Eagan police help recover stolen goods totaling $200,000-plus Burglary ring operated throughout Twin Cities by Erin Johnson THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Eagan and Apple Valley police have recovered more than $200,000 in stolen goods from a burglary ring that victimized at least 35 businesses throughout the metro area. David Montana Morse, of Ap-

ple Valley, has been charged with three felony counts in connection with the burglaries. The stolen goods were discovered at an Eagan storage locker during the execution of a search warrant Oct. 20. More stolen property was allegedly found at Morse’s home in Apple Valley, along with an unknown amount of methamphetamine and a loaded handgun, according to police. The type of property recovered

included construction equipment, electrical wire, electronics, recreational products and various tools. Police estimate the cumulative value of the property at more than $200,000. The property is believed to have been stolen primarily from businesses throughout the Twin Cities, from Prior Lake to Lake Elmo. Police were alerted to the stolen property during a traffic stop

in Lakeville that involved a car filled with laptop computers and theft tools. The driver said he got the items from Morse, who asked him to sell them. The driver also told officers about the storage locker in Eagan. The Dakota County Attorney’s Office has charged Morse, 25, with one count of receiving stolen property, one count of possession of burglary or theft tools, and one count of fifth-degree possession of a controlled substance.

A second suspect is cooperating with the investigation and is not expected to be charged, Eagan police said. The Eagan and Apple Valley police departments, along with the Dakota County Drug Task Force, are currently working to identify the owners of the stolen property.

Burnsville Ice Center reopens after $5 million renovation Grand reopening and Halloween party are on Oct. 31 by John Gessner THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Most of the $5 million in improvements made to the newly reopened Burnsville Ice Center aren’t visible to skaters, athletes or spectators. The two-rink building closed for six months of reconstruction, much of it involving the heating and air conditioning system and the refrigeration system. “It’s behind the scenes, so people don’t get to see a lot of it,� said Terry Schultz, Burnsville’s parks and natural resources director. “But I still think it’s of real value to the community.� Residents are invited to a grand reopening from noon to 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 31. Observers will notice the new “B� logo in the center of the Gary R. Harker Rink, the main spectator rink, as well as the new boards and glass around both of the rinks. The new sheets of glass are seamless, without

the steel support beams between them like the rinks used to have. “If you’re watching a (hockey) game, it’s a lot easier because you don’t have those obstructions,� Schultz said. “I think it’s a cleaner look for the rink.� The guts of the operation — the new geothermal system, the three new 100-ton compressors that drive the ice-refrigeration system — are plenty impressive to John VonBank. “Wow,� said VonBank, a 38-year city employee who has been the ice center’s maintenance supervisor since 1978. Along with the heating and ice systems, the concrete floors of both rinks were replaced. The Gary R. Harker Rink was built in 1972, and a second sheet of ice was added in 1985. The major systems in the building were all original equipment, which Von Photo by John Gessner Bank said has a 20- to 25-year life exJohn VonBank, maintenance supervisor at the Burnsville Ice Center, stands in front of the new pectancy. “We got our money’s worth,� he glass and center logo in the Gary R.

District 196 reviews middle school programming Dip in standardized testing leads to investigations into methods for improving assessment scores

BHS government students knock on doors, march in parades for campaigns as part of college-level class

What if knocking on doors or marching in parades were part of your homework? For her College in the Schools government class at Burnsville High School, senior Fenet Sima volunteered recently for the campaigns of state Sen. Jim Carlson of Eagan and gubernatorial candidate Mark Dayton. She went door-to-door in Eagan, a move that invokes recoil in some, but Sima said she enjoyed it. The experience offered her a chance to discuss issues with different types of people.

