··MSC enrollment' rises, funds ·drop by Brian Coffey-Weber

.....Though MSC has experienced a ~~althy enrollment increase this fall ironically it is suffering from a lack of money. That, according to Curt Wright, acting MSC president, is 911e of the hazards of belonging to the Consortium of State Colleges. "Thi.S year, yes it would be bet-

-tCurt Wright, interim MSC president

ter for MSC not to be in the Con.. sortium," Wright said. "Two or three years ago no. The overall answer is that we're better off in the Consortium." "It is a pooling of resources," Wright added. That pooling of resources with the other Consortium schools may not drown MSC this year but the

Auraria school could- use a monetary lifejacket. . MSC enjoyed an increase of 300 resident and 15 non-resident students over its projection bringing .its Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) to 10,365. The remainder of the Consortium was not as fortunate. And therein lies MSC's dilemma. Because of lower enrollments and/ or inadequate mix of resident and higher paying non-resident students at the other three schools, the Consortium is less ·$353,000 it had hoped to coliect ~ . from tuitions. Due to the problems plaguing its sister schools MSC must now settle for 26 percent less money than it needs and ..is entitled to. "We've had some setbacks at the other schools that have spilled over and effected us," Wright said. • That spillage has ·rippled causing a siphoning effect on MSC. Wright says MSC realistically needs $600,000-$700,000 but it will -only receive $491,000. This

allocation is included in a ·report being submitted to the Consortium's Board of Trustees Oct. .29. If . the board has any qualms about the amount it may be reevaluated. "It's not to .-my liking but I am accepting it with some hesitation and I think it's fair within certain limits," Wright said. "I think it squeezes Metro fairly hard, but I can't say it's completely inappropriate." To offset the shortage Wright plans to cutback on: capital outlay (remodeling and equipment purchases), student and administrative services and data processing services. _ The MSC advertising campaign - geared to attract more students - has also been scraped. Wright added that vacant positions will not be filled and that the travel budget for faculty and staff will be drastically slashed. "It looked as if we were going to have a very prosperous year," Wright said. "Now we're back to just kind-of-an-average year."

,Hews Gay Resource Center 4\makes coming out easier by Prisana Impson

Out of the closet and into a small room a conversation unravels stimulated by curiosity and uncertainty. A stream _of questions and answers slowly changes one person's critical attitudes toward homesexuality. Eventually a comfortable feeling of understanding and awareness surfaces. This setting characterizes the general atmosphere of acceptance felt in the ~Lesbian/Gay Resource Center (LGRC) of Auraria: a small but growing group of individuals sharing the joys and pains of 'coming out.' Many homesex:uals fear condemnation from society and are hesitant to make their sexual preference public. Although ·attitudes have changed somewhat over' the past decade, the majority of people. still disapprove - sometimes violently - of homosexuality. Fortunately for LGRC, its harassment file is small and amusing at most. Scribbles on gay literature posted throughout ._the campus sueh as,. "Don' t b end over, " or " Stay the ---- away from decent people," implies the general stereotypic view of homosexuals aS "dirty perverts," ..effeminate queers" or "bull dykes." Consequently, in an attempt to break :_away from this stereotype, gays have joined together in hopes of re-educating the public. LGRC provides therapeuti(! counseling about drug and alcohol abuse and sex-related problems. It also offers a Speaker's Bureau directed by Carl .i Fisher, CCD coordinator of LGRC, to inform p~ople about issues pertinent to the gay/lesbian community such as gay rights, housing and job discrimination. The club's social events include potluck dinners, parties, movies and ac• tivities of both gay and straight orienta.:ion. A music festival featuring primarily women musicians, is being directed by J ohnatta Jackson, MSC coordinator for LGRC. The festival will introduce gay and straight performers. Support group meetings are held " weekly for members, in which positive and negative aspects of coming out are discussed. "The hardship of coming out as a lesbian is that we must re-learn conditions from our parents and society," said Christine Boid, UCD coordinator for .,_LGRC. "People tend to view the unknown as threatening until they choose to find out what it is all about," she said. When asked how homosexual relationships differ from heterosexual relationships Jackson replied, "Feelings, at., tractions, love and sensuality all stem from the same place. Within the homosexual culture there is no difference as far as loving. " Jackson and Boid feel homosexuals want to break away from the ·< stereotyped heterosexual style "butch and fem" (dominant and aggressive) relationship. "Generally, a homosexual relationship provides an environment where understanding is heightened, therefore more equality exists between lovers," ..r_ Boid observed.

