Students, faculty and alumni tookthe stage together in the openingweekend of “August: Osage County.”

The play is about a family in disar-ray with more secrets than they cankeep up with.

When a family member goes miss-ing, the rest of the family is thrown to-gether in a cramped house beingforced to communicate.

“Usually (the Department of The-atre) spends time with the oldershows,” Elizabeth Greenfield, assistantstage manager, said. “This is one of thenewer plays, so the audience responsewas unprecedented.”

The actors did a tremendous jobkeeping in character. When the role re-quired the actor to smoke a cigarette,the actor was smoking a cigarette noteven ten feet from the audience.

The detail in the set design wasthe most important aspect of the play.The television was plugged into thecable so that when the actor had toturn on the television, it was actuallyon.

When the family was sitting downfor dinner, the audience could actuallysmell the food they were eating.

VIP Center takes part in‘Take Back the Night’

Whether it’s in the form of a poster,sweatshirt being worn or pin on a back-pack, one can’t go far on UK’s campuswithout seeing one of the VIP Center’sgreen dots floating around.

The VIP Center is always workingto fight power-based personal violenceand make UK’s campus one of thesafest in the country.

Later this month, the VIP Center is

taking part in a national movementcalled “Take Back The Night.” As partof the rally, this week the VIP Center ishosting a photo campaign.

Students are encouraged to come inand get their picture taken to showtheir support against power-based per-sonal violence.

Gretchen Gruenberg, the studentdirector at the VIP Center, came upwith the idea for a photo campaign.She said she wanted to create aware-ness and have something to show atthe rally in March.

Gruenberg’s idea for a photo cam-paign was inspired by the “Real MenDon’t Buy Girls” campaign, which wasco-founded by Ashton Kutcher andDemi Moore.

“The one-in-three statistic is unac-ceptable,” Gruenberg said. “I want tomake this campus a safe place for myfriends.”

Gruenberg, a communications andInterstrategic Communications senior,is in her second year as student direc-tor.

Senior Josh Nadzam has participat-ed in the rally for the past two years.“‘Take Back The Night’ reminds usthat we can all play a role in stoppingintimate partner violence,” he said.“Overall, ‘Take Back The Night’ is avery powerful, moving event that Iwould encourage everyone to attend.”

REASON TO WATCH: Terrific new serieswith Jason Isaacs, Lucious Malfoy from the“Harry Potter” movies, as a cop with vividdreams.

WHAT IT’S ABOUT: LAPD detectiveMichael Britten (Isaacs) is involved in a terri-ble car accident that killed either his wife,Hannah (Laura Allen, “Terriers”), or 15-year-old son Rex (Dylan Minnette).

Which one? Beats Michael, because he isnow living two separate realities one in whichhis wife is alive, another his son. In fact, onemay be real, the other simply a very luciddream. He has shrinks in each realm Dr. Evans(Cherry Jones) and Dr. Lee (BD Wong) tryingto convince him that their world is real and theother but a dream. And he has partners in eachIsaiah “Bird” Freeman (Steve Harris, “ThePractice”) and Efrem Vega (Wilmer Valderra-ma, “That ‘70s Show”) who are just about asbewildered as you are right now. Michael, yousee, uses clues or leads from one realm (ordream) to solve crimes in the other.

MY SAY: The ancient Chinese philoso-pher Zhuangzi once famously awoke, uncer-tain whether he had just dreamed he was a

butterfly or whether he was at that moment abutterfly dreaming he was a man. And if poorol’ Zhuangzi couldn’t figure that one out, whathope is there for Michael Britten, or viewers,who also will be a bit befuddled at times?

NBC, in fact, pulled this one off the shelfa few months ago to (probably) work out thatvery problem; after all, not many cop procedu-rals are so deeply rooted in Eastern philoso-phy, Cartesian thought puzzles, or “The Ma-trix.” But the results are promising. Well act-ed, smartly written and cleverly stitched to-gether, “Awake” works on many levels bothintellectual and emotional.

Foremost, it’s a puzzle you are meant towork on just as much as Britten does. Plus, hisbereavement and predicament are heartbreak-ing. He is a man who refuses to resolve hisdilemma who is alive? who is dead? becausehe can’t bear to know.

BOTTOM LINE: Yup, the story can bedownbeat, the pace at times languid. But thisis a show with a brain and a heart. NBC final-ly has quality back on Thursday night at 10EST.

ly dinners,” Greenfield said.The audience physically tensed up when the

drama unfolded, and that in and of itself provedthe engagement of the audience.

“The performance was thrilling and manyfolks are saying it was the best play they haveseen on the Guignol stage,” Nancy Jones, chair-man of the Department of Theatre, said. “We soldout every show.”

