Our View dui - dumb under investigation

Drunk driving has become a serious issue for Georgia Southern’s students. The Police Beat is filled week after week with several names of individuals who received a DUI. There have also been wrecks caused by students who were too drunk to drive, then totaled their cars after a night of wrong decisions. What needs to be done about it? Stricter rules must be enforced by the University Police, by campus faculty and staff, and even by the Statesboro Police Department. While drinking and partying is a fun part of the social life at Southern, it does not need to include driving and risking the life of other drivers in the process. If students can’t be responsible enough to hand their keys over to a friend who gave up his night to be

With over 55 universities, students had a chance to talk with representatives from reputable institutions. ere were many dif- ferent programs including public health, law, medicine, and psychology. Jadarelle Stanford, Biology Senior, said “I have been looking into jobs, but lately I have been leaning more towards graduate school.” Stanford feels that there are not many jobs out there; therefore graduate school is her major option. While Stanford is considering graduate school, Sandra Hendrix, Political Science/ Pre-Law Junior has made the • nal decision to get her graduate degree. As a junior, she saw the fair in passing and decided that she should go inside because she wanted to get ahead and starting looking at her options. International Studies Senior, Nicholas Lomas, was searching for schools with Pub- lic Policy and/or International Studies pro- grams. He was most attracted to Kennesaw State University. “Kennesaw was nice [and] engaging. ey had lots to say,” said Lomas. Most students are deciding to go to grad- uate school because of the lack of jobs. Yet, many of those students said that they would prefer a job and graduate school was primar- ily a back-up. Lomas and Wilkes, along with other stu- dents, said that the Graduate School Fair was good and they have enjoyed it. “ ere should be more students at this fair. Many students want to go to graduate school,” said Stanford. He knows many stu- dents that are turning to graduate school and believes more of them should attend fairs like this in order to explore their options. Freshmen and sophomores should also at- tend fairs like these. Not only will they begin their search early, but they can • nd out what steps to take to guarantee themselves into graduate school. If you are interested in • nding out more about graduate school and the application process, stop by the O ce of Career Services on the • rst › oor of the Williams Center or visit www.georgiasouthern.edu/career.

Photos by Andrew Partain/STAFF

Philip Clements • Reflector Editor-in-Chief atlanta rapper Ludacris took the stage in front of hundreds of cold fans at J.I. Clements Stadium just after 9 p.m. last Friday night for a concert sponsored by Eagle Entertainment. While the stadium wasn’t packed, you couldn’t tell from the crowd, which was shoulder to shoulder and took up most of the infield. There were also a great number of fans that bypassed paying for a ticket and set up outside the venue in various nooks and crannies on campus, bundled in blankets and enjoying the tunes. During the 15 minutes that press was allowed to stay in (without purchasing a ticket), Ludacris gave us as much as he could. Despite a less-than-packed stadium, Ludacris still brought his A-game and had the crowd chanting his name in no time. sports Editor ExclusivE contEnt on gadaily.com 16 natalie demarko Blogs - thoughts and opinions on sport related news, games and issues (912) gsu-5246 game tracker - see play by play accounts of games via twitter @gsusports Nov. 16, 2010 SPORTS [email protected] game story - Breaking interviews with players and coaches after Quick Hits Eagles defeat Cougars, 91-83 s Men’s basketball traveled to South Derek HARDGE Bend Indiana to take on the Irish staff writer of Notre Dame this past Friday.
