Scott quits

Durham top cop job The resignation of Douglas Scott, set to become police chief, means Interim Chief Steve Chalmers may get the position.

By RYAN WILLIAMS The Chronicle

Durham is once again lacking a permanent police chief after the latest nominee for the job, Douglas Scott, announced Thursday that he would no longer accept it.

Scott, currently an assistant inspector general with the U.S. Department ofthe Interior and former police chief of Fairfax, Va., e-mailed a letter to City Manager Marcia Conner Wednesday explaining that he would not take the position as Durham chief ofpolice. His reasons for declining the offer included what he considered inadequate health insurance coverage and the turmoil surrounding the city manager’s office, The Associated Press reported. Conner called Scott around 6 a.m. Thursday and told him that the City Council was still trying to work out a deal, but Scott did not change his mind.

City Council Member Lewis Cheek explained the primary reason Scott will See CHIEF TROUBLES on page 10

CAMPUS COUNCIL MEMBERS vote Thursday night on a resolution recommending security cameras at dorm entrances. The measure, which provoked heated campus discussion for the past week, failed by an 8-5 margin.

Campus Council rejects cameras

By ROBERT MORRIS The Chronicle

After a prolonged discussion of a

controversial

resolution recommending installation of security cameras at dorm entrances, Campus Council voted down the recommendation by a 8-5 vote Thursday night, citing doubt of the cameras’ effectiveness.

“Most people want to do something about sexual assault but think cameras were not the way,” said Few Quadrangle representative Jacob

Flomenberg, a sophomore The idea that most sexual assault is perpetrated by members of the Duke community played a primary role in the discussions.

“We can’t keep blaming sexual assault on people coming on campus to attack us,” West-Edens Link representative Pasha Majdi said.

Many representatives agreed, claiming that since dorms are largely connected, cameras would do little to help identify perpetrators of sexual assault.

While many West Campus representatives felt their quads were evenly divided or opposed to security cameras, East Campus representatives had differing views.

“East Campus is overwhelmingly in favor of cameras,” said Alexandra Oliveira, East Campus Council representative.

However, ECC’s other representative, Chris Kallmeyer, took a more reSee CAMERA DEBATE on page 14

Officials catch U.S.S. Cole mastermind

By JOHN LUMPKIN The Associated Press

WASHINGTON U.S. counterterrorism officials are interrogating a newly captured top operative of Osama bin Laden in hopes of gaining information that might thwart terrorist attacks.

Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, al Qaeda’s chief of operations for the Persian Gulf and a suspected mastermind of the USS Cole bombing in October 2000, was taken in an undisclosed foreign country during the last several weeks.

The Saudi is now in U.S. custody, U.S. government officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity. Officials declined to comment on the circumstances of his capture.

He is probably the highest-ranking lieutenant of bin Laden seized since the March capture of Abu Zubaydah, al Qaeda’s chief coordinator of terrorist cells around the globe.

However, the capture of al-Nashiri did little to quell fears of a resurgent al Qaeda that is plotting new terrorist attacks.

Since last week, U.S. officials had said a senior al Qaeda leader had been caught, but they had declined to identify him. On Sunday, Homeland Security Director Tom Ridge said the prisoner was providing information to his interrogators.

The questioning of other senior figures, such as Abu Zubaydah and Omar al-Farouq, bin Laden’s Southeast Asia operations chief, have provided a wealth of information—often of unknown reliability—of planned terrorist operations. Their words have led to several public alerts in the last year.

In the Cole attack, U.S. officials have said al-Nashiri See AL QAEDA on page 10

Retirement tops full Academic Council meeting Black faculty initiative meets goal ahead of schedule, provost tells meeting of faculty senate

By ANDREW COLLINS The Chronicle Academic Council got back to business after celebrating its 40th anniversary last month, packing Thursday’s meeting

with presentations on retirement, black

faculty development and athletics.

Professor of Sociology Angela O’Rand presented the long-awaited report of tha Provost’s Committee on Retirement Policy, which concluded that the University should continue to approach retirement negotiations on a case-by-case basis, rather than develop a formally structured and uniformly applied plan.

“Retirement policies cannot be made in a vacuum,” O’Rand said. “To establish

some kind of universal retirement plan for the University quickly became a nonsensical option from the point of view of the committee. We’re small enough and varied enough that you really need that kind of sensitivity at the top, and thatkind of heavy hand doesn’t really work.”

Both O’Rand and Provost Peter Lange expressed some concern about the baby boom generation approaching

retirement age.

“Longer-term,” Lange said, “we may have some issues that may require us to pursue some more aggressive retire-

ment policies.”

The report also recommended subsidizing faculty financial planning.

O’Rand said she and Vice President for Human Resources Clint Davidson began meeting with financial services

firm TIAA-CREF to consider setting up a series of planning workshops.

But Lange said subsidizing retirement planning seemed to be an unwise allocation of resources.

He also offered a tempered response to the committee’s suggestions for possible emeritus benefits that included an administrative staff member for emeri-

tus faculty, fixed-period nonrenewable research accounts, Duke identification cards and computer accounts and highspeed Internet connections. Lange said most of the requests would not be workable given limited resources.

Following the unanimous approval of the retirement report, the council turned its attention to Lange for his annual progress report on black facul-

ty development.

He presented the anticipated news that the Black Faculty Strategic Initiative had reached its goal one year ahead of schedule. The BFSI, which began in 1993, aimed to double the number of black faculty members in University schools—excluding the School of Medicine and, until recently, the School of Nursing—from 44 to 88.

The total percentage of black faculty currently rests at 3.7 percent, which somewhat obscures variation among schools. The Divinity School is tops for black faculty, where black faculty occupy 15.2 percent of all positions. The Nicholas School of the Environment, by contrast, has not hired a single black faculty member since the BFSI went into effect.

“The Nicholas School, I have to admit, stands out as not having much success,” Lange said.

He also expressed concern about the declining number of black students matriculating into University doctorate programs. Total enrollment jumped in 2002, however, after dropping last year to its lowest point since 1994.

While Lange said he was pleased with the BFSI’s premature achievement, he

Advertising firm joins downtown development

By MELISSA SOUCY The Chronicle

The vision of a rejuvenated downtown Durham filled with shops, restaurants, luxury offices and residences now looks more hopeful since a national advertising agency committed Thursday to join the future American Tobacco Campus.

After five months of consideration, the firm McKinney & Silver signed a letter of intent to relocate its offices from the Fayetteville Street Mall in downtown Raleigh to the Bull Durham district.

Boasting a list of national clients that includes Audi ofAmerica, the NASDAQ Stock Market, Lands’ End and XO Communications, the company will find the new home it has been seeking in the new downtown industrial center, said Janet North, McKinney & Silver’s director of agency communications.

Joining three other prominent tenants—Duke University, Compuware and GlaxoSmithKline—the 32-year-old firm will bring 140 employees to the Reed Building, one of 12 warehouses in the one-million square-foot campus.

The company will have a 35,000 square-foot space custom designed to allow the agency to provide optimal creative services to its clients.

“Advertising firms don’t work in traditional office space anymore,” North said. “We require integration of thinking and collaboration. Multilevels of office space don’t work. “Overall the agency has been in about a three- to five-year hunt for the perfect space for McKinney,” she added. “Probably in late spring we were invited to come look and we were intrigued.

