Terra Centre Air May Be Unsafe Kelly Costello THE METROPOLITAN MSCD employees working in the Terra Centre building across from campus have given the building a new name: The Terror Center.

Some employees said they have experienced headaches and stomachaches while working in the building at 1100 Stout St. "When I first started (working) here, I was getting headaches all the time," said Michelle Klammer, a graphic design intern with the MSCD Office of Publications, who worked in the Terra centre building just over a year.

"I had a month off for Christmas and when I came back, I started getting the headaches again," she said.

Another employee has similar problems.

"Sometimes when I work really long days, I have a

.._

headache all day long," Jeff Martinez, an intern with the Community and Media Relations Office said.

"When I go home, I'm fine."

Julie Primozich, a graphic designer with the MSCD Office of Publications, also suffers from headaches while at work.

"I've never been in a building like this where everyone is constantly suffering from the same thing," she said.

Primozich went on to describe a co-worker who was on maternity leave for three months. Within a matter of days of returning, she was taking Tylenol sinus medication.

"We kind of live on that stuff around here," Primozich said.

According to the April 1993 issue of Science News, headaches are just one symptom associated with Sick Building Syndrome, which is caused by fluores-

cent lighting, cloth-covered space dividers, pens, glue, insulation or a poor ventilation system. Other symptoms of SBS may be fatigue, eye irritation, dizziness, nausea, sore throats and dry coughs.

According to Alan Saville, industrial hygienist with the Colorado Department of Health Air Pollution Control Division, no formal complaints have been filed with the department on the Terra Centre.

Numerous formal complaints are necessary before a building is investigated for SBS by the Department of Health, he said.

Birtcher Property Services, the management company for the Terra Centre, also said they haven't received any complaints from their tenants.

Saville said filing a formal complaint involves gathering a lot of information and a screening process

James Watt, Bob Kaspar on Campus Earth Day Debate Covers Issues of Water Rights, Population Impact Jean E.R. Straub STAFF WRITER

e:-.

It wasn' t much of a debate.

Two men each gave a half-hour spiel on whether water is an environmental issue or not - whether to restore the West to its natural state or not.

Bob Kaspar, coordinator of the international environmental group Earth First! and James Watt, former secretary of the Interior under the Reagan Administration, gave prepared comments to about 50 students who were sitting in the hot sun at noon April 21 in the Student Union Amphitheater. Some students, hungry for the advertised Earth Day Debate, stared longingly at the ice cold pitcher of water on the mediators table.

"Though water makes up 71 percent of the area of our planet, is often a resource that appears to be in short supply," explained mediator Norman Provizer, chairman of the Political Science department. "And nothing makes for more interesting politics than the issue of scarcity."

Watt, who spoke first, said environmental politics has very little to do with the environment.

"The struggle we've been going through for many decades really deals with the subject of power and the exercise of that power to control social and economic behavior," he said.

If Americans are interested in the environment and look to specifics, they can resolve differences and live in harmony, Watt said. Science and technology can be used to help meet environmental needs.

'To understand where we are now and where we're going, we have to know the past.'

-Bob Kaspar Earth First/ It is the greater problem of exercising power over people 's economic and social well-being that causes the discourse in American society, he said And those issues are elevated intentionally to Washington, where centralized power masquerades as the environmental movement, he said.

The easiest way to control society is through the control of water, he said.

"So if you 're interested in the environment, my experienc.es have shown that you can move into that area or that region or that community and solve the problems," Watt said. "You cannot solve it once you get Washington in on top of you."

Former Secretary of the Interior James Watt, left, talks to MSCD CoPIRG chapter President Ajayi Harris Thursday In Adirondacks atrium.

To frame his opposing argument, Kaspar said the settlement of the West in the last 150 years by EuropeanAmericans is short-lived and transitory like a group of flowers in Wisconsin, spring ephemerals, that bloom in April and are gone by May. "To understand where we are now and where we're going, we have to know the past," he said.

Kaspar described at length the glorious condition of the great central valley of California when it was untouched by white settlers.

"Today those wetlands are gone," he said. "The water is ditched and drained for farms and cities."

Holding a thick stack of white index cards, Kaspar listed interminable examples of what white settlement brought to the West in the name of improvement, including a tremendous infrastructure, 52 hydro-electric plants, 355 storage reservoirs, 15,000 miles of canals, 1,333 miles of pipeline and 275 miles of tunnels, all of which were built by the Bureau of Reclamation and do not take into account private, municipal or Corps of Engineer work.

and deliver water to farms and cities throughout the West. More than a million artificial bodies of water store 294 million acre feet - the equivalent of 22 Colorado rivers and enough water to put Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico under a foot of water, he said.

"It's also given us the ability to support a massive population," Kaspar lamented. He said quoted a newspaper article that Colorado is predicted to grow by 1.5 million people by 2020.

A microphone was set up for use by the crowd, which was as diverse as the two sides of the moon: members of College Republicans and their friends, members of Colorado Public Interest Research Group and their friends, a couple of reporters, and a half dozen photographers.

Those who approached a microphone set up in the audienc.e tended to rattle off long comments rather than ask questions.

"I do not consider us a virus on Planet Earth," Watt said in response to one such question. "I'm not condemning any of us. We must resolve our differences."

Candidates Vie for MSCD Vice-Presidential Posts Robyn Schwartz COPY EDITOR While final exams are foremost on most students' minds, two search processes that will profoundly affect students' future semesters are under way.

The search for a vice president for Student Services at MSCD is narrowed to three candidates, two of whom visited the Auraria Campus this week; and the search for a vice president of Academic Affairs is narrowed to 15, according to MSCD President Sheila Kaplan , who said that post will be filled by the time students · return in the fall.

Mary Ellen Ashley, a candidate for the Student Services race, will be on campus Monday, May 2.

Outgoing MSCD Student Government President Barb Ferrill encourages students to interview Ashley at a session in Central Classroom 301 at 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. An optional time will be open to everyone on May 3 from 9:45 -10:45 a.m.

"One thing I think is really crucial is that because the position is new, and because Sheila Kaplan is new, we (students) have an amazing window of opportunity to really impact what issues will be addressed," Ferrill said.

Students can jot down their opinions of the candidates on surveys prepared by MSCD Student Government and drop them off at the President's office.

The other two candidates for the Student Services position, Vernon Haley

and Vincente "Bert" Rivas, visited campus April 26 and April 27.

