lllBW hike policy
carries “Elly llllfl

By Gary Wuli
Assistant New: Editor

A year after the ineffective dis-
mount zone, UK officials are giv-
in cyclists a choice: park your
biEe or pay the price.

Fines of $25 will be issued to
any person riding on edestrian
walkways or sidewal s. Bikes
parked anywhere but the 14 clus—
ters of bike racks will be immobi—
lized or impounded, in addition to
being ticketed.

“We are hoping we will get
people’s attention.“ said Joe
Burch, vice president for Univer-
sity Relations. “It’s not a revenue
generator. It costs us more than
we’ll ever generate in revenue.”

The new bike olicy will be in
effect 24 hours a a . Cyclists also
cannot ride inside University
buildings, inside parking struc-
tures or anywhere restricted by
signs. While on streets and roads,
cyclists will be confined to bike
lanes.

UK police will issue warnings
for the first week of classes to
those caught riding their bicycles
or rollerblading outside the bike
lanes. After warnings are issued,
police will begin to issue citations
to offenders.

Two years ago, a committee of
cyclists and non—cyclists, students,
faculty, and staff was formed to
look at what other colleges and
universities have done about the
increasing number of bikes on
campus. ’ .

“Everyone seemed to agree
that something needed to be
done," said Assistant Director for
public relations John Scharfen-
berger.

A dismount zone where cyclists
were asked to get off and walk
their bikes to their destination was
created last year.

Most cyclists chose to ignore
the zone instead of walking their
bikes to class. By the end of the
first week of school, most of the
signs identifying the dismount
zone had been stolen.

Two meetings were held to dis-
cuss the ineffective dismount zone
and formulate a new olicy. The
panel concluded that tlie only way
to et people to follow rules is to
en orce them.

The meetings resulted in the
bike lanes and paths and clustered
bicycle parkin .

The bike limes will surround

Rose Street and South Limestone.

Campus at Hilltop and Columbia
Avenues and through Funkhouser
Drive.

“Our greatest difficulty was
coming through the campus from
the com lex to (central) campus
without aving to go all the way
around to Washington Avenue
and down Limestone to back up
to the front gate,” Burch said.

Though riding bikes in
restricted areas is prohibited,
cyclists can walk their bike
through campus to one of the bike
parking areas. Bike racks are clus—
tered near bike routes around

campus.
“The first thing that occurred
to us was that we needed to move
the bicycle racks away from areas
where we don’t want students to
ride,” Burch said.
In order to accommodate bike
racks, approximately 25 to 30
arking spaces were turned into
liike parking. Unlike parking tick—
ets, students won’t be allowed let
bike tickets pile u throughout the
semester. If stu ents park their
bikes in a restricted area, they will
be immobilized until students pay
the fines.

Audit claims

McCoy stole
from council

By Bruce Mee

(.‘onn‘ihuting lVi‘im‘

An assistant dean ofstudents and financial adviser to UK's frater—
nities resigned last month when UK learned he had misappropriated
more than $1 1,000 from a fraternity bank account.

Jay T. McCoy, 35, of Lexington, supervised 25—30 agency
accounts for student organizations and served as financial adviser for
the Greek Activity Steering Committee and the Interfraternity
Council.

According to a University audit, McCoy wrote 30 checks to him-
self from the Interfraternity Council bank account between January
20, 1995 and May 5,1996, totaling $11,107.91.

Following discovery of the misappropriation, a management
review was ordered by James Kuder, vice chancellor for Student
Affairs.

According to that review, McCoy admitted forging the signatures
of the IFC president and the vice-president of internal relations,
which he needed to gain access to the account.

The Dean of Students Office first became aware of a problem
when PNC Batik, which held the IFC's account, notified the office
the account was overdrawn, the review stated.

Confronted by the aiidit’s findings, McCoy admitted to writing
several checks to himself. He was immediately placed on administra-
tive suspension, and on July 15, citing personal reasons, [McCoy
resigned.

In his resignation letter, McCoy said “personal concerns have
grown to the point where I must take time for myselfand my family
and consider a career change...”

According to the review, along with the $1 1 ,000 missing from the

i and paths . ‘ ‘ ‘ . .
i . Blke parklng - IF(. account, McCoy also received reimbursement from the Univer~
‘ areas .\ sity for expenses incurred during University-related trips and confer—

enccs.

The audit cited several instances when McCoy wrote checks to
himselfon the IFC account and then subsequently billed the Univer-
sity for his meals, lodging and airfare, constituting a double reim—
bursement.

