Randall Cobb goes proDrafted in the second round to theGreen Bay Packers 5

The wait is finally over.The UK Board of Trustees unanimously voted to select

University of Alabama at Birmingham Provost Eli Capi-louto as its preferred candidate to be UK’s 12th presidentSunday, ending the roughly six-month long search to re-place outgoing President Lee Todd.

Capilouto, 61, will be subject to student, faculty andstaff forums Monday before he is officially named presi-dent.

“We couldn’t be happier with this selection,” Board ofTrustees Chairman Britt Brockman said. “The University ofAlabama has made great strides nationally. They’ve taken avery hospital-oriented university and over the last decade,gone into make their undergraduate education as strong astheir hospital side. Eli Capilouto has been at the forefrontand has been responsible for most of, if not all, of thatgrowth.”

An Alabama native, Capilouto has held several posi-tions at UAB since joining the faculty in 1975. He was adean in its School of Public Health and a senior executiveadministrator before becoming provost in 2005.

During his tenure at UAB, he helped lead theadoption of a more transparent budgeting sys-tem and continued increases in research fund-ing for an institution that is one of the na-tion’s leading public medical and health sci-ences campuses.

Lee Todd wants you to knowthat the UK’s Top 20 mandate wasnot his idea.

That was actually former Gov.Paul Patton’s idea, when in 1997 hepresented to the General Assemblya broader plan to overhaul thestate’s higher education system.

But if it was Patton’s idea, thenit was Todd’s crusade. Nothing willaffect Todd’s legacy more thanUK’s ambitious Top 20 goal. Now,Todd knows he’s leaving the uni-versity with a legacy that has yet tobe determined or understood.

"I think (Top 20) will be a partof it for sure and I would hope thatthey focus on the strides that wemade in that direction, more sothan that we haven't been able tomake a lot of progress in the meas-ures because of the situations thatwe had,” Todd said.

“But it will certainly be some-thing that will be part of the legacy,and I'm fine with that. Becausewe're a lot better institution havingstrived to achieve that than wewould have been had we not hadthat.”

Even today, after nearly adecade helming the state's flagshipinstitution for higher learning, helooks more like a professor walkinghurriedly across campus on his wayto a 9:30 chemistry class than theface of a university.

In fact, earlier in life, he was anengineering professor at UK. Thenhe started two businesses of hisown, each of which went on to bewildly successful. But when hisalma mater came calling, he didn’thesitate. There was nothing hewould rather be doing than the jobof UK’s 11th president.

“I often say I've been fortunateenough to live out several dreams,”he said.

But Todd’s dream job wasn’talways a smooth ride. In his firstyear in office, he had to face theNCAA for recruiting violationscommitted by the football team be-fore his arrival. That was the mosttrying time for him. After, hepledged that the athletic departmentwould remain off probation duringhis time here — a promise he kept.

Todd would later face othertough roads. After the state legisla-ture funded the Top 20 businessplan in the early years of Todd’stenure, the recession hit the Com-monwealth hard. The plan called forfunding to escalate by $18 million ayear, but that increase didn’t come.

Osama bin Laden is seen in this screen grab from Al-Jazeera’s satellite channel a day before the secondanniversary of the September 11 attacks.

The tall, lean, rich man's son could havespent his life lounging about Saudi Arabia inluxury. Instead, Osama bin Laden chose to kill.

President Barack Obama announced fromthe White House late Sunday that bin Ladenhad been killed by a special operation in Pak-istan. His body is in the custody of U.S. offi-cials.

In the mind of the American public, binLaden was often seen as the person whose sin-ister creativity resulted in atrocities committedin the name of Islamic fanaticism. In truth, ex-perts said he served more as idol and motiva-tor to militant Muslims who were convincedthat America's support of Israel and its pres-ence in Saudi Arabia demanded bloodshed.

Bin Laden's charismatic ways, his fortuneand his ability to extract money from otherwealthy Islamic extremists gave sophisticationand firepower to a terrorism campaign thathad been lurching from one haphazard carbombing to the next.

Without bin Laden, the terrorist hijackersmay well have stayed home to wage theirprotests, never to imagine unleashing attacksin the United States.

