"BOW I llADE 818,000 FOR COLLEGE BY WORKING WEEKENDS." ...... ~

•

When my friends and I graduated from high school, we all took part-time jobs to pay for college. They ended up in car washes and hamburger ]·01.nts, putti·ng 1·n long hours .( 1°ttl 10r 1 e pay. Not me. My job takes just one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Yet, I'm earning $18,000 for college. Because I joined my local Army National Guard. They're the people who help our state during emergencies like hurricanes and floods. They're also an important part of our country's military defense. So, since I'm helping them do such an important job, they're helping me make it through school.

As soon as I finished Advanced Training, the Guard gave me a cash bonus of $2,000. Then, under the New GI Bill, I'm getting another $5,000 for tuition and books. Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They'll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I'm in the Guard. And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back-up to $1,500 a year, plus interest. It all adds up to $18,000-ormore -for college for just a little of my time. And that's a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you. ·THE GUARD'CAN HELP PUT YOU THROUGH COLLEGE, TOO.

Marching for peace isn't cheap by Bob Haas

·•'

Dale Malleck proudly displays community recognition award.

A fella' like Dale Malleck doesn't come around too often. And he's the kind of a fella' who grows on you. · He tells stories as down home as overalls and plaid shirts; he delights in the human quality in people; his humor is sprinkled with a cantankerous wit. His eyes fill with tears when he talks about the very best in people, they flash anger when he describes the worst. Like Hemingway's famous fisherman in The Old Man and The Sea, Malleck projects little of himself; he is revealed by the depths of his perceptions. "He's a native genius," said Bill Rhodes, retired MSC professor of philosophy. Malleck enrolled in college three years ago at the age of 67.

"He caught fire in one of my classes," Rhodes said. "He had no idea how intelligent he was. I think he's a natural genius." Rhodes and MSC english professor Ed Schenck have taken it upon themselves to help Malleck raise the $2,500 he needs to participate in a march for . nuclear disarmament taking place this summer in the Soviet Union. Rhodes has personally committed to paying Malleck's expenses to and from Washington, D.C . . "Dale is an impressive man," Schenck said. "His dedication to peace . .. he is a 70-year-young man. Everytime I meet with him he impresses me more and more as a human being." "This man is one of the genuinely good people I've ever met in my life," Rhodes said. "He told me, 'I don't know how to go to people and ask them for money.' He said, 'I guess I'll have to learn how.' "

It was then that Rhodes decided to help out. "He's an extremely modest man," Rhodes said~ Rhodes and Schenck plan to submit a proposal of support to their Kiwanis Club, and they have approached MSC President Paul Magelli for the same reason. Though Magelli hasn't yet met with Malleck, he is confident the college will make a contribution, in some capacity, to Malleck's peace seeking march. "He sounds like an interesting man," Magelli said. "This is the kind of thing we like to get involv~d with. I know we'll do something to help him out." Though Rhodes believes in Malleck's goal of nuclear disarmament, he also believes in Dale Malleck. 'Td probably support him if he wanted to sell gladiola bulbs in Thailand," Rhodes said. "He's just that good of a person.''

destruction." Malleck now gives talks to "schools, churches, any group that is interested, 111 talk to." He hopes to ·gain perspective from his walk in Russia, hopes to "learn something about the other side. "I once had a guy tell me 'the only good red is a dead red.' This guy believed Russians were required to rape nuns. Their government has taught them to hate us, and our government has taught us to hate Russians, and that's the biggest crime, teaching man to hate his own species. "I don't get into politics much," Malleck says. "Both our governments are crooked as hell. We're in as many places we don't belong as they are. In my opinion," he says, "there isn't a government in the world that's doing justice to its own people." This is why Malleck favors grassroots activities. He is unwavering in his belief about the power of the individual. "The people can change it," he says. He carries with him a quote from Dwight Eisenhower: Controlled, universal disarmament is the imperative of our time. The demand for it by the hundreds of millions will, I hope, become so universal and so ·insistant that no government, anywhere, can withstand it. Malleck calls nonsense the theory that nuclear weapons act as a deterrent to war. "In the first place," he says, "an accident is what will start it. An accident or a nut. They have to be gotten rid of," he says. . The 1986 Great Peace March sputtered and temporarily died in the California desert. Malleck tells the story with fondness and pride.

"We were just outside of Barstow, California, when the Pro-Peace fellow (original organizers of the march) came out and said it was over, the money was gone. He told everyone to go ·home. Well, there we were, broke in the desert." Some of the marchers refused to quit, refused to believe the walk was over, so they re-organized, and created Peace-City. "We bought the equipment from the creditors," Malleck says. "That's when I started donating half of my social security check (his only form of income) to help out." Malleck is full of stories about people helping out along the way. The people of Clairmont, California opened their churches, schools and homes to the marchers after the town refused to allow them to camp out. A school teacher there offered her house to Malleck and others. She fed.them, quietly did their laundry while they slept dur~ ing the night, and then drove out to the c>desert three times the next day with a 0 ~ carload of food. "O ·~ "She was really something," Malleck 0 says. "I still get emotional talking about >.a her. 0 "We were marching through some 0 .c town in Iowa, I don't remember which a. one.

