Dr. Dee Akers has made six trips to Thailand, providing leaders with
locally-developed research on social and technology law. The research is
helping solve problems in the Far East.
The Thai Connection
Profe.ssor Transports
Research to Far East
By Tom Schulz
Chulalongkorn University is a
name few on the Belknap Campus, or
anywhere else in Louisville, would
recognize. But thanks partly to the ef­forts
of Dr. Dee Akers the converse is
not true. The University of Louisville
and its academic and research pro­grams
are becoming as familiar to
this Thai university as, perhaps, the U
of L basketball team.
Akers, director of the Government
Law Center at the University of
Louisville and part-time faculty
member of the School of Law,
returned this summer from a three­week
August trip to the Far East with
stop-overs in Singapore, Bangkok,
Hong Kong and Tokyo. While on the
trip he was able to attend the closing
sessions of the seventh LAW ASIA
conference in Bangkok, Thailand.
Over 600 lawyers from 17 Asian and
Western Pacific countries attended
the five-day conference.
According to Akers among the
most pressing concerns to the legal
profession there are in the areas of
Technology Law and Social Law. The
LAW ASIA conference devoted an
entire section to each of these topics
while in the United States similar con­ferences
mention them, usually, only
in passing.
"I was pleased to see on the agenda
a whole section on each of (the
Government Law Center's) unique
characteristics," Akers said explain­ing
that the law center views both
social and technology law as especial
concerns in fulfilling its role within
the university and to the public as a
whole.
But Akers admitted, with a certain
amount of disappointment, that these
two areas have a higher profile
elsewhere than here in the United
States.
"After all," Akers explained,
"they are an older culture with a
more mature political consciousness.
They have been playing at politics a
lot longer than we have."
Incidentally Akers pointed out that
at an international conference of this
sort language offers no barrier. The

Law Students Learn How to Cope With Stress
By Linda Thomas
Law students are like cave dwellers.
They both have "tigers" to slay.
Cavemen had the real tigers. Law
students' "tigers" are Contracts,
Evidence, Secured Transactions, not
being prepared for class, final exams
or any one of a hundred other minor
crises.
The physiological components of
stress and healthy management of
stress were topics at the Law Forum's
"Stress Workshop," September 24
and 25. Dr. Richard Fee and Dr.
Michael Skinner, both professors at
the University of Louisville, were the
main speakers at the workshop.
In the first lecture Dr. Fee explain­ed
that the body's physiological
response to stress has remained the
same since the cave dweller's era. The
caveman perceived the tiger as a
threat. When the tiger was killed,
caveman's body relaxed.
Today's "tigers" do not go away
and our bodies can never completely
dissipate the physiological effects of
stress, which eventually will cause
things like early aging and increased
susceptibility to diseases.
Dr. Fee described the human
response to stress in terms of the
"stress pathways": cardiovascular,
gastrointestinal, circulatory and
neurological systems which provide
intervening physiological responses
linking the perception of "stressors"
or ''tigers'' to the end products of our
bodies.
In the cardiovascular system stress
can cause arrythmias and palpita­tions,
which, though mild initially'
can become persistent, prolonged, _
uncontrollable and can result in
death.
In the gastrointestinal system stress
reactions range from hypoacidity,
slowed digestion and constipation to
hyperacidity, gas and diarrhea.
The circulatory system acts as a
stress pathway when blood vessels
constrict in preparation for stress and
then dilate suddenly afterward, caus­ing
migraine headaches.
The neurological system's stress
pathway may increase or decrease
brain activity ,causing one to become
so alert he is unable to focus on one
idea, or so mentally slow he becomes
physically depressed.
''People are now being taught to
control their stress pathway responses
through biofeedback and relaxation
techniques," said Dr. Fee, who then
demonstrated a complete relaxation
technique with the audience.
In the second lecture Dr. Skinner
described the psychological stress
process, its symptoms and methods
of coping with it.
"Stress, the friction that results
when we interact with our environ­ment,
is normal," Skinner asserted.
"It only becomes debilitating when
the environment asks things of the in­dividual
he can't successfully do."
Stress is a continuum in which peo­ple
constantly move toward exhaus­tion
or collapse. As the individual
becomes more stressed, behavior
becomes more childlike, elemental,
and "disorganization," described by
Skinner as ''the true beginning of the
stress process," ensues. At the ex­haustion
stage, the individual's
psychological reactions become slow­ed,
and he tends to suffer myriad
minor physical ailments.
Collapse, the final stage, is signaled
by the individual's retreat into
himself. People in this phase of the
continuum believe life will never im­prove
and want to get it over with as
quickly as possible. Collapse can lead
to insanity, a ''total dependency on
the environment," according to Dr.
Skinner.
How do we know when we are
stressed? Cues are: People under
stress are irritable. Their sense of
humor shrinks to a point where they
can't laugh at themselves or others.
They exhibit compulsive behavior.
Nothing seems to go right for them
and it's always someone else's fault.
''These people can't be happy unless
they're miserable,'' said Dr. Skinner.