“I was the most optimistic” that destruc-tion and death at the World Trade Centerwould be massive, bin Laden declared withcharacteristic hubris in a videotape.

Once seen by Washington as a freedomfighter, bin Laden launched the militant organ-ization a-Qaida during the Soviet Union's in-vasion of Afghanistan.

Over the years, al-Qaida provided trainingto as many as 11,000 men who passed throughits terrorist camps in Afghanistan. Al-Qaida isnow thought to have secret soldiers in fourdozen countries.

Federal authorities have implicated binLaden in some of the bloodiest crimes of thepast decade: The 1993 bombing of the WorldTrade Center. The 1998 bombings of U.S. em-bassies in Tanzania and Kenya. The 2000bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen. As forthe Sept. 11, 2001, atrocities, the terroristleader made clear his satisfaction, if not his re-sponsibility.

He was born Osama bin Muhammad binAwad bin Laden in Jiddah, Saudi Arabia. Mostaccounts placed his birth in 1957, although hesuggested different years to different inter-viewers.

The marriage ceremony of Britain’s PrinceWilliam and Catherine Middleton, now theDuke and Duchess of Cambridge, occurredprecisely as planned, defying leaden Londonskies and a cynical modern age to provide aglimpse of the solemn and brilliant pageantrynow mostly consigned to myth, and the inex-plicable faith we apparently still have in loveand marriage. And for the 15 minutes it tookfor the bride to enter the church and the twoattractive young people to exchange theirvows, it was lovely and touching, and whenthey departed in their open carriage with allthe queen's horses and all the queen's men inattendance, it was spectacular. But mostly thehoopla was a lesson in just how many hourssome of the highest-paid television journalistsin the world can spend discussing a bridaldress they have not seen while watching peo-ple they do not know mill about in Westmin-ster Abbey wearing in large hats. Far toomany. TV coverage of the royal wedding start-

ed at 2 a.m. EDT on Fox, which carried SkyNews for two hours before going live; the oth-er networks, including CNN and MSNBC,joined in around 3. This meant that the threehours before the ceremony actually started hadto be filled with something, and that some-thing turned out to be, not surprisingly, amash-up of Oscar coverage, the Tournamentof Roses Parade and sheer desperation. MattLauer offered up fast facts about WestminsterAbbey like Bob Eubanks rattling off the rose-petal and celery seed count of this next float,while BBC America, as if trying to prove it isnot stuffy no matter what you've heard, readfrom tweets and Facebook postings before in-troducing irrepressible historian SimonSchama. On ABC, Barbara Walters wonderedwhether or not "we" could call William's bridea princess even though she is technically aduchess, with Diane Sawyer agreeing that yes,of course "we" could.

upended what could havebeen a life of ease for theman in his early 20s. Galva-nized by what he saw as anepic battle between Muslimsand godless communists, hejoined the Afghan resistance.

His fighters were backedby American and Saudi taxdollars and advised by theU.S. Central IntelligenceAgency.

In the late 1980s, binLaden began to tell followersof a vision that had come tohim of a global jihad to bewaged by Muslims aroundthe world. So evolved al-Qai-da, Arabic for “the base.”

After the Soviet with-drawal from Afghanistan in1989, bin Laden returned toSaudi Arabia a hero, workingbriefly in the family business.

A sought-after speaker, healso released a quarter-mil-lion cassette tapes that out-lined a new enemy in hissights.

“When we buy Americangoods,” he said in one tape,“we are accomplices in themurder of Palestinians. ... TheUnited States uses that moneyto send a billion (dollars) ayear to Israel.”

His anti-Western rhetoricintensified in 1990, when

Saudi rulers allowed Ameri-can military personnel to usethe birthplace of Islam as astaging ground for the GulfWar. His radical reading ofQuran scripture called for vi-olence to eradicate from Is-lam all traces of secular cul-ture from pop music tomodern fashions to U.S. sol-diers.

Saudi Arabia expelled binLaden in 1991 because of hisanti-government activities.He wound up in Sudan,which expelled him in 1996under pressure from Ameri-can and Saudi diplomats.

Bin Laden personallyclaimed responsibility for thedeaths of 18 American sol-diers associated with the 1993downing of a U.S. Army heli-copter in Somalia. That sameyear, a truck bomb explodedin an underground garage ofthe World Trade Center.

