MY HUMPS

By JOE WILLIAMSTHE RED & BLACK

The move from musician to desk jockey is typical — not so much the move from cubicle to center stage.

For Matthew Taylor, bass player and backing vocalist for pop-punkers Motion City Soundtrack, the nine-to-five life went directly through the shredder without even a two weeks notice.

Jumping on board with the band in 2002, Taylor was soon on the forefront of the music scene like he could never have imagined, leaving his job at Philip Morris to become a

rock star. “Playing [on Conan

O’Brien’s show] was pretty crazy,” Taylor said. “Shaking Tom Arnold’s hand after we fin-ished playing, that was some-thing I never thought I would do. Then fist bumping Howie Mandel, that was just a huge deal to me.”

Motion City Soundtrack will be hitting the stage tonight at the 40 Watt following the January release of their fourth album, “My Dinosaur Life.”

“I think all of us just kind of had in our brains that we want-ed to rock a little harder with this one,” Taylor said. “We didn’t plan anything. We didn’t say, ‘We should have a softer song here.’ We just wrote a lot of songs, then chose our favorite from the batch.”

Produced by semi-pop-punk

god Mark Hoppus of Blink-182, the album took a serious approach at song writing — with a plethora of jokes and laughing in between.

“It’s a very loose environ-ment,” Taylor said. “It’s a good balance of work, laughs and play. Just bouncing ideas off each other. For me, the most important thing is being com-fortable. He makes you feel comfortable —

Students in the University’s Terry College of Business will see a more structured pre-requisite schedule come next fall — but administrators see it as an oppor-tunity, not a burden.

A new curriculum system,

called Foundations First, will require students to enroll in their business foundation core courses within their first two semesters of Terry College. Students will then be assigned to a “red” or a “black” cohort depending on major.

“It really came about from a charge from the dean to review the undergraduate curriculum, so

we mapped out our peer and aspi-rational schools and tried to find out places where we were differ-ent from our peer and aspirational schools in good ways and bad ways,” said Henry Munneke, a professor in the Department of Real Estate and member of the Undergraduate Programs Committee. “We decided to look

internally and say, ‘What aren’t we doing very well?’ What came up was we were having students who were taking foundation classes when they were seniors.”

Under Foundations First, stu-dents must enroll in 7.5 core cur-riculum hours each semester for

Pot users are not police’s focus

By EVA VASQUEZTHE RED & BLACK

For those who plan on celebrating “4/20” today, University Chief of Police Jimmy Williamson would advise you not to do so in your dorm room.

“The number one way people get arrested for marijuana on campus is that they smoke in the resi-dence halls and a neighbor complains,” Williamson said. “The majority of the time we are getting a call from a student.”

Sometimes a person gets caught for marijuana when they are stopped by police for an unrelated rea-son.

Williamson said non-complaint related discov-eries typically stem from DUIs and other traffic arrests that lead to police searching a car and finding marijuana.

In 2009, University police arrested 36 individuals on marijuana- related charges, Lt. Eric Dellinger said. Five of those individuals were female.

Nine of the individuals were arrested by University police in March.

“It’s not like the police are doing anything really covert to catch folks,” Williamson said. “We like to let people’s actions dictate

‘PUMPED TO PLAY’

By SARA CALDWELLTHE RED & BLACK

Monday night, cheers rang from Foley Field’s dugouts and stands as people cheered on and supported a special brand of athlete.

The University’s Special

Olympics student group, called Special Olympics at UGA, host-ed “Homeruns for Hometown Rivals,” a five-inning baseball game for Special Olympics ath-letic participants from Athens-Clarke County.

After partnering with the University’s baseball team, the

Special Olympics student group started organizing the event in January.

Senior Sissy Weldon, an exec-utive board member with the group, got the ball rolling with Facebook messages to some of the University’s baseball play-ers. The players put her in touch

with the team’s coach.“I met with coach David

Perno about doing an event with them, and we decided a baseball game would be the best,” Weldon said.

Bleeding toes lead to arrestUniversity student Chelsea Lynn

Tynan, 18, was arrested and charged with underage possession of alcohol and possession of a fake ID on Saturday at 1:14 a.m.

According to the University Police report, a police officer arrived at Creswell Hall in reference to an injured person who was bleeding from her feet.

Joshua Wade of Housing Security reportedly saw Tynan walk into the lobby and tried to stop her, but she stumbled and refused to acknowl-edge him.

After Wade finally stopped her and asked for her identification, he noticed an out-of-state driver’s license. When the officer arrived, Tynan admitted to drinking and pulled out a second driver’s license from her bag. When asked how she obtained the injuries on her knee and feet, “her reply was incoherent and did not make any sense,” according to the report.

A search following her arrest revealed two driver’s licenses, one was a male from Georgia and the sec-ond was a female from Indiana.

Tynan was then transported to Clarke County Jail.

Nude student found sleeping in closetUniversity student Andrew Steed

Walgren, 19, was arrested and charged with underage possession of alcohol on Saturday at 4:26 a.m. in Rutherford Hall after a student com-plained there was someone sleeping in his closet.

When a police officer arrived, he saw Walgren “naked and curled up sleeping in the complainant’s closet,” according to the University Police report. After the officer woke him up, Walgren’s speech was reportedly slow and slurred, and Walgren said he thought he was in his own room.

The officer confirmed Walgren was under 21 and took him to Clarke County Jail.

Student stumbles into jailUniversity student Andrew Wilson

Key, 19, was arrested and charged with underage possession of alcohol on Sunday at 12:47 a.m. after a police

officer saw him almost stumble into the roadway.

The officer asked Key for his ID, but Key reportedly said he did not have it with him. However, he gave his name and date of birth.

