KHUM request turned down

Fontera selected as new MSC president.

It may be too early to talk of a new era for Metro, but listening to the enthusiasm accompanying last Friday's announcement of - Richard Fontera as the new MSC president, it is tempting to indulge in such phraseology.

The selection climaxed an ex..tensive search and screening pro.. cess conducted by a threemember subcommittee of the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges, headed by John Vigil, and a nine-member lnstitu- tional Advisory Committee, S chaired by Faculty Senate President Brooks Van Everen.

These groups narrowed the initial field of 149 candidates to three -who met with student, faculty, ' administration, and minority groups over the past two weeks and submitted evaluations to Van Everen.

Van Everen then reported on 41 the results to the Trustees, who made the final decision.

"He's personable and open, and has a tough academic and administrative background. It's a rare combination," Vigil added .

What about Fontera's weaknesses? "Oh sure," Van Everen said. "He talks too much.

He can tend to monopolize a 'conversation." ·· "I had a speech impediment when I was young ilnd l still pra~­ tice correcting it a lot," Fontera explained.

Fontera SU<:!ceeds Donald Macintyre who resigned July 1, 1981 to be president of Canada College in California, Mcintyre beat Fontera by one-trustee vote in 1979.

A native of Wisconsin, Fontera is 46 years old. He has been a college administrator for 15 years, serving the last 11 as Dean of Faculty and Graduate School at Southeastern Massachusetts University.

Fontera holds a doctorate from "I'm not interested in education that only certifies you for s0me career. We've got to keep the service emphasis alive in this country, to establish better linkage between the classroom an_d the rest of the world. It's important for students to bring something they've learned back to the community."

Complaints prompt invalidation of MSC ·elections .

Tl1e MSC election commissioner decided Tuesday to recommend that the recent student governmer.t election be overturned.

Gene Watts, an appointee of ASMSC President Loring Crepeau, submitted his recommendation to Antonio Esquibel, vice-president, MSC Student ·Affairs. .

The ruling came after complaints from students that a proposed amendment · was not publicized enough time in advance of the election, and that many students could not vote because their names could not be found in the list of eligible voters.

Watts said those two complaints were the biggest factors in his decision.

"Student's names were listed by zip code, not alphabetically or by student number," Watts said. "As a result, many people could not vote."

The proposed amendment concerned whether to serve Coors beer in the Mi5sion.

The concept introduced by KHUM Denver Educational Broadcasting Inc., to start a radio station on campus will remain just a concept for at least a year-if not permanently.

During a recent conference with administrators and student government representatives from all three schools, KHUM's general manager Bob Steele was told he wouldn't receive any funds from student fees this year.

Steele, who was requesting a dollar per student per semester for KHUM, was informed of the procedures and legal implications complicating KHUM's request.

KHUM, which has Denver's last unowned FM frequency at 89.3, needs about $50,000 to go on-the-air, which would take approximately one year after receiving the amount they requested from student fees.

The station is already $30,000 in debt because of layers fees to obtain their FCC frequency and other outstanding bills. This raises the question of - who's liable for this debt?

"It was a moral and ethical issue of students taking over their debt, as well as a legal issue," Roberta Smilnak, .assqciate vice continued on page 5

"Students are coming in to us with a lot of questions. We're trying to ease their minds. There are definitely going to be cuts, but we don't want students to panic, thinking that they'll have to drop out of school," she says.

Franklin believes most students can avoid that fate, but a University of Miami (F1a.) student who· asked to be identified only as Harvey isn't sure.

"They (campus aid officials) say they can put something together for me, but they can't tell me about it until the fall, and they say I shouldn't count on it anyway," he says. "What am I supposed to do if I wait until fall and can't afford to go? It'll be too late to get in a cheaper school." ' "If I could find a job now, I would, and 1tell school to screw off for a few years."

"Kids from low-income families are in the most precarious spot," Kent State's Johnson said, "but we have more alternatives to offer them. I expect that middle-income kids will take the hardest rap."

Martin contends that "poor students

and students who are unfamiliar with how the financial aid system works are ·the most likely to become discouraged, and drop their plans~ The longer we have to wait, the more serious the problem becomes."

At Malcolm X College in inner-city Chicago, aid Director Ramiro Borja notes that "most of our students are eligible for the basic (Pell) grant, and that won't change. What will change is the amount of money they receive, which is going down every year."

Making up the difference is proving difficult. Though ten percent of · Malcolm X's student body is on workstudy, many of the surrounding businesses that ordinarily hire students are cutting back.

"A great number of students would love to work their way through school," Martin adds, "but the chances that they could earn enough to play a role are slim, and worse, as often as not they can't find a job at all."

Borja expects that many of the students driven from school by the delays "will be replaced, often by people who can't find a job. This is kind of likesurvival of the fittest. Those who can't hack it Will get out of the system."

"It's sad to lose people. This is not always a great professiop to -be in.-,-,

·Sorensen.to share memories with students

by Randy Golkin Mentioning John F. Kennedy and his administration brings back a multitude of memories buried in people's minds.

But inviting Kennedy's top speech writer, Ted Sorensen to MSC brings history to life.

"He (Sorensen) is as close to having Kennedy as we can get," says MSC history professor Frank Nation, who helped bring this nationally recognized man to MSC. Sorensen, former speech writer and special counsel to Kennedy, will give a speech free and open to the public at the Student Center in room 330 A-B-C on April 21 at 1:30 p.m., during his twoday visit.

