It’s not often that a punter makes the most important play in a football game, but that was arguably the case in Winston-Salem Saturday afternoon.

Duke sophomore Will Monday punted five times for an average of 45 yards, including a 57-yard boot that set Duke up for an easy touchdown when Wake Forest fumbled deep in its own end of the field.

That Blue Devil score gave Duke a 27-20 lead that it would not relinquish en route to a 34-27 victory, its first win against Wake Forest since 1999. Breaking the streak against the Demon Deacons was far from the only landmark of the day, as the Blue Devils earned

“That feeling in the locker room a second ago, that’s why I came to Duke, that’s why you play college football,” Vernon said after the game. “To finally get over the hump and end that streak—it’s great. I wouldn’t want it any other way.”

But it was Monday’s crucial punt at the end of the first Blue Devil drive of the fourth quarter that ultimately turned the game in Duke’s favor. The Demon Deacons had just tied the SEE FOOTBALL ON SPORTSWRAP 4

The University’s second capital campaign in history launched this weekend in an enthusiastic affirmation of Duke’s strategic priorities as an innovative and progressive institution.

Duke Forward: Partnering for the Future became official with the Board of Trustees’ approval and an announcement to donors Saturday afternoon. The campaign’s goal is set at $3.25 billion, and about $1.325 billion was raised in the campaign’s silent phase, which began in July 2010.

The campaign will conclude in June 2017 and will raise funds for all of the University’s schools, Duke Medicine, athletics, facilities and financial aid, among other initiatives.

Nearly one-third of the campaign dollars will be injected directly into the University’s endowment, which was valued at $5.6 billion at the close of fiscal year 2011-2012. Growing the size of the University’s endowment is one of the primary motivations in this capital campaign, as it is essential

On-campus drug law violations more than tripled, and alcohol law violations increased by nearly 40 percent in 2011, according to a report issued by the Duke University Police Department.

The 2012-2013 Annual Clery Security Report includes statistics from the previous three years concerning reported crimes on campus, including alcohol and drug use, robbery, burglary, drug arrests and sexual assaults. There were marked increases in the numbers of liquor law and alcohol law violations referred for disciplinary action, but offenses such as forcible sex, illegal weapons possession arCHRONICLE GRAPHIC BY LAUREN CARROLL rests and motor vehicle theft have declined from 2010 to 2011.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

THE CHRONICLE

The Board of Trustees formally signed off on Duke’s second major capital campaign.

During its weekend meeting, the Board approved a resolution to raise $3.25 billion by June 30, 2017 through Duke Forward: Partnering for the Future, the University’s largest fundraising effort to date. The campaign began July 2010 in a silent phase that raised more than $1.3 billion, contributing about 40 percent of the total goal. In addition, the Trustees heard an update on the University’s endowment and its investment return, which came in at 1 percent during the most recent fiscal year.

Prior to the approval of

the campaign, feedback from the Trustees and other alumni helped determine the size and scope of the goal, given economic uncertainty around the world, Board Chair Richard Wagoner, Trinity ’75, said.

“We have a huge opportunity to grow our interdisciplinary programs—it was important to have a good base,” Wagoner said.

Wagoner and President Richard Brodhead kicked off the campaign Saturday afternoon in a presentation attended by several hundred donors to the University.

Brodhead noted that the conversations about a major capital campaign began in early 2007.

Trustee David Rubenstein, Board of Trustees vice chair and Trinity ’70, channeled James B. Duke in his remarks during the Founders’ Day convocation Friday.

Pulling his iPad out from under the podium, the noted philanthropist read aloud an “email” from the University’s founder that detailed thoughts on David Rubenstein Duke’s strategic priorities, values and future—a relevant theme given the University’s launch of its capital campaign this weekend. Rubenstein framed these suggestions as “10 Friendly Thoughts” from the founder. “[Duke should] strive to be one of the world’s finest universities and yet in that effort strive to maintain those qualities which make this university so distinctive and so different,” he said. “The world does not needs two Harvards, or two Stanfords or two Princetons—it needs one Duke.”

Rubenstein also highlighted the University’s commitment to teaching students, enabling a strong faculty and promoting high ethical standards and diversity as further marks of excellence and continued progress. He noted the coexistence of world-class academics and athletics as a pillar of Duke’s prominence.

Through founder James B. Duke, Rubenstein touted the importance of communicating goals and teaching students to be responsible as well as humble public citizens.

“Teaching everyone at Duke the value of humility about their abilities and achievements is time well-spent and will pay rich dividends throughout their lives,” he said.

In addition to delivering thoughts on Duke’s direction, Rubenstein emphasized the opportunities a Duke education presents, recalling his own rise

from humble beginnings to good fortune. Rubenstein is the cofounder and managing director of the Carlyle Group—one of the world’s largest private equity firms—and recently appeared on the cover of Forbes magazine with other philanthropy giants such as Oprah Winfrey, Warren Buffett and Bill and Melinda Gates.

“I intend to use my good fortune in many different ways, and one of the things I want to do is to repay my obligation to Duke for having taken a chance on me,” he said.

Rubenstein’s parents, neither of whom graduated high school, could not afford to send him to Duke, so they relied on financial aid from the University. Characterizing himself as a student who was neither a great scholar nor student leader while at Duke, he implored students to persevere to reach their goals.

“With the grace of God and if you continue to work hard, anybody can make something of themselves, and I think my example is illustrative of that,” he said.

The voice of James B. Duke continued to resonate with visitors this weekend as a number of other speakers took note of Rubenstein’s strategy. In his remarks at the Duke Forward launch gala, men’s basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski brought the motif one step further, receiving a “phone call” from the founder in the middle of his remarks.

“Whenever you are giving a speech or doing something a little unconventional, you never know if it will work,” Rubenstein said in an interview. “I thought it might be a good way to communicate certain ideas... ideas many people have—I was just using the voice of James B. Duke to do so.”

Rubenstein closed his remarks with the hope that Duke continues to be a university that emphasizes students’ and faculty’s personal happiness in addition to academic, athletic and innovative excellence. Noting Duke Forward as an opportunity for progress, SEE FOUNDERS ON PAGE 4

Rain did not dampen the spirits of the 10,000 people who attended the annual pride parade Saturday.