There is a noticeable, consistent pattern when it comes to middle school test scores. Student achievement can be on a pleasant ascent at both the elementary and high school levels, so much so that students exceed state averages by double-digit percentages. But it is not a continual ascent — it is not a smooth plane ride from runway to cruising altitude. Instead, in middle school something happens that jarringly drops the cruising jetliner from 30,000 to 20,000 feet, if but for three years. That dip in achievement is a persistent problem

nationwide, according to school officials. Count the RosemountApple Valley-Eagan School District as one of the districts not immune to this phenomenon. In an effort to fix that dip, District 196 administrators, along with a Middle School Program Review Committee, are engaging in extensive research and interviews. They are also taking advantage of the efforts to assess the district’s middle school program in its entirety. The effort is led by Teaching and Learning Director Steve Troen and Secondary Education Director Mark Parr. Those involved visited a dozen middle schools in

comparable districts such as Lakeville, Edina and Minnetonka, in addition to recording video interviews with administrators from four of those districts, Parr and Troen said at a School Board workshop on Oct. 25. In addition, Parr said, the group has embarked on extensive literature research relating to middle school achievement. The committee also has elicited input from district parents through community surveys, in addition to polling teachers.

Protective services petition reveals details of Rosemount family Eight-year-old smelling of pot smoke initially drew the attention of authorities THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

An Oct. 27 Dakota County child protection petition for four children reveals details about the Rosemount man who allegedly taught his teenage nephew to smoke pot on a YouTube video and about the children who were living in his home. According to the petition: Authorities learned about the family when they received a report on April 11 that an 8-year-old child had been picked up after visiting the home of Khari Jerome Anse Tillman and smelled strongly of marijuana. The child described what the reporter understood to be the making of “blunts,� which involves hollowing out a cigar and filling it with marijuana to smoke it. After learning there would be an investigation, the reporter recanted her statement and said it was a lie. Dakota County Social Services reported the incident to the Rosemount

Police Department, and on April 16, a meeting with a social worker and a Rosemount police investigator was arranged. Before the meeting could take place, Social Services received a mail copy of a video which contained four videos, one which showed Tillman smoking marijuana with his 15-year-old nephew. The videos – which showed Tillman and his nephew in a kitchen setting later identified by investigators to be the same as in Tillman’s home – were also found on YouTube, according to a criminal complaint. In an interview with a Rosemount police officer and a Dakota County social worker, Tillman stated that his nephew may have been around him while he was getting high in the past, but he never promoted or encouraged drug use. The boy reported that he used marijuana and alcohol when he was living with his father in Hennepin County, and had gotten in trouble in school for possessing marijuana about two weeks be-

fore investigators met with him. Also living in the home at the time were three other children, ages 4 to 15, two of whom were Tillman’s biological children. Each has a different mother. The petition states that the children are without proper parental care because of the emotional, mental or physical disability or state of immaturity of the children’s parent, guardian or custodian. The petition asks for the children to be placed into protective custody because of the use of marijuana and possibly other drugs.

County attorney petitions for protection of children left with uncle Were children left in an unsafe environment by investigators? by Laura Adelmann

gating a YouTube video his 15-year-old nephew to and a Dakota County soshowing a Rosemount smoke pot, why did a Rose- cial worker leave children In April, while investi- man allegedly teaching mount police investigator in the home, which could have been an unsafe environment? That question is behind an Oct. 27 petition by Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom to take the teen, who at the time was living with his uncle, Khari Jerome Anse Tillman Sr., into protective services now. Backstrom has charged Tillman, 32, with four child endangerment-related gross misdemeanors based on YouTube videos the investigator and social worker specified as the reason for their visit to the Tillman residence on April 16. According to an Oct. 20 Dakota County criminal complaint, some of the YouTube videos show Tillman smoking marijuana with his 15-year-old nephew. The complaint states that in a video titled “Free Class,� Tillman instructs his nephew how to hollow out a cigar and fill it with marijuana to make a “blunt.� In some of the videos, the two allegedly appear to be under the influence of marijuana or another drug. Police downloaded copies of the videos for evidence before the Dakota County social worker contacted Tillman on April 14 to arrange the home visit. At some point after the social worker’s call, the YouTube videos were removed from the site. But during the invesTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

