Professor Stays Woman's B-Ball Takes CAC On Staff Despite Arrest Record Jesse Stephenson

1·

THE METROPOUTAN Despite an arrest record and failure to complete a teaching assignment, an MSCD professor continues to teach because of special provisions outlined in his contract. Moses Eze, an assistant professor of Mechanical Engineering Technology, was arrested three times in 1993 and charged with violation of a restraining order as well as disturbing the peace and threatening to injure a person or property, according to Denver court records. He was sentenced to 180 days jail in September for violating a restraining order from his estranged wife, the records state. Larry Keating, chairman of Electronics Engineering Technology and former chairman of Mechanical Engineering Technology, said Eze taught' about one-third of the Fall 1993 semester and part-time instructors taught his courses for him after his arrest. Eze received full pay for the semester, he said. Eze refused to comment to The Metropolitan. In a victim impact statement, Eze's estranged wife said she and her children are "very fearful of Moses and his Eze anger" and she has had to keep her address and phone number confidential to avoid contact with him. In a letter to Eze dated Oct. 15, 1993 from Bill Rader, Dean of Professional Studies, Rader said Eze violated the MSCD Handbook for Professional Personnel by "not directly notifying the department chair of his absence" and also lying about the reason for his . absence. According to the letter, Eze asked a friend to notify Keating that he would not attend classes Sept. 22 due to his daughter's illness. He later told Keating that his friend's statement was untrue and the real reason for his lack of notification was that he was in police custody and was permitted only one phone call. Rader stated in the letter that further violation of the handbook will not be tolerated and will be considered failure to fulfill the agreement to reinstate Eze's contract. The letter also states that Eze submitted a written plan to make up the classes he missed. Eze is now required to adhere to special stipulations in his contract at MSCD in order to retain his position at the colJege.

LegisI ature Death _of_a_P_a. . . . .r_r_ot~~~~ . Considers Secret Searches Bill Donna Hickey

""-

THE METROPOLITAN The Colorado Legislature is considering a bill that will allow portions of college presidential searches to be done in secret. Testimony was heard on the bill March 7 in the Senate State Affairs Committee. The bill passed the House in its original form, which would have covered all executive positions in the state. But after debate, the Senate committee amended the bill. The bill originally stated that in searches for all executive state positions, candidates could choose to keep their names secret. Candidates would be named only when they became finalists or at least 21 days prior to a final selection. MSCD assistant professor of journalism James J. Brodell testified at the committee hearing that the bill goes against state laws. "This bill ... is tacit admission that many elements of the state government have not been following the Jetter and the spirit of the open records Jaw," he said. The bill was written by Brodell the State College System with consultation by the Colorado Press Association, said Pam Wagner, legislative liaison for the System. The System does not believe it is in the public's best interest for all the names of candidates or applicants to be open to the public, she said. Retiring System President Glenn Burnham also testified and said the public does not wish to know of all the applicants. "How interested is the public in 90 to 100 names (of applicants)?" he said. In addition, Burnham said possible publicity discourages worthy candidates from seeking high positions. He said he knows of at least nine people did not apply for top jobs in higher education for fear that publicity would affect them in their present job. The State College System and The Metropolitan were in a legal battle last year during the MSCD presidential search because Burnham tried to obtain a court order to prevent The Metropolitan from gaining access to search records. In a memo to The Metropolitan Feb. 12, 1993, Burnham said "In my opinion, disclosure of the records' contents would do substantial injury to the public interest" The case never reached a judge because The Metropolitan published the names of the Colorado applicants after they were obtained from a source. Afterwards, the state allowed The Metropolitan and others to view the full applications. Sen. Tilman "Tillie" Bishop, R-Grand Junction, cosponsor of the bill, said he was surprised at the controversy and did not try to second guess the outcome of the bill. • "If this bill doesn't make it, I won't lose any sleep," he said.

Hit-and-Run Kills MSCD Student at Stapleton Kim Young

THE METROPOLITAN If there were only one word to describe the state of mind of 27-year-old MSCD student John Lewallen Babcock before he died, it would be "content." "I have learned to be grateful to existence," Babcock wrote in a paper on goals for MSCD Professor Cecilia Box. "It gives us all more than we deserve. No complaints here." Two weeks later, on Feb. 25, Babcock was killed in a hit-and-run accident at Stapleton International Airport. His body

Babcock

was found at 1 a.m. the next day by airport personnel on the fourth level parking lot, 126 feet from his parked truck, Denver police said. Police are investigating his case. So far, no witnesses have come forward. Babcock was born March 23, 1966 in Muskogee, Okla. He came to Denver soon after graduating from the University of California in 1990 with a degree in Psychology. Friends say he hadn't really planned to move to Denver, but this is where his car broke down, so this is where he decided to stay. He entered the teaching

certification program at MSCD and was in the middle of his last semester before student teaching when he was killed. Although he planned to teach on the High School level, he also wanted to be a writer. He kept a daily diary, in which he recorded facts and observations about the people he met, as well as his own shortcomings, in an effort to improve his relationships and become a more virtuous person, his mother said. "I'm part lrish, so it's safe to say I'm half drunk, lonely and horny," Babcock

