Pooled courses sinking? Eric Mees Assistant Editor

Recent University of Colorado at Denver policy changes could discourage its students from taking MSC courses and could threaten the existence of the pooled course program. "The new policies are really detrimental to the notion of the common pool," said Larry Johnson, dean of the School of Letters, Arts and Sciences at MSC. The pooled class system, the most liberal crossover program in the United States, has been in operation since the two schools began sharing the Auraria campus in the early '70s. It was created to allow students from MSC and UCD to take certain courses (including classes from liberal arts and sciences, physical education and others approved by individual departments) from either school. But since the summer semester of 1984, UCD has been implementing policies that make it harder for their students to take courses through MSC. Before the policies, there were no restrictions on the number of hours a student could take through the pool. The policies include the following stipulations: UCD students must first complete 15 credit hours through their school before they are allowed to sign up for any MSC class in the pool. After the initial 15hours, they are allowed to take 50 percent of their semester credit hours through the pool. Before this policy was implemented, for example, UCD students took 16,764 credit

hours through MSC's liberal arts and sciences program for the 1983-84 school year. After it was implemented, the number decreased to 12,534in 1984-85, said Carolyn Simmons, associate dean of liberal arts and sciences for UCO. (Part of this can be attributed to the fact that CU-Boulder and CU-Colorado Springs students could only receive transfer credit rather than resident credit for MSC classes and this has cut down on summer school enrollment, she said.) The latest restriction, to be implemented in the spring of 1988, is that a UCO student's grade point average for courses taken through MSC will no longer be figured into his/her cumulative GPA. The reason for the change is su that only the work a UCD student does at UCO will be highlighted on his/her transcript. Then only this course work will be noticed, said UCD Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs Gil Schmidt. He called this "truth in advertising." But some people at MSC are worried as to how Metro students will be affected by the changes. One of the reasons they are worried is because of the number of credit hours MSC students are taking in the pool. In the spring of 1987, MSC students took 3,422 hours to UCD's 4,212. And between 1983 and 1985, MSC averaged around 6,500 per year, Simmons said. "MSC is not sure that what UCD is doing is academically slmnd," said Alonzo Rodriguez, assistant dean of Admissions and Records at MSC."The bottom line is these policies force them (UCD students) to stay at UCD." The pool was originally set up so the

students would be able to utilize both institutions to better accommodate his/ her schedule, said MSC President William Fulkerson. But one fear MSC has is that students from both colleges won't be able to receive as good an educaton because the availability of classes will be diminished. "There is not much difference in the quality between the schools," Johnson said. He also said the instructors at both schools are highly qualified. "I personally believe Metro faculty to b e more student oriented," he added. Fulkerson said the students should have the maximum opportunity to enrich their schedule with courses from either school. "This institution believes in the pooled courses and pool cooperation. (Metro has) no plans for any changes at this point," Rodriguez said. Another possible problem on the horizon for the pool is that UCD will be implementing a new computer registration system by summer 1988. Currently, UCD shares registration with MSC. It is not known how this system will integrate with MSC's. According to Fulkerson, a special committee will be set up in the near future to study how the pooled class system can be continued. It will include members of the faculty affected by the pool. Johnson is being considered for a position on the committee, Fulkerson said. It is hoped that they will have some answers by March 1988. "We want to try to work our way through this first," Johnson said. "I just hope that MSC will be treated as D well as anyone else," Fulkerson said. " I• •

Poor see light of Day Kelly Pasta Reporter

Dorothy Day lobbied for the rights of the homeless and the hungry at a time when most people were worrying where their next meal was going to come from. The Auraria Catholic Campus Ministry is sponsoring a memorial liturgy Nov. 6 at the St. Elizabeth Catholic Church at 12:15 p .m. to commemoratt! what would have been Day's 90th birthday and the work of peacemakers in the world. As a "pre-feminist" in the 30s, Day was respected for her ability to influence many important people and gain their support for her cause - feeding and housing the

poor. "She was able to move into the Catholic hierarchy and affect the bishops and monks in a way that no other woman has ever come close," said Dan Fletcher, Auraria's Catholic campus minister. "She took a radical approach to living a life of Christ, and was able to lobby for the rights of the • homeless and the hungry, gaining support from politicians and religious men and women." Day also worked for peace in the world and encouraged civil obedience through peaceful means, Fletcher said. 4 People from all over the world will honor Day, including a celebration at the D Nevada Nuclear Test site.

Campus events planned Campus Recreation will be sponsoring tWo events next week at the Auraria gym. Both events will be open to all Auraria students and faculty/staff members. The annual Fall Swim Meet will be Nov. 3 at 5 p.m. The meet will consist of 10 events including one relay. All events are short distances with the 100-yard individual m~ey being the long-

est. Participants may sign up at PER 108 or just prior to the meet in the pool area. There will be no charge. There will also be a raquetball tournament Nov. 6-8. Competition is open to men A and women and will be in beginning, intermediate and advanced divisions. Deadline for sign up for the tournament is Nov. 4 at PER 108. Entry fee is $5. D I

----NEWS---senator wants extra money earmarked for parking

Programming policies produce petition Jim Manuel Robert Ritter Editors

A representative of the MSC student government has initiated a petition requesting "excess" monies generated by the Student Center not be used to fund AHEC programming that duplicates or parallels activity programming by Auraria's three institutions. The petition, introduced by student senator Richard Link, suggests using the "excess" funds to help in construction of an Auraria multi-level parking structure. According to state statutes, the Auraria board can retain excess funds for the improvement or cr eation of campus facilities.

Link began the petition in the wake of continuing controversy concerning funding of a Student Center-sponsored activities program. The controversy first surfaced in early September when the Student Center announced its "By Word of Mouth" lecture series. At that time, after representatives from the three institutions claimed they hadn't been consulted about the programming, the Student Facilities Policy Council voted to censure the Student Center. The SFPC, a board made up of student government representatives and the activities directors from Auraria's three institutions, is charged in part with approving funding and policy-making of the Student Center.

