Boardpassesweaponsban Aurari" joins other schoolsin bypassingnew statelaw

by ElenaBrown TheMetopolitatt The Auraria Board unanimously yoted to ban concealed weapons on the campus last Wednesday,after postponihgthe vote in August.

The nine board memberspresentclearedup any misconceptions on exactly what constitutes a concealedweapon and the enforcement of such a ban.

The members agreed that people would not be searchedfor fingernail clippers or lweezers, nor will metal detectors flank the entrancesto the campus. While canying a concealed weapon, with a permit, does no1 violate Colorado state law, it will violate Auraria Campus policy, they said.

The Colorado concealedweapons law took effect in May. It statesthat anyone with a permit may carry a concealedweapon nearly anywhere in lhe state.

The permit application, which can be found online and at local police stations,requiresa minimum age of 2l years, $152.50 for the pro-_ cessingdnd backgmund check and a certificate of weaponstraining. The permit is issued about 90 days later and is valid for five years.

The judicial officers of Metro, CCD and UCD are meeting with the campus police to make the policy consistent across the campus.

Dean Wolf, executive vice president of Auraria, believes this ban will make people feel safer and add a sense of stronger security on the campus.

I l'People already feel threatened in society," said Police Chi;f Heather Coogan. "There is no need for a weapon in the classroom.It's disruptive to the leaming environment."

People in law enforcement are exempt from the ban.

Not everyoneis pleasedwith the new policy, including Dudley Brown, execulive director of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners. "This (Auraria Campus) is another criminal-safe zone," said Brown. "That means all the criminals know it's OK to be there, becauseno one has a gun but

*NO FIREARMS." "I think that's dumb," said Brown. "Our members don't spend their money there, and let me tell you; gun-ownershave a lot of money to spend."

Not everyone agrees with Brown on the rssue.

"It's a good move lo keep temptations away and increasethe amount of civility on campus," said JosephSandoval,professorand chair of the criminal justice departmentat Metro. "The poli-

Auraria Campus as well as all of the highereducation campuses throughout the state have implementedsuchpolicies. While the law allows permit-carrying people to carry concealed weapons, it is a violation of campus policy.

"If there is someoie on campus with a gun, w€ want to know about it," Coogan said. She advises not !o approach the person but to call the campus police.

Some private institutions and establishments, including Six Flags Elitch Gardens and Colorado Mills Mall, have set up similar policies banning weapons by posting signs saying

Census shows diversit

by DaciaCox TheMemplinn In the last five years, Metro has grown in both enrollment and as an online class provider, according to the fall 2003 censusfrom the Office of lnstitutional Research.

In the fall of 1999, the total number of students attending Metro was. 17,595. Since then, there has been an increaseof 2,635 srudents,bringing the total to 20,230 studentsenrolled for the fall of2003. ln this same time period, the average. age of studentshas dropped from 24. I to 23.

Censusrecords show that the college has not lost its older studentsin the process,however.

The number of studentsage 45 and older has increasedat the college by 0.3 percent from the fall of 1999, according to the Office of lnstirutronal Research.

Among Metro students,23 percent are classified as an ethnic minority, compared to the University ofNorthem Colorado's l3:9 percent.

According to an article in The Denver Post,26.6 percent of Colorado residentsare non-white. In Denver, the population is 49.9 percent white and 50. I percent are non-white.

These figures show thal Metro's percentageof minorities is only 3.3 percent below the state percentage.

UNC and Metro are comparablein tuition cost5. A major differpnce between the two schools is tliat UNC has a set tuition cost of $1,260 fot between nine and l8 credit hours.

Tuition at Metro changesaccording to how many credit hours a student is taking. For example, a studenttaking nine hours will pay $757.80in tuition, while a studenttaking l8 hoursrvill.payS1,191.48.

These tuition costs do not include other fees, which lary in each school according to the number ofcredits a studenttakes.

Feesat Meqg for a studenl taking nine hours are $235.15. while a studentwith l8 hours lgill pay $285.27.

At UNC, a studenttaking between nine and l8 hours pays $269.22 in fees.

Metro studentshave begun to take more online classes. ln the lall of 1999, only one percent of studentswere taking online classes exclusively.

Inthe fall of 2003,3.6 percentof Metro studentsare taking advantageof this off-campus option. ln 1999, 92 .4 percent of students were not taking any tlpe of an online course.

As of this cun:entsemester,81.7 percent of studentsare not taking an online course.

