Bash creates conflict Funding problems arise between UCO, MSCD student governments Antoinette Vecchio The Metropolitan

The 2nd Annual Budweiser Back to School Bash at Auraria Campus on Monday was just that-a bash. It was a party for students and a hard hit to some of MSCD's student administration.

The CU-Denver event, which took place in front of the North Classroom, offered students hot dogs, soda and beer-and an earful of commentary on MSCD's student body president, Chip Wiman.

Bret Scott, concert director for MSCD Student Activities was there when the event started.

"Someone got on the speaker and welcomed everyone to the bash," Scott said. "But he said it was for UCD students only."

Scott said MSCD students were told by the speaker they would not be able to participate because Chip "power trip" Wiman would not contribute to the event. However, MSCD students were allowed to purchase the hot dogs and soda for $.50.

Coalition tries to win groups recognition Janie Tinnon The Metropolitan

Representatives of several Auraria student organizations met recently to form a coalition designed to strengthen and further their goals on campus.

The coalition, called the Progressive Coalition Roundtable, will bring groups together sucli' as the Black Student Alliance, Democratic Socialists of America, Feminist Alliance at Metro, Metro American Indians for Student Equality and Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan to share their plans and work on common political issues.

"This coalition will help to activate students who are looking for ways to empower themselves," said Ken Grandt, a member of the DSA.

One goal for the members of the roundtable is for the organi-

zations to support each other during individual group events and plan strategies on issues such as equal rights for students.

"I think this is the first time these organizations have sat down together in the same room," said Jody Andrade, coordinator of the .coalition and a member of the

,_ ~eminist Alliance at Metro. According to Andrade, misun

derstandings and infighting have disrupted the unicy among some of the groups in the past. Andrade and another member thought if a round table was created· on an efficient platform, unity among the organizations would then be established.

"The round table will give organizations that are politically active a unified voice," Andrade said. "We don't have to agree with each other, but we can give each other support.

Gerri Madrid, an MSCD student, said: ''The coalition will help us work together as a group. Once we are together, people will realize that we can work together and there

will be a big change." Another goal of the roundtable

will be to tear down some of the barriers, which are said to be caused by rumors between the groups.

"It's time we stopped opposing each other," Andrade said. "It's not an issue of who's more oppressed, the problem is that oppression exists. Being unified will

give us more power to accomplish common goals. Otherwise, we'll fall."

One stipulation of having the coalition is that faculty members will not be included at the roundtable meetings so the students can get together amongst themselves. No permanent times

The Special Projects are designed around the goals set by Student Government for the year. Listed below are these projects and a brief description of each. Day Care offers one of our greatest challenges. The challenge is finding a way to help students who experience child care problems in a manner that meets everyone's needs. Student Government will be working with campus and community resources to develop alternative solutions to day care. Student Government will be co-sponsoring several Student Awareness Conferences throughout the year. These conferences are designed to expose students to social issues outside of the classroom. Developing leadership skills is an important part of the educational process. Student Government will offer a Leadership Seminar to help enhance the development of these skills. Social Events serve as a catalyst to unite student involvement. The Auraria Campus will see a comprehensive Waste Management Program implemented this year. Student Government will be providing advertising for th is new program, in order to encourage everyone to participate. Student Government is sponsoring a Film Series Program for both day and night night students. This program will offer first-run films at a reduced price to Metro students. The Scholarship Program would provide scholarships for Metro students. Student Government is also working on the RTD Bus Pass Program which would allow students to ride RTD buses for a reduced price and discussing a Constitutional Convention which would re-write the Student Government constitution, providing for better representation and a more functional structure.

Problems plague transfer evaluations Barbara La Freniere The Metropolitan

A recent change in the transfer credit evaluation process and a new computer system have led to a backlog of MSCD transcripts waiting to be accepted.

Transfer students' eligibility to receive financial aid could subsequently be hampered as well.

Transfer evaluations are taking an average of four to five months at MSCD, and assessments of backlogged transcripts may not be completed for another four to six months, according to Linda Holland, the transfer articulation coordinator for the college.

A major reason forthe delays is MSCD's requirement that all courses transferred to MSCD be "equivalent," or nearly equal in content, to courses offered at MSCD, said Kenneth Curtis, dean of Admissions and Records.