Stressed individuals are always ask­ing
for help, and have difficulty mak­ing
trifling decisions. Although often
hypercritical of others, they are
hypersensitive to criticism.
Stressed individuals ''tranquilize
themselves with trivia" to avoid fac­ing
real issues. They appear socially
inflexible and may withdraw from
friends. They are forgetful, lack goals
and constantly have minor ailments.
Sound familiar? If so, Dr. Skinner
recommends five methods for manag­(

Committee Calls For
Improvements in Education
By Ruth Ann Cox
A citizens' committee on the future
of higher education in Kentucky
released the results of its 18 month
study the week of Oct. 5. The com­mittee,
appointed by the State Coun­cil
on Higher Education, produced a
217 -page repo.rt after examining
various areas of state higher educa­tion.
Headed by Frankfort attorney
Edward F. Prichard, the 30 member
committee was most vocal in its call
for improved quality on the state's
campuses.
The committee caused a notable
amount of controversy when it releas­ed
a preliminary report which recom­mended
closing one of Kentucky's
three law schools which are located at
University of Louisville, University
of Kentucky and Northern Kentucky
University. Shortly after the recom­mendation
was made last May, the
Kentucky Bar Association Board of
Governors adopted a resolution urg-ing
the governor, the General
Assembly and the state Council on
Higher Education to continue sup­porting
all three law schools.
The committee was expected to
name one of the schools fotclosing
before ending its study. Instead, the
committee tabled the
committee tabled the recommenda­tion,
advising the Council on Higher
Education to pursue the matter of a
law school closure only after further
examination of the matter.
The committee further suggested
that enrollment in law, medical, den­tal,
and pharmacy schools should be
based on the projected need for such
graduates in Kentucky rather than on
student desires to enroll. The commit­tee
contended there may already be
too many attorneys in Kentucky, a
number that will continue to grow
unless greater restrictions on enroll­ment
are instituted.
NIGHT and DAY
Petty Annoyances Compound
Law School Experience
By Patricia Guthrie
If you are looking for yet another
scholarly dissertation on the quality
of education, instructors, etc. in the
context of ''Night School versus Day
School," you will be sorely disap­pointed.
My best guest, only specula­tion
since I have never been a day stu­dent,
is that they are generally
equivalent.
Law school, whether by day or by
night, is a stressful proposition. We
saw "Paper Chase." We expected the
worst. We were prepared for it. Or so
we thought.
I was prepared for crotchety pro­fessors
who, in their best Kingsfield
style would question me unmercifully
on offer and acceptance. I was
prepared for long nights of studying
and deciphering impossible material.
I was even somewhat prepared for the
stark terror that engulfed me during
my first set of law school examina­tions.
But what I was not prepared
for, what I have not adjusted to, is
the way this stress permeates life, col­ors,
attitudes and puts normal day-to­day
stresses into a new perspective. It
is in the accumulation of-· these
stresses that night students must sure­ly
win over thei daytime counterparts.
At last, an area in which we clearly
forge ahead, an arena from which we
emerge as victor. Surely few
will dispute that law school, a full
time job and a family equals
overload.-
Few of us foresaw this result. In my
idyllic youth when I dreamed of
becoming Perry Mason, I never
visualized myself in law school. Sure,
I had long make-believe scenarios of
myself at the airport, briefcase in
hand, waiting to take off to save
some person or corporation. It was
my particular version of changing my
clothes in a phone booth and charg­ing
out to save the world. Never did it
occur to me that I would have to
work my way through law school.
Since working became a reality, a
necessity in fact, I adjusted. I have
learned to take the major crises in
stride. I have learned to weather
unrelenting professors (or drop the
class). I have learned to study during
the week and sleep on weekends. Oc­cassionally,
however, the demon
stress escapes and ravages those
around me.
The administration is responsible
for many of the minor annoyances
that set me off. Why, I would like to
ask someone in the know, is it im­possible
to stock enough toilet tissue
in the ladies restroom so that students
arriving at 5:00p.m. might also avail
themselves of this luxury? If this is
one of the components of the univer­sity
budget cuts, wouldn't it be fairer
to put some in during the day and
save some of the stock for the night
students?
Why must those of us who are forc­ed
to consume our nightly repast
from vending machines be left with
no soft drinks and unfamiliar candy
bars? Surely better planning could
provide us with tastier options.
What of instructors, practicing at­torneys
by day, who are driven to
near maniacal rages by undusted
blackboard erasers or, worse still,
disappearing chalk? A little planning
by the administration could alleviate
all this grief.
To law students who must endure
these inconveniences, take heart. Law
school is not terminal. Like P.O.W.'s
who are forced to endure periods of
cramped- confinement,- our per­sonalities
will undoubtedly return to
near normal when the experience is
completed. Law school will leave its
mark, but it will be faint and heal
quickly.
To the administration who must
lead us through this experience, have
a heart. Please try to make our
journey as comfortable as possible.
And please remember that night
students and instructors, already
stressed from long workdays, could
benefit from a little consideration. Or
at the very least, a clean blackboard
and a cold Pepsi.

materials are in English and the
presentations are in English or inter­preted
into English.
