Tru·stees select /

Macintyre _ ... by Emerson Schwartzkqpf

By a unanimous vote yesterday, the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges in Colorado selected Dr. Donald J. Macintyre as the new president of

'4,Jetropolitan State College (MSC) effective June l, 1979.

The selection came at " the end of a seven-month search by a combined force of Trustees and MSC staff, faculty, and students. .·

Macintyre, if he ae<cepts the position, "' would become the third president in MSC

history, following Dr. I(enneth Phillips (1965-71) and Dr. James D. Palmer (1971-n). Trustee President Philip Winslow indicated Macintyre would probably accept the position.

Macintyre will take over the presidency

from Dr. Richard Netzel, who has served as acting MSC president since August 1978.

Trustee Irene Sweetkind, chair of the Trustee's selection committee, moved to appoint Macintyre, with Trustee Gladys Foster seconding the. motion. Two Trustees- John Eddy and George Woodard- cast their votes in abstensia for Macintyre.

Sweetkind's motion stipulated an "understanding" Macintyre would be at MSC periodically before June I for "an effective and smooth transition in administrative leade'rship. The motion also set Maclntyre's annual salary at $53,000, plus other benefits.

Macintyre is currently Vice President for Academic Affairs at the University of San Francisco (USF). Before his selection in

Hews Fowler changes colleges

and Christmas trees The long-promised bill to reorganize

Colorado higher education by State Senator Hugh Fowler (R-Littleton) finally appeared late last week - defining both a new educational governance structure and Chl'ist mas trees~

Senate Bill (SB) 523. sponsored by Fowler. Representa tive Tom Tancredo (R-Arvada). and other members of the Senate and House Education Committees. creates l 6 new governing boards. a new deparrment of post-secondary education. and other various laws.

The Cniversity of Colorado-Denver (UC'D) and Metropolitan State College (MSC) would merge under SB 5 23 to create the ''Metropolitan University of Colorado,. (MUC). MUC's admissions standards would be the upper half of an applicant's high school graduation class - with some except ions.

MUC' would be governed by a seven-member. governor-appointed board of trustees - the only appointed group out of the planned 20 boards under the SB 523 structure.

~lUC would . under SB 523. become the Auraria "landlord." abolishing the Auraria Board of Directors.

The other three colleges in the Consortium Svstem - Adams State. Western State. and Mesa - would be joined by Fort Lewis College in the "University of Western Colorado." -Each school would have an

"executive board" with a larger board of trustees for the complete "university." -

The Board of Regents would keep the Boulder campus and the Medical Center w1der SB 523. but the Colorado Springs campus would have its own, separate governing board.

Ironically. the Colorado Springs campus would retain its "Unive·rsity of Colorado" designation - despite the severing of governing I ies with the Regents.

Student members on alJ present boards excluding rile Regents - created by legislation in 1975 - apparently would be eliminated under SB 523.

Tancredo's support of SB 523 - which includes the MSC-UCD merger - seemingly contradicts his denial of support for the merger (The Metropolitan, Feb . 28) .

At that time, however, Tancredo said he supported "90 percent" of Fowler's proposed legislation - SB 523.

TI1e comprehensive, 323-page legislation also includes statutes -on the State Historical Society, the State Forest Service, and the exact legal definition of a Christmas tree.

SB 523 would amend Section 27 , Article 4 of Title 18 to provide a "Part 7- Christmas and Evergreen Boughs."

Under 18-4-701, subsection (1) would define a Christmas tree as "any species of coniferous tree severed from the stump and cut for the purpose of being used as a Christmas tree."

JBC Reverses · Auraria ':Po<sition· The Joint Budget Committee (JBC)

backed off Tuesday from extensively cutt ing Colorado's higher education funding in next year's state budg'et.

As reported in the Rocky Mountain News, the committee moved to withdraw recommended cuts-via further "caps" on enrollment - at Colorado State University (CSU) and the University of Colorado-Boulder (UCB).

The JBC also dropped - by a 6-0 vote - its proposal to transfer lower division courses from the University of Coforado-Denver (UCD) to Metropolitan State College (MSC) on the Auraria campus.

However, the JBC voted to add a footnote to the "long" (state appropriations) bill, directing the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE) to study the alleged duplications of courses at UCD and

MSC. The footnote. also asking for CCHE

recommendations concerning Auraria, is similar to House Bill (HB) 1498, sponsored by State Represenative Tom Tancredo (R-Arvada).

HB 1498 would place Auraria unde~ "sunset" legislation, asking the CCHE to develop a recommendation on Auraria by 1981. .

A "compromise" on higher edµcation funding, announced March 27, asked for the CCHE recommendation by January 1980.

