Counseling Center short on personnel

By VICTORIA MARTIN
Staff Writer

Although UK’s Counseling and
Testing Center is supposed to be
able to provide full-time students
with personal and vocational assis-
tance, the center is grossly under-
staffed to serve a campus of the
University’s size.

The center employs a certified
chemical dependency counselor,
two learning skills instructors, four
support personnel and six licensed
staff psychologists, according to
Linda Hougland, Counseling and
Testing Center administrative as-
sistant.

But to serve the campus more ad-
equately the center needs a staff
about twice that size, Hougland
said.

“We should have about 12 li-
censed psychologists." Hougland
said. “According to a University of
Maryland survey, our staff is about
half the size that a university this
size should have. We need more of
a staff, but we feel that our services
should be free of charge. Our goal
is to provide as many students as
we can with free private counseling
and career help."

The Counseling and Testing
Center is funded by the Office of
Student Affairs, but center officials
said they need additional financial
support to be able to expand the
center's services,

“With the facilities we have now,
we could house a few more psy-
chologists with increased funding,“
Hougland said. “We are asking for
renovations, but staff is our main
priority."

Nikki Fulks, assistant director
and a staff psychologist at the cen-
ter, said additional funding would

Kentucky Lt. Gov. Brereton
Jones spoke yesterday to about 150
students and fa-
culty at Lafay-

e t te H i g h
School during a
ceremony com-
memorating the
school‘s partici-
pation in an in-
tra-state student
exchange pro-
gram sponsored
by Jones’ of-
ficc‘ JONES

The new program, which will
award seven college scholarships,
places selected Kentucky high
school juniors in a host school for
one week, where they will attend
classes with a peer who also is par-
ticipating in the program.

During the 10-day visit, the
guest student will stay with the
peer's family. The two students
change roles when the guest returns
home.

Jones said he is sponsoring the
program because he wants to break
down the regionalism that he said
prevents Kentuckians from working
together.

“l‘ve found that one of our great-
est problems is the fact that we’ve
get different sections of the state
that are very different and we don't
always pull together.” Jones told
the audience. “The diversity of this
state ought to be an asset and not a
liability."

High School was presented with a

enable the center to offer a training
program for psychology graduate
students. The center offered a train-
ing program a few years ago, but it
was discontinued because of a lack
of staff.

“The good news is they‘ve just
added a position for a new staff psy-
chologist that will be hired near the
first of the year,” Hougland said.
“This means that we can see anoth-
er 20 to 25 students a week, and
that is progress.”

Although the center will add an-
other staff psychologist, funding
problems have forced center offi-
cials to limit each student to 15
sessions per academic year, Houg-
land said. Some students are referred
to long-term counseling, either on
campus or to private services, for
additional help.

Michael R. Nichols, director and
a staff psychologist at the center,
said although the center is under-
staffed, he is pleased with what it
offers the campus.

“I’m really proud of our center,”
Nichols said. “Our staff is dedicated
and creative, and frankly, they work
too hard. I’m responsible for mak-
ing sure they (the staff) do their
jobs, but with this staff, I have to
tell them to do less."

The center’s staff serves about
the same number of students as ful-
ly staffed universities similar in
size to UK, Nichols said.

During the 1987-88 school year,
the center’s professional staff saw
2,043 clients, Nichols said.

Last year, the center’s outreach
program, which includes offering
workshops and giving presentations
to students, parents and staff. in-
volved 15,860 people. But with a
bigger staff, the center could reach
more students, Nichols said.

Campus Escort Service ready for

By HOLLY HOUSTON
Contributing Writer

Despite a slow start this year, the
Student Escort Service is operating
again on campus, using the slogan
“Don’t Walk Alone."

The escort service, which was
implemented by the Student Gov-
ernment Association in spring

I988, started about three weeks late
this semester because of printing
and advertising problems and a lack
of returning workers.

Students who want to be walked
safely to and from various locations
at night can call for an escort, and
one of four escorts will respond.

The escorts work Sunday through
Thursday, from 8 pm. until mid-

separate routes on campus. Their
paths include North, South and

The controversial Assassina-
tion Game, which came under
fire from campus officials last
week for being potentially dan-
gerous and disruptive, was shot
down by the Dean of Students
Of lice Friday.

