Athletics cedes Sears Cup Court of Appeals Duke releases new athletics department mission statement denies S2M penalty

By ALEX GARINGER The Chronicle

A U.S. Court of Appeals filed its longawaited decision on the Heather Sue Mercer case.

Maintaining the status quo, a new athletics department mission statement is conceding defeat for the foreseeable future in one of the prestigious measures of collegiate athletic programs.

The statement admits that winning the Sears’ Directors Cup, an annual award given to the most successful college athletics program in the nation, is no longer a realistic goal for

Duke athletics. Released last week prior to the Nov. 21 Academic Council meeting, it calls for strengthening the University’s current track—in which some teams will continue to compete at the highest national levels, while others will remain competitive only at lower regional levels.

“We do not believe that we need to fundamentally change what we are attempting to do or how we are attempting it,” reads the statement, drafted by Associate Athletics Director Christopher Kennedy. “In some programs, we need to find ways to achieve our current goals more effectively, but within the

current structure and philoso-

phy, as embodied in the tiered nature of the department.”

After eight years and four court rulings, a former Duke football kicker’s gender discrimination lawsuit is likely

Marking the latest decision in the landmark case that began when Mercer tried out for the football team in 1994, the appeals court ruled that punitive damages are not allowed in private actions brought to enforce Title IX, the federal statute meant to ensure equality in collegiate

ties, after her placement on the inactive roster in fall 1995, constituted violations ofTitle IX. In its six-page ruling, the panel cited a 2002 U.S. Supreme Court decision, Barnes v. Gorman, that ruled against the allowance of punitive damages in several other non-discrimination laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

U.N. officials to begin work in Iraq

American advisors formulate goals to ensure effectiveness of weapons inspections

By JAMES DAO and ERIC SCHMITT New York Times News Service

The George W. WASHINGTON Bush administration is initiating a series of diplomatic and military steps that must be completed before the United States could go to war in Iraq, American and allied officials say.

The tasks, some of which could take weeks or even months, include formalizing allies’ roles in any offensive, discouraging neighboring countries from launching their own strikes against Iraq, and deciding whether to seek U.N. support for an attack. Failure to accomplish many of these ob-

jectives could delay or complicate the onset of war.

The administration is moving ur-

gently to accomplish its objectives, even before the start of the weapons inspections ordered by the United Nations. One goal is to create a credible threat of force, which might pressure President Saddam Hussein of Iraq to comply with the new resolution of the UN. Security Council.

The other main reason for acting speedily is to be ready for combat in

Iraq before the hot weather sets in there next year.

There has already been some progress, officials said.

US. officials have privately secured informal permission for basing and overflight rights from several Central Asian and Persian Gulf nations, including Kuwait and Qatar,

but those commitments need to be formalized. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is expected to consult with allies this week at the NATO meeting in Prague, Czech Republic, on how they might fill in for U.S. forces now in Europe that would be moved to the Gulf region.

The United States has stockpiled tanks and heavy equipment for more than 30,000 troops in several Gulf nations and on ships nearby. But additional equipment for Marine or Army divisions would take three to four weeks to reach the Gulf region from ports like Beaumont, Texas, or Savannah, Ga. See IRAQ on page 8

LAW PROFESSOR JAMES COX (left) AND NEW YORK TIMES REPORTER STEPHEN LABATON talk about corporate ethics in the wake of scandals surrounding former Securities and Exchange Commission chair Harvey Pitt.

Cox, Labaton discuss SEC scandals

By ALEX GARINGER .

The Chronicle

One just broke the story ofthe most recent scandal in American business; the other has become one of the most-quoted legal experts on corporate scandals.

From the Enron Corp. debacle to the Election Night resignation of Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Harvey Pitt, New York Times legal correspondent Stephen Labaton and law professor James Cox discussed corporate ethics Saturday at the Fuqua School ofBusiness.

Labaton, Law ’B6, spoke in detail about the anonymous tip that initiated his investigation into Pitt’s appointment ofWilliam Webster as the head of a new board overseeing the accounting profession. The fall-out from Labaton’s initial Oct. 31 story led to Pitt’s resignation.

“It all started three weeks ago with a 50-second phone message left on my machine that was both vague and tantalizing,” Labaton said. The anonymous source suggested that Labaton look into Webster’s involvement on the board of U.S. Technologies, a small,

publicly traded company that was facing fraud accusations.

What the source did not know, but what Labaton soon discovered, was that Webster headed a three-person audit committee for the company, voting to dismiss outside auditors in the summer of 2001 after those auditors raised concerns about internal financial controls. Webster told Labaton he had informed Pitt about his involvement in the company, but Pitt

decided to withhold the information from

the SEC during Webster’s appointment. “[Webster] had laid this all out to Harvey Pitt, and he was assured it was not a problem,”Labaton said. “He generally felt he was set up. In his mind, he did what he thought was the right thing to do.”

Within two weeks, both-Pitt and Webster had resigned.

“Pitt is really in my mind a Shakespearean character,” Labaton said. “He trained for this job his entire career, but when he got it, he was so blinded by the consequences of the things he was doing.”

He added that soon after Pitt assumed the chair in 2001, he vowed that the SEC

■

was not going to be as confrontational to accounting firms as it was under his predecessor, Arthur Levitt. That vow came just before the Enron scandal broke. Since Enron, Pitt had become much more insular and combative to reporters and politicians, Labaton said.

Labaton also described the reporting process of the story to an audience of mostly fellow journalists, specifically the decision of when to stop investigating the story and simply run it, or, as he said, “pull the trigger The discussion was part of the weekend conference of the Duke Magazine Editorial Advisory Board, of which Labaton is a member.

Cox focused his portion of the discussion on corruption and, in particular, the Enron incident.

He said despite the recent scandal, the SEC needs as much funding and resources as it can get to make sense of the accounting maneuvers corporations are using. “The sad story is that we really have not changed, and there is no reason to believe that the accounting industry is going to cease cross-selling,” Cox said. ”

Last January, members of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity shocked the greek community when they announced their decision to disaffiliate from their national organization. Almost a year later, even though the Interfraternity Council and the University no longer formally recognize SAE, members now say they are confident they made the right decision in dissolving.

Members highlighted the increasingly off-campus party scene, the additional responsibility among brothers and a general ability to thrive as an off-campus fraternity as reasons why dissolution was their best decision.

Will Brown, former president of SAE and a senior, said the group can do everything it has done in the past but is no longer restricted by University or national organization regulations.

“We’re not missing out on too much,” he said, adding he empathizes with Kappa Sigma’s decision to dissolve itself last week and that he looks forward to sponsoring joint activities to legitimize their presence off campus.

Charlie Yardley, who is in charge of SAE’s recruitment this spring, said that by necessity, ties between brothers have become stronger since dissolving, in order to keep the group functional and organized.

