Traffic solutions needed $20,000 study to· be paid by Denver and Auraria Christopher Anderson Senior Staff Writer

''

..

The death of University of Colorado at Denver employee Robin Haggerty last September, after being struck by a car while walking across Speer Boulevard, has ·spurred a traffic study around Auraria. The Auraria Higher Education Center, in coordination with the City of Denver, has hired traffic consulting firm BRW Inc. to analyze and make recommendations to improve traffic safety around Auraria. The main focus will be on Speer Boulevard, said Dennis Royer, director of traffic operations for Denver Public Works. Royer said the cost of the $20,000 study will be split fifty-fifty between Auraria and the City of Denver. A letter written to BRW Inc. from the Speer Traffic Committee outlines concerns about the busy street, said Pali Bonati, committee member and Auraria's director of Parking. In part, the letter reads, "It has taken the death of a student employee at UCD to bring the seriousness of the traffic problems on Speer Boulevard to our full attention." It's unlikely that pedestrian underpasses or overpasses will be considered a solution. Instead, the committee recommends traffic corrections. ''We feel the solution lies within these changes as opposed to building a costly overpass across Speer Boulevard," the letter continues. There is also a concern for the disabled who take longer to cross the busy thoroughfare, Bonati said. The · letter states that pedestrian traffic signals are too quick - even for those without any disability. The letter recommends the study consider the following solutions: • Simultaneously stop all the traffic flow on both sides of Speer for pedestrians, inclucfug vehicles turning onto Speer. • Increase "walk" time for pedestrians. • Police the speed limit and jaywalking restrictions on Speer near the Auraria Campus. Issue warnings and tickets to both traffic and pedestrian offenders. • Lessen the frequency of traffic signal changes to offset the longer periods of time allowed to cross so that it doesn't slow down the flow of traffic in this

area. ·).

Haggerty, mother of a 2-year-old ~irl, was struck by a car at Speer and Lawrence in September 1994. Police reports said Haggerty was jaywalking. However, eyewitnesses said she had the walk signal.

Campus library strained Christopher Anderson Senior Staff Writer Students using the already understaffed Auraria library will spend more time in line during the next two months while the downtown Denver library is closed. Orphaned patrons of the closed library are expected to frequent Auraria's library. While the Denver library undergoes reconstruction, the Auraria library will pickup the slack said Camil.a Alire Auraria' s director of library administra~ tion. This extra use of the library comes at a time when underfunding by the three schools has forced staff cuts at the library. In October, Alire asked Auraria's three schools for $130,000 to cover mandated raises, but the money was not received. The result was budget cuts, meaning less operating hours, materials, staff and stu~ent workers for the library. Alire said serving the off-campus users isn't the problem - it's their phone calls. ·The public, unfamiliar with Auraria, calls the various library departments, reducing the time library staff can serve the in-house public. The reference desk must also take the time to log in a person who is a first-time user at the Auraria library. Until its reopening date of March 25, the Denver libraiy is offering some paid staff members to aid Auraria. Meanwhile, officials at the three Auraria institutions are working out a new budget for the next three years.

The Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration at Denver Civic Center Park Monday was reminiscent of a campaign stop with Colorado's democratic leaders lined up to hear President Clinton speak. Rep. Patricia Schroeder, Sen. Ben Nighthorse <;ampbell, and Secretary of Transportation and former Denver Mayor Federico Pena were among the Democratic leaders taking part in opening ceremonies for the celebration of what would have been King ' s 66th birthday. He was assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tenn. see CLINTON page 5

