0n Halloween. I found it
odd that there were
a large number of
parties going on in
the middle of the
week. I would have
thought that most, if
not all, of the parties
would have taken
place over the
weekend. I guess
there are people out
there who are more
creative than I am.
I’d never have
thought to have a

we might as well go

some things that

Earth Day needs a party

UK warns students of INS changes

Immigration: Have documents ready, officials say

By Alonso Soto
WWRITER “——

The uncertainty surrounding govern
ment efforts to tighten immigration laws
in the United States has the Office of Inter-
national Affairs telling international stu-
dents to have their documents updated and
in order.

The New Homeland Security Presiden-
tial Directive will create a Foreign Terror
ist Tracking Force.

This force will review student visa
policies with the goal of prohibiting the ed»
ucating and training of foreign nationals
who would use the skills to harm the Unit—
ed States and its allies.

At least one of the plane hijackers in»
volved attacks on the World Tracie Center

is suspected to have had a student visa.

Douglas Boyd. director of the Office of
International Affairs. said no immigration
laws concerning international students
have changed. and no government agen»
cies have contacted the university. He said
he believes there will be some changes in
immigration policies.

International students should make
certain visas are not expired and that their
documents have been properly checked by
international advisers. Boyd said.

Teresa Keller. an international stu-
dent adviser. said international students
will be asked more questions when apply-
ing for a visa. University officials will also
keep track of international students' class
attendance.

“There is a computing tracking system

 

in process to see if students are in class
fulltime There are some schools Work-
ing in the pilot program." Keller said,

Temple Black. the Immigration and
Naturalization Service spokesman for the
New Orleans district office. declined to
answer any questions about the change in
immigration policies and said the INS will
not comment until the White House makes
a decision.

Despite its silence. INS signed a $73 8
million contract last week with ACS Busi-
ness Process Solutions Inc. a Lexington
company to keep track of foreigners with
different types of visas living in the United
States.

US Rep Ernie Fletc.he1 R- Ky. helped
the Lexington company get the five-year
contract.

The contract was in the works before
the Sept. 11 suicide hijackings. said Fletch
er‘s Press Secretary Josh Holly,

On Sept. 27. Sen Dianne Feinstein. I)
(‘alif.. announced a proposal that would
ban foreign student visas for a period ofsiv
months

Feinstein later discarded the proposal
after meeting with several university of’fir
cials from her state who agreed to make a
better effort to track foreign students. said
her press secretary. Scott Gerber

Some ['K international students are
frustrated by the possibility of the changes

“I feel violated." said \‘eena Venii
gopalan. a pre-phariiiacv junior from 2am
Ina. “It's very difficult to get a visa to come
here. and when you come legally you are
under a lot of restrictions."

Noppadon Kowsuvon. president of
(TK's International Student ('oiincil. said
the changes can increase the country‘s see

pricking her back were the side
effect of a tumor.

Byars is just like every oth-
er freshman at UK: she rushed a
sorority and probably got lost
on campus. The difference is
that she has just begun the fight
of her life and the fight for her
life: the fight against cancer.

“I can‘t believe something
like this would happen to me."
Byars said in a phone inter-
view.

Byars has been diagnosed
with stage four non-Hodgkins
lymphoma. the most dangerous
in a group of diseases that at-
tacks white blood cells. Non-
Hodgkins lymphoma is the fifth
most common cancer in the
United States.

The outpouring of support
for Byars has been extraordi-
nary. Brook Wesley. a special
education senior and member of
AOPi. arranged a candlelight
vigil for Byars.

Not expecting much of a
turnout. Wesley was ecstatic
when the crowd that came
spilled into every part of the
yard behind the sorority house
last night.

Byars also seemed touched

“I just wish that I was there to
see everybody."

Byars is living at home.

Both Byars and Wesley
were glad that such good things
were able to spring out of people
so readily.

AOPi chapters from around
the country have sent Byars
flowers and words of encourage-
ment. and Byars said that the
unity that has grown around
her and her sorority is no acci-
dent.

