A&S budget to remain concern � Unexpected revenue from various sources kept the budget balanced last year, but administrators are considering admitting more undergraduates over the next three or four years. By WHITNEY BECKETT The Chronicle

NEAL PATEL/THE CHRONICLE

PAST GRADUATE AND PROFESSIONAL STUDENT CAMPOUTS have drawn thousands of students, but this year’s event will feature a greater emphasis on community service and the success of the women’s basketball program.

GPSC campout promotes service By KIRA ROSOFF The Chronicle

The graduate and professional student men’s basketball ticket campout will have a few new twists this year, including a push for char-

ity and more promotion for women’s

basketball, with past game highlights and appearances by players. Over 4,000 graduate and professional students registered last week for the campout, which will take place during the Sept. 27 weekend in the grass fields behind the Blue Zone parking lot. The Graduate and Professional Student Council—which promotes the event not just as a means of

getting into Cameron Indoor Stadium, but also as a major bonding and social event for various postundergraduate communities will emphasize community service during this years campout. The Men’s Basketball Ticket Committee is requiring that students

A reduction in faculty searches and higher-thananticipated summer school revenue helped Arts and Sciences avert a $1 million deficit last year, but administrators warn that the school will face larger deficits, even as several ambitious projects proceed. Despite last year’s balanced budget, Arts and Sciences officials remain wary that economic concerns and anticipated facility expenditures will require deficit spending for the foreseeable future, which has prompted them to consider increasing the size of the undergraduate body. Last year, William Chafe, dean of the faculty of arts and sciences, cut the number of faculty searches from 42 to 32. Those cuts essentially leveled off faculty growth, unlike the past five years in which Arts and Sciences faculty grew. The cuts were made across departments, on the basis of each position’s priority. “There’s always difficult choices with respect to faculty,” said Thomas Mann, associate dean for finance and administration. “But faculty hires are the thing that is most flexible to us.” Arts and Sciences, with a total budget of $200,000, is a wide-reaching unit that includes Trinity College and many departments in the Graduate School. Each year, departments submit appointment requests to offset retirements or simply to add experts in certain areas. Precision in planning is difficult, said Executive

Vice Provost Jim Roberts, because faculty searches sometimes do not yield offers and some candidates do

ADF co-director succumbs to cancer By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle

Stephanie Reinhart, the celebrated co-director of the Durham-based American Dance Festival and a pillar ofAmerican modem dance, died early Monday morning after a long battle with leukemia. Friends of Reinhart remembered her as a committed, energetic leader of the annual festival, which she co-directed since 1993 with her husband, Charles. Together, they brought new successes to the six-week modern dance event—now one of the premiere dance festivals in the nation—and helped established Duke and Durham as centers of dance every summer. “Everything she did is irreplaceable. She’s had an enormous impact on the dance world,” said Erin Rehberg, ADF communications director. “The dance world is so small that when a prominent figure like that leaves us, everyone feels it.” The Reinharts have also served as the co-artistic directors for dance at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., and Stephanie served as a long-time administrator at the National Endowment for the Arts.

German chancellor tries to win support By STEVEN ERLANGER

New York Times News Service

BERLIN Chancellor Gerhard Schroder, who narrowly won re-election by opposing an American war in Iraq, tried on Monday to patch up relations with Washington, but in a frosty response, President Geroge W. Bush broke with protocol and refrained from making the customary congratulatory telephone call to the German leader. In Warsaw, Poland, for a meeting ofNATO defense ministers, Secretary ofDefense Donald Rumsfeld announced that he would not meet his German counterpart, Peter Struck. Rumsfeld was blunt about the Schroder campaign. “The way it was conducted was notably unhelpful and as the White House has indicated, had the effect of poisoning a relationship,” he said, referring to criticism from the national security adviser, Condoleezza Rice, ofthe Ger-

man justice minister, who reportedly compared Bush’s tactics to those ofHitler. Aware of how angry the Bush administration is, Schroder announced on Monday that the justice minister, Herta Daeubler-Gmelin, would not be joining the new government. But this gesture appeared unlikely to have any immediate impact. A senior administration official told reporters aboard Air Force One on Monday morning, as Bush headed to a fund-raising event in New Jersey, that Schroder and his government “have a lot ofwork to do to repair the damage that he did by his excesses during the

campaign.” In an interview on Monday, the German foreign minisSee CHANCELLOR on page 9

Experts disagree on state of U.S.-German relations Anti-American campaigning helped Schroder win reelection but may have ‘poisoned’ foreign policy By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

