Union reps accuse Duke of unfair labor practices By MARKO DJUKANOVIC
LLEGATI
The Chronicle
Late last week, the International Union ofOperating Engineers, which has been attempting for more than a month to organize over 2,000 nurses at the Health System’s main campus, filed two charges that Duke Hospital’s management has engaged in unfair labor practices. The first of the charges filed with the National Labor Relations Board alleges that administrators solicited grievances only weeks before the union vote in order to discourage union activity and undermine union support.
DREW KLEIN/THE CHRONICLE
Away they g0... For this University graduate and thousands of her colleagues, commencement weekend represented a time for reflection and celebration.
The second alleges that hospital management increased benefits intending similar results. Union organizers said hospital officials discontinued mandatory overtime and on-call duty in many departments and also implemented a 2 percent salary raise on top of the annual increases. Such activities are illegal because they undermine the union’s support by placating the employees into believing these promises will be kept. The labor charges could bring serious consequences for the hospital; if the NLRB finds the allegations were serious enough, the board could immediately approve the nurses’ union without a vote. On the other hand, ifthe NLRB finds the charges to be false and harmful to the Hospital’s position, it could force a second unionization vote to be held. “Based on the information that comes to me and my knowledge of what I feel is a violation under the act, there

violations,” said lUOE spokesperson David Miller. He said a third charge was filed Monday and added that more charges will be filed later, but refused to comment further. But Chief Nursing Officer Mary Ann Crouch noted that there is a difference between the management doing its job and committing unfair have been
labor practices.
“As chief nurse, since last summer my priorities have been to address the staff’s issues,” she said. ‘These changes are the product of that commitment.” Crouch said she feels hospital management is stuck in a catch-22. If it continues working with the staff to address their concerns, there will be accusations of unfair labor practices. If it does nothing, the union points to officials’ inability to address the issues at hand. The union still plans to hold the nurses’ unionization vote June 2 and 3. “We want to make sure we have a fair election and that’s why we’re doing See UNION on page 21 >■
Stanford official will succeed Adams Religion scholar, As vice president, Sally Dickson will lead the Office of Institutional Equity teacher dies at 75 By JAIME LEVY The Chronicle
After a year-long national search, Sally Dickson of Stanford University has been named the University’s next vice president for institutional equity, President Nan Keohane announced late last week Dickson, currently the director of campus relations at Stanford, will take office when vice president Myma Adams steps down June 30. At Stanford, Dickson oversees five offices, including the Sexual Harassment Policy Office and the Office for Multicultural Development, which has jurisdiction over compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The Office of Institutional Equity at Duke, created by Keohane in 1995, is re- Sally Dickson sponsible for monitoring race- and genderbased harassment, improving workplace culture and ensuring ADA compliance. “One of the things I am excited about and that attracted me to Duke is the level of commitment to issues of diversity that just seem to be a part of the Duke fabric,” said Dickson, who was chosen from a pool of more than 70 applicants. Dickson emphasized the importance of ensuring that OIE, its mission and its goals are a visible and long-lasting part of University life.
“When we talk about the issue of diversity, it is a continuum. It is not something you can do for one month, one year, two years, three years and say, ‘OK, it’s done...,”’ said the New York City native. Under Adams, OlE’s structure was heavily criticized for being too disjointed, but Dickson acknowledged decentralization as a dilemma inherent in OlE’s purpose. “That is a huge tax on one office...,” said Dickson, who earned her law degree at Rutgers University. “You want to make sure we can deliver all the services to this huge
community.” Although Dickson has not given thought to any specific changes she will make to OIE, she said she is developing a general vision for the office. “I’d really like to look at creating a Duke community that not only respects differences but also [one where! people can recognize similarities, things we have in common—trying to bring the health system and campus to feel like part of one universe,” she said. Among its new services and priorities, said Keohane,
OIE under Dickson will work to provide more opportunities for minority employees to gain training and responsibility, help managers across Duke to provide sensitive and effective leadership and improve the campus

Key committees approve China trade law By TOM RAUM Associated Press
WASHINGTON In a big victory for President Bill Clinton and a blow for labor, legislation normalizing trade relations with China overwhelmingly won the support Wednesday of key committees in the House and Senate. The House Ways and Means Committee approved the measure 34-4 as previously undecided committee members flocked to support the administration. A showdown on the House floor was set for next week. Earlier, the Senate Finance Committee approved the legislation 18-1. The wide margin was expected in the Senate, where the overall measure has broad support. But in
the House, organized labor has waged a fierce campaign against the legislation, undercutting Democratic support. Despite the vote by the House committee with jurisdiction over trade matters, sponsors still expected a close floor vote. A majority of House Democrats continues to oppose the legislation. The bill would end 20 years of annual congressional votes on China’s trade status and grant Beijing “permanent normal trade relations,” the same low-tariff access to U.S. markets nearly every other nation in the world now enjoys. It also would ease China’s entry into the World Trade Organization, the Geneva-based organization that oversees international trade.

graduates to keep the faith Board OKs dorm, Dole urges Commencement honoree Andrew Young also shared wisdom with graduates approves budget By AMBIKA KUMAR The Chronicle
After saying goodbye to several trustees and administrators, the Board of Trustees also heard of the Campaign for Duke’s ongoing successes. By GREG PESSIN The Chronicle
Like commencement itself, the Board of Trustees’ commencement weekend meetings represented a series ofbittersweet farewells and longawaited successes. Randall Tobias, a 14-year board veteran who helped lead the University to national prominence, said his final farewell after serving three years as board chair. President Nan Keohane, who spoke to the trustees Friday, bid adieu to several trustees and the handful of top administrators, including Vice President for Student Affairs Janet Dickerson and Vice President for Institutional Equity Myma Adams, who retired or stepped down earlier this year. But as he has for several of the last meetings, Trustee Peter Nicholas, Campaign for Duke
In a Sunday speech that addressed issues ranging from technology to cynicism, former presidential candidate Elizabeth Dole urged Duke graduates to use their knowledge to pursue ideals and to have faith as they venture forth into the professional world. “In this age of satellite dishes, automated tellers and 500 channels... may I suggest that we frazzled humans have need of inspiration as well as information, and offaith to match our facts,” said the former American Red Cross president. Dole, Woman’s College ’5B, said that too often, Americans assume that the country’s founders intended to express a governmental hostility toward faith. She countered this commonplace by quoting Cardinal Joseph Bemadin: ‘To endorse a properly secular state,
which has no established ties to any religious institution, does not mean we should support a secularized society, one in which faith is reduced to a purely private role.” She added that the application of faith to life tests one’s character. “[One’s possessions! will rust away, wear away or depreciate, but your inner resources—character —must never tarnish,” she said. A person’s individuality must also be preserved, said Dole, expressing anger at the idea that society might try to label today’s generation of young people. “What is a label but a preconception brought to life?.... Replacing subtlety with stereotype, we rob citizens of their most precious possession—their individuality.” The former secretary of labor and oftransportation also commented on the progress of women and society since her time at the Woman’s College. “Duke in the ’sos was a great research institution that sometimes felt like a finishing school,” she said. For helping induce change, Dole thanked public figures such as Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter, Ladybird Johnson, her husband Bob Dole and Andrew Young, the civil rights leader and former congress member who also received an honorary degree at Sunday’s ceremony. “We have at last begun to honor promises we made to one another at the dawn of the republic,” she said. “We have demolished legal and cultural barriers that formerly mocked our democratic aspirations She concluded by telling students not to fall prey to cynicism. “Remember that life is not meant to be endured, but enjoyed. Retain your curiosity and though you may get wrinkles, you will never get old,” she said. During the speech, Dole was able to ignore loud screams from several Trinity graduates and one sign demanding that she “Tell us about Viagra.” She herself ”

added humor to the situation by beginning her speech with a few jokes. She said that she was flattered to speak at the commencement ceremony given that she was a “dropout from the Electoral College.” And upon referring to President Nan Keohane as “Madame President,” she added, “That does have a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? Oh well.” Student commencement speaker Holly Cooper, Trinity ’OO, spoke about free thought. She praised the University for fostering free thought and urged graduates to take advantage of this fact. “One commonality that all Duke students have is that we are educated in an environment that promotes individual free thought,” she said, urging fellow graduates to continue actively thinking once they leave Duke. Honorary degrees were bestowed on both Dole and Young, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Dole received a Doctorate of Humane Letters while Young received a Doctorate ofLaws. Young, also the former mayor of Atlanta, expressed optimism about the future, saying, “It is a wonderful world, and it is a wonderful time to be alive, and you lead us into the [next] century.”

