Fornier cabhie . goes to the dogs

~

·Jim Manuel Editor

Mark Hamstra Reporter

For a taste of the Big Apple, try a hot dog. Not just any hot dog, but one of the ones :i.; that Harold Gewuerz (pronounced guhwertz) sells out of his mobile eatery, the Nova Doggie Too. It's not that his hot dogs are made in New York City (actually, some of them are) . It's the attitude and the humor of the 38-yearold ex-cab driver from New York that adds a dash of Manhattan to the Auraria campus. Gewuerz moved to Colorado in 1976 and began working whatever jobs he could find, from delivering propane to laboring · ; _on construction sites. Then, in April 1980, f something happened that would change l Gewuerz' life forever. Denver legalized ! f .-_ outdoor vending. "I was kind of unemployed at the time," Gewuerz explains. "I just borrowed some money from the bank and bought my first cart. It was great, an instant success." 1 That cart, which he set up at 16th Stre~t ill and Court Place, made so much money that he decided to buy a second cart. Gewuerz put that cart (the Nova Doggie) under the flagpole near the front of the Auraria Library. The Nova Doggie soon grew fat .on Aurarians' spare change and gave birth to • the Nova Doggie Too, which still chums out the boiled weiners on the center of campus. Today, eight years later, Gewuerz' customers still file up to his cart almost as fast as he can dish out one-liners. One gray-haired man, bundled in heavy winter garb on a chilly Monday morning, shivers up to the cart. "Coffee black, please," he reports. "Coffee black?" Gewuerz replies, sounding surprised. "Not coffee pink?" Another customer approaches, a young _. woman carrying a double armload of books.

Nova Doggla Too owner Huold Gawuarz 11rve1 one ol his 1pacl1ltles to a hungry customer. "A breakfast burrito, please." "A B-B?" he asks. He begins to sway back and forth slowly croons, Sinatrastyle, "A bee-beeee, oh ... a bee-beeee. You want a bee-beeee ... " He plucks one of the foil-wrapped burritos from its warmer, and places it, steaming hot, into her palm. She's not quite sure what to make of the whole scene, but she pays him anyway and walks away smiling. . One might think that Gewuerz misses the excitement and big-city hustle of New York. Not so. "I like a cow-town," he says. "Why do they want to make Denver into another Big Apple? There's only one Big Apple. They're making Denver into just another Dallas, another Houston. Iliked Denver's charm ... the ruggedness, the friendliness." Gewuerz says he prefers the Denver of • 10 years ago to the modem version.

"Downtown, before the (16th Street) Mall, it was great. They had all those old movie houses and lots of people walking around. Now they've just got places to try to get some yuppie money." Still, Gewuerz' plans do not include moving. He hopes to keep his cart on campus for another 3J~ years, when his contract with the state will expire. Then he hopes to bid on the Mercantile. 'Tve watched that place for years. I think I can manage it. Besides, I'd be working indoors," he says, stuffing his hands into the pockets of his down coat. The cold morning wears on. A tall man, about 26 or 27, pays Gewuerz for a cup of coffee with a five-dollar bill. "Can I keep the change?" the vendor asks him, innocently. The customer replies that he may not and walks away, like so many of Gewuerz' other customers, smiling. D

A plan to bring Ronald Reagan Jr. to campus. as a big-name draw for an all-day AIDS symposium was derailed when the planning committee admitted it couldn't raise the $10,000 needed to pay his appearance fee. "Given the time frame - only a few months- we didn't think we could get th~ funding," said Billi Mavromatis, Health ' Issues Committee member and assistant director of Allied Health. The symposium, planned for April 6 at the Student Center, is the brainchild of the Health lssues Committee. The committee · addresses ways to inform students of ~ important campus health issues. Reagan's fee was to be paid by MSC, UCD and AHEC. Gil Gutierrez, AHEC representative to the committee, said when he approaclted AHEC executive director Morgan Smith with theidea, Smith expressed reservations 1 aboutit. . "He (Smith) didn't think it was prudent to be spending $10,000 for a spea1cer when higher educationJs faced with tbeprospect of retuming money to the state," Gutierrez Said. I "We wanted a big-name person for the symposium 'so that we could get people's attention," said Zak Zoah, committee ; member. Reagan's speech would have provided the draw to attract students to other displays .•.sponS<fred by l??l AIDS.~awaren.~~s groul>c~ " that will still take part iti the symposium5t The committee will now try to Jure a , local speaker to.help dr.!.w more people t(} the symposium. ;;;'... :;i Mavromatis said there are students who are well-informed about AIDS and others ~ \\tho al:e-not

Stream of bad checks fo·rces cash-only policy Chad Morris Reporter

Attention bad check writers! The Student Center Advisory Board is on to you! The SCAB decided at its Jan. 26 meeting that, effective sometime next month, the Student Center ticket booth will operate on a cash-only basis. SCAB is a tri-institutional committee that reviews policies and procedures for the Student Center. The decision came after Gary McManus, director of the Student Center, complained that the ticket booth had lost $350 because of bad checks. The exact date of the change will be decided at the next meeting on Feb. 9. In its first meeting this semester, SCAB members discussed changes in ticket booth policy. Among the changes are: use of the AHEC

logo on tickets will no longer be mandatory, but encouraged; on-campus groups will be allowed to sell tickets through other outlets, not just the ticket booth; and the ticket booth will be allowed to impose a surcharge on tickets from off-campus groups, except the Denver Center for Performing Arts and the Denver Symphony Orchestra because of their proximity to campus. The board also decided that any revenues from surcharges be used to cover ticket booth operating and equipment expenses only. Chairman Dan Becker said that one reason for limiting revenues to the ticket booth was to avoid any question about what the money was being used for. After these issues were settled, it was agreed that Becker would prepare a final draft of the operating procedures to be voted on at the next meeting. D

Aurarla students wlll no longer be able to purchase tickets by check at the Student Center ticket booth. Bad checks have forced the new cash-only pulley change.

