BAA set for downsizing University proposes to cut faculty from 17 to 6

By KEVIN LEES and KELLY ROHRS The Chronicle

Administrators in Arts and Sciences and the School ofMedicine announced in meetings late last week that the probable reorganization of the Department of Biological Anthropology and Anatomy will include a drastic reduction of the depart-

ment’s faculty size.

Richard Kay, the department’s chair, told faculty members at a meeting Friday afternoon that through attrition and retirement, the department’s full-time faculty would be reduced to just four from its current 10 and its temporary positions cut from seven to two. The reductions come as the department moves entirely within Arts and Sciences.

The natural sciences department—which split with what is now the more humanist Department of Cultural Anthropology in 1988—has been jointly administered by the School of Medicine and Arts and Sciences. Most of the faculty teach and conduct research in Arts and Sciences, but have historically taken on the teaching duties of human gross anatomy

for first-year medical students as well. Consequently, the department’s faculty were dispersed between the Biological Sciences Building, the Sands Building and other locations in the Medical Center.

Carel Van Schaik, professor of BAA and director of graduate studies, expressed similar concerns about the proposed cuts.

“We believe that it would really jeopardize the mission of the department,” he said. “It would really threaten to bring us below critical mass—which may mean losing the undergraduate department, the graduate department and quite likely the Primate Center.”

Although the Primate Center is not directly linked to the department, many anthropology faculty members rely heavily on the center’s prosimian primates for their research, and a substantial amount of the department’s grant money from the National Science Foundation is invested in joint projects between the two units.

Kay, who was away on a trip to Japan, was not available for

maintain the status quo, to move entirely within Arts and Sciences, or to divide the department into two.

Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences William Chafe would only confirm that a meeting took place last week to discuss BAA’s future, and that the meeting included Kay, Dean of Natural Sciences Berndt Mueller and officials from the School of Medicine.

Kay then met with faculty Friday afternoon.

“We’re going to meet with faculty ourselves about it in two weeks,” Chafe added. “I will do that with them directly, not through The Chronicle. I can only confirm that the issue of future lines was part of the

discussion.”

Mueller said the administration is discussing several options.

“I think we’ve taken the steps in the order they need to be taken, to talk with the department chairs first,” he said.

“We have started conversations with the department about what would be our options.”

A win and a loss for No. 1 teams over weekend Women defeat No. 9 Tar Heels in overtime

But Baptist never shot the free throws, because Bell examined the end of regulation on replay and decided the foul was committed after time had expired. Duke (17-0, 5-0 in the ACC) then surged out to a 78-67 overtime victory over No. 9 North Carolina (15-2,5-1) before a capacity crowd of 10,180 in

Guinier pushes audience to heed King’s lessons

But Sunday afternoon in Duke Chapel, as the keynote speaker at the Service of Celebration and Commemoration for Martin Luther King, Jr., she refused to allow herself to fall into a similar trap.

Guinier challenged a receptive audience to learn from the methodology of King to be “perpetually engaged for the struggle of racial inequality.” She first entered the public eye in 1993 when President Bill Clinton rescinded his nomination of her to head the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division before a

confirmation hearing.

She paraphrased from a 1959 speech by King and said the struggle for black rights would make America better not just for the blacks, but for all people. “We need to not only follow in [King’s! footsteps,” Guinier added, “but also walk with those who are at the margin of society and learn from their experience so we can reinvigorate the center and remake this great ROBERT TAI/THE CHRONICLE country to reflect all of our images.”

Student, SAE nationals challenge rape charge Lawsuit cites several charges against former SAE member for December 2001 incident

By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Inc., and a member of the former Duke chapter of the fraternity are contesting a female Duke student’s claim of acquaintance rape, in briefs filed with Durham County Superior Court.

Junior Nora Kantor, who is on leave and studying at The Ohio State University, charges senior James Thompson in a civil suit with civil assault, civil battery, infliction of emotional distress and civil seduction, and charged the national SAE organization with negligence, following an alleged sexual assault after an SAE Christmas party in December 2001.

No criminal charges were filed, and Kantor is seeking compensatory damages of at least $lO,OOO. Kantor said in an e-mail that she had experienced a lot of physical and emotional pain and is pursuing the lawsuit as away to bring about “closure.”

In filing the charge of civil seduction, Kantor’s motion claims that Thompson

“wrongfully seduced and debauched her... through persuasion, deception, enticement and artifice.” Kantor, a member of Delta Delta Delta sorority, said that prior to the incident she was “chaste, innocent and virtuous.”

The national SAE organization responded in a motion filed by lawyer Dave Lewis that it “does not possess the right to control the day-to-day activities of any chapter and does not exercise control over such activities.”

Nevertheless, Lewis contends that Kantor “failed to exercise due care and circumspection for her own safety... in the same manner as a reasonable and prudent person would act in similar circumstances to protect herself from harm.”

Kantor’s motion notes several reported incidents of acquaintance rape, alcohol violations and other problems at Duke’s SAE chapter and other SAE chapters nationally and claims that “it was widely related among female students at Duke that the acronym ‘SAE’ stood for ‘Sexual Assault Expected.’”

She also said that, as a result of the

Keohane pushes higher standards for athletes University president joins colleague in calling for less practice time, higher graduation rates

By WILL ROSENTHAL The Chronicle

In an op-ed piece published last Tuesday in the San Jose Mercury News, President Nan Keohane called for university educators to push for aggressive steps to improve the academic standards of college sports programs.

Writing with President John Hennessy of Stanford University, Keohane declared that “those of us charged with leading our nation’s major universities have a responsibility to restore the primacy of academics in the lives of student athletes.”

Highlighting the low graduation rates of many college sports teams and the increasing time demand of voluntary practices on athletes, the two presidents made several specific proposals for measures that

lated activities” to 20 hours a week. “When the NCAA created the 20-hour rule, there was a huge outcry from students,” Kennedy said. “So I would expect a lot of resistance to cutting back voluntary workouts.”

In addition, Duke officials said measures described in the article are unlikely to have much effect on schools like Duke and Stanford, which already have high academic standards for their athletes relative to other schools. “Duke’s [athlete] graduation rates are usually pretty close to those of non-athletes and are traditionally among the top five in the country,” Smith said.

For this reason, educators at schools with less rigorous academic requirements may oppose these measures, which would raise the NCAA’s standards closer to those of Duke and Stanford. “I think more emphasis should fall on institutions to regulate themselves,” Perkins said.

program to Division I, said such an approach would be misplaced. “I don’t think we should penalize bad schools. I think we should reward good schools,” he said. In addition, Perkins questioned the way graduation rates are calculated since schools are punished for students who transfer to other schools or leave early to play professional sports.

The last major step that the two presidents proposed is to limit the voluntary workouts of studentathletes in order to combat increasing practice requirements.

“We need to look at redefining voluntary workouts, [because] the wT ord ‘voluntary5 is a joke,” said Kathleen Smith, professor of biology and chair of Duke’s Athletic Council, a group of professors, administrators and other community members that advises on University athletics policies.

