News It's a nice· law, but •••

by Rosanne Simborski ,__ ___ _ Colorado National Guard members

are eligible for a tuition waiver, but so far it's all talk and no money.

A tuition waiver bill for Colorado National Guard members was passed by the Colorado legislature last July with no money to activate the program.

Senate Bill 55, sponsored by Sen. Hugh Fowler (R-Littleton) allows Color­ado National Guard members reduced or free tuition at designated state schools.

Fowler said the program was not funded, however, because money was not available after passage of the State Ap­propriations BilJ (the Long Bill). Accord­ing to Fowler, the Long Bill first budgets existing legislation.

"After existing programs were fun­ded, we had $10 million to cover $800 million in requests,'' Fowler said.

The $10 milJion was divided between the House and Senate. Bills requiring ap­propriation were then set up by priority. The amount requested to activate SB-55 was $58,000.

According to Fowler, SB-55 had high priority but after reviews of requests for large amounts of money, such as $400 million f~r a pension fund for policemen and firemen, no money was left for the tuition waiver bill. , -

Fowler said he was optimistic that the tuition waiver program would be. funded during the current legislative session:

"Right now, it looks very br~ght," he said.

Lindsay Baldner, assistant executive director for student services on the staff of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, said $58,000 is the initial cost for 200 National Guard members to ben­efit from SB-55. Once the program is in progress, its annual cost will be $200,000, she said.

Col. Don David, support staff offi­cer for the Colorado Air National Guard, said the tuition waiver bilJ has a dual pur­pose:

"It will help the National Guard membership and will increase enrollment {or schools that are underenrolled. ''

David said he has received several hundred inquiries about the tuition waiver program and new recruits are waiting for funds to become available.

MSC is among the designated schools listed in SB-55. The other institu­tions are: University of Southern Color­ado, Adams State College, Mesa College, Fort Lewis College, and all community colleges governed by the State Board for Community Colleges and Occupational Educa!ion.

This 'new kid' has a few new ideas

Dr. Michael Howe is the newest addition to the MSC administration. He resigned as Dean of Continuing Education .

at the University' of San Francisco (where a colleague was MSC President Donald Macintyre) to become.MSC Vice

President of Academic Affairs. Howe says the missions of MSC present a challenge he looks forward to grappling with.

The new kid on the block says he feels very strongly about a lot of things.

The thing of it is, he'd like to see these things implemented through facilitation and cooperation rather than via the ba,seball bat over the head method.

Dr. Michael Howe officially became vice president of academic affairs for MSC last December following the resig­nation of Dr. Richard Netzel. Howe had been dean of continuing education for the University of San Francisco, a pri­vate, church-related institution in that city.

"The major difference, of course, is that I'm chief academic officer for a whole college and not just a school," Howe said. "Which is, for me, a chal­lenge and extremely desirable.''

At USF, Howe~ moved, as he des­cribed it, from the faculty trenches to the administration ("which is just a deeper trench, I think sometimes").

"And one of my fondest desires," he said, ''has been to work within insti­tutions that are attempting to deal with the needs of the student-based population rather than, if you will, dealing with the particular needs the institution has."

by Lou Chapman

He believed USF did this, but the University was too limited as a liberal arts institution. He was looking for a school with a wider mission to its community and one that had more technical or pro­fessional fields of study.

Howe is the second recent .recruit to MSC from the University of San Fran­cisco. MSC President Donald Macintyre was vice president of academic affairs at USF while Howe was that university's dean of continuing education. Macintyre

tution which had a m1ss1on within the metropolitan area of Denver which was really unlike the mission of most urban institutions. And that is, it was to serve ihe metropolitan area of Denver. .. and that to me was the most exciting area."

At USF, Howe developed degree programs throughout the San Francisco Bay area, the Sacramento Valley, and in Los Angeles. The average age of students in this school was 35. He worked also on several advisory boards in the

became president at MSC in June 1979 . . "I considered MSC to have one of

the most exciting mandates of any insti­tution in this country," Howe said. "That is, a mandate to work in an envi­ronment where there's two other institu­tions, and do it cooperatively, which I think in the 1980s is going to be de­manded more · and more because of the fact that bricks and mortar are expensive.

''In addition, I saw MSC as an insti-

community that dealt with social services and cotnmunity hospital programs.

"And I will try to get as soon as possible involved in programs in the Denver metropolitan area which look at the same kinds of issues and concerns," Howe said.

