pesticides differs from precautions issued for fish contaminated with mercury. "The two types of contaminants pose different health risks," Dr. Anderson said. Fish contaminate<l with pesor PCBs . ticides (polychlorinated biphenyls) are divided int() three groups based on contaminant levels and fish size. Group 1 fish meet health standards for PCBs and pesticides and pose the lowest health risk. Pregnant women and children under 18 should not eat fish in Group 2. No one should eat fish in Group 3 because these fish contain contamination levels higher than health standards. Fish contaminated with mercury are divided into four groups based on mercury concentrations. Pregnant women should eat .no more than one meal a month of Group 1 fish. Children under 18 as well as pregnant women should eat no more than one meal a month from Group 1 fish. Children under as well as pregnant women should not eat Group 2 or 3 ftsh; everyone else should . limit consumption of Group 2 and 3 fish to 26 and 13 vious years. Officially addc:d to the updated advisory is a previouslyissued precaution on dioxin-contaminated white bass in the Wisconsin River's Petenwell Flowage and carp from the river's Castle Rock Flowage. · The state issued consumption advice affecting those fish in July after adopting a more stringent health guideline for dioxin contan}.ination in sport fish.

The main purposes of the Hall of Fame will be to: 1) convey to the public the importance of Wisconsin's natural resources, 2) emphasize that we as individuals, and as members of a community, have an impact on natural resources, 3) commemorate those outstanding individuals who were instrumental in the . public's education and conservation of natural resources·. The Hall of Fame concept was conceived in 1982 by former UWSP Dean of the College of Natural Resources, Daniel Trainer who mentioned the idea to the National Association of Conservation Districts Regional Representative, Bill Horvath. Horvath remains the driving force for making this dream into a reality, according to Zimmerman. Part of what spurred Horvath on to establish this Hall of Fame was his own lack of knowledge regarding the historical resource management movement in Wisconsin. He wanted to know more and he wanted others to know the rich history of the movement too. "There is a sound and deep conservation ethic in Wisconsin, but what was missing, was a way to pull all that history together," _explained Horvath. He was instrumental in gathering 16 statewide conservation organizations which have remained committed to the Hall of Fame idea from the beginning. "Everyone was real above board about the purpose for the Hall of Fame. There were altruistic feelings from the beginning," assessed Zimmerman. The WCHF Foundation a non-profit organization depends on fundraising for their main source of funding for . making the Hall of Fame materialize. Members of the WCHF Foundation solicit businesses -for construction and planning funds in return for those businesses sponsoring an exhibit in the Hall of Fame. The City of Stevens Point donated $70,000 toward the WCHF, collected from the city's hotel-motel tax. Stevens Point is expected to benefit from the Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame is designed to be a tourist attraction, as well as an educational facility. "We may see as many as 100,000 visitors a year," estimated Zimmerman. Highway signs for Interstate S1 and 10 have already been destgned and paid for. Schmeeckle Reserve was chosen as the site of the Hall of Fame because it is a Universityowned educational facility, it has a central statewide location, and it is in close proximity to the College of Natural Resources. A professor at the College of Natural Resources, Zimmerman is hoping it will prove to be a stimulus to UWSP studentsr "I'm hoping _that students will fmd this inspirational. The people that have been selected to be honored in this gallery are people who would not take "no" for an answer. It not only gives UWSP students, but students of all ages, a chance to get closer to the real events and the real people who were involved." Phase One of .the Hall of Fame, including the inductee · gallery and the classroom, is expected to be open to the public by the spring of 1991. Phase Two of construction will begin at this time and the projected completion date is spring ·of 1993. . ll OUTDOOR REPORT Duck hunters bad pretty good success statewide on opening weekend.

Goose hunters are doing well in the Horicon Zone, where there are large numbers of geese and more arriving daily. About 15,000 geese have been coupted at Theresa Marsh and more are coming in. Bow deer hunters have been doing well in many areas of the state. The deer are working oak areas where there's a plentiful acorn crop. Hunters who exert the effort to locate those ·areas should fmd excellent hunting. Deer are beginning to move around with the shorter days and changing weather. Motorists should be on the lookout for them at dusk and during the nighttime and early morning hours. Groose hunting has been good in Douglas, Bayfield and Sawyer counties. Woodcock are moving into young aspen stands. The fall turkey hunt is underway. Many tlocks have been seen in the Argeyle/Blanchardville area. Recent windy weather has knocked down lots of nuts, so harvest quickly if you want to beat the squirrels! Fishing for smallmouth bass, northern, walleye and crapie is improving on many northern lakes and flowages. Muskies have been hitting on Lake of the Pines, and muskie anglers are using Woodruff-area boat landings quite heavily; suckers are the preferred muskie bait at this time of year. Smallmouth bass and walleyes are being caught on the upper Wisconsin River. Brown County's Voyageur Park is producing muskies (not tiger) in the 30-to 37 -inch range. Brown trout fishing has been good at several Door County piers. Anglers on the Kewaunee River are getting catches ofchinook and coho salmon. Brown trout are active at the Menominee River darn in Marinette County; many salmon are being hooked on Little River, where fishing pressure is heavy. Some snagging is evident, and anglers are reminded that snagging is illegal. Oconto County's Geano Beach is till the place to catch perch -- boats are regularly getting their limit in a few hours. Minnows are the best bait. There's some good fishing in the southeast.

