Duke fumbles away lead After leading early, the Blue Devils succumbed to the ’Noles

By CRAIG SAPERSTEIN The Chronicle

PRATIK PATEL/THE CHRONICLE

REGGIE LOVE is unable to catch a pass from D. Bryant. Duke lost to Florida State Saturday.

For one quarter Saturday night, fantasy set in for the Duke football team.

After quarterback D. Bryant connected on a 78-yard pass play to tailback Chris Douglas and the Blue Devil defense continually controlled the line of scrimmage, Duke entered the second quarter of play with a shocking 6-0 lead.

But just as quickly as Duke’s fantasy had been summoned, it came to a crashing halt. Old problems that plagued the Blue Devils (0-1, 0-1 in the ACC) last season, like turnovers, dropped passes and the defense’s tendency to give up the big play, resurfaced after the contest’s first 15 min-

utes, leading to an all-too-fa-

miliar result—a 55-13 drubbing by Florida State (1-0,1-0) at Wallace Wade Stadium.

After the contest, the Blue Devils were upbeat about their effort, especially about their first-quarter shutout of the vaunted Seminoles, but admitted that they still have a long way to go before they will be able to compete with the rest of the ACC. “In the first quarter, we were having a real good time out there. We were flying around out there, making some tackles and hitting some people,” said freshman linebacker Jim Scharrer.

Scharrerrecorded eight tackles on the evening, second only to teammate Kenneth Stanford.

“We just shot ourselves in

the foot one too many times,” he said.

The first instance of Duke shooting itself in the foot came early in the second quarter, just after Florida State had completed its first scoring drive of the evening, which culminated in a 40-yard field goal by ’Noles’ placekicker

Xavier Beitia to cut Duke’s lead in half.

Moments later, after the Blue Devils were unable to convert on third down-and-12 from its own 25 yard line, freshman punter Trey McDonald fumbled a perfect snap, which Florida State’s Michael Boulware recovered at the Duke two yard line.

The White House is pursuing missile defense “separate and apart” from the issue of China’s desire to expand its limited arsenal of nuclear missiles, Fleischer said. “The United States has made it clear and continues to make it clear that a military buildup there is not necessary.’5 He also said there was no change in U.S. policy on the testing ofnuclear weapons, now precluded by a worldwide moratorium. “We have no plans to resume testing,” Fleischer said.

The United States might raise the future possibility of underground tests being resumed in both nations, according to the Times and The Washington Post.

China will get an update on U.S. WASHINGTON missile defense plans before President George W. Bush visits Beijing next month as the United States tries to convince other countries that the proposed shield is not a threat, the White House said Sunday.

“This is part of the administration’s outreach to China and other nations such as Russia to discuss with them the reason why we are developing a missile defense system and how it is designed to protect us from rogue nations or accidental launches,” White House spokesperson Ari Fleischer said in a telephone interview.

“It is something we are hoping they will support because it is not aimed at China,” he said. “The president thinks it is important to consult with our allies and other nations.”

Report: Independents satisfied New council will � address integrity More than 35 percent of independents on West Campus said they rarely interacted with anybody on their hall other than members of their block.

The soon-to-be-formed Academic Integrity Council will have its first meeting this month to determine the group’s agenda. Council members have not yet been chosen.

By ANA MATE The Chronicle

Roughly three-fourths of West Campus independents are “generally satisfied” with their social lives, according to a survey of 252 residents. That result surprised Duke Student Government officials, who hope to thoroughly examine residential life this year.

“Part of the motivation of the survey was that several students approached me saying they were dissatisfied with independent life,” said senior Sean Young, residential life liaison for DSG, who conducted the e-mail survey. “I hope the results will encourage various organizations to think outside of their box on social

programming.”

The survey included 26 questions and comment space on Sean Young subjects ranging from dormitory interaction to off-campus events. Despite general satisfaction, the survey Revealed aspects students feel can be improved and detailed what exactly they want campus life to entail.