High flying dreams ·turn into bad memories by David Sneed I got shipped off to Military School in '84. I was 17 and my mom was still making the executive decisions. I had sluffed my way through two private institutions, and displayed a basic willingness to accept a normal childhood. That was the ticket. I got sent to a spot in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of kids like myself who couldn't make it anywhere else. None of us was specially qualified - just run of the mill losers who had grabbed the last straw, and this was it. Generally speaking, no one wanted to be there except the gung-ho junkies who just didn't fit into society and who welcomed the idea of isolation. I was trying not to seem lost and the military was the perfect cover-up. The first day we got there they shaved our heads and made us march in single file and called us scum every chance they got. It didn't let up for a year. After a while it didn't matter what they called us or how they made us feel because we were leaning on each other. There.was no need for secrets after I saw a guy break down, babbling about how much he missed his girl back home and how much he hated being there. I knew where he

was at because I was there with him. In the year and a half that I spent there a lot of my good friends didn't make it. Some were drummed out in front of the corps for lying to an officer about why they weren't at their desk during study hall, while others were caught in the act of smoking dope behind their locker door. Whatever the reason, a part of us died when they left. We just wanted to tuck our tails between our legs. Somehow we all belonged there. We were the only ones who could understand each other. I graduated in '85. The other day I was driving out of a Bol!lder parking lot when I ~ received a good little dose of the ol' ~ be all you can be.

feet. Had his voice cracked we would have both been embarrassed. I kind of felt bad for him because in conforming so much he had involuntarily given up his right to be human. I could see myself - the scared kid, answering in the proper way, afraid to make a mistake.

Vasions of the right stuff may be military nightmares. they had made any sensitivities, any apparent child-like qualities or insecurities sober up.

We did things in the same way as the P.R. man, and marched to the same cadence. Our PR man was about done vomiting up all the military facts "told by an idiot signifying nothing." He said the "flight line is usually packed by now." Somehow I was still the hopeful kid marvelling that the last package under the tree was something other than underwear or dress socks. But, jets or no jets, I was sick of the memories coming back to me. My notebook was empty and all this time Mcintyre had been busy photographing the A-7 aircraft stationed on the base. We were abrubtly handed over to the publicity man and the base after our PR man announced he had a meeting to go to. That was a mistake - we should have left while we had a chance. This new guy had one of those sturdy million dollar smiles that persists in all kinds of weather. He was trying to help another photographer get the right angle to capture a high school iacrosse team in front of an A-7. Mcintyre and I both went over and introduced ourselves. I thought he

might be able to contribute something useful to my struggling story. All he could talk about was running a recruitment ad in The Metropollitan and how great the new G.I. bill was. He reminded me of the Commandant of Cadets. Whenever your folks would come down for Homecoming or Graduation he would tell them what a great kid you were. He might even pose long enough for your folks to catch a quick picture. The only other time you talked to him was if you got caught telling a superior what he could do with it or generally . degrading the military name. Pretty soon our publicity man hopped on the school bus with the rest of the team oblivious to the fact . that we didn't have a ride back to our cars. After a good deal of walking, compounded by a bad attitude, we found a security guard. I told him the story and he was kind enough to give us a ride. His attitude was almost one of apology :_ trying to clear himself of any affiliation to the rest of the guys trooping around the base. He was like a lot of our teachers, most of whom weren't military, who tried to steer free of titles and mannerisms, who tried to bring us back to home base - to ourselves or to the person under the facade. They didn't want to be framed in the same pigpen with the guys who were trying to make our lives miserable. The yellow brick road and the characters I met along the way haven't changed much. Like a jet pilot taking advantage of Mach 2, or Dorothy clicking her heels, I got in my car and left it all behind. D

Magelli pulls students inside for pizza party by Bob Haas and Robert Davis They don't call them co-eds anymor.e, and hippies are not in vogue, but wi.th or without new labels, students on a college campus remain pretty much the same. ·Given an afternoon filled with sun.shine and the carefree calling of healthy skylarking, students' activities on the Auraria campus run a gamut as varied as themselves. On the steps of the P.E. building, focks play hacky-sack in athletic sweats and muscle tee-shirts; the ball bounces off of tight-laced high-tops. Across the street near the bookstore, hippies play frisbee in bare-feet and cut-offs, sunning their chests, cigarettes in hand. Co-eds hang out on the patio of the Mission, hang balloons from their toes and smile behind sunglasses; they flirt in their short pants and laugh in their youth. April 22, just such a sunny, spring semester day, 60 or 70 Metro students accepted the invitation of their president to lunch on pizza and discuss their college. Paul Magelli offered thick crust Rocky Rococo pizza and an informal state-of-the-college update to a polite and interested crowd of students who could have been doing any one of a dozen other things.

