Proposal could mean 8% tuition hike Jana Cohlmla Reporter

i

MSC students may have to dig deep into their pockets to pay a tuition increase of up to 8 percent next year if a Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE) proposal is adopted "The (CCHE) is considering three options for setting tuition increase schedules, one of which would tie increases to the general fund appropriations," said Geralyn Reinardy, assistant to the CCHE executive director. The general fund, allocated each year by the Colorado Legislature, is the amount the state pays to help fund higher education. The CCHE last week proposed a sliding scale, which means the higher the increase in the general fund, the lower the increase in tuition, and vice versa, Reinardy said. The CCHE has asked for a $38.6 million increase in the general fund for the acadmeic year 1988-89. If that request is granted, under this proposal colleges would be allowed to raise tuition a maximum of 3.8 percent Likewise, ifthe legislature funds less than the $38 6 million, colleges could increase tuition up to 8 percent, Reinardy said Ac.cording to Rep. Richard Bond, DWeld, a member of the Joint Budget Committee (JBC), the chances of the Legislature funding the total $38.6 million increase are "very little." ,, _ "At the prtsent time we have, in additional money, about $90 million, but we have (n~ expenditures) of about $125

million," he said. "At first glance, we (JBC) thought maybe we could go with a $25 milion increase, (and) now I would say $25 million is the maximum." He added that he is concerned, along with . '' other JDC members, that tuition increases would scare off potential students. "Anything that raises tuition scares me," Bond said. "We are rapidly pricing middleclass America right out of education, and I ftDl opposed to any increase over 5 percent." The Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges (Metro's governing board) also

have concerns about the proposal, said Jan Cassin, trustee vice president of administration and finance. "First of all, if (higher education) gets the $38.6 million, why raise tuition at all? And vice versa, can the college live with an 8percent increase?" Cassin asked. "We (Trustees) do not as yet have a consensus on the policy, in terms of what we would agree with," but the board will follow it and develop a position. According to Reinardy, the CCHE sees the proposal as "a way to strike a balance

between state support and student support" in paying the cost of higher education. Reinardy added that the current policy to increase tuition is a weak one, in which individual institutions formulate their own requests. Metro is asking for a 5-percent increase from the students, and a 16-percent increase from the general fund, said Tim Greene, interim vice president for business and finance at Metro. IfMetro does not receive the increase, the college will be forced to cut back on "priority needs," such as badly-needed computer equipment and faculty raises, he said. "Metro is committed to go with a 5percent increase request from students" and a 16-percent request from the general fund, Greeen said. "If we were not to get that 16 percent, we would have to go higher" in the tuition increase. "Prior to 1985, the governing boards could raise tuition any amount, then House Bill 1187 (passed in 1985-86) gave authority to the CCHE to contain those increases," Greene said. "If the governing boards agree to the proposal, the CCHE would have even more authority over tuition increases." He added that the CCHE seems to be making :m effort to control tuition increases, "and that is admirable." The CCHE will vote on the proposal March 3, and the Colorado Legislature will allocate the general fund prior to the closing of its 1988 session, May 24. o

Wirth says wealth mies world Jim Manuel Editor

..

U.S. Sen. Tim Wirth said Feb. 9 the United States must quit thinking of itseH as the world's big brother and instead should think of itself as a partner with other emerging economic powers. "This is no longer a bi-polar world," Wirth said. "Europe, India, Japan and now Brazil are all centers of economic power." The .first-term senator, speaking to about 100 people at the Auraria Student Center as part of Auraria's "By Word of Mouth" lecture series, delivered a short speech on U.S.-Soviet relations and economic problems in the world. Wirth said the world no longer revolves around the economic and military power of

the Soviet Union and the United States, and that the United States must learn to adapt to a changing world economy. "We spend 7 percent ofour gross national product on defense, protecting much of the free world," he said. "The Japanese think this is great. They put their money in education, technology and research, then export goods to the U.S." Wirth hailed the recent arms treaty signed by the United States and the Soviets as the first step in reducing emphasis on military strength, and placing it on economic development ''The Soviets know that no one wants to adopt their ideology anymore," he said. ''Their economy is in deep trouble; they can't compete with the U.S., Japan or Europe."

Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev realizes that the Soviet Union must redirect its resources, Wirth said. They can no longer spend money on tanks and other weapons when they lag so far behind in computers and other technology. What Gorbachev has done is significant because of the political alliance he has put together to begin the economic reform, ~ Wirth said. ~ "The Soviet bureaucracy is immense," he c said. "There is a large civil service and 0 military that is very resistant to change. It's a testament to Gorbachev's political skills that he has been able to accomplish as much as he has." Wirth cited greater freedoms in the areas of theater and literature and the loss of

• New manager begins reorganization

Profit projected after book center shuffle -

Jana Cohlmia Reporter

High operating costs and too many employees have kept the Auraria Book Center (ABC) from making a profit for several years, but ABC director Gretchen Minney hopes her reorganization plan will turn that around. ''There was a time when personnel expenses became too large to support a store of this size," Minney said. "But the store has the capability of making a profit, and this year we might" Minney came to ABC last June after leaving her job as book store director for Hobart and William Smith colleges. Since then, she has been reorganizing the book store to "bring about a more efficient structure" to its operations ''without raising prices," she said. To accomplish this, she has pared down the ABC staff and made other changes, such as the new refund policy, which requires books to be returned, unused and unmarked, within the first three weeks of the semester. "We were virtually running a library where students could return books anytime as long as they had a receipt," she said. She added that some students were keeping books for a long time, then returning them near the end of the semester. "We were paying all those expenses (shipping, unpacking, selling, etc.) and

