Governor vetoes UK dorm projects, livestock center

Fletcher eliminates $370 million In state projects as effort to reduce
state debt; funding for pharmacy at Cumberlands stays In for now

By Dariush Shafa
rkarucxv KERNEL

Kentucky Gov. Ernie Fletcher vetoed two
UK dorm renovation projects and cut state
funding for a livestock research center and a
key local dam as part of a list of projects he
struck from the state budget late yesterday af-
ternoon.

Fletcher’s vetoes nixed renovations to the
Blazer Hall cafeteria and a proposed addition
of new heating and cooling systems in
Keeneland Hall. Together. the dorm renova-

tions totaled just more than $10 million.

The College of Agriculture took a hit, as
phase 11 work on the Livestock Disease Diag-
nostic Center was eliminated at a cost of $13. 5
million. Lock and Dam 9 — where Lexington
and UK draw their water supplies ~— was
scheduled for repairs to its reservoir on the
Kentucky River.

Those cuts are part of $370 million in ve-
toes from Fletcher, who said he cut what he
did to save the state money and reduce its
debt.

“By my veto. I am reducing our debt by

about $370 million while still providing more
bond funding for universities and community
colleges than any budget in the state’ 3 history,
including last year s, ” said Fletcher, a Republi-
can.

“I will not criticize any projects which the
legislature selected. But to reduce the level of
debt we must reduce the number of projects.”

UK’ s administration remains mostly
pleased with the final outcome said UK
spokesman Jay Blanton.

‘ We want to stress overall (that) we re very
happy with the budget," Blanton said.

But Blanton added that the cuts to the ren-
ovations and the lab were disappointing.

“(The diagnostic lab) is a project that’s crit-
ically important." Blanton said. “Our concern

 

“It's a real slap in
the face of the uni-
versity it's hard to
justify "

is that delaying it will only increase the cost.”

Several Lexington representatives in the
state legislature expressed frustration with the
cuts.

Faulty fan sparks Keeneland fire

By Megan Boehnke
THE KENTUCKY mm

A box fan caught fire in a
dorm window last night. forc-
ing the evacuation of North
Campus’ Keeneland Hall and
causing minimal damage to
the room in which it occurred.

One of two box
fans sitting in the
windowsill of a sec-
ond floor room
stopped working
when the motor
locked up. said Maj.

police. The fan be-
came overheated
and caught on fire
around 9 pm.

“The damage to
the room was very
mild," Monroe said.
The glass in the window
broke, the paint on the wall
blistered from the heat and
there was little water and
smoke damage, he said.

A student noticed the
flames coming from the win-
dow on the front side of
Keeneland Hall and told resi-
dent advisers Karima Samadi
and Anthony Tanner at the
front desk. Samadi then
pulled the fire alarm and RAs
told students who were loiter-
ing to leave the building.

“They thought it was a
drill," Tanner said. “We had to

Brittany Buchanan. a pre-
pharmacy freshman, noticed
that the fan in her room was
not running, but did not think
to unplug it before she left for

a meeting.

“I wouldn’t have
been back for anoth-

about five phone
calls from friends
telling me my room
was on fire,"
Buchanan said.

Her roommate,
Xeenia Tariq, an
undeclared fresh-
man, was among
those who called
Buchanan when she
had returned from a
trip to her home in
Pikeville. Ky.

“I pulled into the
Keeneland driveway
and saw my room was on fire.”
Tariq said. She said she was
concerned since couldn’t get

“She usually takes naps
around this time and my
phone wasn‘t working." Tariq
said. “I stayed here and saw
her walking toward me really
calm. I was just happy I saw
her."

'I‘ariq said she started cry-
ing when she got to the dorm.

“I thought, ‘Oh no, all my
books caught on fire’ and l
was worried about finals." she

Classrooms set
for $4.2 million
In renovations

By Dariush Shafa
THE KENTUCKY mm

Teaching his contemporary art history
class didn t used to be easy for UK art histo-
ry professor Rob Jensen.

“(The desks) looked like the desks you
had in middle school," he said. adding that
the outdated projector in the middle of the
room was the real problem.

“Not only could you not see (students
behind the projector). but they couldn‘t
hear you." he said.

“A third of the class wasn‘t really in
class.“

But new chairs for students and a new
digital projection system have now changed
his class. He can see his entire class. and
his students don‘t have to compete with the
projector to hear or see their professor.

“It creates a possibility to visualize not
only traditional art but also things that are
three-dimensional. It gives (students) a mu-
seum quality experience in the classroom."

“It’s changed the way we actually
teach.” Jensen said.

UK President Lee Todd announced a
$4.2 million plan yesterdz-ty to add and up-
grade technology in classrooms and im»
prove furnishings in 74 classrooms. build»
ings and areas around campus

The plan also includes upgrading 19 of
UK's “smart classrooms" and making an
additional 16 classrooms around campus
“smart." bringing the campus total of these
rooms to 117. These classrooms are Inter-
net-ready. wired for sound and have built-in
projectors.

