Students to take stand Rejected applicant makes news for letter to admissions against Ind. law at Final Four Samantha Neal The Chronicle A high school senior rejected by Duke made national news from a tongue-incheek email she wrote to the admissions office. For thousands of high school seniors around the country, April is an exciting time to look ahead to the future of college life. For others, however, April also means dealing with the harsh reality of rejection. Siobhan O’Dell—a high school senior from High Point, N.C.— wrote a letter refusing to accept her rejection from Duke. “Thank you for your rejection letter of March 26, 2015,” wrote O’Dell in the email—which she also posted to social media platforms Twitter and Tumblr. “After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me admission into the Fall 2015 freshman class at Duke.” O’Dell was motivated to send the email after witnessing her peers stress out throughout the college application and decision process. “I just realized how much power these universities have over the lives of students, and what they have to say is pretty much the end all,” O’Dell said. “So I thought, ‘what if it wasn’t? What if students had the final decision?’” O’Dell said that she does not expect the email to reverse her decision, calling it a “joke”—nor did she anticipate it making national headlines. The letter was first picked up by teen magazine Seventeen and later featured on other news outlets including Good Morning America. “I would much rather be have [my acceptance] be based off my credentials than me being really sassy one time,” O’Dell said. “I wasn’t even that bitter.” Although her letter references receiving rejection letters from “the best and brightest universities in the country,” O’Dell reported that her only re-

jection letter came from Duke. This year, Duke accepted 2,650 students out of 28,000 applicants through regular decision—reaching an acceptance rate of 9.4 percent, the third time it has reached single digits. O’Dell said she will attend the University of South Carolina and plans to major in biology with a minor in mathematics. She hopes to become a pediatrician or pediatric oncologist. At the time of the interview, O’Dell said that she had not yet told her mother about the email because she was hoping that the attention would eventually die down. Her father found out about it online on April 1. “My dad saw it on Facebook and texted me, ‘I see you’re trending today,’” O’Dell said. She was also called to her principal’s office to discuss the email due to the viral effects of her letter, but no disciplinary action was taken. O’Dell’s email is not the first retort to college rejections that made national headlines. In 2013, Suzy Lee Weiss published an opinion piece in the Wall

Several students plan to distribute rainbow ribbons for attendees to wear at the game Emma Baccellieri News Editor

When the men’s basketball team squares off against Michigan State in Indianapolis this weekend for the Final Four, the student section will be awash in Duke blue—perhaps with a touch of rainbow. Several students involved in campus LGBTQ groups plan to distribute rainbow ribbons or stickers for the game, as a sign of solidarity in light of Indiana’s recent religious freedom law, the Indiana Religious Freedom Restoration Act. The law allows businesses to refuse services to anyone whose personal choices contradict the religious beliefs of the proprietor, and it has been widely criticized as being anti-LGBTQ. By wearing rainbow stickers or ribbons, students will be able to make a statement about their opposition of the law and their support of the LGBTQ community, See Applicant on Page 3 said Cameron Platt, a second-year MBA can-

didate in the Fuqua School of Business and the president of Fuqua Pride. “We can be vocal and visible about it,” Platt said, adding that he hopes some students will bring signs to the game expressing their dissatisfaction with the law. “Duke can bring the moral high ground and show that we’re supportive of the LGBTQ community.” Undergraduate and graduate students were eligible to win tickets to the game through a lottery, and many will be traveling to Indianapolis on chartered buses. While on the buses, a group of students will hand out the rainbow ribbons or stickers with a slip of paper explaining the law, Platt said. “To have some sort of visual display of solidarity at the event can be really impactful,” said senior Daniel Kort, president of Blue Devils United. The law has attracted criticism from a variety of political and civil rights groups, and with college basketball’s most prominent event in Indiana this weekend, a number of figures in the sports world have been vocal as well.

Other speakers included Graduate and Professional Student Council President Abigail Labella, a fourth-year Ph.D candidate in genetics and genomics, and Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta, who closed the forum. “You know how disgusted I am,” Moneta said, sympathizing with those who are affected by the symbol of the noose while referring to the abhorrence he feels toward the swastika after growing up as the son of Holocaust survivors. “I love you all and black lives matter,” he said. “We look forward to this never happening again.” Student responses to the forum were mixed. “A lot of what they said sounds like things they already said they were going to do,” said Lindsey Hallingquest, a sophomore. “They didn’t offer any concrete solutions.” Senior Elizabeth Onstwedder noted that this is hardly the first event of this nature she’s seen in her four years at Duke. “The longer I stay [at Duke] the more the more I see that these things aren’t isolated, which distressing,” she said. “I wanted to show support and I was curious about what administration’s response would be.” Bobo Bose-Kolanu, a doctoral candidate in literature, also attended to hear what concrete steps would be taken to combat racism. “I was pleasantly surprised by Kornbluth because she was the only one who outlined ways white people can use white privilege to deconstruct oppression,” he said. “It’s important to note that with privilege comes responsibility and that being born into an oppressive group doesn’t make you an oppressor.”

Thursday speaking out against the new legislation. Wednesday afternoon, head coach Mike Krzyzewski issued a joint statement with the other three Final Four coaches— Tom Izzo of Michigan State, John Calipari of Kentucky and Bo Ryan of Wisconsin— expressing concern about the law. The statement came two days after Duke issued a statement of its own speaking out against the law. “It’s comforting to know that the University is thinking about LGBTQ students in evaluating this policy,” Kort said. Some members of local LGBTQ communities have called for Duke to boycott the Final Four altogether. But to do so would not be fair to the team and fans, Platt said, adding that a visual display of protest can be quite powerful. “We have limited control over Indiana’s actions right now, but we can at least show our support for the LGBTQ community there and work for change moving forward,” Platt said.