Change ·or fortune for Tivoli vendor Jeff Stratton Editor Almost e~actly a year from the day they departed, the operators of The Mandarin Chinese restaurant are back in the Tivoli. On Dec . 17, 1993, The Mandarin lost their lease at the Tivoli' s food court without a promise to return when the new Student Union opened last semester. But on Dec. 19, 1994, The Mandarin reopened in the new Tivoli Student Union food court on the first floor. Disappointed after leaving, and feeling that the eight years they had spent on the third floor gave them no seniority, owners Paul and Eui Kim and their son, Alex, sat on their assets while waiting to see if the Auraria Higher Education Center would find a spot for them in the new Tivoli. ''The end result is that we're here," . Alex Kim said. "We did go through some pretty tough times when we were upstairs. When the building was only 40 to 50 percent occupied, as dead as it ever was, we had a hard time making a profit. There were problems with access to the Tivoli, there was always lots of construe-

tion ... but now, things are more student oriented." Auraria had considered one corporate tenant instead of several small tenants to occupy the food court, but Alex pointed out that having smaller businesses will be to everyone's benefit. "I think in the long run having to deal with the small, private owners is going to be better, because we can be much more flexible than a big company." Eui Kim is responsible for formulating the recipes that the Mandarin has used over the years. Students familiar with the old Mandarin Cottage and Barbeque will find most menu items and prices haven't changed. There were yards of red tape to cut before Auraria and the The Metropolitar¥Jane Raley Mandarin had a formal agreement BACK IN BUSINESS: After a one year hiatus, The Mandarin Is serving customers again, and "we were pretty desper- again.

Jeff Stratton Editor The Turnhalle in the Tivoli Student Union was transformed into a darkened theater on Jan. 13 during the fourth annual Martin Luther King Jr. Peace Breakfast. A cine-montage presentation titled "Journey of Peace" documented the breakfast's thematic mission statement with images and words from Dr. King and forceful, sometimes disturbing images outlining the injustices and struggles of the civil rights movement. With the soulful intonations of singer/pianist Hayward Hobbs and the fearless, direct narration of Carolyn Champion-Stone, the 300 attendees at the

breakfast were treated to an audio/visual documentary of King and his work. Champion-Stone' s skillful interpretations of King's words underscored the event's goals - to foster understanding and harmony on a campus threatened by racial tension. The breakfast also honored student, faculty and community leaders who have reflected the teachings of King in their accomplishments. In an atmosphere heavy with emotion, the individuals who were nominated and chosen were presented.their awards. Metro Student Government Assembly President Megan Reyes .accepted her student award accompanied by two of her three sons.

Dr. Margie Ball-Cook, a Metro Nursing professor, received the faculty/staff award. Tom Rauch of the American Friends Service Committee was awarded a community award for his commitment to nonviolent activism and his roles in antinuclear protests. After being introduced by Pauline Reece, Metro's director of Recruitment and Outreach, the Rev. Clyde Miller Jr. accepted his community award, saying to the crowd who had heard the other recipients trying to keep theit ·speeches short, "Do you dare come to a gathering such as this and try to limit what a .black preacher can say?"