Part-time profs carry fight to trustees Robert Ritter Associate Editor

-_If you've ever passed a part-time MSC grofessor an _campu~ Qnd haven't recognized iiini or her. 1~s -not unu5ual _:_ they get little recognition. But a few of Metro's 450 part-time professors have set out to change that by taking their fight to Metro's governing board, the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges in Colorado. At a special meeting Jan. 2.'5 at Auraria, a representative from the Independent Faculty Council (IFC ) told the Trustees and its Commission of Governance and Personnel Welfare they are tired of "sifting flour and are ready to bake bread." The IFC was organized last April to "formulate the concerns of Metro's 450 part-time instructors." The Trustees formed the nine-member commission after House Bill 13.54 was signed into law last July 1, 1987, by Gov. Roy Romer. The bill, in effect, charged the Trustees

with a revision of its Handbook for Professional Personnel, which sets policy and procedure concerning faculty at Colorado's four state colleges - Metro, t>1e$a,. AQaiflS ~n.d Western. The revised handbook must be finished by May 1. MSC English professor Greg McAJlister, one of the founders of the IFC, presented the two main proposals his group would like included in the handbook. According to McAllister, they submitted the proposals "in plenty time, but they were apparently lost in the shuffle." So they took their suggestions straight to the Trustees. "We proposed two changes that we felt would improve the quality of education and our own status with minimal cost to the college." The first proposal calls for lifting the two courses, one department maximum imposed upon each part-timer. "\II/hen experienced teachers are limited to two classes, everyone suffers," McAllister said. " ... students have to deal with teachers who are new to the system; and the teachers

themselves have less time to focus on their classes because they have to shuttle between campuses." The second measure calls for giving the college the chance·to extend "permanent" status of part-time instructors if it chooses. "The idea would be that the school could, at some point, set up some kind of ladder system. Then if you work, say three years, and are classified permanent, you could maybe get partial benefits and a salary increase. That would give some kind of job security." Metro professor Rick Tarr, political science department chair and a member of the commission, said that a final draft has been ~ubmitted to the Trustees, but revisions are still possible. McAllister ended his speech by quoting a Greek adage:" ·He who doesn't really ""ant to bake bread sifts flour the whole day.' As academics we love to sift flour. But it's time for someone to tum the oven on ... Isn't it time to bake some bread?" Ben Avery, a part-time speech instructor, alluded to the lost proposals as he spoke to

The Student Affairs Board (SAB) unanimously approved funding Jan. 2.'5 that will give the MSC flight team $10,000, enabling them to attend April's National Interco1legiate Flight Competition in Monroe, La. This brings the team's total 1987 -88 funding allocation to almost $16,000. SAB co-chairman Dan Becker said that MSC's aerospace program has gained national recognition in the past and provided some excellent exposure for the school on a national basis, which is important for Metro. According to faculty advisor George McCrillis, initial funds of $5,000 were spent

to cover the costs of sending the 12-member team and a coach to regional competition at the Air Force Academy last October. "The money paid for room and board, flight suits, and trophies for the team members, as well as for transportation costs and preparations for the contests,"he said. McCriJlis called the upcoming national competition "the Super Bowl of intercollegiate flying." He said the additional funding will pay for airplane rentals for team practice after

the final team selection in February in addition to the usual travel expenses. ·The majority of it comes out of our pockets, though," said team captain Allen Floyd, whose code name is "Pretty Boy." "We had the school pay for about two hours of practice time per pilot. "The average student spends about 30 hours practicing for a specific event. That means the student is going to spend roughly $500 to $600 out of his own pocket during the entire preparation for a competition." Eleven regions, with 26 colleges attend-

the commission. .. We may not be lost but we certainly haven't been found," he said. He also emphasized that the part-timers are not happy they can't get tuition waivers to take courses as other school employees can. "The way it works down here, one of the new Vietnamese groundskeepers, who can barely speak English, can take upper division courses in Shakespeare for free.'' After the meeting, McAllister said he feels some school administrators' opposition to official recognition of the part-timers has hurt their cause. "They think it's their game and they make rules, but then they don't want to play," he said. Still, he said he's hoping for the best. "I think it was a real positive meeting. The nice thing about that (meeting) is that we were finally able to talk to the trustees. If we keep talking to them, we've got a D good chance."

ing, competed at the October regional. The Air Force Academy and Metro State placed first and second respectively. The win means Metro will be competing at the national level for the ninth year in a row. "The team as a whole has been doing better in the last two years at nationals,'' Floyd said. "In the past we hadn't fared as well, but it was a great learning experience for all of us. We've got lots of talent that we hope will pull through for us this time around.'' Floyd said the flight team represents students who are dedicated to professionalism in aviation. The team also promotes flight safety. "Plus, it's a great chance for us to compete D against the best!"

