PHOTO BY TESSA LIGHTY | STAFFMary Katherine Kington and Stephen Bilas were elected to Student Governmentvice president and president, respectively, in March.

Now in chargePresident-elect ready tolead campus next year

Stephen Bilas, a business management andfinance junior, will be the 2012-13 student bodypresident, with Mary Katherine Kington as hisvice president.

He became involved with Student Govern-ment his freshman year and has held severalleadership positions on campus. Bilas discussedhis goals for next year, his involvement on cam-pus and his life outside of Student Government.

Q: As next year’s student body president,what are your goals for the university?A: From a Student Government standpoint, I

want to put together the right people in the rightpositions.

This will be my last year at UK and I wantto make sure this administration leaves UK inthe right hands. We can only do so much and wecould do the greatest job, but if we leave it topeople who are unprepared then that is all lost.

We want to see some sort of teacher ac-countability system in place, kind of like RateMy Professor, but credible. We want to matchthe intentions and expectations of teachers to thestudents. Not everybody operates in the samefashion in terms of scholastic achievement andsome people have different expectations. It’s notan attempt to find the easiest classes, but to seewho the best teachers are for my needs. We feellike a lot of administrations tried to implementthis, but it wasn’t their main focus. It was kindof put on the back burner.

As for the Board of Trustees, I want to openthe lines of communication so it’s not just me

For most students, balancing classes, workand a social life is enough to worry about.

While most are dealing with relationshipswith friends and significant others, fewer areactually married.

Though getting married in college isn’ttoo common, more and more students are tak-ing on the responsibility of starting a familyearly.

Though the average marriage age is 28,about 18 percent of undergraduates reportedthey were married, according to the NationalCenter for Education Statistics, which surveyed20,928 undergraduates in 2008.

Crystal Neace, psychology junior, marriedher husband almost a year ago on May 21,2011.

“I don’t think I am too young to get mar-ried. Most (of my) friends and family’s mainissue was the fact that we were still in school,”Neace said.

Neace said it is tough being a student whilebeing married.

“The biggest challenge, in my opinion, isthat I feel like I don’t get to see or spend timewith my husband as much as I would like to,since we’re both so busy with school,” shesaid.

Emily Meier is a biology senior whobecame engaged in May.

“There were definitely some people that Iknew that were at first concerned, but all of myclose friends and family have been very sup-portive,” Meier said.

Not everyone wants to wait to graduate toget married, but Meier said she is willing to.

“I know that it would be very hard to man-age being in school and being married,” shesaid.

Neace said she thinks it’s becoming morecommon for students to get married “becauseit’s easier to get married while you’re still inschool than it is to wait.”

She had planned on finishing school first.“But you find out that it makes more sense

STEPHEN BILAS, STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT-ELECT

I know (at least)five UK underclass-men who will be muchricher and much moresuccessful than I willever be, starting now:Anthony Davis,Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, TerrenceJones, Marquis Teague,Doron Lamb.

They are allyounger than me.

This is the way itworks when you’re a college basketballstar and I’m a guy who covers collegebasketball stars.

This is why Anthony Davis is plan-

This is why Lamb gets interruptedduring meals around town and why Icould sit down in the middle of Willy T.with a pizza and receive only stares ofconfusion, not recognition.

ST. LOUIS — To tweak an old saying, EricChurch is singing in tall cotton.

The New York Times last month highlight-ed the country singer-songwriter as one of thebrightest lights in country’s latest “outlaw”movement.

This year, his third and latest album,“Chief,” was nominated for a Grammy as bestcountry album and earned glowing reviewsfrom Rolling Stone, Spin, Entertainment Week-ly and National Public Radio.

And after years of opening for other artists,he is headlining a national tour, “Blood, Sweat& Beers.”

“It’s been crazy, exceeding any expectationswe had,” Church said. “We spent a lot of timeplaying clubs, bars, dives. And now, we’re fill-ing up arenas of ten, fifteen thousand. And be-lieve me, it’s not lost on us, how rare and spe-cial that is.”

