Student exchange explored
A group of 14 students and
three faculty members from
Magdeb.u rg, Germany, visited
UWSP to explore exchange opportunities between the two institutions.
The group included six mathematics majors, eight history majors, and professors of mathematics, history and German as a second language.
They are observing classes,
meeting students and touring facilities in the area. A trip to
Madison also was on their itin-
erary.
Since a sister university com-
pact was signed four years ago,
16 German students from Otto
von Guericke Technical University of Magdeburg have studied
. at UWSP during the academic
year, including five this semes-
ter.
Many of the German
visitors at UWSP have been computer science students. About 65
additional students have come for
three weeks each August to hone
their English skills, tour throughout the state, and experience Midwestern culture.
In exchange, several UWSP
student groups have visited
Magdeburg, including groups for
the past six years on the semester study tour to Germany, and ,
Dan Goulet, professor of mathematics and computing at UWSP,
has twice taught at the German
university.
Bob Bowen and Mark Koepke
of international programs and
Mark Seiler of foreign languages
also have been instrumental in
making German contacts, arranging and implementing the
exchange programs.

Stop domestic violence
Story of abuse only one of many
By Stephanie Sprangers
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
Domestic abuse is a large problem growing across the U.S.
Women are living in abusive relationships that sometimes end in
death. One good example is Nicole Brown Simpson.
Zero Tolerance for Domestic
Violence is the message we need to
convey to these victims. This term
was coined by a woman who is a
survivor.
I know someone who was in an
abusive relationship when she was
16 years old. She is now a Junior
in college and she is still fighting
. the negative feelings and the terrible nightmares that come with the situation.
She was innocent and naive. He would hit her for just asking
him an honest question about the relations_h ip.
One night as she was screaming in pain as he hit her, his mother
came to the door. When she pounded and 'asked what was going on
and he told his mother to go away, and unfortunately she did. The
pain and beatings did not and I do not think that his mother will
ever be forgiven.
The guy was smart. He would never hit her in her face. Just her
back, arms, chest, neck and legs, so no one would notice.
She was involved in many athletics, so she was able to make
excuses for the bruises.
Why? Why do women feel that they should make excuses for
these bruises, broken arm& and broken cheekbones? Why are we so
scared to put a stop to this constant violation?
One night the two were fighting and he wanted to leave. Feeling like an invincible 16-year old, she stood in front of the door. In
his fit of rage he pulled out a knife.
He said to her, "if you don't move, I'll stab you." She answered,
"y..eah, right." Then she felt him lean into her, it was like she was
waiting to die.
He puli.ed back and laughed at her, threw her down and said,
"see how stupid you are, it was the other end of the knife." With
that he left her on the floor in tears.
Domestic abuse is a problem this country is facing. This abuse
is not just happening with married couples. It happens to high
school and college students and even in older couples.
If you are currently in an abusive relationship, get help now, it
will change your life forever. If you do not get help, it will change
your life forever, do something for yourself and get out of the situation. Who knows yoa may save a life.

Captive wildlife minor gets the axe
By Nicole Kallio
CoNTRIBUTOR
Natural resources students
looking to gain a minor in captive wildlife management will not
be able to find it- anywhere.
Due to budget constraints
across the board in the university
system, this is only one of many
programs to fall under the axe.
But why would this program
be cut, especially at a university
that boasts the largest natural
resourses facility?
"People in higher places don't
think its a worth while minor,"
said Bronnyn Bulgrin, one ofthe
last students who will obtain the
captive wildlife management minor.
"I want to work in a rehab
center - nobody else has the
minor," said Laura Nelson, another student.
Professor Jim Hardin, advisor
for the minor, confirmed that
UWSP is the only college which
has a program in captive wildlife management "We were sorry
to lose it," he said,
Nelson pointed out that now
that the minor is being made unavailable, students have crowded
into the classes.
"There's no field trips now
because there's too many students
in the classes, because this is the
last time it's offered," she said.
Even with such a great demand for the program, it had to
be cut due to the retirement of
faculty and the lack of funds to
replace them.
"We're offering the two core
courses this semester and next
semester for those who have already declared the minor," said
Hardin.
.
Hardin explained that two
other courses necessary to the
minor were also lost because of
the retirement of professors and
the lack of funds to replace them.
"I would have like to have had
the (captive wildlife management) minor, but they're not offering it anymore," complained
another student.

It's the morning of November 18, a man sits in his treestand
somewhere in Lincoln County. His feet are numb.
He pulls back the sleeve of his jacket to look at his watch - but
it's too dark, he can't see it!
So he presses the Indiglo button; the watch reads: 4:30a.m.
Is this man crazy? Is he out of his mind? Is he mad?!
No, no, no. He's a deer hunter.
The following excerpts are one day in the life of this deer hunter;
his triumphs, and his tragedies.

