The fear of failing is a feeling of stress, uncertainty, confusion, anxiety, psychological doubt and emotional strain. It makes important decisions difficult. So, if you are having difficulty deciding on whether it's worth it to stay in college, you should be aware of the places where you can get help to make that decision.

Several women's groups met last week on the Boulder and Auraria campus' to brainstorm the plight of women against a back-drop of sexual discrimination law suits and dissatisfaction with the job market. Janis Bohan, professor of psychology and chairman of MSC's president's Advisory Council on Sex Equity, wouldn't comment last Friday on the meetings because they were still in progress, but she was very optimistic about their outcome. "Some very good things are corning out of the meetings but we are mid-way and I can't really talk about them now," she said. The meetings come at a time when at least two of the schools on the Auraria campus are involved with sexual discrimination suits - MSC has the most cases pending. Bill Moland, director of MSC's affirmative action program, said there is one case in federal court, at least one filed with the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, and one filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Dee Aday, director of UCD Women's Center, didn't know of any cases filed against UCD but thought there was at least one pending at the Boulder campus. Shyrel Copeland, director of CCD Women's Center, didn't know of any suits against CCD but had heard complaints from_students about faculty who had sexually harrassed them, not only at CCD, but at MSC and UCD as well. "But students are afraid to do anything about it," she said, "and they don't know how to deal with the subtle things." Educating women to deal with those types of situations is one function of the Women's Centers on the Auraria campus. All three provide personal and vocational counseling for women and information about career opportunities, support groups, and seminars and workshops on topics which concern women. Aday is a member of a committee at UCD on a "fact-finding mission" to look at the status of women. Her outlook for the future of women is pessimistic. "Women are still in dead-end jobs, and as the job market gets tighter it will get tighter for women," she said. Megan McClard, director of MSC Women's Center, said their office is also concerned with the difficulty women students have adjusting to college life. She said women returning to school often don't get encouragement from their families, friends and teachers to "take themselves seriously.'' She said many women are brought up to think of themselves in terms of their husbands' careers or their children's accomplishments. Patricia Ralston, a Women's Studies intern at MSC added women often feel guilty about going to school, especially if they enjoy it - they feel they don't have a right to enjoy getting their education. "It doesn't always have to do with what you know intellectually," Ralston said, "it's an instinctive feeling." Helping women return to school is an i.mportant function of MSC Women's

Auraria schools is surprising, it is still less than perfect. Doris Peters, director of contract personnel at MSC, said that 23 percent of the regular teaching faculty are women and 43 percent of the regular administrators are women. Although those figures look good statistically, Peters said many women administrators must generate their own salaries through federal and state grants. When those grants run out, they may find themselves without a job or with no chance of promotion.

"A lot (of female administrators) are in dead-end jobs,'' she said. Nereyda Bottoms, UCO affirmative action officer, said that as of April 1980,, UCD's work force was comprised of 51 percent women, but she stressed the figures include clerical jobs which are traditionally held by women. Women in the faculty comprise 31 percent. Bottoms said 48 pe"rcent of the student body are women and about half the graduate students are female. She said those are pretty good enrollment percentages, and UCO employs just about the number of women they should. " II they pass the ERA, who CAN I discriminate against?" ~

Center, McClard said, but an overall concern of the center is helping women in direct and practical ways to get good advice. One of the alternatives that Ralston and McClard mentioned was a Capital Hill apartment complex, Warren Village, where only single parents and their children may live. The complex offers support groups and a day-care facility among other things. Although everyone contacted agreed on the importance of changing the social stereotyping of women, the financial status of women is a tangible way to measure the progress of equality. "Discrimination still exists. There are very few changes in the job market," McClard said. Copeland said the center at CCD found women · were not getting administrative jobs after they graduate, even though they have a degree. She said they lack skills in areas such as budget management - an important part of some administrative jobs. CCD has an internship program where women can get "the feel" of such jobs. They also have what they call a "mentorship program" in which women can pattern themselves after successful women in their field of study. The CCD Center also has an informal network of women who meet periodically and have recently been studying the field of energy development to determine how women can become a part of Colorado's energy boom in more ways than just clerical jobs . Their reasoning is if thousands of jobs are going to be available, women should prepare themselves now. The Women's Centers are actively preparing women for the future, but some are concerned about the lack of role models for women to emulate .. Though. the amount of women employed by the

