...

Protesting the administration, the Student Affairs Board and the Met, the Black Student Alliance highlighted their day-long picketing on campus with a noon press conference Tuesday, May I. About 40 alliance members held up signs in front of news cameras as alliance speakers listed their demands and reiterated accusations. Antonio Esquibel, the vice president for Student Affairs, responded to the alliance's accusations, explaining their context. He said he would take the list of 18 demands that the alliance distrubuted at the press conference and deliver it to Metro President Thomas Brewer. Report1!l'S and camera men from the "Rocky Mountain News," "The Denver Post," Channel 7 and Channel 4 attended the press conference at the Student Union Plaza, landing tbe alliance stories in both papers, and a 45-second spot on Channel 7's local news at 5 and 10 p.m. Lisa Calderon, the alliance's president, said that their faculty adviser, Richard Jackson, a criminal justice professor, was being investigated. He would not be subjected to the administration's supposed harrassment if he was not their adviser, she said. Esquibel said that there had been no attempt to fire Jackson. Since he is a full-tenured professor, that would require due-process, he said. Calderon also accused the SAB of being unfair when its members did not approve the full amount of money the alliance members spent on their trip to Ames, Iowa. One of the alliance's demands called for the immediate resignation of Karen Thorpe as the chair ofSAB, even though Thorpe is a non-voting member of the board. The alliance's expenses are more than the funding approved by the SAB, Esquibel said, pointing out that students have the majority vote on the board. As members touted anti-Met signs behind her, Calderon and other members repeated previous accusations that the Met only gives negative coverage. The Met has information on positive events, they said. Alliance members had already set up a series of meetings with the Mel's new editor, Teresa Lenway, Esquibel said. Dave Plank will only be the editor until Friday, May 4. "We do have problems,just like all colleges do," Esquibel said. "We need to do a better job of looking at some of the issues on campus relating to minority students. I think we are moving toward that." Although Esquibel told the alliance members that Brewer was not in his office, they marched across campus. Chanting "What's the word? We want to be beard!" the members marched from the Student Union, past the South Classroom Building, around the Science Building, to approach the Central Classroom from the back. The members stayed at the door of Brewer's third-floor office for a few minutes, raising their voices and their radio before marching back to the Student Union. Although none of the Met's editors were in, the members repeated the demonstration at the newspaper's office. D

New charges against Martin Met Staff

BRIEFS r

J

Womens' Studies Improvement

Metro President Thomas Brewer has decided to establish >- a President's Committee for the Improvement of the Women Students' Environment This committee will be charged with reviewing the climate for female students, identifying the status of female students on campus, .._ and making recommendations on an action plan in both of these areas. This committee will have representatives from each of the women's clubs, the t. Associated Students of Metropolitan State College, as well as faculty and administrators. Each organization will recommend two individuals - a female and a male - to be considered for this committee. All recommendations will be reviewed and committee members selected, so that all major ethnic groups are represented.

Ozone

depletion .. totals Statewide totals of ozone-depleating chemicals released in 路 Colorado during 1988 were made available Friday, April 20, by Colorado Public Interest Research Group as part of Earth Week. The Toxic Release Inventory reveals that 3,490,307 pounds of ozone depleating chemicals were released into Co.._ lorado's air in 1988. These chemical releases are a composite of CFC 113, 1,1,1, trichloroethane, and carbon tetrachloride, all of which are primarily used as solvents. The amount of ozone-depleating chemicals represents nearly one third of the total air toxics in Colorado, according to data released by the Environmental Protection Agency on April 19. The EPA figures show that 11,129,196 pounds of air toxics were released in total. Owne-depleating chemicals accounted for 31 %of all air toxic releases.

Allegations have been made that Metro Student Government President Kelly Martin ignored last year's campaign promises as others picked up the slack. The platform Martin and her vice president, Bill Jennance, ran on included several promises. While some were worked on by other members of student government, others were not. "We didn't do anything," Jermance said. "We went to a lot of parties, met with [MSC President Tom] Brewer a lot, went to a lot of lunches, had our picture ta.ken with [Gov.] Romer and autographed our paycheck. Kelly liked going to parties. All those parties and nothing to wear." Jermance resigned as vice president last month in protest of Martin's plan to resign the presidency at the end of the summer to give the office to her running mate, Dan Holden.