Still in limbo

Compiled by C. Patrick Cleary

Snow job Think Mayor Pena had problems removing snow from the streets? Auraria groundskeepers had to clear 60 acres of parking lots, not to mention a couple miles of concrete sidewalks that interconnect the campus. Now that's a lot of snow. But, the brightest spot for AHEC grounds manager Mike Thornton was that the heaviest snow fell during the break, thus avoiding a confusing situation he wishes not to think about. Thornton said 10 of his employees worked 20-30 hours overtime. Janitors, physical plant workers and all those smiling faces from Jefferson County Community Center for Developmental Disabilities all shoveled in to help clear the way to continued education at Auraria the week after Christmas. Rental of equipment, payment to the parking lot contractor, SaBell's , for snow removal, and overtime cost the department around $10,000, Thornton said. "When you push that much snow, it sometimes covers the sidewalks," he said. In the future, the contractor and the school should do a better job of coordinating the clearing of pedestrian pathways, he said . Thornton said he thinks the school also "did a pretty adequate job during the snowstorm that hit when school started especially when you consider there were 30,000 people walking around out there." Anyone with questions, compliments or complaints about the snow job can contact Thornton at 556-3260.

MSC decided to withdraw its request to create a new teacher education major last week to allow staff to come to an agreement on how to approach the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE, the state college governing board) for its approval. The proposed degree, called a Bachelor of Letters, Arts and Sciences, designed to replace the elementary education program which was dropped due to state-mandated guidelines, would require teaching major students to focus on a variety of subjects. MSC President Dr. William Fulkerson said because the scope of the degree is outside the current legislation of the CCHE, and because some staff disagree with the proposal, it has been tabled until a consensus at MSC can be reached.

Intensive English· classes SPRING to life at MSC Diane Gemma Reporter

l

The students stood with white-knuckled hands jutting from their pockets, kicking their heels and smiling their friendliest smiles to mask their uncertainty of the English language. Sudden bursts of laughter at shared words or experiences expressed hunger for new friends and a desire to learn. Students from France, Greece, Colombia, Indonesia, Kuwait and places in between have come together for the second semester of the Spring International Language Center at Auraria. The program, also referred to as Spring, consists· of five levels of intensive English classes in the St. Francis Interfaith Center Monday through Friday. The nine-week program began again Jan. 4 for 12 new students plus two who are continuing from last semester. This semester, only four of the five levels are being taught because none of the students tested well enough for the upper level, program coordinator Jeanne Hind said. Hind said Spring began at Auraria last .August but stu:ted in Coloi:ado at Arapahoe ·Community College in 1979 and has been a success there. Hind said the program there is wellknown in the "English as a Second Language" (ESL) teaching community. Several professionals involved in the program felt Spring would attract more foreign students to Auraria, hence bringing them into the regular programs offered by .\.1SC, UCD and CCD. Hind said she feels the first semester of the program at Auraria was also a success. "We plan on continued growth," she said, "mainly by word of mouth." The small classes spend mornings learning grammar, reading, writing and speaking. "Can you write that we get too much homework?" asked Peter Paulmann, a student from Germany. He spoke carefully and smiled mischievously at Hind. Afternoon classes, on the other hand, offer a myriad of activities such as working on a stud ent newspaper, discussing issues like the roles of women in the United States and evaluating articles from English newspapers concerning AIDS and terrorism. Students also learn through field trips, which inlcude hiking in the mountains, a tour of Coors brewery and an overnight excursion in Breckenridge. "Last semester the students made a strong group," Hind said. "One of the reasons we try to do extra activities is to make the students feel comfortable with each other." This semester they plan to go to the National Western Stock Show and the Ramses Il exhibit at the Denver Museum of Natural History. Spring is not part of the other institutions on campus and is funded by student tuition. The cost of the program is $1,350 plus fees for the nine-week period. The fees include housing, which is done mostly through host families and is arranged

'Menace' on loose Laurence C. Washington Reporter

by the program. Hind said that particular aspect has been very positive. "In terms of the families, they've been just super," Hind said. "They do an awful lot to make the students feel comfortable." Hind said most of the students who come to the program will go on to college. Some of the others w ill complete G.E.D.s, others have come simply to experience Colorado and brush up on their English. Spring is publicized through some European publications as well as brochures created by the program, Hind said. Spring will also serve as a teaching lab for UCD students in the ESL or bilingual master's program.

Afternoon classes offer a myriad of activities such as working on a student newspaper, discussing issues like the roles of women in the United States and evaluating articles for English newspapers concerning AIDS and terrorism.

Spring students, as well as some refugee groups, will serve as obse rvation classrooms. Hind said students previously observed classes at the ACC facility. She said that by having Spring on the Auraria campus, it will attract more teachers in ESL to the UCD master's program as well as bring more ESL teachers to Spring from Auraria. Mark Clark, department chairman for the language and culture programs of the UCD School of Education, said approximately 120 students will be using the lab at some point in their studies. o

Have you been approached on campus by a cabinet-maker in need of an assistant? If so, the Auraria Public Safety officials want to know, said Dave Rivera, Auraria Public Safety director. The suspect, dubbed the "Cabinet Maker," was arrested in 1984 for convincing female students to assist him in assessing the height of cabinets he was building for his mother, according to Rivera. He would ask them to stand against the wall and reach as if going into a cabinet. The man then pinned his victims to the wall with the intent of sexual contact. The "Cabinet Maker" has been spotted n campus this semester and has been asked by officials to leave, since he has no official business on campus, Rivera said. He is d escribed as a 6-foot-1-inch black male weighing 170 pounds, with mediu~ length hair. "We encourage anyone to contact us if they come into contact with this individual " Rivera said. ~