continued from page 1 sexually and ethnically. "No one bas any constitutional or other right to serve on a screening committee," Macintyre said. The faculty, he said, elected representatives from the various schools to serve on the committee "in violation of the request I made for suggestions from Brooks (Van Everen) of the names of faculty for the committee.'' Van Everen said the "selection of the committee was a bizarre process. I still to this day do not understand how some people were chosen by the President.'' The faculty resolution has objections to the size of the screening ' committee, which is comprised of 24 faculty, students, and staff. Van Everen, a committee member, said it is a "very, very large and awkward group." Macintyre said the group is so large because it is "broadly based and representative'' of the school. The resolution requests that Macintyre appoint a new selection committee, allow a minimum of three months for applicants to respond after publication of job availability, inclusion of letters of recommendation in the applications, corn11Jittee selection of the candidates visiting the campus and committee ranking of the finalist~. Van Everen said he was also concerned with the "breach of confidence" by the committee, despite the fact that Macintyre had stressed a need for confidentiality in the process - particularly because there are three internal candidates for the position. "Some faculty members have wanted to resign (from the committee) because they're so sick of what's going on," Van Everen said. Macintyre said he finds the violation ".of confideJw~· "reprt;l)~11sjl;>le . .I ~ade a

very strong statement about how important it was to maintain confidence." However. he said he had "no evidence at this point that it has affected (the validity oO the process. I would have to reserve judgement." Macintyre said he "hoped people would have more faith and trust in letting the process (to choose the vice president) work. So many of their colleagyes are involved." Van Everen said the faculty would have some involvement in the interviews of the three to five finalists for the position. "The selection of this person is of the utmost importance," he said. ''The person who is selected for thi_s position and their credibility with the faculty is extremely important." Michael Howe, former vice president of academic affairs, was forced to resign because he had lied about having a doctoral degree. Macintyre brought Howe with him from the University of San Francisco. Van Everen said the resolution stems from ''an ongoing suspicion . . . that sense of mistrust, that sense of uneasiness" that perhaps Macintyre will make .anothe poor choice in his selection of the vice president. The resolution passed by the Senate stated the Board of Trustees should be contacted if the ·recommendations made were not "substantially followed" by the president. Van Everen said Trustee Phillip Winslow had been sent a copy of the resolution. Macintyre said it "doesn't bother" him that the Trustees were contacted. "Everything gets sent to the Board. It's done here with abandon. I have the board's support on this and we're not changing (the process.)"

The Metropolitan, April 8, 1981

Guest Editorial Racism, falsehoods and smokescreens The purpose of this letter to the editor is twofold. First of all I would like to respond to the guest editorial in the April 1 issue of THE METROPOLITAN, an ironically appropriate day for this editorial to appear. In that editorial the statement was made that all of the deans except for one were hired by Dr. Netzel. This is an incorrect statement. In fact, all of the deans, except one, were hired either· before or after Dr. Netzel served as Vice President for Academic Affairs. Even while Dr. Netzel was serving as Acting President between the terms of Dr. Palmer and Dr. Macintyre, he approved the hiring of only one dean, and that person was reviewed and approved by Dr. Flemon, then Acting Vice President of Academic Affairs. Therefore, the notion that a hiring connection between the deans and Dr. Netzel is the reason for the President's difficulty is obviously false since it is predicated on erroneous information.

In addition, the insinuation that the deans do not support affirmative action concerns involving women, minorities and the urban role and mission of Metro is completely false. I have been in the deans' group for almost nine years and have found the deans completely dedicated to MSC and the goals which the students, faculty, administration and Trustees have established. The other matter I wish to address is an even more serious one. This relates to the charges of racism which have appeared in recent issues of THE

METROPOLITAN. No one denies that genuine affirmative action concerns exist at Metropolitan State College. These concerns need to be addressed in a professional manner. The President has established an Affirmative Action Task Force which is indeed looking into affirmative action problems at MSC. Continuation of the present racial tensions on campus generated by these charges can do

by S.G. Sunderwirth nothing but harm legitimate affirmative action concerns. It troubles me greatly to see racial tensions being generated on a campus where little or none had existed before, and the question "For what purpose?" must be asked. Other than some possible smokescreen effect, no one seems to really know. As Dr. Raab so eloquently pointed out in the April 1 issue of THE METROPOLITAN, we indeed cannot tolerate racism on this campus; but, on the other hand, we cannot permit unsubstantiated charges to be leveled against the majority of people at Metro State. Reading some of the articles which have appeared recently in THE METROPOLITAN reminds me of a famous quote by Albert Speer when he learned that, von Papen, Fritzsche • and Schacht were freed at Nuremberg when Speer was given 20 years: "So lies, smokescreens, and dissembling statements have paid off after all." Let us hope that this does not happen at MSC.

