I. “There’s been a lot of press, which just made us think about it a lot more." said Bill Straub. a marketing senior and president of the chapter. “( )ne ofour main goals is to provide a safe, study-com ducive environment to live in. \Ve're by no means saying that our 3 I —year—old inenihers can‘t drink; they iust can’t do it in the house or on chapter grounds." The fraternity is among the first to voluntarily adopt an alcohol-free policy since the push by national fraterni— ty officers and university administrations after two alco— holirelated fraternity deaths during the fall semester. Last week the L'K chapter sent four delegates w Strauh. chapter athletics director Jay Tipton. political sci— ence sophomore l'iric (lustafson and architecture fresh‘ man Beniamin Simmons — to a symposium on alcohol— free housing at Memorial Hall. By mid—semester. Phi (lamina Delta tnight not he the only fraternity that drops the drink. National officers from the fraternity. along with those froin Sigma \u and Phi Delta Theta. had already planned to go alcohol—free hy]uly I. 2000. Btit as Strauh said, “The sooner we do it, the more benefit we'll get." Bill Martin, executive director of Phi (iamma Delta International who spoke at the symposium, said he was encouraged by the fraternity's speedy decision. "\Vhenei er a chapter decides to make that transition earlier than otir final date.“ he said, “that indicates to us the chapter recognizes that they can achieve some benefit." The policy will work to the fraternity's advantage during its spring rush this week. Strauh said, because some students cannot take bids because their parents won't let them. “\\'e‘re hoping that over time this will help us erase that (. inimu/ Home) stereotype." he said. How much rtish numbers fluctuate will he difficult to tell, Martin said, but students are out there who want to be part of a (ireek organiyation without having to drink. The UK chapter “will have a iiitich better opportunity to appeal to the students," Martin said. "There is a significant segment of student population who choose not consider fraternity involvement because of alcohol consumption.“ Dean of Students David Stockhaiii applauded the deci— sion, saying he sees positive long—term effects. “More than anything else, it says there are at least a growing number of national fraternities that believe this is the right way to go." Stockham said. “This would he very positive magnet for recruiting for this group. [low everything will play out in the immediate transition, my crystal hall is no better than anybody else's." In other news, Phi Sigma Kappa social fraternity's executive committee announced on Sunday it will make all (i‘) of its national and international chapters alcohol free hyjuly l, 2000. The fraternity's executive committee had started a vol— untary education program for its chapters to work toward hecotning alcol‘iol-free. “\Ve believe an environment free from alcohol and unlawful drugs is imperative." said Peter]. Nichols, presi— dent ofthe committee.

Something to CHEER about Cheerleaders capture fourth straight By Jill Erwin Senior Stuff U 'riter For those of you who dotiht that cheerleading is a highly competitive sport. take note ofthe follow- ing: The L'niversiry of Alabama squad sent various e-mail messages to LiK’s cheerleaders over the (Ihristmas break. bragging of their new stunts and telling tales of how they were going to wipe the floors with the three-time defending champion “'ildcats. .After the Universal Cheerleaders Association competition at \\'alt Disney \Vorld. L'K had the brag ing rights. The \Vildcats became the first squad to win four straight titles (no other team has even won three in a row) and capturing their eighth overall. and L'K gymnasts Brooke Davis and Dotig Stitheni set a record in winning the Division IA championship in the partner stunt competition. “I feel that as long as my squad hits what we go down there with. we by far set the standard,“ said second-year L'K cheerleading coach Saleem Habash. “Yeah, it feels good when other people want to try to talk something, and then we put it in their face." L'K faced an opponent other than an opposing school: its own complacency. “Before you wanted to win it because it was new." llaliash said. “Now it's something you're supposed to do vs. something you want to do." After winning for the ast three years, the group became somewhat ackadaisical in their approach to the competition. It took some mis- takes for the team to see what was necessary.

Knowing students living on campus have access to three meals a day alleviates parents’ concerns and those ofthe administration. “\Vhen parents send their chil- dren off to college, one of their biggest worries is that their son or daughter won’t be eating proper- ly." said (:arol Raitl, director of Food Services. Many students say it’s unfair if a student doesn‘t use the full 5675 during the cotrrse of a semester, it goes back into Food Services and is applied toward the department’s operating costs. UK can transfer $50 from the fall to spring semester. “I don't see why the money doesn‘t carry over to the next semester," said Shana (Iarr. a sec- ondary education sophomore. “lt inst doesn‘t seerii fair for them to take my money." “Food Services has art unwrit— ten contract with thc student body. ()ur part ofthe contract is to meet .md exceed student's expectations," Raitl. said. “and their side of the bargain is to pur- chase the Diners accounts so that we can continue to operate.“ “567; may seem like a lot to students, btrt in fact L'K has one of the cheapest meal plans avail- able when compared to other benchmark universities." Raitz said. According to a '97-'98 bench— mark comparison of proposed dining rates cortipiled by Food Services, Ohio State L'niversity charges students 5159‘) and l’ur~ due charges $2,554. At the L'nivcrsity of Ten- nessee-Knoxville, meal plans are only mandatory in five out of nine dorms. The students in these dorms pay $90] a semester. “The students in the five newest dorms are required to btry the meal plans as part of a debt reduction program," Alaplcs, assistant to the Vice (Ihancellor for Administration and Staff. ”This program is aimed said _lcff at reducing the debt incurred when building the dorms." 'l‘he dorms were built iii the late l‘)()(ls, and the meal plan poll; cy is expected to continue for lll more years, Maples said. ln WW) the L'niversity of Alabama began requiring every enrolled student to btry a $200 meal plan. The students protested because at the end ofthe semester. the unused balance on the meal plan reverted back to the food ser‘ vice program. Four months after the policy went into effect, the policy was reversed and the leftover balance became fully refundable at the end ofthe semester. ' “At first the students were fruv trated because they had no choice about whether or not they actually wanted to buy a meal plan," said _lan Logan, a payroll consultant iii the Food Services office at Alaba- ma. “Now the students are seeing how convenient it is to have the money on their meal card," she said. “and there are few students who have tnoncy left on their cards at the end ofthe semester."
