SGA’s Lohman
Won’t seek reform
of search process

By GREGORY A. HALL
Senior Staff Writer

Outgoing Student Government
Association President Sean Lohman
says his last two Board of Trustees
meetings aren‘t the right time to
seek reforms of UK's presidential
search process.

Lohman, who as student trustee
was excluded from the last presiden-
tial search committee, has said he
wanted reforms about student repre-
sentation on committees recom-
mending the president and the inter-
im president.

The SGA Senate passed two reso-
lutions last spring, calling for the
student trustee to be on the search
committee and calling for student
representation on the committee rec-
ommending the interim president.
bohman told the senate he would
consider taking their resolutions to
the board.

He has two board meetings left to
pass the search amendments which
he has considered bringing to the
board for over a year. An amend-
ment must be proposed at one meet—
ing and then passed at the next
meeting after 30 days.

Lohman said yesterday that many
board members think the timing is
wrong for consideration of the
amendments because UK just con-
cluded a decisive search in the fall.

“I would love to see it passed. but
the fact is that it's not going to,"
Lohman said.

He also said he doesn't want
board members seeking reappoint-
ment to be forced to vote against the
chairman.

He said he will work with incom-

ing SGA president Scott Crosbie to
get the amendments passed after his
term.

“We’re still so much in a healing
process (after the last search) that
we just don’t need it (now)," he
said.

Lohman placed amendments on
the December board agenda but
withdrew them, citing timing.

In December 1989, Lohman vot-
ed against Charles Wethington be-
coming the interim president and
against allowing the interim presi-
dent to be a candidate for the full-
time position.

Those votes placed him in opposi-
tion to Foster Ockerman, the UK
trustees chairman, who appointed
the student member of the presiden-
tial search committee.

Ockennan was appointed to the
board by Gov. Wallace Wilkinson.
Wethington was rumored to be the
front-runner in the search because
of his longtime friendship with Wil-
kinson.

Because of that scenario, Lohman
said bringing the issue up would be
interpreted as a slap at Wethington
— even though he says it isn't.

“I can say that as much as I want
and people aren't going to believe
it,” Lohman said. “People are al-
ways going to see this as a vote
against Dr. Wethington.“

Interviewed Wednesday, Weth-
ington said he favors student repre-
sentation on those committees but
that more than just students need to
be considered.

He mentioned other sectors of the
University — like the community

SGA appointments

Senior Staff Writer

SGA President-elect Scott Cros-
bie found some difficulty getting the
SGA Senate to approve the appoint-
ments he made to the SGA Execu-
tive Branch at Wednesday night‘s
senate meeting.

The appointments were selected
from a list of students who submit-
ted applications and interviewed be—
fore a committee composed of mem-
bers of other student organizations,
some SGA senators and SGA Vice
President-elect Keith Sparks, Cros-
bie said.

Crosbie said the selection process

submit applications and the presi-
dent made appointments and that
was it," he said. “They were rubber
stamped and passed by the senate."

On Wednesday night, Crosbie
said he expected his list to be rubber
stamped by the senate without any
hassles.

Senator at Large Allen Putman
made a motion that each of the pres-
idential appointments be considered
separately, which was seconded and
then passed by the senate.

Sparks later made an effort to
convince the senate to vote on the
entire list at once, but the senate de-
manded that each appointment be
reviewed separately.

In a meeting that lasted about
three hours, the senate discussed
each appointment Crosbie put be-
fore them.

Most of the controversy stemmed
from Crosbie's appointments of his
campaign manager Anna Howell to
executive director of student affairs
and Steve Olshewsky as SGA finan-
cial consultant.

Many senators questioned the two
positions. Senator at Large Rob El-
henicky wanted to know about the

ls UK’s Athletics AssoCiation a
self~supporting, affiliated corpora-
tion of the University — as adminis-
tration officials have long contended
— or a separate entity susceptible to
lawsuits?

That question, long debated in a
three-year court case involving the
UKAA and a former L'nivcrsity of
Tennessee track star, moved closer
to being answered this week.

On Wednesday. the U.S. Court of
Appeals for the 6th Circuit dis-
missed a UK appeal “at this time"
from the trial court, ruling that the
UKAA was not entitled to llth
Amendment immunity.

