PHOTOS BY BRITNEY MCINTOSH| STAFFTerrence Jones goes in for a layup in the first half of the UK men's basketball win overagainst the Georgia Bulldogs at Rupp Arena on Saturday.

UK 66, UGA 60

William T. Young Library buzzed with ideas Fri-day as the campus community spoke of leadership,ambition and passion: qualities it envisions in UK’snext president.

Members of the Presidential Search Committeepolled students, faculty and staff to find out whatthey are seeking in the next person who takes thehelm at UK.

Student suggestions included keeping educationa top priority, emphasizing the arts and humanities,increasing student involvement on campus and im-proving retention rates.

“I think the top characteristic is to be passionateabout our school and our state and the improvementof both,” journalism junior Morgan Rose said. “Ithink that action follows passion because if you’repassionate about something, you’re going to be mo-tivated to effect change.”

A group of UK law students came to the forumto ensure that the new facility they hope to receive inthe future remains atop the next president’s agenda.

“It’s a great school, but the building doesn’t quitemeet that standard,” first-year law student LaurenBiggs said. “Since there’s a change in administrationwe want to make sure that the new building remainsa top priority.”

Although some students braved the cold weatherto attend the forum, the majority of the student bodyvoiced their concerns online. Wildcat Student TVprovided live streaming video so that students couldrespond directly to the panel regardless of their loca-tions.

An 18-month trialexploring the use of Ap-ple’s iPad in higher edu-cation is underway at theUniversity of Kentucky’sPatterson School ofDiplomacy and Interna-tional Commerce.

This trial marks thefirst time the iPad will beused by every studentand faculty memberwithin a professionalgraduate program. Cur-rently, 38 students in thePatterson School will re-ceive iPads through thetrial, with another 35from the 2011 incomingclass joining over thenext several months.

“The real examplethis sets is for profes-sional schools,” retiredAmbassador and Patter-son School DirectorCarey Cavanaugh said.“If this trial works, itshould work for the busi-ness and law schoolshere at UK and aroundthe world.”

Cavanaugh hopesthat incorporating theiPad into the Patterson

School will preparegraduates for diplomacyand international busi-ness in the digital world.

The idea to launch atechnology initiativewithin the PattersonSchool came to Ca-vanaugh last summer af-ter he viewed a film thatemphasized the signifi-cance of technology dur-ing elections in Iran.

“[The film] made itclear to me how impor-tant digital technologywill be with internationalpolitics in the future,”Cavanaugh said. Hewrote a letter to Appleheadquarters suggestingthe iPad trial, and withinweeks planning was un-derway.

Apple is providingiPad technical assistanceand training throughoutthe trial. Apple expertswill also be workingclosely with UK’s soft-ware development teamto determine ways inwhich iPad applicationscan be adapted to facili-tate use in the classroom.

Impressive. Then complacent.That’s the transition UK (16-4, 4-2 SEC)

made during the course of its 66-60 win overGeorgia (14-6, 3-4) that avenged a loss earlier inthe season.

In the first half, it was clear which team hadbeen preparing for this game with a week off (thatwould be UK) and which was coming off a dou-ble-overtime loss (that would be Georgia). On topof that was the team and the crowd gearing up toavenge the Jan. 8 loss.

With those factors at play, UK forced threeearly turnovers and two misses while racing to a14-4 lead.

“I remember at one point we had all five of usin defensive stance, clapping, the crowd’s into it,”senior forward Josh Harrellson said.

That scene was a contrast to the first meetingbetween these two teams, when Georgia “man-handled.”

But UK responded with a physical perform-ance. In the first half, Darius Miller epitomizedthe shift when he took to the air, trying to dunkover two Georgia defenders.

The ball came loose and he was fouled, butHarrellson nearly tackled him afterward applaud-ing the effort.

“I just had an open lane, really,” Miller said,who finished with 14 points and seven rebounds.“We’ve been trying to finish at the rim, so I justtried to finish at the rim.”