' ' ' Pointer Page 7 Thursday, Oct. 18th, 1990 WiSconsin designates_Wolf Awareness Week Wisconsin will observe Wolf Awareness Week October 21 - 27. The proclamation by Gov. Tommy Thompson was arranged through the efforts of Llte Timber Wolf Alliance in cooperation with the Department of Natural ReSources, said Ron Nicotera, director of the DNR's Bureau of Endangered Resources. · The eastern timber wolf has been a part of Wisconsin's native animal life since the retreat of the glaciers some 10,000 yearsago. 'l At one point the wolf was extirpated from Wisconsin, but it began ·reestablishing packs in Wisconsin's northwoods in the early 1970s as wandering wolves from Minnesota discovered habitat to their liking. "The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service put the eastern timber wolf on the federal endangered species list in 1967," Nicotera said. "Wisconsin declared the wolf an endangered species on the state's listing in 1975." Wisconsin studies in the mid-1970s confirmed that wolves had established themselves in the state and had grown to about four to six active packs by 1 the 1980s. I A Wisconsin timber wolf recovery plan was developed and adopted and stressed three key areas critical to the survival of wolves in .the state. These areas include, public education about wolf ecology, continued wolf population monitoring and habitat management. The Timber Wolf Alliance (TWA) was formed by interested citizens from all areas of the state. They have taken on the challenge of keeping people informed of the status of the wolf in Wisconsin by providing both monetary support and public education materials. One of the efforts is the Wisconsin Wolf Awareness Week. The TWA has produced and distributed a poster using original artwork donated by Al Agnew to highlight the week. Aerial surveys flown in the winter of 1989 showed Wisconsin with a population of 32 timber wolves, according to Adrian Wydeven, DNR biologist and a member of the timber wolf recovery team. Presently there are 11 known packs in the state. Summer surveys have provided information that pups were produced in eight of the packs. There are two main clusters of packs in Wisconsin. One cluster of four packs is located in the Douglas County area. The second main cluster in the Lincoln, Oneida, and Price county area has another four packs. The other three packs identified include the Rainbow Lake pack in Bayfield County, Frog Creek pack in W ashbu_rn County and Log Creek pack in the Sawyer/Ashland'County area. "We're hoping that this winter's survey will fmd somewhere around 40 animals, which will put us halfway to the overall state population goal of 80 wolves," Wydeven said. "The newest pack that was discovered is the Little Rice River pack in Oneida County." · The most accurate survey work is done in the winter time when flying gives firsthand observations of wolves and track counts. Along with the paeks 'that have been identified, several lone individuill wolves have been reported in the Nicolet National Forest, but the reports have not been confirmed. ly." Wydeven said. "The wolf population increase is also due to the large deer herd population and the high wolf populations in Minnesota dispersing into Wisconsin." THE FAR SIDE Coyote hunting is banned in the northern one third of the state during the gun deer hunting season to protect timber wolves from being mistakenly shot by hunters.

Do you have a good coat to carry you through this soon to be treacherous season? A good coat will have an outer fabric and insulation to meet your functional needs and personal style. · · Wool is the most·basic ftber for winter coats. It provides warmth and is somewhat water resistant. wool is also a good choice for dress and car coats. There are other outer fabrics, however, that work' better for severe weather or sporting situations such as skiing. Many materials used for these conditions are lighter weight and have better resistance to snow, rain, and frigid temperatures. Some materials used for outer garments include: ·nylon, gore-tex, ·super ~craft, -and sway. · . .. I I Nylon by itself is good for breaking a dry wind but has little water resistance. It is often combined with other materials to give it more waterproofness or repellency. With most fabrics, as waterproofness increases, breathability decreases. Gore-tex is a fabric that is waterproof and breathable. it is a laminate applied to a base fabric like nylon or polyester. The seams, however, must be sealed since the needle holes are large enough to let moisture in. Super microft is a waterrepellent/breathable fabric but unlike gore-tex, doesn't need to h~ve the seams sealed. One step beyond these waterproof/breathabJe fabrics isan outer fabric called sway. Sway fabric is 100% nylon and coated with microcapsules of temperature sensitive dye. The fabric is most often white indoors, and changes to a color outdoors in cooler temperatures. Waterproof fabrics are mainly for heavy or long exposures to precipitation. Water-repellent outer fabrics do not hold up under wet conditions as well as waterproof fabrics, but are suitable for everyday winter jackets. More technical jackets are designed with an insulation that is laminated with a waterproof or repellent fabric. The warmth of an insulation depends on the amount of air trapped between ftbers. The more air that is trapped, the warmer it will be. Down is excellent in dry weather, but loses it's insulating qualities when it gets wet. Polyester ftberftll provides insulation in damp.and dry conditions but is very bulky. Thinsulate consists · of microftbers. It is much thinner · than down or polyester ftberftll, and provides twice the warmth. Some more advanced insulations include barritherm and solar alpha. Barritherm is related to polyester ftberftll. It is composed of free floating polyester flakes surrounded by two layers of batting. Pores in the batting react to temperature-by closing up to retain heat outdoors, and opening up indoors to expel heat. Solar alpha is a fabric containing zirconium carbide - a . substance with a high rate of absorption, often used in solar power generators. The fabric absorbs sunlight, transforms it to heat, and holds it in the ftbers. The fabric is also heat reflective so it will work on a cloudy day. These are just a few of the components of winter coats this season. Some are basic and some are very advanced. Keep in mind that most likely higher teclmology carries a higher price. When you look for a new coat this season, consider where you will wear it most, and the conditions to which it will be exposed. You can then choose a jacket with the materials that best suit your needs and your pocketbOok. to be held "Franentanz, · Op. 10," and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "Trio, K. 498."