The Auraria Board of Directors did not act on the censure letter during its monthly meeting in October, according to several members of the SFPC. At a p ress conference Oct. 26, members of the SFPC and Link reiterated their complaints about lack of cooperation on the part of Student Center director Cary McManus. Bruce Williams, UCD activities director, said there are two issues that members of the SFPC want addressed. "Should the Student Center do programming that duplicates that of the other three institutions? And should the bond fee be used to pay for these activities?" Williams asked. SFPC members also say the refusal of the Student Center to identify the source of

funding for the programming and the identity of the program coordinator demonstrates lack of cooperation on the part of AHEC. Board member Dan Becker said the underlying principle is whether operation of the Student Center is a democratic process or a monarchy. SFPC members said the Auraria Board will reconsider the censure letter at its December meeting and if no action is taken then, SFPC will take it to the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, which has ultimate authority over expenditure of higher education funds. Becker promised that the SFPC will pursue the issue until there is a satisfactory resolution. "We're gonna make noise. I just hope it's D the right kind of noise," he said.

Center director defends new position C. Patrick Cleary

Student leaders and activity directors charge that the Student Center, and in particular director Cary McManus, steamrolled an activities budget past the governing board of the center last spring. In an attempt to shed some light on his side of the story, McManus provided The Metropolitan copies of minutes of Student ' Facilities Planning Committee meetings from April 13 to June 29, during which the budget of the Student Center was considered and approved by the SFPC. Prior to the budget process, McManus added a line item to the 1987 -88 budget, creating a classified position involved in the production and management of special projects and activities for Auraria. The idea for the position and the program, McManus said, came about because of student interest expressed last year. The new position the SFPC is concerned with received $23,845 in funding. - McManus said he needed an additional $14,000 to create the position. He said funding came from a reduction of $3,500 in the director budget, a reduction of $500 from the SFPC budget and $1,100 from the custodial budget. The game room budget was

increased by $100. The additional $9,000 came from increased revenues last year. McManus said revenues were up $17,000 last year . The center had projected an increase of $3,500 and attributed the increase partially to an easy winter on the heating budget. All figures resulting in the creation of the line item ar e in the 1987-88 budget, approved by the SFPC on May 4, according to the minutes. At that meeting, the SFPC indicated they would approve the budget "with a stipulation that a feasibility study be done for the proposed new special projects position," according to the minutes. On May 11 McManus presented the study. SFPC members passed a motion that the position be hourly or an internship, an idea that went against the recommendation of the feasibility study. McManus said he went to the board with what he thought was the best way to staff the center and recommended the classified position be created. Both recommendations were submitted to AHEC, which approved the Student Center budget, including the creation of the classified position, on July 13, he said. Although the position has not been filled, the special projects coordinator reports

directly to the Student Center assistant director. And the feasibility study calls for communication between the position and student activity groups. The study states, "The program portion of the position is not intended to replace those responsibilities of an individual institutional activities offices. It does reflect possible quad-institutional functions, if those offices desire to propose tt> become involved with the presentation, etc." Student leaders complain of a lack of communication from the Student Center, but McManus said he feels the Student Center programming is justified. "I think the campus needs all kinds of different things to attract students. I would like to review if conflicts between our program and theirs exist, but I don't think there is," McManus said. He said his staff, which includes hourly students who operate the front desk, are disturbed by some of the changes levied by the student groups. "We feel the role of higher education is to recruit and attract students to the state and to retain those students," he said. Student leaders say they do not know who is running the position or how much money is being spent, but Student Center Assistant Director Barb Weiske said she

currently is doing the scheduling for the Center. Weiske said students involved with the front desk have been conducting informal student surveys about the type of programming they would like to see. 'Tm new at this. I admit it is a primitive method," she said. In the past couple of weeks she said she sat down with the activities directors. "I hope we are on the right track now," she said. Weiske's figures indicate the "By Word . of Mouth" lecture series has cost $12.5 in advertising; contractual services for the Music Extravaganza have cost $1,500 to $2,500; EUin Days is expected to cost $2,000 to $4,000; the Madrigal F easte will cost $3,000 to $4,000; the faculty and staff art exhibit may cost between $375 and $800, depending on the amount of advertising; the Tomorrow's Campus exhibit, $150; World Friendship Festival, $350; Campus Awareness Week, rescheduled for Nov. 5, $500; and the opening Friday Edition barbeque cost $800. "We keep our ears open for student interests that can't be planned in advance," she added . D

Committee says tuition for Dravo purchase unlikely C. Patrick Cleary f

Reporter

A committee charged by the Colorado Legislature to look at the long-range planning of state-owned buildings told members of the UCD administration the university's proposal to purchase the Dravo building, partially through student tuition, will not receive the committee's recommendation at this time. Legislative Capital Development Committee chairwoman Sen. Clare Traylor, RJefferson County, said the committee was asked for comment and will pass along its advice to the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE), which will make a final decision on the proposal Nov. 5. Throughout the Oct. CZ7 hearing on Capitol Hill, committee members expressed concern about using tuition money to pay for

buildings. UCD Chancellor Glendon Drake said he had the same reservations at first but said the university currently uses tuition to pay the $600,000 annual rental fee for space in the building, located east of the main campus, across Cherry Creek. Several other education officials also present at the hearing, including representatives from Auraria Higher Education Center and CCHE, said they feel the development committee carries a lot of weight and expect the proposal to be turned down next week. Traylor said UCD's 30-year lease purchase proposal "is a public policy consideration and is, to most of our knowledge, beyond the bounds of what tuition has been used for in the past." Committee members also said that because no master plan for the AHEC facil-

ities exists, they are unsure of a clear direction the schools are taking as they attempt to accommodate growing student needs. "If we want Auraria to grow we must plan together,"Trayler said. Even if growth is through the purchase or construction of buildings a sense of cooperation among the three schools must be maintained. "Planning must come together or we are destroying the concept we tried to create," she said. AHEC Executive Director Morgan Smith told the committee the U CD people deserve credit for attempting to find a solution to their space needs. "It is the only immediate solution and I'm convinced it makes better sense than other proposals (such as renovation of existing facilities), but I would like to see us get back to the east bank issue of control and management," Smith said.

