Athletes respond
to Bryan incident
Continued from page I
Referring to the rumors, Bante
said, "This is a time where more
people notice the divide, but it is a
great opportunity to do something
about it."
An idea suggested by senior
Billie Pellerito was to implement a
"do-what-you-don't-week," a week
where all Guilford students can
try activities they normally would
not have time for. During such a
week, a Guilford basketball player
could try painting or sculpting,
and a theatre studies major could
play catch with a football.
Other members of the com
munity, including Head Football
Coach Kevin Kiesel and Bante, feel
the gap is artificial. "Athletes look
like everyone else," Bante said.
Kiesel trusts activities like the
closed forum and the Guilford ju
dicial system to help the healing
process.
Prior to the forum, Kiesel and
his players remained silent when
ever the Bryan incident was men
tioned.
Kiesel mentioned two reasons
for the lack of comments on the
incident: he wanted to protect the
judicial system of the college, and
he felt no need to grab the media's
attention.
"People today are very intel
ligent; they understand our news
today," Kiesel said. "President
Kent Chabotar did a great job say
ing we will go through the process
methodically."
The forums, Kiesel said, show
that all students care and that the
school is very important to the
entire student body - art major,
business major, soccer player, or
football player. Also according to
Kiesel, it is important for the com
munity as a whole to work for the
healing process.
"Once we step back and let the
community work," Kiesel said,
"this will all get back to normal."
