Donations will pay
or athletic dorm

By PHILIP RUTLEDGE
Copy Editor

A new dormitory is being built
exclusively for UK’s basketball
team from money donated by a
corporation known as the Wildcat
Foundation, a non-profit corporation
instituted by basketball coach Joe
Hall.

The $500,000 structure will be
located on Lexington Avenue, across
from Memorial Coliseum. Tentative
completion date is January, 1978.
according to Athletic Director Cliff
Hagan.

Hall organized the foundation last
fall. Foundation members solicited
tax-deductible donations from Wild-
cat supporters throughout the state.
Hall said he is now adviser to the
foundation.

Jack Blanton, business affairs
vice president and treasurer of the
University‘s Athletic Association,
said there had been no plans for a
new dorm prior to the foundation‘s

offer. “It was not on anybody‘s
priority list," he said.

Blanton said there was some dis-
cussion among association members
as to whether or not to accept the
money, but the consensus was to
accept the foundation‘s donation.

“When the dorm is completed, it
will be donated to the Athletic
Association,“ Hagan said.

Andrew Palmer. a state attorney
who works closely with Gov. Julian
Carroll, is president of the corpora—
tion. He said there were 30 major
donations. He added that many
persons donated smaller cash am-
ounts, as well as time. material and
labor. Several of the copious donors
are coal mine owners from eastern
Kentucky

Both Hall and Palmer refused to
release the names of the donors.
Hall said many of them asked to
remain anonymous for the time
being.

”Some donors don‘t want to be
known As soon as they are, other

charities will be calling them for
donations," he said.

Palmer said a plaque will be
erected in the foyer area of the dorm
with the names of everyone who
donated in any way. He added that
plaques with the names of major
donors will be placed on the bed-
room doors.

llagan said the donation was too
good to refuse. “l was between a
rock and a hard place. Coach Hall
said he needed a dorm and the
money was available," he said.

“The outstanding advantage of the
dorm will be privacy for the
basketball players,” Hagan said. He
added that it will be conveniently
located near Memorial Coliseum,
where the team practices.

Hall said the dorm will offer the
coaches a better way of planning the
players’ daily routine. He said the
basketball players have a more rigid
schedule than the average student,
especially during basketball season.

Private student records
are well—kept secrets

By MARIE MITCHELL
Associate Editor

Although UK‘s recordkeeping is
not as extensive as the FBI’s or
CIA‘s, it does keep a file on every
student.

From the day of first correspon-
dence with the admissions office.
through tenure as a UK student,
various types of information about a
student are gathered and kept in a
redord file.

Accumulated material includes
transcripts, grade changes, class
schedules, ACT scores and honors
received.

But this privileged information is
not at just anyone‘s fingertips.
There are specific, enforced rules
that protect a student’s privacy.

Responsibility for all academic
records rests with Jerry Legere.
associate registrar for student re-
cords. The only exceptions are the
Colleges of Medicine and Dentistry,
which maintain their own files.

There are no secrets kept from

students. Legere said. Under the
Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act of 197-4 ialso called the
Buckley Amendment), students can
reserve the right to review their
file.

All it takes is proof of identifica-
tion. However. students financially
delinquent to the University must
waive this right until they return to
good standing.

ACT scores, application for under-
graduate admission and academic
suspension, probation and reinstate-
ment actions are considered confi-
dential, Legere said. ()nly author-
ized University personnel or indiV<
iduals involved with student pro-
grams have access to this informa-
tion.

Only the student, his or her dean
and adviser and the dean of students
are sent grade reports. No one,
including parents, guardians or any—
one else supporting the student, can
receive a copy without the student's
approval.

However. if an office, such as
financial aid or the honors program.
shows what Legere thinks is a
legitimate educational reason to see
a student file, permission will be
gamed, he said.

Law enforcement agencies and
courts can also gain access to
student records at any time. But if
any government investigative agen-
cy wants to review a file. it must
obtain either the student's written
consent or a subpoena.

If a subpoena is issued, the student
is notified and the subpoena is
referred to UK legal counsel John
Darsie.