Current NCAA rules limit “required athletically re-

would combat the problems.

Those controversial steps, however, could draw resistance from officials in the college athNan Keohane letic community, said Christopher Kennedy, associate director of athletics at Duke, who helped Keohane draft the article.

“Whenever there is a proposal for change at the NCAA, you’re going to get some surprising responses and some unpredictable opposition because of the diverse range of the [NCAA’s] constituency,” Kennedy said.

The first proposal made in the article is to toughen the scholastic requirements of college-bound athletes when they are still in high school. Under NCAA rules, students must complete 13 core courses in high school to be eligible to play college sports. There currently is an NCAA initiative to raise the number of required classes to 14, and Keohane wrote that number should be increased to 16.

“Many of the NCAA’s efforts have brought the

standards closer to what Duke’s already are,” Kennedy said.

Perhaps most controversial proposal in the article is to punish schools with low graduation rates. “We must develop sanctions with real teeth for programs that fail to achieve reasonable graduation rates,” the presidents wrote. Punishments could include disqualification from bowl games or post-season tournaments and a reduction in athletic scholarships.

UNIVERSITY BRIEFS From staff reports

DCU sponsors lecture on campus speech The Duke Conservative Union is sponsoring a lecture by Alan Charles Kors, a professor of history at the University of Pennsylvania, today at 4 p.m. in the Weston Laßarre Auditorium in the Social Sciences Building. The speech, which is free and open to the public, is entitled “The Betrayal ofLiberty and Dignity on American Campuses.” Organizers said it will “address the totalitarian tactics of university administrators all across the United States.”

Kors is co-director and president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education. He defended a Penn student from prosecution in the “Water Buffalo” case there—a case prosecuted in part by Duke’s current Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta.

Pratt center receives funding from NSF A University center is being funded to start a special twoyear graduate research education curriculum. It will teach students how to use engineering principles to explore natural materials and processes in ways that could lead to biologically based products of societal benefit or to basic laboratory discoveries about living structures and systems, Duke will receive about $2.9 million from the National Science Foundation to begin the Graduate Training in Biologically Inspired Materials program through the interdisciplinary Center for Biologically Inspired Materials and Material Systems, which is based at the Pratt School of Engineering

Photos of Afghan life on display The University is sponsoring an exhibit of pictures by two photographers—one American, one Afghan—that create a portrait of Afghanistan from the days ofthe mujahedeen to the postSept. 11 society struggling to recreate itself, organizers said.

“Afghanistan 1982-2002” features photographs by Edward Grazda* an American who began taking photographs in Afghanistan in 1980 and has returned nearly every year since.

The exhibit, which is free and open to the public, will be on display at the John Hope Franklin Center for Interdisciplinary and International Studies, at 2204 Erwin Road until Feb. 5.

Students robbed at gunpoint From staff reports Duke police are searching for the suspect in a reported armed robbery on East Campus Saturday evening.

Officers responded to Pegram Dormitory at 8:42 p.m. Jan. 18 in reference to three students’ report that they were held up after they left the Ninth Street area and were walking to Pegram.

They said that around 8:35 p.m. they were walking on the path to the side of Pegram between the Biddle Music Building and Baldwin Auditorium.

A man approached them from behind and grabbed one of the victims by the shoulder and pressed what was believed to be a gun to his right side, and yelled, “Stop!”

Two of the victims ran toward the front ofPegram. As they were running, they heard the suspect yell, “Stop! Or I will shoot him!” referring to

the victim that he had grabbed by the shoulder.

One of the students returned to where his friend and the suspect were. The suspect ordered them to hand over their wallets. One of the students took out his wallet and handed the suspect $95.

After taking the money he told the students to run, which they did.

The suspect was last seen running in the direction Markham Street. He is described as black, 25 to 30 years of age, 5’9”, 180 pounds, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with the hood pulled over his head and dark pants. There is no description ofthe gun because the suspect had it covered with a black bandanna.

Anyone with knowledge about the crime can contact Lt. Davis Trimmer of the Duke University Police Department at 684-4713 or Durham CrimeStoppers at 683-1200.

Shootout ends in police chase From staff reports A shooting on Broad Street early Monday morning eventually carried over to Duke’s Emergency Department and ended in an unsuccessful police chase on campus, leading Durham Police Department officers to begin a search for the suspects.

The shooting began around 1:06 a.m. in the 1100 block of Broad Street, near Bully’s.

A group of teenagers reported to the Durham police that someone fired at them with a shotgun.

Two of the teenagers were transported by ambulance to Duke’s Emergency Department for minor wounds. The rest of the group followed in another vehicle.

While the teenagers were at the Emergency

Department, members of the group that shot them arrived. Friends of the victims spotted them, and there was a confrontation.

The suspects then sprinted toward the parking lot, got into a car and fired several shots at the others as they drove away. No one was injured.

Duke officers pursued the suspects, who were operating a dark blue Ford Taurus, but lost them on Flowers Drive near the traffic circle.

Due to the fact that the incident originated in the 1100 block of Broad Street, Durham Police Department officers will be the lead investigating agency.

Anyone with knowledge about the crime can contact Lt. Norman Blake of the Durham Police at 560-4322 or Durham Department CrimeStoppers at 683-1200.

Dealing With The Flu The Flu (Influenza) affects the nose and throat down to the bronchial tubes and lungs. While uncomfortable up to a week or so, the flu usually resolves completely on its own and is not dangerous to healthy people. It is easily spread by direct contact with an infected person after they cough or sneeze. You can lower your chances of catching or transmitting the flu by washing your hands frequently with soap and water, and by keeping your hands away from your face.

Flu symptoms may also include: Sore throat Nasal congestion and/or runny nose Dry cough, or a cough with phlegm

Flu symptoms usually include: Fever 101°-103°, often with chills Rapid onset of symptoms over several hours Muscle and joint aches

Now is the season the Duke Student Health Center begins to see large numbers of students for flu symptoms. In the majority of people, your own immune system will adequately combat the infection within 5-10 days. Here are some things to do to relieve the symptoms of the flu: Fever, headache, muscle aches: For fevers over 101° use ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, etc.) or acetaminophen (Anacin 3, Tylenol, etc.)

Fatigue: Get plenty of rest; it is the most important treatment of all. Fatigue may be the last symptom to subside.

Nasal congestion: An oral decongestant (Sudafed) may decrease nasal congestion. Breathing moist air can soothe inflamed nasal -

passages.

Sore throat Gargle (don't swallow) with a solution of 1/2 tsp salt in an 8-oz glass of warm water every 2-4 hours to help reduce swelling, cleanse the throat, and lessen pain. Lozenges or throat sprays can also be helpful.

Cough: A cough syrup may help; however, don't overuse a cough suppressant because some cough is helpful in clearing your infection. Never use prescription strength cough syrup without a doctor's recommendation. Drink plenty of fluids.

Poor appetite: Drink plenty of liquids to soothe the throat, loosen secretions, and help relieve nasal congestion. Drink 6-8 oz glasses of water per day. Eat and drink small amounts more often of healthy foods that appeal to you; food and liquid should not be forced.

