In wake of FSU tragedy
Sororities tighten security

By MARY ANN BUCHART
Kernel Staff Writer

Last month, using an unlocked
door, a man entered the Chi Omega
sorority horse on the Florida State
University (FSU) campus in
Tallahassee. He killed two sorority
members and brutally best two
others. Police later found that the
intruder could have entered the
horse through either of two unlocked
doors, which did not surprise FSU
officials.

Students are ve'y trusting, ex-
plained Claudia Grace, assistant
director of activities at FSU. “Their
lifestyle gets sloppy. They don’t
drink it is going to happen to them,"
she said.

FSU police said that the campus
had been relatively crime-free
recently, perhaps providing
students with a false sense of
security.

As a result of the incident at FSU,
security measures are currently
being reexamined at sorority horses
on campises in Kentucky.

UK’s director of public safety,
Tom Padgett, said his office has
received only one security com-
plaint from sororities this semester,
the result of a prank phone call.
Howeva, Padgett does think that
“more obviously can be done” in the
way of security within the sororities.

But several sororities have
already tightened security, for
various reasons. Some have
received only prank calls, his others
have had break-ire and intruders.

The Alpha Delta Pi horse, on Rose
Street, reported forn' attempted

break-ins last semester. Two were
succesful.

On three different occasions,
intruderstriedtnmelttheironbars
on a rear window. Only once were
the bars separated enough to gain
entry. Members assumed the in-
trader climbed through the window
into the furnace room, but the room
was locked from the inside of the
horse.

In a separate incident, members
said they heard pounding on
downstairs windows late at night.
They called campus police, who
found a living room window
and all downstairs lights off, but
nohing missing. The housemother
said several lights are always left
on

Oneday last year,aman entereda

using a credit card to trip the lock.
He was discovered by a member
coming upstairs from the laundry
room. As she screamed and ran past
him, heran out the front door. House
President Nancy Devoto said
members were worried about what
could have happened had he not
been discova'ed.

After the incident, doors were
locked and checked more often, but
a later break-in led to the in-
stallation of solid-core doors, which
have no windows and can be opered
only from the inside. Windows in a
basement door had previomly been
broken and the door opened from the
inside. Police investigatedand found
nothing missing, but suggested a
security check.

Devoto said the check resulted in
the new tbors, better lighting,

 

inside

windows that are locked with steel
pm and an alarm system wired to
doors and windows. She added that
doors are locked 24 hours a day and
that some women even look their
bedroom doors at night.

several who-e roof prowlers were
reported Members of Kappa Delta
sorority, on Columbia Terrace, said

the house on three separate oc-
casions last semester.

KD member Julie Cooke said the
man, dressed entirely in black,
including ski mask, would climb an
antenna to the roof and “fist walk
around" There is a door leading
fromthehousetotheroof, but it is
always locked, she said

Other members said they heard
h'rn walking on the roof each time
and called campus police, bit the
man escaped each time. Since the
incidents, “we’ve really cracked
down,” Cooke said.

Janie Gorham, horse manager at
the Kappa Alpha Theta horse, said
an intoxicated man was caught
wandering around upstairs after the
Tennessee football game last fall.
“He came in the front door and
cogd‘ve dine anything," Gorham
sai .

Gorham recently took over as KAT
house manager and said she plans
many new security measures. This
semester, she said, only threatening
phone calls have been reported by
KAT members.

Most sorority houses on campus
have received the calls and they’re
nearly always the same. The caller,
a male, always warns the women

AN ABUNDANCE 0F LIFEhas been discovered inside
rocks from a barren region of Antarctica—a surprismg find
that could change the way scientists search for life on Mars.

Drs. E. lnrre Friedmann and Roseli Ocampo-Friedmann, a
husband-wife team of biologists from Florida State
University at Tallahassee, found life in light-colored rocks
from Antarctica’s Dry Valleys region, a frigid, arid area
mostly devoid of ice and snow.

Discovery of microbes, algae and fungi underneath the
surface of certain rocks in Antarctica, one of earth’s harshest
environments, significantly extends the known limits of life
on this planet and offers new hope that some form of life may
exist on desolate neighboring worlds, scientists say.

The National Science Foundation and the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration, cosponsors of the
Antarctic Research, announced the findings yesterday.

FIVE MEMBERS OF THE ORGANIZATION OF
PETROLEUM EXPORTING COUNTRIES (OPEC) meet in
Geneva, Switzerland today to try to solve their longstanding
and sometimes bitter quarrels over price scales for different
qualities of crude oil.

The five nations represented are Saudi Arabia, the world's
leading oil exporter, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait and Venezuela.
Venezuela’s representatives will mediate the conference.

