Trustee says unconfirmed members OK to vote By Tim Fields and Lois Wymore Tbe Metropolitan

Only four appointed trustees of The State Colleges of Colorado are confirmed by the Senate, yet Colorado Jaw requires all seven to' be.

Colorado Revised Statutes, 23-50-102, authorizes the governor to appoint trustees, and receive advice and consent from the Senate.

The next trustee confirmations from the Senate are scheduled sometime after January 2000. The board of trustees, that oversees the operation of Metro and four other state colleges, has already

voted on action items affecting Metro. For example, in September, the board approved an increase of two course-related fees at Metro.

"The gap between appointment and confirmation does raise an interesting legal question. Are the trustees acting legally if they haven't been confirmed?" said Denver attorney William Croke. He asked what would happen if a trustee didn't get confirmed, could that jeopardize the validity of decisions he voted on?

Confirmed Trustee Dale Mingilton, chairman of the board, said there is no problem.

"We've been advised that it is legal for (trustees) to vote and conduct business," he said.

Mingilton said the board could operate because there are

enough members to constitute a quorum. A quorum is when a majority of duly appointed or elected board members are present at a meeting. The trustees' policy manual requires the trustees to meet this majority in order to validate any transaction of business or the taking of any action.

Croke said there is no simple answer to this question. Non-confirmed trustees are Robert Decker of Gunnison,James

Hamilton of Grand Junction and Ann Rice of Englewood. Confirmed trustees are Dale Mingilton of Lakewood, Helen

Atkeson of Denver, Wtlliam Martin and Ignacio Martine-z. Martin and Martinez have resigned, and only Martine-z will continue his duties until a successor is appointed.

Pedestrian death spurs investigation of the crosswalk timing Tbe Metropolitan

As the result of the fatal pedestrian/car accident at the intersection of Colfax Avenue and Lipan Street, an investigation is being conducted by the city of ·Denver regarding crosswajk timing

'The investigation will take about two weeks," Tracy Weiler, staff traffic sign engineer for the city of Denver said.

Weiler said the intersection signal timing was set in 1995 and the department would be happy to investigate.

RTD commuters and pedestrians on the scene expressed concern at how little time there was to cross Colfax Avenue.

''I'd rather not cross here. It's too dangerous and there is just not enough time," said Martin Pere-z, a 26-year-old Community College of Denver student. "I get stuck in the median most of the time."

According to Weiler, traffic crosswalk times are set by measuring the distance from curl> to curl> and dividing that number by four feet per second, which is the average time it takes for a person to walk four feet.

"The lead time at all crysswalks in Denver is a minimum of four seconds, that's when you see the little white guy. When he actually starts flashing is when the timing begins," she said.

The signal to cross Colfax Avenue has a four second lead time

with a 15 second walk time for a total of 19 seconds. Lipan St. has a 10 second lead time with a 35 second walk time.

Weiler said whenever the department receives a call or complaint it is standard for the intersection to be investigated and that a written report will be documented and a copy sent to the caller.

"If the measurement is wrong, it is a slam-Ounk and we'll change the timing right away. We will also check into the leftlane turn signal timing. There are ways to make it a little safer for pedestrians," Weiler said.

Documentary filn;unaker also an activist • TRENT, from p. 3 bodies between the U.S. bullets and the victims."

Trent has made one other documentary film Cover Up: Behind the Iran Contra Affair. In all three documentaries, her activism and willingness to speak out against the injustices in the world is apparent.

Trent got into documentary film making later in life, but she said she has always been an activist. One main influence that shaped her as an activist was her father and his tolerance and humanity towards all people.

Trent, her voice slightly cracking with emotion, illustrated her father's compassion with two anecdotes from her childhood.

Willy, a black women who worked for him at his wholesale food business. One day when Willy and Trent were loading food onto a client's truck, the client told her father he didn't want a "nigger" touching his food.