The "compromise," signed by Governor• Richard Lamm, members of the JBC, Rep. Tancredo, CCHE Executive Director Lee Kershner, and State Senator Hugh Fowler, also asked all state institutions to "actively participate" in the legislature's review of higher education.

'MEChA, HEW hqve-rr ·misunderstOnding '' A misunderstanding between a federal

agency and a Metropolitan State College , Q.1SC) student organization placed the financial stability of a student conference at Auraria this week in question.

Debora Montoya, chairperson of MSC's El Movimiento Estudiantil Chlcano de Aztlan (MECHA), said Tuesday the student Chicano group is short of funds for its

_ )lational ChicanoConference-being held April 5-8-partly due to a lack of funds from the Department of Health, Education and Welfare(HEW).

HEW, Montoya said, indicated federal funds would be available for the national conference since February - but the federal ;gency reversed its position Hus week.

John Runkle, HEW Regional Commissioner for Educational Programs, said, however, federal funds were never promised-only "help."

Both Montoya and Runkle agree MECHA's first contact with HEW came through Alex Vigil, HEW Coordinator for

/Hispanic Affairs. Vigil approached Runkle with a proposal in February for funding the MECHA conference.

However, Montoya's and Runkle's stories then begin to differ.

Moptoya said MECHA understood federal monies were available - "They just had to ,iCentify the funds." Montoya said Runkle · failed to find funds during a visit to Washington, D.C., but might find some other funds in HEW.

MECHA then heard nothing from HEW, Montoya said, so the group "tried to put_ some pressure" on Runkle by contacting the

.-rri~edia. Montoya said KMGH-TV finally contacted Runkle about the HEW funding.

ln a meeting Monday morning, Montoya said Runkle indicated there were no federal funds available, and added MECHA "shouldn't have a conference if they didn't have the funds."

Montoya stated Runkle also said MECHA, -f:y going to the media, had spoiled chances for other Chicano groups for funding.

Runkle said Vigil approached him with ·the MECHA proposal in February, asking if any funds were available. Runkle said he knew of no Office of Education program to fund the conference, but he would try to ~)lelp out."

Runkle- said he then went to Washington, where he talked to some Chicano friends about funding. No one in Washington knew of any available funds, Runkle said, but he received a suggestion for the MECHA conference to join with another, ~derally-funded Chicano conference in

\

Dallas, Texas. Runkle said he was informed there was

"no way" for the . conference to meet in Dallas.

Runkle said he agreed to help MEGIA "only on a personal interest- not a commitment." He added Montoya misunderstood his interest, taking it as a commitment of federal funds . . . creating an "awkward position."

Trustees permit bargaining

sort of The Trustees of the Consortium of the

State Colleges in Colorado decided March 30 to permit Consortium faculty to vote on collective bargaining rights - whenever the state legislature says OK.

The Trustees accepted a resolution last Friday by Board member M. Edmund Vallejo to basically adopt the recommendations of the Trustee Task Force on Collective Bargain.ing concerning the four Consortium colleges: Adams Sta1e, Mesa, Metropolitan State, and Western State.

Under the resolution, Consortium faculty members would have the right to hold a referendum on collective bargaining rights -the rights to negotiate contracts for all

The misunderstanding also caused Runkle to "become hesitant to help" other programs like the MECHA conference.

"When the next person comes in the door and asks for help," Runkle said, "you have to ask for the context of the word 'help.'"

Montoya said the conference does have some funds - MSC student government contributed $200, some $3 registrations were prepaid, and small donations h~ ve been

accepted. About $200, Montoya said, is still needed

to cover · accomodations for conference entertainers and some out-of-state participants.

Over 100 students from around the country are registered for the conference, Montoya said.

Editorial A Mi,ssed Opportunity ......-------,, by Sal Ruibal .

We blew it . Metropolitan State College selected its

new president this week. but due to administrative bungling. we missed a rare opport tmity to hire a leader whose qualifications exceed those of all candidates combined. Reliable sources within the MSC Secret Inner Cirde (SIC) have informed me an application was received from no11e other than ldi Amin Dada. who at this time may be the former ruler of Uganda.

According to my sources. Amin 's application was lost somewhere in the bureaucratic anarchy at MSC and was not found until after the final decision had been niade. This is hard to believe, as his application and resume were carved onto the back of a11 elderly British gentleman.

Although a new president has been tentatively selected, the Trustees of the Consortium should hold off awhile and try to make a deal with Antin. There is no man alive who is better equipped to deal with the Joint Budget Committee (JBC) than Amin.

