Red Storm rises St. John’s knocks off No. 2 Duke in a Cameron thriller

By VICTOR ZHAO The Chronicle

Who said sequels never live up to

the original?

Almost exactly one year after Duke survived a double-overtime shootout with St. John’s at Madison Square Garden, the two teams got together again Saturday and waged another war for the ages.

A wide-open Bootsy Thornton fired the game-winning salvo from just inside the three-point line over the outstretched hands of Shane Battier with under 12 seconds left in Saturday’s clash, delivering St. John's (20-6) a thrilling 83-82 victory against Duke (22-4) in Cameron Indoor Stadium.

“The play was for Erick [Barkleyl—a screen and roll,” said Thornton, who led all scorers with

Keohane: ‘We should have talked openly’ President Nan Keohane told the Board of Trustees that University officials erred by not quickly disclosing the details of an alcohol-related death last fall.

By KATHERINE STROUP The Chronicle

President Nan Keohane stood at a podium before the Board of Trustees Friday and offered a. heartfelt confession.

Her voice quivering with emotion, Keohane shared a shocking admission of guilt in the University’s handling of Pratt junior Raheem Bath’s alcohol-related death.

Although she insisted that concerns about patient confidentiality and general sensitivity made it impossible to openly discuss the details surrounding Bath’s death immediately, the president acknowledged that administrators should have addressed rampant rumors and capitalized on the teachable moment.

“In retrospect, we should have been more aggressive in our response at the outset, less sensitive to the immediate tragedy perhaps and more sensitive to the long-term implications of this particular death,” she said. “We should have talked openly about this in December, bringing home the shocking import of this death as a cautionary tale for others, while the emotional wounds were still fresh.”

Administrators have long believed that Bath’s Nov. 27 death was caused by aspiration pneumonia, which he contracted by inhaling his own vomit. In December,

WASHINGTON Gov. George Bush expressed regret Sunday for not speaking out against racial and religious intolerance during a visit to Bob Jones University in South Carolina, an appearance that has come to haunt his campaign and challenge his claim to being a new kind of conservative eager to expand the Republican Party’s appeal to all voters.

Words of anger, frustration and NEW YORK concern rose Sunday from pulpits, and more than 1,000 demonstrators took to the streets for a third day of prayer and protest, displaying the roiling emotions after the acquittal last Friday of four police officers in the shooting death of Amadou Diallo.

the university was a mistake. The decision to publicly apologize reflected the depth of concern in the Bush campaign that the tenacious after-life of the episode was doing Bush political damage.

“On reflection, I should have been more clear in disassociating myself from anti-Catholic sentiments and racial prejudice,” Bush said to O’Connor in the letter, which the Bush campaign said was mailed Friday. “It was a missed opportunity causing needless offense, which I deeply regret,” he wrote.

“Optimist: day dreamer more elegantly spelled.”

-Mark Twain

At St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Auxiliary Bishop James McCarthy told the congregation that Diallo’s death should cause people to “re-examine our own

tendencies toward violence, toward fear and perhaps toward prejudice—racial prejudice at that.”

Former Mayor David Dinkins, speaking at First Sharon Baptist Church on East 116th Street in Harlem, called on the parishioners to make their opposition to the verdict widely known.

At Abyssinian Baptist Church on West 138th Street in Harlem, Rev. Calvin Butts compared the verdict to events in South Africa that led once peaceful black leaders to resort to acts ofviolence in their struggle.

“I feel a little like my Lord, I want to kick over some tables,” said Butts, who has at times been a strident critic of Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. Butts’ comments were greeted with cheers and applause in the church, a bastion of the Harlem establishment.

Despite the sometimes strident language, the day passed without violence. But there were tense moments Sunday afternoon when some of the more than

1,000 people who had assembled at the United Nations for a prayer vigil began to head down Second Avenue, disrupting traffic until police officials appealed to protest organizers to contain the march.

This year, Jean-Baptiste overcame the initial hurdle with a small first project—getting Italian dressing in the Marketplace—and graduated to larger projects.

One of those is a possible Bus Driver Appreciation Day. Although the project is still very much in the works, Associate Vice President for Auxiliary Services Joe Pietrantoni said Jean-Baptiste’s idea was well-thought through and feasible.

“He’s got a good mind, he thinks through the process and puts a lot of thoughts down that need to be considered,” Pietrantoni said. “Any time you take time to support an employee, I support it.”