GUINIER from pages In response to the affirmative action decision, a group of black and Latino activists, educators and lawyers helped spark the initiation of a system called the Texas 10 Percent Plan, which takes the top 10 percent of state high school students for admission to the two flagship schools, the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A & M University.

These students admitted under the plan ended up achieving higher freshman GPAs than those admitted with high SAT scores.

“The plan was initiated because of race, but it became [more than that].

Because of a linked fate [of fighting against racial injustice, the advocates] created a system more democratic than the ‘testocracy,” Guinier said.

John Hope Franklin, James B. Duke professor emeritus of history, said he hoped Guinier’s speech helped shed some light on the effects of affirmative action. “I hope students will see and will be enlightened and be urged to understand the importance behind the whole movement of affirmative action,” he said.

MLK from page 3 The annual afternoon Cultural Extravaganza continued the theme of diversity by celebrating King’s birthday through performance selections showcasing the various ethnicities and talents of University students. The student groups ranged from Dance Black and United in Praise to Speak of the Devil, Sabrosura and an Indian dance group.

PROFESSOR OF HISTORY CHARLES PAYNE spoke at a panel discussion Monday on the relation between King’s labor activities and current labor issues,

DANCERS participate in the Cultural Extravaganza, performed by several student groups, to celebrate the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday.

“I was really pleased with the performances. They went exceptionally well, better than we could have imagined, and the turnout was good too,” said senior Thaniyyah Ahmad, a student representative on the King Commemoration Committee, one of the hosts of the Extravaganza and Duke Student Government vice president for community interaction.

One of the selections by Dance Black, set to aremake ofthe song “What’s Going

On” originally recorded by Marvin Gaye, especially highlighted King’s work.

“The song talked about problems faced by society and considering the legacy of Dr. King, I think our piece was especially fitting,” said junior Melanie Ragland, president of Dance Black.

Students who attended the extravaganza also appreciated the range of cultural groups represented.

“It was very diverse and so it was a good way to celebrate Martin Luther

King Day,” said sophomore Khalil Tribie.

Senior Lucia Stoisor, who also attended the Poetry Slam, another cele-* bration event, was surprised at the diverse talent displayed by the groups. “It was unexpectedly pleasant—l didn’t expect it to be so good,” she said.

The Poetry Slam, which ended the day’s events, showcased Saul William, the 1996 Nuyorican Poet’s Cafe Grand Slam Champion and lead performer in the film “Slam.”

CHAPEL HILL At the start of the 2002-2003 season, the women’s basketball team played with a fire and intensity that led to consistent blow-out wins against a wide range of opponents, from weak squads such as Hampton to perennial powerhouses like Tennessee.

However, the Blue Devils’ hot play has slowed dramatically against ACC foes.

synch. The team has been forced to rely on its All-American Alana Beard along with some beneficial calls at the end of games to keep its No. 1 ranking and perfect season alive, but the players’ confidence in each other seemed to be lacking.

“We’ve had plenty of scares already,” head coach Gail Goestenkors said. “I think it’s good for us that we’ve already been in some very difficult situations.”

Developing toughness in close games is undeniably beneficial, but continually being in trouble against substantially less-talented teams and at times lacking cohesiveness when it is needed most could not have been good for the Blue Devils’ psyche.

All that changed Monday afternoon in front of a sold-out, hostile crowd at Carmichael Auditorium, where the Blue Devils’ revived passion and intensity to carry them to a 76-67 overtime victory against archrival North Carolina.

“This game was a big step, especially when it comes to our team chemistry,” junior kiss Tillis said. “I felt like we really had [chemistry] this game. It was great; we were on the same page. Emotionally, I just felt a really tight bond out there on the court. I was really excited with how we meshed today.”

At no point was Duke’s chemistry more evident than in overtime, when it outscored the Tar Heels 17-6.

The duo of Beard and Tillis stepped

5 The women’s tennis team began its spring N’western 2 campaign with a 5-2 victory over Northwestern Saturday. The fourth-ranked Blue Devils quickly jumped to a 3-1 lead over their hosts before struggling to wins four and five.

Duke won the doubles point through wins at the No. 2 and No. 3 spots, an area of the game they have continually been improving. Eleventh-ranked Julie Deßoo and Amanda Johnson cruised to an 8-2 victory over the Wildcats’ Jamie Peisel and Stacy Kokx, while Duke’s Katie Granson and Julia Smith beat Ruth Barnes and Andrea Yung 8-4.

Kelly McCain pulled a muscle during the warmups, and sat out her singles match after playing doubles. Head coach Jamie Ashworth said that he felt the team could win without McCain and wanted her to rest.

Replacing McCain in the top spot was Johnson, who was pitted against Cristelle Grier. The Wildcat freshman won the first five games of the match en route to a 6-1, 6-4 victory.

The Blue Devils were much stronger at the bottom of the lineup with straightset wins at the five and six spots. Granson struggled against Barnes in the first set but found her zone in the second winning 7-5, 6-0. Meanwhile, Smith, playing on 10 minutes notice, easily dominated in the second set of her 6-4, 6-1 victory.

The Wildcats earned their final point of the day, though the match had already been awarded to Duke, when sophomore Andrea Yung sneaked past Saras Arasu.

“I expected them to come out nervous,” Ashworth said. “They were a little defensive and played like a new team, but once they got comfortable on the court, and kept balls in play, they won fairly easily”

Second-half collapse: Blue MARYLAND from The Chronicle page 1 together. He got every rebound and he played a great game. They just played better than we did. They deserved to win.”

Despite their youth, Duke’s shooting accuracy helped it in posting a 43-37 halftime lead. The Blue Devils shot 17-of-33 from the floor in the first half, including freshman marksman J.J. Redick’s 3-of-4 performance from behind the arc. Redick scored the half’s final five points, as he stole the ball from Maryland’s Tahj Holden before converting a threepointer at the buzzer.

“I thought that in the first half, when they shot 51 percent, that we played pretty good defense,” Maryland head coach Gary Williams said. “I thought Duke made a couple tough shots. Our players were doing exactly what we asked them to do. But good players do that. We just tried to keep the focus at the half that we were playing good defense.”

Maryland didn’t just stay focused—the Terps got motivated. As quickly as Duke built its halftime lead, Maryland had wiped it away.

After Nicholas opened the second half with two free throws and a layup to cut Duke’s advantage to two, Maryland’s Tahj Holden blocked a shot by Duke’s Shavlik Randolph, then converted a layup on the other end to knot the score at 43-43. The Blue Devils would never enjoy another lead for the rest of the game.

“It would be a different game if we came out in the second halfwith some spirit and excitement and not let them get a quick 6-0 run on us,” Duke point guard Chris Duhon said. “I think then it could have been a different game.”

But while Duke’s second-half efforts began to wane, Maryland’s only became more intense.

“I thought that in the second half our execution on the offensive end was as good as its been any year against a quality team,” Williams said. “We were able to get the ball where we wanted to.”