Trauma Center hires more surgeons, still faces probation Although a state report praised the clinical care of trauma patients, it still found five procedural deficiencies
December, while the Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center’s trauma center in Winston-Salem was renewed for the maximum period of four years with no cited deficiencies. The site review team did praise Duke’s level of clinical care. ‘These are procedural issues,” said Kevin Sowers, senior associate chief operating officer, adding that Duke is a Level 1 trauma center because of its clinical research and its commitment to and excellence in clinical care. While Sowers agreed that Duke must maintain its Level 1 status and follow regulations, he also stressed that these procedural issues have no impact on trauma patients. Although officials expect that the $l.l million will resolve the cited surgeon deficiency, the investment will add financial strain as current managed care premiums do not cover such costs in trauma centers nationwide, said Sowers. “Because we are committed to the highest quality comprehensive trauma care... we will commit the necessary funds as we believe that our patients and the communities we serve expect and deserve nothing less,” CEO of Duke Hospital Mike Israel wrote in a letter to Pratt on May 8. “However... such investments are becoming increasingly difficult during these times of rapidly diminishing reimbursements.” “We understand [the hospital’s] concerns,” said Pratt. “The trauma centers are underfunded.”
By MARKO DJURANOVIC The Chronicle
In response to a report by the state Office of Emergency Medical Services, Duke University Hospital will invest $l.l million into putting five trauma surgeons on around-the-clock alert in the Trauma Center. Still, despite these changes, the North Carolina EMS Advisory Council recommended last week that Duke’s Level 1 trauma center be placed on a nine-month long probation. The actual decision on the matter will soon be made by the state Office of EMS. ‘The advisory council is advisory in nature; they take the staffrecommendation, review, and make a recommendation back to us,” said Drexdal Pratt, chief of the North Carolina OEMS. ‘The actual decision is taken in the office and will be forthcoming very soon,” he added. The OEMS staff found five deficiencies in their March 14 site review ofthe Duke Hospital’s trauma center. One was reversed after the team learned that an anesthesiologist can be called in by the paging system. These deficiencies included the following: Neither the attending trauma surgeon nor a post-graduate or senior surgical resident responded within 20 minutes to emergency notification, there was no published backup trauma surgeon schedule and four ofthe 15 emergency doctors did not have the required 20 hours ofcontinuing medical education. Prior to 1998, Level 1 status could only be either renewed or revoked. The
AMID THE BUSTLE in the Emergency Department, nurses confer over a patient’s information while doctors respond to an emergency call in the background. use of probation reflects a 1998 rule change allowing an intermediate remedy. “If the deficiencies involve patient care, it’s a matter of revocation, but if they are more procedural, revocation is too harsh,” said Pratt. “We needed something in between the two.” There are three levels oftrauma centers in North Carolina, based partially
on the medical specialists available. Level 1 is the highest and is held by five trauma centers in the state. The other four are located in medical centers in Winston-Salem, Charlotte, Chapel Hill and Greenville.

Women’s Studies gets $3 million
The Graduate Follow the family of John Snyder, Trinity ’OO, through commencement weekend Aldirectory?”
John Snyder, a Trinity senior himself, sat in his sweltering dorm room trying to locate a friend’s e-mail address as his family watched. Dressed in khaki pants, a blue buttondown and red tie, Snyder typed in his own name to check; indeed, according to the online database of Duke undergraduates, “John Snyder” no longer existed.
The Chronicle
In what may be the largest donation to women’s studies at a private university, Red Hat software company co-
founder Marc Ewing and wife Lisa Yun Lee—who received her Ph.D. from the University this year—have pledged to give almost $3 million to Duke’s Women’s Studies Program. “I don't know how the [gift] stacks up against others, but it’s my impression that it is surely among the largest gifts ever given for this purpose,” President Nan Keohane wrote in an e-mail. The money, totaling $2,990,000 will endow one professorship in the name of Jean O’Barr, current women’s studies chair, and five fellowships in the department. Lee said the fellowships will include a research fellowship, a teaching fellowship, a dissertation writing fellowship, a fellowship for men and women who are of “nontraditional age,” and a post-doctoral fellowship shared with the German department. “I am immensely pleased that there will be a permanent professorship to support scholarship on women to help students establish the integral links between learning, knowing and living,”
Of course, as they headed to the public policy studies luncheon and awards ceremony Saturday afternoon, the Snyder family still included one Duke student—not until Sunday would they become the proud parents and sister of a Duke graduate. Hailing from Beaver Falls, Pa., the Snyders have witnessed a graduation before: John’s older sister, Alison, from graduated Wheaton College in 1998. But there is at least one major difference between
the two events: Alison graduated with a class of about 500, as compared to John’s class of about 1,500. Still, some traditions remain. For example, in honor of John’s paternal grandfather, who passed away in
adults.
1994, both John and his father wore Old Spice aftershave to Alison’s graduation. Sure enough, Dr. David Snyder pulled his father’s jar of the splash out of his coat pocket: Both father and son wore the aftershave Sunday, too. “I’m running low, though I might have enough for a couple of weddings, a Nobel prize, maybe some grandkids,” joked John’s father before the ceremony.
O’Barr said in a statement. Lee recently received her Ph.D. from the Department of Germanic Languages and Literature but also participated in the Women’s Studies Program. ‘The Women’s Studies Program provided me with not only financial support, but also an inestimable amount of emotional and intellectual support during my years at Duke,” she wrote in an e-mail. “It is an amazing program that challenged me to think about both my research and teaching critically, ethically and within a social context.” See WOMEN’S STUDIES on page 20 �
“We’ll see in a few months how grown-up they stay,” she laughed. And John Snyder, now an official Duke alumnus, has some advice for those who follow him through the Gothic Wonderland. “Don’t be intimidated...,” he said. “Relax a little bit, don’t take things too seriously. But I think all seniors say that after they’ve been through it.”

“It’s been nice to have him here—he really loves it. It’s the only school he really applied t0...,” said John’s mother, Kathy. “They should hire him in the public relations office.” Actually, Snyder will be in Washington, D.C. starting in June. The political science and public policy studies double major landed a job with SRA, an information technology and systems integration consulting firm. During Sunday’s festivities, the family looked on proudly—with Mom snapping photos—as the crowd of seniors received their degrees. “It was a very impressive ceremony,” said Snyder’s father. “I get emotional very easily, but I will try not t0.... I embarrass my children.” The graduate, on ,the other hand, kept his cool throughout the ceremony, making snide comments about all the pomp and circumstance. “The whole conferring of degrees thing got a little tiresome,” he said. Still, he admitted, “It’s exciting just to see all the pageantry and everyone running around in their Harvard and Yale robes.” Kathy Snyder, now a parent of two college graduates, is not fazed by the fact that her two children are now

Reno advises law students to be open, accountable Recounting her own experiences, the attorney general reminded students to make good judgements and live with them By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle “I may be talking to a future attorney general.” U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno addressed 251 law school graduates Saturday night, recognizing that the soon-to-be lawyers were destined for bright careers. Throughout her speech, Reno emphasized the responsibilities of her profession as well as the legal and personal philosophies that have guided her public service career. “You shouldn’t be afraid to make mistakes. You must continue to do the best you can under the circumstances,” she said to the group of sweating graduates and their families in Cameron Indoor Stadium. “Be open and accountable.... Make your best judgment and be prepared to live with it. That’s what I did in Waco.” Reno, who has served as attorney
general since 1992, said her strong ideals and principles of democracy and justice have shaped her decision-making process throughout her 37-year career as a public servant. She added that she has relied upon these values especially in the past few weeks, as several controversies —from the Microsoft case to the Elian Gonzalez debates—heated significantly. “We must be prepared to focus our attention on communities. We can’t hide from disagreement,” she said. “We must reach out and understand that democracy is built on mutual respect.” Reno said her philosophies come from the great pride and passion she has for American law and democracy. “I love the 1aw.... I love good lawyers, not greedy and selfish lawyers, but lawyers who care,” Reno said. “I suggest to you that we have a special responsibility.... We must give [the lawj our best, and we must not take it for granted.”
Although Reno said she has striven to improve the American legal system, she admitted that there are still imperfections. “Too many people in America don’t have access to justice. To some the law isn’t worth more than the paper it’s written on,” she said. “I hope 37 years from now... each of you will still be using [the lawl for making America a better place.” Emphasizing prevention through equity and early education, Reno suggested targeting children to help end America’s culture of violence. “It’s prevention that makes a difference in the beginning,” she said. “Let us continue to talk to young people. They have so much to say and we have so much to learn.” Drawing upon her own experiences with gender discrimination, Reno said Americans must remain dedicated to See

