The ‘805

Ever wonder

why?

Born in l980. I am a
product of the '80s
Saturday morning
cartoon shows. I
remember almost all
the cool, corny and
simply stupid TV
programs, no matter
how hard I try to

forget. Back then, I sat

in front of the tube
and accepted
whatever nonsense
the networks dished

out. Today, however, I

try to question some

of the inconsistencies

and confusing topics
that surrounded my
favorite cartoons.
Here are some of the

issues that didn't make

sense.

What was so mysterious
about Scooby Doo's
Mystery Machine?

Did the Smurfs really

replace all their verbs
and adjectives with the

word “smurf" or was
it just the producer's
way of bleeping out
curse words?

0n "G. I. Joe," why did
the good guys use
guns with red beams
and the bad guys use

guns with blue beams?

Most of their guns
looked the same to
me.

Were the Wuzzles all
genetic mishaps, or

were they evolutionary

steps in the right
direction? How did
crossing a lion and a

bumblebee ensure the

creature's survival?

Were Mr. T's necklaces a

fashion statement, or

was he weight
training?

Why did the Doozers on
"Fraggle Rock" keep
working if they knew

WEDNESDAYKENTUCKY

Find out the
story of the
traveling
evangelist l to

 

 

 

that the Fraggles were
just going to eat their
structures? It seems
like a raw deal to me.

What was it exactly that
"You Can't do that on
Television" couldn't do
on television?

Why was 'five' always the
magic number for
super hero groups like
Voltron?

What was the relationship
like between the Get-
Along Gang off
camera? I'm sure
their success made
their egos unpleasant.

With a name like “Pee-
Wee's Playhouse," how
did we not foresee
what was to come for
Paul Reubens?

When the humans were
riding inside the

Transformers as cars,

why didn't they get
crushed when they
transformed into
robots?

If He-Man and She-Ra
were brother and
sister, why weren't
their names similar,
like lie-Ra or She-
Woman?

Parking fines to increase by July 1

Shell out the cash: Tickets will increase $5,
grade period will also increase to 10 days

By Nick Tomecek

STAFF WRITER

Starting July 1 students will
have to shell out more cash for
parking tickets that are not paid
within the new IOday grace period.

Right now. students in viola-
tion of parking without a permit
will pay $10 and will have seven
days to pay the ticket or the fine
will increase to $15. Under the new
plan. the $10 ticket will double to
$20 afier 10 days.

Many students are upset by the
new plan.

“I think it's pretty ridiculous. A
lot of times it is just going over to
the parking office. Like other stu»
dents I forget.“ said Sabrina Coyle.

an elementary education senior.

But Don Thornton, the director
of Parking and Transportation Ser-
vices. says he is not sympathetic to
complaints by students because of
the impact violators have on people
who pay for permits.

“[Parking violations] impact
the students and employees that
have those permits." Thornton said.

In addition to the new grace pe-
riod. students will also pay $50 for
parking violations in fire lane and
handicap spaces. a fine doubling
from the current $25 fine.

The new plan was composed by
the Parking Transportation Com-
mittee. which is made up of faculty.
staff and students. The plan took six
months to prepare with much coop-

 

 

eration from the students in the
committee. Thornton said.

The new grace period and fine
will be effective for controlling per-
sistent violators. he said.

“increasing tines appears to be
a deterrent. Right now an individ-
ual can look at the cost of a pemiit
and can park in violation at least 15
times before it equals the cost of a
permit." Thornton said.

The fine for using a fake or
stolen permit decreased from the
cost of a new permit to a flat $100
fine. Pemiits cost $152 for the year.

Students will still be towed af-
ter six parking violations within a
year. but starting July 1 the im-
pounding fee will add $25 in addi
tion to the current $52 paid to re-
trieve a person's car after it has
been towed.

“We‘re trying to deter individu-
als from constantly violating the
rules." Thomton said.

Reaching a milestone.

That's how many students
see the completion of their under-
graduate studies.

Nineteen minority students
reached their milestone last
Thursday in the sixth annual
Rites of Passage ceremony.

