Bush freezes suspected terrorists’ U.S. holdings Executive order also gives treasury secretary broader power to impose sanctions worldwide By JOSEPH KAHN and DAVID SANGER New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON President George W. Bush ordered an immediate freeze Monday of all assets in the United States of suspected Islamic terrorist groups and individuals and gave the treasury secretary broad new powers to impose sanctions on banks around the world that provide them access to the international financial system. Announcing his executive order in the Rose Garden Monday morning, Bush reached beyond U.S. borders and said any foreign banks that do not co-

operate with American investigators could be cut off from doing business in the United States. Bush’s plan to punish foreign financial institutions that handle terrorists’ money is an echo of his threat to foreign nations that harbor terrorists themselves: if they choose to harbor terrorists’ money they will be treated as hostile entities. “We’re putting banks and financial institutions around the world on notice,” Bush said this morning. “We will work with their governments, ask them to See BUSH on page 8 �

Krzyzewskiville’s new mayor wants

to make life a little easier for his constituents.

Head Line Monitor Greg Skidmore released the 2001-2002 policy for the undergraduate tent city Monday. Although Skidmore has kept most of last year’s popular policy intact, he has implemented several major changes. Most notably, Skidmore will distribute wristbands for the walk-up line at the two tenting games—the University of Maryland Jan. 17 and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill March 3. Skidmore said he would add the Jan. 27 game against the University of Virginia if the team does well. “There was a lot ofconfusion at [last season’s] Carolina game as to who was and was not in the walk-up line, and a lot of people didn’t get in,” said Skidmore, a senior and three-year tenter. This season, wristbands will be handed out at a random, unannounced time between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. Jan. 17 and between noon March 2 and 8 a.m. March 3. Each individual in the walkup line will receive a color-coded bracelet and will also have the option to give the line monitors the name of one other person that temporarily left the line. Those on the absentee list can pick up their bracelets two hours after the initial distribution.

This is the first story in a two-part series exploring religion in the wake of the recent terrorist attacks. Shah was raised Hindu, but she’ll be the first to admit it hasn’t been a very important part of her life. “I don’t do a lot ofreligious things or go to a lot ofreligious functions,” she said. “Just in name, I am Hindu.” So when Shah found herself at the Hindu Bhavan, a Hindu temple in Raleigh, two Fridays ago, she confessed it felt a little strange. “It was so weird. It was a Friday night and we were going to this place where it was just families and not ‘college-;/ at all.” Three days before Shah’s journey to

Neely

the Bhavan, terrorist attacks had rocked New York and Washington, D.C., and the Duke senior said she just didn’t feel like partying. So Shah and her roommate headed to the temple, where there was an event planned in response to the terrorism. “It wasn’t even how it pertained to Hinduism,” she said. “It wasn’t the scriptures that were read or the actual words that

meant anything to me. It was that the temple was packed.... I felt a sense of home and community being there.” All over the United States, Americans are attending religious services and events in record numbers, according to a Sept. 17 article in the New York Times. At Duke, the numbers mirror national trends. According to Pastor Nancy Ferree-Clark of the Congregation at Duke University Chapel, approximately 2,000 people turned out for services on Sunday, Sept. 16—500 more than usual. “It was standingroom only, and there were many new faces,” she said. Roger Kaplan, director of the Freeman Center for Jewish Life, estimated that 100 students attended the Freeman Center for Jewish Live service on the Friday night after the attacks, as

opposed to the normal 30 to 50 students. Last Monday marked the first night of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and though that service is always popular, at least a few of the students in the crowd said they would not have attended had Sept. 11 been just like any other day.

The police charged a man with helping hijackers, while the FAA tightened security By KAREN GULLO The Associated Press

WASHINGTON

Federal authori-

ties have charged the first person with aiding the terrorist hijackers, according to court documents released Monday. Airports and airlines were asked to redo background checks for all workers with access to sensitive areas. Herbert Villalobos was charged in federal court in suburban Virginia with aiding one of the suspected hijackers to fraudulently obtain a Virginia identification card a month before the Sept. 11 attacks. A second man who aided with the I.D.’s is cooperating and was not charged, prosecutors said. The court records disclosed that as many as five

of the hijackers got Virginia cards in the month before the attacks. Meanwhile, the terrorism investigation proceeded on several fronts. Attorney General John Ashcroft disclosed that 352 people have been arrested or detained in the investigation, and an additional 392 people

were being sought for questioning

about the attacks in New York and Washington. “We think they have information that could be helpful to the investigation,” the attorney general told lawmakers. The Federal Aviation Administration grounded farm crop dusters another day for fear they could be used in a biological or chemical attacks—a ban that was being lifted at mid-

night—and also asked airports and airlines to take new precautions with their own workers. The FAA ordered that workers’ identifications immediately be verified, followed by new checks of employment histories and possible criminal backgrounds. The order affects tens ofthousands of airport workers who have access to secure locations in airports, people such as baggage handlers, food service workers and mechanics. “We are requiring revalidation of all airport I.D.’s to make sure that they are genuine, current and belong with the person they are with,” FAA

spokesperson Rebecca Trexler said. See

Students explore living options off Duke’s campus Policies at

apartments vary for undergraduates Some apartment complexes enforce age restrictions, whereas others set a minimum income level for tenants. By REBECCASUN The Chronicle

Undergraduates looking for a place to live off campus may face several policies limiting their ability to rent a unit from one ofthe many apartment communities surrounding Duke. Some complexes, such as Chapel Tower, do not rent to undergraduates at all. This policy was set by the apartment’s management firm, Durham-based Triangle Communities, which also manages nearby Duke Manor and Duke Villa. Triangle Communities designated each of the three apartments, among the oldest in the area, to serve different groups, said Bernadette Crummer, manager for Chapel Tower. For instance, Duke Villa and Duke Manor have co-signer and semester copayment plans for undergraduate tenants. The plans help ensure not only that students will be able to pay their rent, but that they will act responsibly as well. “For the most part, you don’t have a lot ofproblems with the undergrads because they need to have a co-signer, and they don’t want to jeopardize the co-signer,” said Angela Smith, property manag-

their decision to live outside the Goth-

to administrative decisions. “First of all, I think that living on campus in a section of my fraternity was the best thing I did,” Whitehead said. “Now, when I want to hang out in section, I can, but when I want to go home and study, I can do that. It’s a combination of taking the next step, learning more responsibility and independence, and ‘Everyone else is doing it.’” Senior Doug Strasnick, Whitehead’s roommate, agreed. “Living in section with 50 of your friends is a great time, but as you get

for Sheriff Worth Hill. At the meeting, the board recognized Hill for receiving the National Law Officer of the Year Award and approved a budget amendment that allowed his office to use additional federal funding. Les Dasch of the local chapter of the American Legion Forty & Eight—which he described as an honor society within the American Legion—told the commissioners that Hill had beaten 54 other nominees to win the organization’s annual award. “Now we know that you’re the top cop in the nation,” said commissioner Joe Bowser. ‘You certainly deserved that award.” Hill thanked his staff for doing the work for the award. “2001’s going to be hard for me to beat,” he said. Later at the meeting, the commissioners voted to amend the county budget to add additional funding to the sheriffs office from a federal block grant for law enforcement in both the Durham county and city. County Manager Mike Ruffin negotiated an agreement with the city to send 37 percent ofthose funds, or $178,676, to the county sheriff’s office. Nancy Dellinger, a spokesperson for the sheriff’s office, said an advisory board has recommended that the money go toward a new mobile command post, since the current one is 18 years old, as well as better communications and computer equipment. Hill also announced that his office had won reaccreditation from the Commission of Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, making it one of two sheriff’s offices in North Carolina, 77 in the country and 3,088 worldwide to have that honor. “This association sets the standards and we have surpassed those standards again,” he said.

