AUTUMN An essay Linda Cuyler Reporter

(

,:f'

Blue plate specials change from salad to soup. Sandals and flip-flops inch towards the back of the closet and are replaced by biker boots and Brooks Brothers loafers. And the greens of summer tum to yellows and rusts. Autumn has arrived. The annual celebration of the change of seasons brings an array of changing colors, crisp breezes amd long shadows that make passers-by sit down and take pause in a refuge where the only sound that can be heard is the quiet rustling of the leaves high in the trees. On this particular afternoon, sketch pads, coffee cups and squirrels-in-residence surround the 30 people who brave the 70-degree temperatures to soak up' the last slow-glowing embers of a late summer's sun. And nobody wears Bolle's. The light is too raw, too precious, to soon given way to a gray winter sky to be wasted behind dark glasses. Everyone agrees. A woman wearing a gold blouse sits on a park bench, squinting and laughing as she talks with a young man whose gaze never leaves her face. A face that reflects the burnished hues of the season. With her new-copper-penny-colored hair and milkywhite skin, and the corals and scarlets of the changing leaves around her, she looks like an advertisement for Westinghouse soft-white light bulbs. And one young Oriental woman, wearing an oversized pink sweatshirt and white stretch pants, looks like she just stepped off the pages of Seventeen magazine. Although she seems blinded by the sun, she still relaxes on the lawn. But not all the autumnal revelers look like 8-by-10 color glossies. One man sporting a bushy white beard squints over a beer barrel of a belly that strains against well-worn black suspenders in order to read his daily paper. And a blond man in his mid-20s pushes a red dolly hauling about 40 big, fat A-thru-Z yellow-page directories down the sidewalk as he screws up his eyes against the sun's glare. But still no one thinks of wearing Foster Grants. Nobody wants to miss the colors - from the rubyred of a pomegranate to the forest-blue of a spruce. Everything seems so fresh on a day like this, when the angle of the sun is just so. Even the yellow and gold trim on a nearby cafe looks like it just got a fresh coat to celebrate the passing of a long, hot summer. And everybody loves the goose-bumps on their arms this chilly, crystal-clear afternoon. Lots of goose bumps on lots of different people on this bright and breezy day. A young, fresh-faced, squinchy-eyed troop leader -in what may be a true case of the blind leading the blind - escorts her charges, four pairs of 8-year-old Cub Scouts, in their shiny, new blue uniforms on a tour of a scenic park. The boys love it. They march up and down the sidewalk, stomping on the crunchy, brown leaves with the seriousness only young boys can muster for such a task. And they don't wear Baby 'Nays. But even without them, the boys don't squint much. Maybe that's why young boys don't have crow's-feet. Another sunglass-less group of a dozen college art

students sit around frowning and drawing. Frowning from the intense angle of the sun. Drawing because their teacher is checking their work. They draw trees with leaves, trees with a few leaves and trees with no leaves. They draw nearby lamp posts and historic buildings, too. But nobody draws the one scene that will now be so fleeting in the minds of its beholders.. Right in front of a cafe, in the middle of the street, stands a solitary silver upright vacuum cleaner and a beat-up, black carry- on suitcase. They cast perfect shadows in the perfect sunlight. And nobody notices.

But even if they fail to notice the vacuum and suitcase, they don't fail to notice the man. He walks into the park, his tan chinos fashionably cuffed, his brown deck shoes fashionably scuffed and his flattop fashionably coifed. And he wears black Ray-Bans. Does this man not understand summer's passage can only truly be savored with a tension headache generated from one's refusal to wear dark lenses that distort fall's true colors? Could be. But maybe his future's so bright he's gotta wear shades. D

Vendors, students angered by change in policy

Tivoli tapers students' bargain parking Renee Allen Reporter

No more parking and lunch for the price :of one. At least not at the Tivoli. A new system at the Tivoli parking lots has angered some Auraria students and Tivoli food vendors but has pleased some Tivoli merchants. The new system allows people to park in the lots for three hours at no charge if they get their parking tickets validated by making a purchase at a Tivoli business. After the first three hours there is a charge of 75 cents per half hour up to a maximum of $5. The old system allowed anyone to park in the Tivoli lots all day at no charge with a validated parking ticket. The main reason for the change, according to the Tivoli General Manager Terry Willey, was complaints from customers about lack of parking. The Tivoli lots were always full, but not with shoppers' cars - with students' cars, Willey said. Even Tivoli employees were having a hard time finding parking spaces. "When I came in for a 12 o'clock shift I couldn't find a parking space," said one Fashion Bar employee. But Willey said the students were not the only problem. "I want the students to know that I didn't just walk outside one day and decide I didn't want them to park there anymore," he said. Shoppers were driving to the Tivoli and parking in Tivoli lots, getting their parking validated for a small purchase and then taking the trolley downtown and staying all

The Tivoli parking lot, 9:30 a.m. Wednesday Sept. 30. day, parking for free, Willey said. He said he is trying to do what is best for everyone concerned. "After all, what other shopping area allows free parking? Not Tabor or Larimer. We at least offer three free hours. We're in the retail business not the parking business,'' he said. Even with three hours of free parking, Auraria students are upset. "The Tivoli is singling us out and making it hard for us to find parking and that isn't fair," one student said. Another student added, "Before the Tivoli opened we had those two lots and they were prime parking areas. Parking down

here was scarce enough with those two lots and the Tivoli took them. ·ow there is less space and we can't afford to park in those lots. Some food vendors have reported decreases in business anywhere from $100 to $300 a day since the new parking system has gone into effect. "My business has dropped about 15 percent. The restaurants bring the people to this mall, not the merchants. Tivoli is alienating their best base - the students,'' said Phil Wenzel, manager of Rocky Rococo pizza restuarant. Still the retail merchants are pleased with the new system, saying it has increased their

Purchase could increase tuition

U CD eyes building for space needs 1.

