Students soon may be able to
summon police from anywhere
on campus with portable. pocket-
sized transmitters.

The UK Police Department
and Detection Systems Inc. yes-
terday displayed a new personal
security system that alerts police
to emergency situations and
helps ofﬁcers pinpoint the exact
location of trouble.

UK has not yet conunitted to
installing the system, but ofﬁ-
cials are expressing a genuine in-
terest in it, said Stephanie Bastin,
crime prevention coordinator for
the police department.

“This will give UK another al-
ternative from a safety stand-
point, if this system is imple-
mented," she said.

The Security Escort Personal
Safety System operates with a
small, hand-held transmitter that
doubles as a key chain. At the
push of a button, the transmitter
sends a distress call to receiver
boxes located on buildings or in
parking lots.

That signal then is relayed to
the police department, where dis-
patchers can determine where it
originated from and whose trans-
mitter was used to send the call.

Kirby Hughes, spokesman for
the security ﬁrm, said the system
could be designed to “cover any
area of the campus that the Uni-
versity wants covered."

In addition to the signal that is

UK considers
safety device

sent to the police dispatcher, oth-
er audible and visual sirens also
are triggered. These devices gen-
erally are installed on the exteri-
or of nearby buildings and in
parking lots.

One of the most unique fea-
tures of the system, police ofﬁ-
cials say, is that it will cost UK
nothing but administrative ex-
penses.

“We're excited because the
more users there are, the more
affordable it will be,“ Bastin
said.

Students, faculty and staff
would lease the transmitters
from Detection Systems on a se-
mesterly or yearly basis. The
rates charged would be ﬁxed ac-
cording to the number of people
registered.

Hughes estimated the maxi-
mum charge for students at $99
per semester, but he said this
price could be reduced signiﬁ-
cantly with the registration of
many students.

Nazareth College in Roches-
ter, N.Y., already uses this sys-
tem and interest is very high,
Hughes said. About 40 percent
of the school's students, faculty
and staff use the system, he said,
and females constitute the major-
ity of users.

Mike Carroll, district sales
manager for Detection Systems
Inc., said the system offers other
uses besides personal security,
such as reporting accidents.

Resolution says candidates
for chancellor lack diversity rc S ( , l u t i ( , n

By Perry Brothers
Staff Writer

The three ﬁnalists in UK's na-
tionwide search for a new Albert B.
Chandler Medical Center chancel-
lor each possess diverse qualiﬁca-
tions and backgrounds, but they all
have two things in common: race
artd gender.

This lack of diversity among the
finalists prompted the University
Senate Council to draft, unanimous-
ly pass artd hand-deliver to UK
President Charles Wethington this
week a resolution stating the Sen-
ate's “deep concern and disappoint-
ment" with the ﬁnalists.

The resolution states that the se-
lection of white men as the only ﬁ-
nalist in the search “sends a mes-
sage (that) there is no room at
the top“ for women and minority
administrators.

Gretchen LaGodna. who is a
nursing professor and member of
the Senate Council, said the com-
plaint has nothing to do with the ﬁ-
nalists‘ abilities to lead the medical
center.

“Our comments have nothing to
do with these three ﬁnalists. except
the absence of the diversity in the

selection," she said. “Clearly, I
think that the Senate Council has
not been satisﬁed with the outcome
of the search."

Daniel Fulks, who is chairman of
the Senate Council, agreed that fa-
culty are concerned about the ﬁnal-
ists’ lack of diversity, but he dis-
counted the level of dissatisfaction.

Fulks, however, also is a member
of the chancellor search committee.

“As a member of the search com-
mittee." Fulks said, “I am satisﬁed
with the effort made by the commit-
tee."

He described the resolution as
“merely an expression of concern
that we don't have women artd mi-
norities in the administration."

Wethington, who did not read the
text of the resolution until yesterday
aftemoon but met with members of
the Senate Council yesterday mom-
ing to discuss the matter, said he is
“pleased with the three candidates."