The game was based on the
premise that players were corn-
pcting for a job in a powerful
intelligence organization. To
get the job, the players had to
“liquidate" their competitors by
hitting them with a projectile
fired from a toy weapon.

Thirty-two people paid S3
each to play the game, accord»
ing to the game‘s organizer,
Rob Redrnon. Seven had been
“assassinated“ by the time the
Dean of Students office told
Redmon to stop the game on
Friday.

UK Police Chief Wit.
McComas said last week that he
was concerned about the safety
of the game because police offi-
cers could mistake the toy
weapons for real guns. McCo—
mas said he also was concemcd
about potential eye damage
caused by the projectiles.

Dean of Students Doug \Allv
son said he told Redmon to end
the game because it was “poten-
tially disruptivc" and because it
“had no educational merit "

“Depending on the actions or
the participants, the idea of .\.
number of people sort of turned
loose on the campus to make
their liquidations is tllS‘fUpilM'.
In my opinion " Wilson said
yesterday.

Race was not a factor, Wilder says

By JOHN OMCINSKI
USA TODAY/Apple College
Information Network

WASHINGTON — Winning by
a margin of 5.000 voles of 1.7 mil-
lion cast didn’t bother Virginia's
newly elected governor Doug Wild-
er.

He said last week that he didn't
think that race was a factor in the
closeness of the election, even
though his white Democratic tick-
et-mates won by wider margins.

“I'm saying it (race) is not and
was not a factor in the results be-
cause I was elected,” Wilder said.

The issue of race was important
in Wilder‘s platform through the
end

“The people of Virginia have
spoken.” he told a post-election ral-
ly. “Whatever it takes, that‘s what I
want to win by."

Indeed, Wilder pulled off his nar-
row victory by not making a big
deal about the fact that he was pass-
ing one of the remaining racial
milestones as the first black elected
governor in U.S. history.

But he didn’t deny its signifi-
cance.

“It‘s an excellent testament to the
people of Virginia, to the people of
this nation, as to how far we‘ve
come in a very short span of time,"

said Wilder. “I disagree with those
who said that race prohibited me
from doing anything. Race played
no part in denying me the opportu-
nity to be elected. I have been
elected by the people of Virginia.
That speaks more eloquently than
anything else.”

Indeed. last Wednesday Wilder
seemed completely colorblind.

“I’m tickled pink," he said.

He was willing to let others
crank up the eloquence.

New York's newly elected Mayor
David Dinkins said, “We passed an-
other milestone on freedom's
road”

Wilder's low-key statesmanship
on race seemed to be infectious.

Rep. Newt Gingrich, a white
congressman from Georgia who is
the House Republicans’ second-in-
command, called it “a good day for
Americans when young blacks and
other folks all over the country can
look at a (New York Mayor David)
Dinkins, a Gov. Wilder and say
there is a future in America if you
work hard and learn your trade.”

Wilder won with a tough, gritty
and expensive campaign against
Republican Marshall Coleman. It
will be used by professional politi-
cians not as a racial landmark but
as a lab for examining the abortion
issue.

Last week Wilder brushed off the
history-making nature of his elec-
tion:

“History is for those who aren‘t
going to be around for a while.“

Maybe Wilder sensed that even
the notion that a black has never
been elected a governor seems
somehow an anachronism in this
day and age.

After all. it's been 120 years
since Joseph Rainey became the
first black elected to the House, 50
years since Crystal Bird Fauset of
Philadelphia became the first black
woman state legislator, 49 years
since Benjamin 0. Davis became
the first black Army general, 22
years since Edward Brooke of Mas-
sachusetts became the first elected
black senator.

After all, there are 23 black
members in the House, and scores
of black mayors.

When Wilder raised the subject of
race during the campaign, he made
sure it was in intimate political set-
tings. One of those occasions was
Oct. 4 at predominantly black Vir-
ginia State University in Peters-
burg.

“Can it really be taking place
here in Virginia?” he asked in the
voice of an amazed visitor. “Are
they really going to do that there?"

In a final rally last week at the

Arlington County courthouse,
Wilder was surrounded by the
mostly white faces of the Demo-
cratic power structure in Virginia,
including Sen. Chuck Robb and
Gov. Gerald Baliles.

