Athletics: Get out of tickets free vehicles from Colorado Fleet Management, paid for the only other parking tickets i.5sued to Metro vehicles. The two tickets were for parking at expired meters and cost $30. Gallagher said the Athletics Department gave good reasons for voiding the $185 in ticket fines, but he would not speculate on them. "I don't want to gues.5 at that," Gallagher said. 'They gave reasons that people understood what went wrong in the situation." However, Gallagher recalled that one ticket was voided because Athletics Department officials said they were moving furniture in their office above Domino's Pizza in the Tivoli. The vehicles were left unattended for a couple of minutes and that's when the tickets were issued, Gallagher said.

Police move Flagpole rally shows amount of waste on campus two blocks west .

By Derrick Pope The Metropolitan

After serving the Auraria campus for more than 20 years from its location on the comer of Seventh and Lawrence streets, the Auraria Campus Police Department is moving. The new 2,500 square foot facility is located in Suite 110 of the Administration Building. All telephone and data lines were tran.5ferred succes.5fully and will remain the same. Size was the major factor in the relocation of the police department and the new Administration Building presented the perfect opportunity, according to police Lt. Gary Kasson. The new facility boasts approximately 1,000 square feet more than the previous headquarters. "When you have 40 people operating from one work environment that is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, you need all the space you can get," Kasson sarl "Ihe new space is much larger and that makes a big difference.n Along with its increared size the new facility has several other improvements. In the old facility, three desk sergeants had to operate from the same workstation. The new headquarters has additional workstations to alleviate this problem. Permanent offices have replaced cubicles and the locker rooms have been greatly improved, according to Detective Andrew Liska. Previously, the department only had one detention cell, but the new facility boasts two. 'The new cells are about the same size but they have drains built into them," Kasson said. "I know it's just a plumbing thing but it will make it a lot easier to clean when someone makes a mes.5 in there." The move took over a week, starting Oct. 12 and finishing just ~fore the open house for the Administration Building on Oct. 20. Police Chief Joe

Students learned relaxation techniques, acupuncture, and therapeutic touch methBy Marie Mase The Metropolitan

•

At a De-stres.c;-fest workshop, students were reminded to take care of their health, even with the anxiety of school, and learn to relax. Attendants learned relaxation techniques by way of messages, biofeedback, reiki, acupuncture, therapeutic touch and light-box therapy. The hostess, Llnda Wtlkins-Pierce of the Student Health Center was in charge of putting on the De- Stress Fest held in the Multicultural Lounge in the Tivoli on Oct.14. "This experience gives people the chance to learn to be healthy while promoting relaxation," Pierce said. One Metro student sat in a chair with needles sticking out of his face, hands and arms. He was having acupuncture done. Acupuncture is a Chinese founded technique that endeavors to circulate the body's energy by inserting fine sterile needles into specific points.

Several computer related ite!lls were targeted by thieves on campus. On Oct. 13, a Metro professor reported to police that someone entered his unlocked office, located in the Technology Building, and took a digital camera.

Three days later, another digital camera was stolen from a professor's office in the Technology Building. The professor told police his office was locked over the weekend. He said when he returned to work the following Monday he noticed that the camera was missing. Police said there were no visible signs of forced entry into the office. The Olympus digital camera with case and batteries was worth a total of $575. On Oct. 11, a University of Colorado Denver student reported a computer stolen from the back seat of her automobile. The student told police she parked her car in Lot D, on 755 Walnut St., at 9 a.m. She then attended classes and returned to her car at 3 p.m. She said there was a dent on the door where it met the weather stripping. The Compaq Presario computer in the back seat was worth $2,299, she said. On Oct. 14, an Auraria police officer, patrolling the Tivoli, noticed the glass display case in front of the Auraria Computer Store was broken. The damage to the display case was estimated at $75. The only object reported stolen from the case was a Star Wars mouse pad worth $7.50.

A program offered by the Center for Individualized Learning allows students who are 60 years or older to take most clas.ses at Metro free.

students take cover a wide variety, ranging from computer courses to literature courses. The program began about 20 years ago as a way to give people 60 years and older an access to educational opportunities, and to connect the Younger. generation of students to an older generation. The program still provides a lot of inteJl:lenerational contacts for both younger and older students, Lancaster said. She said one of the biggest positives about this program was that it allowed younger students to discover what older people were like and vice versa.

CoPlRG said the use of the refillable mugs will reduce the total amount of trash produced on campus.

I first came to the Auraria Campus to read my poetry at the Daily Grind about five years ago. I was new in town and I was making the rounds. My friend Andrea, with the Hektor Munoz tattooed, shaved head Mi Mundo and the big boat of a car, took me all over town. I was so fascinated with the campus. I felt welcome and I met a few of the students. They turned me on to the Black Pearl, Muddy's, The Mercury and a variety of other poetry hang-outs, both hip and not so hip. As I sipped my cappuccino I would listen to the many stories about Jack Kerouack and Allan Ginsberg. Sharing with me the rich history of Colorado, Molly Brown and Baby Doe. I felt totally wonderful in this new world I had entered. Two years later I enrolled in the Community College of Aurora, where I met the Metro recruiter and I decided to sign up.

