Trustees adopt consolidation plan . By Emerson Schwartzkopf

A proposal to consolidate certain academic programs at Metropolitan State College (MSC) and the University of Colorado' Denver (UCD) has met with approval, uncertainty, and a laek of knowledge "Since its presentation June22. The proposal, unveiled at the Board of Trustees meeting at Alamosa last Friday, assigns responsibility for ''upper division course work and academic majors" to UCD for· Modern Languages (Spanish excluded), Philosophy, and Physics. • MSC, under the proposal, will control ''its own lower division service programs" in the above areas, and exclusively.offer degree programs in Education and Urban Studies. The proposal was presented as a ''progress report'' by Donald · Macintyre, MSC president, and John Marvel, state college consortium president, on consolidation actions resulting from footnotes in .. the "long bill" appropriating fiscal 1979-80 state funds. The footnotes--38 and 44a-authorize transfers .of funds bet-

ween MSC and UCD by both the Auraria Board of Directors and the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE). The transfer powers are designed to speed consolidation of duplicated academic programs and support services at Auraria. The trustees, meeting at Adams State College, "formally adopted the concept" of the proposal, said John Turano, consortium vice-president of academic and administrative affairs. Harold Haak, UCD Chancellor (and co-drafter of the proposal with Macintyre) called the trustee action "encouraging." "It's a reasonable proposal," Haak said. ''It addresses problem areas that constantly are cited." Haak will present the proposal before the CU Regents Thursday, and expects the board to be ''sympathetic." · · Others, however, were less enB thusiastic. Richard Netzel, MSC vice- iD president for academic affairs, said ~ he has "personal reservations" 0 about some parts of the proposal ~ which includes faculty transfer en requests and completion of degree continued on page 2 MSC President Richard Netzel: no internalstatic

defaults equalling less than ten percent of the total loans, the federal government will repay the state completely. . Baldner said no state, to her knowledge, has ever failed to obtain federal reimbursement. About 40 states now have state-guaranteed loan programs, she said. The student will have to pay an administrative fee at the time the loan is received: one percent of the face value multiplied by the number of years the loan will be used. For example, a loan of $1,000 received by a freshman will not be repaid - or start to be repaid - until five years later (four years of college plus one year _ of grace period), so the "fee" for the loan would be $10 multiplied by five, or $50. This amount will probably be deducted from the student's first loan receipt, according to Baldner. The loans will probably be approved for a school year, but issued each semester. This fee, Baldner said, will be used to pay for the actual costs of the program, not for the loans themselves. "It doesn't cost the state any money to run the program," she said. The state will support the lenders by buying back the student loans. A public, non-profit corporation will be established, as stipulated in SB-52, and the corporation will issue revenue bonds. The sale of these bonds will provide money to buy back the student loans from the original lenders - something called secondary borrowing - and then the state will pay back the revenue bonds as the students pay back their loans. "The money actually just chases itself," Baldner said, "but it's proven to be effective." Why is just any one eligible for the

loans? One reason is that in order for the state to obtain 100 percent federal reimbursement, it is mandatory the program be totally non-need based. "We don't think we'll see that many, $100,000-a-year incomes applying for loans,'' Baldner added. She also pointed out that only 2 percent of the students who attend college have family incomes over $40,000. "We are hoping," Baldner said, ''lenders will discourage people who ~ don't really don't need it ... but the only true turn-down basis is a reason to believe the person will not repay the loan." She added, although neither the banks nor the state can turn down a highincome applicant, "counselling" will be available to that person, and administrators will be responsible to discourage high-income loans. Overall, Baldner said, this is the cheapest way to run the program, considering the state support of the lenders, the consolidated billing through the state, and even the relatively lower chance of default because the student will be_. dealing directly with a bank. "We think that Colorado lenders ... will do a better job of getting the money repaid (than the federal government)," Baldner said. ''A cold-eyed banker will be more effective than a bureaucrat in Washington." • Baldner said the proposed program, which has received strong support from local private institutions and trade schools, but only "lukewan_;n support" from public colleges, won't receive im~ mediate backing from the area's banks, but she believes they will eventually see it ,' is a better program that the Federally Insured Student Loan Program. continued on page 8

