Book shortage at Auraria Book Center c
By Jacob Ryan Tbe Metropolitan
~
Ashortage in orders from the campus bookstore caused several students to receive their texts very late into the semester, though it wasn't the first time this has happened. The Auraria Book Center, located in the Tivoli, fell short of the number of textbooks needed for two of professor Thomas Altherr's American history courses. Altherr, who has been a history professor at Metro since ¡ 1979, said he asked his classes if they had all the. 1\vo weeks later, Altherr said the bookstore still did not have Davidson's text. Altherr said, "This came as a surprise to me." He said the main reason it bothered him was because it was a little over a week before the class' first test. "Two or three of the questions on the test weren't covered in class," said Altherr. Students were supposed to have known the answers to those questions from reading Davidson's text. He said he had his secretary call the book store again. This time the book store answer, and Altherr said his
secretary placed the order for more books. But, adding to the difficulty, he was told the texts would not arrive until after the test. Altherr said he placed his own personal copy of Davidson's book on reserve in the Auraria Library so his students could have a chance to read the chapters needed for the test. Less than a week after he had given the test, his students finally were able to buy the Davidson book from the bookstore. "I find it inexcusable," he said. According to Altherr, this wasn't the only time he had run into trouble,with the bookstore. He said another class of his was unable to buy a required biography for a course focusing on Thomas Jefferson. He said he told the bookstore he needed this book for his class two weeks before the start of the semester, but the bookstore told him that it was out of print, and that they were having a hard time tracking it down. "I walked into a Barnes & Nobel (store), and saw the Jefferson biography on the shelf," Altherr stated. Renee Wilson, course materials manager at the Auraria
Faculty Senate to hire lawyer for intellectual property By Micaela Duarte 1be Metropolitan
An over-whelmaing majority of the academic departments at Metro have voted to hire lawyers to represent the faculty concerning a proposed copyright policy. . The Faculty Senate voted at the April 19 meeting to hire a lawyer to represent the faculty to the Board of Trustees of the State Colleges of Colorado in conjunaion with the proposed copyright policy. "The Board of Trustees has two lawyers working on this, so the playing field is not level," said Faculty Senate President Monys Hagen. "We want to meet on a fair table." The faculty is concerned with the policy as it is
Book Center, said the publisher of the biography had merged with another company. "Getting an answer from them was almost impossible," Wilson said. She said that the Jefferson biography is still currently out of print, but the newly merged publishing company is reprinting it. When asked if under-ordering books is a usual occurrence, Wilson said, "I would say it happens often. It usually happens when classes are over-booked." She added that if a class is over-booked, it is only natural to run out of books. Regarding the shortage in texts at the bookstore, Altherr said he didn't know what the cause for the under-order was, and that it had happened several times in the past. "This time was the worst," he said. "We care very deeply about the instructors and students on campus." He also said the bookstore tries it's best to get the number of books needed. "It's not Metro, so we have no control over them," said Altherr, "we can complain, but we can't do much more."

"Without teachers, online classes are just paper," said Cheryl Norton, college provost and vice president of Academic Affairs.

The Chicano movement is alive and well, said communiry activist Carmela Flores, April 19 at the Tivoli Turnhalle. Students gathered from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Tivoli to preserve the oral history of the Chicano movement in the United States, as relayed by gay and lesbian activists Carmela
Flores and l..orenzo Ramirez. Both spoke co the audience about their experiences as young Chicanas/os and their struggles with both the movement and their sexual orientations. The purpose of the event, said Helen Giron-Mushfiq of Metro American Indian Student Empowerment, was to acknowledge those involved with the Chicana/o movement who had gone unrecogniz.ed in the past. 'There was a lot of involvement of gays and lesbians in the Chicano movement. Thii is an
opportunity for us to capture more of a broad picture," said Giron-Mushfiq. Metro students filmed the presentation, along with nine previous addresses made by others involved in the movement.

Policebri~l~ Early morning rampage Police arrested two people after the driver of a car careened through a pedestrian zone on the south side of the Tivoli on April 7.

