Instructor ousted

JliSpanics hurt by HE-.P's demise ,

by Dan Mathewson

The "convenience" of not reappointing a UCD Spanish instructor whose work with students of ':nedicine and social services had · directly benefitted Denver's Spanish-speaking community will prove inconvenient to victims and patients.

9 James ' Anthony Black and the Health Education Language Program (HELP) which he instituted and directed have been given walking papers. In fact, the i...H ELP program never even · received recognition as a program.

HELP was designed by Black to t~ach medical personnel and ~oeial service workers the terCminology necessary in their fields to communicate with their clients and patients. Black feels that since communication can often mean life or death to the Spanishr-speakin_g patient, it must be taken out of the reach of "university neglect and politics."

Shirley Johnston, program director for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said that only ,_

"'

Black refers to HELP as a program.

"We don't have a HELP program, nor is Black director of this non-existent program," Johnston said. "All we have ever done in this area is offer a few courses in applied Spanish."

Francisco Rios, assistant dean, CLAS, concurred.

"There is no HELP program as such that I know of," Rios said.

Johnston ·and Rios are technically right. But to say that HELP is . non-existent is to disregard its progress and achievements since the academic year 1977-78.

To say that HELP ·never was a program is contradictory to its referral as such in numerous letters between members of the UCD adminfstration and membets of the legislature.

One reason that HELP never . received the blessing of the department is that Black refused to apply for lucrative grant money unless that money was to have gone directly to the program, the teachers, staff, students, and patients. He was told that he did not have the authority to run the program and that there would have to be a continued on page 8

Flnanclal aid

:.Dept. delays notice of student loan changes WASHINGTON, D.C. (CPS)-The government has again amended its rules for awarding Guaranteed Student Loans (GSLs) to students, but, unlike last year's amendments, critics are 'f angrier about the timing of the new proposals than about the rules themselves.

The proposed rules are "generally a little stricter" than the regulations for awarding GSLs for the 1981-82 school year, says U.S. Department of Educa~ tion spokeswoman Skee Smith.

The regulations allow students from families earning under $30,000 per year to borrow as much as $2500 under the GSL program, which has the government paying the interest on loans until six months after the student leaves

Education, with its typical inefficiency, waited so long to publish them."

By law, Congress has until mid-June to accept or reject the guidelines.

Martin says the delay could cause students and especially their aid administrators enormous trouble.

Colleges will now have to process GSL applications according to what are provisional guidelines. If Congress changes the guidelines and thus eliminates so-

meone who had been eligible for a GSL, "the institutions themselves could become liable" to the student.

"We talked to (Education Dept. officials) over there about this problem, and they said it's just a technicality," Martin says.

"But it becomes more than 路just .a technical matter if you have to pay for the government's mistkaes," Martin contends. "While we'll have to make

~chool.

The biggest changes this year, Smith says are that guidelines for awarding loans go up to family incomes of $75,000, versus $100,000 last year.

Last year, the Reagan administration lt!tarted requiring all students . from families with annual incomes over $30,000 to pass a "needs test" before becoming eligible for a GSL. For the first time last year, students also had to pay lending banks a "loan origination fee' of five 路percent of the total amount of the loan.

Both provisions remain in effect under the proposed new guidelines, which were published May 3. ~ "I don't have any trouble with the ~ gitidelines themselves," says Dallas Mar- < ~tin of the National Association of Stu- ~ <i- dent Financial Aid Administrators. ~ "The big problem is that the Dept. of The Aurarla campus could be emptier next year because of federal student loan changes.

L------------------------------...-

awards on assumptions until (Congress finally approves guidelines), the institutions have to realize they could be liable."

The department had a similar delay last year in announcing new GSL regulations, which went into effect October l, 1981.

Martin attributes the latest department delay to "a lack of any kind of reasonable leadership over there. The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing."

