Protesters gathered in the rain in front of the Student Union April 16 to hear student government leaders, activists and state politicians rail against MSCD's anti-discrimination policy. "We're sick of people sitting on the fence," MSCD Student Government President Chip Wiman told the crowd. ''The Constitution says you can't discriminate," Wiman said. "The Faculty Senate endorsed non-discrimination. SACAB has endorsed it. The governor and the city have embraced it. But Metro's president has exceptions." MSCD's anti-discrimination policy prohibits discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in all college activities, with an exception for religious clubs and ROTC. The rally was held to protest religious clubs an·a Rote 'having access to student fees and facilities while excluding people on the basis of sexual orientation. State Sen. Pat Pascoe, D-Denver, told the crowd she stood in solidarity with them. "I don't understand a discrimination policy with exceptions," she said. Another state senator, Donald Mares, DDenver, also condemned MSCD's policy, calling on President Thomas Brewer to fig~t

for change. Denise Johnson, vice president of the Auraria Lesbian and Gay Alliance, read a statement from U.S. Rep. Pat Schroeder, D-Colorado, supporting the rally. MSCD Student Government Presidentelect Tom Mestnik told the crowd, "The arguments used to deny rights based on sexual orientation are the same arguments used 30 years ago against people of color." Mestnik called people who supported such discrimination "bigots, homophobes and hate-mongers." JeffDavidson, president of ALAGA, said MSCD students were paying to discriminate against themselves. "This should piss everyone off," Davidson said. George Walker, a Republican candidate for the CU Board of Regents, received an ovation from the crowd when he called for an openly gay or lesbian candidate for the board of regents. The only note in counterpoint was sounded by MSCD Director of Equal Opportunity Percy Morehouse. While stating his personal opposition to discrimination, Morehouse cited the constitutional conflict that led the administration to adopt its policy. "Ethnic minorities and women became protected (from discrimination) because they went through due process," Morehouse said. "They fought it out in the courts." He urged 0 gays and lesbians to do the same.

NEWS BRIEFLY Creekside construction damages water mains The brown water in the Auraria bathrooms on Friday, May 10, was not the result of someone before you forgetting to flush. Frank Ellis, Auraria's plant maintenance supervisor, said the dirty water was caused by construction work by Cherry Creek. A contractor apparently hit a water main around 2:00 p.m., sending dirt and rocks into the main. After calling the Denver Water Board to find out the cause, Facilities Management sent announcements telling students not to drink the water. It took about three hours to flush the water lines and there was no damage to plumbing, Ellis said.

Literature students attend national conference Four MSCD English majors represented the school at the seventh annual National Undergraduate Literature conference in Ogden, Utah, April 16 to 18. Fiona Casida, a senior literature major, presented a paper, "Sublety and Silence in Pride and Prejudice" at the conference's opening session. Other participants from MSCD included Barbara Day, Metrosphere editor Catherine O'Neill and Dorothy Hicks. All four are members of Sigma Tau Delta, the international English honor society.

Child care center referendum passes; plans now heading to school boards Martin Rush Staff Writer

With just 3.3 percent of eligible students voting, a $4 increase in student fees was approved April 15 and 16 to fund a new child care center in a campuswide referendum. The new center, which was approved 858 -266, is at least 18 to 24 months away. "With all the debate that went on, the margin is pretty surprising," said Emerson Holliday, division director of Auraria Student Services. The governing boards ofthe three schools sharing the Auraria Campus-MSCD, University of Colorado at Denver and Community College of .Denver-will probably review the vote in May or June, Holliday said. If one board refuses to participate in the child care expansion, it would effectively kill the project, according to Holliday. Once all the schools sign on, a long-term program plan would have to be developed and submitted to the Colorado Commission on Higher Education for its approval, Holliday said.

Site location for a new child care facility center would double capacity to about 400, would have to be studied, an architect hired, and funding secured through a bond issue, according to Holliday. Debby Jump,directoroftheAurariaChild Care Center, said, "It will probably be a year and a half to two years before we can open the doors to a new facility." The current facility serves 180 children, including those who attend evenings and part time, Jump said. A new child care

Peace Corps provides opportunity to use education as volunteer

Seven MSCD political science students grabbed the "outstanding delegation" award during the Model League of Arab States conference at the Air Force Academy April 11. "We worked well as a team," said Joy Fritschmann. "If it wasn 't a team effort, we couldn't have done it." The team competed against other area schools including the University of Southern Colorado, Regis University and the University of Arizona. Students competing for MSCD were: Fritschmann, Beth Skinner, Nick Athanasiou, Michael deYoanna, Jeff Rieck, Tanya Dreschel and Julie Anniri. The group's adviser is Robert

It's the toughest job you'll ever love. Those words are the familiar slogan of the Peace Corps, and according to Rhonda Piggins, a Peace Corps recruiter, are accurate in describing her experience in the corps. Piggins was at Auraria recruiting students April 20 to 22. She said the main reasons a student might consider the Peace Corps are the opportunity to learn about another culture, to give something back to society, to get practical work experience and

the travel. This summer, the Peace Corps will be the first volunteer organization to serve the former Soviet Union. In all, 65 programs are offered in 97 countries. Piggins served for 27 months in the Dominican Republic. "When I wasn't satisfied with the job I had, I went out on a limb. I sold everything I owned, quit my job, and joined the Peace Corps. There is a $10,000 difference between what I am making now and what I would be making without my Peace Corps experience." For information, call the recruiting Cl office at (800) 525-4621.

I am pleased to address the Board on the proposed Tuition by the Credit Hour Plan. Attached is a brief summary of materials that I believe support my position that this proposal has not been researched adequately by Metropolitan State College of Denver and therefore, should not be implemented. If the Board decides to endorse this proposal, I have a

compromise plan for consideration that I believe is equitable and acceptable to the students. I will attempt to answer any questions you may have during my presentation, and will be available for further inquiries. Listed below are the attachments: 1.