Gerhard Schroder’s come-from-behind win Sunday to remain Germany’s chancellor ended one of the most interesting European elections in recent years, said political, policy and European experts at Duke, although they disagreed on the impact Schroder’s reelection will have on German-American relations. “They obviously have changed in the short run, there’s no question about it,” said Herbert Kitschelt, professor of political science. “It’s not going to be easy to repair the damage. There’s some sense that Schroder might use the Iraq issue to attract voters. His posturing on the issue went past what one might expect goes on in the electoral campaign.” Schroder, who trailed conservative challenger Edmund Stoiber throughout the summer, climbed back into contention for two reasons—a prompt response to flooding that included aid, and his outspoken opposition to a US. attack on Iraq. Although many European leaders have expressed hesitation with the United States’ Iraqi war plan, few have outrightly denounced it, as Schroder did in the election. Ingeborg Walther, chair of the Department of Germanic Language and Literature, said that U.S.-German relations have long been strong, however, and will continue to remain as such. “I’m really distressed about how this is being portrayed by the American media, that Germans on the whole are becoming more anti-American,” she said. “That is not the case whatsoever. They’re very distressed at the current administration and [President George W. Bush’s] move toward unilateralism. To single out Germany is unfair, because this is a general European reaction.” Stoiber, prime minister of Bavaria, chastized Schroder’s position on US. foreign policy, but opinion polls clearly

showed that the German people were closer to Schroder on the issue. Preliminary results showed that Schroder’s Social Democrat-Green coalition would hold 306 seats in the new Bundestag, an 11-seat advantage over the Christian Democrat-Free Democrat alliance’s 295. In the last weeks of the election, Schroder voiced strong opposition to any German participation in a U.S.-led action against Iraq. His Justice Minister Herta Daeubler-Gmelin is also alleged to have compared Bush’s political tactics with those of Adolf Hitler. Bush’s spokesman has denounced the comments and Condoleezza Rice, national security advisor, said the Schroder campaign has “poisoned” relations between the two. Kitschelt said he expected Schroder to make amends with the United States. Schroder announced, for example, the sacking of Daeubler-Gmelin Monday. Kitschelt said that because Germany wants a seat on the United Nations’s permanent Security Council, it will have to become friendlier to the United States. Christoph Peters, a German who is at Duke in the Media Fellows pro-

gram, said that the responsibility of mending the relationship will most likely fall on German foreign minister Joschka Fischer, who is the popular leader of the Greens and whose comments on the United States were much more measured during the election. The Greens’ performance in the election, many analysts say, propelled Schroder to his reelection. “I think [U.S.-German relations] are extremely strong,” Walther said. “Germans have been very, very pro-American since the war. They have not forgotten the Marshall Plan, they know how important it is to have America as an ally. Every German government, including Schroder’s government, has been a very strong ally of America.”

James Coleman, a Duke professor of the practice of law and chair of the ABA Moratorium Implementation Project Steering Committee, said the ABA is not an abolitionist organization but is concerned about how the death penalty works in the context of the justice system. He also defended the organization’s decision to support a moratorium. “The organization had to be concerned that flaws in the system were

not being addressed,” Coleman said. “If we don’t do something about flaws in the system, the more there will be.” He added that the death penalty is an issue of defendants’ rights as well as of public safety. William Über, a Chapel Hill resident, was the only speaker at the meeting who opposed the moratorium. He decried the desire for a moratorium and said they had eventual abolition on their agenda. “Their stance... removes choices in sentencing from our courts when executions truly are appropriate,” Über said. “Their stance is one of absolutes.” He further criticized the group for attacking the death penalty instead of “offering support or insight into methods on how to improve [the] court system.”

MOSCOW Relying on an analysis ofclandestine tape recordings, the United States has concluded that President Leonid Kuchma of Ukraine personally approved a plan in July 2000 to sell Iraq an advanced radar system that can detect approaching aircraft without their pilots’ knowledge. Although there is no definitive proof that the sale was made, the government has “some indications” that the radars are now inside Iraq, said a high-level U.S. official. The radar system, nicknamed Kolchuga after the Russian word for chain-mail armor, is a so-called passive radar system. It has a complex of four receivers that pick up and coordinate the position of signals emitted by approaching objects. It is described as capable of detecting

claimed that it’s able to detect even so-called stealth aircraft without being detected itself. When Ukraine first exhibited the radars at a Jordan arms show in April 2000, it claimed that they were the most ad-

vanced in the world. Steven Zaluga, a military technology analyst for the Virginia-based consulting firm Teal Group Corp., said the ability of such passive systems to spot stealth aircraft is overrated, largely because American stealth fighters and bombers emit few or no signals. Conventional American fighter jets emit signals from altimeters, radar and other devices. The question, Zaluga said, is whether the Kolchuga system is so-

“If it’s a high-quality system, it would be of some concern,” Zaluga said. Experts at the Justice Department and elsewhere in the U.S. government said they have determined the authenticity of a a clandestine tape-recording in which a voice believed to be Kuchma’s is heard discussing smuggling the radar system to Iraq. That tape, along with 300 hours of other secretly recorded conversations, were brought to the United States by a one-time presidential security guard, Mykola Melnychenko, who fled Ukraine in 2001.

