Housing figures show disparities � For the third year in a row, West Campus and fraternities are disproportionately white, while Central and North campuses have a disproportionate percentage of minorities. By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle Despite student and administrative promises to increase residential diversity, racial and ethnic segregation still plagues Duke dorms and campuses, according

to this fall’s housing statistics, recently released by the Office of Student Development. Compiled annually by Assistant Dean of Student Development Bill Burig, the numbers illustrate a continued lack of diversity among certain selective housing groups, as well as a disproportionately high percentage of minorities on North and Central campuses. This validates a pattern that has emerged over multiple years and reflects similar trends across the University,” said Barbara Baker, dean of student development. “Every person who looks at this can draw different types ofconclusions.” While 62.1 percent of all residential students are white, 80.4 percent of fraternity residents and 57.8 percent of non-fraternal selective house members are white. Two years ago, when such statistics were first calculated, 61.8 percent of all residents were white. Just over 80 percent of fraternity members and 62.4 percent of non-fraternal selective house members were white. “Clearly some living groups, particularly non-fraternities, are becoming more diverse,” Burig said. “But the vast majority of fraternities haven’t changed at all.” This year, Asians comprise 15.4 percent of the residential student body, but only 4.9 percent of residential fraternity members; 4.9 percent of all residents are See HOUSING on page 9 �

Price, Ward weigh in on litany of Fourth District issues Candidates towed the party line through the debate By ANDREW ROTHMAN The Chronicle

Last night, the candidates for the Fourth District seat in the U.S. House of Representatives went head to head on campus in a debate that covered a wide variety of issues, including tax cuts, education, social security, foreign relations and prescription drugs. Congressman David Price, the Democratic incumbent, and Republican candidate Jess Ward answered four questions prepared by moderator and political science professor Paula McClain, followed by 15 questions posed by the 50-member audience of Duke students and residents of the Fourth District. In addition to describing their leadership experience and character, the candidates strove to emphasize the differences between their positions on a wide array of subjects. The candidates differed sharply on Social Security, essentially siding with

their respective parties’ candidate for president. In support of Texas Gov. George W. Bush’s partial privatization plan, Ward said, “I believe that with the

looming crisis, we have to do something different and allow young people to invest [part of their Social Security benefits] in personal accounts.” Price, on the other hand, echoed Vice President A1 Gore’s view of the looming Social Security insolvency, saying, “I believe the best way to prevent [failure of the system] is to get rid of the national debt.” He contended that reducing the debt would save billions on interest payments, which could then be used to keep Social Security afloat. The rest of the debate followed this general trend. In response to a question regarding education, the candidates voiced opinions consistent with the platforms of the presidential candidates. Price, the Democratic candidate, favored See

North Korea welcomes Albright Secretary of state makes historic visit to discuss missile and nuclear programs

The North Koreans agreed to a temporary moratorium to their missile program last year and in return the Clinton administration lifted some sanctions. But the White House wants to see how much further the North Koreans will go in shutting down their missile development and testing before making a final decision on a presidential trip. In 1998, the North Koreans testfired a Taepodong missile, a move that hastened the administration’s decision to move ahead with its national missile defense and that unsettled Japan and South Korea. But since then, rapid efforts by South Korea to move toward reconciliation have defused some of the tensions.

Secretary of State Madeleine Albright was immersed in the totalitarian ideology of North Korea Monday, meeting with leader Kim Jong II and attending a spectacle by more than 100,000 performers celebrating the Communist Party.

before he leaves office. Kim went out of his way to play the gracious host, moving up his meeting with Albright by one day and then unexpectedly attending the performance and a dinner at a government guest house with her. Albright responded Monday night, saying, “America’s symbol is the eagle, a bird that soars, and Korea’s pride is mountains that scrape the sky. There is no obstacle we cannot overcome if we make the strategic decision to do so together.”

Albright got down to business with Kim, discussing “issues of concern to the United States” for three hours, in talks that were “substantive and useful,” said her spokesperson, Richard Boucher. The length of the first face-toface session and the fact that a second is scheduled for Tuesday, ap-

Barak and Sharon consider coalition win broad public support for his policies in the confrontation with the Palestinians. Sharon is seeking a veto on future concessions in any peace talks, and by entering the cabinet he would improve his position against his main rightist rival, former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Recent polls have given Netanyahu a better chance of defeating Barak if elections are held. Barak has argued that the current wave of Palestinian protests and rising tensions on Israel’s border with Lebanon require a broad-based government. But Israeli peace advocates and Palestinian officials warned that bringing Sharon into the government will bury any hope of peace, sending a signal that Barak has given up on negotiations.

