Memos resurrecr··merger issues by Richard Bellizzi

The long-debated issue of restructuring the administrative structure of Auraria institutions is once again being raised, this time because of controversy surroun1 ding two documents linked to the CU Board of Regents. The two memos recommend the regents work ~oward elimination of the Auraria Board of Directors and the establishment of a cluster college concept with MSC, only to then push for a UCD-MSC merger under the regents. Despite regents' denials of any ~ impropriety, angry legislators last week demanded a formal explanation of the origins and purpose of the memos. CU Regent Peter Dietze, ap: ~ pearing before the Legislature's Audit Committee, expressed his anger at implications the regents "are going around plotting and scheming, because we're not," Dietze said. • Despite Dietze's contention that the regents had nothing to do

with the memos, Committee Chairman Rep. Paul Schauer said the regents are responsible for whatever their organization does. Dietze agreed to make a report to the Audit Committee when it meets again in March. In observing developments from his position as AHEC executive director, Jerry Wartgow is able to make comparisons between the recent alleged attempts by the regents to force a merger and his and the Auraria Board's efforts in 1978. W artgow, who assumed his position that year, stressed how the Auraria Board went to great lengths to involve the public when it prepared what has become known as the Bain Report, which made recommendations concerning -changes in the administrative structure of the Auraria Higher Education Center. The report recommended rejection of proposals that MSC, UCD and CCD-A be combined into one institution, and also that the campus be decentralized, eliminating

AHEC and leaving the three institutions as separate entities. It did, however, recommend the adoption of a "Two Institution Model," which would have merged MSC and UCD under whichever governing board the Colorado Commission on Higher Education and the General Assembly deemed most appropriate. What they deemed most app rop ri ate, though, was a "Modified Status Quo Model," which called for consolidation of duplicative programs, both academic and administrative, as well as delegating authority to AHEC as the ultimate decision making body involving disputes between Amaria institutions.

memo which details a plan to abolish AHEC and eventually absorb MSC, said the plan makes no mention of benefits to or affects on students. W artgow said the disclosure of the memos "probably saved MSC from itself." MSC provided UCD a willing ear, Wartgow said, to what UCD knew would not · work. The Auraria Executives Committee, comprised of MSC President Richard Fontera, UCD Chancellor Gene Nordby, CCDA Vice President Myer Titus and Wartgow, will meet Feb. 9 for the first time since the memos became public. Nordby has already send Fontera a letter assuring him UCD had no secret plot to take over MSC, and Fontera has indicated his willingness to discuss the situation with Nordby.

"This is where I came in," W artgow said, referring to the controversy surrounding a possible merger. "The situation is the same, the 'players' are the same; but I like to think the Auraria Discussion of recent Board handled it with a different developments has been placed on style, with a touch of class." the agenda of the Auraria Board's Wartgow, commenting on the Feb. 14 meeting. 0

Op/Ed 'Notes from the Underground'

; New life blossoms in paradise One of life's small tragedies: There are never enough good jobs in paradise. There are always people willing to starve in Key West rather than bank money in Cleveland, but the reality remains the same: nice geography goes hand-in-hand with high unemployment; the nicer the place, the more broke people you see milling around. And boy, do they look miserable. Being broke in Cleveland is much easier than being broke in Aspen, since there's l'lothing to spend money on anyway. A paradox: unemployment in paradise is sheer hell. One of the nicest, and therefore most miserable places to be broke is Shasta County, California. This isn't redwood c;ountry, and thank goodness for that. Redwood forests are dark and creepy. Like the mountains of Colrorado, the Shasta area has rugged peaks blanketed in pine. But in Colorado the pines alw,ays look puny and anemic, a reminder of the harsh realities of nature. In much of Northern California, the flora and fauna look as if they've been taking vitamins and working out at the spa. These are the bourgeois of botanicals. You can almost hear the sap rising. Shasta County natives look the same way. Retired loggers don't whittle rock on the front porch; they go down to the bar to flirt and arm wrestle, and maybe even get in a fight. Harsh realities aren't simply cushioned there, they are ignored. Or rather, they were ignored until the federal government stepped in some years back and closed off hundreds of thousands of acres of prime government land to the logging industry. Unemployment soared, and grim faces started popping up everywhere. Forest rangers and members of the Sierra Club were fr& quently mistaken for deer by unemployed loggers packing .30-.30s. Bar fights devolved from fisticuffs to broken bottles. The divorce rate zoomed. The windows of pick-up trucks sprouted For Sale signs, but there was no one left to buy. The natives, faced with a spread to maintain and outrageously high property