When acts of escalated hatred and violence are made visible—when a noose is hung on a tree—people react. Unfortunately, this act is an anomaly in the visibility it has achieved. Other similar acts, just as overtly full of hatred and violence, occur invisibly despite being right under our noses. The appallingly, but not unexpectedly, low number of people who will speak up in the moment of hearing the whispering of a racial slur, the derisive laughter accompanying cat-calling or the slap following a couple’s shouting match is telling of what constitutes normal, expected behavior. This is further reflected in the desire not to engage in other people’s “relationship problems,” “family problems” or “personal problems”— or, in other words, we dismiss the serious, life-threatening situations of sexual, domestic, racial and gender violence. The mentality of “that’s their problem, not mine” permeates all our interactions and decisions and is how we define ourselves. We define ourselves as

recess

being not the other, and, unconsciously and consciously, we aim to keep these boundaries clean and devoid of contamination. To say, “Look at what those people do” requires absolutely no effort. It’s an innate defense mechanism. It takes the blame for crime and violence off of our own shoulders. It’s how we maneuver the world so that we ourselves may continue to feel alive, human and morally intact. The field of psychology gives our unconscious need to separate ourselves from others a name: the bystander effect. This is the phenomenon in which the more people that witness a life-threatening situation unfold, the more likely they are to do absolutely nothing. At its best, the bystander effect is a diffusion of responsibility, in which we put the responsibility to act on the shoulders of others and attempt to relieve ourselves from guilt. In its worst manifestation, we end up cloaking even the most visibly violent, morally offensive situations with invisibility.

The pervasive reality is this: we are complicit in these acts of hate and violence when we render them invisible. It is easy to not engage with what we may tell ourselves are simply the problems of others, but are these really problems of others if we ourselves become complicit through inaction? Events like today’s, where many people of a community gather together—out of not wanting to be left out or out of solidarity—in the face of a racist act, are welcome because they raise the public consciousness. But what will they have actually accomplished if we continue to be silent on an individual scale? We are hypocrites. Particular acts of hate and violence are brought into the limelight, becoming the instigators of a great public outcry. But the majority of these acts are noticed, ignored and left invisible. Too often, awareness does not precede action but, instead, deliberate inaction. - Stephanie Wu

Enron scandal reexamined in upcoming Duke play Tim Campbell The Chronicle For most Duke students, the Enron scandal is something we hear mentioned in passing – a reference brought up in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, the completion of a metaphor when something involving money goes horribly wrong. To people of our generation, Enron wasn’t quite long enough ago to be learned about in history class, but it happened just early enough in our lives to be something we don’t remember well. However, when Duke’s Department of Theater Studies premiers Lucy Prebble’s play Enron this Thursday, the facts, impacts and absurdities of the Enron scandal will be aired out in a new, refreshing and exciting way, showing that Enron was more than just a financial hullabaloo but also defined the stories of some of the most brilliant minds of a generation. Talya Klein, a Duke alumnus who has returned to do her first show at Duke since graduating in 2002, directs Duke’s production of Enron. Klein has worked around the world since her graduation, winning many awards in the process. “It’s exciting,” Klein confessed, “I never imagined that I would come back and direct a show, but it’s great to tap in with a new generation of theater students.” Ironically, the “new generation” that Klein describes were barely kids when the Enron scandal unfolded. It was in October of 2001 that Enron’s stock plummeted to a mere fraction of its prior value, and the shady financial loopholes that the company abused to mislead their

investors came to light. The Enron scandal was something that only adults would know much about, making Duke students even more readily impressionable by the depiction of the events that occurred. Ben Hatt, who plays the lead role of Enron executive Jeffrey Skilling, said that the play is particularly important for our generation, precisely “because it takes

place in this weird space where we were too young [to understand it], but it’s too recent for history books”. However, that isn’t to say that this play is just a moving diorama of the events that occurred. Klein feels that “the adults who come to this play, who were really present when this all happened, can learn a lot from seeing what our actors make of this event and how they see it and interpret

it”.

Enron is more than just a retelling; it looks into the events of the scandal and draws out meaning, demonstrating how intelligence and ambition can lead to disaster when unchecked by morality and highlighting how our perception of facts can be twisted to distort reality. Viewing the Enron scandal through this lens reveals that a simple chain of

events can be construed into a sweeping discussion of human action and morality. While this could be overwhelming, Enron leavens the story with comedy and absurdity. “What’s interesting is you can’t tell the difference between the ridiculous, absurd things that happen in the play and the real things that actually happened,” said Klein, “Some of the lines in this play were actually said, and are on the record,” she continued. This choice by Prebble encourages us to break down the disbelief that may otherwise come from a play where puppet dinosaurs lurk in the shadows at the edges of the set. Rather than trying to view the play as 100% accurate, or alternatively as being a pure artistic interpretation, the blurring of the edge between fact and fiction allows viewers to take the events on stage and see how their significance adds to the themes of the show and reflects broader truths of human ambition, emotion, and consequence. However, the transition into this head space isn’t naturally comfortable. Set designer Tilly Grimes noted that “finance isn’t a natural conversation that we’re in,” so using it as a stage for this broad discussion is difficult. To alleviate this barrier, Grimes redesigned the entirety of Sheafer Theater and created a raised stage for the set in order to evoke the feeling of a “high school auditorium”, and thereby make the play seem like “a commemorative history project”. “That familiarity hopefully will let you engage with the story, and engage with how it’s being told,” explained Grimes, saying that “it helps us access a conversation” by emphasizing the barrier between reality and a true story versus distorted perception and the retelling of previous events.