It is such a spectacular space.”

Officials from project developer Capitol Broadcasting Company, said they believe they have found a marketing asset in McKinney & Silver.

“There are several attractions [of McKinney & Silver],” said Peter Anlyan, general manager of CBC Durham Real Estate. “[McKinney & Silver is] a solid company, they’re creative, they fit the downtown renovated factory office space model. We also see a very

Renovation of the new office space is set to begin this February and officials are expecting the firm to relocate to Durham in May 2004 with the completion of the project’s first phase—the southern two-thirds of the campus. Anlyan said the end ofthis phase will create the opening of new office space, as well as a coffee shop, a deli and other restaurants yet to be named.

Additionally, 100,000 square feet of the first phase’s territory portion will be finished and remain

unclaimed. CBC is looking for more major tenants.

“We’re talking to a couple of other companies,” Anlyan said, adding that the project is still financially secure.

He said the second phase, including residential space and a hotel, is targeted for completion in 2006.

From the onset, officials expected the American Tobacco project to be worth $l6O million, contributing to long-term prosperity in both Durham and the entire Triangle area.

GOP gains promise to make N.C. assembly more lively Republicans hold the state House by 61-59 margin, slim Democrats’ Senate hold to 28-22

By JOSH NIMOCKS The Chronicle Reflecting a nationwide trend, North Carolina state elections saw Republican legislators take control of the state House by a 61-59 majority and narrow the Democrats’ margin of power in the state Senate.

In addition, Republican gains on both sides of the General Assembly may force legislators to adopt a more bipartisan law-making process, something the Democrats have not had to do in recent times, some ex-

perts said.

Over the 2001-2002 session, House Democrats held a.

62-58 margin. After election day, the House results showed a 60-60 split for the next session, but Republican candidate Louis Pate from Wayne County gave the Re-

publicans a simple majority when the following Friday’s updated vote totals were released, showing a win over House Majority Leader Philip Baddour.

Republicans narrowed the margin in the Senate from 35-15 to 28-22 and have hopes of supplanting President Pro Tempore Marc Basnight, a Democrat, with a new president pro tern, said Senate Minority Leader Patrick Ballantine.

Andrew Taylor, associate professor of political science at North Carolina State University, said there may not be enough Republicans in the Senate to give them a chance of replacing Basnight. “It’s much less likely that the Senate will have a leadership tussle,” he said.

Law students premiere N.C. death row art show

By KIYA BA JPAI The Chronicle

For her birthday this year, third-year

law student Kendra Montgomery-Blinn received a package in the mail last February containing two chalk drawings on folded handkerchiefs. One depicted a mouse in a field, and the other showed a mouse blowing out a candle and read “Have a wonderful day Kendra.”

This gift—from North Carolina death row inmate Randy Atkins —sparked something in Montgomery-Blinn, who had worked with Atkins since her internship at the Center for Death Penalty Litigation after her first year of law school. She and second-year law student Emily Marroquin, who worked with the Death Penalty Network at the law school over the past year, then transpired to create a ‘death row art show,’ which is now on display in the School of Law’s student lounge.

“It is important for us to see art like this,” said Jim Coleman, law professor and senior associate dean for academic affairs. “The people on death row are people—human beings.”

others in gratitude for their help. Booker has also set up a trust fund from the proceeds for his victim’s family.

Montgomery-Blinn and Marroquin wanted the show to be a catalyst for discussion about the death penalty rather than a specific statement on the death penalty itself. While they have received some criticism from other media sources comparing their show to a VHI program that paid inmates to sing about their crimes, Montgomery-Blinn and Marroquin said they just wanted to find an outlet for the beautiful artwork that so few people had seen. They also wanted to emphasize the attorneys and assistants who worked so hard for their clients for little or no money. “[This art show] is as much about the attorneys and what they’ve done as the

artists,” Montgomery-Blinn said. She added that the artwork—one of the only things an inmate can give—demonstrates the gratitude the inmates have for those

who have cared about them.

The artwork in the show includes poetry, cartoons, drawings and paintings.

LATCH aims to bring health care to Durham Latinos

By MIKE MILLER The Chronicle

To meet the needs of the rapidly increasing population of Latinos without

medical insurance, the Medical Center

has received a one-year, $835,911 grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to coordinate a comprehensive health care improvement program for uninsured Latinos in Durham County.

Through improved physical and

mental health services, as well as health education aimed at greater awareness of proper health care system use, Latino Access to Coordinated Healthcare intends to improve the overall health of a Latino population that increased 729 percent in Durham County between 1990 and 2000.

Currently, Latinos account for approximately 40 percent of the uninsured in Durham.

To plan and now implement LATCH, the Medical Center has partnered with Durham County and several local health care institutions.

Susan Epstein, chief of the division of community health and a coordinator

of the program, explained that one of the greatest obstacles for Latinos—many of whom have recently immigrated to the United States—is a lack of knowledge about how to utilize the health care system.

For example, many Latinos will only go to the emergency room because it is often the only option they know is available, Epstein said. “At Duke, there’s an enormous amount of care being given

to Latinos, but at the most expensive end,” she said. “We thought, ‘Let’s start at the Susan Epstein beginning.... Let’s teach them about the health care system. Let’s teach them how to take care of themselves.’”

With that in mind, the program will coordinate neighborhood outreach programs and initiate health education classes at El Centro Hispano, a health care

facility

partnered

through

LATCH that currently treats many Latinos. Social workers will also ensure that patients eligible for state Medicare benefits are receiving them.

To avoid common time conflicts with work, the program will fund a nighttime clinic for infectious disease testing at Lincoln Community Health Center,

another LATCH partner.

The program, which plans to begin enrolling patients in January 2003, also recognizes the need to overcome Latinos’ language barrier.

“The big majority of Latinos in Durham County are first-generation.

Spanish is their first language. They’re making an effort to learn the [English] language, but it doesn’t happen overnight,’,’ said Ivan Parra, executive director of El Centro Hispaho. “The services that Spanish-speaking peoples were receiving was clearly not up

to that of others.”

To meet this need, all staff hired

through LATCH will be bilingual, including a mental health social worker and a nurse practitioner for medical care, who will work at Lincoln. “What is significant is that these systems didn’t

exist before these projects,” Parra said.

“A lot of [the programs’ benefits] are services people usually take for granted, and that Latinos didn’t have access to. This program will make it possible for Latinos to get the same quality of health care as everyone else.”

Parra felt the program was a huge step forward for an underserved population. “This is clearly the largest and most comprehensive effort this county has had for Hispanics... in terms of medical care,” he said.

By emphasizing non-emergency room options, the program will also attempt to ease some of the stress placed upon Lincoln, which faces the brunt of the uninsured Latino population. Of the 33,000 different patients the center treated in 2001, 26 percent were Latinos, and the ratio has increased every year, said Evelyn Schmidt, executive director of Lincoln.

“Since the early ’9os, we’ve seen an increase in the number of Latinos getting care at Lincoln,” Schmidt said. “I think the outreach can really help the patients.... It’s important they learn how to use services in the community.”

