THE INDEPENDENT DAILY AT DUKE UNIVERSITY

Students brace for new policy As the campus gears up for back-to-school parties, administrators are busy implementing the new alcohol policy. By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle

THAD PARSONS/THE CHRONICLE

A BUS AT THE WEST CAMPUS BUS STOP will run to the Morehead Planetarium at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill every 30 minutes. Administrators hope the service will better relations between the two campuses.

Program launches Duke-UNC bus By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle

Two great rivals moved just a little closer together Tuesday, with the inauguration of a free bus service between Duke and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The service is sponsored by the Robertson Scholars Program, which this year began providing full scholarships to 30 students —15 from Duke,

15 from UNC—who will divide their time between the two schools. Although the students use the buses to shuttle between the campuses, the service is available to anyone with a Duke or UNC ID. “It’s our hope that faculty, staff and students at both institutions will use the Robertson shuttle bus to take advantage of opportunities on the other campus that they wouldn’t otherwise

be able to do, things like taking classes on the other campus, attending lectures on the other campus or using the

libraries on the other campus,” said Eric Mlyn, director of the Robertson Scholars Program. The buses run between Duke’s West Campus bus stop and UNO’s Morehead Planetarium parking lot, from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday through Friday, See BUS on page 15 �

On the eve of the semester’s first weekend, Student Affairs administrators are preparing to implement revisions of the University’s alcohol policy, including major changes to some undergraduate judicial policies. “We have revised the alcohol policy to focus on individual responsibility and group accountability for behaviors that promote a respectful and safe community, while at the same time acknowledging the legal drinking age,” Larry Moneta, the University’s new vice president for student affairs, wrote in a letter to be sent to student leaders today. Most of the changes are an application of recommendations made last spring by the Alcohol Task Force, including more supervision of campus See ALCOHOL POLICY on page 23

By KEVIN LEES

Opening up the field for one of North Carolina’s seats in the US. Senate, Jesse Helms announced Wednesday that he would not seek re-election to a sixth consecutive term next year. The 79-year-old senator’s decision raised speculation as to who would replace Helms on the Republican ticket, and could also encourage more Democratic can-

The Chronicle

Two weeks into his job as vice president for student affairs, Larry Moneta is going through his own orientation to the University. And although he can cite few specifics of policies or present a detailed agenda for Student Affairs, he hopes to jump into the job after arriving in mid-August armed with a basic philosophy. “We need to organize ourselves so that we’re more seamless... with stronger ties to academics and auxiliary services,” he said. But the Division of StudentAffairs faces a number of issues requiring immediate attention, ranging from party supervision to diversity and social space concerns. Moneta must also fill vacant positions within Student Affairs, such as the director of the Duke Career Center and the dean of Student Development. The University has not yet fully implemented plans to monitor parties in commons rooms, but Moneta says his top concern with alcohol is safety for those

who drink. “Some of this comes with the territory of being an adult and experimenting,” he said. “Some [students] fail in their experience. My focus is, what are we trying to create?What do we want our students to be engaged in? We can tighten policies ad nauseam, but it’s not going to change [the presence of alcohol on campus].

Citing the impact of time and expressing gratitude to his supporters throughout his nearly 30 years in office, he said he would not run again. “The point is,” Helms emphasized, “I would be 88 if I ran in 2002 and was elected and lived to finish a sixth term.” But he also stressed that he would remain active in the Senate for the remaining one-and-a-half years of his term. “I am by no means announcing my retirement,” he said. “A great deal of work lies ahead in the Senate this fall and next year.”

Loved Divinity student Nursing school professor loses battle to cancer dies following long illness By JAMES HERRIOTT The Chronicle

Kay Bosley, a third-year Divinity School student, cherished by her colleagues for her tremendous faith and strength in adversity, died Aug. 6 after a two-year struggle with cancer. She was 48.

in the Divinity School, who attended the service. “It’s one of the most remarkable experiences I’ve been through, because most of us do so much to deny death, but she was so faithful and believed so much in God’s promises that God’s love doesn’t stop with death.” More than her willingness to talk about herself, Bosley is remembered for being intent on seeing every moment as an opportunity to be a witness. “She was so outward-focused,” said Ashley Griffith, a third-year Divinity student. “Even though it was obvious that she was the one that needed the concern and care, she’d turn the converservices

sation around.”

Even at her funeral, which Bosley composed herself, she was able to minister to her friends. “It’s amazing that she did her own worship service for her funeral,” said Lowery, who served as a pallbearer. “It started off kind of sad—people gathered and cried and consoled each other. But when the ceremony started, nobody mourned her passing, but cele-

Duke Board of Trustees elects 7 new members By AMBIKA KUMAR The Chronicle

The Board ofTrustees has appointed seven new members, choosing several

new

members,

who their terms July 1, include noted civil Harold‘Spike’Yoh rights attorney Julius Chambers, General Motors CEO Richard Wagoner and two professionals in medical fields. “[They are] very highly qualified,” said Board Chair Harold “Spike” Yoh. “It’s probably the best and heaviest group we’ve had... They’re really qualified, and they’re diverse.” began

The screening committee, headed by Trustee Robert Steel, faced an unusually large retiring class of Trustees, all seven of whom had expiring terms. University Secretary Allison Haltom said the Board tried specifically to recruit two people with medical backgrounds, given the changing nature of health care. Those two members are health care policy specialist Uwe Reinhardt, a professor at Princeton University and current member of the Duke University Health System Board of Directors, and Dr. Lewis “Rusty” Williams, chief scientific officer of Chiron Corp., Graduate School 77 and Medicine 78. Also among the new members are education technology expert Kimberly Jenkins, Trinity 76 and Graduate School ’80; Duke Alumni Association President Gary Melchionni, Trinity 73 and Law ’81; and former Duke Student Government president Jordan Bazinsky, Trinity ’Ol. Both Bazinsky, who

sits in the designated young trustee spot, and Melchionni, who represents the alumni association, will serve limited terms and serve as non-voting members for the first year. Yoh said he thought Chambers, former chancellor of North Carolina Central University, would give the Board a needed perspective, given the departure of former University of North Carolina Chancellor Paul Hardin. He added that Wagoner demonstrated a real commitment to Duke in addition to corporate expertise. ‘We really seek out... someone who has a connection and a love for the school,” Yoh said. “To be a trustee, you pay your own way. It’s tough. He’ll have to take time away from his business, and it really takes passion and dedication.” Each new trustee will serve a sixyear term, with the possibility of serving another. Thirty-one of the 36 members of the Board are alumni.

Among the outgoing members of the

Board are Hardin; Susan Bennett King, Woman’s College ’62; Wilhelmina Reuben-Cooke, Woman’s College ’67; Morris Williams, Trinity ’62 and Graduate School ’63; young trustee Christopher Lam, Trinity ’9B; and alumni association representative Gwynne Young, Woman’s College ’7l. In addition to selecting new members, the Board re-elected five board members to six-year terms: Paula Phillips Burger, vice provost at the Johns Hopkins University, Woman’s College ’67 and Graduate School ’74; Melinda French Gates, Trinity ’B6, Fuqua ’B7 and wife of Microsoft founder Bill Gates; Dr. Rebecca Trent Kirkland, professor of pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine, Woman’s College ’64 and Medical School ’6B; Ernest Mario, chair and CEO of Alza Corp.; and the Rev. Charles Smith, Trinity ’62 and Divinity ’65.

Durham struggles to revamp business loan program From staff reports A troubled loan program in Durham could force the city to return hundreds of thousands of dollars of misspent federal funds. The program was originally designed to give small businesses in central Durham low-interest loans of up to $35,000 to help foster economic growth in the city. But the loan applications were given very little scrutiny, and many of the 24 businesses which received loans are not located within Durham, gave nonexistent addresses, or have not been repaying the money, The News & Observer of Raleigh reported. The troubles with the program were first discovered when auditors for the federal Department of Housing

and Urban Development, which funded the loans, found evidence of poor record-keeping. That prompted City Manager Marcia Conner and District Attorney Jim Hardin both to conduct investigations of mismanagement and possible criminal wrongdoing. But they turned over their investigations to the HUD inspector general July 30. At the center of the loan decisions was Anita Bennett, an outside contractor whom the city hired to administer the loans. Bennett is also under investigation by federal HUD auditors for earlier troubles handling a $30,000 loan in Raleigh. Before Durham’s decision to hire Bennett, Raleigh officials warned Durham’s housing director, Kendall Aber-

nathy, that her administration of the Raleigh loan had been “poor.” In the wake of the problems, Abernathy was fired, and Durham’s director of economic and employment development, Greg Payne, resigned at Conner’s urging. The program was transferred to the office of housing and community development. Conner said the program was still worthwhile, if its problems could be overcome. “We want this program in place to meet the goals that it was intended to meet and to build the capacity needed to make an impact on economic development and workforce development in our community,” she said.