C. Patrick Cleary

Reporter

The University of Colorado's proposal to purchase the Dravo building in downtown Denver, partially through studentgenerated money, could open the door to further increased tuition rates, accQrding to one Consortium official. The C .U. Board of Regents approved the estimated $12 million purchase agreement with a Denver firm, and awaits a Colorado Commission of Higher Education (CCHE) ruling, expected at a special meeting in late October. When asked if student tuition would be used to pay for the building's purchase if approved, regent Hugh Fowler said, "We will pay for the building with whatever resources we have." Pam Wagner, media relations director for the Consortium of State Colleges, which governs Metro, Adams, Western and Mesa colleges, said if the proposal meets CCHE approval an alarming trend of tuition rates could occur. If tuition pays for academic facilities, student costs would increase drastically, she said. "Commission policy states that student funds cannot be used for academic buildings," said Geri Reinhardy, assistant to the executive director of CCHE. Currently,

student fees, not tuition, support a college's recreational and student center buildings, she said. The commission called for the special meeting later than its regular monthly meeting Oct. 1 so board members can consider the proposal, she said. Fowler said because UCD must meet its short-term space needs, the Dravo building on 15th and Lawrence, which houses its administrative offices and several classes, is an economically smart move. The college currently rents space in that building as well as one on 14th and Lawrence. :t\lthough the new Auraria replacement building was originally intended to replace UCD facilities that will be lost when the yet unsold East classroom building closes in December, only 30 percent of the replacement facility has been assigned to UCD, he said. Auraria Higher Education Center figures indicate MSC's allocation of general purpose class space in the new facility is 16,978 square feet. UCD is allocated 11,075, and Community College of Denver gets 2,39.5 square feet. UCD is allocated 128,820 square feet of office/lab space and MSC, 6,387. Fowler said throughout UCD's history, students were turned away because of lack

of space, despite the fact that the school traditionally rented space throughout the metro area as well. Defending the purchase proposal, Fowler said the way colleges are set up, a range of expenses is paid for through a range of resources. So to say one source is paying for something in particular is too simple an answer. Also, because student fees are a mandatory payment, contractors who built recreational and student center facilities are guaranteed reimbursement though the bonding process. "A fee is like tuition because if you want to go to school you must pay the student fee, just like tuition,'' Fowler added. He also said CU gets less state economic support than other schools so it must raise additional funding elsewhere. According to Bob Nero in UCD's public relations office, the college's school of architecture and planning and business administration will also stay on the east side of Cherry Creek next year. "In January we have to move the architecture school from the East classroom and have nowhere to put them,'' Fowler said. 0

business and has stopped customer complaints. "Our business has increased since the new system went into effect. The students just took advantage of the old system," said another Fashion Bar employee. Willey said the lots make virtually no money. He said he leases them and then pays for all maintenance and if there is any money left he gets a check from the leasing company. "I have received three checks in the last 20 months,'' said Willey. Pl!lns to remedy the parking situation are being discussed. According to Willey, AHEC and the Tivoli are talking about building a new parking garage and sharing it. One possible solution was offered by Ginney May, an employee of Savvy, a women's accessory store. "Maybe they could give the students the back part of the the back lot and leave the closer parking for the shoppers," she said. The new parking system has caused a lot of hard feelings, but not just between students and the Tivoli. Jack, owner of the Steakman restaurant, is particularly upset and would like the students to know how he feels. He has sold his business in the Tivoli and wil.l be moving to a new location soon. "For a year and a half I have kept my prices low and given students special deals. I even validated their parking tickets for just buying a Coke and then they boycott me because of somethin~ the Tivoli did. That isn't fair and that's what really bothers me,'' he said. D

A longtime ~!SC electrical engineering instructor mar formulate a merger petition to present to the state legislature in an effort to join Auraria's three schools into one large university. "\\'e spend 82.5 million in duplicate salaries between Metro and UCO that aren't used to teach students," said Harrr Temmer of MSC. Temmer's current petition, still in the planning stages, would resemble one he submitted to the legislature in 1984. That one was defeated by a vote of 5 - 2 in the education committee. The way the Auraria system is set up now, four executive directors and six govemin g boards set policy for downtown Den\'er's educational needs, he said. Temmer said this is too much governance and costs too much. Auraria Board of Director's chairman Don Bain said recently a major university would spur economic interest and growth in the local economy, not to mention provide research opportunities for students. Both Temmer and Bain believe a major university can maintain the personal style of education which Auraria established over the past 20 years.

Temmer, however, warns that MSC has been relying on its reputation of the past for too long. "I see some of the people who made this institution what it is jumping ship," Temmer said. Bain said the idea of one university west of Cherry Creek has been around since the inception of the college system and resurfaces from time to time. When MSC was formed, it was asked to share space, and in turn a "political management mess" was created, Temmer said. Now, with so many boards and committees setting policy, decisions are not made in an efficient way, he said. In 1985 the Colorado Commission on Higher Education was granted authority to review how the educational facilities of Auraria are governed. The review must !Je done every four years, and they must complete the first one by 1988, Temmer added. A merger of the campuses would call for the joining of many jobs, including high level management positions. Temmer said he is concerned his proposal would call for the loss of jobs but he said something must be done about the "political mess" and "power jealousy" that deters what is the most important element of this college - education of the students.

More minority students may become college bound thanks to an MSC Chicano and Latino Organization called MEChA Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan. "We want to create an environment in colleges and universities where the Chicano and Latino students can become successful ," said Joe Navarro, MEChA chairman at \1SC. Although the movement has kept its traditional Chicano name, which refers to Mexican-Americans, it is an organization for Latinos as well. But back in the 70s MEChA was formed as a way to unite different Chicano oq.i;anizations in the Southwest and California, :\avarro said. "Aztlan was the name the Indians in Mexico gave to the North, so we are living in the territory that they described as Aztlan," Navarro said. The main purpose of MEChA has been the creation of educational opportunities for minority students, but the organization also functions as a tool to promote the different cultures of peoples of Latin origin living in this country. Scholarship money is the key to promo.te education, he said. But those funds have been scarce due to hard times in the economy. For the last two years, MEChA has been given $3,000 per semester by the CocaCola Company, its only sponsor. "We're thankful, but that's a small, small contribution to meet our needs," said Navarro, a part-time student with no declared major. "Unfortunately, it is the best we can do for now."