The address entitled, "The American Presidency 1962-1982," will explore the different administrations including President Reagan's policies and will conelude with a question arid answer period.

Sorensen was Kennedy's clos~t aide throughout his senate and presidential career. He started With research in 1953 and 11 years later was shaping many policies and legislative programs for the late president.

The speech writer wasn't a personal friend of Kennedy's but was so involved with the former politician's career, he became Kennedy's political alter ego.

"For those 11 years he was the only human being who mattered to me," Sorensen once said.

"None-not even Sorensen-was sure just where his thoughts left and Kennedy's began," journalist Patrick Anderson said.

he wouldn't have been president," Holbrook, who is most responsible for Sorensen's appearance at MSC, said.

"That was the first televised presidential debate and it had the largest audience," Holbrook added with emotion.

"After that there was no question in people's minds (of who should be president)."

Holbrook, who teaches a debate class, brings the Irish debate team to MSC, and loves to participate, judge or watch debates. He first thought of inviting Sorensen because of a Nixon vs. Kennedy debate tape.

Holbrook decided to teach a new course called "Presidential Debates 1960-80." He wanted to show students in this class video tapes of the Reagan vs.

Carter, Carter vs. Ford and Kennedy vs.

Nixon debates.

After an extensive search, Holbrook Sorensen, who influenced Kennedy as a speech writer, wrote some of the acq:uired all but the Kennedy vs. Nixon former president's most famous speeches debate tapes. The only copies available including the American University are at UCLA's ·archives and the Kennedy speech of June 1963, the inaugural ad- Library in Dorchester, Mass.

Fortunately a few months later, the dress and Kennedy's speech for the Kennedy Library made copies of the debate with Richard Nixon.

"The thing that is really important to debates .available and the Auraria me is what was done behind the scenes Library was able to purchase one.

While working through Senators Gary to prepare Kennedy for the presidential Hart and Ted Kennedy's offices, debates," MSC speech instructor Gary Holbrook began thinking about Holbrook, said.

"If Kennedy didn't win that debate, Sorensen.

KHUM loses money request

"The taking on of their debt (KHUM's) by the students (which would be the case if they received student funds) maybe in violation of the Colorado constitution," Smilnak added, she indicated this legal problem was a large drawback in KHUM's request.

The remainder of the meeting held by Auraria's representatives, focused on all the procedures involved in raising stu, . dent fees and obtaining club funds for KHUM. After submitting a 150-page proposal to the Auraria institutions, speaking with many instructors and working earnestly with the leaders of the three student governments for the past nine ' months, Steele was very dmappointed.

"They (KHUM) went through the right channels," Loring Crepeau, ASMSC president said. "Only the channels at MSC are terrifically restrictiveand very restraintive to new ideas." .,....

"The way the system is set up, it's not conducive to new projects on campus," the dissappointed student president said. .

Although Steele and the other six members on KHUM's board of directors wanted to locate their community access ~ station at Auraria, they can't wait another year because of the bills they are being urged to pay.

So as a result, KHUM will take their organization to the Pacifica Foundation, which owns at least five public radio stations across the nation and a na~-;{" tional program service similar to a network.

According to Steele, Pacific wants a public radio station in Denver and KHUM has already made them an offer are just awaiting a response.

He said Metro has a solid foundation to build on.

'Tm delighted to join such a fine enterprise," Fontera said. Further institutions talk about rooting out cancer.

At Metro there may be a case of acne."

He said he is struck by the mixture of students here and the lack of elitism.

"I made a conscious decision at one point to avoid the so-called elite institutions; what look like the hot careers,'' Fontera said. These can tend to be places where they take only the very best students and put them through like it's a meat factory-punching the stuff 'prime.'

'Last chance' letter sent bY.AG's office

Money recoveryefforts still grounded by

J. Patrick 01..eary

Efforts by MSC and the Colorado Attorney General's office to recover MSC student's assets from Pro Flight, Inc. are rollin~ forward, but not quite airborne.

Now four months down the runway, the college will soon decide whether or not to take off with legal action.

Pro Flight, a one-time contract flight school for MSC closed its doors in December of 1981 and refused to honor deposits made by MSC students for flight training.

Since then, the Attorney General's Office, acting on behalf of MSC and the students have been trying to work out a solution with the flight school.

Two weeks ago, assistant attorney general Nancy Connick, sent a "last chance" letter to Pro Flight, asking the company to make arrangements for MSC students' flight training it had defaulted on.

Cecil Reimer of Pro Flight responded to the letter last week. Reimer said he would consider paying part of the student's claims after MSC business department officials send him a letter of retraction for allegedly erroneous press releases to the Rocky Mountaiil. News and Channel 7 in January.

Connick and MSC officials will either accept or reject Reimer's offer by the end of the week. If rejected, MSC will

probably take legal action to recover the lost deposits, originally estimated at $18,000.

John Utterback, MSC business manager, said that the original $18,000 figure was "inflated".

"Once into the records," Utterback said, " ... we got a look at what was really owned. It was probably closer to 13 or 14 thousand."

