March vote puts fee increase in hands of Auraria students

Pebruary27, 1987

Dick Feuerborn, campus rec director, says "no room at the . gym. "

Gym expansion debate heats up ;

by Bob Haas In two weeks students will decide whether to increase the cost of their· education by spending an extra $20 per year in student fees. The money would be used to expand the physical education/recreation building into a physical education, recreation and events center. The $3. l million expansion will depend on the outcome of a campuswide referendum in which students will vote on a mandatory fee increase of $9.99 per semester. AHEC, all three institutions at Auraria and their respective governing bodies have all pledged to support the increase on the ._ condition of student approval. · The new facility would be managed directly by AHEC, in conjunction with a new student/faculty advisory council. The council would consist of a student and faculty or staff from each of the three institutions, and a physical education faculty member. The council would assist the yet to be named director in scheduling and events coordinating decisions. The present facility was built in

1976, and was designed as a space for instruc tional and academic use, according to Jim Schoemer, deputy executive director for AHEC. But demands for the facility from recreation programs and intercollegiate athletics, as well as physical education classes have created an overcrowded situation, Schoemer said. "Students are not paying for any instructional space - students are building their own space. The state will retain and continue to pay for its instructional space," he said. Prsesently, because the facility is designated as instructional , or academic space, the state pays all operational and maintenance costs, and campus rec schedules its programs around physical e ducation requirements. "We've b een getting it free for ten years," said Dick Feuerborn, director of campus rec. "When the pool needs cleaning, we don't pay a dime. When the courts needed resurfacing, the state paid for it." 20 percent of the upkeep and maintenance would b e paid by the new fee revenue, and the state would fund the rest.

Additionally, the money raised by the extra fee will go toward more handball/raquetball courts , extra locker rooms, an expanded lobby, an expanded weightroom with more space and updated equipment, and an expanded gymnasium, which could be used as an Events Center, housing commencement ceremonies, concerts and guest speakers.The gymnasium would also be leased for about $40,000 a year to Metro State's department of intercollegiate athletics. The expansion is not a "posturing " toward intercollegiate ath le tics, Feuerborn said. "It angers me that people believe I'm being used b y the ath letics department. "The entire campus will be funding this facility," h e said . "It's no t appropriate that MSC Athletics gets a full run (of the facility). They are the only on-campus group who will have to lease the facility." Feuerborn estimates that time and space use by athletics is now aboout 10 percent, academic use is about 32 percen t and r ecrea tion c urr e ntly utilizes 53 percent of the facility. The remaining 4-5 percent is unscheduled. ii

Ten bucks makes Auraria a better place .. .)..._

·'

by Bob Haas An expanded physical education building would become a campus gathering place, and would provide a sense of community at Auraria, according to a campus recreation official. "This facility would be a part of a student/faculty/staff nucleus , giving them a community to hang out," said Dick Feuerborn, director of campus recreation. "The facility would be a focal point for a variety of student life, a lot of uses for a lot of people. Our interest is to meet a lot of needs on this campus," he said. Feuerborn schedules use of the facility, and said that campus recreation is faced with severe limitations due to lack of space. "Originally, this building was meant for teaching only," Dr. Furman Griffis of the P.E.R. department said. "We have now taken on campus rec, intramurals and athletics with no expansion or plans to expand to accomodate them." "Presently, this building is so saturated that we have absolutely no growth possibility," said Marc Rabinoff, chairman of the physical education department. "We've got a demand for classes that we can't meet because of limited space." But expanded physical education Su Wright and Al Porter contributed to these reporl8

Where else do you get this bang for your buck? space is only one reason to vote in favor of the fee increase, according to Feuerborn. "A gym's a gym's a gym," he said. ~'This (expansion) will give us the opportunity to hold large events, have speakers, to do a lot of things we haven't been able to do - also no need to impin~e on any program in favor of another. Feuerborn believes $10 a semester is a small amount to pay for access to a_ recreational facility. "It costs that much to rent a raquetball court at a downtown club,"

he said. After the East Classroom replacement building is completed, and after the Auraria Parkway project closes Lawrence and Larimer Streets, Feuerborn said an expanded Events Center will provide a hub for recreation and socializing. "This campus is at a very exciting place," he said. The average age of the Metro student , is dropping, and Feuerborn sees an expanded Events Center as a response to that change in demographics. "We need more resons to keep

students from going to CSU or CU," he said. "It's cheap compared to joining a health club ;" said UCO student Cipriano Garcia. "How much more convenient can you get? You can walk from class right to the weightroom. I think it's an excellent place for both the faculty and the students to come together. It's just an excellent vehicle for massive school socialization. I'm a biology major and I like to work out with people from that school. It's a great way for me to get to know them better." o

This place is just fine by Bob Haas There are a number of items needed at Auraria. A parking garage, better study facilities and reduced tuition come to mind. A space to socialize in sweat pants and bounce balls are not priority items.