Her father said, "John, if you've got a problem with Willy loading your food, then

you gotta' shop somewhere else." · Another incident which showed Trent her

father's compassion was during a truckers' strike. When her father's drivers were shot at crossing the picket line to deliver his products, he told them to honor the strike

''They put their bodies between the U.S. bullets and the

victims."

- Barbara Trent, Documentary Filmmaker

and go home because their lives were worth - more than his company. Trent said her father

always did what was right and this had a tremendous impact on her.

Trent began her activism during the

Vietnam war protests of the 60's and has continued throughout her life. During her lifetime she organized a drug crisis intervention program which still exists in Illinois today. She worked with welfare mothers after becoming one herself. She developed programs to help small towns create community centers and projects to give teens in small towns something to do besides get into trouble.

Trent discussed the risks of becoming an activist in America. She said her activism has made her unpopular with the Government and the FBI. As a result of an intensive FBI investigation during the seventies, which led to a grand jury indictment of Trent, she and her son had to move from Illinois to California. The charges turned out to be trivial, but as a result Trent learned that when people take a stand against powerful individuals, the risks are immense.

Nevertheless, she continued with her activism helping those who don't have a voice to be heard.

SGA vice president calls it quits after five months, applications being taken to fill the open position By lmtiaz Hopkins Tbe Metropolitan

Ftve months after taking office, Chuck Dugan, vice president of administration and finance with the Student Government Assembly is resigning.

"It has become frustrating," Dugan said. This comes one week after he submitted a

letter to The Metropolitan stating that he will resign Dec. 31.

Dugan said the letter came from his heart. In the letter, he said that his heart and soul were no longer in his actions as a vice president.

"I've grown a lot and I've done what I can," he said.

Dugan said that he was disappointed in the direction that SGA was heading. He also felt that SGA y.ras making some unhealthy financial decisions.

The letter echoes that he felt SGA was not taking its business seriously.

"They don't want to be held accountable for their actions," Dugan said.

SGA president Jennifer Darnell said that Dugan's position was a lot to handle and hard to balance, and you have to be passionate about it.

"He's really good in his position," Darnell said. ''This is a bump in the road and we will overcome."

SGA is now taking applications to fill this position. Darnell said that the applicants. will go through the interview process and when she finds the right one she will get feedback from the other members.

"I will not appoint someone until I have feedback from everyone," Darnell said.

Interested students should stop by the Student Government office in Tivoli 307.

Man pleads guilty in former professor's murder case By lee Robinson 1be Metropdilan

A 22-year-old Denver man pleaded guilty to manslaughter Oct. 21 in the brutal slaying of a former Metro professor.

On Jan. 9, Harold Eisenhuth was found bludgeoned to death in his Eldora home. Boulder sheriff's deputies arrested Matthew Garcia who had called police from a nearby house to report the incident. Garcia told authorities he hit Ei.5enhuth with a hammer because he thought Eisenhuth was going to sexually assault him.

Garcia agreed to a plea bargain on Oct. 21 in which the initial charge of second-degree murder was dropped in exchange for guilty pleas to manslaughter and drug-possession counts. Garcia could range from probation to 16 years in prison.

On Jan. 9, Eisenhuth went to his niece's home in Denver where he found Garcia sleeping on the couch. He asked Garcia to go for a ride, according to prosecutors, and took him to hi.5 Eldora cabin. Eisenhuth locked the door and pocketed the key, then after the two watched television for several minutes he got up and locked himself in the bathroom.

When Eisenhuth finally emerged, Garcia told prosecutors, he was naked and tried to sexually as.5ault Garcia. Investigators said Eisenhuth was bludgeoned on the head 11 times with a hammer Garcia found in a tool box in the living room. Traces of cocaine were found in the blood stream of both Garcia and Eisenhuth.

Harold Eisenhuth was a tenured criminal justice professor at Metro up until his suspension in 1997. The suspension resulted from complaints that he didn't show up for his classes.

