Eighteen teams show-cased their talents at a soldout Singletary CenterWednesday for this year’sStomp-a-palooza.

Performances startedwith Kappa Kappa Gammaand ended with a perform-ance from FIJI. Teamstrained for about four weeksto prepare a four- to seven-minute routine.

Sommerkamp said shehad high expectations forDelta Delta Delta’s routine.

“Last year was my firstyear and it was very scaryand our performance was notvery good,” Sommerkamp

said before the performance.“I think this year will be bet-ter, our theme is differentthan last year and I like itmore.”

This event has been hap-pening annually since 2005.

Throughout the show,tweets were shared from theaudience that expressedopinions on each perform-ance. There was also an in-

Creeley discussesfree speech

with UK students

UK students learnedabout the importance offree speech on collegecampuses Wednesdaywhen Will Creeley, an at-torney with the Foundationfor Individual Rights inEducation (FIRE), spokeat White Hall ClassroomBuilding.

Creeley also held a di-alogue with the students inattendance about progressmade over the years in re-lation to the First Amend-ment.

Creeley feels that theadministration at UK is onthe right track to becominga completely free speechinstitution.

“The University ofKentucky fully recognizesthe importance of the firstamendment, and we lookforward to continuing totalk to the administration,”Creeley said.

The higher educationinstitutions in the Com-monwealth are not far be-hind other states in regardsto free speech, but there’salways room for improve-ment.

“We see harassmentpolicies that are too broad,and internet use policiesthat also impact FirstAmendment rights. Againwe see those at campuses

nationwide and not justhere in Kentucky,” Cree-ley said.

FIRE’s representativehas been successful whileworking with other univer-sities in Kentucky to im-prove First Amendmentregulations. It gives himhope that UK will becomea free speech campus, aswell.

“The attorneys onFIRE’s staff workingwith administrators atEastern to tweak some ofthe policies they had onthe books there to reflecttheir commitment to freespeech and the firstamendment in practice,”Creeley said.

Mathematical econom-ics senior Austin Woods isthe president of the YoungAmericans for Liberty atUK. His organization in-vited Creeley to come andspeak in front of the stu-dents.

The Young Americansfor Liberty has become ac-tive on campus in the pastyear, Woods said.

“We promote civil lib-erties and economic liber-ties so we’re involved withissues like free speech andeconomic freedom,”Woods said.

Calipari must recruitmental toughness

John Calipari is the vil-lain. In the fairy tale ver-

sion ofmoderncollegebasketball,he is thenaggingantagonistthatcreeps un-der every-one’s skin.

It’snot justbecausehe wins.

It’s not just because he’sbrash. It lies in his philos-ophy: His rotational re-cruiting pattern that infuri-ates the conservativemembers of the sport’s ad-mirers.

The national perceptionof the one-and-done philos-ophy in college basketballis largely negative. It isviewed as a black eye on asport that most will say hasseen a dramatic fall inquality in the last 20 years.Calipari didn’t invent it andsays he doesn’t like it. Heis simply its most ferventdisciple.

His 15 NBA draftpicks in three seasons in

Lexington are both hisgreatest talking point andhis critics’ strongest judg-ment.

This season, those crit-ics were in full “I told youso” mode. Even after a na-tional championship, a sea-son ending in an upset lossin the first round of theNIT was proof to some thatthe one-and-done philoso-phy is a mockery.

They said last year’steam was once-in-a-genera-tion and Calipari got lucky,that he can’t consistentlywin with a team comprisedprimarily of 18-year-oldfreshmen.

I don’t agree with that— at least, not entirely.

The 2012 NationalChampionship team wasgreat, perhaps one of thegreatest in UK history. Andwith top recruiting classesflocking to Lexingtonevery season, that team canbe replicated — it maynext season.

