long to realize how tough that job would be. But now.
after years of scrutiny and with UK headed to its first
bowl game since 1999. Mitch Barnhart credits his
perseverance to something much stronger than football:

FAMILY AND

FAITH

Story by Chris DeLotell

became athletic director at UK in July 2002. walked into his

kitchen after a morning jog on New Year‘s Eve 2002 and saw
his daughter Kirby. then 15. holding the Lexington Herald-Leader.
Tears streamed down her cheeks. He knew why she was crying. and he
felt powerless.

After a 7-5 football season in 2002. head coach Guy Morriss left for
Baylor University in December. thrusting Barnhart into a heavily scru-
tinized coaching search. When he settled on Rich Brooks. who had
been out of coaching for three years. the move was criticized. After a
reporter discovered Brooks had committed NCAA violations while
coaching at the University of Oregon in the 1970s. the criticism escalat-
ed. especially since UK‘s program was already facing NCAA sanctions
for its own violations. On Dec. 31. 2002. columnist Mark Story wrote
that the incident raised questions about Bamhart’s ability to do the job.

The column was the beginning of a two-year span that would not
only test Bamhart‘s ability to do his job. but also test the two most im-
portant things in his life: his family and his faith.

As Barnhart walked into his kitchen that moming. he embraced his
daughter.

“That is not important." he said to her. referring to the column.
“Does what they wrote or think change what you know about me?"

“Absolutely not." she said.

Bamhart‘s extended family was in town to celebrate the holiday
season. Nobody knew what to do. The negative publicity floored the
entire family. and though he tried to shake off his hurt. he couldn‘t.

“He was trying to put on a good show for us. but you could tell
deep down he was really upset." Kirby said. “I knew who he was. but
nobody else knew or wanted to know."

Bamhart and his family were so affected by the outcry that they

Mitch Bamhan knew something was wrong. Bamhart. 48. who

contemplated leaving UK.

“We sat there like. ‘Are we sure (we want to stay)?” Bamhart‘s
wife. Connie. said. “It would have been very easy to say. 'We don't
need this.”

But the Bamharts leaned on their strong faith and decided to stay
in Lexington.

“We said our prayers. and we said ”No. we are not going to let this
alter what we’ve been called here to do.” Connie said.

“This is where we're called to be. and we'll be here until we're not
supposed to be here anymore. We‘re not going to give up easily."

”lhat “ill never happen again”

Persistence was a lesson Barnhart learned early in life. as a 12-
year-old grade-school football player. Barnhart's dad. Scott. was his
football coich and his best friend. Before one sixth-grade game. he
shifted his son from middle linebacker to outside linebacker — a posi-
tion Barnhart didn't know how to play. He was lost.

“They ran ‘toss sweep' about 95 times that game. and about 80 of
them right over me." Barnhart said.

After the game. his dad didn‘t feel like Barnhart had given a full
effort: he thought his son had quit. In a calm voice. he questioned how
hard his son had played. What Barnhart called “the quretcst ride in the
history of mankind" followed. and as the car approached his house. he
said it “couldn’t get in the garage fast enough." Barnhart quickly went
to his room. and reflected on what his dad had said.

By Linsan Li
news®kykernalcom

Months after the last incident
in a series of private information
leaks, UK has not made any poli-
cy or personnel changes to en-
hance its data security.

A series of four data-leaking
incidents took place over four
months from May to August this
year.

According to the Privacy
Rights Clearinghouse Web site.
these incidents compromised the
confidentiality of more than 8.500
UK students‘ and employees‘ So—
cial Security numbers.

UK spokesman Jay Blanton
said no UK employee involved in
the data leaks was reprimanded.

“These were all accidents. and
accidents do happen." he said.

One of the four incidents was
a theft case. according to Privacy
Rights Clearinghouse. UK em—
ployees were not responsible for
the incident. Blanton said. The
other three were accidents.

The only theft case was re-
ported on May 26 after a profes~
sor's flash drive was taken. The

The founder of UK 's SHIFT speaks out about what religion means to him

    

By Meghan Cain

feaErEEkykernel com

Throne/mu] Illr' .\(’Il1(‘.\'ft‘l'. I/ll' Kernel is
.i/mt/i'gliliiig i'tirioiis rumpus [cur/cry. This
week ire (Il‘c‘ featuring Adam Leedy. the
president (llldgfrlllltc/(T of UK SHIFT. NW 50'
t'i'ci‘yj/nr lz'imiuiii'siii'. Intellectual and Free
T/iriiiclil. Leer/v ii (HI electrical engineering
junior. This is I/N‘ group's .\'(’r'(III([.\‘(‘Ill(’.\l(’l' (II
(.’I\'.

