Reports of shots fired lock down south campus By Morgan Eads meads@kykernel.com
Students were given the all-clear about two hours after they were instructed to stay inside their dorms Sunday night because of reports that shots were fired on South campus. No suspects, firearms or
shell casings were found after the UK and Lexington Police Departments searched the construction area near Woodland Avenue by the Woodland Glen residence halls. No one was injured, UK police chief Joe Monroe said. UK alerts went out to cell phones, landlines and emer-
gency towers at about 10 p.m. saying that shots had been fired in the “Complex area.” Shortly after, a second alert was sent out to narrow the area down to the Kirwan/Blanding Complex area. In situations like this one, UK spokesman Jay Blanton said that the focus of the UK
Alert system is to get information out as quickly as possible. After more information is learned, the alerts can then be updated for more specific information, he said. Two separate witnesses had called the UK Police Department at about 9:30 to report a large group and sounds
of one to three gunshots, Monroe said. The witnesses said the group was heading toward the construction area on Woodland Avenue. UK police and Lexington police then arrived on scene and searched for about two hours with several officers and K9 units.
The search of the area ended around midnight, Monroe said. The attention then turned to the investigation, including a review of security footage from the cameras in the area. Though students were encouraged to remain inside, See LOCKDOWN on page 3
UK breaks SEC losing streak
The new era of Kentucky football achieved one of its main goals on Saturday, defeating its first Southeastern Conference team since 2011. The Cats took a 17-7 victory over Vanderbilt in a game that came down to a solid UK defensive squad, nicknamed the “Bad Boys.”

Column: UK offense needs to step up JOSHUA HUFF Kernel Columnist
For the first two games of the season, UK quarterback Patrick Towles had zero turnovers and was called a game manager. Since then, Towles has thrown four interceptions, fumbled three times (recovered once) and has forced more balls into tight coverage than Brett Farve during his heyday.
Now it’s fair to question Towles’ ability to step up to the higher levels of competition. UK’s offense did not win the game against Vanderbilt. They simply played not to lose. Which has been sufficient so far for the Cats, considering they are anchored by a terrific defense that still has not allowed a touchdown in the first half of a game this season. But if the Cats want to win any future Southeastern Conference games, Towles and the offense needs, to play to win and not just to minimize mistakes.
Something UK head coach Mark Stoops can attest to. “Yeah, he’s got to hold onto it,” Stoops said about Towles who had an interception and fumbled twice during the Vanderbilt game. “That can’t happen. That’s frustrating, but we’ll get it fixed.” Along with the turnover issues, Towles also spent too much time moving in the pocket and had trouble picking up his passing reads. “He wasn’t getting rid of it as quickly as he normally does. Even when he wasn’t slipping, he was sitting back
there a little too long, looking a little too indecisive. He was off a little bit for him,” Stoops said. Towles’ worst play came during the second quarter when he tried to squeeze in a pass from UK’s nine-yard line that ended up in the arms of Vanderbilt’s cornerback Darrius Sims, who ran it back 13 yards for the score. Mistakes like that will lose football games. Towles needs to stay sharp and composed if he wants to succeed in this conference. But Stoops is confident that
his quarterback will be fine moving forward. “Patrick will bounce back,” Stoops said. “He did some good things I think early on. Outside of the pick, he had an awful lot of completions. All in all, there are just a lot of mistakes.” Wildcat fans should hope that those mistakes are minimized, because despite going 23-30 for 201 yards, UK will need Towles to keep his hands firmly gripped on the ball if it wants to have any hope of defeating a talented visiting South Carolina team this Saturday.
Events show Chinese culture Confucius Institute Day showcases song, dance By Kendra Smith news@kykernel.com
Traditional Chinese music filled the air as performers danced, sang and played a variety of instruments at the Office of Chinese Language Council International and UK Confucius Institute’s Confucius Institute Day. Adorned booths lined the edge of Triangle Park Saturday morning, each representing a different aspect of Chinese culture. Festival-goers viewed demonstrations of calligraphy, origami, fan dancing, opera mask painting and more physical demonstra-
tions like tai chi. Children ran around the park with Chinese yo-yos and ribbons in hand. UKCI employee Jia Liu, 29, demonstrated a tea ceremony at one of the booths. “I like every part of this event. If it is about Chinese culture, I love it very much,” Liu said. “I did not expect so many people to show up this early on a Saturday.” Confucius Institute director Huajing Maske said she was pleased with the morning’s turnout. “It was such a great event, and we had such beautiful weather,” Maske said. Later that evening, spec-
tators gathered in the Singletary Center for the Arts Recital Hall for the second part of the celebration, which celebrated HanFu, the traditional clothing of the Han Chinese ethnic group, according to the event program. Models donned bright, colorful robes and dresses that stretched to the floor. The models were accompanied by a musician playing the zither, a Chinese string instrument, as well as dancing and folk music. Mu Dan Hong Dance, a Chinese folk dance group based in the Lexington area, also performed, using props
like fans and ribbons to entertain the crowd. “I really enjoyed the ribbon dancing,” said Sam Warford, a psychology and Japanese senior. “It’s good to expose people to different cultures like this.” The event program said Chinese dance is a highly varied art form. Though the dances may have been the highlight of the evening for many, UKCI financial manager Daniel Rogers, 25, said he enjoyed the tea ceremony, which exemplified Chinese etiquette according to the program. There are now 465 Confucius Institutes across 123

