University faculty approves
post-tenure review proposal

 

By Lance Williams
News Editor

 

Eighteen months of debate over a
proposed post-tenure review for
Arts and Sciences faculty ended
Monday as the faculty approved the
new review 105-53.

This version of the Professional
Review for Tenured Faculty is a re-
vised version of a plan that was met
by opposition from not only faculty
in the College of Arts and Sciences
but also the campus American As-

UK forum
debates faith
and reason

 

By Perry Brothers
Stall Writer

 

Yesterday evening, four faculty
members sat on a panel created by
the Christian Student Fellowship to
query the compatibility of faith and
reason.

About 40 people attended the
symposium, “Is Christianity Intel-
lectually Defensible?," and for
nearly two hours the topic focused
upon the theoretical division be-
tween science and religion, evolu-
tion and creation.

Chemistry professor David Rob-
ertson offered insight to the collu-
sion of the two schools of thought.

“As a Christian and a scientist, I
want to reconcile faith and reason,“
Robertson said.

“As a scientist, I cannot prove to
you with the scientific method that
God exists," he said. “He who
comes to God must believe, but
someone who clings to evolution
must also have faith in spontaneous
generation.”

Robertson's statement launched a
series of debates in which audience
member Constantine Nenkov, a
physics graduate student from Bul-
garia, disputed the existence of God
outside the minds of believers.

Panelist Charles Carlson, a psy-
chology professor, responded to
Nenkov with a story of his grand-
mother’s miraculous recovery from
a comatose status.

This incident proves, Carlson
said, that “there is a God outside
our minds."

Unconvinced, Nenkov replied:
“But that is for you, not for me. Be-
cause in your mind you believe that
God was responsible. Maybe in 20
years, science will tell us why your
grandmother got better."

Following the discussion, Nen-
kov disclosed the basis of his argu-
ment: “Faith is a personal thing,
and there is no ultimate truth.”

Michael Wilkerson, a member of
the Christian Student Fellowship
who will begin classes at UK next
fall, said Nenkov's position is not
unusual. Because “we love him," he
added, “we are not afraid to disa-
gree with him."

sociation of University Professors.

Richard Edwards, dean of the
College of Arts and Sciences, said
several changes were made in the
plan to help sway faculty support.
First, Edwards said, the procedures
surrounding the plans were ex.
plained in more detail so the faculty
could understand the process better.
The proposal was revised five times
to make the process more accepta-
ble for the AAUP and the con-
cerned faculty.

In addition, the new policy has
been designed “to focus the reviews

on those faculty that will benefit the
most."

The new review will be made
available to faculty members who
want to receive feedback and pro-
fessional guidance from other mem-
bers of the faculty, Edwards said.

For example, an associate profes-
sor who is interested in being pro-
moted would be able see what need-
ed to be accomplished to get a
promotion.

In addition, the review would be
used if a faculty member‘s score on
his biennial evaluation falls below a

2.5 or lower for two successive re-
view periods.

The faculty member would then
undergo the review process to find
possible solutions to problems that
were identified in the biennial re-
views.

Edwards said the college would
“try as hard as we can do re-engage
faculty members" into the system in
the college. He said the review was
designed to provide positive rein-
forcement for the faculty.

Board allows
Gibler to stay

in SGA race

 

By Lance Williams
News Editor

Student Government Associa-
tion election officials will allow
presidential candidate Krista Gi-
bler to stay in the race despite
her admitting that she submitted
illegally obtained signatures on
her campaign petition.

The SGA Election
Board gave Gibler and
her running mate, Eric
Smith, a formal repri-
mand, but said the vio-
lation was only a misde-
meanor and should not
have a significant im-
pact on the outcome of
the April 20 and 21
elections. Gibler and
Smith also had to forfeit

to SGA, and their ticket
will appear last on the ballot.

Kelly Sears. Elections Board
of Claims chairwoman, said in
the published decision that Gi-
bler and Smith had gathered the
350 signatures needed to qualify
for running even after officials
threw out the sheet containing il-
legal signatures.

The illegal signatures were
gathered by political science and
Spanish junior Jeff Hemsath,
who had been asked by Smith to
help the ticket gather signatures
for a petition to place them on
the ballot.

Hemsath took the sheet to
work with him at the Margaret 1.
King Library MicroLab and sent
an electronic mail message to all
the computers in the lab asking
users to come to the front desk to
fill out a sign-in sheet.

Hemsath said he used part of a

 

 

 

their campaign deposit GIBLER

clipboard to obscure the petition
so MicroLab patrons would not
know what they were signing.

One student, howev-
er, found out about the
ploy and complained to
library management,
who investigated the in-
cident. Hemsath admit-
ted to the wrongdoing
and was fired from the
lab.

According to the de-
' cision, the candidates
claimed they were
“scrambling to get their
sheet in by the dead-
line" and decided to include the
sheet.