tigator’s visit, no other evidence was collected because the investigating officer determined that a search warrant was not needed, according to Rosemount Police Chief Gary Kalstabakken. “In some situations, yes, what you see on video could be enough to get a search warrant. In this case, a search warrant was not obtained because it was not deemed necessary,� Kalstabakken said. But having hard evidence is crucial in court cases involving photos or videos, said Sgt. Joe Leko, head of the Dakota County Drug Task Force. “It could be a cigar. You don’t have any physical evidence there to show it’s marijuana,� Leko said. And there was no petition filed to remove any child from Tillman’s home, a decision that Backstrom reversed with the order of protection he issued Wednesday to take four children who were living in the home into protective custody. State law gives only law enforcement the authority to remove a child and place the child on an emergency protective care hold, according to information from the Dakota County Attorney’s office. In the field, social workers and police often work together to make those determinations, according to the county. “Social Services and law enforcement made an initial conclusion that the children in this home were not in imminent danger (which

is the legal standard to remove a child from the caretaker’s home),â€? Backstrom said in an e-mail. He added, “Upon my review of the criminal charges filed in this matter last week, I concluded that further Social Services intervention into this situation was warranted. We have subsequently filed a CHIPS (child in need of protection or services) petition ‌ which will allow such intervention to occur.â€? Regarding Backstrom’s petition, Kalstabakken said the initial investigation revealed the child was not in immediate danger, and more information may have come to light since April. According to Backstrom, the boy had been living with Tillman for three to six months, after his mother, Tillman’s sister, died. Originally, the boy had lived with his father in Hennepin County. Tillman picked up the child from his father several months later, said Backstrom, who added that the father’s whereabouts are currently unknown. Additionally, Backstrom said that the boy has not lived with Tillman since July 19, due to a probation violation against Tillman in Hennepin County for robbery and assault charges. Backstrom said that when family members take in minors, no legal custody process is required. During the April 16 home interviews, both Tillman and the boy denied using marijuana or making the videos, according to the complaint. Tillman also reportedly told police he had saved his nephew from a life of drugs and crime, and added that he had not used drugs in a year. Kalstabakken said he could understand why there appear to be contradictions in the case, considering that no children were removed from the home, yet the four charges against Tillman are all related to child endangerment. “This case points out some things that are difficulties for police and Social Services,â€? he said, adding that the living conditions in the home did not warrant the children’s removal. “Not every home is pristine, and this is one of those cases,â€? he said.

some insight into one thing; the achievement dip. “Kids are going through rapid development (during middle school),� Parr said, adding that the range of cognitive maturity is quite wide for students in this age group. One way the committee is debating to revamp middle school programming and bolster student achievement involves a type of intervention called “personalization.� The better the interpersonal relationships students have with their teachers — and the more teachers recognize a student’s success — the better that success, Troen said. The efforts are still in the middle stage of the process. November will see presentation and focus group meetings for staff and parents. In December, Parr and Troen will present the final committee findings and recommendations to the board. The effort is not so extreme as to obliterate the entire current middle school model, though, Troen said. “There are strong elements to our middle schools,� he said. “This is not a ‘baby out with the bath water’ thing. We’re just looking at different models.� E-mail Aaron Vehling at aaron. vehling@ecm-inc.com.

Opinion Guest Columnist Many factors influence city’s tax decisions by Elizabeth Kautz MAYOR OF BURNSVILLE

On Tuesday, Sept. 7, the Burnsville City Council adopted a maximum tax levy of 5.6 percent. That action has been reported via several outlets. I believe those reports could use some additional clarification. The final determination of the levy amount will be made in December. We will work between now and then to reduce the levy below this point. This maximum tax levy reflects a gross increase of 5.6 percent. Of that increase, 3.3 percent will be offset by revenues available to the city for the first time as a result of the finalization of Tax Increment Financing District 1 — the Southcross industrial area. An additional 0.5 percent of the increase will be offset by new revenues available to us for the first time from tax base growth. It is wonderful that in these difficult economic times that Burnsville has been able to experience this growth. The balance, about 1.8 percent, will be payable from existing single-family residential properties, multifamily residential properties, commercial properties and industrial properties. For an average single-family residence

this would be about 5 cents per day. I approach city business practices much as the private sector does. But there is a difference — the city is a creature of the state and is regulated differently than private businesses. Political ideology is not my primary consideration, but instead, as with any business, it is the viability of our “products.” I believe that the city products — basic services, public infrastructure, the environment, and amenities — drive business to our community and ensure the quality of life for our residents. Several of my advisors from the private sector have urged me to reduce the price of materials that the city buys as they have been able to do in their businesses. The city has been able to reduce material costs. It seems every time we open bids we are pleasantly surprised because the costs are lower than they have been in years. So why aren’t these savings translating into lower tax levies? The answer lies in the fact that material procurements are a small

