A diamond in the rough •.

Diamonds can be a boy's bestfriend too, especially when they are surrounded by an outfield. At the first signs of spring, Mile High Stadium gets Its annual make-over in preparation for exhibition baseball and Zephyrs games. The East Stands will be moved out to create the larger outfield necessary for baseball, particularily since balls travel approximately 10 percent farther at Denver's altitude than at sea level. Parts of the stadium are getting new seats and Todd Lewis, a Denver painter, applies a fresh coat of paint to the stairs.

An administrative shake-up is in the works at Metropolitan State College of Denver. Karen Thorpe, MSCD's assistant vice president of Student Affairs and dean of Student Life, has taken over the duties of Antonio Esquibel, whose position as vice president ofStudent Affairs was eliminated Feb. 1. Thorpe said that her job title has not changed but, along with the increased responsibilities, she received benefits and a pay raise. Other administrative staff positions may fall under the bureaucratic ax in the next few months. Thorpe said that Gwen Thomas may lose her job as assistant vice president of Student Affairs June 30. David Williams, senior vice president of Academic and Student Affairs has attempted to smooth the transition. " Dr. Williams met with me and explained to me that he wanted me to teach English," Thomas said. "I would rather h ave continued being an assistant vice president of Student Affairs." Thomas said that the changes came as a surprise to her. "I assume that it (my position) is eliminated. I guess that's what it's all about. I hadn' t thought about changing. "I think she (Thorpe) knew from the beginning that I was slated to go back to English," Thomas said. "I know that she knew. She didn' t assign me any new responsibilities to help her with her new assignment." Thorpe said that the changes in the MSCD administrative structure will improve the school's efficiency. Thomas said that she will become a full-time MSCD English teacher if her current job is eliminated. "I look foiward to teaching and getting some writing done," she said. Another MSCD staff member, David Moore, said that he may lose his job as director of MSCD 's Freshman Year Program. Moore said that his program may be placed under control ofthe school of Letters Arts and Sciences June 30, thus eliminating Moore's post. He said that he has no plans to seek another job at MSCD if his D current position is eliminated.

Trolley r idership has dropped 32 percent since RTD extended its 0 and 15 routes to Larimer Street, a duplication of the mall shuttle service. Gene Condon, general manager of the Tivoli, said, "Now that RTD is providing convenient bus service to the Tivoli and Auraria, our trolley is no longer necessary. Customers have found it much easier to use the RTD with its frequent service from the downtown area."

Colorado Public Interest Research Group will hold aBike Day.March 14between lOa.m. and 2 p.m. on the plaza in front of the Student Union. Local bicycle will participate by giving free tune-ups and information on buying bicycles and gear. This event was planned by CoPIRG's Energy Efficiency project group as a way to promote the idea of using alternative modes of transportation. "One of the main reasons for Denver's brown cloud and the nation's dependence on foreign oil is that we are a one person to one car society. H everybody rode a bike more, we would have cleaner air and a healthier soc iety," Craig Be njamin, CoPIRG state representative said. For more infonnation, contact CoPIRG in Student Union Room 153 A.

Mark Corrigan The Metropolitan The 9 HealthFair is back. The annual event will return to the Auraria Student Union in April. The fair will include free blood pressure checks, vision screening, a body-fat analysis, a bio-feedback display and a variety of free health screening and educational exhibits. " Everything at 9 HealthFair, including summary referral, is free," said Vicki Godby, director of the fair. 'The only charges are

for the blood chemistry work-up, which is $20. That covers the lab fee on the blood chemistry. "People need to fast for 12 hours before the blood test. You may have black coffee or tea but no cream or sugar. If this (test) were done at in a private health care center it could cost up to $100." Godby said that the blood screenings can. be used to gauge the participant' s chance of contracting heart disease. ''The clinic will stress the .importance of health and nutritional education," Godby said. "9 HealthFairmakesiteasyforpeople

"We also follow up on any health (results) that are out of normal. Wedon'tjustdroppeople, we follow up. This year we followed up on close to 20,000 people." Billi Mavromatis, staff assistant at the Metropolitan State College of Denver Student Health Center, said that the fair will also include educational acupuncture and chiropractic exhibits. "We do a nutrition table to talk

about how to pack a healthy lunch, how to do fat budgeting and those types of things," Mavromatis said. "It' s just basic good nutrition that's geared to the students." Mavromatis said that Health Center will also offer support classes at the fair for people who have stopped smoking.

Atty. general warns about war-related scams Jim Langland The Metropolitan Be careful. A consumer warning has been issued by Colorado Attorney General Gale Norton concerning the possibility of "war-related scams." Although no reports of have been given to Norton's office, the National Association of Attorney Generals notified Norton that investigations have been launched in other states.

