~ ROTC ·enrollment by Carson Reed

.. · (CPS)--The. number of Reserve - Officer Training Corps units on college campuses has grown steadily since the height of the Vietnam war, and it continues to grow faster every year. _ _ , ~ Since 1979 the number of ~ROTC post institutions has grown · from 275 to 315, with a national enrollment of 73,819 cadets, up from a low of 41,000. in 1972. One of the programs to spring up l'" in recent years is the ROTCDenver program at Auraria. When ROTC first arrived.here in 1981, it was an extension center from the ROTC unit at CU • .,Boulder. In 1982 it became a fullfledged "post institution," and the number of students,- teachers, Jlasses and scholarships has steadily grown. Enrollment is at . an all-time high of 85 students, up '164 percent from last year, according to L~ Col. Fred Sheldon, administrator for -the ROTCDenver program. "This summer will be the first """time . we've. had a complete teachh.lg staff," Sheldon said, ad-

Over half of the students involved in ROTC - soll}e 43,000 - received money from the Pentagon in 1982. The vast majority

of those are juniors and seniors in the ·advanced program who have signed contracts for military service following graduation. Students in those advanced courses receive $100 a month while in ROTC. In a recent Pentagon survey of 5,600 cadets, 43 percent listed college financial demands as a contributing factor in their enlistment. And siilce ROTC money is·not based on need, the money is available to students who might not qualify for Pell grants and other forms of financial aid. In addition to the stipend for juniors and seniors, ROTC scholarships have drawn more and more attention from students. "Last year, six of ou~ cadets applied for scholarships," .Sheldon said. "They all got them. This year, we have 16 applying, and our hopes are high that 100 percent of them will get the money."

According to Dave Stevens of CoPIRG, the organization's main purpose is to work on environmental and consumer issues throughout the state of Colorado. ti. "We comprise the largest citizen action group in the state," Stevens said. This, he said, makes a big impact on legislatures. The concept behind CoPIRG is that students are willing to tax themselves to Jorrn a group that will work on the issues which are most important to students. . Since CoPIRG works on many up to date issues, people are needed to do everything from circulating petitions to conducting research. Students who work for CoPIRG are eligible to receive \tp to 15 hours of credit while at the same time gaining valuable experience · in their field of study. For example, a student majoring in

MSC program teaches 'hard skills' •I by Lisa DeU'Amore

Lots of people tried to save the world · in the '70s. Roger Kahn was one of them. In / ~1970, he left the crowded city streets of New York and headed for the Rocky Mountains of Colorado .. He- was involved in the entire '60s movement, fighting for peace, civil rights and an end to the Vietnam war. He traveled a lot and spent little time 4 with his family. Since then, Kahn has shunned his political activist base and eased his hectic lifestyle, although he still insists he leads a "pressure cooker life." Today, he saves ~tudents time and \money by teaching them applicable skills for future administrative jobs. Kahn is director of the MSC's Community Service Development Program, in the School of Community and Hu·man Services. The six-year-old program is designed to teach students the ad-. '1:ministrative skills .needed to work with non-profit organizations. "If you're going to be useful and employable today in social services work, non-profit organizations, church organizations, health and welfare Qrganizations, civil rights and women's <•~ights organizations, you need some hard skills," Kahn said. Students interested in careers with these organizations are taught over 30 basic skills needed for conducting group business. -~~ Some of these skills include fundraising, communications, decision-making, research methods, time management and report writing. Students learn these skills through 30 credit hours over a twosemester period. Classes are held night· ly twice a week. r Students must also serve a one year internship with an agency of their choice. This fall, 50 agencies and organizations throughout the Denver area, including the American Civil Libertles Union, the Colorado State Ballet and the National Alliance of Business, are of- "tering scholarships to students in the program. The scholarships are lieing offered by the same agencies seeking student interns. These agencies want interns, Kahn said. .1 "It's a great inv'estment," he said. "They (the organizations) can't get a better. bang for the buck."

