Comm week brings communication in politics
Local legislators agree on the importance of constituency involvement
by Sarah L. Newton ·
Editor-in-Chief
Communication in Politics
was the topic of discussion
when Senate Majority Leader
David Helbach and Assemblyman Stanley Gruszynski
visited campus earlier this week
as part of Communication week
1992.
Sponsored by PRSSA, Helbach and Gruszynski were
joined Monday evening by
UWSP's Special Consultant to
the Chancellor for Equity and
Affirmative Action, Judy
Goldsmith.
"Politics is communication,"
stated Gruszynski early in the
program, "Whether it's in committee work, one on one, or on
the assembly floor, success in
politics is measured by an
ability to communicate ideas."
Goldsmith pointed out the
issue of the "American public's
cynicism with the electoral
process," and questioned the
legislators about "the challenges
of delivering information to and
from their constituencies."
Helbach believes ·a low level
of awareness is the reason for
the feelings of powerlessness
and lack of faith among citizens.
"The public makes very little
distinction between the state
and national levels of govern-
ment," he said. "There are surely negative implications to the
anti-politician attitude."
Helbach notes the media as
being a large part of the communication problem in ·election
years. "The problem with the
media today is that it sets the
agenda," he said.
To Gruszynski, satisfaction
with being a politician has a lot
to do with effective communication.
"Remaining fresh and interested in your material makes
you an effective communicator," he said. "It's important for me to gain the
collective wisdom of my constituency and then make my best
judgements."
Gruszynski also labeled societal changes as reasons for poor
communication between
citizens and legislators.
"Fifty years ago we were, for
the most part, a farming com~
munity. The change to an industrial base has had an
unsettling effect that's left
. young people without connection to church, community, or
family," he suggests.
"People have become restless
because their community
stability is disappearing," said
Gruszynski.
In addition to the proposed
media problem, Goldsmith dis-

cussed the negative stereotyping effects of television
advertising, particularly-during
election campaigns.
"Rather than focus on real
problems--kids killing kids,
elderly abandonm.ent, they're
worried about whether Clinton
inhaled," he concluded.
Legislator accessibility was
also a prime discussion topic
among the speakers. "People
seem to be satisfied with their
powerlessness," said Grus-
StudentS challenge educational environment
SGA' s "Face to Face" discusses student opinion
by Eric Meyer
Copy Editor
Improving education and
strengthening the educational
environment were common
themes of student questions
fired at administrators during
the second annual Face to Face
meeting held a week ago yesterday.
The event combined a dinner
and discussion session, and
gave student leaders the opportunity to ask questions of the six
member panel.
The panel included Bill
Meyer, acting assistant chancel. lor for student life; Randy
Alexander, housing director;
David Hirsh, a UW-Oshkosh
student and member of the
Board of Regents; Herbert
Grover, state public superintendent of public schools; Gary
Alexander, UWSP faculty
senate chairperson and Chancellor Keith Sanders. ·
On the issue of minority
faculty hiring, Grover emphasized the Regents' commit-
ment to making sure that the
UW- System administration
was not composed entirely of
white males.
Grover cited the presence of
two women and two minority
members on the Board of
Regents, and noted that there are
several female chancellors as
well as a new UW-System president, Katherine Lyall, who is
female.
"I would suggest that right
r.ow there are more women in
tht: administrative positions
than in the 17 years I've been on
the UW Board of Regents," said
Grover.
"Fifty percent of the people
who came to UWSP last year for
faculty and academic staff positions were women," added
Sanders. "I'm very proud of this
place," he said, "because we are
in the whitest copgressional distnct in the Unites States and
we're setting the pace in hiring
and retaining women and
minorities on our faculty aild
staff."
"The number of people
. (women and minority members)
that are out there, JJnfortunately,
is not that great. I wish it was
larger," said Student Regent
David Hirsh in exploring the
problem. "For a variety of
reasons people (women and
minority members) don't decide
to get involved."
Questioned about the realignment of student life administration and the university's Quality
Reinvestment
Program,
Sanders responded, "The basic
principle is this. When we have
a choice on this campus of cutting student services or instruction, or alternatively cutting
administrative costs, we're
going to cut administrative costs
and keep the money a5 close to
you for instruction as we can."
Sanders was pressed by one
student on the issue of high
· school students' accessibility to
an education at UWSP, given
higher enrollment standards.
"We want to pick those students who·are most likely to do
well here. . As it tunis out, the
two best predictors of who will
'come, and move expeditiously
through our program, are rank in
high school class, and second,
ACT scores. Third, is a whole
group of intangibles."
"We'll get 3,800-4,000 applicants for about 1,400 positions in our freshman class.
How do we make these
choices?'' asked Sanders. "I
don't know how to make those
decisions any better than that,"
he continued.
Gary Alexander suggested
that students always have the
option of going to a two or tour
year school elsewhere and then
transferring tO UWSP, an established student, during their
junior year.
Other topics of concern to students were the length of time it
takes an education major to
graduate, UWSP's role in
promoting environmenral
awareness, and promoting
tolerance of homosexuals in the
residence hall setting.
"The programs in the
residence halls, to a large degree, depend on the interests of
continued on page 12
zynski. ·"Our system is curren~­
ly designed to embrace such
apathy."
"Accessibility is important tc
make constituents know they
have a hand in the decision
making process," he said.