recess

Klein, Hatt, and Grimes were all quick to emphasize that this play bears far more significance than just promoting an understanding of what happened in the past; the events of Enron carry particular significance to Duke students, especially in the present economic climate we live in. “As Duke students, you’re the best and the brightest in the country, and you’re going to be the future leaders,” says Klein. “What makes this play interesting is that it’s asking, ‘how do you balance your obligation to innovation and personal success to how it’s affecting your community and whose lives you’re affecting?’”. “This is an important event to back into the educational sphere, especially at Duke University,” added Hatt; “seeing this play, doing this play… it offers good food for thought before we go out and interact with and become parts of financial companies.” More than just a warning of what might happen if you are caught, Enron is a call to future generations of bright minds like Skilling to think with a sense of community, obligation, and ethics, rather than merely trying to make money or leave a name for themselves. And yet, at the end of the day, Grimes says that we are left thinking, “Skilling, all these guys – none of them are really ‘bad guys.’” Enron really says just that – you don’t have to be a bad person to get caught up in bad things and reap the consequences. So, while not ever seeking to insinuate that we may be ‘bad guys’, Klein’s production of Enron challenges Duke students to be conscious of the effects of their actions, and to be aware of and try to improve the mark that our ambitious goals will leave on the world.

Blue Devils, Spartans to battle in Final Four Nick Martin Sports Editor

A lot has changed since the Blue Devils and Spartans first clashed in Indianapolis in November, and this time, a spot to the championship will be on the line. Top-seeded Duke will face seventhseeded Michigan State in the Final Four at Lucas Oil Stadium No. 7 Saturday at 6:09 Michigan p.m. to decide State who will advance vs. to the NCAA title No. 1 game. The Blue Duke Devils defeated SATURDAY, 6:09 p.m. the Spartans 81-71 Lucas Oil Stadium Nov. 18 behind a 19-point performance from senior guard Quinn Cook and a 17-point second-half outburst from freshman Tyus Jones. “We played them so early, we’re a different team and they’re a different team,” Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski said Tuesday. “It can have a negative impact if our guys remember them for who they were then. We should also show them who they were—because we’re a lot better.... You’ve got to stay current. It’s kind of like stats. The most relevant stats are the last four games.” If that is the case, then Michigan State (27-11) may have a difficult time putting the ball in the basket against Duke (334). Heading into Saturday’s matchup, the Blue Devils are ranked 18th in basketball statistician Ken Pomeroy’s adjusted defense efficiency ranking with a mark of 93.3—Michigan State ranks 46th. This represents a drastic improvement for Krzyzewski’s squad, which came into the tournament ranked outside the top 50. To put this in perspective, Duke has

held all four teams it has faced in the tournament to 57 points or fewer—a feat the Blue Devils managed just five times in ACC play. “If you throw out a couple really bad games, then we’re a pretty good defensive team—before the NCAA, or else we wouldn’t have won those game,” Krzyzewski said. “You have to play pretty good defense in order to win. With a young group, the more comfortable you get with physical defensive habits. individually and collectively, the better you’re going to be.”

Darbi Griffith | The Chronicle Freshman swingman Justise Winslow is averaging 14.0 points and 9.5 rebounds through the first four games of the NCAA tournament.

Part of this notable jump has come thanks to the improved defensive play of Cook, who has held his previous two defensive assignments—WCC Player of the Year Kevin Pangos and first-team All-Pac-12 guard Delon Wright—to 28.6 percent shooting from the field. Cook credits the improvement in his defense—which has been on display throughout the season—to his pre-game preparation and film study. “My mentality, my preparation [changed for the better],” Cook said. “I studied the guys that I’m playing way more than I ever have.... That’s just me getting mature and being mature and taking pride. I’ve always taken pride in outscoring the guy I’m matched up with. I’ve never taken pride in trying to shut somebody down. It’s just a pride thing that I learned to like.” Another dramatic change for the Blue Devils came as a result of a lineup shuffle made by Krzyzewski in mid-Feburary, when freshman center Jahlil Okafor was out with a sprained ankle. With the big man out of the paint, Krzyzewski made the move to go small and inserted Matt Jones into the starting lineup and slid freshman Justise Winslow to the power forward slot—a move that has remained permanent since Duke’s Feb. 21 win against Clemson. When Okafor returned, junior Amile Jefferson moved to the bench and Winslow remained at the four. This allowed the Houston native to stretch the floor for the Blue Devils—opening space inside for

Okafor—and has paid major dividends in the NCAA tournament. “It’s March. It’s now or never. I’m very confident within myself,” Winslow told GoDuke.com. “Mentally, I’m preparing better See Final Four on Page 11

