Appeal Board Reorganized

New Guidelines Set by Kevin Vaughan Assistant Editor, The Metrapolitan

With the goal of establishing a "court of equity," the Board on Academic Standards Exceptions is drafting new guidelines for consider­ing student appeals.

According to Associate Vice President of Admissions and Records Ken Curtis, the board is hoping to make rulings on student appeals in­volving academic standards more consistent.

For example, Curtis said, in theory a student who wanted to graduate with 115 hours instead of 120 could petition the board for an exception to the standing rule.

The newly-formed board is com­posed of three faculty represen­tatives, two MSC students, the vice president for acadeffiic affairs, the associate dean of admissions and records, as well as a non-voting chairperson.

In addition to making rulings more consistent, the, board is trying to speed up the process, as well aS providing input to MSC President Richard Fontera concerning rulings on the appeals.

"What the committee is trying to do is bring some guidelines to students," Curtis said. "And also delegate down to lower personnel the cases they would normally hear."

The responsibilities of the board also include the consideration of cases involving extenuating cir­cumstances, reviewing ad­ministrative offices and guidelines, identifying standards where there are to be no exceptions made, and making recommendations to the MSC President when an executive decision is required.

But Curtis stressed that the board was not simply there to hear student appeals.

"The board is viewed as a court of equity rather than an appeals board, and to me that reflects extenuating circumstances. We are trying to uphold reasonable, high standards," Curtis said.

Though still in the organizing stages, the board plans to begin hearing cases just after the Thanksgiving break.

"We felt the students needed something right now," Curtis said. "We'll begin hearing cases after Thanksgiving and hopefully have a greater breadth of things on campus than we had before."

Of the seven member board, four votes are needed to gamer a deci­sion, and the board will not hear a case unless at least six members are present. []

MSC students will be voting on a new constitution for student govern­ment on November 21 and 22.

According to Aswciated Students of Metropolitan State College (ASMSC) President Brendan Kelly, the new version of the constitution was drafted as a result of widespread dissatisfaction with the existing con­stitution, which Kelly termed "vague and confusing."

The new constitution, said Kelly, creates a more consistent framework for the branches of student govern­ment.

"We wanted to create a structure that we could work inside of," said Kelly. "A lot of effort went into this - we wanted to create a document that would be around for the next ten years at least."

The new constitution incorporates some major changes in the structure of MSCs ·student government, in­cluding creation of a student senate ­of 25 elected students.

That senate, if the constitution is approved, would assume control over "all student fee funded ac­tivities," effectively transferring power over student fees - over $600,000 this last year - into the hands of student government. Kelly said the move was meant to provide more student input and control over those monies.

Hearings Held On General Studies

MSC Input Sought by Lisa Dell' Amore Assistant Editor, The Metropolitan

The General Studies Review Sub­committee is currently holding hear­ings for suggestions from MSC students, faculty and staff members on a preliminary proposal for general studies requirements.

Following a request by President Fontera last December, the General Studies Review Subcommittee of the Faculty Senate Curriculum Com­mittee was asked to review the general studies curriculum at MSC.

President Fontera advised the sub­committee to determine whether the general studies program is meeting the needs of present and continuing students. The president is seeking a final proposal within two years.

What Goes Up Must Go.Down by Ann Trudeau Reporter, The Met_ropolltan

The Auraria Library's tWelve Public Access Catalog terminals, which were to be operational around October 7, went into service on Thursday, November 3. Almost. Six of the terminals were on-line and

. working. Almost. The six terminals that were up, were down (computer talk for not working) since 3 p.m. Thursday.

On Monday morning, Carol Robinson, assistant to the director at the Auraria Library, explained the sequence of events.

"Six of the terminals were up on Thursday. When the next six were being brought up on-line, it didn't work. They found that a chip was slightly different so they had to modify the software to accomodate the difference. All terminals are on­line and working," stated Robinson. The system will be going thr0trgh modifications periodically, and patrons of the library can expect to see the system down during those times.

"This is the reason we will keep the card catalog around for a while," said Robinson. But students may have trouble finding books with out the PAC, sinee the subject catalo~e hasn't been kept current since January, 1982.

Eventually, the card catalog will be completely removed, although that won't happen until the library has provided a back-up system for

patrons usage when the PAC is down. At present the library has everything copied on tapes so what's in the computer won't be totally lost if the computer goes completely down.

