Students taking the Freedom

will present “60 Minutes of Free-
dom” today from 11 a.m. until
noon in the Spruill Ballroom.
The course, a seminar taught
by Associate Professor of Commu-
nication Brian Carroll, focuses on
the role of the First Amendment
in law, culture and society. The
event will do the same through
theater, music, multimedia and a
series of six-minute presentations
on controversial topics.
The goal, Carroll said, is not
only to inform about free speech
but also to put it into practice.

Private institutions: the world of selectivity

Berry College has come far in
efforts to diversify the student
body. However, Berry as well as
many other private schools are
against the stereotype of elitism
that is often placed on private
institutions. Although Berry has
taken strides in providing aid
to many low-income students,
there are several factors that
contribute to the overall air of
selectivity.
The foundation of higher

private school. These schools
may say lowering standards
would ruin all of the progress
Berry has made in the past
century. What started off as an
industrial school has evolved
into an esteemed four year col-
lege. Many would ask: do we
really want to change that? In
contrast to this line of think-
ing, many students would say
Berry is simply not as impres-
sive or prestigious as it may
seem. According to College 411
the average unweighted GPA is
3.42. The average SAT score is

families who based acceptance
on both money and family lin-
eage. Usually only the rich could
send their children to school. It
wasn’t until much later that a
public school came into being.
Even after public schools were
created, there came segregation.
It seemed as if the school system
had obstacle after obstacle, keep-
ing many worthy children void
of education and knowledge.
Berry came into existence
as a boy’s industrial school in
1902, which led to a girl’s school
in 1909, a junior college in 1926
and a senior college just a few
years later. Martha Berry sought
to provide impoverished and

cation. While the principles of
Martha Berry have persevered
as a guideline, it has diminished
as time has progressed.
Independent schools have
the ability to pick and choose
different students based on their
criteria. While many schools
have moved away from social
and economical discrimination,
the selectivity private schools
administer moves them towards
a more exclusive student body
and one that is anything but
diverse.

605 math, 598 reading and 560
writing with 19 as the average
ACT score. These scores by no
means are meant to be looked
at in a negative light. However,
when compared to many other
private institutions, Berry’s
average scores fall below the
line.
The thought of a prestigious
college may vary from person
to person. Nonetheless, selec-
tivity is often based on GPAs,
SAT scores and similar criteria.
Therefore, if Berry undoubtedly
has a lower average compared
to other schools, why is it con-
tinually considered to be more
selective?
Berry is considered a “good
school,” but is it really hard to
get into? U.S. News and World
Report states that Berry is “more
selective” and has a 70.4 percent
acceptance rate compared with
private Georgia colleges Agnes
Scott (47.9 percent) and Spelman
(35.2 percent).
The real question seems to
be what is selectivity and what
determines it? While these sta-
tistics and facts can give hard
facts on Berry standards, it can-
not show where Berry is headed.
While lowering selectivity may
bring more diversity to the stu-
dent body, it seems that Berry
can’t have both worlds. Ideally,
colleges may like the idea of
integrating prestige with higher
acceptance. However, this is
not reality, and there has to be a
trade-off.

myself increasingly thankful for
the stack of tattered, rain-dam-
aged maps I have acquired over
the years. Sure, the GPS is con-
venient. For non-Atlantans like
myself, a GPS is great when we
can never remember whether to
go East or West on I-285.
But sometimes we might rely
on the guiding voice too much.
The infernal guiding Virgil, whom
we name Claire, or Suzy, or Chad-
wick, commands us, from a choice
of seven different languages, to
turn right, turn left, or make a legal
U-Turn at our next opportunity.
But when we are so set on
looking toward the “next” oppor-
tunity, we often lose sight of the
other opportunities down way-
ward paths. As college students
we tend to think of ourselves as
takers of the road less traveled,
trailblazing our own individual
highways, meeting challenges
eye to eye, asserting, not our par-
ents’ or professors’ but our own
opinions.
Entering an address electroni-
cally and making a beeline straight
for it sounds faintly cowardly.
With the dawn of the GPS, we
may forget that we don’t spend
near enough time opening the
atlas and absorbing maps—high-

routes, owning them with color-
coded scribbles in the oceanic mar-
gins, circling the must-see sights.
Hunching over the map domain,
half the fun is plotting out where
to go and imagining how to get
there even if the imagined and the
planned is far different from the
end result.
I keep my scribbled maps
around in part because they
remind me of that end result. The
actual execution of “the plan” just
creates more “in the moment”
scribbles veering off into the thin-
nest of thin strands of our spider
web world. Each adventure down
a path less taken is indeed a plan
deferred, but a deferment I rarely
regret.
Where a GPS tempts us to stay
locked in a tighter zoom setting,
unfolding a map we can touch,
carry, write and spill ketchup on
offers a broader understanding
of potential, limitless and global.
Their tangibility makes them arti-
facts of experience. They become
nearly living record keepers with
their tattered edges, city scents,
and water-stained ink blending.
They are reminders that we can
take a piece of the unfamiliar and
make it ours.

