Although a lawsuit against the city of Durham continues to weigh on the minds of city officials, the case that brought Durham national infamy has begun to lose its hold over city politics, professors said.

“I do not think that [the lawsuit] will greatly impact Durham’s reputation any more than it already has,” Professor Thomas Metzloff of the analysis School ofLaw wrote in an e-mail. “People’s impressions of Durham around the country were negatively impacted by the entire case and its handling by [former Durham County district attorney Mike] Nifong, but most people do not direcdy associate his misconduct with the city, even if it turnsout that the city was more culpable than most people now believe.”

James Coleman, a professor of law and frequent commentator on the case, pointed to last week’s county-wide election as proof of the case’s decreasing influence on voters.

“I see nothing thatindicates that [lacrosse] was a factor,” he said. “I think the contest was about personalities and partisan politics.”

The re-election of Mayor Bill Bell and City Council members Eugene Brown and Diane Catotti could be interpreted as a show of approval by Durham’s citizens of city officials’ handling of the case, political SEE LAX ON PAGE 5

Duke University Union members approved a proposal that will grant the Last Day of Classes Committee $25,000 ofUnion funds Tuesday evening.

The event is annually co-sponsored

by DUU and Campus Council.

Submitted by LDOC co-chairs Vincent Ling and Chamindra Goonewardene, both juniors, the budget calls for a $25,000 contribution by DUU —a $5,000 increase from last year.

More than 50 percent of the members present voted in favor of the proposal, and the budget passed despite concern about the increase.

Goonewardene, who is also the director of the Union’s Major Attractions Committee, said Campus Council has agreed to match DUU’s $25,000 contribution, but the Office of Student Activities and Facilities has not yet agreed to funding.

President Katelyn Donnelly, a senior, requested that voting take place by ballot.

The passed proposal will be sent to the University Union Board for final approval.

Justice investigates surveillance

Middle East wars cost U.S. $1.6 trillion by

Jeannine Aversa

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The economic costs of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are estimated to total $1.6 trillion—roughly double the amount the White House has requested thus far, according to a new report by Democrats on Congress’Joint Economic Committee.

The report, released Tuesday, attempted to put a price tag on the two conflicts, including “hidden” costs such as interest payments on the money borrowed to pay for the wars, lost investment, the expense of long-term health care for injured veterans and the cost ofoil market disruptions.

The $1.6 trillion figure, for the period from 2002 to 2008, translates into a cost of $20,900 for a family of four, the report said.

The Bush administration has requested $BO4 billion for the Iraq and Afghanistan wars combined, the report stated.

For the Iraq war only, total economic costs were estimated at $1.3 trillionfor the period from 2002 to 2008. That would cost a family of four $16,500, the report said.

Future economic costs would be even greater. The report estimated thatboth wars would cost $3.5 trillion between 2003 and 2017. Under that scenario, it would cost a family offour $46,400, the report said.

The report, from the committee’s Demo-

cratic majority, was not vettedwith Republican members. Democratic leaders in Congress, including Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., seized on the report to criticize Bush’s war strategy. The White House counteredthat the report was politically motivated.

“This report was put out by Democrats on Capitol Hill. This committee is known for being partisan and political. They did not consult or cooperate with the Republicans on the committee. And so I think it is an attempt to muddy the waters on what has been some positive developments being reported out ofIraq,” said White House press secretary Dana Perino. “I haven’t seen the report, but it’s obvious the motivations behind it.”

Students pick community over politics

by Candace Tracy DAILY ORANGE (SYRACUSE)

The ’6os (U-WIRE) SYRACUSE, N.Y. had its hippies, the ’7os had its protesters and the ’Bos touted the yuppie generation.

And a recent study indicates that “Millennials”—the current generation of students are, in fact, more civic-minded and community oriented than their predecessors.

The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement recently published a report, “Millennials Talk Politics,” which examines college students’ opinions on politics and civic activ—

ism. It is a follow-up to its 1993 survey on Generation X. Millennial are concerned with local issues and “feel responsible” to do their part by volunteering, the study said. A stark contrast to the “individualistic,” self-involved outlook of Gen X, today’s students are more willing to put their interests second to serve their communities.

CIRCLE researchers attribute this radical change in attitude to the fluctuating political atmosphere of the past decade—controversial national elections, an increase in international terrorism and dissonant ideologies.

'

Despite increased civic involvement on a local level, students remain disenchanted with politics; students surveyed said voting was a mere “symbolic gesture” rather than an actual agent for change.

The majority of students who participated also regarded politics as untrustworthy, a means for the “powerful to keep power for themselves,” according to the report.

Students’ reservations with politics are not due to a lack of information, researchers said, but instead “an overload of news and opinion,” deemed tainted by partisan influence.

The Justice Department has reopened a long-dormant inquiry into the government's warrantless wiretapping program, a major policy shift only days into the tenure of new Attorney General Michael Mukasey. Investigators were denied security clearances last year.

Chlamydia rates set U.S. record More than 1 million cases of chlamydia were reported in the United States last year—-the most ever reported for a sexually transmitted disease, federal health officials said Tuesday. Syphilis and gonorrhea rates are rising, too.