Student Seeks Compensation for Son's Injuries in Car Crash Claudia Hibbert

THE METROPOLITAN

THE METROPOLITAN While most MSCD students are preparing for spring break and summer vacations, freshman biology major Regina Barnes prepares for a court battle against two insurance companies to pay medical bills for her 2-yearold son. Barnes' son, Quinn, was in a car accident Feb. 11 in Cheyenne, Wyo. that left him brain damaged and needing ·constant care. Quinn was in the intensive care unit at Children's Hospital for two weeks, now he is in the rehabilitation ward. Quinn has a team of therapists, and doctors said he is improving at an encouraging rate. "He can do things in the afternoon that he couldn't do that morning," said Lynne Stempian, Quinn's doctor and assistant medical director of rehabilitation. Because of trauma to the right side of his brain, he is partially paralyzed on his left side. "When he first came in, Quinn didn't move other than to grimace in pain. Quinn came in with a coma and no response, and now he is moving much of his right side," Stempian reported. Although he will regain much of his muscle strength, he may have a learning disability. "It's too early to tell," Stempian said. According to the traffic accident report, Barnes' mother, Chong Ko, 49, of Aurora, lost control of her car when she skid on an icy road and stopped in the right lane on northbound Interstate 25. Marvin Jensen, 72, of Cheyenne, was driving 45 mph when he hit Ko's car, police said. The report said Jensen couldn't see because of blowing snow. After the impact, her car spun around twice and was thrown into a grassy area between I-25 north and the on-ramp.

Ko was treated for a broken arm' and released from a local hospital that night, Barnes said. Quinn was transported from Cheyenne to Children's Hospital in Denver by helicopter. Jensen was not hurt. Wyoming Highway Patrol Officer M.D. Rayburn said icy roads and bad weather as well as Ko's lack of driving experience was a large factor in causing the accident. Jensen was driving with a restricted license, the Wyoming Motor Vehicle department said. "My mom was watching Quinn so I could go out for my birthday," Barnes said. "She still blames herself for the accident." Doctors said Quinn's condition will improve, but Barnes said she has no choice but to pay for Quinn's future expenses. She has spoken with a lawyer who said she should sue for damages. Ko's insurance company, Allstate Insurance, said they are not liable because Quinn was not on Ko's insurance and because the accident occurred out of.Colorado, Barnes said. Jensen's company, Farmer's Insurance, said they are not liable because Jensen was not ticketed for the accident. But Barnes said none of that matters now. She is concentrating on helping her son with rehabilitation. "My son is top priority now," Barnes said. "I'm going to miss school, but my son comes first." Although she has 14 credits this term, Barnes said she visits her son everyday. She reads to him and helps him with physical therapy, she said. "The hardest thing is when I have to leave, he looks so sad." Metlicaid is paying for expenses now, but Barnes said she wants to set up a trust fund to help pay for expenses in the future. She is also considering dropping out of school of the semester. "It's not so much that I want to get a lot of money from (the insurance companies)," Barnes said. "I just want to make sure my son will be taken care of when he's older."

Documents Not Easily Accessible At MSCD, open records may not necessarily mean open. The Final Written Plan to Resolve Difficulties was among the most difficult documents to obtain: •On Feb. 7, a reporter for The Metropolitan went to the MSCD Personnel office to review Eze's contract. However, Sandi Jones, director of Personnel Payroll Services, did not allow the reporter to view the plan. The Metropolitan then wrote Jones a letter stating provisions in the Colorado Open Records Act. • On Feb. 25, The Metropolitan made a written request to Bill Rader, the dean of Professional Studies, for access to the plan. • On Feb. 28, Christiane Citron, director of Legal Affairs and Personnel, wrote a letter in response to The Metropolitan's letter to Rader. Her letter stated that the plan is part of Eze's personnel file and does not constitute an employment agreement. •In a letter to Citron on March 3, The Metropolitan again stated the law, pointing out that without the plan no contract would exist. Therefore, the plan is part of the employment agreement. The Metropolitan threatened to take legal action if the document was not made available. •On March 7, The Metropolitan received the plan and the "Final Terms of Reinstatement as Probationary Faculty'_' for Eze from the President's Office. The Colorado Open Records Act states certain personnel files are closed to the public. According to section 24-72-202 of the law, however, "' Personnel files' does not include applications of past or current employees, employment agreements, any amount paid or benefit provided incident to termination of employment, performance ratings, or any compensation, including expense allowances and benefits, paid to employees by the state, its agencies, institutions, or political subdivisions."

Financial aid is the No. 1 problem in today's education system, according to MSCD President Sheila Kaplan. Kaplan was one of three community leaders who spoke March 8 in the North Classroom at MSCD on Current Educational Issues . In addition to financial aid, Kaplan outlined nine other problems with education, including national health care, intercollegiate athletics and elimination of mandatory retirement for instructors. Evie Dennis, superintendent of Denver Public Schools, and Lloyd V. Hackley, Chancellor of Fayetteville State University in North Carolina, rounded out the panel on how to improve education in the United States. Dennis said she believed that everybody should learn about their cultures as well as other cultures in school and no one should be deprived of that:

She explained that we have 96,000 students in the Denver metro area and about nine different languages were spoken · between them. "We must develop a multi-cultural curriculum for our students," she said. Slow-learning children are often stuck in lower education classes thought their entire educations, she said, and it ·.,is unfair to the students because they become labeled. Dennis argued that some children are not given a fair chance in their progress in their education. "We should not have students go through Math I, then go through Math II, which is the same as Math I, and then Math III, which is the same as Math I," she said. Hackley said society must change to make the children successful. "Schools are instruments of society ... " he said. "Schools do not make communities, but good communities make good schools." Hackley told community leaders to be positive role models and help better our children by preparing them for events that lie ahead. "All children must learn to be bad. They aren' t naturally bad," he said. Dennis said the media should recognize that too much violence is publicized and not enough positive accomplishments are portrayed. She spoke of a specific high school student who scored perfectly on his ACT but no one heard about it. "Yet if someone was to throw a brick through a window, they would hear about it through the media," Dennis said.