Duke, however, was not. After Jamar Smith followed a Steve Blake miss with a dunk to give Maryland a 61-56 lead with 12:17 remaining, the Blue Devils looked to their outside shooting to close the gap. But while Duke was 5-of-9 from three-point range in the first half, the final 20 minutes were a different story. Duke’s next five field-goal attempts were all from long range, and none found the basket.

Two misses by Duhon, two from Redick, and one from Dahntay Jones—who led the Blue Devils with 26 points—highlighted Duke’s shooting woes.

“I only got three looks [in the second half,] and only two of them were good,” said Redick, who scored 13 points before fouling out with 5:14 remaining.

“They cut off my looks. I didn’t knock down the two I had, and on one Nicholas blocked my shot.”

Duke’s field-goal drought ended nearly six minutes later, when Dahntay Jones converted a layup with 7:19 remaining. By then, however, Maryland had built a 75-62 lead, a margin that Duke was not able to reduce to single-digits for the remainder of the game.

“When we did get the lead we had the patience to wait until we forced them into a couple of defensive situations where we either scored or they fouled us,” Williams said.

The Terps made the most of their free throw opportunities, converting 29 of their 31 attempts for the game. Duke, meanwhile, struggled mightily at the charity stripe, going 9-of-20 for the game, including a 5-of-13 performance in the second half.

“We have to come into hostile environments and knock down free throws,” said Duhon, who finished the game with seven points and three assists.

“That’s a key to us becoming a good team.”

While aware of Duke’s struggles at the free throw line, Krzyzewski maintained that his team has many other areas where improvement is needed.

“We’re concerned about everything,” he said.

“We’ve got a team that still has a lot of development, and this is not a good effort on our part.”

For Duhon, the Blue Devils’ lone captain, that development starts with him.

“I’m responsible for these guys, and I didn’t do my job today,” he said. “I didn’t lead them, I didn’t give them the enthusiasm and excitement that they need from their leader. I let my team down.”

With the score Duke crawled within one of Maryland, 5756, and I made a big asterisk in my notes. Making the mark, I guessed, albeit incorrectly, that Duhon’s shot would be the beginning of a patented Duke run.

Despite his comparative low scoring, the junior literally picks his time to make shots. It happens about twice a game, and like most other things on the court, he’s pretty subtle about it. But for some reason, as soon as it looks like Georgetown, Virginia or Spl l in this case Maryland are about to deliver the V straw to break the young Blue Devils’ back, here comes Duhon making one of his few shots on the day.

Paul Doran Here I figured it was just a long range Game commentary variation on the same situation. few and A minutes four missed trey’s later, I again looked at my notes.

No Duke run. Maryland’s lead creeps to 10.

A couple more minutes, same situation. Terps sneak to 71-57.

Two more minutes down—nothing. No run. No field goals. Nothing.

The only points Duke scored were a few free throws, and even then the Blue Devils were doing well ifthey went l-for-2.

At the 7:19 mark, Dahntay Jones finally hit a layup breaking the nearly six-minute long field goal drought.

“We didn’t take good shots, and when you shoot bad shots its hard to rebound,” Duhon said. “Everything went wrong for us tonight. I guess it happens—it shouldn’t happen, but we have to learn from it.”

Despite whatever the dejected Blue Devils may have learned about themselves both personally and as a team, the numbers don’t lie. And thanks to the numbers, the rest of the college basketball world now has the same opinion they have had about other Duke teams: They have no inside presence, and they live and die by the three.

Duke’s inside, a committee of Nick Horvath, Shavlik Randolph, Casey Sanders, Shelden Williams, and in this game Michael Thompson, was fairly terrible.

They allowed Maryland’s Ryan Randle to down 17 boards, they missed easy layups, and for a while it looked like they were in close competition with the guards to see who could hack more Terrapins.

“The numbers speak for themselves,” Randolph said. “They totally outplayed us.”

As far as their shooting goes, the Blue Devils will be the first tell you they stunk out the Comcast Center so bad in the second half that it no longer has that “new building smell” everyone loved. In the final 20 Duke shot 33 percent from the floor, 15 percent from behind the arc and 39 percent from the line.

The first number is okay—worse if you take away Jones’ and company’s late, junk layups when the Terps weren’t playing as tough. The second number’s wretched, but the third is abysmal: Under 40 percent from the line, after hitting 37-of-40 the game before.

In short, Shaq averages nearly 20 percentage points better, and he’s only one player—Duke put up this number as a team.

“They just played better than we did,” head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “They deserved to win. I don’t think there was one turning point, or anything like that, I just think they played harder and better than we did.”

Yes, the Terps played better. Yes, the numbers speak for themselves. Yes, the post-game criticism ofDuke is dead on—as Krzyzewski has said all season that he’s “coached No. 1 teams and this is not one ofthem.”

But for some reason, the Blue Devils chose this game to display all their Achilles Heels in one rough second act.

Maybe it was the atmosphere—4,ooo students out for blood, sporting shirts that say “F--k Duke” and sitting behind Duke’s second half basket in an almost completely vertical area called “the wall” can be intimidating for anyone.

Although the freshman might have had some problems with the mental game, the veterans should have simply been thankful not to be in the projectile haven of Cole Field House.

They should have seen “the wall,” realized it was going to be a long second half and stepped up to the challenge.

Instead, for 20 minutes of basketball, Duke came out flat and played completely uninspired. They did nothing to answer their most accurate criticism—the young Blue Devils are untested and incredibly beatable, especially away from home.

Even more miffed was Krzyzewski, who said he couldn’t figure out why his team started the second half poorly after ending the first half in the best possible manner.

“We showed no confidence, no togetherness and no enthusiasm at all,” Duhon agreed.

The Chronicle

James drops 32 points, dominates in Greensboro Even with all the hype, St. Vincent-St. Mary’s phenom Lebron James is as good as advertised—and then some.

I squandered an GREENSBORO opportunity to s6e Lebron James play during his sophomore year of high

school, and afterward, vowed never to pass up the chance again. Already the talk of Ohio—James had averaged 18.1 p,f points per game as a

freshman while leading his Fighting Irish to a Division 111 state title—he and his team■m Mike Corey mat es were going on Game commentary the road for the first time, traveling to my hometown of Columbus to play against the nation’s top-ranked team, Oak Hill Academy.

What I missed was James’ national coming-out party. He scored 33 points in a game that has since been dubbed one of the greatest high school basketball games ever.

“He is really, really, really good—he’s almost impossible to guard one-on-one,” Oak Hill coach Steve Smith told The Columbus Dispatch. “What a future that young man has in front of him.”

That was when James was a 15year old sophomore. Now, at age 18, James has become the most highlytouted—and coveted —high school athlete in history. Though others have accomplished great feats at young ages (see Jennifer Capriati in tennis, Nolan Ryan in baseball, Tiger Woods in golf and Wilt Chamberlain in basketball), James’ star has shined under more publicity, more criticism, more moneygrubbing and more expectation.

Whether or not James’ name will be legendary in the future remains to be seen, but yesterday afternoon, watching James play basketball in front of 15,000-plus in Greensboro Coliseum, I was just grateful to witness him play.