Senators just flies in the ointment Question: How many student senators does it take to screw up a college? Answer: More than can be impeached, driven away or graduate. Ifs almost time to fill the 25 senate spots again. But don't think there will be any decisions to be made by voters. There's no need to even show up. Everyone who enters the race will get in - just like last year and the year before and the year before and so on. There will be two students on the ballot for Senate and four candidates for president/vice-president. The six are the only students who have filed by deadline and meet the academic requirements. Think of as many write-in names as you can and you probably won't come up with 25. Without choices, a democracy will _d rown in its own . inefficiency. Such is our student government. We don't need 25 senators. There are never enough students running to fill the 25 spots. Everybody who signs up, wins. Some who don't even sign up, win. This turns the voting process into an ego-boosting rubber stamp for those who seek student-office. How can we expect more than mediocrity from these "leaders?" For years and years - at least 15 of Metro's 21 years - students have only had to show up in the office of student government to become a senator. Those who have filed an Intent to Run Form have been rewarded with hundreds of supporting votes because their names actually appear on the machine. Those who have been selected as write-in candidates have been elected by as few as two pen-wielding supporters. The hundreds of approving votes come from those who care enough to vote, but have no alternatives to consider. Indeed, voting is a nice gesture by concerned students, but when there are no. choices, why vote? The polling booths have only 'Yes' levers by the can-

didates' names. There is no way to express displeasure over the guy who misrepresented us last year or has a bad record for some other reason. In other elections, a voter can pick the opponent to eliminate the lessor of the two candidates. At Metro, you can refuse to vote for somebody, but if he has at least one admirer, he's in. What a democracy. With the lack of choice comes the lack of quality. Is there any wonder we can't get any thoughtful representation from our student leaders when we put no thought into selecting them? Like a swarm of pests, student government has become an accepted part of the picnic. We're used to reading about their blunders, mismanagement of our money and general sloppy business proceedures. Why! Why not spray the little bastards and make them go away? The "representation" they've provided us has only been embarrassing this year. Everytime we've dealt with these kids we've come away wondering why they can't act professionally. Why can't they think about the students first and themselves second? Maybe becasue they weren't selected with any thought. Maybe because we don't demand it. When Metro students vote they have fewer choices than there are vacancies. Voting is just a ritual that inflates senators' egos and gets them off to a bad start. We just allow anybody who signs up to "represent" us. So why do we flock to the polls? There's little that the thoughtful voter, the one who cares about fees and college direction and so on, can do . We're stuck with the pests and there's little doubt they'll do anything other than buzz around our necks and suck away more of our student fees. It just leaves one question: How many students does it take to demand a change in a lazy student government? Answer: Nobody cares? -RMD

Idiot dialectic has struck again. This time it's infecting the debate about Colorado's now-infamous "Make My Day" law. The law was passed in 1985 to clarify the rules of engagement between homeowners and intruders by allowing homeowners to defend themselves with deadly force without fear of prosecution when three factors are present: •There is unlawful entry • Homeowner reasonably believes intruder will commit a crime • The intruder poses the slightest physical threat Sounds simple, doesn't it? And unless you're a burglar or a totalitarian, it sounds reasonable. Enter David Guenther. In April 1986, he shot two unarmed people on his front lawn, and another on his doorstep as the man tried to drag Guenther's wife Pam through the front door. The woman on the lawn died; the two men survived. Guenther claimed he shot in self-defense. He was arrested anyway - but Adams County Judge Philip

Roan released him without charges, citing the Make My Day law. Last month, Guenther allegedly shot and killed his wife, and wounded her companion, outside an Adams County restaurant. He is now being held in jail on a charge of murder. . · Outside the jail, another charge is being made. In the media and on the floor of the state Senate, otherwise intelligent people are declaring that if it hadn't been for Make My Day, Pam Guenther would be alive today -so the law should be repealed. Denver Post political editor Carl Miller, for example, argued in his column that the Guenther case is proof positive that Make My Day is bad law. State senator Martha Ezzard claimed on the floor of the Senate during her repeal efforts this week that "it's the immunity from prosecution section that prevents the district attorney in a case such as Guenther - I hate to use that case but it's on everybody's mind - from bringing that person to justice even if there is evidence that the person inside the house is the aggressor." But let's look at the law. It applies only to cases involving intruders who make unlawful entries - and

Make my dayI trom page 1 under even the broadest interpretation of MMD, only the man who dragged Pam Guenther through her front door could be construed as being a legitimate target. This means that, while David Guenther was maybe justified in shooting the man on the front step, he should definitely have been jailed and charged with attempted murder for shooting the man on his lawn, and second degree murder for killing the woman. Make My Day, in other words, is not legitimately at issue in the Guenther case. That I udge Philip made it such is proof of his intellectual or moral bankruptcy and warning that he should be removed immediately from the bench. Face it, if he's so stupid he can'tunderstand the difference between an intruder and someone standing in a front yard, then he shouldn't be allowed to play with sharp objects, much less sit in judgment over free citizens. If I recall correctly, though, Judge Roan stated in the press that he just didn't like the law and was turning Guenther loose so that it could be challenged by the Supreme Court. Think about that: Philip Roan turned a killer loose o~ the streets to further his argument in a cozy little legal dispute he was having with his colleagues. This is the point at which the dialectic should be directed. · Instead of mindlessly whining and sniveling about MMD, Carl and Martha and all those senators who voted with her should sit back from the fight for a minute and reflect on what part they may have played in creating a system that allows a judge to deny justice to three people and perhaps cause the death of a fourth so he could make a goddamn point about the law.

