Students looking for diet tins

A UK offers ideas

uhout nutrition

By Kim Vocal
Staff Writer

With Spring Break just around the corner,
many UK students are in the midst of rapid
exercise and dieting.

From “Buns of Steel” to counting calories,
looking slim and trim for the rand entrance
on the beach is on the minds ofgmany UK stu-
dents.

Healthy nutrition is just one way students
can combdt the effects of those unwanted
pounds.

L. Preston Mercer, professor and chairman
of the Department of Nutrition and Food Sci—
ences, said the best advice he can give to stu—
dents for healthy nutrition is eating a wide
variety of foods.

“College students are oing to mostly be
eating convenience foods ike pizza and ham-
burgers," Mercer said.

“Food contains two things —— nutrients and
energy. The idea is to get a balance between
nutrition and energy in a variety of foods."

Mercer said people are gaining weight in
college because their activity level is going
down, but students are still eating the same
foods with the same level of energy. High lev-
els of energy are found in those foods that are
high in calories.

Mercer recommends following the Food
Guide Pyramid for a proper diet regimen.

“The four basic food groups 'are out and the
Food Guide Pyramid is in," Mercer said.

“It's a clever communication medium and a
simple way to communicate complex informa—
tion."

The pyramid shows a range of servings for
each food group and states that everyone
should have at least the lowest number of serv~
ings in the ranges.

The bread, cereal, rice and pasta group
located at the bottom have the most servings.
Fats, oils and sweets pictured at the top are to
be consumed sparingly.

“There is no ideal diet. It doesn't exist. \K'e
are looking for eating patterns rather than
good foods and bad foods," Mercer said.

Mercer said it is ()K to splurge on a tneal,
but it is important to make up for it with the
other two meals in the day.

For students interested in healthy dieting
who eat a tnajority of their meals on campus,
UK Food Services provides light and vegetari—
an meals.

Carol Raitz, director of UK Food Services,
said she realized that in eating on or off cam-
pus, more and tnore students are interested in
eating healthy.

“We feel part of our mission is educating
students and treating them to more nutritional
and healthy food habits," Raitz said. “\\'e are
generally very customer focused. \Ve solicit
their opinions, conduct focus groups, and gene
erally try to reach students to find out how we
can complete our mission."

UK Food Services, working with the Nutri-
tion and Food Science department. has imple-
mented a lighter menu with foods that derive
30 percent or less of their calories from fat.
Vegetables are now purely steamed without
added margarine or butter.

In addition, some types of sliced ham,
turkey and roast beef range from U," to 9‘) pen
cent fat free.

“Normally students should be able to find
low fat cheese, cottage cheese. salad dressings
and sour cream," Raitz said.

Given the active life of a college student,
Raitz noted that eating l,5()()~l,80l) calories

Around the world

By Gary Wult
Staff Writer

Have you ever wondered what people from other
countries have for dessert, while you were devouring
your pint of Ben & Jerry’s? As a part of Cultural
Diversity week, a European Pastry Cafe is being held
in 245 Student Center from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. through
March 1.

The cafe, co—sponsored by the Cosmopolitan Club
and the International Hospitality Program, is in its
20th year.

It will features desserts from around Europe,
including apple Strudel, a German dish; dobosh
tortes, a Hungarian dessert which consists of ellow
cake and chocolate almond butter filling; an three
different es of quiche, a French dish.

Thoug the prices went up this year due to rising
costs, they are still reasonable running from $2 to
$3.50 for the pastries. The cafe has the same pastries
as years past.

Hege Johansson, Cosmopolitan Club adviser, said
the goal of the pastry cafe was “to provide the atmo—
sphere of a (Euro ean) cafe.

Here the stu ents can enjoy something that the
Student Center normally doesn’t have.”

Though staff and faculty members are their most

loyal customers, Johansson said he
would like to see more students.

“Usually the first day is pretty
slow, but by the end of the week we
are very busy," said Wei-Chow,
president of the Cosmopolitan
Club.

“Many ofthe students hear about
it from word of mouth, so the pace
begins to speed up by the end of the
week,”_lohansson said.

Some professors use the pastry
cafe as a learning tool to show their
students what a cafe in Europe is
like.

conversation a little easier and more natural, like in a
real European cafe.”

Gina Yost, a UK graduate, said, “I feel a little more
relaxed and it’s nice to be able to have a snack.”