UK sustained its play through the rest of thefirst half, slicing open Georgia’s 3-2 zone, whichGeorgia head coach Mark Fox said was playedtoo long because of foul issues. UK sliced it openwith drives and kicks in building a 39-24 lead.

“What I liked was we got the ball in the mid-dle, we made the pass, we swung the ball and weknocked down the open shot,” UK head coachJohn Calipari said.

The play to close the first half, though, couldhave served as an omen: Gerald Robinsonstreaked 92 feet in seven seconds to put up abuzzer-beating layup attempt. Eloy Vargas, goingfor the block, tipped it in for him.

And in the second half, Georgia started com-ing back as UK started missing shots. UK made51.7 percent of its shots in the first half, comparedto 31.8 percent in the second half.

“We came out (in the second half) playinglike we already won,” freshman forward TerrenceJones said after scoring seven points and grabbingseven rebounds. “They came back and got into itlittle by little. We started settling for threes.”

Added Harrellson: “I just think we get com-fortable. We were up 10, 12 points and got com-fortable out there. Took our foot off the gas and

Doron Lamb throws up three fingers after making a three in the first half of the UK men'sbasketball win against the Georgia Bulldogs.

Amid speculation that UKwide receivers coach Tee Mar-tin would be leaving his job for

a position ata n o t h e rschool, UKhead coachJoker Phillipsa n n o u n c e dSaturday thatMartin hadbeen signedto a contractextension and

will assume the added title ofpassing game coordinator.

“I’m elated, so emotionaland so excited about the feelingof being wanted,” Martin said.“The work begins here and Ilook forward to it.”

Martin said that someschools–which he would notname–did express interest inhiring him, but that no formalinterviews took place.

“I remained loyal to myboss, and the moment I heardsomething, he heard some-thing,” Martin said.

Although Martin will begiven a new title, much of hisjob description will remain thesame. Phillips and offensivecoordinator and quarterbacks

coach Randy Sanders, whoMartin played for during hiscollegiate career at Tennessee,had already discussed expand-ing Martin’s duties throughoutthe season.

For Phillips, keeping Martinon staff and staving off the “pi-ranhas” interested in luring himaway was a key to continuinghis vision of building a champi-onship contender at UK.

“(Martin) is a guy who willbe a coordinator in time, hewill be a guy who is runninghis own program soon,”Phillips said. “We felt that forhim to continue to progress hiscareer, it was time for us to

give him the title of passinggame coordinator.”

In addition to the new titleMartin will receive, he will alsobe receiving a pay raise, thoughPhillips would not specify thedetails of the contract.

Phillips said shelling outthe extra money was worth itconsidering the “huge impact”Martin had in his first year inLexington.

“We do what we have to doto keep our coaching staff in-tact,” Phillips said, who alsothanked UK athletic directorMitch Barnhart for his commit-ment to building the UK foot-ball program.

DeAndre Liggins’ eyes glanced offthe court at times. His mind wanderedaway from the basketball games.

It was because he had seven familymembers — his mother, who was watch-ing her son play for the first time sincehis freshman year, along with two sistersand four cousins — in the stands.

“Oh my god. I was just looking at her

while I was playing and kind of lost fo-cus,” Liggins said. “I was happy to seeher and got kind of emotional. I’m justhappy they came.”

Liggins seemed to play with someextra aggressiveness, driving the lanemore often and hoisting up shots. Hescored 11 points on 3-for-10 shootingand got to the free-throw line eight times.

for external affairs, addressedthe panel with questions andcomments from Facebook,Twitter and e-mail.

“UK needs an experi-enced academic in the presi-dent’s office, not just a presi-dent or CEO,” UK graduateTravis Waldron tweeted.

The Presidential SearchCommittee met Friday after-noon to discuss feedbackfrom the forums. The nutsand bolts of the selectionprocess are also being final-ized, such as whether or notcandidates’ names will bekept confidential throughoutthe search process.

The committee made themotion that all the names ofthe presidential candidateswill be kept confidential until

three to five finalists are cho-sen. Those names will thenbe released if all of the final-ists agree to it.

