Getting Ready for the Roses Request for Buck denied Administration says report is incomplete BY JAME VWSON AND JAOWTA FEIOMAN News writers University Council Kacey Coleman denied an open record request filed by The Eastern Progress last Thursday for a copy of the Buck Study, which University President Robert Kustra quoted during open budget forums held last week. In a letter, Coleman said, "at this time the University has not received any final report from Buck Consultants relative to the study commissioned by the University. Preliminary data relative to portions of the total survey to be conduct- ed have been received by the University; however, no final report has been issued by Buck or received by the University." She said under Kentucky Revised Statutes 61.878 (h). the preliminary infor- mation is not open. The Buck Study was done to deter- mine more competitive pay rates for clas- sified employee staff. Kustra told employ- ees at open forums Tfrld last week to dis- cuss the budget the school received from the General Assembly that the study said it would take $1.4 million to raise salaries to a level where they should be. Doug Whitlock, vice president of Corey Wilson/Progress administration and finance, said Kustra was under the impression the Buck Horses fly down the home stretch during an earty race at Churchill Downs on opening day, Saturday.

The number of people that deserve my thanks, respect, and unending gratitude is very long, and I can only begin to note everyone that garnered my appreciation. In the course of my research I spoke with hundreds of people involved in transboundary conservation. The southern African conservation community took me in and made me welcome. They answered my questions in spite of my ignorance and lack of experience on the subject. The park staff of Botswana’s Department of Wildlife and National Parks, of DNAC in Mozambique, and SANParks of South Africa made me feel welcome and spent a tremendous amount of time with me.

First published in the September 1874 issue of The Atlantic Monthly and subsequently reprinted in Castle Nowhere: Lake-Country Sketches (1875). The Lady of Little Fishing CONSTANCE FENIMORE WOOLSON t was an island in Lake Superior . I I beached my canoe there about four o’clock in the af- ternoon, for the wind was against me and a high sea running . The late summer of 1850, and I was coasting along the south shore of the great lake, hunting, fishing, and camping on the beach, under the delusion that in that way I was living “close to the great heart of nature,” — whatever that may mean . Lord Bacon got up the phrase; I suppose he knew . Pulling the boat high and dry on the sand with the comfortable reflection that here were no tides to disturb her with their goings- out and comings- in, I strolled through the woods on a tour of explo- ration, expecting to find bluebells, Indian pipes, juniper rings, perhaps a few agates along-shore, possibly a bird or two for company . I found a town . It was deserted; but none the less a town, with three streets, residences, a meeting- house, gardens, a little park, and an at- tempt at a fountain . Ruins are rare in the New World; I took off my hat . “Hail, homes of the past!” I said . (I cultivated the habit of thinking aloud when I was living close to the great heart of nature .) “A human voice resounds through your arches” (there were no arches, — logs won’t arch; but never mind) “once more, a human hand touches your venerable walls, a human foot presses your deserted hearth- stones ”.