Perhaps the reason social law and
technology law are of much greater
concern abroad is evident from the
nature of the region.
Large populations suffer from at­tendant
lack of housing, adequate
employment and other social
malaises. Smaller countries are more
dependant on foreign countries for
many of their needs, especially
energy. Social problems are viewed
on a· large scale and innovation in
business and industry become
necessities. As they say, look at the
Japanese. I
"Their future (in Thailand)
depends on new technologies to solve
their social problems," Akers analys­ed.
"They are unable to develop these
new technologies themselves and
must look to other co·untries. Trading
(technology) is paramount. These
laws (governing the trade of
technology) are quite important to
them."
But despite the region's concerns in
these areas, they don't have the
classes or the people to teach them.
Akers toured the law school at
Chulalongkorn University and engag­ed
in conversations with Kosol
Sobhak-Vichitr who teaches interna­tional
law. Sobhak-Vichitr expressed
sincere interest in starting a program
in classes similar to those Akers
teaches at the School of Law: energy
law and science, technology and law.
"I would be interested in helping
get them started in a similar direc­tion,"
Akers admitted.
As a result U of L law courses and
the texts used therein are now being
used as models on the other side of
the world.
What makes U of L figure so pro­minently
in the plans of a Thai
university and the Thai government is
a mystery best explained by looking
at the context of the position Akers
holds.
This summer's trip was Aker's fifth
or sixth extended trip to Thailand,
most of the previous being for the
purpose of recruiting undergraduate
students. Recruitment was also one
goal for this year's trip and as a result
of these and other efforts, Louisville
possess a sizable Thai colony.
"Louisville is almost a second
home for some Thai leaders," Akers
said.
The Thai government and some
Far Eastern entrepreneurs invited
Akers as representative of the
Government Law Center to make the
trip, and incidentally footed the en­tire
bill. Their main concern was
energy technology.
"Other countries are hurting more
than (the United States) in energy.
We've been lucky. They are willing to
listen to any kind of advice of what
their options are. Smaller countries
are at the mercy of international oil
companies," Akers said.
Akers, having been the first ad­ministrator
of the state's Energy
Research and Development Agency,
is apparently a good person from
which to elicit advice in this area. He
has helped Kentucky, as an energy
producing state, to develop a good
range of synfuel programs, more than
any other state in the union. U of L
has laboratory capability in three
alternative energy sources here on
campus, according to Akers.
"Kentucky is in an unique posi­tion,"
Akers said but he also in­dicated
that with the Reagan ad­ministration's
cutbacks interest in
this country is not .high for these pilot
projects. Thailand is more eager to
take advantage of what we learned."
With all these things combined the
Thai connection is not that difficult
to comprehend. Perhaps someday
with an exchange program as a poten­tially
Chulalongkorn University will
become as familiar here as U of L is
there.

Louisville Law Examiner, October 30, 1981 3
"Brandeis Brief" Series
This is the second installment in three-part series on "Juvenile Justice. "
The first installment, which appeared in the Law Examiner on September
21, 1981, examined the prosecutor's role in Kentucky delinquency pro­ceedings.
Juvenile Justice·:
Child Advocate's Role
in Ky. Dependency
Proceedings
By Richard Charles Porter, Jr.
Richard Charles Porter, Jr., graduaiea]rom the School of Law in 1968.
He is a member of the Kentucky, Florida and American Bar Associations.
He has served as an Assistant Jefferson County Attorney, Chairman of the
Jefferson County Housing Authority and a Trustee of the Jefferson County
Public Law Library. He is now in private practice in Louisville and donates
ten hours a week to juvenile court.
Dependency proceedings are governe<;l by KRS 208.020(d) which vests ex­clusive
jurisdiction in the juvenile sessions of the district court over children
who are dependent, neglected or abused as defined in KRS 199.011(5) and
(6). "Dependency" is the general term applied to petitions under KRS
208.020(d) and the matter is civil in nature.
Dependency cases involve children who have been neglected in some man­ner,
or who have been physically or sexually abused. The children are really
the "victims" of the circumstances described in the formal petition to the
court. This is in contrast with the more familiar petition to the court. This is
in contrast with the more familiar juvenile court "delinquency" cases con­cerning
children who are perpetratos of crimes or offenses. The Com­monwealth
prosecutes these civil cases which are denominated "In the in­terest
of Jones, a child." Because of the "right to counsel" of the child and
the well-established doctrine of "the best interest of the child," the child's
attorney or Child Advocate takes on a vital role in the proceedings. Let's
look at how a typical dependency case arises.
A child is seen at the emergency room of a local hospital or comes to
school with serious scratches, bruises, and cuts. Kentucky law imposes a du­ty
under KRS 199.335(2) on doctors, nurses, school teachers, social
workers, police and other parties to report suspected child abuse. If immi­nent
danger exists, law enforcement officers and physicians can hold a child
in custody up to 72 hours until a court-ordered removal of the child is
available. In Jefferson County, the petition is usually filed in court no later
than the next morning.