There is an inconsisten-cy, though, that lies in theprocess. Calipari’s methodsare risky, but he’s good atwhat he does. He has allbut perfected the system anNBA rule has forced him

UK graduate studentand former basketballplayer Julius Mays visitedchildren in the KentuckyChildren’s Hospital in theprogressive care unitWednesday. Mays metwith the children and pre-sented each of them witha signed mini-basketball.

“Just being able tohave the opportunity isamazing,” Mays said. “Ihave a daughter of myown and to see these kidsin unfortunate situationsthat they weren’t asked tobe in or to see them hereand still fighting for theirlives … it means a lot.”

Mays met with chil-dren like 8-year-old EthanCrawford, who is recover-ing from having hisesophagus removed.Crawford and the otherchildren were excited tosee and talk with Mays.

“To have a little con-versation and tell him hel-lo and show them thatsomeone cares aboutthem — I think it makesthem feel good aboutthemselves and hopefullygives them a little push to

keep fighting,” Mayssaid. “It lets everyoneknow its not just aboutbasketball … but to comeback to the communityand (give back) like thisis great.”

Mays was also askedabout Louisville guardKevin Ware, who brokehis leg in Louisville’sElite 8 matchup withDuke on Sunday.

“You don’t wish thaton anybody whether it’san opposing team or yourteam, someone you evenhate,” Mays said. “My(advice) to him is makesure you do your rehaband keep fighting … staymentally strong and whenthat rough time hits keepon pushing.”

Mays, a graduate stu-dent who transferred fromWright State Universityand played for UK forone season, spoke abouthis future plans after leav-ing Lexington.

“(I am) looking tocontinue to play and testthat and see how it goesand … give it a try and ifit doesn’t go how I want itto I can try to break myway into coaching andcontinue school.”

LOS ANGELES — Ending weeks of gos-sip and speculation, NBC confirmed that JimmyFallon will succeed Jay Leno as host of “TheTonight Show” in the spring of 2014.

Although Leno is still the most-watchedlate-night television host, NBC is making themove because it thinks Fallon will do betterwith younger viewers in the years to come.

This is not the first time NBC has an-nounced a plan to replace Leno. In 2009, NBCput Conan O'Brien in as host of “The TonightShow” only to see ratings decline. Leno quicklywas reinstated as host of the franchise.

People inside NBC are hoping history does-n't repeat itself. Though Leno still delivers solidratings, he is not the force he once was. ABCthis year moved its late night show “JimmyKimmel Live” from after midnight to 11:30p.m. ET and it has started to attract a youngeraudience.

“We are purposefully making this changewhen Jay is No. 1, just as Jay replaced JohnnyCarson when he was No. 1,” said NBCUniver-sal Chief Executive Steve Burke. “Jimmy Fal-

lon is a unique talent and this is his time.”In a statement Leno congratulated Fallon

and said, “I hope you're as lucky as me and holdon to the job until you're the old guy. If youneed me, I'll be at the garage.”

NBC has not determined a specific date forthe switch but Fallon will likely be showcasedduring the network's coverage of the 2014 Win-ter Olympics from Sochi Russia because thereis a potentially large audience available.

A new host will not be the only big changeat “The Tonight Show.” It also will relocate toNew York City when Fallon takes over. “TheTonight Show” moved from New York to LosAngeles more than 40 years ago. LorneMichaels, the executive producer of Fallon'scurrent show, “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon,”will executive-produce “The Tonight Show.”

NBC did not say who would succeed Fal-lon. Some observers think Seth Meyers of “Sat-urday Night Live,” which is also produced byMichaels, may be the leading candidate for thegig.

to utilize. However, he could-n’t avoid what has happenedin 2013.

The one-and-done systemis cyclical. It can producefabulously gifted teams capa-ble of steamrolling amateurcompetition. It can also breedtalented, athletic teams miredin their lofty expectations.This year’s team, of course,was the very definition of thelatter.

The expectations were re-flected by its No. 3 preseasonranking. UK was the reigningnational champion, what’s tosay it can’t just happenagain?

That’s the trap.

