Some Wantmore representation in search

By Jenniler Smith

(jump/o I'Iillflll'

Several members of the Uni—
versity community do not think
there is sufficient campus repre-
sentation on the chancellor for the
Lexington (:ampus advisory
search coiiitiiittee.

After receiving several coni-
plaints from professors and
department heads, especially in
the (Iollege of Arts and Sciences,
the University's Senate (:ouncil
wrote a letter expressing its dissat~
isfaction with the committee’s
make—up.

The eyes of unnamed soldiers
stare from the faded gray images
gathered in an campus exhibit
honoring black American war vet-
erans.

Photographs of \Vorld \I'ar I‘s

cer, Charles I). Young, and other
black soldiers frotn the Revolu-
tionary \\ ar to post- -Vietnam
mark the w ills of this exhibit.

It is part of a humanities series
to educate the public about the
significant contributions blacks
have made to medicine, science.
arts and history.

Doris Y. “ilkinson, professor
of sociology and director of
African-American Studies,
brought the exhibit to the Univer-
sity.

“The primary focus is to
inform and educate the public
about the significant contributions
of A.fric in~7 \mericans to the histo—
ry and culture of this country",
\\ ilkinson said.

The exhibit is an otitirrow th of

ter about his experience as a stew—

“I learned how to cook and run
a diner for officers and clean up
their quarters. I was inst like a but—

The exhibit is located in the

Students have good

time in Good Barn
By Jennifer Smith

(fan/put lid/tor

Landscape architecture students are
not raised in a barn, but they spend a
majority oftheir college careers in one.

The students spend anywhere from
20 to 100 hours a week on South (3am-
pus at the Ii. S Good Barn participating
in a rigorously competitive program.

Michael Hasenmyer, a Iourth- -year
student, said landscape architecture
means many sleepless nights and bad
habits.

“You don't really know why you get
into it." he said.

“I still don't know. There are days
and weekends I don't leave (the barn). I
don‘t eat or sleep or think about any-
thing except the project I'm working
on.

Although Hasenmyer sometimes
questions his choice of majors, there
are a lot of other students who want to
get involved in the program.

The landscape architecture depart—
ment, affectionately known as “LA."
to its students, is a selective program. It
only takes 25 students a year.

About 200 students apply each year
and are interviewed and about .50 or ()0
take the aptitude test to get into the
program.

First—year students Iill their basic
requirements. Second-year students
spend about 20 hours a week in the
barn and learn basic principles of
design and spatial element design.

IIasenmyer said “life ends" in the
third year when students can spend
from 40 to 80 hours a week in the barn.
In their third year, students take classes
in constniction, design and plant iden-
tiIication, and they start analyzing and
inventorying sites.

Fourth-year students begin basic
projects combining what they've
learned, and they spend about 100
hours working on them in the studio.
Fifth-years wrap up the things they
have learned and spend up to an entire
semester working on a single project.

Many of those projects are imple-
mented in the community.

Ilasenmyer said the work pays off,

though.

He and three other Iourth- -year stu-
dents presented a project yesterday to
the Housing Development Committee
for a low-income retirement communi—
ty.

The group designed an entrance
driveway, residential garden, private
residential area, surrounding lands and
a park that sits on the corner.

Sam (Iraper, president of the UK

chapter of the American Society of

Landscape Architecture, said there are
many misconceptions about landscape
architecture.

He said the first thing people ask
him when they find out he is in land-
scape architecture is how to Iix the
dying pansies in their backyards.

The second thing people tell him is,
“Oh, really, I have a brother who is an
architect. "

He could probably tell you how to
help the dying pansies but he said that
is not all he does.

And, he said, there is a big differ—
ence between landscape architects and
other architects.

“Architecture is the design of a
structure inside, the building and
stuff," (Iraper said. “I A. deals with
everything outside ofthat."

In addition to saving pansies, they
must have advanced knowledge of
fields like natural, social and behavioral
sciences.

They often have to play mediator
between different groups, such as set'

tlingr disputes between engineers,
architects, businessmen and enviroir
mentalists.

Second-year student (Shad IIunt
said although landscape architects sug—
gest and implement changes they try to
be considerate of the environment.

I hat s why we analyze :Hitl suivey
sight to make sure we re doing what” s
best for everyone involv"ed, Hunt said.
“\Ve try to enhance a sight instead of
destroying it

IIaseninyer said liiidsc. .ipe architece
ture provides him with a nice itiix
between the artistic side and the calcu-
lated, organized side of things and
nature.

“I don't think landscape architecture
is ill cre ativity. Ilasenmyer said. It‘s
all sensitivity to the people of th it
community, to the land and to all of
the other factors that get involved in a
project."

(iraper said landscape architecture
and the students that do it cannot be
summed up in a few simple words.

“\Ve know the ins and outs of every
person in here,” (iraper said.

“Spending 40 or ()(I or 100 hours
makes you realize how much you like
and enjoy what you are doing. There‘s
a certain passion and insanity that is
involved in this."

VThe ES. Good Barn. named after
Edwin S. Good, chairman at an animal
industries group. originally was a dairy
barn with cows on the lirst floor and a
haylott on the second floor. Now. it serves
as a studio Ior about 65 aspiring land-
scape architects.

V“Rumor has it that once upon a time the
hayloit caught on fire and that same alter-
noon they were still milking cows on the
bottom floor because (of) the concrete
ceiling that separates the two floors." said
Horst Schach, chairman and launder oi
the landscape architecture program.
