CU's secret merger plan divulged by Richard Bellizzi ·

~ The discovery of a confidential CU Regents plan for the eventual takeover of MSC has c~ught the regents with their hands in the· Auraria cookie jar.

The three-phase plan, drafted I by UCO administrators and

presented to the Regerits Jan. 20, details how the regents hope to first join forces with the Trustees of State Colleges, MSC's govern-

- ing board, to abolish AHEC. That accomplished, the regents would then lobby the Legislature to approve a merger under the regents' governance.

The plan's introduction ~ establishes the regents' attitude

that AHEC, originally designated manager of the campus for the three institutions, has become too involved in their management,

- t thus "obscuring the differences between the . schools, com­plicating operations, reducing management efficiency and

- reducing Regent management · prerogatives."

ed approach, the first phase being cooperation between the regents and the trustees for a "clustered ·college arrangement," the plan cites its short-term benefits as "improving distinctive image of UCD ," "counteracting Denver area opinion of Regents as elitist and not interested in Denver education," "allowing for more CU control of budget and person­nel decisions," and "providing some access to auxiliary

,; In stremng the value of a phas- '

accounts." The plan then elaborates on

"Phase 3 - Merger under the Board of Regents as the Ultimate Goal."

In disctming "merger as in­evitable solution," the plan changes and discounts the cluster college concept, stating "public colleges ... will not be able to over­come competitive interests (space, FI'E, equipment, etc~)," "public (legislature) will still perceive

,? e

duplication of programs," and "cluster college concept will waste · funds by forcing com-: promise decisions."

Also, "phased approach allows CU to avoid (postpone) public debate; eliminates poorly inform­ed participants as long as pomble by showing good faith attempt to make AHEC work, and allowing public to observe through ex­perience that merger is best solu­tion."

Furthermore, "because of similarities in academic pro­grams, maXimization of quality will only be achieved through CU leadership and gradual elimina­tion of weak programs."

The plan endorses merger as a "move to quality for CU," since "we wouldn't accept (i.e., keep) all MSC programs; merger would -include some transfer of programs to Community College; some pro­grams would be eliminated over time," and "in short run, poor faculty quality might be a pro­blem; but with creation of CU . standards and attrition, poor faculty problem will be gone in

., From the video arcade to the classroom to Time's Machine of the Year, computers are America'sJatest pas­sion.

But for Auraria students, can their passion for systems and software translate into careers in the world of big iousiness? . The answer to this and other questions will be addressed in a panel discussion, "Meeting the Challenge: Computers and Business and Education in the '80s." The goal of this discussion is to unders­tand the needs of the Denver business 1.'0mmunity for computer awareness at all levels, and to understand what public higher education in the Denver Metro area is doing and must do to meet these needs.

. Keynote speaker and moderator for }he discussion will be Dr. Lee Kerschner, executive director of the Col­orado Commission for Higher Educa­tion, who will preside over a panel of ex­perts from the areas of business and education. E;rnest Pearce, a partner in Deloitte, Haskins and Sells; Larry Eckblad, Manager of Information Systems, Colorado National Bank; and John H. Porter, Division Manager, Mountain Bell, will represent the­business world.

Representing higher education's point L of view' will be Dr. Richard Fontera, -'President, MSC, Leon Osterweil, Chair­

man of the Computer Science Depart­ment in C1Ys College of Engineering, and Dean Ben Franckowiak from the Graduate School of Librarianship and Information Management, University of Denver. : The group responsible for organizing this distinguished panel is Dr. Warren Kuehner's Data Processing Management Class, CMS 451, and the MSC Student Chapter of the Association for Com­puting Machinery.

f' -----

· president of the Association for Com­puting Machinery, helped recruit the panel, and feels that the Auraria campus is very "computer aware." The in­dustrial age is over, and tlie age of the brain is here," Oliver said, and "a basic knowledge of computers is needed for success in the business world."

Judging by the number of business and computer majors at Auraria, Oliver's opinion that the School is "com­puter aware" is almost an understate­ment.

According to the Academic Computer Center, between 2,000 and 2,600 students used the center's 45 terminals last semester as part of their business and computer classes. According to A.C.C. Manager Marc Fallcenhan, the number of students will increase by 500 or more over the next semester. · To become one of the many students to take advantage of the Academic Computer Center, one of two r.e­quirements must be met: you 1!1Ust be currently enrolled in a business or com­puter class, or have a business or math prof~r·s permission. The center is open Monday to Friday, from 7 a.m. to 9p.m.