Although his youth could be a handicap next year—especially in tandem with a possibly inexperienced DSG president—those who have worked with JeanBaptiste praise his poise and maturity.

“He worked closely with me seeking solutions to East Campus social life problems. He actively researched DSC—learning what happened in the last five years,” said Trinity sophomore and student affairs committee member Jason Freedman, a DSG presidential candidate.

But if you never show back up, and you never are concerned or you’re always too busy to talk to that one person you shook hands with, you’re not living up to your promise.”

The Board also approved the much-discussed merger of the botany and zoology departments. As of July 1,the two will join in a single biology department—creating one of the largest and most prominent departments at the University.

Despite some initial concerns, the merger had been approved by both departments, the Academic Priorities Committee and the Academic Council. The Board issued the final stamp of approval Friday.

The campaign continues to perform exceptionally well, reported Trustee and campaign co-chair Peter Nicholas. He thanked the Trustees, who have given a total of $lBO million to the campaign. He added, however, that the University still needs their help. “[slBo million! is terrific, and that number is going to have to increase obviously, maybe double, in the next three to four years,” Nicholas said.

Ofthe two candidates running for the position, Trinity junior Jason Bergsman stands out both because he has a solid understanding of these issues and he stresses them in his campaign. His experience in DSG with the Undergraduate Judicial Board and on a University committee provides him with a deep background that provides a foundation to his ideas.

This impressive knowledge of academic affairs will make him quite capable ofrepresenting student interests next year. Students and administrators will learn to trust Bergsman’s voice as the University tries to become C2K-compatible.

Bergsman’s opponent, incumbent and Trinity sophomore Drew Ensign, has only one significant achievement to point to from this year—a revised course evaluation system. However, his goals for a second term—which should be even more ambitious —are not.

They consist mainly of completing the course evaluation system and several smaller initiatives like adding a public policy minor that fit better as Legislator Individual Projects, not core planks for a vice president’s platform.

Because ofhis broad focus and ambitious goals, The Chronicle endorses Jason Bergsman for the position of DSG vice president for academic affairs.

Going Grey

This

year’s candidates for the position of Duke Student Government vice president for facilities and athletics can be summarized with one word—inexperienced.

Both Trinity freshmen Emily Grey and Brandon Lowy are, well, freshmen. Their work on DSG committees has not blown anyone away, and their knowledge of University issues is not what one would hope for in potential DSG executives.

However, Grey’s enthusiasm, communication skills and willingness to work hard make her the obvious choice.

Grey is aware ofthe important issues facing the facilities and athletics committee next year. Although she may not have all the answers right now, she clearly will be an aggressive advocate for student interests, especially on the critical issue of parking.

Her major project—working on a parking safety pamphlet that was distributed to all undergraduates—demonstrated that she is willing to see a project from the concept stage to completion. She has strong interpersonal skills, and appears to be the type of leader who can successfully motivate a committee of legislators to complete their individual projects. She also emphasizes talking with “average” students, improving what is currently a major weakness of DSG—communication with the general student body.

In an underwhelming field of candidates, The Chronicle endorses Emily Grey for the position ofvice president of facilities and athletics.

Students need to weigh all sides of the flag issue I recently heard from Duke friends and from reading The Chronicle Online about the debate concerning the traditional week at Myrtle Beach, S.C. this year.

This must be a difficult issue for students to face, since even if some people go and others don’t, those who do go will notice a community that is even more segregated than it usually is on campus.

For some students, it isn’t an issue. After all, as one friend said to me, most black residents of South Carolinian could care less about the flag flying over their state capitol, so why should we?

As an Asian-American, I’m still not sure how I feel about the Confederate flag, despite the fact that I attend-

Tie ribbons to remember rape victims and survivors It is that time of year again. By the end of the week, the chains on the Main West Campus Quadrangle will be filled with purple ribbons, representing those who are victims and survivors of sexual violence. Do you wonder what you might feel while tying a ribbon? Or to have someone tie one for you? Maybe you already know. The emotions can be stifling, and similar to those throughout the process of surviving: Confusion. Fear.

Sadness. Anger. Desperation.

To see so many purple rib-

bons tied is disheartening.

This sad reality should encourage us to fight against the violence that is a part of our pasts and our lives here on campus. At the same time, there is a clarity and a comfort that results from the numbers—we are not alone in the struggle.

