Cure-All No. 1360 Brings Us MSCU

by David Colson Reporter, The Metropolitan

â&#x20AC;˘

A bill that proponents say would streamline the higher education system in Colorado by placine: all state schools under the control of only three boards, has been introduced in the legislature. The promised bill from Rep. Paul Schauer would place MSC under the control of the University of Colorado Board of Regents, dissolving the Consortium of State Colleges, and would place DACC under the control of the State Board of Agriculture, dissolving the State Board of Community Colleges. Hearings have not yet been scheduled for the bill, number 1360, which will be considered first by the House Education Committee before moving on to a vote by the House of Representatives. It could be debated as early as Monday, February 13. As the bill currently reads, the Consortium would be dissolved and "Effective July 1, 1985," MSC and Western State College would be under the direct control of the regents. Penciled into the draft is the stipulation that "Any reorganization of the higher education system shall not affect the role and mission of Metro State College." In addition, the regents would assume control over the Auraria Campus and "Effective July 1, 1985, the board of directors of the Auraria Higer Education Center is abolished ... " Students who are interested in attending the hearings or getting more information on the progress of 1360 can call the Bill Information Room at the Capitol at 866-3056. O

A new set of yellow stripes spells trouble for students who park on the southwest side of the Student Center. Since the new paint went on last Thursday, Public Safety officers have been handing out $15 parking tickets like fliers advertising a grand opening. AHEC, in cooperation with the city of Denver, changed the 30-minute parking outside the southwest doors of the Student Center to five-minute parking and has restricted half the area to AHEC service vehicles only. According to Public Safety spokesman Dave Rivera, the change became official last Monday. By Thursday the diagonal lines of yellow paint were dry, the signs were up and Public Safety Officers were ticketing, ticketing, ticketing. "The city made the change upon our recommendation of how we saw the use of the space," Rivera said. "The 30-minute parking was commonly abused and vehicles would be parked there all day long," Rivera said. Rivera said there was often no space avl!ilable for handicap loading and unloading, that service vehicles could not get access to the building, and that student use of the area had caused general traffic congestion. "Over the past few weeks it became a general parking place," said Jim Schoemer, deputy executive of AHEC. "The reason we changed it from 30 to five minute parking is because when the SFPC (Student Facility Policy Counsel) approved the contract to install the (TransAction) minibank we agreed to provide fiveminute parking. We just never got around to it," Schoemer said. "What we are doing at present is a clean-up of the bank installation because we let it get away from us," Schoemer said. "The space was never intended for long-term parking. It's a general entrance and it was being abused." Ken Cole, UCO student body president, agrees that the area had become "a mess." Cole agreed that there should be space set aside for handicap ,loading and unloading and for mini bank use. However, Cole added, ''I'd like to know why half the space is for AHEC service vehicles only. They (AHEC) seem to have gotten along fine parking in the loading dock." "It seems that we accommodate everyone else before we do the students. I think students should get to use that area," Cole said. O

STJrlng Fever May Be by James Tabor Reporter. The Metropolitan

In response to a national campus alert, the MSC Health Center has initiated a · Measles and Rubella awareness program at Auraria. Measles and Rubella on the nation's campuses has tripled in the last three years; during the first three months of 1983, college students accounted for 52.6 percent of all reported measle cases in the country. "We feel that the dissemination of information is the most realistic approach at this time," said B.J. Collard, MSC Student Health Director. "We especially want to warn any pregnant women of the serious complications these diseases can create to their babies." Health officials estimate that up to 20 percent of the college students

(between 16 and 26) may be susceptible to one or both diseases. "Many of the measles outbreaks on college campuses seem to occur during the spring semester," said Jerene Anderson, MSC Nurse Health Educator." All child-bearing age women should come into the clinic for a blood test if they have any questions about their immunization. A person could have rubella without ever realizing it." Anderson further explained that, according to the Journal of American College Health, high susceptibility of students is related to a number of factors: •Children growing up in the 60's may have missed their vaccinations. • Students may not have been immunized under the comprehensive school requirements no in effect for most states. · • Most colleges and universities

