Cross | Loiselle, Rivard suffer setbacks during season, persevere to run at MACs

Competitive field too much for women

continued from 1B

By D.J. Palomares Staff Reporter

Runners in mixed jerseys from across the Mid-American Conference stood stretching and jumping Saturday to generate enough heat to stay warm. As the whistle blew at Mount Pleasant’s Riverwood Resort, there was silence and everyone was still. Then, as the start gun fired, 104 athletes sprung to life in the pinnacle meet for the MAC. The women’s cross country team found out quickly how competitive the conference is, and did so with a sixth-place finish. Karen Lutzke “Heading into the race we knew it was going to be a very tough battle for every place,” said junior Jackie Rivard. “We expected to do better than last year, and we did.” Junior Kelly McClure again was CMU’s top finisher in 19th place as the team improved on last season’s disappointing seventh-place finish to finish sixth. Only nine seconds separated junior Amanda Rudert from McClure, while redshirt freshman Missy Darling was the Chippewas’ third finisher, followed by senior Libby Carpenter. CMU’s main focus was to continue running as a pack, which it accomplished by having the second shortest time between its first and last runner. “Going into the meet we had a goal of being one of the top three teams,” said junior Michelle Di-

verio. “We, as a team, are disappointed we did not meet our goal and slightly frustrated in knowing we have the potential and talent to place higher. I do not think the way we placed in this race speaks to how good our team is this year.” Ohio University finished first, placing three runners in the top 10, while Akron, Miami, Toledo and Ball State rounded out the top five of the MAC. Miami sophomore Laura Neufarth won the event after battling throughout the race with Ball State’s Alison Bishel. “The conference has improved so much this year,” said coach Karen Lutzke. “We fin-

ished sixth and are ranked 13th in our region. Our athletes are running better, but so is the conference as a whole group.” The Chippewas’ biggest challenge was overcoming the injuries that have plagued them all season. Heading into the race freshman Rachel Wittum and Rivard were trying to run injured. “I personally was hurt so I did not run as well as I would have wanted, but being injured I did all I could,” Wittum said. “Our team went out and did the best that we could for that day, that is all we could have asked for.” sports@cm-life.com

men | Team finishes third behind Miami, EMU Saturday at conference championship meet continued from 1B

Also earning second team All-MAC honors for Central was freshman Sammy Kiprotich, who finished 13th overall in 25:22. Kiprotich led the way for CMU for most of the race until being passed by Loiselle late. “I just tried to maintain,” he said. “This was a good place to start for my first MAC meet.” The 2007 championship is the third in a row for Eastern. The Eagles were heavily favored going into this year’s title race. “Everyone that ran today contributed to the effort,” said EMU coach John Goodridge. “This

was the most important date for us. This is a championship we take very seriously.” Eastern had three runners earn first team All-MAC honors, including first-place finisher and MAC individual champion junior Josh Perrin. Perrin, one of the top performers for EMU all season, ran the 8K race in 24:33. Goodridge was named MAC Coach of the Year for helping Eastern at the top of the MAC. The second-place finish for the RedHawks was a solid showing for a team that consists of mostly freshman and sophomores. The team’s young runners were able to prove that they

can compete at a veteran level. “We ran exceptionally well,” said Miami coach Warren Mandrell. “Five guys in the top sixteen is an excellent day.” The Chippewas now turn their focus to the NCAA Great Lakes Regional meet, which will take place on Nov. 10 in Bloomington, Ind. CMU hopes to bounce back from their finish in this event and put themselves in shape to contend for a regional title. “We’re not going to be down about this,” Fuller said. “We’ve got to look to be competitive at regionals.” sports@cm-life.com