Rape Awareness Week gives everyone on this campus an opportunity to reach out and become more involved. We challenge you to take part in at least one of the events this week.

What you learn might help

a friend, relative or even

yourself.

Most of all, when you pass

those purple ribbons, remember that each has a story. A story that someone in our community carries deep inside. It is only by working together to break the silence that we have the power to make every day free of sexual violence.

Retaliation: Tar Heels avenge thumping with upset win

By ANDREA BOOKMAN The Chronicle

What a difference a 73 CHAPEL HILL month makes.

Duke 64 In January, the women’s basketball team trounced North Carolina in Cameron Indoor Stadium by 43 points. Yesterday, the Tar Heels avenged that loss with a 73-64 win in Carmichael Auditorium.

Playing with point guard Nikki Teasley, who missed the January Duke game during a seven-game leave of absence from North Carolina, the Tar Heels (16-11, 88 in ACC) used strict man-to-man defense to frustrate the No. 9 Blue Devils (23-5,12-4).

By contrast, Duke’s normally stellar defense was noticeably absent.

“Our team defense was non-existent,” coach Gail Goestenkors said. “We take great pride in our team defense, so it’s very disappointing. We couldn’t make easy shots or free throws.”

The game was tight throughout, with neither team leading by more than three until halfway through the second half. With eight minutes remaining in the game and the Tar Heels up 43-41, a fight for a rebound sent the ball out of bounds to North Carolina.

The Blue Devil defense stifled the Tar Heels until the shot clock was below five seconds when Teasley calmly drained her only three-pointer of the game.

Suddenly, the momentum shifted. In this game, a fivepoint lead was huge.

On the next play, a driving Gingrich was fouled, but the sophomore only made one of two free throws in a game during which Duke—the conference’s leading free-throw shooting team—shot a dismal 67 percent from the charity stripe.

Carrawell, Battier fail to deliver in game’s key moments Chris Carrawell stood in his locker room confused and angry with himself.

He had just dropped his fourth game ever in Cameron, but his second in as many weeks, and the senior guard was

visibly shaken. The usually outspoken Carrawell was much more quiet than usual, struggling to express himself.

Neal Morgan Game Commentary He didn’t know exactly why it happened, or even how it happened, but he certainly knew what had happened. In the final minutes of Saturdays 83-82 loss to St. John’s, Carrawell was given the ball and asked to take over. For perhaps the first time all season, he failed to deliver.

“I don’t know, I don’t know,” Carrawell said, shaking his head. “It just wasn’t there. It’s probably the first time all year, it just wasn’t there. The first half, I think I played well. The second half, I don’t know what the hell was going 0n.,.. It’s probably the first time all year, I didn’t come through.”

Carrawell scored just four points in the second half on just l-of-5 shooting, missing his last four shots. On consecutive possessions in the game’s final two-and-a-half minutes, Carrawell was called for a charge (his uncharacteristic fourth foul) and then was stripped by Anthony Glover.

“I did some uncharacteristic things,” Carrawell said. “I was in foul trouble, I missed free throws, lost the ball two, three times; it was a tough loss.”

Carrawell has had off-nights before, but when he has struggled, fellow captain Shane Battier has always been there to pick up the slack. Battier scored 11 points during an early 22-5 run, but after his brief offensive burst, Battier disappeared faster than Wojo in crunch time. The

Both players halfand took just two shots from the floor. have admitted to fatigue, so it is fair to ask “I settled for the jump shot,” Battier how much longer can they go. Carrawell is said. “I stopped looking to penetrate and a warrior, but he is worn down.

Beyond its zone defense, St. John’s did “I don’t know. You could definitely tell I nothing special to contain either player. was [tired],” Carrawell said. “It was hot in Saturday was just one ofthose days when there today, it wore me out. No Dunleavy, see, its like I’m making excuses now. They Duke’s duo struggled at the same time.

“Shane and Chris, they’re great veterbeat us, don’t get me wrong. But we’ve got ans,” Jason Williams said. “They’ve done to play 40 minutes. It was tough.”

Although Carrawell can’t quite put a number of step-ups for us throughout the season. When you see [them struggling], I tried to pick it up, Carlos [Boozer] tried to pick it up. I tried to pick up the intensity a lot today, and hey, it didn’t work. There’s nothing I can really say about it, we just didn’t come to play.”