The North Carolina Pride Parade, which began more than two decades ago in order to highlight LGBT life in state, kicked off at the entrance to Duke’s East Campus. The parade’s participants began lining up at 12:45 p.m.—15 minutes before the event began—to prepare for the lively festivities that attracted both Duke students and other Durham residents.

Although it was drizzling throughout the parade, event organizers remained unfazed given that last year it began raining midway through the procession, said Paul Cravth, a parade organizer.

In fact, the rain added color to the parade as spectators and marchers alike whipped out rainbow-patterned umbrellas.

Music kept the parade from getting too somber as several decked out men and women played big band tunes on their brass instruments. Behind them, a DJ blasted music from the back of a pickup truck and another car played recent Top 40 hits.

One of the most unique musical acts belonged to the Little Green Pig Theatrical Concern, a local performance group.

“We’re a ‘free Pussy Riot’ float,” explained one of the women, whose face was swathed in a balaclava.

Pussy Riot is a Russian punk band that was recently sentenced to two years in prison for an anti-Putin song. The women, dressed in black balaclavas and single-colored dresses, blared the song in question from the back of their truck and danced as they made their way down the parade line.

They were not the only groups who arrived in costume. Several young men on

Despite rain, around 10,000 people came to Durham Saturday for the 28thannual N.C. Pride parade and festival. The parade ran down Main Street, and the festival took place on the East Campus lawn. rollerblades wore only multicolored Speedos and colorful headdresses, a group walked by in street clothes and brightly colored lucha libre masks, two topless girls wore duct tape X’s over their breasts and a tall man in a bright red wig and polka dot dress twirled his umbrella and danced. The LGBT rainbow was everywhere, whether on flags, shirts, ties or eye shadow.

One transgendered woman from Fayetteville named Olivia wore a rainbow striped strapless floor-length dress covered in rainbow feathers and accented with diamond costume jewelry and a rainbow feather wig.

“Thank God for eBay,” she said.

It was her first time attending the event in a while, but 10 years ago she was in the parade as the LGBT Ms. Fayetteville.

Heavily involved in her com-

munity, she is currently trying to get the first ever LGBT float in the Fayetteville Christmas Parade.

“The trans community is often kept in the background and really needs someone to speak out for them,” she said.

“My parents basically disowned me because they didn’t take the time to understand.”

She hopes that she can change at least one boy’s life with her efforts.

The event brought together Duke students and Durham community groups. Duke’s delegation, one of the largest in attendance, sported “Love=Love” shirts as they whooped and cheered on their two floats. One student even had a rainbow Canadian flag draped over his shoulders.

A group of young women on unicycles wore shirts that SEE PRIDE ON PAGE 4

CAMPAIGN from page 1 move aggressively forward, a campaign like this... it is really a necessity,” Wagoner said. “We do this because we want to, but we also recognize that the University needs additional resources to support these aggressive visions.”

About 44 percent of campaign funds raised will go toward programmatic initiatives, 17 percent to facilities and 7 percent to the Duke Annual Fund.

The campaign is framed by three prevailing principles: enriching student education, furthering Duke’s global presence and maintaining the University’s momentum. About 40 percent of the campaign goal—or about $1.3 billion—will go toward the undergraduate experience overall. The University hopes to raise $435 million for Trinity College of Arts and Sciences, $161.5 million for the Pratt School of Engineering, $250 million for Duke athletics and $1.2 billion for Duke Medicine.

The campaign’s goal for financial aid is well above $200 million, said President Richard Brodhead at a press conference Saturday, noting that the University hopes to surpass the $308 million raised in the Duke Financial Aid Initiative, which ended in 2008. Expanding financial aid is necessary for Duke to maintain its commitment to need-blind admissions for domestic students.

“With the situation in the economy, the amount of resources that the University is devoting to sup-

porting financial aid is growing at a much faster rate than tuition or revenues,” Wagoner added. “We really do need in this campaign to make a significant step forward in the funding of endowment for financial aid... and that is not always the easiest kind of money to raise.”

The campaign is co-chaired by Trustees Anne Bass, Bruce Karsh, Trinity ’77 and David Rubenstein, Trinity ’70 and Board vice chair.

‘Why Duke? Why now?’

With its emphasis on collaboration and multidisciplinary education and experience, Duke Forward is a more holistic campaign than its predecessor, the Campaign for Duke, which concluded in 2003 and raised $2.36 billion.

The Campaign for Duke raised money in specific “buckets,” but Duke Forward aims to raise money in larger collaborative pools that feed into the University’s strategic plan, Brodhead said. There is also less of an emphasis on facilities in Duke Forward.

“The last campaign was about assuring that Duke would enter the top rank of universities,” Brodhead said. “We don’t think that’s the goal this time—the goal this time is to use Duke’s special attributes to help it define new models of education.”

Brodhead noted a survey of school deans in summer 2009 that asked deans to name what would most advance their respective schools. Each response involved collaboration across schools.

The uniqueness of Duke’s collaborative education was a theme

revisited throughout the weekend’s launch events. Saturday’s announcement and lunch, attended by about 700 distinguished donors, was followed by a private Duke Forward launch gala in Cameron Indoor Stadium in the evening.

Donors, Trustees, University leaders, faculty and students were in attendance for the event.

Brodhead delivered the gala’s opening address, recalling Duke’s history and calling upon its most supportive donors.

“Why Duke, why now?” Brodhead said. “Because our distinctive culture... makes Duke uniquely suited to meet some of the future’s most critical needs, needs for critical forms of knowledge and also needs for people who know how to be creative problem solvers in a complicated and interdependent world.”

Bass, Karsh and Rubenstein delivered remarks, as did Duke men’s basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski.

‘A long time to run’ Although there was already support for the campaign, the weekend’s events were successful in energizing the University’s donors and community, Rubenstein said.

“I’ve been involved with a lot of capital campaigns in my life, and I think that this one got off to a stronger start than any other I’ve seen,” Rubenstein said in an interview.

Moving forward, Rubenstein said the campaign steering committee will continue to brainstorm and hold events around the country to stir up conversation and

Now that the schools’ and departments’ goals have been set, the committee can begin to approach particular groups of alumni with corresponding interests.

“Throughout the planning process, the Trustees were interested in making certain that we knew what we were going to do with the money we were going to raise,” he said.

Rubenstein said the main duties of the co-chairs are to contribute gifts and to energize others who may be interested in supporting Duke.

The duration of the campaign means Duke will have to maintain its fundraising momentum.

