Wednesday, October 13, aoio | The Red a Black 2 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.

"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.” 38 Put in (he bank 40 Human trunk 41 Young girt 43 Sharp shooter Annie 44 “Reader's long running publication 46 Car for Unser 26 Influence 27 Ene & Ontario 28 Actor Sandler 29 Evicting 30 togeth er; com bined 32 Ms. Buzzi 33 Lyric poem 35 Be bold 37 Foot cover ing KINS 2100 LEGL 2700 LEGL 4400 MARK 3000 MARK 4000 MARK 4100 MARK 4200 MARK 4250 MARK 4500 MARK 4600 MARS 1010 MARS 1020 MGMT 3000 MIBO 2500 MIBO 3500 MIST 2090 MSIT 3000 MUSI 2020 MUSI 2040 MUSI 2060 NMIX 2020 PBIO 1210 PBIO 1220 PHIL 1000 PHIL 1500 PHIL 2200 PHIL 2500 PHYS 1010 PHYS 1111 PHYS 1112 POLS 1101 NEWS CRIME NOTEBOOK Wire reported stolen from University construction site About $9,000 of wire was reported stolen Monday from the con struction area near the Butts-Mehre Heritage • • n Leather downtown Athens' coolest boots! uqs^T mu*r a I I * -^“V BVUIM <Jpß@rn 47 Easy gait 48 Ardent 49 Pealed 50 Donate 52 Tiny bit of land 53 Bills or Bulls 55 Charge 56 Transmit a paper quickly 57 Fraternity letter Now Open tor Happy Hour Thurs - Fri. - Sat.

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 something like the foot ball tickets [ system 1, something first-come, Hall, according to a University Police report.

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.