The sums of money involved are small, but dampening the
acrimony that has developed on occasion among OPEC
countries is important to the group as it seeks a role as
political leader of the Third World.

A source in the OPEC secretariat expressed doubt that
anotha pending issue—that of changing the way oil prices
are quoted away from the dollar—would come up at the
meeting.

BLACK GUERILLA LEADERS said yesterday they want
to share power with Britain during Rhodesia’s transition to
black majority rule and rejected a proposal for a British
commissioner to head an interim govemment. They claimed
he would have dictatorial powers.

Meanwhile, in Salisbury, moderate black leaders agreed to
resume informal talks with the white government today on
the framework for a one-man, one-vote constitution.

Robert Mugabe and Joshua Nkomo, co-leadu's of the
Patriotic Front, said at the Malta meeting that they opposed
the Britlsh~American plan for Field Marshal lord Carver to
head an interim government from the day Prime Minister
Ian Smith leaves office until Rhodesia is legally recognized
as being an independent state by Britain. Rhodesia
unilaterally declared its independence from Britain in 1906.

British spokesman Hamilton Whyte said “very con-
siderable differences” remained between the two sides.
These difference, according to Whyte and US. delegation
spokesman Stoney Cook, focus on the military and political
implication of a cease-fire in the war between Smith's white-
led forces and the black guerillas.

EGYPTIAN PRESIDENT ANWAR SADAT warned
yesterday that despite the resumption of Egyptian-Israeli
military talks, “everythirg will collapse" unless the two
natiorn agree on self-determination for the Palestinians
living in the occupied lands

The Egyptian leader predeted that future negotiations
would be a “huvy and difficult job.” He urged the Carter
administration to take “a clear position" on the Mideast.

Sadat made his remarks to reporters a few hours before
the resumption of joint military talks focusing on an Israeli
pullback from the Sinai Penhsula. They are the first direct
negrtiatlons between Egypt and Israel since Sadat broke off
political talks in Jennalern Jan. to.

members more cautious. The man
entered the house through a
bathroom window and roamed the
halls before being discova'ed. The
woman screamed and he exited
through the window but was caught
in the front yard by several men who
were visiting friends at the horse.

Wetterer said the intruder ex-
plained he was “just curious.” He
was arrested by campus police but
later wrote a letter of apology to the
sorority and was released.

“The fact that somebody corld get

Wetterer said. The house now has
bars on the windows, new locks and
better security, she said.

The Delta Delta Delta sorority has
also been working on security, at the
recommendation of its district

horse had a lot of prank calls and
peeping Toms last semester, but
nrthing unusual has happened since

Honors program reviewed

By MARION BROGLIE
Kernel Reporter

The Honors Program is being
internally reviewedforthe first time
since it attained “educational unit”
status in me. Dr. Robert Evans,
Honors Program director, said the
process is not unusual, since every
educational unit at UK must
unrbrgo review eve'y four years.

Although it has been recognized
officially for only five years, the
Honors has existed since
1959. In effect, UK merely gave legal
statustotheprogram, which, eircept
for growth, has remained basically
undranged, Evans said.

The review committee is headed
by Dr. Donald Sands, associate dean
of Arts l: Sciences. Other faculty
committee members include John
Greenway (Honors Program), Mary
Flowers (French dept.), John
Robertson (College of Agriculture),
Join Scarborouh (history dqrt.)
and an Honors Program student,
Debbie Young (Arts & Sciences
senbr).

About 700 students are enrolled in

the program in an average year.
Currently, howevc, there are only

' about 625 studerts in the program

since an unmally large nunber of
students graduated from the
program in December, Evans said.

Normally, students apply for
admission to the program after
receiving information from the
Honors Program office. The
material is sent to students selected
from an Honors Program list, which
evaluates studerns on the
basis of ACT scores and high school
GPA. Since most of thee
havealreadybeenscree a large
pereartage of then are accepted,
Evan said.

The usual reqra'rernents for a
freehrrnn entering the program are
forr semesters of borers coileqria,
three credits of indepenrhnt work
and a minimum GPA upon
gradutior. Tire GPA may vary
from year to year, (log on the
grade of the ting class,
according to Evans.

One of the adv-ringer of the
Honors Proparn is the small
snrdmt-io-faculty ratio, said Dr.

Jonel Sallee, an Honors colloquium
professor.

Sallee said ire thinks the honors
colloquia give students a broader
base of knowledge at a time when
universities are emphasizing
specialization.

Both Sallee and Dr. Joe Hayse, an
Honors Program faculty member,
say office space is overcrowded.
Currently, faculty members share
offices.

Sallee and Hayse also think
Honors Program salaries are not
comparable to other UK faculty
members.

