Mentoring program helps new student~. Brian Heider The Metropolitan

Making the transition between high school and college can be difficult. However, MSCD has begun the Student Development Center Mentoring Program to make the change easier. Dr. Susan Josepher, the program's advisory committee chair, said mentoring is a " people to people" program. "In the ' 70s , we had 5,000 students on campus," she said. "But

now, we have 17 ,000 students and you can get lost in the crowd. There is a lot of discomfort on this campus because there is a lot (of discomfort) in this country. And instead of pushing away, people should be reaching out," she said. Peggy WilJis, a peer advisor in the Student Development Center, said admirtistrators, staff and people from the private sector wilJ serve as mentors to help guide students through their academic careers. Martelle Chapital, director for the Student Development Center,

said so far 50 faculty members have signed up to be mentors. Willis stressed that the program is needed because new students need direction.

said that there are many communication problems between the different committees. When the new restaurants, Union Coffee and Tea Company and Tivoli Diner,opened Aug. 7, Soker said an actual lease had not yet been drafted, but that the coffee shop had signed a letter of intent and opened business on good faith. Aurari_a Board member, Betty Miller, also attended the meeting and spoke about Saker 's meeting with the Auraria Board. One of the Auraria Board's responsibility is to take all advisement and student concerns from these committees. Miller said Soker signed the leases under the Board's direction. "This is what the board told her to do," Miller said. "The board has the ultimate fiscal responsibility to pay off these bonds." The so-called short-term leases are referred to as interim leases meaning that the lease will terminate once construction on the Tivoli begins. Dates for construction have not yet been determined, and the move-in date has been extended until the spring of 1994.

.ill GRADUATING New accounting chair SENIORS AND ALUMNI • • • has ambitious plans ''' Looking for ProfessionalEmployment?

Patricia Straub •

Staff Writer

Since taking over as chair of the MSCD accounting department in June, Virginia Parker has had to juggle teaching two accounting classes, recruiting four new accounting faculty members and adjusting to administration duties. However, she has found time, with other accounting faculty members, to come up with plans for improvement. "We're thinking of great things for the department," she said. Parker intends to develop a newsletter for the department's 1,600 graduates. Accounting professor Ron Clute will edit the newsletter created to help build alumni relations and give the department and students more resources for internships and the new campus mentorship program. Parker received final approval for a continuing-education program for professional Certified Public Accountants(CPAs). The program would offer classes and workshops at MSCD for CPAs. Each year CPAs are required to take about 40 credit hours to maintain their certification. Accounting Professor Lee Pollart of the Colorado State Society of CPAs

will be in charge of that program. Parker will continue to teach two sections of advanced accounting this fall. " I've always loved teaching," Parker said, "but I've been teaching for 15 years, and I need something different." Parker said being chair is a tough and time-consuming job. Her duties involve salary administration, allocating funds for upcoming conferences and course scheduling. Parker received her Bachelor of Arts in psychology from the University of Tulsa, a Master of Arts in psychology from the University of Colorado at Boulder and a doctorate from the University of Colorado at Denver in Accounting. Parker has taught at MSCD and UCO since 1977.

Brewer stepping down as President to teach history Patricia Straub Staff Writer

After four years at MSCD, Thomas Brewer announced last month that he will retire as president of the college. Before he moves to Lakeway, Texas, a small town 25 minutes from Austin, Brewer will finish the 1992-1993 school year as president and then teach for several years at Metro. Brewer said he will teach history one semester a year beginning in the Spring of 1993. He will take a professional leave during the fall semester of 1993 , before returning to the classroom. Brewer regards among his best achievements: the Target of Opportunity Program that recruits minority faculty members, the planning office established in 1989; African American Leadership; Metropolitan State College Art Gallery; and The Capitol Reporter , a student internship newspaper that covers the state legislature.

He said, he is also th e only college president in the nation with his own talk show, known locally as "Denver Dialogue" and elsewhere in the state as "Colorado Conversations," which is recqrded at the Terra Centre. His greatest disappointmen is that community service was not introduced into the curriculum. "It's an idea that's time has come," he said. "It's part of a person 's liberal education. They should be exposed to the carin.g side of society." Born in Ft. Worth , Texas in 1932, Brewer received his doctorate in American business history at the University of Pennsy lvania in Philadelphia. He then taught history at the University of Kentucky, Iowa State and University of Toledo. It was at Toledo that he entered into his first administrative position , becoming the chair of the history department. After administrative positions with East Carolina University in North Carolina and the First Texas