NOTE: 1. These projections assume that the class enrollment patterns of the students do not change after initial change projected by the administration due to implementation of Tuition by the Credit Hour with the $20/Cr Hr window from 12-18 Cr Hr. 2. The percentage of students taking each number of Credit Hours is based solely on guess~s on.the part of the administration. They take into account only the historical increase in enrollment and that a percentage Cone of the guesses) of all students who face an increase will drop back to taking less credit hours (another guess). No account is taken of students who face a decrease increasing their classload.

from Chi p Wiman Because very little data has been compiled to support this structural change I am proposing that MSCD implement a one-year trial program which utilizes President Brewer's model, with the following two exceptions: 1. If the model proves to be financially detrimental to the college after one year or if academic programs suffer a negative impact, MSCD would revert to the current system. 2. If the proposal is successful, it would automatically go into effect with a permanent $20 window. I am also proposing the MSCD perform an annual audit and review of any tuition structure, to determine fiscal impact on the institution, students' costs, and the effect upon enrollment, retention, and graduation.

If students need a larger award, will less students receive money? Will the financial aid office be able to handle additional workload without additional personnel? • Student reaction Will students take less classes per semester, thereby extending the time to graduate? • Faculty reaction If certain departments suffer a decrease in enrollment, will faculty lose their jobs?

TUITION BY THE CREDIT HOUR REPORTS

• Community reaction Does this proposal make MSCD less accessible and less affordable? • Fiscal impact Will MSCD lose or gain revenue? Is it fiscally prudent, in light of these financially troubling times, to change a tuition structure?

Student Government

"Non-Traditional student Government·

Dear Metro students: Phew! I never thought that I would work so hard as Student Government President this year. I really had no idea how many hours the job would take, how much weight I would gain, how much hair I would lose, and in many respects how much my spirit suffered this year. But, I am looking forward to spending more time with my family. _c

First, for those students that think that Student Government can't make a difference - I think we have proved them wrong. Without active involvement from Student Government, future generations of Metro students would have been required to complete a community service project, for no college credit. Community service is a necessary component of an education, and in fact, we encouraged and participated in many such projects. Second, because so many of you voiced your opinions through surveys, elections, referendums, and stopping by my office we became student advocates on such issues as Tuition by the Credit Hour, grade grievance and appeal process, and Child Care. Your vote was important and made the difference. Without you, Student Government is almost powerless. Third, next year's Student Government promises to continue this student advocacy and leadership. But, they will need your input and support. We will always need students - serving on committees, joining the Senate, joining a club. If you want to be involved in Student Government, there are always opportunities. Fourth, I want to thank all of the people who worked so hard to make this year's Student Government the most successful in the history of Metro. Special recognition goes to Dr. Karen Thorpe, Yolanda Ericksen, Davidson Porter, Dr. Liz Friot, Dr. Tom Brewer, Dr. David Williams, Dr. Carol Futhey, Dr. Percy Morehouse, Dr Charlie Dobbs, Billi Mavromatis, Kate Lutrey, All the Met staff, the Student Government members, Joe Arcese, JoAnn Soker, Dick Feuerborn, Anne McKelvey, Jim Ferguson, Debby Jump, SACAB, Emerson Holliday, the Auraria Board, Jose Rodriquez, Ron Veach, Sandy Potter, Bill Hellman, Tim Jorgenson, Tara Tull, and Maggie McConaghie. (And if I forgot your name, please forgive me - with finals, I'm not all here.) Without your help, we couldn't have done it. Finally, I'll still be around next year - as the Student Trustee and as a student. As always I will be ready, willing, and able to take on student issues. Congratulations Metro! You're the greatest. Sincerely, Chip Wiman •

EAMPUS CRIME

He didn't 'turn the other cheek' Auraria Public Safety officers issued a summons April IO to a man for assault after a sidewalk evangelist with a bullhorn told police the man had hit him. Police identified the suspect as Hendrick A. Mills, 37, of Denver. APS said officers were dispatched to the area of the library after getting reports of a man with a bullhorn reading Bible passages and harassing passersby. Police said that after verifying that the evangelist, Daniel K Moriarity, 34, of Denver, bad obtained permission from

campus authorities to preach, they turned away and heard a disturbance. When the officers turned around, Moriarity pointed at Mills and told officers that Mills had struck him. Mills reportedly told officers that he had hit Moriarity because he was "inciting people against homosexuals and minorities." Mills' court date was unavailable.

Disappearing acts A computer, an answering machine and a wallet disappeared April I to 9 in three separate incidents from the same room in the North Classroom.

An answering machine vanished during the night of April l to 2, followed by a computer that walked away during the night of April 7 to 8. The combined value of the items was $1639, APS said. The employee who reported the thefts, reported April 8 the theft of her wallet. She said her wallet was stolen from her backpack April 8 or 9. The victim said she had her wallet at lunch April 8. She took her backpack home that night and then noticed it was missing when she went to lunch the next day. She told police that she had left the backpack unattended April 8 when she put it in her desk drawer and left the office.

CAMPUS African-American women discuss issues at conference Kristrun Maria Heidberg The Metropolitan Obstacles facing black women due to gender and race oppression were the topics of a conference held in the Student Union April 18. The Sisters in Support of Change Organization was formed one year ago by a group of African-American women after they had taken an African-American female identity class at MSCD. "After having that class, we just felt we should form a support group for ourselves," said Ashara Walker, MSCD junior, who

"What we need to do now is to sow the seeds of what was planted by those African-American women who came before us."

was one of the coordinators of the conference. · Walker, whose major is African-American studies and speech communication, said most feminist alliances deal with European feminism. SISCO, however, deals with issues that concern women of color. "Issues that white feminists deal with are

different from the issues black women deal with," Walker said. "White women have white privilege, whereas black women have always had to fight for being colored first, before being able to fight because being women." They keynote speaker at the conference was Carmen WilJiams, MSCD professor. She talked about AfricanAmerican feminist ideology. Williams said black women today owe much to their foremothers who were responsible for paving the way for Afrocentric feminism. S. Ellott Fey I The Melropoitan "What we need to do carmen Williams (far left) discusses some of her ideas now," Williams said,"is to to MSCD students April 18 on the Auraria Campus. sow the seeds of what was planted by those African-American women but also gender consciousness. who came before us."