Among the promises were teacher evaluations, campus safety, a newsletter, increased funding for sports and clubs, increased services for non-traditional students and a student government lobbyist. As reported in the Met last spring, Martin said she would start working on publishing teacher evaluations last summer."We do not want to see this issue meet a dead end and vow that we will accomplish this for you, the students of MSC," according to the campaign literature. "We didn't do anything on teacher evaluations," Jermancesaid "That one was dumped on Gerri Madrid." Student Sen. Madrid, the chair of the Senate's Academic Affairs Committee, said Martin's only contribution to teacher evaluation.s was to come to one meeting with Liz Friot, president of the Faculty Senate, last summer. While the Campus Safety Committee has worked toward establishing a Campus Watch to patrol,

Kelly Martin

Sen. Jeremy Stuhl, CSC chair, said, "All Kelly did was sign the Campus Watch bill. I talked to the people at Public Safety to find out what the committee could do (about the break-ins) and this is one of the ideas they came up with." Martin had also said she would look into publishing a newsletter after each senate meeting. The newsletter "would inform you of personal safety on campus, inform you as to the Student A,tfairs Board

and how it is spending your fees and enlighten you as to the affairs affecting your academic endeavors," according to her campaign literature. Although Martin was elected president in April 1989, the first newsletter did not come out until a year later, but it dealt with statements from the committee chairs. Sen. Angie Binder wrote the newsletter herself after Martin said 1111 Martin

M路artin fails in bia to skew editor pick Metro Student Government President Kelly Martin, apparently upset at the news coverage she has received, recently tried to influence the selection of next year's editor of the Met. She sent her vice president-elect, Dan Holden, to the Board of Publications meeting Thursday, April 26, with a note "appointing Dan R Holden on a pro tem basis to serve ASMSC with full voting privileges... Since it was a special meeting called to choose the editor, and becausehe had not been ratified by the board, Holden was asked to leave. He did so after arguing that the Met never printed a retraction about his alleged racist oomments during last spring's elections. StudentSen. Rhonda Thilmoney, who is the student government representative on the board, subsequently wrote a memo to the senate denouncing Martin's aciom. "Kelly Martin went over my head as the appointed member of

the board and attempted to appoin

Dan Holden without my lmowl or coment to suit her own agenda," according to Thilmoney's memo. The week before, Martin's chie of staff, A. Scott Gassmann, had called the chair of the board, journalism faculty member Deb Hurley, to ask who the student govemmen representative was. But ThilmonC' said that nobody had con.tacted he about the meeting. "Kelly Martin did state that since Ms. Anderson bad writt several damaging articles abo her, if anyone represented MS (on the board), that it would her [Martin}," according to a si statement by a senator. Anderso ~ the news editor at the Met. "I have been misquoted, mis represented or not even question on mattersconceming what studen government has done more th 16 times. Thank God Mary Anderson will not be the editor nex year," Martin said in a letter to th Met the day after the new editor, Teresa Lenway, was selected.

Measles outbreak hits campus Lyn Wazny The Metropolitan

Two students on the Auraria Campus have been exposed to the highly contagious rubeola measles virus, according to Student Health Clinic Director Ron Veatch. He said they had been in contact with students from the School of Mines in Golden, which had a measles outbreak at the beginning of April. Both students have been notified by the State Health Department and advised to be vaccinated if they weren't already, Veatch said. "We are giving the vaccine to anyone who comes in at this point," said clinic physician Greg Gutierrez. But, if there was a rush or outbreak on campus, Gutierrez said it would be a disaster. The clinic does not have large enough doses of vaccine on hand, he said. There has been an outbreak of the virus along the northern Front

Range, especially at the School of Mines, Colorado State University in Fort Collins and Smoky Hill High School in Aurora. There have been 73 cases confirmed statewide as of April 26, said Tim Englert, Colorado's senior disease control specialist. "We expect it will continue to grow for another three to four weeks," he said. "It is an airborne virus, making it easily communicable," Veatch said. "But since we don't have dorms on our campus, we don't have that kind of closeness." If there was an outbreak, Veatch said the State Health Department could choose a quarantine or close down the campus. "A couple of hundred people have died from it across the country," Veatch said "It's not lethal usually, but it is serious, and it's preventable." Health officials say that the vaccine administered in the early 1960s and 1970s to children younger

