Hews Reagan to request further financial aid cuts WASHINGTON, D.C. (CPS)-The Reagan administration has proposed drastically limiting student eligibility to get Pell Grants, the major federal aid program for needy college students. Announced just a few weeks after more restrictive requirements went into effect for theGuaranteed Student Loan program, the administration's plan would make it tougher to get National Direct Student Loans (NDSLs), College Work-Study funds,and Supplemental

Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOGs) as well as Pell Grants for the 1982-83 academic year. Many members of the Washington college lobby expect the proposal is just one of a series of aid cut measures due in the next few months, ones that go beyond the aid budget cuts announced last summer. The administration hinted it will soon ask Congress to require applicants for all kinds of federal student aid to

demonstrate financial need before getting aid. Currently, only the Guaranteed Student Loan program requires students pass a "needs test" to get aid. In January, the administration plans to unveil its 1983 budget, which many congressional staffers predict will include more cuts in federal education programs. In this round of reductions, the administration wants to increase the minimum amount of money a family must contribute toward a student's education in order for the student to be eligible for aid. This year, the government requires that a family contribute a minimum of 10.5 percent of its discretionary income - money not needed for basic living expenses - to the student's education. If the regulations make it through Congress, students from a family of four earning $15,800 would no longer be eligible for a Pell Grant. The income cutoff for Pell Grants this year is $28,400 for a family of four. The regulations go into effect July 1, 1982 unless Congress vetoes them within 45 days of their publication in the Federal Register. Secretary of Education Terrel Bell argues the changes are necessary not only to help balance the budget, but to reverse the "erosion of traditional student and family financial responsibility" for meeting college costs. But Dallas Martin of the National Association of Financial Aid Administrators in Washington calls the

proposals "absolutely absurd." While unable to mention an exact figure, Martin predicts the new regulations would force "significant" numbers of students out of the aid programs. Martin claims the administration may lose this fight in Congress, and that it seems ready to compromise. Indeed, the administration is hoping to abandon the new regulations in return for congressional approval of some amendments to federal aid legislation. Among the changes the administra- ~ tion wants are: • Figuring home equity in the formula used to compute hQw much a family should contribute toward the child's college education. • Treating veterans andSocial Securi- _. ty benefits as part of the family contribution instead of as income. • Putting off the effective date of the new college cost estimates for a year while the administration creates estimates that more accurately reflect living expenses, especially for com- ..., muting students. • Treating married independent students without dependents as single, independent students when determining aid eligibility. · • Excusing administrators from having to apply Pell Grant eligibility rules to otlier, locally-based aid programs. Uncertainty over just what changes will be implemented now and in January has already had an effect on students trying to arrange loans for the 1982-83 school year, Martin says.

(CPS & Staff Reports)-Five members of the student government at the University of Colorado at Boulder have resigned amid charges of election rigging and drug dealing, making CU the latest campus to join a lengthening list of colleges involved in student government-related scandals. "They're just like little Nixons," said one student at Boulder regarding the student government resignations. "It just doesn't seem like there's any morality." Allegations that the student election was rigged first surfaced last spring, but a number of recounts seemed to prove the election was legitimate despite a number of minor campaign violations. After facing the CU Disciplinary Committee in a secret meeting on Nov. 24 to answer charges of ballot tampering, the five former members of the CU student government were found guilty and received disciplinary action. Steve Balcerovich and John Joyner, former co-presidents of the student government, and John Traylor, former student administrator in the Chancellor's office, were placed under "deferred suspension" for their roles in the scandal. The three must also perform ten hours of community service per

week. They must also submit public apologies in two student-oriented newspapers detailing their roles in the ballot tampering scheme. Kay Coulson, .former student govern- v ment finance director -and Kersten Lanes, former student administrator in the CU president's office, were both placed on. academic probation. They received lesser penalties because they submitted confessions detailing their involvement. · All five agreed to a statement of fact which detailed their misconduct. All were represented by an attorney, as well as by at least one character witness. In addition to the election fixing charges, university police are also· ' reportedly investigating charges that the student officials used student funds to purchase cocaine. The student government administers approximately $4.5-million annually for the 20,000-student Boulder campus. "The whole thing has had an incredi- ble effect on students' views towards the student government," says Ellen Balaguer, newly-elected co-president . . "Student government didn't have a lot of credibility to begin with, and this just makes it worse," she laments.

