ll. Senate votes to proteetgay couples

By Charla: Shumaltar
Staff Writer

The University Senate
approved a resolution Monday
opposing the passage of three bills
by the Kentucky Legislature that
would exclude sexual minorities
from the equal treatment afforded
heterosexuals in marriage and in
irotection under domestic vio-
lence laws.

The Senate’s decision will
guarantee faculty, staff and
administrators who are in a same—
sex tnarria e the same rights as
people in aieterosexual marriage.

Jim Applegate, chairman of the
Senate Council, said it is the sen-

ate’s “obli ation” to take a stand
against po icies that may pose a
threat to students, faculty and
administrators.

“These bills would ensure
equal treatment for students, fac-
ulty and staff beyond sexual orien-
tation," said Melanie Cruz, presi-
dent of the Student Government
Association and senate member.

“More and tnore institutions
are realizing that recruiting the
best faculty, administrators, staff
and students requires that they
need to be comfortable places for
gay faculty, administrators, staff
and students," said joan Callahan,
a philosophy professor who pro-
posed the resolution.

The bills ranged from the
seclusion of same—sex couples in
protection frotn domestic violence
to recognition of the existence of a
same-sex marriage, erfortned in
the state or elsew ere. Senate
members passed these laws
because they said it would unfairly
burden members of the University
community.

“The Senate’s going on record
in opposing these bills is very
good for UK’s reputation as an
institution, which takes the inter—
est and fair treatment for all memo
bers of the University community
seriously," Callahan said. “This
not only makes the institution an
attractive place for a number of

people who are already here, it
makes it an attractive place for
people to come to."

The first bill, proposed by Rep.
jim Bruce, would amend existing
Kentucky Revised Statutes to void
same—sex marriages, keeps Ken‘
tucky from recognizing these
marriages outside the state and
limits the word “marriage" to a
relationship between two people
of the same sex, according to the
Senate proposal.

The second bill, by Rep. Shel-
don Baugh. would prohibit same—
sex marriages in Kentucky and
tnake invalid a same—sex marriage
between a Kentucky resident and
one who lives in a another state.

The third, by Sen. Tim Philpot,
would not afford the same protec—
tion from domestic violence to
same-sex couples as afforded to

The proposed bills would
interfere with issues dealing with
inclusion for individuals into the
University environment. The rea—
sons for the Senate passing the
proposal were to insure sexual
minorities the satne rights as racial
minorities.

“Laws which require that sexu-
al minorities are to be precluded
frotn equal treatment with hetero—
sexuals have an important nega—
tive impact on tttetnbers of the
University conununity," Callahan
said.

“liveryone uho comes here has
an equal right to an emtronment
that supports his or her learning."
she said. “This is why it so impor-
tant to black students that [lie
L'ntversity address racism.

“Racism creates .t hostile envi—
ronment that interferes with the
learning ol students who are stillv
iect to it." Callahan said. “I lomo~
phobia interferes m iust the same
way."

Callahan said the reason she
presented the proposals
because many ofthe Senate metn~
bers were unaware ofthc bills.

The family of Chris Maier is
working with the Theater
Department to establish a
memorial scholarship fund in his
memory.

After his death Labor Day
weekend, Maier's family set tip a
memorial fund to benefit the the-
ater department. An outpouring
of donations prompted a fellow
student to suggest turning the
fund into a memorial scholarship
for theater students.

“\\'e have raised about $3,000
so far," said Russjones, chairman
of the theater department. “We
need to raise at least $5,000 to
actually establish the scholar-
ship."

jones said he plans to send
out a campuswide mailing to
solicit donations at the begin-
ning of next semester, and he
thinks the department will be
able to raise $10,000 for the
scholarship.

“it will be great ifwe can raise
$10,000, because then we will be
able to give a larger award to the
scholarship recipients," Jones
said.

Once the department is fin-
ished raising the money, it will be
placed into an account. The inter—
est will be used to pay the scholar-

’Tis the season for giving,
and residents of Holmes Hall
are showin their generosity
toward the fess fortunate.

Hall Director David Mast
said he and two friends came
u with the idea to collect for

e needy.