The show originally aired on radio station KTLK (now KOOL) as a 29-minute segment featuring one topic. Metro Medium also aired on KER (now KNUS) and KOA as well. Cook said the program has been adapted over the years to accommodate each station's target audience. Shows for KPOF, which is owned by Belleview (a Methodist college), are now directed to an audience that is mainly professional, female , educated and 18-30 years of age. "When Mr. Cook taught the class, each student did a segment that was 29 minutes long. Now it is in a magazine format with four different topics in the 29 minutes. With four different topics to produce, the students feel they are getting more experience," Craig explained.

-----OP-ED----Identity crisis: Is this college

I

real or what? ..

Student identity. No, I'm not talking about those silly little plastic cards with pictures that make us look like mutant convicts from another planet. What does it mean to be a student at Metro? What do you or anyone else think of when the.topic turns to MSC? One of the biggest criticisms that people have of MSC is that it isn't a real college- it doesn't have an identity of its own. What does that mean? Is my tuition money unreal? Are my outrageously expensive textbooks a figment of my imagination? Are the graduation agreements and subsequent diplomas only a waste of paper? Are the teachers merely on some unknown state welfare program where they are forced to babysit pseudo-students before they can pick up their meager checks? What, then, constitutes a real school - a real identity? Are real campuses only the ones with 100year-old ivy-covered brick buildings? (We've got the bricks.... ) And this school's only been around for 21 years. I don't know too many 21-year-olds that have all their stuff together yet. What about schools like Oklahoma and Nebraska? I've never actually heard of anyone attending either one other than to play or watch football. I'm sure they have great curricula, but I've never seen that reflected on any top 20 AP or UPI poll. Every so often, there is talk about trying to get Metro1nto a·bigger.sporting program to attract more students anti rnore money. That's all fine and dandy, but what about the education end of it? Instead of worrying about improving the quality of education around here, people worry about getting a new president, about the inane traffic problems,

----LETTERS _ _ _ _ _ __

WIN! WIN! WIN! IT'S E~~~! IT'S

FUN!

Cartoon by Joey Manfre about combining UCD and MSC and about changing the name of the school. I'll be the first to admit that we have real traffic and parking problems that need to be solved soon. I also agree that we need a president who's going to stay at least as long as the average student. No solutions from me, but I think we need to come up with some soon, so we can move on. But changing the name of the school? What difference is it going to make if I graduate from MSC or Denver State College (a possibility) if I get the same education? And why talk about merging the two schools into one? What's wrong with a little choice in our lives? Besides, it would cost a lot to get all the stationery changed anyway. Another identity problem that surfaces is that we (Metro students) just don't have our own campus. We have to share it with UCO and CCD. Don't get me wrong - two of the best classes I've had have been through the pooled class system with UCO. And community colleges have a valid place in our society, and CCD is one of the better ones. But we just don't have something we can call our own. Ask UCO students what they feel about the new

North Classroom. It was supposed to replace their asbestos-ridden East Classroom. But guess who has 60 percent of the class space during the day? MSC. I'm sure they feel real at-home. And Homecoming. A great concept, to be sure (it worked in high school, didn't it?). It's sometimes hard to feel at home, though, when you're trying to work a full-time job, juggle 16 hours of classes and have a social life with fellow students who live in Boulder, Aurora, Littleton and everywhere in between. So what's going to give Metro an identity? All of this. The parking problems and lunch at the Mere. The quest for a Division I team and a permanent president. The back-to-school-after-25-years student/housewife and the fresh-out-of-high-school 17-year-old sitting together in the same class. Just look around. It's all you. It's all MSC. But what's going to matter most about MSC a few years down the road? The education. People shouldn't have to ask "What's an MSC?". If you've learned what this school has to offer, the answer will be clear.

Group to boycott homecoming

..,.

Dear Editor: On January 29, 1988, the Metropolitan State College's Student Activities department is hosting a "Homecoming Bash." This event is designed to attract student club participation in support for the men's and women's basketball teams. However, the Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (MEChA), a club of Chicanos and Latinos at Metro State College won't be participating in this event. We are interested in being active with on-going club activities. The issue which MEChA is concerned about is that Coors is a major sponsor. Why is this an obstacle? M EChA has been a long time supporter of a boycott against Coors which has existed since 1967. Legal action and the boycott against Coors came about originally because of discrimination at the Coors brewery. There are virtually no Chicanos or Afro-American employees. Only as a result of legal action and the effect of the boycott did the brewery begin hiring minorities and pay more attention to hiring women. There has been more support for the boycott by the labor movement since 1976 when the Coors Brewery decertified the unions. Fired brewery workers have told stories of the vio.lations· of the employees' rights such -as periodic searches of personal property as well as when Coors required each applicant to submit to a polygraph test which forced people to respond to humiliating questions. This was also a way to screen out pro-union workers. Coors is now in the process of improving its image. The unions have temporarily called off the labor boycott in exchange for a chance to unionizing the plant. Coors is also making contributions to various organizations and sponsoring many events. In our estimation this is just a way to "BUY" a better

