Durivage wants to know t-shirt legalities

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 30, 2005 -- Were it up to sciences Sen.-elect Kristina Durivage, t-shirts with booze and the Winona State logo wouldn't part of the university's homecoming. Durivage said she would vote against the t-shirts at the next Student Senate meeting, her first, unless she learns about legal repercussions related to the free-speech issue. "I think they extremely hurt the school's image," she said.The problem, she said, is that the university appears to support the t-shirts, pointing to slogans like "Wasted State University" or "A community of drinkers dedicated to intoxicate our world." She called the t-shirts tacky. MORE Durivage said she understands that the Student Senate is consulting a lawyer to learn the possible implications of a ban. If the university were vulnerable to a First Amendment lawsuit for banning t-shirt slogans, Drivage said she then would vote against the ban. Durivage said she recognizes that Winona State, as a publicly funded institution, may not be easily able to define what and what isn't appropriate against the backdrop of free speech. MORE Durivage said she doubts that a proposal by senior Sen. Ryan Predmore to prohibit t-shirts that associate the WSU logo and the words "Winona State University" with consumption of alcohol has no teeth. There are no consequences for clubs that are in violation, she said. Durivage noted that the Student Senate could have approached the clubs beforehand and warned them about offensive slogans hurting their potential membership. MORE Durivage makes a distinctiion between the homecoming booze t-shirts and the "I Love My Vagina" that were banned at the Winona high school last spring. The vagina t-shirts, which she supported, did not involve the school, Durivage said. About the homecoming shirts, she said that clubs, rather than relying on quick drinking jokes, could be more creative in the future if booze themes were off limits.

New senator: Shirt hullabaloo distracting

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 30, 2005 -- Newly elected student Sen. Dan Flynn said he would vote against any motion to for the Senate to censure clubs for selling t-shirts because of beer slogans. "We have better things to take care of than to be censoring WSU t-shirts," said Flynn, who will be asked to vote on a censure motion st hid first Senate meeting Wednesday. "I will be voting no to any motion to censor clubs at organizations from putting what they want on their shirts along with a WSU logo." The university's student affairs vice president, Cal Winbush, wants the Senate to act against clubs whose t-shirts denigrate the Winona State image. In his c campaign for a Senate freshman seat, Flynn was criticial on univerity policies against students caught drinking, including the double-jeopardy question of punishments from both civil and university authorities.

Ramaley set tone for ban plan?

Sept. 30, 2005 -- A quiet campaign by new Winona State Univerity President Judith Ramaley against underage drinking has exploded into a raging campus issue over whether student clubs should be allowed to raise funds by selling booze-theme t-shirts. Without fanfare Ramaley formed a task force several weeks go to fight underage drinking and implemented substance-abuse initiatives. Whether she instructed her student affairs vice president, Cal Winbush, to move against the t-shirts being sold for homecoming, or whether he was picking up on her cues, isn't clear. Explaining his effort to curb the sales a pre-homecoming ritual at Winona State, Winbush would say only that he and Ramaley realize a need to be more proactive on such issues. MORE Early last week campus clubs began their annual fund-raising ritual of selling homecoming t-shirts, many with references to boozing. Among the slogans that irked Winbush: WSU Drinking Team If I Only Had A Beer" with a dizzy Wizard of Oz cowardly lion Stop Thinking, Start Drinking Wasted State University Many shirts were purple and white, Winona State's colors. MORE In an interview, Winbush apologized for not moving to prevent the appearance of the shirts earlier. To critics who have fauilted Winbush for forcing the issue on the Student Senate agenda less than half an hour before the Senate convened on Wednesday -- an "ambush agenda" item, they called it -- Winbush said he didn't realize the shirts were on sale until Wednesday afternoon, even though the first shirts went on sale Monday just downstairs from his office in Kryzsko Commons. Although clubs have sold such shirts for years and although Winbush has been at Winona State since 1989, he acknowledged that he had not anticipated they would show up this year. MORE Winbush said he was pleased the Student Senate is considering a motion to disallow any t-shirts with the official WSU logo and that promote alcohol consumption. The motion, by senior Sen. Ryan Predmore, was postponed Wednesday until the Senate meets this Wednesday. The postponement removed the threat against club t-shirt sales for homecoming, which was last weekend. Hundreds of students show up at homecoming events sporting club t-shirts. In an interview last week, Winbush acknowledged he acted late. "The cat's already out of the bag," he said. "It's an after-the-fact motion," he conceded. MORE What's next? Winbush said that he and student activites Director Joe Reed would have a "conversation" with club representatives following the homecoming weekend festivities. "We will work as an administrative body to be more proactive, to plan for prevention in the future," he said. Winbush said he would like students to be more involved in developing strategies. In this sense, he said he was impressed with that the Student Senate accepted the issue on its agenda last Wednesday and is continuing discussion. MORE Winbush said that administration will be conducting surveys in what he called "social norming" this week. Overindulgence is not the norm, he said, but a highly visible and influential booze crowd makes it seem so, he said. Most students who don’t drink alcohol think they’re in the minority when in fact they are in the majority, said. This minority, he said, perceives falsely that Winona State is all about drinking and feels even more alienated from campus culture. Through "norming," the administration can adjust perceptions back to the reality that mainstream students are neither binge-prone nor reckless with alcohol.

