L'K remained 35th this year among
the nations ()0 public research universi—
ties in tlte mnking system UK created
two years ago to measure its top-20
progress,

"We need to move quickly. We
need to increase the pace." said UK
President Lee Todd. "But we‘re in a
marathon. one whose end remains 13
years away."

The goal of UK’s Top 20 Business
Plan is for L'K to become one of the
top—20 public research institutions in

the United States by 2030. The busi—
ness plan defines the measurement sys-
tem UK uses to compare itself to other
colleges.

In the 2006-07 rankings. UK fell
from 49th to 54th in undergraduate ed-
ucation and rose from 26111 to 24th in
research. The university also increased
from 34th to Klst in graduate education
and declined from 37th to 39th in facul—
ty recognition.

Todd said there is no set numerical
goal for UK‘s movement in the rank
ings next year. Instead he said his goal

for us to continue to improve and
move toward the Top 20.

UK will focus on faculty hiritig and
lowering student-faculty ratios to meet
top»20 goals. Todd said. which will de-
pend largely on funding from the state
legislature.

Next February. UK will ask the
Kentucky legislature for $20 million in
general funds for both 2008 and 2009.
The money will first go to two major
projects. a S l00 million business school
and a $200 million research building.

The new business building will be
in the employee parking lot next to

pleted in 2010 or 20] l.

The Gatton Business and Econom-
ics Building will be turned into class~
room and office space The reason for
the move is that the Cratton Building
lacks the technology and space for a
business school. said UK spokesman
Jay Blanton.

"It is just not equipped for a mod-
ent business school." Blanton said.

The $200 million research building
will be on South Limestone Street. next
to the new College of Pharmacy build—

Residents
angry with
student
neighbors

By Stephanigflgg

news®kykernelcom

()ver I00 people crowded into South—
side Church of Christ yesterday to discuss
recurring destructive behavior. trash and
parking problems in neighborhoods
where UK students live.

Many said the problems peaked last
Saturday after UK‘s‘ football win over the
University of Loursville. A couch was set
on fire. one house was condemned and
around 40 citations were issued to proper-
ty owners in the neighborhood around
Elizabeth Street.

The rambunctious events of Saturday
night were not the cause of the meeting.
but they did help emphasize why the
meeting was organized. said Mayor Jim
New berry.

“(The meeting) has been scheduled
now for several weeks. if not a month."
New'berry said. “However. I didn’t realize
when we scheduled this how timely it
was going to prove to be."

Along with the mayor. several city of—
ficials. neighborhood residents and land—
lords were present.

Lisa Higgms-Hord. assistant vice
president for community engagement.
was also present representing UK.

Rental problems. traffic. parking.
code enforcement and problems with po-
lice were among the issues discussed.
Residents were also concerned that the
problems wouldn‘t get better with UK's
Top 20 Business Plan calling for increas-
ing enrollment by 7.000 students.

"Neighborhoods are made up of stu-
dents and residents." said Anne Marie
Stamaiiadis. president of Seven Parks As»
sociations. a neighborhood association.
and coordinator of the meeting. “We all
ha\c to tind a way to live together with
our different lifestyles.‘

Over the last several years. police
have grown familiar w ith State Street and
Ir'li/abeth Street. as well as the surround»
on; neighborhood where many students
live. while issuing citations for trash. de-
bris and noise.

Speaker: First Amendment strained

Giles praised the Internet as
a haven for free speech and the
flow of information. but said it
is the public‘s responsibility to
use it wisely.

“While it is the wild west on
the web. it does come with cer-
tain responsibilities." he said.
“We have an obligation to use it
in a measured. responsible and
appropriate way."

Giles proclaimed his support
for the Free How of Information
Act as a way of protecting the
press. The act would grant re-
porters more protection in feder-
al corms from inquiries and sub-
poenas. He said this protection
is sorely needed. particularly
when dealing with sources that
request confidentiality.

ANATOMY
OF A
BREAKDOWN

‘I'Iie DiSI-i

Backstage drinking,
a fight minutes from
preshow, skipping
rehearsals. How
Britney Spears
gambled everything
in Vegas —- and lost

3‘! “919.92!

For any star. an MTV video
Music Awards opening act
would be cause for anxiety. But
for Britney Spears w whose star
has taniished since her infamous
Madonna liplock in 2003 7 the
pressure proved too much on
September 9. Shortly before the
bump-and—stumble lip-sync of
“Gimme More" on the stage of
the Pearl theater in Vegas'
Palms. sources tell Us the singer
was drinking alcohol backstage
to cairn her jitters. “She‘d had a
few. says a backstage source.
"She seemed out of it."

Another source reveals that
Spears ended up doing her own
hair after abruptly dismissing
hairstylist Ken Paves (Jessica
Simpson‘s go-to glam guy) just
30 minutes before she took the
stage. “Ken was in the middle of
doing her hair. and she just said.
'You're really annoying me! Get
out.” says the source. (Paves
gave Us a more polite version:
“I did go to Las Vegas to work
with Britney. However. once
there. I made the professional
decision not to do her hair for
the VMAs."l

Yet another backstage staffer

gives a different account. “She
didn't drink at all," says this
source. “There were creative
differences with the hair guy.
and he left. That was stressful.
She was honestly fine up to the
point when she went on stage.
Then her nerves must have got—
ten to her." Topping it all off. a
third source adds. Spears re—
fused to use a fashion stylist and
dressed herself.

