The win capped off Duke’s first ever undefeated ACC season and secured the Blue Devils’ first regular-season conference title since 1999. Duke will square off against North Carolina as the top seed for the ACC Championship beginning April 29 in Baltimore. The near-capacity crowd witnessed a contest that was never in doubt, as Duke kept the ball in its attacking zone for the majority of the first halfand outshot the Cavaliers 42-21 over the course of the game.

Following the women’s lead, the Duke men made history Sunday. Behind a championship-winning performance by junior Ryan Blaum, the Blue Devils won their first ACC championship since 1966 and the first of head coach Rod Myers’ 32year tenure. Blaum’s individual victory was the first by a Blue Devil since 1999 and the third with Myers’ at the helm. “This feels really sweet,” Myers said. “It’s very special when you’ve waited this long. It really means a lot to me. We all think of the ACC as the top conference in the country. Winning this title is a cherished thing. You know you’ve validated yourself.” After entering the final day in a first-place tie with Georgia Tech, Duke pulled away, beating the field by four strokes.

The national debate about steroids in baseball hit Duke this weekend, but players, athletic officials and experts reflecting on revelations in Duke’s program paint a picture of a larger phenomenon across college baseball. Over the past three years, allegations and questions about steroid use have swirled around Major League Baseball. Former MVP Ken Caminiti admitted in 2002 that he used steroids, and reports have surfaced that Barry Bonds and Jason Giambi confessed to using designer steroids. Jose Canseco called out himself and others in a bestselling book, and a Congressional hearing in March addressed post-steroid suicide and the league’s new enforcement policy, which has since resulted in the suspension of two major leaguers. But the same players who admitted to using or knowing of steroid use at Duke in a report published in The Chronicle Friday said the failing Blue Devils program was never the epicenter of a pervasive, ca-

Men take stand

against assault by

Ryan McCartney THE CHRONICLE

A year and a half ago, an anonymous Duke student wrote an editorial asking victims of sexual assault to step forward with their stories. Women responded, as did a surprising number of men. Events from that time touched off a renewed campaign on campus against sexual assault. Perhaps the most noticeable trend at Duke, though, has been the prominent participation of men in this movement. In recent years, Men Acting for Change and the publication “Saturday Night; Untold Stories of Sexual Assault at Duke” have sprung up as a means ofaddressfY.ry.r*r.r.wY.¥

ing rape on campus and off. Both initiatives are part of the overarching Sexual Assault Support Services. “It’s been exciting to watch men slowly, increasingly, step up and become involved and to watch Men Acting for Change’s visibility on campus grow,” said Jean Leonard, SASS coordinator. “I think it is essential that men step forward. Ending violence against women is a men’s issue. Men perpetrate most interpersonal violence. Men are directly hurt by violence. Men are hurt when the women they love are hurt by violence. And men have so much power to make a difference.”

Iraqi security forces seal Madain by

KhaliD Mohammed

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Iraqi security NEAR MADAIN, Iraq forces backed by U.S. troops had the town ofMadain surrounded Sunday after reports ofSunni militant kidnappings of as many as 100 Shiites residents, but there were growing indications the incident had been grossly exaggerated, perhaps an outgrowth of a tribal dispute or political maneuvering. The town of about 1,000 families, evenly divided between Shiites and Sunnis, sits about 15 miles south of the capital in what the U.S. military has called the “Triangle of Death” because it has become a roiling stronghold of the militant insurgency.

An AP photographer and television cameraman who were in or near the town Sunday said large numbers of Iraqi forces had sealed it off, supported by U.S. forces farther away on the edge ofMadain. The cameraman said he toured the town Sunday morning. People were going about their business normally, shops were open and tea houses were full, he said. Residents contacted by telephone also said everything was normal in Madain. And American military officials said they were unaware of any U.S. role in what had been described as a tense sectarian standoff in which the Sunni militants were threatening to kill their Shiite captives if all

other Shiites did not leave the town The confusion illustrated how quickly rumors spread in a country of deep ethnic and sectarian divides, where the threat of violence is all too real. Poor telephone communications, and the difficulty of traveling from one town to the next because of daily attacks on the roads make it difficult even for government officials to establish the facts. National Security Minister Qassim Dawoud warned Parliament of attempts to draw the country into sectarian war and said three battalions of Iraqi soldiers, police and U.S. forces were sent to Madain. He said the Iraqi military was planning an assault on the region by the week’s end.

Sex offender charged in death of girl by

Vickie Chachere

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A registered sex ofRUSKIN, Fla. fender confessed to killing a 13-year-old girl who disappeared a week ago, saying he got into an argument with her and he choked her to death in her home, the sheriff said Sunday. David Onstott, 36, was charged with firstdegree murder Sunday, a day after investigators found Sarah Lunde’s partially clothed body in an abandoned fish pond, Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee said. Sarah was last seen April 9, shordy after returning home from a church trip. Early

the next morning, Onstott paid an unexpected visit to the family’s home to look for Sarah's mother, Kelly May Lunde, whom he once dated, Gee said. After Sarah let Onstott into the house, they got into an argument and Onstott put her in a choke hold and killed her, Gee said. ‘You are talking about a person who would murder a child. Who knows what’s in his mind,” Gee said, who didn't give further details of the confession. Sarah's 17-year-old brother came home later and found the front door wide open and his sister gone, but the family initially assumed Sarah had gone to a friend's house.

She was not reported missing until Monday. Gee said Onstott “went to great effort to keep her body from being discovered.” Onstott, who is also faced with a rape conviction, has been held without bail in the Hillsborough County Jail since Tuesday on unrelated charges. Sarah’s relatives and members of her First Apostolic Church congregation turned out in droves Sunday to tearfully mourn the loss of the girl. Her young friends dropped to their knees and wept. Sarah's mother was too shaken to talk Sunday, but her brother Larry May said: “It's devastating, it's just unbelievable.”

Seniors

donate at record rate by

Elizabeth McCoy THE CHRONICLE

The Class of 2005 is just weeks away from graduating and leaving the Gothic Wonderland. But before they go, this year’s seniors are being asked to give a last bit ofcash to Duke. Thus far, 484 students—about 30 percent of the Class of 2005—have each contributed $20.05 to the Duke Annual Fund. Only 250 seniors had donated by this time last year. “Most Duke students have had a pretty good time here, and it’s all about giving back to Duke” said senior Anthony Vitarelli, outgoing Campus Council president and co-chair of the Senior Gift Committee. The Senior Gift Committee is comprised of 91 seniors led by Vitarelli and Rachel Decker. Since starting its campaign a few weeks ago, the committee has sent out e-mails and talked with seniors in person to solicit contributions, Vitarelli said. All proceeds for the gift are funneled directly to the Duke Annual Fund, which is an unrestricted account available for use by deans and directors that goes to expenses that tuition does not cover. These expenses include FOCUS programs, financial aid, classroom equipment, faculty support and information technology. Heather Bennett, director of the Duke Annual Fund Young Alumni Program, credited the high yield of this year’s campaign to the committee’s terrific effort in leading the drive. “The Class of 2005 has tremendous unity and a genuine sense of gratitude for their Duke experience, evident by the success of the campaign so far,” Bennett wrote in an e-mail.