Last March, Holland said that MSCD's goal was to comply with the 1989 State Transfer Policy which states: "Each fouryearinstitution will require that departmental evaluations be completed within the first month of a transfer student's arrival on campus, or within the first month after the

I. Transfer students must officially declare that they are seeking a degree at MSCD. They must have transcripts sent to MSCD by the schools they previously attended and wait for those to be received by the Admissions department. Once everything is received, students are sent a transfer evaluation card that must be filled out, signed and returned. When receipt of

student's transfer file is complete." However, five months later MSCD is

still not in compliance, despite its new computer system. The waiting period for transcript evaluations has only decreased from 16 to 20 weeks, to about 15 weeks, Holland said. She estimated that MSCD could comply with the state's mandate by January 1992.

Since 75 percent of all MSCD's students transfer from other schools, a new procedure of reviewing all classes transferred to MSCD has put a heavy strain on the five permanent and two temporary transcript evaluators,

tial evaluation of transcripts to determine whether MSCD considers another school's courses equivalent to MSCD's courses.

3. A weekly list of these equivalencies are printed out and sent to the appropriate departments where the department heads have authority to accept or reject specific courses, based upon the course descriptions from the original school.

Holland said. In addition, transfer evaluation delays have

been compounded by numerous other problems, she said.

A new computer system, designed by the information technology department to facilitate evaluations, was implemented in midMarch, but has been beset by problems ever since. Holland explained that evaluators had to be retrained to use the new system, which replaced the previous system of general equivalency that accepted transfer credits

Recycling effort trashes Auraria's waste Deb Brown The Metropolitan

A new recycling program on the Auraria campus will reduce the amount of solid waste taken off campus and could ultimately save money.

The campus-wide program, which began this week, is a joint effort among the Student Advisory Committee to the Auraria Board, CoPIRG, all three student governments and the Auraria Higher Education Center administration.

Maggie McConaghie, business manager for Facilities Management at Auraria, said she began working on the recycling program

about nine months ago. The initial cost for the program,

McConaghie said, was $41,500 and ·was funded through the AHEC general funds.

She said that one of the most successful and long running recycling programs is on the CU-Boulder campus, but unlike that program this one will not be funded through an increase in student fees.

The plans for the program will include white paper recycling bins in the offices and computer labs and aluminum and newspaper bins which will be located at various locations throughout the buildings. The bins will not be at all of the locations until later this fall, but som~ bio..s we.re: ava.ilal:>le AtJg. 215 ...

"The students will be able to access the bins because they will be in lounges, hallways and entrances," McConaghie said.

According to McConaghie, the bulk of the cost is in manpower continuing costs are maintaining the dumpster and travel expenses to a recycling center which hasn't been chosen yet.

"It costs money to recycle, but over the next three to five years we'll see a reduction in the amount of sol id waste taken off campus which will reduce the cost of trash removal," she said.

Chip Wiman, MSCD student government president, said he has been campaigning for

the recycling program since he ran for office. "I didn't think the program was compre

hensive," Wiman said. "We generate a lot of bottles and a lot of white paper. AHEC offices already recycle paper but there's a ton of white paper generated on this campus by students."

He said that SA CAB and CoPIRG did the research on the bin locations.

Barb Ferrill, chairperson for CoPIRG's state board of directors, said the program was a long time in coming after working on getting it started about two years ago. She said there will be approximately I 0-15 bins throughout campus. Volunteers collect the recyclables every day, she said.

"Maybe a few years down the road, we'll start saving money," Ferrill said.

McConaghie said,"As the program gets more accepted, and as people understand that we are recycling, we'll add more commodities to the program. We'll add glass and plastic."

Dean Wolf, vice president for operations at AHEC, said he has been working with CoPIRG and SACAB on other recycling projects for at least a year and a half and then got this program focused with SA CAB to get it campus-wide.

Even though this program is new, Wolf said, other recycling efforts, such as office white paper and old engine oil and grease

With the reduction of solid waste and the revenue from the sale of aluminum cans, newspaper and white paper, we should make this a self-supporting program over the next three to four years." 0

were eventually served the beer free after numerous complaints.

"We don't want to get involved in the politics of student government," Branscombe said. "We provided the beer for everyone over the age of 21 to enjoy. Basically, our only regulations are that everyone be of legal age to drink and be carded, and that those who do drink, drink responsibly--only having three beers. We wouldn't support any event that discriminated against any other school."

Announcements were made approximately 10 times over a period of 30 minutes speaking out against Wiman.

"It wasn't necessary," Scott said. "It was slander."

'We don't want to get involved • in the politics of student gov

What the speaker failed to tell the stu-... dents, however, was that MSCD did offer to

contribute money to the event, but UCO turned it down.