Auml1 Book Center hopu ta nit $150,IDI In 1988. receiving no payment," she said. · Despite what many students think, Minney said, the book store has a relatively low mark-up and makes little, if any, profit, due to both ABC's operating expenses and the high cost of purchasing books from publishers. Minney attributes these high costs to such things as editing, proofreading (because these services often require experts with knowledge of a specific field) and "faculty sampling" of textbooks. Faculty sampling allows teachers to receive books, free of charge, that are being used in the classroom. "Somebody has to pay for this service because it is reflected in the retail price," and

students will most likely pay that price, she said. While sales for fiscal year 1986-87 totaled $7 ,430,000, the cost to purchase book store goods and to operate the store totaled $7,452,726, creating a net loss of$22,726. This year ABC hopes to change that trend. "We have a goal of generating approximately $200,000 in profits," said Jim Schoemer, deputy director of the Auraria Higher Education Center (AHEC). ''This year we should be at about $150,000." Schoemer added that any profits made go toward the Student Facilities Bond Fund Account, which pays the debt owed for campus facilities, such as the book store and

the Student Center. Minney also said that the used-book market creates a higher profit for ABC, but added that it benefits both the book store and the students. "In some cases we (ABC) make more money in used books, but the demand for used books on this campus is very great," she said. While the mark-up for new textbooks is about 25 percent, used books are marked up an additional 50 percent, Minney said. For example, a new book that costs ABC $15 will be raised to $20 (a 25 percent margin). During the book buy-back, ABC may spend about $10 for that same book, raising it to $15 (a 50 percent margin), thereby increasing the profit margin 25 percent. Minney added that while the used-book market benefits both the book store and students, it decreases the publisher's profits. In fact, she said, publishers provide incentives, such as instructional materials, to faculty and to the book store for not purchasing and reselling used books. "We are not a party to that and we aggressively pursue the used-book market to provide the greatest number of used books for Metro courses," Minney said. Mary Martinez, textbook department manager, added, "I tell them (publishers) 'no', but they just don't understand; they won't get their heads out of the ground." D

Gamers may have to Student Affairs Board find a new play.room proposes information post Chad Morris Reporter

Problem? What problem? The problem, according to the Student Center Advisory Board (SCAB), is that they have received too many complaints of noise and general rowdiness about the Auraria Gamers Club to be ignored, so they've decided to take action. Action in the form of a letter, to be written by SCAB member Theresa Kascsak, asking the club to utilize areas such as the Game Room or conference rooms in the Student Center for their activities instead of the club office in Room 351-E of the Student Center Annex. SCAB is a tri-institutional committee that reviews policy and procedure of the Student Center. SCAB Chairman Dan Becker said Feb. 9 that the gamers have been told in the past not to use the room for this purpose, but have continued to do so. While no written complaints have been filed against the club, all four members of SCAB said they had received verbal complaints from other clubs sharing the offices around the gamers. Jeff Price, president of Alpha Eta Rho, which has its office next to the gamers, said the main problem has been the smoking in the halls. The area is supposed to be nosmoking, but he said the gamers don't pay much attention to it. He also complained about the noise.

"We try to get work done here ... it's hard in a 'Romper Room' atmosphere." The gamers, however, said they are not aware of any problem. Eric Shanholtzer, executive officer of the gaming club, said he knew of"no complaints whatsoever." Neither did Jake Arellano, the club's faculty advisor. Club member Matthew Gomez said that when they are loud, other clubs' members let them know and visa versa. As for using other rooms, Shanholtzer said that using conference rooms is a problem because they cannot reserve them over a long period of time. If they could, they would be able to meet in one place regularly. The Game Room doesn't really meet their needs either, they said. They need space, lots of space, and a lot of time. Some games take hours to play and have extensive boards that require a large area, Gomez said. Thea Hutchinson, manager of the Game Room, agreed with the gamers. She said the room doesn't have enough space or the quiet needed to play the club's often-complex games. The game between SCAB and the Gamer's Oub has probably only just begun. Other actions taken by SCAB included approving space for the Vietnamese Club in Room 255-D in the Student Center and okaying the policies and procedures for the Student Center Ticket Booth. Both actions will be sent to the SFPC for final approval. o

The Student Affairs Boord (SAB) got its first preview of a proposed student information center during its Feb. 8 meeting. The center was introduced for the first time this school year by SAB chair David Conde. The SAB is a board of MSC students and faculty that allocates student fees to feefunded programs. The information center would be open to anyone with questions concerning the functions or services of MSC and the Auraria Higher Education Center. The proposed center would be placed on the first floor of the Central Classroom, where it would be accessible to a large number of students. "It's a first ... kind of a rough draft of an idea to SAB," said Dan Becker, SAB member and Financial Affairs Committee chair. Although an official proposal has not been drafted, the program could go into effect by July I. An official proposal has to be submitted to the SAB by March 31 to be eligible for funding for the 1988-89 school vear. • According to Conde, the program would require that the person (or persons) who would run the program have a lot of knowledge of and connections on the Auraria campus.

Also discussed at the meeting were revisions of the 1987-88 student fee-funded budget and the situation of MSC's Legal Assistance Program. Conde said the total student fee income for 1987-88 will exceed $1 million. So far, $814,893 has been allocated to 17 different fee-funded programs. The additional funds, if not allocated, will go into student fees accounts to build up a healthy reserve. "We can hold off raising student fees (if the reserve is built up)," Becker said. The Associated Students of Metropolitan State College will submit a supplemental funding request to the board Feb. 22. Becker said the request will include funds for the Friends of the Irish Debate series (about $6,000), the mock trial competition hosted by Drake University (about $3,000--$4,000), an IBM computer capable of desk-top publishing for ASMSC and other fee-funded programs (under $10,000), and an unknown amount for the faculty evaluation surveys. Becker said the total spent on fee-funded programs for '87-88 probably won't exceed $900,000. As for as legal services, the first meeting of the Student Legal Assistance Board is Feb. 12. The board, currently set up to work with University of Colorado at Denver (UCO), will have two student members from both

