The legislative Committee on Higher Education heard from the state board governing colleges and universities Tuesday in the Student Center-and the disc~ion centered on how Auraria could be reorganized. . ..- The six boards seemed to agree that the state-wide system should be restructured, but no one oould agree on how to change it. An expert on state education . systems of the Education Commission of the States, asked introductory questions of the commit•tee: ..... has the state considered changes in its methods of financing higher education ... as an alternative to structural change, or at least in conjunction with that change? Have the full range of policy tools T other than reorganization been explored to resolve the state's problems or achieve its goals?

TuitiOn Increases Vary by Susan Skorupa Special to The Metropolitan

(CPS)-ln-state students at Michigan's four-year state colleges and universities won't have to pay any more tuition than they did last year. But students at Arizona's three state universities will pay 14 percent more, even though the national inflation rate has been around four percent since last fall. Students nationwide, in short, are finding a mixed tuition picture as they start fall classes. While scattered colleges and university systems have managed to hold increases to a minimum, many other schools have imposed tuition hikes well above the inflation rate. "There's no trend toward freezing or raising tuition that I'm aware of," say.s Brooke Breslow of the College Board. "There will be different states and institutions each year that freeze. Some stay stable for two years, then go up. The others freeze the next year." In Mid-August, the College Board predicted total college costs-which include room and board, books, supplies, transportation, and personal expenses as well as tuition-will rise an average six percent this fall.

Some colleges, of course, have been more successful than others in keeping increases down. Administr~tors at all of Mi~higan's four-year colleges took Gov. James Blanchard's offer to freeze in-state undergraduate tuition in exchange for an 11 percent increase in state funding. "There was some concern among administrators that tuition was too high," says Ron J ursa of Michigan State Higher Education Management. "Colleges were afraid of being priced out of the market." "I think the freeze is good," stresses Jim Labadie, a senior at Wayne State University in Detroit. "But tuition is still fairly high. I think we're still among the top ten in the country in terms of high tuition rates." Tuition freezes, in fact, typically don't last. The University of New Mexico has followed last year's tuition freeze with a 10 percent hike this year. , "The 10 percent reflects the change · in state funding," says UNM budget director Jim Wiegamann. "We also needed to make up somewhat for the 1983-84 freeze." And this year's freeze in the state of W ashingtoo could translate into a 24 percent increase during the 1985-1987 · period at state community colleges,

Peace Co_rps Recruiters During the week of September 10, ., Peace Corps recruiter Louis Moore, along with volunteer recruiters Susan Kirinich and David Baron, will be in the Student Center to explain the Peace Corps program. Some fields of study are preferred by the Peace Corps, including science, 1.. math, language, and engineering. The heads of the host countries helps determine the kind of skills the Peace Corps is looking for. "Of course we are always looking for the auxiliary skill," Moore said, "for the philosophy major who was raised ' on a farm." "The line I use a lot in recruiting is: 'you're not going to come back with anything l~ than you left with."' "The whole idea with the PeaceCorps is that you're working with people," Kirinich said. She spent two years teaching English in Zaire. "People must make o~t ~hat th~ ~an_!:"

Approximately 5,200 Peace Corps volunteers work world wide, with the heaviest concentration in Africa. Crosscultural exchange is s~ by working abroad. . "You get a different dimension on your field overseas," Baron said, "Something you never get in the states." While serving as a volunteer in the Peace Corps, $250 to $300 per month enables one to live comfortably. In addition, the volunteer is paid a readjustment allowance of $175 per month for the duration of his or her stay outside of the country. This money is put in a U.S. bank and, presuming the volunteer fulfills the average two-year commitment, the balance enables him to reenter society financially secure. Wednesday evening, at 7:00 p.m., a documentary film on the Peace Corps will be shown in room #254 of the Student Center. 0

Gomez Moves to Texas The Directof of Administrative Services for the Auraria Higher Education Center, Raul Gomez, left his position on August 17 to join his family's import business in El Paso, Texas. According to Jim Schoemer, executive deputy director of AHEC, Gomez did an excellent job during his .. three-and-a-half-years as director. Since Gomez's departure, Schoemer said, the various services once handled by Administrative Services, including parking, printing, mail and telecommunications, have been split up. Without a director, he said, it was ill( felt the transition period before a new director is found would be easier if the ~

responsibilities were shared. Mail and telecommunications is temporarily being run by business services, Schoemer said, printing, as a separate service, is being managed by John Turk, the Book Center director, while parking and transportation is being run by Nora Cavelli. Most of these changes will probably be permanent, he said. Cavelli, he said, was appointed the interim director based on her record as Assistant Director of Public Safety. A permanent director will probably be picked by a search committee by January l, Schoemer said. 0