Duke lawyers issue response

THAD PARSONS/7HE CHRONICLE

CHRISTOPH GUTTENTAG speaks to the most diverse class in Duke’s history. The incoming freshmen also heard from President Nan Keohane at Thursday’s convocation.

New class attends convocation By NADINE OOSMANALLY The Chronicle

In her convocation address to the Class of 2005 yesterday, President Nan Keohane paralleled the undergraduate education at Duke to that of a sower. She advised students to take a “pioneering” role and cultivate their lives at Duke. Keohane said this would enable them to flourish, “to build character—to make you a better person... to sow the seeds of a lifetime of growth, safely rooted in fertile soil, ready to blossom and flourish as they are needed and as the seasons of your life will call them forth.” Students should be prepared, she said, to leave the

comfort of the University in four years as they have now left their homes, not to fear the future. To achieve that level of preparation, she advised students to take advantage of the seeds offered by the University. Freshman Eric Abrams said he agreed with the president’s message. “Involvement is critical for students to have a good time now as well as later in life,”

he said.

Keohane also stressed the need to make campus climate more welcoming to diversity and spoke ofher efforts to achieve that goal. See

From staff reports In a July 27 response to a brief filed earlier this summer by former Duke place kicker Heather Sue Mercer’s attorneys, Duke lawyers struck out harshly in defense of the University’s appeal of the $2 million verdict awarded to Mercer last October. “Mercer’s brief is replete with factual distortions and omissions,” the response reads in its first line. A federal jury found that Duke discriminated against Mercer in 1995 when then-head football coach Fred Goldsmith first allowed Mercer to walk on the team, then refused to let her dress for games or practice. The University subsequently appealed the decision in the US. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals. In its latest brief—filed as a rebuttal to Mercer’s arguments against the appeal—the University focused on the amount ofthe punitive award; the document specifically asks for a new trial for punitive damages on the basis that the previous amount awarded was a miscarriage of justice. Furthermore, the University argued that punitive damages are not legally available for an implied cause ofaction under Title IX, that there was in-

sufficient evidence to support the award and that the “grossly excessive punitive damages award” deprives Duke of due process of law. “Nothing in Mercer’s brief changes the conclusion that the punitive damage award should be reversed,”

the brief reads. The response also argued that Duke’s conduct was not “unusually reprehensible,” and that the award of punitive damages does not further any legitimate objective. Duke contends the punitive damages have no reasonable relationship to the compensatory damages and that they grossly exceed penalties that could be imposed for comparable misconduct. Duke’s response challenged the court of appeals to reduce the amount to what is “constitutionally permissible.”

Former visiting professor wins legal battle in Egypt Feminist challenges hisba law By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

A former Duke visiting professor was recently found not guilty in an Egyptian court after a trial that could have forcibly ended her marriage. Nawal el-Saadawi, a Muslim doctor and feminist, won a key ruling July 30 after being charged by Muslim lawyer Nabih A1 Wahsh under “hisbaa law that allows citizens to bring charges against other citizens.

that Saadawi slandered Islam. Under hisba, Saadawi could have been forced to divorce her husband of 37 years, Sherif Hetata. “My husband and I are very happy. But we feel the case should have been rejected by the court from the very beginning,” Saadawi told Reuters. Saadawi, who remains in Egypt, was not available for comment to The Chronicle. Saadawi was not present during the final court proceedings, but said she will fight to have the hisba laws renounced. After Wahsh accused Saadawi of slandering Islam, Egypt’s prosecutor-general declined to pursue those charges against Saadawi. Wahsh then challenged the 1996 law that requires only the prosecutor-general to further pursue the matter

after the charges have been made. Under that law, a Muslim may interfere in others’ lives if they commit a crime against God or the people and refer that charge to officials. Islamic law states that Muslims cannot be married to anyone who has abandoned Islamic faith. “Everyone acts as the eyes and ears of the state. That is what the law ofhisba is all about,” said Ebrahim Moosa, Duke professor of religion, an expert on Islamic law. “The institutional hisba prevailed at a time when the government did not have as detailed surveillance forces as they have today.” The ruling last month, which cannot be appealed, upheld the 1996 law, thus ensuring victory for Saadawi. The court subsequently dropped all charges against her. Muslim fundamentalists have used hisba laws in the past to attempt to curb the influence of intellectuals in Egypt. Arabic literature professor Nasr Abu Zeid in 1995 was declared apostate by the court and had to flee to the Netherlands.

New graduate students adjust to life at Duke As incoming graduate and professional students adapt to Duke, administrators are trying to prepare them for the work that lies ahead By WHITNEY BECKETT The Chronicle

A comforting fact for the Class of 2005: They are not the only new kids on campus. Incoming graduate students must also learn the bus routes, unpack their belongings and sit through convocation. Orientation week for graduate and professional students began Wednesday and will last through Sunday, offering social gatherings and informational opportunities to the new students. Associate Dean of the Graduate School Jacqueline Looney said that orientation goals include communicating to students how the Graduate School represents their interests, helping them understand school policies and easing the transition from undergraduate life or the workplace to graduate school, their new home.

“We are trying to give them a taste of what the academic life will be like and what else they need to be focusing on in their graduate student career,” Looney said. “We want to encourage students to come to the social and intellectual events that are being sponsored and to become part ofthe Duke community.” For their part, students are getting in the spirit ofthe week and preparing for their upcoming years of study. “[Orientation] showed me that graduate students are meant to be here,” nursing school student Deirdre Fleming said. “No matter how stressed or overwhelmed we become, we are here for a reason, and we are going to do great things.” In his convocation address Thursday afternoon in the Chapel, Duke Trustee Robert Richardson, a Nobel Prize recipi-

ent and vice provost for research at Cornell University, recommended that students make a point of learning a trade, taking time for leisure and becoming part of the University community. This attitude is a new one for many students. “It is a big transition from undergraduate school,” nursing student Dave Efries said. “Orientation has made it very clear that the focus is on making a contribution to society, not on grades. It’s the kind ofthing you think is only in the movies.” Beyond redirecting students’ perspectives, orientation attempted to convey more tangible information about the resources available to the students, especially those online. The progression in technology since these students were undergraduate freshmen is one of the few changes visi-

ble in a week that maintains the same spirit and message year after year. “Duke is very focused on technology,” Efries said. “It’s helpful, although I admit I miss paper and pencil. It loses a bit of the atmosphere when everyone is staring at their computer screens instead of waiting in line or going to things like convocation in the Chapel.” Even if some are more excited about technology than others, students agreed that orientation still brings out the best and worst ofthe being in a new

environment.

“This all seems overwhelming right now. There is so much information being thrown at you at once,” physical therapy

student Megan Williams said. “I’m excited about the year. I expect to be challenged, to study hard and to come out happily in the end.”

Politicians scramble for open seat Duke reacts to Helms’ decision P HELMS RETIREMENT from page 1

Still, Helms’ decision means that the Republican Party must find another candidate to run in 2002. Several Republicans have expressed interest in running, but in deference to Helms, none have announced their candidacy. The Republicans most commonly mentioned as potential replacements for Helms are

former presidential candidate and two-time Cabinet member Elizabeth Dole, former Charlotte mayor and gubernatorial candidate Richard Vinroot, former U.S. senator Lauch Faircloth and U.S. Rep. Richard Burr. Dole, Woman’s College ’5B, took what could be a possible first step toward the Senate race Thursday when she svwfcched her voter registration from Kansas to “another jurisdiction.” Dole has strong Republican backing at the national level, said Christopher Schroeder, professor of law and public policy studies and co-chair of the Center for the Study of Congress. “My information is that the White House in particular would very much like Elizabeth Dole to be the nominee,” he said But Michael Munger, chair of the Department of Political Science, pointed out that Dole had no campaign organization in North Carolina, unlike Vinroot and Faircloth, who have both already run statewide campaigns. “It’s a hard problem to overcome,” he said. “If I were Elizabeth Dole, I’d give it a [pass] and do something else.” Hunger predicted Vinroot to be the most likely Republican nominee, but doubted his ability to win a general election. He characterized Vinroot, who lost last year’s gubernatorial election to Mike Easley, and Faircloth, who lost his Senate seat to John Edwards in 1998, as “damaged goods.” Burr, the representative for the sth District, has served four terms in the House, but never run for statewide office.