“Five years is a long time to run for, so we’re kind of moving from a sprint period to more of a mile run

period where we need to keep a steady pace going,” Wagoner said.

Duke is not the only top university to launch a capital campaign in a time of relative economic uncertainty. Harvard University will launch a $6 billion capital campaign in 2013. Yale University concluded a campaign in June 2011 that raised $4 billion.

University leaders are confident in Duke’s donor base, despite the economic climate.

“There is just no overstating the extent to which people who are associated with this University believe in it,” Brodhead said. “The gifts we have brought in so far have been brought in in not very positive economic times, but I think people have been extraordinarily generous with us.”

“It’s more than gay pride, it’s about being a minority inside a minority,” Sen said. “We want to be heard and seen.”

On the lawn to the right of the East Campus entrance, various groups had set up pavilions and tents. Political groups, ranging from the Durham People’s Alliance, known for their “Another Family Against Amendment One” signs, the American Association of Retired Persons, Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties

Union, to delegations for local politicians such as Lee Storrow, Lydia Lavelle and Wendy Jacobs, also attended the event. There were also many churches advertising their inclusiveness, next to people hawking rainbow-patterned merchandise.

mation collection systems that allow us to be more accurate with those numbers.”

Cavanaugh’s role includes overseeing emergency coordination and DUPD. DUPD Chief John Dailey deferred comment to Cavanaugh.

The security report is mandated by the Clery Act, which requires universities to publish and distribute safety reports to students and employees by October 1 of each year. DUPD also released information regarding fire safety, as required by the Higher Education Opportunity Act. The report includes reported incidents in the health system campuses, such as Duke Univer-

sity Hospital, satellite facilities and Duke Forest.

Cavanaugh also noted that the statistical analysis is important, but there are other factors to consider when evaluating the annual figures. He added that overall, Duke is a safe campus, but constant vigilance is needed to make sure the University remains a safe place for students.

“There’s been consistent improvement in providing as safe an environment as possible,” Cavanaugh said. “We’re all in this together and we have to collectively be as aware and proactive as we can to continue to look out for each other and provide a safe environment.”

FOUNDERS from page 2 he implored the audience to give back to Duke because enabling Duke’s interests is acting in the world’s best interests as well.

“There can be no doubt that a stronger, enhanced Duke is something to be desired and valued,” he said. “I know from my own experience that [those who help Duke] will feel better about themselves for having done so. They will and should feel that way because they can rightly take pride in having a role in making the world a somewhat better place— and what more can one want out of life?”

During the convocation, President Richard Brodhead presented a number of awards and hon-

ors to distinguished members of the University community. Dr. Rebecca Kirkland, the great-granddaughter of Washington Duke, received the University Medal, and Trustee Jack Bovender, Health Administration ’69, received the Distinguished Alumni Award.

Kirkland is a former trustee and currently serves on the Duke University Heath System Board of Directors, chairing the board’s Patient Safety and Clinical Quality Committee since 2003. Bovender currently serves as vice chair of the Board and most recently, along with his wife Barbara, pledged a $25 million bequest to support the Fuqua School of Business, Trinity College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Nursing.

death wish.

Indeed, online-only publications are some of the most dynamic and relevant on campus.

Consider Develle Dish. This relatively young but widely read feminist blog is a prime example of how online-only student publications can play an active role in campus culture and debate. Develle Dish’s online form is perfect for quick and interactive blog offerings, which are impossible to deliver in a print serial. Although Develle Dish currently receives Bassett funding, it is ineligible for the permanent funding enjoyed by regular UPB publications. This is the same story for the Blue Devils United blog and other important campus online-only publications. Although it is true that online-only publications, by and large, have fewer

publishing costs, but it is easy to imagine them finding other productive ways of using extra funds—to design an awesome website, for example.

Limiting UPB funding to print publications is especially troubling when one considers where the bulk of UPB funding is allocated. The Chanticleer, Duke’s yearbook, receives more funding than any other UPB publication, with $100,000 allotted in the 2012-2013 school year. Compare the readership and overall impact of an expensive print publication like The Chanticleer compared to an online-only publication like Develle Dish. To evaluate and compare publications, data about readership —virtually nonexistent currently—should be collected across publications and analyzed. If UPB wants

to aid the publications that are doing most for students, it should probably fully extend its reach to online-only publications. Furthermore, just as print publications benefit from UPB’s print-specific skills and resources, online publications could similarly benefit from training in website design.

UPB as an organization can decide what its mission is, but we suggest that that mission fully embrace online-only publications, which, besides being important to the Duke community, also teaches aspiring writers how to navigate the online publishing world after graduation. Both the format of written media and its effects on our reading lives are shifting under our feet, and it is vital that Duke keeps pace as best as possible.

A song of ice and women

M

ost female fans of fantasy and sci-fi will eventually find themselves alienated by the limited options the genre provides for women. Such options include: the sweet, virginal (usually white and blonde) feminine lead awarded to the male lead, the evil seductress who uses her body to get what she wants, the wise old crone who gives enigmatic advice and the warrior princess who is basically a man with shapely breasts.

It has been suggested that it is not realistic to write fantasy worlds where gender roles do not exist. A world filled with dragons and elves, it seems, is more likely than a society where strong women are given respect. danica liu So when I found George R.R. Marwinter is coming tin’s “A Song of Ice and Fire,” televised as HBO’s “Game of Thrones” series, I was immediately pleased by the diverse constellation of female characters. The GoT universe is undoubtedly misogynistic, but women are able to rise to prominence and influence the game, rather than merely being buffeted around by the actions of the men around them.

People often complain that writing female characters is difficult because making women into villains is misogynistic and making them attractive is stereotypical; a sidekick is too subservient and a hero is a male fantasy. It’s clear that these writers do not think women can actually fill any of these roles.

The obvious solution is to include more female characters. Women can be evil, yes, but not necessarily in the jealous, beauty-obsessed manner of Disney villains. Melisandre and Cersei Lannister are clearly both on the wrong side of things, but they aren’t unsympathetic.

As Tyrion Lannister observed of Cersei, “You love your children—it’s your one redeeming quality. That and your cheekbones.” Cersei’s internalized misogyny runs deep—she wishes that she had been born the man and mocks the weakness of the women who mill about her at court. Her power hungry machinations contrast sharply with Sansa Stark, an innocent and idealistic girl doing her best to stay afloat amidst a game she doesn’t understand. Some might criticize Sansa for initially liking the despicable King Joffrey, but feminism does not insist that female characters always be flawless and worldly.