Men’s Basketball

Michigan State hitting stride down the stretch Ryan Hoerger Beat Writer During his press conference Tuesday, Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski said that if he were a teacher, he would not assign cumulative grades, instead relying on what his students showed him at the end of the semester. Krzyzewski’s current pupils would be doing quite well in that class. “When do you get it?” Krzyzewski said. “For us, our guys get it right now. They understand the game plan better. It’s now become instinctive. They’ve been terrific in this tournament.” After a rocky start to the season, the same can be said for Michigan State. The Spartan team that the Blue Devils defeated back in November—in Indianapolis of all places—was early in the process of figuring out its identity. Gary Harris, Adreian Payne and Keith Appling— the core of last year’s Elite Eight team— had left for the pro ranks. Alvin Ellis III did not play due to a foot injury. Bryn Forbes’ finger injury affected his ability to dribble. And Michigan State still stayed with Duke for most of the night, falling 81-71 after Tyus Jones took control of the game down the stretch. The new Spartan trio of leaders—Travis Trice, Branden Dawson and Denzel Valentine—combined for 46 points, with Trice briefly flirting with a triple-double. “Under the circumstances right now, we competed and this team will get better,” Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo said after the game.

Darbi Griffith | Chronicle File Photo Senior guard Travis Trice is averaging 19.8 points per game in the NCAA tournament and will be the Spartans go-to offensive threat against Duke.

It did not happen right away, but Izzo’s promise came true. Duke, Kentucky and Wisconsin have been in the Final Four conversation all season long. Few people expected the Spartans to be in Indianapolis back in February. After a Feb. 7 home loss to Illinois, Michigan State’s record sat at 15-8 overall and 6-4 in the Big Ten. Backed into a corner, the Spartans reeled off 12 wins in their next 15 games, coming within 15 seconds of knocking off the Badgers in the Big Ten title game and navigating their way through Virginia and Louisville—two of the top four teams in the ACC—to

reach the Final Four as the champions of a chaotic East Region. As the team’s elder statesmen, Trice and Valentine have been through the gauntlet, and their veteran presence helped Michigan State right the ship after hitting rock bottom Dec. 20, when the Spartans lost at home to Texas Southern. “This team’s been battle tested,” Izzo said Tuesday in East Lansing, Mich., before Michigan State left for Indianapolis. “When I say ‘battle tested’ I mean Dawson and Trice, they played on an aircraft carrier [against North Carolina in 2011]—I mean real battle tested.”

Izzo’s clubs are always tough and gritty, ranking in the top 40 in rebounding yet again, powered by the athleticism and tenacity of Dawson—who at 6-foot-6 and 225 pounds will likely match up with Duke’s Justise Winslow for the second time this season. This year’s Spartans also rank fourth in the nation in assists with 17.1 per game, more than five of which come from Trice. The senior has been crucial to Michigan State’s resurgence. As the featured guard with Appling and Harris out of the picture, Trice’s scoring, rebounding and assist outputs See Spartans on Page 12

For twins Carly and Daniel Pardo, the stakes for Saturday’s Final Four contest will be twice as high Nick Martin Sports Editor The Blue Devils’ biggest game of the year will be even bigger in the Pardo household. Carly and Daniel Pardo are twins—like roughly 32 of every 1,000 people in the world—and in a twist of fate that even the oddsmakers in Las Vegas could not have predicted, they will be represented by two of the four teams making up this weekend’s Final Four. This Saturday, Carly—a sophomore psychology major at Duke—and Daniel—a political science major at Michigan State— will meet in Indianapolis to watch firsthand as the Blue Devils and Spartans duke it out for a spot in the national title game and the ultimate bragging rights for one of the Pardo twins. “We’re a very competitive family,” Daniel said. “From board games to skiing to playing sports, the whole family is competitive. I can’t say we aren’t a competitive family, because we will sit there and yell at each other. But it’s nice that we can be competitive and that the next day the loser won’t be sulking.” The Miami Beach, Fla., natives have deeper connections to Duke than Carly’s

current affiliation—their father, Stevan, completed his undergraduate and law degrees at Duke and instilled the fandom in his children at a young age. Even Daniel, who now cheers for the Spartans in the Izzone, was brought up as a Cameron Crazie. Carly never attended a Duke basketball game growing up, but her father did take

Daniel—who was and still is a self-proclaimed Blue Devil fan—to a few. “I grew up a pretty big Duke fan,” Daniel said. “It’s tough [when the two play] though.... When it comes down to Michigan State and Duke, I can never root for Duke because that keeps our rivalry going in the family.”

Now it is Carly who stands and screams among the Cameron Crazies—she called the 2014 Duke-North Carolina game at Cameron Indoor Stadium the best game she has attended in her two years in Durham. Daniel holds the upper hand in the age department—he is officially seven minutes older—but it is his sister who has the bragging rights heading into Saturday’s Final Four clash. Duke defeated Michigan State 81-71 Nov. 18 in Indianapolis, allowing Carly and her dad and little brother—also a Blue Devil fan—to give Daniel grief for the coming months. With the big game just days away, Carly said the trash talk has not yet started on the family group text, at least not the way it did in November. “We’ve had some trash talk on our family GroupMe. What’s usually the worst is when we’re actually playing against Michigan State,” Carly said. “That happened this year. Throughout the game there was just this message between me and my brother, my dad and my younger brother—we were all just trash-talking my twin.” The basketball trash talk does not end with what their respective teams do on the See Twins on Page 11