Patrick shared his experiences on being di.5abled, overcoming obstacles, and partici­pating in the Paralympic Games. Patrick is a champion cyclist and won the silver medal in 1996. He dealt with childhood violence and lost his left leg in a drunken-driving accident in 1978.

Theft of newspapers only robs students

0 NEWS: More than 4,000 copies of 1be Metropolitan were removed from Auraria newsstands Oct. 28 and 29.

0 VIEWS: Why the papers were taken remains unclear, but their removal deprived readers of news and information.

Because the newspapers were all taken, many people did not get their weekly news, information and opinion pieces ..

For example, there was a story about the Colorado State Legislature's new measurements of Metro's academic success. They could hurt the college financially.

There was a story about a man who was killed in an accident at Colfax Avenue and Lipan Street. This story provided students with information about the dangerous intersection.

There was an editorial about the Eco Pass becoming available. It praised faculty, staff and administrators at Auraria campus who fought for a low<ost bus pass for non-students. The pass will free up parking spaces for those who choose to drive.

Two stories about Dia De Los Muertos, Day of the Dead, provided an educational perspective of Chicano-culture. It was an important story that impacted the campus community, because it explained unique aspects of the holiday.

Fortunately, the paper is published on the

Web. Anyone who wants to read the stories from the missing Oct. 29 printed edition can get it at http://clem.mscd.edu/-themet/Vol _22 _fall9'J _ issuel l/.

The person(s) responsible for taking the newspapers robbed the campus population of the opportunity to get a printed issue of 7be Metropolitan. Someone stole the chance for ·

students, faculty and staff to gather information. The community didn't get to read, think or discuss pertinent campus issues.

The cost of the Oct. 29 issue was. $3,000. The money for printing, worker's salaries advertising and other costs was lost along with the newspapers. The removal of 7be Metropolitan hurt the newspaper financially, but the readers'

lost more. Students lost the chance to learn about important campus events and news.

In every issue of The Metropolitan controversial stories appear. These stories anger some readers and overjoy others. The person/s responsi>le for taking the Oct. 29 issues robbed 35,000 people on this campus the freedom to form their own opinions about these stories.

Coverage of pedestrian death 'distasteful' .:::iw~de8.I'9ditor.

As family and friend of the victim hit by the car your paper covered in the Oct. 29 edition, we would like to express our outrage over the insensitivity and disrespect the reporters showed in the article.

The photograph on the front page is distasteful and should not have been used to publicize the paper. The paper should have allowed the victim and his family

privacy and respect. We would also like to comment on the

paragraph that described what the victim looked like as he lay in the street. The reporters did not have to go into detail and make the scene of the accident something to be'gloating about.

It is sad to realize that our student newspaper does not have the decency or

class to report on a tragedy without turning it into a gory article. In the future, we ask the reporters and editors to have a little more consideration for victims and the family of the victims when reporting a story.

Metro's Wiccan believers beat other religions to the local bulletin board

After a call from a Metro graduate who had consider any other explanation for the material been a student of mine, I spent a lot of time last posted on that bulletin board. I was surprised week walking the halls of the campus. What I to learn that apparently the rather contentious was looking for was the other bulletin boards and ongoing arguments regarding separation devoted to diversity in .----------------.... · of church and state religion. So far I have generated by a few not been able to This courageous words mentioned locate the bulletin casually in the boards devoted to action will put Metro Constitution - and Christians, Jews, Bud- in the forefront of a litigated on and off dhists, Moslems or throughout the life of any of the other major great flowering of· the republic - had world religions. One diverse religious finally been resolved of the purposes of t.hi.5 beliefs. and that government letter is to seek resources and fac-assistance from any- ilities were now one who has seen available to promote these bulletin boards. d e n o m i n a t i o n a I I have found the one used to explain and support WJCcans; it was pretty easy to find on the wall outside CN212, but I just can't seem to find any of the others.

