Ky Senate
cuts state
student aid

program

Cuts funding for 15 scholarships
that aid minority, needy law students

By Dariush Shafa
nit KENTUCKY mm

A move by the Kentucky Senate lead-
ership to remove funding fer Kentucky
law school scholarships is political retali-
ation against the judiciary for a 2005 Ken-
tucky Supreme Court ruling over a con-
testded Senate seat, a Lexington senator
sai .

The Kentucky Legal Education Op
portunities Program scholarships are in-
tended for a special purpose. said Drusil-
la Bakert. associate dean of admissions
in the UK College of Law.

“It helps a number of minority stu-
dents, low-income students and students
who come to law school with an educa-
tional disadvantage, typically being the
first in their families to go to college.”
Bakert said.

The KLEO Program applies to the
three law schools in Kentucky. UK’s Col-
lege of Law, the University of Louisville
Louis D. Brandeis School of Law and the
Northern Kentucky University Salmon P.
Chase College of Law.

The three law schools divide up the
funding so that 45 students in all. 15 at
each school, receive $5.000 for the year,
Bakert said. The three colleges give the
scholarships to five students from each
year of the threeyear law program.

Sen. Ernesto Scorsone. D-Lexington.
said the Republican leadership is acting
out of revenge after the Kentucky
Supreme Court overruled the Senate’s
placing Republican Senator Dana
Stephenson. of Louisville, in office. The
court ruled her ineligible for the position
after it came out that Stephenson had not
been a resident of Kentucky for the six
years required by Kentucky law.

“There’s a lot of animosity between
the Republican leadership in the Senate
and the court system because of the
(Kentucky) Supreme Court ruling that
went against them over the contested
Senate seat." Scorsone said.

The legal battle to seat Stephenson,
which was led by David Williams. R-
Burkesville and Senate President, was
curtailed by the Franklin Circuit Court
and later the Kentucky Supreme Court.
Kentucky Supreme Court Chief Justice
Joseph Lambert was one of the main pro
ponents of the KLEO Program.

Lambert declined to comment for the
time being and Williams did not return
calls to his office during business hours
or a call to his home during the evening.

The $250,000 per year in funding also
supports a week-long Summer Institute
for KLEO students, where incoming
KLEO students are taught by law profes-
sors and mentored by other KLEO stu-
dents.

“It creates mentor contacts. It also
hooks them up with KLEO students at
the law schools they‘ll be attending." Bak-

Celebrating 35 years of independence

 

Gatewood Galbraith speaks to a crowd in front of the White Hall Classroom Building yesterday afternoon about his efforts to
legalize the use or marijuana. He spoke as part of a membership rally held by the UK chapter of the National Organization for

the Reform of Marijuana Laws.

ally calls for reform
of marijuana laws

By Blair Thomas
THE KENTUCKY mm

Dozens of students gathered
beside the White Hall Class-
room Building yesterday to get
fired up about reforming mari-
juana laws.

The students came for a
membership rally held by the
UK chapter of the National Or-
ganization for the Reform of
Marijuana Laws (NORML).

Lexington lawyer and politi-
cian, Gatewood Galbraith.
spoke to students about the le-
galization of marijuana and
their rights as citizens to under-
stand and be an active part of
government.

“I like coming out here and
getting the students riled up."
Galbraith said. “I represent a
lot of them in court later on so I
like to take opportunities like
this to talk to students and
teach them about marijuana
and about their rights."

Galbraith spoke about the
history of marijuana laws in
the country and of the plant’s
various uses and then he
stressed his opinions on the im-
portance of experiencing the
“benefits of marijuana."

“Today they (the university)
will threaten to pull your finan-
cial aid money if you are found
in possession of marijuana. But
getting an education should be a
top priority. The president of
Columbia University once said
he didn’t think anyone should
be able to get a college educa-
tion until they smoked marijua-
na at least once." Galbraith
said. “I disagree; I think it
should be at least twice,"

Galbraith ran for governor

ber of the Reform Party. He ran

By Sean Rose
THE irznrucxv KERNEL

Lexington politics will be
brought to UK’s campus Mon-
day with a mayoral candidates
forum held by Student Govern-
ment.