Richard Kaufman, deputy attorney general, said that the people who run these scams "prey in areas where there is a heavy military population." Norton said,"there are many reputable organizations and businesses, consumers should give to the organizations they know or thoroughly research new ones by contacting their local Better ~usi­ ness Bureau." She gave examples of possible scams. Some groups that use 1-900 telephone numbers or charge a fee

to send care packages to U.S. troops never send the packages. Consumers should call their local telephone company to complain about a 1-900 call they suspect is part of a scam. Organizations that collect money to aid refugees and children should be checked making sure the majority of the money goes to the needy. Consumers should also avoid being pressured into immediate payment. Some fraudulent fund raisers use names that sound like well-

known charities and then keep the donations. Established organizations such as Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, or the American Legion can prov ide consumer information. H you feel you have encountered a fraudulent organization, the attorney general's office asks that you submit in writing your complaint along with supporting information to your local district attorney, or contact Norton at (303) 620-4560. 0

Computer purchase alleviates transfer backlog Shawn Christopher Cox The Metropolitan Metropolitan State College of Denver is currently in violation of a 1989 mandate by the Colorado Commission of Higher Education to complete transfer credit evaluations within the first month a student is on campus. This time limit is part of the State Transfer Policy. The policy states, "Each fouryear institution will require that departmental evaluations be completed within the first month of a transfer student's arrival on campus, or within the first month after the student's transfer file is complete." To abide by this policy in the future, MSCD has installed a new computer system which will start being used this month. Jeff Johnson, assistant dean of Admissions and Records, said, " planning and developing began three years ago," for this computer system. Charlotte Murphy, associate vice president ofAcademic Affairs

and coordinator of the transfer evaluation project, said that they started working on the project two years ago and defined the components as mandated by CCHE a year ago. "I'm real satisfied with how it's come together," Murphy said, referring to the complexity of the project and having about 25 people working on it. Leon Daniel, associate vice president of Information Technology, said that the computer system will be ready to go by mid-March. SteveFranzkowiak, managerof the computer application systems of Information Technology, said that they have been entering data since January into the computer to build the data base. "We have evaluated six community colleges and all under-division courses at four-year colleges in the state," said Linda Holland, transfer articulation coordinator. Johnson said that transcripts are now evaluated on a case-by-case basis, meaning that evaluators currently just enter information into the computer for each student. However, the computer does not

retain how a particular course was evaluated without going into a particular student's record. Evaluators then may not recall how they evaluated a certain course and would have to manually go through the process again for each time that course appears. With the current system, Daniel said a lot of information gets lost. However, the new computer system will automatically be able to evaluate credits from any community college and all under-division courses at four-year colleges, once an equivalency is established. An equivalency is the number of credits a student will receive at MSCD for courses taken at other colleges. Johnson said that the goal for the next several of months is to reduce the transfer credit backlog of 16 to 20 weeks. Holland said that, in six months, their goal is to be able to evaluate a student 's transfer credits within a 30-day period once a student completes all preliminary work. Daniel and Franzk:owiak warn that the computer should not be

blamed for the present problems afflicting the evaluation of transfer credits. Daniel said that it takes time to develop computer programs and that it is a major mistake to set a deadline first. Franzkowiak said that his department is a service department and is, "responsive to the needs of the institution." He said they are doing a very good job and are as quick and responsive as they can be. The Transfer Evaluation Project is only part of the computer system that will be implemented within the next few years. Murphy said that the whole computer system will be a complete academic monitoring system. Along with the transfer evaluation project, a progress report system should be implemented by September, Murphy said. Students will then be able to obtain a print out of where they stand academically atMSCD fro m the department of their major. Graduation agreements and a new registering system will also be added to the system in the ~tureO.

Camila Alire, the new director of the Auraria Library.

Auraria Library has booked new director Allen Laychak The Metropolitan After a national search for a dean/director of the Auraria Library, the University of Colorado at Denver found their ideal candidate already working there. Camila Alire, Ph.D., was named dean/ director of Auraria Library after a search that began last summer. She has been working at Auraria Library since 1989 and her previous position was assistant director for library services. Alire was originally on the committee that was selecting and screening candidates when her name kept coming up as a candidate, according to CU-D professor Jim Smith who was chair of the committee. The committee networked with various library organizations to find candidates and Alire's name came up four or five times, more than anyone else, Smith said. Because of this, ,AJire was asked to withdraw from the committee and become a candidate, he said. Alire was named dean/directorof Auraria Library last week and took over the position March l. The previous director, Patricia Breivik, left Auraria after 10 years for a position at Towson State University in Maryland. Alire said she is going to focus on improving services to the campus and to make the library more accessible for students and faculty. "I'm real excited about the challenge that we're all facing here," Alire said. "There's a lot of good things that are going

