MSC President: Search Rules

~Reaffirnied by Robert Davis Reporter, The Metropolitan

The chairman of the Trustees Selec­tion Committee decided last week to hold to existing consortium policies confining sister-search committee, the Institutional Advisory Committee, to four representatives at the first set of interviews for MSC presidential can­didates.

The president of the Consortium of State Colleges, Dr. Richard Laughlin, who offered the idea of allowing more members of the IAC to attend the inter­views, said Monday that TSC Chair­man George Woodard had decided against the proposill. · "The chairman made the decision to hold to policy." Laughlin said.

- s Lounge Survey, Proposed /

SFPC Kills Student Cable. ·syStem by Kevin Vaughan

~iwr, The Metropolitan

The Student Facilities Policy Council last Friday killed the first phase 0£..the Auraria Student Cable System by refus­ing to provide funding necessary to locate television monitors in seven stu-

~ dent lounges across campus. The Student Center Advisory

Board-which had recommended to the SFPC that it pass the motion-will now review the decision and decide what to do next.

The vote on the motion, which ""'would have entitled the allocation of

$5,000 from the Student Center bond reserve to purchase seven television monitors, was defeated by a vote of three to three, with one abstention.

The main argument at the meeting • centered on whether or not the place­. -ment of the monitors in student lounges

across cmapus would disrupt students tryin~ to studv.

Some SFPC members said they would rather see a study Uo¥.-~ out exactly what the studen1S'W"the lounges thought about the installation of the monitors.

However, Ben Boltz, an AS MSC Senator and the architect of the cable proposal, advocated the installation of the monitors with the idea of studying student reactions later.

Air "The installation time would provide plenty of time to research the plan ... It's hard to tell what student's reactions would be without having them install­ed in the lounges"

He further argued that the monitors - -would not be in every lounge, but in t only one lounge per building on cam­pus.

"The SFPC needs to decide what its policy is on the lounges," SFPC Chariman Ken Cole said. "Do we con­sider them places to buy food from

..... machines and sit at tables and eat, are they places to study, or are they places for students to meet."

Some board members also expressed concern about the programming selec-

r Erratum A September 19 story about

immunizing students against measles incorrectly reported that people 17 or older can assume they are immune to ~easies. The article also reported that pregnant women should be immuniz­ed. The actual age at which people should consider themselves immune is 27. Pregnant women shollld not be immunized. ~ In the same issue, an article dealing with ESL teachers and Southeast Asian students incorrectly attributed a story about a policeman and a S.E. Asian student to Gwen Hill. The story is pro­perly attributed to Cindy Lawrence. Further, Hill was described as a UCD ~nglish instructor. Her proper title is Associate Director for the Academic -Center For Enrichment.

"The installation time woukl provide plen­ty of time to research the plan ... lt's hard to tell . , what students l'eactions woukl ht:

' without having them installed in the lounges" ... This is "designed as a learning tool toward the total implimentation of the system." -Ben Boltz

''The SFPC needs to decide what its policy is on the lounges. Do we consider them places to buy food from machines and sit at tables and eat, are they places to study, or are they places for students to meet. "

tion for the televisions while the system is still in its early stages.

"I do not want to support something that is Big Brotherish, 1984, something that is sending out messages without feedback," Cole said.

"The program selection becomes a key to this," Cole said. "We have live events that suffer from low attendance, and maybe the low attendance is because people are in the lounges." .

Boltz countered that the installation of the televisions was "designed as a learning tool towards the total implementation of the system."

Board member David Conde, Assis­tant Vice President for Student Affairs, supported the implementation of phase one of the project as a move into the future for Auraria.

"With telecommunications there is no turning_ back, the time has come for this technology. Once the system is established people will become interested in it ... It will help make this campus part of the real world. It is a very good program to inform the students because a lot of students don't know what is going on."

Cole ~as- the lone abstention on the

vote, and said his decision came because he did not want to go on record . as not supporting the system but that he felt he needed more information to wholeheartedly stand behind it.

"If we start the ball rolling, we better be ready to back it up," Cole said.

In other business, the SFPC approv­ed the purchase of 5,000 square feet of space in the new UCD replacement building for food service. The space· will replace food service faciliti~ that will be lost when the new UCD building is erected and the East Classroom is sold. . 0

"It's not a bad decision, you might get a better response with

"I'm going to feel that my role in this whole thing bas been insignificant if I'm not allowed to see the responses IAC chairwoman Frieda Holley said

she was not surprised by the decision. She said she hoped the IAC wouldn't have to face the problem of choosing.

"I felt: Oh rats. That means we have to make the decision." Holley said.

IAC member Edward Karnes said it might have been better to allow one more member to go. Five members, he sa.id, would enable the committee to send a representative from each group on campus.

The IAC is composed of seven consti-

tuents: Three faculty members, Frieda Holley, Gregory Pearson, and Edward Karnes, an administrative official Cheryl Presledy, a classified staff member Darlynn Cloyd, a student Lisa Espiritu, and and alumni represen­tative Fred Hopkins.

Karnes said of the TSC decision, "It's not a bad decision, you might get a bet­ter response with fewer pople asking the questions."

~residential Applications Abound There are over on~ hundred persons

currently being considered for the posi­tion of MSC president, IAC chair­woman Frieda Holley said, Monday.

Of the 111 files being reviewed by the Presidential Search and Assessment Service in Washington D. C., 4 7 have been nominated and 64 have come in as applications, Holley said.

PSAS has been hired by MSC to. review applicants and search for possi­ble candidates.

The top 20 to 30 candidates should

be picked and delivered to the TSC and IAC by October 10, Holley said.

The IAC will then pick five-to-ten candidates for off-campus interviews.

Holley said the off-campus inter­views should be conducted in early November. From those results the two committees will choose three to five finalist for on-campus interviews.

The final, on-campus, interviews should be held December 1, Holley said. 0

, ~Computers Confuse College Students PITI'SBURGH, PA (CPS)- Most col­

lege freshmen are surprised, confused and frustrated during their first year of computer courses, according to a newly-released study. ~ The computer anxiety afflicts incom­

ing students in all majors, but may be particularly severe among liberal arts majors, observers add.

