Administrators, including President Richard Brodhead and School of Nursing Dean Catherine Gillis (third and fourth from left, respectively) broke ground on the Nursing School’s 45,000 sq-ft. expansion Thursday afternoon.

The Duke University School of Nursing officially announced its 45,000 sq.-ft. addition to the Christine Siegler Pearson Building in a groundbreaking ceremony Thursday.

The new $20.2 million space arises out of a desire to better address the needs of an expanding faculty and student body.

Duke ranks among top ‘college pirates’

by Raisa Chowdhury THE CHRONICLE

Eleven years after the unraveling of peer-to-peer music downloading service Napster, Duke is a nationally ranked host to online piracy, according to a recent report.

The report, titled “College Pirates,” placed Duke at the 48th spot in its list of the top 50 American universities in P2P network usage. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology topped the list with 2,315 hits on P2P program BitTorrent, fol-

classrooms, simulation labs and an audio and video recording studio. Construction is expected to be completed by February 2014.

MDI Holdings Inc. owes the Duke University Health System more than $8 million but has no money to honor that debt.

MDI, a Florida-based company, contracts health care for small businesses and government agencies but has recently suffered financial issues and gone into receivership, leaving the assets, by court order, in the custody of a consulting company. The order came after Wells Fargo filed a $30 million lawsuit.

Because the company owes Wells Fargo a considerably larger sum of money than it owes DUHS, Duke has not received repayment for the approximate $8.3 million debt, Conor Brockett, associate general counsel with the North Carolina Medical Society, told The Raleigh News and Observer.

DUHS doctors were subcontracted through MDI to administer health care for some of the 5,000 inmates at Butner Federal Correctional Complex, a prison 45 minutes northeast of Durham that houses white-collar criminals including Bernie Madoff. These doctors provided treatment to inmates

at Durham Regional Hospital and the Duke Ambulatory Surgical Center.

MDI’s multimillion dollar debt to DUHS was one reason Wells Fargo sued the contracting company to take control from CEO Richard Willich. The bank feared that the Butner prison would decide not to renew its contract with MDI, which accounted for 35 percent of MDI’s income, according to Wells Fargo’s complaint.

Wells Fargo lent MDI $37.5 million over a number of years, and won $30 million from MDI in the lawsuit, forcing the company into receivership. MDI does not have sufficient funds to recoup the $30 million to Wells Fargo, so the bank will be awarded any money MDI still has, Brockett said.

Because all of MDI’s remaining funds will be funneled to Wells Fargo, Duke and any other creditors will not receive any money from MDI, as they are unsecured creditors, he added.

Oct. 22 — The two rivals faced off for the last time before Election Day in the third and final presidential debate, which centered on foreign policy.

Oct. 25 — “As we saw again this week, I don’t think any politician in Washington... should be making health care decisions for women. Women can make those decisions themselves,” Obama said.

Women’s issues in the 2012 Election

Touted as the candidate for women, President Barack Obama has redoubled his efforts in the last two weeks before Election Day. In the Illinois State Senate, Obama supported the Illinois Equal Pay Act, which protected 330,000 more women from pay discrimination. In the U.S. Senate, he was part of a bipartisan push for a bill that Barack Obama provides women more time to file wage-discrimination lawsuits—the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. “Romney doesn’t get it. But President Obama does and knows that when women make less than men for the same work, it threatens the economic security of entire families,” Ledbetter said.

Obama also supports the Paycheck Fairness Act, which would make it easier for women to prove wage discrimination.

On the issue of abortion, Obama is a pro-choice advocate who opposes efforts to restrict abortion on the state level, and has said he would oppose any constitutional amendment attempting to overturn Roe v. Wade. He also supports funding for the Violence Against Women Act and coverage for contraception.

Obama’s health care law requires insurance companies to cover contraception, domestic violence screening, mammograms and breast-feeding supplies free of charge.