Oh, you didn't know there was a campaign of support for religious diversity on campus? ~. I didn't either, but I was hard put to

religious perspectives. This courageous action will put Metro in

the forefront of a great flowering of diverse religious beliefs. With the impediment of church/state separation requirements out of the way, state-supported religious information sources will be found on any corner, finally

giving its rightful place to the true foundation of public life. To be sure, there are a few procedural details still to be resolved. One that might cause some discord is the relative space and time devoted to the various religions, denominations and sects - and how it will be allocated. Will there be a proportionate sharing of resources, the historically weU established and multi-membered groups getting more time and wall-space than the recently developed and struggling believers? Maybe just an equal distribution of wall-space and resources among all the groups that apply. Who gets to go first? Well, we've already resolved that. The Wiccans are to be commended for getting their material in the public space before most of us were even aware that the Metro administration had decided to exhibit such an immediate and outstanding support for religious diversity.

But I still can't find any of the other bulletin boards!

Golden Key Honor society worth striving for

On Nov. 19, the Metro chapter of Golden Key National Honor Society will be holding their annual induction ceremony.

The myth about Golden Key is that it tends to be an elitist organization, however I have found that the opposite is true. During the past few months I have had the opportunity to get to know the organization and what its philosophy is all about. Golden Key not only promotes excellence in academics, but also in community involvement. During the fall semester, focus is maintained on community

building with participation in programs like Habitat on Humanity, 9Cares, Colorado Shares and the Colorado AIDS Walk. During the spring the organization focuses on activities that promote academics. This is when scholarships are awarded and conferenct! are held.

I recently attended a cookout sponsored by the chapter, titled "What's cookin' at Golden Key." This was an excellent opportunity to get to know exceptional students and faculty members around campus. I also had the opportunity to discuss Golden Key with

Chapter Consultant, Liane Soukup, and the Assistant Director of Chapter Development, Sandy Reinsch.

To be eligible for Golden Key, you must be in the top 15 percent of your class and have junior or senior status. Membership is by invitation only and benefits include academic recognition, career assistance and leadership opportunities. In my opinion, Golden Key is definitely worth striving for.

Mark Masuoka Sean W-flbe Metropolitan

Gallery director moves on-Masuoka joins staff at Museum of Contemporary Art/Denver

By Sean Weaver The Metroj)dita11

The Emmanuel Gallery director will leave at the end of the semester 10 become the director of the Museum of Contemporary Art/Denver.

Mark Masuoka, who began as director of the Emmanuel Gallery Nov. I last year, will star! his new position Jan. 1.

· "The hardest thing is leaving the campus," Masuoka said. "Some of the most talented young people I have known have worked for me here. That was encouraging for me."

Masuoka said he feels the Emmanuel Gallery is an imporrant part of the campus' culture.

"The three schools have to take the gallery more seriously," he said. "Seeing the potential of what is happening here will only benefit the students. It gives them a chance to see quality art."

Masuoka began his career in the art world as a sculptor. "I wasn't a good painter, so it was a pretty easy choice," he

said. "Painters and sculptors see things differently." Masuoka received his bachelor's degree in fine arts at the

University of Hawaii and his master of fine arts degree at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan.

"I always thought I would be a famous artist like every other student," he said. "I began as a sculptor because I

enjoyed building and creating. Now I'm building and creating programs."

Masuoka said his interest in the administrative side of the art world came from travelling to different schools and museums after graduate school.

"We traveled for almost three years," he said. "I started seeing another part of the art world.

"It's exciting to come up with a concept, figure out how to fund it and watch it grow," he said. "It 's just like creating art." From 1995 to 1998 Masuoka was the director for the Nevada Institute of eontemporary Art in Las Vegas.

''I'd save the perfect job situation, where you walk into a building with a $ 1 million budget, for a future life," Masuoka said. "Right now I'm looking for a challenge."

The Museum of Contemporary Art/Denver will supply the challenge Masuoka seeks. The museum opened in 1997 with

------ -

an exhibition titled A Collector's Vision. The exhibition featured work chosen from four Denver art collectors who loaned work to the museum. The museum moved to its present location in Sakura Square in September 1998.