part of the costs in the general fund (only about 20 percent). The real costs lie in personnel, the area of real challenge. City nonunion wages have been frozen since January of 2009 and will be through the end of this year. But more than half of our work force is unionized, and most are “essential-services” employees. We bargain with them to achieve what we feel are fair salary levels. But according to state law, these bargaining units can cause any wage dispute to be placed in front of state-appointed arbitrators who will determine what the pay will be. The city has nearly always avoided the need to go to arbitration, but that option does exist for our essential-service workers. In the end the City Council may not have the final say on compensation for these essential-service workers. Pensions are another concern. Again, the state defines the pension system for city employees. They dictate to the employees how much they must save, and they dictate to the city how much of those employee savings it must match. This is a heavy burden for the city over which it has no control.

In 2010 the council cut the general fund budget by about 10 percent. In order to accomplish this about 20 positions were eliminated and other measures were taken. This allowed us to adopt a zero dollar levy increase despite the fact that in that same year the state reneged on its promise to send about $1 million in reimbursement for city dollars expended on the State Market Value Homestead Credit program. The state mandates for a small and unlucky subset of communities, including Burnsville, that the city taxpayers fund the program. My point here is that we really have worked to be responsible and good stewards of the taxpayer dollar. Many of our private companies have reduced their work force when the demand for their products or services went down. They simply did not have the work to justify keeping the same staffing levels. Unfortunately, despite the downturn in the economy, the demand for city services has not decreased. It has increased. We have tried to do more with less and in some cases we have made real gains, but for the most part when we reduce staff we reduce services. My challenge is in truly under-

standing what level of service our taxpayers as a whole want and are willing to pay for. I believe that based on economics alone we must have a safe and well-maintained city for businesses and our residents. If we don’t have a viable product, the city will experience flight from both its businesses and its residents. That will create another problem with huge costs. I am sure that you have noted my emphases above on our relationship with the State. Truthfully, it really needs to change. The state cannot be depended on to meet its obligations to cities. In fairness, the state does have its own difficult challenges. My colleagues on the City Council and I are painfully aware that these are difficult days for our businesses and residents. I pray that our economy will recover from this recession soon and that our hard-working business owners will be able to return to profitability with new jobs for those who need them.

Letters Madore responds to endorsement of Kline

Wisconsin 86 cents, Iowa $1.10, South Dakota $1.53 and North Dakota $1.68. If Kline believes the earmark system is a less than ideal way to return tax dollars to the community, perhaps he should author and pass a bill that changes the system. Merely refusing to work within the existing process is not saving taxpayers in our district a single dollar. Instead, the dollars they pay are spent for projects in other states, putting our district at a serious disadvantage for attracting new businesses and jobs. As you pointed out, Kline’s voting record is far more conservative than previous representatives who have served our district. In fact, Kline’s votes are almost identical to Congresswoman Michele Bachmann’s. Conversely, our district’s election results have been less conservative over time. In 2002, only four of the district’s state legislators were Democrats. Today, our district includes 12 Democratic legislators. As you also mentioned, John Kline’s refusal to publicly debate me is poor constituent service. Not only does he refuse to discuss his voting record in public debates, he also often refuses to meet with constituents whose position he disagrees with. That is no way to run a Congressional Office.

To the editor: After visiting with the ECM editorial board for more than two hours, discussing a broad range of issues, I was quite surprised to read that you had endorsed my opponent, incumbent Rep. John Kline, with absolutely no mention of our contrasting positions on important issues. (“John Kline has the Second District’s proven support, and ours,” Oct. 22.) There was no mention of his vote for the bank bailout and against the Yellow Ribbon program for veterans. No mention of his vote against the stimulus program before deciding to write letters requesting stimulus money. Kline claims to be against earmarks and won’t request them for our own district but votes for plenty that benefit other districts and states. Thank you, ECM, for acknowledging that I have a point regarding my opponent’s refusal to request our federal tax dollars for roads, bridges and other important projects here in our district. As a result, for every tax dollar we send to Washington, our district gets only 35 cents back. Other Minnesota districts get an average of 77 cents and our neigh- SHELLEY MADORE boring states get even more: Apple Valley

Editor’s note: The writer is the DFL candidate for Congress in the 2nd District.