His record in Uganda proves that: in 1965, Uganda U. had a total budget of one million dollars and an enrollment of 5000. Today, UU can boast of a fifty miUion dollar budget and an enrollment of 12. The ratio is incredible.

A.min was instrumental in founding the ' School of Modern Fascist Political A.rt at

!JU, and personally solicited massive donations for the establishment of the coveted Goebbles Chair of Journalism. His doctoral thesis at UU on the political effects of syphillis is a classic in the field.

Letters Editor:

As a University of Colorado at Denver (UCD) graduate student, may I suggest that all of vou citizens talk to vour 12 state legislators engaged in education (Senators Bishop. Gallagher. Groff. Meiklejohn: Repre­sentatives Faatz. Hume, Knox, Kopel) about Sen. Hugh Fowler's "Educational Merger" bill. and the latest Joint Budget Committee (JBC) recommendations. You can obtain a directory of the state ·s 100 legislators at the Capitol . Perhaps many of use makt! the mistake of conferring only with our own senator and representative - I have found that dozens of legislators throughout the state are very happy to talk to us voters on a variety o( legislation with which they and we are concerned. It seems apparent to me that most legislators work hard for their S 12 ,000 annual remuneration in Colorado. State legislators elsewhere make a great deal more money.

As for Sen. Fowler's. bill: If we can find nine (I suggest this number) Denver-area board members for the proposed merged (UCD-Merro) Metropolitan University of Colorado ("·MUC"), who can better govern · ·MUC · from the Denver area than the Board of Regents now governs UCD - that would seem in order.

May I suggest that the "Mayor of UCD" (and eventually MUC) Byron Johnson , distinguilihed educator and government official. a member of the present University Board of Regen ts. who has represented UCD so well during tl1e recent JBC and other educational crises. be ~me (Democrat) member of the Denver Board. and may I suggest that you readers write in your recommendations for three Independents three Republicans. & 2 other Democrat members

May I suggest that the legislature might ammend Sen . Fowler's bill to recognize that many students want and need education. even those who may not be in the top half of their high school classes.

I have been told that a UCD education and diploma is superior to that from \1etro. but l understand in my field - Political Science and Communications - l can get more practical courses and work at Metro. working on local government problems that I do at CCD in oftentimes theoretical. impractical courses.

~laybe I'd rather switch (to Metro and/o r ··\IL'C") than fight (for more relevant Academic Freedom at CCD~).

Sincerely, JJ Albi

With all this talk about mergers, budget cuts, and parking rate increases there has been very little talk about anything constructive going on at Auraria. Therefore I wish to discuss something else completely devoid of doom. I propose that Metropolitan State College get a fQotball team. This would be perfect .to gaiq a cohesive spirit at this college. We could invite teams like Notre Dame, Penn State, Oklahoma and Ohio State to draw big crowds, and most of all make money! We could even have an invitational football bowl for the next to the best teams, and call it the Tivoli Bowl. Maybe in the short future we could gajn support from NBC and get our bowl on TV. I know there may be one flaw in this plan, the teams we invite might not recognize our team as a11· official collegiate team, but this could work _ in our favor. If no one shows up to our challenges, we would win! If we win every game then we could claim national championship, just like every other undefeated team in the college football · scene. And if Metro has an undefeated football team that are national champions, what legislator in his or her right mind is going to suggest budget cuts? What would Howard Cosell say about Senator Fowler's merger? We could get Woody Hays to coach the team and he could punch out any reporters that badmouth Metro. And yes , UCD students could be eligible for the team. We could charge outrageous prices for parking for the games and that would take care of the parking problem. Now see, if you think hard enough you can solve anything.

On 3/29/79, a student lost consciousness on the steps outside of the Auraria Book Store. As a few onlookers were in the process of reviving him, another bystander was dispatched to summoq aid from Metro Student Health service. When the receptionist was informed that there was a seriously ill student down in the hallway who was in immediate danger, she replied that nothing could be done for him till ·'Public Safety could be ailed to assess the situation.·

At that point the nurse from CCD-A Health Service came out of the office and ' responded to the need immediately. It was later discovered that the student was definitely in need of professional emergency care that was provided to him by the CCD office: no questions asked.

I realize that rules are made to be followed, but when lives are involved I don't feel that any rules that are not in these best

interests should stand. Unless you are able to walk into the MHS office and produce a a · valid I .D. card you are prohibited from soliciting their .aid. My question is this:' Who needs their aid at this point?"

I am calling for any students who have had to deal with this Catch-22 to please come forward now and help change this dangerous policy before ifs too late .