Recruiting student interns is very valuable for these groups, Kahn said. "What they're getting is someone who will develop a good brochure for them or become involved in managing the books... or writing proposals for the,n,'' he.said. More importantly, he stressed, the internships being offered are not "go-fer type" jobs. Students will not be filling agency newsletters or mimeographing W-2 forms . • "We• would not let that happen," Kahn said. ,... Instead, students work directly with either the executive or the associate directors. They may also work with volunteer, development or public relations directors. Once students complete 20 credit hours in the program, they receive acertificate for work accomplished in the administrative field of a non-profit group. Students may then expand their skills and continue in the field without com- According to Roger Kahn, you need hard skills to ee useful and employable today in the social services. pleting a four-year degree.

Opportunities available for students who acquire the basic skills include administrative jobs such as assistant directors, associate directors, proposal writers and public relations directors. Despite a general consensus that there are no available jobs in the community service development field, the opposite is true, Kahn said. The reason layoffs are being made is because people do not have the skills . needed to work in non-profit groups. Under the designed program at MSC, however, students obtain the necessllry qualifications for jobs in the field. "Give people who care the skills and smarts or capabilities so that they can implement these skills when they care," Kahn said. This summer, because of the demand for classes in c_ommunity service development, students ·who -don't want an internship but want the skills, can register for the available courses.

View from -t he cutting room floor • I don't know about you, but over the years I've accumwated a lot of peculiar jobs - the kind that you would never put on a resume. - Once, I helped unload a high-tech convention at the Superdome in New Orleans. Crates and crates and crates of computers and Xeroxers and security thingamabobs and temperature-control gizmos, all being man-handled by an oblivious crew of hundred Mardi-Gr.as denizens from all over the world. Once, I worked at a spice factory in California, sweeping up piles and piles of ground spice after everyone else went home. Everything smelled and tasted like cumino and cinnamon for weeks after I left the job. Once, I barbequed chickeilli at the Nevada State Fair, standing over a pit that looked like the trap door to hell until my hands and face were as seared and basted as the drumsticks I tended. But the weirdest thing I ever did was to work in the movie Heaven's Gate, one of 2,000 extras on location in Wallace, Idaho. · You've never seen anything like it - here were all these people, mostly middle-class folks from Spokane, all gathered together to fulfill a secret dream. For $30 a day, this group got up at four o'clock in the morning to make the long drive to Wallace, got smeared with studio make-up, covered with grungy black smoke, and -stood out in the baking-hot Wallace afternoon wearing button-top suits with wool overcoats.

manipulation to motivate the throngs. Before the process began, these 2,000 people were all friends and neighbors, but by the time two weeks of shooting had passed, Cimino had succeeded in making them believe in their_roles, and a tangible cloud of animosity grew up between the different groups of extras. Group number one were the rich people. They were the first ones to use the high-school-cum-dressing room each morning, donning their fancy threads in an area separate, but visible, to the other extras. Group number two were the townspeople, rushed like cattle through the dressing process. And, alas, poor group number three, the destitute immigrants, was hurriedly dressed and then marched out in the cold pre-dawn to have greasy smoke blown onto their choking faces. Then the buses were loaded and everyone was carted off to the ~eets of Wallace, carefully made over to look like downtown Casper Wyoming, circa 1890s. . The "rich folks" were the first to get coffee and donuts, chatting easily at their leisure. The last, of course, were the immigrants, who never got the chocolate ones, and sometimes got none at all. Durini;i; the heat of the day - sometimes hovering near .100 degrees - the "aristocracy" were provided with a shaded tent and chairs to lounge in. The rationale for this was that their costumes needed to be clean and unwrinkled, and so they couldn't be allowed to crouch on the ground with the rest of us. Likewise, shots involving the aristocracy were completed first, allowing them to leave well before the end of our usual 16-hour day. . The cumulative result of these tactics was no~hing short of amazing. On Day One of shooting, Cimino'-s immigrants were smiling and cheerful, full of the glamour of movie-making. But by the end of the third day of shooting, the immigrant extras had lost every bit of that exuberance, arid shuffled around with exhausted, downtrodden looks on their faces, casting evil glances at any passing silk top hat or velvet overcoat. At night, after the shooting was over, the immigrants were still easy to spot even in their regular clothes. They looked hungry and haunted, and they didn't associate with the other extras.