The $3,000 for the fall semester had to be spread very thin to meet urgent needs of several students, he said. Three received $500, two received $400, another got $300 and four got $100 each. These students were selected primarily because of their needs, he said. Other criteria for the scholarship program at MEChA include community or campus involvement and minimum GPA of 2.0. "There's a real lack of funds hr corporations and by private foundations," : Navarro said. "~fanr people ·w ho come to us have already applied with many other foundations and haven't got anything. I know they basically make it clear that they are desperate." He said that while the picture is still bleak, MECl1A intends to keep on trying to raise funds for its scholarships. "We're still submitting proposals to private funding sources such as McDonalds and Miller brands," :\avarro said. ":'.\'ext year, we hope to raise money through the Cinco de Mayo," he added. MEChA is the organizer of the Cinco de Mayo celebrations on campus every year. Cinco de Mayo is a commemoration of the day Mexico forces defeated French forces in 1862. But while funds for scholarships have been hard to find, MEChA members go on with their work to create a better understanding of their cultures as well as improve student skills to help themselves. "Last April MEChA helped to organize the National Chicano Student Conference at the CU-Boulder campus," Navarro said. -... MEChA worked together with UMASUnited Mexican-American Students -the Chicano and Latino organization at the Boulder campus. continued on page IO

Co-op means jobs, money for students Joan Davies Reporter

Looking for a way to earn money for college and still gain experience in your major? Try MSC's Cooperative Education Program. For the past 15 years, the MSC co-op program has helped students find jobs and internships related to their majors - jobs some students continue even after graduation. According to Susan Lanman, director of Cooperative Education, some students join the program because their major or minor requires it. Others simply want to find a job and feel the program is successful in placing them in the appropriate environment. "We get an awful lot of really good feedback. I feel like we're .hiding our light under a bushel - we'd like to have more students," she said. But before students rush over to the coop office, Lanman offers some criteria for determining eligible students. "We do require that students have a sophomore status or the equivalent of 30 semester hours, so that they will have had some of their basic courses,'' she said. Students must have a 2.5 CPA, but "if they have basically good grades in their major and screwed up in one course, and if they have a letter of recommendation from their professor, then we'll make an exception. But eventually, they'll have to bring up their CPA," Lanman added. Lanman said she also recommends students have a d eclared major, although the program does service all majors. ..There are a few specific programs with restrictions," she said. "For example, student teachers, where it's a state certification issue. The faculty in those areas directly supervise their own internships. But for the most part, we do internships for all students." Interchange of the terms "internship" and "co-op" may be confusing for some students. The Metro program uses the words synonymously, although Lanman said some schools make a distinction. Lanman said co-op counselors try to be thorough in preparing students for prospective employment. "We ask that they bring in a rough draft of a resume, so we can get some idea down on paper of what they want. We ask them to bring a copy of their grades so we can set up a course or path," she explained. Counselors then talk with students about their interests and goals.

"Some 'think'. they are very sure they have the right major, but want to gain certain types of experience," she said. Lanman said that while the co-op counselors do help students prepare resumes and advise them on interviewing techniques, the Auraria Placement Center provides regular seminars to which co-op counselors refer students for resume-writing and interviewing skills. Students who visit the co-op office will receive handbooks and pamphlets along with counseling. The Cooperative Education Student Handbook includes such advice as preparation for an interview. The hal)dbook even provides questions interviewers might ask, such as "What do you hope to be doing five years from now?" and "Why did you decide to seek a co-op with this company?" Once students have a file with the co-op office, the job hunt begins. Students can get ideas from openings listed on bulletin boards around campus. Students also receive a newsletter from the office with job listings. "If the student is interested in applying for a job, they just let us know ... give us a call and talk with a coordinator," Lanman said.

"This is a nice microcosm of the real world." -Susan Lanman Cooperative Education director The employer receives the student's credentials and selects final candidates for interviewing. "This is a nice microcosm of the real world, because as a co-op student, you're not just competing against other co-op students, but often you'll compete with students from DU, CU, Regis or any number of schools," she said. "It's a great chance to make that transition into the real world." Several students feel they have benefited from their involvement in the program. "This experience has prepared me for a job in my career field of personnel management and has given me a chance I'd probably not have gotten on my own," Theresa Mejia, a management major, said of her job with Amoco Production Company. · "Working under pressure and meeting deadlines has been very good for me," said art major Reb ecca Wedding. "1 get work for school done much faster now." \11/hile most jobs are salaried positions, Lanman said the office does get requests

school. By the time the next semester rolls around, they'll switch positions," she explained. "A Jot of companies, like Martin Marietta, like that type of program." But Lanman said the plan is often difficult for MSC students to follow because they have many other responsibilities. The second program is called the "parallel plan" and allows students to work and attend school simultaneously. "The third option we call our short term or summer placement, where a student will be going on a co-op job for a limited period of time, mostly during the summer," Lanman said, adding that this plan gives students an opportunity to take out-of-state jobs. Unless students have unreasonable requests or limit themselves in availability, Lanman said they will be placed within a reasonable time period. "] don't think we've ever helped a studentwho really didn'twant to do an internship,'' Lanman said. "If they didn't, I think we'd need to do some counseling - try to work with them to see what was the problem." Lanman urges students to become involved in co-op, whether they're going directly into the job market after graduation or on to graduate school. "College is really expensive today - 87 percent of our students are working to put themselves through school," Lanman explained, "You cannot produce that money and time if you're not sure you're aimed in the right direction. Co-op is a way to help you make sure that this is really what you want to do." D

for volunteer workers. "Last year, we had 70 placements in what was called 'co-ops for public service.' Students become involved in the community with a non-profit agency where they're giving something back to the community," Lanman said, adding that this kind of work promotes good relations for the Denver metro area. So far the supply of jobs hasn't run out for the program. Companies that have worked with the co-op office come back each year. But Lanman said the counselors never wait for job opportunities; they keep busy making contacts in Denver, in Colorado and even out-of-state. Lanman said the program is successful in giving many students continued job opportunies after they graduate. "You should understand that not all students will necessarily accept a position with their co-op employer after they graduate,'' Lanman explained. "Some go on to graduate school or, perhaps as a result of a co-op experience, they'll have a lot of training and will be very valuable on the job market." But she said students who are able to "pick and choose" as a result of the co-op job are in a better position than those who are "out pounding the pavement desperately wondering" what they're going to do. Studenls who are interested in what the program has to offer can participate in one of three ways. The first is the alternating plan, in which two students share one job. "The first student will work with the employer f~ll-time, 40 hours a week for the fa]] semester, while the second goes to

- - - ---OP-ED Experience, not college, passport to 'real world' A friend of mine already wants to leave school after only seven weeks of class. I don't mean leave as in drop out and go to work in a filling station. I'm talking about leaving the city. The state. The country. It has to do with a lot more than just student burnout. It isn't just being tired after working 50 hours a week in a meaningless job for minimum wage. Nor is it·about worrying if the woman who sits next to you in geology thinks you are a stud. It has to do with the quality and relevance of education and how it prepares people for the 'real world .' A school like Metro is quite unlike what people think of when they think of a traditional college. Many students come here after they have been thrown out of those real institutions. Many come here because it is a lot cheaper to live at home and work while they attend classes. Almost all Metro students have to work. Some come here because they feel they can get quality education. But what really is quality education? Su re you can go to all of your marketing classes, get straight A's, graduate, get a good job, get married and have 1.7 children. Then you grow old and die.

