I'Iditor-in-cliief

A philosophically based
discussion on the missions of the
universities of Kentucky and
Louisville occupied much of
yesterday‘s meeting of the Council
on Public Higher Education.

Harry Snyder. (.‘PHE executive
director. presented the first draft of
a report on roles for specific state
institutions to a special meeting of

the council. It “describes the need
for and the benefits of developing a
system in which each institution
would assume a specific role."

The report names UK as the
t'ommonwcaltli‘s only statewide
institution; the University of
louisville was named the state‘s
only urban university.

“I‘m tiredof being cast off against
the l'niversity of Louisville." [TK
President ()tis Singletary said. “We

need to make a distinction between
the two institutions.“ ~
Singletary said he wanted the
council to clarify the use of the word
urban in describing [7 of L. “The
definition of urban institution has
serious implications for the
l'nivcrsity of Kentucky."
I Singletary said he did not agree
that the University of Louisville is
the state‘s only urban university.

One tickee, no car

PSD to tow after one violatiOn

By JENNIFER GREEK
Kernel Sta ff Writer

Here‘s news for all you
“delinquent" people with unpaid
parking citations. If you‘re waiting
to get a third ticket (that’s when
'they tow your car away) before
paying any of them. you’ll want to
know about the Public Safety
Division’s change of heart.

“We haven't been towing until
after the third delinquent citation is
recorded,“ said Tom Padgett,
director of public safety. “However,
students aren’t taking the tickets
seriously; so, as soon as we can,
we‘ll start towing with just one."

Not every time, he added. but
violators should be aware of the
possibility.

«.392 citations

in February, there were 6,392
citations issued (at a fine of $5 each)
and Padgett said that number was
an all-time high. Most were for
parking without a permit, in a

restricted area, and in
yellow lines.

“We recognize that this many
citations indicate a parking
problem," Padgett said. identifying
it not as a lack of spaces but as
people‘s dissatisfaction with the
location of the spaces. .

Unlike most other schools, be said,
UK dfers free parking tin the
stadium). Preferred spaces are
reserved for faculty, who pay an
annual parking fee. The remaining
spaces are available to students with
registered parking stickers.

New lots near stadium

He said the only new parking lots
to be added will be in the vicinity of
the stadium.

“We can‘t pave every inch of the
campus and there is no way to
relocate the stadium right in the
middleof UK," Padgett maintained.

“Maybe we could get, at the most,
250 additional spaces near the new
Fine Arts building, but would that
solve anything?"

Since Ml the UK Health Service
has employed a voluntary health
fee. It was the first school in the
country to incorporate such a
program.

“We‘re an autonomous business
providing a unique service," said
Jean (fox, health service ad-
ministrator. “We didn‘t want to
force it down anyone's throat, so
each year we advertise what we
have available for the students and
allow them to chose."

About (5 per cent of the student

health service lundled 57,000 visits
from noon students. Cox said.

More than runny noses and sore
throats receive attention. ”Students

like diabetes and serious kidney
diseases,“ Cox said. Gynecology,
weight control through behavior
modification and mental health
counseling services are also
provided.

"Young adults are accident prone

Padgett said another alternative
would be multi-level parking. “But
it's just not economically feasible
when it costs about $4,000 per space
to construct.“

Padgett said he believes it's up to
both students and faculty to change
their transportation habits by riding
the bus or getting accustomed to
parking in the stadium and then
taking the free intra-campus bus or
walking.

already guessed, is that you'll have

car towed away.

Before. as now, if you don't pay
within to days. you‘re listed as
delinquent. The penalties for being
delinquent. as described by Jerry
Lagere, associate registrar for
student records, are as follows: —

it might help to know where the $5

“People think we're making a
killing off those tickets," Padgett
said. ”We‘re not. In the first place,
the money doesn’t come back here;
it goes into UK's General Fund
which allocates a budget for every
different department within the

Secondly, Padgett said, it wouldn‘t

tenance of the lots.

He said the amount of fines has not
increased because after the fine was
raised to $5 a ticket, the number of

“However, if violations continue
to occur at the rate they have for the
past few months, there's bound to be
an increase in revenue."

becomes more apparent as
resources become more scarce and
instruction becomes more

The report cited “costly com-
petitiveness and unnecessary
duplica tion“ as reasons for ordering
program offerings.

Miller said he did not understand,
however, why either institution
would have to cut back doctoral
programs. lie said that states of
comparable size to Kentucky have
far more doctoral offerings.

“We need to make the point that
some duplication is necessary,"
Miller said. “There are many
situations where. duplications might
not only be desireable but essen-
tial.“

lzeyond the differences voiced by
the presidents from UK and U of L,
the council also discussed the need
for quality education in the state.
The report stated that the quality of
programs is an important factor in
determing the scope of programs

Several council members cm-
phasixed that the quality of

In other action, the council ap-
proved tuition increases for seven of
the eight higher education in-
stitution in the state.