The 6th Circuit (‘otirt said LTK
could not file an appeal tn the mid—
die of a lawsuit. said Paul Van
Boovcn, UK associate legal counsel.
The case is expected to go to trial in
Lexington no sooner than this fall.

CM. Newton. L'K’s Athletics Di-
rector, said early this month that the
only differences between the L'KAA
and any other LlUXlllilr} l nivcrsity
organizations are that it has to be
self-supporting anti it doesn‘t rc-
ccive state money.

Scott Hartman. a former ['T track
star, was seriously injured almost
four years ago at a L'K track meet.

Dr. Emery A. Wilson, dean of the
UK College of Medicine, said he
knew the magazine was conducting
a survey but did not know UK was
being considered. The college found
it was one of the toplO two days
ago.

Wilson said being included in
such a survey will have a positive
influence on the college.

“l hope it gives our students and

potential students confidence to be-

This is the first time U.S. News &

vey of this type.

The national news magazine usu‘
ally conducts an annual survey of
graduate schools, but this year the
magazine established a sub-
category for medical schools. Wil-
son is not sure whether US. News
will be repeating the this particular
survey in the future.

He said the College of Medicine
has always tried to provide its stu-
dents with a good background in
primary care —— that's been pan of
their mission all along. The college

also provides education in tertiary
care, the spc‘Ciali/cd programs of-
fered in the college.

He did admit, however, that the
college had gotten away front the
primary-care objective for a few
years, and about three years ago he-
gan to get back on track.

He believes a big boost to the pn-
mary-carc emphasis is the establish
ment of the Rural Health Care Cen-

specializes in family practicc.

In the spirit of Woody Guthrie,
Pete Seeger and Bob Dylan, folk
singer Michael Johnathon has
emerged in the forefront of 1990s
folk music.

His music has a style of its own
with an approach to humanistic is-
sues that is fresh and new.

Johnathon’s nationally released
album Dreams Of Fire. on global
Pacific Records, is laced with his
trademark crystal-clear vocals ac-
companied by a pleasing melody
and rhythm all perfectly combined
to deliver a message. The album has
been played on UK's WRFL-FM
and is scheduled to be played on
WKQQ-FM.

Recently, I was lucky enough to
be invited by Johnathon to attend a
rehearsal session with his band. Joh-

nathon is a very personable man.
When i arrived at the rehearsal hall
he said. “Come on in and park it
over there." 1 did just that, and what
a great experience it was.

His band is guitarist Dan lversen,
bass and cellist Mark Noderer,
drummer Chris Smith and key-
boardist Jeff Yurkowski.

Speaking about his musicians
Johnathon said, “They are very
good musicians who constantly re-
flect sincerity and commiunent to
their work."

This group of young musicians
represents the cutting edge of talent.

Their playing style is impressive.
Each member has an equally impor-
tant role in the technical construc-
tion of songs. Professional musi-
cianship and attitude is constantly
being reflected by the quality of
their sound.

Wasting no time, the band
launched into “Young And Alone.”
The song begins with a beautiful
acoustic lead and rhythm guitar in-
troduction that accents Johnathon‘s
powerful but soft vocals that always
carry a message.

“ ‘Young And Alone, ‘ " Johna-
thon said, “is about personal emo-
tions in the '.90s‘

It is a song about growing up the
hard way with all the trials and trib-
ulations of life taking their toll.

“Find an empty table at a small
café/Sippin' at your coffee like you
spend your day/Just a drop at a
time, 'til it goes away/And you
stumble through your problems as
you look around/Everybody's mak—
ing the exact same sound/Youth is a

 

This group of young musicians represents the
cutting edge of talent. Their playing style is im-
pressive. Professional musicianship and attitude
is constantly being reflected by the quality of

their sound.

treasure that is lost when found/
Wasted on the young and nowhere
bound..."

The next song the band per-
formed was “Walden: "lhe Ballad
Of Thoreau." in the tradition of the
ballad song, Johnathon’s poetic
songwriting talent takes this genre
to new heights as be effectively
conveys the essence of Thoreau's
writings to perfection.

“This is a very pretty song about
the spirit of simplicity. It is titled
‘Walden' and is our tribute to Hen-
ry David Thoreau," Johnathon said.