Investigators linked binLaden to a loose organizationof Islamic extremists recruit-ing terrorists in the UnitedStates. What ostensibly hadbegun as a battle to liberateAfghanistan and Islam's threeholiest places Mecca, Medi-na and Jerusalem would soonbecome a holy war, a jihad,against the United States.

“Kill the Americans andplunder their money wherev-er they find it,” bin Ladenwrote in his 1998 fatwa, or

holy decree. He accused Americans of

waging war on God. The ter-rorist leader once comparedjihad against the Westernworld to the Afghans' suc-cessful stand against the So-viets.

Al-Qaida embedded cod-ed messages in innocuous-looking Web sites, storedbomb recipes on CD-ROMs.Bin Laden used couriers tocommunicate with his agentsface to face. His plottersrarely gave themselves away.U.S. intelligence officers foryears tried to track the terror-ists' activities from an officeknown as the bin LadenRoom, deep within CIA head-quarters.

He became the interna-tional poster boy of terrorwhen American authoritiesaccused the gaunt, 150-poundman in the 1998 bombings oftwo U.S. embassies in Africa,in which more than 250 per-sons died.

In 2000, many doubterswere silenced. A bomb-ladensuicide boat bobbing in aYemeni harbor blew a hole inthe USS Cole, killing 17American sailors. The plothad bin Laden's fingerprintsall over it, authorities said.

The Sept. 11, 2001, on-slaught on America camethree years after bin Ladenwarned of a “black day for

Americans ... when we do notdifferentiate between the mil-itary and civilians.”

With a $25 million boun-ty on his head and worldwidepressure on Islamic nations toroot him out, once-friendlyPakistan, Yemen and Iranturned their backs. OnlyAfghanistan's ruling Talibanoffered safe haven, as it hadsince 1996. Most of the Arabworld remained calm amidU.S. military strikes onAfghanistan. Even the mostradical Muslim groupsbacked off their cheerleadingfor bin Laden, figuring hisonce-heroic stature was crum-bling.

“The vast, vast majorityof Muslims in the MiddleEast find him to be a despica-ble character,” said WakeForest University religion de-partment chairman CharlesKimball, shortly after the ter-rorist strikes.

A dozen heavily armedand masked guards flankedthe fugitive when he appearedin public.

Whether martyrdom wasreally part of bin Laden'sgrand plan, as he had oftenclaimed, will remain a matterof debate. Many experts thinkhe fancied himself not a mar-tyr but the ultimate survivor,a slayer of superpowers and,Allah willing, the next rulerof Islam.

ate in Dentistry and Master’s of PublicHealth from UAB and a Doctorate inHealth Policy and Management from theHarvard University School of PublicHealth.

Brockman said the Board recognizedCapilouto as a prime candidate early inits Sunday afternoon deliberations.

“He stood hands and shouldersabove the other candidates,” Brockmansaid. “He brings the full complement ofwhat we’re looking for.”

Dreaming big

After being announced as the pre-ferred candidate, Capilouto stressed theimportance of UK setting its sights onbeing the best. He cited UAB’s growthfrom 15 to 85 city blocks, noting theschool would have done Birmingham adisservice had it not strived for excel-lence.

Capilouto said he wishes to bring theambition that worked in Birmingham toLexington. The president-select saidUK’s Top 20 plan attracted him to UKeven though he knew very little about it.

“Dreaming big dreams is important,”he said. “I don’t think youshould let those dreamsgo.”

Capilouto acknowl-edged changes in theeconomy and among stu-dents that may have al-tered the plan Todd insti-tuted in 2001. To makesure Todd’s plan stays itscourse, Capilouto said itwould take a university-wide effort, something hecoined “the power ofwe.”

“I look forward to hav-ing a dialogue with the faculty, studentsand staff and along with the trustees tolearn what is the best way to chart thatfuture and maintaining those hopes anddreams,” Capilouto said.

Capilouto’s belief in dreams stemsfrom his ancestry.

His grandfather was the first to cometo America from a small island off thecoast of Turkey. He pushed fruit cartsand worked in cafes to provide for hisfamily. Although the first generation ofAmerican Capiloutos did not all go tocollege, Capilouto said everyone withinhis generation did.