IFC garners two regional awards

By Brenna Reilly
News Editor

UK’s Interfraternity Council won two top awards
at this year’s Southeastern IFC conference. For the
third year in a row, UK’s IFC won the Fraternal
Excellence. The award, presented at this year’s con-
ference in Atlanta, recognizes IFCs that excel in one
area and overall. Eighty-five colleges were represent—
ed at the conference, 12 were awarded the Fraternal
Excellence Award.

The nine members of IFC’s Executive Council,
assistant Dean of Students Jay McCoy, and two fra—
ternity presidents attended the conference.

IFC had to meet the required percentage of 12

standards for IFC’s with 10 or more chapters. Some
of the standards were: service to chapters, leadership,
legal concerns, rush and scholarship. UK IFC
received achievement in all areas.

The “All Greek Step Up Symposium” won the
New Programming award. The Programmin award
recognizes IFCs that organize programs to a dresses
a weakness or concern in the fraternity system. UK
IFC‘s program was one of three winners of the Pro-
gramming award.

Because of several disciplinary problems last
semester, IFC developed the “Step U " symposium
for Greeks to discuss the problems in t e community
and ways to solve them.

The Nov. 6 meeting was mandatory for all Greeks

and was attended by UK President Charles VVething-
ton and other administrators. At the symposium stu—
dents broke up into small groups to discuss specific
problems. Some of the topics discussed were hazing,
apathy, scholarship, alcohol and negative traditions.

After the meeting IFC compiled the results into
outlines that defined each problem and listed reasons
for the problems. The results also list possible solu—
tions the groups came up with to solve the probletns.

Bill Brassine, IFC president, said he was very
happy about winning the awards.

More than 1,500 students attended the meeting,
tnore than any all Greek event. Brassine said the
meetings need to be mandatory because otherwise the
students they are trying to reach would not show up.

“We have to make those kinds of things mandato-
ry, otherwise we would be preaching to the choir,"

Brassine said.

Campus conlerence t0 locus on immigration IIIHBI‘IIS

By Kathy Rotting
Staff Writer

If you were an immigrant to this country, what
barriers would you face? How welcome would the
United States make you feel? Would you be invited to
just come right in and be a part of this country?

A variety of seminars and workshops offered this
Friday and Saturday at the Student Center and the
Catholic Newman Center will address migration
today.

Sister Mary Louise Sullivan, director of the Seal-
abrini Pastoral Institute Center for Migration Studies
in New York, will present the programs. Sullivan has

Pharmacy, proposed last year to have Sullivan as at

art of the “Distinguished Speakers” series resented
by the Newman Center. When she accepte the invi-
tation, he thought she would be a good speaker for
the entire university.

“Immigration is at the forefront of issues, and will
probably evolve as a political issue during the upcom-
ing campai ,” Deluca said. “While she was going to
be here wit the Newman Center, we wanted to see if
this was of interest to the campus community.”

On Friday at 1230, Sullivan will give an informal
seminar in 230 Student Center. She will cover the
plight of today’s immigrants and federal policy
changes regarding migration.

into current time,” Deluca said. “What kind of recep-
tion is there now for immigrants? How are people
being received today?”

Friday evening at 7:30 Sullivan will speak at the
Newman Center. discussing the work in the early
19005 of Mother Frances Cabrini with immigrants,
and how her work connects with issues facing immi-
gration today. Workshops expanding this topic will
be presented Saturday from 9-noon at the Newman
Center.

Sullivan has helped to develop the national Office
for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Refu es while
working for the National Conference 0 Catholic
Bishops. She also has founded a seminary in Philadel-
phia where she taught religious education.

Senato Council
endorses plan

By Alison Ki Tl'tt

Executive Ft itor

The green light has been given for the Green
Lights program by the UK Senate Council.

The council voted to endorse the program,
which is part of the Environmental Protection
Agency's plan to brin r more energy efficient and
cheaper lighting to col ege and university campuses
across the country. along with corporations, envi—
ronmental groups, electric utilities and state, city
and local governments.

The program is being lobbied for by Trista
Claxon, chairwoman for the Student Government
Association Environmental Concerns Committee.

Claxon said she was happy with the endorse—
ment from the Senate Council.

“I was totally thrilled with their response,” Clax—
on said. “I’m really excited about the prospects and
possibilities for the Green Lights program at UK.“

In a memorandum to UK president Charles
\Vethington, Chairwoman of the Senate Council
Gretchen LaGodna recommended that the Uni—
versity “promote the Green Lights goals to the
extent possible and to consider entering into 3 vol—
untary agreement with the EPA.“

Green Lights is a voluntary and profit—based
pollution prevention )rogram which promotes the
widespread use of eliicient lighting systems that
could reduce emissions of pollutants associated
with global warming, acid rain and smog.

