Students will have the opportunity onWednesday to speak with UK leaders at an openforum.
UK President Eli Capilouto, Vice Presidentfor Student Affairs Robert Mock and Dean ofStudents Victor Hazard will be at the forum,sponsored by UK Student Government.
“The bigidea is trans-parency,” saidBrad Bishop,senator at largeand vice chairof the Academ-ic and StudentAffairs Com-mittee for SG.
Last fallSG held a fo-rum with Capi-louto that was open to student leaders.
“We figured it would be better to take thisopportunity to open it up to every single stu-dent,” Bishop said. “I hope (students) get a betteridea of his vision and he gets a better idea of whatthe student body vision is as well.”
Bishop said the atmosphere will be “as com-fortable of a setting as possible so people don’tfeel nervous to ask any questions.”
The forum will be held from 7:30 to 9 p.m.in Memorial Hall.

Every year the university hosts a memberof the journalism community to reach out tostudents about the issues concerning today’smedia.
Since 1977, the Joe Creason Lecture Se-ries has attracted students, faculty and thegeneral public with its prestigious speakersand pertinent context.
The Creason Lecture, put on by theSchool of Journalism and Telecommunica-tions in conjunction with the KentuckyJournalism Hall of Fame, is meant to honorthe advancements in journalism.
On Wednesday, April 11, John Harwood,a veteran in the journalist field and ChiefWashington Correspondent for CNBC, willdeliver the lecture. He has also worked at
The New York Times and The Wall StreetJournal.
Harwood, a Louisville native, is return-ing to his Kentucky roots to talk about a spe-cific issue in the journalism community andthe media’s role in today’s society.
Harwood has made a name for himselfthrough his coverage of multiple elections andhis weekly column in The New York Times,“The Caucus.” He has also appeared regularlyon NBC’s “Meet the Press” and “WashingtonWeek,” a public affairs program on PBS.
“After we honor six journalists for theiroutstanding careers, we hear from a leadingnational journalist about the issues in ourcraft,” said Al Cross, director of the Institutefor Rural Journalism and Community Issues,about the event. “Because that craft is an es-sential element to democracy, the lecture is agreat opportunity for the campus community
and the wider public to consider those issuesand interact with the visitor.”
As a member of the journalism worldhimself, Cross said he is excited for the uni-versity to hear from such a prominent figure.
“John Harwood is one of the leadingjournalists in Washington and we are verypleased to welcome him back to his nativestate as the Creason lecturer,” Cross said.

The Board of Trustees ap-proved a ground lease agree-ment Tuesday, allowing a pri-vate company to build andmaintain a 600-bed, $26 mil-lion residence hall on HagginField.
In a unanimous vote, thetrustees approved the first
phase of the agreement withEducation Realty Trust, a pri-vate firm from Memphis,Tenn.
UK will enter a 50-yearcontract with EdR, with thepossibility to extend the con-tract to 60 or 75 years, saidAngie Martin, UK’s treasurerand vice president of finance.There is also an option to ter-minate the contract.
UK Residence Life willmanage the new residencehall, but EdR will pay a Resi-dence Life Fee of $639 perbed each academic year forResLife programming.
Martin said the universityhas “been on a very fast time-line.”
The university hopes tosign the ground lease agree-ment in March, she said, and
will then start working onagreements for the future ofall of UK’s housing stock.
Martin said 700 studentsare turned away each year be-cause of a lack of space.
The Haggin Field dormwill open in August 2013,with construction beginningin April 2012, and will most-ly house honors students, aswell as have high-tech class-rooms and office space.
“It’s so much more thanthe residence halls,” Micah
Fielden, student body presi-dent and trustee, said.
Residence halls often in-clude living-learning commu-nities and classroom space.
“There is a lot more thatgoes into residence halls thanjust beds,” he said.
EdR came with 100 per-cent equity, meaning no debt,and Martin said the universityneeded money and needed itquickly.
“We have a lot of capitalneeds on this campus,” she
said. “We need to preserve asmuch debt capacity as wecan for those academic facil-ities.”
Fielden said the newagreement will change stu-dent housing quickly.
“I’m really happy,” Field-en said. “I think this has beenthe quickest way we can seenew and improved residencehalls on campus.”