Church’s live performances are noted fortheir rock-concert energy, something in whichthe North Carolinian takes pride.

“We aim to empty the tank every night,”said Church, 34. “We made our mark by play-ing like that in those bars and clubs. And whenwe’d come back to a town, we’d need a biggervenue because of word of mouth about our lastshow.”

While Church’s songs are country at thecore, danger lurks for those waiting to pigeon-hole his work. Church, who has a marketing de-gree from Appalachian State and a Southerner’s

love for college football and William Faulkner,embraces rock ‘n’ roll with a tight grip.

“When I was a teen driving around listeningto music, it was AC/DC and Iron Maiden,” hesaid. “It was (AC/DC guitarist) Angus Youngand three-chord rock.”

Church said he’s interested to see how rapand hip-hop will influence country music in thenext few years.

“Country music is more than yee-hahs andhay bales,” he said, noting that the genre isdrawing more young people. “Now, it’s cool tobe a country artist and roll onto a college cam-pus. … That used to be a place where kidswouldn’t be caught dead listening to countrymusic.”

Getting that mind-set past the country es-tablishment was tough. He said some execu-tives and radio stations “hit me pretty hard”for a song from his second album, “Carolina,”that speaks of marijuana: “Smoke a LittleSmoke.”

“Some stations wouldn’t play it, and somesaid it was career suicide,” Church said. “Butthen I’d play the song in concert, and thecrowds would tear the place down. I’m glad Istuck to my guns, because that’s what led us towhere we are. And I think that’s why ‘Chief’has been so successful.

“I never talk to the label. We send in thesongs and, if they don’t like it, I don’t reallycare. That’s the album we’re making.”

making decisions. I want to connect withother people in SG and other people who areinterested.

I want to have an open-door policy be-cause at the end of the day, I will have tomake a vote and I want as much informationso I can represent everyone instead of justone person.

Q: What inspired you to run for SG pres-ident?

A: It was a long, drawn out decision. Itwas always in the back of my mind. I re-member sitting at freshman orientation inMemorial Hall and listening to the studentbody president talk. I went back and forthwondering if it is something I wanted to do.

When the decision came, I thought MaryKatherine Kington and I would do well. It’snot the two people at the top, but who theysurround themselves with. I felt like I couldput together a group of people, not just jun-iors and seniors, but new upcoming studentswho can hold higher positions and reallybenefit.

I am really passionate about serving oth-ers. You have to give up your life for a year,but I know the benefits of working hard for

this position.

Q: Aside from Student Government, whatdo you do for fun?

A: I am very involved in several otherorganizations. If you stay just in SG, youlimit yourself. The important thing I stress tofreshmen is you have to be involved. It does-n’t matter where or with who. Once you getinvolved, the campus turns into a tinier,home base of networks and you feel more athome.

I joined Sigma Chi and held several lead-ership roles, worked on DanceBlue corporatecommittee and helped raise record numbers.It was such a great feeling.

I started right away in SEAM — Schol-ars of Engineering and Management. It’s agreat opportunity and great program to getinvolved on campus. It instilled in me theidea of getting involved.

I just like staying active. I played golf inhigh school and try to play as much as I canthroughout the year. And no one can say noto Keeneland.

If there is an event on campus, I try mybest to experience it. Now is the time to ex-perience different things, so why waste it?

The only thing I dislike hearing peoplesay is that they want to get their feet settledbefore getting involved. I am a junior andmy feet aren’t settled. I am still a little nerv-

ous.

Q: Do you think President Eli Capiloutowas a good choice to represent the universi-ty?

A: I couldn’t be happier with the newpresident and the work he has done.

I am excited to work on a higher leveland on a regular basis with him. I have spo-ken to other universities and the willingnessto cooperate with the president isn’t alwaysthere.