KRS 199.335(6) provides full civil and criminal immunity from liability to
all those involved in the process of reporting abused and neglected children,
upon reasonable cause. Many other cases arise where parents simply disap­pear,
abandoning children with babysitters or neighbors, who, then phone
the police or protective service authorities of the county. The juvenile judge
will conduct a speedy, private, and informal hearing on the allegations of
the petition, customarily summonsing the parents, if known, and arraigning
the child's parent or custodian on the charges. KRS 208.060.
Obviously, the courts are dealing with an area of the law involving social
problems, the competing interests of parents, and their rights to raise and
discipline their children, and the rights of the child to be free of emotional
and physical harm, and the interest of the Commonwealth in preserving and
strengthening family life and enhancing the capacity of parents to adequate­ly
care for their children (KRS 199.335, subsection one).
The court regularly orders an investigation of the allegations. This is
usually accomplished through the facilities of the county protective services
agency (in Jefferson County, the Department for Human Services) or the
State Department for Human Resources, elsewhere. Police resources may
be employed in the more serious abuse cases. Crime labs take pictures of
abused children, get x-rays made at hospitals, and make investigations of
reported abuse.
The Child Advocate takes a lead in determining and recommending to the
court the placement of the child pending pre-trail, or trial. Many factors
have to be considered such as the age, sex, and educational needs of the
child. Social workers with heavy case loads may not immediately see the
need to provide therapeutic counseling for the 16-year-old female who was
locked out of her home by a hostile parent and told never to return. The
Child Advocate, being in a guardian ad litem position, can often make im­portant
needs of the child known to the court and the case workers.
The child's well-being should be the paramount consideration. A neutral
placement is many times quite appropriate, if intense competition over
custody develops.
After formal arraignment is achieved, the court needs to find out if the
parents can afford an attorney to represent them or if they wish to waive
representation. This is because of ju~gement/finding of dependency, abuse
neglect can result in the loss of a child through court removal. While there
seems to be no Kentucky cases on point, the United States Fifth Circuit
Court of Appeals held in Davis vs. Page, 640 F. 2d 599, decided March 23,
1981, (Florida), "Where prolonged or indefinite deprivation of parental
custody is threatened, due process requires that an indigent parent be of­fered
counsel and that counsel be provided unless a knowing and intelligent
waiver is made.''
While a case is under investigation, the child may need medical examina­tions
or treatment. The Child Advocate can request this of the court and
KR~ 208.160 allo-.ys the judge to ~rder all necessary and helpful testing, in-
1
cludmg psychologml, without the consent of the parents or other custodian
of the child. Sterilization and aboition seem to be the only exception to this
rule.
The Child Advocate will follow the case as it progresses through the legal
system to ma.ke sure it is moved toward a conclusion. Normally, att~mpts
are made to mvolve the parents, custodians, and the child in appropriate
therapy or pa~enting classes, pending adjudication. Where progress is evi­dent,
the Child Advocate can be alert to recommend "informally ad­justing"
or remanding a case. The prosecutor and the court would need to
concur.
If a trial is held or a hearing on temporary placement, the Child Advocate
can participate to protect the child's rights. The Child Advocate can also
l~ad i~ asking the court to. make reasonable pay orders for the necessary
fmancml support of the child from either or both parents as warranted.
Should a court find a child dependent neglected or abused or where the
parent admits "dependency," the Child Advocate can demand a separate
dispositional hearing as authorized by statute.
Prior to disposition, a given case may require reports from doctors
psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, therapists social workers or others i~
order to determine the "best interests of the child." It is the responsibihty
of the Child Advocate to evaluate the reports and to conduct a formal hear­ing
with witnesses, unless all parties agree to the disposition. Ultimately, the
court must rule on the evidence and/or recommendations of the Child Ad­vocate.
This .''dependency" area ~f the j':lvenile justice system relies heavily on
professiOnal workers - onented m the social welfare sector. It is a
specialized area with a vocabulary all its own. The volume of abuse, neglect
and dependency cases is staggering nationwide. Jefferson County is no ex­cept!
on. The position of t~e .<?hild Advocate in the juvenile justice program
carnes ~ sen~us responsibility for representation of a segment of our
populatiOn -I.e., children - who are generally without financial resources
or the ability to even casually represent themselves. The next time you meet
a Child Advocate in juvenile court, his or her duties will hopefully be
clearer.
Labor Forum opens series
By Kathy Salsbery
The Labor Relations Forum open­ed
its 1981-82 speaker series on
Wednesday, October 7, with Mr.
Chris Barreca, Chief Labor and
Employment Law Counsel for the
General Electric Company, Fairfield,
Connecticutt.
Speaking on ''The Changing Role
of Labor Arbitration," Barreca
pointed out four significant areas of
the law which are effecting change in
labor arbitration: the impact of exter­nal
law; the growth of expedited ar­bitration;
the collision course bet­ween
formality and informality in ar­bitration
proceedings; and the
emergence of personal privacy rights
in labor arbitration.

Republicans, Democrats Appear Separately
Candidates Bring Fall Cantpaigns to Law School
By Scott Furkin
Personal visits by aspiring politi­cians
have become as much a part of
autumn at the law school as are fall­ing
leaves and scurrying squirrels.
