Portraits of change

For some Americans, Sept. 11, 2001 was a day of immeasurable change.
For others, the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon
resonate in smaller; yet significant, ways. For stories, see page 2.

Weixi Li says he feels better
about being on campus.

Last October, Li. a student
from China. was walking from
the W. T. Young Library to
Cooperstown Apartments when
he was confronted by a white
man in a black pickup truck.

The man shouted racial
slurs at him. and Li raced back
to the library.

It took a while for him to
get over it. he said.

“I was bothered at first. but
now I feel pretty safe (on cam-
pus)." Li said.

In the aftermath of Sept. 11.
there were five attacks involv-
ing international students on
campus. which left many in the
international community fear-
ing to walk across campus at
night and resorting to carrying
pepper spray and traveling in
groups.

A year later. some interna-
tional students say they are no
longer worried about their safe-
ty, but they are cautious.

Jack Peng, president of the
Chinese Student Association.
said he feels safe because Lex-
ington is a fairly small town.

Although he was concerned
for those who were assaulted
last year, he said that he never
had any problems.

“As a student. I really don’t
feel that I have anything to wor-
ry about." he said.

Mangesh Kolharkar. presi-
dent of the Indian Student Asso
ciation. expressed more
concern.

“It‘s possible that there
might be something happening
(on the anniversary of Sept.
11)." he said. “We have to be a
little bit cautious."

Still. Kolharkar said he feels
safer now compared to last year.

Karen Slaymaker, assistant
director for International Stu-
dent Services, said she‘s not
aware of safety concerns among
the international community.

She said most students are
still upset about the terrorist at-
tacks and feel this is a time for
coming together.

Saleha Badrudduja, presi-
dent of the Muslim Students As-
sociation, said she‘s seen a posi-
tive response from the interna—
tional community.

“Everything has kind of
died down." she said.

worthiness of invasion in Iraq

By Emily It edorn
and Abby Ch baudy

STAFF WRITERS

As violence in the Mid-
dle East escalates. UK profes-
sors expressed their hesita-
tion Tuesday night toward
an Iraqi invasion.

“The Continuing Impact
of 9/11: A Year Later.“ a sym-
posium held in the Student
Center’s Worsham Theater.
allowed about 220 students.
faculty and staff to react to
world events since the World
Trade Center attacks.

A similar forum last
year stirred emotional senti-
ments. but this year's goal
was to provide a more
indepth analysis.

“We wanted to get into
the mechanical, diplomatic
and institutional aspects of
9/ 11." said John Stempel. di-
rector of the Patterson
School of Diplomacy and In-
ternational Commerce and
director of the event.

Among the those ex-
pressing their opinions.
Mike Desch. associate direc-

tor of the Patterson School.
pointed out that by involving
an Axis of Evil — North Ko-
rea. Iran and Iraq — the Unit-
ed States didn‘t have a “real-
istic strategy or realistic
expectation.“

“(We need to) keep our
eye on the ball, and the ball
is al-Qaida." he said. “The
Bush administration‘s eye
has strayed from the ball
with the attack on Iraq."

Gene Gholz. assistant
professor at the Patterson
School. said the immediate
economic effects of Sept. 11
were small compared to what
the United States would pay
in a future war against terror.

According to his find-
ings. an Iraqi invasion would
cost $30 to $100 billion in
military costs. This is small.
though. compared to the $25
billion the United States
would pay per year to recon-
struct and maintain a new
government there. he said.

“We‘re using Sept. 11 as
an excuse to spend a lot more
on defense.“ Gholz said.
“Our kids are going to have a
lot of trouble when their tax-

es go up."

Karen Mingst. professor
at the Patterson School. dis-
cussed U.S. international re-
lations. and Robert Pringle.
adjunct professor at the Pat-
terson School. took a more
historical approach.

John Roseberry. a social
work junior. asked the pan-
elists what they foresaw as
an end to the conflict.