is it just a nostalgic, ketchup-
splotched stack of the past I can’t
let go. Maps instead remind me to
value the energy of the meticulous
planning behind every opening of
the front door and each adven-
WXUH·V ÀUVW VWHS RXW LQWR WKH ZLGH
world. They remind me to laugh
at myself because, however excit-
ing plans were on paper, I always
found different paths to test.
Maps are therefore my analog of
both the imagined journeys and
the real ones—each thrilling in its
own ways.
We could dwell on the incon-
sistencies in what we plan versus
what we actually execute, but my
maps and I regret neither expedi-
tion into the unknown. Instead
they remind me to zoom out and
see the global potential of oppor-
tunity and possibility.
As an added bonus, with my
maps I can be my own Virgil.
And make illegal U-turns if I so
choose.

Tanning tax is ‘pointless, ridiculous’
TRISTAN HARRISON
Asst. Entertainment Editor
On March 21, 2010, the United States
ÀQDOO\IHOWWKH´FKDQJHµ2EDPDSURP-
ised to make when the health care bill
was passed. The 902-page bill promised
a brighter future for all Americans and
sparked relief and joy in the unhealthy
hearts of many. All across the country
however, tanning salons felt their U.V
lights dim as the shadow of a little-
known tax swooped down upon them.
Hidden among many other more
publicized revisions lay the tanning
tax. Beginning July 1, 2010, the govern-
ment will start taxing all indoor tan-
ning sessions by 10 percent. According
to ABC, the tanning tax was added to
replace the “botax” on botox injections
that was previously suggested. The tax
is supposed to raise around 2.7 billion
dollars over the next 10 years to help
pay for the $940 billion health care bill.
The tanning industry is larger and
more important than it seems. There
are more than 18,000 tanning salons
across the country, many of them pri-
vately owned, and more than 1 million
people visit the salons to tan each day.
Apart from encouraging entrepreneur-
ship, these salons provide many part
time no-degree-required jobs to young
adults.
Revel in unique femininity
LAUREN JONES
Asst. Features Editor
Could it be possible that my femi-
nism is in question? I never thought
this would happen. Where did I go
wrong?
I have donated clothes, canned food,
medicine and feminine products to
women’s shelters. I have performed in
The Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler.
I have written several feminist papers
and have taken two women’s stud-
ies courses. I might pursue a minor in
women’s studies. I am an advocate for
equal rights for not only women, but
all genders, sexualities, races, religions
and the list goes on. I have spoken out
against domestic violence, sexual vio-
lence and basically violence against
women in general. But something hap-
pened very recently in my English 221
class. My professor wrote this quote on
the board.
“I absolutely cannot imagine what it
would be like to be a woman in a non-
patriarchal society. At moments I have
this little glimmer of it. When I’m in a
group of women, where I have a sense
RIUHDOHQHUJ\ÁRZLQJDQGRISRZHULQ
the best sense--not power of domina-
tion, but just access to sources--I have
some sense of what that could be like.
But it’s very rare that I can imagine
even that.”
Judith McDaniel said this in 1978.
My professor asked my class if we could
apply this quote to now or just the late
1970s. I said we could apply it to now
because I have often gathered among
my women friends and tried to imag-
ine this. I told my professor I imagined
OPINIONS
The tanning tax is a ridiculous and
pointless attempt by the American
government to cover its monetary
negligence and excessive spending
in conjunction with the recent health
care bill. If you’ve ever heard the term
C.Y.A., you know exactly what I mean.
I am one of the many (mostly female)
Americans who would like to enjoy
an occasional tanning session with-
out a nagging 10 percent tax attached.
Proponents of the tanning tax argue
that the risk of cancer is enough rea-
son alone. I totally and completely
agree and understand that excessive
indoor tanning and sun exposure can
contribute or possibly even cause can-
cer. Unfortunately, so can unprotected
sex, obesity, pollution, lack of exercise,
high fat diets, some medicines, chemi-
cals, alcohol, environmental pollution,
tobacco and even genetics. There are
endless causes of cancer waiting in the
wings to attack us all. Sadly it seems
that anything relaxing or enjoyable can
be a potential health threat if used in
excess. Thus, moderation, not taxation
is and should be the key when it comes
to tanning and taxes.
It’s is not the government’s place
to babysit the American citizens or to
patrol them with taxes intended to gen-
erate money under the front of concern.
It is none of “Uncle Sam’s” business if I,
as a grown, mature woman would like
to indulge in a few minutes of ultravio-
let light once in a while. Tanning beds
are not all bad either. An article posted
a “cheesy” world where everything
was harmonious, a kind of utopia. He
asked me why the notion of that was
cheesy. Because I was sleep deprived
and needed about three more cups of
coffee, I started babbling about that
Coca-Cola commercial, “I’d to teach
the world to sing in perfect harmony,
I’d live to buy the world a Coke…” you
remember the one. It was awful.
Then I began to wonder why that
would be “cheesy?” I have fancied
myself a feminist for a while. Does this
mean I am less of one?
What about the music I listen to? Ani
DiFranco is my all-time favorite artist
and an avid feminist. She has been fea-
tured in Ms. Magazine on several occa-
sions and has even spoken publicly
against nuclear power. And as much
as I love, love, love Ani DiFranco, I just
cannot dance like I would on a Satur-
day night to her song. “32 Flavors.”
Sorry, girl.
I bought a CD recently. Yes, a CD, I
am old school. I bought Ke$ha’s album,
“Animal.” So sue me! Yes, her lyrics are
risqué and sometimes demeaning.
For example, in “Tik Tok,”
Ke$ha said ”Before I leave, [I]
brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack
’cause when I leave for the night I ain’t
comin’ back…”
Ok, who brushes their teeth with
liquor? Do not do that, it is danger-
ous and I would venture to say it has
an adverse affect. And, I like to go
out… and come home safely, thank
you. But I love this song. I know her
voice is electronic and I know it pro-
motes dangerous behavior. If I had a
child, a daughter under the age of 17, I
would feel nervous about her listening
to this. But I am a 21-year-old woman.
Because of the women’s studies classes
I have taken, I am aware of the negative
impact of this song. I know better and I

