The tile goes down, panel by panel, starting with one square spot on the floor and expanding outward. The blue sidelines remain surrounded by red seats, and the words ‘Freedom Hall’ are still on the scoreboards. But those words don’t mean much after the UK logo is placed down, a dominating visual in the center of the Louisville arena. For one night, at least, UK blue has taken over Freedom Hall.

Session to teach campus technology By Kelsi Borntraeger news@kykernel.com

UK’s Information Technology will host a session to bring more innovative technologies in teaching and learning Wednesday. The session, titled “Open and Captured Content: The Twenty-first Century Classroom Experience,” will provide insight about the new technology, called open content. UK, along with other universities, is adopting this practice, which captures lectures for reuse and allows “students to replay lectures to enhance their understanding,” according to the IT news release on the event. Three speakers have been invited to present at the event – Cable Green, director of eLearning and Open Education for the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges, Chris Huff, who represents the leading course capture technology company Echo 360, and Tim MacEldowney, the Mid-South regional sales manager for Echo 360, according to the news release. In an e-mail to the Kernel, Ashley Tabb, IT’s communications manager, said these speakers were invited to share features and opportunities new technologies could provide to the future of higher education. Green will discuss how technology is used for open content in research and community colleges and how it benefits higher education initiations, faculty and students. UK College of Medicine faculty will explain how Echo 360 has been implemented in courses during the past year and discuss feedback from faculty and students on the success of the system, Tabb said.

In addition to the nostalgia and history associated with this year’s bowl for coach and veteran players, Phillips pointed to the late date—the Compass Bowl is the second-to-last bowl game of the year—as means of getting in extra
With convenience a primary advantage of the new online basketball lottery registration, many students are signing on and securing their spot to witness the 2010-2011 team. Student Government President Ryan Smith said the number of students who signed up for the first and second lotteries was in the same range as last year. The first lottery had about 5,500 students sign up. The second lottery, which was held Monday evening, had about 5,800 students sign up, Smith said. According to a Nov. 16 Kernel article, 3,750 individuals were awarded the four-game series tickets during the first lottery. After the first lottery, UK Athletics has made other changes to the online registration process. The way students can get eRUPPtion Zone tickets is one of the changes. eRUPPtion Zone tickets will now be distributed at the first two ticket windows, and each game must be selected individually, according to the UK Athletics website. Tickets cannot be purchased from two different windows, and students cannot select Erupption Zone seats for some games and regular seats for others. Smith said the new lottery system and all changes made are in the best interest of the students.

Cats pleased with Compass Bowl invite UK plays Pittsburgh on Jan. 8 in fifth consecutive bowl appearance By Nick Craddock ncraddock@kykernel.com
The Cats (6-6, 2-6 Southeastern Conference) are going bowling for a school-record fifth straight year, and although the BBVA Compass Bowl may not carry the same prestige as one of the other 34—and perhaps more prominent—bowl games, UK head coach Joker Phillips gave a laundry list of reasons for him and his players to be excited for the Jan. 8 matchup with Pittsburgh. Most notably, UK has the distinction of being one of 29 programs in the nation going to at
least a fifth straight bowl game, something only four fifth-year seniors on the current roster have been able to experience—quarterback Mike Hartline, defensive tackle Ricky Lumpkin, long snapper J.J. Helton and offensive lineman Marcus Davis. “I think (a win would) mean the world to guys like Ricky Lumpkin and Mike Hartline, who came here only on our vision,” Phillips said. “We were selling them a vision and a dream that we had, and I think it'll mean the world to them. It will mean that they are able to go out on top because they hung in there with us and believed it.”

Lumpkin said despite being a part of this program’s turnaround, one final win would be the perfect way to end a career.

Business junior Maggie Linneman is overall supportive of the new method and recent changes made to the second round, primarily for convenience. “I was actually selected to get tickets in the first round and since it was so easy, I signed up for the second lottery as well,” she said. “I selected Erupption Zone tickets and surprisingly got an e-mail back saying I was chosen for the second lottery as well. It’s such an easy, efficient process I’m surprised the numbers haven’t dramatically
increased.” The first lottery had about 1,000 tickets left over, and 190 tickets were purchased the next day, Smith said. Based on availability, unclaimed student tickets from Monday will go on sale Tuesday at 9 a.m. at the UK Athletics Ticket Office, located in the Joe Craft Center behind Memorial Coliseum. For more information about the changes or about tickets, students can contact the UK Athletics Ticket Office at 800-928-2287 or 859-257-1818 or by e-mail at studenttickets@uky.edu.
communicate the latest technology trends in higher education.” Arts and Sciences Dean Mark Kornbluh helped lead an initiative to bring 29 new online classes to UK for summer 2010, where different online technologies were used. Kornbluh said new technologies in classrooms and
teaching are important because they help faculty improve their abilities. Without the technologies, not much exists to help assist the teachers. “The more we can do to expose the new developments, the better,” Kornbluh said. Wednesday’s session will be at 1 p.m. in the W.T. Young Library auditorium.