Claxon said changes at UK would only be rec-
ommended if improving the lighting is profitable
and lighting quality is maintained.

The Green Lights program already has been
endorsed by the Student Government Association,
the UK Sierra Club and the Kentuck ' Kernel Edie
torial Board, but needs approval by the University
administration to be implemented.

Claxon said the administration is working with
the State Division of Energy and officials from the
EPA to estimate costs for UK.

“Right now there are some internal workings

oing on to assess the possibilities for UK with the
goth the State Division of Energy and the Green
Lights Program.”

No. 1 [lit to face last SE1: road test:

By Chris Easterling

Arrirtrmt Sports Editor

UK has regained the top spot in
the Associated Press poll, 12
weeks after surrendering the spot
in November to Massachusetts.
UMass was No. l in the country
until losing to George \Vashing—
ton Saturday.

The (Eats (24-1 overall, 14-0 in
the Southeastern Conference) will
get their first opportunity to
defend their ranking tonight when
they travel to Auburn for a 0:30
tipoff against the Tigers.

UK coach Rick Pitino said even
after the Cats’ 94—63 win at Flori-
da Saturday, he would keep
Uhlass N0. 1 for very obvious rea—

 

 

sons ~- both teams have one loss,
and UK's loss came from the Min—
utemen.

“They have some nerve." Piti»
no said jokingly yesterday about
the results of the poll.

Pitino also saw reason for the
pollsters to cast their ballots the
way they did.

“It's like foot-
ball or any other
sport, it‘s how you
are playing lately,"
Pitino said. “I
wouldn’t say
(UMass) has been
struggling, but
they've been in a Pitino
lot of tough ball—
rames and could have lost a num—
her of games."

While being No. l is nice, Piti-
no and his players have their eyes
set on only one sight:

“The main thing we want is a
number one seed in the (NCAA)
tournament," juniorjeff Sheppard
said.

“That‘s anywhere from number
one to number four (team in the
country)."

This will be UK’s first actual
road test as a No. 1 team this sea-
son. UK’s first three games as the
top—ranked team in the country.

The \Vildcats played on neutral
courts ~— Springfield, Mass, for
the Tip—off (Ilassic against Mary—
land; Auburn Hills, Mich., for the
Massachusetts game; and Indi—
anapolis to play Indiana — unless
you don't consider Indiana )olis to
be a “neutral" site to play the
Hoosiers.

 

But L'K will travel to Auburn's
Beardliaves Memorial Coliseum,
not exactly the easiest place in col-
lege basketball to play. To add
ruore excitement to an already
raucous crowd, it's the last home
game for the 'Iiigers' three seniors
— Lance \Veems, Reid (Ilark and
Ray Donald.

“1 would have liked to have
been number one going into the
Vandy game (Saturday), not the
Auburn game," Pitino said.

“But it doesn't matter right
now."

The last time the (Iats ventured
into enemy SEC country as the
nation's No. 1 team, they travelled
home from Nashville, Tenn., the
victims of a 101—86 rout at the
hands of\'anderbilt in 1993.

Tony Delk said the Cats have
to keep their eyes on their goals in
order to maintain their status.

“Anybody"s capable of having a
bad game." Delk said. “I think it's
important for us to keep focused
each and every game, not that
(UMass) wasn’t."

Tourney projection

Pitino speculated yesterday
where the (Eats would be playing
when March Madness begins.

“I would say ‘(x‘o .Vlilwaukee,
young man. go Milwaukee,m said
Pitino in reference to the probable
first and second round site for UK.

He also saw L'Mass, barring
any major collapse, as the No. 1
seed in the East region, UK as the
top seed in the Midwest and
Kansas in the \\'es‘t.

Pitino said Connecticut would

If there is a position on the team where Auburn matches up well with UK. it’s in the
backcourt. Wes Flanigan and Lance Weems both are dangerous offensive
players. Flanigan is leading the Southeastern Conference in assists. while Weems
is leading the conference in three-point goals a game. Tony Delk is in somewhat of
a shooting slump recently. He has shot below 50 percent in his last five games.
Delk is hitting 51.5 percent of his shots for the season.

UK must contend with Auburn‘s Pat Burke on the inside. Burke is the fourth-leading
rebounder in the SEC. averaging 8.7 boards a game. The Cats did a terrific job on
the glass against Florida Saturday, outrebounding the Gators 51-30. Antoine Walker
was huge, as he ripped down 11 rebounds to go with his 20 points to lead UK in