Non-confidential information will
be released to anyone upon written
or telephoned request. Legere said.
This includes a student's name, date
and place of birth. dates of Univer-
sity attendance. college enrolled in.

are $32 for a single enrollment and

said

“The purpose of our program is to

There are no premium discounts

Dorm draws technical

'Ihere‘s one redeeming quality about the new
basketball dormitory. The University isn’t
paying for it.

In fact, UK officials had no plans to construct
any athletic housing facility. If the school had
once entertained such a plan. then it quickly
abandoned it for two reasons.

First, the University would have had to
construct dorms for the women's teams, too,
because of Title IX guidelines drawn up by the
Department of Health, Education and Welfare
(HEW).

Second, UK administrators said the costs of
such projects would be prohibitive.

Head football coach Fran Curci agreed, saying
a dorm for his team would be expensive—pro-
bably several million dollars.

The University of Mississippi recently spent $5
million for an all-male sports dorm which
effectively segregates the athletes from the rest
of the student body. A veritable palace for the
jocks, it was paid for by university funds.

That‘s the case at the other Southeastern
Conference schools as well, except for Vander-

bilt University, which apparently does not put its
athletes on a pedestal.

This University shared Vanderbilt’s policy
until last fall when basketball coach Joe Hall
decided his squad needed a home.

Last October Hall organized the Wildcat
Foundation, a non-profit corporation which
solicited tax deductible contributions from
supporters of the Big Blue.

Eight months later, the foundation offered
Cliff Hagan, men‘s athletic director, $500,000 to
erect the facility. A sane man, he accepted.

Some of the contributors didn’t want their
names released because they feared other
charities would ask for money, too.

Evidently some people consider Kentucky
basketball more important.

And that’s why the basketball cam is getting
preferential treatment in this case, albeit from
outside sources.

It’s ironic that no monies have been solicited
for the 500-plus students who are on the waiting
list for residence housing. It‘s also discouraging
that athletic Cloisters are needed to compete for
national championships.

Ken Kagan‘s interview with the
Episcopal bishop of Lexington (Ker-
nel, July 7) is the most balanced I
have yet read in any Kentucky
newspaper. Mr. Kagan seemed
more interested in accurate report-
ing that he did in inflaming issues.

But I do wish to take exception
(one lighthearted. one serious) to
two words the author used. He called
Bishop Hosea “folksy." I have
known and loved the man for more
than 20 years and "folksy" he’s not.

Human, yes; gifted with humor,
yes; compassionate, yes. But “folk-
sy'"? Ugh!

The more serious comment is on
the sentence in which Mr. Kagan
says. "the only way the bishop can
impose his will is to refuse to ordain
women within his own diocese."

THAT is inflammatory; for to
speak of a bishop “imposing his
will“ reminds one. as Oscar Wilde
said in another connection, “of the
worse excesses of the French Revol-
ution.“ Seriously, there is a far
better word than “will” and that is
“obedience." Obedience to Almight
God is enjoined upon Jew and
Christian alike in the Holy Scrip
tures.

Within the Episcopal Church,
obedience to the doctrine, discipline
and worship of the church is asked of
every person ordained and this they
vow publicly. Bishop Hosea—in his
obedience to his understanding of
Scripture and the history of the
Church—is being obedient; and in
that obedience he will not ordain
women.

I, on the other hand, believe
myself to be equally obedient to the
living Word who is Christ himself
when I find no theological reason
why a woman may not be a priest.
But I am also obedient to my Church
in remaining with that portion which
chose to permit the ordination of
women and equally obedient to my
Bishop who has asked his clergy not
to invite a woman priest to perform
any sacramental function in that
parish or mission over which he has
supervision.

I was taught in seminar by Bishop
Hosea; we were fellow faculty
members in that seminary also. Yet
our understanding of scripture, trad-
ition, culture and the Church have
led us to different positions.

It is from that position that I must
express my regret over that sen-
tence about the bishop imposing his
will on the diocese, when in fact he is
reflecting the will and understand-
ing of the majority of Episcopalians
in this diocese (which not infre-
quently makes me feel quite lonely).