...

• T

•

"We have funds for special projects," Wiman said. "We want to do social events, but this was CU's event, not ours."

Wiman said UCO never approached the student government about funding, but a bill was introduced in the Senate tcr ask for funding for the event.

"The Senate put together a bill for the Bud Bash and I agreed I wouldn't veto it," Wiman said. "The senate appointed a (temporary) committee. I wasn't on the committee, but I agreed to what they decided."

On Aug. 8, student Sen. Charles Buchanan and MSCD Vice President Anthony Vander Horst submitted a bill asking for funding approval of the Bash .

The bill requested that: Funds for the event not exceed $2,000. Refreshments include a vegetarian al

ternative, and not less than 50 percent of funds allocated for food go toward this end.

A temporary committee be adopted to work in conjunction with UCO events and to authorize and allocate the funds.

The bill was passed Aug. 14, with $1,400 being made available to UCO and allocations on how the money should be spent.

In a letter to Charles Buchanan dated Aug. 16, Dan Holden, Events Board director for UCD and former Student Body President at MSCD, declined MSCD 's offer to help cosponsor the event.

Holden stated the the amount allocated was not an appropriate contribution since MSCD has 7,000 more students than UCD.

"We asked for $2,000 and we got $1,400," Holden said. "They told us to spend $500 on fruit.,,

UCD spent approximately $4,600 for the event.

'The Senate allocated the money ,"Wiman said. "Dan Holden never came to the student

government to ask us to be a sponsor. We gave him money and he turned it down."

'They (MSCD) did not want to give as much money or manpower ... In the future, it will just be UCO.'

Holden said because MSCD didn't want to contribute at least 50 percent of the cost of the event, and because they turned down the money MSCD did offer, UCO did charge some Metro students for food early in the event.

"We wanted to make a point," Holden said. "Metro has 7 ,000 more students and we're footing the cost. But we're trying to be fair. We're not charging anyone anymore."

Holden said he wanted MSCD to split the cost of the bands and advertisement for the event.

Roxanne Nice, president ofUCD student government, said that UCO planned the entire event.

"They (MSCD) did not want to give as much money or manpower," she said. "In the future, it will just be UCO.''

Bret Scott disagreed with that concept. "The bottom line is we should care about

the event and not who sponsored it. We should all be allies," Scott said. "I thought the event was very successful and I wish them the best for future events."

Angie Binder, staff assistant for MSCD student government, said, "Metro was ready to run a full-page ad on the event in The Metropolitan and pay for it, but Dan took our names off of it and tore up the contract."

Wiman said he has dissociated himself from the whole thing.

"I think we should have been a part of the event," Wiman said. "The senate gave Dan the money, but he turned it down. Dan took his roller-skate key and ran home." 0

Coalition to organize groups from Coalition page 1 have been scheduled for the meetings but at least one will take place at the beginning of each semester.

Members of the roundtable said the coalition will help not only to strengthen their groups, but benefit students.

"This is another way to help the student," said Jeanine Cowan, program board chairman at the Student Union. "The groups will have support to help them improve the campus."

The coalition will also help to eliminate duplicated political efforts and keep each group informed of the other's activities.

"Our main goal is to share information so that we won't overla ," said Xeturah

Woodley, vice president of the BSA. "The more organizations we have, the more students will be encouraged to participate."

The coalition is like a house with individual rooms each occupied by individuals with their own causes, Woodley said.

"I remember when Angela Davis spoke on campus, she said something that really describes this coalition," Woodley said. "She said that if each of us is part of the same cause, then there is no need to fight alone."

Madrid agreed: "I hope the coalition will benefit students collectively. We want to make Metro accessible through our efforts. Metro should be accessible--not only to people who are white, and people with money, but to everyone." 0

Sorry, we're full The PTC became overcrowded on the first day of classes as students flooded into the new facility to take advantage of the close-in parking. The PTC was built in an attempt to ease parking constraints students have experienced on campus in the p·ast. With a record enrollment this fall, the garage may not meet previous expectations.

based on course prefix codes. Under the old system, a 300-level philosophy course could be transferred as a humanities course, and the credits could apply to general studies or to the student's major or minor, as needed, Holland said.

To expediteequivalency comparison, data on every course at every two-and four-year public college in the state is being entered into the computer, back to 1981. Course equivalencies will automatically be assigned by the computer, according to previous evaluations that were entered into the computer's permanent record and stored for future use, Curtis said.

