Senate gives itself $4000 for banquet Robyn G. Schwartz The Metropolitan

Earth Day Aurarla atudents enjoyed aunahlne and rock and roll by "Jux County" IHI Friday afternoon at an Earth Day event sponsored by CU-Denver Events and CoPIAG. For more Earth Day details, see page 7.

The student government's award banquet is again a point of dissention among student government members. On April 11, student Sens. Kevin Miller and Joe Navarro presented a resolution to the Senate Rules Committee to cancel the awards banquet, which will be held May 4th, at the Brown Palace Hotel. Miller and Navarro protested that its approximately $4,000 pricetag is too exorbitant The committee did not a rove the resolution, but at the April 18, Senate ee e natesuspended that decision. and voted on the resolution. It was defeated. Miller said he will boycott the banquet this year, as he did last year, and other senators said they were certain Navarro would boycott also. "I have nothing against having an awards banquet, but to spend that kind of money is ridiculous," Miller said. The resolution itself stated that, "The ASMSC Student Senate failed to meet nearly all of the goals it set for itself in August of 1989; ... and the spending of$4,000 to $4,500 on a banquet is fiscally irrespoDSJble and exorbitant; and ... the senate is conducting business unprofessionally." Sens. Jeff Harnden and Jeremy Stuhl both said that they saw the point of the resolution, but that it was introduced too late in the year and that it would be more irresponsible to cancel the contracts than to go ahead and spend the money. Stuhl said that, at the time of the budget meetings, he had proposed that the cost of the banquet be reduced to $3,500 instead of the $4,500 that was eventually allocated for the banquet. He said the problem was that no one could agree on a lower price. Miller said he had been willing to agree on a $1,000 banquet, but that other senators disagreed with that figure. President Kelly Martin made most of the arrangements for the banquet Many of the senators said they thought the price for the banquet was extravagant and that they would have preferred less to be spent Hamden said that Martin had a few people help her arrange the banquet but that she made little effort to get input from the other senators. "She didn't go out of her way to get other people involved," he said. Sen. Gerri Madrid, who voted to cancel the banquet, said that Martin asked for names of those who would like to help with the arrangements, but that she never contacted anyone on the list. "It's vulgar, it's disgusting, and it's a really rude display to show students that we have control of the money," Madrid said about the expense of the banquet. Madrid said that less could have been spent on the banquet. Last year it was held at the Sheraton Hotel in Lakewocxf and it cost I~ than $3,000. m B1nquet pg. 5

The lecture and luncheon will take place at the Radisson Hote~ 1550 Court Place, at 11:45 a.m. The lecture is open to the public. Tickets are $17.50 per personand$175 per table(seats 10). For more information, call 556-4840.

Tbe~tto the Vice President

of Academic Affairs, Manuel &camilla, will begin holding roundtabl e discussions on Friday, May 4, to find candidates for a minority retention committee. Each discussion group will comprise 15 Metro students of various racial and ethnic backgrounds and will include students of diverse academic standing and status, &camilla said.

Escamllla emphasized that no press wlll be allowed at these sessions because he doesn't want the participants to feel Intimidated. "I have chosen mediocre students, high-risk students and good students for this group. rm not reauitingjust the student leaders," Escamilla said. The groups will include three students from each of the major ethnic groups, Hispanic, black,

Each meeting will have different members, and the ideas generated from the discussions will then be considered when the minority retention committee is formed. The committee will include students, faculty and administrators, he said. Esc,amma said be prefers to use the term "under-represented groups" rather than "minorities." He said that there are students who are not racial or ethnic minorities but that are under-represented as students at Metro.

He said he believes the key to student retention is how comfortable a student is in the school environment. He said be is open to any and all suggestions about what would make students feel more welcome and important "I want to feel they are important-because they are," Escamilla said. "We want to be able to address the needs of students enrolled at MSC," he said. "I want different perspectives."

Escamilla emphasiud that no press will be allowed at these sessions because he doesn't want the participants to feel intimidated or to withhold opinions because of the fear of being quoted or criticil.cd. He said that journalism students are as welcome as any others, however, to submit their names to be considered as members of future discus.9ons and he would not dis-

courage them to talk to other participants after the ses.9ons and •write about it for The Metropolitan. Escamilla came to Metro last January to take his present job, which was created by Metro Pr~ sidcnt Thomas Brewer last year. He is currently in clwge ofminority affairs at Metro. Brewer previously said he was speccfically hired for minority enrollment and retention. o

Key g·lut culprit in break-ins M.K. Wagner The Metropolitan

College · for kids The University of Colorado at Denver's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and School of the Arts are sponsoring the second annual College for Kids, a summer program geared for gifted and talented children (but open to anyone whose parents or teacher think would benefit from the program) in grades 4 through 9 at the CU-Denver campus. The program will consist of one- and tw~week workshops. The science and math workshops will run from June 25 through July 28, and the arts workshops will run from August 6 through August 16.

March 12, from the Technology Building Room l 19B. A member of MSC's Civil engineering technology department discovered the theft The CPU and printer were located in a locked room and secured by a cable. Neither the doors nor the windows were forced open, said Sgt. James Ferguson, of Auraria Public Safety. "Whether the

person/persons were legitimately supposed to have the keys or not isn't clear," he said. "Quite a few people have keys [to Room l 19A & B]," said Mel Langshaw, director of MSC Aca· demic Computer Center. The week after, on March 19, storage master diskettes in a file box were reported stolen from Room 119B, Ferguson said. A balancescale (wortb$1,000) was also stolen. The scale could be considered valuable by drug dealers, said Eldon Lindimore, chair of the civil engineering technology department. Alarmed that all faculty and many students have master keys to any lockable door in the Science Building, David Voth, a profeswr of biology, sent a memo to all Science Building occupants. In his memo, he wrote that be was not only concerned with vandalism of equipment and tests, but also the lack of privacy caused by students having keys. The first memo, Jan. 27, generated support for Voth's concerns with issuing master keys to students for offices and labs. A subsequent memo from Voth, in February, alleged there was a key duplicating machine located in Science Building Room 308 for the last eight years. In the memo, Votb noted that it has recently disappeared, and ex~ concern

regarding variation of rules in departments on who gets the keys. Voth mentioned in his last memo, March 30, that an unidentified math department prof~r left his keys at home and had to depend on the secretary to open his office. Voth questioned the reasoning behind a secretary having master keys. The amount of keys Ooating around on campus is alarming, said Pete Romanchuk, bead of the AHEC lock shop. AHEC is considered to be the landlord for the campus but cannot enforce rules for any of the three schools on campus, Romanchuk said. "We don't control keys that are issued," be said. ''The control stays within the department." The biggest problem is in the lack of keys being returned when a person has relinquished their job, their office or their college term, Romanchuk said. Three years ago, Romanchuk asked that John Utterback, coordinator for Business Services, pr~ vide him with a list of all people employed, and who bad ~ to keys. He said he received no response. Romanchuk said it is hard to get anyone's attention on problems like returning keys, but realius that the problem is a serious one. "Their own security is what we're talking about," he said. D