So was everyone else—fans, sportswriters, opposing players and teammates alike. Each time James touched the ball gasps resonated in anticipation throughout the arena; his pair of alley-oop dunks were met with awestruck cheers. Only his mother seemed unimpressed.

“Let’s go, baby,” his mother scolded from the sideline in the first quarter, her son having just missed a shot from the sideline. She was wearing a Notre Dame basketball jersey, which is remarkably similar in design to the Irish’s jerseys. Her name—“Lebron’s Mom”—was stitched on the back.

“Step up, baby, step up!”

James left the game with three minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, having accumulated 32 points and a new group of fans and admirers.

From the bench, James remained the centerpiece of his team and of the arena’s attention. He was shouting out orders and praises to his teammates on the floor, particularly the young man who has been tabbed by St. Vincent-St. Mary’s head coach Dru Joyce to fill James’ shoes next year, freshman Marcus Johnson.

“That’s water, Marcus,” James yelled as Johnson drained a three from the baseline. “That’s what I’m talking about, boy!”

For now, however, the voices of the sports world are chattering about James, and barring injury, will remain so for many years to come.

By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle

85 GREENSBORO— While the rest of the 56 state celebrated MarReynolds tin Luther King Jr., Day Monday, the 15,000 plus fans—the largest ever to see a high school basketball game in North Carolina —inside Greensboro Coliseum were exalting King James.

The 6-foot-7, 240 pound Lebron James scored 32 points in St. VincentSt. Mary’s (Akron, Ohio) dominating 8556 win over R.J. Reynolds (WinstonSalem, N.C.) yesterday.

Matched-up with the University of North Carolina signee Reyshawn Terry, James and his St. Vincent-St. Mary’s teammates struggled early to only a 1916 first quarter lead against the massive Reynolds squad.

There was no exception to the rule that the cream always rises to the top in the second quarter, however, as St. VincentSt. Mary’s full-court press and James’ dominance dismantled Reynolds, one of the best teams in North Carolina. While Terry and the Demons struggled to get the ball past half court, James effortlessly picked apart any defense thrown at him.

‘We were concerned about getting into a half-court game because of their size,” St. Vincent-St. Mary’s head coach Dm Joyce said. “Fortunately we were able to get into an up-tempo game. We frustrated them with our pressure.”

Playing in Air Jordans instead ofthe Adidas shoes the rest of his team wears because he “was in North Carolina,” James started the second quarter with an easy tip-in, which seemed to brew the confidence he needed for the more spectacular plays he would later make.

Three plays after hitting an impressive three-pointer in the face of Terry, James outdid himselfwhen he caught the ball on the baseline and leapt to finish just as three Reynolds players, who were all at least 6-foot-7, surrounded the hoop.

Instead of trying to rise over the giants—a viable option for the ultra-athletic Akron super-star—James maneuvered under his opponents while in the air and flipped the ball onto the other side of the backboard for a spectacular basket.

St. Vincent

HIGH SCHOOL STAR LEBRON JAMES led St. Vincent-St. Mary’s past Reynolds in Greensboro.

James sprinted back on defense as if it were a daily ritual.

James’ only other highlight of the half was a drive that baited Terry into his third foul. Struggling to find his game against James’ unusual talent and with foul trouble, Terry finished with an un-

impressive eight points.

“He’s a great player and you can’t take anything away from him,” Terry said. “I hope he does well in the NBA.” Entering the third quarter with a 4024 lead, James improved on his excellent play by mixing highlights worthy of Sportscenter with fundamental moves.

When a lowly Reynolds guard decided to challenge James’ inside presence with 3:45 left in the quarter, the No. 1 high school player in the United States squashed the ball into the ground. While the Reynolds players huffed-and-puffed down the court after this set-back, James sprinted like a deer to the other end of the court, where he caught and dunked his second alley-oop from Joyce.

As the third quarter came to a close, James decided to give the crowd one more highlight. As he tried to drive to his right, a Reynolds defender finally had success as James’ progress stopped.

Instead of letting his opponent bask in his glory, James switched directions by putting the ball between his legs and pulled up for a jump shot. The Reynolds player recovered in time to put a hand in James face. James, who appeared to

be annoyed by the pressure, faked the shot, making his defender fly by him.

James then made an easy 18-footer at the buzzer. James had 30 points and St. Vincent-St. Mary’s had a 60-41 lead at the end of the quarter.

James spent most of the fourth quarter on the bench where he enthusiastically cheered for his teammates as one ofhis other teammates lackadaisically drank a Pepsi while watching the blow-out.

“That’s just me,” James said. “I am a humble guy. Yeah, sometimes I get cocky on the floor, but offthe floor I’m humble.”

Walter downed in finals of ACC Indoors

By JAKE POSES The Chronicle

The men’s tennis team put on a strong showing at this weekend’s ACC Indoor Championships played at Wake Forest University in Winston Salem.

Freshman Ludovic Walter, the secondseed in singles competition, was the Blue Devils’ top competitor, losing to top-seeded David Loewenthal of Wake Forest in the finals of the singles competition, 6-3, 6-4.

After just an hour rest following a difficult semifinal against Florida State’s Matt Cloer, Walter took the court again to face Loewenthal. Walter got off to a slow start, failing to hold serve en route to dropping the first three games

of the match.

His play picked up, however, and continued into the second set. Walter came out firing, matching Loewenthal strokefor-stroke to four games a piece, when Loewenthal broke Walter’s serve after facing a love-40 deficit in the game.

Loewenthal, ranked 35th nationally, went on to serve out the match and claim the singles title.

“I think he is capable of beating that guy,” head coach Jay Lapidus said. “If he

was really fresh mentally he would have beat him the majority of the time. I have no concerns about his mental ability during the season.”

UNC from The Chronicle page 1 Alana Beard led the Blue Devils with 26 points and 12 rebounds, despite scoring just three points in the first half.

“We’ve watched all their other [ACC] games and they’ve all been pretty close up until the end, then Beard basically takes over,” UNC head coach Sylvia Hatchell said. “It’s the Alana Beard show the last couple of minutes. She’s producing.”

Beard and fellow junior Iciss Tillis, who had 23 points and 14 rebounds, powered the Blue Devils to victory in the last few minutes of regulation and overtime. Together, they scored Duke’s last 22 points in regulation. When the Blue Devils trailed 56-49 with 5:40 remaining, Tillis connected on a midrange jumper sparking the Blue Devils on a 12-2 run.

After Beard swished a free throw to give Duke a 61-58 lead with 45 seconds left, Leah Metcalf launched a desperation, off-balance three-pointer as the shot clock ticked down. The ball caromed off the backboard and through the hoop.

“Metcalf hit a great shot. I was like, ‘whoa.’” Beard said.

The Blue Devils brought the ball across half court and called a timeout.

With the Tar Heels playing excellent denial defense on Beard, Tillis held the ball at the top of the key. With about 10 seconds left on the game clock, Sheana Mosch made a backdoor cut on her man and caught a pass in stride on her way to the basket.

But her layup attempt was blocked all the way across halfcourt by Candace Sutton.