He also has three grandchildren, but Brewer remark factitiously that their nine-year-old dachshund Holly is their child now. Brewer 's free time is spent

Police Briefs Purse thefts on campus Thieves July 27 hauled away $336 in stolen purses and contents from campus buildings. The thefts occurred in the Auraria Library, the North Classroom, West Classroom, and the Mercantile Restaurant. Two purses were stolen from desk drawers when staff briefly left the office. One purse was taken while its owner slept nearby. Thieves Aug. 6 struck again in the Library netting $260 in two stolen purses and contents . One purse and its contents was recovered minus the cash. Police said they have no suspects. Auraria Public Safety(APS) spokesman Jim Ferguson said thieves operate qllickly. "Please don' t leave personal items unattended for even a minute," Ferguson said.

Indecent exposure An MSCD student told APS Aug. 3 that a man exposed himself

in the Auraria Library. The woman told officers that she noticed a man staring at her through a bookcase. She walked past the man as she was leaving the library, she said, and saw that he had his genitals exposed; Officers conducted a search, but did not find the man.

Woman harassed in South Classroom A man approached a woman in South Classroom Aug. 5 and asked her if she was married. "Happily," the woman said. "That's OK," the man said. "I'll be your boyfriend. Someday we'll be married." When the woman insisted that it would never happen, the man gi;abbed her and kissed her on the mouth. He told her that he was a foreign national and his name was Julio.

The truth about Reaganomics: The Alllerica he left for us FRANKLY SPEAKING Shawn Christopher Cox

With the Republican National Convention in Houston this week, it will be easy for America to be fooled a fourth time. Americans have struck out with Ronald Reagan and have lost the game with Bush. Reagan's hypocritical speech Monday night would have made any sensible person sick. Reagan calling for a balanced budget amendment is like Richard Nixon still claiming he is not a crook. The Republicans reveled in Reagan as if he were God's gift to America, but some facts about the Reagan-Bush era need to be established. Here are just three issues. 1. The deficit and national debt. The national debt, or the total debt of America, is $4 trillion. That is $4,000,000,000,000. Under Reagan and Bush, the debt has more than quadrupled. The national debt was $785 billion when Reagan took office and when he left it was $2.2 trillion. It has increased to $4 tillion under Bush. Of course, Congress passes a budget and the

president signs it, but Reagan never called for or sent Congress a balanced budget. Sure, he cut taxes, but decreased much-needed social spending and increased the military budget. Bush's own budget proposal for 1992-93 would put the deficit at about $400 billion, yet Bush is also mouthing off about a balanced budget amendment. Instead of assaulting the Constitution, Bush could have given the Congress a balanced budget, however, he did not have the guts to do so. The interest owed for the national debt will be about $201 billion this year. 2. Jobs. The Reaganites will boast that between 1979 and 1989, the U.S. economy added 13.6 million full-time jobs. However, a further analysis is needed, as FORTUNE magazine has done for its Aug. 24 cover story by Brian O'Reilly. Of the created jobs, almost five million paid less than $13,000 a year, after adjusting for inflation. This is below the official poverty level for a family of four. Even though the economy added 3.5 million jobs that paid at least $39,000 a year during the 1980s and 2.1 million jobs that paid more than $52,000, as the article points out, "the center didn't hold." The median weekly wage for all workers actually dropped from $409 in 1979 to $399 in 1989 (1989 dollars). It is now down to $391 .

Additionally, the article said that real salaries for college graduates are down 3.1 percent from 1987 to 1991. Speaking of jobs, the Bush administration praises the 198,000 that were created in July. However, as John Crudele, syndicated financial columnist for the New York Post, writes, many of those jobs are temporary and not as_good as the jobs that were lost. "Working at a bungee jump doesn't qualify as a career opportunity." Bush really does not get it, like Reagan and his cronies never will as Reagan stood up one Sunday morning displaying the numerous jobs that were in the want ads. He should have lookeq at how much they paid. 3. Children. The Children's Defense Fund recently came out with a study that reveals children grew poorer in the 1980s. I thought our country prospered under Reagan? In 1979, 24.9 percent of children lived in families that were poor. In 1989, that figure was 28 percent. Moreover, 11.2 million children lived in families that earned below the poverty level ($13,000 for a family of four) in 1989. Also, of the 100 cities studied with at least a population of 100,000, child poverty rates increased in 84 of those cities. Prosperous? Thank you Ronald Reagan. One last question. How can you sleep at night?