And if Florida and other colleges are any indication, students everywhere may soon be facing tough new restrictions on what they can do in campus housing. Florida decided to think seriously about' joining the growing number of colleges that restrict visiting hours when a university task force suggested the changes in July. Student reaction was mixed. The 13-member task force, made up of faculty, students and community representatives, was reacting to an alleged rape at a fraternity house and a campus hearing into a student's complaint about being disturbed by latenight visitors, says Hugh Cunningham, director of university information. "Currently, overnight visitation is not permitted." Cunningham notes. "But 24-hour visitation is, so obviously overnight visitation probably exists." Among the suggestions were in-house monitoring by students and staff of individual residence halls, and live-in adult supervision in fraternity houses. Most fraternio/ members reacted

To the editor, . Sometimes, we all wonder why we are here on Earth. Such is my easel rm a 36 year old black American male confined in a state prison, Texas Department of Correction. I had a good life and home, but that is gone now. Sometimes, I wonder which way is up, because it is lonely here. It is the same old routine here day in and day out. Mail is a big help to keep one from going insane. The mailman comes around in the evening about 5 p.m. to pass out the mail-and it would feel good going to bed knowing that someone on the outside cares. Prison is a place to look into the mirror and see gray hair that wasn't there before. It is a place one waits for the letters that never come-and visits that never show. To give you some consolation!

Happy Dayfl 路Rm has decided that college students can have discount bus passes..Bill Rourke, an RTD board member, was quoted in last week's MET saying" ...Ben Boltz contributed to the ruling ..." Now let me explain this word "contributed." Contributing means researching information on bus systems throughout the country and finding out about their discounts to college students. Contributed means contacting every college in the RTD district; I mean EVERY College from Regis to Rockmont. Contributed means obtaining letters from each of these schools stating the need for RTD discount passes for their students. Contributed means taking all this information to RTD and making a presentation before the RTD Board in the face of opposition on the Board itself to college student dis-

Contributed means a 路lot of leg work, a lot of effort and a lot of determination. Without any of this "contribufed," the RTD Board would never even have considered discount passes for college students.

Elton John, the flamboyant "pianoman" himself, delivered an electric performance Friday night to a packed crowd at McNichols Arena, . despite the looming shadow of the· Jaclcson concert nearby. The prooemon of fans into both McNichols and Mile High Stadium, was, surprisingly, quite orderly. And if Michael wowed his huge · gathering, Elton John had his fans in the throes of ecstacy. He leaped on stage in a playful mood, ready to romp in parachute pants, bomber jacket and hot pink captain's hat. He settled behind a white u . baby grand like a kid who had found a ~ favorite playmate. ~ Moans of "alright" echoed through i_ the yuppy crowd as Elton began the eveajng with the plaintive "Tiny Dancer" and then ''Levon". He seemed . ~o be fueling_ the crowd slowly, priming them for the racier material yet to come. Though Elton's stage was not Jackson high-tech, it was effective. A huge wheel of multi-colored lights rocked and rotated to the music, lending the appropriate color, setting the mood for each song. A pyramid shaped form, visible only from the side of the stage, beCame a surreal object of the imagination. When Elton slipped into the old favorite "Rocket Man", it became a silvery, smoldering rocket poised to fly. Fred Mandel on keyboards punctuated the number and coaxed it into a longer, concert style version. The audience, off its feet and swaying to the beat, was not disappointed. Davey Johnson on guitar and Dee Murray on bass had a relaxed, casual air throughout the evening. Nigel Oman, in rare form pounded tjie drums with childish abandon. · Elton was ever eager to please. He

guided his audience on a trip down memory lane. Tunes with a driving beat were juxtaposed next to those with · a slower, more thoughtful rhythm- "Daniel" beside "Philadelphia Freedom", "Candle In The Wind" before "The Bitch is Back." • The audience. up on its feet by this time, clamored for more.. Elton included some material from his new album, including the tune "Restles.<', at which point he was presented with a bouquet of roses from " someone in the audience. The crowd, geared to a fever pitch as the concert wound down, begged for more. In a show of appreciation, Elton threw his red coattail to the drooling multitude, who were having at least as 0 much fun as the crowd next door.

SPORIS Alnmni Teach Volleyball Team Defensive ~ns take a couple of games to adjust to it. The -alUmni went on to take game one 15-11. In game two, the second team varsity put up a good fight against the alumni. They led 14-11, but the alumni prevailed, winning 16-14. •

by Curt Sandoval Sporn Editor, The Metropolitan

When you think of MSC alumni games, you think of the old Metro athletes coming in to try and "show their stuff' against the younger, more talented varsity players. The varsity players always seem to have the edge because they've been practicing precise plays. Right?

In game three, the alumni were awesome. Led by Anita Johnson, who played for MSC last season, the alumni shut the first team varsity down 15-3. Once again, in game four, the second ._ team played the alumni respectable, losing 15-13. You had to wonder if this nine member alumni team, that wasn't getting near th~ amount of rest the varsity was getting, was going to take a clean sweep over the varsity.