"White women's focus on gender as the "Many of us don't even know what our central issue isn't relevant to us," she said. foremothers had to say." She said many "Because our focus isn't just gender, our black women aren't aware of the fact that focus is race, gender and other kinds of almost 200 years ago black women were oppression." talking about not only racial consciousness It was also discussed at the conference

that the direction of white feminism was to attack a white male power structure which black men were not a part of. Because of that, and other different primarily goals, black women had their own kind of feminism to fight for. Walker said she and other SISCO members were impressed by WilJiams speech. "It was really interesting and it really set some boundaries as far as being able to distinguish between European feminism and African feminism," she said. SISCO has a membership of about 50 people and, according to Walker, about 30 people showed up for the conference, which lasted from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Two workshops were offeFed at the conference. They were called "Love and/or Relationships," and "Healing Wounds Between Sisters." They dealt with problems· people face in their daily lifes concerning relationships with other people. "The conference was very successful, although we would have wanted more people to participate," Walker said. "But the fact that it was so small really allowed for intimacy. We weren't afraid to just sit and talk to each other." To join SISCO you must be willing to remain an active participant in the planning, organization and activation of events designed to support SISCO's organizational goals.For more information, call Asbara Walker at 292-5984. 0

can learn at their own rate by practicing with the higher belts," McGill said. "Beginners learn the basics and about their own abilities. Tae Kwon Do is a way to explore your talents and find your limitations. Students learn what they can do and what they should do." McGill said summer is a good time to enroll because the students to instructor ratio is low. The students receive two credits and are graded on attendance, enthusiasm and improvement.

Students are getting a kick out of an MSCD Tae Kwon Do class. "People join because of the conditioning asp~cts of Tae Kwon Do," said instructor Lawrence McGill. "It used to be that people joined for the self-defense aspects, now selfdefense is a pleasant benefit from a good workout." McGill said that Tae Kwon Do "is good for leg sports. We have skiers, tennis players and half the women's soccer team in our classes." Tae Kwon Do is a Korean martial art, which emphasizes kicking, that has evolved over thousands of years. MSCD sophmore Scott Mitchell, 27, is a white belt in the back rows taking his first semester ofTae Kwan Do. "It's fun, it's a good break from classes and it's good exercise," Mitchell said. "I've learned a few kicks, front and side. I guess the self-defense could come in handy if I need it some day." l.all'a Gragg-Toma "We start out slow, but the more athletic students Students work out in Lawrence McGill's Tae Kwan Do class.

Students learn a basic form and then refine their techniques as they move up. When a student tests for a higher belt, McGill brings in instructors from other martial arts schools. McGill founded the Colorado State Tae Kwon Do Association in 1982 and is able to place students who want to continue in schools throughout the state. McGill was one of General Choi's first students outside ofKorea and currently holds a sixth-degree black belt. MCgill served as one of the team managers for the United States when Tae Kwan Do was a demonstration sport at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul. He is also a referee for international competitions. "He is a walking textbook, he used to be a walking terror," said black belt assistant instructor Grady Howell. McGill has a symbol embroidered onto his fraying black belt. The symbol is three lines curled up like a wave crashing back on itself. The symbol is called a 'teaguk' andrepresentsthethinking man's yin-yang. "The teaguk is like the universal yin-yang symbol, but it's a circle that represents three things instead of two," he said. "The three lines represent mind, body and spirit.

Consequences of fake l.D. warned in MSCD posters Mark W. Forsyth The Metropolitan

,. MSCD students have donated time and ideas to urge other students to stay out ofjail. In January posters started to appear on campus telling students that applying for a State of Colorado identification in another name could land them in jail. MSCD students in an advanced advertising design class developed the campaign and donated their ideas to the state for use on the posters. The award-winning poster by Rhona Lloyd shows a young person sitting on a concrete bench behind bars. At the top of the poster in large white letters is the question, "Fake I.D.?" At the bottom of the poster appear the words "NOT a good idea." Last year 2,500 people had criminal charges filed against them by the Colorado Department of Revenue, Motor Vehicle Compliance section. The charges filed ranged from criminal impersonation, a felony, to second degree forgery and completing a false application, a misdemeanor, said Karl Trump, investigator for the department. " A large number of young people try to obtain a fake I.D. to get into bars; they don't realize what can happen to them," said Trump. He and four other investigators with the department of revenue investigate the crimes and file all cases with the district

attorney in the county where the crimes occur. Trump said that juveniles wiJI use another birth certificate or social security card to get a fake LD. issued by the state. "This can come back on them later in life by way of warrants for their arrest and ruined credit ratings," Trump said. State investigators have been trained in some of the methods used in getting a fake l.D. The investigators then train all the license examiners on how to detect forged documents, birth certificates and other forms of identification, Trump said. The examiners will contact the local police department if they think someone has a forged document and the person will, in most cases, be arrested, Trump said. Trump approached MSCD with the idea for posters that could be. placed on college campuses to alert young people to the risks involved in obtaining a fake I.D. Susan Josepher, chair and coordinator of the art department, authorized an advanced advertising design class to develop ideas for the campaign, Trump said. The art work and ideas were donated to the state for use on the posters. "The posters will be put up at high schools, night clubs, liquor stores, banks, post offices and passport offices," Trump said. " There are many reasons why people try to obtain fake identification, some of them are serious crimes. We would like to stop kids from doing it," Trump said. 0

Doesn't it seem like just yesterday the Judds were bidding teary goodbyes across the nation? Well so much for a mourning period! Now, suddenly, Wynonna (Why-no-na, as in why even try, Nona?) is on her own, swimming in a sea of vicious sharks (like this sharppenned critic) trying desperately not to drown. In real water that might not be too tough for her. She could probably stay afloat without even paddling. But Wynonna can't seem to keep her little head bobbing without thesupportofherdearoldmom. So there she is, moments after the announcement of the tear-jerking, tragic breakup of these mother/daughter country wunderkinds (or is it bumpkins?), and Wynonna already has, sealed and ready to go, a 10-song CD? Sounds a bit fishy, even to this shark. The disc begins with WhatltTakes, which will leave you wondering if you beard anything. If you 're gonna do what it takes, pick the damn thing up and run, anything to speed it up. Halfwaythroughthedisk,MommaJudd, Naomi, jumps aboard this slow-moving train for a sentimental little reunion probably taped moments after the breakup. When I Reach The Place I'm Going (which could take a while at her sloth-like pace) has a Charlie Daniel's Band feel to it, but much more laid back. (We've been over that. No sense beating a dead horse. Speaking of which, in a race between WynonnaJudd and a dead horse, who do you think would win? Never mind.) Most of the disk is a thin mixture of adult contemporary/alternative rockabilly on

Valium.Al/OfThatLoveFromHerefeatures a nice bright arrangement with more instruments aurally centered, nipping at her vocals: "I can see loading the trunk of my old blue Oldsmobile/I can see the tears in my momma's eyes when she kissed her baby goodbye/I can still feel all of that love from

here." It's a touching track brought to life by Wynonna's crystal vocals simmering with passion. She leaves us with Live With Jesus, a track that would make any critic cringe with guilt, even one without a conscience such as myself. "I'm gonna live with Jesus," she sings over and over as if to say, "Your venomous pens can't hurt me - I'm in good with the guy upstairs." Who wants to touch that? One inflammatory remark and her roommate's got me by the balls [ifl had some (of my own that is)] for eternity. Overall, if you 're in sloth-mode, this disk is highly attractive. ynonna has a strqpg voice and vision - she's already proved herself in a duo. And she does have the strength to float alone, but her first effort 0 leaves a bit to be desired.

