Capital campaign brewing

Decision set

for Spring

SBMESZ’BV

By Haili Wu

Senior Staff l I 'rtti'r

The goal is to jump from number
45 in the nation to at least number 20.
This is much harder to accomplish
than it seems.

Right now UK is in the early stages
of a probable capital campaign t at

may turn itself into one of the top 20
research universities in the country.

An outside consultant will conduct
a feasibility study to determine how
much money the university will need
to raise. who the donors will he and to
“talk to people about it." said _loe
Burch. Vice President of University
Relations.

The consultant will most likely be
from outside the Lexington area.

“There are two or three firms that
we know of and are comfortable with.
\\'e will chose from them.“ said Rex
Bailey. the director of the Develop-
ment Office. “The consultant will talk
to supporters to find out what kind of
interest there is.

“The study will determine a reason—
able goal for the campaign, and find

out people's opinion and support both
within and external of the university.
The consultant will talk to deans.
other administrators. faculty. staff.
corporations. and alumni."

The role of the l)e\elopincnt
Office will be to direct the consultant
to the right people outside of the This
versity. \Vben L'K decides to launch
the capital campaign, the development
office will coordinate it.

This is not the first time his has
conducted a capital campaign. But it is
the first time the campaign has
involved the whole campus. 'l‘radition—
ally. campaigns were conducted for
separate neet s. such as the building of
the library.

The library campaign was held
from 1991 to 1093. The process was

similar to this one and generated over
SI 3-} million for the new building.
Now the university needs money to
fund chairs and professorships. [To
measure a research university is to
measure how many research contracts
the school has with the government.
“L'K is generating a Hit” SI}; mil—
lion right now in research funding.
(To go from 45th to liltliiw'e need to
attract much larger research contracts
than we do today." lltlt‘cli said. "No
decision has been made to launch a
capital campaign."
The decision will he made after the
feasibility study is done in early I‘Nh'.

cal part of relationships they

Several speakers defended
abstinence and bashed premari-

Brian Hicks. a social work
senior. said people can get over
past mistakes and turn around
their lives.

“If you've gone down the
wron path. you don't have to

its cause. Promise Keepers is a
national group ofChristian men
who take an oath composed of
seven promises it believes will
help them become better people
in the eyes ofGod.

The group. started by Bill
McCartney. the fortner head
football coach at the University
of Colorado. is famous for its
huge religious gatherings where
men pour out t eir sou s in dra-
matic displays of emotion. The

Committee
promoting
eourity

By Mike Heppermann

(.‘outrt/tllflng ll 'rttcl‘

The Inclusive Learning (Iommittee is trying to
make students. faculty and staff feel safe and secure
during the school year by promoting ['K‘s policy
on racial and sexual harassment.

Members of the (ionimittee produced and dis-
tributed pamphlets discussing what constitutes
racial and seyual harassment and w here people can
go for help if they feel they've been harassed. They
distributed the pamphlets to residence halls. fraterr
nities and sororities on campus. as well as to llic‘ttltt~
ing freshmen at fall orientation.

Student members of the (Ionimittee also rallied
for the formation of emergency phone number
cards with the Committee's principles printed on
the back. Some ofthc principles
printed on the cards include
“lifelong learning." "academic
excellence and personal integri~
ty." “freedom of thought and
speech" and “cultural diversity
and human dignity."

The (iommittee promotes -
viewing L'K as a diverse institu— Stewart
tion committed to sharing the
ideas of different cultures. A shortened statement
put together by the leaders of the (Iommittec is
“the active engagement of students. faculty. staff
and alumni in the pursuit of learning in an em It'tH’I'
ment of equality. civility. academic freedom. secu-
rity and mutual respect for the rights and responsis
hilities of all members."

()ne of the goals pursued by ieople engaging in
inclusive learning is “to enrich tie quality of life of
citizens at the local. state. national and global levels
by extending the practices of inclusive learning
outside the borders of the university campuses."

Everyone is invited to participate in meetings
and events.

“There is no set list of exactly who is involved
with the Inclusive Learning Community because
we (members) are constantly in the process of
becoming.” said Vice—Chancellor for Minority
Affairs Lauretta Byars.

But lone student representative Alejandro Stew-
art said the committee could do more to include
more student members.