GPSC hears presentation on renovations to Perkins From staff reports In a short meeting last night, the

Graduate and Professional Student Council heard a presentation on the upcoming renovations to Perkins Library. David Ferriero, vice provost of Library Affairs, and Robert Byrd, director of Rare Books, Manuscripts and Special Collections, spoke to the group

about the 72,000-square-foot library addition, mentioning how the renovation will better suit the needs of graduate and professional students. “We want to make sure the library addition accommodates those who spend their lives—or much of their lives—doing research at this institution,” Byrd said. “We have really appreciated the graduate and profession-

al student input thus far.” The group also elected representatives to serve on five University committees and took unopposed nominations for several task forces. GPSC Ombudsperson Will Tyson, a third-year sociology graduate student, also encouraged the group to attend this weekend’s graduate student camp out for this season’s basketball tickets. So far, about 1,700 graduate and professional students have registered, but others who had not signed up could still come, Tyson said. GPSC president Elayne Heisler, a second-year sociology graduate student, closed the brief meeting with enthusiasm. “Under an hour,” Heisler said. “I’mreally good!”

According to Assistant Dean of Student Development Bill Burig, about 21 percent of all upperclassmen lived off campus last school year while attending classes at Duke. That number has risen about one percent per year since 1998. Although Duke has a policy that requires all students to live on campus for at least three years, it has suspended the regulation for the rising junior class every year since the poli-

resident Andrew Mace, who stressed the impact of neighbor complaints. Whitehead agreed. “There is a higher level of respect you have for neighbors,” he said. “Before, I could play loud music at 2 a.m., and I didn’t think a big deal of ticking off a fraternity member, but now if we’re having a party, we’ll go around knocking on peocy’s 1995 implementation. ple’s doors beforehand, inviting them “If we required every student who and telling them that if we get too wanted to live off campus to live on loud, they can just let us know instead campus, we wouldn’t have enough of calling the cops.” space for students who want to live on Judy Carroll, property business campus,” Burig explained. manager for the Belmont, said that However, as dormitories on West mature attitudes eliminate much of Campus prepare for renovations as the reluctance to lease to undergraduearly as next summer, the future ofthe ates, noting that almost all of the Belregulation, as well as the four-year mont’s residents are Duke students. housing guarantee, may change.

FBI investigates Landlords fear students’ immaturity attack suspects � POLICIES from page 3

� INVESTIGATION from page 2 In Florida, court records in Broward County showed one of the 19 hijack suspects was wanted on an arrest warrant at the time of the attacks. A bench warrant was issued June 4 for Mohamed Atta for failing to appear in court on a charge of driving without a license. Atta’s Florida driver’s license was revoked on Aug. 23. “There’s over 200,000 warrants in the system,” county sheriff’s spokesperson Veda Coleman-Wright said. “So naturally, you’re going to make sure you’re going out and getting those wanted for murder. This is not one that’s going to jump out at you.” In Virginia, an FBI affidavit filed in federal court alleged that as many as five hijackers—Hani Hanjour, Salem Alhamzi, Majed Moqed, Ahmed Saleh Alghamdi and Abdulaziz Alomari—went to the Department of Motor Vehicles in Arlington, Va., on Aug. 2. All five were at the office that day to “conduct transactions relating to Virginia identification cards,” the affidavit said. The affidavit alleges that Villalobos and a second man—his identity not revealed because he is a confidential witness—signed identity papers for

the hijackers.

The affidavit said Villalobos, using the alias Oscar Diaz, signed papers certifying that Alomari lived in Virginia. Alomari has been identified as a hijacker of a Boston flight that crashed into the World Trade Center. The second man, a confidential witness, signed both a residency certification and an identity affidavit that was used by Alghamdi to obtain an identification card, the affidavit said. Alghamdi has been identified as a hijacker of the second plane that struck the Trade Center. The affidavit said the unidentified local man was standing in a parking lot near the motor vehicles office along with several other men, including Villalobos, when three men approached in a van and asked for help in getting Virginia identification cards. Villalobos and his acquaintances then drove together to an attorney’s office nearby with the others following. The papers, which can be used as identification for getting driver’s licenses and state identification cards, require the signature of a notary public. As for the crop dusters, Ashcroft told the House Juthe FBI had gathered information diciary raising fears the small farm planes could be used in a biological or chemical attack. “There is no clear indication of the time or place of these attacks,” he said. Ashcroft said that Atta, one of the hijackers, had shown interest in crop dusters and that another person now in federal custody had downloaded computer information about the planes. J.D. “Will” Lee, 62, general managerof South Florida Crop Care in Belle Glade, said Monday that groups of two or three Middle Eastern men came by almost every weekend for six or eight weeks before the terrorist attacks, including the weekend just before the assaults. Lee said a co-worker, James Lester, positively iden-

property business manager Judy Carroll said has helped tenant relations. ‘Without the 21-year-old age limit, we had a lot of problems with violations of being good neighbors,” she said. “Some people couldn’t understand why they couldn’t have a 10-piece band practice in their apartment, why they couldn’t dive into three feet of water, why [our electronic gate] couldn’t be a thing that you rode 0n.... Your experiences based on living those three years [between the ages of 18 and 21] make all the difference in the world based on what people know is accepted as proper conduct.” Belmont resident Dave Whitehead, a senior, saw good reason for his apartment’s policy. “If it’s all 21-year-olds, all seniors, it makes it nicer [for apartment management] when you have get-togethers and parties. If you’re underage, if you’re off campus anywhere, a party can get busted up by Durham police,” he said. “Besides, there’s the maturity

and responsibility that comes with being older.” Carroll acknowledged that some underage students may try to obtain apartments by having a parent or a friend sign the lease. “When we find out about [underage tenants], we give them a 30-day notice and ask them to leave,” she said, noting that an eviction will show up during credit checks by subsequent landlords. “Anybody who [tries to cheat] is just really not thinking.” Another difficulty that apartment-hunting students may encounter is a minimum income requirement. West Village requires tenants to earn at least $26,500 per year, three times the base annual rent. “[Living at West Village] would be hard for a student [without] a job where [she’s] earning a substantial income,” said junior Kate Gregg, who fives in Erwin Square. ‘West Village has a lot more restrictions. I think they’re trying to get an older age group.” A West Village representative declined to comment on the implications of their policies toward undergraduates.

Non-tenting game rules remain same as last year � TENTING POLICY from page 1

The walk-up line change is just one of several initiatives that allows for more moderate fans to get into the two most important home games ofthe Blue Devils’ championship-defending season. Only 30 tents will be allowed to register during the Blue, or early tenting, period—down from 50 last season. Skidmore justified the decreased by noting that for the 2001 Carolina game, tenters after the first 30 began to taper off until right before White registration. Since the Maryland game falls so shortly after the conclusion of winter

break, Blue registration will begin before the start of second semester Jan. 8. Blue registration for the Carolina game will begin as soon as 10 tents set up. White registration for the Maryland game will take place at 5 p.m. Jan. 9 and at 8 a.m. Feb. 21 for the Carolina game. Just as last season, Skidmore and other line monitors will register the 70 white tents at a site disclosed on the

Duke Student Government website. Skidmore said that, in response to complaints, DSG added servers to their site so that heavy traffic will not delay the release of the location.

The policy requires the same number of tenters for daily, nightly and personal checks, but sets a different time period Friday and Saturday nights when eight out of 12 tenters must be in the tent. This year, they must remain in the tent between 2 and 10 a.m. During the rest of the week, tent checks will occur between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. Procedures for the non-tenting games will remain the same as last year as well, with early season and weekend games classified as walk-up games and mid-week games requiring wristbands. For senior day, Skidmore

will reserve 1,000 wristbands for seniors Feb. 7, when Duke takes on Florida State University. “I think it is a very solid policy,” said DSG Vice President of Facilities and Athletics Matt Slovik. “Norm Bradley’s policy last year worked out very well and this builds upon it. I think the walk-up line policy has the potential to keep true to the ideas of a walk-up line while maintaining order.” The new policy will be reviewed at DSG’s legislative meeting Wednesday night and will be voted upon at the body’s Oct. 3 meeting.