N.C. NEWS THIS WEEK From staff and wire reports

Congress’ special session set to end Tuesday Although the General Assembly ad-

journed in October, the special session that began last spring to redraw the state’s district maps is just now reaching its end. Legislators agreed to terminate the lame-duck run session in which Democrats hoped to adjust voting districts favorably for their party before Republicans gained Congressional control. In the preceding months, GOP lawmakers filed protests and unsuccessfully attempted maneuvers designed to close the session down earlier, while the Democrats claimed the session needed to remain alive due to pending redistricting litigation.

Peanut farmers file federal suit North Carolina and Virginia peanut farmers have filed a federal lawsuit in protest of a contract change that cut crop insurance from 31 cents a pound to 17.75 cents a pound.

“The farming industry is getting hit in so many ways,” said Dan Boyce, a Raleigh lawyer who filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Raleigh. “We believe we have a very simple cause of action here.

It’s a simple breach of contract.”

The option for farmers to join the plaintiff’s side of the suit will remain open for a month, at the cost of $1 for every acre on which the farmer grows peanuts. The lawsuit filed Tuesday represents more than 400 farmers and 40,000 acres from across the sandy peanut belt in southeastern

Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. This year, as in others, farmers had a March 31 deadline to sign crop insurance contracts. Since the old farm bill was intact at the time, they were guaranteed 31 cents a pound, based on a price-support figure of about $6lO a ton.

When the new farm bill was signed in May, legislators in Washington changed the figure on the crop-insurance policies and reduced the payment to 17.75 cents a pound.

Anti-death penalty tour spans the state The People ofFaith Against the Death Penalty-sponsored tour—consisting of meetings in Wilmington, Fayetteville,

Raleigk, Charlotte and Greensboro—-

began Wednesday night in Kinston, N.C. Although partly a rally, the meeting provided therapy for relatives of one of two men condemned to die this month. Supporters of Ernest Basden, sentenced to death for his role in a 1992 shotgun slaying as part of a murder-for-hire plot, said that he is a changed man and does not deserve execution.

“We never said that my brother didn't deserve punishment,” said Rose Clark, one of Basden’s four sisters. “But we never

said he didn’t deserve equal treatment,

which he didn’t get.”

Basden's lawyers have said he received a much harsher punishment than two others in the case who received prison sentences and could be released in several years. His lawyers said the 49-year-old Jones County man was lured into a murder plot by the promise of drugs and did

After the state tour’s first stop, Stephen Dear, executive director of PFADP, said the tour gives people “a rare opportunity to meet and hear compelling messages from the families” of the condemned men.

Bacteria outbreak hits elementary school children Health officials said Thursday they are trying to control the spread of a bacteria that has made about 200 people sick in three counties. Shigellosis—a disease transmitted when infected fecal matter is transmitted from an infected person to the mouth of another person by direct contact with food or objects—has infected 200 people, most under the age of nine, in Cumberland, Hoke and Robeson counties. Symptoms include diarrhea, vomiting, headache, fever and stomach cramps, although there are pre-

scribable antibiotics.

“What happens is usually it gets started in a daycare center,” said Dr. Jeff Engle, chief of the state’s communicable disease control branch. “These kids get sick, they go home... and give it to older siblings,” he said.

State and county health officials and representatives of Fort Bragg advised that daycare workers wear gloves while changing diapers, infected children stay out of school and daycare and other students wash their hands properly. Health department officials will also conduct random surveys at daycare centers to ensure compliance with hygiene rules.

gave telephone orders to the bombers from the United Arab Emirates and may have provided money to the plotters. He went to Afghanistan after the bombing, which killed 17 sailors.

Born in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, al-Nashiri is believed to be in his mid-30s, officials said.

“He has a reputation as a ruthless operator,” said one U.S. official. “He is a very committed fol-

lower of Osama bin Laden.”

Al-Nashiri oversaw the purchase and transport of explosives, the leasing of safe houses and the planning and financing of at-

tacks, officials said.

He has also traveled under a number of other names, including Umar Mohammed al-Harazi and

Abu Bilal al-Makki.

U.S. officials believe he was in Ghazni, Afghanistan, around the time the war began there in October 2001. He is thought to have

moved to Pakistan when the Taliban fell, and he may have gone to Yemen in recent months. Some tribesmen in Yemen, however, said he had gone to Malaysia.

In addition to the Cole attack, al-Nashiri is suspected of helping direct the August 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Bar es Salaam, Tanzania. He recruited his cousin, Azzam, to train in Afghanistan and serve as one of the suicide bombers in the attack on the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi, officials said.

ASSEMBLY from page 5 joined the Republicans, and they ran the state House.”

In addition to nursing such a slim majority, Republicans will also have to deal with a Democratic governor. Governor Mike Easley’s agenda is more liberal than what most Republicans want, Taylor said. “He’ll be coming up for his re-election soon,” Taylor said. “He’ll want to make sure he can show that there is some accomplishment, and that he can deliver on his agenda.”

To aid him in that mission, Easley has at his disposal a method available only to him and previous governor Jim Hunt—veto power passed by a referendum five years ago. Easley exercised the authority for the first time ever earlier this month to strike down a bill designating dozens of appointments to boards and commissions.

“He signed it the Sunday before the election and didn’trelease it to the public until after the election,” Beyle said of the controversial veto decision.

Ted Arrington, professor of political science at the University ofNorth Carolina at Charlotte, said that as a former attorney—Easley served as Attorney General before his election as governor in 2000—Easley is not used to the give-and-take ofthe legislative arena.

“Nationally, policy experts agree that a veto means the president has lost,” Arrington said. “[The vetol means he didn’t influence the legislative

process enough.”

Taylor predicted that even before any bills reach the governor, there will be large legislative battles in Raleigh next year. “There’ll be plenty going on and plenty of fireworks,” he said.

DEATH ROW ART from page 6 may and/ dejection,” he wrote.

Ricky Lee Sanderson, who was executed Jan. 30, 1998, drew “Portrait on the Eve of My Execution,” a simple picture of a gray-haired man with sad blue eyes, which he dedicated to his lawyer.

“It’s overwhelming to stand here and see [the art],” said Cindy Adcock, a senior lecturing fellow at the law school. ‘The art evokes something within yourself, causes you to ask questions.”

Adcock is currently working on the appeal for Ernest Basden, whose execution is scheduled for Dec. 6. Speaking at the opening reception, she displayed a card drawn by Basden with five roosters that read “Duke’s Starting Five” in order to make fun of the rival of his favorite team, the University of North Carolina Tar Heels. Adcock condemned the death penalty for its arbitrary nature. “[Basden’s] case typifies the problems of the system,” she said. “If he were to be tried today, he

2002 � PAGE 9

would [only] have a life sentence.”

Tyrone Wallace, whose brother is scheduled to be executed on Dec. 10, is traveling around North Carolina with Basden’s family to raise consciousness about the death penalty. After participating in a rally Wednesday outside of the Duke University Chapel, Wallace came to see the show.

“People that are behind the wall are ‘thrown away,’” Wallace said. “It means a lot to know that people care who are on the outside.”

The art show, which will be up until mid-December, consists of nearly 100 pieces from about 20 different people. The inmates all created the work while on death row; since then, three have been executed, three died of natural causes and five were given a life sentence. All of the pieces were gifts to lawyers and friends.

Montgomery-Blinn and Marroquin are happy with the way the show turned out and hope to find some way for the show to travel. “It has been a lot of work for Emily and 1... but it was important enough for us to see it done,” Montgomery-Blinn said.