Once the bugs have all been work­ed out, and the system has been loaded with information from the seven participating research libraries, it promises to be a very ver­satile research tool.

· The participating libraries, besides Auraria, are: Colorado School of Mines, Colorado State University, Denver Public Library,

· University of Colorado at Boulder, University of Denver and -University of Northern Colorado. They form a group known as CARL, Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries.

CARL members foresaw than an

New constitution continued from page 1

"We want to see more students get involved," Kelly said.

But it would appear that Kelly's push for increased student involve­ment is going to take time. The ASMSC held open forums on the proposed constitution on October 17 and 18, in the hope of explaining the new constitution to interested students. At the first of those meetings, one person showed up.

But Ke lly said he wasn't

discouraged by student apathy. "It's understandable, really," Kel­

ly said. "We've got to create something for them to get involved in first." Kelly hopes that the changes in student government brought about by a new constitution will do that.

"I don't think students quite realize what they've got here. We could be dong a lot of things we're not doing. I'm excited." 0

The group has held hearings each week since October 28.

Dr. Richard Leventhal, vice­chairman of the subcommittee and an MSC marketing professor, said the hearings are being held for feed­back and recommendation.

"The primary reason is just to let the faculty addr~ the proposal," he said.

Leventhal said after the last meeting on December 2, the sub­committee will reconvene and discuss any suggestions or recom­mendations they have received.

He said a second preliminary pro-

posal is expected April 1, 1984 although the .date may be reschedul­ed if necessary.

All students, faculty and staff members are invited to attend the hearings held from 3 to 5 p.m. each Monday and Friday in Room 119 of the Science Building.

Leventhal urged the students to attend the hearings, particularly Monday, Nov. 28 when student government leaders will address the general studies program.

"We want input from the students and student government," Leven­thal said.

MSC Science Students Get a Piece of the Rock

by Lisa Dell' Amore Assistant Editor, The Metropolitan

Sometimes it seems like a student's motto ought to be 'we try harder' -just like those guys out there working for the auto rental agency.

We juggle our lives' attending classes, going to work, and whenever possi­ble studying. Sacrifices have to be made. We're willing to give up a lot in order to get an education.

But how many students would agree to forfeit their first week of summer vacation and spend their time investigating the surface of a volcanic dome?

Vicki McConnell did. Last May 23, McConnell, a MSC geology major and eleven other MSC students left the Auraria parking lot to visit Mount St. ·Helens in Washington state. MSC was the only undergraduate school allow­ed to send a group of students into the dome.

But it wasn't easy. The MSC Bio-Science Foundation first contacted the U.S. Forest Service in Washington, D.C. last December seeking permission to visit the dome. After receiving permission, the foundation made plans to leave during the first week of spring break in March, 1983.

But problems arose. Mount St. Helens erupted and MSC was advised to reschedule their trip. The expedition was pushed back to the first week after the spring semester ended.

With $5,000 in hand, obtained from fundraisers, personal contributions and donations from student government, twelve MSC students arrived at Mount St. Helens in search of volcanic material. •

McConnell said the Earth Science Club and the Bio-Science Foundation went to Mount St. Helens seeking volcanic samples to bring back for analysis.

"We're doing specific mineralogy analysis," McConnell said, " and what we're looking for is specific trace elements and metals."

As a geologist, McConnell said the opportunity to study a live volcano was very rare and unusual.

"You're almost like kids in a candy shop during the whole trip "she said "th , h d ' ' ere s so muc to see an so much to do."

Phil Danielson, former MSC Bio-Science Foundation member agreed with McConnell about the trip's experience.

~'Flying into the crater and landing was the most spectacular thing," he said.

Slides of the expedition are available to all MSC Earth Science faculty members. For more information contact Dixon Smith at 629-3143. O

_ Sure you know that computers are the coming thing. And, of course, youknow that programming, or even just being familiar with computer ter-minology, would be a plus in almost any job interview. But how do you scanthose-things in a friendly, non-threatening atmosphere without spinding abundle on classes?

Look -right here on campus. The Auraria Computer Club...an Enterpris-'i^ns Studgnt Society (otherwise known as ACCESS) provides an opportunitytor hands-on computer experience for both whiz kids and neoph:ytes.

