Faced with new state-legislated budget cuts, the Auraria Library is proposing to eliminate one of three po~ible services. ~ In an open meeting held Fri.,_ day, Library Director Patricia Senn Breivik, said the amount of cuts, expected to total $225,000 has made it necessary to quickly decide where the facility should ~hold down operating costs. The meeting was held to provide students, faculty and staff an opportunity to ask-questions and voice opinions. 1.. With increased student populations and more public usage, service demands at the library have risen sharply over the past two years. Several people, including a lUCD student government representative and a faculty member, stated that the library should p~ on expenses to non- _,. students in the form of a user's ~ .fee, instead of eliminating ser- ~0 •

VICes.

Breivik pointed out, however,

that the library is -run with tax dollars allocated by the state. Agreeing with an earlier statement made by an MSC faculty member, she said that anyone interested in seeing a larger budget base for the library should begin by contacting his or her state representative, ·a nd by lobbying for more funds to be allocated for higher education. ·

A CCD student government spend supplemental enrollment representative said that the.addi- funds that come from increased tional costs created by budget cuts registrations. The library did not should be paid for by students receive a full share of these funds through a raise in enrollment from the ·previous spring fees. This view was ·harshly semester, Breivik said, because the institutions s~w other criticized by several students. The budgeting problem has priorities for spending the money, been further aggravated by new which was subsequently lost from rules, which have given each the library's budgeting base for AHEC school more flexibility to all future years. . Furthermore, the library must now purchase equipment with funds coming from its base budget, where previously capital expenditures were funded separately. Another $74,000 was "lost" when the _library took control of ad~inistering the Media Center in July of 1981. "CCD controlled the capital expenditure funds," Breivik said. "The library assumed these funds woulc! be tacked onto tae general operating budget, but the money simply disappeared." In addition to eliminating services, and the actual cause of service ~urtailments, some full-time

Jordan ·speaks to Auraria audience Jordan gave little insight to the behind-the-scenes operation of the Carter White House, although he did contrast the management style of Carter's presidential staff with that of President Reagan's top three advisers, Edwin Meese, James Baker and Michael Deaver.

by L. N. Beer Hamilton Jordan, who served former

> President Jiinmy Carter as White House chief of staff, spoke last Wednesday to a standing-room-only crowd at the Auraria Student Center. In a speech surprisingly free of political rhetoric; Jordan focused on what he said are the problems America faces in a future of • diminishing resources. Jordan appeared on campus to promote his book "Crisis," a memoir of the last year ot the Oarter administration. And promote it he did, even to the extent of jokingly suggesting that he might ~ set his hair on fire if he "thought it might sell a few books." / "President Carter has a new book out, too," Jordan remarked. "I don't know if mine is any better, but it is six or seven . dollars cheaper." Approximately 100 copies of "Crisis" .,_ were sold at an autograph party following Jordan's speech, according to Jan Pierce, book division manager at the Auraria Book Center. At $16.95 per· book, that amounts to $1,695.00 in revenue for the Book Center.

The former presidential assistant avoided harsh criticism of the Reagan administration, except to remark that he feels Reagan's economic policies are "totally bogus." He said he feels empathy for the problems which anyone working in the White House must face. Throughout his prepared - remarks, Jordan concentrated on what he says is the greatest problem facing America: "Our failure to understand the complex, interdependent, and fast-changing world in which we live." He also said that he fears nuclear proliferation which could lead to atomic warfare in regional conflicts among less-developed nations. "War is likely in an environment of scarcity," said Jordan. He emphasized the increasing depletion of food and energy as problems for which the United States needs to assert worldwide leader. ship. To support his viewpoint, Jordan cited a recent document entitled "The Global 2000 Report," which projects social, economic and environmental conditions at the onset of the twentyfirst century. According to Jordan, one prediction made in the report is the extinction of 20 percent of the world's

"People had the distorted image that the President, Rosalynn, Jody Powell and I slept together, got up every morning and made decisions we weren' t qualified to make," he said, but Jordan claimed that the vice president and the cabinet secretaries played a greater role in policy formulation than the media gave them credit for.

species of plants and animals due to drastic ecological changes. But Jordan said that despite these grim forecasts, he is optimistic about the future of the United· States. Although this country no longer enjoys a nuclear monopoly or energy independence, he said, we are still a powerful and prosperous nation. Jordan asserted that the United States has created more jobs per capita than either Germany or Japan, while the Soviet economy has failed to the point that it cannot provide enough food for its citizens. In concluding his speech, Jordan issued a rather traditional, patriotic call for a return to "hard work and good old American ingenuity" to solve most of the nation's problems. Before moving on to a bookautogra phing reception, Jordan answered questions from the audience for over an hour. In response to one query, he offered his reasons why Jimmy Carter failed to win re-election. Jordan offered three explanations for Carter's defeat: the Iranian hostage crisis, the poor state of the economy in 1980, and the primary-election challenges from Senator Edward Kennedy, which Jordan claimed were harmful to the ·strength of the Democratic party. Coincidentally, Jorqan's appearance was on the same day that Kennedy announced he will not be a presidential candidate in 1984.