Gibler, however, told the Ken—
tucky Kernel earlier this month
that the illegal sheet had been
destroyed by Smith.

Neither Gibler nor Smith
could be reached last night to ex-
plain the apparent inconsistency
in her statements.

Mary Molinaro, director of
Microlabs, also said Hemsath
told her the sheet had been de-
stroyed.

The SGA Elections Board,
however, learned that Gibler and
Smith had turned in the sheet
even though they were aware the
signatures had been obtained il-
legally.

According to a statement re—
leased by Sears, Hemsath broke
the rules of the computing center
and also violated SGA bylaws.

pledged in her announcement
speech.

“We are determined to make stu-
dent govemment more meaningful

Stall report

 

The last time Urban County
Councilman Don Todd appeared at
UK, he attended a speech to the
College Republicans given by con-
servative state Sen. Tim Philpot.

Tonight at 7, Todd — a Demo-
crat who hopes to defeat Philpot in
upcoming Senate elections —— will
give his own crunpus speech to the
College Democrats.

Todd said yesterday that he will
sped: about questions curently fac-
ing legislators.

He also will explain why he be-

lieves he is more qualified than
PhilpottoserveinthesteteSenate.

Julie Wright, a member of Col-
lege Democrats, said her group in-

vited Todd to counter Philpot's
speaking appearance on campus
and offer an alternative viewpoint
“so (students) make the call on who
to vote for."

Scot T. Gillies, executive board
member of College Republicans,
said he was “surprised" and "flat-
tered that Julie Wright and the Col-
lege Democrats have decided to fol-
low our example by bringing a
Spring Speakers Series to campus.“

Next week, College Democrats
will sponsor a web by Kentucky
Secretary of State and gubernatorial
candidate Bob Babbage, Wright
said.

Tonight’s speech, which will be
held at 7 in 230 Student Center, is
free and open to the public.

 

They also hope to commercialize
the Student Center by seeking to
bring a florist, a bank, a video store

The team promises to get student
government out of the office and on
the campus by helping students

move into residence halls at the be-
ginning of the year and and visiting
each college during finals week to
“wish students good luck."

Weaver, an elementary education
senior, also mentioned the possibil-
ity of establishing a DUI preven-
tion program and a directory for
“easy access to African-American
faculty members."

Litkenhaus, a Russian and politi-
cal science senior. said she and
Weaver would “bring a new style
of leadership and a new style of pri-
orities to SGA."

She also said the ticket would
“be direct, tell the truth and be
theirselves" throughout the cam-

palgn.

We've got all the talent in the
world. Now we just need the con/'-

Tltose words sliced through the
frigid air at Shively Field yesterday,
spilling out of UK rightlielder Poo-

be common from an athlete, but

“That hurl." he said, referring to
the hit off the end of the bat in sub-
40 degree temperature. What hurt
even worse was an 86 loss at the
hands of the mighty Marshall Thun-
dering llerd. whom the Cats defeat-
ed 9-5 less than a week ago.

The confidence clearly was miss-
ing last night throughout the team.
Jones seems to have the spark in his
eye that screams of winning. On the
football field, he has led the Cats to
respectability anti a bowl bid.

“Pookie‘s improved a lot," UK

much more confident."

starting pitcher Greg Reid was stan-
ing to falter. The unwavering Madi-
son stuck with him.

End result: Reid's confidence
somewhat restored after an inning-
ending double play. Of course,
Madison only makes the strategic
moves. It's players like Jones and
his mates that have to perform.

On the baseball field, Jones is
close to becoming a hot property.
His thermometer staned at Florida-
like temperatures this year. Usually
his numbers are closer to Siberia
this early in the season. This year
figured to be no different, consider-
ing Jones missed the first month of
practice because of his football du-
ties in the Peach Bowl.

“I really wanted to start out on
fire," Jones said. “I‘m just going
out there and having fun."

is, and you can see it in his face.
Even after the disappointing loss,
Jones looked happier than a thor-
oughbred in an open meadow.

While on the field, Jones has dis-
played play that could land him in
professional baseball. He didn't get
a hit but collected two walks, and
(maybe more importantly) he didn't
Strikeout.

Jones was plagued last season
with strikeouts. His eye obviously
has improved.

“l’m being a lot more patient," he
said. “l'm trying to press on so i
can get over .300." Jones is hitting
.280 on the year.

“He can handle the breaking and
off-speed pitches," Madison said.

Jones concurred and even relish-
es the situation. “l’m hitting the
curveball a whole lot better than l
was before," he said. “Three or four
of my home runs have come off
curveballs. i actually like hitting it.“

And hit he has. Until this week,
Jones was leading the Southeastern
Conference in dingers with seven.

