UK students still complain about foreign TAs

Associated Press

The University of Kentucky this
year began testing the ability of its
foreign teaching assistants to speak
English. but that hasn‘t been enough
to stop student complaints.

The Student Government Associa-
tion is making complaint forms
available to make it easier for stu-
dents to air their gripes about teach-
ers whom they cannot understand

“It’s kind of a class action." said
Cyndi Weaver. SGA president. "In
situations where a whole class is af-
fected. SGA will pursue the com-
plaints instead of ‘Joe Student‘ pur-
suingitalone.“

Paul McCreary. a pre-pharmacy
freshman. had a foreign instructor
for math last semester.

Mills denies
news story
aboutson

Associated Press

Claud Mills denied yesterday that
he told the Lexington Herald-Leader
he didn‘t want his son to play at
Kentucky anymore or that his son
might not honor his letter‘of-intent
with the school.

“We intend to be there (Kentuckyi
for four years.“ Mills told WLEX-
TV in Lexington during a live inter-
view. “That was the plans from the
beginning and nothing has changed
that." /

The Herald yesterday quoted Mills
as saying that he was so tired of the
controversy surrounding the recruit-
ment of his son. Chris. that “I don't
even want Chris to go to Kentucky. I
really don‘t. I really don't know if
he‘s coming to Kentucky or not. I
really don‘t know. It's up to the
NCAA.“

Mills told WLEX that “the guy
that wrote that article . . . I think he
just misquoted me. We have nothing
against coming to Kentucky. Ken~
tucky did nothing wrong. did nothing
wrong with us."

Mike Johnson. the sports editor at
the Herald, said the newspaper
stands by its story. written by staff
writer Gene McLean.

“The story we published this
morning is correct. The interview
with Claud Mills is on tape. He
clearly says more than once that
Chris might not come to UK." John-
son said.

The NCAA and the university are
investigating allegations that $1.000
in cash was found when an Emery
overnight mail envelope addressed
to Claud Mills popped open at a Los
Angeles sorting center. The sender
was listed as Kentucky assistant
coach Dwane Casey.

Mills also told WLEX that he ob-
jected to an investigation he said
McLean had been conducting into
his personal life. He said McLean
had been asking business associates

“I just basically taught myself,"
McCreary said. “When you're carry-
ing 18 (credit) hours, you don‘t have
time to try to understand what a
teacher is saying. If I‘m taking a
math course. I expect to have some-
one that knows a lot about the sub-
ject and who can relay that to me
clearly. That‘s what I‘m paying
for."

The teaching assistant problem
stems from a number of things. UK
administrators said. Graduate stu-
dents in some fields are required to
teach. and there is a shortage of En»
glish-speaking teaching assistants in
certain subjects. such as math. engi-
neering and the sciences.

”The problem is not too many for-
eign-born students; it‘s too few
American—born." said Don Leigh.

 

“The problem is not too many foreign-born
students; it’s too few American-born.”

Don Leigh,

assistant dean of the engineering school

 

assistant dean of the engineering
school.

“Part of the reason is that our re-
search assistant positions are not
comparable to what an American
undergrad can make in industry.
Another reason is our culture does
not produce enough students who
are interested in academics and
scholarship.“

About 70 of the 600 graduate teach-

ing assistants at UK are foreign.
About 50 were screened last fall and

20 this spring in the first tests of En-
glish abilities. A total of 10 failed.

"It‘s OK to go through that." said
Shaung-Kuang Kung. 27. who came
from Taiwan to [K last fall and
passed his fluency test “I didn‘t
mind. They just tested me to see
how I would do in certain classroom
situations.“

facilities

vary in universities

By HEIDI PROBST
Staff Writer

Handicapped students that enroll
in universities hope the institutions
have the services to help them get
an education.

From polling 11 universities in
Kentucky, Tennessee. Indiana and
North Carolina the Kentucky Kernel
found that most universities offer
the basics in handicap services such
as programming for hearing and vi-
sually impaired students.

And most universities surveyed
are moving toward making campus
buildings and facilities for the hand-
icapped more accessible.

None of the universities, however.
offer an attendant care program like
the one at UK. where people are
hired to help in the care of hand-
icapped students living in dormito-
nee.

In addition. only of two of the uni-
vanities surveyed — UK and

Indiana University — have money in
their budgets earmarked for ban'ier
removal and increased accessibility.