“I got on the intercom
and told everyone I’d sing
Christmas carols every hour
on the hour to remind them
to donate,” Mast said. “I’m

sure part of the reason we

had so many donations was
because they didn’t want to
hear me sing.”
W The hall collected for an
Ii’nderprivileged ll-year-
md boy named Leroy. Mast
id be got the boy’s name

charity. He then posted a
‘rge si n with a can under—
iicath t at read “Money for

lecting for Leroy has shown

this hall has a great capacity
for giving,” Welsh said.

Matt Springer, a Holmes

hall resident, said collecting

for Leroy made everyone
feel like they were raising
money to get gifts for a
friend.

“Everyone in this hall
treats each other like broth—
ers," S ringer said. “Vl'e are
kind 0 like a mini-fraternitv,
and Leroy was our litt e
brother.”

He also said it is wrong
for people not to be giving
during the holiday season,
and this offered the residents
a chance to do something
charitable without wander-
ing too far from home.

“Getting without giving is
like chewing without swal-
lowing —— it's disgusting,”
Springer said.

Springer attributes the
success of the collection and
other responsiveness to char-
ities to 00d leadership. He
said the all director and res-
ident advisers are hi hly
motivated, and they help
everyone get involved.

“We are up for any task
the hall director gives us," he
said.

Leadership.

it is defined by \Nebster's Dictionary as
“the capacity to lead,” but probably should
have had the name Dr. james \V.
Holsinger,]r., next to it.

Holsinger, chancellor of the Chan-
dler Medical Center, has displayed an
uncanny knack for directing others
throughout his life, but now must take
on what may be his biggest challenge
yet: leading the Asbury Theological
Seminary in its attempt to create a new
campus in Orlando.

Holsinger is no stranger to building
and expanding projects; in fact, he sai it's
what drives him each day.

He served as a top assistant to former
Chief of Staff Colin Powell during the
l99l Persian GulfVVar. Holsin er was also
intimatel involved in the rebui ding of the
modern (Tinned States Army after the Viet~
nam War, the building of two new VA hos-
pitals while he was chief medical director in
the Department of Veterans Affairs, the

the government, and the expansion of the
Chandler Medical Center anti its research
facilities.

“I tend to gravitate to organizations
when they are in a building and expanding
state—of—mind," llolsinger said. “Maybe it‘s
just chance, btit it has happened every
where l have been. I really enjoy
watching things grow."

Asbury will be no exception.

After being elected recently
to a three-year term as chairman
of Asbury ’l‘heological Semi-
narv's Board of 'I‘rustecs,
l'lolsinger will be in work on
Asbury s hopes o founding a
new campus in Florida to extend
the studies and research facilities of Asbury
and the Methodist religion.

Maxie l). Dunnam, president of Asburv

be the distinguished leader who Asbury
needs to tnove into the 20th century.

The water tnay seem like a cold
place to be this time of year.

That's not the case if you’re a
member of the UK women's swim
team. Their hot streak is likely
setting the pool temperature near
hot [111) levels.

The women's swimming and
diving teams posted wins over
Arkansas last Friday for the swim—
ming team's seventh straight win.
The women totaled 139 points to
Arkansas' 108.

UK received huge contributions
from its underclassmen. Freshman
Carrie Knoeber finished in first
place in the one meter diving coin—
petition. Freshman Melissa ()lson
placed first in the 1000 freestyle,
and sophomore Jennifer Clifford
finished first in the 100 and 200
breaststroke and helped the 200
medley relay team capture first.

“Swimming is sometimes
thought of as an individual sport
and it's fun to have certain events
where you’re swimming as a team
more than just compiling your
score," Clifford said.

()lson usually swims the 200
freestyle, 200 backstroke and the
200 breaststroke, but competed in
the 40 lap. 1.000—meter freestyle in
Arkansas. Even though she doesn‘t
swim the 1,000-meter often, she
considers herselfa distance swim-
mer — and for good reason. She
finished first with a time of
10:02.10, more than 48 seconds
better than Vicki \Vattles, the sec‘
ond-place finisher for Arkansas.

can swim the 1,000 freestyle bet-
ter than 1 can swim the 50
freestyle," Olson said.

“1 can't swim the 50
(freestyle),” she added, laughing.

