Bye, bye BoettcherThe east wing of the Boettcher Complex a distinctive pre-cast concrete

structure that has served DUs science, engineering and research mission since

1962 has been torn down. The west wing and the auditorium have been

renovated to provide new classroom arrangements and updated with improved

heating, electrical, ventilation and safety systems. Although the DU Board of

Trustees determined that the east side was too damaged to justify furtherinvestment, a group of preservationists from Historic Denver felt otherwise,

fighting to designate Boettcher as a landmark structure, citing its midcentury

Formalist architecture and its regional ties to the aerospace industry and

post-World War II research. Still, the University opposed the designation and

demolition on the building began Sept. 22. Read more about Boettcher and its

history at www.du.edu/today.

National champion ski team visits White House

DUs national championship

ski team visited the White House

Sept. 13 or NCAA Champions Day.

Winning the NCAA champion-

ship and having the president invite

the team to the White House is an

honor that everybody on this team

will always remember, says Nordic

head coach Dave Stewart. It is a

true honor to be recognized by the

president or the teams accomplish-

ments and to represent the University o Denver at our nations capital.

President Barack Obama welcomed to the White House more than 650 student athletes and

150 coaches and sta members rom 32 schools across the nation. Gathering on the White House

south lawn, the president oered his congratulations on the teams 200910 Division I NCAA

championships. Teams rom various sports lined up to participate in this tradition, which was

started by the previous administration.

In addition to congratulating them on their athletic achievements, President Obama acknowl-

edged the athletes scholastic accomplishments, underscoring their ability to make the grades, as

well as the goals, and lend credence to the term student-athlete.

The Pioneers captured their third-straight national skiing title at the 2010 NCAA champion-

ships. It was their 21st national championship overall the most in NCAA history.

Combined with DU hockeys seven national titles, the Pioneers have 28 team national cham-

pionships, the eighth most in NCAA history behind Southern Caliornia (76), UCLA (71), Stanord

(60), Oklahoma State (48), Arkansas (43), Michigan (31), and Penn State (30).

DU attracts record number of Boettcher Scholars

Boettcher Scholars winners of the states most prestigious scholarship are choosing DU

in record numbers.

This fall, the University of Denver welcomed 17 Boettcher Scholars, an institutional record

and a number that brings DUs roster of Boettcher scholars-in-residence to 58.

The Boettcher community here at DU is large and active, and current scholars work

throughout the year recruiting prospective scholars, says Boettcher Mentor Shawn Alfrey, assistant

director of the University Honors Program. Their sincere appreciation for what they experience

as DU students has been a powerful incentive for each class of new scholars.

The Colorado-based Boettcher Scholarship Program began in 1952. The scholarship covers

virtually all expenses, including tuition, books, and a living stipend for students who demonstrate the

potential to make significant contributions and choose to further their education in Colorado. The

Boettcher Foundation awards 40 scholarships each year.

This years scholarship winners were selected from more than 1,300 applicants on the basis of

their academic performance, demonstrated ability, outstanding character and their participation and

leadership in both school and community activities. To qualify, students must rank among the top 5

percent of their graduating class and score at least 1,200 on the critical reading and math sections

of the SAT or 27 on the ACT.

Scholarships cover 12 academic quarters as long as scholars maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA.

While the Boettcher Scholarship ends with the fourth year, DU funds a fifth year for students who

pursue a dual undergraduate and masters degree program.

Approximately 75 percent of scholars take advantage of the numerous dual-degree programs,

Alfrey says.

Scout Troop 5s centennial to mark 100 years

by the book

It isnt a coincidence that the neckerchies o Boy Scout Troop 5 are crimson

and gold, their logo sports a covered wagon and their nickname is the Pioneers.

DU aculty and staers helped orm Troop 5 back in 1910, and the troop has

met in University Hall or the United Methodist Church across South University

Boulevard ever since.

A century later, Troop 5s members are still camping in the snow, hiking14ers, rating rivers, building campres, learning to cook, working a compass,

playing games, singing songs, walking old ladies across the street and earning

merit badges by the hundreds.

