Habitat
announces
fund drive

By Dale Greer
Executive Editor

 

 

I'K's Ilabitat for Humanity chap-
ter announced a tnnd~raisittg carti—
paign yesterday designed to raise
5.11.000 iii little more th:ut a year.

(‘hapter president Dennis Dever
said the money will be Used to con-
struct a Iow»cost home that will be
sold to a poor faintly at no profit.

The house will be built iii the
spritig of 1994 by volunteers and
members of the student organiza-
tion.

To begin fund-raising efforts. the
organization yesterday mailed more
than 9,500 solicitations to full-time
employees on the Lexington Cam-
pus. at Lexington Community Col—
lege and at UK Ilospital. I)ever
said.

“We are going to every corner of
the Lexington ('ainpus to gather
support for us to build this house."
he said.

“It's hard for a campus organiza-
tion to raise 533.000, and it's a
great deal harder now because of
tliK) budget cuts“ and the stagnant
economy.

Still. l)ever said. the money czm
be raised. The chapter is working
on getting grants from area busi-
nesses. and an annual pledge drive
usually raises about $5.000.

Ile also said the chapter is plan-
tiiiig some changes to improve its
visibility on czunpus zuid provide
for better organization. These in-
clude establishing a monthly news-
letter for members of the UK coin-
riiuiiity and setting specific agendas
each year.

“We're basically putting together
a plan where. perhaps. every other
year we can begin construction on a
new home." Dever said.

The 3-year-old IIK chapter com-
pleted its first home. on Ilawkins
Avenue. in November of I001 as
part of a IS-house project spon-
sored by Ilabitat for Humanity of
Lexington Inc.

The plan to build a second home
this soon is somewhat ambitious,
I)ever said. Most of the 308 Ilabitat
chapters on campuses nationwide
have built at least one home. birt
only a handful have even an-
nounced plans for a second.

The rewards of providing afford-
able housing for the working poor.
however. are wonh the struggle.
Devcr said.

“It‘s a lot of fun. and you can see
the benefits of your work." he said.
“The project (last year) really
brought some life into the neighbor-
hood.“

Ralph Currie. director of Lexing-
ton‘s Ilabitat chapter. agreed. The
neighborhood around Hawkins Av-
enue used to be plagued with trash-
strcwn lots and run-down homes.

Now. “the entire area has really
sprung up" because of the Habitat
homes and road improvements by
the city. Currie said.

“It's really an interesting byprod-
uct of cleaning up a lot or two, or.
in our case. building new houses.
An individual actually built a house
on Hawkins this year. and. I mean.
nobody would build on Hawkins

there are too many vice presidents
and not enough are concented with
academics." said physics professor
Kunible Subbaswzuny. also a task
force member. "Right now we have
a chiuicellor system. into there‘s
a lot of duplication.

“What we hope is that with a sin-
gle academic structure that these
kinds of duplication and bzuriers to
communication across sectors will
go away." Subbaswiuny' said.

Both said the delzuls‘ of proposing
the position will be worked out at
the committee's meeting Monday.
Ilowever. the provost essentially
would be “single academic head."
Subbaswzuny said.

Committee chainnzui Merl Ilack-
hart said that creating a provost po-
sition is “one of the options" being

considered. but that it would be
“premature at this time" to coin
ment on it.

The proposals must be given to
Wethingtoii 'I‘uesday.

Wethington said yesterday that
he did not know whether a provost
system would be feasible. but he
said the question is more of “which
structure is the best."

He said he believes the current
dccciitraIi/ed administration sy stern
of vrce presidents and chancellors is
satisfactory.

“The present structure is work—
ing." he said.

He declined to say what he would
prefer. saying he would wait to see
what the rationale of the various ic-
aIigniiient committees are

since tlte state introduced them in
1988. Although they are available
with logos for each of Kentucky's
eight state universities. almost half
of the plates sold bear the likeness

Ily'pothennia occurs when your
core body temperature drops after
overexposure to extreme cold.
Victims usually feel cold all over
the body. rather than in a localized
area as with frostbite. Intoxication
and exhaustion increase the risk of
hypothennia.

Symptoms include shivering.
mental confusion. drowsiness.
numbness and muscle weakness.

If you suspect hypothemiia.
don't delay. (‘all ()I 1. Immediate
intervention is necessary to we

Dear Fact Cat: Why is there so

much talk about alcohol in con-

diseases., Does alcohol make my
body more susceptible to getting
a S'l'l)?