English-only stifles everyone's education Llnda Chavez and her supporters have the wrong philosophy about Spanish

I'm responding to student Karen Norder and Metro professor Dr. Oneida Meranw's letter, "Story about Chavez missed the facts." Don't you believe that learning your native English first and then a second or third language next is the right road? 路 For a good, well-rounded college education, aren't you in agreement that a second or third language after your native English is considered better then just one language, or even a nonnative language and then your native language? Well Linda Chavez and two friends ...let's turn the tables on you and let you experience a different perspective, OK? You have just moved to Mexico on a promotion. that will last 15 years, it's part of your company's globalization plan to

i~ marke~.

e>pand You have three young children and your native language is English, and they are about to srart school. They now need to learn to speak "Mexican." I know it's Spanish, but I'd like to use Mexican as a language. Your children come to school only speaking English? Your choices are... 1. Do we teach them to speak "Mexican" first, in which the majority of education is presented? 2. Or do we teach them to read English while learning to speak Mexican? 3. In which sequence? 4. Do the teachers have to be native speakers of English? 5. Doest it make a difference? Please respond to this question: Should children have to learn the language of the mother, the father, the family, the community, or the language the

people of the country primarily speak? I'm all for increasing brain capacity, since children are hardwired already by age six with the language of the mother, then learning English later is an increase in brain capacity. Linda Chavez and her two friends, you just contradicted your own belief system on bilingual education. People that only use or learn one language may be using less brain capacity. I know you don't want your readers to wear blinders and use less brain capacity, do you? But please tell me why you haven't contradicted yourself, or why you don't think so? Are you saying that the native language and the mother's language are not the same? Maybe everybody believes Linda Chavez to be a "nonsequitor?" She has no credibility, just look at her name, where's her husband's name?Is she afraid

to use it, because it will furth芦 reduce her credibility? Use it "officially" and let's see how many more "hot beds" Oike Saginaw, Mich.,) of bilingual education "controversy" will invite you to even step on campus? And you just contradicted yourself again, English only doesn't work, English-as-a-second-language does (EAASL)! EAASL, wow, that sounds like bilingualism to me. I believe in as many voices speaking on whatever the subject may be, but I'm afraid I'll have to ask you and Linda Chavez to "shut up." The Republican Conservatives are going to quit using you as a token HIGHSpanics. I like you as you are, never really knowing of what you speak, never having experienced it, and totally contradictory to yourself. - Alfred Soto

enjoys lie~. ana ~ Rutan remembers the first time. her father discovered she had a tattoo. It wa~ her first tatt<x>- birds and butterflies. And it rested on her leg just slightly above her ankle. Afriend of hers named Gary inked it for her, and she had put almost two years of thought into what she wa~ going to get. "He said he wanted to take a stick to the person who did it," Rutan said, remembering the moment her father saw her new work of art, "But then he remembered that there wasn't a person on earth who could make me do anything, so I probably wanted them." That wa~ over 24 ye-.irs ago. Now she ha.~ more. At first meeting, Rutan, who has taught physical anthropoloh'Y at the Metro for the past five years, doesn't seem like the type of person who would cover a gOod portion of her body with tattoos. She sil~ in her office wearing a conservative red dress and sensible black shoes. Her tattoos, which are on her leg, almost go unnoticed. But she will show them off, if a.~ked. Her big tattoci-the one that she calls her "gre-.it spectacular upper one" is a phoenix, the mythical E!,>yptian bird that set itself on fire, rose from the ashes and began a new life. She said the phoenix represents independence. She talks about it with the pride of a collet.10r talking about her latest

piece of an. The end of the great phoenix peeks out of the botcom of her dress. She inches the dress up slowly reve-.iling the intricate design. "It's got flames and clouds and whirlwinds and thunderbolts. And sunshine over here. The whole thing kind of goes up to the North Star," she said. She laughs and smoothes her dress IY.ick down, covering up the tattoo. R~can is a New York native who moved co Denver 12 ye-.ars ago. She speaks slowly with a hint of her accent occasionally slipping into her speech. She said she began college in New York, stopped for 10 years to have an "ill-spent youth" and returned to college when she came to Denver, finishing up her undergraduate studies at Metro. After Metro she went on to the University of Colorndo at Denver. Originally seeking a degree in philosophy, Rutan said anthropology caught her attention when she returned to school. "I wa.~ looking at anthropolot,')' because I'm interested in mytholO!,'Y of other cultures," she said. "So I was actually looking to do cultural anthropolo!,>y." Instead, it was a required class in physical anthropolot,ry that led her to what she teaches today. "Boy, in that intro physical, they put that skull in my hand and I was

hooked," she said. "It was very pretty." Beauty is one of the reasons Rutan got her tattoos. She said she thought body art looked nice. She said people have given her a lot of different rea~tions about her body art over the years. Most of them came right at the beginning. "When I first got them, here I am, 21 or so, I got a lot of very bafi reactions, like 'Do you know you've scarred yourself for life?' And we're talking two decades ago," Rutan said. ''.i\nd even now there are the connotations, especiaUy when they see how old they are, they say 'You must have been a biker chick.' It's like, 'No, I was never a biker chick."' And then there was the bet. "The woman who I rented [my apartment] from had a boyfriend whQ told me that I was going to regret these when I turned 30 years old. And I bet him I wasn't," she said. "We had a hundred dollar bet. And when I turned 30 he put a hundred dollar bill into my birthday card." She said people stop her on the street and ask if they can look at them. Others just want to talk about them. And some border on the unacceptable. "I had a few over7.ealous people who actually touch them," she said. Most of her students like her tattoos. However, Rutan is quick to point out that the people who think they are cool have tattoos of their

