STUDENT GOVERNMENT


Gator ruled by Greeks


Editor's note: This is the first in a four-part
series outlining the issues of the Student
Senate Fall election.
By DAVID COHEN
Alligator Writer
dcohen@alligator.org

They're pretty one-sided.
They make up more than half of the reigning
party's new list of candidates but have one lone
member in the competition's. They're ambi-
tious. They're friends.
They're Greek.

More than half of The Gator Party's Student Senate
candidates are members of Greek chapters, while only
one of the Impact Party's candidates is Greek.

ot h2 percent of the

Jennifer L Brile Alligator Staft


At least 26 out of the 46, about 57 percent, of
The Gator Party's Student Senate candidates for
the Fall election hail from a fraternity or sorority.
Only one out of the Impact Party's 40 slated
candidates is Greek. As of Spring 2005, UF's
Greek community is comprised of 61 chapters
with 4,582 active members, which is less than
10 percent of UF's nearly 49,000-strong student
population. ,-
Some UF students question the degree to
which Student Government parties represent all
pieces of the reptile pie.
But Student Body President Joe Goldberg
said that he doesn't want to talk about it.
"I think the Greek question is irrelevant," he
said. "I don't think it's an issue at all. That gets
blown out of proportion."
Impact spokesman Adam Roberts agreed.
"We didn't even ask that question," he said.
"We weren't even concerned. We cared about
what their ideas were."
However, Roberts said a problem exists.
"The problem is not Greeks themselves. The
problem is the fact that it's one-party rule."
Roberts said that for the most part, SG is a
static environment.
"They've done little to change much of the
criticisms of previous administrations," he said.
, Roberts insisted his party is not anti-Greek.
"We don't have a problem with the Greeks
being who they are," he said. "The Greek sys-
tem is an incredibly important and useful part
of campus."
The problem is that they're overrepresented
in SG, he said.
"We don't want to exclude anyone from SG,
but we want students to be represented propor-
tionally," Roberts said. "The Greek system only
represents 15 percent of the campus. The other
85 percent are potentially being left out of that
system."
He added that Impact is going to push
change through SG.
"We really want to open SG up," he said.
"We're not just paying lip service to the student
body."

'Iron' Mayor Hanrahan in labor; Commission scrambles


By CRYSTAL HENRY
Alligator Writer
chenry@alligator org

Gainesville Mayor Pegeen
Hanrahan went into labor Monday
morning, Mayor-Commissioner Pro
Tem Chuck Chestnut announced
at the City Commission's regular
bimonthly meeting.


Chestnut will take on Hanrahan's
duties while she is on medical leave.
One outspoken resident voiced
his concern about the mayor being
absent from the proceeding, but
Chestnut assured him that each
member of the commission has a
say in every issue that arises, and
the mayor specifically handles cer-
emonial procedures. Therefore, he


said, the commission could handle
any concerns residents may have.
Although rumors were flying
around City Hall that Hanrahan
wouldn't return until Dec. 1, some
think it could be sooner.
"She's an iron woman," said
Commissioner Warren Nielsen.
"She could be back here tonight."
During the meeting the com-


mission agreed to meet with the UF
Student Senate on Sept. 20 to discuss
the Civic Lights project.
Civic Lights was developed
by the UF College of Fine Arts in
collaboration with the European
Lighting Designers Association and
Nielsen, among others, to explore
new forms and energy resources
for lighting. The project aims to


strengthen the university's link to
Gainesville by teaming professional
lighting designers with students and
hosting an exhibition in the city.
As of Monday night Bob Woods,
spokesman for Gainesville's city
manager, said he had not heard any-
thing further about Hanrahan.
This will be Hanrahan's first
child.

NATION
FEMA director steps down
WASHINGTON (AP) -
Federal Emergency Management
Agency Director Michael Brown
resigned Monday; three days after
losing on-site command of the
Hurricane Katrina relief effort. The
White House picked a FEMA offi-
cial with three decades of firefight-
ing experience as his replacement.
R. David Paulison, head of
FEMA's emergency preparedness
force, will lead the beleaguered
agency, according to three admin-
istration sources who spoke on
condition of anonymity because
the announcement had not yet
been made.
As chief of the Miami-Dade
Fire Rescue Department, Paulison
led 1,900 personnel under a $200
million operating budget. He was
also in charge of Dade County's
emergency management office, ac-
cording to his biography.
Paulison will lead an agency
that has been under fire for its
response to the Katrina disaster.
Local officials and members of
Congress have cited confusion
afid a lagging response to the Gulf
Coast devastation.
Brown had taken much of the
heat and was relieved of his on-site
command Friday In an interview
Monday with The Associated
Press, Brown said he resigned "in
the best interest of the agency and
best interest of the president."
His decision was not a surprise.
Brown was recalled abruptly to
Washington on Friday, a dear vote
of no confidence from his supe-
riors at the White House and the
Homeland Security Department.
He also was accused of padding
his resume, which Brown denied.

Frat hosts kickball tourna-
ment to remember brother
When Theta Chi Fraternity
member Kyle Schuemann died in
an alcohol-related incident in 2003,
his fraternity brothers made a vow
not to forget his memory.
To that end Sunday afternoon,
the Interfratenmity Council raised
nearly $6,500 at the first Kyle
Schuemann Memorial Kickball
Tournament.
The money will go to Be
Responsible About Drinking 21,
a nonprofit organization founded
when Bradley McCue, a Michigan
State University student, died of
alcohol poisoning after celebrating
his 21st birthday
Theta Chi President Aron
Weingard said the fraternity want-
ed to hold a philanthropic event in
remembrance of Schuemann and
turned to his parents when decid-
ing where the money should go.

"We asked what they wanted
money to go to," he said. "They
specifically said [Be Responsible
About Drinking 21]."
The group seeks to educate
students about responsible
drinking.
Schuemann's death was one
of five alcohol-related fatalities at
UF following Bernie Machen's
appointment as president, contrib-
uting to Machen's efforts to curb
binge and underage drinking.
"We put a strong value on
drinking responsibly," Theta Chi
Philanthropy Chairman Michael
Brevda said.
All 16 Panhellenic Council
sororities participated in the
fundraiser by taking part in the
kickball tournament.
UF sophomore Caitlin Parry,
20, signed up to play for Kappa
Delta's team.
"They lost a member of their
fraternity because of an alcohol-
related death. We wanted to
show support for him, for their
fraternity and for the cause,"
Parry said.
The event took place -on Lake
Alice field with more than 300
participants.
Money was raised through
team entry fees, corporate spon-

sors and T-shirt sales.
Weingard said the fraternity
will continue the event next year.
"We want to do it forever to
always remember Kyle," he said.

LGBT assembly shows 'there's no place like UF'


By DIANA MAZZELLA
Alligator Writer
dmazzella@alligator.org

Officials, students and professors
explored opportunities at UF for les-
bian, gay, bisexual and transgender
students and their allies,, and dis-
cussed what it means to be a part of
that community Monday night.
UF President Bernie Machen
gave his wishes that the LGBT com-
munity can share in a mutually ben-
eficial relationship with UF.
He mentioned his support of the
LGBT community at the University
of Utah, where he was president be-
fore coming to UF. They had given
him a clock, which he said will sit
beside the plaque he received from
UF's Pride Student Union.
"I appreciate your willingness
to support us, but the best is yet to
come," Machen said.
He was joined by his "lifetime
partner" his wife, Chris at the
event, he said.
Hugs were a constant theme of
the event, when audience members
were directed to hug the person next
to them, and the host requested new
arrivals to join in.
"We're here to help and support
you in any way that we can," Dean
of Students Gene Zdziarski said.
About 200 to 300 people attended
the event, said Ricardo Cortez, LGBT

day, in protest of not enough gender-neutral restrooms on campus for transgender people.


