Greek seminar
tackles hazing
Campus leaders urge group
members to act responsibly
By KATIE VALENTINE
The Red and Black
Tragic events surround
ing fraternity and sorority
rituals can be prevented if
students come forward
when they suspect hazing
is taking place, panel mem
bers discussed in a presen
tation.
“You are your brother or
sister’s keeper,” said Lamar
Bryant, adviser to the
National Pan-Hellenic
Council,Wednesday at “I
Stand Accused,” a presen
tation about Greek com
munity hazing.
“If you are in a fraternity
or sorority, you can protect
the members of your chap
ter as well as the future of
your chapter itself, if you
stand up to members who
are suggesting hazing
behavior,” Bryant said.
The seminar, which was
hosted by the Chi Epsilon
chapter of Zeta Phi Beta
Sorority Inc., was meant
to educate the public about
hazing in the Greek com
munity.
Under Georgia state law,
those found guilty of haz
ing are guilty of “a misde
meanor of a high and
aggravated nature.”
The University defines
hazing as “any intentional
negligent or reckless action,
activity or situation which
causes another pain,
embarrassment, ridicule or
harassment, regardless of
the willingness of the par
ticipant.”
Hazing allegations often
result in suspension of a
chapter or permanent
removal from the

Those accused of hazing
often are charged with
assault or battery, in which
the outcome is far worse
than a misdemeanor, said
Kathy Davis, professor
emeritus in social work.
“Hazing is serious busi
ness, and it has serious
implications,” she said.
“There are consequences
for everyone, not just the
perpetrators. Everyone in
the organization suffers.”
Eric Atkinson, assistant
to the vice
president of
Student
Affairs, gave
the example
of a ritual
gone wrong
at the
University.

Ben Grantham, a member

his life in a car accident
during a hazing ritual.
He was handcuffed when
the SUV he was riding in
hit a tree and flipped. His
death led to the temporary
disbanding of the fraterni
ty.
Claudia Shamp, associ
ate dean of Greek Life, said
every case reported is
investigated, no matter
how little evidence exists.
Students can report hazing
by calling the UGA Greek
Life Hazing Hotline at 706-

day or night and is com
pletely anonymous. For

“infinitely stronger than it
was 12 or 20 years ago,”
and enumerated the five
actions he said the
University must under
take to continue to gener
ate revenue.
Shift fundraising
efforts to schools
“What we will see in the
next few years is a shift
from overall generic
University-based fundrais
ing to a focus on school,
college and unit-based
fundraising,” Adams said.
He said the responsibil
ity will shift to individual
colleges and schools to
build support among their
constituencies to provide
for future fundraising
efforts.
“The task at hand is to
identify those people,
build relationships with
them and connect their
resources to our needs as
we did so successfully in
the Archway campaign,”
he said.
Increase faculty’s
grant fundrafsing
Adams said the
University’s research
grants “are now on an
upward trajectory” and
faculty must be more
aggressive in pursuing
grant funding.
“I have no doubt that
there is additional
research currently under
way at UGA that is deserv
ing of such funding, if we
are willing to do the work
of seeking it and applying
for it,” he said. “In what is
a very competitive grant
environment, we simply
have to do more and do
better.”

Increase salaries
with tuition hike
“We must raise tuition
at least to the mid-range
of Southern Regional
Education Board flag
ships,” Adams said, not
ing the University has
some of the lowest tuition
on the list.
He said University
tuition is below our com
parable Southern institu
tions with the amount of
SBO below Alabama, S3OO
below Tennessee, $2,700
below South Carolina and
$1,500 below Kentucky.
“To pay faculty and staff
adequately, we will have
to move tuition over time
tb the middle of the
[Southern Regional
Education Board],” he
said.
Fund academics
with auxiliaries
Adams said he will rec
ommend to the Cabinet
that the University assess
a percentage of auxiliary
revenues to support the
academic mission of the
University. Auxiliary units
include athletics, housing,
student activities, food
services, transportation
and parking.
“The University pro

tive and leadership sup

delivered his annual State of the University
address at the Chapel Thursday afternoon.

he said. “Nobody comes
to UGA, after all, for our
parking.”
Increase credit
hour production
Credit hour production
and enrollment have
remained flat for the past
five years, and the
University must produce
more credit hours, Adams
said.
“Call me biased, but I
believe a credit hour at
the University of Georgia
is the very best credit
hour in the system,” he
said.

ideals may not work.
“There is no general con
sensus that his proposals
are what is needed,”
Lastrapes said. “There are
other types of proposals to
get the economy back on
track.”
Brock Tessman, an assis
tant professor of interna
tional affairs —with exper
tise in U.S. foreign policy
said the future of foreign
relations is more certain.
“There will be a shift
away from the use of hard
power military means
and force —and a shift
toward soft power trying
to get others to want what
we want,” Tessman said in
a phone interview
Wednesday.
He noted the Israel-
Palestine cease-fire as a
testament to Obama’s sta
tus abroad.
But he said world peace
is not on the horizon. “I
don’t see any way to remove
our military presence from
the Middle East,” Tessman
said.
He said he thinks Obama
will remove American
troops from Iraq before the
2011 deadline, but he won
ders whether they then will
be sent to Afghanistan ,

potential for enhancing
the University’s bottom
line,” he said.
Adams urged to
“remember that the only
end of this resource acqui
sition is to better serve
students and faculty.”
“The choice for us, again,
is clear carp and moan
and sit by while the qual
ity we have built at this
University declines, or
produce ourselves through
this challenge,” he said.

and Russia in a second war
on terror.
Choosing the new U.S.
Supreme Court justices
and other judicial positions
is another important job
awaiting Obama, said John
Maltese, head of the politi
cal science department.
“It is one of the most
important legacies to a
president,” Maltese said.
“He can make federal
courts more receptive to
individual rights and influ
ence decisions that affect
everyone.”
Maltese also noted a pos
sible legacy in Obama’s
health care plan.
“Finding a way to pay for
it in this climate may be
difficult. There is a mood
for change at the moment
and, if he is able to tap into
that, he may gain support
for some sort of health care
initiative,” he said.
With all of this hope for
change, Derrick Alridge,
director of the African
American studies depart
ment, said this election has
been a catalyst in improv
ing race relations in the
United States.
“By no means is racism
over. Racism will continue
to persist. It just won’t be
the front issue it has been
in decades past,” Alridge
said.
