Metropolitan State College has begun advertising for a new ,.vice president of academic affairs, but several faculty members fear the job description has been custom-tailored for a current member of the administration. In a Dec. 1 meeting with ~faculty from the School of Liberal Arts, MSC President Donald Macintyre was questioned about procedures he has started to find a replacement for Michael Howe. Howe resigned Oct. 27 after it was - discovered he had not completed the requirements for his doctorate. The faculty members wanted to know why the job description had changed from the one Howe was hired under. It was pointed out -f that in the 1979 description, additional requirements were a "demonstrated commitment to and successful involvement with innovative, non -traditional program development in an urban ' setting, especially in the area of lifelong learning/continuing education.''

MSC·to,ask·tor additional funds by Karen Breslin

MSC may receive an additional $265,000 from . the state legislature to defray the cost of this fall's enrollment increase. The six institutions in the Consortium of State Colleges (Mesa, Adams State, Western State and MSC) are funded as a block by the state legislature based on projected enrollments. A two percent enrollment increase (MSC's 19 percent increase alone exceeded that) at the Consortium institutions could mean a supplemental appropriation from the state legislature, probably in April, said Curtis Wright, vice president for business and finance. But, he cautioned, "We only have a tentative figure - we're just in the process of requesting the appropriation." Wright said increased enrollments for spring semester could increase the appropriation. A tentative breakdown of how the funds will be spent is being prepared by the business office to present to the Board of Trustees (MSC's governing board), Wright said. The bulic of the money, $162,000, would go into resident instruction (academic costs) to pay for additional faculty members, salary adjustments and supplies. Wright said the administration bas extended all half-year contracts for part-

time faculty and will probably hire eight faculty members for spring semester. Faculty salary adjustments have also been approved (for completion of degree or salary grievances) Wright said. "Most of these salary grievances deal with the hiring of women," who were hired at lower pay rates, Wright said. These adjustments will total between $7,000 to 8,000, Wright said, but could increase should the appropriations increase. The $365,707 appropriation would also end "a three-year starvation" for lab courses hit by past budget trimming, Wright said. "It's gotten to the point that those courses wouldn't be offered unless the supplies were beefed-up," he said. Another $49,000 has been targeted for administrative costs, including nearly $4000 in salary adjustments. Wright said additional hourly workers would be hired for the under-staffed business and admissions offices. Student Services (financial aid, placement center} will receive $46,000 of which $6,000 in salary adjustments for five financial aid employees hired at a lower rate than their counterparts in admissions or business offices, Wright said. Data processing will receive $8, 707 of the appropriation for processing additional students, he said. Wright stresses that these are

Minority business students organize Minority students at MSC are currently in the process of organizing an association for .MSC business students. Ron Lujan, Minority Coordinator for the Cooperative Education Program at MSC, conceived the idea of an association after noting that greater numbers of minority students were enrolling in the School of Business. Lujan then contacted minority students in the business field to see if they would be interested in forming an organization. He received a very enthusiastic response and the nucleus of the organization was formed. The students met on several occasions to draw up the by-laws of the

The Royal Foreman case -part four

Efforts to free Foreman begin byBrianJ. Weber An iron, barred door slammed shut and echoed so long and loudly it seemed as if there were no life to absorb the sound. A second door rolled open, then closed, that empty mechanical echo clanging once again through the corridors of the State Correctional Facility in Canon City. Roy Foreman, number 46449, has been here for six months. For a year and a half before, the former UCD student was confined in the Arapahoe County jail. He is scheduled to remain in prison for the rest of his life. Foreman was convicted in September 1979 of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in the January 1979 shooting death of Dale Allen Stubblefield. He claimed then - and maintains now - that he is innocent. Robert. Shaw, the actual killer, confessed to the crime. He has exonerated Foreman of any involvement in the shooting. Shaw was not tried on conspiracy charges. He was convicted of second-degree (unpremeditated) murder and sentenced to 38 to 50 years in Canon City. The case raises some disturbing questions: How could Foreman be convicted of helping Shaw plan a murder when Shaw was acquited of that crime? How could Foreman have conspired with the man who did the shooting when the prosecutors dropped that charge against Shaw? The humiliation and degradation of prison life work their misery on a man. Worry and concern for his wife, Nellie, and his two children were eroding Foreman's perspective, he said. He thought they would all be better off if their relationship was severed. Nellie disagreed and they struggle to keep the family together. Every Sunday she and the kids drive the two hundred mile round trip from Denver to visit Roy. Separation from loved ones is the hardest part of incarceration, the Foremans say. To alleviate the tedium of 'doing time,' Roy works as a welder in the machine shop, earning two dollars a day for work on the new "close-security" unit of the prison. "They've got all the inmates helping the keepers build a new cage," Roy noted. At night he takes classes taught by instructors from the University of Southern Colorado. He has developed a renewed interest in history, especially pertaining to the legal system. "Injustice is not new for the minority American," Roy observed. "The justice system has proven down through the years to be unfair, biased and probably worst of all, racist. I used to speculate about what was really happening, but now I am learning the hard way; the real truth." Even though he occupies himself as much as possible, he cannot avoid the hostility and racism afflicting the captive audience. "They have guys in here that have 'white power' tattooed all across their chests," Roy says. "I think it's an inferiority trip. They hate this and they hate that. There's an awful lot of selfdestruction here." Racism pits the inmates against each