Officials meet to discuss standoff in West Bank Diplomats exchange opposing views but no end seems in sight to Israeli siege on Arafat By COLIN NIKERSON

New York Times News Service

For the first time since Israeli JERUSALEM forces blasted into Yasser Arafat’s headquarters compound and razed much ofit, Palestinian and Israeli officials met Monday in an effort to find away out of the dangerous standoff in the West Bank city ofRamallah. The meeting between Palestinian Cabinet minister Saeb Erekat and Brigadier General Eival Giladi, however, resulted in little more than a stiff exchange of opposing views, and there was no end in sight to the siege that has drawn international condemnation of Israel while boosting Arafat’s image across the Arab world. Arafat, through Erekat, flatly rejected an Israeli demand that he provide a list of all those trapped with him in the besieged office structure. “We told Israel that this is none oftheir business and that we want a total and unconditional withdrawal of forces from (around) Arafat’s office,” Erekat said. But there was one small sign of easing tensions—in a mercy mission, Israeli soldiers delivered emergency supplies to Arafat and his retinue, including 1,000 loaves of pita bread, drinking water, canned chickpeas, AMMAR AWAD/REUTERS batteries, shampoo, brooms and three cartons of unAN ISRAELI TANK in position in the destroyed compound of Palestinian President Yasser Arafat in the West Bank city of Ramallah. Isderwear “in assorted sizes,” according to a military raeli troops pressed on with their siege of Arafat’s West Bank headquarters Monday.

spokesman The coalition government of Prime Minister Ariel Sharon appeared deeply divided over the aim of an operation that started as a reprisal raid for a pair of suicide attacks last week and ended with the near-total destruction of Arafat’s sprawling administrative and security headquarters, once a proud symbol of Palestinian autonomy. Except for the single shell-scarred wing of an edifice where Arafat and 200 to 300 loyalists remain holed up in four or five rooms, every structure in the compound was demolished by sapper blasts and the blades of heavy construction equipment.

Hard-liners within the Israeli cabinet contend that

the siege should be pressed until Arafat agrees to deportation from the West Bank, as Sharon and his Likud party associates have long desired. “He will be deported; this man is finished,” said Environment Minister Tzachi Hanegbi, a member of Sharon’s Likud party. “It may be this month, it may be next month, but it is just a matter of time. It is clear that this man has no place in the sphere that desires peace in the Middle East.” Anger over the Israeli siege of Arafat’s headquarters spilled over into the United Nations Security Council, which held an open meeting on the crisis Monday. The United States and Syria offered dueling

draft resolutions calling for an end to the violence, Syria, acting on the Palestinians’ behalf, offered a draft resolution that demanded the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Palestinian cities. The draft called on the 15-member council to say it was “gravely concemed” by the reoccupation of Arafat’s compound by Israeli forces. But the United States, calling the Palestinian-inspired resolution “one-sided,” hinted it would veto the measure and introduce its own. The Israeli government holds Arafat personally reSee WEST BANK on page 8

If the Kolchuga radars from Ukraine are proven to be in Iraq, it could lead to more severe punishment under both American law and the international arms embargo imposed on Iraq by the United Nations. “We’re looking at a range of things in terms of how we engage Ukraine and how we talk to Kuchma,” the US. official said of the policy review. “We’re hopeful that it will come to a conclusion in about a week or so that we can make a recommendation for a White House decision.” Over the last five years Ukraine has become the world’s sixth-largest arms supplier.

In addition, unexpectedly high summer session attendance brought Arts and Sciences an extra $1 million revenue. Chafe said he expected the higher attendance trend to continue for the next few years and Arts and Sciences Council chair Ronald Witt said that for the first time, administrators will be able to look to summer school revenue as a large source of income. The Annual Fund’s better-than-expected performance came within $lOO,OOO of its $9.4 million goal, a hefty portion of which goes to Arts and Sciences. “With the markets in a downward cycle and the economic news more bad than good, we could easily face another year of struggle in achieving our goals,” Chafe

said in his Sept. 12 “state of the school” address to the Arts and Sciences Council. “But I am proud of how we responded thus far, and grateful to the dedication, skill and commitment of our development staff, and the abiding generosity and loyalty of our donors.” Chafe, in his speech last year, said that faculty and department chairs faced “tough choices” of cutting new faculty positions or faculty pay raises. Witt said, however, Chafe struck a more optimistic tone this year. Chafe nonetheless predicted a $3 million deficit for the coming year and possibly even higher deficits over the next few years, while expressing hope that the impact of those shortfalls might be minimized. Chafe listed an additional $lO million to $l5 million in possible expenses for maintaining and operating new facilities, like the French Science Center, the Center for Human Disease Models, the Nasher Art Museum and the Perkins Library and Sanford Institute of Public Policy additions, all of which have begun construction or are in the planning phases. In his speech, Chafe also listed increasing socioeconomic diversity as a top goal, which would mean accepting more applicants who qualify for financial aid. He noted that if the University is significantly successful at this goal, it will have to in-