Duke to host top-ranked Notre Dame Scott Lee Beat Writer Looking to grab their first ACC victory of the season, the Blue Devils are hoping they can recreate last season’s postseason magic. In a rematch of last year’s national championship game, No. 1 Notre No. 7 Duke will face Dame its third No. 1 team vs. this year in Notre No. 7 Dame Saturday at Duke Koskinen Stadium at 5 p.m. Last season, SATURDAY, 5 p.m. the Blue Devils Koskinen Stadium captured their second consecutive national title by defeating the Fighting Irish 11-9. “Last year was a long time ago. Teams change,” head coach John Danowski said. “We don’t have our starting defense [from last year]. We lost our starting attack except for Case [Matheis].” This year, Duke (7-3, 0-2 in the ACC) has gotten younger at every position on the roster from last year’s championship squad. The attack is now paced by freshman Justin Guterding, the defense has been run by freshmen and sophomores, faceoffs are taken by first-time starter Jack Rowe and redshirt freshman Danny Fowler—brother

of former faceoff specialist Brendan Fowler—made his first career start in between the pipes last weekend against North Carolina. Offensively, the Blue Devils’ returning midfield duo of Deemer Class and Myles Jones have carried the team through stretches as Guterding has become an excellent scoring punch. The freshman has racked up 32 goals and nine assists on the season and has

fit into the offense well. The Fighting Irish (6-1, 2-0) have similarly welcomed a new face to their offense in freshman Mikey Wynne. The attackman leads the team with 21 goals and joins returning veterans Matt Kavanaugh and Sergio Perkovic. Although Danowski preaches a defensive strategy that doesn’t focus on shutting down a few specific players, he did acknowledge the skills of Wynne and Kavanaugh.

“You have got to defend them properly,” Danowski said. “You look at tendencies and formations and how they like to play. We have to slide and help appropriately. Kavanaugh is more of a dynamic dodger while Wynne is an off-the-ball finisher inside, crafty, very smooth. They are two very different players.” For the first time this season, Duke is coming off two straight losses—a 19-7 blowout to Syracuse and a 15-14 heartbreaker to North Carolina. Against the Orange, the Blue Devils came out flat en route to a 13-1 halftime deficit, but came out as a re-energized squad that just fell short in the closing minutes of a backand-forth battle against the Tar Heels. Saturday, Duke will have to bring more than its A-game against a talented Notre Dame squad. The Blue Devils are glad to be back at Koskinen, where they are undefeated thus far this season. “It’s a place where we’re comfortable,” Class said. “We’ve got the new press box, the new scoreboard. We’ve only had a couple games at Koskinen this year, so every time we’re home, it’s exciting.” In four home games this year, Duke has won by an average of 7.8 goals per game, with wins against then-No.10 Harvard and then-No. 12 Loyola in that See M.

As a team we realize this is our chance to do something special and be something special.” Through the first four games of the tournament, Winslow is averaging 14.0 points and 9.5 rebounds per game and is shooting 58.3 percent from long range— including a dagger with 2:52 remaining against Gonzaga to secure the Blue Devils a spot in Indianapolis. “[Justise’s versatility] does a lot for us with him playing the four a lot recently,” Tyus Jones said. “It’s a mismatch on the offensive end. We’re able to spread the floor a little more surrounding Jah.” The move has done wonders for the Blue Devils—they have lost just once since their rout of the Tigers—but has resulted in a drop in numbers for Okafor. In the 10 games since Winslow took over the four spot, Okafor is averaging 16.3 points and 6.8 rebounds per contest—a slight dip from his overall season averages of 17.5 and 8.7. Despite the statistical dip, Okafor exploded in the first two rounds of the tournament, scoring 21 points against Robert Morris and 26 against San Diego State. Then, for the first time all season, Okafor failed to score double-digits in consecutive games, putting up just 15 combined points against Utah and Gonzaga. But if history is bound to repeat itself,

then Saturday’s game should put the Chicago native back on track. Although the Spartans are a different team than in November, the matchup down low will be the same, as 6-foot-9 forward Matt Costello will bump heads with Okafor. In the Nov. 18 meeting, Okafor owned the paint, going for 17 points and five rebounds on 8-of-10 shooting. Even with the successful experience under his belt, Okafor—along with the rest of the players—was quick to point out that a lot has changed since November. “We got better when we played Michigan State, and they did too even though they lost. But they’re a different team and so are we,” Okafor said. “That was just a game that was part of our journey and that’s going to be a good team we’re playing this Saturday and we’re looking forward to it.” The winner of Saturday’s contest will take on the winner of the second semifinal between No. 1 seeds Kentucky and Wisconsin in the national championship game Monday at 9 p.m.

continued from page 9 doubled from last season. Entering his final postseason, Trice has taken his play to another level. The Huber Heights, Ohio, native has been held to fewer than 15 points just once since Feb. 16, and is averaging 19.8 points per game in the NCAA tournament. “I think he’s been the best player in the tournament of any team. I don’t think there’s a kid playing any better than that kid,” Krzyzewski said. “Trice is just out of sight right now. The cockiness, the confidence— he’s a very difficult guy to defend.” Just as Quinn Cook has reaped the benefits of playing off the ball with Tyus Jones at the point, Trice has seen a dramatic uptick in his scoring with the insertion of freshman guard Lourawls “Tum Tum” Nairn Jr. into the starting lineup midway through the season. The freshman started Michigan State’s next game after the loss to Illinois and has started every game since. A true point guard who has yet to reach double-figures in a game this season, the freshman has dished out 2.3 assists per