His question was ana-
lyzed. but after their respons-
es. he felt he was given “the
runaround.“

Overall. he said he
thought “the panel had lost
the innocence of youth."

Hope should play a
major role in the future."
Roseberry said. “I thought
they were quite explicit on its
hopelessness.“

Christen Egan. a second
year Patterson School stu-
dent. said the panel‘s opin-
ions were realistic and
founded.

“They did try to weigh
the pros and cons and tried
to think about it from anoth-
er perspective." she said.

Bassem El-Azzami studies the Duran, the Muslim
Holy Book, at the lslamic Center near campus.

It didn‘t go beyond stares question-
ing looks from strangers on campus. People
thinking. Bassem Fl Azzami assumed. that
it all happened because of people like him.

Islam. Jihad. The Quran. Al-Qaida.

Terror

After Sept.11. most Americans got an
abridged introduction to the Islamic world.
Suddenly. for some. passing a young Mus-
lim student like ElAzzami on the street
meant something new.

El-Azzami didn't talk to many Ameri—
cans in the days after Sept. 11. “I tried to
avoid conflicts." he says. almost a year
later.

Like many Muslims in America. he
worried about the backlash. Someone broke
out a wmdow at the Islamic Center on
South Limestone. Five international stu-
dents were assaulted on campus. In other
cities. the reactions were more violent.

“For me. it wasn't anything more than
looks. I thought that was normal for people
to act that way." he says.

ElAzzami moved to Lexington five
years ago from the United Arab Emerites
to study electrical engineering at UK.

When the attacks occurred. he was like
most Americans: in shock. grateful to be
alive. mourning the lost.

“I was 111 shock for that whole week. I
couldn‘t get focused." he says. “I couldn't
understand what happened."

He and others in the Muslim Student
Association gathered at Triangle Park for a
candlelight vigil that Friday.

“W1 needed to stand with the Ameri-
can people.“ he says.

Today. ElAAzzami will be at the campus
memorial. He'll go to remember. he says.
and to thank God he wasn‘t put into a situ-
ation like that of one year ago.

“I still feel the same way." he says. “I
am angry that it happened. What is going
on'.’ It just upsets me."

 

 

In 1967. John Lynch told his high
school guidance counselor he needed to go
to Washington. DC. to visit a college. In-
stead. he and a buddy drove from New York
City to Washington DC. for a peace march
in front of the Pentagon.

Lynch wore a necktie emblazoned with
an American flag. He was mocking the
symbol; he wanted to make it unsacred.

"The flag became symbolic of an un-
questioning unthinking brand of patrio—
tism that was exclusive" says Lynch now a
part-time journalism instructor at UK and
editor of Lexington Family Magazine.
”There was no room for people who wanted
to ask questions.“

“I never burned a flag. But I was sym-
pathetic to those who were pissed off."

On Sept. 11. 2001. Lynch picked up his
son Jack from Maxwell Elementary School.
The teachers hadn‘t told the children about
the news of the day.

Like fathers and mothers across the
country. Lynch gently explained the attacks
to his son.

“Dennis is okay." Lynch told Jack,
referring to the boy’s uncle. who works in
Manhattan. “And we live in Kentucky.
we're not going to be a target. We don‘t
have to be afraid.“

“Did you see the plane?" Jack asked.

At home. Lynch let Jack watch the
footage before he went outside to play.
When he came back inside. the 8-year-old
sat down at the kitchen table. pulled out his
art supplies and colored an American flag.

After 30 years of scoffing at the image
of the flag. Lynch helped his son hang his
homemade flags from sticks in their
front yard.

“To see my son do that. it was interest~
ing. my reaction. It was a way of reclaim-
ing the flag.“ he says. “It was a way of say-
ing patriotism is OK. It’s a way to be
proud."

Lynch still has that old American flag
tie. lost somewhere among moving boxes
still packed away in his basement from his
move from Los Angeles to Lexington six
years ago.

