lRC reiects vet school

     

By GINNY EDWARDS
Managing Editor

FRANKFURT — Gov. Julian Carroll
said Thursday he does not plan to
recommend funds to construct a
veterinary medicine school in Kentucky.
The Legislative Research Commission
(LRC) also recommended against
establishing a vet school

Although UK had once been considered
as the possible construction site, LRC
voted Thursday to adopt a report which
recommended against establishing a vet
school at any university within the state.

Instead. the report states, Kentucky
should try and secure more slots for
students at vet schools in other southern
states by increasing its participation in the
Southern Regional Education Board
(SREBi program. This program currently
makes 17 places available to Kentucky
graduates in four southern schools.

Carroll, who decided Thursday morning
to speak to the LRC, said construction of a
vet school is a question for the LRC and the
Kentucky General Assembly to decide.

But. Carroll said, “I have no basis to
initiate any funds for construction of a
veterinary medicine school in Kentucky.

“The General Assembly still has the
prerogative to resolve this question. I'm
hoping that this will show a new era of
cooperation between the executive and
legislative branches.“

Carroll said he also attended the LRC
meeting “to come and get the news media
to accept more responsibility in govern-
ment.“

Attacking the news media. especially
the Louisville Courier-Journal. he said
government and the media have
responsibility to the public to be accurate
and truthful. The Courier-Journal
editorials wrongfully said I intervened in
one study of the vet school situation.

“They have created a crisis that in my
opinion does not exist."

Later in the meeting, following a roll-
call vote, the LRC agreed to submit the
recommendation against construction of a
vet school to the Council on Public Higher
Education (CPHE).

The recommendation, which was
presented to the LRC as the minority
report of the Advisory Committee for
Veterinary School Study, was accepted
after approximately one hour of debate.

Much of the debate was on whether the
majority report, which was also submitted
to the LRC from the advisory committee.
should be presented to the CPHE as part of
the recommendation.

The majority report recommends that
the LRC request CHPE to submit any
alternative proposals which could be used
to increase veterinary medical services in

Drugs

By DAVID BROWN
Kernel Staff Writer

 

Conclusions of a drug study conducted
by four UK sociologists indicate expanded
drug use makes uniform enforcement of
drug laws impossible. ,

“You can hardly jail all those people
(who have illegally used drugs)“ said
Harwin Voss, one of the researchers for
the National Institute on Drug Abuse
(NIDAi financed study.

The study. based on a sample of 2,510
men showed 55 per cent of the 20 to 30 year-
old male population has tried marijuana,
and that use among young people is in-
creasing.

The study did not focus on marijuana use
alone; it examined nine types of drugs.
their frequency of use. effects on users,
and users' lifestyles.

The drugs studied included tobacco.
alcohol. heroin. cocaine. opiates.
sedatives. stimulants, psychedelics and
marijuana.

“There is no basis to suggest that the
drug epidemic has ended, indeed... the

1““;,ufifiéawwflwm;m,ufz*‘miuyfra. “as“. mu“ 4. w. . ..- n a .- » . if x z . i . . . . ._

data are consistent with a continuing in-
crease in use."

Differences in drug use among blacks
and whites and males and females, seem
to be disappearing, said John A. O‘Don—
nell. another researcher on the study.

Whites now use drugs as often, if not
more, than blacks; and females are
rapidly approaching males in their current
use of dmgs, O‘Donnell said.

Richard R. Clayton and Gerald Slatin
are the two other UK sociologists who
worked on the study. A fifth member of the
research team is Robin Room, University
of California at Berkeley.

While illegal drug use seems to be more
predominant in the younger groups than
older. use of tobacco has declined in
younger groups.

Cigarette use ”has been less common
among the younger men (slightly over 60
per cent) than among the older 175 per
centi.”

Alcohol a nd tobacco were found to be the
most commonly used drugs; 97 per cent of
the respondents claimed they had used
alcohol; 70 per cent smoked cigarettes.

. Study concludes most young males
' smoked marijuana at least once

Almost half , 42 per cent, of those who
used alcohol claimed they had problems
resulting from its use, and 36 per cent of
those who used heroin claimed they had
problems. For the study, problems were
generally defined as affecting the
respondents’ work, health, personal lives
or legal status.

