Erin Hogan cried in the hall-
way outside the SGA meeting
after her proposal passed on the
Senate floor.

She cried because despite the
fact that the floor approved her
request for $500 to go to the
National Champi-
onships for equestrian
competition, SGA pres—
ident Melanie Cruz
vetoed the bill.

Cruz uickly came
out to exrilain her deci—
sion to veto the bill to
Hogan.

“1 had to think of the fiscal sit-
uation ofthe senate,” Cruz said.

Cruz said she also was con-
cerned by the floor's six absten-
tions concerning the bill.

“We’ve never had six absten-
tions,” she said. “I'm afraid peo—
ple are afraid to vote.”

The vote itself was a close one,
passing 1 1-9-6.

“I understand how nice it is to
ride a horse and compete in a
Championship, but it is extrava-
gant to send one student and one
new student (her coach) for

Contributing Writer

Students may be paying $20 more in
fees next fall.

The technical fee, which is included in
tuition fees, is now $40. If a proposal is
presented to and passed by the UK board
of trustees on May 6, the fee will increase
to $60.

Gene Williams, vice president of UK

proposal. He said he has been working on

Chris Payne, the student representative
on the Committee on Instructional Coni—

“McDonald's starts off at so an hour,"
Payne said. “The labs start off at five."

Payne said the increase will benefit stu-

a regular basis, and paying better wages

lly. Assembly
ready to Wfll‘k

By Kathy Reding

.Vmu' [Cd/tor

Regardless of the governor's promotion of higher
education reform and endorsement and disapproval
of his plan from groups around the state. the final
decision comes down to one body: the (icneral
Assembly. '

Reaction to (iov. l’aul Patton's proposal has been
mixed among legislators, but most know it wrll not
pass without some changes. The question is just how
much of a change will be made.

Larry Saunders, president ofthe Senate, said sup-
port is increasin Y among Senate members for a coin—
promise that sti l gives UK an academic role in the
CommunityCollege System.

“The dam as originally written will not pass the
Senate," he said. “I don't know about the House."

Saunders said the governor realizes the postsec—
ondary education reform will not pass without some
type of compromise, and the governor is working
Wllll legislative leaders to ——————-——-
create one that is acceptable.

“l lc is Willing to give UK
academic control of the
community colleges,“ Satiri—
ders said. “\Vhat he does not
want to give is control of the
first strings."

Saunders favors this com-
promise, and he discussed
with the governor yesterday and will meet with Pat-
ton .igain today. Saunders said he does favor the
portion ofthc bill that creates the new Council on
l’ostsccondary l"ducation.

lo the other chamber of the (ieneral Assembly,
democratic floor leader (ireg Stumbo wants more
than just a compromise.

“I don't like it," Stumbo said ofthc legislation.

llis biggest complaint is with the proposed sepa-
ration of the community colleges from UK and cre—
ation ofa new Kentucky Community and Technical
College System.

“’l‘here's no compelling reason to do that (sepa-
rate them)," Stumbo said. “The community colleges
have provided a very worthwhile experience for stu—
dents in rural Kentucky."

Stumbo thinks the new governing situation
reduces the importance ofthe community colleges.

“\Vhat (Patton) wants to do is change the com—
munity colleges into vocational technical schools,"
he said. “It's very important to these students that
they are with UK."

He said UK hasn't done the best job with the
community colleges, but that they would be in worse
off in terms of securing private funds if they were

 

. not associated with UK.

Today is May Day -— a time to
celebrate life and the beginning of
spring.

Several UK students and facul-

grand finale of a semester-long
service learning project with the
seniors at Jessamine County

Nicholasville Elementary School.

The Senior Center was already

Undergraduate anthropologist
studies Costa Bioan monkeys

By Jason Feldmann
Contributing Writer

While most students are
unsure about their future, Vaun
Cummins is busy chasing his
dreams, or more precisely ——
monkeys.