“If I wore it now." he says,
would see it differently.“

“ people

 

Erin Reinshagen, a secondary education senior,
plans to move to Thailand after graduation to live
with her uncle at the 0.5. Embassy. On Sept. 11,
he was with Secretary of State Colin Powell.

Erin Reinshagen‘s father always told
her she would never see war in her lifetime.

Then came the attacks.

And then came the waiting. For three
days. her family waited to hear from her
youngest uncle. a bodyguard for (‘olin Pow
ell.

You '11 never see war in your lifetime.

“Maybe." she told her father. "i‘ll not
see the same kind of war you are used to.”

Her uncle‘s picture was in an Arabic
newspaper a few days ago. He was arresting
one of Yassir Arafat's officials.

He warns her to stay aware. He warns
her that more attacks could be coming.

“I think we're safe here in Lexington."
Reinshagen said. “But then I hear my uncle
say it‘s far from over.“

After she graduates in May. Reinshagen
plans to go live with her uncle and his wife
at the US. Embassy in Thailand for a few
months to help take care of their newborn
baby

She‘s getting the plane ticket for gradu-
ation. Her parents bought her luggage for
her birthday.

Her uncle warns her the trip could al-
ways be canceled at the last minute. It's all
pending on world situations. he reminds
her.

“Pending on world situations , can
you believe that? Since Sept. 11. it‘s all so
close to home." she said.

“And we‘re always afraid we'll get that
call that something has gone wrong."

"The idea of working

is a pretty popular one."
Segei‘stroin said. "it's not al-
ways a healthy process for

It just prolongs the stress.”

“They were curious." he
said. “People were definitely
more aware."

"They feel that they
should serve their country
and stand behind what we
believe in." he said.

According to other re»
cruiters from across the

l'niteil States. the number of

people who have enlisted in
the services has risen from
last year even before the
attacks, Luttrell said.

Lee lildei‘. public affairs
specialist from the Nashville
Reiruiting Battalion. which
heads the recruiting process
es in ’l‘ennessee and Eastern
Kentucky: confirmed that fact.

"We have had good re»

attacks people got a real

bad. you miss the whole exv

definitely sadness to remem-

growth to remember."

The "good things" in a
tragedy like the terrorist at~
tacks are not always easily

"it‘s hard to say to some-
one who‘s lost someone. ‘()h.

Segerstroni said.

But iii general. after
Sept. ll. many people were

Elder said that two or
three weeks ago. the Army
reached its goal of recruiting
87.000 for 2002. more than a
month before its goal date of
October.

“In the Lexington area
last month. we made our goal
of 27 new recruits for the
Army." Elder said.

“We are very optimistic
about more people being re-
cruited in the upcoming
inoiiths."Elder said. “We are
on a roll right now. but we
don‘t expect a huge increase
of new recruits just because
of the one-year anniversary“

There are ~182.000 men
and women (including new
recruits) on active duty in
the Army. which is about the
average. Elder said. Most are
between the ages of 17 and

number of people on active
duty is set by Congress and
rarely changes.

Elder said many people
called and applied to serve.
but found that they were not
qualified due to age, health
problems. police record or
low entrance exam scores.

This year. there are
around 130 to 140 students
participating in the ROTC
program at UK. though not all
the students are contracted.

When students are con»
tracted. they swear an oath
of commitment to fulfill
their college degree. com
plete ROTC classes and then
become commissioned as
officers of the US. Army or
Air Force.

Luttrell said even though
the recruiting numbers are

up. students are always en-
couraged to join. and Elder
said he agreed.

"Overall. it's been a
mixed bag with us." Elder
said.

“We have reached all of
our recruiting goals. but in a
way we're still struggling to
attract people to join."

Interested?

Students interested in
joining ROTC or Air Force ROTC
should go to Barker Hall.

9/11. there's been heightened
concern and a need to address
the possibility of an attack."
he said about the need for
plans.

