Not on campus

Not anytime

soon

Let's figure all of the
current students on

campus will be out of

here in four years.
Yeah, right! if this is
the case, let's figure
out what all of us
students will never
see, in my opinion at
least!

A Seaton Center that
does not utilize duct
tape.

A quarterback able to

accomplish what Tim
Couch did.

Tree rat's (Squirrels)
that are in short
supply or do not

insist on trying to eat

your shoe laces.

A Kernel that is
appreciated by
students for its news
stories.

A UK-VlP system that
you can get through
easily just as your
registration window
opens.

A dirty campus, as
soon as the tour
season begins. (high
school seniors
touring campus)

Lower arena seats for
the students - wanna

set tuition by
benchmark
universities? Let's
follow them outright
then and give us
what we deserve for
the increase in
tuition and kick the
rich non-cheerers
out!

Doors that can easily
be opened in the
Classroom Building.

Stairs leading to
Funkhouser that are
not falling apart.

Cops who realize they
are writing the
students for
infractions that are
probably less serious
than what they did in
college (if they
went).

A student tuition that
can be paid by credit
card.

24-hour visitation in
dorms. As if kicking
her out at midnight
means that sex won't
happen on campus.
God forbid.

Parking lots near the
library that you won't
have to pay to get in.
Hint: If you want us
to study, encourage.
don't discourage.

A building in the
middle of campus
where you can rent
cots by the minute.
May I suggest at a
rate of $.01?

A Free Speech Area
where people speak,
and not yell and
accost you.

A sidewalk near POT
where you can walk
without leaning into
the wind at a 10
degree angle

mllIIatts given 10 years in prison

Punishment: Former UK football player receives
prison sentence for deaths in truck accident

By Michael Downs

ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR

SOMERSET Jason Watts
was sentenced to to years in
prison yesterday at the Pulaski
County District Court.

The small court room held a
relaxed atmosphere before the
sentencing started. Media repre-
sentatives outnumbered friends.
family and community observers
by more than 2-to-l. Reporters
and cameramen chatted with
each other as if things were busi-
ness as usual. while the Watts
family held hands and waited for
their son to enter.

Danielle Steinmetz. the sister-
in-law of the late Artie Steinmetz.
and an unidentified woman sat in

the front bench next to a line of
newspaper photographers. Stein»
metz and (‘hristopher Brock were
killed in a Nov. 15. 1998 car wreck
when Watts lost control of his
truck and crashed.

The. room fell silent when
Watts entered the courtroom.
wearing a navy blue prison junip-
suit and stainless steel shackles.
Watts had his eyes remained fixed
upon his feet as he walked in front
of the judge's bench and took his
seat. just steps away from a firing
squad of television cameras.

After presiding Judge Daniel
J. ‘v'entures began the sentencing.
he asked Watts' attorney James
Lowry if he had any statements
to make in Watts" defense.

Lowry spoke to great lengths

about Watts‘ willingness to accept
responsibility for the crimes he
was being charged with.

"When this accident
happened. the very first
thing he told us was ‘I‘m
at fault. I don‘t have to
have a trial.“' Lowry
said. quoting Watts.

He also spoke about
Watts‘ recent speaking
engagements. where he
has spoken to groups of
school children about the
dangers of drinking and
driving. He said that he
and Watts were requested
for the engagements and did not
seek them out.

Lowry said some have made
claims that the speaking engage-
ments indicate preferential
treatment for Watts. who would
otherwise be in jail. Watts delivu
cred the speeches because he
wanted to. and because the court

Watts

 

allowed him to. not out of any
arrangement for a lighter sen-
tence. he said.
“If the court feels that
this is preferential treat
ment. we will be glad to
send him tojail.” Loni-y
said. "It‘s easy to sit in
jail."
Lowry also made it clear
they were not asking for
probation at yesterday's
sentencing. but said they
will ask for shock proba~
tion at the appropriate
time,
When given his opportu
nity to give comments. (Tommon-
wealth Attorney I'lddy Mont-
gomery agreed that Watts had ac-
cepted accountability for the
crimes he has been charged with.
“That is to be commended."
Montgomery said. “but he is re-
sponsible for the deaths of two pco
ple. He deserves to be punished."