Paula Poundstone breezed into Denver last Friday, opened her satchel and let loose with a barrage of hilarious stories reflecting her unique views on politics, movies and current events. The almost packed house was bristling with excitement once Poundstone kicked off her set. She didn't just jump right into an outlined routine, but warmed the crowd, talking about our gym, Denver and her flight, before leaping into political subjects. Why is it that every time a political candidate fesses up to previobs drug use, they say they experimented? "Unless there's a lab coat and data, it is not an experiment." Poundstone keeps up with political happenings and has some very strong views, but sometimes it isn't the issues that catch her attention. While on the topic of public figures, Poundstone questioned court-ordered punishments for celebrities: Rob Lowe's punishment had nothing to do with his offense, videotaping sex with minors. His sentence? Visiting high schools to talk about drug abuse. ''What's be gonna say?" Poundstone asked "'Hi, I'm a big, giant f--up and instead of going to jail, I said I'd come ta1k to you kids."' Poundstone also harped on the recent wave of feminism spawned by the movie Thelma & Louise. "'Ibey shot a man and robbed a store. That is not feminism, it's crime." "I am Little Miss Dissonant tonight, aren't I," Poundstone said before continuing. "I think there are a bunch of women trying to bring down the human race." Poundstone covered everything from pop-tart injuries to water skiing-:- "I think

it's at least worth a mention that water is going to shoot up your butt, don't you?" to banking. "I don't have a savings account because I don't know my mother's maiden name," she said. "Every couple weeks I go in and guess." Halfway through the set, Poundstone turned and caught a glance at her shadow, shocked at how flat her 'do had become. "Why didn't you tell me I had flat hair?" Poundstone has the ability to touch the crowd and make all people feel like she's talking to them individually. Especially the two girls in the front row, both proud Arapahoe Community College students, one of whom couldn't remember what she was studying. "Apparently they have no expectations over at Arapahoe," the comedienne quipped. The other student, a baking major, couldn 'tremember what she baked. but did remember that she went grocery shopping and bought "everything." "You bought everything?" Poundstone asked incredulously. "Well, that's crazy talk! How did you get it home? 1be economy should be booming now thanks to that Arapahoe student." Before she left, Poundstone thaoked the surplus of security for protecting her from a possible riot. "What were they thinking? I just tell my little jokes. I almost feel like I should kick up a ruckus just to give you something to

do." Special thanks to MSCD Student Activities for all your help this year. It's been

fun.

Camping, meals catered by Pour la France, a Fat Tire Classic T-shirt, a live band, beer and toilets and showers are all free. And the Red Cross provides mechanical assistance, sag wagons, medical support, trained guides and course marshals. The ride comprises 50.5 miles with nine optional technical loops for the willing (Goliath-types) circulating back to camp daily. The first day, the 28.5-mile loop maps through Morse Pass and returns on the Tipperary Creek trail. Day two, the 22-mile route follows Corona Pass, heads north to Devil's Thumb and takes the Fawn Creek Trail back to Winter Park. To prepare forthe event, Lenny Quercioli, first aid/CPR specialist for the Red Cross, recommends mountain (off-road) training once a week to avoid possible altitude problems, stocking up on high-carbo-

THE METROPOLITAN

April 24, 1992

EDITORIAL

Farewell to The Metropolitan, and thanks Lawrence Jones Editor

Editor's log: stardate 4-24-1992 This is the last issue of The Metropolitan this year and it is time to turn over the ship to a new captain. It is traditional that the outgoing editors use their last editorial to say goodbye and thank everyone who has supported and helped them make it through the year. Who am I to fight against tradition? I have had an incredible opportunity as editor of The Metropolitan. I have learned more about newswriting, newspapers and MSCD than I ever thought I could. I have had the satisfaction of seeing a good newspaper be produced every week and I know I couldn't have done it alone. My greatest thanks go to my wife. She supported me when I applied for the editor's position last year and has continued to support me through all the trials and the stress I have gone through in the past year. Without her, none of it would have been possible. To her go my eternal thanks, devotion and love. This past year, I have met so many talented people that I have learned to respect very highly. Above and beyond my own personal staff, I gotto know those people who support and run the Office of Student Publications. These people make The Metropolitan possible. The first is Kate Lutrey, director. She has been with the Office of Student Publications for 10 years. She handles the business end, the politics, the information, the organization, advertising sales and everything that makes any publication possible. She has my respect and my thanks for all she has done for me. .When I began as editor, she was willing to take a very naive man and help him learn the business of putting out a paper. She is a blessing far this office and for The Metropolitan. I cannot thank her enough for all she has done for me and my staff. Gwen Estridge, office manager, made everything