The recent appearances of
Republican and Democratic can­didates
for major local offices
guaranteed that this season would be
no exception.
On September 28, the Republicans
plead their case in the Allen Cour­troom.
George Clark, candidate for
Mayor of Louisville; Mitch McCon­nell,
incumbent Jefferson County
Judge/Executive; and John Heyburn,
candidate for Jefferson County At­torney
spoke to a group of approx­imately
35 law students and guests.
On October 7, the Democrats
followed suit. Harvey Sloane, can­didate
for Mayor and Bruce Miller,
incumbent County Attorney spoke
and answered questions. A scheduled
appearance by Jim "Pop" Malone,
Democratic candidate for County
Judge/Executive, was cancelled due
to a family death. Approximately 50
people attended the meeting .
The candidates' appearances were
arranged by law students who do
volunteer work in one or more of the
campaigns. Coffee and refreshments
were provided by the Louisville Law
Forum.
Bill Parks, one of the Republican
organizers, and Teri Hasenour, a
Democratic volunteer, agreed that
candidates are genuinely eager to
speak at the law school. Many of the
candidates were once in professional
school themselves and recognize that
students in this category are generally
more politically aware and likely to
vote - and more likely to influence:
others to vote.
The candidates' opening
statements varied in length, but each
stressed familiar themes from their
campaigns. The question-and-answer
period which followed provided more
spark, with law students pressing the
men for specific details.
In response to a question about his
plan for Louisville's economic
redevelopment, George Clark
described his vision of a thriving
metropolitan center which would be
attractive to business and tourists
alike. Key projects are the Galleria,
the Broadway area revitalization and
the Seelbach and Brown Hotel
restorations, he said. Clark stressed
that success in such ventures depends
on the support of local banking and
business leaders, which he says he has.
Mitch McConnell reviewed his ac­complishments
as County Judge/Ex­ecutive,
citing improvements in the
county jail and corrections depart­ment
as examples of his ability to br­ing
professionalism to government.
McConnell said that his administra­tion
has managed to provide efficient
basic services despite declining
revenues.
McConnell, who seems likely to
win a second term, was asked his
position on the proposed guber­natorial
succession amendment to the
Kentucky constitution. He chose tits
·words carefully, saying that he isn't
opposed to the concept of succession
but feels that it is inappropriate for a
sitting governor to pursue the matter
as relentlessly as has Gov. John Y.
Brown,_ Jr.
Harvey Sloane decried the lack of
leadership in the current administra­tion
of Mayor William Stansbury and
promised to bring to the office the
same spirit displayed during his first
term in 1973-77. He said that the im­plementation
of such programs as the
T ARC bus system and the Emergency
Medical Services corps proves that he
is capable of competent leadership.
Sloane blamed the failure of his
highly touted housing development
for Appalachia on vindictiveness on
the part of key members of the Brown
administration in Frankfort. Never­theless,
he said, such friction would
not hinder his efforts as the city's
mayor.
Though they appeared separately,
the most heated exchanges occurred
between John Heyburn and Bruce
Miller. Heyburn is seeking to replace
Miller as County Attorney, a position
Miller has held for 12 years.
Heyburn promised, if elected, to
devote all his professional time to the _
office and to take positive steps to
reverse the trends towards the use of
part-time assistants. He criticized the
present policy of staffing the entire
civil side of the office with part-time
assistants as giving rise to divided
time and conflicting loyalties.
Miller defended his policy, saying
that the use of part-time assistants
has permitted him to attract highly
competent attorneys who wouldn't
serve if they were forced to abandon
all other professional concerns.
Miller denied that there had been any
conflicts of interest in his administra­tion.
Predictably, all the candidates urg­ed
straight-ticket voting. Each man
said that his job performance would
be enhanced by the election of his
fellow partisans.
Organizers of the candidates' ap­pearances
admitted that few minds
were likely to be changed by the
meetings - with only a month left
until the elections, most of those in
attendance came to show
their support for one candidate or
another. But it was hoped that the
meetings resulted in increased
understanding of issues in the fall
campaigns.
If nothing else, the meetings con­firmed
that there's an easy way to
recognize the arrival of autumn: If
the crisp mornings and shorter days
don't tip you off, the familiar ring of
political rhetoric surely will.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND
THE LAW SCHOOL
An exciting discussion of academic
excellence is beginning in the law
school. An excellent law school is one
in which there is a broad, diverse cur­riculum
with high quality instruction.
The instruction is rigorous in method,
content and assessment. An excellent
law school is attractive to, and at­tracts,
the best students and faculty
members. It prepares its graduates
for a wide range of practice for the
year of their graduation and for fifty
years beyond graduation. Such a law
school is also deeply involved in
research and creative activity which
(in the words of the Prichard Com­mittee)
is "judged excellent by other
researchers and those who use the
research." A strong law journal,
moot court and other cocurricular
programs provide students with the
opportunity to sharpen and
demonstrate their legal skills. A
strong library must be maintained to
support outstanding research and in­struction.
