TA requirements to

 

By Brian Bennett
Senior Staff Writer

The title “teaching assistant" is a
misnomer for many graduate stu—
dents on campus.

That‘s because in numerous un-
dergraduate courses, the teaching
assistant actually is the primary in-
structor for students in the class.

University officials say there‘s
not a major problem with their reli-
ance on teaching assistants as iti-
structors. However. measures are
being taken to improve the TAs'
qualifications.

As part of the Universitywide re-
alignment and restructuring, teach-
ing assistants who have primary in-
structing responsibilities must have
a master’s degree and at least 18
hours of graduate work in the disci-
pline they teach.

“The goal that we‘re going to
work toward is that any student
who comes to UK can be certain
that the person in front of the class
has a master‘s degree." said Robert
Hemenway. chancellor for the Lex—
ington Campus.

Currently, between 200 and 300
sections of classes — mostly in the
University Studies Progrzun —— are
taught by teaching assistants. He-
menway said.

“1 don't consider it a problem."
he said. “Many who do not have
master’s degrees do an excellent
job in the classroom."

Hemenway said he thinks that
“we can make this happen in three
years.“ However. it will take more
than a desire to reach the goal.

“This is not something that you
can snap your fingers and make
happen." he said. “We can't
achieve it without investing in more

faculty."

Which is something the Universi-
ty hasn’t been doing recently. UK
President Charles Wethington un-
posed a hiring freeze in December
of 1991 in response to budget cuts.
which have totaled more than $26
million since fall 1991.

But Hemenway said UK will
make a new commitment to hiring
faculty members.

Hemenway estimated the cost of
implementing the program at $3
million. He said administrators al-
ready have allocated $600,000 from
restructuring toward the program.
and they will try to get the rest by
asking the 1994 and/or 1996 Gener-
al Assembly for funds.

Teaching assistants don‘t neces-
sarily do a bad job just because they
don‘t have master‘s degrees. said
Richard Edwards. dean of the Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences.

be stiffer

“I think TAs do a very good job
of teaching." Edwards said. “Some
or the most enthusiastic and eager
teachers are 'I‘As because they‘re
excited about what they're doing."

But Edwards said UK shouldn't
rely on them.

“in general. we would like Uni-
versity courses to be taught by reg-
ular faculty," he said. “We should
use TAs as assistants. rather than
replacements. for faculty,"

Dan Reedy. dean of Graduate
Studies. said he‘s not opposed to
the measure but people should re-
member that the teaching assistant
program provides an invaluable ser-
vice for graduate students.

“1 know the concern about the
use of 'I‘As." he said. “But 1 hope
that while we attempt to remedy
those concerns we don‘t stop doing
the educational function of prepar-
ing good teachers for the future."

Yeltsin prepares for political fight

 

By Deborah Seward
Associated Press

 

MOSCOW — Boris Yeltsin
stood firm yesterday against hard-
liners‘ efforts to impeach him. hard-
ening the stalemate over who rules
nuclear-armed Russia.

Yeltsin stayed out of public view.
still grieving over his mother's
death. but his foreign minister said
the Russian president was ready for
political battle.

The head of Russia's Constitu-
tional Court. Valery Zorkin. de-
clared that “the road toward a com-
promise has not been exhausted" ——
but he offered no idea what kind of
compromise might be possible.

And Zorkin warned. “When the
road to compromise is exhausted.
then war begins“

The court met to weigh the legali-

ty of Yeltsin‘s
declaration of
emergency rule
Sunday and his "
scheduling of a .
referendum for
April 25 on his
leadership. The
court. like the
Parliament that
has blocked
many of Yelt-
sin's reform ef-
forts. is dominated by forrner Com-
munists.

It was not clear when it would
reach a verdict. a crucial step in a
possible impeachment process.

The court was still meeting as of
2 am. Moscow time.

Yeltsin. meanwhile. issued a de-
cree yesterday aimed at blocking
his foes from taking over the news
media. He told the Interior Ministry

YELTSIN

   
 

to take “necessary measures" to de-
fend state-run TV, radio and news
agencies.

Yeltsin. whose 85—year-old moth-
er Klavdia died over the weekend.
let aides and other supporters keep
up the pressure on his political op-
ponents.