It is adept at making itself look Barry Tobin good. JoAnn Soker, AHEC executive vice president, last year removed from her office-waiting room the copy of The Metropolitan that explained how she bungled a professor's request to investigate a burglary incident.

As students register for classes, tuition is substantially higher for those taking over 11 credit hours. MSCD does not have tuition by the credit hour in its fullest meaning, but it does have a version of it. If MSCD trully had tuition by the credit hour then each credit hour would cost $56. With the current rates, students are charged $20 per credit hour between 12 and 18 hours taken. In th is sense, MSCD's tuition rates are still under a window type of system between 12 and 18 credits. Chip Wiman and MSCD student government is to be commended for fighting against tuition by the credit hour and offering an amended version of it. If Tomas Brewer, president of the college, had his way, students taking 15 hours would have to pay $840 versus $732 they currently do .. However, without the amended version, students would still pay $622 for tuition for taking 1Oto 18 credit hours.' 路 Shawn Christop~er Cox

The Ayatollah, ex-Catholics--ten years after LOOSE CONNECTIONS Ed Kraus I'm back. In case you are part of the 100 percent of the student population who never heard of me, I last wrote for The Metropolitan in 1981 . While this is no big wow for your average studentnose high in registration, book buying and bill paying, it sure feels great to me. I used to poke allegedly funny fingers at Ron and Nancy, the Ayatollah, Jerry Fallwell, myself and any other silly thing the editor would allow, hence the name Loose Connections. Since George Foreman, Jimmy Connors and the Democratic Party have staged major comebacks, I figured ," Why not?" OK, the truth be told, I'm a total whiner who will spill his guts to anyone who will listen. So bombs away! It has been eleven years, twenty pounds and countless jobs since I last attended Metro and I have a confession (we ex-Catholics never quite escape the guilt, fear, or the lingo) I'm lost. I've had more jobs than the Fugitive. There are more ex's on my resume than a Harry Reems-Marilyn Chambers double bill. Even when I finally worked for myself I still hated the boss. But enough about the past, the important thing (for me anyway) is that we are all here and if you find it in your heart to use this column as bathroom diversion once in a while, I would be forever

grateful. With apologies to Dave L. and the thousand or so other writers who have ripped off his format, I humbly submit my Top Ten List of Reasons I Returned to Auraria: 1o. Thought I knew how to spell potatoe. 9. Phone registration lasts longer than 1-976LICK and is cheaper. 8. Better understanding of, "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer." 7. Never called dude anymore. 6. Tired of watching Norton Frickey ads. 5. Great chance to own part of that moneymaker Tivoli. 4. Thought statute of limitations up on my student loans. 3. Parking lot is a great place to pick up mountain bikes and car stereos. 2. Marvin Hamlish always makes me cry. 1. Only 115 credits needed to graduate. Ah, that felt great, like one c;>f the emotional burps I've been holding in for years. Now that the monkey on my back absconded with my pride and writer 's block, what do you say we spend the semester torturing metaphors and pissing off anyone who crosses our path? ·

Students snubbed by Tivoli Planning Committee Having been involved with the Tivoli Planning Committee since its inception, I am worried and frustrated with the most recent developments. I know the Auraria Higher Education Center (AHEC) administration is concerned with creating the most viable monetary outlet center capable of sustaining the lease payments and housing the best of what students need to enhance their educational experience. I know that the architect for the Tivoli, John Carney, and his company , Urban Design , are concerned with creating the most wonderful contribution to the campus since running water and electrjcity. I know that Student Services is concerned with ending up with the best facilities to serve students. I know that the students on the Tivoli Planning Committee are concerned with creating a worldclass student center that is supplemented and enhanced with retail outlets. So what is the problem? Trust. When "windows of opportunity" are respected more than students' opinions, trust is violated. When leases are negotiated that differ in the final reading than when introduced, trust is violated. I understand where JoAnn Saker, executive vice president of administration for AHEC, and Andy

Chitwood , general manager of the T ivoli, are coming from. I have worked with them for more than a year now trying to represent student interests and get the Tivoli off the ground. I would not want to be personally responsible to make the lease payments for the Tivoli, nor would I want to take the heat for pleasing or upsetting everyone involved. I am not an expert in retail or student centers. Neither am I an expert in group dynamics. However, I do understand that students want to be trusted to make informed decisions oased on accurate information. I know the students want to be a major force in the design of the final plans. I know the students involved right now want to be included in the final product of the Tivoli. To assume that what is best for the monetary end' of the Tivoli is best for the students may not be the right approach. The students involved in the Tivoli Planning Committee are angry, frustrated and confused. The administration is probably feel ing the same way. Every conflict that is not reserved merely puts every critical date further down the calendar. I suggest a spirit of compromise from not only the students involved, but from administrators as well.