About 35.1 percent of students reported that they hardly interact with residents on their hall other than with members of their blocks. A majority of students said the house council programming in their dormitory does not increase interaction between students who do not know one another. In addition, 41.3 percent of students said they do not attend residential fraternity parties at all.

“I think a lot of the results are generalizeable,” said Larry Moneta, vice president for student affairs.

“Some think there is a need for more social activities and somewhat more alcohol [as well as] somewhat less alcohol.”

The results will help DSG and the administration answer questions about the upcoming changes in residential life and campus climate.

Young hopes the survey will motivate the administration, Campus Council and other organizations to begin improving the life of independents as a group.

Specifically, he hopes to use existing structures like residential advisers and house councils to increase interaction among students.

By KENNETH REINKER The Chronicle

Following last spring’s recommendations from the Academic Integrity Assessment Committee, the University will soon assemble a council dedicated to the issue.

The 13-member Academic Integrity Council will consist of seven faculty members, Honor Council Vice Chair Missy Walker, Duke Student Government Vice

Another aspect Young wants to address is on-campus concerts and performances. Results from the survey show that such events greatly contribute to the social lives of independents. “I want to meet with the [Duke Universityl Union to experiment, expand and encourage [the continuation] of the shows they’ve been having,” Young said.

Although only 252 students answered the survey, Young is confident the results comprise the general opinion of the student population. He said they are the best evidence DSG has at the moment.

Though the survey focused on independent and residential life, many of the comments addressed alcohol consumption and the new policies regarding alcohol. Young said that there are still many questions to be answered on this topic, and he hopes to explore them further as needed.

AUDITIONS

President for Academic Affairs Abhijit Prabhu, three administrators and a graduate student.

The faculty members, who have not yet been announced, were chosen based on recommendations from the chairs of the Arts and Sciences and Engineering faculty councils.

Vice Provost for Academic Affairs Judith Ruderman, who will head the committee, plans to host the council’s first meeting by the end of September, and hopes it will meet about once a month. “The goal [for the first meeting] is to discuss and also set the agenda for the year and keep [academic integrity] in the foreground for undergraduates,” Ruderman said. “We are a deliberative body and an action-oriented body.”

By the end ofthe year, Ruderman hopes to begin including representatives from professional schools on the council, and next year she hopes to officially expand the group to encompass all Duke schools.

Peter Burian, chair ofthe Academic Council, is glad the University is doing something to address academic dishonesty, and hopes the council will invite representatives from all parts of the University community.

“This is a question that affects everybody. Faculty are not immune. Graduate and professional schools are not immune,” Burian said. “It makes sense to talk about why it is improper and what we will do.”

One of the council’s first priorities will be to educate the faculty about academic integrity and their role in promoting it. The council will likely distribute a brochure.

“I think that it would be important for faculty to talk to students about the reason for their concerns, not simply inform them ofrules or give them presentations, but a discussion of the issues and values that See INTEGRITY on page 5 ¥•

� CONFERENCE from page 2 rancorous meeting of the forum that began Saturday evening and ran into early Sunday morning.

Shawqi Issa, spokesperson for the Arab caucus at the forum, said he thought the document was very good.

“It’s just facts. The Israeli government is a racist government... and the Israeli government is an apartheid government. These are facts, and we can prove it,” he said.

Robinson, who has worked to allay the controversy over the condemnation of Israel at the world racism conference, criticized the document, saying she regretted the language equating Zionism with racism.

Palestinians have the right to protest what they believe to be their victimization, but “it is not appropriate that text emerged that revictimizes and is hurtful in itself,” said Robinson, who is also secretary-general of the U.N. conference.

Human Rights Watch condemned the resolution.

“Israel has committed serious crimes against the Palestinian people, but it is simply not accurate to use the word genocide and wrong to equate Zionism with racism,” said Reed Brody, the New York-based group’s advocacy director.

