transfer sttideiits' trouble getting

"If students take a set of cours-
es that satisfies the requirements
at his or her university. under cer—
tain conditions the courses can
satisfy (requirements) at any state
institution." said Louis Sw ift. deaii
of undergraduate studies.

Under the general education
agreement, students must have

ences and oral comiiiunication,
and also have taken l5 hours spec—
ified by his or her institution.
Now in addition to those 48, all
the institutions have included 12
hours in the iiiaior.

This second part of the agree-
ment, introduced as Senate Bill
NS by Tim Shaughnessy (l)—

allows universities to include the

By Jill Erwin

Senior Staff ll 'rlter

Rick Pitiiio strode to the
home bench in Rtipp .-\retia, a
journey he had made many
times in his eight years as head
coach at L'K.

More than 15,000 fans in
attendance rose en masse and gave
a thundering ovation for tiiore
than 45 seconds, as they had done
so often during those eight years.

He paused to shake hands
with the opposing team's coach-
ing staff. as he always had.

He waved to the fans as he
passed the scorer's table, flash-
ing a smile of appreciation for
the welcotiie, as was his habit.

However, this time, things
were different.

Pitino, new head coach of the
NBA Boston Celtics. made a
less-than—spectacular return to

Central Kentucky Community
Leadership Program (CKCLP) is
trying to accomplish in Lexington.

The program got good news
recently. Lexington was chosen as
one of 10 communities in the
country that will participate in the
Pew Civic Entrepreneur Initiative,
a nationwide project designed to
equip a diverse group of commu—
nity leaders for playing greater
roles in their communities.

Lexin ton's team, a group of
20 highfy diverse people, will
attend two national training insti—
tutes. one Nov. 12—16 in Colorado
Springs, Colo., and May 2841
next year in Scottsdale. Ariz.

“This group is diverse in so
many ways, it's phenomenal,"

said Bibbs, a team member. “\Vc
have a real mixture."

The team is made up of 10 men
and 10 women: eight white, seven
black, one Arab-Aiiierican, one
japanese, one I lispanic. one Asian-
lndian and four bi-racial people
ranging in age from 15 to 69.

“Everybody".s etting along,"
Bibbs said about t e group, which
has had several meetings about
how they as leaders can guide the
community. “\Wiy can't the
entire city do the same thing?"

The team from Lexington
being chosen as one of It) speaks
well of the community, said Sue
VVeant, a member of the CKCLP
media relations committee.

She said 1 30 people applied for

the team. That number was
reduced to 60 people who were
interviewed for the 20 team mem-
ber and five alternate positions.

UK Department of Medicine
professor Raj Chawla was chosen
as a leader of the community.

“T hate the term leader," he
said. “But I consider myself an
activist."

Chawla came to Lexington from
Atlanta where he helped organize a
Third \N'orld film festival of short
films frotii underdeveloped coun—
tries. lle now hosts a show on
“'RFL called “Music from lndia."

“I feel very strongly Lexington
can become an international
city,” he said. “1 think this is an
exciting town."

Patrick Mooney. a sociology
professor, said, “(The team) is an
opportunity for me to work with
people of different parts of the
community. of different commu—
nities l guess you could say."

The project should make bet—
ter leaders out of the members, he
said. Then, they could pass their
leadership abilities on to other
members of the community.

“l think it's a real good pro am
in that sense," he said. “Kala-mg
leaders from the grass roots."

So far, the team has had sever-
al meetings for them to get famil-
iar with each other, develop skills
as civic leaders and discuss ideas
about a project on which they will
collaborate in the future.

Relief is on the way for work
study students who haven't been
paid since the beginning of the
semester.

Leisha llelton, a political sci—
ence work study senior. has
worked it) hours a week since the
beginning ofthis setiiester and has
not yet received her first pay»
check.

,\ week ago llelton received .i
petty cash advance to tide her over
until she receives her check.

The work study office recently
had a meeting to discuss the
(lL‘lLl'\I\.

“It turns out that there were
only its‘ students. not 80. that went
unpaid to begin with." said David
Prater. associate director of the
Financial .\id ()ffice.

“Most of the students have
been taken care of with student
loans or petty cash advances."

Two years ago. the work study
program was restructured so stu—
dents would be able to pick their
own job assignments. Payroll
paperwork that had previously
been completed during the siiiii~
mer months had to be pushed to
the beginning ofthe school year.

“The restructuring has created
a bottleneck because students
can't fill out the appropriate fortns
until the first week of school,"
Prater said. “Therefore the
amount of time we have for pro-
cessing and locating missing forms
is more than ctit iii half."

Prater said the work study
office made itself explicitly clear
on the issue of forms and their
deadlines. ,-\iid, he said. it
informed work study students
who experienced delays in pay
about available student loans and
petty cash advances that could
take tip the slack until paychecks
were issued.

However, Shelton said her
work study packet, unbeknownst
to her, was missing crucial pa cr-
work, although it did incliide
another student's award letter.
Shelton also said that when she
called the work study office she
was told her only available option
was to apply for a loan.

“I only found otit about the
petty cash advance because I work
in a budget office and have easy
access to the forms I needed,"
Shelton said. “Most of the work

By Manlah Bhalla
3243' Writer

The Student Development
Council at UK 'ves out the annu-

al Partners for xcellence awards
each spring semester to deserving
organizations on campus for their
contributions to the school.

Althou h letters have been sent

to remin the presidents of nearly '

every campus or anization of the
awards, the app ications are not
scheduled to go out until the mid—
dle of next semester.

