Education rally to promote increased funding

By JAY BLANTON
Executive Editor

David Holton, chairman for Stu-
dent Advocates for Higher Educa—
tion. has been asked several times
whether students can make a differ~
ence in getting more funding for the
state’s eight universities.

And Holton says that students
“won't know until we try."

On Tuesday. Holton and university
students will get the opportunity to
try and make a difference when
SAHE sponsors a march and rally
on the Capitol in Frankfort in sup-
port of higher education funding.

“The worse thing that can happen
is for us to miss an opportunity to
have an impact," said the third-year
UK law student. "The opportunity is
(there) for students to play a signifi-
cant trole) in the state‘s future."

The march to the Capitol begins at
2 pm. Students will begin to assem-
ble at 1:30 on Second Street and will

Budget

proceed up Capital Avenue to the
steps of the Capitol building.

At the Capitol, four speakers will
speak to the marchers in a special
ceremony.

Afterward, Holton and the eight
university student government pres-
idents will present a resolution — re-
questing more funding for higher ed
ucation — to the state Senate, House
and possibly Gov. Wallace Wilkin-
son.

Following the march, a rally will
be held at the Capital Plaza
Dudgeon Civic Center Arena at 3:30
pm. where student groups will pro
vide entertainment and more
speeches will be presented.

A similar rally was held during

the last session of the General As—
sembly two years ago to urge fund-
ing for higher education. This year a
march has been added.

'IVvo years ago, however. students
were rallying to praise what had
happened in terms of funding for
higher education.

Gov. Martha Layne Collins' bud-
get proposal for higher education _,
which was later enacted — recom-
mended a 20percent increase in
funding for the state‘s universities.

This time around the situation is
vastly different. Wilkinson‘s budget
only recommends a 0.5-percent in-
crease in funding for state universi-
ties in the 1988-89 fiscal year and a
5-percent increase the following
year.

But UK administrators say that
the slight increase in funding for
next year is really no increase at
all.

The governor‘s budget. if enacted
by the state legislature. would mean

orily Stitltmoo in additional state rev-
enues in 1988—89. tIK needs almost
$19 million just to stay even.

Consequently. this year‘s rally is
much more important in terms of in-
fluencing legislators to increase
higher education funding, said Rob-
ert Bell. chairman for the Kentucky
Advocates for Higher Education.

'I\vo years ago students were ral-
lying in support of a budget request
by the governor. "which we were
very happy with and very pleased
with." Bell said. “That‘s not the cir-
cumstance today

SGA votes to give boot
to vice president post

By JULIE ESSELMAN
Staff Writer

The Student Government Associa-
tion gave final approval last night to
an amendment that will abolish the
position of executive vice president.

The Senate approved the measure
by a 26-5 vote, three votes more than
the required two-thirds majority.

The amendment will take effect
next year.

At its last meeting two weeks ago,
the senate gave its initial approval
of the amendment by a vote of 25-9.
Senate by-laws require that amend-
ments pass by a two-thirds majority
in two senate meetings.

“I think it's great," said Exec-
utive Vice President Brad Dixon,
the primary sponsor of the bill. “I‘m
really glad about it."

The amendment provides that stu-
dents elect one president and one se-
nior vice president. The president
would then be able to appoint a chief
executive officer to oversee the op-
erations of the executive branch.

Speaking before the senate, Dixon
repeated most of the arguments that
have been made in favor of the
amendment.

“The office of the executive vice
president was meant to be as a man-
ager, but in history that hasn’t hap-
pened that way," he said. “Tradi-
tionally the president wants to
control the executive branch and
that'atheirright."

There was some concern about
possible political motivations behind
the amendment since student gov-
ernment elections are less than two
months away.

“if you‘re thinking about it politi-
cally and you vote against it,
you're being hypocritical,“ said Sen-
ator at Large James Rose. “i wish
everyone for once would look at the
merits of the bill."

