    GHSA “Items of Interest” November 2010 Don’t Allow Healthy ‘Rivalries’ to Become Problems In recent days, I have seen articles in the media describing high school events as being “healthy rivalries” or “fierce rivalries.” During our discussions about reclassi- fication I have heard administrators talking about the need to have long-term “ri- vals” in the region to enhance gate receipts. And, regrettably, I handle problem issues that arise when people take their rivalries to an extreme. So I understand the value of rivalries when they are handled properly. From the perspective of the GHSA, it is important that rivalries in every sport bring out the best in people and not the worst. Administrators and coaches have very important responsibilities in setting the tone on campus about the need for good sporting behavior at all contests, but especially in contests with rivals. The positive messages from educators will hopefully have a positive effect on the behavior of students – both competitors and spectators. It is also important that these positive messages get presented to Boosters Clubs and to the community. Several recent problems that have come to the GHSA office have their roots among people in the community who want to stir up trouble. Educators may not be able to have direct control over the people in the community, but the positive message needs to be directed toward those people in hopes that some people will understand the role of school-based athletics. Most member schools invest a lot of time and effort into managing the contests as they occur.

    The Fact Book 1993 Cover Lamar Dodd (b. 1909) ON THE CAMPUS, c. 1939 Oil on canvas, 39 1/2 x 30 inches Arranged through the courtesy of the Georgia Museum of Art Collection of C. L. Morehead, Jr. On the Campus not only gives a stunning perspective of the campus but also has great significance to The University of Georgia because of the artist who created it, Professor Emeritus Lamar Dodd. Without a doubt, Professor Dodd has singlehandedly contributed more to the cause of art at this institution and at the Georgia Museum of Art than any other individual. Born in 1909 and reared in LaGrange, Georgia, Professor Dodd joined the faculty of The University of Georgia in 1937 and a year later became head of the Department of Art, a position he held for the next 35 years. He was responsible for great expansion of the department, its facilities, its staff, and its programs, and was an impetus for the founding of the Georgia Museum of Art in 1948. He remains a strong advocate of the arts in the community and continues his support of the Museum through his contributions as well as his participation as a patron. A prolific and widely honored painter, Professor Dodd has had more than one hundred one-man shows, including twenty in New York City. His works have been in major national and regional exhibitions throughout the United States and Europe and are in numerous public collections, including those of the High Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the National Gallery of Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

  • February 2007
    GHSA “Items of Interest” February 2007 Reminders of Changes in the Reclassification Process Incredibly, it is just about time to reclassify member schools for the 2008-2010 cycle. This work will begin in late spring and will be final- ized in January of 2008. The reclassification process has been changed over the past year, so it is important to refresh our collective memories about those changes. In March (2006) and August (2006), constitutional amendments passed two votes of the Executive Committee, and that also changed the procedures in By-Law 4.16. Since the final vote occurred after the printing of the 2006-07 GHSA Constitution and By-laws, this information can only be found in the min- utes of the past two Executive Committee meetings. Reclassification for public schools will be based on an average of the FTE counts provided by the Georgia Department of Education for the spring semester (2007) and the fall semester (2007). This means that the communications to the membership and appeals processes will be compacted into a timeframe beginning in late-October to ending in mid-January. It is believed that this change will provide more accurate information about member schools whose popula- tions are changing so rapidly. Private schools will be reclassified on their actual FTE counts at the beginning of the 2007-08 school year. Shortly after the fall count is released by the Department of Education, the classifications will be estab- lished and sent to schools for review (probably in early November) and schools will have two weeks to file their requests to play at a higher classification.