than 15 months old was only 80 percent effective. That means 20 of every 100 people in that age group th~t were vaccinated as children may be vunerable to measles, according to a "Rocky Mountain News" article printed April 19. People born before 1957 don't have to worry, Veatch said. That vaccine has proven to be effective. Rubeola is a much more serious measles virus than rubella, or the three-day measles, Gutierrez said. It incubates for 10 days after the initial contact. The first symptoms can include fever, malaise, headache and muscle pain.s. Two to three days later, cold symptoms such as a runny nose, fever, sore throat, cough and hoarseness may set in. Gutierrez said conjunctivitis or red eyes and photophobia (eyes hurt when exposed to light) may also occur. In the second week, flat reddish spots or a rash appear, beginning on the

scalp and moving down the body. The virus can grow into pneumonia, encephalitis (fluid around the brain) and bleeding disorders, Gutierrez said. These can be fatal. Gutierrez said the most vulnerable people have what is called suppressed immune systems. This can include people with AIDS, the elderly and those who are dependent on drugs or chemicals. The problem on campus, Gutierrez said, "is that we can't show who has been immunized. We should start finding out with each freshman class coming in." Veatch said that the State Health Department would like to instigate a mandatory immunization policy for all schools. He admitted that it would be difficult. "But it would be great to at least be able to identify who's immunized quickly," he said. Veatch promised to keep the campus community informed if anything new develops. o

but just 6 percent of non-minorities disagreed.

The Metropolitan

Only 23.5 percent of the Metro staff returned a questionnaire designed to determine minority and non-minority attitudes and perceptions. The results were made public Friday, April 27, at a meeting of the President's Committee on the Status of Minorities. The survey also showed that Metro has 131 employees classified as administration. Of these, 57 returned a questionnaire. The Metro full-time faculty of 362 persons returned 102 questionnaires. The survey asked 68 questions to which respondents were to show their agreement or disagreement. The 302 returns were divided based on the minority or nonminority status of the respondents. Both minority and non-minority responses were similar to many questions, including one which stated "Considering everything, it really pays to work hard around here." Some 50 percent of minorities and 40 percent of non-minorities disagreed with that statement. Statements which focused on minority concerns showed more disparity between the minority and non-minority responses. A statement that "minorities are given the encouragement and opportunities to advance as far as their skills and abilities will take them" brought disagreement from 59 percent of the minority respondents but just 19 percent of the non-minority respondents. Some 75 percent of non-minorities, but just 37 percent of minorities, agreed with the statement that "in general, minorities are treated with dignity and respect." Some 32 percent of minority respondents disagreed,

A peer counseling center where Metro students can go to get help from fellow students, faculty and staff is coming this fall Students will feel more comfortable talking to other studentsand members of the faculty and staff, said Bobbi v ollmer, associat.e director of the MSC Counseling Center. "They will be making contact with friends, .. she said. The center is part of the National Helper program. The program bas been tried in other parts of the country, but not in a residential school similar to MSC, Voimer said. The National Helper counselors are nominated by Metro students. "By having all the counselors for the center nominated, we hope to get a diverse group with many different backgroun~," Vollmer said. Nominees will be invited to a fall retreat if they are interested in being involved with the center. The retreat will focus on communication and will address such issues as listening and helping skills, dealing with crises and dealing with addictions. "We took surveys on student concerns as well, and found that addictions are a main concern to students," Vollmer said. There will be informal follow-up meetings with the counselors throughout the year, Vollmer said For more information, contact the MSC o Counseling Center at 556-3132.

she would like somebody to work on it at the April 4 senate meeting. Martin did not follow up on giving the student president's monthly reports. She said in the Met last year that she wanted to either write her report in letter-to-the-editor format or simply get up in public. She had suggested setting up a podium outside the Student Union or on the mezzanine to deliver her report and answer questions. She gave one report in public on the mezzanine in the fall. Nobody attended. She did not give another public report.

She wrote two editorials, although one of them accused the senators of not doing their job and was a defense of the vote of no confidence some senators had proposed. Sen. Michael Green, former chair of the Club Funding Committee, said he would not talk to the press about clubs' funding. No effort was made to look into increased services for non-traditional students, Jermance said. "We just said that to win. We wanted to cover all the student groups," he said. Martin also claimed in this year's elections that she would "Encourage longer business hours for night students."

However, Martin did accomplish getting student government a lobbyist on Capitol Hill. Although the original funding request, written by Sen. Michael Green, was denied by the Student Affairs Board, Martin created a volunteer position which former Chief Justice C. Mason Golden filled.

cilities, and hours of child care facilities. But Martin is expected to resign in order to go to graduate school in the fall. According to Jennance, she was accepted before the recent elections. "It's common knowledge that she got into CU-Denver," he said.

But Golden also resigned in protest of Martin's plan to give the presidency to Holden.