Committee plots new course for Metro Dianne Fujiwara The Metropolitan

All of the new landscaping and construction on the Auraria Campus is only the external view of Metro's future changes. Improvements in the academic environment are also being considered by a planning committee made up of students, faculty, administration and alumni. The College Planning Advisory Committee is looking at Denver's changing demographics and social trends to plot a course for Metro for the next five years. "It's important to set goals," said student Sen. Angie Binder who sits on the committee. "You should know where you're going and how to get there." The committee has studied trends that show individuals may experience as many as five career changes during their lifetime. It is estimated as much as four percent of the nation's work force will be in job retraining during the 1990s in response to changing technology and business demands.

According to the April 10 draft of the plan, local employers will be looking to nearby colleges and universities to retrain and find new employees. The emphasis of education at Metro may shift to more continuing education and special mid-career courses. An older college population will also mean a higher priority should be given to convenient, special programs, the draft said. What this might mean for Metro, according to the study, is exploring the options of more off-campus classes, video instruction, cooperative efforts with other schools and weekend classes. Other problems the committee is addressing are finding more classroom space, increasing funding and streamlining the maze of student support services. Binder said she would like to see a Student Information Center on campus, where students could go "to get all kinds of accurate information" about records, advising or financial aid. "[Students] shouldn't have to go through

Sen. Angle Binder all the frustration and aggravation," she said. Jett Conner, chair of the committee, said he would like to see the college move "in a bold direction to build a reputation as one of the top teaching institutions in the nation.

Instead of marketing the college, Conner said immediate attention can be brought to Metro by emphasizing an area such as the arts. ''It's unexpected," he said. The draft of the plan is still being revised, but should be available within two to three "There are two ways to earn a reputation. weeks, Conner said. One way is to manufacture a reputation The first step of Metro's 5-year plallWill through an image. The other way is to earn be to co~plete the-draft in committee. Then, it." __ - - ·administration will take over the job. D

Green guilty in meeting closure Mary Anderson News Editor

Student Sen. Michael Green, the Club Funding Committee chair who was charged with illegally holding a secret ~ion, pleaded guilty, Monday, April 23, to all four counts against him. The Met filed a charge with Student Government's Judicial Board, April 4, after Green kicked a reporter out of the room to discuss punishment against the Mile High Rangers, a club affiliated with the ROTC program at Metro. Green resigned as chair of CFC after pleading guilty to holding a secret meeting without quorum or the required 2/3 majority vote and under inappropriate circumstances, and attempting to fraud Metro students.

The Judicial Board refused to take any action against Green. The Met requested that any decisions made by the CFC as a result of the secret session be rendered null and void and that the provisions of the Sunshine Law be explained to student senators who bold secret sessions. Green said he did not know he was breaching the Sunshine Law when be went into secret session. Chief Justice Jeff Yon said that it is senators' responsibility to understand the law. Green and other senators who sat in on the meeting said that, during the illegal secret session, the president of the Mile High Rangers, David Hasenbalg, asked for a public apology from Green, who bad alleged that he had purposely falsified their club's funding request form. Green denied the request for an apology, they said. D

"It cost a lot less and they bad food left over," Madrid said. Madrid said she had not decided whether she would go to the banquet. She said that she felt she worked very hard this year and that she feels she deserves some sort of reward, but that it bothered her that so much is being spent. "I had no idea I'd have to deal with the game playing, Kleg, ... and racism. I bad to work all year to teach myself bow to work with this system," Madrid said At the April 18 senate meeting Martin said that cancellation of the contracts could result in a law suit from the Brown Palace Hotel SACAB member Dan Becker said the

contract stated that cancellation within 30 days of the banquet could result in forfeiture of the deposit and posstble liability for up to one half of revenues expected from tbe event. Becker said that no deposit had been put down and that he doubted the hotel would pursue the matter legally. Valerie Vallos, associate justice for the Judicial Board and former student senator said that she could understand that some students might be angry that the student government would be enjoying an extravagant dinner paid for by student fees, but that she thinks that, for most students, their involvement in student government stops there. "I volunteer my time here, I don't get paid for this. I think the year-end banquet is appropriate," said Senator Greg Brewer. D

Bad ad cheats students Andy Glaess The Metropolitan

A misleading advertisement has cost several Metro students the chance of receiving a scholarship award The ad, which ran on the back page of the March 16 ~ue of The MeJropolilan, gave an April 1 application deadline for the MSC Colorado Scholars Awards. Several academic departments of the school, however, bad earlier deadlines. Some students who tried to apply to those departments by April l, were told they were no longer eligible. "I was told that many people had been turned away, so I tried to look into the matter," said Judy Castonguay, a Metro student who works in Student Support Services. "It turned out that nobody would take responsibility for the ad." A review of records at the Met shows that the advertisement was placed by the Financial Aid Office. Financial Aid officials declined comment. "About 10 students came around trying to apply, but it was too late - we had to tum them away," said Marilyn Summers, a secretary in the English department, which bad a March 16 deadline. o

#Drug czar praises state Met Staff The leader of America's "war on drugs" visited the State Capitol April 18, and said control of drug use must begin in the workplace, and singled out University of Colorado faculty as a group to be tested. William Bennett, director of the Office of National Drug Control Strategy, praised Colorado's efforts in the drug war. He said the state is at the forefront in combating the country's drug problem. Currently, Colorado is one of four states which suspends driver's licenses of drug offenders. Bennett said be supports three _.. bills currently in the Colorado Legislature designed to punish offenders.

The bills would provide for mandatory drug testing, drug-free workplaces and measures to prevent workers from collecting unemployment insurance if their job perfonnance was impaired by drug and alochol use. "The keys to a drug-free workplace are fair, accurate drug tests and user-accountability," Bennett said Colorado House Speaker Carl Bledsoe said, "What Mr. Bennett has to say is timely and important... Bennett noted a law passed in Utah in 1987 dealing with private-sector drug testing. "It (the law) authoriz.es the private sector to test all employees with accuracy and fairness guidelines without restrictions on who a business may test," he said

George Walker, a candidate for the University of Colorado Board of Regents, spoke against Bennett's policies on the capitol steps. Walker said that Bennett suggested random drug testing for all faculty members at CU-Boulder, and Walker questioned why that school bad been singled out. Walker said he opposed the "war on drugs," and that marijuana and other drugs should be legalized. He did not offer an opinion of Colorado's pending bills in the le~lature.