“I believe in fate. every-
thing happens for a reason.“ she
said. “If this is God‘s way of
uniting us. so be it. God works
in mysterious ways."

In fact. Byars has found
much of her strength in her
faith.

“Turning to God. you can‘t
go wrong there." she said.

UK museum seeks new director, more space

UK Art Museum into a first- rate facility

Changes: Former chemistry professor leads art museum
during search; relocation to old courthouse possible

By Amber Ashby
CONTRIBUTING WRlTER

Although chemistry is his specialty.
Donald E. Sands also has a passion for
art.

This interest prompted the former
chair of the chemistry department to
forego retirement and serve as the act-
ing director of the UK Art Museum.

“I think art is important to the uni-
versity and to the community." Sands
said. "I'm honored to be a part of this
museum because I believe in its efforts
to educate people through art."

Sands is no stranger to administra-
tive positions. He served as acting dean
of the College of Arts and Sciences in
1997.

Sands" appointment was announced
June 29. He replaced Harriet Fowler-

Mobley. who retired .Iune 30 after hav-
ing served as museum director since
1990.

Applications for a new director will
be reviewed in October.

The appointment comes at a time
when the museum is facing a turning
point with the possibility of relocating
to the downtown Lexington-Fayette
County Courthouse.

The court will be moving into new
facilities. which are under construc-
tion. Sands said city leaders approached
UK with the possibility of occupying the
soon‘to-be empty space earlier this
year.

Although he said the shift probably
wouldn‘t occur for at least another
three years. Sands said the chance to re-
locate is instrumental in turning the

”All great cities and great universi.
ties have great art museums. and that's

what we want here.“ he said. “What we
would like is a more visible. larger fa
cility."

.Iane Boswell. gallery coordinator
for the museum. couldn't agree more

“We've simply outgrown this facili-
ty. and we‘re. running out of storage
space." she said.

Boswell said the museum has a per
manent collection of more than 3.500
items. and Since the facility houses
traveling exhibitions and hosts educa
tional programs to correspond with the
shows. there's a limited amount of
space available for use.

Museum staff members must decide
what few items can stay on display.
while the rest are locked up in storage.
away from the public's view. she said

“This would allow us to keep our
permanent collection on display at all
times." Sands said,

Sands pointed out that a Lexmgton
resident has. to drive nearly 80 miles to
View a larger. better known museum
like Louisville‘s Speed Art Museum.

If the [TR Art Museum moved into
the vacant courthouse. Sands feels that
a long drive to view great art would no
longer be necessary

"The visibility and space it would
provide would help to turn our facility
into a first-Class museum “

The relocation WIII depend largely
on the amount of money raised to fund
the jump. Boswell said If the project
falls through. she said there will always
be the possibility of an evpansmn

Both Sand: and Boswell said that
much of the success WIII stem directly
from whoever is chosen as the perma-
nent director

"It is imperative that we find a top-
notch director because there is a mo
mentum going on here. and we can't af-
ford to let that die," Sands said.

Season of love: Rent takes a stand against AIDS and intolerance,

Advertisement displayed flag incorrectly

.\.s our country heals frotn all that has happened. flying the Allit‘i‘lf‘tlll flag

a sign of unity. pride and freedom is very important. Unfortunately. iia

tioiial pride has not heeii at its highest as: of late. and many Americans have
forgotten or have never learned proper flag etiquette

Such was the case i tioticed ttpoii arriving on campus Thursday morning
where i saw the latest issue of the Keriiel Something was terribly wrong The
flag beliitid the photo and ad for llaniiy (‘oulsoii‘s speech was backward. The
l.e.\iiigtoii llerald Leader. on Sept it. reported on proper flag etiquette. i wish
that more people could have read that article. including the editors of ACE
Weekly and the Kentucky Kernel. for both papers have made the same error iii
:i month's time.