"We're just delighted," said Sue Cannon, president of the museum. "Our mission is education and inspiration. He's had

quite a bit of education experience, and we've looked at some of his

past exhibitions and thought they were the type of things we would like to have here."

Masuoka said he would like to make the museum the finest of its

type in the region. "I think there is an interest in

contemporary art, and a lot of active support in the community," he said. "There's a real

potential here. (The museum) is a valuable niche." Denver artjst Dale Chisman sat on the museum search

committee that hired Masuoka. "I think he'll fit in quite well," Chisman said. "He has

innovative directions, and he is familiar with the community. I thought that was a plus in his favor. It 's too bad Auraria is losing him."

Jessica Kirkpatrick, left, and Amy Gibbs, right, perform a stretch to increase blood flow to the heart by laying on the floor and extending their legs up a wall in Tivoli 444. The stretch was part of a yoga class Oct. 21.

Students at Auraria can de-stress, relax and rejuvenate in free yoga classes.

Offered as part of an outreach program by the Student Health Center, the classes are part of Healthy Moves for Ftall 1999, a program offering a form of relaxation exercise once a week, said Llnda Wilkins-Pierce, health educator.

Hatha yoga is what most Westerners think of when they hear the word yoga. The physical postures or asanas of hatha yoga are just a small part of yoga. The asanas are a good place to begin, said Pat Hansen who has taught yoga at Metro for 20 years. Hansen started the hatha yoga class with Tadasana, or mountain pose, a seemingly simple standing pose. She first had the students bring their awareness to their feet. Then she worked upward, centering and aligning the body. Realigning the body readjusts the attitude, which is a posture of the mind, she said.

"The weight of the body belongs over the arch," she said, "be conscious of it all day, at the bank standing in line, at the store and waiting for the bus." Too m1,1ch weight on the heels creates an imbalance, contributing to TMJ. TMJ is a common jaw problem caused when the jaw muscles tighten in an effort to correct the imbalance, she said.

just practicing Tadasana faithfully, she said, can help problems as diverse as fallen arches,

bunions, bad knees, headaches, digestion and elimination.

Yoga develops our prana, a Sanskrit word for "life force," Hansen said. There is no Western word for prana, but it is the same as the Chinese chi. Prana, she said is not molecular or atomic, but a force beyond that.

The breath controls the flow of prana through the body. The mind controls the body, but the breath controls the mind, she said. Movement in the postures is coordinated with the breath.

Hansen urged the students to breathe all the way down to the tips of their toes, but through the nose only. Mouth-breathing increases mucus, over-stimulates the adrenal glands and

By Annie Prevost causes weight gain, she said.

As the students learned Cobra pose, which is done on the stomach, Hansen explained that they were toning their organs and glands from the inside out, squeezing out toxins stored in the tissues.

Practicing yoga empowers a person to learn how to care for his/her body and mind, said

Women advance to RMAC tournament By Nick Gamer 7be Metropolitan

The situation is the same, but the setting will be different. The Metro women's soccer team is back in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference

tournament for the second year in a row. They finished the regular season with a 13-6, 8-4 RMAC record. The Roadrunners squeaked into the RMAC tournament as the third seed.

Instead of traveling to Grand Junction like last year, the Roadrunners will be closer to home. They will travel to nearby Regis and will be able to have most of their fans at the game.

'1JI the parents said that we had to win Sunday," said senior midfielder Kari Pierce. "If we didn't win, most of the parents could not make it down to Fort Lewis, so it would have been us versus them and their rans."

Al Regis, the Roadrunners will not have to worry about traveling for six hours in a van to Grand Junction.

"We knew what we had to do, and that was win this game," said junior midfielder Janice Annstrong. ''This game was more important than the last time we played them because we didn't want to have to drive back down there this weekend. ~wanted either us or Regis to host."