Haley, at a student interview April 26, focused on the importance of all students, not just student leaders, involving themselves in student-related policy implementation and the need at MSCD for extended and alternative hours for student services.

Haley is executive director at Rochester Educational Opportunity Center at Brockport College in New York.

Rivas, executive fellow (a position encompassing associate vice presidential responsibilities) at California State Polytechnic University - Pomona, overwhelmingly focused on the need for a student services administrator to talk to the students regularly and directly.

"You can't just sit in your office and say ' I'm an advocate for students,' you have to go where students are," Rivas said.

He also said it is important for a campus to reflect its surrounding community.

Students asked both candidates their philosophies on published faculty evaluations, equity in support services to all students, minority outreach programs and consolidation of separate student services.

The vice president for Student Services will oversee a $5 million budget, $1.4 million of which is student-fee funded, Kaplan said.

Kaplan listed a focus on enrollment, retention and graduation rates and someone with experience with minority issues as some of her priorities for the position.

After challenging the college to gain access to student evaluations of faculty, an MSCD student was allowed to review the evaluations last week.

Christopher Anderson, a freshman journalism major, received a call from the President's Office April 21 and received a copy of the Fall 1993 evaluation of an instructor he had that semester.

The results of the evaluations showed the instructor had a 3.4 course mean rating out of a possible seven for ENG 102, the class in which was Anderson enrolled. The instructor received a rating of 5.08 and 5.89 for two ENG 101 courses.

Anderson said he asked to see the records about two months ago.

The State College System consulted with the Attorney General' s office to get a ruling, said Faculty Senate President Jerry Boswell at a meeting April 20.

Anderson said he was glad the school decided to release the evaluations, but is concerned about possible legislation to deny access in the future.

"I think it's a shame that they want to try to pass a law to prevent access to the student evaluations," he said.

"Because access to student evaluations is a selling point for Metro."

MSCD is a state institution and subject to the Colorado Open Records Act, which states most records, including performance ratings, be open to the public.

Thrnhalle Renovation Plans in the Works Claudia Hibbert THE METROPOLITAN When the renovations are completed in the Tivoli Student Union Tumhalle room, students will have the opportunity to enjoy concerts, lectures, plays and banquets in an area where the acoustics will rule.

Right now the Tumhalle has four bare walls, a stage, a floor and a ceiling.

But if its program plan is approved, it will have a renovated stage area, complete with a movie screen and a backstage room, new furnishings, and new sound and lighting systems.

And this is only the tip of the iceberg.

The Tumhalle's renovation will open the door for wide variety of events, said Bryce Avery, Lecture and Special Events coordinator for the Metro Activities Council.

When Wilma Mankiller came to campus in March, her visit had to be in different places on campus. The luncheon in St. Francis Center attracted approximately 150 students. Some had to be turned away because there wasn't enough room to accommodate everyone. The lecture attracted 250 to the Tumhalle room.

"It would have been ideal if the whole event could have been in the Tumhalle," Avery said.

Kersten Keith, representative of the Student Advisory Committee to the Auraria Board and chairwoman of the Tivoli Turnhalle Committee; and Barb Weiske, director of the Tivoli Student Union; authored the Tumhalle preliminary program plan. Keith said she believed most of the plan would be approved.

But the committee cannot seek any funding until the Auraria Board of Directors approves a program plan for the room May 6.

But this fact isn't discouraging SACAB or Tumhalle committee members from pursuing all they can get for the room.

"I'm sure we'll get funding because the Tivoli is a historical site," said SACAB Secretary Lisa Barry.

In addition to decorative renovations, the Tumhalle, which was damaged by fire years ago, needs a sprinkler system and an fire alarm system to bring the room up to fire codes.

"Before, if student clubs wanted to use the Tumhalle, they would have to pay for a fire marshal, Keith said. "It would be so expensive for them they would take their events off campus."

Few have used the Tumhalle, which has a 700-person capacity, because the expense is so high.

Clubs have used St. Cajetan's Center, Room 330 in the current Student Union or the Events Center for their events because the rooms are free to student organizations.

The Events Center. is the largest facility available to clubs with about a 1,000person capacity, but clubs had to coordinate their activities with athletic events and pay for Auraria Conference Services to put down a covering for the floor.

"It's a gym," Keith said. "It's big, but it looks like a gym, and it smells like a gym."

Students will -have first priority to reserve the Tumhalle for their events, Keith said. Department-sponsored programs would also be considered top priority.

"The Turnhalle is to be a multipur-

pose special event facility," Keith said.

"We're not going to make everyone happy."

The Tumhalle is scheduled to be completed sometime in 1995. The estimated cost for the renovation is about $7 million.

What's In a Name? enrolled at MSCD. From MSCD students alone, AHEC gets about $442,000. The AHEC Bond Fee equals about 18 percent of MSCD students' tuition and fees.

JoAnn Soker, AHEC executive vice president for Administration, said the word "student" in the Tivoli's name may inhibit the downtown population from coming to the Tivoli, which will have a new coffee house, a deli, a pizza parlor, a hamburger stand and a food court.

"The AMC Theatre and the restaurants that will be in (the Tivoli) want the community to know they are also welcome to the building." Soker said. "The Tivoli Union also was the name of a beer that was brewed there. It's kind of a historical connection."

Davidson Porter, associate director of Student Activities, disagreed and added that the word "student" could even attract some to the Tivoli.

"I think this thought that people won't come down if it's a student union is silly, he said. "We see concerts advertised at the University of Colorado in the student center. They don't say the University of Colorado center. Why is it even an issue?"

Will it be the Tivoli Student Union or the Tivoli Union?

Depending on who's using the new Union for whatever reason, the name can be one or the other.

When advertising events to the student population, the name of the Tivoli building under renovation will be the Tivoli Student Union. When advertising to a non-student population, the name will be the Tivoli Union, said Maggie Miller, acting director of MSCD Student Activities.

"The trick is what you do when you're publicizing to a student and nonstudent population," Miller said. "It's a complicated issue."

Others, however, don't think so.

"There's institutionaliz.ed denial going on," said Jody Andrade, MSCD Clubs Resource Center coordinator. "It is a student union. How can you deny what is?"

The word "student'' should be in the name because the Tivoli is paid for with student fees, she said.

All MSCD students must pay the Auraria Higher Education Center Bond Fee of $26 for the current Student Union, the HPER Events Center (commonly known as the gym) and the facilities in the Tivoli building. Approximately 17,000 full-time and part-time students are

MSCD Students Pay the Price for Springfest Improving Air Christopher L. Anderson THE METROPOLITAN MSCD students paid from their pockets to be a part of Springfest '94 April 14 while UCD and CCD students attended for free.

