Enrollment rises despite
national downward trend

By WALLY HlXSON
Kernel Staff Writer

University enrollment rose this fall.
contrary to a national trend, with
increases occurring in fields with the
greatest job demand.

There are 20,352 students now enrolled
compared to 19.838 a year ago, reported
the Office of Admissions. The number is
expected to reach nearly 22,000 when
figures are received from the Ft. Knox
Community College. evening classes and
special programs holding registration this
week.

“AT A TIME when many colleges and
universities across the nation are
experiencing either a decrease or
levelingoff in enrollment. it speaks well
for the University of Kentucky that the
number of students desiring to attend this
institution continues to increase." said
President Otis A. Singletary.

There are 4.359 freshmen, eight per cent
more than last year. but only 2.784 are
beginning this semester. The rest started
in the spring or summer or didn't earn
enough credits their first year to become
sophomores,

All but 416 freshmen are from Kentucky
and transfer students increased by nine
per cent

ENROLLMENTS ARE increasing in
fields in which the Placement Service has
the greatest success finding jobs for
students The University places more

engineering students in jobs than any
other graduate area, said Col. James
Alcorn, placement service director.
Accounting, business administration and
agriculture follow closely. he said.

The College of Business and Economics
enrollment rose from 1,933 to 2,230
students, the largest number increase. The
College of Agriclture had the largest
percentage gain. with 14 per cent more
students than last year.

Although the College of Engineering
increased from 999 to 1,080 students, junior
and senior level enrollments dropped 10
per cent.

l-‘RESHMAN ENROLLMENT rose 21
per cent and there are 40 per cent more
sophomores than last year. James Funk.
dean of the College of Engineering.
attributed the increase to “better
publicity. strong demand and high starting
salaries for graduates."

Enrollments in other fields decreased,
particularly in education and allied health
professions. Alcorn said liberal arts
graduates had the most difficulty finding
employment.

Enrollments declined sharply in the
College of Education and slightly in the
College of Allied Health Professions.

Education enrollment skidded for the
third consecutive year, with 220 fewer
students than last year. The largest drop
was in secondary education, particularly
in English and social studies, said Daniel
S. Arnold, associate dean for teacher
education and certification.

President Ford grants Nixon unconditional pardon

B) THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON -—President Gerald
Rl‘ord granted Richard M. Nixon ”a free.
full and absolute pardon" Sunday for any
criminal conduct during his presidency.
and Nixon responded with a statement of
remorse at “my mistakes over Water~
gate.“

Within hours after Ford's suprise
announcement. White House Press
Secretary Jerald F. terHorst resigned in
protest.

Ford made the announcement in his
Oval Office to newsmen and photo-
graphers saying, “I feel that Richard
Nixon and his loved ones have suffered
enoughf’

THE FORMER PRESIDENT responded
from his home in San Clemente, Calif,
with a statement in which he admitted no
criminal wrongdoing but said, “One thing
i can see clearly now is that l was wrong in
not acting more decisively and more
forthrightly in dealing with Watergate."

Two hours after Ford‘s announcement.
presidential aides made public the terms
of an agreement reached Saturday under
which the federal government will be
given custody of Nixon‘s public papers and
controversial tape recordings,

However. the agreement specified that
all the tapes will be destroyed within five
to 10 years v~—sooner should Nixon die
within five years.

PHILIP BUCHEN. White House coun-
sel, told reporters that Ford granted Nixon

a sweeping pardon without any strings
attached, However. he acknowledged that
Ford might have taken a different court.
or delayed a decision, had he not been
informed in advance of the gist of Nixon's
planned statement of response and the
agreement covering the documents of the
Nixon presidency.

Student Center regulations may
for local Chamber of Commerce

By KAREN HOSKlNS
Kernel Staff Writer

Following a request by the Lexington
Chamber of Commerce, the University
will temporarily relax a regulation
requiring groups using the Student Center
for activities to be affiliated with
registered student organizations, said Ray
Hornback. vice president for University
relations.

“With the closing of the Phoenix Hotel
there is no facility in Lexington that will
handle convention groups over 500," said
Hornback.

“The Chamber approached the Student
Center Board (SCB) and asked that groups
that cannot be housed anywhere else in
Lexington be permitted to use the Student
Center Grand Ballroom," Hornback said.
The ballroom has a capacity of up to 800
people.

