The Politics of Beer

~FPC

Vetos Killian's Sale

Khadaji Wages War On

Studen~

by Kevin Vaughan _ News Editor, The Metropolitan

The Student Facilities Policy Council last Wednesday went against the recommenation of the Food Commit. tee and voted down the sale of George Killian's Red in the Student Center. The decision came just a week after 4 the SFPC Food Committee gave tentative approval for Killian's to be served in The Mission beginning next fall. The committee made the recommendation after looking at the results of ... a student preference beer survey conducted by the DACC Marketing Club. The survey, which was commissioned by the SFPC in April, 11)83, found that Coors products were popular among Auraria students. At last Wednesday's meeting, Killian's was banned from the Student Center in a vote of 4 to 3. Only seven of the SFPC's 12 membes were p1esPnt. S.FPC member Brendan Kelly said that politics palyed a big part in the decision not to allow Killian's at The - Mission. "People were tying it .to the political aspects of allowing Coors on campus," Kelly said. "Instead, we should have looked at what the stu~ dent's beer preferences are." ,_

"People were voting on principle.,, Tammy Williams Tammy Williams, who made the motion to keep Killian's out of The Mission, said that votes were cast based on the member's personal con· victions about Coors. "People were voting on principle," Williams said. "Brendan Kelly was pro-Coors because of the company's support of the rugby team, and I was against Coors because of what he (William Coors} said about blacks." Coors was first banned from the Student Center in 1980, but that ban was technically lifted last April when ~ the SFPC voted to commission the survey. The survey, which polled the dra.:.t, canned and bottled beer prderences of 2230 Auraria students, found at least one Coors product in the top five of each category. • But despite this popularity, Coors will not be available in the Student Center next fall. Williams said she would continue to fight to keep Coors out of the student funded Student Center. "I think as long as Coors is pro- moting racism and trying to keep minorities down," Williams said, .<:

T e government of Libya is engaged in a war-with many of its own students, in Libya and around the world. The war, which started with the student protests over government involvement on campus in 1976, has escalated into a worldwide network of proKhadafi students who reportedly keep close tabs on fellow Libyan students for the government. Among Libyan students dissatisfied with the current leadership in Libya, there is widespread paranoia concerning the far-reaching ability of the Khadafi government to identify and punish the "stray dogs" of the regime . For some students.on campus, the fear is as simple and practical as a loss of Libyan student aid. For other, more politically active students, fears range from harrassment of their families all the way to assassination. The people . they fear most are their fellow Libyan students.

Where

On the Auraria campus alone there are at least 30 Libyan students, and among them there is a broad diversity in political opinion. Most will insist that they are primarily here to study, and are unwilling to take sides with either the pro-or anti-Khadafi groups in Denver. But recent events in Libya-including the hanging of two students at the University of Tripoli-are changing some of the student's minds. "Students are mad, but they won't do anything," said Mohamed (not his real name} "They are afraid to get involved." For Mohamed, the hangings dramatically altered his feelings of apathy, if not his feelings of helplessness. One of the students who was hanged was a childhood friend . "I was afraid before," he said, "but now I feel like cont. on page 14 I have to do something."

KRMF One Step Closer by Nonna Restivo The Metropolljan

If Auaria students are willing to pay an extra dollar in student fees each semester, a new organization called the Radio Committee could initiate a fully operational, student accessible radio station on campus by the fall of 1985, according to Radio Committee Chairman Ben Boltz. The committee, consisting of about 18 students from MSC, UCD and DACC, has been meeting weekly to

the radio station. The committee is presently drawing up an application for an operating license to the FCC. It must include the format, engineering, legal, financial and employment aspects of the proposed station, which . h~ been given the call letters KRMF, in remebrance of MSC's late President Richard M. Fontera. Boltz stressed that a radio station will not only provide valuable experience and educational OP.portunities for students, but will enhance their involvement on campus and create internships.

"This is a student-initkited idea to help students. We'll cater to student tqstes . . . " -Ben Boltz -discuss and plan the progress of the station. Because funding for the radio project is so crucial, . the committee is now circulating a petition to gather support for the increase in student fees. So far, said Boltz, response has been favorable. The committee is seeking signatures from at least 10 percent of the MSC student body, the amount required for a referendum. UCD and DACC are also in the process of initiating a referendum on

"This is a student-initiated idea to help students. We'll cater to student tastes, which are pretty diverse. Anything from Middle Eastern music through American and European sounds will be programmed." KRMF would broadcast as a public station at 89.0 FM. Its format will also include news {both local and wire service) weather and sports. The Radio Committee needs about $30,000 to buy the neces.5ary equipment and transmitting apparatus for

broadcasting. Boltz has approached various high schools and radio stations for new and used equipment. The committee, working closely with engineering students, has designed space for the project down to the fine acoustic details. They hope to broadcast from one of the wings of the Student Center, pending approval by the S~C. Space for the radio station was included in the