Student big loser after winning contest Robert Ritter Associate Editor

Years ago, the Rolling Stones advised us, "You can't always get what you want." Well, UCD student Teresa Yanni just wants to get what she won. But it looks as though she won't even get that. You see, Yanni thought she would get a free semester's tuition after winning a drawing last semester. But an AWOL benefactor means she'll probably pay the money herself. Yanni's seemingly good fortune started last October when she found out she had won a semester's tuition from Jim Murray, the owner of Murray's Shoes in the Tivoli. Yanni, a senior majoring in business, said she had filled out a ticket for the drawing, but was unaware she had won until later. "I was studying in the Student Center with some friends for midterms. I didn't hear

them call my name, but I was excited for the student." She said someone from Murray's called her later by phone to tell her she was the winner. And that's when her troubles began. "I was truly expecting a check for the tuition. (But) I knew from the beginning it was gonna be hard to get anything from the guy (Murray). He wanted all kinds of receipts. And he didn't realize how the school system works," she said. "He seemed to have a bad attitude about students," she said. "But I'm not a typical 18-year-old student. Maybe he thinks daddy is footing the bill." Yanni said she left Denver during Christmas break for two weeks and figured a check would be waiting on her return. She said she told Murray she would call him when she got back. They had to work

out some details since she belongs to the Air National Guard, which pays for 75 percent of her tuition. Murray said he would pay for the other 25 percent, including books and fees. But when she got back to Denver there was a surprise for her. "He was gone," she said. Yanni said she's searched everywhere for Murray, but has bad no luck. The store in the Tivoli is empty and Tivoli management has no leads on Murray's whereabouts. And another clue points to a midnight escape. "He had another store in Littleton and that number is disconnected," she said. Yanni said attempts to locate him led nowhere. "Channel 4 won't pursue it because I'm not out (didn't lose) anything. I guess I can call the Better Business Bureau." She said she can afford school, but felt the

Tuition may rise again Jana Cohlmia Reporter

Higher education doesn't come cheap especially in the last seven years at MSC, where tuition has increased 83 percent and next year students can expect another 5-percent increase. Metro has asked its governing body, the Board of Trustees, for a 5-percent tuition increase. This is in addition to the 16-percent increase it has requested in state support money from the Colorado Legislature.

prize from Murray's would give her some extra for once. "I have the money to pay for tuition, but I thought I was going to get a little extra." Still, Yanni said she's learned a lesson or two. "Well, if I win something, I'm not going to jump for joy so fast. And I'll be more aware of what kind of people are out there. I've learned not to take everything at face value. "Especially being in the field of business, it's hard for me to understand. To just slip away in the night," she said. "It's the first time I've ever won something and I didn't even get it." Oh well, you can't always get what you want; or is it you can't always get what you win? 0

Included in the 1988-89 budget is funding for "high priority needs" such as new faculty positions, $1 million for computer supplies, faculty salary raises, and hikes in departmental supply budgets. If Metro receives the funds it has asked for, more teachers would be hired to accommodate increasing enrollments and salaries would be raised, said Tim Greene, interim vice president for business and finance at Metro. Full-time faculty would gain 9.5 percent while part-timers, salaries would be hiked 26.3 percent. The average annual full-time salary at Metro is $31,660, 18 percent below that of similar institutions, Greene said. Greene also said MSC part-time teachers receive $1,425 per three-credit hour class, far below that of comparable institutions, such as UCO, where part-time instructors are paid between $1,800 and $2,000 for a three-credit class. Despite recent tuition increases, Metro is still lacking in both funds and equipment, Greene said. He attributes part of the problem to "minimal state support increases prior to 1985, which made tuition increases necessary to

"Our philosophy is that a good portion of the students are not going to be able to meet the requirements of employers," said Ron Lujan, Auraria Career Services Employment >- ooordinator. Lujan said that because employers look at volume degree programs, such as engineering and accounting, students must learn how to market themselves. Career Services likes to prepare students -. for employment interviews through recruitment orientations that teach students and non-students to look at themselves, the organiution they are applying to and the position they are seeking. . _ This semester, Career Services will offer more than 40 job recruitment interviews '> with busin~ which range from Frito-Lay to the University of San Diego Graduate School Students who have completed the recruitment orientation can sign up for personal interviews with companies that fit ,... what they want to do, Lujan said · Employers have identified specific guidelines as to the year of graduation and the degree majors they are looking for. So, Lujan said, by utilizing the service provided by the career office, such as the career hbrary with more than 1,600 books and the off,_ campus student employment office, students can be matched up with potential employers.

Through the computerized information system, located in the main level of the library, students, businesses, government employees and citizens of Colorado have remarkable ease of acces.5 to information from many of the Front Range's college and public libraries, she said. The system is also available by dial-up from the home or office from anyone with a PC and a modem. The system can also be utilized by people with terminals connected to several of the academic computer systems in the state. The most recent additions to the system are the Metro Denver Facts and Current World Data programs, she said. Metro Denver Facts consists of a summary of metro Denver's growth and assets as a business location in various cities. Topics include economy, work force, climate, educational and living environment, ethnic distribution, family income level, transportation, employers and more. Facts consist of information on contemporary national trends in news coverage and research. Current World Data is similar to an almanac, providing information for all 50 states and foreign countries.

Holden said he resigned because of time conflicts and because he felt it was better to appoint all eight nominees. The new members are Kim Flemming, Laural Halderman, Karla Kelly, Daniel Girouard, Kathryn Lineberger, Ron Lopez,

Nathan Vanderhoofven and Andrew Patterson. · "I hope to get more student participation in the senate and on campus," Patterson said. About his first senate meeting, he said, ."It was kind of chaotic. I felt there was more resigning than participation going on." Others resigning at the meeting were Russell Larson and Ed Heinrich-Sanchez. The i eight positions filled had been vacated in the last two meetings. The six appointments of senators were Paul Kiehn, treasurer; Dan Holden, SACAB representative; Kelly Martin and Gary Talsma, parking committee; Laura , Gohlender, Student Legal Advisory Board; and Mason Golden to the Judicial Board

Class mixes legal facts with social realism Judith Henrickson Reporter Combine the teaching talents of a sociologist who describes her style as "somewhat extemporaneous," and a very direct, tenacious attorney, and you get a class that students say is challenging and a lot of fun. Jeanne Elliott, an attorney and long-time women's rights activist, and Dr. Jan Mickish, a part-time sociology instructor, are team-teaching WMS 331, Women and The Law, for the second time. Both women say they want the class to leave with more insight of the social-political-legal climate for women and options for the future. "Women don't get enough information about what women are involved with; they need to know what their rights are and find out how to expand them. In the last two weeks, nine women were murdered in domestic violence cases, but we don't hear about it because what's important is what John Elway had for breakfast,'' Elliott says. Described by colleagues as tough and determined, Elliott has been an outspoken advocate of women's rights and until two years ago devoted much of her law practice to protecting the rights of battered women. In 1986, she ironically became the victim of the violence she fought against after she was left paralyzed by a gunshot wound inflicted by her client's husband during a trial in an Aurora courtroom. Although Elliott says she hasn't ruled out returning to her law practice, she finds teaching a challenge and enjoys sharing the class with Jan Mickish.

