UNDERAGE: Technology
changes ID creation
► From Page 1
students had his or her own desktop computer, and most
students weren’t willing to pay the SSO to SIOO required
to have an ID made.
University Police Chief Jimmy Williamson has been on
campus for 22 years, and he said fake ID use among col
lege students has become more prevalent, especially as
technology has become more advanced..
“Back in the day when fake IDs were made, it was
typically some sort of graphic arts student or someone
like that who had some real talent —and it required tal
ent —and they would make them," Williamson said. “But
with scanners and the technologies that are out there,
it’s easier for people to counterfeit things on their com
puters.”
That’s what 2007 alumna Jennifer Patrick had to do.
Patrick was too tall to take one of her sorority sisters’
old IDs to use downtown.
At nearly 6 feet, she was sure she’d be denied access if
she showed an ID stating she was only 5 feet 4 inches.
But she quickly found a solution Microsoft Paint.
“My freshman year, we found a guy who was able to
scan in your ID and print off a paper copy from Microsoft
Paint,” Patrick said. “And so for three years, I used this
piece of paper that was covered in plastic wrap and sand
wiched in the clear part of my wallet.”
And it worked every time ... almost.
“It worked at every place except for Boar’s Head and
Wild Wings because they would ask you to take out your
license,” Patrick said. “And because I couldn’t actually
take it out of the wallet, I would just have to walk away.”
Jones said when he was in school, bouncers usually
checked IDs, but they weren’t too strict.
Sometimes, when the line to the bar snaked out the
door, they barely glanced at the ID and let the underage
drinker in. Other times, they would deny access, but they
wouldn’t call the police.
Emily Clines, executive director for the Georgia divi
sion of Mothers Against Drunk Driving, said this lack of
concern on the part of bouncers and alcohol providers is
the root of the problem not fake ID use.
“The person who's checking the ID, they would know
it’s a fake ID if they were really checking it and going
through it,” Clines said. “It’s very rare that you’re going
to find a really good fake ID that could pass for a real
one. It’s the people at the bars not checking them cor
rectly. It’s the older students on campus buying the alco
hol for the younger students. It’s those kinds of things.”
Williamson offered a similar explanation for the prolif
eration of fake ID use.
He said behind fake IDs is a culture of irresponsible

▲ Five Points Bottle Shop discourages fake ID
use by prominently displaying offenders’ fakes.
drinking, one with dangerous side effects that force law
makers to change the rules.
"We’re having irresponsible consumption, and no one’s
wanting to take responsibility for that overconsump
tion,” Williamson said. "Everybody’s wanting to external
ize, so now the external factors have clamped down,
which has required these other parties to try to do things
that bypass the system.”
But that bypassing continues.
“It’s Athens," Patrick said. “No one is ultimately con
cerned with are you who you say you are. Because when
you’re in a dark bar, all the bouncers care about is wheth
er he looked at your ID and it said you were 21.”
But she said with fake IDs come real responsibilities.
“Ultimately when it comes down to fake IDs, it’s all
about personal responsibility,” she said. “Athens teaches
you how to be a grown-up. and if you have a piece of
paper that says you're a grown-up. then you have to act
like one.”

and she still got some.”
Ford was not the only
one in this situation.
Lynsey Jackson, also a
senior undergraduate
student, said she was on
her way to get the tickets
when she received a text
message telling her not
to bother.
“I was really upset. I
have been at UGA for a
while, and Ludacrls is one
of my top three artists,”
she said.
However. Jackson was
determined to go to the
concert.
“I sent a message to
everyone who I knew got
one and told them I
would pay for it. I also
checked Craigslist and
Facebook Marketplace,”
Jackson said.
Eventually she was
able to buy a ticket from
a co-worker for about
S3O.
“I thought that was
pretty cheap. There
would be people out there
that would pay SSO or S6O
to see Ludacris in
Athens,” she said.
Ford said the
University needed a bet
ter system for the tickets
that would keep the stu
dents’ needs in mind.
“Some people just
don’t have the time to
spend the entire day wait
ing for tickets. There has
to be a better way to do
it,” she said. “I think

She suggested also
putting the tickets on
students’ IDs so that
University students
would have priority over
others.
“I know it is a paper
ticket. It could really go
to anyone,” Ford said. “I
think UGA students
should betible to go first.
It is our homecoming.”
Jackson said she was
also in favor of an online
system since traveling to
Tate is not convenient for
all students.
“I am an animal sci
ence major since fresh
man year. I have been on
North Campus for class
twice,” she said. “Having
it at Tate, even though it
is the center of campus,
is a huge Inconvenience
for me. Not only do I have
to pay for parking, but I
also have to stand in
line.”
Jackson also suggest
ed changing the location
of the concert in order to
accommodate more stu
dents.
“Legion Field is only
so big. The intramural
fields we could use,” she
said.
Additionally, Jackson
said that after years of
paying student fees
which go toward events
such as this concert
she felt gypped for not
being able to attend.
“I feel like I paid so
many fees, and it really
made me mad the one
time I really wanted to do
something I couldn’t,”
she said.