) Time for a Polish Dear Metro Connections: My boyfriend is from a wealthy family. Recently, he asked me to marry him. This would require I give up my plans to go on to grad school Fall 1995 for a few years because he wants to have a year-long honeymoon traveling around the world. He says it would give me more real life experience rather than sitting in some classroom. Would travel give me more real life experience? Although I love this handsome, wonderful man dearly, I feel I should go ahead with my grad school plans because I've put it off for four years. I need an answer somewhat urgently, ash~ wants to have a Valentine's Day wedding. Oh, and another thing, he is arranging to have a large sum of money deposited into my own personal account as a wedding gift. He also doesn't believe in prenuptial agreements. Signed: Confused in Colorado Dear Confused: There are some enviable and alarming aspects to your predicament. I think every woman fantasizes about being swept off her · feet by a wonderful, handsome, rich guy. Some women would even forget about love for the sake of the money but it seems you've snagged both. Traveling around the world is a great opportunity and it is true in a sense, that you will certainly experience a life you haven't seen before. Traveling does provide insight into a kind of life we don't usually see here in the states. Especially if you travel to out-of-the-way places. However, I am concerned about a few things: 1) He reveals a lack of respect for your education by the implication that travel would offer "more real life experience". Travel doesn't necessarily reveal "real" life, just a different aspect of life as other people know it. Living abroad, not just traveling through a country, offers the greatest experience of life overseas. 2) Travel or living overseas·can isolate a person. He wants to travel for a year or more. Do you want to be away from your family and friends for so Jong? While he is your best friend, as he should be, it is better to maintain a broaderbased support system, especially in a freshly started marriage. It can be rough. If you decide to do this, you will be in a totally unique and alien environment with only him to comfort and advise you. What if you're pissed off at him! To whom would you turn? 3) The only thing he has offered is money. He has asked you to leav~ your support system and relinquish your immediate plans for grad school (which may have long-term consequences if you cannot find a grad program to take you when and if you return). In a sense, you may be throwing away your entire education for a handsome rich guy. Another thing about the money bothers me. Could it be an enticement hiding a control freak? If so, are you willing to pay the price - your independence and choice for oodles of money? What makes yours uniquely yours may be gone permanently. 4) It would be delightful if you could get it all: The education, the travel, the money and the guy. Would he compromise? For instance wait on the marriage. He is in way too much of a rush to tie the knot. I wonder why. I think a compromise on his part demonstrates his respect, trust, and admiration for you in addition to showing his flexibility. If he is unwilling to compromise, be warned. You may spend the rest of your life giving up what is important to you for the sake of a handsome, rich guy. I don't think that is so wonderful.

Jeff Stratton

Jeff, Jeff, Jeff! Nobody wants to censor or restrict constructive dialog on the subject of immigration nor infringe on the First Amendment rights of anyone as your editorial of January 13 claims. I echo your analysis that the racist flier distributed on campus last semester contained "vile and vicious" _statements and it is important that the Auraria community realize the content of the flier had statements commonly found in hate literature. The flier, authored by the "Students Against the Brown Peri.I" had two objectives: intimidate Latinos and desensitize its readers. The flier did manage to threaten the safety of students on the campus, particularly those who are Latino, with its degenerate and malicious statements. The flier promoted violence against Mexican immigrants, with statements of putting bounties on their heads and sending them "back to Mexico in body bags." A person only needs to pick up a paper to realize there are plenty of demented people in the world who would take action on such smut. Yes, it was intimidating People have become so desensitized by hate literature because they, like you, believe that the flier "was ignorant and preposterous enough that it was difficult to take seriously." Interestingly, two weeks ago the Colorado Bureau of Investigation issued warrants for twenty individuals who were building an arsenal of automatic weapons for the purpose of ethnic intimidation. They took this type oi literature seriously. Everyone should be concerned with this type of propa- ganda being distributed arol.f'd-campus because no one here should have to fear for their safety. As a result of the threats made by the flier and other incidents of ethnic intimidation - misogynist fliers and anti-Semitic vandalism - on campus, the Latino community urged Dr. Kaplan to petition AHEC to

identify the distributors-of the flier and develop proactive measures to prevent their continuance. An investigation does not mean that the authors will be persecuted for their political beliefs as you contended. An investigation to identify the authors of the flier would not infringe on their First Amendment rights. In that many students feel threatene~ by this flier, as well as other incidents, it is important that the campus police know who is making threats against the Auraria community and to impede any violence associated with the hate literature. AHEC, MSCD, CCD, and UCO have implemented proactive measures to create a safe campus environment, even though there have been no leads in the case. Now, Jeff, you said you believe that flier and the letter sent to Dr. Kaplan was not from the same person. I agree with you. But, that is not to say that the letter wasn't from the same group, only that they were written by two different people. Additionally, it is not important whether "Students Against the Brown Peril" are from this campus or actually students; rather it is safety of student on this campus. I subscribe to your view that an open debate on immigration issues is important but the flier did not seek to debate the issue, rather it was designed to intimidate and desensitize its readers. Although the flier did not mention Proposition 187, it was timed on the coattails of the California amendment and the · xenophobia in this country. I agree with your authors quote "On the intellectual seas, there is enough liOOm for every ship,to lijiil with its flag unfurled." In an intellectual debate information · should not be confused with intimidation and malice, th~ latter was the purpose and inte_ rit of the flier.