"People view homosexuality as abnormal, therefore unnatural. Normal is what the majority think or do. Just because something is not normal, doesn't mean it's not natural," she said. Response to LGRC has been small, primarily because of inadequate publicity. Graffiti is an interesting method used to recruit members. Corresponding messages were both ~sitive and negative: "Seek the beauty within you, to be who you know you are"; "Who cares"; and "No thanks, if there is going to be a meeting of single sqaight people, let me know," were a few of the anonymous opinions written in reply. LGRC feels future responses will be more positive as support from gay and straight people increase. The need for LGRC, as for any club, .x is to bring together people who share .~ common interests and beliefs. In the < case of this controversial club, the need· 0 is very real. Homesexuals who choose to ...___ 'come out' face many problems. Their "I've seen people hurt very badly," gay label may cause straights to avoid Fisher said. "There are inherent risks of contact with them and may cost some coming out as a gay person." their jobs. Saying they are homosexual Ignorance breeds fear and hate." may prompt others to view them as Jackson added. Despite such setbacks as "inherent primarily sex-indulgent "faggots and dykes," rather than as human beings risks, fear and hate," many gays are who work, attend school, play football, striving for a positive image of laugh and cry. · themselves, along wi~ respect for their

humanity from the public . Gay student groups such as LGRC aid qomosexuals in their struggle to gain a positive self-image and respect from the public by providing therapy, support and companionship . For more information, call 629-3317 or drop by room 352 in the student center.

After the fee is paid or in many cases earned by working in the office, the individual may list their interests into the computer and at the same time have access to it thoughout the year.

themselves. They just wait for someone to call them. It's possible to get a response this way, but Smith doesn't recommend it. He compares this to buying a power drill and never using it. "Don't give us $30 and walk out and expect us to do something; everyone is responsible for themselves; we just offer information," Smith explaine9. Another point Smith emphasizes to inquirers is that the Network is not a refer• ral service. He said people must find the ~ connections in the directory themselves ' and, "we don't guarantee or prove anything, just stay in touch with us and you'll probably find what you need in a give'!_ amount of time." Smith also said the Network isn't a single interest company. If a person only · wanted to use it for one purpose, finding a job for example, it wouldn't be worth it. He said it's only beneficial to those interested in a variety of situations and opportunities and Smith has turned many potential clients away for this reason. • Turning people away is unusual in business, but for Smith money isn't the main priority. His main objective is to see more people starting networks and more people using them. Smith is a pioneer in the somethingfor-everyone network business. TheDenver Open Network is the only one of its kind in the area. He's dedicated to the concept and hopes to see community networks all over America some day . Smith started the Network because of an idea which came to him while work- ·.,., ing for the Denver Free University as a consultant. DFU asked him how it could expand the university's functions and he presented ·the idea of a network. The DFU rejected tl}e concept so Smith decided to explore the possibility himself and began with just a desk and phone in• a friend's house. That was seven years ago. Today the Network has an office in the Capitol Hill area with an extensive computer. They also have a terminal at the DFU. where clients may look up others, and they are ,. in the process of open_ing another outlet in Boulder. Since the Network is a .non-profit organization, it has no owners. Smith and Pat Wagner are the office managers and run the operation. Others who belie~e in it volunteer their time to.help~ . also. • The Network has abo1Jt 800 clients, approximately 65 percent are individuals and the rest are organizations, "But we really don't distinguish between the businesses and individuals," .... Smith said. "The two are really inter- • changeable," Smith added, "since people from a business use the Network for · personal reasons also.'' Smith doesn't ~eep any track records of how many clients were successful. Another way to find out more about :\· the Network is to attend one of their open houses. The next one meets on Nov. 12, at the Capitol Hill Community Center at the corner of Williams and 13th Ave. , 5-11 p.m. and a dollar donation is requested. · "-