Bill Cobey, chair of the state Republican Party, declined to speculate on which Republican would make the strongest candidate But he did predict that the seat would remain in Republican hands. “Oh, we’re going to retain it,” Cobey said, though he admitted the task would not be easy. “It’s going to be a vigorous campaign.... It would have been a vigorous campaign if Sen. Helms had run.” Still, Schroeder said, Helms’ announcement gave the Democrats a boost, since Helms, who was elected all five times he ran, would have been favored to win

not to run for a sixth term and others disagreed. Most said they hope the upcoming race will get students more involved. By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

re-election once more. “Their chances are better now with him gone,” he said, although he cautioned that the seat would still be a toss-up, not an easy victory for the Democrats. “Historically, open seats go about 50-50.” The only Democratic candidate for the Senate seat so far is North Carolina Secretary of State Elaine Marshall, the first woman to ever serve in that position. But State Rep. Dan Blue of Raleigh has not discouraged speculation that he will run. Blue has served 11 terms in the House and is the former speaker and minority leader. Former governor Jim Hunt, who lost to Helms in 1984, had also drawn attention as a potential candidate, but he denied Wednesday that he was interested in the seat. Nevertheless, Hunger said Hunt might still be considering a run. “That’s what they all say until they announce that they are running,” he said. Hunger added that either Hunt or Blue would be more likely to gain the seat than Harshall. “I don’t think there’s a chance [for Harshall],” he said. “She hasn’t held a heavyweight elective office.” State Sen. Hichael Reeves, also of Raleigh, had declared his candidacy but recently dropped out.

A day after Sen. Jesse Helms announced he would

not seek a sixth term as senator of North Carolina, Duke’s campus was rife with talk about Helms, his contributions over 30 years ofpolitical life and his poten-

tial successors. “I’ve always respected him, both personally and on a policy level,” said John Zimmerman, a senior and vice president ofthe Duke Conservative Union. “I think he did take some tough stands, but I agree with a lot of what he stood for.” Zimmerman, also a columnist for The Chronicle, said the retirement of Helms and the ensuing open race for his Senate seat in 2002 would be a charge to

students to get involved. Senior Ron Crisco, president of Duke Democrats, agreed. His e-mail inbox is already filling with messages concerning Helms.Tve already had several requests, inquiries from our membership asking what we’re going to do now that this announcement has been made,” Crisco said. Michael Hunger, chair of the political science department, said that overall, the race might not interest too many more Duke students. “I can’t imagine that it would,” he said. “Most of our See

I’m not sure students care that she’s an alumni,” he said.

Amid criticism, Easley proposes sales tax increase lawmakers have been in negotiations over the budget.

But Easley and Senate Democrats oppose the

� CITY STATE BRIEFS from page 4 &

Easley proposes tax increase: In

statewide broadcast Aug. 16, Gov. Mike Easley called for a one-cent sales tax increase, prompting immediate criticism from Republicans. Easley claims the increase will protect progress made by North Carolina’s public schools in recent years, but Republicans staunchly oppose any tax hike in light of the recent economic downturn. Easleys proposal also included three tax cuts aimed at lower- and middle-income couples. “These targeted tax fairness measures, combined with the homestead exemption for seniors I recently signed into law, will protect family pocketbooks while putting the state’s financial house in order,” he said. Easley also called on lawmakers to cut $l5O million in “special interest loopholes” he had identified and give state agencies the budget flexibility to save more money. He also said the Legislature should eliminate at least $750 million in

spending.

Republicans support an across-theboard 3 percent funding cut for each state agency, something they say will end the budget crisis without harming public schools or critical services. For months, ‘handmade

Employees protest Midway decision: Midway Airlines, the only air carri-

er with its main hub at Raleigh-Durham International Airport, filed for bankruptcy Aug. 13, cutting about 700 jobs. The airline canceled shipments of new jets and stopped service of 17 of its 51 aircraft, immediately prompting the cancellation of flights to five cities and the disruption of other flights. Midway president and CEO Robert Ferguson said last week that the airline was seeking a buyer. Employees dismissed following the Aug. 13 Midway Airlines bankruptcy filing say the airline unfairly deprived them of wages for their final work hours. The state Department of Labor has said that withholding the wages could violate state law and has planned to meet with Midway officials to discuss the matter. But Karen Wing, an airline spokesperson, said federal law prohibits the company CREAMS

from paying the employees and that any state law that says otherwise would clash with the federal law. Midway secured a $l5 million loan Wednesday from Wexford Management, a Connecticut venture-capital fund, and officials said they would file a petition with the court to allow some of the money to be used to repay the approximately $600,000 in back wages, sick leave and medical pay it owes its employees. The loan will also keep some of Midway’s planes aloft for the time being. “Ifthings work out, it should carry us through,” said Robert Ferguson, Midway’s president and chief executive officer. “We got more than what we were trying to get, and we’re very pleased to get it.” The bankruptcy filing came at the end of one ofthe busiest months in RDU history, when the airport serviced about 525,000 passengers. Midway was three weeks behind payments to the airport, totaling about $935,000 in debt.

First Union, Wachovia merge;

Following a lengthy battle between First Union Corp. and SunTrust Banks Inc., Wachovia Corp. shareholders approved a $14.6 billion merger Aug. 3 with First

Union. The new bank will retain the Wachovia name and be based in

Charlotte. It will serve as the nation’s

fourth-largest bank with $328.6 billion in assets as of Mar. 31,19 million customers on the East Coast and 90,000 employees. The Federal Reserve approved the merger Aug. 13, after the two banks promised to sell 38 branches, including 24 in North Carolina, to assuage concerns about preserving competition. All

but one of the branches will be sold for an undisclosed price to National Commerce Financial, a Memphis, Tenn.based bank which owns Durham’s Central CarolinaBank. During negotiations,

SunTrust had attempted to persuade Wachovia shareholders to call a meeting to change the company’s bylaws so as to name SunTrust-leaning directors. But First Union protested, and both houses of the North Carolina General Assembly then passed legislation making it more difficult for shareholders to call

such meetings. Also during the negotiations, Wachovia bought about $550 milhon worth of First Union stock—a measure which could have been a factor in the 13 percent increase in the value ofFirst Union’s stock. That increase helped narrow the gap between the higher SunTrust bid and the

First Union bid.

Administrators hope bus will foster community BUS from page 1

p.m. Sundays. Buses began running Tuesday about once every 30 minutes, and every hour on weekends; the full schedule is available at www.robertsonscholars.org/bus.shtml. Mlyn expressed hope that by facilitating everyday interactions, the buses will increase the feeling of community between the often-intense rival schools. “There’s a whole variety of interactions that don’t take place because of transportation and parking problems,” he said. The Robertson Scholars Program—which is picking up the $340,000 tab for the bus system—begins this fall after a $24 million shared gift to the two universities last year from Julian Robertson, a 1955 UNC graduate, and his wife Josie. One of their sons

graduated from Duke in 1998, and another son graduated from UNC in the spring. Aside from taking classes on both campuses, the 30 students will participate in a number of other activities designed to build community along Tobacco Road, including service-learning opportunities and

bus service is a vital part ofmaking this happen.” Some students unaffiliated with the scholarship program have already begun to make plans around the bus system. Dan Kselman, a first-year graduate student in political science at Duke, cited an agreement his department has with its UNC counterpart where graduate students can take seminars at either school. “I go to Duke and am planning to take some classes at UNC, so [the buses] make sense,” he said. “I don’t want to pay for a car, and ideologically it’s best not to pollute the environment by driving.” Joyce Wagner, who drives one of the Robertson buses, said that so far her trips have averaged only about two passengers She added, “I think there’ll be more, especially

bi-weekly dinners. The official launch of the bus system is set for 9:30 a.m. next Friday, when President Nan Keohane and UNC Chancellor James Moeser will ceremonially board a bus at Duke and ride the 10.7 miles to Chapel Hill. “We fully expect this remarkable academic program to build on the many collaborative relationships that already exist between our two fine institutions and to promote interaction between our student bodies,” Keohane said in a statement. “The

Student Affairs plans for expansion Keohane offers MONETA from page 1 In the long run, Moneta wants to look at social alternatives on campus and ensure that they have enough money and space. As Moneta settles in, Student Affairs administrators say they are excited to work with him in person and get to know his philosophy. “Everyone is very eager to find out what his style is and what his goals are,” saidAssistant Vice President for Student Affairs Sue Wasiolek, also interim dean of Student Development. “People are sitting in anticipation of change, but we have no idea what that change will be.” One thing Moneta is sure to be working on in the next few months is the consolidation of all residential services, following the move of Housing Management from the purview of Auxiliary Services to that of Student Affairs. With a $25 million budget, Housing Management oversees maintenance, housekeeping and key service. Within Student Affairs already, the Office of Student Development administers housing assignments and the resident adviser, first-year advisory counselor and faculty-in-residence programs. The move brings all these services together. “We have every reason to believe this will be a positive change, and we will be looking forward to establishing a good relationship with Student Affairs,” said Fidelia Thomason, director of Housing Management. Executive Vice President Tollman Trask said the move made sense, given Moneta’s experience with housing as associate vice president for campus services at the University of Pennsylvania. Trask has not ruled out further additions to Student Affairs under Moneta, who also controlled dining at Penn. Dining there, however, follows a more traditional board plan model, in contrast to Duke’s retail model of privatization. We’ve talked about it,” Trask said. “Housing’s the one that’s clearly obvious right now.” Moneta said he will explore expansion in the future but has no concrete plans. “I don’t come here with a shopping list,” he said. “I came here with a concept—that is, a more seamless ex-

� CONVOCATION from page 6 Those comments come on the heel of broad discussions about diversity on campus, most recently sparked by demands made on the administration by the Duke Student Movement.