Bennett was formerly Secretary of Education in the Reagan administration and penned "drug czar" when President Bush took office, and appointed him to bis present position. o

World Issues Forum U.S. fears economic ,, unity in Europe Met Staff

a European government.

The Metropolitan

Economically, Americans have been slow to propose joint ventures with European businesses and government has not helped business become more involved, Conner said. "We should vigorously support legislation to keep trade coming in," Conner said. "We must help producers who work abroad and help with retraining employees. We must aid American business." And with the problems with savings and loans and the spending attitude of Americans, there's little money for capital investment in foreign nations, he said. The United States is afraid of what Conner termed a "fortress Eur~pe," in which Europe wouldn't be receptive to foreign trade or will export goods but won't import American goods - similar to the Japanese-American economic relationship. "Maybe I'm too cautious," Conner said, "but these are not happy economic times for the U.S. in international trade, and we're not well-positioned to take advantage of the opportunity in Europe." o

The United States may be more threatened than helped by the economic union of Europe in 1992, the chairman of MSC's political science department said Wednesday, April 18. The United States is not in an economic position to propose joint ventures with European companies and therefore may not benefit economically as much as the nation would like, Jett Conner said at the World Issues Forum. Conner teaches world and national political science courses at Metro. Th~ p~n is for 12 countries in Europe to combme mto one European community by 1992. The plan includes implementing a common economy, currency, taxes, environmental agency, agriculture, education and health care. It won't be easy for Europe to carry out, Conner said, because sovereign nations must give up some of their individual power in favor of "supemationalism," or allegiance to

Questions about human meaning and purpose in the world, discussions about Indian sorcery and mystical experience and controversy over changing lifestyles provoked thought and piqued the interest of participants ofMSC's World Issues Forum on Thursday, April 19. The forum's three speakers, MSC modern language chair, David Conde, visiting · speaker, Roberto Cantu and MSC ~istant Vice President of Student Affairs, Gwendolyn Thomas, provided their audience with insights into contemporary black and Hispanic novels. Conde talked about Carlos Castaneda's eight novels, which describe his protagonist's (Carlos) apprenticeship to Don Juan, a Yaqui sorcerer of Southern Arizona. Don Juan teaches Carlos lessons about life and death, Conde said. Don Juan attempts to teach Carlos the difference between the concepts of Tonal and Nagual. Tonal, Conde said, is Western man's thinking which involves structure and concepts, and Nagual is everything outside of that structure. An example ofNagual, Conde said, is when you hit a baseball and "just by the feel of the ball on the bat, you know it's going for a home run." Don Juan teaches Carlos a lesson about death, reminding him that "it is always Ollr. your left side." · Novelists reveal personal truths that Hispanic social scientists ignore, Robert Cantu said

Cantu focused on the first contemporary Hispanic novel "Pocho," (1959), which portrays a sad and disillusioned young man looking for his identity. The protagonist, Richard Rubio, is "marginalized," a misfit, not comfortable with his Mexican roots nor the American society in which he lives, Cantu said. Black women writers have given many insights into their sisters' experience oflearning who they are, said Gwendolyn Thomas, who spoke about mystical experience, female identity and independence. She cited Alice Walker's ''The Temple of My Familiar," which deals with reincarnation and Toni Morrison's "The Song of Solomon" as examples of that mystic experience. The protagonist in "The Temple of My Familiar" has lived both as a man and a woman, a white and a black, she said. In "Song of Solomon" a main character, the girl's father, is killed and then reappears in a later chapter. "I had to re-read the previous chapter to be sure I hadn't misinterpreted it," she said. A protagonist, Celie, finds her identity in a lesbian relationship in Alice Walker's ''The Color Purple," purple symbolizing homosexuality. "Lesbianism is always important in an environment where women are cut off from men," Thomas said. Ntozake Shange's novel "Sassafrass, Cypress and Indigo," is about female financial independence. A woman supports her three daughters by weaving cloth, she said "There is something within the institution of marriage that denies personal freedom," Thomas said. o

Art is in the eyes of the beholder. If you don't like what you see, that•s OK. Why you don't like it is what's important to professors of art, said E.C. Cunningham, assistant professor in Metro's art department at the April 18 World Issues Forum. During the forum, four professors from Metro's art department spoke at the Student Union during a contemporary arts segment Each professor spoke on a number of i~ues relating to art and the direction it is taking. Barbara Houghton, art department chair, b,egan the ~ion ,by saying, "I believe there has been a consistent erosion of bas.it 8:fts ed1lcafi2n in,,our schools, anq~ l~ ofa sense of value in the arts in genelal tieca~ ':!e ~~lithe arts fo~,P.nt;~i~,!""en~~ d!!ih

"Understanding and learning African art can enhance our understanding of what it means to be human. "The idea that art can exist on its own is a difficult idea to get acr~ to students." Because money for art is being drastically cut, she said. students are not be[ng exposed to other art cultures such as African art. "When we look at African art, we reali7.e that art isn't something that sits on a wall," she said. "Art is meant to be looked at in a sophisticated way, and the children in our society do not have the equipment to deal with art in that way. By teaching children about. different cultures and their art, we can achieve that sophistication."

Earth Day founder , visits campus Sharon Dunn The Metropolitan

Former U.S. Sen. Gaylord Nelson urged students to berome the "conservation generation" in a speech at the Student Union, April 18, to promote the 20th anniversary of Earth Day. Nelson founded Earth Day in 1970, and spoke at Metro during a nation-wide teacbin to educate students on environmental problems. Now, in 1990, he has come back to project the same message and encourage students to get involved in environmental conservation. "I don't want to come limping back here on the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day when I am 94 years old -and have the embara.s.5ing responsibility of telling your children that you didn't do your duty," he told the group of about 50 students. ... "If you don't participate, you don't have any influence, and the system doesn't work very well," he said. Nelson told the students three ways that they can help save the planet over the next 30 years. First, he said, people have to develop a "social compact," involving all aspects of society to recognize and agree that the population now is seriously damaging the ecosystem. At the heart of the matter, Nelson said, a generation must be raised and guided by a ~- conservation ethic. For 200 years, he said, society has been degrading the planet, and conservation could have been started years ago with a little more political involvement. This involvement would mainly be incorporating more presidential leadership, he said. Nelson said that President Bush has kept silent despite all of the issues and environmental problems raised in the media. Nelson urged the students to write to Bush and let him know they care and are willing to get involved. "Don't worry about an address, I'm sure the post office will know where to find him," he said

Using an analogy of capitalism, Nelson said that the Earth's resource base (air, water, forests, wildlife, soil and scenic beauty) is our capital, and the wealth of the country. "Instead of just using our interest ... ," he said, "we're spending our capital and counting it on the profit side of the ledger, under the a.s.5umption that our resources are boundless." On the first Earth Day, Nelson said he had two purposes in mind - to have a demonstration big enough to get attention, and to educate. When picking a date for Earth Day, Nelson said that be wanted a day after spring vacation and before final exams, so he picked April 22. Nevertheless, he said he was accused of deviously attempting to honor the birthday of Vladimir Lenin, a former Marxist Russian ruler. Nelson said he apologized for not being a good mathemetician, and explained approximately seven million people have been born on each day of a year.

