Shortage: After fighting largest housing shortage ever,
housing director says to apply early for campus housing

By Dustin Anglos

CONTRIBUTlNG WRITER

After correcting the
largest housing shortage ever
this semester. UK is taking
measures to prevent future
housing crunches.

To avoid a waiting list for
a third consecutive year. UK
Housing plans to maintain its
lease with University Coin
mons and is looking into leas-
ing even more apartments at
the complex, said Ben Crutch~
er. associate vice president of
auxiliary sen/ices.

This semester. the largest

freshmen enrollment ever led
to a housing shortage. forcing
UK to lease 72 apartments at
University Commons. double
up roommates at Greg Page
Apartments and force resi-
dent advisers to share what
are normally single rooms.

Even after those efforts.
120 students were still with-
out rooms when school began
Aug. 28.

Crutcher said his depart
ment will be working more
closely with Don Witt. the reg-
istrar. to better predict fresh-
man enrollment numbers.

Also. he said UK hopes to
better communicate with stu-

dents who apply for housing.

"We are going to try to do
a better job of letting students
know where they are on the
waiting list throughout the
summer." Crutcher said.

This semester. the wait-
ing list problem was solved
when more than 100 students
who were assigned housing
turned out to be no-shows.
Crutcher said. Within two
weeks. the overcrowding at
Greg Page was relieved and
resident advisers had their
single rooms back.

Still. Crutcher said it may
have been late September by
the time the waiting list was
exhausted.

Myke Brake. a computer
science freshman. was one of

 

the students on the waiting
list. He waited three weeks
before Housing assigned him
a room in Kirwan l.

"About the time i was just
getting settled. everyone else
had had three weeks to ad
just." Brake said.

For three weeks. Brake
drove the htiur-aiida-half dri»
ve to his home in Florence
morning and night. ()ccas
sionally. he spent the night in
a room with friends on
campus.

Not all students waited
like Brake to be placed in a
dorm. Matt Coriiett. an unde-
clared f‘reshiiian. decided to
share an apartment with his
sister when UK Housing in»

Student group urges
Robinson preservation

Money: Scholarship
needs funds; trustee
proposes strip mining

By Steve Ivey
STAFF WRITER

Andi Bush. who has tu-
ition- paid for with the
Robinson Trust scholars
program, is stuck between
protecting the environment
and accepting the scholar-
ship that allows her to at-
tend UK.

For Bush. an unde-
clared freshman from East.
ern Kentucky, to keep re-
ceiving the money land
may have to be opened up
for mining.

“Normally I’m big on
the environment." said
Bush. “But if I didn't have
this scholarship, I may not
be able to go to UK."

In 1923, E0. Robinson
donated land in parts of
Breathitt. Knott and Perry
counties, now called Robin-
son Forest, to UK. The
scholarship program be-
gan in 1997. funded by rev-
enue generated by the for-
est. But Jack Blanton, se-
nior vice president for ad-
ministration, said the pro-
gram will have financial
problems by 2005 and could
go bankrupt by 2010.

To generate new rev-
enue and continue funding
the scholarship. the possi-
bility of using the land for
strip mining should be
studied. suggests UK
trustee Grady Stumbo.

Stumbo said no deci-
sion has been made by UK
President Lee Todd or the
Board of Trustees to mine
the land. He said he wanted
to find out how much coal
is in the area and it would
be at least a year before
they took any action.

Stumbo said the land
they’re investigating is a
250acre track of land out-
side the main watershed
area of Robinson Forest.

“There's nothing more
important than making
sure students in (Eastern
Kentucky) get educated.”
he said. “I don‘t know any.
one that wants to mine in-
side the main forest area.
But this is a good trade-
OE"

But some groups on
campus are against open-
ing up the land for strip
mining.

and Heather Clark, both
forestry seniors, set up a

day to inform students
about Robinson Forest.
“It‘s one of the last
undisturbed natural areas
in Kentucky.“ Robinson
said. “We’re trying to con-

vince students they need to
save Robinson Forest. “

UK’s forestry program use
the forest for a two-month
project between their ju-
nior and senior years.

Clark said students in

“We can't allow them

to desecrate this area," she
said.

"it was aggravating at
first because I kind of had my
hopes up. l wanted to meet
new people and tojust get the
dorm experience. at least
once." (‘oi'iiett said.

“One reason the waiting
list went down so quickly was
because students knew we
were maxed out and chose to
find housing elsewhere."
t‘rutcher said.