Holder should have held Wall Street accountable MATT YOUNG Kernel Columnist
Attorney General Eric Holder announced that he will be stepping down as the nation’s top law enforcement official, sparking discussion across the political circuit about his legacy, his greatest accomplishments and his greatest failures. To me the greatest failure is clear — when banks committed massive amounts of fraud, contributing to the collapse of the economy. Congress and two presidents came to their rescue and gave them trillions of taxpayer dollars so they could get even larger and more powerful, making them an even bigger risk to our economy. One man in the U.S. had the
power to put the executives who were the architects of the crash behind bars. That one man was the Attorney General, and he failed to lift a finger. We may never know how much of that decision was Holder’s alone, and how much was at the direction of President Obama, but it is clear that nothing was done to help the people of this country while Washington D.C. bent over backwards so far and so fast they broke their back helping the banks. Holder went after the institutions, winning fines that were a fraction of a percent of the amount swindled from homeowners through fraud, and again from taxpayers through bailouts; however, he never laid a finger on the executives responsible for the institution’s actions. Just how little the government monitors Wall Street became clear this weekend
when “This American Life” broadcast an investigative story with ProPublica. A regulator was hired at the New York Federal Reserve following the financial collapse. Shocked by what she saw, she started recording conversations at the Federal Reserve with Goldman Sachs,
“
Washington D.C. bent over backwards so far and so fast they broke their back helping the banks.”
the bank she was tasked to oversee. In what Bloomberg columnist Michael Lewis described as “the Ray Rice video for the financial sector,” it is clear just how little the government actually regulates Wall Street. After the post collapse report concluded that there

was a culture of deference to the banks, as well as one where nobody felt secure enough to speak up to their supervisors, the Federal Reserve promised change. The tapes made it clear that this did not happen. In one example, Carmen Segarra, the regulator brave enough to do

what was right, found that Goldman Sachs had no policy on conflicts of interest. This came to light after Goldman was sued for conflict of interest when the energy company El Paso was in talks to be acquired by Kinder Morgan. Goldman held a large stake in El Paso,
and was advising both companies on the merger. One banker also had a $340,000 stake in Kinder Morgan. Segarra did what she was supposed to in standing up to her supervisors who insisted Goldman had a conflict of interest policy. It is clear they were continuing the culture of deferring the better interest of the nation to the banks. She was fired shortly after. Goldman swiftly changed its policy when the tapes came out, and Congress will hold a hearing about the evidence the tapes provide. But don’t expect much to happen. The financial sector has become a revolving door for people leaving Washington D.C., including former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, who recently lost his primary election. Cantor was part of the Congressional leadership that oversaw the bank bailouts.
The supervisor who fired Segarra now works at GE Capital. Each of the last three heads of financial oversight for the U.S.—the Secretary of the Treasury—has worked for Wall Street in their careers. One person in the U.S. had the power to right the wrongs of Wall Street and send a message that executives will be held accountable for their actions. But the deference to Wall Street extends far beyond the Federal Reserve; it penetrates the entire government. Eric Holder thought it more important to prosecute whistle blowers like Edward Snowden than Wall Street frauds. Apparently, in 2014, looking out for the good of the public is the more serious crime.