Utterback estimated that figure to be even lower- "six or seven thousand ... " -after subtracting the claims of two MSC students. The two students, owed "a large sum" by Pro Flight, have since received the balance of their training through Pro Aviation of Longmont. Pro Aviation submitted the bid for Pro Flight in the summer of 1980, and acted as the same company, but denied responsibility for Pro Flight students when it folded.

After MSC has decided on a course of action this week, those students who haven't completed flight training will be receiving instruction at either Colorado Air Center at Arapahoe County Airport or Hyperion in Boulder, financed by the college until a final settlement.is reached with Pro Flight.

Utterback said that only three or four students would get the MSC financed training, because the majority are either finished with training, owed too little or both. He estimated the majority of stu-

dent's individual claims to be no more than $100 to $150.

While the Attorney General's office has wavered somewhat in its efforts for students it has ignored altogether other complaints against Pro Flight.

One man who lost money when Pro Flight folded, Wayne Garrett, originally brought his case to the Attorney General's office, but has since given up.

"It was absolutely unsuccessful," Gar-

ret said, " ... they do not have the man- . power nor the inclination to pursue it."-路 "Oddly enough, the students at Metro" comprise only one quarter of the money I know to have been siphoned off."

Garret gathered private claims gainst Pro Flight, which he estimates to be $50,000 and forwarded them to the Attorney General's office. ' Carret now plans to take his claim to the Arapahoe County District Attorney.

Greg Cho and Allan Gillan place third in men's division of the concrete canoe races.

MSC's concrete canoe competes in paddlethon

by James Powers It's a great idea, but will it float?

MSC student chapter members of the American Society of Civil Engineers discovered that a concrete canoe will not only float, but it's fun to race one.

Each year the Society's Rocky Mountain Region sponsors a concrete canoe race, with entries designed and built by students.

This is the first year MSC entered, but they didn't let that deter them. MSC won first place in the poster presentation of the design process, and second place in actual design.

In the race categories, the team of Allan Gillan and Greg Cho took third place in the men's division.

Bert McCauley and George Davis also took third place in the faculty category.

Other teams fielded-or floated-by MSC were Charles Fry and Dave Curran in the men's division, while the women's division was represented by two teams, Michele Stake and Cindy Parker; and Yvonne Richen and Geneva Duran.

This year's paddlethon was held April 9 at the Air Force Academy, which was the host school.

>

Other schools which participated were UCD, CU-Boulder, Colorado State University, University of Utah, Utah State University, Brigham Young University, University of Wyoming and~ South Dakota Tech.

MSC team members limbered up in the early afternoon sun and wind, shaking off the effects of a hearty picnic lunch. There was a flurry of last-minute activity as modifications were made to paddles and the canoe's styrofoam ballast.

The 18V1-foot MSC entry was constructed from a styrofoam mold. A layer of wire mesh was added to the styrofoam, then a rebar frame with l.another wire layer on top. Then the concrete was added.

All canoes floated when launched.

The crews displayed varying degrees of .coordin&tion.

The Air Force Academy's entry looked .like it had been built by a committee-half canoe, ha1f rowboat. It, like the others, had the turning radius of an aircraft carrier and the speed of a waterlogged ferryboat.

·OR/Ed To Denver Post executive ·editor: ,

Foreman case is Pulitzer material Mr. Will Jarrett: I enjoyed your column of Sunday, April 11 concerning the prestigious Pulitzer Prizes, Your point is valid and unavoidable: journalistn is an inexact science with a strong propensity for mistakes. tlut as you say one such mistake should not scar the entire industry.

If anything a Janet Cooke episode strengthens the business. Such an incident makes journalists keenly aware of the responsibility, trust and power they possess and the care they must take to preserve the profession' s credibility.

In support of the Pulitizer and the profession you cites the work of Miami Herald reporter Gene Miller.

Miller diligently pursued a story no one else wanted or thought worthwhile and was told, "who cares?"

As you put it, "Gene Miller cared and his editors listened."

It paid off. Miller and the Herald succeeded in gaining the release ot taJsely 1mpnsoneo men.

You couldn't be more correct when you said, "getting innocent people out of prison is exactly what the Pulitzer Prizes are all about."

Your statement is further supported by 1982 Pulitze awards. A Seattle Times reporter won an award for a series which proved the innocence of a man accused of rape. _ If those reporters and papers do nothing else worthwhile they have known the ultimate achievement that comes from a business that also produced a Janet Cooke blunder.

The Denver Post has the same opportunity. It is the

Former UCO student Roy Foreman.

Roy Foreman case. · On Jan. 16, 1979, Roy Foreman, a 28-year-old UCD student, _Air Force veteran and swim coach, tried to stop Robert Shaw from committing suicide. Shaw, a 22-year-old meehanic, was despondent over the loss of his business and his wife. He had also injected speed twice that day.

When Foreman tried to prevent Shaw from shooting himself Shaw fired a shot at Foreman. When another man, Dale Stubblefield, grabbed Snaw from behind Shaw panicked and shot Stubblefield, killing him.

Shaw forced Roy, at gunpoint, to help him dispose of the body and threatened to harm Foreman and his family if he reported the incident.

Seven days later Foreman, Shaw and Shaw's girlfriend, Anita Soffa, were arrested and charged with first-degree murder with deliberation, first degree murder while committing a felony, kidnap\>ing, robbery and conspiracy to commit murder.

Anita Soffa, who was at the scene but did not witness the shooting gave a statemenf to the police in return for immunity from prosecution. She implicated Shaw in the statement and placed Foreman at the scene.