go smoothly. Without her, we would have quickly dissolved into a maelstrom of chaos that would have produced nothing. She ran the office and the office staff efficiently and professionally. The Metropolitan owes her a lot. Her office staff, Pat, Syd, Kersten and all the others that have come and gone, helped make this place a friendlier work place. To you all, thanks. And then there is Rhona Lloyd, our art director and manager of production. Another individual without whom we would have been incapable of producing anything more than an amateurish newsletter. She has toiled long hours, suffered extreme stress, tolerated weirdness and wildness in her domain and taught me everything I know about a computer's ability to make dreams into reality. Rhona, thank you. Of course the paper would never have been possible without advertising. I want our advertising salespeople, Jennifer Esquivel and Alfonso Suazo (and Michael Jones who graduated in December), to know that I appreciate and respect all they did for us in the past year. Hell, you guys paid my salary. Finally, I arrive at my own staff. I received many accolades as editor this year, but none of them would have been possible without these people. They deserve a great deal of credit for all the work, devotion and long hours each of them gave me. I had an assistant editor, Todd Burgess, who was a great help to me until another paper snapped him up. To him, I wish the best success in the world. My copy editor, Allen Laychak, has helped us look good when we could not manage spelling words like "MSCD" and "academic." He has looked at more words than an encyclopedia writer and helped keep The Metropolitan reasonably error-free. (It would have looked a heck of a lot worse without you, Allen. Thanks.) As news ~ itQtJ had De.w ~vYl ~n. self-CQf'tfessed news junkie. She joined us in the middle of the year and overcame the obstacles and stress to perform wonderfully. Her devotion to this newspaper was second only to her devotion to her family. Bravo to you, Deanna. Kim Brown, as features editor, struggled to stretch her creative wings within the confines of a newspaper and did well. She brought the readers interesting teacher features and looked into areas you may have never seen before. Thanks, Kim.

What can I say about my sports editor, Will Hinton. He managed to create the most-read sports section The Metropolitan has ever had. His columns were more popular than Woody Paige, and better written for that matter. Will, thank you, for being my sports editor and for being my colleague. I hired an editorial assistant this semester, one Sylvia Lei. She worked as Allen's assistant, catching the many errors that the rest of us managed to work into our copy. She is a great copy editor - not bad for someone whose native language is German. She was a great addition to the staff and we all enjoyed working with her, even if we didn't always understand her, nor she us. And thanks to my photo editors, Laura GraggToma and S. Elliott Fey. You two taught me to see the world in a more beautiful wasy. Thank you. As for our staff writers, Barry Tobin, Martin Rush and Philippe Marquis, you guys made the paper possible. When the chips were down (boy, don't you hate a cliche) you were able to cover our butts and cover the story. Barry, you have grown with The Metropolitan this year and done wonders. Martin, you came in as the new kid and proved you belong with a professional staff. Philippe, your youth, energy and talent will serve you well as it did us. To all of you, good luck and thanks. There are so many others to mention here. I could take up this entire paper just thanking them and sharing my final thoughts. However, I doubt that you readers really have that much patience. So, to wrap up: Thanks, Jack, for bringing more complainers into my office than anyone else, they deserved every blow. Thanks to Thomas Brewer, JoAnn Saker, Chip Wiman, Tom Mestnik and the entire faculty and student body of MSCD for giving me something to put in the newspaper. For my fillal wOtd, some a<ilW:e andrroemmentvu1 since this will be the last: President Brewer, talk"more' to your students; JoAnn Saker, start giving a damn about the people you serve instead of the almighty dollar that ye ur organization seems to worship; Chip Wiman, fight for us as trustee; Tom Mestnik, pick your battles well and win them; student government, commit yourselves to being examples of good government so that we can be proud. Hasta la Vista, Baby.

LETTERS Part-timers want equity Editor,

•

Perhaps because part-time students are so busy with double lives of working and putting themselves through school, few have spoken out about the inequity of the current tuition assessment. We would like to give our perspective. We both work full-time and are each carrying 1O credit hours this semester. We pay the same amount as full-time students, who will finish their schooling in four years, while ours will require three or four additional semesters of p.ttendance and tuition. Because we earn money, we are noteligibleforfinancial aid. We do not feel we can give up certain responsibilities in order to attend school full-time. This does not mean our education is any less important or necessary to us than that of full-time students. It does mean, however, that we do not have time to picket and protest for equity . • Just because circumstances dictate that we cannot attend full-time, we don't feel we should subsidize those students fortunate enough to have found a way to attend full-time. Almost half of MSCD students are part-time, and we do seem to be subsidizing the slight majority. President Brewer is right. This is indeed unfair to part-time students.

LETTERS

Parents should not be blamed for children in classroom Editor,

..'

In response to Christopher Raichart's letter in the April 3 issue of The Metropolitan: Mr. Raichart stated that he was never one to keep his mouth shut, and I would have to agree with him. While I understand his objections to other students having their children in the classroom with them, I question his need to blame the parent for this inconvenience. As much of a pain as this situation may be for him, it is much greater for myself and other parents who must, from time to time, bring our children to class with us. I would very much like to ask Mr. Raichart the following questions: Why would a person so intolerant of children choose MSCD? It is, after all, a college for the nontraditional student. That being the student with children. There are numerous other colleges that cater to the traditional student, where the need to put up with children in class would never arise. Why does he not question the ever more stringent attendance policies of the various departments that force a parent to bring the child to class with them, rather than miss the class and make arrangements with the instructor?

Since the incident doubtlessly occurred during the child's spring break, why not question the schools foolish policy of scheduling our spring break a week off of the public schools'? After all, many students have children in the public schools. Thus they can do little more during their break than sit home and try to plan what they will do with their children the following week when they must go to school while their children are out. As for laying the blame for the situation on "irresponsible" wives, husbands, etc., perhaps he should move into the real world. The job of parenting involves being the best person you can be. When one avenue is shut down due to the economy, layoffs, poor decisions or anything else, the last thing to do is lie down and die, so as not to inconvenience persons such as Mr. Raichart. So Christopher, I would have to say, deal with it or leave. There are many schools where you would be welcome, but people with children would not. So if you can't cope with the situation here, I suggest you transfer to one of them. And as my ever wise old GreatGrandma used to say, "Don't let the door hit ya in the ass on the way out!"

Bradley Edison, MSCD student

White-male discrimination is a white-male fantasy Editor,

In an editorial in last week's Met, Eric Simon makes the common mistake of referring to "our dubious record regarding equal rights" as a thing of the past. He states, "women and minorities have been subjected to intolerable and inhumane treatment throughout the ages.· This argument, that America is now freerlr.runJnstitutianalized racism a1W1h~t white males·are how suffering from "reverse aisci'imination" is the driving force behind the David Duke and Pat Buchanan campaigns. (The Bush administration is attacking welfare recipients and affirmative action on these grounds.) Jeff Cohen of Extra Magazine points to a recent segment of ABC's Primetime Live that shows just how alive and well racism in America really is. Primetime Live aired an experiment where they tested for racial discrimination using hidden cameras. Cohen states how they selected two clean-cut university types with similar backgrounds, one white and one black. They sent them out to apply for the same jobs with the same employers, to apply for apartments with the same landlord, to seek help from employment

agencies and even to buy used cars. The hidden cameras were there to record what happened. At every single institution the black man was discriminated against. Cohen explains how: "In the used-car lot he was told the interest rate was higher. He was told the price was higher. There wasn't one institution that treated the two equally." Primetime Live finished the show by sending the two actors onto the street in front of the. AB@lstudiG to hM a-... lhe cabs consistently drove pasrthe black'' lrian t8 pick up the white man Those who believe that white males are discriminated against are playing into the hands of the elite policy makers who wish to continue their positions of power and privilege by dividing the American people. If Eric Simon and others like him would take off their blinders thatthe Bush administration has put into place they would see the growing racism, sexism and class oppression which exists in all segments of American society. As Cohen said, "If there was more reporting of this kind (Primetime Live) on national TV, it would do a lot to debunk the nonsense that there is rampant discrimination against white males."