Smith said he was suprised at the committee's reaction to the proposal. After the hearing he said he would like to see the Auraria institutions look to fill space needs on a joint basis. The committee also heard Rick Pederson, chair of a citizens' group appointed to look into financial aspects of the Dravo proposal and best use of the other UCD facilities, submit his report. Pederson, a real estate broker with Frederick Ross in Denver, said that from a financial standpoint purchasing the Dravo building for $12 million may be the best move, provided the state is willing to get into the risky world of real estate. • The citizens' group also considered renovating the three buildings (the East Classroom and the Tramway Tower buildings) or renting them. Pederson said the rental continued on page 5

Students wanted to fight for better air Mlryam Wiley Reporter The fight against the invisible enemy begins Nov. 2 and Auraria students will be asked to join the fight. When the Better Air Campaign starts once again in Denver, new efforts will begin on campus to encourage students to help lower the carbon monoxide levels in the atmosphere. Carbon monoxide, often confused with the visible brown cloud, is actually invisible and odorless, but still a hazard to everyone's health. The BAC, now in its fourth season, is an effort to make breathing safer during those winter days when the air quality can get to extremely poor levels.

This time, the campaign will last three months instead of two. Besides asking metro-Denver residents not to drive once a week and on high pollu · tion days, the BAC will be asking people not to bum wood and to use oxygenated fuels in their cars. The mandatory use of oxygenated fuels will begin in January. On campus, the big change will be to make everyone aware of high pollution days. "There will be an alert system throughout the campus to notify the students about the conditions and to encourage them to leave their cars at home," said Randy Ready, AHEC transportation coordinator. "This will be done through posters put on campus buildings and parking lots,"

Ready said. But before those high pollution days, a major carpool campaign will be taking place. "Students will notice volunteers holding placards and alerting people to the fact that the campaign has started," Ready said. There will b e posters in every building and increased activities at the booth on the main floor of the Student Center in order to help students understand what carpooling really is. "It's free, there's no obligation to do it every day; you can do it once or twice a week," Ready said. "It's worth a try." "If your schedule is regular, like eight to five, we can match you with people that commute to downtown offices," Ready added.

The daily fee for carpoolers in any attended campus parking lot is 75 cents. Students will also be encouraged to ride the bus more often, Ready said. "We11 be offering a free bus pass through a monthly drawing throughout the campaign," Ready said. But those will be the only incentives for free rides. RTD will not be offering any special prices during the campaign. "Last year two things happened: we didn't get any increased ridership that we could attribute to (the discounts) and it cost $600,000 in lost revenue," said Diana Yee, manager for Marketing Communications • at RTD. Students will get their usual 15 percent off the regular rate, Yee said. continued on page 6

Senate concerned about campus changes Shlrley Roberts Reporter Morgan Smith, executive director of AHEC, spoke to the MSC student senate during its biweekly meeting Oct. 21, addressing issues from expansion of the Physical Education building to Auraria's parking problem. Expansion of the Physical Education building must be considered because more UCO students ""ill use the building when the replacement building opens, he said. A referendum to raise funds for the possible expansion will probably be held in spring 1988.

Smith also said the University of Colorado is still c,onsidering purchasing the Dravo building if a proposal to increase tuition to pay for the building is approved. "This is a first. Never done before in Colorado - using the student tuition to pay for a building,'' Smith said. Smith also talked about the effect of the Auraria Parkway construction on campus. "Some of it is going to b e messy. The bulk of it will begin in the spring and, hopefully, be completed by the summer. "We will need student support and understanding as we go through this process," Smith said. 'Nhen the campus is self-contained b y

the finished parkway, expansion in the future would logically be to the west, Smith said. He said he plans to talk with Phillip Anschutz, owner of the land west of the campus, to see what future plans - and price - Anschutz may have for the land. Smith said some business owners along Wazee Street are unhappy about the construction because they will lose some of their parking and business may be disrupted. City officials are trying to find alternatives to accommodate parking during the construction. Smith plans to bring RTD board memb ers into the situation to see if b etter ser-

vice for students - especially during the construction period - can be developed. "It's a major concern of mine to make a major effort with RTD,'' Smith said. Another possibility might be a joint shuttle service between the Tivoli and Auraria. "It will be critical to have the Tivoli to participate in this effort," he said. "When this is done," Smith said, "I think we will have much more of a campus, and an attractive one, as well." As for parking, Smith said a new feasibility study is now b eing done to determine what students want - parking lots or a parking garage. D

MSC hears proposal Build 1ng Debra Schluter Reporter

A "what-if' proposal to consider letting· UCD join the proposed MSC Student Legal Assistance Program was brought to the MSC Student Affairs Board chairman last week. David Conde, chairman of the SAB, told the board members Oct. 26 that he had met Oct. 22 with Bruce Williams, UCD's director of Student Services, at Williams' request and had briefly discussed UCD joining MSC's Legal Assistance Program. "I went to Conde and said 'let's talk about the possibilities,' " Williams said. "There is no reason to even think about it as an option if ~ey (MSC) are not interested." UCD's program, which MSC students had access to, has been inoperable since June 30 because of funding cuts, Williams said. At the Oct. 26 meeting Conde said he told Williams that in the spirit of cooperation the SAB would consider UCD involvement in the program under the fol1owing conditions:

• That UCD involvement would not reduce the program's ability to serve MSC students. •That UCD present a serious offer to the board. • That start-up times would be compatible. "My concerns are that MSC students get the best service, the same service they would get without UCD involvement," Conde said. "Whenever you deal with more than one institution, the temptation is to do a job for more folks with the same a.m ount of money. You can do that to a certain extent - but it will not be done here at the expense of MSC students." The spring start-up time is another important issue, Conde said. "Our program will be initiated in the spring. It is important that the MSC program is not held up because of this." Williams seemed very agreeable, very understanding of MSC's stand, Conde told the board. "Providing UCD is serious, they will be considered seriously," Conde said. "I told Williams we would be happy to listen to them."