DAVE INGRAM/THE CHRONICLE

MARCIA CONNER (RIGHT), DURHAM CITY MANAGER, introduces Douglas Scott as the new police chief at a City Council session earlier this month.

City Council members said Thursday that they did not know when police officers would have a new boss.

CHIEF TROUBLES

«

not be Durham’s next police chief is that the health insurance provided by the city government falls short of the federal government’s insurance coverage. As a current employee of the federal government, Scott and his family will continue to be covered under a group health insurance plan after he retires, while the city can make no such promises.

Since a member of Scott’s family has a particularly expensive medical condition, he wanted the optimal coverage.

“It might have been possible to [work out a solution), but not in the time frame Doug Scott was comfortable

with,” Cheek said. “He wanted more than we can guarantee at this point.”

In addition, Scott told The Associated Press that recent problems between Conner and the City Council also contributed to his decision. Conner was reprimanded by the City Council Tuesday because she breached policy in granting city contracts. The Council cut her pay and must now approve every contract she signs.

Cheek said he did not know who would become police chief, but that Conner, who controls the selection process, is considering current Interim Police Chief Steve Chalmers. However, Chalmers was once selected as a candidate for the position and then rejected

EXPRESS^— YOURSELF

because of controversy surrounding allegations of domestic violence. The search firm doing a background check on Chalmers said he lied when he contended that he was never charged with domestic abuse. Chalmers said the firm had asked him if he was ever convicted of domestic abuse, and he truthfully said no.

Kansas City Police Chief Gregory Watkins was also removed from the running in August due to allegations of domestic abuse in his past.

Cheek said it was within the city manager’s authority to order a new search, though Durham has been without a permanent police chief for nearly ten months.

He will conclude his trip with a speech in Romania Saturday.

U.S. officials downplayed the vague wording of the NATO statement on Iraq, which stated that NATO “allies,” rather than the NATO alliance as a whole, are united on the issue of Iraq’s need to comply with U.N. inspections.

“The alliance made this very powerful statement,” National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice said. “It is really too early to talk about what military action will be needed or what military contributions might be needed.

“The important thing right now is that this is, along with the U.N. Security Council resolution, a strong statement to the Iraqis that the world is united in the demand that Iraq disarm,” she said.

Bush said he was very pleased by the NATO expansion. The alliance accepted plans to add seven new member nations: Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and three Baltic states, Estonia, Latvia and Lithua-

nia, which were once considered un-

touchable by NATO since they were

part of the Soviet Union.

In Russia, Bush will thank Putin for clearing the way for NATO’s expansion and stress the view that NATO is now a partner with Russia.

CAMERA DEBATE from page 1 served view. “Whenever we talked to someone, people’s first reaction is that they don’t like cameras, but after we talk to them, they support it,” he said.

Ray Rodriguez, coordinator for health promotion and student health at the Healthy Devil, presented both sides of the issue but ultimately pointed to the need for a change in campus attitude toward sexual assault.

Although he agreed that installing cameras would send a positive message, he also made clear that “the sexual assaults that could be stopped by the cameras [would be] a minority.”

Rodriguez said sexual assault happens every weekend at Duke but cited Monday’s all-male discussion about sexual assault in Wannamaker Quadrangle as an example of changing campus attitudes toward the issue.

“Most of the discussion tonight seems to imply

some educational stuff that needs to happen,” Rodriguez said.

After moving to consider the campus safety resolution and the security camera issue separately, Campus Council passed the less controversial portion by a vote of 13-2.

This part of the resolution included recommenda-

tions for Duke Card bathroom access, increased activity by the SafeWalks program, better lighting across campus and increased availability and promotion of self-defense classes.

After the meeting, council members defended the decision to vote against security cameras.

“I just don’t know if there’s enough proof that they would be effective,” said council member Brandon Jamison, a junior.

The council also unanimously passed a resolution concerning sexual assault and harassment. The resolution primarily addresses acquaintance rape and recommends new, small-scale resident adviser-led awareness programs for freshmen; the compilation of

Duke-specific statistics about sexual assault; and a review of judicial procedures in sexual assault cases.

“We definitely want to do something [about sexual assault],” said Gerald Oliver, council secretary.

“We’re still in the process of figuring out what that something is.”

Student response to the council’s decision has been mixed, although students primarily responded to threats to their privacy by increased surveillance.

“It’s probably the better decision,” said sophomore Abigail Weliver. “Although [cameras] might have given us some sense of comfort at this time, it’s really just an invasion of privacy.”

“I’m not a fan of Big Brother,” agreed sophomore Michaela Kerrissey.

Some students, however, said the potential bene-

fits of cameras outweighed the risks.

“Security cameras would have been okay,” said sophomore David Hsu. “It’s not that much of an invasion of privacy if they’re just on the quad,” he added.

Duke tackles UNC No. 1 Duke fights Tenn. in rivalry matchup Nation’s best 2 teams preview March at Jimmy V � Duke tries to win back the Victory Bell for the first time in 12 years in a game that will determine last place in the ACC.

By NICK CHRISTIE The Chronicle

In 1989, the bowl-bound Duke football team annihilated arch-rival North Carolina 41-0.

It was the final year of Steve Spurrier’s triumphant threeyear reign in Durham, and when Spurrier took off to the University of Florida, he took his undefeated record against the Tar Heels with him. The Blue Devils hope to exclude the prefix of baker in front of their wretched losing streak to North Carolina Saturday at noon at Wallace Wade Stadium.

In the last 12 years, no team other than the perennially State powerful Florida Seminoles has dominated Duke over the past decade like archrival North Carolina. The last time Duke kept the margin of defeat under 22 points was in 1996. During current Duke head coach Carl Franks’ three-

year tenure the Blue Devils have been outscored 149-38.

Despite the Tar Heel’s recent supremacy, the 2002 Blue Devils are eagerly anticipating Saturday’s season finale. Both schools possess identical 2-9 records, including 0-7 marks in conference, and Duke badly wants a victory.

“Right now everybody’s real excited to get out and play,” said sophomore quarterback Adam Smith. “I think a lot of people are feeling like me that Saturday can’t come quick enough. We want to get out there and show everybody—we want In play the best game of the year.”

Adding to Blue Devils’ enthusiasm are North Carolina’s glaring vulnerabilities. Defensively, UNC doesn’t even look like a shadow of its former self. With standouts like Julius Peppers and Ryan Sims gone to the NFL, the Tar Heels are dead last in the ACC in total defense, and are giving up 465 yards per game. UNC allows 229 rushing yards alone, which should allow the Blue Devils’ successful running duo See FOOTBALL on page 21

Since 1995, the Jimmy V Men’s Basketball Classic has helped raise nearly $450,000 for the V Foundation for Cancer Research in honor of the late Jim Valvano, the legendary North Carolina State Basketball Coach and ESPN broadcaster who lost his battle with cancer in 1993 at age 47.

The annual four-team tournament has become one of the most competitive in men’s college basketball, and this year, for the first time, the women will hold their own version of this charitable event.

The inaugural Jimmy V Women’s Basketball Classic will be held Sunday at the RBC Center in Raleigh and will feature three teams from last year’s NCAA Final Four.

