STREET: Locals want help
► From Pago t
"You’re supposed to tty to help the
community instead of throwing
them in here and locking the gate,”
Baugh said. “[University students
are] just trying to have a good
time. Game night, they scared.
They can’t even walk past.”
Baugh said the community has
yet to receive help from govern
ment agencies.
“Y’all need to come out and see
the families,” he said. “And see how
they living and see if the kids are
OK and see this and see that.
That’s how you do it the right way.
But they don’t even care. I’m say
ing there’s not a soul out there who
cares.”
Baugh said he could fill a book
with everything he has experienced
while “trapped” in this toxic envi
ronment with his two sons.
“People be out here with the
drug thing at night,” he said.
"Smokin’ pot, or doin’ this or that,
poppin’ pills, shootin'. And the kids
be around like it’s a wrestling
match or something... If your kids
around stuff and seeing stuff like
that every day, they can’t help but
to grow up and being like this.”
Since January, Hickman Drive
has been the site of 30 theft-related
cases, 23 batteries, 20 assaults and
one manslaughter.

involved and government should
welcome their involvement.
Students should be included in
developing the Downtown Master
Plan. Actually, I think we ought
to make the UGA School of
Environmental Design our part
ner in its development. Students
can help develop more respectful
and effective methods of dealing
with underage drinking and
downtown problems. Why can’t
we combine our resources and
make more and more of Athens a
teaching opportunity?
Do you have any affiliation with
the University?
Nancy Denson: I am a Bulldog,
BBA 1989. My husband and old
est daughter also are UGA alum
ni.
Spencer Frye: I came to
school here in 1986 as a student
in the Terry College of Business.
My goal was to become an inter
national businessman. After 2
years, I left and moved down to
Haiti where I learned a great deal
about the country and culture. I
came back to school after a year

Among other initiatives, Maj.
Greene said additional downtown
bike officers have been told to sur
vey the area periodically.
Bethel Midtown Village property
management has also taken steps
to improve neighborhood life.
“The most recent thing is they
have put up cameras,” Greene said.
“Some stuff they don’t pick up well,
but the fact that they’re out there
has a deterring effect.”
Management has also installed
a gate which is intended to keep
unwanted visitors out.
Baugh said, however, some peo
ple simply ram the gate open.
The most promising improve
ments may not be in the neighbor
hood at all, but in the residents.
Marissa Joyner, a member of the
residence association board, said
they have implemented programs
to “help better the individuals,”
not necessarily the neighborhood.
These include after-school tutor
ing, life skills classes and a GED
program which enrolls 12 residents,
according to Joyner.
“Without an education you will
be stuck in a neighborhood like
this,” she said. “[We want] to help
educate so they can move on and
do something productive with their
lives.”

▲ Bethel Mkttown Village resident IsabeHHe Green said
she feels safe raising her daughter on Hickman Drive.
Spencer Frye: When I was a
sophomore we had a tremendous
snow in Athens. I and some
friends from Russell Hall spent
the whole day sledding down
Baxter hill on giant sheet pans.
You could ride down that hill for
what seemed to be forever before
you slowed down almost to
Lumpkin. Another time when
they tore down Stegman Pool
where the Tate Center parking lot
is now I asked the contractor if I
could have bricks from the build
ing rather than throwing them in
the dumpster.
Charlie Maddox: Being a mem
ber of the first Black Student
Union before it became a recog
nized organization on campus.
Glenn Stegall: I remember my
first football game between the
hedges freshman year. The feeling
of 90,000 people screaming
around you is one of a kind. The
fighter jet that flies over before
kickoff adds to the energy of the
crowd. I don’t think anyone could
forget their first Georgia football
game.

Building catches Are near
student apartments
An abandoned building
near downtown caught fire
and burned for nearly an
hour Monday morning
before being extinguished
by Athens-Clarke County
firemen, according to fire
investigator Larry Ford.
The Oconee Street
building, which sits close
to Steeplechase
Apartments and the stee
ple from St. Mary’s
Episcopal Church where
R.E.M. played its first con
cert in 1980, caught fire
around 4 a.m. The fire was
almost completely extin
guished about 45 minutes
later with no reported inju
ries, Ford told The Red &
Black Monday.
Ford also said he is
“analyzing all the informa
tion [they] gathered before
coming to a conclusion” as
to the cause of the fire.
Although it’s too early
in the investigation to tell,
Ford said these kinds of
fires are often caused by
the homeless using the
building for shelter.
Heating elements used to
keep warm or candles for
lighting could all be the
culprit.
A parked car’s wind
shield, which was hit by
falling debris, was the only
damage to surrounding
property, according to
Ford.
Felony theft reported in
Ramsey
A University student
told police he had $650
worth of items stolen from
him in the Ramsey Center
on Oct. 26 at 4 p.m.
The student reported
he left a gym bag against
the wall while he played
basketball in the Ramesy
Center.
He later discovered his
wallet and iPhone missing.
According to the
University Police report,
Ramsey staff said they will
provide security footage to
police as they investigate
the theft.