"They talk about cleaning up management inefficiency of aid programs at the institutions, but you have to start at the top, and they have a very long way to go before showing they're capable of being responsible for this country's aid programs," Martin argues.

As for the changes incorporated in the provisional guidelines, Martin doesn't "think it's going to hurt many people."

Ending the eligibility schedule at $75,000 instead of $100,000 "seems a fairly reasonable kind of change."

Smith notes it's only been since October 1 that the major changes in GSL eligibility took effect. "I think we'll need a year under the new system to get a firm bead on the number of students who are affected."

A record 3.5 million students took out GSLs this school year, "and the vast majority of those were in the period of June through September, when students knew there was going to be some sort of big change. They wanted to get in before it took effect. I don't think we'll see that again this year," Smith predicts.

Budget blues Ir

lOWA CITY, IOWA (CPS)-College counselors first noticed last fall that more students were visiting counseling nters, most of them concerned over mpending cuts in financial aid.

Many of the counselors predicted then _ that such financial worries could have . serious effects on students' mental health.

Now a University of Iowa study reports that record numbers of students, are visiting the campus . counseling center with the "financial aid blues."

Over the last year, the number of students visiting the UI counseling center increased by over 35 percent, the study says, and cuts in financial aid and other money-related problems play a significant role in the increase. c ''It used to be that most students were worried about making it academically," says Ron May, di;rector of clinical services at the counseling center and director of the study.

"That's all changed now," he observes. "Now they are worried about ~ financial considerations. Many are not " sure they can pay for school next year."

In addition, May says, "The students are saying that their c9ncerns are urgent. We're seeing more of a crisis mentality. Students are coming in extremely upset that they can't get a loan

K

or into a financial aid program."

The biggest danger of the so-called "financial aid blues/' says May, is that it reduces a student's ability to cope with the normal, day-to-day problems of college life.

"It lowers their coping threshold," he says. "If they're having trouble with a relationship or something else, this saps their resources and_causes thPrn tn "''TTle

in for counseling when they woul otherwise."

May says the center is llseeing a lo students who would normally use xisting support sources-friends, fami y, and fellow students-but they just re ch their stress threshold faster, and n d additional counseling."

Typically, he says, financial aid is j one of the many problems that stude

bring to the center.

"Students are coming in with more multiple concerns," he reports. "They may have a number of worries-personal relationships, academic, social-and financial aid just throws them over their limit."

The counseling center 路 has also noted "a lot of suicide potential this year," May says, although the actual number of "psychological emergencies" has declined.

Overall, May says, "the average student hwo is having to cope with thin~ has more and more problems," and adding financial aid to the list could have "broad implications."

Community Service orientation sessions set The Community Service Development (CSD) program at MSC which prepares students, staff and volunteers to effectively 路 administer non-profit agencies~ has scheduled summer orientation sessions for June 15, July 7 and Aug 4 from 5:30 to 8 p.m. in room 212 of the Central Administration Building.

pay interest on GSLs immediately, instead of having the government pay it while the student is enrolled, Lilja says.

But the committee would keep the interest rate at nine percent instead of the "market rate" Reagan requested, and would keep the loan origination fee at five percent, instead of Reagan's ten percent.

After the committee passed the com- ~ promise, the president announced he would support it.

College lobbyists won't.

"A freeze is in effect a cut," asserts Ed Hanley of the U.S. Student Association (USSA).

• "Given the recent losses to inflation, how can students deal with a freeze along with service euts in the GSL?" asks Miriam Rosenberg, head of the Coalition of Independent College and University Students.

The Senate compromise, she says, "is ... total blindness to the needs of students."

All three lobbyists are worried that the Senate proposal-or any tampering with the in-school interest subsidies-would wreck the GSL program.

"Lenders (under the GSL program) 111 have depended on the in-school interest subsidy as a way of keeping costs down, and · making a reasonable profit," Rosenberg expla~ns. "Without it; lenders will have' an increased cost because of administrative problems and the obligation to collect interest due immediately."