The police later destroyed the tapes l\nd notes of their interrogation of Soffa and wrote their own summary of her statement.

Foreman was tried in September of 1979 before Judge I\ichard Greene in Arapahoe District Court. He

was accused of being a colflplicitor (one who aids, abets or advises anot~er in commiting a crime) and conspiring to commit murder.

Foreman was found guilty of both charges and sentenced to life and an additional 25 to 50 years f~r conspiracy.

Normally, the alleged complicitor is tried after the principal co-defendant. Not this time.

Two weeks later-before the same judge-Robert Shaw testified at his own trial that he alone shot Dale Stubblefield. He completely exonerated Foreman of any involvement in the shooting, describing Roy as "a victim and totally blameless."

For ~easons they qid not explain, the prosecution dropped the conspiracy charges against ShB:w. The jury found Shaw guilty of second-?e_gree murder, meaning that there was no deliberation or pi;emeditation when Shaw shot Stubblefield.

At a hearing on June 2, 1980, Greene noted the "apparent inconsistencies of the verdicts,"" but refused to grant Foreman's motion for a new trial.

Foreman's case raises some disturbing questions: How could Foreman be convicted of helping Shaw plan a murder when Shaw was acquitted of that crime (first-degree murder)? How could Foreman have conspired with Shaw, who admitted to the shooting, when prosecutors dropped th~t charge against Shaw.

Numerous other questions have been raised about Foreman's legal representation, insufficient evidence, and the procedures employed by Judge Greene.

Foreman's case has been sent back to the Arapahoe District Court for it to consider a motion for a new trial. If that motion is denied Foreman still has an appeal pending. I feel it is fair to say, however, that even with the appeal Foreman may spend several more years in prison for a crime another man committed and has confessed to. · I also think it is. fair to say that the chant!es of the justice system-which unjustly put Roy Foreman behind bars-admitting its outrageous mistake and releasing him are slim at best.

Roy Foreman needs more help; the kind of help The Denver Post can supply. If Gene Miller cared and the Miami Herald listened why not Will Jarrett and The Denver Post?

Janet Cooke's career was ruined. Roy foreman's life · is being ruined.

It's the stuff Pulitzers are made of, Mr. Jarrett.

Brian Coffey-Weber editor, _T he Metropolitan

April J. 7 demonstration at Governor's Mansion to call tor Foreman's release A demonstration calling for the release from prison of former UCD student Roy Foreman will be held on Saturday, April 17, at noon at the Governor's mansion at 8th Avenue and Logan Street.

The demonstration will also center around Foreman's upcoming motion for a new trial in Arapahoe District Court.

Foreman was convicted in September of 1979 of first-degree murder. Foreman insisted then and still does today that he is innocent. He was sentenced to life in prison although he was considered only a complicator in the crime.

Two weeks after Foremaq was sentenced Robert Shaw confessed to the killing and completely exonerated Foreman 0£ any involvement in the !flUrder. Though he committed the murder Shaw was convicted cf only second-degree murder and received a 38-50 year prison sentence. Shaw's appeal is scheduled to begin before Foreman's.

Anyone interested in participating in the demonstration should be at the governor's mansion at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday or contact the International Committee Against Racism (lnCAR) at 320-0565 .

Student Body Presidential Report The people's choice.

The people's choice, this time, for the president of MSC, is Richard M. Fontera. Richard was one of three finalists for the position, and was interviewed by the Institutional Advisory Committee, interested students, members of MSC's alumni, and members of the Faculty Senate. Richard Fontera was recommended to the Board of Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges as MSC's new president by the Institutional Advisory Committee.

The recommendation to the Trustees is just that; a recommendation. The Trustees will do with the recommendation as they wish.

The last time a recommendation was made for a new MSC president, it was a recommendation for the same person: Richard Fontera. The Trustees rejected

MSC needs a strong, informed leader when addressing the legislature, the Trustees, and the Auraria Board of Directors. I feel that Richard Fontera has that strength, and will operate and act only after getting all the relevant facts on an issue.

I'm totally optimistic about the new leader of MSC. We're leaving an era of having an interim president, and era which, though relatively harmless, lacked any progress. I feel we can look forward to a new era of leadership at MSC. An era where MSC shines, and an era where more alternatives are offered, relative to the Auraria situation, and an era where MSC grows in a progressive, dynamic, and deserved way.

Sanctions sought against pro-Khomenis Editor: Once again, on Tuesday, March 20, the Pro-Khomeni "students" gathered at UCD to attack the students opposing the "Islamic Republic" regime.

About eight of the Pro-Khomeni people were inside the tower building and about twenty of them were driving around the UCO building. The evidence for this gathering, with the intention to attack, can be obtained through Public Safety. Most of them were not students on this campus.

This is not the first time that attempts have been made to harass anti-Khomeni students or disrupt their programs. Last semester about 30 people tried to disrupt an Iranian Cultural Club event. In the attack, a 路student attending the event received a head injury.

Elsewhere in the U.S., anti-Khomeni programs have been attacked. These repeated incidents, together with the financing of these savage activities by the government in Iran (documentation of financing is enclosed), proves that "these students" are committed to continuing their harassment unless the students and the faculty on this campus condemn them and take appropriate measures to prevent these kinds of activities.

