STAFF leTER

On any given day. students
and faculty bike all over campus.
They make it from class to class
in record time. all without break-
ing a sweat. Yet they face many
problems with their transporta-
tion choice.

The biggest problem seems
to be a lack of bike lanes to and
on campus.

“There needs to be more bike
lanes through main campus."
said Chris Jetty. an economics se-
nior and biker. “Either I have to
go all the way around and ride on
Limestone with no sidewalks. or
ride all the way down to Euclid."

Andreas Lehner. a research
scientist in the department of vet-
erinary science, agreed with
Jetty, saying that bike lanes are
inadequate.

“There are too few bona tide
bike lanes in this town,“ he said.
“And on ones that exist. I‘m
amused by signs stating ‘bike
lane ends.‘ Are those for the cy-
clists or the drivers?"

UK limited the bicycle lanes
through campus about six years
ago. said Sgt. Joe Monroe. of the
UK police.

“A lot of people were getting
hit by (bikers) going too fast on
main campus." he said. “So we
had bikes banned due to a high
accident rate with pedestrians
Since then. our bike/ pedestrian
crashes have dropped."

Many ways to correct the
problem were suggested. ranging
from adding lanes across campus
to limiting pedestrian sidewalks.

“It would be a great idea to
put a main bike lane all around
main campus." said Monroe. “We
could always use more bike-dedi-
cated lanes on campus."

Bike lanes also need to be
added to roads coming into cam-
pus. said faculty members.

“We obviously need bike
lanes on access streets where fea—
sible —— for example. University
Drive. Virginia Avenue. Red
Mile Road and Martin Luther
King.“ said Bill Fortune. 3 law
professor.

“Possibly striping Euclid and
Aylesford to lead bikers around
the Euclid/Rose intersection
would help."

Lehner agreed.

“The trafllc around Alumni
is very intense. as it is other
places during rush hour. and I've

resorted to looking for larger
breaks between cars to cross.
rather than absolutely safe condi‘
tions."

Monroe said that cars misus-
ing bike lanes is a problem also.

“A lot of people use (bike
lanes) as turning lanes. so they
might need to be marked better."
he said.

Jetty said pedestrians pre-
sent the main problem on cam-
pus. "People don‘t ever look for
bikes. As far as attention goes on
Rose Street. there is none."

Registering your one

Registering bikes is not mandatory
but advised by the UK police.
interested cyclists should go to the

UK Police Department, located at
the corner of Euclid Avenue and
Rose Street. where an officer
records the bicycle's serial number.
model number. brand name and the
owner's information. The informa-
tion helps recover bicycles if they
are stolen. For more information
call the UK Police Department at

tion.

A forum Wednesday allowed UK and Lexington com-
munities to hear and express opinions on last week‘s ter-
rorist attacks. .

Panelists agreed that a possible preventative measure
against future attacks is education. Stuart Kaufman, an as-
sociate professor of political science. said Americans need
to become more knowledgeable about various Asian and
world cultures, religions and politics. Kaufman also said
that absent from the panel was a “Middle Eastern expert."
because there simply aren't enough at UK.

Michael Desch, associate director of UK‘s Patterson
School of Diplomacy and International Commerce. agreed
with Kaufman. “Our knowledge about the rest of the world
is embarrassingly thin.” Desch said. “We've got to learn
more about the worl

Russell Graves. a professor in UK’s College of Archi-

. tecture andretired US. Army general. said thoughts of do

mestic security against attacks had been in the. abstract
until last Tuesday. Graves said the United States “will not
acquiesce to those fears" the perpetrators hoped to impart.

Members of the panel also addressed the American
economy.

“Financial. insurance and equities markets are very
capable of looking after themselves," said David Wildasin.
a professor in UK’s Martin School of Public Policy and Ad-
ministration. Wildasin also told students to “be involved in
the collective decision making process" America will face
in its efl‘orts to eradicate terrorism.

Wildasin said the US. government may have to use
some money earmarked for other causes in its war on ter-
rorism. “There are complicated. trade-offs about the use of
limited resources. but we can afl‘ord some increases in de-
fense spending."

The panel also addressed the emotions caused by last
Tuesday's events.

Sarah Goodrum. of UK’s Department of Behavioral
Sciences. told the audience the American public needs to
aid in the healing process for victims.

“Victims may have difficulty finding social support be-
cause support may be needed for an extended period of
time and they may wear out their support circles."
Goodrum said.