to be happening and we're really going to try to focus on the Auraria Campus and work on our services here." The library will also be working to straighten out its internal staff organization, Alire said. "We have to look at providing the best services we're capable of because we have an excellent staff," she said. "This library has a lot of potential. I think it' s done good, but there is so much more we can do." The library will be looking at its organizational structure to see if people are where they should be to make it as efficient as possible, she said. One of the frrst things the Auraria Library will be doing is buying new furniture, Alire said. "It's just a start," she said, "but we need to be able to look at our physical environment and make it more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing for the students and faculty that come in here to use the library." Alire received an Ed.D. from the University of Northern Colorado, Greeley. She worked at the University of Denver for four years as a faculty member and assistant to the dean at the graduate school of librarianship and information management. She also worked for four years as library director at Pikes Peak Community College in Colorado Springs before coming to Auraria Library in 1989. Alire is also on the executive board of REFORMA, which is a national library association for services to Spanish speaking people. Alire said she takes her role in higher education and her position as a minority role model very seriously. D

John Graham has done many things in his life. He has scaled the highest mountain in the United States, hitchhiked around the world and worked as a foreign service officer for the United States government. Now he spends his time lecturing about how people can help each other and their community. February 26-27, Graham brought his inspirational message to the Auraria Campus. Graham used three workshops that were designed to teach students how to increase their leadership potential through experience, awareness and knowledge. Graham began lecturing in 1983 and later joined a national program called The Giraffe Project. Ann Medlock, now Graham's wife, started the Giraffe Project as a way to honor and promote people who went out of their way to do something good. People who would "stick their necks out for the common good." Graham began his lecture series with a service workshop designed to help people who are engaged in service-type organizations. He developed a three-step approach to help people handle everyday challenges more effectively. ''The first step is to create a picture of where you're going," he said. He said that if a company wants to. be successful it needs to have a vision of what it wants to be and where it wants to go. "It will inspire people in the organization to recruit new members," he said. "It also acts as a glue to keep the organization together and, if powerfully stated, it will help bring in better results." The next step involved what Graham called "the caring approach." Always treat people with care and show them that you are concerned, he said. Particularly people with whomyouhavehaddifficultywith,headded. "If used effectively, this approach will help build trust and dispel stereotypes," he said. The final step is to have a sound planning process that allows you to get to know people and help make your organization work better. "Understand the people your involved

John Graham with," he said. "Not just their titles, but who they are as people. It's important to deal with people as individuals. They are a real person with a real name." On Feb. 27, Graham directed a coaching session on how to make your ideas work. The workshop gave students advice about how to achieve their professional goals_ Graham charmed, cajoled and questioned the 14 participants in the event to focus on the things they would like to achieve, and then they tried to discern what had prevented them from succeeding. Graham proposed a four-step method to overcoming the obstacles that people encounter from bureaucrats and co-workers when they try to achieve their goals. He presented his system in a series of handouts which briefly described each step. Graham's presentation displayed a departure from the former military man. He described himself as an " Ollie North type" when speaking about his former U.S. military career, but now he uses his lanky 6-foot4-inch frame to help promote the Giraffe Project. He also lectures to businesses to help support himself and his wife. The project, which recognizes often controversial people has paid the price on occasion. When the Giraffe Project board of directors honored a former Israeli intelligence officer who revealed that his country had developed nuclear weapons, six JewishAmerican members quit the project. "We knew it was a controversial decision and some people wouldn't like it, but we did it anyway because it was the right thing," Graham said. "The board decided that he (the officer) had stuck his neck out and made the world a safer place by what he did," he said. 0

Students fight racism, seek reform on campuses (NSNS) With the eyes of the national media upon the racial problems that still plague many college campuses, students are working for their own solutions to racism both overt and subtle. Overt, glaring racist incidents on campuses are at least as old as the widespread integration of American colleges. Students and administrators at many schools have long sought to solve the problem through educational and diversity programs. But many student leaders now look beyond these traditional tactics and insist on campus rules against offensive speech and behavior. Among the symptoms of such racism, they say, are minority enrollment and retention rates far below those of majority population students. Others find the effects of racism in the very material taught in classrooms and seek a curriculum that reflects their cultural background. "In general, there is more student activity around the issue of institutionalized racism," Eugene Walsh of the D.C. Student Coalition Against Apartheid and Racism, said, "because it affects people on a more daily basis than distinct acts of racial harassment." When students atthe University of Notre Dame returned to campus in January they were shocked to find that a black student's room had been broken into, its contents scattered throughout the hallway, and racial slurs written on the walls of the dorm. That incident and a number of others at Notre Dame this year prompted more than 200 students to join in a demonstration Jan. 15 and 16 to persuade administrators to formulate a campus anti-harassment policy.