Arts & Sciences professors hear new admissions stats Director of Admissions Christoph Guttentag said Curriculum 2000 has had a negligible impact on applications. By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle
DREW KLEIN/THE CHRONICLE
Not THE OATH OF OFFICE Elizabeth Dole, Woman’s College ’5B, received her second Duke diploma at Sunday’s Commencement Exercises. This degree, presented by President Nan Keohane, was a doctorate of humane letters. Former congressman Andrew Young also received an honorary degree.
Although the Class of 2004 will be the first governed by Curriculum 2000, the new system had little effect on their decision to come here, Director of Undergraduate Admissions Christoph Guttentag said at the May 4 meeting of the Arts and Sciences Council. “There is no evidence that it has been a problem,” Guttentag said of the new graduation requirements and course classifications. But it has changed the way his office presents the University to potential applicants. “I have been very pleased with how the new curriculum has allowed us to talk about Duke as an intellectual institution,” he said, noting that both in information sessions and in written material, his office has used Curriculum 2000 as an opportunity to emphasize the uniqueness and rigor of undergraduate academics. “A good number of students saw the old curriculum not as an opportunity for flexibility, but as away of getting out of something you don’t want to do,” he said. Although applicants may not have reacted to the differences in the new
curriculum, Guttentag said that the benefit stems from the environment that Curriculum 2000 creates. “My impression is that students and parents care not so much about the specifics of a curriculum, but whether a school has a vision for academics.” He also noted that, since the matriculation rate—the percentage of acceptees who end up attending the University—has been increasing, his office has been forced to accept 100 to 150 fewer students each ofthe last six years. Still, he said, Duke faces stiff competition for matriculants from what Gut-
tentag calls SHRYMP schools—Stanford, Harvard-Radcliff, Yale, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Princeton. “We just don’t do as well against SHRYMP schools. They will beat us on coming admitants 4 to 1,” he said. “I am not terribly pleased with the fact that we need to accept 3,600 students to get to 1,600. It’s not my ideal. It should be around 50 percent.” Applicants’ decisions, he said, usually come down to prestige, reputation
and the perceived quality of faculty—areas in which Duke is often seen as
trailing other elite universities. Attaining the prestige of a school like Harvard is a long-term project, he said. “I don’t really worry how we do against SHRYMP schools because there’s nothing I can do about it.” See A&S on page 24 P*

Genomics experts debate emerging ethical dilemmas By MATT ATWOOD The Chronicle
A group of six ethicists, researchers and other experts gathered May 1 in the Sanford Institute of Public Policy to discuss the ethical implications of the rapidly advancing science of genomics. An audience of about 200 attended the roundtable discussion entitled “Something Old, Something New: Does Genomics Pose New Ethical Questions?” Most panelists agreed that there were new aspects to the moral dilemmas raised by genomics—the study of the DNA sequences that define an organism’s genetic code. But the majority of the panel said the same questions had been raised throughout history, only in different forms. “It’s the same old great big questions about who we are,” said Amy Hall, an assistant professor of theological ethics at the Divinity School. The discussion began with the question of whether to test for genes—such as those for breast cancer—that cause diseases with few or no treatment options. “Novel technologies bring with them
a certain degree of ignorance,” said Dr. Michael Rogers, a senior member of the
Forward Studies Unit of the European Commission, a policy think tank for the European Union’s governing body. “We have to accept that ignorance and find out what we can do with it.” Dr. Jeremy Sugarman, the director of Duke’s Center for the Study of Medical Ethics and Humanities, explained that many women felt pressured into being tested for breast cancer genes and he added that to undergo testing is a decision made for a woman’s entire family. This, he said, raises a new ethical question. “The ancient dictum of ‘Know thyself becomes a question:... ‘Ought we know ourselves?”’ asked Sugarman, also a professor ofmedicine and philosophy. But not all the panelists agreed that new information leads to drastically different ethical questions. “Genetic information, by its very nature, being inherited, tells us about our families,” said Dan Bums, the director of US. Discovery Genetic. “We know that diseases run in families. I think the ethical questions are very similar to what they were before.”
LIZ PRADA/THE CHRONICLE
AMY HALL, an assistant professor of theological ethics at the Divinity School, explains her take on the ethics behind one of Duke’s newest interdisciplinary research endeavors.
Hall said she was concerned that people would be pressured into genetically testing fetuses, then aborting those that did not meet societal expectations. “It’s expected that you will undergo certain levels of testing when you’re carrying a fetus,” she said, adding that she
realized that the choice to abort would be an individual decision. Still, she worried that ifit became normal to abort disabled or otherwise “imperfect” fetuses, having such children would be as hard as trying “to drive a horse down your local street.” See GENOMICS on page 23

Academic Council rewrites resolution about master plan By KELLY WOO The Chronicle
At its last meeting of the year May 11, the Academic Council heard tributes to outgoing chair Robert Mosteller and rewrote a resolution concerning the final master plan. The resolution incited some contentious debate, particularly about faculty input on and implementation of specific projects. Some members were worried that the resolution did not provide an explicit process by which faculty would review master plan projects. Professor Barbara Shaw and fellow chemistry colleagues pointed to the recent approval of a new parking lot next to the Gross Chemistry Building. She said that chemistry faculty were not consulted about the parking lot, even though it would significantly change the landscape around the building. Shaw expressed worry that the same lack of input could occur with master plan projects. Mosteller and Executive Vice President Tallman Trask noted that faculty members would sit on a new
oversight committee and would retain control through the Committee on Facilities and Environment. Other faculty echoed Shaw’s concerns, and some indicated they had not even seen the plan’s final draft. “The final draft only came two weeks ago,” Shaw said, which was “not enough time for faculty input, student input.” Hosteller, however, noted that the Academic Council had seen other drafts ofthe master plan throughout the entire year and that multiple copies of the final plan had been available. Professor of Immunology Jeff Dawson, CFE co-chair, emphasized that the resolution only supported the mechanism of the master plan. “We’re using this as a reference point and we’re not endorsing specific plans,” said the professor of immunology. Faculty members then quibbled over the wording of the resolution, retooling it slightly toward the end of the debate. Additionally, Provost Peter Lange gave the annual update on black faculty development. Though the University has had some success in recruitment, the provost cautioned against premature celebration. “We are slightly ahead of the path we set for our-

spm
selves in 1993,” Lange said. “There are, however, significant areas of concern.” One ofthese concerns, the provost noted, is that the increase in black faculty is largely non-tenured. He announced that his office would help departments bear the salary burden of new black faculty for five years rather than just three. Votes on the creation of a new Ph.D. program in biology and on the University’s policy on intellectual property rights were also on the agenda. Neither topic elicited any debate and both passed unanimously. IN OTHER BUSINESS: At the beginning of the meeting, President Nan Keohane and the provost paid tribute to outgoing chair Mosteller, a professor of law, who has led the council for the past two years. They praised his diplomacy, his zest for faculty input and his penchant for writing extensive “think pieces.” Academic Council members also heard an update from the Commons committee. The committee will be implementing changes to the Faculty Commons, which will be refurbished next year as part of a test phase.