“I've heard rumors that SEC
pitching is about Class A pitching,"
Jones said. That only bodes well for
the Paducah, Ky., native. He al-
ready has experienced being select-
ed in the draft. Jones was the 18th
player taken by the Califomia An-
gels last year.

From Jones' reaction, the experi-
ence was as cold as the weather.

“It just wasn’t right," Jones said.
“My parents got caught up talking
about money with them. i just want
to go to a class organization."

Whatever organization takes
Jones will get a coachable, classy,
top notch guy. Jones gave it all he
had to win yesterday's game.

“I’m just glad people are interest-
ed in me.” Jones said with a smile
seen only on the face of a child on
Christmas morning.

People are interested in Pookie
Jones.

Be confident in that.

first baseman Paul Morse and sec-
ond baseman Mark Etter.

The Herd came thmdering back
in the top of the third, tallying three
runs, highlighted by a Ross single
and Craig Brumfield's two-RBI
double.

But the Cats weren't ready to sur-
render, turning the rnatchup into a
see-saw battle for much of the con-
test. ”lhey evened the score during
the bottom of the third when Morse
doubled, for his second hit on the
game, knocking home designated
hitter Mark Bragga, who reached
base after being hit by a pitch.

Neither team struck again until
the fifth, but still little was decided.
The Herd scored once and contin-
ued to capitalize on the heroics of
Ross, who smashed yet another hit
in a his five-for-five outing.

Perhaps taking a cue from their
basketball counterparts. the Cats
came back, knotting the game at
four apiece on a towering home run
by third baseman Chris Gonzalez.

Marshall took over from there.
The Herd offense was ignited by
Ross’ solo homerun in the seventh.

After Marshall’s fiery eighth, in
which Madison was forced to re-
move starting pitcher Greg Reid in
favor of Troy Trumbo, the Cats tal-
licd a pair of runs in the bottom of
the frame.

Bragga doubled and Morse
walked. Both runners were moved
up when Marshall reliever Steve
Diamond was called for a balk.
Leftfielder Andy McCord then hit a
two RBI single for the game’s final
margin.

Marshall pitcher Tony Whiteman
collected the win, while UK's Reid
fell to 5-1 to add to the Cats'
mound miseries this season.

“Our problem today has been our
major problem all year and that's
our pitching," Madison said of the
contest. “We have good arms. We

. just need to be more aggressive and
cut down on walks."

IRVING, Texas — Jimmy John-
son severed his tempestuous five-
year relationship with Jerry Jones
yesterday, leaving behind the Dal-
las Cowboys and a chance to win
an unprecedented third straight Su-
per Bowl.

“After our discussions, we have
mutually decided that I would no
longer be the head football coach
of the Dallas Cowboys,” Johnson
said, sitting to the right of Jones at
the Cowboys’ Valley Ranch head-
quarters after two days of meet-
ings.

"Personally, it was a time I
think I needed to pull back some,"
Johnson said. ’

“Anybody who knows me
knows I have to be 100 percent to-
tally focused or else I’m not going
to be as good.

“I felt like I was beginning to
lose that focus, and because of that
I’m no longer coach of the Dallas
Cowboys."

Jones said no replacement for
Johnson would be named today.

Johnson said he probably would
not coach anywhere this year, but
added: “Knowing my love for

football, I anticipate I would be
coaching again."

Fox, which last November
wrested the NFC contract away
from CBS, is interested in hiring
Johnson as an analyst.

“We cenainly wel-
come the opportunity
to discuss with Jimmy
Johnson the possibili-
ty of coming to Fox
Sports," said Fox
Sports president Da-
vid Hill.

“We would love to
have a two-time Su-

per Bowl winning
coach on our broad-
cast team."

NBC Sports presi-
dent Dick Ebersol
said the network
thinks “very highly of
Jimmy Johnson, but

  

._ Cowboy controversy ends as
Johnson takes a Super bow

“And I didn’t have to do it."

The owner said Johnson's depar-
ture was in the best interests of
everybody concerned.

“There are no negatives when
you look at it," Jones said before
thanking Johnson for
his service.

“Some have de-
scribed our relation-
ship as rocky," John-
son said, “but
something about our
relationship worked.
Something was very.
very good."

Their kind words
today aside, the feud
began almost as soon
as Jones bought the
team in 1989, fired
Tom Landry and
made Johnson his
coach.

 

all of our NFL an- s It boiled over last
nouncing positions week at the NFL
are taken.” JOHNSON meetings in Orlando,

There was an undis-
closed cash settlement from the
Cowboys for Johnson, who had
five years left on his contract at $1
million a year.

“I said ‘Jerry, you don‘t have to
do that,” Johnson said.

Jones then interrupted and said:

Fla. After a perceived
snub by Johnson, Jones suggested
in an early moming barroom con-
versation that he would fire his
coach and replace him with former
Oklahoma coach Barry Switzer.