New films hosted by old venue 22nd Annual Denver Film Festival showcases fresh films, bids farewell to AMC Tivoli By Qris Ward 7be Metropo/iJan

•- '

•

The 22nd Denver International Film Festival was held at the AMC Tivoli Theatres last week, luring filmmakers around the world to Auraria Campus. Hosted by the Denver Fdm Society, the festival ran Oct. 7 through 14, bringing more than 130 films to the screens at the Tivoli. The festival has been held at the Tivoli since 1985, but for the first time in several years, the festival's opening and closing nights were also in the downtown area. . "Having the opening night film and party at the Buell was a great way to kick off the festival," said Ron Henderson, executive director of the Denver Film Society. In past years, the opening and closing nights have been held at such theaters as the Continental and the United Artists Colorado Center. Henderson described this year's festival as "one of the most exciting and crowd-pleasing in our 22 years." Audiences seemed to agree, breaking box office records. The festival consisted mainly of new fdms that haven't yet opened in movie theaters, but also included short films, documentaries, and classic movies shown as a tribute to past filmmakers. Included in these classic films were tributes to Alfred Hitchcock and Fred Astaire. Also shown was a last-minute addition- a 1971 film called 'The Hospital," honoring George C. Scott. Scott, who was nominated for an Oscar for his performance in "The Hospital," died on September 22 of this year. The movie was available because it is a part of the University of Colorado at Denver's film archive. The new feature-length fdms were playing in the festival prior

Mental mistakes cost Metro's men's soccer team a win this weekend. Any more mental mistakes will cost them the season. The Roadrunners lost to the University of Southern Colorado 3-2 in overtime Oct. 17; the defeat came after an important 2-1 overtime win against Regis Oct. 15. Coach Brain Crookham said the Joss to USC puts them behind in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference standings. As of Oct. 19, the Roadrunners were tied for third place in the conference

with Colorado Christian. Fort Lewis and USC are tied at the top of the RMAC. The loss against USC was not a result of tired bodies, but tired minds, Crookham said.

"We lost concentration, and we made mental mistakes," he said. The Roadrunners allowed USC to score two goals, which forced overtime. "We let Southern back in the game and we couldn't finish," said senior midfielder Ben Hatfield. Hatfield said losing to USC wasn't because of fatigue, it was more of a mental let-down. "Some games we can put teams away and we don't," Hatfield said. Fatigue could have been a factor because the Roadrunners played an overtime game at Regis just two days before the USC game. Freshman midfielder Jared Romero scored the Roadrunners' first goal and the game-winning goal against Regis. He received RMAC Player-Of-the-Week honors. Crookham said the mistakes against USC forced the Roadrunners to play error-free for remainder of the season. "One slip-up is going to cost us," Crookham said. With four regular season games left for the Roadrunners it will become more of a mental game. "This late in the season everyone's tired and now it's more mental, who can make the least mi.stakes," Hatfield said.

Sportsbrieft Metro boasts two RMAC Players-of-the-Week The Metro men's and women's soccer teams have dominated the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference news in the past three weeks. However, there is one difference this week; a Roadrunner from both soccer teams was selected as offensive Player-of-the-Week. Both, senior midfielder Tarena O'Neill and freshman midfielder Jared Romero, were honored by the conference. O'Neill has elevated her level of play in the past weeks. She scored four goals in the victories over Colorado Christian, New Mexico Highlands, the University of Southern Colorado and Regis. She also assisted three goals in those games. Ror_nero is also contributing more as the season progresses. He scored two goals in the game against Regis Oct. 15, including the game winner in overtime.

about pride than comfort. "We have an extra incentive to win," she said. "It's our own backyard and we can't let anyone come in here and win." Montojo thinks it's a little bit of

both. r'

...

"We're always confident here," he said. "Nobody's going to beat us here. We have the advantage of knowing there's a slope to the field and we practice uphill. We know that if the game is tight at the half, we can blow teams out in the second half." The Roadrunners did just that against Regis. The game was tied 1-1 at the half, but the Roadrunners scored two goals and shut-out the Rangers in the second period. Not only was the game the last one of the homestand, but it was also the end of regular season play on the Auraria Fields. Therefore, it had a special meaning for the seniors on the team. "It's very emotional," Pierce said. "It's hard to think that my four years are already over. But, I really don't think it's sunk in yet either." Emotions ran high as the game was dedicated to the seniors. In a brief ceremony before the game started all eight seniors received flowers.
