SGAshufflespositions,funds VP appointment possiblyviolates senatebvlaws

By Caitlin Gibbons cAibbon4@mscd.edu The Metro Student Government Assemblyis btrsy,dealing with a controversial deciions regarding the appointment of a new vice presidentand a plan to revise the compensationfor electedofrcials.

At tbe Feb.18 SGAmeeting, president Andrew Bateman appointed Garbo vice president, leading adviser Gretta Mincer to questionif the move was allowed under the assembly'sbylaws.

According to Bateman, the standard process for appointeeswas followed,including reviewing allprevious exiernal applicationsfor the position.

Batemansaid he felt the appointee should be someonewith a significant understanding of SGA operations, someone who muld only be found within the current assembly Garbo, as attorney general, was askedin fhe fall semesterto mal<ean ArF dti . inr€fplCt{Ctr rt€aidf*.fff,

ment of a new vice president, when the assemblyloted to considerinternal applications.

At the time, Batemanhad madeno mention of appointing Garbo or any other current member.

Garbosaid he felt a little odd offering an interpretation of thebylaws,but felt. confident t}rat his interpretation was iust and encouragedseeking an opinion from the studentcourt aswell, At the meeting,a motion wasproposed to postponeapprovingGarbo,to maintain transparencyand integrity within the government, However,the motion was er€ntually with<lrawn, becausethe Student Court would haveto considerthe legality of the appointment, which would consrme time and potentially delay or hurt current SGAproiects.

Bateman said even if the decision were delayedhe would not changehis appointment.The appointmentwill be finalized March I, pending final a+ proval and interpretation.

"It's a complicatedissue,and we're trying to comdup with a goodsolution that supporb all students," Mincer said. Bateman is also investigating €chtrtfitrlhBt lhb 4C4'@fiShtiM.' fdr'.'

electedolficialsand senators.

As president,Batemanreceivesan $8O0a month stipend.

The presidentialposition is compensatedbasedon a 2O-hour workweek, which roughly translates to $9.20 an hour.

Bateman proposedthat the presidency moveto a 20- to 3Ghour workweek and receivea $1.100 a month stipend as well as a half-tuition stipend.Other electedolficialswould also receivethe half-tuition stipend.

The proposedre-allocationof compensationwould not changethe operating budget significantly, according to Bateman. and would not .increase student fees,which currently pay for SGAsalaries.

Bateman said he hopes that with the tuition stipend many of the SGA members would be able to focus on their academicsand be more connectedto theA chsses.

Senatorswould receile nb monthly stipend, but would be awarded a stipendfor half their tuition costs.The weeHy hourly requirement for a senator is two to four hours, mostJyon Fridaysfor meetings r':. -Thdorrrbhfcbhp0nsatiddfor sen-

atorsis a $I00 monthly stipend.

Bateman said the maiority of tbe assemblyseemsto support the compensationproposal.

Bateman is working with the Scholarship Center and the Administrafive and Finance olfices.The proposed compensation plan must also comply witl federaland state requirements.

He said he expectsto have a decision regarding the compensation by the April election.

SGA,accordingto the 2OO8-2009 budgets, has a $200,00O surplus.

Bateman said this is not truly a surplus and the money hasbeenproposed for severaluses,but there are "always eight months of red tape and bureaucracy to go through."

Some of the budgetary surplus is from $1O,OOOallocated for travel.

SGAhad set asidethe funds to att€nd an out-of-state conference,but could not get approvalfrom the school, Now, the assemblyis looking for other arcas to spendthe money.

with a hot meal

By John Miller jm ill201@m s c d .e d u Auraria is the urban destination for knowledge-hungry students but &e carnpusis also an oasisfor many of Denver'sinvisible residents- the homeless.

Behind the Central Classroom Building, a lonely stretch of alley servesas a sanctuary for Denverites who'le fallen on hard times, a place where they can grab a meal and somemomentary respite.