But now, they were Wilder's ta-
lismans of support. After all. Wild-
er, a millionaire, was The Estab-
lishment Democratic candidate, a
man who lists his hobbies as
“bridge. golf and horseback riding.”

Gone was Wilder's Afro haircut
of the late 19608, when as a mave-
rick state senator he waged a fight
against the state song, “Carry Me
Back to Old Virginny,” and its line
that goes, “That’s where this old
darkie's heart am longed to go.”

In 1989 was Wilder in a bright
red silk tie, crisp white shirt and
dark gray suit, his pepper-and-salt
hair a badge of 58 years of age, a
successful career as a lawyer and
his 22 years in politics.

Wilder’s left lapel bore a tiny
copper-colored battle ribbon, evi-
dence of wartime service in Korea.

In Arlington, there was a smil-
ing Robb, forgetting his well-
publicized fights with Wilder,
hanging upon him the mantle of
experience.

“He has more experience,” Robb
told the crowd, “than the whole
other side of the ticket."

The exchange program will pro—

said.

“We have a lot more similarities

Vice Chancellor of Student Af-
fairs James Kuder said he is ex-
amining ways to increase fund-
ing, but with the austere fiscal
times the University is facing, it
is difficult to find additional
money. he said.

“The Counseling and Testing
Center is a unique operation on
this campus,” said Kuder, who
received his master's degree in
psychology. “It plays a much
more vital role on campus than
people know. We are looking at
new ways of funding the center.
but the prospects are dim.”

Possible solutions to the cen-
ter’s financial problem include
charging an additional student
fee, charging fees for counseling
services and getting outside
grants, Kuder said.

But Kuder said he is hesitant
about resorting to such means,
especially an increased student
fee, because of the possible tui-
tion increase students face next
year.

hires a new psychologist during
the winter, the building will be

Nichols said he would like to
keep all employees under one
roof, but if necessary, the cen-
ter‘s skills testing department
will be relocated.

To prevent separating the cen-
ter’s employees, Kuder said
there is a proposal to consoli-
date student services, excluding

in the Student Center. But Kud-
er said he is unsure if that will

To compete for the scholarships,
the 90 exchange students are re-
quired to write an essay about their
experience with the program. They
also must give presentations to ci-
vic groups about their hometowns
and the towns that they visit. A
winner will be selected from each
of the state’s seven congressional
districts based on the essays and
presentations.The top-place finisher
will receive a minimum of $6,000;
second place $2500; and third place
$1500. The four remaining finalists
will receive tuition for one year at a
state-supported college.

The program is being funded by
Jones with the money he receives

exchange

to serve as acting governor when
Gov. Wallace Wilkinson leaves the
state.

Each of Kentucky‘s eight public
universities also agreed to provide
matching funds for the scholarships
Jones said he does not think it is
right that he is paid a govemor‘s
salary when Wilkinson leaves be-
cause “I don’t do anything any dif-
ferent when the governor leaves the

Jesus and Mary Chain
explores its musical past

THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN
Aura/tram

 

By CHARLES MoCUE
Assistant Arts Editor

For its new album, Automatic,
The Jesus and Mary Chain used, as
the old adage goes, something old,
something new, something bor-
rowed and something blue.

The “old” reflects the sound the
band used on Psychocandy, its first
album. Psychocandy tended to be
loaded down with guitar feedback
and resonance and didn’t say a
whole lot. The best song on the al-
bum, “Just Like Honey," was the
only one that didn’t sound like all

e others.

For the new album, the band has
captured that sound without coming
across as a group of Scottish post-
punk brats let lose with a guitar
and an amplifier.

The “new” is the sound that
comes out of the matrimony of
slow, droning tunes from the
band’s second album, Darklands,
with heavy, metallic riffs from
Psychocandy.

Dar/clouds represented a maturity
in the band. The band proved that it
had finally grown up with such
songs as “Cherry Came T00" and
“Nine Million Rainy Days."

Its third album, Barbed Wire
Kisses, was an eponymous collec-
tion of old material, B-sides and
previously unreleased songs. That
came closest to Automatic.