Brody said most ofthe forum’s document was an eloquent condemnation ofracist and discriminatory practices in many other countries around the world. “It’s just unfortunate that the

use of inaccurate and intemperate language may overshadow all of that,”

he said.

Israeli President Moshe Katsav rejected the criticism as “a palpable expression ofracism and anti-Semitism.”

“Many ofthose shouting at the Durban conference in South Africa ought to bow their heads before the state of Israel because of the punctilious manner in which all its institutions respect human rights,” Katsav send in the town ofYerucham.

Black US. lawmakers attending the conference expressed disappointment Sunday that criticism of Israel has overshadowed efforts to raise the question ofreparations to Africa and blacks for slavery and colonialism.

They also said the Bush administration has made a historic mistake by keeping Secretary ofState Colin Powell away from the U.N. meeting because of the criticism ofIsrael in the conference’s draft final declaration, but acknowledged the language was problematic.

“The berating of the Jewish people and... the equating of Zionism with racism fills the conference with unnecessary hatred,” said Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, a Texas Democrat.

The head of the Israeli delegation to the U.N. conference said despite attempts by U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan and Robinson to ensure similar language does not end up in the official conference’s final document, the Palestinian delegation is working to keep it in.

are at stake,” Burian said. “In academic life, our word is all we have; our commodity is honest discourse.

What’s at stake is not merely a kind ofbad manners or unfortunate peccadilloes, but the basis of relationships in academia.”

Ruderman thinks the council could address, topics ranging from dean’s excuses to the fairness of sanctions handed down by the Undergraduate Judicial Board.

Burian expressed concerns about the judicial system not taking academic integrity seriously enough, stressing the need for a system that faculty can rely on. He said some professors prefer not to initiate judicial proceedings because they feel it puts them in the position of prosecuting their students.

Some administrators have said students may not know when they are cheating, particularly when they collaborate with friends on homework.

Burian does not believe that ignorance on the part of students or lack ofattention by faculty are the real problems. “It is an issue of internalizing standards, recognizing the central importance of trustworthiness,” he said.

Last week, Ruderman had a preliminary meeting with Elizabeth Kiss, director of the Kenan Institute for Ethics and Diane Waryold, director of the Center for Academic Integrity, a Duke-based national organization on academic integrity.

“I want to do everything I can to make sure [the council succeedsl,” Waryold said. “Duke has made a commitment from the top down. This is a very important year for us in terms of changing the process.”

Waryold noted that nationally, there has been a slight increase in instances of academic dishonesty, and partially attributes Duke’s problem to intense academic pressure.

“I do think Duke has a very competitive climate.

When you look at reasons why students cheat, it’s more because they want to get ahead,” she said.

Another interesting feature of White’s location is that it allows for disabled access to the upper floor of the East Duke building. An elevator shaft running from the outside of the White building up to a second floor walkway leads to the upper floor of East Duke.

One professor, however, criticized the hall’s layout.

“I don’t understand why they made it long instead of wide,” said John King, a visiting professor who teaches an Economics 52 lecture in the main hall. “It would be better if it weren’t so far back.”

In addition to the wireless access, instructors can utilize a new document scanner, similar to an overhead projector. Instead of shining light through a transparent sheet, the document camera displays a color image onto the screen. The picture is three-dimensional and shows fine detail. The School of Medicine uses similar technology to perform dissections.

Some of the lecture hall’s other equipment is courtesy of the film and video department, which brought a 16-mm projection camera and may also bring in a 35-mm camera, though these are solely for special films.

2 Just two days after kicking off the 2001 0 season with a decisive Puke shutout win over Davidson, No. 17 Duke was held scoreless in a 2-0 loss to Maryland at Koskinen Stadium Sunday afternoon to kick offthe ACC regular season.