MSCD students bought tickets for $1 each to purchase sandwiches, cokes, beer, fruit and vegetables, massages and rides on the Gyro-Scope because MSCD Student Activities did not co-sponsor the biannual event 'We just didn't have the money," said Kersten Keith MSCD Activities Council chairwoman.

Spring semester events are planned by December 1, Keith said, adding she did not know if the Springfest was going to take place until three weeks before the event

"I felt it was more important to fund clubs than this event because I just didn't know if it was going to happen," Keith said.

According to UCO Student Activities Coordinator Shangra-La Jones, Springfest and Fallfest have been tri-institutional events of the Auraria Campus for the past three years.

"It is one of the biggest events on campus. It is the one event that includes the interests of everyone. Students and staff from all three colleges can be together and have fun and relax. It is a chance to say we care about you. In the spring it is a way of saying goodbye, and in the fall it is a chance to say hello, especially to freshmen. You need this at a commuter-type campus because people have less of a chance to meet," she said.

MSCD student Samuel Gould said he

attended the Springfest and was told by the ticket-taker there that MSCD students didn't want to pay for the event.

"I want to know how they figured that I don't remember being asked that," Gould said.

Getting student input is important, Jones said.

"You have to ask your students what they want. We go to the North classrooms each semester, including summer, and hand out surveys to find out what the students want their activities fees to pay for. We found out that UCD students wanted more diverse bands - and they got them," she said.

Keith said MSCD has done a survey.

'We did a huge survey two years ago," she said "I imagine we will be doing another one soon."

Quality Simple TERRA CENTRE from page 1 before an owner or property management company is approached and asked to investigate the problems in the building.

"I look for certain red flags," Saville said. "I ask questions like, 'When are your symptoms worse? Have you seen a doctor? Do you have a workman's comp claim filed?' I try to establish a pattern."

Saville said he also must determine if the complaints are work-related, buildingrelated, or the cause of a poor ventilation system.

Many MSCD offices, including Institutional Advancement and Administration and Finance, are located in the Terra Centre building.

Saville said complaints of SBS symptoms are likely to come from any building that doesn't have access to fresh air.

Saville said most corrections to improve indoor air quality and reduce the number of complaints are inexpensive and simple. The best remedy, and by far the cheapest, is to get out of the office for a few minutes each day for some fresh air - that is, if there's still any fresh air left in Denver.

Graduation Better the Second Time Around for Senior

S

Farewell to MSCD

College is a Test of Endurance e

r raduation is a reflection on endurance.

As I look toward the final days as a student, I say, I have endured. I say all students have endured. Students endure until the finish- graduation.

I have endured 1O years of educational struggle: financial-aid-form struggle, emotional struggle, final-exam struggle, part-time job and school struggle, drop-out struggle, get-back-inand-finish struggle, get-back-in-andget that piece of paper struggle.

I think it's more than a piece of paper. Graduation time is a record stamped for me of a period of time in my life. For me, it will be 10 years since I graduated from high school that I graduate from Metropolitan Sate College of Denver. I reflect where and who I was in high 1994.' school- an insecure girl that listened to Duran Duran and Blondie. I see where I have been, and I sit with awe at what an education has done for me, no matter how long it took.

I didn't want to go to college. In the summer of 1984 I went to New York City and visited an aunt to fulfill my dreams of theatre. I was obsessed with Greta Garbo and went looking for her apartment somewhere on 54th Street. But aunt Elis told me school would be a good idea, and I was getting tired of all the grey buildings , and grilled cheese sandwiches. I wanted to be back in Boulder.

And at CU Boulder I endured for two years the chatter of the sorority girls or being one in 500 in a psychology class in Muenzinger Auditorium where we watched old black and white films of Milgram's obedience test. But I fell asleep. By then I had been disillusioned by theatre and I dropped out and transferred to an expensive photography school in

G

California. I was in the darkroom more than I was on the beach and got a hellish chemical rash. I endured sexist teachers and outrageous student loans to pay for Polaroids and 4x5 cameras. One day I walked out nauseous because I was stuck in the studio photographing blue balls on black glass. I had lost my art. I needed more. So I dropped out and moved to Berkeley with this boyfriend from another planet. I worked for a really weird camera shop on Telegraph Street and my boyfriend played guitar on the street for money, in addition to his threeh our-a-day job as a waiter at a men's club. We didn't get along.

And I came back to Boulder and I found out the party was over and I of had to start paying back those student loans. I worked answering telephone calls and calming down Southern women who didn't get their "Star" magazine in the mail.

Then I worked for a photographer, which I enjoyed. But still I realized there was this nagging need. I had to go back to school. I decided to endure one more time. I had to finish, because otherwise it would never leave me.

And I enrolled at MSCD. And then I found Kate Lutrey and the Office of Student Publications and The Metropolitan. And I can't help but feel my life has blossomed from this wonderful operation, and I am grateful to all.

Farewell. I have endured. I'm sure many graduates have similar stories. A student endures until the finish. That is graduation. Best wishes to all the MSCD graduates of 1994. Many thanks to our school, for the education and the fine material to keep The Metropolitan full. My thanks to my wonderful staff. And to all my teachers who have touched my life, I thank you.

It was a cold, frosty January morning in 1988 when I first set foot on the MSCD campus, returning to school after some 30-odd years in the world of business and domestic life. With fear and trepidation I stepped into Central Classroom 218 where I found myself surrounded with people who were young enough (the instructor included) to be my children. I almost turned tail and ran, but my thrifty Scottish conscience reminded me that after all, the tuition had been paid, so I might as well stay and get my money's worth out of at least the one class for which I was registered. One class session convinced me that my conscience had been right.

These men and women might be half my age (or less) , but we all had something in common - a love for ancient history.

Thirty-four years earlier I had obtained a degree in journalism and for years I had said , "When I retire I want to do something serious with my writing ." Well, retirement wasn 't too many years away in 1988. I finally decided that in a few years I would be a senior citizen regardless of what I was doing, so I might as well start doing something besides just going to work, coming home and vegetating in front of the TV. My children were on their own, and it was time to start living my life for me.