APOLOGIES:
German composer
Karlheinz
Stockhausen
apologized for
calling last
week's attacks on
the United States
a “work of art,"
words that
prompted the
canceletion of
four concerts in
this northern
City. The 73-year-
old Stockhausen,
one of Germany‘s
best-known
postwar
composers, had
described the
attacks as "the
greatest work of
art one can
imagine." Organ-
izers of a music
festival in
Hamburg
promptly
canceled four
concerts of
Stockhausen's
music. “If anyone
feels hurt by
what i said at the
press conference,
1 ask their
forgiveness,
because I have
never felt or
thought what was
read into my
words," he said,
according to
Weiss. Stock-
hausen gained
fame through his
avant-garde
works in the
19605 and 705.
He later moved
to huge music
theater and other
projects, some
involvmg military
equipment, that
have been less
popular.

Airlines laying off workers nationwide

DALLAS The parent of American Airlines
said Wednesday it would lay off at least 20.000
employees as it deals with declining air traffic
since last week's terrorist attacks. The cuts will
be spread across American. Trans World Air»
lines and the American Eagle commuter line.
AMR Corp. said. American and American Eagle
have approximately 100.000 employees and Trans
World another 20.000 American, the world‘s
largest carrier. had already said it would join
other carriers in cutting its flight schedule by 20
percent. The nation's aviation industry has been
reeling since terrorists hijacked four airliners
Sept. 11. AMR is the latest major carrier to an-
nounce layoffs. US Airways is laying off 11.000
employees and Continental 12.000 workers.
America West. America Trans Air. National Air-
lines and Virgin Atlantic have all announce cuts.
Midway Airlines shut down. Analysts have said
there could be 100.000 layoffs as the industry
deals with a slower economy as well as fewer
passengers and security costs related to the at
tacks.

Advanced aircraft fly to Persian 6qu
WASHINGTON The Pentagon ordered

dozens of advanced aircraft to the Persian Gulf

region on Wednesday as the hour of military re-
taliation for deadly terrorist attacks drew closer.
President Bush beckoned all countries to con
tribute some openly. sortie secretly to “the
long campaign” against terrorism. The combat
aircraft. probably F15 and F710 fighters and pos
sibly B-l bombers. will be preceded by air traffic
control teams. a defense official said in the first
public disclosure of a buildup dubbed “Operation
Infinite Justice.” There was no immediate word
from the Pentagon on how many aircraft had
been ordered deployed. or when they would
move. The official who provided the information
spoke on condition ofaiionyiiiity.

Priest opposes combat school

By Mark Boxley

SIAFI IRIIIR

Father Roy Bourgeois, a Vietnam veteran.
recipient of the Purple Heart and vehement
voice opposing the School of the Americas, will
be speaking in and around Lexington through
Saturday. Bourgeois will address his battle
with the SOA.

SOA, once a part of Fort Beniiiiig. Ga. was
a military school training Latin Americans.
While SOA no longer officially exists. Bour~
geois is just as opposed to its replacement. the
Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Co-
operation.

In an article written for the Atlanta Consti~
tution in January. Bourgeois attacked the
WHISC. “The new institute is no different from
the SOA it replaces." Bourgeois said. "It is a
combat school. Infaiitryiiien and women from
Latin America come to learn to fight.“

Dave Newton. a UK history and political
science senior. said he sees a similar picture of
the WHISC. 'It's scary stuff." Newton said.
“They train your classic evil dictator types.“

Bourgeois is the co-founder of an organiza-
tion called the School of the Americas Watch.
SOAW organizes protests and has the ultimate
goal of shutting down the SOA. the WHISC‘ and
any organization like them. according to the or-
ganization‘s Web site.

Newton said that about 60 bike riders from
around the city attended the event last year and
he expects the same amount this year. Newton
said the event attracts a wide age spectrum.

“We had Boy Scouts come last year." he
said.

When talking about safety for the cyclists,
Newton said that the riders would be escorted
by several UK Police bike officers as they tra-
verse the campus.

Newton said this is Critical Mass's fourth

Also. information attributed to Kelly Behre
in the final two paragraphs of the story should
have been attributed to Ball.

A statistic also incorrectly reported the num-
ber of women 18 or older who are raped each
minute. The number is 1.3 per minute.

In the United States. 13 women are raped
every minute. This results in T8 rapes each hour.
1.872 rapes each day. 56.1160 rapes each month
and 683.280 rapes each year.