It's parti-cularly cold and windy today,a condition that attracts more people than usual to the sandwich line at St. Elizabeth's of Hungary Roman Catholic Church. Most are dressedas wann as they can afford, in clothing they haveobviously been wearing for days. Standing in line with them, it's clear that showersare not a daily ritual.

Someseemin good spirits as the prospect of a meal has lifted their mood. But others appear desperate and miserable. One has curled up into a ball next to a fence.shivering ashis vacant eyessearchthe skies.

A voice behind me has been rambling on inaudibly, when suddenly it clearly says "the birds have taperecorders." As I turn to address this statâ&#x201A;Źment,I seea tall black man, about 6 foot 4 inches, gazing into the distance, mumbling. His face is angry tired and empty. I realizehe's not addrâ&#x201A;Źssinganyonein particular.

"They listen to you, and then..." he says,and his voice trails off into an indistinct mutter.

The area on the north end of the Cenhal Classroom Building serves as a de facto dining section for many who havegottentheir lunch from the sandwich line. Although there are a few pairs eating together,most stekc claim to a bench and eat alone.The visual is poignant - like little islands of humanity, distrustful of their surroundings and of eachother.

As students and faculty walk through this area, no greetings are orchanged, and eyecontact is minimal. It's as if they don't exisb the islands are [eft asthey are.

It's no coincidence that they prefer their solitude, says lauletta Proulx, pastoral associateat St. Elizabeth's. Proulx has been in charge of the sandwich line for the last six years, collecfing volunteers to help run it and procuring food to distuibute.

Of the 100 to 120 homeless who frequent the line every day, Proulx saysthe majority of them are what she calls "toughened homeless."

They don't like interacting with others, and they don't like to be indoors.

But she also seemsprotective of "her guys," and it's probably safeto say that as long as St. Elizabeth's remains a church, there will be a sandwichline to feedthem.

Dino is not the arreragepatron of the sandwich line. An upbeat and gregariousguy, he chatters to those around him while they wait in line for lunch. Forty-something, with long, stringy hair and a slight build, he seemsunaffected by his current plight, talking about a life he left behind many yearsago.

"I usedto have a little apartment over on 12th and Sheridan back in 87," he says. "Had a job making $9 an hour. Ieft me enough money to party with. I was doin' pretty good."

Someonecommentedthat in 1987. $9 was good money. "Yeah we smokeda lot of dope,"Dinosays.

Maes says. The only prerequisite is that peopleneedto keepmovirg.

Sleepingfor long periodsof time is not acceptable.

This can be problematiclor a couple of reasons. Since many of the homelessstake a claim to the numerous freewayunderpassesand viaductsthat surroundthe campus, lhey wander the campus having beenup all night, particularlyin the winter, becauseif they try to sleep they could freezeto death. Most are simply looking for a place to rest, Maessays.

The library and the Tivoli are alsopublic propertywhereany visitor is freeto roam. Coupledwith the fact that many students like to take naps on the lawns or in the loulges of the Tivoli, it can be confusingas to who is taking a break in between classesand who is not, There are a small number of regulars who frequent the Iibrary daily,saysRosemaryEvetts,archivist for the Auraria Ubrary. Most stay at leasta few hours a day.

'There are alwayssomewaiting for the doorsto openin the morning, and probably some that need to be herdedout at closing.Many of them are naiting for lunch, While they are waiting, they mostly read," Evetts says.

Some mem,bersof the Iibrary staff areintimidated by the homeless visitors, and there are occasionally someproblems,Studentsand faculty sometimeshave a problem with the spacethey take up becauseit is one lessseatfor someonewho paysbobe there.

'Really?'To which he replied,'Well, things change.'I felt like a total dolt - talk about judging a book by its cover,"Evettssays.

Maes said olficers are familiar with most of the homelessvisitors, and their main concernis checking on their welfare.The police respond to complaintsmade by faculty and students- most common are violationsinvolvingdrinking on campus, intoxication,urinating in publicald conbontations with studensor facult,v.or with eachother.

As for the sandrvichline. aslong as the campus is public property "there'sno getting rid of it," N{aes says.