Bungee jumping: a-wild ride for gonzo sportsters Kris Morwood Features Editor

It is 5 :45 a.m., still dark, and shadowy figures spread out the billowy material, which will enclose 90,000 cubic feet of cold and hot air, upon a dewkissed field. As they work, the sun begins to rise. And with it, the fabric swells gently as the air begins to fill its' center. As it slowly rises from the ground, the snowcapped mountains tower to the west and the giant orange sun blazes in the east. Gingerly you step out onto the platform as you look at the serene beauty that surrounds you, and all you can think is ...OH, MY, GOD! Bungee jumping, otherwise referred to as "Sucking air" is the latest craze for adrenaline junkies like myself, or even more

Investing in the best and safest equipment money can buy, Cohen is now the proud owner of a 30-ton hydraulic crane. "When you spend $60,000 on a crane, you learn to Love it," Cohen said affectionately of "The Beast," as he calls it. Boulder Bungee is a member of the North American Bungee Association (NABA). This association was created by owners of bungee jumping companies across North America to self-regulate themselves. The association developed

"All deaths, three, (two off cranes and one off of a balloon) were due to human operator error/,. Cohen said. "Boulder Bungee wants to keep its' perfect safety record.

fly if it looks at all unsafe. By now you either think I'm completely crazy or you can't wait to take the leap. To jump you must be 18 years old (due to insurance liabilities), fairly sane and very brave. Karen Thorpe, executive vice president for student affairs at MSCD said if the students want to try bungee jumping on campus, they must submit a petition with at least 30 signatures, and have a campus group sponsor the jump.j

Someday, perhaps , everyone reading this article will have in some way been touched by the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, more commonly known as AIDS. Perhaps it will be your sister, maybe your mechanic, even Y?ur child or it could be you. AIDS, as the slogan says, does not discriminate. The national Centers For Disease Control (CDC) defines AIDS this way:"TheHuman Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) destroys the white blood cells that keep the b_ody 's immune system in tact, weakening the system." In most cases, HIV

leads to the development of AIDS, and its related illnesses that cause death AIDS can na longer be misconceived as a plague that hit gays and intravenous drug users as punishment for their sins, but a real life epidemic that is affecting all our lives. The HIV virus to date, has been found in blood, semen, in lower

concentrations of vaginal fluids, saliva, urine, breast milk, menstrual blood and tears. The CDC reports the disease is changing a.""ld taking on new form~, becoming even more evasive and deadly by the day. Two months ago, no one was aware of a strain of HIV that may go virtually undetected by the standard HIV antibody

test. Two years ago, medical reports said there was no evidence that saliva or tears could transmit the virus. Today they say it is possible. So you say, Okay, I'll use a condom. But is that really enough? Condoms have been proven to be the most effective prevention against HIV infection, yet are not 100% effective. Latex condoms should be used at all times during sexual contact, 8.Iong with dental dams (for oral sex) and spermicides containing nonoxynol-9. AIDS has been shown to be transmitted through most sexual practices; oral, vaginal and anal, as well as through needle sharing, blood transfusions and mother to unborn child. So you think that your see AIDS page 18

It 's that time of·the year again, BACK TO SCHOOL! So, welcome and best of luck to all of you! During the next semester many of you will find that you may need to seek help or services of one type or another. While Metro offers many different services, it can be very confusing to know exactly where to go for help for specific concerns. An available remedy to the confusion is the Metro Connection s Program. We are student, faculty, and staff volunteers who have been nom in ated to the program as persons that are helpful and willing to listen and reach out to other s. This program focuses on the naturally occurring network of helping interactions on campus and provides a medium to facilitate these interactions between students, faculty, and staff. Our goals are to provide outreach to anyone at Metro having personal concerns and to help in finding appropriate resources. We also provide training and educational opportunities to members of the Metro community to enhance their natural helping abilities and to work towards making MSCD a community where all of us make genuine connections with each other. Our avenue of help that we provide is this weekly "advice" or " voice your concerns" column. It is devoted to providing information, suggestions, and referrals for questions and opinions that yo u submit. It also allows others in the Metro community to voice their comments regarding various issues and concerns that may be occurring on campus. The responses provided in this column are given by the Metro Connections staff and counselors at the MSCD Counseling Center. We are committed to researching and answering the questions you have. This may mean finding the "rig ht" person in the community and providing s ugge stion s where to find a n appropriate so urce of help and at other times we offer suggestions based on the exper ience and training of our MSCD counseling Center staff. Frequent concerns include time management, difficult relationship is sues, family conflicts, academic motivation i ss ues , financial d ifficulties, dealing with difficult people , decision-making problems , stress reduction, and many others. Whatever yaurs may be , let us help. Many found this column helpful last year. Knowing that there are people out there experiencing the same things we are (and are coping somehow!) is often helpful. Being able to· say whatever we feel while remaining anonymous can be a very beneficial outlet. Also, it is c omforting to get some distance from our problems by writing them down , sharing them, and gaining other perspectives. If you would like to s ubmit a question or a comment to this column, please drop it by the MSCD Counseling Center, located in CN 203. We DON'T publish names . If you would lik e a personal response, please in cl ude your name and phone number and we'll get back to you