The president also defended the
search, saying: “I think it is impor-
tant to remind ourselves of the difﬁ-
culty of the process."

On Sept. 2, a lZ-member Search
Advisory Committee began scan-
ning the country for candidates to
replace Peter Bosomworth, UK's
current medical center chancellor.

administration levels.

The University Senate Council wishes to express deep
concern and disappointment about the lack of diversity
among the three ﬁnalists selected for the position of
Chancellor of the Medical Center. This is particularly
discouraging in light of the recent departure of Dr. Lee
Magid from the position of Vice President for Research and
Graduate Studies.

The University Senate and the Senate Council have
consistantly reaffirmed the importance of increasing
diversity at the highest levels of leadership in the university
since the 1990 issuance of the reports on the status of women
and minorities. The makeup of the ﬁnalist group sends a
message to members of the university community and the
larger public: There is no room at the top. Furthermore. this
action may discourage non-traditional applicants from
seeking similar positions in the future. We sincerely hope
that this missed opportunity does not create this expectation
for further choices. Future searches must increase the
diversity of university leadership at the sector and central

UK also hired a Dallas consulting
ﬁrm, Lamalie Amrop lntemational,

“The ﬁrm hired to assist in the
search was directed to return to the
drawing board twice to seek out
more women and minorities,"
Wethington noted.

LaGodna said, however, that the

results of the search prove the

“The fact that the consultants did
not come up with more women and

Philpot criticizes Kentucky Senate

Republican says God is only hope for ﬁxture

Jan-meat

State Sen. Tim Philpot addresses a group of
aboutzoOetudenteduringameetlngotUK
College Reptbllcane last night.

By Stephen D. Trimble
Assistant News Editor

UK College Republicans advertised State Sen. Tim
Philpot’s speech last night at the Student Center as a
conservative critique of the Kentucky Kernel.

Philpot, however, hardly mentioned the newspaper to
a crowd of about 200 that heckled him constantly for
focusing instead on legislative ills of the state of Ken-
tucky.

The Republican senator, who said he is “part of the
religious right that supposedly ruined the Republican
Party," called the state legislature's discussion of bills
“disgusting“ because most are seen by only a few sena-
tors before being brought to the floor for a vote.

This disgust, he said, led hint to ﬁle a lawsuit against
the entire Senate last year. The Kentucky Supreme
Court will consider Philpot's lawsuit March 16. he said.

Philpot also addressed the issue of abortion, claiming
a victory for his parental consent law. The bill, which
was approved by the Senate yesterday, prevents minors
from having abortions without the approval of a parent
or guardian.

The law is the ﬁrst of three abortion-related bills
Philpot backs tint he refers to as “pro-woman."

The second bill. be said. would make abortion clinics
cleaner and safer for women getting abortions by set-
ting stricter guidelines for the clinics.

Philpot said he hopes his third bill, which requires a
24-hour waiting period for abortions, also will pus the
Senate. The law mandates that women receive inform
tion about abortions dtring the waiting period.

“Doctors must inform patterns before a stagcry. but
thereisnoinformatiort aboutanabortionln thestateof

Kentucky," he said.

On pornography and sodomy, Philpot said: “I care
enough to say no.” Sodomy was illegal in Kentucky
until the state’s highest court reversed the law in 1992.

Philpot picketed a pornographic video store last sum-
mer attempting, he said, to put up a “stop sign” to pa-
trons entering the store.

Homosexuality also did not escape mention by Phil-
pot: “The issue is death," he said.

“The average age of death (for homosexuals) is 42. I
am 42. And that‘s too young to die."

Philpot also said the legal system is too over-
burdened to allow homosexuals legal protection from
discrimination.

“There‘s only so much room in the courts to handle
these cases," he said.

The senator encouraged campus Republicans to get
involved with current issues, saying: “Be involved in
the ﬁght. Be involved in the battle."

He added, however, that political parties cannot an-
swer the problems of America.

“There is no hope in being a Republican. There is
deﬁnitely no hope in being a Democrat. And there is no
hope in supporting Ross Perot," he said.