The driver of the vehicle drove onto a gr.iss mound where buses turn around and beC'.une airborne. When the m hit the ground on the OLher side of the mound, it immediately came into contact with a "dismount zone" sign. The driver dragged the cement and metal sign for 50 feet, then swerved left onto the grass embankment bordering the Plaza Building in an attempt to dislodge the sign from underneath her car. The driver fmally came co a stop at the South West entrance doors to the Tivoli. The officer approached the vehicle and after questioning the driver he suspected that she was under the influence of alcohol. The officer administered a road-side sobriety rest and determined she was above the legal limit. When he attempted to arrest the driver, the passenger of the car became argumentative with the officer claiming they had done nothing wrong. Police arrested him for interference and turned Lhe two over to the Denver Police Department who consequently took them to jail.

Parking on campus easier with fewer cars· Speculation of other transportation used as reason for fewer cars on campus • PARKING, from p.3 Gallagher said.

Gallagher said the increase in pay for parking this year has not been a major effect for the lower numbers of people parking in the lots. "More people are choosing to park in lower priced lots, we wanted people to be able to choose where they park," Gallagher said. "It costs too much to park on campus.

and anthropology major at Metro. Bobbi Eads, a University of Colorado at Denver student majoring in anthropology, and Lara Webb, an Education major at Metro, both agreed that the parking fees keep getting higher and that is why the number of people parking in the lots is decreasing. "There is more competition with other parking operators on the edge of campus," said Gallagher. He said they cost less than some of the Auraria operated lots.
TRUST SERVICES
Gallagher said he is not planning on doing anything about the reduction in " people parking in the lots. "The only change I'm looking at is reducing fees for students, faculty, and staff to $5 in the Tivoli lot," said Gallagher. The Tivoli lot is currently U.25 per half-hour and $10 a day. Gallagher also said they are going-to start a permit program with the Pepsi Center. Cars will be able to park at the Pepsi Center from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and cost will not be higher than campus rates.

He said the students hope to have the anthology available by May 3. "It brings to surface things you're usually not going to hear about in an academ- ic clas.s," said Matthew Mahutga, another Metro student involved with the project. Flores spoke about the negative male image she received as a young Chicana. Because men treated women as sexual objects and workers, Flores said, she became a strong political activist for change. Ramirez said he also had a passion for social justice. At the age of 16, Ramirez said he moved to Denver and became heavily involved in the Chicana/a movement. ,,; By age 22, he broke a barrier by becoming an openly homosexual Chicano, he said. Flores said sexism, racism, clas.5ism and homophobia are still present within the Chicana/a community. "We still have a long way to go," said Flores. . Students interviewed the speakers, one-on-one. Metro students Renee Fresquez and Frederick Ranallo-Higgins interviewed Flores. Ranallo-Higgins said Flores made a contribution to the Chicano movement by affirming that it's okay to be a homosexual.

Many say Lang was very modest about his an, which ranged from serious sculptural works to mock anthropological pieces in his "Old Pecos Museum Show." He never touted himself as above the work of a student. His wife, :i<ara, said he loved how clay allowed him to share with students and other people. In the 1960s Lang earned a bachelor's degree in fine an from Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa. He went on to earn two master's degrees in fine arts and science respectively from the University of WJSCOnsin. Before coming to Metro, Lang headed the ceramics department at the Cleveland Institute of Art and taught at schools in North Carolina and WISCOnsin.

One World Taiko played their drums at the on T'IVO!i April 18 as part of Asian Cultural Awareness Week. Takami Sueyoshi, Gary Tsujimoto and Nancy Ozaki moved with the precision of ballet dancers and the power of Tae Bo instructors when they played their drums. The performers played for 45 minutes, and when the set was over, Ozaki's face was beaded with sweat. She gasped for breath when she spoke. The drummers constantly rocked back and forth as they violently pounded the giant Taiko drums. All that motion during the performance was an intense aerobic work out. 'The longest we've played is an hour and 15 minutes," Tsujimoto, the group's leader, said. 'The drumming itself is an aerobic workout, but I do mountain biking for crosstraining, endurance." Even with the strenuous workout during the session the group doesn't do anything special before their performances like stretching or breathing exercises. But the work involved in this art form shows in their taut muscles. All three members have the physique of long distance runners. Their muscles are prominent, but not massive, and can be seen through their skin as if they walked out of a page from Gray's Anatomy. Taiko drums have been around for thousands of years, but their use was limited to priests and holy men. Their use began in battles because their sound carried farther than the human voice

_ or other instruments. Soldiers would beat out commands on the battlefield similar to Morse code. Sometimes the drums were used to create boundaries for villages. When a person walked out of the village and couldn't hear the Taiko drum anym~re, that was the
extent of the village propeny. The drum was always associated with the gods, and at some point the belief that a god exi.5ted inside the drum created its holiness, so only the holy could use it.