'Rat' inappropriate metaphor ' Editor, In the most recent edition of The Metropolitan was an article featuring the "Rat" of ASMSC. Degrading as this may seem, the "Rat" was me. Mr. Kelly had most assuredly abused the privilege of creating the agenda for the ASMSC Senate meeting on April 15. The agenda Item III E. "The 'Rat' amongst us." This phrase was way out of line. I, as the malaprop "Rat," was exercising my right b y going to The Metropolitan with my opinion of what happened during the Senate meeting on April 1, 1987. If Mr. Kelly could not handle the pressure presented by The Metropolitan and other interested students brought about by his motion to amend the ASMSC 1987-88 Annual Budget to include pay for ASMSC Senators, then he should not have done so. I do not support the payment of ASMSC Senators. This is both because of tradition (they have never been paid in the past) and because there is not enough work that the ASMSC Senators do to warrant being paid. Granted ASUCD pays their Senators, but this has been the cause of major funding difficulties in the past. We the AS MSC Senate in my opinion do not do things to benefit students. In order for this to happen, an attitude change in the Senate is necessary - not a compensation change. I would encourage everyone - regular students as well as senators to attack publicly the issue that they do not agree with. I was the only one to publicly criticize the senator payment issue - Is this the just reward for such an outcry? Sincerely, Mark W. Gerhart

New image first task for new government by Lisa Arndt Improving the image of student government is the primary goal of the first students to announce their candidacy for president and vice president of student government. "There is such a negative image out there right now toward out student government," Martin Norton, presidential candidate said. "The problem is communication - or Jack of it." Norton said he hopes to improve communication with the administration, the student body and Auraria officials. "We need to have, as students, more input," he said. "The only voice (the . students) reaHy have is their student Âˇ government." KeHy Martin, his vice-presidential running mate, agreed. â&#x20AC;˘ "We need to improve the image (of

student government) and, more people will want to participate," she said. Several scandals, the impeachment of the president and the high turnover of senators are responsible for the poor image, Martin said, Both candidates said they hope to build a stronger Senate. "We need to get the senators to know each other. We need to work together as a team," Martin said. "We need to give them the idea that they are doing something." Norton said part of his plan to increase communication is to build a better relationship with The Metropolitan than the current administration has. "There should be a direct line between student government and The Metropolitan," he said. "Dealing with the paper doesn't have to be a nasty ordeal.'' Scandals under his administration would be non-existent, Norton said.

"Hopefully, there would be no need to worry about it," he said. "We want everything dut in the open.'' Norton said he is not currently a member of student government, but he "comes from the era of activism," which will assist him in being a good political leader. In regard to the issue of senator apathy, Martin, who has been a senator since February, said paying the senators is not the answer. "I personally don't think a senator needs to be paid," she said, and there's a possibility "that they would do it just for the money." Norton said when the senators voted to pay themselves earlier this month, it was not a good political move. "It didn't improve the image of the Senate any, did it," he said. Norton said he is opposed to paying senators unless the pay level coincided D with the participation level.

"I don't understand why they need so many reps other than there are a lot of college committees to cover," Ortega said. "It's like the U.S. government, they have a rhyme and reason to having their number." Student government does the best it can with the people it gets, Ortega said. While she holds "four or five" student government leaders in high esteem, others have the right ideas but lack the tools necessary to accomplish their goals, she said. "I see other senators who want to affect a change but they don't know where to get the information. They don't know where those doors are," Ortega said. Ortega said she wants all students to know about the elections scheduled for May 4 -6. Too often, Ortega said, students enter the race on a whim or don't bother entering and get a few write-in votes. "I just think any student who wants to run should have the time," Ortega said. "I think they should be a lot more serious before going into that office.'' D

SACAB representati

SACAB: Education without representation by Lisa Arndt Auraria students currently have no representation to the Auraria Board, as internal strife and external conflicts have prevented the student advisory committee from meeting for four weeks. In a letter to Morgan Smith, executive director of Auraria, the Community College of Denver representatives to the Student Advisory Committee to the Auraria Board (SACAB) said unless the Auraria Board of Directors reforms the committee - fragmented by recent accusations of bias in the handling of last month's student referendum - the representatives will resign and CCD will withdraw support for SACAB. When told of the letter, but before he read it, Smith said the best thing to do is finish the year with SACAB as it is. "Frankly, I think that with the end of the school year, the best thing would be to start fresh next year," he said. "There are no new issues to advise (the Auraria Board) on anyway." After reading _the letter, Smith said SACAB is worth resurrecting. "I would hope I could sit down with all of them and make SACAB workable again," he said.· In the letter, CCD SACAB members Mark Johnson and Matt Tange said SACAB is not adequately representing the students and changes are necessary. "We feel that despite our best efforts to the contrary, SACAB has disregarded the rights of both the institutions and the student bodies," the letter stated. "By disregarding these rights, the committee is no longer representative of the students of the three institutions." The CCD representatives requested the help of the Auraria Board of Directors in five areas: • Removal of Metro's representatives to SACAB. • Reappointment of new MSC representatives. • Enforcement of SACAB byJaws. • Review and revision of bylaws