“As a group we’re stronger because we have to be a viable group,” said See SAE on page 12

A Duke University Police Department officer observed a woman chasing a man across the grass and down the sidewalk in front of the Women’s Center Nov. 15 at 12:02 p.m. The female called out to the officer to stop the male she was chasing because he had taken her money. She then tried to stop the male by attempting to take the keys out of the ignition of her 1988 white two-door Oldsmobile Cutlass (N.C. license MYT-9752) he had entered. He drove off with the female hanging onto the car. She was not injured.

The officer was unable to apprehend the male at that time. The female reported that the man, her husband, approached her at her workplace and asked to borrow some money.

During an ensuing conversation, he tried to grab the money from her hand, knocking her down as they struggled.

He forcefully pried the money out of her hand and ran. She sustained broken fingernails from the confrontation.

India blocks Hindu rally by arresting militant chief Togadia called for Hindu state, accused the Indian government of favoring Muslim minority

By KEITH BRADSHER

New York Times News Service

GODHRA, India India took a small step forward Sunday toward taming violence between Hindus and Muslims, as the Hindu nationalist government arrested the leader of a militant Hindu group, preventing a provocative rally here that could have led to bloodshed.

Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee led his Bharatiya Janata Party to national power by extolling and catering to the country’s Hindu majority. But Sun-

day, the state government of Gujarat, also controlled by Vajpayee’s party, sent thousands of constables and paramilitary riot policemen to crack down on militant Hindus.

A large force of constables and riot policemen arrested Pravin Togadia,

the international general secretary of the militant World Hindu Council, shortly before noon Sunday. The police bundled Togadia and his top aides into a police wagon when he left a Hindu temple to Shiva in the city of Ahmedabad, 100 miles west of here, as a

throng of people in the streets and on rooftops jeered and chanted prayers to

Hindu deities.

More than 1,100 additional police officers sealed off this town, where Togadia had planned to hold a mid-afternoon rally.

Fifty-eight Hindus died here in February when a train carrying members of a Hindu group caught fire during an attack by a Muslim mob. That set off widespread rioting that killed 1,000 people in western India, most of them Muslims.

Defying a government ban on reli-

gious rallies in Gujarat ahead of statewide elections Dec. 12 and in a personal appeal Friday by Vajpayee, Togadia urged his supporters on Saturday to converge here for a demonstration Sunday.

But only 52 people were able to evade the police checkpoints and reach a grassy field, where they unfurled saffron flags and marched briefly before they were arrested by battalions of police officers, driven away in a bus and briefly detained.

North Korean radio: Pyongyang has nuclear weapons South Korean officials say broadcast could be a ploy to mislead international community

By PAUL SHIN

The Associated Press

North Korea’s state-run SEOUL, South Korea radio reported for the first time Sunday that the communist country has nuclear weapons, but South Korean officials doubted the credibility of the report.

Pyongyang Radio reported in a Korean-language report that the country “has come to have nuclear and other strong military weapons due to nuclear threats by U.S. imperialists,” according to South Korea’s Yonhap news agency, which monitors broadcasts from the North.

Some took the report as the North’s first confirmation of possession of nuclear weapons. Until now, North Korea had claimed that it was “entitled to have nuclear weapons and more powerful weapons than that to protect its sovereignty from U.S. threats.”

South Korean officials were skeptical that the report represented a change in North Korea’s official position on nuclear weapons, which has been to neither confirm nor deny that the country has them.

“It’s too early to say whether North Korea’s official position on its nuclear issue has changed,” said Choi Young-joon, a chief analyst at South Korea’s Unification Ministry.

“In North Korea, such a report should follow an official government statement or policy announcement or comments by a top official,” he said.

Yonhap played down the significance of the report carried by Pyongyang Radio, which is meant chiefly for the South Korean audience. No other Northern media, including its English-language foreign news outlet, the Korean Central News Agency, carried it.

“Also, it was a one-time report and was not re-

peated,” the South Korean news agenecy reported.

Yonhap said it was likely that the news anchor made a mistake or thatthe North was deliberately trying to create confusion.

In the report, North Korea accused the United States of trying to isolate it from the world by claiming that the communist country had broken nuclear arms control agreements.

“The lie is aimed to tarnish the international prestige and authority of the DPRK (North Korea) and isolate the DPRK on a worldwide scale,” said Rodong Sinmun, the North’s communist party newspaper.

North Korea “is in full accord with the main spirit and purpose” of a 1994 pact with the United States and other anti-nuclear accords, it said.

IRAQ from page 2 U.S. diplomats have intensified talks with two important allies, Turkey and Israel, to persuade them to remain on the sidelines during an invasion. Quietly, often through informal channels, Washington has also broached discussions with Iran about preventing Iraq’s Shia majority from trying to seize control of Baghdad or form a separate state if Saddam falls.

If Saddam defies or obstructs weapons inspectors, the Bush administration will have to decide whether to seek approval from the Security Council for a military strike. Administration officials said President Bush would like council support, provided it can be obtained quickly. Diplomacy to lay the groundwork for winning that swift passage is in the most preliminary stages.

Senior military officials said the portion of a total force ofabout 250,000 troops needed to begin the “rolling start” of an air, land and sea attack could be in place within 30 days of Bush’s order. But the timing of any offensive hinges on the outcome of the

The 10th ranked ranked field hockey team proved that yesterday afternoon in Winston-Salem, as the Blue Devils stretched Wake Forest to its limits before falling 2-0 to the Demon Deacons —their third loss to Wake Forest this season—in the second round of

the NCAA tournament.

The loss, which came right after Duke’s win over James Madison in the first round Saturday, the school’s first NCAA tournament victory since 1992, ended the Blue Devils’ season at 14-9 and catapulted the Demon Deacons into the Final Four.

Cross country finishes 3rd, 4th in SE Regional Duke awaits bid day as neither team qualified automatically for NCAA championships

By PAUL CROWLEY The Chronicle

In races marked by strong individual performances but disappointing team finishes, the men’s and women’s cross country teams placed third and fourth in their respective races at the NCAA Southeast Region Championships Saturday.

The third-place finish of the men’s squad came after their scorers logged 115 points. Second-place William and Mary had 77, and N.C. State scored a mere 66, winning the meet.

Duke’s top finisher was junior Chris Williams, who clocked in at sixth overall, breezing through the 10,000-meter course in 30:15:6.

“Chris set the tone from the beginning when he started off up at the front of the pack,” head coach Norm Ogilvie said.

The next two Blue Devils to cross the finish line were Nick Schneider and Michael Hatch. The sophomore pair earned times of 30:35.6 and 30:39.7 and the 12th and 16th overall, respectively.

Senior captain Jared Moore took fourth for Duke in 31:09.3 and 36th place overall. Duke’s final scorer was lan Cronin, who came in 55th at the meet.