President Lee ’l‘odd wants
to raise the ix'rcentage of stu-
dents liviiig on campus from
25 to 30 percent. A plan is in
the works to add two million
square feet of dorm space
over the next decade rough-
ly 1.700 additional housing
spaces. The plan should be re-

leased by January.

As for spring semester.
new students should not
have the same trouble find
ing a room. judging by the
number of housing applica-
tions UK has received. said
Brenda Stamper. director of
housing.

“Traditionally. you have
some students who ate leav-
ing in the spring and a num-
ber of vacancies come open."
Stamper said.

Now. there are vacancies
both on campus and at Uni-
versity Commons.

To avoid being on the
waiting list next fall. Crutch-
er and Stamper offered one
simple piece of advice: apply
early

Bush says Homeland
doesn't ensure safety

ASSOCIAlED PRESS

President Bush signs the Homeland Security Act Monday in the East
Room at the White House. The Department of Homeland Security.
the newest Cabinet level department, will be composed of 22 exist-
ing agencies with combined budgets of about $40 billion and

employee 170,000 workers.

Security: Department will begin taking shape in March

ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON
dent Bush on Monday
named close friend Tom
Ridge to head the new De
partment of Homeland Secu-
rity. but said even the
biggest government shakes
up in more than a half cen-
tury can "neither predict
nor prevent every conceiv
able attack."

“We're doing everything
we can to protect America."
Bush said as he signed a bill
creating the department. “In
a free and open society. no
departiiiem of government
can completely guarantee
our safety against ruthless
killers who move and plot in
shadows.”

With that sobering as
sessineiit from an East Room
stage. Rush asked the Senate
to confirm his nomination of
Ridge and named two high
powered deputies: Navy Sec
retary (Bordon England and
Drug Enforcement Adminis-
tration chief Asa l-iutchin
SOT].

A large portion of the
department will take shape
March 1. when the Secret
Service. liiiinigration and
Naturalization Service and a
few other agencies transfer
their employees and budgets
to the new entity. The final

H months ago left his posi-
tion as Pennsylvania gover-
nor to serve in the White
House. No one else was seri-
ously considered for the job.
Bush aides said.

As the president’s home-
land security adviser. Ridge
has won praise for improv-
ing communication between
Washington and local gov
ernments. His most visible
creation the color-coded
national warning system
became an instant butt of
jokes but has helped Ameri

unsure what. if anything. to
do about the dangers.

Bush initially opposed
creation of a homeland secu
rity department. But. facing
criticism from Democrats.
he embraced the concept in
June and used it as a politi-
cal issue in the midterm
election campaign.

“The continuing threat
of terrorism. the threat of
mass murder on our own
soil. will be met with a uni-
fied. effective response."
Bush told an overflowing
White House crowd.

heinous incidents that occurred on Sept. 11.“

Worst year for budgets since WWII

WASHINGTON ~ State budgets are in
their worst shape since World War II.
prompting legislatures to institute the
largest tax increases in a decade, the Nation-
al Governors Association said Monday. Soar-
ing health care costs and a sputtering econo-
my that hurt tax collections were blamed for
the budget problems. State lawmakers re-
sponded with $8.3 billion in tax hikes for the
fiscal year that began for most states on July
1. That was the largest dollar increase since
1992. when $15 billion in tax hikes were en-
acted. the association reported. The report
found that 23 of 49 states raised taxes; Flori-
da did not participate in the survey. Ciga~
rettes and other tobacco products saw the
biggest tax hikes, $2.9 billion. followed by
sales taxes. $1.4 billion: corporate income
taxes. $1.2 billion; and personal income tax-
es. $1 billion. according to the report.

Largest identity-theft ring busted

NEW YORK Federal authorities broke
up what they called the biggest identity theft
case in US. history and charged three men
Monday with stealing credit information
from more than 30.000 people. draining vic~
tims' bank accounts and ruining their cred-
it. US Attorney James Comey said the loss
es were calculated so far at $2.7 million but
would balloon to many more millions and af-
fect consumers in every state. Authorities
said the scheme began about three years ago
when Philip Cummings. a help-desk worker
at Teledata Communications. a Long Island
software company. sold an unidentified per-
son passwords and codes for downloading
consumer credit reports. Cummings was al-
legedly paid roughly $30 for each report. and
the information was then passed on to at
least 20 other people. who set out to make
money from the stolen information. prosecu-
tors said.