Several Pro-Khomeni "students" are presently on academic probation as a result of having been found to be the cause of campus disturbances in the past. We propose that they be suspended if they are involved in future incidents. Moreqver, the University should request a court order enjoining non-students convicted of disrupting the order of the campus or similar acts from entering campus buildings and grounds. We demand that these proposals to be taken seriously so that an environment which everybody can express his/her opinion freely, can be created. Any kind of hesitation on the part the university to adopt a coherent policy toward aggressfon of Khomeni supporters may lead to further unfortunate incidenJs.

"And then," Strandburg says, "there are some who are predisposed to reacting to life in a stressful manner."

Unlike Strandburg, MSC psychologist Susan Hofmann feels that the main cause of stress on campus is simply being a student.

"Going back to school causes an upheaval in time, relationship, financial and energy structures," Hofmann said.

Ron Veatch, director of MSC counselin~; notices that students are confronted with personal issues, anxiety and depression. He points out that a lot of people have stressful lives before entering school.

Still, Hofmann sees no increase in stress on campus; there are no increases in student referrals. There are certain higher stress periods during each semester. Hofmann and Veatch see students operating on a short fuse during midterms, finals, holidays and seasonal changes.

by Kathleen L. Humphreys Have you ever ripped the page out of the typewriter, thrown all the typed pages on the floor and stomped on them? The term paper you thought you would do over spring break still exists only in your imagination.

The result-stress.

Stress prevails and is a problem on the Auraria campus, but there is disagreement as to the severity.

Severe or not, to know stress is to understand it.

Simply, stress is the tension that results from demands placed- on the body.

"Stress is any non-specific bodily response to any demand or change placed on it," says author Hans Selye of Stress in Health & Disease. · Stress affects everyone, but there are stressors peculiar to campus life. Corky Strandburg, Director of Counseling and Testing at UCD, lists some recurring ~ess-inducing issues-marriage, selfconcept and academic difficulty.

More specific is.rues are disruption of plans, fear of the future, school performance and financial pressure.

However, Veatch is aware of more stress in general, especially economic pressure.

MSC Counseling has experienced a series of student emotional crises which it views as temporary and coincidental.

"Right now there is a crisis every week and sometimes every day," says Hofmann.

Veatch wants to see if the crisis pattern continues be~ore admitting to growing campus stress. Hofmann contends that crises are felt more intensely by counseling offices because of less staff due to budget cuts.

Jennifer Adderly of MSC Academic Advising agrees there are certain stress periods each semester.

"There are certain times each semester: the week before midterms and midterm week, final week and registration when stress levels are higher."

CSU education researcher Margo Rosenkranz cites environmental demands as a basic stressor. Environmental stress includes daily living activities such as weather, noise, crowding, time pressure and Auraria parking. , Adderly witnesses student stress; her office is usually a last resort for students and frustration levels are high when

students reach her.

She also sees future financial repercus-' . sions due to budget cuts.

UCD Dean of Students, Nancy Scott, concurs that the reality of Reaganomics hasn't hit.

"We are in the interim stagC-:reality hasn't caught up with where we are philosophically," Scott said.

"It's scary now, but nothing like it will be when work study students are scarce or when we actually have to come up with the dollars," Scott said.

Scott is conscious of student stress, but points out that her office, like Adderly's • deals with students at the end of their "'! rope.

"Our office usually is a last resort and students are feeling desperate," Scott says.

Students all over the country are experiencing more intense problems with a resulting increase in referrals, as well as a rise in suicidal gestures.

Students show symptoms of stress academically and emotionally. Adderly points out class withdrawal at the end of April and beginning of May is high.

"Students believe they can catch up ::... before. this time or their grade status is poor and likely to stay that way," Adderly said. coritinued

Positive or negative a certain amount of stress is necessary

by Kathleen L. Humphreys

Some stress is necessary.

"Stress in everyday life will never be alleviated, nor should it be," says Joseph Kandel.

Kandel, a doctoral student in Guidance and Counseling at UNC, explains that stress stimulus is n~ed to accomplish; the adrenalin rises and encourages action.

But, there is negative physical stress.

Body stress includes bodily functions such as illness, aging, accidents, sleep and diet disturbance.

Physical evide~ce of stress is seen at he MSC Health Clinic.

"A lot of students come to the clinic with physical complaints that are stressrelated," says clinic director B. J. Collard.

Fatigue and stomach pain are the "tnost common stress indicators according to Collard. A stress overload can produce feelings of powerlessness and resultant depression that shows itself physically.

"Heart attacks, ulcers and high blood pressure are more serious results of 'chronic stress," Collard said.

Collard cites frequent suicidal gestures. Patients showing any tendency are referred to the Counseling Center.

UCD Dean of Students, Nancy Scott, sees physical stress symptoms evident in ~vereating, excessive smoking and drinking, and in an inability to concentrate.

"When students are under stress the activities -that reduce stress tend to go first-proper nutrition and rest for one," Scott said. .;: There are a myriad of symptoms that indicate high stress levels. Kandel points out loss of sleep, overeating, hyperativity. Fatigue is one of the most common signs.

CSU educational researcher, Margo

_.,..

Rosenkranz, adds n~k and back tension, skin prolilems and heart disease to the list. She also mentions milder indications: lack of energy, cold hands and feet, hurried speech. _ Selye, author of Stress in Health and Disease labels certain conditions as stress diseases: high blood pressure, heart attacks, peptic ulcers, migraine headaches, some allergies and back pain.