Debate centered onwhether the Board of Trusteesshould release one preferredcandidate to the campus be-fore it announces the newpresident. Therefore, the pre-ferred candidate would meetthe UK community before be-ing offered the position ratherthan being presented to theuniversity as the new hire.

The committee could notreach a unanimous decisionon introducing a preferredcandidate to the campus, butit did agree to keep candidatenames confidential until thefinalists are chosen.

Both of these motionswill be voted on by the Boardof Trustees at its Feb. 22meeting.

“It will be good to get the

input from all the board mem-bers,” Student GovernmentPresident Ryan Smith said.“Whatever process attractsthe best candidates is the oneI’m going to support.”

Smith, a graduate student,and political science and pre-dentistry junior Taylor Coxare the only students on thePresidential Search Commit-tee. Smith said that he thinksthey have “a really goodgrasp for what student priori-ties are right now,” but thatthey are still seeking furtherfeedback.

“Taylor Cox and I are try-ing our best to make our-selves as available as possibleto students, and if they haveany input or suggestions, theycan stop by the student gov-ernment office. I would en-courage people to take an ac-tive role in the process,”Smith said.

viduals and companiesthroughout the United States,Canada and Europe are sup-porting the trial by donatingaccessories and applications.

“It was important to getoutside support, because wewanted every student in theschool to be able to use [aniPad] in the classroom,” Ca-vanaugh said.

Applications such asPressReader, created byNewspaperDirect Inc., pro-vide students with over 1,700full-content newspapers from

around the world. “[Our students will] have

daily access to over 1,000newspapers,” Cavanaughsaid. “If we had students fromIceland, they could read 11newspapers from Iceland. Wethink it will really changethings in the classroom.”

Other applications such asTeleprompt+ by BombingBrain Interactive will allowPatterson School students toprepare and deliver speechesusing a teleprompter on theiPad.

“We’re hoping apps likethese can enhance the class-room experience,” Chase Ca-vanaugh, a first year Patter-son School student, said.

Andrew Betson, anotherfirst year Patterson Schoolstudent, agrees.

“The iPad basically pro-vides you with all of yourreading consolidated in oneportable device,” Betson said.“It’s also a nice one-stop shopfor social networking and e-mail.”

Students and faculty willalso be documenting the full18-month trial online athttp://ipad.uky.edu.

put it in neutral and just rolledalong.”

Georgia climbed withineight points with 8:21 to go,but never got closer than sixpoints. Trey Thompkinsmissed multiple open three-pointers. It was one of thosenights for Georgia stars; hescored nine points on 2-for-10shooting, and Travis Leslie

missed all seven shot at-tempts.

“Today we changed it upand didn’t let (Thompkins)get in the groove,” said Ter-rence Jones, who split the as-signment with Harrellson. “Ijust wanted to keep my handsstraight up and make shotsdifficult for him.”

Still, the end of the gamewas sloppy for UK. Up sevenwith a minute to go, DariusMiller was called for a five-second inbounding violationwith four timeouts available.

UK got a stop, and on the en-suing inbounds play Millergot it in – but then Knight fellout of bounds, giving the ballback.

UK ended up makingenough free throws to staveoff any desperation come-back, but it got closer thanUK wanted.

“We easily left ourselvesin a position that we couldhave dropped this,” Caliparisaid. “There was no reasonfor that. We had this game inhand.”

Recently, while walking into the Johnson Center, I becameimmediately aware of all the people who — prior to Dec. 31,specifically — had never stepped foot into a gym in their lives.

And if they did, it was merely to provethat they were not among the varied classesof “lazy” people, but rather those who sim-ply “didn’t have enough time” to go to thegym regularly.

We all know these people.The ones who put on a brand new pair

of Nikes and a spandex suit only to tra-verse the rugged terrain of a running trackfor two laps, and then quit after whinycomplaints about a “sprained ankle.”

Or the people who spend an inordinateamount of money on lifting gloves (and,therefore, leg braces) so they can squat 10

pounds until the first drop of sweat hits the floor signaling forthe time to “call it quits” and go home.