But Obama’s popularity among women voters is on the decline, according to a recent ABC News/ Washington Post poll last week. The recent poll marked him at 46-50 percent favorable-unfavorable.

In April, 57 percent of women favored Obama and only 39 percent deemed him unfavorable.

With “binders full of women,” Mitt Romney is trying to paint himself as a candidate for women as the clock winds down toward Election Day. A recent AP-Gfk poll suggests that his efforts to take a more moderate stance on issues like abortion are paying off.

Having trailed Obama by 16 points for the last month, the poll shows women favoring Mitt Romney the two candidates equally at 47-47.

On the matter of the economy, women now favor Romney over Obama by 49-45—a significant jump from last month when they favored Obama 56-40.

“I’m hearing from so many women that may not have considered voting for a Republican before, but said, ‘It’s time for the grown-up to come, the man that’s going to take this seriously, that’s going to take the future of our children very, very seriously,’” his wife Ann Romney said in August.

But on social issues, many women remain concerned by Romney’s staunch stance against abortion.

These sentiments are reflected in the polls, where 55 percent of likely women voters think Obama would make the right decisions on women’s issues. Romney received only a 41 percent vote of confidence.

“Americans have a moral duty to uphold the sanctity of life,” his official campaign website says. “The right next step is for the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v.

Wade.”

Romney is opposed to contraception, and has said he would let individual states decide whether or not to provide it. He also said that one of priorities as president will be to remove federal funding for Planned Parenthood.

DUSON from page 1 be overshadowed by more established and socially prestigious academic disciplines—not so at Duke,” DUSON Dean Catherine Gilliss said. “Nursing is emerging on this campus as a leader in producing knowledge that serves society.”

At the ceremony, administrators noted that DUSON has had a long line of recent successes to match the excitement surrounding the new building.

President Richard Brodhead commended DUSON for its continual faculty and student expansion. When he arrived at Duke in 2004, DUSON had 40 faculty members and 400 students. Since then, those numbers have increased to 70 and 800, respectively.

He also acknowledged DUSON’s jump in the U.S. News and World Report Ranking—the school rose from 15th place in 2007 to seventh place this year.

“If I were one of the six schools ahead of you, I would just get out of the way,” Brodhead said.

DUSON has also received nearly $4.3 million in funds from the National Institutes of Health, ranking it 10th among nursing schools in the past year, based on the amount of NIH-funded research.

The space is reflective of the school’s “upward trajectory” over the past couple of decades, Gilliss said. Until very recently, DUSON did not have a space the school could call its own and moved lo-

cations on a regular basis.

The first DUSON location was the Baker House, established in 1932, but the school moved to the Hanes House approximately 20 years later. Gilliss said DUSON’s time in the Hanes House was an awkward period in which students both lived and attended class in the same building.

“The upper floors of Hanes House were our dormitory, and we went to class on the first floor—where we also picked up our mail, visited the library and picked up our starched aprons,” she said.

From 1972 until 2006, DUSON was primarily located in the Elizabeth C. Clip Building—a single story, 9,000 sq.ft. space. Most of the DUSON staff were strewn across Durham due to the limited space, Gilliss said.

In 2006, however, DUSON moved into its current location—the Christine Siegler Pearson Building, a 58,000 sq.-ft. facility.

Clinical nurse educator Donna Biederman noted that the groundbreaking ceremony for the additional 45,000 square-feet of space signified how DUSON is still growing.

“When I first came here, I thought this building was brand new,” she said.

“To find out this building is six years old and they’re doing another groundbreaking—that’s pretty amazing. I didn’t realize when I came here that the school was growing so rapidly.”

LEMURS from page 1 population of lemurs outside of Madagascar.

Currently, a van drives students to a primate field biology class at the center on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Although other students are allowed to use this van, service is limited to those class times, Leslie Digby, director of undergraduate studies in evolutionary anthropology, wrote in an email Wednesday.

“The Duke Lemur Center is a wonderful, important facility that many students want to see but can’t,” Bass, who works at the center, said. “I want to work with the University to provide free transportation.”