SCAB helps clubs Pam Rivers Assistant Editor

The Student Center Advisory Board, unable to determine what student clubs and organizations are exempt from application procedures for on-campus office space, decided that all student groups desiring space should file applications before the Oct. 30 deadline as a safety precaution. In the past, administrative programs such as student activities organizations. were exempt from application requirements, said Dan Becker, SCAB chairman. But student groups that want a better chance of securing space should take nothing for granted, he said. "We don't want to run the risk of displacing a group or organization," he said. Becker said there is no guarantee clubs and organizations will get the space requested. The board should finish its review process before December, which will give groups time to appeal the decision, he said.

'

Another issue at the Oct. 27 meeting concerned guidelines for booking rooms in the facility. Current policies state that events sponsored by recognized student organizations, clubs or student activities programs have priority in securing rooms, usually at no cost. Becker said the question still remains as to what constitutes a "recognized" student group and who decides what the parameters a group must fall under to be considered for an on-campus event. Does responsibility belong to the Student Center, the Auraria Higher Education Center, or one of the three institutions on the Auraria campus? Becker asked. "Ideally, each institution (MSC, CCD, UCD) should determine what groups they recognize by providing a list of their clubs and organizations," Becker said. The board also began reviewing the manual for the centralized ticket service booth. Even though the board perceives the booth to be a valid service, it questions language in the manual that states the service should be mandatory and located in one primary area. 0

market is unstable right now and because the three buildings are valued at only $5 million, it would be more economical to go the route of demolition rather than renovation. Current pricing indicates that it will cost the state $225,000 a year to maintain the three buildings when they are vacated at the end of the year. Traylor said she would rather pay the upkeep money than jump into a hasty decision. Pederson said if the state gets involved in property purchases, "control of real estate should not lie in a particular agency. It should go to some higher authority." Dick Ross, director of capital development for CCHE, told The Metropolitan two weeks ago the tuition concepts presents quite a dilemma in the state. He said Aurora Community College and Pueblo Community College, both with space needs, are awaiting the outcome of · the CCHE decision and said they will follow suit if the UCD Dravo proposal is approved. "As I see it, the Auraria campus is a 'condominium' where three institutions have access to space depending on particular needs. This new concept is kind of like a subdivision plan," Ross said. "With all this fussing over the naming of buildings and boards, I get a sense of UCD wanting to take over the place," he said. Chancellor Drake argued that if the university doesn't purchase the building, "we will be putting more out for rent and will be controlled by the market." D

Stress: Can you deal with it? Pollution Kerry Manion Reporter

Imagine living in a cave thousands of years ago. Feeling hungry, you grab your spear and head outside to hunt. Suddenly a saber-toothed tiger leaps at you from behind a rock. What do you do - run or fight? Whatever the decision, you experienced a reaction that still exists today. Stress. "The original purpose for stress reactions in our body is no longer necessary," said Pam Kesson-Craig, director of the UCD Center for Women's Resources, during a stress management workshop at the St. Francis Interfaith Center Oct. 21. The stress workshop, sponsored by the Center for Women's Resources, is third in a series of four workshops geared toward people re-entering college. But KessonCraig, who holds a master's degree in psychology, said the workshops are suitable for any college student or business professional. The previous two workshops focused on coping with change and assertiveness training. Kesson-Craig said the stress, which triggered fight or Aight responses in ancient man, today "keeps building inside and there's no where for it to go." And this can lead to problems. She said the long-term effects of even moderate levels of stress can be very hard on the body. Possible problems include ulcers, migraines, hypertension, heart disease and suppressed immune systems. She said while many health problems are

not this severe, many people lead their everyday lives with a chronic "icky feeling" related to stress. "Some people are so used to having a certain physiological reaction, they're not even aware of it," said Kesson-Craig. Because of this, many people are not aware of their stress either. "I really encourage you to start paying attention to your body," she added. Stress does not need to be a problem, though. Kesson-Craig said she believes people can take positive steps to control it. She named three strategies for stresssufferers to try. She described a mental strategy developed by psychologist Albert Ellis. It revolves around the idea that we talk to ourselves many times in counterproductive ways. "The problem is not the situations out there that happen to us, but the way we define those situations for ourselves and the way we talk about those situations to ourselves," Kesson-Craig said. "If you can change the self-talk, you can change the way you respond to certain situations." She used an example of a student receiving a poor grade on an exam. That person might tell herself that she's a terrible student and a worthless person. "When you start catastrophising that event, then the chances are very good you're going to have a stress reaction," Kesson-Craig explained. "Whereas if you d escribe that event differently to yourself, you may have some-

what of a stress reaction ... but it won't be nearly as severe." Another stress-management strategy she suggested emphasized feelings and emotions. "You may find out that you've cut all the fun out of your life. Your life may have gotten too narrow. You can't live that way - happily - for long." she said. "It's real easy to get out of touch with those parts of our lives that have a tremendous amount of value and add a lot of richness. "When we start cutting those pieces out of our lives, we have feelings about that,". she said. Kesson-Craig explained that people may generically group those feelings and call them stress. But what they really need to do is acknowledge and label these feelings in order to act out solutions. The final strategy involves people taking care of their bodies by eating right and exercising. "We're really divorced from how our bodies are doing and feeling," she said. "We expect them to just work for us. "We operate on unbelievably pathetic quantities and qualities of fuel, most of us. When we're stressed , we do that even more." Along with nutrition, Kesson-Craig said exercise is one of the first things people sideline when feeling stress. "We get into periods where the Jongest walk we take is from the car to the office. Our bodies are not made to sit in offices all day," she explained. o