The assistance of an ex­cellent
law school is sought by the
profession and by society in develop­ing
professional services such as CLE
programs and practice manuals, as
well as for participation in high level
professional and governmental com­missions
and activities.
The opportunity is rare indeed for
a law school to join the relatively
limited ranks of the truly academical­ly
excellent law schools. Yet such an
opportunity seeins to be presented to
the University of Louisville School of
Law now, the result of the confluence
of recent improvements in the law
school, the new building addition,
and an increased interest in quality in
the university and the Com­monwealth.
The faculty and deans in the last
decade, with the support of the alum­ni,
students and staff of the law
school, and officials of the university,
have guided the law school through
significant improvements. The law
school has a long tradition of quality
instruction. Our instructional pro­gram
has been strengthened through
an expansion of the curriculum ·
(especially small classes and
seminars), the appropriate use of
practitioners and judges as part-time
faculty, a significantly expanded
writing program, and the addition of
several highly qualified young full­time
faculty. The student/faculty
ratio has been reduced, allowing basic
courses to be taught in smaller sec­tions
and the addition of a number of
important advanced courses to the
curriculum. The Brandeis Society has
been organized to recognize outstan­ding
student academic accomplish­ment.
Faculty members serve on bar
and governmental commissions at the
local, state and national levels. The
faculty has substantially expanded its
contribution to legal scholarship
through increased research and
publication, and the law library has
been enlarged to support this
·research. A major new addition to the
'law school building will encourage
the school to continue to improve the
academic program.
The new building will give us an ex­cellent
physical facility. It will pro­vide
considerable room for library
growth. It will provide very good
classroom and seminar facilities. For
the first time the law school will have
adequate rooms for student group
study, the Journal of Family Law,
· Associate Dean Smith
student organizations, moot court,
offices for all faculty, practice court, .
and administrative and legislative
hearings. The building will, in short,
give us the opportunity to carry on a
wide range of academic activities that
in the past were difficult or impossi­ble.
The opportunity for academic pro­gress
fortunately comes at a time
when the university and the Com­monwealth
are recognizing the need
for academic excellence. President
Donald Swain has indicated that
achieving academic excellence is a
primary goal of his, and he has set in
motion a process to reallocate funds
for excellence. The Prichard Commit­tee
recently issued a report on the
future of higher education in Ken­tucky
to the Council on Higher
Education. The major thrust of that
report was the importance of pro­moting
excellence in higher educa­tion.
The committee suggested a
number of ways in which Kentucky
can make a commitment to ex­cellence.
Even the momentum resulting
from recent improvements in the law
school, the fine building addition and
the increased interest in quality will
not by themselves create an outstan­ding
law school. They do, however,
give us the opportunity to develop
true excellence over the next five or
ten years. To become great, the facul­ty
and students must continue to
develop a broad curriculum with
rigorous instruction. The quality and
quantity of our research must· be ex­panded
while our service commitment
continues. At the same time, the
alumni and friends of the school, of­ficials
of the university and the Com­monwealth
and the law school must
work closely together to provide the
moral, financial and collegial support
necessary to promote excellence. The
library collection must be substantial­ly
improved, scholarships increased,
endowed chairs established and other
provisions made to attract and retain
excellent faculty, research support in­creased,
and the best students en­couraged
to attend the U of L law
school.
The struggle for excellence will not
be short or easy, but it is an exciting
struggle which I very much hope we
will undertake. That resolve, along
with a good deal of hard work, pa­tience
and financial support, will
allow us to make a leap of quality
that few other law schools have ac­complished.
Sincerely,
Steven R:.·~ Smith

·Night Students Learn and Live the Law
By Gail Dopf
And Steve Durham
Diligent and dedicated are but two
of the words that describe night law
students Charlene Jones, Bob Mc­Queen
and Jack Steiner.
Law students by night, these three,
like so many other night students,
manage full-time professions, vague­ly
related to law, during the day.
Ms. Jones, is a professor of
political science at Jefferson Com­munity
College and coordinator of
the Political Science Department
there. She interns with the U.S. At­torney's
Office in Louisville and is
vice president of the Kentucky
Association of Community College
Professors, a lobbying group. By
night she's a fourth year student with.
plans of graduating in May.
McQueen, also a fourth year stu­dent,
is State Aide to U.S. Senator
Walter "Dee" Huddleston, coor­dinating
all his Kentucky contacts,
managing his itineraries during visits
to the state, and acting as the
Senator's liaison with various state
and local government groups, special
interest groups and others who want
to see the Senator. He decides where
he goes an·d who he sees while he's in
Kentucky:
B~b McQueen
Jack Steiner, "a slave to the law at
night, enforces it by day" as an of­ficer
with the Jefferson County
Police Department for the past nine
years. He is presently with the Plann­ing
and Research Unit preparing
reports for the Unit and advice from
the research reports for the Chief of
Police and other administrative of­ficials
within the department. He also
drafts and updates the JCPD stan­dard
operating procedures manual,
researches the criminal justice system,
and plans new procedures for the
"changing times." He also does legal
research, helps draft legislation and is
the liaison with the county attorney's
office.