Editor: In response to J.M. Schell's editorial, "Don't demand equality by force," (The Metropolitan, Jan. 13), has he considered that he might be reaping what he sowed? I can almost appreciate his anger. Suddenly, white males are being called upon to share the wealth and it's totally alien to them. My best friend once said to me, "If you think white males were 'bad' when they came to plunder, wait until you make them share the loot. Then you'll see ferociousness." It seems easy for white males to shout, "I am not responsible for the sins of my forefathers," while accepting the rewards of those sins. It is easy for them to forget that they got this land by stealing it from the American Indians and by stealing Africans from their land to cultivate it. They can also ignore the fact that they forbade Indians and Africans their language and their religion while denying them access to the

dominant religion because they feared that God might see these colored children of his as animals also. It was easier to oppress them if they were seen as soulless, no more than mutts wandering the land. Only in the past few years have white males had to share anything, and they still aren't sharing very much, otherwise black unemployment would not be five times the national rate. Instead of railing at powerless people of color, white males should be demanding that their government, the same one that busted unions and stomped on civil rights, address the economic issues that are oppressing us all. Schell should remember his parting paragraph: "If you till the soil, if you plant the seed, if you irrigate and prune the weeds, whatever grows there is yours."

Music stores in malls usually fall into the category of generic outlets such as Musicland, where pedestrian Top 40 schlock is all that's available.

SWANS The Great Annihilator Young God/Touch and Go All electric flash and evil sex, Swans' thirteenth album, and first studio effort since 1992's outstanding Love of Life, continues the perfection of Swans unmistakable whirlpool of darkest night and blinding sun. Fantastic sounds and echoes edge in and out of the mix like phantoms - ghostly shadows around the comers of Swans' cinematic screen. Swans core members Mlchaet R. Gira and Jarboe are backed by the same musicians who played on 1987's Immortal epic Children cf God, while adding a sharper edge, courtesy of Mlnlstry!Rev<::o drummer Bill Relflln. Annlhllator doesn't simply cast Jarboe in her usual role of providing a mellow counterpoint to Glra's crucified agony - on "Mother/Father" she's allowed to front her own heavlerthan-thou outfit. Although Swans are withoutquestion the scariest, most muscularly powerful band in America, it is hard to take tn their overwhelming manifesto all at once, even when the liner notes ask the Ustener to endure It in one sitting. When Gira growls "Every second that you sulferlls a loss that l gain," it's hard not to feel the crosshalrs being trained on your he4d. "Alcohol The Seed," with Glra's dark croon of ·1 need alcohol" and martial drums approaching, lnciteyone to run to the liquor store. Listening to Swans Is like being kissed and stroked by a beautiful lover who you know is going to pull out that knife and $tab you. With more genuinely evil imagery than Glenn Danzig could harness on a good day, coupled with a graceful flair and a disturbing, out-of-focus beauty, Swans are not about entertainment. They ~re abOut dominance and submission ond the loss of morality and faith. Originally a NYC sludge/noise outfit with Swiss connections, Gira and Jarboe are now located in the backwoods obscurity of n.iral Georgia. Since their music has evolved from evoking the prison of urban squalor to more open spaces, it fits. It's hard to Imagine, through Gira's lyrics# him being happy surrounded by people. A book of his stories and lyrics, The Consumer, offers a terrifying glimpse Into the demons tha't propel his art. It will be published via Henry Rollins' 2.13.61 late March. . A' z Like looking out the window at the end of the world, the maelstrom that Is The Great Annihllator offers no light at the end of the tunnel, just the promise that, like a bleak, black hole, the massive gra'Vity of Swans enormous power will keep pulling them toward greatness. Just don't be surprised If they don't sound happy about it. -Jeff Stratton

