A crowd celebrates around a bonfire in larimer Square follorving a Broncos Superbowl win in 1999, Auraria policeare preparing to ensure no damage wil l occur on campus if the Colorado Avalanche wins the Stanley Cup.

Auraria police chiefJoe Oniz hopes theColorado Avalanche will repeat is StanleyCup win this year. He also hopes some fanswill not repeat their performances if thehockey team wins the championship,

Ortiz said the Auraria police is makingplans to deter rioting on campus if theAralanche win the Stanley Cup.

"!fe would suppose if history proves itself once again, (funs) will be doing downtown to celebrate," he said. "t!(e wouldassume it's probably not going to be asweep, so we're planning for the last games. "

In 1998, after the Denver Broncos won

"Clearly, the officers' presence made abig difference for us," she said.

OnD said the Auraria Police will adoptthe same strategy it used after the 1999Superbowl if the Avalanche wins.

"We put our staff on nodce that they'resubject to a call in," he said. Oniz said thepolice will also limit the amount of parkingon campus for the Pepsi Center and positionofficers at Auraria Parkway and SpeerBoulevard to block people from coming oncampus.

"Ve'll assign extra staff to monitor thecrowd," Oniz said. Additionally, the Aurariapolice will work with Denver police tocontrol the crowds.

mffiThere will be more people at Metro this

summer compared with last year."Summer enrollment numbers are

looking good," said Metro spokeswomanDebbie Thomas. According to preliminaryrepons, enrollment is up 12 percent over last]su, Thomas said.

"Some of ttnt will likely change benveennow and the actua.l census date," she said."Ve're so hr ahead now dut people are farlyoptimistic about this summer in terms of

'enrollment."

Three years ago, a booming job market

was believed to be drawing people away fromenrolling for summer clases. Enrollment in1998 droppd to 5159 students-7.7 percentfrom the previous year. Tlpically, more than17,000 students enroll during the hll andspring semesters.

"There was some changes made as a resultof that," Thomas said, The college assembleda ask force led by Mike Barneu, asistant vicepresident of Business Alfairs. The collegehgan offering classes ntrich meet nro dap aweek, and changed class times. "Ve've alsodone a lot more advenising," Thomas said,"Not only trying to promote it with newstudents, but more imponantly, remindingour current students they can take classes in

the summer" Thomas said the collegeallocated benreen $25,000 and $30,000 foradvertising the summer semester throughdirect mailers,

"Ve thought that would be succesful,"Thomas said.

Metro senior Sabina Durmisi said sheusually takes summer classes to graduatesooner, and to lighten her class load duringthe spring and fall.

"lfyou want to learn from a clas, you haveto reflect,'' she said. "lf I want to do bemer in aclass, I have to uke some of the load off Plus,it won't be a boring summer I'll havesomething to read."

Compus police prepqre for possible moyhemfollowing hockey chqmpionships

Sean Weaver the Superbowl, rioters caused $25,000 ofdamage - from tipped garbage cans, tobusted windows in the parking garage andTivoli - to the Auraria Campus,

"The first )'ear we didn't correctlyestimate the number of people," ortiz said."lt caught us by surprise." The next yeilr, thecampus was spared after the Broncos wonthe Superbowl.

"Since we secured all the lots, we got aleg up on them, so they kept driving aroundor found somewhere else to park. Thesecond year, since we didn't allow them oncampus, it wasn't a problem."

Tivoli director Barbara Veiske said thesecond year, the Auraria police were verycoordinated in dealing with the crowds.

Some group uy this increase is not oroughfor students who frce the high cosa of attendingcollege.

lizcey King, U.S. fublic Interest ResearchGroups' Higher Education associate said theadditional money for kll Grans is not suffcientconsiderhg the ercr-increasing cost of a collegeeducation.

Ihe increase will g,e only a maximum of all00 increase to students, King uid.

The Student Aid Alliance - a malition of morethan 50 student and university group supportingincrgased federal funding for financial aid -proposed a $500 increase in individual Pell Grans.