Foundation gives SI.SM to support minority pre-meds By MARKO DJUKANOVIC The Chronicle
Beginning in June 2001, a five-year, $1.5 million grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation—compounded by $2.8 million from Duke—will create the Duke University Summer Biomedical Science Institute. The residential summer program will offer 125 college freshmen, sophomores, juniors and some post-graduates—all underrepresented minorities—academic preparation, clinical exposure and other skills needed to compete for medical school acceptance. The faculty will be se-
lected from Duke’s academic staff while resident advisers and teaching assistants will be third-year medical students either at Duke or elsewhere; much of the institute’s staff will be composed ofminorities. Currently, there is a very small group of physicians of color, explained Dr. Brenda Armstrong, associate dean for medical education admissions. The latest economic expansion has resulted in a shrinking pool of talented applicants for medical school. The groups most affected by this decline, she added, are the underrepresented minorities. “If there’s a small pool to start out
with, then [this decline] is exaggerating a problem that’s already present,” she said. ‘The number of URMs going to college and then med school gets too small as a result.” Boasting a completely web-based curriculum, the institute will offer courses in biophysics, advanced biology, calculus and chemistry. The institute will also include courses in the basic sciences, written and oral communication, computer competency, supervised patient contact, exam preparation and ethical issues in medicine. ‘The summer institution is indeed a
significant step in increasing the pool of minority applicants for medical school, at Duke and elsewhere,” President Nan Keohane wrote in an e-mail. “We are delighted to have the support of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and* the leadership of Dean Armstrong and her colleagues in proposing this important endeavor.” In conjunction with the Association of American Medical Colleges, the RWJ Foundation has funded eight similar programs at schools including Yale University, Vanderbilt University and Baylor College of Medicine.

Baker declined to cite a reason for the recommendation, saying she would rather wait until the process is complete. The committee will likely hand down a decision in the next two weeks. Benjamin Ward, associate dean for residential life and chair of the ARC, declined to comment.
Trustees approve site for Nasher Museum of Art: The Board of Trustees officially approved a

Construction of the $l5 million museum, which will replace the Duke University Museum of Art, is expected to begin next year.
EPA administrator speaks at environment school graduation: Environmental Protection Agency Director Carol Browner spoke to graduates of the Nicholas School of the Environment Saturday morning, warning them that public and congressional support for environmental protection is deteriorating. “Rather than modernizing our environmental laws based on what we have learned over the last 30 years, we have seen too many in Congress suggesting that pollution standards should only be set when the benefits ofreducing the pollution outweigh the costs of reducing pollution,” she said. Instead of arguing over such issues, policy makers should provide leadership in the area of environmental protection. “To fail to act now is to leave the future gen-
erations an irreversibly changed environment, a permanently altered Earth,” she said.
Lemurs get new house: Early this month, the University opened a $530,000, 5,000-square-foot, 24bedroom winter home for its 60 to 75 lemurs at the primate center. Part of a $4.1 million project to improve the lemurs’ living conditions and reduce the cost of caring for them, the building is equipped with central heating, recessed lighting and an alarm system that automatically phones to report malfunctions.
Trustees reappoint Burness: The Board of
Trustees has appointed Senior Vice President for Public Affairs and Government Relations John Bumess to a third five-year term. The reappointment follows an extensive review by a committee chaired by University Distinguished Service Professor Leonard Spicer, a biochemist.

Secretary Allison Haltom’s position Saturday. With the title comes the duties of planning and organizing baccalaureate services and graduation, the annual opening convocations and the annual Founders’ Day celebration. Haltom’s office will now coordinate vice-presidential level searches. Haltom, Trinity 72, has worked at Duke since 1986 in various positions ranging from assistant director of admissions to director of the office of annual giving.

Duke fund raising draws big bucks, big rankings By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle
Coming just short of $331 million, the University ranked third in fund raising by colleges and universities, according to a survey conducted by the Center for Aid to Education. The survey, whose data represents giving during 1998-1999, placed only Harvard and Cornell universities above Duke, with $451 million and $341 million respectively. “Duke's ranking on the CAE list is a source of pride for us,” wrote President Nan Keohane in an e-mail. “We have been improving our record each year with the progress ofthe campaign, thanks to the hard work and generous support of many different people.” The CAE study, which used data from 938 institutions, cited the unprecedented strength of financial markets as the primary reason for the continued success of most fund raising efforts and noted that many schools’ gift totals—including Duke’s—reached a
record high. “Our efforts in fund raising have never been stronger than right now,” said Peter Vaughn, director of communications and donor relations. “We broke our own record. We are absolutely pleased.” He added that the University may surpass $331 million for the 19992000 year. Unlike Duke, the report said, many schools saw their smallest annual increases in gift-giving rates. This decline and the possibility of an economic slowdown, however, were not a major concern for University officials. Still, Vaughn half-joked, “When you’re in the middle of a capital campaign as we are, you’re worried until you have all the money.” Despite last year’s success, the University will continue to focus its efforts on certain types of givers that have traditionally been weaker sources than others. Most notably, individual givers at Duke lag behind both other types of donors and similar giving at other schools.
According to the report, gifts from alumni made up a little over one-seventh of the total giving; other institutions’ alumni gave nearly half of all the money earned during the survey period. “Compared to a lot of our peer institutions, we have a really young alumni body,” Vaughn said. “As the body matures so will the alumni giving. [Alumni giving] needs to continue to grow and we expect it to.” Keohane noted that the University has made substantial gains in alumni giving since the beginning of the Campaign for Duke in 1996. “Alumni are crucial for the campaign. Remember that at the beginning of the campaign only one-third of our gifts came from individuals, in any categories,” Keohane wrote. “We are very pleased that this number has steadily increased, as well.” Many donors choose to give money through family See GIVING on page 24

have some good news and some bad news. First, the good news: Anyone with a little bit of money and recognition these days can make a movie. The bad news? Anyone with a little bit of money and recognition these days can make a movie. Why is that bad? Take Kevin Spacey's little pet project, The Big Kahuna, a movie that drags on tonelessly for most of its 90 minutes. I'm pretty sure that no one else was clamoring to have this movie made, so Mr. Spacey footed the bill. After all, he's popular now—for good reason —and has wads of cash piling up around his Oscar statuette. But sometimes smart people indulge themselves too much. Ninety minutes does not sound like much to endure, but what if I told you that the story is a lot like Waiting for Godot, but with salesmen? Philosophical salesmen. Holed up in a hotel conference room. It could be deeply profound—or profoundly boring. In The Big Kahuna, don't expect anything more than a series of talking heads. There are only three characters here, and they do little more than wax philosophical. Three industrial lubricant marketing representatives meet at a lame conference in Wichita, Kansas, to snag a promising account with a big-time executive. Industrial lubricant? That's enough to make anyone feel a little reflective about life. Or suicidal. The three stooges wait all night for this "big kahuna" to show up at their marketing soiree. In the meantime, they have meaningful exchanges about life. Phil (Danny Devito) is an aging, reluctant optimist with a tendency to wade into indulgent monologues and whimsical misting of the eyes. Larry (Kevin Spacey) is a clever but annoyingly blunt sales veteran with a fetish for women in business suits. It's an indulgent role for Spacey too, because he gets to show us how smartly glib and droll he can be with all of his lines. Then there is Bob (Peter Facinelli), a neophyte in the salesworld. He also happens to be

entertainment world, that means he's overly righteous and judgmental, and somewhere in the film he will have to be cured of those ailments with a little help from his cohorts. I might mention that the saintly Phil also reads Penthouse, but that might be too judgmental of me too. The Big Kahuna's problems arise from bring adapted from a stage play by Roger Rueff. While there's nothing inherently wrong with that, Rueff apparently didn't make any changes when he reworked his play
for the screen. We see three people stuck in a room for the better part of the movie, and it's claustrophobic. Most of the shots are of the actors' faces, which is even more stifling. Couple that with dark, grainy cinematography and you'll wonder what kind of cinematic hole you've entered. 1 prayed in vain that one of the characters would at least walk outside. Some of the dialogue is admittedly compelling, but the order of the day was apparently for pop-psychology, self-help claptrap about character and various other life lessons. Is Larry honest or just rudely blunt? If you can't decide, there's a monologue to help you out. Mr. Rueff is an engineer turned playwright, and The Big Kahuna is a strong argument for disallowing chemical engineers from writing plays. Industrial lubricant indeed!□