Well, you couldn't tell the 'MSC-volleyball alumni that last Wednesday night when they walloped this year's varsity four gail\fa. in a row before the varsity got its act together and won the last game. The alumni w~ted no time as they jumped out to a 5-0 lead in game one, before head coach Pat Johnson called a time out. The varsity, led by juniors Teri Mohr, Donna Baros, Sue Hays, and Catherine Guiles, were adjusting to a new defense game plan.

But in game five the varsity weren't going to be denied. They jumped out to g a quick 6-0 lead. Guiles, the tallest i player at 5'10", was spectacular as she Jl led the team with five spikes including ~ the game winning kill. The varsity took u;:,, that game 15-7. •

Men's· Soccer Gets Off to Shaky Start by Curt Sandoval Spot'U Editor, The Metropolitan

The men's soccer team had a 1-2 record this past week, beating Adolphos Gustavos Saturday 3-1 but •losing to Mines and Regis earlier in the week 3-0 and 4-1 respectively. "In the Mines game we had nothing to be ashamed of," said heaq coach

Harry Temmer. The Roadrunners outshot Mines in the first half 8-2 but trailed 1-0. Temmer said two of the goals Mines scored were late in the game, and that MSC wasn't playing tough mentally. Metro simply didn't get off on the right track against Regis as the Rangers held a commanding 3-0 halftime lead. MSC cam,e out firing in the second

Women Drop Two Straight •

by Curt Sandoval Spot'U Editor, The Metropolitan

The MSC women's soccer team dropped a double header last weekend in Colorado Springs, losing • 1-0 to St. Marys and 4-0 to Colorado College. The women played extremely well against St. Marys. However, Dani Denight, MSC's starting goalie, went out in the first five minutes of play -. with a twisted knee as she was trying to defend a shoot taken on goal. The women suffered three other injuries during that game. Two hours later, a tired and injured MSC took on Colorado College. Head coach Harry Temmer said he thought ~ the players could have played better in that game if they were given more rest, by substitutes, during the first game. The women could not afford an

injury with only 11 members heafthy. Temmer exp~ his displeasure with the Colorado Stars, a local soccer club that has recruited two women from his already nominally sized team this year. "They (the Colorado Stars) know not what they do, they think they do, but' they don't,'' Temmer said. He added that the Stars have recruited from both the men's and women's teams in the past. "They offer the women the concept that they are the best women's team in the state and then ask them if they want to play for them," said the upset head coach. "They're hurting college soccer programs." . At the present time, Temmer is looking for women interested in play- · ing soccer this year for MSC. If interested, contact Temmer at 629-3082 or intercollegiate athletics at 629-8300. 0

,CC Team Starts Slowly The MSC men's cros,, country team finished fifth in the six school meet ' last weekend at W estem State College in Gunnison. John Montgomery was the top ,. finisher for MSC placing 21st with a 28:25 time for five miles. George Frushour and Charlie Blueback were right behind Montgomery, finishing 27th and 28th respectively. Roy Roberts and Tim Bryant also scored for MSC with 34th and 48th place ~ finishes. First year coach Michael Peterson said at the time he may be overly optimistic, but he thinks MSC can catch every team that beat Metro at

the meet, excluding previous NAIA national champions Adams State. The University of New Mexico Highlands, W estem State and Mines all finished ahead of MSC at the meet. Peterson said the team went out slow but caught a lot of people in the last two miles. He added that MSC has only been doing distance running in order to build a solid base. The Roadrunners have yet to begin speed and interval training. · Peterson said the team, which is gearing everything up for the district • tournament, did not do well, but said he is pleased with the results when he thinks of where the program is at the present time. 0

half, controlling the offense- wearly with three shots on goal. However; nothing went for MSC. Then, frustration began to take its tole. Metro• began to compete more with the referees than the Rangers. The· MSC coaching staff as well as the players seemed more concerned that the officials were calling the game evenly. "We deserved to lose," T~mmer said. As the frustration continued, tempers began to flair and Dan Coffey found himself in a fight with Mike Fredrick of Regis. "Fredrick was getting away with murder," Temmer said. He added that the MSC coaching staff discourages this type of play from all of their athletes. Metro did spark some offense midway through the second half when Greg Sumlin got the ball on a

breakaway and took a shot that hit the cros,, bar and went in for a goal. Metro then trailed 3-1. But just when the Roadrunners had thoughts of a ~ible win or tie, Regis came right back and put a shot in the corner of the goal against keeper Coffey to give Regis a 4-1 lead that took all the wind out of any pomble hopes the Roadrunners had. Metro did get fired up Saturday as they rolled over Adolphas Gustavos 4-1. Temmer said MSC played well overall, both offensively and defensively. Metro opened up a 3-0 lead before Adolphos scored. "We had a natural mental letdown when they scored," Temmer said. He added the team this year iS trying to avoid -this by playing with more intensity throughout their games. O