Presidential Chief of Staff Sergei
Filatov addressed thousands of
Yeltsin supporters at a movie thea-
ter in central Moscow. telling them
the president was mourning the
death. but that he spent yesterday at
his desk. A steady stream of cold
rain kept other rallies in the city
small and shon.

In several respects. the presi-
dent's team appeared on the offen-
sive.

strikes in 1989 and 1991 crippled

Chapman’s sister accuses
-NFL player of threats

 

By Gregory A. Hall
Editor in Chief

 

Pro sports' trash talk took a scary
twist in US. District Court in Lex-
ington yesterday. Former NFL de-
fensive back Lewis Billups ap-
peared before a magistrate
regarding allegations that he called
the sister of Washington Bullets

guard Rex Chapman and threatened
to end the career of the former UK

basketball star.

Billups. a former Green Bay
Packer and Cincinnati Bengal who
resides in Orlando. Fla. was arrest-
ed Sunday night in Lexington by
the FBI.

Jirn Arehart. chief of the criminal
division for the US. Attorney's of-
fice. requested that Billups be de-
tained without bail before a trial.

Speaker: Health care must be fair

 

By Jen Bryant
Contributing Writer

 

Health-care reform is more of an
issue of fairness and efficiency than
of control. and there are enough
problems with private-sector pro-
viders to justify giving the govem-
merit a chance to devise solutions a
University of Minnesota researcher
said yesterday.

Brian Dowd. an associate profes-
sor in the Institute for Health Ser-
vices Research at the University of
Minnesota. is at UK for three days
as the Visiting Humana Scholar to
address health-care reform issues.

Today‘s lecture will be held at 4
pm. in i48 College of Business and
Economics Building.

Dowd specializes in markets for
health-care services and the evalua-
tion of non-cxperimcmal data.

He also teaches in the Minnesota
institutes doctoral and master‘s de-

gree programs.

He said there is good reason for
students. particularly. to be con-
cerned about health care.

“There‘s a good reason not to be
concerned about it now most
people are young are healthy.“
Dowd said. But he said students
should be worried about fairness is-
sues.

Dowd pointed out that most stu-
dents do not join large companies
that offer health we after gradua-
tion.

They will he on their own trying
to find health coverage.

An unfortunate incident or diag-
nosis could cause their risk to be re-
defined or their coverage dropped
all together.

“Many of the people tint don't

have insurance don‘t need the same
kind of insurance that a 55-year-old
person needs." Dowd said.

“But reflect the fact that they
have a low probability of needing
services beyond preventive care."

Dowd said it would be hard to
project what type of actual reform
will come out of forthcoming
healthearc proposals from a special
committee headed by Hillary Rod-
ham Clinton. particularly after it is
passed through politically influen-
tial channels.

He also said that Gov. Brercton
Jones‘ current reform proposal will
be of interest to states that have
similar health-care plans.

Dowd‘s smell today. “Health-
carc Reform and the Role of the
Government." is sponsored by
UK's College of Business and Eco-
nomics and is free and open to the
public.

Billups wanted
a detention hear-
ing today. but
Cook granted a
motion by the
govemment to
delay the hear-
ing three days.

Magistrate
James Cook set »
a date for a
combined deten-
tion and prob-
able cause hearing for Thursday
morning at 10 am.

Arehart said he made the motion
to hold Billups without bail based
“on the fact that he’s a danger to the
community.“

Arehart said Billups is involved
in litigation in Florida and possibly
in Cincinnati. but couldn‘t say what
the charges against him were.

on their way home when they notice
a strange red light beyond trees
along the road.

Thinking it is just a fire or .i plane
crash. they venture closer. Iiouev-
er. there is no plane and no ordinary
fire. What they encounter Is it large
craft hovering overhead. pulsating
and glowing.

Curious and adventurous 'l‘raiis
Walker (I) B. Sweeney) steps out
of the truck for a closer look. While
his crew are screaming and begging
him to retuni. he is consumed with
awe.

A bolt of light shoots from the
craft toward Walton and knocks
him seemingly lifeless to the
ground. IIis crew flees. and by the
time his best friend Mike (Robert
Patrick) retunis for him. he has dis-
appeared.

What ensues is an extensive
search for Walton and a frustrated
investigation of his possible murder.

    

 

DIVERSIONS
Sweeney, Garner keep movie’s fire ablaze

(‘rew member Allan Dailis has
had a personal difference with Wal-
ton for quite some time. and Walton
had intended on marrying Mike's
17-year-old sister Dana. There is no
shortage of suspects. and with their
already incredible story, none are
excused from the scrutiny and whis-
perings of their small community
and of the international press.