Jazz musician turned ancient drum into modern musical art form Upcoming One World Taiko performances
• TAIKO, from p.11
:
,_
Then in the 1950s, Daihachi Oguchi, a mU5ician schooled in jazz, revived the drum and began performing with other drummers. The scyle was imicated and now more than 1,000 Taiko groups exist around the world. In the United Scates, most Taiko schools are located on the West Coast and Hawaii. The art of Taiko drumming has incorporated music from other cultures, including jazz. One World Taiko members composed two of the songs performed at the Tivoli. "You can tell these aren't Japanese rhythms," Ozaki said before performing a song composed by Tsujimoto. "It's hard to explain what makes Japanese rhythms unique, but they come from the songs we sang as children, " Ozaki said. During the performance the drummers shout hay, hi or ho. Ozaki said it's called kiai. "The shout is similar to the martial artist's shout, it gives you power and strength," she said. The shouts are also used as cues to keep the drummers in sync. They shout on the offbeat to keep together. Tsuijimoto has been drumming for 26 years; 07.aki for 23. They performed together for several years, including a stint at Disney World.

After struggling through the first half of its conference schedule, the Mecro baseball ceam is looking to rebound in the second half and maintain its spoc in che post-season. The Roadrunners have not fared well in che lace innings of several games, and lose after holding big leads. The fact that the team has had co cancel six games, including four against conference teams, due to weather has not helped che team out either. Unfortunately for the Roadrunners, the road is only going co get bumpier near the end of the regular season. Two of the three remaining series come against the top two teams in the conference, Fore Hays State and Mesa State. They fi11ish out the regular season at home against the University of Southern Colorado. Coach Vince Porreco is focusing on the future rather than past troubles. "We can't worry about whac has gone on in the past and the fact that we have lost games to weather," Porreco said. "We have everything out in front of us now, and we know exactly what we need co accomplish." Senior infielder Mike Henchorn also said that the team is simply looking at what is ahead of them. "We know we have to beat Mesa Stace. We know that we have co beac Hays, and we know thac we have to beat Southern Colorado," Henthorn said. After winning two of four games at Regis, che Roadrunners now stand ac 7-5 in the conference. They are currently in third place,

behind Fore Hays (13-3) and Mesa Seate (11-5). The cop four teams in the conference will play for the championship May 12-14. For now, the Roadrunners muse focus on their nexc series at Auraria 'Fields against Mesa State. The Mavericks have always been one of

"Every team we played during the pre-season was regionally ranked and we were able to hang with them and definitely got noticed." Even though the Roadrunners lost thaie early matches, Brockman, who plays No. 5 singles and No. 3 doubles, said they helped because the team built up confidence by playing with better teams. The team is now intact and focused with the help of Sports p.sychologist Othon Kesend and ready to take on the University of Southern Colorado. "Our sports psychologist has helped through relaxation: how co breath and visualiL.e, bringing us OOc:k into our game," Brockman said.

the home team swept the four-game series. That is exattly what the Roadrunners hope co do April 22-23. If they are successful in sweeping the Mavricks, Metro will take
over second place in the conference standings. Mesa State enters the series losers of four in a row after Fort Hays swept them in a series April 14-16. Henthorn said that this will be another advantage for Metro. "When a team loses four in a row, their confidence is shot," Henthorn said, "and it's cough to get back in a winning groove. "We just have to prepare and play our game," he added. Even though the players are excited to play one of the elite teams in the conference, Porreco said that he will not prepare his team any differently. "We don't prepare specifically for any one team," he said. "The way chat we've been playing, there are things we need to improve on as a team chat we need to take care of, but this series is as important as any other series." If numbers say anything about what to expect, it should be an evenly-matched series. Mesa State ranks ahead of Metro in batting categories such as home runs, triples, and slugging percentage. Metro, however, is second behind Fort Hays in baning average (.357) while Mesa State ranks fifth at .302. In 44 games, Mesa State has scored about 7.6 runs per game, while the Roadrunners have scored about 7.2 per contest in 38 games.