Veterans told ''not to panic'' /

The Metropolitan State College Office of Vetera.tls Affairs (OVA) is telling veterans "not to panic" over the change in MSC tuition payment policies, but an OVA spokesman said he fears the changes may reduce veteran enrollment at the college. "Historically, for whatever reason, the veteran student doesn't always keep up to date on the ever-changing regulations," said Thomas J. Ward OVA director. "I think the change Metro's enrollment policies will impact veteran enrollment very seriously.'' Ward said approximately 20 percent of Metro State students are recieving veterans educational benefits. He said his office is doing everything it can to warn vets of the change in policy. Beginning in the fall semester, MSC students will be required to pay their tuition in full upon registration. Students participating in "mail-in" registration (deadline for return of mail registration is July 13) will be required to pay by August 13. If they have not paid by that date their enrollment will be canceled, accor~ ding to the MSC business office. "Veterans are in a very tenuous situation," Ward said. "They receive their benefits once a month and it only takes one bad month to throw them clear out of kilter."

u;

He said his office is encouraging eligible vets to apply for "advance pay" as soon as possible. He said vets must be informed of the change quickly and plan ahead to make tuition payments. Ward said vets who want more information may contact his office at 1015 Ninth St., or call 629-2993 or 629-2994.

By Frank Mullen

Metropolitan State College (MSC) students will be paying more money for tuition and fees this fall and they will be required to pay it in full upon registration. . Jay Johnson, MSC controller, said the college made the change in the payment system in the wake of legislative action requiring all state' institutions to count only paying students as "full time equivalent" (FfE) students. In the past, state institutions could count all full time students as FrE's whether or not they paid their bill. The riumber of FrE students is applied in the budgeting formulas used to determine the institution's budget for the following year. More FrEs mean more money is allocated by the legislature to the institution. "The legislators would never have changed their policy if it were not for Metro," Johnson said. "We had the most lienient payment policies ... · In the past a student could pay the bill seven or eight weeks after the start of the term. But the old system: just wasn't working." He said between 1,500 and 2,000 students would fail to pay their bill each semester under the old system. The state and the students who paid their bills were subsidizing the students who failed to pay. Beginning with fall semester, students who enroll at "walk-in" registration will be required to pay their tuition and fees at the same time. Those who participate in mail registration (deadline July 13) will be required to pay before August 13, or they will not be registered for classes. They can still participate in "Walk-in" registration. In the case of mail registration, Johnson said, all students must fill out the "financial commitment form 1 ' included in the class schedule and mailed to all MSC students this week. The form must be filled out and mailed with the mail registration form. Checks, Mastercharge and Visa will be accepted for payment. He said students whose tuition will be paid by another source, such as a government agency or business, financial aid, or "advance pay" veterans should fill out the appropriate sections of the form and mail it to the college.

Johnson said he is "optimistic" about the effect of the change in policy upon MSC enrollment. He said recently enacted financial aid laws will make it easier for" more students to qualify for aid. He said he encourages stu~ents to explore all the avenues of financial aid which may be available to them. The decision to accept charge-cards for tuition, he said, was made to ''make it as easy as possible for students to pay." The legislature also increased tuition at all state higher education institutions. At MSC, resident students taking 10:18 credit hours formerly paid $226. The cost for the same student is now $256. This is a 13.2 percent increase. Non-resident tuition jumped 26.8 · percent; from $760 for 10-18 credits to . $964 this fall. The University of Colorado at Denver (UCD) has also experienced a rise in tuition. UCD, however, will stick to its present system of tuition collections. At the University, students may pay their tuition in three equal installments according to Nancy Stallings of th~ UCD Cashier's office. The Community College of Denver at Auraria (CCD-A) is still in the process of determining payment guidelines, according to Kevin Callison of the CCD Business office. He said he is unsure what continued on page 8

