Lawmakeru mulllongweekend ByTARAMOBERLY tmoberlyomscd.edu Colleges, government agencies and businessesacross the nation arc taking Friday off, in an effort to slashenergybills and savemoney on gasoline. Supporters of the compressed four-day work week believeit will reduceenerry costs,carbonemissions and givecorrunuterssomerelief from high gasprices. The new schedulehas employees working ten hours, four daysa week, instead of the traditional ffvedav eight-hour week. Colorado state employeescould be joining the list of those working compressedwork weeks.Republican Rep,Don Marosticaannouncedplans July 15 to inhoduce a measurenext sessionto adoptthe fourday weekfor stateemployees. Marosticasaidhe decidedto push for the fourday week after looking at dillerent waysto cut energ/ costs. While the new plan will savethe stat€ energ/ costs,it will benefitemplolees evenmore. "The real savingsis in the two to four gallonsof gasemployeeswill save driving to work," Marosticasaid. Feedbackfrom state employees has been positive, with some even telling Marostica they are open to working three 12-hour days, The fourday weekwill be one of

the first bills he introduceswhen the legislature reconvenes in January, Marostica said he is unconcerned with how the bill getspassed,so long asit does. "It's just goodfor the stateof Colorado."he said. Colorado would follow Utah in adoptingthe shortenedweek. Utah Gov.Jim Huntsman passed an order that will gire state employees Fridays off. The "Work 4 Utah" initiative kicks off Aug. 4. The initiative is part of Huntsman's larger goal to reduce energy use16,7prcent by 2015. Shldies project the compressed workwcek will savestate employees S3OO- $4OO on gas annually, according to Kimberb Hood, executive director of the Utah Departnent of Adminishative Services. Huntsman alsorequestedemployeesrxe altematlrc transportation at leastone day a week. The plan will savethe state $3 rnillion a year in elergy costs. The environmentwill alsobenefit by reducing the amount of carbon dioxidein the ozoneby 3,300 metric tons, which is equal to taking 612 carsfrom the road eachyear. "Working 4 Utah" will be reviewedafter a one lcar period, Forthosewho havehad the shortenedworkweekin placelong enough 0o se€ r€sults, unforeseen benefits

haveaccompaniedthe proiectedsavrngs. "In a time of penny-pinching, the four{ay work week has provided much-neededrelief for BrevardCommunity Collegeand its employees,It has provento be costeffective.saving the collegemore than $267,000 in elecficity exllensesin the past year and reducir:g employ'ees'work-related fuel expensesby 2O percent," said Jin Ross,vice president of Brevard CommunityCollegein Cocoa,Fla. BrevardCommunityCollegetested theshortenedweekfor eightrareela during the 2OO7summer.After emplo5aes and studentsvoicetheir apprwal, the shortenedweekwasthen continuedin the fall andspringsemesters. "It has also boosted employee morale, reduced employeeturnover and sick leaveand attractedmorejob applicantsto college,"Rosssaidof the shortenedweek. In the year following Brevard's initial test,employeesusedsick hours 50 percent less, while annual stall turnover dmpped44 percent. Brevard'sjob applicant pool also grew 5l percent a.Iterthe collegeadoptedthe shortenedweek. Hood said he believesthat Utah's compressedwork week will see the samekind of benefits.A study conducted by Brigham Young Unftersity in Salt Lake City supports the idea that a shortenedwork weekhasposF

Utah plans to higl ight the compressedworkweek in recruiting job applicants, Metro spokeswomanCatherine Lucas said the compressedschedule has not been consideredfor the college because90 percent of students work full or part-time.

money toveterans ByRYANARMSTRONG rarmstlT@mscd.edu Veteran Metro students will receive college tuition and living expense help from the,Post-9/11 GI Bill, signedon June 3Obut not effectiveuntil the fall 2009. The requiremenis to qualify for the benefits of the bill are set ftom the length of time servedto how the servicememberwasdischargedSoldiers enlisted in the armed forcesafter Sept. 10, 2001. will be ableto seekhigher education for certain periodsof time acrossthe country. Monthly ratâ‚Źs for service membersof Chapter30 and 1607, which have an honorable discharge, will have an increase whereas those of 1606. the Select Reserve,will be eligible until they separatefrom the service. Reservistswho are not deployed and stay statesidewill receive their regular salary.