"I think there are other things that the money could be spent for," said UCO student Debbie Behrens. And there are reservations about adding to the cost of education at Auraria. "I have concern for the cost of higher education," said John Swick,

llie only commissioner on the Colorado Commission on Higher Education to vote against the expansion at the CCHE's February 5 meeting. "The student debt load is climbmg. That one (referendum) vote is grossly unfair to the students of the next generation," he said. "I have serious

reservations about charging student fees for building construction." "We should be asking the state to fund the expansion," ASMSC senator Jay Frederick said. Frederick said the attraction for most students to come to Auraria is the economi c feasibility and academ ic excellence. "It won't be economically feasible to come to Metro with the increase," he said. "We will become comparable in cost to other colleges." "As I understand it, the concept at Metro was quality education for a reasonable cost," Swick said. "I don't care what you call it, fees are part of tuition, and I have a real concern for the rise in tuition. I have reservations about that type of facility on a nonresident campus." But some are questioning the "nonresident .. and "non-traditional" role of the Auraria institutions. Last year, Metro President Paul Magelli redefined his school as "new-age". But the average age of the Auraria student is dropping. Jim Schoemer, deputy executive director for AHEC, recognizes the emphasis at Auraria on the younger student. "The non-traditionals won't like (the increase)," he said. "I take a PE class," said Behrens. "I nmlinut•<I on pa*' 4

Buying on credit is another expansion ,

The $3. l million needed to expand the PER building will carry an $8. l million price tag by the time the bond is paid off. The additional $5 million is interest paid to investors over a 20 year bond retirement period. Though the figures are estimates, and will depend on interest rates and economic conditions, the fact remains that those who invest the money to

finance Auraria's expanded gym will make money from student fees for the next two decades. And that's why they invest the money. Whether this is the most prudent method of building a rec center is irrelevant. Because state money for capital construction is very tight, the chances of getting any to build a better gym are almost nil. So if students

decide they're in a buying mood, remembering the pain of paying a $50 MasterCard bill for a $28.95 purchase is relevant. This is why - contrary to common perception - the Student Center bond is not yet paid off, and won't be until 2006. There is all that interest yet to pay. "It's stupid to pay interest on a MasterCard, but if you don't have the

The Colorado Commission on Higher Education approved the expansion of the PER building contingent upon a positive vote for the referendum by the students. Jim Schoemer, deputy director of the Auraria Higher Education Center, said the CCHE also approved the planned expansion provided the building would be used for Division II only. "What the CCHE approved was a building for the purpose of recreation and that building can accomodate Division II athletics," Schoemer said. ''They (the athletic department) will have to work out other arrangements if they decide to go Divisioq I." Metro President Paul Magelli, who last year said that 1990 was a possible date for a move to Division I, said this week the current program would have to be evaluated before athletics at Division I is feasible. "The only thing the trustees have authorized is Division II (athletics)," Magelli said. "Any discussion of Division I is a moot issue. "We need to put our Division II program on a solid ground before we can discuss Division I and there won't be any discussion of that for some time."D

Changes/ . from page 3 just don't have time to participate in recreational events." Swick is concerned with the changes he sees at Metro. "Because of the urgency of the moment, or the ability of a particular administration or president .. . because an item is high on their list of priorities, and given the mobility of administrations, I have serious reservations that that administration can tax a student body for the next 20 years," he said. "It won't serve me," Behrens said of the new facility. "They should apply the fee after the expansion is built so the people who use it pay for it. I don't want to pay for it if I never use it. Swick said the increase will affect more than those who don't want a · recreational facility. "That fee will affect both those who can pay and those who can't," Swick said. "It will make college education that much more of a burden for those who can't pay for it." 0