Now it's 1994, 40 years since I received that first degree, and on May 15 I will be receiving another undergraduate degree, this time in history and English. The past six years have been full of many and varied experiences. There have been struggles to get papers in on time, and occasionally there have been classes in which I have wondered at exam time what I was doing in there and if it was too late to drop the class, but of course I never seriously considered doing so. There have been times when I spent so much time at the library studying for a test that I seriously considered moving my bed down there and taking up temporary residence. Of course that would have violated zoning regulations or something, so I didn't do it.

All in all, though, these have been rich, rewarding years full of new friends and new experiences. My outlook has been broadened and expanded, and I have developed a greater love and understanding of all my fellow human beings.

I owe a debt of gratitude to so many people for making this happen. The history and English faculty and staff members have been wonderfully encouraging, although I know at times my questions and comments must have seemed naive to these people who have lived and traveled so widely and received their educations at so many prestigious institutions. My family, too, has been helpful and encouraging, although my son has never been able to understand why I was always so determined to get As and why a B was such a tragedy.

Maybe when he sees me at graduation with three honor cords around my neck, he'll understand how I feel.

And what lies ahead? I keep telling people that I'm going to just rest, relax and read trashy novels, but actually the future holds so much more .

There's my own writing, typing manuscripts for my husband who is also a writer, unfinished projects to complete, volunteer work in many areas, etc., etc., etc. So maybe the rest, relaxation and trashy novels will have to wait for my next life.

Some Religious Beliefs Cannot Just Lawfully Be Practiced In answer to the letter sent in by J.M. Schell "part of its parent organism." In that case, human (April 22), what I wished to point out to Ms. Str~ub, beings conceived in a petri dish are really only part of the petri dish. and what I wish to point out to Mr.Schell, is not that at conception "ensoulment" takes place.

If "real" science cannot determine when human "Ensoulment'' has nothing to do with the issue at life begins, what makes us think that it can deterhand. Mr. Schell is quite right in saying that science mine when human life ends? Imagine if the paradetermines "what is and what is not human life" and medics came to verify the "death" of Mr. Schell, but that it "attempts no definition of the incarnation of refused to pronounce him dead because "science souls in humans." But the question is whether or not can't prove" When human life ends (or better yet, what takes place at conception produces a new ensoulment in reverse: "Science can't prove when human being. By wasting so much of the soul leaves the human body"). his article disputing ensoulment, Mr. Contrary to Mr. Schell's statecan ment, Schell essentially avoids the primary 'Congress the Constitution does not question : Is it or is it not a human and must legis- state freedom "from" religion. As a life? In answering that question in the late on moral matter of fact, the First Amendment context of abortion, a distinction issues and it has says: "Congress shall make no law should be made between opinion respecting an establishment of reliand fact. It is a scientific, biological done so on many gion, or prohibiting the free ex.:1rcise fact that what is inside the womb of a occasions in the thereof." And although the First pregnant woman is a human being. It past.'

Amendment guarantees one's is a member of our species. That fact autonomy from other laws. Religions cannot be disproved (do we really consist of beliefs and practices, but need to quote the innumerable sciennot all beliefs can be lawfully practists who show this?). Is it the opinion ticed. The enslavement of peoples of Ms. Straub and Mr. Schell that we should be perof African descent cannot be lawfully practiced just mitted to kill unborn human beings (unborn membecause it happens to be someone's religious bers of our species), or is it the opinion of Ms. belief.

Straub and Mr. Schell that the union of a human Mr. Schell claims that "you can't legislate moralsperm and a human egg does not create a human ity." If Congress cannot legislate morality, then what being and that this can be proven (I hesitate to use exactly is the law against murder? What about the laws against rape and incest? Congress can and the word) "scientifically"? If that is the case, then let them tell us what it is (a chimpanzee? a chicken?), must legislate on moral issues and it has done so for never in recorded history has a woman given on many occasions in the past. I would present the birth to anything but a human being.

13th Amendment (the outlawing of slavery) as one Likewise, the fact that a "new being comes into example. existence at conception" is not "partially correct''; it Lastly, while it is true that "science" per se cannot "establish morality," it is certainly no less than is absolutely correct. The baby has its own genetic code that makes it completely different from not only crazy to say that "logic" can't "establish morality," the mother, but from every other human that has because "that's up to people." Logic belongs to peoever and will ever exist. By saying that the new ple. It's what makes us people.

Getting Involved with Wolf Reintroduction .. in Colorado and on Campus

¡1n 1982, the Colorado Wildlife Commission declared its "opposition to every person or entity, which may now or in the future suggest or plan the introduction of the wolf. In 1989 the state legislature reaffirmed the $2 bounty on wolf scalps. It is obvious that wolf reintroduction in Colorado will be a long uphill struggle.

Fortunately there is an organization in Colorado that deals with all aspects of wolf reintroduction . This organization is called Sinapu: The mailing address is PO Box 3243, Boulder, Colo., 80307. It has resources you can use to help educate people about wolf reintroduction. For instance, they have a slide show detailing the sorid history of wolf extermination in Colorado and the nation and the need for its reintroduction. Students can join Sinapu for $15 per year. You can form chapters on campus also.

The wolf is needed in Colorado to complete the ecosystem of the wilderness. Without complete ecosystems and travel corridors between the wilderness areas, how long can our wildlife last? Many social problems are discussed in The Metropolitan. These problems are ones that will exist as long as man exists. Let us work for the day when wolves and wilderness last as long as man exists.

THE METROPOLITAN

THE

Media are Ever Present in Society

METROPOLITAN

PATRICIA SYD'.'IEY STRAUB EDITOR IN CHIEF

ROBYN SCHWARTZ COPY El>ITOI{

The media can not tell you what to think, but it can tell you what to think about.

A recent study released by the Rocky Mountain Media Watch shows conclusively that the above ;quote is not a mere cliche but a reality when applied to Denver's local 1V news.

Among several of the more interesting, yet disturbing findings of the RMMW study, is the predominance of soft news, celebrity Items, crime stories and between anchor-person chatter aired nightly on •each of Denver's 1O p.m. newscasts.

The nightly newscasts on all three stations (4, 7, and 9) are 35 minutes in length. On average, commercials are 32.4 percent of all air time. Sports averages 12.2 percent, weather 9.6 percent and previews of upcoming items and chatter are 7.3 ·percent of air time. According to RMMW's report, this leaves the remaining 38.5 percent to cover all major news topics, state/local, national or international. · Crime stories dominate the news, consuming 54.5 percent of news time. The report showed that ·'two-thirds of news stories that dared to last longer than two minutes- due to that darn MlV generation limited attention span- were crime related.