But what kind of life is that? What have we really learned? Like my friend has found out, there is a lot more to life than an education. He wants to learn th ings from experience. He wants to go to Europe and Turkey and Israel and India. He has to experience the things many people just see slides of. Our society puts too high a value on school. Don't get me wrong, I think a college education is important. But a college education should be more than boring, verbose textbooks and chicken-scratch lecture notes. It is very important for people to augment their education with first-hand experience. Find out how other people live. See the poorest of souls living on the doorsteps of the wealthy in Calcutta. Know what it's like to wonder where your next meal is coming from. The majority of things taught in school are totally irrelevant unless you can actually apply them to real life. Real life isn't just a new BMW every year. Real life isn't just memorizing four reasons for the outbreak of World War I. Real life is living. Eric Mees Assistant Editor

MSC's progressive stance all unng Dear Editor: I wish to take this opportunity to commend the administration of MSC for establishing and maintaining the office of the Adult Learning Services. I am one of the many non-traditional students who embark upon a new career later in life, after having raised a family and worked for many years in another field . I am at MSC as a direct result of my interaction with the office of Adult Learning Services. Before re-entering, I called every college in the Denver Metro area with programs for the returning student. Most were pleasant, all sent brochures and/ or college bulletiQS, though few took the time to answer my questions. Dr. Lancaster of the Adult ; Learning Center, called back and scheduled an

appointment to discuss my opportunities and to help me explore potential goals. She answered my questions, anticipated many more, and explained the necessary procedures. Subsequent contact with the excellent staff of the Adult Learning Center, plus the Portfolio Development Workshop, gave me a positive beginning at MSC. The "can-do" attitude encouraged and sustained me throughout my first year. The pursuit of my degree at Metro has continued to be very positive. When, as a returning student, I was terrified of mathematics, the counseling center helped me overcome much of my math anxiety. Most of the faculty is of an exceptionally high quality, and the support staff generally helpful. I have achieved

recognition in several areas, and participated in the London Abroad program. Th is semester I am a Teaching Assistant, and I look forward to gaining clinical experience in my major field through the Cooperative Education program. In conclusion, I apprec iate the progressive stance of Metro's administration. The positive encouragement of the non-traditional student has produced a fertile learning environment. Classes consisting of a broad age range of students with vastly different backgrounds provide a rich experience. This is an excellent college. I am happy to be a part of it, and I will be proud of my degree. Barbara E. Anderson

DiPaolo confl ict costs students -

CORRECTIONS In the Sept. 18th issue, Metro student Tom Reiter's name was misspelled. In the Sept. 25th issue, late art professor Howard Brown was misidentified on two occasions.

In the Sept. 25th issue, an inadvertent reference was made to Henry Wade. Wade was actually the original prosecutor in the Roe vs. \\'ade case.

Dear Editor: I was appalled in following the developments in the Sept. 4th and 11th issues of The Metropolitan concerning the failure of MSC to renew the tenured teaching contract of Mr. Larry DiPaolo. Mr. Di Paolo has taught with distinction at Metro for a number of years. In that time, he has certainly enhanced the reputation and stature of the college and inevitably receives the highest grades from the students themselves as one of its very best teachers. Mr. DiPaolo's indisputable excellence makes the decision by the college all the more outrageous. He is the kind of professor the college and its students need and can ill afford to lose. Since h is not being rehired to a tenured slot so plainly has nothing to do with his merit as a teacher or scholar, only politics, trifling legalism and self serving guild issues remain! The college is willing to exploit Mr. Di Paolo's obvious

talents, full time, year after year, to enhance its own ends. When he claims membership in their exclusive lodge, the department chair and college representatives have the gall, in their innocent perplexity, to question why Mr. Di Paolo and students, colleagues and alumni could have ever believed he was already a true, bona fide member of their club. The college may have found some paltry ground from which they can disenfranchise Mr. DiPaolo, but that does not make it right. The saddest aspect of the college's failure is that the ultimate losers are the students themselves. My hope is that MSC w i ll reconsider its position -, regarding Mr. Di Paolo. Common sense dictates that the college would want the very best teachers for their tenured faculty. Justice demands that they reverse their decision regarding Mr. DiPaolo.

MSC student survives violent past Elvira Ramos Reporter

..

Emiley Young, an MSC student, has a message she wants to share regarding the treatment of children of violence. Young, 44. a speaker at the MSC-sponsored "Children of Violence" symposium Sept. 26, has an intimate knowledge of the issue. Her father murdered her mother after abusing her mother for nearly two decades. To suffer the death of a parent is a loss at any age. But a child growing up in a violent home surrenders vital parts of his childhood. There is not the sense of carefree abandon we would like to associate with childhood. "You know how it is in school when you're young, and you daydream," Young said. "Well, I was always in a hurry for school to get over, to be home, to be there. "I was my mother's caretaker. I had to be there to protect her." At 15, Young spent the summer living and working in a nearby town. Late one evening, as she sat on the porch with friends, someone came running to tell them a fight was taking place a block away. Some of her friends went to watch. But it was late, and Young went to bed instead. She didn't know her mother was on her

way to visit her. "At 10 o'clock my aunt and my grandmother came to the door, and they were crying, and I knew what it was about." The fight a block away had been between her parents. Her father had stabbed her mother to death. Young believes thecommunity'sresponse to the event increased the tragedy of the children in the family. ~ewspapers published photos of her and her siblings. "They lined us up and took our pictures. We thought it was something good, but the next day our pictures were on the front page of the community paper. My brothers came home crying. They said the kids were teasing us." Then the children were separated and brought up in different homes. "We were separated and taught different ways," Young said. "Siblings can never bring that cohesiveness back together again." Young sees the separation of siblings as one way that abuse against a child is aggravated. "Children see it as a punishment and a cross to bear the rest of their lives," she said. This can be doubly difficult for the