Roy Foreman, number 46449, has been in prison for six months. He is scheduled to remain there the rest of his life. preceedings and termed them "the most blatant miscarriage of justice to occur in a Colorado courtroom in my memory.'' Groff asked the Chief Justice to review Greene's handling of the case due to what Groff felt was "Greene's antagonistic behavior toward the defense." "The total refusal of the judge to remedy this greivous sentencing error when the opportunity again presented itself yesterday (June 2, 1980) is indicative of a dangerous bias that cannot be tolerated," Groff wrote. "I truly fear for the life of any black person who unwittingly finds him or herself in judge Greene's courtroom." Hodges replied that the courts would consider Foreman's appeal in due time. Governor Richard Lamm has also been made aware of Foreman's situation as a result of letters urging Lamm to use his power to pardon persons convicted unjustly or commute (shorten) their sentences. Lamm's opinion on the case was stated in a September 30, 1980 letter to Foreman from Steven Hutt, Assistant Director of the Citizens' Advocacy Office, following a confrontation in the Governor's office with Foreman's wife and members of the Denver chapter of the International Committee Against Racism. "It would be premature," Hutt said. "For the Governor to intervene ... before the Court of Appeals makes a decision on your case ... Executive consideration at this time would not only be inappropriate; it might, ironically, be counter-productive ... There are conflicting court decisions as to whether Executive action by the Governor which shortens a sentence pre-empt appellate judicial review of that sentence. •The Governor, obviously will not take an actions which would preclude full judicial review of your case. Should judicial review of your case fail to bring you relief, you will still have the option of seeking Executive relief." According to Foreman's attorney, Michael Heber, Deputy State Public Defender, "there was absolutely no legal

other, Foreman says, while drugs engage an inmate against himself. Despite the overwhelming despondency of prison life, Foreman maintains · a positive attitude. " Anger and bitterness cause frustration," he explained. "Fear causes most of the problems in here. Fear is an illusion created out of our imagination, but that's what makes it so dangerous." Foreman also feels he owes it to himself, his family, and others working for his release to remain optimistic. "It is up to me to survive and endure," Roy avers. "A lot of people are pulling for me. Would they understand me coming out of here, because of their efforts, a broken, angry, bitter and vengeful man? I strive to be stronger emotionally and spiritually. I owe them at least that much." Roy Foreman is not bitter. He is terribly confused. He knows why he ended up in prison but cannot grasp how it could happen. "The police told me that I had nothing to fear from the courts if I did not pull the trigger," Roy recalls as his voice cracks and his eyes tear up. "We now know that was a lie." Foreman was convicted mainly on the testimony of Robe.rt Shaw's girlfriend, Anita Soffa. She did not witness the shooting. She has since renounced her statement to police that implicated Shaw. She was only able to place Foreman at the scene and could add only that Foreman told her "Annie, get out of here and get some help" shortly before the fatal shooting. The discrepancies of the two convictions and sentences were pointed out to judge Richard Greene at Foreman's sentencing hearing last February and also at a hearing on Foreman's motion for a new trial on June 2, 1980. Greene refused to grant a new trial. He sentenced Foreman to life in prison. State Senator Regis Groff also attended that hearing. On June 3, Groff wrote to Chief Justice Paul Hodges of the Colorado Supreme Court stating he felt "total dism~y and anger" about the