MSCD Professor Talks on Youth Violence Brian S. Terrett THE METROPOLITAN When Professor Joseph Sandoval, chairman of the Criminal Justice and Criminology department, heard about the conference on violent juvenile crime held last week in Aurora, he just wanted to attend. He never imagined he be the moderator for one of most attended panel discussions offered at the three-day event.

"I'm

pleased I was given the opportunity to be at this conference," Sandoval said. "I jumped at the opportunity to be here with so many Sandoval criminal justice professionals." The conference, "Addressing Violent Youth Crime in Colorado Through Community Involvement: Model Programs," was put together by a group of police chiefs and sheriffs in Colorado, according to Sgt. Jeff Shrader of the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department. The conference, which took more than a year to organize, brought together a variety of disciplines to hear about and · discuss successful prevention and intervention programs dealing with juveniles and juvenile crime, Shrader said. One of the major problems facing communities today, Sandoval said, is not a rising level of violence but what he called the "lethality" of the violence. There. is more of a perception that vio-

lence is rising because there are more dead bodies for people to see and more crimes against innocent bystanders. Sandoval used as examples a grandmother who was shot as she stood in her kitchen and a woman killed by a stray bullet while she sat in her living room watching television: a bullet meant for a rival gang member. "Violence has not increased, but the effects have increased," Sandoval said. "That's why there are 500 plus people here trying to do something about it." More than half of the 500 people at the conference attended the professional break-out session moderated by Sandoval. Sandoval's role was to facilitate a discussion about issues facing law enforcement and corrections as they relate., to violent juvenile crime. "My role as moderator was to facilitate solutions, not preach to the choir," ' Sandoval said, "and there are some fascinating ideas around for us to discuss." Afterward, Sandoval said the criminal justice program at MSCD provides students with an overall education about the criminal justice system and how it works in dealing with juvenile crime. "I hope that by giving students in the program a quality education about the criminal justice system, they can go out into the community and, as educated citizens, make a difference," he said. Many MSCD criminal justice graduates who are now law enforcement leaders throughout the country_ attended the conference. "It's very gratifying to see we had a hand in providing them (the graduates) with a quality education that I hope is assisting them as they pursue their career in criminal justice," Sandoval said.

Upon hearing the news, they immediately flew to Denver to spend a week together in his small Glendale apartment, sifting through their son's school notes and term papers, poetry and prose, trying desperately to piece together the last days of his life. From his diary, they said they discovered that he had been ecstatic at the time of his death. He had quit smoking and had reached a higher level in his meditation.

OPEN LETTER TO THE METRO STATE COMMUNITY

As you may know, the Auraria campus has recently been defaced with anti-Semitic and racist posters and graffi~i. Posters have been removed from the West Classroom Building and graffiti has been erased from the wall of the St. Francis Center. Metro State is committed to academic freedom and to the free exchange of ideas, no matter how unpopular, controversial or offensive. Individuals or groups wishing to speak at the college can do so following our established policies and procedures. -·

Metro State will not tolerate anonymous acts of hatred or bigotry that create a hostile or intimidating atmosphere on the campus. It is essential that all of us condemn blind and unthinking prejudice. We must do all in our power to make the college and the campus a supportive environment for students, faculty and staff of all backgrounds and beliefs. If you find inappropriate materials displayed in your classrooms, offices or buildings, please inform Dr. Percy A. Morehouse, Jr., Director of Equal Opportunity/Assistant to the President, immediately. I am confident that this is one issue around which the entire college community can unite.

Women's History Month

Return of the Goddess Respect for Women is Needed in Society

n ancient times when Western civilization was developing along the fertile Nile, Ganges, Tigris and Euphrates rivers, the goddess was the primary deity of worship in these agricultural societies. She was the giver of life and she was connected with the earth. Woman and earth magic were the same, with the ability to give birth just the same as the earth gives birth to plants. In Egypt, the goddess Nut was the whole sphere of the li_fe enclosing heavens. She swallowed the sun in the west and gave birth to the sun in the east, and it passed through her body at night. The late archeologist Marija Gimbutas concluded that women were worshiped in Stone Age Europe and believed that women organized and ran cities that were "true civilizations" - peaceful societies without war. But then the nomadic Semitic peoples, who were herders of goats and sheep, and the lndo European herders of cattle, invaded. With these nomadic hunters came murder and a constant conflict with other cultures. They replaced the goddess with their male warrior god. There has been the subjugation of the female and conflict with the world ever since. Today, six percent of pregnant women are battered, women are discriminated against with lower wages than men and hold few positions of power. In addition women are the target of countless acts of harassment, rape and violence. A recent U.S. report on human rights focusing on abuses of women around the world found sterilizations and abortions are forced on women in China, and Burmese and Thai girls are forced into prostitution. Maids in Saudi

I'd like to introduce you to an extremely disturbing phenomenon I've noticed recently. Take a good look at these three idiots ... They all have pagers, they drive Blazers, they're all wearing the same clothes and have identical haircuts because, embarassingly, they all copied the same page of the Details fashion section... .. .in short, they look like a fairly typical group of pathetic yuppie scum, right?

Arabia are beaten, and young girls' genitals are ritualy mutilated in the Sudan and Somalia. Colombian women earn 30 to 40 percent less than men, and in the Republic of the Congo, adultery is illegal for women, but not for men. Recently Pope John Paul II condemned society for encouraging violence against women, and said that women's genius is needed to make men more sensitive. Healing the violent psyche of today's society and moving toward a peaceful society needs to take place in the minds of humanity by giving respect toward women and in turn the planet. There is still hope, I believe. As women slowly take on more positions of leadership, there will be a change. Women have a lot of power power to teach men compassion toward each other. In today's society we need not return to worshipping the female, but woman needs respect for her wisdom, healing powers, compassion, and for her ability as the giver of life. Woman gives birth and is an infant's first contact with the world. She provides nourishment just like the earth. The ancient Greeks worshiped the goddess Gaia and viewed the earth as a female living organism. With respect toward women, perhaps we will follow suit with respect toward the planet. We may no longer need to thoughtlessly dominate and rape nature and the rain forests, dump toxic wastes in These losers aren't slick, savvy the oceans and landfills, dominate other cultures businessmen!