Over 80 percent of all incoming freshmen are "surprised" by the subject matter covered in computer c6urses,

"'the survey reveals. Moreover, one of every two freshmen

are "confused" by computer coursework, while nearly 70 percent say the courses actually make tliem "frustrated" and "angry."

._ "When freshmen go away to college they have a lot of new experiences. But the computer science courses turn out to be much different than any of the new students expected," says Lee Sproull, a research~r at Carnegie Mellon University who has surveyed .CMU freshmen over the last three years to assess their attitudes toward com­puter courses there.

Among other things, Sproull says entering students find computer courses "more surprising, more confusing and harder to get a handle on" than their 'Other courses.

And such confusion over computers "is true of liberal arts as well as

technical students," she adds. One of the reasons for the so-called

computer anxiety, Sproull says, is that students are often "thrust into the com­puter culture" before they learn how computers work and understand the special language used in computer courses.

Like at many schools, "computing at CMU is not simply a question of learn­ing about computers in a classroom set­ting. Computing is a part of the whole work life at a campus," Sproull notes.

With more traditional subjects like history, math, or physics, she says, students learn in a sheltered, academic

·environment, and ease their way into the subjects as their ability and understanding increases.

But the "hands-on" experience in computer classes catapaults students directly into the real-life world of com­puting, frequently without any prior exposure to the subject or the machines.

Thus, "students who are new to comJ puting end up using the campus main­frame right beside advanced users, which often makes the newcomers feel intimidated and even more confused," she says.

"That's a natural reaction for just about anyone who has to use computers in the presence of experienced users," agrees Mark Tucker, director of the Project on Information Technology and

Education in Washington, D.C. "And the confusion and intimidation·

cycle repeats itself each time you use a different computer or a new piece of software," he adds; "which makes it a lot different from learning other college subjects."

To ease students' entry into the cam­pus computer culture, researcher Sproull suggests colleges offer.computer orientation courses so students will learn the basic rules and lingo before taking a computer course.

In addition, colleges need to "make their terminal rooms less aversive," she says.

"Many of the students we surveye<,l said the computer rooms reminded them of a scene out of '1984' because they were so cold and sterile. Computer rooms should be more warm and inviting," Sproull notes.

"Some students become very exhilarated by their new-found knowledge and say 'Wow, I never knew this could be so fun."

On the other hand, those who never quite overcome the confusion and frustration "end up doing just enough to get by," while still others give up on the subject aj.tog~ther, she says. O

# . f OP/ED Handgun Laws, a Threat· to F:reedoin.

The Peoples' distrust of Government and public attitudes toward politics are of serious concern. Candidates do want to relate to people. My letter addresses this concern and is intended to help you.

People oppose Government intrusion in their personal lives and bureaucratic regulations and denials of their rights .

..., Whatever their true motives, that a few small organizations so distrust the peo-ple to own and. use firearms and seek to undermine and subvert this right alarms many of the millions of citizens having guns-and loving liberty and freedom.

Can a Government which distrusts its citizens to keep and bear arms be trusted by its citizens? Only a Government of free people .can trust an armed citizenry.

In his book "Restricting Handguns-Liberal Skeptics Speak Out," civil rights • activist Professor Don. B. Kates shows historically "the purpose of these laws is to

disarm the blacks, the laboring poor, and the foreign born in order to prevent social unrest." Witness the emotional catch-words "Saturday Night Special" used by some persons wishing to ban the small, less expensive handgun a poor person might be able to afford-class discrimination. Obviously) GUN CONTROL IS PEOPLE CONTROL.

As we know: 1) Governments before ours were supreme authorities giving, if it pleased them,

some few rights or privileges to the people. 2) Our Government is unique in that a free people, with all their natural and

individual rights, formed a Government limited to those powers delegated by the people to the Government in a contract-the Constitution.

3) Then to emphasize a few particular individual rights the first then Amend­ments-the Bill of Rights-was added to the Constitution to remind the Govern,­

,. ment to keep "Hands Off." 4) The Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights of the Constitution, "A well

regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed," entails the right of the individual citizen to keep and bear arms and obli~ates the citizens to protect a free state. ·

5) And just to caution the Government that a free people retain all their '" individual rights even though only a few were listed in the first eight Amend­

ments, the Ninth Amendment of the Bill of Rights was added, "The enumeration · in the Gonstitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage

others retained by the people." The Phrase "by the people" in the First, Second, Fourth, and Ninth Amendments similarly refers to individual rights.

6) Again the people gave an emphatic reminder that the Government has only the limited powers.delegated to it-and no more-by adding the Tenth Amend­ment to complete the Bill of Rights, "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States, respectively, or to the people."

7) Of the 50 States, 36 States or more have right to keep and bear arms provi­sions in their State Constitutions. The Colorado State Constitution, Article II, Section 13 reads, "Right to Bear Arms. The right of no person to keep and bear arms in defense of his home, person, or property, or in aid of the civil power when thereto legally summoned, shall be called in question, but nothing herein contain- · ed shall be construed to justify the practice of carrying concealed weapons."

Since written history began, mankind's record is abundant with persecutioqs, suppression and destruction of defeated or minority peoples, political opponents and religious groups. Words in our-dictionaries reflect the official inhumanities inflicted on the helpless, such as: a) genocide, noun, the systematic extermination or destruction of an entire people or national groups; or b) massacre, noun, the killing of those who are defenseless are in resisting, as in barbarous warfare.

Within the time of my life, recent history has added records of mass murder in Cambodia, China, Germany, Poland, Russia, and Uganda, to name a few. Do you know of one Holocaust or general mass murder except of defenseless, unarmed citizens by armed Government forces?

I am thankful for this opportunity to express why I distrust a "Big Brother" Government and in a small way to refute some of the propaganda of small but vocal groups distrusting the American People to keep and bear arms. I can't understand this attitude of some self-appointed elite group so distrusting, looking down on the average people of this country. Except, of course, that "Gun Control" has a history of restrictions to try to keep guns from those whose social positions differ from th-at of the elite group.