Since most Auraria students are not knowledgeable in the ways of a com­puter, what po some students see big business offering business or math ma­jors graduating from college?

Tere Marcell, another member of ~e Data Processing Management team which helped to bring . business and education together in the panel discus­sion, thinks computer awareness in­creases an employee's value. .

"What employers are looking for is employees who are more computer aware and will cut back company time spent in on-the-job training."

Oliver agrees with Marcell. "Most schools have enough computers

I to where bwiness feels schools can train a large number of students prepared to deal with computers on a day to day basis."

Larry Eckblad, a member of the business panel, and manager of Infor­mation Systems for the Colorado Na­tional Bank, feels that computer educa• tion is good, but "businesses still have computer training programs for current employees, some of which might' be too specialized for basic computer courses."

Eckblad, as well as many others in the worlds of business and education, feels the day is coming soon when computers will be a required course of study, along with math and English.

But for now, the idea of bringing the best of local education and business was the brainstorm of Dr. Warren Kuenher's Data Processing Management class. Dr. Kuehner assigned a class project and the class, whose previous areas of study were on how to motivate an employee and how to write a correct .resume, went out to find a group of professionals to tallc about a subject that interested them the most - computers.

When the class was determining the goals of the project, three questions that will be asked of the panel came up as well as business and education questions

in general.

First, how much computer awareness should a future employee have to make it in the business world? Second, do higher educational institutions have the resources to provide decent training for the student, and finally, are colleges meeting the needs of business and the in­dividual in the area of computer awareness?

The first two questions are easy to answer. Everyone involved with the 'business, math and computer fields con­veys the impression that at Auraria, computer awareness is high and increas- . ing, and this naturally reflects that the resources are here and available to an,one who is interested. To the last question, Association of Computing Machinery President Beth Oliver can answer. As to whether colleges are meeting Beth Oliver's needs -

"I feel that Metro has provided me with a background in computers which is necessary to have in this fast growing area of big business," she declared.

"Meeting the Challenge: Computers and Business and Education in the 80s will take place at St. Cajetan's Center,

·Feb. 9, at 7 p.m. The discussion is free to the public, and questions to the panel from the audience are welcome. 0

A new program - Friends of Interna­tional Students - was created under the co-sponsorship of the Shared Ministry Team of St. Francis Intedaith Center arid the Office of International Student Services in September 1982. The pur­pose of this program is to enable foreign students to learn American life, relax their loneliness, and promote friendship

"This program is for foreign students," said Christine Xavier, who is in charge of ·this program. "Sometimes they feel lonely, and sometimes they miss their family. They want to be in the atmosphere of home. This program will help them."

Of the 29,000 students on the Auraria Campus, 1,500 are from countries

"This program is for short-term , hospitality, not for housing." "The students can have somethij)g to do with the host families for a month, six mon­ths, or a year. , It depends on the rela­tionship between host families and students: Host families will invite them to dinner, birthday parties, things like 4:

that. Also, they will offer informal meals, mountain jaunts, backyard barbeques and other social events.

"How many times in a month? It depends on the students and the host families, and their relationship. The students can understand American life " style and American culture through these processes more clearly."

"Our host families are made up of the church members - Methodist Church, Presbyterian Church, United Church of Christ, Catholic Church, and so on. ~ They are interested in foreign students. They can learn various cultures and dif­ferent customs through foreign students. We have 20 host families now, and we . are arranging for one or two students ' per host family. Now 20 students are in contact with host families. I think they enjoy friendship with their host families. · They are from China, Indonesia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and so on," Xavier said.

Because this program is for helping foreign students, any foreign students that want to be in the host family pro­gram will be welcome. If he or she is a student in the Denver area, the center can offer him or her a host family. There is no cost involved.

"In order to be in the host family pro­gram, no special procedure is necessary. The only procedure is to contact us," Xavier said. "SOmetimes Diane Mac­Donald, who works at the Intedaith Center at Auraria, helps the students. She is deeply interested in the program."

"We have a problem." Xavier said. "All of the students who want host families are men. We don't have any women. Some host families want women. We expect women to par­ticipate in this program actively," she said.

Fontera urges expanded · programs by Mark Lapedus

MSC President Richard Fontera told members of the education community

# that the general education requirements at MSC should be expanded and geared to a student's major and that workshops should be established for the faculty to explore teaching and learning methods.