Ex-GE chief tells students how to win BY ORCUN UNLU THE CHRONICLE

Jack Welch, often called one of America’s best businessmen, stopped by Duke Friday afternoon to promote his new book, Winning. Even though it has been nearly four years since Welch retired as CEO of General Electric, more than 850 people packed GeneenAuditorium and the overflow rooms in the Fuqua School of Business to hear him speak. In his speech, Welch talked about leadership, winning strategies and how to run a business, drawing examples from his personal experiences.

He told prospective managers at Fuqua that their obligation as leaders is to make sure that every employee knows where he stands within the company. The business legend noted the importance of telling the middle staff of a company how they could be better, perhaps by grading the employees. “Why are we not grading our mature boys?” Welch asked, explaining that evaluation should not stop after education. “Business is no different than a sport,” he told the audience. “The team with the best players does the best job.” Welch also told the listeners how to maintain staff members by stating goals

Funds dictate LDOC bands by

Gabriel Chen

THE CHRONICLE

Senior Eric Schwartz cannot wait for April 27 to come. One of his favorite bands—Collective Soul—will headline this year’s Last Day of Classes. “They’re one of the bands that I’ve known and heard every day on the radio since I was in middle school,” Schwartz said. Popular in the 19905, Collective Soul is best known for the hit song “Shine.” Weekend Excursion will open for Collective Soul. The Raleighbased rock band, which performed at Duke two years ago, will play for the first hour. But some students question whether the bands stack up to those playing at other colleges’ last day concerts.

At Cornell University, rappers Snoop Dogg and The Game will headline Slope Day 2005 in May. “Snoop Dogg’s a persona,” Steve Blake, president of Cornell’s Slope Day programming board, told The Chronicle. “[Snoop] has a cultural presence in the entertainment industry.... So far, we’ve received positive response from our students about his coming here to perform.” At Yale University, students will get the chance to watch The Shins, O.A.R. and beatboxer Rahzel—a member of the group The Roots at the school’s annual Spring Fling April 26. The Shins’ music was recently featured on the soundtrack to the film Garden State. The Shins, Ben Folds and Howie Day are just a few of the —

acts that will perform at Brown

University during its Spring Weekend festivities. Duke senior Matt Greenfield, chair of the LDOC committee, said Collective Soul and Weekend Excursion are as good—if not better —choices for LDOC as the acts other schools selected. “We considered The Shins, but they had very little campus appeal according to our survey,” Greenfield said. “Snoop Dogg was not considered because of the flop that Kanye West was last year, and Ben Folds came a few months ago to Page. For Howie Day, we considered them very highly for the opener, but they were unavailable.” Greenfield pointed to a lack of SEE LDOC ON PAGE 12

Harvard professor criticizes top scholars by

Andrew Gerst

and Emily Rotberg THE CHRONICLE

The biggest obstacles on the road to peace in Israel, Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz said Sunday, do not reside in refugee camps, Israel Defense Forces outposts or Jewish settlements—but in elite university academic departments. “Anti-Semitism from the far right is largely a thing of the past,” said Dershowitz, who is also the author of The Case for Israel. “But anti-Semitism from the far left is becoming a very, very, very serious thing.” Dershowitz, speaking widt intense passion, said anti-Semitism has plagued the rhetoric of a number of prominent professors who question Israel’s treatment of its

Palestinian population. In particular, he denounced the language used by professors Noam Chomsky of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Norman Finkelstein of DePaul University and the late Edward Said, formerly of Columbia University. By oversimplifying the conflict between Palestinian Arabs and Israeli Jews into a case of oppressed and oppressor, Dershowitz said, these professors have worked toward creating a climate where Israel will be perceived in decades to come as an illegitimate nation. “I wish I didn’t have to write a case for Israel,” he said. “Nobody has to write the case for Canada.” Dershowitz spoke before an audience SEE AUTHOR ON PAGE 8

WELCH from page 3 going to be about you; when you become a leader, it’s going to be about them,” he said. Welch added that teaching a staff and watching employees develop is one of the greatest experiences of being a leader. The businessman later said the biggest factor in his success was that when he did not know the answers, he knew how to follow his senses. “You've got to go with your instincts. Believe in it... and go with it,” Welch said. He said that “the media and Washington got everything backwards” about corporate regulations and that companies

should not be hindered by any type of laws regarding their workers’ welfare. Welch admitted that buying an investment bank was the worst business move he made in his career. “It didn’t match our cultural needs,” he said. “I maintain that the cultural analysis is equally important as the financial analysis... because culture comes up in deals.” Welch reminded his audience that the education they receive at Duke could guarantee them jobs they would be comfortable in, if they make finding employers they work well with a priority. “Don’t become a victim of the company,” Welch said. “If you are graduating from Duke, you are

getting an MBA or other degrees, you can’t ever be a victim.” Since retiring in 2001, Welch has written two books, Winning and Jack: Straightfrom the Gut. Welch and his wife Suzy, who co-authored Winning, signed nearly a thousand copies of the book after the speech. The book covers hiring and firing, making unpopular decisions and managing the work-life balance. Phil Lamport, a second-year business student, said he appreciated the opportunity to hear Welch speak as part of Fuqua Distinguished Speakers Series. “Jack Welch is a very famous person, but you never know how he really is,” Lamport said. “His speech helped to put a face on the guy.”

AUTHOR from page 4 ofabout 200 in Page Auditorium and later ate dinner with students at the Freeman Center for Jewish Life. After the speech, a line extended around the quad as audience members waited for Dershowitz to sign copies of several of his books. During both the speech and dinner, Dershowitz reiterated his praise for the Duke Jewish community’s measured response to the Palestine Solidarity Movement conference, which came to campus in October. “You didn’t try to censor, you tried to answer—and I think you won,” Dershowitz told stu-

dents dining with him He continued to commend the group, saying that he believed theirresponse to PSM will serve as a model for future reactions by Jewish student groups. In a question-and-answer session following the speech, Dershowitz said he would in theory support a university policy calling for divestment from all nations and companies with unethical practices—but that Israel would fall at the very end of such a list. “If any university did divest out of Israel, they know that [supporters of Israel] would divest out of them, and with impunity,” Dershowitz said.