Senator: WSU execs err on t-shirts

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 30, 2005 -- Student Sen.-elect Ron Kezeske said Winona State Univerity clubs should be allowed to sell booze-theme T-shirts. Responding to a CyberIndee poll of senators on a proposal to ban club-produced t-shirts, Kezeske said the shirts, a homecoming tradition, are not the university's business. It's not the univerity that's selling tbe shirts but student clubs, he said. Kezeske said the t-shirts are protected under the U.S. Constitution's free expression provison. Kezeske called for more communication with university President Judith Ramaley, who is believed to have initiated pressure on the Senate to restrict shirt sales for content reasons, and with also her student affairs vice president, Cal Winbush. MORE Kezeske faulted administrators for making an issue when there doesn't need to be one: "I don't think the t-shirts are a big deal. They aren't hurting anyone." About the image issue that Winbush aide Joe Reed cited at a Student Senate meeting Wednesday, Keeske said he doubts that community will look down on the university because of the t-shirts. "There is enough respect for our school already," he said. "The community should know that if a student is wearing an inappropriate shirt that Winona State didn't distribute them." MORE Asked if Winbush has a point at all, Kezeske said will listen to what administrators have to say: "There is obviously a line that the administration thinks the students have crossed. I think there is a gray area that needs to be defined. What can and can't students have on their t-shirts is what needs to be answered."