TI1e UCD student body needs to pull its head (not to mention its institutional ego) out of the sand. What tangible good is a liberal arts degree? Even Masters in liberal arts don't have jobs. A recent survey of University professors showed that 80 percent felt that higher education did no good at all in preparing students for the outside world. And yet whenever I go to my Philosophy class, my professor always got some inspiring message to urge the student to fight t-o save deal 'ole UCD. Think about it students! What does a Liberal arts degree from UCD offer you? Employers don't care if you've got a diploma. Today job experience is a much more valuable asset than a college degree. What we need is not a four-year patent formula for success what we need is on-the-job training.

r feel the students ~re being incited to a.1 irrational action that is against their long-run best interests My professors are desperately clinging to their old ways of doing things (fully knowledgable of their outdateedness) just to keep their jobs Who's really pulling the wool over whose eyes? What will it be like when you graduate and find your diploma, UCD or not, worthless? Professors who for so long have jumped at any opportunity to criticize an outdated ideaology, are now victims of their own criticism. Wake up students! If the Joint Budget Committee proposal fails to pass who really stands to lose?

Mark Hooper Editor:

I would like this opportunity to ask you a small favor, but first let me introduce myself. My name is Eddie Henigman and I am presently incarcerated at the Clinton Correctional Facility located in Dannemora , N.Y.

Due to these circumstances the people I knew best and loved most chose to adhere to the old saying "out of sight, out of mind" thus making my existence here very Lonely and meaningless. In order to alleviate the

. feeling of emptiness I was wondering if you would publish this letter so that I might be able to reach the sincere and open-minded altruists I know are out there.

I can only add that aside from my age (23)

Amin's experience in the delicate field of administrative merger is awesome. After many years of dedicated work, Amin has engineered a merger between his country and the Tanzanian armed forces. Bringing Auraria together may prove a bit more difficult, but l really feel that he's the best man for the job.

Sources close to Amin indicate the monarch will accept the MSC job if offered. When asked why he wanted the po.sition, Amin reportedly said, "J couldn't pass the"" residency requirements for Mayor."

.,

my interests and hobbies vary but are too numerous to list. My interests are second only to finding people genuinely interested in the human heart and who could help to give me some moral support as well as the~ opportunity to correspond with the "Free World."

It is my sincere wish that you can understand and appreciate my request. I would also Like to thank you for . your kindness.. and understanding, and may all your goals and dreams remain within you,. reach.

Sincerely, Eddie Henigman

~~'Les Fem es Criminelles" s Denver

by Sally Williams

_; From the halls of Auraria to ti e walls of ' the Wazee, grafitti seems to be er pping up

everywhere - Les Femmes timinelles (LFC).

Contrary to popular belief, the FC is not simply a group of vandals, no are they ·students who have nothing bett r to do."

,. The LFC say they are '·a gang f women artists ("bad actresses") who ha e banded together to create underground ar ."

Because of their undergrou d nature, their number ranges anywhere fr m 3 to 10 at any given moment.

The red-lettered grafitti, the r d outlined ~ figures, and the sculptures in the 1alls of the

art building are all clues to a uch larger conceptual p_iece which concerns mythical murder. The group claims that a 1 the clues are meant to be woman-related. ence, the Diet Pepsi cans of one sculptu e and the pantyhose and high heels, of anotl er_. .

Since they are a "gang criminal women" they feel it is importan to remain underground. It is also necessary o maintain their ~nony'mity for fear of retal tion from Auraria Public Safety.

At the same time they crave this very sort of publicity. They say the primary purpose of the LFC is to evoke a reaction from their

,. public. Secondly, they want to ''create an art

building in a school that feels more ·Jike an office." One member, who goes by the name of "aqua-do·g,"' said, "this school is boring, and .this is one way to incite some emotion -to force the students to look at their environment."

They are also hoping "to establish a dialogue with the public" which is their reasoning behind their personal ads in The Metropolitan, Westward, and'The Colorado IXJ.ily.

At the moment, LFC's public dialogue is not very positive. When asked for reactions, one student responded with a raspberry and another, Susan Kirkman said, "it's not very good grafitti. Grafitti can be quite an art, but this isn't."

An· unidentified source stated she didn't like it because " I don't think it has any true conceptual or philosophical basis. Besides, it's giving women a bad name."

They are surprised by the outrage they have caused. They protest they are not as irresponsible as outsiders claim. They point to the outlined figures painted where the floor is already torn up and needs to be replaced.

However, despite this disclaimer, one MSC art teacher stated: "I would personally prefer thought be given as to how to make a conceptual statement without defacement or causing physical damage."

Probably more th.an any other reason. the natural beautv of Denver and its environs is the lure for visitors and modern day pros­pectors.

The Skyline Project, DURA's name for the renovation of this area, covers 113 acres and is a prime example of the new look be­mg created in Denver.