List of 27 sanctioned organizations includes 3 charities #

freeze or block terrorists’ ability to access funds in foreign accounts. If they fail to help us by sharing information or freezing accounts, the Treasury Department now has the authority to freeze their banks’ assets and transactions in the United States.” In effect, a foreign bank that refuses to cooperate will find itself unable to operate in the United States. Among the 27 individuals and organizations named in a list attached to Bush’s orders were three charities that the government believes knowingly or unwittingly channeled money to Osama bin Laden and his alQaeda network. The charitable groups were identified as Makhtab al-Khidamat, the Wafa Humanitarian Organization and the A1 Rashid Trust. “Money is the lifeblood of terrorist operations. Today, we’re asking the world to stop payment,” Bush said, calling the move “a major thrust of our war on terrorism.” Officials said the groups named were the most prominent with identified links to al-Qaeda. But there are questions about what the president can expect with the financial crackdown. The administration’s demand that overseas banks release informa-

tion about accounts allegedly controlled by terror groups could run afoul of domestic confidentiality laws. Past attempts to crack down on the assets of terrorists and drug lords have had only limited success. In 1998, President Bill Clinton issued an executive order seeking to freeze the assets ofbin Laden and the al-Qaeda network, though it did not include many of the other organizations linked to al-Qaeda that were on Monday’s list. Moreover, the Clinton administration never openly threatened sanctions against foreign countries and financial institutions that did not join

the crackdown.

Of the 27 groups or individuals named Monday, about one-third had been previously named by the United States in connection with terrorism. The others were new. One difficulty in using such economic sanctions against terrorism is that the amounts of money used to conduct terrorist activities may be a few drops in the trillion-dollar torrent that rushes through the world financial system each day. The bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993 cost an estimated $20,000, and the FBI believes that the Sept. 11 attacks were con-

ducted for roughly $200,000 in training, airfare and living expenses. Bush declined to talk about the evidence that produced Monday’s list of al-Qaeda members and associated groups. He said the list was based on “clear evidence, much of which is classified.” The White House refused to discuss what it knew about the links between the charities, for example, and al-Qaeda. Bush deflected calls for more details, saying: “We will not jeopardize the sources. We will not make the war more difficult to win by publicly disclosing classified information.” But White House officials acknowledged Monday that they did not believe that bin Laden maintained any significant assets in the United States and that they did not have a clear idea how his activities were financed. The Clinton administration began tracing funds to bin Laden and al-Qaeda in 1998, but that effort did not locate any assets held in the United States. Bush said Monday that his order was much more sweeping. He named a number of related terrorist groups operating in places like Yemen, the Philippines, Somalia and Egypt.

Students debate impact of faith Panelists discuss U.S. response to terrorism who hasn’t thought about it in a long time, ‘Where do I stand in relationship to God or to any

I&* FORUM from page 1

One of those students, sophomore Bethany Greene, a reform Jew, never considered herself

particularly religious. “It was always somethingI had to do,” she said. “At home, I was forced to go, but usually midway through the service, I would sneak outside and gossip with Mends.” Once she got to Duke, Greene stopped attending sendees altogether. But this year, she changed her mind. “For the first time in my life I really wanted to go to services,” she said. “I didn’t want to go to forums and hear people talking directly about the attacks. By saying prayers and going to services, you don’t directly talk about it but you deal with it in away that doesn’t seem forced or fake. You can reflect. It’s peaceful.” Greene found the experience consoling, but said she doesn’t think it will make her a more active Jew, though she plans to attend Yom Rippur services later this week. “It’s a time I want to be... thinking about the same kinds of things [my family is] thinking” she said. “It’s tradition And for Greene, who, like the rest of America, doesn’t know what tomorrow’s news will bring, a little tradition and comfort in this time of great uncertainty can’t hurt. Or can it? Sophomore Flynn Crafty, a member of Campus Crusade for Christ, said faith should not be used solely as a comfort blanket. “It trivializes religion,” said Cratty. “I think religion is for informing us about the event as much as it is to comfort u5.... Just to say religion is a comfort is kind of condescending, because it makes it seem like religion is a crutch.” But Ferree-Clark said there is nothing wrong with relatively non-religious students going to a house of worship in response to recent events. “I think in moments such as these we recognize that... our security is challenged or perhaps completely blown away,” she said. “People want to [know], Where is the security in my life?’ And that may raise the question for someone

divine being?”’ While some previously non-religious students have attended services to help them deal with the crisis, a few are questioning why a God they’ve been taught is all-loving would let an event like this happen. But in comparison with other recent disasters, campus religious leaders said that they have seen virtually no students in serious faith crises. “One of the things I’ve noticed about this particular crisis as opposed to a devastating hurricane, or floods, is that when you have a crisis perpetuated by other human beings, then we are less likely to blame God for it because we can point to a face... and say, Well you did this,”’ said Jennifer Copeland, director of the Wesley Fellowship and United Methodist Campus Ministry at Duke.” Lala Qadir, co-president of the Muslim Students Association said the attacks have only strengthened her faith. “All of a sudden, I was identified as a Muslim in the public eye whether I wanted it or not,” she wrote in an e-

mail. Qadir said the attacks have made her

even more interested in understanding her

faith, “in order to be able to dispel ignorant beliefs and misconceptions regarding Islam. What I found confirmed what I had already believed: Islam literally means peace, and Muslims are instructed to enjoin goodness and forbid evil.”

Like Qadir, Imam Abdul-hafeez Waheed, religious adviser to MSA, is confident that the events of the last two weeks will only strengthen students’ spirituality. “I see people increasing their faith,” he said, “increasing their level of curiosity. People are understanding there’s no guarantee that the next second is yours.... There’s a spirit I see emanating from people.... I guarantee you we are better off spiritually and socially as a nation than before this happened.”

Franks: Duke needs more points CC teams record �

strong showings

on big-play situations.

By COLIN KENNEDY The Chronicle

By SHAWN NICHOLLS The Chronicle

After struggling on both sides of the ball in last Saturday’s 44-7 loss to Northwestern at Wallace Wade Stadium, coach Carl Franks highlighted the need for more offensive production. “We’ve got to score more points,” Franks said Monday at his weekly press conference. “We’re just not finishing off the drives that we need to finish off right now. There have been some turnovers, and there’s been some good defense played. But the encouraging thing is that we are ahead ofwhere

we were last year.”