The SCB has already made the decision
to allow use of the facilities. said

in announcing the pardon. Ford said any
move to try the former President might
have taken months or years during which
"ugly passions would again be aroused.
our people would again be polarized in
their opinions. and the credibility of our
free institutions of government would
again be challenged at home and abroad,"

Hornback. but the final announcement will
be made in a couple of weeks. Use of the
ballroom will be permitted only if the
group can‘t find other accommodations
and if the ballroom is not already reserved
for a student function. he said.

Hornback said that use of the facilities
might also be limited by the University's
inability to make reservations as far in
advance as conventions require.

“We haven't really discussed the types
of groups that would use this." said
Hornback. “We have no restrictions at
this time because we are at the formative
stage." Hornback said that each case
would be judged on its own merits. but
could not say what those merits would be.

Hornback said that only a limited group
of gatherings would be involved. “We
might not even get any requests." he
added.

The change in rules would be temporary,
said Hornback. “This is only a stop-gap

"My consCience tells me clearly and
certainly that i cannot prolong the bad
dreams that continue to reopen a chapter
that is closed. My conscience tells me that
only i. as President. have the consti-
tutional power to firmly shut and seal this

book." he said
(‘ontinued on Page I

be suspended
gathering

measure.“ he said. “It would last only
until the new Lexington Hotel or
Convention Center open. This is a good-will
gesture on our behalf toward the
community." said Hornback.

Hornback said the special treatment for
the Chamber of Commerce was because
“the Chamber is dif erent from other
organizations because the University is a
member itself. if the Student Center were
open to everyone the situation would be
unmanageable.

Student Government President David
Mucci said he has no problem with the new
procedure as long as consistency is used in
establishing criteria for groups and
organizations.

He said the issue would probably be a
topic for the upcoming hearings on the
Student Code since the new procedure is a
change in University policy.

Presidential pardon
was an early decision

Many Americans emitted a sigh of
relief when Richard M. Nixon
resigned from his cancered presi~
dency. ”The Constitution lives."
many offered.

Again, many Americans may claim
that the Constitution lives as they face
President Gerald Ford's decision.
granted by a constitutional privilege.
to pardon Nixon from any criminal
wrongdoing as 37th President of the
United States.

The decision is premature. per-
emptory. and disagreeable. but it is
one the American people must now
live with. Ford‘s pardoning of Nixon
so soon compromises the nation‘s
sense of justice. law. and Consti-
tutional principle.

Even in his response to Ford's
pardon. Nixon avoided admitting to
any criminal wrongdoing. Yet. with a
knowledge that for many months his
statements were saturated with lies.
many Americans considered a
criminal trial of Nixon the only path
to the truth. Ford‘s blanket-pardon
may cause many to now suffer from
an incomplete understanding of the
Watergate events and consequently
be cheated from an awareness of the

lessons that would have been gained
from a trial.

Vengeance was not the reason for
Nixon‘s trial. As Francis L.
Loewenheim. associate professor of
history at Rice University. said
before the announcement of the
pardon:

“Our principal problem is not what
to do about Mr. Nixon. Our principal
problem is to ferret out all that he and
his accomplices. active and passive.
did. and sought to do. while he was in
the White House."

President Ford and members of
Congress seem to be content that the
Watergate events may never be fully
open to the American public.

During his first speech as
President, Ford said. "Our long
nightmare is over.“ And Sunday in his
surprise announcement. he said. “I
cannot prolong the bad dreams and
continue to reopen a chapter that is
closed." Ford said he wanted to direct
his presidential authority to imme-
diate problems of the country. His
decision to move forward and leave
the past to gather dust deprives many
Americans.

 

l‘idtlmials represent the opinions of the editors. not the l'niu‘rsliy

As the trials of Nixon subordinates
continue. Americans may get an
inkling of the true role of the former
president. But the partial truth won‘t
be enough to satisfy the annals of
history.

We believe. as does Sen. Lloyd M.
Bentsen of Texas. that “History
should record whether this man was
guilty or not.”

B.G.S. degree
is proving

its worthiness

in 1972, when the University Senate
instituted the bachelor of general
studies (BUS) degree program,
many were pessimistic about its
future.

Some faculty members and admin-
istrators foresaw the incipient death
of the. liberal arts educational
tradition. They feared that students
would abuse the proffered freedom by
choosing only the easiest courses.

Clearly that has not been the case.
Relatively few students have enrolled
under the B.(}.S. aegis. approxi-
mately we at present.