Five days later. though. a funny
tiiirig happens —- Walton shows up.
naked and slimy. lie is barely able
to speak and his mind is haunted by
memories of experiences with the
beings that abducted him.

A lesser. though signifian toll
has been taken on his fellow new
members. Their already traumatized
lives are shaken by the ridicule of
the community. and Mike's mar-
riage has fallen apart. a situation
worsened by Walton‘s anger toward
Mike for leaving him in the woods.

"Fire in the Sky" begins an une-
ven account of the crew‘s story.
Their reaction to the events that
have just occurred seems forced
and artificial. as do the altercations
between the crew.

Their hysterics during their wit-
nessing of the craft seem less genu-

ine than silly (though I cannot begin
to suggest how to act when viewing
an alien attack). and the lack of dra-
matic impact during these scenes
leaves the film’s need for credibili-
ty somewhat unfulfilled.

Oddly enough. its credibility is
regained in the scenes that depict
just what happened in the craft —
the tests, the observation. and most
importantly. Walton’s interaction
with his new. bizarre surroundings
and with the creatures who have
taken him.

The creatures seem frighteningly
real, and what happens in the ship is
truly terrifying -— not for what is
being done. but for the fact that the
creature’s treatment of Walton so
easily resembles society‘s treatment
of laboratory animals. The similari-
ties are greater than the differences.

“Fire in the Sky“ is comparative
ly low on special effects. (This is no
“Star Wars“).

This serves as an asset. though.
since an F/X extravaganza might
have taken away from the psycho-
logical terror of the story. The ef-
fects are subtle and restrained, and
although by no measure unique, are
effective.

 

PHOTO COURTBV OF PARAMOUNT RECORDS

State Investigator Lt. Frank Wetters (James Garner, right) con-
fronts Travis Walton (D.B. Sweeney) after his disappearance in
‘Fire in the Sky.‘ The movie is based on a true story.

“Fire in the Sky" boasts a strong
cast. Robert Patrick (“Terminator
2") is very good in his role as Wal-
ton‘s best friend. He has the urgent
intensity of a young Martin Sheen
and a strong screen presence.

Also strong is D. B. Sweeney
(“The Cutting Edge“). His disturb-
ing encounter is painted well across
his expressive face. showing us true
fear.

Rounding out the cast are Kath-

leen Wiihoit (“Lorenzo's Oil”) as
Mike‘s estranged wife, Oscar nomi-

nee James Gamer. Craig Sheffer as
Allan Dailis (in a stark departure
from his quiet role in “A River

Historic project celebrates music of Franz Schubert

 

Staff reports

 

John Wusttnaui currently is en-
gaged in a historic six-year project.
touring the country perfonning
some 630 songs by Franz Schubert.
That is. when the University of Illi-
nois professor of piano is not ac—
companying Luciano Pavorotti in
recitals.

Wustman. together with five vo-
cal students from a Schubert class at
the Universrty. are continuing their

third year of this tour which will
culminate in 1097 — the 200th an—
niversary of Schubert’s birth.

They are appearing at the Otis A.
Singletary Center for the Arts to-
night at 8 for a free concert. They
will perform about 25 songs.

Schubert is acknowledged uni-
versally as the greatest songwriter
that ever was. Before he died at the
early age of 31. he composed be-
tween 580 and 720 songs. 'Ihis fig-
ure is disputed because some songs
are simply variations of others.

Sherman’s Alley by Gibbs & Voigt

His great innovation was the mar-
riage of music. poetry. theater and
folk; in addition. be increased the
role of the piano to that of an equal
with the voice.

That could explain why this mon-
umental project is the brainchild of
a pianist. albeit one of the handful
of pianists in the country who have
made big names for themselves in
the usually thankless role of accom-
panist.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The rea-
son Utah coach Rick Majerus is
picking UK to win this NCAA
Toumament is Aminu Tirnberlake.

Yes, that's the same Tirnberlake
who‘s been sitting at the far end of
the Wildcats' bench this season,
sometimes even farther down the
pine than Northern Kentucky trans-
fer Todd Svoboda.

What in creation does Timber~
lake, who played in less than half of
UK‘s games this season and never
more than 10 minutes, have to do
with the Wildcats chances at win-
ning it all?