Talent can win games.Experience and talent cantake it a little further. But ittakes something extra, a cer-tain mental toughness thatthis year’s Cats never ac-quired. They were met withadversity and, more oftenthan not, couldn’t respondthe way anyone expectedthem to.

And, most importantly,they had nobody to teachthem. There was no DariusMiller, no Josh Harrellsonand no Patrick Patterson.

These freshmen were tal-ented enough for the standardthat has been set at UK thepast five years. They neverbrought the mental fortitudeto showcase it. Calipari pub-licly feared that routinely forfive months.

The system is cyclical,but it skips years. The over-haul of five first-round NBAdraft picks after the 2012championship was a difficultthing to replace. These Catsdidn’t.

The 2010-11 season be-gan in a similar way. Thatteam entered the season withslightly lowered expectationsafter Calipari’s first freshmancrop at UK fled for theirNBA dreams.

But they had upper-class-men leadership and a grittygroup of freshmen thatfought their way to a FinalFour-caliber team by March.

Most UK fans havelearned to have patience withCalipari’s teams. And thatheld true for several monthsuntil this team’s inconsisten-

cy slowly morphed into itsidentity.

He said he tried every-thing to turn the seasonaround, and there’s no rea-son to believe he didn’t. Butwhen all that doesn’t work,and you’ve got the second-best recruiting class inAmerica, fans (especially atUK) will start pointing fin-gers.

The bottom line here ishow this season can alterCalipari’s philosophy. He’sstill going to recruit the besthigh school players in Ameri-ca. Frankly, he would bewrong not to if he is willingand able. How he evaluatesthem, however, shouldchange.

After the Cats’ loss toVanderbilt in the SEC Tour-

nament, he said he wouldn’tchange his approach. “I likethat national title,” he said.

But it’s more complexthan that. He has to strive forconsistency. A national titlecontender is great, but anNCAA play-in game con-tender isn’t quite as illustri-ous.

“We’ve got to be moreprecise,” he said. “There’s acertain toughness that you’vegot to have in this thing …When you don’t have it —you know.”

It’s just one season, yes,but it can happen again. Justlike the title run before it, aseason like this can be repli-cated.

Calipari will recruitsmarter. He will coachsmarter. He’ll look deeper

into his players than theirphysical attributes. Heneeds to find mental tough-ness, not just basketball po-tential.

The consistency of theone-and-done system de-pends on this change. In the-ory, a national championshipbanner will not come everyyear. But as we saw this sea-son, a team capable of suc-ceeding in the NCAA Tour-nament can miss it altogeth-er. The possibility of eitherscenario is the nature of thecycle.

Calipari will always be avillain to the college basket-ball world. There’s no goingback. But if there’s anothertrip to the NIT in his future,UK fans could start seeinghim that way too.

libertarian group, but theyare willing and ready to col-laborate with other political-ly affiliated organizations atUK.

“We are very pragmatic sowe are open to work with Col-lege Democrats and CollegeRepublicans, since we sharesome views with both groups,”Woods said.

Economics senior EvanTindle is the Kentucky StateChair of Young Americans forLiberty.

“I thought it was very in-formative and great,” Tindlesaid.

Tindle saw importance inCreeley’s message in his pres-entation.

“The reason we have theFirst Amendment is so we cantalk about controversial things,and it’s very important thatUK respects those rights,” Tin-dle said.

Tindle also has a positiveoutlook on what progressiveaction UK is looking into tak-ing when it comes to loosen-ing the reins on its FirstAmendment restrictions.

“From what I hear theadministrators seem veryopen to revising UK’s freespeech codes. We were con-cerned when we first started,but when we did our freespeech wall a few days ago,they were very supportive,”Tindle said.

Tindle hopes swift action

can take place with freespeech regulations at UK. Hebelieves it’s necessary to ful-fill what it means to havedemocracy in action at UK.