Student Center expansion proposal, to be voted on May 14th, 15th and 16th. . Boltz said the station would provide over 40 students with educational and employment opportunities, in addition to the benefit to all student listeners. For further information, contact Ben Boltz at 629-2797. 0

"then Coors should not be served at The Mission. I don't think we should allow them to come in here and make a profit." Coors products are presently available at The Mercantile, but Killian's is not served there. In addition to voting not to allow Killian's in

The Mission, the SFPC did recommend that it be offered by The Mercantile. According to Joyce Parks, director of Student Activities for DACC and SFPC member, since Coors was available at The Mercantile it "did not seem to be a wise decision to duplicate beers unnecessarily." 0

Lecture Series Coordinator Jackie Weigand is receiving the Special Service Award from Student Affairs. Selection was based on "college and community service,. honors and awards received, GPA, as well as other outstanding achievements." As Vice President of Student Affairs Roberta Smilnak put it, she ahs "overcome incredible odds to- make the Lecture Series." The Lecture Series program was one of the Student Activities areas turned over last fall-for the first time- to student coordinators. Each of those positions came without any clear guidelines for how the job should be done. Jackie, who prt:>bably thought she was going to go crazy during those first few weeks, managed to put together a solid and eclectic program of speakers that drew audiences both from the campus and the community. It is fitting that the grand finale of the Lecture Series would be Carlos Fuentes, a major literary figure that brings credit to our campus with his visit. Thank you, Jackie, from all of us. 0

Carlos Fuentes in an interview prior to his speech. History, myth, religion, cultural identity. Carlos Fuentes, one of the most acclaimed and respected writers in the world, was lecturing on Mexican culture to a packed crowd on the upper level of the Auraria Student Center. I wondered if his subject matter, his historical and mythological allusions, might be a bit esoteric for his listeners. I looked around. Beheld rapt attention. No one was drifting away. The speaker's delivery was rapid, his enunciation distinct, his appearance patrician. He spoke with the lyric voice of Mexican culture, a blend of myth, history and reality.

"Mexico, aJter aII, is instant Fellini." "The Cods of the Aztecs had looked into the mirror and at last discooercd theh identities.

to Cortes and La Malinche. He uas the first

mestizo."

"The Neto World uas inoented bg Europe out oJ the need Jor a utopia." "The soliliets oJ Erniliano Zapata broke into the old marcions and at Last sau thernseloes in full-l.eneth mirtorc."

A Blend of Myth and Reality

was du,ing the Chdstmas b'eak when we ffrst •eceived wmd Carlos Fuentes had accepted our invitation. The acceptance set off Hurries of work. Invitations and posters to be designed and printed. Media contacts to be made. On-campus activities to be planned. A colloquium to be presented. Finally, on Wednesday, May 2, Professor Olivia Carter and I traveled to Greeley to meet Fuentes and finalize plans for Friday. We entered a spacious auditorium-the kind that does not exist at Auraria. To our surprise, few were present to hear Mr. Fuentes ·speak on "How I Became a Writer." The great man appeared. Tall, military posture, brown hair distinguished by grey, sport coat and trousers of European cut, a patrician profile and a rakish mustache, an aura of authority. Star quality. He mounted the stage. His presentation was brilliant, witty, personal. Obviously annoyed by the bright lights shining straight into his face, reflecting off his glasses (the speech was being videotaped) .. This will not happen at Auraria, we vowed. It didn't. Afterward, we made his acquaintance. Found him to be not only pleasant, but a man of enormous charm. He was scheduled to deliver a second lecture that night in Greeley (this time on U.S.-Latin American relations), and the next night another in Fort Collins, where we were instructed to pick him up on Friday morning. Professor Carter had heard that Fuentes is a stickler for punctuality. So we drove in Fort Collins' University Motor Inn at 9:30 sharp that morning, the sun ablaze in glory-an auspicious augury. Fuentes was just as cordial, just as personable, as he had been on Wednesday. He requested to ride in the back seat, and frqm there asked questions and dispensed a treasury of wispom-both on and off the record. During the hourand-a-half drive Fuentes showed a marked interest in Denver, our college,

