Faculty would continue to use Viking Web for many functions of the
course, and a committee is currently looking at other programs, chief
information officer Penny Evans-Plants said.
Various areas [on campus] have lecture capture ability. We have that in
the new sandbox in the library, Evans-Plants said. But we dont have a
campus-wide system for managing lecture capture, and of course we dont
have any sort of video management system now.
Evans-Plants said a decision about the specific programs to be used will
be made next semester.
Some faculty members will live stream their lectures, while others will
prerecord video clips for students to view.
Evans-Plants said programs will be available for either option, as well
as online chat programs for students to have discussions or ask professors
questions.
Professor of psychology Alan Hughes, who will be teaching Introduction
to Psychology over the summer, said he plans to utilize this technology to
facilitate class discussion.
There will be assigned readings where of course students will have to
read chapters, but I plan to assign times where we all would be online doing
conference chats about the material, he said. I can pose questions and have

on campus.
An assaults an assault, whether its in the books
or not, she said.
She was also confused about the lack of notification
about incidents on campus in the last year.
Regardless of where you are, it happens. It happens
here. It happens at colleges all across the world, she
said. We cant kid ourselves into thinking its not
(happening) here.
Culpepper agrees that colleges should be more
proactive and transparent.
I would like there to be more of an emphasis on
prosecuting the perpetrator and more of an emphasis
on taking this issue seriously, so not just saying okay,
this is something, but saying this is whats happening,
and were going to do something about it.
The problem of repeat offenders also comes into
question, Gheesling said.
A White House report stated that 7 percent of college
men admitted to committing rape or attempted rape,
and 63 percent of these men admitted to committing
multiple offenses, averaging six rapes each.
Lindsey Taylor, assistant dean of students for
Residence Life, talked about following up with the
parties involved.
What we do not do is take great lengths to pursue
students year after year, she said. Every year, Im not
going to contact those students and ask how theyre
feeling and where they want to live, so it does require
the student to step out in some ways because Im
not going to hover and make the student re-live (the
incident).
Conradsen and Gheesling would like to see more
support offered on campus. They both talked about the
benefits of having a sexual assault center on campus.
Sophomore Daniel Boddie too would like to see an
open conversation on campus and a change in culture.
Just because this doesnt happen to you, doesnt
mean its not happening, he said. Just because its not
being talked about doesnt mean it shouldnt be talked
about. Just because somethings wrong with society
doesnt mean its always going to be that way.

struggle to follow directions. Predominantly hyperactiveimpulsive individuals tend to have difficulties staying still
for long periods of time, being patient and doing tasks
quietly. Combined hyperactive-impulsive and inattentive
individuals will exhibit symptoms of both inattention and
hyperactive-impulsivity.
A lot of the individuals who do not have as many
issues with hyperactivity go undiagnosed through their
school years because they dont have the behavioral
issues that accompany the hyperactivity and they develop
other compensatory skills to get through. Often these
skills are enough to get them through elementary, middle
and high school, but when they get to college, their focus
issues become more problematic.
These are not people seeking stimulants to sell on
the streets. These are adults who are seeking help so that
they can learn to cope with their issues and continue to
function in society. It is just as possible to treat ADHD as
it is to treat any other illness, mental or otherwise.
Neither they nor their parents deserve the ridicule
and stigma that much of the U.S. places on ADHD
and other psychiatric disorders. The stigma that our
society places on ADHD is leading parents not to get
their children assessed. It also keeps adults from getting
themselves assessed for fear of judgment. Without
assessment and treatment, these individuals cannot
perform as well as they might if they were receiving
proper treatment.
Children with ADHD are already more likely to have
trouble relating to their peers.

In October, a truckload of
packages from the United States
Tennis Association (USTA) arrived
at the Rome Floyd Tennis Center.
The tennis rackets inside the boxes
will soon be in the hands of many
of the elementary school children in
the Rome area.
Local tennis enthusiasts are
working hard to grow the sport in
the Rome community before the
Tennis Center of Georgia (TCG)
opens. With the construction of
the 74-court facility likely to
commence in the first quarter of
2015, Berry College administrators
are also now discussing the ways the
facility could offer work experience
opportunities for students at Berry.
Since tournaments will only
occupy a portion of the facilitys
open hours, tennis professionals in
Rome see a strong, local interest in
tennis as crucial to the success of
the TCG, according to David Elmer,
assistant professor of kinesiology at
Berry.
Cristian Lopez, founder and
co-owner
of
Rome
Tennis
Management (RTM), is collaborating
with Romes elementary schools to
organize after-school tennis programs
for students. He is also in discussion
with the Boys and Girls Club to add
tennis to their curriculum.
The communitys going to
have to work together because
theres not enough people playing
tennis, Lopez said. My goal is
to be the company that grew the
sport, that made it happen. Theres
so much more to do than just the
tournaments.
Lopez and his associates also
want to create tennis programs for