In separate interviews, both Saunders and Hanley agreed. Hanley warned "you may find that banks are unwilling to make the (GSLs) to anyone without it bank account, a minimum deposit, or a ,._ good credit rating." " As for freezing the other aid programs, Saunders says, "We're looking at the same amount of students chasing the same amount of dollau as costs go up."

Hanley contends that "at current inflation rates, a freeze amounts to a 20-30 percent cut over the next three years." ,..

But Hanley adds that freezes are politically popular. "Everything is a ~ freeze in Washington right now."

Rosenberg hopes that, despite the waning of the academic year, student will increase pressure on their representatives to resist the freezes. "Thank heavens it's an election year," she says.

Op/Ed Handbook controversy spurs artists' comments .

Editor's note: The following letters were among those sent to Antonio Esquibel, MSC vice president of student affairs, in response to the May revision of the MSC student Handbook (see May 5 issue of The Metropolitan), and complaints about student artwork which appeared in the handbook. The authors of the letters sent copies ta _ The Metropolitan for publication.

Dear Dr. Esquibel: Illustrations of hand cliches as a theme for the student handbook was a creative and challenging idea. The enthusiasm, time, and energy (not to mention money) that I am aware went into this project is wonderful. I would like to commend those clever artists who's works were published.

I am aware of the nature of the complaints filed against the illustrations in the handbook. In response to them I would like to say, an art object alone, by itself, has always and will always be a topic for controversy. This is, naturally, bec.ause of the different ways different people view things.

However, I would like to point out that these illustrations are not standing by themselves, they are being presented together with a concept, an idea from which they have grown. This idea was of course, "hand cliches" .

The artists who created these illustrations worked with this one idea. Interpreting on one's own, any one of the illustrat~ns in the handbook without keeping in mind the cliche that goes with it is fine. However, any other concepts that a viewer might have are theif own, personal interpretations. The artists and their works should never be held .responsible.

I thank you for your time in this matter.

Sincerely, Iris R. Porter

Werges bid 'adieu' This edition of The Metropolitan will be my last. I will continue to deeply care about the survival of the campus paper. Moreover, I will stand tall every time someone mentions the Auraria·Campus. I first came to the campus before classes were being held here. The transition of a six year period has been incredible.

Auraria is one of the best educational experiences anyone can have in this country.

Emerson Schwartzkopf and myself began The Metropolitan in the beginning of 1979. All of the original crew has left the paper since then except for me. Now it is my tum. The paper will be left in capable hands and will continue to come out every scheduled week as it has for the last four years.

The Metropolitan is your newspaper. Everyone who picks it up is involved in the direction of this paper. I

urge veryone to continue to communicate with the paper Let the paper know by either a letter or a phone call at you feel of the paper and what you feel the paper hould cover. It is the philosophy of this paper to expr the views of everyone on this campus whenever I it can My experience here has been extremely valuable to me th personnally and professionally. Anyone who wants to enter the communications field in either a busin or journalistic sense should consider an involve ent with The Metropolitan . This has been the first p in many careers and will continue to be with your i volvement.

controversial "D" grade. I am not an artist myself, however both of my parents and my sister are professional artists so I am not unfamiliar with standards of the art world. Baca's work certainly did not look like "D" work to me. Baca said that Snyder has never looked at the portfolio. If this is the case, how did Snyder arrive .at the conclusion that Baca's low grade was "well-deserved"?

Secondly, in the event that Baca does prove his case, would firing the faculty members involved really be approJ>fia_,!:e? Baca himself has not asked for anyone to

be fir , he only wishes for the grade which he considers njust to be expunged and for a refund of his tuition f r that course. If the faculty members in question are fo nd to have discriminated against Baca would it not fair to at least give them a second chance?

In o e respect, at least, Snyder and I are in complete agree ent, if a full-blown investigation is required to resolv this matter let's go ahead and get it over with.