Student protests MageIii' s reference to his 'kids' Editor, You might want to comment on evidence in your own newspaper as to the chasm between the way Metro students, alumni, and faculty perceive the college and the way President Magelli views it (and will rearrange it to fit his personal vision). If your reporter was accurate as usual in quoting Magelli (Feb. 13), our president wants students to attend the HamJisch-Denver Symphony Orchestra April 3 concert. His own words: "I just hope we can get our kids to buy tickets." . "Kids" is the patronizing term most high school teachers and principals use fustead of "students" or even "young adults." But what Metro "kids" is our principal talking about: the 45-year-old mother of

a Metro student who is getting her degree in nursing care for the aged? Or a Chicano contractor who is finishing up his degree in business in his eighth year as a part-time student here? Of course, "kids" will be appropriate once Magelli has driven away all but the student population he wants: ten thousand post-adolescents keenly interested in proms, fraternities, homecomings, basketball teams, and a school song. By that time, Metro will be dead, MageUi will have gone west to head a California junior college at $95,000 a year, and those men and women who want a college experience where both older students and recent high school graduates are comfortable taking classes together will have fled to our obvious refuge: UCD.

Bring back card catalogs at Auraria library Editor, I was recently doing some research at Auraria Library when I stumbled upon an interesting source that I thought I could use and went to the PAC terminals to see if they had it. Every one of the terminals was busy so I decided that I would use the card catalog instead. Think again. I was notified by the librarian that the card catalogs were being removed; no explanation was given. I waited and waited for a free terminal and finally got one. I had the author, title, and even the publisher and date of publication all neatly written down on an index card; I knew what I wanted, the machine did not. I was not in control of myself or my research by this point. When one is trying to be methodical and not miss any steps, frustration is the greatest evil imaginable. All of this could have been avoided if the trusty card catalog had been present. With its gift for combining manual dexterity and mind, it is the perfect calming

Can you afford to gamble with the LSAT, GMAT, GRE,orMCAI? Probably not. Great grades alone may not be enough to impress the grad school of your choice. Scores play a part. And that's how Stanley H. Kaplan can help. The Kaplan course teaches test-taking techniques, reviews course subjects, and increases the odds that you'll do the best you can do. So if you've been out of school for a while and need a refresher. o r even if you're fresh out of college, do what over 1 million students have done. Take Kaplan. Why take a chance with your career?

agent: the individual directly manipulates and arranges for himself a world of knowledge. Young women and men doing research need an understanding of how subjects are narrowed and made focused; they need, in short, hands-on practice at in-depth, hit-and-miss, frustrating research. No PAC terminal can provide that experience. Sifting through long bibliographies, indexes, and consulting archivists are still the only sure methods for achieving balance and cJarity in research and writing. As Barbara Tuchman has almost facetiously noted, "The card catalog, to my mind, is the supreme advantage of being an American; if there are others, they are secondary." Bring back the card catalogs and restore to students that advantage. Sincerely yours, John A. Ball

Reader: 'Met apalling, gullible Editor, The muddled efforts at investig&tive reporting by C. Patrick Cleary and Sean-Michael Gilmore last week, lacked journalistic integrity for preserving objectivity. The absence of continuity in deductive reasoning behind the financial aid and tuition increase articles had appalling results. Cleary's article on financial aid had a stench of bias in the opening statement. The rationale used to explain the surplus and availability of financial aid was con famed in an interview by our colorful Financial Aid Director, Cheryl Judson. She claims that a public misconception about a shortage in financial aid originated from, " ... a smoke-screen by Republicans to discourage people from applying for aid." This indictment seemed a bit pretentious for a public administrator. Perhaps our federal and state representatives allocated the right amount of financial aid, as the theme of the article indicated. This brings us to an interesting point of fact, in lieu of Judson's testimonial that financial aid has increased from $6 million to $10 million in the last two years. The MSC Budget Director, Tim Greene, has alleged that a shortfall in financial aid will occur in the future, without the benefit of evidence. This is invariably means that he's attempting to distort the financial aid issue into a determinant for recommending a tuition increase. The only relevant variable to be weighed, is the current allotment of state funding for institutional support. The general fund base rate is calculated through a formula that appropriates state funds on a Full-Time Equivalency (FTE) basis. Apparently Cleary was unable to differentiate between the importance of direct institutional support, and the indirect benefits of financial aid assistancL that's currently being used by one-third of Metro's student body. Budget Director Tim Greene had a creative explanation for justifying the tuition increase request that both reporters bought without question. Greene .stated that, "If we get a lot of general fund dollars, we wouldn't push for a tuition increase because the pressure wouldn't be there." This has to be the oldest line in the book when it comes to making the pitch to Trustees and students alike. Reporter Sean-Michael Gilmore really deserves the gullibility prize for his