Renovations have already begun in
some buildings and are scheduled to be fin
ished in time for the fall semester.

“It‘s something I‘ve wanted to do since
l've been here." Todd said of the renovation
effort. “I just think to brighten the campus
and put new things in is important."

“You get money for new buildings. You
don‘t get much for old ones." he said.
“You've got to save up."

The funding for the plan will come from
multiple sources. including 81 million in
savings set aside by the provost. UK‘s annu»
al renovation budget of 81 million and $2.2
million that Todd set aside from savings. he
said.

Those savings were also accumulated
from surplus student tuition which was

Art students fight to preserve Memorial Hall mural

By Brandon Cannada
THE KENTUCKY KERNEL

Art students and faculty gathered outside
Memorial Hall yesterday to protest the recent
proposal by the Student Government Senate
to remove the rare fresco painting in that
building.

UK associate art professor Doreen Mal-
oney said she and her students wanted to
open discussions about the painting that has
received negative attention from SC and oth-
ers on campus.

“We're here today to call for a dialogue.
not oppose a point of view," Maloney said.

“It’s really about racism and how we deal
with race."

The painting, which is the only fresco

no Asa; 3387135

style painting in this region was done by UK
graduate Anne Rice 0 Hanlon in 1934 as part
of the Public Works of Art project. The paint-
ing shows a panorama of Lexington and Ken-
tucky history.

The SG Senate passed a resolution earlier
this month to have the mural removed be—
cause it depicts blacks and Native Americans
in a light that could be considered offensive
by some students.

80 Sen. Sam Gaines said that he thinks
there could be a more positive part of Ken-
tucky history portrayed.

“Yes, it is historical artwork because of
the type of painting it is, but it doesn‘t high-
light positive aspects of our history." Gaines

“It’s a real slap in the face
of the university," said State
Sen. Ernesto Scorsone, DLex-
ington.

But not all of Lexington’s
representatives were upset
with Fletcher’s vetoes.

“All in all, I think UK
came out pretty good,” said
State Rep. Stan Lee, R-Lexing-
ton.

“I know the University of
Kentucky came out way
ahead of every school in the
state, by far,” he said.

State Rep. Kathy Stein, D-
Lexington, said the diagnos-
tics lab also has benefits for
the state as a whole.

“The agriculture depart-
ment at the University of
Kentucky is one of the specif-
ic things Kentucky has to rely
on,” Stein said. “Farmers
have to rely on the research at
the University of Kentucky"

“It’s hard to justify cutting
that out of the budget,” Scor-
sone added. “It’s a major
need.”

State Rep. Bob Damron, D-
Lexington, and Blanton both
expressed disappointment in
the cuts to the dorm renova-
tions were also disappointing,
particularly since the state
was only giving formal ap-
proval to do those projects.
UK was funding the projects
out of student housing and
dining fees.

“I’m very disappointed
that (Fletcher) would veto
projects from the state budget
that UK planned on using
their own funds to pay for,"
Damron said.

“Vetoing those, I think,

underscores the need for
more flexibility to be able to
issue bonds in cases where
the university has an individ.
ual revenue stream to fund
them," Blanton said.

“The fact remains: Ken-
tucky has a shortage of phar-
macists, particularly in
Southeastern Kentucky," he
said of the school in Williams-
burg, Ky. ‘Also, the tax dollars

Trustees face light agenda in meeting

By Blair Thomas
in: KENTUCKY KERNEL

The UK Board of
Trustees meeting today will
feature few actual votes —
but initial and important dis-
cussions of changes to how
UK evaluates its academic
departments and the state
budget picture will occur.
board members said.

The agenda includes
“routine” personnel actions
and formality appointments
that require the regular con-
sent of the board, members
said.

“There are no action
items on the floor at (today‘s)
meeting,” said Jeff Dembo,
faculty representative for the
Board of Trustees.

“Despite the recent ex-
citement around campus re-
garding salary changes for
the UK faculty and staff,
those are managerial issues
dealt with by (UK President)

 

Dr. (Lee) Todd,” he said. “We
may discuss them briefly but
(we) cannot take any action.”

The only new item up for
discussion is a proposed revi-
sion to the governing regula-
tions that UK uses to evalu-
ate the academic depart
ments on campus and their
chief administrative officers.

“Changes made to gov-
erning regulations are not
necessarily a result of a
problem with the system, but
rather, we get into those for
reasons of consistency, to
make sure that things are
consistent across the board
with those evaluations," said
Russ Williams, staff repre-
sentative to the board.

Changes in the reviews of
the academic departments
include new standards that
will be set by ad hoc commit
tees made up of faculty, ac-
cording to the board’s agen-
da.

“Discussions regarding

“ gm mi. Rd

the revisions to the govern-
ing regulations will mainly
be tweaking to clarify and ex-
tend the scope of what we al-
ready look at when it comes
to evaluations of faculty
members." Dembo said.
"This will only be the first of
two readings, so no real deci-
sion will come until June."