contest and earned a ringing endorsement from former Spartan Draymond Green during the summer for his leadership skills. Roommates on the road, Trice and Nairn Jr. have developed a mentorship relationship similar to that of Cook and Jones. “I don’t think of it this way, but in a small way for a small period of time, Tum took Travis’ job,” Izzo said. “Travis Trice has been so good with that kid.” Beating a team twice in a season is difficult—much less twice in the same city—but that is the task ahead of Duke to make it to Monday’s national title game. Krzyzewski and his players understand that both teams have changed dramatically since their first meeting at BankersLife Fieldhouse Nov. 18, and will not rely much on the film from that game in developing their game plan. “The most relevant stats are the last four games, the last few games,” Krzyzewski said. “We have season stats, conference stats, but the stats I look at are the last four games, because they tell you more about who that team is and who that player is right now.” By those criteria, Michigan State will be a very tough out come Saturday night.

stretch. Notre Dame is on a different level, however, and Duke’s record with elite teams this year has a lot of room for improvement. An early-season loss to then-No. 1 Denver by a score of 17-13 was one Danowski chalked up to inexperience and a young team finding its footing. Five straight wins later, the Blue Devils traveled to the Carrier Dome to play its second No. 1 opponent of the season. Duke was overmatched from the opening whistle, as a constant barrage of Syracuse offense put the Blue Devils on their heels. The week after, No. 4 North Carolina outlasted the Blue Devils as sloppy play and turnovers cost Duke a chance at bouncing back from the previous week’s fiasco. “We thought we brought a lot more energy after the Syracuse game, so that was good to see,” Class said. “Obviously, we had a couple mistakes here and there we wish we could get back, so we’ve been working hard all week to fine tune some of those things.”

Faceoffs were a problem last week for the Blue Devils, a major part of their failure to close out the game. As a team, Duke lost 22 of 33 faceoffs, with Rowe taking all but five. The lack of possessions kept the Blue Devils from establishing an offensive rhythm and giving the defense a breather. Fortunately for Duke, Notre Dame has struggled mightily with faceoffs this year, winning less than 50 percent of them throughout the season. Another key to the Blue Devils’ success will be Jones finding his rhythm again after a small slump. He shot just 2-of-10 against North Carolina, but Danowski had positive encouragement for his star midfielder. “Shooters shoot. We have a saying we took from Billy Tubbs at Oklahoma, ‘Shoot to get hot, shoot to stay hot,’” Danowski said. “Good players have to shoot the ball. Sometimes they go in and sometimes they don’t. You want your best players shooting the ball. If he can get 10 shots against Carolina, it’s a good omen. It means he’s getting his hands free and get open. The hope is he will keep shooting with confidence and eventually a couple more will fall.”

to teach or to have the graduate student teach? That is the question.

ast Thursday, a bill was proposed in the North Carolina General Assembly that conditions the salary of University of North Carolina school system professors on teaching a four course minimum per semester—up from the current average of 3.7 courses. For some UNC system schools, the average professor is already in compliance or close to it. In others that are much more heavily involved in research, the average is as low as 3.0, at N.C. State, or 2.5, for tenured UNC Chapel Hill professors. The bill is intended to make professors choose students over research when their attentions are divided. Besides its likely negative impacts on research, the bill asks a basic question about whether professors or their graduate students should be teaching our classes. Ultimately, however, such blanket legislation as this is entirely precluded by the uniqueness of every department and class syllabus. For graduate students, there are concerns about how well they are suited for teaching roles given that their graduate studies do not necessarily indicate an interest in or propensity for teaching. Furthermore, graduate students typically have a very strenuous

workload, particularly in Ph.D. programs, and classes stand to suffer in their priorities. This is not to say there are no classes suited well to graduate student teaching. Introductory classes with simpler syllabi that are more straightforward may be well-suited to graduate students whose fundamentals are fresher in memory and who can more closely identify with students who are just getting into a discipline. However, as course numbers climb to more nuanced classes, so does the expectation of a teacher’s ability to communicate complex and more obscure material. Many students prefer professors simply because they are more qualified to teach and have more experience with educational pedagogy and the disciplines themselves. For these classes, graduate students can function well as graders and discussion section leaders, attending to specific material and well-defined topics. This allows graduate students to wear training wheels for their development as educators, with potential, of course, for larger roles. With respect to research and the effects of this legislation, teaching fewer classes than average is

part of how professors balance teaching and research. The pursuit of research is not only for academic exploration and the receipt of accolades but also for attracting graduate and undergraduate students alike to doing research in their fields. The dichotomy between a professor who focuses on students and a professor who focuses on research is a false one. Many professors keep a successful balance and make use of their research to expand the effects of their teaching and access to students. To what extent a course should include a graduate student is a decision best left to individual departments given the high variation in the types of knowledge between and within each department, let alone among every class. The generation of knowledge that is hopefully incorporated into the lecture hall, in addition to teaching, is the true role of a professor but is sometimes achievable by graduate students. Thus, the best way to ensure a university’s educational mission is being accomplished is close attention to the details, not blanket legislation that holds salaries hostage for an almost arbitrary teaching requirement.