Numerous Auraria students affected

Future child care subsidies cut

by Margaret A. Dubois Some Auraria campus students and their children are among the first to feel the razor edge of Reagan budget cuts. On Oct. 22 the State Board of Social Services - in an attempt to slice $8 million from its fiscal year 1983 budget - ended all day care subsidies for students enrolled in two- or four-year college programs. The Department of Social Services will continue to subsidize child care for current recipients until February 1982 or the end of the current quarter or semes~er, whichever comes first. This slices more than $1,278,000 from the fiscal year budget. New regulations in Medicaid, vocational rehabilitation and Food Stamp programs will cut an additional $5 million but child care subsidies for college students are the only COQcrete cuts piwed by the board. To compound the situation, those students affected by the child care cuts were not notified until the beginning of November - after most financial aid for the spring semester had been awarded. Parents of the estimated 2, 153 children affected by the cuts statewide have begun to scramble for alternatives

in order to continue their education. Novella Jones says she'll need an additional '$1,500 to provide child care for Jeremiah, 6, and Karina, 3, if she is to graduate from the paralegal program at the ·Community College of Denver in Spring 1982. A single parent, Jones depends on a part-time work-study job on campus and Social Services' aid through Aid for Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), food stamps, Medicaid and housing subsidies, to provide for her two . children. "Living off of social services is safe," Jones says. "It's not living in the real world, but by going to school I'm pulling myself out of the rut. You have to have the guts to pull yourself out of it." If Jones does not find the funds for child care she says she will discontinue her education. She will then return to the safety of Social Services where her big trip out was to the grocery store with food stamps in hand. Karen Buffum'Knutson, a mother of five, also says she'll stay home and continue to live off Social Services if her child care needs are not met. Buffum-Knutson leaves her 4-year-old son, Jason Alexander, at the Auraria

Day Care Center while she tutors students in the CCD nursing program. Her older children babysit while she attends classes to earn a degree in health care management from MSC. "I had no training," Buffum-Knutson said. "I was a high school dropout and married with the intent of being married forever. My husband was determined mentally disabled in 1971 and we went on welfare and have remained on

welfare since. Now that we're divorced I receive no child support from my husband. "Three years ago I decided to pull myself up by the bootstraps and go somewhere with my life," she continued. "I started working toward my nursing degree in the spring of 1979." Buffum-Knutson says she does not work as a registered nurse even though continued on page 17

Student Body Presidentia1 Report by Patti Goodman, Vice-President

We have just returned from a very informative conference on Student Services in New Orleans werein student leaders and administrators from all over the country got together to exchange ideas and interests on our respective campuses. We discussed everything from where to go when the budget runs out to refining and defining leadership skills, to apathy on comuter campuses which is the subject of this column this week. I know that the word apathy has been used, abused and generally beaten to death but here it is again with what I see as some fresh insight. We started last year to combat apathy with the Halloween Bizarre in hopes that we could start some kind of a social life on campus and provide the students with an opportunity to mix and mingle in a more social atmosphere. As you know, it was met with much controversy but it broke the ice and set a very important precedent. When we look at the reasons behind low student participation, the most commonly stated reasons are that after class most of the students face full or part time jobs, and since the average age .of the Metro student is over 25, a lot of them have homes and families or a combination of both. So, I am starting a whole new group of special events with a heavy emphas_!s on FAMILY! We have an Auraria Family Night in the spring and the turnout is fantastic - but once a year isn't enough. Already I've had suggestions for carnivals, family night at an amusement park with good discounts on tickets and food for Auraria students, raft trips, a circus and Junior Olympics. These ideas are excellent and they are all possible, but I can't do it alone.

I need your help, input, advice and ideas. We have access to all facilities on this campus and we have a lot of receptive professionals who would · bend over backwards to help us in any way they could. Do you have a hard time talking to your teachers because you are intimidated by their "status" even· though in some cases you are older than your professor? Do you have a problem and don't know who to talk to in Administration, or if you do, you just can't muster up the guts to walk into their office? I've found from personal experience that you can get a lot of things off your chest and exchange ideas or talk about problems and how you might solve them in an infor-

mal atmosphere. I'm looking into an informal "coffee and donut hour" once a week where all students and staff will be invited to shar~ a cup of hot coffee and some time to talk to each other on the same level. I realize that special events are not the most important thing on the campus but I think some of these ideas can promote a constructive, informative, cohesive atmosphere and at the same time we can have fun. I'm looking forward to hearing from you. My door is always openI 11 (340 C Student Center 629-3252 or 629-2797) Let's get involved!

