KENTUCKY INDEPENDENT SINCE 1971 NEWShytes Senate denies ‘tamily cap' tor weltai'e \\'ASI ll.\"(iT()N 7— l’leeding warnin ts that a national welfare “family cap" would t rive up abortions and punish poor families, the Senate derailed a conservative push yesterday to deny additional cash payments to single mothers who have more children. Twenty Republicans sided with every Demo— , crat as the Senate approved an amendment by Sen. Pete Domenici. 66—34, to strip a family cap policy from the Republican blueprint to overhaul the nation's welfare programs. Conservatives said the government, if it is ever going to bring down the rising rates of ille riti— mate births, must stop subsidizing the “reck ess, irresponsible" behavior of single women who ask taxpayers to support their children.

W'ethington also added that he believes UK has made many considerable advances in its doctoral pro- grams since the study was done in 1993. Also, \Vethington said this report is extremely timely because he has now set up a committee to study the effectiveness of the graduate programs at UK. “The (graduate) committee has not been specifi- cally charged with studying this report, but I'm sure it will come into play," \Vethington said. “That and how UK’s programs relate and com- pare to programs across the country.” He said the graduate programs’ enrollment has grown from 18.4 percent ofoverall enrollment to 23 percent between 198‘) and 1994.

The National Research Council is a private, non— profit institution that provides science and technolo- gy advice under a congressional charter. The 74(l—page report it put out examines the qual- ity of more than 3,600 research-based doctoral pro— grams in 41 fields at 274 universities. It is the coun— cil's first comprehensive study of doctoral programs since 1982. The most highly rated doctoral program in the state was the pharmacology program at UK, which placed in the top quarter ofall programs nationally. UK also earned above average ratings for its English, biochemistry, ecology and psychology pro— grams and for its cellular biology program in the Chandler Medical Center. “I’m delighted we had some programs that were ranked highly," said President Charles \Vethington. “And whenever reputational ratings or rankings A study of doctoral programs at universities across the United States rated only a small number of UK’s programs as above average. However, top University officials say the study is not completely relevant to UK’s current climate. Gerry Bramwell, UK vice president for research and graduate studies, said the study by the National Research Council was done in 1993, and a lot has changed in UK’s doctorate program since then. Bramwell said the graduate program has doubled its research dollars in the last five years, especially in the last two. And he said he thinks significant resource increas— es lead to growth in faculty as well as diverse and new ideas.

The voice crackled through the loud- speaker as class started — volleyball try—outs would begin after school. Seventh-grader Molly Dreisbach, chatting with friends, figured: why not? It could be fun. So she went. About a dozen years later, the 6-foot—2 Dreisbach is captain and star of the UK vol— leyball team. Entering her senior year, she is nearing the top of several Wildcat career records, including kills, block assists and attack attempts. And, lest we forget, she’s also an Academ- ic All-American. Destiny? Some would write off Dreisbach’s inci- dental introduction to sports. Purely hap~ penstance, they would say. , But it was bound to happen. Sooner or 1 later, Dreisbach was going to play.

Crabtree will still keep SGA informed about national lobbying efforts, she said. She is also a leader of the National Association of Students for Higher Education, which is lobby- ing Congress for support of student loans. Her involvement will continue in that organization, she said. Crabtree and a panel of nine other student activists from campuses across the United States met with Clinton on Monday durin a one—hour, round table discussion about Republican propos— als in Congress to make student loans more expensive.

He captained the 1974 UK football team as a linebacker and later played for the Buffalo Bills and the Philadelphia Eagles. The third-oldest child, Andy Dreisbach, is redshirting this year as a linebacker for the UK football team. He also lettered in wrestling for three years in high school. It’s tough to be a redshirt this year, he says. He practices hard all week, but doesn’t get a chance to perform on Saturday. Although he often gets advice from his older brother, who has just finished his redshirt season —— at Michigan. The older brother, Scott Dreisbach, is now the starting quarterback for the , Wolverines. “It was never hard trying to find a pick-up game," Andy recalled after a prac- tice recently.
