Our Opinion *l »

•1 » Alcohol poses a risk to everyone < »»

< • Last Thursday, fraternities and sororities attended a meeting to discuss possible problems with alcohol that may occur within their organizations. Vice President of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management Dr. Linda Bleicken, GSU s Attorney E. Lee Davis, and Interim Dean of Students and Director of the Multicultural Center Georj Lewis, « Director of Judicial Affairs Dr. Ed Bayens, and Director of Greek Life Cara Byford were all in attendance at the Alcohol Risk Man- agement Meeting to address some of the issues with alcohol many S of the students present would be facing. While this event should definitely be considered as supporting a strong and worthwhile ' message, there is still one question it raises. * Why wasn't the entire student body asked to attend? The members of Greek organizations on campus are not the only Georgia Southern students who need to be thoroughly educated on > the dangers and laws surrounding alcohol use. While Greek orga- nizations do have specific policies they need to adhere to regarding alcohol, all GSU students should be held to equal standards when it <> comes to learning about the risks and regulations of the country's most abused drug. While it may seem a bit disturbing that 40 percent of reported alcohol violations in the past two semesters have involved Greeks, what shouldn't be forgotten is that the other 60 percent came from non-Greeks who go to the same institution.

As far as I can tell, Cabin Fever was not meant to be as scary as it was billed to be. This will ultimately be the reason it will not make its way into horror films' elite. The movie has the gore of the "Final Destination" series and the gratuitous violence of "House of a Thousand Corpses." But more im- portant than the violence are Roth's tasteful homages to horror films gone by. While I'm sure I missed as many as I caught, look for tastes of the "Evil Dead" series, "The Shining," and "The Blair Witch Project" Not to mention an utterly out of place reference to "Forrest Gump" Roth's combination of gore, whores, and horror are enough to at- tract most viewers. Oh, and a piece of advice: Don't eat anything you wont mind seeing again, and don't give up on an ending because Roth does get around to one. All in all, I'd say Cabin Fever is worth the seven fifty even if you're not in the mood for pointless Brandon Sparks/STAFF violence because the movie is just The crowd goes wild at Woodin Nikel as Elliot Sloan plays live. inappropriate, dirty fun.