Bass’ petition includes suggestions like extending the H-5 bus or the Robertson bus routes upon request, either by calling ahead or requesting the stop upon boarding the bus.

Both buses come very close to the center, Bass said.

On Monday mornings at about 7:30 a.m., Bass bikes to the center where she trains lemurs and observes the behavior of aye-ayes, of which there has been little previous research.

On Wednesdays, she gets a ride from another student who has a car.

Digby, who teaches at the center, discourages students from biking there. In the past, students have arrived at the center shaking from nerves after narrowly avoiding a car, Digby said. The route includes a long stretch of

Gregory Dye, operations manager of the Lemur Center, said this transportation would come at a good time, noting that Bass’ effort marks the first time a student has requested Duke transportation to the center.

Dye added that there have been many additional opportunities for students to volunteer and intern at the center. Twenty freshman were interested in volunteering at the Center this year, but many were unable to do so because they lacked transportation, Dye said.

Sam Veraldi, director of parking and transportation services, has yet to receive the petition. He said the needs of other students will be researched to see if Bass’ proposal is a good business decision given the transportation department’s limited resources and union requirements. He noted that in the past, there was a bus to the center, but it was long before he assumed his position two years ago.

Bass currently has more than 200 signatures on her own copy of the petition, and additional signatures—she said she does not know how many—on the four other petitions she gave out.

Dye said he is supportive of Bass’ efforts, noting that he wants the center to gain prominence on campus.

“Ultimately, the transportation provided would be a huge win for the University as a whole,” he said.

Avery added that Duke’s outstanding balance with MDI has been subject to arbitration outside of the courts, but she said the results are confidential.

In its case against MDI, Wells Fargo attrib-

uted the company’s inability to pay its debt to some questionable financial decisions. The bank said Willich borrowed more than $5 million from MDI to purchase a cattle ranch and the rights to a biography and screenplay about his life. In addition to this loan, Wells Fargo cited a $1.1 million wire transfer payment to an attorney shortly after MDI fired a financial restructuring officer and lease payments for an $110,000 electric sports car.

Season’s toughest test awaits Duke Parker to officially visit Duke

by Andy Margius THE CHRONICLE

Now that Duke has secured its first bowl berth since 1994, Saturday marks another potential turning point in the season.

The Blue Devils have the chance to prove they can hang Duke with the best of the vs. best Saturday as they No. 11 travel to Tallahasee to FSU take on No. 11 Florida State. Beating archrival SUNDAY, 7 p.m.

Doak Campbell Stadium North Carolina established Duke football as a legitimate program on the rise. But Saturday’s game against Florida State will answer— can Duke compete with an elite opponent on the road?

“Most good competitors, if not all, want to measure themselves against the best,” head coach David Cutcliffe said. “This is what you compete for.”

The most impressive statistic from Saturday’s win against the Tar Heels was on the ground, where the Blue Devils accumulated 234 yards, the most in the Cutcliffe era.

The Seminoles (7-1, 4-1 in ACC), however, come into this weekend sporting the secondbest run defense in the country, yielding just 69.1 yards per game. With three seniors on the defensive line, including Cornellius Carradine who is second in the ACC among linemen with 48 tackles on the year, the running game that took off against North Carolina last

Defensively, the Blue Devils (6-2, 3-1) will look to continue where they left off after the third quarter of Saturday’s game against the Tar Heels. Although they were able to hold Bryn Renner to 36 yards passing through the first 45 minutes—in addition to containing Giovani Bernard—the fourth quarter saw a collapse that almost cost the team the game.

Chicago has been kind to Duke basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski. Having grown up in the Windy City, Krzyzewski has recruited from his old stomping grounds better than perhaps any other area in the country by securing commitments from Chicago natives John Scheyer, Cory Maggette, Sean Dockery, Brady Shaun Livingston and current assistant head coach Chris Collins throughout the years.