The October, 1983, Sears Newsletter contained this bit of comic relief: A customer writes... A computer foul up on a name and address verification card caused a customer's name to appear as 159 FEOOHBCIEIWTPE. The card stated--"Is this your complete and correct name and mailing address? IF NOT please make any changes that are necessary and mail this card to us today." So the customer did, along with this reply to Sears:

The CIA-Grenada Connection by Scott Mohr

Grenada during the first year of the revolution-events which later led to the coup and invasion, according to Ray. "Destabilization didn't work, so Reagan determined that an invasion was necessary," she said. "But the CIA knew that the U.S. couldn't invade with Bishop in power, so they created dissension between Bishop and Deputy Prime Minister Bernard Coard. It was a mistake to put Bishop under house arrest. It's unclear who killed Bishop, but the ensuing chaos created just the situation that would justify a U.S. invasion under the pretext of protecting Americans," she said. "The lessons go far beyond Grenada," Ray added. An IOAR pamphlet states that "the U.S. government tries to justify its interventionist policies on the pretext of 'curbing Soviet influence,' where in realitv these are local movements with deep historical roots." Agee states in the film that the CIA has had very few successes. "The CIA creates a lot of damage and causes a lot of injury in their efforts to hold back history,'' Agee said. D

Special to The Metropolitan

"The CIA created dissension between Grenada's leaders because it knew that the U.S. could not invade the island while it was still unified under . the popular leadership of Maurice Bishop," filmmaker Ellen Ray told an audience on the Auraria campus Saturday night. Ray's 1980 documentary "Grenada-Nobody's Backyard" was the focal point of a presentation by the International Organization Against Repression (IOAR). Ray and Bill Schapp are co-editors of the Covert Action Information Bulletin, an international magazine that documents anti-democratic U.S. actions. Having just returned from Nicaragua, both were present to discuss what government is doing in Central America and the Caribbean. The film, which included interviews with Bishop, Worker's Party of Jamaica leader, Trevor Munroe and former CIA agent Philip Agee, gives a historical perspective of U.S. destabilization efforts against

Spea er Says 'Nationalism' An Integral Part of Judaism For Joe Zalkind, the biggest obstacle to a solution of the Israeli-Palestinian is a lack of communication. Zalkind is the first speaker in the Auraria Interfaith Ministry's Religions of the Mideast forum. In the past .Year, Zalkind, a co-founder of Sikah, a dialogue group within th~ local Je.w~sh comr:riunity, has been active in a monthly discussion group with Paleshruans, trymg to hash out some of the current differences between them. "I never before realized the concerns of Palestinians or their concept of Judaism" he said. "Palestinians don't realize being Jewish is more than religion-there is a nationalistic aspect of being Jewish." At the same time, he said, Jews fail fo realize the concerns of Palestinians. "I didn't recognize the number of Palestinians wanting to return to their homes in Israel proper, not just the West Bank but to their original homes" Zalkind said. ' This feeling among Palestinians complicates any possible resolution he said, because in most cases, Israelis are living in these places and no reasonable compensation to them has been suggested. "There needs to he an effort to sit down and listen to each other " Zalkind said. "In our original (local) dialogues, we had to force ourselves to listen to each other's views without making judgments. There is a failure on both sides to come to grips with the aspirations of our enemies." ~nd the two sides are enemies even in America, he said, which is why it is so important for them to sit down and talk to each other. Zalkind believes very strongly that there must be a Jewish state. He holds a~ equally ~trong conviction that a Palestinian state is necessary, but, he said, removing the Jews from Israel is not the answer. "We have to start with the current reality and work forward " he said "which.~ that there is a Jewish state right now and we aren't goi'ng to pick up 3 million Jews and move them to Mozambique. The Jewish state is where it is and (I think) it should stay there." Solving the Israeli-Palestinian problem is important, Zalkind said but the Mideast is a cauldron of conflicts and questions. ' "We shouldn't be too optimistic that solving one problem will solve others," he said. "The problems in the Mideast will be with us for a long time." D ~onflict

Reagan; The Right Gone Wrong by Keith Levise

-the giving away of surplus butter and cheese (but no bread) while expressing disbelief that any good hard-working American would need it or accept it.