Because out-of-state course comparisons were taking too long, all out-of-state courses

have been classified as "non-equivalent" by the evaluators and referred to the department heads for review, Curtis said.

MSCD's new interpretation of the legislation regulating financial aid to degreeseeking students only, has also contributed to the delays. Last year, more than 1,500 students sought financial aid but did not register as degree-seeking.

Since part of the degree-seeking process is that a student officially transfers to MSCD and undergoes a transcript evaluation, students applied en masse. The sudden influx of requests for transfer evaluations compounded the backlog, Holland said.

The results of the delay can be more than

annoying for some students. Students with at least 60 transferable credits (junior status) are eligible for more financial aid money than freshmen and sophomores, but they must have the transfer evaluation first.

Students who are in this position should inform financial aid and request a form prompting a "priority evaluation."

Also, some departments require junior standing before students can register for 300 and 400 level courses. Students who need advising should see the faculty advisers for their major and minor.

Students wanting a preliminary assessment of their transcripts should contact the Student Advising and Assessment Office for help, Holland said. Q

August 30, 1991 THE METROPOLITAN 9

Stevie Nicks springs into 'Timespace' Music review Jenny Jenny with Christophe The Metropolitan

The new Stevie Nicks??

Opening act for Stevie Nicks, Billy Falcon, not typical rock

Cynics have long dismissed the everethereal Stevie Nicks as a space-waif not of this planet. Nicks' songs feature indescribable irony and sometimes prove prophetic. Her music and persona have earned her as loyal a following as you'll find in music today.

On Sept. 3, Nicks releases "Timespace: The Best of Stevie Nicks," an anthology packed with gems from Nicks' canyon. She walks with the past and into the future like an angel descending upon earth, leaving behind the past indulgences and pain so notorious with her life.

Nicks enlisted Jon Bon Jovi and Poison· s Bret Michaels to write two of the three new songs included on this project, the result being "Sometimes It's A Bitch, Sometimes It's A Breeze," and "Love's A Hard Game To Play," res~ctively.

In listening to"Sometirnes It's A Bitch ... ," the first release from "Timespace," it appears a~ if Bon Jovi has peered into Nicks' unattainable crystal ball and delivered a look into her lifestyle and heartache as the reigning high priestess of rock: "I've reached into the darkness and come out with treasure/I've laid down with love and I've woke up with lies/It's not what's in the mirror, but what's left inside."

Billy Falcon isn't a typical rocker, by today's standards anyway. He's a throwback to the days when rock was more than music, it was a movement, a statement. His first release, "Pretty Blue World,'' was composed entirely by Falcon and features deeply emotional and meaningful lyrics that stand far above the post-card lyrics so common in many of today's rock songs.

Although Falcon opened up for Stevie Nicks on her "Whole Lotta Trouble" tour, he's just beginning to develop a following for himself. ''Power Windows," the first release from "Pretty Blue World," has seen only marginal success on Billboard's charts, but was well-received by the crowd at Red Rocks. The song tells the tale of a guy who has everything money can buy, but he's empty without the power of love. Familiar

But perhaps the best new song on "Timespace" is "Desert Angel," available on CD only, penned by Nicks herself as a tribute to those lost and still living after the Persian Gulf war. "You 're on the other side of the world in the desert/We are the guardians/No black clouds/just the faces of you." Her razor sharp voice cuts through to the emotional core as her cries and sugary moans resonate to the final note.

story, but Falcon's vocals and lyrics provide a unique charm to the cliche. Backed with a laid-back melody featuring guitar by Jon Bon Jovi, this so·ng has a lot of character.

"Heaven's Highest Hill" is a heartfelt track written by Falcon after his wife died and he was faced with the task of telling his little girl that mommy wouldn't be coming home anymore. It's a touching ballad marked by Falcon 'spoignantvocals, which grip the listener's emotions. He captured the drama and brought the song to life, making this one of the best tracks on the CD.

"Pretty Blue World" is an exceptional album that summons the days of classic rock with sincere lyrics and outstanding rock music. :::l

In support of her album, Nicks embarked on asummertourofthe United States. If you were lucky enough to catch Nic~s ' Red Rocks gig on Aug. 11 , you would have noticed a more determined, rejuvenated performer with revamped arrangements to her already classic songs, perhaps a prelude to her "Timespace" collection which includes remixed, sweetened versions of Nicks' classics that any discerning fan would love.