"There are prostitutes from here to Washington D.C.," Black sai9. "Grant money goes to everybody but the people who need it.

"They act like it's a privilege for me to be invclved in a program that costs the University about $4,000 a year before they collect tuition."

Black questions the feasability of a program supported by government grants in Colorado and points to the banquets, trips, and· salaries of administrators as obstacles to success.

Richard Dillon, associate dean of liberal arts, expressed regret that Black did not go ahead with the grant application.

"He never really seemed to follow through, especially in the area of grants," Dillon said. "He could have gone and gotten money for it. Whether it was paranoia or not, he was paralyzed by the reaction of his colleagues."

Dillon thinks it ludicrous that Black did not apply for grant money because of the inevitable skimming procedures of administrators, noting that everyone is aware of such skimming, that it's simply a fact of life.

Black points out that another fact of life is that many Spanish-speaking people are, for all practical purposes, deaf mutes in a pospital without the benefit of translat4,J:-s who are genuinely concerned about their health and survival.

He places much of the blame for this laissez-faire tragedy on institutional indifference, and on those who supposedly have the education and the power to do something about it but who just don't care.

The University's commitment to the community, Black said, boils down to getting lucrative grants, conning the legislature, and creating a false public image.

"One can fight the hate groups like · the Ku Klux Klan because they're honest and there are laws that can defend you," Black said. "It's ten times harder to fight this type of group (of administrators) than it is to fight a group tliat openly opposes you.

Arnold Weber, University of Colorado President, made the final deci.sion to refuse tenure for Jose Arguellos.

Weber calls Arguello's teaching methods "non-traditional."

Pena as mere generalizations.

"Presidents make grand generalizations and legislators buy grand generalizations," Dillon said. _ Black doesn't buy it. ~· .,.. "One of the problems with education is that you learn how to lie and then call it a generalization," Black said.

"Uneducated people understand that.

Perhaps I just never became educated enough to call a lie a generalization."

Whether lie or generalization, the • result is the same. To maintain the "balance" support for HELP is as nonexistent as HELP itself.

Before HELP, there was no public college accredited program for training medical'" s~rvice personnel to com- municate with their Spanish-speaking • patients. ; · Among those who feel a sense of betrayal at the loss of HELP are doctors, nurses, LPNs, social workers, medical technicians, and patients.

Dr. Harry Umlauf, private pediatri.cian and former Army colonel who ·• spent 28,_years with the Army Medical Corps, said a working knowledge of the Spanish language improves the effectiveness of medical care because patients are more receptive to instructions and more willing to carry them out. f · "~ feel very strongly about the fact that Spanish should be taught to medical personnel as a required subject," Umlauf said. "It's so essential for them to be able to speak Spanish, at least have a working knowledge of terminology. It improves the relationship between the medical personnel and the patients."

Umlauf, while stationed at Brook General HoSpital in San Antonio and during the time that he was the commanding officer at Rodriguez Army ; Hospital in Puerto Rico, worked in his spare time with the Sisters of Charity Free Clinic. His volunteer work was with Spanish-speaking children.

"At that time I wish I knew how to speak Spanish so that I could better explain their problems to them," Umlauf - said. "Had I been thorough in Spanish I would have been much more effective."

One of Black's former students with aspirations to enter pre-nursing studies expressed frustration at not being able to take the health care course in the Fall 1982 semester. There is no health care '!'course being offered by the Spanish department for that semester.

"I would have taken that health care course this fall if it had been offered," she said. "I have to take 60 hours of general studies before I can even think about nursing. A lot of times I couldn't fit a health care course in even if I wanted to."

The university has not yet revealed its plans for the health and social worker courses, or whether or not two years of previous Spanish study Will be t required for entry into those "applied Spanish" courses if offered.

"It's all very far down the road for us to really decide right now," Johnston said. "I hope one day we'll be able to build such a program;" Black sums up what he considers to be · -the plight of the Spanish-speaking and other disadvantaged.