MS~ Government Report

OYEZ OYEZ OYEZ .. . The third and final branch of Student Government has now sprouted. The Associated Students of Metropolitan State College now have a Judicial Board. "So What?" says you, and well you might, for you have elected a Student Government" so you don't have to concern yourself with nasty little details such as J-Boards and can instead pursue those ever elusive "A's''. But remember, now that a J-Board is in place you have a opportunity to have your grievances against the Student Government adjudicated in a formal venue. "What Grievances?", you might ask, well, perhaps you feel that club funds are being unfairly distributed or maybe you feel that a Student Government officer is taking unfair advantage of his or her position. Your remedy? File a complaint with Laura Rid~ell, Steve Buhai, Vicky Meier or myself-Chris Dahle.

In order to participate in Student Government, a student must maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0, be degree seeking and have completed or in progress 10 semester hours. In order to serve on the Judiciary Board or the Senate a student must maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.25 or greater, have completed 20 semester hours and have at least 6 semester hours in progress. The President, Vice­President and Student Representative to the Board of Trustees must maintain a 2.5 GPA, have completed 25 hours and have 6 or more semester hours in progress. While these requirements may seem stringent to some, academic progress is the primary purpose of Metropolitan State College. At several other colleges it is entirely possible to flunk out of school while pursuing student politics, but we have desi1ZJ1ed our constitution to avoid that problem.

All judiciary board actions can be pursued only at the request of a member of the ASMSC who is not a member of the J-Board.

In Cop_ing With Guilt Men, Women Differ

by Nonna Restivo Reporter, The Metropolitan

·· It's 1":50 p.m. and you're sitting at the Mercantile, debating on whether to go to that dull 2:00 class. At 2: 15 you're still gulping beer, a vague feeling of guilt beginning to envelope you.

According to Psychiatric Social Worker Libby Bortz, guilt is a learned emotion.

"Who has ever seen a baby respond with guilt when they wake you at 2:00 a.m.? We see guilt arising from shoulds and oughts. These are parental messages, coming from Mom, Aunt Georgia, even teachers in school. If you violate these shoulds, guilt starts to develop." -

Ms. Bortz hosted a brown bag lun- · cheon on the topic of guilt at Arapahoe Community College last week. Over 95 percent of the audience were women. Bortz believes women experience guilt more often than men.

"There are different expectations in the male role," she said. "Men don't feel guilty go~ng off to work. Women do. Males are told it's o.k. to talce care of yourself. As the first brea~nners, they had to tend to themselves. Men have more of a sense of entitlement."

According to Ms. Bortz, women forfeit their identities for others more than men do. Women are told they have to do it all- career, family, per­sonal relationships. Responsibilities begin to pile one on top of another._She believes guilt is a direct result of responsibility. And any time there is guilt there is residual anger.

During the luncheon Ms. Bortz

divided the audience into age groups (20's through the OO's) and asked people ' from each group to describe any guilt feeling they were experiencing.

Women in their 20' s and 30' s often felt guilt about their children, either('" leaving them with spouses or at day care facilities. Other relationship related themes became apparent -problems with husbands and/ or boyfriends, not having enough time to spend with families, not loving .... parents enough.

Women in the 40 to 50 year-old age groups also tied guilt feelings to per­sonal relationships. One woman felt guilt because she couldn't say no. Another experienced guilt on putting her mother into a nursing home. One -person even experienced guilt for enjoy­ing her lifestyle. Of the handful of men present two or three said they had never experienced any type of guilt.

How can we change our lives so that guilt doesn't overtake us?- Ms. Bortz believes the first step is transforming ~ shoulds into wants.

"A person says, 'I really should clean off my desk.' You can bet they won't do it. lnstead say, 'I want to clean off my B.ed:.~Af thiS point an internal rather than external process takes hold."

People also need to transform the -word "selfish" into a good word.

"Selfish means that once· in a while you let yourself come first."

One member of the audience asked if guilt could ever serve a constructive purpose. • ..

"Guilt does serve some functions," Libby said. "Superego. We learn we'll be punished for example, in society, if we don't follow the rules." 0

Hard Rock Ban Lifted RALEIGH, N.C.(CPS)-Thanks to .

student protest and a new student advisory committee, it's "still rock 'n roll" at North Carolina State University after all.

A three-week-old campus ban on "heavy metal" music was lifted last week when the administration approved a Coliseum Concert Advisory Committee to screen rock music acts, reports committee member Jeff Bender.

The ban followed a Van Halen con-· cert where the young, predominantly non-campus crowd left the university's Reynolds Coliseum strewn with trash, Bender explains.

"The Saturday concert meant there· was no clean-up until Monday" he says. "The administration decided 'We don't want this mess anymore,' and reasoned that heavy metal bands were drawing a young, non-student crowd that left a big mess."

Students immediately labeled the ban "ridiculous" and "discriminatory" and complained they'd be forced to go off-campus for rock concerts.

"The biggest contention was with the unclear terms of the ban," Bender stresses. "There were no set guidelines about what music was banned."

Indeed, Athletic Director Willis Casey originally said he'd ban rock music while allowing the Coliseum to

host acts like Billy Joe!, who Casey apparently didn't see as a rock 'n roll musician.

The adverse student reaction led to meetings between student leaders and university administrators, who proposed the student-run advisory · committee to help make rock bookings.

Committee members include the stu­dent center president, the director of student union activities, the assistant dean of students and Bender, who is editor of the campus newspaper.

"The committee will help screen talent that appears at the Coliseum," explains Richard Farrell, Coliseum business manager. "They'll determine if students want a particular artist on campus.'' .

Coliseum officials will sign "family ' type acts, he str~, and will consult the students only for rock concerts.

"It will be interesting to see on what criteria they judge these groups on," he adds. .

Bender claims the committee is a bet- .. ter solution than dealing with the administrations' s "paranoia of any type of music that appeals to a younger crowd."

"They're not interested in entertain­ment that draws a 15-year-old crowd," he points out. "I understand that. After • all, this is a university." 0

Students Adapt to American SchOols .....

by Kevin Vaughan

I

Every weekday at 11:10 a.m., Som­many ai;id Bo go to class to learn English.

But what is considered second nature to m~ high school juniors is much

.,-uore difficult for Sommany and Bo. English is not their native language.

Both immigrated~to the United States with their families from Southeast Asia

Both are students in the English as a Second Language program at Nor­.thglenn High School. The program, of­fered for all students in Adams County .District 12, gives speakers of other languages the chance to learn English.