Sponsor The Dish! Bad reception can't kill morning news Why doesn't CBS just cancel "The Early Show"? That's the question I asked CBS News boss Sean McManus last week when we talked about the wholesale ouster of the show's on-air team. It's not that I have anything against the program or the people on it. Maggie Rodriguez, in particular, knows how to ask guests good questions, then keep her mouth shut while they answer, a skill in short supply in morning television. But as McManus readily admitted, CBS has a track record of ratings failure in morning news that goes back more than half a century. "There've been many, many, many iterations and reiterations of the show," he said, "and nothing has worked." So why do it? Pulling in a morning audience has only gotten harder over the past 15 years as CBS competes against not just NBC and ABC but CNN, HLN, Fox News, MSNBC, CNBC and Bloomberg. Where is it written that every network has to air news between 7 and 9 a.m.? The answer, McManus said, is on the bottom line. "These shows are so very profitable," he told me. "It's a good way to amortize your news costs. 'The Early Show' makes a profit for CBS News and for the corporation. It doesn't make as much as the 'Today' show or 'Good Morning America,' but it makes a nice
Horoscope To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6 — Both genders work together to get romance on track. This could be in the form of a play or some other dramatic presentation. Take extra care of your voice. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7 — Love enters the picture and takes over your imagination. Use your talents to motivate your partner. Dare to dream sweeter dreams. Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 6 — Create the mood you want. Show that you're passionate about your idea and want to see it through. A brief prayer or meditation couldn't hurt. Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6 — A female provides a ton of ideas that all seem to elevate your mood. As you feel more capa-
profit. It's an important show for us to do." Not that McManus hasn't pondered getting rid of morning news as, he's sure, the other broadcast networks have also done. "But we all come back to the same thing. In the morning, there's a certain type of show people want to watch. ... (It's the mix) we all use now: hard news and light features and live interviews." Of course, some shows do it better than others, at least in the ratings, which brings us to HLN's sneaky success with Robin Meade's morning program. Meade has been whipping her CNNcousin competitors, John Roberts and Kiran Chetry, for quite a while now in terms of total viewers, and in the prime news demographic of ages 25 to 54, her ratings are double those of the CNN show. Gossip has circulated for months that CNN is on the verge of dumping Roberts and Chetry, but with the show's audience dropping below a quarter of a million viewers, the rumors are gaining some urgency. They were not exactly quelled when Roberts snapped at a colleague on the air recently. The Huffington Post reported he was telling Chetry to quit typing so loudly. (Maybe she was doing her resume?) But who knows? Maybe he was really talking to Robin Meade.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7 — Speak about independent thinking today with co-workers. Encourage others to participate while sharing your ideas for a dynamic new sales pitch or marketing idea. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6 — Take your time today with ideas that need quiet.

A Kentucky Exposition Center employee works toward installing the UK basketball floor in Freedom Hall on Monday, Dec. 6, 2010.
TRANSFORMATION Continued from page 1 “There’s a lot more blue in there than I’ve ever seen,” said Edward Browne, director of public relations and media for the Kentucky State Fair Board. UK will play Notre Dame in the SEC/Big East Invitational on Wednesday in Freedom Hall, and the accompanying aesthetic makeover of Freedom Hall is a strange one. The blue and the red clash, a physical manifestation of a renowned rivalry. There used to be a Louisville basket-
“
ball court on Freedom Hall’s floor, but not anymore. The Cardinal logo hasn’t been in place for a few months, now. But the recent absence doesn’t diminish the feeling that the giant ‘UK’ in the middle of the floor is invading cherished ground. “We’ve had some fans come by and take a look at it,” Browne said. “It’s been in good nature, they’ve been pleasant. But they all say how different it looks now.” UK has a tradition of playing a game in Freedom Hall to spread some Wildcat basketball to a neighboring city. But this is the first time, according to Browne, that the blue logo has graced the longtime Louisville arena. UK Athletics wasn’t involved in the process of the floor
transformation and wasn’t aware the court was being changed until this week, UK spokesman DeWayne Peevy said. “There was a lot of interest in what was happening,” Browne said. “People were wondering if it was really going to happen, you know – putting a UK floor down in Freedom Hall? That created a lot of buzz. People aren’t used to seeing it.” Louisville basketball, of course, has vacated its old premises for the new Yum! Center. Browne said the fact that Louisville no longer plays in Freedom Hall may have enabled the makeover. “There will be a UK basketball game inside Freedom Hall,” Browne said. “We’re here to make it happen.”
We’ve had some fans come by and take a look at it. ... They all say how different it looks now.”

