Officials still hoping
for engineering funds

State House
wants to delete
appropriations

 

By Alan Aja
Staff Writer

 

Despite a recommendation by the
Kentucky House of Representatives
to delete a $500,000 appropriation
for UK’s College of Engineering
from the governor's budget request,
UK officials are optimistic the
funding will be included in the Sen-
ate‘s version of the bill.

If approved, the money will be
used to help the college attain Top
25 status in the United States — a
high priority of Gov. Brereton
Jones.

“Even though the House recom-
mended to delete the $500,000 for
engineering enhancement, it doesn’t
mean we've lost,” Thomas W. Lest-
er, dean of UK's College of Engi-

neering, said yesterday.

“The Senate may be more favora-
ble for the budget proposal than the
House."

UK President Charles Wething-
ton said he would work to ensure
the allocation is included in the
Senate’s final budget plan.

“(This proposal) has a lot of p0~
tential for trying to get UK’s school
of engineering as one of the best in
the nation,” Wethington said.

“We will continue our efforts and
keep working to allow this proposal
to pass.”

The House’s recommendation to
delete the $500,000 follows public
opposition to the appropriation by
University of Louisville. President
Donald Swain.

Swain has said the proposal to
give to UK more money ignores the
needs of U of L’s engineering pro-
gram.

He also said the move could
eventually lead to the elimination of
U of L’s engineering school.

Lester disagreed.

Diversity is a strength that
must be developed in the na-
tion‘s youth. actor-filmmaker
Edward James Olmos said last
night.

Olmos, who starred as a police
lieutenant in the “Miami Vice"
television series and as a calcu-
lus teacher in the movie “Stand

UK’s Celebration of Diversity
Week, sponsored by the UK Cul-
tural Diversity Committee.

The Emmy and Golden Globe
award winner spared no single
ethnic group in his verbal assault
on those who have helped the
United States earn a woeful dis-
tinction in history.

“I think that President Swain’s
statements are greatly overstated,"
he said.

“1 don’t see how it would hurt U
of L at all. We have faculty that col-
laborate closely with many of U of
L‘s engineering programs, and we
enjoy working together.

“This money can only help keep
this going while improving engi-
neering education.”

Swain could not be reached for
comment yesterday.

Another budget cut recommend-
ed by the House would eliminate
money for a four-year engineering
program that would be operated by
UK at Paducah Community Col-
lege.

Lester said UK was the proper in-
stitution to provide an engineering
program in western Kentucky and
Paducah Community College was
the best place.

If the program is approved. Lest-
er said it would have about 10 fa-

The continuing struggle for gender equality at UK
is progressing slowly — too much so according to
the Consortium for Gender Equality.

Members of the group announced at a press confer-
ence yesterday that women still comprise the majori-
ty of secretarial and clerical employees at UK while
men dominate the faculty and administrative ranks.

Between 1989 and 1992, the number of women in
administrative positions at UK has increased from 27
to 36 percent, a report by the consortium said. And,
the number of women in professional staff positions
has increased from 64 percent to 68 percent in the

But Carolyn Bratt, a professor in UK‘s College of
Law and a member of the consortium. said much
work remains to be done to improve gender equality.

“Women employees at UK are cloistered in the
lowest-status, lowest-paid positions at UK,” Bratt

A 1990 study on the status of women at UK
sparked the effort for gender equality at the Universi-
ty when it found women were underrepresented in

The 1990 repon found, for instance, that women
composed only 21 percent of faculty members in

The original repon, which was 320 pages in
length, made 125 recommendations to improve gen-
der equality at UK. Yesterday’s press conference was
held to update the repon and note action taken on the

 

The updated report found that women comprised
23 percent of faculty in 1992. If the current trend of
hiring women continues, the number of women facul-
ty will not reach 50 percent until 2047.

The new report also points out there is a “double
jeopardy” for “women of color." It said there is only
a 1 in 22 chance of a black woman being a faculty

According to the update, only 10 of the 125 sug-
gestions have been addressed by the University.

 

UK law professor Carolyn Bratt said yester-
day that the Unlverslty still has a long way
to go before attaining gender equity.

U.S. loses ground with Korea

 

By Paul Shln
Associated Press

SEOUL, South Korea — The
ground that had been gained in re-
solving the North Korean nuclear
dilemma washed away yesterday
under a wave of threats, canceled
talks and revived plans for war
games and Patriot missile deploy-
ment in South Korea.

 

North Korea issued a strong
warning that it would follow
through on its threat last year to
pull out of an international nuclear
controls treaty.

Hours later. South Korean Presi-
dent Kim Young-sam announced
that joint military exercises with the
United States will be held this year.
after all.