Christoph Guttentag, director of undergraduate admissions, noted that the incoming class is the most diverse in Duke’s history and that each student was chosen “carefully, deliberately and individually.” Keohane, however, warned that diversity must be accompanied by teamwork across all cultural lines of Duke students. “Having all those diverse folks around doesn’t do your education any good unless you take advantage of it—learning from people whose experiences are quite different from your own [and] opening your mind to the possibilities ofbeing human in very diverse ways,” she said. Keohane informed students of new initiatives they will have the opportunity to enjoy. The new Robertson Scholars Program bus now running regularly between Duke and Chapel Hill will make taking classes at the University of North Carolina at THAD PARSONS/THE CHRONICLE

LARRY MONETA took over as vice president for student affairs this summer and plans to make his division more efficient. perienceMoneta will have to push that agenda through the senior-level administration, a task that has proven tedious to previous vice presidents for student affairs. But he says he is not too worried. “I’ve never had trouble being heard,” he said. “It’s an arrogant statement, but a compelling argument gets heard.... I’m not going to spend a lot of time fighting for status.”

Spaces are available in these courses for fall semester in the Department of Theater Studies

Chapel Hill easier. In addition, the Class of 2005 will be the first to move together from East Campus to West Campus, given the scheduled opening of the West-Edens Link next August. “The speech motivated me not to be part of the crowd because we have the opportunity to do something different,” said freshman Sarah Wingate. Keohane also stressed setting high standards and allowing nothing to interfere with dignity and self-respect. Honor Council President David Chokshi, a junior, also spoke at the convocation, encouraging first-year students to sign the honor code, citing its importance to “true learning.”

Islamic feminist vows to contest Egyptian hisba law � SADAAWI from page 7

African Languages and Literature after fleeing to Duke from 1993 to 1996 with her husband. “She had found that she was on the death list of the Islamic fundamentalists, and one day she came home and found that there were guards around her house,” said Miriam Cooke, professor of Asian and African languages and literature. “It wasn’t that she was afraid of the fundamentalists, but she was particularly concerned that the government had

decided that they wanted to put her under house arrest.” Cooke called Malcolm Gillis, thendean of the faculty of arts and sciences, and arranged for Saadawi and her husband to come as visiting faculty to Duke, where Saadawi did not receive instant support. “She’s an extremely controversial person,” Cooke said. “Very outspoken, I think that reactions to her were polarizing. You cannot be indifferent to her.... There were some people completely enchanted, some students completely

transformed by the experience of having her here. I think for a lot of us faculty here, she was a very powerful, catalytic presence. There were some students who found her too much.” She returned to Egypt and has since spoken out on topics including sexuality and gender in Islam. She said earlier this year that she opposes the practice of women wearing the veil, polygamy and gender inequalities in inheritance rights. Those statements led Wahsh to declare that Saadawi was denouncing Islam.

Moosa said that while the application of hisba in Egypt was rare, it remains un-

repealed by the Egyptian parliament. The law saw a resurgence in the 1970s when Anwar Sadat amended the Egyptian constitution, declaring that it would be based on Islamic law, allowing fundamentalists to bring hisba back into the legal system. “In short, the future is uncertain,” Moosa said. “The government of Egypt might be reluctant to [repeal hisba] because it doesn’t want to be seen as an anti-Islamic state.”

and an outside company. Moneta said a contract will be signed soon for specialists who will enforce commons room, hallway and stairwell capacities. He also confirmed that the University will begin notifying parents of alcohol abuses when their child’s health is at risk. The policy had been in limbo because of federal regulations, set to take effect in 2003, that protect the privacy of health information. “[The regulations] are very much a consideration, but we’ve got some time to think about them and try how it works,” Moneta said. The most significant change, however, is a near re-writing of alcohol policy regulations. Although the policy still expresses safety as its top priority, it focuses far less on regulations than previously. “I don’t want to spend my time on just policy. I want to focus on positive experiences,” Moneta said. Rather than setting penalties for each specific violation, the alcohol policy now divides restricted behaviors into three less specific categories: underage possession, unsafe or irresponsible behavior and community standards violations. Beginning this fall, all violations will be referred directly to Kacie Wallace, associate dean of student development; Stephen Bryan, assistant dean of student development; and Jeff Kulley, the University’s new alcohol specialist. “Stephen Bryan and I are going to work with Jeff Kulley and look at all the documentation and think about the appropriate response for the violation,” Wallace said. “Does it warrant education, assessment and treatment, restitution, or does it warrant judicial follow-up?” She added that they will employ a variety of criteria—ranging from past offenses to the circumstances of the violation—in determining their response. The changes may be felt most strongly by resident advisers, often the ones responsible for monitoring

student behavior. They will now be required to help students whose health may be at risk. In addition, their role in enforcement will not be to “write up” students, but to “observe, comment and document” their behavior to the Office of Student Development. “I think the perception in the past was that RAs were writing up incidents with the intention that they will be followed up judicially,” Wallace said. “This year our intention was to document the behavior, talk to the student and then we’ll decide—with someone who’s knowledgeable with alcohol affairs—what the appropriate action will be.” RAs offered mixed responses to the changes, with some reacting positively and others not even noticing a change.

“I haven’t really noticed a difference in training

from the previous year,” said Bryan Langlands, a Divinity School student and second-year RA in House P. “It seems to me to be a change of terminology.” John Swingle, a sophomore and first-time RA in Bassett Dormitory, saw the possibility for better relationships between RAs and residents. “I think it’s probably a good idea. This will help students to see you more as a friend than an enemy,” he said. That may be difficult if RAs feel pressure to document, said C.J. Walsh, president of Duke Student Government. “It’s certainly an attitude change for the University,” he said. “Personally I’ve always had a very positive interaction with my RA, and would not like to see that experience diminished by increased RA policing.”

All-time greats return for charity game tonight � Although Grant Hill will not play, the Duke All-Star Charity

� Duke hopes to receive a commitment for its Class of 2006 when forward Shelden Williams visits campus for the weekend’s festivities.

Game will feature some of Duke most well-known players. By PAUL DORAN

From staff reports The men’s basketball team will attempt to receive its fifth commitment for the Class of 2006 when Shelden Williams, a 6-foot-9 forward from Midwest City, Okla. makes his official visit to Duke this weekend.Williams’ visit coincides with the first-annual Duke All-Star Charity Game, which tips off tonight in Cameron at 7 p.m. For weeks, recruiting analysts have speculated that a Williams commitment to Duke is likely. In fact, Williams told analyst recruiting Warren Wilkins of EliteHoopßecruits.com that, “Duke has a pretty solid lead. I am confident in and with Duke.” Shelden Williams If Williams were to select the Blue Devils, he would join a class that is widely regarded as the premiere recruiting class in the country. Duke has already received commitments from shooting guard J.J. Redick, point guard Sean Dockery, forward Michael Thompson, and forward Lee Melchionni. In addition to Williams, Duke also remains in the sweepstakes for Raleigh native Shavlik Randolph, a 6-10 power forward whom Brick Oettinger, a recruiting guru from CNNSI, rates as the fourth-best talent in his class. chronicle file photo Oettinger rates Williams as the 11thGRANT HILL will serve as a coach for the White team in tonight’s Duke All-Star Charity game, ranked player in the country.