image. This only makes Coors seem different. The essence is still fundamentally the same. The principal family owners of the brewery are Joseph and William Coors. They are open advocates for conservative politics. Joseph Coors has been a personal advisor to President Reagan. In addition to being founder of the conservative Heritage Foundation, Joseph Coors is a member of prominent "far right" groups such as the American Conservative Union, Comm ittee for the Survival of a Free Congress, National Conservative Political Act i on Committee , Conservative Caucus and the John Birch Society. Much of the politics of these groups pose a direct threat to democracy and world peace. The conservative thinking of these groups and the Coors family have contributed to the continued discrimination against minorities in this country. The Coors family has opposed the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment (which would have granted formal equality to women) . The Coors family has also recently admitted to sending large sums of money to the Contras. As recently as 1984, William Coors made openly racist statements about Afro-Americans in public and in front of the media. He suggested that AfroAmericans had benefitted by coming here to the U.S. as slaves. Everytime you buy a Coors product or accept a Coors sponsorship of your event you are condoning racism and are contributing to Coors' right wing causes, including the funding of the reactionary Contras. MEChA can't in good conscience involve ourselves in this. Joe Navarro MEChA

A Semester itt MetT\1 Olbe £ttglattb From late August to early December, I went to London on a program sponsored by Metropolitan State College through the American Institute for Foreign Studies (AIFS). 1 went with approximately 300 other students from colleges in Colorado, Iowa, Nevada, Nebraska, Neu: Mexico and Wisconsin . C onsideri11g the mentalities of a number of my roommates, going alone might have been a wiser choice. Anyhow, here are a few highlights from my trip.

Steve Brown Special to the Metropolitan

Drinking in Great Britain \.\'hen I went to England last August, I didn't knO'w what to expect in the way of social customs, mating rituals or store surveillance. About the only thing I was aware of was that drinking wasn·t allowed in the grandstands during an English football game. When I heard this, I was appalled, for it went against nature to forbid men from drinking during bloody, physical soccer matches. I had to figure out why this drinking was banned. Once I was settled in my residence-to-be for the next 3JI months, I went off in search of an answer. ~1y first stop was a local pub. which warn·t saying anything since ever)

street in London has a pub. Inside, after getting lost in the smoky haze for a few minutes, I found a bartender. "An ale," I demanded, throwing some of that funny English pound currency they forced me to carry. I sat at the bar and he brought me an ale. I looked at the color - it was brown (or was that a tnck of the smoke?). Anyhow, with the quest burning in my veins, I downed the liqu;d. EEEE-YUUUCCCHHllHHHHH!!!!!!' No wonder the Brits don't allow the drinking of this beverage at soccer matches - it was terrible. Having to consume that liquid would probably set any fan to rioting. But wait! That was just ale. There was still lager and other foreign beers to try. Ha 1 Just because I met with a bad taste my first time around was no reason to expect that of every non-American beer. What a sap I was. I spent the better part of a week with a hangover and a foul disposition to anything that even vaguely reminded me of a Heineken. Every single beer tasted worse ,than the last one. And when I finally went back to an imported Budweiser, my taste buds collapsed and I honored the porcelain princess. Coming out of my hangover, I could not understand why all my roommates seemed to enjoy that hideous English ale. Was then• something I had missed? Should I ha' t

taken a lick of salt before guzzling ... no, no - wrong drink. That curiosity-bug had me again, so I went back to the pubs. They were typically English - filled with men smoking up a storm and downing pint after pint. Plus, I was an outsider (and I dressed the part. too) and they only snobbishly tolerated me. I was still missing out on something, so when the next weekend rolled around, I went pub-hopping with my roommates. Wouldn't you know it, we came all the way to England and ended up going to Australian saloons. Once inside, I understood why my roommates went to the Aussie bars - the patrons were nicer - on par with Americans. Our two groups got along great! We joked, we laughed and I watched my roommates get soused on cheap booze (I was still recovering from my last binge). If you ever get the chance to jet to London, check out the Australian pubs they·re much more entertaining than the English ones. In early October, IO friends and I ditched school for a few days and headed to Edinburgh, Scot land . I know we shouldn't have cut classes, but it was take a test or endure an eight-hour hellish bus ride. Personally, I didn't study, so the choice was an obvious one. Besides, mne of tho~e 10 friends were girl~. You figure it

out. The night life in Edinburgh, as in London, consi~ted o f pub-hopping. I was permanently off beer - never again 1 )'et my palate could and would tolerate vodka and orange juice, taken in moderation of course. T he first night we were in Edinburgh, Art and I went out with four of the girls. Now, while the Scots were as open and friendly as the Australians, they did have one strange quirk. Art and I fo~d out that quirk in the first pub we journeyed into. Entering, the six of us were applauded. Was my fly down? No. Then I had it - of the 40 customers inside, there were only four other women present. Unexpectedly, Art and I had just brought in new meat for these sex-starved Scots. The funny thing was, that wasn't the end of it. Two minutes after we were in he pub , four Scots were buying drinks fo~ the girb. \\ c didn't complain; it \\.'as savm~ <b

