BOT approves budget, plan for Coldstream Farm

Roselle tells the board that 1988 budget
is the best of a bad financial situation

By C.A. DUANE BONIFER
Editorial Editor

The University of Kentucky Board
of Trustees reluctantly approved a
$614.3 million budget for the 1989 fis-
cal year.

“This is not a very good budget,
but I think it’s probably the best we
could do given the funding (from the
state),” UK President David Roselle
told BOT members. “it does not rep
resent the (financial) commitment
the University needs from the
state."

The state’s contribution, which is
the largest source of revenue, com-
prised 38.7 percent of the Universi-
ty‘s budget, about four percent
lower than what it received in the
previous year.

UK had asked for $95 million from
the state and the Kentucky Council
on Higher Education recommended
that Frankfort give $88 million.
However, when the final version of

UK's athletics
department presents
$13.7 mllllon budget.
See Page 3.

the state budget was passed, the
General Assembly provided only $27
million for UK.

The worst news of the budget is
for University faculty and staff
members.

The budget provides for a two-per-
cent salary increase for UK faculty
and staff. Currently, faculty and
staff salaries are about $3,700 lower
than at benchmark institutions. With
just a twopercent increase, Roselle
said that gap will widen to about $5,-
000, the farthest behind faculty sala-
ries have ever been.

“This puts us in a terrible posi-
tion," Roselle said.

Ray Hornback resigns;

By MATT STAHL
Staff Writer

UK Vice President for University
Relatiors Raymond Homback has
mixed feelings about leaving UK.

“I've been in higher education all
my working days," he said. “But
this is a great challenge; an oppor-
tunity to do something different.”

Hornback, 53, is leaving the Uni-
versityattheendofthemonthto
take a position with The Preston
Gimp inc, a lexington public rela-
tions firm.

Durim his 15 years at UK, Horn-
back was in charge of the Universi-
ty's fund-raising projects and gov-
ernmental and public relation.

instead of hiring a replacement,
Hornbaek’s responsibilities will be
divided between existim adminis-
trators. Terry Mobley, who is in the
office of development, will take over
the fund—raising efforts. Charles
Wethington, who is in diarge of the
community college system, will han-
dle governmental and piblic rela-
tiorli.

Vice President for Administration

Ed Carter said Hornback's high-
level position will not be replaced
because of the slim budget. Carter
said the University is trying to reor-

ling them.

“We have out about a half a mil-
lion (dollars) in vacant positions of
people who lave transferred out or
left the central administration," he
said.

Carter said the money saved in
salaries would not be earmarked for
a specific purpose, but it will be

When UK developed the budget, it

Roselle said the deficit was met

Firm proposes mall,
research facilities

By CA. DUANE BONIFER
Editorial Editor

After a six-month study, the Uni-
versity of Kentucky Board of Trust-
ees approved a plan for the use of
Coldstream Farm that includes a re-
gional mall, a continuing-education
center, research facilities and possi—
ble State magnet high school.

MPC 8: Associates, a Washington
D.C.-based firm, was hired by the
University in December to study
what could be done with the 1,000
acre farm.

According to Myron Curzan of
MPC, Coldstream Farm has “enor~

The proposal includes a 95-acre re-

UK Health Services educates students and serves the health needs of the University community

By THOMAS J. SULLIVAN
Editor in Chief

Editor’s note: This is the first in a
series of articles on the UK student
health services.

“Being a student is a pretty inten-
sive occupation," said Jean Cox,
student health service administra-
tor. “A student who is sick can’t
spend a lot of time being produc-
tive."

Cox’s cure for this problem is the
UKHealth Service.

UK's student health service pro-
vides “a very high-quality service
that‘s very broad based,” said Dr.
Peter Bosomworth, Chancellor of
the UK Medical Center.

But that broad base’s future was
up in the air until Tuesday's Board
of Trustees. The BOT voted to raise
she student health fee from $25 to
$50, ensuring student health would
beth funded next year.

Became of poor funding from the
General Assembly, the University
was forced to cut back on some of
its programs. One of the areas it
chose to cut back was student
health.

In the past, the student health
service was supported on a $1.6 mil-
lion budget — $000,000 from student
fees and $000,000 from the Universi-
ty's general fund.

But this year the monies from the

general fund weren't going to be al-
located to the health service. In-
stead, the University proposed that
the students pay a :50 health fee and
support the health service 100 per—
cent.

If the decision resolution had not
been passed, UK’s student health
services would have been cut in
half,Coxsaid.

“There’s just a whole lot of things
that we take for granted that would
disappear (if the student health
service budget were cut in half),”
Cox said. “Not having a good health
service would make us an exception
to state universities.”

And Bosomworth, after conducting
an informal poll of students, said he
believes students want to continue
the level of service they are current-
ly receiving.

“I think what they (students)
were saying to us is, ‘Don't cut the
scopeofservicetousandifyou
have to raise the fee do it, but don't
cut thescope of service tous,’"
Bosomworth said.

And that “scope” of service is
broad.

“I’ve always called the health
serviceatUKkindofaChevrole,”
Cox said. “You know, it’s a good
serviceable health service. It doesn’t
have lots of frills, we don’t have
somedthefancythimmomelarg-
er tuiiversiliee have), but it’s a

Last year more than 11,000 stu-
dents visited UK’s student health
service. Those students visited the
service 44,775 times, or about 3.82
times each,Coxsaid.