"It's a good mix. I have a good background in litigation, and her specialty is the historical and social aspect. We really enjoy teaching together and learn a lot from one another," she says. Mickish, whose background is in law and social control, says that violence against women in society is one of the many manifestations of women's inequaltiy, but she doesn't feel there is any quick fix.

"My desired equality will come from every aspect of the social system; law is only one small part. What will make men and women equal is changing the way people think about women and equality,'' she says, adding that they plan to explore real-life experience and learn from one another in the class. "Most of us can't afford very much justice from the legal system; and because of the

limitations of the system, it may not be a legal remedy that women seek," she says. Mickish has worked for several correctional facilities and helped implement Arapahoe County's new domestic violence program, one that eliminates the need for victims to press charges against the abuser. She currently serves as a consultant for Gateway Battered Women's Shelter. She says it's important for students to become aware of what the system is like for all women. The class discussion includes such topics as sexual politics, constitutional rights, females as offenders, and women's health and employment issues. The students will get first-hand experience by observing court cases, interviewing public officials and touring many facilities, including a women's jail and a battered women's shelter. Elliott says the basics - speech, liberty and equal rights - are important, but the class will also look at what women need before they can have a decent life. "The 'isms' (sexism, racism) in our society cause women to become physically and politically isolated. With the feminiz.ation of poverty, we see a systematic lowering of rights for lower-class women and the disintegration of political clout for all women. There isn't an iota of difference between Nancy Reagan and the prostitutes on East Colfax, except the wedding ring she wears,'' Elliot says. dents an opportunity to explore not only the administrative system, but also the subtle nuances of women's everyday lives and to learn valuable lessons from one another. o

Teacher tells how to cure computer-phobia Kristin Hager Reporter

Computer-phobia. It's a relatively new acute fear affecting many members of our society, including college professors. In 1982, calculators and pages of typewritten reports were replaced as the most advanced forms of business communication by the computer, a wonderbox that many adapted to immediately. However, a number of people refuse to deal with the so-called "appliances from hell" because of the technical training involved. But according to MSC reading professor Dr. David Caverly, not only can computers in the classroom familiarize students with the many functions computers have in our society, but they can also supplement such learning stimuli as lectures and textbook reading. "It has been my experience that the more exposure and the more types of exposure students have to given concepts, the more likely they are to understand and retain these concepts," Caverly said. Caverly has spent the last year developing this theory through funding from administration, under the heading of professional development. His three-year plan is to test the effectiveness of computer-supplemented material in the classroom, to develop software for various classes to use, to design a procedure for other professors to come up with their own software and to develop a feasible way to market such techniques and