Vote John Kline out of office To the editor: I disagree with your editorial endorsement of John Kline. Ever since Jim Ramstad was replaced by John Kline nothing has been done for the 2nd District. Kline talks big but he is not representing our district. Taxes that we pay do not come back to us to improve our area. He has denied using his office to help local governments obtain money that could be used for creditable projects resulting in more jobs for our area. His denial to debate his opponent shows his arrogance for us. Why doesn’t he debate? Is he afraid of what we might learn? He is an elected official and should be responsible to us. The surveys he mails out are worded so you agree with him whether you vote yes or no. Read them sometime. They are printed with tax money. I also love his phone calls when he tells me “he is sorry that I missed his town hall meeting” when I had no awareness of it beforehand. Maybe Kline should start with reducing the salary and perks that representatives get. Maybe he should

Corrections

start with reducing the military spending. We spend 61 percent of our tax money on the military. Sixty-one percent plus. Think of how much better we could be with that money. We would not have to worry about rising deficits. It is time we ask our government to be responsible for our money as much as we are in our own household budgets. If John Kline voted 94 percent with the Republican party then why pay for him in the first place? Just send a rubber stamp.

Eagan wins consolation title by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Eagan girls tennis team made the most of its trip to the state tournament. Eagan defeated Cretin-Derham Hall 4-3 in the consolation finals at the Class AA state girls tennis tournament on Wednesday at the Baseline Tennis Center at the University of Minnesota. The singles lineup really came through at state. No. 2 singles Elizaveta Zeleninia, No. 3 singles Varvara Zeleninia, No. 4 singles Brielle Chavie, and No. 3 doubles Danielle Fischer and Ciara Rivera all won their matches in the consolation finals and in the consolation semifinals. Elizaveta had the closest match in the semifinals. She won her second set 11-9 against Erin Hynes in a tiebreaker. The Wildcats were given a daunting task in the first round of the Class AA state tournament on Tuesday: Beat the unbeatable. The girls faced Edina, a

team going for its 14th consecutive and 29th overall title, in the quarterfinals. The Wildcats were swept 7-0 and no one took their match to three sets. Varvara Zeleninia came the closest at No. 3 singles, losing her first set 7-5 against Maddie Boyer. That put the Wildcats in the consolation bracket against Elk River, another top-ranked team. This time Eagan won 4-3. One Wildcat wasn’t done playing high school tennis in 2010. Danielle Donahue played in the state singles tournament on Thursday after winning the Section 3AA title.

Burnsville breaks out Blaze to face Rosemount in Section 3-5A quarterfinals on Saturday by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Amid fierce winds and few spectators, the Burnsville football team won its first playoff game since 2006 on Tuesday night. The Blaze never gave up. Not during the season and not during the game. At one point during the season, the Blaze were 1-3. Now they’re playing Rosemount in the Section 3-5A semifinals on Saturday night. Against Apple Valley on Tuesday, Burnsville fell behind 16-6, but scored 16 points in the fourth quarter to win 22-16. The Blaze led 6-2 at half-

time thanks to a 71-yard pass from Cameron Jones to Dan Nguyen for 80 yards. In the third quarter, Apple Valley got its running game going. Steve Maxwell broke free on the second play of the second half for 71 yards, putting the Eagles ahead. A 30-yard run by Eagle Antonio Seals nine minutes later and the Burnsville sideline was looking pretty grim. “I didn’t want this to be our last game,” Jones said, who has started for Burnsville for the past three years. “This was huge for us seniors. Burnsville hasn’t won a playoff game since we were freshmen.”

