Commissioners approve quality indicators

By Tun f"lelds and Lois Wymore The Metropolitan

Reluctant commis.sioners of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education approved the Quality Indicator System, despite arguments that the system was not yet complete. The Commission was required by a state-mandated deadline to pas.s a performancebased measuring system by December 1. The Legislature delegated to the Commis.sion the responsibility to develop a system that measures quality in higher education institutions that use state funds. If an institution's performance is

poor, its administrators could lose control of those state dollars. The nine indicators cover topics such as exam scores, graduation rates and teacher productivity. Alexander Bracken, Commis.sion Chairman at the Nov. 4 meeting held at Auraria, questioned the system's readiness. "I hope we can reach a point, in our lifetime, when we can drive a stake in the ground and stop changing it. Tweaking could be an endless process," he said. Ray Kieft, commis.sion administrator responsible for authoring the system, said the system is not finalized, however, it is-90 percent ready to go.

"The system is a work in progres.5. Personally, I think it will never be completed. Why, three years from now it could be very different," Kieft said. Commissioner William Vollbracht said he was concerned about the system's effectiveness while being a work in progress. "If you can't focus on something that works it creates chaos. If it helps education quality, that's good. If it's trying to grab a baccalaureate student by the scruff of the neck and shake some sense into them, it won't work," he said.

Civil rights activist speaks at Stop the Hate By Bernadette Baca The Metropolitan -,__

Civil rights activist Morris Dees said that there are many things to be proud of about America. But he is concerned about our nation and where it is going. "There's an ill wind that's blowing acros.s our nation," Dees said Nov. 8 in his Teaching Tolerance speech. The speech was part of the Stop the Hate week at Auraria. Nothing specucular is going to happen Jan. 1. he told a large audience at the Tivoli Turnhalle. It's just going .to be another year to take a look at where the country has been and where it is going.

pedestrian 路accident By Irena Reyes Tile Metropolitan

In an accident at Colfax Avenue and Lipan Street, a pedestrian was killed. The victim Christopher Lanford, 40, of 1223 Lipan St., was killed when a gray Toyota 4-Runner driving westbound struck him in the intersection of Colfax Avenue and Lipan Street. Lanford was cros.sing West Colfax Avenue from north to south tO Lipan Street, according to the report. He was in the cros.swalk, walking against the cros.sing light. The vehicle was traveling westbound at 30 mph going on Colfax Avenue. "I heard cars honking," said, Metro student Michelle Jones. "I turned around to see what happened and Isaw the man run acros.s the street on a green light." The driver of the 4-Runner, a 17-year-0ld youth of North Denver, turned onto Osage Street to wait for the police to arrive. As a result of this fatal accident, the cros.sing light on that intersection is under investigation by the city to determine if it gives enough time for pedestrians to cross.

The Capitol Reporter is on ice for a 5-year plan By Tamra Monahan The Metropolitan

Despite efforts to revive The Capitol Reporter, the newspaper will not be published until a five-year financial plan is completed. In May of 1999, Metro decided to eliminate The Capitol Reporter, a weekly newspaper that covered the state legislature. The decision was based on budget cuts. But Kenn Bisio, chairman of Metro's Journalism Department, the fate of The Capitol Reporter wasn't completely sealed. Bisio said that during a meeting to discl!S.5 the future of the newspaper, Cheryl Norton, interim vice president of academic affairs, told him that if he could find a way to make The Capitol Reporter self-sufficient, then do it. Bisio said he felt a responsibility to try to save the publication that had become an institution at Metro over the past 10 years.