Franks said that statistically, both rushing yardage and total offense have improved over last year for the Blue Devils (0-3, 0-1 in the ACC). “Our offensive line has been playing pretty good,” Franks said. “They are certainly playing better than they did last year. They’ve been pass protecting well and they’ve been run blocking well. “Chris Douglas is stronger than he was last year, and that’s allowed him to carry many more times. He runs pretty strong and always has the knack for falling forward, and that’s what good running backs do. We need to get the ball in his hands a little bit more. We’ve tried to throw it to him several times, but the easiest way to See

Coming off impressive victories at the Fordham Invitational two weeks ago, Duke’s men’s and women’s cross-country teams again ran well at the Great American Cross Country Festival, held in Charlotte this past weekend. In its most competitive races of this young season, the men’s team finished third behind nationally ranked Michigan and N.C. State, and the women’s squad posted a strong fifth-place finish. The clear highlight of the men’s race was the performance of senior captain Sean Kelly. Finishing fourth overall with a time of 24:12.1, the team leader ran the best race of his career and established himself as a legitimate All-America threat. Kelly stayed with some of the very best runners in the country, such as Michigan’s Alan Webb, and with 200 meters to go still had a shot at victory. “This race was a real improvement for Sean,” coach Norm Ogilvie said. “Even though he does not at this point have the finishing speed of the other top runners, he looked more under control. He had an All-American-type race, and really proved that he is ready to perform at that level.” The balance of the team showed in this race, as Kelly’s effort was followed up by strong performances from underclassmen. Freshman Nick Schneider, the U.S. high school champion in the mile, finished 19th overall, with a time of 24:58.4. “I felt I ran well,” Schneider said. “But since this was my first competitive BK, there are things I can improve upon and do differently next time.” Rounding out the men’s squad were freshmen Robert Smitson (25th, 25:12.2), sophomore Chris See CROSS COUNTRY on page 14 P-

Nirapathpongporn leads after first round of Fall Preview By ANDREW GREENFIELD The Chronicle

Life without its senior sensation Candy Hannemann started for top-ranked Duke at the NCAA Fall Preview Monday. The Blue Devils shot a team total of 301, putting them in a tie for sixth, eight shots back offirst-round leader Tennessee. Sophomore Virada Nirapathpongporn got off to a great start, firing a two-under par 36-34—70 to tie for the first-round lead with senior Young-A Yang ofTennessee. “[Nirapathpongporn] played some very solid golf today,” coach Dan Brooks said. “Every time I saw her, she was hitting fairways and greens. Virada has been playing some of the most consistent golf on the team.” The tournament is being played at the par-72,6,283 yard Washington National Golf Club in Auburn, Wash. The course challenges golfers with firm greens and fairways where players must be well-positioned in order to have a good shot at the green. “Overall, today I saw some pretty good ball-striking,” Brooks said. “The greens were very firm because ofthis course being new. We let some strokes slip away on the greens.” Nirapathpongporn, coming off a great summer

that included a win at the Women’s Trans Amateur, had two bogeys and four birdies over the course of

her round. “I felt like I played very consistent today,” the Bangkok, Thailand native said. “I hit most of my fairways, greens and putted pretty well. It took a while to get adjusted to the greens as they were very hard this morning.” Sophomore Leigh Anne Hardin fired an opening round 72, two-over par. The Martinsville, Ind. native was one-over after 17 holes, but a bogey on 18 dropped her back into a tie for 21st place. Junior Kristina Engstrom shot 39-38—77, to finish at five-over par and tied for 53rd place going into the second round. Freshman Niloufar Aazam-Zanganeh, playing in her first collegiate event, shot an eight-over-par 80 putting her in a tie for 85th place. Junior Maria Garcia-Estrada shot a disappointing 83 to start the fall season, but with two rounds left, Duke will need the junior’s contributions to win an unprecedented third Preview in a row. “I think we needed to get adjusted to the course and tomorrow should be a much better day,” Brooks said.

Week 2 finally comes to an end as Packers crush Skins By ARNIE STAPLETON The Associated Press

37 GREEN BAY, Wis, The Green Bay 0 Packers the and Washington Redskins both verified their Packets Redskins

season openers were no flukes. Brett Favre threw three touchdown passes, Ryan Longwell kicked three field goals and Ahman Green rushed 25 times for 116 yards as the Packers routed the Redskins 37-0 Monday night. The victory was Green Bay’s first shutout since beating the Raiders 28-0 on Dec. 28, 1993, and Washington’s first game without scoring since Dec. 11, 1993, when it lost 3-0 to the New York Jets. It was Washington’s first road shutout since 1971, and for the first time in franchise history, the Redskins have not scored a touchdown in their first two games. “I know they’re struggling on offense, but to be able to keep them out of the endzone was really something,” Packers coach Mike Sherman said. The game capped the NFL’s first weekend of play since it postponed all of Week 2 following the terrorist attacks on Washington, D.C. and New York on Sept. 11. After the long layoff, neither the Packers, who beat Detroit 28-6 on opening weekend, nor the Redskins, who lost to San Diego 30-3, knew if those games were true gauges or not. But the Packers dominated from the start behind Favre and Green, the NFL’s leading rusher and the first Packers’ running back ever to top 100 yards in the season’s first two games. Green also caught a team-best six passes for 30 yards. “We knew if we ran the ball right at them we’d be able to put the game out of reach,” Green said. “The offensive line opened up holes the whole second half.” And Redskins quarterback Jeff George, benched during the loss at San Diego, played even worse, handing Marty Schottenheimer his first 0-2 start in his 15-year NFL coaching career. George finished 15-of-24 for 102

Longwell kicked field goals of 28, 32 and 30 yards. Favre threw touchdown passes of 12 yards to Antonio Freeman in the first quarter, 41 yards to Billy Schroeder in the third quarter and four yards to Bubba Franks in the fourth quarter. The Redskins were outgained 217 yards to 70 in the first half but remained in striking distance at 10-0 thanks to rookie Fred Smoot’s second interception ofthe season, an endzone pickoff ofFavre with 23 seconds left in the second quarter. “We came out in the second half football,” and played physical Sherman said. “At halftime, I told the team if they really wanted to be a championship team, they were going to have to play a dominant second half. And we did.” George, who has struggled to adapt to Schottenheimer’s ball-control passing game, was sacked five times, including four straight times on thirddown plays. After going 6-of-10 for 37 yards in the first half, George was intercepted by Nate Wayne at his own 16 on the first series of the second half. Washington’s defense held and Longwell’s 32-yarder made it 13-0. Then, Schroeder, who hadn’t caught a pass all night, caught a bullet from Favre in stride as he sliced through the coverage of Champ Bailey and Sam Shade on a quick slant for a 41yard score and a 20-0 lead. Favre hit Franks in the endzone on the first play of the fourth quarter, and Longwell’s 30-yarder capped a 13-play drive that took 7:19. Several players were injured during the game, which ended what had been the longest interruption in an active NFL series—l 3 years. Washington lost linebacker LaVar (knee), cornerback Arrington Donovan Greer (knee) and defensive end Marco Coleman (elbow). The Packers lost rookie tight end David Martin (shoulder).

MICHAEL JORDAN has the whole world waiting for his return to the NBA with the Wizards,

Fax is a “no show” as world continues to wait for decision By JOSEPH WHITE The Associated Press

WASHINGTON Michael Jordan kept his mouth shut and fax machine off, and the sports world spent another day awaiting official word of his return. Jordan already has completed the paperwork to sell his share of the Washington Wizards, but his comeback announcement was delayed for at least one more day because of a licensing issue with one of his sponsors. “Michael has not finalized his decision,” said Estee Portnoy, vice president of marketing and client services for SFX, Jordan’s management agency. A statement from Jordan outlining the reasons for his comeback was being finalized, and he is expected to make his first appearance in a Wizards uniform at media day in Washington next Monday—the day before training camp begins in Wilmington, N.C. But before he can end his three-year retirement, shoot his first free throw or run his first wind sprints, Jordan and

legions of lawyers must fine-tune the fine print. Because owners can’t play, Jordan had to sell his share in Lincoln Holdings, which owns a portion of the Wizards, the NHL’s Washington Capitals and the MCI Center. Jordan’s stake, about 10 percent, goes

to Lincoln Holdings majority owner Ted Leonsis. “My understanding is that the ownership documents are finished,” NBA deputy commissioner Russ Granik said. “It justrequires Michael’s decision as to whether he’s going to play.” Jordan not only must sell his shares in the team, but also he will have to relinquish his job as Wizards president of basketball operations. Those responsibilities will probably be turned over to general manager Wes Unseld and assistant general manager Rod Higgins. Unseld and Higgins would be free to consult with Jordan, but NBA tampering rules would prohibit Jordan from talking with officials from other teams. The question of “whether” Jordan will return has essentially been replaced by “when,” and this latest dispute over licensing—if it drags on—could conceivably delay the announcement for several days. Many Wizards fans no longer doubt that the five-time league MVP will be in uniform: Season-ticket sales have surpassed the 12,000 mark, up more than 2,000 from the end of last season, and are approaching a franchise record. Jordan had planned to announce he was 100 percent back last week, but the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks prompted him to shelve plans for a news conference and delayed his final OK.

give it to him is to hand it to him.” As for Duke’s defense, several long third down conversions for Northwestern led to eventual points, something Franks hopes to avoid in the future. “We’ve got to do a better job on third down,” Franks said. “Those kinds of things are going to happen occasionally, but they shouldn’t happen as much as they did Saturday night.” In addition to extending the longest current losing streak in Division I-A, Saturday’s loss also left the Blue Devils bruised, with wide receiver Reggie Love questionable against Virginia with a hamstring injury. “He’s a big target and a guy that’s been making some big plays for us,” Franks said.