The class is taught by Julie Bohlender, and meets every weekday to

").

improve the students' knowledge of the English language. Before this year, Bohlender split her time between Nor­thglenn High School and Thornton High School, but now spends all of her teaching time at Northglenn.

For Sommany, whose family came to America from Laos, and Bo, who im-

. migrated to this country from Vietnam after the communist takeover of 19'75, English presents a special challenge because it is structured much different­ly than the languages of Southeast Asian countries.

Both come from countries which have native languages that are mono­c;yllabic in form. In other words, no

Culture: (Kul'cher) n. 1. A par­ticular form of civilization, especially the beliefs, customs, arts, and institutions of a society at a given time ...

Editor's note: Laat spring Greg Peanon'~ Contemporary lBBUes claa studied the influx of Southeast Asians into the Denver •area. Thia is the aecond of several articles· produced by the produced by the claat

·which we will nin this aemester.

words in Sommany or Bo's native languages contain more than one syllable. In addition, both students' · native languages do not contain nearly as many words as English. For exam­ple, several English words are used to convey the same meaning---'-such as big, large, and giant---and would normally be covered by one word in Southeast Asia.

'1:n one class they teach 40 to 50 people, and they give you numbers. Number one is good-like an A. If there are 1 5 people iJJ. class and I get a 15, then I get an F~" -Bo

"Many words mean the same thing," Sommany said. "In my country, they have one word and very little sound."

But while both agreed that\ learning English was hard, they liked the struc­ture of American schools much better than the structure of schools in their native countries.

"In my country," Sommany said, "they can hit. If you are tardy or you do something wrong, you get hit. If you talk when the teacher is talking, you have t9 stand like this," she explained, putting her small hands on the top of her head and crossing her fingers.

"And the uniforms," Bo interjected, "if you don't wear the uniforms, you get in trouble. And we have to sing the national song every morning."

"But what we are talking about,'~ Sommany said, "is before 1975. But then the commµnists came and you don't have to do that anymore."

Discipline, however, is not the only facet of school life which .varies greatly between Northglenn High School and the schools in Sommany and Bo's native countries. The grading system in American schools is also different than those in Southeast Asian schools.

"In one class," Bo remembered, "they teach 40 or 50 people, and they give you numbers. Nutnber 1 is good-­-like an A. If there are 15 people in class and I get a 15, then I get an F."

In addition to a different system of

grading, Sommany attended a school which was structured totally different than the public school system offered in the United States. She went to a private school, and her family was forced to pay for her education every month.

Also, students in Sommany's homeland do not automati~ally begin school at the age of five the way they do here. The children are put through a physical test and are not allowed to begin their studies until they pass the

. test. "If you can't touch your hair to your

ear," Sommany explained while reaching her right hand across her head to touch the top of her left ear with a lock of her dark brown hair, "then you can not go to school---no matter how old you are."

"If you are eight-years-old and you don't know anything," she continued, "you go to first grade .. . If you want to go to high school, you have to take a test, with other schools, and if you don't pass you have to stay in the class you're in."

And while both students said the structure of their native schools was different than the way American schools are set-up, they agreed that they study basically th~ same subjects here as they did in Southeast Asia.

"In elementary and junior high,"

"If you can't touch your hai_r to your ear then you can not go to school-no matter how old you are."

-Sommany

Sommany said, "I think we study the same things, like history and math."

"We studied the same thing in high . school and if we go to college," Bo said. "But we didn't study the same subjects in 'junior high."

But what was the hardest thing about going to an American school?

"Learning how l:o ride the bus," Bo concluded. "In my country we didn't have cars, and that made it hard to get around."

Students Disagree on Diet Some people who immigrate to

America from other countries have a hard time adjusting to the American way of life.

For two Southeast Asian immigrants who are now learning to speak English, the thought of American food conjurs up very different thoughts.

Both Sommany and Bo came to the United States from Southeast Asia following the communist takeover in 1975.

But while they both came to America from the same region, they have not ad­justed to hot dogs and apple pie the same way.

"I can't eat American food," Bo said. "I have to go to the store and buy my native food, and take it home and cook it."

Sommany, however, is more indif­ferent to the food of the United States.

"I don't like pizza," she said, "but I like Big Mac."

Pat Schroeder's Trying Course of Experience

I by Keith Levise

-Throughout American history, there runs a familiar and troublesome question.

Americans advocate freedom, but what does it mean to be free? For 200 years the matter has been unsettled. Though everyone from the drunken philosopher to the solemn expert has expressed their opinion, America still hasn't reached a consen­sus. Free from what? And free to do what? are questions that continuously arouse and confound us.

Next to freedom, is the question of power. In the U.S. the question traditionally comes down to who controls the governement? By what means? For what ends?

In earlier times, we had the Jeffersonian democrats, mostly farmers, who believed in the strict limitation of government power. Directly opposite were the Aristocrats who promoted a strong, centralized government controlled by an upper class. The Aristocrats believed they and their kind only could be trust~ with power-that common people were too dumb to use it wisely.

The Aristocrats rejected the doctrines of the Enlightenment which guided the philosophy of the Jeffersonians. The Enlightenment held that hiiman bein~ have a natural tendency to make the proper moral and political choices, providing they are not "subject to the inconstant, uncertain, unknown, arbitrary will of another man." The Enlightenment taught by freeing ourselves from govenment-by replacing the power of government with the power of human reason-we could build a better world.

POLITICS .. ....... .

In modern America, the struggle for power continues. Few people on the American political scene have a clear picture of what the struggle involves. One, whose opinion on the matter is worthy of consideration, is Pat Schroeder. ne Congr~oman from Colorado went off to D .C. in 1973 to reason with our government. Like. the majority of our founding fathers, her values harmonize with the doctrines of the Enlightenment.

"Why would you want power" she asks, "except to help other people who are powerless . .. My definition," she says, "is you should have power for what you can give, and their definition is you have power to show what you got." The they she's referring to might be the designer clothes/limousine gang in D.C. who disapprov­ed of Schroeder's Ford Mustang, and, probably, the rest of her common values. Or, she may be referring to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. She's a member of the House Armed Services Committee. "Uh huh," she says, "and it's remarkable I'm not insane- maybe I am," she adds, "but there's one, that's real power, that's really one upsmanship ... " .

