UK law students reach out

Giving back: Students gain experience, help
low-income citizens with Legal Clinic

By Emily flagedorn

STAFF WRITER

Mary Treadway often finds
the elderly residents of the ass
sisted living center where she
works without money for
much-needed legal help.

But thanks to the UK Legal
Clinic. a free service run by a
class of third-year law students.
Emerson Center residents have
gotten advice and help with
their legal needs.

”They are caring. profes-
sional and a good resource for
low-income people." said Tread-
way, the assistant manager of
the Emerson Center. “We have
never had one person that was

dissatisfied with their service.
It's one of the best things that's
happened to us."

In the past five years. law
students working at the UK Le
gal Clinic have helped 400 peo-
ple who can't afford legal repre-
sentation.

“Generally. it's the best
representation money can't
buy." said Allison (‘onnelly the
clinic director and an assistant
professor of law

The UK Legal Clinic pro-
vides services for those without
the monetary means to get an
attorney. Eligible people can
gain service in areas ranging
from domestic abuse to writing
wills.

“It's a big deal when some
one realizes they need a Will be-
cause that means the person is
realizing they are mortal." (‘on-

“It really teaches the stu-

delicate situation."

Connelly said that after two
years of learning the theory of
law in other classes. students
enroll in this class and get to
practice it. They get to take on
cases and present in court un-
der the supervision of another
attorney.

As a result. the students
gain valuable experience.

"It increases their knowl
edge of the law and at the same
time gives a sense of accom-
plishment." (”onnelly said.

DEVELOBMENT

Construction
delays continue
on Rose Street

SAMANTHA HIITOI l mun Sim

The Medical Center expansion project, originally scheduled for comple-
tion in October, will not be finished until April.

Patience: Students concerned for safety;
project stalled by missing traffic poles

By Casey llamllton

STAFF WRITER

Despite expectations to the contrary. construction on Rose
Street near the (‘handler Medical ('enter won't be completed
until this spring.

The project. which UK said would be completed in late Oc-
tober. has faced several delays and won't be finished until
March or April. The setback has left some students frustrated
about the time it is taking to get the job done.

“I have a class in Ag North. and I have to walk all the way
around the back side. I hate having to walk on the road." said
Lewis Clark. a chemistry junior.

While construction still allows students to walk down Rose
Street on their way to class. it puts students closer to the road.
making some wary about walking down that path.

“It's dangerous on my bike. My class is at eight in the
morning and it‘s still dark out." said Lesley Hill. an agricultur-
al engineering freshman. “It's a pretty scary ride."

The current delay involves the delivery of traffic poles. The
poles ordered did not fit the lights. and it will take up to six
weeks for the new ones to be delivered. Officials are optimistic
that they will overcome the problems and get the project fin-
ished in the spring.

“We'll finish it within the first few days of April." said Dall
Clark. director of L'K's capital project management diviSion.

While construction is primarily located on Rose Street.
some of the work has spilled over near the dorms. leaving stu
dents apprehensive about walking to class.

“I don't like the construction beside Donovan Hall. because
you can almost get run over by a car." said Amber Graham. a
pre-nursing sophomore

Other students say they haven't notice the construction.

“It doesn't bother me. I live on campus and don't drive. so
it's not cumbersome." said Beef Watts. a math senior,

While construction on parts of campus may run several
months over the deadline. some students say that once they are
completed it will be better for the university

“It's necessary. so I'm OK with it We need to have the top-
notch facilities so students can learn in the sciences. which
seems to be what the university is focusmg on." said Nick
Smith. an Englishjunior.

Though the university says the project will be finished in
April. students remain skeptical.

“We'll just have to wait and see." said Douglas Hartig. an
architecture senior.

 liow hungry?

I guess I'd consider

myself a fairly
picky eater. I’m
not big on green
stuff. and I shy
away candy
containing nuts.
But there comes
a time in every
student's life
when he must
ask. ”Should I eat
that or not?"
There are
limitations to
what anybody will
eat, but it's
strange how
people are less
picky about their
food after
skipping a few
meals. Here's
where I draw the
line when I'm
hungry and a list
of things I
consider OK.

If it's wet and I'm

thirsty, it doesn't
matter if it's
cold. Soda does
not need to be
refrigerated. Milk
on the other hand
should never be
left out more
than four hours.