Students work toward litter-free campus

Britney Thompson, U.S. Green Building Council board member, shows UK freshman Alexis Abdullah and sophomore Allison Hoffman where to collect litter on campus during Green Apple Day of Service Saturday.
UK’s “Pick It Up” campaign to keep campus litter-free and promote stewardship, said Britney Thompson, a board member of the council and UK energy engineer for the physical plant division. The volunteers were provided with trash bags and blue latex gloves before being assigned an area of the campus to begin picking up trash. “I don’t see why people wouldn’t want to volunteer for something like this,” said human health sciences junior Beverly Alexander. “I’m here because this is my campus,” psychology junior Natashia Cheatham said. “I want it to be clean, and I’m sure I’ve littered in the three years that I’ve been here. It’s time to give back.” Communications senior Elizabeth Zoeller, a new student intern for the green building council, said she felt very blessed to be involved.

By Katelyn Dooley news@kykernel.com
Students were caught “blue-handed” this weekend picking up litter for the Green Apple Day of Service Saturday. Ten UK students participated in the third annual international Green Apple Day of Service, held by Green Apple, an international organization that suggests projects like gardening, picking up litter or beginning sustainability projects. “Before this year, we held these events at K-12 schools and churches,” said Chris Tyler, a facilitator on the Kentucky U.S. Green Building Council board. “I think it’s important we do this at UK because, even though it might sound cliché, these are our future leaders. Community involvement and giving back is important. Why not start on campus?” The Kentucky Chapter of the U.S. Green Building Council coordinated the event in conjunction with
backgrounds and academic interests to places where they can make a difference, Zoeller added. Social work junior Ashleigh McCarron also attended with Alexander and Cheatham. “I’m on campus Monday through Friday. It’s nice to have a clean place to walk through,” McCarron said. Biosystems engineering freshman Alexis Abdullah volunteered alone and said her friends poked fun at her when they found out she would be spending her Saturday picking up trash. “Yeah, I’m picking up trash, Abdullah said. “I see all kinds of trash around the cans but not in them. I want to do something about it.” Allison Hoffman, a student sustainability council member and interior design sophomore, said the event promoted thoughtfulness. “College students don’t think about everything they do,” Hoffman said. “Seeing this trash piled up definitely makes me think again.”

some groups still walked in the area during the lockdown. “We encouraged students to stay inside, to take shelter … we can’t force them to do that, we can only encourage them to do that,” Monroe said. Overall, Monroe said students remained indoors during the beginning of the search. He went on to say that student cooperation is an important part of making sure UK Alerts are effective. Blanton said that Monday classes would not be affected by the investigation.

Cats’ defense vital in UK win By Annie Dunbar sports@kykernel.com
The Cats’ defense was the key factor in UK’s 17-7 win against Vanderbilt, its first Southeastern Conference victory in three years. Nicknamed the “Bad Boys,” UK’s defense did not allow the Commodores to reach the endzone, which has become a top goal for the team. “That’s the main goal on defense, the main stat that you look for is to keep them out of the endzone,” said defensive coordinator D.J. Eliot. “You coach for that and you play for that. So that was fantastic that we were able to do that.” The one touchdown that was the result of an interception thrown by UK sophomore quarterback Patrick Towles. In addition to keeping the Commodores’ offense scoreless, the Cats’ defense pounced on freshman quarterback Wade Freebeck. Freebeck was sacked four times and was held to 8-25 for 85 yards. The squad also snagged three interceptions from the young quarterback, which equaled the defense’s total in the previous three games. Eliot said the forced turnovers brought a smile to his face because the team was able to finish plays.
“We’ve been harping on it all season,” Eliot said. “(You have to) take advantage of opportunities to get turnovers. I was very excited about their play.” Junior linebacker Josh Forrest led the team in tackles with six. Sophomore cornerback J.D. Harmon and senior defensive end Bud Dupree were not far behind Forrest with five tackles a piece. Sophomore safety Marcus McWilson also came up big for the Cats with a fourth quarter interception in the red zone. “That was really good for him because that was a little thing that he did within that scheme that made that play,” said head coach Mark Stoops. “Those are the details that we need to continue to work on. It was good for him to have that success, because he’s pressuring unless he gets a certain protection, and then he dropped out, knocked it down and got the pick. Those are little things that we’re executing better.” Overall, the defense held the Commodores to 139 yards, the fewest by an SEC opponent against UK since 1996. Eliot believes that the defense had a sound performance because of their attitude and mentality. “We have great leaders. We’re confident right now, which goes a long way,” Eliot