Georgia Tech holds Duke sc

By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle

ATLANTA

While

raining the rest of the day, the clouds over the Atlanta skyline gave the fans and players a break Saturday afternoon by relenting for the three hours the Georgia Tech-Duke football game lasted. Unfortunately for the Blue Devils, the Duke offense dried up in the 17-2 loss.

Gaining only 284 total yards, Duke (2-9, 0-7 in the ACC) completed only 38 percent of its passes and averaged just 3.8 yards per rushing attempt. Although not playing much better offensively, Georgia Tech (7-4, 4-4) scored all of its points, and all of Duke’s for that matter, in the first half.

“It was just a tough day for our offense,” Duke quarterback Adam Smith said following the showing. “We weren’t able to get into a real rhythm.

We had some big plays, we had some real good plays, but there was space in between them—we couldn’t really link

them together.”

The weather did not transfer luck to the defense either, as the Blue Devils’ lone senior, linebacker Jamyon Small, injured his knee—suspected to be a torn ACL—and will not play in his final game against North Carolina.

“It hurts,” cornerback Kenneth Stanford said. “That’s going to be motivation for us to make sure he goes out with a victory.”

The rest of the Duke defense did have a good day, and although the Duke secondary held Kerry Watkins, second in the ACC in receptions, incheck most of the game, his breakneck speed led the Yellow Jackets to both of their touchdowns.

On Tech’s first drive, quarterback A. J. Suggs threw to Watkins up the middle for an 18-yard gain, which led to a first-and-goal from the six yard line.

Running back Gordon Clinkscale ran the ball in the end zone two plays later.

Watkins had only two more receptions for only seven yards in the next 15 minutes before Suggs completed another pass up-the-middle to the star receiver, who avoided a tackle from Duke’s Brendan Dewan and ran to the Blue Devil four yard-line, good for a gain of 31 yards. Clinkscale scored a touchdown on the next play.

The rest of the sluggish game’s scoring came from a field goal by Georgia Tech’s Luke Magnet following an Adam

Smith interception, and a safety when

the Yellow Jackets’ center hiked the ball through the back of the end zone.

Although the scoring ended with 3:25 left in the first half, both teams had several chances to put points on the board.

Duke had its best chance after Clinkscale's second touchdown just before half-time. Running back Chris Douglas sprinted to a 42 yard gain after weaving through the Tech defensive line on third down, bringing the Blue Devils to Georgia Tech’s four-yard line. But after three downs, Duke had only gained two yards, setting up a chip-shot field goal for Brent Garber. Because of a high snap, however, the attempt was easily blocked.

Duke’s next chance occurred in the third quarter after the Blue Devils stopped a fake Georgia Tech punt on Duke’s 39. Four plays later, Smith, after throwing an 18-yard pass to Andy Rolan to get into Tech territory, fumbled to GeorgiaTech on a keeper.

The tumble was not without controversy, as Smith walked out of the pile with the ball in his hands. The referees still felt

the Yellow Jackets had recovered the ball “They called it the way they saw it,” Smith said. “The guy fell on top of me, my arm was still under there with possession of the ball. I pulled it out of there as quick as I could.”

A third opportunity for the Blue Devils went unfulfilled later in the third quarter when the Duke offensive line stymied a Tech blitz and wide receiver Khary Sharpe split two defenders down the field. Smith, who had a horrendous day, threw his best pass of the game to Sharpe, but the ball went through the receivers hands, and the Blue Devils were left with their first offensive shutout in 33 games.

“We threw some passes that we just missed,” Duke coach Carl Franks said.

“You always have to give the other defense credit. They were getting some pressure on Adam. We had some pretty good pass protection. I thought their defensive backs played very well.”

All fault cannot be placed on the Duke offense, as the Yellow Jacket defense lived up to its highly regarded name. It sacked Smith four times and only allowed 146 passing yards. Tech’s defense also frustrated Duke’s running game, as besides Douglas’ big run, Duke ran for less than 100 yards.

“The defensive players, they made a bunch of big plays in the ball game,” Georgia Tech head coach Chan Gailey said. “I think that we were faster than them, first of all. Our speed showed up on the field defensively.”

The Blue Devil defense held their own, keeping its ACC-leading rush defense by allowing just 127 yards on the ground and surprisingly slowing Tech’s passing attack by giving up just 200 yards. Stanford was especially impressive, intercepting a pass on the Georgia Tech two to save a sure score when the game was still in question in the third quarter. The defense also returned a

V;.! V.

favor to the Yellow Jackets by blocking a field goal as well.

Although the Blue Devil defense had nothing to be ashamed of, the entire Duke team was disappointed with their 24th straight loss to an ACC opponent, but remained optimistic about the last game of its season against UNC Saturday.

“It was a rough day,” Smith said.

“Right now we’ve got to go back and look at our mistakes and turn all of our focus to North Carolina. It’s a one game season.”

� Faced with a similar situation as he had against Virginia, head football coach Carl Franks made a bad decision that may have cost him and the Blue Devils the game, but Franks hopes he can learn from the experience for this weekend versus UNC. With five minutes remaining in the first half, Duke ATLANTA had played its most sluggish football of the year. Rain fell in sheets the previous 24 hours, but barely a drop fell from the clouds that covered the downtown Atlanta sky line during the game. Although acknowledging that the game conditions were adequate, the Blue Devils’ play reflected that of inclement weather. Balls were hobbled through players hands and the running game struggled to get the leverage it normally has. It was a mudfest without mud.

“The field was relatively dry,” quarterback Adam Smith said, confusing observers.

With the half winding down, Duke seemed to finally take advantage of Smith’s statement, converting a third down by Smith throwing a bullet across the middle to Lance Johnson for a 24 yard gain and first-and-ten from the Duke 47. Until that play, Smith had either thrown an incompletion or an interception on his last five attempts on third down.

Two short Chris Douglas runs later, it was third down again, and the Blue Devils had three yards to go. With pass-happy head coach Carl Franks at the helm, most thought that the Blue Devils would throw the ball again. But Duke had a trick up its sleeve.

Sm m Douglas got the ball again, and on this play he raced through a hole in the offensive line, and sprinted past the secondary. Ahead of the pack, it looked as if Duke was going to make it a one possession game, and that Robert Samuel Georgia Tech would have to pay for embarrassingly for a Game Commentary snapping the ball into the back of its end zone safety in the first quarter. As Douglas sped closer to the goal line, free safety Jeremy Muyres began to catch up. At the last second Muyres dove and pushed Douglas enough to force him out-ofbounds on the four yard-line. Douglas had gained 42 yards.

Owning two of the top ten leading rushers in the ACC, things were still in Duke’s favor. With four plays to go four yards, it was no problem for Duke to put seven more points on the board.

On first down, Alex Wade bulled himself to the two yard-line. So far so good for the Blue Devils.

But then Franks decided to get tricky again. Using the Franks’ school of logic, Tech had been fooled on Douglas’ monster run because the entire team felt Smith would pass. Now with the defense sure that the Blue Devils would run, they would be fooled by a pass. Right?