Herbal sex pills pose danger Many of the pills marketed as safe herbal alternativesto Viagra and otherprescription sex medications pose a hidden danger, according to The Associated Press. For men on common heart and blood-pressure drugs, popping one could lead to a stroke, or even death.

Nate Freeman THE CHRONICLE

Members of the Student Health Insurance Advisory Committee discussed the future of Duke’s health insurance at the Graduate and Professional School Council general body meeting Tuesday.

David Kahler, a third-year civil and environmental engineering student, led a discussion about potential health insurance options. Kahler, a member of the SHIAC, gauged student opinion on the existing options in preparation for an official proposal to be completed March 2008.

“It’s important that all students have adequate health care so they can access it if they need it,” he said.

Duke currently offers a coinsurance health policy, but Kahler said he is advocating for a move to a co-pay system that bills students according to individual medical need.

Switching from co-insurance to co-pay, however, may entail too many complications to make it feasible for Duke, Kahler said.

“We’re not sure if it’s impossible, but we’re going to look at it,” he said.

The SHIAC will also evaluate the policy

David Kahler speaks to GPSC members about potential health insurance optionsTuesday evening. for students who wish to opt out ofDuke’s health insurance.

SHIAC member Eric Vance, a sixthyear Ph.D. candidate in statistics, said students often avoid paying for Duke’s insurance by falsifying information when asked to specify their outside carrier.

He added that because only 20 percent of graduate and professional students do not take Duke insurance, the changes to the waiver policy are directed primarily at undergraduates, 80 percent of whom choose private carriers.

Kahler said the SHIAC will have representatives speak at a Duke Student Government meeting to hear undergraduates’ opinions on the topic of health insurance before submitting a health insurance proposal March 1. The proposal will be evalu-

ated first by Bill Purdy, executive director of Student Health, and then by Larry Moneta, vice president for student affairs, before a decision is announced March 21.

In other business: Chris Day, an officer of the Duke University Police Department, spoke to GPSC members about safety on campus and the role of DUPD within Durham.

Day briefed students on topics such as how to guard valuables, how to defend against assailants and the importance of calling the police at the sight of suspicious behavior.

“People who steal this stuff, they know how to steal it,” he said. “How many of you would pay a million dollars if your laptop with your thesis got stolen? Don’t let that stuff be gone because you have a lapse.”

Buder’s winning column, “Soaking the Poor: With All Deliberate Speed” discussed the ethical concerns of hospital policies that charge uninsured patients more for service.

The award, presented annually for the best article written by a Duke undergraduate, is funded by Melcher Tucker Consultants and sponsored by the Sanford Institute’s DeWitt Wallace Center for Media and Democracy.

Dolls offer hope for African AIDS victims by

Diana Sheldon THE CHRONICLE

Duke students can now support HIV/ AIDS victims in a fashionable way.

Litde Travellers, an initiative that supports African women infected with HIV/ AIDS by helping them sell their beaded doll pins, will be offering the accessories to students at locations both on and off campus.

The group organized on the West Campus Plaza Tuesday to raise money. The $lBO they collected from the sales will go toward fighting the disease in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. They will be on the plaza again Thursday.

Audrey Warren, a third-year Divinity School student, brought the nonprofit organization to the University earlier this fall and has sold the doll pins outside the Refectory Cafe every Tuesday.

“We can’t just give people medication and expect them to get better,” Warren said. “We need to provide them with other things as well, economic empowerment being one of those things.”

Warren also collaborated with undergraduates to sell the dolls on the West Campus Plaza Tuesday, and will do so again Thursday.

The pins, which are sold for $5 each, have been distributed throughout Canada since Little Travellers was founded in 2002, but Warren has only recently brought the dolls to North Carolina.

In addition to their availability at the Refectory Cafe, the pins have also been stocked at One World Market on Ninth Street, where they are the third-best-selling item, Warren said.

She added that although the initiadve only began this fall, approximately 500 pins have already been sold at the Divinity School locadon.

Warren became involved with Little Travellers after she visited Durban, South Africa this summer through a program organized by the Divinity School.

She spent muchofher timeat the Hillcrest AIDS Centre, which is where Ilan Schwartz, a third-year medicalstudent at the University of Manitoba, started the program.

“Like Ilan, I fell in love with the center—most importandy, I fell in love with all the people that I met there,” Warren said.

“I saw people die, and when I came back I

felt like I couldn’t be silent about it, but [l] needed to educate and raise money for the people in South Africa. Little Travellers is away to do that with dignity.”

After spending time volunteering in South Africa, Schwartz returned to the University of Manitoba wearing one of these handmade pins, Warren said. Someone asked Schwartz if they could buy the pin off of him for five dollars, sparking his interest in founding Litde Travellers.

Forty percent of the funds earned from selling the beaded doll pins go to the women who made them, with the rest of the profits going to funding a new respite unit at the Hillcrest AIDS Centre.

“All of the money from Little Travellers goes to providing unconditional love for those infected with HIV/AIDS,” Warren said.

“It does this by economically empowering the women who make them, as well as providing the money to build a new respite unit.”

Approximately 100 women currently work with the Hillcrest AIDS Centre in crafting the pins. Warren said a part of the center’s mission is spreading the word about the women behind the pins by encouraging buyers to wear them as often as they can. As a result, the pins have become very fashionable in South Africa, she said.