Erratum The phone number printed in last week's METROPOLITAN for pre-registration to the Eighth Annual Conference on Humanistic Education was incorrect. Call 629-3177. The article by Tom Fox, " Legislature n ixes creationism, " in last week' s METROPOLITAN was intended to be labeled as commentary rather than news.

Noel.makes history come alive l

,

by Randy Golkin

Auraria has many talented people inhabiting it's facilities and Thomas 路~ Noel, a man with a combination of skills, is one of them. ~ Noel, a plump jolly fellow who lives up to the spirit of his name, has written two books and teaches history part-time at UCDandMSC. One local organization showed how much they appreciated Noel's work by honoring him with a Downtown Denver &. Plaque Award. Downtown Denver In. . corporated, a non-profit organization composed of prominent business men thought Noel helped improve the quality of life in downtown Denver and that's what they're interested in. They presented the award to Noel at the Denver Art Museum in March in --honor of his writings, tours and classes. Noel, a Colorado native, shows respect for this state in everyth,ing he does, especially with his lectures and writings. In his most recent book, Denver: Rocky Mountain Gold, Noel's pride can be felt as he takes us back in time to when ic Denver first began with the 1859 Gold Rush boom. This picturesque book is filled with 500 photographs and illustrations of Denver

~

as it was in the horse and buggy days. When it was published last year and 10,000 copies were printed, Noel had no idea the book would be so successful that it would sell out. But it did, and now 10,000 more copies are being printed. The Denver Chamber of Commerce, who helped sponsor the book, liked it so ~uch they decided to use it as the official key to the city. So now whenever a prominent leader or businessman comes to Denver they will receive a copy of Denver: Rocky Mountain Gold for their personal library . Neol's first book, Richtofens Montclair: A Pioneer Denver Suburb, published in I 976, wasn't quite as popular but it a)so reflected his love for history. "History is fascinating, it's just not always presented well. It's \lSually written poorly and presented poorly," said Noel. Noel said many people think history is boring because they've learned it from dull text books and slide shows, so he uses a different approach to make people aware of history. He said all of his classes go on field trips because walking through an old building, seeing the ruins of a town or maybe talking to an 80-year-old regular in the neighborhood bar is what history is

LOO/E . connECTIOn/

all about. Noel depends on field trips for all of his classes. He tries to have at least two or three tours in each course. In fact, sometimes people in the city would join the class on a tour. Noel is well known in our community for his walking tours.

This summer Noel plans on teaching a course for the first time that will include a daily tour. It will be called the Colorado Experience and will be offered for two weeks in July, Mondays through Thursdays. "We will go to the mountains every class and tour a mine, look at some graveyards and experience the authentic

railroad rides," Noel said. "The class will visit Georgetown, Central City and some of the other sites in the area." Right now Noel is teaching Colorado History at UCD and Denver History at MSC. Noel, who was once a UCD student, also teaches Continuing Education classes such as Saloons of Denver (UCD) and Waking the Dead (DU). The Saloons of Denver class is basically what his third book, The City and the Saloon: Denver, will be about. "Sometimes I'll have a class meet in a bar because a bar is a good place to learn history if you talk to the old men who have been going there for years," Noel said. Noel likes the combination of writing and teaching, and plans to continue doing it right here on the Auraria campus for a long time. "I love teaching here because you're right in the city and instead of just talking about it, you can just walk downtown and see it - I depend on field trips' for my classes," he said. The only regret Noel has about Auraria is that UCD is moving out of it's building. "It's a tragedy to move out of this landmark (UCD) and into the factory-like new buildings - thank God for. Ninth Street, the saving architectural grace of this campus."