The Chronicle

After organizing, inviting and promoting tonight’s All-Star Charity Basketball game, which is set to begin at 7 p.m. in Cameron Indoor Stadium, Grant Hill will not be playing. The most celebrated player in the National Basketball Association to have worn a Duke uniform during his collegiate years will serve as a coach for one of the teams, but because of fear of reinjuring his ankle, which caused him to miss almost all of last season, Hill will not play. Although Hill has been rehabilitating his ankle for quite some time, his employer, the Orlando Magic, are

being very cautious with their super-

star, and do not want to see him re-

injure his ankle. Tonight’s contest was supposed to be his first game back after going down with the injury. However, it remains unclear as to whether Hill had some say or rather, the decision was entirely the Magic’s. “We’re proud of Grant’s continued loyalty to his school, as well as his vast charitable endeavors,” Magic General Manager John Gabriel said in a statement. “I, however, feel that after seeing him workout at the RDV Sportsplex, his return to professional basketball should come within the See ALL-STAR GAME on page 30 �

Gordon emerges from coma, recovering in Baltimore By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

A Duke women’s lacrosse player who was hit by a car earlier this summer is now out of a coma and slowly recovering. Trinity junior Framboise Gordon, who was struck by a car in Chicago July 14 and spent the next month in a coma, is now recovering. “She’s actually making very good progress,” said her father, Ray Gordon. “She’s up here in Baltimore in [Sinai Hospital’s] brain injury ward. She’s talking and

feeding herself.” Gordon was making long strides last week; Her father said that she was getting speech, physical and occupational therapy twice a day and that therapists are hopeful for a full recovery, which will still likely be a long process. Kerstin Kimel, Gordon’s coach, spoke with her for a half-hour earlier in the week and was hopeful, too. “She, in the last two weeks, has made incredible strides. Her long-term memory is outstanding,” Kimel said. “She’s able to write a lot and now, obviously, she’s able to talk.” Gordon was in a full coma for technically only

two weeks, after which she was able to respond to others. Recently, however, she has begun the transition to recovery. “It was just unbelievable because I had gone to Chicago twice and we weren’t sure she was going to make it,” Kimel said. “It was really bad.” Kimel said that Gordon will likely return home Sept. 8, with about six hours a day of outpatient therapy and that she could possibly return to Duke next semester. “She has seen pictures and videos of herself from Chicago and can’t believe she’s actually lived,” she said. “She doesn’t remember anything that happened to her.” Kimel also said that a number of Gordon’s friends and teammates stopped by to see her at the end ofthe summer on their way back to campus. Kimel said that she thought it was unlikely Gordon would be playing lacrosse next season, but that her playing status was the furthest thing from her mind right now as Gordon continues her recovery. “We’re not even thinking that far ahead,” she said. “Maybe she will be able to return second semester to school. I’d be very surprised if she could play this year. If she were to return, I’d be thrilled, but it’s not realistic.”

Boozer, Duhon lead Team USA to victory in Japan By CRAIG SAPERSTEIN The Chronicle

After competing for Team USA this summer, Duke players Chris Duhon, Carlos Boozer and Dahntay Jones are not only national champions, they are world champions. Paced by Boozer, who led his team in scoring and rebounding, and Duhon, whose asserted himself as captain of the squad of college all-stars, the USA basketball team went 8-0 and took home the gold medal in the FIBA World Championship for Young Men in Saitama, Japan earlier this month. Team USA defeated Croatia 89-80 Aug. 12 to culminate their undefeated tournament run, which was highlighted by a 19-point, 14-assist effort by Duhon, who closed out Croatia with a three-

pointer with less than a minute remaining to put his team up by four points. “I felt, as captain ofthe team, we were going to win or lose through me,” Duhon said after the contest. “I was willing to make whatever plays necessary for us to win. Thank God I made the right plays and it just gave that little cushion that we needed for us to be victorious.” If recent history is any indication, the experience of playing the world’s best young talent should be a valuable one for the Blue Devil trio, as many Duke players, including Jason Williams last summer, showed visible improvement after a summer of international competition. Boozer, who was cut from last year’s squad, proved that he will be difficult to handle in the upcoming season after leading Team USA with 15.9 points per game and 8.0 rebounds per game. And Duhon, who is often lost in the shadow ofhis fellow backcourt mate

Williams, demonstrated confident leadership as the captain of the team, not to mention, deadly shooting from the perimeter throughout the tournament. “It’s kind of good for me to go out and show what I can do,” Duhon said. “I might have surprised some people with how well I did, just because of my play last season. But being in Jason’s shadow is no problem; it’s given me the opportunity to learn from one of the best point guards to ever play this game. I like being in his shadow a little bit, but I’m also a pretty good player myself.” While Boozer and Duhon enhanced their resumes by serving as key compo-

nents of the Team USA victory, Jones, who led all players in scoring at the team tryouts in early July, was largely a nonfactor once the tournament commenced. The New Jersey native managed only 4.8 points per game, well below the scoring averages of his Duke teammates, and didn’t even make it off the bench in Team USA’s final three contests. Both Duhon and Boozer were quick to commend USA coach Jim Boeheim for his efforts throughout the competition. However, they disagreed with the Syracuse coach’s decision not to utilize Jones, who garnered significant attention after his solid performance at the tryouts. “It wasn’t like he was doing anything wrong,” Boozer said of Jones’ lackluster World Championship run.” I think he played really well in the practices. I think he brought a lot ofenergy. “I was disappointed in him not playing, because he should have played more, in my opinion. I might be a little biased, but I thought he proved himself in practice.” See TEAM USA on page 35 !�

But by the time Brown was ready to graduate, Goestenkors and her players had transformed Blue Devil women s basketball into a national championship contender which finishing 24-8 in Browns senior season and advanced to the West Regional Finals of the NCAA tournament.

A large part of Brown’s success as an assistant at DePaul stemmed from her positive experience as a player at Duke, and more importantly, as an apprentice under Goestenkors, who turned the Duke program around during Brown’s playing career and took the Blue Devils to the top ofthe college basketball world in the immediate years after Brown’s departure. „

In particular, Brown was impressed with the way that Goestenkors promoted a sense of discipline among her players, and subsequently, Brown tried to indoctrinate this attitude into her disciples at DePaul. In addition, Brown did a lot ofleaming on her own, as Bruno was instrumental in teaching Brown important coaching strategy that she draws upn regularly today. “Being able to go to another college right after leaving here was tough because I knew what I liked about Duke, but it gave me a chance to step away and commgram to another,” Brown said. “There were definitely hat I learned at DePaul that I hope to bring here.

I spoke with Grant and he said he was excited to still be able to participate in the weekend’s activities in Durham. Every aspect of Grant’s progress since his second surgery has been positive and we look forward to him being 100 percent as we head toward training camp.” Without Hill’s athletic presence on the floor, this inauguaral event, which was announced over the summer and whose proceeds will benefit the Duke/Durham Neighborhood Partnership and the Burch Avenue Family Center, will still be packed with former Duke greats. Highlighting the list of those playing in the game include William Avery, Elton Brand and Corey Maggette, all of whom bolted Duke after 1999 to pursue careers in the NBA. In addition, all three members of the Duke

assistant coaching staff—associate head coach Johnny Dawkins and assistants Chris Collins and Steve Wojciechowski—will don Duke uniforms once again. The game also features many members of Duke’s first two national championship squads, including Christian Laettner, Bobby Hurley, Brian Davis and Thomas Hill. And of course, Cameron favorites like

Jay Bilas, Chris Carrawell, Nate James, Danny Ferry, Mike Gminski, Roshown McLeod, and Trajan Langdon

will return as well. The players will be divided into two teams, a Blue Team and a White Team, which will be coached by former Duke players and assistant coaches. Michigan coach Tommy Amaker, Notre Dame coach Mike Brey and Fairfield coach Tim O’Toole will be on the bench for the Blue squad, while Delaware coach David Henderson, Philadelphia 76ers General Manager Billy King and Grant Hill will coach the White

Grant Hill echoed his former coaches comments concerning this feel-good event. “It is a new way to help the Durham community and bring the Duke basketball family together,” Hill said.

The event, which was conceived by Hill, who also serves as the chair of the Duke Basketball Legacy Fund, was approved by the NBA as one of their official charity events for this year. Although the two teams don’t square off against each other until tonight, a players reception and a charity auction was held Thursday night and this morning, a charity golf event was scheduled. “It’s nice that the NBA is helping college,” coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “In fact it’s really nice.

THE NOD

Although Christian Laettner was the best player ever to wear a Duke uniform, Elton Brand is nearly a

decade younger and should be able to dominate Laettner, especially with the help of Mike Gminski. Also, Corey Maggette can beat Chris Carrawell, but Danny Ferry vs. Brian Davis should be interesting.

WHITE

Steve Wojciechowski and Johnny Dawkins are a powerful combination, but they are still surpassed by Trajan Langdon and William Avery. Not only did Avery and Langdon play together during the 1999 season, but they also play in the NBA, whereas Dawkins and Wojo are retired.

BLUE

Both teams are equally stocked with legends of Duke basketball, but while the Blue Team has subs like Alaa Abdelnaby, Thomas Hill and Robert Brickey, the White Team boast youngsters like Nate James, Ricky Price, Jeff Capel and Chris Collins. Normally people like experience, but the quicker youth should win this one.

WHITE

There are few intangibles in a feel-good charity event between teams that have never played each other and are evenly balanced. But should one want a touchy feely story look to White Team coach Grant Hill who decided not to play in tonight’s game to keep from reaggravating his injury. Win one for Grant!