Duke captures 10th straight ACC title by 47 strokes by

Patrick Byrnes THE CHRONICLE

Once again, the women’s golf team’s ACC rivals just couldn’t match up. Over the weekend, top-ranked Duke won its 10th consecutive ACC Championship in dominating fashion, topping second-place Wake Forest. Duke’s 47-shot win was its largest margin of victory in school history, including its previous 12 ACC titles. “We feel very good about our performance this weekend,” head coach Dan Brooks said. “It was a challenging course, and there were some difficult conditions.” The tournament was held at the Carmel Country Club in Charlotte, N.C., for the first time and the Blue Devils had no troubling adapting. Duke’s top four golfers took the top four positions, and No. 2 Brittany Lang captured her second consecutive individual ACC Championship. The sophomore has now won six tournaments in her collegiate career and is tied with No. 3 Liz Janangelo for third on Duke’s all-time list. Lang, with her three

victories this year, is a leading candidate for National Player of the Year honors, an award that Janangelo received in 2004. The Blue Devils opened play in Sunday’s final round leading the Demon Deacons by 34 strokes. All five golfers shot four over or better as they pulled away from the seven other ACC squads. At the beginning of the last round, Lang was in third, two strokes behind leaders and teammates Janangelo and Anna Grzebien. The sophomore fired a toumament-best, two-under 70, giving her a final tally of three over par, one better than second-place finisher Grzebien. “I really didn’tfeel I played that well the first two days,” Lang said. “But in my final round, I got the ball right next to the pin a bunch and didn’t need to putt much.” The team’s only senior, Niloufar Aazam-Zanganeh, carded the only other under-par round of the tournament Saturday. After sitting out the Bryan National Collegiate April 1 to 3 with tendinitis in her wrist, she started the tournament with a disappointing six-over 78. Encouraged

by her Saturday rebound, however, the senior took fourth place, her best finish since winning the Lady Gamecock Classic her freshman year. “She’s been unable to play for about a month,” Brooks said. “It’s amazing that she was able to keep her mind in the right place and keep her game so sharp.” Winning the tournament, Lang turned in nine birdies, tying eighth-place finisher Jennifer Pandolfi for the Duke lead. Pandolfi battled some inconsistency on the weekend, tallying five double bogeys, but the freshman saw her score decrease every day—79, 76 and a final round 74. “I would have liked to have played better, but it was great that I improved each day,” Pandolfi said. “I need to work on my mental game because sometimes after I birdie a hole, I feel like the game is too easy and I lose my aggression.” janangelo fired her best round during the cold and windy conditions Saturday. The junior carded four consecutive birdies to finish the front nine but faltered on the first two holes of the back nine.

With a four-over 76 Sunday, Janangelo lost her share of first place and came in third, but she still claimed her third team ACC Championship in as many years. “It was really exciting to win this as a team,” Janangelo said. “This is something I’ll remember the rest of my life.” Grzebien continued her hot play on the weekend. Having spent time atop the leaderboard with Janangelo, the sophomore took home second place, tying a personal best set earlier this year. After winning 7-of-9 regular-season tournaments and now the ACC Championship, Duke will set its sights on the team’s third national championship, the school’s seventh. Last year the Blue Devils enjoyed similar regular-season success, winning every tournament they competed in, including the ACC Championship. But in the NCAA Championship, they finished a disappointing third. “I think we’ll need to play even better to win a championship,” Brooks said. “But I still feel like we’re in a good position.”

THE CHRONICLE

A pair of Pac-10 programs looked to Duke in an attempt to jumpstart their women’s basketball programs. Oregon State signed Duke assistant LaVonda Wagner to a five-year contract Friday, and California inked a deal with former Blue Devils’ assistant and Richmond head coach Joanne Boyle the same day. When Boyle left Duke after the 20012002 season to lead the Richmond program, Duke head coach Gail Goestenkors recruited Wagner from an associate head coaching position at Illinois. In her past three seasons at Duke, Wagner has worked primarily with the team’s post players and has had an extensive role in recruiting top talent to Duke. “We are extremely excited to get a person of LaVonda’s credentials,” Oregon State Director of Athletics Bob De Carolis said. “One of the things that impressed me was the fact that she made the move from Illinois as associate head coach, to going back to being an assistant at Duke to get a different perspective. She’s had a meticulous game plan to get back to being a head coach.” At Richmond, Boyle proved that former Goestenkors assistants could make successful head coaches. She has led the Spiders to three consecutive 20-win campaigns, and this past year she took her team to its first NCAA Tournament in 14 seasons. Cal finished just lj-18 this season, prompting the school to dismiss head coach Caren Horstmeyer. “I’m excited about the possibility to build a nationally-regarded program at Cal,” Boyle said. “I couldn’t ask for a better package —a top-10 recruiting class, a beautiful campus and an athletic director who is committed to the women’s basketball team becoming a national contender. The situation reminds me a lot of the potential at Duke when Gail Goestenkors took over 12 years ago. It’s a gold mine waiting to happen. I couldn’t ask for a better fit.” Before moving to Richmond, Boyle spent nine years coaching under Goestenkors, accompanying the Blue Devils to their first two Final Fours.

DAN RYAN/THE CHRONICLE

LaVonda Wagner became the head coach at Oregon State Friday, leaving Duke after three seasons.

Hours after The Chronicle reported that two former players admitted to using steroids, the current Blue Devils were forced to push thoughts of the story out of their minds and take the field against yet anMARYLAND J_ other ACC rival. As the buzz 5 DUKE continued to swirl around the team, Duke (11-27, 3-15 in the ACC) tried to focus on a threegame series with Maryland (16-22, 5-16) and improve its conference record. In the end, Duke did just that, taking two of the three games against the Terps to win their first ACC series of the season. “I think everybody feels pretty good right now,” head coach Bill Hillier said. “I’m happy for my kids, they’ve responded well in the last few days.’ After eking out a 2-1 victory over Maryland Friday, the Terrapins pummeled Duke 13-3 in the second game of the series. In Sunday’s rubber match, however, Duke sailed to a 6-1 victory on the arm of David Torcise and the bat of Javier Socorro. In the first inning it looked like it was going to be another shaky outing for Torcise, whose recent inconsistency moved Hillier to skip the sophomore’s start last week against Clemson. With two outs, Terrapins Will Frazier and Jordan Wilson recorded back-to-back doubles to give Maryland an early 1-0 lead. Torcise would settle down, however, and Frazier would be the only Terrapin to cross the plate. The sophomore threw seven strong innings, showing few of the control problems that had earned him a 6.97 ERA heading into Sunday’s start. Torcise allowed only one run on seven hits and one walk while fanning five batters. “He stepped up for us big time,” Hillier said of his southpaw, who had not had a win since Feb. 13. “In his career, that might have been as good a performance as he’s had.” After Socorro tied the game up at one with a soaring home run over the leftfield wall, the Blue Devils took control of the game, scoring four runs in the bot-