'If you don't participate. you don't have any Influence and the system doesn't work very well.' That first Earth Day resulted in the formation of the Environmental Protection Agency, and the first clean air and water acts, marking the beginning of the environmental movement. In 1990, Nelson who is now a counselor for the Wilderness Society, said he wants to rekindle the spirit of saving the environment by posing demonstrations that give people an opportunity t express themselves on environmental issues. "You've got to be the conservation generation, you've got to provide the leadership we need," Nelson said in closing. "You've got to be guided by a conservation ethic. If we're going to achieve it, it's up to you - the students." o

The position would be full-time for the

1990/91 school year and would initially cost $34,000, said Student Sen. Meichell Walsh, who sits on the SAD. After the first year, Esquibel said he would "look to state funding for help," instead of having student fees pay the proposed salary. "Studies have shown that we lose a large percentage of minority students the first two •years," Esquibel said He said a government study shows that several factors influence the retention of minority students. The factors include student involvement in campus life and high quality of faculty, staff and financial aid, Esquibel said. "Inadequate financial aid is the biggest factor in the lack of minority students on

Vets' memorial debated Lawrence Jones The Metropolitan

A proposal to use surplus bond fee money to build a permanent memorial on the Auraria Campus to all United States veterans bas been submitted by MSC Student Body Chief of Staff, A. Scott Gassman. CUDenver Student Body President, Mark Johnson, opposed the proposal and said such a use of funds is "not appropriate." The proposed monument will oost $24,000 - $35,000, according to buds Grassman had received. The money to finance this project would come from the surplus of the student bond fee that each student pays when registering at Auraria for any of the three schools. Each student pays $19.50 as part of their registration fees. This money is then placed in an account which effectively pays for the Student Union Building. When there is an excess in this account over what is needed for that year, then the Auraria Board can decide on how this money is to be spent. The Associated Students of the Community College of Denver's Council President, Daniel Blair stated in a letter, "The ASCCD hereby recogniz.es the Veteran's Monument proposal as sound, timely and of the highest merit" However, although they did not wish to delay the proposal, it was also made clear in the letter that the cost of the monument was not acceptable, and still must be discus.5ed. The money is already available, according to Gassman. "It is sitting in the bank," he said. Gassman said that he felt that the community supports Auraria, and now, "It's time to give something back to the community." Otherwise, Gassman said, the money will ·~ust sit there." Johnson disagreed with the availability of the funds. "It's just not true at all," he said,

referring to Gassman's assessment of the monies available. Johnson stated that any money used for such a monument would reduce the contigency area of the bond fund. The surplus money Gassman wants to use for the monument is the same money that would be used to cover any lack of funds due to a drop in student enrollment, thereby making it possible for Auraria to meet its financial obligations concerning the Student Union, Johnson said. The funding of the monument is not the only area of contention Gassman has had to deal with since making his proposal. Gassman said that the focus and dedication of the monument will be to all United States veterans. "To recogniz.e people who made the sacrifice," he said. Gassman said that, in talking with Metro students, he has received positive responses from most Johnson said, however, that the CU-Denver Senate raised questions against the focus ofthe monument and felt it might be too narrow. Johnson stated the senate was concerned about possible insult to native and Asian Americans. "You have to counter-propose. If you don't like it, give another idea to use this money," Gassman said. According to Johnson, CU-Denver Student Body Vice President Tim Gelston will be making such a counter-proposal. Johnson said the idea of this proposal will be to enclose a garden area in the library, making it into an indoor terrarium, and dedicating it to something along the lines of a veterans memorial. Johnson said that improvement projects such as this are more appropriate than the construction of a permanent "monolithic structure that everyone may not agree with." Gassman, however, has received support of his idea from areas outside of the student body. Rep. Pat Schroeder, D-Colo., stated in

a letter to Gassman, "It is well known that many students on the Auraria Campus are veterans. They deserve recognition of service to our country, and your desire to honor them this way is commendable." Lynn Denzin, director of Veterans' Services at Auraria also offered her support. "Anytime you honor people who have served their country, it's appropriate," she said. As a possible solution to the quarrels over the use of funds for a monument at Auraria, Jake Lindsay, program specialist for Veterans' Upward Bound at Auraria, said that a contribution, in Auraria's name, to a movement currently attempting to establish a fund for a Colorado state monument to veterans could be an alternative. "I don't think we would need a memorial here on campus," he said. Denzin also mentioned this idea as an alternative. However, Lindsay did state that he felt it important that veterans be honored. All too often, he said, once the public clamour after a war bas quieted, the veterans are forgotten by the people. "I think non-veterans don't realize the sacrifices made on their behalf," he said. "Even though they are the recipients of those sacrifices." Even the right to "bitch" about this issue was purchased by the sacrifices of veterans, Lindsay said. The site of the proposed monument would be in the red-brick square by the Student Union, immediately north of the flagpole. The proposal will be examined by the Student Advisory Committee to the Atuaria Board and then sent to the board for approval. After time taken to debate the proposal, possibly a few weeks, the board will make its decision on whether the Auraria campus will have a monument to all U.S. veterans. o

BSA compensation request refused Met Staff The Metropolitan

The Student Affairs Board denied the Black Student Alliance additional funding on April 23, for their March trip to the Big Eight Leadership Conference in Ames, Iowa. The additional funds requested at the April 9, SAB meeting, were intended to cover the cost of four members' air fare to the event The SAB, making an exception to fund a club, funded the alliance $6,000 in February, with stipulations on bow the money would be used With these stipulations in mind. Lisa Calderon, the alliance's president, agreed to cover air fare expenses with proceeds from the ticket sales of a planned Black and White Ball. Calderon told the SAB that each alliance member who would attend the conference would sell IO tickets to the ball. Because not enough tickets were sold. the ball was cancelled. The alliance's original funding proposal asked for money to cover air fare expenses for Calderon and Richard Jackson, their faculty adviser, and the costs ofrenting a bus for 35 other alliance members. Although Calderon has previously questioned the SAB's funding procedures and has said that administration is insensitive about the alliance's money problems, students have a majority vote on the SAB.