"The U.S. must allow Latin America to solve its own problems. " our campus. "Tell me about your new mayor," he said. "When was your city founded?" "What kind of student body do you ha\'e?" He appreciatively noted the phalanx of the Rockies to our right. Told us his children are great skiers. He confesses he is not. So pleasant, so talkative was he that we were surprised to learn he was suffering from an intense headache, caused by more glaring lights the night before. Olivia offered him some German aspirin she had purchased in Mexico. That most international of novelists appreciated the international touch. He spoke of politics: "Gary Hart is certainly intelligent. He came off quite well on the 'debate the other night." He was . pleased to learn that Pat Schroeder, who was flying in from ·Washington, would appear at his reception. "She is most impressive." He was quite candid about the blunders of Reagan and Company in Latin America. "That guy stinks," he said. He spoke of literature: "Frankly, Cheever and Updike bore me to death. They are so limited. What is needed is the world view, as in the work that Gunther Grass and Milan Kundera are doing." He spoke of opera: "What the opera is to music, the novel is to literature. The wide sweep, the combination of so many forms." He. knows four operas_ by heart. Talked about Baccaloni, Pinza, Pons. "I saw Callas in La Traviata in Mexico City in 1950. The way she delivered those last lines was unforgettable. It was the ·voice of an old woman. I don't know how she did it. It became the basis, the inspiration, for my novel Aura." We reached Northglenn around 11 a.m. Fuentes requested to see a bit of old Denver before we took him to campus. We drove around Curtis Park, Capitol Hill. He took in everything, commented on the architecture- the diversity, the contrasts. Finally, we headed down Speer to Auraria; parked in front of St. Elizabeth's, and regaled him with a grand tour of the Central Classroom Building. He went over_his speech in the privacy of Dean Boxer's office before making his entrance at the special luncheon in his honor. There, he told the group: "As I entered your city, and drove around it, I became aware of the immense diversity within it. As I walked through the halls of your c:ollege, I noticed on the bulletin boards the great diversity of your programs. It is significant that your college is in the heart of Denver. It so richly symbolize;: the diversity of your city. Denver now has a face for me. It is your .faces. We wandered in the mild afternoon sunshine to the reception in the Student Center, where Fuentes chatted with his public, autographed books, and gave brief interviews to newsmen and scholars. He also c9nversed for several minutes with Pat Schroeder. By 3 p .m ., the lecture room was full to overcrowding-; The culmination of the day, his lecture, Permanencia: The Character of Mexican Culture, was about to begin. ust minutes before, because he had been getting so much pressure to speak on U.S. -Latin American relations, he had toyed with the idea of changing his topic.) The crowd was hushed, expectant. The lesson of the master commenced. In an hour's time he deftly traced the history of Mexico from the dawn of its myths to its present predicament. He wove an

intricate tapestry of exotic references, l.!istoric names-Quetzalcoatl, Tenochtitlan, conquistadores, the baroque, Benito Juarez-and tied them masterfully together. Fu,entes ended his talk on a contemporary note. "The U.S. must allow Latin America to solve its own problems. Most Latin Americans regard the .)oviet Union as remote, but the threat of North American aggression is very near. Remember, Anastazio Somoza was not put in power by Joseph Stalin." Fuentes was accorded an enthus(astic standing ovation. But we were asked to take our seats again so that Mayor Pena, who had arrived a few minutes earlier, could congratulate the noted-.. writer and declare May 4 Carlos Fuentes Day. Fuentes, obviously touched, concluded succinctly, "Viva Denver! Viva Penal" · Fuentes and his retinue departed in haste, for he had a plane to catch. On · the way to the airport, he commented on the honor done him by the Mayor, the enthusiastic reception, the large turnout. "I am really interested to know what your students thought." In regard to a Sixty Minutes segment being readied for September: "Why weren't Mike Wallace's cameras in Denver? They should have been here." We arrived at the airport on schedule. In fact, there was time for a farewell drink (the great man ordered a Bloody Mary) before takeoff. When we arrived at the crowded departure gate, the magnetic presence of Carlos Fuentes turned heads, riveted attention. Most of his fellow travelers didn't know who he was, but th~y guessed he must be someone important. Anybody who had met or heard him at MSC that day could have told them. - Laurence DiPaolo

Editor's Note: Thanks to the efforts of Olivia Carter and Laurence DiPaulo, the dream of having a major figure such as Fuentes on campus came true. In addition to the efforts of these two, the lecture would not have been possible without the assistance of Lecture Series Coordinator Jackie Wiegand. A special thanks must go out to her for putting together the best year-long series of events available on campus.

take with me hke a turtle, anywhere I go I can cook up columns m the · kitchen of journalism, dream poetry in the bedroom of journ~ism, and edit copy while sitting on the can of journalism. People will pay me to turn my grief into metaphors for public consumption. For thirty issues now, I have suffered through the weekly cycle of excitement, anxiety, anger, and fear to carry (like a pizza) an orange box full of The Metropolitan to our printers. For 30 issues, I've suffered a kind of postnatal depression that begins from the moment. that box leaves my sweaty, nervous hands. I will not miss the cycle of anxiety, though Production Manager Jack Affleck swears that in some perverse way it has become an addiction which I visibly crave. If it is true, then I am about to go cold turkey. What was accomplished in those issues? I wish I really knew. When I first signed on as Editor for The Metropolitan, I rushed excitedly to speak at now-assistant Editor, Keith Levise. "We have a paper!" I told him. It was as if a fantasy had come true, with all impossible things within our grasp. We thought then, naively, that the power of the press to undo apathy, enlighten ignorance, and cause change was unlimited. We thought also, that every word we released in the world would be deathless prose, destined to enlighten men through the centuries.

We were wrong.