Disaster stories, (fires, earthquakes etc.) average

15.2 percent of news time.

The report exposed the fact that stories on education, the economy, the environment, homelessness, health and poverty receive little to no coverage.

With what little news time allowed being monopolized with body bags, yellow police ribbons, and the grieving families of crime victims, it is little wonder that conservatives can laud the fact that "crime," not health care, is the number one concern of America, as if crime hySteria came out of thin air rather then being manufactured by the nightly news.

If the problems of health care, poverty or education received more than 50 percent of available news time- or even equal time for that matterand sensationalized crime stories, that just so happen to have exciting video footage, were to suddenly disappear, what Americans are allowed to think about, and therefore care about, would swing in another direction.

More Mail for Megan Reyes ··

ANTOINETTE VECCHIO

Dear Megan:

MSCD tries in various ways to attract students to this non-traditional campus using traditional affects.

For example, through the landscape we have a main quad area for people to sit and enjoy the outdoors. In this area, many people can be found playing volley-'ball, playing music or meditating. We have a student center for students to visit when they aren't in class.

Ninth Street Park has many old houses on campus, which is typical of most traditional colleges and universities. We also have an athletic program.

As a student at MSCD, I have experienced many ibenefits by participating in the athletic program. This type of program for me is vital to the college experience for various reasons. Some of these reasons include getting a top-of-the-line education, traveling to places that I have never been, meeting diverse types of people, and being involved with community ~rojects.

Through the help of the athletic program I can attend college. I am currently on a volleyball scholarship, and without this financial help I doubt that I would be able to attend college. The education that I have received thus far has been outstanding. The ,instructors that I have had have all been willing to help me in any way that they could as they have to all their students. With their help, and the help of many others, I have been able to do well academically. A contributor to my success in the classroom is the goal setting, discipline ·and time management skills that I have learned through participation in ...§ports.

Being a member of the women's volleyball, basketball and tennis teams for the last three years has given me a very positive experience. This past March, our volleyball team was very fortunate to travel to Australia to compete. This was the experience ""'Of a lifetime! We were able to learn about an unfamil- , iar culture, about the lifestyle there, and about the wildlife in Australra. We financed the trip individually over a one-year period by doing various and multiple fund-raisers. I doubt that I would have had the

chance to do this had it not been for athletics, especially at this point in my life.

Our women's basketball team made it to the NCAA national tournament for the first time in the school's history. Being a member of winning programs creates feelings in me that can't be described in words. Working as a team to achieve a common goal is something that I think is very important that I have learned by being involved in athletics. It is an awesome feeling when you know that you have worked hard to get to a certain spot and have attained your desired goal.

I have also been able to meet and learn about various types of people through athletics. People of many religions, ethnic backgrounds and social classes are represented in MSCD's athletic program. On the teams, and many of the people that the students athletes interact with, are people from various backgrounds. Athletics is something that all of these people have in common.

Athletics at MSCD has also done a lot for the children in the area. I have worked with children ages 8-18 in volleyball camps and clinics during the summer. Through this, I have seen students, who might not think about college, seriously consider attending college. Through these camps and clinics I think that children have some positive role models to follow when they may not have any otherwise. This has also given me the opportunity to realize that I want to teach when I finish with my degree.

As a student, and also an athlete at MSCD, I think that the benefits the athletic program brings not only to the campus, but to the individual students and to the community, are very vital and an extension of the college education experience. Athletics brings another traditional college atmosphere to this nontraditional campus.

THE METROPOLITAN

--<ti Literature with a Latin Flair with Raices Mestizas Master Storyteller Victor Villasenor Shares His Setbacks and Victories with an Auraria Crowd Patricia Sydney Straub EDITOR IN CHIEF

..

"No Spanish!" the teacher shouted at Victor Villasenor for speaking his native tongue on the first day of school. He was slapped if he spoke it again. Chicano author Villasenor used his dramatic talent as a master storyteller to recount to a full audience at St. Cajetan's April 21 the anguish, shame, hate and confusion he felt while growing up Mexican amid California's Anglo culture.

With his dynamic presence, emotional voice and expressive hands, Villasenor told stories from his book "Rain of Gold" as the keynote speaker at the second annual "Raices Mestizas: 26 Years of Literature in Aztlan." He made the setting intimate as he coaxed people to empty seats and ushered high school students to sit up front on the floor to hear about life, love, pain and his book, which he held up periodically to show pictures.

The symposium brought together local Chicano/Mexicano authors. Yolanda Ortega-Ericksen, associate dean for Student Life at MSCD, opened the event, addressing the students: "This is for you, because it is very important that through literature or through any of the arts ... we are able to tell our own stories," she said.

During his speech/performance Villasenor recounted his life in three parts: school, Mexico, and self - becoming a human being. Villasenor grew up in Oceanside, Calif., the child of Mexican immigrants who fled the Revolution. In school he was taught to be ashamed that he was a Mexican. He began to learn that Spanish was bad, and he began to distrust his family, his culture, and therefore began to hate himself and hate his parents.

Villasenor acted out his school days, like when a friend once said, "'I can't

Auraria police officer before coming onstage, and the officer told him his son was not bringing home As in school. "The problem's not in his son, the problem is himself," Villasenor said. "What makes us think that As are necessary? I have a son who is working so hard he's coming home with straight As. I tell him to knock it off. I tell him to get Cs and Ds and relax a bit. Mira, life was meant to be a joy, not to be programmed into being an A student.

RELAX. Just love your son the way he is."

After Villasenor's talk, workshops were presented on short story and novel writing with local authors Geraldina Lawson, Manuel Ramos, and Lalo Delgado. Anthony Vigil, Mandy Mendrano and Margie Domingo conducted a poetry workshop, and the Su Teatro Latina Lab held a session on playwriting.

"It's going to be

tremendous." Dennis admits he's grown attached to his sunny location on the Union's second floor. "There's lots of light here," he said.

The Tivoli space will receive some indirect sun, but will be lighted primarily by old fluorescent fixtures that were uncovered during the renovation.

The game room's pool tables will be have their bumpers, rails,and felts replaced over the summer, and new Belgian balls and cue sticks have been purchased, Bryan said. In addition, new arcade games will be added, and the game room's hours of operation will be extended.

The Mission has been a popular meeting place for students, and it's the only place on campus that serves alcohol. After 12 years tending bar and providing a sympathetic ear to his clientele, Field Majors will be closing down the Mission, which won't be making the transition to the Tivoli. The Mission will close for good on May 18.

