a IIIIIIIBI‘ Bosnia

By Aaron 0. Hall
Staff” ’I'III’I'

Ajlina Karamehic has lived in three
different countries, lost loved ones and,
for the past three months, this commu—
nication freshman has been the sole
metnber of her family living in the
United States.

Karamehic‘s unsettling experiences
are the consequences of life as a .\Ius‘
but from Bosnia.

in an open letter.

Karamehic spent the first two-thirds
of her life in the former Yugoslavia,
where Muslims, Croatians and Ser—
bians lived in peaceful co—existence.

I ooking back on the tranquillity
that peryaded her country, Karameliic
said: “I would have been proud too if
\ugoslayia had lasted 14mg enough for
me to understand how' rare that quality
was."

Life in Yugoslavia ended when
Karamebic was 12.

cated to Dubai. L’nited Arab Emirates.
because of his job.

In 1992 Karamehic"s family made
summer plans to visit relatives back in
Yugoslavia, but peace turned to war
just months before they were to return,
and their trip was postponed indefi—
nitely.

In 1991 three of Yugoslavia's
republics broke away to declare inde—
pendence.

Bosnia declared its own indepen—
dence in early 1992, but republics Ser—

bia and Montengro remained a part of

Yugoslavia

The Serbs, making up 31 percent of
Bosnia .s -l / million population reject—
ed Bosnia s independence.

In an effort to take land away from
the (Iroatians, the Serbs, using (lold
\Var supplies and with the aid of Serb
proper. took arms in April 1992, forc—

ing Muslims and other groups out of

their homes. As a result, the Serbs now
occupy 70 percent of Bosnia.

Two hundred fifty thousand Bosni-
ans have died and it has been five years
since Karamehic ha seen her relatives

As an indirect result of the war,
Karamehic lost her grandmothers —
only one to natural causes.

Limited amounts of water and elec—
tricity, and sometimes having to spend
days in a basement shelter to avoid
bomb attacks, was too stressful for her
other grandmother.

But neither loss prepared Karame—
hic for the death of her 17-year—old
cousin “an.

from Iolleyball practice was hit in the

grenade shell landed near her.

Maja’s sports bag remained
untouched.

A stranger witnessing the scene,
drove .\Iaja to a hospital to try to save
her. He told Karamehic's family that
death was not immediate.

“She had tried to pull herself up, but
couldn't," recalls Karamehic of the
stranger's account, "and when she was
in his back seat, he had turned around
and looked into the bluest eyes.”

Maia died at the hospital.

“She was one in a million, and ifshe
hadn‘t been killed. maybe one day I
would have been able to forget the
war.‘~ she said, “but this way I will

Last week President (Ilinton
addressed plans to send American
troops into Bosnia to secure a peace
agreement.

“I'm glad he recognized the prob-
lem." said Karamehic, who is opti—
mistic that Bosnia will one day become
a democratic society. “It's good that
they want to help."

But a lot of Americans expressed
anger over the plan.

“I understand all the negative reac-
tion, but you have to understand
Americans got involved from the

beginning, " Karamehic said. “You just
can’tfget inIolyed and leave in the mid—
dle o everything.

“\Vithout America, we can’t do it,"
Karamehic said.

Despite the war’s rape of her home—

return to Bosnia.

“I still can't believe a war has taken
place there," she said. “I still think that
when I go back, everything will be
fine."

UK students often are surprised
and regretful when hearing she is from
Bosnia.

It is true that love can run full circle.
That is how many L'K employees feel.

The Circle of Love provides presents
for needy children in Fayette County.

The Main Campus Circle was started a
few years ago by UK employees after the
UK Chandler Medical Center started its
own Circle of Love.

The Medical Center program takes
care of children from surrounding coun-
ties and the main campus program deals
with children from Fayette County.

Many L'niversity departments and
offices go in together to provide a nice
Christmas for many children. One
department this year is sponsoring 50

children.

The Circle of Love has grown over the
years. “'hen it began, there were only
400 to 500 names, now there are over
600. But this year, UK employees will be
collecting gifts for 655 children.

“Sometimes school counselors call in
and ask if we can add names and that is
how we end up with more than we started
with," said Barbara Coughlin, a plant
pathology employee.

The gifts, which are being collected in
206 Student Center, started arriving early
.\londay morning. They will continue to
arrive until noon on Tuesday.

“Some people will bring three or four
or even one gift," said “'innie
Humphrey, a UK employee.

“I don’t have a set criteria for
time spent to research and time
spent teaching," Barwise said.

He recently received an hon—
orary degree from Pennsylvania
State University.

“This award is a reflection of
my research to logic,” Barwise
said.

The Sloan Award was a fellow—
ship granted to Barwise that gives
him two years to dedicate to
research without teaching.

“I hope to get people to think
about information and how it
works," he said.

“People tend to take informa~
tion in without really thinking
about what is really communicat-
ed."

The topic ofthe lecture will be
focused on a mathematical
account of what information is,
and how information is quantified,
Barwise said.

Focusing on this topic, Barwise
will bring together three separate
disciplines at UK; computer sci-
ence, philosophy and mathemat—

lfthe junior varsity basketball team's opener .igainst Lees
(Iollege Thursday is any indication, this should be an exciting
year for head coach [)elray Brooks and company.

Local fans will get their first chance to see the j\'s in
action tonight against Hargrave at 8 in Memorial (Ioliseum.

In the (Iats' 133—13" shootout win over Lees, (Iameron
Mills scored 38 points, and Jason Lathrem. another varsitv
walk—on pitched in 18. '

In addition to the two walk—ons, varsity players placed on
the team by varsity coach Rick l’itino and other athletes who
tried out this fall make tip the L’KJV team.

Some players such as Mills and \Vildcat
freshmen ()liver Simmons and Nazr
Mohammed will see time with both the .IV
and varsity squads this season.

Despite the open tryouts and inclusion of
players not on the varsity squad, the purpose
of the _l\' team is to give Mills, Lathrem,
Simmons and Mohammed a chance to get off
the bench and get better.

“\Vhat we want to accomplish is to try to
get them game experience early in their
careers," Brooks said. “It gives them the
opportunity to improve in every facet of the
game, including individual instruction."

Being the main players on the _l\' squad
should enhance their abilities to contribute
on the varsity level.

“They'll get to work on their fundamen—
Lalhrem tals in a game situation, which they don't
always get to do with the varsity," Brooks said. “InjV prac-
tices, they’ll be the focal point. They'll be the focus of all the
improvement and work."

Brooks plans to use the same system and style the varsity
\\'ildcats use, but not on the same advanced level

Kinard said the main strength ofthe team is that they‘re
“in shape. The coaches make tis run a lot. Plus we have a lot
of numbers. \Ve have 16 players, and H saw action against
Lees. ()ur depth should be a factor."

Brooks said that how successful the team is in tonight’s
game depends on the contributions of Mills, Lathrem, Sim»
mons and Mohammed. He expects to rely on those four “very
heavily" throughout the season.

“I've already told Cameron he's not allowed to miss,"
Brooks said.

things. So as far as those
things are concerned, notlr

came out and decided this season that every
game we were going to come out and play
our best.

“It didn‘t matter if it was conference. in—

out and play with the best of our abilities."