Also, left tackle Drew Strojny, who

separated his shoulder on the first series of the game, is doubtful to play in Charlottesville and could possibly be sidelined for two to four weeks. “Anytime you lose a starter, you have to say that it’s a significant loss,” Franks said of Strojny’s injury. “But Christian Mitchell went into the [Northwestern] game against one of their better defensive linemen and did

pretty well.

“So we feel confident with him going in there. It’s going to give Christian a chance to step in and play, and I think he’ll do pretty well.” Even with the disappointment of losing, Franks remains optimistic, and tried to pass that feeling along to the team when he talked about the loss to the Wildcats. “I went down a long list of things

we’ve improved on, by position, to let them see how we’ve gotten better,” Franks said. “And they know we’ve gotten better, but I wanted to get down to some of the specifics with them. When things are going not so good, sometimes you need to offer encouragement. And when things are going really well, you need to be a little bit tougher. Right now, our guys need to hear some things they are doing good.” While strong safety B. J. Hill said it is impossible to not think about the team’s long losing streak, it is important to stay focused and keep practicing in preparation for upcoming games. “We know we’re a good team,” Hill said. “I feel we have a chance to compete and play and win the rest ofour games.” After facing two top-20 teams in the first three games of the season, the Blue Devils travel to Charlottesville Saturday to play a Virginia team (2-1,10) that is coming off a last second victory over Clemson. Franks said that Virginia has improved offensively, and mentioned receiver Billy McMullen as a key threat. McMullen caught eight passes for 189 yards last year against the Blue Devils, and already has 20 catches and five touchdowns in Virginia’s first three games. Playing at Virginia two years ago, Franks won his first game as Duke’s coach when the Blue Devils posted lastsecond heroics before winning in overtime, something that the team and especially Franks, still remember. “I think you’re always going to remember your first win as a head coach,” Franks said.

Freshmen finish 10th, 11th, respectively � CROSS COUNTRY from page 11

Williams (27th, 25:13.8), and freshman Michael Hatch (34th, 25:23.1). With a young nucleus and strong leadership from Kelly, Ogilvie feels that after next week’s extremely competitive Griak Invitational, Duke should be able to move into the top 25 in the country. Youth was also the theme for Duke’s women’s crosscountry team. With its best runner, junior Sheela Agrawal, out with a foot injury, and its team afflicted by the tragedy of Sept. 11, four freshmen and a sophomore stepped up to carry Duke against a field that included six nationally-ranked teams. The freshman duo of Paris Edwards (17:29.2) and Paige Miller (17:29.5) finished the 5K race 10th and 11th, respectively, as the top two American freshmen. Running together throughout the race, the pair found familiarity and confidence in each other, amid the pressure of their most competitive collegiate race ever. “It was great to work with my teammates in the race,” Edwards said. “That will help us do well later on, and get us to Nationals.” Meanwhile, Miller emphasized that the Blue Devils’ season is just beginning. “This race was to see where we were this early in the season, so we know what we have to do to get where we want to be later on,” she said. Coach Jan Samuelson-Ogilvie also stressed that the season is only just now getting going. “Until next week, meets do not even count toward NCAA qualifying, and so many schools do not run all

of their people,” Samuelson-Ogilvie said. “Still, this

Following Edwards and Miller, freshman Meaghan Leon (31st, 18:03.6), sophomore Allison Hofmann (38th, 18:11.5) and freshman Phebe Ko (53rd, 18:26.6) completed the team’s strong finish.

Bonds nails No. 67 in Giants’ 2-1 win By BETH HARRIS

The Associated Press

Barry Bonds’ 67th home run did more than put Dodgers 1 him within three of Mark McGwire’s major league record. His solo shot won the game. Livan Hernandez pitched seven innings of threehit ball and the San Francisco Giants defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 2-1 Monday night in the opener of the three-game series. “That’s what we play for—wins,” Bonds said. “It’ll be fun if we win the next twT o.” McGwire set the single-season record of 70 ago. Bonds was l-for-3 with two homers three walks, one intentional and the homer off James Baldwin (2-5) in the seventh inning. “Barry will probably win the MYP this year, especially with the amount of homers he’s hit that meant something,” Giants manager Dusty Baker said. “That bears a lot of weight with me. It’s not only numbers, but when you hit them.” Baldwin intentionally walked Bonds in the fifth before pitching to him in the seventh. Baldwin’s first pitch was a slider, followed by two fastballs. Bonds connected on a 91-mph fastball. “I made a mistake and he made me pay for it,” Baldwin said. “That’s why he’s got 67 home runs. But we’ve just got to keep attacking him.” The homer came in the Giants’ 151st game. McGwire hit his 67th in St. Louis’ 162nd game. The Cardinals played 163 games that season because one game was suspended by rain. The Giants moved within 1 1/2 games of idle Arizona in the NL West and two behind St. Louis in the wild card race. The Dodgers are 4 1/2 back in the division and five behind in the wild card. “We didn’t come out with as much intensity as I thought we would, especially in a game like this,” Dodgers catcher Paul Lo Duca said. “It’s a big rivalry and we didn’t want to lose. We’re still in this thing, and that’s going to make it even tougher now, to lose a game like this.” Bonds, who had never faced Baldwin before, lined a 1-1 pitch from the right-hander into the lower box seats in the right field corner with two outs in the seventh, giving San Francisco a 2-0 lead. It was his major league-leading 100th extra-base hit. “I don’t really make too many adjustments up there. I know where I want to be in my hitting position,” Bonds said. “It’s hard enough to make contact as it is, let alone try to think too much and make too many changes.” Bonds broke a tie with Sammy Sosa for the second most homers ever in a season. Sosa hit 66 in 1998. Hernandez (13-14) walked four and struck out four to beat the Dodgers for the first time in four starts this season. Robb Nen pitched the ninth to earn his 41st save in 48 opportunities. The Giants scored their first run on third-inning doubles by Rich Aurilia and Jeff Kent. Hernandez gave up three consecutive two-out walks in the second before Baldwin grounded out to third to end the inning. The Dodgers loaded the bases again in the eighth against Felix Rodriguez, but Beltre filed out to left, making him 0-for-8 lifetime against Rodriguez. Shawn Green, Gary Sheffield, Lo Duca and Eric Karros —the heart of the Dodgers’ lineup—combined to go 0-for-12 with four walks and two strikeouts. Baldwin gave up two runs and 10 hits in seven innings to lose his fourth consecutive decision. He walked four and struck out four, including J.T. Snow to escape a bases-loaded jam in the first. Notes: Bonds only needs to homer in Houston’s Enron Field, where the Giants play Oct. 2-4, to have homered in all current NL parks in his career... Bonds’ homer was his 100 th career RBI against Los Angeles and his first homer in 29 at-bats this season Giants

at Dodger Stadium.... Bonds’ 561st homer puts him within two of Reggie Jackson for seventh place in major league history.... Bonds needs one RBI to equal his career best of 129 set in 1996.