All universities must. by law. ac-
commodate to make every program
accessible to a disabled student.
Section 504 of the 1973 Rehabilitation
Act states “its purpose is not to give
an unfair advantage to disabled stu-
dents. but rather to give them an
equal opportunity for success as is
given to their able-bodied peers.“

There are similar guidelines that
specify what a higher education in-
stitution must provide for a hand-
icapped student outlined in Section
504 of the Rehabilitation Act.

But a disabled student may want
to check each program and its serv-
ices to match their disability before
enrolling in the university as they do
differ.

Jake Karma. director of UK‘s
Handicapped Student Services. said
the University has an attendant care
program which pays for an atten-

dents perform their daily routines

”To my knowledge we are the
only school in Kentucky that has an
attendant care program," he said.

To date. Karnee is correct. al-
though Murray State University
plans to establish an attendant care
program.

"We don't have an attendant care
program or facility but we‘re in the
process of doing that." said Velvet

Judicial Board listens

to charges against Rose

By III‘IIIH PROBS’I'
Staff Writer

A decision concerning the validity
of Student Government Association
Presidentelect James Rose‘s catn-
paign was delayed until tonight by
the Judicial Board.

The Board cited a need to re-
search the charges further as reason
for the delay The major charge
brought against Rose by Kathy Ash—
craft. a member of SGA's executive
branch. is campaign ovcrcxpcndi»
lures.

Judicial Board member Ken Walk-
er said the (leciSion will be made
after he and the other Judicial
Board members examine federal
court precedents in expenditure
amount cases.

On March 31. 1088 SGA President
Elect James ltosc was challenged
on five charges of campaign viola»
tions at the Elections Board hearing
by Ashcratt.

Ashcraft was on the campaign
staff of SGA Senator at Large David
Botkins [tose defeated Botkins and
SGA Senior Vice President Susan
Bridges for the presidency.

Ashcraft dropped two of her
charges but still contends that Bose
violated expenditure limits. removal
of opponents‘ posters and campaign
distance requirements.

Ashcraft said foremost among her
accusations is evidence to prove
Rose paid more than $800 for his
campaign expeditures. SGA rules
stipulate that a candidate can‘t
spend more than $300 on a cam-
paign.

Last week Ashcraft said she had
an affidavit from a printer showing
Rose spent over the expenditure
limit. However. at last night's Judi-
cial Board meeting Ashcrat't failed
to produce the affidavit.

Still. Ashcraft maintained that
said she contacted a printer three
times to get estimates on the cost of
the posters Rose used The cost
would have been about 3400. she
said The receipt shows that Rose
spent $228.

Ashcrafl said she believes that the

JAMES ROSE
printer, Les Kitchen. signed a
invalid receipt for Rose

“Kitchen has historically underes-
timated costs for the last scici SGA
elections.” she said

Attempts to reach Kitchen for
comment last night wcrc unsuccess-
lul

Rose‘s rebutted this accusation
with estimates from printers of
other candidates who recieved twice
as many or more posters of almost
the same quality for less or half the
amount he paid

Ashcraft was given an April 7
deadline for presenting evidence of
ltose's violations

But because she did not meet that
deadline. the Elections Board did
iiol allow Ashcraft to bring her evi-
dcnce into the proceedings at last
'l‘uesday's Elections Board hearing

Consequently. the Elections
Board. deciding it lacked enough ev-
idence to act on the matter. passed
the case on to the Judtcml Board

Bose said he is not intimidated by
Ashcrafl's charges or her presen-
laioii last night

“We were relieved because it's ob»

vious she didn‘t have anything,"
Bose said.

with basic curb cuts and ramp in-
stallations.

“If you consider that we‘re a cam-
pus that's been in existence for over
a hundred years, all in all we’re rea-
sonably accessible," said Jake
Karnes director of handicapped stu—
dent services

UK is accessible in that hand-
icapped students have access to all
programs, but it is difficult to mea-
sure accessibility. For example,
handicapped students have access to
programs in the Matthews Building,
but they do not have access to the
actual building.

If handicapped students want
counseling from the Career Plan-
ning and Placement Center, located
in the Matthews Building, they must
set up an appointment to meet with
a representative at an accessible lo-
cation. Not only does this require
that the representative gather all
the information related to the stu-
dent’s interests, but a handicapped
student may be less likely to utilize
the Center's services because of the
extra effort and time involved.

“Those people i at the CPPC) will
bend over backwards to get the stu-
dents the information they need,”
Karnes said. “But they (the stu-
dents) may feel like the level of
service is not the same no matter
how hard they try. Students feel like
they can‘t just drop in."

Troy Russelburg, an agriculture
communications and marketing
sophomore, doesn't feel that way.