In search of a super hero: the weekend warrior It's not easy spying on a super hero. I've been shadowing her for six months now without much luck. But this time I think I've got her. Five more hours and the world will know the secret identity of Bertha Bucks, the Cosmic Cowgirl. Bertha, affectionately known as the weekend warrior, stalks the discos and bars of Denver, breaking the hearts of countless would-be cowboys. According to the legend, she first appears downtown at the crack of happy hour on Friday afternoons. After moving on to all the clubs in Glendale, she mysteriously vanishes Sunday night just before 60 Minutes. Many people believe that her irresistable powers are drawn from a strange white powder called 'disco dust,' that she absorbs from unsuspecting victims. Bertha has single handedly cured over 1,000 chauvinists and severely wounded the egos of 5,000 more. My latest adventure with Ms. Bucks began last Friday when I received an anonymous tip from a construction worker at a bar on Wazee St. "It's definitely her. She's beaten every one in the joint on the pool table for Long Island ice teas. At $3.25 a drink, we can't last much longer." Friday and Saturday nights brought me no closer to my elusive target. She was always a face in the crowd, just across the room, that seemed to vanish into thin air. My big break came while reading . ...

I caught her slipping away from a man who was nervously searching for his wallet. I snuck up on her and grabbed her from behind. We took a booth in the corner of the restaurant. In five hours I would find out her secret, well worth the $32 I had to spend on brunch, not including the bottle of-wine we shared. She was even more beautiful than I had im~ined, and she actually liked me. After the second bottle of wine ($12.95) she seemed to admit defeat. "Okay, I'll tell you everything. I'm really a dentist during the week. Got an office on Colfax. That's my Jaguar parked out front. Let's go over there now and I'll lubricate your gums." This was my dream come true. I called the waiter over and demanded the check. $57 bucks for brunch and all I had was $52.37. "Here are the keys to the Jag. I've got some cash stashed in the glove box. I'll keep the waiter busy 'till you come back." The next time I saw her face the police were dragging me away from a stolen Jaguar with the license plates BUCKS. The weekend warrior had victim 1001.

This is it, the commander thinks. The aliens took out three. other ships in the allied fleet, and the dirty bastards are moving into attack forma.tion again. This is it, he whispers, this is the kill. "Smart bomb 'em man!" shouts someone from the back. Foolhardy advice,· the commander sends the ship into a steep bank, a full reverse, and aces two aliens from behind. He doesn't see the drone mine until too late, however. As the ship disintegrates in a blaze of bright colors, the vanquished space commander's last words come through, loud and clear; "Anybody got another quarter?"

Besides Auraria, Pray runs machines "at (Community College of Denver) Red Rocks, Arapahoe Com--·· munity College, the Denver Institute of Technology, bars, fast food places, Pizza parlors, plus gay baths. And, I have a test out now on Village Inn Pancake Houses." Providing those machines, however, is far from cheap. When the pinball ' machine Eve! Kneivel came out a few years ago, Pray says, its price tag of $1200 seemed expensive. For the new video and pinball games, he notes, price tags run in the area of $2400. Returns on investment, go beyond simple 25¢ accounting. Pray estimates, as~ of February 1981, Auraria made up to $21,000 "their end" on the Student Center arcade. "I usually make $18,00020,000 out of Auraria," Pray adds, "which isn't bad for the time." Because of the lack of resident students and summer slack time, Pray says " Auraria revenue fluctuates. "$300 a day is a pretty good day riow," he states. "During summer, you might do $280 for the whole week." Such work, though, isn't bad for a frustrated educator. "I was going to be a geography teacher," says the 34-year-old Pray. "I graduated from Greeley (The University of Northern Colorado) and didn't get a teaching job right off, so I went to work for my dad." Pray's fattier, at the time, owned a vending and amusement concern. Pray became involved with the games end in 1970, and event ually phased out the straight vending work. " In 1975," he says, "I was involved in a couple of arcades that made money and I made $100,000. I incorporated the game thing into a separate company, then. "I'm what happens if you get a teaching certificate and don't teach." New developments in video and pinball games are usually kept very confidential, Pray says, until "they're in the bag." The . Japanese and French, he notes, like to · steal ideas in technological advancements. Some insights into the future of video coin-operated amusements, though, lie far from Denver. Pray points out the two biggest concerns in video are Atari and Midway . . . with Midway owned by "' Bally, the world's largest manufacturer of slot machines. The answer to tomorrow's games may be indicated by several ranks of gambling continued on page 8

