UK starts 51 billion campaign

Campaign set to raise $1 billion in donations by 2007;
more than $600 million from donors raised so far

By Sarah Wilmoth
STAFF WRITER

UK officials kicked off a
$1 billion fund-raising cam-
paign Friday at the Lexing-
ton Center Ballroom and
said the effort will build
upon the current base of
gifts and pledges to the uni-
versity.

President Lee Todd.
James Stuckert, the nation-
al campaign chair. and Ter-
ry Mobley. the vice presi-

dent of development, an-
nounced that UK’s nearly
sixyear fund-raising effort
raised $618,670,171. The
original goal was $600 mil-
lion.

Officials hope to raise
an additional $400 million
over the next four years.
bringing the new total goal
to $1 billion.

“This is an extremely
special day for this institu-
tion to celebrate our accom-
plishments,” Todd told UK

officials and supporters at
the annual development
lunch. “This marks the first
time a public institution
has raised this kind of mon-
ey on a first-time capital
campaign."

Former UK President
Charles Wethington began
the first phase of the fund-
raising campaign in 1997.

The campaign received
all of its money from pri-
vate donors. Donations
came from all 50 states and
ranged from 50 cents to mil-
lions of dollars, Todd said.

UK wide receiver Derek Abney (12) catches a 53-yard touchdown pass from guarterbach Jared Lorenzen In the fourth guarter. The touch-
down pass gave Lorenzen the UK record for most career touchdown passes, breaking Tim Couch's previous mark of 74 career TD passes.

ABNEY HELPS UK PILE IT ON

By Jeff Patterson

As Derek Abney raced
down the sideline. everyone
tried to get the monkey off
his back.

Sprinting toward his
eighth career touchdown re-
turn. tying the NCAA
record, Abney followed
blocker Earven Flowers to
the end zone and. for good
measure. Andrew Hopewell
pushed him in during the
third quarter of UK's come
back Saturday against Mis-
sissippi State.

The monkey was off Ab-
ney‘s back and UK's rout was
on.

Trailing 170 late in the
second quarter. UK staged
one of its greatest come-
backs. scoring 42 unan-
swered points in its 4217 vic-
tory over the Mississippi
State Bulldogs in front of
57.141 fans at Commonwealth
Stadium.

Down 17-14 in the third
quarter, Abney had a deci-
sion to make.

"I had a choice to stick
with Earven or to cut in-
side.“ Abney said. “I knew if

I stuck with him, he’d get me
in the end zone. I had anoth-
er guy (Andrew Hopewell)
pushing me from behind. too.
It was definitely a group ef-
fort. I think I get three points
and they each get two."

The touchdown rejuve-
nated UK (4-4. 1-3 Southeast-
ern Conference), giving it a
21-17 lead it would not relin-
quish.

But yet again. UK start-
ed the game sluggish.

After MSU running back
Jerious Norwood rushed for
105 yards in the first quarter,
UK seemed lifeless and unin-
spired. Norwood burst
through the seams in UK’s
defense untouched on a 58-
yard touchdown giving MSU
(2-6. 1-3 SEC) an early 10-0
lead. A Kevin Fant touch-
down pass to Ray Ray
Bivines with 12:30 left in the
half put MSU up 17-0.

As UK has done all sea-
son. it found itself within
striking distance at halftime.
UK fullback Ronald “Rock"
Johnson plowed for a 7-yard
score with 38 seconds left in
the half.

Surplus property
auctions open to
departments, public

CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Hidden in the basement of the dilapidated Reynolds
Building Warehouse No. 1 is a strange sight.

Covering nearly every inch of the creaking floor boards
are shelves of old computers. aisles upon aisles of dusty
bookshelves and slighfly broken desks. piles of lamps and a
hodgepodge of other assorted items that previously adorned
rooms around campus.

All are lined up and primed for buying through the UK
Surplus Auction that occurs about
every two or three months. Items are
also available for sale every Tuesday
for faculty and staff.

However, it's buyers‘ beware at
this auction. employees said.

“It‘s on its last leg by the time we
show it to the public," said Scott
Marksbury. administrative coordina-
tor for the physical plant division.
“The faculty and staff have had a
chance to look at it for about two
months then."

The auction is the last stage in
the cycle of surplus management.

The process begins when a de-
partment decides it no longer has
any use for its equipment and re-
places it.

The old equipment is then given
to the Physical Plant Division. which
takes it to the warehouse. where the
first wave of bidders come every
Tuesday afternoon. Marksbury said.

Purchases made on Tuesdays are
limited to staff and faculty with de-
partment identification and the au-
thorization of their departments stat-
ing they can buy the items they seek.

All the departments at one time
or another may converge on this spot.
but some are frequent visitors.