L'K‘s tuition for in-state un-
dergraduate students was increased
from $240 a semester to $275. The
non-resident undergraduate rate
was increased from $605 a semester
to $750.

In adddition, students entering
graduate schoolat UK next year will
pay $310 a semester as compared to
the $265 fee now assessed. Out-of-
state tuition for graduate school will
increase from $630a semster to $800.

'l‘uition to attend law school for in-
state residents will increase from
$240 a semester to $350. N on-resident
tuition for law school will take a $270
jump from $605 a semester to $875.

The council‘s action also included
an increase for residents in Den-
tistry and Medicine. Annual tuition
w ill increase from $910 a semester to
H.200. hon-residents will have to
pay $2,500 a year as compared to the
current $1.805 fee.

The council also voted to transmit
a draft Executive Order to the
governor that would expand the
power of the council. If approved,
the council would have the power to
define and approve all higher
education certificate, associate,
baccalaurate, graduate and
professional degree programs in
state-supported higher education
institutions.

An Official Registry of Degree
Programs for all public institutions
was also approved by the council
ycsterday. Degree programs at any

On tuition,
the senates
and fighting

bureaucracy

Editorial tidbits...

No one‘s too happy about it, but tuition for all
UK students—graduate and undergraduate—is
increasing anyway. State residents will pay
about 14 per cent more next fall, and out-of-state
students are in for an even greater rise.

The increase is nothing to shrug off; in fact,
it’s probably enough to put some students out of
schoola nd into the fastest-growing occupation in
America— unemployment. Even with the in-
crease, however, UK still ranks among the best a
providing lowcost education that isn’t cheap.

The tuition hike was inevitable. It hadn’t been
raised for four years, a remarkable record in
times of inflation. The increase was also
precipitated by state govemment’s shift in
priorities aimed at pulling secondary education
in the state up to par.

The Student Senate is making amends for the
lack of particpation among its members
representing academic colleges.

Only eight of those 25 senators attended a
University Senate meeting last week. The ab-
sence of student input left the Senate open to pass
a measure that shortened the time a student is
allowed to withdraw from a class.

At its meeting Tuesday night, the Student
Senate voted to circulate petitions protesting the
University Senate’s action. The College of A & S

pushed the procedure in an effort to ease filing
demands wrought by an abundance of students
dropping courses at the last minute.

Deans and administrators also supported the
early withdraw deadline in order to allow
students to enter- classes with restricted
enrollments. If students dropped classes earlier,

they reasoned. then other students on waiting-

lists could enter the class earlier in the semester.
These are valid concerns but helping a smaller

number of students at the expense of a larger

number doesn’t produce a constructive change.

If the student senators put some hustle into their

petition drive, they‘ll easily find enough students

who don‘t like the new procedure. ’
Perhaps it could then be reversed.

Little people fighting big government is
classically represented by the community-
minded residents of several rural Kentucky
areas who have journeyed to Washington in
protest of four planned public works projects in
their areas.

The Kentucky delegation appeared Tuesday
before House subcommittee members to lobby
against construction of reservoirs at Paintsville,
Yatesville, Taylorsville and Tygarts Creek.
According to a report in the Louisville Courier-
Journal, the opponents face overwhelming odds
in their battle with the bureaucracy.

The Tygarts Creek project, however, may be

 

 

halted. It is not currently budgeted though it may
still be funded, depending on the outcome of a
lawsuit. The Yatesville project is under
Presidential review and its funding may be with-
drawn.

The Taylorsville project is well underway
despite opposition from environmentalists and
area residents. The Paintsville project had been
on President Carter’s list for review but was
removed without explanation.

Carter was criticized for his review of several
projects and apparently he has bowed to
pressure from industry. The projects are being
pushed by the Army Corps of Engineers, that
wonderful group of sophisticated analysts who
wanted to transform the scenic, historic and,
gasp, undeveloped Red River Gorge into a pile of
concrete. ‘

The Corps is in business to build things.
Therefore it often proposes projects without
adequately proving need through a ratio of costs
and benefits. This certainly was the case with the
gorge project, which was defeated only after an
intensive, broad-based lobby.

The Corps’ cost-benefit analysis for the
Paintsville project is highly questionable
because, among other reasons, it doesn’t fairly
consider the loss of coal reserves the dam would
cause. In view of the Corps’ past record,
proposed projects should be carefully
scrutinized before they are approved.

 

Conflict, not justice,

Listen and work together

By ROBERT SCHAAD

Susan Brownmiller spoke to a
capacity crowd last Thursday night
in the Student Center Ballroom. Ms.
Brownmiller spoke about her book,
Against Our Will: Men. Women and
Rape.

She said that one of her main

objectives was to document the E
existence of rape, to give ita history.
In her book, she does an outstanding
job of establishing the widespread ’

 

commentary

 

use of rape as a means of terror
from ancient times through the
Vietnam War.