practices to help his team develop. Phillips also said that Pitt’s pedigree fits the billing for the kind of challenge his program wants in a bowl game. In the past four years, UK has played former national champions Florida State and Clemson (twice) in bowl games, and Pitt (7-5, 5-2 Big East) not only has won a national championship, but also tied for a share of its conference crown. These positives to take away from the bowl game are why Lumpkin said players are still exicted despite a season of missed opportunities. “What more people are down about is what could’ve been,” said Lumpkin, who added that criticism from fans for going to a so-called “lower-tier bowl game is just one of those things.” “Take the criticism, as along the criticism comes with winning…at the end of day we’re going to a bowl game,” Lumpkin said. “I’d rather fans be hard on us for winning than losing.” After all, this year’s SEC East champions, South Carolina, played in the Compass Bowl last year. Phillips said he wants this year’s bowl game to be a stepping stone to the same

success the Gamecocks enjoyed. “For the sixth straight bowl game, I want to be fighting for the title,” Phillips said. Cobb, Trevathan named AP All-SEC first team Junior wide receiver Randall Cobb and junior linebacker Danny Trevathan were named to the Associated Press All-SEC First team Monday. Cobb, who is ranked second in the SEC in allpurpose yardage, was named to the First team as an all-purpose player. He was also named to the Second team as a wide receiver after leading the SEC in catches (79), good for 955 yards and seven touchdowns. He was one of only two recognized players— Alabama defensive back Earl Barron was the other—to garner back-to-back All-Conference First team honors. Trevathan led the SEC in tackles with 130 and led UK in tackling in nine games this season. Cobb and Trevathan have both said that they might enter the NFL Draft process following the season.

Speed dating with one person ALISON
CARSON
Kernel columnist Moving too fast. It’s a common occurrence at the beginning of a relationship with the spontaneous combustion of chemistry between two people. The rush of finding out everything about this new person makes you practically attached at the hip. But the dangers of moving too fast could ruin your chance at sustaining a real relationship in the long run. Being in a meaningful re-
lationship really shouldn’t be a sprint. Sure, upon first meeting the gun fires and you take off down the track, but you will burn out if you try to sprint the whole way through. It can be hard to recognize that youre moving too fast with all of the butterflies swirling about, but its important to recognize when to pump the breaks. If you find yourself completely abandoning your friends and family for just another second with the other person, you should slow down.
It’s important to establish a balance right off the bat so that later when you want a girls or guys night out, the other person isn’t shocked. Your friends and family have been there longer for you; you don’t want to make them feel as though they’ve been replaced. When relationships move super fast, you tend to cram in everything you think you should know about the person in a short period of time, giving the false sense of security that you do. To truly know a person takes time, and people don’t show their true colors right away. It’s important to have some distance and natural progression before you can truly trust someone.
If at the beginning of a hyper speed relationship you are the overwhelming feelings of “are we crazy?” It’s probably because you are. Throwing caution to the wind and going against your innate instincts of moving too fast will do nothing but hurt your relationship. It isn’t until you’ve had your first real fight or have truly taken the time to learn what makes the other person tick that you can truly be in a caring and committed relationship. The faster a relationship moves, the quicker you can become bored with each other. When it comes to relationships, slow and steady really does with the race.

Immigration: a global perspective
Greeks’ grade hike KERNEL EDITORIAL More brothers may have to hit the books, thanks to new academic measures being taken by the Greek system. A Nov. 22 Kernel article said that fraternities at UK are raising their organizational grade point average membership requirement to 3.0. The article said that the change would be implemented over the course of the next three semesters, with the minimum GPA rising from its current 2.88 minimum to 2.9 by spring 2011, 2.95 by Fall 2011 and 3.0 by Spring 2011. This new measure promises to help ensure fraternity members’ academic success. To ensure compliance, the Kernel article described how fraternities will practice incentive and punitive measures. The article said chapters that “make continuous improvement” to raise organizational GPA may have more time to reach the 3.0 goal and those who go above 3.0 will have their Interfraternity Council dues decreased incrementally (from $75 reduction for a 3.2 organizational GPA to $275 for a 3.4 organizational GPA). Chapters that don’t meet the new standards may have to meet with their national fraternity adviser, lose their Interfraternity vote, be under social probation, be excluded from intramural participation and lose the right to recruit freshmen in the fall. One of the major selling points of sororities and fraternities to freshmen-to-be when they come to campus advising and pre-semester events is that Greeks maintain higher GPAs on average than non-Greeks. While these academic goals may seem somewhat lofty, they are necessary if Greeks want to maintain this bragging right. It puts pressure on all members to perform well in the classroom and to conform to a higher standard. And isn’t that the point?

