Todd bans staff hires to save money

By Adam Sichko
THE KENTUCKY KERNEL

For the second time in
three years, President Lee
Todd has placed a hiring
freeze on all staff but not
faculty — positions.

About 300 staff positions
# 10 percent of the roughly
more than 3,000 total staff
jobs at UK A are vacant at
any one time, according to
data from UK public rela-
tions. The 2002-03 school
year‘s cut froze more than 50
such jobs.

“We are doing more with a
lot fewer state dollars," Todd
said in an e-mail to faculty
and staff Friday “We must be-
gin preparing for 2005-2006
based on where we stand to-
day 7 not on where our hopes

lie or on what might be in the
future."

The state government au-
tomatically funds all 3,000
“general fund" positions, so
UK possesses the salary mon-
ey for the 300 unfilled posi-
tions said Jay Blanton, execu-
tive director of UK public re-
lations.

In the e-mail, Todd said
his four priorities for UK’s
budget are increasing faculty
salaries. increasing staff
salaries, more adequately cov-
ering the rising costs of
health care and continuing to
fund student scholarships.

“It always causes a lot of
straining on the staff that are
here because positions are
forced to go unfilled," said
Russ Williams, the staff rep-
resentative to the Board of

Trustees. “Of course, there‘s
no less work to do.

“But it's (salary savings)
also about the only way to
save money out of our bud-
get,” Williams. a senior train-
ing specialist with UK Hu-
man Resource Development.
continued.

“When we've taken a $73
million cut in state appropria-
tions over the past three
years, there aren’t many ways
that you can make that up."

It’s too early to estimate
how much the hiring freeze
will save UK, Blanton said.
The Kernel reported that last
year's freeze saved UK be-
tween $12 million and $13 mil-
lion.

UK‘s staff recognize the
budget constraints, but the
extra workload still hurts,

said David Ellis Jr, chairman
of the Staff Senate.

“We understand bud-
getary concerns, but we still
need to get our job done,” El-
lis said. “When they stop hir-
ing. and people there have to
do two the three times the
work, it’s just not good.

“Positions aren't getting
refilled, and people are doing
twice the work," he said. “It
makes it tough on the staff,
but it goes back to the bud—
get.”

Ellis works in the UK ath-
letics ticket office and said his
department is adequately
staffed. But that isn't the case
elsewhere, he said.

“People across the (Staff)
Senate feel like we're in dire
straits, like it gets worse and

 

“The sum total is. there's going
to be a shrinkage in the work
force. but there's not a shrink-
ageintheworktha'thastobe
done."

Salary increases on the way

On Friday, President Lee Todd said
UK's budget will focus on four main points:

Increasing faculty salaries to better compete with benchmark universities
Increasing staff salaries to reward merit-based effort
Better covering the rising costs of health care

Continuing to adequately fund student scholarships

Senate revisits
cheating rule

Proposed policy changes how UK handles
academic offenses; student opinions mixed

I Fall“)!

from the
classroom
to the gallery

By Shannon Mason
THE KENTUCKY mm

A new policy is in the works to better address
cheating and plagiarism offenses. said Bob Gross-
man, chair of the University Senate‘s ad hoc com.
mittee on academic offenses.

The committee has been meeting since early De-
cember to discuss the policy. which focuses mainly
on penalties.

“Bob Grossman has been working with a num-
ber of people to try to come up with a policy that is
fair, that responds to the shortcomings of the pre-
vailing policy. and that creates a balance between
student rights and the faculty‘s responsibilities."
said Senate Chairman Ernie Yanarella.

According to the present policy. the first time a
student is caught cheating or plagiarizing, he or
she receives a minimum penalty of an "E" in the
course. and the penalty is dealt with by the dean of
the respective college.

Grossman said there are "huge problems" with
this policy. Many professors handle punishments
"under the table“ because they consider the cur
rent penalty for first-time offenders too harsh.

“The present policy takes away discretion be-
cause punishments are dealt with at the dean's lev~
e1.“ Grossman said. “It is important for instructors
to have discretion."

Both Grossman and Yanarella said this presents
a series of problems , the least of which being
that professors are going against UK policy.

Another problem is that professors are asking
students not to appeal the lesser punishments.
which could sacrifice the student's innocence.
Grossman said. If students are innocent. they
would either have to go through the appeals
process or end up being "blackmailed" into guilt,
he said.

The committee‘s proposal for the new policy
states that instructors would punish first-time of-
fenders according to their own discretion.

Instead of receiving an "E“ in the course. in-
structors could choose for the student to redo the
assignment. take a zero for the assignment. or
choose an alternative. Grossman said.

If an instructor thought that receiving a failing
grade in the course was appropriate. that recom»
mendation would be sent to the dean of the college
for approval.

Students could still appeal on the basis of inno-
come.

“A lot of times (when students cheat or plagia-
rize). it's a mistake." Grossman said. ”Everybody
makes mistakes."

Some UK students agreed with this concept.

Bench helps

By Nate Alien

FAYE'I'I‘EVILLE. Ark. Every-
thing came down to one shot for UK
and Arkansas.