"The nuclear arsenal thing is all a power deal," she says. "I've got more nukes than you've got . .. the question is why do you have them? How could you use them? What would you do with them? No one ever answers those questions. It's just here's my chart, here's your chart. I've got ten more than you, nanny nanny nanna .. . and no one ever stops to ask that next question, well why? And what did it cost to do that? Who did you injure to get that? Somebody has been hurt to rear-range those priorities ... " .

The emphasis on nuclear weapons amounts to strategic folly, in Schroeder's opi­nion. "The stuff they buy is crazy," she says, "It's stuff, that if we have to use it-we're dead. And to build that stuff we drain on the other stuff. You drain the conventional weapons force to build nuclear weapons, and it keeps you from hav­ing a buffer ... so the conventional force is way down, and what if someone does attack and you haven't anything to fight back with. It's either surrender or use your nukes." ,

The defense question comes down to priorities, and, in Schroeder's view, our governments priorities are way out of line. She suggests a connection between those priorities and the President. "If you look at Ronald Reagan's entire political career, he's been totally beholden to the defense industry of southern California. They funded him for governor twice, for president, twice, and when he took over, be put a Californian in charge of the defense department, and it's anything you boys want and we'll just squeeze it out of everything else." '

" It's ridiculous! They just cut the women's gym down at the Air Force Academy-and we're spending megabucks, but for women cadets, we can't have gym anymore, 'cause heaven forbid, we've got to buy more B-l's . .. The guys who are funding it (the Reagan Administration) are getting paid back for their invest­ment. It's not defense, it's just a pay back. And even the guys in the 5ervice are beginning to see that, and, to their credit, are starting to say Holy Mackerel, this is terrible!"

"The President asks everybody, do you feel better off than you did four years agoP And my question is, now that we've spent all this tax

_money, do you feel more secure?"

"We can all say this is wonderful and idealistic, but every two years, having to raise another hundred bucks from your friend's wine and cheese party is a pain. " ··

'~ e 'Pf"OfeBB one set of values and then we wink and say help yourself. And to a lot of people, that's ter­

. rifle-they'll be out playing in that park ... The thing is to e%pose them."

The question of military priorities is indeed beginning to surface in unusual though appropriate places. "I had the Jacksonville Naval Air Station phone and say we want to make you our patriot of the year. (Do you know who you have on the phone? Is this a joke? ah mean ... )So I finally decided, o.k., this is too good to pass up, I'm gonna figure this out. So I went down there, I looked at their prior

' patriots of the year, and they didn't look anything like me, thank· you very much. There's admirals, generals, chairmen of the ASC, roaring hawks-and here I am.

And I finally said to them, aren't you afraid they're gonna call out air strikes and wipe out your base? Why me? What have you done? And they said, we realize it's really gutsy, of course everybody's called here and chew~ us out ... but you've been out there talking about what families go through in the military ... (ar ~most

.. ~en are afraid to mention it for fear somebody will think they have lace 011 their jockey shorts, .. I mean, you know, so families get abused, so what? So this and that happened, so what?)

They said, You've really been hanging in there for families, which is terribly important-~e way the military is run today, which is awful-moving everbody every 18 months-and you've also been talking about common sense things like, why aren't we flying this stuff when we can get spare parts? And they said, we're

-1. gonna take you out on the runway and we're gonna show you hundreds of airplanes that we could have in the air tomorrow if we could go to K-Mart and buy a few parts. We're not allowed to do it ... they're gonna sit there for two years ...

And meanwhile, we'll bleed the country to build things like the B-lB, which just fell out of the air again, when we've got all these things that coul.d be flying for minibucks ... what's going on? It's absolute insanity ... "

r Schroeder conveys an easy, natural concern for military affairs. Recent events like the poverty-depressed teenager who hung himself at -a California base demonstrate to her the need for the human side of military reform-the boy's death disturbed many. "Let me tell you," said Schroeder, "when you know what we spend for military housing, for moving people and everything else, there's no reason for that ... it's scandalous."

A few weeks ago, a young cadet was killed in a hazing "accident" in Texas. ~ "And they're saying Oh Well, listen, what's the matter with that? Well, they

knocked him down, they kicked him, they beat him, they propped him up, they made him run, he fell down, and they beat him again. That's wrong, wrong, and they know it-that's absolute crap! People will deny for a long time that it's going on, but all of a sudden. it starts to surface ... "

Schroeder is doing her part to see that "it" surfaces-expediently. The problei.n, p by Schroeder's estimation, is the traditional male mindset wq.ich leaves men cold

as fish. She instigated something called "Fatherhood Hearings." She even roped the Chief of Staff of the Army into testifying. "He didn't want to be there," she explained, "He was miserable."

"We had testimony from men that were just incredible ... people from Harvard Medical School and others who really started getting into this-the isolation of the male from any kind of a caring, feeling situtation. It's not cool, and they sum-

. med it up by saying If we could only tell men to be the father they wish they had and not the man 80clety told them they should be. All of a sudden 1 thought, that's the difference-I am a woman and people tell me I should be the mother I'm sup­posed to be and I have no proJ:>lem with that. But if you're a male being told to be a man, and to be a man is being defined as being powerful, a marine, or whatever ... Deep down they may resent the fact that they didn't have a father

., either. You need to be a father, but you go right on being a man, because that's what society reinforces for you ... "

STAR WARS ........ ..

A determined opponent of the Star Wars scenario, Schroeder would like to see the same technology re-directed to communications-a positive application. "If

~ you trace the history of humanity," she explains, "you identify with different sized groups. First, you identify with yourself, then people identify with family, and then they identify with the tribe, then a city, or state, then a nation. And the real trick to survive now is to identify with the planet. And the exciting thing about that is the technology is available to make people identify with the planet." The problem, Schroeder points out, is government interference. "We·have to break through the two countries. You can have cable television, satellite communica-

< tions, graphic earth coverage. Ted Turner's in Moscow trying to negotiate those

kinds of things ... Our governments are terrified of us communicating directly as human beings to human beings, without allowing them to tell us what their, or our leaders said."