At the helm of our national movie stands Ronald Reagan, preaching the gospel of supply-side economics. • Like Cimino, Reagan doesn't have the time to teach 250 million people how to act in this new economy. He wants us to be eager workers, self-sufficient and full of the "spirit that made this country great." The administrative cutbacks in aid programs h_ave made the lines for food stamps -and unemployment ever longer, and the treatment at the front desk ever J more impersonal. It is a demeaning process. Is our government giving us a message when they ask to lower the minimum wage? Aren't we worth $3.35 an hour? · What message does an urban dweller get when clean air standards are relaxed? Is he worth less as a human ._ · being than a suburbanite? What does a child think when the government says the school lunch program shouldn't be concerned that he get enough protein or vegetables? Now, I'm not going to accuse the government of a conspiracy to establish a new social order in America. As a friend of mine likes to say, "Those guys are too • . stupid to even think of that." But conspiracy or no conspiracy, the result of their actions is to create the same kind of atmosphere that Cimino created on the set of 'Heaven's Gate, creating an illusion of privelege that solidifies quicldy into a concrete reality. It is an illusion that undermines the very spirit that Reagan claims made this country '- · great. A new Hollywood western is in the making, and all but a precious few of us are just extras likely to end up on the cutting room floor. What sort of movie will this country make with Ronald Reagan at the helm? I don't know, but he is an altogether less hip God than George Burns. "' Carson Reed I'

WeirdJetters are best, except. A new pen, a full pad of paper, and ample elbow room. What more could I ask for? (A beer ... prime rib ... and fifty bucks. That oughta do it for a while.) These are the basic materials for writing a letter. Letter-writing is one of my favorite pastimes. By virtue of having friends and relatives dispersed throughout the United States (they found out where I was living, and scattered) , I find that the medium of the mail is a cheap and easy method of keeping in touch. What perturbs me is that the majority never write back( (Except at Christmas, or if I owe them money.) I believe there are two potential reasons for this lack of response: REASON Hl - The bizarre twist my letter-writing has taken. I've learned to avoid such banalities as the weather (no one really cares), and my financial state (ditto). I dwell, rather, on those topics that are beyond the scope of the ordinary. For example, imagine sitting in your living room, at peace after a hard day, and opening a letter that begins: "Did you ever wonder why Vincent Van Gogh, the mad artist, sliced off one of his ears?"• In my opinion, there's a subject worthy of note. But, apparently, some people are turned away by it. In fact, my folks wrote back concerned as to if I had been kidnapped by a cult or something. Yet, I still think it's better than marveling at the freaking weather.

REASON #2 - Letter-writing is -dying due to the speed and convenience of modern communications. Why write when it's so much simpler to pick up the phone, and push the touch-lone - "Hello, ma?" The end result of all this.is that no one knows, or cares, to write a decent (or indecent) letter anymore .. " . Indeed, letter-writing is rapidly becoming a lost art. ' In an effort to revive the craft, the following are a few suggestions and personal observations: First of all, do not begin a letter with such an overworked and unimaginative greeting as "Dear... " Start the proceedings with true emphasis and feeling, something like "Hey Suckah!" (Don't try this with'\.. your folks, as described earlier.) The success of a letter depends on the attentiongrabbing quality of the content. The intent of a letter should be to provide a lift in the life of the recipient. Don't write about the lousy day you had. The person on the other end is probably having one, too. So, if nothing exciting is happening in ,your world, make,.} something up. You'll feel better for it. · "Take caution when writing to people with children. It has come to my attention lately that some people would rather not hear from me because they are worried their children might accidentally get aliold of my letters, and experience a childhood trauma: To reduce the likelihood of such an event, draw a frowning skull-""" and-crossbones on every envelope.

AGive students a.chance to make ·.· mistakesDear Editor, Something has to be done in the Computer Lab areas. The area that requires immecliate attention is :-, program compiling. In the past, user compiles were accumulative, which allowed for unlimitecl use of compiling time. However, this semester, we are allowed only 25 compilers per programmer, per week.