to avoid similar problems in the future. • Informing the Auraria Board of ezjs_ting conditions. "If we cannot enlist your support in our attempt to correct these conditions forthwith,'' the letter stated, "we feel we have no other choice than to tender our resignations and withdraw the support for SACAB b y the CCD Student Representative Council." The conflicts began after a referendum to expand the Physical Education building failed. MSC student government President Gina Houx accused SACAB, which served as the election commission, of bias, and removed Gil Perea and Ben Boltz from their posi. tions as Metro's SACAB representatives. SACAB, however, decided that only SACAB can remove its members, and refused to recognize Houx's new SACAB appointees. Perea said the matter was settled by the state attorney general, who said SACAB's bylaws superceded MSC student government's. "SACAB supercedes any other mediocre entity that claims to have the same authority," he said. SACAB has not settled the PereaBoltz matter, though, because it has failed to reach quorum for four meetings in a row. When asked if SACAB members were boycotting the meetings, Perea said, "I don't know." Houx said the entire situation is detrimental to SACAB. "It's sad that they have nullified SACAB," she said of Perea and Boltz. She said she had hoped the personnel situation would have been resolved · much sooner. "One of the people I appointed (to j replace Perea and Boltz) was interested in the position for next year. He could have used the experience," said Houx, who has been working to stabilize student government since the forced resignation of its president last January. "Now, be isn't even interested in ,running for next year,'' she said. D

Metropolitan State College is receiv... ing a $100,000 grant from the Adolph Coors Company to fund a program that encourages minority students to continue their high school education and prepare for college. The grant will be used to underwrite the initial operating cost of the Ambassadors to the Schools Program, a joint effort between MSC, Coors and Denver Public Schools. The program will help identify, assist and encourage minority students thought to hav~ college ability, but who are of ten passed over by high school counselors who must spend time with students actively seeking college enrollment. The grant, $50,000 a year for two years, is considerably less than the amount the program originally called for. Metro initially asked Coors for $196,000 a year for four years. Although Coors is unable to fund the entire amount, the company was willing to pay for the starting operational costs of the program, Joe Fuentes of Coors corporate communications, said. "The program is right in line with (Coors') corporate strategies - our continued commitment to higher education as well as our on-going commitment to minority communities," Fuentes said. Harry Gianneschi, vice president of

Institutional Advancement, called the Jgrant ·a "leadership gift" because it gives MSC the "go ahead" to begin the program in the fall of 1987. Although $150,000 to $175,000 a year will eventually be needed, the $50,000 from Coors is enough to start the program. "We didn't want to begin the pro-• gram . . . or make a commitment to these high school students until we were sure of the funding," Gianneschi said. Although the rest of the funding will have to come from the local business., community, Gianneschi said he was hopeful. "We have already contacted Mountain Bell and Coca-Cola," he said. The Denver Public School System cut $20,000 a year off the program costs by providing teachers to help at no cost.~ : The original budget called for MSC to tpay DPS teachers working with the ·program. • "We (DPS) are very pleased to be a part of this program," Bill Rosser, supervisor of DPS community affairs, • said. The program and funding from Coors indicates the kind of joint effort between the public and private sector needed to further education in this country, Rosser said. "MSC should be congratulated for , their leadership and vision in putting this program together," he said. 0

By the time you finish reading this story, approximately 44 burglaries, 36 assaults and one rape will have occurred in the United States. These and other gruesome statistics will be highlighted during local recognition of the 1987 Natjonal Victim Rights Week, April 26 to May 2. The week will start with a candlelight vigil to be held on the west steps of the state capitol on Sunday, April 26 at7:30 p.m. Speakers at the vigil will include Gov. Roy Romer, Mayor Federico Pena and Denver District Attorney Norm Early. A scroll will be provided on which to post names and pictures of victims. Wednesday, April 29, Metro State's Institute for Women's Studies and Services will sponsor talks by Professor Bernie DiCoke and Mary Loring, r.o-fonnrler of Ending Violen·c e Effectiyely (EVE). Both will speak on the subject of ' "Self Protection Through an Assertive Image." DiCoke, who teaches a class at Metro called Rational Assertiveness Training, will discuss ways people ·can avoid becoming victims. "My presentation will teach how to be assertive in such a way as to decrease the chance of victimization. Things that would be advantageous in averting an attack," DiCoke said.

She said she will address men as well as women and will concentrate on making the listeners become aware of" their self-esteem. "Women need to take charge of their lives, men do too," she said. "Selfesteem is the key issue to any problem. We all have personal power and it's personal power to recognize our self• esteem." Loring, a certified instructor in self protection, will speak in the second half of the program. "Women should be finding positive rather than restrictive ways to keep themselves safe," she said. "In the past"' they were told 'Don't do this and don't do that.' Now they're learning how to plan for these situations." Loring said she'll also include advice such as not giving personal information out and hands-on protection'# techniques. · · Men who listen to Loring's talk will also be addressed. "I'll talk to whoever's there. Men's responsibility is for intervention and in attitudes toward women. And all of us have a responsibility to confront thes~ attitudes," Loring said. The week will be recognized statewide and the theme will be: "Victimization, A Common Bond."