The SAB is composed of six student senators, four faculty senators, and one administrator from the Budget Office. The board had previously told the alliance that they are not permitted to fund faculty travel, and questioned their decisions to fly only one member to Iowa, while all others traveled by bus. Calderon agreed to follow that stipulation.

Lisa Calderon Although the original funding was for 35 members, only 14 went to the conference. Four members traveled by plane, and only IO by bus. According to student Sen. Jeff Harnden, the SAB voted against additional funding to reiterate the stipulations made in the original approval. "I will not give a statement," Calderon said. "because I think the Met is an inaccurate, libelous, slanderous rag." o

LETTERS Stranger Than Fiction By Chad Morris All right. Well, the end of the school year is almost here and before you all throw on your flowered (Hawaiian or tie-dyed, depending on your particular bent) shirts and start screaming "Party, Party, Party!" I think it's time we took a quick look back at some of the people, places and things that made this year possible, shall we? You know, the only problem with writing a year-end story about Metro is that there isn't really anything to write about. Take last fall, for example. I could sum last fall up with a single name - Joel Kleg . Yep, there he is, thealledgedly racist, gun-toting, homophobic and semi-psychotic MSC of D (oooh, love that name change, babe) Stupid Senator in all his slimy glory. Let's just leave him in his own little personally created Hell, shall we? It still amazes me that Stupid Government can spend an entire semester, and who knows how much money, trying to get rid of a single deranged person. But I guess we'll get to see history repeat itself since you bozos re-elected the same dolts for next year. What's more, the semester ended on a sad note with the tragic para-sailing death of Met sports editor Knute Nelson. The impact of Knute's death affected us all. Only recently has Knute's devastated fiancee stopped wearing her black arm band - which is good because her arm was turning blue. OK, so things were looking down last semester. But Christmas turned out all right - I mean, we had that whole Berlin-Wall-come-tumblin'-down thing going on. But, just when you thought the world was shaking off some of the destruction of the last few decades, the Kennebunkport Kid, our buddy George, decided to ruin the holidays for a bunch of Gls and a poor, misdirected Stealth Fighter pilot by sending them all down to Panama for a few days of fun, sun, death and stupidity.

Irish debaters say thanks Editor, The Irish Debate team would like, through your widely read campus newspaper, to extend our thanks to at least some of the people at Metro State who helped to make our recent debating trip so memorable. We will treasure our memories of our debate against your Metro team until we go to our graves. Not only did Nick Oliva, Chris Wellman and Lawrence Pryor give us a fine debate, but they also treated us to some fine Denver hospitality by helping us to explore your great city. Mention must also be made of two glorious luncheons held in our honor by the president of your college and also by the student government. We found these were a great way to mix with your academic and student populations. Also thanks must go to Janet Dadisman in your PR department, who was a kind and patient guide for us when dealing with the media.

We cannot extend any individual thanks to those many people who supported in any way our Irish Debate Series, because naming them individually would take too long. Our best wishes and prayers go out to them. Finally, one man who has made a huge contribution to the Irish Debate Series and whose hard work and perserverance keeps the tour going from success to success is professor Gary Holbrook, of the speech and communications department. His continuing support is something that we Irish appreciate deeply, as it allows us to explore the culture of your beautiful region and meet so many wonderful people. Again many thanks to all at Metro State who made our trip to America so memorable.

U.N. foolishness emba"assing Editor, I am writing in reply to a Met article April 20, that was entitled "Metro trip marred byepranks." I was not "up&et" but amused by the open and unethical maneuvering of ASUCD Vice-Chair of the Finance Board (Jerry Sullivan), who lusted after a free trip to NYC {after he forgot to apply promptly for the UN simulation). I was already selected to go with UCO but, when UCD's group degenerated into disorganization and House Unamerican Activities Committee-like accusation meetings, I chose to go with MSC who had no such problems. In terms of the statue, no one pointed the finger at MSC but it was meant to do so. The MSC group was unaware of the fire alarm mentioned on the party floor.

I take offense at the word "rumormongering" from one who has more experience in that art and who has no more UCO support than on,e who has to quietly run for ASUCD President as a write-in, ... hoping that no one has read the Met or Advocate. I refrained personally from suing Sullivan over Sullivan's further slanders because no one values Sullivan's opinions and Sullivan will never be worth any real money. I am relieved that Sullivan has finally learned to quit annoying Montoya. I hope that Sullivan can learn to do this with students in general, if he is finally on the road to an adult's self-control. I wish that I can avoid stepping on Sullivan's geometrically expanding ego, since Sullivan and Amsberry do not rule UCO or the world.

Now, where were we? Oh yeah, Earth Day. What a lovely media farce. Just another example of life's little inconsistencies. OK, we're supposed to spend a single day, thinking , talking and trying to feel good about doing things to save our environment. Fine, I have no problem with that. I mean, we treat fish in fish tank better than we treat ourselves. But while we're doing this, we are also supposed to be buying official Earth Day T-shirts, which were printed on 50 percent non-biodegradable polyester fabric, watching the Official Earth Day Special catching all the industrial promotion for Time-Warner Corp. and reading the Life Magazine Earth Day issue, which is printed on that lovely glossy, tough-to-recycle paper. I sat there watching that stupid special and I was reminded of the "A Christmas Carol " in "Scrooged." The show featured stellar performances by Buddy Hackett as Scrooge and the Solid Gold Dancers - total media rip-off. Wasn't there a better way to get the point across than to waste two hours of my time {yeah, sure, I had a choice) with a bunch of famous people telling me to recycle and take shorter showers? Well, I'm out of space and out of breath, so I'll finish this final column by simply saying that I've really loved having the opportunity to spout off on anything I wanted to all year. I often wonder if more people did this instead of just resigning themselves to indifference that the world might be a better place .... Naaaaaaaahhhhhhhh! But go have a nice, ecologically sound life anyway.