crease the current 20 percent of tuition revenues allocated for financial aid. “We would look first to growth in restricted support from the [capital] campaign to support this increasing diversity; it will be a gradual rather than a sudden process as the kinds of recruiting initiatives that Dean Chafe described begin to bear fruit,” Roberts wrote. “If necessary, we would adjust the amount of unrestricted support... to keep up with our commitment to needblind admissions and meeting full need.” To meet additional costs, Chafe proposed increasing the size of the undergraduate student body by 50 students per class over the next three to four years. Any increase would have to almost certainly include increasing not just Trinity students, but also Pratt

School of Engineering students. The engineering school’s budgeting process is separate, however, from Arts and Sciences. Chafe maintained that Duke would not increase undergraduate class size if doing so would make it less selective. Last year the school accepted 22.5 percent of its applicants, down from 24.5 percent the year before, but is still less selective than peer institutions. “We’re trying to stay on an upward trajectory [for selectivity],” he said.

Franks: Navy game best chance for 2nd victory Durham County’s newest sheriff proclaims Navy must-win game, worries about Navy’s option By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle

There’s a new sheriff in town. Head football coach Carl Franks was named honorary sheriff of Durham County for his heroics in saving a man who drove his car into Rolling View Marina Sept. 21, 2001. Durham Sheriff

Worth Hill unexpectedly presented Franks with an honorary plaque at a press conference Monday. “Where’s my badge?” Franks joked. Franks was completely surprised by the honor, and appeared as if he did not know how to react. “It was very nice of Sheriff Hill to come over and present [the plaque] himself,” he said. “I don’t know, it’s a nice honor to have.” Franks also congratulated Hill on his win in the recent election, but when asked if he voted for him, he sheepishly responded, “Oh, yeah.”

Matters quickly turned to football,

with Franks optimistic about Duke’s chances Saturday against Navy. At the beginning of the season, the game against the Midshipmen was looked at as the key game to end the Blue Devils’ losing streak. And although Duke defeated East Carolina in the first game of the season to end its woeful streak,

Franks still considers the game as the most important of the season. “It’s a game we need to win,” he said. “It’s a game as important as East Carolina. It’s not going to be easy. I’m sure Navy feels they can win, too.” Junior running back Chris Douglas, who sat out the game against Florida State with an ankle injury, will play this week. Franks said that Douglas was available to play last week, but he felt it was better for Douglas to resfran injury that he has continually re-aggravated every game. “He could have played,” Franks said. “I was just concerned that it would have continued to be a problem. We had to give him some time to rest it. I just thought it was much better off in the long run if we rested Chris Douglas and let him get healthy.” Back-up running back Cedric Dargan has also had injury problems this season, and Franks said he was extremely grateful for the running ofAlex Wade. “I don’t know how much improvement he’s made other than [that] he’s stayed healthy,” he said. “He’s had the ability to do this stuff since his freshman year.” Franks said that he needs the runSee FOOTBALL on page 14

Georgia Tech loses back, N.C. State gains another By KEITH PARSONS

By DAVID DROSCHAK

The Associated Press

Georgia Tech tailback ATLANTA Tony Rollings, a converted safety who was leading the nation in rushing, is out

RALEIGH Can North Carolina State’s T.A. McLendon become the next Bo Jackson or Herschel Walker? Jackson and Walker came from small high schools—just like McLendon—and went on to win the Heisman Trophy in the 1980s for Auburn and Georgia as powerful running backs who combined power and speed. McLendon, the prep record-holder with 170 career rushing touchdowns, is well on his way to stardom. The 215-pounder will take over the starting running back spot for the 17thranked Wolfpack (5-0) this weekend against Massachusetts just six games into his college career, coach Chuck Amato said Monday. McLendon’s 150-yard, five-touchdown performance in last Saturday’s 51-48

for the season with a tom knee ligament. Rollings ran for 633 yards and 11 touchdowns in four games, but tests on Monday confirmed the damage. He’ll miss the season’s final eight games, including a trip to North Carolina on Saturday. “Any time you lose a back the caliber of Tony Rollings, it certainly affects your team,” coach Chan Gailey said. “We’re all disappointed for Tony because he had basically come out of nowhere to become the leading rusher

in the nation,” Rollings hurt the knee Saturday during the Yellow Jackets’ 28-19 victory over BYU. With 3:29 left, he gained 4 yards when his right knee appeared to bend inward as he planted his right foot. He hurt the same knee in the third quarter and had to be helped off the field, but he was out for only a few plays before returning to run for two more TDs. Rollings, a junior, had four straight 100-yard games, helping Georgia Tech start 3-1. Against the Cougars, he finished with a career-high 189 yards and three touchdowns. “We tell our players all the time that you have to handle adversity,” Gailey said. “It’s not a matter of whether or not you’re going to have adversity. You’re going to have adversity. It’s how you handle it that counts.” Ajenavi Eziemefe appears to be the likely choice to take Rollings’ spot in the lineup. He ran for 25 yards against