Montgomery recommended
that Watts be given two five-year
prison sentences. to be served
consecutively, for a total of 10
years. He recommended against
probation.

When Judge Ventures asked
Watts if he had anything he
wished to say to the court. Watts
responded in quiet. tearechoked
tones.

“I‘m sorry to all the people I
let down." Watts said.

Audience members sobbed
audibly as Judge Ventures deliv-
ered the full sentence recom-
mended by the prosecution and
denied Watts probation.

When asked to comment.
Danielle Steinmetz said she was
still very upset and confused by
the whole issue.

“It‘s a senseless tragedy."
Steinmetz said. “It‘s too difficult
to comprehend. I'm just trying to
forgive Jason Watts."

2 arrested
in Haggin
drug bust

Shocked: Residents amazed
by bust of students caught

with 2 pounds of marijuana
By John P. Boy?

siirr WRITER

 

More than two pounds of marijuana
was confiscated in Haggin Hall last Friday
night by UK police.

Two residents were charged with traf-
ficking within 1.000 yards of a school. ac-
cording to police reports.

Fayette (‘ounty District Court records
named the two residents as Dave Richard—
son. 18. a finance freshman. and Brad Fish-
er. also 18. an undeclared freshman.

Richardson said he and Fisher were
watching television when police knocked
on the door of his room.

According to police records. a source
from the area provided reason for the police
to believe that Fisher was selling marijua
na. When police spoke with him. Richard-
son said he willingly gave the police his
stash of marijuana. Richardson and Fisher
were then taketi into custody.

“I‘m in a lot of trouble." Richardson
said. "Yeah. a lot oftrouble,"

Following their arrest. police tried to
obtain permission to enter Fisher's room.
Fisher refused and police then obtained a
search warrant. Richardson said. After
searching Fisher's room. police found two
more pounds of marijuana.

Ilrug paraphernalia and tan cash were
also confiscated. according to police
records.

”We are looking at one-five years."
Richardson said.

Students were shocked to discover that
the arrests and confiscation occurred in
their hall. l‘ndeclarcd freshman Jeff Pritch-
ett. a Haggin resident. was surprised that
this incident took place.

“I would have never have thought that
such a large amount of marijuana would be
in the residence halls." Pritchett said.

Although students are shocked that
this incident occurred. there are others who
realize the consequences that come when
dealing with drugs.

“People dealing with drugs should un-
derstand that there are consequences that
come with the lifestyle.” said Phillip
Nemes. a geology freshman and Haggin
resident.

The University is strict when it comes
to trafficking drugs on campus,

“()ne of the quickest ways to get kicked
out of this institution is by trafficking
drugs.“ said Associate Dean of Students
Victor Hazard.

”I feel everyone learned from my mis-
take" Richardson said. “I hope everyone I
know will clean up their act and grow up."

Gunmen dead also:
Shooting spress claims
lives, leaves community
in shock, disbelief

ASSOCiAlED PRESS

lilTTLETON, Colo. Two
young men in fatigues and black
trench coats attacked students with
guns and explosives in a suicide mis-
sion at a suburban Denver high
school yesterday, and the sheriff said
25 people may have been killed. The
gunmen were found dead in the li-
brary.

Several students said the killers

believed to be former students at
Columbine High School were guit-
ning for minorities and athletes.

The gunmen were found dead
with devices on them that authori—
ties said could be bombs.

“It appears to be a suicide mis-
sion." Sherithohn Stone said.

At least 20 people were Wounded
at the 11:30 am. attack. Shots rico-
cheted off lockers as the gunmen
opened fire with what students said
were automatic weapons. One girl
was shot nine times in the chest.

“At first we thought it was fire-
works. then we saw them shooting."
said Jake Apoeaca. 16. “He saw us and
then he started shooting at us. Then a
guy in a white 'l‘-shin threw two hand
grenades on the roof. We hit the
ground and then we started running."

Many students dived to the
floors and sprinted for the exits.
Dozens of students hid in classrooms
before escaping with the help of po-
lice in an armored car. Others were
trapped for hours while SWAT teams
searched for the gunmen.

At one point. a bloodied young
man dangled from a second-floor win-
dow. his right arm limp. and was
helped down by two SWAT team
members. His condition was not im-
mediately known.