Williams did what he could, but this is Carrawell and Battler’s team. The two captains combined for just five secondhalf points, by far the lowest total of the season. Williams and Boozer recognized the problem, and both tried to step up.

Boozer recovered from an awful start to score 21 points, while Williams dished out 13 assists, tying his career high.

Nate James, meanwhile, showed no signs of a recent illness and went off for 20 points. And while all three tried to emerge as Battier and Carrawell’s replacement, it did not happen. The Blue Devils live and die by Carrawell and Battier.

“We both struggled,” Carrawell said.

“Jason and Carlos and Nate, they almost pulled it through. If myself or Shane come up with a couple of plays, maybe we pull out this game.

“It was a tough day for me and Shane.”

Carrawell and Battier know that they must carry this team, a responsibility they have embraced all year. But a key question has been raised in the past two weeks, and resonated Saturday.

How long can they keep it up?

Battier and Carrawell average nearly SHANE BATTIER scored just 12 points on 4-of-11

his finger on it, he knows he doesn’t like the feeling he felt in that locker room.

Both Battier and Carrawell will regroup next week, but the Blue Devils’ NCAA success rides solely on their shoulders.

“What you have to do, as the veterans, you can’t think tired,” coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “No question they’re playing a huge amount of minutes, it’s hot in here, they’re playing against a great team, there’s a lot of emotion, all those kids out there were tired.... You still have to find away to win.”

Boot-ing Duke; Another big day from Thornton lifts SJU

By VICTOR ZHAO The Chronicle

It isn’t supposed to happen A man doesn’t upstage Elvis at a blues concert, no one outshines Fred Astaire at a dance contest and certainly, no player should thrive against Duke in basketball.

But in the last two years, Bootsy Thornton has made a living out of terrorizing the Blue Devils.

After dropping a career-high 40 points against Duke last season in Madison Square Garden, Thornton poured in another 22 points Saturday, including the game-winning line drive from the right wing to snap Duke’s 26game winning streak in Cameron against non-conference opponents.

“We’re much better when we’re playing people that are actually much more talented than we are,” St. John’s coach Mike Jarvis said. “And Bootsy’s one of those guys that really needs that type of motivation, he doesn't get it in practice.

When he plays a team like Duke, he really concentrates and really gets after it.”

It certainly didn’t take Thornton long to get into the act Saturday. Thornton

drained two quick three-pointers, including one while being fouled by Jason Williams, to get the Red Storm rolling early. Even though he missed all four of his attempts from the charity

stripe in the first half, Thornton led all scorers with 13 points at the break.

But Thornton did more than just score yesterday. The Baltimore native crashed the boards with abandon against the bigger Blue Devils. In addition to his game-high 22 points, Thornton hauled down a game-high 11 rebounds to boot.

“I just wanted to win,”Thornton said.

“If it takes me down there to get some rebounds, that’s what it takes. That’s what coach asked everybody to do, go

down there and rebound, and that's what we did tonight.”

Fitting on a night when the Red Storm cleaned up the offensive glass, the game-winner came after a St. John’s miss. Erick Barkley ran down Lavor Postell’s errant shot at the top ofthe key and found Thornton, who was more than happy to put the final dagger into the Blue Devils.

“I took down the long rebound, and I saw that he had his feet set,” Barkley said. “As soon as it left his hand, I knew it was good. Because he hits that shot nine times out of 10 in practice when he has his feet set and he’s by himself.

“I don’t think Duke wants to see him again.”

And to that, Mike Krzyzewski and the Blue Devils say a resounding “Amen!!”

Fifty-two point turnaround? Teasley is the difference for UNC CHAPEL HILL It’s probably safe to say the Blue Devils would much rather see Nikki Teasley in street clothes than in a basketball uniform.

One month after watching Duke humiliate her team by 43 points in Cameron, Teasley, who returned to the team three weeks ago following a personal leave, smoothly directed the Tar Heels’ attack in the return engagement in Carmichael Auditorium.

And just how much did Teasley mean to her team? Try 52 points and some sweet redemption.

Although Teasley’s numbers, 16points, six assists and five turnovers, were modest rather than eyepopping, her impact on the game can not be understated.

“They play with much more confidence now that Nikki is back, there’s no comparison in their level of confidence,” said Duke coach Gail Goestenkors.

