Search committee members said
Roselle's candidacy was attractive
because of his background on the

Also appealing was the fact that
Rose le has served at three land-

“I think they picked a superb fel-

Roselle received a doctorate de-
gree in mathematics from Duke

Kuder received the top recommen-

narrowing the number of finalists

Kuder said the aim of student af-
fairs is not only to provide services
to the students and the University;
he also wants to ensure that all edu-
cational opportunities are fully de-
veloped,

For instance financial aid can
provide an opportunity to teach
money management and residence
halls can be a place to teach lead-
ership skills and ways to relate with
other people.

(lreenwell said one of the things
she liked most about Roselle was his
active support of student involve—
ment in academic policy making.
When she first met him. she said
Roselle came up. shorik her hand
and said. "I was glad to see that
they had a student on the search
committee "

From that moment. Greenwell
was sold. 'l‘hat comment ”had an ev-
erlasting effect on me.” she said

Roselle also overwhelmingly has
had the support of the faculty. “Stu»
dents and faculty both will find he‘s
willing to listen and equally willing
to act on good ideas." said Raymond
Belts. a faculty representative on
the board.

Roselle's "sterling qualities“ are
his “open-inindedness. accessibility
and a keen interest in academic pro-
grams." Bells said. "1 think he is
the sort of person who will closely
analyze a situation. weigh the choic<
es and act decisively "

BOT designates law professor
as new academic ombudsman

By I). \V II. \SSERT
Senior Staff Writer

William 11. Fortune. a UK law pro-
fessor. was named the new academ—
ic ombudsman by the L'K Board of
Trustees yesterday.

Fortune was appointed by [K
President Otis A. Singletary to re-
place Charles N. Byers. an educa-
tion professor. who began his term
before the 1985-86 academic year.

Singletary said Fortune “has wide
experience in related areas. and we
are confident he will do a good job.”

“Fortune has an awful lot of expe-
rience working with students. an ex»
cellent personality . . and an excela
lent reputation as a professor.” said
.lack Kemp. who chaired the C0111
mittee to find Byers' replacement

The committee began collecting
names before Christmas. said
Kemp. a professor in animal sci-

to narrow down."

After interviews and screening by
the Senate Council. the number of
candidates was reduced to six. three

ed to Singletary.

"We were looking for someone
who had a good academic back-
ground who was interested in stu-
dents. who had the type of personali-
t_v to deal with faculty and students
and who had the time and interest
lto do the jobl.“ Kemp said,

"iFortunel had a familiarity with
the system that was quite unusual."
said Karen Skeens. a student mem-
ber of the committee and executive
vice president of the Student Gov-
ernment Association.

“It takes a certain type of person-
ality to be an ombudsman." Kemp
said.

“iFortunet really impressed the
committee as being genuine and sin-
cere las well as the fact that he)
really wanted the job." Kemp said.
“He's somebody who can make stu-
dents feel at ease in his office.“

Skeens agreed. sayiru Fortune is
“a very likable person. He‘s ex-
tremely intelligent. but 1 don‘t think
that‘s a barrier."

Fortune‘s appointment begins July
1. and he said he wants to start pre-
paring now.

“1 really want to. over the balance
of this semester talk to a lot of
people — student leaders. associate
deans—totrytogetasemeofaca-

Fortune said there are basically
two kinds of cases Wt before
the academic ombutbman. One in-
volves alleged Wmdolm on the
part of conduit: such as plagiarism

and cheating. while the second in-
volves the area of student academic
rights. as in students thinking they
were graded unfairly.

By gaining an overall sense of
academic concerts and problems
Fortune said he wants to work with
students and teachers to reduce
problems in academics.

“1 don‘t want (the officel to be
just a reactionary thiig I‘d like to
be out and about as much as possi-
ble.“ Fortune said. "I ll certainly be

The Cats were having trouble
cranking up their own offense. be-
cause lL' starting pitcher Scott Zim—
mcrman was cranking up the heat.

I'K could post nothing but goose
eggs for five innings as Zimmerman
threw some heavy smoke.

"i felt good the first couple of in-
nings.‘ Zimmerman said. "I was
throwing hard and I think my fast-
ball was really effective early.“

But even with his team's bats
being sawed off. UK coach Keith
Madison wasn't concerned.

“In early games like this, there‘s
not too many pitchers who are going
to go the distance." Madison said.
“I knew it our hitters would keep
battling. they would get to their
pitchers “

t'K finally did get to Indiana when
Zimmerman headed to the showers.
His replacement. Eric Jaquos, was
greeted for a run in his first inning
of work.