All three of these students were
drawn to the study of law because of
the professions they currently pursue
full time. But that's where their
similarities end.
Ms. Jones who has been teaching at
JCC for seven years, recently receiv­ing
tenure, turned to the study of law
in the 1970's when women's job op­tions
began to open up. During her
college years in the 1960's teaching
was at the height of a professional
woman's achievement. "But then, in
the 1970's the Women's Movement
opened up other optiqns and alter­natives,"
she said. She saw law
school as another goal to achieve.
Charlene Jones
Her interest in the law was kindled
by a Constitutional Law course she
took while an undergraduate student
at Western Kentucky University. As a
student of the 1960's she was very in­terested
in civil rights and civil liber­ties
causes. "In the '60's you couldn't
escape it," she added. Upon return­ing
to teaching in 1972 after her son
Eric was born, she became interested
in the effect court decisions were hav­ing
on civil liberties and on the
development of civil rights.
McQueen began studying law at U
of Lin 1978 after spending five years
in Washington, D.C. on Sen. Hud­dleston's
staff. He had always been
interested in law, however, upon
graduation from Eastern Kentucky
University, as a political science ma­jor,
"I was easily detoured by
politics," he said. He subsequently
worked in several political campaigns
until he eventually became involved
in Sen. Huddleston's successful bid
for Senate and he went to
Washington. Living and working in
Washington had the greatest in­fluence
on McQueen's decision to
study law. "In Washington, everyone
is a lawyer and people just assume
that working in a Senator's office,
you're a lawyer. You're conspicuous
without a law degree," he said. Mc­Queen
also realized that having a law
degree was a good base and provided
a good background for people in
government and politics. He sees his
J.D. degree as a "benefit, down the
road" in doing what he's doing now.
In addition, it provides security -
something to fall back on, because
"politics is volatile," he added. In
1978 when he managed the Senator's ­campaign
in Kentucky, he allowed
him to stay in Louisville and Mc­Queen
began law school. His
schedule in Washington "was not
conducive to going to school," it
barely is here but somehow he
manages, just as Steiner and Ms.
Jones manage.
Steiner became interested in the
study of law when, while still in high
school he worked the 11 p.m. to 7
a.m. shift in a gas station. Louisville
Police Department officers would
stop in for coffee and "to shoot the
breeze." Through those contacts he
became increasingly interested in law
and law enforcement.
He enrolled in the U of L Speed
School in 1968 but "quickly ran out
of money." He became a civilian
employee of LPD as a fingerprint ex-aminer
and switched to night school
majoring in chemistry. He joined
JCPD in 1973 and then received his
B.S. in chemistry in 1976. He was a
patrol officer for five years and a
homicide detective for two years
before joining the Planning and
Research Unit.
He made his first attempt at law
school in 1976 when working mid­night
to 8 a.m. "I never made it
through the first semester," he said.
After "regulating his life," he reap­plied
in 1978 and has been "plugging
away ever since." After graduating in
December ("hopefully") and passing
the Bar ("hopefully, hopefully") he
plans to stay on with JCPD as a legal
advisor or to work with a small law
firm on civil defense work.
Jack Steiner
Steiner also clerks with Bennett,
Bowman, Tripplet and Vittitow" for
the practical pointers and hands on
knowledge," he said, agreeing with
Ms. Jones and McQueen's deficien­cies
in the law school curriculum.
When Ms. Jones began law school
she fully intended to prepare for a
career teaching law. She has since
found that "to achieve the necessary
balance in the teaching of law you
must first have practiced law." Trial
practice is proving fascinating for her
right now. As an intern with the U.S.
Attorney's office, she has become in-volved
in trial preparation for two
specific cases. "One of them is the
first of its kind in the country and has
a potential for setting federal prece­dent,"
she said. Her immediate goal
of practicing law will help her achieve
what she sees as a balance between
practical knowledge and legal theory
which she believes is essential in every
law course.
She laments, along with many Civil
Procedure professors, that students
don't pay enough attention or know
enough about the mechanics of trial
practice. "It is very difficult for a
first year law student to understand
Civil Procedure," never mind
understanding where it all fits
together. "Maybe it should be of­fered
later in the curriculum." She
adds that the practical experience of
clerking, internships and clinical ex­perience
show students the usefulness
of the law. "It would be great to re­quire
that every student take a prac­tical
course like those," she conclud­ed.
McQueen doesn't intend to prac­tice
law when he graduates, a task he
feels he would be unprepared for
right now.
Like Ms. Jones, he feels law
courses provide too much theory and
philosophy and not enough practical
experience;" though some of the
practicing teachers do try to prepare
you to practice law." He feels ad­ministrative,
environmental and
energy law will prove most helpful in
his political work because they deal
with governmental functions. He
adds that a course in drafting legisla­tion
would be very helpful. "They'd
be surprised how many law graduates
become involved in politics and
government and deal with legislation.
I don't think they'd have any trouble
filling a course like legislation
writing," he concluded.
Ms. Jones adds that some of the
adjunct faculty have never taught
before and the courses aren't always
student oriented occasionally work­ing
a hardship on the student in the
final exam.