Four years ago, Ronald Reagan promised America some hard answers for some hard questions. Four years later, he apparently doesn't understand what the hard questions are, or worse, he simply refuses to address them. His hard answer is nothing more than a hard-line. Nevertheless, much has been said about the "magic" of Ronald Reagan. He is thought to be a charming, charismatic fellow. For the record; much could be said about the magic of vipers and witch doctors --also charming and charismatic. · The President recently announced he intends to administer a second dose of "heavy" medicine. Some have found reason to rejoice at this news; others, to grieve. When asked what the principle factors in his decision to run for reelection might be, Reagan said, "I think I've heard some encouragement from the people. But it would be the desire to finish what I think is well started. The economic recovery-to get this country back into a growth pattern ... and I think we have made a good start on that." A good start, Indeedl Hopefully, his desire to finish what he thinks is well started-an ill-defined and mysterious " growth"pattern-does not apply to the following (abridged) list of administration offenses including: -across the board cuts in the growth of funding for the health, education, and welfare of the American people. -opposition to an equal rights amendment to the Constitution. -an adamant refusal to negotiate arms reductions while simultaneously conducting the biggest military buildup in the history of the world. -an assertion that the arms race doesn't exist, because "the Soviets are the only ones running." -an ongoing (and rude) suggestion that true patriots aren't involved in the peace movement.

-the squandering of $320,000 to conclude that it is "at present impossible to estimate the extent of hunger with any reasonable degree of objectivity."

-a reference to the bombing run over Syrian territory as a "mission of peace." -a reference to the invasion of Grenada as an act of "compassion."

-a suggestion that people sleep in the gutter because they want to. -a proposal that tax-exempt status be extended to schools and colleges which practice segregation. -the transformation of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights into an extension of the White House "political apparatus," as evidenced by proposals to cancel ongoing or completed discrimination studies. - the actual cancellation of a study in progress on how cuts in higher educational financial aid hurt minority students, and a report in progress on opportunities for women and minorities in high tech industries. To add insult to injury, a high level Justice Department official~ with typical administration coldness, recently suggested that women with lowpaying jobs aren't necessarily victims of illegal discrimination. The fellow suggested that it simply may not occur to women that they should seek higher paying positions. (Dami I could've had a V-81) The Reagan Administration has long been battling the concept of equal pay for equal work. With the appointment of Ed "the club" Meese to the office of Attorney General, we may soon be experiencing a full scale assault on our basic civil rights. "Congress," says Rep. Pat Schroeder, "has mandated the Justice Department to be in the forefront of enforcing anti-discrimination laws. Its retrenchment from enforcement, indeed, its intervention in support of the discriminator, sends an unmistakable signal to women that their government views them as the enemy." · What is painfully apparent in 1984, is that Reagan lives in a deadly fantasy,. he has many enemies, he is definitely on the warpath, and we had better organize a common defense before he runs us into the ground.

Trustees Support Auraria 'As Is'

Editor: The Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges in Colorado, after careful and complete review of the history of the Auraria Higher Education Center and the 1983 Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study, issues the following resolution: WHEREAS the Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study found that "each institution has maintained its distinctly different role and mission;" WHEREAS the Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study found that the "State's General Fund also benefits from cross-registration by paying less in tuition subsidies," WHEREAS the Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study found that "available classroom space on the Auraria campus is used more efficiently than at other Colorado higher education institutions," and "the institutions are using building space more efficiently than are other institutions in the state;" WHEREAS the Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study found that "reports by the North Central Association which accredits colleges and universities have been positive regarding the academic programs at the institutions" ; WHEREAS the Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study found that "the three institutions' different admission standards, emphases and approaches offer students a diverse number of subjects and courses of study · from which to choose;" WHEREAS the thre'e institutions have entered into a memorandum of agreement thereby developing an administrative process for resolution of Auraria library concerns;