More Pell money 1v1llable with new payment schedule "-

As a result of a recently published Pell Grant payment schedule, several stu~ dent awards at MSC will be increased. Because of the lateness of the new payment schedule, the increase of Pell Grant awards will be given on the Spr~ ing 1983 checks. StudentS leaving because · of graduat~on or transfers should ask the Financial Aid Office for a Fall 1982 increase. Only non-residents with an index between 0-1600 and residents with an index between 601-1600 will have an' increas- · ed a.ward. Please write the Financial Aid Office at 1006 11th Street, Box 2 or call

629-3043 if you are one of the nonreturning Spring 1983 students.

The materials to apply for financial aid at MSC in 1983-84 may be delayed because of a court decision as yet undecided. Financial Aid hopes t.o have materials for student pick-up by the latter part of February if all court cases are settled. MSC will no longer be able to mail out forms on a mass basis as in the past and will only mail forms when re- · quested by people who are not currently attending classes on the Auraria Campus.

When a reporter asked Jordan to predict who the next Democratic presidential nominee will be, the former campaign manager just smiled and said he didn't have any information not shared by anybody who follows national news. However, Jordan said that Kennedy's withdrawal from the races gives a boost to the budding campaigns of former Vice President Walter Mondale and Colorado Senator Gary Hart.

Comparing this style to the Reagan administration, Jordan said that "Baker, Meese and Deaver every day make major policy decisions on substantive matters. They're making decisions we would have never dreamed of making." Jordan's appearance at the Student ' Center was sponsored by the Auraria Book Center, the MSC Departments of Speech Communication, Political Science, Psychology, Journalism and the School of Liberal Arts, as well as MSC Student Government, MSC Student Affairs Board and AHEC. 0

"They would be more aware of how things were done," Kelly said, "it would be to their advantage. We want to get people involved so they know what's going on. Plus, they can be a real resource."

With their election victory now behind them, MSC student government ""President Michael Johnson and Vice President Brendan Kelly believe their work is just beginning.

We plan on delegating responsibilities to responsible people." Kelly1 is fiqnly committed to being truly representative of MSC students. To do so, he feels, he. needs to take ad- Jo-. vantage of the students who are seeking to become involved in MSC student government. "The more people involved," Kelly said. "the more representation we can have. The broader the range of people, • the more chance our decisions will be made correctly and in the best interests of all MSC students. "How else can we be representative if we don't involve everyone who wants to be?" Johnson is forming a student government advisory committee, which he believes will provide him with a variety of ideas and opinions on various issues. He also is looking for an accounting student with work-study eligibility to act as student government treasurer. ~ ''I think ifs very important for us to have our books maintained," Johnson said. "It's important for an administration to be aware of its finances." Johnson reported "approximately $20,000" is remaining of Associated Students of MSC's annual budget of $22,000, which is used to maintain student government offices, as well as for special events, which Johnson said there will be more of. "We need to be more innovative," (' Johnson said. "We plan to bring in a lot more speakers.

Michael Johnson, left, and Brendan Kelly discuss their positions.

Johnson announced the formation of a special events committee, which would be responsible for planning the various functions student government sponsored. Johnson and Kelly also announced their intention to "re-vitalize the judicial branch" of student government. "A lot of times this office can be abused," Johnson said, "and it has been in the past. I think the judicial branch must be re-instated as a safeguard for students and everyone involved in student government." . Both Johnson and Kelly agree student government at MSC has suffered because of recent difficulties in holding elections, but they are confident that image can be improved through actions. "The way I see it, you earn respect," Johnson said. "I think the best place to start is with communication, so the right unified decisions can be made."

staff will be cut. Breivik said these losses will be covered by hiring a greater percentage of students, possibly as much as 10 percent. Other costs will be studied to determine if there are expenditures which could be delayed or curtailed; already the purchase of additional terminals for the public access catalog system has been delayed until July 1. Some people at the meeting expressed the view that the library, in light of the budget cuts, has some unnecessary pur-

chases: an electronic display screen that flashes information to visitors, and 50 television monitors. . "The information screen was purchaseel some time ago, and at a reasonable cost," Breivik said. "Additionally, the system lets us eliminate the necessity of having a staff member stationed at the entrance to provide information, so better service is provided by freeing personnel to work in more needed areas. " Breivik said the 50 monitors were already purchased before the library

became aware of the budget cuts. "The system will save library personnel time," Breivik said. "It became costlier to buy this year and we needed it just to meet current demands; with the additional monitors it will save wear and tear on all our equipment." Of the few people in attendance who expressed an opinion about which service should be cut, all agreed on the telephone reference service, which provides 'information about currently available materials and services over the

It has since been decided after a joint meeting of the Library ' and Media Center Advisory Committees, to discon.r tinue the telephone referenee system. There are several ways the library might obtain more funds, including an agreement from the -Consortium Committee and the CU Board of Regents to raise the budget. Breivik said she plans to start fund-raising by soliciting dona-• tions from businesses and individuals who benefit from the facility.

