SG considering new student shuttle

Tl'ansportation: SG wants to model shuttle service
after programs at other schools, get LexTran involved

ByCrystaILIﬂIe

STAFF WRITER

Student Government is
considering starting a shuttle
service exclusively for stu-
dents, with a route that will
weave through the campus

community and take students
to popular Lexington busi-
nesses.

The plans for the shuttle
service are still in progress.
but 80 members are dis

vices from 9 pm. to 2 am.

every Thursday. Friday and
Saturday It will “go where
students go." including Wal-
Mart and Lexington movie
theaters. said Tim Robinson.
the SG President.

80 members hope to
have the proposal completed
by the end of the semester.

“We're still conducting
research. looking at national

models to base our program
on." Robinson said. “When
the proposal is completed.
hopefully by the end of the
semester. we will go before a
committee at LexTran and
pitch our idea."

Robinson said that Lex-
Tran hasn‘t been contacted
yet because the proposal is
still in progress. but that the

service won't be a duplication
of what LexTran offers now.
Currently. LexTran offers
free shuttle services to stu-
dents and UK employees dai-
ly. from 5:30 am. to 12:43 am.

80 has been researching
how the shuttle system works
at 15 universities of UK's size.
Robinson said. He said the

80 is trying to work out a
plan in which the services

costs will be covered by the

Isaac begins making
transition to office

KATIE MCDONALD | KERNEL Sim

Balancing mayoral and teaching responsibilities, Mayor-elect Teresa
Isaac makes the final exam for her government class at me.

Plans: Isaac formed team to help hire mayoral staff

By Sm Cullingham
surrwnnrn ——

With less than a month before she becomes Lexington's
mayor. Teresa Isaac is making sure she has people appointed to
take office with her. choosing those who relate well to the entire
communitv and to UK.

“We need to have good people in the right places.“ Isaac
said. “We are looking for good managers that are creative and
open to new ideas."

Isaac. who takes ofﬁce Jan. I. began by forming her transi—
tion team. a group of 11 people who are all leaders of different
parts of the community. They are aiding Isaac in hiring com»
missioners and other mayoral staff.

“We are trying to match those interested with the jobs that
are there." said Ann Render. a member of the transition team
and local attorney who has experience in govermnent adminis-
tration transitions.

Though not everyone who is interested will have a paid po
sition. Isaac said her administration. like her campaign. will be
run with the help of volunteers. Younger people who helped
with the campaign brought ideas and energy. Isaac said.

“I would love to continue with that energy in the next four
years," Isaac said.

Isaac has met with the current mayor. Pam Miller. to dis
cuss unﬁnished projects that she could continue to work on
and key staff members who might stay on with the new ad-
ministration. It has been a smooth transition so far. Isaac said.

"I genuinely appreciate all of the work she's [Miller] done."
Isaac said. “She has given a lot to this city."

Isaac said her administration will work toward forming a
stronger. more positive bond between UK and the rest of the
Lexington communities.

After meeting with community groups and associations.
Isaac said their main concerns deal with the growth of UK and
how students will ﬁt into the community aromid the campus.

“We need to work to get them to see students as good neigh-
bors and get the students to see that you can still party and be

Virginia fraternities cleared in blackface incident

Protected by First Amendment: Pictures from fraternities’ party showed students
dressed as Uncle Sam, Venus and Serena Williams. wearing black and brown facepaint

ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTESVILLE.
Va. —- Two University of
Virginia fraternities were
cleared by a student panel
of disorderly conduct accu—
sations stemming from a
Halloween party at which
guests were photographed
in blackface.

The panel. convened by
the university‘s Inter-Fra-
ternity Council. deter-
mined Monday that Kappa
Alpha and Zeta Psi could
not be punished because
the partygoers‘ actions
were constitutionally pro~
tected speech.

But the panel also con-
demned those at the party

for “an apparent historical
blindness and lack of sen-
sitivity."

lt recommended that
both houses conduct educa-
tional and internal discie
pline programs for
members.

The photos. which had
circulated for several
weeks on the Internet.
showed at least three cos-
tumed students with their
faces painted black or
brown at a party co-hosted
by the two fraternities.

One man was dressed
as Uncle Sam and two oth-
ers were dressed as tennis
champions Venus and Sere-
na Williams.

Matty students decried
the costumes as racist and
offensive throwbacks to the
days of minstrel shows.