of a hurricane - the first one to hit London in 300 years. I didn't find any of that out until later that morning, for as soon as I got home, I headed straight for my cot. Two of the women on the floor above me hadn't slept, and in the morning, they told me of the high winds from 3-6 a.m., and of this massive tree branch that kept floating above the street. What a crock, I thought, not believing a word. A few m inutes later, I left the flat in search of breakfast. I stopped as soon as I opened the door. Thirty feet away on my right was a 2-foot thick, 30-foot long tree branch resting on the sidewalk and in the street. A look to my left revealed a 20-foot branch lying on the top of a smashed Mercedes. My God, they were telling the truth! I went for a walk around the neighborhood. A few more cars were destroyed, power lines were down (unfortunately, not the ones to the clanging alarm bells), windows were broken and trees were uprooted. Businesses and banks were closed. The subway was closed. Later on, I grabbed an afternoon paper and found out that half of Hyde Park (London's largest) was decimated. Trees that were hundreds of years old were uprooted. Elsewhere, a London college's residence had collapsed and killed over 25 people. As for my building, it acquired a dozen new cracks in the walls and ceilings .... The Green Bathroom 1 December 1987 T here are a lot of things in London that I like to poke fun at - the weather, climate, transportation system (a laugh in itself), my roommates, the AIFS (American Institute for Foreign Studie~] Program in general, my trips, the slop shop cuisine and many others that space won't allow. However, there was one topic that I enjoyed making fun of more than any other topic around. That, of course, was my green bathroom. of my flatmates, as well as the rest of the Queensgate crowd, got tired of me harping on my bathroom right away, but it never became old for me. OK, what did I find ~o entertaining about my bathroom, you ask? (I'm glad you asked .... )Let me tell you a story. A long tim e ago, going on three months now, nine guys lived in one flat, sharing a communal kitchen, john ans;! shower/ bath. For months they made do - that is, a few of them tried their hands at being considerate at the amount of time they took in the shower. These guys knew they were lu cky to have the only functioning shower in the whole bu ilding. But their luck was short-lived. Soon, Mr. Electricity visited them, one by one, while they were lathering up. Sometimes, these guys would feel Mr. Electricity in the handles, other times in the shower cord. I was one of Mr .. Electricity's first victims and, strangely enough, I noticed a pattern develop from the next half -doze n complaints. It seemed that our elusive electron-friend only came out when the water was going. Ooohhh! Is that detective work or what? We coped as best we could, but when Dan Stein got zapped with about 40 volts twice the usual - something had to be done. Action was ni>eded. In a secret meeting, I was selected to go bitch to Toby [building supervisor]. Democracy was obviously not at work here - I was selected because I was the only one not present at the meeting. Oh well. The next day I was off to see Toby. 1 told him that the guy) and I wanted to b e ~ost

ON HUNGER STRIKE money. We stayed there for half an hour, the girls got two drinks each, and we then decided to mosey to another pub. Those ~ four guys followed us and bought the girls even more drinks. Their plan, I overheard, was to get them drunk and then get lucky. Little did they know I was still sober and well able to punch their kneecaps out. By the time we hit the third pub, those < Scots were wobbling slobs of intoxicated flesh. Those Scots had a high tolerance for beer, but when it came to the gin and tonic my friends were drinking, they were no match. This third place had a dance floor and since none of those Scots could carry a beat, Art and I took Lisa and Melanie out on the floor. This was when a couple of older Scottish women started picking on me. ME! That is the strange quirk about Scots - the m en can 't find the women to get them drunk because the ladies are waitmg on the dance floor for men who

aren't obviously trashed to come dance with them . Ay yi yi. \\'hat a trip that was. And to think, the fun in England didn't stop there.

Hurricane Clyde 16 October 1987 I've never thought of m짜se lf as a particularly lucky person, and, as the events of the day went, I'm sure I'm right. Let me explain. I should start by saying that the average temperature in London during the day is in the mid 50s with a strong w ind. So at 2 a.m., I expected it to be around freezing. v\lhat was I doing at 2 a.m.? I was coming home from my latest taste test of a local bar and was very surprised to find the tern, perature in the 70s. What was more unusual was that there was no wind . With my luck going as it was, it didn't really surprise me to find myself in the eye

put up in a hotel unless out shower was fixed . Action commenced immediately. Unfortunately, having lived all my life in America, I expected American performance. Silly me. You see, three weeks ago a worker came in and disconnected the water hose. A few days after that someone else came in and ripped the wiring out of the walls. It took the "electrician" days to rewire the lights and power. After that was finished, the first worker came back and took our bathroom window away. Where it went for the next two weeks is anyone's guess. Now, a November in England is similar to that in Colorado - it's damn cold! My room, as my bad luck would have it, was right next to the open-aired bathroom. No end to the good news, was there? For the next two weeks I froze my ass off whenever I was in my room, so I avoided it at all costs. Plus there was the problem of bathing. Where were any of us to go? Fortune rained on us in London, for there was a spare bathroom down in the basement. Ahh, we could shower there .... No, it just wasn't to be. There was a slight problem with the shower head and_only scalding water would come out. No problem , we would just take baths. I had to admit, baths were a bit of a pain at first, especially since that room had a broken window and it was as cold in there as in my room, but I got used to it. It was either that or start hitting my head against the wall. Then salvation came! The worker-guy didn't replace the window or reconnect the water attachemnts. Instead, he and another London joker came in and painted our bathroom a very, very soothing green. They also recaulked the tub and retiled the floor, but that was insignificant to the soothing green of our bathroom. It didn't matter if I came down with lung disease that led to an agonizing death from too much coughing, for I had a soothing bathroom to get things off my mind. Soothing green. You're not buying any of this, are you? Didn't think so. OK, this is how things ended up. After two weeks of freezing, I aga.in bitched to Toby (I'd been bitching for days, but now I was back to the 'find us a hotel until the place is fixed' scheme), and he, in turn, bitched on down the ladder until it got to the worker-guy. When I got home, the window was replaced, the shower worked and my room was starting to thaw. Hooray! That bathroom, now that it was finished , was the hest room in the entire building. i\nd the worker-guy, with a smug look on his face, informed us that he'd taken care of \fr. Electricity. I didn't have the heart to tell him that Mr Electricity was now hiding in the bathroom and kitchen sinks. At least shocking showers were a thing of the past. The moral? Don't ever be fooled by English technology. They can't make a straight sidewalk, nor can they make a building that doesn't need repairs every six months, nor can they construct a decent refrigeration system. What made me think they could fix Mr. - Electricity? About the only thing they did do to Mr. Electricity was d oub le his voltage. A flatmate found out about that just two days after it was declared safe. I just had to laugh. Things weren't going that great, but at least I still had my green bathroom. I used my shower until I left (worker-guy was busy stripping the one in the basement). Mr. Electricity only got me once more. A hot knife cutting a line down my chest. At least the soothing ~reen walls helped ease the pam. ... o