Cats chase off Salukis,
win first game of season

Second half shutdown: Cats overcome haltime deficit
to win season opener for fifth straight year

By Terra Ramsdale

STAFF WRITER

The UK Women's basketball team won its fifth straight
season opener and started the regular season H) with a 79-53
win over the Southern Illinois Salukis last night.

The first half exposed two of the Cats‘ weaknesses: rev
bounding and shooting. The Salukis outrebounded UK 24-14
and outscored the Cats 34-30. shooting 40 percent to UK's 38.

The only thing working in UK's favor in the first half
was its defense. The Salukis turned the ball over eight times.
with the Cats tallying four steals and two blocks.

But that was only the beginning. UK came out with an
even stronger defense and a surprisingly explosive offense in
the second half.

Senior guard Rita Adams broke out in the beginning of the
second half with a drive to the basket for two points, and made
two quick free throws to tie the game at 34-34.

“Once that spark comes, everybody tags along." Adams
said. “It’s like a chain. everybody hops on and we‘re moving."

With Adams leading the train. the UK offense set into
motion and scored 49 points in the second half. Southern Illi~
nois was held to only 19 points. Four Cats scored in double
digits, with Adams leading the way at 16 points. Adams also
had four assists and four of UK’s steals in her 28 minutes on
the floor.

Junior forward Shambrica Jones put up 11 points and
three steals. center SeSe Helm held her own with 15 points
and forward Keiko Tate scored 10.

Sara Potts was perfect from the field in the first half, but
missed a few shots in the second half and ended up with 11
total points.

“When you’ve got three players on the floor that can han-
dle the ball, obviously teams can’t take you out of your of-
fense." said UK coach Bernadette Mattox.

“It makes your offense flow because everyone can get
into (the game)"

Although UK's defense took a back seat to its offense in
the second half, the Cats still found a way to force Southern
Illinois to turn the ball over 20 times. UK also had 13 total
steals and 22 defensive rebounds — a major boost from only
five defensive rebounds in the first half.

“We let our defense dictate our offense," Jones said.

The Cats held their composure throughout the game.
Mattox was pleased with the Cats’ effort. That effort ended
with a fifth straight season-opening win.

“Our heads are high." Adams said. “And we are going to
keep them high."

UK travels to Seattle Friday to play in the Seattle Times
Husky Classic. The Cats return to Memorial Coliseum Dec. 4
to face in-state rival Western Kentucky.

LCC should consider
capping enrollment

sno secret Lexington Community College
is overflowing with students and in need of ad-
ditional funding. But with Kentucky facing a
budget crunch and LCC competing with other
worthy institutions for funding, it’s unlikely it
will see a significant increase in funding soon.
Considering these factors, LCC officials should
consider placing a cap on enrollment.

It's possible for the college to do this and still
meet its mission. defined in fall 1998 as to offer
“access to quality education for our diverse and
growing community"

This fall. 8.290 students enrolled at LCC. Of
this group. only 1.921 are graduates of Fayette
County high schools. The students come from
116 Kentucky counties and 32 states. LCC could
continue to acctimmodate students from Fayette
County and the central Kentucky region and
still institute a cap on students frorn outside the
region and state. In fact. data suggest the cap
would allow LCC to better serve its target popu-
lation. Attendance has increased 36 percent at
LCC in the last five years. but its state funding
has decreased by 12 percent. Pitts. LCC budgets

only $3 679 per full— time student which is 47 per -
cent less than the average budget per rstudent of
LCC's benchmark institutions.

LCC President Jim Kerley said students flock
to the college because it‘s the sole community
college associated with UK in the state. Ken-
tucky’s 25 other community and technical col-
leges formed the Kentucky Community and
Technical College System in 1998. But UK ac-
cepts transfers from theseschools. too.

The cap could also relieve UK’s housing
woes. UK's 2002 freshman class numbering
3.064 , was the largest in history and bigger
than last year's by 19 percent. In an Aug. 28 arti-
cle. the Kernel reported that housing applica—
tions exceeded actual rooms by more than 600.
According to LCC‘s Web site. 476 of the college's
students live in UK residence halls. A decrease
in students from outside of central Kentucky
and the state would also decrease this number.

LCC certainly needs incre ised funding and
will need to increase its enrollment in the fu-
ture. But until funding is available. a cap could
alleviate some of LCC‘s and UK‘s problems.