This may be a cost saving factor for the school, but it hampers the full potential of the.system. After all 25 compiles are used, the programmer is deprived of one . of our most effective leam.i ng techniques, trial and er- · ror. How are we supposed to learn from our mistakes if we aren't allowed to make .any?. Do you really think it fair to deprive us.of this when

we are paying for 'our education? ' ' ' . .

Honest examination and rational decision-making are long-term preyentative measures for child abuse. Other means include education for parental development of self-love and for methods to re-direct anger, according to Turman. "Schools need to educate children in routes they can take to get advice or to report," Turman said. "Many children are afraid of losing the parent and so don't report the abuse." Children should also have more of an idea what normal family life is supposed to 'be, that certain types of behavior are inappropriate, she said. "Now we're seeing that what happens behind closed doors is our business," she said, "because that abused child, if not afforded therapy or some type of intervention, will grow up and have a relationship with someone you know." Children have a right to learn about death. CCD Psychology Professor Dave Dolphinger spoke April 5 on children and death. Dolphinger explained the development&! . stages children grow through in understanding death. Infancy to age four children relate to the feeling of nonexistence, when things are out of sight they cease to exist. But a child gradually begins to associate death with old age when be reaches age fi.v e, Dolphinger said. The advent of age six ·witnesses a child beginning to associate death with punishment and violence. But the problem, he says, is that the child gets the message death is reversible from cartoons and TV violence. Children become more vulnerable to relif'ous teachings of hea:ven and hell as wel as subsequent consequences of wrongdoing. Also, children feel responsible for a death if they previously wished the deceased dead or if they said something mean prior to death. "This is a very harmful stage and a child can carry that guilt a long time," Oolphinger said. "It's important that parents recognize it." By age seven the child views death as an acceptable form of control when he threatens, "I'll kill myself' to get attention. It isn't until age nine or 10 when children begin to ask specific questions and begin to understand that death is irreversible. Dolphinger advises talking to the child honestly and involving him in the funeral process when he is interested and/or introducing him to a funeral with a person he is not close to. A child has the right to good parenting. Instructor Lynne Forstot explained the Parent Effectiveness Training model on April 7 of the Week of the Young Child. The model stresses two-way communication.

~ -during annual "The whole process is built on respect ior each other," Forstot said. "It's not going to be a matter of, 'You have no right to feel that way.' " Forstot outlined two commonly used methods of parent-child interaction. In the power model, the parent wins, the child loses and the child builds -resentment. "Sometimes the parent uses power because it's expedient," she said. The permissive model lets the child win. The parent loses and the parent

labors under resentment before reaching the point of, "I've had it" and returns to the power method. Parent Effectiveness Training offers an alternative, where parent and child both win. A mutual solution produces mutual respect through six steps: defining needs, brainstorming and choosing solutions, taking action and checking results. . "There are two types of discipline as we see it," Forstot said. "The type of discipline that someone puts on someone

Everyone knows sprlng is a ti~e. of rebirth, _a time to enjoy long, ~tinny afternoons and the aroma of new apple· . blossoms dri(ting through the air with the warm southern breezes. · But what many don't know is that as the smells of spring return to·the air, so do the vibrant sounds of jazz. . On March 14, KRKY in Castle .Rock abandoned its soft-rock (adult contemporary) programming and installed a 24-hour jazz format. KRKY features some of the finest .announcers ·in the country and an entire stldf comriiittecf to presenting the Denver area · jazz fans with a wide variety of top-dr.awer· jazz,. something that has been missin·g on the airwaves since KADX fell victim to the "urban cowboy syndrome" and was sold" to make room for yet another country.western station. KRKY was bought in January 1983 by Baker Broadcasting Corp., and when the new ownership was granted a license in March to broadcast jazz, the first authentic jazz station in the Denver area in nearly two years was born. it plans to boost its signal as early as Although the station's broadcasting July, according to Pat McNulty, program power is a relatively weak 3,000 watts, director of the station.