3:00 a.m. Arrived at treestand. May have been a little early.
Feet went numb an hour later.
4:30a.m. Checked watch.
6:17a.m. A half hour before sunrise. Pulled out my 1995 Wisconsin Hunting Regulations booklet- can't start huntinguntil6:25 a.m.!?
6:25 a.m. Started hunting. Didn't see anything.
7:01a.m. Began to eat a granola bar. Right-hand glove
accidentally fell off of treestand. Had to climb down to
get it. Found out that numb feet don't work to well.
7: 15 a.m. Managed to get back into treestand. Shouldn't have
built it so far up.
9:32 a.m. Hear first gunshot, off to my left.
9:35 a.m. Eight-point buck steps into view 100 feet away. As I
raise my gun, cellular phone rings. Knew I shouldn't
have brought it. It's a buddy, he tells me he shot a sixpointer. I say, big deal, I've got an eight-pointer in my
sights. I hang up and get ready to fire.
9:36 a.m. Eight-pointer disappears. I throw cellular phone down
into the leaves. Shouldn't have done that. Couldn't
find it. Wife's going to kill me.
10:08 a.m. Movement catches my eye. It's a doe. I don't have a
doe tag.
10:09 a.m. Fourteen does walk past my stand. First one must have
been a scout.
11:55 a.m. Have now counted thirty-six does.
12:15 p.m. Climb down from stand to stretch out. Halfway down,
ten-point buck runs past my tree. Gun is slung across
my back. I drop the last six feet to the ground and slip.
Land on my back. Does not feel good.
12:45 p.m. Buddy walks up to me, asks me why I'm lying on my
back, on top of my gun. I curse his family. He tells me
our other buddy just shot a ten-pointer. It starts to rain.
1:30 p.m. Back in the stand. Am freezing to death. I get out the
binoculars to have a look around. Notice a herd of very
large bucks moving across a field toward me. Begin to
get excited.
1:52 p.m. Herd of very large bucks a hundred yards and closing.
Rain changes to snow.
1:55 p.m. Can't decide which buck to shoot.
2:00 p.m. At fifty yards, set sights on fourteen-pointer and
squeeze trigger. Nothing happens. Safety is on. I
quickly push it off. Squeeze trigger again. Nothing
happens. For got to load gun.
2:01p.m. Gun is loaded. Safety is off. Herd ofbucks disappears.
4:34p.m. Deer hunting hours end. Fire gun into air just to make
buddies think I shot at something. They bought it.

Plenty of places around
state to register deer
From Desert Solitaire
"A civilization which destroys what little
remains of the wild, the spare, the original,
is cutting itself off from its origins and be- ,
traying the principle of civilization itself."
Edward Abbey
Eighty-seven Department of
Natural Resources field offices
and cooperative businesses will
register deer for hunters in the
10-county North Central District
during the nine day gun deer
hunt.
The Hunter Choice and Bonus Pemrit anterless deer must be
registered before being removed
from the deer IllaMgement unit
where they were killed.
To save time when registering a deer, fill out the registra-
tion stub, unwrap the carcass tag,
and have your hunting license,
Hunter Choice pemrit or Bonus
Deer pemrit handy when bringing your deer to the registration
station attendant.
Deer can be registered at these
places.within Portage County:
Showboat Tavern
OK Hardware
DNR Ranger Station
Gary's Tap and Grill
Gordy's Conoco
Swan's Oil.
Gun deer season in the sights
Deer hunters will have excellent prospects when the 1995
Wisconsin gun deer season
opens, with wildlife officials estimating the deer herd at approximately 1.5 million animals statewide.
The nine-day gun deer season
opens one-half hour before sunrise on Saturday, No,ember 18.
Hunters should check the 1995
Wisconsin Hunting Regulations
for exact opening times for the
area in which they plan to hunt.
''The deer herd is in very good
shape across the state," said Bill
Mytton, deer and bear specialist
for the Department of Natural Resources.
The winter of 1994-95 was
among the mildest on record for
Wisconsin, resulting in low overwinter deer mortality and excellent fawn production.
These two factors and conservative quotas for many units during the past few seasons produced
a deer population increase, said
Mytton.
With the increase in the deer
herd size, the DNRalso increased
the number of Hunter's Choice
and Bonus Antlerless Deer Permits available this year. These
permits allow hunters to shoot
antlerless deer - primarily does
- in designated deer management units.
The DNR adjusts the harvest
ofantlerless deer annually to keep
deer populations at or near legally
established goals for each of 122
deer management units in the
state.
"Population goals are based
on the land's carrying capacity
and public tolerance for deer,"
said Mytton. "In some areas,
crop damage and deer v~hicle accident rates are major considerations."
About 650,000 hunters are
expected to participate in the gun
deer season. Weather is always a
major factor in hunter success,
Mytton points out, making it difficult to predict harvest levels.
Wildlife managers believe
with good conditions, gun hunt-
ers could harvest as many as
375,000 deer this year, Mytton
says. The deer population was
estimated at about 1.25 million
going into the hunting season last
year, and gun hunters harvested
more than 300,000 deer.
"While the state's abundant
deer herd should provide good
hunting opportunities, the real
goal for most hunters is that they
have a safe and enjoyable hunt,"
said Mytton. "With so many
people participating in the gun
season, it is vital that hunters be
sure of their target, and what lies
behind their target."
The season framework for the
fall ofl995 deer season will be
the same as in past years, but
hunters who also participate in
the archery or muzzleloader deer
seasons have new opportunities
to use antlerless pemrits.
Hunters now have the option
of filling Hunter's Choice and
Bonus Antlerless Deer Pemrits,
during any of these hunting seasons. Hunters who hunt only
during the 9-day gun season are
not affected by these changes.