A surv'eyof2000-01 Metro graduateswas conducted in the spring of 2002 In this sun'ey, conductedby the Academic Affairs. Career Services,Alumni Relations and lnstitutional Researchoffrces, theseMetro alumni generally felt th'eyhad received a good education.

. According to the suryey, Metro grads had high p€rcentages for acquiring jobs after graduation. . Iorty-eight percent had jobs at the time of graduation . Thirty-six percent found jobs in less than six months after graduation.

ly working on issues such as promoting voter registration, supporting Democratic candidate Dennis Kucinich, and speaking out against the Free Trade Agreanent of the Americas.

Bernier explained the FTAA is an agreement that essentially allows for corporations to do whatever they want without government interference.

FTAA, which was passed in 1998 under the Clinton adminisnation and is an expansion of the Nonh American Free Trade Agreement and the World Trade Organization, has the potential to threaten job security and endanger public healthy and safety, according to Bemier.

The group is pushing the issue because, according to Trout, it is, in many ways, their pivoting point.

"It all goes back to globalization," Trout said. "It's so central to practically every issue we're fighting right now."

Fontoura recently retumed to Colorado after a trip to Cancun, Mexico where she and nearly 10,000 activise from arormd the world protested the WTO talks, which eventually ended after several members walked out.

"Hearing about the talks collapsing was really amazing," she said.

And while the protestswere marked in the media by the suicide of a Vietnamese farmer, she said the protests had a positive effect on her.

"I felt an immense senseof solidarity," she said, "and I came back with a lot ofhope."

While the group is taking on specific issues, they also have strong opinions about some main problems they find on campus and in the community, including people's lack of concem for the problems in the world.

"Students really are apathetic," Tagert said.

"And so many students don't even care about their own welfare."

Trout agreedand said she thinks it's really not too much to ask for people to help out. '?eople just sit around watching TV waiting for the oxygen masks," Trout said. "l just want people to donate a couple hours a week to an issue."

The members said that the p€ople they. really have a problem with are Republicans, especially politicians like President George W. Bush.

"These Republicans are greed-heads,they just care about themselves and theirs and as far as they're concemed the rest of the world can go to hell," Tagert said. "They will kill you for money. And George Bush will kill you for

money;that's flatly the truth. They do not care abouthumanrights."

David Horowitz, who Tagert .places in that group of radical conservatives,is pushing for the Academic Bill of Rights, which calls for more conservativeperspectivesin college classrooms.

Tagertrecently opposedHorowitz and his comingto Metro on Sept-.30in r Metmpolitan editorial. Horowitz's speechis another event CR is planningon protesting.

While some could accuse Creative Resisiance of pushingthe "liberal agend4"the memberssaidthey considerCR a 'lrogressive" group, more than liberal.

Tagertalso saidthe groupwelcomespeople of all politicalviewpoints.

"We want everyone here. If somebody objectsto what we're doing, if they object what we're about, let them come her€ and try to changeour minds and I'll try to changetheir minds," he said. "I'rn confident that the truth will win out. I think anv debatebenefits the truth."

Trout said the group allows for levels of involvement for those who want to be involved. "(It's great) even if people just come to an event a semester or help out in some way," she said.

She said she feels the lack of activism on campus and the substantial lack of young people in the activist community in Denver is a problem, but there is a reason behind it.

'I think that things are so bad right now, that people don't want to admit it," Trout said.

"To get involved and try and change it, people would have to become ziware of how bad it is and they don't want to face it. And their lives aie okay, so they don't care if somebody else's llle lsn r.

Tagert is also angry at what seems to him to be an overwhelming amount of apathy, but doesn't want to demonize anyone.

"I believe that people are fundamentally good," Tagert said. "We have a choice in how we act. But there's always a conflicting tendency in the human psyche towards se'lfishness on the one hand and selflessness on the other."

Bernier said he often gets discouragedbut tries to keep his head up. ' "I just keep fighting," For more information on Creative Resistance,call the BaghdadHouse at 303-5345456 and ask for a CR representative.

But how many of us would take comfort in the fact that this safefy would cost us our right to privacy? The govemmenl has a duty to protect its citizens, but not to tum into an advanced spy network that peers through the windows of ie citizen's homes.

This is the twelfth dispatchin the series.

- Ian Nelieh

"A guy I work with told me this story : So there I was, downto,m, talking to this French news crew. They'were asking stupid questionslike: "Is it hot in (traq)?" and "How do you feel when you hear of another soldier being killed?"