In my first column last fall, I rhetorically asked myself "What business does an itinerant vagabond poet have running a newspaper?" I answered myself then, that the nature of the world is locked in change, that immediacy is the stuff of life, and immediacy-raw, neurotic nowness- is what newspapers are all about. I was only half right. Nowness is the vocabulary of war, of action, of change. I fought my war here, and in simply having fought, I won. I even changed. But it is time to find new adventures, to speak in the vocabulary of the searcher, wliich is poetry. I go in search of Penelope, of my belly button, and of beer. Of this I am certain: it will take ten years to find another home. That's 0. K. Right now, I desire the languid beaches and the clear mountaintops of America. No hassles, no heart~ches, no shit. -Carson Reed

Hey, guys- I hope that you can appreciate that it is very, very hard for me to say goodbye. When I take the long hike from campus this week, I walk away from an association that spans a decade. I walk away from an institution that took me from 17 to 27. Pretty much all of my adult life. I listen to my heart, and it hums like a freight train to be out in the world and back on the streets, but this time, there will be no coming back home to Auraria. Somewhere out there in the uncharted wilderness, I have to find another home. My own home. But before I can go on, I have to have my own little bit of grief. When Dr. Fontera died, it was like a personification of my own feelings that my old life was dying all around me. There are a lot of goodbyes to be said, too many goodbyes to be said if I want to do them properly. I shall skip the goodbyes. What I need to do now is find some metaphor for my lo~, fo tie my . sadness in a neat little package and wrap a ribbon around it, so that I can . drop it from a bridge as I head out of town. I choose Troy for my metaphor, because I spent ten years here, I suppose, and because it really was a war, an internal war over the beautiful Helen of Gnossos. And so, my decade in Troy is over, wherein I proved to the world that a would-be literary snob could lay siege to his own illite~te and blue: collar past and ultimately fool the guardians of _the g~te with a wooden tongue full of armed soldiers. lntimately (thoug!i through no grand plan of my own), I suppose that I proved it as possible to pass at will through the rigid (and qnadmitted) American class structure. It is, to me, the most attractive aspect of journalism, that a reporter, like a chameleon, is the equal of every high mucky-muck and every bag lady that he talks to. As an American, I have an irrepressible urge to be the equal of everybody. So long as I have my profession, I suppose that I have a portable home to

Fee Increase Called a "Scam" )

Editor I've been on this campus three years now. I've been in and around Student Government, the Administration and Faculty during most of my attendance here. I feel I've a good understanding. of the bargaining, pros and cons, jams and scams of political power plays, the "Politics of Dancing" if you will. I think we "(the students of Auraria) are being set up. There will be a public forum on May 8th for us to examine and discuss the latest SFPC "good idea"-a fee increase to revamp the Student Cen.t er. That's the day before the very last semester issue of The Metropolitan comes out. No feedback, no reports of this forum until fall on how it turned out. 'Very clever. Is that how the SFPC operates? It's like; Students( Quick( We've not mentioned it all semester but now you must vote( Nowl During finals week. As if the Student Center is the main topic of conversation between all of us during the last week of school. Give me a break!! So whose grand idea was it to hit students up for another six bucks a semester for expansion of the Student Center? A center, by the way, that's not even really run by students. Gary? Ken? The SFPC? Maybe A.lI.E.C.? Who's looking at the bidding on the construction contracts?

I do agree, we definitely could use more room to eat and study, but really, do commuter students (and we are the majority) really care about4a sound controlled TV room? It does lead one to wonder, where are our priorities? I'd be more willing to give up a few six-packs a semester for the library. Even if UCD is managing it. The SFPC wants to give more space for the clubs. Fine. I suggest they look at MSC's idea of giving McManus and crew Room 340 and give the student governments, student clubs and organizations of all three schools Room 210 and all surrounding floor space. I guess I'm suggesting re-allocating our available resources, not have students pay for a "bigger" mess. So fellow students; I know it's absurd, but if you chose to not go out and vote against this referendum, then 50 or so people (ie: students) who have a vested interest in ego building, and who will vote yes, will pass this issue. (remember; a majority rules, even if only 100 people vote). Then McManus and Company will definitely charge each and everyone of you six bucks for more of what we already have and unfortunately misallocate and misuse. You can bet on it. Steven Shepherd

Family Night "Fantastic, '' Organizers Praised Editor I The Auraria campus must be bursting with pride after the success of the 6th annual Auraria Family Night celebration which was held in .the Auraria Student Center. My family and I attended this year's event and J must say that the Auraria Student Center's staff and all the other organizati9ns involved in making this one of the most enjoyable events this season, should be proud to be part of such a prestigious event. This was the most organized and spirited event that I have attended, at any campus, thus far . The pictures on page 10 of The Metropolitan's May 2, 1984 issue were great. However, your title "The Greatest Show on Campus" should have read: "The Greatest Show on Earth" for the event itself was fantastic( I was so impressed with the carnival atmosphere, the entertainment a:nd the

graciousness of the Auraria Student Center hosts that I wanted to meet the P?wer behind the force. I was informed that Barbara Weiske, Facility Coordinator for the Auraria. Student Center, organized and guided her staff and the other student organizations through this (nothing short of genius) affair. Unfortunately, I never .did get to meet Barbara and I hoped that you would publish this letter, so that I might be able to congratulate Barbara Weiske the Auraria Student Center staff, MSC-UCD and DACC student organiza: tions for a terrific job in making this event successful. I am sure that I am subm~tting this on beh~f of all the persons that attended your Family Night, w~o Just do not have hme to write but who in all sincerity, tremendously en1oye~ this event. We are all looking forward to next year's affair. Sincerely, Shirley Montoya, Colorado School of Mines