Students must fight to pass Clean Air Act for Colorado Editor, Last month, Mexico City had to close down due to poor air quality. This seems almost absurd here in Denver. On high-pollution days all we have to do is not burn any wood and try not to drive as much. Can you imagine having to close Denver until the air was once again breathable? Some legislators and industry leaders obviously can't, otherwise they wouldn't be trying to block efforts to pass strong clean-air legislation. They seem to feel that since the air quality in Colorado isn't already as bad as it is in other states, or even Mexico City for that matter, we don't need tough clean air laws. The fact is, 1O million pounds of toxic material are dumped into Colorado's air every year, and only seven of those chemicals are currently regulated. If that's not something to worry about I don't know what is. In order

to prevent Colorado's fate from mirroring Mexico City's we need to enact tough clean-air legislation that provides for: 1.) Tough enforcement and criminal penalties for industry polluters who knowingly endanger the public health. 2.) An aggressive timetable for regulating the several thousand toxic chemicals that are currently not covered by the Federal ·c1ean Air Act. The Colorado Clean Air Act will enact the Federal Clean Air Act and will make it stronger by including the above provisions. So join fellow students on Earth Day, April 22, signing the clean-air petition to qualify the Colorado Clean Air Act as a ballot initiative in the upcoming November election, and help Colorado breathe a little easier.

THEMETROPOLITAN

Student shines on downtown Denver stage Katarina Ahlfort The Metropolitan -

Marla, 22, pops a Starmint in her mouth and smiles at the camera. Dressed casually in her tight, black cat suit, she sits back, trying to relax between shows at the A venue Theatre in Denver. This particular afternoon, Marla will be on stage twice. In one of the plays she is Snow White, and in the other she portrays a "colored girl who has considered suicide." "When the director of Sn0w White Revue saw me act in For Colored Girls, he thought I'd make a great Snow White," she says. "He wanted to show the audience that Snow White's character doesn't necessarily have to be white." The theater on East 17th Avenue is small, alternative and well-established on the local playhouse scene. Next door is Josephina's Mexican restaurant from which traces of piano music and a taco scent can be detected during the plays. Marla stretches her arms and smiles in front of a lit-up vanity mirror, complaining about a "way too busy schedule." Since the beginning of the year, she has acted in two plays, giving five performances a week. For the past three months there have been a lot of rehearsals. "Unfortunately, we don't get paid too much," Marla points out, while putting on extra eyeliner.

During a Thursday night, when about 20 people usually show up in the audience , the owner of"the theater takes half of the ticket money and the cast gets to split $100. Marla has lived all her life in Denver. Her theater interest came to life in high school, where she was

encouraged and supported in her acting aspirations by a drama teacher. Marla portrays characters of young girls in the two productions at the Avenue Theatre. Her favorite roles are different. "I prefer to play the 'femme fatale,' like Theodora in Haunting of Hill House," she says. "But it's good not to fall into a certain niche of roles." Aside from theater roles, M_arla plays four instruments (flute, oboe, English horn and piano). She speaks three languages other than English (German, Spanish and Persian}, and next year she will finish a degree in anthropology at MSCD. "I'm not sure of what I'll do after graduating. Right now, it's a tossup between sing-

ing and anthropology," she says. " I want to do field work with ethnic groups and work abroad. I enjoy different cultures." If acting or anthropology doesn't bring Marla overseas, she has yet one more skill to fall back upon - she designs jewelry. Her colorful earrings, necklaces and bracelets, made of beads, glass and metal, are already in high demand among her friends and family, and Marla has no problems finding people to buy her artwork. Marla has more fortes and creativity than most people could ask for. But, if she could make one wish, what would that be? "I'd like some free time!" she exclaims, flashing off a snow-white smile under her · 0 black hat.

'The Player' masterpiece of satire, thrills, laughs Hero Montilla Movie Critic

The Player, directed by Robert Altman (M*A*S*H, Vincent & Theo) , is a fascinating amalgam of the tastiest of elements. Nothing could be finer in this representation of contemporary Hollywood and the insipid masters of its games. Enter Griffin Mill (Tim Robbins), senior vice president of a major Hollywood studio. From the looks of it, he has it made. He spends his days schmoozing with the stars and parking his Range Rover at various hot spots around town. Unfortunately, life's not as easy as it looks. Mill has some serious problems. An expert at second guessing office politics, Mill fears losing his job to an ambitious and equally maneuvering executive, Larry Levy (Peter Gallager). Notonlythat, but an anonymous and vengeful writer is harassing Mill with hateful messages and death threats that come to him via post cards and the fax machine (he has one in his car). As an executive who is usually rock solid, Mill begins to lose his cool, and this sends him on a precarious mission to reconcile his irksome situation. His adventure

begins and it's littered with surprises. The Player, based on the novel by Michael Tolkin, is ultimately a satire on Hollywood lifestyles that never fails in its spontaneous occurrences. Director Altman tended his garden well, and every detail is paid careful attention from tqe actors to the cinematic contribution. The film begins with a consecutive eightminute shot that creates the zig-zag and energetic mentalities of Hollywood moguls. It is tricks like these that make this interpretation convincing. Also true to life are the countless number of appearances by stars such as Angelica Houston, Burt Reynolds and Julia Roberts. No single word can describe The Player. It is a mystery, a thriller, a comedy and a satire. One word would not do it justice. Mastery of films like The Player are rare, but it makes up for all the trips to those other, unworthy films that are regurgitated yearly. Even those that are eluded by some of the intonations in the movie will find it enjoyable. The Player provides the perfect wrap-up to any end-of-the-semester blues. It is an uncompromising masterpiece that may prove to be one of the year's best. 0