Rivard said she has trained only about four times during the past few weeks because of injury, but still competed Saturday. “Obviously, it didn’t go as well as I hoped,” she said. “I never really got into my training this year.” Because of her limited amount of practice, Jackie Rivard fatigue was a factor for Rivard. She said she started to tire at about halfway through the 5-kilometer race. “My goal was just to push it,” she said. “We did the best we could. I just wanted to help the team out as much as I could.” During Rivard’s absence this season, other runners improved. Juniors Kelly McClure led Central Saturday with a 19th-place finish, while Amanda Rudert was 29th. The Chippewas lose senior Elizabeth Carpenter to graduation, but they did improve one spot on last season’s seventh-place MAC Championships finish. And they will gain another key piece — a healthy Rivard. Senior sendoff Loiselle has finished as high as fourth in the MAC Championships in 2005 as a sophomore, and finished eighth last season. Despite training for only a few weeks, he still was frustrated with his ninth-place finish. “I feel like I’ve let everyone down,” he said. “I didn’t really have as much training as I wanted to, but that isn’t really an excuse. I came in thinking I could win.” Loiselle, along with freshman Sammy Kiprotich and sophomore Riak Mabil, started the race well, running right with the lead pack of runners. Kiprotich was ninth heading into the last loop near the finish line, while Loiselle was 11th. Loiselle made a senior-

esque push at the end, making up two spots to finish ninth. During the last straightway, he held off a pack off four runners, including Kiprotich. “Right at the finish line, it’s pretty much all Eastern and Central people, and they were all yelling,” Loiselle said. “I turned and saw an Eastern guy was coming, so I figured if I can salvage anything, it’s not

letting that guy beat me.” Loiselle earned secondteam All-MAC honors, but after the race was anything but satisfied. “I feel like I let (coach Craig) Fuller down because five years ago he was recruiting me hard and I never won the MAC meet individually,” he said. rsgro@cm-life.com

Hoosiers look to carry momentum Colts hoping offensive line holds up into October as Big Ten play begins By Michael Marot The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS – The Indianapolis Colts offensive linemen winced during film sessions this week. There it was, in full, living color: Peyton Manning being sacked, taking the occasional hit and getting twisted to the ground at Tennessee. To most teams, giving up two sacks and seven quarterback hits in a game might not be a big deal. But when you’re the league’s best protection unit over an eight-year span and you’re protecting the Super Bowl MVP, any little glitch gets noticed. “That doesn’t happen very often and to our guys, to their credit, that’s not acceptable,” coach Tony Dungy said. “That’s a good thing.” Since 1999, no offensive line has put up better numbers than Indianapolis (2-0). It has allowed the league’s lowest sacks average (1.2) over the last 157 games, allowed the fewest sacks in a season five times, been ranked in the top four seven times and cleared the

IU squares off against Evansville, coach’s alma mater By Ryan Gregg rgregg@indiana.edu

The story line for the women’s soccer team in September has been to go out and find ways not to lose. With a record of 5-01 in September to date, they’re on a familiar track. Last September had the same story line, as the Hoosiers notched a record of 6-0-3 for the month. Unfortunately, October brought a plot twist worthy of a Stephen King novel that crippled their season. The Hoosiers started October last year 3-0-1 before a 1-0 loss to Northwestern. IU then lost four more onegoal games to finish their season, including a 2-1 lose to Michigan in the Big Ten tournament. With Evansville coming to town Sunday, the Hoosiers have a chance to improve their record in September to 6-0-1 (6-1-1 on the season) with a win. After Evansville, IU will begin the Big Ten season and try to avoid the same outcome as last year. “Looking from last season when we lost our first game, it definitely sent us down the wrong path,” sophomore defender Kelly Lawrence said. “If we can get a good result against Evansville and get a bit of confidence for the team, we’ll be in good shape for the Big Ten.” Evansville will be the third straight in-state foe for the Hoosiers. IU topped Ball State at home Sunday and Butler on the road Wednesday. Senior defender Katy Stewart said that beating another Indiana team means more than other non-conference teams of the same caliber. “We are looking to come and just put them all away,” Stewart said. “We have had a little bit of a difficult time the last two games, so we are looking to come out right away and put them on their heels

and show them what it means to play at Indiana.” This weekend’s game does have a little more incentive for the squad. IU coach Mick Lyon played for Evansville and coached the Aces before coming to IU. “There is no doubt (an added incentive to beating Evansville),” Lyon said. “I’m not going to get beat by my alma mater, that’s for sure.” With their strong month, the Hoosiers have climbed to eighth in the Great Lakes Region poll by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. They have also received votes for the national top 25 in the last two polls. “It is nice to get on a run, but unfortunately, you can break at the end of it,” Lyon said. “And last year, we had a brilliant run in the