Campaign conllnued from page 4

But with or without special bus prices, people will be asked to leave their cars home more than ever. "Last year we expected 15 to 20 high pollution days and we had 10. This year we expect 20 to 25," said Ann Grady, Better Air Campaign coordinator. The campaign goal for 1987 is to reduce carbon monoxide levels by 15 percent until December 31. Nine percent is expected to come from no-driving on high pollution days, as well as on designated days, Grady said. The other six percent should come from woodbuming bans on high pollution days. Since metro-Denver drivers were expected to drive 32 million miles daily, the Better Air Campaign hopes for a voluntary reduction of 2.5 million miles daily by the end of 1987, she said. In any circumstances, federal standards will not be met this year. "The problem is much more severe than what was originally thought to be," Grady said. "But EPA is telling us that they'll not impose federal sanctions in the area as long as we are making every effort to keep carbon monoxide levels down," she added. Thirty million dollars a year in federal highway funds would be lost for Denver if those sanctions are imposed. O

ASMSC, can you lend me a hand?

I have a question for the Associated Students of Metropolitan State College. Why can't you probe deeper into an issue that continues to plague MSC students, those with the Student Financial Aid Office blues? These people need a hand. And ASMSC has seemed to accept the administration's reasons for the financial-aid mishap without question. Long lines. confused financial-aid counselors and an under-staffed department have all contributed to one unnecessary, massive headache. I admire the genuine concern this governing body gives to issues affecting MSC's student populace,

has been an incomparable burden on those students frustrated with a system that threw their financial livelihood into question with the delays. College administrators should remember to treat MSC students, and all students for that matter, like consumers of a commod ity: a higher education. What would happen if these consumers took their business elsewhere? Wou ld we even need a student government? If ASMSC is as concerned about student issues as they have been in the past, then why not petition the college administration for immediate remedies to a critical situation? I think the words of a UCO student, who was in and out of that institution's f inancial-aid office in less than 10 minutes and observed the situation in MSC's offices next door, best sums up the gravity of this problem. "They always have a long line." Pam Rivers Assistant Editor

addressing anything from space allocation for clubs and organizations to the college curriculum. So why has this organization that could be a strong shoulder for these troubled students - and I include myself here - turned its back? I recently waited for 40 minutes in a line of students just to arrange an appointment with a financialaid counselor only to wait another hour and 30 minutes to see someone. The administration of this college is staffed with well-educated and well-paid professionals whose job is to accommodate our educational needs. This year's financial-aid fiasco, which is still unresolved,

Letters Controversy not just petty Dear Editor, At the risk of belaboring the controversy concerning the Student Center's special programming, I wish to offer you and your readers a few words that I feel are both relevant and pertinent to the issue. First, it should be stated that the representatives that (I believe) your associate editor refers to in his October 23 editorial are members of the Student Facilities Policy Council (SFPC). This council is made up of students and activities directors from each of the three educational institutions on cam~us. Additionally, these representatives are charged, in part, with the task of lending the AHEC executive director and his staff with a tri-institutional point of view concerning what services, programs, policies and procedures of the Student Center are of benefit to the students on this campus. In general, these viewpoints have been important, invaluable and influential to the AHEC directors. Why? Well, how else will AHEC and the Student Center directors know if they're doing a poor, adequate or exceptional job at serving students' needs? Second, the cooperation called for in the aforementioned editorial has been the backdrop for all decisions concerning the Student Center in the past. Only when the Student Center chose to side-step this cooperative decision-making process did the members of the SFPC cry foul. The Center has arbitrarily decided what special programs are of value to the campus and at no time has the SFPC been consulted about any specific programming nor the policies and procedures which might govern them. Yet special programs, i.e. the "By Word of Mouth" lee-

ture series & a yet un-named music series, are in existence. Now, are these issues petty? I think not. Third, the petition orchestrated by the ASMSC student government, although addressing the same issue, is an effort that the SFPC is not involved in. It is one alternative for the expenditure of profits derived from the food, vending and meeting room services of. the student facilities. However, alternatives such as additional Student Center space, remodeling of the Mission and Mercantile, improvements to the institutional club/organization areas and numerous others, are also viable and deserve consideration. Shouldn't these concerns take precedence over the creation of a new lecture or music series? Shouldn't students', faculty and administrators' abilities to conveniently secure a parking space be guaranteed first? I say "YES!" to both questions. Finally, I would hope that your editors and reporters strive to obtain all the facts before publicly rendering an opinion. Had your associate editor consulted with members of the SFPC first, I think he might have perceived this controversy as being more than petty and the SFPC's complaints more substantive in nature. Indeed, had the Student Center sought to consult with SFPC before arbitrarily acting as they saw fit, there would never have been a controversy. And until this happens the SFPC will continue to fight for the rights of the three institutions and their students to have a say about what happens on this campus. Dan A. Becker SfPC councllmember

SFPC urges cooperation ..

