Being
observant

There were many things
that I happened to
hear, was told, or
realized in the past
couple of days or so.
Here are just a few.

Football has a Major
problem, but I hear
they won't have a
Major problem next
year. Will we still be
able to run home to
our Mumme or will
loyalties finally be
broken if they need to
be?

isn't it odd that the same
people who can't
punch out a whole
with an arrow pointing
to it in Florida are the
same people who can
find B~iZ on l0 bingo
cards?

Are votes that are being
hand-counted more
reliable than votes
counted by a
sophisticated machine
designed just for that
purpose? I mean, I
have never seen a
copier get told that it
wasn’t doing a good
enough job so we
were going to
freehand the copies
with a pencil and a
ruler.

A construction worker
died on this campus
trying to help build a
new structure for our
school.

Our school has a really
weird slogan,
"America's Next Great
University." If you are
the person or know
the person that came
up with this, please e-
mail me. I would really
like to know what
other choices there
were to pick from.
Something like "We
still are nationally
ranked in some school
programs" maybe?

UK basketball - I know it
is early and the
competition was not
California Community
Technical State
University or
anything, but 0-2?
Come on fellas. lf
football is rebuilding,
we would really like to
see you winning. By
the way, I thought we
were running and
gunning and pressing
this year. What
happened? (Hint when
on offense: You can
move around and set
off the ball picks and
stuff. This is legal and
has been found to be
successful.)

Some lame pick up lines
overheard:

Do you sleep on your
stomach? Can I?

If being fine were illegal,
you would be in jail
for life.

If you were a booger, l'd
pick you first.

You must be a VISA card,
cause you are
everywhere I want to
be.

Colin Powell brings promise

of the future to students

A better America: General speaks to EKU
students about America's Promise organization

By Ben Adkins
STAFF WRITER——

Saving the children is Gen. Col-
in Powell's goal for a better America.

This was the message delivered
at Friday morning's America's
Promise summit. held at Eastern
Kentucky University. Speakers at
the event included Gen. (‘olin Pow-
ell. Gov. Paul Patton. Lt. Gov.
Stephen Henry and his wife. former
Miss America. Heather French
Henry. Middle and high school stu-
dents from the region also attended
the event.

America's Promise is a pub-
licly and privately funded. not-for-
profit organization dedicated to
bettering the lives of at-risk and
low income youth in both rural
and urban areas. The organization
was founded in April 1997 in
Philadelphia at the Presidents'
Summit for America‘s Future.
which was attended by Presidents
Clinton. Bush. Carter and Ford.
anti was chaired by Gen. Powell. It
was here that Powell was
also asked to chair the
national effort by help-
ing to recruit partners
for the organization.

The tnain focus of the
summit was the five goals
that are set forth by the or»
ganization. Powell dis-
cussed these in detail,

Promoting ongoing rela-
tionships with caring adults
is one such goal and a big
priority. according to Pow-
ell. He believes that by hav»

ing positive role models. children
will have a reason to succeed. He
also believes that these adults are
largely responsible for the youth‘s
well-being

"If the children fail. it's the
adults who have actually failed." he
said.

Powell discussed his own child
hood growing up in the South
Bronx as the son of.Iamaican immi»
grants. He attributes his own suc
cess and achievements not only to
his parents. but other adults in his
neighborhood that helped to steer
him in the right direction.

“I had an 'aunt' to look out for
me in every other tenant building
in the South Bronx." he said.

Powell also placed emphasis on
the importance of keeping chil-
dren occupied during after-
school hours. and noted that
most juvenile crime
takes place during ,
these hours. which $ ..
has contributed to , -
the large numbers " '

occupying America‘s
facilities.

“There are 2 million .»\mericans
in jail." he said. “The reason we
have to keep building these jails is
because w e're not building up our
kids."

Powell encourages both indi-
viduals and organizations to get in»
volved. and thinks the America's
Promise partnership is the key to
paying a path to a better future for
the youth.

"We're not an organization.
we're a crusade.” he said. “There is
no more noble goal

than to reach
into the lives
of these chil-
dren and
point them
in the right
direction."