month of September, which is great when you can get in that kind of situation, no doubt about it. But we need to make sure we don’t get preoccupied by it like we did last year.” After the Aces, IU will open their Big Ten season next Friday at home against Northwestern, the same team who started last year’s misery. Lawrence said that conference play is when the real season for the Hoosiers starts. “Definitely, every game counts, (because) it helps toward the NCAA tournament,” Lawrence said. “But when it comes to Big Ten games, it really is the next level, and every game is more important than the last.” The Hoosiers take on Evansville at 2 p.m. Sunday at Bill Armstrong Stadium.

liams and Okoye each have two sacks this season, and Okoye is tied for the conference lead among defensive tackles with Jacksonville’s Marcus Stroud. Neither Kansas City nor Carolina managed to get much going in the ground game against the Texans. And after being held to only 45 offensive plays in last year’s surprising 27-24 loss at Houston, the Colts understand the challenge they face. “Their defensive front is a very athletic group,” Manning said. “I mean Williams is an extremely talented guy who’s just got tons of ability. Across the board, they’re very solid. They play hard, they play together and they’re sound in what they do.” Injuries could make this week’s task even more challenging. Right tackle Ryan Diem missed his second straight day of practice Thursday with a neck injury and Dungy has not said whether he will play against Houston. Backup tackle Charlie Johnson, who missed the first two games with a knee injury, returned to practice Thursday and might play Sunday.

way for 1,000-yard runners in seven of the last eight seasons. They’ve been so flawless that Manning, now in his 10th NFL season, has never missed a start. So the aberration at Tennessee has forced the linemen to take a hard look at what happened. “There were some mental mistakes and some physical mistakes,” two-time Pro Bowl center Jeff Saturday said. “You can fix the mental mistakes pretty quickly. The physical mistakes, those are sometimes caused by who you’re playing.” In the case of the Titans, that meant dealing with a defensive line that included one of the league’s biggest defensive tackles, Albert Haynesworth, and one of the league’s top passrushers, Kyle Vanden Bosch. This week, the Colts (2-0) face one of the league’s most improved lines at Houston. Pairing defensive end Mario Williams, the top pick in the 2006 draft, with rookie defensive tackle Amobi Okoye, this year’s first-round pick, on the right side has given the Texans a dangerous one-two combination.

Reality star gives backstage glance to popular TV show n

By Rachel Rouse Daily Staff Writer

Veishea is known for bringing celebrities to campus for the weeklong celebration of Iowa State. With the help of STA Travel, 2526 Lincoln Way, Veishea welcomed Jose Tapia of MTV’s “The Real World: Key West” to campus last Friday to host the first VEISHEA Extreme Challenge. After the challenge, Tapia talked to fans in the Maintenance Shop of the Memorial Union. “We went to the challenge and wanted to come talk to him here, too,” said Nadya Gonzalez, sophomore in animal ecology. He talked about his “Real World” experience and how it has changed his life. Tapia was raised in Brooklyn, N.Y. and relates his life to being dealt a bad hand in poker. His mother was 17 years old when she had him, and his father was an abusive alcoholic. During his first few years in high school, he hung

out with the wrong crowd and got a 1.5 GPA. He moved to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., when he was a junior in high school and turned his life around. Tapia auditioned for “The Real World: Key West” with no expectations of making it on the show. He’d watched the previous seasons and thought it would be a lot of fun. Because he didn’t want to look back and regret not giving it a shot, he drove three hours to a casting call. There were four months of interviews before the final cast was assembled. “You learn a lot about yourself through the interview process,” Tapia said. He said he still remembers getting the phone call to tell him he would be spending four months living in Key West with six strangers. Not many of Tapia’s friends or family knew he was going to be on “The Real World” until they started seeing previews for the new series on TV. He had told them he got an internship and was going to be gone for a few months. Tapia recalls his “Real World” experience as “a lot of highs and a lot of lows.” He said you learn to

