MARCH cll Students walk toward
the Administration Buildin yester—
day, protesting the denial o tenure to
[Mark Clary.

The procession crossed the
Patterson Office Tower Plaza,
chanting “viva la Clary” in unison,
referring to former assistant archi—
tecture professor Mark Clary.

“I am a student of architecture,
and I’ve been a student of Mark
Clary,” said Student Government
Association‘President T.A. Jones,

Robert
Hemenway yester a in support
of a professor w ose tenure

     
    

who was at the head of the proces-
sion. “As a member of the college
and as student body president, it is
my job to make sure that student
concerns are heard.”

Outside Hemenway’s office in
the narrow halls of the Adminis—
tration Building, the stu—
dents flanked the office
door and demanded a forum
with the chancellor.

“I appreciate the senti—
ment expressed by the stu-
dents of architecture,”
Hemenway said, “and I
would be glad to talk with

any of you individually.” Clary

But one member of the
crowd replied, “We’re all here.
Talk to us now.”

A 15—minute discussion
between Hemenway and the stu-
dents led to a 5:30 pm. meeting in
Pence Hall yesterday, but only to
discuss the procedure of tenure
review.

“It is inappropriate for me to
discuss the case of Mark Clary's
tenure,” he told the protesters,
“but I will speak about the general
process.”

Prior to the impromptu meet-
ing, about 150 students gathered
on the lawn outside of the build-
ing as Jones and Architecture Stu—
dent Council President Walter
Zausch read evaluation letters
from Clary’s tenure dossier, or
portfolio, and then answered ques-
tions posed by the outraged stu—
dents.

Hemenway met with the stu—
dents as scheduled and informed
them of the review procedure.

Universit policy states that
there are that components to
tenure review, Hemenway said.
Compilation of the documents for
these phases begins in the fall, but
the actual tenure review schedule

  

starts in January of each year.

First, the college dean must
review and submit an opinion on
the candidate’s work. Collectively,
the faculty is required to submit
their evaluation. Then a panel of
faculty members from various UK
colleges, or an area committee,
must review these components
before submitting their findings to
the dean of Graduate Studies.

The recommendation of the
dean must reach the chancellor’s
office by April 6, and then the
chancellor must turn his
recommendation into the
University president by
April 20.

According to docu—
ments gathered under the
Kentucky Open Records
Act, Clary’s dossier passed
through these steps during
the 1992—93 school year,
but his tenure was denied because
he failed to get approval from the
area committee or dean of Gradu-
ate Studies.

However, this decision was
reviewed, at Clary’s request, by
the Senate Advisory Committee
on Privilege and Tenure, and an
appeal was granted based on a flaw
in the procedure.

On April 28, 1994, eight days
after the deadline for the chancel-
lor to report the results of the
review to the UK president, the
College of Architecture received a
fax from the chancellor’s office
stating that Clary’s tenure request
had once again been refused.

The students of the College of
Architecture reacted immediately
to this decision.

“He got the faculty approval
and the dean’s approval, so basi-
cally the people who didn’t know
him, the area committee and the
dean of (Graduate Studies) are the
one’s who denied him approval,"
Zausch said in an April 29, 1994,
Kentucky Kernel article.

Over the course of three days,
Zausch led a campaign to compile
a petition with 194 student signa-

tures, out of an enrollment of
about 300, and they collected 87
individual letters of support,
which they delivered to UK Presi-
dent Charles VVethington.

These actions and another
appeal request by Clary prompted
the Senate Advisory Committee
on Privilege and Tenure to
encourage Hemenway to recon-
sider his decision.

Yesterday’s march, Zausch said,
was to express to the chancellor
the sentiments of the students

prior to his final decision.

Others at the march said this
expression is needed.

“I believe that we pay the
tuition, therefore we are the
employers,” said third-year archi-
tecture student Sean Feeley.

“We should have a stronger
voice,” he continued. “All we have
now are the little evaluations we
fill out. Those are just formality to
keep the students happy and make
us feel like we have a voice, when
we don't.

“This is a test of how much our
voice matters right here. Clary is
one of the best teachers in the
school.”

Clary, who is no longer
employed by the University, said
during a phone interview that he
was both surprised and pleased by
the students' show of support.

“Obviously, I’m deeply moved
and encouraged by their support
for my appeal. Sometimes, when
I’ve wanted to give up, their initia-
tive has kept the fire going."

The UK Athletics Association
helped bridge the gap between
sports and academics yesterday,
unanimously a roving a proposal
allocating atlilietic department
funds to the construction of the
Central and Life Sciences Library.