JERUSALEM Prime Minister Ehud Barak of Israel formally opened talks Monday with Ariel Sharon, the rightist opposition leader, on forming a coalition government as battles with Palestinians erupted again in Jerusalem and with no end in sight to the violence. The talks on a coalition recessed for a day after the first disagreements cropped up, but both leaders seemed intent on overcoming resistance in their own parties to joining forces. However, both men are said to have a strong interest in forming a coalition. By bringing Sharon into the government, Barak, who has lost his majority in parliament, could escape a vote by lawmakers for early elections. He could also

Ice cream man talks on business By NEIL VAISHNAV The Chronicle

Hungry but socially minded students convened at the Freeman Center for Jewish Life Monday night to hear Ben and Jerry’s cofounder Jeny Greenfield speak on corporate responsibility, the state of global business and the arduous task of selling ice cream during a Vermont winter. Greenfield primarily discussed the need for businesses to be socially responsible and to give back to the community, especially in an age where business represents the dominant source of power in society. “First it was religion, then it was government, and now, business is the most powerful organization in society.... It controls the media through dominance of the airwaves; it controls our democracy through campaign contributions, and it controls legislation through lobbying,” he said. “At least religion and government exist with the good of the people in mind. Business exists to make a profit.” Greenfield argued that companies should think beyond the bottom line. “You have to redefine the bottom line and look not at just how much See BEN & JERRY’S on page 8

Cameron climate on pace for its big chill By MEGGIE SRAMEK The Chronicle

Although the environment of Cameron Indoor Stadium, with its raucous fans and intense feeling of history, may never change, some fans have hoped for some time that its climate would change significantly. This season, the stadium should get a lot cooler. “I think the voices of the thousands of people that called in and complained had something to do [with the decision to install air conditioning,!” said Chris Kennedy, associate athletic director. Roadblocks to installing air conditioning in the past have included expense—the installation costs about $2.4 million—and engineering problems. The original design involved interior ductwork that would have obscured vision of the scoreboard from fans in upper-level seats and would have affected the atmosphere of Cameron. With the current design, all of the ductwork and the four air handling units are situated on the roof, so there is virtually no impact on the interior space. Others have worried that changing

the temperature in Cameron would affect the stadium’s raucous atmosphere and unique home-field advantage. But women’s basketball head coach Gail Goestenkors and assistant men’s basketball coach Steve Wojciechowski said the air conditioning is not likely to affect the players’ performance. “I don’t foresee any impact of the A/C,” Wojciechowski said. “[lt] will make it a little more comfortable for the people sitting upstairs and in the stands. But regardless, it will be hot by the court when that many people are packed into Cameron.” And the recirculating air will not affect gameplay or ball flight because it should not alter air currents. ‘The play-

ers will never feel any air moving, only a

change in temperature,” project architect Pete Romeyn said. ‘The system has been designed to avoid any drafts on either players or fans.” Technical preparations for air conditioning include installing steel work, painting, taking down scaffolding and reinstalling the seats in the upstairs section of Cameron.

The installation ofair conditioning is a two-stage process. Four large air-handling units will be placed on the roof of Cameron. Each unit is 48 feet long by 13 feet wide and weighs 35,000 pounds.

Preliminary construction for the units, which will not arrive until mid-January 2001, will likely be finished by the Oct. 28 Blue-White scrimmage. During stage one, outside air will be circulated into Cameron. “It won’t make much of a difference in June and July when it’s 95 degrees outside, but it will make a difference during basketball season when it’s 60 degrees [outside] in the fall and spring, but 85 degrees in Cameron,” said Mitch Moser, business manager of the Duke Athletic Association. Stage two will involve actual air conditioning in the arena. According to Romeyn, chilled water, which will cool the stadium year round, should be available for the units in May 2001. “It’s not just an issue of air conditioning, it’s an issue of climate control,” Kennedy said. “It gets cold and drafty in the winter [and it’s not good for the players to be practicing like that].”

Gore avoids key states to solidify base

� Bush attacks Gore on

Social Security

Gov. George W. Bush said Monday that Vice President Al Gore’s proposal for Social Security would create about $4O trillion in debt by the middle of the century, saddling future generations with an onerous burden and leaving the financing of the program inadequate. The Republican made the statements to a rally in Kansas City, the first of several stops in a swing through battleground states in the Midwest.

� Clinton steps up support for Gore, wife Zipping across New York state in full-throttle campaign mode, President Bill Clinton told voters Monday they should vote for Al Gore and Hillary Clinton because a healthy economy is important and because Republican numbers "don’t add up.” Appearing in the Hudson River Valley, in (he New York borough of Queens and in suburban Westchester County, the president said the nation's economic prosperity is al stake in the election.

� Widow may replace late governor Top Democrats are urging Missouri’s new governor to appoint the widow ot Mel Carnahan as senator if the late governor receives more votes than Sen. John Ashcroft in the Nov. 7 election. Carnahan, a Democrat, was in a tight race for the Senate when he and two others were killed in a plane crash on their way to a rally last week. Carnahan’s death came too late to take his name off the ballot.

� Third-party members dispute ballot About 150 Green Party members, Libertarians and other reform advocates rallied at the State Capitol in Raleigh Monday to urge local election boards to tally votes cast for Ralph Nader and other write-in candidates. There will be a space on the North Carolina ballot to write names for president and vice president, but only the Natural Law party candidates will be counted because that party submitted enough petition signatures to quality.