Wrong.

Smith could not find a receiver and had to run on his own, being stopped on the two for no gain. Although there was no net change in yardage on the play, Duke’s momentum took a step back.

DU 2

Should he pass and know that if a touchdown was not scored, a field-goal attempt would be the only option. Or should Franks have had the attitude of touchdown or bust, and run the ball on third and fourth downs.

Franks was faced with almost the exact scenario against Virginia when Duke had third-and-goal from the two while losing 20-13 midway through the fourth quarter. Then Franks had opted to pass, and Smith did not convert. Duke kicked a field-goal, and then eventually lost the game 27-22.

The team has also has had problems with its field-goal unit of late, making the decision even easier for Franks.

“We’ve had more problems on short field-goals then I’ve seen in a long time,” Franks said. “Problems with the snap, problems with protection, problems with the kick. We’ve got to find some way to get it corrected, but I don’t know what to do.”

Not learning from the past, Franks called a pass play again, and Smith, who was 2-for-8 in the first half on third down conversions, once again came up short. Duke’s momentum took another step back.

Salvaging three points out-of-the possession was better than nothing, though, as Duke’s offense needed to get its first points on the board.

Then the Blue Devils snapped the ball high, and the field goal was easily batted back along with Duke’s momentum.

“If we got down there again, I was going to go for it on 4th down,” Franks said, as if the ‘third times a charm’ rule worked in his assessment of mistake sublimation.

Duke had several chances to score later in the game, but none would have changed the course of the game more than this possession. Making the contest a one possession game just before the half would have made the second half much more than a collection of desperation plays.

The team, however, is not down on itself, and feels that it will learn from its mistakes, even though the ACC losing streak is now eight-fold of the “three times” standard Franks has given for correction.

“We didn’t play nearly as well as we have been playing,” Smith said.

“It may have appeared to be a step back, but this was the type of game you learn a lot from it. From a quarterback stand-point I made a lot of mistakes that I can learn from.”

Hopefully with this week’s mistakes, Franks will know “what to do.”

Ramblin’ Wreck loss ends regular season as Blue Devils now prepare for Ga. Tech

When Atlanta hosts this year’s ACC vol-

Duke 1 leyball championships this upcoming week, the volleyball team hopes that the city will hold a better fortune than the city did this

past weekend.

After pulling out a win on what was

a long night against Clemson (17-4, 88 in the ACC), Duke fell 3-1 in a bitter rematch against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (28-5, 13-3 ACC).

The Blue Devils end their regular season with a 23-8 overall record and go into ACC tournament play 11-5 in the conference.

“We need to serve tougher and block

better to be successful,” said Duke head coach Jolene Nagel. “We’ll need to work on those two things in practices this week.”

Tired from the Clemson game and the trip down to Atlanta, the Blue Devils quickly lost steam in the rematch against the Yellow Jackets. After winning the first game 30-23, Duke dropped the next three games to Georgia Tech as their service and attack defense began to wane.

Senior Rachel Vander Griend and junior Krista Dill led Duke with 14 kills each, while three more Blue Devils tallied 10-plus kills. Vander Griend

also had a .429 hitting percentage and six block assists.

“Georgia Tech was anyone’s game, and it shows we are a strong team in the face of great adversity,” senior Josie Weymann said. “[The ACC championship] is going to be a tough weekend. It’s really up for grabs, but I think we can take it.”

Friday night’s win against Clemson was a tight contest, but Duke was able to pull out a win.

Five Duke players recorded doubledoubles including Katie Gilman, her 12th of the year. Freshman Sarah Salem also stepped up with 18 kills against the Tigers.

The older players of the team were relieved to see their team left in good hands at the end of the regular season.

“The team has a really strong future ahead of it,” senior Jill Sonne said. “Our freshmen have contributed to every game and practice.”

Despite ending the regular season with a loss, the team is looking ahead with confidence to the ACC tourna-

ment which kicks off Thursday night.

Having beaten Georgia Tech earlier in the season, the loss has served primarily as a guidance for practice this week for the team.

tremendous amount of respect for them.”

This weekend did something else for Duke’s field hockey program.

“It raised the bar,” head coach Liz Tchou said. “I could not believe how much we improved from the beginning of the season up until the end. And it just shows that these kids are able to handle different tactics, different game strategies, different comer set-ups.

So what does this all mean?

Simply put, this season was not a break out season for Duke.

The Blue Devils beat the teams they were supposed to beat and lost to who they were supposed to lose to.

Yesterday was a great example. It was clear that Wake Forest was a better team.

It dominated the first half, completely.

The only way Duke was going to win was if Wake couldn’t finish its many chances and Duke converted one of its few.

All told, this season was a stepping stone toward future—a future where Duke wins ACC tournaments and goes to NCAA Final Fours, and wins those too.

In other words, the field hockey team is not one of the best programs in the country yet, but it is on its way to getting there. It is spearheaded by the strength of its underclassmen, and it has the respect ofall its opponents.

Now the Blue Devils simply need a group of cohesive underclassmen who can help the program over the hump and into the upper echelon over in the

‘This is a very intelligent group,” Tchou said. “We are looking forward to continuing what we have been doing because we lose three seniors but we have a group of players who have gone through this season and this whole process. We are looking forward to the spring to get these girl’s skills to the next level. I think if we can get our set plays a bit stronger that will be great. We can compete with anyone between the 25 yard lines, but there are certain things we can build on for next year.”

pleased was with her team’s performance in the game proud of her team’s play on the season overall.

“Wake Forest is a great team, and I was just ecstatic that we held them to 0-0 in the first half,” Tchou said. “It was just a real hard-fought game. I

we had a couple more opportunities as far as

penalty corners go—our corners were looking really good. But I’m really proud of the team. We came a long way and improved over the season. We ended up playing some really good hockey. I’m happy with the

overall season.

It was great.”

The game, played in unseasonally cold temperatures Sunday afternoon, remained tied at 0-0 until Wake Forest’s Maeke Boreel got by Duke’s freshmen goalie Christy Morgan on a backhanded shot that beat Morgan to the far post from about six yards out midway through the second half. The Demon Deacons added an insurance goal when Boreel scored her second of game just five minutes later.

The first half was dominated by Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons outshot the Blue Devils 6-1 in the period and kept the ball in Duke’s territory for almost all of the 35 minutes of play. Duke’s best chance came in the last minutes on a penalty comer, but the Blue Devils mishandled the injection.

Wake Forest was able to defeat Duke behind the strength of its defense, which held the Blue Devils to three shots on the day and, with the exception of a couple of penalty corners including two desperate ones late in the game, shut down Duke’s three leading scorers, freshmen Katie Grant, junior Kim Van Kirk, and sophomore Johanna Bischof, who accounted for virtu-

ally half of the team’s points this season. The Demon Deacons spread the Blue Devils out and did not let them clog the middle of the field like they did in their ACC tournament semifinal game last week according to Wake Forest head coach Jennifer Averill.