The proposal actually included
two separate resolutions.

The first provided a means for
funding the library, while the sec-
ond amended the department‘s
Articles of Incorporation allowing
for the redistribution of money.

“The athletics department is

delighted to play a role in the
building of this Commonwealth
Library,” said UK Athletics Direc—
tor C.M. Newton. “I also really
applaud (President Charles
\Vethington) for his leadership and
creativity in making this library
possible.”

Since UK has not received the
approval of the state legislature, it
could not fund the project inde—
pendently and went to the Alumni
Association for help.

In an attempt to garner financial
support, the Alumni Association
appealed to the Lexington—Fayette

Friedman helps
to encourage
student plays

By Maggie Plotkin
Stafl‘ W'riter

Mike Friedman, the latest
addition to UK’s theater
department, has his hands full.
But that hasn’t dulled his
enthusiasm. He already has
helped organize the Studio
Season, a program that allows
students to showcase original
works.

“The beautiful thing about
the series is that it is student‘
run theater," Friedman said.

Last year, student produc-
tions were a large part of the
theater program, but Friedman
said the process “was encrusted
with rules and regulations.”

“This University is littered
with resources where students
can perform,” he said. “We’re
opening the doors a little.”

There is a down side to the
new program, however. Only
six weekends in the semester
have been alotted for produc-
tion of student works. Fried-
man said he believes there are
more students than there is
time. He will point out other
areas, such as outdoor theater,
where people can perform.

Friedman, a Missouri
native, has spent the past seven
years at Elmhurst College in
Chicago. The transition to UK
has not been too difficult, and
for good reason. The associate
professor said there isn’t a job
in theater he hasn’t had.

After getting his master’s
degree at Indiana University,
Friedman “worked a lot of toi-
lets.”

He did melodramas and
variety shows and even worked
at a country western bar where
he had beer glasses thrown at
him. One job even led him to
teach at an Indian reservation.
Friedman also taught in the
Michi an prison system.

Alt ough he originallv took
the job at Michigan Reforma—
tory for financial reasons (he
needed storm windows for his
house), Friedman said he con-
siders his former job an educa-
tional experience.

“I learned more there than I
did in any other job."

Friedman chose to go to
Illinois because his current
wife lived in Chicago.

“I applied to every college in
the area, including those with
eight students, and hairdress—
ing academies,” he said.

Students drew Friedman to
UK .

“I came to UK to work for
the students,” he said. “Hands—
on theater is my favorite way to
teach.”

Friedman, who is part
owner of a small professional
theater in Vermont, said he
thinks he has a lot to offer
UK's theater department.

“I hope I have learned
things from my professional
experience that I can teach in
the classroom.”

Contributing W'riler

The theatre department’s stu-
dio series will continue tonight
with “Impromptu," a philosophi-
cal look at humanity told through
four actors brought together to
improvise a play.

The play is the second in the
series, following the successful
“Theodora: She-Bitch of Byzan-
tium.”

The play involves four actors
-— three “characters” and one real
person w who are given short
notice to come to the theater.
They are told to improvise a play
that not only imitates life, but “is
life.”

A conversation with the direc—
tor and cast, however, reveals that
there is more to this play than just
a story.

“It’s about the roles people play
around one another," director
Kara \Vooten said. “You don’t
walk out of this play with a ‘one
plus one equals two' feeling about
what it means; everyone will get
something different from it."

Senior Karl Lindstrom said,
“It’s about the masks people wear
and, more importantly, why they
wear them.”

Lindstrom plavs Tony, the one
“average guy” in the play who has

no trouble being himself.

The other three actors are hid-
den behind their respective
“masks.”

Ernest, portrayed by sopho—
more Nathaniel. ()rr (whom you
may remember as Toso in
“’I‘heodora”), is the overconfident
leading man. Ernest is a Cary
Grant-type, who thinks he is too
good for a production such as this.

Winifred (played by senior
Kelli Combs) has spent a lifetime
playing second to the lead and
parts that are “just perfect for
her."

This has left her with a cynical
outlook on the theatre and on life
in general.

Lora (senior Candace Weber)
is the sweet, moderately talented
girl—next-door who will agree with
anyone who will lead.

The play is designed to make
the audience look at their own
“masks” while taking them
through the full range of emo-
tions. “It's a very short play, but
it’s an emotional roller coaster,“
Wooten said. “It moves from
mood to mood within about 30
seconds.”

Combs said, “Even though the
play was written around 1940, it is
timeless. The thoughts and feel—
ings it inspires are just as real
today as they were then.”
