UK has received 7.l00tickets for the
Nov. 25 football game against
Tennessee in Knoxville. But deciding
who gets tickets and how many they
get is a tortuous job.

Students have been allotted l00
tickets. The UK band will receive
another 365. and the remainder have
been distributed. with a limit of two
per person. to the Board of Trustees.

'office. said requests from season ticket

holders for tickets to the Tennessee
game began coming in before the
season started. Since there were more
requests than there were tickets. a
drawing was held for season ticket
holders to see which chosen few would
be permitted to purchase a ticket.

A similar proceedure will be used
with students. The 100 tickets will be
distributed by lottery at 8 pm.
Sunday. Nov. l9. in the Student
Center Ballroom. Any student with a
validated student ID and activity card
may participate in the lottery.

The doors to the ballroom will open
at 7 p.m. Students must arrive by 8
pm. in order to take part in the lottery.

Any student who wins the lottery will
be permitted to purchase two tickets
for $10 each with presentation of valid
ID and activity cards. Morgan said the
reason students must pay SIO for their
tickets is because that is what
Tennessee charges for admission.

Some students may become upset
about the number oftickets allotted to
them. But Associate Dean of Students
T. Lynn Williamson. who is in charge
of student ticket distribution. said
students should be glad they have a
chance to go to the game.

“This is only the second time tickets .

for an away Tennessee game have been
available for students.“ Williamson
said. The first time was two years ago.

UK_— Tennessee tickets are in big demand;
the lucky student fans will be chosen Sunday

when the Student (‘enter Board
sponsored a bus to the game. Any
student who signed up to ride the bus
also got tickets.

Even though student tickets to the
Tennessee game are in great demand.
this has not always been the case with
the other games this season. Student
ticket distribution started to drop
around the Georgia game. Morgan
said. “Since UK was outscored 5l-0
(combined scores) by Penn State and
LSU. not that many students have
been coming to get tickets.“

In addition to this. Morgan said
students have not been attending the
away games like they did last year.

South of the border . . . you can study, too

By ervE MASSEY
Staff Writer

With the hazy days of fall slowly
fading intobleak winter. Mexico may
seem far away.

But memories aren’t easily
forgotten.

And for Cindy Schafer. Amy
Lerner, and Jennifer Smith — UK
students who spent last summer at
Monterrey Tech in Mexico —— the
coming winter is another subtle
reminder of the unique experiences
they shared south of the border.

“Every now and then. something
will come up that you can relate to
experiences you had in Mexico."
Cindy. a junior in Spanish. said.

These reminders may range from
implanted American commercial
institutions such as Kentucky Fried
Chicken and Coca-Cola to more
infamous recollections of dirty water
and goat‘s milk.

Yet. going to Mexico has changed
the way these students view not only
their lives. but the United States as
well.

Amy. an elementary education
sophomore. said. “I looked at
everything. and how rich we are here.
and sometimes I have to pinch myself
to see how lucky we are. You find out a
lot about this country that you didn‘t
know before . . . like they think that
everything here is fast-paced.“

Afternoon siestas in Mexico.
usually from l2 am. to 2 pm. are
commonplace. All the stores. cafes.
motels. virtually everything. really do
close down. Nap time prevails.

The adaptation that‘s needed for a
new culture and its mores. customs.

and manners impressed the girls.
Cindy said. “To be put in a completely
strange and different situation. is. to
me. most meaningful. You have to
adapt your lifestyle to theirs.“

The local Don Juans‘ treatment of
the girls also made a definite impact on
them.

“Up here. a girl practically has to fall
on her face before she is noticed: but
down there. guys went out of their way
to be nice." Amy said.

The Monterrey program covers a
six~week period starting June IX and
ending July 27. The cost for attending
the school. which is open to all majors.
is 5450 excluding transportation and
food. Acceptance is no problem.

One-way air transportation is $l50.
A less expensive mode is a group car
pool. with drivers alternating over the
l.500 miles. The cheapest traveling
method. if you're willing to do it. is by
bus. which costs $75 one way.

Classes are available in History.
Economics. Art. and Computer
Programming. All courses are
accredited and can be taught in either
English or Spanish. Knowledge of
Spanish is helpful. but not a
prerequisite.