Although 7 of the 27 blocks that com­pose the Skyline Project are being "rehabili­tated" - th.at is, not razed but merely

Realizing that it must constantly strive for improvement - not ·resting on the laur­els of its past and its natural beauty -

. Denver is always working to improve its im­age.

Urban renewal is one factor cau"sing great leaps and bounds on the Denver scene.

For instance, the Denver Urban Renewal Authority (DURA) is doing its best to help "renew and improve what was one of the most rundown sections" of the downtown

This isn't saying all downtown Denver has become cloud-touching, squared-off, reflec­ting-mirror-sided super cubicles meant for upper-income condominiums and offices.

Parts of the Skyline Project are housing for the elderly and for low-income families. Other units are reconditioned buildings lik'.e those along Larimer Square, built in the late 1800s or at the tum of the century. ~ '

The people of Denver are not ready or willing to part with their landmarks or tra­ditions. That's why they saved Larimer Square, visited annually by thousands of tourists in search of a crepe, or a stroll , or a feel of Denver.

That is why the people have saved the Daniels and Fisher Tower. In the heart of down town Denver, respectfully set off from its surroundings by blac, parking lots and sterile modern architecture, stands the Tower: a skinny blond obelisk with Big Ben-type clocks at the top of each wall, just below the tapering apex, above the win· dows boarded over. It is a cherished mono­lithic reminder of days gone l>Y.

Although those days like all others have gone by, their images remain pan of the at­titude of the people of Denver. Just as they respect the old while they push toward the future, Denver~tes admire the growth of their city and at the same time appreciate the wide open spaces that attracted the city's founding fathers.

Today, as the metropolitan area grows; in all directions, creeping out from the core of Denver; erasing the line between the west side suburbs and the f ooth.ill, mingling the east side suburbs with the agricultural """ plains, and moving higglety-pigglety north and south to say hello to neighbors in Gree­ley and Colorado Springs, today that love of freedom and open space is embodied in parking lots, lots and lots of different kinds of parking lots in lots of different places.

The Denver Chamber of Commerce list the largest shopping malls in the Denver area according to their individual number of parking spaces. But even the research de­partment of the Chamber of Commerce doesn "t know how many parking spaces are in the city.

DURA stipulates their projects must in­clude a certain amount of parking area for every so many feet of developed land .

These parking lots , perhaps sadly however , must be "designed to screen vehicles there­in from public view."

By finding room on almost every block of the downtown area for at least a small paved parking lot , if not a multi-level , curvi­linear automobile hotel, Denver has done its best to insure the downtown area is kept free and open.

The suburban shopping malls keep their areas seemingly alfresco. Their acres of pav­ed land are usually no more than a stone's throw from a major highway or traffic in­terchange, so the passerby can simply turn off of the thoroughfare and enjoy those good old, hard topped, wide open spaces. For example, one mall in a south Denver suburb, boasts of being conveniently lo­cated at the junction of Highways 85 and 285, and having a parking area large enough to accomodate 7000 cars.

But par.king lots in Denver are not con­fined to the suburbs or the busy downtown area.

em elevations, all combine to support a variety of recreation offerings.

Just as Denver is progressing in looks and business, so are its sports becoming more modernized. For the automotively inclined - although Denver cannot match the auto culture of Southern California of Teaneck, New Jersey - Denverites have developed a wide range of motoring pastimes.

For instance, the rough-rider enthusiast, in a jeep or on a little scooter bike equip­ped with fat stubby little tires, can tear around the foothills near Golden, west of Denver, vroom-vrooming up a literal dust storm as he helps Mother Nature perform soil erosion that mere weather and climate alone could only do in thousands of years.

This sport also provides the participant the satisfaction of knowing he is leaving behind zig-zagging traHs and runs leading nowhere and do nothing more than pro­viding circular mazes breaking the rolling arid , monotony of the empty spaces the sportsman has tamed.

Stock Show, Johns-Mansville Corporation,

and the Ozannel Nine News Team.

On the west side of Denver itself, across Interstate 25 from the business district -and its fringe of light industry, one finds park­ing lots al least one-quarter of a block in size, adjacent to I -story, 2-bedroom pink or gray frame homes with dog houses in the back yards and the day's wash on the line.

This inbred love of the open lands, Den­ver's location between the prairies and the mountains, and its semi-arid climate with­out the extremely cold temperatures that

Yes, just get yourself one of those huge babies and head up to the hills. From your perch high above tl1~ crowd in their shadow-covered little cars. you can see everything for miles around.

balance If you don't really want to drive one of

those aluminum boxcars, maybe you would like just to look at them. That is a sport all 1n itself.