Student Affairs Cabinet Director for
Student Government.
The theme of the night, "There's
no place like UF," a play on "The


Wizard of Oz,'" was apparent from
the balloon rainbow near the en-
trance of the Reitz Union Grand
Ballroom.


The Pride Student Union also de-
livered its own rendition of the film.
Dorothy dropped an LGBT cen-
ter on the 'Witch of Homophobia'


in the land of UF. The skit also
included the "Queercrow," a trans-
gendered woman and Ally the lion,
who wanted to learn how to be a
better friend to the community.
The good witch ultimately de-
feated the wicked witch of hetero-
sexism, and Dorothy discovered she
was bisexual.
Student Body President Joe
Goldberg said the assembly was im-
portant and that the Pride Student
Union "has the best meetings on this
campus" because of their thought-
fulness, unity and uniqueness.
Main speaker Yolanda Fairell,
a lesbian professor from Keiser
College, said the Oz theme was
appropriate because it discussed
the magic in the world. She drew
frcra it that brains, managing feel-
ings and developing spirituality are
important.
"The crux of becoming an adult is
managing your feelings," she said.
When she asked attendees "Do
you feel me?" to gauge whether they
understood her, they gave a cheer.
One of the groups tabling at
the event, the Gator Gay-Straight
Alliance, is having an event of its
own this week.
It has set up a toilet representing
a bathroom in Turlington Plaza and
a makeshift dorm in the Plaza of the
Americas as a statement for equality,
club member Carina Emery said.

Hillel program offers free travel to Israel for UF students


By IVETTE MENDEZ
Alligator Contributing Writer

Dozens of UF students will ride
camels in Israel, shop in the mar-
ketplaces of Ben Yehudah and visit
locations most Americans have only
read about and all for free.
"We do an archeological dig,"
said Noam Ben Tov, an Israeli na-
tive who helps lead the expeditions.
"Also, on the last trip we went kaya-
king on the Jordan River."
Students can take part in an-
other such excursion through the
Birthright Israel program.


Birthright Israel provides a vari-
ety of free trips to Israel for students
across the country.
Ben Tov, who works at UF's
Hillel Jewish center, said he at-
tended the peace rally where Israeli
Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was
assassinated.
"He was walking down the stairs
to what was supposed to be a safe
area, and the assassin shot him three
times," Ben Tov said.

Students will see the square where
he witnessed the assassination.
Other places they will visit
during the 10-day trip include
Jerusalem, the Western Wall, the

The trips are paid for by Jewish

said. "We had three [trips] sent."
Registration for the winter-break

students between the ages of 18-26

Wandering


pet found
By HEATHER RAPP
Alligator Contributing Writer

Some Christmas gifts are worth
waiting nine months for. Just ask
Becky Bias.
When Bias lost her dog last
Christmas Eve, she immediately
scoured her rural neighborhood in
an off-road vehicle, plastered the
area with fliers and searched local
animal shelters.
After months of searching for
Mattie Lou with no results, Bias
sought a new method: the Internet.
"I just had this gut feeling that
I needed to look one more time,"
she said.
When the 24-year-old resident
of Keystone Heights entered her
canine's information into a search
field Wednesday on Petfinder.com,
a Web site that catalogues animals
available for adoption, she finally
had success.
Mattie Lou, or Lou Lou, as Bias
refers to her 11-year-old English
springer spaniel, showed up on the
Web site after coming to the Lake
Area Animal Hospital in Melrose.
Every Christmas, Bias' 5-year-
old daughter and 3-year-old son
stay with their father while she and
Mattie Lou enjoy each other's com-
pany at home.
Last year Bias, a UF employee,
noticed a skin irritation on the dog's
neck and removed her collar, her

discovered Mattie Lou's listing and
photo while at work at 1 p.m.
"From the time I saw her picture
to the time they called me back was
the longest two hours of my life,"
Bias said.
While Bias was confident it was
her dog, her co-workers were in-
credulous.
"They were like, 'How do you
know it's her?'" she said. "After 10
years with this animal, I know what
her freckles look like. I know how
she holds her head. I know the way
she sits."
Sure enough when Blackburn
responded, Bias described her petf
as only an owner could, including-
Mattie Lou's three missing teeth and
one "droopy nipple," Blackburn
said cheerfully. When the vet called
out the dog's name, her ears perked
up in excitement.
Bias raced from work to the ani-
mal hospital at 3 p.m.
"The owner and dog sat on the
floor, and the dog was licking her
face, and the owner was crying,"
Blackburn said, describing the re-
union. "We all got tears in our eyes,
the staff, because the owner was.so
happy, and the dog was so happy."
Recalling the incident continues
to bring joyous tears to Bias as well.
"She was the prettiest thing I've
seen in a long time," she said.
Blackburn advises all pet owners
to look into getting microchip tags
for their dogs and cats. The com-
puter chip, containing the owner's
contact information, is small enough
to fit into a hypodermic needle and
is inserted beneath the skin.


Student's car window broken in public parking lot

Katie Ghelerter, 19, an SFCC sophomore,
found her sport utility vehicle's rear window
smashed after parking in a public parking lot
Saturday because there was insufficient park-


ing at her apartment complex, Oxford Terrace.
With only 36 parking spaces available,
Action Realty, which owns Oxford Terrace,
advises residents to park in grassy areas,
public parking lots and even on campus if
they can't find parking.
"They told us to park in UF student park-
ing lots and ride a bus to our home," said


Ghelerter. "We can't buy UF student parking
decals if we are not UF students."
The suspect broke into
PubliC Ghelerter's 2003 Nissan Xterra
Safety and climbed into the vehicle.
Blood and fingerprints were
discovered on the seats.
"It's a downtown property. Parking is


limited," said C.J. Merrill, office manager of
Action Realty.
Merrill declined to say what he would do
about Ghelerter's vehicle. Oxford Terrace ex-
pects to have more parking next year.
"There are criminals that break into cars
for next to nothing," said GPD spokesman
Sgt. Keith Kameg.

STUDENT ACTIVISM

Gator Plunge kicks off UF's commitment to service


By ADRIANNA C. RODRIGUEZ
Alligator Contributing Writer
Gator Plunge kicked off the university's 50
Million Minutes of Service campaign Saturday
with an estimated 200 volunteers donating
their morning to community-service projects.
The UF Center for Leadership and Service
held the event, the largest single-day commu-
nity service project of the school year.
UF student, staff and faculty volunteers
gathered at the Plaza of the Americas at 8 a.m. to
participate in projects throughout Gainesville,
including environmental cleanup, working
with the elderly and disabled, and sorting do-
nations for victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Before leaving to the project sites, Student
4Body President Joe Goldberg and UF Vice
President for Student Affairs Patricia Telles-


Irvin spoke to the volunteers.
"Very exciting to see so many of you out
here," Goldberg said. "Community service is
one of the most important things we do here
at the university."
Gator Plunge volunteers worked with
organizations such as Keep Alachua County
Beautiful, Habitat for Humanity and the
Association for Retarded Citizens.
"We are kicking off an incredible commit-
ment," Telles-Irvin said. "You have decided to
touch the lives of many in the community."
The Volunteer Center of Alachua County
will coordinate community efforts to match
the university's 50 million minutes of service
for a combined total of 100 million minutes of
service during this year's campaign.
Telles-Irvin said that as a survivor of
Hurricane Andrew, her heart went out to the


"We are kicking off an incredible
commitment. You have decided
to touch the lives of many in the
community."
Patricia Telles-Irvin
UF vice president for Student Affairs

victims of Hurricane Katrina and held a mo-
ment of silence for them.
As part of Gator Plunge, a group of vol-
unteers went to a storage facility to sort food-
drive donations and begin transporting goods
collected by the center.
In addition an estimated 100 volunteers
collected money for the Gator Spare Change
Drive on Saturday before the football game.
Through the drive, volunteers have been


collecting monetary donations around cam-
pus, at football games and student assemblies
for the hurricane victims.
The center has been working with the local
chapter of the American Red Cross to get the
donations to Hurricane Katrina evacuees in
the area, said Vanessa Frisby, 21, center office
manager and UF student.
The drive's goal is to raise between $15,000
and $20,000 to be donated by the center to
the Red Cross as "UF Student Donations to
Hurricane Relief."
There is no set goal for donations of food
and other items to the hurricane relief effort,
but Frisby said "they definitely had an over-
flowing office" full of goods.
The center will hold both the food drive
and the spare change drive until the end of
September.