Snow is a multidisciplinary performance that inspires both thought and laughter.
By Norbert Schiirer Archipelago Theater Company's new production was conceived over a year ago, but Snow—which premieres Friday night in Reynolds Theater —will certainly make sense to Triangle residents after this winter's blizzard. Ellen Hemphill, the show's director and coauthor (and known to Duke audiences most recently as the director of The Crucible), argues that with the advent of snow, "the normal landscape changes drastically, and the same happens in life." Anyone present in Durham this January can confirm that observation. In Snow, the fourth collaboration of Hemphill and Nor Hall, the Martin family of four siblings and three spouses comes together in upstate New York during the winter after their mother's death. The plot starts with a dispute over the family farm, but soon concentrates on the relationships between the individuals, their "underworld." The performance tries to capture "the mood that snow and family complexity create," Hemphill says. Hemphill explains that her characters are all "in one family, but have separate concerns and

Speak up The University needs to reevaluate the role of the student speaker at graduation and the process used to select the honoree
If
you are holding an event outdoors on a hot, sunny Sunday in May, make every minute of it worthwhile. Duke’s annual commencement ceremony, held at Wallace Wade Stadium, traditionally features a speech given by a graduating senior. And each year, the student speech sounds more like a pregame pep rally and less like a thoughtful reflection on an issue that has touched the speaker’s life. All in all, the pep-rally style student speech amounts to a tiring exercise and is no more residual than the sunburn that accompanies it.
The concept of having a student graduation speech is a noble one, if the speech is interesting, well-delivered and —most importantly—is
entertaining and thought-provoking. Unfortunately, the speaker selection process seems to weed out these kinds of students. The first step is to change the membership ofthe selection committee. Currently, the student members of the committee—which also features several administrators —are selected by Duke Student Government. This results in a committee made up ofnon-legislators as opposed to a solid group of student leaders. Student leaders, such as those who serve on the Intercommunity Council, have more insight and will likely choose a more thoughtful speaker. Furthermore, the committee should consult professors and work to recruit a strong pool of applicants. The application process itself is also flawed. Applicants are asked to submit their speech in advance to the committee; finalists are then interviewed. The required submission of the speech is unreasonable and antithetical to the open, permissive environment of a college campus. If the ritual purpose of commencement is to “welcome students into the company of educated men and women,” Duke should trust these educated students and not require the speaker to submit his or her entire address in advance. Out of respect, the University does not censor the keynote graduation speech. Unfortunately, University officials do not offer this level of respect to the student speaker. While it might seem like a good idea to screen a speech in advance in order to be certain the student is an apt writer, this policy deters students who might have more unique perspectives from even applying. Instead, students should be asked to submit an abstract of their speech. An abstract would facilitate easy decision-making but at the same time would give the writer greater freedom to mold their words into a final product. Once a speaker is selected, the committee ought to help the student prepare to give the speech as well. Perhaps the student should be required to consult with a professor who teaches public speaking. With a few procedural changes and a smarter selection method, a student speech can be interesting and worthwhile.

Elizabeth Dole addresses graduates Faith and a strong sense of character are essential qualities for the leaders of the 21st century
Excerpts from Elizabeth Dole’s May 14,2000, commence-
ment
address:
Thank you so much for that wonderful, warm welcome. I am so grateful for the honor bestowed on me today, which I will cherish a lifetime. Thank you, Madam President, for that more than generous introduction. We’re all so grateful for your strong and able leadership. Madam President—that does have a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? Oh, well. When the Class of 2000 invited me to be a part ofthis special day, I was both touched and flattered. After all, I come before you as a recent dropout from the Electoral College! My husband likes to compare a commencement speaker to the corpse at a funeral; You don’t really expect him to say anything, but you can hardly hold the ceremony without him. Well, this morning, I feel anything but funereal... For the Duke family, this millennial commencement marks a historic crossroads on the calendar. Seventy-five years have passed since President Keohane’s predecessors vowed to “develop our resources, increase our wisdom, and promote human happiness.” One might think a 75th anniversary would impose the heavy weight of time. On the contrary—such a dayreminds us that youth, like idealism, is very much a state of mind—and that a university can never grow old so long as it nurtures the flame of innovation and curiosity. Here we are reminded that, while knowledge is important, wisdom is essential. And the ultimate wisdom is not to be found in the tidal wave of data that saturates our airwaves, our front pages, our modems and textbooks. The poet Robert Frost put it best when he said, “What we do in college is to get over our little mindedness.” It is in that same spirit that we gratefully pause to recognize instructors—in and out of the classroom—who have assisted countless Duke graduates to raise their sights and enlarge
their minds.... In a larger sense, this ceremony is an act offaith—a faith renewed whenever we step forward to redeem our time through a vision ofthings that ought to be. We are honored today by the presence of President Jimmy Cater, Rosalynn Carter and Lady Bird Johnson. As I have traveled this country and many places around the world, I see the positive difference that President and Mrs. Carter continue to make in the lives of others. Their deep faith has been an inspiration to me personally, and an example to countless millions. And like my own mother, Mrs. Johnson has combined tradition with trailblazing. No American has done more to introduce us to the beauties of nature, or remind us that we are all stewards of God’s creation.... Society, it has been said, is a partnership between the dead, the living and those yet to come. Consider the nation into which my mother was bom. At the start of the 20th century, the average life expectancy for an American man was 46 years; for a woman, 48 years. The telegraph system-internet of its day—strained to carry 63 million messages a year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average passed the 100 mark in January 1906. Foreign immigrants streamed through Ellis Island—the American front porch—at a rate of 100 per hour. Yet the Census Bureau didn’t even keep statistics on the number of Hispanics or Asian Americans.... Well, it’s easy to look back and laugh at so innocent a culture. Yet ifa great university teaches us nothing else, it is to be on guard against facile generalizations, some based on nothing more than nostalgia tinged with condescension. I know. As a member ofthe so-called Silent Generation, I can

Indeed, my first letter Partnership to appreciate just how much a committed unihome put my parents on notice that I intended to pursue a versity can do to enhance the health, advance the learning and promote the safety ofits neighbors. somewhat unconventional path. Meanwhile, we are told that change is the only constant. “I think it would be fascinating to leam aboutAmerican government, history in the making,” I told them.This was Yet, amidst so much change, it is critically important that not necessarily what they had in mind.

So why, you ask, do so many current opinion makers always been prepared to leam from her students.

Red Hat founder assists Women’s Studies Program for many years, thanks to Jean O'Barr's leadership and the dedicated group of supporters and friends she has won to the cause,” Keohane wrote. “This splendid new gift will do much to help undergird this strength, both for the faculty and for student scholars.” The gift was unique in that Lee and Ewing decided on the donation without University encouragement. “I actually approached women’s studies,” wrote Lee. “I think that is a little wacky, since it usually is the other way around, but they are all so unassuming that if I didn't do something, they would probably never have initiated the discussion.” Greg Pessin contributed to this story.

When Lee came to Duke, Ewing applied for a job with the Office of Information and Technology but was turned down; he subsequently went on to found Red Hat, one of the largest Linux software manufacturers in the nation. Women’s studies staff specialist Cyndi Bunn said the new fellowships will help foster a sense of community within the department. “[The gift] allows the program to become institutionalized in a visible way,” she said. The Women’s Studies Program has not been a prime target of fund-raising efforts. “Women's Studies is a strong program at Duke, and has been strong

Black church expert enjoyed writing, teaching, fishing �LINCOLN from page

He collapsed in his home Sunday morning, and paramedics brought him to the emergency department just after noon. Doctors could not revive him, and his cause of death has not yet been determined. Lincoln came to Duke in 1976 after teaching stints at Clark College, Brown University, Union Theological Seminary and Fisk University, among others. During his 17 years at the University, Lincoln—the William Rand Kenan Jr. professor emeritus of religion and culture—received the Howard Johnson Distinguished Teaching Award and several other honors. “Eric Lincoln was a truly pioneering scholar, especially in his work on the African-American churches in the history of our country,” said President Nan
1/2 MONTH FREE FOR
Keohane. “He was also a beloved teacher and colleague who did much to enrich our community.” After Lincoln retired in 1993, media often consulted him as an expert on race and religion. He grew up in Athens, Ala. and confronted racism daily. He became one of Pepsi Cola’s first black sales representatives and the road manager of the Birmingham Black Barons baseball team, but eventually settled on teaching and writing, which he loved as a profession and as recreation. For his 1990 work on the black church, which he wrote with former student Lawrence Mamiya, Lincoln conducted 2,000 interviews with black ministers. In addition to highlighting the strengths of the American black church, the book also pointed to significant concerns about the institution’s support ofyoung men.