Club president speaks about space allocations I approved of the final office space allocations that were made by the SFPC. The Auraria campus is constantly increasing its student population each year. Each year there are more clubs and organizations forming on this campus. With this type of growth comes a problem of office space. The only solution was that clubs and organizations should double up, yes double up! It's a must to double up the offices.There are too many organizations to be in a office alone that was designed to house two or three clubs. The Congress of African Students - CCD-A, the Black Student Alliance, Metropolitan State College, and the Black Student Association of the University of Colorado - Denver had been sharing one office space for years. There is no reason for anyone to protest or disagree with the decision that was made by SCAB or

SFPC when at least consideration was made to house simular interests and not put three clubs together. We all know there are not enough office spaces in the Student Center for all the clubs and organizations that are forming and waiting to receive office space. What this campus needs is an annex to the Student Center. Then we could solve this problem . . . at least temporarily. Thank you for soliciting our opinions on the results of the space allocations. If nothing else we should all become more aware of the purpose and programs of one anothers organization. Sincerely yours, Conrad Landry, President Congress of African Students ·,

A homage.to.David Wenstrom (1915-1981) · David Dean Wenstrom, Professor of English at MSC from 1967 until his retirement in 1980, died on Tue5., Nov. 24, after a long illness. A memorial service will be held on Thurs., Dec. 3, in room ·one of the St. Francis Inter-Faith Center. His death marks the passing of one of the most active minds - certainly the greatest wit - on campus. All the world was a stage to David Wenstrom, and he always managed to steal the show. As a timid student at MSC during those golden early years, I remember being overwhelmed by Wenstrom's theatrical grandeur. He would begin class by asking poor unsuspecting freshmen such questions as, "How many of you know that common sense is vastly over- ~ rated? It's just that; it's common. It seems to me what we need is uncommon sense." Wenstrom certainly never hesitated to voice.his uncommon sense. Some of his students and colleagues were at times disturbed by his incisive comments, but most people were charmed by the novelty of this -c. gentleman who used words to express notions not commonly held. He despised academic pedantry. On one occasion when a colleague was worshiping the famed Dickens critic J. Hillis Miller with high reverence, Wenstrom cut that conversation short by saying, "I know more about Dickens than J. Hillis Miller." And, of course, ::- he did.

One day an administrator delivered a form to be filled out. Wenstrom looked at it and promptly threw it away. The administrator gingerly cautioned him that the form was rather important. W~nstrom countered with, "At your age, you should know there is no such thing as an important form." The great theme of his Children's Literature course was that adulthood is not maturity, but escape from it. "Once the mind has reached the state of adulthood it no longer has any room to grow. It has become a set of pigeon holes where the answers to everything are neatly placed. How many of you know that most educators are horribly adult?" Wenstrom's theatre background was extensive, and he did not so much teach his classes as perform in them. Each class was a theatrical delight. He discussed everything with infectious energy, whether it was Jane Austen, Saki, H.L. Menchen, Aldous Huxley, or Henrik Ibsen in the original Norwegian ("It makes more sense that way"). Frequently classes would act out plays Wenstrom had written. If he was in good voice, he would sing - and so would the class. Wenstrom's course offerings always had large enrollments, and for a very good reason. He made education what it all too often is not - fun. Hundreds of students will remember his exuberant classroom performances as the best show in town. Laurence DiPaolo

Support sought for campus radio station r'

Earlier this year, the representatives of the three student governments of Autaria were approached by Bob Steele, general manager of KHUM, a radio station. Bob offered us the opportunity to have an on-campus radio station with students on its board of directors. This radio station will serve the entire front range; J..... strong enough in output to be heard from Cheyenne to ~ Pueblo. The Student Facilities Policy Council has allocated space in the Student Center for the station, contingent on the station being funded. . We, as representatives of the three student governments of this campus, feel this station would benefit all' ,_ students, clubs and organizations, and the campus as a whole, in the following ways: 1. Anyone with an interest would have access to programming on KHUM; 2. Student clubs and organizations would have a

of money, is the equivalent of one dollar per student per semester. We feel that thiS money could be best generated in just that way; increasing student fees by one dollar. Before we do this, we need your support and input. To get your input, we will be passing out a questionnaire in the cafeterias of both the Student Center and the UCD Tower Building this week. Extra questionnaires are available in room 340 of the Student Center.