While course requirements are
certainly more flexible than for the
traditional BA. or BS. major. they
are not as generous as some might
think. BUS. students must still fulfill
five of the eight general studies‘
areas. in addition they must take 45
hours of courses above the 300 level,
and 90 of the 120 hours needed to
graduate must be within the (‘ollege

demands more from its followers than

to define their own objectives and

l’nfortunately. graduate and pro-
fessional schools may not agree with
the BUS. graduate‘s objectives.
particularly regarding foreign lan—
guage requirements. Any student
interested in graduate school would
do well to find out what is required for
acceptance before enrolling in the
B.G.S. program.

Organized education cheats its students

By NICHOLAS VON HOFFMAN

WASHINGTON — Next to the back-to-school ads in the
papers the surest sign that the autumnal education
struggle has recommenced is the resurgence of teachers’
strike news. It is remarkable how so many of our
perennial school controversies have so little to do with
education.

Come this December, 10 years will have passed since
raucus calls for reform and pedagogical responsiveness
were detonated at the University of California at
Berkeley. Now, in the clarity of elapsed time, we can see
that very little has changed. We have coed dorms, a few
anemic minority group programs, and the slightest
loosening of some of the aggravating rigidities, but in the
main all is as it was.

AMERICAN YOUTH is still expected to spend 16
consecutive years on its collective butt learning how to
pass an infinite series of computercorrected exams
devised in a cave located somewhere under Princeton,
New Jersey. A certain number of children thrive on this,
but millions more only make it from first grade through

the last year of college thanks to the truancy and child
labor laws and the early deaths of their frantically
anxious parents. Millions of others drop out, to use the
expression the educationalists employ to blackball those
who can’t stop fidgeting in class.

Luckily for us, organized education hasn’t been able to
secure a monopoly on the teaching of every useful task.
Apprenticeships, or on-the-job training, continue to
flourish. If you can no longer learn to be a lawyer by
clerking that’s still the way you learn to be a high—steel
iron worker. The job is too difficult and dangerous to be
learned in a school.

“For the neophyte iron worker. running the iron is a
crucial test. The new apprentice must work high above
the ground with nothing beneath him but a
fourto-eight-inch beam.

“He receives no training or advice about maintaining his
balance or maneuvering across the steel. He runs the iron
before the critical eyes of other workers. His only clue to
proper performance is the performance of other workers.
The poise and confidence they display tell him what his

colleagues expect." writes Jack Haas (in “Learning to
Work," edited by Blanch Geer, Sage Contemporary Social
Science Issues, Beverly Hills, 1972).

Little on-the-job training is formal. Since the learning is
in a work situation where the first objective is to get the
job done. the apprentice must fight for his knowledge
either by positioning himself so he can see how the work is
done or by figuring out ways to get older workers to teach
him. While this favors the aggressive apprentice over the
bashful one, it also reminds us of the foolishness of trying
to teach youth what youth doesn't yet want to learn.

ASIDE FROM the grief it would save parents, students
and teachers to have a school system that comprehends

that all people cannot learn the same things the same way
at the same time. imagine the proficiency for the country
and the satisfaction for individuals of a flexible.
non-age-determined mixture of school and work. It might
even liberate us from the expensive burdens and neuroses
of degrees, credit hours and grade-point averaages.

Women's Center discusses
cause and effect of rape

Hy LYN HACKER
Kernel Staff Writer

In a day-long rape workshop
held Saturday on campus, a
series of speakers led discussions
on the causes, effects and the
prevention of rape.

Speakers from the Lexington
Women's Center. the Rape (‘risis
(‘enter and various other groups
conducted the sometimes light,
sometimes serious discussions on
rape related problems and the
social myths that seem to
perpetuate them.

“It is a myth of society that
women cause rape." said Patty
Hard. member of the Rape (‘risis
(‘enter

SHE SAID only about four per
cent of rapes are caused by the
woman and the myth contends
that many more are prompted by
the way a woman acts or dresses

Hard said that women must
assert themselves and let their
feelings about rape be known or
the myths will continue to be
believed.

"Hopefully, women will begin
to feel angry about rape." she
said. ”but society doesn‘t en»
courage women to be aggres-
sive.”

.\ RAPE victim is forced to
suppress her trite reaction to the
crime and deny her feelings
about it, Hard said.

She is even forced into feeling
guilty because of the myths

connected to rape by society. she
added

“A rape victim feels absolute
terror," Hard said. “Her whole
self—image is stamped into the
ground.

“Sl't‘ll AN experience always
changes the way a woman looks
at herself," she continued. “After
the initial shock of rape wears
off. she tries to deny feelings she
may have and there's a good
chance they will come back."

Hard said the victim will
nearly always have to rebuild her
life.