Nicaraguan Grateful for U.S. Assistance

Editor( As a concerned Nicaraguan citizen, I am writing to you in reference to the letter by Mr. David W . Dunblazier, which was printed in your May 2, 1984 issue with the headline "Soldiers of Peace Not Communitsts." Mr. Dunblazier seems to forget a few very important things, which I would like to bring up: The U.S. is helping the people of Nicaragua fight their communist government. That is the only choice left to the Nicaraguan people, since the Sandinista government would not allow political pluralism and keeps postponing their "restricted elections". The counter-revolutionaries, "contras", are Nicaraguan citizens from all walks ot life. Their political diversity is large, but as a whole, they have a common destiny: Fighting to be a.hie to live in their homeland in peace, and in a democratic and just society. The U.S. is also assisting the government of El Salvador, lawfully elected by the people of that country, in its fight against the " terrorism" instigated by extreme left-wing guerrillas, who are assisted, financed and directed by the Sandinista government, Cuba, and the Soviet Union. These guerillas are the same ones that tried to keep the Salvadorean people from exercising their right to decide who do they want to rule their country. These guerrillas kidnapped, wounded, and killed people who were trying to comply with their civic duty, but they could not stop the people from going to the voting polls. Let's' not forget the priests and other members of the clergy are "soldiers of peace", and their word is that of the Lord. Some of them, though, have chosen to bear arms against people that do not agree with them politically. Just to mention one of the many, Father Gaspar Garcia, a Spanish priest,

~e.R \\\\i ca.Jan A\~ \0 TMe. CO~ \t1 C.al'tm. Alftlt\CA .â&#x20AC;˘.

member of the Sandinista Front, who died in combat in late 1970, when the guerrilla cell'he commanded tried to take over the Port of San Juan del Sur, in southern Nicaragua. Others abandoned their mission as carriers of the word of God and took up working with political sides that promote totalitarianism, violence, and oppression. In this instance, I will mention the cases of Fathers Cardenal, Arguello, and Escoto; among others, who have top positions in the Sandinista government. All these clergyman not only go against the sacred beliefs of Christianity, but also promote the harassment, scorn, and other violent acts against members of the clergy that really stand by the true teachings of the Bible, and justice and welfare for their people. The war in Nicaragua has been-going on for over eight years now. The political change in 1979, forced by international pressure, only brought more unhappiness and tears to the Nicaraguan people. In this cruel and bloody affair, innocent by-standers suffer abuses from both sides. That is one of the sad tragedies of war. But the violence would not stop until the Nicaraguan people are allowed to freely express their 'P<>litical opinions, and decide who they want to rule their country. Nobody has the right to deny the privileges of citizenship and democracy to anybody just because of different political views. . Please, let's not forget that in order to be fair and just, before we can pass judgement on anything, we have to listen to both sides of the story. That is what the Nicaraguan people are fighting for, and I am grateful to the U.S. government for helping us fight for that right. P.J. Escobar Jr. MSC Student

Neighbors Pitch In To Save Communit photos (3) by Jack Affleck

Over 35 years ago, when my parents first moved to Denver, south Santa Fe drive was a major access road into Denver. The bulk of the traffic it carried was tourists and truckers, occasionally pulling off the road for coffee to stay awake, or a bed to sleep in.

The relocation of residents at the Laube obviously enjoys comparing a map- of the Holmes mobile home park at original design (which appears as if it were drawn along Belleview and Santa Fe began in 1981, to make room for a hotel and the straight edge of a T-square) with the new design, convention center complex 路called the Riverfront Festival Center.

WHERE flltimately pegotiated with the Riverfront Autliority to ensure adequate placement for all the residents, "The community was scattered all over the Denver area, many into low income housing where they couldn't even take their pets,'' Laube says. Residents were promised a replacement community in 1981, she said, but were told six weeks prior to eviction "that there would be no community." As a result, many are still "suffering a kind of shell shock," from the move, Laube says. The same thing might very well have happened to Laube and other residents along the south Santa Fe corridor, if it hadn't been for a study conducted by a University of Colorado at Denver anthropology class in 1981. Led by graduate student Shirley Sociological Research Methods II - Jones, (who had done the original i commissioned studies for the HighwaY.