Wildcat shortstop Darin Rieman
tied the score in the bottom of the
fifth with a towering sacrifice fly
that scored second baseman Scott
Pruitt

In the meeting.

“We’ve been slow with the bats
early, and today it took us four or
five innings to hit the ball," UK
catcher Robbie Buchanan said. “We
just had to adjust."

While the Cats were adjusting in
the box, Hudson was cruising
smoothly on the mound. He struck
out the last two Hoosiers in the top
of the seventh to give UK some mo~
mentum heading into the dugout.

The Wildcats promptly grabbed
the momentum and exploded into
the lead.

Pinch hitter David Ray opened the
bottom of the seventh by plunking a
01 pitch into the right-field corner
for a double. Bobby Olinick followed
with a looping single into short cen-
ter that sent pinch runner John
Hampton to third.

Buchanan then shot a sacrifice fly
to center to score Hampton. The run
put the Cats ahead for good.

Hudson rolled through three Hoo-
sier batters in the eighth inning but
turned the pitching chores over to
Tom Deller, who recorded the save.
in the final inning.

four Lady Gators combined for 63 of
Florida’s 76 points and almost
caught up with the Kats in the end.

“We need to play smart, aggres-
sive basketball in the tournament,“
Hall said.

UK is led by Croley and senior
center Debbie Miller, who are aver-
aging 17.8 and 14.4 points, respec-
tively.

And if the Kats are to be effective
in the tournament, Miller will have
to turn in a stronger performance
than the one she turned in Friday.

Against Georgia, she netted only
eight points and was relatively inef-
fective under the basket with only
seven rebounds.

But Hall said she doesn‘t think the
5-1 senior‘s Friday performance was
indicative of her capabilities.

“She just put too much pressure in

herself and didn’t play as well,"
Hall said.

The SEC Tournament hasn’t exac-
tly hoen the place for the Kats over
the past years. UK won the title
back in 1982, but the last four years
the Kats have been eliminated in the
first round.

With six SEC teams currently
ranked in the Top 20, Hall doesn’t
think this year‘s tourney will be any
easier.

“Every team is tough, and there
will be at least five, and possibly as
many of seven of us, who will go on
to NCAA play," Hall said.

Should UK defeat the Lady Gators
tonight, it would face Georgia, the
conference‘s second‘best team.

In order to change its luck in the
tournament, Hall feels her team
needs to go into it with "little deter-
miiiation."

 

Our three-year and
two -year scholarships won’t
make college easier.

Just easier to pay for.

UK’s record shows
as clock ticks down,
Wildcats think up

By TODD JONES
Senior Staff Writer

It was the first basketball game of
the year, and the only sound inside
Rupp Arena was the celebrating
coming from the visitor's bench.

Austin Peay held a shocking 69-68
lead in the final minute of play. The
UK players looked stunned as they
huddled around coach Eddie Sutton.

But Sutton pulled out his clip—
board and told his players they
would not lose. They didn’t. UK won
70—69.

Derrick McKey's turn-around
jumper with just 1:23 left on the
clock put. his Alabama club up by
six points over the visiting Wildcats.

The Tide’s student section rocked.
but Sutton gathered his Cats in the
deafening noise and told them they
would not lose. They didn’t. UK won
70-69.

The seats were draining in Rupp
Arena. Tennessee held a 10-point
lead with only 73 ticks left on the
clock. All looked lost for the Cats.

But Sutton called a time-out,
called his players Over and told
them they would not lose. They
didn’t. UK won 91-84.

Eddie Sutton is not a prophet. He's
not a magician. Not even a bad ma-
gician. And, except for the buckeye
he now keeps in his coat pocket, he’s
not even superstitiom.

Sutton is just one coach who be-
lievos in the power of positive think-
ing. And his wishful thoughts are
rubbing off on his Wildcats.

“Coach Sutton tells us he’s not
going to let us lose this ball game,"
senior guard James Blackmon said.
“He tells us everything will be al-
right if we just play within the sys-
tem and don’t make any stupid mis-
takds."

“It makes us strong and keeps up
our spirit,“ junior guard Ed Da-
vender said. “We just keep that
spirit and keep fighting. You've al-
ways got to keep playing hard."

For more examples of UK’s grit
and determination, one needs only to
look back on this past weekend.
Kentucky entertained the likes of
Ole Miss and Oklahoma and, in both
cases, had the UK fans knawing at
their nails.