merit to this argument.'' Heber said Hutt contacted him on behalf of the Governor following the September 17 rally. In a subsequent letter Heber claimed, "I offerred to do a legal memo on the point, and asked you (Hutt) to let me know if it looked like this issue would stand in the way of a commute consideration. At this point, my offers having been ignored, I would only ask that I be supplied whatever legal authority you based your statement on ... I also do not understand .. .if the Governor's refusal to consider Mr. Foreman for a commute while his case is on appeal is based on another legal reason or the Governor's preference... why would it be "premature" and "inappropriate?" So far the governor's aide has not answered that question to the satisfaction of those concerned about Foreman's plight. The correspondence raises the implication that the Governor's office is sending out false or inaccurate information despite the warning from Foreman's attorney. On Dec. l , Hutt again said the matter is one of legal opinion. "I think it is an unusual case," he said. There are good grounds for appeal." Hutt also said he did not think the Governor was personally aware of the Foreman case. Not waiting for an explanation. from Lamm, the Denver chapter of the International Committee Against Racism has begun a campaign to have Foreman released. INCAR, which describes itself as a multiracial organization of workers, students and soldiers dedicated to fighting racism, has held several rallies demanding Foreman's release. The most recent demonstration was on November 29 in front of the Governor's mansion. At another held near the State Judicial Bµilding, Douglas Vaughan, a former journalism instructor at MSC whose article on the Foreman case appeared in the October issue of the Denver Magazine, was arrested for allegedly disturbing the peace on September 17. Meanwhile, Roy Foreman remains in prison. It may take more than a year for Roy Foreman's case to reach the appeals court. "The injustice that exists for me is hard to understand." Roy explained, "Perhaps it exists because I am black or maybe because I am a man of concern and self-respect. The only thing for certain is that it does exist. I want to live again with my family, and people who care for me. There is not much more worth being alive for. "And when I get our of here," Roy continued, "I hope this gives me a voice to do something. My case is only the tip ofcan iceberg." . The Auraria chapter of the International Committee Against Racism is waging a campaign for the immediate release of Roy Foreman. People interested in helping can contact INCAR at 2239 E. Colfax Ave. Denver, Colo., 80206 orca/1320-0565. Roy Foreman can be contacted by mail: #46449 Box JOJO Canon City, Colo. 81212.

Altruists and adventurers encouraged to volunteer by Joan Conrow Uncle Sam wants you! No not for the U.S. Army, but for . the two 'federally funded service agencies, Peace Corps and VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America). That is, you're wanted if you have a skill or a degree, and most importantly, a sincere interest in helping people, according to Dave Falconieri, recruiter and · former VISTA volunteer. The two agencies are looking for someone who is "interested in volunteering their time to help people who are living in poverty to help themselves," said Falconieri, who was recruiting for the agencies on the Auraria campus last week. But, said Falconieri, a skill or a college degree is needed in addition to altruism. He said admission into the Peace Corps and VISTA "is pretty open, but there is competition.'' Falconieri said the Peace Corps is considered the "more glamorous" of the two agencies, but it only has about 1,800 more volunteers than VISTA. VISTA recruits are sent to any of the fifty states, while Peace Corps volunteers are sent to 58 "Third World countries" Falconieri said. Although volunteers may request to be sent to a certain area, Falconieri warns that neither organization is a "travel agency." Assignments are made by mat-

ching a skill with a request, so volunteers are sent where they are needed, rather than where they would necessarily like to go, he said. "In the Peace Corps you have a 5050 chance of being sent where you want to go" Falconieri said. "In VISTA it's easier' to match your skill with where you want to go, so you have about a 90 percent chance of being sent where you want." And, while the Peace Corps asks for a two year "committment" and VISTA asks for one year, Falconieri said there are ways of being sent home "if you're miserable in your assignment. It's not like the Army.'' However, it is like the Army in that a volunteer is expected to be on call seven days a week, 24 hours a day, Falconieri said, although "the hours are v_ery flexible, depending on what your assignment is." It's also similar to the Army in that it doesn't pay too well, but does provide free medical and dental coverage to volunteers, as well as transportation to your assignment, and paid vacations . . Falconieri said the Peace Corps gives recruits a living allowance ''that is usually a decent salary because the cost of living is so low" in the countries where the volunteer is sent. VISTA volunteers are given a monthly stipend that is prorated to the cost of living in the area they are assigned, he said.