J ermance said he supports the platform of ._ former Sen. Dave Chandler and his running mate, Jeff Albright, planned to abolish student government and replace it with a nine-member Student Board. Although they did not actively campaign, they received 100 votes, more than some other candidates who did campaign. D

Senate impeaches Martin Met Staff The Metropolitan

The student senate voted Wednesday, May 2, to impeach president Kelly Martin on two separate charges and approved a resolution condemning her actions in the recent elections, which she won. Only one senator, Jeremy Stuhl, voted against the impeachments and the resolution. The Judicial Board will now hear the charges against her and determine if she should remain in office. The first charge, brought forth by Sen. Joe Navarro, accused Martin of fraudulent misrepresentation in last month's elections.

CID[p)Il®§ ®§

Several senators and former student government members said that Martin told them that she planned to resign the presidency to give the office to her running mate, now the vice president-elect, Dan Holden. Martin is expected to resign by the end of the summer. She has been accepted to graduate school, according to her former vice president, Bill Jermance. Jermance resigned in protest of her plans to give the presidency to Holden. The second charge, brought forth by Sens. Rhonda Thilmony and Gerri Madrid, accused Martin of misuse of the powers of the executive branch when she tried to influence the selection ofnext year's editor of the Met.

Martin had sent Holden to the Board of Publications meeting, April 26, with a note appointing him to the board with full voting privileges, even though Thilmony was already a voting member of the board. To affirm its condemnation of Martin's actions while running in the elections, the senate passed a resolution with only one member dissenting. The resolution stated that Martin's actions, "while not illegal, are clearly outside the ethical practice of a representative of the Student Body of MSCD who has been charged with the public's trust." The resolution called for a new election to be held for the positions of president and vice president, and asked that no other groups on or off campus recognize the election's validity. o

•c METROPOLITAN Buying A Used Car? THE

BSA brings protest to~·... Met newspaper office

DID YOU KNOW •That your car must pass the State Emission Test before you can register it? •That visible emission (smoke) will cause your car to fail the emission test? •That your car must have all emissions equipment that it was manufactured with, intact and operational?

About 30 protesters filled the hallway outside of the Met office shouting, "The Met's not right" and calling for editor Dave Plank to come out After hitting the windows of the office with the sticks of their picket signs and disrupting a production meeting acr~ the hall, the protesters left when they thought a staff member was calling Auraria Public Safety. None of the editors were in the office at the time. A reporterheardtheprotesterssay, "Public Safety's coming," as she walked down the back staircase to the Met's office as they were leaving. Sean Schott, an advertising designer for the Met, said he heard a lot of voices coming down the hall and closed the door because a staff meeting was in progress. "One guy says 'Hey, man, you don't have to close your door,' " Schott said. "And when they started to disperse, a student said, 'You gotta walk the plank, baby.'" The Met staff filed a complaint with Auraria Public Safety. At the news conference at noon, Black Student Alliance President Lisa Calderon circulated three demands the alliance wants from the Met

• An immediate retraction or clarification of all facts distorted and misconstrued concerning BSA funding; • Implementation ofa weekly "student of color" column with contributing writers of color; • Creation of a Student Review Board which examines the impartiality of the paper and to ensure the equal distribution of issue content However, the director of Equal Opportunity and assistant to the president, Percy Morehouse, said, "Based on the SAB minutes and the proposal submitted by the Black Student Alliance, I could not see where [the Mets] article was untrue." And in a previous Met article, editor Dave Plank said he would not give the alliance a column because if he did, every other student group would want one as well. He said the Political Science Club at MSC asked him for a column in February and that he had told them no. Currently, complaints against the Met are under review by the Board of Publications. The board will consider any proposal the alliance brings to them about the creation of a Student Review Board, said chair Deb Hurley. "They have yet to approach the board," she said. o