ACCESS has no fees or dues, The club's goal is to provide members with asmuch knowledge and information as. possible about the computer industrythrough field tiips, lecture series and career 12i1..

Club president Kari Tornow sees the club as a "link from the college cam-pus to business," a way to explore employers' neds and expectations withoutthe pressure of having to perform on the spot.

Five field trips throughout the semester will explore a variety of systems invarious -business applications - banking and hospital operations, for exam-ple. Field trips are bn Fridays. !u1 timi varv.

The lectures cover a number of aspects of the field. Ned Scott Frank, aDACC graduate, is offering a series on digital electronics to explain howcomputer. innards work in language that doesn't requite an extensivebackground in electronics to understand. Other lectures will cover "Prac-tical Pascal," and systems analysis.

The club began during fall semester of '82, and spent last year gettingorganized. This year's goal is to reach into thecommunity, letting businessesknow there is a pool of interested, active people on campus to draw upon forinterviews.

Tornow foresees ACCE ,S working with ACM, the Metro computer club,and DPMA, the UCD cr rb, to pool resources and coordinate activities,especially for the spring Career Fair.

Meetings are held every Wednesday from 2-3 p.m. in SOI20, with occa-sional adjustments in time to'accommodate special activities. Members need

Pawns Fall in Geopolitical Ch~

U.S. and Soviet governments know that military force cannot solve inter­national troubles. They know they cannot rearrange the world aceording to their design by the use of force, but this knowledge doesn't prevent them from trying. Their policy is to use military strength to achieve diplomatic ob­jectives. They equate force with diplomatic competence.

The cold war and the arms race are the result of this equation. Force is what characterized our involvement in Korea and Vietnam, and force is what causes us to remember Eastern Europe and Afghanistan.

This policy is deeply imbedded in the psychology of our cold-warriors. It may even take a nuclear ch~ge to dislodge it. Political commentator Irving Kristol, claims that "Ours is a world ordered by military force and by the willingness to use that force when circumstances require .. . Whoever does not have such force or is overly reluctant to use it, ends up living in a world that has been ordered by someone else." Andropov and Reagan would certainly agree with this opinion, but that doesn't mean it's correct. Some people, for sure, wish to order our world by force, and some people are willing to use that force. The reason for this is that some people lack a sense of morality -they are either unwilling to, or incapable of, distinguishing right from wrong.

In the corridors of Auraria, preppies and desperados - one of everything, and enough of each to make you cock-eyed, pass by It is possible to pass through these hallways unscathed, but it isn't necessary.

Right now the plazas are full of Urban Drift Dynamic Meterology: Atmospheric Process What will happen when the verdict comes in? Your guess is as good as mine.

This viscosity of campus life is still thin and crude; soon, soon it will congeal, contracting against the cold, the community of Auraria will take on a tighter knit : Every fall is new: new dharma, roles, allies, and foes.

These institutions were built with tinsnips and chickenwire - odd l>irds with odd feathers flock here, shopping for jewels in the flea market of knowledge, we are assembling a machinery that works, even if it might look a little funny.

, - Carson Reed

The dreadful effect of American and Soviet immorality can be seen clearly in our dealings with less developed countries. In an attempt to justify military intervention in the Third World, Dr. Robert E. Moffit, spokesman for the "New Right," contends "If the Soviets wish to arm or support Com­munist national liberation movements in the Third World, there is no reason why the American Republic should refrain from supporting or arming pro­Western nationalist forces in order 'to extend its geopolitical influence."

The Superpowers are hung up on geographical and political expansion. They view intervention as a legitimate means for containing communism or pushing back democracy. They extend their influence by direct military ac­tion whenever they can get away with it, and by massive arms transfers ' when they can't.

Often at the mercy of unpopular but well-armed factions, the citizens of Third World countries become the sacrificial pawns of the EAST/WEST conflict. The superpowers rationalize intervention by claiming to serve the best interests of the populace. The U.S. says that it's promoting or defending democratic principles as a matter of conviction. But the number one princi­ple of democracy is government by the governed. Often, the governments or factions being supported do not even allow their people a voice. They often have little or no respect for human rights. What brand of democracy is Reagan pushing?