The Metropolitan December 2, 1981

feature MSC prof trains for expedition by R.P. Bellizzi

"We had enough food for four days. We felt that everything was going like clockwork. The fifth day came, and no helicopter, and we thought, 'Hmmm, where are those guys?' Then the sixth day, and no helicopter, and the seventh day, and no helicopter; then we started• to worry." Thus, MSC geology instructor Rob Leitz recalled the days he spent near the summit of Mt. St. Elias in Alaska, after he and his climbing partner had just completed the first traverse of the second highest mountain in the United States. The Mt. St. Elias climb in 1980 was intended to provide expeditionary training for Leitz's next high-altitude climb in July 1981; an assault on Kongur Shan, a 25,325-foot peak to the Pamir range in southwestern China. Leitz considers the Mt. St. Elias traverse his greatest mountaineering achievement thus far. "It's a great achievement when you press yourself and the whole climbing team right to the boundary of what's possible for that team," Leitz explained. "I think we got close to that boundary, but we didn't go past it. We didn't get

outselves into real bad trouble, but we got real close to the maximum that we could do. "I think we carried it off in good style, and it worked pretty much the way we wanted it to work. That was a real team effort, and there were alot of personal sacrifices made to get everybody up there. We were pretty proud to pull it off." "As it happened," Leitz continued, "We were left on the glacier for five days without food because bad weather had come in and we couldn't be taken off. Actually, we had pretty good weather, but we didn't have a radio to call in the helicopter. The other group on the other side of the mountain had the radio. The plan was for the helicopter to pick them up first, and then come back and look for us, because nobody really knew where we were. They had bad weather and couldn't get taken out. We had run out of food, and had to melt snow to drink for five-days. "We were successful by the skin of our teeth," Leitz surmised. Leitz has also reached the summit of Devisthan, a peak in the Himalyas. His climbing group that year, 1976, was the eighth American group ever to make the ascent, and the first group to complete the climb without suffering a fatality.

During that expedition, Pizzo - considered by Leitz to be the group's strongest climber - had the opportuni- ,.. ty to confer with two members of the British expedition that was the first to c1·imb Kongur this past summer. While the British used oxygen on the climb, the Americans will not. "Our correspondence with the British suggests that they thought their route was the only way to reach the peak," Leitz said. "That route involved traversing a ridge for several miles. To be marching along there without oxygen for a long period of time at 24,000 feet is going to be real difficult. We'll have to see how that goes. "It's gonna be touch-and-go right until we get there and can see what it looks like. It ought to be an exciting climb." The climbers will be hampered by the fact that they have been unable to obtain good quality maps or photographs . of the mountain.

"We're very concerned about people getting pulmonary edema," Leitz explained. "We'll try to get people acclimated at base camp. If you never quite get acclimated at base camp, you're really going to have trouble higher up on the mountain. Then, when we get ready to go, we'll try to make as rapid an ascent as possible. "Once you get above 20,000 feet, you'd better get to the summit as quickly as you can and get back down - if you're not on oxygen - because you just don't recuperate. Your blood is just not getting enough oxygen. At the summit there'll be only a third of the normal pressure on the oxygen," Leitz said. "You can try to rest, and even lie down, but as soon as you get up it's like you haven't rested at all. And that, mentally, just destroys you." The American team was chosen to

He says that one out of ten people lose their lives while climbing at high altitudes. "Even if you've got odds like nineout-of-ten, in climbing, the stakes are so high, you make a mistake and you're dead," Leitz said. "So, even if you've got terrific odds, you just cannot afford to be a gambler. Your whole lifetime can be wiped out." After what he hopes to be another successful mountaineering venture, Leitz

plans to continue his instructing at MSC. "Teaching is real t:njoyable, particularly at Metro, and I find that it's just as challenging as doing this kind of stuff (mountaineering)," Leitz said. Leitz has been training strenuously for his expedition. Concentrating on aerobics, he is doing alot of running and swimming as well as regular weight training.

feature TATTOOERS' NEEdlES piERCE TllE SURfA1 ,I

by Dave Reddick

Doctors were the first, then junkies, and now, finally, tattooers are beginning to gain acceptance in our society for sticking needles into peoples arms. Emerging from the greasy, dark motorcycle shops, and coming in from the waterfront, tattoos are no longer taboo - not reserved just for drunken

sailors, nor confined to the hairy arms of the black-tee shirt crowd. Tattoos have become more and more popular with everyone in just the last ten years, according to Sugar Bear, a Denver tattooer. He also said that the still-popular symbols of evil and death are losing popularity to the Heavy Metal magazine style of fantasy art.