The “borrowed" is the way the
band borrows from the previous al-
bums. Automatic is a good album,
but, it’s sad to say, not much of
anything new. In fact, “Her Way Of
Praying” sounds almost identical to

“Happy When It Rains,” which is
from Darklands. The band has ma—
lured, however, and its sound defi-
nitely is more refined and not as
weighed down with raucousness.

With the new album, I expected
the band to go in a new direction.
Look what Love and Rockets did
on its latest album —— it created a
sound totally different than before.
And it worked.

The ambiguous “blue" on this al-
bum represents two things. First,
the album has a distinct blues
sound to it on songs like “Coast to
Coast.” And second, the Chain did
on this album what it does best ——
write depressing love songs and
haunting melancholic tunes about
the disadvantages of living.

Frontrnan William Reid seems to
be one of the most depressed indi-
viduals to have ever written music.
His predominant themes are sui-
cide, as in “Blues From A Gun."
when he sings: “The way that you
feel, and you shake, shake, shake
cause you know you’ll never make
it away. Well I guess that‘s why I
got the blues"; and twisted sexual
innuendo, as in “Her Way of Pray-
ing,” when he sings, “Deep on the
scene she is waiting for me like a
sin scraping skin it's her way of
talking to Jesus."

Ensemble feel carries ‘Magnolias’

By JULIE ROWLAND
Staff Writer

Most believe Southern belles
vanished with the fall of the
South. Although the hoop skirts
and corsets are gone, the talent of
the starring actresses in “Steel
Magnolias” proves the feminine
warmth, charm and strength of the
old South are still alive in their
five vibrant characters.

The movie, based on the per-
sonal experiences of writer Robert
Harling, is brought to life by the
talent of Sally Field, Dolly Par-
ton, Shirley MacLaine, Daryl
Hannah, Olympia Dukakis and
Julia Roberts.

Raw emotional intensity en-
compasses the story of friendship
which focuses on M’Lynn (Field ),
who has a differing opinion of
how her daughter Shelby’s (Rob-
erts) life should be led.

They become good friends with
three other women who come to-
gether in a beauty parlor. The oth-
er women provide moral support
and take chances in their own
lives strengthened by Shelby’s de»
termination to have a child.

The film depicts human life
beautifully with bold characters.

PMTO COURTESY OF TEST“? PICTURES

Dolly Patton, Sally Field. Daryl Hannah, Shirley MacLaine, Olym-
pia Dukakis and Julia Roberts star in “Steel Magnolias."

iiach actress puts so much of her»
self into her role that they come
oif its being authentic human be-
ings'.

Although the story is centered
on Shelby and her mother, the
other characters of Paruin, Hannah
MacLainc, and Dukakis provide
the strength of the movie.

Patton. who is cf Sottthcm dc-

scent, is right at home in her
role. Truvy is a natural, caring,
country girl whose charm makes
it easy for the other characters to
tell their problems to her. Many
probably can think of someone
like her they know in their home-
town.

Playing eccentric. charcters is
nothing new for MacLaine and

 

she does a wonderful job as Ousi~
er, who adds to the comedic feel
of the movie in a variety of situa-
tions.

The role of quirky, insecure An-
nabelle is very different from Han-
nah’s characters in “Splash" or
“Roxanne." She handles the
change of pace well. The charac-
ter’s many changes through differ-
ent phases of her life —— at one
point she starts to look, talk and
dress like Panon ~ are performed
wonderfully.

The theme that women need
men is reiterated throughout the
movie. Even independent Outser,
who rejects an unattractive man at
first, decides she needs a man and
starts to see him.

The male co—stars in the film
are Tom Skerritt. Dylan MtDer-
mott, Kevin J. ()‘f‘onncr and
Sam Shepard.

Bringing that kind of talent into
the emotion-packed story proves
that the Southern belles who
stood strong and went on Wlth
their lives like Scarlett O‘Hara in
“Gone With the Wind" using a
curtain as a dfc‘ss, mil never die
but remain steel magnolias in
spite of their hardships

VIEWPOINT

Counseling center
doing miracles
with small staff

College is a particularly stressful time for many students.
Many students are on their own for the first time, and they are
forced to make decisions that they were used to other people

making for them.

Getting good grades, deciding on a major or career and
dealing with new social pressures are enough to cause many

students to break.