Bread tends to get

green it it has
been sitting out.
If you can pick
the green off you
can still make a
sandwich. If,
however. the
bread no longer
appears sliced
and looks more
like a large green
lump, disposal is
suggested.

I am a wholehearted

believer in the 5-
second-rule. It's a
well-known fact
that the
transferal of
germs takes
place at 6-
Mississippi.
Carpet germs
move even slower
and have been
clocked at rates
of lO-Mississippi.

Pizza is the wonder

food because l
often wonder if
I've ever had one
go bad. It can sit
out. it's good
cold. pizza sauce
covers most
strange tastes.
and you can’t tell
the difference
between toppings
and growths. I
would. however.
recommend
throwing it away
if whatever is
inside refuses to
let y0u pry open
the box.

Nothing is stale after

a brief stint in
the microwave.

Mexican leftovers

are safe to leave
out; germs and
bacteria try to
avoid it as it
often gives them
indigestion.

Tabasco sauce IS like

antibacterial

IN OUR OPINION

New dorm rules
long time coming

For those dorms residents who have never understood why adults are not allowed to
associate VV ith membe1s of the opposite sex past midnight on weeknights and 2 am. on
weekends yout pleas have apparently not gone unnoticed

Student Govetnment will vote next WednesdaV on whether to support a new visita-
tion policV fol students living in the dorms While the specific dorms havent been

n.amed the proposed plan would institute a pilot program to allow 24— hour opposite
sex visitation.

This would be a positive step fot SG and for residence life. And if UK chooses to
adopt the policy. it would also help the university catch up to schools like Western Ken-
tucky and Mu1ray State wheI e policies have already been updated to allow men and
women to coexist legar dless of the time of day.

Such changes will also accompany more responsibility. though. Noise level could
be an issue which would increase the burden 011 residence advisers to enforce
existing 1egulations.

Also students should alan s keep theii roommates in mind before the girlfriend or
ber iend moV es in for the semester Such an occuri ence has happened to a good many
people 111 the past and could easilV become a pioblem if the p1 oposed changes
are enacted.

SG and Residence Life should be careful as well. Some students move in to single-
sex dorms for a reason: there are advantages that some find attractive, such as less
noise. less drama and more freedom. Those probably won’t be the dorms considered for
the pilot program theie will no doubt be those who want to change them in future.

And while a new Visitation policy would not be the equivalent of coed dorms. the
costs and benefits should be carefully weighed before drastically altering the policy in
single sex dorms

The proposed change 111 1egulations would be a good first step. though and should
be treated as such. UK should follow SG 8 lead.

Success follows
if you overcome
life's obstacles

Swishing down the slopes of Perfect North slopes as
gracefully as a rhinoceros in a china shop, I was forced to
reckon with my life as it flashed before my eyes. This past
Saturday. I found the truth in the old adage, “The best gifts
come wrapped in the most unusual packaging." In this case.
the wrapping paper was snow and the gift was amazing.

Growing up. my parents instilled in me the incredible
virtue of believing in myself, and the achievement of my
dreams was only as difficult as I
tnade it.

This past weekend. with the

inspiration of a newfound friend.
Mike. I was reawakened to the
potential that lies within my future.
and how easy it is to see past
current troubles.

While we all fall off our skis
every once in a while. the process of
standing up and trying again is what
really makes each of us the W
better person. WW WW?

Who cares if you slipped up as
long as you know what you did
wrong. correct your mistake and try again? Nobody expects
perfection. but the boundaries of what you can accomplish
are endless as long as you believe in yourself and embrace
life in its fullest.

As we all know. the winter months can be rather
depressing. and with class. work. family and friends putting
pressure on our lives. it can be rather difficult to
accommodate something as simple as personal time. My
challenge to you is this: make all your time personal time.
Each experience you have. from skiing to deep conversation
and novel writing. the more of yourself you put into your
work. the more you get to see the realization of your
dreams. So what if you make a typo or fail. keep going.

Believe.

Some people have difficulty applying dreams to life
because they seem so intangible. I challenge you to prove
that theory wrong. I may not be the best skier in the world,
nor will I ever be. but taking the risk of trying something
new does not only inspire