Dr. Betty Rudnick, assistant
dean of nursing at UK, told the
workshop participants. “We are
here to get our awareness
heightened."

“I HOPE through this work-
shop and others like it we can
reach the gut. or genital level.
when women realize that when
they are raped they are the
victims and not the culprits." she
said

Rudnick said the causes of rape
run counter to the myth that the
women is responsible.

She called the myth of the
woman‘s responsibility the “fa»
tality of the unresolved erec-
tion.” and said the perpetuation
of the myth is due to the
“deliberate de-sensitization of
young men in society."

Rl'l)Nl('l\' SAID that rape is
not considered a sex crime in

some courts and in some cider
textbooks.

But, she said. “It is the
ultimate invasion of privacy. One
doesn‘t just mug and attack in
rape, one inserts one‘s penis in a
victim‘s mouth or vagina. So it is
a sexual act."

She said that some violent
rapists begin as sex offenders,
whom the police treat lightly. The
sex offender, she said. is the
classical case of a man with low
selfesteem and no other way to
express himself.

The workshop, co-sponsored by
the Lexington Women Center,
Rape Crisis Center and UK
Student Government, ended with
discussions on rape and marriage
and the legalities of rape.

THE RAPE Crisis Center said
their telephone “crisis line” will
be in operation by the end of
September.

Part of the purpose of the
workshop was to solicit volun-
teers to man the crisis phone,
said Dianne Marion. publicity
coordinator for the Center.

People interested in volunteer
ing should contact the Center
through the Lexington Women's
Center.

Members of the Center have
refused to announce the crisis
line’s location because the
volunteers will be there alone and
“we don‘t want to invite trouble,"
Marguerite Floyd, member of the
Center said.

be required to bring about any
trial of the former President.

Buchen told reporters he was
authorized to quote Jaworski as
saying that the widespread
publicity given Nixon's resigna-
tion and impeachment hearings
before the House Judiciary
Committee would “require a
delay before the selection of a
jury is begun of a period from
nine months to a year and
perhaps longer."

A SPOKESMAN for Jaworski
said the special prosecutor‘s
office played no direct role in the
decision to pardon Nixon but
said. “obviously we accept it."

Speaking slowly in a dramatic
appearance at his desk in the
white House Oval Office. Ford
said. "it is common knowledge
that serious allegations and
accusations hang like a sword
over our former President 's head
and threaten his health as he tries

to reshape his life."

 THE KENTUCKY KERNEL. Monday, September 9. 1974—5

Farmer's Market cuts out the middleman

Purchasing items from the
tailgates of station wagons and
the beds of pickup trucks, local
consumers are beginning to take
advantage of the Lexington’s
Farmer's Market —~ a place
where shoppers may avoid the
costs of the middleman between
the farm and the dinner table.

The market, operating in its
second year, is located on a lot
adjacent to the W. Main and Cox
Street intersection. It’s an open
air affair and when the sky is
clear consumers and farmers
flock to the location. Products
consist mainly of vegetables and
fruits. ranging from apples to
zucchini squash, but a variety of
flowers and greenery can also be
found.

Lexington farmer Louis Moore,
track superintendent of the Red
Mile 'l‘rottiiig ’l‘rack. said, “l try
to sell a little bit under the stores
so the housewife can save a little
money. I'm well known and I sell
on reputation. too,"

(‘arol Mayfield. director of the
farmer's Market. is pleased with
he turnout of sellers and
shoppers and said many of the
participants from both groups
regularly attend each session of
the production

Besides the unpredictable
weather that central
Kentucky suffers from each year

last week's sales were down
because many farmers had to

stay home and catch up on
tobacco work that had been
slow ed by rainy weather
Mayfield says her biggest worry
is a permanent location,

seasonal

“The state gave us this land to
use, " Mayfield said of the present
location, “but we’re looking for a
new location, a site with
overhead protection, something
permanent.

“We'd like to keep it downtown,
though. Our downtown site is
accessible to walk-in trade and I
think if we moved to any one of
the Lexington suburbs the

'character of the market would
change," she said.

Dr. Dean Knavel, of the

University horticulture depart-
ment, agreed that a permanent

site for the market would be
beneficial.

“Our future in this country is
going to be based upon the small
farmer. With rising costs in
transportation and mechaniz-
ation, and economic problems
associated with labor, we will be
depending upon locally grown
produce, raised on the small
farm,” Knavel said.

The market will continue to
operate as long as the crops last,
Mayfield said, sometime in
mid~0ctober. The market
operates from 9 am. to 2 pm.
each session.
