Who You Gonna Call?

--Do you still have some champagne left in your Globe Buyout Bottle? Pour another one for Carol Beggy, who worked on the "Names" column. [Boston Phoenix Media Log]

--A woman from West Roxbury allegedly encountered sorority hazing from hell at Hofstra University, which is in New York. [WCVB]

--Harvard professor Walter L. Johnson is bound to make students erupt in embarrassed giggles. He's teaching a class called "Bodily Functions: The History of Bare Life and Biopower." How about he adds the word "poop" in that subtitle? [Harvard Crimson]

--Know all those signs asking you not to take hazardous materials onto planes? Well, some doofus didn't read them, and now a Logan customs worker is in the hospital after being exposed to what WBZ calls a "fumigant." [WBZ]