Housing
demands
private
phones
for fall
On-campus residents who are
returning this fall will have to
provide their own telephones
because of a new policy implemented recently by University
Housing and approved by RHA.
"We don't want to be in the
telephone business," said
Randy Alexander, Director of
University Housing.
"If we provide phones, we have
to buy them from the telephone
office here on campus and they
are pretty expensive," he said.
Alexander argues that it will be
cheaper for students "if they
provide their own phones." But
he does not know "the way to
mathematically figure out what
the saving is."

"The telephones would last

said Bruce Staal, Director of

Wachowiak says the annual

The total charge back, which
comes from the room fee, last

Should students be allowed to view evals? show commitment
Contributor
to budget
by Eric Meyer
Instructor evaluation forms
should not be made public.
Making them public would
defeat their primary purpose:
To allow faculty, experts in their
chosen field, the right to make
retention and tenure decisions
on behalf of their own faculty
members.
Students often argue that they
should be able to read the
evaluations of an instructor
before taking his or her course.
By doing this, they could then
put instructors in rank order so
as to select the best available
person to fit their peeds for a
given course.
.
To make the inherent problem
with this clearer, let's stereotype
students a bit. All students
would like an "A" in every class,
if possible. They also want instructors who are readily available, prepared for class,
organized and knowledgeable.
Opinions vary on assignments, grading ·and attendance
policies, but the bottom line is
fairness and leniency.
Because there is a general consensus among students about
what makes instructors
desirable, students will steer
clear of instructors who do not
fit their collective mold of what
an instructor should be.
This leaves the least desirable
instructor with no students.
Without minimum enrollments,
classes are cancelled and eventually an instructor is out of a
job.
Should students have that
much power? Are they more
adept at judging a qualified instructor than faculty from that
instructor's department who are
experts in the field?
Is good teaching the only
criterion by which an instructor
should be evaluated? What
about research ability and
scholarly contribution to the
field? Is that something students can fairly evaluate? By
determining who gets retained,
students would indirectly make
these complicated decisions.
These questions deserve
thought.
Standard campus evaluation
forms don't answer the question
of whether an instructor is
"easy." In fact, they don't
answer many of the common
questions about course difficulty, grading procedures and ~­
tendance that many students
want to know about.
Take a look at the standard
form some time, (as I did before
I wrote this) and you will be
amazed at how unhelpful it is.
You say you want a quality
education? Perhaps part of your
education is learning to deal
with the variety of professors
and personalities tliat make up
the university faculty.
Turn evaluations over to students and they will eventually
define the scope of who we
retain ·enough that we may as
well hire dynamic speakers,
_give every student an "A" and
do away with evaluations.
Let's not turn faculty evaluations into the equivalent of a pro
football scouting report. The
evaluation process currently in
place may leaY.e something to be
desired, yet it has survived the
trials of many years.
Let peers keep peers in
check. It's the best way.
American bashing rings true
Auto industry base for competition
by Kristin Hoffman
Contributor
Us? Lazy? How dare those
Japanese say that about we
Americans!
They dare because we
Americans have lazy contests.
It's true. We sit around with our
friends competing to determine
who's the laziest. We take pride
in being the worst procrastinator
in our circle of friends.
It's all around us: "I waited
'til the last minute to do my
paper, so I stayed up all last
night to finish it." Usually
,someone tries to beat that by
saying they just printed their
paper out five minutes before
class. We brag about being lazy
when we should be trying to get
ahead on our,work.
Oh, I forgqt, that's not cool.
Sorry.
But how dare those Japanese
-call us lazy!
I passed a group of guys. the
other day and I overheard one
say he was too lazy to drop his
computer class and now he's
flunking. That's double laziness. First he was too lazy to fill
out a form and then he was to
lazy to study for the course.
But how dare they call us lazy!
You know, those Japanese
have taken over the auto industry in the United States and
they won't even sell our cars in
Japan. Back up! Wrong! They
try to sell our cars, but no one
wants to buy them. Know why?
First of all, because we do not
make cars with steering wheels
on the right side, the side they
drive on, and secondly, because
~...
.
there are few American garages
to fix American cars. If we want
them to buy our cars, we have to
make it convenient for them.
So an I saying we should burn
the American flag and boo the
"But American" slogan? Absolutely not-it's important to
support our economy. But of
equal importance is the realization that Japan is not at fault for
our economic difficulties. Who
is? Those of us who won the
procrastination contest.
Why do we get so mad, then,
when the Japanese tell us we are
lazy? Because on the whole it's
true and the truth hurts when it
comes from someone else.
Consequently, the Japanese
are becoming the targets of persecution once again. In San
Francisco, hate letters and
threats are being sent to.
Japanese, who are American
citizens. In Detroit, people with
Japan-made cars have to park in
the last rows of parking lots.
The Japanese have pinpointed
our weakness, but in each case
have quickly retracted their
statements. Why? Because
their statements are lies?
Doubtful. Because we are bigger than they are? More likely.
In any case, realize we are the
source of our own problems and
the only way to prove the
Japanese wrong is to begin to
work harder and care more
about our country. I hope we
can do this. If not, the United
States will not be as great as it
was, and is today. This will
directly affect us and our
children in a way that will not
make us proud to.be Americans.