Warren said she has made an effort to get undergraduates involved in Litde Travellers.

Sophomore Julia Chapman, a Baldwin scholar, said she decided to work with Litde Travellers after Warren spoke to her group about selling the dolls.

“I met Audrey through the Baldwin Scholars program,” Chapman said. “Because Audrey is somewhat separated from undergraduate life, she spoke to the Baldwin scholar women to see if we would be able to help with this program. I was really excited about what she was doing and started working with her.”

Vice President of Internal Affairs Rob Carlson, a senior, proposed the creation of a formal dance to take place at the Washington Duke Inn that would be added to the current lineup of spring activities.

“What this event is going to try to do is integrate all facets of people here at Duke,” Carbon said. “We’re encouraging eachindividual from the undergraduates, the graduates and faculty to associate with people they wouldn’t normally associate with.”

After the meeting, Donnelly said she held similar views.

“It kind offills a void because there are currently no formal opportunities for independents,” Donnelly said.

The spring formal proposal, however, generated concern among Union officials who said the event may not make an impression on students.

“When you have one event per semester, then people look forward to it and it becomes a legacy,” said Films Presentations Director Devin Alavian, a senior. “If this [formal] kind of gets lost in the shuffle, then I’m not really sure it’s worth it.”

Despite the executive support, the proposal was rejected and deferred to a later date after a budget re-evaluation.

Presentations by Alavian and Cable 13 President Orcun Urdu, a senior, provided an update on the current progress of Cable 13.

“I don’t know if it’s funny or sad that some ofyou called Cable 13 nonfunctional,” he said. “But the fact that a 24-seven TV station is called nonfunctional is not good.”

He added that the station is currently working on new shows and reality shows such as “Iron Dorm Chef’ as a part of their programming.

Alavian announced a new event in place of the regular Freewater Presentations movie showing at GriffithTheater this week.

Instead, “Two Hands,” a documentary co-directed by Emmy Award-nominee Nathaniel Kahn and featuring John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts honoree Leon Fleisher will be screened. The documentary is nominatedfor an Academy Award and will be screened Thursday.

Lewontin said biologist E. O. Wilson named “indoctrinability, blind faith and genocide” as facets that all humans shared in his famous book “Sociobiology: The New Synthesis.” Lewontin anticipated the audience’s laughter, asking, “Does this apply to all humans?”

“We have no known genes that affect the content of thought and attitudes. Where are these genes?” he asked.

Lewontin sought in the lecture to debunk notions that mapping the human genome would provide a Rosetta Stone for explaining personality.

He also cited more supposed errors from Wilson and other leading biologists, where the scientists—in attempting to say something universal about human nature—too readily dismissed not only a lack of contributing evidence but a considerable amount of data to the contrary.

“The desire to say something universal about human nature goes a back a long way... [and it] is also how you can get prestige,” Lewontin said.

Audience members said they agreed with Lewontin’s message.

“It is important for people to be skeptical ofreceived ideas of human nature,” said Michelle Talal, a master’s student in the Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences. “Science is influenced by the culture that surrounds it, and it is crucial that we remain curious.”

Students also noted that the Provost’s Lecture Series brought disparate disciplines together in exciting and important new ways. “I completely laud the interdisciplinary approach thatProvost [Peter] Lange has orchestrated,” said Ken Fujiwara, Trinity ’Ol. “I’ve found many things in these lectures to be highly applicable in numerous aspects.”

Senior Justin Kaviar added that he found the lecture series to be a good way to bring the campus and community together in exploring important social issues.

“As a student at a leading research institution, getting to hear about the implications of science in fields other than science is not only interesting—it’s necessary,” he said.

Lewontin concluded the evening by cautioning the public against taking a fundamentalist approach to genetic determinism.

“It is crystal clear that essentially every aspect of all organisms [are] a consequence of not only the genes but of a certain environment,” he said.

science professor Paula McClain wrote in an e-mail.

“Every incumbent who ran has been re-elected,” McClain said. “Therefore, there appears to have been little or no political fallout from the situation. In fact, the citizens of Durham have given their leaders a vote ofconfidence.”

Kerry Haynie, associate professor of political science, added that lacrosse’s time as an everyday issue in Durham has passed.

“It will be an issue that will get some news coverage, but the actual effect on the politics ofDurham will be very little,” he said. “I think it’s an issue that will come and go.”

The federal civil rights lawsuit, filed by the three former men’s lacrosse players falsely accused ofrape in 2006, could cost the city as much as $3O million.

Though it is possible that Durham will have to pay a considerable amount of money, Coleman said the sum would most likely not be as high as is being asked.

“There’s going to be something of a backlash against the audacity of the litigation against the city and against the University,” he said. “I think most people believe that the students were harmed by what happened to them but not to the extent that the lawsuits suggest.”

Metzloffadded that the lawsuits are not only about money, and said they are also intended to force changes in the way police and law officials handle cases—something that litigation is generally not very efficient at accomplishing.

Overall, however, he said most of the effects of the lawsuit have already taken their toll on the city.

Coleman said he anticipates a change in how Durham’s law enforcement operates, adding that most changes would take place on the level of police and attorneys rather than with the mayor.