� Poll shows support for bond question A $3.1 billion bond issue for the University of North Carolina System and community colleges has drawn solid support, according to a poll published Monday. Of likely voters, 58 percent supported the bond issue and 25 percent opposed it, reported the poll sponsored by The News & Observer and WRAL-TV. Most of the money would fund the renovation of aging buildings and the construction of new ones at public colleges around the state.

EVERETT, Wash. At a time when Vice President A1 Gore should be scrapping for votes in large swing states like Ohio and Michigan, he is devoting virtually his entire week to campaigning in smaller states that he should be able to ignore, even his home state, Tennessee, Gore’s schedule, only two weeks before the Nov. 7 election, is the ultimate reflection of the down-to-the-wire campaign and the way factors as disparate as Gore’s personality and Ralph Nader’s candidacy are playing havoc with the

electoral map. Beginning with Sunday afternoon’s visit to New Mexico and ending with Friday’s tour of Pennsylvania, Gore will campaign in 11 states this week, each of them won by President Bill Clinton and Gore in both 1992 and 1996. The Democrats won most of those by comfortable margins, often by double digits. Gore’s itinerary includes five states—including Monday’s stops in Oregon and Washington—that were won not only by Clinton but also by Michael Dukakis in 1988. Dukakis won only 10 states that year. Additionally, Gore will campaign this week in West Virginia, which has voted Republican only twice since 1960. And he will spend part of both Tuesday and Wednesday campaigning in his home state of Tennessee, where he has never lost a race during a political career that dates to 1976. His Republican opponent, Gov. George W. Bush, also plans to campaign in Tennessee Tuesday. The vice president’s struggle to solidify his geographic base stems from a number of different factors, political analysts said. Some are national, like Gore’s inability to reassure voters about his credibility and amiability and the lingering ten-

GOP hopes Bush provides N.C. coattails

A wide Bush margin in North Carolina may help elect local Republican candidates

From wire reports Texas Gov. George W. Bush has increased his lead in North Carolina to such an extent that Republicans believe he may help them win some statewide matchups, including the governor’s race, In a poll conducted for The News & Observer of Raleigh and WRAL-TV, Bush led Vice President A1 Gore by a 50percent-to-38-percent margin among Tar Heel voters who said they had decided on a presidential candidate or were leaning toward one. Seven percent of the voters said they WGrG und6cided. In a poll released last month, Bush had the backing of 47 percent of those polled, compared to 42 percent for Gore, That poll s margin of error was plus or mmus four percentage points.

The expectation that North Carolina is safely within the Republican fold is one reason the national campaigns have

largely bypassed the state. The Bush campaign ran two weeks of television advertising in North Carolina in August. The Gore campaign has virtually ignored the state since the national conventions, with the exception of eventssurroundingthedebateOct.il at Wake Forest University. Bush leads in the state because of his overwhelming support among white men, self-described Republicans, and people 65 and over. Gore led among selfdescribed Democrats and blacks. The two candidates were nearly evenly split among female voters. The Republican presidential candidate had strong support among those who had never gone to college. But he also had more modest leads among middle- and upper-class voters. Gore led among lower-income people. The two candidates split voters who had gone to college. The state Republican party hopes 41134 Bush s strength will trickle down to the rest of the ticket and help Republi-

can candidates from the statehouse to the courthouse,

“It could well be the margin that pushes some of our candidates across the finish line,” said Dan Gurley, political director for the state GOR Democrats were skeptical that Bush was as strong as the survey suggests.

“By and large, I don’t think there will be any coattails,” said Scott Falmlen, the Democratic Party’s executive director “People will vote for president separate from how they vote for governor or insurance commissioner n Ted Arrington, a political scientist at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, said Bush probably needs to win 60 percent of the vote before providing any meaningful coattails. And Arrington sees no sign of any Republican tide sweeping the state, such as occurred in 1984 and 1972 to help elect Republican governors Jim Martin and Jim Holshouser “We don’t have any poll evidence to detect a Republican tide,” Arrington said. “I do detect that people don’t like Gore very much and Bush is likeable. He is certainly going to do well here.”

Mellon sends S2M to 2 Duke efforts

Who’s been hit? Duke EMS, the student-run rescue team, simulated a response to a mass shooting last night in Von Canon C.

The first $2 million will support the expansion of the University’s writing program, while $350,000 will support a project that encourages minorities to pursue doctoral study.

The seven-year-old group was called to the scene and then needed to set up a command structure, begin triage, and treat and move patients to a transport site. Members of Hoof ’n’ Horn and physical therapy students acted like victims with injuries like cuts, scrapes, gunshot wounds and other trauma.