This weekend, Krzyzewski will attempt to add to that illustrious group as he hosts arguably the best high school basketball player to ever come out of Chicago for an official visit— Jabari Parker.

Until Thursday, Parker had been the No. 1 player in the class of 2013 according to ESPN, but small forward Andrew Wiggins—previously the No. 1 player in the class of 2014—reclassified to 2013 and has surpassed Parker as the No. 1 overall player in the class.

For Duke quarterback Sean Renfree and the passing attack, Saturday’s biggest test will not be the ability for receivers to get open, but rather the ability to get the ball out. The Seminole defensive line’s 21 sacks on the year are second best in the ACC. If the Blue Devils are to win, they not only need to create holes for running backs Juwan Thompson, Josh Snead and Jela Duncan, but also protect Renfree.

They have gone through military training.

They have scrimmaged each other. But the Blue Devils are hungry for real competition— the last time they saw the court, the secondseeded Blue Devils fell in their first game of the NCAA Tournament 15th-seeded Lehigh.

The Blue Devils will have their first chance to take out those frustrations 2 p.m. Saturday at Cameron InWW door Stadium when vs. they host Division Duke II-opponent Western Washington for an exhibition game.

Saturday, 2 p.m.

Cameron Indoor Stadium “We’re ready to play someone else,” associate head coach Steve Wojciechowski said.

“We’re tired of beating up on each other.”

Two players have taken the brunt of those beatings in the preseason, with Marshall Plumlee and Seth Curry sidelined for Saturday’s action. Plumlee is still out with a stress fracture in his left foot for at least another month.

Curry, who has a lower leg injury, is being kept out for precautionary reasons.

“If there’s a time to be conservative it’s early in the season,” Wojciechowski said. “Seth, if we really pushed it, could play tomorrow, but you have to weigh if that’s the best thing from the big picture perspective. In our judgement it’s not the right thing for the team.”

Curry’s absence from the starting lineup will open door for others to make an impression. Freshman guard Rasheed Sulaimon is expected to take his spot in the starting five.

Redshirt freshman Alex Murphy will also likely make his first career start Saturday, while the two injuries could also mean more minutes for the team’s other first year, Amile Jefferson.

“It gives us the opportunity to throw these younger guys in the fire a little bit,” Wojciechowski said. “Hopefully they grow from the experience.

Sophomore guard Quinn Cook will get the first look at point guard while senior forwards Ryan Kelly and Mason Plumlee will lead the team’s frontcourt.

Although the parent’s weekend match is typically an opportunity for the team to get its first live action of the new season without much pressure, the Vikings are the reigning Division II champions and are coming off an impressive showing against Washington.

Although they lost 88-78 to the Huskies, they gave a serious scare to their in-state rival, trailing by just two with less than five minutes to play. Center Chris Mitchell and guard John Allen led Western Washington with 17 points each.

“This gives us a more reaslitic opportunity to look at guys when they’re fresh, what our rotation would look like—look at different combinations, go through the experience of scouting a very good opponent and paying attention to a game plan,” Wojciechowski said.

Action begins with annual scrimmage

ACC Tournament begins at Wake Forest

by Nick Martin THE CHRONICLE

It might not have the fanfare of the men’s basketball team’s Countdown to Craziness, but the Blue Devils, led by head coach Joanne P. McCallie, will hold their annual Blue-White scrimmage Sunday at Cameron Indoor Stadium at 1 p.m.

Duke enters the scrimmage as the preseason pick to win the ACC, with sophomore Elizabeth Williams tied with two other players for ACC preseason player of the year. The Blue Devils will look to improve on last year’s campaign, in which they reached Elite Eight for the third consecutive season before losing to Stanford.

“We pursue all championships. The regular season, the conference and also the NCAA championship,” McCallie said.

“We want to pursue all those championships as hard and fast and aggressive as we can.”

Unlike most college teams, the Blue Devils were not forced to play against themselves all summer. Duke had the chance to take senior center Allison Vernerey home to France and play against several French basketball teams.