It’s gratifying to see a positive sex role model in the exiled queen, Daenerys Targaryen. The show depicts her marriage to Khal Drogo as initially characterized by rape, but in the book the activities of their wedding night are consensual. She learns from her handmaids the ways of lovemaking (“Are you a slave, Khaleesi? Then don’t make love like a slave.”), and in the books she is not shy about pleasuring herself either.

Arya, the young tomboy, is criticized as a poor feminist character because her willingness to act violently ostensibly makes her a man in woman’s clothing. Like Mattie from “True Grit,” her strength seemingly comes from her masculine behavior and lack of empathy.

There is logic to this argument, but I think Arya is characterized not by masculinity, but by her ability to adapt. Unlike her sister, she is not attached to romantic ideals of fairy tales. She senses that physical ability is power, and she seeks it out.

“Game of Thrones” essentially is a series about power and its sources—title, money, religion and brute strength. The women of Westeros deal in all of these currencies, whether they are subtle and graceful like Margaery Tyrell, or wild and sensual like Ygritte. When characters rise, fall and sometimes die, they are men and women alike, strong and weak, loved and hated. The game goes on ruthlessly, crowning monarchs and making casualties. There is no time to dwell on the limitations and consequences of gender. The object of the game is to survive.

An interviewer asked Joss Whedon why he wrote strong female characters, and he answered, “Because you’re still asking me that question.” In comedy, politics, academia and a variety of other fields, when a woman becomes prominent, she remains a prominent woman. You never hear about male actors or artists being asked, “How does being a man affect your work? How does your work reflect on other men? Are you a good male role model?” Men are still the unmarked, the default. Whenever a woman does something, it is marked indelibly with her femininity, and her success or failure is taken as representative of the rest of her gender.

The important thing is to escape this binary of equating masculinity with strength and courage and femininity with a demure selfeffacing beauty. Women are not either good or evil, weak or strong.

Their deaths do not occur in order to further the development of a male character or give motive for revenge. As Brienne of Tarth told Catelyn Stark, “You have courage. Not battle courage perhaps, but, I don’t know, a woman’s kind of courage.” Hopefully future producers will follow Martin and HBO’s example and continue to create women of strength.

BOARD from page 1 the deans of Duke’s 10 schools prioritized collaboration and interdisciplinary programs as ways to improve the University’s academics. The focus on interdisciplinary programs distinguishes Duke Forward from its only predecessor, the Campaign for Duke, which raised $2.36 billion from 1996 to 2003.

The Board also received an update on the performance of the University’s endowment, which gained 1 percent on its investments in fiscal year 2012, which concluded June 30, a more modest investment return compared to the 24.5 percent jump reported for fiscal year 2011.

The total value of the endowment dipped from $5.7 in 2010-11 fiscal year to $5.6 billion as of June 30, because the low investment return was offset by the amount taken out for use in Duke’s operating budget, Michael Schoenfeld, vice president for public affairs and government relations, wrote in an email Saturday.

The Standard and Poor’s 500 Index rose 5.5 percent during the same period. The endowments at some other major universities, including Harvard University, stayed nearly flat.

“Duke’s academic ratings are generally considerably higher than our relative endowment size,” Wagoner said. “By standing still you move ahead.”

Executive Vice President Tallman Trask could not be reached for comment in time for publication to discuss the impact of the endowment performance on the University budget or capital projects.

In the vein of interdisciplinary advancement, the Board discussed the University’s partnership with Coursera, a company that hosts a platform for massive open online courses created by member colleges and

universities. More than 157,000 people around the world have registered for eight Duke courses listed with Coursera.

The Trustees believe it is important for the University to explore online courses in the early stage and make improvements later on, Wagoner wrote in an email Sunday.

Open online courses are consistent with the University’s mission to offer certain courses to a broader audience.

Wagoner noted that online education is evolving in terms of the types of assessments and certification it can offer students.

“It’s clear that this form of education, at least at the early stage, is effective only with certain kinds of topics and learning experiences,” he said.

The Board also received an update on the progress of Duke Kunshan University. The joint venture recently appointed senior leadership, including Chancellor Liu Jingnan and Executive Vice Chancellor Mary Bullock, but the new campus still awaits establishment approval from the Chinese government.

Dr. Victor Dzau, vice chancellor for health affairs and president and CEO of the Duke University Health System, presented on the first phase of the health system’s enterprise-wide planning project, which he said was enthusiastically received by the Trustees. The project, initiated January 2012, outlines goals for major focus areas—research, medical education and patient care.

The Board did not formally approve the enterprise-wide planning, but an oversight committee composed of Duke health professionals and Trustees endorsed the project, Dzau noted.

“Enterprise-wide planning is a process that takes everybody under the health umbrella to work together as a single team,” he said. “A focus of the program is pulling together the different constituents to

bring organizational and cultural transformation.”

Health care reform has emphasized the need for efficient use of resources, but Duke Medicine needs to strengthen its existing resources, Dzau noted. The capital campaign is aiming to raise $1.2 billion for health related programs, providing key financial resources to facilitate improvements in the areas highlighted by enterprise-wide planning.

In other business: The Board passed resolutions to recognize junior Nick McCrory and senior Abby

Johnston, both members of the varsity diving team, for their bronze and silver medals, respectively, during the 2012 Summer Olympics. Duke diving coach Drew Johansen also received recognition for his coaching of the U.S. Olympic diving team.

The Trustees approved a similar resolution for Duke men’s basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski, who coached the U.S. men’s basketball team to a gold medal finish. Other basketball staff, including associate head coaches Chris Collins and Steve Wojciechowski and video coordinator Kevin Cullen, were recognized for their contributions.

Duke basketball’s Legacy Fund is now fully endowed.

The Legacy Fund, which endows scholarships, salaries and the operational budget for the men’s basketball team, no longer has naming opportunities available, said Mike Cragg, a senior associate director of athletics and director of the Legacy Fund.

tions, the endowment now covers the cost of 13 men’s basketball scholarships, two and a half manager scholarships, the salaries for the head coach, one associate head coach, two assistant head coaches, an internship position and an advising position, Cragg said.