On the average, 270 students visit
the health service each day during
the school year, Cox said.

Most students come to the service
seeking medical or mental care. But
treating students for illnesses isn’t
the only purpose of the health serv-
ice. Cox said.

The health service also offers a
health-education program, Cox said.

”We consider that part of our mis-
sion too, to help people learn how to
take care of themselves,” shesaid.

Mary Brinkman is the health edu-
cation coordinator for UK. Her job
is educating students about their

about, Brinkman said.

The UK Athletic Association
Board of Directors approved a $13.7
million budget June 15 for the 1989
fiscal year.

The budget is the largest athletic
budget in UK’s history and more $4
niillz'lrlylna more than last year's. And it
left ny in the athletic department
smiling.

“We think it’s a very representa-
tive budget of our program," said
Larry Ivy, UK assistant athletic di-
rector for finance. “I’d say for the
University of Kentucky, and in what
we're doing (a strong academic re-
cord and a high standing in the Ber-
nie Moore trophy this year). it’s a
very representative budget.“

The $13,709,100 budget was an in-
crease of about $4.4 million from
last year's $9.3 million budget.

But Ivy cautioned against compar-
ing the two, since there are several
differences.

The biggest difference between
last year’s budget and this year's is

veloper for the regional mall which
will be presented at the August BUT
meeting.

Two developers — Homart and
Crown American Corporation and
The Glimcher Company —— have al-
ready expreesed interest in devel-
oping the area.

The development of the mall
hinges on whether an interchange is
built at Georgetown Road and Inter-
states 64 and 75, Blanton said, be-
came the revenue from the mall will
lead to the development of other
programs.

The Fayette-Urban County Gov-
emment wants to develop that part
of the county, Curzan said, and “if it
is indeed serious about developing
that (area) an interchange will be
needed.”

MPC held several meetings with
small groups of people that included
people from the University, govern-
ment and community.

Curzan said the meetings gave his
group an idea of what the commu-
nity wanted the farm to become.

“I think we are finding the great
significance of this is not only for
the University, but for the commu-
nityasweil,"hesaid.

UK BOT member Larry Forgy,
who was a member of the commit-
tee that studied the future of Colds-
tream, said the proposal keeps UK’s
mission as a land-grant imtitution in
perspective while also improving the
quality of life in Lexington.

“We always were concerned that
Lexington’s ambience was not de-
stroyed,” Forgy said.

Former Kentucky Gov. Albert 8.
"Happy” Chandler, who gave the
farm to UK in the 1m, told board
members to make sure UK is al-
ways in controlof thefarm.

“I want you to see to it that what-
ever decision is made all land stays
in the University‘s cmtrol," he said.
“The time may come when (the
General Assembly) needs it for the
(state’s) general fund and if you're
not awake they'll take it from you."

“It’s a very

Larry Ivy.
UK asst. athletic director
—

the $1.5 million grant the Athletics
Association gave to the University’s
general fund. The money was given
to the general fund after UK Presi-
dent David Roselle asked the Asso-
ciation if it could help out with the
budget crisis the University was fac-
ing last spring.

Another difference between the
two budgets is inflation.

“You would expect (an increase)
every year because of inflation and
the cost of doing business," Ivy said.

And for the first time, the athletic
budget includes that when UK pays
an opponent to play in Common-
wealth Stadium or Rupp Arena, UK
will get that money back when it

travels to that school to play basket-
ball or football.

“In the past years we have netted
out some guarantee expenses and
washout figures where we’ve got to
pay somebody that comes here to
play football, but when we go there
they pay us back," Ivy said. ”This
year is the first time we‘ve pre-
sented a total gross budget."

The budget will generate record
revenues in football and men's bas-
ketball.

Football will bring in $6.9 million
this fall. A $1 charge added to most
UK football tickets, combined with a
$10 surcharge on season tickets will
account for about $560,000.

Football is expected to have an ex-
penditure of $5.4 million.

Men’s basketball is budgeted to
bring in about $3.9 million and have
expenditures of $2,084,000.

Women‘s basketball is expected to
cost about $514,000 and generate
only $15,000 in revenue. But lvy

ball program could eventually be

Kentucky Kernel, Thursday, June 23, 1988 — 3

Athletic Association approves $13.7 million budget for 1989

“As you know, we hired a new
basketball coach (Sharon Fan-
ning),” he said. “Last year was her
first year. I think you need to give
her time to develop her own pro-
gram, to bring in her type players
and hopefully you ’11 see a turn-
around mwomen s basketball.”

UK’s remaining sports — called
non-revenue sports — will generate
$87,500, while costing the Athletics
Department $2,112,485.

Ivy said those sports would re-

ceive more support this year, as
part “of an effort to improve (those
sports) as a whole."

“It's something that’s reﬂected in
the budget this year," he said. “We
have funded all sports to the maxi-
mum limit — the NCAA allowable
limit. That had not been the case in
some of our sports until this budget.
We hope that we’ve eliminated that
disadvantage for the non-revenue
sports by going ahead and funding
them to the maximum limit."