According to the report, Key said he hadn’t been drinking, and agreed to take a breathalyzer test. He did not blow hard enough to get a read-ing.

The officer then set the breatha-lyzer to “passive mode” and obtained a reading that showed positive for alcohol. A valid Georgia driver’s license was found in Key’s wallet and verified Key was underage. Key was then handcuffed and transported to Clarke County Jail.

An early 4/20 for somePatrick Woodson Salmon, 18, and

University student Burkley Allen Wombell, 19, were taken to Clarke County Jail on Sunday at 4:09 a.m.

Salmon was arrested and charged with underage possession of alcohol, possession of a fake ID and posses-sion of drug related objects.

Wombell was arrested and charged with underage possession of alcohol.

According to the University Police report, Salmon and Wombell were found sitting in a turned off vehicle in the Legion Pool parking lot. After Salmon opened the door of the SUV, a police officer said he smelled burned marijuana coming from inside of the car.

When interrogated about the con-tents of the vehicle, Salmon and Wombell answered all questions. Salmon reportedly informed the offi-cer there was a glass pipe in the car for smoking marijuana, but that they didn’t have any left. After the officer also found beer in the car, the two admitted to drinking, according to the report. They both tested positive for alcohol, and a fake ID was obtained from Salmon’s wallet.

one year. The times for these classes are the same each semester, though students will be able to choose between morning and afternoon slots.

The courses will be offered Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but on a Tuesday and Thursday 75 minute sched-ule. In addition, a 1.5 credit hour finance and manage-ment course and a leadership course have been added to the curriculum for all majors.

Terry College Dean Robert Sumichrast said the current system makes it hard for pro-fessors to teach certain con-cepts to students who haven’t taken a course that corre-sponds with the subject.

“The faculty teaching those upper division courses couldn’t rely on that knowl-edge. I think you’ll see some changes in the actual sylla-bus for a course here or there to take advantage of the additional knowledge that the students bring into the course,” he said.

Sumichrast said he sees many benefits to the new sys-tem, including a more thor-ough curriculum.

“The way the cohort is set up, students who are in the same major will take their core business classes togeth-er. That means they really have two years with some of the same people in virtually all their classes,” he said. “They’re more likely to build strong friendships with those people. They’re more likely to rely on those contacts when they get out in their careers.”

Nicole Lackey, a senior from Gainesville who has served as the president of the Real Estate Society, said implementing a networking system is a step in the right direction.

“I think students in col-lege don’t realize the impor-tance of networking while they’re in college and how much it will affect their career in a business community,” she said.

Though Sumichrast said the students he has spoken with overwhelmingly support the Foundations First pro-gram, Terry College’s new pol-icy is not immune to criticism.

“It’s an unnecessary bur-den on the student body,” said freshman Matthew Cordle from Richmond Hill. “I feel like you can accom-plish the same goals without this program — and it has been accomplished.”

Cordle doesn’t like that the Tuesday/Thursday sched-ule is applied to the other days of the week, saying it restricts double and triple majors.

Sumichrast acknowledged the new system allows less flexibility for students want-ing to pursue dual degrees, but he said he asked the fac-ulty to create flowcharts to ensure all business majors can be completed in four years.

With the two additional courses, students will be forced to spend more time in Terry classes instead of addi-tional electives.

Sophomore accounting major Clay Rushing from Thomasville is only taking 13 hours, but he’s juggling six classes, a problem that costs time and book money. Some courses, such as the leader-ship classes, are split up into two semesters.

“Once you take the first leadership class, you’ll under-stand the second business leadership class. It would be simpler if they made it one class, but I guess they have their reasons,” he said.

To relieve stress, the com-

mittee devised a schedule that would allow students to take 50-minute courses outside Terry College on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Students must take their required Terry College classes concurrently so as to have either the morning or after-noon free for other academics.

“We try to minimize the impact that we’re going to have on students who want to have more than one major or need to be somewhere else on campus,” Munneke said.

Though additional courses will require a more rigorous schedule, Munneke asks stu-dents to look at the bigger picture.

“The goal was to have a class so that everybody in the Terry College of Business would be exposed to leader-ship skills, career skills and being able to have a common speaker come through,” he said.

Research into the Foundations First Approach has been a swift and straight-forward process, said Munneke, who looked to uni-versities in Indiana and Minnesota for inspiration. Terry College, however, had no official discussion with administrators of the Grady College of Journalism, which also offers a similar, though not identical, cohort system.

Sumichrast is notifying students of the policy before it goes into effect next fall. After holding a media brief-ing, he e-mailed all pre-Terry and Terry College students and made all necessary infor-mation available on the Terry College and University Web sites.

“We wanted to give stu-dents plenty of time to be prepared for it,” he said. “I think the vast majority of students are going to find it to be an advantage.”

NEWS The Red & Black | Tuesday, April 20, 2010 | 3

By JULIA CARPENTER THE RED & BLACK

Tate Theater was divid-ed into two camps last night: one side sported dreadlocks and surf shirts — the other favored side-parted hair and madras shorts. Both were there to watch the real-life drama of Heads vs. Feds unfold.

As part of the University Union event, Bob Stutman, a former Drug Enforcement Agency agent, and Steve Hager, editor in chief of High Times magazine, debated the controversial issue of marijuana legaliza-tion before a University audience.

“I am for the Heads,” said Lorianne Steele, a sophomore finance major from Warm Springs. “I kind of support NORML [National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws] and all it does, and I just think some of those laws being passed in California should make

their way here.”Despite college towns’

national reputations as more liberal arenas, Stutman had some stal-wart support in the audi-ence.

“I hope the Feds win,” said Andrew Smith, a senior education major from Lawrenceville. “The Heads’ll probably win, but I just saw it in the paper and thought it’d be cool.”