The building is an odd shape, somewhat reminiscent of a horseshoe,a resultof the building'shome nestled among Speer Boulevard, LawrenceWay and the North Classroom Building, said JoyceCarnes, senior project manager for Jacobs GlobalBuildingsNorth America.

Venture inside the half-finished building- a mere50 feetarvayftom busy SpeerBoulevard- and you'll find that the interior reflectsthe exterior'sbolddesign.

'Auraria is not sitting back. We are a part of Denverand the Denrer scene,"said Jim Fraser,Director of FacilitiesManagementat Auraria.

Thewall facing Speerwill beconstiucted entirely of windows in order to "show off tbe scienceacademics happeningat Auraria," Carnessaid.

Oneof the most dramatic design elementsof the new buildingwill be the fra:ne outlining the windows, which emulatesa picture frame.

"Sciencewill be looHng back at Denver," Frasersaid.

There will also be bright accent colorsfeaturedin the classrooms facing Speerto attract onlookers,along . with a large atrium that will connect the existhg ScienceBuilding to the .newaddition.

The building will comply with the GreenBuilding Rating Systrm as setby Leadershipin Energyand Environmental Design.LEEDis a thirdparty program and is the nationally acceptedbenchmark for the desip, consbuction and operation of highlrrformance green buildings that has both financial and environmental benefits.

Any new or renovated building whose &otal proiect cost includes 25 percent or more in staG funding must be built to a high-performance green buil&ng standard, such as I F.Frr,to comply with SenateBiIl 51, which Gov.Bill Ritter signedinto law in April 2007.

The project had already been funded when the law wasenactedso

it wasn't necessaryto meet the standard: however, builders decided to comply with LEEDstandards at the gold levelanyway.

LEEDcertification is basedon a 69-point system. Points are awarded for everytling from storm water control to the amount of daylight a building lets in. In order to reach the goldlevel,the ScienceBuildingmust be between39-51 points out of the 69 possible.

Fraserexplainedthat part of the LEEDcompl.iancestatesthat the contractors must recycle75 percentof their waste.

In ad&tion to the recycling of materials, tle contrac0ors will get additionalLtrD points for obtaining theh materials within 5OOmiles of the site.

Thedistancerequirementlor materials is to ensure that the amount of resourcesusedto kansport building materials is minimized without hindering the builder's ability to get necessarysupplies.

Construction of the new Auraria science building cornmenced Dec. 7,7007.

The schedule for construction was revised after asbestoswas unearthedin the neighboringlot.

After a three-month delay for cleanup and removal, construction resumed and is now on track with tle revisedschedule, The project is alsoon budget and aims to have occupants by November 2009. At that time, the existing ScienceBuilding will be vacatedand shut dor,rmfor renovations.

When GSPAN asked historians to rank tbe presidents,for tbe fir$ time, Llncoln was consideredthe g€atest president. With the cun€nt comparison of. PresidentBarack Obama [6 Tins6ln, it would be appropriate to ask what made Lfurcolnso great?

BOOK BLOWOUT, .8OSFIIM AND COMEDIAN

By Kara Kiehle kkiehle@mscd.edu With a title like "Donkey Punch," you'd probably guessJou're going to get the next raunchy Seth Rogen Ilick. You'd be wrong, but this glossytlK thriller (written and directedby Olly Blackbwn) is more surprising than the most outrageousUrban Dictionary entries. So you're not going to seethis with your grandma.

That being said, the plot starts like this: tlree party girls on vacation can't believe their luck when they meet some guys with a luxury houseboat, and vice versa.

The kids throw caution to the wind and do what kids have been doing right before they get a machete in the skull in the "Friday the 13thl movies for years: screwing and drinking.

No way does "Donkey Punch" stop there - crack, ecstasy,an orgy with shangers in the middle of the ocean.

No one can hear you parry, or scream for help. fason putting these wayward youths out of their misery would be a mercy - and way too easyfor this welldrawn psychological thriller.