In a speech Jan. 25 at St. Cajetan's Church, Fontera expressed his observa-

• tions concerning the need to evaluate MSC requirements.

"I would think that we could begin to create a learning ex~rience in which English composition was not the only specific course held in common by our college graduates," he said.

• Fontera expressed his concern that students are not always exposed to the relationship between their majors and human understanding.

"A careful and sensitive consideration of what all of our future students learn

• here at Metro, our contributions to their general education, is, I believe, critical to our future ~ucational excellence," he

said. Therefore, the requirements in

general education can be flexible, meeting the needs of the individual stu­dent in his particular major ..

He suggested that a student majoring in the social sciences might have specific requirements in the humanities and sciences while a student in science would have a different framework of classes.

"I believe it is possible to relate general education to the specific choices of major," Fontera said.

Fontera also said a newly formed general education committee, under the leadership of MSC biology professor George Becker, is committed to explore any "proposals for change."

Fontera also emphasized that there is high quality teaching at MSC.

"I believe that I am now associated," he said, "with an institution where the general concern for teaching excellence is far greater than any of the other five institutions where 1 have worked since 1959. "Met~'s faculty continues to impress

are generous and sociable in my view, ' and the host families too," she said.

.. "We will have a party in the lounge of

the St. Francis Interfaith Center from 9 · a.m. to 10:30 a.m., Feb. 11. Any foreign student is welcome. It will be a special event," Avier said.

"Almost all the students who are in the host family program are going to be there. We will talk about how the host families are and what the students want, but we seldom have the opportunities where the host families and students can

~ meet altogether in the same place and at the same time, because they live here

and there, and because it is difficult to decide when to have a meeting. Usually we have one on one meetings," she said.

"We need some new students and host families. We Will welcome them any time, and we will try to serve them effi­cient\v ."Xavier said.

"Friends of International Students" is only five months old; therefore, it is not well known by the students, but it is becoming more active. It is located in the St. Francis Interfaith Center (Room 7). If you are interested in this program, you can call Diane MacDonald (623-2340) or Christine Xavier (777-1266)J 0

most observers with its devotion .to students."

But he warned that education should remain "people-centered" rather than relying on technological advances to repla® the human concern for students.

Since learning is .a transaction of ideas between teacher and student, he stressed the need to have workshops for the faculty that explore approaches to teaching and learning.

The workshops will be set up no later than next fall, when the funds come from the recently established Rachel Noel Chair. ·

"It is essential that our academic com­munity take necessary steps to increase the degree to which faculty are en­couraged to share with each other their experience and capacities to motivate our students," he said.

Fontera also pointed out that "as we seek to further extend our educational impact, we cannot forget the many cultural elements that are such a distinc­tive part of our college."

He stressed we must be sensitive to the "cultural heterogenei" at MSC along with an awareness of humanistic and scientific tradition.

One of the ways to achieve this "sen­sitivity" is through a· solid general education background. Thus, it not on­ly provides an awareness, but a means

"We should aim for nothing less than a future for our students that involves both a potential for jobs and the basis for careers." 0

When she talks about kids from alcoholic homes Black doesn't discuss them in reference to the alcoholic per­son, she talks about the non-alcoholic parent as well, because many times the consequences are about both relation­ships, not just the one.

With childen of alcoholics there is a need to identify alcoholism as a primary issue in children's lives.

E'or children in an alcoholic home the lack of control over their own lives is the most crippling aspect.

"I think the powerlessness, the helplessness, is the most debilitating symptom of children of alcoholics," Black said.

Black identifies processes which occur in an alcoholic home as a result of three unspoken laws: Don't Talk, Don't Trust, Don't Feel.

Don't Talk: The family law is not to

talk about the real problems. Children don't talk because they fear they won't be believed, according to Black. They don't trust that their perceptions are ac- ' curate and will be confirmed.

"They do not-feel they can survive or protect themselves from the p'ain," she said. "Children of alcoholics are most resistant to talk about the guilt and the anger.

,» . •

They don't trust the process of talking because they didn't have support systems. Seventy percent didn't utilize friends while 58 percent talked some with the family. Eighty nine percent never tallced to neighbor's parents and 90 percent never confided in school per­sonnel.

Black said children don't perceive others, inside or outside the family, to be available for help. They feel totally alone and believe talking to someone won't help.