The donations for the head coaching position and the two assistant coaches were the most recent and were made in the last month, Cragg said. The endowment for the head coach position required a $5 million gift and each of the assistant spots required $1.5 million.

The specific donors have yet to be announced because they have not yet decided on names for the gifts. The endowment is still accepting gifts, Cragg added, but there are no longer naming opportunities available.

Former Duke basketball and current NBA player Grant Hill, is currently the chairman of the Fund and has previously donated a $1 million contribution in the name of himself and his wife Tamia Hill.

In his speech, Krzyzewski specifically thanked Stephen and Judy Pagliuca, who gave the final gift to round out the endowment, Cragg said. Their son, Joe Pagliuca, was a walk-on for the men’s basketball team from 2004-2007. Stephen is currently the managing partner of Bain Capital and a coowner of the Boston Celtics.

“We had a dream in 2000—I had a dream of endowing our program, of raising money just as a basketball program to endow all [player] scholarships, the manager’s position, all the assistants and my position,” Krzyzewski said. “This week we closed that, 12 years later. Steve and Judy Pagliuca were closers. To me that’s a big accomplishment.”

Late score sends Virginia past Duke

Blue Devils fall in overtime to Tar Heels

THE CHRONICLE

THE CHRONICLE

Despite outshooting the Cavaliers 19-14, the No. 5 Blue Devils were unable to capitalize on any of those opportunities and dropped a conference road game to No. 3 Virginia 1-0.

It was a scoreless affair for much of the game until Virginia (10-2-1, 3-1-1 in the ACC) broke through on a counterattack in the 88th minute with a DUKE 0 goal from Makenzy Doniak.

1 UVA “We have to keep people in front of us, especially at that stage in the game,” head coach Robbie Church said. “We fought and scratched and competed so hard, but we just needed to make better decisions defensively.”

It was only the second time that the Blue Devils (8-3-1, 2-2-1) have been shutout this season. The normally high-powered offense could not convert on its opportunities to score a much-needed goal. The chances were there, but the finishing was not typical of this year’s Duke team.

Duke had arguably its best chance in the first minute of the game, when junior forward Kim DeCesare ripped a shot that nailed the post.

“We played one of the best teams in the country, so we’re not going to be scoring as much as we have been,” Church said. “We did have our fair share of attacking and had lots of good things happen offensively until the final third of the field. There we struggled getting over the ball and with the placement of our shots. We just couldn’t quite make the right decisions at the right time.”

Junior midfielder Gilda Doria led the team with five shots, with forwards DeCesare and freshman Cassie Pecht each adding three apiece. Senior goalkeeper Tara Campbell registered five saves, including an impressive one in the 27th minute to keep Virginia off the scoreboard.

This was Duke’s second 1-0 ACC road loss to a highly ranked team after it lost in Tallahas-

The Tar Heels (8-1-2, 3-0-1 in the ACC) defeated Duke (3-5-1, 1-2-1) 2-1 in a raindrenched contest Friday night in front of a largely North Carolina-supporting crowd at Koskinen Stadium.

After 90 minutes of highly competitive play with the score tied at one, the game entered overtime with the Blue Devils down two players due to second-half red cards. Head coach John Kerr was also missing after receiving a red card in the previous match.

“There’s lots to gain from this,” Church said. “The place was rocking, it was a great atmosphere, we played well, and we deserved a better result. Unfortunately we haven’t quite made those key plays at key times. We need to recognize how to make plays in tight games.

We just have to be slightly more mentally and physically tough.”

After the loss, the Blue Devils do not have much time to recuperate, as they face yet another difficult ACC road game Thursday against No. 25 Virginia Tech.

“They’re having a fantastic year,” Church said. “We’ve got to recover and prepare well on Tuesday and Wednesday. Last year we beat them twice in tight games so they will be ready for us. We cannot let this linger.”

In the second half, despite consistent pressure from the Tar Heels, Duke was able to push forward and create goal scoring opportunities. The Blue Devils struck first, after a largely lackluster first half, on a scorching shot from 15 yards out by midfielder Riley Wolfe in the 59th minute.

“We took the pressure in,” defender Sebastien Ibeagha said. “We knew that they were going to get possession on the ball.

They’re good at that. Going into it, we knew we were going to have to defend for a large amount of time and then, when we got our chances, come out and counter attack and transition quickly.”

THE CHRONICLE

Duke snaps 12-year losing skid against Wake Forest FOOTBALL from page 1 game at 20, Sean Renfree had been removed from the game with an elbow injury, and Anthony Boone’s quick three-and-out seemed to put all the momentum in Wake Forest head coach Jim Grobe’s corner.

But Monday’s towering punt pinned the Demon Deacons at their own 7-yard line to make life difficult for quarterback Tanner Price and the Wake Forest offense.

On third down from Wake’s 12-yard line, the pocket collapsed around Price, and Duke defensive end Jordan DeWalt-Ondijo got to Price’s arm just before he began to throw. Price lost the ball, and Jonathan Woodruff fell on it, setting up the Blue Devils in the red zone.

On Duke’s second play from scrimmage, Boone faked a handoff and bolted for the right pylon, scoring his first rushing touchdown of the season to earn his team a 7-point advantage.

“He’s very poised. He’s not really like a backup,” Cutcliffe said of Boone. “We started this season with three really experienced quarterbacks, and that pays off in circumstances like this.”

The Blue Devil defensive pressure became even more stifling from that point on. They allowed just seven yards on the next Demon Deacon drive, and then linebacker C.J. France dove under a pass tipped by Walt Canty on the following Wake Forest possession to give Duke excellent field position once again.

Settling into a rhythm on his fourth drive of the day, Boone engineered a 38-yard drive that lasted three minutes and resulted in seven more Duke points and a 34-20 lead. The offensive line opened a massive hole up the middle for Jela Duncan on the touchdown run, allowing the true freshman running back to reach the end zone untouched for his first career score. After racking up 88 yards against Memphis including a 58-yard breakaway, Duncan averaged 5.1 yards per carry on his 11 touches against Wake Forest.

“Jela is just proving every week what we thought about him,” Cutcliffe said. “He is a powerful, fast football player.”

The Demon Deacons converted their next offensive chance into a touchdown of their own, but with just 42 seconds remaining after the extra point, they were forced to then kick an onside kick. Duke recovered and then kneeled the ball to end the game.