WHITE

With evenly balanced teams there’s no clear cut winner and it looks like either team could come out on top. Even though the White Team takes three out of four categories, the Blue Team has better guard play which has always been the staple of coach Mike Krzyzewski’s Duke teams. In typical Duke fashion the guards overcome Brand’s dominance inside to take the inauguaral game. Blue wins 62-56 —Compiled by Paul Doran

UNIVERSITY

Join the national effort to improve math education this fall by becoming a tutor in the America Counts program. Modeled after the very successful America Reads Challenge, America Counts lets volunteers and university students in the federal work-study program tutor elementary-school students in basic math.

America Counts FAQs Who can tutor? America Counts welcomes undergraduate and graduate student tutors. Volunteers tutor two hours each week. Students eligible for federal work-study tutor up to six hours each week. The rate of pay for undergraduate work-study tutors is $lO per hour. For graduate students, the rate is $l3.

Where do tutors work? At one of five conveniently located elementary schools

When do I tutor? America Counts tutors work with children during or after school, Monday through Friday.

How do I apply? Call the Community Service Center, 684-4377, or download an application, http://csc.studentaffairs.duke.edu/. Return it to the CSC no later than September 19 if you are applying through the federal work-study program, and September 21 if you are applying to be a volunteer.

Why be a math tutor? Students need solid math skills in the information age. Low income students who take algebra and geometry attend college at three times the rate of those who do not. Math teaches students ways of dunking that apply in every workplace. Math tutors are great role models. Local schools need math tutors. It’s fun!

Blue Devils enjoy opportunity to play together in tourney TEAM USA from page 26 Although reluctant to criticize Boeheim, Duhon expressed similar sentiments to his Duke teammate. “He was behind some really great players, but Dahntay is just as good or better than any ofthose players,” Duhon said. “I don’t know, I guess it was just Coach’s decision, so I really don’t want to comment on it.” Nonetheless, all three players agree that the trip was educational on many levels, as they played against players from all over the world of different skills and sizes, an experience that is only seen in international competitions. For instance, teams like Croatia featured strong, physical guards that liked to post up Team USA’s smaller guards, while teams such as Japan and South Korea had few players who were taller than the United States’ guards. In fact, both Duhon and Boozer said that the only aspect that all of the teams seemed to have in common was that both their guards and big men were proficient in three-point shooting.

In addition to seeing some of the best players from across the globe, the three Blue Devils got a glimpse of

the best domestic college players by playing alongside potential All-American like Kansas center Nick Collison, Connecticut forward Caron Butler, UCLA swingman Jason Kapono, and St. Joseph’s point guard Jameer Nelson. Boozer enjoyed going up against the physical Collison in practice, while Duhon always had his hands full with Nelson. Likewise, Jones was often challenged by Butler and Kapono in practice, which may have been a factor in his reduced playing time. But most importantly, the players believe that their experience playing as a unit of Blue Devils will be quite beneficial for the upcoming season. “I think a lot of my assists were to Carlos,” Duhon said. “It was kind of funny actually, because Coach [Boeheim] joked that I don’t just have to look for Carlos. We have a better feel for each other and I think that’s going to help us out even more during the season.” CHRIS DUHON captained Team USA to its gold medal victory.

Big Unit breaks MLB record with 4th 300-strikeout season By ALAN ROBINSON The Associated Press

cWwi ‘‘a*'

He D’backs 5 PITTSBURGH is the most dominatPirates 1 ing pitcher of his era, yet Randy Johnson had rarely been so intimidating, so impossible to hit, so downright scary.

Or, for a brief but decisive sequence of pitches, so bad. Johnson struck out 16 in seven innings to become the first pitcher to strike out 300 in four straight seasons, only to see his eight-game winning streak end as Kevin Young’s tworun homer led the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 5-1 victory over Arizona on Thursday night.

Johnson was seemingly en route to one of the best starts of his career, working on a one-hitter with 15 strikeouts—including the previous six batters—before walking Jason Kendall with two outs in the seventh. Young then jumped on a 1-1 fastball, sending it deep into the left-field seats for his 12th homer. As he rounded first base, Young shook his head—not in disbelief of what he had done, but perhaps at how good Johnson had been. “What happened was he was just too good,” Young said. “We weren’t getting any hits. He was getting so many strikeouts. It’s hard to keep pitching that way, to keep striking out that many. You could tell he was starting to get tired because he started leaving

pitches over the plate.” Until Young’s homer, the Pirates had hit only two balls out of the infield, including Brian Giles’ groundball single with two outs in the first. Eight of Johnson’s final nine outs were strikeouts. “I threw a fastball to Kevin Young, he’s a good fastball hitter, and it just

got too much of the plate,” Johnson said after the game. “He hit a good

pitch, my best pitch,”

Just when it seemed he might threaten the major-league record of 20 strikeouts in nine innings that he tied May 8 at Cincinnati, Johnson (17-6) was. sent to his second loss in the past three months. “I know he’s been pitching great lately, but I thought he had a little something extra,” catcher Damian

Miller said. “Even in the bullpen, he

was throwing gas, with everything down, I knew coming out of the bullpen it could be a short night for those guys But after Young homered for the Pirates’ first runs since a 4-2 victory Tuesday over Curt Schilling—they were shut out Wednesday by Albie ”

Lopez—a suddenly unglued Johnson gave up singles to rookies Craig Wilson and Mendy Lopez ahead ofpinch-hitter Keith Osik’s two-run double. Asked if anything changed during the seventh, Johnson said, “Not really. I just threw a fastball that Kevin Young got hold of. The momentum kind of shifted a little bit because McKnight was pitching so well.” Overshadowed most of the night by Johnson’s remarkable strikeout pace, Tony McKnight (2-3), one of four rookies in the Pirates’ lineup, pitched seven innings of four-hit shutout ball to overcome five walks and win for the first time in five starts with Pittsburgh. Brian Giles made it 5-0 with his 30th homer in the eighth, a solo shot off Bret Prinz. The Diamondbacks scored their lone run in the ninth on a sacrifice fly by Tony Womack off Josias Manzanillo. Mike Fetters got the final out for his fifth save, getting Mark Grace to bounce out weakly with the

bases loaded.

Johnson was lifted after throwing

114 pitches in seven innings. He left with 303 strikeouts for the season, moving him past Phil Niekro for ninth place on the all-time list with

3,343 strikeouts. Johnson’s loss ended a six-game winning streak against the Pirates that began when he returned to the NL with the Astros in 1998. Since then, he was 6-0 with four complete games and a 1.07 ERA in six starts against the Pirates, who hadn’t scored

in 29 innings against him until Young’s homer. Johnson struck out the side on nine pitches in the sixth inning to tie a major league record held by 31 others. The last strikeout of that inning, of rookie Jack Wilson, was Johnson’s 300th of the season. Until this season, Johnson (19982000) and Nolan Ryan (1972-74) were the only pitchers with three consecu-

tive 300-strikeout seasons.

Farewell to Helms

With

Jesse Helms’ announcement Wednesday that he will not

pursue a sixth term in the Senate, the state of North Carolina—and the nation—is about to lose a political legend. In five terms since 1972, the Republican senator has endured many tough campaigns to become the longest-serving senator in North Carolina history. Unfortunately, his political career is haunted by the extreme convictions that have kept him from rising to the level of a true statesman. Helms did the right thing in not pursuing a sixth term in office.At the age of 79, he put his personal ego aside and ensured that the people’s elected senators will be physically and mentally up to the task. But Helms’ departure is even more important in that it signals the next generation to step forward and assume its place in leading both the state and the country. North Carolina has seen a large influx of new residents over the past decade and is not the same state in which Helms began his political career. Hopefully, his successor will better

reflect the values of today’s North Carolinians. Helms, to his core, is a man devoted to his constituents. He has taken pride in meeting with over 100,000 youths from the state during his tenure in office and even highlighted that feat as one of his top accomplishments Wednesday night. Such meetings were part of a greater commitment to helping government work for North Carolinians from the local to the national level. In the process, Helms has fought hard to help farmers and, in recent years, victims of Hurricane Fran and Hurricane Floyd. Seemingly, no request was too big or too small for Helms’ office. In the Senate, Helms has been a key player in foreign affairs. He has driven the U.S. embargo of Cuba, been at the forefront of defending Taiwan from mainland China and defending other nations against communism. Third World debt relief had made little progress until Helms lent his support. Few doubt that Helms believes in what he stands for, and he has the candor to voice those beliefs. These stated values, however, reflect an aging, out-of-touch man whose political views lie beyond the point of respectful differences in opinion. His record on minority and homosexual issues is appalling. At the same time, his isolationist attitudes toward the United Nations, trade and other international policies come from a period America has long left behind. The oft-touted convictions that define the legend of Helms have impeded his tangible success. True leaders have the pragmatism to compromise and gain something instead of standing firm and losing everything. For instance, two North Carolinians could be sitting on the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals—a circuit in need of extra judges—if Helms would only acquiesce and allow former Clinton appointee James Wynn to be appointed along with Bush appointee Terrence Boyle. His candor has also sometimes embarrassed both his state and his party. Perhaps the lowest point was a 1994 suggestion that thenPresident Bill Clinton would need a bodyguard should he come to North Carolina. Such conduct was unfitting and unpatriotic from a U.S. senator toward the president. But the examples do not stop there. In 1990, his campaign for reelection stirred up base racial animosity over the heated issue of affirmative action. In many ways, Helms’ conduct is emblematic of a man who served the people of his state without representing them as a leader.