lacks objectivity'

article on the tuition increase. The reason Metro won't receive a 16 percent increase in general funding, is because our state representatives are still trying to account for Metro's relentless demand to increase all revenue sources. Now this is a mystery Gilmore should direct more effort in solving. Why wasn't last year's 8 percent tuition increase applied to a faculty raise? The reason Metro had to return 2 percent of its base funding for the last two years, was due to a marginal loss of full-time students. Magelli could've compensated for the loss if the budget focused on essential expenditures in the first place. Maybe some of our students found a better deal at UCD. Metro had 7,444 full-time students out of 14,753 last fall, while UCD had 5,241 full-time students out of a total of 10,617. I think a migrational trend is becoming evident. A curious editorial element in Gilmore's article was slipped into the conclusion. The total cost for an education at Metro is relatively equivalent in expense with other comparable institutes. Total costs this semester were $571.50 for a full course load, (providing Mr. Gilmore is willing to graciously allow an aggregate total of tuition and fees to be admissible). Next year the total will be roughly $650 if the Trustees approve all requests for increases. Sincerely, William Anderson MSC Student

Facts Wrong

Editor, In the February 13, 1987 issue of The Metropolitan, I read a full page letter to the editor entitled, "Student Assails Tuition Increases" by Kurt Woodard. Although I have many concerns about a significant amount of his letter, the most glaring error occurs in tlte sixth paragraph. He states "The P.E.R. Department benefited from an investment that almost exceeded 40 percent of the entire student fee budget this year." For Mr. Woodard's information, and the rest of the student body, the PER Department has nothing to do with Athletics, nor receives any student fee fund s. The Athletic Department is a separate entity and had Mr. Woodard done his homework, would have realized this. Sincerely, Dr. Marc Rabinoff Chair & Professor Physical Education & Recreation

Editor, Last week you ran a picture in the back of the paper which showed the head basketball coach having a 34th birthday surprise he will never forget. I have heard of some of the problems you faced with deciding to run the picture, I can only say I think you made a very wise choice. I think the Metropolitan is much like any other paper in that the readers have a right to know and no one should be able to put a damper on what is published. Regardless of the potential implications or the effect on the person(s) involved, I am sure that deciding to run that picture was one of the hardest decisions that you, as the editor, have had to make.

Maroin is maroelous for Metro . . . . . . . . . . . . . . MSC has something no other college in the world has: A promise from Marvin Ham1isch, the famous awardwinning composer, to write the school song. Knowing only this information, the average student, faculty or staff member might get the impression that Hamlisch is altruistic, humanistic and generally a nice guy with an appreciation for Metro and its role as an urban institution. This may be disappointing, but Hamlisch, who was described as "a delightful person, down-to-earth, fun~ ny, witty and personable," was unpleasant during an interview last week and seems uninterested in MelTo. It could be that he's just a typical New Yorker and was misunderstood. Maybe famo:us people get tired of being bothered by reporters. Or maybe its not as important to be nice to The Metropolitan as it is to be nice to The New York Times. Nonetheless, it appears the only reason he's writing Metro's fight song is out of obligation to his "good friend" Sidney Schlenker, owner of the Denver l.'\uggets. Schlenker backed Hamlisch's most recent musical, Smile, which closed on Broadway shortly after opening. Schlenker's involvement in the ordeal began when MSC President Paul Magelli asked for his help to get Ham·

I don't want to sound like an ogre, but if I say yes to one, I will have 400 schools asking me to do it. So why did he change his mind and tell Magelli (over breakfast in Beverly Hills) that he would write the song? . " Basically because the dean (he 'probably means President Magelli) asked me to do it, and Sid Schlenker is a good friend of mine." This contradicts what Magelli said a few weeks ago when he inferred that Hamlisch was writing the song as a gift for Metro's 21st birthday. · Never did Hamlisch mention the school's birthday or Magelli's name.