Metcalf collected the ball in the cor-

ner, drove and handed off to Baptist who was fouled on an unsuccessful layup attempt just as the clock expired.

Bell signaled a foul and the RA. announcer said the foul was charged to Whitley, and the arena erupted—expecting a Tar Heel victory. But Bell began examining the television monitor at center court, and after huddling with the other two officials, told the coaches the game would be going to overtime.

VENEZUELA« sition called the strike Dec. 2, crippling the world’s fifth-largest oil exporter.

Carter was meeting with Chavez, opposition figures and Cesar Gaviria, secretary general of the Organization of American States. Gaviria has tried since November to mediate an electoral solution to Venezuela’s crisis. Carter was participating in a negotiating session Monday.

“I have always hoped for a resolution, and I hope there will be one,” said the Nobel Peace Prize winner, whose Atlanta-based Carter Center is sponsoring the talks with the OAS and the United Nations.

Chavez has threatened to abandon the talks. Sunday, he accused the opposition of trying to oust him even as its leaders sat at the negotiating table.

“We don’t talk with terrorists,” Chavez said.

Opposition parties, business leaders and labor

unions called the strike to demand that Chavez resign or call early elections. The National Elections Council accepted an opposition petition and agreed to organize a Feb. 2 nonbinding referendum asking citizens whether Chavez should step down.

Chavez says the constitution only allows a binding referendum halfway through his six-year-term, or August. The Supreme Court is considering the matter.

The strike has slashed Venezuela’s oil production by more than two-thirds and caused severe shortages of gasoline, food and drinking water. It has cost Venezuela $4 billion, according to the government, and contributed to the plummeting of the bolivar currency.

Six countries—Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Portugal, Spain' and the United States—began an initiative called “Friends of Venezuela” to help end the crisis.

Chavez warned the six nations his government will not allow interference in domestic affairs.

Trying to break the strike, Chavez sent soldiers to seize water, soft drinks and beer from two bottling plants, provoking an outcry from business leaders, human rights groups and U.S. Ambassador Charles Shapiro.

One bottler was a Coca-Cola affiliate while the other belonged to Venezuela’s largest food and drinks producer, Empresas Polar. Both firms denied hoarding goods.

The Venezuelan American Chamber of Commerce condemned the raids as “a grave rupture of the state of law.”

It warned more than 1,000 affiliates that the army could commit more abuses and urged them to

report alleged violations.

Microsoft Corp. said Monday it was shutting down two Venezuela offices because it cannot guarantee employees’ security. The company has about 85 employees in Caracas and six in Maracaibo.

Chavez has used troops to seize gasoline trucks, arrest striking oil tanker crews and keep strikers out of oil installations. He has fired more than 1,000 employees from the state oil monopoly.

Before the strike, Venezuela was the world’s fifthlargest oil exporter and fourth-largest oil supplier to the United States.

It pre-strike output of 3 million barrels a day was at 800,000 barrels, the government claims. Strike leaders put the figure at 627,000.

The 48-year-old Chavez was elected in 1998 and reelected in 2000 on promises to redistribute the country’s vast oil wealth among the poor majority.

His opponents say his leftist policies have driven the country toward economic ruin, citing 17 percent unemployment and 30 percent inflation. They also say his autocratic style erodes democratic institutions.

The government Monday also notified private television stations Globovision and Radio Caracas Television that they faced administrative proceedings for allegedly supporting efforts to topple Chavez.

The complaint alleges the stations illegally ran opposition advertisements supporting the 50-day-old strike and promoting anti-government marches,

Globovision reported The stations, which long have accused Chavez of trying to stifle freedom of expression, face fines or the losses of their broadcasting licenses.

Chavez has used troops to seize gasoline trucks, arrest striking oil tanker crews and keep strikers out of oil installations. He has fired more than 1,000 employees from the state oil monopoly.

Before the strike, Venezuela was the world’s fifthlargest oil exporter and fourth-largest oil supplier to

the United States.

It pre-strike output of 3 million barrels a day was at 800,000 barrels, the government claims. Strike leaders put the figure at 627,000.

The 48-year-old Chavez was elected in 1998 and reelected in 2000 on promises to redistribute the country’s vast oil wealth among the poor majority.

His opponents say his leftist policies have driven the country toward economic ruin, citing 17 percent unemployment and 30 percent inflation. They also say his autpcratic style erodes democratic institutions.

The government Monday also notified private television stations Globovision and Radio Caracas Television that they faced administrative proceedings for allegedly supporting efforts to topple Chavez.

The complaint alleges the stations illegally ran opposition advertisements supporting the 50-day-old strike and promoting anti-government marches, Globovision reported.

The stations, which long have accused Chavez of trying to stifle freedom of expression, face fines or the losses of their broadcasting licenses.

SUPPORTERS AND PROTESTERS of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez fight Monday in Valles del Tuy, 18 miles west of Caracas. Several protesters were injured in the scuffle and one person was killed. The protests marked the 50th day of the nation’s general strike.

"The Betrayal of Liberty and Dignity on America's Campuses" By

Prof. Alan Charles Kors Department of History, University of Pennsylvania Co-Director and President, Foundation for Individual Rights in Education Co-Author of The Shadow University *****

Dr. Kors' foundation, FIRE, is the country's foremost defender of free speech and religious liberty on college campuses. Last month, it forced UNC Chapel Hill administrators to abandon their threats to deprive a Christian student group of its legal recognition and funding. Dr. Kors gained international attention for defending a Penn student from prosecution in the infamous "Water Buffalo" affair, which resulted in the abolition of Penn's speech code.

The Chronicle

the medical school, confirmed in an e-mail that BAA will be consolidated within Arts and Sciences.

“I have approved a transition plan that provides ongoing support from the [medical school] budget for all of the BAA faculty currently based in the School of Medicine. Most are tenured and are outstanding teachers in our Medical Anatomy course, which they will continue to lead,” Williams wrote. “As current senior faculty from BAA who teach Medical Anatomy retire, we may recruit individuals based in other [School of Medicine] departments to take up their teaching duties in Medical Anatomy.”

An external team of reviewers examined the department in November 2000, a process that is routine for every Duke department about every five years. Its report, which was confidential until obtained by The Chronicle, noted on its first page that disinvestment was an option for the department, but quickly discounted it.

education and had produced “some of the brightest and most productive young scholars in the business.”

Reviewers ultimately concluded that “reinvestment in the [department] is currently all the more inviting in view of research opportunities in human biology and evolution, and the central place that these sciences may assume in the development of Curriculum 2000.”

At the heart of the issue is how the department will be funded—and by whom. Much of the department’s funding is shared between Arts and Sciences and the medical school.

As BAA shifts fully into one school, Arts and Sciences will assume the responsibility for all of the department’s operational funding, even as the school confronts a multi-million dollar budget deficit.

Additional funds come from NSF grants, but will not be enough to fund the department without medical school support.

Steve Churchill, associate professor of BAA and director of undergraduate studies, said the department

“Disinvestment in these endeavors will represent frank abandonment of a part of [the University’s] inheritance as a center for science and scholarship.