Teasley set the tone on the game’s play, very first putting a stutterfake on step Georgia Schweitzer before hitting a fade-away 16-foot jumper. Never one to be shy about shooting or driving, Teasley posed a constant offensive threat when she had the ball.

In the first 10 minutes alone, found Teasley

Last month, by comparison, the Blue Devils didn’t have any reason to put a defender in the same zip code as Teasley’s replacement, Cherie Lea. “There’s no comparison [between Teasley and Lea],” Goestenkors said.

“When we played the first time, we didn’t guard Cherie. She scored 15 points, but we felt we’d rather have her score than everybody else. We were able to double team and get some help in other areas.

“With Nikki at the point, we have to go defend her and keep the ball out of her hands. We didn’t do a very good job of it, but it really extended our defense.”

Even when Teasley wasn’t knocking down her shots or assisting for baskets, she made her presence felt in other ways.

Early in the second half, Teasley put on a wicked cross-over move at the top

of the key that caused defender Sheana Mosch to lose her balance and fall to the floor. A few minutes later, Teasley received the ball in transition and flipped a fancy, no-look pass to Jacki Higgins that brought a few “oohs” and “aahs” from the crowd. Although Higgins’ layup was swatted by Rochelle

Parent, Teasley made it known to Duke that this was a different Carolina team than the one it had kicked to the side of the road earlier.

“She gives them a great deal of confidence,” Duke forward Lauren Rice said.

“She handles the ball for them. She sets up everything. She’s a junior now—so she knows the system really well. I think that’s the biggest thing I’ve noticed about this team—they feed off her. With the ball in her hands, they’re a good team, they’re a confident team.”

And that confidence grows immeasurably when the notorious erratic shooter begin knocking down open shots. Teasley gave the Tar Heels their biggest lead of the game up until that point at 46-41 with a long three-pointer from the right wing with 7:37 left, capping a 7-0 UNC run.

With under six minutes to go, Teasley briefly left the court with a cramp, but returned to the game two minutes later to finish off Duke. With her team up 53-50, Teasley spotted wide-open Juana Brown, who delivered the game’s knockout punch with a three-pointer.

“We wanted some payback, and it was oh-so-sweet today,” Brown said.

“Duke is a really great team, so this was just the confidence boost we wanted going into the ACC tournament.”

Brown is mistaken. Her team got the confidence boost it needed when Teasley traded in her black skirt for a pair of white shorts.

Men’s lacrosse cruises through season openers with 2 wins

By ADRIENNE MERCER The Chronicle

The opening weekend for the men’s lacrosse team was near perfection.

The fifth-ranked Blue Devils won both matches this weekend at Koskinen Stadium in easy fashion, defeating Ohio State 16-7 Saturday and Butler 14-10 yesterday to start out their season 2-0.

Duke’s defense dominated the entire game against Ohio State (0-1) and only allowed the Buckeyes two goals until the end of the third quarter, when

Mark Marion broke the scoring slump with 12:51 left.

Duke senior T.J. Duman dominated the game with a whopping eight points.

He scored his first goal 1:32 into the game and never slowed down, finishing with five goals on the game.

“We were the better team and we

knew it,” coach Mike Pressler said.

“There was no hesitation, no panic.”

In addition to Durnan, the Hartofilis brothers combined to score an additional seven points. Nick scored three goals and an assist, while Chris tallied two goals and an assist. The offense continued with Chris Kakel, who had four points off three goals and an assist.

Duke goal keeper Matt Breslin had 11 saves on the game.

Duke had a little harder time yesterday against No. 21 Butler (0-2), who tied the game on two different occasions in the first half. Although the game was tied 6-6 at the half, the Blue Devils came out in the end, outscoring the Bulldogs 8-4 in the second stanza.

“Ohio State played more of a zone defense while Butler played man-toman said junior attackman Greg Patchak. “[Assistant] coach [Joe] Alberici prepared us for this [weekend] so well that we just knew everything about their zone defense. I think we did a good job of keeping them where they were. There was no hesitation, we knew that it was just a matter of time.”

Patchak scored four goals in a span of just five minutes to break a 7-7 third ”

quarter tie, while Nick Hartofilis added two more goals of his own.