Food costs. as well as substance. are
another matter. The womcns‘
expected expenses of $4 a day was
more than adequate. The amount was
partly because of lower prices and
partly because of tastes. Warning:
Mexicans like their food spicy. saucy.
and. God forbid. without ketchup.
Furthermore. everything comes with
beans.

Meals are consumed at a slower

rate. with each course served

separately. This supposedly adds a
dash of romanticism to the meal. but
the benefits to digestion can be easily
appreciated. Additional warning: be
careful of the water and milk.

The school also features various free

-—today

for an away game this year was for the
Ole Miss game." he said. “This could
be because many of the students live in
the western part of the state. where it
was only a 90~minute drive to the
game.”

Morgan‘s favorite type of ticket
distribution is the block seating
procedure. “Without the block seating
method a lot of students would be
unable to get tickets at all." Morgan
said. “Especially those students with
schedules that don‘t leave them any
time to wait in line. One guy brings the
lD‘s down. flicks them up and 40
people have ats.”

Morgan said that waiting in line can
be made enjoyable. “Students love to

21

make a party out of waiting for
tickets." Morgan said. “They bring
pizra. beer and cards and make a party
out of it.”

However. there has not been very
much partying at the ticket office this
week for the Florida game this
Saturday. because there are plenty of
tickets remaining. Students with a
validated ID and activity card may
pick up tickets today at the Memorial
Coliseum indoor ticket office between
9 am. and 3 pm.

Tickets are also being sold to the
general public at the same location and
time. Stadium seats are SIO and end
lone seats are $6.

’Mini-Mester, ’ formerly Free U,
regro ups with new programs

By MARY ANN BliCHART
Copy Editor

Free University is being reorganized
and will be offered next semester
under a new title. Mini-Mester.

“We changed the name because we
are trying to change the image that
Free U had." said Julie Bright.
chairman of Mini-Mester. “The name
Free U lead prospective students to
believe it is free."

Mini-Mester is a series of extra-
curricular. non-crcdit. low-cost.
special interest courses offered to
students. faculty and staff of tlie
University. '

“The name Mini-Mester was
suggested by someone on the
committee who had had a similar
program in high school.“ said Lynn
Higgins. a member of the committee.
“We thought it reinforced the idea that
these are not full semester classes and
it eliminates the free idea.“

Bright‘s goals for. Mini-Mester
include more classes. better support

from University administration. and .

more student involvement.
“We want to offer three times as
many courses as last year.“ Bright said.

Stops are made at bakeries. breweries.
and famous buildings.

An additional trip to Mexico City at
midterm costs $|35. including
everything but food. Although places

Approximately 45 classes will be
offered on topics ranging from art.
wine making and bartending to
community affairs.

“We want more students to get
involved in Mini-Mester.“ Bright said.
“The courses offered are for the
student‘s self-development and
enjoyment. and the price one pays is
quite nominal in comparison to what
he would be paying to take such a class
outside the University." she said

Mini-Mester will charge a nominal
fee for its mid-semester classes to cover
administrative fees and instructors‘
salaries. Because it is under the
organization and direction of the
Student Center Board. which is a non-
profit organization. Mini-Mester
doesn‘t make any money from the fee.

Bright said instructors will be paid
for teaching this year. probably
according to the number of students
enrolled in the program. She said she
hopes paying instructors will help
recruit interested teachers for the
program.

Bright also said she wants the
administrationto show support forthe
program by allowing Mini-Mester to
use various classroom buildings on

to cat are a little more expensive. the
additional costs are well worth it. And
if you can‘t take the Mexican food.
Kentucky’s Colonel is right around the
corner.

Interested students should contact

campus for classes. “Right now. we
can only use rooms in the Student
Center. These are not suitable for art
classes and the like.“she said. “Neither
the facilities nor materials are present
in the Student Center rooms."

The lack of suitable space also leads
to another problem. according to
Bright. Once a teacher is found. he or
she often quits ifthe proper setting can

_not be provided in order for them to

successfully teach their course.