The games had been canceled as
pan of an attempt to coax the isolat-
ed, hard-line Communist North into
cooperating with inspections to de-
termine if it is building nuclear
weapons.

North Korea refused inspectors
access to a critical laboratory this
month.

That prompted the inspectors’
boss, the International Atomic En-
ergy Agency, to refer the issue yes-

terday to the United Nations Securi—
ty Counci, which could impose
sanctions on North Korea.

Sanctions could make the xeno-
phobic North feel increasingly be-
leaguered and worsen its already
struggling economy.

The United States meanwhile
canceled talks with North Korea
that were to have opened yesterday
in Geneva.

The talks were sought by the
Pyongyang government. but were
canceled because North and South
Korea failed over the weekend to
exchange envoys on the nuclear is-
sues.

Loan payments increasing
for some students in state

 

By Chris Tlpton
Staff Writer

For many college students. a loan
maybetheonlywaytoaffordthe
rising cost of higher education.

But for some students who re-
ceived loans during the late 1980:
and early ’903. the cost of paying
off that education soon will rise.

The Kentucky Higher Education
Assistance Authority recently re-

viewed about ll.(X)0 former loans
and found that the payments being
made by the recipients will not be
sufficient to fully pay off the loan
in the time allotted

Federal law states that all finan-
cial aid loam must be paid back
within 10 years of graduation.

Paul Borden. executive director
of the student lorm authority. says
each account was looked at individ-
ually md evaluated.

“We calculated how much need-

ed to be paid in order to meet the
deadline and then compared that to
what the loan recipient was paying
at the current date," Borden said.
“We looked at how the two figures
compared and acted accordingly."

“We have been adjusting ac-
counts shortly before they reach
term for many years." he added.
“but we felt that it would be better
to start adjusting them at an earlier

Each side accused the other of
causing the breakdown in the en-
voy exchange, which was a key
condition for the Geneva talks that
North Korea sought.

The talks were to cover improv-
ing economic and diplomatic rela-
tions. as well as the nuclear issue.

Nation of Islam drawing fire

 

By Sharon Cohen
Associated Press

 

CHICAGO — When Brenda
Bolden walks by the stone-faced
men guarding her building, she
doesn't ask their views on race and
religion. She has one pressing pri-
ority: her safety.

She doesn't mind that these se-
curity guards. clad in suits and bow
ties, are disciples of Louis Farrak-
han, or that their message is contro-
versial. If they protect her public
housing project — and talk sense,
too — that's just fine with her.

“I don‘t care if it’s Farrakhan or
the Ku Klux Klan,“ Miss Bolden
says.

“If they can say something to
save a life, stop a shooting, clean
up the drug activity or slow it
down, if they can show a young
person how to lead a clean and de—
cent life, what‘s wrong with that?"

Nothing, of course. But there‘s a
deeper debate here, centering on a
man and a movement: Minister
Louis Farrakhan and his Nation of
Islam.

Should tax dollars go to members
of a group that many believe
preaches separatism and anti-
Semitism?

That's one of the numerous ques-
tions being raised about Farrakhan
and his followers in a firestonn that
has divided blacks, incensed Jews
and stirred debate from college

“A MOVIE MIRACLE...

a rough. raw, absolutely riveting
action adventure film."

director RobertRodnguez.

Farrakhan controversy continues
to boil across nation

campuses to Congress.

The furor was sparked by a top
aide‘s speech at a New Jersey col-
lege that excoriated Jews as “blood-
suckers“ of the black community
and the pope as a “no-good crack-
er," and urged blacks to kill whites
in South Africa.

Kweisi Mfume, chairman of the
Congressional Black Caucus, con-
demned Khallid Abdul Muham-
mad‘s remarks and disavowed a
covenant his group recently had
formed with a seemingly more
moderate Farrakhan.

Farrakhan responded, too: Last
month, he demoted his aide and de-
nounced the speech as “repugnant,“
but defended its “truths" and ac-
cused the Anti-Defamation League
of B'nai B’n'th of trying to bring
him down.

Since then, Farrakhan‘s tone has
been defiant, and his words blister-
ing and contradictory: He told Arse-
nio Hall his is a “ministry of love,”
then two days later, at the group's
annual Saviour‘s Day celebration,
blamed Jews for killing Christ and
said “murder and lying come easy
to white people."

He, and other Nation of Islam
members, did not respond to several
requests from The Associated Press
for interviews.

To critics, the 60-year-old Farrak-
han‘s message is drenched in po—
grom-like anti-Semitism and Klan-
like racism — only in reverse.