...,...,,...,....,-n...,

"A lot of people get fantasy art tattooed on them and wish they could escape to the fantasy," Paul,. Sugar Bear's partner, said. Together, they run the Emporium of Design tattoo parlor, 2028 E . Colfax Ave. Kim, a tattooer at Peter Tat-2, 7028 E . Colfax Ave . . , agreed, saying that tattoos are leaning toward "more pretty things, more artistic, more realistic and that's easier said than done." The recent Joseph E. Levine movie, Tattoo, starring Bruce Dern as a neurotic tattooer who kidnaps a beautiful model to tattoo, and the Rolling Stones latest album, Tattoo You the cover of which features intricate facial tattoos, may be indicative of the acceptance of tattooing as an art. One person who claims responsibility for tattoos' rise in acceptance is Peter Tat-2, as he is known professionally. He is respected as the best tattoo artist in Denver and possibly ~e co~ntry by customers and competitors alike. The winner of many awards for his work, he said the quality of tattooing in Denver has increased in the six years. he has been here.

"Not just the competition; the shops, too," he said. "There was nothing but dirt halls here before." A junior high dropout, Peter, 34, has been tattooing for almost 20 years and has developed a fine, detailed style. Sugar Bear said that tattooers do develop their own style. " It's like a painter - especially someone in the business for awhile," he said. "You can recognize their style." "It's a personal art. You can have what you want, where you want - for public show, or something for just a husband and wife to share," Sugar Bear added. "It's a lot of fun - it's like the ultimate art, for the sense of accomplishment," said Eric, formerly a graphic artist from New York, now a tattooer at the Peter Tat-2 shop at 1118 Broadway. More than half of Kim's customers are women, she said, and Sugar Bear put

"Personally, I like tattooing men better, but I like women getting tattooed." The most common areas that women have tattooed are their shoulders, breasts and derrieres. One 22-year-old woman has tattoos on her shoulder and tush, but none on her chest, which, according to Kim, is one of the easiest places to tattoo. "To me, your chest is femininity," the 22-year-old tattoo customer said, declining her name, "and tattoos (there) aren't feminine." What of her tush? Not feminine? .9 "No, that's - what do you call it - a ~ mural, no, not really," she said.

"Every day is different - I Japanese warriors used to get tattoos men from the boys - or, rather, the work the same hours every day, but of dragons and other evil beings on their women from the men.

Wider popularity has resulted in tattooing becoming a big business. Prices ranging from $15 for a small, simple tattoo; to Peter's $75-to-$100 an hour for elaborate, custom work, provide tattooers with, as Sugar Bear said, "a decent living."

Unfortunately, some of the year's better music might be lost in this corporation marathon dash to the cash register. For a prime example, look no farther than Joan Armatrading's Walk Under Ladders.

Playwright Peter Parnell calls it a "comic ache." It's a semi-accurate description. Parnell's Sorrows of Stephen paints a picture of an impetuous young man, Stephen Hurt, who desperately searches

for a meaningful relationship. His trouble is that he wants the relationship with his best friend's girl. Thus, the ache. The comedy is not as obvious. Although the love triangle is an overworked theme, Parnell revamps the classic topic into one with variation: the

from reality of life. If the apartment is cold then it should be experienced: This makes Wally start thinlcing about his life and it also makes the viewer re-evaluate his or her own life. What the film deals w.ith is the idea of some people in the theatre who are not able to handle the reality of life. So they choose the profession of show biz in

order to not have to live a life of their own. When they realize that they must live in reality it scares them and they try to find meaning for their own existence; not an easy task for everyone. Many analyses are possible with this film this is but one. · One word of warning: this is a difficult film. It is a challenge to watch and

Have you ever wondered what it -"would be like to sit at someone else's table during dinner and listen in on their conversation? Now that opportunity is yours in the form of Louis Malle's film My Dinner With Andre. This is a film which demands serious cerebration of .the viewer and is rertainly not a film for everyone to see. If movies like Jaws or Raiders of the Lost Ark are the only lcinds of films you can stand then do not see this movie. Why not? Visual thrills are not predominate in My Dinner With Andre.