“You can tell the neediest of de-
partments because many of their
staff (members) are longtime regu-
lars at the surplus warehouse."
Marksbury said. “The art department often needs pieces
and parts for their inanimate projects. It‘s ideal because it's
located beneath their studio."

Garry Bibbs. head of the sculpture department. agreed
that the art department finds the surplus useful.

“Our students go to the auction to scavenge for useful
materials for their projects." he said.

All of the departments benefit from this recycling of
surplus. said Tony Day. the senior accounting manager for
the surplus program.

“The surplus department makes every effort to make
sure we make the program available to the staff and faculty
in the university." he said.

The resale of items has been a valuable resource to the
university for the cash—strapped departments that can't af-
ford new materials. Day said.

After all the items have been searched through for a few
months. an auction is held to get rid of the wares.

These auctions bring in about $8.000 to 310.000 at each
sale. which pays for the surplus program. The rest of the
proceeds go to UK‘s general funds. Day said.

“Sawy bidders descend upon the warehouse already
knowing the market value of the items they seek and bid ac-
cordingly" Day said.

The next auction should be in November. Marksbury
said. Pre-registration for the auctions is available at
www.uky.edu [/eforms , alphaindex. html.

lars are essential in help-
ing UK achieve the status
of a Top-20 public research
university by 2020.

“Nobody‘s backing off
the goal of being a Top-20
school, but we‘re not going
to achieve that status
based on state funding.“ he
said. “While private mon-
ey can't replace public
funding. we have to be
sure that teaching. re-
search and public service
won‘t suffer because of a
lack of funds.“

Todd asked for a mo-
ment of silence during his
speech to honor two of
UK‘s staunchest support-
ers and contributors who
recently died. former UK
President Otis Singletary
and former Gov. Ned
Breathitt.

Todd highlighted some
of UK‘s accomplishments
since the campaign‘s
launch. including record
enrollment in 2003 for un-
dergraduate and graduate
students. gains in black en-
rollment and recruitment
of the “most academically
talented freshman class“
in the school‘s history.

Provost Mike Nietzel
said the success of the
fund-raising campaign
also dramatically in-
creased UK‘s research
funding. UK is now among
the top 30 to 35 schools in
terms of total research
funding.

Funds from the catn-
paign helped UK improve
the quality of its research
activities. Nietzel said.

“We are becoming a
magnet for intellectual tal-
ent from across the coun-
try." he said. “We have a
reputation where the
world looks to us for re-
search findings."

In addition to increas-
ing research funds. the
money raised by the cam~
paign was used to fund
scholarships. academic

programs and Bucks for
Brains. a program that
helps UK recruit and re-
tain top research faculty.

Gifts and pledges to
the university also raised
UK’s endowment from $195
million to $415 million. En-
dowment funds created 58
new chairs and 148 profes~
sorships. bringing the cur-
rent total to 80 chairs and
195 professorships.

The decision to extend
the capital campaign four
more years was based on
the long-term commitment
to UK displayed by donors‘
contributions. Todd said.

Todd said an impor-
tant achievement of the
capital campaign was the
new relationships UK
formed with contributors.

“It brought new people
and investors to the uni-
versity.“ he said. “People
are excited about the mo-
mentum. and everyone
wants to be a part of some-
thing successful."

Mobley said that the
key to the campaign‘s suc-
cess was good communica-
tion between administra-
tors and contributors.

“We articulated our
needs early on and ended
up receiving over 400.000
gifts.“ Mobley said.

Maintaining scholar-
ships will be the continued
campaign's main concern.
followed by funding con-
struction of a new phar-
macy-biology building and
additions to the business
and law colleges. Todd
said.

One of UK‘s top goals
concerning scholarships is
maintenance of the Robin-
son Scholars program.
Mobley said.

“We hope to acquire a
$20 million endowment so
that we can fully fund four
scholarships for each of
the 29 counties." he said.

Planning for the cam-
paign‘s next phase is un-
der way with details to be
revealed at a kickoff event
in the spring of 2004.

The black-tie event
was held to induct 249
new donors into the Fel-
lows Society. which hon-
ors donors who have
contributed or commit-
teél $10,000 or more to
U .

This was the second-
largest total of new fel-
lows inducted in the his-
tory of the society.

The talk of the
evening, however. cen-
tered on the campaign's
success in exceeding its
original goal of $600 mil-
lion and the expansion
of this goal to $1 billion
by 2007.

“UK is the first pub-
lic institution to have its
first fund-raising goal to
be $1 billion." President
Lee Todd said.

Todd recognized
many of UK‘s recent ac-
complishments. such as
the creation of 50 main
chairs and 140 professor-
ships. important re-
search and this year‘s
enrollment of what he
called the best academic
class at UK thus far.

“Why stop now?"
Todd said. “This state is
not going to get a lot
richer during my term
so we have to keep go-
ing."