“Our team was truly blessed to be able to go on this trip,” junior guard Tricia Liston said. “It brought us closer.”

As Duke looks forwards to the Blue-White game and the upcoming season, the Blue Devils have a lot to be positive about, especially as a team returning four starters.

Liston, the team’s 3-point specialist, returns to action alongside junior guard Chelsea Gray,

junior forward Haley Peters and Williams. Gray and Williams were both preseason All-ACC selections. Vernerey is the lone senior returning to the team and will be a strong force off the bench, playing in all 33 games last season.

“I really like our veterans. They’ve been around the block,” McCallie said. “They’ve been in many different situations.”

Duke’s team is not all upperclassmen. The Blue Devils boast three impressive freshman in guards Alexis Jones and Sierra Moore along with forward Katie Heckman. Heckman, however, is out for the season with an ACL injury, leaving Duke with only three forwards listed on their roster. Jones is the most highly touted of the crew as the No. 3 player in the 2012 recruiting class, according to ESPN. “Sierra and Lex both bring a lot to the table defensively. Offensively they have talents as well,” McCallie said.

If Moore and Jones needed proof that college experience and age do not affect success, they need not look any further than Williams, who was named National Freshman of the Year after amassing 116 blocks— the ACC record—and averaging 14.0 points per game last season.

The Blue Devils will look for Williams to continue to dominate the paint this season as they work toward their third-straight ACC regular season title.

Looking past Sunday’s scrimmage, Duke will host Shaw and Queens in two upcoming exhibition games before opening the regular season in Durham against Presbyterian Nov. 17th.

Duke has its first ACC Conference title in its sight and is ready for postseason play.

This veteran team, which lost in the ACC Tournament semifiNo. 6 nals to Wake Forest Duke last year 2-1, is ready to make a run again— vs. starting with a chance No. 3 for revenge against Wake the Demon Deacons.

SUNDAY, 1 p.m.

Less than two Spry Stadium weeks ago, Duke (124-2, 5-3-2 in the ACC) battled ed back in a double overtimee thriller at home to capture a draw with then-No. 12 Wake Forest (12-4-3, 6-31). The No. 6 seeded Bluee Devils will now have a chancee to earn a win at No. 3 seeded ed Wake Forest Sunday at 1 p.m. m.

As the lower seed, Duke must ust travel to Winson-Salem, N.C. to play the Demon Deaconss at Spry Stadium.

“We know Wake Forest well, we’ve played Wake Forest over the years in big games, and besides the Carolina game, defiefinitely our biggest rival is Wake ke Forest,” head coach Robbie ie Church said.

Wake Forest closed the regu-

lar season with a 3-0 loss to Virginia Tech Wednesday, while Duke dismantled Francis Marion 4-0 in its season finale. Regardless, the Demon Deacons come armed with their tight defense that has only conceded 15 goals this season.

PARKER from page 5

Duke still seeking its first conference win

by Danielle Lazarus THE CHRONICLE

Duke is still looking for its first ACC win of the season, and this weekend will be its final chance to do so.

The No. 22 Blue Devils (7-9, 0-4 in the ACC) will take on No. 7 Virginia (14-3, 3-1) Saturday at Jack Katz Stadium. This is the No. 22 second straight week Duke Duke’s NCAA ranking vs. has improved, after goNo. 7 ing from unranked to UVA No. 24 last week.

“It’s an exciting Saturday, 1 p.m.

Koskinen Stadium week for us because it’s our final home match in the regular season, it’s senior day, it’s an ACC game and we’re very hungry for a win,” head coach Pam Bustin said. “Virginia is a very talented team with some exceptionally talented players, so for us it’s about organizing our team structure to put the strength in our… game plan to take [them] on.”

