books Reqders burnoverbqnned Honorssocietybrings attention to annual list of censoreditems Ey llichacl Godftcy mgodfteS@nscd,edu Membersof SigmaTau Delta brought book censorshipin libraries to students'attention on Sept. 28 wten they hosteda public awareness discussionin the Auraria Library durilg the celebrationof Bamed BookWeek.

BannedBook Week,which has been sponsored by tlre American Library Association since 1982, celebratesan individual's freedomto chooseand expressa! opinion that nay be consideredunorttrodoxor unpopularby alother.

It stressestlte importa.nceof ensuringthe availability of those viewpoints to all who wish to readthem.

Studentsfrorr Sigma1)auDelta, an honors English society at Metro, hosted the discussion, which higblighted how books are banned and wtat it meansto the generalpublic and to Meto students.

"There are over 100 books tlat are chalvisg lengedwery year,' saidJenniferGoodlan(1, presidentof Signa Tau Delta. "And there is a fine line betweencensorshipa:rd legitimateulsuitability for a library population."

Last year there were over 405 challenges to books,accordingto the AmericanLibrary Associationwebsite,Sexualcoritent,offensivelanguageand inappropriatenessfor an age group were among.themainreasonscited for challenges. lncluded in the "10 Most ChallengedBooks of 2005,' listed on the website,are bookssuch as Robie H. Harris' It's PerfealgNormal, Jurdy Biume's.Foreuer and J.D. Salinger'sTheCatcher in theRye. 'Just becauseit upsets you doesn't mean it shouldbe censored,"said DeniseStrother,a Metro Englishmajor.

"There's also a balance between ileciding what books have value to a community,"Goodland said. "But we as a literate populationcan-

not remainignorant about the issue,becauseif we are, it will comefind us."

Goodlandalso said nost of the complaints comefrom parentswho don'twant tleir children to readbookscontainingmaterial they perceive as racist, altisocial or sexual.

A representativefrom the ColoradoLibrary Association,Ikren Bary, spokeat the eventto raise awarenessaboutwhich booksare banned a:rdwhy.

Bary explaineil tlat materials are challengedbecauseof people'svaluesor becauseof parents'Concerns.

"We have to just trust that people make their own judgnents about what they read and don't," Bary said.

Shealso said not only booksare challenged, but works in all forms of media in libraries arouadtlre state are challengedas well.

'I baveparentswho ask me why a:: R-rated movieis evenon our shelves,"Bary said.

Students at t}te event seemedconcerned tlat someof theseworks might be bamed from Auraria's shelves.

'You're in college to subject yourself to a higher level of leaming andyou're goingto find controversyaryrvhere," said Melissa Klomp, a Meto studentwho plans to becomean English teacher.

The dean of the Auraria Library, David Gleim.related his views at the eventabout ttre impact of bannedbooks on societyand on t}te Auraria Campus.

"We have potentially hazrrdousbooks here in the library,' Gleim said. 'But tlat's because rre don't havechildren'sbooksat Metro, and it's just not an issue."

Signa Tau Delta also displayedbooks in the Auraria Library that have been challenged or bannedacrossthe country in order to spark conversationand show students which books are beingbanned.

"People form a deep personal connection to someof thesebooks,' Goodlaldsaid."And they're offendeda lot when they fud out tlat tley've been banned. This wont only affect books,but movies (also),and it's important for studentsto understandthat."

By Barbara llernandez bhcrnanS@mscd.edu Outdoorrepairs and renovationscosting almost $2 million signiS the last touch-upsof the Tivoli'stiree-yearLransformadon.

Construction workers and equipment, of GeraldH. PhippsGeneralContractors,curiently occupythe southwestside of the Tivoli, where they are building a loadingdock for the Auraria Bookstore. ' Originallylocated the at PlazaBuildhg, the loading dock construction is phase one of the Tivoli's outdoorrenovations.

Conskuction vrill move the loading dock ftom tlte Plaza Building to the Tivoli's south side so tlnt trucks will not haveto drive across tlte pedestriansidewalk, said BarbaraWeiske, division dtector at StudentAuxiliary Services of AurariaThe loadingdock'snew locationmakesfor a safer pedestriansidewalk on the Tivoli's southwest side.

Fundsfor the loadingilock are approximate' ly $975,000,tlle moneycomingfrom bonds investedfor the projectfrom studentfees,Weiske said.

"I-r 1999 studentsessentiallyvotedto raise feesto fix this place,' she said.

As of now,the RID bus roundaboutlocated southeastof tle livoli remainsvacant.

However,Weiske said future pla:rs for the area i.ncludea circular patio of pavementwith areasto sit and a backdroparea for balds.