Cummins, 24, an anthropology
senior specializing in primatology,
has a deep fascination with white
face capuchins, small New \Vorld
monkeys similar
to those seen in
the movie Our-
break and TV’s
“Friends." His
interests have led
Cummins to the
jungles of Costa
Rica, where he has
perfomied
research for the
past two summers.

“You're ri ht in the middle of
the forest," t e Louisville native
said of Costa Rica. “You got like
50 million things around that can
kill you. It's pretty exciting."

Cummins’ first summer in
Costa Rica was a month lon r
observation experience for which
he received three credit hours.

The second summer in Costa
Rica allowed Cummins to expand
on the general information he
learned on his first trip. He
received six credit hours for the
specialized independent research
he did on his second visit.

 

 

 

 

 

Cummins

“The next summer I had a bet-
ter idea of what I wanted to
study," Cummins said. “I was
there for three months this time
and could focus m research on
the behavioral eco ogy of white
face capuchins, with an emphasis
on locomotion."

In simpler terms, Cummins
studied the monkey's movement
through the trees. \Nhile humans'
physical movement is primarily
limited to land, monkeys are con-
sidered arboreal creatures, mean-
ing they move through the forest
frorri tree to tree.

“Birds fly, fish swim and
humans walk," Cummins said.
“But monkeys have many differ—
ent forms ofmovement."

A normal observation day
involved Cummins focusing on
one specific monkey. He would
follow that one subject around
and study its eating habits and
pattern of movement through the
course ofthe day.

If Cummins ever lost track of a
subject for more five minutes, he
would simply locate another mon—
key and follow its movement. He
would note the sex of the animal
and other physical characteristics
before studying its daily habits.

From his experience, Cummins
believes there is more to an educa—
tion than the classroom.

“I want people to know that
possibilities are out there," he
said. “Go out there and find out

what can supplement your educa—
tion. It’s more than just course-
work. There are other educational
opportunities, such as earning an
internship or oing to a language
school in anot er country.”

The consensus is that Cum-
mins is right. Monica L. Udvardy,
director of undergraduate stu-
dents in the anthropology depart-
ment, said students benefit from
outside study.

“I encourage all of my majors
to try and get some educational
experience," said Udvardy, Cum-
mins’ academic adviser. “1 get a
lot of brochures myself, and I send
out information on various pro-

rams through the undergraduate
Est serve.”
Although UK does not have a
rimatologist on staff, Cummins
has prepared himself for the
future. Deborah Crooks, an assis-
tant professor in the anthropology
department, said Cummins’ hard
work has paid off.

“In Vaun’s case, he did what he
could to make the most of the sit-
uation,” Crooks said. “I appreciate
his tenacity and give him all the
credit in the world. I think he has
been quite successful in reaching
his goals.”

Cummins has his hopes set on
graduation and later applying to
various masters programs in pri-
matology. He hopes to eventually
obtain a doctorate to teach and do
field research.

Members working

From PAGE 1

Stumbo also found fault with
the proposed new governing sys-
tem for all the institutions, the
Council on Postsecondary Edu-
cation with its “czar” president
that would direct the agenda for
all the universities.

“We need a full—time govern-
ing system with the role of solv-
ing disputes between the universi-
ties," he said. “A part-time coun-
cil can’t do it.”

He said since North Carolina’s
higher education system is used as
an example so often, Kentucky
might want to consider a similar
system that would put regional
universities under the control of
UK and U of L. He su gested the
University of KentucEy at Mur-
ray, Morehead, Richmond and
Bowling Green and the Universi-
ty of Louisville at Northern Ken-
tucky University because the two
of them are metro universities.

Saunders said debate and
amendments will result in what
he predicts will be approximately
a two-week le islative session. He
said much defiate and coalition—
forming is going on in prepara-
tion.

While he plans to to se

communi colle es with UK and

turn 0 has an amendment that
puts the technical schools under a
special UK committee with the
community colleges tem.

“You have to be a le to explain
your changes to the members,”
Saunders said. “It takes a lot of
time.”

Director C.M.

spokesman Brooks
Downing could