adjust to the cameras, but the real challenge is dealing with six different personalities on a daily basis with no privacy. “I was the normal guy who sat back and laughed at everyone,” Tapia recalls. His main goal during the show was to stay true to himself and not put on a show for the cameras. His honesty and likable personality make him a favorite cast member of many Real World fans. Tapia talked about the realness of living in “The Real World” house. He said they only provide you with a house to live in, but the housemates pay for all of the other expenses such as gas, food and entertainment. The biggest benefit from “The Real World” has been traveling, Tapia says. While on the show, STA Travel sent the housemates to Spain, where they visited cities such as Madrid and Barcelona. Since the show, Tapia has been to more than 40 states in the United States talking to fans about his life and experiences on the show. When asked if he would be on “The Real World” again, Tapia said he would in a heartbeat. “They were the best four months of my life,” he said.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN

Defensive mentality might be sinking in for Lady Lions By Tom Copain

I

’LL JUST COME out

and say it. What happened at the Bryce Jordan Center on Sunday wasn’t pretty. In fact, it was something that would make most coaches pull MY OPINION their hair out. Penn State women’s basketball coach Coquese Washington didn’t look especially pleased during most of the game. Sunday resembled two weeks ago, when Penn State had just pulled out a narrow victory against Drexel, a game during which Washington said her team didn’t play up to its standards. But Washington wasn’t disappointed Sunday. In fact, far from it.

Washington was actually quite pleased after her team gave its best defensive performance of the season in the Lady Lions’ 56-47 win over Georgetown. She was quick to point out that Sunday was not like Drexel. “We’re a little tired, and this was a hard fought game,” Washington said. “We knew that coming into the game that this wouldn’t be a cakewalk.” Tired or not, to say Sunday’s game was aesthetically pleasing to the denizens of Lady Lion nation is like saying that 6-4 game the football team played a couple of years ago was an offensive shootout. Sunday could be defined by defense, but the good defense was more a product of horrific shooting. When there are two teams that missed layups not just once, but multiple times in a game, that’s not good defense. That’s bad offense, and good defense is just a result. Good defense is holding a team to 29 percent shooting, while not allowing it to take a lot of shots. George-

“We were working the ball and getting good shots. We just were not finishing on some of them. Our shooting will come,” O’Rourke said. “Every night, your whole team is not on. We are concentrating on our defense so if we have the defensive end going our offense is going to come.” Fatigue is a major cause for missed shots. Most of the power and balance for a shot comes from the legs. If a shooter’s legs are tired, the shot will be off its mark, a potential cause for Penn State’s 36 misses on Sunday. The root of the shooting problems is not easy to define, but Washington said it was not from lack of resolve. “They are a bunch that give effort. I know that if they aren’t giving me effort it’s probably because they’re tired and not because they’re just not interested or they are lazy or anything like that,” Washington said. “We have a shorter bench and that’s going to tax our starting lineup.”

for the Olympics. Bartsch agreed, and the Philippine swimmers moved to Los Angeles and joined Team Trojan. About one month before the Olympics, he was approached with an offer to be the head coach of the Philippine team at the Olympics. After initially refusing the offer out of respect for the coaches from the country, he accepted a second offer and went on to help the swimmers break eight Philippine national records in Barcelona. “It was a great honor, and they could not be nicer and more supportive,” he said. “The athletes were just great. I had worked with them on a daily basis for 18 months, so I had gotten to know them quite well.” The majority of Bartsch’s coaching career has been spent at the college level. He left USC to take over as head coach at Villanova in 1994 and led the women’s team to back-to-back Big East championships in 1995 and 1996 before leaving the program following the 1999-2000 season. In 2001, Penn State head coach Bill