Now the maximum ralue of a kll Gmnt is$3,750. Their increase would bring the maximumwlue to $4,350.

ltr Student Aid Alliance also proposed a

program tunding, from 1691 to $791 million.Bushl budget also proposed increasing

resourca for disadvanaged students, including anincrease in TRIO and funding to traditionallyAfrican-American and Hispanic educadonalinstitutions.

"President Bush and I are especiallyconcemed about the deep, pemistent andunaccepuble gaps in achierrment between poorand minority studens and drir more advanmgedpen," hige uid.

A ,i0 million increase for TRIO would gotoward the imprwement of outreach and servicesfor low-income students, enabling them to enrollin and complete a college education, Bush said inhis budget pnoposal.

Federal TRIO programs are outreachprograms which target low-income, first-generation college and disabled students.

The budget also seel$ to increase funding by

universities, black graduate institutions andHispanic institutions. According to the VhiteHouse, the president plans to increase funding forthese programs 30 percent by 2005.

Mictnel Cat€, the national vice presilent ofthe College Democns of America, said on alllevels, Bush is underfunding education.

"Students should be asking why is hespending so much money on tar break (for thewealthy), when he could be spending moremoney on aid so midle- and loryerclas srudenscan go to college," tre uid.

Bush's budga also allocates $614 million mcrefor Reading First state grants, $375 million morefor sate grana for improving teader quality, and1320 million to develop and implement annualsate readhg and math prformance asessmentsfor students in grades three to eight,

'The irony is Buz will graduate from collegebefore she's 17 pan old and eligrble to ale herGED," her mother said.

Buz knws dre dsh of social rsolation _they've been drilled into her by teachers,counselors and collqge admisions officers.

'Therc are bound to be bumpy spots," shesaid. "But I'm not scared. I'm iust trappy."

"Buz has beerr pleading with us to let her goto college for more than a yur and a half,' saidKelly Buckmiller

The Buckmillers recognized Buz'sintelhgence eady and pushed the administration atChallenger Elemenury, a printe school wittr anaccelerated curdculum in Salt lake Ciry to let hershp first grade.

"lt's kind d eerie," uid Xblly Buckmiller "Shecan see something once and commit it tomexnory."

Walter GantSt#(rlurmlst

Medical mariiuana for Americans is a prpedrqam. No matter how much work is done to makeit legal the powers ttut be will nercr fully legalize it.Right now eight states have laws that make it legalto prescribe marijuana as medicine, only nvo ofthose, Colorado and Ne'rada made the lawsconsdtutional. Last week the Supreme Coununanimously ruled ttut fedeml law does not allowmedical necessity for mariiuana urrs. In this state,

it is now legal for ttnse with a doctor's consent to smoke marijuana, butthey can't buy it.

Colorado and Neyada made the laws constitutional. Ihis meansanother amendment would have to be brought fonh by the legislatureand then roted on by the people to revene the law. the otlrr sh satelarncould be dunged zuierorrepealed I legislature without avotebythe people. Alaska, &lifomia, Hawaii, Maine, Oregon, and \fashingtonue ttre other sates with madiuna laws on the booh. The western statesturc been more liberal in the morrement of mariiuana as a medicine.

These lasn in truth are all big strides for med!:l muijuana but thehct rcmairs that maiiuana is still a schedule one drug. A schedule onedrug is a drug that is belbad to hare rp mditd benefits. Ttre NatiorulOrganization for the Reform of }lariiuana Iaws suned a state by sutepetition to ry and get nuriiuana categorized as a scJrcdule two drugThis would mean that the drug would has a medical benefit and could beprcscribed Ia medical doctor

But dre controversy about rmriiuana bn t really about whether ornot ft's a rnedically beneficial drug. It's about nnney. lrlarijuana is thebiggat cash crop in America. Americans corxume ff% of the legal andilkgaldrugs in theworld. Iaarijuana legalization could put a lot ofpeopleout of business. And there's is more at sake tlun iust money generatedfrom reseational ur, Any anemps to lega.lize mar$uana would threatenbusinesses because of marijuana's by-product, hemp.