A lawsuit filed against the cityby the three men indicted in the lacrosse case appears to have had little impact on theresults of elections.

‘You’re going to see all over North Carolina changes in how prosecutors do business, particularly as a result of the lacrosse case,” he said. “I don’t think mayors are really affected by the lacrosse case because they don’t have that much to do with law enforcement.”

Still, Eugene Brown said the case will continue to pose a challenge for officials in the short term.

“It’s on people’s minds, voters’ minds,” he said. “Most people wish thewhole damn thing would go away, but it’s not” Because of ongoing litigation against the city, Mayor Bill Bell declined to comment for this story.

Just another smiling face brought to you by Duke SuperOptics Duke SuperOptics offers the latest in adult, child, and sunglass eye wear design and technology.

Our NC-Licensed Opticians offer a combined experience of more than 60 years and can advise you on the best frames and lenses for your particular prescription and lifestyle.

Before the semester ends, the members of DBDC will be well-versed in various dances. With three hours of lessons a week—an hour of smooth ballroom on Tuesday and an hour each ofLatin ballroom and social salsa on Thursday—the club has already covered the waltz, tango, samba, salsa, merengue, bachata and both the ballroom and social forms of the cha-cha-cha.

“We wanted to bring ballroom back to Duke students and give people a feeling of what a more formal type of dance is,” said sophomore Andrei Scumpu, the club’s president. “Hip-hop, techno and all these new dances are very loose and freestyle, but ballroom is much more set. There are rules and patterns, and I think it’s more social because ballroom requires a partner. The others don’t.”

Scumpu said approximately 30 students regularly showup to classes throughout the week, a commendable turnout considering the club “had to be picked up from zero” last year.

He added that although some people choose to focus on a single style, others attend every class in addition to extra practices during the weekend.

Thursday’s meeting attracted an eclectic mix, from freshmen to graduate students. They dressed in a range of clothing—one male wearing a crisp-collared shirt, khakis and polished black shoes, another sporting a Duke athletics T-shirt, basketball shorts and gym shoes—but they danced with a sense of camaraderie, chatting among themselves and coaching each other when needed.

“I can’t yank you this way,” one male dancer said to his partner, laughing. “There’s no leverage here.”

The class circled around instructor Natalia Weedy, a dancer in the Mambo Dinamico Dance Company who has been teaching for more than two years. Because this was the first week dancing the merengue, she started by covering some basic steps and techniques. A few minutes later, a confused student spoke up, interrupting her.

“Wait, are we not doing the salsa anymore?” he asked.

When Weedy explained that the class would be learning a new dance, another student offered a concise definition of the merengue.

“It’s like a simpler version of the salsa,” he said.

This year, club members have seized opportunities to practice their new skills by attending monthly Cimarron Latin Dance nights at Club 9 and preparing for a Mi Gente showcase in von der Heyden Pavilion Nov. 29.

Scumpu said he hopes DBDC will send couples to regional competitions next semester, but added that he recognizes the commitment this would involve.

“The Ballroom Dance Club is still fresh and minty,” he said. “Most of the people have just joined this semester, and for this general movement towards competition ballroom, you have to be really ambitious, but I think it’s al-

ready happening.”

The students had been dancing nonstop for almost an hour, but their night was only half over. At five minutes to nine,

Latin ballroominstructor Robertas Maleckis walked in with CD player in hand, prepared to teach them the fast-paced jive.

After Weedy gathered her music to leave, she paused to speak with Scumpu on the way out.

“So,” she asked. ‘What do you want to leant next week?”

The South Duke looks for revenge in rematch Bend Showdown by

THE CHRONICLE

Saturday is as big a rivalry day as it gets in college football. Miami plays at Virginia Tech. Undefeated Harvard takes on undefeated Yale in The Game.

Plus, there’s that matchup known as Ohio State-Michigan for a trip to the Rose Bowl.

But instead of watching the pageantry of Ivy League football or the sousaphone player dotting the “i”, I will be in Indiana taka contest of ing galen a slightly different caliber: the 2007 Toilet Bowl between Duke (1-9) and Notre Dame (1-9).

Regardless of the Fighting Irish’s paltry record, a win on national television in South Bend would be a historic occasion for the Blue Devils. If anything, they won’t have to go back to 1938 for the next “Great Moments in Duke Football History” montage at Wally Wade.

But does Duke have a chance? Since both teams will be searching for that elusive second victory, breaking down the individual matchups seems fairly useless in debating which team is worse in each facet of the game.

“It’s definitely a great chance for us to get a little revenge,” Jepson said. “Just the fact that it’s UNC. It’s a UNC-Duke game you’ve always got to get up for that.”

The rivalry matchups have been defensive-minded recendy, with just two total goals scored in the last four games between the two squads. The only goal the Blue Devils managed against the Tar Heels’ defense in that span was an own goal last season.

North Carolina remains balanced offensively and strong defensively, led by senior center back Andre Sherard. Duke, however, does not have a special plan for attacking the Tar Heels.

“It’s just like any other team,” midfielder Joe Germanese said. “It’s about moving the

of hours.

“You can take the ‘s’ off of ‘days,’ Roof said. “It was ‘day.’”