Other speakers said
the campaign‘s success
was simple.

“I’d like to summa»
rize [it] in three words:
vision. strategy and exe-
cution." said James
Stuckert. chair of the
UK Development Coun-
cil.

Many at the dinner
thought the new goal
was right on target.

Fellow Joe Fink said.

Ken Roberts. dean of
the College of Pharmacy.
said more money is

cility for the college.
ranked consistently as
the third-best College of
Pharmacy in the coun-
try.

“We're in very
cramped spaces, with
faculty scattered,"
Roberts said. “We’ve
grossly outgrown our ex-
isting facility"

Wendy Baldwin, ex-
ecutive vice president
for research. said she
thinks the new goal is a
great idea.

“I think it’s fantastic
and completely appropri-
ate." she said.

Bringing more mon-
ey into UK will help the
university reach its Top-
20 goal. Baldwin said.

"Setting a fund-rais-
ing goal like that is just
another piece of the puz-
zle to help people under-
stand how good UK is.”
she said. “It’s like an un—
dervalued stock."

University Fellow
George Ruschell had a
unique outlook on the
new high goal.

“It's nothing com-
pared to the US. deficit.”
he said.

Others at the event
praised the expanded
campaign goal but ac-
knowledged the difficul-
ties it may face.

“It‘s laudable. It’s ex‘
actly what needs to be
done." said University
Fellow Ron Geoghegan.

Increased private do-
nations will help as the
state cuts funding. he
said.

“The challenge will
be to get through the lull
in the economy." he said.

Fall fashions full of color and combination

By Danielle lenils

STA" IRITEI

When you finally delve
into your winter clothes
stash. you're likely to be
greeted with the smell of
wool and the sight of old
sweaters, uninspired but-
ton-up shirts and too-tight
corduroys you wore in high
school. It might be time to
spice up your closet.

Here are some tips on
how to dress fun. funky and
full of color this fall.

Women's clothing

In women's clothing,
there are many different
hemlines present this fall,
said Emily Rives, manager
of Bella Rose, a women‘s
boutique on Maxwell
Street. This includes the
short mini and the calf-
length skirt, she said.

The pleated cheer-
leader-type skirt has be
come popular, as well as Au-
drey Hepburn style dresses.
Ribbons and sashes as em-
bellishments are also very
popular, Rives said.

Katie Blair, co-owner
and manager of General
Eccentric, a women’s cloth-
ing boutique on the corner
of Woodland Avenue and
Maxwell Street, mentioned
that another trend is skirts
with netting-like material.
called tulle. underneath
them. which makes the
skirts poof out.

Blair said women’s
pants this season are also
shying away from the wide-
leg flared look and are be-
coming straighter and
more tightly-fitted. Tweed
fabrics are very in-style
now for pants, as well as
plaid prints.

In general, color is very
big this season, especially
colors considered typically
feminine. such as pinks and
purples, Blair said.

“Add color you’ll see a
lot of." Blair advised.

This trend is reflected

in long, bright scarves and
bright-colored, funky
gloves that can be worn
every day.

Combining “dressy“
clothes with casual clothes
is another hot trend. “Suit-
ing is very big right now,"
Rives said.

Her examples included
a corduroy jacket with
jeans or a tailored suit jack-
et with jeans.

There are also trends
occurring in women‘s out-
erwear. Blair said she has
been having trouble keep-
ing the fireman-style coat
in stock. The coats are
made with a soft velveteen
fabric and a more feminine
out than their inspiration.

Other popular styles
are coats made with suede
fabrics and fur lining, as
well as the shorter, 1980s-
style jacket also lined with
fur.

Men's clothing

Though men‘s fashions
don't tend to go through the

major trends that women's
fashions do, there are still
some noticeable changes in
this season's menswear.

Gone are the days of
dull grays, browns and
blues for the winter and fall
seasons. “The more color.
the better,“ said Amy Rude-
sill. store manager at the
Express in Fayette Mall.

Jessica Way. assistant
manager at Banana Repub—
lic in Fayette Mall, also
mentioned that brighter.
bolder colors are in style
right now. Way pointed out
the rich red and green col-
ors of some of their latest
scarves as an example of
this trend.

This season. an elevat-
ed sense of style is emerg-
ing in menswear.

“it‘s kind of a 1940s
style. when men dressed up
more often." Way ex-
plained. For example. but-
ton-down shirts with wool
slacks are popular. as well
as dress shirts with jeans
and sports coats with jeans.

Rudesill mentioned that
solid-colored dress shirts
and vertically striped dress
shirts are in style this sea-
son.

For fabrics. Rudesill
said that cashmere is huge
this season, especially in
scarves. gloves and
sweaters. Argyle sweaters
and socks are also in style.
Way said, while denim is
still a mainstay

Boot-cut pants and
jeans continue to be popu-
lar, though there‘s been a
significant decrease in the
popularity of cargo pants.
Rudesill said.