Virginia boasts two U.S. Olympians, forward Paige Selenski and midfielder Michelle Vittese, both redshirt seniors. Both Selenski and Vittese took the 2011 season off to train with the Olympic squad. In London, Selenski scored the United States’ only goal in its elimination game. She was one of only five goal scorers for the Americans throughout their six Olympic matches. She leads the Cavaliers with 23 goals, 11 assists and 95 shots, in addition to being fourth in the NCAA in goals per game and third in points per game.

Virginia’s dominant offense is powered

by Selenski, junior defender Elly Buckley and sophomore forward Rachel Sumfest, who have scored 23, 15 and 13 goals, respectively.

As a team, the Cavaliers have outscored their opponents by an average margin of almost three goals per game.

“We’ve really been working on how we read each other and how we’re hopefully going to control the tempo of the game,” Bustin said. “It’s a very high level of hockey, so that’s just exciting in itself.”

CHRIS DIECKHAUS/CHRONICLE FILE PHOTO

The Blue Devils depend on Emmie Le Marchand, who leads the team with 11 goals this season.

The Blue Devils’ leading scorer, junior forward Emmie Le Marchand, has 11 goals on the season, with the next highest being redshirt junior Devon Gagliardi with six and senior Mary Neilson with five. Their numbers are smaller than Virgina’s powerhouse trio of Selenski, Buckley, and Sumfest, but recently Duke has been stepping it up when it mattered. Last week junior defender Paula Heimbach scored her first career goal in overtime to propel the Blue Devils to victory past California.

Duke will need to harness the momentum from last week’s thrilling win in order to have a chance of beating the Cavaliers. In addition to remaining winless in the ACC, Duke has yet to defeat a higher-ranked opponent.

“Whenever we play a team in the ACC, it’s a great rivalry,” Bustin said. “We’re really excited. The coaching staff is really confident about where we are right now, so it’s really a matter the team just walking into it and staying focused for the full 70 minutes.”

are now only five still standing—BYU, Duke, Florida, Michigan State and Stanford.

Parker will attempt to lead Simeon Career Academy to its fourth-straight state championship this season. Playing in one of the toughest high school leagues in the land, the 6-foot-8 small forward averaged 19.5 points, 8.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 3.3 blocks and 1.4 steals per game last year. As the stats illustrate, there are few things that Parker cannot do on the hardwood. He possesses terrific size, a polished skill set reminiscent of a young Carmelo Anthony and a picturesque jump shot.

Perhaps best of all, he is as driven and grounded as he is talented. His upstanding character can be attributed to both his Mormon faith, his close-knit family and his NBA pedigree—his father, Sonny Parker, played for the Golden State Warriors from 1976-1982.

Since Parker was an underclassman, Krzyzewski has persistently recruited the Chicago prep prodigy. He was the first player in the class of 2013 to receive a scholarship offer from the Blue Devil coaching staff. Parker last visited Duke in January of 2011 for the home game against Maryland. Playing a national basketball schedule at Simeon, Parker was unable to take an unofficial visit to Durham last season. Last fall, Krzyzewski reportedly arrived to Parker’s open gym in a limo.

Unlike most stars, the soft-spoken Parker is attention-averse. To avoid the hoopla, he has changed his cell phone number multiple times in the past few years. Regardless of his efforts to avoid it, the hype surrounding Parker’s recruitment reached an unprecedented level last spring when Sports Illustrated put the Simeon star on its cover, dubbing him “The best high school player since LeBron James.”

Joining an elite fraternity, Parker is one of six high school basketball players to ever grace the cover of one of the most popular sports publications in the world.

In a classic instance of the Sports Illustrated cover jinx, Parker was riddled by injuries this summer, forcing him to miss much of his highly anticipated final summer on the AAU basketball circuit with his team, the Mac Irvin Fire. In the meantime, Wiggins’ dominance in June and July enabled him to dethrone Parker as the best player in high school basketball.

Parker’s absence further limited media accessibility to the star, which largely took him out of the spotlight and made his recruitment

even tighter lipped.