Anti-censorship petition making rounds

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 29, 2005 -- A student petition protesting a move by university executives against booze-theme t-shirts at homecoming has begun circulation. Ezra Kazee, facilitator for the Minnesota State University Student Association, who drafted the petitition, said university officials have no right to infringe on student free expression. Kazee cited Section 3.1.2 from the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities policies, which says students and their organizations " shall be free to examine and to discuss all questions of interest to them and to express opinions publicly and privately." The policies apply to all MnSCU colleges, including Winona State and include slogans and witticisms on homecoming t-shirts, Kazee said. MORE Kazee's petition is aimed not only at university administrators but also at the Student Senate, which possibly, he said, might go along with university Vice President Cal Winbush's pressure to bar campus clubs from selling t-shirts he finds offensive. There seemed to be mounting opposition to the Winbush plan for the Senate to act against the t-shirts. Several influential senators added their voice against what partisans sees an administrative call for censorship. MORE Banning clubs from creating and selling t-shirt with imaginative albeit sometimes dubious messages would ruin a tradition, said sophomore Sen. Jared Stene. Stene, who also is vice president of the College Democrats chapter, said too that an important club fundraising activity would be damaged. On the issue of citizen rights to free expression, Stene said that regulating the shirt contents would just open the door for more regulations. He noted the term "slippery slope" had been used in the Wednesday debate before the Student Senate. MORE Ryan Flynn said that as the president of the Student Senate he would abide by any Senate decision but that personally he believes the clubs have the right to sell their shirts. The sales are vital to club funding and to getting club names out around campus, said Flynn, who campaign for the student presidency was built partly on programs to strengthen student clubs. "Every college has these shirts that relate to partying or alcohol consumption," Flynn said, "As long as they do not promote illegal activities, such as underage consumption, then I do not see a big problem with them." Flynn called the shirt slogans this year "funny." MORE The issue blew up before the Student Senate meeting after Winbush sent student activities Director Joe Reed to press Senate Vice President Kari Williams to add t-shirts to the agenda less than half an hour before the scheduled meeting. Winbush's timing normally would have precluded organized opposition, but club members, selling t-shirts downstairs in Kryzsko Commons, quickly got wind of what was happening and marched upstairs to protest. Winbush himself was not at the meeting. After fiery exchanges, the Senate voted to postpone a decision. That left clubs free to sell their inventories of homecoming-theme shirts for the traditional fashion display at the university homecoming game on Saturday. But the issue remains on the Senate agenda with a proposal, by senior Sen. Ryan Predmore, to apply the Winbush ban beginning in mid-October. MORE Kazee said he is confident in a strong student response to his petition. The petition, he said, is not limited to just the t-shirt issue but also for the rights of the students in all categories. Kazee distributed the petition to several clubs begininng with those that have t-shirts for sale now. He said he would also be walking around campus and attending dorm meetings to get signatures. "The petition only needs 250 signatures to force the Senate to recognize the petition, but I am hoping for a lot more," Kazee said.

EZRA KAZEE Sudent rights advocate KAZEE PETITIION It has recently been brought to the attention of the students of Winona State University that administration believes that some t-shirts that WSU Student Clubs use for fundraising activities during Homecoming are detrimental to the image of Winona State University. The Administration decided to approach the WSU Student Senate in order to fix the problem. We, the undersigned, are concerned students who urge our Student Senate Representative to act now to ensure that the WSU Student Senate is working on not restricting the rights of students, but to protect and expand the rights of WSU students in all areas including but not limited to the situation stated above. MNSCU POLICY 3.1.2 Freedom of Expression Individual students and student organizations shall be free to examine and to discuss all questions of interest to them and to express opinions publicly and privately. They shall be free to support causes by orderly means that do not disrupt the regular and essential operation of the institution. In the classroom, students shall be free to take reasoned exception to the data or views offered in any course of study and to reserve judgment about matters of opinion, but they are responsible for learning the content of any course of study for which they are enrolled.