software to other higher education institutions in an attempt to bring additional funding to the schools. "I'm excited about this project," Caverly said, leaning over the Apple Ile in his software- and manual-ridden office. "I envision a major shift over the next two years that allows more assignments to be done on computer. I've had good feedback from other faculty." Apparently, MSC's administration supports the project. Caverly said a shipment of 25 to 30 computers, funded by administration, is scheduled to arrive on campus in

~~~~

Stage one of Caverly's plan is in effect now. Last semester, he instructed a remedial reading course supplemented by computers, and students seemed to learn better, he said. "But I've got to be certain. This semester, I'm teaching one group of students with the computer supplement and one in the traditional method," he said. "We'll know the results at the end of the semester." Caverly's interest in formulating software stems from the largely ineffective educational software that is already in the market. "There are two to three hundred programs on reading that are available now, and maybe four or five that I would use in the classroom," he said. "There are several institutions that would be interested in buying the software we've already produced, but we just don't have a procedure developed for that yet."

Caverly 1tnm1 Importance o1 computer learning. Caverly stressed his interest in computer instruction does not mean he thinks teachers are doing a poor job. "Quite the contrary. I think MSC has one of the finer institutions in the state as far as teaching goes, and our graduates are proving that," he said. Caverly added that teaching can only be done effectively on the supplemental level. Students "drop like flies" from a class taught soley by computer. But a supplement allows students to learn how to think critically as well as to learn the concepts. "In today's high-tech society, we double

the amount of information available every eight months. So graduates need to learn how to apply concepts and to filter through the barrage of knowledge around them. Computers help strengthen these abilities. "Our teachers here are good instructors who have a lot of experience in their fields. Computer-supplemented instruction will complement this," Caverly said. "MSC is an exciting place right now. It's at the forefront in terms of technology, using technological developments to complement our instruction. It's one of the few schools, I think, that's doing something about it" o ~;::::;:;:;:;::::::~

A fine surface can make a remarkable difference in your artwork. Through Feb. 20, our loose sheet fine art papers are worth rubbing more than usual because they're on sale for 15% off. That includes the famous DAS paper sample packets. So now that you've rubbed this newspaper print, come 1n and rub the real thing.

----OP-ED---GET INVOLVED! ,

On Feb. 9, U.S. Sen. Tim Wirth spoke during the lunch hour in front of a sparse crowd at the Auraria Student Center. Wirth touched on subjects from the trouble of health care in the United States to possibly sending the National Western Stock Show and Rodeo to the Soviet Union to take advantage of the current era of cultural openness. But it was slightly disturbing to see only 100 people attend the talk. Especially on a campus that's so big. C'mon, what kind of students are we? Last year when a Porsche ran under another car on Larimer Street between the Tivoli and the Student Center at least 100 people either stepped outside the Student Center or watched the "action" from the pool room. Why is it that Wirth , maybe the most eloquently intelligent speaker.on campus in a long time, can

only draw the same number of people as a car wreck? The time of year we are now in the middle of promises to be exciting. There's a presidential campaign just revving up. We are all asked to cast a vote that will affect us for at least the next four years. At the same time (and a little closer to home), we will vote in the next two months for student body president, vice president and student senators. This vote wi ll affect the large majority of us for at least one year and maybe three. So make this campus more than just a place to come for three classes a day. Be aware of what's happening to your school and on your campus. GET INVOLVED.

Dear Editor: As members of Metropolitan State College's first group to participate in the American Institute for Foreign Study, we wish to respond to the article by Mr. Steve Brown in the January 29, 1988 Metropolitan entitled "A Semester in Marry Olde England." After reading the article Mr. Brown wrote it seems he visited a totally different country than we visited in the Autumn of 1987. We went to England with a different attitude than Mr. Brown did. The England we visited was a place where one could study a different culture with a very rich heritage of art, theatre, music, museums, and we found it by meeting the English, in joining various organizations and working at these organizations. The word choice used in the article is another

problem. In almost every paragraph in the story there is a negative word to describe his English experience or some part of the culture of England. When an individual is visiting anywhere one is supposed to try to go in with an open mind, not a closed mind. This reminds us, unfortunately, of the idea of The Ugly American. Maybe in such future trips a course in cultural training will be provided so people know what to expect in a foreign country. In concluding we hope that Mr. Brown did have a nice time in England and if he did not, too bad because we did. Barbara Anderson and James Michael Carr MSC .students

CONSTRUCTION SITES-Sure, why not?

Rick Smolan became a photojournalist because be was "painfully shy" and as a kid be spent a lot of time fighting with his dad Smolan, co-producer of the popular photo joumalsA Day in the Life ofAmericaandA Day in the Life of the Soviet Union, visited the Auraria campus Feb. 3 to share his experiences about making the books. The books involved photographers from all over the world capturing in one day the ordinary - or extraordinary - life of a country or state . "The camera was an excuse for me to go up and talk to people," Smolan said, referring to his shyness. And "when I was a kid I did a lot of fighting with my dad He said I would have to spend 90 percent of my life doing something I didn't want to do." Smolan disagreed with his dad and went on to do what be loves best- photography. He also conceived the idea for and coproduced similar books depicting a day in the life of Australia, Hawaii, Spain, Canada and Japan. Smolan brought slides and anecdotes to the Student Center for an audience of 135 people. Most of the slides were photographs not seen in either book. "You saw stuff no one's ever seen before," he said. "We took 250,000 photographs in America, for instance, and only used 250 in the book." Smolan spoke fondly of the places he's photographed. "Australia, Japan and the Soviet Union are my favorites, with Spain right up there," he said. He said the book about Spain ha.5 been on the top-ten list for three months there. His work ha.5 also provided a chance to meet several heads of state. "I got to go up in the helicopter with the

King (of Spain) - we really hit it off. His aides try to keep him from doing thin~ 'cause he's like a SO-year-old kid." The people of the Soviet Union were not as light-hearted at first. ' "We negotiated with the Soviet Union for three years. They were always very polite and they always kept our pictures, but nothing ever happened." Finally, they agreed to let the book be published, but they wanted 75 Soviet photographers and 25 Western photo: grapbers. Smolan said that was the opposite of bow the books bad been done in the past - with 25 photographers from the subject country and 75 from the outside. But the Soviets got their way. Smolan said that in each country, the photographers spent time with people trying to get to know them before they took pictures. "We wanted the photographers to see the countries in spontaneous ways - with a fresh look. But sometimes there are thing5 that only a native can understand "The Russians are very warm people. They seem very stoic at first, but when you sit down with them they have a great sense of humor." Eric Bakke, one of A Day in the Life of America photographers, also appeared with Smolan. "The energy that's put into one of these books could probably run a small city," Bakke said. "It's one of the ultimate thin~ you can do as a photographer." Smolan told the audience he was open to new ideas for a project. "I haven't the faintest idea what we're . going to do next," he said "Maybe Vietnam. Brazil would be intereSting. Maybe Kenya." And Smolan said his father "still wants to know what I'm going to do when I grow up." o