The Blue Devil domination in the fourth quarter was hardly prefigured by the first three periods of play, as Duke showed potential but could not build a significant lead. Duke put points on the board on each of its first three possessions, but Wake Forest kept the offense out of the end zone on two of those drives. Two field goals and a touchdown gave Blue Devils a 13-7 lead, but the Demon Deacons quickly pulled back within three.

A six-minute drive to open the second half looked as though it might put a dagger in Wake Forest’s hopes. The Demon Deacons got a Renfree completion of nearly 50 yards called back due to a holding penalty, but the Duke signal caller calmly found Desmond Scott for 23 yards on 3rd-and-19.

Wake Forest got another break when Duncan’s helmet came off on a play that would have been an easy Blue Devil touchdown. The referees correctly called a facemask penalty on the defender who removed Duncan’s helmet, but the play is automatically dead when the ball carrier’s helmet comes off. Two plays later, though, Brandon Connette ran the final four yards to the end zone for his second rushing touchdown of the day and a 20-10 lead.

Wake Forest did not go away, taking advantage of a Renfree interception deep in Duke territory to get back to a 20-20 tie entering the fourth quarter.

But then the Duke punter, of all people, made the crucial play of the game, backing the Demon Deacons up into their own end and setting the Blue Devils up to run away with the game in the final period. Cutcliffe credited the team’s conditioning and effort rather than strategic changes for helping Duke be up to the challenge late in the game.

“I don’t know if I’ve seen young men play harder than they continue to play,” Cutcliffe said. “It was impressive.”

The victory moves Duke’s record to 4-1, making this the first season since 1994 that a Blue Devil team has gotten off to such a good start. It was also in 1994 that Duke last appeared in a bowl game, so Monday’s crucial kick could turn out to be very important indeed.

Injuries pile up Around alongside the wins the ACC

WF 27

As his Duke teammates celebrated on the field after clinching a 34-27 win over Wake Forest, Sean Renfree jogged off the field and into the locker room without so much as a backwards glance.

He showed Chris no signs of the right elbow injury that cost him the chance to complete his best performance of the season.

But he didn’t, at least publicly, look like he was in any mood to celebrate his first win over the Demon Deacons and the team’s first against them since 1999.

Renfree’s injury is just one of the dozens that have accompanied the Blue Devils’ 4-1 start, though his is minor, at least.

Eleven players were listed as unavailable against Wake Forest, and almost that many more were helped off the field Saturday afternoon. Jamal Wallace went down on the game’s opening play. David Helton followed two snaps later. Lee Butler and Brandon Braxton also left the game hurt and did not return.

Quickly, true freshman Dwayne Norman was playing a key role at a safety position he hadn’t played before last week.

“I’m kind of hardened to it,” head coach David Cutcliffe said. “I try not to overreact to injury. Just a trick I learned from an old coach—look out there and see how many you’ve got healthy, don’t look at the ones you got hurt.”

As much as he may try, though, Cutcliffe can’t help but notice only three of his summer practice defensive starters were on the field in crunch time Saturday. But this time, it didn’t matter. This time, it didn’t matter that Cutcliffe has had to rely more on freshmen and backups than any other time in his Duke tenure, because Saturday they answered the call.

This time, Duke’s defense improved as more starters were being treated on the sideline.

That’s no slight to the injured

players, especially those in the secondary, who have been the source of the Blue Devils’ largest improvement compared to last year. The Demon Deacons had no answer for the Duke pass rush in the second half, leading to the play that all but ended Wake Forest’s win streak in the rivalry.

Tanner Price lined up with an empty backfield on his team’s own 7-yard line, trying to lead the Demon Deacons to their first lead of the game.

Jordan Dewalt-Ondijo—listed as Duke’s third-string right defensive end in the preseason media guide—pushed his way around to Price’s blindside and managed to send the ball skipping across the turf for Jonathan Woodruff—who once sat fifth on the right defensive end depth chart—to fall on it.

Two plays later, backup quarterback Anthony Boone made it to the right pylon for a fouryard touchdown run, and true freshman running back Jela Duncan scored two drives later to put the game out of reach.

But can Duke maintain this level of play with so many backups on the field? With more snaps, more opportunities arise for rookies to play like, well, rookies, and the Blue Devils are still two wins shy of their bowl goal, after all. Plus, with the exception of an ugly trip to Palo Alto, Duke has had the luxury of easing its way into the season. Virginia may not be a step up from Wake Forest, but Florida State, Clemson and Virginia Tech certainly are.

It’d be yet another gut-punch for the Blue Devil football program to miss out on a postseason appearance by losing a war of attrition. This team has shown it is talented enough to play in a bowl game at full strength, but reaching that goal with its starters on the sidelines is an awfully tall order, even after Saturday’s excellent performance.

Middle Tennessee 49, Georgia Tech 28 In one of the nation’s biggest upsets of the week, Middle Tennessee running back Benny Cunningham ran for 217 yards and five touchdowns, leading his Sun Belt squad past the Yellow Jackets. Georgia Tech turned the ball over four times in its third defeat of the year.

Miami 44, N.C. State 37 Miami quarterback Stephen Morris threw for an ACC-record 566 yards to go along with five touchdowns, including the game winning 62-yard strike to Phillip Dorsett with 19 seconds to go. N.C. State’s Mike Glennon threw for an also impressive 440 yards and four touchdowns in defeat.

Clemson 45, Boston College 31 This one was tight for until No. 17 Clemson ran away with the game late in the third quarter. Tajh Boyd racked up 367 yards through the air and accounted for four total touchdowns for the Tigers. Of those yards, 197 went to DeAndre Hopkins, including a 35-yard touchdown to cap off the scoring.

North Carolina 66, Idaho 0 This one was over early as the Tar Heels went up 28-0 by the end of the first quarter. Bryn Renner accounted for 231 passing yards and three touchdowns, all in the first half before being pulled in the rout.

Louisiana Tech 44, Virginia 38 For the second straight week, Louisiana Tech won a road game against a BCS conference team. The Bulldogs outscored the Cavaliers 21-0 in the third quarter to take a 41-24 lead. Virginia’s comeback efforts fell just short, and they fell to 2-3 on the year.

They come to Durham next week to take on the 4-1 Blue Devils.

Cincinnati 27, Virginia Tech 24 Virginia Tech lost its second game of the year in heartbreaking fashion, as Cincinnati’s Munchies Legaux connecting with Damon Julian for a 39-yard touchdown with only 13 seconds remaining on the clock.