Creature Custard will be featured at the Mission Coffee House
on Saturday. No, this is not some
sort ofnew dessert. Creature Custard is the name the band that will
be opening up for the highly acclaimed local band, Fuzzdolly.
Even though none of the
members ofFuzzdolly have seen
or heard Creature Custard's show
in person, they are really eJ.:ci.ted
about having the band open for
them.
"We chose Creature Custard
because we heard that they give
a really wild and crazy live
show," said Matt Gillis, who
plays guitar and does vocals for
Fuzzdolly.
The group had listened to
Creature Custard's demo tape
and liked what they heard.
The Madison-based band has
been together for three years during which they have gained a siz-·
able local following. Their first
recording project was a self-released, six-song cassette entitled,
"Waiting for Sandwiches".
The group recently released a
demo tape, " Grocery Store",
which includes three of their
newest songs.

The Pointer wrestling team
has never been afraid to step on
the mat against the best wrestlers
in the nation. This season has
started with Stevens Point already
facing off and beating some of
those wrestlers.
La-st Saturday witnessed
Point winning some to~gh
matches against top schools such
as UW-Madison,UW-ParJ.cside,
Wartburg, and Marquette at the
Spieth Anderson Open, held in
Stevens Point.
"The Spieth Anderson (Open
Tournament) last Saturday is one
of the toughest tournaments
around. Sometimes it is harder
for one of our wrestlers to win
this tournament than it is to win
the national tournament," coach
Marty Loy said about Saturday's
meet.
UWSP placed seven wrestlers
in the top four at the Gold Division.
Returning All-American
Peny Miller (HWT) led the way
by being the only champion for
the Pointers. Seniors Brian
Stamper (134 lbs) and Kevin
Knaus (158lbs) each captured
third. Chris Jones (134), Pat
Knoch (150), Jamie Hildebrandt
(167), Joe Rens (190), and Joe
Trawitzki (HWT) took fourth
place.
The Pointers were also sue-'
cessful in the Silver Division for
freshmen wrestlers. Three freshmen made the finals. Eric

DEAR ABBEY GONE HORRIBLY WRONG

· For those of you who may wonder
where Pat "the Horoscope Guy" is this
week, don't work your underpants into
a bundle. I have him safely locked
away in my closet. If he can handle it,
he should be back after Thanksgiving
Break. So far. his training is going
l'Irl~~ welL Every time he misbehaves, I just
"bring in the clowns" and suddenly he's
kissing my boots. When it pleases me,
~StP_'ilJ I allow him to wear interesting clothes
and provide him with plenty of exercise. Plus, he makes a nice conversation piece when guests come to visit...
As for The Eclectic, they're out doing my dirty laundry and polishing my
bronze paperboy. It's amazing how one
crack of my whip inspires such teamwork!(hmmm ... maybe I should hold Pat
hostage more often?)
.FOR THE POINTER BY VALENTINA I<AQJATa;H
Dear Mistress~
(I mean) Tracey,
I have this little problem that
has turned into quite a sticky situation. I don't even know how to
start telling you about it, but here
goes. Before Halloween I was
approached by this (I thought)
harmless group of do gooders
who pleaded and begged me to
borrow them some of my playthings out of my dun~9A (sorry)
I mean, my basement to use in their
haunted house.
Since Halloween is my favorite time of year, I agreed and let
them use everything. My problem is that it is now quite a few
weeks after Halloween and they
haven't returned my "stuff."
What should I do?
Left without any fun,

Ifyour beau likes women with