Robert Klimek (standing right) directs the Metro On The Mall choir. A long, high, goblet-shattering note sung by the group causes Klimek to pause. " Well, my glasses are OK," Klimek says jokingly. Although music reading skills are helpful prerequisites for the chorus, M'Lisse West, 41, a postal service employee, joined with no prior group singing experience. She confesses that after three semester with the mall singers, she still can't read music, but likes to sing. " I stay a beat behind everyone else," West says, adding that she will continue with the chorus "as long as they put up with me." Most likely, they will. There are missed pitches and stray notes throughout the rehearsal, but Klimek uses humor to gently correct any problems. Sometimes the joke is on him. During one song, Klimek spends several minutes explaining a tricky rhythm pattern, then he shows the singers bow he plans to conduct it. A frustrated tenor shouts, "You direct it - we'll w atcb," and the group roars with laughter. Klimek, 41 , teaches in MSCD's music department, and is in his third semester as Metro on the Mall chorus director. He is planning two end-of-semester concerts for the group, one "serious" and one for fun. Klimek 's chorus members are quick to sing his praises, as quick as to get to a punch line. When asked what he likes best about being in the group, Chris Pitchford, MSCD music major, says: "Working with Bob Klimek." What's the worst thing about being in the group? As Pitchford hesitates, another member within earshot doesn' t miss a beat. "Working with Bob Klimek!" he quips. 0

Lisa Lee Perry The Metropolitan Talk about nostalgia. A Metro on the Mall rehearsal brings back memories of any high school choir. There are rows of folding chairs, a trusty accompanist playing a tired-looking piano, and of course, there are singers warming up with tried-and-true arpeggios. Except in this chorus, some of the singers are older than the director. Metro on the Mall singers range in age from early 20s to late 50s. They are primarily professional workers - nurses, computer operators and bankers - with a sprinkling of students. Diverse they may be, but all share a desire to turn little black notes and confusing hieroglyphic-like symbols into music. For about 60 chorus members, the music starts at high noon every Friday just off the 16th Street Mall. For those who arrive early, there's iced tea waiting to quench thirst and rev up vocal chords. Lunch is sacrificed, but no one seems to notice. Or do they? Their first warm-up is sung using the word "yum." Business suits and sweats. Tenors and sopranos. Gifted voices and shower singers alike blend together well in the downtown group. Most say they' re in the group just because they like to s ing . Diane Carabello, 45, explains why she's a chorus member. "With all the working people in the group, it doesn't sound threatening," she says. Indeed, chorus director Robert Klimek runs a non-threatening rehearsal. He's fastpaced and efficient, but he has time for fun.

~i· I'm a junior at MSCD. I have met a lot of { wonderful friends, have had a lot of fun, and have done very well in all of my classes. Things 4 have been great, up until now. f My parents are paying my tuition and have t been generous in helping me with finances and f giving me a lot of flexibility so that I can focus :' my attention on school. Since tuition is going t up next year, they requested I take classes this summer to save some money. I agreed that this ~~. would be a good idea so I worked out a summer / class schedule and have put my mind into a ·'l summer school mode. The arrangement also :\ means that I will be eligible to graduate next } May. { My parents have been planning a big family .[i reunion for next summer. Since I will be graduating earlier, my parents have decided to { schedule it so that the entire family can r participate in the celebration of my "big" day. ;;. There will be several families coming from ::: other states and they have already submitted :> their requests for vacation time. My parents have also reserved a site for all of us and have ,,, secured the catering and amenities required for .{ the event. They have paid the deposits and it is :,, all systems go. Although this seems a little :\ extreme, I feel very happy and honored that '\ they are so proud and supportive of me. During { the last couple of weeks something has come up to change all of this. k My best friends have decided to go on a long 1. trip this summer to the Southwestern States and Mexico and, of course, they want me to join .( them. They have been researching travel ( packages and have come up with some ~';. fantastic deals. The plans are to travel by car 1J and spend about six weeks seeing the sites.

SPORTS From the cheap seats: a one-man peanut gallery

Last minute opinions and highlights for 1991-92 Will Hinton Sports Editor

Like the Roman Coliseum, the Cheap Seats will never die, they ' ll just deteriorate and get ugly as they grow old, becoming a historical eyesore. Just kidding, this is the last edition and with it this trivial sports column will mercifully be put to rest. However, before I go, I'm a gonna shower you with my opinions -which are actually facts since I'm always right - one more time. A Spurs-of-the-moment congratulation to Jerry Tarkanian. Now that an 18-year witch hunt has finally forced you from the college ranks, Tark, you have moved on to the greener pastures in which you belong. If the NCAA doesn't want its all-time winningest coach (percentage wise), and a 32-year bench veteran, screw 'em. I think you 'II find NBA Commish David Stern, the greatest sports organizer-marketer ever, more understanding than Tricky Dick Schultz and Robert Maxon ... The 20-4 butt wboopin' put on the 'Pokes from Wyoming April 15 has vindicated the MSCD baseball team (24-19) in this sportswriter' s twisted mind. Forget the disappointing prelude to this shellacking and delve on the present. This is ob-so-sweet revenge for the 25-0 drubbing at the hands of Ow-boys last year. I've been ripping

these guys pretty bad this year, but tl;rat is because a great team was playing like a mediocre one. Now the greatness has emerged, and this old-fashioned branding of WYO is the perfect way to be remembered in the Cheap Seats ... Here are my top- I 0 MSCD sports memories from 1991-92: 1) MSCD men's hoops vs. USC (first game) - Simply put, the best basketball game I have seen in my three years at MSCD. The Roadrunners lost 92-90, but it was an unbelievable game. 2) Women's basketball running away with CAC title - Just two years after posting an 11-16 record, Darryl Smith and the ladies in blue did an about face, setting the school record for wins (24-3) and winning their first conference title ever. 3) Women's hoops being denied a bid to NCAAs - Politics and jealousy denied the women a trip to the NCAA regionals despite having one of the best records in the nation, more proof that play on the court has little to do with the final outcome in college basketball. 4) Rusty Befus' 40th dong- MSCD' s all-time home run leader became the first man to reach the 40-homer plateau in style, hitting a grand slam against rival Regis University, a fitting scenario for the greatest power-hitter ever to wear the Navy and Columbia blue. 5) Ralph Rivers becoming MSCD's all-time scorer - This just goes to show