Student Body Presidential Report

Fellow MSC students. This is the first of a series of news-letters with the intention of informing you qf the goings-on of student government. As many of you know, Brendan Kelly and myself were successful in our campaign for the office of A.S.M.S.C. President and Vice President. We'd like to thank all of the students who campaigned for us and those that elected us to office. This is our second week of office and you'll be happy to know that things are coming along slowly but surely as we make the transition from the Crepeau administration to the Johnson administration. Progress Report: 1. Previously the usage of the Prez column has not

its purpose

In our bylaws the purpose of our council is spelled out as follows: "The Student Facilities Policy Council, as a policy making body, shall be responsible for representing the students of the Auraria institutions in matters concerning the governence, maintenance and operation of the Student Advisory Committee to the Auraria Higher Education Board for formal approval. It is the objective of t.he Student Facilities Policy Council to represent the needs, interests -and overall concerns of the Auraria Community. In this spirit the board Will ac-

tively participate with the Advisory Committees addressing bond related issues." In order to -keep this letter as short as possible we will not go into SFPC's spelled-out.responsibilities. But if anyone is interested in learning more about the SFPC, please feel free to call our office at 629-3328. Respectfully yours,

dealt with the issues that really concern students and student government. Beginning the first week of the spring semester, the presidential column will be changed to the Student Government Report. The report will inform you, the students, faculty and administration, of the goings-on of the s.t udent government. The report will be written by various members of the student government to provide information on what the different committees are doing and on how particular situations are progressing. 2. Beginning the first week of the spring semester the st~dent government will maintain night office hours. I feel this will be necessary to better serve the night students who in the past have been neglected. 3. The curriculum committee has been fully assembled and has already started having scheduled meetings. The committee has appointed Dave Sutherland as acting chair. 4. The Student Affairs Committee has appointed Steve Shepard as chair. Steve represented MSC student government at the recent public hearing concerning

the library. Thanks, SteveI 5. I would like to inform you of our most recent appointments: Doug Martinez, Student Facilities Policy Council (SFPC); Joy Goldbaum, SFPC; Elizabeth White, SFPC; Ralph Hare, Curriculum Committee (CC); Eileen Batura, CC; Bernie Decker, CC; and Greg Wasinger, Chief of Staff. 6.

Women's issues seem to-predominate. Parker examined the relationship and ., resultant nuances between a man and a woman. She commented on the manwoman web: "Why is it that the cleverest woman on earth is the biggest fool with a man?" and "I always picked men who were handsome, ruthless and stupid.

Competition with other women over a man is highlighted in the well-executed bar scene where Ruth Seeber as Dorothy Parker comments on her gentleman .• friend's other girlfriend. _ "Edith looks like someone who would eat her young ...

Her impotent anger prompts her to say, "I wish he were dead, then I could remember only the beautiful times .. " Dorothy Parker attempted suicide several times earlier in her career, but she would rather order a five-course meal before she slit her wrists. She was probably describing herself when she talked about the - living dead among women. "Many women don't know they're dead, they are content with living death," Parker said. And her fear of old age colored her perceptions. "People should be young or dead; you can't teach an old dogma new tricks," said Parker. Career women, as well as Parker's self-perception as reflected by others, are gauged in this comment: "Calling us women writers was our ruin." Issues women writers usually dealt with "didn't roughen our hands or your minds." Parker's cynical attitude laced with humor is evident in her approach to fame and wealth. '~As a kid I had stringy hair and a yen to write verse. I thought I was smart, I still do. I wanted money and to he a good writer; I hate almost all rich people, but I think I'd be darling at it," Parker concluded. Ruth Seeber as Dorothy Parker portrayed her character with style. This production is similar to Gertrude Stei11 with Pat Carroll. Ruth Seeber performs for two 45-minute segments, also representing an early 1900 female literary figure. Seeber, as Parker, dr~ in a black skirt with matching overblouse, broken by layered pearls and net stockin~. She donned hats and accessories from an ornate hatstand; accessories corresponded to mood and content change. She executed changes without missing a beat. Needing to be twice prompted, she did not break character. As Dorothy Parker, Seeber smoked and drank incessantly. She was involv~ in this activity while confiding with the viewer audience, which shared intimate thoughts and feelin~ into the soul of a troubled visionary.