have to formulate a policy that doesn' t go against the First Amendment." Wilson said he is encouraged by the administration's cooperation so far. "It's a sign of commitment by the university for true cultural diversity an4 the equality of all people," he said. Most everyone agrees that personal attacks on individuals can be motivated by racism. But many also believe that more subtle circumstances, like the failure of a school to attract or keep its minority students, can also be the product of veiled racism within the higher education system. At the University of Houston, members ofthe Black Student Union have collaborated with the dean of students office to expand a minority retention program. "Racism can be apparent in the attrition rate for minorities," Joel Richards, president of the Black Student Union at UH and a participant in the program, said. ''There is often a lack of concern for the success of minority students." Through the program, called REACH, students at the university are matched with older students and professors of their own cultural background. These mentors act as role models, drawing on social and academic experience to guide them through to graduation. Student volunteers from the Black Student Union have helped expand the project to include alumni as mentors as well. According to Richards, eight out of 10 students enrolled in REACH stay at Houston through to completion of their degrees. The program, they say, also has improved

the grade point average of minority student participants. " Pairing students with professors, alumni and other students of the same ettlnic background helps to incorporate them into the university and makes them feel less alienated," Richards said. "When students are involved in campus groups, they tend to stay a Lot longer and excel." Less than 25 years ago, the mere presence of a black student on a campus caused murderous riots. Since then, minority students have made gains in many areas. Integrated education, affirmative action and ethnic studies have made universities more accessible to minority students and more responsive to their needs. Just as these gains caused great controversy when they were first proposed, the proposals of today's anti-racism student activists also have stirred debate. Campus rules against offensive speech, minority recruitment and retention programs, and curriculum reform have ignited new controversies. Though the individual proposals in the debate have changed, many ofthe principles involved have not. Most students still insist that the goal is to create an educational environment in which students of all races can feel comfortable. 'Tue struggle for African-Americans and other people of color for equality in higher education has reached a critical juncture," Ray Davis ofD.C. Student Coalition Against Apartheid and Racism said. 'Tue critical issue now is implementation ofthe programs to achieve diversity and limit racism in the college environment.''O

group organizing the protests, presented demands for a new policy to Notre Dame Vice President for Student Affairs Patricia O' Hara Jan. 15. After O 'Hara refused to meet with them because SUR was not a recognized campus organization, the students demonstrated inside an administration building until she agreed to regular meetings with students to investigate such a policy. ''There was no clear cut way for victims of racial harassment to file a complaint, or even an option to talk to someone," Joe Wilson, a sophomore government and communications major and member of SUR, said. "We want to give minority students a feeling 0f comfort, so that if something occurs, there's a channel through which they can have their feelings and grievances addressed." The policy sought by SUR is similar to those urged by students at many schools. It would forbid and set penalties for the use of language or non-verbal harassment to intimidate people on the basis of their gender, race or sexual preference. Such "rules against racism" already have been adopted at the University of California and Trinity College in Connecticut. But at some schools, including Tufts University in Massachusetts and the University of Wisconsin, anti-harassment rules have been modified or abandoned on the grounds that they abridge free speech. That concern has slowed the effort for a policy at Notre Dame, according to Dennis Moore, director of public relations and information at the Catholic university. "It is a less than swift process," Moore said. "We

PERSPECTIVES By Vicki Engeman Photos Cathy VanSchwartz

Question: Do you perceive a racism problem on campus? Korosh Afshar, CU-D junior, " Not that I know of. I haven't come across any problems myself."

Deanna Butler, MSCD senior, "I wouldn't say exactly racism, but I wonder where the black students are. I've been here two and a half years and I've had only about three blacks in my classes collectively."

Dave Jackson, MSCD junior, "Out front I'd have to say no, but that doesn't mean there's no racism on the MSCD campus."

Chris Kelley, CCD sophomore, "Not that I've noticed. Maybe a little bit. Sometimes I hear things, but not serious though."

Khalid Ali, CU-D junior, "No. I have talked to a lot of people and there's not any problems."

Christy Vitale, MSCD senior, "Kind of. You don't really see it, but you hear people talk about it."

• Alice Fan, MSCD sophomore, "I never really thought about it, but now that you mention it, ldon'tnotlceethnicgroups together."

Melissa Grigsby, CU-D senior, "I don't really see any only because I'm not around enough. It probably exists to some extent, but I haven't seen It."

THEMETROPOLITAN

0PJED Dave's bottom 10 list

The silliest sites and scenes around Auraria Dave Plank Now, in reverse order of stupidity (that is, the dumbest last), here are the 10 most ridiculous things on the Auraria Campus.

10. Trash Can Lids If you look carefully, you will notice that all the lids on the trash cans along the pedestrian mall in the middle of the campus have been carefully chained to the recepticles themselves. This is, we are told, an effort to reduce the pilferage of said trash can lids by vagrants. It seems the lids are made of aluminum which the aforementioned vagrants can sell to recyclers. It's a sad day indeed when the less fortunate among us have this, their last opportunity for meaningful income, taken away by the vicious bureaucrats who run AHEC.

9.