"I feel very strongly that an institu­tion of higher education has a responsi­bility to not only provide education re­sources to the . c:C?m~unjty. _And I

consider myself part ·or that resource. And I consider the rest of the institution part of that resource ... "

"Unless I'm being put on all along, I get a sense on the part of the faculty that they really are committed to servicing the communit~ at Metro."

But, Howe admits, changes will be made, changes in various ways in various areas.

"In a sense, after I came here, looked, talked, I found that there was a desire to do that (serve the metropolitan area) but the· ability to do it and the fact of the matter is that we haven't delivered as much as~ we could have or should have ...

"I feel very strongly that this basic institution is very strong," Howe said. "And needs only some help, facilitation if you will, on my part. There will be changes, I'm sure there will be changes. As to what they are and how they will go, it's really premature for me to state."

But I:Iowe did say whatever changes are made will be with the full considera­tion of faculty and staff input.

"The deans," he said, "will be dele­gated the vast majority of the responsi­bilities of decision making (and) will be

evaluated basically on their ability to achieve the goals that they have set for

_.,. themselves or their schools have set for them. I feel very strongly about that. I'm a cooperative model person.''

Howe said he doesn't like giving orders, doesn't give them well, and if he must deliver an order, it's probably a bad sign.

"If I have to give an order, that means· that the individual more than

- student both, as to the success or the Jack thereof in the classroom," Howe.added. . .

"I look forward to developing more programs which will service the needs within the instituion as well as

likely-isn't going to work for me for very long, because I believe in independence.''

Howe implied that changes will prob~bly be made in faculty evaluation, student evaluation procedures, services provided to the community, centering the various community programs at MSC, and also in the basic purposes of general education and evaluating how all of these items achieve the goals they are meant to.

Concerning faculty evaluation changes, Howe said he is. waiting for the report of a faculty committee studying the problem.

"I and the President (Macintyre) will of course look very carefully at the

"So what you're trying to do is develop a model of evaluation which gives feedback in such a way that it can help development. And I feel very strongly about that."

Howe believes that upon graduation, a student should have reached minimum standards and that these standards, regardless of the field of study, are measurable.

''One of the things I did while I was at the other institution is establish com­petency levels for students leaving the program," Howe said. "And those com­petency levels were .not magic. They could be easily articulated and all the

The Metropolitan February 20, 1980 5

faculty helped in establishing them. "I believe that the institution should

be able to point at .its students when they leave and say, this student is competent in these particular areas."

Whether or not, or when, competen­cy testing for students will be established at MSC is another question-a practical more than a theoretical question.

"Well, I'm hoping," Howe said. "If you will, I'm a new kid on the block, right? And I get in and r have all these ideas and everybody goes,. oh no, another one of these turkeys ... 1'11 try to convince folks that these ideas, some of these ideas, they can use in the develop­ment of programs, the development of evaluation models.

"But," Howe said, "on the other hand they are only my ideas, and as I said before, I don't believe that I can say, 'this idea will be implemented,' and assume that.it will be implemented. People have to agree."

Howe said MSC has many reasons to aggressively pursue education within the community, reasons that range from the legal mandate set down by the State legis­lature to the moral resolution because of the physical location of the college in the

"We should be able," he said, "to point to our students and our students should be able to point to themselves and to us and say, I went to MSC and received this and it wasn't just a parti­cular degree in business or engineering technology, but I recieved this kind of education. ' ,

"And I think the chairman (of the liberal arts department) tended to agree with this, that it might be well for us to review our own mission and goals as it related to core requirements.''

Howe emphasized this does not necessarily mean an increase or decrease in core requirements, but that the admin­istration should be able to say exactly why students take courses or why they should take certain courses.

"As an urban institution," Howe explained, "we should be able to give the students a broader perspective than the perspective they arrived at the institution with (through) courses that are set up for the purposes of broadening the educa­tional biography of the student."

One of Howe's projects, which he was working on before he came to MSC, is a transfer program between Chaing Hai .. Normal University in China and an

world and their impact upon our world.'' .

city. "We have a responsibility to aggres­

sively offer programs ... that will in fact service the needs both for Chicano students as for white students who need to know about the nature of particular

"' cultural groups in this society. And this is § not to pass judgment on the Chicano u. studies or the Afro-American studies or

any other program. "It is basically to say we have an in­

credible amount of resources here at MSC and I look forward to developing more programs which will service the needs within the institution as well as outside of the institution. And I think that Dr. Macintyre has indicated that he firmly believes in that."

"We have-a servke function and we must achieve that service function in the metropolitan area. That's our mandate," Howe said.

"The institution really has .made a committment. It needs to make more of a committment, no doubt about it.. .MSC is needed because of the kinds of things we do, not only inside these walls but outside them. And we're going to do more things outside them ...