UK‘s last-minute jumper was
good. while Arkansas‘ lastsecond
shot fell harmlessly to the floor.

Those shots allowed UK (162. 7-0
Southeastern Conference) to hang
on and defeat the Razorbacks 6367
in front of 20.268 fans in Bud Wale
ton Arena.

After UK senior forward Chuck
Hayes missed the front end of a
one-and-one with 5.5 seconds left.
Arkansas guard Eric Ferguson
drove past UK junior guard Patrick
Sparks to launch a deep 3-pointer.
The shot hit the rim but didn‘t fall

as time expired

“i wanted to pass the ball. but I
looked at the shot clock. and there
was one second left and I had to put
the ball up." Ferguson said. “I
thought it looked like it was going
in it felt good when l put it up
but it didn't fall."

UK coach Tubby Smith cringed
that Ferguson ever got that close.

“We didn‘t handle that well be-
cause I thought Ferguson got a pret-
ty good look." Smith said. “We‘ve
got to do a better job of keeping
people in front of him. The only
thing that went wrong for them was
he missed the shot."

Arkansas out rebounded UK 37-
30. committed 13 turnovers to UK‘s
19. sank 16-of-21 free throws to UK‘s
ll-of-16. and held every Wildcat

starter except freshman guard Ra-
jon Rondo under their scoring aver-
ages.

Rondo had 12 points. while UK
junior forward Kelenna Azubuike
led UK with 13 points.

However. UK sophomore for-
ward Bobby Perry and junior guard
Ravi Moss combined for 16 points
Saturday.

Perry scored all of his nine in
the game's final 8:15 including a
critical lay up to give UK a 6661
lead with 1: 03 left

'We have a good deep bench
and that helps us control the tempo
of the game and keep pressure on
people." Smith said.

That lay-up and a Sparks’ 17-
footer with 24.2 seconds left were
UK's final points. just enough to off-

set the Hogs' six-point flurry in the
game‘s final 53 seconds.

“If somebody had told me,“
Heath said of rebounding. free
throws and turnovers. “you are gov
ing to do that and shut down Sparks
and Hayes. I‘d say we would win.
But they‘ve got X-factor guys.

“Moss gets seven. and Bobby
Perry gets nine. You know they are
good players or Kentucky wouldn't
recruit them. but you don't count
on those guys being the guys that
beat you."

Hayes had four points and two
rebounds in 20 minutes, his first
game since breaking his nose at
Tennessee last week. Sparks had
five points on two-for-eight shoot-
ing, but he added a season-high sev-
en assists.

Cats edge past Razorbacks

“We kept our composure. played
under pressure. and a bunch of
guys stepped up today." Azubuike
said. “It was a tough game.
Arkansas is a great team. and we
were able to pull it out.“

Cool Cats rough up Rockets

Chris Johnson
riir xznrucrv mm

UK had been waiting a long time
for this.

The Cool Cats‘ returning players.
when looking over the schedule at
the beginning of the season. circled
the Toledo game as one to look for
ward to after the Rockets knocked
the Cool Cats from the American
Collegiate Hockey Association play-
offs last season.

By sweeping the Rockets 3-0 and
5-1. the Cool Cats exacted some re-
venge in a series between teams that
simply do not like each other.

“They beat us pretty had last
year; then they rubbed our faces in
it." said UK head coach Mike Sos-
nowski. “So a lot of the guys wanted
these games real bad. and it feels a
lot better to be on this side of some
(roughandtumble) games like that."

UK (17-9-1) was never seriously
threatened in either game. as its
depth and speed kept the puck at its
offensive end of the ice for the ma-
jority of both contests.

When the Rockets managed to
wrest the puck from UK. the physi-
cality of the (Tat defensemen as well
as the stellar play of goaltender
Drew Matichak stopped them from
scoring until the second period of
the second game.

"Drew‘s just been doing the same
thing he's done all year." Sosnowski
said. "He has this ability to just
mentally focus...as a coach. you love
that in a goaltender"

Several players on both teams
were suspended for Saturday‘s game
after being kicked out of Friday‘s for
fighting. UK‘s Alex l’oulos and .lohn
Royalty were suspended along with

four or five Toledo players. leaving
the Rocket bench shorthanded.

”They just ran out of gas about
midway through the second period."
Sosnowski said. “We moved around
better with the puck. we kind of fig-
ured out. ‘Hey. if I‘m moving he
can‘t hit me.’ and our legs were bet-
ter (Saturday)."

The fights continued Saturday. as
UK's Jay Theobald and Sean Tugel
were kicked out of the game for mis-
conduct.

“The fights go both ways.“ Sos-
nowski said. "It's been a long season
for them. and we made it longer. so
they're probably pretty frustrated."

”I thought the refs could‘ve
calmed it down.“ said UK assistant
coach Rob Docherty. “But we expect-
ed it to be rough."

No L'K player was suspended for
next weekend's games against Duke
in Durham. Nt‘.