"The University never gave a damn until they were forced to work with these people through federal laws or from fear resulting from the social of the '60s," he said. .... movements .

Dismissals raise tenure question . ·

The recent striking off the role of a UCD art history professor two days after he had been awarded a Teacher of the Year Award, and~the ousting of a UCD Spanish instructor who also shared the honor of the award, surface interesting questions concerning the tenure vs. nontenure politics held by the University.

Jose Arguelles, the art history professor, is what CU President Arnold Weber calls "non-traditional." His tenure was approved through the echelon in Denver where he teaches. Then it got to Boulder where the final decision was made by Weber.

.•

Weber labeled James Anthony Black, the Spanish instructor, as "average".

Shirley Johnston, program director for UCD College of Liberal Arts and Sciences calls his HELP program " not particularly cost-effective." Black was never considered for tenure.

Arguelles has written four books, one published by the University of Chicago and three published by a Buddhist press in Boulder.

Black's salary for Fall 1979 to Spring.

1980 was $13,056. He produced 532 credit hours. The three top salaried, tenured professors of the UCD Spanish department in that same year made a grand total of $55,906. They produced a· grand total of 515 credit hours, 17 less than Black.

Both of these teachers, nevertheless, received recognition by their students as outstanding teachers.

"From my perspective it seems rather hollow," Arguelles said. .

Black refers to the award as the "kiss of death" and says that in some cases it's parallel to being terminated.

clears way for new trial

continued from page l drugs which supported his deep depression.

The psychiatrist concluded that Shaw was unable at the time of the shooting to form the specific intent to commit murder required under the law.

Shaw's description of his actions just before the shooting seems to support that claim. Shaw said he tried to shoot Foreman after Foreman tried to stop him from shooting himself. Shaw said after he shot at Foreman Stubblefield grabbed him from behind. Shaw broke loose and turned and shot Stubblefield three times.

The examining psychiatrist said Shaw's reaction could have been a· typical "startled response" common . among heavy amphetamine users.

Greene refused to consider that evidence. Instead, the jury was insturcted to consider verdicts of first degree murder- committed knowingly, willfully and with deliberation- or second-degree murder- committed knowingly and willfully but with no premeditation.

Unless the jury returned ~guilty verdict for one of those charges they'd have to let the confessed killer go free.

The jury found Shaw guilty of seconddegree murder but the Supreme Court

ruled that Greene's actions unfairly limited the jury's discretion in deciding what crime Shaw was guilty of.

Foreman, then ·28, was tried before Greene in September of 1979. He was accused of being a complicitor (one who aids, abets or advises another person in the commission of a crime) and conspiring to rommit murder.

Foreman was found guilty of both charges and sentenced to life and addi: tional 25 to 50 years for conspiracy.

At his trial Shaw _completely exonerated Foreman of any involvement in the shooting calling him "a victim and totally blameless." Shaw was not tried for conspiracy.

Nine months ago the Supreme Court remanded Foreman's case back to the district court in Littleton to be considered for a new trial. The court ruled that Greene should have considered a post-conviction review of Foreman's case after Shaw's jury found him guilty of only second-degree murder.

No court date has been set· for Foreman's motion for a new trial.

Foreman is also appealing his conviction but no appeal could be heard until a new trial is held.

The International Committee Against Racism (InCAR) has been working to free Foreman and is optimistic about his

chances.

"InCAR feels this completely vindicates our position that Greene recognized the jury was likely to convict Shaw of something less than murder and there by making the conviction of Foreman all the more obvious," an InCAR spokesman said.

InCAR is holding several events to bring attention to the Roy Foreman case.

There will be ~ demonstration in front of the-Governor's Mansion at 8th Ave. and Logan St. at noon on June 19.