This week's article about
SGA's funding and subsequent
veto of $2,000 from the Theatre
Department's budget shows the
tension that often occurs between student groups and those
who hold the purse strings.
This isn't just a conflict between theatre students needing
money for one ofthe best theatre
programs in the U.W. system
and SGA saying "No."
Both sides have legitimate arguments. Taking productions
money·away from the Theatre
Department is tantamount to
taking money for field studies
and microscopes from CNR.
At the same time, SGA has
responsibility not to saddle next
years student body with a
carryover deficit.
Money is tight, and getting
tighter for education. We must
stop squabbiing amongst ourselves and take the fight to those
who can effect the change: the
Board of Regent_s, the legislature, the governor. .
I sat in awe and with a deep
respect for Mr. Brehm and
others who stated their case eloquently.
They renewed my faith in
student's ability to empower
themselves. If we all showed
the commitment the theatre students had April 2nd, and SGA
members show every week to
the aforementioned, chimge can
be made.
There is a spark with hi each of
us. We need only to act upon it.

I'm not upset with W.P.S., I

Too' many rental units, such

poorly maintained, which
results in massive energy loss.
As a student, I have ak
neither

Therefore it is up to the
landlords to ~ake their rental
units more energy efficient, so
that not only will the tenants
have lower utility bills, but the
landlord will be helping the environment by reducing the
- amount of wasted energy.
I believe that with cooperation
between tenant and landlord,
these rental units can become
more energy efficient, which
not only improves the living
conditions for the tenants but,
can also increase the property
value for the landlord.

tion violation of ·
constitu-tional
rights?
Dear Editor:
I would like to address the ar-ticle in last weeks Pointer
regarding the confiscations of
traffic signs from student
rooms.
·I feel that local law enforcement as well as university officials are way out of line.
To come into a persons room
and confiscate a traffic sign if
they cannot produce a receipt of
ownership is ridiculous. If you
do not .have a receipt there is an
automatic presumption of guilt.
One of our most basic constitutional rights is being violated: innocent until proven
guilty.
What about those of us who
have obtained official signs
legitimately through public auction or private sale?
Granted, removal of these
signs is dangerous. However, it
does not constitute the violation
of the innocent until proven
guilty right or an illegal search
and/or seizure.
This violation is a travesty and
should not be tolemted at this institution.