It’s interesting the amount he is going tobe able to accomplish if given the opportuni-ty. He already broke new ground for a newdorm in under a year. He works tirelessly tofigure out ways to benefit students and hasbeen a positive example to me.

He doesn’t have a hidden agenda, whichis rare. He is very clear and thinks realistical-ly and constructively. I am interested to see,going forward, how he interacts with certainthings.

It’s a tough position to hold, especially ina year when UK is making a $20 millionbudget cut, with a $45 million deficit whenhe is trying to build.

At the same time, he is trying to breakeven but have the university play catch up. Itis very difficult, and he is working tirelesslyto make this place better. I will do my best tohelp him.

financially for both of you to get marriedwhile still in school, and it’s a lot harder tostick to waiting until you finish schoolwhen you find the person you want tospend the rest of your life with,” Neacesaid.

Unlike Neace, Meier said she thinksfewer students are getting married.

“I think it is definitely becoming lesscommon because many students want tostart their career and be stable themselvesbefore they bring someone else into theirlife,” she said.

Meier said she doesn’t know too manystudents who are married, but she has had afew classes with fellow married students.

Like other marriages, a college mar-riage isn’t too different.

“The best part about being marriedwould have to be knowing that there issomeone waiting for you at the end of theday,” Neace said. “Someone you can shareeverything with, especially when you havebad days in classes or anything. It’s know-ing that you have someone who under-stands what you’re going through and isdetermined to help you out every step ofthe way.”

GoldenForks 2011-2012, and thelosers are ...

Years ago — or so the legend goes — an embit-tered Kernel editor came back to the office upset,hurt, insulted. A prominent campus figure had un-fairly harangued the young reporter for an offensethat he did not commit.

It was at that point, in the heat and sweat of ten-sion, that the young editor vowed revenge. Fromthose feelings of hate, the Golden Forks were born.As a testament to that young reporter we take itupon ourselves to strike back with venomous pleas-ure at those who have wronged the mighty “FourthEstate.”

Editor’s note: OK, OK that’s a lie. We’re abunch of sarcastic, immature college students whofeel like venting their frustrations at the end of theyear. It’s unfortunate that some of you must bearthe brunt of that. But take comfort in the fact thatin about a month the summer Kernel begins, underthe direction of Les Johns, and then comes the fallwith the woman you love to hate, Becca Clemons.You are encouraged to make the life of these twofine people a living hell. Until then, if you’re upset,feel free to send in letters to the editor, as always.

But this is the second-to-last issue, so theywon’t get printed. We’ll read them though.

Have a good summer.

This blurb was adapted from the April 28, 1989,edition of the Golden Forks Awards.

The “Prince Charming Combover”award goes to Student Government President

Micah Fielden. Never before have weseen hair flow so smoothly from oneside of the head to the other. Neverbefore has a Student Governmentpresident been so closely groomed —appearance-wise, that is. At least, he’sthe prettiest in recent years. We’retoo lazy to look up the mugs of pastleaders.

The “Always onVibrate” awardgoes to basketball walk-ons Sam Malone andBrian Long. Thanks,guys, for answering ourphone calls.

The “Freshman! Freshman!” awardgoes to President Eli Capilouto, who isfinishing his first year at the helm ofthis institution. Our new president hassurvived his Freshman 15. But can hesurvive the Sophomore 20? As in, a$20 million budget cut for UK. Take adeep breath and do one last keg standbefore you head into upper division,Eli.

The “Finally Leader of the Pack”award goes to Provost Kumble Sub-baswamy, who recently landed the topjob at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst. The job market is tough. Weknow, we’re newspaper journalists.But you’ve proved the old adage thatif first you don’t succeed in getting thetop job at a state institution, try, tryagain. Looks like fourth time’s thecharm.

The “Long Eyebrow Hair, Don’tCare” award goes to UK fresh-man baller Anthony Davis for refus-ing to shave his unibrow at the be-ginning of the year. And for subse-quently making it the biggest fashionstatement on campus since “Jorts.”Good luck in the NBA. MaybeGillette will sponsor you.