IONDAY, NOVEMBER 18. 20

for two days straight and of combating the weather all weekend. Averill compared playing two games on Wake Forest’s field to playing “twenty games on the moon.”

Saturday’s game against James Madison featured not cold weather, but very wet weather. During timeouts and halftime, the puddles on the field at Wake Forest’s Renter Stadium had to be swept away. The bad conditions favored the Blue Devils, though, according to Tchou.

“We like that turf wet,” she said. “It’s more fast, and it caters to us, especially our forward speed.”

Indeed, the speed inducing astroturf did help the Blue Devils. They scored two goals, one by Van Kirk and one by sophomore Chrissie Murphy. Murphy’s goal was the game winner, as she finished off a Grant cross after Grant wove down the right side of the field.

The Dukes pressed the Blue Devils in the second half but were turned away by Duke’s defense, led by the freshman Morgan, who recorded several spectacular saves, including one diving block on a hard shot to her side which led Tchou to say ofher goalie “no fear.”

“It is great having her back there,” senior captain

Sarah Wright said. “She has great reflexes. She can be great for three more years.”

And while Morgan and the rest of the freshmen have three years left at Duke, the loss to Wake Forest ended not only Duke’s season, but it also ended the careers of three Blue Devil seniors, Wright, Chrissy Ashley and Erica Perrier. All of the Blue Devil players and coaches lamented the loss of the three.

“They all contributed to the team in different ways,” junior Kim Gogola said. “The team’s personality changes without them here. They have all helped change the program and made it better. Any success we have in the future, we owe to them. We will miss them all next year.”

and prospect Pablo Ozuna went to the Rockies.

Florida reportedly agreed to pay about $3B million of the salary remaining on Hampton’s lucrative contract. The Braves tried to sign Hampton two years ago before the Rockies gave him an eight-year, $l2l million free-agent deal—the richest ever for a pitcher.

The Rockies will pay $ll million of Hampton’s remaining salary, plus a $l9 million deferred signing bonus. The Braves will owe Hampton about $35.5 million over the next three years, with the Rockies and Marlins paying off the final three years of the deal.

The acquisition of Hampton may end the Braves’ interest in re-signing free-agent lefty Tom Glavine, who has spent his entire 16-year career in Atlanta.

The Braves could also decide not to sign free-agent right-hander Greg Maddux.

Glavine attended an NHL game at Philips Arena Sunday. He declined comment on what the trade might mean for his future with the Braves.

Like many previous pitchers, Hampton was a bust in Denver’s thin air. After a 9-2 start with Colorado in 2001, Hampton went 12-26 with a 6.62 ERA for the Rockies. The 30-year-old left-hander was 7-15 this year with a 6.15 ERA, the highest in the major leagues among pitchers who qualified for the ERA title.

Hampton to be traded to Braves career with the Braves after a whirlwind weekend that had the left-hander dealt from Colorado to Florida and then to Atlanta.

The Marlins will get reliever Tim Spooneybarger from the Braves for Hampton, a baseball source said on the condition of anonymity Sunday. The source said details must be finalized, the trade must be approved by the commissioner’s office and the players must pass physicals.

Florida will also reportedly receive an unidentified minor leaguer from Atlanta.

Hampton, who went 21-28 for the Rockies the past two seasons, was part of a six-player swap between Colorado and Florida that was completed Saturday.

In that deal, Hampton and outfielder Juan Pierre moved to the Marlins, while catcher Charles Johnson, outfielder Preston Wilson, reliever Vic Darensbourg

financial aid—the third highest total among last year’s top 30 Sears Cup schools —its athletics budget of around $28.7 million was the fifth lowest among those same 30 schools.

“In a time when University resources are being pinched, that’s just not a realistic path,” Kennedy said. “If all our scholarships were endowed, then we could try [for a Sears Cupl, but we’re a long way from that.”

The Sears Cup compares programs on a point-system, awarding points for achievement in each school’s 20 most successful sports. Duke typically places in the 20s, with a high of seventh place in 1998-1999 and a low of 39th in 19951996. Last year, Duke tied for 30th with the University of Illinois.

Togadia and the 44 aides and supporters who were arrested in Ahmedabad Sunday morning were released on nominal bail, a sign that the authorities probably will not press charges. Togadia’s arrest is nonetheless a potential watershed for the Bharatiya Janata Party, which has benefited politically from his appeals to Hindu pride even while trying to distance itself from his more extreme positions.

Togadia was arrested once before, many years ago, when the Congress Party was in power.

Before his arrest Sunday, Togadia and priests wearing garlands of yellow

Kennedy said Stanford University,

a benchmark school which has won the past eight Sears Cups, is able to excel in many sports because all of its scholarships are endowed. Only 19 percent of Duke’s scholarships are endowed,

limiting the University’s scholarship expansion opportunities.

Athletic Council Chair and biology professor Kathleen Smith dismissed the Sears Cup as an artificial goal “put together by a business to get publicity.”

“It is all about how many programs a school has,” said Smith—Stanford competes in 33 sports, compared to Duke’s 24. “They put a lot of emphasis on sports that give them a lot of standing in the Sears Cup—like swimming—but that no one in the university cares about. [Winning a Sears Cup] is a level of size, not a level of excellence.”

Duke is often compared to Stanford because both schools are among the nation’s top academic research institutions, thereby raising admissions standards and limiting the level of student-athletes Duke is able to recruit.

“Judging from the experience of our academically marginal student-athletes, we have probably adjusted our admissions standards as much as possible consistent with our desire to ensure satisfactory academic performance and high graduation rates,” the statement reads.

YOAVLURIE/THE CHRONICLE

DUKE WRESTLING will not break free of the non-scholarship, non-revenue grip anytime soon in the University’s new mission statement on the Department of Athletics.

Smith said there remains a range of faculty opinion on the trade-offs between academic standards and success on the athletic field. Academic Council members will discuss the statement at its meeting this week, but will not take any further action on the item.

Kennedy noted that Duke continues to field nationally competitive teams in

men’s and women’s basketball, soccer, lacrosse, golf and tennis and is almost at full capacity in terms of scholarships for those sports.

The University will also continue to try to compete on at least a conference level in football. Last month, the University announced a new mission statement in football, which called for several more players to be admitted at a lower range of standards for Duke student-athletes.

Duke will maintain its commitment to supporting “third tier” or non-revenue, non-scholarship sports like swim-

ming and wrestling, on a limited level, but will not provide scholarships. The policy continues a strategy that views those sports as opportunities for student-athletes to pursue individual success on a Division I level, implemented by former president Terry Sanford.

The statement also highlights Duke’s efforts to comply with Title IX. By next year, the number of female scholarships is expected to grow, mirroring the percentage of female undergraduate students, one of the statistical indicators of Title IX adherence.