They recently celebrated something even more special: the troops 100th

birthday.

Were the oldest continually operating troop west o the Mississippi, says

Scoutmaster Scott Dory, a ormer Eagle Scout rom Colorado Springs, Colo.

Troops elsewhere in the West also claim centennial status this year, with little

absolute proo as to which troop is older, he says. Still, Troop 5 celebrated on

Sept. 11. Were all about the same age, Dory says, noting that the uncertainty

is because Scouting began as a movement, not an organization. Scouting for Boys

was written in 1908 by Robert Baden-Powell as training tips or existing groups.It was released in six parts in Britain and became an instant hit, spawning Scout

groups throughout the world that wanted to try out Baden-Powells ideas.

People started orming troops on their own based on what was in the

book, Dory says, noting that Troop 5

may have started that way.

Today, there are

more than 28 million

S c o u t s i n 1 6 0

countr ies and

t e r r i t o r i e s .

More than 300

million people

h a v e b e e n

Scouts since

the rst 20 boys

gathered in England

in August 1907, and

more than 2 million youths

have become Eagle Scouts, the

groups highest distinction.

Dory acknowledges that Scouting membership has declined a bit over the

years, but he eels optimistic that the movements uture is bright. Outdoor activi-

ties continue to draw boys, many o whom dont get to camp even though they

live in a premier camping state.

Then, too, Scouting stays abreast o the times, oering merit badges inmodern skills and appealing to boys who have other interests and lots o demands

on their time. Its working, Dory says, because Scouting is evolving. But Scouting

also works because it stays tethered to core principles that have appealed to

young people or decades. The Boy Scout Oath and Boy Scout Law, which

emphasize character and tness, havent changed or 100 years.

I met a gentleman who was telling me about being a Scout in the 1930s

and it wasnt much dierent, Dory says. Theyre actually reintroducing historical

merit badges that have been discontinued, such as signaling.

Class of 2010 dedicates peace

pole

Nestled among the pines and evergreens surrounding

DUs Evans Chapel is a peaceul concrete plaza passed by

scores o students, aculty and visitors every day. This is also

the site where the Class o 2010 chose to place and dedicate

its git to DU: a peace pole.

The 10-oot-tall, seven-sided limestone pole eature

the words May peace prevail on Earth in eight dieren

languages.

According to Tuyen Bui, an alumna rom the Class o

2010 and one o the presenters at the dedication, the pole is

both the physical remembrance o the Class o 2010 and anenduring symbol o the values o the University. The pole wi

be erected later this all.

According to Chancellor Robert Coombe, the peace

pole will be a place or students o all races, backgrounds and

cultures to come together.

This amazing git will stand or generations as a lasting

and important part o the University, he said. Peace is one

o the things we all hope or and the desire or it binds us a

together as humans.

About 50 students, aculty, sta and alumni rom th

Class o 2010 attended a dedication Sept. 21, including

Lance Tsosie, who represented the Native American Studen

Alliance and shared a Navajo story about peace.Peace poles are one o the most recognized internationa

symbols o peace in the world. There have been more than

200,000 peace poles placed throughout the world as part o

the World Peace Prayer Societys Peace Pole Project.

The event culminated with a sending orth the

cranes. Students had recently been at the Driscoll Bridge

olding origami cranes, a symbol o peace. Participants at the

dedication were asked to take a crane and pass it on so

that the message o peace continues to grow.

Alums take on Hollywood with their own independent feature

As a DU student, Mardana Mayginnes traveled the so-called

loneliest road in America the Nevada stretch o U.S. 50 between

Caliornia and Utah several times each year as he drove back and

orth between campus and his home in northern Caliornia.

Ater graduation, when Mayginnes (BA English 06) and his college

buddy Colin Michael Day (BA theater 06) moved to Hollywood and

decided to make their own eature lm, Mayginnes already had their

location in mind.I used to drive this [road] to school every year, and I would always

encounter random things that just blew my mind, he says. One o the

towns has 1,000 people in it, but 20 years ago it had 15,000 to 20,000

people because there was an active mine. When that shut down all the

people had to move, so its like a modern-day ghost town.