Woe betide bishop or diocese when
the governance is of the mortal will
of one man. But God blesses those
Christians who live under the pastor-
al and ecclesiastical guidance of a
man who lets obedience to God
control his conscience and will not
compromise that conscience merely
“to keep up with modern thought
and cultural evolution (and ap-
pease) modern philosophers." to
quote Mr. Kagan.

Indeed, if the whole issue (I‘m sick
of issues) would move from THAT

level to the level of obedient listen-
ing to Christ Himself (of whom the
New Testament is merely the record
and shadow), we might be enabled
to hear what his Holy Spirit is
clearly trying to say to us in these
turbulent declining years of the 20th
century.

the bank downtown that plays the

what the administration is thinking
of by blasting Protestant hymns all

Book exchange

On behalf of UK Student Govern—
ment, I would like to express

appreciation to the many students
who have shown an interest in the
continuation of the used book ex-
change.

At this time we cannot offer a fall
semester book exchange. However,
there will be one in December. Plans

for an improved version of this
experimental service began immed-
iately at the close of the first book
exchange in January.

Savings to students in selling and
buying used books will again be
considerable. We look forward to

your continued interest in this
program. Your support will insure
the success of the used book ex-
change.

Lackey turns to political aide

By KEVIN T. ELLIS

Approaching a new job or assign-
ment usually causes a degree of
uncertainty in just about everyone. I
will be going to new surroundings
(Washington, DC.) and a different
job in September.

The transition from stock clerk
and professional bag boy (not to

~"commentary

mention championship mop
swinger) to a Congresswoman‘s aide
should be interesting.

The advance brochure one
receives begins: “Do not expect to
walk into the office and be instantly
involved in the most glamorous and
substantive of legislative matters.
This will not happen . . . make an
effort to work in a professional
manner and your internship will be
very rewarding.“

Right away I got the feeling that I
would be constantly filing and
checking on reservations, but my
feelings of anxiety were soon laid to
rest as I read further in the letter.

 

 

“Every intern will be given ample
opportunity to do more substantive
work than just typing and filing."
The letter goes on to promise that I
will be assigned to a specific area
which I will do researach on. So, at
least I will be doing more than just
pushing paper clips from one drawer
to another. My exact job still awaits
my arrival. I hope they read their
own letters.

Some people say, “Why in the
world do you want to go to
Washington and spend a whole
semester there?" My first response
would be to say, “Because it's
there." But that’s a little vague.

There are two reasons why I want
to go to Washington. One is a purely
selfish reason and, at risk of
offending some readers. I will put it
as gently as possible. There is
nothing to do in Lexington after
midnight. For some people. turning
in at the witching hour means they
have had a full day.

I desire to roam the streets of the
city past midnight as I am not ready
to retire at that early hour. In
Washington there are theatres to go

to and many different social
functions to attend.

The second reason I want to go to
Washington is that there are a lot of
people applying to law schools and
most of them have grades as good as
mine. I also needed to do something
different to make my law school
application stand out. This need,
combined with my fascination with
Washington and my deep interest in
politics, made me decide to try
something different from the usual
academic offerings.

Now it remains to be seen how a
country bumpkin can adjust to life in
the cosmopolitan city of Wash-
ington. You see, it‘s a well known
fact that all we people are bare~
footed and haven't yet discovered
the modern wonder known as shoes.

Few people realize that not all
Kentuckians live in towns with
populations of only 50. Maybe they‘ll
learn something from me and I
might even learn a few things from
the city slickers.

Kevin T. Ellis is an aide for
Congresswoman Elizabeth
Iloltzman (D-N.Y.).

 

 

Good ideas usually surface in
the weirdest places. “Dogs of
the Stars," for example, was
born at the Clubhouse.

It seems that Kernel staff
artist William Fugate has a
fetish for dogs (a fetish for beer.
too; otherwise this series
wouldn't be possible).

Love of dogs wasn‘t the major
factor that influenced the 23-

year—old Fugate to push “Dogs."
though.
Love of MONEY was.

lifestyle (for the players) the
night before a game. Students
study all week and then on
Friday night, turn on their
stereo to relax. It would not
be feasible to ask students to
be quiet on a Friday night,”
Hall said.

“This is not unusual that
athletes be put in special
housing," Hagan said. Every
Southeastern Conference
school, except Vanderbilt,
has athletic dormitories.

