Editorial NEWS ANALYSIS

by Frank Mullen

The propsed merger- of Metropolitan State College (MSC) and the University of Colorado at Denver (UCD) is dead - but like the biblical Lazerus it will soon return.

Enough Republican legislators joined Denver Democrats May 9 to kill the 323-page bill, which had already been "trashed" by amendments. State Senator Hugh Fowler, the bill's author, was angered by the Senate action, saying he worked on the bill for "ten years."

Fowler has opposed the Auraria experi­ment for over five years.

In 1975, when Auraria was under con­struction, Fowler told Empire Magazine the new education center was going to be

' "a tremendous money sponge." Fowler said the center "in jamming to·

gether all the students who heretofore have been carefully classified academically" would force "the standards to go down to meet the standards of the least qualified

students." Since then, Fowler has kept a close eye

on Auraria problems as a member of the Senate Education Committe: He found the main problems have nothing to do with academics. The 169 acre campus is governed by four separate boards, and as the Auraria Board's Bain Committee reported, there are problems with duplication and coordin­ation of services. ''Turfism" abounds at · Auraria, and Fowler maintains nothing short of radical changes can solve campus problems.

Fowler envisioned a Metropolitan State University at Auraria - a "super-duper busi­ness school" he called it. His opponents attacked the plan as "elitist" and contrary to the role and mission of MSC.

The bill is dead for this session of the legislature, but the problems in manage­ment still exist. Those legislators who voted against the- bill this time may change their minds the next time around if Auraria does not make the internal changes necessary to

was at 1hat meeting and Dave Haldeman once stated maybe a mistake had been made. That error was not spending fifty to one hundred dollars to print up con­stitutions for all candidates. That would have been a decision made by the election commission and not Dave Haldeman. As a member of the SAC I would of had prob­lems approving that kind. of money for comtitutions most people would not read, as we do not squander student fees.

The constitution states that the Presi­dent will appoint a Judicial Branch. It does not state when or give a time limit, and it was not necessary until just last week. If it was that necessary. why didn't.the previous president, Emerson Schwartzkopf, appoint the Judicial Branch? The Judicial Branch was created while he was in office!

Also, setting up your staff member for the picture stating "Secret Ballot?" was biased. Everyone could vote as they saw fit, even secretly if they wanted to. To set up one of your staff members to vote for

. the camera and then print the picture was stupidity. I voted secretly but if I wanted to I had the option of letting everyone know who I voted for . If your staff mem­bers wanted to that is their problem.

Finally, I would like to warn all students that you had better be careful about w~t is said while Emerson Schwartzkopf is present. It might be taken out of context or misquoted. And, if Emerson wants to editorialize it should be in the editorial

make the experiment work. Even Sen. James Kadledcek, the Greeley

Democrat who introduced the sweeping amendment deletion (which, Fowler said, defeated the purpose of SB-523), said his action did not "preclude the possibility of a merger."

Several Senators said they voted against the bill because it was simply too late in the session to consider a bill which made so many sweeping changes.

House Bill 1498, now in the Senate Education Committee, is the "back-up" bill for Auraria. The bill requires the Coloradp Commission on Higher Education (CCHE) to make reconuriendations to the Legislature concerning Auraria's future by February 1980. The CCHE has gone on record in support of a merger - and, unless significant progress is made in negotiations between the two institutions, the CCHE will probably recommend a merger again.

Committees composed of representa­tives frm Auraria's institutions are back at

section, not as front page news.

Thank you,

Robb Geesen, · Student Affairs Board

member and interested student.

In response to the 10 May 1979 article in The Metropolitan "ASMSC Elections In Doubt":

It has been J2 monthS since the last ASMSC Presidential- elections and the sour grapes have finally come out. In the May 10 article in The Metropolitan 'Emerson Schwartzkopf accuses Dave Haldeman and · myself of confessing error repeatedly.

I would like to point out a few "errors" in the article. First, if the Judicial Board

work trying to "consolidate, eliminate or jointly operate" duplicative programs and services. Negotiations attempted in the past ended in failure with the negotiators unable to reach a compromise on the main issues. If the negotiations break down this time the institutions may lose their last chance to solve Auraria problems internally and the legislature may force a solution down their throats.

The Senate's action May 9 was not the death knell of the merger;it merely got the legislature's attention. It was a beginning rather than an end.