caretaker of the family. "For 28 years I always thought it was my fault that I couldn't protect my mother and keep the family together." When she grew up, Young traveled for many years as a flight attendant, searching for alternatives. "I was consumed by all the people not alike. Everything is not the same. I wanted to view life in the happy lane, to experience differences." Young is well read on the issue and knows of the generational syndrome of violence - that children tend to carry on the traits they learned from their parents. 'Tve always made sure my son (now 22) never experienced that. I taught him you never have to hit anyone, to walk away because it's not worth it." Having been through two marriages, the second of which she describes as emotionally abusive, Young is aware of the legacy of the violence she witnessed as a child and determined that her life be different. She is attractive, articulate, friendly, sophisticated. Her friends, she said, are surprised to hear of her past. 'Tm an introvert but the outside is an extrovert." This, she said, comes from decad es of

shame, from not wanting strangers to know about her past. "I have a presence that people think I am the strongest person alive. I have a tremendous shield." Having been through decades of silence and shame, she has reached understanding. "I am reconciling the violence and learning ... what I'm doing now is learning how not to be involved mentally or physically in abusive situations ever again." Young hopes that.speaking out will be of help to others. "I want to help people to look at what children are going to go through. I want people to realize there is special care to take in dealing with children of violence. I want this to serve a purpose. I want people to know that it is my whole iutention in telling this, that it be meaningful." And she has some advice for other adults \vho have experienced a childhood of violence. "Look within yourself at yourself. Look at how you can grow and develop from that situation. "You don't have to give up. There are other ways to develop and you can be a better person. There is always another way." o

"Many children are unable to conceptualize a family life without violence," said clinical psychologist Courtney Pullen, of the Arapahoe Psycho-Therapy Collective. The cycle of violence against children was discussed at the Sept. 25-26 "Children of Violence" symposium which was sponsored by the MSC's Office of Conferences and Seminars. Pullen and other professionals examined why laws and legislation intended to safeguard the rights of minors have not effectively protected children. Attorney John D. (Jay} Elliott, the keynote speaker, told the 70 who attended that the time has come to do things differently in this community in terms of respondi.ng to human needs. "It's time we change the thinking of some adults. Children are not our property. We cannot do what we please with them," he said. According to Elliott, the courts and legislators can do only so much. "We have enough laws and legislation. We need to look at the way we organize these (community} services and we need to look at the way we pay for them," he said. The cycle of violence cannot be broken by simply taking the children out of the home, Elliott said. "We have to change the way we view kids. We need to teach people how to handle children better," Elliott said. Denver District Attorney Norm Early, speaking with Elliott on KMGH-TV 7's "Newsmaker" program Sept. 27, said it is time we started seriously educating adults on h ow to bccom~ better parents.

Lawyer John D. (Jay) Elliott "We need to have parenting programs. We need to direct our attention to what causes dysfunctional families and start spending money for the services," Early said. During the two-day S)'mposium, the professionals echoed the same concerns too many tears have been shed by children and too many scars have been lashed upon them. According to speaker Jo Bloom, an early-childhood specialist at the C. Henry Kempe National Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse, many parents are unaware of the emotional abuse they inflict upon their children. "Emotional abuse eats at the soul of the child," Bloom said. "Words can hurt and produce lasting scars." Elliott said, "Innate violence will never stop un til we come to grips with what causes the violence." D

A 60s Black Power proponent made his annual appearance on the Auraria campus Sept. 23 to encourage blacks that organization outside the political system is a preferable way to end their oppression. Kuame Ture (formerly Stokely Carmichael} , a pronounced member of the All African People's Revolutionary Party, spoke io the St. Francis Interfaith Center to a group of representatives from various Colorado colleges and universities as part of a UCD Associated Black Students meeting. Ture said the political system is not the best method for blacks to use b ecause it is corruptive to those who try to work within its framework. "The system itself is corrupt from the b eginning," he said. "And the system can corrupt and seduce." According to Ture, the material awards of politics can taint personal integrity, and those who choose to advance through the system must first understand that it is a corrupt system and put up their defenses. As an alternative, Ture recommended that blacks join organizations of their choice such as a black student association. "Organization is necessary to construct a new system," he said. "Without organization~ there is no defense." Ture said because American black uprisings of the 60s were unorganized, racism and oppression did not end. "All the solutions have been tried and tested," he said. 'There's still racism here; there's still exploitation here. This is not the ans\Yer."

Speaking of the All African People's Revolutionary Party, Ture told his audience, "We have such a good chance. \\'e've got organizations." The African People's Party has chapters scattered throughout North and South America, Europe and Africa, according to Renee Rabouin of the Equal Opportunity program at UCD, which co-sponsored the event. The number of people involved in the party reaches the thousands, he said.

"Africans get up every morning, go out and get shot. It is the instinctive love of justice that drives them on. You can't see this drive. You can't see the drive that makes the man go out to receive the bullet."

-KuameTure All African People's Revolutionary Party member "If you don't belong to an organization then you are against the people, .. Ture said. "Your purpose is to make a contribution. Africans in America are oppressed, and there is an objective reality that the oppressed ought to be free. "Africans (in that nation) get up every morning, go out and get shot," Ture said. "It is the instinctive love of justice that drives them on. You can't see this drive. You can't see the drive that makes the man go out to receive the bullet... D

Auraria office helps disabled build courage, independence James A. Tabor Reporter The Auraria Office of Disabled Student Services (ODSS) offers assistance to any handicapped student striving to particpate in society's mainstream. Melanie Tern, manager of the ODSS explained that the Auraria campus is ideally constructed for disabled students. "The Auraria campus has evolved into one of Colorado's most physically accessible campuses in its effort to provide a barrier-free education for disabled students," Tern said. "College experiences provide an excellent opportunity for disabled students to test their independence." Two hundred to three hundred disabled students each semester request assistance fromODSS. There are probably many more handicapped students on campus who don't request assistance. "There could be thousands of disabled students on the Auraria Campus," Tern said. "Many disabled students don't contact us."

The campus is required by the federal government to offer any reasonable accommodation to disabled persons. 111e ODSS offers assistance to persons on an individual need basis. The available assistance covers such needs as personal, academic and career counseling. Help with admissions and registration services are available if needed.