Stutman said in an ear-lier interview with The Red & Black he was prepared to tackle a hot-button pro-legalization topic students always raise at these debates: the issue of medi-cal marijuana use.

“To be honest about it, there are two chemicals in the cannabis plant that I think could be very good medicine. If we extract those and use them in a non-smoking manner, the pure two chemicals, then I think they will prove to be great medicine,” Stutman said.

Stutman objects to the use of cannabis in medical treatments for more spe-cific reasons.

“What I’m against is when someone says, ‘Let’s take in the 433 extraneous chemicals and the two good ones, and by the way, I think you should smoke it. And by the way, we don’t know the dose.’”

In the debate, Hager supported the use of medi-cal marijuana, citing its proven effects on reducing patient pain and the hypoc-risy inherent in today’s overly medicated popula-tion.

“They hand out pills like M&Ms. None of these pills even existed when I was in school,” he said. “Could they be against it because when I hand you a canna-bis flower I am handing you free medicine for the rest of your lives?”

Hager structured his points largely around his mistrust of the U.S. govern-ment.

“Telling us [marijuana] has no medical use what-soever is equivalent to standing in a raging hurri-cane and the U.S. govern-ment telling you the wind ain’t blowing,” he said.

Stutman remained largely on the defensive throughout the evening, rebutting Hager’s argu-ments for legalization.

At the start of the debate, Stutman asked that students keep an open mind.

“Remember how impor-tant it is to disagree with each other,” he said. “Steve and I are great personal friends. I have never had more fun in my life than when I am on the road with this guy.”

As the room erupted in laughter, Stutman has-tened to dispel the men-tal image of himself shar-ing a roach with Hager in the back of a psychadelic bus.

“No, no, not that much fun,” he said.

night available for the team to work with the Special Olympics athletes, but Weldon said everything for the event came together.

Sixty-seven athletes, ranging from kindergarten to high school seniors, signed up for the game.

The Special Olympics athletes were split into two teams, and University base-ball players acted as coach-es. The Westside Gladiators had red jerseys made for the event, and the Eastside Jaguars sported blue uni-forms.

Megan Eggleston works in publicity for the Special Olympics group, and said she enjoyed the event.

“Our Special Olympics athletes are just pumped to play the game,” Eggleston said. “And they get to meet all the athletes and see the support they could get from the community.”

All of the ticket proceeds went toward raising money for the Special Olympics of Athens-Clarke County.

However, the event was more than a fundraiser.

“It encourages people regardless of their disabili-ty, anything they’re limited by, to have fun and come out and play sports, just be treated normal for a couple of hours a week or every day,” she said.

Senior Alex Mcree is a University baseball player, and he was the head coach for the Eastside Jaguars.

“I don’t know if you can really prepare for a game like this, because you don’t know what’s going to hap-pen,” Mcree said. “I’ve real-ly enjoyed being involved. Our fans give a lot to us, and this is our turn to give back to them.”

After starting a few min-utes past 6 p.m., the game ended at 7:30 p.m. with the score tied at 15.

OLYMPICS: More than a game for some

LILY PRICE | The Red & Black

University students pack the Tate Theater to witness Bob Stutman, a former Drug Enforcement Agency agent, and Steve Hager, of High Times magazine, duke it out over marijuana legalization.

In the Monday, April 19 article, “As money runs out, status uncertain,” “Up in the air” your headline blared; WNEG is not a big deal for most on this cam-pus. It is a big deal to me though.

I live in Franklin County, Ga. and have lim-ited access to local news. You see, I live in an area where my local news chan-nels are South Carolina channels. Not exactly the best way to catch up on the news or weather.

It’s more than that though. I enjoy watching Ray, Cody, Eric, Amelia and Laura Ashley every day at 6:00 p.m.

I really hope the sta-tion can be saved so that communities like mine will have a news station that continues to serve the areas around it as well as reports the news.

Besides not fixing the primary motivation of binge drinking (the “for-bidden fruit” concept, with access to something prohibited leading to over-indulgence), it would also turn alcohol access into a class issue.

Mr. Jones writes in his

column published April 16, “Change drinking age to increase graduation,” that this law “will allow the more dependable citizens the right to drink.”

So all who are unable to graduate will never have access to alcohol? Will they have to wait to age 21?

There’s a definite impli-cation that those who do not graduate are always more irresponsible and less worthy than those who do.

Mr. Jones seems to for-get that lack of responsi-bility is not the sole reason for not graduating high school (family problems, health issues, etc.). This will unfairly penalize the lower class, and most like-ly focus even more crime in on low-income areas.

His other reasons are also unsatisfactory. Having millions simultaneously be able to purchase and con-sume alcohol will hardly lessen binge drinking. It will just focus the celebra-tions in the months of May and June. Also, the economic implications of this are quite interesting to ponder.

Finally, the parent’s watchful eye will be there for only two months before many of these graduates leave for college. That hardly brings much time for education in modera-tion.

Mr. Jones’ plan not only fails to solve the problems with the existing law — it creates even more.

Every time I tweak my résumé, which has been quite fre-quently lately, I get a strange

sinking feeling.It’s the kind of empty feeling you

get when you leave on a road trip, certain that you forgot to bring something important, but unable to put your finger on exactly what you might have left behind.

Is there something I’ve accom-plished in the last four years that I forgot to mention? Not the strong GPA I spent far too many late nights at the MLC trying to main-tain. Or is my résumé simply miss-ing something? It turns out, in the eyes of many employers, there prob-ably is: I haven’t had an internship.

Besides an undergraduate degree, internships have become the most important element on any college grad’s résumé, the prover-bial “golden ticket” in today’s less than friendly post-graduation job market.

It was found that 50 percent of graduating students had done internships, a steep increase from the 17 percent mark reported in 1992, according to a 2008 National Association of Colleges and Employers study.