“Colleges and universitiesare supposed to be placeswhere we have intellectual dis-course,” Tindle said. “Peoplearen’t always going to agreewith each other’s opinions, butif you confine free speech toan area or restrict what peoplecan say then college no longeris a place for learning aboutnew ideas.”

reserved for Honors students,Blanton said.

Central I and II amenitiesCentral I and II will be

built with more space, priva-cy and storage, as well as ad-vanced technology.

Among the new featureswill be Tempur-Pedic beds,individual sink areas and im-proved Wi-Fi.

The new dorms will notreceive Wi-Fi throughResNet, but through a newsystem that has not yet beennamed.

The design of Wi-Fi ac-cess points will be specific tothe number of units in thebuilding and new technologywill provide more speed.

Access cards will be usedto unlock doors, which willeliminate the need for keys.

Penny Cox, housing proj-ect implementation director,is excited about the ActiveLearning Centers being im-

plemented to improve stu-dents’ study habits.

The learning centers willinclude long tables, similar tothe ones in W.T. Young Li-brary, to make group workand collaboration easier, andlounge seating to providemore flexibility.

Cox also believes studentengagement will be improvedby the amphitheater that is tobe built outside in the centerof the buildings, inspired bythe one next to MemorialHall.

Phase IIA: Phase IIA hasalready begun constructionon North and South campusesand will ultimately bring fivedorms to four sites.

According to Blanton,north campus construction ison the land between MartinLuther King Blvd. and Lex-ington Ave., adjacent toRoselle Hall and MemorialColiseum.

Part of construction forPhase IIA has also begun onSouth Campus. New dormsare being built where theCooperstown Apartments for-

merly stood. According toBlanton, most of the complexhas been demolished, butwhat remains will be decom-missioned in June of thisyear.

To complete Phase IIA,Haggin Hall on Central Cam-pus will also be demolishedand a new dorm will be builtin its place, with constructionstarting in May of 2013.

Blanton said Phase IIA isscheduled to be completedfor the Fall semester of 2014,bringing 2,318 new beds tocampus.

Phase IIB: This phase issubject to approval by theBoard of Trustees in May, butis planned to include con-struction where the rest ofCooperstown Apartments,which was once campusgraduate housing, currentlystand.

Long-term goal of housingremodel:

One of the main reasonsfor the large-scale revitaliza-tion of campus is the consis-tent increase of incomingclass size at UK.

“The class size this yearis about 4,500 students andwe are looking at approxi-

mately 4,800 students thiscoming fall,” Blanton said.“We want to accommodatethem and we need the facili-ties to do that and do it well.”

According to the HousingDevelopment plan, UK cur-rently has 22 residence hallson campus that accommodateabout 5,100 students. The av-erage age of the halls is 44years.

Of the nearly 5,100 beds,600 of them are “modern”beds, which are housed in thepremium dorms on campus(Smith, Ingles, Baldwin andRoselle).

“The hope is to ultimatelytear down all but the 600‘modern’ beds and increasethe 5,145 (beds) to between7,500 and 9,000,” Blantonsaid.

The estimated cost of theproject is about $500 million.

“President Eli Capiloutoand the Board of Trustees feelit is very important for stu-dents to live on campus,”Blanton said. “They do better,graduate at higher levels andget involved more easily.That’s one of the reasons whywe want to move so quickly(with this project).”

But giving residentialhousing a facelift does notcome without difficulties.

“One of the challengeswe have as we revitalize thecampus core is that the insti-tution is landlocked,” Blantonsaid. “We have limited spaceto grow and still maintaingreen space on campus.”

For the next five to sevenyears, Blanton calls UK’schallenge to keep as manybeds as possible a “balancingact.”

For this reason, UK hasoutsourced some of its hous-ing to an apartment complex.For the 2013-14 academicyear, UK will have a masterlease agreement with TheRoyal Lexington Apartments,according to Cox. This agree-ment includes 364 more beds.

“Our strategy is to main-tain what we have,” Cox said.“It’s just a matter of doing theplanning and getting newbeds online before old bedsare taken offline.”