Out in the suburbs, easily found on the far side of Northglenn 's condominiums, east of Aurora's trailer parks, and on the Denver side of Jefferson County's dump, a number of businesses proyide acres and acres of recreational vehicles glistening in the bright Colorado sun. One of these lots covers 16 acres and greets any traveler who happens to glance north as he drives to or

It is a lovely area, with over 750 trailer spaces and a centrally-located postal pick­-up point that looks like those upright covered map display cases at interstate rest stops or points of interest. On a bright day with the sun reflecting from the rectangular trailer tops, the park appears as the world's largest aluminum foil dump.

Unfortunately, Redwood Estates II has no redwoods, no twisted or .knotty pines, aspens, or paw paws.

You can't miss the lots; on a good day, they each look like a giant metallic rash.

There is, of course, so much more Denver has to offer. This is only a brief look at a few outstanding topics.

People are certainly drawn by Redwood Es ta tes II. Located in Federal Heights , north of Denver, Redwood Estates II is a rolling ocean of trailer park community, with streets named Twisted Pine Drive, As­pen Court, Knotty Pine Street, and Paw Paw 'Avenue.

out where the new interstates are beginning to criss-cross and confuse the natives, where cows grazed not more than five years ago, the re are new developments of tri level homes and singles condominiums.

These flowering tracts are given names like Smoky Hills and Brandywine. No smoke, no hills, no brandywine.

But Denver is sure sounding good. And as Denver grows she11 even sound better . And as Denver sounds better, Denver looks bet­ter.

And looking good is what Denver is all about.

''A . j by S. Peter Duray-Bito

Even a casual observer of contemporary dnema is able to notice the decline of the .. director .. er3 of film. Films of the era starred the director r:1ther than the individual performers. wd out of this evolved a sort of director "demi-god:· Sidnev Lumet. Martin Scorcese. William Friedkin. Sam Peckinpah and Robert Altman towered over filmgoers in the opening credits.

Recently. however. the public has refused to worship these demi-gods in light of some rather awful films. It is pointless to speculate on why a director like Sidney Lumet will descend from Serpico or Network to 17ze Wiz. aside from maybe homage to an even higher god (the almighty dollar). No one. though. has fallen further or more soundly than Robert Altman.

With M* A *S*H in 1970. Altman not only provided a searing. comic comment on anarchy. but introduced some valid technical innovations. Expecially with audio overlaps and "'under-heard'' dialogue. Altman set a standard with M*A *S*H that he since has never lived up to. His films have become increasingly bizarre for bizarreness' sake and plainly self-indulgent. During Quintet, people actually left the performance because of the slow. dreary nature of the work. Quintet was quickly snd quietly withdrawn from the market.

A Perfect Couple is little more than a disturbing and senseless match-up of two obviously opposing life forces. The story centers around a couple's trials and

Cou-ple''- chees tribulations as they try to adapt to each otber. Paul Dooley and Marta Heflin (both in A Wedding) meet through a video-matching service and quickly find out everything about each other they failed to see on the tube. .

Dooley comes from a standard Altman black-comic family. They are Greek, traditional. stern and probably suffer from genetic dysfunction. The family sits around and watches the father conduct to a classical recording in a posh California mansion. Dooley is the black sheep of the family because he doesn't fit in with the stern epileptic lifestyle.

Marta Heflin portrays a very bored singer in a rock-'n-roll band called "Keepin' 'Em Off the Streets." Run by a dictatorial lead singer, the band is of the sleazy family-personality type, akin to Jefferson Airplane or Fleetwood Mac. Heflin spends most of her time on stage, sitting in a love seat. stroking her gay partner's hair while the lead singer belts out awful tunes holding a bottle of Heinecken.

The movie unfolds as a melodrama between Dooley and Heflin and through the

· mediocre tunes of "Keepin' 'Em Off the Streets." A sort of Altman rock-opera, the film is painf\Jl to watch. The various human conflicts Altman sets up suffer from the director's oppressive desire to jolt the viewer in any way possible. These cute, little avenues of 'dialogue experimentation become tiresome - and combined with the overworked tunes, the sensual disgust becomes overpowering.

Director Robert Altman: plainly selfindulgent.

Dooley holds a scene well and manages somehow to reconcile Altman's stupid matching with frail Heflin. One shudders to imagine how stocky Dooley covers boney Heflin, but that is another Altman incongruity. The Greek family is reasonably well cast, as is the band (except that the lead singer belongs in Nashville.). Boat owners ne~d crews!