SEED Program to bring diversity fair workshops to Auraria campus

Up in the airJ

By Teniqua P0pe Tbe Metropolitan

For the second consecutive year, the Seeking F.ducational Equity and Diversity (SEED) seminars are being held at Metro. Spearheaded by professors Dr. Ann Janette Alejano-Steele and Dr. Annette Bennington McElhiney, SEED emphasizes seeking culturally diverse and gender fair curricula through a series of monthly introspective workshops. "It's really designed to be a discussion group and a support group for educators who are trying to be more multi-culturally inclusive in the classroom," said Alejano-Steele, assistant professor of psychology. "We have colleagues who don't think that is an important issue." SEED is sponsored by the National SEED project housed at Wellsley College's Institute for Research on Women and locally by Metro's Institute for Women's Studies and the School of Arts and Sciences. SEED groups, which met for the first time this year on Oct. 20, are comprised of Metro professors and Denver-area public school teachers who converge once a month for nine months and participate in unique awareness exercises. "What we do is we walk through systematically all the social 'isms' that are out there: heterosexism, racism, sexism. .. we try to systematically go through those each month. We spend a lot of time looking at ourselves as educators because we know that when we walk into the classroom, we're bringing our backgrounds." "It's a real revelation for a lot of us. I mean, even going to (the seminars) for the third time, new insights pop up to me all the time that I wasn't aware of," said McEihiney, Professor of English SEED, which is in its thirteenth year nationally, has attracted teachers from Smoky Hill, Cherry Creek and McLain High schools as well as Flood Middle School and McElwain Elementar}i, for the first time. "The whole concept of SEED is that .. it's not so much the material that is available to be read and discl15Sed but it's what each of us confronts in the classroom in whatever form everyday and we share all those experiences and how each of us handles it differently. So it's really not a content based program.its more ...we need to look at ourselves and how we've been reared and what we do in the classroom reflects how we've been reared and if we need to make changes we need to make changes," McElhiney said.

Policebrieft Sidewalk vandalized An Auraria Higher Education Center employee told police that vandalized a new concrete slab on the north side of the TIVoli. Sometime during the night on Oct. 29 an unknown person(s) scratched their names into the recently poured concrete.

U-turn ends in collision Two cars collided on campus when one of the drivers attempted to make an illegal turn, according to police. On Nov. 5, the driver of a 1988 Suburban was traveling eastbound on Curtis street when she attempted a U-turn at Ninth street. The driver behind her was in a 1997 Mazda truck. When the driver of the suburban was unable to fully complete the U-turn because of the narrowness of the street between the curb and the median, she put the car in reverse and collided with the man driving the Mazda.

Student fees might be eliminated Supreme Court t9 decide if individuals have the right not to pay 0 NEWS: The Supreme Court hears the case against required student fees. 0 VIEWS: Funding is already a democratic process and removing student fees would only hurt state funded campuses. Soon, the Supreme Court will rule on the constitutionality of mandatory student fees at state-supported colleges and universities. The Court's decision will effect how student fees are spent at all public colleges and universities. The case began in 1995 when law student Scott Southworth sued the University of W&onsin-Madison. Southworth claimed he was forced to pay student fees that funded groups he disagreed with politically and philosophically. Specifically, he disagreed with funding the

Campus Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual Center, the International Socialist Organization and an AIDS support network. Southworth claimed mandatory fees violated his First Amendment rights to free speech, because he could not choose the groups he wanted to support. The UW-Madison, as well as most public colleges and universities, argue that fees support all groups so that multiple viewpoints can be expressed. At most colleges, including Metro, students who disagree with certain groups on campus can form their own counter-groups. Metro's fee system provides funding to anyone who applies, so forming a new group on campus is easy. Another way to voice opinions concerning fees is at the annual Student Affairs Board meeting. Students, faculty and administrators make up the board, and it votes on the allocation and use of $1.4 million in student fees. Metro students pay $11.25 to $52.25 in fees, depending on the amount of credit hours taken, per