The Sandals Rite to Silence

ffrr

Apparently drinking from the same bottle of wine as Galllano and Mother Earth, The Sandals make a kind of music that my friend calls •trip-hop.• It's not hip-hop, It may have been acid jazz at one point (the flutes man, the flutes!) and It may very well be house music, but The Sandals de~nitely have their own vibe. All of this is Informed by their pseudo-hippie/beatnik veneer, : which generally involves not washing your hair and scrapingeiic the tube for resin. Their hippie wor1dview also has them wor- ~ rying about the state of thE; globe, although one of their ' tunes Is called "We Don't Want to Take the Blame." The vocals are a kind of mumbled rapping over loping dance beats, vaguely rhyming about the same things that Jamlroquai sings about. The music is densely programmed and at 1 times sounds like what is known as •the state of the art,· but their rhymes and melodies often fall : short of the brass ring. :I

L~~·;ly Pl~=;, ;f confronts AIDS Louis A. Londo

News Editor

-

I have a friend who is dying of AIDS, and of all my friends it seems particularly unfair that it should be him. There is no fair victim of this disease. Losing a friend is never easy, but how we deal with that Joss defines us, and this is one of the lessons of Lonely Planet, by Denver native Steven Dietz. In this production at The Vogue Theatre, we are asked to question our attitude about AIDS and the attitudes society has toward this disease. The play uses direct and creative devices to get this message across. At times, the play appears to be holding a mirror to the audience and out the front door of the theater, challenging us to acknowledge the truth. The action takes place in a map store owned by one of the two characters, Jody, played by Richard Nelson. Jody uses his maps as examples of how society can learn to accept certain perspectives. Jody adopts an almost elementary school teacher approach to explain how Greenland is the same size as Mexico. He explains that an accepted and fixed point of view makes this possible. ' He points to the same accepted and fixed attitude in society concerning AIDS. Jody's enigmatic friend, Carl, played by Dan O ' Neill, pushes the action along with his charged entrances and exits. He acts as Jody's connection to the outside world, telling far-fetched stories of the numerous jobs he does. Carl adds to the decor of Jody's map store by assembling a collage of chairs in the room. . The two can best be described as friends of circumstance, but are true friends nonetheless. Nelson and O'Neill work and fit well together, and are clearly comfortable with each other on stage, having worked together in recent productions at The Denver

Center Theatre. They play off each other with ease and trust, performing a well choreographed and amusing imaginary sword fight early in act one. Each performance is solid. The actors move smoothly from pseudo-slapstick to solemn and sensitive asides, without losing the audience. The balance between the two actors never lets one dominate the action. The main tools used in the play are maps to represent fixed perceptions and the Ionesco-like use of chairs to illustrate the growing numbers of those being lost to AIDS. These tools are obvious and ever-present on stage. But the best device is the most subtle. Carl and Jody constantly talk around the fears, sadness and loss associated with AIDS, never actually identifying_ the disease. This turns out to be the most powerful message in a play full of powerful messages. Jody calls society's way of not identifying truth as "blind spots." He goes on to point out how we try not to recognize things we ·do not understand until "they get big enough that we are forced" to see them. The technical aspects of the play are as strong as the performances. Ted Dolas' set design is finely detailed and it wonderfully reproduces the atmosphere of any small, mom-and-pop-type business. Lighting supports the action without detracting attention from the actors. The only weakness in this production occurs during set changes. The only major change to the set is the addition of chairs. Most distracting about the long changes is the time it keeps the actors offstage. This play works at every level. It takes the audience from laughter to sadness, from triumph to despair. Lonely Planet will force you to confront your attitudes about AIDS. It constantly asks you to examine the truth about these attitudes. When I looked at myself I realized I had not called my dying friend. That will change.