WHERE's work might have ended there, except they had already formed an idea to create a cooperatively owned mobile home park in Denver, and the need for more and more affordable mobile home space was increasingly evident. With the help of funding, principally from United Way Venture Grant funds, the Piton Foundation, and the Campaign for Human Developme~t. - WHERE created the South Santa Fe Development Cooperative, Inc., which is currently planning a 240 site mobile home community on 160 acres of land in Douglas County. Cooperative members will be able to move into the planned community as part-owners rather than as renters, and at monthly rates comparable to or below what they are now paying, based on income. Initial planning for this development (including site selection, design, financing alternatives, and zoning)was done by UCO graduate architecture students under the direction of Professor Jerry Shapins. MSC Urban Studies senior Steven Giles got involved in the South Santa Fe Development Cooperative in its early stages, leaving school for a year to work in the program. "It was an excellent opportunity, and I couldn't turn it down,'' says Giles, "This is something new-no group has ever created a co-op mobile home community from scratch." And WHERE's work with the Englewood co~munities was far from finished. "With the highway coming in so close to the communities, we knew there would still be problems," says Laube. Those problems include the rezoning of the area for industrial use, noise problems, and the loss of access roads to their homes-not to mention the continuing deterioration of the area. WHERE members came up with a tentative plan-the Englewood Community Preservation Project-to co-operatively buy up the various mobile home parks and turn them into a planned community. But first, WHERE needed to find out who wanted to stay in the area, and what the residents wanted in a cont. 'on pagr 14

War On Students

Continued from page 1

JJl

the year following the first protests in April, 1976, when several students were shot, the first public hangings took place. Since then, proKhadafi students (who virtually run the campuses) have strung up students on or near the April 7 anniversary of the first hangings. This year, the hanging of two students in Tripoli sparked the protests of Libyan students in London, resulting in machine-gun attack from an embassy window and the expulsion of the Libyan diplomatic contingent. For his part, Mohamed came to The Metropolitan with an epitaph for his friend. "Rashid Kabarour-our friendship started 13 years- ago when we were teenagers in the Boy Scouts. He was born in 1959 in Tripoli. He had such a personality that no one could forget him; he earned the love and respect that everyone had for him. In 1978 he became very religious, and in the same time he was starting on his first year of medical school. Then in the beginning of 1979 he joined a religious group led by a ve~y well respected man in the co~unity named She~ Mohamed Albeshti. The group formed when Khadafi attacked the Islanuc religion very deeply, so the group had to fight back for their principles. In December 1980 Rashid was finishing his second year at the University of Tripoli, when he and members of his group were picked up from the mosque they were meeting at, and thrown in the jail. No one could see Rashid for about two years, then the authorities allowed his family to visit him once every couple of months. His mother couldn't take it· anymore, so she went and talked to someone she knew that knows Khadafi to talk to him about the release of her son. Khadafi agreed to his release under one condition-that Rashid bad to go out on a pro-Khadafi demonstration. Well, everyone knew that Rashid wouldn't do that, so on April 9, 1984, Rashid Kabar (along with) Salem Almandi were bamted in public at the University of Tripoli.

'Mohamed' Lives in Fear of Fellow Students The students reponsible for the hangings belong to the Revolutionary Committee, a group charged with carrying out "the will of the revolution." They also reportedly ha~e forced students to leave classes to attend the hangings-according to an article in the May 4 New York Times, this year's hangings were postponed because students boycotted the campus. Students, in fact, have become the chief threat to the Khadafi regime. According to Nagib Kikhia, an openly anti-Khadafi student at MSC, there is a high level of frustration at not being able to effect change from the distant coast of the U.S. "You can't do very much to hurt him from the outside," he said. "Something has got to happen from the inside." · · · Nagib has political asylum in the U.S., granted because he has been involved in protests "all the way back." " If you eat lunch with Nagib," said Mohamed, "all the other (Libyan) students watch you." "Khadafi is getting away with murder," says Nagib, who sometimes runs a table of anti-Khadafi informa-

ti on in the Student Center.

"It's very hard to be here when you know that everyone at home has been suffering for 14 years." Nagib said that a student raid on the Libyan offices in Virginia turned up extensive records on the students. "Things like what they did and who they were seen with," said Nagib, "and pictures of students at protests." It wai for that reason that the students who protested at the Capitol April 18 wore masks, he said. "I took a lot of pictures at the rally," he said, "You know, if I were willing to write the names of the people on the back, I could get a lot of money for these pictures." For that reason, Nagib said antiKhadafi students must be extremely careful about who gets into their groups. "We have to watch them for awhile, just like they watch us." "I left Libya to go to school so that I could be free. Now that I'm here, I'm watched, so I'm not free. " "The way I see it," says Nagib, "there's got to be an end to it. I can never go home so long as Khadafi is in power. But I want to go home some day. We all do." -Carson Reed 1

planned community. But it wasn't as simple as that: "I had some background in research methods, and I knew how to run a survey but not how to write one," Laube says. By chance, Steven Gile's wife Mary Giles was taking a class at MSC (Sociological Reseach Methods II) which was searching for an area to do a survey in. Mary Giles was working as a WHERE volunteer at the time, and suggested the project to Professor Louis Dilatush and to the class. "Mary was very fast on her feet," said Laube, who was receptive to the idea of letting the class write the survey based on issues identified by community members. They did, and WHERE volunteers collected over 160 completed surveys which are now compiled and ready for WHERE's use as a statistical base for grant requests, loan applications, and, if necessary, court battles.