At the moment the future of the campus is in the hands of the people who would be most affected by radical changes at Auraria. They now have the power to bury the merger if they so desire or, by revert­ing back to "turfism" become Fowler's strongest allies the next time the merger proposal comes to the attention of the lawmakers.

And there will be a next time.

The fact is that Emerson Schwartzkopf was writing to Emerson Schwartzkopf when the amend­ment went up for referepd,um.

-More ·Lefter·s~ · cont. from pg. 2 write a workable constitution. This would have been done but student government had too many external headaches this year to put the time into it.

Secondly, your picture of a young woman voting in front of the photographer" above the caption "ASMSC Elections: Secret Ballot?", was staged. The young woman, Sally Williams, a staff writer for The Metropolitan, chose not to keep her ballot a secret, but don't we all have that option'?

Turning to the elections, I think that it would be unfortunate for all concerned if the elections are contested in court but the Election Commission made their decision while in full possession of all the relevant facts and ASMSC will back up that deci­sion. I can't comment on a possibly pending civil action but ASMSC has been in contact with the Attorney General's office and I would be more than mildly surprised if a court would dectde in favor of the com­plainants. The only doubt about the elec­tions are who won and by how much and these doubts will be cleared up by the time this letter goes to print. One of the accom­plishments of this student government was to break up the clique that existed in the student government last year. Oiquishness in politics is undesirable, in journalism it is a disaster.

Associated Students of Metropolitan State College

Greg Gimelli President

In response to the May 11 letters of Gimelli and Geesen:

1) Perhaps "confessed error" is too harsh a term in some person's judgement, but both Greg Girnelli and Dave Haldeman cited examples where nothing was done (appointing a Judicial Board and other things) in areas where such duties, via the ASMSC Constitution, are the responsibility of the AS MSC President and Vice-President.

2) The person photographed on the front page of The Metropolitan on May 10 is indeed staff member Sally Williams. The photograph, though, is not staged - Ms. Williams is actually casting her ballot in the election. The point of the photograph is a documentation of the seemingly lack of concern by ASMSC to guarantee voters the right to a secret ballot - and this made the photograph newsworthy enough to place on the front page.

3) The argument that I, during my last month as ASMSC President in May 1978, should have appointed the ASMSC Judicial

·Board might have validity. However, to re­ceive such criticism from persons who were able to appoint and confirm the Judicial Board for the last 11 months is a cheap shot - and a poor excuse for ignoring duties clearly delineated to them last year.

Emerson Schwartzkopf

Editor:

I would like to inform the general pub­lic as well as Mr. Bito about the real ideology behind the women artists that are known as Les Femmes Criminelles. Each member has their own sentiments as to why they became involved in this project in which the main goal was artistic aware­ness. I balked at Mr. Bito's contention that LFC was faculty inspired. No teacher had any involvement with the group's activities whatsoever. A majority of the negative re­sponse we have received to date has been elicited from faculty as well as the student body. Seemingly everyone has all but raised their level of consciousness to try and understand our true essence. As a gang of women artists, and I reiterate ARTISTS, all of our undertakings have been in the realm of creative expression and art state­ment. From its onset, LFC was never meant to be interpreted as destructive, malicious or otherwise deleterious in any way. Although our name connotes a malev­olent nature (The Women Criminals), we decided on a name that would express the boldness of our concepts. Our major en­mity is aimed toward the fascist elements found in the politics of art today, in par­ticular those in existence at Metro State College. A woman artist seems to receive no recognition despite her serious efforts unless she is sitting comfortably in the front row seats reserved for the "chosen few." Even sadder, this state of affairs is not restricted to wooien only. Minorities, as well as men, are often treated in this manner. Through different modalities of artistic expression (graphics, conceptual and performance art and sculpture), con­scious of the urban atmosphere of our campus, LFC has been striving to make the populas of the Aurarian territory aware of. more than just sterile halls and asphalt

parking lots. The negative response has been almost unbearable and equally dis­heartening. Verbal abuse has inundated our senses. Our grades have been threatened, dangled in front of our· noses like a treat offered to an untrainable pet. Selected in­cidents of vandalism and general pernicious behavior have been blamed on us. Even Mr. Bito's article, illustrating his insipid knowl­edge of art, was perceived as another LFC "prank". When people can ,accept art as something other than a painting that matches their sofa size and color of their living room and when students learn that compromising their creative expression to win the approval of an instructor is a worthless attempt at artistic esteem, then extremist groups such as LES FEMMES CRIMIN ELLES will no longer be necessary.
