A hellish
week

It has often been said
that. “When it rains,
it pours." but this
week it seems that
when it rains it rains
and rains and rains.
it never really poured
but it hasn't stopped
raining, both literally
and metaphorically.
The weather has
been less than
desirable and it also
seems as if there's a
never-ending string
of things to do and
worry about. Here's
what I mean.

i spent an entire
weekend and the
beginning of this
week studying for
one big exam, only to
take the exam and
then have to start
studying for a second
big exam on Friday.
It's not really that
unusual but when you
throw a paper into
the middle of the
studying. things get a
little hectic. it'd be
nice if things didn't
all fall on the same
week.

it seems that studying
for a class isn’t
enough for some
professors. They
often feel inclined to
teach things that are
going to be on the
exam right up to the
day before the exam.

My favorite things are
the practice exams
that come with
solution guides.
These are an
immense help. but
the only problem is
that half of the
problems are worked
out wrong on the
guide.

Studying occupies a lot
of time that's usually
dedicated to other
things. One of these
things being cleaning
the room. The more I
study the dirtier the
room gets and then i
end up losing things
that I need to study.

Stress can do strange
things to you. This
usually results in
mornings when I
wake up on the
wrong side of the
bed. Yesterday I
woke up on the
wrong side of the
bed. I fell asleep
reading and awoke
with my head hanging
off the side of the
bed down by where
my feet should have
been. Nothing like a
stiff neck to keep
you focused on an
important lecture.

I hope I'm not the only
one having a rough
week. if you know
what I’m talking
about. drop me a
line.

Have a GREAT lie. semi~
decent) DAY!

Forum: Four professors from regional universities discuss
historical perspectives surrounding terrorist attacks

By Steve lvey

STAFF WRITER

Many Americans have come to a con-
sensus, supporting retaliation against
those responsible for the Sept. 11 terrorist
attacks.

Four professors from regional univer-
sities attempted to challenge this consen-
sus at a forum Tuesday night.

The consensus is “based on igno-
rance. misinformation, and double
speak," said Paul Lewis. a UK graduate
student.

The idea of “they attacked us. so we
attack them" is the kind of “stupidity that
has led to events such as the attacks of six
international students here at UK." Lewis
said.

“While we can‘t understand attacks
such as those on the World Trade Center
and the Pentagon. we can try to under-
stand the social forces behind them and
try to formulate a long-term response."
said Nayef Samhat. a Centre College gov-
ernment and international studies profes-
sor.

Michael Lewis. an Eastern Kentucky
University history professor. said. “Amer-
icans are generally liked in the world. The
United States sometimes pursues its own
interests and does what it pleases. without

Anthrax: Campus postal workers examining thousands
of pieces of mail each day for suspicious packages, envelopes

by Andrea Uhde

ASSIs'rTWEAws‘ifiiTii?

After two weeks of anthrax
scares in Kentucky. the UK post
office is taking its time to en-
sure that students and faculty
do not receive any packages or
letters containing the deadly
bacteria.

Each of the thousands of
pieces of mail received by the
post office each day is being ex-
amined for any suspicious
signs of anthrax before being
shipped to the campus build-
ings. said Venda Ridgeway. the
manager of UK Postal Services
and Duplicating Services.

Suspicious signs include an
envelope without a return ad-
dress. stam ped dates that have
an unusual time span from the
time they were sent out to when

they were received and any
form of powder

The 24 staff members have
met several times within the
past two weeks. Ridgeway said.
Workers have been briefed at
each meeting of the US. Post
Office's guidelines for working
with suspicious mail. “We are
making sure our staff has been
educated Wllh it." Ridgeway
said.

She said work is going on
as usual. but the increased
awareness of suspicious pack
ages is causing minor delays in
delivering mail around campus

"We are very aware of what
is going on and we are thinking
of the safety of employees. staff
and all of our customers."
Ridgeway said.

The staff has latex gloves
and plastic bags on hand. If

anything suspicious is found.
they will bag the mail and call
the UK Police Department.

Ridgeway said four en-
velopes without return address-
es were found this moming and
went up for further investiga-
tion among staff. All were
found safe.

Ridgeway said if a package
with anthrax is not detected.
the departments receiving the
mail are trained to catch it. She
said the [7K post office is not re-
sponsible if something does slip
through

"i hope the people in the
mail room (at the departments)
would be just as conscious as
we are." she said.

Anthrax has caused three
deaths within the US. this
month. Local scares include