Maniacal <n, a()ofc-civ0 games inoa()e aRcaoe • l.__~~~-by~R_.P_._B_e_ll_iz_zi~~~~~ The presence of state-of-the-art games as well as the implementation of a token system, hp resulted in unprecedented numbers of people gravitating to the arcade in the Auraria Student Center this semester. The main attractions, with names like Omega Race, Gorf, Defender, and Star Castle, to name but a few, have received a record level of use in September and in all probability, in October too. The enthusiasm can also be traced to the "cartoon" games in the arcade (Centipede, Pac Man), which offer a different format from the "outer space" games that have become so popular. The boost in use is music to the ears of George Pray, who owns the concession rights for the arcade. Pray is ~elighted at the numbers of patrons frequenting the electronic wonderland.

grams on Galaxian and Pac Man. That helps ensure those games a steady diet of tokens and quarters. The arcade has been a diversion for people other than student space cadets. Two MSC professors from the Earth Sciences department admitted to being lunch-hour "regulars," intent on total domination of their favorite game: Breakout. Despite its popularity, the arcade has its slow times. Activity is rather subdued at the beginning of the week, "when everyone is feeling virtuous," Pray said. Then, come Tuesday and Wednesday people become less concerned with what's right and more concerned with having a good time. Business picks up as virtue comes in a poor second. Finals week is apparently the b,usiest time at the arcade. As Pray puts it, "people come in here after an exam and let off alot of stress."

"Bringing in the token 1pachine has been incredibly successful," Pray said. A converted change machine, the token • wonder will swap tokens for $1 or $5 · bills at the rate of five-for-a-dollar. While Pray still discovers an occasional foreign coin, h~ does not receive too many slugs since they rarely work in the machines. From Pray's point of view there is a > distinct hierarchy in the legions of video enthusiasts that determines which games will get the most use. · "When I bring in a new game the 'regulars' flock to it to check it out and learn what the challenge is," Pray said. "This enables the people who might be ~ reluctant to compete with the 'regulars' to get some play on the previously popular games. Later, everyone takes an occasional nostalgia trip and plays a few games on the old favorites." Hating to see a good game fade away, Pray has installed more difficult pro-

That week could be called the storm before the calm for Pray since the crowds drop off considerably once the semester ends. _ Looking at the near future, there will be some additions to the arcade line-up. Aurarians can expe.pt the arrival this week of Tempest, followed by Qix in about a week. Next month, the yet-tobe-named follow-up to Defender will appear. Tempest, which Pray describes as "just insane," will feature a color, 3-dimensional time warp, as well as super-zap. It will have 99 levels of competence to challenge even the most adroit players.

->::;

Qix, which Pray likens to "a power Etch-A-Sketch," will utilize a pulsating force field. All right, all you weak, addictive types, consider yourselves forewarned.

Loring Crepeau, ASMSC President

The elections are coming! The elections are coming! The ASMSO Fall elections will be held around the end of November this year. -The exact week the elections will be held hasn't been set definitely, but there will be advertisements in The Metropolitan, as well as notices on bulletin boards. This semester's elections will not only include half (3 positions) of the Student Affairs Committee and approximately half (5 positions - one student from Liberal Arts, one student from Science and Math, one student from Business, one student from Engineering Technology,. and one student from Professional Studies) of the Student Curriculum Committee, but other, important issues as well. Constitutional amendments: the ASMSC Constitution hasn't been amended since 1972. Many of the

areas it covers have changed, and there is a need to make the Constitution more realistically applicable to those areas. For example, the composition of the Student Curriculum Committee is set forth numerically in the Constitution. There is no provision to guarantee representative numbers based on enrollment in the respective schools. One of the amendments proposed will establish a ratio of enrollment/representatives. Referendum: last year, a referendum was provided to the students in a paper form. The procedure for distribution, collection and tabulating was tedious and expensive. This year, students will have the opportunity to vote on the allocation of their student fees at the pools. There is a proposed amendment to the ASMSC Constitution which would require the President of the ASMSC to administer a referendum each Fall semester. NC Policy change proposal: I have approached Stan Sunderwirth, Academic Vice President, with aproposed change in the NC Policy. I would like the students' sentiments on this proposed change. Though a vot~ on this issue won't be binding, if it is widely supported, I