Roofs ephemeral stint at Notre Dame ended before it truly began due to the December 2001 scandal regarding embellishments on the resume of newly-hired head coach George O’Leary, Roof had served as O’Leary’s defensive coordinator at Georgia Tech for three years when he was asked to move with the coach to Notre Dame. Roof agreed in principle to join the Fighting Irish as defensive coordinator and traveled to South Bend with Bill O’Brien and David Kelly, two other members of O’Leary’s staff.

Notre Dame sent a university jet to Atlanta early in the morning to bring the three coaches to see their new workplace.

Roof toured the campus, met with admin-

istrators and Athletic Director Chris White and even sharedthe results of some househunting efforts with his wife, Pam. “I had called her a couple of times during the course of the day, because the cost of living was pretty reasonable up there,” Roof said. “Of course, any time when you’ve got kids, and you’re talking about moving, all those things go through your mind.”

With Georgia Tech preparing for a bowl game, Roof arrived back home by 11 p.m. with a contract in hand. A stunning phone call three hours later, however, rendered those papers useless.

“I was at home and the phone rang at about two o’clock in the morning,” Roof said. “When you coach college football and your phone rings at two in the morning, or I guess just if you’re a human being and your phone rings at two o’clock, they’re not pleasant calls. That one wasn’t either.”

The call was from O’Brien, and he had some* unpleasant news. Revelations about falsifications on O’Leary’s resume, SEE FOOTBALL ON PAGE

ball quickly, and it’s about getting in behind their defense and it’s about finishing the opportunities that we do have.... If we can score a goal early on them, that would be huge. If we score in the first 10 minutes or so, that’s just a huge blow to any team, and [it helps] your team’s confidence.”

Jumping out in front early will be especially important if the Blue Devils are without senior co-captain Michael Videira, who is questionable with a quadriceps injury. Videira has not played since Oct. 31 and probably will not start against North Carolina. Duke hopes he will be back for the NCAA tournament and does not want to rush him back onto the pitch.

Senior goalkeeper Justin Papadakis will also not be in the starting lineup. Backup Brendan Fitzgerald will get his second consecutive start after blanking N.C. State Saturday.

“We wanted him to get a start in a real competitive game,” Rennie said. “I don’t want to say the N.C. State game wasn’t competitive, but the goalkeeper didn’t have much to do. So we’ll give him the start [today], and I’m sure he’ll be tested.”

The BlueDevils do not plan on approaching the game any differendy knowing that Fitzgerald will be between the pipes rather than Papadakis. The keepers have identical 1.12 goals against averages, and Fitzgerald has shutouts in both ofhis starts this year.

“Brendan and Justin are both great goalies,” Germanese said. “As a team, I think we feel 100-percent confident with either one.

We’re just fortunate to have two quality goalies like that on the team.”

Although Duke will be missing some familiar faces in its quarterfinal lineup, several others have gotten healthier since the regular-season meeting with the Tar Heels. That game was Jepson’s first of the year, and Zack

major conflicts between Irish Catholics and Methodists. Best not to start anything now. Advantage: Push.

2. The Golden Dome vs. The Duke

Chapel

Pope and Spencer Wadsworth were still re-

covering from offseason surgeries.

“Defensively, as a team, we’ve improved a lot,” Germanese said. “All th e way from the forward line to the defense, I think we’re playing better team defense. We’re working harder for each other, we’re winning second balls, our backs aren’t letdng the ball bounce—they’re winning everything in the air.”

The Blue Devils know they will have to compensate without Videira to advance in their quest to take home a third consecutive conference crown. They also know that they cannot get caught up in seeking revenge against North Carolina—but the incentive of playing theirrivals will be present nonetheless.

“No matter what team you play, you always want to win, but especially [against] UNC, just because ofthe history thatwe’ve had in the last four years,” Jepson said.

Both campus structures are iconic in their own right, but the Golden Dome is perhaps the most recognizable college landmark in the United States. Additionally, the 23-karat gold leaf provides the template for the Irish’s football helmet, whereas the Blue Devils would look like sidewalks if they went with a Chapel-inspired design. Advantage: Notre Dame.

3.The Grotto vs. Sarah B. Duke Gardens Fulfilling graduation requirements in the Grotto would probably qualify you for a one-way ticket to eternal damnation. Advantage: Duke.

4. Touchdown Tesus vs. Tames B. Duke Statue Each work is emblematic of the university’s roots: religion for Notre Dame, tobacco for Duke. James B. Duke still looks like a bailer with his cigar and pimp cane, but he would look hipper with a basketball and aJJ. Redick jersey. Christ the Teacher’s raised arms, on the other hand, couldn’t be more relevant. Advantage: Notre Dame.

5. Notre Dame Stadium vs. Cameron Indoor Stadium Notre Dame Stadium may be the most beautiful sight Daniel Ruettiger’s eyes have ever seen, but Cameron Indoor Stadium oozes a sense of tradition and timelessness that makes it the greatest venue in college basketball. Advantage; Duke.

6. The Fighting Irish vs. The Blue Devils The nickname Fighting Irish is a tad redundant, but it’s eclipsed by the unmatched irony of naming an athletic team

after a French military unit. Especially one that wore capes and berets on the battlefield. Advantage: Notre Dame.

7. “Notre Dame Victory March” vs.