"The vacated turnaround, or special event and .student-activity patio, does not have a constructionscheduleyet, as it is being ilevel

oped,"Weiskesaid."Agail, 'iveatherin the u'in' ter can create deJaysfor outdoor w'ork of this nature.Evenif it doesn'tsnow,it canbe too cold to pour concrete.However,I would guessthat the project will be compietedsometimein the spring.'

Design flrm Slater-Paull& Associatesare solely responsiblefor the conceptualplans of the specialeventa.:rdstudent-activitypatio,with architectsdoingt}re engineeringfrom a phasilg staldpoint.

The project Architect for Slater-Paull& Associates,JennilerCordes,said tley are working with a landscapedesign team zrndare in the designdevelopmentphase,in which the design documentsare recognizedso contractors can nri.a

"We met with BarbaraWeiskeand student representatives,' Cordessaid.'The designwas presentedto the [Aurarialligher F.ducationCenter) board,a:rdtley approvedit."

The specialeventand student-activitypatio will cost $I million, fundscomingfrom tlte same sourceas tlte new loadingdock as well as from interest earned,Weiskesaid. "(The) constuction start date is not yet known. Probablyspringtime,tlough," shesaiil.

The renovationtimelhe for ttre Tivoli spals tluee years, and spring 2007 will most likely mark the endpointof tlre construction. '[f has lsgn a gteat experienceto seetJle building cometo life as the paint was removed," Weiskesaid.

"But it will also be nice to bring an end to tie disruption of constructionand begin to celebratethe end results,which are areasthat the studentscan usemorefreely."

Regarding the completion o{ t}te Tlvoli, Weiskesaid,'I tldnk it wouldbe i:r orderto bave a celebration.The students have much to celebrateregardingthis awesomeprojectandtheir commitmentto seeingit tlrough."

Accordhg to Linda Curran,director of AcademicA-ffairsat Metro,the adrninistration\Mants but to hire a tenuredor tenure-trackprofessor, so far only adjunct laculty membershave applied.

Cunan said that one reason the position remainsunfilled is that Adolph Grundma:r,the formerdirectorof t}te program,tenderedlus res' ignation from the position two weeks into the semester.

Elizabeth Holtze, who teaches an honorslevel Englishclassat Metro, saw an adminstration e-mailaboutthe emptyposition, 'I guessthat I'm not surprisedthat there would be a lack of enthusiasmfor taking on the task." shesaid.

The documentsare basedon her conersations with the provost,Rodol{oRocha,and her understandingof what Metro PresidentStephenJor' danexpectsfromall Metroprograms.

Wlrile not actually a monster, Vaux does havesix armsworth of guitars, ar:dtheir music is monstrousbecauseo{ it. The or y excusethe bald has for havingthree electric guitarists: It likes its musicloud.

"Theplaceexplodedwith flying cottonand trash."Danielssaid.

Varx'smusicis notablefor rapidbackbeats combinedwith acceleratedguitar solos,but the bald also demonstratesthe expertise to executeslower,moreintimate beatswith leisurely guitar and bassarrangements.With ilspiration clrawn from well-fumished hear,yweightslike Radiohead,Led Zeppelinand Portishead,they rank high with a soundthat is complementedby their stagepresence andlyncal majesty.

The band's loow-how for breakdownsand riffs is presenton everyone of their tracks, but the surprisespringswhen Vauxviolently brings t}re audienceback to its lusty lyrics and rambunctioustalent. Vauxhas inventeda comfortable mediumbetweenheavinessand buoya-nry that captivatesits listenersfrom the start.

The silgles "Are You With Me" and "Co' cahe James' bring back hope that perfect vo' cals and instmmentalsstiil co-exist. I4rics from 'Van Fong" show the band's intellectua.l side:"Everyone is tangled/ Attachedby stnngs tiat neverstop/ I ran myselfinto a knot."Vaur also showsthe ability to stretch in a completely differentemotionaldirectionwith "Needto Get By": "You'rebetteroff withoutme/ I won't lie."

The \rics seemca.lmard emotional.but when serenading an audiencethe threegr tar on slaughtdoesnt let anyoneforgetthey are at a rock shou,-.

With nearly a decadeof experience,the bald has experienced the ebband flow ol the musicbusi:ress.Follou'ingtheir namechange, VanxreleasedThereMust Be SomeWauToStob

-The split was not our choice.

By music leechI meanthat althoughI love music, I contributevery little to the hdustry's financial well-being. Not a huge infraction on the list of contemporarysins, but one that has weighedon my conscience nonetheless. ln light of the rapicllychangingrealities of the digital musicage,I havedecidedto repent.