On Friday, July 9, InCAR will hold a benefit concert for Foreman in the multi-purpose room on the third floor of the Auraria Student Center. The concert will begin at 8 p.m. and will feature the bands Quarry playing industrial strength reggae, Direct Drive playing jazz and funk and the folk .ensemble, Peace Train.

Happily Heinlein has gotten over his second childhood need to splash sex on almost every page of his books. His cur- • rent sexual references fit in much better because he is no longer trying to hit the reader over the head with them.

However, Heinlein has found a new subject to rail about. This time it's credit cards. At least every eight pages or so _ there's a reference to credit cards. · Sometimes whole conversations revolve around nothing but credit cards.

Heinlein lets us know in no uncertain terms what he thinks of them-and that they will be with us even if nations rise and fall.

1 Where the novel lacks is in what Heinlein does not tell us. The story is set in a Balkanized North America, with national and corporate states constantly at war. But he does not tell us how this came about. That's not fair when half the fun of reading about future societies~, is learning how they grew and changed from the messed-up present.

Fridays adventures never~ lead her there. She seems to have very little curiosity about her heritage, even after the hint that her parents were a couple of the better intergalactic assassins.

Frankly, I was curious as hell to find out more about them, not to mention the planet Olympus.

The fast-action finish of "Friday' is typical of Heinlein's later work. I won't spoil it by revealing what happens, except to say that the ending, like the whole book, is a disappointing cop-out. 4

The Metropolitan June 9, 1982

feature Unique Ups and Downs of summersemesters

by Kathleen I. Humphreys

-

Sunbathing, tennis and vacations are summer pastimes. Summer semester intrudes on summer pursuits.

Summer semester differs from fall and spring sessions. The structure is different; the atmosphere is unique.

Debby Garber, a UCO1 student, says, "It's difficult to study in the heat. Giving up vacations and long weekends in favor of studying is a hard choice-it's frustrating to have no break from yearly activities."

John Montgomery, MSC Academic Advising, concurs.

"Summer is a time we like to be out and around; there is a lot of competition for students' time. The average student has more obligations during the summer-jobs, vacations and outdoor activities."

Campus cosmetics reflect this view.

The Student Center has installed out. door patio furniture at the north patio of the south classroom, the east patio of the Science building and outside of the Mission.

And downtown Denver echoes this emphasis. Areas that have been under construction are completed. Writers Square and the Denver Mall offer diversionary delight. The 1st Bank of Denver at 17th and California streets will sponsor weekly summer concerts during the noon hour.

Meanwhile, back at Auraria the five

and ten week courses constitute a major summer variation. Classes normally spaced over a fifteen week period are squeezed into a five or ten week capsule' with class meetings more frequent and assignments more pressing.

Deanna Aday, assistant to the UCO dean of student affairs, sees distinct advantages to this structure.

"It enables students to catch up on classes; for non-traditional students it's a convenient method of working toward a degree," Aday said.

Montgomery believes class intensity for sequential courses is profitable.

"A five-week course meets five days a week and offers more continuity. This is a good schedule for a person who desires routing and constant feedback," Montgomery said.

Keith Joseph, MSC math professor says, "If a student isn't taking a lot of classes, he or she can put more concentration into it," Joseph said.

Joseph thinks class intensity is more than compensated for by the fewer courses offered and taken by students.

Kathleen Deevy, a UCO education student, likes the summer structure.

"I like to take the class and get it over with," Deevy said.

"I don't have any choice," Deevy continued. "For some classes it hasn't bothered me a bit because of the nature of the class, but for something like Research and Evaluation Methodology-well, it was a difficult

four weeks."

Joseph points out disadvantages. He believes that for some classes the intensive structure is not appropriate.

"I don't think it's a good idea to put a semester course into a five week period," Joseph said. "Reasons for this type of scheduling have nothing to do with effective teaching-students and faculty

Summer

enrollment decreases

The summer semester changes Auraria's complexion.