The “How to Make a Quick Buck”award goes to poster sellers on eBay for makingmoney off of Anthony Davis. Some of the auction-eers sold the posters for more than $150. Take that,NCAA.

The “Give This Guy Some DamnBasketball Tickets” award goes to a manfrom Charlotte, N.C., who posted a listing offeringhis wife in exchange for NCAA Tournament tick-ets. Classy, right? This man deserves an award.He’s just doing what millions of men across thecountry could only hope to do: See UK in the FinalFour. We hope it worked out for you, big guy.

The “Look Ma, I Finally Did It”award goes to this year’s football team for beat-ing Tennessee after a 26-year losing streak. Con-grats for finally beating the team that our parentsnever could. Next year, maybe an actual quarter-back can lead the team to victory.

The “That’s What She Said” awardgoes to DanceBlue 2012 participants for going“twice as hard, half as long” (their words, not ours)after the annual marathon was shortened to 12hours because of weather concerns. Don’t get uswrong, we love the mission of Dance-Blue, but long nights in the newsroomcan make you channel your innercrude high school sense of humor.

*Runner-up goes to Kyle Wiltjerfor this quote: “Not a lot of peoplehave seen it. When I pull it out, theydon’t know what’s coming. Thenwhen it goes in, they’re like, ‘Whoa,what just happened?’” (He’s talkingabout his hook shot, people.)

The “Most Photogenic” award goes toKate on State. Getting to New Orleans and buyingFinal Four tickets were expensive endeavors. But,one UK student found a way to bring BourbonStreet to the Bluegrass. Whether she received anybeads on State Street that evening has yet to beconfirmed.

The “Smile, You’re on Candid Cam-era” award goes to UK fans who set a car onfire on State Street after UK beat Louisville in theFinal Four. No, no, keep telling yourself that gaso-line isn’t flammable. And forget about the fact thatsomeone might need that car to get to work. Cele-brating a sports win is much more important thansafety and livelihood. What a bummer that policefigured out how to use that darn YouTube thing andidentified your faces in a video of the incident.Oops!

The “Party Crasher” award goes toUK’s former president, Lee Todd. We expected cur-

rent President Eli Capilouto to cutdown the nets in Atlanta after the winto go to the Final Four, but we were atad surprised to see that Todd hoppedon that ladder, too. We know Capi-louto’s just a freshman, but he’s readyto fly on his own now.

The “Our Biggest Pet Peeve” awardgoes to DeWayne Peevy of UK MediaRelations. When one of our reporterscalled two unofficial basketball play-ers, Peevy revoked our access to aninterview. That ticked us off. Then, hefinished the year by NOT giving usany more trouble. That REALLYticked us off! Thanks for making pub-lic relations the news.

kernel. we do it daily.

With the annual Blue/White scrimmagecome and gone, the UK football team willshift back into offseason mode before playersreturn again for training camp in August.Now that spring practice has concluded, let’sreflect on what we learned over the lastmonth.

1. Joker Phillips and Randy Sanders aretrying to open up the offense for 2012. In thescrimmage, both offenses operated almostexclusively out of the no-huddle and shotgunformation. Quarterback Maxwell Smith toldme coaches have said they would like tothrow the ball up to 70 percent of the timeduring the upcoming season. This is a drasticshift from the safe, screen-heavy offense theCats featured in 2011, placing them near thebottom nationally in many statistical cate-gories. With explosive targets like wide re-ceivers Demarco Robinson and DarylCollins, three capable tight ends with differ-ent skill sets, a healthy offensive line (fornow) and depth at running back, Smithshould have the tools around him and the ex-perience to put more points on the board thisseason.

2. The secondary is still UK’s biggestquestion mark heading into the summer. De-fensive back Marcus Caffey had a goodspring season and made an impact on

Phillips, but defensive coordinator RickMinter says the position is still an open com-petition. Caffey made some plays in thescrimmage, but the secondary was beat downthe field multiple times by Robinson and fel-low wide receiver E.J. Fields, and was tornapart over the middle by UK’s tight ends.