said. “Attitude and mentality goes a long way in playing good defense.” Stoops called it a thing of “beauty” and was extremely pleased with their performance. “It was a lot of fun,” Stoops said. “I felt like the guys played hard and very hungry, like we talked about
all week. But we were also on point with things, with different shift motions, different pressures that we had to audible to certain sets, and we were on the money. They executed well and played with great desire. You put that together, and you’re always going to have a great chance.”
UK volleyball rolls over USC Senior outside hitter Lauren O’Connor led UK volleyball to a 3-1 win against South Carolina on Sunday. O’Connor had a career-high 22 kills and a career-best .667 attacking percentage. The Cats improved 12-2 overall and 2-0 in the SEC and the Gamecocks dropped to 11-3 overall and 1-1 in SEC play. Junior outside hitter Shelby Workman notched 14 kills and seven digs and junior middle blocker Sara Schwarzwalder reached double figures in the kills column with 10 swings. UK opened the set with a 6-5 lead with two kills from O’Connor and a solo block from Schwarzwalder. The Cats went on a 7-0 run and which brought the score to 13-7. Workman finished the set with a kill and UK won the first set 25-14. The second set began with both teams exchanging points, and the Gamecocks kept the margin within two points for most of the set. Senior libero Jackie Napper added two serving aces to put the Cats within one point of taking the second set, but South Carolina
scored the next three points. It was enough room for the Gamecocks to take the set 25-21. The Cats raced to a 5-1 lead in the third set. Freshman middle blocker Kaz Brown had a kill and shut down the Gamecocks offense with a block. Schwarzwalder stretched the lead with a kill to give UK a 12-6 advantage. The Cats capitalized on the quick start and took the third set 25-17. It was a back-and-forth battle to open the fourth frame, but O’Connor led the Cats to take the lead at 1615. An ace from sophomore outside hitter Anni Thomasson gave UK momentum for O’Connor to notch her 20th kill of the game. The Cats forced the Gamecocks into a hitting error, and O’Connor hammered two more kills to end the set and the match 25-21. UK had a .316 hitting percentage while the Gamecocks hit .228. The Cats will have their Southeastern Conference home opener against Alabama at 7p.m ET on Friday at Memorial Coliseum. STAFF REPORT
Without suspended goalkeeper, Cats complete weekend sweep By Kevin Erpenbeck kerpenbeck@kykernel.com
It was a challenging home weekend series that UK had to win after losing two consecutive overtime games against Pepperdine and Arkansas. The Cats responded to that
challenge winning 2-1 against Auburn on Sunday and 3-0 against Mississippi State on Friday. “Sometimes your back is up against the wall, and you have to find out who you are,” said head coach Jon Lipsitz. “When you fall, the question
is ‘Are you going to continue to fall, or are you going to get up?’ Pepperdine and Arkansas really stung, and we needed to find a way win two games.” Sunday’s match against Auburn proved to be the most competitive match of the weekend, as the Tigers came