Freshman Year program gets tutored .

by Debra Schluter J

The topic of the lecture was student retention, but as the visiting director of the nationally acclaimed freshman seminar program at the University of South Carolina noted in his lighthearted opening remarks last Friday, ,, beautiful weather and the advent of the weekend seemed to have affected Metropolitan State College's faculty retention as well. By 2 p.m., less than 30 people had gathered in the Student Center to hear ..... John Gardner, the director of USC's award-winning University 101 program, speak on "Strategies for Improving the Freshman Year Experience." Gardner is recognized for his expertise in developing orientation/seminar courses designed to help beginning " college students successfully adjust to . higher education. For many, the transition is difficult. Recent studies show that nationwide, 60 percent of all college freshmen will drop out after two years, Gardner said. The figure may be even higher at .._ MSC. As many as 75 percent of the college's freshmen are no longer enrolled after 2 years, according to a MSC Freshman Year grant proposal. Gardner was on campus Friday, and most of SaturdaY, consulting with , administrators, and offering advice and support to the director, teachers and students of Metropolitan State College's Freshman Year program.

students have, Gardner said. The assumption is that it will all fall into place. But student assimilation should not be left up to chance, he said. "Students form their attitutes toward college within the first six to eight weeks,'' he said. "Studies have proven that they decide whether to stay or leave by then." Gardner, however, does not see retention as the primary goal of a freshman year program, but more as a positive side-effect. The way to do that is to prepare students for it. Develop a program that can be marketed in advance, and give potential recruits a catalog that does not misrepresent the institution. Offer courses on coping with college, and give credit for it, he said. "Students should want to come here, and then should be re-sold when they · get here,'' Gardner said. Train teachers willing to work with freshmen and reward them for it Gardner said. And expand academi~ advising. "If you can provide just one adult who cares," Gardner said, "it may be just enough to break the PCP (parking lot-classroom-parking lot) Syndrome, and students will develop a commitment to the academic cominunity." Gardner's suggestions support MSC Freshman Year Director David Moore's assertion that the reasons for high first year dropout rates are not always academic.

"I am not here to give answers," Gardner said of his evaluation of MSC's year-old program. 'Tm here to ask questions." The questions Gardner asked were good ones, MSC President Paul Magelli said. "He sharpened the issues, and helped us focus on a number of areas where we had questions." · Although Gardner was hesitant to provide immediate suggestions, he commented that MSC's Freshman Year program, although small, was an honest beginning. Faculty training for those involved with the program would be a plus and the college's orientation and advising programs were too brief and inadequate, he said. Support from top administrators and a $40,000-plus grant in January from the Colorado Commission on Higher Education boded well for the program, Gardner added. A written report of his evaluation is expected in about four weeks. Although Gardner's lecture centered on how not to design a freshman year program, and his points were often illustrated with his own once halftragic, but now almost laughable freshman year experiences, Gardner never lost sight of the serious issues of how MSC can improve the retention of freshman students by makmg their initial college experience a positive, supportive one. The freshman year, for better or worse, is an experience that all college

"Unrealistic or unclear goals, lack of motivation or commitment, and lack of involvement or integration into the college. environment are the primary reasons," Moore said.

Two engineering programs cut by CCHE

by Shelly Barr

The Colorado Commission on Higher Education's decision to discontinue two MSC programs has sparked determination in a faculty member who said he will advertise to recruit student majors, if necessary. ,. Last June, the CCHE slapped the Electrical Engineering Technology department with a resolute "program discontinuance" decision for Industrial Marketing and Technical Management. Technical Management is a program that emphasizes technical proficiency 1 in combination with strong managerial skills. Industrial Marketing trains students in a:ll areas of the industrial process from designing to selling. The programs will be phased out over four years, according to the sys.._ tern established by the board two years ago. In effect, the EET programs will not die out until 1990 under this decision, said Tobin Barrozo, vice president of Academic Affairs.

semester while he works full-time. Row has also been at MSC since the college's first days and looks to graduate in another seven or eight semesters, Temmer said._ However, Barrozo said, all current majors will receive their respective degrees at the end of their academic coursework. And those students who have not yet declared themselves majors in either

of the two programs, but decide later to do so, will be able to receive either degree through a contract major, Barrozo said. A contract major is not as favorable, Barrozo said, because it requires considerable one-on-one consultation with the faculty from the department. Also considered for discontinuance this year were Philosophy, Modern Languages, Social Work and Afro-

American Studies, Barrozo said. None of these programs were discontinued, Barrozo said, because of arguments from the college that although the programs may be low in majors, MSC is a comprehensive school and the programs are used for other than major purposes. Marketing and Technical Management, however, were not saved by such arguments. D

But, Temmer said, he will fight for a reconsideration by prooing student interest in his ""'v

programs ~ an endeav(W in which an ad or two may prove helpful.

The number of majors is used as an • indication of popularity by the CCHE in the decision to cut a program, Barrozo said. Too few majors, he said, demonstrates inefficient use of tax dollars. Currently, there are 41 students who have filled out graduation agreements • for Technical Management. Meanwhile, only 10 students have declared themselves majors in Industrial Marketing, Harry Temmer, program coordinator .said. But, Temmer said, he will fight for a :J reconsideration from the CCHE by proving student interest in his programs - an endeavor in which an ad or two may prove helpful. Another criterion used by the board in Program Discontinuance is the number of recent graduates from the program. Approximately 90 percent of Temmer's students are part-time, he said, and the number of graduates is an unfair gauge. Among the majors in Industrial Marketing is Arvel Brewer, an MSC student since 1966. Brewer hopes to graduate from the program next month, Temmer said. Similarly, Lee Row, a Technical Management major, takes one course a