She hasn't let that slow her
down. Olson has won at least one
of the events she has swatn in at
every meet this year.

And the upperclasstnen tnade
sure the underclassmen didn’t
have all the fun.

junior Rachel Komisarz has
compiled a winning streak as long
as ()lson‘s by finishing first in the
50 freestyle and the 100 butterfly
in Arkansas. Sophomore Annabel
Kosten, Olson and sophomore
Kassidy Gala also finished in the
top four, in that order, but none
of them had their top four times
go toward UK’s final score.

The swimmers weren’t the
only ones seeing success.

Knoeber’s score of 270.525 on
the one meter diving board was
8.25 points better than second
place finisher Christa Nykaway
from Arkansas. junior Christy
Soulakis finished fourth on the one
meter board and second on the
three-meter board. Even though
Soulakis did not finish first, like
she did on the platform two weeks
earlier in lndiana, she was satisfied
with her performance.

“I was happy for the most
part," Soulakis said. “It wasn’t my
best performance ever, but I did
some good things.”

Knoeber contributes part of her
success to the support of Soulakis
and senior diver Beth Leakec.

“'li‘hey’ve definitely supported
me,“ Knoeber said. “Even just

watching them in practice has

Soulakis realizes her additional
role ofpreparing Knoeber and fel—
low freshman Sarah Fields for col-
lege competition.

“11's hard to come in here your
freshman year,” Soulakis said.
“There is a big change in the pro—

to this program. \Ve make sure

team."

The diving team takes time off
from competition until jam. 7.
when they spend a week in Geor—
gia at the All—American Diving
Meet. The swimmer's next meet is

“I’m looking forward to it.”

BUFFALO, N.Y. —]effShep—
pard matched a career high with 21
points and No. 4 UK overwhelmed
Canisius with its full-court defense
en route to a 81—54 victory yester—
day night.

Sheppard scored 10 points in
the first six minutes of the second
half as the \\'ildcats (7-1) rolled to
their fifth straight victory and pre-
pared for a meeting with No. 24
Georgia Tech this weekend.

The Cats’ tnan—to-man defense
was too much for Canisius, which
plays in the Metro Atlantic Athlet—
ic Conference. The Golden
Griffins had problems bringing
the ball past half court and strug—
gled to score when they did.

Allen l‘idwards added 1-1 points

for UK, which went to its bench
for tnost of the second half. Nazr
Mohammed, the Southeastern
Conference player of the week,
had 11 points. Mike McCarthy
and jamie Cammaert each had
nine points for Canisius.

UK was coming off victories
over lndiana and Clemson going
into the game and wanted to make
sure it didn't have a letdown
against Canisius, which had won
four straight.

The \Vildcats ended any
chance for an upset early.

The \Vildcats had a 10-point
lead in the first 12 minutes and
controlled the tempo before tak-
ing a 39-25 lead at halftime. They
were never really threatened in
the second half. Fdwards‘ layup
with 5:57 remaining gave the Cats

its biggest lead at 71-36.

The \Vildcats took advantage
of their size in the lane and over—
whelmed the Golden Griffins by
getting easy baskets.

Mohanuned established hints
self for a third straight game and
scored nine points in the first 20
tninutes, most coming in the lane
off rebounds.

Canisius closed to 23-18 on
Mike .\1cCarthy's 3-pointer with
6:35 left in the first half. but UK
answered with eight straight
points before .Vlohanuned's tip
made it 33-20 and set the tone for
the remainder of the game.

Canisius paid L'K $200,000 for
the home-and-home series with
the \Vildcats. UK won by 23
points last year at Rupp Arena.

FAYFflVl‘FVll.Ll’., Ark. —
Two decades after telling Bear
Bryant that his dream was to one
day coach Arkansas” football team,
Houston Nutt returned to his
home state yesterday as coach of
the Razorbacks.

“Dreams do come true, and
this has been my dream, to stand
up here in front of you with a
Razorback helmet," Nutt said,
putting his hand on football head-
gear at a news conference at the
university‘s basketball arena.

Nutt accepted the job after the

v

top spot at Arkansas

Razorbacks failed to woo Ole Miss
coach Tommy 'l‘ubenille. Nutt will
make around $500,000 a year, not
including performance incentives.