"I wouldn't hesitiate to do that

Russelburg said. “But since the UK

students here, a building such as the
Matthews Building should be acces-
sible because the placement service
is a very important program."

Likewise, the Administration
Building is listed as inaccessible. If
a handicapped student wants to
meet with an administrator, they
must set up an appointment else-
where. Although student appoint-
ments with administrators may be
few and far between, the fact re-
mains that able-bodied students can
enter the Administration Building
and handicapped students can not.

Handicapped students can enter
the Gillis Building, but cannot go
above the ground floor. When they
get inside the building (from the
back door), there is a button they
can push to call someone from up-
stairs down to assist them.

Generally, switching class loca-
tions is not a problem. If a hand-
icapped students‘ class is in an in-
convenient building or room, he
informs the teacher and Karnes
takes care of the problem, and the
class usually can be relocated be-
fore the next meeting.

Teachers also are understanding
when handicapped students miss
class because of the weather.

“They know that wheelchairs and
ice just don't mix," Russelburg said.

Jim Wessels, director of the Phys-
ical Plant Division, said that when it
snows, sidewalks are one of his first
priorities, partly because of the dan-
ger to students in wheelchairs.

About 10 years ago, Karnes and
some wheelchair students compiled
a list for the PPD of the paths they
thought should be kept clear during
the winter.

“The Physical Plant Division is
very good about that. At the very
least. we always keep it clear from
Holmes Hall (where most hand-
icapped men live) over to Blazer
cafeteria.“ Karnes said. “If they

can‘t go to class. at least they can
eat.”

Sam Eden, a handicapped grad-
uate student, mentioned the ramps
across Upper Street near the Taylor
Education Building as being partic-
ularly hazardous. “They definitely
need to be reviewed and modified.
There‘s too steep of an incline, par-
ticularly in the fall when leaves hit
wet concrete," Eden said.

Eden also mentioned the impracti~
cal placement of the button that
triggers the light change at the
crosswalk on Upper Street. “It
should be relocated so we don‘t have
to stand in the middle of the street
to push it,” he said.

One place that continually haunts
wheelchair students is the area on
South Limestone Street near McDon-
ald‘s and Tolly Ho. Last October,
UK student Randy Lewis was struck
by a car and killed while trying to
cross Limestone in his wheelchair.

This accident prompted Lexing-
ton-Fayette Urban County Coun-
cilwoman Debra Hensley to form a
committee to investigate traffic
safety, especially for the hand-
icapped.

The committee met last December
for a general meeting to discuss its
aims and met again earlier this
month. Hensley said the committee
had to wait for the weather to warm
up before holding its second meet-
ing. She said that at that meeting,
committee members got in wheel-
chairs “so we could understand
what it’s like for the handicapped
students to get around campus.

“My people could hardly get mov-
ing at first. It took an amazing
amount of strength and stamina,"
Hensley said.

The committee will meet within
the next ten days for its third and
final meeting when the members
will make their final specific recom-
mendations as to improvements on

sidewalks, ramps, curb cuts and in-
tersections.

“Many of the recommendations I
see coming forth will, in fact, occur
rather quickly," Hensley said.

Hensley said traffic engineers, pe-
destrians, mobility-impaired stu-
dents and police have been involved
with the decisions so as to achieve
varied input.

“We wanted to put together a
group of people who would be
doers," she said. “We plan to exer-
cise our authority as it relates to the
books. We put this group together
knowing we could get this thing
done.“

One of the main things the com-
mittee plans to achieve is stricter
enforcement of traffic laws by the
police.

“We‘re constantly rattling their
cages as it results to parking ille-
gally and motorists not abiding by
the restrictions," Hensley said.

David Allgood, a handicapped
member of Hensley‘s committee ex-
plained, “Lexington drivers aren’t
the most courteous and law-abiding
drivers you‘ll find.“ He was refer-
ring especially to the no turn on red
law at the intersection of Limestone
and Euclid. Ironically, Allgood was
hit by a car during the committee‘s
surveillance of that area.

The outlook for UK’s accessibility
is promising. Karnes said that the
current budget for handicap modifi-
cations is only $l0,000, but most of
the major problems have already
been taken care of.

“Students don‘t bring a lot of
things up anymore because the cam-
pus is reasonably accessible,“
Karnes said. “You just have to de-
cide where you have a project where
$10,000 or less will make a differ-
ence.“

MSU has formed an Access Commit-
tee that will have this service avail-
able by next spring, Wilson said.

Wilson said one reason for the pro-
gram was the fear of a quadriplegic
wanting to attend MSU but being un-
able to because of inadequate facili-
ties and care.