"The trouble is that a lot of it is dis­parate. In other words it spins out here, and people don't understand the level of committment the institution has had already, and that it should be shared more ...

"The point is, we're fanned out like this," and he spread his arms full length out to each side.

''And often times people don't understand it's Metropolitan State College doing this. We need a better iden­tification level."

Howe said he talked recently with the department chairmen and is beginning to get a sense of "who they are and what they're doing." He said he believes MSC should be able to offer students a unique course of study, should be able to separate itself from other insti­tut~ons.

American institution. The American institution will be MSC, and the exchange will involve faculty from tbe Chinese university and, later, students from MSC. He hopes to have the project underway next fall. .

Although Howe agreed that higher education is in a trend toward profession­al studies, he sees it as a pendulum, and hoped it will soon center.

"Hopefully, the pendulum, the swing, the arches are- not so great," Howe said. "I hope, and I think most educators hope, the students realize that the need for English, the need for history, the need for philosophy, the need ·for the basic liberal arts, is a real one ... and that in this bearing witness to their own pro­fessions, whether it be a pilot for Frontier Airlines or a major mogul for Arco­Webster, they begin to realize they're not just in Denver ...

An education should liberate them so they begin to realize the differing values and cultural mores across the world and their impact upon our world. I

·think it is absolutely essential for us to get that kind of educational reality.''

Howe took a deep breath, said he is still getting used to the altitude in Denver. He and his family are native San Fran­ciscans.

In the course of an hour, Howe had spoken about the need to take resources to the Denver community, to realize the very real chore of MSC to provide an education to the Metropolitan area and yet, at the same time, to accept as essen­tial the need to· realize there is another

.world out there, a world we are part of and must relate to, like the exchange with a Chinese university, and the trouble of being the new kid on the block and trying to fit in at the same time.

"Experience wifl give students the ability to make good, sound decisions not only for themselves and their families, but for the community around them, which I think is very, very important. ..

"I feel very strongly about it."

Why must I pay to park my car or motorcycle on Auraria?

Wha·t is being done to improve the campus parking system?

How can I help improve campus parking operations?

What does the Auraria Parking Off ice provide?

Because by law no state funds (not a penny) can be used to maintain campus areas (such as snow-plowing the lots, repairing equipment, sweeping parking areas) or operate any facet of the campus parking system {paying personnel, buying office supplies).

Because over $300,000 in principal and interest charges must be paid each year on the $3.5 million borrowed in 1975 to construct campus parking facilities. Plus about $180,000 a year must be spent on. essential (no frills) operating expenses - for services, supplies and wages. And operating costs continue to go up every day.

. Many things have bee~ done in the past 8 months to make parking operations better. Much remains to be done. Steps are being taken under a master pla~ approved by the Aur~ria Board of Directors to upgrade all aspects of the parking system. Improvements coming up include:

1. Placing automatic parking gate systems in certain lots. 2. Installing attractive parking attendants' booths on selected lots. 3. Computerizing the parking citalion management system.

Anyone on campus can be a big help by making suggestions to the Parking Office or your institutional representative on the Auraria Parking Advisory Counci l. (Each school has several individuals to represern students, staff and faculty on the council. Contact the Parking Office for the names of institutional representatives.)

1. Wide variety of parking rate& and locations to serve the needs of everyone on campus.

2. Close, reasonably price parking. 3. Supervised parking in the most heavily used lots. 4. Special services: Power boosters in attendants' huts in lots P and Q

'Cruising' ~ompelling despite its flaws ,

by Lou Chapman . CRUISING. Starring Al Pacino, Paul Sorvino, and Karen Allen. Written and Directed by William Fried­kin. At the Brentwood Four, Buckingham Five, Colorado Four, Havana Drive-In, Lakeside, and Westminster Six.

It's the same old story: a series of gruesome murders in New York; a simple patrolman gets elevated to detective status to go undercover; the cop gets more deeply involved in the world he has entered and becomes freaky and unsure of himself; the mystery is finally solved, we think; and the movie ends.

This movie, however, has a few twists:

The gruesome murders are graphic­ally displayed in process and afterward, complete with blood baths and parts of bodies laid out on the coroner's table.

The cop is made a detective for merely the most unlikely of reasons: his size.

The world the cop enters is the heavy-leather, chain, sweat, and crew-cut sado-masochistic homosexual ghetto of New York's Lower West Side.

that makes him unsure of his sexuality, his motives, and his abilities .

And, when the movie ends, it seems to keep going, to continue unfolding, even when the credits begin to roll and the lights come up.