The Chronicle Up for review

This

year, the Annual Review Committee underwent a change in leadership: After several years of sendee, Associate Dean for Student Development Ben Ward stepped down, and Assistant Dean for Student Development Todd Adams took over as the committee’s chair. The switch presents a golden opportunity for the group to improve its reputation and develop a clear mission. The University claims the annual review process is designed to ensure that fraternities and selective living groups merit the prime housing they enjoy on West Campus. It requires that groups fulfill seven criteria, ranging from faculty interaction to educational programming. Despite these standards, Duke has failed to enforce consistently the one criterion that really matters: citizenship. Although Judicial Affairs does place sanctions on groups that have violated official policies, the ARC, too, must be responsible for punishing groups that have been bad neighbors. The University must require that each group keeps its house clean, respects the property of others and demonstrates basic respect for those living nearby. Fortunately, the ARC has proven that there are teeth to its policy by revoking the housing of Old House CC and Phi Kappa Psi fraternity. Now, the committee would do well to prioritize the citizenship standard and reconsider the other six criteria. Furthermore, the ARC’s work has been plagued by complaints, even from leaders ofhouses that passed the review without incident. Students have said the review is more about how they present themselves rather than what they have actually done, and ARC members have admitted in the past that the committee rarely verifies the facts presented in a group’s report. Students have said the confusion results in large part from unclear criteria, but administrators have said they want to leave room for individual groups to interpret them. Despite this disagreement, what is clear is that the University must set more defined requirements, perhaps even using specific examples, so that groups who fail the review have no room to argue. Fortunately, student feedback about Adams has been positive thus far. Responsible for advising fraternities, Adams has already developed a good relationship with group leaders. Many have said they appreciated the meetings they have had with him, stressing that they now have a better understanding of the ARC’s expectations. Hopefully, students and Adams will continue to have a positive working relationship, and the process will ensure that groups are maintaining a good standing within the community.

Letters to the editor

Patriotism, pacifism do not exclude each other My desire for peace stems not from a “liberal education gone awry” but from a respect for the lives of innocent human beings—those who perished Sept. 11, as ■well as those who, it seems likely, will perish in the weeks to come. So I do pray for peace, and I do it secure in the

Alexandra Regarding Wolfe’s column in the Sept. 19 issue of The Chronicle, no, I do not think that “we only got what we deserved." I am not scared by any displays of unity or patriotism; rather, I am touched. I don’t think that the most horrible part of the tragic events of Sept. 11 is “racial profiling.” And I certainly am not so callous as to resent hearing about the losses that others, including Wolfe, have suffered. I do, however, find disturbing the implication that pacifism has as little value as any unpatriotic or insensitive sentiment, or that it is part of “a wave of fashionable

knowledge that I can hope for peace while revering the flag, loving my country, mourning the disaster in my city and desiring the terrorists responsible for the events of Sept. 11 be brought to justice. I also pray for an end to the ignorant anti-Arab senti-

self-loathing.”

ments that seem to have sur-

Wolfe describes will extend further than the lines of homes and storefronts with flags waving, to a true unity ofall Americans in our desire to live for our country. Aruni Jayatilleke Medicine ’O5

Attacks on political correctness provide no answers John Zimmerman’s Sept. 20 column, “No time for political correctness” suggests that the moral laxity of the

PC movement created a conducive environment for last week’s horrific events. I think he should recalibrate his logic. Zimmerman’s strenuous attack on PC is remarkable not for being incorrect, but for being a barrage directed at a pallid, long-discredited target. Our line in the sand should be to defend small-“L”

correctness, but today’s fight is far more complex than Zimmerman makes it out to

be. Of course a flag-ban at Lehigh University is wrongheaded, but to object to the outpouring of feeling at last week’s interfaith vigil is obtuse and equally “sanctimonious” and “self-righteous” as the political correctness police Zimmerman likes to ridicule. I think most people will agree that the response in this country and especially in New York City and Washington, D.C., has been admirable, and far more often than not, heroic. Organizations such as alQaeda, Maktab al-Khidamat or the Taliban desire a harsh,

monolithic world of unquestioning obeisance bent on destroying secularism. In turn, we must do our utmost to preserve democratic ideals and religious freedom, as messy, disorderly or touchyfeely as they seem. Zimmerman criticizes the PC movement for not keeping their eye on the ball and embracing gestures of sympathy rather than “focus [ing] on justice.”I submit he do the same and redirect his overheated rhetoric toward the task at hand, fighting intolerance abroad, at home, and

liberal ideals of pluralism, civil debate and democratic government against radical in our hearts. fundamentalism of all sorts. As a lifetime Republican, I Erich Huang have no affection for political Medicine ’O2 for referenced column, see http:! www.chronicle.duke.edu/story.php?article_id=23so6 /

Patriotism helps United States mourn, defend itself The recent tragedy at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon is a declaration of war that makes each and every American a target. Now, I’m sorry if waving the flag ofthe greatest country in the history of the world, the one in which I live, the United States of America, “frightens” Kathryn Duke, as she wrote in her Sept. 19 letter to the editor, but it is the right of every American to do so. It is our right because we live in a free country. We live in a country which provides freedom for acts which I find for referenced letter, see

as disgusting as her suggest-

ed flag burning. I find it sadly smug, immature and weak that Duke and others like her still must seek refuge in political correctness and moral relativism at a time like this, How uniting as a country and waving our flag in remembrance of those who have died for the freedom that all of us, including her, enjoy—if sometimes don’t “moral deserve—purveys superiority” is unclear to me. I ask those who question our country in this dire moment

whether they would, perhaps, like a permanent vacation to, say, Afghanistan. I’m sure Duke, a liberalminded woman, would enjoy her stay there. If this doesn’t sound like fun, then it may be time to open a history book and see that our freedom was not won by whining about American nationalism, but rather taking the measures necessary to defend ourselves and having the moral fortitude to do so.

University president examines the need for a military response to terrorism

Last week, I met with students and faculty who had circulated a statement of concern about the tone of public discourse following the even so ep . ey jjjy . received many signa• | tures in support and encouraged others to ilSite-, otters explaining why they agreed with Nan the views expressed in j(eoh ane the statement. 1 hey asked me, as president of the university, to speak against the militaristic tone of what they see as the dominant national rhetoric. Iwas impressed by the thoughtfulness of the statement and the many supporting letters, which I have read carefully but I found myself unable to sign the statement. Let me explain. There are two different issues here, One is the specific position taken by the petitioners against the use of military force. The other is the call for open discourse, as befits a democratic nation. I agree strongly with the second view; I cannot agree with the first, but by providing my reasons for holding this opinion, I hope to encourage others to express their own perspectives. The most prominent theme in the let— ters was that “violence begets violence.” Therefore, it was argued, our nation should refrain from responding with force to these violent attacks. It is surely true that the use ofviolence in some contexts can engender a horrific cycle of increasing violence; calls for revenge motivated only by the desire to get back at those who hurt you, blindly, without thinking about consequences, are very likely to be met with counter-revenge. However, in my view, the people who orchestrated the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon are not in the least likely to respect or respond to non-violence. I would argue that we are currently in a situation where vio-

lence indeed begets violence, but in a dif- aims and consultations, consistent ferent way: If the violence of Sept. 11 with international law. goes unchecked, it begets yet more vioWe should also ensure that our dislence from those who originally launched cussions are broad, respectful and attenemboldened in a murderous cycle of tive, and protect the freedom and opentheir own making.