EDITORIAL

-Judicial Board biased, egotistical If today's members of Student Government's Judicial Board are tomorrow's judges, society is in trouble. Instead of judges being fair, unbiased and settling •disputes, our courts will be littered with egocentric power-hungry individuals making decisions that serve nobody but themselves and their buddies in the legislative and executive branches. Calling the judicial branch of Student Government "judicial" in the first place is a travesty and insults the sensibilities of anybody even remotely tam iliar with the connotation of ~the term . As the five members of that branch try to decide if they have jurisdiction over the Met, we shake our heads in pity. The Judicial Board does not seem to realize that it must confine its wisdom-mongering to Student Government. Last Monday, its members entertained the delirious notion that it would hear a charge of "libalist slander {sic)" leveled against the Met by senator Michael Green, who illegally held a secret session in a Club Funding Committee meeting April 2. Moments after the Met informed the Judicial Board -<\hat we do not recognize their authority, we were asked when was a good date and time for us to come and defend ourselves. It is a shame that this misguided senator over estirAates the ability of his collegues on the Judicial Board to help him out and prevent our staff from ,.making him look bad. It's a greater shame that those

colleagues are under the same delusion. We wonder if they think they can dispatch Public Safety down to our newsroom to confiscate our pencils, paper and typewriters. Perhaps the senator, who pleaded guilty to holding an illegal meeting, wants a retraction. But we don't take back what we write when it is the truth. There is nothing to decide. The proper arena for this grievance is the MSC Board of Publications, the only entity we need to answer to. If the senator wants to be dramatic, he can take it to a real court with real authority, not a kangaroo court full of the criminal justice department's student monkeys. It is a shame that the aspiring lawyers on the Judicial Board are so myopic that they run their pretend game at real law with no realization of the true purpose of their activities. The Judicial Board is supposd to settle disputes between student government members and hear students' complaints against those members. Not the reverse. Driven by the urge to feel omnipotent, the justices handled the Met's complaint against the senator for holding the illegal secret session in a way that showed us we needed a crash course in trial procedure and Latin terms for the hearing. The Judicial Board would have clouded the hearing by using strict trial procedure. We were given five minutes for an opening statement, 10 minutes for a direct and 15 minutes for a crossexamination of the witnesses. Perry Mason would have been proud.

Then, after the senator pleaded guilty anyway, the members of the board refused to levy any punishment. They apparently have no desire for student senators to know the provisions of the Sunshine Law that regulates secret sessions. Nor would the Judicial Board disqualify one of the justices who spent the past week running around campus advertising his bias against the Met. Ignoring court precedents of this state, three affadavits and the Judicial Code of Ethics, they decided to keep him on the board. So much for Mount Objectivity. It's obvious that the Judicial Board recognizes only the laws it wants to and ignores all others. The fact of the matter is that an arbritration panel would be much more effective for the average student and senators not majoring in criminal justice. But if they did that, then procedures, technicalities and a foreign language could not mask their good-oleboy system of making decisions. Perhaps that is why the grievance was not directed to the Board of Publications - they don't speak Latin there. Res ipsa loquitur nunc por tune prima facia, ultra vires, noscitur a sociis VOID AB IN/TIO.• *Translator's note: The act speaks for itself, then for now, on the face of the facts, without authority, known by its associates, VOID FROM THE BEGINNING.

He said the media try to be objective by covering events rather than truth. Objectivity is not a reality, he said, but a worthy aspiration and he proposed developing a "reasonable, informed subjectivity" as opposed to objectivity.

Media minorities discussed Chris Caylor The Metropolitan

...

While the print and broadcast media have made significant strides in the coverage and employment of minorities, there is still much room for improvement, a panel ofjournalists decided on Thursday, April 19. The colloquium, "Media and Minorities: Seeking Fairness, Balance and Objectivity," met at the University of Denver and featured many prominent local journalists from various ethnic backgrounds. They formed two panels, discussing the media's commitment to fairness and coverage of specialized audiences and sports role models and stereotypes. Guest speaker Louis Freeman, a past executive director of the Colorado Black Chamber ofCommerce, opened the seminar. "We live in a society where minority values are largely unknown," he said. ''The field (journalism), if it is to truly serve the nation, must deal with all components of the nation."

'I've been In the locker room and I've seen what goes on ... If you think there's no racism In sports, you're dreaming.' All members of the first panel agreed that minorities need to play a more vital role in the coverage of minority issues and as reporters as well. David G. Ronquillo, the editor of "La Voz," a Denver Hispanic newspaper, said publications such as his must practice "advocacy journalism," but warned against yellow journalism or sensationalism. Susan Arkeketa, president of the Native American J oumalists Aswciation, criticired stereotyping of all minorities, especially native Americans. "By stereotyping us, other people show their ignorance," she said. "Rocky Mountain News" Associate Editor Jean Otto said that eight percent of the employees of all 1,600 daily newspapers are minorities. That figure needs to change immediately, she said. "Minority reporters should not be limited to covering events in their respective ethnic communities," she said. "They should be covering city hall or business, like anyone else."

April 27, 1990 ..

Ray Metoyer, KUSA-TV reporter and president of the Colorado Association of Black Journalists, said someting is wrong with the decision-making pr~ in the coverage of minorities. He theoriud that blacks are receiving more negative publicity due to Denver's growing gang problem, and some blacks are unfairly stereotyped. "I believe there should be more positive stories about blacks and minorities in general," Metoyer said. He pointed out a story which he broke last fall for KUSA-TV about a man named Norman Rice who was elected Seattle's first black mayor. Rice is a Denver native. No other Denver TV station or newspaper has done a profile story on Rice, and Metoyer wondered why. "How could a story like this slip through the cracks?" Metoyer asked. "A man born and raised in Denver, who graduated from CU-Boulder, goes off and gets elected mayor of Seattle. A story like this comes along maybe once in 30 or 40 years.

'We llve In a society where minority values are largely unknown.'

"The decision-making needs to be looked at closely when stories like Norm Rice are missed." The second panel consisted ofKCNC-TV sports anchor Les Shapiro, former Denver Bronco and current "Denver Huddle" commentator Steve Watson and Regis College basketball coach Lonnie Porter.

Shapiro said the issues of stereotyping, discrimination and who role models should be will never be resolved. "Everybody's going to have opinions," he said. "The best thing you can do is listen to all sides of the argument and become better informed." "I've been in the locker room and I've seen what goes on," he said. "If you think there is no racism in sports, you're dreaming." He added that Denver is better than most cities at treating minority sports figur~ fairly. Watson said he is disgusted by athletes who criticire the media for being "too personal."