Duke shut down an offense that was averaging nearly 13 goals per contest entering the game, handing Virginia its worst loss since 1959. Ten differentBlue Devils found the net in the rout as freshman Zack Greer led the way with four goals. “What a great day—reunion weekend, we had 95 alums back, Senior Day —you couldn’t draw a better picture,” Pressler said. “Honestly, I was very shocked the score got away like that. I would never in my right mind picture that that would happen.” With 7:15 remaining in the second quarter and Duke (12-1, 3-0 in the ACC) leading Virginia 4-0, Blue Devil midfielder Michael Ward turned the ball over in Duke’s defensive zone. Cavalier attackman Matt Ward picked up the loose ball and hurried toward the goal with fellow attackman John Christmas alongside. Only Duke goalie Aaron Fenton stood in their way.

sive sparkplug at the top of the order for the entire game, going 3-for-4 with three RBIs, two runs and a steal. The junior is on a tear, with a hit in 17 of his last 37 at-bats. “When you’ve got a guy in the leadoff slot who is getting on base for you or leading off with a solo home run, it helps a bunch,” Hillier said. With an offense in constant motion, of the game, cutting the Duke advantage to three and giving the visitors some much-needed momentum. Fenton would not allow it, however, as the senior stepped up and intercepted Ward’s poor crossing pass. Every time it appeared Virginia (8-2, 2-1) might make a play to somehow mount a comeback, Fenton or another member of the Blue Devil defense would step up to make a stop. Duke’s defense was so dominant that it held the Cavaliers to a mere four shots in the first half and without a score for the first 43 minutes of the game. “That’s the best ‘D’ we’ve played all year,” Fenton said. “That makes my job a lot easier, makes me a lot more confident knowing that we aren’t going to give up bad shots.” Only 40 seconds after Fenton’s goalsaving interception, Duke junior Kyle Dowd found Greer open in front of the Virginia net. Greer quickly turned and fired a shot over the left shoulder of Cavalier goalie Kip Turner to give the Blue Devils a 5-0 lead that they would extend to seven by halftime. “Our offense has been great all year, and today was obviously an example of that,” Greer said. “Everybody was moving

the ball like we have all year. We were just running the offense like we do and find-

ing the open man, and that seemed to be working for us today.” Duke carried its first-half momentum into the opening minutes of the third quarter, when sophomore Matt Danowski split two defenders to give the Blue Devils an eight-goal lead. Danowski added another goal, his third straight, 90 seconds later by bouncing the ball over Turner’s head and into the net. “I thought it was crucial that we scored those two goals right out of halftime to never allow Virginia to get back in it,” Pressler said. “That was the key to the game.” Although Duke’s aggressive defense created a number of steals, Virginia compounded its problems with many unforced errors and missed opportunities. The Cavaliers may meet the Blue Devils again in the finals of the ACC Tournament, and Virginia head coach Dom Starsia said he hoped to see a better effort from his team in the future. “I give Duke all the credit in the world, they played great today,” Starsia said. “They’re the best team to play against us this year, but I don’t think we put up much of a fight.”

testing from just football and track and field to all sports. Duke began its own scheduled testing in 1999 or 2000 but has not invoked its ability to test while athletes are not in school, said Brad Berndt, assistant athletic director and Duke’s testing coordinator. “They all go and play summer baseball, mixing with players from other programs, some of whom apparently are pretty heavily into various kinds of performance-enhancing drugs,” said Chris Kennedy, senior associate athletic director, who met with groups of Duke baseball players on several occasions to investigate problems including substance abuse. “I got a sense out of [meeting with players] that there is, as there is in other sports, sort of what’s in the water is: If you want to compete, this is what you need to do at this level.” The second unnamed current player estimated that other teams had more extensive steroid use than Duke. “Just from my experience in baseball, I know all the steroids are done over the summer,” said the player, who has participated in summer leagues with other ACC players. “I know that this last summer a dozen on my baseball team were doing steroids.”

later attempted suicide. “The baseball players that are out of the baseball circle now just laugh at the fact that people are just now finding out about it. You go to any college campus, and I guarantee you will find people doing steroids. It is much more prevalent than people are aware of.” In the report about the Duke baseball program, current and former players said steroid use reached its peak in the summer of 2002. Kempster and former teammate Grant Stanley said they had discussions about their steroid use with top Athletic Department officials, who increased drug testing of baseball players after Stanley was arrested for steroid possession in Fall 2002. The steroid issue on Duke’s baseball team likely mirrored what was transpiring across the ACC and the nation, said Charles Yesalis, a professor of health policy and administration and exercise and sport science at Penn State and a leading expert on steroids in sports. “Strength training has been in segments of college baseball starting in the late ’7os and early ’Bos. Steroids came into pro baseball in the ’Bos, and we started to pick it up in college baseball in the early ’9os,” said Yesalis, who has written several books on the culture of performance-enhancing drugs. “I think it parallels to a great extent because of this cascading-down effect, and steroids in baseball is no secret unless someone lives in a cave.” A 2001 NCAA survey of college athletes’ substance abuse habits reported 2.3 percent of baseball players said they took anabolic steroids, up from 1.9 percent in 1997 and 0.7 percent in 1993. Still a pit stop? As a result of Duke’s increased testing of baseball players and the program’s inability to recruit as many potential major league prospects as it once did, current players said that if steroid users remain in the Duke program, they are quiet about their use. One current player, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said he thought two of his teammates might be using steroids. He declined to identify them, but he said there are “definitely a lot less” than earlier in his Duke career. An-