Haters gonna hate

I hope people allow the investigation to find some evidence or reach some conclusions before they themselves speculate as to the race or intentions of the noose hanger. Head caution when placing early blame with no facts.

went into this week planning to write about something other than basketball, even with our upcoming trip to the Final Four. I even came with some half-viable topics. However the celebrations that followed our 66-52 win this Sunday over Gonzaga somehow led me to more than a few beers then to the ESPN documentary, “I Hate Christian Laettner.” I didn’t exactly grow up a huge college basketball fan, but let’s be real, if I did, I might have hated Laettner too. I mean the dude might not have been the rich kid the media portrayed him to be, but he wasn’t exactly the nice boy next door and he dominated the college basketball world for his four years. “Hate” is a natural human emotion, but one that has become so strong and often out shadows its counterpart of “love.” And the country definitely loves to hate us. We are often one of the few pri-

Dillon Patel it’s casual... vate schools to dominate college basketball. We are stereotyped as a “rich, white kid,” school, we floor slap, we have crazy fans and most of all, we have performed well at a high level. The combination of these would make a championship game against Kentucky particularly interesting—not to get ahead of ourselves, but hey, my column runs Thursdays so this might be my only chance to make this analogy. If Duke and Kentucky were to match up, would people continue to hate us more than any other team in the country or would being the unlikely underdog suddenly propel us to America’s sweetheart? The way I see it, hate will almost certainly win out and most basketball fans would hope to see Duke and Kentucky battle it out in that final game, but also want neither team to win it all. People love to hate. People love to hate more than they love to love. But here is the thing, is it even possible to have “love,” without “hate?” Probably not. But, why we do often hate more than we love.

Let’s play a game. Make a list of all the college teams you really love. Now make a list of all the ones that you really hate. Which one is longer? Well, if you are anything like me, it’s definitely that second list. If its not, you can probably just stop reading this article now. This underlying “love to hate,” has even translated heavily onto the online realm in what some call a tendency for “hate-reading”—or “hate-listening” and “hate-watching”. In short, this describes the phenomenon by which we are strangely drawn to media that we know, even prior to being exposed to it, will infuriate us. It’s the reason we tune in every time Sarah Palin is going to give a speech or always love to look at the Yik Yak of our sport opponents—or sadly our own Yik Yaks as well. This “outrage” media has fueled both actions and speech that are purposely intended to provoke an emotional response, much like when Duke and Carolina fans end up in each other’s hood. I spent Friday night on Carolina’s campus celebrating a friend’s 21st and was definitely guilty of some “slight” provoking, making it no secret that I was a Duke fan during our game against Utah. Part of this love to hate includes a desire for a clear distinction of good versus evil and right versus wrong. It’s the reason the referees are “always wrong,” and “always help the other team more.” It’s also the reason Duke fans love reliving Laettner’s epic 1992 regional final buzzer-beater against Kentucky while Duke haters are quick to point out that Laettner should have been ejected earlier for stomping on a Kentucky player’s chest. Hate often blinds us to reality, but if I learned anything from the “I hate Christian Laettner” documentary, it can also fuel motivation. In sports, we can talk about sportsmanship, the love of the game and respect for raw talent, but at the end of the game, somebody wins and somebody loses. No one goes down in history for being second place. So for now, I hate Michigan State and hopefully come Monday, I’ll hate Kentucky even more. Dillon Patel is a Trinity junior.

i am what i am when i am it

id you know that as recently as the 1960s Duke’s University Security was writing letters back and forth with the FBI in collaborative efforts to identify potential homosexual members of the Duke student population and expel them? A security activity report on campus crime in 1964 lists “homosexuals” along with “explosives”, “fires in dormitories”, “rapes”, “assaults”, and “intoxication”. At least 64 gay men (apparently gay women didn’t exist back then) were expelled for the “crime” of homosexuality during this time period. This is our history. If you took the time to walk through the Queering Duke exhibit in Perkins Library last semester, you would have been able to see some jaw-dropping documents on display. Reading a typewritten letter from former president Sanford openly condemning homosexuality and implying it to be a “choice” sent chills down my spine. I couldn’t believe it, but somehow, there it was in front of me.

We considered the many degrees of this fear. There is fear of not being able to put someone in a predictable category or box. “As a bisexual male, it’s frustrating when people think I identify as bi because I am just not brave enough to say I’m gay,” my friend said. “I have explored. I like both. I am bi. Period. And that’s scary to them for some reason because it feels too variable.” He went on to discuss how those who usually felt most threatened by his sexual liberation were straight men. It was as though they saw his identity expression as a threat to their own masculinity. This perceived threat sometimes led to the next degree of fear, a fear of being associated with homosexuality and responding through aggressive attempts to distance oneself from it by hurling hurtful remarks like “That’s so gay” and “Don’t be such a f*g.” It’s the perfect example of pushing someone else down to erase one’s own discomfort with one’s self— of trying to prove one’s strength, but actually more thoroughly

The real world off-campus

t the end of my junior year, a few friends and I decided we were ready to move off-campus. The dorms are great and quite convenient in terms of being able to roll out of bed and make it to class within five minutes, but we were ready to gain a little independence. So we found a house a few minutes off-campus. We have a porch and a freezer filled with gelato and a living room for gatherings. We also have possums in the attic and pipes that froze during the cold of the winter, but those are stories for another time. Welcome to the real world. A kitchen to cook in, the freedom to have gatherings and parties and to sit on the front porch eating breakfast—living off-campus has been everything my roommates and I hoped it would be, and more. But aside from the benefits of being able to pack a few more people into a room without an RA

it’s called a “victory lap”