And so it appears that the old as well as the new Stevie Nicks is ready to walk into the "real" world with hope for tomorrow. As she sings in "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You": "If not for me then do it for yourself/If not for me then do it for the world." 0

OPINION I EDITORIAL Gym celebration unnecessary Sharon Dunn News Editor

What a great idea to add on to the Physical Education and Recreation building. It was a long time in coming. But that long time is turning into an eternity as students all over the Auraria Campus still must wait to use the better portions of the addition.

Now, with construction almost wrapping up, students have to wait just a little longer so the building's directors can figure out how they're going to open the building in a "grand" manner.

So far, only ideas have been shot in the air about a grand opening, and Dick Feuerborn, the building's director, won't commit to a final date., Apparently, he's waiting for the construction workers to be out of the building. Who knows when that will be.

Construction on the building began a month later than expected and was supposed to last only 1 O months. Now, more than a year later, construction is not finished and we're already paying the $13.50 bond fee which, according to a student referendum in 1988, wasn't supposed to be assessed until construction was complete, but no later than the Fall of 1990.

Here's the fun part. Construction was originally supposed to be finished by the Fall of 1990.

But rumor has it, that isn't the big concern. Students just want to use the place, and not have to

walk through construction work or unfinished hallways. Looking into the barrel of fun ideas to have a grand

opening, the building's administrators have come up with a doozy.

Here we go kids! Let's have a treasure hunt to open the place up with a real big bang. Yep, it's a good one alright.

In fact, why don't we wait until Easter, when the students can stuff their baskets stock full of T-shirts and free towel service for the remainder of the year. Let's make it a real bash and start a new gym class for decorating eggs. And, of course, let's wear our Sunday best.

Come on adminstration. Are you really thinking of insulting college students in such a way?

It probably won't take long for the students to get "acquainted" with the place if you just let them use it and use their common sense.

How about giving the students a real gift and not charge all of the fun little fees to get a towel or rent a racket?

How about dropping the student bond fees for a semester or two?

That would be a gift, for sure. But, inch by inch, day by day, we're still waiting for

construction to be finished - behind schedule. In the mean time, we have to wait a little more for

the administration to figure out what fun little activities we can do to get to know the place a little better.

Hey guys, forget a grand opening. It's a waste of time and money. Just open the doors and let us walk through.

PBS airs one-sided 'debate' The Aug. 13 MacNeil/Lehrer News Hour contained

a lengthy segment on the future of Cuba and Fidel Castro. The so-called experts for the so-called debate included Alicia Torez from a Cuban American Committee, who put forth a critical view of Cuba but sees the country "opening up, allowing discussion on the viability of socialism, n but maintained that for the most part Cuba is still "closed" and "oppressive." The other two guests, Ramon Cernuda, a Cuban human rights activist, and Ninoska Perez were both extreme critics of Cuba, Castro and fervent anti-communists in general. Perez defined Cuba as a "military regime" that violates all "basic human rights." Cernuda called Cuba ''the most oppressive regime in Latin America."

This was to be the scope of the informative discussion on Cuba. Views of the right and the far right were included while all else was denied -- even admission or recognition. The question to ask about such one-sided representation of such a controversial issue as Cuba is: How can a line of narrow conservative opinions be put forth as anything other than governmental cheerleading? A statement such as "most oppressive in Latin America" is placed upon Cuba and goes uncontested. (Guatemala, which Amnesty International has condemned throughout the '80s as having the most cases of torture, death squad assassinations, political prisoners, beatings and violations of human rights was not held up or compared to Cuba.)

Following the "debate," as if three conservative, pro-U.S. views were not enough, the official U.S. policy was given in another interview with the Assistant Secretary of State Bernard Aronson, who mentioned that "all countries except Cuba, participate in free and fair elections." This statement also went unopposed.

(The March 1 O elections in El Salvador were filled with fraud, intimidation and violence with the U.S. backed right wing party ARENA winning a predictable majority in both areas of government. Six weeks before the election 15 members of the opposition were brutally murdered in a military death-squad raid, only one of several recent massacres, hardly an atmosphere permitting "free and fair" elections.) Aronson mentioned these free and fair elections three times throughout the interview, while also mentioning that "Cuba has the second largest army in Latin America." (This of course, sounds very similar to Bush's alarmist rhetoric that worked so well in whipping Americans into a war frenzy during the Gulf buildup. "The Iraqis have the fourth largest army in the world.")