But others wrote let-
ters to the student newspa-
per defending the costumes
as innocent fun and criti-
cizing the backlash as po.
litical correctness.

The national organiza-
tions of both fraternities
sanctioned their U.Va.
chapters after college offi-
cials discovered the photos
Nov. 18.

Kappa Alpha lifted its
suspension of its chapter
after two days. when lead-
ers determined that none
of its members were in-

volved in the incident.

Zeta Psi remains on
probation pending a disci-
plinary hearing with the
national organization.

National leaders for
both Kappa Alpha and Zeta
Psi said they would follow
the Inter-Fraternity Coun-
cil‘s recommendation for
diversity education within
the fraternities.

“This is a new one for
us. but we‘re going to make
sure that message gets de-
livered very clearly." said
George McNeillie.
spokesman for Zeta Psi.

He said that the chap-
ter had run a full-page
apology ad in the campus
newspaper and that mem-
bers had distributed ﬂiers
at a recent football game
denouncing the practice of

wearing blackface.

Although many stu-
dents called on the univer
sity administration to take
action against the fraterni-
ties. campus officials said
any investigation or sane
tions would be handled as
part of a policy of student
self-government.

At the University of
Tennessee. Kappa Sigma‘s
national organization sus
pended that campus' chap-
ter after six white fraterni-
ty members were seen
wearing blackface on their
way to an off‘campus party
Oct. 22.

The university admin-
istration denounced the in»
cident. but said it would
not penalize the students
because it was constitu—
tionally protected speech.

“This is a new
one for us. but
we‘re going to
make sure that
message gets
delivered very
clearly"

— George McNeillie.
spokesman for Zeta Psi
fraternity, on following

the Inter-Fraternity

Council's recommendation
for diversity education.

Artist joins
int with art

New creations: Darryl Davis turns dryer lint into works of art

By Sarah Zopti

5cm: ronoe W

It all started when he noticed
the colored lint in the dryer after do-
ing his laundry.

"1 would notice the vibrant col-
or and fabrics of my particular lint
and decided to use it as a
medium for my artwork."
said Darryl Davis, a local
artist. “People thought i
was crazy at first. but
then they really liked
what I (lid with the lint.“

Davis came up with
the idea to use lint as a
medium for his art after
years of painting and do-
ing oil pastel sketches. He
said he likes to create in-
ventive ways of using me—
dia in his work and lint
provides an interesting
outlet.

"1 love to create new
ideas through my art and
lint allows me to carry
out those ideas.“ Davis
said.

Through personal
tragedy. Davis finds the
will and desire to create his art.

“My mother and I were very
close. and her death inspired me to
place my piece. ‘Buffalo Soldiers in
Spanish Style Hats‘ in the Lucille
Little Library because of all the in.
fluence she had there." said Davis.
Davis‘ mother worked in the library
for several years.

Inspiration for Davis‘ pieces
also comes from his love of fellow
black artists. including Ellis Wilson
and Jacob Lawrence. Davis said
their works helped him become
more aware of the impact black
artists had on art through the cen-
turies.

“Ellis Wilson was born in May»

his inspiration from farm animals
he would paint using different
shades of purple." Davis said.
Davis' work will be displayed in
the Lexington Arts and Cultural
(‘ouncil Exhibit at Arts Place be-
tween ;3 and 7 pm. on Dec. 17. He

will be showing a few of

his lint art pieces as well
as some of his oil pastels.

a jury of art instructors to
display my art for Stu»

Arturo Alonzo San»
doval. a UK art professor.
feels Davis" work is un-
usual.

“He does unusual art
for a time when technolo-
gy seems to be the future
because Darryl recycles
stuff from around the
house like lint." Sandoval
said.

Erin McBride, a psy—
chology junior. said she
would find Davis' art in-
teresting.

“I would go to the exhibit to
learn more about art." McBride
said,

Not only does Davis attempt to
use unique mediums for his
artwork. he also tries to open minds
of students and the community

“i want students and the corn-
munity to get involved and see my
art because
it gives peo»
ple an open-
in i n d e d
view of ex-
pression."
Davis said.