WHEREAS the Regents of the University of Colorado, in responding to the Auraria Higher Education Special Study, agreed to support crossregistration of courses even though the UCD faculty voted to withdraw from cross-registration; WHEREAS the Regents of the University of Colorado, in responding to the Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study, agreed to remove the UCO restrictive transfer requirements on Metropolitan State College students and INASMUCH as the Long Bill Footnotes, as pointed out by members of the Legislative Audit Committee, do not demonstrate that the legislature manages the Auraria Higher Education Center any more than any other entity of state government, there being only 8 footnotes in the seven year history of Auraria; and INASMUCH as there were no Long Bill Footnotes relative to the Auraria Higher Education Center in 1982 and only one in 1983; and INASMUCH as the Auraria Higher Education Center Study concludes "that any changes to the governance structure at Auraria should take into consideration the need to continue providing diverse educational opportunities offered by the three institutions," THEREFORE be it resolved that the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges in Colorado on behalf of its students, faculty and the residents of Colorado whom they serve, urge the Colorado General Assembly to publicly state its support for the continuation of the Auraria concept of three distinct institutions for the aforementioned reasons documented in the 1983 Auraria Higher Education Center Special Study.

(ic:>\e11nuent l{eJ )()rt One week down-only fourteen to go ... or is it fifteen? Who's counting anyway? It became quite obvious to us while working walk-in registration that many students don' t even know the order of the alphabet let alone how to count to fifteen . Despite all the complaints that were heard from people going through the process, those who read the signs and followed directions sailed right through. The students who yelled the loudest were the ones that couldn't follow simple directions; they were the ones who rocked the boat for all aboard. After talking with students who were proceeding through the registration line, the majority of them felt that this was the fastest and most efficient walk-in registration in which they had ever participated. During the two weeks in which we worked, we found the administrators and staff to be extremely student-oriented. They went out of their way to solve problems, give advice, and, in general, tried to help the students anyway they could. We also found that some of the students that came dpwn to register had some very interesting-if n,ot ridiculous quandaries. Here is a sm.aH sample of some of the asanine questions: 'Tm a UCD student, what do you mean I can't register for classes at Metro?" (We understand that Metropolitan State College offers a wide range of quality classes; therefore, to be assured of benefiting, why don't you just transfer to our school?) "Can you tell me where the second floor is located?" (We have heard of some building's not listing the thirteenth floor., but the second floor is directly above the first- isn't it.)

What more can we say?; Dr. Rodriguez; instead of a green ribbon, you deserve a gold star!; Dr. Curtis- the Ray Kroc (founder of McDonalds) of registrars. To Sadie, Karen, Francis, Elaine, and Roxy-we've seen you from the outside, we've worked with you on the inside, and we will never forget all the kind help and advice you gave us over the last two weeks. To close the report for this week, I would just like to say that while it may nof seem lilee something student government should be reporting on, we felt that to cover something that all students take part in is very much our job. We can now direct students to people we know and that know us. If you have any problem with what is written come by and we can talk about it, you're probably wrong. P.S.--Mail In Registration was extended another day to help all the students that could not make it down because of all the snow. Better Alonzo. Thank you,

AURARIA BOOK CENTER 955 Lowrmce Street

Dmver, Co. 80204 (JOJ)629-3230

Last semester The Metropolitan ran a series under this title, looking brief· ly at the past, present, and future of the Auraria Campus. Issues that were raised in that series, concerning academic independance, growth, the cost of education, and administrative efficiency have now come into the limelight of public debate. It would seem that, one way or another, the campus is destined for change. But that comes as no surprise. The only certainty in Auraria's sevenyear history has been change. Even befwe Auraria was nothing more than a gleam ia an architect's eye, • the question of what kind of campus it should be and who it should serve has raged among The Powers That Be. Throughout it all, one thing is painfully apparent: Virtually no one gives a damn what the students think. As students, we have been universally regarded as seething protoplasm at the bottom of a rather curious experiment. Whenever issues come up over what is good and what is bad about the equcational facilities at Auraria, the students are treated as if they were deaf, blind and dumb: Unable to understand their own needs; unable to articulate their own concerns. Such an attitude directed toward students at a traditional liberal arts college would be contemptible. But when it is directed toward student bodies that are more mature, harder working, more directed and goal-oriented than at tradition~! schools, it is beneath contempt.