Plus account services offered

Use your card: SGA and local restaurants working
together provide more options for students

By Kristi Martin

STAFF WRITER

UK students might be able to
purchase general delivery food and
pizza frotn local businesses through
their plus accounts.

The Student Government Asso-
ciation has been working for about
a year to reestablish the use of the
plus account to purchase delivery
food such as pizza. said .Iimmy
Glenn. SGA president.

Glenn said the SGA is hoping
that many businesses participate in
the program. .Iimmy John's and
Papa John's are already involved.
Jimmy John’s. which delivers sand
wiches and other foods. has already
purchased the equipment.

“The program is not finalized
yet. but we are very optimistic that
it will be a reality soon." Glenn said.

Glenn said right now the pro-
gram is being looked over by the UK

Purchasing Department to work out
any problems that may surface after
the program is up anti running.

He said they are dealing with
eliminating any potential lawsuits
and legal problems. The Purchasing
Department has also invited a legal
adviser to go over the program and
help deal with any legal matters.

The Purchasing Department is
also getting all the equiptnent and
businesses set up right so there will
not be any glitches in the program.

Glenn said he is not sure when
the program will be be completed.
but he is looking for it to be soon

In the 1998 fall semester. stu‘
dents could use their plus accounts
to purchase delivery pizza from
Papa John's Pizza. During this time
other pizza delivery establishments
found out and filed an injunction
lawsuit against UK. The other busi-
nesses said UK was favoring Papa
.Iohn's and the other businesses

were. losing profits from the deal.

Judson Ridgway. the owner of
Domino's at Euclid. said he filed
suit against UK in 1998.

“I just thought it was dumb to
not invite all businesses in the com-
munity to service students." Ridg-
way said.

Ridgway's suit might have
caused the service to stop. but now
all local businesses have been invit-
ed to participate.

"It'll be set up so it‘s easy for
anyone to do it." Ridgway said.
“The cost doesn‘t look high."

Glenn said students liked having
the ability to use their plus accounts
to buy general delivery food and
hopes the program is implemented
soon for all local establishments that
are willing to purchase the equip
ment and set up the project.

Marc Searcy. a history fresh-
man. agrees.

“I think it is a good idea be-
cause sometimes I know that I do
not have cash and it is hard to get to
a MAC machine whenever you
want to eat something besides what
is offered on campus." Searcy said.

Brent Walker, a business management junior and Jimmy John's employee,
said offering the plus account will be a hassle for businesses. but he sold
it will be "good for students to get to eat good meals."

been on UK's campus for at least
1.3 years according to Aimee ilas~
tori. adviser to the Si)(‘.

“The idea (for Si)(‘) was to
raise funds from students before
they gn‘aduated so hopefully they
will continue to give to the li'ni-
versity after graduation." Has
tori said.

She said last year Si)(‘
raised $2.000 front the senior
class and would like to see that
amount increase this year.

Si)(‘ targets mainly seniors
by a program calieri the Senior
Challenge. During this program.
members set up booths and give
freebies to seniors twice a
month. Recently. Si)(‘ gave se

A different item is given
away each month. When a se-
itior takes an item. SI)(‘ has the
senior sign their name and ad
dress to a sheet. Then the Slit‘
has one monthly drawing where
students can win a prize. which
also changes each month. The
monthly prize has been every-
thing from a television to a din-
ner for two at a local restaurant

ifthis is an organization to
citsed on raising money why
are they giving away so many
freebies?

itaston hopes the seniors
that received these freebies will
remetnber they came front Silt‘
so when they ltave their Phone
aThon (each semester) to raise
money. these seniors will be
willing to donate. ilaston said
during the Phone a-Thon. they
call everv setiiot‘ anti ask them
to make a donation in the name
of their class. They ask for an
R

 

amount that ties in with a sttt
dents graduation year

Haston said the money
raised is itsed to fund 'I protect
that puts historical markers iii
front of buildings at [K and also
to funri three to five Silt‘ schol-
arships. which are awarded
every spring.

Baston said the historical
marker project was started so
students. faculty. staff and visi»
tors can gain a better apprecia~
tion for the buildings on l'K's
campus.

“it‘s a great opportunity."
said Josh Brown. an agriculture

a diverse group of students. and
it's great to be part of art organi
zation that has a lot of success "