By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle

The University received two grants totaling $2 35 million from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Provost Peter Lange announced this month. One grant will support the University’s hiring of more post-doctoral fellows for its writing program while the other will ensure funding for the University’s Mellon Minority Undergraduate Fellowship program. It indicates... the kind of foundation, support and relationship with the Mellon Foundation that we hope is characteristic of our outreach at Duke,” said Dean of the Humanities and Social Sciences Karla Holloway. “We think it will matter very greatly for both students and faculty at Duke.” The first grant, worth $2 million, will allow the University’s writing program to expand the number of post-doctoral instructors from 20 to 24. Specifically, over three-and-a-half years, the grant will help alleviate the cost of stipends, expand the post-doctoral mentorship program and support special training programs like seminars. Administrators said such aid will support post-doctoral fellows’ academic growth and strengthen the writing program overall. “It will free up the fellows’ time a little bit to concentrate both on their scholarship and their teaching,” said Joe Harris, director of the Academic Writing Program. The foundation also gave the University $350,000 to continue Duke’s participation in the Mellon Minority Undergraduate Fellowship program. In 1988, the Mellon Foundation established the program to encourage black, Hispanic and American-Indian undergraduates to pursue doctoral study. “It gives the Duke program another four years to pursue its goal of attracting minority undergraduate students who hope to pursue to doctoral degrees,” said Jacqueline Looney, associate dean of the Graduate School, ‘This is a very significant program for Duke to be a part of.” Since Duke began participating in the program in 1996,19 students have benefited from MMUF. The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation is a New Yorkbased not-for-profit corporation that makes selective grants to institutions emphasizing cultural affairs, performing arts and environmental topics.

Mathematician: Computer can never rival human mind By MATT ATWOOD The Chronicle

Sir Roger Penrose, Rouse Ball profes-

sor of mathematics at the University of Oxford, spoke on the relationship between science and the mind to a standing-roomonly crowd of over 150 in the

Math/Physics Building yesterday.

Penrose presented a mathematical ar-

gument that no computer could completely imitate a human mind, because the human mind possesses understanding in away that computers cannot. ‘The claim is that no knowable computational procedures can encapsulate human understanding and insight,” he said. To set up his argument, Penrose spoke of the existence of three worlds: the phys-

ical, mental and Platonic realms. The Platonic realm encompasses abstract ideals such as mathematics. Each world, he explained, arises from one of the others: the Platonic from the mental, the mental from the physical and the physical from the Platonic. “Each one seems to come from a small part of another,” Penrose said. The more that we understand about the way the physical world operates..., the more and more we are driven to mathematics.” Penrose claimed that the portion of the physical world that gives rise to the mental realm—which includes the human brain—cannot be completely described by computational mathematics—a subdivision ofthe Platonic world. To support this

claim, Penrose argued that an abstract computer known as a Turing machine could not imitate the intelligence of a human mind. Tf it can be shown that understanding is beyond computation,” he said,“then intelligence is not a matter of computation.” Using a theorem of 20th century mathematician Kurt Gbdel, Penrose proved no Turing machine could understand mathematics in the way humans do. “Gbdel tells us that no system of computational rules can characterize the properties of the natural numbers,” he said, “yet a child can grasp the idea of the actual natural numbers after being given only very simple descriptions.” Penrose proposed that the limits of a

Turing machine rest on the fact that the operation of the brain is based on both

classical physics and quantum physics. Since the theory currently used to describe the interaction between quantum and classical physics does not follow computational rules, Turing machines cannot imitate this interaction. Penrose suggested that a new “objective reduction” theory of the interaction between classical and quantum physics is necessary to explain the workings of the brain. He will give two more lectures this week in the Math/Physics Building. His series of lectures is sponsored by the Mathematics Department in memory of

former department chair John Gergen.

Candidates agree on death penalty, prescriptions for seniors � DEBATE from page I

the federal government playing an important and targetedrole in public education, specifically mentioning a national program to hire 100,000 new teachers. In contrast, Ward favored reduced taxes, saying, “My plan says, ‘Give people their money back.”’ That way, the Republican candidate contended, people could control the education oftheir own children. He broke from Bush, however, in announcing that he was against Jess Ward school vouchers. The candidates also discussed foreign relations, with Ward erring on the side of caution when examining military intervention abroad and Price acknowledging the necessity of intervention.

“We are the world’s pre-eminent power and with that power comes a responsibility to get involved in international affairs,” he said, making clear, however, that the United States should not over-

extend the military. Unlike Price, Ward was quick to say that other forms of American influence are necessary in situations not directly affecting the United States. One of the most striking differences between the two candidates was their position on campaign finance reform. Price, in support of the McCain-Fein- Rep. David Price gold bill, which aims to limit campaign spending, said, “Soft money is the unaccountable, unlimited money that is taking campaign finance to unheard of levels.”

In stark contrast, Ward declared, “I believe we should allow anyone to give any amount ofmoney as long as it’s public.” This “full disclosure” would allow the public to decide for itself if money donated to campaigns was suspicious or could pose a significant conflict of interest. Despite all of these differences of opinion, and the candidates’ tendency to speak the party line, they did agree on several issues. They both recognized the need for a prescription drug benefit for seniors, as well as the necessity of the death penalty. They also agreed that a tax cut is appropriate, although they differed on how large a cut is possible. Throughout the debate, though the political ideologies of the candidate remained clearly partisan. While Price pledged to direct the government to aid Triangle families in education, transportation, housing and clean air and water, Ward focused on leaving power to people. “It’s a clear choice: More government or more power to the people. I believe in empowering people.”