TuE METROPOLITAN

in the Dead Lane

by the Rev. Mort Farndu Picture this: you're inside a missile of metal and glass that weighs around a ton, moving over a hard surface at 90 feet per second. There are other mis- ·siles a few feet away - some heading directly at you - all traveling at the same speed. If you hit one, or swerve to avoid one, you're going to spin off on some interesting new tangent you never thought possible . You'll be it . .,. dealing with the laws of physics - at 90 feet per second. And if you meet another one of those hurtling projectiles head-on, you won't have time to blink, let alone think. For most of us, driving a car is by far the most dangerous event we'll ever experience in our lives. We do it every day... and we don't give a second thought to it. Or to the statistics. There are more than 40,000 traffic deaths -annually in the U.S. That's a city the size of ·'·· Thornton wiped out every year. In a decade, we bury almost the entire population of Denver. But it's not only technology and physics that make it so deadly, it's the missile pilots. Too many of them are not really paying attention. They're chatting on car phones or yelling at the . kids to shut up in the back. They're fuming about the spouse, or the boss, or what Rush is babbling about on the radio. Some are having their 19th nervous breakdown ... and drunk enough to do something about it. Some drivers were kamikaze pilots in past lives. . - They ride your bumper at 60 miles an hour. They

MSCD Student change lanes every five seconds. Sometimes, they'll climb up on a bumper before changing lanes, cutting in front of the car beside them on a long, tight diagonal-slicing the baloney, I call this. It's not just a matter of testosterone levels, either, although that does come into play. Women are as bad as men these days. For a lot of people, it seems, driving is a form of encounter-group therapy, a sort of tough-love on wheels. When two of these head cases meet on the highway of life, a traffic incident can escalate to homicide. But it's not just the head cases that lose it in traffic. The most calm, rational and well-adjusted citizens sometimes fly into a white rage when they're driving. Because it's not just space or "manhood" that's being threatened on the highway it's life and limb. Unconsciously, I think we all sense how precariously our lives are balanced when we're driving. We've all seen the carnage first-hand . We usually slow down to gawk, human nature being what it is. The cops wave us by ... but I think they should require us to stop. Viewing that twisted wreckage of metal and human flesh, up close and personal, might give us a new outlook on driving. Then, again, it might not. The only thing that will wake us up, I'm afraid, is meeting another one-ton, metal-and-glass missile head-on. But, by then, it will be too late.

'For a lot of people, seems, driving is a form of encounter-group therapy, a sort of tough-love on wheels.'

MARKETPLACE OF IDEAS

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR OPINIONS INSIGHT

AHEC of a Lot of Money Just when you thought it was safe to close your pocketbook, you realize that you can't just stop at the next intersection, turn off the engine, leave your car, and go to class. It would be nice if it worked that way, but it doesn't. Your automobile requires a place that it can call home, while you continue your perilous quest for the golden diploma. It is your duty as a car owner (or borrower) to secure that fine machine of yours in that tar pit with yellow highlights known as a parking lot. Easier said than done. In fact, some Auraria students might argue that parking on this campus is harder than calc-useless. At some point during this time-consuming process, you will hand over your hard earned currency to a lot attendant or machine. Unless of course, you were silly enough to use the debit card lots and you are just asking for the machine to eat your dollar bills. The average cost of parking at Auraria is $1.80 per day. The total capacity of Auraria lots is 5,900. An average of $1.9 million of total revenue collected per year is a conservative estimate. These figures are from the 1991 Chart of Lot Designations, Rates, Capacities provided by the Parking Services Department. Some of you may be wondering where all of this money goes, and some of you may be wondering if the debit card machine accepted your $2 or not. At any rate, the money goes to the Parking Services department, which is a part of the Auraria Higher Education Center (AHEC) and as you may already

know, the AHEC is owned by the state. The revenue collected by the Parking Services department is used to pay its employees, keep up the conditions of its lots, and to pay for any new lots it may buld such as the new lot A. It is true that student parking on campus is less expensive than parking downtown; on the other hand, does it seem reasonable that the cost of parking is equal to one-third of your tuition and fees? Since the AHEC is state owned, you would think that students wouldn't have too much trouble with parking costs. It seems like students have to quit school and take up two jobs just to store their automobiles. It is unfortunate that the state can't find it in their hearts to give students a better break on parking. Maybe we could go back to the old days of 50 cents per day. Sure, and maybe I'll win the lotto. So students, faculty, staff, Tonya Harding, Jeff Gillooly, and anyone else I might have left out, the next time you go through the torment of parking here at Auraria, take a look around and see what your parking dollars are paying for. You can rest assured knowing that if I won the lotto I would use the money to pay for everyone's parking . That should last about a month. Sincerely, Mateo Tapia MSCD Student