cont. from page 11

Giles estimated that the survey, which ultimately cost WHERE only a few thousand dollars, had a relative commercial value of nearly $500,000. "Our support from the area schools has just been phenomenal," agreed Laube, who added that WHERE is continally in need of co-op eel and work study students for its operations. The construction on the Santa Fe expressway is going through, and there is little disagreement that it is needed. But it will be going through at minimal impact to ·residents, and could even be thought of as the catalyst for grand improvements in . the lives of the corridor residents. Laube is justifiably proud of the homes she saved-and says with some chagrin that somehow, her own home from which the offices of WHERE are run, is one of the few that will still be displaced by the construction. "I guess that's the way it goes," she -Carson Reed says.

Symphony Concert Erratic by Karen Ziebell Reviewer, The Metropolitan

' ·'-

The MSC Symphony Orchestra played for a small but mostly appreciative audience Sunday evening at St. Cajetan's. The evening's program, directed by MSC facultv member William Morse featured compositions by Cowen: Schubert, and Respighi. The opening number, Hymn and Fuguing Tune by Henry Cowell, w1lS, unfortunately, lifeless. Cowell, a proponent of new trends in American music, failed to remember that the audience would not appreciate his innovative style if they did not understand his music. However, the MSC symphony orchestra came back to life on the second piece, Schubert's Symphony No. 5 in B Flat Mafor. The chamber orchestra did have its moments of weakness, however. The first violin section had trouble staying in tune and in time. Of all the musicians in the orchestra, the evening's concert proved that the cellos and doublebass sections had superior talent. Unfortunately, for the orchestra and audience, the second movement to Schubert's work was interrupted by the hissing and spitting radiatOrs in St. Cajetan's, and the performance was nearly ruined. The audience's attention was focused on the radiators and, as a result, the orchestral performance suffered. The highlight of the concert was, undoubtej:ily, the pif;e by Ottorino Respighi balled The Pines of Rome.

The four-part tone poem written in 1924 and performed by the full orchestra brought the house to its feet. · The rafter-shaking ending, which describes the glory of Rome and Italy, vibrated the audience as the final notes boomed out. MSC has a symphony orchestra that every student should hear at least once. They perform twice each semester, and an outdoor concert each summer on the 9th Street Park. Attend the next one and learn for yourself the joys of symphony. D

tenderloin-five days a week. The rest of the buffet was so-so, with the nachos the only other thing worth mentioning. The people were fun to watch, though. I saw a short, rotund, balding Tech Center business man with a face like Porky Pig's stack three hot dogs on his plate-while sticking a fourth in his mouth. Hot dogs instead of tenderloin, anyone? People are strange ... Cocktails served resulted in mixed reactions. Dante's Foster Lagermuch to his amazement-came in the full-size, 45-ounce, STP-type can. However, Beatrice's strawberry daquiri had so much red food coloring it looked like blood-Kool-Aid daquiris. Fortunately, the daqtiiri was sent back by our waitress (Lori) and the second one was much improved. There is nothing worse than a fake daquiri-except for fake cheese ... maybe. H. Brinker's lounge is cramped and crowded. Of course, I've never had a fantasy of sitting in a working windmill to eat, drin,k and be merry. This · is the only real drawback to an otherwise nice place. Tired of the packed windmill, we headed north to Marina Landing (8101 E. Belleview Ave.) to rub elbows with the nouveau riche. We were surprised by the abundant foodstuffs available, which included hotbarbeque chicken wings (the best I've tasted) mini-sausage sandwiches, corn fritters, and strawberry cake. Dante loaded up on the chicken wings-face beaming again like a gastronomical beacon; he was in heaven. Drink service was really terrible, though. After waiting nearly 20 minutes (and two trips to the food bar) our space-cadet waitress popped her head around the corner and said: "Did you want something?" I proceeded to explain to her that we had appointed this corner of the lounge (over by the fish) as "freeload corner," because no one looked for us, and we could ha.ye cleaned out the entire food bar without buying a drink. "Oh, my fault, so sorry," she said. It's your tip, lady ... The atmosphere at Marina Landing reeks of money, and lots of it. 1 mean, who else can afford to yacht their lives away but people with money? The fish were very entertaining, though-more so than .the boring, stuffed-shirt crowd. Mqrina Landing has a huge salt-water fish tank filled with exotic fish. This is the formula for fun at Marina Landing: Walk in, grab yourself a cocktail, raid the foodbar, and watch the fish . It sure beats trying to relate to the humdrum, irksome clientele. As you can see, the land of plastic and plenty can by very gastronomically rewarding. Pay no mind to the dull, "me-first" people; or the weird buildings; etc. The Denver Tech Center area can be fun, if you know how to utilize 'it.· Maybe I'll take up permanent residency out there.