The board will also be
presented with a proposed
operating budget report for
2006 from the state legisla-
ture.

“No real changes in the
budget coming from Frank-
fort will be reviewed: we‘ll
only discuss any suggestions
to be voted on at our June
meeting," Williams said.

Todd will likely discuss
his opinions on how UK will
be affected by budget
changes discussed in the gov-
ernor's speech last night,
Dembo said.

WHAT'STHEDEAL? I Demystifying campus trends

 

Features

‘2}. 35'

College lessons in and out of class
crucial for ‘real-world’ success

This is the true story of 28.000
strangers picked to live on a university
campus to have their lives changed. and
to find out what happens
when students stop being
geeks , and start being
real. The real world:
University of Kentucky.

Let‘s get real here
for a second. What do
you think you will re-
member ntost about
your trials through col-
lege? If you think it‘s
calculating those deriva-
tives you learned about
in MA 123. then please
stop reading here. OK
Dexter? You know what.
on second thought. continue. You may
need to read this.

If you haven‘t gotten the point by
now. then I‘m not sure there is much
hope left for you. I have spent countless
hours these past two years writing in
an attempt to bring to you the most rel-
evant insight on student trends and
concerns. Whether it was teaching you
how to dump your high school sweet-
heart. save a penny, communicate with
a drunken roommate. or just flat-out
how to handle yourself around other
people. I've just about covered any-
thing you might give a crap about. But.
I‘m not going to give up.

As a graduating senior who will be
receiving degrees in creative useless-
ness and popularity enhancement. I
feel it is my duty to now share with
you a topic yet to be unleashed in any
university newspaper: the true mean»
ing of college. I usually charge 315.000
for the type of insight you are about to
receive. but I'll consider this tax de-
ductible.

You might still be wondering the
correct answer to the question I posed
earlier in today‘s lesson. You‘re getting
warmer if your answer had nothing to
do with a textbook or Scan-tron. Four.
five. or six years of college (the latter
applies to my drunken roommate)
leaves one with countless experiences
anti lessons learned. Although attend-
ing class and applying knowledge to
test your academic skills is an impor-
tant personal responsibility and educa—
tional instrument. I‘m willing to bet
the thing you take away the most from
your college years is the relationships
you have created.

If you can. think back to the first
time you were introduced to this cam-
pus. and try to remember that feeling
of starting a new life. For all of us. it
meant a new school. Anti for many of
us. it even meant new friends and a
new town. It was a new beginning. and
it wasn‘t easy.

For me. I‘ll never forget that first
day moving in Kirwan Tower in Au-
gust 2002. The sky was clear blue. The
wind kept you cool from the often-an-
noying summer heat. And. in my opin-
ion. the rumors of beautiful women
flocking around I'K‘s campus proved to
be true. You couldn't have told me life
got much better than that unless of
course you told me the campus went
"wet" again and I didn‘t have to sneak
my bourbon into the dorms anymore.

Everything you do as an undergrad
involves the simplest forth of thinking
and understanding. The key to all of it.
though. is learning from all experi-
ences. You can’t change what happened
yesterday. or predict what will happen
tomorrow. but you can be ready for
what lies ahead by applying what you
have learned today. Some of the great-

est memories we will have as adults
will be the times we are spending now
in college.

I‘ll never forget a lot of things
about my time spent here. I‘ll never
forget the professors who went beyond
their call of duty to teach students
about whatever subject. in addition to
life. I‘ll never forget waiting for hours
in the ticket-lottery lines for home bas-
ketball tickets. I‘ll never forget the late
nights at the World Famous Two Keys.
I'll never forget having an exam at 8
am. and waking up the same morning
at 8:13 am. I'll never forget The Ker—
nel. who allowed me to so exquisitely
express my concerns for students. I‘ll
never forget those who were there to
correct me when I was wrong (which is
rare). and those who were there for me
no matter what.

To me. the true meaning of college
is being able to deal with both inside
and outside classroom situations. ap-
preciating the people who might guide
us and moving on. That is what we tru-
ly learn.

We are all capable of influencing
people in both positive and negative
ways. How do you want to be remem-
bered? How do you wish to leave your
legacy here at the University of Ken-
tucky’.’

I‘ll leave you with that. This is Ken-
ny Moyer ladies and gentlemen. sign-
ing off for the final time.

Story of the Year brings Midwest rock to Memorial Coliseum

KERNEL MUSIC CRlTlC

Sex. drugs and rock ‘n' roll.

These three things are often cited
as requisites for being a rock star. but
for Story of the Year. it's fans. music
and moshing.

All these elements fueled their en-
ergetic concert at Memorial Coliseum
Thursday night.

The five St. Louis rockers and spe-
cial guests Greeley Estate and Adair
played for the first time at [K to ecsta
tic fans.

"We just came front the UK. the col-
lective countries. anti we flew straight
into another UK." said lead singer Dan
Marsala. reflecting on the irony of his
surroundings.