“This office was created for politi-
cal reasons,“ Dixon said. “Are you
going to keep it for political rea-
sons? if you vote against this bill be-
cause it helps tor hurts) one group,
that’s political motivation. In that
case, I would rather you abstain.“

There was relatively little opposi-
tion to the amendment voiced during
the senate‘s meeting. Instead, many
senators reiterated their support for
it. “Everyone agrees that if you can
appoint someone to that position,
you can get a lot more done in a
year,“ said LCC Senator Chris
Essid.

Essid said he ind gathered 65 sig-
nature: from LCC students support-
ingtheamendment.

Communications Senator Jason
Williams had a bill in executive
committee that would require
straight ticket voting in student elec-
tions, but after the aenate‘a vote, he
said he would withdraw his bill.

Dixon said he Wt the amend-
ment would not significantly affect
any students who are planning on

BRAD DIXON

running for office in the upcoming
SGAelections.

“When the bill was submitted,
people were already thinking about
plan ‘B,‘ " he said. in fact, he said
“it may encourage some people to
run who otherwise might not have. "

in other business last night, the
senate:

- passed by acclamation a bill
urging the UK administration to put
the replacement of the CAT VAN as
a top priority of its transportation
and safety budget. The van provides
evening transportation and security
for UK faculty and staff. In addition
to having mechanical problems, the
current van can only service one

handicapped person.

OKs bill on

By ('"ARLES “til .HC

FRANKFOR'I‘ A "marital

give Kentucky women another way
to escape domestic violence was ap-
proved yesterday by the House
Judiciary-Criminal (‘ommittee

There were objections that sex
acts within marriage. no matter how

Escorts provided
by campus groups

SGA service to feature set routes;
escorts’ background checked by police

By SHARON RATCHFORD
Staff Writer

LlK‘s Student Government Asso-
ciation will begin a six—week escort
service Feb. 21 to help students
travel safely across campus.

“We‘re trying to encourage people
to walk in groups across campus,“
said Susan Bridges. SGA senior vice
president and author of the pro-
gram.

Unlike many such services that
have been tried, the SGA escorts
will not be on call. Instead. they will
walk mapped-out routes around des-
ignated segments of the campus,
kind of like a bus service, Bridges
said. The escorts will accompany
students while they walk on those
routes.

Bridges said SGA is working with
with the UK Police Department to
design a route, but tentative spots
include the library, the Student Cen-
ter and Donovan and Blazer resi-
dence halls. Pamphlets will be dis
tributed to publicize the route and
the times that the escort group will
be at each point.

The service will be offered from 8
pm. to midnight, Sunday through
Thursday.

Each employee will wear a bright
orange vest and carry an ID.
badge. The escorts will announce
themselves when they reach a stop,
Bridges said.

All the employees must go through
a police check of their background
and an orientation process before
they start work.

in the orientation session, which is
scheduled for next Thursday, UK po-
lice will brief the escorts on their
duties and on how to handle emer-
gencies, said Stephanie Bastin, cam-
pus safety coordinator for UK po-
lice.

Bastin made it clear that the pur-
pose of the escorts is simply to pro-
vide safety in numbers. If an emer-
gency would come up. they would
contact a police officer.

“They’re not there to protect the
people they're escorting.“ Bastin
said. “They‘re not charged with the
responsibility of a police officer."

The Student Senate approved
about $1,800 for the program in No-
vember to be used for escort sala-
ries. advertisements and general
promotion of the service. Bridges
said.

If the program gets a good re-
sponse, Bridges will request more
funds from the senate so the pro-
gram can be continued through the
rest of the semester. .

“I would hope that since this es-
cort service has the backing of the
Student Government Association. it
would go over twell l.“ Bastin said.

If the service is successful.
Bridges said she would like the SGA
to take it on as an ongoing project.

The SGA is paying the escorts to
help ensure reliability. Bridges said.
From a staff of 10, three employees
will work a night. They will be paid
$4 an hour, said John Floyd, a chem-
ical engineering junior who will be
one of the escorts.

Floyd said one of the biggest bene-
fits of the SGA service is that the
employees are checked out by po-
lice. Some people are hesitant to call
volunteer-escort services because
they do not know if the escorts
themselves are safe, he said.