TONY HOLLINGS ran for 189 yards and three touchdowns against BYU, before injuring his knee. BYU and scored his first career touchdown. Sidney Ford and Gordon Clinkscale both have concussions, leaving Jermaine Hatch as the only other healthy tailback. “We’re going to have to wait and see how we handle the tailback situation,” Gailey said. “In the next two days, we are going to evaluate exactly where we are at the running back position and what we need to do. I think we’ll have a better feel Tuesday.

play,” Amato said. Amato said preseason starter Greg Golden would move back to defensive back and make way for McLendon, who played for 1-A state champion Albemarle last season. McLendon was slated to start last Saturday, but was late for the team bus. “It shows you how good he really is,” Amato said when asked about McLendon’s adjustment from a small high school to big-time college ball in a matter ofmonths. “Bo Jackson played in a 1-A league and Herschel Walker played in a 1-A league. So, why can’t it happen [to

T.AJ.”

McLendon has already shown an

ability to break tackles and run for tough yardage despite a nagging shoulder injury. And he still has a knack for getting into the end zone. He’s scored eight TDs in just four games. “We knew the first time he carried the ball on in an inside drill here it was ‘bang,”’ Amato said. “He’s so strong from his hips down. He probably made two or three of the best 3yard runs you’ll ever see the other day. It was total effort—second effort and third effort.” McLendon heads into Saturday’s game as the top freshmen running back in the Atlantic Coast Conference and fourth overall in the league, averaging 76 yards a game. “He’s so natural,” Amato said. “He’s tough, he’s a competitor, he’s strong—and guess what—he’s going to get stronger and tougher and continue to compete. If he was playing at Syracuse he would be wearing the proper number.”

Amato was referring to Jim Brown’s No. 32. Brown is regarded as the toughest running back of all time. N.C. State tight end Sean Berton doesn’t necessarily believe McLendon gears it up when he gets close to the goal line. “It seems like T.A. has the knack of getting the first down or the three extra yards, too,” Berton said. “I don’t know how much of that is getting into the end zone or just being a talented player.” Josh Brown will back up McLendon at tailback. Amato said Golden, who averaged 4.3 yards a carry at his new position, would get about 20 minutes of offensive work every practice to remain sharp at tailback.

MCCAIN

“It’s becoming the norm for players to leave early,” Ashworth said. “Like every other sport, the money is there. It’s a tough situation because we obviously want Kelly to develop fast but we would also love to have her stay at Duke.” Although the women’s tennis team has a very high graduation rate, it has not been immune to the early exodus to the pro tour. In 2001, after a stellar freshman campaign similar to McCain’s, Ansley Cargill decided to forgo her final three years of college eligibility and play full-time on the WTA Tour. Cargill has since climbed in the rankings and has reached a career-best No. 139 in the world. For her part, McCain knows that she has come a long way since receiving her first wild-card entry into a professional event at age 15. At that particular tournament, McCain she admits to being “scared to death” before getting blown out in her opening match. After a few more years of experience, she also realizes the harsh reality that awaits her when she enters the professional tennis world. “If you actually make it and do well, you live like a queen,” McCain said. “But when you’re starting out it’s a hard life. You just play and hope you make enough money for the next week.” McCain’s success thus far is hardly surprising given her pre-collegiate experience. After learning tennis as a kid from her father, who is a teaching professional in Florida, McCain’s game quickly took off. By the time she was just 12 years old, she was regularly beating the nation’s top players in the 14and-under division. During her Juniors career, McCain captured numerous national titles and competed for the United States throughout Asia, Australia and Europe. Her success made her the main target of many college’s recruiting efforts, and, of course, she faced the temptation to turn pro. “The pros was an option,” McCain said. “But I really wanted to experience college life. It came down to Florida or Duke. I knew a lot of players on the Duke team and felt comfortable here.” McCain’s strong baseline game and incredible