Johnathon‘s vocals and acoustic
guitar on “Walden” are enhanced by
the beautiful sounds of cellist Mark
Noderer with the rest of the band
providing perfect melody and
rhythm. The combined effort of
lohnathon’s lyrics blended with the
professional musicianship of his
band make for an absolutely won-
derful and emotionally moving ex‘
perience as the song is performed.

The last song they played was
“Techno-Folk." Nationally released
on video, “TechnoFolk” is the de-
finitive American anthem that really
grabs your attention.

The song echoes a lamenting cry
of disbelief as Johnathon takes us
through time from the Viemam war
to Star Wars.

It is a very poignant and humanis-

tic commentary that causes you to
realistically reflect upon current na-
tional and world situations affecting
us all.

The beginning lead of “Techno-
Folk" is performed by Johnathon on
an autographed Pete Seeger long-
neck banjo. Johnathon’s banjo play-
ing is an integral component of the
song and is a major contribution to
its overall tone. Banjo applications
in today's music are rare, but Johna—
thon‘s use of the instrument here
proves that is has not been lost to
obscurity. Strong percussion, bass
and keyboard sections of “Techno-
Folk" drive the band to high energy
levels as lversen‘s searing lead gui-
tar breaks provide perfect accents.

The song’s title implies technolo-
gy meshed with the traditional
sounds of folk music. It is precisely
that: the genre of folk music com-
bined and delivered by the musical
technology of the 1990s.

This is a fresh approach to folk
music which is desperately needed
and well—received.

Available space limits this re-
view. This is due to the wide scope
of current social and humanistic is-
sues that Michael lohnathon’s mu-
sic addresses. 1 am confident that
the best reviews will come from the
response of his audiences. Listen to
the album. and you also will agree.

Letter to Class Of ’91 . . . A 30-year journey to the left

 

By Thomas E. Temptln

hirty years ago, with a head
Tfull of unexarnined assump-

tions about myself and this
country, I graduated from college. I
did not know it then, but I was
about to begin a long journey of po-
litical discovery and personal re-
education.

At the center of that journey has
been a continuing encounter with
what I have come to think of as the
hardest, deepest problem of Ameri-
can culture and politics: the prob-
lem of American conservatism.

What I have to say about this
problem reflects the experience of
one small life. But it has seemed to
me worth saying, for it is concerned
with large and important truths that,
in one way or another, affect the life
of every American.

At the risk of being presumptu-
ous, I would say that these are
truths that the majority of people in
the United States do not know, do
not accept as true, have not thought
much about or do not want to think
about If that is so, they have have a
lot in common with me as I was 30
years ago.

At that time, as a young man
about to graduate from college, I
was myself a person of mostly con-
servative political views. In 1960,
voting for the first time in a presi-
dential election, I cast my ballot fro
Richard M. Nixon, not John F. Ken-
nedy.

But, like many young Americans
of that period, I would soon be
swept irresistibly onto more liberal
political ground. During the next
few years, the powerful moral ap-
peal of the civil rights movement
pulled me steadily leftward across
the political spectrum.

Yet. as that happened, I was dis-
appointed in myself. For I knew that
I had been too slow in arriving at a
position of complete, wholehearted
suppon for the civil rights revolu-

 

tion. Eventually I came to under
stand that this was due in large part
to a failure of empathy. I had failed
to identify my own humanity, or
identify it sufficiently, with that of
other Americans, really different
from me, who were being oppressed
and wronged. l have been too slow
to put myself in their shoes, to try to
see the world as they saw it.

This experience helped me to rec-
ognize that empathy was a quality
that Americans, living in a highly
diverse nation, had particular need
of. And, as events unfolded over the
succeeding years, I saw that the
United States was suffering from an
empathy deficit that was in many
respects more serious, more appall-
ing in its implications, than were the
nation's budget deficits.

This sad truth struck home most
forcefully during the astonishing
years of Ronald Reagan’s presiden-
cy. I looked on in amazement as the
American people cheered and re-
elected this man who kept talking
about the nation’s “goodness” even
as his domestic policies inflicted
pain on millions of its most vulnera-
ble and disadvantaged citizens.