“I think if enough people are
made aware of it, and it‘s around
for awhile," people might use the
SGA service, Floyd said.

Information for this story was also
gathered by Contributing Writer
Kem Gosney.

Sigma Chi accompanying students
to and from fraternity functions

By EVAN SILVERSTEIN
Staff Writer

Sigma Chi fraternity has orga-
nized a service to escort party
guests home from fraternity func-
tions.

The program, known as the Sigma
Chi Escort Service, was first used at
Sigma Chi‘s Jan. 29 party. it's a re-
sult of two meetings the chapter had
with UK Chancellor for the Lexing-
ton Campus Art Gallaher.

"The same concepts were reiter-
ated both times — that something
was needed for campus safety,"
said Scott Damron, who is a mem-
ber of Sigma Chi and the program's
founder.

Damron said the service is needed
because of some dangerous areas
around campus where incidents
have been reported.

One of those areas, accordim to
Damron, is the dimly lit Clifton Ave-
nue circles, located near the Sigma
Chihouae.

“From what i understand. the cir-
cles are just prime (for troubiel,"
Damron said. “fiom north side of

campus, that‘s a cut-through and
also from the sorority houses to
south side of campus. That is where
I've understood that some girls have
had close encounters (with strang-
ersl."

Damron said anyone at a Sigma
Chi party may request an escort.
who will walk them to their destina-
tion. There is no charge for the serv-
ice.

Escorts wear Sigma Chi apparel.
including large buttons with the as
cort service logo written in bold let-
ters. Escorts are required to fill out
a In telling who they escorted, at
what time and where they took
them. .

Although escorts walked home
only seven people during the first
night of the service. Damron said he
is entimaiaatic about the future of
theaerviceandthinkathenumberof
people asking for escorts will in-
crease as the service becomes bet-
terknown.

So far, be said the program has
beeriwell-received.

Claiborne gives answer
to ‘where’s the beef?’

By CHRIS ALDRIDGE
Staff Writer

In terms of beef, the Kentucky
football signees should get a
Grade A rating.

Headlining the list of 27 new Cats
is a dozen linemen to beef up the de-
pleted ranks in the UK corral.

"We feel like we‘ve got a good
group of linemen, both offensive and
defensive." Kentucky coach Jerry
Claiborne said. “They've got good
height. and they‘ve got good weight
at this particular time in their ca-
reer "

All but one of the 12 linemen stand
Hoot-3 or better. and all weigh in
excess of 230 pounds. This should
help fill the v01d created by a grad-
uation in which Kentucky lost four
starting offensive linemen

Claiborne said the new Cats have
both size and mobility.

“We feel like most of them can
run pretty well.“ Claiborne said
"And that's just gotten to be a must
in football nowadays."

i'K again failed to sign the state‘s
\Ir, Football — linebacker Kurt
Barber of Paducah Tilghman. He‘s
heading west to Southern California.
Last year. Frank Jacobs chose
Notre Dame.

Although the top catch got away.
the Cats did receive some needed
help in the offensive backfield UK
signed four. including two junior col-
lege transfers who may be able to
step in and contribute immediately

”Were-mimic,

to go with the peOple that we have
returning to our football team,‘
Claibomesaid.

But judging from their careers
thus far. probably the two best play-
ers the Cats inked yesterday are
quarterback Ryan Hockman and
running back Alfred Rawis.

Hockman, at 6-8, 190 pounds, was
named a Super Prep Magazine All—
American as a senior when be con-
nected on 121 of 225 passes for 1,699
yards and 21 touchdowns. He was
also named the Dial Ohio Player of
the Year and was a member of Unit-
ed Press lnternational's All«State
team as a senior.

“We think he‘s an outstanding
quarterback. " Claiborne said.

The 5-10. Wmund Rawls origi-
nally signed with Southeastern Con-
ference rival Georgia after rushing
for 2,040 yards and scoring 36 touch-
downs his senior year at Wilcox
County High School in Pitts, Ga.

But after failing to meet the
NCAA‘s Proposition 48 standards for
academic eligibility, Rawls opted
for Northeastern Oklahoma A&M.
the same school that produced UK
senior tight end Charlie Darrington.