Smart, soft kids don’t want to do steroids.” Earlier in head coach Bill Hillier’s term, however, his emphasis on strength training and alleged implicit encouragement of steroid use—an accusation he denied—may have resonated more soundly with a group of top recruits who saw Duke as a means of building their major league resumes. Larry Broadway, a star first baseman at Duke from 2000 to 2002, said Hillier told him to take protein supplements to advance his big-league potential. “I was a skinny kid, so they said, ‘We’re going to give you this to gain weight. Take it, and make sure you take it a lot. You’re not going to play pro ball and hit for power or average over a long season. You’re not going to stay healthy,”’ said Broadway, now a top prospect with the Washington Nationals. “They tried to get me to a healthy weight so they could get me [to the professional level], to win games [at Duke] and push me on to my,career.” Stanley, who looked at Duke as a stopping point before the major leagues, said he injected himself with synthetic testosterone for just two weeks in 2002 while playing in an Ohio summer league. “For me it was an experiment,” he said. “But it was kind of a thing where well, ‘Hey, we’re not going to be too great anytime you’re here, just put yourself in a good position for the draft.’” A summer syndrome? Another former player, who left the program and spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the use of steroids at Duke

was far from isolated. “If steroid use is going on here, Duke is not the only school,” the player said. “There is a whole country out there where people may be taking steroids at D-I programs elsewhere.” In town for a weekend series against the Blue Devils, Maryland catcher Chad Durakis said he did not know of steroid use on the Maryland roster but that he had heard stories about other players in other leagues. “Basically we just feel cheated,” Durakis said of steroids’ prevalence in college baseball. “Any time you hear of somebody that’s doing something illegal to get an edge—especially in a conference like the ACC, where it’s so tight every year, where a few hits here and there make a big difference—you just really feel cheated. You feel like your chance is taken away a little bit.” Stanley said he felt pressured to gain weight; he took steroids because it was “pretty rampant” in college and high school baseball and because—like Kempster—he had no fear of being caught. “It’s not only Duke,” Stanley said. “You go to probably any other team in the ACC, and you know they’ve got a lot of guys doing it. “It’s not like it’s a huge problem at Duke—it’s going on all over the place,” he added. “They can’t really do anything about it.” Players said the summer is the preferred time for baseball players to use steroids because it gives ample time for complementary weight lifting and because the threat of being drug tested is minimal—and used to be almost non-existent. The NCAA tested only at its postseason championships until August 2004, when it expanded sporadic, year-round

Fear at the top? The next step for ambitious college baseball players is the minor leagues, where Major League Baseball instituted steroid testing in 2001; 11 percent of players tested positive during that season. The number dropped to 1.7 percent last season, the same year anonymous testing without enforcement began in the majors. This season, a first-time offender in the minor leagues receives a 15-game suspension, compared to 10 games in the majors and zero at Duke. “You can’t do anything,” said Broadway, currently starting for the New Orleans Zephyrs and heir apparent at first base for the Nationals. “We’ve been tested eight or 10 times during the season for every single drug. Guys are clean, or guys get banged for it.” Despite a heightened national consciousness regarding steroids in baseball, Stanley said “it kind of boggles my mind that people are so shocked” about the prevalence of steroids across all levels of the sport and particularly about the 41 minor leaguers suspended in the past two weeks. He said that, while frustrated, he does not blame Duke for failing to see the scope of the problem earlier. “I don’t know if they were trying to brush it under the carpet,” Stanley said. “They didn’tknow how entrenched it was in baseball. They probably didn’t have an idea how entrenched it was in Major League Baseball and how it trickled down to college baseball.” Kennedy, Berndt and Athletic Director Joe Alieva repeatedly said Stanley’s September 2002 arrest for possession of testosterona was the first time suspicions of steroid use were seriously considered, and Alieva said the arrest was an “isolated incident” not indicative of a larger issue. “I didn’t think there was any bigger problem, but I wanted to make sure,” Alieva said. “We just thought we had one get caught, so let’s check it out and let’s make sure we’re doing everything that’s right to make sure that these kids aren’t using any performance-enhancing drugs.” Stanley said he understood the Athletic Department did not suspect anything beyond his arrest, but he still felt the department was pinning a pervasive culture on just him and Kempster as “the bad apples of the program.” “It sometimes gets frustrating because it’s easy and convenient for people to blame it on you,” he said. “And I’ve accepted that.” John Taddei contributed to this story.

Varsity 8 slips by Oregon State by

Will Waggenspack THE CHRONICLE

After spending much of the spring season dealing with injuries and illness, Duke’s varsity eight crew posted its best showing of the second semester, defeating 21stranked Oregon State Sunday in Charlottesville, Va. “Overall, I was very pleased with the mental toughness the varsity eight showed in their race,” head coach Robyn Horner said. “It was a very important race to get us back on track as we go into the ACC Championships and Regionals.” Propelled by the return of senior co-captain Christine Lauro, who had missed significant time because of illness, the Blue Devils battled side-by-side with the Beavers through the majority of the race. The two teams were within feet of one another with only 400 meters to go, but

Duke opened up a narrow lead down the final stretch. The Blue Devils crossed the finish line first, edging Oregon State by a mere 1.8 seconds in a time of 6:49.2. Duke did not fare as well in the day’s other races, partially as a result of makeshift lineups necessitated by several key injuries. The Beavers took home wins in both the second varsity eight and varsity quad races as the Blue Devils unfamiliar groupings struggled to compete with the more established crews from Oregon State. In the second varsity eight race, the Blue Devils hung with their opponent until the final 500 meters when the Beavers pulled ahead. Despite the return of junior Lauren Case, Oregon State beat the Blue Devils to the finish line, posting a time of 6:56.2. “I think they had a good race, but I’ve definitely seen them row better,” Horner said.