quickness around the court earned her a No. 2 national ranking in the 18-and-under age division in 1999, and her game has continued to develop at Duke. “Kelly has become a much more complete player,” Ashworth said. “She’s more aggressive in singles and she can beat someone at the net. Her groundstrokes were good when she came to Duke, but they’re even better now.” One of McCain’s only potential drawbacks, though, is her lack of size. At 5-foot-2, she is dwarfed by most of her peers in college and on the pro tour. “She is 5-2, but she doesn’t play like it,” Ashworth said. “She’s strong, she hits hard and she moves as well as anyone. Still, on the pro tour her body will have to get used to the physical pounding and constant playing.” Although the lure of professional life will remain in the back of McCain’s mind, she has some unfinished business to take care of at Duke. After a disappointing team showing at the NCAA Championships last spring, she is ready to lead the Blue Devils to greater heights. “We have a really good team,” she said. “We can definitely go all the way this year.” McCain has the chance not only to lead Duke to its first-ever NCAA title, but she could also take home individual honors in the singles and doubles championship. After an upsetting first-round loss in the singles draw last season, McCain is looking to make her mark as a sophomore. “I would love to win NCAAs,” she said. “But there are a lot of strong players out there.” McCain and senior Hillary Adams, who won several national titles together in the juniors, also look poised to make a strong run at the doubles title after last year’s semifinal performance. “Kelly is an amazing player,” Adams said. “She looks even better than last year, and a national championship is definitely realistic.” McCain’s results on the college level could help determine whether or not she returns to Duke for her junior season. Whatever the future holds, though, Duke is fortunate to have her talents for at least one more year.

ning game to be successful to help develop his new quarterbacks, and that Wade’s running for over 100 yards in three of the four games this season has been instrumental. Franks said he hopes he can continue his successful season against Navy.

Northwestern, the team that defeated Duke 26-21 Sept. 14, beat Navy last week 49-40. Franks said he feels that it will be an advantage on offense to have common opponents. This will allow Duke to see how Navy’s defense reacts to game situations Duke has experienced. Contrarily, Franks said having a common opponent will not help at all for Duke’s defensive strategy. Navy runs an option offense, something the Blue Devils have not yet seen this year. Franks added his team may practice without a football in order to make sure all assignments are covered. “The only thing that’s going to help us defensively is to go out there and

he said. Many undersized teams run the option because it forces low blocks. Low blocks are dangerous, though legal, and Franks said he is worried for his players health in the game. “It allows their lineman, who aren’t as big as some people, to block down,” he said. “[N.C.] State had a lot of injuries after they played Navy. They’re legal blocks. We have the halo rule to prevent injuries on the punt returners. If we really wanted to prevent injuries, we would do-away with blocking below the waist.” Franks also said that the option has been successful for some teams without much talent because ofits limited use. “[The option] is something that you don’t see very often,” he said. “You only have four days to prepare for it.” Franks added that he is going to try to improve on his team’s lackluster depth and short bench. He began to work on the problem by playing the most players of any game this season against Florida State.

—ss A LIP-less DSG

The

twin labels of inefficiency and ineffectiveness are perennially attached to Duke Student Government, in many cases with good reason. Fractious leadership, uncertain priorities and long meetings with few results have long characterized undergraduate governance, with the exception of a few projects each year. By eliminating legislative individual projects this year, DSG has finally taken a structural step in the right direction. LIPs did have a legitimate, if small role in serving the undergraduate student body. Under the old system, in which each of DSG’s 50 legislators needed to identify a project she would accomplish during her term, members of the legislature would identify and sometimes fix a couple problems each year. Music piped into the weight room ofWilson Recreation Center was just one example of a successful project. Far more often than not, however, LIPs would become a vehicle for increased inefficiency. Legislators would routinely propose ideas that had been tried and failed, that lacked any sense of feasability or were just a cover to hide a lack of productivity. In just one uninformed example, legislators have proposed overhauls of Curriculum 2000 before the system had been in place for very long. Even those projects that showed promise could easily drown in a sea of poor ideas because there were too few people in DSG leadership to oversee or advise on 50 individual projects. By contrast, this year’s plan to center initiatives around DSG committees makes far more sense. Recent history has shown that student government—with no hard power of its own—works best when experienced DSG leaders, backed by a group of enthusiastic students, researches a few issues thoroughly and then strongly lobbies or works with the administration. Choosing just a few issues will allow DSG to focus on what is really important, make more concrete progress and earn back student respect. In particular, the student government’s efforts on financial aid have served as a model, as informed arguments and follow-up statements have led to change. For those few smaller projects that still need individual attention each year, DSG leaders have said that legislators can still choose a LIP spring semester. Hopefully this will ensure legislative responsiveness, but eliminating LIPs for everyone still carries a very real danger—that the committees will be ineffective and very little will get done. There is no excuse for legislators not serving their constituents, and DSG leaders will need to work harder than ever this year to guide major policy initiatives. For now, however, student government is off to one of its most promising years in some time.

On the record “She went all over the world, promoting dance, looking for dance, bringing'in choreographers to showAmerican dance and teach them modern dance. And then they would go back and teach others and start their own companies. It’s almost a Johnny Appleseed story of dance.” Carlton Midyette from the American Dance Festival describes Stephanie Reinhart (see story, page one)

English also claims that we have used our funding for politics, and he is correct. Last year, during both Black History and Latino Heritage months, funds were used to sponsor political speakers and events, and this week’s celebrations are no different.