"I don't like it, but it's business," said Majors about the impend-

ing move and the demise of the Mission. "I'll be involved with the school one way or another," said Majors, an MSCD graduate. He is entertaining the idea of a Cajun restaurant and bakery in the Tivoli, but the plan still needs to be approved by the Tivoli Food Committee.

Some employees who work in the union will find their positions eliminated. Professional Food Management, who operate the Student Union cafeteria, will vacate the space by May 15.

"We'll all get jobs somewhere else," said David Jourgensen, a cashier at the cafe for the past six years. "I'll miss the convenience (of working here) since I'm a student, but I'm not going to miss it, 'cause I haven't had a raise in a year and a half. Most of the employees here feel the same way. I don't think anyone's sad to see it go."

The new Tivoli Union, or Tivoli Student Union, or just the Tivoli, will be open when students come back to campus on August 22, and a grand opening celebration is scheduled for Thursday, August 25.

The First Year Experience classes are·courses designed to help make a successful transition to college and to achieve educational goals. College will seem a warmer, more welcoming place and the demands much less intimidating after taking a First Year Experience class. Helping hands are available to assist in deciding what courses to take and to answer questions about general studies, majors, minors and electives. In addition, there are opportunities to take advantage of tutoring, workshops, and counseling services.

In conjunction with MSCD's Counseling Center, the First Year Experience classes are provided with Metro Connection Peer Educators. A Peer Educator is a student that has college experience and can address personal and college concerns of the students enrolled in the First Year Experience classes. The Peer Educator participates in classroom discussions and acts as a resource to students addressing questions posed to them.

They can assist a student with "short cuts" to sometimes lengthy college procedures like financial aid and registration problems. The Peer Educators keep the students informed wit4 activities available to students on campus with hopes to get them involved in the many programs offered to students. Peer Educators are students that have made their college careers a success and take this opportunity to share their tricks with new students.

The Peer Educators participate in weekly training sessions where they are able to enhance their knowledge of topics that are of concern to college students. In these training sessions they also develop presentation skills so that the information .. obtained can be passed along to the First Year Experience classes. In addition to the training sessions, the Peer Educators are involved in weekly discussion groups to share the progress of the First Year Experience classes they assist with. In this discussion group the peers can gain insight from each other and from the advisors for the Metro Connections Program. There are opportunities for the Peer Educators to do extensive training in areas that are pertinent for students by utilizing the BACCHUS & GAMMA Peer Education Network.

BACCHUS (Boost Alcohol Consciousness Concerning Health of University Students) of the U.S. is the oldest student organization committed to the education, training and support for peer prevention of alcohol abuse. Total membership exceeds • 13,000 collegiates potentially impacting enrollments of more that 4-million. At MSCD the Metro Connections Peer Educators participate in nationwide awareness programs like National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week, Safe Spring Break program, and the Zero Hero program for designated drivers. With BACCHUS membership the Metro Connections Peer Educators have an incredible resource available to them providing a nationwide network of students to connect with.

Wow! The end of the semester is only two weeks away. For many MSCD ~tudents there will be choices to be made. "Where

•·

will I go?" "What will I do?" Choices...choices ...choices... , maybe this year's theme of "Work Hard, Play Hard. Play Safe, Play Sober" can give you some ideas on how to spend your break.

If you're like most students, you've worked hard enough this semester and deserve a good rest from the books. If you do have to study, try to take some time off for yourself and enjoy the great summer weather of Colorado.

Occasionally students tend to confuse playing hard with drinking hard. This is e_specially true if we choose to spend a week or so in Florida, or in Texas at Padre Island, or in·the mountains skiing or camping. Even just staying here in Denver and going out with friends to "release" after a long week of school or work. Whether or not you stay or go, this year's theme of "Play Safe, Play Sober" is not as bad as it seems. There are many ways to enjoy yourself without having to consume alcohol.

One of the best ways to have fun is to gather a bunch of friends together and play volleyball, basketball or softball. There are the beautiful mountains to enjoy mountain biking and camping with friends. Campus Recreation has all the equipment needed for the above activities at prices that students can easily afford, including mountain bikes and all the camping equipment needed for a great trip to the mountains. Contact Campus Rec at 556-3210. If sports is not your forte then try checking out a movie at the Tivoli 12 which has discounted prices for students with a valid student l.D. There is also the Star Trek exhibit at the Museum of Natural History.

Here are some guidelines to keep in mind if you choose to drink, wherever you go: Use responsibility when drinking: Use a designated driver or ask for a ride Know your limits - a bottle of beer, a glass of wine, a shot of liquor each equal one drink Keep in mind weight does make a difference - the less a person weighs, the faster the alcohol is absorbed Always remember the ZERO, ONE , TWO, THREE concept: ZERO - It's o.k. not to drink 0 NE - One drink per hour TWO - It takes two to have safe sex THREE - No more than three drinks per day, and never daily.

...

Whatever you decide to do with your break, whether it's going to the beach or going to work, remember to "Work Hard. Play Hard. Play Safe, Play Sober."

TuE METROPOLITAN

MSCD Theatre Presents 'A Breath of Spring' Elizabeth Gregg THE METROPOUTAN The adventure of life can be refreshing in itself. "A Breath of 1._,pring" is a reader's theatre production about the beauty of life.

The two-part production at the MSCD theatre require two directors: Lorraine Scott for "Rhythm of Life" and David T. Kottenstette for "Dandelion ~ Wine."

'A Breath of Spring,' as reader's theatre, attempts to bring what the author has written to the audience and then let the audience decide what they want to do with it, according to Scott, .. who teaches theatre at MSCD. Thus, the entire audience can leave the production with each individual having a different interpretation of the theatre piece, she said. Reader's theatre also differs from conventional theatre in the small num... ber of props, costumes and other dramatic values it uses.

As the play opens, the audience is introduced to the theme of Part 1, "Rhythm of Life. " Actors together say: "For the rhythm of life has a powerful beat, Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet, Rhythm on the inside, rhythm on the street, And the rhythm of life has a powerful beat."

Although few props are used and Because this is said numerous times throughout "Rhythm of Life," the audi- actions are kept to a minimum, the play, ence gets the main message actors are the voices of the actors and the actions trying to portray through each scene. themselves enable the audience to fully Days after attending the production, the visualize each scene.

