Fowler claim by Frank Mullen

Former Metropolitan State College (MSC) President James D. Palmer denied accusations by State Senator Hugh Fowler (R-Llttleton) that MSC once . granted an "undeserved master's degree." ~ In a telephone conversation from Washington, D.C. Monday, Palmer said Fowler, as a member of the Senate Education Committee, spoke to him many time.s over the years, but Palmer cannot recollect Fowler ever mentioning a master's degree from MSC.

Dr. James D. Palmer: denial.

MSC, Palmer said, has never granted a master's degree in any area, and has never had the authority to do so. Richard Netzel, MSC Acting President, agrees with Palmer and characterized 1 'Fowler's charges as "absurd." The controversy began April 6 when the Rocky Mountain News ran a column by Gene Amole. The column was in support of Senate Bill 523-a Fowler bill reorganizing higher education in the state. The News story, on page five, read in part: "A guy came to our Senate Education Committee and showed us his degree. He said he had registered for the program and met with his professor and the committee. After talking with them, the student felt they were poorly prepared. He never went back," Fowler said. The News story quoted Fowler as saying, '·some time later Metro (MSC) mailed him his master 's degree. r (Fowler) checked the story and foui:id it absolutely true." Amole said he took Fowler's word for the incident and did not ask for verification from another source. Fowler, questioned April 6, said the incident is "absolutely true" and happened ''three or four years ago." Fowler provided the names of persons in the legislatufe, MSC and the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE) who might remember the incident . Fowler said he personally spoke to President Palmer when the incident took place, and the CCHE has "a complete record of the case." continued on page IO

Sen. Hugh Fowler (R-Iittleton): on the spot.

THE ASMSC CURRICULUM COMMITTEE The ASMSC Constitution describes the duties, term of office, etc. of members of the Curriculum Committee. What, however, are Curriculum Committee members' duties on a day-to-day basis? ASMSC Curriculum Committee members serve on the College Curriculum Committee (CCC) which also includes representatives of the Faculty Senate. The CCC approves new courses, new majors and minors, changes in requirements for majors, minors and general studies, with all decisions sent to the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE) for review and final approval. Curriculum Committee members are also asked to serve on a subcommittee of the CCC, such as the Audit Subcommittee, which seeks to eliminate duplication of courses. The CCC meets at variable intervals- depending on the workload to be considered-anywhere from twice weekly to every other month. Members receive the materials to be considered in their student government mailbox in STC 340 a week or more before the CCC meeting. Each member goes over the material individually, af!er which the ASMSC Curriculum Committee meets as a whole in order to caucus-or share information and plan strategy. Whether or not CCC materials are available for discussion, the ASMSC CC meets every 2-3 weeks for other business. ~ committee delves into vadous projects anl problems such as boo~ prices, teacher ev&ations, etc. Tues~ projects may involve a _gt'Ot,!P. :fiortt.!'~t, one_com~itt~e member wdl t>&'retpcm~for <(.'80n'.hnlt10n-; These

Mullen's corner By Frank Mullen The slings and arrows of outrageous Fowler. State Sen. Hugh Fowler, in an effort to show how messed-up Metropolitan State College (MSC') is and why the institution should be merged with the University of Colorado at Denver (UCD), told columnist Gene Amole l·he story of an MSC student who received a totally undeserved master's degree from the college. Amole , without checking the accuracy of Fowler's accusations, printed the incident as gospel on page 5 of the April 6 edition of The Rocky Mountam News. 'The story ran under the headline "Masterful Argument" and the undeserved master's degree was used as the · "grabber" for a sales pitch for Fowler's SB-523- the bill which would reorganize the governance of higher education and merge UCD and MSC under a locally-elected governing board. One problem. Metropolitan State College does not grant master's degrees. Not now. Not ever. The only person who even remembers the incident is Fowler. Ironically, Amole cited SB-253 as "perhaps the most carefully researched piece of legislation introduced this year" and said Fowler has been working on the bill for over two years. Fowler was not aware MSC does not have a master's degree program until April 6. Dr. Richard Netzel, acting president of MSC, said Fowler's story accused MSC of "falsifying transcripts and a diploma which carries a state seal." "The statement concerning the alleged master's degree was used unfairly to support the contention that Auraria is a mess," Netzel said. "(The statement) is indicative of the tendency of some legislative committees to accept testimony without verifying the credibility of the witnesses." Fowler, contacted April 6, was vague about the master's degree incident, which he said happened "three or four years ago." Be said the student showed the committee his "undeserved master's degree" which he said was sent to him through the mail even though the student "did no work to earn it." Fowler mentioned the names of six people-including a former MSC president, a Colorado Commission on Higher Education official, the executive director of Auraria, one senator and two former senators- who might be able to remember more about thy incident. All were contacted by The Metropolitan. All said they "had no recollection" of the master:s degree incident. Gene. Amole, after being told April 9 Fowler's statement on the master's degree had no available supportive evidence and as yet, no supportive testimony from anyone other than Fowler, said he would not print a follow-up to his April 6 column vindicating