WSU exec calls for booze t-shirt ban

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 28, 2005 -- Booze-themed t-shirt that Winona State University clubs have created as homecoming weekend fund-raisers blew up in a brouhaha before the Student Senate. Club leaders used the "c" word -- censorship -- after learning that student affairs Vice President Cal Winbush had expressed concerns to the Senate about t-shirt slogans. Winbush relayed his concern via student activities Director Joe Reed, who said Winbush couldn't make the meeting himself. It might have been just as well. Club leaders took out their wrath on the Senate, which it seemed Winbush had wanted to take action against t-shirt slogans, presumably a ban that could be enforced by withholding student-activity fee allocations for wayward clubs. MORE Club leaders repeated the phrase "slippery slope," arguing against Senate action. "Where will it end if the Senate begins censorship?" they asked. A Minnesota State University Student Association facilitator, Ezra Karzee, told senators that they have no right to infringe on club freedom of expression. Kazee cited Section 3.1.2 from state college system policies. MORE The issue could be the first crisis in the administration of new university President Judith Ramaley. She was quoted at the meeting as pushing Winbush to take a more proactive role against underage drinking. Since taking office over the summer, Ramaley has felt pressure from city officials, including Mayor Jerry Miller, to tackle the continuing issue of underage drinking and related hooliganism. MORE In the past, mostly through Student Senate default, Winbush bullied his way successfully on censorship issues. Two years ago, without consultation with students, Winbush refused to renew a contract for College Network Television in campus cafeterias because he considered some music videos too risque. He also banned booze-related units from the homecoming parade in 2003, including a Schott's Distributing Co. truck and an old-time car from Betty Jo Byoloski's bar and grill. MORE At the Senate meeting Wednesday afternoon Reed said Winbush would appear before the Senate on Oct. 5 to address the issue of t-shirts perceived to condone alcohol. President Ramaley may also attend, he said. That will be after homecoming, which is this weekend. The issue, as Reed stated it, is primarily about using the WSU logo along side pro-drinking slogans and messages. Club leaders, who jammed the gallery, responded that their t-shirts are light-hearted, humorous and in the spirit of homecoming, like "Warrior & Football & Beer 2005." In effect, they said: "Loosen up." MORE A major problem for clubs is that they already have invested in printing t-shirts and that censorship, whether by Winbush or the Senate, would leave them with unsold inventory and deep in debt. For some clubs, homecoming t-shirts are a major revenue source for year-long activities. MORE Senior Sen. Ryan Predmore proposed that the Senate disallow the sale of t-shirts that use the official WSU logo including the words" Winona State University" in connection with consumption of alcohol by university-connected organizations on university grounds effective Oct. 15. Predmore's motion would have sidestepped a financial crisis for cubs with t-shirts ready to go. Action, however, was posted until after Winbush and perhaps Ramaley present their positions in person next week. MORE At Wednesday's meeting Reed quoted Winbush that he has received "multiple complaints" because clubs are selling drinking t-shirts on campus. Reed did not say how many compaints there had been. "We need to address this issue in some way or form." Reed said. "The question is should we allow the clubs to sell the shirts on campus? That is the problem we are dealing with." MORE Education Sen. Michael Henke said the postponement gives the Senate time to address the issue. "It wasn’t until right before the meeting when the issue was added to our agenda, he said. Henke said he would poll students about the issue.

Collegians seen in faith-reason disconnect

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 26, 2005 -- If students want conservative evangelical thinking, then go to a denominational college, an English prof told a Winona State audience in the university's Faith and Reason speaker series. "Universities are predominately secular institutions founded on scientific and rational principles," Armstrong said. Even so, he said, religion shouldn't be ignored in the public university. There can be no coherent intellectual development without a curriculum that deals with the main ideas in the history of Western civilization, he said, which means, he added, reading the Bible and studying the history of church. MORE Many students are Evangelicals, some are Fundamentalists, and almost none of them know the history of their belief system, Armstrong said. Too many, he said, go to universities with only the vaguest understanding of how their university stands on religion. Students' main model of college seems to come from watching "Animal House," he said. Armstrong quoted one of his freshman as saying that college is like Disney World for 18- to 24-year-olds. MORE Devout students may work avoiding the temptations of college, but the great unwashed middle go through the tiresome rounds of beer pong parties, Jell-O shot parties, and Everclear punch parties, untouched by their professors' ideas and will conclude that their profs were probably leading them to hell, he said. But if that is true, it is only a sin of omission, he added. Profs are uniformly horrified by undergraduate life, Armstrong said. The excessive drinking, unprotected sex, the mindless talk of property crime, weight gain and drug addiction is not what profs would prescribe, he said. But the structure of university life doesn't offer profs much leverage to change things, he said. Reporter: Jon Resheske Background: WSU lecture series: Faith and reason

Kezeske goal: Win peer respect

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 26, 2005 -- A freshman who landed a seat on the Winona State Student Senate in last week's elections, Ron Kezeske, said he will spread who he is by word of mouth starting with his university friends and classmates. He'll start connecting with students in his Maria dorm and progress to other freshmen around campus, Kezeske said. It takes time to make connections and gain respect from peers, he said, adding that he needs a chance to prove himself as a Senator: "I want time to prove that I follow through with tasks I pursue and tasks that are given to me." In his campaign for one of three Senate frosh seats, Kezeske said, his most effective technique was word of mouth in his dorm and among his friends. "People talk," Kezeske said. MORE Kezeske sees issues as dorm comfort, campus appearance, bus schedules, and textbook prices. Kezeske said he wants to let people know that he is available to discuss campus issues. "I want people to know that I am a laid-back person. But when it comes to being affirmative and getting things done, I am serious," Kezeske said. MORE Kezeske said his lifestyle will not change a lot as a result of his new Senate responsibilities even though he will have less free time and his work schedule will have to change. He acknowledged he has never attended a Senate meeting and doesn't know any senators.