The sheriff said 25 people may
have been killed. students and teach-
ers alike. But by early evening. offi-
cers had yet to remove any bodies be-
cause of the danger of explosives and
the need to preserve evidence. FBI
agents and police SWAT teams slowly
made their way through the building.

A third young man was led away
from the school in handcuffs more

Tuition to be set
by UK trustees

 

 

By Karla Dooley
ASSISIANT NEWS DIRECIOR

Tuition: it‘s the one thing
that binds all students togeth-
er, and beginning in the fall of
2000. it will be set by a group
closer to home the UK
Board of Trustees.

The change came about
last week when the Kentucky
Council on Postsecondary Ed
ucation, which previously de‘
termined tuition. voted to turn
the responsibility over to each
of the state’s eight public insti'
tutions of higher education.

“We thought it would give
them more flexibility." said
Debbie McGuffey. spokesper-
son for the CPE.

She said the change.
which had been on the CI’E‘s
agenda as a discussion item
for three months. is part of an
overall effort on the part of
the council to make the orga-
nization "less bureaucratic."

The only stipulation set
by the council was that each
institution will have to use tu-
ition for one-third of its oper-
ating budget, excluding the
costs of “mandated pro-
grams." such as the UK Exten-
sion Service. which do not di-
rectly benefit students

Edward A. Carter, UK vice
president of management and
budget. said that Student Gov-
ernment Association President
Nate Brown had a hand in
making sure that such pro
grams were excluded from the
total from which student-based
funding was to be determined.

“It suddenly dawned on

(CPE President Gordon
Davies) that we'll have to
make some adjustments“

when Brown questioned him.
Carter said.

Carter said the board will
likely look at the trends at oth-
er institutions similar to UK.
He said UK President Charles
Wethington has expressed in-
terest in taking some action to
insure that students do not see
huge jumps in tuition in some

years and none in others. in
essence. smoothing rates out
over a number of years.

The board must present
its tuition recommendations
for fall 2000 to the CPR for con-
firmation in September.

Carter said although no
formula had been agreed upon
for determining UK‘s tuition.
he expected it to be a model
much like that used by the
council.

Administrators at other
universities agreed with
Carter that the change is a
good one.

“We at Western are very
pleased and excited to have
the opportunity to determine
our own destiny.“ said Gary
Ransdell. president of West-
ern Kentucky University. "We
are encouraged by the au-
tonomy to strategically struc-
ture our tuition to meet our
funding objectives.“

Brown said that he had
spoken with President
Wethington, as well as the stu-
dent body presidents at the
seven other state institutions,
about the change.

“With each institution set-
ting the tuition rates. there‘s
more accountability to the stu-
dents." he said. adding that he B}
hoped the change wouldn‘t . > q.‘
mean students end up paying
for programs they don‘t use.

But some said they feared "1

ition with the. BOT calling the 10
shots. ’ .

“I hope that they do keep b1

really have doubts that they ‘ d<

STAFF WRITER

I have a confession to
make.

No soy un gran fanatic‘o de
la musica latina.

Translation: I am not the
biggest Latin music fan.

Now that's not to say that I
don‘t enjoy it. I really do. In the
last year or so. I've purchased
CDs by Bailando Desnudo. Tom
Ze. and Flaco Jiminez. among
others.

But on my way to the
gtlubanismol show at the Stir-
dent Center Ballroom Sunday
night. I was telling my friend
that I find myself listening to
those artists as background
music.

ljust have a hard time slap—
ping on the headphones and Ms-
tening to Latin music. I usually
pop one of those albums in
when I'm cooking or cleaning
or just sitting out on my porch.
So that’s what I mean when I
say I‘m not the biggest fan in
the world.

As a result. I can hardly tell

you anything about the show
Sunday night.

But I can't give you a whole
lot of details about the music
Friday night.