In the fourth, CJ Smith cut the deficit to 16-14 with a 2-yard run and Jones took it in himself for 15 yards with 1:37 remaining to win the game. “It feels great,” Jones said. “This was huge for us.” This was the first year since 2006 Burnsville has had a home playoff game when they played in the Section 2-5A finals against Eden Prairie. Since then it’s been one and out. If the Blaze want to play for a section title, they’ll have to do something no one has been able to do this year, which is beat Rosemount. Burnsville last played

PRESSBOX in Section 2. Dividing up the sections is a convoluted, imperfect process that changes almost every other year. The Minnesota State High School League attempts to have representation from every geographical location of Minnesota. They want to make sure the northern, southern, metro and suburban schools have representation. That’s a worthy goal, but I don’t think that’s the only goal. They also want a competitive balance. They don’t want the same teams going

to state every year. For several years all Lakeville sports competed in Section 1 against teams from southern Minnesota such as Rochester. Section 1 isn’t normally as strong as Section 3. (There are exceptions, just ask the tennis teams.) I know several coaches from Owatonna to Rochester get pretty sick of losing to Lakeville come playoff time. To that I say, “Play better.” If you want to play in the state tournament, you should be one of the best teams in the state. From hockey to soccer, you’ll see a .500 team from Lakeville win the section. If you can’t beat a .500 team in the section finals, how do

you think you’ll do at state? Would Lakeville survive in another section? Of course. But I’d rather see a state tournament where it’s the best of the best, but there’s no way to line up the section so that happens. People complain about every playoff setup, from college football’s BCS system to the Olympics. Last year there was talk of doubling the NCAA basketball bracket. Going to state is fun, but it should be reserved for the best. I just wish there was more consistency. A South Suburban Conference title should stand on its own.

The No. 2 seed in Section 3-5A acted like it on Tuesday night, beating No. 8 Bloomington Jefferson 126. Eastview’s Frank Veldman got the first score off a 55-yard punt return and Alex Suker added some insurance in the fourth quarter with a 3-yard touchdown run. The win puts Eastview in a home semifinal game

against Bloomington Kennedy at 7 p.m. on Sunday. Eastview won a meeting with Kennedy earlier this season 25-7 on Sept. 24. Quarterback Ryan Regar had a breakout game rushing for two touchdowns and passing for the other two. Derek Schatz also broke onto the scene with 105 yards rushing. Kennedy is 3-6 on the season with wins against Burnsville, Bloomington Jefferson and Prior Lake. Kennedy’s leader offensively is rusher Lexis Jones, who has six 100-yard rushing games this year. But Kennedy’s defense has held teams to under 20 points just twice this season. Since Sept. 17, the Lightning have gone 6-1, scoring more than 20 points in every game.

said. The energy-saving geothermal system draws its heating and cooling power from the Earth itself. A well field that partially circles the building has 206 wells, each 2 inches in diameter and 200 feet deep. A glycol substance is circulated from the wells to the building through a heat-transfer system to provide heating or cooling. “Basically, the Earth’s temperature is fairly constant,� Schultz said. “You can take advantage of that condition to either heat or cool as needed.� The ice center’s compressors also generate heat, which can be captured to help heat the building, he said. New fluorescent lights in both rinks, which can be adjusted to run at different levels, will contribute to energy savings, Schultz said. The city won a $315,000 U.S. Department of Energy grant from funds included

in the economic stimulus act approved by Congress. “Overall, we estimate we will reduce our energy use by about 43 percent,� Schultz said. “That equates to about $77,000 per year in electric and natural gas savings.� By the numbers, the renovation includes 16 miles of piping in the geothermal well field and 10 miles of piping in each rink floor that carries the coolant to make the ice, Schultz said. A total of 560 tons of concrete were poured to make the new rink floors.

hockey, VonBank said. “We didn’t have any problems over there,� he said. “They pretty much turned it over to us.�

Grand reopening and Halloween party The grand reopening will coincide with the center’s annual Halloween party. A dedication ceremony with Mayor Elizabeth Kautz will begin at 11:45 a.m. That will be followed by free open skating on both rinks. There will be a haunted house and candy giveaways. The Burnsville Hockey Club, the figure skating club and the city’s Learn to Skate program will have information tables. The center is at 251 Civic Center Parkway in Civic Center Park.