In this era of mega,stars and target sales in music, surprises are truly surprises for totally unexpected results defy the careful preening of the public by recqrd corporations. Steve Winwood, with Arc of a Diver, gives one of those rare surprises. Within a few weeks of a rather unheralded release, Diver - and the single "V&ile You See A Chance" - took off in accumulating sales and air play . . . with the •album recently reaching number one on the Rolling Stone Top 100 chart. What happened? Winwood, with Arc of a Diver, produces nothing new - this is standard soft rock, with touches of pop and folk. Instead, Winwood hit The Formula. The Formula, to explain, is the combination of musical talent, technical recording excellence, and the good sense to be innocuous enough to gather a large audience. By playing non-offensive -

but engaging - music, practicioners of The Formula manage to cross traditional musical lines (rock, country, contem-. porary adult) in their listening audience . and sell a lot of records. Al Stewart used The Formula to the fullest in the late 1970's with Year of the Cat and Time Passages; more recent formula fellows include Gerry Rafferty ("Baker Street") and 1980's Grammy hog, Christopher Cross. However, Winwood's Arc of a Diver may end up above them all. Winwood owns a not-so-secret weapon against other users of The Formula -

talent. Through the Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith, and Traffic, Winwood cut a different path through the rock world. By subtle use of folk themes and jazz instrumentations, Winwood created his own brand of rock that still, for the most part, defies dating and sterotypes. Arc of a Diver shows insights into Winwood's talents, but also a canny perception of mass taste. The music of Diver Jacks any kind of extremism or experimentation; this, however, appeals precisely to the larger audience. Winwood's intricate instrumentation, along with touches of Traffic's old folksy jazz rock, helps the music above the boring stage and still appeals to the artist's traditional fans. Winwood's successful use of The Formula, intentional or not, presents itself in full force totally on Arc of a Diver; every song on the album maintains the same quality and appeal. In short, there's nothing "wrong" with this album. The perfection of Arc of a Diver proves to be superficial, however. Such captivation, as shown with Al Stewart, can only last so long - and Winwood's past recordings show his talents far outreach the work on Diver. Nevertheless, Winwood stands to make a goodly sum of money with this album -

something he deserves for back payment of his previous efforts: But how much of The Formula. work can he (and the public) stand? Another musician working on his own formula for success - with a snappy beat - is Tom Browne. By combining some hot jazz-funk with discoteque, this sharp

trumpeter put together "Funkin' For Jamaica" possibly the best single released in 1980. Now, in 1981, Browne's Magic should win more converts to his hip type of dance music. Produced by pop jazz notable continued on page 8

The Metropolitan, April 8, 1981

r---llZ~~-5~1tJL Move those feet to some Ska continued from page 7 Dave Grusin, Magic gives Browne more room to expand on the jumping sound of "Funkin." · While still playing somewhat to the sexist attitudes of discotheque (the hit single is "Thighs High - Grip Your Hips and Move"), Browne does play with more sophistication in other areas of Maxie. While "Let's Dance" and the title track provide for some complex dance

floor antics, the high point of the album comes with a Grusin-Browne acoustic duet (piano and trumpet) of Billie Holiday's "God Bless The Child." Along with some outstanding work on Bob James' recent All Around The Town, Browne's Magic shows funk - or at least this funky trumpet player won't go down with the demise of discotheque. Dance music, to twist the old legend, is here to stay.

Another form of dance music - Ska - currently enjoys a healthy revival in Britain. This Jamaican music of the midI 960's preceeded reggae and Rockers with the first combination of calypso and rock; the recent interest in Jamaican music by new wave practicioners brought Ska back into vogue. Dance Craze combines the cream of British Ska revivalists onto one record. As the soundtrack to a movie showcasing these bands, Dance Craze is an ex- • cellent sampler of jivin' music James Bond would've moved with in Doctor No.

Dance Craze features The Specials, Madness, The English Beat, The Selecter, Bad Manners, and The Bodysnatchers tearing .up the stages with 50 minutes of ..... solid live dance tunes. This is real toe-jam stuff - the kind of music everyone worked up a sweat to in 1965. Besides being a fine introduction into Ska music, Dance Craze takes the title as the year's ultimate party record. Take Dance Craze to the next gathering of , friends, slake down a few beers, put away all the breakables, and let loose. The floorboards will give way long before the good feelings end.