Last season, Rawls rushed for a
Mid-America Bowl-record 244 yards
and scored two TDs as NE.
Oklahoma defeated Hinds (Miss. ).

Rawls and defensive lineman
Scott Booth, a transfer from North
East Mississippi Community Col~
lege. are currently enrolled at UK.
That means both players can partic-
ipate in spring practice. something
that Claiborne likes.

To encourage students and fac-

ulty to attend, Senate Cormcil -

Chairman Bill Lyons said he was
asking faculty to invoke a “rule
of reason" in letting students
miss class to attend the rally.

Student Government Associa-
tion President Cyndi Weaver said
she expects a large University
contigent to attend the rally, but
she said it’s hard to anticipate
the numbers because many stu-
dents will drive, since UK is close

3,000 people to participate in the

up to 6,000 turn out.

A march of several thousand
people is not done every day or

Roselle can certainly attest to
that.

“We got a really good response from
them."

“I think it’s a great idea,” said
Bridget O'Neill, a member of Kappa
Kappa Gamma. “I think it makes
you feel a lot safer on campus. If
there is a guy around it makes mat-
ters a lot easier."

However, the service could create
some problems. according to UK Po-
lice Chief W.l-l. McComas.

“l have some reservations about
it." McComas said.

McComas said he was especially
concerned about the service not
being affiliated with the UK Police.

“To run it haphazard or without
some very strict controls on it, I
think that they could very well open
themselves up to some public crit-
icism," he said.

One of the people who took advan-

tage of the escort service was Mary
Jean Gleeson.

Gleeson, a French junior, was es-
corted from the Sigma Chi house to
the Delta Zeta house, where she is a
member.

“I think it is a very courteous
service . . . it says a lot about the
guys in the fraternity,“ she said.

Panhellenic Adviser Becky Head-
ley said the escort service is “com-
mendable.”

Headley, who served on a panel of
faculty members concerned with
campus saftey four years ago, said
the service is a good way to improve
campus safety.

“There is no doubt that there are
areas of this campus that are not en—
tirely safe, whether it’s day or
night," she said. “I think definitely
it’s going to improve the situation to
a degree for women at that party.”

“Rape is criminal behavior, no
matter who is the victim. and it

Phyllis Alexander of Lexington,

But Rep. Tom Kerr opposed the
bill, saying he objected to creating
an offense within marriage equal to
common rape. “It should be a more
serious crime for a stranger to force

himself on you," said Kerr, D-Tay-

Viewpoint

Sigma Chi escorts

should be

screened

by UK police dept.

Sigma Chi fraternity should be commended for a estab-
lishing an escort service for its party guests.

Some areas students may have to walk through to get to
the Sigma Chi house are poorly lit and possibly dangerous
at night or early in the morning.

Scott Damron. a member

of Sigma Chi and the origi-

nator of the service. has said that some of the areas are

"prime”
would dispute that,

locations for trouble We don't think anyone

However. the manner in which Sigma Chi is choosing
these escorts leaves a bit to be desired. All chapter mem-
bers are eligible and automatically accepted as escorts.

Now while we realize that the brothers of Sigma Chi
have no reason to doubt the integrity and responsibility of
each other. the girls being escorted might. And that doubt

would be justified.

Things dwell in people‘s past that could only turn 'up
through a proper check of police records. We're not saying

that any of the Sigma Chi's

have lurid histories or even

police records What we are saying is that no one has any-
way of knowing unless a proper check is done.

l'K Police Chief WH. .\lcComas has said that he has
"some reservations about it." So do we.

11' there is no process or restrictions through which to
\arify the responsibility of an escort. Sigma Chi can‘t pos-
sibly hope to gain a positive response from the campus.

The l'K Student Government Association has began or-
ganizing an escort service of their own that would cater to
all l‘K students traveling anywhere on the campus. But
StiA‘s escort service is taking necessary steps to establish

itself

SGA is working with [K Police to check the records of
escort applicants. Sigma Chi should do the same.

If safety is the premise. all steps should be taken to
make sure that it is the outcome.