"On July 1, the FCC will (relax restrictions) on Class A stations like KRKY lo enable them to increase their signal to 15,000 watts," he said. The boost in wattage should allow most, if not all, Denver jazz listeners who can't already get the station to pick up a good signal at 92.1 FM. But even with the increase in power, McNulty doesn't believe they will reach all of the Boulder listening area, a community rich in avid jazz enthusiasts. "We'd really like to do what KVOD ( a Denver classical music station) has done and have listener-sponsored sup-. port groups who buy a ·translator that can be aimed at our broadcasting tower . and send a signal back to the listening area (where the translator is located)," McNulty said. He pointed out that the system works very well for KVOD, a station without hea"}' wattage, but with the help of translators reaches Pueblo, and Colorado Springs, Fort Collins and Cheyenne, Wyoming, as well as the Denver metropolitan area. The translators can be purchased for about $5,000 each, and according to FCC rules, would be privately owned and operated by purchasers. "If 5,000 jazz fans from Boulder donated $1 each, they could buy a translator and receive a clear signal in Boulder," McNulty said. "You could do the same thing at Auraria, for that matter, and broadcast jazz to downtown Denver." · But the only catch with· translators is that legally, KRKY cannot initiate action, the public must approach the station and only they can act. It's an idea that shows promise for the fledgling station. From a commercial standpoint, sup-

port for the station appears very strong, and ·seems to be growing all the time. Dick Gibson and Lou Va~on , two prominent Denver jazz promoters who attract some of the best musicians in the country, are enthusiastic supporters of KRKY and are encouraged that Denver radio again has· a stable jazz voice. Local record shops and distributors h ave donated albums to the station's library and have purchased advertising, most of the Denver area's jazz clubs have bought air time, and various merchants from Denver, Castle Rock and Parker are approaching the station for advertising. With this sudden surge of visibility, it wold appear that the Denver jazz scene is a burgeoning phenomenon. But in reality, it has been alive and well for a long time. "Denv~r's always been a good place for jazz," said Dennis Papin, one of KRKY's disc jockeys who used to work with KADX. Papin has been a Denver resident since 1942, and is one of Denver's favorite jazz announcers. "Jazz (in Denver) was just never publicized before," Papin said. "It bas always been bumped aside for a new fad - whether it's disco or something else - but it didn't go nowhere; it's always .been_ here _ "What really helps, though, is that the young people are getting more involved in it. Sooner or later you're gonnna get tired of sittin' around in a bar and say, 'I've had enough of this, I want to see something new and different.' " It seems fitting that in spring, a vital and exciting new sound should emerge from the dormancy of pop radio. Maybe it's just because spring is the time for all new things to grow. 0

Play deals with loss Qf heroes For its thir.9 production of the season, the MSC Players ventures into a contemporary drama, "When You Comin' Back, - ~ Red Ryder?". The Mark Medoff play. opens April 14 and plays Thursdays through Saturdays until April 30.

the title becomes the theme. "The play is a,.lament for those Viet Nam vets who feel dispossessed and disaffected," Bontems said. The melodrama is a searing_ story of violence that exposes the darker side of numan nature. Teddy, the central character, forces people to face these dark motives, but their potential for change develops as the play unfolds.

The drama - a decade old this year - is as pertinent now as it was in its first production at the Circle Repertory ~. Theatre Company in 1973.

·UCD s·h ow diverse, petsorial by Joan McCarthy Different people look at art in different ways. They can be attracted by colo!, by the subject matter., by an experimental process or avant-garde flair. I like art that "- ~out to touch my feelings. If the artist can convey his or her personal feelings through a work, so much the better. Over 150 pieces were submitted for the UCD Student Art Show that is currently on display at Emmanuel Gallery. A four.person jury cut' that ·number roughly in ·half. I am paring it down to ten in order to give you gut-feeling impre5sions of rriy favorites. The UCD show is not just a show of color, technique and diversity of media. It is also a show of feelings. This was discovered during the jurying process, said Ernest Porps, associate professor of fine arts at UCD and the faculty member on the jury. "What came up again and again," Porps said, "was the sense of the work bein g personal, not particula'l'ly demonstrative of technical or stylistic achievement, but of the personal involvement of the artist with.the work." The jurors were a diverse group - an art instructor, an artist, a photographer

and an art historian from the Denver Art Museum. In spite of the diversity, Porps said, there was a great deal of agreement in choosing the works to be hung. !fhe jurors were also allowed passion votes. "Each juror could select one or two to include - something that they really liked and it didn~t matter whether anyone else agreed," Porps said.