- A synopsis of the plot: two men, old theatre pals who have not seen each other for about a year, eat dinner at a very fancy restaurant and talk. That's it. Actually there is more to the movie than that. Wally (Wallace Shawn), an ,unemployed playwrite and actor, is invited to dinner by his friend Anare (Andre Gregory) whom he has not seen in quite a while. Andre is also a playwrite as well as a very talented director though he dropped out of the theatre a 90uple of years ago. No one understood 1-\ndre's departure since he was a very successful director. The two meet in a very posh restaurant and begin small talk. Wally then asks Andre where he was and what he was doing during the time he was out 'of the theatre. Andre's explanation makes him appear crazy. He tells of a trip into the forest he made with 40 people; none of them English speaking. This was so they all could experience "being." This is -followed by takes of bizarre parties and workshops that Andre was involved in; all designed to make one experience existence. The scenes that Andre describes are incredibly vivid but very nearly · unbelievable. Wally just sits and sort of takes it all in. Keep in mind that this is just two people tallcing the whole time - no flash backs or other such techniques are used V1 thi~ film. This is a rather slow part of the film but it is necessary for the completeness of the movie. Without this long scene we would not know the trouble that Andre has found in just being alive. -~

Andre contends that to be alive one must experience everything in life - not just bits and pieces. This means that all sensations should be felt and not repressed. For example, Wally says he loves his electric blanket. Andre says devices such as electric blankets are excuses to escape

is definitely not for the casual moviegoer. It is a film that requires much discipline to view since what we are doing is listening in on a conversation that we can only take part in our minds. My Dinner With Andre is thought provolcing and forces viewers to think about Wally's and Andre's lives on their own.

Now when the money is designated from the legislature it goes directly to the three governing boards that controls each of the institutions on campus. The CU Board of Regents allocates money to UCD, the Board of Trustees controls MSC and the Board of Community Colleges governs CCD. Under the new system each governing boar<l appropriates funds to the Library and Media Center, and that task was completed successfully this year. However, nothing equivalent to what used to be the equipment fund was designated, therefore an appropriation was never made. In simpler terms:- they forgot.

"We are pursuing the issue through the president's office, so the Board of Regents can allocate some funds," Herman said. "We should reach a resolution by January but we don't want to jeopardise the Media Center so we have hel~ them to meet their most immediat;· needs." Aside from being $74,000 short for equipment, the Media Center still has the old problems that have haunted students for years. Students interested in radio and television production ·s till don't have access to the Center's educational equipment. The black and white television studio, which only a couple of classes have been able to use, and the color studio, which·has been off limits to all, still sit collecting dust. Breivik said productions are her leas;t priority right now; first she must solve the other problems. "We can't be solely a training operation, we have to do productions for teachers (slides) and distribute equipment to classes first," Breivik explained. Breivik said she wants students to ~ able to use the facility as a learning tool, but doesn't know exactly when that will happen. Also, there are a couple of classrooms in the Media Center and Breivik has arranged to schedule classes that need to use equipment to m~ there. She said AHEC is being very cooperative about this and will designate more space so the Media Center will eventually have all the communications classes within its walls. Tom Cook, chairman of the broadcasting department at MSC, said, "courses in broadcasting must have the necessary support to teach, just like the typing department needs typewriters, we need that space. In the past, people who weren't involved in the instruction process (at tlie Media Center) were mak~ ing decisions, it was like the tail waggl"" ing the dog, when the dog should be wagging the tail. "With UCD I'm willing to wait and see at this point, I'm willing to give them until the end of this academic year to get their act together."

The two-record set, though, can get lengthy - and a listener can only take so much vitrolic anger at one sitting. The problem with Zappa's outpour~ ings - and the hitch in You Are What You Is - is the sheer volume. As the boy learned in the fable, ·crying wolf' is effective ... if used sparingly.

financial aid. Student fees subsidize child care for 15 MSC students this semester paying a little over $4,000.

About $6,000 is available for Spring, but because of an increased number of students who will seek aid from the subsidy, student fees may not meet the full 50 percent of the applicants' child care. Chris Lacroix, CCD student government treasurer, has proposed a similar subsidy from CCD student fees but deci-

sion on the amount was tabled at the Nov. 25 meeting of the government. Lacroix estimates a need of over $11,000 by CCD students who use the Auraria Child Care Center and has asked the student government to subsidize 50 percent of the need.