Aside from Cartier Rice, the team’s spe-cial package cornerback, who mostly saw thefield when team’s opened up into three orfour-wide receiver sets, there is not a wealthof experience at a position that was a weak-ness for the Cats in 2011. With a strong frontseven in front of them, the secondary is farfrom hopeless. But it remains one of UK’sbiggest areas of concern heading into thesummer.

3. UK’s punter is not on campus rightnow. Well, maybe he is. Phillips said he has-n’t been able to check all the fraternities andother student organizations to see if any un-knowns have a leg. But for now, the positionseems up for grabs. Whoever assumes thepunting duties will have big shoes to fill,with Ryan Tydlacka departing as one of theCats’ most reliable performers in 2011. Thepunter before him, Tim Masthay, is now thepunter for the Green Bay Packers and has aSuper Bowl ring to show for it. “Punter U,”as UK has been referred as in the past, willbe looking for its next in line, or at least forsomeone who can consistently benefit UK inthe field position battle, something Tydlackaexcelled at during his career.

Three things learned in spring football

Cats want open offense, strong secondary, punter

sports

those 18- and 19-year-oldsare living their life and howI’m living my 21-year-oldlife struck me repeatedlythroughout this season. I of-ten found myself wondering,as I sat with a voice recorderpointed in the general direc-tion of one of these playersafter a game (almost alwaysafter a win), what it would belike to be on the other side ofthat recorder. Would I growaccustomed to the attentionand approach it nonchalant-ly? Would I embrace it andbe the media’s best friend?Would I be incredibly awk-ward and give incomprehen-sible answers?

Probably this.And on a more serious

note: would I care aboutschool if I had the near-cer-tainty of millions sittingmonths away from me? Thisis the far more interestingquestion for me, considering

how much media attentionthe whole “one-and-done”culture — especially at UK— has created.

I’d like to think I wouldfind motivation for school-work, even if I was projectedto go in the lottery. I alwayshave cared about academics.

But I’ve also never beenable to posterize anybody, ei-ther, and maybe that differ-ence might make all the dif-ference.

So yes, those five peopleand I (and you) lived vastlydifferent lives, an existencethat I can only know froman outsider’s perspective.But some of the more re-warding moments came dur-ing times when I saw acommon ground betweenus.

Most of these came out-side the confines of a bas-ketball court — as previous-ly stated, I have no businesstrying to relate to them inthat aspect, seeing as how Iwas cut from my middle-school team and failed to

make a Jordan-esque careerturnaround — and insteadcame in the college-kidrealm.

Teague dancing light-heartedly for a White BoyAcademy video. Davis andKidd-Gilchrist professingtheir roomie love for oneanother after winning thenational championship.Jones and Lamb posting acamera phone mirror pictureon social media.

Those are the momentswhen I connect these playersmore to a campus than anNBA arena, and those are themoments that only amplifymy respect for how they con-ducted themselves through aseason of incessant attentionand adulation.

And then those momentspass, and they morph backinto basketball players readyto make the jump into a pro-fessional league and becomemuch richer and much moresuccessful than I ever will be.And I don’t resent them forthat one bit.

The performance of “Thor-oughly Modern Millie” was metwith a packed house on openingweekend.

“Millie” is a musical abouta small town girl trying to makeit big in New York City in theearly 1920s.

The play tackles the sub-jects of love versus money andhuman trafficking.

“It was thrilling to be partof the nearly sold-out house inthe Guignol Theatre for theopening night,” Nancy Jones,chairman for the department of

theater, said.The live orchestra, which

brought a feel of Broadway intothe musical, sat in front of thestage.

The plot of the musical wasseemingly simple throughoutthe performance, until the end.

At the end, the actors’ roleswere revealed.

“Everything connects in theend,” Abby Sheridan, whoplayed Millie Dillmount, said.