Dave Falconieri: "It's not like the Army." An "adjustment allowance" is given That is probably because volunteers to volunteers upon completion of their are encouraged to concentrate on helping assignment, Falconieri said.

Editorial You won't have Sal to kick around by Sal Ruibal This is it, folks. My tenure as editor of The Metropolitan is almost over. You won't have Sal Ruibal to kick around anymore. At last, I can write what I want, close the office door and not have to worry about the nasty letters that will come in. So there. Let's start at the top. Our basic premise will be "The world is screwed up." Why is the world screwed up? That's easy: people. Have the cows screwed things up? Have dogs screwed things up? No. People have made a mess of our little planet. Trouble, trouble everywhere. The simple solution would be to get rid of the people, but that would not be fair. My dear grandmother has never hurt as much as a fly in her long, blessed life. She doesn't deserve to get punished along with Ted Bundy and Dick Lamm. The process of deciding who should get snuffed would become political and politics is one of our greatest problems. I guess this is just not practical. Cancel the apocalypse, please. Okay, we are stuck with the human race. Now what can we do to make it better? All the great teachers in

bomb also goes to church every Sunday. Such is life on our dismal speck of cosmic dust. As long as there are ultra-idiots like the neutron bomb designers running around, there is little we, as individuals, can do to make the whole world safe, peaceful, and happy. However, there is much that we can do to achieve those goals right here in our little world of Auraria.

salary? In your heart of hearts, your most personal, private place, can you say that you earn every dollar you make? How about student government? Are you in office to serve all the students, or are you there to make sure that your particular area of interest gets funded? Are you there because you are really interested in seeing that the students get the most for their student fee dollar or are you there to get the most student fee dollars you can get your hands on? Once again, look into yourself and answer honestly. And you there, the student who trudges to class and work and home. Do you really give a damn about any of this? Do you really do anything besides sit on your butt while your tax and tuition dollars are burned up. Oh, you love to bitch. You love to gripe and moan about this and that, but do you ever do anything about it? Rarely, if ever. If you are honest in expressing your desires to those in positions of authority, will they respond in kind? Let me be honest: probably not. Not right now, anyway, but maybe, someday.

history (not history teachers, dummy!) have said the answer is •'Love one another.'' Sounds pretty good, huh? Unfortunately, most of these teachers also said "Let's wipe out those infidels who don't believe in our philosophy of love. Let's torture them until they can see that we mean business when we say 'I love you.' " Hold it don't start clucking your tongue. None of you are inn~cent.

For some odd reason, he will grow tomatoes. these are the folks who get more than their share of life's material pleasures. Do you think there might be a connection here? One way to reach Auraria Nirvana is to always tell the truth. I'll start off: No, we are not out to get President Macintyre fired. We are not out to get Dr. Rhody McCoy, either. We just wanted to know why these administrators were making over forty thousand dollars a year. We wanted to know what these guys do to earn such huge salaries. Is that too much to ask from our employees? "None of you are innocent. Put ' If Michael Howe had told the truth when he apyour self-righteousness back in your plied for his job, all of us would have been spared a lot wallet with your other closely held of grief.

What I don't like are the accusations from MEChA and UMAS that our reports on Dr. McCoy were "racist." It is the ultimate in cynicism to excuse the throwing of forty thousand dollars down a hole because Dr. McCoy is black. That money could be used to benefit minority students in a much more constructive manner than lining the pockets of administrators.

"'

It has been my experience that people will do nothing unless their backs are against the wall. In fact, most people will not do a thing unless they are tied to the wall, blindfolded and presented with a final cigarette. I hate to be the one to tell you this, but do you prefer your final cigarette filtered or unfiltered? What size blindfold do you wear? Never mind, one size fits all. How we deal with our little problems at Auraria will be good practice for the really tough ones to come. If we can learn how to live in harmony, recycle our waste, learn and teach and share our many histories, we will have gone farther than most human societies. Gee, maybe we can get a government grant? The Metropolitan is a tool for achieving those goals. This newspaper can be our town hall, our village green. We can talk about things in this paper that are of importance to our little world of Auraria.

''As long as there are ultra-idiots... . running around, there is little we can do to make the whole world safe, peaceful and happy.''

I

It is my sincere hope that this newspaper will con-

tinue to serve as a source of honest information for the faculty students and staff at Auraria. I also hope that the students whose fee money supports the operation of this newspaper take advantage of the open forum our letters section offers. The world is screwed up, but it really doesn't have to stay that way.