How to write for page five, why Are you opinionated? Or just thoughtful? Do you like to express your opinions and thoughts before a broad and diverse audience? Do you like to write? Do believe in democracy? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then your dream job may well lie in opinion or editorial writing. Cassidy Herrington, Kernel Opinion Editor, recommends opinions writing for a ELOISE number of reasons. Herrington LYNCH revealed in an interview that Guest while the Opinion section falls columnist three or four pages beneath news stories, she feels it is vital to American democracy. “It’s a forum where everyone can participate,” she said. And Opinion stories can have a far-reaching impact — Herrington’s story “’Undercover’ in Hijab” reached readers in more than a hundred countries. Not convinced yet? Perhaps you think newspaper writing is too fact-driven and impersonal for you. Well listen to this: Opinion writers don’t have to worry about many of the restrictions involved with news writing, as Tim Harrower notes in his book, “Inside Reporting: A Practical Guide to the Craft of Journalism.” Harrower lists three main types of Opinion stories, and each requires a personal touch. A “topical commentary” piece, for example, begs personal commentary concerning “political events and social controversies;” you wouldn’t simply tell what happened, but use your opinions, recollections and emotions to
animate the event for the reader. “Personal meditation” stories clearly concern the revelation of personal “truths that resonate with readers,” such as “painful, poignant, and humorous insights about families, friends and social relationships.” In writing a “slice-of-life” Opinion piece, you would act as a “storyteller” depicting colorful scenes from everyday lives. Sounds fun, right? Now that you’re hooked, here are some tips from writers Tim Harrower, Cassidy Herrington, Jason Grant, an English major and JAR editor, and Chris McCurry, the former Cat’s Figment editor in chief, to get you started on your way to becoming an Opinion writer: 1. Craft your own “distinctive voice.” Herrington says that the most successful Opinion stories are “honest” and “upfront.” Don’t feel you have to edit your writing to sound scholarly or mute your perspective to sound moderate. Chris McCurry said “you don’t want to compromise your voice to fit in with [a] magazine.” 2. “Infrom your opinions.” Herrington warned that if your opinions aren’t supported with “facts and evidence,” your readers won’t pay any attention to what you have to say. 3. Write about “worthy topics.” Harrower warns against writing about common or cliché topics. Jason Grant asserted that editors will favor writing that “surprises them” and offers “something new.” Put your opinions, writing skills and patriotism to work in Opinion writing. You might just find that it’s your dream job. Eloise Lynch is an English education senior. E-mail opinions@kykernel.com.
Believe it or not, the United States is not the only country with an “immigration problem.” Many countries struggle with national identity as immigrants come to take jobs not available in their home country. In my travels to Europe and Germany specifically, I have encountered similar situations to our own. First a little background. In Germany, a labor shortage after World War II and a masBENJAMIN sive rebuilding effort led to KELLER the importation of many forGuest eign workers, most notably columnist from Turkey. Originally, it was thought that after the initial reconstruction effort, these Turkish workers would return home. However, the German economic miracle led many Turks to stay in Germany with its many opportunities. Combine this with an aging population and Germany today has a very real economic need for young foreign workers to pay into the system. So what does that mean for today? Germany doesn’t have an equivalent to the Fourteenth Amendment guaranteeing citizenship to all natural-born citizens so Turks born in Germany may never become citizens. Turks are often relegated to a second-class position in society. If you speak with Germans, you get a mixed picture about how to solve the problem. Protection of national identity is something that every European values. They ask themselves, ‘What does it mean to be German?’ To some that simply means integrating into German culture. To others it is heritage. This question is all the more difficult with Germany’s history in World War II and the Holocaust. The German language has a word specifically for coming to terms with its past, Vergangenheitsbewältigung. To simply dismiss a group of people as not German would be very controversial. And it isn’t just up to the German people to welcome (or not welcome) immigrants to their country. Integration into society can just as well be seen as the destruction of heritage. You never can guess what someone will claim to be when you speak to them. ‘I’m German, but my parents are from Korea,’ or ‘I’m Moroccan, not French.’ Some embrace their new country (often the place where they were born) and others shun it. So where does that leave America, you may ask? Well, hopefully in a position to learn from the mistakes of others. As long as immigrants are willing to come, work and be productive members of society, are we in a position to turn them away? Or even worse, brand them as not American? For ‘this land is your land’ after all. Benjamin Keller is a management/decision science and information systems senior. E-mail opinions@kykernel.com.