The cast looked as if they have really growninto the parts they play. The audience could relateto the characters within the play.

“We had to learn how to become our charac-ters, physically and mentally,” Michael Sheehy,student actor playing Bill Fordham, said. “It isdefinitely a bridge each of us had to cross.”

The first weekend of “August: Osage County”was a success, bringing in alumni, professors andstudents together to celebrate the Department ofTheatre’s accomplishments.

“We were all really excited that both youngerand older audiences enjoyed the show; they wereall responding with laughter, etc. It makes every-thing worth it,” Greenfield said. “They even toldme that they have never wanted intermission to beshorter.”

the world,” junior Vinh Vu said. “By eatingthis food, we know more about the culture,and from that we learn.”

North African lamb, Swedish meatballsand Mediterranean baklava were just a few ofthe foreign foods served.

“I love the flags and the students in nativedress,” Dean said. “I think the variety of thefood and planning is really great.”

For the twenty-third year in a row Taste ofOur World had a successful turnout, even if itwas a slightly indecisive turnout.

UK’s starters are expected to changefrom the usual lineup.

Both senior guard Darius Miller andsenior forward Eloy Vargas are expected tostart and play as often as possible in UK’sgame against Georgia.

“I’m going to try to play (Vargas) asmany minutes as I can,” head coach JohnCalipari said, “which is what I always dowith the seniors on senior night.”

While Vargas hasn’t had much playingtime in his second season at UK, he has con-tributed for the Cats in crucial moments.

But it doesn’t bother Vargas that hedoesn’t play much.

“I’m good because every time we win,everybody wins,” Vargas said. “It’s Ken-tucky and this is a family. It’s not about self,it’s about us.”

Last season he played behind the bloom-ing Josh Harrellson, while this year he’sbeen forced to wait his turn again behindfreshman forward Anthony Davis.

“We’re not getting to see him,” Caliparisaid, “because he’s playing behind the spi-der-man (Davis) there.”

But Vargas looked back on his experi-ences of being a Cat as the end of the regu-

lar season approaches.“It’s been great to be here in this pro-

gram and being in Kentucky,” Vargas said.“It’s the best program in the world right nowin college. So being a part of this programhas been tremendous.”

The Kernel EditorialBoard sat down with UKPresident Eli Capilouto for aQ-and-A. Here are selectionsof his responses.

Q: You’ve made a com-mitment to the undergraduateexperience on campus.What’s next in this endeavor?

A: We’re working to ex-pand and improve our honorsexperience. We also want toexpand scholarships, livinglearning communities such asA&S Wired, and other inno-vations.

Q: The Board of Trusteespassed Phase I of the priva-tized housing plan. When canwe expect it to considerPhase II (in which almost allof UK’s dorms would betransferred to Education Re-alty Trust)?

A: I want to move as rap-idly as possible because wehave severe excess demandfor housing. We need the ap-proval of this by the GeneralAssembly … by April.

Q: What feedback haveyou heard on the housingplan, both positive and nega-tive?

A: It’s mostly been posi-tive.

But the way this is struc-tured we are paying propertytaxes. But it’s still cheaperthan doing it (building) our-selves. To address anotherconcern, the historic dormsare staying.

Q: How will the statebudget cuts affect UK?

A: I do regret the cuts.Dealing with expenditures inour state is still very chal-lenging (since the recession).

Some states are bouncingback, but we don’t have theluxury here yet. Continuedstate budget cuts do put pres-sure on tuition.

Q: Regarding the StudentForum held last Wednesday,what concerns were ad-dressed that are now on yourradar (such as accessibilityon campus)?

A: I had heard about ad-vising before. I think we needto take a closer look at that.

In regard to accessibility,some areas, such as the quad,are not handicap accessible.Installing elevators in someof these older buildingswould be enormously expen-sive. We’re making sure ournew facilities are accessible.

Q: The last administra-tion focused heavily on theTop 20 Business Plan. Are

you focused on that?A: The best way to ad-

vance our rankings is to en-hance the undergraduate ex-perience. Graduation ratesare consistently used as ameasure. All the things we’redoing will move those meas-ures, but we’re doing it forthe right reasons. We want toput students first, not just goup in the rankings. We havea responsibility to the Gener-al Assembly, but we’veadded some additional pathsfor getting there.

Q: UK has been rankedlow in diversity. You camefrom Alabama, which has atumultuous history with di-versity. How do you plan toimprove diversity here?