"I was madly in love with a woman going back in time right from the very in South Africa," says Elyot, played by first line of the piece.

"I'm alive! I'm alive!" says a young Eric Tolley.

"Did she have a ring in her nose?" boy named Doug. Guillermo DeHerrera says Amanda, played by Cindy plays the boy whose life is portrayed Compton. Each scene also shows how throughout the production. From the humans can talk on and on but never scenes of his summer in a small town, I really communicate true feelings. could feel what life involved as a child

during that time period. By the end of the play, I had captured the essence of the meaning of "dandelion wine."

"Never to die but go on forever. It's the magic in the bottles," Doug says.

Dreams, memories and summertime life is what the wine represents. All of these factors can be saved in the bottle. Doug deals with the adventure of life through growing, shaping memories, sharing friends and friendships, struggling to comprehend change and death, and dreaming of new beginnings.

When the production focuses on a life other than Doug's, however, the script becomes confusing. One incoherent scene involved a colonel in South America.

The funniest character in the production is Tom, excellently portrayed

by Sean Lambert. Tom, Doug's brother, is a "nerd" who had the audience laughing time and time again. Tom knows facts such as the number of times he has brushed his teeth, 6, 783. Lambert played the colonel as well. By his voice, one might think Adam Sandler, the opera man from Saturday Night Live, was acting in the MSCD production.

Leaving the theatre, I felt rejuvenated. The play instilled a sense of hope.

Life is an adventure which must be fully enjoyed.

The MSCD theatre presented "A Breath of Spring" through April 24.

peninsula fell to enemy troops and the march of death began.

Seventy-five thousand captured Allied soldiers, 1,200 of them American, were starved and brutalized by their Japanese captors as they were forced on a 62-mile trek out of Bataan to a prison camp. Ten thousand died before reaching the destination.

Word of the ordeal didn't reach American newspapers for nearly two years after it happened, and by that time 40 percent of those who survived the grueling march died of disease and mistreatment at

the prison camp.

Why not consider a Master's degree in Those who lived to tell shocked and aviation from the world's leading enraged America with stories about the aviation and aerospace education atrocities of the prison camp and the nightinstitution, offered through.the mare that came to be known as the Bataan DENVER CENTER OF Death March. The news strengthened the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical country's resolve to defeat Japan.

University Although the length and casualty rate of the memorial march pales in comparison •Master of Aeronautical Science (MAS) to that of the original, the MSCD cadets •Master of Business Administration experienced firsthand the tough physical demand of a long-distance road march as in Aviation (MBA/A) they traveled the 25-mile course across desert terrain.

-Convenient evening classes Bruce Killion, an MSCD senior who -Accelerated 9-week terms participated in the march, said he doubts -No GRE or GMAT required that he could have marched the distance -Fully accredited covered by soldiers at Bataan.

Terms beginning:

'"Those guys had something more then I had," Killion said, adding that the motivation to finish the real trek was march or die "My life wasn't on the line," he said.

Ward Redshaw, a 71-year-old veteran of World War II who was stationed in the Philippines about 50 miles from the start of the Bataan Death March, told the hundreds of soldiers and cadets who participated in the memorial march about the severe thirst and tortures endured by the soldiers at Bataan.

Allied prisoners received a small quantity of water once a day and were frequently ordered to sit in the sweltering sun for hours. Such "sun treatments, as they were called, severely weakened the prisoners.

Those who couldn't keep pace and fell out of the march were shot, beaten to death or beheaded on the spot."

Redshaw said he heard of soldiers who

had dragged and carried their country~en several miles to prevent ~~m from ~eeting such a fate. Hence the ongm of the 'buddy r system." Redshaw said the system has been used in combat since.

Jason Novachick, an MSCD student and cadet participant in the memor.ial march, said he was 'smoked' after marching 25 miles and could empathize with the suffering of the soldiers at Bataan. He said the..., hardest part of the march was not quitting.

Novachick, who finished the march in eight and a half hours, said completion was richly rewarding.

"I was so proud to have been there and actually have finished," he said.

Of the seven cadets that began the march, five-finished, a grim reminder of those who fell out 52 years ago and put the word "death" in the Bataan Death March.

MSCD Boxer Showing Her Stuff in the Ring Michael BeDan THE METROPOUTAN

-

Angelita means "little angel."

If you meet Angelita Rodriguez, you' d be hard-pressed not to see the connection. She is a 5-foot-7-inch, petite college woman with a glowing smile, but if you watched the tape of her first amateur boxing match, or saw her in a sweaty boxing gym training, you 'd see the other side of this little angel.

Rodriguez is a 19-year-old student at MSCD and comes from a family rich with athletes. Her grandfather Rodolfo "Corky" Gonzales is an inductee of the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame. Gonzales was a world class lightweight boxer in the early 1950s and in 1954-55 was the third-ranked lightweight in the world.

Most of the men in her family have or do box, Rodriguez said. She is the first woman, however.

Boxing is far from being her only athletic endeavor. She played on the men's junior varsity baseball team at North High School in Denver and she played on the varsity tennis team at North as well. Her brother, Arturo

Rodriguez, plays tennis for MSCD and said he envies her natural athletic talent.

"She can pick up any sport so fast," Arturo said. "She tried out for basketball in high school and made the junior varsity team and had never really played before. She even played a bit of varsity that year."

Rodriguez has fought just once and doesn't have any bouts scheduled anytime soon. She boxes for the disciplined workout and for the enjoyment of training, she said.

"I can feel so bad one day and go in there and let out some aggression out," she said. "I feel content, it makes me stay focused and it's good self-defense."

Rodriguez is not just an athlete. She is active on campus as well: as the vice president of Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan.

"There really aren't a lot of female role models for young Chicanas," she said. "I think I can be one."

MEChA is an organization at MSCD that promotes cultural awareness and is a support for Chicano students. Rodriguez see LITTLE ANGEL page 29

The long grind of the spring tennis season is over for MSCD's men's and women's teams.

• The two-day post season begins April 29 and 30. The Colorado Athletic Conference title is up for grabs. Both teams finished the regular season on April 23 with winning records, the men at 17-1 and the women with 8-5.

The men finish with the best record in MSCD history, Assistant Coach Mike Bania said. The women played a tough schedule facing the University of Denver and the University of Southern Colorado twice, and the Air Force Academy once, ..-accounting for their five losses. The men's only loss came against USC, a 9-0 drubbing at the hands of the conference leaders.