Danielson: Reaching out aided victory

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 26, 2005 -- A newly elected at-large student senator at Winona State University, D.J. Danielson, attributes his election victory last week to reaching many people face to face while campaigning. "When you can introduce yourself to voters, it is much more effective," he said. "An important connection is made." Danielson finished third in a five-way race for four at-large seats. Alex White led with 344 votes, followed by Dan Flynn, 311; Danielson, 297; and Scotty Ryan, 287. It was Danielson's second bid for the Senate. In April he lost a three-way race for two liberal arts seats by 18 votes. MORE Danielson, who has covered the Senate as a news reporter, said he will throw himself into his new duties by attending a Senate meeting this week. Induction of new senators will be Oct. 5. "The learning curve is pretty steep, so I have to learn a lot of information fairly quick," Danielson said. MORE In campaigning Danielson stressed communication as a theme. In an interview after the election he promised to follow through. When the time comes for the Student Senate to take up tuition, his real work will start, Danielson said. Students can expect him to be a powerful voice for their interests, he said. MORE Student senators must take the initiative to communicate with the Winona City Council, said Danielson, referring to the city movement to reduce student rental-housing in the campus neighborhood and also other issues. Danielson expressed willingness to attend City Council meetings to represent students. Currently student President Ryan Flynn and Treasurer Laura Berens are on a task force that has endorsed anti-student reforms pushed by City Council member Deb Salyards. MORE Danielson said he will be at campus events, including club meetings, to tap student opinion, although, when asked, he said he doesn't have specific meetings scheduled. "I am very open to scheduling a meeting with campus organizations if the desire is there." Students have opportunities to reach him during two scheduled office hours per week in the Senate office, he said. Danielson said he invites e-mail: dadaniel3114@winona.edu

