UK warns students after rapes reported to Student Affairs

THE KENTUCKY KERNEL

A press release and e-mail advisory sent
out by UK administration yesterday warned
female students to take precautions against
date rape. following three instances of date
gape reported to the Ofﬁce of Student Af-

airs.

Unlike other advisories. these notifica-
tions came from the student affairs ofﬁce —»
no official reports have been filed with UK

“Recently. officials at UK were advised
that a female student had reported being
raped after being given a ‘date rape drug.m
read the release.

Law requires that e-mails or advisories
be sent out when a formal police report is
taken for a rape, said Carol Jordan. director
of the Center for Research on Violence
Against Women at UK.

('il‘his is more than the law requires. she
sai .

“You need to be vigilant: you need to be
cognizant,” said UK spokesman Jay Blanton.
“This is an attempt by our administration to
prevent the worst from happening."

A similar e-mail was sent to students
from Provost Michael Nietzel. Nietzel didn‘t

know of the specific incident and said the e-
mail was more of a precautionary measure,
since none of the incidents were reported to
police.

“I don't know of a rape on campus.” N iet-
zel said. “I think Pat (Terrell, vice president
of student affairs) and others advised this be
sent as a precaution."

Ken Clevidence, acting police chief. con-
ﬁrmed that no reports had been ﬁled.

Terrell said her office received three
third-party reports of rapes within the last
month. The most recent report came within
the past week, although she said she did not
know the exact dates for the rapes and

In an effort to save time
and money. administrators
are closing the UK Computer
Store and sending depart-
ments directly to a few on-
line suppliers for their tech-
nology purchases.

“Right now we're looking
for ways to save money. and
this one was pretty obvious."
said Ben Crutcher. vice presi-
dent of auxiliary services.

The move to online pur-
chasing means that 12 em-
ployees will be out of a job
when the store closes on
June 30. Employees said the
university is making a mis-
take by closing their store.

“I'm afraid that when
people start ordering stuff.
they're not going to have the
contacts in place to get what
they need." store manager
(‘lay Sturgeon said. “Instead
of one place that does it all
for them. each department
will have to do that. And
they're already stretched."

The. store now handles
$12 million in computer pur-
chases for the university and
about $1 million in computer
purchases for faculty and
students.

Administrators said the
new system would make pur-
chasing easier instead of

more difﬁcult.

“We hope to simplify the
process." Crutcher said.
“The idea is to have one ven-
dor for Windows machines
and the same kind of set up
with Mac machines. The idea
is to standardize the prod-
ucts so there will not be a
whole lot of questions.“

If people end up needing
help. they can call the ven-
dors directly be said.

Sturgeon said he sees two
problems with the new plan.
First. no research institution
should be stuck with only
one vendor. he said. And sec-
ond, the university is going
to lose a staff that gives expe

rienced. unbiased advice to
departments and students.

“The larger departments
are prepared to deal with
this." he said. “But it's the
smaller departments and stu-
dents that are going to miss
us.

Shurree Clouse. an Eng-
lish senior who first found
the store in the Peterson Ser-
vice building earlier this
year. said she'll miss the
good service. She bought a
computer and iPod from the
stone on Thursday

“It‘s a shame." she said
about the store closing.
“When it comes to buying a
computer, I’d rather talk to

someone in person. Comput-
ers are just such a big invest-
ment."

Employees said they had
been trying to move the store
to a new location so that
more students could have ac‘
cess to an on-campus tech-
nology store.

“I‘m hoping that the uni-
versity sees a need for this
store." Sturgeon said. “I'd
like to see them change their
minds."

Crutcher said he under-
stands that employees are
worried about losing their
jobs. especially with the re-
cent hiring t't'eeze. but said
this is the best decision for
the university

Administrators hope to
find jobs for the displaced
employees within other uni-
versity departments and will
look for new openings until
the store closes.

Students sued
for ﬁle-sharing

Three unidentified students named;
UK lawyer said suit is a “warning"

By Elizabeth Troutman
THE KENTUCKY mm

townshiviolaﬁons

According to the Motion Picture As-
sociation of American, online motion
picture piracy is the unauthorized
use of copyrighted motion pictures
on the Internet. It is illegal to sell,
trade. lease, distribute, upload for
transmission. transmit or publicly
perform motion pictures online with-
out the consent of the motion pic-
tures' copyright owner.

Three UK students are
facing a civil suit alleging
copyright infringement for
illegal peer-to-peer music
downloads.

The civil suit, which
was filed by the Recording
Industry of America this
week. is part of the music
industry's campaign to
abolish illegal download-
ing on university campus-
es across the country. ac-
cording an RIAA state-
ment.

The RIAA cannot identify the students without subpoe-
naing UK. so the students have not been contacted about this
suit.

‘Fayette County District Court received the complaint
Jan. 27 that said three ”John Does" participated in illegal
peer-to-peer downloading last October. Copyright holders re-
fer to such cases as “John Doe" litigation processes. which
target peer-to-peer downloading activity within university
communities.

The names of the students were not on the complaint be-
cause RIAA can only access their identities through their In-
ternet provider. which is UK. The complaint only lists Inter-
net protocol addresses.

UK lawyers said they expect a subpoena from the RIAA
to access the identity of the defendants. Associate General
Counselor Katherine Adams said UK's lawyers plan to care-
fully review the subpoena before providing the students'
identities.