President Sheila Kaplan goes to bat for Metro, fighting for its mission statement

semester. The other committees for students to express concerns about fees are Student Government Assembly, Club Funding Committee and the Student Advisory Committee to the Auraria Board. There isn't a vacuum surrounding student fees. The community has input concerning the spending. If the Court rules that withholding funds is constitutional, it could be devastating. Students who want their organization funds increased could refuse to fund other groups. Organizations with the fewest members or least popular opinions - opinions that contrast majority views - could be the first to get axed. The result would be a campus dominated by similar organizations with similar views. Depending on the ruling, students could take fee opposition to a new level. It's a bit of a slippery slope, but students could refuse to pay health services fees because the health center offers referrals to abortion clinics. Or they could

refuse to pay fees because they disagree with the content of the student newspaper. Students can't withhold their tuition money because there are courses with controversial content. Students pay for classes that teach evolution or feminism or have extremely liberal or conservative professors. Students pay for all classes, not just the ones in which they're enrolled. The American Civil Liberties Union compares a required fee to required taxes. Taxpayers are allowed to "object to the use of a municipal park for a controversial political rally ... but they may not express their displeasure by withholding funds." Students should pay for all organizations, not just the ones with which they agree. Funding a group. with dissimilar philosophies and agendas than the norm makes campuses stronger. Little by little diversity grows out of these small groups that are funded with student . fees.

As we engage in this bullshit called life, and we climb the ranks of success, reaching for American Express and double lattes, I have realized that everything we do is directly tied to prostitution of one kind or another. Sometimes we accept the abuse we are given so we won't lose our jobs, our grants, our apartments. We are told we sold out when we do this, yet we are completely approved of, if we become successful.

Metro would be a better college with quality indicators in place

As an adult student at Metro, I am shocked and insulted by Dr. Sheila Kaplan's statements regarding the Metro population and state mandated quality standards. Does she really mean to imply that just because some of us wait until later in life to finish our college education that we then are

not capable of being educated to the highest standards? I have waited too long and I work coo hard, paying out of my own pocket to attend Metro. I want nothing more than the very best for my dollar and time, and there is nothing wrong with holding staff and students accountable for quality standards to achieve that end. i believe that Kaplan is aware of how far Metro needs to go in order to meet those standards and has so little control over her facility that these standards intimidate her. It isn't the type of students that make the

standards hard to reach, it is Metro's own administration that stands in them. I'm sure all students would be grateful and proud to graduate from an institution of high quality. It would do Metro's administration a lot ofgood to strive for these goals. The irony is that not only would they not lose funding, but would probably benefit financially from increased performances.

Rashawn Fulcher, Chris Ford, Michael Alcock and Jason Johnson do crunches Nov. 8 in the Auraria Events

Center.

The 14 members of the Metro men's basketball team spend almost every waking minute together, which could make life difficult, but it doesn't. Instead, the Roadrunners have thrived under the reign of third year coach Mike Dunlap, who brought them together as not only a team, but as a family. Dunlap made changes when he took the position to bring the team closer. He moved them into Walsh Hall, a dorm at Teikyo Loretto Heights, scheduled them to eat together and planned frequent social events that had nothing to do with basketball.路 "We wanted them to know that we are serious about doing things together," Dunlap said. And the Roadrunners have taken it seriously; not only in Denver, but everywhere they go. Twice they traveled to California and while there, visited the family of junior forward Rashawn Fulcher. There, Fulcher's family gladly became the team's family. "My family feels honored to share time with them," Fulcher said. "We eat, my brother acts goofy and my uncle's the star of the show." Senior forward Michael Alcock agreed that Fulcher's uncle leads the fun in California. "His uncle plays the piano," Alcock said, "and we all sing cheesy songs." Fulcher's brother Romacio joined the team in Louisville, Ky., for the NCAA Division II Elite Eight Tournament and so did senior center Jason Johnson's family. And that's more proof.of the ~loseness that the Roadrunners share. Johnson transferred from the University of South Dakota and sat out last season. Because he sat out, he -

had to pay for all of his travel costs to Ke~ he said it was w0rth it because he could s teammates. When some Roadrunners return to thei hometowns over the summer vacation, the family mentality continues by phone. Roadrunners rack up longd is tan c e charges because they call e a c h other around t h e world t

catch-up and wish each other h a p p y birthdays. Sophomore guard Chris Ford was on the birthday call to Australia to senior forward Lee Barlow and there must have been static because Barlow did not recognize Ford's voice. "That hurt," Ford said jokingly as the I the story.