So, I just looked at them like they were stupid, and I guess they took the ,hint becausethey finally left me alone.

While I was standingthere sweating, I observed this old Iraqi pushing a younger lraqi in a little beat-upcar.

They roll past me at a whopping five miles an hour and then the younger guy pops the clutch, trying to push start the car.

Now' this is a common practice here and I thought nothing of it, and thought nothing still when they traveled all the way down to the end of the street and tumed around, heading back my way, the car refusing to tum over.

After about six passes down and back in the sweltering lraqi heat,the old man hasjust about had it, but on his last attemplhe givesa mighly shove.giving it his all, and sending the car speeding faster than ever The kid inside must have had too much of that Iraqi hash that day, or he was just really stupid, becauseinstead of popping the clutch he just stared, wide-eyed, as his car smashed into the side of a fairly new parked pickup truck.

Like bees in a disturbed hive, the Iraqis came from the cafe where the truck had been parked, all angry and screaming, swarming down upon the haplessteenager.

At this I expected the old man, whom I had taken for his father or grandfather,to come to his rescue,but his reaction was one ofawe.

He stood there a moment, watching the car smashslowly into the truck, the force of his effort having tumed the tnrck sideways in its spot, and seemed to contemplatewhat had gone \ rong.

His eyes displayed sheer disbelief temperedwith the wisdom of age in this hostile 1and,as he breathedheaviln his handson his hips.

His next action caused me some confusion. Then I understood.

He threw his arms up and waved them at the boy in a universal sign of "fu#k it," and simply went on his way.

As I stood watching, I thought about how friendly thesepeople are, and how much trouble this old man had gone to trying to help his fellow whom he didn't even man, - this idiot boy know.

"The second great happening was that one of my soldiers almost got attackedby some wild dogs. These mutts have taken to hangin! out undemeaththe big five-ton.trucksdown near the motor pool as of late. When this soldier went to park his vehicle, one of the dogs came out and started barking at him.

He put a rnagazine in his weapon and the dog came closer.

He charged the weapon, and the dog came closer still, its friends forming a group around their representative. My soldier knew the time for action was at hand.

Pointing his M-16 rifle at the alpha male, he preparedto squeezethe trigger and move Rover into the afterlife, but sensing imminent danger the Iraqi dog barked a final bark, tumed tail and ran. his companionsfollowing suit.

Some MPs, hearing the commotion, asked my soldier: 'What are you doing to those dogs?'

He relayed the story and the MP told him honestly, 'l'd haveshotthem ifl were you.'

My soldier assured me that next time he would.

"The third and fmal thing to happen so far today in the little piece of the pie we grunts lovingly refer to as "my lane" was, on the way to work I was informed that there was a great explosion (nearby) and a fire fight. When I drove by (the area) all I could seewas an orange glow and some smoke in the darkness. I guessed the fight was over,

I found out later that the explosion and gunfight was the latest trend here: lraqis on Iraqis.

That's right, now they're fighting amongst themselves.And the small-armsfite was mostly where we sent a patrol to check it out, and they shot at us. I didn't hear of any casualties.

They're fighting each otherl I don't know if it was bad guys fighring bad guys, or the Iraqi people fighting back. I would like to think it was the Free Iraqis defending their homes."

'Runners raid Regisr2bvC-alvinCaudillo TheMenopolinn The Roadrunnerswomen soccer team is off to a great start this season after winning their first sevengames.

They might be consideredto be a team that does not buckle under pressure:they can win at . home or on the road.

The 'Runners are coming off a win Sept. 19 against a big rival, Regis. Metro scored both of its goals in the second half against Regis goalkeeperBrook Glasman.

The hrst goal came at 62:19 by senior forward Naomi Clark. Sophomoreforward Amy Leichliter cappedoff the game by adding a goal ofher own at 82:59 to make the final score2-0.

Metro's defense is good. How good? Well, so far they have given up only 3 goals in 7 garnes,thanks to sophomore goaltender Mandy Allen and the defensive leadership of seniors' Colleen Fellin and Kristen Nason who rnake playing againstthem a real headache.

Like any other sport, a good defensetakes a lot ofpressure away from the offense.

Coach Danny Sanchez sees his team's defensive achievements as a reflection on the whole team.

When you have four shut-outs in the beginning of the season, that just means the whole team is working together.