Personal Responsibility is the Issue, Alum Says After reading the article "Hamblin's Conservatism Heats Up Crowd" in the Feb. 4, 1994, issue of The Metropolitan, I can only conclude that race has nothing to do with it. The issue is personal responsibility. Hamblin's complaints about a black person not being capable of finding welfare and educational aid, are just as applicable to some whites, Hispanics, and others. As a Metro State Alum, and attorney here in Los Angeles, I have seen this confusion surface over our riots, and now earthquake relief. I have seen males and females of all races steal, loot and deface public property. At the same time I have worked shoulder to shoulder with black attorneys of both sexes on difficult cases who are as much or more of an asset to the community than I am. I have also successfully sued blacks, whites, and people from many nationalities who failed to fulfill their legal responsibilities. Clearly, race is not the

issue. As our country changes from a "Land of Plenty" to a "Land of Federal Budget Debtors," our generation will be required to decide where to stop the "Manifest Destiny" of public aid expected by a growing number of our citizens. Whether Metro alums, or others are able to solve these problems is yet to be seen. In either case, it will be up to the generation of current students to start from our efforts and forge a country that can still be the land of the free and the home of the brave. It is a shame that students were consumed with exercising their First Amendment rights to free speech during Mr. Hamblin's speech rather than focusing on where they will take us from here. Michael J.T. O'Brien Class of 1984

A Queer Perspective Reality Check By Thomas A. Kitchen There is discriminating and there is being discriminating. Wearers of Chanel #5 are being discriminating. People who hire based on non-professional criteria (i.e. race, sex, religion, age, sexual orientation) are discriminating. They are choosing based on a prejudice. According to Will Perkins, founder of Colorado for Family Values, these are ~ the same. In a recent press conference Wilfred stated: "To 'discriminate' is to choose, and the freedom to choose is at the heart of our constitution." That's true, we all have the right to choose, and the freedom to choose is at the heart of our constitution." That's true, we all have the rlght to choose who we spend our lives with, it's a personal choice. Presently Wilfred has the right to decline employing anyone at his dealership on that basis, so where's the need for Amendment 2? One reason Will needs it is "the amendment discourages people from being politically active and discussing their views about sexual orientation, advocating for equal rights ... or associating with homosexuals and bisexuals (ACLU)." Will is fascinated and annoyed with gay activists. Wilfred went on to say: "Now no one is advocating that homosexuals be mistreated, and if they are, laws are in place to protect them as well as any other citizen, and these laws should be administered, no question(sic)." But according to the ACLU, Amendment 2 "repeals existing ordinances and policies in Colorado that protect gay men, lesbians and bisexuals from discrimination in housing, employment and public accommodations on the â&#x20AC;˘ basis of their sexual orientations." It would seem Wilfred does not believe discrimination constitutes mistreatment. This is demonstrated by Amendment 2 itself that "establishes and encourages a public and private right to discriminate against (gays, lesbians and bisexuals) (ACLU) ." Therefore he must believe discrimination is a correct response to homosexuals. Another of Wilfred's points was: "Civil rights advocates are beginning to understand that including a behavior as a criteria for protected class status would dilute the Civil Rights Act to a meaningless piece of paper." But gays, lesbians and bisexuals do not affect that law because protected class status has never been granted them, nor is it likely to be granted under the present United States Supreme Court. Furthermore, according to Out Front magazine; Judge Bayless, in finding the amendment unconstitutional stated: " ...the presence of a sexual orientation provision (in Denver) has not increased costs or impaired the enforcement of other civil rights statutes or ordinances... (1/5/94,p22) ." Judge Bayless was convinced by the evidence that other civil rights statuses weren't diluted by inclusion of sexual orientation. It seems that protected class status for gays wouldn't harm other minorities after all. Willy is desperately trying to support the erroneous notion that Amendment 2 merely denies gays and lesbians protected class status when the truth is it was written to deny them any legal recognition whatsoever as a group. A Klan-type hate campaign has been waged in fundamentalist churches over the last few years in the effort to pass Amendment 2. If the United States Supreme Court finds it constitutional, we can only wonder what's next. Wilfred is up to his old "they eat feces" misrepresentations. I can't stomach what he is given any credence. Know the facts and see, Wilfred is full of feces. It's nauseating how his vacant followers lap it up.

Discontinuance of Espresso, Etc. q Would be Disservice to Students

Espresso Etc. has been in its present location in the Student Union for more than three years. The steady increase in business we have experienced is due to serving quality products in a friendly and effi· cient manner. Eighty-five to 90 percent of our customers are on controlled time schedules. They know they can stop by for their favorite drink and have it served in a short period of time. We are continually pleased by the number of people who say it is one of the most pleasant experiences of their day and how they look forward to arriving at school because they know they will be greeted warmly and served their favorite drink. The decision by the Tivoli Retail Committee to negotiate .with another coffee company for the coffee shop in the new Tivoli Student Union was a business decision. I know from meeting with the students on the committee that the decision was not easy. I support their decision and hope their hard work and dreams for the Tivoli Student Union are realized. The discontinuance of Espresso, Etc., however, and the quick access to quality, reasonably priced products would be a major disservice to the campus community. A proposal was submitted to the Retail Committee by me to stay in my present location. This was turned down. The present Student Union building will be turned into classrooms and offices. I am presently looking at other locations on campus to see if any of them would offer the same "walk-

through" service for my customers. A campus of approximately 35,000 students should be able to support two coffee operations serving different purposes. My concern is for my customers that will not be able to run over to the Tivoli Student Union between classes or on a 15 minute break from work. I have been told by many that they will either stop by the espresso bar near where they work or, in the case of the North Classroom people, park closer to Speer and patronize one of the many coffee shops in Larimer Square rather than go out of their way on campus. The concern for convenient service for my customers has been ongoing even during the bidding process- this is not new since not getting the Tivoli bid. I have continually advised the Board that both services on campus would better serve the campus community. Our customers and friends have been very supportive the past three weeks- Thank You. If you would like our service to continue on campus either in its present location or in another area with quick walk-through, please contact: Kersten Keith SACAB