Metro profs go to jail, offer opportunity, by Lucy Stolzenburg

Four times a week, Metro takes education off campus to classrooms that give new meaning to the term nontraditional student. Acres of grassland isolate the building, a bull's eye in a sea of southwest Denver suburban homes. The architecture is distinctly classical government - solid, cement and built to last, dated by a hint of 1930s art deco in the fine lines of the windows. Inside, the halls look like a model public school. The linoleum floors gleam, the cement-block walls sport fresh paint and bulletin boards burst with messages and construction paper displays. The courtyards would put Evergreen Lawns to shame. But the buildin~·s square lines bump against coils of shiny barbed wire, the windows hide behind metal bars and every door opened must be unlocked, then locked again. For the last five years, Metro has held the contract to teach college courses at the Englewood Federal Correctional Institution, a men's medium security prison. The guards don't carry weapons, nor do they man the guard towers. It isn't Alcatraz, but it isn't the Fairmo.nt either. The inmates are forgers, robbers, counterfeiters, drug dealers, immigration violators, murderers, rapists and kidnappers. They sleep dormitory style and can earn their own room through good behavior or a trip to the cell block by violating the rules. Inmates are offered 10 college courses a year, English as a Second Language and educational testing through Metro's Extended Campus Credit Program. Students must meet the same requirements as any Metro applicant and tuition and books are covered by the Department of Justice. Metro instructors have taught more than 600 inmates, according to John

Englewood Federal COtTectional Institution is Metro's Southwest Classroom Montgomery, associate director of the Extended Campus Program. Education was initially mandated under the Youth Corrections Act for offenders 18-26 years old, but the aging of America has changed prison demographics as well, and the Englewood program serves inmates up to 35 years old. Montgomery offers a variety of courses from all departments and says he tries to be sensitive to the prison's racial mix by recruiting minority instructors. Encouraging professors to teach at the prison is not difficult. "They don't quite know what to

expect, but they want a different experience. There's also a sense of altruism," Montgomery says. He adds with a laugh, "I can't get them to teach at the Metro South; it's too white-middleclass." Montgomery says he usually gets a few calls from nervous instructors at the beginning of a semester, but he wants them to voice their reservations rather than stay silent. No teachers have been in danger, but a riot closed the prison for a few days five years ago and a short head count can cancel classes. "The orientation the prison puts you through definitely gets your attention," Montgomery says. "But once the instructors start teaching, it's OK." About 100 inmates register for classes every semester, but attrition is high. Students transfer to other federal prisons, are released or find the coursework too intimidating. A class starting with 30 students will drop to 15 and a class of 15 can dwindle to three. But professors say that those who stay are diligent students. Frank Walsh teaches Current Social Issues on Thursday nights and has brought his Metro classes to the prison to sit side by side with inmates. The inmates, he says, give to him as much as he gives as a teacher. Walsh has a habit of working late at night, but Thursday nights run especially late because of the energy he gleans from his involvement with the prisoners. His son accompanied him one night and said the students were so willing to share their knowledge that the atmosphere was almost like a revi~--··-

val church service of call and response. "The general theme among instructors is that the inmates are incredibly enthusiastic," Montgomery says. Three summers ago, Patty Hansen taught yoga to a class of 19 men. She refused to wear a body alarm because • she felt safe with her students. 'Tm not naive, but I tried to be open," Hansen says. "I wore sweats at first, but at some point I knew I had to wear leotards to demonstrate the yoga postures." • Her dress never created a problem. It became just another yoga class, except the men progressed faster than · any class she's taught. "In 10 weeks I've never seen guys loosen up the way they did," Hansen says..."At first they were like steel I" rods. They are also unfailingly polite. Alan Freeman taught Introduction to Human Geography and lost most of his students to indoor soccer season. One of the drop-outs was a Venezuelan, drug dealer whose wardrobe included " T-shirts tom and resewn tighter to accentuate his muscles. Freeman was surprised when the man apologized for missing class, eXplaining that soccer was an important sport in his country. "I have never once had a Metro stu- •· dent come and apologize for missing a class," Freeman says. Most instructors say the men are polite because the instructors are among the few links to the outside world. Some have said the politeness is just a con and the college courses look good to the parole board, but classes _ ...............

CdUcational second chance to criminals are no guarantee parole will be granted (see sidebar). Jerry Treadway is teaching Abnormal Psychology to 10 men, of whom som~.were students in a class he taught in the Fall. Treadway stands at a · blackboard, explaining various forms "'# of schizophrenia and fielding questions from the class. Many of the men are looking through their notes or checking the text. The questions whizzing around the room are probably still baffling medical ~ researchers after years of study. Treadway laughs at one point and admits he's stumped too. "I like their candor," Treadway says later. "They're more willing to ask questions that are in the heads of traditional students, but who won't ask -~ them for whatever reason. H they have a question, they'll ask it." At the break, most of the men say they've had college courses before and will continue when they're released. One student needs only 26 hours to >- graduate with a degree in business. ln the prison system, these men are the exception rather than the rule of the 450 men who reside at the Englewood FCI. Forty-three percent of the inmates have a tenth grade education or less; only 29 percent have graduated from high school. Illiteracy is connected to crime, says FCI Supervisor of Education Bob Hood, because if you can't fill out forms and read instructions, life in .• mainstream America is tough. But he admits higher education may contribute to a more intelligent criminal. Between 30 and 60 percent of the men will commit crimes again after "