“I remember when I was at Ball
State being excited about this kid
Aminu Timberlake." said Majerus,
who coached at Ball State before
coming to Utah. “He was a hell of a
player in Chicago. They don’t even
use him."

Exactly.

Sunday night, Rodrick Rhodes,
the high school All-American who
started at forward in UK's first 19
games in this his freshman season,
did not play a minute.

Rhodes is just one super-talented
player relegated to a supporting role
on this UK team.

UK is deep. Deeper than any of
the other 15 teams left in the tour-
nament?

It‘s hard to discern. Utah forward
Josh Grant says probably.

“'Ihe reason why Kentucky is so
good is because they‘re very unself-
ish," he said. “With Kentucky, the
sum is greater than its pans. They
are a fine team, with team being the
key word there."

Grant learned the hard way that
focusing on junior forward Jamal
Mashbum, the team's primary star
who will skip his senior season to
enter the NBA draft. is a big mis-
take.

“He’s got a great surrounding
cast and. as l leamed, if you double
him, they‘ll go to their other post
guy." Grant said.

Majerus agreed.

“We probably concentrated too
much on Mashbum, and then Ken-
tucky changed their game plan a lit-
tle bit," Majerus said. “First of all,
we weren‘t expecting that (Jeff)
Brassow kid to start."

Jared Prickett hampered by a toe
injury suffered during the Wild-
cats’ win over Rider College Fri-
day, UK coach Rick Pitino did his
job. He started the next guy. Of
course, most teams don‘t have
Brassow and Rhodes as backups at
small forward.

In each game, it‘s been someone
different stepping forward. Early in
the season it was Rhodes, who
scored 27 points to lead UK past
Georgia Tech and then earned
MVP honors in the ECAC Holiday
Festival.

Against Indiana it was Travis
Ford, draining the threes in the
clutch and finishing with 29 points
to give UK a close win over the
now No. l-ranked Hoosiers.

As the season unwound, Prickett,
who replaced Rhodes at small for-
ward, was getting the job done
with his hustle and knack for re-
bounding. Now it’s sophomore
center Andre Riddick swatting
back shots and the opposition at
just the right time, tournament
time.

"Our depth is a factor," Pitino
said.

An understatement, at least when
compared to Majems‘ feelings
about the Wildcats.

Looking at the rest of the field
—— including No. I seeds Indiana
and Michigan which struggled to
win their second—round games
against Xavier and UCLA, respec-
tively — UK’s depth may be a big
factor as the tournament wears on.

“They're very tough to play.
They're a Final Four team, and I
hope they win it because it’s nice
to say you played against the na-
tional champions,“ Majerus said.

UK‘s next step to the Final Four
comes Thursday in Charlotte, N .C.,
when the Wildcats face the fifth—
seeded Demon Deacons of Wake
Forest.

Game time is set for about 10
pm, depending on the length of
the 7:30 game between Western
Kentucky and Florida State.

Students should force
S GA Senate candidates
to work for their votes

EDITORIAL

This year yet another crop of students has placed names on the
ballot to run for the Student Government Association Senate.

Often these candidates slide into their seats with very little trou-
ble. but this year that must end.

Like every other year. these students soon will begin walking
around campus attacking unsuspecting students, asking them for
their votes next week.

Some will be asking you to put them back in their chairs so they
may sit and do nothing again. but others will be out there because
they really do want to facilitate change. Regardless of their motives,
you should ask them a few simple questions.

When they approach you and beg for your vote. let them tell you
why they want to be in SGA. Then ask them how they will make
the senate effective.

Ask them why SGA should exist and how they will make it an or-
ganization worth having on campus.

Ask them how they will be held accountable to students.

If these students are going to spend their time walking around
campus campaigning. we at least can give them something to do.
The chance of their doing anything after next week is minimal.

CONTINUING EDITORIAL

The Kentucky Kernel Editorial Board is continuing efforts to dis-
band the Student Government Association. We are encouraging stu-
dents to sign the petition below to create a student referendum to
abolish the Student Government Association and replace it with a
more accountable student council.

Sign your name to the ballot below and get your friends to do the
same. Mail it. free of charge in campus mail. to the Kentucky Ker-
nel office (26 Grehan Journalism Building. 40506-0042). or drop it
off during business hours. A more efficient system of student repre-