“Fight, Blue Devils, Fight” The “Victory March” is the most famous college fight song after Michigan’s “Hail to the Victors,” while the only words Dukies seem to know of their fight song Carolina, Go to Hell—aren’t even official lyrics. Advantage: Notre Dame.

8, Coach K: Knute vs. Krzyzewski Both are perhaps the all-time greatest collegiate coaches in their respective sports. But while Krzyzewski has motivated coundess numbers of athletes, students and executives to make sure they’re armed with not just a jumpshot or a dribble, he has yet to match “win one for the Gipper.”

Advantage: Notre Dame.

9. The Four Horsemen vs. Grant, Bobby, Christian, Thomas and Antonio Just typing Duke’s 1992 starting lineup gives me a cramp. It’s been 15 years someone should have come up with a good nickname for them by now. Until then, the apocalyptic-sounding Four Horsemen prevail by default. Plus they have been on a postage stamp. Advantage: Notre Dame.

10. “Rudy” vs. “The Program” In theory, this matchup should be another blowout win for Notre Dame. Everyone has seen “Rudy” and no one has heard of “The Program”, a college football movie filmed at Duke. But while “Rudy” has Vince Vaughn and Samwise Gamgee, “The Program” has Omar Epps and Halle Berry —yes, that Halle Berry—in the Gothic Reading Room. Advantage: Duke.

Notre Dame prevails by a sound 6-3-1.

But that doesn’t matter, as I am scrapping my preseason prediction: Duke will flush Notre Dame to earn win No. 2.

Our lady of victory—PRAY FOR US! —

Both Blue Devils' head coach Ted Roofand offensive coordinator Peter Vaas have ties to Notre Damefootball. that he is perfectly comfortable with today.

“It worked out like it worked out, and it worked out great,” Roof said.

Vaas heads home Roof is not the only Duke coach with strong ties to Notre Dame. Offensive coordinator Peter Vaas regularly walked the South Bend sidelines on two separate occasions. He first served on Lou Holtz’s offensive staff for two years in the early 1990 before heading off to become a head coach at Holy Cross and in NFL Europe.

At the end of the 2005 NFL Europe season, Vaas left his job with the Cologne Centurions to accept the quarterbacks coach position under new Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis. Vaas spent the next two years

s

which incorrectly stated that the coach was a three-year football letterman at the University of New Hampshire and that he had earned a master’s degree at NYU, had come to light. O’Leary was forced to resign the next day, and with that development, any of Roofs dreams of coaching beneath Touchdown Jesus vanished into thin air.

“I didn’t think it was real,” Roof said.

“But the longer it went, then obviously the next morning when it all hit the news, [it sunk in]. It’s just really unfortunate, because George O’Leary is a good football coach and a good guy.”

Roof had the option of staying at Georgia Tech under newly hired head man Chan Gailey, but he was only offered the position oflinebackers coach, an effective demotion from his job as defensive coordinator.

Roof was accustomed to a decisionmaking position, so he traveled to Durham to interview with Duke head coach Carl Franks for the defensive coordinator opening. Roof, who had spent four years at Duke as a linebackers coach in the early 19905, landed the job before the 2002 season. Fifteen losses later, Franks was fired midway through the 2003 season, and Roof was named interim head coach. A 2-3 finish that season led to the permanent installation of Roof in his current position.

Although in retrospect, his opportunity at Notre Dame may have been nothing more than a mirage, Roof acknowledges that it put into motion a series of events

other coaches who had previously worked withVaas, Roof hired him as running backs coach. O’Brien—Duke’s then-offensive coordinator—departed for a position with the New England Patriots, opening the spot for Vaas. Quarterback ThaddeusLewis and the Blue Devils’ offense have made strides this season under Vaas’ tutelage, who has relished his new opportunity to lead the team’s offensive unit.

“When you get here, you’re involved in a decision-making process which [at Notre Dame] was basically a suggestion-making process,” Vaas said. “Here, those suggestions become decisions on my part.... That’s been a tremendous experience."

Vaas, who spoke to the team on Tuesday about what to expect in South Bend, is excited about this weekend for more than just the football game. Both of his daughters attend Notre Dame, and the opportunity to see them and other familiar faces will be a thrill. But as for trying to earn retribution against a team that pushed him out of the door less than a year ago, Vaas could not care less, as long as he can help lead his team to a successful outcome Saturday.

“I’m sure that if I get on the plane [after a win] there might be some personal satisfaction,” Vaas said. “[But] one of the things that would thrill me the most is to be in the Duke locker room with the Duke football kids rejoicing with the second win of the season.

‘You coach to win on a Saturday, and you coach to give those kids the tools to win, and that’s the part that I’ve got the most on my mind right now.”

working with future NFL first-round pick Brady Quinn on teams that reached two consecutive BCS bowl games.

But after the 2006 season, Weis and his staff decided to go in a different direction, and Vaas was pushed out of his position in favor of former Notre Dame star quarterback Ron Powlus.

“Charlie and Notre Dame made a decision a year ago, and it was a professional decision and it was a decision they made and one that I’ve adjusted to and learned to accept,” Vaas said. “Did it come as a surprise? When I first learned about it, I would say yes—something like that is always a surprise, but that’s the way it was.”

a whole, the Duke community is often criticized for creating committees that lack substance or substantial purpose, and for this very reason the administration should not look to create a hew president’s panel for Asian students or other minority groups—at least for the time being.