Legaux was the star of the game, throwing for 376 yards to go along with three touchdowns.

Florida State 30, South Florida 17 The ACC favorite kept its undefeated season and national championship hopes alive with a solid road victory.

FIELD HOCKEY

With a full roster, Duke splits weekend contests

by Danielle Lazarus THE CHRONICLE

The girls are back in town.

With its full roster intact for the first time since Sep. 8, No. 21 Duke (5-7, 0-3 in the ACC) split its weekend at Jack Katz Stadium. The Blue 2 Devils fell to BosBC DUKE 1 ton College in a 2-1 game filled with rain delays Friday, before 2 KENT rebounding against DUKE 11 Kent State in an offensive 11-2 romp Sunday. Duke had been missing six players, who were playing in Mexico at the Junior Pan-American Games.

Boston College (7-5, 1-2) got on the board first with a goal from sophomore Hannah Nedeau in the 14th minute. As the first half drew to a close, the Blue Devils tied the game with junior Brenna Rescigno’s goal off a penalty corner, assisted by inserter Chelsea Amsley and stopper Paula Heimbach.

Duke’s momentum, however, was stunted by an hour rain delay. Following the delay, only one minute into the second half, freshman Eagle AshLeigh Sebia scored off a penalty corner. The game was delayed again with 28 minutes left in the first half.

Although the Blue Devils got back-to-back penalty corners immediately upon resumption, they were unable to convert. Boston College never relinquished its lead, even though Duke outshot the Eagles 15-8 and outnumbered them 9-4 in penalty corners.

“We’ve been through it before, and we’re home, and I just think Boston College came out with more energy and a greater will to win the game.”

The Blue Devils, however, bounced back against Kent State (5-8). Duke dominated the Golden Flashes offensively and defensively from the start, going into halftime with a 5-0 lead. The first half was highlighted by the first goals of the season from both sophomore Abby Beltrani and freshman Aileen Johnson.

“We got right at it at practice Saturday [after the Boston College loss], and I think the team definitely took ownership of their distraction,” Bustin said. “They came out and really focused on the hockey and really focused on getting the job done today.”

Duke never gave up its lead, and the team tacked on six more goals in the second half, including two from junior Emmie Le Marchand and sophomore Jessica Buttinger’s first goal since returning from the Pan-American games. The game was particularly special for redshirt junior Devon Gagliardi, who scored three goals for her first career hat trick.

“It’s exciting,” Gagliardi said. “It’s definitely a team effort, though. I give all the credit to my teammates.”

In the end, the Blue Devils outshot the Golden Flashes 30-15 with goals from eight different players.

“We’re really fortunate today that we were able to put it all together for 70 minutes,” Bustin said. “This is the team we are, and this is the team that we want to be. It takes a little time to get everyone’s rhythm on the same page, and I think we’re working towards that. We’re excited about what’s coming down the road.”

“We are young and the less experienced players are still figuring out what ACC play

After a two-week break to rest and recover from the N.C. Central Dual meet that started in Wallace Wade Stadium, the women returned to the starting line to take on several nationally-ranked teams in Louisville, Ky. The Greater Louisville Classic, where the women finished ninth, was a chance for Duke to try to earn some points by beating one of the several ranked teams present. The NCAA championship meet will also be hosted in Louisville, so in addition to being an opportunity to gain points, the Classic provided a chance for the squad to get a sense of what racing there in the future might be like. According to senior frontrunner Juliet Bottorff, a good performance at this past weekend’s meet would translate into a less stressful Regional meet toward the end of the season. “[Getting points] was a huge reason for going there,” Bottorff said. “We don’t want to have the pressure of having to get top two at Regionals, because the region is pretty strong. The main point of this race for all of us was a chance to show what we could do in a large setting, to show the rest of the world.”

Bottorff was certainly able to do that, as she crossed the finish line in fifth with a personal best of 16:58.94 in the 5K. Although Bottorff—an NCAA Outdoor champion in the 10K—and senior Madeline Morgan—who came in second for the Blue Devils with a time of 17:29.05—are

both accustomed to competing at highlevel meets such as the Classic, several of the runners who raced this past Saturday are not.

Graduate student Megan Deakins ran her first cross country race this past weekend, debuting with a 46th-place finish in 17:34.92. Jesse Rubin, a junior who had not previously traveled to far-away meets with the team, was yet another Blue Devil who was new to the feeling of racing against such a strong field. Rubin followed her classmate Gabby Levac, who set a personal record time of 17:48.07, across the line with a time of 18:03.21. Rubin’s finish closed out the top five spots for the Blue Devils.

The men did not join the women in Louisville, but instead traveled to Cary, N.C., where they took first in the Great American Cross Country Festival.

Although the meet was a step down in terms of competition compared to the Panorama Farms Invitational that the top 11 runners had traveled to the week before, there was some extra motivation for the Blue Devils to run their hardest. The Duke team will only be taking its top 10 runners to the Pre-Nationals meet that will take place in two weeks, and because injuries forced several runners out of the previous meet, the last traveling spot was open to the winner of this meet. The chance to travel to Louisville to compete in the Pre-National meet is especially important in light of the fact that the NCAA Championship meet SEE XC ON PAGE 8

FOOTBALL

Duke in wait-and-see mode with its injuries

by Daniel Carp THE CHRONICLE

SIMPLY THE BEST!

With a 34-27 victory against Wake Forest Saturday, Duke’s 4-1 start is the team’s best since its last bowl appearance in 1994.

But the Blue Devils’ first win against the Demon Deacons in 13 years came at a considerable cost, with a slew of new injuries posing daunting question marks for next week’s matchup with Virginia.

Duke’s primary concern will be the health of starting quarterback Sean Renfree, who did not play in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s game after injuring his right elbow. Anthony Boone replaced Renfree at quarterback and led the Blue Devils to their final 14 points and the victory. Renfree had an MRI on his right arm Sunday that did not reveal anything catastrophic, though head coach David Cutcliffe has indicated the team will proceed with extreme caution in practice this week. Renfree’s status for next weekend’s contest against Virginia remains uncertain.

“There’s really nothing conclusive. He’s had the MRI and I don’t think there’s anything significant,” Cutcliffe said. “We’re just going to be day to day. We don’t know. A lot of it is going to be how he feels. We’ll see.”