Cruising is haunting. Although its setting is a piece of America most people, including most homosexuals, never know or want to learn about, and despite the gore, the skimpy script and the tell-tale storyline, something in Cruising is com­pelling-and it is something beyond the movie-goer's usual fascination with the wierd and the bloody.

William Friedkin wrote the screenplay, and directed Cruising. Fried.kin seems to have learned something from his previous directorial jobs: The Exorcist, The French Connection, and The Boys in the Band. This one seems to combine all three and go a few steps farther.

Cruising is based on actual murders investigated in New York in the 1960s and 1970s, and the work of -one under­cover cop who helped solve some of them. They were murders of homosex­uals who frequented the Lower West Side and some of the victims were well known New York socialites.

Al Pacino as undercover cop Steve Bums: always in the shadows, the darkness It is also a study-admittedly

shallow and one-sided-of the world of the S-M homosexuals in that part of New York, including the bars and private clubs with their sex and punk music and masses of gyrating macho bodies, the cops of the fifth and sixth precincts, and the men who pose as cops to demand money or sexual favors from homosex~ uals in exchange for not "busting" them.

Al Pacino is effective as patrolman Steve Burns who is thrown into this world. Pacino's cognitive metamorphosis and his adaptability to his new environ­ment seem natural, if sometimes too easily done with an obvious "meaning­ful" gesture or give-away line.

The trouble is that the script is too simple to carry the full import of what PacinQ tries to do with the problem of personality fragmentation within the patrolman. None the less, the film has a constant feeling of slipping deeper and • deeper into the lower depths of humanity and personal reasoning.

This is the strength of the film. Through his choreography and direction, and with th.e music of Jack Nitsche, Friedkin seems to have the audience always in the shadows, the darkness, the subliminal. This carries over to the personalities and mannerisms of Pacino and even Paul Sorvino, who plays his captain on the force, Captain Edelson. As the tension of the story mounts, there is a sense of sinking deeper into the depths of the world being visited, and ,; int-o the possible disorder developing within the cop himself.

Friedkin combines the physical world of West Side subterranean clubs, Central Park tunnels, and dark, wooded areas, with the psychological world of the undercover cop, the shedding of older ' ways of thinking, the pulling away like a shin splint from the moorings one thought one had.

Unfortunately, Pacino's style can't carry the film alone, and he gets no help / from what has. been given in the script to his girlfriend Nancy, played by Karen ~ Allen. She, like the other supporting characters, is a boring foible for Pacino's changes. Also, the murderer is too easily unmasked in piecemeal fashion with no believable reason for the killer to have done what he did.

Lorber is a kt:yboard man who has mastered the styles of Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea and Joe Zawinul. The open-

.. ing number, "Funky Gospel," is in the Crusaders vein. Next, Lorber envelopes the Herbie Hancock sound in "Glisten,"

liEtided by the tight Harvey Mason-style drums of Dennis Bradford. There is a section here that echoes the simple elegance of Hancock's 1974 masterpiece, ''Chameleon.''

"Deva Samba" brings us Chick Corea in a percussion-based samba that

I'

features Lorber's mastery of the Rhodes piano and various synthesizer voices. "Terry's Lament" features saxist Terry Layne in a George Benson style nightclub number. Lester McFarland's quick, funky bass is neatly offset by a half-temp piano and drums lead.

"Lift-Off" kicks off side two with the fresh melody and open sound paten­ted by Spirogyra. The next three pieces are more Eastern influenced, with ele­ments of Miles Davis, Weather Report and Mahavishnu Orchestra coming through. On "River Winds," a Maha­vishnu-style phrasing of bass, drums and keyboards (see "Dance_ of the Maya" on Inner Mounting Flame) is planted as the roots over which Lorber executes a stun­ning display that is as economic as it is tight.

Despite all the styles and moods bor­rowed from fusion trendsetters, Lorber's arrangements are his own. The band doesn't rely on speed or sheer volume to impress us-a mistake early fusioners made. Instead, they display their virtuosity by sticking to the essentials: rhythm, tempo, melody and that intan­gible chemistry that keeps us interested.

Lorber records on the small, New York-based Inner City label. This con­scientious jazz recording company has no qualms about giving us nearly 49 minutes of music (be thankful when the large labels get over 40 minutes on art album). The recording is excellent, creating an intimate club-like atmosphere and a crystal-clear sound.

FUN AND GAMES Chuck Mangione Chuck Mangione - flugelhorn, piano,

_ Pinocch-io for children at UCO With the aid of specially made

masks, UCD's production of Pinocchio ~l feature five actors playing nine roles.