Although on-campushousing will include TheRoyal Lexington apartmentcomplex for returning stu-dents, only 500 beds will beguaranteed for returning stu-

dents.The university’s goal is

not to fall below the thresholdof having at least 5,100 bedsavailable at any given timethroughout this remodel.

Cox said that in the fall of2013, with the destruction ofHaggin Hall, the addition ofCentral I and II and The Roy-al Lexington apartments,there will be an increase of425 beds.

Future plans for CentralCampus:

Although Donovan Hallon Central Campus will beused as a residence hall forthe 2013-2014 academicyear, it will be demolished inMay 2014 to make way forthe new 230,000 square footAcademic and Science build-ing.

“This new academicbuilding will be a combina-tion of classrooms and re-search space,” Blanton said.“The provost is currentlylooking at specific utilizationof the space, but it will beboth high tech adaptations ofclassrooms and researchspace.”

Much has been made ofthe new offensive schemethat offensive coordinatorNeal Brown has installed this

Spring. A re-turn to theglorious AirRaid days ofthe HalMumme erahas fans sali-vating.

But,with MarkStoops repu-tation as adefensivecoach, fanscan expect a

newly renovated defense aswell.

Last season, UK finisheda pedestrian 59th in total de-fense, allowing opponents torack up an average of 391yards per game. Even moretroubling was the Cats rankin third down defense: 120th,also known as dead last, al-lowing opponents to convert

on 52.3 percent of thirddowns last season.

A big part of a revitalizeddefense will be the lineback-ing corps. Now that juniorBud Dupree has become afull-time defensive end, oth-ers will have to step up.

That’s where sophomoreKhalid Henderson comes in.

Henderson wasn’t con-cerned when Dupree changedpositions.

“It’s not really a loss forus because on our defenselast year he was kind of astand up end anyway, so theyjust moved him down andput him in a three-pointstance,” he said.

Henderson played in asimilar defense while in highschool, and his experiencehas helped fellow linebackerAvery Williamson adjusttremendously.

“Some of the aspects ofthe game are similar to lastyear, some are different,”Williamson said. “[Khalid] is

helping me out. It’s a lotmore simplified. He canmake some calls and differ-ent things. If I’m not sureabout something he helps meout.”

Fresh off his freshmanyear and learning from a newstaff, Henderson was tenta-tive to be a vocal leader.

“The first week in a halfhe really was [quiet], and Itold him to speak up,”Williamson said. “You got tohelp me out, help me makecall and tell everybody thesignals and different things.He’s really doing a big partin that now. “

New defensive coordina-tor and linebackers coachD.J. Eliot said Hendersondidn’t really have a choicewhether he wanted to fill aleading role or not. The ros-ter necessitated it.

“He was forced into thefire,” Eliot said. “If he wasn’tready for it, it was too bad.He’s taken on the task head

on.”With a built-in knowl-

edge of the defense, Hender-son could blossom into aforce this fall. He’ll be freeto worry less about alignmentand focus more on execution.His instincts can kick in asopposed to second guessinghimself.

And there’s one majordifference between last sea-

son and this one that Hender-son can’t wait to put on dis-play.

“A lot more blitzing, a lotof scheme blitzes,” he said.“I look forward to it. That’smy specialty.”

Henderson and his fellowlinebackers are facing a tallorder. Williamson, as a sen-ior, wants to have a hand ineffecting a culture change in

his final season.“Being my senior year, I

really don’t want to see thatagain, a 2-10 season,” hesaid. “That was horrible. Idon’t want these freshmencoming in to have to experi-ence that either. So it’s a bigchange. It’s on me to make achange in this program andto make this team a lot betterthan it was last year.”

Linebacker play will bekey to improved defense

MINNEAPOLIS _ Atlast, the Minnesota Gophershave found a new headcoach.