DeChellis From Page 8. night, and something the younger players have not seen yet this season. DeChellis and his staff have experience facing the Princeton offense in the Big Ten. Northwestern coach Bill Carmody was head coach at Princeton from 1996-2000 and runs the Princeton offense. “You have to adjust to the different styles of play and this is the first real adjustment we have to make in terms of style of play,” DeChellis said. “For our older guys once we go through it a couple of times they’ll see this is the Northwestern stuff. But for the younger guys it’ll be completely different.” The Lions showed their ability to adjust mid-game against Seton Hall by switching to a 2-3 zone at halftime after the Pirates scored 52 points in the first half. After playing a zone for most of last year’s 11-19 season, DeChellis does not want to play it primarily but is resigned to the fact he might have to. “Some nights something’s just not going to be working for you, but you have to be able to go to something else,” DeChellis said. “You have to have some multiple things. I’m not sure with as many young guys we’re playing, we’re going to be able to lock in with man to man for 40 minutes and play people. We’re going to have to mix things up.”

Although the victory over Seton Hall was an improvement defensively and offensively, it did expose one of the Lions’ biggest weaknesses — free throw shooting. Despite attempting a season-high 24 free throws on Saturday, the Lions converted only 12 free throws, including three late misses by Mike Walker, who missed only three free throw attempts all of last season. DeChellis said some of the team’s struggles on the free throw line are mental. “It’s so much different when the game’s on the line,” DeChellis said. “You try to put pressure on kids in the middle of practice. Mike’s missed three in a row now. Part of that is thinking about it now rather than just going ahead and shooting it.” Cornley continues recovery Cornley played a season-high 33 minutes as he continues to recover from a bruised left knee. Cornley said the injury will be something he has to deal with all year. “The knee’s going to be the knee,” he said. “It’s going to swell up every now and then or pretty much after every game.” Cornley, known for playing rough in the post, said the injury has affected his style, but he said he won’t hesitate to push himself with the game on the line, as he did against Seton Hall. “My approach has been different because I don’t want to do anything stupid, but at the same time, winning is my No. 1 obligation,” he said.

struggles, as O’Rourke, Grant, and Williams did for most of Sunday. Instead, Washington got double-doubles from Gissendanner and Rashida Mark, who had 10 points and 10 rebounds. “This is the kind of defensive effort we’ve been seeking from the team for a long time,” Washington said. Even after the win, Washington’s bunch still has the worst scoring defense in the Big Ten. The Lady Lions have to figure out how to win on the road, especially considering their last two outings haven’t been that impressive. Or close. But the fact that Penn State might be learning to play defense might be the shining star to take from Sunday afternoon. It might be the only thing to take other than the win. It sure as heck wasn’t the offense.

town did shoot 29 percent from the field, but that was on 18-of-61 shooting, including 1-of-15 from behind the arc. Of course, the Lady Lions were only marginally better on offense. Penn State made only 30 percent of its shots and only 3-of-14 3-pointers. The second half was a microcosm of what happens when there’s no offense in a basketball game. The Lady Lions shot 5-of-22 in the second half. Five-of-22. That’s colder than cold. That’s colder than the Yukon Territories in December. Georgetown didn’t do much better, making just 9-of-32 shots in the second half. One can see the pattern here. Georgetown coach Terri WilliamsFlournoy even said that the Lady Lions didn’t do anything different defensively to frustrate the Hoya offense. She said after the game her team just didn’t hit shots. “We can’t go 18-for-61 and really think we’re going to win a ball

game,” Williams-Flournoy said. “We can’t get outrebounded and think we’re going to win a ball game.” The only thing the Lady Lions did do consistently on offense is get to the line, shooting 21-of-29 on free throws, continuing the trend that Penn State wins when it can get to the line. But it is games like these that can sometimes show the character of a team, and realistically this was a game the Lady Lions needed to win. All six of the previous wins, the Lady Lions relied on the offense. More specifically, Washington needed to rely on the scoring quartet of Kam Gissendanner, Tyra Grant, Brianne O’Rourke and Mashea Williams. Sunday might have shown Washington that her team can win when the offense struggles, but more importantly, it showed that her team can play defense when the offense struggles. Washington also saw that her role players can step up when the quartet