The new intellectual engagement factor would not be a seventh component, but would be instead a marker for admissions officials to tell the difference between sim ilar already qualified students. Such methods Chafe said, are already employed at Stanford

University. Chafe and Christoph Guttentag, director of graduate admissions, said admissions officialsunderwill look for specific indicators in essays and recommendations to find applicants who have demonstrated a higher level of thought and learning, something that is not emphasized in the current admissions process. The rating system is very good at providing us with a fairly complete view of the person as a whole but one of the things we’ve realized is the system we use doesn’t allow us to focus as well as we would like on particular qualities that can be particularly important,” said Guttentag, a committee member. “I want to distinguish between the students who are thinking about and engaging material and those who just make good grades. That’s a fairly subtle but important distinction that we want to make.” Chafe estimated that, last year, between 50 and 100 applicants would have been affected by this decision. Administrators have also proposed diversifying the University’s economic demographics. Chafe said that, on average, parents of Duke students are among the wealthiest when compared to peer institutions. Committee members said adding more students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds will enrich the schools diversity and overall campus culture. “Diversity of all types is an important aspect of the educational process,” said committee member James Belvin, director of undergraduate financial aid. ‘This is a variation of diversity that we’ve always been aware of, but one that we want to stress more.”

Officials said they do not know the average income of each student’s parents, but do know that about 41 percent of students receive financial aid. Belvin and Chafe said there are no specific benchmarks for ratios of economic classes but that they would like to see the number of students who receive financial aid increase. To accomplish this goal, admissions officials will begm recruiting more heavily at inner-city magnet schools and other high schools in economically depressed areas. “We’ve made good progress in some areas lot diversity], but I think we might not reach out to [disadvantaged] schools as much as we should,” Chafe said. Guttentag said students who apply from these schools will not be given any special consideration, but that by focusing on economic issues, admissions officers win better understand the differences between students applications. For example, financially disad-

vantaged students are less likely to have taken Advanced Placement courses or to have had the opportunity to travel or participate in summer research. “We’re not going to have a different set of standards for economically disadvantaged students,” said Guttentag. “But I think we can better take into account the experience of being [economically] disadvantaged.” To attract more economically disadvantaged students, the committee has already begun to review the financial aid policy. In addition to drafting a revised car policy, the committee has proposed giving aid to in-

ternational students. The changes are part of the University’s overall strategic plan. All strategic plan changes will have to be approved by the Board of Trustees this spring, and, if approved, the admissions changes could affect the Class of 2006.

The company has also addressed animal rights and environmental causes such as the misuse of Bovine Growth Hormone and the growing number of corporate takeovers of family farms, which he said are needed to sustain rural communities.

Ben and Jerry’s first went public by selling shares at low prices all across Vermont, so that the community could profit with the company. However, the company was recently sold off to Unilever Corporation because it was unable to meet the demands of shareholders.

We can meet another set of needs for our customers. We can use our power to solve our social problems,” he said.

Students: History, self-selection at core of homogeneity

� HOUSING from page I Hispanic, whereas only 3.1 percent of fraternity residents are; and 10.5 percent of all residents are black, compared to 3.9 percent of all fraternity residents over half of whom are in the all-black

Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. Three fraternities are about 90 percent white. By contrast, non-fraternal selective houses are slightly more diverse, with a membership that is 20 percent Asian, 7.1 percent black and 5.8 percent Hispanic. But senior Chris Dieterich, president of the Interfraternity Council, downplayed the meaning of the statistics and said IFC is not planning to actively recruit minorities in the near future. “I don’t see the IFC targeting minorities in any particular way, but certainly not excluding them,” he said. “For the fraternity system as a whole to really try to emphasize this disparity, it just doesn’t deserve that much attention.” Dieterich stressed that it is not IFC’s role to set recruitment standards and that members are chosen based on compatibility with current members. Alpha President Chris Curtis, a senior, said that although his fraternity is currently all black, it too is open to anyone, and that the fraternity system is not necessarily hostile to minorities. “[The housing statistics! are somewhat a social commentary on Duke, and I question whether people really want to be ‘that one guy’ [in a predominantly white fraternity],” he said, “but I think the fraternities are open and there if anyone wants it.” Dieterich de-emphasized the impor-

tance of racial and ethnic diversity, noting that fraternities are diverse in other ways, such as talents and convictions. He added that the numbers are misleading because the presence of only a few minority students could drastically change the percentages. Like it or not, you’re going to meet people from other ethnicities, whether they’re across the hall or across the quad,” Dieterich said. “Does it really change my college experience if my roommate is a different ethnicity than I am?” Two years ago, then-IFC president Stephen Broderick, Trinity ’99 committed to increasing minority representation in fraternities by reaching out to groups such as the Black Student Alliance and the Asian Students Association. IFC abandoned the idea the following spring, calling it too superficial. The addition of more minority-oriented fraternities would help, Dieterich said, but he added that the current residential system makes it difficult for such groups to get housing on West Campus. “The big questions and answers relate back to a lot of things that go back for generations at Duke,” he said. Denis Antoine, president of the Black Student Alliance, said many minorities are drawn to National Panhellenic Council fraternities because IFC fraternities are not “geared” toward them. “In order to fit in on West, you seem to have to be a part ofa selective house,” the senior said. “It creates a stigma and a feeling of unwelcomeness.” Perhaps related to the racial make-