He did, however, get a good impression of Metro from the information Magelli provided him, he said. "It seems like a good school no one knows about that's doing some good things," he said, although he only had one booklet to base his opinion on. Evidently, one booklet was enough. When asked if he needed more information about the school, Hamlisch replied: "We're not writing an opera here." At the time of the interview, Hamlisch said the song was still in the formative stages at the time of the interview. How long does it take to write a school song? "I have no idea," Hamlisch said. ~I've never written one before. Right

March for Trio planned i I

j

'• '

A student march for educational opportunity, in commemoration of National Trio Day, will b e held on Saturday, Feb. 28, beginning at noon at St. Cajetan's on the Auraria campus and end with a rally on the west steps of the Capitol. The theme of the march is "Step Out For Educational Opportunity." Similar marches will take place across the United States and Puerto Rico Saturday. A panel discussion, describing the opportunities available through the Trio Program to students and local citizens, will also be held Feb. 27 from 3 p.m. until 5 p .m. in room 271 of the Arts Building. National Trio Day was set aside to honor a series of federally funded programs. The Auraria Higher Education Center benefits from the High School Upward Bound, Veterans Upward Bound, Student Support Services, Talent Search and Educational Opportunity Center programs.

The Trio Program was organized in 1965 to provide federal funding for three programs: High School Upward Bound Program, a highly successful, college-based program of academic instruction, individual tutoring and career and personal counseling for low-income, disadvantaged high school students; Student Support services, which provides low-income, disadvantaged and physically handicapped students with workshops and basic skills instruction; Talent Search, an outreach program of information, educational guidance counseling for low income high school students. Rally organizers urge students to participate in the march b ecause President Ronald Reagan's proposed fiscal 1988 budget cuts would eliminate more than 11,561 students from Trio Programs involving low-income, disadvantaged students at area high schools and colleges.

Since Hamlisch is rece1vmg an honorable doctorate degree from .\letro (though Metro doesn't have a graduate school), he will technically be a classmate of all 1987 graduates.

"They're something you appreciate," Don't, however, expect to see Hamlisch at graduation or upcoming alumni events, because chances are he won't be there. "It all depends on my schedule," he said.

Gerhart back in Senate Farmer student government president, Mark Gerhart, who resigned after reportedly charging his textbooks to a student government account, was approved as a student government senator by the Senate last week. Senator Brendan Kelly, also secretary of the senate, said Gerhart's appointment was approved by a vote of 14 to zero with three abstentions. Kelly said Gerhart faced little

opposition from the Senate, and the three abstentions were not necessarily an indication of disapproval. "The three people who abstained pretty much abstain for everything," he said. A stipulation was enforced as part of the vote, Kelly said. "We voted we should not allow him to control any funds ," he said. U Gerhart was impeached instead of resigning, he would have been ineligible for a Senate seat.

Last week, the¡ Senate approved Gerhart as an AS MSC senator and PauJ Kiehn was voted to replace Houx as vice president of the student body. Included in her plans for the future, Houx said, is a workshop involving student government members, faculty

and administration to help the groups deal more effectively with Senate committee problems, communication problems and problems dealing with the campus as a whole. "Right now, I feel that we're getting a n;1.ore ~orkable relationship with the administration and faculty,'' she said. Other projects include writing a column in The Metropolitan, developing a handbook to familiarize new al)d continuing students with the canfpus and creating a new student government calendar. An information board is also being made, which will list the all the committees, boards, task forces and councils that are part of ASMSC. Houx said she hopes students wil1 use this board to find out how they can participate in student government or to find the name of the person they need to contact to solve a problem. Houx also invites students to sit in on student government meetings or to speak on a topic of interest, as long as students check the agenda and meeting protocol. o

Draft registration bill discriminates l

.

by Lisa Arndt A bill that would force state colleges to require draft registration before accepting male students was defeated in the Senate last week, then was voted to be reconsidered. House Bill 1021, approved by the House Feb. 6, states that males born after Dec. 31, 1959, will be ineligible to enroll at any state-supported higher education instutition until they file a statement of registration compliance. In the debate before the bill was approved by the House, the main arguments against it dealt with discrim· ination. "The bill discriminates in three directions," Rep. Richard Bond, DWeld, said. "It discriminates against men, it discriminates against the less affluent, and it discriminates against those who go to college, which is less than half the high school population. Bond said affluent males determined to avoid the draft could attend private colleges or out-of-state colleges. Furthermore, Bond said, the law is .not one to be enforced by the state of Colorado. "Draft registration is a federal law and a federal issue," he said. Rep.William Owens, R-Arapahoe, one of the three sponsors of the bill, said Colorado law should support federal law. "It's our duty to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States.