The Soviets say they are promoting the dignity of man~nd, that they are fighting to liberate the masses. But the promise of socialism, where private ownership of the means of production and distribution has been eliminated, is a cruel joke. Under communist rule, the people share the work, but what are their rewards? Their wealth gets distributed, but to who and on whose orders? ·

What it amounts to is that any less developed country forced to make a pr_o-Moscow or pro-Washington choice, ~nds up losing either way. The populace is promised the good life by their "benefactors." What they get is

• tyranny. These people are caught up in the game of geopolitical influence where superpower success is too often measured by the level of human suf­fering inflicted. ~ne way or another, these people get screwed. D

Park Unto Others As They Park Unto You Editor:

I am responding to the September 28 letter from Mr. Waldo Benavidez, regarding the parking situation .that has become a severe burden to our Westside neighbors.

Metropolitan State College cares about its community relationships, and since we are an urban institution, we strive to maintain a sensitivity to the concerns of the people around us.

A very real concern to the people of Denver is the shortage of adequate parking. Many of us who come to work at the Auraria campus are reminded daily of the limited parking available to us. But our neighbors who live in this area have to deal with the problem 24 hours a day. For them this is a quality-of-life issue.

It is possible that some of the faculty, staff and student body at Metropolitan State College may not fully realize the hardship area residents suffer when they cannot park in front of their own homes, as they go in and out, accomplishing the tasks of every day living.

Therefore, I encourage all members of the MSC community to use the parking lots provided throughout the campus, so that we do not continue to affect a hardship on our Westside neighbors. Of course it will take the cooperation of all who come to the Auraria campus, to make this effort suc­ceed, and we welcome campus-wide cooperation, so we may remedy this problem.

Sincerely,

Richard M. Fontera, President

We are fudirectly Causing Our Own Demise Letter to the Editor:

Regarding the letter to the editor of Nov. 2, 1983, I wish to respond in con-" nection with the Frontier Horizon Airlines petition in The Metropolitan. I was one of the signers of this document. Although I would not deny the "right" of my fellow students to apply to this airline, I feel strongly that there is a much larger issue at stake than simply whether or not the position should be posted.

The basic idea underlying this whole issue of Frontier Airlines, Continen­tal and now Greyhound is one of "economic FREEDOM." The argument of management says that if these people don't want to work for the wage that is put forth by the company, then REPLACE THEM. It seems that most peo­ple on campus go along with this reasoning. What will become of all of us as future employees if we dare not question some of the salary offers of our future employers? Do these people, who now face: losing their jobs, have no

Che11nnent l~I )()rt We would like to thank everyone who attended the Constitution forums.

Hopefully they were helpful to all concerned. The referendum for the con­stitution will be November 21 & 22 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. each day. Th.ere will be voting booths located in the Student Center, and in the West Classroom Building.

It is our hope to hold open forums throughout the spring semester. Thec;e will vary in topic to whatever is the current issue at hand. Then we hope to help inform everyone on the issues that affect students. If you have any sug­gestions related to school we would be glad to sit down and talk to you about them. What we don' t know, we'll find out. That is why we are here!

Last Thursday Carol "J alee" Jacobs held the first (of what I hope will be many) inter-club council meeting. All went very well, and it is our hope that the council will be able to get students more involved. Once the clubs, stu­dent government and student activities get together, much could be ac­complished.

For those of you interested, there are now several fraternities well on their · way to establishment. Good luck to those who took the initiative. Just remember, people, you get what you put into it, and that's what it's all about.

economic rights to try to better their conditions without others trying to take their jobs before they leave the building?

I feel that the economic fights now are dealing with "workers," and we as students can be very detached, since we are planning on becoming managers; but do you really think that this economic freedom concept will not someday reach the management level? When you have invested twenty years of your life in a company and are receiving $85,000 a year, why shouldn't a company replace you? We are indirectly causing our own demise, thirty years from now, since there will probably be even more students then who will gladly embrace the new "market forces" that will work in their favor and AGAINST YOU.

notary public and typewriters for all MSC students. Just stop by Room 34CC of the Student Center and we will be glad to help out.

In response to our last column, four new people got involved in student government. Thank you to those who responded! As we have said before, this is a growing organization and needs as much input· as ~ible.

It is once again our suggestion that AHEC put a column in The Metropolitan. From talking to various people on the campus, we get the im­pression that the majority doesn' t know what AHEC stands for, let alone its function. It seems as though a column might do the trick, what do you think?