A recent New York Times article estimated that of these hundreds of thousands of internships, one-fourth to one-half are unpaid.

It’s easy to see why internships have become so sought after by college students — experience in a real-world work environment makes a recent college grad very attractive to potential employers, and right-fully so.

But is our society’s recent obses-sion with résumé-boosting intern-ships, particularly the free labor offered by the increasingly-popular unpaid variety, actually detrimental to the job market and putting less affluent students at a competitive disadvantage?

The truth is, not all students enjoy the financial stability to be able to work an entire summer without pay. Strapped with the responsibility to pay for their col-lege tuition or other living expenses, the option of using an unpaid sum-mer internship as a springboard to a paying job post-graduation doesn’t exist for many college stu-dents.

As companies and corporations try to cut costs in this harsh eco-nomic climate, many have turned to enlisting unpaid interns to do entry-level work, eliminating what would otherwise be paid positions available to college grads.

Employers must satisfy a list of six federal legal criteria to be eli-

gible to enlist unpaid interns; the regulations stipulate, among other things, that the internship must be similar to the training a student would receive at a vocational school or similar institution, that the intern does not displace paid work-ers and that the employer doesn’t enjoy any immediate advantage as a result of the intern’s work.

Though these criteria are in place, enforcement is largely depen-dent on interns to report violations on their own.

The solution: increased efforts on behalf of the University System of Georgia to inform students about the law regarding unpaid intern-ships.

Educating students about the legality — or in some cases, the ille-gality — of unpaid internships will, for one, reduce the unfair exploita-tion of college students who hold some of these unpaid positions and, two, help replenish the job mar-ket’s supply of entry-level positions that would have previously gone to unpaid interns.

Make no mistake about it: the internship craze is here to stay.

However, equipping students with knowledge about the law sur-rounding unpaid internships will allow prospective interns to lever-age themselves into paid positions and increase the chances that non-interns will have of squeezing their foot in the door somewhere in the “real world”.

OpinionsYou may have heard

of a little film called Avatar. It didn’t

win Best Picture or Best Director (take that James Cameron!), but it did take the title of highest gross-ing movie of all time — just as long as we don’t adjust Gone With the Wind sales for inflation.

Though Avatar’s story was basically FernGully meets Dances with Wolves, the film was a visual stun-ner.

And the $1 billion-plus it brought to the box office means audiences agree.

Of course, Avatar had help. Between 65 and 80 percent of Avatar’s box office blow-up came from 3D ticket sales, which can cost up to $18 a pop, according to Hollywood Reporter.

On the other hand, Alice in Wonderland — also recently released in 3D and drawing good box office returns — under-whelmed. How I regret pulling the few extra crum-pled bills from my wal-let for a pair of smudged glasses that left a dent in the bridge of my nose.

Compared to the visual feast that was Avatar, the few pianos and smoke rings Alice hurled my way seemed like stale bread and weak soup.

3D movies, for better or worse, are Hollywood’s latest dead horse to kick. The wild success of Avatar proved that audiences are interested in 3D. And when Hollywood finds something that works, it never knows when to quit.

Spiderman 3, anyone?

The 3D experience can be enchanting — as long as it is done right. But I feel cheated if a studio hurriedly re-processes to 3D format a film meant to be released in 2D. Clash of the Titans, I’m talking to you. 3D, like grandma’s wedding china and high heels, should be saved for special occasions. I think How to Train Your Dragon hardly qualifies.

But with this influx of 3D films, movie the-aters are facing problems. Many do not have enough screens to show all of the films slated for 3D release in the coming months.

Products are being churned out to cash in on the trend with 3D becom-ing so popular. Panasonic’s 3D TVs are on back order, and Apple is developing 3D glasses for the iPod.

It will be a cold day in hell when I watch Avatar — a film made to be seen on a larger-than-life screen — on a teensy video screen with monstrous plastic goggles mounted on my head.

I can only hope that this 3D craze burns out before greedy James Cameron gets the bright idea to re-release Titanic in 3D. Oh wait ...

I know I’ll find dumb lyrics and not captivating narratives in mainstream pop music.

Friends have explained to me that most listeners tolerate vapid lyrics in exchange for danceable beats. But why can’t more popular artists have both skill sets? Why aren’t there more wordsmith beat-makers?

After all, M.I.A., the female rap-per from London by way of Sri Lanka, adds striking political and social lyrics to her infectious dance beats. She focused on language as well as rhythms, and her song “Paper Planes” was hoppin’ enough to reach No. 4 on Billboard’s Hot 100.

However, it seems the singers dominating airwaves are mocking the very suggestion of word crafts-manship. Lyrics are no longer just dumb — they have been reduced to baby banter. The choruses of today’s popular songs consist of sounds rather than words.

Case in point: new pop star Kesha’s “Blah Blah Blah.”

In that inane, obnoxious tune, Kesha orders men to cut to the chase. Skip the words for the hori-zontal hustle, Kesha whines. She slurs her words as if she is drunk on the alcohol so frequently mentioned in her raps.

“Coming out your mouth with your blah blah blah / Zip your lips like a padlock / And meet me in the back with the jack and the jukebox / I don’t really care where you live at / Just turn around boy and let me hit

that,” she raps. There is a time and place for

getting-to-know-you conversation. It is definitely before taking home a stranger you meet at a club, and I would argue it is appropriate in a pop song too. Fine, Kesha doesn’t want to write introspective poetry, but she should communicate some-thing more than “communication is nonessential.” If that’s her message, then why write lyrics at all?

Being a journalism major, I revere anyone who can communi-cate effectively and beautifully — especially when I have to work hard to shape my messages. I equally resent a woman who fancies her-self a composer and literally writes “blah blah blah” and “nah nah nah” in her chorus.