privileges of some high-level Soviet officials as proof of the changes in policy. The changes in Soviet policy could help the United States in several ways, be said. Right now the United States spends about $50 billion of its $300 billion defense budget on nuclear weapons, with the remainder going to conventional arms. The recent treaty signed by the two · superpowers will only reduce nuclear weapons by about 43, he said. But the treaty is historic because it is the first time the two countries have actually reduced existing

weapons - not just agreed to put a limit on the number of weapons produced. The savings the United States may eventuallv realize from lower defense spending ~uld be used for education, research and technological advancement, helping the United States strengthen its economic position in the world " Wirth said the United States and the Soviets should take advantage of their warming relations and encourage more cultural exchanges, including sending a rodeo to the Soviet Union in exchange for a troop of Cossacks. .fl

WEEKLY Then came the day his roommate announced he had made reservations at the Bay Wolf for his girl of three weeks. And then came Feb. 14. I arrived at his place for a homemade candlelight dinner around seven to see a beautiful vase of fresh wildflowers, roses and balloons in between two place settings. How beautiful, I thought, and how wrong I was for ever doubting that he would come through on this romantic day. Just then, the balloon inside my head burst, as his decked-out roommate dashed from his bedroom, into the dining room and out the front door - with the bouquet of flowers! The rest of the night went downhill from there. He got a second chance, but decided to pop a few Valiums before escorting me to an elegant French restaurant in Longmont. He didn't get a third. So my record is 2 and 5. I can now laugh at those once-hurtful times and be thankful for my dear old Dad. If I could only decide which to rally for: Valentine's cards displayed at Thanksgiving or less societal emphasis put on Feb. 14. Maybe I won't have to do either. The love of my life will probably read this before Sunday ... or maybe he avoided the rush and bought his card before New Year's. o

Cupid's arrow takes many twisting turns on shot to the heart . Jiii Ranaudo Reporter

H, on Dec. 26, you realized that you forgot to send someone a Christmas card, you'd be out of luck. ..,, You see, little elves sneak into closed stores on Dec. 25, snatch up every last Christmas card, and snicker as they refill the rack with redder, lacier, mushier cards than they had removed. With guys having this seven-week jump start, a girl would never think of being 'Ill.. forgotten on Feb. 14. However, after living through five terrible Valentine's days, one worse than the next, I am convinced that either men need more time, or I need a new man. · This trend started in 1981, when my first real boyfriend did nothing to acknowledge the day but say thanks for his box of candy, his two cards (I couldn't decide) and a personal in the Boulder Daily Camera. I should have realized then that men and holidays don't mix, but my dad always

seemed to come through for Mom, so I gave Patrick another chance. The following year, he decided to make amends and take me on a romantic ski trip. Only one catch - his friend was going, so I should invite one too. No problem, I thought, we'd still get to ski in twos ... And I thought right - Phylann and I would ski on one- run, Dave and Patrick on another. What fun, especially since neither Phylann nor I had ever skied before. While we learned to ski, she and I laughed off our terrible Valentine's days. She had gotten a dozen roses from a guy she swore she'd never date and has since married, and I had gotten a drive up to Winter Park with my boyfriend of a year and a half. After being 0 and 2, I took a year off from guys. Valentine's Day still came, though, and that year I got a big box of candy and a stuffed animal from my first Valentine and the only man in my life - Daddy. Since I found out that I didn't need a boyfriend to get candy on Valentine's Day, I

remained boyfriendless for the next one or at least I thought I had, until FfD arrived on my doorstep with a dozen roses for me. Phylann Chapter II - but I didn't get married. The next year, Daddy was my Valentine again, and I was happy. But during the summer, a guy stole my heart, and I could tell my dad would only have one Valentine from then on - my mom. I just knew this guy would be the one to wine and dine me on that Valentine's Day and many more. But as the big day approached, I got more and more unsure. I thought the day he told me that we wouldn't be going out for Valentine's dinner was bad

Foreign students face new challenges Cherlf Wehbe Reporter For foreign students, adaptation to a country's different cultures can weigh heavily on educational progress. For Auraria students, that's where the Office of International Programs enters the picture. From housing difficulties to deportation, the Office of International Programs deals with a multitude of problems that face more than 500 international students on the Auraria campus. There is much more to the international student than the Oriental who dons his native costume and performs a traditional dance at the international dinner. There is a student who desperately wants to fit into a way of life so different from the one he has been used to most of his life. "I have seen a number of students sick with shock when they first came to the United States," says Skip Crownhart, manager of the Office of International Programs. The reason for the shock, Crownhart explains, is not knowing the correct way to behave in certain situations. For example, many students from certain cultures think it is permissible to negotiate grades with professors. "I have to explain to them that this is not tolerated here and that if they are not satisfied with something in the class, then I explain to them that there is a process where they can seek help through the right channel." Many students feel misplaced when they leave their customs behind, and it takes a

"I have seen anumber of students sick with shock when they first come to the United States." - Skip Crownhart Manager of Office of International Programs long time to adjust, though most of them.are usually here for only a four-year period. There are more serious problems for foreign students than just homesickness. Since immigration forbids them from working while they are in this country, they can run into financial difficulties. "Many times I have solicited food and a place to stay for students, and some I have advised to file bankruptcy. Other times I refer them to professionals. There are a number of people that can help where I can't ... like lawyers, doctors and clergy," Crownhart says. In some cases, the office will contact the student's parents in their home country, but not without the student's permission. Some students are simply irresponsible and come to this country from supressed cultures, so they get caught in bad habits and consequently suffer bad grades. There are students who come from countries where alcohol is forbidden and believe it's all right to make up for a restricted life back home. They abuse drugs and sometimes become alcoholics. "They fail to understand that with freedom comes responsibility. When students cannot help themselves we assist, and I have convinced one student to go to Alcoholics Anonymous," Crownhart explains. The office has seen students abusing