“I was very proud of our guys, even though we go down 6-7 in the third quarter, our players showed great poise,” Pressler said. “We said it was going to be 60 minutes to take them out and it took us three quarters. In the third quarter, we just pulled away and the game was over.”

The Bulldogs had a in the second quarter, led by senior Mike Regan, who finished with four goals.

Butler held the ball and used up a lot of the clock and outscored the Blue Devils 4-1 in the second quarter. But once the Blue Devils got the ball back in the third, THE BLUE DEVILS jumped out to a 2-0 start this weekend, scoring a combined 30 points in their two victories. they didn’t look back.

Six-and-a-half innings into the final game of a Cincy 7 three game set at historic Jack Coombs Field between the baseball team and Cincinnati, the weekend was a complete failure for the Blue Devils.

The Blue Devils dropped the opener 3-0 on Friday and suffered a demoralizing 3-2 loss in a 12-inning game Saturday.

So with two-and-a-half innings remaining Sunday, the Blue Devils were down 6-1 and on the verge of being swept.

But the Blue Devils scored nine runs in the seventh and eighth to take home the 10-7 win and redeem themselves for the two losses.

“Taking a win today makes me feel a little better,” rookie coach Bill Hillier said. “Coming into the weekend, I felt we were good enough to take three from them, and you hope to get two every weekend.”

Ryan Caradonna opened the bottom of the seventh with a single. Freshman catcher Troy Caradonna followed his brother to the plate and ran the count to three balls and a strike before blasting a two-run homer over the rightcenterfield fence.

“The guy had been pitching me outside all day,” said Caradonna. “I finally got a 3-1 pitch. He put it over the middle of the plate, and I hit it hard.”

Following the homerun, the Blue Devils loaded the bases with no outs, but were unable to capitalize on the opportunity. Duke finished the inning Duke

down 6-3.

But what the Blue Devils were unable to do in the seventh, they did brilliantly in the eighth.

The inning opened with a David Mason single. Jeff Becker was hit by a pitch and Ryan Caradonna came to the plate. Caradonna grounded the ball towards the firstbaseman, setting up an almost certain double play.

But the firstbaseman hobbled the bail and all three runners were safe.

‘That was a huge error for them,” said Hillier. ‘That opened up the floodgates. We have not gotten too many breaks all season. I think that’s the only error they made all weekend. Definitely when he made that error, I knew we had a chance to win the ballgame.”

After the error, Troy Caradonna slammed the ball up the middle to score two runs and pull Duke within one at 6-5.

A pair of walks loaded the bases and evened the game at 6-6. Then Kevin Kelly came to bat with the bases loaded, and Kelly hammered a double to the left-centerfield fence, clearing the bases and giving the Blue Devils a 9-6 lead.

Duke scored its final run of the inning on a suicide-squeeze bunt from Mason, sealing the 10-7 victory.

“Coming in and scoring seven in the bottom of the eighth to pull the game out, that’s huge after you lose a couple of tough games,” Hillier said. “We lost a 12-inning game 3-2 and came back to get 12 hits.

“We definitely stepped it up a notch. We would like to have taken two, but our guys battled, and they played hard. That’s all I can ask for at this point.”

of agriculture. Recently, Alan Greenspan testified before Congress about the new economy by outlining some of its salient new features. Although he was not forecasting doom for our economic way of life, he did mention his profound concern regarding certain developments, growing structural “imbalances” that may threaten the engine of prosperity that has driven our economy, The problems facing agriculture in this country can be seen as a metaphor for the problems facing the economy: deep structural rifts that cannot be sufficiently addressed within the framework of the existing system.

Wes Jackson is a scientist who has dedicated his life to developing sustainable agriculture; he has a unique perspective on the prosperity of American farming.

has called the “wealth effect.” He describes it as a “problem” where a “pickup in productivity” and rising income levels tend to “create even greater increases in aggregate demand than in potential aggregate supply.” This means that the more we can produce, the more money we can make, which, in turn, makes us want more than we can realistically provide.

The “wealth effect” means that the average American overconsumes; he is enticed to spend more money due to his “irrational exuberance” and euphoria over possible returns from the stock market.

Greenspan explained that the Federal Reserve has consistently been raising interest rate —and will continue to do so—to avert the possible negative consequences of the “wealth effect.” He measures the negative effects of this phenomenon in terms of possible damage to the economy. But over-consumption causes other problems, such as environmental degradation, increasing George w. Susm,

global disparities in wealth and the spiritual decay of a materialist society.