Yet, we as students may be indirectly responsible for the elitist attitudes of administrators and bureaucrats. Because we are so busy with work and family, because we are so certain of our goals, there is less noise, less involvement from the students here than at a more traditional campus. That is frequently, and wrongly, interpreted as apathy toward the quality of education that we receive. Even with relatively low tuition rates and financial aid packages, most of us pay a dear price for our educations. The price of our own free time to pursue matters other than work and ::::!hool may be the most dear of all. There is precious little time for social and political involvement on campus. Still, most of us are very proud of the quality of education that we have received here. Most of us recognize the need for improvements, And most of us recognize, at least intuitively, that nobody gives a damn what the students think. But there is no reason for that to be true. Unlike many traditional college campuses, the majority of us are local, taxpaying citizens, to whom the legislature and the administrators are responsible . In the past, the Powers That Be have listened to us infrequently, and then only out of a sense of decorum or politeness. But there is no need to be polite. Say what is on your mind. Shove it down their throats.

STYLE The Grinch's Guide to Gastronomical Gratification

Th~e two places differ drastically from each other in terms of personality-and food. El Torito is the casual "family-type" restaurant, with food. that can be ~t described as "Amerimex." El Torito has a nice, quiet ambiance where, if you choose, you can actually converse with someone whilst you go for the eats, and hear every word they say. The buffet food at El Torito is rather tasty. This is a "we serve you" foodbar, but the portions are generous. Savory enchiladas, mini-chimichangas, and nachos are heaped onto a ceramic plate, then covered with salsa, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. Service is always with a smile, and the margaritas are top-notch. If you go back to the buffet every 20 minutes or so, you will get a different item. The food server didn't even so much as balk when I came back five times. You can help yourself to their generous freshfruit plate, all with a smile from the server. Drink service was impeccable, although I was rather shocked (to say the least) with a bartender's vapid repertoire of hammer-murder jokes. I wanted to bludgeon him with my bottle, but chose instead to conserve my energy for the site across the street.

"Imagine biting into a piece of orange-colored cheese and tasting nothing. Even the much-maligned Velveeta has some taste to it... "

by Grinch Food critic at large. The Metropolitan

Hampden Avenue in southeast Denver is rapidly gaining a reputation as the place to head to, if you care to take advantage of free happy-hour food. The fact of the matter is: there are so many buffets along Hampden Avenue, from I-25 east to John F. Kennedy Golf Course, that they should re-name the entire street "Buffet Boulevard ." I can visualize it now, on 1-25 southbound near Yale Avenue: "Buffet Boulevard, exits V2 mile." Or, Advantage Avenue, through Complimentary City. At last count, there are six free buffets, and one that costs money. However, for reasons of space, I will limit this review to two buffets-ri_ght across from each other in the 7300 block of East Buffet Boulevard--El Torito and The Proof Of The Pudding.

Crossing Buffet Boulevard very carefully, I found myself being scrutinized by a husky, polyester-clad doorman at The Proof Of The Pudding. The Proof is aloof. As I topped the stairway, I was assaulted by 40's music, business suits, ferns, a lot of stained glass, and a loud crowd. This is the home of Denver's largest --and most pretentious-- free buffet. Unfortunately, size alone doesn't cut it. As a matter or procedure, The Proof Of The Pudding should iss_ue every customer one of those one-piece salt-and-pepper shakers at the door. This is some of the most insipid food I've ever tasted, free or not. Imagine biting into a piece of orange-colored cheese and tasting nothing. Even the much-maligned Velveeta has some taste to it. Or, dull lasagne that tastes like two pieces of balsa wood with styrofoam in the middle. And, horror of horrors, a taco-bar with NO hot sauce?? That, by itself, is culinary sacrilege. Beers and mixed drinks are cheap, though. Between the two, my choice is El Torito - simply because the food tastes a lot better. You see, size isn't everything; It's how the product tastes. Am·biance has a lot to do with it too. O Buffet Boulevard, you haven't seen the last of me ... I shall return.