Most students in the program

seem to think it worthwhile. In an
Honors Program survey taken last
spring, 45 of 50 respondents an-
swered favorably when asked if the
Honors Program was a valuable
part of their Univa'sity experience.
0f the remaining five, three gave
mixed responses and two answered
unfavorably.

The review committee is in the
process of collecting information on
the program to seek out its strengths
and weaknesses and suggest
possible reforms if they are needed
Those with suggstions or comments
are urged to contact a committee
member.

Avoid academic brutality

It hasn’t happened yet, but University officials
may soon be hearing loud cries for “refund.”

That protest could come from students
demanding reimbursement for the five days of
class that were canceled this semester. Ap-
parently. say officials, those days will not be
made up. ~

Extending classes, of course, would create lots
of problems. Elaborate schedules would be
wiped out, more salaries would probably have to
be paid, and summer classes would be disrupted.

Although the University has no minimum
number of days to hold classes, some
professional schools (like the Law School) are
required by accreditors to meet for a certain
amount of time.

What this all means for most undergraduates
is five extra holidays. For students who demand
their money’s worth in class hours though, there
may be complaints, as well as demands for
refunds. Refunds for the five missed days, if they
were given, would amount to around $20 for
Kentucky residents, $50 for non-resident
students.

Most students, though, measure the value of
their education in grades received, or at least in
the number of credit hours gained. If a few class
days are lost, so much the better.

If the idea of partial refunds for canceled
classes seems frivolous, it does point out a real

problem: A sizable portion of the 15-week
semester has been lost, and what will be done
about it?

In many courses, the cancellation just means
that less material will be covered. Cramming for
finals and writing papers at the last minute after

' months of procrastination can go on as usual.

For classes with more detailed syllabi and a
demanding curriculum of essential studies,
there may be problems.

Some professors have already begun
scheduling their own “make-up” sessions, to
cover lost time. Others are assigning greater
loads of reading and homework, squeezing in the
work from those lost days as soon as possible.

It’s a have gsture for professors to defy
Mother Nature in the classroom, and to try and
make up tthe cancellations; but they should be
careful in not saddling students with too much
work too soon, or some students will go under
before the month’s out.

Any guidelines on making up class work should
stress that catching up should be done gradually.
To avoid time conflicts, extra class sessions
should be arranged on an optional basis and
students should not be penalized if they can’t

attend. Otherwise, the protests against,

academic brutality are likely be much louder
than any cries for refunds.

’Rookdreams’ part II
selling dreams to kids

Last week I wrote a bit about the
way that rock and roll lyrics have
come into almost universal use in
place of original thought among
young adults in American society
today.

 

 

 

 

 

That essay was meant to serve as
an introduction to a concept which
has all but become an obsession with
me since it first came up in a
poolside conversation with Ted
Steele and Ken Main back in 1975.

The basic point of what has since
become. a multifaceted theory is
that the young among mainstream
(and that is really no longer a valid
qualifier) America have developed
to the point of obsession their in-
terest in rock and roll music.

This obsession, which has
developed at several levels, I have
labled the ”Rockdreams Syn-

drome." The syndrome is par-
ticularly common among high
school students and on many college
camptses, and its symptoms are not
difficult to spot.

The best example of the way in
which the Rockdreams Syndrome
has developed is the enormous
amount of money that kids today
spend on records. The kind of money
that is being poured into that in—
dustry today used to go for books
and magazines; but books seem no
longer to be considered practical
among teenagers and young adults,
and whereas once a “culturally-
inclined” young man was judged by
the size of his book collection, he now
is measured by his record collection
or the price tags on his components.

It would be hard to say why—
indeed, they teach classes which
seek to do so—but American kids
have simply abandoned reading.
The most obvious answer is that
television-watching and stereo-
listening have replaced reading,
simply because it is so much easier
to do.

Children who are exposed at an

early age to a constant inundation of
idiot-box programming discover
that they don’t need to read for their
entertainment, so they don’t. When
they get older, then, instead of
buying and reading books, they buy
albums and expensive stereos to
play them on and entertain thorn-
selves in that fashion.

It is true that peole have been
listening to phonographs ever since
Edison came up with the first one,
but not on such a scale. There are
now more stereo shops in Lexington
that bookstores. What makes that
especially hard to swallow is that
you can usually buy four or five
genuinely expensive books for the
price of a cheap stereo component.
Money, it seems, is no object when it
comes to comfort and convenience.

And the money is a big factor in
the rock and roll hobby: it tallies art
least $400 to put together a good
stereo; albums average about $5 a
throw; concerts (which is what it’s
all about, anyway) run anywhere
from $5 to $15, depending upon the
act.

