Outcome of OW-Parkside, Oshkosh struggles could affect Stevens Point

Recently two other universities in the Wisconsin ' system, namely Parkside and Oshkosh, have encountered severe problems concerning administrative control. UW-Osbltosb bas bad a bea~n clash with UW-System President Edwin Young when be rejected an appointment by the Oshkosh Student Association (OSA) ol two members to a Search and Screen committee which would select a new chancellor for Oshkosh . . Young demanded that the OSA give him four names for possible appointment and be would select two of these. Oshkosh declined this roundabout method and instead submitted to Young its two choices which be claims are invalid.

UW-Parkside bas suffered the loss of control of $430 000 in segregated fees to Chancellor Alan Gus~. (Segregated fees is the portion ortuition money that is used to fund various student activities.) . Guskin, according to the UW-Parkside pa~r, the Ranger, believed be was "forced mto this ... by unreasonable actions by the Segregated Fees Committee." These actions were the manner in which the Committee bandied the Athletic budget and its refusal to fund the new position of Dean of Student Life. In both cases there appears to have been a problem in communi~tion. Young ci~ a previous example as bis reason for refusmg to accept the appointments. He claims that the last · e be accepted two student appointments one ol the students allegedly leaked "confidential" information to the press. Young says that confidentiality is essential to the search and screen process and "the students selected someone who wanted to pull down that system." At Parkside the Segregated Fees Committee proposed that in three years Athletics be funded at zero base. Zero-based budgeting is a process in which each program to be funded starts at Barriers to communication stymie student rights zero and is built up. Guskin interpreted this as meaning that in three years the Athl~tic bu~~t will be zero. According to the com1IDttee this is exercise any measure of responsibility over not what was meant and it claims that the anything of importance on this campus." The case was decided in the students' favor chances of the Athletic budget being zero in although there was some controversy as to the The argument in both cases seems to stem interpretation of the statute which won the case three years time is zero. from the question of how much student Guskin feels, according to the Parkside for the students. participation there should be in University Since there have been no problems for two Ranger that either personal bias or political governance.