The men's team is optimistic about their chances now that the varsity roster is ~ at full strength with the return of Chris Martinez midway through the season.

Martinez still suffers from back pain but said he would be ready for conference.

The men will be led by Martin Coe at the top singles and doubles spot. No. 2 singles player Jake Keller, the 1994 sea• son's Most Valuable Player, will team with Coe at No. 1 doubles. Arturo Rodriguez, last year's MVP, will play

u1c question.

What takes place every four years, is watched by more people than the Olympics, and crowns the only true world champion of any professional sport?

The answer is the World Cup. For the first time, the most glamorous, competitive sporting event in the world is taking place in the United States, and it's guaranteed to tum this country on end.

Yes, traditional American sport fans beware, the sport you try to ignore every day will make Major League Baseball look like your kids little league game, the Super Bowl look like a junior high football game and the NBA look like nothing more than a Broadway production.

The United States was given the opportunity to host the World Cup in 1986, but was not able to put together an impressive enough bid in front of FIFA (the governing body of international soccer), and lost the bid to our neighbor to the south, Mexico.

The following year, the United States Soccer Federation, along with various cities that wished to host the monthlong tournament, put a bid together no one could refuse, not even FIFA. Out of more than 20 sites that wished to host the World Cup, nine were given the opportunity to host what will be the greatest sporting event seen on American Soil.

In this tournament of tradition, only in the United States would someone make a new one, playing soccer indoors

at

e ontiac er ome m etro1t.

The Silverdome, like all other sites that did not feature natural grass, was required to install sod for the tournament, but that is indoors, you might say.

Well, yes, through the miracle of technology, someone was smart enough to figure out how to keep grass alive inside a dome.

Pretty cool, huh?

The games in Detroit will be the first FIFA-sanctioned games played under a roof. Some like the idea, some don't.

The indoor grass was put to the test last year in a tournament featuring teams that would be playing in the Championships this year, and only had good things to say about the indoor playing field.

Along with Detroit, games will be played in Pasedina Calif., including one semifmal game and the finals, Stanford Stadium in San Francisco, the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Fla., for those who wish to see Mickey in between games.

R .F. K. Stadium in Washington D.C., Soldier Field in Chicago and Foxboro Stadium in Boston will all host pool play and some second-round games along with Giants Stadium in New Jersey, which will see the second semifinal game.

Qualification for the 1994 World Cup started one month after the final whistle blew of the 1990 final, which saw Germany top Argentina, a reverse of the 1986 final.

Nearly every country, province and speck on the map attempted to qualify

or e team e qualifying matches.

Only two teams are given automatic bids: Cup-holder Germany and the host country.

Will the United States have a chance?

Yes they will.

Though not favored to win the coveted trophy, the United States will be fielding a team that, for the most part has been competing as a team for over two years, and along with a few foreignbased players, will possibly be the best team to ever wear the red, white and blue.

If you are iooking for a ticket to any matches, good luck. They have been sold out for nearly two years, but have no fear, every game will be televised.

ABC and ESPN will show the matches, uninterrupted, so go to the bathroom before the game and at halftime, because if you get up, you are bound to miss something So get ready.

From June 17 through July 17, the United States and the world will see something Americans might never have the chance to see again, and who knows, those ethnocentric, red necked, channel flipping soccer haters might see what the rest of the world knows: what a great game soccer is, what athleticism the players have, and discover that World Cup soccer makes any sport found on TV the rest of the year seem like one big advertisement.

Sit back, relax and enjoy what will be the greatest thing to ever come to this country.

traveled to Arizona with MEChA for the National MEChA Conference April 1417. Her ties with MEChA are a high priority in her life, she said.

"MEChA has kept me. in school," she said. "My classes at Metro are like culture shock. I am sometimes the only Chicano in class, but my high school was 90 percent Chicano. What MEChA does is stress keeping your culture and your ethnicity."

"I might go to New Mexico (University of Mexico-Highlands) next year and play softball," she said. "I would like to play tennis too, maybe here at Metro. I'm just not sure."

Angelita and Arturo both played on Denver Prep League city championship teams for North High School.

Arturo has won the Colorado Athletic Conference singles title at No. 3 singles for MSCD, but says his sister is the best athlete.

"She is more gifted than me as an athlete," he said. "She has done everything."

Rodriguez credits her brother as her inspiration to begin playing sports at a young age.

"I looked up to him," she said. "He played baseball, so I played baseball, he boxed, so I did, and the same with tennis too."

Rodriguez was forced to make a tough decision in high school. She had been playing baseball since she was a kid and after starting the season her junior year with the boy's junior varsity baseball team, she was told she could not play on the boys team. She was forced to not play ball at all, or to play women's softball.

Rodriguez chose to play girls softball.

Rodriguez recommend~ boxing to any girl who wants to get in shape.

"It was hard at first because you can't lead off in softball," she said. "I got called out for leading off a lot at first."

"I would encourage any girl to try boxing for self-defense and for the workout." she said.

Is there a definable gay culture? Does a gay culture really exist? And can a group whose primary link is se~ ual desire truly call itself a culture? In his best-selling, provocative and controversial book, The Culture of Desire: Paradox and Perversity in Gay Lives Today, Frank Browning explores the worlds gay men have created. In the 25 years since the Stonewall riots and the ten years since the emergence ofAIDS, homosexuals have come out from the shadows and have staked out the frontier of contemporary living-from homophobia, political activism and public sex to public outcry, the invention of self and the redefinition of the American family.

JAM ROE

Norma McCorvey was a pregnant unwed mother of two when she took her fight for a legal abortion to the Supreme Court.

Mccorvey wasn't anyone's idea of a role model in 1973, a gritty, working-poor woman from Louisiana who couldn't face the psychological pain of carrying an unplanned pregnancy to term, only to give up the child for adoption. She initially sought a back-alley abortion but, terrified by what she found, fled. Shortly afterward, she was introduced to a team of public-spirited attorneys and gained a new identity:Jane Roe, the plaintiff in Roe v. Wade, the court case that guaranteed freedom of choice for all American women .

Ironically, the Supreme Court decision came too late to help McCorvey. After giving birth and surrendering the infant for adoption, she suffered profound depression, attempted suicide and spent many years as a recluse, drifting from city to city and job to job. In 1989 she revealed her identity to a reporter, choosing to end her years of silence and her privacy, and marking her emergence as a public figure./ Am Roe is Norma McCorvey's story-please welcome her as she shares it with us and signs her newly-released book. 123 hardcover
