Letters Student Body

Presidential Report Pres comments on editor's farewell

There·s nothing that gripes me more than the departe (sic) employed by people when they know that what's said will be said with impunity. Such is the editorial which appeared in the last Guly 29) issue of The Metropolitan, written by· the past editor, Joan Conrow.

I personally feel it's a shame that she wrote such a negative accusatory editorial without being available for personal responses to that editorial. In her editorial she drew a picture of Metropolitan State College as a haven for the corrupt and uncaring. I must debate with her on those perceptions.

There is a mentality within the newspaper industry to seek out abuses of publicly-supported institutions, and within this role there lies some benefit and value to the public. But in the case of Joan, accusations of such abuses are made in an insinuative manner, without the least amount of substantiation. I find this irresponsible and µnprofessional on the part of Joan. Theodore Roosevelt called such activity by the newspaper industry muckraking - which of itself is a pretty strong term to use - a term I can, on my "microcosmic" level, identify with at this time.

I have dealt with all those who are operating other than on an "above board" level in my capacity as President of the Associated Students of Metropolitan

;

State College this year, since I've dealt with every ad ministrator and official of the college, as well as the people who represent the Auraria Higher Education ·Center. My concern is for effecting changes and im­plementing innovations which will best serve the stu­dent body of this college. In my dealin~ with these

. people who are so negatively considered by Joan, I · have gotten help, encouragement and results in ·every endeavor I've presented to them. When the 9th Street Players had a problem with AHE~ on the use of the theatre by outside groups, a meeting settled the issue in the matter of two hours, to the complete satisfaction of the producer of that club, with facility and coopera­tion by those people at AHEC.

When I approached Stanley Sunderwirth (MSC's Academic Vice-President) with an idea for changes in the NC policy, he spoke realistically to the proposal, and has been investigating areas where implementa­tion of it might prove difficult. The Fall Semester Schedule failed to tell students that by dropping a class during the period of the 13th through the 19th day of the semester they would automatically receive an NC on ·their record for that class. Stan Sunderwirth and I met with Ken Curtis in the Admissions and Records of­fice about the problem. We devised a special card to be used during that part of the drop period - which

Auraria bike thefts down, but reader says-precautions needed

Happily, bicycle thefts are down on campus. David Rivera of Auraria Public Safety is happy also over the decline in thefts. Where twenty thefts occurred in June 1980, six happened last month and only eight from April 1 - June 30 of this year. A public information campaign, combined with campus police patroling.the six parking racks on campus, and bicyclists themselves more conscious of the risks to their means of transpor­tation has worked. There is still more to be done.

Between noon and 1:00 p.m. on Monday, July 20 and again on Friday July 24, I observed the bikes at five of the six parking racks on the main campus. I ig­nored those machines parked on signs, posts, fences, trees or other living things. While AHEC bicycle regulations forbid on-campus parking at other than of­ficial parking spots, convenience conspires against the regulations. The problem is especially acute at UCD. I counted two bicycles at the two archaic bicycle racks and fourteen along the.parking meters and posts that ring the East Classroom Building.

I counted sixty-eight bikes on Monday and 4 7 on Friday. The methods of securing the bike to the racks were as often curious as they were incautious. A new

.... \ .. , . . ....... ' . ' . , ~

Peugot costing maybe $700 has a thin chain with a rus­ty key lock; the bike could be unsecured in a few seconds. An old worn Penney's three-speed is secured with a Citadel RK 200 which promises to be im­pregnable. Mr. Rivera told me how he observed a woman tie her 10-speed around a round post with but a thin chain. A thief could lift the bike and chain off the post and walk away with no effort expended! In all, fifteen bikes had the kryptonite or citadel lock while an even hundred used some combination of locks and chain (the bike racks are constructed so that only a lock is necessary to secure bike to rack) .

What most astounded me is that only 30 bikes were licensed, with ten percent of those having outdated • 1980 plates. The License Bureau for the City and County informed me that some thirty bike thefts have been reported daily over the past two months, the same rate as last year. Fifty-three percent of those stolen bikes that are registered are retrieved, while the figure of those not so registered has fallen to ten per­cent from almost twenty percent a year and a half ago. Why the decline? It would seem that criminal rin~ who specialize in bicycle thievery are now disassembl­ing stolen bikes and reconstructing them. The frame number of the reborn bike will still betray its origin if it was registered, but if nonregistered, the police are unwilling to confiscate what no longer looks like the original machine reported stolen by the unhappy citizen.

Crossing Speer and Colfax to the Fire Department Headquarters, anyone can have their bicycle inspected for free and receive a license form. One will then have to go to 1200 Broadway with $2 in hand to get this im­portant license. Any Denver resident without a license is breaking the law since municipal ordinance requires licensure of all Denver bikes.

For our own safety, let's license our bikes, get superior locking devices and report suspicious activity around the bikes to the campus police.

Alexander V. Furstenberg .. _,

students have to sign - which explains the implica-· tions of dropping a class at that time. That was done in less than an hour, including the actual design of the card and the wording of the paragraph explaining the situation to the students.