Minus the stumble at thebeginning of the musical withlines by William James Bradleyplaying Jimmy Smith in Satur-day’s performance, the musicalwas played with absolute per-

fection.“Our students did a fantastic

job; The voices are wonderful,the choreography and dancenumbers are pitch perfect, andthe orchestra brings incredibleenergy to the production,” Jonessaid.

One of the greatest perform-ers of the night was MadisonMcGhee, playing Mrs. Meers.

She kept the crowd laugh-ing with her witty dialogue andwas a wonderfully deviant char-acter.

When the plot was headingmore on the romantic side, shewas able to keep the audiencelaughing by turning the tables.

Those playing Ching Hoand Bun Foo, Chris Floyd andEvan Jennings Pulliam, put on awonderful performance.

Minus one or two lines,

their entire performance was inChinese, making fun of othercharacters or in Bun Foo’s case,falling in love.

“The audience was on theirfeet opening night honoringour incredible cast and crewwith standing ovations,” Jonessaid.

UK OUTsource will host the Gayla, the or-ganization’s main event of the year, in the smallballroom of the Student Center at 6 p.m. onThursday.

The event will consist of a student dragshow, the Imperial Court of Kentucky dragshow, free food from UK catering, a disc jockeyand student performers.

“It’s the biggest event we host,” RossCowling, senior OUTsource resource coordina-tor and official planner for the Gayla, said. “Wealways have ahuge turnout,great food and agreat time.”

The unveil-ing of the Di-versity Project,a quilt made byCatherine Br-ereton, GainesFellow and jun-ior English andGender WomenStudies major, is set to happen early during theevent.

The quilt began as a community based proj-ect with the thematic concentration of celebrat-ing diversity and identity in the LGBT commu-nity by creating a large piece of yarn art as itsvisual representation. It soon gained world-widerecognition and participation.

The project began last September, when Br-ereton started putting up fliers and using differ-ent forms of social media to promote her idea.

By the end of January, 168 squares weresent to Brereton, and she began to assemble thequilt.

“Quilts came from literally all over theworld, so many people wanted to be involved,”she said. “I received work from many people inLexington, all over the US, Canada, SouthAfrica, everywhere.”

The quilt is 140 square feet and weighsmore than 100 pounds.

“It’s enormous, beautiful and really, reallydifficult to work on at this point,” Brereton said.“I wanted it to be a reflection of every individ-ual personality and taste, not what I think itshould be.”

My dearest, most cherishedreaders, this is it.

This is justa simple andtemporarygoodbye, yousee, becausethis is the lastcolumn ofPardon forjust a littlewhile.

For manyof you shining,bright folks,this might beyour last se-

mester here at the big blue UK.Maybe you’re an eager me-

dia law professor who is bidding

adieu to the university and em-barking on personal adventures.

Or perhaps you’re a soon-to-be graduate, complete with hun-gry eyes and an unmatched an-ticipation of what’s waiting foryou to tackle in this invigoratinghome that we call the world.

And maybe you’re on theopposite end of that spectrum,reflecting upon how fast yourfirst year of college has blurredpast you like the memories ofthose late drunken nightsseemed fast forward with theother college firsts.

Either way, this close thatis approaching is somethingspecial for it unites us all. Thisend that’s vastly approaching,

whether it’s desperately wishedfor or anxiously avoided, isgranting us all something that’sprecious and rare.

The end might be dwin-dling down but what’s at theend isn’t really the end. It’s justanother beginning of some newjourney with endless possibili-ties — an ice cream bar with anarray of curious flavors andtantalizing toppings, just wait-ing for your picking.

It’s a record store withevery eclectic musician, everyalbum and song, yearning forthe tip of your fingertips to flipby and purchase, playing on re-peat.

This new is something that

could be humble and painful,breathtaking and rejuvenating.Regardless, it’s a new start. It’snot erasing the past, but em-bracing it all, the good, the badand learning how to mold thatinto something so unique toyour being that it can onlymake you flourish.