Duke would be forfeiting its international standing as a center for the study of human and non-human primate evolution, and in this light, disinvestment surely cannot be an option,” the report reads.

The report further notes that in its first 12 years the department had developed “world-class programs” in undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral

IRAQ from page 2 Casting aside diplomatic ambiguity, Powell spoke directly of war. “Iraq has a responsibility now to avoid a conflict, to avoid a war,” he said.

The UN. inspectors, by contrast, have said they were making progress in their searches, may require months more of time, and have referred to the report due next Monday as only an interim report.

Some 16 chemical weapons warheads have been di-

vulged by Iraq, a move taken by the inspectors as a sign of cooperation.

But Powell brushed that aside. He said of the Iraqis: “We cannot let them dribble out this information, dribble these warheads out.”

Iraq knows how many weapons of mass destruction it has hidden away, Powell said, “We will not allow Iraq to frustrate the will ofthe world.”

Separately, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld dismissed suggestions that U.N. weapons inspectors would need months of additional time to determine whether Iraq is meeting its obligation to disarm.

“The burden of proof is on Iraq to prove that it is disarming,” Rumsfeld said in a speech to a Reserve Officers Association conference. “Thus far they have been unwilling to do so.”

British Foreign Minister Jack Straw, in his U.N. speech, said it was important to “wait and see what the inspectors actually say,” but he emphasized that “time is running out for Saddam Hussein.”

“This game of hide-and-seek has got to stop and there’s got to be complete, active, positive compliance

by Iraq with the obligations imposed on Iraq by this Security Council,” he said. Straw spoke as Britain announced it was sending 26,000 troops to the Persian Gulf in preparation for possible military action against Iraq.

Other Europeans said they had yet to be convinced war would not make things worse.

“We have no illusions about the brutal nature of Saddam Hussein’s regime,” German Foreign Minister Joschka Fisher said during a daylong Security Council meeting on counterterrorism. But, he said, We are greatly concerned that a military strike against the regime in Baghdad would involve considerable and unpredictable risks for the global fight on terrorism.”

French Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin said he believed Iraq could still be disarmed through peaceful means. We believe that today, nothing justifies envisaging military action.... As long as you can make progress with the inspectors and get cooperation, there’s no point in choosing the worst possible so-

lution—military intervention.”

Resolution 1441, crafted by Washington and London and passed by a unanimous Security Council in November, warns Iraq of “serious consequences,” if it fails to comply with inspections.

has nevertheless garnered more NSF funds than any other biological anthropology department in the nation, with the exception of the State University of New York at Stony Brook.

Churchill expressed frustration that the deans’ cutbacks would predetermine the department’s decline and that scholars would shun the chance to come to Duke, given the signals the administration has sent.

“I really love Duke. This is the fourth institution I’ve been at, and there’s something really special at Duke,” Churchill said. “I’m so motivated to do great things here, but every time I turn around, I have to deal with

these things from Chafe.”

He also noted that paleontologists and organismal biologists situated in BAA are well-placed to contribute to the University’s genomics initiative and its strategic goal to build the sciences at Duke.

“If one of the goals is to increase the sciences and the life sciences are already strong, why cut a demonstrably excellent department in the life sciences?”

Churchill asked.

The Chronicle

PAGE 18 � TUESDAY, JANUARY 21, 2003

The Chronicle A successful campaign With an effort that began in 1996, Duke’s capital campaign reached its overall $2 billion goal last week, capping a monumental achievement for the administration

The

Campaign for Duke reached its long-awaited $2 billion goal last week, bringing about the latest milestone in the ambitious capital campaign that began only a few very short

years ago

President Nan Keohane kicked off the quiet phase ofthe campaign in 1996, speculating privately that the campaign would bring in far less than it eventually did. By the time the administration was ready to go public with the campaign, its early success prompted the administration to raise the goal to $1.5 billion.

Two years later, flush with cash in a campaign that had been even more successful in a charged economy, the University raised its goal again to $2 billion and raised many of the individual goals for each school and other key targets, such as athletics, libraries and financial aid.

With more than 11 months left before the campaign ends in December, and some of those targets—such as Arts and Sciences and the libraries—not quite at their goals, it is nevertheless safe to declare that the campaign has been a sweeping success.

All over campus, members of the University community can tell how the capital campaign has already made a difference—from the buildings that have been constructed to those that will soon be finished, to the rapidly growing faculties of many schools and the implementation of the strategic plan that will hopefully strengthen Duke’s sciences and engineering and make Duke more of an international player in higher education.

No one deserves more praise for the campaign’s success than Keohane, whose tireless efforts have been the hallmark of her tenure as president. Virtually equalling her work is John Piva, senior vice president for alumni affairs and development, the architect of the campaign. Although Piva has remained firmly behind the scenes for the campaign, his planning has brought together every unit at Duke into a cohesive and marvelously efficient network.

Impressively, none ofthe senior development officers have left the school in mid-campaign and Piva’s team has remained singularly focused throughout the entire process.

In addition, Duke’s investment team has been incredible in its investment of the endowment—especially while the economy was still going strong —thus extending the power that Duke’s campaign funds have had.

As the campaign pushes forward into its final thrust, it should work to fill the final buckets that it has not filled and even look toward raising funds for initiatives that have surfaced in recent years, such as renovations to West Campus student space and providing more fellowships for graduate students.

William Safire Guest Commentary You won’t find television magazine programs fearlessly exposing the broadcast lobby’s pressure on Congress and the courts to allow station owners to gobble up more stations and cross-own local newspapers, thereby to determine what information residents of a local market receive.

Should we reduce choices

(The following figures were published by Gannett’s USA Today, which kind of blunts my point about big-media squeamishness, but its account of the FCC’s ruination of independent radio is damning.)

Back in 1996, the two largest radio chains owned 115 stations; today, those two own more than 1,400. A handful of leading owners used to generate only a fifth of industry revenue; now these top five rake in 55 percent of all money spent on local radio. The number of station owners has plummeted by a third. Yesterday’s programming diversity on the public’s airwaves has degenerated to the Top 40, as today’s consolidating commodores borrowing public property say “the public interest be damned.”

Granted, Rush Limbaugh’s views differ from those heard on liberal NPR, just as an indie movie producer can make money for a cookie-cutter conglomerate with a film going against the grain. But while political paranoids accuse each other of vast conspira-

(gasp!) pro-regulation?

Michael Powell, appointconed by Bush to be FCC chairman, likes to say “the market is my relito gion.” My conservative economic religion is founded on the rock of which—competition, since Teddy Roosevelt’s day—has protected small business and consumers against predatory pricing leading to market monopolization.

One of the Democrats on the FCC, Michael Copps, is concerned that “we’re relying on institutions to cover this debate which have interests in the outcome of the debate.”

That inherent conflict of interest is why I have long been banging my spoon against the highchair.