SMALL WORLD: Dan O'Neill (Carl), left, and Richard Nelson (Jody) complement each other's strong performances In the two man play Lonely Planet.

Barrymore doesn't help Boys This road picture tries to be a lo-cal version of Thelma and Louise and succeeds

::

Kevin Juhasz Senior Staff Writer

,.

Boys on the Side is best described as the film that could have been. Herbert Ross, who bas directed films like Steel Magnolias and The Goodbye Girl, misses the mark in his attempt to make a film about women and their relationships in the '90s. Boys on the Side starts off with promise., Jane (Whoopi Goldberg) and Robin (Mary-Louise Parker) are two New Yorkers desperate to get out of the city. Despite their clashing personalities and lifestyles, they decide to make the trip together. Jane is a nightclub singer trying to escape the pain of a failed relationship, and Robin is dealing with the problems of being HIV positive. Holly (Drew Barrymore) eventually joins the two, who are headed for Los MAKE A WISH: Robin (Mary-Louise Parker), center, and Holly (Drew Angeles, but when Robin becomes too ill Barrymore) wish Jane (Whoopi Goldberg) a happy birthday in a scene that sustained only minor damage from Hurricane Drew. to travel they all end up in Tucson.

Women off to 2-0 start in col1ference play Michael BeDan Sports Editor

..

After enduring a horrendous pre-season, non-conference schedule, the women's basketball team feels right at home in the Colorado Athletic Conference. Why not? They are a perfect 2-0 and are playing the kind of basketball coach Darryl Smith envisioned when the season opened. The Roadrunners hammered the University of ColoradoColorado Springs 80-60 Saturday night at Auraria Events Center recording their second straight win after starting the season 2-12. "We played a tough pre-season schedule against good teams with good players," Smith said. "It forced us to learn to score against better players and it should help in the conference games." Metro jumped all over the Gold in the fust half and led by 18 at the break, 45-27. Four Roadrunners scored in double figures as they puzzled UCCS with pressure man-to-man defense and scored with ease inside and out. Mary Henry tickled the twine from downtown six times as she scored a g~e-high 20 points and

pulled down 11 boards. Vanessa Edwards dominated the paint en route to a 17 point five rebound performance that left the Gold baffled. If they played interior defense, Henry hit the three. If they guarded Henry, Williams would post up and score. "How are (teams) going to guard us?" Smith pondered out loud. "You can't stop Vanessa inside or Mary on the perimeter." Tammi Baumgartner had the best shooting night of the evening, scoring 19 points on 810 shooting, including 3-3 from behind the arc. The catalyst for the dominating performance was Sarah Eckhoff who scored just five points, but was brilliant running the offense. Eckhoff dished out 14 assists, grabbed four rebounds and turned the ball over just twice. The fine te.am performance was not lost on Baumgartner who said it is satisfying to see the team coming together and firing on all cylinders. "We are pas.sing the ball well and playing very un·selfishly ," Baumgartner said. "We aren't even considering the pre-season right now, as far as we are con-

cemed we are 2-0, not 4-12." Smith agreed, saying that conference play is a second chance for his team to live up to expectations and still have a successful season. Reserve guard Michelle Marshall said the team has a new attitude going into conference play. "We are practicing harder and. it is showing up on the court," Marshall said. "At first we were playing not to lose. Now, we are aggressive and playing to win the game." Regardless of why, the Roadrunners look like a different team than the one that lost 12 of 14 games to start the season. "We were never a bad team," Smith said. "We just had to learn to win because we lost a lot of close games earlier." Metro will face a tough Air Force team . on Saturday · in Colorado Springs before returning home Thursday to face the University of Denver at S p.m. "Air Force is a tough game on the road that we need to win," Smith said. "We're taking ,them all one at a time now . We've taken two steps out of 12 and now we'll look to the Air Force game."
