UK professor who helped dmfi KIRIS
says the test itself is not the problem

By Matt Felice

News lid/tor

Two independent studies
recently found flaws in the five-
year-old testing system created
by the Kentucky Education
Reform Act.

Skip Kifer of the UK Depart—
ment of Educational Policy
Studies and Evaluation is one of
the original draftees of the Ken-
tucky Instructional Results Infor—
mation System (KIRIS) test.

He said the results of the most
recent study, commissioned by
the Office of Education Account-
ability (OEA), brought to light
the fundamental problem of
rewarding schools which appear
to do well while sanctioning
schools which don’t meet the
standards.

For example, he said, results
from smaller schools are less

Frankfort

By Matt Felice
New: Editor

A 10-minute discussion on
faculty' workloads at last week’s
two-hour meeting of the Task
Force on Higher Education in
Frankfort eru ted" into full con-
troversy as a ew legislators took
the opportunity to publicize a
number of criticisms of Universi-
ty leadership.

But Sen. David Karem (D—
Louisville), the democratic floor
leader in the Senate, said Tues-
day in a telephone interview that
his questioning of the methods
used to obtain faculty workload
data for the Hi her Education
Accountability Eeport was not
intended as an attack.

“I thought the press really
blew it out of proportion,”
Karem said. “I simply asked a
question. The (faculty workload)
reports may actualy be very
accurate.”

In 1990, Senate Bill 109 was
passed holding state universities
to new standards of accountabili-
ty and requiring them to report
annually on their progress.

At last week’s meeting, Karem
had uestioned the fact that data
on ow man hours faculty
members war was obtained
from faculty themselves.

“I just sort of found some
humor in it,” he said. “I love to
cut my grass, and sometimes I
like to think about thin going
on in the legislature w ile I‘m
cutting the grass. Do I get to
count that as time spent working
with the Ie 'slature?”

But U President Charles

 

likely to be statistically accurate
than those from larger schools.

“That piece is bad law,” he
said.

But he thinks the test itself is
worth keeping.

“(The ()EA study) didn’t say
much about the qualigl of the
tests themselves,” he sai .

However, the study did state
that the tests may not be accurate
in determining how individual
students stack up in national per—
centiles.

Kifer said athering extensive
information afiout individual stu—
dents is not the purpose of the
test.

“The best information about a
parent’s child comes from a
teacher,” Kifer said.

“It doesn’t come from six to
eight hours of testing.”

Kelli Garnett, a special educa-
tion teacher at Cardinal Valley

Summwmfir' Tests mum! to be timed

Elementary and a UK Special
Education graduate, said one
problem with the test is that stu-
dents with learnin disorders
must participate an be held to
the same standards as other stu-
dents.

To compensate for the learn-
ing disorders, teachers are
required to read the materials to
the students, which she said may
test the students’ com rehen-
sion, but not necessari y their
reading skills.

“It puts them under a lot of
stress,” she said.

“We’d rather take the two
weeks it takes to test to continue
to teach."

But Kifer said having teachers
read the materials aloud was a
“proper adjustment,” adding
that in order to analyze the
progress of the whole school,
special education students should
not be excluded from KIRIS.

“What’s good for the goose is
good for the gander,” Kifer
added.

fuming DVBI‘ formula

Wethington said he knew of no
better way to obtain information
on the faculty workload.

“I respect the integrity of the
individual faculty member,” he
said.

Wethington also defended the
funding formula that the Univer-
sity uses to determine its budget
request against criticisms from
the legislature.

The formula was created in
1984 to minimize political
infighting over state allocations
to higher education, said Sen.Joe
Meyer (D-Covington), chairman
of the Senate Education Com-
mittee. But now, he said, it
needs to be re-evaluated to
“determine whether the ’re
objective statistics or if its a
means to lead decision makers to
some pre-ordained conclusion.”