Editorial


Wrong idea

Universities can't

balance minority scale
L ook around campus.
Does the brightness sting your eyes?
Throughout Turlington Plaza, inside the Reitz Union
and in every classroom, white kids conquer the crowd.
Hispanics are almost 11 percent of the student body.
Blacks are about 7 percent.
Asians are less than 7 percent.
And the American Indians can't even make it up to half a
percent.
That's probably the fault of our white ancestors and their
smallpox.
But we know Florida is more diverse than that.
Miami is basically Cuba. African Americans make up much
more of our state than 7 percent.
The question is: Should a university mimic the demograph-
ics of society?
At the UF Board of Trustees meeting Friday, President Bernie
Machen stressed the need to increase minority enrollment if the
university is to obtain its goal of becoming a Top 10 public re-
search institution.
The Editorial Board argues that this isn't the university's job
and doesn't have much to do with academics and research.
It has to do with society's flaws as a whole.
If not enough minorities apply, how are we to balance our
enrollment? And if Florida's poorer residents, who are predomi-
nantly minorities, are getting poor education from kindergarten
through high school, how does a university right that wrong?
It doesn't. Nothing is fixed at this stage in the game.
We'd argue that this is a problem cemented before universi-
ties even enter the picture.
Primary and secondary schools are incredibly segregated.
Poor neighborhoods get the worst teachers because the more
qualified teachers have the choice of a cushier job.
Schools that have inferior FCAT grades receive less funding
and support, and those schools tend to be in poor areas.
If a minority student is the first in his or her family to have the
option of college, help in applying for schools and scholarships
is scarce. Counselors are usually overworked and useless.
We know this situation doesn't apply to every minority
student.
We also know there are excellent minority students.
These students are not denied access to any university be-
cause of their race. In fact they're warmly welcomed.
Universities fervently recruit them because they fill both re-
quirements: They're good students, and they raise the minority
percentage, which looks good for the university.
But the percentage of qualified minority students is very dif-
ferent from the percentage of minorities.
A university cannot right this wrong. A university is for a
select group of people.
Yes, that's right. A university, especially one that's headed
for the Top 10, is not for everybody, public or not.
Everyone gets into an elementary school, a middle school
and a high school. That's where underprivileged minority stu-
dents are wronged.
UF does try to get to minority students early with its Alliance
program, which prepares students in "struggling" high schools
for college.
It's not a university's job, but it's a good idea.
In February, President Bush proposed to cut funding to
Upward Bound, a college preparatory program that helps low-
income students get into college. Teachers and tutors in the pro-
gram provide individual attention and additional education.
This program is a step in the right direction. Cutting its fund-
ing hurts the entire education spectrum.
But the answer is not for a university to solve.
That shortchanges minorities and education alike.

Column

Brown another example of cronyism


political patronage is an inevitability of American
politics, but President Bush's decisions in the human
resource department make about as much sense as a
monkey hurling poop fastballs.
Michael Brown's incompetence as the director of the
Federal Emergency Management Agency is more evidence
of the disgusting degree of cronyism permeating the Bush
administration. Unfortunately, thousands of people are ei-
ther suffering or dead due to Brown's failed management of.
the Hurricane Katrina disaster.
His Monday resignation is a step in the right direction,
but it shouldn't have come to this. The goal is to prevent
the mess, not send in the cleanup crew when the stuff hits
the fan.
An investigation need not go any further than his re-
sume. In 2001 without any experience in emergency man-
agement, Brown began working for FEMA after being hired
by his college buddy and then-FEMA Director Joe Allbaugh.
Before moving to FEMA, Brown was the commissioner of
judges and stewards for the International Arabian Horse
Association until he resigned due to legal issues.
Unfortunately, the American people would have been
better served in the face of a nationwide "My Little Pony"
crisis than a Category 4 hurricane. But luckily for Brown, the
person who hired him just happened to be President Bush's
former chief of staff when he was governor of Texas.
When CNN's .Paula Zahn vehemently questioned
Brown about the thousands of victims in the New Orleans
Convention Center still without food and water, he re-
sponded, "Paula, the federal government did not even
knoiv about the Convention Center people until today"
- "today" being almost three days after the Convention
Center began operating as a hurricane shelter.
Brown responded to Ted Koppel's similar line of ques-


Aaron Blye tioning on ABC's "Nightline" by
Blye's Eyes claiming the federal government had
ablye@alligator.org no "factual evidence" as to the situa-
tion at the Convention Center.
Mr. Brown, have you ever heard of
a newfangled contraption called the television? Did you not
hear the calls for help? Then again what language do those
funny-sounding New Orleans residents speak anyways?
Unfortunately, the current Bush appointees continue to
support the status quo of incompetence.
Let's reminisce, shall we?
Former National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice ig-
nored a memo before Sept. 11, 2001 from former counterter-
rorism tsar Richard Clarke entitled, "Bin Laden determined
to attack inside the U.S." She claimed it was largely a "his-
torical document." Rice was later promoted to Secretary of
State when her hairdo alone was grounds for termination.
George Tenet, the former CIA director who called the
claims that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruc-
tion a "slam dunk," was awarded the Presidential Medal of
Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor.
Paul Wolfowitz, the former U.S. deputy secretary of de-
fense, ignored the claims of former Army Vice Chief of Staff
General Eric Shinseki that it could take "several hundred
thousand" soldiers to successfully stabilize Iraq. He is how
head of the World Bank.
And let's not forget good ol' Secretary of Defense Donald
Rumsfeld, who kept his job despite his mismanagement of
the war in Iraq and the hazing-gone-wrong Abu Ghraib
prison scandal.
To the victor go the spoils, and in this case it's downright
rotten!
Aaron Blye is a political campaigning graduate student. His
column appears on Tuesday.

Today's question:
Was Michael Brown director of
FEMA because of cronyism?


The results of Monday's poll are

Gator slate also mixed up some districts


S LATIN from page 1

Every candidate on Gator's
slate for District A, which in-
cludes four zip codes, is Greek.
Josh Weiss, an Alpha Epsilon
Pi Fraternity member, is one of
them. And he thinks the party is
on the right track.
"I think we are doing a very
good job of representing the en-
tire student body," he said. "By
and large everyone who comes
out to slate with either party has
the entire student body in mind."
Weiss said members of the
Greek community tend to be am-
bitious people and stick together.
Gator Party spokesman
Thomas Philpot said that mem-
bers on his party's slate were
chosen based on the "merits of
their qualifications."
"They are committed, and we
are committed to make sure they
serve you best," he said. "I think
the focus this Fall should be,
what will these candidates do for
the students? At the end of the
day, we are all UF students."