Take time to reflect and enjoy Duke’s surroundings I have something to show you, to share with you. I want you to really get to know nature. Leave from wherever here is. Whether it be the Duke

Gardens, the Duke Forest, the beach, wherever, go and make love to nature. It is an essential part of every emotionally nourished, well-rounded and grounded human being. As students, we all budget our time; we think that we budget it well. I would wager that very few people specifically allocate time for inner reflection in a wholly immersed atmosphere. Make a commitment to being free of technology and material desires. For an hour, go minimalistic, reduce the

world to the natural beauty that it so plentifully provides. To fully enjoy this time, you must put all worries and responsibilities aside. Childishly frolick in the gardens. Breathe it in, absorb its essence. Let it leave its mark on you. Make time for it. We have unique luxuries at Duke, luxuries that we often times choose to ignore. The gardens and forest are lovely places where beauty reigns supreme. Deprioritize efficient time management; your time reflecting in nature will be time well spent. This past Friday I went Duke (via to Japan Gardens) with a friend and a very dear friend. We shared the dreams, desires

and idealistic visions that make us unique. We understand each other a little better and we undestand ourselves a lot more. We left feeling deeply happy, having shared something profound. I like to define living as an enriching, profound, and mutual experience with live and vibrant beings. Go away from the places you are used to. Explore something new. You have the time, make it. Learn about each other; learn from each other. Prioritize deep

reflection. It will be intellectually, emotionally and spriritually rewarding. Matthew Tolnick Trinity ’O5

TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 24. 2002 »PAGE 19

Saddam and his worthless nukes As the rhetoric surrounding the Iraq question intensifies, it has become fashionable for White House insiders to compare this debate to that which took place in pre-World War II Britain. In this delightful Churchillian fantasy, President George W. Bush’s prophetic vision is destined to save the western world from the fallacies of appeasement What a tantalizing thought—Bush as the second Churchill! Before Bush starts demanding his knighthood, it is only sensible to debunk this whole t parable. As a tremen- Molchanov dous admirer of Sir Politics and Winston, I dare say Other Mears ,

that it

more than a

little disingenuous to liken the current president, as capable as he may be, to the greatest wartime statesman of the last century. More importantly, it is ludicrous to suppose that the threat currently posed to the United States by Iraq is anything like that posed by Germany to global security in 1939. The Wehrmacht was the most powerful military in the world, had taken over much of central Europe, and represented a clear existential threat to Britain. Iraq’s army, at only a third of its 1991 strength and largely made up of hungry conscripts, makes Saddam the head of a middling regional power. Iraq failed to defeat Iran in the 1980s—despite its use, as everyone hastens to point out, of chemical weapons—and as things stand, Saudi Arabia alone could probablyknock over the corrupt Baghdad regime. Iraq has no navy or air force to speak of, and no-fly zones mean that half of his own

country is out of Saddam’s reach. Ah yes, the hawks declare, but Saddam has chemical weapons—and what’s more, he is the only living world leader to have actually used them! Yes, he did, there is no doubt about that, but that fact says nothing about his willingness to use them against the United States. Consider the targets against whom he used these weapons. What did Iran and Iraqi Kurds have in common? Both lacked any serious retaliatory capability, and Saddam knew it. Now, note the targets he did not attack with nonconventional weapons when he had the chance—Israel, U.S. bases around the gulf and the coalition forces that massed on Iraq’s borders in 1991. Saddam had at his disposal anthrax, VX, mustard gas and all the other parts ofhis maniacal toolkit. He had publicly threatened to “bum half of Israel.” But he didn’t do that. He didn’t even try. Why not? Because unlike Iran and the Kurds, the potential targets listed above were capable of massive retaliation, and that is something Saddam cannot afford not to fear. Dick Cheney, then Secretary of Defense, warned in 1991 that “we have a wide range of military capabilities that will let us respond with overwhelming force... should he be foolish enough to use chemical weapons.” British Foreign Secretary Douglas Hurd added that such a move on Iraq’s part would “provoke a response that would completely destroy that country.” The Israelis had nuclear missiles on alert and were ready to launch on warning. It is not hard to discern Saddam’s modus operandi under these circumstances. He blustered and blustered, as all petty despots tend to do, but at the eleventh hour—the moment

of truth—he blinked. Self-preservation, rather than the alternative, was his preferred choice. It usually is for people who make decisions based on a simple dichotomy—do they gain, or do they lose? The fear now is that Saddam is only a few years away from developing a workable

nuclear device, armed with which he could extort

As serious as this threat may be, it is less terrifying than the prospect of a war gone awry—a risk that cannot be discounted. Imagine this nightmare

scenario. Once U.S. forces war invade argument Iraq with more the stated objective to a group of regime change, Saddam knows that the game is over unconstrained by the fear of retaliation, uses his last hours in power to attack the closest U.S. ally, Israel, with toxin-armed warheads. We all know how Israel would respond. If Bush goes ahead with his plan, there will be a plausible threat of a regional nuclear war. This is far too high a price to pay for ending an uncomfortable, though stable, status quo. Regime change would be justified only if Saddam did one of the following in the future: provoke a confrontation by attacking a neighbor; threaten the United States or its allies with nonconventional weapons; or sponsor acts of terror and groups that plan them. For now, inspectors need to do their job, and I am inclined to believe that the Iraqi leadership has done some thinking and is now serious about complying. Let us give it an opportunity to follow through. Any other course of action, to use the words of the president’s father, just wouldn’t be prudent.