Dear Editor: Upon reading the October 23, 1987 issue of The Metropolitan, I must admit to being-taken aback by the comments of one, Mr. Robert Ritter. Having been aware of Mr. Ritter's attendance at the Student Facilities Policy Council (SFPC) meeting, I was under the assumption that Mr. Ritter was aware of the grave nature of the proceedings. To say that I do not appreciate cavalier journalism is a faulty assumption; it is just that from The Metropolitan, I have come to expect something a lighter shade of yellow. I realize that Mr. Ritter is in a position to comment on his opinions of the SFPC, but I feel he could do more of a service to his readers if he would first relate the concerns of our body. Then he could opinionate on whether or not the SFPC really does have the best interests of students in mind. Recently, the administration of the Student Center . Ult

has initiated two programs, the "By Word of Mouth" lecture series and the ticket booth located in the Student Center, that the SFPC considers to be a questionable use of student fees. We agree that they are both great ideas, but we wonder if there might not be a better use for student fees. Be assured that we have the students best interest in mind because after all, we are students ourselves. To reduce our concerns to the level of "squabbling" is an injustice to not only our concerns but also to students in general. By the way, Mr. Ritter, the word "cooperate" is also in our dictionary and we would like nothing more than to have a positive, working relationship with the Student Center. We just happen to believe that losing our institutional sovereignty is a steep price to pay. Theresa M. Kascaak, SFPC Chair

Trick One of the original ideas behind Halloween was the concept of "trick-or-treat." Well, it seems that over the past few years people have gotten away from the idea of "trick" and have relied heavily on the treat, i.e., parties. Well, for those of you who miss the iJea of having some jokes to go along with your partying, here are some: l. Take all of your friends for a ride in your car and then tell them you hope the wheel doesn't fall off again. Then mention something about masking tape.. .. 2. Ask your boss if he thinks his wife is good in bed, then disagree. 3. Call up Montgomery Ward and order several hundred dollars' worth of merchandise. Then ask if you can pay with your Sears card. 4. Co to a wedding and when the pastor asks if anyone objects, say yes because you think the couple would have ugly children. 5. Become a waiter and keep asking your guests if the food tastes okay. If they become suspicious, tell them you weren't sure if you got all the paint off. 6. Co into a vegetarian restaurant and demand a big, juicy steak. Rare. 7. Co to a Broncos football game and wear a Raiders hat. 8. Take a rifle to the zoo and keep asking where the deer are. 9. Hire a taxi from Boulder to Colorado Springs and sing Tex Ritter songs for the whole trip. \\ ben you arrive, tell the cabbie you're all out of money, but you do have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. 10. Call your wife at work and ask her the best way to remove blood stains from the carpet. 11. Offer someone a thermometer and after they've had it in their mouth a few moments, tell them you forgot to wash it after the baby had it. 12. Co to a topless bar and start pointing and laughing. 13. Instead of giving candy to children, drop a dentist's business card in their bags. 14. Walk into an expensive fur shop and start asking if anyone has seen your kitty. 15. Co 路to an optometrist and try on every pair of glasses he has and then tell him you've decided on contact lenses. 16. Get into a crowded elevator and between floors - proclaim that you're going to be sick. 17. Co to the airport carrying your luggage and a parachute. 18. Have a "bob for watermelons" party. 19. Call Domino's and have some pizzas delivered to Pizza Hut. 20. Ask your editor what "libel" means. - Eric "Soon-to-Be-Fired" Mees

Cameras spook. Laurence C. Washington Reporter

\\bat began as a routine photo assignment in WC 231 for The Metropolitan has turned into a mystery, where the answers seem bigger than the questions. On Oct. 19, I was in the company of Metropolitan photo-editor Dale Crum when he photographed MSC instructor Don Thompson's English 101 class. Later, as the film was developing, we discovered the pictures taken in Thompson's class had somehow been ruined. The developed film revealed that all the WC 231 exposures were streaked down the middle. "I can't understand why that would happen right in the middle of the film like that," said Crum. "All the pictures came out on either end. It's like someone opened the back of the camera, or there was some kind of light leak." Crum changed film brands and cameras and made a second attempt to photograph Thompson's class. As we entered the room Crum said he felt nauseated. He fough~ back the illness long enough to get the shots, but dashed for the men's room as soon as the last one was taken. I waited for him in the hall. When he finally emerged, he was pale and shaking. I helped him back

H~oween marks the turning way mark, of a year divided

into two seasons: the joyful spring/summer season of life and the fall/winter season of sickness and death, Key said. "Trick-or-treating, the giving of sweets to children, is a tradition that recognizes this," Key said. "High infant mortality rates prompted the giving of the season's last, sweetest apples to the children - treating them - while they were still around." Wiccans are peaceful creatures, Key said. They won't even cast a love spell because it would be interfering with someone's free will. "These guys are marshmallows - harmless," said Carl Rauschke, gesturing toward the wiccans. Rauschke, a UCD professor of humanities, spoke on Satanism, although he is by no means a practitioner. The social and spiritual unrest in the world has caused many people to seek reassurance in new religious orientations, which have roots in ancient European religious traditions, Hal Mansfield, a cult specialist, said. Cults are not bad or dangerous, he said, unless they inhibit freedom of thought, iso1ate members, or use violence or deception. Cults tend to attract people from 18 to 25 years of age, or the elderly, he said. There are four general types: political, neoChristian, Hindu-east, and the occultSatanism. Satanism, Mansfield said, is not associated with witchcraft, a common misconception. Satanism is not really associated with anything in particular, except for power

and the glorification of self, Rauschke explained. "There are no experts on Satanism - it does and it doesn't have a history. It is a complex, underground ~rientation that is hereditary to a certain degree." Rauschke certainly doesn't mean hereditary in the genetic sense, however. "It's like being born into a Mafia family - you don't go around talking about it." Satanism is the "complete devolution of Christianity," a growing movement of evil one-up-manship - a game of "unholier than thou" - a perversion that feeds off of the perversion of religion in modem times, he said. "It is rebellion against not just Christianity but against all authority. A destructive, dangerous process - a disease that emerges out of a religious culture." \l\fhat exactly is Satanism, you ask? It is better to ask what it is not, Rauschke said. "They should know that Satanists worship the god Lucifer, who is not the Christian devil," a wiccan said. Overall, some cults may be good, some may be bad, Mansfield said, but there is a general pathology across the board that is not good and is getting worse. People who get involved in these activities, even dangerous ones, are not bizarre or psychotic, Mansfield said. They are not any different from me. There I sat. I'd curse you, Rob Ritter, for making me sit through this, I thought - but I learned D something.