The ODSS will act as the advocate for protecting the handicapped person's civil rights, Tem explained. Many of the disabled people requesting assistance ask only for a specific need. "Many of the handicapped people know exactly what they need," Tern said. "They want that particular assistance and no other. Part of my job responsibilities include negotiating with the faculty on how best to serve a disabled person's classroom needs." The ODSS offers extensive services for classroom assistance which include notetakers, interpreters, test assistance or modification. Tutors are available as are technical aids such as print enlargers, voice amplifiers and bio-feedback machines. The most requested assistance ODSS receives is for handicapped parking, she said. "Handicap parking has been one of the biggest problems we have to deal with ," Tern said. "The problem has been that many people have disablities which weaken their stamina and they need to park close to school. The parking office and I are working on a solution." The ODSS's future plans and improvements include working with the Career Services Department to adopt planning strategies such as the best way for a person in a wheelchair to handle a job interview. Another improvement will be increasing the number of paid readers because of an increased demand. For forther information contact ODSS at 556-8388 or the Arts Building Room 177.D

"How do you kiss a blind girl?" Sally Wagner, author of a book by that title, will b e one of the guest speakers during Handicap Awareness Days Oct. 5 Oct. 10. The primary focus of the awareness days is to inform the general populace of handicapped people's abilities. "Those of us who are disabled can do anything that anybody else does, we just do it differently," said Melanie Tern, manager of the Office of Disabled Student Services (ODSS). "Handicap Awareness Days will emphasize and derr;ionstrate disabled persons' abilities ." The ODSS is co-sponsoring the event in conjunction with other campus and local organizations. Wagner, a journalist, will kick off awareness week Monday, Oct. 5 at the Auraria Book Center. She will be available from noon to 1:30 p.m. for autographs and discussion on her professional and personal experiences with the progressive blindness. Mol)day evening, The Disabled Artists Coalition will co-sponsor an art show featuring the works of handicapped artists. Mark M. (last name withheld by request) , an MSC art history major and quadriplegic, is one of the featured artists. "Art provides me with an opportunity to produce something worthwhile with my limited physical ability," Mark M. said. "I receive tremendous satisfaction through the expression of my artistic ability." Blind vocalist Gail Hamilton will perform at the art show Monday evening. Tuesday's events b egin with a six mile tandem bike ride. Gary Cruz, Mike Nolan, and Ron Zapollo, representing Denver's three major television stations, have tentatively confirmed their participation. Each bike will have a sighted guide and a blind and/or blindfolded participant. Tuesday evening, the Auraria Child Care Center will co-sponsor a workshop for parents and professionals titled 'Identifying Disabilities in Young Children.' The workshop is free, but reservations are necessary. Wednesday's activities start with an obstacle course in sensitivity experience. Ablebodied people will have the opportunity to experience the various obstacles involved with adapting to disabilities. This presenta-

said in order to flow with society's mainstream he has learned to adapt. Despite a speech impediment, Jim J. has learned to communicate in a second language - English. He explains that overcoming a handicap can be as simple as offering your help. "Before, I was not able to talk to people. When I had questions in the classroom I wouldn't ask them. Now for 20 hours a week I work for ODSS. I get great pleasure from being able to help other handicapped people," he said. A panel discussion on sexuality and the disabled person, co-sponsored by HAIL, completes Wednesday's agenda. Thursday's agenda is headlined by a discussion of AIDS and a crime prevention seminar. Both topics are co-sponsored by The Colorado Aids Project and Auraria Public Safety. Friday evening, Geri Jewell, a comedian with cerebral palsy and part-time actress on TV sitcom Facts of Life, headlines a comedy program. Don Becker and Art Carlson, two handicapped comedians from The Comedy Works, are also scheduled to perform. Because of limited space, admission for the comedy show is $1 per person. Tickets can be purchased at the Mission. The agenda also includes events such as hearing, seeing and working dog demonstrations, w h ee lchair basketball and aP.rohir~ .

Denver police arrested an MSC student who entered the women's locker room in the gymnasium area Sept. 25, according to Lolly Ferguson of the Auraria Public Safety. Dwight Johnson, 20, is being charged with disorderly conduct. "The two women showering asked Johnson to leave, but he refused until a third woman who had already showered started toward him," Ferguson said. Aura-

"\

ria Public Safety officer Bill Bowles was first dispatched to the scene, and then the police were summoned to take a counterreport for court action, according to Ferguson. "While the Denver officers were taking a report from the victims, the officers saw a man matching the description, and the women identified him as the man who was in their locker room. The officers took him into custody," Ferguson said. No further information could be obtained about Johnson after his arrest. D

"There are lots of unanswered questions that we have in the Latino movement in general, such as our history and identity, the whole issue of immigration," he said. "MEChA has historically opposed the immigration reform bills and we support the rights of the undocumented immigrants," he added. avarro finds it very important that the organizaion advocates these political issues to help the community better understand what is really involved in them. "A lot of people come to the U.S. to escape hardships in their countries," he said. "They come in hopes of getting a job and feeding their families." Americans should learn the unknown versions of American history, Navarro said. "American history is a diverse history and right now it is taught in a very biased way," he said. "Role models or heroes are usually Anglo-American pioneers such as George Washington, or somebody like Kit Carson - famous because he killed a lot of Indians and Mexicans - Daniel Boone and others. "Chicanos are always portrayed as being in conflict with society. I think that Indians, Chicanos and black people made the greatest contribution to democracy. Our own existence has been struggling for democracy," Navarro said. Joaquin Murietta, Tuburcio Vasquez and Juan Cortina are some of the people Navarro would like to see as heroes because they fought for Chicano rights in the 19th century. "M urietta tried to prevent Chicano lands from being stolen, but he is portrayed in history as a bandit," he said. MEChA members hope to give their cultures a fair chance by setting up a network between Chicano students and Chicano faculty to advocate more tenure of Latino professors and also the need for ethnic studies. "We feel that ethnic studies should be mandatory for those who are education majors," he said. "We had to raise more than $10,000," he said. "Students came from all over the

country, even as far as Boston." The con ference had three days of workshops. "Some of the workshops were based on strengthening our own skills, such as fundraising, recruitment, networking, working with the media, leadership, all in order to help the organization itself," Navarro said. There were also discussions on political issues which are directly related to the philosophy of MEChA, he said. Basic changes such as this can make a difference for the whole process, Navarro said. He said that MEChA's efforts can help build public awareness in order to resolve basic differences in education opportunities. "The quality of education in public schools attended by Chicanos is lower," he said. "Schools are overcrowded. I visited one school where a renovated balcony was converted into a classroom. "Another factor is teachers of Chicano children expect less from them, and studies have shown that if you expect less, anyone will achieve less," he added. Jeannette Martinez, 20, an accounting major and MEChA member, said she has the saifle concerns based on her own experience. "I went to a Catholic school, and even inside the school classes were unofficially segregated," she said. "We, as kids, thought we could get away with a lot because we didn't have to do many things. But the truth is, we didn't learn as much." Martinez said MEChA's name should be changed to attract more people. 'The name MEChA is very 70s-oriented," she said. "When I first heard it, I was a little turned off by what it means. I thought it sounded kind of radical. We need something to update our image and let more people know about us." MEChA has 90 members at Auraria. No dues are charged and all students are welcome. The organization meets every other Monday at 3:30 p.m. at the student center. The phone nur~ber is 556-3325. D