Dorenkott asked Bartsch if he would come to Penn State to oversee the distance swimmers. “One of the reasons we asked Ed to come over and be a part of our staff is because he brought a wealth of experience and knowledge,” Dorenkott said. “That in itself is a unique element to what he brings to our program. There are a lot of times our athletes or our coaches will go to Ed and ask for advice just based on experience.” Bartsch’s wealth of experience makes him well-qualified as an assistant coach, and he said that he accepted a position as an assistant because Dorenkott was willing to give him a lot of independence as a coach. Dorenkott believes Bartsch’s ability to practically relate experience to his athletes is a major advantage. “We’ve never had a stronger distance program than during the period of time while Ed’s been here,” Dorenkott said. “We’ve had a good distance swimmer here and there, but just our depth and our quality of distance swimming over the past seven years has been remarkable and that’s attributable directly to Ed and his influence over our program.” Bartsch’s distance swimmers have

taken over the Penn State record books. The top four women’s swimmers in Penn State history in both the 1000 freestyle and 1650 freestyle all swam under his direction. As he stands on the pool deck watching practice, the different aspects of Bartsch’s personality and coaching style are conveyed. Every swimmer who walks by en route to the locker room jokes with him. But when it comes down to instructing in practice, Bartsch is all business. While he is tough on his athletes, they trust him and know he truly cares about their success. “I swam my best times last week,” sophomore Stephanie Roop said. “The first thing he said to me was, ‘I’m proud of you,’ and that means so much coming from him.” Standing next to her, junior Sarah Baker was quick to agree that Bartsch genuinely cares about his athletes’ performances. “It’s not like just another coach being like ‘Good, more points for the team,’ ” Baker said. “He really cares about how we’re doing and that’s why he’s so intense in practice and on the pool deck.” When asked about his proudest moment as a swimmer, Bartsch

described the feeling of winning gold at the Pan American Games. He said the most emotional moment occurred when he stood on the podium afterward and listened as the national anthem was played. Forty-four years after earning Pan American gold, Bartsch prepares his swimmers to have similar moments in which the feeling of accomplishment becomes overwhelming. “When it comes down to it, when I step up on the block at Big Tens, I’m going to know that he’s prepared me to be the best I can be,” Baker said. “Hands down, I’m not going to doubt it at all.” Bartsch was told that it is too difficult to make a living as a swim coach. But with so much enthusiasm and passion for the sport and a desire to help others succeed, it appears that he made the correct career choice. “I’ve never felt it was the place; it was always the people,” he said. “Whether there was a language barrier or not, they were just great people to work with. And that’s why I think I really look back on it and I say it was never the wrong decision. I’ve never been happier doing what I’m doing because of the young people I’m working with.”

Penn State not only beat the teams, but they completely overpowered them. “They just seemed more fired up,” Michigan junior defensive specialist Kerry Hance said. “It seemed like they were just out of control.” After upsetting Washington, BYU posed the strongest upset threat going into the regional final match against Penn State. The way the Lions dismantled the Cougars showed the Lions may have defeated any team as easily. “We played some nice teams this year,” BYU coach Jason Watson said. “Quite easily, Penn State is the best team we played this year. “We would like them to go and win the national championship of course. They are that caliber of a team.”

Road Trip

Juggernaut From Page 8. State met last Friday, Rosen said the Lions were more consistent by committing fewer errors with better ball handling. Still, Rosen said he knew exactly what to expect from the physical Lions, but there was little his team could do about it. “That’s one thing we have said about Penn State, they do what they do, and they’re planning on doing it better than you,” Rosen said.

If the Lions hope to capture the program’s second national championship, Penn State will have to go through two Pac-10 teams. The Lions are the only team outside of the Pac10 to make the national semifinals. One of the team’s possibly standing between Penn State and a national title is No. 1-seeded Stanford. The Cardinal took a five-game thriller over the Lions in the Yale Classic on Sept. 15. “When you’re playing the best teams, you have an opportunity to learn what you need to do to get better,” Penn State coach Russ Rose

said of losses to Stanford and No. 2seeded Nebraska. “We’ve had some struggles. Those matches weren’t maybe as big of struggles as we’ve had getting the players to understand the importance of each of them being accountable and responsible .” Before a potential rematch, Penn State first has its sights set on No. 10seeded California. Despite the team’s domination thus far, Penn State outside hitter Nicole Fawcett said the national title is still very much up for grabs. “At this point, any team is good enough to win right now,” she said.