A: I think increasing thenumber of minority groups,more international students

and more black faculty areall example of progress. I’veasked (Vice President for In-stitutional Diversity) J.J.Jackson to work with me onenhancing programs. We’vetaken some very good steps.I would like to continue thatmomentum.

Q: When it comes to im-plementing changes at UK,did you think of it as a blankslate or how did you build onwhat was already here?

A: I never looked at it asa blank slate, and I think if Idid it would be a disserviceto the people here who havemade things happen. Nobodycould tell you one personmade all that possible. Greatthings are going on here oncampus.

Q: What do you think ofKentucky overall?

A: We’ve been prettyhonest with ourselves in de-veloping systems of account-ability.

It’s always about people.People are great. It’s prettyneat to re-pot yourself andhave a positive experience.

Q: What has been yourbiggest challenge as presi-dent so far?

A: Beating Tennessee. Idid in one semester whathadn’t been done in 26 years.

Q: But beside that?It’s been hard consuming

so much information and somuch history so quickly.

Q: If you turn on youriPod, what are the first threesongs you see?

A: 1. “Empire State ofMind,” 2. “All I Do Is Win,”3. “Sandstorm (Radio Edit).”

It’s my exercise mix.

A former UK professorand current president of theCatholic University of Ameri-ca, John Garvey, will be dis-cussing religion and academ-ics on Friday.

The speech on “Religionand Academic Freedom,” willbe at 7 p.m. in the UK CollegeOf Law Courtroom.

“He is coming back as adistinguished speaker to speakto the people of Lexington,”Roger Teague, the NewmanFoundation president, said.

Garvey taught law at UKfrom 1976 until 1994.

Teague said he met Gar-vey when he taught at UK be-cause they both were membersof the Newman Center, theCatholic student center on

campus.Garvey graduated from

Notre Dame and later went onto Harvard Law School andHarvard Divinity School. Hehas been a professor at numer-ous universities around the na-tion, and is a former dean ofthe Boston College LawSchool.

He is the third lay presi-dent of Catholic University ofAmerica, meaning he isn’t apart of the clergy. It is the na-tional university of theCatholic church, located inWashington, D.C., accordingto the university’s website.

“The interesting part is we,as human beings, are alwaysbeing challenged,” Teaguesaid.

Garvey is known forspeaking about “the role of re-ligion in his professional and

personal life and admits thatsuch openness about religionmight be unusual in America,”according to the Catholic uni-versity’s website.

In a recent Chicago Trib-une article, Garvey wroteabout the same topic.

“In a society so heavilyregulated, the only practicalway to protect religious free-dom is to carve out exemp-tions from the laws for peo-ple who have strong objec-tions,” he wrote in the arti-cle.

Jessica Millard Hartman,executive director of the New-man Foundation, said she can’twait to see him.

“He’s coming to UK toreconnect with his friends atthe Newman Center and alsohis friends at the College ofLaw,” Teague said.

UK students are invited to“occupy” a panel discussionhosted by UK Diversity Edu-cation and Community Build-ing on Thursday that exam-ines the ubiquitous socialmovement that began withOccupy Wall Street.

The event, held in room206 of the Student Centerfrom 4-6 p.m., will facilitatediscussion about the OccupyMovement in a way that is rel-evant to college students, in-cluding conversations con-cerning tuition inflation andliving in a weakened economy.

According to DE&CBStudent Coordinator AnnalisaAbell, organizations and indi-viduals in attendance includethe Center for CommunityOutreach, UK Kentuckiansfor the Commonwealth, Blue-

grass Community and Techni-cal College, Occupy Lexing-ton and UK political scienceprofessor emeritus HerbertReid.

Panelists will discuss theirexperiences with the OccupyMovement, Abell said.

“Students should attendthis event to become aware ofan existing social move-ment,” she said. “The eventwill help them realize that adegree does not guarantee ajob, and how many partici-pants in the Occupy Move-ment are jobless graduates.”

DE&CB, a group startedin 2009 by the Office for In-stitutional Diversity and Of-fice of Student Involvementto promote diversity on cam-pus, is conducting this paneldiscussion as part of its “Planof Action Series.”

The series is an extensionof the “Diversity in Leader-

ship Series,” which was a fallworkshop series that promot-ed skills to deal with socialjustice issues, said DE&CBgraduate assistant RobertOdom.

“Social justice work is animperative in our larger goalof making UK a safe, wel-coming community for stu-dents of difference, regardlessof color, culture, gender, sex-ual orientation, abilities, ageor geographical region,”Odom said in an email to theKernel. “Our workshop anddiscussion series are how weprepare students for thiswork.”

Attendants who were ableto RSVP for the event before-hand will receive dinner and acopy of the book “ThisChanges Everything: OccupyWall Street and the 99%Movement,” edited by Sarahvan Gelder.

