UK opens long-awaited black cultural center

By BRAD COOPER
Assistant News Editor

Yesterday UK took a “giant leap
forward" in integrating different
cultures on campus.

That leap came at a time when
the country was honoring the dream
of slain civd rights leader Martin
Luther King Jr

About 200 students, faculty and ad-
ministrators, both black and white.
celebrated the dedication and open-
ing of the long-awaited Martin Lu-
ther King Jr. (‘ultural Center.

And a child led them.

Four-yearold Saida Grundy. who
was dressed in a purple and white
west African dress, cut the red,
green and black ribbons that
stretched across the center‘s door.

(irundy is the daughter of Chester
(irundy. director of L'K‘s minority
student affairs office.

Before the ribbons were cut and
the doors opened. Saida Grundy,
along with her 9-year-old sister, Tu-
lani. and her mother. Ann. conse»
crated the center with a traditional
west African ceremony.

Standing before the center on the
first floor of the Student Center. the
tirundys called upon the names of
deceased black leaders “that had a
high standard of living who
would have been proud of the cen-

c!oth in front of the door. Ann (irun-
dy dipped her hands iii a brass west
African bowl held by Tulani and
then sprinkled water on the cloth.

“We have come this day, this very
important moment. to a holy place
inside this door." Ann Grundy said.
"We bring ourselves and seek our-
selves.

”We ask our ancestors . . . on this

the narrow confines in front of the
center.

Before the doors of 124 Student
(‘enter were opened. an hour-long
service was held at the Student Cen»
ter’l‘heater.

Chester Grundy said the $50,000
cultural center takes a large stride
toward bridging the gap between
different cultures at the University.

“1 think today we created a little
bit of home in this step.” Grundy
said. “I think today the University
of Kentucky is taking a giant leap
forward . "

Featured speaker Frank llale.
vice provost for minority affairs at
Ohio State University. agreed but
said that UK's effort to bring differ-
ent cultures together was a only a
small step toward fulfilling King‘s
dream of equality.

llale warned listeners in the filled
theater that the cultural center
could become an island unto itself.

"A black cultural center is not an
island of segregation." he said.
"The purpose of a black cultural
center is to have a family room on
campus."

Hale said there was a flurry of ac-
tivity to heal racial relations imme—
diately after King's assassination in
Memphis. Tenn. in April of 1968.

However. llale said. 1976 marked
the advent of a new era. The era of
disintegration.

“Every year since that. there has
been a decline in the presence of the
black person on the college and uni-
versity campuses." Hale said.

"The national leadership is

ing tax exempt status for institu7

Although there is a "large num»

school and going to college. the tim-

Committee discusses alcohol policy

My J \Y Bl. \N'I'ON
News Editor

Joseph Burch. acting vice chan~
cellor for student affairs. considers
the problem in dealing with alcohol
at [K a paradox.

The paradox. Burch said at a
meeting of the alcohol committee
yesterday. is that the L'niversity
must make rules and policies that
affect students who are of legal age
to drink alcohol and students who
aren't

The alcohol committee was
formed last semester to make rec-
ommendations about the alcohol sit-
itatioii on campus. Those recommen-
dations will go to Art Gallaher.
chancellor for the Lexington cam-
pus. in March.

Yesterday's meeting was designed
to allow committee members to dis-
cuss t'K‘s current rules and policies
concerning alcohol use,

t'ommittee Chairman Mike Nich-
ols. director of the (‘ounseling and
Testing t‘enter. said a report of the
committee meeting will be available
for the committee's review at the

next meeting at 4 pm. Jan. 26 in the
Patterson Office Tower.

Burch handed out to committee
members three documents. along
with the Student Rights And Respon-
sibilities Handbook. that deal with
alcohol consumption on campus.

Burch said the basic alcohol policy
at L'K is simply compliance with the
state law.

Specifically. though. there is to be
no possession or consumption of al—
cohol in the dormitories. he said.