Dear Editor:
Recycling is becoming a
household word. Many of us
think of aluminum cans and
paper in terms of monetary
profit. However, the significance of recycling goes well
beyond the dollar sign.
Many of us still live a throw
away life style; now we have to
learn a new one. If we are to
save our natural resources, as
well as our environment, we
must all do our part in the recycling process.
In most of the University buildings there are four containers
labeled aluminum, paper,_plas-
tic and waste. People on campus, for one reason or another,
are having difficulty disposing
of their waste in the proper container. As a result, maintenance
personnel must spend extra time
sorting.
Furthermore, materials that could have been recycled are
contaminated and have become
unusable. If we are to preserve
our world we must all do our
part in the recycling process.
Please take a moment to improve our future by sorting your
trash.

Then there was the green you wore as you
roaring helicopters and speeding M-1 tanks The green
that hid you from the "enemy" in rugged terrain. And
the green that represented' your friends' envy about the
skills you were learning- in computers, electronics,
communications and other technical fields.

Pointers win last game of doubleheader 12-0
Lose first game of twin bill to St. Norbert's 2-0
ball. We had guys on first and
third and then Kohnle rips a
triple to bring them both in. We
could feel everybody relax once
those first two runs came in,"
Otte said.

second inning when Krug's
single brought in Ben Smekjal,

One of two wishes came true
in the second game of a
doubleheader for Coach Guy
Otte of the Pointer baseball
team.
The Pointers erupted for 11
hit~ and 12 runs in a shutout toavoid a sweep from St.
Norbert's, who blanked the
Pointers in the first game of the
·
doubleheader 2-0.

game absence - to the delight of
Otte. But the one wish all
coaches in the Wisconsin area
hope to come true is for nice
weather conditions. A wish that
is not under Otte 's control to
come true.
"We try not to make excuses
but the weather has hurt us.
Everybody is in the same boat
though and everybody has been
set back by the terrible weather
conditions," Otte said.
Senior pitcher Rob Wolff,
who started the game and
pitched two innings, got the victory to improve his record to 3-
2.
Scott Soderberg and Pete Clark
pitched the final three innings of
the shortened game due to the
10-run rule. The three pitchers
gave up only three hits.

In the first inning of the second
game the Pointers scored three
runs, the first time a Pointer had
crossed the plate since the first
game of a doubleheader at
Whitewater on April 11 - a span
of 26 innings.
Junior shortstop Ken Krug led
off the first inning with a single.
He stole second and went to
third on a passed ball by
Norbert's catcher Rob Kinnard.
After designated hitter Mike
Helmuth drew a base on balls,
senior first baseman Matt
Kohnle belted a triple, driving in
Krug and Helmuth. Senior
second baseman Dave Schuett
brought Kohnle in on a sacrifice
fly.
"Kenny Krug batting leadoff
in the second game was very
pivotal., He got on, stole second

The big Pointer outburst came
in the third inning when they
scored seven runs, two coming
in on a Smekjal triple and two
more on a Wagner double. At
· the end of three innings UWSP
was up 11-0.
Point finished their scoring
barrage in the fourth inning
when Schuett smashed a solo
home run to open the inning.
Otte was pleased with the hitting his team displayed, especially after their long drought of
runless games.
- "Hitting can be contagious,

everybody started to hit - it
opened the door," Otte said.

shutout the Pointers 2-0 on three
hits. Tim Gladosky rapped the
only extra base hit for the
Pointers with a double. Wagner
and Jay Krcmar had the only
other hits for Point.
Travis Rosenbaum suffered
the loss for UWSP, falling to 13. Dave Bohr, Brian Quinnell
and Shawn Schultz also saw
some time on the mound in the
first game.
With a big weekend of games
coming up, Otte wanted to give
as many innings as possible to
his pitchers. Despite the long
layoff between games, the
pitchers did very well, giving up
a total of two walks in both
games.