up of fraternities and selective houses is the make-up of West, Central and North campuses. Several administrators agreed that the homogeneity of

such houses trickles down to other

areas of campus and perpetuates even more segregation. “Obviously if you pull out certain groups of students, that’s going to leave

people behind,” Burig said. The black student population on Central has been steadily rising the last three years, with black students making up 25.6 percent of the campus; two years ago, the group made up 21.1 percent of Central residents. Also unusually high is the percentage of Main West that is white—67.2 this year and 68.6 two years ago—and the percentage of Trent that is Asian—23.7 this year and 24.5 two years ago. “It probably has something to do with

the selective housing tradition,” Vice President for Student Affairs Jim Clack said. “I think it’s natural that when people choose where to live they choose people like themselves.” Noting that a major change in the residential structure would be required to alter the current situation, several administrators said that no reforms would likely take place before the completion of the West-Edens Link Dormitory. Once the new dorm is completed,

Burig said, administrators will attempt to recreate the atmosphere of East Campus on West, by trying to keep students in the same class living close to one another. He hopes this measure will allow them to preserve the relative diversity of first-year dormitories. “One of the real sad things of our residential experience is that first-year relationships don’t always carry over to the next year,” Burig said. “And by the end of sophomore year, a lot of opportunity is lost.” However, he and other officials walk a very thin line in their evaluation of diversity in the residential system, cautioning that they do not want to become too involved in students’ choices of where to live. “We should always look for ways to improve the student experience,” Clack said. “But students should have a great deal to say about who they live with. We just have to encourage them to expand their horizons.” But they also want to make dorm life comfortable and accepting, Clack said, and the best way to go about that is still not known. “If the distribution of houses on campus perpetuates the traditions of the past, are we in fact meeting the needs of students?” Burig asked.

Bogus crimefighting Revoking of liquor licenses to stop indirectly related crime only hurts downtown Durham

The

City ofDurham seems to have taken the National Rifle Association’s classic slogan a bit too far. When it asked the state to revoke liquor licenses of local nightclubs and quick marts because shootings frequently happened outside them, it might have well have said, “Guns don’t kill people, booze kills people,” That notion is absurd. In a city that is starving for downtown development and trying to build safe areas in the city center, the government is attempting to drive away some of the only sources of late-night foot traffic. Downtown can only become safe and attract patrons when other patrons walk around there. By revoking liquor licenses, Durham tells businesses that even if they do not, by their nature, encourage violence or gunfights, they will be shut down if violence occurs on or near their properties. The incidents near these bars seem to be relatively unrelated to the business conducted inside them. And Durham Mayor Nick Tennyson says his letters to the N.C. Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission are not in response to any incidents of underage drinking or other illegal alcohol distribution practices. The proposed punishment is unfit for the crime because these bars are not committing those crimes. This is not to absolve the bars ofresponsibility. Bars should assume more responsibility for security as violence increases near their shops. But ultimately, it is the city’s responsibility to keep its residents and visitors safe. So when people are shooting each other in the streets, it seems a little foolish to crack down on the businesses whose customers’ mere presence deters such activity. The Durham Police Department must begin working with these businesses, including the Tobacco Roadhouse and the Power Company Night Club, to help them understand how they can ward off, or cool off, this type ofviolence. DPD must also increase on-duty foot and car patrols near these downtown areas. Other cities like Chicago have boosted short-term police presence drastically and seen real results in curbing downtown violence. At the same time, the clubs and mini-marts must be receptive to the city’s requests for them to hire more security guards and implement new security measures, like hand-held metal detectors and parking lot monitors. In the meantime, the state’s ABC should not accommodate Durham’s request to revoke the business’ liquor licenses and should scold the city for its selfish attempt to use this power to shirk its responsibility for keeping security and peace on its own streets.

Mercer’s case abuses the judicial system, kind people As former Chronicle staff writers who covered Duke football over a span of seven years, including Heather Sue Mercer’s time at Duke and the early stages of this lawsuit, we are disgusted to read the paper’s opinion on the latest Although verdict. The Chronicle’s handling of this farce has been commendable in recent weeks, the editorial staff made a weak and poorlyreasoned decision in suggesting Duke should take this

lying down.