Enjoy the warm summerdays ahead and cherish thememories you have with yourloved ones, friends and neigh-bors. Bask in the glory of theday and the melody of the songbecause life is short but musicis forever.

“Such a long, long time tobe gone and a short time to bethere.” –The Grateful Dead

Pardon the Interlude: A farewell and a melody

Summer brings opportunities to reflect on year, chance for a new start

ORLANDO, Fla. — GeorgeZimmerman’s website, used tosolicit money for his legal de-fense, has been taken down.

A spokesman for defenseattorney Mark O’Mara saidWednesday that that was in-tentional, and that peopleshould not look for it to comeback.

The point, said JimmyWoods, O’Mara’s office man-ager and spokesman, is forZimmerman to have no Webpresence.

Zimmerman, 28, ischarged with second-degreemurder for shooting TrayvonMartin, an unarmed black 17-year-old, as the teenagerwalked through Zimmer-

man’s gated community Feb.26.

The shooting set offdemonstrations across thecountry by critics who ac-cused Zimmerman of racialprofiling and were outragedthat Sanford police made noarrest, saying they were con-vinced that Zimmerman actedin self-defense.

A special prosecutor,though, did charge Zimmer-man earlier this month. He’snow free on $150,000 bail.

Before his arrest, Zim-merman went into hiding butcreated a website, therealge-orgezimmerman.com, to airhis political views and solicitmoney for his defense.

He later hired O’Mara,who has since worked to min-imize media exposure.

You probablyhave a long listof things to dobefore you leavecampus, but thereare a few thingsthat you may nothave considered.

1. Stay fitDevelop a

plan for exercise.You may be stuckbehind a desk foreight hours a dayinstead of walk-

ing around campus. Plus, withoutthe convenience of the Johnson Stu-dent Recreation Center, it may bedifficult to stay active. It will be

important to find ways to exercise,like taking the stairs at work orscheduling workouts into your dailyroutine.

2. Kick the habitThe longer you smoke, the hard-

er it gets to stop. If the UK smokingban didn’t help you kick the habit,this is a great time to try as you tran-sition into your new life. UHS hastools that can help you quit. Call323-APPT to schedule an appoint-ment with a Tobacco Cessation Spe-cialist.

3. Are You Covered? Up to this point, you may have

had some type of health insurance.Some students may now find them-selves without coverage. If you have

some “lag time” between graduationand when your new job starts, thencontinuation coverage may be an op-tion during this transition period.Contact your carrier to see if youhave the option to continue yourcoverage. If you are enrolled in theAcademic HealthPlans/Humana in-surance plan you may elect to utilizethe “continuation plan”. Email stu-dentinsurance@email.uky.edu for de-tails. Also, if you are under the ageof 26, you may be eligible for cover-age under your parent’s health insur-ance policy based on the AffordableCare Act.

If you will be buying your ownplan, compare more than just month-ly premiums. Before you purchase

anything, be sure you understandtheir out-of-pocket costs, providerchoices and covered services. Toolsare available online to help youmake a well-informed decision. Aguide to choosing a health insuranceplan and glossary of insurance indus-try terms can be found through theU.S. Department of Health and Hu-man Services website atwww.ahrq.gov.

4. Don’t stress outSome people may find that they

feel anxious or stressed about gradu-ation. It may be overwhelming tothink about life after UK and beingin the “real world.” This is normaland is something that many graduat-ing seniors experience. You may

find it helpful to talk to friends whoare also graduating. They may sharesimilar feelings, and it may be easierto cope with your own anxieties orfears. It may also be helpful to talkto someone in UHS BehavioralHealth (323-5511) or the CounselingCenter (257-8701).

The staff at the University HealthService wishes all graduating seniorsthe best of luck in their future en-deavors.

Jill Kindy is a registered dietitianat the University Health Service andUK students can schedule one-on-one appointments with her by calling323-2778. Email opinions@kyker-nel.com.