To get kids to spend the kind it

Fears nukes

Recently, a Russian nuclear-
powered orbiting satellite re-entered
the earth’s atmosphere and crashed
in the northern Canadian tundra. At
first, a large radiation cloud was
reportedly carrying dangerous
particles up into the atmosphere,
possibly to later come down as
fallout. Now, definite high radiation
has been measured, only a few miles
from where part of the satellite was
discovered.

Certainly, radiation posisoning is
a highly publicised issue these days.
Everybody says it’s dangd-ous, so
we must spend millions of dollars to
be “certain” our present nuclear
reactors are safe. Now that the first
of several Russian nuclear satellites
has fallen to Earth, it’s time to take
some additional steps.

1. Stock plenty of canned hoods.

2. Buy a Geiger nter. “

3. Prepare to die. 5

That's right, folks. The next
satellite could fall on your head.

However, there is one way to reduce
the odds of this happening. Remove
the nuclear satellites from orbit.
Who can say the next one won’t fall
on L.A., Tokyo, or Moscow, for that
matter. Let’s hope Jimmy will stand
up for our safety, and start some
action to get those satellites down.

SCAR forming

In response to the threat on the
affirmative action program caused
by the California Supreme Court
Bakke Decision a national
demonstration has been called by
the National Committee to Overturn
the Bakke Decision to take place in
front of the US. Supreme Court
Building in Washington, April 15.
Several other groups nationally
have endorsed the call including the
National Student Coalition Against
Racism, Black American Law
Students Association, and New
Jersey N.O.W. State Board of
Directors.

Locally several people are trying
to start a Student Coalition Against '
Racism (SCAR) chapter to get in-
volved with other groups in building
support for affirmative action and
the demonstration. Other possible
areas of work could be working
against the death penalty and
bringing AnneShepar-d Turner of the
Wilmington ten, who is being toured
by National SCAR, to campus.

SCAR has been active at UK in the
past supporting desegregation in
Louisville and Boston and in op~
position to the racist violence there
and against frame-ups such as Joan
Little and Gary Tyler. individuals
and members of organizations are
invited to attend and participate in
discussing how to build support for
the national demonstration and local
activities for affirmative action. A
defeat on this issue would mean a
return to the time before the gains of
the Civil Rights movement inSequal
educational and job opportunities
won in the sixties.

money they do on rock and roll
music, the makers and packagers of
rock and roll music have spin in-
credible fantasy webs in which they
capture and entangle their young
targets.

The most extreme example of
such a web of fantasy is Kiss; their
bizarre mixture of gore, horror and
130-decibel rock-and-roll has won the
hearts, minds and dollars of millions
of American children.

Joni Mitchell’s new two-
record set follows the road
she traveled on last year’s
Rejira except the new album
expands upon the esoteric
jazzstylessheuses,aswellas
incorperating several new
ideas.

The entire affair, like
Rejira, takes considerable
getting used-to. Mitchell
varies from the strong
rhumba undertones of
“Dreamland," to the bass
thunderings of “Cotton
Avenue” and “Backstreets.”

The highlight of the album
is the side-long “Paprika
Plains," which features a
fascinating orchestral
arrangement and a killer
soprano sax solo by Wayne
Shrrter at the song’s con-
clusion.

Percussionists Manolo

Running On Empty is a

Recorded live on stage,
behind stage, in hotel rooms,
and even on a tour bus, the
album offers an interesting
insight to one of today’s most

The songs vary from the
rocking title track, which
represents the confusion of
The Pretender without the

in contrast, the album
offers yet another version of
the classic blues piece,
“Cocaine” and a standup
version of Mara-ice Williams'
classic rocker, “Stay."
Rosemary Butler adds some
exciting backing vocals and
Lindley delivers an
astounding Frankie Valli
impersonation.

Running On Empty not only
offers a new concept in
making live albums, but
represents the singer and his
band in a comfortable and
enjoyable mood.

RICK WAKEMAN‘S
CRIMINAL RECORD
AdrM SP-4660

Criminal Record is
essientially a twin album with
White Rock, in that they both
represent the return of
keyboardist Rick Wakeman
to the ranks of the
professionals. After several
grossly excessive ventures,

Wakeman’s newest is an
almost entirely instrumental
showcase, sparked by the
same freshness that made
Yes’ recent Going for the One
so powerful.

albums.

The earlier material like “I
Need You“ and "Company"
fare the best, although two
very good newer selections,
“Amber Cascades" and
“Sergeant Darkness" come
acrom well because of their
simple, melodic
arrangements.

Live is simply a holding
pattern for the group. an
updated ”greatest hits"