Or, what about the girl on the elliptical who’s reading thecollector’s edition of “Twilight” while she slowly and careless-ly glides on the zero-inclined machine that’s periodically beep-ing, telling her to move faster.

These are the people that we serious gym-goers try toavoid at all costs. (And by “serious gym-goers,” I mean peo-ple who actually go to the gym to sweat and get what’s sub-jectively called “a good workout.”)

It’s hard to sympathize with those people who have thetime to dedicate to the gym and the physical capacity to workout, but chose to recreate their living room coziness by takingup space on equipment that’s being waited on.

Sympathy, actually, isn’t at all the word that comes tomind. Adjectives such as impatient, infuriated and judgmental— usually in that order — are all appropriate.

It’s fair to be judgmental of those who should be, by now,knowledgeable of what the functions of a gym are really like,and respectful of the people who are (often times violently)

trying to work around them. You lackluster gym-goers can be,should be and are being judged by those of us who are vigor-ously running to 50 Cent and lifting weights until our wholebody aches in accomplishment.

You lackluster gym-goers have had your chance. You’vehad countless new years to prove your abilities to work out ef-fectively, and have instead chosen to do nothing more than getin the way of those of us who are trying our best to maximizethe free time we’ve dedicated to physical activity.

With that being said, there are many people who, thisNew Year’s, made a vow to themselves to try something new— to work out and be physically in shape. For those of youwho are still dragging yourselves around to gyms aroundtown, trying to maintain some level of motivation, know thatit gets easier. If it hasn’t already become a routine for you, iteventually will.

Here on campus we have many programs that are de-signed to help first time gym-goers reach their desired goalsfor physical fitness. We have classes, groups, weekend retreats(ask Johnson Center workers) and intramural team sports de-signed to make fitness fun and enjoyable.

Personal trainers and workout programs are available forall body types, along with many experienced athletes who arealways willing to help people who are “first-timers” trying toget the hang of the often times complex machines.

You, my friends, deserve a pat on the back for stepping upand trying to make a difference in yourself. Jumping intoworkouts head-first with good intentions and drive is a posi-tive thing that should be commended. It’s hard. If it wasn’t,it’d be called going to the movies.

The drive that manifests itself in the gym is often times aprecursor to the drive and ambition we have in other areas oflife. You don’t want to be the person who idly stands by whilewatching others achieve their goals — to succeed physically(and mentally) you need to try…hard.

These Cats are Weebles,the popular children’s toyfrom the 1980s—they wob-ble, but they don’t fall down.

First, the question waswhether these youthful Catscould win on the road. Thatwas answered with a 67-58win in South Carolina oneweek ago.

Now the major questionseems to be whether theseCats can close out games ef-fectively after wobblingdown the stretch for the sec-ond straight game, this timestaving off Georgia’s furiouscomeback attempt.

“We easily put ourselvesin a position where wecould’ve dropped this andthere’s no reason for that,”

UK men’s basketball headcoach John Calipari said ofUK’s 66-60 win over Geor-gia. “We had this game inhand.”

The operative word inCalipari’s statement is “had.”

The Cats’ largest lead,17, came late in Saturday’sfirst half—arguably the Cats’most energetic and well-exe-cuted half of the season—butthey could never rekindle theform they found in the open-ing 20 minutes coming out ofthe locker room. In fact,without the first half UKprobably wouldn’t have hadthe same luck in withstand-ing yet another late charge,one week removed from asimilar situation in Colum-bia, S.C. against the Game-cocks.

“Kentucky came out ofthe gate so strong that wewere playing catch up thewhole night,” Georgia headcoach Mark Fox said. “Wejust couldn’t finish enough

plays to get back all the wayin it.”

What might’ve helped theCats more were the absolute-ly horrid offensive perform-ances of Georgia’s top-twoscorers entering the game,Trey Thompkins and TravisLeslie, who finished a com-bined 2-for-17 from the fieldin the game, but it was also aconfluence of factors.

It was a lack of toughnessinside in the second half asGeorgia out-rebounded theCats 27-17 in the half.