“The only hope is God Himself."

Don Todd, a Democrat who is mpaigning for Phil-
pot‘sScrtetescaLattendodthcspeechmdsaidtbein-
cumbcnt promoter “atom totalitarianism.”

“Do you want someone in Frmkfort that is effective
andcangetsomcthingdonemrdoyouwlttaraeach-
er?" he asked.

Scott 'I‘. Gillies, co-cxecutive director of UK's Col-
lege Republican, said hst night's turnout was better
thll expected. “especidly in the diversity of the audi-
cncc.”

Kite said the announcement is good news for AIDS
patients throughout the Commonwealth.

“My hope is that it will bring people out of the closet
in getting care," Kite said of the drug trials. “This will
improve the quality of our lives and lengthen our
lives."

Kite said he already has participated in one trial that
produced positive results.

Dr. Del Collins, UK Vice Chancellor for Research
and Graduate Studies, said the consortium will allow
Kentucky to compete with other states for large grants.

“By themselves, UK artd U of I., even though they
are university centers, do not have enough patients to
attract large pharmaceutical grants," Collins said.

The addition of private doctors to the consortium,
however, adds a substantial number of patients, he
said.

Dr. Charles Kennedy, a physician at Lexington Clin-
ic, said it also should bridge the gap between large uni-
versities and private practices.

The biggest beneﬁt of the new consortium, however,
may be the limited availability of experimental drugs

'ATF agents claim they -

were sexually harassed

By Marcy Gordon
Associated Press

WASHINGTON —- When spe-
cial agent Gayle Wyche com-
plained about sexual discrimination
in the Drug Enforcement Adminis-
tration. she says. a supervisor told
her he would solve the problem —
on condition she begin a personal
relationship with him.

“He suggested we would go bar
hopping, hot tubbing, etc'. together
on a weekly basis. He explained to
me that this was how other female
agents in the Denver division were
‘taken care of,‘ ” Wycbe testiﬁed to
a House investigative subcommit-
tee yesterday.

Shirley Ann Garcia, an investiga-
tive assistant for the Bureau of Al-
cohol. Tobacco and Firearms, said
the agent in charge in Dallas
ﬂicked his cigarette ashes down the
front of her blouse several times.

Wyche, Garcia and three other
female employees of federal law

enforcement agencies - including
the Federal Bureau of Investigation
—- alleged sexual harassment and
retaliation in a hearing of the
House Post Ofﬁce and Civil Ser-
vice subcommittee on oversight
and investigations.

Spokesmen for the FBI and the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and
Firearms didn‘t immediately return
telephone calls seeking comment.

“Federal law enforcement agen-
cies have often lagged rather
than excelled in abiding by the
(federal) sexual harassment guide-
lines." said District of Columbia
Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton.
a Democrat who once chaired the
federal Equal Employment Oppor-
tunity Commission.

“It is time that these agencies got
the message that in the employ-
ment relationship, sexual fun and
games have no place, especially
when one party does not want to
play the game at all."

Norton called the testimony

from the ﬁve women “tragically in-
structive."

She told Richard Stiener, direc-
tor of special investigations at the
General Accounting Ofﬁce, that
his approach was too “timid" be-
cause he recommended changing
the Drug Enforcement Administra-
tion's internal procedures for han-
dling sexual harassment com-
plaints rather than bringing in an
outside party.

A new report by the GAO, Con-
gress' investigative arm, on sexual
harassment complaints at the drug
agency was released at the hearing.

It concluded that processing
times for complaints were long, av-
eraging 382 days; investigations
and case ﬁles were incomplete; fe-
male employees feared retaliation
for reporting alleged harassment;
employees lacked understanding of
what behavior constitutes sexual
harassment; and the agency's disci-
plinary actions were perceived as
insufﬁcient to deter future harass-
ment.

The psychologists were clearly concerned that their
battle is uphill.

