Hall,“providesacombinationof services,coursesandsupportforstudents who come with back-grounds ranging from those of academic distinction to those

who come from circumstancesof financialandeducationaldis-advantage,” according to the re-dedicationevent’sprogram.Second Deputy Mayor Eileen

causeasanelectedofficial,Iwashonored to be standing in theshoesof CoraP.Maloney,”Peo-ples-Stokes said. “And, two, it’simportant for the university to

rededicate itself to the missionof theCoraP.MaloneyCollege.”From 1945-59, Maloney, who

died in 1961 at the age of 56,spent her time in the Buffalocommunityasanactivist.She was active in numerous

area initiatives, including theCommunityChest,BuffaloPhil-harmonic Orchestra and theAmericanCancer andAmericanHeartassociations.In 1957, Maloney was sworn

in as a committeewoman in theSixth District of the 13th ward

and also made history in thesameyearbeingelectedasBuffa-lo’sfirst councilwoman, thefirstdemocrat to ever be elected intheMasten district and the firstAfrican-American to be electedtothedistrictin20years.In 1976, UB chartered the

CPMC in honor of Maloney tocreate programs tohelp addresstheneedsof UBstudentsof col-or and residents of the City of Buffalo.Theprogram creates the con-

nection for non-tradition-al students to enter a universi-tythroughthehelpof academicsupport and faculty mentor re-searchexperiences.“Itpleasesmethatchildrenare

CPMC harnesses help studentsexperience academics from acommunityperspective.The college also helps bridge

the community and UB, offer-ing internships and partnershipswithlocalorganizations.“I had a scope: I started off

It is virtually a given that partof the thrill some students de-rive from the college partyingscene is a sense of danger. Buttoo often the dangerous practic-esthataccompanypartyingmani-festintodisaster.Andwhenpeo-pleareimpacteddirectlybystarkconsequences,thedangernolon-gerseemslikeathrill;itbecomesa regrettable remembrance of ayouthfulrecreationgoneawry.Withthisstillbeinganewaca-

demicyearandtherebeingplen-tyof newstudentsattheschool,it is essential to review what itmeanstogooutaroundUBandwhatisnecessaryforsafety.Many students at UB like to

drink and party. And there isnothing wrong with that. Thereisnotenoughawareness,howev-er, of the potential ramificationsof all that could gowrong frombingedrinkingingeneralandgo-ing out around South Campusspecifically.Binge drinking is widespread

amongst universities in Ameri-ca. Forty percent of U.S. collegestudents have engaged in bingedrinking in the past two weeks,according to the National Insti-tute of Alcoholism and AlcoholAbuse.

Thisisdangerous.Bingedrink-ingconsistsof consumingfiveormoredrinksinarowformenandfourormore in a row forwom-en,accordingtotheUniversityof RochesterMedicalCenter.Studentsdo this all the time–

with the goal of drinking to getdrunk.Itisalsoimportanttonotethatfourorfivedrinksinarowisamodest night out for some of ourpeers.Peoplearemoresusceptible to

injury when they reach a certainlevel of intoxication.The effectsof drinking include: dizziness,loss of balance, vomiting, im-pairedjudgmentandalcoholpoi-soning,whichcanbedeadly.Excessive drinking can cause

behavioralproblems,whichmakepeople prone to violence andmorewilling to engage in sexualactivitywithpartners theyother-wisewouldhavepreferredtostayclear of.College students shouldcertainlybeawarethatpromiscu-ous conduct while being inebri-atedmakesonemore likelytotocontractasexuallytransmittedin-fection.Andyoudon’twantoneof those.Not tomention you also sub-