Nonsensical noises have their place in songs as well as poetry, yet the composer must be deliberate,

not lazy, when using onomatopoeia. Lady Gaga, another female pop

favorite, treads the line of pur-poseful noise-making and using Kesha’s “insert lyrics here” song-writing method in her single “Bad Romance”.

Lady Gaga leans on the former side — judging by the glee with which her fans belt out “Rah-rah-rah-ah-ah / Roma-roma-maa! / Ga-ga-ooh-la-la! Want your bad romance.” The dark incantations of the chorus are purposeful. They accent the sinister tone of the vers-es and release the lustful energy in Lady Gaga’s lyrics. The difference is subtle, so Kesha no doubt didn’t pick up on it when she tried to copy Lady Gaga’s operatic success.

Lyrical form communicates just as much as content. The sounds of words should be just as instrumen-tal in a piece as the actual words. A good rapper, which Kesha is not, has good flow — what they say is just as important as how they say it.

Kesha’s cheap rhymes literally crow at the listener “cah, cah, cah.” She raps and sings about nothing-ness and manages to make those nonsensical noises painful.

It might be cute when babies babble, but Kesha sounds like a drunk fool. I suggest she take her own advice and shut up, so she doesn’t make mainstream radio any worse than it already is.

Many times we hear a story about a successful career which began with that highly-desired piece of paper — a degree. But Kip Pierson’s journey proves to be one of the many exceptions to that story.

Pierson, a former master’s student in the Theatre and Film Studies program from Sterling Heights, Mich. came to the University in the fall of 1999 to pur-sue a Master of Fine Arts degree through the three-year master’s pro-gram.

“I was given a full ride and a stipend,” Pierson said.

However, Pierson only stayed for one year.

“I thought it was too based in aca-demia and not based enough in real world applications,” Pierson said.

Pierson did not give up on pursuing a career in performing arts, however.

“I wanted to go into the real world and act, and I did so,” Pierson said. “After leaving UGA my immediate job was with the Orlando Shakespeare Festival and after that I kept getting work, which was pretty neat.”

His time in the program did have a positive influence on him, just not in the way that he was expecting.

“The way it influenced me the most was that it taught me how to use Ramsey,” Pierson said.

Pierson had one course that was

taught Monday through Friday, and it was mandatory that the students worked out on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

He had a bad shoulder and was apprehensive about putting any pres-sure on it while working out. But his hard work in the gym paid off because he now competes in the Ironman Triathlon.

Pierson later went back to school and earned his MFA in Classical Acting at the Academy for Classical Acting, which is part of the Shakespeare Theatre Company and George Washington University in Washington, D.C.

“The program was fantastic,” Pierson said.

He is now on a three month national tour of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts’ production of “Nobody’s Perfect,” a musical based on the children’s book by Academy Award winner and deaf actress, Marlee Matlin.

“Nobody’s Perfect” is presented in both American Sign Language and English.

“Deaf audiences particularly don’t have many opportunities to see a live show, but this production definitely allows them to,” Pierson said.

Pierson has a word of advice for any-one who may be pursuing a career in performing arts.

“You have to work,” Pierson said. “By that I mean search for the opportunities that are out there, because there are always opportunities; school is not the end-all, be-all.”

Sinatra just got a lot more dank. After all, it is 4/20.

Tonight, Athens upstart band Dank Sinatra will perform at Tasty World, appearing with fellow locals Papa’s Bag and Crookie Monster.

It’s a show that promis-es to be what bassist Clint Meadows describes as “a celebration of good music and our earth.”

The band’s diverse sound defies a genre-defi-nition, and that is arguably what defines this band from so many others.

“We want Dank Sinatra’s sound to be an inviting blend of all sorts of genres,” Meadows said. “From everything like rock and jam to electronic and funk, or even jazz and soul, we want to make a sound that is unique and unmatched by other

bands.”This blending of genres

is no doubt due to the var-ied musical backgrounds of its members. Drummer Sam Satterfield and gui-tarist/vocalist Joe Gaines are both Athens natives who have played together from a young age. They say their exposure to the ever-morphing Athens music scene has brought a level insight into what it takes to make it in this musically saturated town.

Guitarist Pearson Beasley and percussionist John Conners are also old friends and bandmates from Savannah, while key-boardist Matt Henderson hails from Greenville, S.C. and Meadows is a trans-plant from the Dalton-Chattanooga area.

The fusion of these six musicians into a cohesive unit is attributed to mutu-al friends at the University.

“I could tell from the very first time we played

together that the chemis-try, the friendship and the talent were already there,” Meadows said. “The chal-lenge was to channel all of these good traits into a band that people would love and enjoy listening to, whether live or at home, and I feel like we have done that in our recent shows.”

Even though Dank Sinatra has only been a proper group for three months, they have made great strides in attracting the attention of the Greek community at Georgia.

“Our first show was for Kappa Alpha’s Cowboy Ball party this spring, sharing the stage with

Cosmic Charlie and Zoogma,” Meadows said.

The musical grab-bag that is Dank Sinatra was also overheard in down-town Athens when they performed at Sigma Alpha Epsilon’s spring party.

But fraternity parties aren’t the only things on the roster for Dank Sinatra. When they played Rye Bar earlier this month,

over 150 people showed up, even though the club claims to have a maximum capacity of 50 people.

Last Thursday, the band travelled to Clemson, S.C. to play their first out-of-town show at a popular Tiger hang-out called Flip Flops. Meadows is sure this “road trip” was just the first of many.

“I know the future of

this band is bright and we only have good things to come,” Meadows said. “We’re not going to worry about where this band will be in two-three years. We’re thinking about where this band is right now and what things we can do to improve and master the sound of Dank Sinatra for our fans and ourselves alike.”