The GI Bill will pay tuition at the highest public institution rate in the state with a $1,000 per year book stipend. The amount of living money will be based upon the ffi code of the school. All schools in the Denver metro areawill receive$1,285 monthly for living expenses. Thougb this amount is lessthan they get now for living expenses, they won't have to put any toward tuition. ' Metro has more than 500 veterans irtilizing the GI Bill from Chap ters30, 1606 and 1607. Though changescome annually to GI Bills,the Post-9/l1 GI Bill is the fust maior changeto the Chapter30 benefits. Commulity collegesnationwide fear a significant <lropin their attendancebecauseof the bill, but Janet Maestas,of Veteran Servicesat Auraria, predictsa dilTerentoutcome. "Some of our veteransneed to start at community college to get the skillsthar they needto go on to a four-yearcollege,"Maestassaid. Maestas.who lobbiesfor vetâ‚Źr-

ans' education in Washitrgton, D.C., is alwaysquestionedabout wherethe expenseswill be taken from. "There is a price tag attached to everything, and I'm surprised this passedactually," Maestassaid. LeroyChavez,proiectdirectorof the VeteransUpward Bound Department at Meho, is pleasedto seethe GI bill go througb. Chavez is not worried where the money to supportthe bill comes from. The Post-9/11 VeteransEducational AssistanceAct of 2008 is part ol H.B. 2642, the SupplementalAppropriations Act - the war supplemental,Chavezsaid. The $63 billion over the next decade will come through appropriations and war funding from the Senate's approval before the president signedthe bill into action. Chavez and Maestas want to specifythe bill rvill not be activeuntil August of next year. For questionsgo to wwu'.gibill. va.govor contact VeteransServices at 3O3-556-2993.

I identiffed myself as Rob and paused,taken back by the warm reception the other reporter had been given I was unsure if I wanted to identify myself as a reporter. And as the lady next to rne took it as a cue to continue, ethics took over and I stood up addressingthe group as a student reporter and a lournalism student at Meao. I wasirnmediatebaskedil I would quoting be anything. Not uoless I could interview someoneI said.Was I tapins arything or was I wired?No and no. I hied my bestto smoothout

He sat in the big blue velvet couch againstthe r,valland had been whispering with the people around him jotting things down in a notebook. He stoppedand adilressedthe group with his eyes ffrst. He was pissed. Apparen$ last week's media haining had been a disasterwith only a couple of people showing up, And that evening'smessagewas clear- do

not talk to the mediaunlessyou have received the proper haining, thus further crippling any chance I had for an interview. But I had so many quQttionsI wanted to ask like, how is it possibleto organizepeoplewho are encouragedto have their own agenda?And did they eryect people coming in hom out of state to help? But a more pressingquestionat that moment was why were the two reportersbeingaskedto leavethe meeting? Although, I was told they would let me know when I could comeback down. As we walkedup the stairs the other reporler told me they were discussing sfrategy and rve may leak it . out, sonot to hold my breath.

Meho headcoachfennifer Fisher couldn't hdvechosena bettersquad to representthe school'sfirst softball team. ' The Roadrunners completed a successfulseasonwith a list of acclaimed accomplishments.The team finishedwith a 32-18 record,goodfor secondplacein the RoclryMountain Atbletic Conference.The team took .fourth place in the RMAC Tournament, an impressivefeat for a team with no postseasonexperience.The stat categoryshinedfor Metro asthey led the nation in home runs (79) and doubles(103), while putting up big numbers in per game numbers with 1.58 home runs per gameand 2,06 doublesper contest. While the team played well togetherin their 6rst season,a few individuals stood out among the rest. Desigriatedhitter Ashleyfohnson led the team with 16 home runs, while secondbasemanSarahRuschhad 18 doubles. Nobody believed in this new, ]'oung team. I, for one, was one of those people.They were picked by 11 RMAC coachesto finish fourth in the East Division.I'll be honest and tell you as I sat down at the very first gameI attendedin Westminster against the University of Mary, the first thing I did r,r'astake a peekat the roster.I sawwhat everyother softball coach in the conferencesaw in Metro's team, a squadfull of freshmen with one seniorleader.The 17-man roster consistedof only three upper classmen. I smiledandkeptto myself. But I learned a great deal from this team. As I interviewed players and coaches,I saw the passionthey had for the game.I saw determination and energy in every match they engagedin. Most importantly, I realizedageis only a number. This women'steamwasdifferent. I was usedto watching sports teams with crazy coacheswho only cared about winning. From the beginning. I could tell this team's focus was not solely on that philosophy.[n many quotâ‚Źs I got from the team, their words were more about teamwork and chemisty and not how many W's they could put in the win coluinn. Meho went from tying seriesat 2-2 in the earb part of the season to sweeping series ftom oppgnents in the crucial months of conference play. They went ftom hitting home