Plagued by an inability to put the ball in the back ofthe net, the Blue Devils put up 13 shots against Terrapin Ali Wolff but could not get past the senior goalkeeper.

“It was a very disappointing loss,” said coach Robbie Church, who suffered his first loss at the helm of the Blue Devils. “I felt we were the better team.

We played well in the first half,' but we couldn’t score on our opportunities. We have to handle the final third [of the match] much better than we did today.”

Duke had plenty of chances to score all game long, but came up empty every time. One Maryland spectator chided the Blue Devils all game with chants of “They don’t want to score” after Duke repeatedly got the ball inside the box, making it an even more frustrating loss for Church.

“I don’t think Maryland had much at all,” Church said. “Their first two shots were two goals. Even when we were down 2-0, I wasn’t really worried. I thought we had plenty of time to come back. But at that point, we made some really bad decisions late in the game, and we pressed.”

For one quarter the Blue Devils pi � FSU from The Chronicle page 1 way into the endzone four seconds later to give Florida State a 10-6 lead with 12 minutes remaining in the first half.

One-and-a-half minutes later, the Seminole special teams wreaked havoc on McDonald again, this time blocking his punt at the Blue Devil 12 yard line.

Florida State’s James Carter, who blocked McDonald’s punt, retrieved the loose ball and ran it into the endzone to increase FSlfs lead to 17-6.

“I think offensively and defensively we came out and played well. I don’t think we played well at all on special

teams,” Duke coach Carl Franks said.

“What momentum we had early we gave up, and with a team like Florida State, you can’t give up easy chances to score.”

After McDonald’s blunders, the

Seminoles scored twice more before halftime, one of which came on running back Nick Maddox’s 51-yard scamper with 5:14 left in the half to give Florida State a 24-7 advantage. The other, which came on a 26-yard pass from FSU quarterback Chris Rix to Maddox with 1:06 remaining, augmented the ’Noles’ advantage to 31-6 at halftime.

The two end-of-half scoring drives were especially gratifying for Maddox, who was born and raised in nearby Kannapolis and spurned offers from several North Carolina schools to play football in the Sunshine State.

“I couldn’t have painted a better setting, to come back home and have a great game like this,” Maddox said. “I had about 40 families’ members here [watching the gamel.”

Early in the third quarter, Maddox’s family conglomerate was treated to another Seminole score when Florida State’s Kyler Hall, a backup freshman defensive lineman, blocked McDonald for the second time. A melee for the

pigskin ensued, but FSU’s Gennaro Jackson dove onto the ball as it reached the end zone, giving Florida State a commanding 38-7 lead. The Seminoles added one more touchdown in the third quarter, not to mention a touchdown and a field goal in the final stanza, to finish the evening with 55 points.

Meanwhile, Duke’s lone bright spot in the second half came at the end of the

third quarter, when Blue Devil cornerback Ronnie Hamilton caught Seminole Chance Gwaltney’s 51-yard punt and raced 68 yards down the sideline after a juking several Seminole special teamers to score Duke’s second TD of the night, accounting for Duke’s 13-point output. The punt return was Hamilton’s second touchdown of his career, a number the senior hopes will continue to grow as the season progresses.

“The punt team did a good job of blocking,” Hamilton said of his touchdown dash. “B.J. Hill had a great block and I was just able to see the hole. Then, I just took it from there.”

Despite Hamilton’s late-game score, the Blue Devils said that their focal point for the next week of practice will be the first quarter, where they demonstrated potential on both sides of the ball. In particular, Franks hopes that Bryant will continue to show him improvement in the pocket and that his defense will be able to create some turnovers by the opposing offense, just as Florida State did to Duke Saturday night. But all in all, the Blue Devils believe that, despite the lopsided loss, the Florida State game did give them something on which to build.

“All that we are going to try to do next week is focus on that first quarter today,” Scharrer said. “If we play every week like we did that first quarter we will have no problem this year and will KENNETH STANFORD (left) attempts to prevent Florida State from connecting on another pass.