The athletics department, only $3 million shy of its $l3O million capital campaign goal, will shift financial attention to endowing team operating expenses and scholarships, Kennedy said, as the University wraps up a series of long-term capital projects, including the Yoh Football Center and an addition to Cameron Indoor Stadium.

and orange marigolds completed a religious ceremony on an outdoor dais on the temple grounds.

They prayed before a pair of wooden sandals said to have belonged to a 17th-century holy man who advised the Majarajah Shivaji, a ruler legendary for killing Muslim invaders.

In a speech to worshipers on the temple grounds and crowding nearby rooftops, Togadia, shaking his fist, contended that the Indian government too often sided with the Muslim minority, and should be replaced by a Hindu state.

“Hindus have become second-class citizen in India itself,” he shouted.

During his speech, he told his supporters that he was about to be arrested. He urged his followers to stay calm and not attack the police.

Then Togadia and his top aides climbed into a bright orange jeep adorned on the back with a pair of 8foot-tall plywood images of Maharajah Shivaji on horseback with a drawn sword.

Later, when Togadia’s jeep edged out of the temple gate, the police swiftly surrounded it and detained

the Hindu leader.

Men and women in the crowd were unanimous in their view that the government had indeed done the right thing in detaining Togadia, but worried that Hindus might retaliate against them.

BIOLOGY from page 1 terial on the Medical College Admissions Test.

Despite some adjustments in the curriculum to satisfy pre-med students, many faculty still insist on providing a broad education in biology and equipping students with skills to tackle everyday

situations.

“College is where you learn how to think, how to organize your mind, how to speak—that’s what college does best,” said Sonke Johnsen, assistant professor of biology. “You can learn the specifics later on.”

Providing that broad education means touching on areas from ecology to genetics and to cell biology, some of which have a less obvious connection to medicine than others—a reason why some pre-med biology majors find themselves taking courses that do not interest them, Johnsen suggested.

“I think professors feel challenged to interest them in those areas,” said Dan McShea, assistant professor of biology. “Sometimes, we succeed and that’s the way I like to teach.”

A lack subject interest may also stem from an incessant focus on grades, a side effect generated by the competition to get into medical school. That mentality may be further aggravated by the curve system—the grading method established in a majority of required pre-med courses. By competing directly with each other, students may feel com-

pelled to follow the Darwinian philosophy of survival of the fittest.

“It’s probably a fair generalization that people focused on medical school are keenly aware that their grades matter a lot,” Wray observed.

Johnsen agreed. “It’s hard to get into med school, a lot of it is done in grades,” he acknowledged.

“There’s far too much stress put on the evaluation aspect of the course. It all comes down to Ts this going to be on the test? How much will it matter for my grade?’ Those sorts of things make teaching a lot less fun.”

Still, other professors admired the drive premed students seem to possess—many of them

Monday

The explosions could be heard all over the city of about 300,000 Palestinians. Witnesses said troops fired shells at the house of Yusuf Mukdad, a Preventive Security officer arrested recently by the Israelis on suspicion of planning attacks against Israelis.

Mustafa Mughrabi, 45, lives near the Preventive Security base and told The Associated Press by telephone that he was hiding under a bed with his children after gunfire hit his house from three directions. Outside, he said he heard “the sound of explosions mixed with screams of children.”

Palestinian official Tayeb Abdel Rahim lives about 100 yards from the targeted base. He told the AP that his house was hit by bullets, but he was not harmed. He called the Israeli operation “aggression” and warned “security and stability for Israeli people cannot be achieved at the expense of the Palestinian people.”

So far Gaza has been spared the large-scale military operations in which Israel has taken control of most West Bank Palestinian population centers, retaliation for bloody terror attacks.

However, Israeli leaders said that militant groups operate unfettered in Gaza, and the Israeli military would confront them at some point. Meanwhile, Turkish police were interrogating a passenger who officials say tried to hijack an El A1 Israel Airlines plane just before landing in Istan-

biology].”

Although some professors may be frustrated with the pressure pre-med students place on their grading, pre-med biology majors have had mixed reactions from their teachers on their expected career choice.

In senior Elizabeth Paulk’s experience, she has met professors who “have encouraged [her] interest in medicine and others who have expressed distaste that so many people go into medicine.”

“Sometimes I get [disapproving] glimpses from professors,” said senior Susan Rickard.

Professors said their colleagues might recommend the option of attending graduate school instead of medical school, particularly to students who are involved and evidently skilled in undergraduate research. Most believe there is an obligation to heighten student awareness about such alternatives.

“Working in a research-oriented setting, I’m sure there are people whorecommend the option of research as opposed to medical school,” said Daniel Livingstone, James B. Duke professor of biology.

“Students coming into the University have a limited background of experience—they’ve heard about all the traditional professions like medicine and law. When people come to college they should open their eyes and have their view of the world enlarged a bit.”

Professors also added that they would not pressure students into veering off one career path to

bul with 170 people on board.

El A1 general manager Amos Shapira told the AP that the passenger, an Israeli Arab, “tried to reach the cockpit with what we assume now is a small pocket knife,” but was overpowered by security guards.

The airline is known for its stringent security; though it is frequently targeted, the last successful attack was decades ago. Shapira said airport authorities would investigate how the passenger managed to board the plane with a knife.

Though serious incidents of violence were occurring every day, and Israel was at the beginning of a fierce campaign toward a general election on Jan. 28, diplomats were still finding time to fine-tune a document aimed at negotiating a settlement to the Israel-Palestin-

follow another.

“They might talk to them seriously about it, open other prospects to students,” said Bruce Nicklas, A.S. Pearse professor of biology. “I think we would be failing in our obligations to them if we didn’t.”

Paulk agreed that despite meeting negative sen-

timent, she did not feel her professors had tried to influence her decision. “When I was talking to a professor, he encouraged me to keep my options open,” she said. “He told me that medicine could be the easy path to take, but I didn’t feel he really tried to persuade me.”

BIGGEST PARTIES!

The Chronicle

PAGE 12 � MONDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2002

SAE from page 3 Yardley, a senior. “We have more fun with less things to worry about off campus.”

Many members agreed that the

shifting concentration of social activities to off-campus locations for both official and unofficial fraternities has benefited their group.

“We don’t really have section parties on campus, but [other fraternities’ oncampus parties] are not just as successful as they used to be,” Brown said.

Conrad Gordon, a sophomore who accepted a membership bid from SAE last year after it decided to dissolve, said he misses having a residential section to call his own, but agreed that SAE has suffered few setbacks from not being able to host traditional section parties on campus.

“I haven’t really been to on-campus fraternity parties [this year],” Gordon said. “I don’t really feel like I’ve missed out on anything on campus.”

Although off-campus parties could pose potential dangers, such as increased drinking and driving risks and decreased security presence by the University, Brown said off-campus party sites make his brothers more responsi-

ble for their actions.