Registration for Mini-Mester
courses will begin Jan. 29. I979. and
classes are scheduled to begin Feb. 12.
unless snow delays classes like last
year. Class schedules will be available
in the SCB office in the Student Center
when they are completed.

“We are planning to distribute the
schedules to the dorms. et cetera. and
maybe put an ad in the Kernel.“ Bright
said. “We hope to have the schedules
finished before Christmas.“

A lack of teachers is holding the
plans up now. according to Higgins.
who said anyone interested in teaching
with a background in a certain field
should fill out an application to teach
in the SCB office.

PRESIDENT CARTER SAID YESTERDAY “I
do mean business“ in sticking to the administration‘s
new anti-inflation program despite what he termed a
serious problem of rising complaints from special
interests.

Shrugging off suggestions that his get-tough
economic policies might cost him political support.
Carter said on the contrary that they not only are
“necessary for the country“ but will prove to bc“good
politics.“

At a breakfast meeting with reporters at the White
House. the president declared that the alternative to
his recent intensified efforts to curb inflation and
rescue the dollar might be “a recession or even a
depression."

DISAPPOINTED WITH THE SLOW PACE OF
NEGOTIATIONS. President Carter said yesterday it
may be necessary. “in a few cases.” to modify the
Camp David agreements in order to wrap up a peace
treaty between Egypt and Israel.

In a meeting with reporters. Carter said the two
sides did not trust each other and each was
interpreting the September agreements to its own best

the only woman of any nationality to make a space
flight.

Alexei Leonov. a former cosmonaut who heads the
Soviet Union's Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center.

training for space flights now.

POPE JOHN PAUL ll l'RGED NUNS yesterday
to look like nuns. always to wear their “simple and
apt” habits to demonstrate their religious status. He
warned them against being overwhelmed by “public
opinion. even an ecclesiastic one.“

Addressing about 600 mother superiors of religious
orders. the pope said nuns should not permit any
feminist claim to overshadow their call to a chaste.
poor and obedient life in the Roman Catholic Church.

The pontiff made a similar appeal to priests last
week. “Yes. my sisters. in the church you can show the
proper place of women." he said.

this is a G-rated newspaper. I‘m still
getting dumped on for a positive
statement I made about Thelma

little hasty. but I was excited.

What I'm referring to is John
Smiley, who I said ranked as one ofthe

he's neat, but 1 can‘t say I agree with
many of his statements. in a recent
advertisement in The Lexington

he never met before out of a sense of
justice and compassion. I guess the
link would be that people like Smiley
feel the sense of frustration and
impotence many people feel at
watching the communities and
societies they lived in declining and
“justice“ going wild.

The truely ironic thing is that it
takes a person like Smiley to step

community have turned their backs

never got a valentine when l was a little
newt in school, and here I am a student
and l‘m getting anonymous love letters
in my mailbox. And I didn‘t even write
them! _

- What l‘d like to discuss now is a lot

more serious. I‘m really disgusted with
this University. The University of
Kentucky is doing well to keep up its
image as a nice white college by doing
virtually nothing to create a more
diverse student body through
recruitment of minority students.

The College of Law has one black
student out of an entering freshman
class of 160. At present, there are no
written criteria for admission of
minorities, who have been historically
underrepresented in the legal
profession. Additional educational
programs exist on paper for culturally
disadvantaged individuals, yet in
reality, no such programs exist in any
real form. I am terriby confused about
a University that could spend -
thousands of dollars to create an
extension to the Law Building yet
spend so little time, effort and money
on the quality of education and the
environment within that structure.

1 am sure that most of the other

    
  

colleges within this University are

doing as little. The University College
of Medicine has no black students in
its entering class of 108. it takes about
two seconds to count the number of
minority faculty on this campus, and
not much longer to see that the ratio of
minority students to the rest of the
student body is shamefully low.

I would suggest that the University
colleges that are engaged in their
charades either stop bothering with
this deception, flat out admit their
unconccern. and contat HEW in
Washington to say that the University
of Kentucky has decided it doesn‘t
believe in education for all; or that the
faculty and administration of the
various colleges make a serious
commitment to providing educational
opportunities to all races and classes of
people. This must include at a
minimum, aggressive recruitment
programs, early decisions on
acceptance and financial aid, and any
remedial programs necessary to aid in
overcoming the educational
disadvantages that individuals may
have suffered at the hands of this
system.