The University of Min-nesota confirmed onWednesday that RichardPitino _ son of the leg-endary Rick Pitino _ hasreached an agreement inprinciple to be the Go-phers' next coach in a high-risk, high-reward hire toreplace former coach Tub-by Smith.

Pitino, who led FloridaInternational this season inhis first year of head coach-ing experience, is just 30years old, less than half theage of Smith, and theyoungest of any Minnesotacoach since the Gophers'original basketball coach in1897.

The up-and-comingprospect has already madestops at six different

schools. Pitino was an as-sistant at College ofCharleston, Northeastern,Duquesne, Louisville _working as the top assistantunder his father during the2011-12 season _ and Flori-da before accepting beforeaccepting his position atFIU last year, where he hadsigned a five-year contractwith a base salary of$250,000 a year. Pitino'sbuyout is reportedly also$250,000.

In two years at Florida,Pitino worked under BillyDonovan _ who also hadAnthony Grant and ShakaSmart on his staff _whenTeague originally hiredeach of them for their firsthead coaching positions atVCU.

"I like his pedigree,"former Gophers player andcurrent booster PaulPresthus. "I like the factthat he's learned at the feetof a couple of the leadingcollege coaches today in his

dad and Billy Donovan.Everything that I've heardand been able to check,he's a quality individual,high energy, good re-cruiter."

The terms of the con-tract with Minnesota arestill currently unknown, butPitino will certainly in-crease his FIU salary many-fold.

Pitino compiled an 18-14 record with the GoldenPanthers last season _ FIU'sfirst winning season since1999-2000 _ including an11-9 mark in the Sun BeltConference.

In his short career, Piti-no has gained the reputationof a tireless worker and anactive recruiter _ two quali-ties he will need to employat Minnesota as he inheritsa team that loses TrevorMbakwe and RodneyWilliams for next year, andhas six potentially game-changing recruits combinedin 2014 and 2015 in theuniversity's back yard.

"It's just a shocker thathe left, especially with agreat recruiting class com-ing in as well as some of

the transfers that are goingbe playing for us nextyear like Raymond Taylorand Rakeem Buckles,"senior guard MannyNunez told the Florida In-ternational University Stu-dent Media. "We had oneof the best seasons in FIUhistory and we were goingin the right direction. I'mjust shocked he wouldleave right now."

When the Pitino newsbroke on Wednesday, theGophers' coaching searchwas in its ninth day _ a rel-atively short amount oftime in the grand scheme ofmajor coaching searches.But considering that Min-nesota athletic director Nor-wood Teague and right-hand man Mike Ellis con-ducted the search under-neath a veil of secrecy,some Gophers fans hadstarted to panic.

The fan reception andreaction to the younger Piti-no, however, was immedi-ately overwhelmingly posi-tive.

Teague announced thatMinnesota had fired Smith,who received a buyout of

$2.5 million, on March 25,the day after the Gophersseason ended when theylost to Florida in the NCAAtournament's round of 32.

Six other names wereseriously discussed in con-versation with the Minneso-ta job before Pitino's namesurfaced on Wednesdaymorning, but all were eitherquickly dismissed or nevergained much steam.

The administration wasbelieved to have set itssights on VCU coach ShakaSmart from the outset, butany conversations werequickly squashed whenSmart signed an extensionwith the Rams. Iowa State'sFred Hoiberg, Butler's BradStevens, Cincinnati's MickCronin, Florida GulfCoast's Andy Enfield andformer Gopher and Timbe-wolves coach, currentESPN analyst Flip Saun-ders were all reportedlycontacted by Minnesota.Saunders, Cronin andStevens reportedly de-clined, while Hoiberg, likeSmart, agreed to an exten-sion with his current school,Iowa State.

Quick question to all of you sports fanatics: What is theoldest sport known to mankind?

If you guessed baseball,basketball or American foot-ball, sorry to break it to youbut you aren't even in theballpark (no pun intended).

If you guessed running,swimming or throwing largeobjects, close but no cigar.