Library Study Rooms

While it can only be assumed that AHEC is in favor both of studying and rooms in which to study, it seems a little odd that the rooms designed for that purpose in the Auraria Library are without doors. Why, you may (or may not) ask? Well, a few years ago, when the rooms had doors, it came to the attention of somebody that people weren't just studying in those rooms, they were having sex in them. As you can imagine, that just wouldn't do, so the doors were quickly removed and spirited away to some undisclosed location. So now, if you want to have sex on campus, you have to do it in the darkrooms in the photo lab in the Arts Building, or in one of the towers at St. Cajetan's (You mean... In a church?). Unless you have a key

to MSCD Student President Dan Holden's office.

8. The Horse Trough/Fountain Just East of the Mercantile Come on. Was Auraria really that desperate for something to put in that spot? How about a parking space?

7.

Information Booth South of Lot G

Nobody who needs to get somewhere on this campus and can't ends up in front of Lot G. They end up behind Thirsty's. That's where the information booth should be. And while the attendant wasn't giving out helpful advice, he or she could watch for muggers and rapists that hang out there and wait for helpless students to victimize.

6.

East Classroom Building

This is the building at 14th and Arapahoe t~at CUDenver abandoned when the North Classroom Building was built. You can't give away office space in Denver, so the East Classroom Building has sat empty now for about three years, sort of like Auraria's very own HUD home.

5.

Parking Garage

It's got big red and green lights. It's got a state-ofthe-art video security system. It's got locked doors after 6 p.m. on Fridays. What it hasn't got is patrons. There are still as many people parking off-campus north of the Auraria Parkway as before, and the lady who calls everybody "Hon" in the lot west of Thirsty's is a lot friendlier than anybody who works for Auraria Parking. And if you're short of money one day, she'll let you slide. Try that one with the AHEC Parking Gestapo.

4.

MSCD Student Government

The fact that these bufoons are allowed to exist, let alone occupy their choice third-floor offices in the

Student Union, is a travesty. On the other hand, if they were thrown out they'd probably just spend some student fees on space in a nicer building where they'd all have reserved parking spaces.

3.

Student Union Convenience Store

The lines are too long, they don't sell Ding Dongs, and the only place you can find more outrageous prices is down the hall at the Auraria Book Center. Come to think of it, they don't sell Ding Dongs there either.

2.

Tivoli

The award for the biggest business deal screwing in the 1980s has got to go to AHEC for leasing the Tivoli out. Besides a couple of places to pay too much for beer, the Tiv has done nothing to enhance either the lives of students or the coffers of the campus. Let's just hope that the whole place goes belly-up soon so that we can get the parking spaces back.

1.

Amphitheater South of the Student Union

If you said "What amphitheater?" you were right. This was supposed to be the big bonus when the rest of the mall was completed under budget. Yi pee. A bunch of concrete blocks and a microphone jack. It's not exactly Red Rocks, but it does suit the general tone of the campus better than, say, something attractive. Well, there it is. It should be said that the above results were arrived at after a lengthy nomination and election process, and the results presented do not necessarily represent the views of the staff of The Metropolitan. 路 They would have made MSCD Student Government number 1.

EDITORIAL Black History Month starts with family pride, education In response to this weeks' letter to the editor from Joe Navarro: Although your comments on how black Americans are being treated during Black History Month are appreciated, in many ways your sentiment is totally unfounded. I, as a black American, found Black History Month to be a delicious smorgasbord board of various educational facts, entertaining shows, interesting lectures and wonderful art exhibits. I saw Black History Month as a quest-seeking adventure for those searching for true and accurate knowledge concerning black Americans. During the month of February one could find some tantalizing history each waking moment of the day. For instance, TNT, a well-known cable station, showed an array of black feature films dating from the 1940s to the 1980s. Great films like "Lady Sings the Blues," a sad but true biographical history of the great blues singer Bilw Holiday, or "Cabin in the Sky," one of the first suldio-made feature films, starring a young, vibrant A.ena Horne and a entire cast of talented black actors. " Additionally, The Denver Art Museum sponsored a series of lectures dealing with black history and African art. Further, on campus the MSCD Black Student Alliance sponsored several lectures and a film series. One of the most interesting and intriguing lectures was the "Tuskegee Airmen's Experiences During World War II," a forum featuring black pilots. In fact, I could go on and on concerning the great

educational events that took place during Black History Month. True, in several ways blacks are underrepresented in education and employment. But let's give credit where credit is due. Many American companies award funds and scholarships to a variety of foundations that support black educational goals. Companies like Miller's Brewing Co., Coors, IBM and, once again, I could go on and on. In fact, most of these companies and others keep famous black magazines such as "Ebony," "Essence" and "Jet" in business by providing crucial advertising dollars. Also, let's not discard the annual "Bill Picket Black Rodeo's" contribution to the history of black American cowboys, which takes place every September in Denver. Why are black Americans always expected to blame everything and everyone in society for the problems that plague many black communities? Frankly, it is not white America putting many blacks out of jobs, it is an expanding world and technology which lacks room for the unskilled. Why must we be expected to sing that same old song? The educational opportunities are out there for the taking, but the sad fact is that too many of our youth aren't grabbing. I come from a family of four children, and fortunately we were taught by my parents the importance of self worth. Also, like many young black children growing up in Denver, I was forced to bus from a predominantly

