CARLOS DUNLAP DUI: ARRESTED GATOR CHARGED WITH DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE
(The Huffington Post)

The newest arrest of defensive back Carlos Dunlap is the newest edition to the slowly growing collection of influential Gators falling into the trap of driving while intoxicated. Now, before I get attacked with cries of "People are human, we make mistakes!," take heed. The rapidly growing numbers of people who are supposed to be role models obviously not learning from each other's misfortunes and bad judgement. Dunlap has let us down as a college community when we need him the most -- the week before the SEC championship game against Alabama, a game that means a lot not only to Gator fans, but to the team itself. Kristin Gillis, the supposed pride of the UF Panhellenic Council, and a UF faculty member have all recently been charged with DUIs in the past month or so. These are figures that we as a college community hold in high regard and I feel that they are not doing their job in living up to the high standards set up for them. Sure, they're human, but they're humans who have taken on the responsibility as a sorority and homecoming figure, star athlete, and faculty member to set an example for UF students.
