S(i:\ President .Melanie Cruz said this
turnover breaks the trend of previous
years, when the number of returning sen—
ators was much larger, and odds are these

incumbents will have a greater chance of

getting revelected, she said.

The fresh blood might pump new ideas
and new perspectives into the association,
some senators said. btit other officers view
the additions as a lesson in patience.

“Hopefully whoever is elected presi-
dent will take the Initiative to inform new
senators and what kind III a part they need
to play in the process," said (Iarric I’eigel,
a marketing junior and senator at large
candidate. “I don‘t believe that people
aren‘t interested anymore."

She attributes the heavy turnover to
graduation atid senators leaving their
posts Ior other offices on campus, rather
than the bill that required senators to
gather 400 signatures to be a candidate.

In fact, l’eigel said. the signatures bill
passed by a wide margin in the S(i.-\ Sen—
ate, with only four or Iive opposing the
measure. Nevertheless the requirement
might have discouraged some senators
from running again, said lieigcl. who took
the responsibility in stride.

“I got to meet 400 people that I didn‘t
know beIore." she said. “The whole pur—
pose

ed and willing to work Ior their coit—
stituents."

Rachel Bomberger. a nursing sopho-
more rtinning Ior senator ofher college.
said the signature method piits elections
in students’ minds.

As for the number of inexperienced
senators coming into S(iA, Bomber er
said it will present challenges to the 0l( to
help amalgaiiiate the new.

“That's a weak point for Us, because

was not only to inform people of

it‘s going to take so much more time Ior
people to get with the program." she said.
“New people are great, they have a lot of
new ideas. but sometimes it's not used
constructively.n

Senators face a horde of important
issues next year. Cruz said, with Ken-

SCIIIIIBI‘ says experience, taith Will '18") him lead student

By Aaron Sandertord

C(mtpm Editor

joe Schtilcr is (lhristian.

Faith defines his character. It is
the root of his convictions and the
source of his strength.

The most experienced candi—
date Ior Student (iovernment
Association President is serving
his third year in the organization.
this time as executive I irector Ior
Academic AIIairs. But Schuler is
also a member of Promise Keep-
ers and a man of faith.

A social work junior Irom
Louisville, Schuler was raised by
(Iatholic parents. But he and his
sister Sonya took a different path
to Christianity. ICvcry Sunday the
Schtilcr children would dress tip

. ‘

and walk to a neighbor's house.

Mrs. Schultz. as Schuler
remembers her. was an elderly
widow whose daughter was blind
and had no children of her own.
Schultz took the Schulers to a
nearby Baptist church each week,
and she treated them like the
grandchildren she never bad.

“My sister and I would look
Iorward to going to church with
her every Sunday", Schtilcr said.
“\\ e (I Loine baLk and she (I cook
for us, while we got the chance to
talk with her daughter. I think we
got as much or more out oIit than
\lrs. Schultt did."

Movmg away was a blow to his
faith.

“Asa kid, it was fun," he said. “It
wasn't until high school that I stan—

cd looking for something deeper."

Schuler beg an looking to the
Bible for answers to his everyday
life questions btit still had problems
with or anized religion. He said it
was diIIicult dealing with people
who told him what to believe.

SGA work at UK demanded
open-mindedncss. It oITered Schuler
an outlet to explore diverse beliefs,
and to tweak his own.

Schuler discovered his Chris—
tian comfort zone and has
returned to church. But he is not a
Bible-beater.

“I don't have a problem accept—
ing what other people believe," he
said. “I‘ve always believed that you
don‘t force your beliefs on anyone."

In his role as executive director,
Schuler often must ptit his person—

q

-n.~u..'s ~- -'

al beliefs aside for fair judgment.
The ability to weigh issues objec-
tively is crucial Ior any president,
Schtilcr said.

“ l be main concerns onL campus
are things that affect us no matter
what our diverse background
might be," he said. “I have to be
able to work with anyone regard-
less of their beliefs."

Schuler disagrees with people
who say electing Schuler and run—
ning-mate Carrie Sparrow is a vote
for more of the same. He said the
argument is fundamentally flawed.

“There is only so muc you can
do at each level of student govem—
ment." he said.

He said his time as executive

NOW [RISING ‘Rem‘ plain~ in Cincinnati '3‘ Arena/fCenter flirting/.7 April i and carrier in [annual/cl Kent/Ii A". (

Energetic rock musical
brought to Cincinnati

By Dan O‘Neill

. li‘wililn' I'itllftll'

Drugs, disease and depression.

First the recipe for a Charter
commercial; now Broadway's
hottest ticket.

Rennjonathan Larson's rough
and rugged. hip and heartfelt spin
on Puccini. takes these sobering
elements and spins them into pure
musical gold.

The high voltage rock ‘n' roll
musical, which garnered four ")6
Tony .-\wards including Best
.\Iusical, opened at Cincinnati’s
‘\I'()ll()ff Center last night for a
two-week run.

For those familiar with the pro—
duction, former “Doogie Ilowser.
.\'I.I)." star Neil Patrick Harris
began the tour in a starring role
on the national touring group the
Benny Company. Harris has since
left and the grotip shows no signs
of missing his absence.

After an uniitipressive.
wariiied-over opening title num—
her (a whiny rant from kids who

don't want to pay rent), Rem kicks
into high gear and the retiiainder
bristles with energy and enthusi—
asm.

The basic story revolves
around two roommates .\Iark, a
filmmaker, and Roger. a musician.
who live iii an abandoned building
in New York's Lower ICast Side.
()pening on Christmas live, the
two receive a phone call from
their former roommate and now
owner oftlieir building. Benny.