It was the inability tomake clutch free throwsdown the stretch as the Catsclanked front ends of one-and-one situations at the free-throw line.

It was mental errors bythe Cats, such as theturnovers on back-to-back in-bounds plays within the finalminute, that could’ve resultedin much worse had UK juniorDeAndre Liggins not bailedout his team by forcing Geor-

gia into miscues on their re-sulting possessions.

And it’s those kind ofplays from Liggins and therest of the upperclassmen thatUK needs on a regular basisto avoid slipping into a pat-tern of biting their nails dur-ing the final minutes ofgames.

“This team has to beabout Darius (Miller), DeAn-dre and Josh (Harrellson),they’re juniors and seniors,it’s got to be about them,”Calipari said. “It’s what theyaccept, what they expect andthey have to be the guys mak-ing plays down the stretch,not (the) freshmen.”

Miller acknowledged thatthe veterans weren’t makingthe plays necessary to closethe games.

“I don’t really think wedid it today, and that’s part ofthe reason that they had thecomeback and had a chanceto win,” Miller said. “I thinkwe have mental letdowns re-

ally, we get up on a team likethat and we don’t feel like thegame is over, but we play likethe game is over and we defi-nitely can’t do that, especiallynot in this league.”

Going forward, the Cats

can’t relax and merely toywith opponents after buildingbig leads. At least not at atime when they are the bas-ketball version of Weebles—so far, they’ve wobbled, butthey’ve won.

Cats’ closing ability coming into question

Are all Muslims extrem-ists? Is “Allah” the same as“God”? Are Catholics justdrunk Protestants? Questionslike these, among others, willbe addressed on Monday nightat the Cultural Tolerance Fo-rum put on by the Cats Den.

For Corey Kirby, al-though it is sometimes un-comfortable, this forum isabsolutely necessary oncampus. Kirby, events coor-dinator for this program, gotthe idea for the forum aftertaking a course at UK in thefall of 2010 entitled: “Mus-lims in Modern Society.”The class focused on the ef-fects media had on Islamicculture in America and illu-minated a society that har-bors misconceptions aboutreligions and cultures such

as Judaism, Buddhism andArab culture.

“I thought, after takingthat class, it was such a majorissue,” Kirby said. “Especial-ly in Kentucky and on cam-pus. I decided we had allthese different groups oncampus dealing with those is-sues, and it would be a goodidea to bring them togetherand have them talk aboutwhat they face, and for stu-dents to hear about this.”

Kirby realized that forsome, their religion is theirculture, and what was origi-nally the “Religious” Toler-ance Forum became the “Cul-tural” Tolerance Forum.Groups to be representedMonday night include theMuslim Student Association,the Catholic Newman Centerand Hillel – the Jewish stu-dent organization on campus.

“We definitely need (toler-ance) in the US, because it is amulti-cultural country, and weneed to learn how to respectothers’ ideas and religions. Weare human and this is the basicidea we have to accept andlove,” Haneen Al-Dabbagh,from the Muslim Student As-sociation, said.

Kirby shares this opinionwith Haneen about the media’seffect on how Americans per-ceive other religions and cul-tures. She has a reason forbringing this information tostudents.

“If people don’t go seekthe knowledge, particularlywith Islamic culture in Amer-ica, they’re not going to findit,” Kirby said. “You have togo actively looking.”

The Cultural Tolerance Fo-rum will take on a presentationformat, in which each group

representative will speak oncommon misconceptions abouttheir religions. This will be fol-lowed by a Q-and-A sessionbetween representatives andstudents in attendance.

“I’ve asked the represen-tatives to talk about stereo-types they face either throughthe Internet or media,” Kirbysaid. “My goal is that studentswill learn about issues thesedifferent groups face theymay have been unaware ofbefore.”

In line with Kirby’s hopesfor the program, Hillel presi-dent, Solange Minstein, hopesto address different questionspeople have about Judaismand to dispel certain preju-dices associated with it.

The Cultural ToleranceForum will take place at 6p.m. Monday at the Cats Denin the Student Center.