"We have to show that there is a way out of it. Take the same technology and put it to positive uses rather than negative. We should be able to survey over there (in Rtmia). They should be able to survey over here and watch what's going on ... 1£ doctors want to talk, they should be able to talk right to doctors without having to go through their governments. We should be able to use it fpr any kind of'communication-if anyone wants to talk." -

Schroeder warns that this new age of communication may end prematurely. "The minute you have killer satellites, it's over, the minute you militarize, it's done. The French will be going into space with the Russians next year for Halley's Comet. The Europeans have put together a Space Consortium for peaceful uses-The Japanese have done it. What are we d:oing? We're gonna have Star Wars, Look! Here we come ... terrific."

Though troubled by the state of the Union, Schroeder believes in a bright future. The process of working forca better wo~l<!, ~f liberating people from the negative, is a long and frustrating ordeal. She suggests that help from Higher Education in shaping a positive course for our planet certainly will be appreciated. The reason people haven't changed the status quo, according to

Schroeder, is "because they haven't been good at defining the alternatives. Universities should be sponsoring seminars and papers so students can hear there are other things you can do with this technology ... " · _

"In other words, the plan here is to start being articulate. Part of the reason it's hard to get articulated is the nukes group is making money in Star Wars, and _they're busy articulating their side ... and in the other group there's nobody immediately making money ... That's where you expect your educational institu­tions and your foundations to do a better job, and they're not doing it. I think they've been a disappointment. On the campus-that's where things have really got to get going, or we're not going to break out in the stretch ... "

We may or may not break out in the stretch. The enlightenment may yet save us, or perhaps we'll perish. Schroeder understands our fragile condition and she has a practical suggestion for toughening up the fight.

"We've changed our lifestyles so rapidly," she says, "people are working, going to school, doing fourteen things. It's taking them much more to survive.It's not that they're not interested. When they get home, the last thing they want to do is go to a meeting.

But you put it on television and they'll go home, have a beer and watch it. Get it' on TV! I hate to say it, we're a TV society. Universities should have gotten into television, they should have gotten into cable-that's where they should be. The right wing has moved into cable like you can't believe. The Jerry Falwells of the world understand it.

It's very interesting that those of us who think we're so with it don't have as good an understanding of where America's moved. Jerry Falwell-he understands people. They don't come to Jerry's church-but they watch him. I've said to mainstream religions, the Jews and the Christians, and everybody yelling about the right wingers-so why don't you get a cable? (I) say to Harvard, where are you on cable? Why aren't you guys putting this stuff in there? 0

·Pat Schroeder's Dream

"If I could do a TV commercial, for the presidency, I would have the Marlboro Man-the most marlboro of the marlboro men-on a horse, and he would say something like "We cowboys used to kill a lot of people out here in range wars-the cattle, everything. We cowboys fihally figured out it wasn't very smart. We negotiated things. We don't particularly like our neighbors, but we built -fences and we haven't been killing people-and that cowboyin the white house hasn't figured it out yet. And the problem is the neighbor he's fighting doesn't have guns, he's got nukes!" (Take it to him in the John Wayne manner. My problem, as a woman, is it's hard for me to take it to him in that manner because people look at you and play the politics of assumption-Oh Well, it's a woman they don't like war, what do they know?)

·New Alhtim Tribute To Thelonius Monk Mark Singer Special to the Metropolitan

Thelonious Monk, a glorified piano player right? Yet what a piano player! Orrin Keepnews, producer of much of Thelonious Monk's music; said after Monk's death in 1982, "Most people found it easier to dismiss him as wierd and unskillfull than to try hard enough to understand. Thelonious was unques­tionably a true eccentric, and he was certainly misunderstood for many years

by musicians and almost all of the critics; but he always knew exactly who he was and what he was doing."

Keepnews' son, Peter, became a significant jazz producer in his own right, and in 1982 conceived of an album tribute which would feature artists from not only a jazz orientation, but from pop and classical backgrounds as well.

That's the Way I Feel Now. Jazz musi­cians were the only people ever invited to pay tribute to Monk. Yet Keepnews understood that his influence must have extended far beyond j~.

Peter Keepnews emphasizes Monk's tremendous ,.influence in his album notes for this collaboration entitled,

A diverse, seemingly oddball cast of characters expressed interest over the last two years in contributing to this album project, .which turns out to be more of a celebration of Monk's work

, than a mere tribute to him. That's The Way I Feel Now consists

ed and interpreted by various artists, ranging from the Bebop end of the spectrum (Charlie Rouse, Johnny Grif­fin, John Ore, Elvin Jones) to contem­porary crazies like Was/Not Was. 'Ihere are a host of other interesting luminaries from the musical kingdom on this album including Joe Jackson, Donald Fagen, Peter Frampton, Chris Spedding, Todd Rundgren, Dr. John, and "The Night Tripper" -Mac Rebennack.

Coincidentally, there are two guys from the David Letterman Show on here, guitarists extraordinaire Steve Khan and Hiram Bullock.

Truly a celebration. The variety of interpretations is something to marvel at, and the musicianship is often quite good. For example, Joe Jackson con­tributes an extravagant and beautifully melancholy live orchestral arrange­ment of Monk's oft interpreted ballad, "Round Midnight". Although his piece is different from Monk's own arrange­ment, Jackson's use of strings is quite apt. It was probably written as a love song after all, and it soun~ just like it should under Jackson's direction.

James Chance of James White and the Blacks is on the album with his experimental use of 'Monkisms" in a jazz-punk-ska context. Realize that not many pop musicians have claimed Monk as an influence, much less somebody they'd even heard of. The inclusion of rock types like Frampton, Fagen, and Rundgren underscores Keepnews' transcendent intentions.

It is very interesting to hear someone doing Monk on a synthesizer. Todd Rundgren's electric rendering of "Four In One" results in a pastiche effect which mistakes Monk for fractured and anarchic where he is merely idiosyn-cratic. ,

Heady stuff indeed, but if it weren t for Thelonious Monk the face of today's music_ would be very much different. The cross fertilization of stylistic think­ing on this . project is fascinating, 'and Monk's musical philosophy would have had him grinning at the notion he was just-a glorified piano player. He was, in fact, a brilliant, poetic, compassionate piano player. 0

Excuuuuse meeee Steve Martin but I believe you've cracked that joke before. Years ago in fact . Amazingly, it's still working.