The next parking meeting is Thursday November 10 at 3 p.m. in Room 301 of the Central Classroom building. Maybe this time we the students can come up with the answers. Better yet, there is an open forum on Auraria in the Student Center Thursday November 10 at noon.

Things you might want to talk about are parking, the Interfaith Center, the cost of copying, facilities (space) growth, and the rules and regulations at Auraria in general. See ya there?!

We would like to have your input on a travel agency, night time tutors, a Select-A-Seat, and the suggested concert. Also the Student Facilities Policy Council is now looking for ways to enlarge or improve the Student Center.

People, it's changing. Hop on the bandwagon and make this a campus to be proud of!

Megacamprn. The wo'd conjures up <dence fiction fanm.;e,_ A planet in another galaxy, light-years away, a futuristic concept for mass education in the 21st century, or perhaps, something closer to home -Auraria megacampus, Denver Metropolitan University.

Can it happen? Will it happen? What will Auraria be like five years from now, ten years, or even next semester?

Right now', no one is making any solid predictions about the future of the Auraria campus. The administrations and governing boards, the L'egislature and the Colorado Commission on Higher Education are holding their collec­tive breath, waiting for the results of the legislative performance audit of Auraria.

But what are the possibilities? There are three aspects of Auraria that face some likelihood of change: the physical campus, and the administrative and academic structures.

Physically, the Auraria campus is limited by its downtown location which restricts the expansion of its boundaries. The 35,000 staff and students on campus this semester are finding classrooms cramped. While some classrooms are empty during certain hours of the day, MSC President Dr. Richard Fontera says Auraria is far above the 40-50 percent national average for classroom occupancy with 75-80 percent of the space in use during the hours of campus operation.

But there are still late afternoon hours when few classes are offered. Fontera says this may be changing as the number of traditional students increases, those attending college right out of high school.

'It may be that the 'best time' for classes has shifted," Fontera says.

More late afternoon classes may level out student oc­cupancy of, classrooms but with a growth rate at MSC alone of 1-2 percent annually, Auraria needs more space.

Dr. Charles Manning, interim executive director of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, says the CCHE is supportive of the proposed replacement of the East Classroom building.

"It would be a good idea to get all the campus buildings on the same side of Cherry Creek," he says·.

But unless the Legislature and the governing boards of the schools can agree on how to finance the building, there won,t be one, even though Manning says it is on the CCHE "priority list" of capital im­provements for campuses in Colorado.

A new classroom building, the Tivoli shopping mall, and the increasing student population will probably aggravate Auraria's much discussed park­ing situation. Solutions to this problem seem to have been narrowed down to a Bronco Stadium-Auraria transit system or multi-level parking garages. Both ideas are expensive, both are drawing criticism from administrators, faculty, and students, and both will probably result in increased parking fees.

Another campus structure under consideration by AHEC is a building to house UCD's Center for Public Policy, an organization which does special studies and consultations for public agencies. A number of art and educa­tional agencies in Denver might benefit by being housed in one building, possibly somewhere on Auraria campus.

In the past year, MSC has attempted another solution to overcrowding, without depending on new campus structures.

Through Metro's extended campus program classes are offered at two dis­tant locations in southeast and northwest Denver. An increase in course of­ferings at these and possibly other locations may help ease the campus con-

November 9 1983

gestion in the future, a solution that comes straight from those pre-Auraria days when classrooms were scattered all over downtown Denver.

Manning says the campus is efficient in terms of physical space but is quickly approaching its limits.

"I don't see demands shrinking," he says, "but growing considerably, and I would presume that will call for the need for additional facilities. So the skyline (at Auraria) will change."

The possibility of changes in the administrative structure of Auraria seems to provoke the most controversy among officials. In the..past, a merger of the three educational institutions has been considered by the Legislature on several occasions and this idea has not been ruled out. Combining the in­stitutions under a single governing board would seem to be one way to solve the problem of duplication of services, simplify decision making, and reduce

operating costs. But the Board of Regents won't turn loose of UCD, the Board of Trustees won't give up MSC and the State Board for Community Colleges in­sists on retaining DACC under its authority.

The administrations co-exist and make decisions about Auraria and at the same time must look out for the best interests of their respective institutions. When they can't come to an agreement, the AHEC board, composed of representatives from the three schools, AHEC, and the student population, comes to the rescue to settle disputes and issue binding decisions.