There is nothing in this world so awful as hope.

Duke entered Saturday’s game at Wallace Wade Stadium as an enormous underdog to the Florida State Seminoles.

But then something entirely unexpected happened. The Blue Devils came out and took control of the game.

Both the offensive and defensive lines controlled the line of scrimmage, and Duke held a 6-3 lead.

There was well over a half a football game to play after the block, but the game was all but over.

“When I knew we were going to have a lot of problems was after we dropped the snap and had one blocked,” Franks said. “The kicking game can hurt you fast. It turned the momentum on us in a hurry. Our guys kept playing, but it wasn’t the same game after that.”

The offense had little success for the remainder of the game, plagued by dropped balls and overthrown passes.

“Once they got the momentum off those two kicks, we started pressing and couldn’t get the momentum back,” Game Commentary quarterback D. Bryant said. “The momentum swing rocked us, and we With just over 12 minutes remaining couldn’t get back on top.

Duke splits weekend series in Wolfpack Invitational

By ADRIENNE MERCER The Chronicle

RALEIGH— The No. Northeastern 1 13 Blue Devils split 0 their season opener at Duke the Adidas Wolfpack Invitational at N.C. State this weekend. Duke (1-1) shut out Massachusetts Saturday, defeating the Minutemen 3-0. But Sunday, the Blue Devils were shut out themselves by Northeastern (2-0) by a score of 1-0.

“They were very similar games,” Duke coach John Rennie said. “[Sunday] we just didn’t score goals. I think both teams sat back a little bit and played a little de-

fense and looked to counter attack.”

In the roughly played game against Northeastern Sunday, the Blue Devils had plenty of chances to score. Duke outshot the Huskies 15-11. In the first half of the game, Duke sophomore Jordan Gila, senior captain Kevin Sakuda and junior Byron Rausenberger had four shots combined within eight minutes, but all were blocked. In the second half, Duke did not take advantage of four corner kicks and two indirect kicks.

It took the Huskies until the 68th minute to score their only goal. Northeastern forward Fetter Starnes netted the goal after getting past Duke in the box. Starnes was assisted by Phonethip Kentnoweng. Senior Scott Maslin was in goal for the Blue Devils and tallied two saves on the game.

“We did what we wanted to do,” Rennie said. “We made a mistake in the back that gave [Northeastern] a goal, but if you don’t score goals, you’re not going to win. We need to finish our opportunities, which we had a lot of.”

Rennie attributes part of the inability to score goals to an adjustment period of new team composition. Two

of the newcomers started for Duke Sunday—sophomore transfer Matt Ahumada and freshman Owoicho Adogwa. Also several injuries to veteran players plagued the Blue Devils this weekend. ‘"We’re a new team, there are a lot of new faces out there and there are three faces that aren’t there at all,” Rennie said. “[Junior] Trevor Perea couldn’t play today because he’s had an injury that he’s been dealing with and it flared up. And we still miss [senior] Scott Noble and [freshman] Victor Victorsson.

We played very, very well considering all the new faces out there. We just couldn’t finish our opportunities, and that’s a big part of the game.”

Offensively, Duke’s play against Massachusetts Saturday was almost opposite of Sunday’s game against Northeastern. Duke outshot Massachusetts 17-6. Junior Adam Guren wasted no time in scoring the Blue Devils’ first goal eight minutes into the opening stanza off an assist from Demetrio Sanchez.

Gila netted the second goal assisted by junior Donald Mclntosh in the 80th minute, and senior Noah Lewkowitz was not far behind, scoring in the 88th minute, assisted by Rausenberger.

Maslin recorded his second-career shutout in Duke’s defeat of UMass and tallied three saves. The victory was the 19th consecutive season-opening win for the Blue Devils.

Next week, Duke hosts the Duke/Adidas Soccer Classic starting Friday. Rennie insists that outscoring opponents is the most important thing for Duke in the upcoming tournament.