Nutt coached Boise State to a
4-7 record this year after leading
Murray State to a 22-3 mark in
the two previous seasons.

As the Razorbacks' fifth coach
in nine years, Nutt will try to right
a pro ram that has lost games and
fans t roughout the decade.

Arkansas is 38-51-2 in the
1990s and hasn't been to a major
bowl since the Cotton Bowl after
the 198‘) season. Average home

attendance this decade has been as
low as 44,551 in 1996. 111 198‘),
the Razorbacks drew 51,138 on
average. 1
“1 can promise you this, 1'“ go
from daylight all the way to
exhaustion to make this the best

said. “I can‘t wait to get started."
Moments later, Razorback fans
in the room erupted into a \Vtmd

By Jay G. Tate
Sporty Editor

Though the UK volleyball
team’s season lasted four months, it
took only 19 days to determine just
how far this year's squad would go.

After a torrid 8—1 start, includ-
ing a 3—1 win over eventual NCAA
Tournament squad Sacramento

‘State, the (Eats seemed to be turn-
ing the clock back to 1993, when
the team finished 29-4. Through
the first 19 days, junior outside hit-
ter LaTanya “'ebb was among the
nation's leaders in kills )er game.
Sophomore middle blocker Jaclyn
Hoinan had become the powerful
blocker head coach Fran Flory
envisioned. The team was destroy-
ing its opponents.

Life was good.

But then the team traveled to
Louisville, where U of L handed
the Cats a nasty 2-3 loss. After
going up 2-1, the Cats looked to be
on the verge of a breakthrough
against the Cards.

Instead, it became a monumen-
tal breakdown.

“For the past several seasons,
we’ve allowed (the Louisville
matches) to be a turning point in
the wrong direction," UK head
coach Fran Flory said. “\Vlien we
didn't beat them, you could tell
when we walked off the floor —

“Oh God, here we are again
right back where we started."'

The loss in Louisville proved to
be a foreshadowing of futility to
come. The Cats limped to a 6—15
record after the Oct. 17 upset to
finish the season at 14-17. Though
UK won its first Southeastern
Conference 'l‘ournament match
since 1994 late in the season, out-
side hitter Katie Fiserinan walked

away unhap y with what her team
had accomp ished.

“llow can you be happy when
you start 8—1 and you finish the way
we did," liiserinan said. “All 1 can
say is that next year will be differ-
ent. Very different."

One thing that won't be differ-
ent next season will be the Cats'
line-up, which boasted two juniors,
three sophomores and one fresh—
man this season. Ninety percent of
the team’s offense returns for the
1998 season, leaving Fiserinan
excited about next season's
prospects.

“Having so many people back is
crucial," Eiserrnan said. “Some
teams in the conference are losing a
lot of people, but we have everyone
back. That's huge.”

“We're pretty much set for next
season," Flory said. “Next year,
we’re goin to reap the benefits of
this year's fosses. \Ve’ll have more
experience and a better under—
standing of how to win."

Nowhere did that lack ofexperi—
ence show through more than the
Cats' first match against South
Carolina. At the time, USC was
flirting with the Top 25 and had
been undefeated at home. UK won
both the first and the fourth games,
but yielded in the final minutes to
lose the final aine. 9-15.

Though the match ended in a
loss, Flory said the contest spoke
volumes about her team’s future.

“That was the night our system
worked." Flory said of the first

L'SC match. “\Ve came together
and we out-played South Carolina
in every aspect except for the
scoreboard."

team’s starting setter mid-way
through the season, said she is leav—
in UK at the end of the semester.
T e Martinsville, lnd., native lin-
ished her freshman season with 656
assists, including a (vi-assist win-
ning effort against Fastern lllinois.

“l just wanted to be closer to
home," Burns said yesterday. “If
you were to move this campus clos-
er to home, I would definitely stay."

Her last game came against
South Carolina on Nov. 11. Soon
after that match, Burns said she
told Flory of her intention to leave
the University.

Burns left the team prior to the
Nov. 14 match with 'l‘enness‘ee.
leaving sophomore Terri (Ir-.ibb to
pick up the team’s setting duties.
finishing the season ahead of Burns
with 771 assists.