During the search of McCoy's office following his resignation,
student affairs personnel uncovered l3 un-cashed checks totaling
$530, written by various fraternities and individual students to the
United Way. McCoy was responsible for turning all donations,
checks and cash, into the United Way.

McCoy would not comment on the investigation. Elisabeth
Zinser, chancellor of the Lexington campus, said UK has always
been strongly committed to the United Way and deeply regrets that
these contributions channeled through the campaign did not reach
the agency.

“The integrity of this institution is of the utmost concern to us
always,” Zinser said. “Stealing is totally unacceptable.”

Following completion of the audit, the Dean of Students turned
the matter over to the UK police for investigation and appropriate
action. '

“We're gettin close to the end of our investigation now,” said
UK Police Chie , W. H. McComas. “We've completed our local
interviews, but we still have to do at least one more out—of—state
interview before turning the case over to the commonwealth attor-
ney for prosecution."

McComas did not name a specific date for his office’s completion
of the investigation, but said it would most likely be “very soon.”

The review completed this month was critical of the Dean of Stu-
dents Office, stating “inadequate internal and management controls
exist in the Dean of Students Office, which allowed for unauthorized
and unrecognized control by a University employee over a student

- organization account comprised of non-university funds.”

UK spokesman Ralph Derickson, said the university is in the pro-
cess of examining what can be done to prevent this type ofincident.

“We accept the management review recommendations and are
proceeding to take action and examine other management improve-
ments to prevent this from happening again," Derickson said.

LexTran improving

tall routes, times

By Kathy Redinu

Axiom”! iN'eu'x Editor

In an effort to attract more stu—
dent riders, LexTran has expand—
ed its routes and schedules and is
introducing a student rate plan.

Beginning this fall, buses will
run to campus from Red Mile
Road and Virginia Avenue for the
first time. Students may purchase

bus passes for $15 per month and .

$50 per semester.

In addition, the bus schedule
has been set to Coincide with the
university class schedule.

LexTran spokeswoman Jenny
Williams said the company’s man-
agement worked over the summer
with the UK administration and
Student Government Association
to extend bus service.

“We hadn’t gotten a really
strong student response before,”
Williams said. “We wanted to
appeal to more students. There
was a lack of information. Stu-
dents didn’t know where the bus
was oing.”

SEe said the campus groups
helped LexTran determine where
large numbers of students live and
if current bus riders were students.

“We thought we had a good
number of student riders,”

\Villiams said. “We have not. It
was more employees.”

By expanding routes to include
Red Mile Road and Virginia
Avenue, LexTran hopes to pick up
the many students who live in
nearby student-dominated apart-
ment com lexes such as Royal
Lexigton, iThe Huntington and
University Commons.

Williams said since parking is
not always easy for students to
find, riding the bus is a depend-
able and more convenient alterna-
tive.

She said the student rate of $15
per month is halfthe re lar $30
monthly fee to ride Lex'Igi-iin. The
$50 per semester rate is available
only to students.

“There is no way a student can
pay for gas and parking for $50 a
semester,” Williams said. “Stu-
dents are on a major budges. We
realize that.”

To further aid students who are
riding from all areas, LexTran will
run on a half hour schedule from 6
a.m. to 9 am. and from 2:45 pm.
until 5 pm. During the rest of the
day, buses will run at l-hour
intervals.

“Once you know one time, you
know the whole schedule,”
Williams said. “We timed the

 

LexTran route map

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

schedule specifically for university
classes. Even if you miss your first
bus, you can still get to campus 10
minutes after the class starts.”

Other areas covered by Lex-
Tran service include Richmond,
Nicholasville, Harrodsburg and
New Circle Roads, Limestone
Street, and Broadway.

All of the routes intersect cam-
pus points. Williams said with its
routes, LexTran can also take stu—
dents to places other than class
and campus.

Wiliams said LexTran’s prob-
lem in the past was its failure to

RUSTY MMSE‘U Kenn! rid/f

get information to students. This
year, the bus service distributed
route and rate information at
summer advising conferences.

LexTran also held sign-ups for
the new passes this week at Uni-
versity Commons apartments.

New LexTran schedules are
available at the SGA office in the
Student Center.

For more information on pur-
chasing passes, students can call
LexTran at 25 3-4636.

A valid UK student ID is
required to obtain and use a stu-
dent pass.

0flioials say carbon monoxide detectors a must

By Lindsay Hendrix

Features Editor

When a Lexington family died
earlier this month from apparent
carbon monoxide poisoning,
shock was felt around the city.

Questions were raised about
how it happened, why they did not
leave the house and what was the

source of such a poisonous gas.