The track team rested standout runners Shannon Rowbury and Nick Schneider but sent a handful of other performers to the CarolinaFast Times meet. Meanwhile, a select few athletes were invited to the Mt. SAC Relays in Walnut, Calif., one of the nation’s premier events. “We wanted to limit out distance runners because of the upcoming ACC meet,” head coach Norm Ogilvie said. “We wanted to make sure they are fresh for next weekend.” Freshman Jade Ellis set a new outdoor school record in the triple jump at Mt. SAC, as he leapt to a second-place finish with a jump of 51-2.75 feet. Ellis was second only to Jaanus Uudmae from Arkansas, which has produced the most triple jump champions in NCAA history. Competing with the nation’s elite leapers, Ellis fouled on four of his five jumps, which Ogilvie said is indicative of the freshman’s nerves. “Today was huge because he was going against a field that he will see at nationals, and to take second and not freak out is really big,” Ogilvie said. Junior Laura Stanley had a breakout race in the 5,000meter run, posting a time of 16:16.64, which ranks as the fourth best performance in Duke history. Stanley started the race in the back of the pack but kept a consistent pace. In the last mile, she moved up 10 positions into 10th place and finished fourth among collegians. “She ran a conservative race early which helped her in the end,” Ogilvie said. In the high jump, Debra Vento faced the stiffest competition ofany of the Duke athletes in a field that included former Olympians Chanute Howard and Amy Acuff. All of the competitors cleared the 5-10 opening height, but Vento was not able to clear the next mark at 6-0. In two of her attempts, she nearly cleared the height but clipped the bar with her ankles. “They’re in a super elite field,” Ogilvie said of Ellis and Vento’s competition. “It is very much an honor for those athletes to be in that group. Hopefully they will be inspired.” At the Carolina Fast Times, Ronnie Drummer sprinted the 100-meter dash in 10.85 seconds in the first outdoor meet of his career. His time is the fourth-fastest time in Duke history and qualified him for the IC4A Championships May 13-15. Drummer also teamed with Brett Morrell, Jabari Marshall and Justin Kaviar in the 4xloo-meters for a time of 42.97 despite a costly handoff miscue. “That’s a great start for him in his first meet,” Ogilvie said of Drummer, who is also on the football team. “That 4xloo looks like they could qualify this weekend if they get clean handoffs.” The women’s throwers also had a successful weekend at the Carolina Fast Times as Beth Maher’s javelin throw of 132-2 was the best of the meet and an ECAC-qualifying mark. Fellow sophomore Kelly Reynolds earned second in the hammer throw with a toss of 173-3.

formance, losing to loana Paun 6-0, 7-5. Duke was hampered all weekend by its inability to win the doubles point, forcing the team to battle back with its battered singles lineup. The Blue Devils came within one point of claiming the early advantage in Saturday’s match at Georgia Tech. After the teams split the first two doubles matches, Tory Zawacki and Clelia Deltour reached match points in a tiebreaker but ultimately lost. Clemson defeated the Blue Devils Sunday at all three doubles positions to claim the opening point. “Even though we lost the doubles point, I don’t think it fazed [Duke’s players] because we have lost so many doubles points this season,” Ashworth said. Zawacki started Saturday’s turnaround, quickly defeating her opponent 6-3, 64 to de the overall score at 1-1. Saras Arasu then dropped her singles match at the No. 2 position, but a pair of three-set victories by Deltour and Kristin Cargill gave Duke the 3-2 advantage. Jackie Carleton was next off the court, losing a close match 7-5, 7-6 to set up Goyer’s decisive showdown. “We really need a win like this,” Ashworth said. “I told them if we execute and finish, we can win. That is what hap-

Burke threw his first complete game of the season and surrendered only one unearned run. Although Duke’s two runs came on a wild pitch and a Brett Bartles sacrifice fly, the way Burke was pitching, it was enough. In Saturday’s contest, however, Terrapin hitters got to Duke starter Danny Otero quickly. The sophomore lasted only two innings, giving up six earned runs on six hits. The Blue Devil bullpen, coupled with a faulty defense that surrendered three errors, failed to provide any relief as Maryland would go on to score 13 runs on 15 hits. “Danny Otero did not throw well,” Hillier said. “That’s by far the worst outing he’s had for me to my knowledge.” The Blue Devils’ defensive woes disappeared Sunday. The team improved from Saturday’s three-error blowout to play flawlessly in the field. “We did an overall great job as a team today,” Torcise said of the final victory. “We hit-and-ran well, we played good defense, we pitched well—just an overall great performance by the team.”

The junior led the tournament from start to finish, posting the lowest score in each of the three rounds on his way to a 10-under par finish. The 12th-ranked Blaum won the event by eight strokes over Georgia Tech’s Chan Song. “I’m really happy with the way I played,” Blaum said. “On the final day, all I was thinking about was the team, and I ending up posting the best round of the tournament.” Blaum, who entered the day with a fourstroke lead, notched five birdies and no bogies during the final round. “Ryan really put us on his shoulders,” Myers said. “He looked unbeatable out there. He literally smoked his opponents. It was certainly a great performance.” Even with Blaum’s effort, Duke needed strong showings from its other players to take home the trophy. Junior Nathan Smith, ranked 24th nationally, struggled with his ball-striking much of the tournament, Myers said. He played consistently, however, turning in even-par rounds each of the first two days and was one over for the tournament. He finished in a fourth-place tie and his 18th-hole birdie all but secured the Duke victory. “Nate had some situations where he made some really good up-and-downs to save par,” Myers said. “At one point, I thought, ‘Oh my Goodness, he’s going to shoot a 75 or 76.’ But he just wouldn t let it happen. He’s just so competitive.” team to

With the match knotted at one, Shults took it upon himself to make sure the Hokies never took the lead, dispatching ofAlexei Sergeev 6-2, 6-1. Duke never looked back by winning the next four singles matches to knock off the Hokies easily. Walter rebounded from his Saturday loss in strong fashion, taking down No. 79 Stephane Rod 6-4, 64. In the closest match of the day, Jonathan Stokke was forced into a third set after Arvid Puranen broke serve to win the second. Stokke rebounded quickly to finish off the match and give the

Blue Devils their sixth point 64, 5-7, 6-1. “I think everyone came out here today with the right attitude and right frame of mind,” Zimmermann said. Lapidus said he believes schoolwork and having played four matches in the previous eight days tired his team out leading up to Saturday’s match. “I think against Wake Forest it wasn’t that we weren’t ready for it,” Shults said. “I think our legs were just a slight bit off, we had just had a lot ofmatches in a row.” The team will rest up this week going into the ACC Championships April 21 to 24. Lapidus said these two matches could be good for his team going into the postseason. wHcjTe fear played “I think well,” Lapidus said. “[The Wake Forest match] was a little wake-up call going into the ACC Tournament.

Unlike Georgia Tech, Clemson never let the the Blue Devils back into the match after taking the doubles point. The Tigers jumped to a 3-0 lead as Carleton followed a Zawacki loss with one of her own at the hands of Julie Coin, the nation’s No. 2 singles player. Deltour earned the Blue Devils’ first point with a 64, 6-1 victory. Playing in the second flight for the first time, the freshman improved her singles record to 8-2 in conference play. Clemson then took the No. 6 singles match against Goyer for the victory. “It was a tough way to end the regular season,” Ashworth said.

Both Blaum and Smith have been strong all season long, but the Blue Devils have started to come on strong lately because of the help of Michael Schachner. One week ago, he fired an eight-under-par tournament, carrying Duke to victory at the Courtyard by Mariott Invitational. He could not continue his solid play into the first round of this weekend’s event, however, carding a 10-over 82. But the freshman kept his composure, coming back in the second round to notch a 73, including the championship’s only eagle. He turned in a two-under 70 Sunday and finished in a tie for 22nd place. “It really says a lot about his maturity,” Myers said. “To come off a great tournament and play a poor opening round, he probably lost some concentration. But he did a really nice job of regrouping and, in a team game, that’s what becomes important.” The team’s inexperienced fourth and fifth players also contributed balanced golf. Both freshman Michael Quagliano and sophomore Jake Grodzinsky were playing in their first ACC Championship.