taxes to pay, were getting restless. The situation went on for two years, and was reflected in the life of my friend Frank, who had gotten used to a life of running heavy machinery for a zillion dollars an hour. When the roof started to cave in, Frank was one of the first to go. At first he took retirement splendidly he introduced himself to his children who he had rarely seen, walked down to.the unemployment office, and chuckled about making wages while he fished or sat on his duff. But unemployment insurance didn't quite cover the bills, and to make matters worse, Frank was spending a lot of time and money in the bars. The steaks he used to have for brea1cfast were replaced by Cheerios, and the kids that he finally got to know turned out to be spoiled brats. Expensive ones at that. ~espite a diet of beans and rice, Frank gained 40 pounds. He spent too much time indoors, and he star-ting looking like a good candidate for a massive coronary. I thought he was a goner. Then, something mysterious happened. Frank, who had learned some years before to tolerate the local population of tepee-dwelling longhairs, was now amazed to discover them buying rounds of Jack Daniels for everyone at the Happy Beaver and Come On Inn. These fellows "Who never worked a day in their lives," as Frank put it, were the only ones in town whose pocketbooks swelled and whose faces had escaped the ere~ of hard times. Not being a dummy, Frank started having these b()ys over for bull sessions - "whittling and jawing," he would say. PDQ Frank had disappeared from his favprite haunts. "Makin' improvements on the homestead," he'd say, with a look that stopped the questioning right there. One thing was for sure, Frank was outside doing something; he lost weight and returned to his usual mahogany brown color. Or so the rumqr went. Actually, nobody ever saw frank anymore. He might as well have fallen off the face of the earth. Through the whole summer, ques-

Questions about parking fees: Where is the money going? Student Government Report I would like to present a problem which- affects every human being who wishes to drive a car and attend class at any of the combined universities and colleges of the Auraria campus: the problem is parking. If you have driven to the campus, you are aware of what I am writing; if not, allow me to enlighten you. Over the past few years parking fees, which I have always considered outrageous, have been charged here on our campus. Recently, increases have occurred which have doubled those fees. It is my feeling that students who have also been subject to rate increases in their tuition should not be subject to these additional expenses. To complicate matters further, I was informed that not only do I have to pay to park my car at an institution which I am already paying for the , privilege to attend, but I am also required to have a sticker to be allowed to park there. I practically had to beg the attendant to allow me to pay money to park here. It is my understanding that an organization called Auraria Higher Education Center (A.H.E.C.) is operating our parking system. An organization originally formed to do maintenance and protect the students' interest assumed the responsibility to pay off

bonds which were used to· purchase the school. Somehow, with 30,000 cars parked here daily, I question the time this purchase is taking. So how can they justify these increases. I have tried to find the answer to where our funds have been going. After addressing this question to A.H.E.C. administrators, I found myself talking to air. This only leads me to believe that my perception of mismanagement of student funds is a reality. As far as solutions, until we can collectively join to meet and find where our funds are going and where they have gone, I can only suggest riding the bus. Maurice Nissim Advisor to A.S.M.S.C. President P.S. There will be a legislative update in next week's addition.

Explanation Because of the high level of enthusiasm with which we prepared our Feb. 2 issue, the last thirq of Carson Reed's Notes from the Underground was inadvertantly left out of the newspaper. The Metropolitan regrets this oversight and invites anyone who wishes to read the column in its entirety to stop by our office and pick up a copy.

tions of "How's Frank" were greeted with shrugs. Then, Frank mysteriously reappeared in the fall with a new pick-up truck and a sparkle in his eye. Frank would not, and will not, talk about his financial affairs, not even with his dearest and closest friends. But he paid his property taxes that year, a year when government foreclosure notices dwarfed the help wanted column by about ten-to-one. Frank's friends began to watch him closely. He was back to his old self, except for a couple of peculiarities: when planes flew over his front porch, he'd start to sweat. He chased kids off his property with a loaded gun. "Hell, they ain't doing no mischief, Frank," someone would say. "Like hell they're not," Frank would mutter. It didn't take too long to figure out that Frank had something stashed back there in the scrub oak. One thin·g was for sure it wasn't a moonshine still. Whatever it was, on&by-one Frank's friends figured it out. Then, their friends figured it out. Then, everbody in Shasta county figured it out. New pick-ups flourished. The loggers' spoiled kids· were flush with braces and Izods. 'Paradise returned. 1 Now me, I'm not even going to venture a guess at what Frank was doing back in the woods behind his house. It was his business, and none of mine. But I will tell you one thing - if James Watt ever re-opens Shasta lands to the logging companies, he's going to be in for a nasty surprise when the whole of Shasta County unites with the Sierra Club to stop him. Everything flourishes in the lush paradise of Northern California, 0 and a lot of things are more valuable than wood. Canon Reed