“It’s that kind of commitment that Ihave for every citizen of Kentucky,” hesaid. “They deserve to have that dreamanswered as well, just as it was in myfamily.”

The first visit

Capilouto and his wife, Mary Lynne,first came to Lexington on Tuesday.They did not inform UK of their visit.

Clad in tennis shoes, khaki pants anda baseball hat, Capilouto strolled aroundcampus and interacted with students. Hesaid he was elated by the positivity stu-dents and staff extolled.

“I learned that you’re the real thing,”he said. “I learned it from the staff I met,who talked about their deep dedicationto the students.”

Capilouto said he was particularlyimpressed by students at the StuckertCareer Center and the Singletary Centerfor the Arts.

“What’s important to me is the qual-ity of life you can offer,” he said. “Not

just to us, but whoever you want to at-tract here.”

After visiting campus, the Capiloutosate downtown, and “learned how muchpeople love this community and lovethis university.”

On Tuesday evening, the couplewent to the medical center and casually

visited with patients.“It reminds me of

what I feel when I walkaround our medical cen-ter campus (at UAB),”he said. “These wonder-ful academic health cen-ters afford opportunitiesfor the best of care forpeople from all walks oflife.”

The hospital visithelped the couple real-ize they wanted to bepart of UK, Capilouto

said.The Capiloutos’ unannounced visit

pleased University Senate Council ChairHollie Swanson.

“They were glowing about it,”Swanson said. “You can just get caughtup in that excitement. They love whatthey do so much.”

An academicwife

The new president isnot the only Capiloutoto ascend the academicladder.

His wife, Dr. MaryLynne Capilouto, re-ceived her dental degreewith honors and theDean’s Medal at theUniversity of AlabamaSchool of Dentistry atUAB in 1977. She com-pleted graduate trainingin a general practice res-idency at the Universityof Alabama Hospitals anda dental health residency and an oral dis-ease epidemiology fellowship at HarvardSchool of Dental Medicine.

In 1986, she received a master of sci-ence degree in epidemiology from Har-vard School of Public Health. She retiredfrom her service as dean of the Universi-ty of Alabama at Birmingham’s Schoolof Dentistry in 2005.

The couple have a daughter, Emily,23, who attended Boston University.

Despite her pedigree, Mary LynneCapilouto said she will leave Birming-ham to support her husband.

“Eli and I both share a passion foreducation,” Mary Lynne Capilouto said.“I’m here as a partner with Eli to join theUniversity of Kentucky. Right now, whatI’ll specifically be doing we’ll exploreand see.”

In her retirement, Mary Lynne Capi-louto has been involved in a variety ofcommunity and philanthropic efforts aswell as teaching part-time at UABSchool of Dentistry.

“I’ve been a very busy person in myretirement,” she said. “I’m excited aboutall the possibilities here. I’m excitedabout learning all about the communityand the university and whatever roles Ican fulfill in moving the university for-ward and supporting Eli.”

What’s next

On Monday, Eli Capilouto will facea gauntlet of forums.

Three one-hour forums have beenplanned so that the campus communitycan learn more about Capilouto. He willbriefly speak at each forum, but the bulkof the time will be spent answering ques-tions from the audience.

At 10 a.m., Capilouto will addressthe faculty in the Worsham Theater. At

11:30 a.m., he will ad-dress the staff at thesame location.

Brockman saidCapilouto will be whollyaccepted by the facultyand staff.

“We think he exem-plifies all the qualitieswe’re looking for in apresident,” he said. “Ibelieve he’ll have thefull confidence of ourfaculty and staff.”

At 2 p.m., Capiloutowill answer questionsfrom students in theWorsham Theater.

Outgoing StudentGovernment President

Ryan Smith believes the students willaccept Capilouto as well.

“He represents the utmost integrityand has a high level of experience,” hesaid. “He fits really well with the univer-sity and relates well with students. Hehas a track record of being student fo-cused.”

The forums will begin a process ofearning the UK community’s trust, Capi-louto said.

“We know that we will have to earnyour trust each and every day,” he said.“But we are committed to doing so.”