Fundamentalist, fanatic, hate-monger. In the lexicon of the politically correct these terms serve as the post-modern counterparts to words such as "nigger," "kike," "papist," et al. "Fundamentalist" and "hate-monger'' were the words of choice for Thomas Kitchen in the Feb. 25 issue of The Metropolitan. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that when someone resorts to epithets, he or she lacks either a sharp intellect or hard facts about their opponent. Really, Mr. Kitchen. There are various disparaging terms that can be applied to persons who suffer from an attraction to the same sex. Many of us who disapprove of all sexual activity outside of marriage refuse to use these terms: First, they are archaic and meant to demean. Second, homosexual persons do not wish to be identified by these labels. I realize "common courtesy" is becoming increasingly rare in our society, but isn't it possible that you could describe others in the same terms they describe themselves; i.e., "Evangelical Protestant," not "fundamentalist?" Name-calling may be appropriate in the vocabulary of bullies and skinheads, but it does nothing to clarify the issue of "freedom of expression" or determine what motivated the passage of Amendment 2 in Colorado. It is unfortunate that Mr. Kitchen's siege mentality does not allow him to entertain the possibility that it was disapproval of homosexual acts, not hatred for homosexual persons, which was the motivating factor in many voters' approval of Amendment 2. If we are to believe Kitchen, acceptance of homosexual behavior equates to "love," while disapproval means "hate." This is not merely a simplistic explanation, it is a false one. Approving of self-destructive behavior is no substitute for authentic compassion. I belong to a church which is, as you know, quite intolerant of homosexual activity. In fact, the Catholic Church is intolerant of all sinful activity: Sexual immorality, racism, anti-Semitism, slavery, abortion, murder, etc. Ironically, she is very compassionate and forgiving toward us individual sinners. Ask any Catholic who has gone to Confession recently. If you want to find the model for this apparent paradox, you can find it in the life of Jesus Christ (compare Matthew 5:27-28 with John 8:3-11). To Mr. Kitchen and all other interested persons, let me extend an invitation for you to attend a discussion entitled, "Human Sexuality: What Catholics Believe" ·on Tuesday, March 29, 1994 from 12:00 - 2:00 p.m. in the Student Union Amphitheater.

Chief Wilma Mankiller is living proof of this. In 1987, she became the first woman ever to be elected principal chief of the Cherokee Nation. She has suffered emotional losses, health complications and numerous battles of sexism only to rise above criticism and lead the Cherokee Nation toward unity, self-sufficiency and self-government. In the opening week of Women 's History Month, Mankiller spoke to a crowd in the Tivoli Student Union Tumhalle for her speech "A Chief and Her People." Students had a chance to hear Mankiller talk about her dedicaÂˇ tion to women's issues and her fight for more women in leadership positions.

children. But many years later, something good came out of the move. It was there, around 1969, that Mankiller first became active in women's issues. Mankiller said she lived in San Fra-ncisco during a very important time-especially for women. "I saw more women speaking up

and taking leadership on issues I thought were important to women of that generation," she said. At this time, Mankiller was married and had two small children. Mankiller said she didn't want to just live in her community and work. "I wanted a lot more out of my life, I wanted to be involved with the community, I wanted to be involved in politics," she said. Mankiller said she didn't have the self-confidence to get involved because she had no strong women role-models as a child. In her community where she grew up, women were no( in leadership roles. The people she respected most were tribal leaders, all of whom were men. But as a young woman watching other women have the courage to get involved in women's issues, she was encouraged to do the same. Mankiller attributes her dedication to women's issues to the kindness of another woman. An elderly woman at the San Francisco Indian Center saw Mankiller's potential and talked her into going to college. "She saw potential in me, a street kid," Mankiller said. "Because she helped me, I always try to use my work and skills to help other people." Mankiller's work for the Cherokee

Some McLach~n's Quiet Magic E DCh ante d Mesmerizes

â&#x20AC;˘

Ogden Audience Jeff Stratton FEATURES EDITOR A mellow evening of madrigals awaited a thirty-something crowd gathered at the Ogden Theatre for the March 2 performance by Canadian singer/songwriter Sarah McLachlan. Opening band The Devlins, an Irish four-piece, began with a strong piece featuring the intricate guitar work of leader Colin Devlin. Unfortunately, the band had problems with pacing, and their short set was bogged down by Sominex-slow songs that made me aware of how uncomfortable those folding chairs are at the Ogden. When Devlin introduced their last number, the audience members who did wake up were too polite to cheer. McLachlan's first Colorado appearance at Boulder's Fox Theatre in August 1992 was an intimate show, with candelabras decorating the stage and McLachlan establishing a rapport with the audience. Wednesday's show was more of a production. A simple but eloquent use of lighting against sheer fabric provided a visual impression that was well-tailored to McLachlan's songs. Her amazing band didn't seem a bit tired, despite the altitude and having played a few daytime sets in Fort Collins and Boulder the day before, and Denver' s Mercury Cafe that afternoon. This time McLachlan fleshed things out with an additional guitarist. She didn't play her guitar as much during this show, but sat at the piano for "Ben's Song." She blushed when the between-song catcalls, whistles and marriage proposals from some of the male members of the audience drowned out the informative and funny introductions to her songs. "This is the sad part of the show," she said about "Ice," a tune based on her experiences traveling through Thailand's prostitution districts and Cambodia's

killing fields with the documentary group World Vision Canada. McLachlan concentrated heavily on material from the new Fumbling Towards Ecstasy but she also unveiled re-worked versions of some of her best tracks from 1991 's Solace. She reached back to her first record , Touch, for "Out of the Shadows," the first song she ever wrote, and one of her best-loved numbers, "Vox," the pappiest, bounciest tune in her repertoire, sparkling with the angelic backing vocals of Camille Henderson. Ecstasy's leadoff track, "Possession," was buried toward the end of the set and seemed much more subdued than the original. One of her most lighthearted pieces, "Ice Cream," showed up as an stripped-down encore with drummer Ashwin Sood and Kershaw on stage helping out with the vocal chores. Another encore, "Into The Fire", began as a lighthanded pastiche of George Benson ' s " On Broadway." McLachlan isn't content to just play her songs.