While night school course offerings
are limited ocassionally and time is of
the essence; all three students agree
that they would never have been able
to pursue "the idea in the back of
their minds -" to study law -
without U of L's Night Law School.

Career Opportunities Examined
By John Hutchings
and Bill Savarino
Against the background of a bleak
job market for new attorneys, the ­seventh
annual Career Night was held
on September 23 at the School of
Law.
The event was coordinated by a
student placement committee,
chaired by Frank Janoski and
directed by Placement Officer Phyllis
Liebson.
"(Career Night) exposes students
to different kinds of employment op­portunities,"
said Ms. Liebson. An
overview of available legal careers,
the program is not intended to serve
as a "first interview" for students
seeking specific employment, she ex­plained.
This year's program was larger
than ever, with over 40 different
careers being represented. Present
were spokesmen from several local
law firms, banks and accounting
firms, federal and state courts and
agencies, and Kentucky-based cor­porations.
Representatives from government
were surprisingly popular with
students. Reminded that entry into
government, especially the federal
government, is restricted at present,
the students were nevertheless in­terested
about work in the Deoart-ments
of the Interior and Health and
Human Services and the Federal
Bureau of Investigation.
Student participation in and reac­tion
to the program was generally en­thusiastic.
Though only six students
completed and returned the quest­ionaires
provided by the placement
committee, several who participated
said that they hope Career Night re­mains
an annual event at the law
school.
"I think (the program) went
beautifully," said Ms. Liebson. "I
think it caused some excitement
among the students and prompted
them to think about the future."
The only student complaints about
Career Night concerned the hurried
nature of meetings with the represen­tatives.
The large number of
spokesmen and relatively short
schedule - a little over an hour -
apparently left some students with the
feeling that they had received only
general information about diverse
career opportunities.
Ms. Liebson urged students who
found an area of law interesting at
Career Night to follow it up by atten­ding
the Tuesday noon seminars that
provide more specific information.
The seminars are co-sponsored by the
Placement Office and the Law
Forum.
Six studeiits received sCholarships from the Ashland Oil Foundation. Pictured at
the presentation are from left to right: Paul Blazer, Jr., Charles Mullins, John
Harbour, Carol Hopkins, Lesley Murray, Dean Smith, Kelson Littrell, Dean
Ewald and Marc Murphy.
Karen Holt received congratulations from John White upon winning the
Moot Court competition. Ms. Holt and Mr. White argued opposing sides in
the finals.
Winner, Runner Up
Chosen in Moot Court Contest
Karen Holt, winner of the 1980-81
Pirtle-Washer Appellate Moot Court
Competition held October 2-3 will
receive a full tuition scholarship for
one year. John White, runner-up, will
receive a one-half scholarship.
Preliminary rounds began Friday,
October 2 with Charlotte Scott
prevailing over Joan Carter and John
White over Jessica Ervin. These
rounds were judged by Professors
James Ragan and Nathan Lord and
by Tim Salansky, a graduate and
former vice president of the Moot
Court Board. He is now associated
with the firm Baird, Kirven, Westfall
and Talbott.
Quarter final rounds began on
Saturday morning with Karen Holt
winning over Cindy Stone; Charlotte
Scott over Gary Padgett; Bob
Thieman over John Hutchings and
John White over Bob Steinmetz.
Winners of the quarter finals ad­vanced
to the semi-finals. There
Karen Holt prevailed over Charlotte
Scott and John White over Bob
Thiemann. In the final rounds Karen ·
Holt won over John White.
Judges for the competition includ­ed
several local attorneys: Tom Jarrel
and John Stewart from Segal,
Isenberg, Sales and Stewart; Schuyler
Olt from Greenebaum, Doll &
McDonald; Michael Khouri and
Michael Harris, Corporate Council
for Jeff-Boat; Scott Miller Jr. in
private practice; James Apple in
private practice; Richard Trautwein
from Barnett & Alagia; and John
Cordonnier in private practice.
Bailiffs included first year
students: Marc Murphy, Randy
Ream, Pat Welch, Anne Scharp and
Charles Alfano.
How to Cope with Stress
(Continued from page 1)
ing stress:
1. Act to alter your relationship
with your environment. Identify the
problem (stressor), any "splinter"
problems and attempt to handle them
satisfactorily;
2. Anticipate future stress and at­tempt
to armor yourself against it.
Don't work so hard preparing for all
imagined problems that you become
overwhelmed by an unexpected pro­blem
simply because you have no
plan or time for countermeasures;
3. Eat a correct diet and EXER­CISE.
"Exercise helps you rid
yourself of the physical byproducts of
your daily preparation to 'kill the
tiger'," said Dr. Skinner.
4. Set realistic goals and implement
a realistic lifestyle. This gives you
something to work for and to achieve
which is vital to mental health.
5. Most important is healthy in­volvement
with others. "Other peo­ple
are the only 'reality mirrors' we
have and their support mediates and
reduces the effects of stress. Talking
things over, having compassion,
understanding and forgiveness for
others, strengthens one's own ability
to resolve stress and face reality.