Hearts, flowers, cupids and candy... that special day when ·tender messages are pimed between people who .care. (Sometimes these messages are not so tender, i.e. the St. Valentine's Day M~acre. ) Remember when you were a kid and spent hours writing names on the back of a card, laboring over which valentine to choose for which person. Did you ever wonder how it all started? According to Butler's "Lives of the . Saints," Valentine was an early Chris'tian priest, known to be celibate, who probably would have turned over in his hairshirt had he been aware of his future place in history. So how, you ask, did the poor man come to be associated with such goings-on? Apparently, one of the most important festivals celebrated by the ancient Romans was the feast of Lupercalia, a spring fertility rite especially concerned with young people, involving animal sacrifices, half-naked youths dashing about the streets, acquie$Cent maidens, and the usual brouhaha for which the Romans are so well known. When the Romans invaded Britain, this colorful tradition was established on the islands. It remained intact through the genera-

tions along, one may assume, with the roads. With the establishment of Christianity, the Church Fathers in their wisdom set about to substitute Christian beliefs and the names of saints for longestablished celebrations - their thinkhig being, logically, that a party is a party no matter what you call it. Thus, St. Valentine, martyred on Feb. 14, became associated with the spring festival of Lupercalia, which took place on Feb. 15. The earliest written references to mating associated with St. Valentine's Day concerned the pairing of birds, and there is a wonderful description by Chaucer in his "Parlement of Bryddes." It was a popular belief during the Middle Ages that all birds paired in the spring and, as the medieval populace seldom got that far north, they never found out about peQguins. Keeping Lupercalia in mind, it's easy to see how one thing led to another. In the 16th and 17th centuries, it was a popular custom to draw names by lot, the person chosen being the special friend of the other for the forthcoming year. This particular activity was generally practiced among the affluent and was, perhaps, not the best basis for an intimate friendship. But, humans

being creatures of habit, it took two or three hundred years for the custom to die down, and probably worked as well as anything else. The exchange of gifts has always been associated with Valentine's Day, including gloves, which the lady would wear on Easter Sunday, jewels, and garters. The earliest pictorial valentines date back to the beginning of the 18th century,,, p_i;\ginating in Germany, and were not card size, as they are today, but on normal size sheets of paper. The custom of exchanging valentiJ!.e cards became prevalent with the establishment of the penny post in both England and America. The heyday of the Valentine was the mid-ninteenth century, the custom dying down around World War I when life seemed considerably less romantic. It was kept alive in America by schoolteachers, who apparently thought it a good idea for their pupils to express positive feelings toward one another at least one day out of the year. There are several connections between popular terms associated with love and early beliefs, other than the aforementioned "birds and the bees."

The saints have often been associated with the curing of illnesses, and Valentine was somehow associated with diseases of the mind, and "the falling sickness" (Falling in love, perhaps? Maybe our forebearers were more cynical than we think.) The origin of the word "wolf' probably comes from the Greek word "lykos" and its associa'tions with the word "lechery".

DSO ends program with UCD The Denver Symphony Orchestra will present a free concert at Boettcher Hall on Thursday, Feb. 10, at 8 p.m. The show will conclude a week-long "inresidence" program with the University "of Colorado a~ Denver that has given UCD music students and faculty working experience with a professional orchestra. UCD faculty and students have the luxury of trying out new concepts inside the unusual new Boettcher Concert Hall, which features remarkable round architecture. The UCD College of Music currently offers a rare assortment of practical programs geared towards innovative careers in the music industry. Students here can elect instruction leading, towards music management (copywriting, talent agencies, studio ownership), recording and sound synthesis, and scoring and arranging such as for movie or television soundtracks - in addition to performance. Because this school's roots are so deeply set in the technical aspects of recording and electronic music synthesis; many of the compositions of the faculty and students showcase avant-garde ex' pression, utilizing techniques such as computerized interaction with orchestral player~ and synthesized . tone generation, as well as forward-looking arrangements incorporating polytonalities and complex rhythmic structuring.