Six former Duke placekickers testified under oath that Mercer lacked the leg strength to kick in a Division I football game. No one could ever doubt Mercer’s heart, especially after all of the extra conditioning programs she

had excellent special teams, so Mercer’s lack of skills put her firmly at the bottom of the depth charts. To suggest she was not treated the same as her peers is simply not true. The other

walk-on kickers, players like Matt Mapes and Ted Post, were expected to play on scout teams in practice, essentially serving as tackling dummies for the starters. As observers of those practices, we feel strongly that had Mercer been allowed to participate in those drills, her slow speed and

reaction skills would have quickly led to injury. Former coach Fred Goldsmith was too decent a man even to consider letting a 145-pound woman stand up to that kind of daily beating.

That

ing 28-yard kick during a spring football game against a defense that had been

instructed not to rush the kicker. Goldsmith’s real mistake was that, in his kindness and desire to stir up excitement for a low-profile program, he gave her a bigger

chance than she deserved. That she was let down by the final outcome is highly understandable, but it’s not grounds for a lawsuit. Duke must appeal this judgment. Frivolous lawsuits like this are a drain on our legal system and an undeserved black eye for honest, dedicated educators of young people like Tom Butters, Joe Alieva and Fred Goldsmith.

Variations on the daily grind Everyday Dharma Kevin Pride One of the things I miss most about college is its resistance to routines. At school, spontaneity rules. Its partner in crime was a place that nurtured my spontaneity, it was college. Not so in the real world. Here, spontaneity somehow becomes planned. This idea of planned spontaneity is an oxymoron, I know, and is usually couched in conversational language, “We’ll just get together and do whatever at seven tonight, sharp.” Out here, people go to work at the same time every day. They go home at the same time.And they eat lunch at the same time. The patterns of daily work are usually very consistent. Meetings are scheduled far enough in advance for ample planning. Most potential routine-busters are accounted for far enough in advance to ensure that the routine itself can be altered, rather than busted. I was frightened one day not so long ago when I realized that I, too, had become a victim of severe routine. I have many routines. Perhaps the most practiced and recurring is the lunch routine. Every day at 1 p.m. I walk from my office to one of two places, an Italian restaurant or a McDonald’s. I always walk the same path, carrying a notebook and pen, listening to the same songs on my headphones. Depending on my mood, those same songs that I listen to every day mean something different to me. I walk past many of the same people every day, and I usually say hello to the security guard at one of the parking garages I pass along the way. When I first recognized it, the routine scared me. I

like to think of myself as spontaneous. Unpredictable. But now, in the real world, something had changed. After some hard thinking, I’ve come to a realization: It’s not the routine itself that I’m attracted to. Alone, the routine is boring. Rather, it’s the regular variations upon this routine that tell the story, the constant usurpations that occur along the way. Here’s an example: there’s this guy I see every day who always perches like a bird on the park bench in front of the Hilton. Feet under bottom, knees out, he looks like a child. He’s homeless. And as far as anyone can tell, he’s completely insane. He’s always there, shouting random words (usually nouns) at anyone who happens to walk

I gave him the familiar old nod, expecting the same in return. This time, rather than nodding, he waved his hand, motioning for me to come over next to him. He spoke to me, his words careful and perfectly articulate: “Hey man, how’s it going?” “Good.” “You got a cigarette?” “Nope. Sorry.” “Okay. Well, enjoy this nice day.” “See you later.” So now we talk. Not every day, but regularly.

� After the dust settles on the Game 2 controversy, the Yankees will take a 2-0 lead and an unbeaten starter on the subway to Shea. By HALBOCK Associated Press

NEW YORK After an unbeaten start, the New York Yankees throw an unbeaten starter at the New York Mets. Orlando Hernandez, who has never lost a postseason start, goes to the mound in Tuesday night’s Game 3 of the World Series against Rick Reed, the loser in the only game the Mets dropped in the championship NL series against the St. Louis Cardinals last week. The Yankees lead the Subway Series 2-0. With a tight win against Oakland Athletics in the division series and two more against Seattle in the AL championship series, El Duque is 8-0 in the postseason and

remains a source of amazement to manager Joe Torre.

“He’s been remarkable,” Torre said yesterday after the Yankees worked out across the city at Shea Stadium, the Mets’ home ballpark. “The last outing wasn’t one of his best, but he persevered and hung tough until we were able to win the ballgame against Seattle.” That was the AL pennant clincher, when the Seattle Mariners opened an early 4-0 lead but the Yankees rallied for the victory. It continued a pattern for a pitcher who never loses in October. “I go back to that first game he pitched against Cleveland in ’9B (in the ALCS),” Torre said. “We were down 2-1. He hadn’t pitched in 16 days.” Hernandez beat the Cleveland Indians 4-0 that day, seven shutout throwing innings in his first postseason start. It set the tone for the Cuban-born right-hander with the corkscrew windup. “As far as the focus and the See WORLD SERIES on page 19

Campbell tries different positions Fans not psyched By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

Will the real Bobby Campbell please stand up?