4

Those who break federal law should not be supported by taxpayers' subsidy," Owens said. "College is a privilege, and draft registration is a duty that should be taken upon," he said. If the Senate approves the bill, scheduled for reconsideration Feb. 27, it will move to the governor's office for his approval or veto. If the Senate defeats the bill, it becomes a dead issue. If the bill passes the Senate and is approved by the governor, publicly funded colleges and universities in the state would face increased expenses, an MSC official said. "It's going to cost money and time. (Metro) would have to do a check on

all those students who are males," Harry Gianneschi, vice president of Institutional Advancement said. "How do you enforce this law? Nothing in the bill gives us money to enforce it," he said. Gianneschi said a similar bill was defeated in New York after the cost of enforcing the law was estimated at $100 million. Aside from the cost, the process of checking the draft-registration status of each male applicant would be cumbersome. "Logistics make it difficult," Gianneschi said, because applicants often apply to more than one college. "There needs to be some kind of process of enforcing the bill without

extending the financial burden," he said. Gianneschi said the bill applies to financial aid as well. "It will be illegal to give financial aid to a non-registered applicant or to let him come into college," he said. Currently, students applying for financial aid must sign a form stating they have registered for the draft or are not required to. Until the bill is passed, however, the school is not required. to check each male student's background. If state-funded higher education facilities refuse to comply? "The state will not provide subsidized education for those institutions," Owens said.

Patriots within ·Americanegate Ameri'ka by Sean-Mlchael Giimore Amerika. Amerika? - sounds sort of Roosian to me, with maybe a little Nazi thrown it. This not so subtle title introduced us to ABC's seven-part miniseries which aired last week on Channel 9. Although there was some saber-rattling and flag waving, the series turned out to be a well-acted drama focusing on subtleties of human behavior rather than the plausibility of an actual Russian take over. But the series did make me think. It made me reflect on what is important about keeping America what it is. What does this country stand for? I know it isn't about selling arms to terrorists to finance a founding fathers non-revolution. I know what the founding fathers had to say. I remember how it felt when I stood in that cold room in the Customs House on 17th Street with a bunch of other pimple-faced, peach-fuzz, scared young men and swore to defend the Constitution of the United States of America - with my life if necessary, against all enemies foreign or domestic. Foreign or domestic. Liberty and justice. Civil liberties and justice for all, like the man said, need to be paid for from time to time bv the blood of patriots.

It's eleven p.m. Do you know where your paper is?

Yes.

That doesn't mean that if we all don't become good little Reaganites, or if we try a solution to a problem that even hints of socialism, then the Roosians will be on our doorstep tomorrow. · Watching teenagers in Amerika getting more and more involved in the underground movement I"?ade me wonder how today's teen-agers feel. Every time I tum on MTV I see some bare-biceped punk wearing a little black glove with no fingers on it telling kids they've "Got to fight." Do they know what they're going to fight for? One group of bozos even has a song with the line "You've got to fight/ for your right/ to party." That line seems a little ludicrous when I remember the '68 Democratic Convention and the dead at Kent State. When I remember being beaten up by jocks for wearing a peace sign and having my hair a little too long. Our efforts to abolish the dress code in high school don't seem like much now. But remember, the right to wear a pink Mohawk has been fought and paid for by those who came before. And that is what America is all about. Forget MTV and pick up the Boss' live album, and check out his rendition of Guthrie's great underground song. Listen to the words. "This land is your land, this land is my land. "This land belongs to you and me." D

Did you watch the TV mini-series AMERIKA? I didn't watch it because it •was too long. Seven episodes? I thought it would be like Red Dawn - everbody bands together to get the bad guy. - Patti Padilla, Accounting

I thought it was boring and really drawn out. I didn't think it was really that big of a deal. Not much of a message to it either. -Chris Dahle, History/Political Science

).

I watched the first half-hour. It didn't live up to my expectations. The highlights of the show were' good but the show was so boring. They cancelled Moonlighting to show it and that really pissed me off. - Carolyn Shearer, Liberal Arts

I didn't watch it at all. I heard it wasn't very good. rm not politically opposed to the show. I wasn't boycotting it or anything. I just thought it would be too boring. - Robert Allen, Undecided

I didn't watch it because I think that there is enough hardships between the U.S. and the Soviet Union and this isn't going to benefit our relationships at all. People are influenced by shows like this. - Melissa Minsk, Human Services
