Hunt ^^L The oldest continuously published newspaper in Bulloch County Thursday, May 16,1996 News Editor Opinions Our Opinion Alleged theft of Greek funds calls for greater caution The indictment last week of Beverly Williams on charges of stealing money from Greek organizations while working in the student affairs office is the first step toward finding justice in this matter. > From here, the former secretary will file a plea, and will be tried if necessary. If found guilty, Williams will pay whatever price the court deems appropriate. Regardless of the ultimate outcome of the Williams case, however, the burning question remains over whether Greeks at GSU will be compensated for their losses. Our response is that even though fraternities and sororities deserve justice, the Greeks are partly to blame insofar as they allowed a situation to develop in which theft of their money was possible. Greek organizations are considered to be businesses in legal terms. Every business must be responsible for thoroughly supervising its monies, even when they are handed over to an accountant. In the same sense, this case should warn the treasurers of Greek organizations to be more careful about what kind of access people have to their money, even when it involves a university "official." It is not, by any means, the fault of Greeks that Williams allegedly stole this money. However, they should strive for a more professional attitude about supervising O.J. shouldn't be a hero to any Americans their own money.