This experience pushed me far-
ther left politically. It also turned
my thoughts increasingly toward
the very different social policies
that I had seen at work, many years
earlier, on the other side of the At-
lantic.

In the mid-'60s, the US Army
had sent me to Europe. There I saw
a number of nations that were, like
the United States, democratic, capi-
talistic and prosperous. But these
nations had more generous and
comprehensive social policies and
programs.

They had extensive networks of
supports and services in such area
as housing, health care and income
maintenance. Their social policies
reflected, and were founded on, the
idea that a nation should assume a
large degree of responsibility for the
well—being of its whole population.

‘May. June, July and August

This idea, and the measures that
flowed from it, impressed me favor-
ably from a moral standpoint. I

could also see that such measures,

were among the reasons why these
nations had less social friction,
more livable cities and lower crime
rate than the United States.

I began to realize then what I
have increasingly realized since,
that this country has paid a heavy
price for not following social poli-
cies closer to the West European
model. Of course, efforts have been
made to move the United States
more in that direction. But these
have generally been defeated, usual-
ly after conservatives branded them
as “left wing" and “socialist."

Among the proposed measures
that American conservatives have
successfully resisted is national
health insurance. Many citizens of
this country have reason not to be
happy about this, and I am one of
them.

Unlike tens of millions of other
Americans, I am fortunate in that I

ism and capitalism.

do have health insurance. But, be-
cause of my health situation, I am
now paying thousands of dollars
more per year for it than would oth-
erwisebethecase—andlamat
greater risk of ending up without
health insurance. I am under grow-
ing financial pressure, and might
conceivably face financial ruin
someday because of my health stat-
us.

It kind of makes me sad and an-
gry when I think about the fact that
this kind of problem is particularly
associated with the United States.
Virtually every other economically
advanced country has some form of
national health insurance or health
service. The people of these coun-

tries have embraced the humane,
compassionate principle that illness
itself is enough of a burden, one
that should not be increased by fi-
nancial woes or worries.

The United States, under the in-
fluence of conservative ideas and
interests, has so far rejected this
principle. As a result, thousands of
Americans are driven into bankrupt-
cy each year by their medical ex-
penses.

This reality, along with others cit~
ed above, points to the hean of what
I have called the problem of Ameri-
can conservatism.

The essence of that problem, as I
would describe it, is failure to con-
front — or confront adequately, and
with appropriate action — the de-
structive effects of many long-
established American ideas and
practices.

The problem of American conser-
vatism includes our failure, as a
people, to do enough to moderate
the excesses of American individu-
alism and capitalism. It includes our

failure to cultivate the empathy we
need as a resource for social justice
in a highly pluralistic society. It in-
cludes our willingness to allow the
impersonal forces of the market-
place to dominate areas of our na-
tional life that rightly should be
shaped by a vision of the common
social good.

The problem of American conser-
vatism is vast, complex, pervasive,
and difficult. It is a problem so
rooted in American culture that it
cannot reasonably be regarded as
solvable in any ultimate sense. Yet
it is a problem against which —- our
history shows —« great and reward-
ing inroads can be made, important
social advances achieved, if the cir-
cumstances are right and the sup-
pon of the American people can be
won.

responsibilities each position would
entail. Crosbie said he was unsure,
because he has not had time to de-
tail the positions.

College of Ans & Sciences Sena-
tor Jay Ingle challenged the consti-
tutionality of the student affairs po-
sition.

”There shall be two Executive
Departments, Student Services and
Academic Affairs " according to
the constitution. Ingle said.

Gosbie appointed two executive
directors — student affairs and spe-
cial concerns. But Ingle said special
concerns is not defined in the con-
stitution.

aCrosbie said he had combined the
positions of academic affairs and
student services into one committee

— student affairs — in an attempt
to streamline the executive Iranch.

Sonata at Large Jason Vandiver
said for at least four years there
have been three executive branch
departments in operation, including
special concerns.

“There are a lot of things in the
constitution that need to be updated
in the fall." but for now, they should
be overlooked, he said.

Following withdrawal of a mo-
tion by Putman to table the appoint-
ment until fall, the senate voted to
override the constitution and ap-
prove Howell as executive director
of special concerns.