Johnson, infuriated, left the
meetings the next morning.

Switzer is one of the possible
successors, along with Notre
Dame coach Lou Holtz and defen-
sive coordinator Butch Davis. Da-
vis has never been a head coach at
any level and has been with John-
son since his days at Oklahoma
State, but at this late date, he
would be the most likely successor
for reasons of continuity.

“This boiled down to a personal
thing between Jimmy and Jerry."
Davis said. “It was nothing about
football. it was nothing about man-
agement. This was personal."

Many of the differences have
stemmed from the desire of Jones,
Johnson's teammate at Arkansas
in the early l960s, to be known as
“a football guy.”

Jones said during the week be-
fore Dallas’ 30-13 win over Buffa-
loin January that he had the ability
to coach the team.

Then, he added fuel to the fued
by suggesting this week numerous
other coaches could take the Cow-
boys to the Super Bowl.

Johnson's departure may lead to
the defection of some players, in-
cluding linebacker Ken Norton,
fullback Daryl Johnston, receiver
Alvin Harper and offensive line-
man Nate Newton.

Cards need more bats in belfry

 

By FLB. Fallstrom
Associated Press

 

ST. LOUIS — Most of the time,
Bob Tewksbury hates the designat-
ed hitter. This season, he wishes
the National League would adopt
it.

The St. Louis Cardinals, long on
hitting and extremely short on
pitching, could use an extra bat.

“Put that other player out there
every day, sheesh, that’d be a lot of
fun,”said Tewksbury, a l7-game
winner last year.

Cardinals manager Joe Torre has

four starting-caliber outfielders,
three second basemen who’ve been
staners and no weak links in the
everyday lineup.

“From No. 1 through eight,
we’ve got guys who can flat-out
hit,” Gregg Jefferies said. “Our of-
fense is as good as anybody‘s in
baseball.”

Jefferies, the No. 3 hitter, batted
.342 last season and is expected to
contend for a batting title.

“I hit .360 one year, and he could
sure do that,” said Torre, who led
the NL with a .363 average in
1971. “They’re going to have to
pitch to him on this ballclub."

Jays face tough act

to follow:

Associated Press

 

 

DUNEDIN, Fla. — In the quiet
of the Grant Field clubhouse, with
the rest of the Toronto Blue Jays
off on a road trip and his day’s
work completed, Paul Molitor was
holding court.

After just one season with To-
ronto — a brilliant campaign that
far surpassed his previous best —
Molitor knows what it's like to be
a champion.

He knows, after 16 seasons with-
out a championship, that expecta-
tions for consistent winners are dif-
ferent than those for also-tans.

A team that‘s won two consecu-
tive World Series and four AL East
titles in five years has a lofty histo-
ry to live up to. And for those Blue
Jay fans to whom winning has be-
come the norm, the veteran has a
few words of caution.

“The expectation levels are unre-
alistic from the fans of the Blue
Jays," Molitor says. “I don't mean
that harshly. but this organization
has spoiled them with success.
That’s not to say we don’t hope to
fulfill those expectations, but
there’s almost a mentality that it’s
taken for granted. You definitely
sense that as a player.”

Seldom before has so much been

expected from a team with so many
questions. Trying to become the
first franchise to win three straight
World Series since the 1972-74
Oakland Athletics, the Blue Jays
enter 1994 with some unsettling
news for their rabid supporters.

“Yeah, there are questions,” man-
ager Cito Gaston said. "There’s
plenty of questions.”

That’s not to suggest this team is
average. Any club figures to con-
tend with Roberto Alomar, Devon
White, John Olemd, Joe Carter and
Molitor.

Batting in front of Jeffen'es is 39—
year-old shortstop Ozzie Smith,
who hit .288 last year and still plays
like a kid in the field. Behind him is
cleanup hitter Todd Zeile, who had
one of the best second halves in the
major leagues and had 103 RB's.

Catcher Torn Pagnozzi is out un-
til May after knee surgery. but
backup Erik Pappas hit .276 and
was at his best when Pagnoni hurt
the same knee last year. Pappas also
threw out 41 percent of would-be
basestealers.

The crowded outfield has Ray
Lankford, Mark Whiten, Bernard
Gilkey and Brian Jordan.

Whiten is the flashiest of the four
after a 25-homer, 99-RBI season.
Opposing players who'd heard of
Whiten's four-home run, lZ-RBI
game last Sept. 7 against Cincinna-
ti stopped playing catch to watch
Whiten in the batting cage this
spring, and he has one of the best
arms in the major leagues.

Gilkey hit .305 last season and
led the team in extra-base hits.
Lankford is moving back to the
leadoff spot, where he's had his
greatest success and has showed
signs this spring of rebounding
from a poor year. Jordan is the
least experienced of the bunch after
making the switch from the NFL.