What are the speci.ficcmxes of my musical depravations?

To begin with, I haven't purchasedal actual albun since Beck releasedMellou GoIdtn 1994. Second,my top three favorite ba:rdsare either dead or no longer male music, making it extremely difficult for me to support them.

I also attend very few concerts- maybetwo a year - so my limited pwchasing power is not being used to sustain someone'snext national tour. Last, ald most egregiously,of tlte nearly 3,000tracks in my digital musiclibrary not one was paid for.

Forgive me, music label executives,for I havesinned.

Whenfirst I receivedthis free musicalwind'

fail, i:r the form of dozensof burnedCDsfrom a friend, I was more than elated. My once puny collectionof discsandtapes- yes,tapes- was instantly replacedwith moremusicthan I knew what to do with. But, like living in a housebuilt on an ancient lndial burial ground,this undeserved and wholly illegal possessionbeganto haunt me. Howmanyothershadbeent}rerecipients of this grosscollection?How manydoll,ars were not spenti:r music storesbecauseall the tuneswe neededwere at our fingertips?I knew my friend had guardedthe collectionwell, but I also lnew there were otlers who had not been as selectiveil their sharing. I was one among manyald todayI shudderat the possibledevastation I participatedin.

Nowas a newgenerationof musicloversdebatethe nerits and downfallsof t}te digitzl age, and bandsand labels strugglefor a new format that allows for both profit and proliferation, I have decidedthe chain of free music will stop with me. The burned discs are destroyedanil I have promisedmyself I will no longer share

the forbiddenfruit exceptin tle form of al oc' casionalnix tape madefor an ex-girlfriend.

I know it is silly of me to tJrink my illegal coliection is destroyilg music, or my actions will alswer the industry's prayen. But I feel better taki:rg myselfout of the addictiveard desfuctive free-musicloop. If we take advantage of the ability to share music swiftly and easily, we night soon fild ourselvesdrawing from a drywell.

The advent of the lnternet.and the rise of free-for-all digital nedia is a double-edged sword. Like many things freely accessibleonline, it's easyto assumethat musicis something we are entitled to. After all, music doeshave a certain altruistic quality, much more scitJlan a gooddealon Vlagra.

The botton line is everybodyneedsto nake a buck tlese days.Sharingmusicis cool.and sticking it to the man is evenbetter, but what happenswhenmusicbuffs inadvertentiyStick it to their favoriteband?

Scissor Sisters Ta-Dah ([Jniversa-l Records,2006) ByCassie f,ood hoodc@mscd.cdu

In the gameof rock, paper,scissors,rock's weaknessis to be smotlered by paper. Paper can't protect itself from the sharp edgeof scissors,ald rock destroysscissorswith its crushhg blow. It's a battle of luck.

Luck has nothing to do with the Scissor Sisters' cmshing defeatof the rock world. The group's2004 self-tifled debutwas full of boasts about tali::g your mamaout, being filthy gorgeous and returni:rg to 02. Their electronic glan rock quickly crawled into people'sbrains andrefusedto leave.

Their sophomorerelease,fa-Daft,continues to offer the explosive,in-your-facesound tle previousalbumprovided.It also showsa calmer ald morematuresideto the otherwiseeccentric, over-the-topba:rd.Jason'Jake Shears"Sellards still contorts his voice into piercing falsettos, anil Ana "Ana Matronic' Llnch uSesher sulty,

seductivevocalsto take tlte still-electriSirg albumto a moresoulful level than the first.

On "The Other Side," cheerftrl synth-pop musicplayswhile Sellardsmournfullytells how it's his time to die. He expresseshis sorrow but assurestJut he will be OK and will wait on tJreotJrerside.The macabre,somberlyrics mix nicely with tle tender piano and joyless saxophone.At t}te song's end tlte dolefirl sound is complenentedby dialsgus ftom Judy Garland, sayingthat she'll find her way overthe rainbow and that shehasthe right to be loved.

"I Don't Feel Like Dancin'' createsdelusionsof a'70s late-nightdiscoclub.Vintagekey' boards and toy-laser gun noises evoke images of pladorm shoespeekingout from under bellbottoms.Elton Johnmakesa guestappearance, lending his unforgettable,gmius piaro playing fusesperfectly to the ffack. Ilis accompaniment

with Sellards'distinct vocals.

The oddity on tie album is "Intermission,' with a swinging ragti::repiano playedby John.

Much like "The 0tler Side,"the lyrics are morbid in context, but Sellards' gleefirl delivery ma-kesit sound like he is skipping down the street. -Iomorrow's not what it used'tobe / we were bom to die / happyyesterdayto all / we were bom to die," he sings, witltout a care in the world. The extremedichotomybetweenthe lightheartedtone and forlorn words makesthe songstandout.