Last week, the Asian Students Association called for a group like the President’s Council on Black Affairs to represent its constituency.

not need to have the same channels for getting things done. Just because there is a president’s council for black students does not necessarily mean all other minority groups need parallel forms of

representation.

If minorities cannot fix the issues they see as troubling through voting and their respective student organizations, other channels do exist. As a whole, the administration is extremely accessible to student concerns, especially through

the availability of Provost Peter Lange, Vice President Larry Moneta, Dean Steven Nowicki, along with a number of other key administrators.

We do sympathize with the ASA’s lack of contact with President Richard Brodhead, and

strongly feel that the president

should make himself more accessible to students as a whole.

This can be done, however, through an allotment of more meeting time to students, and does not warrant a new presidential council.

ASA’s call is also fundamentally differentfrom black students’ demands were when PCOBA was founded.

There is no unifying background in Asian culture—the term Asian encompasses people of extremely different geographic, historical and religious backgrounds. Even within ASA, there are myriad ethnicities that would make a proposed “committee on Asian affairs” hard to unify and even harder to steer toward singular communication.

PCOBA has historically and

in its contemporary form had a singular mission and been extremely effective in addressing black issues in the context of Duke. The council also has a significant link to the almost 50 percent of Durham’s population which is black, and to the traditionalproblems facing blacks living in the South.

In short, then, the current system isn’t broken enough to warrant any fixing. Creating a new council would be largely cosmetic in nature and would only contribute to the proliferation of superfluous councils and committees.

Iflegitimate need for such a panel arose through the identification of concrete issues down the line, however, this board does believe the University should reconsider creation of such a panel.

Every

single job interview I have gone through has included some variation on this question: “How did you choose Duke, and why was it right for you?”

I always want to look at them and just smirk, knowing they’ll never understand. Sadly, experience has taught me that silence is simply not a good response to a question from a potential employer.

So I inevitably spout off plenty of cliches: It was a hard decision, and jordan everson there are so many one fine morning great schools out there, but having lived in Chapel Hill until the age of 10, Duke felt like the right choice, a homecoming of sorts. I continue to explain all of the wonderful things Duke offers: great classes and classmates, an intensely challenging academic atmosphere and palpable school spirit built around athletics—something missing from many of our peer universities.

I answer their question. I don’t lie, but I don’t exacdy tell the truth either.

Because somehow I think the full and honest truth wouldn’t suffice. I could never convey the image of a 17-year-old kid deciding on an impulse to click the “early decision” box while filling out his application —binding himself to a decision without ever having stepped on campus.

I could not explain how my time here has been, how lucky I was freshman year to end up in a dorm where I made meaningful friends and how unimaginably different my life would have been if I had been placed in any other dorm.

How could I depict the absurdrole that luck has had in my experience at Duke? I can’t tell them about the time I decided whether or not to pledge a fraternity by flipping a coin and hope to remain respectable in their eyes. And how could I explain that one trip to a neighboring school fundamentally changed the last two years of my life?

Could they understand how one class completely decided my major? How half of me has always wondered if that was the right choice, while the other half acknowledges that I never really had a choice, that it is and always will be what I am drawn toward?

I can’t explain my Duke. It’s not basketball or Tailgate; it’s not classes, classmates or professors; it’s not extracurricular activities dr clubs.

My Duke is friends. It’s frisbee in the gardens on the first warm weekend of spring. It’s a filthy house offEast Campus with too many smelly guys.

It’s a late night followed by an early morning.

My Duke isn’t even Duke; it’s a semester spent in London on my own, away not only from Duke but from Dukies as well.

Now I’ve made some mistakes in my time at Duke. I am not the president of anything, not a leader or key figure in any club or sport. Looking at my Duke career, you could call it mediocre: Duke has taught me the important and painful lesson that not everything comes easy, that no matter how fast, smart or good you are, there will always be someone faster, smarter and better.

But Duke is teaching me anotherlesson too. Happiness and success are not the same thing. They’re not even close. How could I explain to my future employer that my buddy buying the ninth season of “Seinfeld” on DVD probably made me happier than being flown out to California for a job interview?

I can’t. I can’t explain my Duke —not to them, and as I write this, I realize I can’t explain it to you either. It’s too personal, too close to home... too mine.

Whenever administrators try to initiate changes to campus culture, I can’t help but react sardonically. How could you change my Duke? They could try. They could shake up the social scene, eliminate greek life or reorganize the living situation.

But they could never touch my Duke because my Duke is ephemeral, indefinable and yet somehow more real than any building or policy. It is the simple humanity that creates Duke.

To paraphrase Dicky Fox from “Jerry Maguire,” I don’t have all the answers. At Duke, to be honest, I have failed as much as I have succeeded. But I love my life, and I wish you my kind of success.

I know that this sounds like the kind of column you see coming from seniors in the last week or so of school each year. It might sound similar, but I’m going to tell you this: I have six months of Duke left before I graduate and then it is gone forever.