The Vice-President and the Associate Vice-President of Student Affairs at MSC, Antonio Esquibel and • Roberta Smilnak, have been the closest connections I've had with the Administration of the college. I fail to cease being amazed by the sincerity, industry and supportive help I receive from these people. They make my job terrifically effective, they facilitate any pursuit I have, and they provide insights which only • ·years of practlcal experience can provide. I feel per­sonally that these people are working exclusively in the interests of the students and the college; yes, they are on our side.

My personal congratulations to Brian Coffey­Weber, the new editor of The Metropolitan. I feel that your orientation is positive, and you have been helpful -. to me and student government. You add to the positive attitude I have toward the coming year. fm glad you're operating in that capacity. (Hell, you even made a point to call me and remind me to get this col­umn in before deadline - thankSI)

I consider my optimism in this college and the peo- -ple we trust to run it realistic and well-founded. When I compare this college to other colleges, I feel thrilled that we, the students, are so well represented and sup­ported by the officials employed here.

So you've gone to school and received an education that should qualify you for ~ career, right? But, how do you know you'll get that first job? If Steve Shipley

Program at Auraria. The placement program serves cur­

rent students and those that are graduating. The Student Employment Service maintains job listings for students who need full or part-time employment while going to school. The Graduate Placement Service helps graduating students find career

SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE The Community Service Develop­

ment program at Metropolitan State College is seeking applicants to receive• 25 scholarship awards of $500.00 each. The money will pay for most tuition costs while the person is enrolled in an internship program in the Administra­tion of Community Services.

,.,~ The recipient of each scholarship will serve as an administrative intern with a community-based, social-service agency in the Denver metropolitan area. The internship will be complimented with

"' support classe5 two nights a week in the areas of fund raising, volunteer manage­

_-

ment, marketing, conflict resolution, and financial accountability. Up to 30 semester hours of academic credit can be earned along with a Certificate in the Administration of Nonprofit Programs. Credit also can be used in meeting the requirements for the completion of a baccalaureate d~ee. The internsh~ is for two semesters and "'ill begin this September.

A final orientation session, which is a prerequisite for entering the program,. is scheduled for August 13 from 6:00 to 9:00 P .M. in Room 253 West Cl~room on the Auraria Campus. Interested par­ties may call 629-3267.

positions. Shipley enjoys his work and has been

helping people get jobs for ten years. "It's fun," Shipley says, "If you come

in and we help you get a job, I get a big kick out of it. It says that I'm doing my job."

Part of that job is to contact employers locally and nationally to recruit on campus. Shipley is pleased that last year 105 employers came to Auraria to fill numerous positions.

One of his main rfilSponsibilities is get- · ting employers to recruit on campus. Shipley says the most common com­plaint from recruiters is that students botch their job interviews. Employers want to hire individuals with a self­image that will be an asset to the job.

Shipley says that interviewing students need confidence. Students should know as much as possible about a company before they interview and know what kind of questions the recruiter will ask.

To help the student prepare, mock in­terviews are conducted and recorded on video camera. The all-seeing camera helps the student see his mistakes and avoid them during interviews.

Shipley recommends that students come in for assistance during the spring semester before their final year at sc~ool

because many recruiters give interviews during the fall.

The program consists of workshops to teach students how to prepare a resume and individual counseling to students is also offered.

Every student using the Graduate Placement Service builds a credentials file which contains academic informa­tion, letters of reference from faculty and employers and a resume. The ser­vice will mail a copy of the file anywhere that a student requests and . the files are also available to recruiters.

Another service of the Placement pro­gram is its publication of The Job Store Telegram, a twice monthly newsletter, during the Fall and Spring semesters to list career openings and students with a file are put on its mailing list.

The office also maintains a resource library with annual reports and infor­mation on positions in business, in­dustry, government, education, colleges and universities.

The Placement Office is located in Suite 108 of the Central Classroom Building. Telephone 629-3475. Summer hours are from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mon­day through Friday. During the Fall and Spring semesters they remain open until 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday .

Mens rOoms get new 'fixtures' LOOSE

CONNECTIONS. by Brian C.Offey.Weber

What happens when an administrator with a sense of humor is offered a good deal on a functional - and off beat -apparatus?

In a recent such episode the Auraria Student Center ended up with Restroom Roulette.

With a hearty and infectious laugh George Bailey, ~istant director of the student center, offered an explanation , about where the blue and yellow! pinwheel-like instruments came from . and how they sort of 'dropped in' all the urinals of the student center bathrooms.

"We're in the p~ of updating our. bathrooms," Bailey jokingly said. "And our customers weren't satisfied."

What appears - at first glance - to be a practical joke or a party game is ac­tually a needed and functional piece of restroom equipment; a urinal filter. Bailey says that the new devices serve two purposes.

"We are trying to eliminate people from clogging up the drains by throwing cigarette butts in the urinals," Bailey said. "And we hope that it will keep peo­ple from urinating on the floor."

Functional or not, why Restroom Roulette?