Impact Party District A Senate
candidate Ben Freeman said that
SG isn't representative of every
member of the Swamp.
"It's very heavily Greek. It
should be a little more representa-
tive. That is what our whole cam-
paign is going to be," he said.
Interfraternity Council
President John Dicks was the
only District F Senate candidate
Gator had slated, but he had to
be removed. A typographical
error caused Dicks to be placed
in the
Student Government op en-
Elections ing for
District
F though he resides in District B,
Goldberg said.
"He probably wouldn't have
ended up. being on the slate
anyway," he said. "He's clearly
not a District F senator. That's
obviously a mistake on our part.
It doesn't make sense that he was
put on as District F."
But Dicks said he developed
a cold last weekend and decided
that the illness was caused by be-
ing too active.


Dicks said he will not run for
Senate this Fall but may recon-
sider the decision for the Spring
2006 election.
Dicks added that he originally
slated with Gator because he
thought he had a good chance of
winning.
"I did it because Joe Goldberg
is a friend of mine," he said. "I
like what he's doing."
Dicks met Goldberg on the
second day of Phi Delta Theta's
rush three years ago.
"We've been friends ever
since," he said.
Philpot said if Dicks had be-
come a senator, it would not have
been a conflict of interest.
Impact Party District D Senate
candidate Seth Entin is the only
Greek on the Impact Party slate.
"I believe in online voting,
better spending and an end to
legacy positions," Entin said. "I
like fighting for the underdog."
Entin was Roberts's big broth-
er in Zeta Beta Tau before Roberts
left the fraternity.
"I don't think politics really plays
an issue with friends," he said.

Players say defeating caliber opponents is key


SWAM P, from page 16

Swamp into his personal debut party, racking up 204 rushing
yards. Of course, the Hurricanes were ranked No. 1, so it could
have been an anomaly. No. 18 LSU proved otherwise a month
later, destroying the Gators 36-7. Ever since, UF's home field ad-
vantage has all but disappeared. I
So was it Zook's fault and will Urban Meyer magically re-
store the Swamp luster, or are home losses to be expected?
"Getting the Swamp back is the first thing that we really need
to do," cornerback Dee Webb said. "We want to have an edge
here at home. We want to regain that momentum and swagger.


We want opposing teams to come to the Swamp knowing that
they are going to get beat."
With Tennessee and Florida State both making trips to
Gainesville this season, safety Jarvis Herring said this would
be the perfect time for the Gators to reclaim.the Swamp, but he
admits it may take time.
"That might take more than a season," Herring. said. "The
Swamp was a pretty scary place for a while. It'll be good this
year, especially with the caliber of teams coming in."
Just ask junior safety Nick Brooks how long it's been since the
Swamp was-one of college football's most feared stadiums.
"I don't remember," Brooks said.
That's how long it's been.


Meyer to wait until game time to announce kicker


FOOTBALL, from page 16

Volunteers personnel.
"Is that the reason C.J. is here? Sure,"
Meyer joked. "No, the reason he's here is
because he's a high-quality, high-charac-
ter person and I kind of like people like
that in the coaching profession."

DEATH THREAT DISTRACTION: Side judge
Bobby Moreau, who made the controver-
sial personal foul call against Dallas Baker
at the end of last year's Tennessee game,
will not officiate this year's contest be-


cause of death threats, The Associated Press
reported. Moreau was slated to work the
game before SEC supervisor of officials
Bobby Gaston decided it would be safer
to send him to the Vanderbilt-Mississippi
game.
"The media would have exposed it,
and the fans would have eaten him alive,"
Gaston said. "I just decided that was not a
fair thing for him."
Said Moreau: "I would like to be there,
but Bobby Gaston is my boss. I under-
stand. There are some Looney Toons out
there."


SPECIAL TEAMS WOES: Forget field goals;
UF is worried about converting on extra
points. Saturday, the Gators goofed on
their third extra point of the season.
Meyer will wait until game time to an-
nounce whether Chris Hetland or Eric
Nappy will start.
"I think we have some good kickers
but I'm not sure we have a great one,"
Meyer said. "We better become great
real fast because [of] the history of this
[Tennessee] game and I know last
year what happened."


APP, from page 16

comer.
Still, Fulmer remains so unnerved by the
possibility of C.J. revealing the Vols hand
signals, that he suggested having multiple
coaches simultaneously signal in plays
from the sideline to confuse a potential
army of orange-and-blue-clad Windtalkers.
Suprisingly, Meyer seemed to consider
such an operation preposterous, at least
publicly. And when asked if his brother
ever talked to him about Fulmer's playbook,
Chris giggled out a "no" through a poop-in-
gesting grin. The boy sure can't lie.
Let's cut the crap fellas. We all know
Fulmer's playbook has sprung a Leak. Just
come out and say it. Even if it isn't true, at
least you're getting into their heads. Such a
conservative move is particularly surprising
from Meyer, a coach who fired up players at
Utah by plastering BYU logos over urinals.
So speak up and start some controversy

FOOTBALL

Gators face powerful UT rush


By ERIC ESTEBAN
Alligator Staff Writer
eesteban@alligator.org

Describing it as a freight train
at full speed wouldn't do it justice,
but for the better part of a decade,
Tennessee running backs have made
it look all too easy against the Gators.
Since 1998 the victor has fluctu-
ated between the two schools, but
one constant has been the Volunteers'
dedication of being known as
Running Back-U.
Shawn Bryson, Jamal Lewis,
Travis Henry, Travis Stephens, Jabari
Davis and Cedric Houston all left
their cleat marks on the rivalry game
throughout the years. Last year in
Knoxville, it was the same story for
UF, compliments of Houston.
A relentless ground attack con-
sumed time off of the clock, drained
spirits and kept the chains on the
move as the Gators lost a game in the
waning seconds that was within their
grasps.
"That's who they are, and they
take great pride in [running the ball],"
Coach Urban Meyer said. "In the last
10 years, I don't think there has been
a more successful team in the country
with just wins and losses, so why
change?"
The Gators are hoping that an im-
proved defensive line, which Meyer


has constantly praised as being the
most improved unit on the team, and
a new proven defensive coaching
scheme will give UF the advantage in
the trenches this year.
"I don't care what I have to
do to make a huge play or
what I have to do to get my
team going, but I'm willing to
do it."
Jeremy Mincey
Senior defensive end

Meyer's defensive front is play-
ing with more confidence, ath-
leticism and maturity than what the
Volunteers' dominating offensive line
saw last year. Tennessee's strong front
paved the way for 171 yards on the
ground and-only gave up one sack,
but with injuries and depth issues at
the position now, senior running back
Gerald Riggs might have to power
the offense on his own.
Tennessee senior Richie Gandy
has missed roughly eight months
with injuries and has never started at
center, but they are relying on him to
be back and playing on Saturday.
"I think one thing about their
tailback, Gerald Riggs, is he's a big
power back, but he's also a guy who
can get the edge on you," Meyer said.


"Their offensive line is well-coached,
and they're gigantic."
Meyer might have enough trust
in his secondary to load the line of
scrimmage up, but to stop Riggs, who
gained 63 yards on 15 carries against
UF last year, most of the responsibil-
ity will fall on the defensive line and
linebackers.
"Tennessee is going to come at you
and pound it with the run until you
stop them," linebacker Brandon Siler
said. "If we can't stop them, then they
will run all over us, so it's important
for us to stop that and make them put
the ball in the air."
One member of the defensive
staff, co-defensive coordinator Greg
Mattison, had the benefit of coaching
against the Volunteers' ground attack
with Notre Dame last year and his
scheme proved to be more success-
ful than the Gators' attempt as the
Irish held them to just 58 net yards
rushing.
Couple that with a hungry and
talented defensive line and times
could be changing in one of the
Southeastern Conference's most de-
ciding games.
"I don't care what I have to do to
make a huge play or what Ihave to do
to get my team going, but I'm willing
to do it," senior defensive end Jeremy
Mincey said. "We are going to turn it
around and that's my word."