Many students. however. have
complained that the University alco-
hol policy is unfair. particularly to
those students living in campus
housing who are of legal drinking
age.

Burch said about 10 percent of the
student population living on campus
is 21 years old or older.

As far as the dormitories are con»
cerned. SGA Senator at Large David
Botkins said there has been miscom-
munication between the administra-
tion and student body about alcohol
consumption.

"Prior to this year. if you had at-
coholic beverages in an opaque coir
tainer." it was all right, the Student

RFL sets tentative date
for matching donations

in l) \\ u,\ssi:it'i'
si-iiio! \tatt \\ritcr

Directors of Radio
t‘lt‘t' l.c\ington last night set a
\lttl't'll 2 deadline for raising the
813.000 needed to match the dona»
lions made by the offices of Lexing-
ion Mayor Scotty Baesler and UK
In csidcnl this A. Singletary.

The president's office and the city
rigreei‘. to each donate $7.500 a year
for the next three years to help off-
set operating costs of the station.
Tl.e donations were made with the
stipulation that RFL match the
amount

While no specific deadlines have
been set by Baesler or the prese
dent's office for matching the funds,
ltoaid t‘iiairman Kenny Aringlon
said time is growing short.

“If we are going to reach our goal
of the fall tthe tentative date of op-
eriition proyccted last night). we
have to have the money by March
‘2." Arington said

Jack Blanton. vice chancellor for
administration. said the administra-
'Itill plans to set a deadline for RFL
to fulfill the matching agreement.

i la ’.o.ti'il oi

lte said March 2 would be an “ac-
ceptablc date." but also said in ef-
tcct that the main consideration is
that the money be raised before the

station begins actual construction of
its t.icilitics.

‘t'onsti'uction has to be done.
tThe .idiiiinistrationi really doesn‘t
want construction to be done without
a commitment that the radio station
will (actually go on the airt.” Blan-
ton said.

One avenue the board discussed
for raising the money is to go
through the Student Government As»
sociation SGA PreSIdent Donna
tireeiiwell said she will introduce a
funding bill to the SGA senate.
which would have a ceiling of $7.500.

She said. however. that RFL
should take the initiative in raismg
the money and only use SGA as a
last resort.

“1 think you tRFLi have to take
the initiative . . . to prove your cred-
ibility.“she said.

Arington and RFL President Mark
Beaty said they will continue to
work with the Student Development
(‘ouncil as a possible means of rats-
ing funds.

Beaty also said underwriting from
local businesses. in exchange for
promotional support. could be a
good source of initial funding.

“Based on initial contact with peo-

made to end t ntusion over the
"language" of the policy

“L'pon being confrontivl with tthe
misinterpretation i. l certainly
wasn't going to go along with their
misinterpretat ion." he said.

Another complaint of students has
been what they see as inconsistency
iii the I’niversity‘s alcohol policy.
specifically concerning enforcement
in the dormitories as opposed to en
forcenient in the fraternities.

Burch agreed with the assess»
ment. saying that for years that
complaint has been registered

Burch said that tip until the mid-
dle of the 1960s. there was no drink-
ing in the fraternities

But at that time. it was decided
that the property where fraternity
houses are would be leased and that
the housing corporations would be
responsible for adm‘i'tustering regu-
lations.

Blanlon said an RFL contract with
an underwriter would meet the
terms of the matching agreement

The board also set up an executive
committee last night to start seeking
applications for the positions of gene

of that number is making it through.

The reason? Universities do not
encourage integration between
blacks atid whites. llale said. This is
why. according to Halo. a cultural
center is needed ~ not only at UK.
but elsewhere as well.

Hale said there are residence
halls. women's services. fraternities

“we don‘t have very effective super

Burch and the rest of the commit»

one of the major problems with the

the policy.

