Parking space
- now available

By Cara Fodder:

Contributing Writer

The new UK parkin structure
has students and facu ty hoping
for a change in campus parking.

Three hundred students will no
longer be able to use the excuse “I
couldn’t find a place to park”
when they stumble into class 10
minutes late.

One thousand spaces are avail—
able in the new parking structure
on Limestone; there are 600
employee spaces, 300 student
spaces and 100 spaces allotted for
viSitors.

Although the original comple—
tion date was December 1996, the
)lan to improve campus parking

iegan four years ago.

The parking and transportation
committee, consisting of students,
faculty and staff, proposed to hire
a professional consulting firm to
give advice on UK parking facili~
ties.

“The parking structure will
have a tremendous impact on
campus life," said Director of
Parking and Transportation Don
Thornton. “It not only accommo—
dates 300 students right off the
bat, but former employee spots
will now be available for com-
muter or residential students.”

Some students who purchased
()5 parking permits this year pre-
viously parked in the K and Vir-
ginia Avenue lots.

Half of the students had no
prior permitsThe parking and
transportation office is pleased
with the com letion of the park-
ing structure Iriecause of the prob—
lematic library construction. The
construction site, which con-
sumed what used to be known as
Clifton Circle, destroyed an abun—
dance of employee and student
parking.

Some students are concerned

with the employee-to-student
ratio of parking spaces.

“1 wish students were 'ven
more spaces,” said senior usan
LaVelle, “but it is a positive addi-
tion to the campus because it will
free up other parking (spaces) on
the streets.”

Thornton said the parking
structure will begin with this divi-
sion between students and
employees.

“This time next year it may be
600 students and 300 emplo 'ees,”
said Thornton. “First we’l have
to see how the spaces are used.”

The structure is located close
to Central Campus, which gives
visitors convenient parking to take
advantage of the facilities at UK

The skywalk over South Lime-
stone provides pedestrians who
park in the structure a way to
cross the street safely while avoid—
ing traffic. An additional way to

Country singer
poised tor lame

Garth pupil
makes debut

By Susan Ward
Staff Writer

At 29, )eff Wood, the new kid
in country music, is pursuing his
dream instead ofa law career.

An Oklahoma native, Wood
left law school at Oklahoma State
University just before his last year
to pursue his career as a country
music singer. I spoke with him
recently, while he was out touring
to promote his
debut album,
Between the Earth
and the Stars.

Q:' What made
you decide to pursue
your career as a per-
former rather than a
lawyer?

Jeff Wood: It was
more of an innate
thing, almost. I had
to do it. I really felt my calling was
in music even before I started
law school. I think I was just too
scared to go chasing my dream
because it was such a risk. But I
got into my last year of law school
and I said, “IfI don't do it now, I’ll
never do it,” and I just took off.

Q: You called Garth Brooks when
you first went to Nashville. How did
you get to know him?

JW: Actually the first time I
met Garth was when I was a junior
in hi h school and he worked for
Oklahoma State University. He
would travel around the state of
Oklahoma with a performing ban-
quet. He was the entertainment
and they would try to recruit kids
to go to school there. He and a
group came to my small town.
And I‘ll never forget, he stated
playing, and I told my mom, who
went to the banquet with me,
‘Man, I’ve got the weirdest feeling
about this guy. I think he’s some-
body special.’ And it wasn’t neces-

‘J

of
Jell Wood

sarily that he had a great voice or
could play the guitar well. It’s just
the way he handled himself. So
afterward I went up and intro-
duced myself to him and we
became acquaintances . and
exchan ed numbers. When I went
up to klahoma State and started
school there, he was actually in
graduate school. We used to go
see him play at the Holiday Inn
and frat parties and all that. When
it came time to graduate, my heart
was tellin me, ‘I want to become
a singer.’ o I thought, ‘You might
as well call your contacts.’ I pic ed
up the hone and called Garth in
Nashvi le.

Q: When you first moved to

Nashville, you weren’t a songwriter.

But, now, you’ve to-

written five of the I 0

songs on ‘Between the

Earth and the Stars.’

What has the process

of betoming a son -

__| writer been like fir
you?

JW: I’ve always
been a songwriter.
(But) I have never

considered myself one. It’s really
intimidating, especially going to
Nashville because that’s where the
eatest son titers in the world
Eire. I’m earning slowly to
become a better songwriter every
day, and it’s really startin to
become a passion for me. T at’s
really how I got my break, I co-
wrote a song that was a No. I hit
forjohn Michael Montgomery.

Q: I’ve read about how much you
love perfbnning. What exactly do you
like so much about it?

JW: I’ve just done it my whole
life. To me, it’s a goal: once you
get up there, to be able to connect
with our audience, whether its 10
peo e or 10,000. And every time I
per orm, I’ve found that I m usu-
ally able to connect. There’s no
better feeling than that: than to be
able to share your music and make
people happ or all different emo—
tions through your music.

Q: You ’re out on the road right
now. that is that like and are you

enjoying it?