More than 60 per cent of the male
population has, or will try marijuana, the
study indicates. Of those, three-quarters,
or 38 per cent of the total population, will
continue to use the drug.

“There is a danger in making predic-
tions," Voss said. “You are assuming
nothing else is going to happen, when you
really know it will."

Drug use was found to be higher when
subjects lived in large cities, were
unemployed or employed part-time, had
less education and were termed un-
conventional on the basis of marital
history. living arrangements or expressed
attitudes.

Among male college students, drug use
was found to be higher for those majoring
in the social sciences, fine arts and

1

 

humanities.

Data for the study was collected from
October to May 1975 through interviews
with more than 2,500 male subjects whose
names were taken at random from
selective service rolls.

The study is one of four currently sup
ported by NIDA. The other three are in-
vestigating drug use by all populations, by
Vietnam veterans and by male high school
seniors. -

Preliminary findings of the reports were
released in Washington Wednesday.

SCB should try
for beer license

ow many money-making
projects come along that have the
potential to generate enough funds
to say, build a student center?
Selling beer on campus could do
it and, according to Student Center
Board (SCB) Chairwoman
Georgeann Rosenberg, has done it
as Virginia Polytechnic Institute
(VPl).
Without a doubt, selling beer on
campus is a quick way to make a
tot of money ~~whatever the cause.

 

And, recognizing a good thing, the
UK SCB is trying to obtain a beer
license.

But unless the Kentucky At-
torney General decides to define
Kentucky state universities as
"private places,“ the issue will
have to go before the Kentucky
legislature. In other words SCB
members shouldn’t get their hopes
up.

In preparation for the 1976
General Assembly, University
Student Government represen—
tatives met in Bowling Green last
week to discuss lobbying efforts to
lower the drinking age to 18 and to
Permit beer sales or. campuses.
But, since even organized Ken-
tucky student lobbying efforts are
rarely very successful, it would
seem more useful to consider other
types of action in addition to lob-
bying. These strategies could in-
clude petitioning, polling or at-
tempting to enlist the support of
university officials.

At any rate the SCB should be
commended for trying. But in
Kentucky, where about half of the
counties are an alcohol lovers’
desert, obtaining a beer license on
campus is probably a long way off.

 

 

 

 

lnaccuracies

Editor:

Although we think your reporter
made a serious effort to understand
experiential education in her article of
Wednesday, Oct. 1, (Kernel, Students
can gain experience through almost
anything), the article also contains
some misleading inaccuracies.

Because of the way we have all been
taught to think about education, we
assume that ”learning” or ”studying”
have to take place in a classroom, and
that anything else is somehow not the
same. But this is inaccurate. While
some things are best taught by
traditional means and some students
learn best by these means, there are a
vast number of things to be learned
elsewhere, and a large number of
people learn best independently.

The point of an off-campus or ex-
periential learning situation is that
learning can occur in many places and
in many ways, when it is approached
and nurtured as a reflective, or in-
tellectual, endeavor. An educational
experience is therefore an activity
meaningful to the student reflected
upon with the assistance of a faculty
adviser. This happens in scientific labs,
in practica, in independent study
proiects, and in experiential education.
Academic credit is only awarded for
this ”learning,” or "reflection,” and is
not awarded for ”almost anything.” If
supervised properly there should be no

Busing produces
'empty rhetoric'

 

:.By Randal H. lharo

 

 

less ”study” in an off-campus ex-
perience than a classroom although the
nature of the studying, may be dif-
ferent.

The article suggests that the Office
for Experiential Education grants
academic credit. It does not. Based on
the relationship between the student’s
academic program and the off-campus
activity, an academic department or
faculty member supervises the work,
evaluates the learning and grants the
credit. Each credit-granting activity is
planned in advance, obiectives are
written down and agreed to by the in-
structor and student, and the learning
goals are related to the student’s
academic program. In other words, it
should be a structured intellectual
process.

The implications of the article are a
possible perversion of an important but
fragile change in the University. For
too long many students have been
forced into a pattern of courses which
do not always fit their individual
learning styles or obiectives. Some of
these students, who have the desire to
thoughtfully take a hand in shaping
their educations, and who have the rare
impulse to learn independently through
research, independent study, or ex-
periential education, should be en-
couraged; those who wantan easy-way-
out should not.