Q. What is SHIFT?

SHIFT is an organization for students
who believe in the power of reason. We
work to convince people on campus that we
think about things and rely on human rea—
soning instead of the supematural. We are
not hating on religion. We are more about
being accepting and open minded.

One goal I had \y hen I created SHIFT
was to create a discussion forum for people
with worldviews similar to mine. Most of
my friends are religious. and I am obviously
not. I wanted to meet people with different
‘s'ICWs and start an organi/ation where we
could all get together and work toward a
common goal.

Q. What goals is the group working to-
ward?

()ne of our main goals is to promote
the power of human reason and freethink-
mg One thing I have seen in society is that
there is a negative connotation toward athea
ists. agnostics and humanists. We want to
show that we lane a moral foundation. too.

We don‘t scream about hating god, We
do community ser\ice activities and have
lectures that bring this view across.

Q. What inspired you to begin this or-
ganization‘.’

‘l'hcre are a lot of (‘hristian tll‘gillll/tt'
tions on campus and other religious orgain
Iations like the Muslim Student ,i\\\0ClttIItili
and Hillel. I thought. why isn‘t there one for
my humanism and free thoughtl‘

9. How has SHIFT changed your point
0 view of l‘K's campus?

Before I started Sllll’l'. I thought cam
pus was pretty conservative as far as rcli
gion I didn‘t think there were a lot of pco
ple l'ls' with the same view that l have.

Being a part of Sllll’l’ has allowed me
to see a lot of people vy ho haye the same
conuictions as I do. I go to other organiza~
trons and tell them about SHII’I‘. and they
get really excited.

 
 
 

Q..What has shaped your views?

i.
is My grandfather is a Baptist minister.

and l was raised with a concept of religion. I
was very active with the church until my
sophomore year of high school when I start—
ed thinking about issues. particularly social
issues. I started to realize that my personal
views differed a lot from what they were
teaching me in Sunday school and at church.

I decided that if I didn‘t believe in all the
things the church believed in I shouldn‘t be
a part of it. so I left the church. I tried to de—
cide what I would personally believe. I did
some reading about other religions. and l dc»
cided that ifl did not believe in one faith. by
the same logic. I could not say that I be"
Iieved in other religions.

I reached a period of agnosticism. and I
slowly went from this to being an atheist. I
am not sure about that transition. but it was
a gradual thing.

Q. How do you feel about religion?

I think it is no different than any other
superstition. If someone has cancer and they
say they are going to pray to God. to heal
them. to me. that is no different than if they
decided to hold on to a rabbit's foot instead.

Q. Do you feel free thinking absent of
re igion is important?

The only way to understand the truth
behind anything is to question it and apply
your own knowledge and reasoning power
to it to try and figure it out. I am not sure
religion allows for this.

In the future. most things will be ex—
plained. so we won‘t need any religion or
superstitions to believe. If some things are
unexplainable. some tend to attribute these
to an outside force or something that is su-
pernatural. but I think merything is explain-
able through science.

There are an infinite amount of things
we can't explain right now. but that is not to
say sortie day We will have valid explanation
to why things happen. For example. a long
time ago people thought the sun rising was a
miracle. so they attributed it to a sun god.
But now we know why it scientifically hap-
pens. so there is no need for a sun god.

Q. How do you feel about faith?

Faith still falls into the same category
of religion. I am not sure that faith in some
higher power is necessary for our existence.
I do have faith in my self and the human
race. and I do believe that humans are capa-
ble of amazing things. But faith in some-
thing supcmatural. like (iod. I don‘t see as
necessary.

. What do you think about morality
an ethics?

s

l have a problem every now and again

ED MATTHEWS | STAFF
Adam Leedy founded SHIFT. the Socrety for Humanistic, Intellectual and Free Thought to find students at UK with views similar to his Leedy says
SHIFT is a group that allows members to question religion and faith through discussion and debate.

with people thinking that if there is no reli-
gion. there is no basis for morality.