While UK has been awareof President Lee Todd’s resig-nation, the institutions fromwhich presidential candidateshailed were unaware the candi-date was considering leaving.

Eli Capilouto, the provostof the University of Alabama atBirmingham, was announcedas the final can-didate for UK’s12th presidentSunday after-noon, whichcame not onlyas a surprise toUK, but also toUAB.

Amy Kil-patrick, the ad-viser of UAB’sstudent news-paper TheKaleidoscope,said nobody knew about thepossibility of Capilouto leaving.

“I’m a little surprised, butthere has been a lot of changeshappening at UAB,” she said.

In the past year, UAB hasconsolidated some of itsschools and has been “reorga-nizing and realigning,” Kil-patrick said. “There has been

significant changes on cam-pus.”

Kilpatrick said students arebusy either taking finals orcleaning up from recent tornadodamage. She said this was thefirst news she had heard aboutCapilouto possibly leaving.

“Eli has been with us for along time, through ups anddowns … he’s always stood tallin leadership,” she said.

In an email tothe Kernel,UAB PresidentCarol Z. Garri-son, Ph.D.,commented onthe recent news.

“Eli has asuperb record atUAB as a facul-ty member,dean andprovost. I amconfident he

will do an out-standing job as president of theUniversity of Kentucky,” Garri-son said.

Kilpatrick reiterated Garri-son’s thoughts.

“He has been a wonderfulprovost. He has been a greatprovost to the campus and giv-en great service to the state,”Kilpatrick said.

AMY KILPATRICKThe Kaleidoscope adviser

Announcement surprised university,president has high hopes for UK

(Top 20),” Todd said.Tuition went up. Pay raises for staff and faculty were

stalled. Though Todd had planned on giving raises tostaff when the Top 20 plan was written, they were with-held when the additional state funding that was initiallyplanned on dried up. Ernie Yanarella, a political scienceprofessor who served as faculty representative on theBoard of Trustees from 2006-10, saw the challenge Toddfaced in Frankfort in those years.

“I think that (Todd) wished that Kentucky was likeNorth Carolina,” Yanarella said. “North Carolina, somedecades ago, made a basic decision to support higher ed-ucation as an important element of improving the qualityof life of North Carolinian citizens. … We don’t havethat in Kentucky.”

Patton feels differently. Now the president ofPikeville College, he doesn’t criticize the state for failingto provide funding during an “unprecedented” financialcrisis.

“Governors and legislators canset all kinds of goals, but some-body has to implement them.You have to have boots onthe ground,” Patton said.“Rather than ignore thatgoal, he has pursued it even inthe most difficult times … It wouldhave been easy for him to say ‘If you’renot going to give us the money to fund this plan, thenforget about it.’ That’s not the path he took.”

The state funding never returned to the levels thatwere called for in the business plan. Todd’s time, oncemarked with promise and a lofty goal, will now end withseveral questions unresolved.

“It will be seen as a tenure of great challenge, of se-rious effort to engage that, and a measure of tragedy,”Yanarella said.

When Todd enters a room, it never takes long for himto find a friend. He’s often the last person to leave a re-ception. No matter where he goes, he’s not a stranger.

“I think he comes across as a thinking social personin a sense that he seems to genuinely enjoy the lime-light,” Yanarella said. “He certainly has no trouble talk-ing with anyone one-on-one. He also is someone whocomes across as quite self-reflective.”

You probably don’t carewhy that kid in your econom-ics class thinks we shoulduse a monetary system basedon an edible standard or whyyour professor thinks deadweek means he should try tokill you, but you do want toknow what makes the personyou like tick.

Nagging works the same

way. You tell him that heshould eat something green(not including jelly beans,Starbursts or Skittles) and hetells you to get some sleep(and not get up at 5 a.m. towatch the Royal Wedding).

We pretend that our dif-ferences are greater so wehave something to nag about.We want to have somethingto nag about because wewant to show that we care.

Little kids chase eachother on the playground,lovers quarrel and the elderlyfuss over each other. But inthe end, we aren’t that differ-ent, and the differences wedo have are what we loveabout each other.

Do we really want towin? Is it worth so much thatwe’ll spare so little?

