Patti Lambert, co-founder of Save Alabama PACT, said this calculation is causing her to lose sleep at night. “This is by far the most unfair thing I’ve ever been associated with in my life,” Lambert said. “If this program collapses, students will no longer be able to afford higher education and will be forced into a work environment where there are no jobs to be had, and major universities are okay with that.” While Alabama legislators in both the state House and Senate have passed bills that would give $236 million to the program to help move it out of debt, a major difference between the two bills means the program faces an uncer- CW | Andrew Hester Members of greeks congregate on the Quad Wednesday to prepare for the 2010 Greek Olympics.

CRIP A authorizes the Department of Justice ("001") to seek equitable relief where prison conditions violate the constitutional ri ghts ofprisoners in state cOlTectional facilities. Consistent witl1 the statutory requirements of CRIPA, we write to infonn you of our findings, the facts SUppoliing tl1em, and the minimum remedial steps necessary to address the identified deficiencies. We conclude that the State of Alabama violates the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution by failing to protect women plisoners at Tutwiler from ham1 due to sexual abuse and harassment from correctional staff. Tutwiler has a history of unabated staff-on-prisoner sexual abuse and harassment. The women at Tutwiler universally fear for their safety. They live in a sexualized envirolunent with repeated and open sexual behavior, including: abusive sexual contact between staff and prisoners; sexualized activity, including a strip show condoned by staff; profane and unprofessional sexualized language and harassment; and deliberate cross-gender viewing of prisoners showering, urinating, and defecating. The inappropriate sexual behavior, including sexual abuse, continues, and is grossly undelTepOlied, due to insufficient staffing and supervision, inadequate policies and procedures, a heightened fear of retaliation, and an inadequate investigative process.