Auraria student's work chosen for People's Fair A poster by CCD-A student Denise Thomas was chosen as the official poster of 'this year's 12th annual Capital Hill People's Fair. · Thomas' work was chosen over 67 other entries. Thomas won $150, along with 25 complimentary issues of the poster and five t-shirts, as well as all the beer she can drink at the fair. "It was a lot of work," Thomas said. "But it was worth it, it was a good experience." The posters were displayed at Zach's restaurant from March 6 through the 20th and were required to be framed. The posters were also required to be no bigger than 17" by 22" and had to be printed on white stock. The judging was .done by the Capitol Hill People's Fair committee and a representative of the media. Thomas said her art instructor

originaJly assigned the post~rs but that they were not required to be completed in class. Students were urged to com- ' plete the posters on their own and enter the contest.

Roadrunners lose twice.;to·UNC ·by Tony Patino

The MSC's ·women's softball team dropped a double-header Monday to UNC, 7-2 and 11-10. The team's record dropped to 6-5 for the season. The first game was a very close battle until the eighth inning when UNC increased its 2-1 lead with five runs off MSC pitcher Paige Gilmore.

The second game saw the roadrunners build a 10-2 lead, only.to lose it in the final three innings of play. Head C-oach Theresa Phariss 'was pleased with her teams' performance in the first game, but was disappointed in the second game. "We just handed it to them," Phariss said. Although MSC lost, Phariss felt her team put out a good effort at the plate. "Today was the biggest outburst of offense that we've had all year," Phariss

said. l;eading the team in hitting are sophomore Jan Julius and freshman Annie Mincher. Phariss feels her team's strengths are defense and "The best pitching staff ever at MSC." Leading the staff are pitchers Paige Gilmore and Liz Miret. Phariss and amstant coach Wendy Abbiati feel that the team has a "pretty good shot" at reaching nationals this year in Kearney, Neb., May 13-15. The team is young, with only one senior on the roster, and Phariss feels the

team is just beginning to jell. "It's a matter o~them getting to know each .o ther and getting to know us," Phariss said. She feels the team can have a winning season, and is "looking for a strong finish from the girls." When asked if this was a team of the fu~ure, Phariss said...Yeah. but we're going to make that future this year." The softball team's next game is Friday, when it hosts Colorado School of 0 Mines.

Sports Notes I

by Tammy Williams

Even though the MSC varsity men's and women's outdoor track teams have only been competing for two weeks, they have already established a statewide reputation for breaking seven track records. The squads' first competition of the season was the Colorado College Invitational, held in the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, May 26. In that meet, three MSC runners set four school records. George Frushour set the new 10,000 meter record with a time of 33:29.8; Travis McKinley broke the seven-year-old 200 meter record with a-time of 21.5; and All-American John Liese set two new marks, breaking the 1,500 and 5,000 meter times set last year by MSC's own Char-lee Blueback. This past weekend, the MSC Roadrunners competed in the CSU Invitational. At that meet, McKinley broke the 400-meter school record with a time of 49.36; Liese broke the 1,000 meter record that he had previously set with a time of 15: 13.1 (his time qualifies him to compete in the NAIA Nationals to be held May 26-28 in Charleston, W . Va.); and Therese DelMonico, the first MSC women's outdoor track competitor to set a record this season, broke the women's 100 meter record with a time of 13.10. The team finished fifth out of the seven. teaIQs that competed. The MSC baseball team traveled to Las Vegas, N.M., Friday to compete with New Mexico Highlands baseball team. MSC won two of the thTee games, 7-3 and 5-3, and lost 6-4. The team traveled to Regis Sunday, where it split a double-header, winning the first game 10-6, but losing the second game 6-5. MSC's Roadrunners will host the Denver Tournament April 16 and 17. Then it travels to Pueblo April 20 to play . the University of Southern Colorado at 7 p.m.

The MSC men's vanity tennis team won six of its nine games this weekend in the Mesa College Invitational. The team was led by Mike Lovato Tom Remy, Dwayne Thomas and Ji~ Stevens. o