But one of the biggest risksis dying of alcohol poisoning.Whena largeamountof alcoholis consumed in a short span of time,thebodyisnotequippedtoprocessitquicklyenough.Thisresults inahighbloodal-

coholcontent(BAC)level.WeallknowaBACof .8percentisthelegal limit for driving, but highconsumption levels of alcoholcancauseyoumorethanjustlegalissues.Having an extremely highBAC can cause your central ner-voussystemtoweaken–youcanlose consciousness, have respira-toryfailureanddie.Andeveryyear,peoplediebe-

emphasized to some students isthatyouhavetobecarefularoundSouth Campus – especially at

night.BeingintheHeightswhileintoxicated after binge drinkingmakesyouevenmoresusceptibleto being a victim of crime. Youbecomeexactlywhotheperpetra-torsarelookingfor–adrunkandobliviouscollegekid.We cannot allow a pervasive

Residents of Mar-shallIslandslivewiththeimpactsof somethingmanychoosetoig-nore.Their testimony and the testi-

living in a global economy inwhich competition is tough andhealthy,butwhatalsocan’tbeig-nored is the need for nations tocome together on this very im-portantissue.Marshall Islands’ testimony

event of BuffaloDeaf Aware-ness week, held in the court-yardneartheAppleStoreattheWalden Galleria. Deaf AdultServices of Buffalo and theBuffalo deaf community, in-cluding UB’s American SignLanguage (ASL) club, gath-ered tomark thebeginningof aweek-longcelebrationof deaf cultureandcommunity.AsIapproachedthegroupof

questionwehadpracticedoverand over in class, a questionI felt I could sign pretty well:What’s your favorite color? Iprayed I wouldn’t need to re-

sorttoaskingmynewacquain-tances whether they liked blueorpurple.Though I was terrified I

wouldn’t be able to carry on aconversation beyond spellingmyname, I swallowed the ballof fear inmy throat. I took adeep breath, walked up to thetableandwavedhello.Atfirst Iwasembarrassed. I

didn’tknowsomeof the signsto ask or how to answer basicquestions, such as “How areyou?” I felt like I kept inject-ing awkward pauses into theconversation. But every per-sonIintroducedmyself towasvery understanding. Theywerewelcoming and accommodat-ing and slowed down and re-peated themselves when Isigned that Ididn’tunderstandor didn’t catch what they hadsigned. Three fellow ASL students

AARON MANSFIELDeditor iN CHieF

Jeff Quinn remembers thefirst time he walked into St.Francis High School to meetAdamRedden.Redden told him, “Coach,

you’re apassionate, intenseguy.SoamI.”Ask UConn after Saturday’s

game – “passionate” and “in-tense” are vast understatementsto describe Redden. Buffalowon,41-12,thankslargelytothesenior playing a hybrid safety/linebackerposition.He told me in August that

hehadworkedmostduring thesummer on controlling his at-titude. I was confused. Usuallyguyssaytheyhaveworkedmoston something like “strength”or “speed.” Controlling his at-titude? What exactly does thatmean?Ifoundoutearlythisyearthat

Redden has a mean streak thatwould make Lawrence Taylorblush.Seeacoupleplayersmix-ingituponthefieldafteraplayis over? It’s almost a guaranteethatReddenisinvolved.“That’s what you love about

players that play with that kindof passion, that intensity, thatmental toughness,” Quinn said.“Hehasit.”Quinnwasquicktopointout

in his post-game press confer-ence that it was Redden’s sackand forced fumble, which healsorecovered,onUConn’sfirst

was his second straight domi-nantgame,afterhaving17tack-lesagainstStonyBrookSept.14.Redden made what would

den is planning on getting hiswingsatKelly’sKornerinBuffa-lo.Mack cutshair, too, butRed-

den isn’tbashful inclaiminghistitle as the best barber on theteam.When he attended local St.

He decided toputhisshavingskillstonewuse,andhesaidhenowcutsaround25-30headsperweek,includingthoseof coaches.Funny:theguywiththemad-

inthethirdquarter,whenCort-neyLesterpickedoff apassandRedden absolutely leveled Foxxontheensuingrunback.The hit was worthy

of SportsCenter’s Top Plays.Reddenwas called forunneces-sary roughness on what lookedtobeacleanblock–itwasjustthatcrazyof acollision.“I take pride in those hits,”

Redden said. “I take a lot of prideinthat.”He said he wasn’t trying to

hurt Foxx, who stayed on thefieldforaminuteashewasex-