â&#x20AC;˘

..._.. . 12, 1m

And the Roadrunners do joke with one another because they are not only family, but friends too. And that's by choice. "We could go our separate ways, but we don't," Alcock said. The Roadrunners chose not to separate even after 14 hours a day with each other. They go u

togeJher,

movies, play po o 1, play paint b a I I a n d bowl. "We don't live separate lives off the court," Fulcher ' said. Typical days begin at 4:45 a.m. when a van leaves Walsh Hall to take the Roadrunners to practice, which runs from 5 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. Together they eat breakfast after the early morning practice. Then they head to classes, sometimes with a teammate. Somewhere between

classes and a 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. study session, many of the Roadrunners eat lunch together. A common sight is five or six of them finishing up their lunches right outside the library. After "study table" the entire team lifts weights together for an hour and then eats dinner before the van leaves at 6 p.m. for Walsh Hall. That schedule makes for a long day and many hours with teammates. It also makes for plenty of time to learn all the quirks of every team member. "We know each other's mannerisms," Alcock said. "Lee can tell if I'm grumpy or something by the way I fold my arms across my chest. You can't hide anything from this team." Johnson jokingly said it feels like the team spends "25" hours a day together. But spending that much time together is worth it to the Roadrunners. "It brings us closer as a team," said senior guard DeMarcos Anzures. Closer off the court and on. By spending as much time together as they do, the Roadrunners are more trusting of each other and are more in sync in the Auraria Events Center, Dunlap said. Ford echoed his coach's feelings. "It's why we're as good as we are," Ford said. And the Roadrunners ARE good, posting backto-back, 25-plus win seasons under Dunlap and finishing second in the nation at the Elite Eight tournament. Together they live. Together they eat. Together they have suffered. And now, together they attack. - Jennifer Youngman Photos by Scott Smeltzer Illustration by David Menard

Blues for Mr. Charlie dedicated ·t o those who challenge civil wrongs with rights • CHESltR, from p.12 Blues for Mr. Charlie is about a young black man who returns to his southern roots in Mississippi after falling on hard times in New York. While he is visiting his family and friends, he is shot and killed by a white man. Chester said that was all he was going to give away about the play. Chester came to Denver last semester to teach a workshop on theater and film. He and Dr. Marilyn Hetzel, the director of the Speech Communieation department at Metro, decided it would be nice to do a full production with Chester directing. They went through ihe process of finding the right play. "I finally blew the dust off of)ames Baldwin's Blues for Mr. Charlie, and decided that w.is the play that needed to be done for a couple of reasons," he said. "One, James Baldwin is one of the greatest writers of the 2Qth century."

By Nick Gamer

In the seven losses the Metro women's soccer team suffered in the 1999 season, they stayed in the contest until the very end and lost by one goal in each of the games. The most recent one-goal loss for the Roadrunners (13-7) was in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference tournament against Fort Lewis, 1-0. The Skyhawks scored with under 10 minutes left in the first half and kept the explosive Roadrunners' offensive combination of senior forward Kari Pierce, senior midfielder Tarena O'Neill and junior midfielder Janice Armstrong scoreless. It was only the third time that the Metro offense was shutout this season. The loss was heartbreaking to the entire team, especially to one senior. "I could put it in word, probably disappointing," Pierce said. "I don't think that in any of the games we played, we were outplayed." When the schedule came out before the start of the season, Metro had eight-straight games at the Auraria Fields. That was going to be the time where the Roadrunners were going to make a push for the postseason. "We expect to win at home," Montojo said. "\le overcame a slow start and regained our competitive edge going down the stretch.n