Twenty-five million children under age I I live in homes where they are sex­ually abused. Some studies show that 59 percent of known incest victims live in homes where alcohol is a major pro­blem·.

Don't Trust: Children don't have any reason to trust; they have also learned it is simply best not to trust others will be there for them - emotionally, psychologically and possibly even physically.

They don't feel safe because physical and emotional needs aren't being met; feeling safe is feeling secure. Black con­tends that children are confronted with reasons not to trust.

"Children raised in alcoholic homes do what they can to bring stability and consistency· into their lives," Black said.

..

"The alcoholism field has access ta kids whose parents_ seek help; most alcoholics do not get sober.'' .

"And I think we -have very little insight ... as we make our decisions

"I'm reaching to the pain of a very little child ... it has never been softened, ... never been lightened. " -· at a very young age.

-r1owledge to the. world of alcoholism

Children feel guilt for causing their parent's alcoholism._ They also feel guilt because they cannot remedy the pro­

...lJlem. Simultaneous love and hate emo­tions for a parent also cause guilt.

- Don't Feel: "It has been my experience that by the time a child being raised in an alcoholic family reaches the age of pine he has a well-developed denial system about both his feelin~ his perceptions of what is happening in the home," Black said.

"In my work with young children," Black explained, "I found the majority of them tended to adopt one or a com­

r>bination of the following three roles_ -the responsible one, the adjuster, the placater." - -The responsible child becomes his own parent as well as parenting siblin~ and parents. This child seeks stabilized, goal-oriented activities and manipulates people in a positive way. The oldest or an only child very often becomes the responsible one in the family. This child takes.responsibility for the environmen­tal structure in the home and provides consistency for the others. Control equals survival.

-The adjusting child can detach, play with pets, just not come home. A nondescript child, he doesn't draw any attention to himself. This child doesn't learn he has the right to make decisions, have protection or question authority. ,.The child called the adjuster finds it much easier to exist in this increasingly chaotic family situation by simply ad­justing to whatever happens.

- The placater takes the pain out of the home. This child does not learn he has needs . or how to identify them. .Smiling and taking care of everyone, the placater has no access to his own anger. This child will spend his early and adolescent years trying to "fix" the sadness, fears, angers and problems of brothers, sisters and certainly of mom and dad.

The acting out child displays delin­quent behavior which illustrates the state of the family. This child is usually first recognized for treatment.

"But whatever the roles, there are emotional and psychological gaps in ~evelopmental growth," Black pointed out.

Daetwiler corraborates this view. "In a healthy family you can i_tlentify

the patterns, but it's free-flowing," Daetwiler said. "It's the rigidity of the alcoholic family that locks people into tlieir roles.

"Along with rigidity, the major dysfunction of an alcoholic family is the inability to allow feeling or expression of feeling," he said. "Most meshed families will describe themselves as a close-knit family - they're so close they can't move, they're frozen."

Black says denial builds walls of self. protection - these c;hildren learn cop­ing mechanisms to protect themselves from the fear of reality. The reality is

alcoholic home," she said, "they had said to themselves and other people they were going to make sqre they didn't end up ·like their old man or their mother ... and they really meant that, and I knew it.

"What happens to kids who are raised in alcoholic homes is that they end up being extremely responsible," Black said, "and sometimes they have a com­bination of also being strong caretakers in that they take .care of the emotional needs of the family."

As much as they appear to do well, ac­cording to Black, they have limited resources. Emotionally they are limited - they are depressed, their self-image is . poor. They have coped on a daily basis and they deserve more than just the ability to survive.

because that pain has never been dealt ·with. It has never been touched. It has never been softened, it has never been lightened," Black said.

Being raised in an· alcoholic home can also influence career choices.

"I think there are lots of kids raised in dysfunctional families," Black said, "particularly if they take on the com­bination of being responsible and caretaking, who are just sort of guided into a he~ping profession.

"People invariably say, 'You'd make a wonderful social worker, you s~ould be a doctor,' or 'you'd be a wonderful nurse,'•• Black pointed out. "And what you find today are people in helping professions and many of them do come from dysfunctional homes, many from alcoholic families.

alcoholics, psychotics and other disorders. He also suggests initiation of available counseling in this area on cam­pus.

"For campus and treatment centers throughout Denver, it would be beneficial- to introduce this important new concept into the treatment of repetoire," Milkman said.

The Human Services Department of­fers two courses that deal with family alcoholism, according to Daetwiler.