Farrakhan and his followers are a
“hate-mongering fringe group," de-
clares Major Owens, a Black Cau-
cus member from New York.

“His racism and his anti-
Semitism are odious (but) what is
just as disturbing is he proposes a
fascist dictatorship for black Ameri-
ca," said Adolph Reed, a North-
western University political science
and history professor who has writ-
ten about Farrakhan.

“It’s driven by moral repressive—
ness," Reed said. “It‘s homophobic.
It's sexist. And it doesn‘t think

much of civil liberties."

But supporters see Farrakhan as
a bold voice of truth who stands up
to the white establishment.

“In terms of recognizing and
naming the fundamental problem
— racism and the continuation of
slavery of black folk in this country
— he does it better than anyone I
know," said the Rev. Canon Frede-
rick Williams, rector at the Episco-
pal Church of the Intercession in
Harlem.

Many blacks live “on the very
precipice of rage," he said. “He has
tapped into that and it‘s very pow-
erful."

Young people, such as Kelwin
Harris, a 16-year-old Catholic pa-
rishioner, find parts of Farrakhan‘s
message appealing.

“Jesse Jackson and Martin Lu-
ther King said, ‘We shall over-
come, but it may take some time,’
" Harris said. “Farrakhan says, ‘We
can do this now, we can stop buy-
ing from white people. We can
keep our money in our communi-
ty.‘ ”

Rasheed Akbar, who runs a Chi-
cago-based program for ex-addicts,
said blacks believe “any of our
leaders could be bought off other
than Louis Farrakhan."

A Time-CNN poll of 504 blacks
in February found that 9 percent of
those surveyed ranked Farrakhan
as the nation's most important
black leader, compared with 34
percent for Jesse Jackson.

The poll also found that two-
thirds of those familiar with Far-
rakhan viewed him favorably;
roughly as many said he speaks the
truth and is good for blacks.

There‘s little doubt that Fanak-
han. a spellbinding orator, has star
power; he has attracted tens of
thousands to speeches from Los
Angeles to New York, once even
outdrawing a World Series game.

But Reed cautions from drawing
anv far-reaching conclusions.

“People invoke his name iconi-
cally as a vague symbol of
black assertiveness," he said.

“That doesn’t have anything to
do with joining the Nation of Islam
or accepting anything that Farrak-
han believes."

The message may even be secon-
dary to blacks who feel alienated
and excluded by white society, said
Elijah Anderson, a University of
Pennsylvania sociology professor.

“They like that he applies the
heat to white folks that most black
leaders are not doing." he said.
”He repudiates white society and
says, ‘We don‘t need them. We can
do it. "

Some praise the Nation's conser-
vative themes of self-reliance, dis-
cipline, clean living — no alcohol,
no drugs and only one meal a day
——- as well as its success in reform-
ing addicts and hardened criminals.

“There is no group in America
that has done more for African-
American males than the Nation,"
contends the Rev. Michael Pflcger,
a white Catholic priest with a black
parish —— and a Farrakhan friend
for 10 years.

“They reach out to try to give
them knowledge, respect and to de-
velop their full selves, rather than
to be wasted or written of

But positive deeds don‘t obliter-
ate poisonous messages, says civil
rights activist Roger Wilkins, a his-
tory professor at George Mason
University.

“When the Nation does good
work it‘s as if you do charity in
the daytime and nm a house of
prostitution at night," Wilkins said.
“The good is clearly overshad-
owed."

For all the uproar, Farrakhan‘s
Nation is relatively small.

The group doesn‘t release mem-
bership numbers, but it numbers
more than 20,000, according to
Larry Mamiya, a religion and Afri-
cana studies professor at Vassar

College.

For more than five decades, the
Nation of Islam was run by Elijah
Muhammad as a black nationalist
empire that regarded whites as dev-
ils.

Fanakhan. born Louis Eugene
Walcott, a former Episcopal altar
boy and calypso singer who still
plays the violin, joined after hear-
ing Muhammad speak in 1955. He
became a protege of Malcolm X.

After Muhammad‘s death in
1975, the Nation split; his son.
Wallace, rejected separatism and
moved toward orthodox Islam. Ma-
miya says that faction has 100,000
to 200.000 followers.

But Farrakhan took the more
militant road.

He vaulted to prominence as a
supporter of Jesse Jackson‘s 1984
presidential campaign and, soon af-
ter, was courting controversy.

He made veiled arrests against
Jews accused of harassing the civil
rights leader, scorned Judaism as a
“gutter religion,” and 00an
with Libya‘s Moammar Gadhafi,
accepting a $5 million business
loan for his organization.

Now, the Nation of Islam has ex-
panded its business empire from
hair-care and skin products to plans
for a printing operation for its
newspaper “Final Call."