“We played well,” Rennie said. “But you’re not going to win unless you score goals.”

Nice start: Volleyball lives up to preseason billing

By MICHAEL JACOBSON The Chronicle

Puke

3 When the Duke volleyball

team left for Dallas on Thurs0 day to compete in the SouthSMU ern Methodist University Doubletree Invitational, they looked to build on the success they enjoyed at the end oflast season. As the 2000 campaign drew to a close, the Blue Devils made some waves in the ACC by taking second place in the conference tournament and receiving an at-large bid to the NCAA. This season, however, Duke would not go unnoticed. With the combination of strong offseason workouts coupled with a squad that lost only one senior from the year before, the Blue Devils, ranked third in the ACC’s pre-season poll, looked to start this season off strong.

Duke lived up to its billing this past weekend, leaving Dallas with a 3-0 record and the SMU Doubletree Invitational championship

in pocket.

“I thought tonight was a great beginning for us,” head coach Jolene Nagel said after Friday night’s win against Weber State. “When we played together, we were really playing well at a high level, and that’s exciting to see early in the season.”

Sophomore Krista Dill tallied 29 kills and 19 blocks in the first tournament of the season. She anticipated the Blue Devils’ success this weekend.

“We didn’t surprise ourselves,” Dill said.

“We just came out and did everything we were supposed to and did it well. It felt really good out on the court.”

Duke adjusted well to the scoring rule change from side-out scoring to rally scoring, as they came out firing on Friday night CHRONICLE FILE PHOTO against Weber State. The Blue Devils picked DORRETTE BURWELL and the volleyball team won the SMU Invitational this weekend. up the first two games 30-12 before dropping

a very close third, 31-29. Duke answered back in the fourth, 30-19, to secure their first win ofthe season.

“I like [the new scoring system] personally,” sophomore setter Arielle Linderman commented. “A couple of mistakes make a big deal. I just think it raises the whole level of the game.”

In Saturday’s morning match, Kentucky would prove to be Duke’s most formidable opponent of the tournament. After the Blue Devils took the first two games, the Wildcats responded with two oftheir own to tie the match.

Duke would prevail, winning the fifth game handily, 15-9. Senior Dorrette Burwell, the tournament’s MVP, led the Duke attack with 15 digs and 11 kills en route to tournament totals of 36 and 41, respectively.

“We didn’t want to make it routine to lose the third game every time,” Dill added.

“Sometimes it gets you down mentally. It was one of our goals to get it done in three, and we just let up.”

For the championship game against the host Mustangs, however, Duke came out firing on all cylinders, clinching the match and the tournament in straight games.

“The last SMU game, we just pulled it together,” Dill said. “We had bits and pieces in every game where we played well, but the SMU game was our best. We pulled it together really well.”

Sparked by some great individual performances, the Blue Devils played extremely well as a team.

“This was a very good first tournament for us,” Nagel said. “We had so many people who did a tremendous job. I’m really excited about how well we played together.”

After a very successful weekend Duke hosts High Point on Tuesday night in their first of

two non-conference matches this

year.

Monitoring draws criticism p- MONITORS from page 1

safety regulations, regulate access to the party and call for assistance if necessary.

There must be one monitor for every 25 people at a party, and groups must submit a list of party monitors to the Event Advising Center by 4 p.m. the Monday—or four business days—prior to the event. Groups must identify monitors with T-shirts, arm bands, or name tags. In the future, the University will provide all party monitors with orange T-shirts.

Additionally, party monitors are not permitted to consume alcohol at the party or in the 24 hours beforehand. “If you smell like O’Doul’s, or whatever else you drink, your respect will drop down a notch as a party monitor,” said Gardner, event management program coordinator.