Mayginnes and Day had moved to Hollywood in 2006 to begin

their careers in show business. Mayginnes got a job at a commercial

production house, where he met a host o people who had come to

Hollywood to make their own lms but had gotten sidetracked by the

daily grind.

In L.A. everyone wants to make a movie, but they dont, Mayginnes says.

The pair decided to try to beat the odds and make their own independent eature. Scripted and directed by Mayginnes and starring Day, The Lonelies

Road in America took a month to shoot and our months to edit, at a total cost o around $100,000. It was shot on location in Colorado, Nevada and

Caliornia.

The lm started making the estival rounds in March 2010, taking a bronze medal at the Park City Film & Music Festival and nabbing screenings a

L.A.s Method Fest, Floridas Delray Beach Film Festival and the Reno Film Festival, among others.

Its done everything or me, Mayginnes says o the lm. I get lots o jobs in the commercial world because o it, and once my next eature is ready

to go Ill be able to get unding, no doubt about it. And Ill get actors as well. Theyll be down because they know I can do it.

Social network Foursquare not for squares

Take a walk around the University o Denver and youll see signs everywhere pointing out places tostudy, ino on tness memberships and even a special on ice cream.

O course, the signs are invisible to the naked eye. Savvy travelers need a WiFi-connected device o

a smart phone with GPS and the Foursquare application. Turn on, tune in and join the conversation.

Foursquare is one o the social media apps changing the media landscape. Instead o depending on

proessional reporters to alert others to a good deal or a ne restaurant, social media users turn to each

other. Yelp and TripAdvisor, or example, create giant databases o user-generated comments and reviews

Foursquare with about 3 million users does that, too. But instead o requiring a user to sit down at

a computer and type in a location or desired service, Foursquare lets users turn on the application and see

whats around them based on their location.

Foursquare users walking the DU campus can check in at the Penrose Library. Once there, tips

section user Joseph K. (users are only identied by a rst name and an initial) suggests checking out the

extensive DVD collection.

Foursquare users can check in at marked locations, indicating to riends where they are or have been, and then upload those check-ins to othe

social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Check in enough at one site and become the mayor o that location.

Users around campus suggest light rail as the best route to the Ritchie Center, discuss alternate memberships or swimmers who want to use the E

Pomar Natatorium without a ull tness center membership, and recommend the excellent spicy chicken bowl deal at the Tokyo Bowl restaurant. I spic

chicken doesnt sound good, Paul D. suggests the chicken kabob sandwich at Petes University Park Ca up the street.

And there are deals or Foursquare users only. At the Ben and Jerrys ice cream store near campus, users can check in and unlock a secret discount

a buy-one-get-one cone deal. The mayor o Ben and Jerrys gets a ree extra scoop to boot.

And then theres always school work.

Need a quick place to stop and do some brie work? asks Peter R. Check the second-story alcove overlooking the commons and hang out with

the fags.

Erin Bleakley wants women to show off their inner beautyby expressing it on the outside. Its about makingpeople feel confident, Bleakley says of the aim of her self-

made fashion label, Erin Kathleen Couture.

The 21-year-old University of Denver senior saysconfidence was something she, like many women, had to

learn. Now, youll see her strut across campus in vibrant

colors, textured patterns and high, high heels.

Everywhere I go, people stare, she admits. But thats

OK with her. In fact, it gives her a chance to tell people about

her clothing line. Thats how she got the idea to start her line

in the first place.

A lot of people would ask where I got my clothes,

and Id tell them I made it, she says. So then I started

making dresses for formals, and I started making a 16-piece

collection, and people started to buy them.

Now shes completed the fourth collection for her line.

She sells the clothes online at www.erinkathleencouture.comas well as in a handful of boutiques in Colorado and Texas.

Bleakley says she had trouble finding well-fitting and

flattering clothes for her thin, yet athletic, build. So she

simply started making her own, and later formed Erin

Kathleen Couture in 2008. She had financial backing from

her father, but her parents still had their doubts.