The oldest sport know tohumans is the rugged, grinding

sport of wrestling. This sport is full of history and culture.Countries all over the world practice different forms ofwrestling.

Some of history's most important people were champions

at the sport, including the Greek conqueror Alexander theGreat, Muhammad the founder of Islam, and our very own leg-endary U.S President Theodore Roosevelt.

It is a sport that breaks down cultural barriers, with com-petitors from all corners of the globe being able to square offagainst one another — a claim that not all sports can make.With all this in mind, it is crazy to think that the UK does nothave a wrestling program. After all, who could be more of ascrappy wrestler than a wildcat?

UK is a D-1 school with 19 varsity teams. Addingwrestling as a varsity program would bring new opportunitiesfor many young students, as more scholarships could be givenout, and more students would have a better chance at receiv-ing an above-adequate education.

Most college wrestling teams have between 10 to 20 ath-letes, so there is 10 to 20 lives that could be positively affected

every year by instating a wrestling program.As always, the students aren't the only ones who can bene-

fit. There are coaching and staff opportunities, potential for ex-tra revenue if the wrestling matches can draw a significant fanbase and of course the chance for the gold.

If there is one thing UK is known for it's loving winning.UK has eight national basketball titles to back up that claim.

I hope I am appealing to the competitive nature of the BigBlue Nation, as many of you loyal fans are probably saying inyour head, “If UK had a wrestling team, we could win four,five or six in a row!”

That competitive spirit, the scholarship and job opportuni-ties and the potential for the university are all reasons that UKshould add wrestling to it's list of varsity athletic teams.

Brian Davis and DavidAdam Byrnes will performFriday at 7:30 p.m. in theKappa Kappa Jamma benefitconcert at Memorial Hall puton by the Kappa Kappa Gam-ma sorority for Holly’sHouse.

Holly’s House is based inIndiana and is a safe housefor victims of domestic vio-lence to stay and to open upabout their terrible experi-ences.

Co-founder of Holly’sHouse Holly Dunn Pendletonwas the only survivor of theso-called Railroad Killer, aserial killer linked to at least15 murders.

Kappa Kappa Gamma ishosting the concert to raiseawareness and funds for thecharity and is open to thepublic, said Maureen Neal,Kappa Kappa Gamma phi-lanthropy chair and commu-nity communications andleadership developmentsophomore.

“They’re just going toplay some country music andit’s going to be fun … It’s go-ing to be family-friendly; youcan bring your grandparents,you can bring a little sibling,”said Lindsey Steller, Kappa

Kappa Gamma president andSpanish junior.

“We’re just trying to pro-mote Holly’s House as muchas we can,” Steller said.

Kappa Kappa Gammamembers know Holly’s story.She came to talk to membersa few years ago, and theyounger members have seen a60 Minutes feature on her.Steller is in charge of makingsure the girls involved withthe event keep the point ofthe concert in mind and focuson the bigger picture—pro-tecting victims of domesticviolence.

“It’s going to be fun andentertaining and it’s carefree.It’s also about giving back tothe community; it’s aboutsomething bigger than us,”Steller said.

The charity aims to helpthose affected by domestic vi-olence deal with their trau-mas.

“They can stay there and

(the volunteers) help themthrough the healing process,”Steller said.

The concert was chosenas the philanthropy event as“a fun way to incorporate thestudent body with what we doevery spring,” said HaleyAbrams, a kinesiology sopho-more and Kappa Kappa Gam-ma member.

“We knew that he (BrianDavis) really liked UK’scampus; that’s part of the rea-son he wanted to come back,”Abrams said.

Kappa Kappa Gammaworked together to bringAbrams’ idea into reality.

All ticket proceeds, aswell as 10 percent of all mer-chandise sales, will go direct-ly to benefit Holly’s House.Tickets are currently availablein the ticket office of the Stu-dent Center up until 8 p.m.Friday. Tickets sold in ad-vance are $7 and tickets at thedoor will be $10.