UK faculty and staff across
campus came as elders to honor
the graduating students in com-
pleting their studies in the health
sciences.

When presented tokens and a
“Class of 2001" kente cloth stoll
by the Medical Center Chancellor
James W. Holsinger. Jr.. gradu
ates thanked those who helped
them through their studies. in-
cluding the Medical Center Mi.
nority Affairs office. The office
sponsored the ceremony.

"I would like to thank the Mi-
nority Affairs office. if not for
them. I would not have made it."
said Nardos Ghebrelul. a graduat-
ing dentistry student.

Graduating from the College
of Pharmacy. LuShawna Dulin
also thanked the Minority Affairs
office for the continuing support
it gives to students by writing a
senior moment in the program.

“Reach out to others and be
there for them as they in return
will be there for you," Dulin said.

“The minority affairs office
allows you to have that support
or shoulder you may need some
dav."

Dulin. from Louisville. will
have a doctorate in pharmacy
next month and is working on
her master's in public adminis-
tration.

“Knowing that every person
graduating from the college of

pharmacy in 2001 will have a doc-
tor of pharmacy degree, I wanted
to be able to have something that
would set me apart from every-
one else." Dulin said.

Some were thankful just to
make it to this point.

.lai Gilliam. a graduating
medical student. said many times
he thought he wasn't going to
make it through medical school
and thanked his mother for his
success.

“Thank you for raising two
black boys into men." he said of
his mother. who raised him and
his brother as a single parent.

Gilliam was chosen by his
peers in the Minority Affairs of-
fice as the 2001 Outstanding
Student.

He will head to Detroit after
graduating from the UK College
of Medicine.

Full house: Cards used to
reinforce safety issues

By Cara C. Hood
Samaria 7’

Look a little closer the next time you
see children in Lexington trading collec-
tor's cards. Instead of cute little Japanese
monsters. local kids might be carrying
cards of members of the Lexington- Fayette
Urban County Division of Police.

Patients from the UK Pediatrics Clinic
thanked Lexington police officers for the
trading cards they receive when they visit
the clinic by presenting them with a hand-
made poster Tuesday afternoon.

Several officers were on hand to accept
the poster and meet the children who adv
mire them.

Grace Maguire. an UK pediatrician.
learned about the police trading card pro—
gram. started hy the Citizen Police Acade.
my Alumni Association. and decided to
start giving the cards to patients at their
clinic visits. Maguire uses the cards as a
way to reinforce safety issues to children.

Cards are available with pictures of 67
of Lexington's officers. and many feature
officers who perform their duties in a
unique way such as Officer Gina Beth
Smith with her horse and Sgt. Alan Martin
with his K-9 dog. Max.

Each card has a short biography that
includes their training and hobbies and a
safety message from the officer on the back.

Officer Debbie Wagner directs the pro-
gram for the Citizen Police Academy Alum-
ni Association. Wagner said the trading

Taiwan to get U.S. arms package,

WASHINGTON President Bush is offering
Taiwan a panoply of military equipment. includ-

while deferring sales of the item Taiwan wants
most: high-tech l' S. destroyers equipped with
the Aegis combat radar system The sale of such
equipment to Taiwan. which China considers a
rebellious province. could have worsened US.-

between a US. spy plane and a (‘liinese jet that

The White House took pains to assuage Beijing's
concerns about the arms package. which was out-
lined to reporters Monday by several US. offi-
cials and lawmakers who had been briefed on the
decision. But the White House also made clear
that future sales to Taiwan of the statoofthe-art

Pioneering woman,
always the teacher

Striving and succeeding: Sociology professor's life filled with
education and wisdom; Today she passes her knowledge on to others

By Donia Sflalhg

Sufi WRIYER

For many. the road to success is long. hard
and filled with challenging obstacles. But
Doris Wilkinson doesn't feel her struggle was
that burdensome.

Wilkinson was the first black woman hired
as a full-time faculty member at UK. She was
one ofthe first to enroll in the "historic" fresh-
man class a few months after the Supreme
Court's 1954 decision allowing blacks to enroll
in universities.