Baseball's season
full ,o f new looks
· •
•
by Mike McGill
Sports Writer
As I woke up a little bit earlier
than I had wanted to on Easter
Sunday, I stumbled through my
living room. I rubbed the sand
out of my eyes and cocked my
head to the left, zeroing in on the
easter baskets on our coffee
table.
How nice. After years of being
passed over, good 'ol Peter Cottontail remembered me and my
brother this year. (Hey, you
want to remind St. Nick, Pete?)
I don't know what made him
resume his gift-giving at my
house, maybe it was because I
cracked a 3.0 GPA last
semester, but hey, I'mnotcomplaining.
And just like in the good old
days, aS a wide-eyed youngster,
the Easter Bunny left some jellybeans, chocolate bunnies, and
...baseball cards.
Baseball cards? Yes! And just
in time for the start of the new
season!
But Murray's already jumped
ship to the Mets along with
Bonilla, Bret Saberhagen and
Willie Randolph.
Other big off-season acquisitions include Eric Davis to the
., Dodgers, Kevin Mitchell to the
Mariners, George Bell to the
White Sox, Frank Viola to the
Red Sox, Jack Morris to the Jays ·
and John Smiley to the Twins to
name a few.
All of the confusion and
frustration subsides though~ as
baseball season opens and one
tends to get caught up in spring
fever, which will eventually
fade away after about 50-60
games, the first third of the
season.
Now the confusion of player
translocations transforms into
half the fun, switiching team
loyalties and monitoring how
well the players perform in their
new environments.
A few teams have adjusted
their look for '92. The Expos'
new uniforms look sharp, as do
the Phillies' (minus the new and
"My favorite dark horse of the year goes to
our very own Milwaukee Brewers. Hey, I've
just got a feeling."
As I thumbed through-my six
packs (four Topps and two Fleer
for you avid card collectors out
there) I noticed a few cards that
were already outdated.
Dave Winfield, Bobby Bonilla, Garry Sheffield and Kirk
Gibson are all on new teams
now. I also saw players who are
demanding multiyear, multimillion dollar contracts, like Roger ,
Clemens, Darryl Strawberry
and Ruben Sierra.
It got me thinking. $7 million
a year for Ryne .Sandbery?
Wow. The free agent market
has blown salaries out of
proportion and is getting players
to switch teams more often than
their underwear.

Murray's arrivals at L.A. are
fresh news.

but I personally preferred the
Cardinals' red caps to their current black offerings.
Now for division predictions.
It goes like this. The Mets in the
NL East, the Reds (or the
Dodgers) in the NL West, the always tough Athletics in the AL
West, and the Red Sox in the AL
East.
My favorite dark horse of the
year goes to our very own Milwaukee Brewers. Hey, I've just
got a feeling.
It's been 10 years since the
Brewers reached the World
Series and they could overachieve and new manager Phil
Gamer could get all the credit
for what ex-manager Tom
Trebelhom has put together in
the past few years. If they could

Adeline
adds spice to life at UWSP
.•
by Kevin Thays
Advertising Manager
For students who need a
cheerful gre~ting to bring the
warm feeling of home back into
their lives, a visit to the Wooden
Spoon to see Adeline Hintz
might be just the remedy.
Adeline, better known as
"Addy," is lead line server at the
Wooden Spoon in the University Center. She brings to the
position a sample of her personality, which not only ftlls
stomachs, it also fllls hearts.
.
Adeline astonishes many stu. · • ·• , dents with her ability to remember the names of over 1600
students that eat at.the university
dining centers. She has
mastered the link of making new
friends. ·
"There is something very special about getting to know
people's names and wishing .
them a good day. They become
part of me and I become part of
them," she said.
According to Adeline, she
remembers people's names by
associating them in her mind
with other people, places and
things that she is already
familiar with.
"So many sets of