Ile‘s demanding rent in hopes
of eventually evicting all his ten—
ants to htiild a high~tech cylier arts
studio on the property. From there
we’re introduced to the other five
main players and the down-and—
out, drug-invested, disease—ridden
environment they live in.

The roommates are having a
hit of girl trouhle. Roger’s girl—
friend left a suicide note saying
they both had AIDS and Mark's
girlfriend Maureen left him for
another girl annne). :\s a result,
Roger sinks into deep depression.

ontetintes otte heavy, calorie-laden nteal just

doesn't ctit it, especially on this campus!

So we _ tlte students — titerrily prance into
the forest in search of a little ofthis and a little of

that to tickle otir taste buds.

That's cool, we catt relate totally and we're gonna
prove it. Instead ofour standard plain—Jane, bore—
‘em—to-death editorials, we just want to hit on a few
things that ltave caught our eye recently.

VBreakfast ofChatnpions: It’s not \Vheaties, but
it's not hot either ._, at least not in Mom’s
Kitchen iii the Student Center. It scents der when cotnmon sense went out of

vogue at UK. Yesterday, in its ever—infi-
nite wisdoiit, UK chose to waste valuable time and
money by washing away campaign messages that
were written in multi-colored chalk on sidewalks
around Central Catttpus.

\Vhy? \Ve understand that certain regulations
prohibit such displays, but for the love ofGod do

odd that we open up the Coffee Shop at 7

ant. but leave students and faculty waiting for a hot

breakfast until 8 a.m. when it's too late to grab a

bite before that much—too-early class. So if you’re

not iitto bagels. bananas or doughnuts tough!
V\\'hoa Nellie: The \\'illiam T. Young Library

will have 40 laptop computers that can be checked

otit for use in the library.

Some even cotite equipped with cellular modems
for surfing the net on a nice comfy couch. Are we
dreaming or is this really UK stepping it tip for a

change?

VElisabeth Zinser: ()ur campus chancellor is
being considered for the presidency ofa Michigan
university and we wish her the best ofluck.

It's been apparent for some time that despite her
devotion to UK, Zinser might not be the right “fit"
for this University.

It’s not unusual and certainly not a reflection on
her, but occasionally things just don’t fall into place
as was the case with a highly—respected and hard
working Coach Curry.

VSoap 8t W'ater: Sometimes we won-

we have to be so anal about it?

At the very least, the Physical Plant Division
could have contacted the Student Government
Association lie/ore erasing hours of hard work by a

candidate for student office.

Don‘t the writers reali/e that

She has donated her tiiite to

’I he fact that she continues to

Mystllylnn Kernel llxatlon
with campus Food Services

lit the editor:

l'\e noticed that the Kernel
staff ltas been somewhat preoc—
tupied with complaining about
[Is hood Services for the past
month.

Do you all ttoi have anything
better to do than write unin—
formed articles about food ser-
\ices?

Normally I regard reading
ottr campus newspaper .is the
most useless waste of time .i stu—
dent can spend during his or her
day.

However, in my flipping to
find the daily crossword puzzle, l
have found that ttot only do you

continue to write about sports
topics as if they could be covered
front sortie undiscovered and
interesting angle, (they are not)
but that a recent fascination with
the quality of UK Food Services
has infected the staff.

I have studied at four univer-
sities other than L'K and I have
first—hand knowledge that the
food services here at L'K is one
of the best around.

They have better meal plans,
better hours of operation attd
better food than any of the other
places l have been.

If you are so certain that their
prices are way out of line and
their meal plans are abnormally
restrictive —— you ntust be since
these sentiments have been
printed in your paper _. then do
a comparative study.

I thought that is what
reporters (ifthat is what you call
yourselves) do seek the truth,
ttot opinion.

Pretenders to the
throne need a clue

about leadership
I here’s been a lot of talk

during these elections
about apathy and students.

There’s been a lot of talk from
candidates about stopping apathy.

There‘s been a lot of talk about
proposals and promises and
accomplishments and caring
about students.

There's been a lot of talk about
wanting to make the Student
Government Association the best
it can be.

But the problem is all
the talk is just that: talk.

I have moderated or sat
through three events fea-
turing SGA’s candidates
this week and I’ve been
disgusted by the same
canned answers and the
lack of ability of any ticket

 

Schneg mean reaction."

She has caused more ofa stir in
these debates through her fellow
SGA senators heckling her from
the audience than by her promis-
es. After claiming to have made
big waves for students this year,
she seems to have done less than a
trickle. Her eer senators say she
is taking credit where credit is not
due; she disagrees. Whatever the
case may be, I don’t think it’s a
good sign that there are already

eople shaking their heads in dis-
belief at her claims.

VNate Brown: He mentions at
least once an event that he was
“Scratch,” the mascot for UK. His
big push is that he doesn’t really
have a platform. He just
wants to conduct polls to
find out what students
want. Problem is, you can’t
be everything to every stu-
dent. And if you’re bus
talking all the time, you’ll
never et anything done.
His sfogan should be:

to cotne up with one solid JIIIIIIIOI' “Vote for Nate, he is great
thing they can do for stu— SMIIII (at telling you want you
dents. Ed' . want to hear).”

This is easily the weak— (”fin He does have a few
est field of candidates I 0:9} original ideas, but he

have seen in my four years
here. They don't excite
me. They don't make me care.
They certainly don’t make me
care about SGA.

But I should care. The Student
Government Association gets