“Last year, when we were recognized as an on-campus fraternity, if a certain member was to go out and break something or do something destructive, they could escape punishment, and it could be blamed on the fraternity,” Brown said. “Obviously that’s not possible anymore.... Instead of having a fraternity that is punished, it’s the individuals that are punished.”

Some SAE brothers pointed out that a fraternity’s on-campus presence helps

attract potential members. Even though this year many SAE sophomores

blocked together in Crowell Quad, they said they are restricted when they want to show students that SAE is still a legitimate group.

Some freshmen said the fraternity’s off-campus parties can be better than those on campus.

“I’ve had more fun at most [of the offcampus parties] than the on-campus parties,” said freshman Charles Benzyk.

“Some ofthe best parties I’ve been to this year have been with SAE.” Members of some officially-recognized fraternities said they are concerned that SAE can interact with freshmen during the fall semester without following any of recruitment rules that IFC groups must follow. Members of SAE said, however, that the additional interaction can only benefit the recruitment process, and that their spring rush schedule will be much like that for IFC fraternities.

‘What it gives people is more time to figure out if we’re the fraternity for them,” said Yardley, who added that SAE can also more effectively find freshmen who closely fit with their group.

Some freshmen said that SAE’s status as a dissolved fraternity could negatively impact their decision to rush the group.

“It makes them less attractive to rush with them, but if I really like the fraternity, it wouldn’t prevent me from rushing,” said freshman Chris Champion.

Other freshmen said the trend of more fraternities moving off campus makes them more likely to consider rushing dissolved fraternities.

“At first I wasn’t really considering it because I wanted to be in a nationally-recognized fraternity,” Benzyk said. “But it seems like in the future, more and more fraternities will be going off campus, and I’m considering it a lot more.”

SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON may not have University housing or national affiliation, but it hopes to bring in one of the best pledge classes this spring.

ANDREA OLAND/THE CHRONICLE

\

Under the 1994 deal, North Korea agreed to freeze its plutonium facilities suspected of being used to develop nuclear weapons in return for two lightwater reactors and 500,000 tons of oil every year until the reactors were built.

But in September, the North acknowledged to visiting U.S. diplomats

that it had a uranium-enriching program to develop nuclear weapons.

North Korea says the United States violated the accord first, citing delays in the reactor project.

Pyongyang has said it will only resolve the issue if the United States offers a nonaggression pact. Washington has rejected any talks with Pyongyang unless it gives up the nuclear weapons program.

More than 8,500 Durham children need a holiday meal.

Duke let off easy A court decision to throw out punitive damages in the Heather Sue Mercer case should serve as a reminder of the importance of Title IX

Two

years after the University was assessed punitive damages of $2 million for discriminating against Heather Sue Mercer—a woman who tried out for a position as placekicker on the football team in 1995—based on her gender, the U.S.

Court ofAppeals has overturned those punitive damages.

Basing their judgment largely on a recent Supreme Court decision, Barnes v, Gorman —which ruled against allowing the assessment of punitive damages under other non-discrimination laws like the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Civil Rights Act of 1964—the court declared that punitive damages could not be awarded to Mercer under Title IX. Because of the Supreme Court precedent, it is unsurprising the U.S. Court ofAppeals ruled as it did, but nevertheless it is somewhat disappointing that the University will not be further punished for its discriminatory policies.

However, the appeals court was perfectly clear that although it was overturning the punitive damage award, it was not overturning the early judgment against Duke that the University indeed was guilty of gender-based discrimination.

Disappointingly, however, the University has yet to admit its guilt and has not apologized for its actions. It should do so as soon as possible.

The importance ofTitle IX as an institution can hardly be overstated—women and men should both be given an equal shot in athletics, and the most skilled person, whether male or female, should be selected to teams. Fortunately, the University in general complies well with Title IX, in terms of offering scholarships, sports and spending money on women’s athletics.

Moreover, the lasting impact of the Mercer case will not be some monetary award, but rather the blemish it placed on the University. There has been intense media attention and the University has had to deal with the embarrassment accompanying the case, in addition to shouldering legal fees. Even though the appeals court has overturned the punitive damages, the University is not escaping scot-free and hopefully it will not put itself into similar situations in the future.

On

the record

It is all about how many programs a school has. Stanford has at least 10 more sports than we sponsor They put a lot of emphasis on sports that give them a lot of standing in the Sears Cup—like swimming—hut that no one in the University cares about. [Winning a Sears Cup] is a level of size, not a level ofexcellence.

Housing situation unbearable in House W basement annoying sounds of construetion have forced me to sacrifice my sleep, and continue to break my chain of thought as I type this letter.

This is just one of the many problems my roommate and I have to put up with while living in the basement of House W. This has been an issue ever since the semester began, be it drilling, hammering or just

the sounds of vehicles moving. This is compounded by the fact that the basement gets insanely hot for most part ofthis semester, leaving us with no choice but to leave the window open, which obvi-

Oh yes, if the construction doesn’t get you this one will, even if you have ear plugs plugged into every orifice in your body.

It will suffice to say that we have been ripped off, and if the administration has even the slightest shred of decency,' they will not charge us for room and board. For all you freshmen reading this letter, you better start praying that your housing assignment for next year doesn’t read House W 001.

Letter shows moderate Muslims shirk responsibility Sadaf Raja's sarcastic, dismissive response to Dr. Bala Ambati’s column does an excellent job, not ofrefuting Ambati’s claims, but of proving

his

point.

of all stripes have a responsibility to combat pernicious radicalism within their communities, a responsibility tragically shirked by many Muslims.

As Muslim Student Association co-president, Raja should be leading the charge at Duke.

But instead of questioning radical Islam for its role Moderates

in fomenting hate and violence, or even engaging Ambati in a sincere discussion, Raja misrepresents Ambati’s argument. Ambati explicitly discusses the KKK as a non-Muslim terror group, so he clearly does not believe that Islam lies at the root of all terror, as Raja claims. By cunningly shifting the issue, Raja frees himself to deliver one-sided condemnations of Israel, Russia, India and the United States—predominantly non-Muslim nations mired in violent conflicts

with some Muslims.

That Raja sympathizes

with Muslim victims of violence is admirable; that he excuses Muslim perpetrators of violence is unconscionable. The oft-repeated claim that Islam means peace remains a hollow public relations slogan until the day Muslim men and women of integrity challenge the powerful violent

factions and reclaim control of the future of Islam.

intrusion into residential life What the hell is that noise? I’m trying to write my overdue article at three in the morning after a fun Saturday night and the most obnoxious voice I have ever heard has taken up residence in my hallway. Great, it is getting closer; wait, this is interesting, “That is Bill English’s room? I hate Bill English.”