 

I’k'nln tutu: 57,1

800nm Twenty—eightyear-old ()klamhoma notiz’efiff ll 'oml .vingr ofhn
ambitious dream: on his debut album ‘ch'een the Earth and Starr. ’

]\V: I’m having the time ofmy
life. It’s exhausting. It’s a lot more
work than I ever dreamed it was

onna be. I’m gonna be away from
Eome for a couple of months
straight before I go back and sleep
in my own bed. I’m doing some
shows with Deanna Carter and
\Vynonna and LeAnn Rimes,
which is really cool.

Q: What isyourfavorite song on
‘Between the Earth and the Starr’
and why?

JVV: Probably “You Call That a
Mountain” — the first cut. That’s
what I want to be about as an
artist. I really don’t want to do dit-
ties and hokey country songs. I
want to do songs with meaning,
more songs like james Taylor

gone country.
Q: lVbt’rt’ do you .\‘t’r' yomirrlf m

fire years?

IVV: A lot of country artists
today. their dream was just to have
a shot to cut an album and to
enjoy a little fame, I really feel it’s
my calling to be involved in music
for the rest ofmy life. And I’m not
looking at short-tcnn goals I real—
ly don’t think about I‘intcrtaincr of
the Year or anything like that. I’d
be lying if I said I don’t think
about it, but those aren’t my ulti—
mate goals.

My ultimate goal is to make an
impact, and have an impact with
my music for a long time. So, I
hope to be doing what I’m doing
now 15 years from now.

Silver Jet drags
more than it pulls

By Jeremy Room
staffcmu-

Pop goes the Silver Jet. ()r was
that bust.=

Pull Mr Up — Dru Mr Dorm is
the debut album for tfie 4-year—old
pop trio. Since signing with Vir-
gin, Luke Tierney and his band
mates have spent the past year
working meticulously on the
album. T he hard work is revealed
in the excellent pro-

contemporar op. “Kid,” “All
You Are” and, eant To Be” are
well organized upbeat pop songs,
but they lack anything outside of
snare drum downbeats and punchy
rhythm guitar accompaniment just
to ornament the tune.

“Master Plan,” “Plastiqa” and
“The Crown” are in your-face
rock ‘u roll tracks, but they lack
the substance to kick into over-
drive. it's as if they're the little
engines that tried really hard but

 

 

 

just couldn't.

By Suzanne Ratteld
Aries (March 21-April 19): A

cop decides that you are some kind
ofspeed demon and decides to cite
you for a ticket. But unbeknownst
to him, you are a speed demon
with powers to make people spon-
taneously combust. You obliterate
the cop and spend the rest of the
evening playing with the siren,
which amuses you greatly.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You
keep running into the same
obnoxious people. You would be
line and content to 'ust avoid these
unsightly errors onyour past, but
they insist on greeting you with a
mass amount ofperkiness. There's
nothing you can about this, other
than run away screaming or duck
behind the large pieces of foliage,
which line our lovely campus.

Gemini (May 2 I-June 20): You
get a big trophy on Thursday for
“ori inality, daring and audacity.”
Birt‘f: sing, the sun is shining and
people ask if you’ve lost weight.
Ilappy times await you.

Cancer (June 21—_]uly 22): Like
a malignant disease, you’re always
lingering around. On the positive
side, on tend to ointo remis—
sion, leaving the ot ers who asso-
ciate with you some recovery time.

 

Leo (luly 23—Aug. 22). Your
ego is about the size of the Empire
State Building. The size of your
ego is entirely justified, because
you are one of the greatest human
beings ever to be born on this
planet. That, or you’re a sociopath

with extreme delusions of
grandeur.
Virgo (Aug. 23—Sept. 22):

You‘re so cold that people confuse
you with a block ofice. But this is
part ofyour charm because it pro—
vides others with hours of enter-
tainment while they try to chip
3“"8y at your [Cy COVCrlng.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Most
people think you’re cute. What
they don't realize is you’re also
feisty. Your cute appearance is just
a decoy that makes other people
let down their defenses so you can
attack. You're a ball of fire encased
in the body of a cheerleader,
which makes you a force to be
reckoned with.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
T rv to avoid Capricorns this week
—— they will be cranky and violent.
Also, stay away from large dogs
with sharp teeth, as they will be
irresistibly drawn toward your
nice, pinky flesh.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
Avoid buying new bath products

WHAT'Syour Sign?

this week. They will not smell the
way you want them to and will
cause an itchy rash. Stay home on
Saturday to can ii that jllii‘lii ( ill
from your crush; if you iiuss it it
will negatively iffcct the test «it
your life.

Capricorn (Dec. 22~jan 10).
On Thursday, be wary of anything
with more than fotir legs. Don't
walk too much this week llnlt's‘s
you want to lose both legs. Also,
avoid Pisceans like the plague.
They are rather klutz with their
motor vehicles and thei will be
heading directly your way

Aquarius Gain. 20— leb. iii):
'1 his weekend, don t talk to any-
one you don't know like the palm
of your hand, unless you want to
join their cult/sorority/fraternity.
Don’t answer the phone on Mon—
day. Your mother is planning on
bestowing you with a massive
spring guilt trip. Try taking deep-
er breaths on Friday, it will help
you relax.

Pisces (Feb. l‘)—March 20): Do
not drink anything that contains
carbonation. It will cause you a lot
of grief. Avoid high overhangs, as
large objects really want to fall on
your head. Try to read a book on
Sunday in order to replace lost
brain cells that fell out on Friday.