that hard work and desire can pay off. I've always been in awe of Ralph as a player, but now that I know him, I'm in awe of him as a person. 6) MSCD vs. USC (second game) This time the 'Runners won, and in doing so, won their second straight CAC title in a rebuilding year, proving that Bob Hull is unparalleled as a coach in the CAC. 7) Volleyball's top-seven finish at the Air Force Premier tourney- In a field of 24 teams, this performance proved that the 'Runners could play with anyoody in the nation. The seventh place finish in what is considered the best Division Il tournament in the country sewed up an NCAA regional bid. 8) The aforementioned 20-4 belittling of Wyoming - In an otherwise down year on the diamond, the baseball team proved, in a huge way, that it is one of the best teams in D-Il when it plays like it can. 9) Rosie Durbin and Derek Scarth The future of MSCD soccer, these two freshmen proved to be offensive weapons who will wear out the nets before they are finished playing here. 10) The MSCD Sports Information Department - The difference between this unit and its peers in the CAC is like shopping at Macy's and Sanford and Son's. Greg Smith and Doug Montgomery run things more effectively than some Division I programs-with halfthe funding and onetenth the office space. Thanks, guys ...

For those times this summer when rain floods the golf course, a summer cold has you in bed and there's nothing but bowling on ESPN, here are 10 baseball movies worth the price ofrental: l)BullDurham (1988)-KevinCostner and Susan Sarandon star in the best baseball/ steamy sex movie ever made. 2) Pastime ( 1991) - A touching movie about baseball, but even more so, about life. 3) Long Gone ( 1987) - A comical depiction of life in the minors. 4) Field of Dreams (1989) - Though not entirely about baseball, this is a classic film about a classic game. 5) Eight Men Out (1988) - The 1919 Black Sox Scandal comes to life in this authentic film. 6) The Natural (1984) -A natural pick for any fan of hardball and nostalgia. 7) Major League (1989) - The most realistic baseball scenes ever filmed. 8) The Bad News Bears (1976) - So what if it's about little leaguers, it's still hilarious. 9) Bang the Drum Slowly ( 1973)-The Brian's Song of baseball, Robert De Niro stars in this tear-jerker. 10) The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars and Motor Kings (1976) - The Negro Leagues are revisited by Billy Dee Williams, James Earl Jones and Richard Pryor. And with that, I'll do my Comiskey Park impersonation and tear down the Cheap Seats. I'm outta here - GHOST. 0

Roadrunners--------------------------------------being drafted my junior year and I choked," "I was very nervous coming to college trom page 27 my voice in his dreams." Andy Dewett, baseball: Catcher Andy Dewett is closing in on the single season RBI record at MSCD. He picked up two RBI in a doubleheader against Colorado State University April 20 to bring his season total to 60. Two more ribbies, and the record goes to Dewett. Dewett, who is hitting .371, has traded the team batting lead this season with teammates Brendon Peach, Matt Santisteven and Rusty Befus, all of whom have hit around .350all year. The left-handed hitter leads the team in slugging percentage with a .669 average, home runs (8), doubles ( 11 ), and triples, (5). Throw in six out of seven stolen bases to complete the numbers game. But not everyone is impressed. "It's - not like I came here to get the Dewett RBI record," Dewett said. "This record just kind of came to me. We have some good hitters on this team, so I just try to relax and hit the ball. I've gotten my steals because other teams don't think I'm a threat. I have decent speed for a catcher, so when they fall asleep, I go." Helman is more forthright in his praise. "He's had a fantastic season for us," Helman said. "I consider him a pro prospect. If the major leagues aren't watching him, they're missing the boat." Dewett said he hit .360 his sophomore year and visions of major league baseball filled his dreams during his junior season. "I got all caught up in thinking about

he said. ("Choking" meant hitting .323.) "If something happens, it's going to happen. I'm not going to get all caught up in this drafting thing and then be let down like some guys do. I've made my plans for when school gets over." Dewett, 21, has been married to his wife, Jenessa, for one year and has a 9-month-old daughter, Alexa. "Between baseball, school and my daughter, I don'thave time for much else," be said. Helman said Dewett stands out on his team as a great player and a team leader. Patterson has thrown and caught baseballs with Dewett since playing with him on a summer league team in '88. "He's having a great season this year," Patterson said. "But he's always been consistent all the years I've known him. When I throw, he knows what I can and can't do. I give him a lot of credit for the things he's done here." Rosemary Aiello, women's tennis: Rosemary Aiello, a freshman on the women's tennis team, has a few things in common with Michigan's freshman Fab Five basketball team - unusual poise and talent. Aiello, playing in the No. 2 or 3 singles slot, has racked up an l l-2 record in her opening campaign for the Roadrunners. Head Coach Boots O'Brien knew what she was getting when she gave Aiello a scholarship. "I knew about her in high school," O'Brien said. 'Tm not surprised about her winning because she wants to win and plays to win." Aiello admitted to having some reservations about college tennis at first.

because everyone at this level plays well," Aiello said. I wanted to be on the lowest spot on the team at first so I could still win. I like to win." Aiello's record this season includes matches played in the three positions. "As long as I play, I don't care what position I play or who I play," she said. "I've played No. 2 to help our team out when we've been short-handed." O' Brien describes Aiello's game as an attacking serve and volley. O'Brien said Aiello has solid ground strokes, an intense will to win and a good work ethic. Aiello bad some reservations about attacking the net at first, but her competitive drive took over. "I used to hang around the baseline because I was scared to rush the net,"~he said. "I'll do anything to win the point fast, so I've been serving and volleying more. It's been working for me, but maybe I've been lucky." Aiello said her teammates have been supportive and that there wasn't any of the petty jealousies or grudges that divided her high school team. 'Tm really happy here," she said. "I could have gone to some other schools and tried out for their teams, but I think we have a great campus here." Aiello isn't sure where she'll be seeded for the CAC Championship Tournament. It just doesn't matter. "I think she'll do well in the CAC championships," O'Brien said. "Seeding doesn't matter to her because she plays the No. 5 seed just as bard as she plays the No. 1 seed. She doesn't worry about who'll she play, and neither do I." 0