COMME NTARY

Middle East ignores foundations for peace In an age in which wars are not declared, the most intense conflicts can go virtually unnoticed. Even if Americans are aware of such an event, it is still a far off problem that never truly hits home, however tragic it may be. This has been true of all current conflicts, with one glaring exception: the current situation in the Middle East. Throughout the cataclysmic 11 months of bloodshed in the region, Americans

have grown increasingly interested and attuned to current events. Along with this

concern comes a need for a greater understanding of the Abdullah conflict, its key players and AhArian its vital stakes. As in every conflict, there exist two sides. In this case, one is defined as a state, essentially a government, complete with a military—one of

the most powerful in the world at that, attributable partly to $5 billion annually in U.S. aid. The other side is defined as a people, sparsely distributed over unspecified territories, irrational in behavior, habitually resorting to violence to vent certain frustrations. The whole people are in turn often personified in one man, known to be dishonest, stubborn and badly in need of a shave. Thus I give you, Israel versus the Palestinians (specifically, Yasser Arafat). From the start, it is clear that the two sides are essentially unequal in almost every way imaginable. Whether it is leadership, military ability or economic backing, Israel the state has a definite advantage over the Palestinian people. What most people cannot seem to comprehend is what created such a tumultuous situation, a question rarely addressed by much of the media. While Ariel Sharon’s unholy visit to the Haram Al-Sharif may have been the trigger, the real answer lies in the so-called peace process which began with the Oslo Peace Accord signed in 1993. The past eight years have produced an increasingly intolerable situation for the Palestinians, while giving the Israeli government the green light to pursue many of its projects. Settlement building, for example, which has been repeatedly condemned by the United States and the international community, reached its height during the peace process. More settlements were built in a decade than the entire 40 years prior combined. As aresult, Palestinians continued to be displaced. Even freedom of travel became increasingly restricted, as the Gaza Strip was completely surrounded by barbed wire, making it a virtual prison for its 1.3 million inhabitants. All the while the peace process was progressing, the public debate went from the termination of Israel’s illegal occupation of over three

decades (the second longest in modem history) to that of Israel graciously offering the Palestinians a state to call their own under conditions and guidelines to be set by Israel and accepted by the Palestinians. This situation culminated in the Camp David summit in July 2000. The popular story from that failed meeting which would eventually result in the complete breakdown oftalks and resumption of violence was that thenPrime Minister Ehud Barak made “the most generous Israeli offer to date,” only to have it rejected by Arafat, leaving him solely to blame for the failed talks as well as the current violence. A top advisor of former President Bill Clinton during Camp David has recently spoken out to shatter that myth, stating that Barak and Clinton are just as responsible for the failure, by offering the Palestinians an unrealistic plan that would carve up the West Bank into dozens of Palestinian enclaves within Israeli territories, while ignoring concerns regarding the refugee problem and the final status of Jerusalem, declared Israel’s “eternal and undivided” capital after its illegal capture in 1967. Fast forward to today, almost a year after the initial outbreak of violence. Over 600 Palestinian civilians are dead at the hands of the Israeli military machine which has included heavily armed soldiers, tanks, air-to-surface missiles, helicopter gunships and F-16 fighter jets. One hesitates to determine what is more appalling, the 10-year-old girl shot to death on her way to school, or the “Made in America” label on the gun that killed her. Many more thousands of children have been maimed for life as a result of American-supplied Israeli weapons. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate has reached 50 percent, with nearly a million Palestinians now facing starvation. Faced with such intolerable conditions, hopeless and desperate Palestinians resort to stones as their only source of self-defense, while in a few extreme circumstances some respond to their horrific condition by committing the ultimate act of despair, blowing themselves up among innocents. As tragic and unfathomable as such a situation may be, the root cause must ultimately be addressed, for if Arafat is truly condoning such actions as Israel has charged, they would ultimately not exist were it not for the impossible situation created by Israel itself. Justice and freedom, two values we as Americans know very well, must be respected and observed in all places, the Middle East being no exception. The formula for peace is as simple as that.

Abdullah Al-Arian is a Trinity senior.

On the record I’ve never had trouble being heard. It’s an arrogant statement, but a compelling argument gets heard Larry Moneta on his new post as vice president for student affairs (see story, page one)

That means that your class will be the first class to move together from East Campus onto West Campus and inaugurate a new way of living at Duke. You will be the pioneers who get to figure out how to use these new spaces, make them livable, make them your own. This year, you’ll have a chance to participate in decisions about how that space will be used, and then you’ll be the first ones to enjoy it and to set the patterns for many classes to come.... Another way in which your class will pioneer is in building new ties with our neighbor university only 11 miles away in Chapel Hill. Nobody expects the fierce athletic rivalries to dissipate; Carolina will still be our major rival in almost every sport. But it has always seemed a shame that only graduate students and faculty take advantage of the intellectual opportunities at our neighboring university, one of the finest public universities in the nation. For the first time this year, a bus now goes back and forth regularly between West Campus and Chapel Hill, every halfhour all day and into the evening. This means that you can now easily do something that your predecessors rarely did: You can take classes or seminars at UNC to complement the academic offerings at Duke.... The bus is for everyone on both campuses, faculty, students and staff, and I encourage you to use it 500n.... I hope you’ll serve as pioneers in finding your way westward to double the array of opportunities available in your university education. Finally, one of the most crucial places where your pioneering spirit matters is in carrying out one of the main goals of Duke University’s new strategic plan; to find new “creative ways to promote values of diversity and make the climate more welcoming for all members ofthe community,” We believe... that the best living and learning environment includes people of diverse backgrounds on many dimensions—ethnic, religious, socio-economic, in terms of race and sexual orientation and culture and geography. But having all those diverse folks around doesn’t do your education any good unless you take advantage of it—learning from people whose experiences are quite different from your own, opening your mind to the possibilities of being human in very diverse ways. We need to find new pathways through this uncertain realm we call diversity. It can be contentious, tense and sometimes scary; but the rewards of having the courage and commitment to explore that territory can be great. And we very much need your help in doing so. That means being willing to take some risks, which is part of all pioneering; but we cannot make these valuable things happen to you; you must be part of making them happen yourself, and all of us will benefit. Members of the Class of 2005, as you break new ground and sow new seeds at Duke, we hope you will find this climate conducive to your flourishing as a person. There are many people here who are eager to help you flourish. They include other students, faculty members, advisors and administrators. I urge you to take advantage of their advice, their interest, their support. The pioneering journey we call a university education will be challenging; it will occasionally be exhilarating and occasionally exhausting, but it will stretch your mind in ways that it has never been stretched before—in ways that should ultimately be pleasurable and rewarding for the rest of your life. I look forward to sharing this journey with you, and I wish each and

Freshmen meet their roommates, hope for best As students begin adapting to college life, they find themselves adj usting to living with a roommate By JOHN BUSH The Chronicle

Roommates. Like them or hate them, you’ll probably still have to live with them. In fact, many freshmen do not meet the person they will live with for the next year until they arrive on campus. “The first time I ever talked to him was when I got here,” freshman Ross Miller said of his roommate. “It’s worked out pretty well though. He even brought a TV, and I wasn’t expecting that.” Many other members of the Class of 2005, however, were able to get in touch with their roommates either through e-mail or over the telephone and coordinate supplies. “She brought the microwave and the TV,” freshman Chasity Roberts said. “We’ll split the -

telephone and cable.” However, not all relationships will go as smoothly once the novelty wears off. Assistant Dean of Student Development Bill Burig noted that relationships often become strained at specific times during the year. Burig said that in particular, students find themselves under more outside stress during exams; at this time, they are more likely to request a room reassignment*

Because more students matriculated than anticipated, there are no available rooms to move students into, Burig said. A freeze on room change requests will be in place until Sept. 10. “We want to ensure very much that [the student who makes the request is] communicating with the roommate about the issue,” said Burig. He added that students can get support from resident advisers, area coordinators and other student

development staff members. “I think that it works out pretty well,” said Ashley Colburn, now a junior and a resident adviser in Trent Drive Hall. “There are always things you’ll find out later.... You’re always going to have conflicts.” Sophomore Chad Leister, a first-year advisory councillor, remembers calling his roommate on the telephone to discuss move-in. He was later relieved to find that his roommate was easy to get along with. “It doesn’t always work for some people. We were just really easygoing,” Leister said, adding that he found it effective to approach his roommate as soon as a problem arose.