Letters Aurarians plagued by "mind-sickened" thieves Aurarians, over the past year, have been plagued by a pestilence which is rapidly reaching epidemic proportions. Countless students have virtually had their lives destroyed as they have fallen prey to this parasitic disease. The disease to which I am refering is theft. This last Monday night, I had the pleasure of attending a UCO electronic music ensemble concert. Shortly after the concert, two of the performers discovered that their purses bad been stolen from the equipment storage and repair room. I can think of nothing good to say about a human being (i'f indeed that can be said of him) who derives pleasure from inflicting gross inconvenience and hardship on another. Any person who can justify in his or her own mind, stealing from others, is sick. There is nothing sane about ripping off tape decks from cars because "someone stole yours." Understandably, as students, we are nearly all strapped for money. However, the theft of a wallet, a purse, or a backpack inflicts far more hardship than the mere loss of a few dollars. In this particular Monday night incident, several irreplacable items were lost, including a set of tapes which represented an archive of student music recording projects; there are no additional or duplicate tapes. To me, the thought of hundreds of hours of student work lying in the bottom of a dumpster somewhere is most depressing. This says nothing of the frustration and expenses that these victims experience in replacing lost identification, keys, credit cards, check books, and various other essentials to daily existence. Many students blame campus security; others blame the students who are foolish enough to leave their belongings unattended. Regardless of where the blame is laid, the fact is something needs to be done to at least

deter the activities of these mind-sickened selfish individuals. Despite "shoestring" budgets there are a number of things that can be done. Students should be more responsible for their own and other's property, but I feel that the administration should take some active measures here, too, and soon! Randy Espinosa

Dear Fellow Students: I am writing this letter to inform you of my candidacy for the MSC Student Affairs Committee. If elected I will strive to represent all of my fellow students the fairest way possible. After being an active MSC student for 2 Yi years I believe I have a well-rounded background in this institution's policies and budgets. PLEASE VOTE FOR ME. Yours Truly, Randy Golkin

National Association of Broadcasters (the industry lobby) don't think so. They care more about the sponsors than they do about the public. More commercials mean higher profits. There are those who will say that competition will pick up where regulation left off. The trouble is, free speech should never be an economic issue, and this constitutional right should not be bartered away to the whims of the marketplace. The status of the FCC Notice, (BC Docket No. 79219) as opf 11/13/80, is that the FCC staff is reviewing the pros and cons and will turn it over to the FCC commisioners within the next six months for a final decision. There is still time to influence the commission's decision by voicing your protest to Chairman Charles D. Ferris, FCC, room 814, 1919 M Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20554. Also write your Congresspersons. Thank you for your consideration. Donald Gaeddert

Metropolitan State College Denver, Colorado 80204 Dear Dr. Macintyre: I~ has come to our attention concerning the strong standing you hold on Minority issues, especially that of hiring more Chicanos on the staff. We would like to express our thanks and gratitude. As M.E.Ch.A. and UMAS members we would like to lend our support to your policies as well as to your efforts in eradicating racism from this campus. Unfortunatly racism prevades this institution and is evident in the newspaper article such as that of the investigation of Mr. Rhody McCoy, and the total lack of commitment on the part of the white male Deans to hiring of Minorities and Chicanos of MSC. We hope that the rest of the students take a look around and see what is apparent in the center of Metropolitan State College. Sincerely, Rebecca Marquez Chairperson M.E.Ch.A.

FCC plan threatens individual liberties

Walk-Jog-a-Thon coverage blasted

It has come to my attention that there is a plan by the Federal Communications Commission in Washington, D.C. which threatens our First Amendment liberties, and I wonder why I haven't heard anything about it in the media. Specifically, this plan would deregulate radio programming by 1) no longer requiring news, public affairs or other informational programming, 2) no commercial limits - broadcasters would be free to air unlimited commercials, 3) no requirement to ascertain the needs of the local community, and 4) no requirement to keep records of programming. First, lets not get into an argument over the popular deregulation movement. Public airwaves are a limited and finite resource. Until every citizen in this country can have equal access to an airwave of their own, there must continue to be a way in which we determine who gets a public airway and some rules in how they are used. In theory, radio stations are given the privilege to use public airwaves in return for a commitment to show some concern for the public they serve. That sounds fair to me. I value public affairs programming and my right to be heard on the radio. There is so little access for the general public as it is. Now the FCC prnposes to eliminate it altogether. And it is exactly this type of deregulation which will allow abuse and misuse without any means of checking up on a radio stations performance . Sounds crazy, but apparently the FCC and the