“A lot of us get really tired of
hearing many in the university
leadership com lain about tax~
payer-supporte funding levels
as if they have some divinely
ordained right to increases of
funds,” he said.

Rep. Freed Curd (D-Murray),
chairman of the House Educa-
tion Committee, went so far as to
question the use of benchmark
schools in other states to com-
pare state fundin levels, sug-
gestin that al institutions
shoul be included in the com-
parison instead of a select few.

But UK Vice President of
Management and Budget Ed
Carter pointed out that bench-
mark com arisons have been
used b U since the 19605, and
that t e institutions included,
like UK, are the land-grant or

the primary doctoral-granting
institutions in their states.

“The funding formula is not
some statistical kind of budget
request generation mechanism,”
Carter said. “It is probably as
objective an approach based on
grantitative factors as anything

at exrsts in state government.

“I find it kind of interesting
that legislators o pose bench-
marking when the corporate
world takes the position that
benchmarking is very si ificant
to their management. e look at
our similar institutions the same
way Ford would look at Chrysler
and General Motors.”

Wethington said the legisla-
tors overlooked the CHE’s year-
long anal is of the validity of the
funding gimula, which conclud-
ed in May.

CHE Deputy Executive
Director for Finance Ken Walk-
er said the new formula is more
statistically accurate than the old
one.

“We will have a single-formu-
la calculation based on actual
data, so there will be no projec-
dons.”

He said the most significant
change, however, is that the new
funding objectives based on
schools in benchmark states actu-
ally produce smaller budget
re uests.

ethington said the legisla-
tive attacks were based on out-
dated figures.

“I think often times the criti-
cism directed at the formula is a
result of there not bein a com-
plete understanding 0 it,” he
said.

Merger with Lees pending :

By Jenniter Smith
Idmn In Chief

UK may be taking over a
struggling Lees College as early
Is lanuary and makintr it a
branch campus of Hazartlf( om-
munity College.

Lees, a private
two—year college
in Jackson, Ky. .,
has been stru
gling to pay ofFa
deficit of up to
$1 6 million and
other smaller
problems, said Wethington
UK President
Charles Wethington.

“The money concern is a
paramount issue, ”he said.

“Then, there are the accredi-
tation problems and they’ve been
on probation with the Southern
Association of Colleges and
Schools.”

Since last year, the college has
taken about $1 million from its
endowment fund to wipe out its
last remaining debts

If everything runs according
to Wethington’s plan, the merg-
er will be com leted byjanuary.

However, e wants all major
decisions made within the next
few weeks.

“We need to make a decision
this fall,” he said,

“because it’s in the best inter-
est of Lees College and all of the

 

people imolved. Lees b Is to
know its direction."

In order to complete a merger
of this sort Wethington said,
there are a lot of formalities that
have to be overcome.

They include the amount of
money the commu—

community colleges missions

tilt to teens on grad students

New commzttee to be appomted
will Study graduate programs

By Jenniter Smith
[1111101 In (. btef

Students in the graduate
schools: prepare to have the
spotlight shine on you this fall.

UK President C harles
Wethington told the University 5
Board of Trustees that he sees “a
real need to explore and study
the needs of the students In the
graduate schools."

Lately, he said the University
has been focusing on the quality
of undergraduate education and
it will shift some of that focus
toward graduate students as well.

With increasin graduate
school enrollment, fie said, now
is the prime time to study the
programs.

“We need to have better
information about the strengths
and weaknesses of the institu—
tion,” he said. “We need to study
its needs the possibilities Iif

growth and cuts. “e need to
review the graduate education
goal

He said some of the queitions
he hopes a committee of this
nature will answer are whether
UK wants to continue to increase
graduate student enrollment and
what areas need to be empha—
sized and worked on

Although there was not an

pointed committee to study
tfie facets of the undergraduate
education there were many se
arate committees that were loo-
ing for ways to improve educa-
tion for the undergraduates

Wethington said he believes
some of the positive things that
have come out of studies about
UK's undergraduate education
are the Increa;ed rate of UK's
full- -time faculty teaching 100
and 200 level courses, a “beefed-
up honors program," and
improvements in the advising

and transfer programs.