JOHN BUSH/THE CHRONICLE

FRESHMAN RACHEL DECKER (right) picks up her computer with her father from Blue Devil Delivery Service inside Lilly Library. Students were able to pre-order textbooks and computers from the service. For some students who have been through the ordeal ofhaving a roommate, Duke orientation may be a little simpler. Freshman Cindy Yee, for example, first adapted to life with a roommate four years ago when she went to boarding school. While some freshmen will run into serious disagreement with the personalities of their room-

mates, sophomore Karl Mischke thinks they are

probably the exception as opposed to the rule, “Most people get along pretty well,” Mischke said. But while freshmen may have reason to fear future conflicts with their roommates, more immediate dormitory matters lay before them. “I kind ofexpected a small room,” freshman Ruby Lekwauwa said, “and I got one.”

Meet your DSG officials Matthew Slovik for Facilities and Athletics

C.J. Walsh

Vice President

President Walsh is the chief liaison between the undergraduate student body and the administration. The senior, former CEO of Devil’s Delivery Service, says he plans to bring his business sense to student government. Prior to his election, Walsh had virtually no DSG experience, serving as one of two students on the Upperclass Residential Life Review Committee. But he says his experiences outside DSG will help him bring a fresh approach to the job. Walsh has already begun making changes. The Legislature will now hold weekly meetings, as opposed to the traditional biweekly meetings. In addition, Walsh hopes cabinet members will serve on legislative committees, something they were previously not required to do.

Abhijit Prabhu

The senior will run Legislature meetings and supervise legislators on their individual projects. A longtime DSG veteran, Ensign took his position mid-year, after senior Daryn Dodson resigned and was reelected in the spring. Ensign has served as vice president for academic affairs and chair of the Student Organizations Finance Committee.

Joshua Jean-Baptiste Vice President for Student Affairs

The 11-member organization Eng leads allocates about $400,000 annually to various student organizations, ranging from student clubs to intramural sports. The money comes from a fee students pay at the beginning of each academic year. Eng, a junior, was appointed by former president Jordan Bazinsky, after then-SOFC chair Drew Ensign took over as executive vice president.

Carrie Johnson Vice President for Community Interaction

Jean-Baptiste is a liaison between administrators and undergraduates on student-related issues. The junior hopes to focus on changing the University’s social atmosphere, in light of the recently revised alcohol policy. He has served as Craven Quadrangle president and is an active member of

Meet your governor, Mike Easley

Mike Easley, who served as

state attorney general from 1993 to 2000, was elected governor last November after defeating Republican Richard Vinroot, former mayor of Charlotte. Easley, a Democrat, ran a campaign focused on improving North Carolina’s schools and public health care. He also hopes to begin a state lottery. Fighting for citizen rights to medical care is a logical extention for Easley, who focused his energies as attorney general on fighting the tobacco industry and protecting citizens from consumer fraud. Easley is a firm proponent of patients’ rights, including the right to sue once patients’ appeal for service has been denied by their health care provider. With education, Easley wants to further develop the widely acclaimed Smart Start program, which was created by his forerunner, Gov. Jim Hunt. The program aims to give underpriveleged children social, medical and educational attention be-

fore they enter kindergarten, so that they will be prepared to compete with children of wealthier backgrounds. The governor hopes to shrink class sizes, and is firmly opposed to any school voucher program, arguing that it would lead to a lack of accountability within the education system. Easley’s proposal for a lottery drew some support in the General Assembly, and it may be sent to a referendum in the future. Currently Easley is engaged in a political battle with the General Assembly to balance the state’s new budget. While Republicans would like to cut public spending by 3 percent, and the more liberal members of the legislature would like to increase income taxes and perhaps tobacco taxes to balance the books, Easley and some Democrats in the legislature have proposed a one cent sales tax increase. They believe the increase will provide state coffers with a sufficient $6OO million.

Campus offers numerous, diverse dining options

Upperclassmen reflect on the University’s eateries, selecting their favorites and their not-so-favorites By MARTIN BARNA The Chronicle

Pop quiz: You are a freshman, it is dinner time and you are hungry—but you are on West Campus, far away from the all-you-can-eat paradise of the Marketplace. What do you eat and will it be any good? According to junior Suzanne Lieb, there’s one answer: The Loop. “I prefer eating at The L00p.... It’s a sit-down dining experience. It’s not exactly upscale, but it is nicer than other places on campus.” While The Loop may not be “upscale,” Lieb prefers its semi-gourmet pizzas, hamburgers and salads to the batter-dipped cuisine offered at Chick-fil-A, which she says “gets old quickly.” Not to degrade the chicken sandwich giant too much, Lieb added quickly, “I don’t think there’s anything really bad on campus.” Junior Natasha Hanshaw could not disagree more. The junior describes Duke’s dining as “limited.” “There’s lots of fast food like burgers and McDonald’s, but there’s no nice f00d... and we don’t realize it, but it’s all really expensive,” she said. Asked to name the best place to eat on campus, Hanshaw said she preferred Alpine Bagels and Brews, but not for any particular reason. She feels that Duke needs to offer more healthy food, like pasta, and less food that looks and tastes like the golden arches. Her sentiments were echoed by senior Jake Anderson, who attempted to sum up the Duke dining experience with one phrase: “If the Oak Room is supposed to be the upper echelon of dining, that’s a pretty sad characterization of dining on campus.” While he faults Duke for offering subpar food at its top dining establishment, referring to the Oak Room’s tomato soup as “ketchup in a bowl,” Anderson does compliment Duke—especially the Great Hall—for trying. ‘You gotta give the Pits credit for making an effort,” he said, citing attempts by the Great Hall in recent

THE LOOP, which opened late 2000, offers a range of salads, pizzas, hot sandwiches and burgers years to bring in Indian food, Middle Eastern fare and sushi from local restaurants. Anderson refuses to eat at McDonald’s, citing health as a. concern. He also questioned how Duke measures the success of a dining establishment. “At McDonald’s and at Chick-fil-A, you have these same few people who go there every day with one foot in the grave and one hand on a Big Mac.... These places are making money off their regular customers, but profit does not indicate student happiness,” he said. Brian Ash, a senior, agreed, but also said he had heard that as bad as Duke’s dining may be, it still is much better than other universities’ dining options. “I’m a relatively picky eater,” Ash said, “but I always manage to find something.”

But will he find something to consume when ARAMARK Corp. opens its doors next week? Last spring, the University offered food-services magnate ARAMARK a lucrative deal to privatize the Great Hall, the Marketplace and four other campus eateries. While the Marketplace has already opened to freshmen, the changes to Duke’s Main West Campus dining facility will not be felt until next week. Lieb expressed optimism that ARAMARK would succeed. Tm interested to see what ARAMARK does differently.” Anderson dissented “Institution food is institution food. As long as we are a captive audience, students are going to consume until their food points run out.”

Concerts, movies, shops... Durham has it all ENTERTAINMENT from page 4

Concerts Alltel Pavilion in Raleigh gets most of the big shows in the area, and an eight-concert pass for their lawn seating is a great deal. Big names can also be found in Greensboro and in Chapel Hill’s Dean Dome, but smaller Triangle venues like Cat’s Cradle, Local 506, and the Go! Studios offer the best of the thriving local independent scene. Also, a new jazz club is opening in the old location of Tobacco Roadhouse right in Brightleaf Square.

Movies One thing that the Durham area certainly has a lot of is movie theaters. Friday and Saturday nights, you can find almost any new movie at a number of the local megaplexes. Occasionally, movies opening in limited release will take some time to get to Durham—this summer’s Made took almost a month—but small, independent films like Memento and Sexy Beast can often be found at the Carolina Theatres in Durham and Chapel Hill.

Shops While Durham certainly is not the center of the fashion universe, we dare you to be unable to find a store nearby to satisfy your needs. Shops can be found on Ninth Street and in Brightleaf Square, while Northgate and South Square malls fill in almost everything you miss from home.

Recreation

NORTHGATE MALL (left) offers the tradtional fair of department stores and boutiques freshmen may already be familiar with. The Carolina Theatre (right), screening smaller, independent movies, iis a gem of downtown Durham.

QWcome cAleu/ and Returning Students

Though the Durham Bulls’ season is justending during the first few weeks of school, watching the team that inspired the classic film Bull Durham is always a great and cheap way to enjoy an evening; we recommend the $3.50 outfield seats. For those who found enough room in your cars to bring your golf clubs, Knight’s Play Golf in Apex is worth the 40-minute trek. The par-3 27-hole course features stadium fighting, and they don’t kick you off until midnight. And of course, no guide to Durham would be complete without a mention of the AMF Bowling Center, which after burning down last winter is currently being rebuilt.