Editorial Is Carter courting oil disaster? I

By Gaetan µon

President Jimmy Carter wants to remove all price celings on oil in order to increase our domestic oil production, decrease consumption and thus lessen our dependence on foreign imports. This energy policy is very sound at first glance, but looking a few years down the road, could lead to catastrophy. Why? Because the critical issue is not how much oil we produce or import, but how much oil we have left. ' Contrary to popular belief, we don't have eno_!lgh reserves- for the next fitly or one hundred years. Although domestic oil production has decreased by IS percent from 1970 to 1977, our oil production has decreased by 25 percent during the same period. An easy forecast would state that in 28 years we would If domestic oil prices are have no oil left! deregulated, our domestic production will increase drastically, causing our oil reserves to become depleted even faster, possibly as soon as fourteen

years. Oil deregulation does not give us much time to find some feasible energy alternatives. The bargaining power of OPEC is so much

stronger than ours because they currently have healthy oil reserves and we do not. However, all oil

reserves are finite, including OPECs. Ultimately the bargaining power is going to shift to those with the larger reserves. Our best bet is to keep oil price · ceilings, curtail domestic production and import all the oil we can afford from OPEC in order to deplete their reserves instead of ours. . The result of deregulating the price of oil could

pnce controls exist, gasoline users are paying from . $2.00 to $2.50 a gallon! The president believes that such a price hike is beneficial, asit would reduce our oil consumption. Reduction will be extremely difficult because our cities have been designed to depend on the private car as a means of transportation.

If the price of gasoline were to rise to $2.00 per gallon, would you ride your bike on I-25 to commute to school or work? Probably not. More of your pocket ·money would go into gas purchases. Consequently, oil price deregulation will turn the oil crisis into a money crunch and lead to total oil depletion.

Letters Editor: The article on the Ground Round "punk" event had several untrue and incriminating statements which can hurt the bands that played--Violators, ' Defex and Guys--as well as other bands around town. The writer stated that the bands defamed race, creed. and color. This is not true. The first that was even heard of the KKK was in Werges' article. This article just adds to the already negative view of "punk rock" or New Wave music people already have from . readying exaggerated articles. There wa~ · no violence or racism that is supposedly associated with New Wave. All the bad press received can hurt the chances of having more activities on a regular basis in Denver. There are a lot of people interested in bearing energetic and innovative music not heard on the Top 40 or in the Discos, and would like to give New Wave a chance to surface in Denver. We don't need to have our chances stifled by bad press. · · · Cordially, The Guys

taining any racist lyrics whatsoever--in fact, neither do the Guys or the Violators. Those bands too contain a very wide racial spread. We do not belong to any organizations like the KKK, we do not believe in racism, nor do we encourage it. I'm sorry you didn't understand Tommy Pop's introduction to "Belsen" and the ·words to it (you · have heard the words, haven't you?). The song is about the Nazi's persecution of the Jews--a protest song about man's continuing inhumanity to man. It does not slander the Jewish people or their faith. You guys should shape up. If you're going to play newspaper man, at least print an accurate account of what's news. Don't write a lot of cheap tripe based on yo_ur own impression of what something is.

Editor: The story on the Ground Round rock show in your June 13th issue was a gross misrespresentation of the event. I· am appalled to think that someone w]th the title "Business Manager" like Steve Werges can write sych a pack of lies and an "Editor" such as yourself can permit its publication. If the staff of The Metropolitan is any indication of the future of journalism, then lam truly frightened. Mr. Werges's statement concerning the Ground Round's "attitude" toward the event was erroneous. Their attitude was positive and receptive. They knew a month in advance the type of music which would be featured on June 8th. As producer and promoter of the event, I must say the Ground Round's management ·was very positive about staging it; in fact, at the end of the night, they offered to stage two more such shows. With no steady place in Denver for the local new wave bands and their following to call their own, it seems strange that you "mature, intelligent" writers want to destroy . what outlets we do have to have fun. Your comment on ''the bands doing their part to defame race, creed or color" and stating how well they would've gone over with the Ku Klux Klan sound like cheap attempts to convince others that don't really know about rock and roll that rock is racist in nature. I resent your labeling of these bands as bands that insult people of other races, creeds or colors. Of the Defex, the drummer is Jewish, the bass player is Polish and the singer and lead guitarist come from white_surburbia. _They sing no songs con-