'Tm at a loss to explain what's happening," Crum said. "I can only think it must be the cameras. Something we've overlooked maybe." We decided to make a third and final attempt to photograph Thompson's class. But not before we had both cameras inspected at Waxman's. They gave both cameras a clean bill of health. Just to make sure, we shot a roll of pictures with each camera. The pictures came out perfectly. I was carrying Crum's camera bag when we entered Thompson's class'. I felt a little nauseated, but dismissed it as nerves. The nausea passed when Crum took his camera. As Crum tried to take the pictures he doubled over, pushed the camera into my hands and ran for the men's room down the hall. I fumbled with the camera and managed to snap several shots before I, too, became violently sick and had to leave. \l\fhen this final roll of film was developed, Crum and I received quite a start. We're not prepared to say what the object is that we finally captured on film, but the message is clear: no cameras in WC 231. D

His harem - only one wife came? - looked like a refugee from I Dream of Jeannie. This could be every man's fantasy if you can find a woman to cooperate. Anne Boleyn, one of King Henry Vlll's wives, and her executioner were a sight to lose your head over. She wore an old dress and a medieval-style hat with hanging veils. The Queen's companion wore black sweatpants, cape and boots, complete with · an unusually big ax. He wore a hood that could have been made out of an old T-shirt. Last but not least, the Count and Mrs. Dracula provided a bloody touch to the show's finale. Count Dracula looked like a stereotypical vampire. He wore a white shirt, black pants and long cape, sunglasses to keep out the deadly sunlight and those famous pearly white fangs. The missus wore a strapped black nightgown with a see-through nylon cape. She attempted to bite people in the audience. Kevon Storie, public relations coordinator for ARC, and Channel 12 planned the event to support ARC's metro-Denver offices through profits made from thrift stores. "We'd like to do it again next year," Storie said, as the crowd clapped and whistled. "It seems successful this time around.'! o

A variety of off-the-wall visitors passed through The Mission Oct. 21 to show off their attire in the third annual Association for Retarded Citizens (ARC) Value Village Halloween Fashion Show. Big deal, you say? Well, MSC students and employees from Value Village modeled costumes that anyone can make with a little money and a little imagination. With rock music pounding in the background, emcee Kurt Holzerberlein, a reporter from Channel 12 in Broomfield, announced the "bewitching" fashions. A Roman emperor walked through first in royal fashion with his lady slave. The emperor's clothing consisted of colored bed sheets, a thin robe, sandals and a ring of green leaves for the crown. His slave wore bed sheets and sandals. This would be a good idea for a toga party. A caveman walked in an "Alley Oop" manner. His garb was wild-orion skins. He also wore furry slippers and carried a wooden club in one hand. Shades of Disney magically glided by in the forms of Cinderella and .Peter Pan. Cinderella's gown looked more like a retired prom dress than a costume. Peter Pan's tunic must have been donated by the Jolly Green Giant. And he wore sweatpants instead of the usual tights.

According to witnesses, Ronald Moon, 46, and another man were in line in the South Classroom lounge holding coffee when an argument started. Ferguson said Moon was holding his coffee and returning to a table with an unidentified man following him, still arguing. The man threw his coffee in Moon's face, and Moon fell to the floor.

Missing in action: one Met reporter Shelly Barr Reporter

Despite a serious case of writer's burnout and a backlog of homework that could choke Tyrannosaurus Rex, I faithfully dragged myself kicking and screaming into The Metropolitan office last week to pick up yet another brain-scraping assignment. Colorful images of falling grade point averages danced in my head as a certain Metropolitan editor, who shall remain nameless to preserve her reputation as being merciful, dug through an accumulation of story ideas. "A small one, a small one," I pleaded on my knees. ''I've got so much homework ... " Editor X nodded sympathetically and continued sifting. A few moments later I was handed a 52-page press release from the March of Dimes Birth Defects Foundation announcing the Sixth Annual Dungeon of Terror. A haunted house?? Hey, this could be fun, I thought. Little did I realize that the assignment was a plot designed by the editorial staff to avenge the death of their Friday afternoon

deadline. I was framed. Someone told me I could turn it in on Tuesday morning! But I accepted the story with near relish and made plans to visit the haunted house that very night. The nightmare that followed went something like this: "Hi, my name is Shelly Barr. I'm a reporter for The Metropolitan, Metro's student newspaper. I need to talk to Pam Krider." (Pam Krider is the March of Dimes rep who was supposed to get me in for free.) The ticket taker behind the glass smiled at me with a strange gleam in her eyes. "Yeeeessss, Shelly, we've been expecting you," she said. "Pam will be right out." As I stood waiting outside the Dungeon entrance, a small Oriental girl at the front of the line suddenly plastered herself against a black wall, shaking her head furiously, with big rolling eyes. "No, it's scary!" she screamed, as she was dragged inside by a pack of denim-clad hoods. I stood frozen for a moment, thinking of backing out when a voice spun me around. "Hi, are you Shelly?? I'm Pam Krider."