LETTERS Fit To Be Tied By John C. Roper You know, I've got germs on my toilet that are so advanced I let them do my income taxes this year. After the IRS informed me of an upcoming audit (they tried to deduct an out-of-body experience as a travel expense}, I pulled out my industrial-strength Dow Tub and Tile Cleaner with the Scrubbing Bubbles to cut short their accounting careers. But before I sent them to that great petrie dish in the sky, it donned on me - these guys should run for student government! " Hey," they said. "That's for single-celled animals!" I then explained to them that, if they held the office of president, they could give themselves a raise just like our current President In Vain Kelly "Pottymouth" Martin. And then , after doing nothing for an entire year, they could humiliate the entire student body and celebrate it by throwing a banquet at the Brown Palace in their honor using around $3,000 generated via the students through various loopholes and tactics that OPEC would admire. "Hey, we can do all that?" they asked. Sure, and a whole lot more! "What about racist comments? Can we make those?" Well , it's never been a problem for the Martin administration, but I don't think that ... "Can we kowtow to the college administrators and ignore the students' needs?" That's certainly been done a lot in the past, but in order to properly represent the students' best interest you should ... "What about misusing student fees for things like bringing a 'significant other' on a retreat to a winter haven?" I don't think that's too cool. I remember that happening under the Martin administration and a reporter from the Met was bounced from the trip due to somene else's, um, bouncing. Perhaps the most democratic way of handling it would be to ... PSSSSSSssssss ..... Bubblebubblebubblebubble ... " AAAAHHHHHhhhhh!!!!!!" This Saturday, our student representatives have planned a sort of soiree to pat themselves on the back for the ALLEDGEDLY superior job they've done as our elected officials. I can see it now, those kooky characters such as A. Scott Gassmann (versus THE Scott Gassmann?) and the rest of the cast of Kell{s Heroes will be toasting the town under the facade that they actually accomplished some good and represented the students in a mature and responsible manner. Please. There's nothing wrong with the idea of having a banquet. In fact, I'm sure that some of the members of the student government sincerely deserve one. These few were probably so frustrated with the calamitous activities of their co-representatives that they now, most iikely, suffer from bleeding ulcers and severe hair loss and could use a little recognition. The total cost to each student for this affair is only about 19 cents which covers dinner, various awards, a discjockey and miscellaneous expenses. Not a whole lot of money to worry about, is it? Yet, I'd rather see that $3,000 be donated to a scholarship fund or use it as part of an ongoing minority recruitment campaign. The other day, I called ASMSC Student President Kelly Martin to ask her some questions about the banquet. "I hate your articles, pal!" she said. She then went on to explain to me that when she called someone an a--hole and told them to f---off (the topic of one of my columns}, that it was done in a private meeting. (Ahem, in front of a reporter} . "You would 've said it too if you could've heard what he said to me!" PSSSSSsssss ..... Bubblebubblebubblebubble ... AHHHHHhhhhh!!!!!! .....

Memorial excludes others Editor, As I read the article, "Vets' memorial debated" I thought to myself the money situation is not the problem. It's the fact that this memorial is going to be dedicated only to veteran's. I'm not trying to undermine what individuals did because they thought it was right for their country, against its people and its government. I think, along with veterans, the people that have been oppressed, but fought and died for freedom , should also be honored. What about the women's movement? The government did not give women the right to vote, they had to fight for it. They were imprisoned, tortured and died for their

right to be equal in this country. Or what about the civil rights movement? Equality is our right, but again, it had to be fought for. The native Americans still fight for the right to their home, culture and traditions. They struggle along with other minorities and women for the right to be treated as equals by the government and the society in which we live. Auraria Campus does have a lot of veterans, but it also has a lot of women and minorities that should be treated with the same respect and given the same honor.

- Elizabeth Hauptman Metro Student

Secretaries deserve respect Editor, I, and I'm sure many other secretaries in the college, take exception to the comment attributed to a David Voth that he "questioned the reasoning behind a secretary having master keys." Secretaries have master keys because of: forgetful professors who leave their keys at home, the necessity of locking up exams in professors' offices for security reasons, getting into professors' offices because they are at home and they can't remember if they have appointments to keep, they are going to be late for their office hours and would we please provide a book, paper, etc., to a student/faculty member who is coming in, and for numerous other reasons. I have a master key for the above reasons as well as the fact that secretaries are not provided a secure area, as are professors. I lock my purse and coat in a faculty office when I have to go on errands or to the duplicating room - if I didn't have a master key, I couldn't even duplicate the work that has been given to me.

Obviously, professor Voth doesn't realize what secretaries have to do to perform their job - most of us facilitate the overall functioning of our departments/offices and we need access to a variety of locations. I wonder what it would add to AHEC's work load if our keys were taken away and AHEC was suddenly inundated with numerous calls to open doors and offices? The way the article is written , the comment attributed to professor Voth seems to indicate that he thinks secretaries are part of the problem in terms of equipment thefts - if that's what he meant, then he owes a lot of hard-working, conscientious secretaries an apology. I imagine his departmental secretary makes life much easier for him in a variety of ways that he isn't perceptive enough to even be aware of and I seriously doubt if she, or any other secretary, ripped off the Science Building. The majority of secretaries may not have Ph.D.s, how ever, we do have integrity and morals.