feel that support will act as an impetus toward making the proposal a reality. rn distribute copies of this (and all the other proposed changes in other areas) before the election. .... Finals Week: this school needs a Finals Week. With9 the student population we have at this institution, there is a need for making more time available to students for exam taking. I would like to see implemented a Finals Week; a week devoted entirely to studying and exam taking, at the end of each semester. This would eliminate the problems caused by having lectures and exams during the same week (not to mention the same day!) The students' vote on the Finals Week proposal, as with the NC Policy, will not be binding. If it is supported by the students, I will do everything I can to get it implemented. Dates for the ASMSC election will be set soon by the . Election Commission. That week will be announced ~· widely; look for it and vote. These issues are important to me as a student, and I need your support before I can pursue them. · Democratically yours. 4

Bailey speaks out concerning his so-called resignation I think your article (see The Metropolitan, Oct. 21) was well written and to some degree factual. I think you should know as well as your readers that I just didn't quit my job as the assistant director of the student center; I was forced to resigq. Not having the authority to fire me himself, Mr. McManus requested and was granted permission by the Executive Director of the Auraria Higher Education Center to rewrite my job description. After a year of service inclusive of my job and Mr. McManu5', I was handed a new job description innerwoven with degrading elements that would have reduced me to no more than a sophisticated custodian. Mr. McManus knew I would not submit to this form of servitude, therefore I would be in violation of the contract resulting in giving him the grounds to go to Mr. Jerry Wartgow, Executive Director of AHEC and recommend my immediate termination. I refused to open a money safe which Mr. McManus accused-me of stealing from ... based on his business manager's assumption that the money bad

been taken by me because I was the last one to leave the building. I refused to lock-up the building at night. None of these functions were ever the responsibillty of my predecessors. Even though many have suggested that Mr. McManus' actions toward me have been racially (prejudiced) motivated, I shall resist this notion. It would be too easy for me to say that the reason why Mr. McManus and I could not get along was because he is white and I am black. That assumption would suggest that I am incapable 6f working with whites because I am black. Isn't it strange that I have established a good working relationship with everyone else on the campus including our boss - Mr. Wartgow, and Mr. McManus is the only one uniquely exclusive. In retrospect, I surmise that Mr. McM mus suffers from a "reality shock" that black men do not grow a tail after dark; they do not scratch any more when there is no itch; they do not grin any more when there is nothing funny; and they do not look down on the

ground just because they are in the presence of another creature created by the same Universal God, even though that creature believes himself to be superior. Regardless of what may happen in the days that lie ahead, I want the AHEC community to know that I .. hold no ill will in my heart toward anyone and in particular, Mr. McM~us. God has been good to me, and I know in my heart that I wentjar beyond the contracted agreement in performing my duties. My conscious is clear and at peace. George Bailey,

Writer ali~nates narciss_ istic natives; $pears·fad· '

There's a new sensation sweeping the state. Maybe you haven't noticed it because you've been spending too much time sitting in RTD busses that are stuck in traffic jams. . The Native sticker is appearing more and more all over town and frankly, it's got to be the greatest thing that has ever hit this state since the brown cloud. Think of it! No longer do you have tQ guess who the real natives are. You can tell just by looking at the rear end of their cars. Knowing who is and who isn't a native is something everyone is dying to know. And the people who are natives and proud enough to display.the fact are the cream of the Colorado crop. They are probably the nicest hunch of people you "• could ever want to kriow. Why, they would be more than h~ppy to help you if your car were disabled on the side of the Valley Highway. They would be even happier to help if you had out-of-state plates on your ca!, too. It's funny how the nativ~ just love out-of-staters. The natives are there ready to give helpful directions and information about their great state. What's more · is they are easily identified by the out~of-stater by the · characteristic native sticker adorning their car. Be sure to let them know th!'lt you are horn Illinois, New York, or New Jersey. No doubt they will give you that extra effort and help in finding what you are looking for in Colorado. I'm glad to see the native population is on the increase. It seems as if every day you see more and more