Hemp conrains little to no THC. TIIC is the chemical in marijuanatlut gets 1ou high. If hemp becomes legal, corporations all thrcughoutAmerica would feel the biggest hir Hemp can be rsed as animal feed ormade into materials dut produce all sorts of goods, such as shoes,dotha, and paper products. Using hemp would help the environment,but not big business. All the lumberyard owners wouldn t be happy tosee mariiuana gain steam because it kills their monopoly of the paperindustry. The conon industry wouldnt like it eithr, they make a lot ofmorry selling $eir product to the dotring trade. A lot of ercr$aythings rculd be effeaed due to the legdiztion of l,tarijuana

Medicirc companks will dso take huge hits, The money is not indre cure but in dre medicine. Dfierent people with diferent diseasc,such as cancer and AIDS, have found ttut mad,uana hdp them. Ihepharmaceutical companies, howeveq don t won t to hear tlut. ldariiuanais nnre cheaply produced ttran the many medications thry cunentlymake.'lb drem, it's not abo4 helphg peofle, but making profis.

Prisons and iails will also be effated if madjuana is legalized. Duringtlre Clinton administration orier 4 million people were arestod onmarijuana cturges. This means ttut they have more pople to put in allthesc prirate iails ttut are being built droughout the country, Crime isgood business br these irstitutions, ifyou make mariiuana legal then theprison slntems would lose joh due to fts'er people going to jail. Ifcorporations weren't building these prisons the gorrmment wouldn't betrying to fill them up. So the ramifications of any legali?adon of any drugwould harr a seriors effm to the revenues of Amefta's private penalcorporations.

Don t beliere for one minute dur the fight aginst medica.l marijuauis about the war on drugs. That's the acuse ttut they ur to conain themariiuana mo\€ment in Arrrerica. the hcts show that mariiuana is bigbrsiness. And, unfonunately, the truth this drug could help so many issecondary to tlre impact it could have on big American busines.

scene, Adding further interest to thestoryline is a play within the movie thatdirectly parallels what is going on in themovle.

The acting in Moulin Rouge is passable,but nothing great. Ewen McGregor andNicole Kidman are convincing as the film'stwo main lovers, but they don't break anynew ground with the roles. Richard Roxburghmakes an enjoyable villain, the kind ofcharacter it is fun to hate, andJim Broadbenthas his moments as the club owner. The mostentertaining performance of the moviecomes in the form of John Leguizamo's turnas Toulouse Lautrec. Vhatever Luhrmann didto bring Leguzamo down to Lautrec's smallstature is entirely convincing. Without seeingany of his other work, one could easilybelieve Luhrmann found a dwarf to play thep rt.

There is a lot of good stuff here, but ircouid be great if there weren't for theoccasional over-the-top scene. Every now andthen one will pop up where the actors ham itup a little too much, and they aren't helpedby the cartoon sound effects that accent theiractions. The absurdity of these scenes reallydoes ruin what would otherviseitE rveryenjoyable movie, making the wholeexperience of watching Moulin Rougeunsatisfying.

Shortly into lloalin Rouge, there is a lineabout a sleeping Argentinean falling throughthe ceiling and being followed closely by adwarf dressed as a nun. The line is deliveredin a deadpan manner worthy of DouglasAdams, and sets high hopes that the rest ofthe film will be as bizarre and witty as theopening scenes.

Sadly, this is not to be. Merc momentslater is the first of several overblown scenesthat put a damper on an otherwise whollyentertaining movie. Everything in thesescenes goes too far over the top, makingsuspension of disbelief difficult if notimpossible.

Of course, bizarre is par for the course inMoulin Rouge, which fills 1!th century Pariswith late 20th century music. Baz Luhrmann,best known for his updated Ro meo * Juliet,isn't a director known for hyper-realism. Herethe colors are overstated, the music anddancing are at least i0 years ahead of theirtime, and people occasionally step outside towalk on the clouds.

In fact, problematic scenes aside, MoulinRouge is actually a very well-made movie.Luhrmann lets his audience know the kind offilm they are in from the get.go, contrastingsepia toned film-stock with digital effects for

like luhrmann's other films, the popularmusic of the day plavs a big part in Moulin

She said some of those suggestions requiremore money, which has been a struggle the pastdecade, though more money may be availablewith voters' approval of an initiative rquiringincreased state spending on eduution.