black school to a predominantly white school. But that did not stop me or my other siblings from learning all we could. As of now I am a junior in college, my older sister is a college graduate, my younger sister will graduate from Metropolitan State College of Denver in May and my younger brother has just received an athletic and mathematic scholarship from the University of Michigan. Additionally, my father grew up in Arkansas, and has known the deep-seated root of racism, but that never stopped him or his father and mother from owning their own land which my grandfather and his father acquired from a white man who defaulted on his mortgage. I guess the moral of my story is that black history starts in the home and black parents teach it. It doesn't matter how long or short a designated month is, if we, as parents and educated adults, fail in our responsibilities toward our own children. Many black Americans and white Americans are doing their parts in keeping black history alive and well in America. However, it is up to you and many other Americans to drink from the fountain of knowledge. But instead of reminding black Americans how white America is failing them, remind them how they can fail themselves by not seizing the opportunities they do have.

LETTERS American history warped by white perspective

11

THE METROPOLITAN

Editor, Black History Month, the shortest month in the calendar year, has quietly come to a close, hardly leaving a dent in the consciousness of m·ost Americans. Life will go on as usual, leaving people with the same perceptions or misconceptions that they have carried all along about African Americans. America is treated to a smattering of Black history, while the rest of the year African Americans continue to face discrimination and extremely high disproportionate underrepresentation in education and employment. Black History Month offers America an opportunity to take a brief peek into the contributions and historical development of African Americans but doesn't actually incorporate African American history as an integral part of U.S. history. America still has to come to grips with its treatment of African Americans which was a brutal history, and continues to have implications on the current social, economic and political conditions that they face. This country's birth and primary economic development was extremely dependent upon the barbarous system of slavery. Africans were forcibly taken from their land, put in chains and brought to this continent, barely surviving brutal torment along the way. Families were separated, people were killed and tortured, and they were forced to labor. This isn't quite the same picture that Coors executive, and family heir, Bill Coors painted a few years ago when he insisted that the best thing that ever happened to Black people was that they were brought over in chains. On the contrary, Africa's estimated 100 million people were cut in half to an estimated 50 million people as a result of a savage rampage of Africa due to slave trade activities. Africa had a high level of social development. By some, it was considered the cradle of civilization, showing evidence of extremely old cultures. African societies made major contributions to art, science and technology. There were ancient scholars and philosophers. However, they faced major devastation as a result of European conquests. American ethnocentric historical accounts of African American history often distorts their actual development and has systematically sought to dehumanize their existence. It is much easier to oppress other human beings when they have been reduced to less

than human. The original version of the U.S. constitution considered Black males as 3/5ths of a man. Black women were considered nothing. Yet they were all property. Reconstruction, the period after slavery in the south, an era which was to have given African Americans an opportunity to assimilate into America, completely failed. African Americans dreams of genuine equality and freedom died and never really had a chance. Through a history of intimidation, uniust laws, violence and lynchings they have been systematically denied access to full democratic rights. During the 1960's African Americans were engaged in rebellions against America's system of apartheid. Many frustrated people, who were tired of 300 years of social, political and economic inequities decided that they were no longer going to accept their oppression any longer and took to the streets demanding justice. Atrican Americans to this day continue to struggle for equality and democracy. Their entire history could be characterized as a questfor justice. African American heroes include figures like Fredrick Douglas, Harriet Tubman, and Sojourner Truth, who all rose up from slavery and worked tirelessly to free other slaves. In contemporary times leaders like Malcolm X, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Medgar Evers rose to the occasion and were assassinated for their defense of justice. African Americans have made many contributions to the development of the U.S., but their most important contribution has been to expand democracy. The aspirations of African Americans represent the most advanced level of political consciousness of any people in the U.S. American society has a lot to learn from African Americans. America cannot remain in·e state of denial about its own brutal and unjust history. It must face up to the facts, learning from its past in order to improve its future. America can learn about expanded democratic rights by understanding the democraticdemarids of African American people. African American history is integrally woven in the historical development of America from its inception, it didn't just happen every February.