At home on the stage, Seeber moved from one scene to the other with effortless continuity. Whether typing assiduously while explaining her review or engaging in quiet introspection in easy chair and ottoman, the actress sustained Dorothy Parker. The set was simple, yet realistic, complementing the script. A centered table, laden with liquor on silver, is the focal point; full-lighting accompanies this spot. Subset existed in the four corners. One corner housed the accessoried hatstand while another focused on the typewriter, strewn papers - a writer's paraphernalia. • The opposite side of the set effectively utilized the easy chair and ottoman, and also.a solitary stuffed chair. The script lagged in a few spots when , movement didn't break verbage, but the one-woman show was quite good. The play will be performed Dec. 9-11, 16-18 in Room 278 of the Arts Building.

Joni's Wild Things' a redemption; by L. N. Beer

Joni Mitchell. Wild Things Run Fast. Geffen GHS 2019. Joni Mitchell has become rich and famous through the public exhibition and sale of her own emotional turmoil. One can't help but wonder whether Mitchell, in her search for fulfillment and acclaim, has subjected herself to undue psychic trauma for the sake of finding fresh song-fodder. Growing up in public is a dangerous trade. You've got to have guts in order to spill them before the world, as Mitchell has done throughout her 13-year career as a recording artist. But yeu run the risk that critics will dismiss you as a simpering floozy, and your audience will wither from the boredom .of watching your heart hang messily on your sleeve. Joni Mitchell has done a lot to deserve this kind of criticism. But Wild Things Run Fast is a redemption for her. It's a return to a musical mainstream she left behind after Court and Spark. Lyrically, it's her most successful effort to date at drawing connections between. her personal emo-

tional roller-coaster and the more universal pursuit of love, a fundamental part of the human condition. Perhaps most importantly, these are happy songs. It sounds like Joni may have found some of the solace she has craved for a decade. Wishy-washy and temperamental as she might be, you can't accuse Joni Mitchell of being a poor musician. She is one of those rare songwriters who is fluent in many musical idioms: the sweet home-grown folk of her fir5t albums; smooth California pop from the · period that produced Court and Spark, The Hissing of Summer Lawns, and He;ira; most recently, efforts at modern jazz which showed her to be more a dilettante than a diehard. Restlessly shifting through musical styles like they were lovers, Mitchell has been long plagued with a crippling lack of focus. On Wild Things Run Fast, her stylistic diversity has unified as if through a reverse-prism effect. The resulting sound is neither breathtaking nor a breakthrough, but it's much better than the.last four or five Joni Mitchell LPs, and deserves to be taken s~riously . And even enjoyed! And one last remark-- this LP is worth

its purchase price for no other reason than the remake of a 1957 Leiber-Stoller rock-and-roll rhinestone, "(You're So Square) Baby, I don't Care." Updated bubblegum brilliance, with guitar that snaps you around like the Mad Mouse at Coney Island.

strumental filler, but it's a little too.cold to be cool. It's all very prettified, not at all unpleasant, not very noticeable; to draw a food analogy, it's like spreadable margarine in a designer dish.

Bob James. Hands Do~n. CBS FC 38067. Will someone please tell Bob James that disco is dead? Hands Down is easily listenable in-

People who enjoyed Bob James' last three records will also like Hands Down. Those who prefer James' first four albums will continue to lament the fact that he no longer plays jazz. Continued on next page

makes a studied effort to sound stupid. DEVO is like Zippy the Pinhead in primal scream therapy. But...gosh, these guys take themselves awfully seriously. DEVO acts like they're making history, but they're only making sense, and only sometimes. And all that crap like radiation uniforms, "energy domes" and spudsuits just make them look like fools. At least on .this album these Ohioans are turning away from their early themes of "de-evolution" and reverseDarwinist nonsense. The new songs are slightly broader in subject matter: "Explosions," "Patterns," and "Deep Sleep" are pretty self-explanatory. "That's Good" is an ode to perseverance: "Life's a bee without a buzz/It's going great till you get stung/ and let us not forget to toast/everyone who might have missed the boat/ and to _everybody else who waiWuntil the next dne sails in again." "Big Mess" is the best song. It's about a cheerfully homicidal country-western

D.J.

DEVO still understands that you can have a good time even though the world is going to pieces, and I guess that's why I like them so much. They once billed their music as "the important sound of things falling apart," and their sixth LP

still has that boogie-to-the-bomb-shelter mystique.

Growing up in Akron must be pretty weird.
