xxxchurch.com —a Web
site promoting a reli
gious view on pornogra
phy squared off in a
sold-out debate Tuesday
night in the Georgia
Hall at the Tate Center.
Gross and Jeremy,
who met at a pornogra
phy convention, have
been battling wits in
The Pom Debate at col
leges across the coun
try.
The event was spon
sored by the Ideas &
Issues sector of
University Union.
“We’ve never had
anything about a topic
like this on campus
before,” said Marc
Lamotte, student affairs
specialist.
“We thought this
would be an interesting
event,” Lamotte said.
Several students
offered money for the
sold-out free tickets.
One offered S2O to any
one who would give her
a ticket to the show.
Another traded tickets
to a football game.
“This man is a living
legend,” said Jake
Walter, a junior from
Watkinsville.
“He’s had sex with
more women than I’ve
met in my entire life.”
Gross began by con
demning the pornogra
phy industry for degrad
ing women, being easily
accessible for minors
and creating unrealistic
expectations.
“It’s not real, and it’s
not what you get,” Gross
said.

Campus, community benefit
from ‘student volunteerism’
By DENECHIA POWELL
The Red & Black
School just started and schedules
are busier than ever, but the Center for
Leadership & Service wants students
to take a little time to help others.
The University’s third annual volun
teer fair is the place to find several
organizations dedicated to giving back
to the campus and community.
Anna Beale, assistant director of the
CLS, said the two previous fairs have
been a success.
“We have many returning agencies
and organizations who have found com
mitted and passionate volunteers
through the fair,” she said.
Beale said there is a real need for
student volunteerism in Athens-Clarke
Saturday, and the younger
Dooley hasn’t hesitated to
draw from his father’s vast
experience.
“He’s been a good person
to bounce things off of,” he
said.
“I think anytime it’s your
first year you’re questioning
whether what you’re doing is
the right thing. I feel good
about it, and most of the

boosted
by chain
of wins
By ROBINNS EXUME
The Red & Black
After stomping the competition in
the Georgia Southern Invitational,
the Georgia volleyball team will look
to collect its fourth consecutive win
when it plays today at Mercer.
With another win,
the team can become
the first to start a
season 4-0 since the
1993 squad, which
won its first eight
games of the year.

“We are really confident now,” she

More space
essential to
progress of
vet school
By TOM MARINE
The Red & Black
Officials at The College of
Veterinary Medicine say they are try
ing to raise the bar to compete with
other prestigious vet school but need
more space to offset growing fields
and class sizes.
Paige Carmichael, associate dean
for academic affairs, and Public
Relations Director Tracy Giese said
the college works with its available
space at the comer of Carlton Street
and East Campus Road but still runs
into problems from that limited
area.
“We need anew teaching hospital
desperately,” Carmichael said. “The
University administration is aware
and behind our efforts to do so. We
have been doing a lot of rearranging
to function in the limited space.”
Brent Credille, a senior from
Greensboro, said he still receives a
great education from the college but
becomes frustrated when patient
animals are turned away due to space
concerns.
“We have a huge case load, but not
enough space,” Credille said.
“Sometimes we just run out of stalls
for the patients.”