"We have two courses: the family functioning course (HSW 204) is more general but does not exclude the alcoholic family, while Alcoholic Fami­ly Counseling (HSW 390) is theoretically a combination of Black and Wegscheider." .

"As a kid in an alcoholic home, if "And I think we have very little in-you're· extremely responsible and ex- sight into that as we make our decisions · tremely carefaking, you give up a whole at a v~ry young age," Black said.

Black would like to see the thin~ she has put into place continue to be utiliz­ed. She agrees with Milkman that issues around kids and alcoholism need to be expanded to other arenas because the alcoholism field will never have access to most of the kids.

faster than anything else. It's one of the dangers of adulthood. The lon~er I stay in one place, at the same job, watching the same TV shows, the more I tend to foster that delusion: master of my fate. The notion is patently dangerous because I swell with pride at every new accomplishment, then plunge into depression at the first sign of failure.

Not being a fool, rm generally content with my delusion so long as things are going my way, but as .soon as it looks like I might have to shoulder the psychic responsibility for some massive failure, I quickly bring chance back into play in my life, turning everything upside down. I rearrange furniture, grow a beard; I take long walks in strange parts of the city. Soon, the hand of coincidence starts moving events through my life, and I feel a mystical contentment.

whatever it might be, it was only to raise money for another trip to Las Vegas. As good friends as we've become, there are no addresses, no phone numbers, no arranged meetings involved.

At that point, I became angry. It seems odd that CU would contemplate the takeover of Metro, when it has been demonstrated in the past, present and the foreseeable futlire that Metro has been serving a need. That need which is met by MSC is to provide an educational environment with emphasis 'on the open­door policy.

Must I remind CU of the legislators' original intent in creating MSC? It was to create an institution for higher learning which would serve the needs of the working person, and a commitment to adhere to an open-door policy.

CU does not and cannot fill that need! The News stated that CU has already begun to make

their &Mault on both AHEC and Metro. According to the News, CU claims that the "Board of Regents (is) the solution which will best serve the interest Of metropolitan Denver."

I have one question to ask the Regents: What factual documentation do they have to support their claim? Metro has more than 17 ,000 students, in comparison to CU-Denver's 10,000.. I would think if a merger

were to be suggested to the legislators, it should be in favor of Metro!

Metro is a very good school with the potential for ex­cellence. Our School of Business has an excellent record in the community; our Department of Criminal Justice has national prominence, and the School of Science is just as good.

Constituents, we should be aware of the possible ramifications of the takeover. I'm not advocating we take up arms. To the contrary, I do suggest we sit back and carry on our usual business: getting an education. It's been stated that the best action to take is no action at all. After all, the legislators haven't made this an issue.

MSC adds varsity wrestling; team to compete nationally

"We need more people to participate in the program." Maslahati explained. "I •believe that much of the problem is because many students are unaware that Metro has a wrestling team."

In drawing its own "political scenario," the plan states it "involves many sensitive political moves which can only be successfully achieved if Regents and administration are prepared in advance as to strategies."

"Players" in the scenario are: • AHEC - "on record as supporting.

merger and dissolution of AHEC," and "they have political clout only through the personal reputation of W artgow" (AHEC executive director).

*MSC and Trustees - "on rword as supporting the dissolution of AHEC and will cooperate with Regents in splitting up AHEC-Outies," and "strongly oppose merger under Regents, but have no political influence to speak of." ,

•Colorado Commission of Higher Education - "CCHE opposition can be severely weakened if cooperation bet­ween Trustees and Regents is demonstrated.''

*Regents - "must-avoid any public display of interest in control of MSC as a merged operation as long as possible. To publicly state support of merger under Regents creates instant opposition from Trustees, other boards, CCHE, minority community, Denver Legislators, others," "will bring impJOv­ed image to CU system by diluting elitist image and demonstrating spirit of cooperation," and "gives Regents oppor- · tunity to develop political support for their superior management skills as the best location for governance of ¥SC."

MSC President Richard Fontera Mon­day called the plan "a marvelous piece of elitism," but then urged people to· remember "what we are all here about - not the exchange of memos, but meeting the needs of students."

In pointing out that four regents have denied the intent of the confidential plan, Fontera said, "This is a CU pr~ blem and they're going to have to sweep it up. The souffle doesn't always rise. I am of the opinion that most of what comes out of this will be finger-pointing time."