There’s a touch of pinkthat has filled her cheeks.She’s clinching her jaw just alittle tighter between words.And she uses her hands tograb whatever is near, givingher balance and support dur-ing the battle. It’s cute. Fun,even.

We’re not looking tochange the world. More thanlikely the entire fightstemmed from which“Rocky” movie was the best,when we very well know shenever liked any of them inthe first place.

It’s unfortunate that wenever take the time to stopbetween rounds and justsmile at the other. It doesn’thave to mean that every-thing’s been settled, that thewinner’s been decided. It justreminds how much we care.Even further, it shows howmuch we care that we care.

When UK all-Americanwide receiver Randall Cobbwas invited to attend the NFLDraft, members of the foot-ball team and fans throughoutthe Bluegrass were given atremendous bode of confi-dence that their golden boywould be selected in the firstround on the draft.

Then Thursday night’sfirst round in New York’s Ra-dio City Music Hall came andwent, and Cobb never heardhis name called from thegreen room.

While many were pan-icked, Cobb remained calmand optimistic about his draftprospects heading into Fridaynight’s second and thirdrounds. Cobb tweeted, “Iknow God is working so Ismile … Even though I beenhere for a while … I smile!#faithalone.”

When Cobb and his closefamily and friends, includingUK head football coach JokerPhillips, arrived back at thedraft Friday night, they againsat and waited in the greenroom to hear Cobb’s namecalled. As the second rounddrew to a close, Cobb stillhad not been selected, and heand those close to him did notknow how long they wouldhave to wait if he fell to thethird round.

That’s when the defend-ing Super Bowl championGreen Bay Packers went onthe clock with the 64th over-all pick, the final pick of thesecond round. The Packersselected Cobb with that pickand welcomed him as thenewest target on offensive fortheir Super Bowl MVP quar-terback Aaron Rodgers.

PHOTO BY SCOTT HANNIGAN | STAFFUK wide receiver Randall Cobb dives for a touchdown in the secondhalf of a game against Auburn at Commonwealth Stadium on Oct, 9,2010.

In a plan that would loan UK Athleticsmoney for new scoreboards and a sound sys-tem for Commonwealth Stadium, the universi-ty decided to drop the plan and it will insteadbe financed by private funds.

UK faculty and staff expressed concernabout the plan on Monday in a Faculty Coun-cil meeting that would loan the Athletics As-sociation $3.1 million for the $6.25 millionproject.

In the meeting they voted unanimouslyagainst the plan, asking the Board of Trusteesnot to approve the plan, according to an articlein the Lexington Herald-Leader.

The plan to fund the project was droppedon Thursday.

“The university still believed it offeredgood financial arrangement, but the Councilon Postsecondary Education expressed con-cern,” Jay Blanton, UK spokesman, said. “Aswe thought about it, there was a decisionmade to withdraw a proposal from the coun-cil.”

He said after much consideration they de-cided it was the best route, and the importantthing from the athletics perspective is to getthe work done.

Hollie Swanson, the chairwoman of thefaculty senate, said she was pleased with theuniversity’s decision to drop the plan.

“My take away from this is that we putsome pressure on (the university), that weweren’t happy about it that. We had concernsand that the administration responded,” shesaid.

Swanson said she has gotten responsesfrom faculty members being pleased that theadministration heard them.

“Our concern is that were giving our stu-

dents what they need to succeed as a universi-ty,” Swanson said.

Ernie Yanarella, a political science profes-sor, began a petition to faculty members thatopposed the loan.

“I’m pleased that UK athletics associationhas been willing to dig into money that its al-ready had for a very expensive score boardand sound system that many people havequestioned,” Yanarella said. “If they want topay for it, I’m happy for them to do so.”

The petition drive started last Tuesday, hesaid. It was brought to the Senate Council atthe meeting on Monday.

“It seems to me at that point that we need-ed to mobilize more widely across the wholecampus, among faculty who were similarlyirate about the proposed action,” he said.

He said the petition drive will not closeuntil Monday, and he hopes to have between200 and 300 signatures.

Yanarella said he is hoping to speak aboutit at the next senate meeting to talk about thesignificance of the petition and “its importancefor future protests that relate to financinghigher education,” he said.

“I think that they misgauged faculty atti-tudes about the proposed action,” Yanarellasaid.