A Lesson in Loneliness

by Karen Ziebell Reporter, The M etropolitan

The Lonely Guy, Steve Martin's new comedy, is a surprisingly good movie dealing with a real problem. Martin turns out a believable performance as Larry Hubbard, the ultimate of lonely guys. Hubbard loses his dancergirlfriend , played by Robyn Douglass, to a never-ending stream of men. As a result, he becomes a lonely guy, unable to establish even a cursory relationship with a woman. So, Hubbard looks to Boston ferns and dogs as his only companions. He talks to his pillow as if it were hi._ fantasy girl-whose · phone number and name he can't remember. Yet, somehow, his feelings are normal and one has empathy for Larry, his pillow, and his problem. Co-star Charles Grodin, wonderful as experienced lonely guy Warren Evans, downplays his character

almost too much. A great deal of talent is nearly wasted as director Arthur Hiller put the kibosh on a thoroughly likeable guy. Evans and Hubbard become foils for Jack Fenwick, played by singer Steve Lawrence. Definitely not a lonely guy, Fenwick is constantly surrounded by seven beautiful women known as the seven deadly sins. He is just the kind of macho man we could live without-and very easily, too. Hubbard's fantasy girl Iris is pleasantly played by Judith Ivey. The relationship between Ivey and Martin has its moments of reality as well as bordering on the absurd, but it works. These two comedians are well-matched. In order to cope, Hubbard writes a book on lonely guys and becomes an overnight best-selling author. But is he happy? Go enjoy this movie. Laugh at some of the schtick and be touched at the same time. It's a guarantee you'll find yourself in there somewhere. 0

LECTURE SERIES

• Groe to Perform in MSC Production

'Reckless' Redeeilled By Undertones of Rock by D.J. Owens Reporter, The Metropolitan

;

Reckless is celluloid rock and roll. The themes, the textures, and even the ending all point to shaking off death and moving on. The story takes place in a dying steel town somewhere south of Cleveland. Johnny Rourke (Aidan Quinn) has to ramble on. Which leaves the only unanswered question: Will he be able to steal away the antagonist's girlfriend and take her with him? Rourke also reads in his school file that he is anti-social and "potentially dangerous." He tries hard to live up to that potential. The acting is not convincing, but the combination of popular music and creative cinematography drives the message home and makes the movie intelligible. The imagery of a dying town is presented up front. Smokestacks billowing dirt into the air, gray factories shooting up from a black earth tell the audience exactly why Rourke is restless; more than his acting ever could. Fiery red scenes foreshadow passion and rage, both abundant in Reckless. The love-making scenes are tastefully presented, and, with the exception of the dance scene, stand out above the rest. In the dance scene, the contrast between bad guy Randy Daniels (Peter Baldwin) and Rourke stings like a bee. Daniels is barely moving while his girlfriend Tracy Prescott (Daryl Hannah) and Rourke are twistin' and turnin' and havin' the time of their lives. Career day at the high school is in the film to shed more light on the situation. These seniors can either

join the service, become.steelworkers, or just leave town. Our hero knows what he's going to do.

Campus Recreation: An Introduction . Jocks, geriatrics and klutzes, take note: the Campus Recreation Program has something for all of you. From noonday drop-in aerobics to late-night weight training and furious intramural competition, Campus Recreation provides opportunities for Auraria students, faculty and staff to participate in sport at a level compatible with their interests and physical abilities.

"We prescribe to the 99 percent theory," explains Campus Recreation

Director Dick Feuerborn. "Of the general population, only one percent are athletes. So we design our programs around the 99 percent; that way every·individual can participate, regardless of ability." Intramural leagues, for example,

usually have both "competitive" and "fun" divisions. Racquetball courts are open on a non-league basis. And for those who prefer non-competitive sport, a weight room, dance studio, three gyms and an Olympic-size swimming pool are open at various hours seven days it week. Feuerborn says a visit to the PE building is also good for the soul.

morale may seem to be dragging a little, the women continue to work hard to improve their performance and continue women's basketball at MSC. 'Tm a little discouraged because it doesn't appear that we've been successful as far as wins and losses go," says coach Betty Krueger. "But we have made some great strides in bringing the program back. All the credit g_oes to the kids, the hard work they've done and the dedication they show."