According to Bailey the old and dull ,black filters just, "got up and walked away." "It blows your mind," Bailey con­

tinued. "We don't know what happened to the old ones."

When the time came to replenish the filter flock, Bailey found what he con­sidered to be a "good deal". It seerps that Colorado Chemical Co., that sells Auraria janitorial supplies, had a stock of Restroom Roulettes which were destined to go the way of pet rocks and fly paper.

Bailey, being a frugal sort, bought 48 of the attention getting filters for $3.00 a

Colorado Chemical says that the 'gamey' filters last longer than other types and also have a cherry fragrance. The supplier contends that the idea is to arouse curiousity with the hope that a 'player· will make his deposit in the urinal and not on the floor. Though the filters last longer and are distinctive

Bailey contends the roulette bas been successful in keeping the floors drier (you know the odds are always with the house) and added,

"The guys have been happy with it. They see it and say, 'What the hell is this?' and try to make it work.,,.

For all those unlucky would-be high rollers Bailey reluctantly gives a hi~t.

"If you hit it at the right angle in the lower left hand comer, it will spin counter clockwise."

(The Metropolitan followed Bailey's suggestion and ended up with an embar­rassing, try again.)

Bailey's attempt at thrift and humor has caused him some grief, though.

"Now the women want to know what I'm going to get for them."

MSC·team ·captures .batting title ·· Profemonal baseball is back in action

(if the players can ever get a flight) and baseball fans can catch the last of the

~season's games. . One team who's never gone on strike

or demanded higher salaries (or had any at all) is the MSC Varsity Baseball team.

The team finished the 1981 season with a record of 29 - 19, the best ever for MSC. The team not only set a school

•record; it also won the 1981 NAIA Na­tional Batting Championship with an

outstanding team average of 384. Head coach Bill Helman said: "We

had a super year." The dedication aspect was there. The players worked not only to improve their slcills but their playing ability.

"We built our own dugouts, batting cages. This took months of work. We built bull pins and three indoor pitching mounds. The players and coaches put on a very successful baseball clinic for youths. We raised several thousand dollars to be able to accomplish these .

"We have our best trip planned in MSC's baseball history," Helman. co~­tinued, "we're goin_g to f!y for six days lo St. Petersburg, Florida, over Spring break. This will be a reward for the team. Once again, we will have to finance this with fund raisers. We will have to raise the money ourselves."

Helman gladly espouses about his team's achievements, "I called the radio and television stations. KHOW and KOA gave us air play on the radio but the television and newspapers have done nothing as of yet. I also sent off a letter to Irv Brown at KWBZ. He covers local stuff very well," Helman added.

On the growth of MSC' s Baseball team Helman . pointed out, "Many peo­·ple did not know MSC had a baseball program. This year guys have come to me - that's a first.''

This has been Helman's best recruiting summer ever. Local prep stars such as; Bob Weber, Kennedy, Mark Rolwles, Columbine, Tom Fobes, Longmont, Jeff Blier, T.J., and Dave Panieko of South, have talked with Helman.

"More competition is coming in." Helman said. "We are losing three players from last year's squad due to

graduation; Curt Culver, centerfield, and 1981 MVP, Gary Romero second base and Mark Weber, catcher.

The baseball clinic will be expanded this year and run in February. The team hopes to raise funds through another. jog-a-thon and a possible raffle.

The Fall training ' season will feature twenty-five scrimmages Monday thru Fri~y in October and a weight condi­tioning program the entire fall.

"We will have open tryouts." Helman said. "We're not limited to scholarship players. We will get about seventy players and cut down to thirty-five to forty in the FalJ and cut down to twenty-three in the Spring. That way we have nothing but qualified players on the field.

"Assistants Bob Dampier, Eric Lar­son, Jim Peters and Jim Fahey are the main reasons we could do as much as we did. These guys are dedicated help. They put in hundreds of hours. They wanted to be with it and they did it."

Helman has an enthusiastic outlook for the MSC Baseball team. "The sum­mer scouting has been extensive. I have talked to a lot of guys and the teams go­ing to be very competitive. This shows how fast the program has grown. We have people knocking on the door wan­ting to play."

After much discussion and less conclu­sions, we aren't really sure why our last two pleas for help with the paper fell on deaf ears. We have a few ideas, though. It could be the lack of readers during the summer or maybe, just maybe, no one believed us. We really are sincere and real nice people besides. We certainly hope it's not because no one is reading The Metropolitan. Nab, too unbelievable.

Whatever the reasons we will not give up the fight to get some help in putting out this paper. Maybe we should be more specific about our needs. We need reporters (on both a consistent and not­so-consistent basis), proof readers and people to do some rewrite work and to help out in the office. Also on the editorial side we need a new record and movie reviewer.

Only YOU can prevent further editor-abuse.

Over where the paper is put together, Ron DiRito, our production manager, could use assistance on Mondays and Tuesdays with laying out and pasting up

the paper. He could also use photographers and people to help with camera work done in the production room. He's easy to work with and all the women think he's cute.