One would think that PBS would cover both or many sides to an issue. That the Bush Administration is able to monopolize the news, having their governmental policies disguised as information or as the popular will, is the most effective form of thought control. In a police state the people know they are being told lies, half truths and propaganda. In America, the government doesn't need to control the means of communication because as MacNeil/Lehrer News Hour proves, (and the other major networks also fall in step) the governmental line will be heralded freely without coercion, dissent or disagreement by the major media and cultural institutions.

"The man who thinks he is free is the easiest to control." And so it goes in the good ole U.S. of A.

Harvest Restaurant and Bakery fame, opened their new Rockies Patio Deli Aug. 20 . They opened their first Rockies Deli on 16th and Welton in Jan. 1990.

The Turleys were considering an expansion of their downtown business, but had no idea they'd wind up on Auraria campus. They were here discussing catering for the St. Francis Center when they heard about the bid opening for a new restaurant.

The couple have been in the health food business for nearly two decades. A gap was filled in the restaurant business with the opening of the Good Earth Restaurant in Boulder in 1977, which later became known as The Harvest Restaurant and Bakery. They knew what the Boulderites wanted back then. The success was so irreatthat soon after.

a second Harvest opened in Glendale. ( Both Harvests are still open).

The Turleys are living proof of the healthconscious mind set. 'fhey bike to work, and occasionally deliver catered orders by bike. They average 30 catered orders per day through the downtown site. Their children, 15 and 17, will help out when needed.

For get-a-ways, the Turleys enjoy trips to their cabin near Idaho Springs, where there's "no electricity, no running water, and no telephone!" Nancy said.

Another indication of healthy habits used in the Turley's business practice is that they cook their own turkey and roast beef, using no preservatives, and they bake their own bagels and breads daily.

The Turleys took a break from the restaurant business in 1985, selling the Harvest to join the non-profit Beyond War Foundation on a voluntary basis. The group's premise was to "change people's thinking about war," Jim said. "Our survival [as humans on Earth] depended on making a change," Nancy added. Nancy served Beyond War for five years and Jim for a little more than three years.

Beyond War's approach was not to protest or demonstrate, Jim said. It acted as a diplomatic peace corps, of sorts, speaking with officials from other countries, and link-

A personal view If I had another year here, I would learn how to speak Todd Burgess Assistant Editor

When I was in sixth grade I wondered with complete seriousness why none of the presidential candidates advocated abolishing formal education.

Actually, I wasn't all that concerned with formal education; my wish was to get rid of the sixth grade.

It made perfect sense to me: If kids weren't cooped up in front of a chalkboard all day, they'd be free to play baseball, hide-n-seek, kickball, slip-n-slide, hockey, ding-dongditch--important things.

I promised my friends and family that ifl

were ever elected president, I'd not only get rid of school, I'd also get rid of taxes. Oh, the logic was so clear then: Kids don't like school? Get rid of school. Parents don't like taxes? Get rid of taxes.

Now as I enter my senior year of college, my perfectly clear logic says that Uncle Sam should put me through an additional year of school; pay my tuition, books and rent; feed me - allow me to do nothing else but be a student.

It makes perfect sense to me: If students didn't have to juggle 18 credits, two jobs and a life, they'd have time to learn.

In sixth grade games were my way out. As a senior, learning is my way out, my

way to avoid responsibility and the boredom

of the cold, cold real world. And there are so many classes left to take

before I graduate. Like speech class. Imagine a person

graduating from college without the ability to speak.

Well, that's where I'm at. Put me in front of a group of people, heck, even one warm body, and I lose the ability to vocalize a complete thought. Now should a guy have to go into that cold, cold real world without the ability to utter a sentence?

I think not. So, please, join me in my plea. If we're

successful in getting this free extra year, I'll make sure your taxes are eliminated ... if I'm ever elected president. 0

From the cheap seats: a one-man peanut gallery Sports Briefs Getting a degree? Buy some clubs

Fan scholarship offer Will Hinton Sports Editor

I was walking through the Cherry Creek Mall the other day doing a little you'll-neverbe-able-to-afford-that window shopping when I came across a T-shirt that summed up my summer break.

It read: Golf is a beautiful walk spoiled by a little white ball .

I was instantly inspired to write about the Game from Hell and its place in higher education.

Golf truly is the greatest game you will ever despise.

Qne night ol' Lucifer must have been down in his fiery hole tossing back a few cold ones when it dawned on him-golf: the ultimate torture.

What better way to torment humanity than to have them futilely flail at a tiny, dimpled orb intended to come to rest in an unseen hole that is slightly larger than a Susan B. Anthony silver dollar.