“Organizations don’t realize
that the things that they do daily
can help them compete for this
award," said Josh Mitchell, co-
chairman for the Partners for
Excellence committee. “It’s a way
to recognize organizations on
campus that give back to the
University in many different
ways.”

By Gary Wull
Senior Staff Writer

The Kentucky Kernel has a

The paper, which will publish
twice this semester, will focus on

The awards are divided into
five divisions, Mitchell said. The
fraternity and sorority awards are
given at the Greek banquet while
the independent, dependent and
graduate organizations winners
are honored at the UK awards
banquet along with other awards
like the Singletary Scholarships.

Being a UK 101 student assis-
tant, a fall orientation leader or a
member of organizations like the
Student Government Association
or the Student Activities Board
serve as examples of activities
which the award committee is
looking for, he said.

Each organization is evaluated

“Thm are 0 ' dons which
are not only raising money for the
University, but also having volun-
teer hours,” said Jason Kuhlman,
president of SDC.

“I would like to encourage peo-
ple in organizations to submit an
application,” he said.

The Student Development
Council also works rigorously to
make the senior year of the stu-
dents as enjoyable as possible.

Events like the “Senior Chal—
lenge” and the “Big Blue Pass”
give-awa are an effort to raise
support or the senior class, said
Kuhlman.

Senior Challenge hosts a year-
long series of events that offer spe-
cial discounts, give—aways and T-
shirts to the senior class.

“(The SDC) is somewhat of a
pe committee for students, espe-
cia seniors,” Mitchell said.

he focus of the council is to

“We’ll publish about anything
you can think of, as Ion as it’s not

The Campus Mail is a “project”
for Manseau. He said that as a
senior he wanted to start some-
thing new.

Manseau, a journalism ma'or,
said the pa cr will be publis ed

Kuhlman said. “

The Historical Marker Project
involves installing a historical

raise from the phon-a-thons
also helps to finance the scholar—

that the seniors continue to show

student media outlets are the best
bet for students.

“I still think the best opportu—

“There’s a very solid place to train
those students.”

The majority of work study stu-

Management senior Tamica

The work study office ‘ is

considering going back to assign-
ing students positions during the
summer, Prater said.

“We would rather let the Stu
dents choose their own positions,
because they seem to have a high-
er level of job satisfaction,” Prater
said. “It’s just a matter of ironing
out the wrinkles.” "

Michele Ripley. director of
fine :\rts public relations. said iii
reference to the restoration of
(iuignol ’l‘heatre. "This is a mile—
stone occasion for the College of
lime \rts."

The theatre first opened with a
production of .\ lei/m in 194‘) after
the original (itiigiiol burned. The
first theatre was located on liticlid
across from the present day Stu-
dent (Leiiter.

It first housed production in
the l‘Ulls.

Ripley said some of the people
who were involved with the the-
atre in the ‘30s are helping with
the restoration.

The goal ofthc restoration. she
said. is to restore the look of the
theatre as it was in 194‘).

\lany of the changes are cos»
iiietic. such as recovering what
Ripley called “the (Ladillac of the~
atrc seats."

“They don't make them like
that anymore." she said.

()ther changes include stage
lighting that will capture the div
tinctive style of theatre as it
opened in W4" and better safety

fixtures.

The lobby will also be updated.
Ripley said it is not only an
entrance to the theatre but also an
entrance to the entire campus.
Renovators plan to knock out
walls to make it more traffic
friendly.

Since “H0. more than 500.000
patrons have attended events at
the (iuignol. ’l‘hroughout its his~
tory the theatre has served Lex—
ington community as well as the
L'niversity.

The Lexington (.hildren‘s
Theatre and Lexington Singers
are two groups that have used the
facility.

Several well known actors
began at the (iuigiiol 'l‘heatre.
iiicltidiiig_liiii \‘ariiey. Don (ial—
loway and Harry Dean Staton.
Screenwriter (Iharles l‘i. l’ogue
also got his start at the (iuignol.

“No stage or movie set ever
gives me quite the thrill l get
when I return to UK and trod
across the hoards of the (iuignol
Theatre." l’ogue said in a news
release.

“liach echoing footstep evokes
memories of early triumphs. old
friends who are still friends. and
most of all. a nurturing home
where the flames of my passion
were fanned. .iiid l was instilled
with a pragmatic. uiicoiiiproinis—
mg professionalism that would
capture the dreams of that pas-
sioii.

“My experiences at the (itiignol
w crc some of the happiest of my

life." said Poguc. who graduated
in 1973 with a bachelor's iii the?
atre. ,

()ne way the restoration ls
being funded is through a seat
campaign.

(itiignol contains 37-} seats
Contributors of $350 or more
receive a commemorative brass
nameplate mounted to the back of
a seat and recognition at the grand
opening. (iifts can also be given in
memory of special faculty or
friends.

“Three hundred and fifty dol-
lars is a very affordable gift in the
fundraising world." Ripley said.
She said this was done in an effort
to have students and former stu;
dents to contribute.

In an unprecedented thi]]()li~
stration. three local theatre groups
are contributing to the Restora—
tion Project.

The :\ctors‘ (iuild of Lexingv
ton. Studio Players and Phoenix
(iroup Theatre are each donat-
ing one night of ticket proceeds
from their current seasons in
appreciation of actors. directors
and technicians who graduated
from the [K Theatre Depart
ment and now support their
companies.

“The goal is 5350.000." Ripley
said. "and we are tip to $90,000."

The l’undraising was officially
announced Oct. 9.

Ripley said they have mailed
information to the graduates and
donations have been streaming
in.