Hall said he thinks the new
dorm will also help UK’s
recruiting efforts. “i thought
we needed to improve the sit-
uation we had. I felt out
program needed something

like this to attract the best
payers," hesaid.

Hall said he does not think
the move to the new dorm will
lessen the players’ contact

with other students.

However, Women‘s Athle-
tic Director Sue t-‘eamster
said she thinks dorms, I
general, are not good for the
athlete. “I feel athletes
should be kept in the main-
stream of campus life as
much as possible. They are
segregated enough as it is,"
shesald.

The dorm will have 22,000
square feet of floor space.
There are 23 bedrooms with
each bedroom approximately
14 by 16 feet. Each bedroom
has a private bathroom and a
large closet. Every bedroom
will be fully carpeted.

There will be a large meet-
ing room in the basement
along with a sauna room.
There will be one large
kitchen and two smaller kit-
chens in the dorm. However,
the players will continue to
eat their meals at the Student
Center.

UK guards files

and telephone numbers are
not given out, Legere said.

If there is a question about
accuracy of information con-
tained in the file, a student
may challenge the alleged
error, Legere said.

While transcripts, grade
changes and class schedules
are a matter of permanent

record, other information is
kept for a limited time, then
destroyed. Time limit de-
pends on the information.

“Sometimes we collect
more information than we
need,” Legere said. “To re-
dice storage space, every-
thing except transcripts is
placed on microfilm and the
paper copy is destroyed.”

Arts replace football

By RALPH STEVENS
Kernel Reporter

Culture is coming to UK.
Where ancient Stoll Field
once stood, the Fine Arts
Building is on its way.

Construction was delayed
because of the deep freeze of
last winter. Now 20 per cent of
the work is completed and the
building is scheduled to open
in November, 1978.

Jack Blanton, business af-
fairs vice president, has high
expectations for the building.
He calls it a “cultural center,
an opportunity that doesn’t
nowexist."

Divided into three sections,
the building will contain con-
cert and recital halls for the
performing arts, along with
an art gallery. Blanton said
that acoustics in the 1,500
seat concert hall will make it
one of the finest around.

What does this $6,170,000
project offer for those who
think the “Last Supper” is a
meal at the Commons? Pris-
cilla Colt, director of the UK
Art Museum, is convinced
that “We can interest those
people that are not so glued to

HAVE YOU PAID
YOUR HEALTH FEE YET?

masc0t

For your convenience, the Health Service will have
a table in the Student Center at the foot of the
ballroom stairs during the first week of school:
Monday through Friday, August 29-September 2.

You can pay your health fee and/or sign up for
the U.K. Student Blue Cross/Blue Shield Group
Insurance Plan at that table.

THE HEALTH FEE IS STILL ONLY $12.
WHAT A DEAL!!!

It will be a busy place.
Paintings will include works
by both Kentucky and inter-
national artists. Included in
the gallery will be original
sculpture and pottery. There
will also be a section avail-
able for faculty members to

display their creativity.
Plans for a student display
area is still in the discussion
stage.

How can art compete with
backhands and beer blasts?
Colt points to the many dif-
ferent areas of interests. “It’s
like anything you do—you get
out of it what you put into it."

Hunter provides
health options

Continued from page 1

According to Strassner, UK is
the largest of Hunter's 55
employer groups. An em—
ployer group plan allows
employes of member employ-
ers to enroll at a discount pre-
mium. Member employers
usually pay some portion of
the employe’s premiums.

For instance, individual
and family memberships for
UK employes are reduced to
$28 and $61, respectively. In
addition, UK pays $12 of each
premium.

The foundation recently ov-
ercame some serious admin-
istrative problems, brought

on by a shaky financial
situation earlier in the year.

“We were never in danger
of going under, but people got
the idea that we were and
began dropping out of the
program, which caused more
financial pressure," Strass-
ner said. “We were on a bad
financial route, but we were
never in danger of going
under.”

Strassner added, though,
that the worst appears to be
over. Service has been im-
proved and “tightened up,"
and enrollment, which had
bottomed out at 5, 700 in May,
is steadily increasing.