Newest King's X a Lackluster Affair Michael BeDan THE METROPOLITAN

The new release by the heavymeta I trio King ' s X is called Dogman (Atlantic), and it contains a handful of new self-penned songs as well as a remake of Jimi Hendrix's "Manic Depression." The album is just over 59 minutes long, but seems to last a few hours. The music is thick and grinding for the most part, and many songs sound too much alike. The guitar work on this release is far from imaginative. Lots of repetitive power chord sweeps fill this effort and the solos are weak. Even the title track, which is the best of the 13 King's X tunes, is lacking creativity and sounds too rough. The song is catchy, however, Ty Tabor, Doug Pinnick and Jerry Gaskill of King's X. and should receive plenty of air play for a month or two.

The worst song on this album is the fourth track titled "Flies And Blue Skies." This song sounds as though a high school garage band attempted to mix a ballad with introspective lyrics and package the tune in a commercialized, crossover fashion. Instead they created a choppy, confusing and musically repulsive piece of noise. King's X's lyrics leave much to be desired. In almost every song, there is at least one good line that seems to have a thoughtful idea behind it. The problem is that nothing develops and the lyrics go off on tangents making no sense at all. In the song "Complain," everything from the Budweiser slogan "Why ask why" to Rush Limbaugh is mentioned at some point. I don ' t think even the self-proclaimed know-it-all Limbaugh could decipher these lyrics. There is just no

fluidity or direction to them. The track "Pillow" is a perfect example of the aimless lyrics on this tape. "I ate the crumbs and I spilled the wine/the thought that counts/burning candles shining in the light/shining/tide underside my pillow-willow thundering." What? Vocalist Doug Pinnick' s attempts to sing can only be tolerated for a song or two. Only Lemmy from Motorhead could be more annoying. The lone bright spot is on the "Manic Depression" remake. For just an instant, Pinnick sounds a bit like Jimi. For the most part, the rest of the tape is torture. Pinnick's voice drones on endlessly. If you enjoy talented musicians playing artistic songs with well written lyrics, this tape is not for you. If you want a poorly crafted, garage-band nightmare, then King's XRULES!!!

Amidst the vast array of insipid, lethargy- inspiring productions touting a "folk theme" is the rare gem of honest-togoodness entertainment. The Hungarian State folk ensemble is this gem. Both rousing and immaculately orchestrated, this ensemble is everything a good folk production should be. It gives the audience a healthy dose of authentic culture while dazzling the senses. Although a good portion of those who attended this year's ensemble at the Denver Auditorium Theatre on March 2 came to connect with their Hungarian roots, many showed up just to enjoy the rousing score, lovely costumes and vigorous choreography. The first act, titled "I was Leaving My Life's Country," showcased Hungary's florid vocal and instrumental tradition. During this act the orchestra performed pieces that often began slowly with poignant, haunting melodies that progressively quickened and crescendoed into lively tunes that sounded much like Polka. Many pieces featured rapid-fire clarinet and violin solos as well as ethnic Hungarian instruments like the cimbalom, which looks like a piano and sounds like a cross between a harpsichord and an acoustic guitar. This music supplied the backdrop for the troupe of agile Hungarian dancers who performed the traditional fast-paced steps of their motherland. The dances seem to be influenced by Hungary ' s northern neighbor, the former U.S.S.R., and blended nicely with the instrumental and vocal style that was brought to the Hungary by gypsies in the 15th century. Adding to the visual appeal of the

often mesmerizing dance were the bright intricately embroidered costumes. The women ' s ' dresses were full and made from richly hued floral fabrics of green, gold, red and blue. Some were of a distinct gypsy character with their loose flowing silks and shimmering scarves. The men wore tailored wool knickerlength suits with thick, embroidered waistbands. Both men and women wore calf-high boots and added extra emphasis to the orchestra's music by slapping and clicking them together at the heels in midair, shouting an occasional "AYAH!" (Probably Hungarian for WHOOPEEE!) Concert-goer Ed Monkrey, 84, said the costumes are authentic and remind him of his childhood home in a Hungarian district of New Jersey. Monkrey was born in an apartment above a bowling alley in 1909. His parents immigrated from Hungary at the turn of the century and opened a small cafe and theatre. Although he said he has forgotten his parents' native tongue, Monkrey is still passionate about Hungarian culture, especially the music. "Music is what pulls it together. .. It' s folklore," he said adding that his third time seeing the folk ensemble. Others say that Hungarians take a great deal of pride in their music as well as other aspects of the culture. Chuck Lambertz, who manages the company when it tours America, said that the members of the company are fiercely proud of their bloodlines, "I think their pride in .their heritage is much more apparent [than that of Americans]," he said.

Library Archives Keep Auraria's Past Alive Past Course Catalogs and Class Schedules Available to Students and Alumni Jeff Stratton FEATURES EDITOR The heritage and history of the Auraria Campus is kept in cardboard boxes in a comer of the Auraria Library. The Archives and Special Collections department sits on the second floor of the library. Most students have probably walked past it without realizing what it is, and the small section is open only five hours a day and protected by a steel fence. Seemingly uninviting, the Archives is actually a department whose business is accepting things-anything and everything pertaining to Auraria and the three institutions that occupy it.