clubs were exempted from ~he policy, causing students to respond, Tull said. Concerned students rallied and presented President Brewer with a list of requests addressing the issue. Forming a task force was one of the requests, Tull said. The 30-member task force is cochaired by Karen Thorpe, assistant vice president of student affairs, and Yolanda Ericksen, director of student activities. Thorpe said she is glad Brewer developed the task force because it will deal with policies that will help control discrimination. The mission of the task force, Tull said, is to study the concerns of the gay, lesbian and bisexual members of the MSCD community and to make recommendations on how to improve the campus atmosphere towards gays and lesbians. Thorpe and Ericksen invited people to become task force members based on the recommendations of administrators, students and faculty members. "We want to have people who are sensitive to the concerns of gays and lesbians," Thorpe said. One of the goals of the task force is to establish an office employing someone to act as an advocate for people associated with

Antoinette Vecchio The Metropolitan

A love song describes a relationship between a man and a woman. A health form asks for a spouse's name. A mother asks her grown son when he is going to get married and have children. These are heterosexist attitudes that need to be changed, said J . Davidson Porter, associate director of student activities. Heterosexism is the idea that all members of society are heterosexual, Porter said. "You don't ever think about the fact that other people are gay, lesbian or bisexual," he said. Porter is a member of the Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Task Force at MSCD. The group met for the second time Aug. 3 on campus. The newly organized task force, commissioned by MSCD President Thomas Brewer, was formed after students voiced disapproval over the college"s anti-discrimination policy, said task force member Tara Tull, coordinator of women's services for MSCD. The policy, issued by Brewer Feb. 20, prohibits college clubs from discriminating against gays and lesbians. However, ROTC and Teligious

any minority group, she said. The task force also wants to produce policies that acknowledge instead of discriminate against people with differing sexual orientation, Thorpe said. There are different levels of understanding about gay and lesbian c9ncems, Porter said, and invites all concerned students, especially heterosexuals~ to contact the task force with their comments and suggestions. While homophobia, the fear of homosexuals and their influence, is a concern among gay and lesbian people, Porter said, heterosexism is also a way of thinking that should be changed. The focus should not be on how to stop homophobia, he said., but on how heterosexism polices are viewed. For example, health and other forms ask for a spouses name, Porter said. The forms should ask for a partner's name. Heterosexism also occurs on a more personal basis, task force student member Jody Andrade said. People fail to recognize homosexual relationships, she said. People don't think of sending anniversary cards to gay or lesbian partners like they do for heterosexual partners.

Veteran cast unable to save 'Vampire Slayer' Ir':: ·

Hero Montilla The Metropolitan

First mention of " Buffy the Vampire Slayer" came to me via some gossip publication which linked Paul Reubens, aka Pee Wee Herman, to its ensemble cast of characters. Innately sympathetic to the fallen Pee Wee, and respectful of his Long standing record of comic talent, I eagerly awaited any reappearance by Reubens, hoping the transformation from his Pee Wee persona would be relatively painless. A travesty it is then to find Reubens stationed in this miserable film as Amilyn, apprentice vampire. If this measures Reubens 's progress on the comeback trail, then he is greatly in need of some new transportation. Perhaps flirtation with scandal creates marked men. Other actors in this film suffer similar fates. Rutger Hauer, who was so wickedly seductive in "Blade Runner", falls short of being potent as Lothos, leader of the

Despite the spitting, it's a good job One Metro student pays the school bill in a different way Keith Coffman The Metropolitan

graduate of Arvada West High School began umpiring about six years ago after attending Joe Brinkman 's School of Umpiring in Cocoa Beach, Fla. Pospisil worked three minor league (Californian. Pioneer and Northwest leagues, where the Bend Ore. Rockies compete) baseball leagues before returning to Colorado.