Darius Miller swears he won’t cry. Not because he might not want to.

Because he refuses to.“I don’t think I can

just let it out even if Iwant to,” Miller said.“If I want to or feel I’mabout to, I’m just goingto suck it up.”

Miller said this,dry-eyed, standing infront of a podium in thepractice gym he’s in-habited for the past fouryears.

The first year wasthe worst. UK ended upin the NIT under Billy

Gillispie, who Miller said he hasn’t talkedto since that season.

“My freshman year was kind ofrough, as you all know,” Miller said.

By his second season, his practicegym experience had changed drastically.In came head coach John Calipari. At thetime, Miller was worried about whetherhe would have a place on a Calipari-coached team.

Unknown to him, though, Caliparithought he was the best player in thegym. He liked Miller’s skill set, unpol-ished as it was, and saw his potential tofit into his system.

So Miller stuck around, and — al-though he didn’t play a major role —was in the Elite Eight a year after beingrelegated to a second-tier postseason tour-nament.

“From my freshman year to my soph-omore year were opposites,” Miller said.

“I’m happy we changed it so fast.”Since then, Miller and UK have

stayed on that high. He hasn’t lost inRupp Arena since that first year. He wasthe Cats’ key player down the stretch lastseason, culminating in being named theMVP of the SEC Tournament and help-ing UK to a Final Four berth.

And now, Miller’s a vital player on ateam projected to go even further thanthat.

The lone four-year senior on UK’sroster operates as the “glue guy” on theteam, a stabilizing influence as the guywho’s experienced double what anyoneelse has. He’s played in 141 games atUK, 74 more than the player with thesecond-most appearances in a UK uni-form (Doron Lamb).

During his time, 38 other playershave appeared on official team rosterswith him. Nine former teammates arenow in the NBA, and a few more fromthis year’s team are likely to follow.

That makes him the designated oldman on the team.

He may be older than his youngteammates, but he’s still a college kid.

“I’m not in any way part of Team NoSleep,” Miller said, referencing his team-mates’ informal group. “I actually lovesleep and I would like to do it all thetime.”

Miller’s now closing in on the end ofhis career. He’s accumulated 1,139points, 458 rebounds, 258 assists, 104steals and 95 blocks — which is just atouch shy of his dad’s goals.

“My father’s always wanted me toscore 100, get 100 rebounds, have 100assists,” Miller said. “He’s always hadhigh expectations. Whose dad doesn’t?”

Maybe Miller didn’t average a triple-triple.

Miller talks about senior night

Head coach Rachel Law-son’s UK softball team willgo on the road for the fourth-straight weekend to start theseason, visiting Lafayette,La., to participate in the Ra-gin’ Cajuns’ Invitational start-ing Friday.

The Cats won three-of-four games in the GeorgiaSouthern Invitational lastweekend to improve to 7-6 onthe season.

Finding offensive produc-tion wasn’t much of a prob-lem for them either after scor-ing eight runs on North Flori-da and nine against Radford;their highest run productionof the season.

UK’s ability to shut down

opponents on defense can beattributed to its pitching staff,which senior Brittany Cer-vantes said was a stress re-liever for those on offense tohave.

Another UK batter feelingthe effects of strong outingsby her pitching staff is juniorKara Dill.

Her 10 game hittingstreak will be put to the teststarting with the Texas A&MUniversity Corpus Christi Is-landers at 2:30 p.m. Easterntime.

The Islanders are 2-7 onthe season with wins overNorth Texas and a UK South-eastern Conference foe, OleMiss.

Games two and threewill pit UK against StephenF. Austin, which holds a 5-10record.

UK senior Chanda Bell’s0.73 ERA could be put to useduring the Saturday double-header. After taking onStephen F. Austin, UK willplay against its third teamranked in theESPN.COM/USA SoftballCollegiate Top 25.

Saturday’s 2 p.m. gamewill be against tournamenthost, No. 12 University ofLouisiana Lafayette. The Ra-gin Cajuns are 12-0 on theseason and opened the seasonby outscoring their opponentsby at least nine runs in six of

seven games, including threeshutouts.

The second game of theseason for the Ragin Cajuns,against then top 25 Tulsa, re-sulted in a sixth inning mercyrule for a 19-4 win.

The Ragin Cajuns alsowent on to knock off No. 15Michigan on February 25 —one weekend after theWolverines shut out the Cats,3-0.

The tournament will con-clude for UK on Sunday withan 11:00 a.m. Eastern timemeeting with the 4-11Nicholls State UniversityColonels.