Listening to the empty rhetoric of
Kentucky politicians on ”busing” is
enough to support the contention that
the quality of debate on this issue is
poor. The two editorials on busing
which appeared in the Kernel (Sept. 8)
did nothing to raise the quality of
debate. In the following comments I
want to offer a critique of both views
and argue that busing is a ”pseudo-
issue“ which has displaced more im-
portant public issues.

The first author’s argument was
summed up in the title: "Pro: Parents’
actions a by-product of a racist
society.” One cannot deny that racism
is involved in the controversy, but the
simplistic perspective of the author
ignores the crucial political function of
racism in Southern politics.

Traditionally it has been a device
utilized by dominant white elites to
maintain their positions of power and
privilege in Southern society. One
example is the use of racism by
Southern industrialists to weaken the
labor movement in the South, thus
maintaining a pool of cheap, politically
impotent workers. This strategy has
also had consequences in terms of
national politics as demonstrated by
the history of the Southern wing of the
Populist movement and Nixon’s
”Southern Strategy.“ ,

In short, the issue of race has been
used to prevent the formation of and to
weaken and destroy, popularly based
political organizations (of necessity bi-
racial in appeal and composition)
which might mount a challenge to the
power of the dominant groups who
establish the maior priorities in a
state’s political system.

The simplistic view of the affluent,
racist, ”white middle class," versusthe
poor blacks flies in the face of reality,
skews the issues and blocks any ef-
fective political alternative.

Indeed, the author’s argument can be
used to justify the use of force. The
author has simply presented us with
moralizing sloganeering bereft of any
hint of a critical political perspective.
There is no mention of the political
exploitation of the busing issue by
demagogues and opportunists such as
Republican gubernational candidate

Robert Gable in Kentucky or Louise
Day Hicks in Boston. The author does
not even hint that the crucial issue of
education in Kentucky lurks at the
periphery of the political arena. If it
were made a central issue there would
be many important questions raised.

Instead the author screams "racism”
while parents yell at guardsmen and
one of the leading coal producers in the
nation remains 48th in per capita ex-
penditures for education. To raise the
issue of education would open questions
about the tax structure and who gets
what in Kentucky. It is an issue which
goes beyond busing and race; it would
be a potential basis for public
mobilization which might ultimately
threaten the structure of economic-
political power and privilege in Ken-
tucky. This is an issue, however, which
has been organized out of the political
arena. The cry of ”racism" is only
another way of keeping it out.

There is notmuch to be said about the
editorial against busing. Basically the
author argues that "equalization of
education and racial integration“ are
laudible goals; it they can be achieved
without disorder, "then do it.” This
vacuous argument is a pitiful attempt
to be ”reasonable.” For example, the
author implies that the goals of busing
are noble, but busing ”will apparently
accomplish neither in Louisville.” Yet
there is not one shred of evidence to
support this. Instead the spectre of
disorder is raised. We should have
learned from the experience of World
War II that the social conservatism
espoused by the author, which places
”order” above such values as equality
and justice, had disastrous con-
sequences. lndeed, it may well
preclude the possibility for a
democratic policy.

In short, the issue is not ”To Bus or
Not to Bus," and we should avoid being
caught on the horns of this dilemna. But
the way between the "horns” is
potentially explosive; it may raise
unpleasant questions which pose a
threat to some, but which must be
raised if any of us are to have a
democratic future.

spectrum

 

 

The 1976 auto models are in the
showrooms, and for the second year in
a row, bigger is not better. Auto makers
no longer appeal to potential buyers
with talk of the extra status, power and
sex appeal accruing to purchasers of
their product. Today the selling points
are fuel economy, low repair costs and
functionality.

 

 

So ends a love affair spanning half a
century. Transformed by the
production line into a commodity fetish
of epic proportions, the American
automobile seemed to symbolize
America’s self-pride and its position at
the apex of world civilization.
American cars were bigger, more
luxurious, more technically advanced
and more powerful than anybody else‘s.
Maybe there were classier cars in the
Rolls Royce, sportier cars in the Aston
Martin and Lamborghini, but the price
of these ma chines restricted them to a
very small market. U.S. autos were
available to almost everybody, and,
cubic inches for dollars, you couldn’t

 

beat the homegrown product.