Among the schools left, Duke and Michigan State are widely considered the frontrunners to land Parker. Spartan head coach Tom Izzo has relentlessly recruited Parker, selling the blue-collar nature of his program as well as the proximity to Chicago. The Gators, meanwhile, are the dark horse of the race, while the Cougars and the Cardinal are seemingly on the outside looking in.

Despite the perceived advantage that the Blue Devils and Michigan State may have, the quietness of the Parker sweepstakes throughout the past few months has kept people guessing.

“I don’t know anymore,” said ESPN senior recruiting analyst Dave Telep, when asked who leads for Parker. “His recruitment has taken on a little bit of a life of its own in that everything is pretty contained.”

The containment should not last too much longer. Even though it does not appear that he will sign during the early signing period from Nov. 14-21, Parker is expected to announce his college decision before his high school basketball season kicks into high gear. Having already visited Michigan State, Parker will take official visits in the coming weeks to Florida Nov. 2-4, Stanford Nov. 9-11 and BYU Nov. 16-20.

Landing Parker would give Krzyzewski one of his most talented players ever.

Telep, who has scouted high school basketball for more than a decade, sees Parker as one of the best players in recent memory.

“He’s up there with Jason Williams, Dwight Howard, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Greg Oden,” Telep said.

W. SOCCER from page 6 with winning against them because we play them so often.”

This year’s tournament boasts a field where seven of the top eight teams are ranked in the top 25 in the country, and five that are ranked in the top 10. The field is led by Florida State, which defeated Duke 1-0 in September.

“The ACC tournament is important for us right now because we did finish sixth in the ACC regular season,” Campbell said.

“So if we want to get the best seed we can get in the NCAA Tournament, we need to go as far as we can, and maybe pull out a No. 1 seed.”

Florida State’s rushing defense yields just 69 yards per game, the second fewest in the nation.

FOOTBALL from page 5 an incredibly balanced attack that utilizes both their strong ground game as well as their talented quarterback E.J. Manuel. Although Florida State lost its leading rusher for the season in Chris Thompson to a torn ACL, the Seminoles have two strong running backs in Devonta Freeman and James Wilder Jr., who both average more than six yards per carry.

“I truly hate that for Chris Thompson because I think he is really one of the finer players in our league,” Cutcliffe said. “But Florida State, like all really good programs, is going to be deep. They have outstanding backs that have given us problems last year. We’ve seen them and we know how good they are.”

As for Manuel, the Blue Devils will need to ensure that they apply constant pressure on the quarterback. The senior from Virginia

Beach, Va. has 14 touchdowns with just four interceptions and boasts the sixth best passer rating in the country. However, he has been sacked 13 times this season, meaning that it is more than possible for Duke to keep Manuel on his toes and possible force mistakes.

Ultimately if the Blue Devils are to win this game, they need to perform in a near-perfect way and put pressure on the Seminoles. And history is not on their side as Florida State has won all 17 games in the series by an average margin of 34 points.

Yet this has been the season for changing history. Duke has beaten Wake Forest for the first time since 1999. The Blue Devils defeated North Carolina for just the second time in 24 years. And they have made their first bowl game since 1994.

“We all know we have four games left, starting with one of the more talented teams in the country,” Cutcliffe said. “It’s a gut check. And we’re going to find out a lot about ourselves.”

preneurship curriculums and degrees in the Law School— are heavy on the ‘E’ and light on the ‘I.’ It is unclear to us how much combining innnovation with entrepreneurship is a mere attempt to commoditize and cash in on a trendy idea. But it is also problematic in that it represents a genuine confusion of two important goals, and the subordination of one to the other.

We do not mean this discussion as a strong criticism of the initiative—its sights are obviously trained on entrepreneurship and not innovation more generally. But mixing up entrepreneurship and innovation does more than muddy the waters—it has pernicious implications.

Training students to inno-

vate, both in the disciplines and in life, is a pedagogical goal in its own right. If entrepreneurship is placed at the core of innovation, two bad consequences follow: First, we assume starting a business entails innovation.