It's still the beginning of the season.only game 7 of a 20 game schedule,so every game is a huge one. They say "your're only as game as your last game," so, by that logic, Metro's looking pretty good. But, it takes a lot of hard work to get there.

To say they practice hard would be an understatement;the coaching staff makes sure that the team is familiar with their opponents.

"We scout the teams we are going to play, so in practice we have a pretty good idea ofwhat they can do," head coach Danny Sanchezsaid.

"We focus on what a team does well and

The Roadrunners try to be sharp in all areas ofplay, make plays when they can, stay focused to be aware ofthe opportunitieswhen they come up.

The 'Runners continued their dominance of the RMAC by edging the Colorado StatePueblo Thunderwolves l-0. Metro's lone goal came at 27:38 of the first half by sophomore midfi elder Marina MacDonald.

This year, Metro's women soccerhas a lot to live up to. Last year, they went l9-3-3 andwere l2-0-2 in the conference.

The teams the Roadrunners face may change,but that doesnot mean that they prepare any differently, They preparethe sameno matter who they are playing against.

Metro is ranked third in NCAA Division II polls going into their game against Regis who, according to Coach Sanchez,is one of the

greatestchallengesthey have faced yet.

"Ifthere were anything that we have to work on, it will come out during that game," Sanchez said.

He added. "So. with that in mind there is always a sensethat this team needs to improve upon someaspectoftheir game."

Roadtrips lack glamour sion, order movies or play a card game called byElin Ofier Skip-Bo. TheMenowlinn Arother highlight of the day is to go to p oadtripsarenotalwayspurepleasure the gas station across the street and buy some

I\and not always pure hell. The good comes with the bad.

All you.have to do as a student athlete is keep your focus, try to keep up with your schoolwork and not take anything for granted.

You are always a bit nervous before a road trip becauseyou never klow how it's going to end. You don't have the same routines as you do at home and you don't have home field advantage.

You know you have to focus on what you're doing more than usual, but it is much harder when you're away.

First of all, there is a room-sharing issue.

You share a room with three other girls on the team and there are two of you in a bed. lf you're really out of luck, you end up together with someonewho snores.

Imagine that room at the end of your stay: four player's sweaty shin guards, used soccer cleats and old practice shirts. It doesn't always smell like candy.

Another thing that can be hard is the "hotel death": when you get bored out ofyour mind.

Like this time in Phoenix: it was about 100 degreesoutside, so our coach, Danny Sanchez, ordered us to stay inside. You see nothing but the hotel interior, and after a couple of hours that is not very exciting.

To prevent this, we watch a lot of televi-

snacks that the vending machines at the hotel don't provide.

Of coune, all the spare time gives us time to study, but many of the players find it hard to do that when there are people around you all the time.

Also, many find it hard to focus on homework when there are only a few hours before a game, Road trips aren't just about being bored at the hotel in between games and practices, though. There are some fun things we do.

If we have one day ofT, Sanchez makes sure we enjoy ourselves.

On this trip's day off we chilled by the pool at the hotel in the morning. Some ofus enjoyed the water-slide, some the hot-tub and othersjust worked on their tans.

Shauna Stefan, one of the players on our team, is from Phoenix, so later that day we went to her house for lunch and more swimming.

The day endedwith a visit to tbe movie theater. Half of the team watched "s.w.A.T." and the rest saw "Uptown Girls."

The best thing about road trips is the way you get to know the new players, especially at the beginning of the season when you don't really know much about them.

You have a lot of fim memories to share as well.

Then we have soccer, the main teason we are here.

Our first game on the road was against Grand Canyon University. After a shaking first 15 minutes we started to play our game. We won 4- l.

We played our second game against Humboldt State.After some defensive struggles we won that one as well. The final score was Even though we'd been on the road for five days, our last game was the best one we played, though we had some problems scoring.

We played Westem Washington and it wasn't until nine minutes into overtime that we finally scored on a header off a corner kick to end the game- That was happiness mixed with relief.

The thing is, it's hard to be ranked fifth in the nation. Every team is out to beat us. They give their all out on the field. They want to be us. They want to be the fifth team.

We, as players, have to remember this all through the season. We have to prove to everybody, and ourselves, that we deserve to be where we are.

We have to continue to work hard in our practices and games because we can't take anything for granted.

We want to win it ail this seasonand nobody is willilg to give it to us for free.

Road trips or not, we better make sure to win our eames.
