Police hegin impounding illegally p

Ofi‘icials cite safety reasons

By Nick Rhoton

Late last week, UK police took
torches to the locks of at least five
students’ bicycles that officers said
were parked illegally.

Early this semester, a handout
was given to resident advisers out-
lining new bike parking regula-
nons

According to the new rules,
when a bike is locked to anything

will be impounded.

However, some of the students
whose bikes were removed are
upset because they don’t think
they were given enough notice
about the new policy.

Michelle \Vilson, an unde—
clared sophomore, locked her bike
on a rail outside an emergency exit
at Kirwan 11. She was later told by
Lt. \Villiam Hill that her bike was
“causing a safety hazard" because
it blocked an emergency exit.

cHE conlerence
tackles access
to Ky. higher ed

By Stephen Trimhle

Erecutive Editor

Access to higher education in Kentucky may be
harder for future Kentucky students, a state education
official yesterday said.

State universities were so successful
enrolling Kentucky students in the
19805 that there isn’t enough money
: in the 1990s to pay for their quality
education, said Joe Bill Campbell, a
member of the state Council on High-
er Education, at the Governor’s Con—
ference on Higher Education Tnistee—
ship in Lexington.

He warned both council members
and university leaders assembled at the opening ses—
sion of the two—day conference that dwindling state
sup ort and reater enrollments may lead to the
ban ptcy of higher education.

“We cannot continue to educate more and more
students with fewer dollars,” said Campbell, a Bowling
Green attorney.

“If that continues, we’ll have a higher

education in this state that’s

broke — both literally and fig-
We cannot

ty enrollments picked up 22

ege attendance rose 104 per—
cent.

UK President Charles
Wethington said he sympa-
thizes with the council’s situa-
tion but asked it to consider
seeking more state support
before cutting admissions
numbers.

“Whether black or white,
whether rich or poor, we are limiting the equal oppor—
tunity that pco 1e have to go to a quality, four-year
institution in tlie Commonwealth of Kentucky,” he
said. -

Kentucky is still ranked 48th nationally for adults
who have completed any post-sec-
ondary education. \Vethington said
access to to a college education
shouldn’t be restricted until the state
has reached an average national rank.

“If we give up, I think it’s a mis-
take,” he said.

Wethington saidf afterward that
curbin the trend of alling state sup-
w.""n"°n port is Etill feasible.

“I believe that higher education is so important for
this state that the legislature would lend their support
if it is packaged ri ht,” he said.

The council a so discussed alternatives to cuttin
enrollments, including cutting funding for remedia

programs.

Students unveil display for Clary

By Perry Brothers
.Ve‘ws Editor

Architecture students worked late last night
assembling an exhibition displaying the contents
of former assistant architecture professor Mark
Clary’s dossier.

Samples of Clary‘s work, evaluation letters and
other excerpts from the dossier will fill the walls of
Pence Hall‘s first floor hallway.

A mid-October decision from Chancellor for
the Lexington Campus Robert Hemenway will
determine the outcome of the two-year-long
tenure case.

Clary's tenure was denied in the spring of 1993,
appealed in the fall of 1993, and denied again this
spring before the University Senate Advisory
Committee on Privilege and Tenure recommend—
ed that Hemenway reconsider the case.

“I feel like this (exhibition) is a pay back to
Mark,” said Lily LS a second—year architecture

 

Jack Blanton, vice
chancellor of administration, said
he didn't believe that there was a
rack shortage.

“There are a lot of racks out
there," Blanton said, “and students
need to accept that they might not
be able to park right outside the
building they are entering.”

Blanton said he plans to check
on the racks at the Kirwan-Bland-
ing Complex today. He said that if
there is a shortage of bike racks,
the solution is simple.

“We make those racks our-
selves , and we’ll keep putting
them out until the campus is satu-
rated with them.”

“He's given me so much of himself, I feel like I
owe him," she said.

\tValter Zausch, the president of the Architec-
ture Student Council, said he and several other
students organized the exhibit to educate those
who are not familiar with Clary’s work.

“We didn't just want to preach our beliefs
about his work, we decided to allow people to edu-
cate themselves and the way to do that in architec-
ture is through exhibition,” Zausch said.

The exhibit will open to the public at 2 pm.
today, but there will not be a formal reception,
said jeff Phelps, a fifth—year architecture student.

“It is not a show,” Phelps said. “There will be
no official opening because that implies a celebra-
tion."

He said he hopes other students in other UK
colleges will visit the exhibit and partake in the

“.8. troops seize
weapons at Haiti outposts

P( )RT—AU-PRINCE, Haiti -~~ American military
patrols rolled through the capital searching for
weapons yesterday after seizing 1,000 weapons at a
border outpost and hundreds more at a paramilitary
training base.

The voice of exiled President Jean-Bertrand Aris—
tide was heard on state radio for the first time in years.
State media, which had banned his voice, was under
the control of Haiti’s coup leaders until American
troops seized the installations Friday. The US. troops
are charged with providing stability and security in
Haiti during the transition period before Oct. 15,
when the nation‘s top military leaders are to resign,
making way for Aristide’s return.