into Lexington with a 6-3-1 record. But the Cats remained unfazed, even after seeing their first-half lead against the Tigers last just two minutes. Sophomore forward Jade Klump notched UK’s first goal in the 28th minute after a mad scramble for the ball occurred in the box. But Auburn killed the momentum quickly, scoring on a shot from the top of the box that whizzed by sophomore goalkeeper Ayanna Parker, who was starting in goal for usual starting freshman goalkeeper Taylor Braun. Braun was suspended earlier in the week for violation of team rules. While the freshman was reinstated for Sunday’s match, Lipsitz decided to stick with Parker after she secured a shutout against Mississippi State. Close games got away from UK against Pepperdine and Arkansas. The Cats were not going to let it happen a third time. In the 67th minute, sophomore Zoe Swift broke the tie with a header to secure UK’s victory over the Tigers. “I just saw I had to put it in the goal and do the details
Sluggish Florida State headlines Week 5 By Matt Murschel Orlando Sentinel (MCT)
No. 1 FSU struggled to win, one college coach lost his job and running backs are bumping quarterbacks out of the national spotlight. They headline the list of top 10 things we learned during another action packed college football weekend. 1. This isn't the Florida State of last season. The Seminoles may be undefeated, but they sure don't look unbeatable. The defense is giving up twice as many points and total yards, while turnovers have put FSU on the wrong end of the scoreboard early in games. And yet the 'Noles continue to find ways to survive. 2. The SEC West is about to get real. We're about to find out who the best teams are in the toughest division in college football. Six ranked teams are set to face off against each other next week, including
Texas A&M at Mississippi State, Alabama at Ole Miss and LSU at Auburn. 3. Texas A&M is much more than just offense. The knock on Kevin Sumlin's program has been it's all offensive flash and no defensive substance. That's changed with the Aggies stopping teams late, allowing just 27 secondhalf points in five games. 4. The SEC East is still a mess. The SEC East continues to be anyone's guess right now. Missouri's loss to Indiana last week had everyone writing off the Tigers, but a comefrom-behind win over South Carolina makes Mizzou the favorite heading into next week's battle with Georgia. 5. Is this the year of the running back? Quarterbacks have hogged the national spotlight, but that's about to change thanks to Georgia's Todd Gurley, Wisconsin's Melvin Gordon and Nebraska's Ameer Abdullah. The trio rushed for a combined 597
yards and seven touchdowns in big wins during the weekend. 6. The Charlie Weis Era ends with a thud in Kansas. Weis was supposed to be the big name hire who was going to put the Jayhawks back on the map, but instead the program got lost along the way to the tune of a 6-22 overall record. Kansas fired Weis Sunday, with school officials citing "lack of on-field development." 7. Brady Hoke may not be far behind. Michigan's loss to Minnesota may not have sealed his fate, but his decision to allow quarterback Shane Morris to return to the game after being carted off the field with a possible concussion didn't help his cause. The move was immediately questioned by critics and Hoke had no good answers. 8. Michigan State and Ohio State continue to make their case. Week 2 losses by these two powers had many
knocking the Big Ten out of the four-team College Football Playoff race. The schools will need to build on big offensive showings they delivered during the weekend to impress playoff selection committee members. 9. Is Notre Dame a playoff contender? The Fighting Irish may be 4-0, but their body of work isn't the most impressive— especially as Michigan continues its downward spiral. Some pundits see this team a legitimate contender, but we'll see after showdowns with Stanford and FSU. 10. UCLA is scary when the Bruins are running on all cylinders. For weeks now, we've wondered what is up with UCLA after single-digit wins over Virginia, Memphis and Texas. But Thursday''s 6227 rout over Arizona State was a masterpiece for Jim Mora and company. The Bruins went on an impressive 52-10 run that put the game out of reach for the Sun Devils.
we had been talking about in practice all week,” Swift said. “We had a good practice, and I worked on being more physical, getting low and doing the little things that I had been forgetting. But it’s all coming back to me, and I’m working on continuing to be a difference maker in games.” Friday’s win over Mississippi State was the first SEC win of the season for the Cats. UK attacked early and often against Mississippi State, shooting the ball 19 times with 11 of them being on goal. Senior midfielder Courtney Raetzman scored two goals in the match, including the game’s first goal in the 16th minute. “Honestly, I’m speechless about it,” Raetzman said after the win. “I’ve been waiting for this kind of thing to happen. We’ve been focusing on shooting, scoring and finishing this past week in practice. Finishing has been our big thing. So to get two goals really helps with my confidence, and it feels good to know that all of my hard work has been paying off.”
The defense stepped up to the challenge as well after allowing five goals in the Cats’ previous two games. Parker did not even have to make a single save in the match “She trains so hard every day,” Lipsitz said about Parker. “I said many times that goalkeepers may not be physically exhausted, but they should be mentally exhausted. We train so that every player is ready, and when a player can’t play or isn’t chosen to play, then we say ‘Next,’ and the next player should step up and ready.” After Sunday’s match, UK president Eli Capilouto presented senior captain Arin Gilliland with the Honda Inspiration Award. Gilliland received the award for inspiring her team and her coaches after losing her mother to cancer in 2011. “It’s phenomenal for them to do that for me; to come out here and support me,” Gilliland said. “It’s above and beyond anything that I could have ever imagined. This game means the world to me, and I’m really honored to receive this award.”
