Plans to vote on changes to UK‘s University
Studies Program In the L'Iiiversity Senate will be
delayed until next semester. said Provost Kumble
Subbaswammy In an e-mail sent to college deans
Wednesday.

The postponement followed three faculty fo»
rums that took place last week regarding changes to
the USP program.

“We will be digesting all the input received to
the Steering Committee proposal. and will take the
necessary steps and time to revise the proposal ac~
cordingly." Subbaswamy said iii art mail to the
Kernel.

The initial plan was to discuss necessary
changes to the proposal at the Nov. l3 L'niversity
Senate meeting and vote on the final proposal in
December.

Subbasw‘amy did riot give a definite date for
when discussion or enactment of the new USPs
would take place. but did say that he e\pccts a re-
vised proposal to be presented in the Senate early
next semester.

“More important than a particular timeline is
ensuring that we ptit In place an outstanding gener—
al education program that has strong buy—in arid
support from the faculty." Subbaswamy said.

Many faculty members appreciated that the
USP program would be changing at last week‘s fo—
rums. but concerns were raised abotit scheduling.
faculty involvement and foreign language require-
merits. among other topics.

To address these concenis. Subbaswamy wrote
in the e—mail. the L'SP Steering (‘ommittee should
be given "more time than initially suggested" be»
fore the proposal reaches the University Senate.

“1 want. to emphasi/c that this is Iiot the
provost's decision." said ['niversity Senate Presi-
dent Kaveh 'lltgavi. ”He Is simply the Iiiessenger,

About five years ago. Sara Beth Ruble opened
her first copy of “Gone With the Wind." But one
copy wasn't enough. and since that first encounter
with Margaret Mitchell's novel. Ruble has collected
about five different copies of the classic tale.

She had no idea her hobby could actually be
profitable.

“I didn‘t even think about collecting old copies
of ‘Gone With the Wind‘ until I saw one at a flea
market." Ruble said. "It was only $5. but I hope
that it‘s worth a little bit more than that."

UK Rifle team riding on the accuracy and success of its two young guns

§y Rodrigo Mylo

sports@kykernel com

A team that goes undefeated in con»
ference play and finishes fourth in the na-

tion can create a buzz on arty college'

campus. Add coach and rookie of the
year honors and you might have a valid
reason for dancing in the streets.

A reaction of that magnitude is not
the ease for the UK Rifle team. As sharp
as they‘ve been shooting in recent years.
the team that made a major impact on the
national scene is flying below radar iii
Lexington.

After having one of their most suc-
cessful seasons in the history of the pro-
gram. they were voted by league coaches
as the preseason favorite to win the Great
American Rifle Conference title.

Head coach Harry Mullins speaks
highly of his young leaders. sophomores
Jennifer Pason and Tom Csenge.

“They have a lot of talent. and they
are both very gifted." Mullins said.
“They are very dedicated and have a
tremendous drive. I love the way they
work."

Pason and Csenge were two of the
top recruits of their class. Pason won
Rookie of the Year in their conference
and Csenge was the runner»up.

“It was all a learning experience for
me. I knew I was going to conic back
this year even stronger." Csenge said.

Pason said Csenge helps drive her to
do her best.

“Tom and I feed off of each other."
Pason said. “lt‘.. an unspoken friendly
competition.”

After last year‘s accomplishments.
the team seeks to raise the bar even
higher. ln a team meeting. they set their
goals of having an undefeated season
and a high team GPA. producing All-
Americans and breaking the school
record with each gun. To achieve these
goals. Csenge said. they just have to
work even harder.

“Already this season the team is off
to a good start behind the leadership of
the dynamic duo." Csenge said. "The ri-
fle team is on course to accomplishing at
least one of the goals this season."

The team is currently undefeated
with wins over Ohio State. Nebraska
and Alaska-Fairbanks. the reigning
back—to-back national champions.

Pason wants to keep the team moving
in the right direction and seeks to lead by
example. The R.O.Y. seeks to raise her
high scores of 585 and 593 in smalLbore
and air rifle. the categories for the two
guns used in competition.

The perfect score of con is a tall or-
der. but to her it‘s another shell in the
bucket — she has already set the high
score in practice.

To prepare for competition. the team
does range and physical training.
Through range training. the team tries to
