Film facilitates LU alcohol awareness By KELSEY LECK Sigma Chi Fraternity and Alpha Chi Omega Sorority teamed up to host “Twilight at Taylor,” an event at Taylor Gym full of exercise and healthy snacks. The event began Thursday, September 19 at 10 p.m., and ended Friday, September 20 at 1 a.m. The two Greek organizations collaborated with Lehigh After Dark to offer students late-night access to the gym, including the squash courts, basketball courts, climbing wall, exercise machines and two Zumba classes that were led by an instructor. “Running, Zumba, going to play squash; it’s a good alternative to the typical Thursday night,” Ko Yazaki, ’14, said. Nick Kleinert, ’15, the president of Sigma Chi Fraternity, explained that numerous students are discouraged by crowds that form in the gym during the day. Thus, the two chapters thought it important to offer a nighttime class for students who don’t have the time to go to the gym during regular hours. “The gym is one of the most popular buildings on campus. People of all ages come here for all reasons, whether to stay healthy or to have fun,” Kleinert said. “Our house and [Alpha Chi Omega sorority] identified By REBECCA FACTOR More than 80 students filled Wilbur Powerhouse for an informative lecture on 3-D printing, a groundbreaking technology Lehigh now has to offer. 3-D printing is a relatively new technology that can benefit almost anyone across every major. The event was sponsored by the Baker Institute of Entrepreneurship and was geared toward students interested in innovative creative technologies. “Wilbur Powerhouse is set to be the maker space at Lehigh,” said Lisa Getzler-Linn, administrative director for the Baker Institute. The room was filled mostly with first-year students, many who came to fill their 5x10 seminar requirement. “I thought this would be very interesting for my potential major,” said Julianne Kerwood, ’17. 3-D printing can be used for building things such as prosthetics, as well as cell and tissue engineering. Glenn Adams, a graduate student in the engineering school, presented the lecture to the students. He explained that although many people believe 3-D printing is only for engineers, it is actually a technology that can benefit people of many interests and majors. “Everybody can have a piece of this,” he said. Adams stressed that students from engineering to business to communications can utilize the several printers. By ANNA BOLD The Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs screened the documentary “HAZE” in Maginnes 206 Tuesday as part of National Hazing Prevention Week. The event, which was also incorporated into the 5x10 first-year student program, encouraged discussion about hazing and excessive drinking on college campuses. The documentary, produced by The Gordie Foundation of Dallas, Tex., follows the story of Gordie Bailey. A freshman at the University of Colorado at Boulder, Bailey died from an alcohol overdose as a result of hazing while pledging a fraternity. A condensed, 30-minute version of the documentary was shown. Numerous statistics concerning alcohol and alcohol-related injuries were cited in the documentary, as well as the manner in which alcohol is abused on college campuses. Each year there are approximately 1,700 deaths due to excessive drinking, and 700,000 injuries from alcohol abuse, according to the documentary. Fraternities, sororities and student-athlete clubs were cited as groups that presented the highest risk of hazing, though an on-campus survey indicated that other groups presented this risk as well. OFSA Assistant Directors Ashley Baudouin and Rebecca Davison posed questions intermittently to the audience, inquiring about the definition of hazing. During one break, Davison asked students if they knew what a single drink looked like, and provided examples with a Nalgene bottle. Students discussed binge drinking, high-risk drinking and how alcohol affects the brain. Furthermore, students considered when it is appropriate to call for help, and how to check for signs that a person is passed out rather than just asleep. See GYM Page 3 See HAZE Page 2 See 3-D Page 4