The stocky man, clad in blue, strode through the darkened parking lot and reflected on his job. ·Tve been spit on, my life threatened, my car threatened and been pushed a few times. That's when your partner has to help you out." Who is tpis man in blue? An inner city cop trying to keep the 'I've been spit on, my life peace in a violent urban setting? threatened, my car No. It's Bill Pospisil, suburban threatened and been pushed softball umpire and current student a few times.' at Metro. _ Bill Pospisil Pospisil, 24, umpires softball games for leagues throughout the He gave up umpiring Denver area six nights a week. He estimates he works between 20 and professional baseball to complete 25 games per week. Pospisil also his education at Metro. "It was either commit to six to officiated adult flag football and basketball games during those eight more years in umpiring or start a new career. I'm a physical seasons. This night, he had just finished education major and hope to teach his fifth softball game of the and coach football," Pospisil said. evening-a battle for the basement in The spitting incident happened the Broomfield Men's Competitive one night in Boise, Idaho. "There was an appeal play when B League. a runner left third base before a fly "I umpire them all: men's, I called him out on ball was caught. women's, co-ed, competitive and the appeal and it cost the home team recreational," he said. "It's a good two runs. They were pretty mad," he way to make money while I go to understated. It was then that the college." Boise manager spit on Pospisil and The Omaha native and 1986 was given the obligatory heave-ho.

Despite the expectorating occurrence, Pospisil said most of the abuse heaped upon him comes in the amateur games he works. "In baseball, it is more subtle. The players know there is a commissioner and the possibility of fines and suspensions. That doesn't · exist in the softball leagues." Once, while working a flag football game in Arvada, Pospisil was shoved and threatened by two irate players. The police were called to break up the skirmish and the malcontents were banished from the league. Aside from the money, usually $15 to $20 per game, why would someone subject himself to the type of treatment usually reserved for smokers and ex-husbands? "I like being around sports and athletes," Pospisil said, graciously giving the benefit of the doubt to the participants in the game just completed. "Ninty-five percent of the people who play are all right. It's just every now and then there will be somebody obnoxious." It's after 11 p.m. and Pospisil heads for his truck in the parking lot, presumably free of car bombs. Does he play softball himself? "Nah," he said grinning. ··1 don't have the time."

Welcome, sports fans, to Sports 101 Mike Robuck Sports Editor

I'm going to take a little space here to chalk the base paths of sports at Metro. Call it Roadrunner Sports l 01 . The teams won' t be in action until the first week of September, so a little background is in order. Let's start with how a long-tailed, crested, desert cuckoo bird became the college's mascot. Back in the archaic 1970s our institution wasn ' t the greenbelt you see today. Students didn't sprawl or play volleyball on the ~- grass because Metro was mostly a couple of buildings surrounded by busy streets. The students scurrying across the streets were dubbed "Roadrunners." So that's how another legend was born. Athletic events have taken place here since the school's inception in 1965, but alum and Assistant Sports Information Director Doug Montgomery said a rebirth of sports began in 1986 when Metro joined the NCAA's Division II program. There are ten teams at Metro:

IESEIVE

Dominic Chavez/The Metropolitan

The men's soccer team stretches under the eyes of new coach Al Ashton. women's and men's soccer, women's and men's tennis squads and women's volleyball, men's and women's basketball teams posting their best basketball, men's and women's season records to date. swimming, women's and men's tennis The Roadrunners compete in the and men's baseball. Colorado Athletic Conference, which Last season nine of these teams is in its third year, against Regis had winning records with the women's University, University of Colorado-

OFFICERS'

TllllllG

Colorado Springs, Denver University, Colorado Christian College and the University of Southern Colorado. This season, men's basketball, women's volleyball and basketball are the only sports with full-time coaches. The rest of the coaches have some similarities in common with their athletes: they hold other jobs and are motivated by their commitment to their respective sports. "Our coaches are a seriously dedicated bunch of individuals," Montgomery said. "Athletes and coaches here have a lot of other commitments, but we've been extremely successful with our programs." As with any ~ coorse, Roadrunner Sports 101 has sought to inform. And, similarly, with some courses, there is an underlying moral issue. The issue here is fan support. "I realize that when people leave the campus it's hard to come back," Montgomery said. "But I would tell students that they're paying for part of athletics here and the events are free to them. I think that sports can be a good part of the college experience."