Although he spent most of his time writing, he always managed to find time here and there for some fishing. “He was just talking to my mom on Saturday about how he’d love to go fishing,” his son said. “We had something planned for [Sunday], but it didn’t work out.” During his year as a visiting professor at Clark University in 1993, Lincoln was accused of sexually assaulting a female graduate student. He was acquitted of all charges except for a misdemeanor count of assault and battery. He, his friends and colleagues always denied that he ever tried to hurt the woman. The funeral will be held at the Chapel at 11 a.m. Thursday. Rev. Lawrence Johnson of Durham’s Reconciliation United Methodist Church will preside and former University chaplain Robert Young will deliver the eulogy.

Nurses question Hospital’s timing Officials shoot, incarcerate rebel BUNION from page 1
this,” Miller said. “But at this point in time we also don’t want to block the process Some nurses said that many of their complaints have received more attention in recent months. Oncology clinical nurse Bronwyn Watson said her department was recently informed by Duke Hospital’s Chief Executive Officer Mike Israel that the Staffing Resource Unit would be reinstated. Watson said many nurses had long wanted the system back, because it made their jobs easier by reducing the stress associate ed with having to work in areas in which they were not specifically trained. Both Miller and Watson agreed that the timing of these actions seemed questionable because it coincides with the nurses’ petition to join a union. ”
But Crouch responded that many staff decisions, such as salary increases, were very complicated and could not be put into effect in the short'time since nurses filed their petition to unionize. She said the hospital hopes to alleviate the current staffing problems by attracting more nurses through increased salaries. “Major decisions take time to implement and more than just a few weeks,” she said. “Gathering data for decisions can’t be done overnight.” Still, clinical nurse Marge Dooley said she is suspicious of the timing of the discontinuation of
mandatory overtime. “It seems suspicious because none of the problems have changed—we still don’t have the necessary staff” she said.

Within minutes, a mob formed. Sankoh was disrobed by the jubilant crowd and taken to the home of ex-junta leader Johnny Paul Koroma, who heads the forces that captured Sankoh. A photo taken by one witness showed Sankoh crammed into a four-wheel drive vehicle, with one captor holding him by the neck and another gesturing toward the rebel leader as if he were showing off a prize.

the ideals of equality and diversity, and forcefully denounce those who try to divide the nation through hate. “We must speak out against hatred. Haters are cowards and when confronted they usually back down. We have to speak out,” said Reno, who listed government policies, like affirmative action, which help unite the nation.
“Diversity is the strength of this nation,” the attorney general continued. “Everyone in America is the beneficiary of affirmative action, some of us more than others.” The attorney general was introduced by law school Professor Christopher Schroeder, who praised Reno’s sense of honor and said she “embodied the very best of honesty and integrity.”

DICKSON from page I climate for students, faculty and staff. The type of work Dickson does at Duke will be similar to her responsibilities at Stanford, but she acknowledged that the cultural details of the two schools are distinctly different. For example, Dickson noted that Duke and Durham’s southern culture, combined with Durham’s large black population, will be an interesting change from the demographics of California, where “Asian” and “Latino” are the predominant minority classifications. Adams, who will leave her post at the end of her five-year term, said Dickson’s California perspective—and specifically her experience at Stanford —will be valuable to the Duke community. “Stanford had distinguished itself in the late ’Bos and has been really excellent in multicultural issues in academics and across the universiP
ty,” Adams said. “She’s been in an organization that has really attempted to undertake the study and contemplation of what diversity means in their setting.”
Impressed with Duke’s commitment to institutional equity, Dickson—who has worked at Stanford since 1989—emphasized the importance of having an office to promote that goal. “People don’t leave their culture... outside of the Duke campus—they bring it with them,” she said. “So now you have all the different experiences, different cultures, in one environment.” But even more impressive, Dickson said, is the Duke community itself. “People [at Dukel are talking about race and differences in a very open and honest way,” she said. “I would not be relocating this distance
if there wasn’t something fabulous about Duke.”

Trustees approve new dorm construction Experts examine ethics in genomics
from page 3 reevaluate these lagging areas. “At this point, all the groups feel confident they’ll get there,” he said. “I think it’s probably too early to think about it.” Trustees deferred discussion on raising the campaign goal for several months. In its meetings earlier in the day, the board approved the $37 million residence hall construction project, the first phase of a $75 million upperclass residential life review that will include renovations to all Main West Campus dormitories. Administrators and trustees spent three years trying to develop the project, and Friday’s approval represented the first conclusive step in the tedious process. Starting May 22, workers will spend two years building the set of three dorms, which will form a quadrangle linking Main West to Edens Quad. The rooms, slightly larger than the current average rooms, will measure 12’ x 12’ for singles and 12’ x 20’ for doubles. After 60 years spent sweating in Cameron Indoor Stadium’s sweltering heat, the men’s and women’s basketball teams and their fans will enjoy air conditioning next season. The trustees approved a $3.5 million project to build air handling units and duct work on Cameron’s rooftop, a new exit tower containing a pair ofstaircases and a new women’s restroom on the concourse. Athletics also managed to gain preliminary approval for its $l2 million to $l5 million football building construction project. The new facility, built between Card Gym and Wallace Wade Stadium, would hold coaches’ and staff offices, locker rooms, a weight room, a speed and agility room, a trophy room, an alumni lounge and several other accommodations. After officials develop the project’s financing plan, the board will revisit the measure for final approval. The trustees also approved a $l.l billion budget for the fiscal year 2000-2001, with an academic budget of $681.8 million, up 6.6 percent from last year. The overall budget does not include Health System spending. The academic portion includes $38.1 million for undergraduate financial aid, up 7.3 percent from last year, and $166 millionfor instruction and department research. A 3.7 percent tuition, fees, room and board increase for incoming arts and sciences students drove part of the budget increases. Jumps in endowment income, which rose 5.9 per-

cent to $67 million, and gift income, which rose 14 percent to $l7 million, also helped. During the board’s open session Friday, outgoing Graduate and Professional Student Council president Tomalei Vess told the board to continue working toward equality for graduate students and thanked its
members for working with her toward that end. “We’re looking to become an equal part of the Duke student body,” the sixth-year zoology graduate student said. “When there are gaps in the continuity of student leadership, it’s important for you to step in and remind the folks about what’s been started now.” Lisa Zeidner, outgoing Duke Student Government president and Trinity ’OO, challenged the board to think creatively about financial aid and realize that it affects all aspects ofstudent life. “Duke really is a special place because the University recognizes the importance of the undergraduate

GENOMICS from page 10 Dr, JeffVance, director of Genomics Research Laboratories at the Center for Human Genetics at the Medical Center, replied that geneticists realized the importance of diversity. “It’s really our job to make sure that there is no determination of what the perfect person is,” he said. “Because there is no such thing.