Wasiolek said she was generally pleased with this weekend’s policy enforcement and that the most frequently violated part of the policy was the requirement of food and non-

us to do,” said sophomore Sam Fleder, who at-

tended the session. “It’s going to be hard to attract people to the party and have fun if we’re being watched over the shoulder.”

One provocative issue among those at Thursday’s session was the announcement that Duke is considering contracting independent security personnel for student parties. The announcement evoked audible booing from the audience.

Another concern was monitor enforcement of commons-room occupancy limits; they will be expected to turn students away at the door once capacity is reached.

When they faced students at the training session, administrators stressed that party monitors are a student creation. The idea came from students on the Alcohol Policy Review Committee, who suggested the change last April in an effort to make campus parties safer.

“At an ideal party, there would be no fights, no property damage... People are not urinating in public, not throwing bottles against the section,” said Stephen Bryan, assistant dean of judicial affairs and the evening’s first speaker.

alcoholic beverages.

While Wasiolek did not find much negative student feedback during her visits, those at last week’s party monitor training session voiced concerns about the policy.

Honoring Labor Day Today

is Labor Day, a time for celebrating the American labor movement. Like most holidays, it defines a certain time of year—the end of summer—and shows that the subject is important enough to abstain from work. Important to all but the University, that is.

Aside from Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, the University officially honors no other national holidays. King’s work was important and worthy of a day ofreflection and admiration, but unfortunately, the University does not celebrate with the same enthusiasm the independence of this country. Instead, on the anniversary of this great nation’s birth, students and professors must attend class.

There are other holidays—like Memorial Day, which respects those who have given their lives to defend the country—that Duke ignores as well.

Many of the employees who provide the infrastructure for this campus are not at work today in recognition ofLabor Day or were not here for the Fourth of July. However, students and faculty, who rely upon their services each day, are required to come to school. Other universities across the nation celebrate all ofthese holidays, so why not Duke?

The University cannot practically honor every single holiday, as students, faculty and employees must remain productive. However, it does have an odd way of honoring several important ones by holding classes.

Homecoming’s last dance

After

several years of poor attendance and excessive costs, the future of the homecoming semi-formal is in limbo. Such reconsideration of the event’s future is long overdue.

The annual dance, held outdoors on Main West Quadrangle, consistently garners more interest from freshmen than upperclassmen and forces the Campus Social Board to raise $34,000 each year from athletics, alumni affairs and other offices.

On a campus where many social activities are hosted by living groups, the semi-formal has been an admirable attempt for change, Various organizations at the University have attempted to provide such programming in the past, and the unsuccessful ones have slowly been weeded out. The dance’s time for elimination may have come as well. Student leaders and campus administrators must think hard before investing any more resources in an event that people simply do not attend.

But if the Campus Social Board wants to save the dance, it must cut costs. Years ago, when the Duke University Union hosted the event, it did so indoors. Perhaps this year’s organizers should do the same, eliminating the cost of the tent. It should also avoid purchasing some of the pricier decorations.

Non-living group based events remain an asset to campus programming, but they should not be kept around for an exorbitant cost to students if none of them care to go.

Columnist ignores racial prejudice in admissions In cheering the recent court decision against the University of Georgia’s affirmative action admissions policy for non-whites, John Zimmerman’s Aug. 30 column argues for college admissions to be restricted to “the most qualified individuals,” namely, “smart, curious and hardworking students” with high SATs

and GPAs. Like some previous white Chronicle columnists, he proceeds from the unspoken assumption that

his unrevealed qualifications trump those he implies are unqualified affirmative action admits.

This suggests another implicit,

Affirmative action makes up for obstacles faced John Zimmerman makes good points in his Aug. 30 column, “Courts rule against affirmative action.” It is true

that race or ethnicity alone is not a worthy or valuable criterion for admitting a student. He is correct in stating that “smart, curious and hard-working students are always wanted.” However, he is dead wrong in arguing Duke should not seek.diversity in GPAs and SAT scores.