"Hi," I said lamely, still thinking about the little Oriental girl. "Well, go ahead and run through and 111 meet you at the end." Run is right, I thought. I took a deep breath, shoved my fists deep into my coat pockets and stepped into the gaping maw of the Dungeon entrance and right into a dark forest. At the edge of the forest stood Little Red Riding Hood. No problem, she's one of the good guys, I thought. My conception of the sweet little fairy tale character was promptly shattered as she tore after me with fangs bared. But, a reporter is supposed to be tough,

and tough I am. I didn't lose it until I was cornered against a wall by a drooling werewolf. "My, what large teeth you have," I said. "All the b etter to eat you with," he cried as h e lowered his jaws onto my neck. I wriggled loose and was nearly knocked unconscious when I ran into a corpse dangling from a tree. "Be careful, or you'll be the next, my pretty," a voice squealed from behind. "I don't want to be next - aahhhhl" God, how do I get out of here? I must have taken a wrong tum because I ·ran right into the middle of the infamous shower scene from Psycho, where an old woman, Norm's mother, I presume, offered to take my eyes out with a pair of knitting needles. I declined the offer and sped past on hot feet. I didn't get far, thanks to a limbless corpse falling at my feet. I tripped over it and ran face-to-face into a bleeding, bodyless head sitting on top of an extended palm. "Kiss Freddie, or you11 hurt his feelings," Freddie's butcher pleaded. "Okay, but no tongues ..." D

----SPORTS Win brings title closer Karl Braun

Reporter

MSC's David Biondi charges a Regis player during the Rangers' 2-1 win Oct. 3.

League title on the line Robert Ritter Associate Editor

A chance to win or tie for the Rocky Mountain Intercollegiate Soccer League championship will be on the line for the MSC men's soccer team Oct. 31. The Roadrunners will meet the Air Force Academy, ranked 16th in ational Intercollegiate Athletic Association Division I, at the Auraria field at 2 p.m. An MSC win would clinch at least a tie for the Roadrunners, who could take the title with a victory over Colorado College Nov. 7 in their last regular season game. If Air Force prevails, the Falcons would

clinch the league crown outright. Head coach Bill Chambers said he expects a game similar to last season's 1-0 Falcon victory. "Chris Foster scored their only goal last year. I expect a low scoring game," he said. "When you get in a game this important, teams concentrate on defense. Chambers also said the Roadrunners, who have never beaten Air Force in a varsity game, should be ready for a physical struggle. "They're ranked and obviously they'll be a fit, physical team. We're looking at this as a real important game." D

A rare scoring combination provided the only goal in the MSC men's soccer team's 1-0 victory over Westminster College Oct. 23 in Salt Lake City. Senior goalie Doug Lazecki was credited with an assist on MSC's lone goal. Roadrunner D.J. Ruder, Metro's leading scorer, scored with five minutes left in the game on a punt from Lazecki. A conflict in starting time had the Roadrunners at the playing field an hour and a half before game time after a long road trip from Denver to Utah. "It was their homecoming and they were fired up," coach Bill Chambers said. "We played kinda' flat." The teams played an even game in the first half but in the second, Westminster didn't have possession of the b all more than twice, Chambers said. The win moved MSC one step closer to the Rocky Mountain Intercollegiate Soccer League title. The Oct. 31 game against the

Air Force Academy will be the deciding factor. " If they win, they clinch the title," Chambers said. "If we win and win the last game, we could win the league championship." The Roadrunners are 5-0-1 in the league. 'They (Air Force) play only seven league games, we play eight," Chambers said. "That could make the whole difference." Chambers said if the Roadrunners win, it will be considered an upset. MSC hasn't beaten Air Force in a varsity game in about 17 years. Chambers said that the team will be · fired up for the game. "You never know how to read the team, though," Chambers said. "They may look uninterested, but they can become intensely fired up." The Roadrunners lost a scrimmage game to Brigham Young 2-0 in the second game of the weekend. The Cougars scored both goals in the first half, but MSC managed to shut out BYU in the second half. D

Wins through frustration Renee Allen Reporter

Getting the ball into the goal has been a real problem for the MSC women's soccer team in their last few games, but they still manage to win. Metro shut out CU 6-0 in their last home game of the season Oct. 23. "We had lots of chances to score but we just weren't able to . But then in the second half we connected," coach Ed Montojo said. Sunday Metro barely slipped past Tulsa University 1-0 in a game at Colorado College. Metro dominated the game and outshot Tulsa 32-3, but had trouble putting the ball in the goal. "It was a real frustrating game because we weren't able to score. We let a lot of good opportunities get away from us," Montojo said. But Metro persevered and scored the

only goal 42 minutes into the second half on a shot by Jodi Lucero, who was assisted by Tonja Ridgeway. "If we had connected we would have won six or seven to zero against Tulsa. For that matter we outplayed DU (on Oct. 20) and should have won that game by about eight points, "Montojo said of the 1-0 double overtime game. "We've been in a rut where we can't put the ball in the goal, and it has kept the games a lot closer than they should have. We are just going through a drought right now," he said. The Lady Roadrunners go on a threegame road trip to Miami in the last week of their season to play the College of Boca Raton, Florida International University and Barry University, the seventh ranked team in the country. "I feel confident; we are playing really well. We're just not converting scoring chances," Montojo said. D

Women's volleyball

Metro moves to 2nd

Regis turned it around in the second game, taking an early seven point lead. But it didn't last for long as Metro rallied and came back to tie Regis 12-12 and went on to win the game 15-12. The third game was a repeat of the first with Metro dominating throughout. Johnson dominated at the net to lead the Roadrunners to victory 15-8. "We established control in the first game, and in the second we relaxed too much. But we came back after being down almost 10 points. And then the third game was just kind of demoralizing for Regis," Johnson said. "We were picked fifth and now we are in second. If we can beat UNC (Nov.11) we can tie the conference (for first place). We just have got to maintain the same momentum. We have shown a strong effort all the way through," Johnson said. Metro plays Eastern Montana College Oct. 30 at home. D

The MSC women's volleyball team rolled into second place in its division, casting a shadow on early season predictions of a fifth place finish. MSC was picked to finish fifth in a preseason poll by conference coaches. Metro went into the Oct. 26 game against Regis, tied for second place and came out victorious over the Rangers, with three straight wins. "This was a big win for us and I felt the kids played with a lot of intensity," coach Pat Johnson said. Metro dominated the first game with some hard-hitting faked spikes by Heidi Keyes and Diane Johnson, winning the game 15-7. "Julie Theander played really well in the first and third games; she made a major contribution as far as blocking and setting," Johnson said.