For those six months, my Duke will flourish. Make sure your Duke does the same.

lettertotheeditor Don’t overlook Duke’s Native American students While we appreciate The Chronicle’s Nov. 8 article “Minorities call for new committees,” it surprised us

that the article did not even mention Native Americans among Duke’s minority population.

This omission highlights the perpetual ignorance and apathy students and administrators alike have for Duke’s minorities, particularly Native Americans. Especially at the current moment, Duke prides herself on engaging diversity. However, too often Duke administrators work to placate large minorities already present at Duke, while neglecting and alienating Native Americans before they even consider Duke.

Duke does not have Native American administrators, faculty or a cultural center, while many of our peers boast all of these assets. Duke lacks a Native American studies department, unlike peer institutions such as Stanford and Penn. While many Native Americans are capable of getting into Duke, they choose schools that embrace Natives—schools like the University of North Carolina, Harvard, Dartmouth and Stanford. For prospective Native students, a choice to come here means not just being the minority, but being the only member from a culture. Moreover, the typical Duke undergraduate class has only two or three Native students (often

from different tribes and therefore different cultures). How can so few students represent an entire people to the Duke community?

Native Americans at Duke have a history of lobbying administrators for greater recognition and for the same opportunities Natives at our peer institutions (and even UNC) receive such as on-campus faculty mentors and cultural spaces. Although there are bright spots for Natives at Duke, like the Native American Student Alliance and the Multicultural Center, too often Native issues have been ignored, and administrators’ promises unfulfilled.

Natives here play the waiting game when it comes to effective (not just token) administrator responses, due to “scheduling conflicts,” “other priorities” and continual pleas for “patience.” Perhaps we do not need more president’s committees, but we do need to expand our understanding of diversity. Perhaps the President’s Council on Black Affairs becoming a President’s Commission on Minority Affairs would be more embracing. Attempts to expand the definition of “black” have fallen on deafears, so a new beginning may be what’s needed now.

One

of the things I love about colleges in general, and Duke in particular, is that the students are always ready to leap to the defense ofcivil liberties.

Freedom, and especially the freedom of speech, is held sacrosanct, like a priceless jewel in a high tower, closely guarded by the gendarmes de la liberte.

That is, of course, unless people happen to disagree with what you’re saying. I mean, freedom of speech is all well and good, but you’re not allowed to be mean That is, at least, the position taken by some over a gossip-themed Web site called JuicyCampus.com that has been the topic of Oliver shefOUSG much conversation recentyou tell me ly. The premise of the site is this: Anyone can post a comment anonymously, and anyone can respond anonymously. And we can’t have that, now can we?

Critics of the Web site have railed against it, calling it an “abuse of free speech.” They’ve labeled it a “marketplace of slander” and mourned its “deleterious effects.” An image comes to mind of crusty English aristocrats bellowing “Shame, shame!” around the halls of Westminster.

And what these critics fail to realize is that freedoms don’t work that way. Freedom cannot, in fact, be abused: that term applies to privileges. And when we start thinking of speech as a privilege that can be revoked rather than a right that is innate, we will find ourselves on the road to speech codes and other forms of thought-monitoring to which so many other colleges have already fallen prey.

The critics seem to see this weakness in their argument, and so they feel the need to add that the Web site is amoral as well as overly free. And that may well be, but I thought we were supposed to be against the imposition of our morals on others. Certainly when a Chronicle columnist recently gave his moral opinion on gay marriage, he was shouted down for doing just that. But apparently some moral ideas need to be strongly enforced, while others have no place in the public arena. There’s a word for such situations that I cannot quite recall, but you can probably think of it.

Now, before I give the impression that I’m endorsing slander and hate and all manner of nasty things, I should explain exactly what I think about this Web site.

First, the site is fairly slow, and many of the posts have no responses. The more popular threads feature titles like “Duke’s Best Legs.” My own were somehow omitted from that list, an oversight I easily corrected. “The Most Overrated Person at Duke” is another favorite, and beyond that it rather devolves into ramblings on frats (mostly by frat members) and a few more vulgar topics.

In short, it’s stupid. Middle-school stuff.

So why am I going to bat for this inane site while at the same time calling on myself the ire of the PC machine?

Well, partly it’s because of the whole freedom business I mentioned. But it’s also because however stupid the site may be, it’s equally stupid to get offended by it.

Some favorite philosophers of mine once said, “Who cries over spilled milk? If you cry over milk, what are you going to do when someone punches you in the throat and you can’t breathe?” Well this Web site is like spilled milk that went sour a month ago, when you have two gallons of fresh milk with which to replace it. It is anonymous idiots slapping each other—or more often, themselves—on the back for saying a few dirty words and mindlessly repeating “Yeah, I went there” to nobody in particular.

So one of these hacks said something mean about you?

So what? Shall I fetch for you the world’s smallest violin, to play upon it the saddest song? Their opinions are quite obviously not worth considering, and if your image of yourself is so flimsy as to be altered by them, then those opinions are the least ofyour problems.

You and I are not, after all, children on a playground. We are proud young adults, studying at an elite institution and preparing to enter a world that couldn’t care less about thin skin and bruised feelings. We’re big enough to take a real hit, let alone these utterly dismissible spitballs, and keep going.

And one day when we all realize just how silly JuicyO ampus.com is, we’ll wonder why anybody ever even cared about it in the first place.