Green responds to charges Editor,

~.

~

During a CFC meeting held on April 2, I called an executive session at the request of the Mile High Rangers, due to the fact that Mary Anderson , a so called reporter and editor of The Metropolitan had consistently misquoted members of the Mile High Rangers and the ROTC. Even before going into executive session , Ms. Anderson had to be warned on several occasions that as she could not keep her big mouth shut, she would be asked to leave the meeting. But apparently Ms. Anderson considers herself above the law; for not only did she continue to disrupt the meeting, but refused to leave when executive session was called, thereby showing, once again, her total disregard for any authority. I state now, and for the record, that there was intention of misleading the students during this executive session because there was a tape recorder running during the entire meeting, another little fact that Ms. Anderson failed to let the readers know about.

At the time that the executive session was called , I was so sure that I acted within the boundaries of the law that I stated publicly that, if I were found to be in error, I would , in fact, step down as chair of the CFC. Ms. Anderson could not wait for a trial and wrote an article in the April 6 issue of the Met stating quite clearly that I held an ILLEGAL secret session. There is no such thing as a secret session, and this case HAD NOT even gone to the judicial board for a hearing. But the Met had already convicted me. I always thought that a person was innocent until proven guilty. Upon talking to my counsel, I was then informed that I violated the Sunshine Law when I failed to get the required 2/3 vote necessary to go into executive session. The reason I did not ask for a vote is because I honestly thought that, since the Mile High Rangers asked to go into executive session, a vote was needed. As members of all clubs know that have asked for funding through CFC this year, I have worked consistantly for the benefit of the students and the clubs. It is true that I did plead guilty in the judicial hearing on the charges brought against me by Mary Anderson,

in regards to the CFC meeting, but the reason the judicial board did not act against me is because Ms. Anderson failed to supply the board with a remedy. In this case, even though I was guilty, the board could not act, and as Chief Justice Yon read the decision of the court, Ms. Anderson showed her lack of respect to the court by telling them what they could and could not do. I admit my mistake, and because of it, I voluntarily stepped down from my chair in keeping true to my word. However, you still have a reporter whose actions are so deplorable that she could not even get a job on a rank and gossip paper like the Enquirer. It is apparent that Ms. Anderson does not yet have an ethical code and that she believes that, just because she works for a paper, it can protect her from the trash that spews from her mouth and pen. All I can say is that I feel sorry for the next person on Ms. Anderson's hit parade. The way she twists her stories, she should write fiction, being that's what she's good at.

METROPOLITAN

Novels no mystery

to prof Chris Caylor The Metropolitan

This is the city. Rex Burns teaches here; he writes here. Not only does he teach English at the University of Colorado at Denver, but he writes crime/history novels about characters based in the Mile High City. If this is news to you, you're not alone. Few people, including most local bookstores, seem to know about Burns or his nine published novels. But the lack of recognition doesn't seem to bother him much. "It would be nice to be known, i.e., to be selling best sellers and all that," Burns said, "but you write what you know." Burns writes police procedural novels featuring Hispanic Denver detective Gabriel Wager. The first Wager novel, "The Alvarez

May4, 1990

Journal," won an Edgar award from the Mystery Writers Guild as Best First Mystery of 1975. Burns said the award was a surprise, especially since it was his first attempt at writing a mystery novel.

"I didn't know a thing about mysteries at the time," Burns said, "so I wrote one and, in my ignorance and freshness, it came out good" Bums, 54, was born in San Diego and earned a bachelor's degree in English at Stanford University. He earned his master's in English and his Ph.D. in American Studies from the University of Minnesota. He came to CU-Denver in 1968 and has been there ever since.

'It would be nice to be known ... selling best sellers and all that, but you write what you know.• During the fall and spring, Burns teaches a variety of courses, including critica1 writing, American literature, introduction to fiction, American drama, plus graduate courses, forming a full load of classes. Burns said finding time to do everything is a challenge. "My pace is frenetic enough that it's hard to find time," he said. "But my writing contributes to my understanding of the literature and, of course, the literature helps me understand the writing. It's just a conflict of time." When Burns started focusing his attention see Burns pg. 13