These scores do not accurately identify smart, curious

and hard-working people.

disadvantaged Moreover, students have not had the resources of an excellent public or private school education, tutoring and prep courses, a nurturing environment, a stable family and so forth. The relevance of affirmative action is the adverse environment that many racial or ethnic minorities encounter daily. College admissions need to consider the discrimination and

has surmounted and accordingly adjust their assessment of the applicant beyond the SAT and GPA. In many ways, minorities have had to work harder, be smarter and imagine more possibilities in order to achieve the same successes as a non-minority.

There is the value and need for affirmative action to better identify smart, curious and hard-working students.

Staffbox exhibits poor taste toward Palestinians The first line in the staffbox of the Aug. 31 issue reads, “launch a war against the Palestinians” and isn’t at all funny. I’m Palestinian.

This isn’t some unreal situation on TV. Real lives are

lost—real people, real families, real pain and suffering.

This isn’t even the first time that I’ve seen such disregard for the emotions or plight of other peoples or groups. I hope that in the

future your staff uses more taste in their comments in the staffbox and in the newspaper in general.

“Would you take my other son,

Lamont?”

He did, of course, and now maybe you begin to understand what a special kind of man W.W. was. If not, let me tell you about Shawn Ragland, the youngster convicted of killing Elijah.

At the sentencing hearing, Johnson asked the court for permission to speak and offered this proposition: Sentence the 20-year-old gunman to 15 years and order him to earn his high school diploma and a college degree. If he accomplishes those things in, say, six or seven years, “then let him out at that time to do 1,000 hours of community service with me.”

Maybe you won’t be too surprised to learn that Ragland, after serving just two years for killing Johnson’s “son,” ’

was released to Johnson’s custody, moving into his home.

Elijah’s mother, Oletha Harris, admitted she had mixed feelings about that move. “Sometimes I feel for Shawn,” she told a reporter, “and other days I want him to die, too.”

That’s probably close to where most

of us are.

But listen to Johnson, in a speech to students at Anacostia High School: “It’s just possible that if Shawn Ragland gets another chance in life, he’ll reach back and help a brother. If I can forgive a guy who killed my son, you can forgive a guy who bumped into you.”

That’s where a lot of us wish we could be.

Only 16 inj ured in first ever DATA Bus 500 Durham, NC The first ever DATA Bus 500 held on Saturday at Duke University recorded only 16 injuries to pedestrians and riders, a number that surprised many nervous observers and event followers. With injury expectations in the tens of dozens,

chief event organizer Dan Glasier said the first outing went “disappointingly smoothly.”

“Of couse, we didn’t organize the Sparky event thinking, ‘Let’s see how many MrOnpwi people we can send to the hospital with this thing,’” said Glasier, “but, personally, I think unnecessary injuries are part of what makes the DATA bus special. Sure, it’s a point deduction in most categories, but the drivers are expected to push the envelope a little. Boxing matches have knockouts, football games have concussions, and DATA buses have hip fractures, you know? It adds an extra dimension of danger to the event, which is why 10,000 people turned out for it. I hope we didn’t disappoint them too badly.”

Each driver in this year’s DATA Bus 500 had to compete in a series of five grueling events, Campus Drive Time Trial, Landscape Turfing, Xtreme Passenger Dropoff, Hijack Prevention and of course, the ever-popular Stone Column Takedown. Each score, rated either on a scale of one to 10 or by time measurements, was then averaged with the other four event scores to create an overall score and determine the winner of the entire competition.

This year’s winner, Silas Remington, a Durham resident for 25 years, said of his performance, “I guess I did pretty good, right? I was a bit worried a few weeks ago because I broke a toe on my passen-

ger-kicking foot while I was practicing for the in extreme circumstances” and that the volunteerpasPassenger Dropoff event, but I developed a new techsenger who used the weapon was “horsewhipped nique of giving the passenger a quick elbow shot to relentlessly.”