Conditions containing a stress component are the common cold, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and circulatory disorders.

These last, according to Rosenkranz, are not so much the result of an outside cause, but an unhealthy bodily or emotional reaction to life stress.

Smoking, alcoholism, insomnia and overeating fall into this category.

When stress is identified there are coping mechanisms that reduce the degree of stress.

"The Health Center provides a health questionnaire that measures specific stress levels," says Collard. "Stress is cansidered and explored in each appointment."

Biofeedback, a process telling a person how their body reacts to stress, is available at the Health Clinic. Holistic health counseling is "stressed" at the clinic.

Rosenkranz suggests monitoring one's own. stress by keeping a 10-day journal that identifies major and frequent 路stresses. A personal plan can be devised to eliminate one major source of stress.

Relaxation exercises, muscular or meditative imagery are popular antidotes to stress. Daydreaming leads to creative problem-solving through mental and physical relaxation.

While Rosenkranz suggests a slowing down, doing non-hurrying activities, she also advocates exercise as a physical stress -reducer.

However, Adderly sees no rise in intra-student violance or suicidal incidents. Referrals have not expanded in her office either.

In response to escalating financial concerns, students nationally are evidencing extraordinarily high levels of stress: more class withdrawals and intrastudent fighting.

Hofmann does not perceive a growth of stress on campus.

"Class withdrawal is nothing new," Hofmann says. "MSC has 路always experienced a high turnover."

MSC's Veatch explains that suicide gestures are not as visible because Auraria is not a residential campus.

"Community resources, the sophisticated mental health facilities, absorb this type of problem," Veatch said. "In a population of 15,000 some suicidal incidence is expected, but Auraria's percentage is still low."

Hofmann and Veatch agree that threats of intra-student violence are low; students are on campus to attend school and are mostly concerned with issues that impair this activity.

Veatch suggests that most student's lives are centered off-campus.

Stress remedies for students are dose at hand. MSC and UCD Counseling Centers help students with personal and academic related problems.

Academic Advising offices of UCD and MSC answer dilemmas and splice red tape.

Hofmann and Veatch believe that group ~ work educates and prevents stress. Some workshops offered are: selfassessment and life planning, rational emotive training/ anxiety reduction, ending personal relationships and personal growth.

"Each person has the power to decide how to respond," Kandel says.

Thinking determines the emotion.

Each person controls personal decision, making and if conscious choice does not occur, revenge and blame do, Kandel said.

"Stress doesn't come from behavior, but from feelings about behavior," Kandel says. "The type of thought makes something 'good' or 'bad'."

Albert Ellis, author of A New Guide to Rational Living, says, "Emotions stem from ideas, thoughts, attitudes and beliefs formulated by our thinking process."

Kandel refers to the 'little voice' inside of us that hearkens to parental and societal influences. The voice rarely takes a breath and is usually self-critical.

All beliefs come from past experiences, Kandel explained.

"An inaccurate belief that blocks goal attainment needs to be dissolved."

CSU's Rosenkranz agrees.

"Almost every minute we engage in self-talk-our internal thought language," she said. "These are sentences with which we describe, interpret and evaluate the world.

"If self-talk is accurate and in touch with reality, we function well; if it is inaccurate we experience stress, and carried to the extreme-emotional difficulties," Rosenkranz said.

-

Some college campuses are initiating full-scale measures. Campus media outlines available campus resources.

Special counseling teams are researching and treating campus stress.

Joseph Kandel, and UNC doctoral student, offers generic remedies for handling stress. Placing blame on other people or situations prevents a person from assuming responsibility and produces guilt and self-punishment.

Tom van Bebber, assistant production manager, handled the contract negotiations with Early Man. "Though they're more jazz-influenced rock, they'll play more of their straight rock stuff, so they don't clash with the headliners," van Bebber said.

Ticket sales have not reached the level desired by the promoters, however.

"Sales have been so-so," Mike Routh, ticket sales director, said. "Things should pick up this last week."

Concert-goers should know that they'll save over a dollar if they buy their tickets at the campus ticket booths instead of Select-A-Seat.

The working agreement with Feyline, with the equipment and "to give us a appears to be a good one for UCO. Aside chance," according to Blake.

"If we have one or two students who are outstanding, who can prove themselves, give them a chance to see what they can do," Blake said. "(We need to) get them involved as much as you possibly can."

Blake said there is a need for additional people to help with various aspects of the production and urges anyone interested in working the show

by R.P. Bellizzi Success in one's chosen field is dependent upon many factors. Among other things, the right combination of education and experience is necessary to achieve that success.

Recognizing that, UCO music production and management students are getting valuable experience in their field by working in conjunction with Feyline Presents, Inc., to present a concert at the Rainbow Music Hall, 6360 E. Evans Ave., on Saturday, April 17, at 9:30 p.m. , Under the advisement of David Baskerville, professor of music, UCO students have responsibility for nearly all aspects of producing the show, including promotion, sound, lighting, staging, ticket sales, legal contracts, parking, security and concessions.

The concert will feature Epic recording artists Duke Jupiter, and will be opened by local band Early Man, which is comprised of several former and current UCO students.

Barbara Blake, production manager for the show, has a clear sense of the purpose behind all the effort.