This reduction in the American auto’s
size strikesan ominouschord, signaling
the end of an era. Above all, the
automobile signified American
freedom, associated with economic
strength wfreedom from want,
freedom from status, of movement, as
in freeway. Just as the size of autos
used to denote opulence, so its reduc-
tion of size signifies dependence as this
country has reached another frontier,
another limitation to its continual
necessary growth. American depen-
dence upon foreign oil has undermined
its global preeminence, stunted the
growth of its most prized industry, and
permanently altered the shape and size
of Americans’ most prized product. For
the first time the US. as a nation is
confronted by a limited vital resource.

Consider the social and cultural
implications of such a development.
Reduced to its functionality and
stripped of psychic options, the
reduction in the auto’s size will have
severe psychological effects. We no
longer havea concrete idea of freedom,
as has been explained. But how about
status. In a classless society where
neurosurgeons are forced to rub
shoulder with plumbers, stockbrokers
with morticians, the automobile offered
an expression of aristocracy, of social
differentiation. It provided a way out of

drab democracy, resisting the forces of
egalitarianism which threatened the

cult of the individual itself.

And for those who were outcasts in
thatclassless society, whose house was
a slum and whose neighborhood a
ghetto, the auto offered a status in-
dependentof occupation. They might be
ashamed of their address, but the auto
transcended address, race and
inequality. in the auto rich and poor
alike strove to create a tiny im—
mawlate environment which fitted the
owner's self image.

But if the auto epitomized luxury and
civilization, it also offered an outlet for
aggression. Consider the names of
yesteryear’s autos —Barracuda,
Stingray, Charger, Cougar and many
more —~all denote violence and all
glorify predatory creatures. The
luxurious inner environment was
combined with formidable power, the
ability to travel faster than any animal,
and for unlimited distances. The auto
allowed man to express his animal
ferocity and his superiority over
animals simultaneously. Automobiles
canalized human aggression through
the right foot and onto the road, and
mercifully away from each other.

Freudians and cynics often main-
tained that the auto seemed to imbue
the owner with added sexual potency.
Aggressive and sexual impulses are
inseparable, they asserted, and the
auto offered substitutive gratification
of the former and greatly improved the

chances of gratifying the latter.

Regrettably, the age of the auto has
passed or is passing, and with it passes
a whole lexicon of symbolic expression.
True, full sized carsare still seen on the
road, but they no longer symbolize
opulence so much asgluttony. Their full
size is a euphemism for overweight. in
an era of diminishing natural resources
Cadillac and its competitors are living
up to their colloquial name: hog. The
predatory type still stalk the highways
as well, but these proud beasts also are
being replaced. Where once auto
makers unveiled a huge machine
dripping with aggression, they now
present an inferior breed. There is
something of the gelding about a Pinto,
little of Vegas abouta Vega, Gremlin is
as malevolent as Edsel and Chevette
sounds like an undergarment.

The outlook for the future is bleak.
We can probably survive the continuing
oil crisis, but whether society will ever
recover from the dislocation of so many
of its fundamental concepts which were
formerly rooted so firmly in the un-
changing nature of the automobile, is
doubtful.

Council to prioritize
graduate programs

(‘ontinued from page 1

Priority rankings are
necessary basically because of a
moratorium placed in 1972 on any
new graduate programs by

(‘PHE, according to CPHE
Executive Assistant Harry
Snyder.

After the state legislature gave
CPHE bmad authority in setting
policy for higher education in—
stitutions, the moratorium was
established to give a chance to
assess graduate programs at
state universities, Snyder said.

Exceptions to the moratorium
are made only when CPHE
considers new graduate
programs essential to a par-
ticular university or the interests
of the state, Snyder said.

Three exceptions have been
made since 1972.

Snyder said the moratorium
and funding limitations have
forced (‘PHE to ask all in-
stitutions to “prioritize”
graduate program proposals if
they have submitted more than
one request.

At a meeting three weeks ago.
the Senate (‘ouncil was confused
about how to assign priority
rankings to graduate programs.

()riginally Senate (‘ouncil
(‘hairman Joseph Krislov wanted

the council to assign priority
rankings immediately. But
several members objected

because of a lack of information
on the programs.