resem6le eacli otfier. I feam to
pick out little things about each
person to remember them by,"
she said.
Many students know Adeline
from when she worked at Debot
Center. She worked behind the
scenes in the Deb9t salad
department for over seven
years. Her popularity exploded
with students between September 1989 and March 1990 when
she was student cashier.
"I didn't see her for a long
time after she left her position at
Debot," said Lisa Herman.
"Theri one day I ate dinner at the
Wooden Spoon and I was so impressed by how she could
remember our names after all
that time."
"I like to be thought of by
students as their mom away
from home. I still continue to
ask names. If you treat people
with respect and care for them,
they'll come back," Adeline explained.
·
Besides being a mother to
1600 UWSP students, Adeline
also has a family of her own.
She is married to her husband
Len and is a proud mother of
three married children.
At age 52 (Adeline recently
celebrated a birthday), she has
more spirit than most people
half her age. Embroidering,
dancing to polka and waltzes,
reading magazines, and dressing up and decorating for
holidays are a few of her
favorite things to do.
"I'd often .d ress up with
holiday costumes and decorate
my register to bring spirit to the
students," she said. In the past,
Adeline dressed like a pilgrim
for Thanksgiving and Mrs.
Santa for Christmas. She also

Communication is key for
South Asia Society prez.
by Meredith Medland
Contributor
"International students often
tell me that I am different and
American students ask me why I
am different: · however J don't
feel different," stated
Sally ·Jane Rimple, 32 year old
non-traditional senior.
Rimple is president of South
Asia Society, a student organization established in 1989
to foster .global family ideals
and promote an exchange ofculture, friendship and understanding among members and
the community.
The 20 members of South
Asia Society are getting ready
for the Fifth Festival of India to
be held at SPASH on September
17.
The Festival of India brings
cultures together to produce
something better than any other
one culture could produce. The
project provides Indian dinner
and entertainment for over 800
participants. so that they may
pursue an education and become active leaders in the India
of the future.
Money raised by the Festival
of India educates the disadvantaged, widowed and
divorced women, so that they
may become active leaders in
the India of the future. It also
provides a yearly scholarship at
the Shrimati P.N. Doshi College
in Bombay, India.
Rimple has learned a lot about
communication through her ex-
periences with this culturally
diverse group,
"We can never communicate
enough. Often meanings and
interpretations of things I say
get confused," s~id Rimple.
Rimple fmds that being the
only American in the group can
sometimes cause problems.
" Americans are often seen as
the leader and even though they
would like to see themselves in
leadership, often they don't
know how," Rimple said.
Rimple has been challenged
throughout the semester to
change the idea held by the
group that she is the American
so she is the leader.
To avoid this, Rimple encourages input from everyone
and tries to delegate responsibility.
"Even though they (international students) are silent they
are thinking, they have concerns
like any other person, they are
dedicated, and they do want to
be members."
Rimple will graduate this year
with a major in Political Science
and International Studies. She
alst> works at Shopko and St.
Michael 's hospital.
Next year's president, Jamil
Hussain,
comes
from
Bangladesh, and will be the oldy
representative of this country in
the organization.
Upcoming events include a

Fun with nitecrawlers
by Buck
Je~ngs
Outdoors Editor
A man is driving his car early
Sunday morning. He pumps his
brakes helplessly as · his car
slides through an intersection,
he narrowly escapes an accident
The roads on this Easter Sunday morning were slippery indeed. Not because of snow, ice
or oil, but because of worms.
Yep, like Jesus Christ himself
returning from the grave, the
weekend rains -and warm
weather combined to drive
hoards of night crawlers from
their earthly catacombs.
Droves of earthworms flocked
to the warm asphalt, creating at
·- once an a-bon-danza for local
wildlife and a serious driving
hazard.
Where are these worms in late
summer? When catfishing and
carp tournaments force the
angler to pay up to $2.00 for 12
lousy worms?
The frugal and opportunistic
angler can capitalize on this
worm "run" and stockpile the
fridge with a healthy supply of
crawlers.
"But Buck," you ask "how can
I cash in on this worm bonanza?" Well, the midwest worm
enthusiast simply cannot compete with the sprawling, million
acre worm ranches of the west,
where stetsoned "worm-boys"
get paid to do nothing but rope
and wrangle wily worms.
However with a little bit of
foresight and a minimum investment one can insure a· good
supply of crawlers to last
throughout the summer months.
WHAT TO USE:
The frrst things you need to do
is learn how and where to pick .
worms. A flashlight with a red
lens or red cellophane taped
over the lens and a coffee can
are standard worm pickin'
equipment Take the plastic lid
from the coffee can and-press it
onto the bottom lip of the can.
This will deaden the sound of
the can being placed on the
sidewalk.
WHERETO GO:
The sidewalk is an important
component of pickin' night
crawlers. The concrete seems to
disperse the vibration of your
footsteps allowing you to sneak
up on your annelid prey.
Good worming soil are slightly
basic in PH , black humus versus sand , should have good tilth
as well as worm food available.
Worm food incidentally consists of fallen leaves and grass
clippings.
Therefore the presence or absence ofa sidewalk or other hard
-
surface coupled with the proper
soil type determines the best
worming grounds.
The best worming grounds are
often golf courses and, macabre
though it may sound,
cemeteries. When worming in a
cemetery, try wearing a crazy
latex halloween mask. That
coupled with your red flashlight
can provide hours of amusement for unsuspecting passers- .
by. "A boogie-boogie-boogie!"
Once you have found a good
spot for picking, you should
have no problem picking up to
300 crawlers in a good night. A
warm, moist, spring evening is
an excellent time to pick