I think our morals and ethics come from
our everyday experiences. I don‘t want
someone to kill me. so I am not going to kill
someone. I don‘t want someone to rape my
female friends. so I won‘t rape. I don‘t see
why I have to think I am going to hell ifI do
something bad.

. Do you think there are there many
free thinkers in Kentucky?

"* , When you look at campus and the
different student organizations. a vast ma—
jority of the people are Christians. Aside
from this. there are other religious organiza—
tions that are equally as important.just less
populous.

As far as people following secular think-
ing. it is a pretty small number compared to
the size of the campus. There are more that I
thought. though. When I first got (to UK). I
knew just one other person with views simi—
lar to mine.

After I started SHIFT. I saw a decent
number of people with similar vieWs to me.
This made me feel better about the campus.
It made me realize that there is always
somewhere to fit in.

Q. Has SHIFT affected this trend on
campus?

Our goal is not to convert but to show
people there is another way and to make our
presence known. We haven‘t chipped away
at the Christians. and that is not what we
want to do.

It has maybe changed the trend because
it created a place for those without religious
convictions. Students can come and sit
down and meet people similar to them-
selves. This is very important.

Q. Who has affected you belief system?

is t The way that I shape my thoughts and
views is a continuing process. I was curious
about a lot of religions and why people be—
lieve what they believe. I did a lot of re
search and thinking for myself. A lot of
things helped and inspired me but not one
particular person.

THEFT

Continued from page 1

of about 6,500 current and
former students. including So-
cial Security numbers, class
rosters and grades.

The other incidents were
scattered throughout the sum-
mer.

In May. personal infonna-
tion of current and former UK
employees, including Social
Security numbers, was inad-
vertently accessible online for
19 days.

From Aug. 11 to Aug. 14.
about 630 students‘ names and
Social Security numbers were
listed on the university‘s fi-
nancial aid Web site.

The last data leak took
place in the department of ge-
ography.

About 80 geography stu-
dents received an e-mail on
Aug. 14 through a listserv
telling them who their advis-
ers were and listing the stu-
dents‘ social security numbers.

When asked whether these
cases reflected carelessness. if
not negligence. on the part of
respective UK employees,
Blanton insisted that these
cases were also accidents.

Accidents or not, T. Lynn
Williamson, UK‘s senior asso-
ciate general counsel, dis—
agreed with the administra-
tion‘s leniency.

Williamson blamed these
incidents on the carelessness
and lack of sufficient training
of the employees.

“Generally I think that
people should be dealt with in
appropriate discipline."
Williamson said. referring to
the UK employees involved in
the information breaches.

A member of the UK legal
office. Williamson is currently
rewriting the confidentiality
policy for the personal infor-
mation of students, which will
have to be approved before
taking effect.

“I would urge you to look
across the country at other in-
stitutions." Blanton said. “Not
to downplay those of our own.

 

but many of them had much
bigger breaches.“

What is more important.
he said. is to make sure that
these breaches never happen
again.

An investigative commit-
tee on campus information se-
curity formed as a result of
these incidents late in the
summer.

The committee includes
members of both the depart-
ment of information technolo-
gy and the administration. Its
goal is to consider new poli-
cies and procedures for the
administration to ensure that
personal data isn‘t jeopardized
again.

Frank Butler. the vice
president of administration. is
the head of this investigative
committee. Butler could not
be reached for comment.

The committee has not
passed any policy change. said
Blanton, and the administra—
tion has not received any sug-
gestions about policy change.

However, the committee
continues to meet and hopes
to have a recommendation for
the administration within the
next 90 days. he said.

UK may not need any pol-
icy change to improve its data
security. said Doyle Friskney,
associate vice president for in-
formation technology. because
the university is in the process
of implementing a new com-
puting and information system
called IRIS (Integrated Re-
source Information Systems).

Since October. Social Se-
curity numbers are no longer
identification numbers for stu—
dents as a result of the imple—
mentation of the $60 million
dollar project.

“Professors will no longer
use students' social security
numbers. and that will prevent
these incidents from happen-
ing again," Friskney said.

Blanton is also counting
on the technological changes
to make a big difference.

“The new technology will
hopefully take care of these
problems.” he said. “They'll
help minimize security
breaches significantly."
