if mi i Does your I Body speak I your language? How about Mine? Inside p February 12, 1997 TIMES Wolverines smash Badgers & Rebels in Southern Swing Inside pi w I r H, fkM Serving the Students of UVSC for 25 years Volume 26 Number 25 Mass Mailings Policy Short-circuits Student E-mail Jenene Chapman Sr. News Editor According to the policy of UVSC's CSIS department, mass Emailing is considered "illegal messaging." As stated in a mass Email from the System Administrator, "According to the Appropriate Use policy, it is prohibited for a student to send unsolicited mass Email messages. This means a student cannot send a mass mailing to a group of people without authorization. The policy also prohibits any commercialization or advertisement for any com mercial transaction." Recently this has been a problem here at UVSC. One recent example of advertising done through Email was a message sent on Jan. 30 by a student here at UVSC, selling a Pentium 120 MHz board and chip for $230, alone with other computer equipment. The student left their Email address for responses to the ad. A student by the name of Jodi Dreher responded to the ad, via mass Emailing to the student body, in retort. Dreher, in his Email stated, among other things, "I think that everyone should write. ..and tell him to peddle his crap elsewhere." The ad was sent to uvsc.admin. students on Thursday; Dreher mass Emailed his reply on Friday and on Saturday, when Dreher tried to access his account, he found that a hold was placed, denying him access. According to the Appropriate Use Policy, a hold is put on an offender's account long enough for contact to be made between the offender and Nathan Gerber, a System Administrator for the CSIS depart ment. This hold on an account is considered part of "due process" which is exercised to protect the system. All those who mass Email, whether they are advertising computer equipment, or stating their resentment about unprecedented messaging, will be penalized according to the "due process" clause in trie Appropriate Use Policy. One of the main problems that spawned the use of mass Emailing among the students of UVSC, was the See College, p 10 What a Sweetheart! Happy Valentine's Day. VM . The ASUVSC Sweetheart's Ball was held on Friday, Feb. 7, 1 997. Students who attended the festivities had the chance to listen to meet some new people, dance with their Valentines and spend some time with friends. Photo by Adam Harlow. Trade offs Colleges Depending More on Part-time Faculty BOSTON (AP) Universities and colleges are hiring increasing numbers of part-time faculty, reducing costs but risking complaints from students that their teachers are not available to them outside the classroom. Part-time faculty "are not that accessible to us," said Ed Rogers of Rockland, student government president at Massasoit. "A lot are not only working at this college, but two or three other colleges."University and college administrators say many of the part-time faculty they hire are working professionals with up-to-date knowledge the fields in which their students want careers. But critics contend the schools hire part-time teachers to save money, and end up disrupting the routine. A part-time faculty member makes about $16,800 a year, with no benefits. A full-time professor's pay ranges from an average of $39,945 at public two-year colleges to $60,658 at public universities and even more at some private institutions. " This trend is purely budgetary," said Catherine Boudreau, a professor at Massasoit and spokeswoman for the union of Massachusetts community college faculty. "It's hard for most to maintain course continuity because of a lack, of involvement in theday-today educational progress in the department. They don't go to departmental meetings. They are not paid for it. More than half the college and university teachers nationwide are part-time employees, according to the National Education Association. More than 565,000 faculty teach part-time, not including 202,000 teaching and research assistants, the NEA reports. Part-time faculty teach an estimated one-quarter of all college courses. "This is a huge problem," said Nancy Young, an adjunct professor who teaches three courses this semester at Curry College in Milton and two at Bentley College in Waltham. "You don't do it for the money. You do it because you want to teach." M I I I I I I I t I II (tl The following is a list of events occurring on UVSC campus and the surrounding communities.