Instead of distributing
medicines during a crisis. 10-
cal pharmacies would refer
patients to treatment centers.
he said. This would allow
dayto—day medical needs to
be taken care of.

Armitstead said that a
rush on local pharmacies‘
emergency treatments could
prevent people from getting
other necessary medications.

Armitstead said large
public venues would be used
as distribution sites. Church
es and schools would be ideal.
Twelve to 16 command posts
would be set up throughout
Lexington to distribute medi-
cines.

“We‘re preparing for an»
thrax. botulism, and mustard
and sarin gas ~ the list goes
on and on." said Armitstead.

Armitstead said faculty is
working with the Lexington
Hospital Pharmacy Countert-
errorism Committee to set up
contingency plans.

He said the plans are not
as simple as just stockpiling
medicines.

They are also planning the
distribution of drugs and ad
ministration of medical tests.

Drugs such as those that
help treat anthrax and sarin
gas exposure would be dis
tributed under the plan.

Armitstead said the com-
mittee was working to prepare
to deal with a situation involv
ing thousands of people. He
said if anthrax spores were re-
leased at a UK basketball
game. tens of thousands of
people could be exposed.

“If 24.000 people were ex-
posed to anthrax. would we be:
prepared to handle it?“ he
asked.

If 24,000 people were exposed
would we be able to handle it?”

Cats glad to be hom

Playing host: Men’s soccer team 2-2
with Cincinnati coming to town tonight

By Alex Williams

51m: WRITER

The No. IT I'K [liens soca
cer team hasn't seen too
many familiar faces- in the
stands this season.

The (‘ats (2-2) have been
on the road the past three
weekends and haven't hosted
a game yet. That will change
tomorrow when the (‘ats
host Cincinnati at 7:30 p.111.
in of battle of border rivals.

Coming off a weekend
when the (‘ats fell to No. 19
(‘reighton but redeemed
themselves with a dominat-
ing win against Butler at
Furman. they are looking
forward to playing on home
turf.

“We're very. very happy
to be coming home." (‘ollins
said. “The facilities are
great. the field is great. we're
looking forward to seeing
our fans because we haven‘t
seen too many familiar faces
in the past few weeks."

Playing at home should
only enhance the develop-
ment of the team. Collins
has used a lineup of new
comers and veterans this
season and he said mixing
the new with the experi‘
enced veterans should prove
healthy against a team like
Cincinnati.

The Bearcats are :1 dan-
gerous team that relies on
speed and athleticism.
Collins is wary of the
Bearcats because the (Tats
traveled up [773 last year and
lost a H) heartbreaker.

(‘ollins said if the team
wants to redeem last year‘s
loss they must match the
Bearcats' effort.

"We‘ve just got to come

out here and play our best."
(‘ollins said. ”We've got to
give great effort and match
their energy and enthusi-
asm. but at the same time
we‘ve got to finish our
chances."

Finishing chances to
score is what Collins has
been stressing.

Last weekend in Fur~
man. the Cats failed to capi‘
talize on numerous scoring
opportunities, but again.
playing at home should help
the Cats comfort level and
give them the ease of capital-
izing on their scoring
chances.

(‘ollins said some of
those, chances have come to
the freshmen that he has in-
creasingly been using. He
started five freshmen against
Butler and was pleased with
their performance.

Collins said it is creating
healthy competition through-
out the team and it is some-
thing that will only benefit
the team in the long run of
this early season.

"The competition on this
team is very healthy." Collins
said. “We're really starting
to see the way in which the
team is starting to develop
and I‘m unhappy with our
performance. but am pleased
with our development."

That development will
be a work in progress
against Cincinnati, but the
Cats will be doing it on their
home turf where they feel
most comfortable.

“Without question the
best soccer is ahead of us,
and we‘d like to kick it off
right on Wednesday even
though it is going to be very
difficult.“ Collins said.