Dear Wondering: Alcohol and
other drugs impair judgement.
One is more likely to take risks
when using alcohol or drugs —-
risks like unplanned or uninten-
tional sex and unsafe sexual prac-
tices. like lack of condom use. Al-

presidents. chancellors tuid special
assistants to the president. “for art

Wethington is considering the
possibility of hiring ati outside cott-
stiltant to look at how the li'niversi-
ty structure can be streamlined.

“It‘s certainly likely I will go
with an outside consultant. but I
want to see what the recommenda-
tions are first." Wethington said.

'l'he money to pay for the consul—
tant would coiiie frotn University-

He doesn't know if the funds would

be intemally generated or appropri-
ated by the state.

"I don‘t anticipate (the costt be-

Wethington said he expects rea-

sometime next semester. though
some changes. such as those that
would effect only one administra-
tive zuezt could be enacted at the
beginning of the semester.

llemenway said “it‘s too early to

will be. but that the committees

“I‘ve committed myself to look-
ing at every recommendation that
comes to me."

Wethington was vice president
for the community college system
iii I982 when. under then-President
()tis Singletary. the current system
was enacted.

Interviewed Wednesday. the
president emeritus said the philoso-
phy behind having both vice presi-
dents and chancellors was “to move
the authority down itito three com-
ponents.“

He acknowledged that the decen-
trali/ed system could lead to some
duplication. “Some of it’s justifias
ble." Singletary said.

Wethington said the changes did
not create tnore bureaucracy. since
no new positions were added. only
job descriptions and titles were
changed.

Some member of the faculty have
said they think the administration
has grown. attd that the system of
vice presidents and chancellors
breeds duplication.

"I think it would be very hard to
see how you would make that
case." Wethington said. “No. I
don‘t agree."

But Wethington said that any
chtutges made now will be based on
what the University can be practi—
cally. more so than what it theoreti-
cally should be.

“this is a different kind of titne
thmi It) years ago." he said. "'I‘he
budget itself is reason for us to look
at the things we‘re doing."

Wethington will review the pro-
posals with the vice presidents and
chancellors. arid then begin making
decisions at the beginning of the
spring semester.

When Singletary came to UK in

1969. there was a provost position.
but Singletary made the position
into a vice president for academic
affairs. said Lewis Cochran. who
was provost from 1962 to I970. and
subsequently vice president until he
retired in I98l.

llowever. Cochran said his duties
as provost were not those of a typi-
cal chief academic officer.

(‘ochran said the ideal adminis-
trative model would be something
like the University of Tennessee‘s.
where the president d‘als primarily
with extental affairs — develop-
inetit and state goveminent. while
the provost is the “inside (the uni
\ersity) president,"

llemenway acknowledged talk of
a provost position but declined to
offer :ut opinion about it. “'I‘he real
issue is how do you organi/e the
adtninistrative structure and work
processes of the institution in such a
way that they are done efficiently.“
he said.

Peter Bosomworth. chzmcellor for
the Medical Center. said the domi-
nant system in the United States for
triedical centers is a chancellor and
vice president for health affairs

“’l‘here are a few instances of pro
vost and vice provost for health al-
fairs." he said.

He wouldn‘t say whether one per—
son in charge of all the academic at!
fairs and the UK Hospital would be
too much to ask of one person. “It
would depend on where the hospital
and the entire program fit in such
tut arrangement.“ he said.

“Whatever organization we have.
whether the same or a modified sys-

“’I‘hat kind of raises the expecta-
tions tutd the value of the property
for everyone. We have a heck of a
time buying any hind over there
now because the price has gone up
out of our price rzmgc."

The benefits of Habitat for Ho-
manity also can be less tangible.
said David Stockhzun. dean of stu-
dents and University adviser to the
student chapter.

Because families who receive
homes through Habitat are required
to work with volunteers during con-
struction — a process called “sweat
equity" _ Stockham said divergent
socio—economic groups come to-
gether in surprising ways.

"I've had occasion to be present
at job sites with families. and it‘s
part of what I see as the magic of
HabitaL" Stockham said.

“We have some gigantic barriers
in society. and when you're swing-
ing a hammer and standing next to
somebody who is going to get the
house. you find that you have a lot
more in common with each other
than you have at odds.

"'l‘hc purpose of Ilabitat is to
build houses. but it also is to btiild
friendships across racial. economic.
social tutd cultural lines, Anybody
who has spent much time iii Ilabitat
begins to have different attitudes. at
least about the working poor."

there has been a brothers-in-anns
comradery that is rarely seen in the

world.

And it is becoming less of a rari-

gets together to create a synthesis
of their current music

Styen years ago. Splat Records

"The owner of the Recordsmith

“There‘s going to be some bands

if you like half or two—thirds of it.
then it exposes you to new bands
and that is worthwhile “