Clinging to a lead late in the game, the Blue Devils’ resilience was tested on the defensive side of the football. Duke’s defense, which had been decimated by injuries all afternoon, lost four defensive starters to injury. A large portion of the second-team defense found itself in key spots when linebacker David Helton, defensive tackle Jamal Wallace, cornerback Lee Butler and safety Brandon Braxton became the Blue Devils’

latest injury casualties. C.J. France, Tony Foster and Dwayne Norman all stepped up for injured starters in the fourth quarter.

Cutcliffe was reluctant to divulge any information on the four starters’ injury statuses, citing that Duke will participate in limited walk-throughs and film study Sunday night before resuming practice Tuesday.

“It’s too early on any of that. They’ve just gotten treatments,” Cutcliffe said. “As you know we don’t have an open date for quite some time, and our entire team is pretty physically beat up.”

The Blue Devils suffered a more permanent loss to their defensive unit this week when Cutcliffe announced in his Sunday teleconference that safety August Campbell has left the team for personal reasons. Campbell will remain enrolled as a student at Duke.

“He is in school but will not play football for personal reasons. We will just leave that at that,” Cutcliffe said.

Campbell did not practice last week and did not travel with the team to this week’s victory against Wake Forest. After battling injuries in the season’s early-going, Campbell suited up in two games for the Blue Devils, recording six tackles, including one for a loss, and recovering a fumble.

“The rest of the guys battled. They did great,” Kerr said.

“It’s really difficult over a period of time to defend two men down. We made some silly mistakes and paid the penalty.”

With only nine men on the pitch, the Blue Devil back line was stretched to defend the Tar Heels’ probing attack.

After multiple opportunities, North Carolina netted its first goal with three minutes remaining to tie the game.

Forward Cameron Brown struck a bouncing ball from 20 yards out, which Belshaw was unable to handle properly.

Going into the overtime period, the Blue Devils were forced to continue their defensive approach despite the need to score for the victory. The Tar Heels’ two-man advantage proved too much for the Blue Devils’ back line to handle in the end.

“We can’t feel sorry for ourselves,” Ibeagha said. “We’ve got to keep our head up, keep going. We played well against them.

We really did. You can kind of say that they got lucky, but at the same time we kind of killed ourselves with red cards.”

The first half of play began sloppily, but North Carolina took control of ball possession and the tempo of the game, testing Duke’s back line for goal-scoring opportunities. The Blue Devils held strong under the pressure, with midfielder Sean Davis helping his team possess the ball for long stretches of time.

“Sean Davis was immense tonight and he took a lot of pressure off us,” Kerr said. “He carried the ball forward and kept possession in our favor as we entered into the opponent’s half.”

Teammate Brian Schoepfer, a sophomore, came in less than 18 seconds later with a time of 25:14.5 and senior Joseph Elsakr took third for the team in 25:21.0.

Junior Christian Britto took fourth for the Blue Devils in 25:22.7 in his season debut and was followed soon after by freshman Daniel Moore.

Heel pressure for the majority of the game. Belshaw, who was recognized as the ACC Player of the Week for his consistency in the net, recorded five saves and allowed two goals in the final five minutes of play.

“The back line did a great job, and they did a great job all season long,” Kerr said. “It’s a difficult game to accept when you let that team score two goals on you because [we] defended wonderfully the whole game. The whole

high-school portion of the meet.

“The guys ran very well,” head coach Norm Ogilvie said. “We had a great turnout, with not only our varsity cross country guys but also our half-milers and a lot of support from out here around Duke. The guys responded really well.”

Their support did not just come from the sidelines, however. Graduate Andrew Brodeur, Duke’s former frontrunner, now an assistant coach for the team, raced in front of the Blue Devil pack encouraging them the entire way. Broduer ran unattached and crossed the finish line in first. Despite the fact that he technically finished in second place, Fairleigh was more than happy to be running behind his old teammate.

“I was going to go out there and be the greatest American,” Fairleigh said, “but I SARAH ELSAKR/THE CHRONICLE guess I can settle for being the second greatest American.”

Even though an upset was not in the cards for the Blue Devils, the team’s focus has shifted to bringing the same level of intensity and competition to upcoming conference matches.

down in the Duke record books as the second-highest all-time and most in a four-set match. After missing last weekend’s games out with an injury, freshman standout Emily Sklar recorded 10 kills and 23 digs in her fifth double-double of the season. Sophomore Jeme Obeime and Christiana Gray recorded 11 and 10 kills, respectively.

Miami (12-3, 4-1) was able to outlast McCurdy’s outstanding play with three players totaling 10 or more kills on the night. Hurricane redshirt sophomore middle blocker Emani Sims registered a match-high 18 kills. Teammate outside hitter, Taylor Hollins, added a double-double for Miami recording 10 kills and 14 digs.

After Friday’s matchup in Miami, the Blue Devils headed north to Tallahassee to take on the Seminoles (12-2, 4-1), the highest-ranked ACC team this season.

Florida State committed 10 fewer errors than the Blue Devils and recorded four more kills. Duke, however, was able to keep the Seminoles to a hitting percentage of just .088 in the second set, resulting in a win for the Blue Devils. In yet another close four-setter (20-25, 25-22, 20-25, 16-25), Christiana Gray again produced at the net, amassing a

game-high 13 kills. Jeme Obeime added 11 on the afternoon.

Junior middle blocker Ashley Neff, who recorded 10 kills in the match, led Florida State. The Kennesaw, Ga. native leads the ACC in blocking, averaging 1.57 per set.

Nagel praised the veteran play of the team’s upperclassmen on the weekend against two of the ACC’s top teams.

“What we get from the upperclassmen is the understanding of how difficult and competitive the ACC is and what it takes to be able to play your best,” Nagel said.

“We know that there are going to be some bumps along the way because [the freshmen] are just being in this situation for the first time and beginning to understand the significance of it all and what they have to do in order to be successful.”

Duke joins Wake Forest and Virginia as the only winless ACC teams. Nagel is confident, however, that the Blue Devils will get to where they want to be and looks forward to the next time the teams meet later this season.

“We’re looking forward to [playing both teams again]. We’re learning a whole lot right now and going to continue learning,” Nagel said. “The team is really committed to get better as a team. I think we have a lot of room to grow and you’re going to see a big difference by the time we play those teams again.”