Darryl Davis’ art will be

showcased along with

Cynthia Kelly's at Arts

My career aspirations indeed may.
lend me to a life of putting my fat head...
on the chopping block. Weekly this ser
mester. I have done this. often embark; .
ing to campus with a perpetual ﬂinch. .,

But the truth is, I have enjoyed it,
not necessarily for the chance to show“.
off a certain talent. but for the partici-...
pation in the "marketplace of ideas?"
I have enjoyed some personal accolades ,
for my efforts (thanks to Brian in the,
College of Pharmacy for his phone.
call). but whereas 1 am often embark,
rassed by compliments. I have endured the most enjoy.-:
ment from opposition to my ideas.

It is wonderful that a few of you were passionate
enough to take the time to write the editor. And better, it
reminds me of the liberty in which we indulge _, the free-.'..
dom of back and forth banter. ,

So in keeping with that heated spirit. I thought a re-ﬂ‘
sponse to the critical letters that were published would
bode well. I commend all of you for your courage and
your passion.

In a scalding. sarcastic response to “Nation must
unite to meet Sept. 11 goals." Nick Anderson wrote. “Jay
son Miller is correct We must blindly support President »
Bush. keep our opinions to ourselves. and trust the ‘high-
er power' that ordained our leader into ofﬁce." .

Nick. you taught me a valuable lesson about concise--
ness coupled with support. Be careful though about.
putting words in someone's mouth. I never said any of,
that. The point I was trying to make (if done poorly) was~ .
that if we were to go to war with Iraq. then we needed to -
be uniﬁed in the effort. not divided. This is the classic “we.
must hang together or else we will hang
separately" idea. ' v

I would never espouse that people keep their opinionSw
to themselves. In fact. I said it was your right to express.
them. even if I criticized the opinions themselves. As for “
the ordaining of a higher power. I actually said “some be“
lieve“ this and merely that the idea gave me pause.

In response to “About time to appreciate Mr. Nice:
Guy.“ Uma Periyanayagam asked “how are we supposed-
to distinguish [Mr Nice Guy] from the player working his,
mojo'?“ Here’s a hint: if he’s staring at your chest, $105111
ing his beer. wearing a hemp choker necklace and a wifei'
beater. it ain‘t Mr. Nice Guy. Uma also asked. “can your
handle a reasonably attractive. intelligent female who is-
knowledgeable. likes sports and speaks her mind?" My alt--
swer: Boy. could I. If this woman exists. send her over tti‘
Mr. Nice Guy once you ﬁgure out which one he is. ‘ ‘

Kyle Vogel. you were my favorite. Published Nov. 4 in‘
regard to “Forget a Map. Just Follow Your Instincts." you.
suggested that while my "logic may sound good on paper,
it falls apart in the face of reality." And that I should “be'
true to [myself]. but not if it involves denial of reality“
Did my parents put you up to this? Though it is true that
I live in a dream world. the introduction in that piece did;
explore the concept that reality is not a universal man?“
date. Reality at best is relative. This is illustrated well by:
any two visions of the same event. including our differing ‘
opinion on reality itself. * j‘

I was quite impressed with your attempt to refute my
assessment of the message of King Solomon in the Book
of Ecclesiastes. However. your argument is the classic '
(and somewhat uninformed) view of the writing. There is
a large camp of biblical scholars who argue that verses 13‘,
and 14 of Chapter 12 were not actually written by
Solomon. Instead. they were tacked on by the Maseretig »
Council (the group that put together this part of the
Bible) because the council was uncomfortable with hov'i" ‘
Solomon left it. So I‘m sticking to my guns when I say that;
King Solomon‘s assessment of life is that it is short
and meaningless. ~

KERNEL COLUMNISI

IN OUR OPINION

UK-leased apartments
should be near campus

or other common areas are nearby. Plus. much
can be learned about compromise and courtesy
through sharing a room and showering in a
community bathroom. Also. living in the middle
of campus provides other advantages for fresh-
men. As they adapt to the academic side of col
lege they are aided by the proximity of their
classes. professors and tutorial services.

Second. U K should try to ﬁnd a complex or. if
necessary. complexes closer to campus. A big
reason students wish to live in residence halls is
because of the convenience they provide. The
University Commons. located at 845 Red Mile
Road. is 1.5 miles from the heart of the UK cam-
pus. This makes it difﬁcult to walk to class. foot-
ball games. concerts at the Singletary Center or
the William T. Young Library.

For now. leasing independent apartments
might be the best solution to UK‘s housing woes.
If UK carries out this plan it should take these
suggestions into accordance. Here‘s hoping UK‘s
plan to increase housing scheduled to be re-
leased in January calls for the immediat
