High 74 | Low 66 ONLINE: wwwj6dandWack.com Student eited for survey remarks By PAUL RUDDLE The Red & Black A student who wrote disparaging comments on an anonymous course evaluation now finds himself facing University sanctions. Brian Beck, a landscape architecture mgjor from Gordon, was found in viola tion of three University Code of Conduct regulations in a decision announced last week by University Judiciary. Beck violated the code due to: ► Disruption of the teaching evalua tion process >• Grounds of multiplicity ► Harassment based on presumed knowledge of the associate professor’s sexual orientation DOGS’ WINNING STREAK COLLAPSES SOCCER Miss. State 1, Georgia 0 Ole Miss 0, Georgia 0 Soccer team has ‘unlucky' weekend By ADAM UPPER The Red & Black The No. 17 Georgia soc cer team lost Friday for the first time in more than a month, snapping a nine game unbeaten streak before tying Ole Miss Sunday. The last time Georgia lost was Sept. 14 to No. 10 South Carolina. The unbeaten streak was the longest in Georgia’s 13-year history. Despite outshooting Mississippi State 28 to nine and taking eight cor ner kicks without conced ing one, Georgia (12-2-2, 5-1-2) failed to score for only the second time this season. Georgia goalkeep er Michelle Betos didn’t make a single save, as Mississippi State (6-8-2, 2-4-2) scored on the only shot it placed on goal. In minute 81, Katelyn Graben’s shot from out side the penalty box deflected off a Georgia defender and went into the goal. “We were a bit unlucky,” team captain Joni Vickers said. “We didn’t finish. We had some good opportu nities. At this level, you’ve got to finish because cha nces are hard to come by.” Georgia had a chance to rebound Sunday after noon against Ole Miss (6-6-3, 3-3-1), but the fix ture ended in a scoreless tie. Although Georgia out shot the Rebels six to two, none of the Bulldogs’ strikes put much pressure See SOCCER, Page 7 Local magazine’s new edition to launch tonight By JENNIFER JACKSON The Red & Black For something to do other than watch Monday night football, locals will come together tonight for the celebration of the new est issue of The Georgia Review.

On the first course evaluation, Beck was asked “What aspects of the course could use improvement or change?” Beck wrote: “Joe Disponzio is a com plete asshole. I hope he chokes on a dick, gets AIDS and dies. To hell with all gay teachers who are terrible with their jobs and try to fail students!” During a phone interview with The Red & Black, Disponzio said, “As always, there were good comments and bad comments. I am a difficult profes sor. After receiving the comment [in January] I went to my dean about it. I was not amused by it.” s*. Mr hWßmm m off > Mm' aSßsajpisggsaf Sl*#®!®? ■ ■P * tSKv;:'', wm.

A fifth woman, also a University student, told police a man fol lowed her home early Thursday morning after she declined his offer for a ride. Police said the case may be related to two abductions that occurred during the Georgia- South Carolina football game weekend. The man matches the description of the suspect from the previous incidents, police said. The student said she was walking home from downtown Athens with three other women when a suspicious man approached them. When they were near their home at Whistlebury Condominiums on North Avenue at 2:15 a.m., a car pulled up and a man offered to take them home. They told the man they all lived nearby and didn’t need a ride, according to the police report. The woman said the man drove away, the four of them walked home, and someone knocked at the door 10 minutes later. The woman had enough time to change clothes, she told police. The woman opened the door because she was expecting a friend to visit, but it was the man who offered the women a ride. “I had no idea while it was happening that it could have been the same guy,” the woman said during a phone interview Sunday. “I just wanted to go to bed and get him away.” She described the suspect as a 5’6” male between 25 to 30 years old, who had a brown crew cut and was a “stocky” 190 pounds. He wore a black polo shirt and baggy, long black shorts. “I didn’t realize until the detective talked to me that the appearances were the same,” she said. “The detective continues to contact me.” The man asked to come inside because it was cold outside. The woman told him, “She was about to go to bed because she had been drinking and had to get some sleep,” the report said. But he continued to try to enter the apartment, according to the report. He put his hand on her hip and tried to kiss her. The woman told him her boyfriend lived with her and pushed him back, but he grabbed her arm gently and told her it was the first time he had ever really gone after a girl.