- o·t ficial clarif_ i es parking peculiarities The October 7, 1981 editions of The Metropolitan contained a letter to the editor from Richard Sturniolo which touched on a universal campus concern - Parking. Since many people on campus are faced with • similar situations as Mr. Sturniolo I would like to share some information which may alleviate this common . anxiety. • The Auraria campus currently has approximately 4,600 parking spaces to accommodate the parking needs of over 32,000 students, faculty, and staff. The , situation · has been complicated recently in that the '= Rocky Mountain N~s ran an article in a Sunday edition immediately prior to the start of the current semester identifying the Auraria campus as the "best parking buy downt'own." This article has resulted in a large number of downtown workers parking in campus lots all day long thereby depriving campus people ..,. from use of these spaces. For this main reason several

MSC aviation program flying high

by J. Patriclc O'Leary ,.I A college for airline pilots? Not exactly, but the aviation department at MSC is one of the few schools of its type in the country and is well known for its extensive aviation science program. When asked how the Aerospace . Science Department stacked up against the five or so similar schools in the nation, department chairman Lee Ohrt rated it as one of the best. He attributes this to the attractive mountain location, and the faculty. , According to Ohrt, the department-is run in a ". . . smooth and mature . . . " manner, because most of the faculty members are on their second careers making for a better atmosphere. There is a flight team and aviation fraternity associated with the .department also (see sidebar). The flight team will compete in the regional "Safecon" meet Oct. 29-30 held at Boulder and MSC. Alpha Eta Rho will sponsor the event. According to Ohrt, half of the students enrolled in the department are part time, and half are from out-ofstate. This is unusual since MSC is considered a commuter college serving the Denver community. Many foreign students are enrolled in the program also.

Ohrt guesses the drop rate in the. department to be lower than average. He believes a large percentage of students who drop out of the program do so to take advantage of job offers. He recently advised two students who had offers in the general aviation field to stay with the program and get their degrees. "The market is there . . . " he pointed out, and the degree will be of great value in the long run." One program o~red that " ... really draws them in . . ." is the Flight Engineer program. Based on Boeing 727 systems, this block of advanced courses prepares students to receive the FAA's Turbojet Flight Engineer certificate, which is becoming a prerequisite for airline jobs.

Whatever anyone makes of new wave, one thing is certain: the music sure thinks a lot of itself ... or the musi,.. cians making it. Is the new wave movement a reflection of today's riarcissistic tone? To be sure, one of the major tenets of new waYe seems to dwell on personal hangups; the king of self-flagellation, Elvis ... Costello, is a prime leader of such thoughts. Can the rest of new wave be far behind? Curiously, as the music develops, the tone of new wave has become darker, moody, more mysterious. Even from the first punk classics of Iggy Pop - "I -i Wanna Be Your Dog," "I Gotta Right" through 'the Sex Pistols to The Specials, the songs try to peel away the often alltoo-fal~e fronts of happiness and serenity. The mirror, finally, is set before some frightening psycholoiical monsters - ourselves. However, new wave still has yet to make a hit out of such disturbing material. The Vapors came close with "Turning Japanese," although most saw the schitzophrenic song as only a novelty tune. The Police almost made the top of ~· the charts with the degenerate tale of "Don't Stand So Close To Me."

The Police's new album, Chost In The Machine,. may be as close as new wave '- gets to a psychological superstar album.

The Vapor's Magnets, however, makes The Police's run·seem like a trip through joyland. While Ghost In The Machine makes slight inferences to personal problems, Magnets is a look into a neurotic nightmare. Some may think the presentation of rock via -the mass psychology of fascism may be ·a bit too pretentious, ~ut The Vapors manage to bring the message across with Magnets . The songs, with their small pieces, construct a jigsaw picture of the beast within. The record's opener, "Jimmie Jones," is a rocking retelling of the People's Temple saga; the ending title track is an eerie interpretati~n of the Kennedy assassination and the public's fascination with death. In between are some other reflections of British life - but the only obvious political song about the recent Brixton ritons ("Civic Hall") is weak when compared to The Special "Ghost Town." The best, though, comes with backto-back songs of psychological trauma - "Johnny's In Love (Again)'.' and