That policy inconsistency. Burch

Students and faculty who wanted

selfdestructive nature of his early
days than for the music he was pro-
ducing at the time,

Pop took his name from a college
revnewer who called him Iggy ()ster-
berg «presumably because of his
connection with an earlier band, the
Iguanas: instead of his real name,
James Osterberg Jr. “Iggy“ stayed
and “()sterberg" went.

Pop introduced rock 'n‘ roll to the
extravagant world of the perfor-
mance artist, cutting himself with
broken beer bottles and flinging
himself into audiences armed with
lit cigarettes. Such antics made Iggy
Pop. And those who analyzed the
scene at the time considered it only
a matter of time before they broke
him.

Between the years of ‘73-‘76, Pop
had left the Stooges and left behind
a sordid-yetdistinguished era that
heard the recording of timepiece
songs such as “I Wanna Be Your
Dog" in exchange for a life of drugs
and groupies and no record deal

Enter David Bowie Bowie began
touring with Pop and produced his
next two albums. In return, Pop
wrote several songs for Bow'ie‘s up-
coming albums. one of them being

some sort oi a mainstream niche,
recording songs for the “Repo Man”
soundtrack and making a cameo ap-

Now Iggy Pop is married and. as
he told Laura Robinson of Interview
magazme, is fervently trying to
leave behind his destructive image.
the drug scene. the casual sex.

His new album. Blah-BIah-Bluh is
vaguely representative of this
change. and you can almost hear the
punks and posers screaming "sell~
out" at the onset. But don‘t be
fooled. This still isn't an album you

give any indication, primarily content with her

roll in the family scheme and secondarily

concerned with her position as one of

America’s leading singer/songwriters.
_

rhythms and lead singer, Chrissie
Hynde‘s commanding vocals.

Hynde. originally from Akron.
Ohio, formed the Pretenders after
kicking around Britain for several
years, playing in several bands for
brief stints. She was rejected as a
guitarist by several bands (one of
which became the Damned) before
forming her own four-piece band.

She sought the help of several gui-
tarists, including Mick Jones who
turned Hynde down in favor of join-
ing another upstart band, the Clash.

In spite of such setbacks, Hynde
recruited Nick Lowe to produce the
Pretenders‘ first album. The album
was made up of songs written by
Hynde with the exception of “Stop
Your Sobbing," which Ray Davies of
the Kinks wrote and which Lowe
chose as the band's first single.

Four more singles followed, in-
cluding “Brass in Pocket,“ which
soared up the US. charts and hit
No. i in the United Kingdom.

Between that time and '82, when
the Pretenders recorded their fourth
album. Learning to Crawl, the
band’s membership saw a tragic
Change. Bassist Pete Famdon died
of a drug overdose and James Hon—
eyman-Scott quit the band, later to
die of a heart attack. Only drummer
Martin Chambers and Hynde re-
mained as original members.

As the title indicates, Learning to
Crawl marked a new beginning for
the band, with the single “Back on

the Chain Gang“ paying homage to
Farndon and soul artist Sam Cooke.

Four years later. the Pretenders
are back on the charts with their
fifth album, Get Close. From the
lineup that recorded Learning to
Crawl, only Hynde and guitarist
Robbie McIntosh remain — Hynde
being the only original member of
the band.

As a result, Get Close incorporates
a decisive rhythm section to provide
a driving rhythm and blues sound
that veers from the new wave, Brit-
ish flavor of the previous records.

Yet despite all the changes.
Hynde‘s sneering approach to the
music industry and her position
therein doesn’t seem to have
changed much. She is still as vocal
as ever concerning topics such as
the excessive amount of money paid
by sponsors to rock artists and the
killing of animals for sport or con-
sumption.

As the mother of two children and
the wife of Simple Minds leadman.
Jim Kerr. Hynde seems, if recent in—
terviews give any indication, pri-
marily content with her roll in the
family scheme and secondarily con-
cerned with her position as one of
America's leading singer/song-
writers.

The Pretenders/Iggy Pop concert
will begin at 8 p.m. Thursday. Tick»
ets are $10 and $12.50. They are