They thought every girl wants to be a fashion designer,

Bleakley says. They asked me how I was going to set myself

apart.

She knew a little hard work and optimism wouldnt

hurt. I have an idea for what people like and what looks

good, she says. It took off from there.

Her line which targets mostly 1735-year-olds was envisioned as consisting of conservative pieces that are

really cute and stand out but have a certain sexiness about

them. She thinks about what she would wear and thats

what she designs. Think faux fur vests, tunics, leggings and

patterned jackets; all items run under $100.

The items are what Bleakley calls young, alluring and

flirty. Some are fitting, some are flow-y and all of them have

color. Her clothes also are one-size-fits-all.

You dont believe it until you see it, but a lot of my

pieces have hidden elastic and smocking and one skirt in

particular can fit anything from a [size] zero to a 12 or 14.

The sizing was her idea, as are all of her designs. She makes a special effort to find unique fabric, she says, and shes constantly

thinking of new ideas. Her notebooks and binders are filled with sketches; she takes her camera wherever she goes so she can snap shots

of landscape or anything she considers beautiful that may provoke design ideas. She finds Colorado particularly inspirational, she says.

She sends her sketches to two seamstresses who live outside Kansas City, Bleakleys hometown. They make just a handful of each

design and they almost always sell, Bleakley explains.

After she graduates from DU, Bleakley plans to go to fashion school in Los Angeles to learn more of the basics and the industry and

hopes to work under another designer while still designing herself.

One thing that sets her apart, she says, is her pending undergraduate degree.

Im doing the whole college thing I did go to undergrad, I joined a sorority. Im getting a business degree. I didnt just go to

fashion school. I learned the basics first, she says, and I think that impresses people.

Lots of students leave DU with dreams of careers practicing lawor starting companies or producing Hollywood blockbusters.Jamie Dick wants to make a career out of turning left.

Dick, a senior real estate and construction management major

from Albuquerque, N.M., says very matter-of-factly that hed liketo get to paid to race cars a goal hes been driving toward since

he was 10 years old. And he hasnt let off the gas needed to obtain

the goal since enrolling at DU, either.

I would like to end up with a multi-million dollar contract

with a NASCAR team, Dick says. Id like to race as long as I can.

In a couple of years, if Im not able to get paid, Ill have to stop. But

thats down the road.

Dick started his racing career on small dirt tracks around

Albuquerque in go-karts and then worked his way up through more

competitive racing series and bigger cars. Although Dick hasnt

won a race recently, he has been able to string together enough

strong finishes to try out newer and tougher racing series.

Dick currently races in two of the National Association o

Stock Car Auto Racings (NASCAR) minor league series. During

the 2010 racing season, Dick has driven in NASCARs K&N West

series, which is based primarily in the Western United States and

features cars that are slightly smaller than those driven by stars

like Dale Earnhardt Jr. or Tony Stewart. Hell also compete in the

nationwide Camping World Truck series, which feature souped-up

trucks with lots of horsepower and lots of talent behind the wheel

Dicks goal is to compete on NASCARs, and perhaps all of racings

biggest stage, the Sprint Cup.

Ever since I showed some promise in go-karts the plan was

to push me ahead, Dick explains. Part of the plan was not to stay

in a series too long and get complacent.

Mike Naake, crew chief and manager of Dicks racing team

has been in stock car racing for more than 25 years and says Dick

has the talent to get to racings upper echelons. But its something

Dick will have to attack with utmost dedication.

Out of a thousand, only one gets through. Its a tough sport,

Naake says from the team shop in Roseville, Calif. You have to be

in the right place at the right time. And you need off-track skills

to help you attract money.

In addition to working as the main mechanic for Dicks

car and training the pit crew, Naake acts as a kind of coach tothe 21-year-old driver. Hes tried to get Dick to become more

aggressive in his driving style. Stay up on the wheel and go fast

Naake tells Dick, just dont wreck the car. Naake has even resorted

to a little tomfoolery to drive his point home.

Weve told him to get mad and told him that one of the guys is taking his girlfriend out for dinner that night, Naake recalls with

a laugh.