Forthose who refused to play, Satan found a way to torture them, too.

These people would be subjected to the golfer's wardrobe, a collection of threads that even Cher wouldn't be caught dead in. Kind of a Brady Bunch hits the links type thing.

However, the human race, being the irrational glutton for punishment that it is, embraced the game.

Golf has seen a steady rise in popularity over the last decade and the reasons are threefold.

Firstly, golf, unlike football and basketball, is a sport that can be played for a lifetime. When you're 70 what will you be more inclined to do, play a game of flag football or one-on-one, or hit the links?

Golf is also a great excuse to get out and exercise. In one round you will walk at least three miles, four or five if you are a hack.

Finally, golf takes you out to nature in all its splendor, even in the middle of a city.

And this is where I make the tie-in with golf and a college degree.

Business and advertising majors please pay close attention.

The United States is the axis around which capitalism revolves and therefore is home to a majority of the world's business community.

What is the connection to golf? Well , those of you who believe all the

business transactions go on in board rooms and CEOs' offices are fooling yourself.

Business transactions take place on the golf course.

Sure, the dotted lines are signed over dinner or back at the office, but the negotiat-

ing goes on in the fairways and on the greens. I was talking to a local investment banker

not long ago and he said that ifhe had it all to do over again he would have played a lot more golf when he was younger because it seemed like all his associates and clients preferred the course over the board room.

If you don't believe that just watch those afternoon reruns of "Bewitched" and see how many times Darren and Larry hit the links to smooze with potential clients.

The same goes for politics. Ever notice how every modern president

has been a golfer? Right now George is in Kennebunkport, and so are his clubs.

So, all you aspiring business leaders and politicians, not to mention lawyers and doctors, learn the game.

The key is to get good enough now so that down the road you can lose to an inferior, but higher ranking, opponent in a convincing manner. While hitting a great shot is hard, tanking an entire round without patronizing the boss is even harder.

Just think about it. A few trips to the driving range now could lead to a key to the executive washroom later.

It will also lead to high blood pressure and hours of looking for lost balls. but in this cutthroat world that is a price you ' II just have to pay. 0

The MSCD Athletic Dept. along with the Auraria Book Center is sponsoring a $500 Fan Appreciation Scholarship Giveaway this fall.

To enter in the contest MSCD students can pick up an entry card at the book center or during the campus-wide distribution day on Sept. 4.

Every time a student goes to an event the card gets stamped. Once the card is filled with five stamps it can be turned in for the drawing, which takes place at the MSCD basketball game on Dec. 4. There is no limit to the number of entries. Baseball notes

Outfielder Brendon Peach, a junior last year, was named to the all-Central region first-team, and was honored as a thirdteam All-American. Peach finished 10th in the nation in batting average at .438, and was eighth in home runs with 12.

Senior first baseman Jim Cluck was honored as a second-team all-Central region performer. He was sevenih in the nation in home runs with 14 and 10th in RBis with 55.

Coach Bill Helman also announced the signing of six Colorado high school standouts. Signed to letters of intent were Shannon Burney, Matt Nispel, R.J. Akers, Darryl Leaman, Chan Mayber and Matt Beds:.

MSCD coaching staff goes through changing of the guard Will Hinton Sports Editor

MSCD is introducing four new coaches to its staff and saying goodbye to two more as the 1991-92 varsity season begins.

Taking over at the Auraria swimming pool will be Cynthia Kemp, who has accepted the head swimming coach vacancy left by the retired Steve Hadley.

Kemp, 32, has some big Speedos to fill. Replacing Hadley will be no easy task since, in the words of MSCD Director of Athletics Bill Helman, "He was the best (swimming coach) we ever had."

Kemp, who has years of club and high school coaching experience, is making a homecoming of sorts. She is leaving Southeast High School in Springfield, Ill. , where she was an assistant coach to come back to Colorado where she worked as an instructor for the Summit County School District from 1981-1989.

Verna J ulaton, a student assistant in 1990, has been officially promoted to assistant women's volleyball coach this year.

As the team's assistant coach, Julaton will also be taking care of the travel duties. Two-thirds of her responsibilities will be as a coach and the other third will be spent making sure the team gets from point A to

The 24-year-old Ross comes to MSCD from the University of Minnesota-Morris where he was an assistant coach. He will also be working as a weight training instructor for the athletic department.