In the first game, No. 1 Duke will battle No. 2 Tennessee, followed by No. 6 Connecticut against North Carolina State.

“It is an honor for all of us to be involved in the inaugural Jimmy V Classic,” Duke head coach Gail Goestenkors said.

Duke looks to be crowned king of collegiate men’s soccer world for the first time in 16 years when it starts the NCAA tournament against No. 25 William & Mary at 6 p.m. tonight at

Koskinen Stadium.

The Blue Devils are coming off a rare drought from the postseason, as the program struggled through 2001 to

former coaching grounds.

Army graduated eight players last year and could possibly start four players who have never been on the court for an NCAA tip-off. Duke also lacks experience, but its superior quickness and athleticism should overpower the Black Knight’s presence on the court. Junior Nick Horvath, who looks to see a more prominent role this year, said he thinks the Blue Devils’ depth will be displayed in Saturday’s contest.

Barkley pays piper

Wakerville High defeated Lakeshore Public Academy 115-2 in a varsity girls basketball playoff game. Laskeshore athletic director complained of poor sportsmanship.

It will be a game time decision if Shaquille O’Neal makes his season debut against Chicago, Friday. O’Neal has been recovering from surgery on his arthritic big toe.

Former Duke players Mike Dunleavyand Jay Williams may be reunited as Chicago Bulls. Rumor has Dunleavy being traded to the Bulls, though GM Jerry Krause denies the story.

NBA analyst Charles Barkley promised to kiss the buttocks of colleague Kenny Smith if Houston Rockets center Yao Ming scored over 19 points in a game. Ming netted 30 Thursday night.

Also dangerous for the Lady Vols in 6foot-2 sophomore forward Shyra Ely, who

“More than anything we feel honored to be invited and included. We are looking forward to a great weekend.”

The Blue Devils, ranked No. 1 for the

first time in school history, will have a chance for revenge against six-time NCAA Champion Tennessee, which defeated Duke 89-68 in the ACC-SEC Challenge last December. However, such a challenging early-season contest will not allow Goestenkors the luxury of easing her five freshmen into Duke’s system.

“Tennessee is a great team and I don’t know if we are ready for that with the five freshmen we have,” Goestenkors said. “They are going to be thrown into the fire. I’m not sure what to expect, but I’m hoping for the best. You never know what is going to happen with freshmen once they get on the floor.”

Duke will have to contend with a strong Tennessee squad that has already handily defeated No. 23 Oklahoma, a Final Four team from last season.

The Lady Vols are led by senior

Naismith candidates Gwen Jackson and Kara Lawson. The duo combined for 39 points in Tennessee’s victory over Duke last year, and they teamed up for 41 points in their opener against the Sooners.

averaged 9.3 points and 5.4 rebounds per game during her freshman campaign.

Jackson, Lawson and Ely lead the Lady Vols’ new motion offense that

allows them to showcase their skilled three-point shooters, penetrators and post players. The revamped system also helps Tennessee dominate on the boards, something that has become a trademark of head coach Pat Summit’s teams.

“We have to do an awesome job on the boards because Tennessee is such an incredible offensive rebounding teamf Duke senior tri-captain Sheana Mosch said. “Every time they shoot the ball they have four or five people crashing the boards extremely hard. We just have to make sure every time a shot goes up we’re blocking out so they don’t get 17 offensive boards like they did last year against us.”

Mosch’s role will be particularly key for Duke after Monique Curry, who averaged 14.3 points per game as a

freshman last season, tore her anterior cruciate ligament in the team’s first preseason game and will be lost for the season. Mosch will replace Curry in the starting lineup against Tennessee.

“The biggest thing that I have to step up with is my rebounding because [Monique! was such an incredible

FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 22. 2002 � PAGE 17

rebounder for us,” Mosch said. “She would get three or four offensive boards

for us every game.”

Even without Curry, the Blue Devils should be able to match-up well against an experienced Tennessee team that returns nine players from last season.

Duke’s offense will likely rely heavily on Naismith candidates Iciss Tillis and Alana Beard, whose versatile games could present problems for Tennessee defenders.

Beard, who dreamed of playing basketball for Tennessee as a kid, has added strength and range to her game and should be even more difficult to contain than she was in the teams’ 2001 meeting, when she connected for 18 points, seven assists and four steals.

“We’re going to have to execute and stay patient against Tennessee,” Beard said. “I think as a team we’re ready to play them some we can learn what we need to improve on.”

Beard and the Blue Devils may be ready for Tennessee, but Summit believes that her squad is equally prepared for the contest.

“This challenge has generated a lot of excitement on, our team,” Summit said. “If you’re playing against the best team in the country right out of the blocks, it gets everyone’s attention. And we think Duke is the best team in the country right now.”

MISTIE BASS will need to have a good game off the bench for Duke to win.

On the same night that Duhon injured himself it looked as though Krzyzewski could be out for a few games with a muscle injury to his hip. After a week of practice, Krzyzewski should be roaming the sidelines Saturday against a team he coached to the NIT in 1978.

The Blue Devils plan to throttle the Black Knights early in the contest and test their depth later in the game. Duke starts the season without the hype it did last year, and Randolph thinks the team will be able to improve without any ceiling on its potential.

“He’s [Jones] always going to guard the other team’s best wing player,” freshman Shavlik Randolph said. “He’s got the strength to defend anybody; he’s got the quickness to defend anyone and he’s got great playing ability. He’s a tremendous offensive rebounder as well.”

Unlike many games last year, the Blue Devils’ will have a size advantage at nearly every position on the floor. Army’s Greg Wallace, listed at 6-foot-B—the only player over 6-foot-6 on the Black Knight’s roster —will start at the center position.

To stymie Wallace, Duke will most likely send the 6-foot-9, 230-pound freshman Shelden Williams inside to start the game alongside 6-foot-10 Randolph, who has lead the team in scoring in both of the preseason contests.

DURHAM After botched trips, poor attempts at humor, bad stories and a general hiatus from both laughter and the football program, the Grid Pickers decided to remedy at least the latter by making their way over to Wallace Wade Stadium Saturday afternoon for what they hoped would be an ensuing Victory Bell celebration.

Since it was many of the seniors last Grid Picks, they naturally expressed their bittersweet parting sentiments.

“This f—ing sucks,” Evan der Holyfield” Davis said. “I can’t believe I have to cover one game this year—l’m going to try to call Chris Duhon back one more time.”

“St.” Nick Christie would also have been depressed if he hadn’t passed out on The Chronicle couch, muttered sweet nothing to Robbie “M. Hunt?” Samuel in his sleep and taken an extra hour and a half before waking up and trying to do a graphic that had already been done.

“Any time you can get” Paul “a Abdul into a lead, you’re doing well” Doran would have been particularly sad, but since his doctor had him all drugged up he really couldn’t feel much.

“Wake up,” Brian “I’m good at grid picks when I actually pick” Morray said to Doran, making up for a comment that would have been Kevin “P” Lees’s “don’t get mad at me for booking the wrong date” if he hadn’t been in Indianapolis.

“You’re missing Carl Franks throw his playbook on the sideline for what may be the final time.”

“But look,” Dave “dumps like a truck” Ingram said. “At least “-

ROBERT TAI/THE CHRONICLE

DONALD McINTOSH and the men’s soccer seniors will play their final home game this weekend.