Ms. Brownmiller does much more
than this. however. She examines.
and documents. the legal history of
rape. As she says. it is impossible to
examine the history of rape law
without examining marriage law,
the two are inseparable.

This brings into scrutiny the
embarrassing «for men) and
outrageous (to women) fact that.
throughout most of the history of
westem civilization, women were
considered to be the property of
their fathers and husbands. Rape
was not an assault against a person,
it was an attack on the property of
the husband or father.

Ms. Brownmiller continued her
remarks about rape with some
recommendations and some ob-
servations. These recommendations
and observations provoke further
discussion.

Ms. Brownmiller indicated that
she is not opposed to the death
penalty for murder. and recom-
mended sentences of six months to
20‘years for first degree rape. Ms.
Brownmiller might want to share
thoughts about criminal justice and
corrections with another excellent
author, Jessica Mitford, who wrote
Kind and l‘sual Punishment: The
Prison Business.

In her book. Ms. Mitford argues
that this country‘s excessively harsh
tAmerican prison sentences are
ammg the 'longest in the world)
punishments do little but brutalize
the mostly poor and often black
inmates, am serve only to make
rehabilitation impossible.

Ms. Brownmiller might also want
to give a H't'ontl cxa urination to tho

 

recommends control of por-
nography. prostitution.

criminal justice solution that she
proposed for two problems which
she 'teels brutalize the relations
between men and women—
prostitution and pornography.
Agreed. her feeling that the
customer should be just as liable to
criminal punishment as the
prostitute is only fair play.

But illegal prostitution only
supports corrupt police vice squads
and mganized crime, and it makes
the prostitute more dependent on
her lawyer or pimp, and thus
vulnerable to his exploitation. It
would seem that sexual activity
between consenting adults, in
private, should be legal. regardless
of the gender of the participants or
the financial arrangements between
them.

Ms. Brownmiller is correct that
pornography is disgusting. The
sexual exploitation of children in
pornography is outrageous, and may
encourage child moltesting. But it
seems that staging of these
photographs violates current child
abuse laws, and the distribution of
such material provides pictorial
evidence and a strong case for
convicting the distributors of con-
spiracy to commit unlawful sexual
acts with childdren. There is no need
for a pornography law to do this.

As for other pornography,
“beaver shots“ and Ilustler
ma gazine. l for one would rather not
have censorship of my reading
material. I find llustler ob-
jectionable. not only for its attitude
toward women, but because of its
attitude toward blacks. tOne car-
toon in llustler depicted a black
jn-rson being shot, and this seemed

to provide the humor.)

But Larry Flynt and his tasteless
ideas are only tasteless, not
dangerous. In a free marketplace of
ideas it will be recognized for that.
I’m really not sure that I would
agree with Ms. Brownmiller about
what pictures of the human body are
erotic and what are offensive.

And I know that I would not agree
with the US. attorney in Memphis
who told Morley Safer on 60 Minutes
that the book Joy of Sex by Alex
Comfort looks pornographic. That
book may be a little silly in places,
but it's not pornography. No, I’d
rather not advance the truth or
improve society by banning books.

Ms. Bmwnmiller‘s observations
were more profound than her
specific recommendations, but at
first seem a bit.paradoxical. She
says that rape is a crime of violence,
not of lust or passion, and she also
says that all men use the threat of
rape to subjugate all women, that
rape is the model for traditional
relationships between the sexes in
our society.

By allowing rape, by encouraging
women to be afraid and unable to
walk the streets alone, and en-
couraging them to have a man for
“protection,” men are indeed guilty
as clmrged. But, just as women
cannot afford to let men run society,
they cannot afford to let this guilt
keep men out of the dialogue about
reshaping the patterns of human
relations in our society.

There is a real danger of this
happening, as evidence by the ex
change bethen Ms. Brownmiller
and a man in the audience who was,

according to her, insisting on being
publicly exempted from this guilt.
”Why does a young man like you
always come to meetings like this
and insist that we acknowledge that
not all men are the enemy?"

I hope that the women‘s

movementwill be as tolerant of men
like this when we “make a nu'sance
of ourselves" as the blacks were of
her and other whites at civil rights
meetings. Unless we are all willing
to listen to each other and work
together. our attempts to make a
better society will end in conflict
instead of justice.

his interview. He was 30 minutes
late because his car ran out of gas.
llis fingernails were dirty from
playing with his dog. He forgot to
brush his teeth that morning. He ate
a salami sub with green peppers and
onions an hour before the interview.

The interviewer, Mr. Stone, looked
out his window and said, “Why'd you

That night Sally and Frank had

to bed.

They usually went to bed early.

"I can't get a job in DC, Sally.
You know how the competition is
there. You forget that my 2.6

hugged him.

Two months later. Sally moved to

work for a small bank. He kept the
dog, the car, the stereo and their