Summer enrollment provides breathing and walking space. Campus clutter does not include a dense student population. 1981 summer enrollment at MSC was 7,049, 4,918 at UCO and 1,433 at CCD. Fall enrollment more than doubled. MSC had 15,014 students, UCO housed 9,809 and CCD signed 3,335 students.

Spring figures strained university seams. MSC enrolled 16,378, UCO -10,087 and CCD recorded 3,530.

The FTE (full time equivalent) for MSC in the summer of 1981 was 1,233.9, for fall- 4,575 and for spring - 4,533.8.

UCD follows with 793.8 FfE for

want half the summer off."

Montgomery agrees that benefits of class intensity depend upon the class.

"A rule of thumb for students is to gauge the overall time commitment by planning on two hours outside of class for every hour in class," Montgomery · said. continued on page 14

':hi

last summer, 2,683.6 for fall and 2,568.9 for spring 1982. CCD summer 1981 recorded 659 FfE, 2,148 for fall and 2,209 for spring.

(Current summer enrollment figures were unavailable for this story.)

While summer enrollment decreases, tuition sky-rockets. MSC and UCD tuition increase demands 13 percent more money. CCD raisedstudent fees $3 per semester.

Now for some comic relief. Parking, the chronic dilemma, offers summer solace-for downtown pai:kers.

Lot P, Q, Rand Tare the only lots to require decals.

Lot P is the PER terrace; lot Q is directly north of P between 12th and Speer street. Lots R and Tare parallel to and west of Q. Decals will expire Aug. 31 and must be replaced at the beginning of fall semester.

Library accessibility will decrease approximately 20 hours a week during the summer.

From June 7 to Aug. 13 the library will be open from 7 a.m.-9 p.m.

Monday-Thursday, 7:30 a.m.-5 p .m . Friday, and noon-6 p.m. Sun- "' day. The library will be closed Saturdays and July 4 and 5.

by Bob Sekula

"Tug of War"/Paul McCartney/Co!wnbia I'd just finished reading a third review of Paul McCartney's album "Tug of i..War." It received unqualified high praise-for the third time. "A long awaited masterpiece," Rolling Stone said.

Was there something wrong with me?

I must listen to the record again. Check • my perceptions. Be more open. '""; The second listening would, I hoped be my last.

But why the three adoring articlesP I've long felt "Rolling Stone" has drifted far into the vast middle-of-the-road and become the "People Magazine" of music .;doing the bidding of record companies.

The.reviews may also be attributed to a continuing memory .of, and yearning for, the days of fevered Beatlemania when Paul was the most popular Beatle.

How else explain the acclaim for such mediocre pap as "Tug of War's" title -(song or "Ebony and Ivory?" How ·else account for the adulation of John Len-

non's last and worst music in "Double Fantasy,'' where he nearly equals McCartney in soulless, sentimental trivia?

McCartney's lyrics and melodies sound like the doodles of someone with little to do-nothing pressing going on and nothing to say. He seems so comfortable. He's long gone soft as pudding.

The record is selling, but people gobble up prime-time TV, too. I'd recommend neither.

"Tug of War" does offer a vague vision. It says let's just get along in smiling, if ignorant, bliss. Consider this, from "Here Today:" Didn't understand a thing But we could always sing Never understood a wQ1'i . · • But you were always there with a smile Or from Ballroom Dancing: ' ll d l h We I use to smi e w en I was a pup Sailtng down the Nile in a china cup Till Ballroom Dancing, made a man _ of me.

"Ebony" and the title song are the big AM hits. These are safely, poppishly· pleasant-hum yourself into a mindless

oblivion of saccharinity.

There are a few lively moments from contributors. Stevie Wonder's "What's That You're Doing?" sounds like the prototypical Wonder song, but the music jumps. At least it breaks things ... up. Carl Perkins provides some fun guitar on "Getting It." But the album goes nowhere. In ·"Somebody Who Cares" Paul croons: There's nobody there, I know I know how you feel Like somebody has taken The wheels off your car When you had somewhere to go For McCartney it's more like he's got h h l b t 1 t t ~;k ~ s0 u n~ •.j a~ ~ g~d0 th .

