Ready for a co—op experience
that will prove beneficial to
your future? How about maybe
starting off your career with
NASA or the National Security
Agency?

Many of UK’s‘ engineering
students are catching on to a
program that provides first-
hand work and pay with real
companies.

Tracy \Villiams, 20, a
mechanical engineering major
at UK, landed a chance to work
at N;\S:\’s Langley Field in
Virginia in August.

Her time spent working at
.N:\S:\ will provide her with
first—hand experience and a
good chance for a career with
the L'.States' prime space agen—
cy.

\\'illiams. however, is not a
one time success story. In fact,
she is only one of?” engineerv
ing students working for private
LiitllpdnlC's.

;\fter an interview, the stu~
dent will go through three tours
of the company in order to get
acquainted with the operation
and to show their prospect for
future employment.

Clinton ponders
vetoing spending liill

\\'.-\SlIl.NG’li( )N — \Vith only hours left for
President Clinton to decide whether to sign a
defense spending bill he says is too costly, Republi-
cans said yesterday they would not give him what
he wants in return: billions extra for domestic pro,
grams.

Instead, (it )P leaders said they would consider
easing planned cuts in education, job training and
other Clinton domestic initiatives only after the
two sides strike a lwidget—balancing deal.

“You cant divorce the two," House Speaker
Newt Gingrich, R—Ga., told reporters. “It's all the
budget."

The (i( )P strategy further complicated an enor~
mously tangled decision for the president, who was
traveling in Northern lreland. Clinton already was
worried that vetoing the Pentagon spending mea—
sure might jeopardize Republican support for his
plan to send a 20,000~troop ['S. peacekeeping
force to Bosnia.

.\s he pondered his decision, bipartisan budget
negotiators broke off talks until Monday, with each
side accusing the other of not bargaining seriously.
The negotiations, which began 'l‘uesday. are aimed
at finding a compromise plan for balancing the
budget by 3003.

.-\s they stalked out of their Capitol meeting
room. Republicans said Clinton had not yet pro—
posed a true balanced budget, and Democrats said
the (i( )P was i‘eftising to discuss the impact on the
public of their plans to carve savings from .\ledi~
care, Medicaid and other social programs.

“\\'e have engineering stu-
dents walking around with
three or four job offers, not
knowing which one to take,"
said College of Engineering
Director of (Io—ops Donna
Hewett. “\Vith companies
reluctant to hire employees full-
time and without experience,
the co-op program is in full
swing. It provides the experi-
ence along with the ‘known
entity" factor that makes it a lot
easier to get a job after college.”

The payroll is also a great
incentive to consider with co—
op work.

Most companies pay stu-
dents $8.50 to $16 per hour
without the usual employee
benefits.

Of course it is not the full
pay of a professional engineer,
but it does sound a lot better
than $4.35 made working in a
fast—food kitchen.

llewett said that last May
around ()3 percent of the UK
engineering students involved
in the program had jobs or

ing students were able to enter

The UK Chandler Medical Center‘s
Child Abuse Referral Evaluation Clinic
has received a $25,000 grant from the

The grant was presented yesterday by
Attorney General Chris Gorman to
Katherine Bright, director of the abuse
center and a graduate ofthe UK College

“The grant is very necessary for the
operation and maintenance ofthe clin—
ic," said Connie “'ithers, staff assistant

The purpose of the clinic is to pro-
vide a medical examination to determine
how badly a child has been traumatized

and then collect evidence of the abuse.

Bright said the exam has three parts. ic.

First, it provides authorities with evi-
dence to conduct an investigation. Sec—
ond, they check the child for sexually
transmitted diseases.

Last, they reassure the child that the
incident wasn't their fault.

“()ften children feel like it's their
fault they‘ve been sexually abused,"
“'ithers said. “The exam lets them know
it‘s not their fault.‘

The grant will be used to hire a coor—
dinator, who they hope will keep things

more organized.

“Having a coordinator is important
because there needs to be someone to
communicate between the child, doctors
and lawyers," said Barbara Greider,

The coordinator would take referrals
and collect information from the child‘s
guardians, social workers and physicians.

The coordinator also would inform
the child ofthe various processes before
the exam so they can avoid .iny tiirther
trauma.

The attorney general said he believes
this clinic is vital to the needs of the state

because authorities need a comptieiit

medical exam to investigate their cast“
and children.

In a news release, he said the clinic

offers services not readily available in all
areas of the state and is instrumental in
educating other physicians about child
sexual abuse.

WOI‘kSllﬂll BXIIIOI‘BS cultural awareness on campus

By Gary Wull

Stuff” 'riter

How do we make our soci-
ety more aware of cultural dif-
ferences?

This is a question that par-
ticipants tried to answer yes-
terday at a campus workshop,
sponsored by the Central
Kentucky Educational Coop—
erative.

There were three goals to

variables as it could in a one-
day Workshop.

Some of the cultural varh
ables include gender, socio—

- ‘I

economic and race. Hender-
son said sometimes females
are discouraged from going
into a male-dominated fields
like engineering and physics.
The multicultural work-
shop is only one aspect of the
year-long project proposed by
Henderson. The workshop is
part of the Goals 2000 project
for the education cooperative.
The cooperative consists of
21 small to medium size

accustomed to," Henderson
says in his grant proposal.

()ne of the major efforts of
the project will be to enhance

the instructor's comfort level
in dealing with students and
parents of different racial and
ethnic backgrounds.

“In many cases, our schools
do not practice the kinds of
behaviors which will prepare
students to function in a
multi-ethnic society," Hen-
derson said.

To help him complete his
project he has hired Dino
\Villiams, director of multicul—

work." Henderson said. “They
help us plan and deliver our
services to the public."

The study was done by a team at the Harvard
.\letlical School and written by Dr. lchiro Kavvachi.
an assistant professor ofmedicine.

“Shift work is a type of stress." he said. “If yoi;
disrupt the body‘s daily biological clock, the body
responds by pouring out stress~related hormones
and these things generally do bad things for the
IN “Ty.“

Kawachi said “rotating night shifts also .ire asso—
ciated with reduced job»related performance and
higher levels of perceived stress."

The study focused on nursing because it is one
of the few professions in which a large number of
women work night shifts.

Gingrich denies ethics charges

Gingrich angrily denied on yesterday that a GOP
political committee had illegally supported his
1090 election. Democrats seized on newly released
documents to challenge the speaker's conduct.

your murit IIut III the III‘IIL'tII‘?

J.(l.: I guess, in II sense. If you
can't sell a T-shirt with our name
on it, or something like that, or a
hunch of people can't relate us to
other bands and put us in a little
scene, then it does become diffi-
cult, and the fact that we do do
things so much differently than
other people, it does make it hard-
er for us to relate to the general
mass.

Q: Hot." different I.\'_\I’UIII' live their
tbun :r/mtyou but'c rerun/(II?

J.(I.: The live show is a lot dif-
ferent in a sense that we don‘t
necessarily dote upon small
details. It's very dynamic and the
songs do sound very faithful to the
album but they're played more as
a rock type of thing. It's not so
tripped out so much as it is rock
‘n‘ roll live.

Q: Hui tbe departure of Dave
Baker affected the [mud mud)?

J.(I.: It has, I guess, from the
fan‘s point of view, but from our
point of view it really hasn't
changed much. It’s funny because
he was the lead singer (when we
had a lead singer), and we used to
be II lot more experimental and a
lot more open to change, and now
that we don't have him, we've
become a bit more regimented in
our approach. and I think that his
absence in some ways has forced
us to become more of a tighter
band..