Collymore


highlights win
By BRYAN JONES
Alligator Writer

Jane Collymore's 11 kills in the second game of
Saturday's match against Southern California was
highlight material literally. On Monday, Coach Mary
Wise said she will be sending a tape of Collymore's ca-
--- areer-high 30-kill performance to the
All-American committee.
PI.T "We have never, since we've been
J here, had a player do what Jane
2 ~Collymore did in game two," Wise
said. "That tape is going directly to
the committee.
"Eleven kills that's just not done.
Collymore She was in a total different zone. I
don't know if we would have won
that match if she had not had that performance."
Collymore also surpassed Ashley Mullis on UF's ca-
reer-kills list, moving into eighth place in school history.
REDEMPTION: Facing USC for the first time since the
2003 national title game, UF defeated the Trojans for
the second time in seven matches Saturday.
"I would be kidding myself if I didn't think after
the match that I would like to have called a few of our
ex-players. to tell them, 'Okay, finally we got them,' and
there were a few messages left on my machine as well,"
Wise said.

Gators looking to reclaim Swamp


By ANDREW ABRAMSON
, Alligator Staff Writer
aabramson@alligator.org

Days before Tennessee heads
to town, Brandon Siler is aw-
fully hungry.
A few years ago, Siler's
stomach wouldn't have been
growling so loudly.
Back then, a home game
against Tennessee usually
meant a "W" for the Gators.
But in recent seasons, teams
have managed to feast on the
Gators in their own backyard,
dessert and all.
"The big boys are coming
into our house trying to take
our cookies, so we got to defend
our cookies," Siler said. "We've
got to defend the Swamp."
In the heyday of UF football
back in the 1990s, it would have
been difficult to imagine that
Tennessee could enter a game
against the Gators with an op-
portunity to win three consecu-
tive games at the Swamp.
That will be the case on
Saturday, when Tennessee
attempts to bring the Urban
Meyer honeymoon to a crash-
ing halt and the Gators try to
show the college football world
that the Sivamp is indeed the
most brutal environment for an
opposing team.
"You want to take [the
Swamp] back against a top
team," Siler said. "That's how
you take back the Swamp, by
facing a top opponent and
beating them. This is why you
come to Florida, to play in a
game like this. It's something
I've been looking forward to all


Tim Casey/ Alligator Staff
For Dee Webb and the rest of UF's defense, re-establishing dominance in the Swamp is a
must. The Gators will look to repair the venue's lost mystique Saturday against the Vols.


off-season."
During Steve Spurrier's
12-year reign in Gainesville,
the Gators lost just four home
games, including the season
finale against Tennessee in 2001


that could have put UF in the
national championship game.
But in the last three years un-
der the guidance of Ron Zook,
the Gators shockingly dropped

Another Leak causes problems for UT


By LOUIS ANASTASIS
Alligator Staff Writer
lanastasis@alligator.org

Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer is really
concerned about that Leak at UF. It's just
not the one you're probably expecting him
to lose sleep over.
Nope, Fulmer isn't just scheming to stop
quarterback Chris Leak. He's also zeroing
in on C.J. Leak, Chris' older brother, who
played at Tennessee and may be helping the
Gators with a little inside information.
"C.J., I'm sure, knows a lot about our
offense and about signals and our system,


and that's certainly something we have to
address," Fulmer said.
C.J., who played as
a two-way players for
Tennessee the previous
two seasons, now works
as an office aid for the
University Athletic
Association. At the
Southeastern Conference
Fulmer Media Days, Meyer said
his responsibilities would
revolve around paperwork in the office.
Now, with conference supremacy on the
line, C.J. may be stuffing Meyer's envelopes


with some pages of Fulmer's playbook.
The coach is so concerned with Chris'
brother that he will turn Tennessee's side-
lines into a makeshift baseball dugout.
Fulmer plans on simultaneously using two
or three coaches and players to relay differ-
ent sideline signals to confuse the Gators..
"It can really be a distraction," Fulmer
said.
Meyer downplays all of this to a
degree. The Gators will use video, he said,
to analyze Tennessee's schemes. C.J., how-
ever, will serve as a resource regarding

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 STUDENT GOVERNMENT Gator ruled by Greeks Editor's note: This is the first in a four-part series outlining the issues of the Student Senate Fall election. By DAVID COHEN Alligator Writer dcohen@alligator.org They're pretty one-sided. They make up more than half of the reigning party's new list of candidates but have one lone member in the competition's. They're ambitious. They're friends. They're Greek. The r Party The difference between the two parties running in Student Government elections this month is clear: More than half of The Gator Party's Student Senate candidates are members of Greek chapters, while only one of the Impact Party's candidates is Greek. Student Senate candidates are Greek 2 percent of the Fall election slate s Greek *Greek students make up less than 10 percent of the UF population. Jennifer LaBrie / Alligator Staff At least 26 out of the 46, about 57 percent, of The Gator Party's Student Senate candidates for the Fall election hail from a fraternity or sorority. Only one out of the Impact Party's 40 slated candidates is Greek. As of Spring 2005, UF's Greek community is comprised of 61 chapters with 4,582 active members, which is less than 10 percent of UF's nearly 49,000-strong student population. Some UF students question the degree to which Student Goverment parties represent all pieces of the reptile pie. But Student Body President Joe Goldberg said that he doesn't want to talk about it. "I think the Greek question is irrelevant," he said. "I don't think it's an issue at all. That gets blown out of proportion." Impact spokesman Adam Roberts agreed. "We didn't even ask that question," he said. "We weren't even concerned. We cared about what their ideas were." However, Roberts said a problem exists. "The problem is not Greeks themselves. The problem is the fact that it's one-party rule." Roberts said that for the most part, SG is a static environment. "They've done little to change much of the criticisms of previous administrations," he said. Roberts insisted his party is not anti-Greek. "We don't have a problem with the Greeks being who they are," he said. "The Greek system is an incredibly important and useful part of campus." The problem is that they're overrepresented in SG, he said. "We don't want to exclude anyone from SG, but we want students to be represented proportionally," Roberts said. "The Greek system only represents 15 percent of the campus. The other 85 percent are potentially being left out of that system." He added that Impact is going to push change through SG. "We really want to open SG up," he said.

'Iron' Mayor Hanrahan in labor; Commission scrambles By CRYSTAL HENRY Alligator Writer chenry@alligator.org Gainesville Mayor Pegeen Hanrahan went into labor Monday morning, Mayor-Commissioner Pro Tem Chuck Chestnut announced at the City Commission's regular bimonthly meeting. Chestnut will take on Hanrahan's duties while she is on medical leave. One outspoken resident voiced his concern about the mayor being absent from the proceeding, but Chestnut assured him that each member of the commission has a say in every issue that arises, and the mayor specifically handles ceremonial procedures. Therefore, he said, the commission could handle any concerns residents may have. Although rumors were flying around City Hall that Hanrahan wouldn't return until Dec. 1, some think it could be sooner. "She's an iron woman," said Commissioner Warren Nielsen. "She could be back here tonight." During the meeting the cornmission agreed to meet with the UF Student Senate on Sept.20 to discuss the Civic Lights project. Civic Lights was developed by the UF College of Fine Arts in collaboration with the European Lighting Designers Association and Nielsen, among others, to explore new forms and energy resources for lighting. The project aims to strengthen the university's link to Gainesville by teaming professional lighting designers with students and hosting an exhibition in the city. As of Monday night Bob Woods, spokesman for Gainesville's city manager, said he had not heard anything further about Hanrahan. This will be Hanrahan's first child.