By Jim Drinkard
Associated Press

WASHINGTON —~ Four Connecticut psychologists
surrounded Rep. Nancy Johnson as she made her way
to Congress‘ ﬁrst health—care rcfonn drafting session,
pitching their arguments amid the hubbub of elevators
and corridors.

They and other mental health professions received a
sympathetic hearing at the White House while Presi-
dent Clinton’s plan was being developed, particularly
from Tipper Gore, wife of Vice President Al Gore.

“Things become very complicated when you have
this issue hitting Capitol Hill," said Bryant Welch, the
American Psychological Association‘s chief legislative
strategist. Clinton‘s bill, which provided mental health
coverage, is increasingly seen as a dead letter, and “the
landscape is constantly changing" as costs become the
controlling factor.

When Johnson, a Republican. suggested that psychol-
ogists should ﬁght their battles in the health-care mar-
ketplace and not in Congress, Welch contended market
forces already had directed excessive resources into pri-
vate mental hospitals.

Psychiatrists and hospitals “have a much more po_w-
erful lobbying and marketing force" than other, lower-
cost segments of the mental health care ﬁeld, he said.

Later Bryant and other psychologists sought counsel
from Rep. Ted Strickland, D-Ohio, who also is a psy-
chologist and has worked with prison inmates. “I think
we’ve got problems," Strickland told them.

“There is going to be terriﬁc pressure to minimize
what we do. We’ve got to ﬁght it. We may need to
walk to the edge of the cliff, and see who is the first to
go off."

Mental health treatment, and particularly the kind of
outpatient therapy that psychologists provide. should
be covered under any new health plan, they urged.
“This is a huge problem in our society," said Daniel
Abrahamson, director of a mental trauma treatment
center in South Windsor.

Johnson. a Republican member of the Ways and
Means subcommittee that has ﬁrst crack at devising a
new health-care plan, was ﬁrm: The government
should not deﬁne health beneﬁts, but leave that to be
fought out among medical professionals.

The 20-minute “walk and talk“ lobbying session was
one of hundreds of visits that took place yesterday on
Capitol Hill as Congress got down to the business of
rewriting the nation's health coverage.

In addition to the psychologists from across the
country. more than 300 dentists pushed to preserve the
tax deductibility of dental coverage; some 200 restau-
rant owners pressed their argument against forcing em-
ployers to pay for health care; and 500 members of the
American Medical Association met to prepare for a
similar lobbying blitz today.

“Timing is everything.“ said Wendy Webster,
spokeswoman for the National Restaurant Association.
whose lobbyists wore large stickers reading. “NO
Mandates."

The association also began airing television ads that

On Rick Pitino's weekly TV

who his current team, the NBA‘s

Mashbum offered one of Pitino‘s
current players, junior center Andre

Of course, Riddick won‘t be eli-
gible for the draft.

And even if he were, chances are

“Do you think Carolina is panick~

cause they have (Eric) Montross,
Rasheed (Wallace) and (Jerry)

"But we have a unique style of
play, and that‘s why we‘re not pan-
icking."

Sowing the seeds

Pitino took exception to the no-
tion that it would take an SEC
Tournament title to vault his team
to a No. 2 seed in the NCAA

ships.

But with the Southeastern
Conference Tournament loom-
ing this weekend in Memphis.
Tenn., Pitino is more concerned
with his UK Wildcats than with
the Mavericks. And he thinks
Riddick just might be able to
help that team win a champion-
ship of its own.

“I think we‘re on the verge of

Asked about the importance of
UK's 75-74 upset loss at South Car-
olina on Saturday, Pitino compared
the game to one during his ﬁnal
season coaching the NBA‘s New

The Knicks had their 26-game
home court winning streak snapped
by the Lakers. then had to play the
Detroit Pistons, the defending
World Champions, on the road. The
Knicks already had beaten the Pis-
tons three tirnes, so revenge was on
Detroit’s mind.

The Knicks weren‘t given much
of a chance to win but rolled over
the Pistons by 20 points.

“You can never worry about one

“That's one thing the NBA has
