College of Business close to $6 million building fund goal
By LARA CREASY
Staff Writer
The Terry College of Business is
close to achieving its goal of raising
$6 million for the building of
Sanford Hall, an extension of
Brooks Hall and a new home for the
college.
The original goal for the fund
raising campaign was $5 million,
but because it was met so easily, the
college extended the campaign in or
der to make the building larger and
to provide the latest technology for
classrooms, said Albert Niemi, dean
of Terry College.
“The fund-raising campaign has
gone marvelously well,” he said.
Although the architect for the
project hasn’t been hired yet, cam
pus planning has done a schematic
design to estimate the size of the
building and how it will fit into the
area between Brooks and Park
Halls, said David Lunde, director of
campus planning.
An auditorium will be built into
the slope between the buildings,
Lunde said.
The second floor will house a stu
dent lounge and advising offices.
Classrooms will be located on the
lower floors.
Lunde estimates a construction
cost of about $3 million and a build
ing time of about a year and a half.
“Current conditions are sub
standard, so (the new building) will
be a real asset for students," said
JefT Netter, professor of banking
and finance.
“All student facilities will be in
the same place,” said Jay Aronson,
professor of management, who said
he is grateful business classes will
no longer have to meet in the jour
nalism building or Park Hall.
Funds are being raised for the
project through a combination of
private donations and corporate
pledges.
Niemi said Charles Sanford,
chairman and CEO of Bankers
Trust Company, donated $1.25 mil
lion to the project, and an anony
mous donor contributed $1 million.
The Coca-Cola Company and five
private donors will have classrooms
named in honor of their six-figure
contributions, Niemi said.
The Terry College Alumni Board
made a donation of $100,000 for a
seminar room to be named in honor
of Niemi.
All of the major regional banks,
including Trust Company,
Wachovia, NationsBank, Bank
South, First Union and the Synovas
Financial Corporation, which owns
Athens First Bank & TVust, will also
have classrooms named in honor of
their contributions.
The college has also launched a
campaign in which individual brass-
plated bricks to be displayed in the
main hall of the building can be pur
chased for $1,000.
Corporate logos will be displayed
for a donation of $5,000.
Recycling isn’t only path to environmentalism
By STACEE DANIEL
Staff Writer
Recycling obviously helps the environment,
but many may not be aware of the vast number
of alternatives that exist.
Marshall Darley, a professor of botany, said
consumers should avoid using products that end
up being recycled in the first place.
“Select products with only one package
instead of three layers,” he said.
Frank Golley, an ecology professor,
said he would like people to think about
where the products are coming from.
“If you are purchasing products that
are coming from people that are being ex
ploited just so the price will be less, you
are contributing to whatever makes them
miserable,” he said. “Every time you buy
something, you vote.”
Things going into a system should be
managed more carefully, according to
Eugene Odum, director emeritus of the
Institute of Ecology.
“Input management, the chemicals
that go into agriculture or into a plant,
need to be managed,” Odum said.
Darley said people should also try to
use less water.
“Put a brick in your toilet. Fill up a
plastic bottle with water and put it in
your tank,” he said. “Install water-con-
serving shower heads.”
“Right now they’re using good water to
get rid of waste,” Darley said. “In the long
term they need to redesign waste dispos
al systems.”
Several other environmentally sound sugges
tions exist.
“Use your own bags when you go to the grocery
store, just little things like that,” Darley said.
“Don’t use styrofoam,” said Odum. “It’s not re
cyclable.”
He also recommended people use fewer chem
icals around their homes and in their gardens.

Install water conserving shower

Use your own bag in stores.
Select products with minimal
amounts of packaging.
Place a small glass or plastic bottle
in your your toilet tank.
A void products packaged in
polystyrene foam.
Carpool or try to complete as many
errands as possible in one trip.
Use fewer chemicals in the garden.
Think about what you are buying
and the effects it will have on the
environment.
“Grow food without using so many chemicals,”
he said. “If you see a bug, before you spray it try
to determine if it is a helpful bug.”
Darley and Odum both mentioned car pooling
and discussed the problem with gas prices.
“Gas is cheap,” Odum said. “People have gone
back to using bigger, more powerful cars that use
more gas.”
“If we were paying the true cost, we would be
more careful,” Darley said.
“By real cost I mean the fact that it’s
non-replaceable and the environmental
damage (it does),” he said. Darley suggest
ed keeping the home at optimal tempera
tures.
“Don’t make it any warmer than it
needs to be in the winter or any cooler than
it needs to be in the summer,” he said.
“Ask yourself, ‘Does it really need be to be
this cool or this warm?’ Set it at a temper
ature and leave it there.”
“The sad part is that our economy is
based on consumption,” Odum said. “We
need to reduce the things that damage the
environment.”
People need to think about what they
are doing and not act thoughtlessly, Golley
said. People need to make their actions re
flect what they believe in, he said.
“We live in the richest country in the
world and we’ve trashed it,” Golley said.
“We’ve acted like spoiled children,” he
said. “We want everyone to save us, our
mother or the government. Eventually the
slackers will be gone and those who know
how to think will be left.”