MSC. "No, there will be no retraction. I didn't say those things, he (Fowler) dla," Amole said. · The college should call a press conference and deny it ifit isn't true." Amole said he has a "personal commitment." to urban education and will continue to support SB-523 since he feels it makes the best sense for metro Denver. "Everyone said 'why didn't I check the .facts?' " he said. "I as a reporter didn't feel it was necessary to check every jot and tittle of everything that goes in (the column)." . Amole said Fowler has been working on . the Auraria problem for over two years and was considered a reliable source for the master's degree story.· Perhaps Amole cannot be faulted for not cross-checking his facts. After all, he did not attend MSC journalism classes where the words "Accuracy! Accuracy! Accuracy!" are branded upon the brain of every student - and not even state senators are granted divine infallibility.

Editor's note: the following two letters address an incident last Friday, when a literature table, sponsored by the . Awaria chapter of the Young Socialist Alliance (YSA), Was knocked over-and one YSA member was assaulted. The incident occwed during the National Chicano Student Conference, sponsored by Metropolitan State College (MSC)'s El Moveiniento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (MEChA). MEChA spokesperson Antonio Sanchez said the YSA-and its companion organization, the Socialist Workers Party (SWP)-have been ostracized from the Chicano movement in places like California, where the YSA and SWP have been accused of using Chicanos for their (YSA/SWP) own political gain. Sanchez also said he understood "two women" were the non-YSA persons involved in Friday's incident.

suppress "controversial" ideas,. including MEChA's and the YSA's. Some administrators have hypocritically expressed ·'interest" in free speech after Friday's incident. It is important to demand thaf the Auraria administration stay out of this matter and make no attempt to victimize any of the organizations involved. The rights violated on Friday were not just the YSA's but those of every student. Two people acted as censors, deciding that certain ideas shou.ld not be read by anyone else, and then used violence to. enforce that undemocratic decision. Everyone loses when ideas are banned. It is only through the fullest possible discussion. where all ideas and views can be heard , thal student can make informed decisions about the issues confronting us. TI1e more democratic a social movement , the stronger it is. In these days of cutbacks in education, the hardest blows are directed at minorities.

YSA member Steve Marshall voted in the CCD student government to allocate $200 to the conference. Any YSAer would have done the same, and will in the future, because the YSA supports the right of Chicano students to full use of campus resources.

The YSA also supports free speech. We · have just recently .helped force the Auraria administration to ba<:k off its attempt to prohibit the sale of political literature in most areas of the student center. That was a victory for all groups and individuals at Auraria, especially those who stand to lose most when democrati<; rights are restricted: minority, women's and political groups. TI1e worst enemy of free speech and civil liberties on campus is the university administration; the movements for social justice must take the opposite stand, and fight vigorously to defend and expand all the rights we have won in struggle against the administration. One effect of such incidents can be to provide the administration with an excuse-to

Editor: Re: Your editorial in The Metropolitan, March 28, 1979 In reference to the above editorial concerning parking at Auraria Higher Education Center, I am wondering if yotr could tell me the following: A) how did this come about , the students having Lo pay parking meters and parking lots in order to attend classes? (And what are the "parking bonds" you mentioned in the editorial?) B) Who receives the revenues from these.e meters and lots? You see, I am new to the Auraria campus (Metro student) and woutd like to receive above information. If you don't have the answers to the above, can you tell me where I can find out? Thank you for your trouble.

Yours truly, John Van Son.