The negative outcome here is that students who take themselves to be learning an important general skill— innovation—learn the more mundane skill of starting a business, and cannot tell the difference. We have all seen enough students hammer strained ideas into iPhone apps for the sake of having invented an app—any old app—to know that this practice leads nowhere.

Second, we assume that innovation entails starting a business. The negative out-

come here is that students with no desire to start a business, but with an innovative bent, become alienated from that important characteristic.

Startups are far from the only place where innovation is needed. Interestingly, Duke students have not started companies in lieu of employment in greater numbers since the beginning of the initiative. Students seeking employment still need to be trained in innovation, and to recognize that it has a significant role outside of entrepreneurship.

Both of these problems can be avoided by explicitly decoupling these two concepts, and by marking institutional developments that address innovation outside of entrepreneurship.

hosts numerous unauthorized files.

“Nothing that I know of suggests that Duke is any better or any worse [than other institutions],” Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta said. “We take it seriously and try to remind students that they are at risk if they share files illegally.”

The Office of Student Conduct and the Office of Information Technology send out an email at the beginning of every academic year warning undergraduate students of the illegality and consequences of copyright infringement.

Strict anti-piracy regulations at universities have decreased illegitimate network use, Ernesto van der Sar, founder of TorrentFreak and author of the report, noted.

He added that the data reflected lower piracy rates than he expected from universities. Van der Sar, who is from the Netherlands, uses a pseudonym in his position.

Duke regularly discusses security issues with peer schools in an effort to maintain open access to its network while educating individuals about how to responsibly use online resources, Cara Bonnett, managing editor for Duke OIT, wrote in an email Tuesday. Other universities use different approaches based on their the particular needs, legal requirements and culture, she added.

Van der Sar said Duke’s approach is reasonable, adding that the implementation of expensive security systems is futile because people will simply find a loophole.

“Instead, clearly inform students about the University’s policy toward copyright infringement, and respect the rights of both copyright holders and students,” he said.

In an effort to respect the privacy of students, staff and faculty, Duke only monitors bandwith usage, not the content or applications of network usage, Moneta said. If an individual uses an abnormally high amount of bandwidth, OIT ensures that the network is used for legitimate academic usage.

He added that unless copyright infringement is directly related to campus academics, the University is not involved in disciplining students who are caught. Although the University is informed of illegal activity on its network, cases go directly into the federal legal system.

“Students have to understand and hopefully come to value and respect intellectual property,” Moneta noted.

“First, it’s an ethical issue and second, it’s a practical one.

If caught, for students, it can be expensive and criminal.”

In contrast to popular thought, file-sharing itself is not illegal, only the sharing of copyrighted material, Bonnett noted. BitTorrent, she added, is also popular for its legal applications, including the sharing of Linux operating systems for games such as World of Warcraft.

In surveys and interviews of Duke students by the Kenan Institute for Ethics, students report pirating copyrighted music among the least unethical, said Noah Pickus, Nannerl O. Keohane director of the Kenan Institute. Online piracy is harmful to different areas of society, including the music industry and higher education, but students are not actively engaged in combating it.

“Students see actions where they can easily identify who is harmed—such as romantic cheating and drunk driving— as the most unethical,” Pickus wrote in an email Tuesday, “But, when they are unsure who is being harmed, they’re more likely just to do what is easiest.... That’s a shame in a university setting.”

Susan,* a sophomore, chooses not to fileshare, but does not entirely reject the practice.

“I always use legal alternatives such as Netflix or Hulu,” she said. “But if someone else torrents, I’m not going to report them. I’ve had other people torrent movies, and I’ve watched.”

Despite the University’s placement on the list, Moneta is optimistic about Duke’s policies.

“We have a good system,” Moneta said. “Students know what right and wrong is. We just have to keep pressing the right legal decision.” *Name has been changed for source’s protection. The source’s class year is accurate.