Cqpluringthe pqst

So fu this summer's biggest movies setm to have anaged quality to them. Of the highat grossing films theweekend of LIay 19, the top three had at somewlut

historical senings I only say"somewtut" because the number-one money make4 Sl:re&, akesplace in a fictional world, but it is aworld that strongly resemblesEurope of the Renaissance.

And there are two moreperiod pieces that promise to do afair amount of busines in coming

weeks: karl Hafior znd Moulin Rouge, What makesthis harrage of movies set in yean past more interestingis the widely varying degrees of historical accuracy, Evenfocusing on three movies in which the era actually has animpact on the plot, one can get everything from anattempt to recreate actual events to comphte and totaldisregard for the time period,

This disregard comes in the form of,tfotilin Rouge.V/ith an opening tide card proclaiming the year to be1900, Moukn Rouge is a modem musical with songs byeveryone from the Beades to Beck. Although thecostumes, senings, and cluracters are anchored in thepast, lutrmann tries, rather successfully, to create asince of modern relevance by using music of the late20th century.

An unsuccessful attempt at the same technique canbe found inA lQllgbl3 ?h/e, which tries to set its actionin 14th century Europe, except for the occasionalintrusion by modern music or advertising. The plot ofthe movie is even lifted from 20th century sportsmovies.

The only one of the three to uke itrif comphtdseirus[1 s karl Hador, which strives to recreate theevents ofDec. 7, 1941. It manages to do so, too, with anymisuka being the son *rat will only be noticed byhistory majors or orpens on the went,

So why does a movie that is as accurate as posibleand one that seem to delight rn anactronism bothsucceed while one that tries to fit in between hil?

Vell, there are several reasons A llrtigbt's Tale fallsshort as a movie, so wavering historical accuncy isn t thesole cause, but it does bring up an interesting point. Bynot toally committing to one side or the other, themovie rems umure of itself krhaps if writerTDirectorBrian Helgeland had eliminated or embraced theanachronisms in his movie, it would have been bener,but it's too late for that now.

Committing to one side or the other or accuncyalso comes with challenges, but they ake less skill ttuntrying to waiver somewhere in the middle and still makean enteftaining film. If the filmmakers try to cr€ate anaccurate reprcsenution of ttre past, ttrcy have to bemeticulous in making sure everything fits dre period. lnthe opposite diratbn, ttrere is the chance that a movie'sinelrrence wrll go tm far, resulting in udder noruenr(u Matlin Rouge ucasionally doa).

So making a historical movie invohes a couplepithlls. Then agarn, if filmmakers didn t uke these andgreater risk, their movb wouldn't be worth watching.

L

{

. Producer Jerry Bruckheimer anddirector Michael Bay are not known forserious movies. Between them, they havemade such mindless action films as lleRock md Armageddor; hardly the kind ofmovies one would use to commemorate ahistoric event such as the attack on PearlHarbor.

Surprisingly, however, they comethrough, making a decent film for summermoviegoers and make a better than averagewar movie, It has its problems, but when allis said and done Pearl Harbor iscomparable to Sauing Priuate Rlan in i$ability to impress an audience with an epicwar story.

In fact, the only maior problem withthis movie is that the central story is not somuch about the military strike thatchanged the course of Vorld Var tl, but atrite love triangle between three of thepeople involved. For a while, especiallyafter a bar fight between the two men overthe woman on the night of Dec. 5, there isthe glimmer of hope that they will realize

how petty they are being in relation towhat happens the next morning, but it isnot to be.

Pearl Harbor has more that its share ofredeeming qualities though. The eventsleading up to the offensive are highlightedin a way that shows both Japan's reasonsfor attacking and why the United States wasso unprepared. There is even an attempt tomake the Admiral oftheJapanese squadronseem like a good guy, just not good enoughthat the audience isn't cheering for theAmericans when the fighting starts.