MSC Teams Reached Highs, Hit Lows in '84 by Curtis Sandoval

Reporter, The Metropolitan

During the 1983-84 athletic season, senior diver Jeff Smith was Msc:s most valuable athlete as he became th.e first athlete in Metro history to win an individual national championship. Smith did so by winning the three- meter board diving title at the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA} swiming and diving. championships in Arkendelphia, Arkansas.

., Smith also bagged All-American honors when be placed second on the one meter-board and teamed up with freshman sensation John Thierry to give the team its best showing in ten years, a 15th place national finish. Thierry captured eighth place at the NAIA meet in the 100-yard freestyle, breaking his own school record with a 47:10 time. The women's squad was lead by Barb Bogner and Betsy Weber, and the coed team quali.fied an incredible nine swimmers in 13 events to the national championships. Bogner and Weber will be looking forward to the new all-women's team next season. (..

budget, compared to those of other schools in the state. · ' Overall, the indoor season was very successful as the team set 16 school records, and the outdoor track season picked up where the indoor season left off. The team is getting ready for the nationals in Charleston, West . Virginia, in late May. By the end of the season the outdoor team hopes to have set a half-dozen school records. Both Blueback and Liese are also nearing times that could give them trips to the Olympic Trials in June; Liese is a mere 20 seconds off qualifying time in the 5000 meters.

The club finished the season with an overall recotd of 19-21 and a league record of 16-18. The women's soccer team, led by All-League soccer players Corrin Maine, Cindy Beren, Deborah Berdahl and Rosie McGrath, turned a previously losing team into a 11-8-1 winner this season. l,Jnder new head coach Scott Schwartz, the team captured third place in the nine-school Rocky Mountain Intercollegiate Soccer League. MSC was plagued with injuries this year, but did manage to beat crosstown rival D. U. three times in their beautiful new uniforms (purchased in part with Schwartz's salary).

One highlight of the season came while playing D. U. The Pioneers have an Olympic prospect pitcher by the name of Ed West. He was being scouted intensely when Metro played D .U. and MSC pitcher Bob Weber clearly outpitched him during the VOLLEYBALL game, with a five-hit, two-run performance.

SOFfBALL The softball team this year came from out of the cellar to capture the "independent school" birth in the District VII tournament in Cedar City, Utah, last weekend. The women ended the year with a 13-11 record. The remarkable feat they accomplished was being able to win with no assistance from the bench-that's because there was no bench. First year coach Jim Romero began the season with only ten players. Then a player quit and Romero was left with no one sitting on the bench and only nine players. But the team .continued to win and put themselves above .500 and into the district tournament. Last weekend in Utah, the team's luck came to an abrupt end. The women lost their first game to a strong-hitting Utah squad to give them their first loss in the tournament. In the second game, MSC hit the ball well but committed eight errors as they were eliminated from the tournament by New Mexico Highlands.

The indoor track team this year ranked second in overall performance. Charlie Blueback captured . his third NAIA All-American honor by placing third in the mile at the national championships in Kansas City. John Liese also made All-American by placing fourth in the t:wo-mile nationals. The women were led by Kim Hall, who became the first woman MSC indoor All-American as she captured a fourth place finish at nationals. The women's team gave Metro their best national finish ever, placing 17th. The team, coached by Brian Jannsen, sent a record 13 runners to nationals.

Hoop Tryouts a Success "I don't care how good you are; if you don't have a good attitude, we don't need you," he said. And for him, part of a good attitude is interest in an education and a degree as well as playing basketball. Approximately 30 men tried out last week; from these and approximately 10 recruits, Ligouri will pick a 12-man team for road games and 15 men for the home stands. If money ~an be raised, there is also a possibility for a JV squad. Ligouri liked the hustle of the athletes, who put out a lot of effort, even though they were out of shape. Ligouri doesn't anticipate an undefeated season- nor should anyone else on this campus, but "we will have a respectable program of student athletes," said Ligouri.

After four months of behind the scenes preparations, head coach Bob Ligouri got his first glimpse of the 1984-85 basketball team at their tryouts last Thursday and Friday night. There has been some talk on campus that bringing back men's basketball is a mistake, but after watching the tryouts, there is no way the basketball program here won't succeed. · During the tryouts, Ligouri looked for the· players who could play good defense as well as offense, who could shoot well, but wouldn't force a bad shot. He kept an eye out for quick athletes but not "hot dogs." One thing Ligouri very clearly looked for was players with a good attitude.

Tracksters Set Records I

Zelda Thomas, 56.-S5 in the 400-meter dash and Kim Hall, 14.3 in the 100-meter hurdles, set two new MSC records in a second place finish at the women's Air Force meet Saturday.

IN GENERAL The 1983-84 athletic season has proved to be Qne of Metro's best. Much of the credit can be given to a

dedicated athletic director by the name of Bill Helman. Metro athletics are beginning to be recognized around the state as well as the nation as being competitive. And with the hiring of an outstanding sports information director, Michael Klahr, the Roadrunners are finding their way into the papers and minds of Denver residents. The coming year may just be the start of an outstanding athletic as well as academic coll~ge. '