on police procedures, the Miranda decision had just begun making an impact on the American judicial system. Burns was intrigued, and spent a year, off and on, researching police precedures and methods of investigation. The research is something Bums must do, even today, to keep up with procedural changes. Another Wager noveL "The Avenging Angel," has been made into a movie, "Messenger of Death," starring Charles Bronson. Burns said he was not particularly pleased with the screen adaptation. "I took the money and ran," he said, laughing. "That's a terrible movie. The whole vehicle was weak, once they got away from the novel. Some people have said they liked it, but I don't know what the hell they found to like about it." Another thing that Burns said hurt the movie was the fact that the main character was a reporter, not a detective as Wager is. In order for the movie to use Wager, Burns said he would have had to sell the rights to Wager to the movie studio. If he had done that, he would not have been able to write another Gabe Wager mystery because the studio would own the character's rights. They could conceivably create another Wager story without Bums, and he said he didn't want that to happen. When asked ifhe would allow another of his books to be made into a movie, Burns replied, "Sure, I need the money." He has also created two other characters, one of whom has appeared in a published novel. The noveL "Suicide Season," featuring fictitious Denver private eye Devlin Kirk, appeared in bookstores in 1987. This novel's final chapter will shock readers more than

anything Stephen King could ever create. The second Kirk noveL "Parts Unknown," will be published in October and Burns has a third, "Body Guard," already written. Bums' newest character, Jack SteeL was named after a math teacher Burns had in Chicago. Steel, like Kirk, is a private eye, but seems, at first glance, to be more sophisticated than either Wager or Kirk. Burns is planning to finish that story during his self-proclaimed "writing time" this summer. One other note about Steel: his stories will be based in Southern California, the first series Burns has set outside of Colorado. When that story is done, Bums said he will tum his attention to the next Gabe Wager mystery. In addition to teaching and writing, Bums also reviews crime/ mystery book for the "Rocky Mountain News" in a monthly column appearing on Sundays. He said he enjoys reading, but it puts further constraints on his already limited time. "I look at 10 to 15 books a month, and sometimes it can get awfully tedious," Burns said. Reviewing other authors' work helps him to keep up with the market. "Usually, when I look at those books, I get an idea of what to avoid: things that have been done better than I can do them, or things that are cliche and trite, or done badly," he said · The most vital thing Bums said any writer needs is a job other than writing. When Burns writes his stories, he doesn't try to mold his characters into an image of himself. He said he recogniz.ed that they each have their own personalities and lives. "I am not they, but if I were in their place, here is what I might say and do," Burns said. "It's more realistic that way." o

Early Childhood Education Preschool Program Child Development Center

• close• •Convenient• •Caring• •Competitive• The Metropolitan State College Child Development Center, located on campus near the 9th Street Parkway, is here for you and your family. The center provides two programs for your child: Our Early Childhood Education Preschool Program concentrates on appropriate learning experiences, outdoor activities, and individual attention for children ages 2 1/2 to 6 years. It is held fall and spring semesters.

Former MSC instructor Brenda Watson had, according to those who knew her, a reverence for all living things. Acknowledging and saluting that reverence, more than 150 students, former students, faculty and friends gathered at the north end of the Arts Building Thursday, April 26, to plant an oak tree in her memory. Watson, a 10 year part-time instructor in the human services department, died of complications resulting from a brain tumor Nov. 9, 1989. She was 40 years old. Watson's essence lives on in the contributions she made to her community and to the field of human services. Her students say that, because she taught them how to live in harmony with the world, her lessons will endure. "She wasn't just my teacher," said MSC student Doris Lang, "I considered her my mentor. She taught me lessons about life I didn't know could be learned." Thursday's tree-planting ceremony was not funereal, instead it celebrated Watson's life and her belief in the connection of all living things. "We planned it in conjunction with Earth Day because she was a true environmentalist," said MSC professor Jeff Haber. "She believed we are all connencted by the Earth. As a symbol of that connection, we decided to plant a tree." There was another tree at Thursday's commemoration, a brown felt tree on a

small banner. The tree symboliz.ed Watson as the teacher. The audience was asked to hang green felt leaves, each with a note about a lesson she had taught them, on the tree. Before the event was over, the tree was covered with leaves. The event organizers named it "The Leaming Tree." The banner will hang at The Colorado Dance Center. Six ballet students from the center performed a ribbon dance to the music of one of Watson's favorite songs, "Morning Has Broken." The dancers were five and six years old. Watson's sister, Brenda Berman, is their teacher. Because Watson taught her students that all people are connected, representatives of diverse cultures were asked to play a role in the ceremony. Edwardo Zuniga, a Mascarro Apache, read a translation of words the Medicine Man spoke to the White Painted Woman who is the Apache symbol ofthe environment we are trusted to care for. Ramon DelCastillo read an original poem that compared Watson to a tree of learning. MSC student Suzie Trim performed a song she had written for Watson, as did Lahnette Pinkerton, whose daughter danced with Berman's troupe. At the close of the celebration, the attendees held hands as they sang "The Sufi Song," adapted from an Eastern school of philosophy. "Dear friend," they sang,"let me tell you how I feel. You have given me such treasure. D I love you so."