"We're doing this because we're serious about becoming business people," Blake said. "We're serious about developing skills for our sound

Blake said that while Feyline offers a good outlet for UCO, .she doesn't want to work with them exclusively.

"We've got other kinds of programs we'd like to offer," Blake said, "theatre, lecturers, etc.; a lot of different programs that Feyline doesn't provide."

She does, however, see the potentia} involved in working with the region's largest promoter.

"I think we have a unique opportunity here in Denver to work out a relatio~­ ship that's symbiotic and helps both of us," Blake said. "We'd like to get all 9f the campus involved in the future." ., "I think," Blake said, "we're gaining some credibility from Feyline, showing them that we're not just doing this to hang out at a rock concert."

Watt'• ·housing solution: cheap Alaskan lalld _

by Paul Jaffe Affordable real estate is here at last.

The man we have to thank for this miracle is Secretary of the Interior James Watt, whose department is malcing available some 10,000 acres in the Alaskan wilderness to American citizens for $2.50 per acre, or$12.50 for a (maximum) five-acre lot-one per customer.

Now for the rest of the story.

The 10,000 acres, available since February 19 under Public Land Order 6098, are located in a rather rugged area north of Lake Minchumina in central Alaska, about 240 miles northwest of . Anchorage and 160 miles southwest. of Fairbanks.

Prospective buyers must travel to the site they want, physically stake a claim, and then go to either Anchorage or Fairbanks to register the claim at a Bureau of Land Management Land Office. The . filing fee is $10.

Since others will be staking claims, / anq since the available acreage is interspersed with private and state-owned land, the BLM must then examine the claim and conduct an official survey.

Surveying costs will be on the Bureau, but .. these actions may take several years depending on the workload of the BLM personnel concerned," according to an information sheet.

Moviegoer muzzles loudmouth

by James Powers

"Madam, would you please remove your hat?"

Oh, for the good old days, when ladies hats were the only problem moviegoers had to contend with.

What's a jaunt to the movies like these days? First you take out a small loan just to afford tickets for you and your girl/boyfriend. You purchase this overpriced item at the booth in front, then walk ten feet or less and surrender the admittance token to a youth in an illfitting tux. No wonder prices are going up with overhead like that.

The next hurdle is the concession area.

It's more or less traditional to spring for an armload of munchies and drinkies to enjoy during the celluloid extravaganza.

There's a slight wait while an employee empties a garbage bag of pre-popped popcorn into the bin. In most cases you're better off without the wet glop that p~ for popcorn butter.

"Why don't you get the large-sized drink, sir," extols the concessionnaire.

"It's only ten cents more than the medium."

That means you can get an extra helping of ice added to an already watery soft drink.

You find a seat and settle in. There's a

buzz of conversation befqre the movie starts. The lights go down and the credits start to roll. The buzz of conversation continues. Even the best behaved patrons think it's all right to talk as long as there's no dialogue going on. They don't realize that mood is established by music and camera action.

"Oh, look, there's John Belushi," says the loudmouth in back of you. "I think he plays a newspaperman in this one."

That was fairly evident by the scenes of papers rolling off the presses and a crowded city room.

Loudmouth leans across the row to shout something at her girlfriend, who is loudly munching Milk Duds three seats away, "Didn't we see Paul Newman in one like this?" she asks.

"Umpht, uh thumnk urr wruter gomph," replies the Milk Dud muncher.

"Duh, yeah, I think so," chimes in her boyfriend. "But I think it was Sally Field. Newman was some kind of crook in that one."

The boobs think they're at home watching HBO. You turn around and give the group your best glare. It doesn't work.

There's a momentary distraction as an empty beer bottle rolls down 15 rows, careening off seat legs and feet.

"Oh, look," says loudmouth. "That's Chicago. Isn't that Chicago? I was in Chicago once."

Finally you lose patience.

"Will you PLEASE stop talking,". you say. "Some of us paid our four bucks to watch the movie!"

Loudmouth doesn't give up easily.

"But we weren't talking loud," she says.

"Have a little consideration for the rest of us, will ya," you say. "You want to talk, go out to the lobby." ·

Loudmouth finally is embarrassed into submission by the 30 or so patrons who have turned around to silently watch and listen to the exchlmge. You are saying just what they always wanted to say, but were too meek and easygoing to do it. In their hearts, they applaud your bravery.

Now the only sound from the audience is the drunk two rows down who continually spits on the floor.

Two reels later it starts again. She has a short memory.

"I didn't understand why he did that.

Did you understand that? What's going on?" asks loudmouth.

Your reason snaps. Calmly you edge your way around the knees of the others sitting on your row. You walk to the concession stand and purchase one of the large-size drinks, only ten cents more.

As you sidestep back to your seat, an accident(?) occurs.

"Oops," you say as you trip, watching the watery mixture cascade -over her head.

That does it. The ultimate victory .

Loudmouth leaves in tears. You smile.

She's drenched, she's speechless-and she's gone.

A blissful silence settles over the audience-except for the drunk two rows down who continually spits on the floor.

"The show is done, the lights go up.

Cat PeOple belongs in litter box

by Teresa Falagrady

First come the snickers; then the meowing.

With this type of audience reaction, how can Cat People be taken seriously?

It can't.