A Perfect Couple climaxes with the Los

Angeles Symphony playing with "Keepin' 'Em Off the Streets" in the Hollywood Bowl. Dooley and Heflin have finally found each other as the opposing elements of modern sleaze-rock and formalist, classical tradition finally meet on common ground. All's well that ends well - the lowest common denominator.

Dreadfully cheesy.

Med id .-IS the message -~ for the AM-C

l by Mark l.aPedus I Health Occupational Students of

Community College of Denver (CCD) will soon watch television - during classtime.

Diane Gladue, instructor of Health Occupational Laboratories at CCD, is in the process of televising I 0-15 instructional programs.

Some of the programs include pre-Operation antiseptics and intravenous injection techniques. .

"This is one way of presenting instruction," says Mary Davis, Director of Health Occupations a1 CCD, "because students need to see a person doing this."

Ms. Glaude produces these tapes at the Auraria Media Center (AMC) with the aid of a federal grant.

The Auraria Media Center (AMC) is organized to provide instruction for the campus, explairis Ray Anderton, AMC director.

The AMC, funded via CCD budget, is an emporium of media resources. There are six separate departments at the AMC: . 1. Instructional Development; 2. Production Services; 3. Media Engineering; 4. Graphics/Photographies; 5. Campus Services and 6. Media Resources.

Barry Barnes, Chief of Instruction Development, is a learning theorist in educational principles. He feels that today's 'college student is apathetic toward current classroom learning.

Barnes proposes several techniques pertaining to classroom inst~ctioi:i. <?n~ is confidence testing. This- technique 1s similar to B.F. Skinner's positive reinforcement theory. The student is asked to "place a bet" on individual test questions, according to his ability to answer the question. · -

Thus, the teacher is informed of the material that the student is confident in and what information must be presented in class again. .

Barnes's major contribution at the AMC 1s the "T.V. Tutorial." It consists of taping individual lessons between a teacher and a student in a "Mr. Wizard" type format. The teacher uses no sc.ript in this 30-minuty tape presentation .

Barnes says television instruction decreases dropout rates in classes and provides the student with a visual experience of material.

The option of replaying the material is the biggest advantage, he says. .

The instructional programmmg takes place at the Production Services at the AMC.

Don Flenniken, Director and Producer of AMC productions: Ron Royball, Assistant Producer; and a host of work-study and intern students provide the needs of the faculty during television instruction.

"I'm responsible for program con~ent," explains Aenniken, "and what is visually important."

The Production Seri vices consists of two television studios-black and white, plus color. Each is equipped with cameras, lighting facilities, backdrops, stage sets, television monitors, and control rooms.

The AMC Production Services are faced with problems such as the shortage of staff to operate equipment-and what one student referred to as "'shoddy equipement."

"I agree with him," says· Anderton. "We should junk 50 per cent of the equipment."

With the many difficulties in p,roduction, Flennikan says, however, "we're getting better and better."

Media Engineering is a department behind the scenes of television production·.

Larry Wood, Chief of Engineering; Jack Seagle, Engineer; and two work- study students are in charge of what the student actually sees on the television screen.

This highly techrrical work is done in the master control room, a complicated cubicle with extensive electronic hardware. At a first glance, one would think the engineering equipment could clone students from three biology classes.

Not so. Most of the equipment was either built by Seagle or purchased from State Surplus- the state warehouse of scrapped materials.

"With only tlrree full-time staff members," says Wood, "we're accomplishing so much withso little."

Another feature fo Media Engineering is Campus Distribution. Campus Distribution involves the installation of television monitors, receivers, and terminals in- every classroom at the Auraria Campus.

For inst,ance, a teacher of biology desires to present a class with a television program on mitosis . First, the teacher makes sure the television monitor is connected to a terminal, wh.ich is similar to an outlet. Then the ·teacher calls a media engineer on a receiver (telephone). Immediately, the mitosis appears on the screen.

"The instructor will be more in charge of media ," comments Wood.

But, at the present time, there are only ten such unifr available. .Mun.itors rpust be wheeled from classroom to classroom- a very sluggish process.

The Auraria Media Center (AMC) officially imposed rental fees on stud~t organizations for the use of borrowed audio and visual equipment March 9.

George Cowen, coordinator of campus services for Community College of Denver-Auraria, said the rental fee policy has been in force since the- AMC's inceptjon, bu "was not evenly enforced until now."

Cowen explained some organizations utilized equipment from the AMC free of charge, while others pajd the fees, ''.No~ that we have put the policy in writing, it Wiii be a lot easier to enforce," he said. "It is now waiting for final approval from one of the governing councils of the AMC."

Student organizations may rent equipment from the AMC, but only through a faculty or staff member and only for instructional purposes. Slide projectors are leased for $3 per day, and 16mm movie projectors may be procured for $8 a day.