According to the article, athletics will re-quest the Board of Trustees to approve $4.6million to be taken from a UK Athletics “qua-si-endowment” fund. Blanton said in the arti-cle that the fund has a balance of more than$14 million and comes from donors for “non-specific purposes.”

“After five years or so of the faculty andstaff stepping up to assist the university and itsbudgetary woes, it strikes many faculty, and Ibelieve, that its time for the sports programlikewise to step up and come to the aid of theUniversity of Kentucky,” Yanarella said.

UK loan to Athletics dropped after opposition

As the final days of LeeTodd’s presidency draw near,speculation over possiblechanges in administration as aresult of an incoming presi-dent is stirring on campus.

“It is premature to answerany of these questions prior tothe selection of a president,”Jay Blanton, UK spokesman,said in an email to the Kernel.“The new president will makedecisions regarding his or heradministrative team, as wasthe case with President Todd,and is the case at every majoruniversity.”

Bernie Vonderheide, theformer director of public rela-tions at UK, also warned thatchanges in administrationmay not happen overnight.

“Even after we know who(the new president) is, onlytime will tell how his or herpersonality and method of op-eration will fit the Universityof Kentucky and what his orher goals will be,” Vonderhei-de said.

Vonderheide, who hasserved beneath three differentUK presidents, said that ad-ministrative changes willprobably only occur after thenew president’s method andgoals are clear. He pointed to-ward former president DavidRoselle as an example of achief executive making nec-essary administrative changeswithin the university.

Roselle, UK’s ninth presi-dent, is well known for re-sponding to NCAA allega-tions of misconduct withinthe university’s basketball

program.“All of a sudden this

mathematician, who everyonewas calling weak or flimsy,rolls up and says we’re goingto clean up this program,”Vonderheide said.

Roselle’s willingness tomake changes in administra-tion after this scandal demon-strated how strong he was asa president, Vonderheide said.He suggested that UK’s newpresident should look atRoselle’s actions as a guidefor responding to crises in thefuture.

“You really don’t knowhow he or she will adjust tothe crises that plague univer-sities of this size,” Vonderhei-de said. “Eventually, if he orshe is a good president, thestaff will be rearranged ifneed be.”

monday 05.02.11 page 6kernelopinions

Years ago — or so the legend goes — an embit-tered Kernel editor came back to the office upset, hurt,insulted. A prominent campus figure had unfairly ha-rangued the young reporter for an offense that he didnot commit.

It was at that point, in the heat and sweat of ten-sion, that the young editor vowed revenge. From thosefeelings of hate, the Golden Forks were born. As a tes-tament to that young reporter we take it upon our-selves to strike back with venomous pleasure at thosewho have wronged the mighty “Fourth Estate.”

Editor’s note: OK, OK that’s a lie. We’re a bunchof sarcastic, immature college students who feel likeventing their frustrations at the end of the year. It’s un-fortunate that some of you must bear the brunt of that.But take comfort in the fact that in about a month thesummer Kernel begins, under the direction of Becca“Don’t call me Rebecca” Clemons, and then comes thefall with the woman you love to hate, Taylor Moak.You are encouraged to make the life of these two fineyoung women a living hell. Until then, if you’re upset,feel free to send in letters to the editor, as always.

But this is the last issue, so they won’t get printed.We’ll read them though.

Have a good summer.

This blurb was adapted from the April 28, 1989,edition of the Golden Forks Awards.

The Benedict Arnold Award goes toUK spokesman Jay Blanton.

In October, when UK officialsstopped eight Kernel advertising staffmembers from distributing Kernelnewspapers at Commonwealth Stadi-um, Blanton sided with the officials.

He said on behalf of UK that theKernel had the right to print, but notto distribute, at the stadium.

Keep in mind that Blanton was aKernel editor back in the day. What’s

up with that, Jay?

The I Love Mountains So Much,I’m Going to Sleep on the Floor to

Prove It Award goes to Wen-dell Berry, a renowned Kentucky au-thor and environmental activist.

Berry removed his papers fromUK archives after UK announcedplans to name the new men’s basket-ball dorm Wildcat Coal Lodge — coalbeing the operative word.