City denies liquor store move After opposition from mosque, Zoning Board denies application to move Market St. store By MADELEINE KRONOVET Beacon School ’06 New York, N.Y.

The Market Street liquor store — a favorite stop for many Penn students — was set to move this past semester, but those plans have been halted by the Philadelphia Zoning Board of Adjustment. The Zoning Board denied owner Daniel DeRitis’s application last month to move the wine and spirits store currently located at 41st and Market streets to a larger venue at 4237 Walnut St. The decision came in the wake of vehement protests on the part of the area’s local Muslim population. DeRitis has filed an appeal, but the board’s decision was nonetheless a victory for the Masjid Al-Jamia mosque. The mosque is located across the street from the proposed location, and members argued that a liquor store nearby would ruin a thriving neighborhood.

Moving the store would bring a “liquor infestation in the midst of a family-oriented neighborhood,” mosque spokeswoman Rayual Muhammad said at a March 21 zoning board hearing. Muhammad was supported by Ahmed Rushdie, a professor in Penn’s Near Eastern Language and Civilizations Department, and College junior and Muslim Student Association vice president Artina Sheikh, among others, all of whom argued that a local elementary school and a large number of families would be negatively affected. Many Muslims also argued that the presence of a liquor store in the immediate area was an affront to their religious views, which prohibit the consumption of alcohol. Pennsylvania law states that liquor stores cannot be located within 300 feet of any elementary or secondary school. The Penn-Alexander School, a Penn-affiliated school that en-

rolls students in kindergarten through eighth grade, is located at 4209 Spruce St., outside the 300-feet guideline. However, the law also states that the Zoning Board can take the presence of other community institutions, such as houses of worship, under consideration when making a decision. “We beseech you to exercise your moral decency,” Muhammed said at the hearing. DeR itis and others expressed surprise at the Zoning Board’s decision, since the move had the support of many community members as well as Councilwoman Jannie Blackwell, who represents the area. Zoning Board officials have not announced the reasoning behind their decision, and there is currently no date set for the appeal. “We’re not going to give up on it,” DeRitis said.

Building of green space to begin Penn’s expansion to the river By ZOE TILLMAN Wilson High School ’05 Washington, D.C.

Penn’s eastward expansion plan may include provisions for lofty feats of architectural genius, but, come fall, all eyes will be on the parking lots. The University is gearing up this summer to finally break ground on its long-awaited eastward expansion plan. The ceremony will also kick-off a billion-dollar capital fundraising campaign. Completion of the 30-year development plan will expand campus by 24 acres. A new College House, new Medical School buildings, green space and other facilities are planned for the space. It all starts, though, with the

parking lots along the banks of the Schuykill River, which will be converted into green space over the course of the year. Current students will be long gone by the time many of the more anticipated projects are completed — the planned bridge connecting Locust Walk and Center City certainly topping the list. However, administrators say that creating green space should be done early in part to make sure this generation of Penn students benefits. The Penn Campus Development Plan was officially released last June. The University had been working with Boston-based design firm Sasaki Associates Inc. to develop it since August 2005. Commencement of construction hinges on the University’s official purchase of the lands to the east from the U.S. Postal Service. Despite delays throughout the year, the purchase is expected to be completed this summer.

There is no official estimate for how much the total plan will cost. The first phase alone will cost $1.94 billion, with taxpayers paying about 10 percent and the University covering the rest. Penn has gained global recognition for the plan, which supposedly integrates sustainable building practices and a unique fusion of urban and campus spaces. Many of the projects are expected to attract the world’s top architects and designers to Wester Philadelphia, as well as a host of new commercial establishments. Notably, Philadelphia restauranteur Steven Starr has confirmed that he hopes to open a new restaurant on campus to complement the already exisiting Pod. The Penn and University City communities have few negative things to say about the expansion plans. Traffic disruptions are expected to be minimal, and new business means more capital flowing back into the area.