The First Annual MSC Walk-Jog-a-Thon deserved more coverage in The Metropolitan than it was given. There was no coverage the week prior to the event to encourage enthusian (sic) among the student body. The photo in last week's issue (Nov. 12) was nice, but no identification of the man and child. I would have like to seen a big photo spread of the participants from all "walks" of life, including the KIMN Chicken and our own flesh and blood MSC Roadrunner. A dedicated journalism photographer could have had a field day. Four hours wouldn't have been too long to get some good photos of active MSC students participating for their own organization or club. Our club, Hospitality, Meeting and Travel Administration (HMTA), really enjoyed ourselves. We had cheerleaders, our people wore aprons with our sponsors names on them - and we had our own photographer. Becky lmatani and her staff are to be commended for their detailed organization and enthusian (sic) for the event. As of Thursday, November 20, 1980, pledges totaled $23,408.99. Thanks to all sponsors! ~ Let's do it again next year - Everybody! Sincerely, Mary P. Sharp The Walk-Jog-a-Thon received more coverage than most events on the Auraria Campus. The event was covered in the calendar section as well as an advance feature story. There are many activities that receive little or no space in the paper because of space limitations. -Ed.

Parking a'hassle for cyclists by Robin Heid Through a combination of oversight and misunderstanding, parking for Auraria motorcycle riders has been less pleasant than it could have been over the last couple of years . The campus has several benefits available for commuters using the fuel-efficient two-wheelers, but they are not widely known, and this has created some difficulties between riders and parking officials. The problem stems generally from a dearth of interest in and knowledge of motorcycles. Until recently, bikes were noisy, unruly beasts ridden by a few hardy souls on the periphery of society. All that changes with the advent of quiet, easy-to-operate motorcycles and the sudden rise in fuel costs. Their popularity has grown meteorically and all segments of the population are now represented in _g the ranks of motorcycle riders. More are ~ joining each day, too, and it is here the ~ heart of the problem lies. ~ , AHEC transportation documents, for example, don't even mention motorcycles and, unlike other forms of transportation Oike car and van pooling), no ''They turn the sprinklers on next to the bikes ... and niy plan bas been drawn up to deal with helmet fills up with water.'' them. An Auraria official explained why. "It's a matter of percentages," said public relations director Bonnie McCune. "Until the last couple of years, there somewhere else."

he described that plan as temporary and felt it would probably not be carried out now that a better use had been found for the area. Auraria's parking office has found other holes in their parking system and it is trying to improve them. The main problem areas involve paid lot ticket procedures, and the Auraria parking regulation pamphlet. "A lot of people get citations in paid lots because the tickets blew off their bikes or someone removed them . This used to be a problem, but our parking referee, Dan Rich, is now very sympathetic to motorcyclists in this regard. If they bring in a ticket receipt, he'll dismiss it right there." 路 Thompson said he has the authority to dismiss citations involving tickets, too, and suggests motorcyclists visit him at the parking office between 2 and IO pm if they have a problem. If he's not in, though, the clerks will have riders fill out a written appeal form. The other area of difficulty is the parking regulation pamphlet, which has an omission and a typographical error relating to motorcyclists. Parking in attended lots is only 25 cents for motorcycles but that isn't listed in the pamphlet. And on the map of campus parking, a sentence referring to motorcycles states that "these vehicles can park in striped corners or any lot with permit." The word "or" should have been "of" but as it stands, the phrase seems to mean parking in striped areas is all right, permit or not. Thompson sees it otherwise. "It's not fair to park in some striped areas for free when other people have to pay for the same privilege. I think they're asking for trouble if they park there. The court will decide on intent, not on whether there's a typo in the parking manual. And we' ll definitely cite anyone who parks in a striped area that blocks handicapped access." Thompson went on to say the publication probably won't be reprinted until next fall because of cost considerations, but said the missing data referring to motorcycles would be included. "We'll take care of that typo, too," be said with a smile. Parking at Auraria is generally a headache for everyone. Odd street patterns and major thoroughfares, coupled with Auraria's status as a commuter institution, magnify the problem beyond the bounds of the average university or college. But AHEC officials ~e working on 'it constantly, seeking new ways to make their system more equitable and less aggravating for everyone. Their progress with motorcycles has been good in this respect. Bob Thompson and others have seen ways motorcycles can be integrated into the overall parking plan in a fashion helpful to all, and they've acted on it. They're not finished, either. Both the parking office and AHEC's executive director's ,office are actively seeking methods for increasing and encouraging the use of motorcycles and mopeds by students and staff at Auraria, and anyone with ideas or suggestions is invited to contact AHEC officials.