"

In rememberance of a friend tragically lost Patricia Kirgan Advertising Manager

,..

As I lifted the blue cover to my marketing diploma I experienced elation and sadness. A page in my life had turned. After countless nights of burning the midnight oil, studying textbook after textbook and notes after notes, I finally accomplished the goal I set for myself many years ago. I wanted to jump up and down and yell and scream, for I had beaten the times when the hard work got the best of me, when it made me doubt myself enough that I wanted to give up. With the help of a special friend, who encouraged me not to abandon my efforts, I went on to get my degfee. I wanted to run ro the marketing department and show my diploma to Pamela Mcintyre-Marcum. I wanted to say, "I did it, Pam, I got my degree I Thanks for all your support and encouragement!" Then I realized she wasn't there. She was gone . Someone else had moved into her office, and all I would feel if I went to the office was the emptiness inside me. I had experienced this feeling before when I passed her office.

Pam was truly one of those special people who encouraged me to complete my degree. She was hard on me, and at the time I didn't understand that her tough expectations were born out of caring. In fact, one of my friends reminded me of the many times I complained about how hard Pam pushed me and my classmates to go beyond our limits. I realize now that she only wanted the best for us. In her class I couldn't get away with anything. Although she was a marketing professor who was only supposed to be concerned with how well students grasped marketing concepts, she was also concerned with turning out well-rounded students. I remember the papers I had to turn in to her. When I got them back she had corrected my grammar, spelling and punctuation, and in the margins she had scrawled encouraging remarks that showed me my strengths as well as my weaknesses. She made me believe I could do well. On Jan. 30, 1987, after the semester I studied under her, Pam's teaching career ended. She was shot to death on campus. On the anniversary of her death, I still don't fully understand the tragic events of that

warm and sunny Friday afternoon last year. News reporters said that her ex-husband came to the campus and confronted her as she got into her Honda that was parked in lot I. Police called it a domestic dispute. For reasons known only to Pam's estranged ex-husband, he shot and killed her and then turned the gun, killing himself. I will never forget that day and how devastated I felt, nor will I forget how much she helped me. The days and weeks following Pam's death were filled with confusion and sometimes anger. It was so hard to pass by her classroom, let alone go in it for a class. Seeing students and faculty members in the hallways was very sad. I knew just by looking at them which ones knew what had happened. Suddenly a bond was present that hadn't been there before. Sometimes I would feel anger when I looked at others who acted as

though nothing at all had happened. I miss Pam and am grateful to have had her for a teacher and a friend. She encouraged me to go after what I wanted, to keep going forward. She had so much vitality and so much to share. Pam always went a step further in her teaching. She would relate her own experiences, such as living in Ireland, to our classes. Her lectures were fun and exciting. Pam always had an opinion and expressed them; she encouraged her students. to do the same. The sharing of opinions and experiences helped bridge the gap between student and teacher and school and work. Pam never made her students feel like she was anything but an equal. At times Pam was very demanding, as I soon found out when I took two of her classes in the same semester (she warned me not to). I'm glad I took both classes; I learned a great deal. Pam had an indescribable warmth about her and I always felt as comfortable walking into her office as I did walking into her home. I always knew if I needed someone to talk to for personal or business matters, she woulli be there for me. Last May, as I was standing in line for commencement with other marketing students, I remember my heart filling with sadness because Pam wasn't there to share in our triumph. One year has passed and the pain of Pam's sudden death and the issues surrounding her death are still present in my mind and the mind of others. Her memory will linger in my heart and soul, for she was truly someone who made a difference in my life. I regret not taking the time to tell her how I felt when she was alive. Perhaps she D does know now.