"That's one of the most important things we have," said technician Frank Tapp. "The Archives keeps course catalogs and class schedules for every year, for each school.

IN RmJME MAGAZINE • Resume Magazine i.s a database of resumes which we send on high density diskette to employers throughout Colorado. • Many employers need a way to evaluate and file the thousands of resumes they receive each year. With Resume Magazine employers can search for the specific skills and experience that they are looking for. This is done by selecting a "field" such as awards; certification; communication skills; desired position; education; experience; grade point average; management skills; performance; research; special projects; sales skills; and software. Then employers select a keyword to access resumes that indicate skills or experience associated with the selected field. For instance, an employer ~an select "software", and then "WordPerfect" and access the resumes which indicate WordPerfect proficiency. With this type of resume management system employers do not have to file or throw away a resume that does not meet current needs. Your resume will still be in the database when an opening arises that requires your specific skills and experience.

Our recommendation is that you assemble a resume based on the above Resume Magazine fields. Try to list your skills and experience under each heading with one or two word descriptors. Employers want to see your skills and experience listed in a concise manner. H your skills include writing proposals, estimates, advertising, contracts or business letters you would list those skills under a beading entitled "communication skills." H you have experience selling software , insurance, shoes or cars you would create a heading on your resume entitled "Sales Experience." Then list your sales experience with the topic words that indicate the types of products or service you have sold. You should also indicate your performance. H you sold $1,000,000 worth of insurance you would type $1,000,000 to the right of insurance under your "Sales Experience" heading. Then we will highlight $1,000,000 as a performance field. Another category might be "Sales Skills" where you would list: Prospecting, Finding Needs, Dandling Objection&, and Cloeing Salee. We recommend that if you have a GPA higher than 3.0 you list that under a Grade Point Average heading on your resume. pr<)vide l'eilume editing eernces ai no charge but we recommend that yo~ put iogethe.r a "functional resume" based on the above headingB something to work With.

to get them back in the right order. Nothing here leaves this area." The Archives does have a reading room where the staff allows students to go through materials. They will also copy any documents needed, and the first 30 ~ _,,, pages are free. . One of Tapp's projects is creating a computerized index of articles that have appeared in The Metropolitan, UCD's Advocate, and CCD's Prospector and The Community News. This index would then be accessible through the CARL system. Among the most interesting docu-

ments from Auraria's past kept in the Archives are the collections of newspapers published by the three schools. Predecessors to The Metropolitan stored at the Archives include yellowing copies of The Metro Gadfly and Your Choice, both from 1967, as was the crypticallytitled (and short-lived)Neoteric Puff. Other publications included The Cherry Creek Pioneer and The Auraria SunTimes. Looking through these papers is interesting and often funny. A 1968 version of The Metropolitan ran a story about a beauty pageant sponsored by the College Republicans, and the winners' hairstyles are already historic milestones.

FOLK FEST from page 20 Allison says he wants his son Zoltan to learn the customs and language of Hungary. Spak has traveled throughout the United States with the company but has yet to see them actually perform. "I all the time busy," he said, describing a typical afternoon before a show setting up the lights and stage props, then selling concessions and watching Zoltan during the show. All in all, the ensemble is worth its weight in goulash for providing a rare opportunity to meet first-generation immigrants like Spak and experience a culture that most Americans have limited knowledge of.

SAFE SPRING BREAK WEEK March 14·21, 1994 /

You've been looking forward to Spring Break since the first day of the term! But you still have to decide what you're are going to do, ·where you're going to go and who you're going to be with. One choice should already have been made: the choice to be safe. Think about it: • Drinking, drugs and driving don't mix. • You don't have to be "drunk" to be im.paired--even one or two drinks affect your driving skills. • Take your turn-be a designated driver and get everyone where they are going safely. • Respect other people's right, and your own-to choose not to drink. There's plenty of fun to be had without alcohol. • Respect state laws and campus policies. • Don't let your friends drive im.p~it's one of the fastest ways to end a friendship. • Wear your seat belt-it's your best protection against an impaired driver.

Play it safe. Have a Spring Break to remember.

"People have doubted me all through high school and college. All I want is for people to recognize me as a good player." The All-CAC first team players are senior Jen Masters and senior Molly Yockey from DU, senior Jennifer Patrick from the Air Force Academy, senior Beth Thiebaut from the University of Southern Colorado and Rosey Forbes, a senior from Colorado Christian Univeisity.

A long, action-packed season-on the court and off-came to an end Feb. 2 for the men's basketball team. The Roadrunners lost in the first round of the Colorado Athletic Conference tournament to the University of Denver 81-67, closing the season with a record of 14-13. "Considering all that has happened this year, I am pleased with how hard the kids played," Strain said. "I am disappointed we didn ' t have a better season though." The Roadrunners struggled to 25 first-half points, minus senior center Allen McClain. McClain collected two personal fouls in the first two and a half minutes of the

contest, and found a seat on the bench for the rest of the half. "I came out ready to play," McClain said. "They started calling cheap little fouls, and I had to come out of the game." The second half was a different story for McClain. McClain collected all of his teamhigh 19 points in the second half, keeping the Pioneers from running away with the game. _ Two other Roadrunners finished in double figures along with McClain. Senior forward James Shettleworth netted 10 points and grabbed eight rebounds in his final game as a Roadrunner and sophomore guard Chris Moses had 12 points for the night. . MSCD managed to shoot 35 percent from the field for the night, and 68 percent from the line.