Martin's latest farce, All Of Me, con-.. tains one scene where he uses that

famous line just once. It was a little more subtle, and less stretched out, but yet still funny. This whole film is funny. It started off slowly and kicked into gear once the absurd plot was . established. · ·

The plot somehow lands Lily Tomlin in control of Steve's right side. When our hero attempts the great lovemaking scene the Tomlin half throws a wrench into the works, so to speak. Mass chaos ensues and the laughs continue as they

.. do throughout most of this film. The zany characters are what makes

All Of Me worthwhile. In addition to Tomlin-who continues the long tradi­tion of ugly, yet hilarious comediennes (Shelly Winters, Joan Rivers, Milton Berle in drag, Phyllis Diller)-there are relative unknowns who give excellent performances. The most memorable of which was Steve's girlfriend leaving him. The gorgeous Madolyn Smith tells Steve spitefully that she had faked all their lovemaking, at which point she starts moaning and

' panting up to a climactic scream and then very calmly asks, "Sound familiar?"

The mystic Prahka Lasa (played by Richard Libertini) is another central figure. He's the cause of all the trouble

and has this ridiculously incognizant smile on his face the whole time.

All Of Me bears a lot of similarities to previous Steve Martin films, surpassing all of them except maybe The Jerk. There's the schizophrenia of The Man With Two Brains; and Steve's best friend in this film is a dog as it was in last year's flop, The Lonely Guy.

The plot of All Of Me is what gives Martin the opportunity to shine so well. Having a rich woman inside of his body accentuates the inherent differences between men and women, though any philosophical· points would be ,pure

conjecture. Another esoteric conjecture would concern the influence of money. Tomlin's character, Edwina Cutwater, has devised a way to "take it with her", and there are certain points made deal­ing with the "live for today" ethic.

Overall, the 'film is entirely too ridiculous to have any kind of serious theme. Needl~ to say, the show wouldn't have been nearly as funny had the scheme worked according to plan.

The film was based on a novel by Ed Davis, adapted by Henry Olnek, and

' ·written by Phil Alden Robinson. But it

is the direction of Carl Reiner that leaves the identifiable fingerprint. Reiner has Steve practically spastic as his left side is normal while the ri_g_ht side is limp-wristed and flailing.

All Of Me is pure fun, surprisingly suitable for a wide range of ages. Steve Martin is one of today's premier comics and this time he's in a film that does him justice.

To :Rock Boulder by Chris Deutsch Reporter, The Metropolitan

The Thompson Twins, all three of them, joined with Berlin; the con­troversial high energy California sextet for a great rock 'n' roll double bill in Boulder at the Events Center last week.

For both bands, it was a return by popular demand. Each is riding on the success of a gold ablum and each was in Colorado earlier this summer. The Twins played in Boulder, while Berlin

doubled up with Stevie Ray Vaughan !!-t Red_ Rocks.

Opening up the sh~w was Berlin. One look at lead vocalist Terry Nunn, and a listen to singles like their favorite "Sex (I'm a)" and you'll understand the commotion. Far from being a one song band, Berlin showed off hits like "No More Words" off this years "Love Life" album and a torrid version of "The Metro" from last years debut E.P.

When Berlin first came out, the most memorable thing outside of Terry

Nunn's singing, and some catchy songs; was the obvious overkill on the syn­thesizers and the drum machine. Hap­pily computer rock is no longer an apt description. Bassist John Crawford and guitarist Dave Diamond are still there, backed up this time with some real live musicians. The difference is impressive; the sound is now very guitar oriented and everything has a lot more bite.

While Berlin was getting away from . their electronic past, The Thompson Twins mixed sta~e of the art high tech

with new wave diversity. Congo drums and xylophones were

juxtaposed with synthesizers and elec­tronic percussion, a state of the art lighting and a great sound system. Along with that was the Twins art deco clothing which combined for a truly unusual show.

Most visible is Alanna Currie who wears a Mohawk, covered by a very big cap, and has a tattoo on her face. She • alternated between xylophone and various percussion pieces. Then there's the Rastafarian hair and looks of Joe Leeway on Congas and Synthesizers. Lead vocalist Tom Bailey sticks with a fairly normal baggy suit, and an almost waist length pony tail.

The band's gold selling album "Into The Gap" has had a suprisingly minimal amount of exposure; with the exception of the single "Hold Me Now." The Twins played that of course, as well as their last big tune "Doctor, Doctor." Even on less familiar material -though, like "You Take Me Up," they had the crowd singing along; not a bad accomplishment, and a sign that they'll be around for quite a while. _ D

Union Station RockrWith ] azz by D.J. Owens Entertainment Editor, The Metropolitan

In the August 23 issue of Scene Joanne DrallS.5 speaks poetically of the

- Cleveland music world: "The despera­tion is common to Cleveland's original bands. The ambition is circuit-wide and irrepressible. The goal is, in its most commonly phrased form, 'to get out of here.' "

Funny, it sounds so much like ,.. Denver. Exchange "to get to L.A." for

"to get out of here" and I believe we've hit the nail on the head.

Last weekend (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday!) the Union Station Restaurant, Westword, Michelob, and KKBB all got together to sponsor Jazz

- Fest '84, which was held to benefit Historic Denver.

Elthopia Fuller Of Fuller Sound

A seemingly strange place for a jazz festival at first look. the Union Station has? in the past, hosted jazzers Lanny Garrett and Dizzy Gillespie. If the entire crowd doesn't just pack up and move to the coast, they may find Denver quite a volatile spot for original music one of these days.

Of course many of the FIFTEEN jazz groups that played at the festival were doing mostly covers; the exceptions (most notably Vic Cionetti and Images) did exist.

A lot of moving around with these folks too. Just two weeks ago Rob Mullins insisted that Laura Newman was a regular part of his line-up. What's she in this Rucker-Newman Quartet for?

Rob (another artist with numerous originals in his repertoire) is one of those fervently seeking greener pastures. Not that Denver isn't good-and getting better fast-but I'd bet a national record deal will come

Conception's Lovely Teresa Carroll

pretty soon and we won't be seeing Mr. Mullins on a regular basis anymore.