Forward."
- Wisconsin began itsperegrine
falcon recovery program in
1987 and has since released a
total of 62 birds into the Wisconsin landscape. There have
been as many as four active
nests in one year, but the most
active and successful is the one
on the First Wisconsin Center~
Milwaukee.
"There is a pair nesting now at
the Milwaukee site and they
have four eggs in the nest and
there appears to be another pair
nesting in Sheboygan Wisconsin Power and Light Company
power plant," Gieck added.
Fifteen peregrines were
released at La Crosse in 1991
and plans are to release that
many there again this year. The
County Building at Racine will
be used as a release site for the
first time this year beginning in
1
June.
"People are welcome to come
to the Capitol square area to
watch the peregrines, but they
will not be lulowed up in the
Capitol to watch as it could disturb the nest," Gieck said.
Funding for the peregrine falcon recovery program in Wisconsin comes from the
Endangered Resources Fund tax
checkoff on the state income tax
form, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, the Tympanuchus
Cupido Pinnatus (prairie chicken) Society and donations from

A pair of peregrine falcons
have chosen the State Capitol
building as their nesting site
and--so far--have produced one
egg, reports Charlene "Charlie"
Gieck, Department of Natural
Resources nongame biologist.
The pair have taken up
residence in a peregrine nesting
box built and placed atop the
Capitol by Ken Vind, astate carpenter. Two peregrines attempted nesting at the Capitol in
1991, but nested on a sloping
ledge on the comer of the dome
and the egg rolled off and was
destroyed.
"This year a new female is involved in the nest attempt,"
Gieck said. "The female is a
one-year-old named Alula who
has come to Wisconsin from a
Minnesota nest where she was
raised in 1991. We've not been
able to read the leg band on the
male yet, but will soon."
Peregrines lay up to four eggs
in a clutch, but Gieck's doesn't
known what this one-year-old
bird will produce. Incubation
takes about 30 days, with hatching expected sometime in early
May.
"We're not disturbing this pair
at all," Gieck said. "I do plan to
inspect the nest sometime in the
next week and a half to see if
more eggs were produced."
The nest box is located on the ·
southeast comer of the Capitol
and is visible from street level.
"We will be hiring an intern
through a donation from the
Wisconsin Power and Light
Company," Gieck said.- "This
intern will be around the Capitol

The state's head archaeologist
will visit the regional archaeological center at UWSP
this week to tour facilities and
meet with faculty and students.
Robert Birmingham, State Ar- ,.

on Wednesday, April 22 for a

early in 1991.
One of nine regional centers
throughout the state, it is
directed by John .Moore of the
anthropology faculty and
funded by the State Historical