"Combat Rock"/The Clash/Colwnbia Take a listen to the new Clash album, •"Combat Rock." It's not for everyone.

The songs call for a little effort, some attention and (!teaven forbid) thought.

The m'u sic is listenably accessible-less punkish than early Clash, but challenging and provocative, punchy and entertaining.

Clash's poeticly radical rock has been more popular among European than American youth, betraying a more in-

formed, critical stance toward Western society there.. ~lash. ~as an anticoryorate, anti-1mpenalist, anti-nuke attitude and . an empathy for Third W orl~ con~c1ous.ness not found in' Amencan ~r~e-tt.me ...

Overdrunk on power. Funk out/ In "Should I Stay Or Should I Go?" the group shows its rock roots. The piece is basic, beaty rock that rolls. The words · le-"Dari·mg you gotta 1et me are s1mp know... " Two of my favorite cuts ¥e "Straight to Hell" about Western devastation of. countless Vietnams and "Ghetto Defendant," a stinging, searing story of soured city energy pressured into escapes such as heroin. It is a masterful composition.

It's storyline and music are interspersed with the moving voice of Allen Ginsberg reading poetry.

Try it. Beatlemania is dead and won't get ya' smarter. "Combat Rock!' is energetic smart art.

Students survive summer heat continued from page 12 He reminds students that there is not a lot of time leeway; if time and ability are misjudged, the grade is recorded permanently.

Student attitudes are season-related; a unique atmosphere is created. Aday sees students being more approachable.

Students sit out on the lawn and sunbathe while studying-it's still a grind, but a casual attitude prevails.

Things are more open· and available, but because of this other problems develop. The opportunity for theft increases.

Windows and doors on cars are left open. Clothing is lighter with few pockets so belongings are left on tables or lying around.

Resale of stolen books and supplies is lucrative. Bicycles also need to be secured by proper locks and guarded by valid licenses.

The advantages of summer outwei11:h the risks, though, according to Deevy.

"I enjoyed summer school; it's-easier to park and teachers seem more relaxed in the way they approach classes," Deevy said.

Joseph agrees that the campus atmosphere is more relaxed, but he believes students are just as serious about their work.

"People generally view this school as a year-around school," Joseph said. "The difference is a career:oriented outlook.

Students want to get an education, but don't want to spend a lot of time away

"Graduates this year won't find the kind Liberal arts majors, Kayser adds, of market that they heard about when "aren't facing too much different in they entered school. I have confidence terms of the job market. Like in the they'll get jobs.

Still, technical grads are getting the grads." highest starting salary offers. Petroleum But in light of the unpredictable job engineers are drawing average offers of market, Kayser is advising all ldnds of $30 ,45~, up 14 percent over last year. grads to take job hunting seriously.

from the job market .."

Montgomery acknowledges students coming back for teacher certification.

"They are serious because it involves maintaining their livelihood," Montgomery said .

"There seem to be more professionals taking classes during the summer," Garber said.

There are problems peculiar to summer that balance the assets.

"Accessibility to faculty is limited because of reduced faculty," Montgomery said . "Questions specific to a major do not always achieve immediate referral."

Montgomery explained that MSC is not budgeted to be a year-around school. Either the demand for summer

does Jlot exist or lack of available resources decrease demand.

• Aday sees truancy and heat ranking as .. summer sideaches. Deevy does remember the sweltering July of '81.

"The air conditioning was being repaired at UCD in July of 1981-it was miserable," recalls Deevy.

Garber reiterates the lack of a decent temperature in the UCD building.

"Over hauling and checking the air conditioning in July did not seem to be a great move," Garber said.

Summer demands adjustment, but at the same time, offers benefits to the student not available during the defined, ~ academic year.