The instructional divisions of each

institution contribute $15,000 for the support of the AMC. For this reason, two student orgaizations, MEChA and CoPIRG, · have voiced dissent over the fee policy.

"I think the equipment. should be made available to organizations for free," said Dave Dolfinger, faculty advisor for CoPIRG. A MEChA spokesperson agreed, adding they (MEChA) had not been charged for use of AMC equipment before Friday. · Cowen said enforcement of the rental policy is part of his work as coordinator of campus services. Until recently, the position was temporar)'- al)d had been so for . 18 months. Cowen blamed the delay on "administrative hassles."

Cowen is not certain which council is scheduled to approve the policy-there are so many councils and committees, even Cowen cannot tell if any particular one has definite jurisdiction. .

"I'm still trying to figure out how this place works," he said.

Macintyre received his B.A. in History from the University of Detroit, and his M.A. (British History) ' and Ph.D. (Russian History) from the University of Iowa.

During his tenure at USF, -Macintyre negotiated contracts between the university and faculty in a collective bargaining format, taking the role of chief campus arbitrator.

Macintyre, Dr. Richard Fontera of Southeastern Massachusetts University, and Dr. John A. Dillon of the University-of Louisville were selected as finalists by the MSC . Institutional Advisory Committee- comprised of MSC staff, faculty, and students.

All three finalists visited the Auraria campus last week, meeting with MSC -

· students, staff, and faculty, and the entire Board of Trustees.

However, Dillon withdrew his name from consideration late last· week, leaving the Trustees with a choice between Macintyre and Fontera .

Macintyre, Fontera, and Dillon were chosen from 11 semi-finalists-who, in turn, were chosen from over 100 intialapplicants.

Netzel said he would return to his forHier position of MSC Vice President for Academic Affairs upon Macintyre's appointment June 1.

Netzel commented on his brief tenure as acting MSC president-which saw increasing unrest at MSC in the face of a possible merger with the University" of Col~rado-Denver

faculty system-wide - but only if the state legislature appropriates the· money to hold the vote.

The cost of the referendum, plus the first-year costs of collective bargaining, were· cited by the Task Force at over $160,000.

The resolution also called for the consideration of a planned set of rules and guidelines should faculty vote for collective bargaining, plus open hearings on each campus on the rules and guidelines before the adoption by the Trustees.

Under the proposed rules and guidelines, student representatives would be able to confer. with both faculty and Trustee representatives before negotiations. Once the negotiations begin, student representatives would observe and be able to comment at negotiating sessions.

Student representatives would also have the right to attend bargaining caucuses :with Trustee representatives, and also be able to see the final contract before approval by the Trustees.

The Task Force Report is the end result of a six-month study which included interviews with college administrators, collective bargaining sources, faculty union representatives, and the Student Trustee Advisory-Council (ST AC).

Another department of the future is Graphics and Photographies. Tom Salas, Chief of Graphics/Photographies, and two work-study students provide the visual media.

Visual media includes slides, graphs, and photographs pertinent to classroom instruction. .

Salas feels he "can't produce" according to faculty needs. With the inexperienced work-study students and primitive facilities, . he must turn down many requests.

A chemistry teacher requested a periodic chart for a chemistry class presentation. The results were poor.because the chart was done by manual stencil lettering.

A typesett1ng machine to properly construct a periodic table would cost about $10,000, Salas said.

Campus Serivces deals with delivery and operational . instruction involving film projectors, opaque projectors, tape recorders, and other media apparatus.

George Cowan, Supervisor of Campus Services; Judy Cook, Audiovisual Technician; and a number of other persons complete this department .

If an instructor wants to check out equipment, arrangements are made with Campus Services, and the desired equipment is- delivered to the classroom itself-or to any other location.

Along with the exceptional service, however, Campus Services is in the limelight over a controversy. The faculty is provided with free rental and services, but students and, student organizations must now pay a fee for using this equipment.

Although the audio and visual equipment is less expensive at the AMC than at other rental agencies, Anderton says the rental fee "covers the breakage of equipment."

Vivian Brockman , Chief of Media Resources, is in charge of non- print materials or software. This includes T.V. Tutorials, entertainment films, and anything directed towards curriculum.

Software may be viewed at the Auraria Ubrary Music/ Media Center, located on the second floor , at the remote northeast end of the building_

Some sfimulating software at the Music/Media Center are Charlie ·chaplin's The Gold Rush, a physics-related short called Frames of Reference and Carl Rodgers on Marriage.

"We serve directly to the Music/ Media Center," says Anderton.

"It's not that it (media) teaches.better," Anderton says, "but it gives ~tudents options."