The Federal Commun-ications Commission must keep its hands off the Internet, according to a recent court ruling.

On April 6, a federal appeals court overturned a lower court’s decision that had allowed the FCC to regulate what Internet Service Providers could do with their services.

In the new ruling, the court decided the FCC’s assumption of power through so-called “net neu-trality” is not authorized. Net neutrality requires ISPs to give equal treat-ment to all Web traffic. If the FCC wishes to keep this regulatory power, the only option it may have is convincing Congress to specifically legislate more authority to the FCC.

Such legislation would be welcomed by some com-puter science professors at the University.

“I am very disappointed at the recent court ruling that the FCC has no authority over net neutral-ity,” said Daniel Everett, an assistant professor of com-puter science. “I think that we will soon see Federal legislation introduced in an attempt to overturn this ruling.”

Everett pointed to the concern that without net neutrality, ISPs may differ-entiate services, such that not all subscribers would

have the same access to all areas of the Internet. He also said the Internet serves an integral role in promoting government ide-ology to the public.

“The net is an essential part of the ‘public square’ in which democratic dis-cussions take place, and it is crucial that the govern-ment has authority to pre-serve access by all inter-ested parties,” he said.

Michael Covington, senior research scientist at the Artificial Intelligence Center and adjunct profes-sor of computer science, is in favor of the FCC regulat-ing the Internet as well.

Covington pointed to the problem of monopolies in ISPs as the justification for the FCC regulation.

He also indicated con-cern that ISPs would cater to a variety of different cus-tomer demands if allowed to do so.

“It is analogous to the old FCC rule that TV sets sold in the U.S. had to get all the broadcast chan-nels,” he said. “Otherwise it would have been cheaper to make TVs that only get the low band, because if you only wanted channels two to six you could use a simpler tuner circuit, and stations that were assigned higher channel numbers would have been at a dis-advantage.”

Of the 25 technology -related faculty and staff contacted for comment on this story, none expressed

hesitations or negative attitudes toward FCC reg-ulation.

However, this consensus is not shared by all mem-bers of the public.

Amongst those who dis-agree with the FCC’s posi-tion is Stefan Molyneux, a former technology execu-tive who now hosts Freedomain Radio, a popu-lar Internet radio and pod-cast Web site. Molyneux said support for the FCC’s solution is the result of a common fear.

“Everywhere on the net neutrality stuff, there’s this fear of monopoly. It’s so bizarre that people would fear monopoly so much, and then, to save them from [private] monopolies, they turn to the biggest, meanest, most violent monopoly of them all,” Molyneux said.

He also said eliminating net neutrality would cut Internet access fees by allowing for exclusive usage

“All it is doing is making sure that some people, who wouldn’t notice the differ-ence or even care about the difference, won’t get access to the Internet because it will drive the price up,” he said.

what we do.”Some arrests, Williamson

said, are due to blatant dis-regard, or merely people forgetting where they laid their baggie.

“There have been people that pull up to safety road checks and have marijuana sitting right there between

the two seats in the con-sole,” he said. “It’s obvious they have already smoked.”

Since there is no breath-alyzer or means of testing to tell if a driver is under the influence of marijuana, police must request a blood test or rely on observa-tions.

“If someone is impaired

and the officer sees all these signs of impairments, but smells no alcohol, the officer is going to request blood,” Williamson said. “The driver can refuse but that doesn’t stop them from being charged, and observations will be used in court.”

Police can use observa-tions as probable cause for

a search. Officers are exposed to the scent of marijuana and trained to recognize it both in its dried state and after it has been burned.

However, Williamson explained that a marijuana arrest of someone who is just a user is more of a reactionary response.

“The real proactive stances in law enforcement are when we are going after the individuals that are dealing,” he said. “We are using very creative means to find them.”’

Lt. Mike Hunsinger, commander of the North East Georgia Regional Drug Task Force, has a similar order of priorities for his team of investiga-tors.

Although the task force is designed to reduce both the use and distribution of illegal drugs, Hunsinger said they focus on the lat-ter.

“We don’t spend a lot of time and effort in looking for marijuana users,” Hunsinger said. “We go after those who are selling it.”

Dellinger said only two individuals were arrested by University police on charges of possession with intent to distribute mari-juana in 2009.

However, marijuana is still the most prevalent drug on campus.

“In the Athens-Clarke County metropolitan area, specifically, marijuana is the most prevalent illicit drug,” Hunsinger said.

Despite today’s special occasion, University police said they will not be put-ting forth extra effort to fight marijuana-use.

“It’s just the same as any other day,” Williamson said. “People usually come with signs and protest, but there is nothing to really build up for.”

Consuming may be a treat for us, but it could be a trick for the environment.

The Students for Environmental Action plan to provide alternative ways to consume, but in a man-ner that is eco-friendly, today as part of Food, Waste and Consumption Day.

“It’s a day of events that will raise awareness about purchasing things that are more environmentally sus-tainable,” said Sheena Zhang, the president of SEA.

The first event will be a No Waste Dinner, featuring local and organic foods.

“We’re not giving the par-ticipants any disposable items like plates and cups,” said Lauren Mullenbach, a second-year psychology major, member of SEA and RHA Representative for Reed Hall Council. “The idea is to cut down on

waste.”After the dinner, rather

than disposing of the food scraps, they will be collect-ed.

“Any food that’s left over will be put in compost, which can then be used as fertilizer,” Zhang said.

SEA will also hold a waste audit of the Reed Community. The University

Physical Plant will gather a few days’ worth of trash and put it on Reed Quad.

They will provide stu-dents with hazmat suits to prevent exposure to hazard-ous waste and the students will separate the recyclables from the non-recyclables to determine the percentage that could have been recy-cled will be determined.