The masks, a cat, a fox, a balding, _pink-faced man and a distorted one-eyed ''Fire-Eater,'' will help round out the character demands based on Carlo Collodi's original novel.

Following six appearances at Auraria beginning Feb. 21, the play will be performed at the Children's Museum of Denver. The company's ten-week run at the museum is possible because, unlike other university theater companies, UCD's is professional.

"We pay our performers and ...production people a stipend," Bowles said. "And beyond the Children's Museum, we have engagements by regional public schools and official city " invitations (Englewood, Lafayette and Loveland)."

The company, called One Misty .Moisty Morning, had gre~t success last 1all with Snow White. "We sold out-at, Auraria and, all-told, played to over 5,000 at over fifty performances last year," Bowles said. "I can't emphasize enough the need for reservations because last year some people were not able to

_,;ecure seats for Snow White." ' The Auraria performances are Feb. 21 and 22 at 7:30 p.m., Feb. 23 at 10:30 a.m., Feb. 28 and 29 at 7:30 p.m. and

March l at 10:30 a.m. The performances will be held in

Room 278 of the Arts Building and refreshments wtU be served at a reception following each performance. Admission is $1.00 for everyone, payable at the door, and reservations can be made by calling 629-2730, Monday-Friday.

* * The ABC logo fades off and the top of a white mountain appears on the screen. As the helicopter shows its dizzy­ing desce~t to the Olympic Village, a lone flugelhorn belts out the soft, disco-tinged strains of' 'Give It All You Got.''

This tune, folks, was commissioned by ABC Sports and the man behind the horn is Chuck Mangione. And why not cut an album, too. Just play the same tune twice, add four more cuts and call the album Fun and Games.

Hot on George Benson's heels, Chuck Mangione is the master of jazz­muzak. Exactly where his material ends and where Montovani, KLIR and piped­in music begin is uncertain. Needless to say, his rambling, time-consuming tunes are great for the vast TV wasteland.

Actually, this album could have been a lot worse. Mangione Company (they're all one big happy family, just like on the Memorex commercials) really don't feel on the spot here as they did on Mangione's major flop, Children of Sanchez. Of course, there's nothing new added to the old formula but there are some relaxed solos by guitarist Grant

Geissman and reed-man Chris Vadala. . The lead tune for ABC is repeated as

"Give It All You Got, But Slowly," which is, you got it, the lead tune at a. slower tempo. "Pina Colada" begins with some drums and vocals interchanges that wear thin on repeated listenings.

Probably the biggest mistake U.S. athletes can do this winter is to get an overdose of the ABC tune. It certainly doesn't inspire you to give it all you got.

MSC baseball has big hopes

The team is an "independent" but plays in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference. The conference includes the University of Colorado, Wyoming, Air Force and Grand Canyon College.

Helman said they beat the bigger teams of CU and Air Force last year, and Air Force almost went to the nationals.

Players returning this year are Jim Fahey'· Gary Romero, Jack Gandy, Curt Culver, Diz Dillizzi, Mark Weber and Don Williamson.

This is Helman's second year as coach of the Roadrunner · team. His primary job at MSC is director of intra­murals. Before coming to Metro he spent nine years in the Air Force as a computer

Coming off their best record ever at 18-27 last year, the MSC baseball team is aiming for a better record and is looking to go to the regional tournament this year.

"Even though we have a schedule that might be above our heads," said Bill Helman, coach of the MSC baseball team, "I'll expect we'll have a winning season."

"I've only been coaching ball as long- ti as I've been here," Helman said. "So· :S what I lack in experience, I make up in o

Student's Signature

two or three men at each position. "I think the students and Denver

area people will be surprised at the grade of baseball that's played al MSC," said Bob Daopiur, assistant coach. "It's not as bush as people make it out to be."

Daopiur said the caliber and hustle is much higher than what he expected; the team is very "receptive" to coaching and they really want to win.

Although the team has had OI_lly one practice outside Helman felt it would not be a problem because other teams they will play are in the same position.

Helman said the success of the team is because of the team's enthusiasm.

"We have an indoor batting cage and a nylon outfield fence, which the players partially funded through car washes, T-shirt sales and requesting

'

donations," he said. Helman said the team's goal this.

year is to go to the regional tournament in Cedar City, Utah. As an independent, MSC is eligible, depending on its record.

"My long-range goal is to be the best team in the state,'' Helman said.

The Roadrunner's first game will be, Saturday, Feb. 23, against the University of Denver. Other than Regis, DU will be MSC's main competition for the regionals.