Burns said she had been offered
a scholarship to play at lndiana
University-Purdue University at
Indianapolis and plans on attending
the school next semster.

Though the UK coaching staff
isn’t allowed to comment on spe-
cific recruits until the official sign—
ing period begins, Flory said the
team’s recruiting wish-list includes
an outside hitter, a right—side hitter
and possibly a setter.

“This year’s recruiting class is
important for the future, but I

don't know how important it is for
next fall," Flory said.

“If Terri ((lrabb) doesn’t come
around in spring practice. we'll
look for a junior college transfer.
But Terri definitely has the oppor—
tunity to be our starting setter for
next season."

()ne recruiting trend Flory
doesn‘t want to follow is the acqui-
sition of foreign players. Several
foreign players, including (it-or—
gia‘s Lita] Sisso (Israel). Florida's
Aryuinar Rodriguez, (l’uerto Rico)
and L‘S(I‘s Fernanda Laires
(lira/ill, have tirade a significant
impact in the SFC.

Though Flory sccs advantages
in playing foreign-born players, she
said her program will not be active—
ly recruiting out ofthe country.

“A foreign player adds so much
to your team because they've
played the game longer," Flory
said. “Just playing against that pen
son eiery day in practice # you
learn so much more than from the
coach. lint I‘m only going to sign a
foreign player after l know that 1
can't sign an American. l'rn a fan of
American dollars for American stu—
dents.

“l)oes that mean I'm never
going to win a national champi—
onship? Maybe it does. l don‘t
think that. l \vant to do it with peo»
ple from here and I want to prove it
can be done."

FAIRFIELD, Calif. —- A
Woman bent on aven 'ng the slay-
ing of a friend bide her time for
more than a decade before she
seduced the killer and then cut off
his penis, police say.

Doctors were unable to reat—
tach the organ to 48-year—old pipe
fitter Alan Hall.

Police on Wednesday searched
for the woman, whom Hall knew
only as “Brenda."

Hall, who was convicted in
1983 of voluntary manslaughter in
the death of Denise Denofrio, told
police that he met “Brenda” at a

as station on Friday and that she
Ped him back to his trailer, where
they had sex.

Suddenly, she took a cutting
tool she found in his trailer and
cut off his penis, he said.

“The woman made a com-
ment which caused the man to
believe that she was seeking
revenge for a previous incident
involving the man and a friend

Baird.

1n the morning, ei ht hours
after the attack, aLpasseriy spotted
Hall Collapsed an bleeding heavi-
ly on the front lawn. Hall was
rushed to NorthBay Medical Cen-
ter, but it was too late to sew the
penis back on.

“It was just too deep a cut,"
said Lt. Bill Gresham. “How do 1
put this.: It was cut down to the
base."

Hall’s injuries were so severe
that investigators were unable to

juestion him in depth until Mon-
aly, when he got out of the hospi-
ta .

Family members said he left his
trailer Tuesday.

“We really honest to God
don’t know where he is,” said
his brother John Hall, 45. “I
believe he’s in shock. He’s not
talking a whole lot about what
lhappened, and I’m not asking a
or.”

john Mraz, the now-retired
officer who investigated the 1983
case, said Hall strangled

Michigan policy could
alter students' GPAs

By Janet Adamy
illitbigan Daily

ANN ARBOR, Mich. ——
Minority applicants from Mar—
quette, Mich, who earned a 2.7
grade—point average at Detroit
Country Day hi h school could
have their CPA 005th to a 3.7
when their a plication contents are
reweighted uring the University’s
intricate admissions process.

The admissions procedure refig-
ures an applicant’s GPA and takes
into account more than grades and
test scores.

Fractions of points are added and
subtracted from a student’s GPA for
various reasons, which can leave the
numbers looking much different
than on a student’s official high
school transcript.

According to procedures used to
evaluate the incoming fall 1997
pool of applicants, admissions
clerks first narrow down the GPA
to the grades received in core aca-
demic classes such as math, English
and science and throw away elective
classes like music and physical edu-
cation.

“What (University admissions
officials) call your GPA is probably
going to be lower than what it is,"
said Walter Harrison, vice presi-
dent for University Relations.

The year is 2013.