-------SPORTS------Grosz heats up court for MSC line, 4 of 7 from the field and hauled down 12 rebounds. After falling behind 50-44 with 7:45 remaining in the. game, the Roadrunners sparked the crowd of 696 by outscoring EMC 15-6 in the final stretch. Grosz scored eight of those points, while sophomore forward Shun Tillman canned three of four from the line. Tillman also accounted for a nice feed to Grosz in the lane, which brought the Roadrunners to within one at 54-53 with 3:54

Eric Ritter Reporter

One of the few places to find warmth these days may be in MSC center Rich Grosz's free throw shooting. He's HOT. Grosz scored 20 points, including four consecutive foul shots in the final two minutes, to propel Metro State to a 59-56 Great Northwest Conference win over Eastern Montana College Jan. 22. Grosz was a perfect 12 for 12 from the

remaining. MSC took the lead for good when junior forward ToddJavernick hit a jumper from the baselin e a minute la~er, giving Metro a 55-54 advantage. Earlier MSC was able to survive the hot hand of Yellowjacket forward Jerome Johnson who hit six straight field goals, one of them a clutch three-pointer at the halftime buzzer to knot the game at 28 apiece. Prior to Johnson's hot streak, Metro had built a comfortable 28-21 lead when guard Derrick Fuller drove untouched through the lane for an easy layup with 2:42 remaining in the half. "I think that play right before halftime was something that really spurred them (EMC) on ," Metro coach Bob Hull said. "He (Johnson) may be one of the best offensive players in the conference. Once ~ he gets going, he's hard to stop." .& Johnson's deadly outside shooting was .. sorely missed when he fouled out with 2:06 c: remaining in the game.

MSC swimmers hold heads above water Kristin J. Hager Reporter

The MSC swim team kept hopes afloat for a good showing at the Intermountain Swimming League championships next .) month, as the men secured a victory over CU and the women split two meets, beating Regis but losing to CU. Metro's men scored 114 points to CU's84 Jan . 22 in Boulder, with senior Rob Goodwin and junior Nick Fraser-Smith showing well, coach Steve Hadley said. "Rob swam three personal bests Friday," he said. Goodwin placed first in the 200yard breaststroke and second in both the individual medley and medley relay. Fraser-Smith took three firsts, in the 100yard freestyle, the individual medley and the freestyle medley. The women did not fare as well Jan. 22, with 80 points to CU 's 101, but junior Jana Zamboni set a new Metro State record in the 200-yard butterfly with a 2:35.7 time. Zamboni also took first in the freestyle relay and third in the 200-yard freestyle. ,. However, the women fared b etter in their Jan. 23 home meet against Regis College, winning 62-31. Zamboni again stood out with firsts in both the 200- and 500-yard freestyles. "She got two more Metro records against Regis, with a 2:08.4 and a 5 :56 .7 (respectively}," said Hadley. "That's three for the weekend. The rest of the swimmers did a good job, but Jana stands out." Hadley said that Regis' team was lacking in swimmers, with only four showing on Saturday, but in five races, Metro's

swimmers swam exhibition, scoring no points. He said both meets went almost exactly as he had predicted. Speaking of the CU meet, Hadley said he knew the men would fare better. "Sometimes you come up against better athletes. Our men are definitely better than theirs, but their women have beat us twice,·· he said. Hadley said, however, that all swimmers should be picking up within the next two weeks, and that a slow showing in the middle of the season is normal because of heavy training. "This is a heavy, heavy training period, and the swimmers are swimming tired," he said. "At the center point of the season, training is hard, and it tapers down at the end so that by championships, their bodies are fresher but stronger. " They ' ll be abl e to accept more punishment. Then we should get our best times , as they'll be at the peak of the season,'' Hadley said. Hadley said he feels good about the upcoming championships Feb. 16-20. The men's team currently has a record of six wins, eight losses and one tie. The women have 10 wins, eight losses and one tie. "With both the men and women, I see progress ·_ good technique, aggression. I'm really optimistic for the final championship showings," said Hadley, who is in his first year of coaching at Metro. He has coached swimming for 28 years on the high school level. The women's team will again b e put to the test Jan. 30 in a triangular meet at UNC

against UNC and DU. Both men and women will compete Feb. 11 against Colorado College in Colorado Springs. The next home meet will bring DU to Metro Feb. 12. Hadley said that although the season is

not .yet at a close, he has already begun active recruiting for next year's team. ''I'll have some returning swimmers, but need some more," he said. Hadley urged any interested students to contact him. D

Sometimes, hope comes from defeat. And for MSC's women's basketball team, in the throes of a 10-game losing streak, there is still hope. The streak was punctuated by two losses last week: a 90-55 shellacking at the hands of Southern Utah State College Jan. 23and an equally dispiriting 86-64 defeat from the Air Force Academy Jan. 26. But hope comes to the team in the persons of Carrie Hershfeldt and Sharon Coleman. In the Southern Utah game, Hershfeldt scored 21 points and had 14 rebounds. For the AFA game, she scored 20 points and had 13 rebounds. "That's a good game. A really good one," said coach Cindy Guthals. Coleman, after missing two games and having but one day of practice, scored l6 points and had four rebounds against Air Force.

The team has had trouble suiting players this season. Only nine women played against AF A, and many were forced to be on the court for long stretches. Hershfeldt played 38 of the 40 minutes and Stacey Brandvold, 36. The Roadrunners came out strong and played with AFA for the first 10 minutes, but they soon tired, Guthals said. " Well, considering the injuries and absenteeism, we've had the best team as we can," she said. With 10 games remaining, Guthals is still optimistic for the 2-12 Roadrunners. "We can get back together for the last 10 games, but there is a lot of work to be done," Guthals said. "Some of them are very winnable games, and we're working on the right attitude." The Roadrunners take on the University of Northern Colorado at MSC's homecoming Jan. 29 at 5:30 p.m. in the Auraria gym. o