The council directed the
Senate's academic programs
committee and the Graduate
(‘ouncil to study the programs
and make priority ranking
recommendations.

Krislov said Thursday those
recommendations will be con-
sidened by the Senate Council
today. He also said Singletary is
not obligated to follow the
council‘s advice when he submits
priority rankings to CPHE.

Krislov said the confusion
about how to rank graduate
proposals arose because this is
the first time the Senate Council
has had to do so.

The graduate program
proposals in question have
already been approved by the
University Senate and the Board
of Trustees. ()ne program. a
masters in planning for the
(‘ollege of Architecture, has
awaited ('PHE action since
October. 1973.

The other programs are a
philosophy PhD. physical
education PhD and masters
degrees in forestry and teaching
(mathematics ).

Snyder refused to speculate on
whether (‘PHE would approve all
or any of the programs once
priority rankings are assigned.
He also said the moratorium has
lasted longer than intended
because of staff shortages in
studying state graduate
programs.

Astronomers to test

freon in atmosphere

By BRl'(‘E GARDNER
Assistant Managing Editor

The department of physics and
astronomy. in cooperation with
the Battelle Memorial Institute.
will conduct research designed to
test the effects of freon on the
atmosphere.

Research will be conducted at
Battellc's Pacific Northwest
laboratories in Richl' nd. Wash.
by ['K astronomy associate pro»
f'essors Frank (‘lark and Robert
Stokes.

Stokes said they hope to use a
radio telescope at Pacific North-
west to determine if freon, which
is commonly used in aerosol
spray cans. is destroying the
ozone layer in the upper at~
mosphere.

Stokes said the use of the radio
telescope would help them
determine whether the theory
was “valid or not.“

In addition to the research
project, UK also has ties with
Battelle through a program
which enables students and fac—
ulty to utilize equipment at
Pacific Northwest for research,
Stokes said.

Battelle. through the Energy
Research and Development Ag-
ency IERDAL annually offers

college students the chance to
study and research at many
institutions including Battelle.

UK graduate student John
(‘asey studied at Pacific North-
west five weeks this summer “to
help work on some programs
there." (‘asey said.

“I got a lot of experience.” he
said. “It was a good research
atmosphere extremely good."

(‘asey said he also received the
opportunity to work with equip
ment at Pacific Northwest which
is not available at l‘K.

Stokes. who spent time at
Pacific Northwest last summer
along with Clark. said the climate
there makes it ideal for astro~
nomical research. He said the air
there is dry. unlike Kentucky air
which makes observation more
difficult.

Using Battelle facilities, UK
has developed an attachment for
optical telescopes which is now
touring the country. Stokes said.
The instrument. which belongs to
l'K. “is very advanced." he said.

The ERDA research program
is open to students from any US.

program is not limited to grad-
uate students. Stokes said under—
graduates would “have to be very

For this concert, the stage
faced one side of the arena,
making for a more intimate
atmosphere. Though there was
still a problem with feedback.
this arrangement cut down the
echo and helped create a better
show.

Lewis opened the show with his
new band, a seven-piece en-
semble replacing his long-time
trio. The group gave Lewis a
fuller sound and were sur-
prisingly tight for a new band.

Starting off with an up—tempo
funky number highlighting his
new vocal section (Brenda
Mitchell and Morris Stewart).
Lewis and his band showed much
versatility. Their music ranged
from rhythm and blues-oriented
funk to classically-styled pieces
to more traditional jazz, though
the funk dominated.

and Byron Gregory on guitar
were also featured. Bernard

anddrums, respectively) created
a tight bottom for the music.
i A medley from the “Sun
. Goddess" album provided the
i highlight near the end of the set.
“Sun Goddess“. Stevie Wonder’s
"Living for the City" and “Hot
Dawgit“ were performed in a
stunning fashion which was an
improvement on the recorded
versions.

Though they didn‘t return for
an encore. the group’s 75 minute
set was a pleasant musical
surprise for those expecting a
commercial trio.

Return to Forever built on the
mood created by Lewis and had
the audience on their feet during
the opening song.

The group features Chick
Corea on keyboards and syn-
thesizers. Stanley Clark on bass.
Lenny White on drums, and Al
DiMeola on guitar. They
exemplified what a group of
superb musicians working in
harmony could accomplish.

The set began with an extended