To end the night’s festivi-ties, there will be a free con-cert featuring the Ecotones, an environmentally-friendly group of a cappella singers.

Zhang said SEA wants to make a statement about how people can make indi-vidual changes to their con-sumption habits.

“I think a lot of people are unaware about food consumption and its impact,” said Abby Moore, treasurer for Students for Environmental Action. “I think this day is a great way to spread the word about how small actions can make big differences.”

Consumption Day offers free dinner, minus plate By ANNE CONNAUGHTON

Cape Town is coming to Ciné tonight — or at least its alcohol is.

Inspired by creative consultant Carly Nash’s love of South Africa, Ciné will host a South African wine tasting tonight.

Nash, a University student, has vis-ited South Africa three times and got to experience this up-and-coming wine country firsthand.

“South Africa actually has some interesting wine history,” she said. “The first Pinotage grapes came from South Africa.”

Based on the popularity of Ciné’s wine tasting in the past, this event is meant to kick off a whole Passport Wine Tasting series.

“It’s fun to step outside the box,” Nash said. “To show that Ciné is not just about the films. We’re hoping if it goes well, we’ll continue with coun-try’s like Argentina and Italy.”

Five types of wine, selected through Ciné’s wine vendor’s selection, will be offered at the tasting and, if tasters try a new favorite, it’s possible to find all selected labels in liquor stores around Athens.

Because Nash plans on making it a whole cultural experience, there will be information available on the wines and vineyards selected, and a slide-show of pictures taken by Nash.

Light appetizers to complement the wine will be provided by The National.

The menu was chosen to pair with the flavors of the wine, not because the dishes are native to South Africa, said creative consultant intern Kelsey Banes.

“Peter [a chef at The National] knows so much,” said Banes. “He’s so good with flavors, we sent him a list of wines — he sent us a short list back, and we had our menu.”

Marinated fresh goat cheese, hum-mus with sumac and crisp flatbread, and stuffed dates with manchego cheese and celery will all be served. She said these dishes are typical of what can be found on The National’s menu.

Previous wine tastings have sold out, so Nash cautions to get tickets early if you’re interested in drinking and learning about other cultures.

“A wide range of people attend our wine tastings,” Nash said. “But we’d like to increase interest, trying some-thing new to get people interested.”

and at the same time, makes fun of you enough so you don’t get too cocky.”

The band also worked with Hoppus for their second studio album, “Commit This to Memory.” Their first single, “Everything is Alright,” featured both Hoppus and Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy and was used in the trailer for the film “Accepted.”

With touring, the whole experi-ence can blend into a blur of cities and exciting moments.

Traveling the globe can yield many lifelong memories. For Taylor, nothing tops their 2005 Warped Tour performance in Chicago.

“We were the last band to play on the entire tour that day, so it was like pushing 10 p.m.,” Taylor said. “We’re playing this giant amphithe-ater were they put two stages on the one stage, and we’re like ‘aw man, the cards are stacked against us, nobody is going to come.’”

They couldn’t have been more wrong.

“We go up to the stage and the place is just packed, thousands upon thousands of people,” Taylor said. “That still to this day might be the most people singing along to any of our live shows, ever.”

When Taylor and the rest of MCS have a day off, he can be found hit-ting up a local coffee shop or even stopping by Chipotle for a massive burrito. However, there’s no guaran-tee he’ll actually get to eat.

“I had a kid in Chipotle today

stop me in line while I was trying to order my burrito and ask for a photo,” Taylor said. “And the funny this is, there were literally seven Chipotle workers in an assembly line making this huge order and he stops one of them and hands her the cam-era. He made the whole assembly line stop and take a photo. I thought it was really funny.”

What will be the first thing Taylor does in Athens?

“I’m really excited to get there and shop for some records!” Taylor said. “I will make time in Athens, for sure. I love Athens.”

As far as advice for local bands

still trying to make it onto the scene in a completely online world of music, Taylor has some advice that will hopefully lift some spirits.

“The game has changed so much for music, with every single band having a Myspace, Facebook or Purevolume page — there’s a lot of competition,” Taylor said. “Get your songs into the hands of anyone who will listen. Go to shows and hand them out. We have a lot of people hand us demos. Sometimes you’ve got to go into a little bit of debt. That was key for us — we were all just willing to put everything else on hold and try the music thing.”

Fans of Bulldog soccer can breathe easy: the Georgia women’s program is in good hands.

Sixteen-year veteran head coach Steve Holeman was named Georgia’s next women’s soccer head coach Friday by Athletic Director Damon Evans.

Holeman becomes just the fourth head coach in the fifteen-year history of Georgia women’s soccer, replacing former head coach Patrick Baker, who resigned earlier this month after five successful sea-sons at the helm.

“The commitment from the University is first class, and [Georgia] is a top-notch Division 1 program,”

Holeman said. “They’re committed to excellence — they want to win champi-onships. The University of Georgia is one of the premier universities in the entire country both academically and athletically, and Athens is a great town, and it has everything you could want as a coach.”

In his previous 15 years in Oxford, Miss., Holeman compiled a record of 165-124-31, leading the Rebels along the way to three SEC Western Division titles, including a trip to the SEC Tournament Finals in 1999.

Holeman inherits a Georgia program that has also had its fair share of

success of late with three-consecutive NCAA Tournament berths, includ-ing a trip to the second

round of tourna-ment play in 2007 and 2009.

The players were introduced to their new head coach Monday morning at a team meeting. According to senior Kelli Corless, who was previously coached by Holeman at an Olympic

Development Program while in high school, the team is confident about the direction it will be heading under their new head coach.

“You could just tell his overall excitement about where he wants to take this

program,” Corless said. “It was awesome. I don’t think the meeting could have gone any better. Now I don’t think we can all believe that we have to wait until fall before we get a chance to actually train and work with him.”