Quagliano played consistently, carding

rounds of three over and one at four over. Grodzinsky struggled in each of the first two rounds, recording scores of 76 and 79. But he shot a one-over 73 in the final round that was instrumental in the Blue Devil victory. “The two freshmen and Jake really stepped it up,” Blaum said. “When I heard that Schachner was three under through four, that really motivated me.” Looking forward, the Blue Devils have over a month until they compete in the NCAA regionals, where they will need a top-10 finish to qualify for the NCAA two

Duke has not had a top-10 showing in the NCAA Championships since 1962, when it finished third. A lOth-place finish in 1993 is the best under Myers, but hopes appear to be high this season. “I think we would have beaten any team in the country the way we played this week,” Blaum said. “So I think our NCAA chances are pretty good.”

Myers, who was thrilled with his team’s

performance this weekend, expects more from his squad in its final two events. “The best part is that you can win a

tournament like this and still feel like you

can play better,” Myers said. “I really think this puts us up there as one of the elite teams in the nation. I think these guys are getting more and more confident every day. I wish the regionals were next week.”

Although the campaign will not conclude until the end of the fiscal year June 30, the next few weeks before graduation are crucial as seniors prepare to leave Duke, Vitarelli said. The committee made a big push for contributions last week during the University’s annual Senior Week, which includes several events honoring each year’s graduating class. In addition to a poker tournament, a Durham Bulls baseball game and a climb to the top, of the Duke Chapel, seniors attended a barbecue hosted by President Richard Brodhead and his wife in the Intramural Building. Brodhead presented the senior class’ fund with a check for $20.05 and challenged them to reach their goal of 60 percent participation. If they hit the mark, Brodhead said he would change his contribution to $2,005. At the barbecue, seniors also received their parting gifts: Class of 2005 blankets. Students who contribute to the Senior Gift will have their name engraved on a plaque in the Alumni Lounge. Senior Adi Castillo cited the plaque as her primary motivation for giving money for the gift, but she added that the contribution is also a good first step for future alumni who plan on donating to the University. After finishing graduate school, Castillo plans to make donations in support Latino scholarships.

MAC from page 1 Men Acting for Change Amid clothesline T-shirts and a sea of pinwheels on West Campus last week, men could be seen handing out white ribbons. The White Ribbon Campaign, a major part of Sexual Assault Prevention Week, prompted 1,006 men to sign a petition, pledging never to commit, condone or remain silent about sexual assault. The campaign was spearheaded by MAC, an organization first started as an anti-pornography group. Last year, MAC broadened its mission. It now attempts to dissuade the notion that men should be aggressive and dominant. Group members believe that it is important for men to project a positive self image, said junior Geoff Lorenz, student organizer of MAC. “If men have the power to apply pressure to each other to do things, then men have the power to apply pressure to each other to do the right things,” Lorenz said. Lorenz said he has noticed that stu-

to

bring

“We wanted the Beatnuts as our opening band this year and they cost between $12,000 and $15,000. They were interested, but we couldn't afford them,” Greenfield said. Senior Anthony Vitarelli, president of Campus Council, which sponsors LDOC events with Duke University Union, said other schools may have a larger concert budget and thus more money to spend on bigger-name bands. “We always compare ourselves with our peers and if we want to exceed them,

dents are more receptive to the program than in years past. MAC is run by 5 core members and approximately 60 students who have signed up to participate. The number of those involved has doubled since the fall, and the organization’s members said awareness is still spreading. “MAC gives me the chance to act out on a daily basis what I think it means to be a man—caring, comforting and yet still strong,” said junior Jeff Faulring, secretary of MAC, who first heard about the program during a ribbon campaign last spring. Even if the group’s membership does not grow steadily, Faulring said MAC is facilitating discussions about sexual assault and ways in which men can stop it. “If people are talking about it, we have succeeded on some level,” he said.

Putting Assault on the Radar Screen In 2003, a woman was allegedly raped in a bathroom in Wannamaker Dormitory. After that, a group of men began to ask

how they could help prevent sexual assaults at Duke. They contacted the Women’s Center and were told to focus on acquaintance assault—attacks that happen between two people who know each other and see each other in everyday life. Although it may be difficult to stop a stranger in the bathroom, it is possible to address and educate peers, senior Ryan Kennedy said. Publications such as “Saturday Night” aid in this awareness and education process and have fostered dialogue on campus. The magazine, which publishes first-hand sexual assault narratives, has a two-fold aim. First, it tries to heal and empower victims of rape. Second, it attempts to put a human face on the statistics of sexual assault. Kennedy, one of the magazine’s editors, believes it is essential that men take a leading role in combatting sexual assault on campus and in the larger community. “Before I got involved in ‘Saturday Night’ magazine, the issue of sexual assault was very low on my radar screen,” he

the LDOC event needs additional funding,” he said. Last month, Duke Student Government failed to pass a resolution calling for a permanent augmenting and codifying of the annual LDOC budget with a $7.50 per semester increase in the student activities fee. The resolution passed via referendum in the senate and class officer elections April 16. Currently, $50,000 of the LDOC budget comes from Campus Council every year. Under the new system, $90,000 of additional revenue will be put toward bringing in musical acts. Though Greenfield declined to reveal the exact budget for this year’s LDOC bands, he said Collective Soul and Weekend Excursion would cost between $29,000

and $42,000. In comparison, Cornell has $150,000 to splurge on bands. Yale’s budget for Talent for Musical Acts this year is just under $70,000, while Brown’s Concert Agency’s budget is $105,000. But Greenfield noted that even if the LDOC committee has more money to cover its operating expenses and brings in a bigger-name band, it will still be hard to please everybody on campus. Some of Duke’s musicians remain divided as to whether Yale, Cornell and Brown procured bands that students at Duke would rather listen hear perform. “Compared to the other acts that these top schools got, Duke’s drawis terrible,” said junior Zachary Kilgore of The Pulsar Triyo. Senior Yaw Nyame of the band Uncle

said. After taking a more active role in the issue, Kennedy said he gained a?new perspective on the way men act around women and the language men use when referring to women. He hopes this consciousness will be disseminated through

“Saturday Night.” To Kennedy’s knowledge, other universities do not have similar publications. The next issue of “Saturday Night”—which

came out last week—will be mailed to more than 100 colleges. Kennedy hopes students at these schools will read the publication and start versions of “Saturday Night” on their respective campuses. While men may be just a piece of sexual assault education and prevention, their participation is imperative if complete change is to be achieved, several activists said. “The bottom line is violence against women will never stop without male allies,” Leonard said. “We can do more because more people are stepping up and speaking out and getting involved. People are owning this as a community problem.”