That structure houses the .:; Emmanuel Callery, a tri-institutional facility managed by the Auraria Visual Arts Committee. The gallery shows local and regional exhibits as well as exhibits of the campus faculty and students. "Our purpose is to be an exhibition gallery," says Carol Keller, gallery co¡t ordinator, "but sometimes we do sell things." Built in 1876, the structure originally was an Episcopalian chapel. Then in 1903, the chapel was purchased by a Jewish congregation and converted into a synagogue. When Emmanuel was converted, a balcony was added and the ceiling was replastered and rounded. The Emmanuel Shearith Israel Chapel served the local Jewish community until 1958. In 1969 the building was approved for listing on the ~ational Register of Historic Places with its mix of Romanesque and Gothic architectural styles. The late-Denver artist Wolfgang Pogzeba purchased the building and used it as a studio until 1973. The Emmanual Callery is Denver's oldeststanding church structure and has been remodeled for use as an art gallery for the Auraria institutions. The Emmanuel Callery reserves six exhibition slots every year for faculty and student shows. This year's MSC Faculty

show is Nov. 2-19. The UCD faculty show is scheduled for Nov. 23 to Dec. l. CCD faculty will present a show in early spring, and the student shows are not set because of possible changes in the school calendar. Currently, the gallery is preparing for a new exhibit entitiled COexist. This exhibition will be presented from Oct. 5 through Oct. 29. COexist will feature the work of five artists demonstrating the coexistence of visual image with word, symbol, sign or icon. "Society and artists today no longer see a simple landscape. You go outside and see signs everywhere; it's immediate; it's digitized. You see a Coke sign and think of drink rather than what it is. In other words image becomes word and word becomes image," said Keller. While various kinds of visual language have been prevalent in many artists' work for some time now, COexist promises to be provocative as well as visually stimulating. The artists will include: Hank Brusselback, who focuses on sociological and political issues with his u~e of media in drawings, photography, silkscreen and text. Jack Balas, who incorporates words painted on canvases, which are mostly of landscapes, to suggest a metaphor or project. Tom Taylor, who incorporates white bread as a symbol in his sculptural installation, representing the doubtful nature of the substance of our daily lives.

Karen Breunig's large, emotionally charged canvases are full of markings and icons emphasizing her relationship with the world. Cary Sweeney, a master of subtlety, combines word and imagery to involve the viewer in complex thoughts about simple things. There will b e a reception at the gallery on Friday, Oct. 9, from 6-9 p.m. A perfor-

mance/talk will be given by Jack Balas on Wednesday, Oct. 14, at 7 p.m. He will discuss the excerpts from his writings and paintings that have been published in WhiteWalls, an artists periodical published in Chicago. Admission to the gallery is free. For further information call the Emmanuel Callery at 556-8337 or 556-8533. D

Does Jazz Julle Ann Zuffoletto Reporter Colorado's own Dotsero, a jazz.fusion group, shared its refreshing repertoire of breezy, bluesy sax and guitar against hardhitting waves of bass and drums during an afternoon jam in The Mission Sept. 23. Dotsero includes brothers Stephen and David \Vatts (saxophone and guitar respectively}, Michael Friedman on bass and J .D . Maniscalco on percussion. Not only are these boys native sons of our state, but they are also former students of ~1SC, UCDand DU. Stephen, wearing a Mickey Mouse safari T -shirt, really kissed up to his sax and let that baby wail! The need for reed you might say ... and not Lou either. Stephen played in a melancholy-with-muscle state of mind and body. Eyes closed, twisting and pumping to the beat, often times incorporating pelvic thrusts that would have made Elvis jealous, he displayed a constant rush of music and motion. Flanked by brother David on guitar, they showed no sibling rivalry. David resembled the Slowhand himself, Eric Clapton, with his sandy blonde hair and beard. His p laying posture seemed mellow in approach, but was still very impressive. Energetic bass player Friedman showed off his ability to master the g-strings and helped maintain the beat's 'backbone. Maniscalco appeared to be in d eep concentration towering over his drum set. He's a big boy with a big beat and he never missed it once, hitting his brass Zildjian cymbals with distinct clarity. No wonder his toy drum kit has long since been put away.

Overall, these guys were very tight playing together. Unfortunately, 01'.llY about 75 people caught their act. However, Dotsero enthusiasts gave them wonderful applause and whistles of support. I hadn't seen them p lay before, but was soon entranced. Dotsero is not a new band to Denver, but rather, familiar faces behind a couple of name changes. Their first two name attempts were Sneakers, and then New Shoes. However, previous bands already stepped on those foot fetishes. So they b ecame Dotsero. One tale behind the name is that Dotsero is Yute Indian for "something new." Or, according to Stephen, Dotsero could have come from an old railroad track intersection outside Glenwood Springs designated "dot-zero." Whatever the name, these four jazzers have proven themselves an attraction in sight and sound. If you get a chance, go and watch Dotsero do its thing.- Original songs include: Manassas Junction, After Hours and Winter's Journey- a hot lick that could really make the snow melt.This song gives the feeling of driving a Porsche through Independence Pass, on the long and winding road, and slamming into fifth g-ear as both musical climax and elevation rise. Great song. \.fore songs include Rev It Up, Another Summer, Ja zzmanian Folk Dance, and, of course, their crowd pleaser, Ooga Booga. Dotsero will be at Kailua's in the Tivoli Oct. 9 and 10. Both shows begin at 10:30 p.m. And they will perform at Betty Rose, 1404 Larimer St., as part of the KUVO Membership Drive party on Oct. 10 between 6 and 7 p.m. D