The fun and ganes last all of several hours, before the blood starts to spill. A bad, bad accident learcs one espe-

BYKRISTI DENKE SPECIALCOMMENTARY:

,.,afterI getsomehelp begins Success Anxiety is a day-to-day thing.

Some days you're swimming, some days you're heading water and some days you're dror.r'ning.

A year ago, the days of neading water wore thin. What should have been the unconscious processof putting myself lotsether every morning had becomea grind. Somemornings, with my book bag on my shoulder it would stop me at the door handle.

Timid has never been in my nature, but neither has admitting something is wrong. If I could have talked myself out of it, I lr'ould have.

But there was the door handle every morning and a world outside that left me completely shaken.

These days, I am a much shonger srvimmer because a team of therapists and doctors helped me get my head above water and keep it there.

I do something everyday that used to scare me and sometimessti:ll does. I leave the house. Standing on my ou.n feetis an addictivefeeling.It's a good feeling, but the pace at which it spreads through the rest of my life has been slow at times. It's like working through a laundry list of things left undone - the things an-yietj, kept

me from doing.

But on the other side of that door was one thing I regret letting slip arr"ay.IVIyeducation. The degreethat I'd thror,rn my mind at year after year suffered the greatest loss. Not one to admit defeat,I kept trying.I keptsinking. My gradeswent down uith me.

Early last week. it occurred to me that the next big thing would be to take back my education. Er€n if it means a long road ahead, my mind and spirit are ready for it.

I packed my bag. I took my student ID out of the chocolate tin next to my computer. I put my phone on silent, grabbed a bottle of water, and a pack of chewing gum. I made the trip from my nerv home in Fort Collins to Denver. What I didn't anticipate was mv bravery being knocked down and even hampered by several different administration ollices. First stop. the ad\ising o{fice.The adviser advising at the advising ollice desk offered me no advice. \A/hen I asked her if there was someone who'd be able to give me a broader view of my academic situation, she told me there rvas nothing the advising office could do for students r.r'ith more

than 3O credits. After she quoted holv many credit hours beyond their limit I was. I felt lame. Behind her computer and clipboard, I'm sure she felt pretty strong. I walked away with

Kristi Denkeis the former assistantphoto editor of TheMetropolitan.

Contacther at kdenke@mscd.edu. nothing, Instead of getting angrjl I decidedto check on my financial aid status. Although they quoted hon' many credits I have. they gave me hope that perhaps I can get financial - aid again. But beyondthe "Go get em tiger," moment. alas, there was not much more they muld do than send me to the Cashier'solice. From the Cashier'soflice I was directed to the Student Account's olfice.

The person al thc front deskappeared to be a student. If that's accurate, it's very likely this person had found work through the lvork-study program. Wbrk-study money comes from the state. Even if my accounts with the school are in arrears. some

tiny portion of the money from the state comesfrom my taxes. I stepp€d up to the desk. I put my student ID on the counter just like they ask. I explained in kind, short sentences that I needed to find a way to settle my account. Either by payment plan or by any other option aflorded to me. It wes good will that had led me there. I didn't go in search of bad news. Is ther€ a palment plan? No. \{'/}rat would I need to pay today to keep this account from being sent to state collections? More money than I have. What is the deadline to pay the entire balance?March. Is there anyone elseI can talk to? No. i tried to make mj/ accounts current and found myself immediately discouraged. In my mind I tried to calculate the possibility of putting, the monel' owed on my credit card (one I recently had the fortune of paying down to

s0).

Being in debt to a big building in New York City somehorv seemed more practical than paying it to my orm college. As far as I can tell, my creditors have aln'ays been happy to take my money- no matterhow small the check I lr-ritc might be. l\{elro is

a cesspool of misused resources and misguided talent. If it is possiblefor a person such as myself to go towards a known problem with a r,l'hiteflag, it should be just as possibleto be offered a hand in return.

I didn't ask for the advising olfice to fix my records that let me graduate without putting in my full effort or shaming those rrr,'hoachieve great things lvith the hindrance of such disorders as anxiety.