2, ALLIGATOR S TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 News Today NATION FEM A director steps down WASHINGTON (AP) Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Michael Brown resigned Monday, three days after losing on-site command of the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. The White House picked a FEMA official with three decades of firefighting experience as his replacement. R. David Paulison, head of FEMA's emergency preparedness force, will lead the beleaguered agency, according to three administration sources who spoke on condition of anonymity because the announcement had not yet been made. As chief of the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department, Paulison led 1,900 personnel under a $200 million operating budget. He was also in charge of Dade County's emergency management office, according to his biography. Paulison will lead an agency that has been under fire for its response to the Katrina disaster. Local officials and members of Congress have cited confusion and a lagging response to the Gulf Coast devastation. Brown had taken much of the heat and was relieved of his on-site command Friday. In an interview Monday with The Associated Press, Brown said he resigned "in the best interest of the agency and best interest of the president." His decision was not a surprise. Brown was recalled abruptly to Washington on Friday, a clear vote of no confidence from his superiors at the White House and the Homeland Security Department. He also was accused of padding his resume, which Brown denied. CAMPUS Frat hosts kickball tournament to remember brother When Theta Chi Fraternity member Kyle Schuemann died in an alcohol-related incident in 2003, his fraternity brothers made a vow not to forget his memory.

The money will go to Be Responsible About Drinking 21, a nonprofit organization founded when Bradley McCue, a Michigan State University student, died of alcohol poisoning after celebrating his 21st birthday Theta Chi President Aron Weingard said the fraternity wanted to hold a philanthropic event in remembrance of Schuemann and turned to his parents when deciding where the money should go.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 E ALLIGATOR, 3 LG: 3 assmb shows 'there's no place 1ike UF' By DIANA MAZZELLA Alligator Writer dtazzela@aligator.org Officials, students and professors explored opporturtities at UF for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students and their allies, and discussed what it means to be a part of that community Monday night. UF President Bernie Machen gave his wishes that the LGBT coinmunity can share in a mutually beneficial relationship with UP. He mentioned his support of the LGBT community at the University of Utah, where he was president before coming to UF. They had given him a clock, which he said will sit beside the plaque he received from UF's Pride Student Union. "I appreciate your willingness to support us, but the best is yet to come," Machen said. He was joined by his "lifetime partner" -his wife, Chris -at the event, he said. Hugs were a constant theme of the event, when audience members were directed to hug the person next to them, and the host requested new arrivals to join in. "We're here to help and support you in any way that we can," Dean of Students Gene Zd-ziarski said. About 200 to 300 people attended the event, said Ricardo Cortez, LGBT Ia 111i nubil /A ig u Kyle Orta, a member of the Gator Gay-Straight Alliance, tables with a toilet on Turlington Plaza on Monday, in protest of not enough gender-neutral restrooms on campus for transgender people. Student Affairs Cabinet Director for Student Government. The theme of the night, "There's no place like UP," a play on "The Wizard of Oz,"' was apparent from the balloon rainbow near the entrance of the Reitz Union Grand Ballroom. The Pride Student Union also delivered its own rendition of the film. Dorothy dropped an LGBT center on the 'Witch of Homophobia' in the land of UF. The skit also included the "Queercrow," a transgendered woman and Ally the lion, who wanted to learn how to be a better friend to the communiity. The good witch ultimately defeated the wicked witch of heterosexism, and Dorothy discovered she was bisexual. Student Body President Joe Goldberg said the assembly was important and .that the Pride Student Union "has the best meetings on this campus" because of their thoughtfulness, unity and uniqueness. Main speaker Yolanda Fairell, a lesbian professor from Keiser College, said the Oz theme was appropriate because it discussed the magic in the world. She drew frcrn it that brains, managing feelings and developing spirituality are important. "The crux of becoming an adult is managing your feelings," she said. When she asked attendees "Do you feel me?" to gauge whether they understood her, they gave a cheer. One of the groups tabling at the event, the Gator Gay-Straight Alliance, is having an event of its own this week. It has set up a toilet representing a bathroom in Turlington Plaza and a makeshift dorm in the Plaza of the Americas as a statement for equality, club member Carina Emery said.

4, ALLIGATOR M TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 Because of Petfinder.com Wandering pet found By HEATHER RAPP Alligator Contributing Writer Some Christmas gifts are worth waiting nine months for. Just ask Becky Bias. When Bias lost her dog last Christmas Eve, she immediately scoured her rural neighborhood in an off-road vehicle, plastered the area with fliers and searched local animal shelters. After months of searching for Mattie Lou with no results, Bias sought a new method: the Internet. "I just had this gut feeling that I needed to look one more time," she said. When the 24-year-old resident of Keystone Heights entered her canine's information into a search field Wednesday on Petfinder.com, a Web site that catalogues animals available for adoption, she finally had success. Mattie Lou, or Lou Lou, as Bias refers to her 11-year-old English springer spaniel, showed up on the Web site after coming to the Lake Area Animal Hospital in Melrose. Every Christmas, Bias' 5-yearold daughter and 3-year-old son stay with their father while she and Mattie Lou enjoy each other's company at home. Last year Bias, a UF employee, noticed a skin irritation on the dog's neck and removed her collar, her Becky Bias plays with her dog, Mattie Lou. The pair were reunited more than nine months after Mattie Lou went missing. only source of identification, before letting it out in the yard. When Bias returned to let her back inside, Mattie Lou was gone. An elderly couple found her in their yard about a mile down the road from Bias' house in January. The couple asked Jennifer Blackburn, a veterinarian at the Lake Area Animal Hospital, to put the dog to sleep because she was old and deaf, Blackburn said. Instead, Blackburn invited the couple to leave the dog in her care, against procedure. She couldn't explain why this dog was different. "I guess I have a soft spot in my heart for springer spaniels," Blackburn said. Mattie Lou came to the hospital infested with fleas, heart worms, ear and skin infections, and a scratch on her eye. After nursing her back to health, Blackburn listed her on Petfinder.com. "I had a lady calling me hysterically crying, saying that it was her dog," she said. Bias, a secretary for the UF Computing and Network Services' telecommunications department, discovered Mattie Lou's listing and photo while at work at 1 p.m. "From the time I saw her picture to the time they called me back was the longest two hours of my life," Bias said. While Bias was confident it was her dog, her co-workers were incredulous. "They were like, 'How do you know it's her?'" she said. "After 10 years with this animal, I know what her freckles look like. I know how she holds her head. I know the way she sits." Sure enough when Blackbum responded, Bias described her petas only an owner could, includingMattie Lou's three missing teeth and one "droopy nipple," Blackburn said cheerfully. When the vet called out the dog's name, her ears perked up in excitement. Bias raced from work to the anmal hospital at 3 p.m. "The owner and dog sat on the floor, and the dog was licking her face, and the owner was crying," Blackburn said, describing the reunion. "We all got tears in our eyes, the staff, because the owner was so happy, and the dog was so happy" Recalling the incident continues to bring joyous tears to Bias as well. "She was the prettiest thing I've seen in a long time," she said. Blackburn advises a pet owners to look into getting microchip tags for their dogs and cats. The computer chip, containing the owner's contact information, is small enough to fit into a hypodermic needle and is inserted beneath the skin.