It all added up to one perfect
storm. .As Spears. 25. per—
formed. people backstage
laughed. She was also able to
see video of herself throughout
the auditorium. says the back—
stage source: “She flipped out.
She came running off the stage.
yelling ‘Oh. my God. I looked
like a fat pig! I looked like a fat
pig.‘ She was inconsolable."

The humiliation was all the
more crushing because she
seemed to have a winning hand
heading into Vegas. Tracks
leaked from her upcoming al—
bum won over bloggers: talk
spread of a jaw-dropping collab-
oration with magician fling
Criss Angel: and MTV‘s endless
promotion fanned flames of an-
ticipation. Spears herself told Us
after a September 5 tanning ses—
sion that she was excited for the
show. and all week her peers
had been equally effusive. ”God
bless her. I hope she makes a
huge comeback." Mary J. Blige
told Us. Eve. sounding like a
nervous parent. echoed: “I just
hope she does Well. She needs
to do well."

Alas. when the singer real-
ized she bombed in front of the
closest thing she has to a home-
town crowd. a source backstage

says Spears was “crying badly.
She's devastated. She was really
nervous and knows she screwed
up."Amid all the positive buzz
and Hollywood good will.
Spears let the chance slip away.

Too Much Partying

The day before the show.
Spears‘ best pal. Alli Sims. told
Us the two were in the midst of
what she termed a "girls‘ week-
end" in Vegas. “We‘ve just been
hanging out in the room. and we
have a little pool. Seriously laid-
back. We‘re good girls."

Laid—back? lt‘s hardly par
for the course when you‘re the
VMA opener. In fact. Spears'
former choreographer Jamie
King tells Us two weeks of ded—
icated rehearsals is the mini-
mum for a gig like this. and
asks. “Who in her camp is look-
ing out for her?"

Instead. Spears put partying
ahead of preparation on her list
of priorities, As she approached
crunch time on September 4. she
was four hours late for rehearsal.
says a source. then skipped the
next night‘s scheduled run-
through. And after touching
down in Vegas on September 7.
she immediately latched on to
Sean “Diddy" Combs as her en-
trZe to the VMA party scene.
“She knew his parties were go-
ing to be big.“ says a Diddy pal.
“She wanted to go out to the ‘in'
places."

Mission accomplished. After
her dancers rehearsed without her
for three hours September 7.
Spears hit the clubs hard — chug-
ging champagne at Body English
until Angel showed up to whisk
her 011' to club Pure at 2 am.

 Ensemble dances through history of step

By Wesley Robinson

What started as a teaching
internship in Africa turned into a
I-l-year innovatne dance re\or
lution.

Brian Williams completed
his dream after returning from
his internship in Lesotho and
founding Step Afrika in I‘l‘H.
During his time in Africa.
Williams traded and merged the
Gumboot dance of South
African miners and the steps of
his frateniity.

His vision is stepping to the
Singletary Center's stage tonight
at 8.

Step Afrika. based out of

dance company dedicated to the
tradition of stepping. said (iiani

This history includes delv—

ties Board and the African Stu
dent Association.

SAB‘s Multicultural Affairs
Program Director. Bryan
Kennedy. a broadcast Journalism
sophomore and Kentucky Ker—
nel staffer. is excited to bring
Step Afrika to campus and
hopes it will not only “give a
taste of a different culture." but
also shed more light on the
Greek step show in ()ctobcr.

[TK's Omega Psi Phi fratemr
ty' chapter will step before the Step
Afrika performers take the stage.

James Ff‘dllCl‘. Omega Psi
Phi President and agricultural
biotechnology senior. said he is
eager to learn more history on
stepping beyond his fraternity ‘s
stepping traditions because. as
he said. "if you stand for some
thing you should know what
you are standing for."

protection for whistleblowers."
he said. “But where does that
leave the reporter on that?

”When faced with a source
requesting confidentiality. re
porters often promise it without
realizing how difficult the
promise is to keep." he added.
“Reporters need to promise a
process of how they ‘re going to
identify someone."

When asked whether or not
a shield law for reporters would
ever happen. which would pro-
tect reporters from being forced
to turn over anonyiiious sources.
Giles sounded optimistic.

"I think c\entually a shield
law will happen." he said. " The
sticking point has been on the
definition oi ”youriialist.‘ "

Giles was adamant about the
important role the media plays
in society. and he implied that
the media would play an even
larger role in the future

“Media is a very important
check on what gov ernmcnt and
pmate corporations he
said.

(ille said the change back
to private ownership for several
newspapers around the country
is a step in the right direction.
He ga\e two e\amples ol The
Philadelphia Inquirer. where he
began his professional career.
and the “all Street Journal.
which was recently bought by
the business tycoon Rupert .\llll'
doch. Murdoch has promised not
to interfere in the newsroom.

“We can hope that recent
events are a harbinger of good
things to come." he said,