“What they (the RIAA) are saying is that this is copy-
right infringement. and. in fact. they‘re right." she said.

This is the first suit brought against a UK student that
Adams was aware of. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act
of 1998 protects Internet providers from being held responsi-
ble for illegal activity:

Adams said it is unfortunate if the three defendants
were aware of the ramiﬁcations of illegal peer-to-peer down-
loading. Past RIAA litigations suits around the country have
resulted in settlements of $6.000. she said. Copyright suits
have been ﬁled against people as young as 13 years old.

“It is a statement." she said of the RIAA. "It is a warning
sign. They are trying to make a big splash.

“They require a settlement; they are not content with
just making a statement. They are making a terrible splash
in people‘s lives.“

The group of recording companies that filed the com»
plaint includes Warner Bros. Records Inc.. UMG Recordings.
BMG Music. Capitol Records Inc. and Song BMG Music En-
tertainment. Sixty-eight copyright suits have been filed

Students speak out
about new lawsuits

By Dariush Shafa
his KENTUCKV mm

Though UK was named in a lawsuit against illegal fileshar
ing. some students said they were aware of the consequences.
but still taking the technological route to work under the radar.

“I use a service not recognized by the RIAA (Recording In-
dustry Association of America). and I don't share (my files).“
said philosophy freshman Eric Lanham. “It is illegal. so you
can‘t really complain."

Other students said they have been affected by the change
since the lawsuits began.

“I used to (download) a lot but not as much any more." said
physical therapy sophomore Kari Kernen. “They (ﬁle sharing
services) don‘t Work as good as they used to."

Though downloading has become more difﬁcult. Kernen
said she would continue to download because music prices are
so high through other outlets.

“I think they ask for outrageous amounts. It's outrageous
what it costs students." she said. "I think if they didn't charge
ridiculous amounts for the download sites or for CDs. it would.
n't be such a problem."

Other students draw a line between what they do and what
they believe is wrong.

"I don‘t see a problem with downloading for yourself," said
English senior Beth Jenkins. who said she is against down-

Case in point: Here‘s an
actual transcript of what it
sounded like.

“Yeah. Wow. Right. You‘re

God. that would be awesome.
Mm-hmm. Right. Yep."

This carried on for all of
seven minutes and nine sec-
onds. Now there‘s no way the
person on the other end is
saying anything differently.
because this is all I ever hear
women say when they‘re
talking on the phone.

I'm sure another male
was within earshot of the
friend she was talking to.
hearing the same exact con-
versation.

“That sounds awesome.
Nuh-uh. Right. Yep. Oh. this
is most exciting. That is very
exciting."

Yes. it‘s quite thrilling.

Every time I hear her talk
on the phone. it‘s the same
thing. How is any communi-

end talking about a wide ar-
ray of shoes. dresses and
makeup? Are they talking
about world peace?

Mm-hmm. Right. Yep.

Now, women are very ca-
pable of carrying on ex-
tremely intelligent conversa-
tions. I know because they‘re
smarter than me. I’m usually
the one who sits quietly be-
cause their intelligence is be-
yond my comprehension. So
I occasionally mutter. “Yeah.
Wow. Really?!“

Females are much
smarter than males. That's
why things that bother men
do not bother women.

For instance. I might be
highly concerned about the
dwindling supply of soda in
the fridge or the war on ter-
ror. However. unless it inter-
rupts “Days of our Lives.“
this is of no concern to
women.

It‘s not because they‘re ig-
norant of the situation 1
they are above it. They don‘t
worry about it. It doesn‘t af-
fect them.

Women have discovered
how to embrace the finer
things in life and not worry
about the state of the world.

Men. on the other hand.
have discovered how to turn
life‘s niceties and g0 ape over
them.

Case in point: Last sum-
mer I was grilling out on my
girlfriend‘s back patio. She
was on the phone. chatting
with a friend. Somehow I
managed to not only light the

grill. but also create an infer-
no that would have engulfed
the entire neighborhood.

I freaked out.

"Yeah. Wow. Right. You’re
kidding! Mm-hmm. Oh. my
God. that would be awesome
A- hold on a second.“

She ran over. opened the
grill. I blinked once or twice
and the fire was tamed.

"Right. Yep. Oh. this is
most exciting."

So while women may not
be talking about much.
they're very much in control.

Unfortunately, I haven‘t
figured out how to ignore
trivial things that don‘t real-
ly affect me. This is why men
are pretty much unable to
control anything.

Women are excellent mul-
titaskers. while I can‘t watch
TV and eat crackers on the
sofa without leaving it look-
ing like a four-year—old was
there.

This is why men turn
general household repairs
into a three-day “Trading
Spaces“ episode.

We make things too com-
plicated. If men invented the
wheel. women probably
showed them how to use it.

Now if I could only get
the crumbs out of this key-
board and put out my
kitchen ﬁre. I could move on
to more important things.

delivers an admirably woven
story. It would have been easy
for Hotel Rwanda to become
bogged down in historical do

West and the IN for their in-
action.

Instead, all of these ele

against each other. hinted at
in the background of what is
essentially a personal story of
courage and love of family
and humanity in the face of
what seeks to remove them
from humanity.