Jemima disagreed.

“If anyone can truly perform an outdoor show that will get students involved, I think it would be Collective Soul,” Nyame said. “As for Weekend Excursion, I saw them once and they seemed to get the attention of the people they were performing for. I’m not a huge fan, but they’ll definitely be capable of doing their job as an opener.” Preferences aside, sophomore Alex Cornell of the band Cody said he would come to LDOC no matter which musical act Duke presented. “For me, I’m always up for live music,” Cornell explained. “So I’m certainly going to attend since I never would miss a free concert.”

Read Saturday Night Those of us who are seniors probably remember the Wannamaker attack as one of the defining moments of our sophomore year. In fact, it was such a defining moment that two years ago, in response, a publication was created at this .university to address the problem of sexual assault. We created Saturday Night; Untold Stories ofSexual Assault at Duke —in part to inform, in part to help people heal and in part to provide a voice where there simply wasn’t one. Last week marked the release of Saturday Night, 2nd edition. It is an opportunity for those of us who felt helpless to change what we discovered to be the harsh realities of life during Sexual Assault Prevention Week to do something—be part of creating a culture that does not tolerate sexual assault, and foster that at Duke. You might wonder, “why another edition? What does this Saturday Night have that the last one didn’t, and why should I read it?” Merely picking up a copy will show you that we have undergone a growth process. We have grown as founders, as an organization, hopefully as a campus, and we believe the content of this publication has grown tremendously as well. Through this publication, we took a tragedy and turned it into a positive, educational experience for our entire campus. Survivors found an anonymous forum in which to make their voices heard, helping them heal. But edition two does much more. It includes the voices of administrators, professors

and concerned students writing about issues of gender and power that underlie sexual violence. We as editors have attempted to go deeper into the healing process, to be more representative ofracially diverse views, and to include the perspective of males. The second edition also includes photography by a number of Duke students who used other Duke students as their models. This is a publication with our own stories, our own bodies, our own faces, our own professors, our own talent—it literally cuts out a piece of Duke and exposes it for the world to see. The question is, will you be one of the people who sees it? We feel that sexual assault is much more than a crime. It is a symptom of a greater societal problem, which, as members of a liberal arts institution, we have the amazing opportunity to discuss among our peers. So here is a challenge for you: pick up a copy of Saturday Night. But don’t just do that; TALK about it—over coffee, a beer, dinner, whatever. Pass it on to someone, especially if you think that person needs to read it, for whatever reason that may be. Our purpose is not to shock, but to make you think beyond what you already know. It is not to make you hate Duke by reading about what happens here, but realize this is a problem in society that affects all of us. The hope is that we will start to ask, “why does this happen?” and “what can I do about it?”

Asking the questions

Conventional

wisdom looks at Christianity as a matter of faith, not logic. Perhaps it will lead to a good life, and perhaps it provides hope, but it also requires one to blindly follow a text and not be skeptical. While this line of thinking may be politically correct, it is rather insulting, as it implies that Christians are people who do not think for themselves. For the sake of dialogue, let’s turn the tables: If the Bible is not die word of God, then what is it? Fiction? Exaggeration? Propaganda? If it is a group’s attempt to fool future generations, then what was the motivation? Why spend so much time on it? Why choose obscure people like Matthew, Mark and Luke as authors for the gospels instead of well-known figures of the time? Why did historians like Papias and Irenaeus affirm that the gospel writers existed and were precise in recording testimony? Why are there no other specific theories as to who really wrote it? If the Bible is propaganda, not history, then why is it written the way it is? Why so much detail? Why the chronological and sometimes dull tone? Why tell the same story several times, always with the basic details the same? Why do the gospels read so differently from each other, as if the authors worked independently and neither coordi"C* nated nor compared their accounts for consistency, as propagandists would? Why feed the skeptics by nathan carleton including paradoxical aspoker pects of Christianity? What kind of people risk scorn, suffering and death to trick future generations into believing a false ideology, especially when they have nothing to gain financially? If the Bible is just a series of tall tales that were exaggerated over time, then why does its earliest translation date back to A.D. 100? Why didn’t historians object to the Bible’s accuracy back then, when less than a generation had transpired since the events described? Why are there 24,000 ancient manuscripts of the Bible, but nothing alleging what would be the most extensive conspiracy in human history? If Jesus didn’t exist, then why do so many people believe that he did? Why did the historian Josephus in A.D. 93 refer to a man named James as “the brother of Jesus, who was called the Christ’'? Why did Tacitus in A.D. 115 write about Nero’s persecuting of Christians? Why do critical accounts describe Jesus as a sorcerer, instead of calling his existence a myth? If Jesus was not the son of God, then who was he? Why did he fulfill the Old Testament properties of the Messiah, from ancestry, to place of birth, to method of death, to the coinage someone accepted to betray him? If he didn’t perform miracles, then why did his critics call him a sorcerer? Why did he claim to be the only path to Heaven and forgive people for sins? Why did he gain millions of followers, while other prophets did not? Why didn’t he correct those who thought he was God? Why would the Romans want to kill a carpenter who just happened to speak in parables? Why did they hang a “King of the Jews” sign above his head? How could someone who falsely claims to be God be a good person? Aren’t the only alternatives to Jesus being the son of God that he was insane or lying? Could an insane person sway masses with modesty, calm and compassion? Could a liar convince people he was sinless and inspire them to such an ethically demanding religion? How many con-men willingly die to keep their acts going? If Jesus did not die on a cross and then rise from the dead, then what happened? How could someone survive a Roman flogging of metal balls, bones and whips, seven inch spikes through his wrists and a spear through his side, especially when Roman executioners were themselves killed if those being executed did not die, or if a body was stolen? And how could a person in a beaten and pathetic state possibly inspire others with a message of hope and life? If Jesus’s resurrection did not happen, then how did Christianity spread so quickly through Jerusalem? Why would people who saw him die believe he rose again without any evidence? Why would so many change their religious traditions to reflect his teachings? Why did they suddenly start practicing communion and baptism? And why did Jesus’s disciples say he rose from the dead if he really didn’t? Why were they killed for saying he did? Who dies for a lie? Nathan Carleton is a Trinity senior.