The forum will ask ques-
tions to the candidates provided
by UK students. staff. faculty
and administration. SG Presi-
dent Becky Ellingsworth said
she thought students would be
interested and
hoped they
would attend m
the forum.

“I think any I Mayoral Forum

Ellingsworth ' 7p..m, ”may
said. “What the

next mayor does is going to af-
fect our lives and the culture we
live in as UK students."

The forum will be held in
Center Theater in the Student
Center at 7 pm. and will have
current Mayor Teresa lsaac and
two of her challengers. Bill
Farmer Jr. and Jim Newberry.
A fourth candidate. (‘harles
Martin Jr. will not be present.
The Women’s League of Voters
will act as moderators. choosing
questions to ask candidates.
Students. faculty and staff are
encouraged to bring questions
to the forum.

Forum coordinator Ryan
Hamilton sa1d after sending out
a campus wide e-mail he had re-
ceived between 30 or 50 ques-
tions from the faculty. staff and
administration about issues
such as smoking ordinances
and road quality.

“The response has been real-
ly good." Hamilton said. "I‘ve
been thrilled."

In contrast Hamilton said he
had only received a couple ques-
tions from students on the
smoking ordinance and the par-
ty plan.

“Students haven‘t really
been participating and wanting
to get involved." Hamilton said,
“I‘ve been kind of disappointed

.. Hopefully they‘ll attend the
forum and ask questions.”

Hamilton said he wasn‘t
sure why so few students had
shown interest but agreed with
Ellingsworth that it was impor
tant for students to attend the
forum,

SG senators call Memorial Hall mural offensive

-mmvwmam « ,

Members of Jeff Gross' English 104 class inspect the mural in Memorial Hall for how it portrays historic
Kentucky life. The Student Government Senate passed a resolution condemning the mural in its last meeting.

By Chris Collins
THE KENTUCKY KE—RNEL

A large historical painting
might be removed from one of
the most recognized buildings
on campus if a Student Gov-
ernment resolution gets ap-
proval from the University of
Kentucky Board of Trustees.

The large fresco inside
Memorial Hall depicting the
history of Lexington and the
surrounding area has caught
the eye of Student Govern-
ment senators who say that
the fresco casts Native Ameri-
cans and blacks in a stereo-
typical way.

"Student Government Sen-
ator Sam Gaines brought
some pictures to the Senate
Government.“ said 80 Sen.
W111 Fuller “The one i saw ba-
sically implies that the Native
American in the picture is
about ready to attack a pio
neer lady working in the field.

“The mural depicts Native

Americans and African-
Americans in a really bad
light."

Last week. the SG Senate
passed a resolution calling for
the immediate removal of the
mural.

SG Sen. Gaines who
brought the resolution to the
senate. which passed it unani-
mously. said the mural could
be offensive to some students.

“What we are saying is
that this is a serious matter to
some students." Gaines said.

Gaines also did not rule
out the possibility of handling
the matter through a petition.

“We could have a petition
set up similar to Green
Thumb. something to let the
Administration know how
some students feel." Gaines
said. referring to the petition

For now. "fast" might not

Seacrest's April 3 radio
show. For now. the relation-

THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: Five things that will make
viewers throw up in their mouths this year

1. Barry Bonds passing Babe Ruth on the all—time
home run list. Bonds is such a malcontent and spoiled
baby about the press being in his face all the time that
he’s the exact opposite of Ruth. maybe the most
beloved sports figure of all time. He's so wildly unlik-

able that his home run record.
should he achieve it. will be hollow.
Read Chuck Klosterman’s column
on ESPNcom's page 2 about it. It'll
change your life. Well. not really but
it’s insightful. well written. and
awesome.

