Raymond Lindsey-Goldsborough was charged in the Third District Court with two counts of assault and one count of aggravated assault, which Vol. 116 No. 147 Stick it out is a third-degree felony. Lindsey-Goldsborough was charged after he abused his 17-year-old girlfriend and broke her collarbone earlier this month. According to the police report, witnesses saw the woman, whose name was not released, slap Lindsey-Goldsborough multiple times after seeing him with another woman. He then became upset, grabbed her hair and dragged her into Sage Point Building 814, where the witnesses lost sight. Lindsey-Goldsborough said he only "pushed" the woman when they were in the building, although she later had to be admitted to University Hospital with a broken collarbone. When U police first interviewed the girl, she admitted to having a verbal confrontation with Lindsey-Goldsborough, but said she had sustained a broken collarbone from a sling shot accident. She said she lost control and flung herself into a metal park bench. The girl later called dispatch to change her statement after talking to her mother and said that Lindsey- PHOTO COURTESY SALT LAKE COUNTY JAIL Raymond Lindsey-Goldsborough See A S S A U L T E D Page 3 LDS authority to address graduates 17 to award seven honorary degrees at ceremony Dustin Gardiner speak at the event.

SEE PAGE 7 FOR FULL PREVIEW Honors think tank tackles life-pace issue for students Natalie Hale The Daily Utah Chronicle Members of a group in the U Honors Program want students to question the pace of their lives and the effect it has on their quality of life. Over the past two semesters, the group of n students and two professors has dedicated time to exploring the meaning of "a good life" as opposed to "the good life." The group decided to examine the velocity of today's world and its effects on the quality of a person's life. During Fall Semester, the think LIfNNlE MAHLER/The Dnilv Utah The honors think-tank class brainstorms off-campus locations to publicize The Pace of Life Fair, which will feature lectures and panel discussions to encourage a more relaxed mindset. The fair will be held April 14 at the Salt Lake City Library. tank spent its time researching the meaning of happiness and other quality-of-life contributors. Kevin Kraus, a senior in economics and international studies, said the group found that many factors exist in contributing to people's well-being, but it is directly related to how they use their time. The more research the group conducted, the more it wanted to present its findings to the public. "There were a lot of ideas talked about," said Brett Barrus, a senior in consumer and communication studies. "We realized that we could encompass all of them if we • did a fair." The students have been organizing a fair that will feature panelists discussing the topics of working and commuting, heath and wellbeing and education and family issues. Each panel features members of local public sectors in an effort to provide the community with an examination of the speed of modern-life effects. The event will also feature John de Graff, an author and Seattle's national coordinator of Take Back Your Time Day, as a keynote speak- er. De Graff will be addressing the crowd regarding "America's Time Famine." Titled, "What's the rush?" the fair will take place April 14 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Salt Lake City Library, located at 200 E. 400 South. "We want to raise awareness that the pace of life and time issues are important and that they affect the quality of life," said Elizabeth Wilcox, a junior in English. "This is a springboard to make people question how the pace of their lives affects them." Members of the group found in exploring this subject that it caused self-reflection about their own lives. "This subject gets you to challenge how you live, the vacation time you take, your work and what makes you really happy," said Sally Planalp, a communication professor who helped to direct the class. "It's not same-old, same-old. It can really lead one to live differently." For more information about the fair, visit its Web site at www.pacefair.org, n.hale@ . chronicle.utah.edu |