Its membership includes the Medical College of Wisconsin, Marshfield Medical Research . Foundation, faculty and staff of UW- Madison and 350 individuals throughout the state. Before joining the association in January, Vogel worked for the State Medical Society and for Wiscdnsin Department of Health and Social Services. He calls the animal rights debate "a pitched battle for the hearts and minds of the An)erican people." "Despite having the support of most Americans, researchers are put in a precarious position because of radical animal rights actixists willing to use any .means to prevent humans from using animals," he says. The long term goal of the animal rights movement, according to Vogel, is to stop the use of animals for any purpose-food, science, clothing, entertainment of even companionship. : Vogel encourages his audiences to raise their consciousness about animal research and to urge their legfSlators to support sympathetic legislation. 16- (rues) 6pm-10pm 23- {Tues) 6pm-10pm series.

The drama stems from the . complications of juggling the needs of the department, its teachers, its ·students, and the general public, all 1at the same time, says Chairman Arthur Hopper. "While we are trying to train young actors and technicians, we must simultaneously mount productions that are appealing enoug~ to draw audiences," he says. Many members of the university and public audiences are discerning viewers, Hopper Many others, believes. however, prefer plays and musicals that are well known and entertain~g ov_er w9.rks that are more senous m nature or unfamiliar to them.· Sq the balancing act between providing an educational challenge while _ pleasing audiences Icomes into play. Added to the .:0mplexities of educating people simultaneously, is the incentive to remain fmancially stable, but this situation is akin to' what goes on in "Ode to an Auturlzh Laboratory'' by Dwarde Orterp Contributor Part 1: Anthem We Lead the Way, all night and day of strong hearts and minds are we I Teaching what we know, by example we show · to all of those who aspire to be The Point Battalion's pledge Is to stand out on the edge Of any rock, cliff or ledge Our voices we sound Without looking down While rappelling on down to the ground Part II: A kind of summary Working together as a team is often har!ler tihan it may the real world, Hop~r says. All productions, unless they are major theatrical events, have rather stringent financial parameters, so they have to be universal enough to draw crowds. 1 The department's production budget has not increased measurably in several years, according to the chairman. Because production budgets must · depend upon ticket revenues, it is important for each season's bill to attract a sufficient number of ticket buyers. For the theatre and dance faculty, one of this dilemma's biggest drawbacks has been their inability to expose students to multicultural productions or to contemporary plays which are a radical departure from the traditional mode. "Like many arts institutions throughout the country, we face the challenge of educating and training our majors, exposing audiences to contemporary trends in theatre &J!d_}lance as well as the classical theatre repertory," he continues. "This challenge is becoming greater each season. The gap is widening between contemporary trends in theatre and dance and what is viewed as 'entertainment' by many of our audience members. Much of contemporary drama is written in forms that are unfamiliar of many of our audiences, deals with subjects and uses language that many of our audience members might find offensive," he estimates. "However, as faculty we do not believe we can continue to deny our students and · our audiences exposure to what has become the main stream of contemporary theatre practices," Hopper contends. "Much the same. can be said for dance. Contemporary trends in dance are often challenged as 'not being dance.' But the reality is that traditional dance forms are being stretChed to include newer forms of expression through movement arid choreography." Future theatre seasons at UWSP will include works which reflect these new trends, Then get in on the ground floor in our Platoon Leaders Class program for college freshmen, sophomores and juniors.

"Some of our regular audience members may not respond positively, but we hope the majority of our fans will understand that we are fulftlling our roles as educators. "As teachers we have an obligation to train our students in a variety of theatrical forms. Young actors, dancers, technicians and designers need to be stretched; they should be exposed to a broad variety of periods, styles and forms, including Shakespeare, Greek tragedy, contemporary drama and musical theater, plus various styles of choreography an,d dance," Hopper says. "Even though we are making some changes, our audiences also need to know that we will not neglect the more traditional forms of theatre and dance. They will always make up the majority of what we produce. Our goal is always to 'entertain' but our defmition of entertainment goes way beyond 'amusement.' It includes moving our audiences emotionally and intellectually as well," he says.