. Ringmodulation Three - a concert9 for synthesizer and orchestra composed by Professor Roy Pritts. Ring modulation, the physical phenomenon upon which this composition is based, occurs in nature in the oscillations of wind caves and tree trunks, and in certain other man-made devices, such as church bells. It may be described simplistically as a mode of vibration that results in both the mathematical sum difference of the musical source tones rather than their combination which occurs in conventional musical instruments. ·

grim wartime poems by Matthew Arnold and Thomas Hardy, and sharply dissonant tonal textures, this piece expresses a personal sense of grief about the inevitability of tragic human conflict. Each of the three movements revolves around a central pitch serving to unify musical and textu~ expressions.

~roughout Europe _and the United

States. Boettcher Concert Hall is located at 13th and Curtis. For more information 0 call629-2727.

Professor Pritts will solo upon a Moog synthesizer employing melodic motifs and variable carrier frequencies - the ring modulations of which will be transcribed into orchestral texture. Boettcher Hall should be an excellent setting for this piece, which employs powerful, repetitious rhythmic structures somewhat reminiscent of Stravinsky's "Rites of Spring." Promulgation - an interactive composition for computer and orchestra by Professor Robert Ensey. In this piece, the orchestral players, divided into three sections, first listen to motifs played by Ensey on a computer - programmed in a series of probabilities and :hierarchies which have specific meanings within sentence-like structure. The orchestral sections then reply ~ith auxiliary and solo scores according to instructions based on a compositional vocabulary. This arrangement results in non-synchronous polyrhythmic textural overlays bound to be fascinating.

Some of these fascinating works will be presented at the upcoming Boettcher Hall concert and are sure to be of great interest to anyone curious about or involved with modern musical directions. To better understand these late 20th ~ntury musical pieces, some explanations of their inner workings will prove

Harpsichord strings are plucked rather than hammered as in the case of the modern piano, and ,as a result they cannot express emotion in the form of volume dynamics. The concerto will be performed by the accomplished pianist Zoe Erisman - a UCD faculty member since 1974 who has presented concerts

Mites Davis excee.d s the limits by Tim Cowhide Miles Davis in Concert Rainbow Music Hall Jan . 29, 1983

-

In the late 50s and 60s, when musicians like John McGlaughlin, Herbie Hancock, Joe Zawinul and Chick Corea were cutting their musical teeth with Miles Davis, jazz followers were predicting that through his influence and nur~ng of their abilities Davis would help them to establish themselves as some of the best progressive musicians for years to come. His abilities as a jazz composer and mentor of fine young musicians have allowed him tremendous freedom to experiment with different sounds in jazz and build them in around his tightly wound trumpet solos. Now, in 1983, the man and his horn are mellowing, but his music is developing new definition and clarity as it reaches out in new directions. With his current band of incredibly gifted and powerful musicians, Davis, 56, exceeds the limits of hard-driving rock, funk and mainline jazz to achieve a fresh and electrifying style of music

· that defies categorization. Though held together by the tight base lines of Marcus Miller and powerful drummer Al Foster, who masterfully outlines and underscores the reed and guitar solos, Davis is the conductor that keeps the freight train on the track. Whether he uses hand signals to lay down the tempo, or solitary notes on a synthesizer to mark the beginning or end of a rift, he maintains a remarkable stage presence that steadies the players and sustains the intense pace of the music. Although some of the solos were cut too short and did not develop as fully as po~ible, some of the most interesting phasing and richest chord harmonies came from John Schofield, the inore im- . pr~ive of two lead guitarists although he was featured l~ often and Bill Evans, a gifted soprano/tenor saxophonist (no relation to the late Bill Evans, pianist) who in his early 20s is already considered by many to be one of the finest reed men in the country. Their interpretive styles and uncanny technical abilities blended well with Davis' trumpet, adding richn~ and definition to his complex melodies.

inner conflict and a tension- that is sometimes overpowering for even the devoted listener. But, on this night, the music was fast-paced and flowing and conveyed the band's intense energy and jubilation to an enthusiastic audience. The music was much more cohesive than some of his middle-60s free form

and more unified and melodic than the psychedelic jams with McGlaughliq... Corea and others. However, as is his trademark, Davis is again cutting new paths in progressive jazz and breathing new life into a musical genre that many people feel has been losing its prominence on the popular scene. 0