The primary rule that i feel needs most to be re taught is this: When dis
played borinoiitally or vertically. the flags iiiiioti (starsl should he at the top.
to the flags own right. and to the observers left

liiiagiiie as if the flag were another person facing you. When yoit look at
that person. his or her right hand is opposite your left. in the same manner.
when \oii look at the flag. its own right is yoitr owii left.

So i ask allot you who want to show your patriotic spirit to do so by flviiig
"lil’ American flag proudly and to show the most respect possible by following
the l ode oi oitr flag This holds especially trite for any public organization to
which the public looks loi‘ iiiloriiiatioti such as the Kernel.

Peace is not the answer
for those already oppressed

.\ couple of weeks ago i told myselfl was finished writing columns about the terrorist attacks. [fig-
ured if] was sick of every writer iii the country spewing forth his or her expert advice on how to hati-
dle the situation. every one else was too.

“Enough is enough." i said. Well i hate to do it. but aii ignorant group of spoiled brats has forced
me to make a liar out of myself.

We've seen a surplus of them at the Kertiel recetitly. The self-proclaitned authorities on foreign pol-
icy and war tiiat love to cry about why tnilitary action in response to Sept. 11 is wrong.

They are all obvso enlightened atid hell bent on teaching its members of the barbarian horde to ttirti
the other cheek They love to say things like. “Don‘t fight terror with terror." and “War is murder."

They know all about why what we‘re doitig is unjust. Funny thing is. i haven‘t seen one of these
modern day philosophers offer their own solution. Not one has crafted an irlea of what we shoulrl do in
lieu of war.

So what do we do fellas'.’

Send ()sania a letter saying. ”Hey. we forgive you. Please don't murder any more Atiiei'icans"'.’ i
suppose you'd have its mosey about otir lives as encouraged terrorists continue their campaign against
our country My guess is. had any of otir pacifist friends had a loved one crushed iitider the rubble of
the World Trade (‘eiitetx they‘d not be so quick to condemn our military.

As for the family who wrote a letter to the president begging him to avoirl war after their son was
killed iii the attack oii New York. they should be ashamed. “Not in our son's name." they said. How
about all the other mothers and fathers in this country" l'm sure they appreciate your concern for
their living children as you request that they not be protected.

Also. oitr anti-war flower children are so sympathetic to the civilian women atid children in
Afghanistan. aren't they'.’ livery civilian death seems to touch them personally. Don‘t be fooled by their
false empathy By now everyone has seen what life is like for Afghans being oppressed under the Tal»
than regime. especially women. lfour dissenters really cared about the common people of Afghanistan.
they'd support full military action wholeheartedly. All their lives they've enjoyed our expansive Anter-
ican freedom. so why do they want to deny it to others“? The only way Afghans will ever get a glimpse
of peace and freedom is if the Taliban is decimated.

Every civilian death is undoubtedly a tragedy. but those tragedies can't sway its from the neces-
sary end result. if the Taliban is allowed to retain power in Afghanistan. those civilians will have died
in vain Just imagine. if America succeeds a few years down the road. the survivors may have the
chance to live meaningful lives. unencumbered by the fear of being murdered by their own govern-
ment for the slightest infraction of oppressive militant law. It's difficult to piit a price on innocent hu-
man life. but i think that goal is worth the casualties.

There is no such thing as innate human rights. Ask the women in lndia who get parts oftheir gen-
italia forcibly scraped out with a hot rock so they won't be unfaithful if they were born with human
rights Ask the women of Afghanistan who live under the Taliban to define human rights: oh. i forgot.
you can‘t ask them or the both of you will be shot in the back with assault rifles in the international
soccer stadium Human rights are nothing more than a piece of paper \vith fancy writing and signa
titres without people to protect them. If you don’t pick tip a gun and defend those rights yourself. how
dare you stand in judgment of those who do. and how dare you claim sympathy for the people we are
trying to free while advocating their remaining in bonds?

lTntil you grace America with a better solution. get off your soapboxes and have some respect