"Sports figures should be scrutiniz.ed," he said. "They are public figures, like the mayor or police chief. I've personally had enough of the crybaby attitude some athletes have." "They want the media attention until they do something wrong or negative," Shapiro said. ''Then they want the media out of their lives." Porter said athletes also have a responsibility to be role models, especially for younger people. "When you are an athlete, you are a role model and you have to realize there are • certain things you just can't do," he said. Watson disagreed. "I don't want anyone out there trying to be like me, except my kids," he said. "Steve Watson does the best he can for Steve Watson, not anyone else. That's how it should be." Porter said the media should not skirt sensitive issues just to avoid controversy. "They need to stand up and accept responsibility for what they print" he said. "Maybe the issue will never be resolved, but we at least need to make an effort." o

Author week honors campus talent Heather Snyder The Metropolitan

One-hundred twelve members of the Auraria faculty and staff were honored at the fourth annual Campus Author Week at the Auraria Book Center, April 16-20. Campus Author Week was created by the Book Center's Office Manager/Assistant Buyer Lisa Horton, and the Manager of the General Books Department, Susan Stuessie, in 1987. They wanted to recognire professors who have written books, as well as make students aware that these authors are on campus.

ups ..

College costs are high and are always going up but now you can start earning the money you need ... Pay starts at $8 an hour for steady part time PACKAGE HANDLERS and you can choose from a variety of shifts. 4 am-8 am, 5:30 pm-9:30 pm, 10:30 pm-2:30 am Shifts vary from 3-5 hrs.

In order to be included in Campus Author Week, certain criteria must be met. The author must be working on or have worked on this campus. Professors emeritus as well as professors who have gone on sabbatical are also included. The author's book must be in print, and articles in periodicals are not included. Each year, Stuessie and Horton invite authors to attend a reception in their honor, held at the Book Center. According to Horton, each year the attendance at the reception is a little higher. All authors are invited, and if some can't make it, they receive a note in the mail saying "Sorry we missed you," as well as a copy of the catalog listing all the authors and their accomplishments. 1

Besides the reception and the catalog, the books are displayed in front of the store all week long. The Book Center also advertises the event in The Metropolitan. The stort_. tries to keep at least one book in stock by each author year-round, and these are mat'ked by special signs noting that the book was written by a campus author. Priscilla Donovan, who works with sponsored programs at CU-Denver, said that she was very honored to be recognized. She is the co-author of"Whole Brain Thinking," a book that deals with the application of thinking with both sides of the brain in the workplace. She has just recently published a book called "The Flexibility Factor," which expands on the theory that people who use more of their brains adapt to change more readily. "I find this (the reception) more rewarding than most of the other things (that go with writing a book)," Donovan said Gretchen Minney, director of the Book Center, said she thought it was good for students to see that their professors write and are accomplished authors. "I think the diversity oftitles is wonderful," she said. "It shows just how diverse the campus is." Anyone wishing to have a catalog of the campus authors may pick up one at the Book Center. o

Sleep deprivation a student's nightmare Elizabeth Larter The Metropolitan

..

Sprawled and draped over couches and chairs, curled in corners and cloistered in cubicles, hundreds of students slumber, attempting to compensate for study-filled, sleepless hours. Finals, term papers and semester-long procrastination have begun to turn the student body into student zombies. Sleep deprivation is rampant on campus. An informal survey of Auraria students revealed that getting more sleep is something that most students day-dream about. Of the students who were awake while being interviewed, most said they are increasingly finding themselves not getting enough sleep. One student, 21-year-old sophomore Tony Avery, when asked about his need for sleep joked, "What's that?" Realistically, he says he averages only six and a half hours of sleep per night. Lately though, he says he must stay up past his I I p.m. bedtime in order to prepare for cl~ the next day. Students surveyed were also asked whether or not they had skipped class to sleep in. Assuming that the nods received nods of affirmation and not part of the dCYling reflex, most students have chosen the sandman over the professor at least once this semester. While this lack of sleep among students is nothing new, and it is generally accepted as a fact of college life, the latest research on sleep deprivation indicates that it is a much more seiious problem than originally believed. Fast-living sleep skimpers who laugh off their need for sleep with catchy phrases like, "You'll get plenty of sleep after you're dead,,. may be dead a lot sooner. As reported in a "Rocky Mountain News" story recently, James Maas, a researcher at Cornell University, has found that people not getting adequate sleep shorten their life span eight to 10 years. For those who believe that "sleep is a waste of time," research has shown that just the opposite is true. Dr. William Dement,

director of the Sleep Disorders Center at Standford University School of Medicine, reports that the consequences of sleepiness include loss ofinitiative and energy, attention lapses, distractability and fatigue. What this essentially means is that, although you create a few extra hours for yourself by not sleeping as much, these hours are likely to be unproductive. You're more likely to be sitting staring into space than actually getting work done. In addition, many of the stay-awake strategies used by time-crunched students are unhealty and compound the problems created by sleep deprivation. Excessive coffee drinking, smoking, sugar binges and other quick pick-ups have nagative physical and psychological effects as well. Sue Baker, R.N. at the Student Health Center, said that an upset stomach and increased blood pressure can result from too much coffee consumption. She also said that whenever students do not get enough rest, they put stress on their bodies that tends to depress the immune system. Then, they are more likely to get colds, sore throats and other illnesses. It seems the best thing students can do to avoid the negative effects of sleep deprivation is to regularly get eight hours of sleep a night More students should try to adopt an attitude similar to 24-year-old senior Cassie May's. She says, ''If it's (her homework) not done by 10 p.m., it's not getting done." Of course, to make this work, students must make a concerted effort to abandon procrastination for advance planning. The meaning of the phrase "the last minute" must mean 9:59 p.m. instead of the wee hours of the morning. Finally, the worst thing a student can do is to try to pull an "all-nighter." These students, especially those who try to stay up all night to finish writing assignments, inevitably experience profound lack of concentration and ummm ... what else ... let's see ... failure of short term memory ... and even sudden ... uncontrollable ... lapses into 'DXl ... zz. o

Circus a treat Dale Miiier The Metropolitan

You enter the coliseum and on the floor is a single ring. A band is playing. It's an integral part of the Moscow Circus. Finally, the "Ringmaster," Albert (Alex) Makhtoein, runs to the center of the ring, welcoming you to the Moscow Circus. He announces the first act, the Agaev family on the high wire. Several acrobats wearing bright red and gold enter the ring and climb to the high wire. There is no safety net below, and one fall could mean disaster. They croos once, twice and a third time with another member on their shoulders.