A weekend of frustration left the MSC men's soccer team winless in three games in California. On a muggy Friday, Sept. 25, the Roadrunners faced top-10 ranked Cal State-Dominguez Hills and lost 4-0. "The first three shots they had, they scored ," coach Bill Chambers said. "It's really hard to explain." The first goal came on a direct penalty shot 23 minutes into the game. Dominguez Hills scored a few minutes later to take a 2-0 halftime lead. In the second half, Chambers replaced senior goalie Doug Lazecki with freshman Craig Lammering. Dominguez Hills scored two more goals, one an unassisted 40-meter shot. "It wasn't Craig's fault," Chambers said. "He's a good goalie; he's ready to play." MSC's second loss came against Cal State-Poly Pomona 4-1 on Saturday. Poly Pomona junior sensation Johnny Lima scored three goals, one unassisted. ~1SC junior D.J. Ruder scored late in the second half on a long assist from freshman Tim Yunger. Ruder leads the team with five goals. "We had a good attack," Chambers said. "We dominated play in the second half." Ruder said, "We just couldn't get shots off." Monday, MSC faced Chapman College

Northern Colorado Tournament Sept. 25 and 26. Coming off an easy 15-1, 15-5, 15-13 romp over Colorado Mines Sept. 22, the Roadrunners fell only to tournament champion UNC during the two-day event. "I was real pleased with the way the team played," head coach Pat Johnson said. "We seemed to be able to go onto the floor and control the matches we played, with the exception of UNC. We got a little bit frustrated and a little bit intimidated by them." MSC opened the five -team tournament with a decisive· 15-7, 15-6, 18-16 victory over the University of Southern Colorado. "\Ve were pretty much in control the whole match," Johnson said. But substitution and experimentation led to a close third game, she added. The next match pitted MSC against tourn amen t host U 1\'C. Ranked 17th nationally in the Tachikara Coaches Top 20 Division II poll, undefeated UNC overpmvered the Roadrunners 15-8, 15-11, 7-15, 15-11. "\\'e were outplayed," Johnson said. "But we learned things about their offense and defense that give every indication we can beat them." The rematch is set at MSC on Oct. 21. Saturday, Air Force Academy, ranked 18th in the poll, offered little resistance as MSC put them away in straight games, 1512, 15-12, 15-11. "We were in control through the whole match," Johnson said. "We let them creep up on us and then we pulled away. The match was not as close as the scores might indicate."

The Roadrunners wrapped up the second place trophy in a four-game match against the University of Alaska-Anchorage, 6-15, ' 15·5, 15-5, 15-11. "Our serving knocked them right out of contention," Johnson said. "There were a lot of short serves and they weren't able to handle them." Julie Theander paved the way serving seven aces. She led the team with 17 aces for the tournament. Theander also led in blocks against USC and AFA. Sophomore Diane Johnson racked up kills in the tournament, heading the statistics list after each match. She has 148 kills on the season, to lead the team. Team block leader Heidi Keyes led in blocking against U:'.\C and UAA with 87 kills on the season; she's second only to Johnson. The Roadrunners, now 7-4, travel to Alaska to play their first conference matches • against UAA and University of AlaskaFairbanks Oct. 1-4. Johnson is confident the Roadrunners can sweep the series. "If we don't win four, I'm going to leave the team up there - floating on an iceberg," she said, laughing. Two victories will give Johnson her · 300th career win, a milestone she downplays. "It's not a magic mark," she said. "The way 300 happens is kind of an aside. The thing we'd like to do is put together a strong team record for the year." MSC's home opener is Oct. 7 against Mines. The Roadrunners face Mesa at home Oct. 9. First serve is 7:30 p.m. both nights.

,,How can one game mean that much? ~

Karl Braun Reporter

All I could do was watch. I didn't know what to say. I had already interviewed him ·t so I didn't have any questions. At least I didn't think I did. I just stood there and watched the coach pace back and forth on the field, clutching his young son like a panda would its young; and crying. He didn't console his team for the loss. They were left alone to deal with the loss -but then they had each other and it was only a game, wasn't it? He didn't talk to anyone but me and a long-time friend. He stood there as the crowd dispersed ,.. and the players talked with the other team, renewing old friendships that had drifted apart over the summer. To them, it seemed, friendships lived longer than athletic rivalries. Did a loss that meant nothing in the standings, only in pride, justify his response? Everyone knew the game would be hotly contested. It was something the players looked forward to, but did it warrant this response? :\faybe it was the final backbreaking catastrophe in an already disappointing :- day, or maybe, the game did mean that much to him. The whole thing seemed strange at a time when professional athletes will strike because owners don't agree on certain issues. These people don't seem interested ~ in the game, only monetary matters. Yet this coach was visibly upset over a game. Or was there more? What is even stranger is that I know the coach. He has been coaching for a long time and before that, he played. It doesn't make sense why he would react this way. 'How many times have young children been told when they are first learning to play, that in the long run it's only a game.

Lady Roadrunners roll

on six-game Win streak Games are for fun, a place to develop athletic abilities and build camaraderie in ouryouth.Sowhyisitsuddenlymoreimportant to win than to develop these skills? Ibis man was enveloped in his own misery. When once he had seemed untouchable, he now seemed susceptible to the elements, so inferior. I didn't know what to do, but now I know what to ask. \ 1\lhy is the game so important? Why should a loss to a team that gave them a good battle and why should a game that was fairly won cause a man who many thought was superior, to wither to nothing and not care who watched? Or did he not know that anyone was watching? Will he be ready for the next time the two teams meet? ~o one knows. He says yes, the team will. But will he?

Renee Allen Reporter The MSC Lady Roadrunners brushed by Denver University with a 1-0 victory Sept. 29 at Metro, for their sixth straight win. Jamie Cobb scored the only goal of the game fourteen and a half minutes into the first half, on an assist by Cindi Weishapel. "The defense played really well but the offense missed some good scoring oppor-

tunities in the first half and that made the game a little closer than it should have beei:i," coach Ed Montojo said. "We out shot them 21- 9, though." Metro players are nursing quite a few injuries, Montojo said. The Roadrunners play a pair of games in Texas this week. They play Southern Methodist University, ranked in the top 20, on Oct. 3 and Texas A&M on Oct. 4. D