Theobald was thrown out of the
game without even throwing a
punch. as the referees got in be-
tween him and a Toledo player and
ejected them both before anything
happened,

The Toledo player attempted to
go after Theobald once the players
had been ejected and were heading
back to their respective locker
rooms. but Fayette County consta-
bles stopped him before he could get
close to Theobald.

worse every year." Ellis said. “We‘re not
fully staffed. A hiring freeze doesn‘t
help that."

Todd said help to increase staff
salaries is on the way in UK‘s budget.

“Obviously, the Senate's concerned
about that." Ellis said. “We‘ve received
some money in two out of the last three
years (through a 1 percent salary raise
and a one-time bonus). but it‘s just not
enough."

According to a December 2004 pre-
liminary report by the Staff Senate’s ad

hoc salary committee, 1.825 of the 3.000
full time staff members 61 percent
earn less than the “Lexington living
wage" of $21.677 per year.

While faculty salaries are compared
against UK's benchmark institutions.
UK finds its greatest competition for
staff members from the local Lexington
market and the government. Williams
said.

“It‘s a lot easier for private compa-
nies to have higher salaries than us be-
cause they don’t depend on state dollars
to raise them." Williams said.

“We always have recommendations
to increase salary levels. but we get into
the same situation we are in now." he
said. “With state support shrinking. the
money isn’t likely to be there unless
something else changes.“

”I thought we did it (rebounding)
as a team effort A we had Sam Ma-
honey who is our two guard who had
10 boards.“ DeMoss said. “Rebounding
has a little to do with skill and a lot to
do with heart and determination."

Another factor in the win for the
Cats was the improved play of senior
forward Sara Potts. Potts entered the
Cats‘ all-time top-ten scoring list with
her 17-point performance. and she is
now tied for 10th for 3~pointers made
in career in SEC history.

“She (Potts) moved better. and that
is something that we have been em-
phasizing to her. her movement with-
out the hall." DeMoss said. “She was
knocking down midrange shots. and
she was more involved on both ends of
the floor. but especially on the offen~
sive end."

Potts was not the only Cat hot
from outside the are. as sophomore
point guard Angela Phillips was
three-for-four from the 3-point line.

“That kid never ceases to amaze
me. she really stepped up big when we
needed a basket. she had some steals
against their break. four rebounds.
twu offensive rebounds." DeMoss said.

In this situation. the current staff
must do more with less. Williams said.

“The sum total is. there's going to be
a shrinkage in the work force. but
there's not a shrinkage in the work that
has to be done." he said. “Couple that
with one of the largest student bodies
that we've had. and people are going to
feel the' strain."

Todd asked staff members to bear
with him and look to the year 2020 ,
the state legislature’s target date for UK
to be a top20 public institution.

“We will be judged by whether we
sustained our university's march for-
ward. especially when times were tough
and we chose to make progress any-
way." Todd‘s e-mail said.

“It is a mark of a winner and a point
guard that refuses to let this team
lose. At 5-3 and 110 pounds. she has
the heart the size of Lexington."

The often gun—shy Phillips was the
Cats‘ third leading scorer. finishing
with 14 points. She only turned the
ball over once.

“She (Phillips) played with a lot of
poise.“ Walvius said. “The point
guard is the catalyst. and Angela did
that job today for her team.“

The Cats do not play again until
Sunday. when they travel to Georgia to
play a Bulldog team looking for re-
demption.

The Cats don‘t have much time to
savor this much-needed conference
win.

DeMoss said she was going to re-
lax and have a steak dinner tonight.
before she goes back to work tomor-
row preparing for the Bulldogs team
that UK has already upset once this
season.

DeMoss and her Cats ,, who have
already surpassed their win total
from last season , are gearing up for
test in Athens. Ga.

"Beating Georgia twice in one sea-
son." Phillips said. “That sounds
good to me."

Elections in iron

The desperate acts of
terrorists did not stop the
Iraqi people from asserting
their natural right to vote
Sunday for the first time in
half a century. Tragically,
suicide bombings killed 44
people. But at least 72 per-
cent of eligible voters (con-
siderably higher turnout
than last year's U.S. presi-
dential election) turned out
to elect a democratic gov-
ernment.

Even so. one would be
amazed at the political cal-
culations by those who
opposed the war effort.
While a lot of work remains
to be done, a successful elec-
tion and free Iraq will do
more to improve the lives of
Iraqis and global peace than
any amount of appease-
ment could ever do.

Tuition increases likely

Last Monday Student
Government President
Rachel Watts. also a mem-
ber of the UK Board of
Trustees. said a tuition hike
of five to 10 percent was
looking “definite.“ The
increase would be the
fourth straight at UK. This
should come as no surprise
to students because tuition
increase has become some-
thing of a routine here. And
it's doubtful that more gen-
erous appropriations from
the state will have any affect
on the decision.

Citizens begin water petition

Citizens wanting the
local government to pur-
chase Kentucky-American
Water have started a peti-
tion drive to get enough sig-
natures to put the issue on
the ballot as a referendum.
FLOW chairman Foster
Ockerman Jr. said the com-
pany needs 20.000 signa-
tures.

Now those opposed to
government confiscation of
private property should
spread their message.
Condemnation supporters
cannot be given this issue
simply because they‘re will-
ing to ignore the results of