With only four games left in his college career, the once-upon-a-time starting quarterback has recently been more versatile than a Swiss army knife. “I think it’s a great sign of Bobby’s character,” fellow special teamer Ronnie Hamilton said. “He’s there watching film with us on defense seeing what he can help with out there. It just shows how much he thinks about this team.” If you thought Campbell would simply fade away as D. Bryant takes charge of the

offense to gain valuable experience for next year’s campaign, you would be mistaken. It all started two weeks ago when Campbell showed up on the kickoff, notching the first tackle of the game against Florida State. He’s now listed with Brian Morton on the depth chart as a holder on special teams. “I just think he needs to get in the game more than he’s been in the game,” coach Carl Franks said. “He’s willing to jump in and play wherever it’s necessary. I think that’s a great comment on the character of that young man and every coach would love to have that type of guy on your team.” See

CAMPBELL on page 18

� Pirates name hitting coach manager Lloyd McClendon was hired yesterday as the Pittsburgh Pirates new manager after a 93loss season under Gene Lamont. McClendon, who has no major league or minor league managing experience, was also offered a three-year deal with the crossstate Phillies.

From staff reports

After student apathy last season resulted in 100 less undergraduate seats for each home basketball game this season, Duke’s undergrads passed the buck when given their first significant opportunity to redeem themselves yesterday. With 1,000 tickets available yesterday to one of the biggest games of the men’s basketball season, the long lines of the past were noticeably absent outside Cameron Indoor Stadium, Athletic department officials estimated that nearly 300 seats were unsold at the close of box office hours yesterday for the Nov. 28 game against Illinois, the No. 8 team in the nation according to ESPN.com. Led by the dynamic backcourt of Cory Bradford and Frank Williams, the Illini highlight the Blue Devils’ early schedule, especially in terms of games students will have the opportunity to attend. With most of Duke’s top challenges early in the season coming in out-of-state games or tournaments, Illinois represents the most talented team undergrads will see until the ACC schedule heats up in late January with visits to Cameron by Wake Forest and North Carolina.

Duke and Illinois will tip off at 9 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 28 in the Greensboro Coliseum, only one hour away in nearby Greensboro. The Duke-Illinois game

“This feels like our house was robbed. I feel pretty violated now. Nobody’s done this to us ever. We were helpless. Well, not helpless. It just seemed like we couldn’t stop them when we needed to.” St. Louis Rams defensive tackle D’Marco Farr, on the previously undefeated Rams being pummeled by the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday

Polls don’t do justice to Duke soccer

In the past few years, there has been only one beacon of light to guide Blue Devil fans through the dark days of their fall sports programs. While most of the rest of the country has been able to enjoy a winning football season, collegiate athletics’ fall staple, the tradition of traditions in Durham has posted 11 total wins dating back to the fall of 1995, and has left standard gab about Duke athletics to, “Wait for basketball season.” Also, as far as non-revenue sports go, neither volleyball nor field hockey can pull winning ACC records, and while cross country is fairly good, the general sport itself is nothing to write home about. Thus, for the sizable minority that follows non-revenue sports, the soccer program has been the Pied Piper of Hamlet throughout the fall season. Both the men’s and women’s teams have been something to talk about, to watch, to cheer for, to follow. Something to write home about. Something that wins. All that aside, they get absolutely no respect from the authorities of the college soccer world. Those authorities who disregard the Blue Devils the most include, but are not limited to, two polls: the NSCAA and Soccer America. Duke has also been slighted by the College Cup selection committees—so much in fact, that Duke players have questioned whether with four losses they will even get invited to the College Cup. Last season the men’s team turned a few heads when it took a flawless record into the postseason; however, with a loss

This season, returning nine of 11 Michigan State would not have even starters, and having a stellar recruiting made the tournament after its loss to class, the Blue Devils were not even Wright State. picked as preseason No. 1 in all the polls, It’s not even most of the general and they were as low as sixth in one. press that has no respect for the men’s Thus, when Duke came crashing soccer team, it’s mainly the old guard of back to earth early this season, it quickcollege soccer—the ones that watched ly dropped to No. 12 in Soccer America current national team coach Bruce after two losses to two top-10 teams, and Arena win five titles with Virginia.

That is ridiculous

Meanwhile over on the women’s side, Duke has been almost equally as shafted by soccer authorities. It’s common sense that when a team wins, it will rise in the rankings, and when it loses it will fall, and so far Soccer America has followed through on that basic end of the bargain. However, when the No. 19 team in the country topples the No. 2-ranked team in the country, like the Duke women’s soccer team did to Clemson a few weeks ago, it usually moves up more than just one spot. That, my friends, is not only preposterous, but just like the dealing toward then men’s team, it is a slight to the Duke soccer program. Come to think of it though, by the committee's logic, it makes perfect sense. The women’s team may be good this season, but forget about that, they haven’t been good enough in the past to be really considered a decent team. It’s as if college soccer believes that any success the Duke soccer program has is simply luck, and not skill. It’s a disrespect to a program that consistently, at least for the men, finishes near the top of one of the best soccer conferences in the country. Even though the teams have bad days, the Blue Devils still have shown that they can beat great teams. And they have shown it too many times to simply be ignored or disrespected. Good luck guys, and plan on winning the ACC tournament, because you deserve to make the College Cup. At this rate; you’re not going to make it any other way.