Graduate students at UK were admitted af-
ter Lyman T. Johnson's suit.

“You have to use the word
‘historic' because it is impor-
tant." she said. She was also
the first to finish in that class
on the Dean's List and re-
ceived her degree in less than
four years.

It was one year after
Wilkinson and 18 other
African-American students en-
tered UK that Rosa Parks took
a vacant seat in the front of a
City bus in Montgomery. Ala..
and refused to give her seat to
a white man. She was arrested and African
Americans organized a two-year bus boycott.

“It was very surprising at that time [to fin-
ish on the Dean‘s List]." the sociology profes-
sor said.

“I found UK to have been an intriguing en
vironment. and it was challenging but not dif-
ficult." she said.

Even though Wilkinson attended a racially
segregated elementary and high school. she
felt she got a very good education. “The ironic
thing was that I learned fundamental literacy
skills and math skills." she said. “I came thor-
oughly prepared."

“1 went to the real Dunbar." she added.
“the teachers equipped us." When Wilkinson
attended the “real" Dunbar. she could not go to
the movie theaters in downtown Lexington or
shop in some of the department stores or eat in
any of the downtown restaurants.

While UK did not desegregate until the
mid-twentieth century. "surprisingly it was a
very pleasant environment. with nice students
that were always smiling to let you know that
you were welcome." Wilkinson said.

“It was a very positive. very comfortable
climate." she said.

Nearing the completion of her doctorate
from Case Western Reserve University in med
ical sociology. Wilkinson was soon hired as a

Wilkinson

full-time faculty member. “It was a very excit-
ing time and i had marvelous colleagues." she
said. She stayed at UK for twoand-a-half years.

It was her love for teaching. caring profes
sors and hard work that helped carve her way
to success.

“I think I played school with my parents as
a child. and l was always the teacher." Wilkirr
son said. She also worked extremely hard to
get where she is today. While studying for her
master's. she was hired to teach at Kent State
University. “I commuted from Cleveland (Case
Western Reserve) to Kent [to teach] and was
only a chapter ahead of the students because I
was a full'time student myself." she said.

She added. “dedicated teachers are so im-
portant for the learning process and student
growth. Chance as well as being a good student
brought me here and compelled me to become
a college professor."

“A university ought to be more than just a
series of courses but an enriched environment
for students to see art exhibits and to hear
quality lectures." she said. “Very little posi-
tive is known about African Americans and I
see it as a mission to reinforce the fact that
African Americans have been a highly produc
tive population in this country,"

Wilkinson is also interested in other areas
that she hopes to research. “I am interested in
studying university cultures. their values and
bureaucratic structures." she said.

She is also very interested in "the impact
of a university's history and its administrative
hierarchy on the intellectual life and its
mission,“

”I think that the university could benefit
from a more multicultural. multi-ethnic facul-
ty pool." she added. “I'm not sure what the in-
centives are for good. quality African-Ameri-
can faculty, regardless of gender or age. to re-
main. for example. in a College of Arts and Sci-
ences."

While Wilkinson is successful today. she,
still admits to encountering barriers. "There
are African-American faculty and students
who face continuing obstacles. even I faced
them." she said.

Still. her greatest achievement was that
she established the African-American Studies
and Research program and founded the Black
Women‘s Conference. "because I developed
them from nothing , creations that attracted
the interest of students and faculty." she said.

Wilkinson's plans for the future are as
busy as her present and past. She wants to
write more books and play classical music.

“I love the task of creating an idea."

I think I played school with my
parents as a child...”

Even though McKinney said she
feels UK provides adequate assis-
tanee to non-traditional students. she
said more should be done to make
l'K eonvenient for them.

"There should be a eentral loca-
tion for adult students to go front 8
ant. until 8 pm." MeKinney said. ”It
would be good for students who
work as well."

said it was not easy.

"learning to think like a student
again can be hard." Rohs said.
adding that regular students avoid
nontraditional students.

However. he does believe return-
ing to school has been a very positive
exixirienee so far.

"Readjusting to life as a eollege
student has been difficult." Rohs
said. “However the (‘hanee to better
yourself is Worth it."