Church adds flavor to Au raria landscape Andy Glaess The Metropolitan

Although it is easily the most colorful ~- building on a unique campus, St. Cajetan's - often remains a mystery to students who have never entered its doors. Built in 1926 on property owned by John K. Mullen, an Irish immigrant turned Denver millionaire, the former Roman Catholic Church was the city's first parish for the .. Spatmb-speaking community. Sensing the need for such a church, Mullen provided the land to the parish with the condition that the prospective congregation would raise $5,000 as a show of faith. As the goal neared, however, the bank .. which handled the parish's account folded. Mullen turned over the land anyway and continued to pour cash into the project while overseeing the construction. Built of brick and covered with stucco in a two-tone color combination of chrome yellow and gray, following a Spanish architectural style, the total cost of the church and its interior furnishings was $88,000. Thousands of dollars were cut from the construction costs, according to "The Denver Post" reports at the time, by the efforts of parishoners who did the excavation, mixed • and poured the cement and handcrafted the pews, conf~ionals and alters. The cornerstone was laid in 1925 and was inscn'bed with both "St. Cajetan's" and ''Iglesia de San Cayetano,"' a 16th century Italian who founded the Tbeatine Order, .. which is dedicated to serving the poor. The order was introduced into Colorado

in 1910, when a group of Italian priests established a church in Durango. Within a few years, more Tbeatines bad arrived in the state from Spain. At the time, Colorado was the only state where the order existed. When St Cajetan's was completed, more than 1,200 people in the Denver area made it their spiritual home. The church was named a city landmark in 1970 by the Denver Landmark Preservation Commission at the same time as its neighbor, the Tivoli Brewery. The property was sold, however, in 1973 to the .Denver Urban Renewal Authority. The church's congregation moved to a new church, with the same name, on West Alameda Avenue. Plans were made in the early 1970s to demolish the original church building to make way for the Auraria Higher Education Center. In 1977, the building was given a new lease on life when then Governor Richard Lamm arranged for the use of federal funds to renovate the church. This proved a great boon to Auraria administrators who bad no money budgeted for an auditorium when the campus was built. A wooden stage was constructed where the altar once stood, stage lighting was installed and the pews were replaced with folding chairs. When the work was completed in 1978, a meeting hall seating 450 to 600 people was available for campus and local area use. In the years since its renovation, the church bas hosted concerts, meetings and conventions, providing an essential service to the Auraria Campus. D

The MSC debate team took third place out of approximately 70 teams in this year's Novice Creda National Debate Tournament held March 16 through 18. It was the team's first year in the competition. Cornell University, University of Arizona and University of Vermont were among the teams that lost to the MSC debate team, said Susan Epstein, the debate team's coach and part-time faculty member for the speech department. "William and Mary (College) eliminated our team from competition," she said. "We were competing against much better-known schools than Metro State College," Epstein said.

Lawrence Pryor, of the MSC Debate Team, at the Irish Debates.

-

The debate team members were Jeff Howard and M.J . Coots. Their resolution was that the trend toward increasing foreign investment is detrimental to the United States. There are three divisions for debate teams - novice, junior and open. Division is determined by how long the team has been competing together, said Jeff Howard, a debate team member. The novice division is for teams in their first year. Novice teams can compete against any other school also in that division. Competition for the team lasts from September to mid-April. Within that time, the team does a lot of traveling, mostly on weekends.

~

"We've traveled all over," Howard said. "We've been to places like California, Wyoming, Utah and Missouri. "Being involved with the team was a great experience. I expected it to be more difficult than it was." The debate team is not the only activity the speech department has to offer. Other competitions are held in public speaking and oral interpretation. For the national competition in oral interpretation, Lawrence Pryor placed seventh for his poetry interpretation. "We would like to get more people involved with the speech department's activities," Epstein said. "Any undergraduate student is qualified to be involved. No experience in debate, or any of the other areas is required." If you would like to get involved or would like more information, call Susan Epstein at