The force we use must not be disproportionate to the damage inflicted on us, and strong efforts must be made to avoid inflicting harm on innocent people. This is not just an American tragedy, nor should there be just an American response. Many people and their governments see this moment as a new awakening to the somber dimen-

Hundreds of citizens of other nations were killed in the World Trade Center, and in almost every country there was revulsion and pity in response to this assault on our common humanity. We must act with allies and with international organizations, not just as an embattled superpower; we must continue to move with clear diplomatic

A generation’s mark It’s been two weeks, And by looking around, it’s difficult to see that we already live in a different world. On the surface, at least, nothing has changed. There are still homework and assignments, papers and projects, hookups and relationships, parties and social events To overuse a cliche, life has begun to return to normal. The patriotism that is now all around us will undoubtedly fade away in the coming Marko months. The flags will slowly disap- r): uranov c r pear from the dorm room windows, the —i rains of autumn will wash the chalk on the Bryan Center walkway, and blood banks will once again be depleted from a lack of donors. At football games, the guys who casually stroll into their seats with a beer and a hot dog during the singing of the national anthem will soon return to their disrespectful ways. Professors will return to teaching from their syllabi and reference the terrorist attacks with less regularity. Even the basketball season will come again, two teams will play in the Super Bowl and another batch of excited high school seniors will get a letter that starts with “Congratulations.” Yet despite an eventual return to everyday life, one thing will be different. As a generation, we’ve been marked. In their song “Civil War,” the rock band Guns N’ Roses sang “So I never fell for Vietnam/ We got the wall ofD.C. to remind us all/ That you can’t trust freedom when it’s not in your hands/ When everybody’s fightin’ for their promised land.” These lyrics always sounded strange to me. Even though I knew what the song was about and I knew :

After all, the Vietnam War is a historwitnessed an unseen and unknown enemy deliver ical event to me—l only know of it through books, slashing blows to our national landmarks has burst movies and stories. our bubble of security.

Tomorrow, September 26, all three levels of the Bryan Center will be filled with representatives from companies and organizations from across the U.S. Each and every one of them is here because of you. So make the most of it!

What is the Career Fair anyway, and why should I go? The main purpose of tomorrow’s fair can be summed up in one word: recruitment. In today’s tight labor market, employers need well-educated, bright, and enthusiastic employees. Duke students are highly sought after as full-time employees and summer interns in a wide array of industries. By attending the fair you will be taking an important step (and quite possibly, a highly successful one) toward finding a great job or internship. By visiting the employer tables, talking with recruiters, and picking up company literature you will glean critical information that will help you make decisions about your professional future, Okay, so you’ve convinced me to go. What should I bring? Is there anything I need to do to prepare? Read this special Career Fair Guide and take note of any particular firms or organizations that sound appealing. Many of these companies will have brief descriptions in the pages that follow, which should help you decide whether you want to check them out tomorrow. If you need more information on a company, take a look at their web site or else give us a call at the Career Center. You might want to make a list of your "target" employers and use the Bryan Center maps enclosed in this supplement to make a career fair itinerary. Please note that last minute changes in the location of employer tables are inevitable. If you cannot

find an employer tomorrow, please ask one of the Career Center staff who will be in the Bryan Center for the duration of the fair. Be sure to bring plenty ofclean copies ofyour resume with you tomorrow; you will want to leave them with recruiters. Make sure that everything on your resume is up-to-date and that it is proofed (ask a friend to look it over sometimes only fresh eyes can spot a typo). -

Finally, if you are not already a registered MonsterTrak user, be. sure to create your profile as soon as possible (call the Career Center if you need assistance). Since many of the career fair employers will be using MonsterTrak to manage their campus interview schedule, it behooves you to be in the system so that is easy for them to preselect you for interviews. What will I find in this Career Fair Guide? Along with maps of the Bryan Center and lists of all the employers who will be here tomorrow, you will also find advice on how to make the most of your Career Fair experience, what to wear, how to approach recruiters, and important steps you should take to follow up on your fair activities. We hope that you have a great time at the Career Fair! Remember, the Career Center welcomes your feedback, so feel free to drop us a line afterwards with any comments. Staff will be available all day tomorrow in the Bryan Center, so look for us if you have any questions or

problems. Good luck!

HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF CAREER FAIRS Advice from a recruiter who has a lot of experience on the other side of the career fair booth

For more information on the job search, go to JobWeb at www.jobweb.com. be a great place for you to meet potential you need to do more than print 30 copies practice your handshake, and press your ;o succeed. Here are tips to help you get er fairs.

professional and focus the flattery on the company. For example, you can say, "I heard that XYZ is pursuing a business strategy that includes merging business units to create more synergy. I think that is a really strategic move."

Before printing multiple copies of your resume, have other proofread it for typos. Recruiters hate those! We’ll question your work ethic if you hand in a poorly written resume filled with mistakes. Also, don’t use “creative” fonts or cram all your awards and association memberships in by using a type size that is too small for the naked eye. Remember, substance is the key. Your job is to get through our first round of screening. For that, you need a solid, well-written resume.

Don’t ask the recruiter personal questions. Such questions sound frivolous. Don’t skirt the GPA issue. If you are asked, tell the recruiter your cumulative and/or semester GPA. If you aren’t sure, give an estimate. If your GPA is not stellar it may not matter, but we need to know what we’re working with. Nothing is worse than listening to your

reasoning about how your GPA would be higher except for the wind change in the month of December. •

When you give a recruiter your resume, ask what the next step in the process is. Recruiters worth their salt will be able to tell you.

Career fairs are wonderful places for students and employers to make initial contact if you invest the time to prepare properly. Use these tips to help you get the most out of career fairs. See you at the fair! Pamela S. Joell is a Manager of University Relations for Siemens Corporation in Pennsylvania.

Stay away from creative, euphemistic phrases. A resume I received for a sales position stated that the person’s *job (with a fast-food chain) was to “upsell” customers. I keep thinking to this day, “do you wanna supersize it?”

Take time before the career fair to find out which companies will be represented. At a minimum, read the career fair handout in advance. Learn something about their companies before you approach recruiters. Nothing ticks me off more than a student who approaches my table and says, “So, tell me about your company...” I don’t mind discussing my company or its job opportunities, but I do mind doing all the work. Worse, lil think your lazy if you haven’t taken the time to research the company. Have a game plan and focus on no more than three companies that interest you. Again, do a little advance research so you can make an intelligent comment about the company you are approaching. Try something like, “I understand that company XYZ may open branch in ABC. Do you think that will expand its overall product mix?” When you engage a recruiter in intelligent dialogue, you stand out. You have limited time at the career fair, so use it wisely. Gather giveaways and competitive literature first, enter the sweepstakes, then focus on the companies you’ve chosen.

Prepare a two- or three-line script for yourself. This part is tricky. Try to impress recruiters the first few minutes of conversation. The problem is that others will be trying to do the same. If you talk too long, you’ll create a bottleneck in the flow of traffic. If you see students behind you waiting to speak to the recruiter, move on. This is not an interview. You can impress employers at other times. Maintain good eye contact, and offer a firm handshake and a few introductory sentences. That’s the formula that works. Tell the recruiter your name, your class year, and whether you’re interested in a full-time, co-op, or internship position. Follow with your career interest, your major(s), and why you came to the company’s table. It’s okay to flatter the recruiter, but be

SECRETS TO INTERVIEWING SUCCESS Interview Questions and Tips

Reprinted from Job Choices 2002, with permission of the National Association of Colleges and Employers, copyright holder. For more information on the job search, go to JobWeb at www.jobweb.com.