RODRIGUEZ Alligator contributing Writer Gator Plunge kicked off the university's 50 Million Minutes of Service campaign Saturday with an estimated 200 volunteers donating their morning to community-service projects. The UF Center for Leadership and Service held the event, the largest single-day community service project of the school year. UF student, staff and faculty volunteers gathered at the Plaza of the Americas at 8 a.m. to participate in projects throughout Gainesville, including environmental cleanup, working with the elderly and disabled, and sorting donations for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Before leaving to the project sites, Student eBody President Joe Goldberg and UF Vice President for Student Affairs Patricia TellesIrvin spoke to the volunteers. "Very exciting to see so many of you out here," Goldberg said. "Community service is one of the most important things we do here at the university." Gator Plunge volunteers worked with organizations such as Keep Alachua County Beautiful, Habitat for Humanity and the Association for Retarded Citizens. "We are kicking off an incredible commitment," Telles-Irvin said. "You have decided to touch the lives of many in the community." The Volunteer Center of Alachua County will coordinate community efforts to match the university's 50 million minutes of service for a combined total of 100 million minutes of service during this year's campaign. Telles-Irvin said that as a survivor of Hurricane Andrew, her heart went out to the "We are kicking off an incredible commitment. You have decided to touch the lives of many in the community." Patricia Telles-Irvin UF vice president for Student Affairs victims of Hurricane Katrina and held a moment of silence for them. As part of Gator Plunge, a group of volunteers went to a storage facility to sort fooddrive donations and begin transporting goods collected by the center. In addition an estimated 100 volunteers collected money for the Gator Spare Change Drive on Saturday before the football game. Through the drive, volunteers have been collecting monetary donations around campus, at football games and student assemblies for the hurricane victims. The center has been working with the local chapter of the American Red Cross to get the donations to Hurricane Katrina evacuees in the area, said Vanessa Frisby, 21, center office manager and UF student. The drive's goal is to raise between $15,000 and $20,000 to be donated by the center to the Red Cross as "UF Student Donations to Hurricane Relief." There is no set goal for donations of food and other items to the hurricane relief effort, but Frisby said "they definitely had an overflowing office" full of goods. The center will hold both the food drive and the spare change drive until the end of September.

6, ALLIGATOR E TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 Editorial Wrong idea Universities can't balance minority scale L ook around campus. Does the brightness sting your eyes? Throughout Turlington Plaza, inside the Reitz Union and in every classroom, white kids conquer the crowd. Hispanics are almost 11 percent of the student body Blacks are about 7 percent. Asians are less than 7 percent. And the American Indians can't even make it up to half a percent. That's probably the fault of our white ancestors and their smallpox. But we know Florida is more diverse than that. Miami is basically Cuba. African Americans make up much more of our state than 7 percent. The question is: Should a university mimic the demographics of society? At the UF Board of Trustees meeting Friday, President Bernie Machen stressed the need to increase minority enrollment if the university is to obtain its goal of becoming a Top 10 public research institution. The Editorial Board argues that this isn't the university's job and doesn't have much to do with academics and research. It has to do with society's flaws as a whole. If not enough minorities apply, how are we to balance our enrollment? And if Florida's poorer residents, who are predominantly minorities, are getting poor education from kindergarten through high school, how does a university right that wrong? It doesn't. Nothing is fixed at this stage in the game. We'd argue that this is a problem cemented before universities even enter the picture. Primary and secondary schools are incredibly segregated. Poor neighborhoods get the worst teachers because the inure qualified teachers have the choice of a cushier job. Schools that have inferior FCAT grades receive less funding and support, and those schools tend to be in poor areas. If a minority student is the first in his or her family to have the option of college, help in applying for schools and scholarships is scarce. Counselors are usually overworked and useless. We know this situation doesn't apply to every minority student. We also know there are excellent minority students. These students are not denied access to any university because of-their race. In fact they're warmly welcomed. Universities fervently recruit them because they fill both requirements: They're good students, and they raise the minority percentage, which looks good for the university. But the percentage of qualified minority students is very different from the percentage of minorities. A university cannot right this wrong. A university is for a select group of people. Yes, that's right. A university, especially one that's headed for the Top 10, is not for everybody, public or not. Everyone gets into an elementary school, a middle school and a high school. That's where underprivileged minority students are wronged. UF does try to get to minority students early with its Alliance program, which prepares students in "struggling" high schools for college; It's not a university's job, but it's a good idea. In February, President Bush proposed to cut funding to Upward Bound, a college preparatory program that helps lowincome students get into college. Teachers and tutors in the program provide individual attention and additional education. This program is a step in the right direction. Cutting its funding hurts the entire education spectrum. But the answer is not for a university to solve. That shortchanges minorities and education alike. all eiganet or Mike Girnignani EDITOR Eva Kis MANAGING EDITOR Emily Yehle OPINIONS EDITOR Andrew Meyer, Torn Durrenberger EDITORIAL BOARD The Alligator encourages comments from readtors.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 N ALLIGATOR, 7 Gator slate also mixed up some districts "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" SLATING, from page 1 Every candidate on Gator's slate for District A, which includes four zip codes, is Greek. Josh Weiss, an Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity member, is one of them. And he thinks the party is on the right track. "I think we are doing a very good job of representing the entire student body," he said. "By and large everyone who comes out to slate with either party has the entire student body in mind." Weiss said members of the Greek community tend to be ambitious people and stick together. Gator Party spokesman Thomas Philpot said that members on his party's slate were chosen based on the "merits of their qualifications." "They are committed, and we are committed to make sure they serve you best," he said. "I think the focus this Fall should be, what will these candidates do for the students? At the end of the day, we are all UP students." Impact Party District A Senate candidate Ben Freeman said that SG isn't representative of every member of the Swamp. "It's very heavily Greek. It should be a little more representative. That is what our whole campaign is going to be," he said. Interfraternity Council President John Dicks was the only District F Senate candidate Gator had slated, but he had to be removed. A typographical error caused Dicks to be placed in the Student Government op enLi70 0itP@c ing for District F though he resides in District B, Goldberg said. "He probably wouldn't have ended up being on the slate anyway," he said. "He's clearly not a District F senator. That's obviously a mistake on our part. It doesn't make sense that he was put on as District F." But Dicks said he developed a cold last weekend and decided that the illness was caused by being too active. Souvenir Edition! More than 60,000 people will be coming to Gainesville during the weekend-long event. They will be looking for places to eat, sleep, celebrate and buy souvenirs. Get their attention by advertising in the Alligator. Dicks said he will not run for Senate this Fall but may reconsider the decision for the Spring 2006 election. Dicks added that he originally slated with Gator because he thought he had a good chance of winning. "I did it because Joe Goldberg is a friend of mine," he said. "I like what he's doing." Dicks met Goldberg on the second day of Phi Delta Theta's rush three years ago. "We've been friends ever since," he said. Philpot said if Dicks had become a senator, it would not have been a conflict of interest. Impact Party District D Senate candidate Seth Entin is the only Greek on the Impact Party slate. "I believe in online voting, better spending and an end to legacy positions," Entin said. "I like fighting for the underdog." Entin was Roberts's big brother in Zeta Beta Tau before Roberts left the fraternity. "I don't think politics really plays an issue with friends," he said.