On Saturday, the Wildcats trailed
the Rebels by one point when fresh-
man Rex Chapman danced away
from Ronnie Sims in midair and
swished a double-pump 12-foot jump-
er at the buzzer. The shot gave the
Cats a 64-63 win.

The heroics continued Sunday
when UK perfectly executed an out-
of-bounds play in the final nine sec-
onds and Richard Madison banked
in a layup to slay the Oklahoma
Sooners 75-74.

 

“Coach Sutton tells us
he’s not going to let us
lose this ball game. He
tells us everything will
be alright if we just
play within the system
and don’t make any

stupid mistakes.”
James Blackmon,
UK guard

With the two heart-stopping victo-
ries, the Cats finished the season
with a 18-9 record. And they greatly
enhanced their chances of getting
into the NCAA tournament.

But Sutton believes the tight wins
did something more for his team.
They let his players know they can
handle the crunch time of tourna-
ment games.

“By winning the two games over
the weekend, it gave our players
some confidence that they needed,”
Sutton said.

Some players want the ball in
their hands when the clock is ticking
down. But not everyone.

For those who would rather hide
when the game is on the line, Sutton
said confidence is the key. And con-
fidence is gained only from good ex-
periences.

“Y0u accomplish (confidence)
over a period of time." Sutton said.
“You think positive thoughts. And
you try to build on past reinforce-
ment. The more you obtain success,
the more you believe."

Sutton said his teams have always
spent a lot of time practicing last-
second situations. And he knows
plenty of clever plays to draw up at
the end of the game.

But he said neither will help a
team if the players don’t think they
can win.

“You got to believe. Sutton said.
“Y0u never have any doubts. You
tell the players in the huddle, we re
going to win, we're going to do it.‘

“And it‘s something that if you in-
still in the players, after time,
they’ll believe. If you believe, good
things will happen to you."

The Cats have heeded Sutton‘s
words this season and have been
successful. Seven of UK’s 18 victo-
ries have been by five points or loss.
That’s the difference between 18-9
and 11-17 — the difference between
the NCAA and the NIT.

“It shows a lot for this hall club,“
Blackmon said. “When it coma
down to the end. we don't quit. We
just keep fighting, because we can
win under pressure.“

The UK Board of Trustees yester-
day confirmed a Council on Higher
Education ruling that will raise tu—
ition and fees for UK students to
$706 beginning next semester.

UK students currently pay $666
per semester for tuition and fees.

Under the ruling, outof-state stu-
dents will pay $2.026 next semester,
compared to the current fee of
$1.906.

Since 1981, the CHE has set tuition
rates for state universities every
two years.

The CHE set up the new tuition
rates in November of 1985. said Ken

Walker, deputy executive director of
finance for the CHE.

The decision to raise tuition rates
in the state is “based on an analysis
of tuition rates at benchmark insti-
tutions and per capita income" in
bordering states with benchmark in-
stitutions, Walker said.

“We think the tuition policy
has been successful «in keeping) tu-
ition as low as possible,“ he added.

At the BOT meeting, Donna
Greenwell. Student Government As-
sociation president and student
member of the BOT. said. “I realize
that there has been a substantive de-
crease in financial aid while tuition
continues to rise, and thus l'm vot-
ing for this bill. “

However.“l feel it is imperative

Lhatifwemustpaylfortlnsin-
crease), everybody (connected with
UK) must pay proportionately."

After the meeting, Greenwell said
she “wanted to do what (she knew)
would work . "

SGA tonight will consider a bill,
sponsored by members of Socially
Concerned Students, that calls for a
tuition freeze.

The Kentucky Kernel reported on
Jan, 30 that the group calls for a
freeze on UK tuition costs. “citing
the fact that tuition has doubled
since 1981 while inflation has risen
only 21 percent.“

Walker. however. said that tuition
rates were not based upon inflation.

Walker said funding for higher ed-

ucation comes from two sources:

state funding and the consumer
the student.

“The council and council staff are
sensitive to maintain that proper
balance" between state and consumv
er funding, Walker said “I think the
council will be sensitive to the
input" of student groups

The new tuition rates. though. will
affect more than Just the undergrad
uate students at [K

Tuition fees for resident graduate
students will increase 830 to $776
under the (‘HE ruling, according to
a press release NonreSident grad-
uate students will pay $2.236. as
compared to the current total of
$2.086.