Manning says the success of the system and the deci­sion on whether to retain the status quo in the future, depends on how well the boards and the chief ex­ecutives of the schools can work together.

"It makes a lot of difference in how well Auraria · works or doesn't work. depending on the general at­

titudes of the boards, and the chief executive officers of the systems and how much they want to make it work v.ersus how they are pursuing the understandably uni­que and different interests of those organizat~ons," he says.

Manning admits this may be a difficult goal to ac­complish when the three schools have had 12 presidents in five years. (MSC, five; UCD, four, and DACC, three.)

For students attending the three institutions at Auraria, academic changes will be more evident than changes in the physical campus or the administrations.

A cfirect merger of two or all three schools could open up educational oppor­tunities by reducing the number of degree programs offered and would cer­tainly eliminate the freedom students now have to choose which type of in­stitution they want to attend, thus defeating the original concept of Auraria.

Increased cross-listing could result in a certain .homogenization of student populations, ending the highly-touted lines of diversification between schools and between students' reasons for attending them.

If these lines are erased, Manning says the strongest argument against merger goes away.

There are no quick and easy answers for any of the questions facing Auraria. The audit results, however accurate, will undoubtedly unleash a fresh flurry of controversy that will rage between the Legislature and the in­stitutions for days or years. But there will be changes because Auraria, as an ongoing, expanding part of Colorado's educational system, will have to ad­just to the demands of the students and community.

Whether tomorrow's changes will be good or bad is a question that con-cerns all of us today. 0

Auraria Forum Thursday, November 10 The campus will change, for better or worse, with student input or without it. But if you would like an opportunity to

put in your two-cents worth, now is your chance. Top administrators at AHEC are sponsoring an Auraria Open Forum to discuss the many plans and projects slated forthis

campus. Officials will be on hand to answer questions about parking problems and possible solutions, capital construction projects such as the proposed East Classroom replacement facility, additions to the Science Building, the possible closure of Lawrence St., and overall long-term plans for the campus.

"We hope to inform people of what we are doing, what we have been doing, and to get input into what we should be do­ing in the future," said AHEC Community Relations Coordinator Larry Ambrose.

The forum will be held on noon on Thursday, November 10, in Rooms 230 C and Din the Student Center. "We hope that this will be informative for everyone involved," said Ambrose.

Saturday was a night of enchant-ment at the Denver AuditoriumTheatre as "Kodovs and Stars" glid-ed and leapt aeros tte stage,

Montview Boulevard PresbvterianChurch was *re site Sunday iveningof the MSC Concert Choir and theMonMew Weskninster Choir's col-laboration on "A GermanRequiem," celebrating the l50th an-nivery of Brahms' birth.

Both choirs are directed bv Dr.errald D. McCollum, w6o is

Minister of Music at MonMewPresbyterian and Director of ChoralActivities at MSC, Plenty of hardwork went into this conc€rt by bothDr. McCollum and the choirs. Theresult was a 180-'voice masterpiece.The choirs were very professionalsounding - the harmony wasprecise and the diction was clear.The piece was done in Engtish,which made the audience get involv-ed because they understood whatwas being sung. The choirs werevery enthusiastic while singing but

not as excited as Dr, McCollum whoappeared to 'feel" the music whileconductlng.I Thc choirs were accompanii:d by a40-piece orchestra. This combina-tion worked zurprisingly well; thechoirs didn't attempt to outdo theorchestra and vice versa. The blen-

' ding of the choral volcres and the or-chestra was beautiful.

Both the Westminster Choir andthe MSC Concert Choir have a goodrapport with Dr. McCollum.

'It took a lot of hard work.' saidDr. McCollum afterward. 'We didthis after only one rehearsal togetheras a group." The choirs sounded as ifthey had worked together for severalweels instead of one rehearsaltogether.

The piece finished to a well-deserved standing ovation from apacked house. Dr. McCollum andthe choirs should be commended forgiving a top notch performanee, en-trancing the audience to the finalnote. tr

ballets, resulting in a fine diversityof classical and modern ballet,Although this format did not enableone to enjoy the emotional involve-ment wlth characters, the fast paceand varief was an ercellent way tointroduce ballet to the novice.