I know that they played a
few songs off of their most re-
cent release. 1998's Reencarna-
cion. but when background mu-
sic comes to the foreground,
you realize that you really don't
know many of the song titles.
espeOciaIIy when they are in
another language.

iCubanismoH specializes in
piecing together a wide array of
instruments. blending them to-
gether to create a beautiful,
Latin-flavored wall of sound.
Their sound is tight and cohe-
sive. and altogether crowd-
pleasing. all signs of an incredi
bly talented and professional
band that has worked hard at
what they do.

gCubanismo! ‘s impressive
mosaic of sound doesn't mean
that individual talents were
overlooked. Most members of
this 15-person ensemble were
given a chance to strut their
stuff.

manual I WEDNESDAY. APRIL 21. 1999 I 3

In front of a constantly-
swaying. rock-solid horn sec-
tion and a vast collection of
drummers, Alemar'ry passed out
the solos liberally. One particu-
lar standout was pianist Igna-
cio Herrera. whose funky. chop-
py piano runs were among the
most enjoyably sounds of the
night.

Also high on the list were
the vocals. Many times. songs
evolved into long. drawn-out
jams with singers Rolo Mar-
tinez and Fernando Ferrer (I
think) dancing. smiling and
belting out a favorite phrase
over and over.

Perhaps without these
frontmen. the songs would've
gotten a little tiresome, but
their engaging personalities.
and even more engaging voices.
always kept things interesting.

The most interesting thing
on stage was, as expected.
Alemar'iy.

The dynamic bandleader.
besides doling out a heaping
helping of energetic between-
song banter. wowed the crowd
with his powerful trumpet play-

ing. It’s no wonder Alemany
left Cuba in 1994 as one of its
hottest trumpet stars. his trum~
pet sound is unlike any I've
ever heard.

Powerful. yet emotive.
Grand and triumphant.

The most amazing thing
about a ;Cubanismo! concert is
the crowd.

Especially in Central Ken-
tucky. where. admittedly. I was-
n‘t sure how many people were
going to attend.

I found myself using the
band as a soundtrack for my
crowd-watching.

As a member of the seated
half of the audience. I found
myself constantly sitting up
tall. craning my neck just try-
ing to watch people dance.

The Ballroom was basically
packed. one half of the floor set
up with chairs. the other roped
off for the dancing machines.
And that side of the floor was
unlike anything I‘ve ever seen.

I know one thing for sure.
gCubanismo! was the perfect
band. at least for those people.
on this night.

Evansville sweeps Cats

After being shutout in the first game of a
doubleheader, UK scores 5 runs in nightcap

By Jonathan Dotson
STAFF WRITER

Not great, yet somehow bet-
ter.

The Wildcats lost both
games of last night's double-
header to the Evansville Pur-
ple Aces, yet the team’s play
was of a considerably better
vintage than it was over the
weekend.

UK was shut out in the
evening’s opener, 3-0. The
Cats played clean defense
and Jennifer Howland
pitched well, but the offense
failed to deliver when scor-
ing opportunities presented
themselves.

They could not take ad-
vantage of three Evansville
errors, amassing only four
hits and stranding runners on
base in the second, fourth,
sixth and seventh innings. in-
cluding the tying runs in
their final at—bat.

Game two featured a verita-
ble offensive explosion from the
Cats.

After Evansville struck for
three runs in their half of the
first, UK answered with four in
the home half.

Freshman Shanna Martini
drove home two with a single,
and the Cats added two more to
take what would be a short-

land drove home catcher
Sandi Dengler with a solid
single.

That was the end of the UK
offense for the night.

Evansville scored three
more times in the sixth inning
to seal the game at 8-5.

The Wildcats certainly
had hoped to do better against
the Aces, yet Coach Beth
Kirchner did find a silver lin-
ing of sorts in UK’s renewed
intensity.

“We actually looked like
we wanted to play, which was
a huge improvement,“ she
said.

Kirchner feels that the
team will do well if it plays as
well against SEC opponent
Florida in Gainesville, Fla.

“We have a great opportu-
nity playing in Florida this

Martini also found reason
for optimism in the ballclub‘s
enthusiasm.

“We looked alot better
tonight," Martini said.

"We played well enough to
win, but it just didn’t turn out
that way."

Pitcher Keary Camunas,
who threw six innings in the
second game, said that the
team will have a breakout per-
formance in the four-game set
against the Gators.

“If we play as well as we
did today. at least, we'll sweep
Florida this weekend. We
should do well against them,"
said Camunas, a junior.

“We haven’t been on the
road in a while, which is un-
usual for us. But Florida is a
very beatable team. We should
sweep them."