Zip-up pullovers and
sweater and sweatshirt
hoodies are also top sellers
in menswear. “The sporty
look is in." Way said.

This look contributes to
the popularity of the shoe
Way called the “Eurosneak-
er." which is a streamlined,
dressier approach to the
classic American sneaker.

In a game that is played to chart player progress for the
upcoming season. the most impressive Wildcat on the court
also happened to be the only ineligible one.

Junior guard Patrick Sparks led the White team with 23
points in a 77-77 tie in Saturday’s Blue-White Scrimmage at
Memorial Coliseum. The walk-on came off the bench to
make five three-pointers and grab five steals, helping his
squad jump out to a 4024 halftime lead.

Sparks. who played the last two seasons for Western Ken-
tucky University. will have to sit out this year due to an
NCAA rule that forbids transfers from competing in their
first season at a new school.

Sparks said he didn’t approach Saturday’s contest any
differently even though he knew it would be his last opportu-
nity to play in front of UK's fans all year.

“I’m not the biggest, strongest or fastest, but I take it as a
challenge and just compete with all my heart," Sparks said.
“Every time I step on the floor I play like it‘s my last game.
Tonight just happened to be my last game of the year."

Teammates said they expected Sparks to play well.

“Sparks was no surprise to me," senior guard Gerald
Fitch said. “He does that every day in practice and has been
doing it in pickups ever since he got here."

While Sparks shined for the White team. Fitch was the
star for the Blue squad. The returning starter scored 23
points and dished out seven assists while leading his team-
mates in erasing a 16-point halftime deficit. Forward Chuck
Hayes added 22 points and 13 rebounds for the Blue team.

Head coach Tubby Smith said he expected the strong sec—
ond half performances from Fitch and Hayes.

“They‘re supposed to do that," Smith said. “They’ve been
through the wars before. and they were getting beat. They
did what they needed to do to get into the flow of the game."

Going into Saturday’s scrimmage, many of the questions
on fans‘ minds revolved around UK's 7-foot freshman Sha-
gari Alleyne and Lukasz Obrzut. While Obrzut struggled for
much of the night. Alleyne proved to be a force for the Blue
team on both ends of the court. The Bronx. NY, native fin-
ished the game with 15 points. 10 rebounds and three blocked
shots.

Fitch said Alleyne‘s defensive presence will be a huge
factor in the Wildcats‘ success this season.

“He’s a giant down there.“ Fitch said. “Just his presence
alone will intimidate guys. He‘s going to make our defense a
whole lot better when he‘s down there.”

After seeing so many strong plays and performances
during Saturday‘s scrimmage, UK fans seemed ready to stick
around for an extra period. But Smith declared the contest a
draw, thanked the fans for coming and left the court to a
standing ovation.

“We wanted to leave it at that." Smith said after the
game. “We left on a high note. It's not about winning or los-
ing. It‘s about getting better."

up a sweat. He stood alone in
the goal for nearly 90 minutes
without seeing any action.
The UK defense seemed to
make life easy for him.

Buffalo battled a rigid UK
defense Friday night. getting
one shot on goal in UK‘s 2-0
victory on Senior Night at the
UK Soccer Complex.

Gruenebaum earned his
seventh shutout of the season
for UK (104-1. 400 Mid-Amer-
ican Conference). He hasn't al-
lowed a goal in the last 287
minutes of play, dating back to
a goal in the 75th minute in a
2—1 loss at North Carolina on
Oct. 12.

Against Buffalo ( 1~lO-3. 0-
5%) MAC). Gruenebaum had to
find other ways to stay in the
game.

“You always have to keep
yourself in it mentally: and
you do that by communicating
with other players."

can win on any given night. so
every victory we get is very
emotional and hard-fought."

UK jumped out to an early
10 lead in the eighth tninute
when midfielder Joey
Gaworecki intercepted a Buf-
falo pass and drove toward the
left side of the goal. luring
away goalie Daniel Bell and
setting up an open-net shot for
forward Riley O'Neill.

"It was pretty simple,"
O‘Neill said. “Joey gave me a
nice pass between two players
and I put it in the net. My job
is the easy part."

UK struck again in the
24th minute on 3 Thomas
Senecal header off a Jamal
Shteiwi assist.

After leading 20. UK's de»
fense did the rest of the work.

“I think people are under.
standing what we are trying
to do and understanding the
pride we have in our defense.“

In the 72nd minute. Buffa-
lo fired a shot hitting the cross
bar. but UK cleared the ball
out of harm's way.

“When you don't see
many shots, you are waiting
for that one that you have to
be ready for because it is in-
evitable." Gruenebaum said.
“When it came I was screened.
and I got a piece of my hand
on it off the bar."
