x-assistant sues Mumme, UK and UKAA

seomsoaitvtatoa

A former UK offensive coordi-
nator filed a civil suit in Fayette
County Circuit court Tuesday
morning against the University of
Kentucky. the University of Ken-
tucky Athletic Association and for-
mer UK football coach Hal
Mumme.

Tony Franklin. who was termi-
nated Nov. 19. 2000 by Mumme.
filed a suit alleging defamation by
Mumme.

The claim states Mumme de-
famed Franklin verbally by calling
him “an enemy of the university."
and stating Franklin attempted to
frame former recruiting coordina-
tor Claude Bassett as the person be-
hind NCAA violations.

The suit against UK and the
UKAA claims “wrongful termina-
tion and a violation of the whistle-

blower statute,"

Attorney Glenn (‘ohen. a part-
ner in Louisville's Seiller 8; Hand-
maker law firm. who represents
Franklin. said Franklin had agreed
with Mumme to leave the universi-
ty voluntarily at the end of his con-
tract but was instead terminated
by Mumme.

(‘ohen said after Guy Morriss
was hired as UK‘s head football
coach. Morriss “offered and ex-
pressed a willingness to continue
Tony Franklin as an assistant
coach and offensive coordinator."
(‘ohen said former 17K President
(‘harles Wethington. acting on be-
half of the university. vetoed Mor»
riss' offer because of Franklin's in
volyement in the Nt‘AA violations
controversy. The suit states the vo
toing of Franklin's re-hiring vio-
lates the whistleblower statute.

The defendants in the suit will
have 20 days to formally respond to
the suit in circuit court. (‘ohen
said.

I'K Deputy General (‘ounsel

Paul Vanbooven said the universi-
ty had not received copies of the
suit yet.

Others affiliated with the uni-
versity declined to be interviewed
because it is a [7K policy to not
comment on the status of pending
lawsuits.

(‘ohen said the case Could last
anywhere from eight months to a
year. if it reaches court

"Right now. we plan on trying
the case and look forward to trying
the case." he said.

Franklin is not seeking a cet‘~
tain amount of monetary damages.

“We're going to leave that up
to the jury." he said.

Franklin said he did not file
the suit for monetary compensa
tion.

“(My feeling is) there was an
attempt to defame me. to smear my
name and my reputation. and to do
it on a continual basis." Franklin
said. “I don't think you're supposed

Coast Guard nabs more marijuana

MIAMI -- The Coast Guard seized nearly
5,000 pounds of marijuana and four smugglers af-
ter a boat chase that lasted 11 hours. The drugs
had a street value of about $4.4 million, said Zach
Mann. a US. Customs spokesman. The Coast
Guard cutter Monhegan docked Tuesday in Key
West with the drugs. the 33-foot vessel and the
four suspects. All were turned over to Customs.
The chase began Sunday. when the Monhegan
spotted the vessel 25 miles south of Guantanamo
Bay. Cuba. the Guard said. It passed into Cuban
waters. temporarily halting the pursuit because
the Guard cannot go there. The Monhegan
caught up with the vessel and boarded it in inter-
national waters after it emerged ofl‘ the eastern
tip of Cuba. heading north for the Bahamas. The
four suspects had no identification and the vessel
was not registered with any country. The seizure
brings the amount of marijuana seized by the
Coast guard this year to nearly 35.000 pounds.

Mideast peace efforts forge ahead

sidelines of an economic conference in Italy.

European Union foreign policy chief Javier
Solana was in the region trying to help arrange
cease-fire talks. He brought Israeli Foreign Min-
ister Shimon Peres and two senior Palestinian 0f-
ficials together Monday night —the first such
contacts in weeks. The preparations came during
one of the most intense spates of Palestinian
bombings in more than 11 months of fighting
with Israel. The bomb detonated by a suicide at-
tacker outside a French school in Jerusalem on
Tuesday was the sixth in the city in two days.
Twenty people were injured.

Med school applications drop again

CHICAGO . Applications to the nation’s
medical schools fell 3.7 percent in 2000 in the
fourth straight year of decline. Attractive jobs in
dot-coms and information technology. along with
the prospect of big medical school debts. may be
among the reasons for the decline. The decline
appears to be leveling off: it was 6 percent in 1999.
The applicant pool last year totaled 37,092. It in-
cluded 17.274 women. a 0.9 percent drop from
1999. the report found. The number of minorities
climbed 2 percent to 4.266. Despite the drop in ap
plicants there are still more than twice as many
applicants as there are places for students. The
report. published in Wednesday‘s Journal of the
American Medical Association. also found that
the number of patients available to participate in
clinical teaching during 2000-01 decreased in al-
most half the nation‘s 125 medical schools.

Go now. Don't wait. Now is

the future. said Diane Kohler,
associate director of UK‘s (‘a-
reer Center, The center offers
many services that may aid
students on their path to future
employment.

Kohler advised students
the sooner they start planning
for their future the better. “Be-
gin with the end in mind." she
said.

The Katherine Keinper Ca-
reer Libra ry. part ofthe (‘areer

hour rule (students at UK with
60 hours must choose a major).
this is the place to go. Kohler
said. The center offers one-on—
one advising for students to
find a field they may like to
pursue.

Undergraduates can exam-
ine activities they have en-
joyed in the past and turn them
into a career. The center focus-
es on aiding students with self;
assessment. Students who
know what major they would
like to follow but can‘t decide
on a specific career can also
benetit from the center.

Kohler said the center also
helps students with intern-
ships. co-ops and volunteer
work. all of which she said
look impressive on a resume.
And Kohler said building a re-
sume takes time. so don‘t wait.

Amy Gavin. an advertising
senior. wishes she had planned
her career a little better.

“i only have one class left,
and I‘m graduating in Decem-
ber." Gavin said. “I have yet to
walk into an advertising
agency."

Statistics show students
who have had co-ops and in
ternships receive higher-pay-
ing jobs sooner and move up in
companies faster. Kohler said.

Later in a student's college
career, the Career Center is
helpful when preparing for in-
terviews and even salary nego-
tiations. The center also offers
job search workshops. career
fairs. on-campus interviews
and credential services.

Gavin hopes she can make
the best of the time she has left
at UK. but thinks finding a jot)
would be easier if she had
planned ahead.

"When you know what you
want to do and start looking
forward to it. it makes school
seem like it has more of a pur-
pose." she said.