Council overhauls committee structure A&S from page 9 In explaining to the faculty representatives some of his office’s general admissions policies, Guttentag said officials try to look at a student’s whole profile. “The system we have for evaluating students favors well-rounded students, because we look at cur-
&
riculum, grades, extracurricular activities, standardized tests, recommendations, interviews and essays [and initially give them all the same valuel,” he said. Noting a recent in-house study, Guttentag said that a student’s admissions rating, the sum ofall aspects in one’s profile, correlates very well with one’s eventual graduation grade point average. In response to a question regarding early decision, he noted that about 30 percent of each recent Duke class has been accepted early, compared to 50 percent at Harvard. But, Guttentag said, “Quality of early decision applicants, quantifiably, is not as strong as the regular decision pool.” IN OTHER BUSINESS: The council unanimously approved an amended version of a new structure for its standing committees. The new system eliminates a few standing committees and creates four new ones, including committees on courses, curriculum, faculty research and teaching. Although some professors questioned certain committee duties, council chair and Professor of Chemistry Steven Baldwin promised to finalize the responsibilities over the summer. In what he sees as possibly the first step toward a consolidation of science libraries, Baldwin noted that he has heard plans of moving the math and physics reference materials into Teer Library this summer. Baldwin also responded to requests that the council address University employees’ loss ofsick days due to January’s snow storm. Since the issue is broader than arts and sciences, he said, it will be handled by Academic Council.

foundations; this fact might explain the rise in such donations and a decline in individual gifts. “These are people of great means, who have created these foundations specifically for [giving] purposes,” Vaughn said. With strong giving from foundations, the University has been able to focus its attention on specific aspects of the campaign. Still, areas such as graduate student fellowships and faculty support continue to struggle. “Even with the success we’ve enjoyed, we wish we were doing more in these areas,” said Vaughn. “We don’t feel we’re failing, but we need to do more.” Greg Pessin contributed to this story.

� After a rough opening two rounds, the defending
national champions secured their second-ever East Regional title. By BRODY GREENWALD The Chronicle
When Round 2 of the NCAA East Regionals concluded Friday, the defending national champions were about as close to watching next week’s NCAA
Championships from their living
room television sets as they were to winning their region. Trailing by six strokes and in the rearview mirrors of five different schools, the second-ranked Blue Devils were facing the unfamiliar challenge of playing from behind. With his team forced to question itselffor the first time in at least two months, women’s golf coach Dan Brooks told his squad
exactly what they needed to hear. Nothing. “I told them not a single thing,” he said. “It was not that strange that we weren’t leading. We had just had finals and they were pretty high impact. I wasn’t that concerned because there are always enough teams who get back to what they’ve been doing all year. Some ofthose teams that have been playing great the first two days now have something to
lose and they face the pressure.” The 16th-year coach’s show of faith paid dividends as Duke not only erased Purdue’s sixstroke lead, it won its secondever East Regional title by a comfortable three-stroke cushion at the University Scarlet Course in Columbus, Ohio. Duke’s victory marked its eighth title of the season and extended the team’s winning streak to five consecutive tournaments. The remarkable recovery saw the team shave five strokes off its previous-best round to post a third-round 295, despite heavy winds and rainstorms. “I wanted to my team to show me what they were made of and they responded,” Brooks said. “To have rain pouring on us and fire a 295 to win regionais, that was definitely a big day.

Bill said, Johnson once Duke 8 “Statistics are like a salve. You rub them on your wounds after a loss and you feel better.” At the post game press conference following Duke’s heartbreaking 9-8 tripleovertime loss Sunday to No. 2 Princeton, Duke coach Kerstin Kimel found the statistics chart anything but soothing. As she glanced at the great disparity of fouls called, Kimel could only mutter in disbeP’ton
lief, “Thirty-six fouls, that’s ridiculous.” The 36 fouls called against the seventh-ranked Blue pevils (11-6) marked a season-high, surpassing their previous record when they were whistled for 20 against Georgetown back on March 25. Duke survived the first 35 fouls, but it was whistle No. 36 that hammered home the nail in its season’s coffin. That foul gave Princeton’s Lauren Simone a freeposition shot inside the 8-meter hash with just over a minute remaining in the third overtime period. With no defenders

Men’s lacrosse demolishes Hobart, eyes rematch with UVa By 808 WELLS The Chronicle
A goalie is 75 percent Duke 13 GENEVA, N.Y. of the team’s strength. A good one can Hobart 1 make a weak team awfully tough to beat, while a mediocre one can ruin an otherwise strong team. No. 7 Duke, armed with both a good team and a great goalie, routed Hobart 13-1 in their first-round NCAA matchup last Saturday at Hobart’s Boswell Field. Matt Breslin gave the best performance of his career, turning away 22 Hobart shots and shutting out the Statesmen’s best offensive player, his fraternal twin Jamie Breslin. Hobart’s lone goal came when Duke failed to clear right in front of the crease and the Statesmen’s Jason Ouellet capitalized on the error, tying the score, 1-1. “I’ve been coaching lacrosse since 1983, and I’ve seen a lot of great goalie performances,” Duke coach Mike Pressler said. “I’ve had some and I’ve seen them from other teams. I can’t recall a better performance than Matt Breslin today.” Breslin’s performance, along with that of the rest of the defensive unit, could mean an extended stay in the NCAA tournament. ‘The common denominator in all great teams is that you gotta play defense,” Pressler said. “To hold Hobart to one goal, at home, in the NCAA tournament, is a phenomenal accomplishment. And the credit goes to Stephen [Card] and Matt Breslin, and the entire defense.” The Blue Devils led 5-1 at the break, but Hobart remained within striking distance. Duke then broke the game open by scoring four unanswered goals to push their lead to 9-1 at the end of three periods. Hobart did outshoot the Blue Devils 44-34, but they were only able to record the one early goal. “Coach Norm Sloan once said that you don’t need shooters, you need makers,” Hobart coach B.J. O’Hara said. “We had a lot ofshooters today, but we didn’t have enough makers.” Hobart also struggled on defense after the first quar-
ter and was not able to keep the Duke offense in check like they had done early in the first quarter. In the third quarter, Greg Patchak exploded for three goals to break open the game. Patchak also added three first-half assists.
T.J. Durnan provided another offensive spark, adding three goals for Duke as it cruised in the fourth quarter. Jamie Brodsky, a fan favorite, added another pair of goals as eight different Blue Devils scored goals in the win. Duke now focuses its attention on second-seeded national champion Virginia, which begins its title defense Sunday. “The team is excited,” Cavalier coach Dom Starsia said. “We know it’s not going to be an easy road, but we’re excited that we now have something to focus on.” During the two teams’ matchup earlier in the season, Duke came out with a clear lack of intensity and lost a disappointing 12-7 match. They were outscored 5-1 in the second quarter that day, which effectively sealed their fate. If Sunday is to be different, the Blue Devils certainly have a daunting task ahead of them. Virginia’s attack is considered among the elite in the nation. Conor Gill, who leads the highly touted unit, is regarded as one of the best attackers in the nation and he leads the Wahoos in scoring with 59 points. Gill is joined on the attack with ACC player of the year Drew McKnight, who excels on the field as well as he does in the classroom. The ACC Honor Roll student has scored 28 goals and 24 assists this season, good for second on the team in scoring. If the Blue Devils are to make the Final Four, they must also find away to score against Derek Kenney. The sophomore allows just under seven goals an outing, and has frustrated many attackers. Duke has played well lately and has won three consecutive matches. In those contests, they have outscored their opponents 48-10. However, the Cavaliers have been equally impressive, reeling off 12 consecutive wins since their opening day 13-12 loss to Syracuse.
� Hobart’s leading goal-scorer Jamie Breslin learned more than a few new tricks from twin brother Matt, who played a nearperfect game between the pipes for Duke. GENEVA, N.Y, While everyone else’s parents and family members huddled together in the bleachers of Boswell Field decked out in their Duke blue, Jud and Wendy Breslin sat in turmoil. As the Breslin clan prepared to watch the opening round match between Duke and Hobart last Saturday, the two youngest members of that family were preparing to do war. It was a war that would end well before it got underway, a battle in which only one side would land any punches.
Brody Greenwald Game Commentary When Jamie Breslin squared off against fraternal twin Matt, it wasn’t Hobart’s leading scorer against Duke’s all-star goalie. It also wasn’t the classic battles that the pair used to have in the backyard of their childhood home in Mountain Lakes, N. J. Saturday’s 13-1 Duke romp was, to put it simply, one
brother frustrating the hell out of his closest friend and most familiar adversary. With less than seven minutes to play, Jamie received one last chance to finally net a goal on his brother. But when Matt once again stoned the point-blank opportunity, Jamie received a pat on the head and a few words of brotherly love. “He just said, ‘Nice try,’” Jamie said. “We were talking the entire game. He just came up play after play making stops and he was just real confident.” In this family feud, however, Matt’s game did all the talking he needed. The junior was named College Lacrosse USA player of the week following his 22save performance.