BALTIMORE — The Allman Brothers andthe Flaming Lips will headline this year’s AllGood Festival at its new location in Colum-bus, Ohio, Maryland-based Walther Produc-tions said Monday.
The jam band festival moved from itslongtime West Virginia location in Novemberafter a fatal accident at last year’s event left ayoung woman dead, resulting in three wrong-ful-death lawsuits.
Coincidentally, a U.S. District judge saidMonday that all three lawsuits will be tried to-gether at a trial that has been tentatively set forAug. 19.
All Good’s 15th edition ended in tragedywhen a truck careened into a camp of tentswhere attendees slept, killing a South Caroli-na woman, Nicole Faris Miller. Her friendsYen Ton and Elizabeth Rose Doran were in-jured.
In three separate lawsuits filed in Septem-ber and October, Ton, Doran, and Kim S.Miller, Nicole’s father, accused Walther; hiscompany; Marvin’s Mountaintop and severalof the festival’s vendors, including parking
and security operators, of “wanton, reckless,grossly negligent” acts.
In November, Walther Productions movedto dismiss the lawsuits in U.S. District Courtin Clarksburg, W.Va. It also filed a cross-claimagainst the festival’s security company, EventStaffing Inc., charging the independent con-tractor with negligence.
When it announced All Good would moveto Ohio, Walther Productions did not mentionthe lawsuits, saying only the festival groundsat Marvin’s Mountaintops, had created “chal-lenges and frustrations” for fans and thegrounds’ neighbors.
This year’s festival will be held at legendvalley Concert Venue & Campground fromJuly 19 to July 22, which provides the festivalwith “better roads and faster processing,” ac-cording to a press release.
The full line-up includes Phil Lesh &Friends, G. Love & Special Sauce, and Papa-dosio, in addition to 15 other bands. Morethan 20 more artists are expected to be addedover the coming months.

For the 2013-14 academicyear, student resident rentwill not exceed $3,490 perbed per semester for the Hag-gin Field residence hall, ac-cording to the agreement.
Until 2017, the studentresident rent can increase upto 3 percent per academicyear.
Trustee Bill Britton point-ed out that by the fall of2016, the residence hall on
Haggin Field could be lessexpensive than other premi-um UK housing.
“The actual cost to thestudent for that facility couldbe less than what our olderdorms are now … for quitean increased amount ofspace,” Britton said.
Vice President of Facili-ties Bob Wiseman said theHaggin Field dorm will be aLEED certified building. Healso said it will use geother-mal energy.
Fielden said he is excitedPresident Eli Capilouto is soconcerned with the under-graduate experience.
“For those of us now thatare going to be gone, we’ll
still see the value in improv-ing our campus because itwill increase the values of ourdegrees,” Fielden said.

icans, especially Malcolm X,have had.
Malcolm X, an advocateof civil rights, left no pub-lished writings besides his au-tobiography.
The exhibit excitedMeredith Howard, a historysophomore.
“When studying Mal-colm X in class, we don’tever see a personal side tohim, we only study formalspeeches and writings,” shesaid.
He expressed his beliefsalmost entirely through
speeches and interviews,which make this exhibit sovaluable because of the dif-ferent view it presents,Howard said.
The exhibit will presentmore than 200 artifacts on thelife and legacy of Malcolm Xthrough original letters, hand-bills, photographs, newspa-pers, magazines, figurinesand other memorabilia.
“The exhibit provides avisual and provides a remem-brance for the people likeMalcolm X who gave us whatwe have now,” Edmund AllenJr., a biology sophomore,said.
The exhibition will dis-play the artifacts in chrono-
logical order, beginning withobjects from slavery and fin-ishing with Malcolm X’s im-pact on the leading hip-hopartists in America today.
“This event is a greatway to celebrate Black His-tory Month at the UK,” Allensaid.
The UK Black StudentUnion and Diversity Educa-tion sponsor the free event.
The exhibit will be shownon Thursday from 11 a.m. to6 p.m. in the Student Centerroom 206.
“This is a rare opportunityto discover interesting factsand stories about Americanhistory in a fun and excitingway,” Allen said.