Roadrun11ers on deck

The eight game-stretch did help Metro get back into the winning way, as they won seven of the eight games, including a six-game winning streak. The only loss that the Roadrunners suffered during the stretch was to Fort Lewis (2-1). After the home stretch was over, the team had boosted its record from 5-4, 2-2 in the RMAC, to 12-5 and a 7-3 in the RMAC afterward. Besides the eight straight games at home, Metro did something this season that they could not do last year: beat Mesa State. The Roadrunners and the Mavericks met four times last season, twice in the regular season, once in the RMAC final and in the first round of the NCAA tournament, and Metro could not win once. It only took the first meeting this season for Metro to breal< the streak, as the Roadrunners won 2-1. With the end of the season comes the end of the career of Pierce. She led the team for the second straight year in points, posting 35 this season. She also broke a single season mark with 13 assists in one season. Pierce was named to the RMAC first team for the second consecutive year. "In her junior year, we moved her from midfielder to forward and she started to blossom into the league MVP last season," Montojo said. "Even though she didn't win it this season, I can't think of anyone that was better then she was."

Women's Soccer Novembers RMAC Tournament Metro vs. Fort Lewis (@ Regis) F"mal: 1-0

Swimming &Diving

Now that the Metro men's basketball team has cornered the market on foreign players, the Roadrunners have begun to look closer to home for new players. In an attempt to plan for a future that does not include DeMatcos Anzures, Lee Barlow and other seniors who will graduate after this year, Metro has been recruiting in the Denver-area. Their efforts were rewarded Nov. 10 when Lester Strong, a senior at John F. Kennedy High School signed a letter of intent to play with the Roacirunners next season. Strong (6-8) led the state in blocks (4.6 per game) last season. The center also averaged 23.0 points and 3.0assists.

Metro volleybal players block a hit by Fort Hays State Nov. 5.

The Roadrunners suffered their 20th loss of the season with game scores of 15-13, 14-16, 15-5, 7-15, 15-8.

· Roadrunners will have to.rebuild again next year • v~ from p.16 The 10 wins are the fewest since 1973, when the team played only 17 games and finished 10-7. "You can't always look at the record to see if it was a great year," said senior middle blocker Chris Brink, who led the Roadrunners with 80 blocks. Brink finished with 326 kills, second only to Peterson's 327. Peterson also led the team in digs with 325.

Strong will finish hi.5 final season with the Commanders before joining the Roadrunners for the 2000-01 season.

All-Conference Roadrunners Seven Metro soccer players earned All-Conference honors from the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference for their stellar play this season. Senior forward Kari Pierce, senior midfielder Tarena O'Neill, junior midfielder Janice Armstrong and senior forward Jared Zanon were named members of the A!I· Conference first team. Pierce ended her final season with the women's team with 11 goals and 13 assists for a tearn·high 35 ~ints . O'Neill

Still the season was a disappointment. "It was a really hard season for everyone," Peterson said. Brink is concerned about about the team next year which will have to start over with another coach. Sophomore setter Jessica Lee will be one of the Roadrunners who will have to learn another coach's style next year, but she isn't worried. "Next season we should be OK as long as we have some big hitters," Lee said.

improved her game as the season progressed and finished with seven goals and six assists. Armstrong led the Roadrunners in goals with 12. She also had one assist. Zanon, led the men's team in goals and assists. He finished the season eight goals and four as.5ists. Freshman goalkeeper Eric Butler and junior defender Brett Manning earned second team All-Conference honors. Butler played almost l, 700 minutes for the Roadrunners and gave up only 31 goals. He averaged 1.65 goals scored against him per game. Butler also had 91 saves on the season. Manning scored two goals and added two assists. Senior defender Kathryn Cziuzas was also named to the All-Conference second team .