One of the movie's heroes even getsthe chance to shoot down some Nazis,giving the other villains of tfflVII moviessome screen time. This actually results in afew of the more impressive dog-fightingscenes in recent memory, and some of thefirst such scenes not to seem like carboncopies of lop Gun or Star Wars.

As for the events that insured Dec. 7,1941, its life of infamy, Bay manages toportray a realistic battle, conveying most ofthe right emotions at the right time. PearlHarbor uptures not only the destructioncaused by the Japanese air strike, but also

the surprise of the troops stationed inHawaii, the hurried attempts to save asmany lives as posible, and the immediateattempts at retaliation.

There are, however, a few thingsmissing from the movie's main sequence.For example, it is never fully explained whyDoris Miller (one of the film's handful ofreal historical figures) received the NavyCross, and there is little follow-up to thehbspital sequences, leaving them without asense of resolution.

Pearl Harbor also has an unfortunatelyweak ending. The final act has a tacked-onfeeling, chronicling the April 18 anack onTokyo seemingly just because theAmericans need to seem like they'rewinning before the credits roll.

Other than afew ilaws, Pearl Harbor isa very enjoyable film, which usuallymanages to get the right emotions across atthe right times. Boasting great visuals, adecent story, good performances in a fewof the supporting roles, and good enoughperformances by the leads, this one isthree hours well spent for a weekendmatmee.

lqwmqkers drinkfor qlcohol lqws

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Alegislative "experiment" on the effects ofalcohol helped sway at least some lawmakersto vote for tougher drunken driving laws.

About a dozen lawmakers, under thesupervision of the state Highway Patrol,guzled down their favorite brands of beerand liquor a couple of months ago in orderto test their sobriety.

Until then, some had opposed loweringthe state's legal blood-alcohol level for

drivers to 0.08 percent from the current 0.10percent for fear it would turn "socialdrinkers" into criminals.

After the experiment, some said theywere surprised by how much they had todrink to reach 0.08 percent.

"lt's a myth that it only takes a few beersto get there,' said Rep. John Griesheimer, R-!flashington, who publicly told colleaguesthat he had changed his views on a 0.08percent law.

The Legislature passed the 0.08 percenrbill, sending it to Gov. Bob Holden, who isexpected to make it law. The tougherdrunken driving thresho.ld would take effectSept. 29.

A person's blood alcohol contentdepends on his body weight, how muchalcohol he drinks, how quickly he drinks andwhether he eats during or just before hisdrinking.

Rep. Sam Gaskill, R-Vashburn, asupporter of the 0.08 percent threshold,organized and paid for the March drinkingexperiment.

During the study, the 300-poundGriesheimer drank several bourbon andCoke cocktails - equal to 14 shos wonh ofalcohol- and registered 0.087 percent bloodalcohol content.

"ln good conscience, I was impaired,'hesaid.

Sen. Mike Gibbons, R-Kirkwood, drankabout five beers in three hours while eatingpreuels and chips. He registered a 0.02percent blood alcohol content.

"l felt fine," said Gibbons, who weighs240 pounds, It was pretty clear to me thatyou had to consume a ferocious amount ofalcohol to get tci that (0.08 percent) level."

Gibbons, who had previously opposedsimilar bills, said he was swayed ro vote forthe 0.08 percent measure. But Gibbons saida new federal law cutting highway funds rostates that don t eventually adopt the 0.08percent standard provided extra impetus.

Some lawmakers remained opposed tothe new standard afrer participaring in rhedrinking study.

Rep. David Reynolds, for example, wasone of 10 House members who opposed0.08 percent legislation. During theexperiment, the 210 pound lawmakerregistered 0.04 percent after drinking fourbeers in an hour.

He said there was no need to lower thedrunken driving standard from 0.10 percentto 0.08 percent because most of the driverswho cause fatal crashes are severelyintoxicated.

"This is a feel-good thing," saidReynolds, D-Florissant.

Metro didn't have a great season inconference play, but one of the best seria thatthey did play was against last year's conferencechampions, Fon Hap Sate,

In the conference tournament semifinals lastyeaf, the Tigers pounded the Rmdrunners 19-2.It was so bad, that in one inning, Fon llays hitback-to-back-toback homeruns of Metropitching,