FOOTBALL

to the men’s soccer program, the former ACC tournament champions and 1986 National Champions.

“We have to get Duke to what Duke used to be,” sophomore Owoicho Adogwa said. “We owe coach some victories.”

A win over William and Mary will be a royal pain, as the Tribe has gone 13-71 against one of the toughest schedules in the nation. Most notably, William & Mary has played No. 1 Maryland, No. 2 Wake Forest and No. 4 Indiana. And while the Tribe lost all three games by the combined score of 8-2, they were able to do something Duke has failed to do twice this season—beat Virginia. The No. 11 Cavaliers defeated Duke in the regular season and most recently in the ACC tournament, a one-sided slugfest that has left many Blue Devils vengeful.

Oddly enough, the winner of Friday’s contest will play Virginia in the second round of the NCAAs.

“If we win this game Friday we play Virginia at Virginia, which is going to be a brawl,” defender Adam Guren said. “It

of Alex Wade and Chris Douglas to find open spaces.

Although acknowledging the Tar Heels’ defensive struggles this season, the Duke coaching staff expects to face a tenacious North Carolina defense Saturday.

“They certainly don’t have all those firstround draft picks,” Franks said. “But what they’ve got is some guys that are going to play very hard. Both teams are going to play very hard. It will be a war.”

Having been physically manhandled over the past three seasons many Blue Devils are quick to point out that no matter how poor North Carolina looks on paper they still bring a certain physicality to every contest.

“One thing I' notice is they come out ready to play,”

FRIDAY. NOV

would be a good game. We owe them big time after the games we’ve played so far.”

Guren’s mentality is indicative of that of his teammates, as is his emphasis on the importance of playing one game at a time.

“We can’t play Virginia unless we win on Friday, so we’ve got to keep Friday in mind and make sure we get that one done,” he said. “Virginia is kind of in the back of our minds, but we’ve got to stay focused on William and Mary.”

Led by All-American candidate Ralph Bean, who has tallied 10 goals and 11 assists, the Tribe has outscored opponents 41-26 in 2002. Bean is supported

by Carlos Garcia and Andreas Nydal who have combined for 17 scores 11 assists.

The triumvirate runs a patient offense that tries to tediously break down defenses. In anticipation of this offensive scheme, Duke has altered its game plan.

“We switched the formation up a little bit,” Guren said. “We’re going to play four in the back and we should be solid more defensively...Because they’re so good at possessing the ball, instead of letting them play through

Smith said. “They come out hitting hard, they come out fired up. You can’t ever take them lightly at all. So we’re going to have to come out and match their intensity. We’re going to have to come out and throw our weight around.”

One area in which the Tar Heels do not look ripe for an upset is on offense.

North Carolina boasts the ACC’s top passing attack and will undoubtedly be licking its collective lips when going up against the woefully poor Blue Devil secondary, which is once again ranked last in

conference.

Although UNC head coach John Bunting has publicly stated that the recently struggling C.J. Stephens will be Saturday’s starting quarterback, he has not ruled out the return of sophomore play caller Darian Durant. Durant had been posting All-ACC numbers

IBER 22. 2002 »PAGE 21

us we’ll probably sit a little bit and keep the ball in front of us so we can

counter more.”

Adogwa and junior Jordan Cila have led Duke offensively all year, and will be expected to continue bearing the onus Friday. Their responsibility will be a little greater, though, as AllACC performer Trevor Perea is still hampered by a quad injury. His status is being evaluated on a daily basis, and whether or not he plays will be determined at game time.

A seven-day layoff since Duke’s last game has allocated some recuperation time for Perea and his teammates to regroup and refocus.

“We took a little time off over the weekend and just physically and mentally recovered,” coach John Rennie •said. “The practices this week have been very sharp. We’re just continuing to hopefully get our team better.”

And according to co-captain Donald Mclntosh, to get one more shot at the vaunted Cavaliers.

“We’re definitely not looking past the game Friday, but we would love to see Virginia again,” he said.

until breaking his wrist in mid-October.

Not knowing whom to expect, the Blue Devils

have been preparing for both potential signal callers.

Saturday’s season finale presents an interesting oddity for the Blue Devils. Duke will field a team entirely devoid of seniors, as the team’s only graduating player, linebacker Jamyon Small, will miss the game with a torn ACL. Asked whether he thought a lack of senior leadership on the field would limit his side’s feelings of desperation, Franks shook his head.

“I hope that’s not something that our guys are thinking about,” Franks said. “I don’t think it is. I think they realize the importance of this game. I think there’s a certain sense of wanting to play this game for Jamyon Small who’s not coming back, who’s not going to be able to play in the game.”

SPECIAL TEAMS

The Tar Heels have been abominable at stopping the run since Ryan Sims left a 315-pound hole on the defensive line. With UNC allowing a league-high 228.5 rushing yards per contest, Chris Douglas and Alex Wade should be able to run wild.

In a miserable year, North Carolina has been content with sitting back in coverage, allowing an ACC-high nine yards per completion while managing just a league-low six picks. Adam Smith wants 2,000 yards, and he’ll get it.

With Brent Garber still on the mend, Duke could have a serious weakness in its kicking game in what is bound to be a tight match. Khary Sharpe hasn’t translated well to special teams either, so Duke better watch out in a nailbiter.

TH Boasting the worst running game in a league that has been defined by the run this season, UNC probably won’t rely on the ground game much. When they do, look for Ryan Fowler and Co. to cap off a superb year on the other end.

The Blue Devils will have some catching up to do on pass defense, as they’re sure to be chasing UNC’s Sam Aiken all the way to his I,oooth yard. If Darian Durant returns under center, Duke’s weak secondary might just ware out.

Tar Heel John Lafferty is the ACC’s worst punter, averaging a meager 36.5 yards per boot despite being used the most often. With Duke set to hamper Carolina’s run, Lafferty could singlehandedly lose the field position battle.

BIG EAST from page 16 away from a berth in the Jan. 3 Fiesta Bowl. They finish the season at Syracuse and at home against struggling Virginia Tech.

“Our goal’s in sight, but no team’s going to give it to us,” Dorsey said. “We proved that last year against Boston College and Virginia Tech. No team is going to just hand it to us.”

The Hurricanes also took oyer sole possession of first place in the Big East.

But Pittsburgh, behind pesky and resilient quarterback Rod Rutherford, made it difficult.

After falling behind 28-14, the Panthers had a chance to tie in the final minutes. Rutherford scored on a three-yard run with 4:37 to play, cutting the deficit to a touchdown. The Hurricanes had to punt, giving the Panthers the ball with 2:12 left.

They drove to the Miami 25, and Rutherford misfired on two consecutive passes. Then he connected with Yogi Roth for a 5-yard gain to set up a fourthand-five from the 20. Roth was wide open again, this time on a slant pass at the goal line, but Rutherford’s pass sailed past his outstretched arms and through the end zone.

“We gave a championship-type effort,

and we were very close to getting it done,” Harris said. “It was a tough game to lose.”

Miami’s defense gave up 341 yards but left Pitt battered literally. Receiver Larry Fitzgerald left the game with a bloody nose and a swollen face, and receiver Roosevelt Bynes left the game after a crushing hit in the fourth quarter.