“’ethington would like to see
the committee be formed and
have some of their goals outlined
by the initial parts of the fall
semester. He wants the commit—
tee to be comprised of a broad
base of faculty, administrators
and students.

He said his fall semester goal
may be delayed slightly because
he wants to allow the new C han-
cellor for the l exington (. ampus
Elisabeth Zinser and the new
Vice President for Research and
Graduate Studies Ger
Bramwell to get acquainted witrfi
UK and its programs first

He said allowing time to study
the graduate programs will have
a positive impact on the program
and its reputation

“(The studies on undergradu-
ates) are having an impact, ”he
said

“Like most of these initiatives,
the end results are determined
over time. I’m absolutely con-
vinced our efforts to focus on the
institution, its teaching and
advising have improved. "

8“”. UNSOlVEn UK football player Trent DiGiuro was shot on birfi‘tmt

porch a year ago Monday. The care was never dosed.

Police have been able to rule
out a drive-by or point-blank
shooting. Gibbons said that they
know the approximate location
from which the shot was fired.

“It’s extremely frustrating,”
Gibbons said.

The memories of DiGiuro’s
murder are fading. And Assistant
Athletic Director for football
Jack Fligg said that the UK foot-
ball program is back On the right
track.

“I don‘t think anyone can ever
recover from something like
that,” he said.

“(The team has) had time to
adjust, but I‘m sure they still
think about him,” Fligg said.

Suzie Williams, DiGiuro's
next-door neighbor at the time
of the shooting, was awakened
the night of the murder by the
screaming of DiGiuros house-
mates.

Classroom is Wayne's world

Turnerplzms to bit the boo/es

By Ty Halpin
Senior Staff Writer

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. —
Refreshing, Wayne Turner’s
story is.

Like countless others before
him, Turner has escaped an
underprivileged nei hborhood
(Boston’s Mission Hi1?) and land-
ed a college scholarship for his
athletic privileges. But, in this
year when none of the first five
picks of the NBA Draft were old
enough to purchase a beer,
Turner’s tale is decidedly differ-
ent.

“All I’ve every really wanted
was to get a higher education,”
Turner said Monday night after
his club won the Junior Men’s
National Cham ionships here.
“Getting a col ege degree is
number one to me. Sure, I’d like
to play in the NBA, but there’s
no rushing that. I’ve always
wanted a degree.”

Turner — a slashing point
guard who has signed with UK
— was raised by his grandmoth-
er, Vir inia Kimble, and attend-
ed pub ic schools in Boston until
the eighth rrade. Then. his
dreams starte to reach fruition.

A friend at the time, A1 Rue,
had a connection that would fur-
ther Turner’s education to the
college level. Rue’s father was a
teacher and coach at Beaver
Country Day, a prestigious 300-
student private school on the
edge of the city.

The price tag ($15,000 for
four years) was normally beyond
Turner’s price ran e, but his
promising basketbalFskills and a
unique situation evened the

ledger.

“When Wayne came here, he
really needed a foundation that
he couldn’t get at a public
school,” said Aline Gery, director
of admissions at Beaver Country
Day. “The thing about Wayne
that I remember is he was always
surprised by his successes aca—
demicall and athletically. He’s
so humble about things that
nothing really phases him."

“To him, basketball is almost
incidental,” said Leo Papile,
Turner’s club coach. “He loves
the game, but it doesn’t consume
him.”

That should help the 19—year-
old Turner on and off the court
at UK in the fall. Not that any—
thing could phase the 6—foot-2,
ISO—pound point guard. For
most of his life, he’s made tough
decisions on his own, including
his commitment to the Wildcats.

“All the things Kentucky has
are perfect for me,” the soft—spo—
ken Turner said. “Most of the
schools I looked at already had a
point guard signed or someone
that was going to be there a
while. The Kentucky situation
just fit perfectly.”