Republicans in the House, intimidated by the powerful broadcast lobby, don’t admit that some regulation can be pro-business; neither does the D.C. Court, of Appeals, which wants further “granulating of evidence” that endless merging harms competition. In the Senate, Kay Bailey Hutchison, RTexas, grasps this. Perhaps Commerce Chairman John McCain will see T.R.’s trustbusting light and start heavy granulating in hearings—before merger mania afflicts TV and film the way it is debilitating local radio.

“Luddite nonsense,” answer many merging movie mogul and media magnates, as they point to the seemingly fierce competition from the Internet and the proliferation of cable channels.

Tell that to the purchasers of political advertising; The big bucks go into broadcast TV, with its unmatchable cost per thousand viewers. And stop to examine the highly hyped “competition” that consolidating media profess to fear: The leading 20 Internet sites and biggest cable channels are already owned by the expansive likes of GENBC, Disney, Fox, Gannett, AOL Time Warner, Hearst, Microsoft, Cox, Dow Jones, The Washington Post and The New York Times. (Is there anyone I haven’t offended?)

Ah, counter the trust-trusters, but most people want the conglomerates they trust to provide the content they watch and read. As for diversity—don’t 16,000 local radio stations provide much of the vaunted diversity of views and tastes that Americans want?

Take a listen to what’s happened to local radio in one short wave of deregulation: The great cacophony of different sounds and voices is being amalgamated and homogenized.

Commentary

The Chronicle

Let’s forget for a moment the rhetoric coming from North Korea. All that talk about belligerent American imperialism and thinly veiled threats to turn its southern neighbor into a radioactive wasteland are not very helpful for constructive diplomacy, but they are also irrelevant. In the case of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea—which is, incidentally, neither demoiPWIIk cratic nor a republic 1.only deeds matter, not words. What the DPRK % has been doing since last fall is illegal and inapPavel propriate, but the United States can offer a Molchanov straightforward solution z~r.

Poll lcsand to the ongoing nuclear Other Means standoff. All Washington needs to do now is, quite simply, offer —

'

Pyongyang a bribe.

Some will label this appeasement.

Some will call it negotiating under duress. And some will point out that Kim Jong-11 and his cronies have proven themselves untrustworthy. Of these arguments, the third is the most pertinent. There is no denying that the DPRK violated the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, abrogated the 1994 Agreed Framework accord with the United States and defied the will of UN. nuclear inspectors. When Iraq committed only one of these offenses, it was threatened with “serious consequences” by Washington and the Security Council.

The Bush administration has therefore been accused of a double standard for threatening war on Iraq but not the DPRK when both are blatantly in breach of international law. But in fact, the administration has rightly recognized that whereas Baghdad responds only to a stick, Pyongyang can be controlled by means of a carrot. It worked for eight years after 1994, and if the United States offers the right carrot this time, North Korea will be off the geopolitical radar screen for the foreseeable future.

TUESDAY. JANUARY 21, 2003 �PAGE 19

Let’s make a deal Unlike Saddam, Kim has no serious aspirations to regional hegemony. Stuck between most powerful country and one of America’s closest allies, even he knows that this would not be a feasible objective. Like any dictator, Kim wants to remain in power, for which he needs the help of the world’s fourth biggest military. The problem is that a chronically mismanaged economy has led to certain, shall we say, budgetary constraints for the DPRK defense establishment. In what bears some resemblance to the “more bang for the buck” theory of Eisenhower, current DPRK policy requires a nuclear deterrent to offset a degraded ability to wage conventional war. The key point here is that the only real purpose of such an arsenal would be to prevent a U.S. invasion. It’s not that the United States would want to invade in the first place, but Kim’s paranoia demands this extra bit of insurance.

Of course, Washington is never excited about new members forcing their way into the exclusive nuclear club, particularly those that spout the rhetoric of Marx as their only justification for staying in power. In the case of the DPRK, there is the additional risk of a nuclear arms race on the Korean peninsula, not to mention the close proximity of North Korean ballistic missiles to Japan and the U.S. Pacific Fleet. Keeping the DPRK’s nuclear arms program from coming to fruition, therefore, is a sensible goal of this administration, much like the last one. President George W. Bush’s only miscalculation in handling this matter is his refusal to offer tangible concessions to Pyongyang.

What might those concessions be? First of all, no one is seriously contemplating a US.-withdrawal from South Korea, not even Kim. A non-aggression pact would be a good start, along with a resumption of fuel oil shipments to bolster the DPRK’s energy-starved economy. These measures are neither expensive nor dangerous for U.S. interests in East Asia. On the other

hand, they represent a show of good faith and—here goes Kim’s paranoia again—reassure the Communist regime that it has nothing to fear from the United States, as long as it behaves itself.

I’m not suggesting that we build our foreign policy around mollifying fears of the world’s tyrants, but if Kim really wants a peace treaty, he can have it. The administration has already declared its intention to deal with this matter peacefully, so a formal pact would be entirely consistent with current policy. The idea of signing another solemn agreement with a man who has broken the last one may seem distasteful, but it is far preferable to the alternative of continued nuclear tensions—or worse—in Korea. Such a peace treaty would also facilitate a final settlement of the Korean War, something our allies in the region have sought for decades.Both Tokyo and the new government in Seoul want nothing more than a quiet end to this whole affair—the quintessential Nixonian “peace with honor.”

For Kim, such an outcome would also be a win-win proposition. He can avoid the

expense of building and maintaining an arsenal of nukes while winning invaluable propaganda points for respecting the will of the United Nations. The latter will be a necessity if he expects financial aid from his wealthy neighbors to rebuild his country’s decrepit infrastructure.

The Bush administration has already announced that it is willing to enter into a dialogue with the DPRK on the nuclear issue. All it needs to do now is take the next step and declare that it would be amenable to some negotiated accommodation. There is much that Washington can offer Pyongyang, but it would also get something that is just as valuable in return. Talk, after all, is cheap. A major war on the Korean peninsula, on the other hand, would not be. Quite simply, pragmatism dictates that offering a small carrot is sometimes more effective than waving a big stick. In this case, there is certainly no shame in compromise.

Did my determined flipping through webpages mark some sort of obsession, an unhealthy desire to immerse myself in morbid information? I don’t think so. I began looking so that I could let go, but my quest makes me question our views on protection and privacy, and how the way we use them reflects our values.

Why, for instance, do we keep the names of sexual assault victims under such wraps? We consider sexual assault an ultimate invasion of privacy and don’t want to display the victim’s invasion further; this I understand. There’s also the depressing truth that disclosure of the victim’s identity puts her or him at more risk.

But by encouraging that sort of silence, we perpetuate the idea that sexual assault victims need to carry a burden of shame, because silence, to me, connotes guilt, or at least something to hide. We might have the Fifth Amendment to protect us, but anyone who takes it all but shouts their criminal complicity from the eaves.

We’re about to go to war over Saddam’s silence about his supposed warheads. This is a country that values openness to the extreme.

In away I appreciate the silence that surrounds that sloppy-drunk driver, because it tells us that he isn’t worth dealing with outside of his drunk-driver label. I’m beginning to realize that I don’t want to know his name or whether he has kids or if he takes good care of his dog. I don’t really want him to be human.

And as long as I keep him shrouded, he’s not.