This letter is a response to a Feb.20 column titled “UK’s ‘dry’ campusunfair, ineffective.”
While I understand Mr. Blacker-by’s intent, I would like to point out afew concerns with his points of argu-ment.
The information cited to defendthe article was from a publication writ-ten in 2009 with data collected in 2007from a sample of 170 students. For aninstitution with nearly 5,000 residents,it is highly debatable whether this is arepresentative sample size.
Many trends and policies havechanged since that research was pub-lished.
In addition, the intent of theresearch was to discuss the issues sur-rounding underage drinking and whatwe as a campus can do to decrease itand associated problems. Nowhere inthe research did it state establishing a“wet” policy for our campus as a plau-sible and effective solution.
The article actually suggests ideassuch as increasing awareness of theissue through Residence Life educa-tion — something UK has done sincethe research was gathered.
As it currently stands, more than92 percent of our residential studentpopulation is younger than 21 years ofage, including undergraduate studentsinvolved in Residence Life. Even ifour policy changed to a “wet” campus,this population would still not beallowed to drink on campus. Of thosewho are found in violation of our alco-
hol policy over the past three years, 97percent are younger than 21 years ofage. These statistics indicate our cur-rent policy does not place undue griev-ance upon those who are of legal age.
The article also made reference tothe current alcohol policy and subse-quent institutional response. Althoughthe C.H.O.I.C.E.S. program was func-tioning when the research was per-formed, that specific program has notbeen around since the 2009-10 aca-demic year.
We evaluated the program andfound its format was not effective inhelping change drinking patterns. Ouroffice has since changed the educa-tional responses to vary depending onthe particular incident rather than a“one-size-fits-all” approach.
If anyone is interested in learningthe true impact of “dry” or “wet” cam-pus policies, a handful of research arti-cles exist in peer-reviewed journals,though they are not particular to UK. Ialso suggest that anyone interested insigning the petition mentioned in theprevious article actually take the timeto read the cited research in its entire-ty.
If you are truly interested inchanging policy, research some “wet”institutions of comparable size anddemographics to see what they do,how policy is enforced and monitoredand the level of increase in crime andviolations (if any).
As an institution of higher educa-tion, I believe there is nothing wrongwith dialogue on policy creation, aspolicies tend to be more dynamic thanstatic. It would be in everyone’s bestinterest to know as much as they can
with accurate data to make aninformed decision.
Since the information for the pre-vious piece was gathered in 2007, theOffice of Substance Education &Responsibility has created a variety ofnew programs geared to making ourcampus safer and healthier.
We have made changes to the edu-cational response for policy violatorsover the past three years (Coach,Prime and Drug Education class). Theresult from the new format has seen anincrease in more responsible drinkingand drug use behaviors.
The institution also mandates thecompletion of AlcoholEdu for all new,non-transfer students who are youngerthan 21 years of age. Though theeffectiveness for this program may bedebatable, it has allowed us to obtainmore accurate information on behav-iors and trends for our students as awhole so we can better address needs.
Our peer education group, the Stu-dent Wellness Ambassadors, provideeducation on alcohol, drugs and men-tal wellness as many of these issuesare interrelated. These programs areprovided to organizations, residencehalls, as well as 8th- through 12th-graders in the community through thepublic and private schools.

UK’s alcohol policy: Get the factsBy Drew M. Smith
Tuesday was the first Board of Trustees meeting for newfaculty trustee John Wilson.
Wilson, of UK’s behavioral science department, wasted notime in diving into discussion, asking questions about pro-posed changes to the university’s governing regulations.
Irina Voro, the other faculty trustee, backed Wilson, sayingas faculty trustees they wanted to be more involved in the dis-cussions of the proposed changes, which will now be dis-cussed again in March.
Sheila Brothers, the staff representative to the Board, alsorepresented her constituents well.
When the proposal to approve a ground lease agreementfor privatized housing was discussed, Brothers asked about theUK staff members who currently work in the residence halls.
She said she wanted to make sure all current staff will bereassigned to different locations on campus. Bob Wiseman,vice president of facilities, said all existing employees will seeno changes in employment.
It is refreshing to see trustees, especially Wilson as a newmember, take the initiative to ask a question or make a state-ment that leads to more discussion before a decision is made.
From our first impression, it looks like Wilson will be agood replacement for outspoken former faculty trustee JoePeek.