I didn't ask the accounts o{ficeto waive the tuition and fees I owed. I wanted no handouts. I didn't pound my fists on the counter or bring on the tears.I didn'teven bother stealing one of the pens they har€ attached to popsicle sticks to prei€nt their theft.

Though the more I think about it, I should have.

What lesson did I glean from my visit to almost every office in the building central to the administration of this place of higher learning?

Successbegins with me, but it ends as soon as I ask how to get there, and all of these things happened directly beneath the nose of the administrators rvho direct a collegethat touts its diversity and cowenience.

The cost of a good vocabulary A number of words come to mind when Metro is told - by the state- it has to pay back more money to the general fund than any other collegedur'rngthis financial crisis.

Keepin mind: Metro alreadyreceivesthe least funding of any other collegein the state.And, oh yeah,we havemore students,too.

Absurd is one.

Baclanrardmay be another.

With tuition relatively low, enrollrnent requirements virtually nonexistent and the highest undergraduate population in the state,we're sur€ you can think of a coupleas well. You should be good with words - after all, this is college,right?

Apparently, the state legislature doesn't seemto think so.

Western State College,CSU-Pueblo,Fort Lewis College,Adams State and Mesa State, now thos€arecolleges.Institutions with promise.Greatprograms.Goodstudents,Milk and honeyflowing from the water fountainsin the hallway.

Which is why the stategivesthem 60 percent more funding than Metro - a school that hasopenedits doorsto the huddledmassesyearning to be educatedsinceits inception.

We're glad our lawmakersknow their priorities.

Maybeyou work full time and find Metro's night classesconvenient. Maybe you didn't do so well in high school,decidedagainstcollege right after high school but eventually choseMeho becauseit didn't scrutinize your history. Maybeyou live in the city and found

Metro's locale inviting. Maybe you're living paycheckto paycheckand just couldn't afford CU-Boulder.Maybe you re a faculty member with Roadrunner ties who decidedto come back to the collegethat gaveyour future so muchpromise.

Whateverthe reason,iI you're here at this college,the state of Colorado doesn't think you are worth as much as someonewho is at any of thoseother colleges- institutions who received$30 million more with 5,000 fewer students.

Thinking of any words,yet?

In a completelyunrelated pieceof legislation - same-sexbenefitsfor gay and lesbian employeesof Colorado- DenverSen.Jennifer Veigatold her colleaguesthere is never a wrong time to act on principle.Weagree.And despitethe economicdowntu.rn,everystudent must be fundedequally.

Inequality- now there'sa word.

But wordscan only do so much. Action is much more effective.

We applaud PresidentStephenfordan for goingto the legislature.On March 9, Metro's StudentGovernmentAssemblyis goingup the hill to tak issuewith the lack of funding, as well.

If you think your school. your ducation and your student body is worth more than the legislature thjn}s it is, you shou]dgo with the SGA- teach thosepoliticians somenew words, Yod should hrow some- after all. this is yourcollege,right?

'Runnersvictory vs.Regisclinches spotin tourney asfourth seed

By EricLansing lansing@m scd.ed u

Metro women's basketball team earneda key victory Feb.24 upsetting Regis88-71 on the road in conferenceplay With the playoffslooming around the corner, each Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference game is vital.

But the win over the Rangers not only secureda spotin the postseason tournament, it might be the confidencebuilder the teamsneeds.

"This win is huge for us," Metro headcoachLindaLappesaid."We're fighting like crazy to hy and get the bestseedwe can get."

Metro has played eight games on the road sporting a 4-4 record in those games.But before Regis,they had yet to beat a team with a winning record on the road. With the good pbssibility that the 'Runners first playoff game will take place on an opponent'sfloor, the win could be a stepin the right direction.

"It's really exciting, an energy boost," Metro forward RaeBeansaid. '[t was a big gams fp1 us and 11!r/rt a gamewe really wanted, so we went and gotit."

Metro cameiDto the codtesttied

with the Rangersfor the sixth spotin the RMACstandings.

The game favored Metro at the half carrying a 42-3 8 point lead.The 'Runners were sharp from the floor hitting 59 percentof their shots.

