e had come to sit on the clay floor of a small church made of long wood planks, getting ready to hike through the area Wwhere our friend Juan and his family lived. Soon the church was lined with many of the indigenous who farmed the mountains and made their homes in this remote community. The church had a small altar set on two saw horses. Two statues, one of the Blessed Mary, and the other of Christ, rested there, along with prayer and song books translated from Spanish into the native dialect of Tzeltal. There were no pews, no stained glass windows; only a thin bench that ran around the walls of the chapel. I wrote in my journal early the next morning, "There is so much to learn here. Nothing seems totally explained. When you start to find some answers, you realize they are only part of a much larger equa­ is one take students to tion.

UWM rides for free

The new plan to alleviate parking problems on campus seems to be « a step in the right direction. The plan would provide the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's 25,000 full and part- time students with unlimited use of Milwaukee 4 Public Transit buses during the school year. * Along with the unlimited use of the transit system, the plan calls for the building of two new Park and Ride lots with freeway flyer service * directly to UWM. Increased bus service to accommodate the estimated -» 6,000 students who live 3-4 miles from campus which account for about 1000 cars, is also part of the plan. There would be six local, no transfer, direct to UWM bus routes.

• On the surface, this plan sounds foolproof. Free bus riding with more convenient routes that get to UWM quickly would attract a varie­ f « ty of students who are sick of looking for a place to park, are nervous about the wear and tear driving to school does to a car, are sick of moving their cars every hour to avoid getting a parking ticket and for * those who just do not want to drive in the ice and snow that winter brings. While these are benefits, there is the problem of who is going to pay for all this. As the bus service is now, if a student buys a weekly bus pass every week of school, he/she spends about $300 a year. With over 80 percent of UWM students being commuters, though not necessarily bus users, a good many students could take advantage of the free bus riding. It will cost each student $25 a semester to run this program. This means $25 from every student, which is basically a tuition hike. What would make this feesable is if students wouldn't have to pay this extra $25. The Student Government has been working to get state funds to pay for the program or at least to pay for a part of it. If some deal could be worked out and the program could be partially funded, it might be worth $12.50. The question that arises from all those who do not like to ride the bus or from those who walk is "Why should I have to pay anything for free bus service that I will not use?" Advantages like more parking and free bus service to anywhere, Perspective since the bus passes would not be limited to bus service to and from school, would be there for those who do not bus to school. Many still do not like the idea of paying for something they do not normally use, which is certainly a valid point. However, if it is conveni­ ent and free, or at least very cheap, they will probably start thinking SA's ability to reason about using it, thus decreasing the parking problem. She even went so far as to suggest that the The fact that everyone would be paying for the bus service could be by Kevin Machan personal integrity of one of our reporters is lacking conceived as almost forcing people to use the busses. Everyone would because of a relationship that reporter has with one have to pay for it whether they like busses or not. This may upset some don't care who you are or what you stand for, but who operates within the confines of our specious people, and this is an issue that students and SA must deal with. if you're not embarrassed by the conduct of an student government.