Moore is available to lead

YOUR WORM FARM:
There are many formulas for
worm farms. They usually consist of a foam cooler and a mixture of soil (peat is too acidic). I
feel however that the best solution is to buy a kit from the
Magic Worm Bedding Co. in
Amherst Junction WI. Local
businesses carry the kits and
they work quite well.
The Magic Work Bedding Co.
was started by George Sroda the
self proclaimed "Worm Czar"
who first peddled his products
from the bed of a Model "T"
Ford pickup.
The .kits come complete with a
box, bedding, and worm food.
The kits should be stored in the

for potential soil scientists.
In addition, Moore is involved
in curating materials in the
university's artifact collection,
identifying the objects and
bringing them up to National
Park Service standards.
Birmingham and Riggs' visit
to campus is part of statewide
tours to all centers supported by
the society. So far, UWSP has
received $15,000 in annual
funding from the historical
society and about $6,500 in

recovery goal is to have 20 nesting pairs of falcons in the state.
"Historically, Wisconsin had
20 to 25 nesting pairs, mostly on
the bluffs along the Mississippi
River," Gieck said. "Now we're
trying to get urban peregrines
established so that their young
will reoccupy those historic
sites."
Before recovery efforts began
the last peregrine was seen in
Wisconsin
in
1964.
Wisconsin's first nesting occurred in 1986, when peregrines
released from Minnesota chose
the Mississippi River bluffs near
Alma and Maiden Rock.

Hopefully, you acted locally
and thought globally this past
Earth Day, April 22. Why not
take your local actions to other
global locations?
There are countless numbers
of environmentally related
volunteer opportunities available all over this big blue planet
just waiting for someone like
you.
Jenn Soule, an Environmental Education major, is one such
student that will be taking the
challenge of volunteering her
skills to a foreign land and
people. -Soule will be traveling
to Japan this September to teach
English as a missionary. Soule
said, "It will be exciting to travel
and learn about another culture." She will have ample opportunity to experience the
culture and landscape of Japan
in the 30 months she plans to
spend there.
Being exposed to a culture
other than our own can only be
beneficial to solving global environmental problems. You'll
fmd that most of these experiences cannot pay you monetarily,
but they are invaluable travel
opportunities. If helping out the

Brehm however, believes
there were ,other reasons why
the budget was cut.
"All 12 senators that voted in
favor of the budget knew it was
a 26 percent increase when they
approved it," he said. "They felt
we deserve~ the money, and it
was taken from us anyway."
According to one SGA
senator, B"tts-Townsend took
the budget into her own hands
because she "felt the senators
were not acting in a rational
manner and were swayed by
emotion from the University
Theatre students' pleas."
Despite the fact that the budget
raise was v~toed, Brehm and the
ot~er Theatre students do not
regret protesting the cut.
"It was noble cause," said
Brehm. "I would go back and
fight again today if it would
make a difference. Every stu- ,
dent should fight for their rights,
even if they don'talways win."

Grant McDonald, a junior from
Cowichan Bay, ~riti~h Colum-,
bia, has been named captain of
the 92-93 Pointer hockey team.
The position of captain is voted
on by the players only. "What
makes this such a special honor
is that it's decided by your peers
and those are the people you
want to respect you the most."
McDonald, voted the most improved player this year, also was
named a Wisconsin State
University Conference scholar
athlete. He made the National
Dean's list with a 3.63 grade
· point average in managerical
accounting. McDonald was
named to the 13-man academic
all-Northern Collegiate Hockey
Association team as well.
After graduating from
Cowichan Senior Secondary,
McDonald went to play for the
Nanaimo Clippers of the British
Columbia Junior Hockey
League.
· In his final · seaspn with the
~ Clippers, 88-89, he scored 36
goals, 16 of which came on the
powerplay, and added 62 assists
in 55 games.
"What makes this such
- a special honor is that
. it'·s decided by your
peers and those ar~
the people you want to
respect you the most."
- Grant McDonald
Before coming to UWSP, McDonald married girlfriend Jill in
August of 89. The two of them
have resided in Stevens Point
ever since.
McDonald played in just one
game his first season after
having his arm cut by a skate in
practice.
Grant saw consistent playing
time his second season with the
Pointers. This past year was _
McDonalds' s finest as a Pointer.
He was a mainstay on the
Pointer blueline in his first
season as a defenseman. "This
last year I think I found my role
on this club. The more I played,
the more confidenc~ I felt in my
abilities."
"I'm really looking fo~ward to
next year. The people we lost
this year are quality people and
players but, we still have the
personnel to be right in the thick
of things next year.'r
After graduating next May,