Io-Dair doesn'thave a single disappointing song.Witl a morecivilizedsoundthan the Scissor Sisters' first release,la-Dalr has taken Europeby stormand undoubtedlywill do the same in America.Remember:Don't run witlr scissors. dancewiti them.

The only guff he receivedfrom the media focusedon whetherhe was doilg enoughin the war on terror.

As strange as it is for a currently sewing headof state to comeout witl a memoir,I find it strangerthat he cal avoidany mentionof his being a dictator.

'It was a resenblanceof our first trip to Fort kwis," headcoachKen Parsonssaid,referencing ttreir 6-0rout in Durangoon Sept 3. "rfi/ejust ditlnt cone out readyto play againsta very good team, and (thewin) really cotrldhavehelpedus out in ttre postseasonstuff.'

Incamate Wor,( ranked llm in Division II, welcomedMetro with two first-half goalsand a stifling tlefenseto shut out the Roatlruners 5-0 on Sept.29.

The Caralinalsjumpeclon the board when defenderlbm Morrill scoredthe gane-winning Soal uiassisted in tle 2ail ninute. Midfielder

Michael Terrell put ttre score at 2-0 when he hocked in a goal off a Jamie Scope corner kick. lncamatâ&#x201A;Źwent on to scorethree moregoals in the secondhalf anrl outshotthe Roaclnrnners 19-7.Metro only had three shotson goal,including oneapieceby defeuderAndrewDonnellyand nidfielders JohnMcCIainand SamRolph.

Metro goalkeeper$a:: Vickery who has five shutouts on the year, was pulled in the 66s minute, after allowing four goals on eight shots.

BackupgoalkeeperJorda:rIvey fnished the last 23 rninutes of tle ga:ne and allowed one goal on three shots.

'It wasnt working againstlncamate, so he fParson)just wantedto changetlings up," said forward VfonneMasonregardingthe goalkeeping changeagainst IncarnateWord. 'The coach wanted to see sonething new, and le [vey) playerlwell againstSt. Rlwards."

Iyey played so well, in fact, he shut out a toug! St Edw"ards team (4-1-3)in Austin, Texas, on Oct. 1 iu a 0-0 tie. St. E<Iwanlswas ruked 25t in ttre nation at ttre time of the natch.

The two teans fought through 90 mhutes of regulation, two overtimes of 20 minutes and five yellow cards in tlis very physical and

grueling gane.

The Roadrunnersput up l0 shotswitl four on goal as the Ililltoppers had eight shots with only tlree on net.

'I have been working for it for four years now,so I really enjoyedit," Ivey said on getting his 6rst start of the year and his secondstart of his Metro career.

"There isn't really a whole lot of difference betweenskill wittr me and Vick and he is a redly good goalkeeper.We weren't getting ttre results so we madethe switch, and I got it (the starting goalkeepingjob) until I play bad," he added.

Dating back to a 2-0 shutout against Fort Lewis on Sept. 18, tle Ro,lrlrunnenhavefailed to recorda goal in the past ttrree games.

'We haveto take more shots on gpal,' said Masonon tle scoring rlrought. "That's ttre key.

We need to work it outside to our nidfielders and get somecrossesin. 1 d61t think rrvehad enoughcrosses.I think we will do a lot better if we do thosethings Meto used Mason'sadviceand attacked a winless ColoradoChristia::team ndtl five goals on 15 shots in a 5-0 blowout in Lakewoodon 0ct.3.

Forward ShaunElbaun led tle way for the

Roa<lmrnersby scoring two goals and adding two assists.The goalswere Elbaun's 7d and 86 on tle year.

Also involvedin the scoringwas miclfielder Antonio Porras, \r/ho scoredthe game-wiming goal in ttre 24u ndnute.

Midfielder San Rolph, who had two assists on the day, drover.pasta Cougardefender on the outside and took a shot on goal ttrat bouncerloff the goalie. Porras was in front of tle net and kicked it home for his 76 goal on ttre season.

Mirlfielder Philip Owen contributeda goal and an assist while nidfielder Ibllen Johnson kicked in his tlird goalthis year.

The win and two losses put Metro's overall record at 8-4-1, 6-2 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conferenceas they head for Billings, Mont., nrhere tley will face tle University of Mary on Oct. 7 and Montana State-Billinp on O ct . 8.

"Now wb have to take care tle rest of ttre 'W'eprobablycant do schedule,"said Parsons. everythingto control our own fate auymore.It's two big ganes witl Billings and Mary,botl Division II opponents,tlat are ga:neswe need to win.