Seven dollars and fifty cents can now put you in a field with a Great Horned Owl, three Harris hawks, a Golden Eagle and master falconer Kin A. Quitugua, the president of HawkQuest. "I saw birds that were shot and birds that were electrocuted and I felt I had to do something," Quitugua said. Quitugua is a 3.8-year-old Guam native who has been falconing for 15 years. He is licensed by the Colorado Division of Wildlife and the United States Fish and Wildlife. He is a caretaker of the birds. HawkQuest, an organization based in Aurora and a new club at Auraria, intends to provide an opportunity for people to understand and appreciate the interactions of all wild, living animals. Club sponsors are Robert Cohen, a Metropolitan State College of Denver biology professor and ornithologist, and Honi Haber, a University of Colorado at Denver philosophy professor. The club began when an elementary school teacher and friend of Quitugua's brought the first bird he had in bis care to the classroom. "We want to educate people about the birds and how they are a barometer of the environment," said Debbie Woodward, HawkQuest's club president on campus. Woodward met Quitugua last year and is training to be a falconer in her spare time. HawkQuest goes out in the field almost

POLITICS Denver School Board

MSCD student works toward education reform J.C. Long The Metropolitan

,..;..--

Metropolitan State College of Denver student Frank Deserino knows the value of a good education and he wants to help parents, teachers, students and administrators in the Denver Public School System learn that value as well. The best way to accomplish his goals would be to run for a seat on the Denver School Board - and that's just what he is doing. Deserino, 29, said that he noticed a lack of communication between the teachers and ·the school board during the recent strike debates. 'They weren't working together," he said. "They were working in two separate groups. The school board was angry over the threats to strike and the teachers were angry because they felt the school board wasn't supportive enough to their needs. I looked around and saw that things weren't working. People weren 'tworking together for the main reason they should be - the student." As he stands behind the counter of Wilson'sHouseofSuedeandLeather, where he is an assistant manager, his fashionable dress and youthful appearance might make him seem unqualified to some voters. But youth may be what the board needs, he said. "Maybe with youth something can get done," he said. First, though, he must get a petition signed by 50 registered voters from Denver and then he will vie with seven other candidates at the May 21 election for the two open seats on the board . Deserino moved to Denver four years ago from Atlantic City, N.J. and when he speaks there is still a slight hint of a northeastern accent in his voice. He came to Denver after experiencing two personal tragedies in his life. His father died and his wife was killed in an automobile accident within three months of each other. He speaks softly when recalling the memories, but he doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for him. He said that he learned a lot from the experience and he has grown from it.

In some ways, his views on education stem from his father. He talks about how his father, a first-generation American-born Italian, stressed the importance of an education. he never graduated from high school, but he told his son that the only way to get anywhere in life was to get an education. "H~ wanted me to be a lawyer, but I fell in love with American history, particularly the Civil War," he said. His love for education lead him to pursue a varied educational background which continues today. He received a bachelor of arts degree in history from Stockton State College in New Jersey and he also had three minors: women's studies, military studies and ancient studies. He has a master of arts degree in behavioral sciences from Glasboro College, also in New Jersey, but he said that his master's degree is only recognized in New Jersey. In addition to all of his degrees, he is also licensed to teach in that state. Some states, however, require a state certification for anyone from another state.

"I will devote my time mainly to going into classrooms, going into schools, and asking teachers if I can help," he said. He does not make many campaign promises. The public is tired of hearing candidates make promises that they never keep, he said. "I promise to stand behind the teachers," he said. "I will try to do the best job I can given the situation I'm put in." He said he knows that some ofthe stances he has taken and some of his ideas will not be popular with everyone, but he believes it's time for a change.

THE METROPOLITAN

SPORTS A view from the press box GAG Tournament loss

.. '

, "

Dale Shrull Sports Editor Head coach Bob Hull had just won his 114th game of his career at Metropolitan State College of Denver. A 92-71 win over Regis College. The next night, March 1, his Roadrunners would go for the Colorado Athletic Conference Championship against the University of Southern Colorado. After compiling a 114-56 record in his six years at MSCD, and his second Coach of the Year award in as many years, the question must be asked, "Is Division I in your future?" "It's not areal priority," Hull said. "You always have to listen to offers if they come." For now Hull is concerned with the immediate future - a game against USC and ~possible CAC Tournament title. The routine will be the same for Hull, pre-game meal about four hours before the game and there won't be any superstitions to worry about. "I stay away from those, my wife believes in them," Hull confessed. "She'll say 'don't wear this tie, the last time you wore it you lost."' March 1, shortly before 7 p.m., MSCD versus USC for the CAC Championship. A team that the 'Runners have defeated twice this season.