Ross replaces graduate assistant Rodney Wecker, who left MSCD for Whitmore College in Spokane, Wash.

Wecker was also the coordinator of athletic development, but Ross will only be

taking over the coaching responsibilities. The athletic department is reviewing applications for the athletic development position.

The baseball team is also on the list of squads with a new coach. Pat Smaldone, 30, will be taking over as MSCD's pitching coach, a job vacated a year ago when Bob Dampier left for Littleton's Heritage High School.

Smaldone played and received a degree at MSCD. He spent five years as a coach at Denver's Lincoln High School, two as the head coach, from 1986-1990. 0

Soccer team looks to defend CAC title in ·fall Will Hinton Sports Editor

Repeating as a champion is undoubtedly one of the toughest things to accomplish in all of sports.

It is also a challenge that any team or coach would be glad to be burdened w·ith.

In 1991, Head Men's Soccer Coach Dennis Daly and his MSCD Roadrunners find themselves in just such a position.

The 'Runners are coming off a 1990 season that saw them post a 13-5-1 record and win the first ever Colorado Athletic Conference Championship.

Daly, entering his third year as head coach, is confident that his squad has the ability to equal last year's success, so he has set some lofty goals for '91.

"Of course, we want to return as CAC champs," he said. "We have a strong schedule and we want to fare well against the California schools and hopefully secure an NCAA bid."

By bid Daly means a trip to the NCAA Division II playoffs, something that must be earned by reputation since the CAC champion is not automatically invited to the tournament.

In order to build that reputation Daly has come up with a tough schedule that has his team playing almost nonstop early in the

two weeks will make us or break us," he said. The Roadrunners return 14 lettermen and

eight starters from last year's championship team.

Of the returning players only two are outof-state products. "We have more players from the Denver-Metro area than any team in the state," said Daly, an Aurora product and former MSCD player.

Leading the way will be tri-captains Kent Nelke, Mike Lockwood and John Talyat.

Nelke missed all of last year with a knee injury, but Daly thinks his presence this season will be a key to the team's success.

"(Nelke) is a big, strong team leader," Daly said, addin!; that the senior, who will split time at defender and midfield, relies on his intellegence as much as his athletic ability.

Joining Nelke in the backfield is Lockwood, a speedy senior who covers a lot of ground in what is the most vulnerable part of the field.

Along with junior goalie Mike Najar -a great athlete who Daly said, "flies around the goal"- Nelke and Lockwood provide the team with a strong defensive foundation.

"We havt< a strong defense so we are really looking to hold down our goals against average," Daly said.

Talyat, a senior midfielder, is a player who never loses his cool, a guy who doesn't

know the meaning of pressure. "(Talyat) is not easily shake~," said Daly,

adding that, "He is a team leader who knows how to get the job done."

Just knowing how to get the job done will be essential this year due to the loss of several key players. CAC player of the year Tim Yungergradu-atedandall-confer- Coach Dennis Daly ence performer Matt Okoh transfered to the University of Denver, leaving holes to be filled and causing several players, like Talyat and Nelke, to change positions.

Sophomore strikers Adam Smith and Leonard Trujillo are burners with excellent ball-handling skills, and now that they have a year of experience at the collegiate level Daly expects the offense to floursih in '91.

Other players who Daly said he sees as major contributers this season are seniors Chris Sloan and David Michael, sophomores Tim Evans and Rich Hintzman and freshmen Derek Scarth and Dave Adams.

The Roadrunners kick off the season Saturday Sept. 7 against the Colorado School of Mines at the Auraria athletic fields. The game will start at 2 p.m. and admission is free. 0

T he Soviet revolution is having a profound impact on the worid and

on the lives of all Americans. HowcantheWestconstructively respond to the fact that its once strongest and most threatening foe may now be its ally? Russia

Shakes the World is an attempt to answer that question, based on six months of interviews with key academics, writers, and political leaders - including Mikhail Gorbachev.

Hart's access to the inner chambers of Soviet government gives the book an unprecedented credibility and perspective. Some of the subjects these dispatches address are: the roots of perestroika ; the nature of the reforms themselves; whether this means the end of the Cold War; the fundamental policy decisions the U.S. must now face; what will happen if Gorbachev's movement fails; and whether an era of EastWest cooperation can really develop .

...,,,. Please be our guest on Tuesday, Sept. 17 when fonner senator Hart signs his book and speaks on the Gorbachev eraandcurrenteventsintheSovietUnion!

Russia Shakes the World is published by HarperCollins at $21.95