An unusual hazard because of
its colorless, odorless nature, car—
bon monoxide is extremely dan-
gerous because the symptoms are
often easily mistaken as something
else.

Experts recommend that peo—
ple buy carbon monoxide detec—
tors to prevent the fatal mistake.

“It is a worthwhile investment
to spend $30 for a carbon monox-
ide detector,” said Dominic
Giambri, assistant to the industrial
hygienist.

In addition, UK Fire Marshal
Garry Beach recommended that
people regularly check to make
sure their carbon monoxide and
fire detectors are working.

A few surprises can be found
when researching safety in campus
apartments, houses and residence
halls. For example, although peo-
ple generally need one carbon
monoxide detector, it is necessary
that they have multiple smoke
detectors.

“A minimum of four in a three-
bedroorn apartment," Beach said.
“You need to have a fire extin—
guisher —— it's common knowl-
edge.”

In order to avoid having to use
that fire extinguisher in the
kitchen, keep grease down and
never try to carry a burning skillet
outside. The fresh air will feed the
fire.

If you have a gas stove, Beach
advises getting a maintenance
check every year. This annual
check-up can alert you to any
obstructions in the gas line or
drafts that may cause the pilot
light to go out.

“Obviously make sure that you
don’t have any leaks," Beach said.

And make certain that the
flame is blue because this ensures
that you have the right combina-
tion of elements.

Gas stoves are not the only
worry when it comes to older
houses that have been converted
into apartments.

Students using computer labs
will have to spend cash on some—
thin I other than vending
macfiines this year when UK
begins charging for computer
printouts.

The computer labs contracted
with a private company, CDP of
Minneapolis, Minn., to provide
printing serwces.

The service will provide stu-
dents with 50 free sheets per
semester. When they run out of
free printouts, students will be
charged 10 cents per co y. Stu-
dents will not be charge for in-
class printing.

“It's their choice. People will
have to be more careful to make
the most out of their 50 pages,”
said Mary Molinaro, team leader
for electronic resources.

Several changes will be appar-

UK’s l7 microlabs this fall.

The microlabs’ Windows oper—
ating system has been upgraded to
\Vindows 95, providing the most
current operating system.

Mary Molinaro, team leader
for electronic resources, said
\Vindows 95 will provide greater
consistency for students who
switch between Macintosh and
and PC machines because the

operating systems are similar. It
will also improve Internet access.

“It’s a better way of accessing
network resources,” Molinaro
said.

To support Windows 95, older
computers have been replaced
with faster Pentium machines, and
extra memory has been added to
newer versions, ensuring that the
labs contain up-to-date hardware.

New students who do not yet
have an electronic mail address no
longer have to go to McVey Hall
to set up an account. Instead, they
can create their own account

anything they

In return for the profits, CDP

at http://www.uky.edu/userids.

Kathy Hamperian, senior man-
ager of desktop support, said the
new system will “make it a little
easier for students to use the tech—

Team hopes to bring ‘inclusive learning' to campus

By Kathy Reding

.‘ I trident News Editor

After a rise of racial tension to
the surface last spring, a rally to
“break the silence,” and student
suggestions to administrators, UK
has formed a team to make UK a
more “inclusive learning commu-
nity.”

Beginning in the spring and
working through the summer, a
group consisting of administra-
tive, student and faculty represen-
tatives has already im lemented
some ideas proposed ast spring
and has plans to consider addi-
tional faculty and curriculum
changes in its “working report.”

“VVe’re on the startin block
for some new things tSat are

' going) to happen this year," said

Elisa eth Zinser, chancellor of the
Lexington campus and member of
the new inclusive learning com—
muni team.

“ is is a real defining moment
for the university.”

The overall goal is to make UK
an “inclusive learning communi—
ty.” Their report defines the com-
munity as “the active engagement

> of students, faculty, staff and

alumni in the pursuit of learning
in an environment of equality,
civ1lity, academic freedom, securi-

~ ty and mutual respect for the

rights and responsibilities of all
members of the community. ”

An additional section on diver—
sity has been added to UK 101 to
increase new students’ exposure to

~ race. The Black Student Union
- has had its budget increased by

$5,000. The first annual African
American convocation will be held
this fall. In addition, a social jus-
tice forum will be held in Septem-

. ber, and new faculty and teaching

assistants will receive extra orien-

tation on diversity and familiar—
ized with a new teaching-learning
handbook.

The inclusive learning commu-
nity team is working on additional
responses to last spring‘s propos-
als to be implemented this year.
These responses include the
development of a racial harass-