The title isn't even very catchy. .... Paul Schrader's attempted r&-make of the 40s original wastes the talent of Malcolm McDowell and the potential of Natassia Kinski who catapulted to fame as the falsely accused Tess.

Kinski is Irena, the self-proclaimed _c-virgin by day and a 50-lb. black leopard by night. McDowell is her brother Paul, part-time religious zealot and part-time cat who can leap tall trees in a single bound.

Paul loves Irena, not as a sibling, but ~ a lover. In his cat-atonic state, he 掳'1>ossesses a burning desire to make love to Irena so they may continue to live as they truly are (cats), and it also compels him to brutally maul and murder women.

Irena, meanwhile, is confused about per new-found feline tendencies. As she ' struggles with her identity, she falls for the cute zookeeper Goho Heard) . He unwittingly becomes a catalyst for Paul's jealous rage, and one bloody catastrophe befalls another.

This movie is not for the squeamish, women's lib-ers, or intellectuals.

For Schrader, a couple of cups of Karo syrup and red food coloring isn't sufficient. Instead, for more effect (and more stomach ache), he graphically illustrates an arm separation and a cat autopsy.

Women will once again be justly angered at the senselessness of how women are used-as murder victims, and as pawns in man's sexual game. At one point in the movie, in an attempt to

keep Irena in his possession the curator strips and binds her to the bed before making love to her.

If the scenes don't 'get' you, the dialogue will. What little there is to understand can be understood just as easily without the words. The characters try hard to believe what they say, but they don't. Neither did I. Don't bother with Cat People. Or, if you absolutely must see it, take a catnap during the less-than-catching scenes.

by R.P. Bellizzi With MSC leading 5-2 in the second game of a doubl~header with DU last Tuesday at Auraria,. a DU ~istant coach was ejected from the game from arguing too vehemently a close call at ~ first base.

Later, the DU head coach was taking the long walk off the field. after being ejected by the same umpire. The coach had thrown a tantrum that would have made Earl Weaver, baseball's premiere cimpire baiter, proud.

Suddenly, the umpire through up his hands; not in frustration, but to signal, "That's it, the game's over. DU forfeits to Metro."

He had been struck in the face by a roe~ thrown by the assistant coach who,

"'

~

although banished from the field, had only crossed an imaginary line indicating out-of-play and resumed his verbal ~ault.

Prior to hitting his target, the coach had fired several salvos toward the um- ' pire, as evidenced by the puffs of dust that rose around his feet.

The thrown rock cost DU the game and the coach his job.

Perhaps more important than DU's antics is the reputation MSC'has earned among local umpires. " I've been told by several umpires that MSC has one of the most wellmannered teams around," Bill Helman, MSC head coach, said. "They like to work our games."

Helman attributes that reputation to the possibility that MSC may have different priorities than other colleges.

"At MSC, there's no win-at-all-costs · attitude," Helman said. "We try to encourage respect and camaraderie."

Helman dispels the axiom that nice guys finish last. "You can be sure that an· umpire remembers which team has been all over him during a game," Helman ·said. "By not getting on an ump, we have a good chance of having a close call go our way when the game is on the line."

He sees similarities between his sport and life in general.

of 'the area is marshy with poor soils underlain with permafrost." This is why it is open to homesiting (residence) rather than homesteading (farming). ' Indeed, " argicultural potential does not exist in this area." Hunting and trapping are possibilities, but for 2,000 family units? Guess there's only one way to firrd out.

Homesiting requires the construction of a "habitable" house, defined as a " dwelling suitable for year-round use" at temperatures ranging from + 89 to -62 degree Farenheit.

Wh ile t he dwelling must be " habitable" for the entire year, it is necessary to inhabit it for only five months of the year (read: May, June, July, August, September) , for three years.

Veterans, however, can use their time spent in the service to knock off up to 10 months of the residence requirement.

The handout also states that "timber for home logs is not readily available.

Most supplies must be transported in from outside at.great expense."

No roads service the area. Airstrips are located near Lake Minchumina and Wien Lake; an air taxi service 1 can be chartered . Transporting building materials via snowmobile or dogsled might well be cheaper but "the federal governm e nt does not guarantee overland access across private lands to settlement claims."

Also, despite two lakes bordering the land grant area and four rivers traversing it, the region's "water quality is unknown."

And if coal, oil, natural gas or any geothermal energy source is discovered on your homesite, it belongs not to yo~ but to the federal government ~ Ho\vever, land is avallable for commercial use under two other categories: " headquarters site" and ''.trade and manufacturing site."

Printed information can be obtained at the BLM Colorado State Office at 1037 20th Street. But anyone interested' . better hurry: the packet also warns that the current land grant just might be "the last of the land settlement programs to make land ~vailable to those hardy citizens.

Pool tournament sched.uled April '27 The Auraria Student Center is hosting the sixth annual Spring Pool Tournament, Tuesday, April 27. The tourna.... ment will be fourteen-one continuous pocket billiards (straight pool), double elimination.

Entry fee is $2, and the first prize is a $50 value custom pool cue and padded case. Entry forms are available in the Student Center game room. ..: Deadline for entering the tournament is Wednesday, April 21. The tournament is open to all Auraria students.

World premiere April 18 at DCPA The world-premiere performances of Ladislas Farago's "DAMMIT, IKE, I WAS THERE" are April 18 and 25 at 8 p .m. in The Space at the Denver Center Theatre Company.