Class/from 1A tion at all. “They said they ‘don’t want to talk about it,’ � Sima said. The BHS College in the Schools program, operated in conjunction with the University of Minnesota, is designed to teach students college-level government lessons as they earn college credits. Among the tasks that go beyond a standard gov-

ernment class, said teacher Colleen Coleman, is a volunteer requirement. Students can choose to work on campaigns for candidates at any level, from local school board elections to gubernatorial races. Over the course of Sima’s experiences, she often encountered people who wanted to discuss the issues, which she says centered on two main topics: jobs and education. This made it easy for her

because the candidates for whom she was volunteering discussed both issues extensively, she said. Alex Mitchell, Sima’s classmate, marched in Burnsville’s Fire Muster parade in support of local legislator Will Morgan. Mitchell said the experience was valuable because it opened him up to the political process more so than if he were on the sidelines. He encountered some supporters of Pam Myhra,

Morgan’s opponent, but there were no riots. “No one was really negative,� Mitchell said. “We even laughed a bit.� The CIS government class often attracts those students interested in civic engagement and the politics therein. For example, Anarae Schunk, who volunteered this year with Myhra’s campaign for the Legislature doing office work, door-knocked for President

Obama’s campaign in 2008. “It’s interesting talking to people who represent both sides,� Schunk said. “It’s just about trying to get the word out.� Not that the political process is a profoundly sustainable exercise in endurance for everyone. For one thing, Schunk said, she is dismayed by some candidates’ political duplicity. “They represent what they think they are sup-

posed to be,� Schunk said. “It’s hard to vote knowing that they aren’t following themselves.� And then there are those citizens who don’t pay attention at all. “Some people still don’t take the time to inform themselves,� she said. “It’s a really sensitive issue.�

Forays in Pig’s Eye Coleman collaborates with government teachers Michael Franssen, Jenn Graff and Kathryn Wendling to provide students the opportunity to spend time at the Capitol with legislators, often those from local districts. “They pick a bill, research it and then talk with the bill’s author,� Coleman said. Issues that students have taken up include puppy mills, an organic compound used in the manufacture of certain plastics and driving while using cell phones. “Students can find their niche,� Coleman said. Morgan, a DFL member of the Minnesota House of Representatives from Burnsville and a science teacher at BHS, has hosted several classes of government students since he first took office in January 2007. He described the CIS government day at the Capitol. He typically sets up a meeting space for students to interact with the legislative members from areas within the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District. “Usually the room is just packed,� Morgan said. “There are kids on the floor and in the corners. I don’t know if it’s because I’m their teacher or what.� There is a demonstrated educational benefit to “making learning more relevant,� Morgan said. “They pick a bill that interests them. They go to a committee when that bill is being heard.� The general ambience of a presence at a place as historic as the Capitol helps, too. “They get to ask questions in an environment that encourages them to ask questions,� he said. “Ideally, we’re graduating more civicminded students.�

In the classroom, students engage in deep discussions about current events and explore historical moments that contributed to those events. They also address Supreme Court decisions, Coleman said. Most recently, the students took interest in the arguments regarding the Westboro Baptist Church’s right to protest funerals — whether their antigay and anti-Jewish protestations are hate speech or protected free speech. Topics in which classic political science and party politics converge can be tough to address in a nonpartisan classroom environment, especially during virulently partisan election seasons, but Coleman has a sure-fire approach. “As the teacher, it is my job to present the information in a nonpartisan way,� she said. “There is a lot of room for discussion and debate, but I let students share their opinions and discuss with each other.� As part of the U of M connection, students are provided access to faculty mentors and attend seminars on campus with other CIS students. Add this to the aforementioned curriculum, and, Coleman says, “students can become more involved citizens.�

When he took the certified public accountant exam in Minnesota, he received the Harold C. Utley Award for having the highest test score in the state.Coglitore taught accounting and auditing at St. Thomas for 27 years and received the university’s highest teaching honor, the Professor of the Year Award, in 2006. “I truly love going into the classroom and teaching,� he said at the time, “and plan to keep doing so as long as I enjoy working with our students and feel I’m making a contribution. “While some could consider the field of accounting to be fairly cut and dried, there are many things that are open to interpretation. Our students need to know what is the right thing to do. We instill in them a professional code of conduct.� Dr. Christopher Puto, dean of the Opus College of Business, said Coglitore’s “approach to his classes and to his students embodies all of the elements we value so highly at St. Thomas.� A guest book at www.whitefuneralhomes.com