Many of those 22 saves came against his brother, who struggled miserably against an opponent who knew his every move. “With knowing Jamie’s tendencies, I just approached the game with an extra sense of, ‘I gotta react,’” Matt said. “I didn’t want to psych myself out when Jamie had the ball because he’s a great player. I guess I had a little step against him today, but I’m sure if we played tomorrow he would score five or six.” But there is no tomorrow for Jamie and Hobart. The Blue Devils, on the other hand, will once again battle defending national champion and ACC rival Virginia. Yet, the moment could only be called bittersweet for the Breslins, and it was certainly no easier for Matt. “I was definitely very upset [about playing Hobartl,” he said. “Jamie and I are very close. We really didn’t want to play each other. “We’re all very close. Our parents are very proud of Jamie and me. They’re obviously very pleased for one to move on, but we’re all really upset about Jamie going home. But we’re going to keep going, and Jamie will be our No. 1 fan. That’s how great our relationship is

Women’s tennis breezes to Malibu behind 2 shutouts By RAY HOLLOMAN The Chronicle
Puke 5 After five years in the business, Jaime Ashworth Ark, 0 knows that no matches are really routine. His team just makes them look that way. Despite playing in temperatures that ran up to 105 degrees on the court, the No. 6 women’s tennis team barely broke a sweat as it ran through a pair of opponents by 5-0 scores this weekend to move into the round of 16 of the NCAA tournament in Malibu, Calif. And for the 12-time defending ACC champions that’s just par for the Final Four course. “We didn’t play well, but we competed well,” Ashworth said. “We competed as well as we have all season—we played hard—but we just weren’t striking the ball well or making good decisions.” But for a talented Arkansas team, that Duke didn’t play its best match of
the year didn’t much matter. It was more
than enough. “In terms of the score, that was our worst loss of the year,” said Arkansas coach Kevin Platt, whose Razorback club plays in the SEC, the nation’s top conference. “We played well, but there just wasn’t much we could do.” Pat Riley’s hair gel may be the only thing more synonymous with May playoffs than that statement. “This is a team with only one mission,” Mississippi coach JerryMontgomery said a year ago, after his Rebels were run out of the tournament 5-0 by the Blue Devils.
‘That’s seek and destroy.” And in a season where all there was of consistency was inconsistency, these Blue Devils might just be back in the same form that has taken them to the last four Final Fours. “We’re definitely getting to that kind of

to prevent her scoring attempt, Simone managed to get a shot just past Duke goalie Shannon Chaney as Princeton advanced to this weekend’s Final Four. “That is my favorite spot to shoot from,” Simone said. “I wasn’t really nervous. I knew I had to shoot high and I stuck it.” The Blue Devils acknowledged the tremendous play of Princeton, but they were disappointed about the ending of the game.
“It’s such a shame to lose like that,” said a tearful Kate Kaiser. “You work so hard for so long. I give Princeton credit. It was a great shot, but on a free position. I feel like those are gimmes.” Despite the disparity of foul calls, Duke had numerous opportunities to topple the Tigers and advance to the Final Four for the second time in as many years.

crease, but Tiger goalie Laura Field stopped Gallagher’s would-be gamewinning goal “We got some really good looks in the overtime period,” Kimel said. “Lauren Gallagher had that tremendous shot and I thought that was it, the game was over. But things weren’t falling. I think that the ball bounced Princeton’s way this game.” In the first half, however, everything was bouncing Duke’s way. The Blue Devils got into the scoring column early when All-American Tricia Martin notched her 35th goal of the year just three minutes into the match. Duke built its lead to 4-1 after Kelly Dirks and Soulier each added a goal, but Princeton battled back in the second half. “Like any team, they’re going to come out playing hard in the second half, especially when they’re down,” Chaney said. “They’re a great team and they’re going to come back hard ho matter what the score is. If you don’t get the job done the first half, you come back the second half and get the job done, and that’s what they did.” Princeton reeled off six consecutive goals, including three on free position shots, in an 18-minute span to claim its first lead of the contest at 7-4. But then it was the Blue Devils’ turn to mount their own valiant comeback. Kaiser and Martin scored free position goals in the second stanza just 37 seconds apart to trim the Tiger lead to one, 7-6. The Blue Devils managed to dig themselves entirely out of the hole when Lauren Gallagher knotted the score at eight on a free position with just 1:37 remaining in regulation. Before
Gallagher’s score, Kaiser posted her second goal to pull within one with just under five minutes left to play. The loss to Princeton came on the heels of a thrilling one-goal victory over Dartmouth at Koskinen Stadium last Thursday. The win was Duke’s second of the season over Dartmouth, and it once again began talk of Final Fours and national titles to Durham. Although the Blue Devils did not accomplish their ultimate goal of a national championship this year, they did send a message to the rest of the lacrosse world that last year’s run to the Final Four was not a fluke. .

It gives them the confidence to know that even if they get the jitters, they can come back and win.” Although Duke has been virtually unstoppable in recent tournaments, all year the team has had to wonder how it will stack up when it competes against the Pac-lO’s elite.

Undoubtedly concerned over the specter of a Becker RBI, Maryland pitcher Mark Martin walked the Blue Devil third baseman, allowing Broadway to come to bat. Down two strikes in the count, Broadway hit a blooping double to shallow left field, which permitted Mason and Becker to score and gave the Blue Devils a two-run lead.

enough was enough. Root drilled his return of serve deep to Steckley’s backhand and then hammered the shortreply into the back corner of the court, greeting the winning shot with a fist-pump and a yelp. “Doug did an unbelievable job under pressure. His maturity as a senior showed up,” Lapidus said. “Ninety-nine percent of players would have folded in that situation,but Doug stuck with it and delivered.” The Blue Devils nearly had the match under wraps at No. 4 singles, as Andres Pedroso—who had won at No. 1 against South Carolina in the two teams’ regular season meeting—jumped out to a 3-0 advantage in the third set.

But South Carolina’s Seth Rose, winner of 12 of his previous 13 matches, rallied back to win the next six games and pull the Gamecocks to within a
point at 3-2. “[No. 4 singles] was the key match,” DeMars said. “If we could take that one, I felt like we could win the match.” And with the two remaining matches both at 3-2 scores in favor of South
Carolina, the Gamecocks couldn’t have been in a better situation, Despite an inspired performance at No. 2 singles—a match which was as acrobatic as it was energetic—junior Ramsey Smith couldn’t pull out the point for Duke, falling 6-2 in the third and leaving Duke with little more than a prayer and a senior to rely on. And the senior pulled it out.

in their opening round match, Arkansas spent over four hours in a grueling 5-4 win over North Carolina. “That’s the advantage they get for the regular season,” Platt said. “It definitely didn’t help us.” And it showed in the two deciding three-set matches. After Biro claimed the No. 4 singles match and a 4-0 Duke match lead, No. 5 seed Katie Granson rallied in her match to seal the Blue Devils’ spot in the round of 16 with an emphatic 6-1 victory in the deciding set. The Blue Devils next play Arizona State today at 11 a.m., but just one round beyond the Wildcats awaits the Florida Gators, a team that Duke has defeated just once in 24 tries. But in a season where the unexpected became the norm, even an upset of Florida seems, well, routine.

players Whitney Laiho of Florida and Adria Engel of Wake Forest. Since the team’s Feb. 19 loss to Pepperdine, Duke’s senior has gone 19-2. “Megan has been playing very well lately,” Ashworth said. “Going into the season our number one spot was a question mark, and she has just stepped up and done it.” And the rest of the team followed suit Wins by Hillary Adams and Prim Siripipat at No. 5 and 6 singles, respectively, pushed the Duke advantage to 3-0, grabbing the momentum of the match less than an hour in. No. 4 seed Erica Biro then recovered from a first-set slump to claim a 2-6, 6-2, 6-1 victory over Adriana Lopez, who was visibly fatigued by the extreme heat. As a team, the Razorbacks struggled with the 100-plus degree weekend temperatures. While the Blue Devils were able to get on and off the court in an hour