A letter to Metropolitan Readers: · Voters--the working engineers of the democratic-republic-federation that is America--are goofing off, killing time and killing themselves as voting citizens. Regardless of romantic tales of the likes of Greek democracy by an elite citizenry of male property owners in which slaves were property, Americans are pioneers in voting. Voting is the power of the people · (democracy) to delegate authorities and responsibilities (republicanism) and to group them to meet various needs (federalism). The process is in constituencies from schools and towns into states and a nation. Idealistically it is of a beauty to command attention, yet it does not in America. Of the major nations in which people have voting rights, the U.S. has the weakest percentage of qualified persons who exercise their rights, their authorities, their responsibilities. For comparative examples review the voting records of France, West Germany or Japan. But as we are not attracted to its beauty, we obviously must be aroused by distasteful ingredients to v.ote. The distasteful ingredients perhaps are excessive taxes, rules by laws into nearly every step of life or a new ingredient being brewed in Congress. The new brew is an ammendment by Rep. Robert Walker, R-Pa., in the process of the House of Representatives to build a new Department of Education. Deceitful beauty describes the Walker ammendment. News announcements glamourously are that

Psychic side oflife studied by Young By Vicki Bailey

Young said students· will learn to develop their psychic spiritual being through the daily practice of lessons which he has created. The lessons will act as guidelines for self discovery of one's own psychic abilities. As an example of his work, Young citea the 'Bowl lesson', when a person can physically transfer their womes, by relasing them into a higher power of thought. He said this can be accomplished by prayer. . · For a reference text, Young will use the Bible. He said that many psychic examples which are often overlooked are found in the Bible. Young is currently teaching this course at Arapahoe ommunity College, Community College f I;>enver, and the Jefferson County dult Education System. He has lecture at the University of Hawaii and Gettysb College. He and his wife, Myrt, have also worked with mentally disturbed persons in Denver area hospitals. Tuition for this course is $20. Students are asked to bring a loose-leaf notebook. For further information regarding this course, call Learning for Living, 629-3046 anytime.

Are you psychic? Do you easily get hunches? ~ How intuitive are you? Find out the answers to these and other psychic related questions through a class for the whole family, called "Developing Your Psychic Side." The class is offered by the Learning for Living Center, an adult learning program at · Metropolitan State College. Jack Young will teach the class at the Jewish Community Center, 4800 E. Alameda Ave., July 9, 16, 2~ and 30. According to Young, psychic phenomena will be objectively discussed, such as: clairvoyance, clairaudience, ..direct voice, automatic writing, dreams and hypnosis. . Everyone is psychic in some way, and a person can find their abilities through his method, Young said. The method is the discovery of your spiritual psychic being, that is, the voice of the god within you, or your true self. The •spiritual psychic being is found, according to Young, by realizing there is no conflict between religion, science or psychic, but that each is related to one another.

Streisand knows little about boxingby S. Peter Duray-Bito THE MAIN EVENT. Starring Barbra Streisand and Ryan O'Neal. From Warner Bros. at Villa Italia and Cherry Creek. Well, what we have here is another boxing movie. A Rocky comedy. With Rocky II out, too, we should have a hardhitting summer. Ryan O'Neal as a boxer? Naturally, they must be kidding. They aren't- Eddie "Kid Natural" Scanlon hasn't fought in four years and is living off the $60,000 someone invested in him as a tax shelter. That someone is Hillary Kramer (Barbra Streisand). Using her nose to her advantage for on~e. Streisand runs a perfume company in search of the ultimate perfume. Her former husband walks in on her disco-exercise class and tells Streisand she is bankrupt. Her perfume business is out and fighting is in. Her only remaining asset is the contr~ct with "Kid Natural." Hillary is determined to get her money back and gets into the fight management business to win·some fights. Kid Natural doesn't want to fight ("I killed a man once") and the two go at each Other for the rest of the film. Streisand is magnetic. She has tremendous presence-a big mouth, wildly gesticulating hands and protruding buttocks. O'Neal, by contrast, has that fighter's air of poised mindlessness, but is .often provoked to explode at Streisand (a real fighter wouldn't do that to a real lady). And his clean-cut American look . certainly doesn't awe the opposition. They go to the strangest training

camp. Snow three feet deep and O'Neal goes jogging throngh the winter wonderland like a lumber-jack trying to find a tree. Streisand, who naturally insisted on going along, sleeps in a log cabin barracks with 13 other train~es in various stages of undress-so that she will not compromise the fighter's spirit. The script is quite predictable. The performances are about what you would expect from two fine calibre stars, but the

magic of What's Up Doc? (the last time Streisand and O'Neal worked together) is missing. The film is really ruined by a lot of tasteless, banal humor. After toying with each other (mostly by abuse) through the whole film, Hillary and the kid finally make it-on the worst night possible. A foreshadow? No, the ending could be spied from miles.