Academic assistance .. available to students by Cindy Hosoya . In a world of impersonal dealings with computers, the MSC Academic Advising Center is a personable oasis for new students during registration and for ~ students throughout the year. Walking into the center, located in room 102 of the central classroom building, students may find a refuge from the sometimes frenzied chaos outside its doors. The reception area has brightly painted walls and colorful posters. Table lamps and plants make the rooms more pleasant than most administrative offices. The center deliberately makes itself more appealing to students. "People don ' t feel comfortable reciting their life history in front of everyone in line," said John Mont~omery, an advisor at the center. The Advising Center does handle some matters that are personal to students, and it handles them face to face without impersonal windows betwee~ them. In addition to organizing the orientation/advising program for freshmen and transfer students, the center provides ongoing academic advising throughout the year, especially for those students who have not declared a major. The orientation program consists of a brief slide presentation and a packet of several advising resources such as the cOllege bulletin, student handbook and

He also thinks it provides good experience "in terms of knowledge of the world and other cultures."

He said they had never recruited at Auraria before, but would be back next February. He said he hopes response is a little better next time.

Naisse said the Advising Center is one of the few places a student can have a private conversation regarding his academic career: The center tries to provide students with an advisor they can get to know. "We pride ourselves on personal involvement," Naisse said, "It's really important with commuter students to feel there's someone he can talk to."

Those little adhesive things have become America's answer to the U.S. Embassy wall in Iran.

More jive talkin' on all that jazz I

by Emerson·Scbwartzkopf Reviewed this week: 80/81/Pat Metheny/ECM-2-1180 .MR. HANDS/Herbie Hancock/Columbia/JC 36578 ODORl/Hirosbima/Arista AL 9541 ago (THE A few weeks METROPOLITAN, November 12), this column dealt with the problems in jazzrock fusion music. Pat Metheny's 80181 iJlaY not answer all the concerns of 1980s

fusion, but it shows there's hope. On 80181, Metheny eschews the line recently taken by Larry Carlton, Chick ~Corea, and other fusion artists. 80181 is

an album working more with traditional jazz concepts than rock or Latino influences; and, the music works. For Metheny, unlike other jazz fusionists, recognizes on 80181 one of the key points of jazz itself: freedom. Unlike the highly structured and polished works of others, Metheny's music on this album remains basic, rough, and ready for· any musician in his group to take off on a personal statement of theme. 80181 works in this freer aspect partly because of Metheny, but his group contributes more to this concept. Metheny often becomes overshadowed by the other musicians - most notably saxophonists Dewey Redman and Mike Brecker - and the spotlight moves away from one of fusion's premier guitarists. The music, though, becomes more of a team effort instead of five soloists looking for a break. The interplay between musicians on 80181, with Metheny content to back up along with an occasional lead, gives the album a pleasing, intimate feel. The group cameraderie works best on the album's first piece, "Two Folk Songs (1st)." Metheny's 12-string rhythm guitar (with a spot solo here and there) teams with Jack DeJohnette's drumming and Charlie Haden's bass to give an excellent backup for Mike Brecker's lively

interpretation of the song's theme. Brecker's solo, although restrained if comparc;d to an Anthony Braxton, nevertheless pushes "Two Folk Songs (1st)" to a high unmatched on the rest of 80181. The inspired playing and whistleable theme of the first song are hard to follow, and Metheny never seems to equal this occasion. However, the remaining three sides of the double-album contains some fine work by Metheny and his group, with great interplay between Metheny and Rodman on the title track and with all five members on "Open." Fans of Return to Forever or other fusion groups may find 80181 slightly esoteric in its freer direction. That looser structure, though, is the power behind Pat Metheny's new work. Although some of the selections drift into cocktail lounge jazzsnore, 80181 shows moments where jazz-rock fusion can and does improve in style. Herbie Hancock, a leader in jazzfunk fusion, can sometimes generate the excitement found on Metheny's 80181. Mr. Hands, Hancock's newest release, unfortunately remains too slick to be thrilling. Although above the elevator music of Chuck Mangione, Hancock's Mr. Hands never rises above the jazz-funk

patterns set as far back as Headhunters. Hancock stays in his proven style with Mr. Hands, except for moving more into being his own band . ht h'hi/ I