Rutherford was sacked four times, all in the first half, but he continued to keep the Hurricanes off-balance with a good mix of running and passing. He finished with 68 yards rushing and completed 17 of 38 passes for 150 yards and two touchdowns.

It just wasn’t enough.

“He hung in there, made some good throws down the stretch and gave us a chance to win the game,” Harris said.

Dorsey, wearing a soft cast on his left wrist, struggled in the first half. He missed receivers and was 5-of-15 passing for 13 yards with an interception that led to Pitt’s first touchdown. He bounced back in the second half, though, and threw two perfect fade passes to Andre Johnson—one for a touchdown and another that led to a score.

Dorsey finished 14-of-26 for 163 yards. He was 3-for-3 for 58 yards on Miami’s first drive of the second half, including a 30-yard pass to Johnson that helped the ’Canes retake the lead 21-14.

Established 1905

Security bill incites concern

Members

of Congress will gather today to give final approval to the new homeland security department, a long overdue reorganization of law enforcement agencies that should eventually result in a safer America. First proposed by Democrats after Sept. 11, the bill evolved into a bipartisan effort that—while at times plagued by bickering and underhanded legislative moves—revolutionizes the government’s ability to gather and interpret security information.

With a unified Congress and a president as powerful as ever, sponsors of the bill did manage to sneak in several positions that betray the bill’s intent. Under the version passed by the Senate earlier this week, for example, the president would be able to avoid certain civil service requirements. The provision is ostensibly to give more flexibility to a department with a particularly compelling national interest, but its work should not allow the unfair labor practices or the less effective government against which the civil service protects. Republicans have hinted that they will strike provisions—including to one that would suspiciously locate a security research center in the president’s home state from the bill, and the final version will hopefully not include them.

Despite the importance of having a department to consolidate different security agencies, an important subject was noticeably lacking frorh’debate over the past several weeks; the infringement ofcivil liberties. The constant tension between security and liberty has become almost cliche since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, as President George W. Bush’s administration has incessantly and sometimes recklessly trotted the globe in search of terrorists. But the threat to Americans’ everyday liberties—such as freedom from wiretaps or unjustified detentions—are very real.

The Congressional debate over homeland security lacked any indepth debate about such concerns. Part of the reason lies with Bush’s tactics in setting the agenda. The debate over invading Iraq overshadowed any discussion ofcivil liberties back home, and while Americans could have been hearing arguments about homeland security since before July, Bush has distracted them. Most of the fault lies, however, with Congressional leaders who were either too callous or too meek to broach the subject of civil liberties.

One of the few bright spots has been Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.V. Seven other Democratic Senators joined him in opposing the president’s version of the bill, but Byrd was the only one who spoke with the candor and forthrightness necessary for such a monumental decision.

The idea of consolidating security agencies under one authority promises more effectiveness and accountability in preventing terrorism, and the bill that will likely pass Congress today goes a long way to fulfilling that idea. Yet, Congress’ unwillingness to ask necessary questions and the president’s unwillingness to give more answers tarnishes the legislative success.

Clubs need

more

The Chronicle’s staffedito“Money entitled Troubles” calls attention to a problem that has faced clubs for far too long. As the president of a mid-sized club with “an established presence on campus, a sizable and dedicated membership and qualified leaders,” I am troubled by the inability of many worthy clubs in need of support to gain the aid they require.

I am president of mock trial, where students simulate courtroom trials and compete nationally. For four years, I have been frustrated at the lack of administrative support for this academic extracurricular and at the lack of awareness ofthe prestige of the program. Despite tireless fundraising attempts

rial

funds

to encourage

by our members and notwithstanding generous donations from individual departments, we have still had to pay significantly out of pocket to

travel to tournaments and have in the past been forced to withdraw from events because of insufficient funds.

Yet, I have been encouraged by the idea that a small group of dedicated and talented students could take the initiative to form a club—without money, without an advisor—and consistently compete at a high level with the best schools in the nation. The students who do mock trial take it upon themselves to compete. These are the types of students we should encourage—it is this type of student Duke seeks in enhancing its

students

academic reputation, and it is this type of student that Duke risks alienating by its burdensome administrative and funding practices.

A word to those reviewing the plight of clubs: Please find away to keep highly motivated students like those in mock trial from having to scramble for existence. Though I am wary of The Chronicle’s willingness to cut certain clubs altogether, attention must be given to those clubs that have fallen through the cracks, clubs that, like us, are finding that talent and initiative can only take them so far when the cracks are not cracks but are major holes.

Until recently, it hosted Osama bin Laden and still continues to permit international terrorist training camps within its borders.

Reanalyze Iraq

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22,2002 »PAGE 27

SAE chapter disbanded because...

I see it on walkways and I see it on bookbags. “No I read with deep regret two articles last week about blood for oil.” Are you kidding me? No blood for oil? the dissolution of Kappa Sigma fraternity, which has Just who, exactly, is advocating such an exchange? I’m been at Duke since 1873—about 50 years before Duke sorry, but the logic behind the antiwar movement on became Duke! The article spoke of a possible trend at

this campus escapes me.

Let me be clear. I am in no way saying that anyone who opposes war with Iraq is an idiot. There are many people, even at Duke, who have legitimate problems with attack. Some think that we need more international support, some think that attacking will give Saddam Hussein a “nothing to lose” mentality that could lead him to cause harm more severe than he would cause now and some think that Nathan the time just isn’t right. I respectfully p t disagree with these people and do not —^arlcton GettingDom question their patriotism.

My problem is instead with those to Business who lay on the bus stop benches in body bags and make chants insinuating that the president and vice president are killing children daily. Or how about the letter to The Chronicle last month saying that I shouldn’t ignore the lives of Iraqis just because they are cloaked in “dark skin?”

As far as intentions go, everything is so black and white to these people. Because they believe that those who disagree with them are mean spirited, they refuse to analyze or consider their positions. And that’s the biggest problem.

First and foremost, those in the “no blood for oil” movement seem to be under the impression that the United States views war as the first option in eliminating the threat it believes Iraq poses to the United States This is quite inaccurate. Though the United States has definitely threatened attack, it has shown itself to, in conjunction with the United Nations, to first favor inspection. So I would suggest that you hold off on that not-so-original chant, “Bush and Cheney what to do you say, how many kids did you kill today?”, for at least a little while because right now the answer is zero.

And couldn’t an argument be made that a regime change would be the best way to protect Iraq’s children? This is a government that has made cuts in baby milk rations contracted by the United Nations and withheld medicine from children. It also runs military training courses for 10 to 15-year-olds that include 14hour days. Families whose children don’t attend are often denied food ration cards.

And the adult population isn’t exactly treated very well either. Aside from raping women for political purposes, the Iraqi government, according to Amnesty International, also decapitates people in front of their family members and displays the victims’ heads “in front oftheir homes for several days.” Also, the Human Rights Alliance reported in 2001 that Hussein has “killed more than 500 journalists and other intellectuals in the past decade.” For some reason, I have a hard time sympathizing with arguments taped to body bags that say things like “Iraq’s military is only one-third the size of the United States’s. How is this fair?” I know it’s fun to think that your opposition is mean spirited, but in this case it’s not very realistic. Nearly all of us who support the United States’ policy do so for one simple reason. We don’t want there to be another Sept 11. That’s it. And before a productive debate about the United States’s policy can take place, those who oppose it need to grasp this. The question is not whether or not we should hurt people. The question is what the best way to protect them is.