John: Students pay for their parking because the State of Colorado, in its infinite wisdom, builJ a commuter campus witlzout allocating funds for parking lots. The Auraria Board of' Directors authorized the selling of bonds- financial notes where holders are repayed their investment plus interest-to provide money to build the parking lots. Fees are charged to park 011 campus, with the revenues going toward retiring the bonds- paying back all investors. ~-

One of the strongest impressions he had of the People's Republic of China was the unabashed sentimentalism its people have about their leaders and their country. _ At cultural events such as theater, downright "embarrassingly sentimental" love songs are sung to leaders and in praise of country. The patriotism is different than of Russia, which Rhodes visited on a similar tour three years ago, where patriotism is '·heavy and guarded and secretive ... "Whenever we talked to people about 'What do you want to do?' they came back and said 'I want to serve niy country.'" Rhodes said ... This was not a programmed response. This is what they really wanted to say. They love their country and they want to serve it. "They talked about their country the same way born-again Christians talk about Christ." The incongruity between gushy patriotism and the Chinese matter-of-fact attitude toward love. sex, birth contro l and nudity also struck Rhodes. He said some young adults wished more freedom to date and dance , but "mostly they're too busy." In continued on page I 0

:Clockw~rk by S. Peter Duray-Bito Hey, droogies! Fancy coming to Romm 330 this aftei: to viddy the Orange movie! Bring a tolchak and enjoy the ultra-violence and maybe get your yarbels off with a bit o' the ol'in-<,>ut in-out! Finish it off with a night cap at the milk-bar. For all non-droogies, the idea is to see A Qockwork Orange. Probably the most bizarre movie ever made by film-maker Stanley Kubrick, Orange deals with the futuristic breakdown of English society into fascist, violent mayhem. The story centers around Alex, who, as a product of the fascist society, commits ultra-violence and in-out in-out (slang for gang wars and rape). He 1s caught and undergoes a government program to forever cure him of violent and sexual desires. What makes Orange so powerful, though, is its almost flawless execution. Director Kubrick leaves nothing to chance. The sets are impeccably crafted and highly imaginative; the camera work (often done by Kubrick himself) is captivating in itself; and Kubrick's labors in the cutting room paid off in a Jean. tightly-paced production. The film can be divided into two parts. 1he first section shows Alex and his gang (droogies) enjoying themselves hy first beating up a gang (probably one of the tightest fight sequences ever filmed), then looting and raping. Along with this action, some of the quirks of Alex's character unfold. For example, Beethoven's music

Orange: Cr.ushe~d: . _.,farbels

..

triggers Alex's violent and sexual fantasies . Wonderful little touches are added, such as Alex's middle-aged parents, who seem to just exist in the garbage-strewn sub-division where Alex lives. The milk-bar is another touch: black-walled, with plastic . tables shaped like naked women exposing their genitals, and a milk fountain in the form of-you guessed it- breasts. Meanwhile, as Alex sets a rape to the tune of "Singin' in the Rain ," the droogies become dissatisfied with their leader and plan to do him in. The poolside. slow-motion scene where Alex slices Dim is perfectly counterpointed by the high-speed menage-a-troisin Ale;<'s bedroom. Alex finally meets his fate swinging a large sculptured penis at a woman who runs a health farm. After killing her, he joins his fellow droogies . .. and gets a bottle of milk in his face. The second part of the movie begins here-a sort of moral to the story. Alex, while in prison, hears of an experimental process to cure him of violence forever. He volunteers for the treatment for the same reason any other prisoner would-to get out of prison. He is injected with a drug making him violently sick (yet another form of violence) when shown movies of fights, rapes, wars, and destruction. By accident, one of the films used to condition Alex- a newsreel of Hit !er-has Beethoven for a soundtrack. Alex is released-crippled into nausea and vomiting at the slightest experience of se;x, -

.

violence, or Beethoven. The violence of the everyday world, along wlfh tlut playing of Beethoven music, finally convince Alex to do himself in. Jumping out ofa building fa ils to kill him, though. and the government reverses the cure, making Alex violent and sexua l again . . . with the government"s apologies. of course. Aside from the visual milestones Kubrick crea ted with this 1971 release, the content of the film is still controversial. The film leaves some viewers grateful Alex's base desires are restored, and alludes 路to the Lorenzian concept of the ingrained, inevitable aggression of man. Further, the political premise of the not-so-distant future being a combination of extreme socialism-fascism does a lot of things to contemporary political idealists of all backrounds. Ultimately, though, the film's core is theolgical in nature. It contends man has a choice bet ween good and e~l, and the choice cannot be made for him--an existentialist

viewpoint. Listen ~ref~y to the priest's explanation o~fe prison library: here. A Qockwork Orange's statement is made. 路 Some i nteres ting~ visuals to watch for: extreme wide-angle distortions (especially in the milk-bar and the Jecord shop) and the negative backdrop when the droogies are racing along in the car. giggling and laughing. The camera was 路ac1ually dropped when Alex attempts suicide by jumping out a window . Finallv, tl)wards the end of the film. the newspaper clippings shov., Alex Burgess in the body type a private joke between Kubrick and Orange writer Anthony Burgess. from a director who has wrought such masterpieces as Lolita, Dr. Strange/ave, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and Barry Lyndon, A Clockwork Orange is as different from his other films as'11ey are all different from each other.

