I'm sure you've all had
one of those days
when everything
pisses you off. In
fact, a conversation
in my Honors class
about government
and anarchy spurred
me to ponder a
campus conquest to
break all the things
that make me mad.
How does one throw
a world-class
university into
academic anarchy?
Here's what I came
up with:

The first step would be
to shut off the
students from all the
eVIls of the world.
Enclose the campus
behind a 12-foot
concrete wall topped
with barbed wire. It
could become known
as the "Dry Zone."

Paint the WT Young
Library matte black
and rename it "The
Hall of Knowledge."
Then allow no one to
enter, because
knowledge is power.

Equrp all the campus
sqmrrels with mini
digital cameras and
give them red arm
bands. Nothing would
be secret with the
secret police group
"Rodenha" on the
prowl.

Force students to eat
mind-numbing
campus food by
requiring those who
live on campus to
pay for it in their
fees.

Stockpile students in
barracks where they
will live in single
small rooms with no
air conditioning. be
forced to share
showers and have
strictly-enforced
limits placed on
opposite sex
interaction. It would
almost decidedly
become know as the
dreaded "Northern
Compound."

Refuse to let the
basketball team play
in the NCAA
tournament. Cite.
"We are Wildcats. We
have nothing to
prove; we are the
dominant force."

Declare war on school
rivals. Burn effigies
of Christian Laettner
in front of the
Classroom Building,
and I believe several
well placed nuclear
devices would allow
the Ohio River to
inundate all of
Louisville.

School spirit will take on
a new meaning when
the newspaper is
read by all, everyone
responds to the rail
and students march
to the ominous tones
of "My Old Kentucky
Home."

ideas for the expansion.

Freshman gets dose of independence

By Andrea Uhde

ASSlSIANI NtViSTDllOR

Jennie Newsome shares a
common characteristic with
3000 people. That number is
15 times the size of her gradu-

and one-third larger
than her hometown. Newsome.
like most of the 3000 UK fresh
men. is dealing with the transi
tion from high school to col
lege.

Every year. a new fresh
man class makes the transition
as they start at the bottom of
the college hierarchy. While
many studenis seem to forget
what it's like to move to a large
university. (’Vt‘l'V'ligl“ has done
it.

The ;,iet‘spective of New

from the small town of Virgie
in Eastern Kentucky. is
distinct.

everyone. The only member of
her immediate family who was
missing was already at lTK.
and her fiance has been a UK
student for two years. "I actu-
ally never thought of another
college because my dad came
here and my brother came
here." she said.

During the weekend of
freshman move-in. Newsome
and her family packed her
clothes and accessories and be-

her psychology degree

l'pon arriving in Lexing
ton. Newsonie moved her stuff
itito her dorm room in BIaZi-r
Hall. where she will share her
freshman experience with her
roommate. who is also her
cousin

Newsome chose to move in
with her cousin because she
was afraid of not getting along
with a randomly assigned
"roomie." She does have high
hopes that she will maintain a
good relationship with her
cousin. even though they don't
have much privacy

"1 don't think we‘ll fight a
lot. We‘re doing fine right now
and we were really close back
home.“ she said.

(‘oming from a town a
small fraction of the size of
lexington does provide serious
contrasts to the ways of living
Newsome is accustomed to.
"Back home. we don‘t see a lot
ofpeople dressed in all black or
with their hair spiked,"

Newsome is also getting
used to the free speech areas
where she uses the ramp to get
to class. "I don‘t know what to
think of it yet. It's the first time
I've actually seen something
like that." she said.

A different world: International student

By Simid‘ele “swim

Amrita l)esai didn’t know
what to expect when she ar
rived on IIK's campus in last
January After all. she had nev-
er been to America before.

l)esai. who is of Indian (le-
scent. was born and raised in
Ndola. Zambia. She heard
about UK through family
friends. and when she found
out that UK has the third-best
pharmacy school in the US.
the decision to come to the
Bluegrass area was finalized
and she began to make plans
for the long trip abroad.

She traveled for about 25
hours before arriving in Lex-
ington. During her journey. she
saw snow for the first time dur-
ing a layover in London. Eng-
land.

“It doesn't snow at all in
Zambia,” she said. “I was so ex-
cited to see the snow."

Weather was the first of
many transitions that l)esai
faced once she left Zambia.

“It was a difficult transition
in the beginning attd every-
thing was so big." she said.

Even with the orientation
frotn the Office of International

tural differences that l)esai no.

“The first thing l missed

food is very different back

A typical meal consists of
rice and curry. vegetable stew
with chapatis (a type of Indian

padams (lndian chips made of

find two local restaurants with
an Indian cuisine. Kashmir and
the India I’alace. both on South

Another big change for l)e-