their release. The best the system can do, says Hood, is give them a chance. "The men can never complain that we didn't give ·them the best shot," Hood says. "They can get a taste of college and if they can't hack it, they won't waste their time later." The figures on students continuing college are difficult to track, Hood says, because inmates in the federal system are released in every state and many foreign countries. The greatest benefit from all the education pro.grams-ESL, GED, Vo-Techandcollege classes - is a lower incidence of disturbances and violations within the prison. Montgomery credits Hood with stabilizing the college program at Englewood FCI, where he was named Employee of the Year in 1986. Hood's dedication may come from his experience in the Texas prison system where education has a low priority. The Texas prisons are notoriously overcrowded and corrupt and a federal mandate to reform won them a cover story in Newsweek last summer. Hood says Texas prisons were agriclutural work-based, punitive and had few education programs. They were also violent institutions where homosexuality, murder and drug abuse were common. "By putting money into education programs, we're putting less money into walls and barbed wire," Hood says. America's crime rate is the highest in the free world. Researchers claim no pat answers, but do cite grave differences between rich and poor, cultural discrimination, maturity and high drop out rates.

Students at the Englewood FCI go to college for most of the same reasons Metro students attend the Auraria Campus. The average felon makes $6, 700 a year after relaease, according to Hugh DeWig, who teaches the pre-release program at Englewood and is employed under the MSC contract. Those. figures, he says, program people right back into prison. Prisoners usually return to their old neighborhoods and fall back into old habits. "They're seeking the same solutions we are," DeWig says, "they just have more handicaps." But to make a break with crime, the responsibility ultimately lies with the individual. "In the final analysis, you've got to say enough is enough," DeWig says. Students at the Englewood FCI go to college for most of the same reasons

Metro students attend the Auraria campus: a shot at higher paying jobs, the opportunity to learn new skills and increase their self-esteem, the courses look good on a resume and impress superiors or maybe the classes just fill some spare time. Like the rest of us, they get by the best they know how. John Montgomery instructed a psychology course five years ago at the prison and at the end of the semester he asked his students how their perceptions had changed. And then they asked him how his perceptions had changed. "I told them I couldn't drive past this building anymore without knowing that there were people in here." D

·Student shines, Parole Board unimpressed Frank Whispell is hedging . Sitting in a restaurant off I-2.5 and 84th Avenue, he tells the reporter why he was arrested and sent to prison, but immediately says it's off the record. He doesn't want people to get the wrong impression of him. Just released from the Englewood Federal Correctional Institution in February, he wants to make a new start. In the four years he was incarcerated in the FCI, he accumulated 63 hours in college credit from Metro's Extended Campus Credit Program and two CU correspondence courses. A high school dropout, he earned his GED in a California county jail before he was transferred to Englewood. "When I was arrested, I decided I was going to make the best of it," Whispell says. The effort was not lost on his teachers. His name pops up spontaneously in a conversation with any of his instructors from Metro.

They say he is bright, diligent and responsible. "Frank was a star," says Alan Freeman, geography professor. "He understood why he was there and he didn't make excuses for it." Whispell is surprised and a little embarrassed that teachers remember and comment on him. He says he thought most teachers would see so many students, they wouldn't remember him. His trouble started in junior high school with pot and alcohol. He graduated to cocaine and heroin, and at 24 he became a guest of the federal prison system. He got clean in prison, though drugs are always available. In the beginning, he did smoke some pot, but the behavior proved rough on his academic career. "The only way to study is to have your own room," Whispell says. "I used to have to go to the cell house when I got caught smoking dope. You lose your room, you lose yourself-respect."

Eventually, Whispell became like most MSC students - working a full-time job and going to school. He took 15 credits when he could and declared a major in finance. He and a few other inmates were called "the hardcore college students." "I was starting to be known as the guy who went to college all the time," Whispell says. "Guys would come up and say 'Hey, Frank - what's this course like?' Then they would knock on my door after the class started and say 'What do you think this question means?' " His achievements won him the · respect of his peers, a shot at a brighter future and a sense of accomplishment. but despite a 3.8 GPA and letters from his teachers, his parole board was unimpressed with his achievements at a hearing in 1985. "They said all a college education says is we can take an illiterate criminal and tum him into a sophisticated criminal," Whispell

says. "It shocked me. I thought it · would make a difference." Now, Whispell wants to prove · his parole board was wrong. He's changing his major to mechanical engineering and will attend Metro this summer. His former life, he says, is behind him. "Even this dirty freeway looks · nice to me, Whispell says, gesturing toward 1-2.5 from the restaurant parking lot. "I know if I go back to drugs I'll blow it. I want to stay free." Whispell stands in the bright sunshine, hesitates and volunteers why he went to prison. He robbed some banks in California and was caught because a teller kept his typewritten note. The police tracked down the typewriter and found Whispell. "It was always just a note, typewritten. I never used a gun,", he said in the restaurant. In the parking lot he says: "Make sure you stress it wasn't armed robbery."