This “wealth effect” is best understood as “poisoning” our future, not just

exhibiting “growing imbalances.”

I agree that wealth creation should be the objective of the economy. But creating wealth cannot simply be understood as making many tangible “things.” The type of wealth created by this type of extractive economy is not sustainable, and it creates the mentality of hyper-consumption. Instead of the “wealth effect,” it could well be called the “degradation effect” or the “self-immolation effect.”

The type of economy we should be trying to create is one based on cultivating those aspects of community that produce the highest quality of life; unfortunately, this cannot be done in an economy whose only impetus is avarice, and whose only “effect” is a self-destructive one.

WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN declare their candidacy Monday, Monday WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN It has been a sad week here in the Gothic Wonderland. Mike “Silky Smooth” Dunleavy came down with with mono and could be out for the rest of the season. WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN would like to apologize to everyone here for this senseless tragedy. We don’t know what came over us. We should have been thinking about the good of the team, but all we thought of was ourselves. And without Mike, Duke lost a scorcher to a cocky young St John’s club Saturday afternoon.

Of course, WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN were out there this weekend with our fellow students in K-ville, and we were happy to see Coach K make a guest appearance Friday night. Coach asked all the Crazies to leave the much-maligned Erick Barkley and the rest of the Red Storm alone at Saturday’s game. First of all, any team named after menstrual innuendo is fair game, but that is beside the point. Asking Duke students not to make fun of the opposing team is like asking people from Appalachia not to bet on cockfights. Sure, it sounds good, but it just doesn’t have the support of the people, Apparently, Coach K believes the NCAA rules are unfair and outdated, so he has been one of the most vocal supporters of a new proposal that would pay athletes workstudy money for the time they spend on the field or court, However, Andy Borman and Ryan Caldbeck have asked if this stipend could be extended to cover the time spent running errands and washing their teammates’ cars.

But that is not the end of Coach ICs activism. To protest the NCAA’s investigation ofBarkley, Coach K has decided to make a symbolic gesture by exchanging his own brand-new Range Rover for Barkley’s Ford Expedition, reenacting the alleged violation that started this mess. In a completely unrelated note, Barkley is unhappy at St. John’s and will soon be transferring to Duke. In an equally unrelated note, WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN may be fired if we don’t stop making libelous statements about the basketball team or if we give more members of the team mono (sorry again about that). Coach K and his boys are, after all, the cocks of the walk around here, and you can’t step on their toes.

The only people who have been whining more than Coach K are the folks in the Asian Students Association.

Last year, we voted

for Lisa

Zeidner because she looked pretty cute on her fliers...

Brian Lee’s letter to the editor complaining that The Chronicle failed to cover the Lunar New Year Festival which Lee says celebrates Asians racial identity—really hit home with us. WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN, ever concerned with issues of racial sensitivity (just ask Orlando Melendez) attended the festival, and would like to make reparations for The Chronicle’s grave oversight, The festival was pretty cool, but we didn’t think it covered a wide enough spectrum of Asian culture. Where were the Asian coeds in Catholic schoolgirl outfits? Why would no one play Pokemon with us? The whole festival seemed pretty half-cocked, but there was a pretty cool —

martial arts demonstration, and since we never miss a chance for some good old fashioned bashing of The Chronicle, we agree with most of Lee’s complaints. We think Phil Tinari said it best in his letter to the editor in Friday’s paper when he claimed Lee’s argument served “a globalized technocratic bourgeoisie.” Wow. We are not sure if a globalized technocratic bourgeoisie is good or bad, but we sure think it sounds cool.

During the Lunar New Year Festival’s brief intermission—during which several disillusioned members ofthe ASA showed offthe ancient samurai rite of harakiri—we looked over the list of candidates for president of Duke Student Government. We wanted to decide whom to endorse because we know all too well the tremendous power our words wield here at the University. Last year, we voted for Lisa Zeidner because she looked pretty cute on her fliers, but this year there is no clear-cut choice. Mike Lieberman says he’s ‘The Candidate with Vision,” but, as far as we can tell, none of the other candidates are blind. Jordan Bazinsky seems OK, but we already made up our minds not to vote for anyone shorter than Lisa Zeidner.

We tossed about the idea of running ourselves, but apparently we weren’t hanging around the Public Policy building the day they handed out applications.