The first piece the Kozlovs dancedto was from "Le Corsaire Pas deDeux." Leonid leapt onto the stagewith strong dramatic presencecreating a fuehng of overwhelming

masculinity. Valentlna was verylucld, flowing and feminine; her

. dancing seemed to come deep fromwithin her soul. This piece was verytraditional with the ballerina the ac-quiescent star of the show.

The audience s favorite seemed tobe "Under the Sun", danced withWilliam De Cregory and TamaraHadley. Unlike classical ballet,modern ballet gives both male andfemale dancers an equal chance forthe limelight. This particular seg-ment seemed to make a strong state-ment about modern life, The .

dancers appeared so independent ofone another, yet at the same time, indire need of each other.

"Under the Sun" was artistic, butthe piece that followed brought outsentiments only classical ballet canevoke. This was "La Vivandiere". inwhich Valentina starred with An-drew Baxter. It was in this ensemblethat Valentina stole the show with aserenity only one seemingly born forballet can possess.

The grand finale was "Don Quix-

ote '. with the Kozlovs and threeother dancers. This segment provid-ed a lively ending, which warmedthe dancers up for a round of aPnlause. The Kozlovs bowed to a rush6f b"bv carnations thrown onto thestaqe.

ill in all, the performance was en-iovable and relaxing. Denver is veryiuitv to have a pr6moter like Col'orado ContemPorary Dance to ar'range an engagement of "KodovsandStars." u

November 9, 1983 STYLE Educ·otional Struggle

by Gary Jones Reporter, The Metr<>Politan

Art is not so much a matter of what you say; it is a matter of how you say it. Educating Rita could be viewed as another rendition of a woman's struggle to be herself, but it transcends this modern cliche and attains a universal level as it studies the relationship between people and their knowledge.

Educating Rita is about a 26-year­old hairdressei: who goes to college to study English literature. An interac­tion develops between her and her tutor, with each changing the life of the: other. This movie is not about lovers; it is about friends.

Rita a ulie w alters) brings an ear­thy brightness to this role, reminis­cent of Debbie Reynolds. She is not one of those current movie stars whose "talent" is a gorgeous bod and bedroom eyes; she is an actress who evokes more.than sensuality. · Rita is under pressure from her

husband and family to have babies. She wants to discover herself first · and sees education as the means. When she first appears she is dressed in a tacky, tight, bright pink skirt, spiked heels, with fluffs of hair ayed to match her dress. As she changes, her dress style moves to preppy blonde, to outrageous chic, and finally to a casual look in which she

dresses to fit the occasion. Her dress reflects her changes as she "learns to sing a better song."

Julie Walters' eyes capture the conflict within Rita as they show fear and vulnerability behind strong determination. She must overcome a husband who opposes her education, a mind that is undisciplined (though bright), and her fear of the academic environment.

Michael Caine plays her tutor, a brilliant man, disillusioned with life, and seeking comfort from the bottle. He sees Rita as unique, and is disheartened as she becomes another academic junkie. Caine gives a superb performance, and it is nice to see him in a film that matches his caliber of acting.

Educating Rita slows down about halfway through. The change of pace reflects the changing mind of Rita and her changing relationship to her world. She is no longer just learning new facts, she is developing a value system based upon her knowledge ...;:_ a slow and painful process. Yet the acting of Walters and Caine, plus curiosity about the tutor/student relationship, sustains the second half.

Educating Rita is a movie that strik~ to the heart of a struggling student, capturing the bitter-sweet relationship between people and knowledge. 0

SPORTS. Robin Heid's

Wild Life Guidebook The nuclear arms race is not generally considered a risk sport in the

c'iassical sense but in truth it offers the same risks and rewards as less socially acceptable activities like jumping from high places or seeing how many fingers and toes you can leave behind on Everest. Moreover, it is the world's most popular sporting event; a greater number of people and countries follow this race than all other international contests combined. (Most na­tions like to say the Olympics are their most important sporting events - but how could they be? They're only held once-every four years.)

For spectators of the nuclear arms race (Australians, Third Worlders and residents of Los Angeles), the object of the sport appears to be seeing who can build the most nukes before somebody starts using them. Certain of its participants (nuke freezers and Democrats, for example) believe the objec­tive is to see who can spout the most idiot dialectic and still keep a straight face. Serious students of the game, however, know the real aim of the nuclear arms race is achieving deterrence. Or failing that, hitting your target.