marijuana and cocaine, and many times these students stop attending school. This is when immigration becomes involved, and the student's status is in jeopardy. Foreign students are required by immigration to take a minimum of 12 credits. If they fall behind by one class, they are breaking the law. If they do not show up to school they can be deported. "Immigration will hold the students in a holding cell until the paperwork is done, and then they (students) can pass by their homes for a few minutes to collect some belongings before being escorted to the airport where they are put on a plane bound for their homeland," Cr<'wnhart says. Crownhart adds that immigration works in waves. "It sometimes depends on the U.S. relations. If their (foreign students) countries are having bad relations then they (immigration) put more pressure." Some students work illegally and can go for long time without being caught. If

caught, they are detained by immigration with a $1,500 to $2,000 bond.Crownhart is not required to look for students who do not show up to school, but she does out of concern. If she hears a tip from a friend of a student who is in trouble, ~ she says she will do her best to try to help that student. Many Americans feel that the foreigners around campus are rude because they talk in their own language and because they do not make an effort to mix with the American ... students. "Whenever people are in a setting where they are outnumbered, they want to be compatible, so they speak their own language. I think it is up to both foreigners and Americans to make an effort and try some one on one communication," Crownhart explains. She adds that professors around the campus should be trained more about the difficulties that can arise with international students. The Office of International Programs ,,, urges foreign students to intermingle with others and encourages them to stop by the office, located in the Arts building. o

The Institute for Entrepreneurship and Creativity at MSC has become a very distinguished success story. This area of emphasis is the brainchild of Dr. Courtney Price, associate professor at MSC's School of Business and director of the Institute, who wanted to offer an opportunity for innovators to start a new business, translate creative ideas into corporate profits or work in quality busin~ that have potential for growth. The Institute, established in the fall of 1986, got off the ground thanks to Price's research and development. And it stayed in the air thanks to a $50,000 grant in 1987 from the Colorado Commission of Higher Education (CCHE). The positive response from students keeps the Institute flying high. Students like Mary Stephens, graduating senior and staff assistant for the Institute, will be the first to receive a degree from MSC in entrepreneurship. "One of the first exercises students do when they start the program is a personality evaluation to see where they fit in," she said. Stephens knows where she fits in. Her plans include working for a large corporation and picking up management experience, maybe starting her own business and eventually becoming ·a small-business consultant. Students in the program become involved in the total business spectrum and gain valuable practical experience in anything from writing a business plan to running the resultant company. Stephens said the program also covers various entry strategies, "because there are so many ways to play the entrepreneurship game." Stephens said that 80 percent of new jobs being created in the United States are started by entrepreneurs, whereas major corpora-

,

tions are only creating 20 percent of the new jobs, and some corporations are even declining. "So with those kind of statistics, there is a good possibility that many people will end up working for a small or mid-sized firm that is growing, and entrepreneurship skills are really essential when working in a growing firm rather than a big corporation, which is really bureaucratic," she said. She added that even the big corporations are turning to a more entrepreneurship style because of competition. These corporations ' find it is easier to break up into smaller business units of about 100 people, which are then able to infiltrate the market much faster. "And where most business programs across the country prepare people to become part of a corporation, this program prepares them to become entrepreneurs," Stephens said. · Only about a dozen other programs in the United States are as eomprehensive as Metro's, she said, "and we are the only one in Colorado that offers a full program in ~ which you can get a degree." The program doesn't just rely on textbooks to spread the word to these students. Institute officials hope to have John Naisbitt, author ofMegatrends, visit the college this summer. Naisbitt is also the first advisory board member for MSC's entrepreneurship · program. And the Institute will sponsor a minority small-business development program Feb. 20 in conjunction with Adolph Coors Co., Mountain Bell and a coalition of Denverarea business and civic organizations. "The Institute wants to create a network for the entire Front Range and provide entrepreneurial education for various specialized groups, such as the minority program, women's groups and the elderly population," Stephens said. o

The offbeat world of Henry Rollins Kristin Hager Reporter

Writer and singer Henry Rollins has made appearances on the Auraria campus for several years now, but for some reason, I thought this time would be a big deal. It was. Rollins, former lead-singer of punk band Black Flag, a group with its umbilical cord attached to Los Angeles, attracted quite a bit of attention acr~ the United States and Europe during the late 70s and early 80s. He has also written a number of underground-type books which could be described as "dark, stark realism," or perhaps "the type of humanity that the bums living under I-25 and Broadway really are." I have followed his written works for a number ·of years, but have never heard him speak. I knew he had some popularity in Denver, but frankly did not expect the openarmed and si7.able welcome Rollins received at St Cajetan's Feb. 6. Neither did I expect his charisma and amiable nature. Every speaker I have ever witnessed at St. Cajetan's has used the stage and sometimes a podium to make his or her delivery from. That's what a stage is for, right? Well ... I got there about 15 minutes before Rollins began. The chairs were arranged into a horseshoe around a small table. On the table were a bottle of Perrier, two motor oil boxes and a strewn pile of paper. The place was packed, so my friends and I sat in the back. People were milling around and having reunions with old friends- hey, how've you been since the 'x' show? The dress code of the evening was comprised of dark greens, blacks and treasurefinds from area vintage clothing stores. A thin but well-built man with a military-type hair cut was browsing through the papers. Then he looked up. "Well," he said quietly. You could've heard a pin drop in the room, even though there were well over I 00 people crowding the chairs. "This set-up is nice and all, but if you want to move up here or sit on the floor or sit on the ledges, y'know, do it" Immediately, people launched forward to sit on the floor, closer to this admired speaker. Rollins spoke on numerable topics, many of them very personal, as is his style. But he addressed the group as ifletting a few friends