Right now, Dick is getting a little help from dad when it comes time to pay for a competitive racing team. In return, Jimmy Dick

a former race driver himself plasters the side of Jamies cars with the colors of Viva Automotive Group, a chain of car dealerships he

owns in El Paso, Texas.

Ghosts of DU

In celebration o Halloween this month, here are some o the most haunted tales and buildings at

the University o Denver, according to historian Phil Goodstein (BA history 75):

Mary Reed Building and Margery Reed Hall might both be haunted by their namesakes.

Margery Reed has supposedly been haunting actors or decades in the building that, until recently,

housed DUs theater program. Students have claimed strange whispering and echoes.

Mary Reed hersel has been spotted wandering the hallways o her namesake building. Some have

complained o sudden cold drats, others say lights turn on and o sporadically. And people may not know

which foor theyll end up on (or i they will) when in the buildings elevator. Mary Reed may have control

o the buildings lit, which is the oldest working elevator in the state.

Henry Buchtel, who acted as a DU chancellor and Colorado governor, doesnt seem to like people

throwing parties in his ormer residence, the historic Buchtel House. Guests say theyve experienced

cold breezes, thumping noises and slamming doors.

Campuss old Buchtel Chapel also was most likely haunted which could be why it mysteriously burned down in the 1980s.

Gubernatorial candidates make their cases in campus political forum

John Hickenlooper and Dan Maes were quick to discuss the poor state o

Colorados economy and high unemployment rates in a candidates orum at

the University o Denver on Sept. 14. But the big question was just what they

would do about the issues i elected governor.

Every single part o the state is upside down, said Hickenlooper, the

Democratic nominee, during his hour-long session o questions rom talk show

host and moderator Aaron Harber. Maes waited ostage while the Denver mayo

addressed his answers to a crowd o roughly 300 people; Maes ollowed.Hickenloopers ultimate solution to prompt economic recovery is being a

proponent o business.

We need to change our culture so we can be a magnet or sma

businesses, he said. He added that its imperative to work with small busines

to uphold ethical and environmental standards.

Helping businesses grow, he said, means helping them to get started, hire

people and grow more rapidly. I we can do that, it allows us to ocus on some

o the real critical issues that need more attention, like education, he said.

Maes agreed that small businesses were key to the success o the state bu

expressed his desire or a hands-o approach by downsizing state government. Lowering taxes on small businesses would help them thrive and create

more jobs. Eighty percent o the states business is small business, Maes said.

Sponsored by the Colorado Cross-Disability Coalition and 36 other community advocacy organizations, the orum also emphasized concern

o people with disabilities.

Around 20 percent o Coloradans have some sort o disability, and ewer than hal o those had jobs even when the economy was healthy.

Hickenlooper said he would take on the states disability problem as he did Denvers homelessness problem when he took oce in 2003.

Fighting or the homeless to get housing, medication, counseling and job training proved more eective than just treating their physical ailment

at a hospital and then putting them back on the streets, he said. Hickenlooper said as mayor he encouraged smaller businesses, such as caes, to give

jobs to homeless people.

Maes told the disabled people in the audience that we need more o a dialogue than an answer. He said there needs to be less o a tax burden

or them and their care, but also encouraged them to step up.

Maes encouraged them to tell him and other government ocials exactly what they need, and said he would work to champion those

causes. He also expressed his intent to help x the disconnect between educational and business communities and help all community members

disabled and otherwise to nd out what skill sets are in demand by employers and what kind o education will give them those skills.

While Hickenlooper reerred to his experience as Denver mayor throughout the aternoon, Maes, a political unknown until his nomination in

August, partly used the orum to explain his background and political ideals.The act that I am standing beore you today as the Republican nominee or governor states that the American dream is alive and well in the

state o Colorado, Maes said. And government should not impede that dream. The government should get out o your way and provide you tha

dream. I I can do it, you can do it, too.

Tom Tancredo, the American Constitution Party candidate, was invited to the orum but was unable to participate due to a previous

commitment.