Among the most high-profile
ventures are affiliated companies
that have won lucrative govem-
ment contacts to provide security
guards at subsidized housing devel-
opments in several big cities.

The companies‘ efforts have
been successful in Baltimore and
Washington, DC, but in Los An-
geles, a contract was lost because
the guards were unable to stop ram-
pant drug dealing and gang activi—
ty.

In many places, including Chica-
go, Jewish groups have objected to
these arrangements.

“You can't excuse or wash away
the Nation of Islam's bigotry sim-
ply because it’s a situation of des-
peration," said Richard Hirschhaut,
director of the Anti-Defamation
League's greater Chicago region.

WASHINGTON — The Su-
preme Court wants to know what
the Clinton administration thinks
about employers who require work-
ers to speak only English on the
job.

The court asked Justice Depart-
ment lawyers yesterday their view
of a ruling that cleared a California
company of using an English-only
mle to discriminate illegally against
Spanish-speaking employees.

Such rules are increasingly com-
mon nationwide.

The court is not expected to say
whether it will review the Califor-
nia case until hearing from adminis-
tration lawyers, which could take
months.

In other matters, the court:

~Asked the administration wheth-
er the Federal Election Commis-
sion, represented by its own legal
staff, can appeal a ruling that invali-
. dated its makeup.

_, I A federal appeals court mled that
the eight-member commission‘s
makeup is unlawful because it in-
cludes two nonvoting members em-
ployed by Congress.

The commission, represented by
its own legal staff, appealed to the

“We only paid $15,000 for the

It put “cosmetic" cracks in free-

previously quake-damaged home

It also reawakened millions of

ago.

The Supreme Coun ruled in 1989
that burning the American flag as a
form of political protest is protected
by the Constitution’s free-speech
guarantee, but an Ohio judge told
jurors there was no such precedent.

The English-only dispute began
when Priscifla Garcia and Marciela
Buitrago, together with their labor
union, sued the Spun Steak Co. in
South San Francisco in 1991.

They alleged that the company‘s
English-only rule violated a federal
law barring on-the-job bias based
on national origin.

Spun Steak runs a meat-
processing plant where the two
women worked on a production
line. The company employs just
over 30 people. Most of them, like
Garcia and Buitrago, are Hispanic
and bilingual.

A federal judge nlled that Spun
Steak's English-only rule violated
the federal anti-bias law.

The judge relied on guidelines es-
tablished by the federal Equal Em-
ployment Opportunity Commission
treating English-only rules in em-
ployment as presumptively illegal.

The guidelines state that barring
employees from speaking their pri-
mary language may create “an at-
mosphere of inferiority, isolation
and intimidation based on national
origin which could result in a dis-
criminatory working environment.“

The city‘s yellow wanting tag,
posted when she was away from
the home where she grew up, said
“exterior only,” apparently refer-
ring to a damaged chimney and
block wall.

But at one point officials from
the Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency refused to enter the
house because of the tag, stalling
her application for aid.

“1 have good days and bad
days,“ said Taylor. who still lives
with friends or in motels.

“Sometimes I just sit around and
cry. The earthquake took every-
thing."

Statistics reveal vast unaddressed
needs like hers.

“Because they are able to speak
English, bilingual employees can
engage in conversation on the job.
.. (The anti-bias law) is not meant
to protect against mles that merely
inconvenience some employees."

The appeals court said the ling-
lish-only rule might be illegal if im-
posed against employees who speak
little or no English.

The justices were told that dis-
putes over English-only rules are

Aftershocks offer reminder of destruction

FEMA has received more than
350,000 applications for temporary
housing assistance, of which about
215,000 have been approved for
$535 million. About 45,000 appli-
cations were rejected while 91,000
were still being processed, said
FEMA spokesman Many Baha-
monde.

People with quake insurance find
that those payments, too, can take
time.

Steve Shaver said city inspectors
had time to give his home a few
miles from the Northn'dge epicen-
ter only a cursory inspection, so he
hired a private home inspector.

Two months after the quake, he

ment on his claim until he gets a
second contractor to verify the
damage found by the private in-
spector.

State officials estimated the
Northridge quake damage at $20
billion.

The human toll was also high.
Sixty—one people died and over
10,000 were injured during the 6.7-
magnitude quake and its immedi-
ate aftershocks.

No deaths or serious injuries
were reported during Sunday‘s af-
tershock. which was centered six
miles east of the Northridge
quake’s epicenter and was the

After a dynamite breakthrough

ways. They conform to commercial
standards to make money, or they
continue to make powerful music
their way. Fortunately,