There is probably a bylaw against people with classes on Science Drive running anyway, so it looks like it’s write-in campaign time. So vote for WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN. Or don’t—we really could care less.

Either way, someone will win, nothing will happen, and somewhere, it will be cocktail hour.

WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN would like to apol-

ogize to NASTYMAN’s father, the fly master for

making jokes about-Asian stereotypes.

Holod believes he can learn president’s job in 2 days �HOLOD from page I

die that thin line between making a joke and being a joke.”

His top priority is revising the alcohol policy to bring unmonitored kegs back to West Campus. Administrators will rely heavily on the DSG president as they continue to assess the state of drinking on campus, and Holod feels he will be the best representative during those

conversations.

“I really believe that it is the alcohol policy that is putting pressure on people to drink, and it’s the alcohol policy that is putting students in the hospital,” said Holod, vice president and former secretary of Pi Kappa Alpha and the only fraternity member in the race. By eliminating kegs from most parties and clamping down on open distribution, he said, Duke forces drinking into dorm rooms and encourages students to take shots of hard liquor—which leave no tell-tale cups.

“I love beer, and I can’t drink enough beer to go to detox...,” Holod said. “If they bring kegs back, bring beer back to West Campus and get hard liquor back into the bars where it belongs, then students would be a lot safer.”

Jeanine Atkinson, the University’s substance abuse specialist, agreed that drinking shots is more dangerous—because the alcohol is consumed so quickly. But, she said, “I don’t think the policy is making people do shots. I think people do shots because they want to get the buzz, and they want to get it quickly... I don’t think the problem can be blamed on one cause or one policy.”

Still, Holod insists that allowing more beer will drastically improve so-

dal life on West Campus by encouraging parties and responsible drinking.

Holod also takes issue with the Honor Code in its current form. Specifically, he argued that it is hypocritical to insist that students behave honorably when the dean’s excuse policy does not trust them to decide when they are too sick for class.

‘The University wants to talk about an honor code. Well, that swings both ways,” said Holod, who suffered from a stomach flu two weeks ago. “And if the University is not willing to trust my judgment about when I’m sick, then what is honor?”

Although administrators decided last year to maintain the dean’s excuse policy, Honor Council chair Matthew Baugh said changing the policy remains one of his group’s top priorities. ‘What DSG as a body could actually do [to change the policy], I’m not sure...,” said Baugh, a Trinity junior. “But the increased exposure could certainly help.”

Holod also pointed to the annual review policy for fraternities and selective houses as an example of the University’s refusal to trust students. Under the annual review, groups must prove that they have engaged in requisite activities like community service.

“It’s kind of a kick in the face, the annual review. And every year, the Office of

Student Development likes to kick greeks down and kick sand in their faces,” he said. ‘The Office of Student Development exists to make my life hell.”

Holod gives voice to a vast array of traditional student gripes, ranging from the parking situation to the high price of bottled water in the Lobby Shop. This characteristic, he said, makes him suit-

What is the most important problem facing the University?

"The alcohol policy is the most important thing, if you ask me."

What is your top priority?

"1 want student to know that someone is fighting for them to have fun What is the role of DSG? "I think everyone in DSG has really good intentions.... But I think they're people who want to be involved in public policy in the future. And they don't realize that DSG doesn't do anything; DSG is not like Congress.... I hope to bring realism back to student government."

Ed to be a new kind of DSG president—one that is particularly attended to student concerns and willing to present them to the administration.

Despite his outsider status, Holod thinks he will easily master the skills needed to be an effective leader who

work's well with the legislature and his vice presidents. “I can learn everything I need to know to be DSG president in two days, guaranteed,” he said. “I could probably train a monkey at the same time to do my typing.”

That view point will likely seem laughable to many in DSG. Tm sorry I cannot comment right now, I’m busy training my monkey,” joked Rusty

Shappley, a Trinity senior who has served as executive vice president for the past two and a half years. “In all seriousness, my platform for the past two years stressed the importance of experience. Although not absolutely critical, experience with anything you’re about to begin is very valuable.”

But Holod feels his love for the school will guide his leadership and make him a popular with fellow DSG members and the student body in general. Tve never had a bad experience at Duke. But I’ve had experiences that aren’t as good as they should have been,” he said. “I bitch a lot about it, but it’s because I care.”