he'd known from way back and chanced to see at a party know what had been "going down." "Well, it's been about a year since I was here last- a long time- and I just wanted to tell you guys what's been happening." He proceeded to discuss his new band, The Rollins Band, and his new book Works (the contents of the motor oil boxes). Now, Rollins can easily be considered offensive with his profane descriptions, choices of subject matter and subsequent suggestions. His sardonic and self-critical sense of humor also scares the average American at times. In my opinion, it's meant to - as a sort of shock-treatment method of breaking through the protective screen of everyday Master Card life. But while his morals may frighten many puritanical-types, his basic ethics and love of parts of humanity shines through. Rollins told a story of a woman in a grocery store who walked about "a mile a year" with her walker, groceries swinging from the handles. People were pushing and shoving their way around her to avoid having to wait behind her. "Suddenly, there was a rush to escape Safeway," he said. The old woman stopped off to the side next to a trash can. "I thought maybe she was looking through the trash or something. I walked around and found out she was crying. Into the trash can. She wouldn't mess up the floor with her tears. It was the strongest image of humanity I think I've ever seen," Rollins said. One friend I brought had never heard of Rollins and certainly is no member of Denver's new-wave-slash-punk faction. A bit apprehensive at the first because of her Guess sweatshirt and jeans, she settled into the speech uneasily. After his anecdote of the old woman, there were tears in my friend's eyes. She bought a book after the show. With some people, punk is a fashion statement. With others, it's a chance to prove something. I think that with Rollins, it's purely a state of mind. Some think that Rollins is a punk guru, offering the masses clad in black a way of life. But Rollins offers no magic solutions, no philosophies on life, no explanations. It's purely observation. And Rollins has been Rollins for a longtime now. "I'm really getting worried about this get-

-------SPORTS--------Hoopsters trounce cross-town rivals John Gegner Reporter

MSC's Roadrunners trounced errorplagued Regis College 65-52 Feb. 8 at the Auraria gym in a match-up of cross-town rivals. "It was a real surprise," Metro coach Bob Hull said. "Normally our games with Regis are real close." Three weeks ago Metro squeaked by host Regis 59-57. After controlling the opening tip, the Roadrunners raced to a 12-3 lead when center Shefrie Staples banked in a five-footer off the glass. Metro quickly established a strong inside game with Staples and forward Rich Grosz dividing their team's first six field goals with three each. Regis gradually pecked away at the lead, closing the gap to 21-18 when Ranger forward Dave Bush nailed one of two foul shots with 4:58 remaining in the half. With the count at 27-20 and six seconds on the clock, Shun Tillman canned an eightfoot jumper. Then guard Kirk Smith iced Metro's 31-20 halftime lead by stealing the Ranger's iI'bound pass and hitting a jumper at the buzzer. MSC's 11 point halftime margin could have been much greater had the Roadrunners been able to cash in at the charity line. Metro

shot a paltry 44 percent, hitting seven of 16 free throws in the first half. Regis was worse, canning two of seven charity tosses. Perhaps it was only fitting that free throw shooting wizard Ted St. Martin, holder of the Guinness world record of 2,036 consecutive free throws made, provided the halftime entertainment by holding a clinic. The second half began with both teams trading hoops for the first five minutes. With the score 42-32 and 14:25 to play, Metro outscored Regis 11-1 over the next four

"We established our Inside game early. Than we kept It. Our guards did agood Job getting the ball Inside." - Bob Hull MSC men's basketball coach minutes and 39 seconds. Smith's steal and jam with 9:46 remaining ran the lead to 20 points at 53-33, and the Roadrunners had the game on ice. Staples upped the margin to 23 when he hit a bucket that put Metro ahead 61-38 with 5:44 on the clock. Both Regis coach Lonnie Porter and Hull emptied their benches in the final minutes. Regis' reserves cut Metro's lead to 13 points when the final buzzer sounded. See Hoopatera, p. 17

Losing streak goes to 13

·Lady cagers rally but fall short Elizabeth Rees Reporter

The MSC lady Roadrunners don't know how to quit. And thank God they don't. After falling behind the University of Denver Pioneers Feb. 9 by as much as 22, they rallied to within 6 points, but fell short .,... in a heartbreaking 71-65 loss. The loss is the 13th in a row for Metro. "We were down by nine points at the half

and bv as much as 22 earlv in the second half," MSC coach Cindy G~thals said. "We played a pretty evenly matched first half, but we let up on defense a little bit there at the very end, so they went ahead." In the second half, though, Metro made a spirited rally. "We came back in the second half and they got out on top. We changed defenses. We had been playing a mixed-up defense where after each (DU) score we went to a full-court press back into a zone (defense).

Ladies dunked again in swimming meets Kristin Hager Reporter

Training for the MSC swim team is now slowing down to give swimmers that extra "oomph" needed for the Intermountain Swimming League Championships later this month, and it's none too soon for the women, who lost two of the last three meets. In a triangular meet at the University of Northern Colorado Jan. 30, MSC lost to UNC 27 to 110 and University of Denver 53 to 78. "UNC and DU are just a step ahead of ,. us," said coach Steve Hadley. "We broke three records for MSC, and we swam well. But we were just up against better swimmers." Junior Donna Durham broke the record for 100-yard backstroke with a time of 1:09.74 against UNC, while junior Jana l Zamboni swam a 26.82 50-yard freestyle, and sophomore Greta Kuehl swam a 2:46.90 in the 200-yard breaststroke. At the Regis meet Feb. 6, no records were broken, but Metro won 64-39. "We had a lot of swims that were right c there (for a record), but none of them quite made it," Hadley said. He said the pool at Regis is not as modern as most collegiate pools, with no advanced gutters and lane lines designed to reduce waves in the pool. "I could see that the water was very

Staples led the Roadrunner attack with 19 points - 13 coming in the second half. Grosz had 15 points and Smith added 13. Regis' leading scorer center John Niles was held to 10 points. Guard Rich Grawer also finished with l 0 points. "We established our inside game early," Hull said. "Then we kept with it. Our guards -= did a good job of getting the ball inside." The front line of Staples, Grosz and Tillman combined for 23 rebounds and 42 points. Metro dominated the boards with a 45-28 rebounding edge. With the non-conference win, Metro • ran its record to 13-9. The Roadrunners host the University of Alaska-Fairbanks Feb. 12 at 7:30 p.m. and the University of AlaskaAnchorage Feb. 13 at 6:30 p.m. Next week the University of Denver Pioneers come to the Auraria gym for a 6:30 p.m. game on D Feb. 17. t

choppy. That could be why we didn't break any records. I don't know. But it was a good meet." He said that both the men's and women's teams began easier training last week to allow extra strength for the championships. "I think they're going to be swimming a little faster for the rest ofthe season," he said. Both teams compete at Colorado College in Colorado Springs Feb. 11. The ISL championship meet will also be held at CC Feb. 19 and 20, and Hadley said he is looking forward to it "I've seen a lot of improvement, and I think the kids feel good about themselves. A couple of schools may be stronger, but it's not a big meet. Who knows what will be happen. It's been a rewarding year for m~ D

"Anytime we didn't score, regardless of what the situation was, we were in a half court man-to-man defense and DU had a real tough time. So, when we went down bv 22, we went to a straight man-to-ma~ defense." Once again the Roadrunners had four players in double figures. Forward Sharon Coleman hit seven of 12 field goals and six of six free throws for 20 points. Guard Stacy Brandvold scored 15, center Carrie Hershfeldt aided the effort with 14 and guard Verna Julaton added 10. The second-half rally against the Pioneers has given Guthals a new-found confidence in her team.

"Yesterday was probably the best game we played since the losing streak started. I think we came out of that slump and played a real good ball game," she said. "We have some tough competition coming in." The Roadrunners hit 23 of 53 field goals, 17 of 21 free throws and two of six threepointers. The Pioneers made 29 of 68 field goals, eight of 14 free throws and five of IO three-pointers. The Roadrunners, 2-15 overall and 0-9 in the Continental Divide Conference, haven't given up. But remember, they don't quit when the chips are down. o