A full house will occupythe Guignol Theatre Thursdayfor the opening of “August:Osage County.”
“August” is the third playof UK Theatre’s season, writ-ten by Tracy Letts.
“This is a really contem-porary look at a traditionalAmerican family,” MichaelSheehy, a theatre sophomoreplaying the character Bill, said.“It looks at dark issues in acomedic way.”
Along with the student-ac-tors, alumni of the theater de-partment and Russell Hender-son, a theater professor, are ac-tors as well.
Because the play featuresthree generations of a family,the first generation is only fit-ting to be played by alumni.
Vic Chaney, director of“August,” said, “I wanted thestudents to be exposed to whatthe alums have to offer as ex-perience. They need to getused to it.”
Alumni Brad Wills andTheresa Willis serve as exam-ples and mentors for the stu-dents to understand the theaterindustry.
“I don’t want them leavingschool blind to how the indus-try operates,” Chaney said.
Chaney said the set is real-istic, with real food, and theactors will be breaking propson stage.
“The audience will be ableto smell the food on the table,”Chaney said.
The stage will be set inthrust, meaning the audiencewill be sitting on the stage, inthe very living room of thefamily.
The actors have beenworking on the play sevendays a week for the pastmonth and six days a weeksince the beginning of January,said Elizabeth Greenfield, anarts administration senior.
“The re-sponse ofthe audiencewill be un-precedent-ed,” Green-field said.“ T h e r e ’ snowhere tohide for boththe actorsand the audi-ence.”
Sheehyfinds that thedifficult part for him was try-ing to put himself in the shoesof his character.
“The hardest part is learn-
ing the mindset of someonewho is significantly olderthan I,” Sheehy said, “who ishaving trouble with his wifeand has a 14-year-old daugh-ter.”
Chaney said he doesn’t seethe students asstudents, butas actors.
“To me, Isee the alums,professor andstudents as onein the same,”Chaney said.“They are allactors in myeyes.”
On theother hand,
Sheehy found itdifficult at first to adjust tohis professor being on stageacting next to him, but he hasfound it insightful.
“This play establishes theUK theatre department as astrong artistic force on cam-
pus,” Sheehy said. “It alsoserves to enhance UK as astrong, artistic campus.”

Most starting rotationsyou see in baseball will havea balanced distribution ofright- and left-handed pitch-ers. This gives a team the va-riety to throw either one whenfacing an opposing lineupheavy with hitters from eitherside of the plate.
UK head coach GaryHenderson isn’t providedwith such a luxury this sea-son.
His weekend rotation ofTaylor Rogers, Jerad Grundyand Corey Littrell are allleft-handers.
But when asked, Hender-son didn’t seem too con-cerned about it before theseason started.
“It’s a question you getjust because it is a littleunique,” Henderson said.“With the way our ballpark
sits, it’s an absolute benefit.Now, if they don’t throwstrike one and can’t commandthe outer half then there’s novalue. But if they can dothose things, they are a realvalue.”
So far, he has every rea-son to feel good about the sit-uation.
After returning fromSpartanburg, S.C., with a 3-0record, the weekend rotationdominated. In wins over Wof-ford, Eastern Michigan andUniversity of South CarolinaUpstate, UK gave up oneearned run in 18.2 innings —an ERA of 0.48.
The competition wasn’tnecessarily on par with theSEC teams the Cats will facein the coming months.
But it could prove to be apoint of confidence going for-ward.
“There were a lot ofdoubts as to how three left-
handers would fare,” Rogerssaid. “But we all are differentin our own little ways.”
The trio will have its firstreal test this weekend whenBuffalo comes to Lexingtonfor a three-game series.
“I’m primarily interestedin their ability to throwstrikes low in the strike zonewith multiple pitches,” Hen-derson said. “If they can dothat, then we can build off ofsomething.”