FRIDAY APRIL 20

Reems to speak April 13 While most film stars are looking for Oscars, Harry Reems has his sights set on an acquittal. The circumstances surrounding the 1976 oonviction- on a charge of conspiring to transport interstate an obscene movie-is what the male lead of the pornographic box office success Deep Throat will discuss when he speaks at Metropolitan State College (MSC), April J 3, 1979. Reems' presentation, "From Deep Throat to Memphis: Should Morality Be Legislated?" is open to the puplic and scheduled for 12:30 p.m. in Room 330 of the Au·raria Student Center. "What makes Reems' case so interesing," says Scott Woodland, MSC Assistant Director of Student Activities, "is that Reems was convicted of a violation that became law six months after he earned $100 for one day's work before the Deep Throat cameras- his total involvement with the film . In 1976, four years after his one-day involvement in the film'~ production (in

6

Miami, Florida-home of Anita Bryant), a Tennessee court convicted him on charges stemming from the film's subsequent distribution . It was a case in which both the film's co-producer-director and female-lead-star turned state's evidence tQ escape prosecution." According to Woodland , Reems is attempting to raise $175 ,000 to appeal his conviction, an effort in which has the support of noted constitutionalist Alan Dershowitz. "If he is unsuccessful in his appeal," says Woodland, "Reems' performance may become the first to earn an actor five years in jail and a $10,000 fine." While Reems travels the country discussing his legal problem, the prosecution back in Memphis is preparing another case against him based on his performance in The Devil in Miss Jones, another pornographic film. l11e talk is sponsored by the MSC Office of Student Activities.

CHINA· ,'' IRISH''

China, where the average marriage age is 23 for women and about '27 for men, personal relationships "are quite secondary." Part of the "new China includes more emphasis on education, a subject members of the tour group studied. Education, now blossoming, was a thwarted enterprise during . the l 0-year "Gang of Fou~" reign ending in · 1976. The most-gifted professors were · "shipped off' then to agricultural communes as _part of a campaign to make all help provide 'the necessities of life for a qua rt er of the world's populat ion. · The professors Rhodes met- some with degrees from American universities- were more tlisappointed than bitter about 'the experiment. "They don't want to dissent. When you ask thenf aqout the possibility of disagreeing. they say jf's American trait," he said. "What they want istliat everyone has the necessities of life. ~obody is rich." Colleges ne much like those in the United States, he said, but students are more serious. Stu.dies are conducted six days weekly and "there is no 'Thank God it's Friday.'·· Rhodes said he enjoyed scrutinizing the Chinese people- and comparing his scrutinization of the people to observations of people in other countries- as much as the tour of colleges such as Peking University. The communism of Russia and that of China differs radically, Rhodes said. ' The Chinese- who Rhodes described as "The ' lrish of Asia .. - are candid, poking fun at life, each other and authority. an accepted practice as long as the criticism doesn't reach print. Rhodes met factory workers ribbing a leader about work quotas. When the factory

continued from page 5 head was questioned about the complaining and joking, he just shrugged his shoulders and said: " That 's the Chinese." The "energy and organization" in this oountry where all are part of different communes conducting nightly meetings several times weekly also impressed Rhodes. he compared Chinese enterprise to the Yankee Pr-0testant work ethic. The "new" China is the focus of changes in Asia affecting the rest of the world, epitomized by the conciliatory ·attitude of leaders who ended a hundred years' hostility with Japan within yards of where Rhodes and other teachers ~al in the Japanese Hotel "Jew Otani during November. Although not actually witne~sing the state reception for Deputy Premier •D'Mg, ,the most powerful man in China tdday. Rhodes \vas impressed with being so dose· io a significant event in world history. Some members of the tour group, including Rhodes, also spent six weeks in Japan , two in Korea and a few days in Hong Kong. Ta iwa n~a subject Rhodes mistakenly thought would be a tender topic- in mainland China-was not included in the tour package. Without exception. no interest in "liberating'' Taiwan was epressed. Rhodes' impression was that Communist China was more interested in a great leap forward economically, and would not risk alienating ' the United States by threatening the independent Chinese country. W\thout endor si ng Maoism , totalitarianism or Communism. Rhodes praised the unselfish culture of the People's Republic of China, where three or four