many games during winter break, but she also implemented a shorter season to allow some women from the volleyball team to play basketball. With the addition of men's basketball coach, Bob Ligouri, to the MSC athletic department, some exciting changes are in store for the women as well. When he coached at Grand View College in Iowa, Ligouri had the men and women train and travel together and play their games back to back; he found the arrangment a morale booster which encouraged both teams to play better. Krueger and Ligouri are already working on plans for next season, including a stepped-up recruiting effort. Both feel that, with the escalating cost of higher education and a more vigorous program, more quality high school athletes will be looking to play at Metro. D

CC, away, TBA When Coach Bob Ligouri arrived at Metropolitan State College February 1st to revive men's varsity basketball for the 1984-85 season after a six-year absence, he came with a promise: opponents on the Roadrunners' 25-game schedule are going to see Metro in their faces. "We will be playing pressure basketball," Ligouri said during an interview Friday. " We are going to play the entire length of the floor for 40 minutes. We will eliminate all resting periods for our opponents." Pressure basketball means a quickhitting offense and a full court pressure defense, a brand of play Ligouri says that fans like "but one that takes a special player who is mentally tough, who can push himself when he's tired. "For pressure basketball you've got to be in better condition, and you have to believe you're better because you're going head-to-head the entire game." Ligouri has won with pressure basketball since taking over in 1980 as head coach at Grand View College, in Des Moines, Iowa. His teams made post-season· NAIA district· play each year, ranked 9th nationally one year, and featured athletes with the mental toughness his system requires. Ligouri's intensity is readily apparent, but he lacks the false posturing of many coaches. Where some ' preach defeat is worse than death, Ligouri says, "My players graduate." Ninety-five percent at Grand View did. Ligouri arrived on campus in December to introduce himself after being selected from among 72 coaches. He found himself courted by a long line of pessimistic wellwishers. All said MSC would never support a team, nor be able to attract talent.

Ligouri would like to bring in four junior college transfers to supplement the metro Denver talent he hopes to build his team around.• "If we don't have to start all freshmen, I think we can compete with DU and Regis the first year." DU is currently ranked in the NAIA top 20. "When I came out and saw the campus, I knew basketball could be a success at Metro,' Ligouri said. "I tell the players we recruit that we have a campus with new buildings. The vitality of a metropolitan city. The solitude and beauty of the Rocky Mountains." 0

DEEffOURS Before you know it, Spring break will be upon us, and with it the winds of March and the excitement of watching the snow melt. Should you crave a bit of tropical paradise, there is a special charter flight that you can ride (along with the MSC baseball team) to Tampa, then onto Miami for a drive to some exotic places at points south. A favorite destination for winterweary students is Key West, a place for total relaxation, where books and ex'am worrying can wait. The MetroPride charter will take you as far as Miami ($275 roundtrip), where you can drive or fly the 157 miles to the very end of the road. You have to be careful on your first visit to Key West. It has a strange and magical way of getting a hold on you. The weather is warm and liquid and discourages any unecessary hurrying. Perched at land's end, there is a sense of freedom and detachment. Add in soft, romantic nights that last until morning, the tropical flora and the ramshackle fishing village architecture, and you begin to understand the attraction of Key West. The MetroPride charter departs on March 18 and returns on the 25. For those who crave a little more action than laid-back Key West, the trip will also get you to Ft. Lauderdale, ala :!: the grand college tradition of going ~"where the boys are."

Hiring college grads is something the Army has always done. And lately, we've been doing a lot more of it. In fact, last year alone nearly 7.000 college grads chose to begin their future as Army officers. . Why? Some wanted the opportunity to develop valuable leadership and management skills early in their career. Others were impressed with the amount of responsibility we give our officers starting out. And still more liked the idea of serving their country around the world. Interested? Then you can start preparing for the job right now. with Army ROTC. ROTC is a college proQTam that trains you to become an Army officer. By helping you develop your leadership and manage:. ment ability. Enrolling can benefit your immediate future, too.