The Metropolitan June27, 1979

MSC raises tuition continued from page 3 changes, if any, will be made. "UCD will stick to their old system because they probably had success with it," Johnson said. "At Metro we weren't that lucky. The students were taking advantage of a good system. Those who had their money up front were subsidizing the 15 percent or so who did not pay.''

"My greatest concern is that I'm afraid the students may not believe we are going to do this ("money-up-front" policy)," Johilson said. " I'm afraid they may think 'good old Metro wouldn't hold it against me if I took my time paying.' "Butwe~,'_:__hesaid.

Governor Lamm okays state loan program continued from page 2 Baldner cites as the state program's winning points: less time lag from application of a loan to approval, less paperwork for the lender and the student, and it i~ state specifice (it will be tailored to fit the lending laws of the State of Colorado, something the federal program cannot do). Baldner feels one reason private schools are so supportive of the program -is they have always seen the relationship between money and enrollment - a relationship relatively new to statesupported institutions. Also, public schools may be only lukewarm because of the possible administrative hassles involved, although these would be minimal, and they are just beginning to suffer drops in enrollment. Although administrators at the postsecondary level, Baldner said, seem to be opposed to the program, generally favoring a national loan bank, Congress has been supportive of the concepts since 1976, when it passed the ten percent default for reimbursement law. But that obligation ends in 1981, and may or may

not be reinstated. "We are a little concerned about the federal end of the partnership,'' Baldner said, "but we are counting on their continuing support . . . and decided to go ahead with the program now.'' She said Lamm will undoubtedly approve the bill. "He has been supportive of the program since the day it was first discussed," Baldner said. The new bureau to be created to handle the loans will be the Student Loan Guarantee Division of the Department of Higher Education. The current director of the Division of Higher Education will appoint the new director of the loan division, who will appoint his own staff, at first only two to three persons. Later, a technical staff and three or four regional staff members will be added. The regional staff members, Baldner said, will help to advise banks to manage the program. much of the paperwork and administrative functions, at least initially, may be contracted out to a local non-profit firms, she said.

continued from page 4 the plan " would permit voluntary prayer in the public schools" (Denver Post June 14). When the cosmetics are removed, it is obvious that the voluntary prayer is as dangerous as ethanol alcohol in booze one cannot digest, a locoweed to craze one while eating food _goodies or the new religious zeal mesmerizing Americans more deeply. Americans are already mesmerized into following rules by leaders everywhere instead of being led by personal principles of decencies to themselves and other persons. Walker is acting as being full of ethanol and locoweed in a supposition that prayer is not allowed when, where, why, how and for what and to whom one chooses. Regardless of the gnashing of teeth acts by Walker and millions of others, prayer is not disallowed to anyone anywhere anytime. Not even the classic cases of Schempp-or Murray do so. They only rule that prayers cannot be dictated by persons to other persons. Arguments by these cases fall into the ridiculous '!hen one studies them and discovers that objec-

tive views of religions actually are encouraged. It is from that step that Walker and 255 representatives who voted in favor of -his amendment stumble. Their stumble is that of the thoroughly indoctrinatedbrainwashed-pseudo-Christian: Pray, damn you, or I'll withhold from you what you need of me. The Walker amendment contains language to force the planned Department of Education to establish the "voluntary" prayer law or the department will not be funded by the House of Representatives. The Walker amendment is a sad commentary on his ability to do as voters have delegated to do in allowing all per- sons their Freedoms--not meditation and prayer by law-- of Religions. It is a sadder commentary on "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself". While you still have that self, please vote. Vote by voice, vote by letter or vote by only ballots. But vote. The choice is to be ruled by Walkers or stay alive. CalvinR. Wilson Voting MSC Student