14, ALLIGATOR U TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 Players say defeating caliber opponents is key SWAMP, from page 16 Swamp into his personal debut party, racking up 204 rushing yards. Of course, the Hurricanes were ranked No. 1, so it could have been an anomaly. No. 18 LSU proved otherwise a month later, destroying the Gators 36-7. Ever since, UF's home field advantage has all but disappeared. So was it Zook's fault and will Urban Meyer magically restore the Swamp luster, or are home losses to be expected? "Getting the Swamp back is the first thing that we really need to do," cornerback Dee Webb said. "We want to have an edge heie at home. We want to regain that momentum and swagger. We want opposing teams to come to the Swamp knowing that they are going to get beat." With Tennessee and Florida State both making trips to Gainesville this season, safety Jarvis Herring said this would be the perfect time for the Gators to reclaim the Swamp, but he admits it may take time. "That might take more than a season," Herring said. "The Swamp was a pretty scary place for a while. It'll be good this year, especially with the caliber of teams coming in." Just ask junior safety Nick Brooks how long it's been since the Swamp was-one of college football's most feared stadiums. "I don't remember," Brooks said. That's how long it's been. Meyer to wait until game time to announce kicker FOOTBALL ,from page 16 Volunteers personnel. "Is that the reason C.J. is here? Sure," Meyer joked. "No, the reason he's here is because he's a high-quality, high-character person and I kind of like people like that in the coaching profession." DEATH THREAT DISTRACTION: Side judge Bobby Moreau, who made the controversial personal foul call against Dallas Baker at the end of last year's Tennessee game, will not officiate this year's contest because of death threats, The Associated Press reported. Moreau was slated to work the game before SEC supervisor of officials Bobby Gaston decided it would be safer to send him to the Vanderbilt-Mississippi game. "The media would have exposed it, and the fans would have eaten him alive," Gaston said. "I just decided that was not a fair thing for him." Said Moreau: "I would like to be there, but Bobby Gaston is my boss. I understand. There are some Looney Toons out there." SPECIAL TEAMS WOES: Forget field goals; UF is worried about converting on extra points. Saturday, the Gators goofed on their third extra point of the season. Meyer will wait until game time to announce whether Chris Hetland or Eric Nappy will start. "I think we have some good kickers but I'm not sure we have a great one," Meyer said. "We better become great real fast because [of] the history of this [Tennessee] game -and I know last year what happened." *WRECEkE $20 T WIDAY & 6 0 THIS WEEK!

Still, Fulmer remains so unnerved by the possibility of C.J. revealing the Vols hand signals, that he suggested having multiple coaches simultaneously signal in plays from the sideline to confuse a potential army of orange-and-blue-clad Windtalkers. Suprisingly, Meyer seemed to consider such an operation preposterous, at least publicly. And when asked if his brother ever talked to him about ulmer's playbook, Chris giggled out a "no" through a poop-ingesting grin. The boy sure can't lie. Let's cut the crap fellas. We all know Fulmer's playbook has sprung a Leak. Just come out and say it. Even if it isn't true, at least you're getting into their heads. Such a conservative move is particularly suprising from Meyer, a coach who fired up players at Utah by plastering BYU logos over urinals. So speak up and start some controversy guys, unless you want to prove ESPN right.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 E ALLIGATOR, 15 FOOTBALL Gat.r wae p-toeful UT rush By ERIC ESTEBAN Alligator Staff Writer eesteban@aiigator.org Describing it as a freight train at full speed wouldn't do it justice, but for the better part of a decade, Tennessee running backs have made it look all too easy against the Gators. Since 1998 the victor has fluctuated between the two schools, but one constant has been the Volunteers' dedication of being known as Running Back-U. Shawn Bryson, Jamal Lewis, Travis Henry, Travis Stephens, Jabari Davis and Cedric Houston all left their cleat marks on the rivalry game throughout the years. Last year in Knoxville, it was the same story for UF, compliments of Houston. A relentless ground attack consumed time off of the clock, drained spirits and kept the chains on the move as the Gators lost a game in the waning seconds that was within their grasps. "That's who they are, and they take great pride in [running the ball]," Coach Urban Meyer said. "In the last 10 years, I don't think there has been a more successful team in the country with just wins and losses, so why change?"

On Monday, Coach Mary Wise said she will be sending a tape of Collymore's career-high 30-kill performance to the All-American committee. "We have never, since we've been here, had a player do what Jane Collymore did in game two," Wise said. "That tape is going directly to the committee. "Eleven kills -that's just not done.

Collymore also surpassed Ashley Mullis on UF's career-kills list, moving into eighth place in school history.

"I would be kidding myself if I didn't think after the match that I would like to have called a few of our ex-players to tell them, 'Okay, finally we got them,' and there were a few messages left on my machine as well," Wise said. ....

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2005 ALLIGATOR www.alligatorSports.org Gators looking to reclaim Swamp By ANDREW ABRAMSON Alligator Staff Writer aamramsaealigatrorg Days before Tennessee heads to town, Brandon Siler is awfully hungry. A few years ago, Siler's stomach wouldn't have been growling so loudly. Back then, a home game against Tennessee usually meant a "W" for the Gators. But in recent seasons, teams have managed to feast on the Gators in their own backyard, dessert and all. "The big boys are coming into our house trying to take our cookies, so we got to defend our cookies," Siler said. "We've got to defend the Swamp." In the heyday of UF football back in the 1990s, it would have been difficult to imagine that Tennessee could enter a game against the Gators with an opportunity to win three consecutive games at the Swamp. That will be the case on Saturday, when Tennessee attempts to bring the Urban Meyer honeymoon to a crashing halt and the Gators try to show the college football world that the Swamp is indeed the mpost brutal environment for an opposing team. "You want to take [the Swamp] back against a top team," Siler said. "That's how you take back the Swamp, by facing a top opponent and beating them. This is why you come to Florida, to play in a game like this. It's something I've been looking forward to all Tim Casey/ Alligator Staff For Dee Webb and the rest of UF's defense, re-establishing dominance in the Swamp is a must.

SEE SWAMP, PAGE 14 By LOUIS ANASTASIS Alligator Staff Writer Ianastasis@alligator.org Tennessee coach Phillip Fulner is really concerned about that Leak at UP. It's just not the one you're probably expecting him to lose sleep over. Nope, Fulmer isn't just scheming to stop quarterback Chris Leak. He's also zeroing in on C.J. Leak, Chris' older brother, who played at Tennessee and may be helping the Gators with a little inside information. "C.J., I'm sure, knows a lot about our of:'ense and about signals and our system, and that's certainly something we have to address," Fulmer said. C.J., who played as a two-way player. for Tennessee the previous two seasons, now works as an office aid for the University Athletic Association. At the Southeastern Conference Media Days, Meyer said lmer his responsibilities would revolve around paperwork in the office. Now, with conference supremacy on the line, C.J may be stuffing Meyer's envelopes with some pages of Fulmer's playbook. The coach is so concerned with Chris' brother that he will turn Tennessee's sidelines into a makeshift baseball dugout. Fulmer plans on simultaneously using two or three coaches and players to relay different sideline signals to confuse the Gators. "It can really be a distraction," Fulmer said. Meyer downplays all of this -to a degree. The Gators will use video, he said, to analyze Tennessee's schemes. C.J., however, will serve as a resource regarding SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 14 No Gameday, no problem tension viewers, ESPN would like to inform you that rather than stopping in Gainesville on Saturday in honor of this year's UFTennessee rivalry, its College Gameday program will come to you live from the National Lumberjack Pancake Eating Championships. Though the network recognizes the immense national attention the No. 6 Gators and the No. 5 Vols will capture this weekend with their CBS-televised rivalry, ESPN marketing analysts and executives decided not to break the network's policy of shameless selfpromotion, opting instead to 'cover the LPEC and all it's pageantry live from Darby, Mont.

Sorry to all you football fanatics of Gainesville, but you can stop stuffing your Phillip Fulmer effigies and quit stenciling your signs beckoning Lee Corso to perform oral massages to certain parts of your anatomy because College Gameday, in fact, will not be in Gainesville this weekend. Instead, the crew will travel north to Bean Town, the site of the epic ACC matchup between FSU and Boston College. But before you all embark on a coordinated barrage of nasty emails or cancel your Cox subscription, you must take Gameday's unexpected move for what it is -not a snub, but a compliment.