“I feel it's something we need
here in case we need to help quadri.
plegics,“ Wilson said.

Handicapped Technical Specialist
Jim Kessler, with the University of

pay attendants to help the severely
handicapped but that UNC provides
a training program on the mainte-
nance and use of equipment to help
the handicapped.

UNC then makes a list of persons
who have been trained available to
the handicapped, Kessler said

not need an attendant to help with

earmarked for barrier removal and
plans to reconstruct buildings to
make them more accessible to the
handicapped. For instance, IU's
budget for barrier removal is $100.-
000 this year, said Sam Goodwin. di»
rector of disabled students services
and veterans affairs at IU.

Paraplegics and quadriplegics.
though. are not the only students in
need of aid. Handicapped students
also include those with hearing and
visual disablilites.

Most schools have tape recording
services for the blind and some in—
terpreting services for the deaf. In
Kentucky. the University of Louis
ville may be the best equipped to
help visually impaired students.

Director of Special Student Serv-
ices Bill Cox said that U of L has the
greatest number of blind students
because it is the closest to the Louis-
ville School of the Blind. “It‘s a nat-
uralspinoff,"Cox said.

“I chose to come to U of L be
cause a lot of schools didn't want to
help a visually impaired student and
I? of L did." said Becky Nord, a pre-
physical therapy freshman with a
visual impairment.

She said she has had no difficulty
with U of L‘s science program ex~
cept for her chemistry class. Nord
said she was the first visually im—
paired student to enroll in a chemis—
try class.

Although the science department
had never worked with a blind stu-
dent. they are trying to adapt. she
said. “They‘ve really made much
improvement."

(Secretary’ 5 Week is April 25-29)

OFaeilities differ at universities

University of Tennessee's Director
of Handicap Services Jan Scottbey
said UT is by far a better school for
the hearing impaired. U'I‘ has an as-
SIstant director of handicap services
who is an interpreter that makes
helping the hearing impaired a sig-
nificant service, Scottbey said.

“It is just more extensive and
more involved than any other pro-
gram we have for other impair-
ments," said UT Assistant Director
of Handicap Services Libby Gatlin.

Gatlin said intrepreters are hired
to service the seven or eight hearing
impaired students at UT. The inter-
preters must complete as assess-
ment test showing that they are able
to conduct the service adequately.

Most of [TS hearing impaired
students live off campus but a spe»
cial service is provided for the stu-
dents living on campus. Gatlin said
that a flashing light was installed in
residence halls to signal when the
doorbell rings and when the fire
alarmis on.

Scottbey said their budget tor
handicap services in 385.170.

L'Nt‘s Kessler said their program
also services the hearing impaired
with interpreters. Interpreters and
notetakers are provided at a stu-
dents request to help With any pro-
gram at I'M'. he said.

Diversions

Crowd pleaser

With the majority of UK’s student’s under 21, Lexington needs a nightlife that caters to that crowd

Although l wasn't there last Satur—
day night. I‘ve heard from a lot of
people that the crowd was really in-
different towards Echo and the Hun
nymen during their concert. You
have to wonder why someone would
pay $10 to see a concert and then
blab all the way through it.

The answer could be, though. that
maybe there just wasn’t anything
else to do last Saturday night, For a
town whose livelihood revolves
around ['K and its students. Lexmg-
ton seems to not want to tap into
that college market outside of cam-
pus

I turned 21 last week and now that
previously forbidden mecca of bars
and clubs is open for plunder. But I
remember all too well the long wait

nothing for students under 21 land

Earlier this week, it was an-

izes in booking bands that are big on
college radio. as well as acts from
the blues and folk world. It should
go over pretty well with the added
promotional help those bands will be
getting from WRFL.

Students under 21, though, are still
going to have to drive to Cincinnati
to see those same bands. Bogart's
has an admission policy that allows
all ages to come to the shows, de—
spite the fact that they sell beer
there. University of Louisville stu-
dents have the Red Barn to go to on
weekends where they can dance to
whatever local band is playing. 0c~
casionally, they book acts like the
Violent Femmes and The Beat
Farmers.

So why doesn't Lexington have

some place for its college students
to go where they could enjoy some
semblance of a night life? The Red
Barn is undoubtedly a money-maker
for the Student Activities Board at U
of L and something like that in Lex-
ington could probably bring in some
revenue for the SAB here.

And social activities around here
(outside of fraternity parties) could
sure use a boost. Worsham Theatre-

one saw six months ago when they
were sitting around wondering what