Hmm. Another admirer. They usually don’t come this close to where I sleep, though. “I haaate Bill English”—Real cute, take a number. You’re somewhere behind Karla Holloway, half the administration, the entire faculty of the Women’s Studies Program and a lot of other people who get paid too much for what they do. Rip, tear, tear. That sounds a lot like the on-call schedule I have posted on my door. That’s unfortunate; some residents might need that information. “Bill English can die and go to hell.” Eventually die, yes, but not the hell part, I hope. I’m sure she is just drunk and blowing off some steam. Ah good, some friends are taking her away, now to get back to why Campus Council is acting stupid and screwing over students.

Oh joy, here she comes again, and I think she just kicked my door. Time to see what this chick looks like; boy peepholes are great. Whoever said girls are cute when they are angry, though, couldn’t be more wrong. Hmm look at this—she just spilled beer on my door.

Wack! There goes the full can. By this point I have gathered from the friends who are trying to get her to stop what her first name is. This is still rather amusing, but I should get back to my column. Ha, she just told one of her friends that she is a women’s studies major and that is why she hates me.

Poor girl is probably oppressed. Too bad I don’t know what that feels like.

Now she is calling my name asking me to “come out here.” Though nothing, and I mean nothing, would please me more than speaking my mind to this b-—, her being drunk and me being sober, I would probably be accused of

sexual assault.

Guys try this—get liquored up and go over to the room of some random girl you don’t like at 3 a.m., shout expletives at her and tell her she should die, vandalize her door, and tell her to come out and fight you. Keep pounding and throwing things at the door until your friends take you away.

Then, tell me with a straight face that the powers that be at this University wouldn’t destroy you.

Harassment, vandalism, noise violations, I really have no hard feelings, but now I don’t have the space or time to explain what a bunch ofliberal nincompoops these House Council people are. I can’t relate their therapeutic desire to subject everything to administrative control to the similarly ridiculous attempts of politicians who want to “fingerprint” all the guns in America and justice department officials who want the unbridled power to wiretap phones.

The campus resolution still might pass, and unconvinced of their errors these students may try something similarly awful in a position of real power some day. The moral of this story: hate-filled women’s studies majors and unexamined Campus Council members are hazardous to my privacy. Someone should put a leash on both. I’m going to bed Bill English is a Trinity senior. His column appears every other Monday.

THE SECOND GUNMAN gets fraternal “The art of flying is to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”

—Douglas Adams WARNING: The names and faces of this column have not been changed. If you join a fraternity, you may be eligible to receive collective administrative enemas before you graduate. Freshman guys, it’s time 1* to start thinking about rushing fraternities. This should not sway '

you in any way. Like those 900 THE SECOND numbers, this is for entertain- GUNMAN ment purposes only.

7.0,1 . w . y 0 y It all started so innocently. I picked ' ' up my Monday issue ofThe Chronicle looking forward to news of Daryl Strawberry’s most recent cocaine bust and maybe an easy early-week crossword. Then I saw what could be the biggest news break this year: The fraternity system at our school is in hot doodoo.

I found this fraternity news very hard to believe, but this brilliant investigative journalism is precisely why I read The Chronicle each Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10:30 to 11:20, and each Tuesday and Thursday from 10:55 to 12:10. On a side note, I feel that 75-minute classes are the main reason behind the recent move of Recess from Friday to Thursday. This allows some of Duke’s more resourceful students to keep up with pop culture, complete the crossword puzzle and ignore their professors, all in one sitting.

Unless you’ve been paying attention to more important things—Halle Berry, Halle Berry, Blazing Sea Nuggets or Halle Berry—you have probably noticed that the Duke admin is cracking down big time in the fraternity fun area. Most pledge tasks are now considered hazing, which is illegal. Fraternities found guilty risk losing their charter. This falls directly in line with the admin-

istration’s master plan to “not push fraternities off campus.” I just contradicted myself. I didn’t mean to; it’s Nan and Larry’s fault. I merely report the facts. Again I digress. Among other things, Duke’s administration has

blamed fraternity hazing for the West Campus sidewalk drainage problem, Bill Bung’s receding hairline, Larry Moneta, Trent, Curriculum 2000, smoking in residence halls, the residence hall smoking ban, Dunleavy’s early departure and the waning lemur population.

Oh yeah, frats. The school’s biggest beef with them regards a process called “hazing.” The allegations are as follows: each spring, fraternities across campus (or at least the ones with double digit pledge classes) force their incoming freshmen to perform “pledge tasks,” which often result in “public humiliation,” “physical discomfort” and/or “booting.” People may ask why these pledge tasks go on, so here’s a little background info.

Fraternities want to make membership in their organization appealing. One way to go about this is to make earning membership a challenge. Flounder was proud to be a Delta. Your older brother is not proud to be a member of Hair Club for Men. Get it?

Thought so.

This year’s biggest fraternity blooper happened in Edens 18, formerly Kappa Sigma, where a brother fell out of a second story window while relieving himself.

That’s what he gets for breaking the seal, I guess.

THE SECOND GUNMAN was driving the ambulance that night, a situation that yielded this quote from the fallen soldier. “Grandpa always told me that ifI peed on myself, I would dissolve. I didn’t realize that he meant my fraternity. Regardless, we plan to adopt that as our new motto. Kappa Sig: We pissed through the window and Dean Adams pissed back.’”

The skinny: frats spend fall semester trying to keep freshman guys from drinking their beer. In January, they choose a few that they like, then spend spring semester forcing the beer down their throats. This

ensures that they get members who a) want to join for more than just good housing, 2) can drink large quantities of beer and d) can run 10 miles before 6 a.m. without dropping to their knees like Michael Jackson at a NAMBLA convention. The guys who can do this are the future baseball cap wearing legends of your college stories. You know the stories that feature drinking as an agent of natural selection. I see nothing wrong with this system. The administration does.

Here’s my argument. The new kids on the block (no, I’m not getting nostalgic) often find themselves at the mercy of those who preceded them. In the workforce, undesirable tasks are often handed out to the newbie, even at Duke. Want an example? Last spring, Duke rookie Larry Moneta won the unenviable task of informing the Alphas that they would be moving to Edens as part of an effort to diversify Main West Campus.

Yeah. Now ask yourself, is that worse than having to eat an entire jar of Mt. Olive Pickles in the Allen building?

With these new hazing rules in place, on-campus fraternities will continue to disappear faster than cold Bud after an AA meeting. West Campus weekend fun will be restricted to watching idiot freshman guys perform pledge tasks. No, those will be gone too. I guess everybody will just have to drink on their respective benches. No wait, sophomores are all underage. Wow, if I didn’t know any better, I would think that the campus social scene would reach an all-time low. Lucky for

me, I’ll be studying abroad next semester. And by that I mean drinking with Dukies, only it will be in Italy and not on East Campus.

Ciao!

Like all good things, THE SECOND GUNMAN’S reign of terror must come to an end. E-mail ksrs@duke.edu ifyou are interested in filling these shoes.