A few of the acts who played at the festival aren't "natives" by any means. Akbar Depriest, The Billy Tolles Jazz Express, and the Joe Bonner Quartet all made it to Mile High America the long way. How long they plan to remain is the question. ·

Union Station intends on continuing to sponsor live jazz music, and it's doubtful! there'll be much Rock'n'Roll on this side of downtown in the near

future. Their clientele is late twenties on upward and characterized by a high level of sophistication.

MT. Denver Jazz-Dick Gib­son-graciously opened up Saturday night's activities, leaving the over­whelming impression that the local jazz scene is definitely the largest, yet most elite, clique in the state. But there is also the tremendous sense that the whole circuit is on the verge of geometric expansion.

Still, can Denver ever hope to match

th~ level of reputation seen by New Orleans, Chicago, or St. Louis? Pro­bably not. Denver jazz has no identify­ing trademarks. The diversity of everyone's backgrounds and the tran­sient nature of this area make the music nondescript as a collective whole, but even then, diverse and colorful.

Two final notes. First of all, haven't you guys ever heard of Jill Sobule??? And secondly, a general plea to all local musicians: Stay! L.A.'s not all it's cracked up to be. 0

"The potential (of the basketball pro- . gram) is tremendous, if the people can get behind it," Scha.efer said. He added that the potential revenue the college and all of intercollegiate athletics can obtain is tremendous.

Schaefer said it is important that the program gets off the ground in the first .. year because many businesses interested in suporting the Roadrunners have a "wait and see" attitude.

Schaefer, a member of the organiza­tional committee for the NCAA Western Regional basketball playoffs next March as well as a member of the committee for the 1990 fina,1.-four games, both of which to be held in Denver, said he is concerned that MSC gets "?_ehind. the program. "The time is now. hes8.ld.

The basketball program is now on its way. The promise about playing in the Denver Auditorium Arena is now reali­ty. Intercollegiate athletics formally announced last week the 14 scheduled home games will be played in the downtown Arena.

The Arena, which holds more than . 7,000 people, has a long noted basket­ball tradition as it was the home of the previous ABA Denver Rockets as well as the Nuggets their first year in the NBA before McNichols was built. The Arena is also noted or its role as the sight of the state high school basketball playoffs

Dobbs expressed how the basketball program has the potential to offer a great deal to the Auraria students.

"We're probably the only school in the state that doesn't have a homecom­ing," said Dobbs. "We could make one of the basketball games a home-coming with possibly a dance afterwards in the PER gym."

Dobbs said that 80 percent of Metro students fall in the 17-20 .age group, equally the same around the state. "We have obligation to this group," he said.

All students will be admitted free to the games with Auraria 1.D.

The players and coaches will also be working with charity organizations this year such as the Ronald McDonald Ifouse, a home for terminally ill children and their parents.

Ligouri said when he was coaching in Iowa, his players worked directly with the player at the home there. ~e said that each player had a favorite child that they would have attend the games as their special guest. Ligouri said he hopes to establish the same type of relationship here at Metro. __ . 0

Second Hat )

.... Amy Shute scored the sec0nd hat­trick of the season for the women's soc­cer team during a 4-0 shutout against · the University of Wyoming Sunday in Laramie.

Halfback Char Lefholz scored Metro's first goal of the game with a beautiful air shot from left field into

the upper right comer e£ the gpal. Later in the first half, Shute, who

plays forward, faced the Wyoming goalkeeper one-on-one and sueees.miTiy ~hot the ball past her. At halftime the Roadrunners led the Cowboys 2-0.

Men Fighting ---Tough Schedule

The men's soccer team is facing some of the toughest teams in the history of the program this season.

This week, the Roadrunners fought .... to a 0-0 double-overtime tie against the

University of New Mexico, a NCAA Division I school.

"They dominated the game early,'' said head coach Harry Temmer. He added that MSC progressed well in the game and by the end, the Roadrunners w~re contro~ng the game.

This season, Metro will be facing Colorado College, a club that was in the NAIA Division II playoffs . last season. MSC will also see action in

,.October against Seattle Pacific, who captured the Division II championship last season.

The road ahead looks even tou~er for MSC, as they will travel to Canada w p1ay North British Columbia who has lead the Canadian leagues in the

'years past.

"We're playing good soccer and we're playing a tough schedule," Temmer said.

This week, Metro will be at home against Colorado School of Mines

~ Saturday at 2 p.m. before traveling to Colorado Springs to take on the Air Force Academy next Wednesday at 4p.m.. .D

,

Trick Leads MSC On already-physical Cowboys became even more aggressive and by the end of the game both teams had been called for numerous penalties, but no one was injured.

Two more times in the second half

Shute conquered the Wyoming goalkeeper in one-on-one situations after outrunning the opposing fullbacks.

This is the seoond hat-trick for the team this season. The first was mastered by ~oiward Rory Ogg in a game against the University of Col­orado a week and a half ago.

The women ended the wind-blown match with a 4-0 victory. However, the game was not won by offense alone. Goalkeeper Dani Denight made several extraordinary saves to keep MSC ahead.

The lady Roadrunners lost to Col­orado College 2-0 in a tough, defensive battle last Thursday in Colorado Springs.

At home this afternoon MSC will take on Denver University at 3:00. The women will play at home Saturday against the University of Northern Col- . orado. ·

W oillen Split With Alaska The women's volleyball team went 2-3 last weekend bringing it's overall record to 8-5 for the season.

The women took on the University of Alaska and Fairbanks both Friday and Saturday.

MSC played well against Fairbanks both days, winning 10-5, 8-15, 15-11, 15-2, and 17-15 in a thriller Friday. Metro took ·saturday's game as well 15-11, 15-3, 13-15 and 15-5.

However, Metro did not play as well against the Anchorage club. Friday MSC took the first two games of the set • 17 -15, 15-11 before dropp~g the next

three 15-10, 15-3 and 15-12. Saturday afternoon the team drop­

ped it's second match of the weekend to Anchorage in three straight games 15-13, 15-4, 15-11.

Earlier in the week, the women dropped a game to a very tough Air Force team 15-7, 15-8and15-6 in Col-orado Springs. ·