Metro will open the RMAC tournament against Fort Lewis Nov. 5 at 1:30 p.m. The Roadrunners faced them just a week ago and won in overtime, 2-1. The winning goal was an own goal, with credit given to Pierce, in the extra period. ,

With the victory, the Roadrunners avenged a 2-1 loss earlier in the season to Fort Lewis at the Auraria Fields.

"There was more on the line for us this time," said coach Ed Montojo. "We wanted to make a statement to them (Fort Lewis) early on."

Both teams have highly explosive offenses, boasting four of the RMAC's top 10 scoring ~ leaders.

Fort Lewis is lead by Carisa Bradford, who leads the conference with 36 total points. The Roadrunners counter with the trio of Pierce, Armstrong and senior Tarena O'Neill. The three have combined to score 80 points, the most for any scoring trio in the conference.

On defense, Fort Lewis and Metro have two of the best keepers in the RMAC. For the Roadrunners, senior goalkeeper Kelly Johannes was the best in the

conference during the regular season. She allowed 14 goals past her all season, recorded 40 saves and h;td a conference low 1.06 goals against average.

The Skyhawks' goalkeeper is the third best in the RMAC. Charlori Cotter has recorded 102 saves in the regular season, four shutouts and a 1.41 goals against average.

This will be a game of who can outscore the other team, which is something the Roadrunners can do.

If the Roadrunners pass Fort Lewis, they will meet up with Regis in the championship game.

In Regis' case, they hope that Fort Lewis can beat Metro. The Rangers have dominated Skyhawks all season, winning both games convincingly 3-1 and 4-1.

The Roadrunners scored both their goals in the first half, improving on the keys to a victory in the

RMAC tournament, said coach Brian Crookham.

"We need absolute composure," Crookham said. "We need to stay in the game mentally for 90 minutes and have the confidence to win. Today was a good step towards doing that."

Although the game against the Mountain Lions guarantees the Roadrunners a shot at the University of Southern Colorado, the No. 1 seed in the conference tournament, there is still work to be done, Crookham said.

"We're going to work on mistakes, iittle things that kiU us," he said. "We have to mentally prepire to go in there."

Not only will the Roadrunners have to prepare for USC but their fans too. The Thunderwolves earned the right to host the RMAC tournament with a 10-2 record in the conference. Metro has to prepare to face a team that has beaten them in both meetings

Meeting the Metro men's and women's basketball teams, winning $10,000 and eating free food is one way you could spend Nov. 9.

Nov. 9 is the day the Roadrunners are hosting "Metro Madness" in the Auraria Events Center. The event, from 12:15 p.m. to 1 p.m., will include free food, contests and prizes, including a shot at Sl0,000. '

Free food will be served from the concession stand in the Auraria Events Center after the contests, which include the 'J\irplane Tos.s" and "Pick-a-spot-shot." Both offer cash prizes, $20 for the ''.ljrplane Tos.s" and Sl0,000 for the "Pick-a-spot-shot."

The name of one "Metro Madnes.s" attendant will be drawn to participate in the "Pick-a-spot­shot" contest. That person can choose one spot on the court to shoot from. If the first basket is made, then from the very same spot the person must make the basket at the other end of the court. If the contestant makes both shots, the $10,000 is theirs, said Brent Rhodes, development and marketing director for the Athletics Department.

Student Athletes honored by department Four Metro athletes recently received Athlete-of-the-Month honors from the Athletics

Department. Seniors Kari Pierce and Jared Zanon were named the Athletes-of-the-Month for September.

Pierce has 11 goals, 13 assists and 35 points this season. Both the assists and points are a team high. Zanon also leads the men's team in two offensive categories. His-seven goals and 18 points are a team best. ?.anon has four assists on the season.

Senior Chris Brink and freshman Edouard von Herberstein earned the athlete honors from the Athletics Department for October. Brink leads the Roadrunner volleyball team with 18 solo blocks and 91 total. ~he also has 299 kills on the season, which is second on the team.