Interview Questions Following are some typical behavior-based questions that interviewers often ask. The job competencies they're designed to measure are in parentheses:

1. Describe a situation in which you had to use reference materials to write a research paper. What was the topic? What journals did you read? (research) 2. Give me a specific example of a time when a co-worker or classmate criticized your work in front of others. How did you respond? How has that event shaped the way you communicate with others? (communication)

clothing is pressed, your shoes are shinned, and your hair and nails are well groomed. Bring extra copies ofyour resume and a list of references. And, conduct yourself professionally throughout the interview.

7. Be assertive: Remember that the interview is away for you to learn if the job is right for you. Also* speak slowly and clearly and don't be afraid to pause for a moment to collect your thoughts.

8. Follow up: Ask the interviewer for a business card and send a thank-you note or e-mail as soon as possible.

6. Be honest: Don't try to cover up mistakes. Instead, focus on how you learned from them.

3. Describe a situation in which you recognized a potential problem as an opportunity. What did you do? (initiative)

5. Describe the system you use for keeping track of multiple projects. How do you track your progress so that you can meet deadlines? (commitment to task) 6. Tell me about a time when you came up with an innovative solution to a challenge your company or class was facing. What was the challenge? What roles did others play? (creativity and imagination)

7. What, in your opinion, are the key ingredients in building and maintaining successful business relationships? Give me examples of how you've made these work for you. (relationship building) 8. Describe a time when you got co-workers or class-

mates who dislike each other to work together. How did you accomplish this? What was the outcome? (teamwork)

Are you ready for our Corporate Fast Track?

9. Tell me about a time when you failed to meet a deadline. What things did you fail to do? What were the repercussions? What did you learn? (time management) 10. Describe a specific problem you solved for your employer or professor. How did you approach the problem? What role did others play? What was the outcome? (decision making)

Interviewing Tips 1. Do your research: Researching the organization before you interview is critical. Employers are interested in candidates who ask intelligent questions and are able to make intelligent conversation based on what they know about the organization. They are equally unimpressed by candidates who know nothing about the company or position being offered. Leant as much as you can beforehand know the company's products and services, profit margin, management, culture dress code, and anything else you can think of. Good sources are your career services center, a college or public library, and the Internet.

2. Practice: Do practice interviews with a career counselor, friends, and family members or by yourself, in front of a mirror. Employers prize communication skills in job candidates, and the interview is your opportunity to showcase your verbal skills, so practice time is time well spent. Many career services centers offer workshops, mock interviews, or one-on-one coaching. Some even make videotapes of mock interviews. -

3. Be prepared: Think about how your experience in work, classes, and activities can relate to the job you're seeking.

4. Show up on time: Allow plenty of time to get to the interview; and, if possible, visit the site in advance and time how long it takes to get there. 5. Act like a professional: Dress professionally plan your interview attire in advance and make sure your -

CAREER FAIR GUIDE

HOW TO WRITE EFFECTIVE COVER LETTERS Avoid excessive verbiage. Novices to business writing may be inclined to pepper their letters with multi-syllabic words and lengthy sente: to impress the reader. She is more likef become lost in a sea of wordiness, and will go on to the next applicant. Your reader is a busy person don’t waste her time!

A solid and well-written cover letter may make all the difference when it comes to getting an interview. So, it is worth your time and effort to think carefully about this important component of your application. The following guidelines should help you get started. Remember that the counseling staff at the Career Center is happy to critique cover letters, either during an advising appointment or during daily drop-in hours (Monday Friday, 2:00 to 3:00 p.m.).

Everything about your letter should

convey that you are a positive and goal-oriented person. Optimism and an active voice should pervade your tone, diction, goals, and expectations (e.g., “I look forward to meeting with yo soon” is more appealing than “I hope that you can find the time to consider me for an interview.”)

•

A business letter should flow smoothly and elegantly, so be aware of sentence and paragraph Avoid choppy abrupt sentences wkward transitions, itimately, as with any piece of riting, the goal is to keep your idience interested enough to keep eading. To this end, present very .pecific ideas and examples rather than abstract thoughts and ambiguous allusions to yourself and what have done. Know your audience, do you think would pique this perin you and what you have to offer her company?

For many first-time job seekers no other aspect of their job hunt causes as much confusion as written correspondence. Cover letters can be especially tough, because you must strike a balance between expressing your personal qualities and maintaining a professional tone. While there is always certain critical information that must be included in a resume, no similar set of hard and fast rules exists for the application letter that accompanies it.

continued on page 14

Know why you are writing the letter Cover letters have one sole purpose: to get the reader to take a look at your resume and convince him or her that you should be invited for an interview. To this end, a good cover letter will be concise and focused on your goal, which is to be considered for a specific position at a specific organization. The kiss of death for any cover letter is a generic sameness that fails to communicate to the reader why you are keenly interested in the position or the company. Unless you can effectively link your experiences and skills to the company’s requirements for a candidate, your cover letter will probably not get you very far.

Keep your letter on track by following a logical structure William Banis, Career Services Director at Northwestern University, suggests that your letter consist of three or four paragraphs. The first paragraph should be brief, and get to the point quickly. Here you should explain why you are writing the letter, identify the position that interests you, and inform the reader where you heard about it. You should end the paragraph with a confident statement about your suitability for the position. The reader will then be primed to go on to the next paragraph to read why! The second and third paragraphs are the most substantive of the letter. It is here where you convince the reader that you are not only qualified for the position, but that you are also the kind of person who can make positive contributions to the organization, and fit in with the company’s culture and philosophy. In order to do this, you could: a) discuss a past accomplishment that shows off your professional skills (e.g., leadership, analytical ability and problem-solving, teamwork, etc.); b) show that you are familiar with the company’s activities, values, and future plans; and c) link your experiences with aspects of the company’s profile and components of the position. Always direct the reader to your resume rather than rehashing it in the letter. The final paragraph should be proactive. Avoid sounding desperate for an interview, and instead write as if you expect to secure one immediately. Let the reader know that you will be following up with a phone call, and specify when she can expect to hear from you. You should also supply your phone number and email address. Always close by thanking the reader for her time and consideration of your application.

Use an appropriate writing style Crafting a business letter is not a skill we automatically pick up. Finding the right voice and tone to communicate with a stranger can be tough. Northwestern’s William Banis offers the following suggestions: •

While you want your letter to be personalized, friendly and professional, be careful that you don’t cross the line and come off sounding presumptuous, too familiar, or obsequious

HOW TO WRITE EFFECTIVE COVER LETTERS from continued

page 13

Content is criticalbut don't forget about presentation! We’ve all heard the old expression, ‘You never have a second chance to make a first impression.’ Chances are your cover letter is the first contact a potential employer will have with you. Don’t blow it by not adhering to the basic rules of good letter writing.

Go beyond traditional consulting... Be part of a nationally recognized healthcare consulting firm offering dramatic financial results to the healthcare industry. Assume a critical, highly visible role in restructuring the delivery and management of healthcare.

Work with a dynamic team committed to helping our clients prosper in the continually changing healthcare environment.

If you cannot take the time to find out the name and title of the person who will be reading your letter then why should she extend you the courtesy ofreading it? Think about it. Any letter addressed to “Dear Sir/Madam” or to “Whom it may concern” is probably headed for the circular filing cabinet. Along similar lines, make sure that your letter is pleasant to read. If it is to be mailed, use clean high-quality stationery. All letters should be proofed, proofed and proofed again! Do not use tiny, flowery fonts, and miniscule margins. If you spend more time trying to figure out how to fit the letter on one page than on the letter itself, you need to start over. If you are not sure about the correct format for business letters, please consult a career counselor or take a look at the writing guides available in the Career Resource Room (216 Page Building)

Partners

Yes, you’re convincing the reader to consider YOU for an interview, and eventually a job. But don’t turn yourself into an egomaniac. Your cover letter is written to show the reader that you understand the needs of the company, first and foremost. Therefore, any cover letter should be themed around the ways in which you can meet those needs.