Deterrence is a quaint old concept derived from the Latin de + terrere, to frighten. Thus, the respective major league participants in the sport are do­ing their best to see who can frighten everybody else the most. (And it seems obvious to them that they can't frighten anybody if they don't build nukes -the fact that nuke freezers don't have any nukes is the reason nobody pays any attention to th.em. But that's another story.)

The biggest risk of the nuclear arms race is the possibility that all the nukes will go off. If this happens, a lot of people will die - probably at least twice as many as have checked out in communist nations through a government­sponsored risk sport known incountry as Ideological Purification. For sur­vivors of multiple thermonuclear detonations, the consequences will be . downright inconvenient: the environment will be poisoned, food will be scarce and the Super Bowl will be. no more.

The rewards of the nuclear arms race are, like any risk sport, commen­surate with the risks. Along with the ability to incinerate the planet has come the eradication and/or cure of countless diseases, the development of super­yield foodstuffs and the market appearance of. laser disc stereos. Most impor­tantly, knowing about The Race will improve your social standing: people who sneer if you disc~ earned-run averages or passing efficie!1CY will vi~w you

with respect when you talk about the depth at carrier position or the Pershing II's six-minute offense.

There are several levels at which to participate in the nuclear arms race. One good option is to join the military; that way you can actually launch a nuke when it's time foi: the Final Fireworks. A more trendy choice, though, is to join the nuclear freeze movement so you can run around on weekends singing songs and blocking driveways. This is a very pleasant way to par­ticipate in The Race because you get to raise hell in the sunshine and have picnics with a whole army of the similarly deterred.

The best thing about the nuclear arms race, however, is that it can really get the adrenalin pumping when you contemplate the cataclysmic forces col­lectively poised against you. But then, that's what risk sport is all about: Paradise, as Mohamet said, is under the shadow of words. D

·DU Ends Kickers' Season by Dave Migoya Sports Editor, The Metropolitan

The MSC Men's Varsity Soccer team finished its season with a respectable 11-9 record after dropp­ing a must-win game to DU on Saturday, 5-1.

After losing 3-0 last week, the Kickers had to defeat the Pioneers by at least three goals if they were to advance to the Regional Tourna­ment next week. Althouizh the team did well in suppressing DU's scorin~ machine Soteras Kaf alas last week, they didn't have much success last weekend as he added three goals to his record breaking scoring total.

"He has great ball control,' MSC Assistant Coach Al Ashton said. "We held him last week, but he was just too much this time."

The team was playing ~thout midfielder Tim Vetter, who was

ejected from last week's DU mat­chup.

"The guys were a little leery of playing without Tim," Ashton said. "We were up for last week's game, but now we didn't have it."

DU played good soccer and capitalized on the Kicker's mistakes. The lone MSC goal came in the se­cond half from Jose Aguirre. Aguirre had been idle for two-thirds of the season with torn cartilage in his knee. Playing in his first game since the injury, and with bandages cover­ing his knee, Aguirre drove down the left side and beat the DU defense and the keeper for the score.

Before Aguirre's goal with MSC losing 2-0, Ashton removed sweeper Ken Wagner in favor of another of­fensive man.

"We were hoping to put a little more pressure on them," Ashton said. "Unfortunately, we could only get one goal out of it."

Spikers Take Second at NAIA by Ginger A. Van Pelt Reporter, The Metropolitan

An excellent season has drawn to a close for the MSC Women's Volleyball team with a 37-20 record.

The Spikers notched seeond place · in the District NAIA tournament last weekend at Mesa College in Gr.and Junction after losing two matches . the week before.

Six schools were represented at the tournament and in the first round the SpiJCers defeated Regis in two games, 18-16, and 15-7. In these­cond round, MSC beat New Mexico Highlands in two games, 15-10 _and 15-3. In the third and final round, the team faced Mesa College and

won the first game, 15-12, but lost the next two games 15-11and15-11. The tournament was based on dou­ble elimination rounds and the MSC team again faced Mesa. This time the Spikers were not so fortunate, as they lost 15-13, 15-10.

"The team played very well at the tournament, but they didn't have quite the intensity that they had their previous match to pull off the match," said coach Pat Johnson.

Catherine Guiles was n~ed to the District Tournament team, and honored as an outstanding athlete.

After a good season, the team and coach are looking to do even better next year. This was a season that the team should be proud of. 0