The Bakke decisions is being used as
a screen for working against

 

affirmative action programs. i
personally don’t agree with
“Rehnquist and the Supremes" that all
is alive and well in our nation; racism is
alive and thriving, and is now given the
backhanded lnEé‘ntivé’bf ‘judicial
acceptance of neglect on the part of
institutions to remedy centuries of
racial oppression.

It‘s interesting to note that in recent
years, people have begun to
acknowledge that racism isn‘t purely a
Southern trait. The school crisis in-
Boston, the housing crisis in other
Northern cities have made that
glaringly apparent, giving new
strength to Malcolm X's statement
that this country is divided into
“U psouth and Downsouth.” it‘s about
time that we focus on this community,
and begin to deal with these problems
here. The inaction of a community
speaks loudly about our values and
priorities.

For the record, if anyone tells me“if
you don‘t like it here, go back Iran.”
l'll personally whip them upside the
head. -

Hallelujah WCC

The funding of Zimbabwean black
nationalists by the World Council of
Churches is a justifiable. Christian
action. Churches that are affiliated
with the Council. and members of the
churches themselves. should join the
support for the WCC and strongly
consider more funding.

The $85,000 donated to the

Patriotic Front of Zimbabwe from the
WCC‘s Special Fund to Combat
Racism shows that today‘s Church
may not be so hopeless after all. It‘s
encouraging to see Christianity
aligned with a just cause for once
instead of continually degraded
through its heinous use by the status
quo to justify their existence and
subsequent atrocities.

Unfortunately. most people are
unable to equate violence with the

Gospel (unless it is against
communism) and serve to continue the
false stereotype of a milktoast Christ.
While there is no denying he
understood violence as a fact of life for
'us in this world. The people of
Zimbabwe (and South Africa and Iran
and . . .) have struggled peacefully for
their rights for too many years. They
are beginning to realize that violence
against their oppressors is the only
way now. I say Hallelujah to the

Few will attempt to justify the

Hope you realize

i would like to express my feelings
and thoughts to the readers of this
paper about the recent election of the
School Board. District ll.

Coating back from Europe, when:
We lived for the last four years, lwas
looking forward to observing and
participating in an election — an

election in the United States of
America, a country which i feel is
probably the most democratic and free
country of this world.

But sadly. sadly, I observed as votes
were bought. lies were told. and dirty
politics and money won. l speak
specifically of the handing out of false
and frightening leaflets when it was
too late to counteract the impact. ls
this a free, democratic nation if that
can happen? is this a country blessed
by God. when money is more
important than children?

| just hope that one day you voters
will realize what a good job my father
has done for you. He has respected
teachers and their rights, he has
respected the need of all children. and
the concerns of everyone —and that is
the only way to get quality'education.

My father, Dr. (Jim) Brhdua, it an
exceptionally honest, kind, and good
man and exceptionally qualified for

the job. He was hoping to help your.

children, and thus, this community.
Even if you dont have a child yourself.
each child in this community is God‘s
child — and thus, your responsibility.
too. Is money really more important
than life itself?

Submitted by Organization of

This Sunday, at 7:30 p.m..

Moslem Students will present a
documentary film about the
uprisings of Sept. 4 and 7 and
the massacre on Friday. Sept.
8. This 50-minute film, which
was stat on the scene and
smuggled out of the country.

of the uprising, but manifests as
well the true lslamic nature of
our people’s movement.

The film will be shown in [06
Classroom Building and will be
preceeded by a speech
beginning at 6 pm.

which started in early January.

Followinig widespread
demonstrations all over Iran
during the Fasting month
(Ramadan) — which were all
put to blood by the Shah‘s
security forces — Moslems
staged a huge general strike in
Tehran on Sept. 4, in which
more than half a million people
participated. Another major
show of force by Moslems took
place on Thursday. Sept. 7
More than one million people
took to the streets with
thousands of banners and
posters. openly calling for the
overthrow of the Shah‘s
monarchical regime and the
establishment of an Islamic
popular government.