But the story was the accurate 3-point shootinglrom Regis,as the home team drained 8-of-12 from beyond the arc in the fust half.

At the six-minute mark of the secondhalf, the Roadr'nners fell trehind by two alberJacqueMachesney hit consecutivefreethrows.

That would be the last points the Rangerswould score the rest of the game, as Metro's stingy defense clampeddownon the perimeter.

"We started doing a much better job of guardingtheir 3-point shooters," Lappe said. "They were living by the three there for a long time.

We finally buckled down and got in their faceslvhen they were shooting threes," Regiswent ice cold ftom dor,r,ntown, hitting nothing but air on four consecutive3-point attâ&#x201A;Źmpts in the final four minutes. In fact, they hit only 6-of-17in the secondhalf sending the home team to their first home lossin tluee weeks.

Bean scored a game-high 22 points and knew adiustmentshad to madeon Regis'outsideshooting.

"We hew the 3-point shooting would bea problemfor us," Beansaid abouthdr team'sl2th-placeranking in the conferencein 3-ooint defense.

wehad to do."

Regisforward Emily Kuipers led her teamwith 20 points,while grabbing five rebounds. The loss leaves Regis in the sixth spot, in line to play Nebraska-Keamey,the hottest teamin the RMACwith nine straieht wins.

The win improvesMetro's repord to 13-13 overalland 11-7 in the RMAC. They next head to Colorado Springs for a showdown with the Momtain Lions. There is an outside chancethe 'Runnerscould finish in the fourth spot of the standingsand host their first round game in the RMAC Tournament. But that scenario is out of their handsand the focus is just to build on this important RMACwin.

"I think we should have a lot of confidence going in the next few games here," Lappe said, "We've been playing well down the shetch.

We'vehad a couple of gameswhere we've slipped a little bit, but we've playedwell of late, and, hopefully we can continue that as the postseason getscloser,'

Nevertheless,the big bats were not shy either. First basemanJason Stouffer hit two home runs on the day.includinga grard slam.This increasedhis team-leadingtotal to five home runs this season.Center fielder and lead olT hitter Chris Redding also belted two home runs. Third

Metro sprinter Derek Fiorini set two school records in an impressivefashionFeb.20 at the Colorado School of Mines Twilight Open in Golden.

Fiorini clockeda 7:O5in the 60meter dash and smashedthe record in the 2oo-meterdashwith a time of 2 3:I 3. He broke the schoolrecord in the 60m lan. 24 at the Universityof Colorado Potts Invitational in Boulderd7:28, but it didn't feelright for Fiorini.

"My goal was to break seven," Fiorini said. '['m trying to improve my times to go to conference."

Fiorlni, a walk-on freshrnan,is a pleasantsurpriseasheadcoachPeter Julian said he believeshe has become one of the top sprinters in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.The secretto Fiorini'ssuccesscan be attributed to the hard work and dedication he put into training during the off-season.

"He'sgot a goodshotat beingAll" fulian said.

Conference, Metro u'ill be representedby a talentedteam of 14 men and women in the RMAC Championships,which takesplaceFeb.27 and 28 in Chadron, Neb. Fiorini will run the 6Om, 2OOmand the 4X400 meter relay, while middle distance runner Anthony Luna is running the mile and the half mile.

The team is prone to focus on distance running more than other events. The school does not have a proper track, which means the team cannot facilitatestudent athletesin events such as tle pole vault, shot put and hurdles. However, the fact that new facilitieshave yet to be built doesnot hurt the team. h actuality, the team is making good progress and is ableto focus more on running events.

"The luxury of not having a fu.ll team is looking at long-term develop " ment and personal achievements, said.

Iulian That kind of leeway allows athletessuchas sprinterLindsayNovasconeto work on other eventssuch as the longjump,which shequalifiedfor the finalsat the l\uilight Open.

Everymeetis a meansto end,but conferenceshould provide an extra amount of motivation and adrenaline, especially for the women's 4X400 group, which includesNovascone.

"I'm iust focused on running," Novasconesaid.