that tanning in moderation can not only
drastically improve an individual’s self
esteem but can aid in the production
of both melanin and vitamin D, two
important factors in obtaining proper
and healthy body functions.
I think of the 15 or so minutes I
spend in the tanning bed as “me” time.

What’s next? A seven dollar “fat tax” on Brian Carroll

keys to the 2010 season are centered around Rome’s
strong pitching staff; if the team can continue playing
good defense and getting clutch hits, look for them to
have a strong season and be a major playoff threat.

New conference offers post-season substitutes

CAMERON CARTER
Staff Writer
Athletic director Todd Brooks has submitted a proposal
to join the United States Collegiate Athletic Association
(USCAA).
The USCAA will give Berry’s teams a chance to play
for a championship and will compete against several other
schools across the country.
The switch from NAIA to NCAA’s Division III
has changed Berry’s athletics for the next few years. Berry
cannot offer athletic scholarships to players and teams par-
ticipate in post-season or compete for championships.
“The USCAA is much easier to qualify for. In other
words, its power ranks your schedule against others so you
necessarily don’t have to play all of them [other schools],”
Brooks said.
Teams will qualify for tournaments based on their
power rankings at the end of the season. The USCAA does
not offer post-season play to all 18 sports that Berry will be
offering next year, but there will be other opportunities for
those sports to partake in. The conference also offers ath-
letic awards such as Player of the Week and All-American
awards.
“The negative is the fact that it doesn’t provide opportu-
nities for all 18 sports, it provides for men’s and women’s
cross country, men’s and women’s soccer, volleyball, bas-
ketball men and women’s, baseball, softball, and men’s
golf. It doesn’t provide for women’s golf. It doesn’t pro-
vide for men and women’s tennis. It doesn’t provide for
men’s and women’s swimming or men’s and women’s
lacrosse. So that’s our dilemma,” Brooks said.
Mika Robinson, volleyball head coach, proposed
the idea to join the USCAA. She said she looked into host-
ing a post-season tournament with other schools that were
in the same situation as Berry; ineligible for post-season
competition. A potential participant in the tournament
would not compete, because they were already part of the
USCAA.
Robinson said the conference “sparked her interest”
and led her to do some research into the conference.
Both Brooks and Robinson said they believe this con-

athletes. Brooks said during the last week of the season,
the practices were not as productive due to the abrupt end
to the season without post-season play.
As a substitute for post-season play, the women’s vol-
leyball team traveled to Nicaragua during spring break to
compete in a tournament. Brooks stated that “it is still not
same.” The baseball team and men’s basketball team also
competed in California.
Claire Scott, sophomore volleyball player, said
that a season without a post-season puts too much empha-
sis on the “little bumps in the road”, but a post-season gives
you an end goal and more perspective. She said she was
very disappointed in not having a post-season this year,
but she enjoyed traveling to Nicaragua.
Josh Bracken, sophomore basketball player, said
that when a season starts to go down hill a team can rally
to make a push into the post-season. He said that any-
body who plays sports wants to win a championship, and
the season might have turned out differently if there was
a post-season. He said he is looking forward to possibly
joining the USCAA because it gives teams motivation to
get through a season if things are going rough.