"He~

April 27, 1990

Then they bring a teeterboard up to the aerial platform. Two members jump onto one end of the board sending another acrobat high into the air from the other end. Assiat is vaulted into the air, does a double somersault and lands on Ramis' shoulders while he is balancing on the wire. The next act is "The Fantastic Acrobats." They use teeterboards and launch each other high into the air and land either on the shoulders of another member or into a chair held high in the air. The climax was when a young man strapped himself to a single stilt over six and a half feet in height. He is launched high into the air off the end of a teeterboard. Once airborne, he completes a double somersault and lands balancing on the single stilt. To relax the crowd from all of the suspense, the next act is comical. Russian dancing bears enter the ring with their trainers. They perform simple feats like catching frisbee rings and dancing to music. Between acts, the audience is entertained by two clowns, Alexander Frish and Valery Serebriakov. After the intermission, a group of IO "Flyers" took to the trapeze. The leader, Alexander Hertz, said he believes "the circus should not just make people laugh, it should make them worry a little bit. The main idea is to keep the audience in suspense." There was plenty of suspense. The group

performed a series of combinations that included double, triple and quadruple somersaults. The act culminated in the breathtaking feat known as "The Torch." One aerialist flew 72 feet across the length of the net and was caught on the other side. Never has man come so close to true flight. The final group to perform was "Tamerlan's Djigits," fearless riders who flew around the ring on galloping horses. They were

supreme examples of horsemen. At times, the riders rode on top of the horse, at other times, beneath them. Sometimes, the horse dragged the rider by his feet, close to the ground and jumped through a hoop surrounded by blades of knives. In the end, you leave knowing you witnessed the best performers from the Soviet Union and world-wide. D

Play resembles morality fable Kirt Ace Begler The Metropoltan

The theater department at the University 6 of Colorado at Denver has brought to life the makings of a fairytale - a soldier, a princess and the devil - in Igor Stravinsky's "The Soldier's Tale." Under the direction of Laura Cuetara, ''The Soldier's Tale" incorporates the use of .._ narration, acting, dancing and music to illustrate the desertion of a soldier and the plans of the devil to claim his soul The music for this production is provided by the Chamber Ensemble of Colorado, under the direction of Jan Wagner. According to program notes provided by Cuetara and Wagner, the play was written in Switzerland in 1918 and represents change in Stravinsky's personal life as well as in his compositional output. The program also notes that it is an adaptation of a Russian folktale that Stravinsky and his collaborator, Swiss novelist C.F. Ramuz, found suitable for taking on tour through Western Europe. .,.The story of "The Soldier's Tale" was borrowed from Russian poet Afanasiev. As for the music, the program gives a detailed account of each instrument and its symbolism and representation throughout the play. Stravinsky's employment of instruments resemble those of American jazz bands, particularly those of the late 1910s New Orleans' Dixieland bands.

Because the play is so complex, it is suggested that any theater-goer read the program before the performance. The CU-D theater department managed to portray Stravinsky's piece convincingly allowing the audience's imagination to fill in any missing details. For example, the set includes only table, two chairs, a terraced stage platform and silver metallic streamers attached to the seating. Because of the set's simplicity, the scenes are completed through the use of various props, costume changes and musical, dance and storytelling segments. The cast consists of four actors who portray the narrator, the soldier, the princess and the devil. Terry Burnsed plays the narrator and becomes a main focus of the piece through his roles as a member of the band, narrator and various character voices and portrayals. The voices include the thoughts of the other characters. Tom Hanna does a commendable job in the role of the soldier, before and after having his soul claimed by the devil. His best scenes are those during his struggle to reclaim his soul and trying to awaken the alive-yet-lifeless princess. The two highlights of the evening are in the performances of Debra Fawcett as the devil, and OrejonaAshton's portrayal of the princess.

Sluggers finish tourney at 6-2 i _Chris Caylor The Metropolitan

Metro's baseball team won the informal, round-robin tournament held April 19-22 _jlith a 6-2 record, including five straight victories, boosting their record to 26-15 with 11 games left in the season. Prior to the tournament, ooach Bill Helman said anything less than a 6-2 finish in the tourney would be disappointing. "Maybe I should make predictions more "Often," he said. The Roadrunners won the tourney for the second year in a row, but for only the second time in 12 years of participation. Their victory was costly, however. Sophomore Rob Barringer, the team's leading hitter with ~ 385 average, suffered a dislocated elh9w _ in the April 22 win over- University of ~~nver. andis blcely lost for the remainder of the season. Third baseman Bob Dampier, who had to leave the second game with Regis College ,on April 17 due to back spasms, returned to 'the lineup. Outfielder Ken Sutton, who tied for the team lead in home runs with 10, ran into a fence post during the tourney and bruised his shoulder, but should not miss any upcoming games, Helman said. The 'Runners started on the wrong foot, ~osing to Colorado School of Mines 6-5, but rebounded to beat Regis 7-3, avenging a doubleheader sweep at Regis' hands on April 17. Then they lost to the College of Southwest (New Mexioo) 4-3, in eight innings. In ,.mllege baseball, a single game lasts 9 innings, but when a doubleheader is played, games last only 7 innings each. This loss was the first of two extra inning games the 'Runners played. Metro came back later Friday to beat University of Northern Colorado 5-2. Willy 'Cirbo picked up the win and Donnie Bjorhus earned his fifth save of the season, leaving him just one short of a new school record for saves in a season. "Our pitching staff may be the strongest

and most consistent we have ever had," Helman said. Last Saturday, Metro won the second of its five in a row, over Fort Hays State University (Kansas), 4-2. Later, Mike Nussbaum improved his record to 6-3 with what Helman called a "dominant performance" in an 8-2 victory over Mesa State College. season will have the record. Metro beat DU 11-9, last Sunday in 10 innings. "This was the wildest game of the season," Helman said. Metro led 5-2 in the bottom of the 7th inning, but allowed DU to tie the score. both teams traded runs until the Roadrunners scored four runs in the 10th to

win. They ran their wjnstr@akto five games by New Mexico University 3-0. Scott Novak snapped a personal twogame losing streak and improved his record to 5-2. Both Metro and Mesa finished with 6-2 records, but since Metro had beaten Mesa_ they were awarded the title.

~ _def~Western

Helman said the strength of the piiching has gotten the 'Runners where they are now. "The hitting is down slightly from last year and the fielding hasn't been anything special, but our pitching bas been solid, down to a man," Helman said. He said he thinks Metro will need to continue their win streak if they want to earn a berth in the NCAA regional tournament, which begins May 16. There are eight regions in Division II, from which three teams qualify to form the 24-team NCAA tournament bracket. "I would say we need to go 8-3 in our last 11 games to have any kind of chance," Helman said. "This team never gives up and they always work hard, so I think they can do it." If the Roadrunners win 8 of their final 11 games, they will tie the school record for most wins in a season at 34. They begin their attempt at reaching that goal in Pueblo for three games against New Mexico Highlands University on April 28-29. Then they play DU back-to-back on May 1 and May 4. o