Hancock utilizes a number of electronic keyqoard instruments (including, strangely, an Apple microcomputer) to synthesize multi-instrumental sounds, ala Stevie Wonder. One song completely performed by Hancock, "Textures," effectively uses the electronic sound in producing an eerie, dreamlike mood. The rest of Mr. Hands could be filed "The Classic Herbie Hancock," easily mixed up in any record collection with a continued next page

2001: A trek strikes ·back? by Tace Hedrick

.. In 1968, a fourteen-year old sci-fi sat watching the first big science .fiction movie she had ever seen. When it was over, she was slightly di.sillusioned - she hadn't seen any ahens, and the people in the movie were dres~ed in a disappointingly mundane fashion. N~t only that, but she didn't understand it. 1980: that same sci-fi buff sits and watches the same movie - 2001: A Space Odyssey. By now, she has Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back, Star Trek, et~. under her belt. Has Kubrick's masterpiece stood up under the test of time? For those of you who have never seen 2001, or possibly (can it be so?) are too young to have seen it when it first came out, a brief synopsis: the movie presents several monoliths, one on earth, one. on the moon, and one orbiting Jupiter. These monoliths have been placed by extraterrestrials to impart the ~rst seeds of dominance and intelligence m man. They lead him, in the twenty-first ce!ltury, fro~ the moon to Jupiter. The thud monolith awaits man there to take him on a trip through time and space. . Throughout the film, Kubrick combm~s ~he metaphysical with the practical untJI, m the final scene, he takes us into

af~cionado.

the monolith itself to find an unborn ~hild with eye~ wide open, floating gently m space, lookmg as though it is contemplating things no man has ever seen. Although 2001 is at least twelve years old, technically it stands up to the most up-to-date filming and special effects this viewer has seen. True, there are no exotic aliens or exci.ting battles, but the orbiting space station, moon shuttle and spacecraft are as sophisticated as the ones shown today. As a matter of fact, the interior of the . Jupiter-bound ship is more functional and reasonable than the fantastic interiors we are used to seeing in, say, Star Wars or The Empire Strikes Back. The trip with the last monolith through space and time is done with a comb!nation of computer graphics and beautiful closeups of swirling, dissolving colors and shapes, in a far better sequence than any on the Enterprise's trip in Star Trek. At one point, we are taken over the surface of a planet; the landscape crawls and glows with neon colors that are hot, bright, and utterly different. . The underlying idea, too, is different - 1t may seem strange to combine spaceships and unborn children but Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke' (the author) wante~ to prov~ke thought. They wanted us to mdulge m a more sophis-

ticat~ k~nd of thinking than is usually r~qmred m the more familiar science fic-

t10n films, with their clearcut war between good and evil. We never truly get to know any of the characters, which enables us to make our. own decisions about what's happerung, and to form our own fudgments. ts. · -

. 2001: A Space Odyssey is not dated m al!y sense of the word. It is a timeless movie that makes you actually want to go home and contemplate the mysteries of the universe; it is recommended to anyone, sci-fi fan or not.

Jazz continued from page 11 ~e~ previous albums. Nearly all the music is listenable, and at times very good but never notable. This album should b~ the soundtrack to a good, hip detective action movie. The group Hiroshima offers a strange twist to jazz-funk fusion with som.e. ·Oriental flavoring. Using ~raditional Japanese musical styles and mstruments, Hiroshima makes some unusual - and exciting - music. Odori follows in the vein of Hiroshima's debut album of last year V.:ith some favorable changes. The group ditched the pseudo-jazz vocal stylings smacking of the Manhattan Transfer and concentrated on a more funky instru: mental sound with heavier rhythms.

DCPA salutes Katherine Hepburn The screen career of Katherine Hepburn will be reviewed the month of December when the Denver Center Cinema presents 23 of her feature films. Such favorites as The African

Queen, Morning Glory, The Philadelphia Story, and Long Day's Journey Into Night will be shown.

All shows are in the Frank Ricketson Hiroshima away from a jazz Cinema, 14th and Curtis streets in Denclassification, but the new rhythm and blues sound of Odori shows the band's ver.
