Vanderbilt University is issuing sanctions for alleged hazing. The university says 2 of its women's athletic teams were involved in separate hazing incidents, and will miss competitions as a result. This case involves the women's tennis and lacrosse teams. According to the university, members admitted taking part in hazing. Vanderbilt issued a statement saying that hazing is dangerous and violates university and Athletic Department policy, and will not be tolerated. All but one member of the tennis and lacrosse teams admitted taking part in the hazing. We asked students what they think about allegations of hazing on campus. The University of Tennessee recently made headlines after a student was hospitalized after being given an alcohol enema. The Phi Kappa Alpha fraternity has been suspended for 30 days pending further action.

Bonnaroo and then what? More events could follow
May 20, 2013 12:33 GMT
MANCHESTER, Tenn. (AP) -- The former farm where the Bonnaroo music festival is held may play host to other events as well.
The partnership that puts on the annual music and arts festival in Manchester has steadily upgraded the site, adding a dozen water wells and permanent electrical power.
Festival partner Rick Farman told The Tennessean (http://tnne.ws/14nuEF5 ) his group is in active discussion with a lot of groups. The Great American Mud Run will be held at the site on July 27 and is expected to draw more than 5,000 participants.
Coffee County Mayor David Pennington said he's curious to see where such a plan could go, saying it could have a huge impact.
This year's Bonnaroo will be held June 13-16. Paul McCartney heads a long list if acts.