Robin Confer, who has served an assistant coach for five seasons and who took over as the team’s interim head coach in the wake of Baker’s April departure, will remain on the Georgia coaching staff as an assistant coach.

“For him to keep Robin Confer as an assistant coach, that is extremely exciting for us because we love her to death and she’s invested a lot in the pro-gram, and so to have her stay with us is awesome.”

Corless said.

Vance Cuff is fast. The cornerback was fast com-

ing out of high school, possessing 4.35-second 40-yard dash speed.

But the 5-foot-11 senior ran into wide receivers who towered over him, such as his 6-foot-4 teammate A.J. Green, once he reached the big stage of college football.

He couldn’t just blow past receivers off the line of scrimmage anymore.

Cuff had to learn technique. And former defensive coordinator Willie Martinez began the mold-ing process.

“When you get here, every-thing’s more about technique,” Cuff said. “Coach Martinez came in, and that’s the first coach I had since I came [to Georgia]. He helped me with my technique a whole lot.”

But the first coach Cuff had who began refining and shaping his technique was fired in November, just months before Cuff began his last spring practice as a Bulldog.

Enter new secondary coach Scott Lakatos. The former sec-ondary coach for the University of Connecticut brought 12 years of defensive coaching experience with him to Georgia. And Cuff took to his coaching style.

“Coach [Todd] Grantham brought Coach Lakatos in, and that really helped me out,” Cuff said. “I felt like his techniques and the way he’s teaching is more like the style of cornerback I am. More aggressive with the ball, stuff like that.”

Polishing his game further and sharpening his technique led to Cuff being what head coach Mark Richt called “the best of the cor-ners in the spring.”

“He’s playing with the most confidence by far since he’s been

at Georgia,” Richt said. “He has the athletic ability, he always has ... But when you look at him as a true freshman and you see his raw ability, you say, ‘This guy could be a very good corner and a very good man-to-man cover guy.’ He’s really taken well to Coach Lakatos’ style.”

Cuff’s efforts in spring practice to elevate his level of play and become a distinguished piece to the puzzle that is Georgia’s sec-ondary unit was capped off by a

one-handed leaping interception in the Bulldogs’ last scrimmage before the G-Day game.

Fellow cornerback Brandon Boykin has seen what he calls “night and day” in Cuff’s perfor-mance on the football field, noting this fall will be Cuff’s last season suiting up in the silver britches and red hats for the Bulldogs.

“He knows it’s his last shot — it’s his senior year and he has a lot to prove,” Boykin said. “I can’t wait to see what he’s gonna do

this fall. He’s been making more plays, covering people like white on rice. He’s contagious on the secondary. When he starts making plays, we all do.”

The senior’s “contagious” play and motivation to prove himself worthy of a starting slot pushes him to try to play mistake-free football.

“You just gotta have everything right,” Cuff said. “You gotta do everything right because one mis-take is six points.”

Senior cornerback ‘best’ in spring practice

It’s hard to call it a “sur-prise” when the Georgia men’s golf team, one of the nation’s most storied pro-grams, takes home the Southeastern Conference Championship.

After all, it’s just another victory added to a trophy case stocked with evidence of previous SEC triumphs.

But even star junior Russell Henley was unable to provide any other word for Georgia’s stunning five-shot victory Sunday at the SEC Championships at Sea Island’s Seaside Course.

The victory is the second consecutive SEC Championship win for head coach Chris Haack and is the program’s 28th SEC title.

“It never gets old. I love it,” Haack said.

This wasn’t supposed to be Haack’s year to hoist the title, though. Not after his Georgia squad strug-gled mightily throughout their fall campaign, falling out of the top-25 and look-ing like a far cry from the team that had been bestowed with the nation’s No. 1 ranking for the major-ity of the p r e v i o u s season.

“We just started out so bad and to win, it is a surprise, but I never t h o u g h t that we w e r e n ’ t capable of winning it,” Henley said. “It’s just kind of weird how u p - a n d -down the season has been.”

And as Henley, the nation’s No. 1 player by GolfWeek, strode up the 18th fairway in the final round with Georgia all but assured a victory, he remained clue-less of the fact that his team held a five-shot lead.

After making par on the final hole, Henley was met by Haack, who told him his team persevered to get the win and that Henley had earned his way into a play-off for individual medalist honors with South Carolina’s George Bryan IV, who were both tied at 6-un-der-par 204.

Both Henley and Bryan parred the opening hole, but on the second playoff hole, Henley stuck his 130-yard approach 10 feet right of the pin and sunk the putt to complete the sweep for Georgia, giving Henley “an indescribable feeling.”

“Honestly, I didn’t even know how I was. I didn’t know how the team was,” Henley said. “I just went out there and played.”

The team victory was Georgia’s second consecu-tive of the spring, and once again, though, Haack seems to have found a way to put his team solidly in the hunt for a national champion-ship, despite the early sea-son struggles. Even if it meant visiting unchartered territories to do it by recruiting his first foreign player in the program’s his-tory and having him enroll in the middle of the season as Haack did with the January addition of fresh-man sensation Bryden Macpherson of Melbourne, Australia.

Macpherson has proven the pivotal third scorer Georgia needed, posting his second top-10 finish of the spring in 8th at 1-un-der-par 209.

Harris English, ranked No. 6 in the country, was solid as usual, posting a tenth-place finish at even-par 210.

Georgia will now turn their focus to NCAA Regionals May 20-22, a long wait for a team playing its best golf of the season.

“I kind of wish we were playing next week with the way we are playing,” Haack said. “But after winning SECs, we’ll go to Regionals with that under our belt, and at this point, we’ve got nothing to lose, we’re just going to go have some fun.”