EARN

Hulls hope for lucky future at MSCD Cindy Hull, Bob's wife, slides the black pump from her right foot and a penny emerges from the toe of the shoe. "Here's the penny from when we beat them down their," explained Cindy, referring to her finding a penny in USC's gym before the 'Runners beat them 92-89. The Hulls have been married for 10 years and Cindy rarely misses an MSCD game. They met at the University of Illinois when Bob was a graduate assistant coach for the basketball team. "He dated me because I had a car and I dated him because he had tickets to the basketball games," Cindy said joking! y. On this night, Bob selected a purple floral tie. Did Cindy have a say in the selection? "No. He asked me if it matched, that's all," Cindy replied. The first 3:42 of the game the 'Runners went scoreless. During that 3 :42, the USC Indians scored 11 points and coach Hull paced, sat, stood, glared and agonized over every one of the 11 USC points. After cutting the lead to 10, a three pointer by USC at the 14:44 mark of the second half brings Hull out of his seat. The lead was now 67-54. The strain of the game is beginning to

take its toll. But Hull remains clam. "We can't catch up if we don't stop them," Hull implores his players during a time out. "We've got to play good pressure defense." A stifling zone defense by USC was tightening the noose around the Roadrunners' neck. Time was running out. "Don't give up," Hull yells. 87-71 is the score. The 'Runners don't give up and cut the lead to 87-76 with 2:53 to go. Fifty-three ticks of the clock remain, the 'Runners haven't given up. 92-84 and they take their final time out. "Let's have an aggressive trap, we have to steal the ball on the trap," Hull says. The trap did not garnish a steal and the Indians scored upping their lead to 94-84. With 30 seconds remaining Hull knows the game is lost. Hull stands and calmly watches the final seconds unfold. The final score, 97-88.· "I'm so proud of him," Cindy said after the game as she waited for Bob to finish with his numerous interviews. "He never gives up and he's always so calm." Bob Hull slowly makes his way across the West gym flpor and patiently shakes my hand and agrees to yet another interview. His face is tired from the strain. The strain of a

loss. A strain that Hull has experienced only 11 times over the last two seasons. There will be other losses. Fans of the MSCD basketball program know that as long as Bob Hull remains at the helm there will more wins than losses. "Right now I love being at Metro and living in Denver," Hull said. I'm sure that everyone hopes be stays in Denver and at Metro. Bob loosened his purple-floral tie and greeted some friends. If Cindy has her way, that tie will go on the don't-wear-for-basketball-games rack. And the penny... It was good only for her thoughts. Not for a win on 0 March l.

THE METRO POLIT AN

'Runners collapse in CAC Championship; lose to USC 97-88 Gary Williams The Metropolitan After cruising through the regular season of Colorado Athletic Conference play and dominating post-season CAC awards, the Metropolitan State College of Denver Roadrunners were upset by the University of Southern Colorado, 97-88, in the championship of the CAC Tournament at Denver West High School March 1. In the championship game, MSCD ran into a team with a chip on its shoulder. USC had, in a sense nothing to play for, by the fact thatthey would not be eligible forthe NCAA Division II Tournament, and were already in the NAIA Tournament. But they had something to prove to MSCD. "We wanted to prove to them that we could beat them," said Mike Ward, a USC senior. "We are a better team than the one they played two times before." From the opening tip of the game, MSCD was struggling to keep up with the inspired Indians, who jumped out to an 11-0 lead. MSCD fans, who are asked to stand until their team scores its first basket, were left on their feet for the first 3:42 of the contest. The first half saw the 'Runners shoot 29 percent from the floor. They were a dismal three of 22 from the three-point line for the game. Despite their cold hand, MSCD stayed within striking distance and even closed to within five points with 5:08 left in the first half. With 2:55 remaining in the half, Steve Shirley of USC hit a three pointer and was fouled by junior guard Ralph Rivers. He

converted the free throw, which was followed by another three pointer by Ward, and MSCD never got closer than eight points for the rest of the contest. USC played a compact zone defense throughout the game, forcing MSCD to rely on the outside shot. They were unable to get the ball inside to center Fred Brown who had been a major factor in the two previous wins over USC. Brown connected on all six of his shots, but early foul trouble kept him on the bench for the final 12 minutes of the first half. Junior center and Denver native Tommie Robinson led the Indians with 23 points and eight rebounds. "Usually if we hit from the outside, it opens up our inside game and that just didn't happen tonight," senior forward Tim Moser said. "We couldn't hit from the outside," MSCD head coach Bob Hull said. Rivers paced all scorers with 24 points and senior Adrian Hutt, who was named CAC Player of the Year, scored 18. Junior forward Florian Miller pulled down IO rebounds, which gave him 19 boards in the tournament in just 36 minutes of play. Southern Colorado made it into the finals by way of a 101-94 overtime win over the University of Denver in the semifinal game. The 'Runners started the tournament by defeating the Regis College Rangers, 92-71, in the tournament semifinals Feb. 28. The 'Runners controlled the game from the start as they shot 53 percent from the field and outrebounded the Rangers 44-32. Moser led the way for MSCD, scoring 26

"We told our kids in the locker room that this is the kind of game we are going to have in the regional - this is the kind of team we are going to face," Hull said. "We have to play a lot better better to be successful in the regional." Florian Miller said that MSCD will put this game behind them as they move into the tournament. "We're going to come back strong in the tournament. We can't go in thinking about this game," Miller said. Hutt, Brown and Rivers were named to the All-CAC first team, while Moser made the second team. Hull was named the top coach in the CAC. ~