And he slept in the FrankfortCapitol for a whole weekend to show

his views. Basically, this old guy is a rebel.(Because of Berry’s adament attitude, the Kernel

Editorial Board considered calling this award theScrew You, UK Award, but thought themental imagery of an old guy sleeping on the floorwas much more epic.)

The Winningest Couple Award goes toMike Hartline + 1.

In his senior year,Hartline was supposedto be the starting quar-terback at UK’s BBVACompass Bowl game.

Then he and hischeerleader girlfriend,Ashley Carnes, decid-ed to get drunk andmake a scene, whichresulted in the pair’s

arrests. Don’t drink, kids. It’s not a good idea.

The Golden Tipple Award goes to theWildcat Coal Lodge.

(For all of you unfamiliar with the term, a tipple isthe tool used in coal mining.)

The lobby of the new Wildcat Coal Lodge is sup-posed to be a shrine to coal. And this relates toUK/basketball ... how?

It’s not like they give public tours at the WildcatLodge, so did whoever came up with this redecorationplan think that basketball players would suddenly be-come outspoken coal advocates?

The Worst Fashion Choice EverAward goes to Josh Harrellson.

Sure, he was the only senior onthe 2010-11 men’s basketball roster,but that doesn’t mean that he’s sud-denly a fashion guru.

Seriously, jorts were so 1980s.Is it really a compliment to be

nicknamed after a dated clothingitem?

The better question for you, Josh:Do you buy your jean shorts, or doyou cut up your own?

The Will You Stay or Will You Go?Award goes to Tolly Ho.

In the first edition of the Kernel this school year,Tolly Ho announced it was moving to the old HartsDrycleaning building on South Broadway.

In a March Kernel article, a Tolly Ho worker wasquoted as saying the restaurant was moving in April.

It’s May now. What’s the deal?

The Way Too Much PaperworkAward goes to UK Education Abroad.

“Supposedly” UK has a great Education Abroadprogram ... that is, if you can get through all the paper-work.

The amount of paperwork students must fill out forUK Education Abroad is more than even the RhodesScholar application.

Clearly, this is the reason tree huggers don’t studyabroad. (Yeah, that’s not really true ... )

The Kick Yo’ Face Award goes to all ofthe campus robberies last fall.

Thanks to the subsequent campus-area robberies,UK Alert blew up with notifications.

But nothing can beat kicking your assailant in theface, like the student who was attacked in K Lot did.

To expand on the advice of Antoine Dodson, inspi-ration for the viral “Bed Intruder Song” YouTubevideo: Hide yo kids, hide yo wife, hide yo husbands,too ... and find this karate-master student to protectyou.

The Double Duty Award goes to RyanSmith, UK student body president forthe 2009 — 2010 and 2010 — 2011school years. He also served on thePresidential Search Committee as thegraduate student representative.

What did he accomplish, you ask? Instituting a drunk bus program

for students, and picking a new presi-dent that no one knew anything aboutuntil the last week of the semester.

We should elect student presidentsto two terms more often.

The Behind Closed Doors Awardgoes to the UK Presidential Search Committee.

So President Lee Todd is stepping down in June,but his successor wasn’t announced until finals week.

What were the committee members trying to hide?Who?Where?When?Why?How?Inquiring minds want to know ...

The Taking Your Work Home WithYou Award goes to “the marijuana lady,” a.k.a.

Tracey Ellerbe, former UK Center onDrugs and Alcohol Research managerfor community-based services.

She got a little carried away withher work and was charged with takinghome her “research subject” for per-sonal use.

Along the same lines as theWinningest CoupleAward advice, don’t do drugs,

kids. Remember: Hugs, not drugs.

The Subject of the Weirdest UKAlert Message Ever Award goes to the W.T. Young Library foot stabber.

A creepy guy crawling under tables and puncturingpeople’s feet at the library was last seen wearing yel-low/orange shorts ... or was it shoes?

Thanks, foot stabber, for helping UK become thetopic of the weekly weird news segment at news ven-ues across the U.S.

You might have gotten away for now (near thevending machines, of all places — which begs thequestion, are vending machines the new Superman-style phone booths? That should be checked out), butthere probably aren’t many places that haven’t heardabout the suspect with yellow/orange shorts ... orshoes.