2. Kerry Wood and/or Mark Pri-
or retiring. Both of these Cub pitch-
ers have more potential than Kurt
Cobain did; they finished 32-17 with
a sub-3.00 ERA combined in 2004. In
2003. they led the Cubs to the NLCS.
but they‘ve spent more time on the
operating table than the pitching
rubber since then. which doesn’t bode well for the
North Side fans or the two themselves. Without domi-
nant starting pitching, this year‘s Cub installment
will falter to a(nother) fourth-place finish.

thing to do with sports, but it needed to be said. I
know I'm not alone here. If we’re going to be simple-
minded about our music. at least make it good. Bring
back Hootie and the Blowfish. for God’s sake.

4. The first round of the NBA playoffs (besides the
Pistons and Heat). The NBA needs to have a Major
League Baseball-esque playoff system: only the top
four teams in each conference get in. This season. the
teams from the seven~seed on down in the Eastern
Conference will have an under-.500 record. You
shouldn’t be allowed to make the postseason if you
win less than half your games. That should be a rule
in every sport. It‘s all about money. especially in the
NBA, but man. give us a break. There's no way the
76ers deserve a playoff bid.

Phi Delt leads in third year

By Jonathan Smith
in: KENTUCKY «cam

Two years ago, Steve
Cavezza had a difficult time
fielding enough players to
compete. Now. his toughest
job is turning his brothers
away.

“All of the guys in my fra-
ternity are my brothers."
said Cavezza. intramural
chairman of the Phi Delta
Theta fraternity. “You want
to give everyone a fair shot.
It‘s very hard to those se-
niors that might not get a
chance."

The journey started in
March 2003 when the frater-
nity accumulated enough ac
tive members to become an
official charter at UK. Now.
after only two full seasons of
intramural competition. the
fraternity is in position to
win the Intramural Cup.

With only three events to
go. Phi Delt holds a slim
eightpoint lead over Kappa
Sigma.

“1 think it just goes to
show UK and the Greek com-
munity." chapter President
Daniel Turner said. "how far
we have come."

And how far they will go
to win. Cavezza said they
practice three-to~five days a
week. They also hold tryouts
to find the best players in

are still out there playing be-
cause we love it,“ said
Knight.

“Over the past three
years I have invested more
than $2.000 of my own money
to help keep us going as a
team." said team president
and captain Scott Howe.

in a typical year. the team

each sport. That is two areas
that separate them from
many of the other fraterni-
ties on campus.

Not only do they have
strict athletic requirements,
but admission into the frater-
nity is only for the top men
that are interested.

“We might get around 100
guys who want bids." Cavez-
za said. “And we might only
give out eight."

Their Augusta National-
like selectivity has obviously
been beneficial. They have
finished lower than fifth in
only one of the team events.

“What people don't un-
derstand is that all of the
events are valuable," Cavezza
said. “Inner-tube water polo.
Frisbee, they‘re all impor-
tant. You have to put the
same effort into each sport."

But even the smaller
sport victories couldn‘t
match their first huge win.
This year they took home the
biggest Greek sport flag
football , with a rousing 32-6
win over Kappa Sigma in the
finals.

The win was one for the
entire fraternity. They are a
close-knit group ~ as close to
a family as you can get with-
out bloodlines. When they
call themselves brothers.
they mean it.

“Our brotherhood is the

best on campus," Cavezza
said. “Obviously I’m biased.
We’re very tight. They care
about me. and I care about
them."

Their intense interest for
each other makes them a one
of a kind group.

They didn't just jump
into a tradition-laden pro-
gram. It was a group of
friends that started it from
scratch. They built it from
the ground up. They virtual-
ly are an expansion team.
competing on an uneven
playing field with larger and
older fraternities.

But those other fraterni-
ties may have to take a back
seat to the new kid on the
block this year.

“It's something that we
definitely haven‘t done yet.“
Turner said. “But it can be
done."

And with only three
events left. it certainly is
within reach. For the charter
members that scrambled to
get the minimum 35 mem-
bers. and have seen it grow to
more than 80. an Intramural
Cup championship would be
sweet validation.

“it would mean a lot to
them." Turner said. “It
would be their Super Bowl."