adding it all up

What I find even more chilling is the fact that President Sanford was considered to be one of the most progressive leaders of his time. Current Duke president Brodhead noted in his remarks at the opening of the Queering Duke exhibit that U.S. President John F. Kennedy even considered dropping Lyndon Johnson and taking Sanford as his VP candidate for his second term for this very reason! We have come a long way. Now when I think of progressive leaders on Duke’s campus, I think of Jacob Tobia pulling off killer heels on a flyer for a DSG Equity and Outreach position claiming to be the “Candidate with the Best Platform(s).” That said, I still can’t shake the fact that there are still 29 states—North Carolina being one of them—where it is legal to fire someone for being homosexual. There are still 16 states without full marriage equality. The average lifespan of a transgender individual is still just 23 years old. Transgender persons are four times more likely to live in poverty and experience unemployment at twice the rate of the general population. Not to mention transgender persons of color experience unemployment of up to four times the national rate. On top of all this, there are still people who think it is okay to attend gay pride parades with disgustingly hateful posters—it’s not a prejudice they feel the need to hide. Yet, that is. I am blessed to have friends all over the spectrum of sexuality and gender performance. Witnessing their journeys and acceptance of themselves has been critical to my own path towards greater self-love, acceptance and exploration. When hanging out, social justice is naturally a topic that pops up in our conversations. We have all pondered what it will take for society to reach full acceptance for sexual and gender diversity. A couple weeks ago, one of my guy friends who identifies as bisexual made a point I found very eye opening. “Discrimination against non-heterosexual individuals has much less to do with hatred,” he said, “And much more to do with fear.”

pronouncing one’s insecurity instead. I was reminded of another comment a female friend of mine had made that “one of the greatest marks of homophobia is the fear of being perceived as non-heterosexual.” This is something even those who wish to serve as allies can find themselves struggling to overcome. Where does this fear come from, we wondered. How could socialization and taboo possibly be that powerful? Are we truly that terrified that if people could freely express their own identities then it would put our own in question? What does that say about the stability of the means we use to define ourselves? Despite all of the questioning this issue digs up, I still believe we are making progress forward. Because the events that happened at Duke in the 1960s do feel shocking now. And one day the homophobic events presently happening on campus and across the country will feel shocking, too. I believe, one day, the worst that will come of an individual exploring their sexuality will be that person realizing they don’t like something, for themselves, and letting that be that. No judgment, no boxes, no xyz label. I believe, one day, a person’s sexuality will not be seen as their entire identity, but rather just one of many characteristics that make up who they are. I believe it will seem obvious that gender is a spectrum— and the concept of needing to identify as entirely straight or entirely gay will seem outdated. The binary of gender will be recognized as the social construction that it is— an obsolete tool derived from unfounded fear, need to categorize, and need for certainty. Spoken word artist Andrea Gibson—who also happens to be queer—writes, “I am what I am when I am it.” I believe, one day, this will be an expression we feel applies to all of us. Because we don’t have to choose. We don’t have to decide. We can just be.

knocking on the door—though in this case the stakes are a little higher because a knock on the door is usually the neighbors, followed by the cops—there are quite a few tangible benefits of living off-campus during senior year. First of all, the cost. By cooking at home, I save at least $400 from the lowest meal plan—which on West Campus runs about $2000 for the year—because I can buy groceries for less than $200 per month. That’s more budget I have for eating out on the weekends or grabbing food on campus when it’s more convenient and I’m too lazy to cook—which is often. Rent and utilities are also major cost-savers. For most people I know, these expenses run in the $650 to $700 range per month. Even at the high end of that range—mine is much further below that at about $550—that’s a savings of about $2000 from a single on West, which runs about $8600 for the year—and more if you add in the air conditioning. But almost as important as the cost-savings themselves is the simple act of keeping track of bills. Many of us haven’t had to pay for most of our living expenses before now, and even those of us like myself, who have been paying our Duke bill all along, can be mislead by the complexity of making payments. Sure I’ve been paying for my food—in the form of on-campus food points which often feel like monopoly money—and housing—in the form of a tiny double in the back corner of Edens—but those costs all come bundled up in one little number at the bottom of my bill. The real world is, unfortunately, much less straightforward. Remember that stretch of a few weeks when the temperatures dipped into the negatives and no matter how much you cranked up the heater you still felt cold? Bank account cringed. That time you got sick for weeks on end and in the end you paid over $100 for prescriptions and antibiotics? Bank account cringed. That time you went grocery shopping for a week’s worth of food that got consumed in three days of midterms stress? Needless to say, the bank account feels the brunt of it. Living off-campus has been a reality check into the unexpected twists, turns and expenses of life that we never quite saw in our tuition bill or the tuition bill that automatically gets forwarded to Mom or Dad. Nothing will make you miss the convenience of a lump-sum bill or those helping hands until your January utilities bill comes around in the mail. While feeling the burden of the ups and downs of daily living expenses isn’t always easy, it gives us a better idea of how to best manage our funds and cut costs where we can— it makes for an easier transition to the world further offcampus. And let’s be honest, nothing will make you grow up faster than setting up the water bill, calling the plumber for your frozen pipes, and killing all the cockroaches on your own. This senior year version of the the real world is, I should add, the greatest slice of life I’ve ever experienced. The independence of having your own place, the freedom to rent black lights and convert your living room into a glow party, and the fun of getting to be in college for just a little bit longer. Because regardless of the heating bill and the frozen pipes and the possum in the attic—RIP little guy—the real, real world out there doesn’t seem nearly as fun. Julia Janco is a Trinity senior.
