Brad Kirschner entered the plea agreement with the Western Judicial Circuit District Attorney Office whereby a felony charge will be dropped provided the 22-year-old Economics major from Atlanta completes a pretrial diversion program.

Campus police arrested Kirschner and another student last June following an investigation begun six months earlier.  The bookie business was alleged to have operated from a campus apartment.

It was not immediately known how much money Kirschner took in as a bookmaker.

Georgia does consider aggravated gambling (facilitating of bookmaker) a felony, though such cases are especially rare.
