Hoping for the Grade Studying is an important part of any college student ' s life. Students can be found all around UGA ' s campus studying for their classes. Whether it is inside Tate Center or outside in a tree, at any time of the day there are people reading their notes or books. Biology, Chemistry, and Accounting are just a few of the classes that students spend hours on. Students of all ages, from freshmen to older students, can be seen cramming at the last minute foi an upcoming test, or on the rare occasion trying to get ahead in their classes. Since the instatement of the HOPE Scholarship, students have worked harder to stay ahead and keep their GPAs high enough to keep HOPE. More and more students are coming to UGA due to HOPE, and as this continues to occur students must work harder foi ' the 3.0 GPA that must be kept each semester. Because of this, students will try during their spare time to go to the library or some other quiet corner and study. The studying has paid off, as UGA ' s overall GPA has risen steadily j the past few years. Many students earn this higher GPA with the help of free tutors provided by the University Whatever it takes, people will do what they can for the grade they are looking for. 26 Features

Hotdogs and Bulldogs There is no other experience like gameday at UGA. At a school where the students and alumni bleed red and black and football is followed with religious fervor, gameday is a hallowed event. An integral part of every true bulldog fan ' s gameday ritual is the art of tailgating. Let there be not doubt, tailgating in Athens is definitely an art worthy of appreciation. The rabid bulldog fans arise early, foregoing hours of precious sleep, to partake in the pregame festivities known as tailgating. The RV ' s and campers sprawled across campus, the music blaring, and the hotdogs gr illin g are just a few of the sights, sounds, and smells associated with a ibrant day leading up to kickoff. Tailgating allows for fans and akmini alike to come together in a sense of camaraderie to cheer on their beloved Dawgs. Through thick and thin, bad or good, rain or shine, there are always die-hard tailgaters around the Univer- sity. As it has been throughout the ages, tailgating will forever remain synonymous with UGA football. 1 1 ■ i=« - fT— 1 i 5a - RMnBALlWEBOBB i!r-i ■:.vi: :: : r:: :;,■ Prtfe 4!
