Manager Ron Hamlin said
the University is applying
for federal assistance to
buy hybrid electric and
biodiesel buses.
Campus Transit brought
a hybrid bus to its facility
on Riverbend Road
Thursday to exhibit.
Hamlin contacted The Red
& Black about the event.
“I think (switching to
hybrid buses) sets a good
example for other commu
nities,” Hamlin said. “I

that day by college officials.
Tom Jackson, vice presi
dent for public affairs, said
no plans have been made
to keep Warren from teach
ing this fall. He is sched
uled to instruct in the
spring, Jackson added.
Alan Ray Spies, an assis
tant pharmacy professor at
Samford University, said in
an affidavit that he learned
in May 2007 Warren was
giving NAPLEX questions
to students.
A senior administrator
at Samford’s School of
Pharmacy, who did not
want to be named due to
the pending investigation,
said he was aware students
at the school used Warren’s
review course.
The news began to
reverberate at universities
nationwide this week.
Michael McKenzie, a
senior associate dean for
professional affairs at the
University of Florida’s
College of Pharmacy, said
to his knowledge none of
the college’s students had
participated in Warren’s
review course. He said he
recognized the potential
effect of the investigation.

Hamlin said a switch
would increase the fuel
economy 25 to 40 percent.
Even with the applica
tion sent, the earliest the
University can buy the new
buses is in two years,
Hamlin said. He said the
buses would cost more
than half a million dollars
each compared to a
University bus at $350,000.
Nacha Davis, a fulltime
bus operator, said she had
her own reasons to be
excited about the transit
system being more envi
ronmentally friendly.
“I just became a grand
mother,” Davis said. “We

anyone else.”
Davis said she would be
proud to work at the first
University taking steps
toward hybrid technology.
Jennifer M. Strickland, a
member of Students for
Environmental Awareness,
said she supports every
method the University
employs to become more
energy efficient.
“To make (the buses)
hybrid would be fabulous.
It would show that the
University is taking steps
toward, using more renew
able resources,” Strickland,
a junior from Tifton, said.
A recent graduate from
the pharmacy school at
The University of Colorado
at Boulder, who requested
not to be identified, was
unable to take the licen
sure test he scheduled for
Monday. He said he has
$130,000 in student loans
and a baby due in
November.
“I’m just a pawn in the
game,” the graduate said.
“My career and profession
hang in the balance.”

Adams' 10 th Anniversary
“Hardly a day goes by,”
he said, that he does not
speak with a politician.
He works with legisla
tors and the governor on
many issues, including the
budget.
Adams will play a role
in the University’s
attempts to acquire the
National Bio and Agro
Defense Facility, a place
for scientists to research
such zoonic diseases as
the West Nile Virus, avian
influenza and anthrax. He
applauded the prepara
tions taken by state lead
ers and said he is positive
about the University’s
chances of securing the
facility.
“It’s been a team effort
led by the governor.”
Other aspects of his job
demand a significant
amount of time as well.
Adams said he spends
about one-fourth of his
time raising money for the
University.
In an interview, he men