The current “no blood for oil” movement on our campus is just the latest demonstration of what’s wrong with the knee-jerk liberalism that runs rampant on college campuses, both with students and administrators. According to its tenants, all one has to do to appear noble and intelligent is care. Consequences don’t matter. Alternatives need not be offered.

Rationality takes a backseat to. emotion. And there is no room for disagreement or discussion on how to do what’s right. According to this brand of liberalism, those who are not pacifists selfishly want to achieve their goals by hurting others.

I propose that we stop the shouting, stop the tired and inaccurate slogans and intellectually discuss the best way to dead with the one person who actually does hurt people—Saddam Hussein.

David Buckingham Guest Commentary Duke for national fraternities to become local fraternities and addressed the situation with Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Despite a number of newspaper articles earlier this year about the dissolution of SAE, I have refrained from addressing the SAE situation publicly, but now feel compelled to do so in light of the precedent it seems to have established. I wish to correct the factual background belying this “precedent,” which, judging from the news reports, the Duke community has misapprehended.

The unfortunate situation leading to the demise of SAE had been developing for some time. In May 2001, Deans Jim Clack and Kacie Wallace sent a letter to all SAE alumni of Duke University describing severe behavioral problems involving undergraduate members of the chapter. Despite the extreme sanction of a membership review in August 2001, the undergraduate members of the chapter, by January 2002, were wholly unable to engage in any meaningful behavioral modification or self-policing. In early January 2002, I was informed of the following by either students who were eyewitnesses or University officials: One undergraduate had attempted to break into the home of a professor and was subdued by the Durham police only with the use of a canine unit and then kicked out the window of the police cruiser transporting him to a magistrate’s office.

Within 24 hours, another undergraduate member of SAE ignited himself after pouring kerosene on his arm in the presence of his “brothers” who did nothing to stop him.

An undergraduate member informed me that he was arrested for possession of five different controlled substances.

A former undergraduate member of the chapter struck a female undergraduate in the head and knocked the woman to the floor at an SAE function. At the time the disclosure was made to me, the undergraduate in question had already been suspended by the Alumni Commission on other grounds.

The Alumni Commission responded by placing the chapter under a cease and desist order prohibiting all fraternity operations and suspending certain undergraduate members who had been involved in other misconduct. Duke expelled none of the students involved in the misconduct and only took limited disciplinary measures against the perpetrators of even the most egregious misconduct. Duke took action against the •

chapter independent of the Alumni Commission and without consulting us in advance. By letter, dated Jan. 18, 2002, Duke imposed severe restrictions on SAE’s upcoming rush activities. After the situation at SAE appeared to stabilize, the cease and desist order was lifted. On Jan. 24, 2002, the undergraduate members violated the terms of the University’s rush regulations as well as the rules and regulations of the Duke Interfraternity Council and the chapter’s own resolutions. On Jan. 25, 2002, a complaint was filed by another Duke organization at the IFC office against the Duke chapter of SAE. On Jan. 26, 2002, the SAE national organization recommended to the Duke SAE Alumni Commission that the chapter be closed. We agreed. We immediately issued a second cease and desist order, which signaled to the undergraduate members of SAE that closure was imminent given the egregiousness of the behavioral problems and our repeated warnings to close the chapter. We met with a University official the next day to discuss the mechanics of closing the chapter. The undergraduate members then met to attempt to “deactivate.”

Those young men involved in the attempted deactivation were later expelled. We had already decided to close the chapter due to deplorable behavioral problems far beyond what is acceptable behavior for an SAE chapter.

To the extent that the former members of Kappa Sigma have relied on SAE as a model, their reliance has been grossly misplaced and their resulting actions are a tragedy. The dissolution of a 130-year-old Kappa Sigma fraternity at Duke University is a very serious matter.

The former members of Kappa Sigma know that they were responsible for the demise of a 130-year-old institution at an outstanding university.

I urge the University administration to use this tragedy to reconsider its policy of extensive regulation of student life at Duke. Increased regulation in the 1990s and 2000s has led to an increase in the level of egregiousness of behavioral problems and, I suspect, the sheer number of behavioral problems. Treating students as adults rather than children is more consistent with the educational mission at hand and may induce them to rise to the occasion and act in a more responsible fashion. I also urge the University to reconsider its policy of taking action against living groups rather than the individual involved in misconduct.

By failing to take meaningful action against the individuals committing the misconduct, the University dooms all greek organizations and other living groups to a future of uncertainty, thereby jeopardizing some of the oldest institutions at Duke University and permanently altering the heritage, traditions and fabric of this University.

Thanksgiving: moment of truth for dating A long November, and there’s reason to believe it’s not ending anytime soon. Our primary dates are with our Apple I-Books, and, along with our new Le Sportsac totes, we’re sporting brand new bags below our eyes. Sneakers have replaced stilettos for stomping down the street, and everyone on campus pants Winter is hovering, and as it inches near, relationships (like students) enter a

H flEl

hibernation phase. “I’m ready to drop,” announces a fellow Boston girl, while Faran curling on my couch. “Papers, presentanails worn she Krentcil out,” are tions, even my moans, holding up her hands as proof.

You Write “And let’s not even talk about the boy.”

She’s been dating him since freshman year, but hasn’t seen him for a week. “We’ll talk before break,” she shrugs, “though I don’t know how much he’ll have to say.”

My favorite Southern belle has lots to say. “Are we together? Are we just hooking up? Who knows!” she sighs while sipping tea. “I hate it how we never talk.” I tell her to try, but she shakes her head. “No way. I don’t want to be that angry b—, screaming at him on how he can’t commit.” But we all know he’s driving her mad, and if he won’t commit, shell soon be committed herself.

“What do I do over break?” she moans. “Do we call? Do we say goodbye? Dammit, this is driving me nuts.” For this girl, impending break is judgment day—will he give her a proper farewell and validate his date? Or will they come back in January, ashamed, estranged or worse?

For this chick, break-time is the deadline for defining her boy bond. But for Duke girls like me, Thanksgiving

break is like a good night’s sleep—you fall into it confused and crazy, and when you wake up (or get smacked with the reality known as finals week), things make a lot more sense. Right now I’m so tired; I just can’t sleep, even when I’m wearing my new Only Hearts pajamas. My life feels like a walking dream, and it’s throwing everything off.

Backstage during last night’s Macbeth, I got down on my knees and fixed a guy friend’s sword. “You look a little flushed,” he said. “What’s up?” I sat down on the set and blabbed about my life: My current boy is pulling away. I like him too much to let go, but I’m also sick of his immunity to the word “boyfriend.” Meanwhile, a long time crush has taken last year’s bait, and now the chase is on.

Crushes to the left of me, current flames to my right, and here I am—stuck in the middle and too tired to move.

“What are you going to do?” asks my acting bud before his opening scene.

“I don’t know” I laugh, not knowing why. “I guess I’m going to sleep on it.”

For some of my Mends, break is business as usual. For others, it’s a deadline for relationship definition. And then there are those of us who just need a good night’s sleep before we can go on with our lives. Maybe when we wake up, the world will make sense again.

The weary days and sleepless nights are almost at an end. Hang in there, and sweet dreams.