To look at Turner’s life to this
point is to see that he already has

“I’m a little curious about (my

my grandmother about it once,

father were too young to have

sometimes, but I can’t change
any of that. I have goals that I

mainly due to Turner’s driving

outside shot unneeded.

\Vhat do Star Trek's \Villiam
Shatner and UK journalism
senior jill Sando have in com-
mon? Both are at the Red Mile
this week, competing in the Lex-

ington junior League Horse

Show.

The event, which is in its 59th
year, runs through Saturday and
showcases top American Saddle—
bred horses from across the
country. It‘s the world’s largest
outdoor show for American Sad-
dlehreds.

“This is the first leg of the
Saddlebred Triple Crown,” said
Junior League Vice Chairman
Amanda Wallin. “It’s definitely
one ofthe top shows to ride."

After the Lexington show,
Wallin said the riders will go to
the Kentucky State Fair, then on
to the American Royal Horse
Show in Kansas City, Mo.

“William Shatner is the per-
son most people identify with in
the American Saddlebred indus—
try," Wallin said. But just as the
horses hail from all over the
U.S., the riders represent people
from many walks of life. All are
here to compete for an array of
trophies, ribbons and cash.

This year, over 850 horses are
entered in the week-long event
in four primary divisions: Five-
Gaited, Three—Gaited, Fine
Harness and Pleasure. Sando’s
horse was the 1994 World
Champion Five-Gaited horse.

The spectators are a diverse
bunch as well. Some may be
tuite knowledgeable about the
slum and others may be first-
timers. Even if you know very

little about the
show, it’s not‘
hard to enjoy
the event.
Chances are,
with the help of
a show pro-
gram or anoth-
er spectator,
you’ll often
find yourself
picking the
same horse as
the judges.

If you’re
looking for a
memento of the
show, the Gait-
ed Gallery con-
sists of a wide
variety of spe-
cialty shops
offering every-
thing from
herb plants to
custom-made
jewelry and T-
shirts. The
shops are open
from 6 pm. -11

pm. each
night.

stomach, food
and drink are easy to find as well.

“It’s really a fun show,”
Wallin said, “and it also benefits
the community.”

The Junior League returns
proceeds from the horse show to
the Lexington community to
help with programs like God’s
Pantry, Lexington Rape Crisis
Center and many others. This is

the organization’s only money-
making project of the year.

The show continues today
and tomorrow at 9 am. and 7~
p.m., and concludes with the 7
pm. session on Saturday night.
Admission for the event‘is $3
Thursday, and $5 for the Friday
and Saturday sessions. Tickets
are available at the door.

“I’m basing the decision on

Asked why he would leave a

Javhawks coming to town

C ountry—
rock group
has changed
over years

By Sara Spears
Campus Editor

Just when you thought you
couldn’t afford to see any good
bands this summer, the Lexing—
ton-based Troubadore Concert
Series pulls through.

On Monday, July 17 at 8 p.m.,
The Jayhawks and openin act
Wilco will perform at the T(en-
tucky Theatre on Main Street.

With the release of their sec-
ond album, Tomorrow the Green
Grass, the Jayhawks feel that they
have perfected their “blend of
folk-country—rock.”

And even Johnny Cash, whom
the Jayhawks opened for several
times, said “the have at least
four hits on the a bum.”

The Jayhawks were born in
February of 1985 ‘and have stayed
together through their share of
hardshi s.

In t e beginning, the band
took a great deal of criticism
from others and dealt with out-
side personal problems that had
nothing to do with their music.

But even though the seemed
to have been put on tria , the Jay-
hawks made it through and final-
ly released a self—titled album.

The band is now made up of
five members, but this wasn’t
always the case.

Since their start, the Jayhawks
have had members quit and then
rejoin, and a few quit altogether.

The group has gained new
members for touring along the
way.

But what