Same-sex essay collection canceled

NEW YORK, Sept. 25, 2005 -- Scbolarly publishing house Haworth Press canceled the publication of an edited volume on homosexuality in classical antiquity that included a chapter by Temple University psychologist Bruce Rind. Social conservatives had denounced the book as a defense of sexual relationships between men and adolescent boys. The book, Same-Sex Desire and Love in Greco-Roman Antiquity and in the Classical Tradition of the West, had been scheduled for publication in November by Harrington Park Press, an imprint of Haworth. Rind's chapter was also to be released in a special issue of the Journal of Homosexuality, also published by Haworth, but that too was canceled. MORE The cancellation came after the conservative Web site WorldNetDaily, edited by Joseph Farah in Grants Pass, Oregon, denounced Rind's contribution. An abstract had appeared on the web. Kathryn Rutz, vice president for editorial development at Haworth, confirmed that about 20 e-messages against the chapter had been received. Although the chapter had been accepted by the editors of the book, Vernon Provencal and Beert Verstraete, professors of classics at Acadia University, in Nova Scotia, Haworth editors had not yet reviewed it, Rutz said. Whether to publish the material would have come up later in the the production process, she said. The book was scheduled for publication in November. MORE Rutz said five Haworth executives made the decision to cancel after "vigorous discussion." Freedom of inquiry and expression were balanced against negative publicity and also the appearance of caving in "to a particular group with its own right-wing agenda." About Rind's subject, Rutz said: "For the record, we do not in any way support or endorse the practice of pedophilia, pederasty, or any form of child abuse." MORE How did the book get so near to publication without Haworth checking the content? Rutz acknowledged that the e-mail protests caught the company by surprise. She explained that the editors of Haworth journals, imprints and book series are not Haworth employees but faculty experts in their disciplines: "Editors under contract submit, and we publish." Rutz said Haworth has called off other projects late in the process. She cited a book about parental-alienation syndrome that, although under contract, was cancelled because it was too much a hot button issue. MORE Bruce Rind has been criticized before for his work. He was co-author of a review in the Psychological Bulletin, a journal of the American Psychological Association, that assessed 59 previously published studies of college studies who experienced intergenerational sex growing up. Contrary to convention wisdom, some students had suffered no lasting psychological harm. They also concluded that 42 percent of the male students considered the experiences "positive." The outrage, fueled by social conservativesm prompted Congress to denounce the article. MORE Among scholars, Rind has critics too. Steven Ondersma, a psychiatry professor at Wayne State University who edits the journal Child Maltreatment, doesn't quarrel so much with Rind's methodology or factual conclusions but at the risk that child abuse carries. Adult-adolescent sexual conduct is so intrinsically risky that it is always wrong, Ondersma said. Rind's work has appearedin many forums, including the explicitly pro-pedophilic journal Paidika. In Paidika, Rind argued for age-of-consent laws to be repealed. MORE The cancelled Haworth book included 14 chapters besides Rind's. Most are examinations of gay themes in classical art, poetry and mythology. An abstract of Rind's essay, "Pederasty: An Integration of Cross-Cultural, Cross-Species, and Empirical Data," suggests that sexual relationships with older men are a time-honored way for adolescents to grow into mature masculinity. An excerpt: "In ancient Greece, samurai Japan, and numerous other cultures, pederasty was seen as the noblest of human relations, conducive to if not essential to nurturing the adolescent's successful intellectual and physical maturation." MORE The WorldNetDaily item that triggered the Haworth cancellation said the book, specifically Rind's essay, constitued an attempt at "the mainstreaming of 'adult-child' or 'intergenerational' sex, as it is euphemistically called by its supporters, is the next big 'sexual liberation' movement on its way."

HAWORTH PRESS Weighs pros, cons; says no ABSTRACT OF RIND ESSAY The abstracts for the canceled book's chapters are now posted on the Web site of IPCE, a Dutch pro-pedophilia organization: "Pederasty, or sexual relations between men and adolescent boys, is condemned in our society as an unqualified evil that maims and destroys. In ancient Greece, samurai Japan, and numerous other cultures, pederasty was seen as the noblest of human relations, conducive if not essential to nurturing the adolescent's successful intellectual and physical maturation. "Current psychological and psychiatric theorizing have pronounced and promoted the former view, while ignoring the vast array of cross-cultural data related to the latter view. Mental health opinion has also ignored a wealth of cross-species data with important parallels. Instead, this opinion is based on feminist models of rape and incest, which are backed up by clinical research on child sexual abuse. "The current article examines empirical rather than clinical data on pederasty, and supplements this with cross-cultural and cross-species perspectives. The empirical data show that pederasty is not only not predestined to injure, but can benefit the adolescent when practiced according to the ancient Greek form. Cross-cultural and cross-species data show the extensiveness of pederasty in the natural world, as well as its functional rather than pathological nature in these societies and species. "An evolutionary model that synthesizes the empirical, cross-cultural, and cross-species data is proposed as an alternative to the highly inadequate feminist and psychiatric models. The animal data suggest that the seeds for pederasty were planted at the dawn of humanity. The human data suggest that pederasty came to serve a mentoring function." ABOUT HAWORTH Started in 1978 by Bill Cohen and Patrick McLoughlin with a library security newsletter, which Bill edited himself. Today Hawort publishes more tghan 200 journals and issues more than 80 original books per year. Haworth journals include: Journal of Child Sexual Abuse Journal of Religion and Abuse American Journal of Pastoral Care and Counseling Journal of Homosexuality ABOUT WORLDNETDAILY Recent assertions on the site: Hurricane Katrina was divine retribution for the Bush administration's support for the Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip. What awaits new college students is non-stop leftist indoctrination, pervasive sexual anarchy and loss of their values and innocence.