'Tre.atment' mild Shock

Get out the lemon

. by Teresa Falagrady-

From the people who created The Rocky Horror Picture Show comes a ·new musical call~ Shock _Treatment. The name alone, sounds Rocky Horrorish; tlie movie is even more like its · prototype. Those wild and crazy and outlandishly dressed die-hards who flock to the Odgen on Friday and Saturday nights will have to divide their time. Their favorite cult film, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, has met its equal. Shock Treatment, however, has its own style. The movie is set in a fictional city called Denton, where television is a reality. The entire film is shot at television studio, DTV, and to emphasize the public's distortion of TV, the camera employs trick photQgraphy. As the studio audience frenetically scurry to their seats, the camera distorts their figures from a horizontal, wide angle to an' asymmetrical blurb, not unlike trick mirrors at amusement parks. This photography device truly underscores the film's theme: televisio~s hypnotic dominance on the public. The story develops as a young, married couple participate in a show called The Marriage Maze. These two in. nocents are Brad and Janet Majors, the same characters who bravely wandered into Transylvania in Rocky Horror. This time, however, the characters are played by Cliff DeYoung and Jessica Harper. While both actors perform credibly, they lack the charming unsophistication of their predecessors, Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon. The saga of Brad and Janet continues. During The Marriage Maze, they sing a humorous tune about their marital woes, " . .. bitchin' in the kitchen or cry- . ing in the bedroom all night." To "solve" their problems, much to the delight of the studio audience and the show's emcee, Bert Schnick, Brad is committed to Dentonvale, ; a sterilewhite "res~-home" run by a brother and sister team-Cosmo and Nation McKinley. Rocky Horror fans will recognize the looney myopic Cosmo as Riff Raff. Both Brad and Janet, however, are unaware that Brad's commitment is the evil work of DTV's owner and fast food magnate, Farley Flavors (DeYoung in a dual role). Also unknown to Brad and Janet is Flavors' mysterious motive for separating them. What befalls Brad and Janet is not exactly a storybook tale, yet it is a familiar television theme: the good guy vs. the bad guy with the woman caught in the middle. While the musical score is not as memorable as Rocky Horror's, it has, nevertheless, some offbeat tunes With amusing lyrics. Both Harper and DeYoung perform their own s_!nging, and are quite capable. Harper's voice is especially good during her credible transformation from housewife to vamp. Dress and make-up are especially well

Women may soon get majority of degrees WASHINGTON, D.C. (CPS) Women continue to acount for a larger and larger percentage of the .graduates of American colleges and universities, says a new survey by the National Center for Edueation Statistics (NCES). Though the total number of degree recipients is expected to start to decline next year, NCES predicts the percentage of female grads Will continue upward until women numerically eclipse their male counterparts by the middle of the decade. "There are more women than men enrolled in college today," explains Tom Snyder an NCES .education programs specialist, "and that's not likely to change." Woman became t;he majori.ty of students only in 1980. "The enrollment rate of women graduating from high scnool has been increasing, while the rate among men has been steadily decreasing.'.' The NCES also found there was an ipcrease in the number of degrees awarded to members of both sexes in 1979-80. · some 1,343,129 students graduated, up about 7,000 from the . previous year. It was the first increase in the number of graduates since 1976.

The album, by design, seems to appeal right at the mass market - instead of the lovable lunatic fringi:. New Traditionalists is an album for those thinking punk is alive and well, and be-

ing cool is wearing a safety pin through . their Lacoste shirt while quaffing a Watney's at The Four Mile House. The new Devo is a downer. Billy Joel's Songs In The Attic shows the Long Island songster had narcissism in mind long before new wave made it fashionable. The album itself, with its tales of self-woe and New York states of mind, is almost unreviewable, save two points: l. The engineering and recording of live tracks are terrific. 2. The songs sound better live than on Joel's original albums.

Fans of Joel should buy Songs In The Attic. Persons who cringe at the first notes of "My Life" should listen to The Vapor's Magnets. Lock up all sharp ob- " jects beforehand, though.