for The strongest is that Iraq might give (or, likely, sell) his nukes like al Qaeda.

concessions from his neighbors and the West. That may be his aim, but I fail to see how nukes

will strengthen his hand. If nuclear blackmail were effective, Taiwan would ruled by Beijing, and Berliners would be learning Russian instead of listening to Kennedy speeches. More firepower will not give Saddam what he most wants—hegemony in the Arab world—because the balance of power is still tilted against him and always will be. The strongest argument for war is that Iraq might give (or, more likely, sell) his nukes to a group like al Qaeda. Admittedly, this is a far more credible threat than launching missiles at Riyadh. While there can be no guarantee that he won’t engage in such dirty commerce, there is no evidence that he ever did, since ruling the gulf is at odds with Islamic radicals. I would also argue that Saddam and his advisors are smart enough to understand the consequences of a nuclear attack on New York or London.

Tuesday.

An unrefined whine When it comes to personal responsibility, Duke students don’t measure up Being 700 miles from campus, I’ll admit that it is difficult to follow the everyday ins and outs of Duke. In addition, it’s hard to follow what passes for logic in the current alcohol debate. I went to a few Duke football games during my four years, and unless that one win against East Carolina changed a lot, I've got to ask: What is the big deal with kegs and tailgating? Duke has five or six home football games a year. The few times I’ve been to a tailgate, there were more people

JHL/

w from (insert opponent’s team name here) tailgating than there were Pama Duke students tailgating, standing around, praying for a win. Off the Record The kegs issue is being framed as the latest power grab by an administration desperate to create a culture of behind-closed-door drinking that will lead to hundreds of students in the emergency room, as part of an even larger conspiracy to eliminate fraternities, sterilize student life and send Duke into a Prohibition-era level of dryness. Ever since the University community lost a student to alcohol poisoning, brought about by a closeddoor binge, there has been a quixotic effort by the administration to tighten the taps. At first there existed the double-vision alcohol task force—half of which reminisced about the 18th Amendment the other half hoped to fit the University with alcohol blinders. After numerous failed attempts at alternative programming, the University decided on a “let boys be boys with their mother around” policy and began the current “party monitor” system. Is it working? The sky-high number of trips to the Emergency Room that came with the half-Gestapo/half-blinders system went down under the party monitor system. .•

It’s far from a grand conspiracy, quite the opposite really. Duke students whine that the social scene was also a casualty of the party policy, but that was dying long before. What is killing Duke’s social scene and exaggerating the obstacle posed by Duke’s alcohol policy is college life lesson number one: Personal Responsibility—something that Duke students largely learn by accident. The University does not need a first-year writing course; they need a first-year thinking course. The Duke student attitude toward most affairs is “someone else will do it for me.” I am not referencing the “personal responsibility” that your father will nag you about until you are raising your own children (at that point, he will then try to undermine your efforts to teach your own children about personal responsibility by being the favorite grandparent—he does this out of revenge, not love). I’m talking about taking charge of situations—both juvenile and adult—and dealing with them in a mature, if not clever, fashion. The recent keg whine exemplifies the problem. Starting with the undergraduate motto when it comes to tightening of alcohol policy: “College students will drink no matter what policies you implement,” it is easy to see the logical hole of complaining about kegs. The motto is a true statement, but students are not doing their part. Why complain about how someone else is ruining your fun by taking away your tap when you can: (a) bring other containers of alcohol besides a keg to an event or (b) drink before you go? That’s Problem Solving 101. That’s also a tacit endorsement of closed-door drinking—which when done with an ounce of personal responsibility does not result in death or trips to the hospital. Duke students have created a culture of irresponsibility when it comes to alcohol. The coddling and “it’s not our fault” approach is leading to

the decline of social life faster than any sneaky effort to eliminate fraternities. Speaking of fraternities, there’s another example of personal responsibility. A friend of mine who is in the greek system and I used to joke that if Duke wanted to eliminate fraternities, their best bet was to just throw all of the fraternities into Edens Quadcreating an “Animal Quad” and allowing Darwinism to work its way through the system. But there is no reason that Duke cannot have a greek system and also have a vibrant social life under the current policy. Will it take creativity? Yes. Will it take responsibility? Yes. Does that mean that smashing your restroom, watching three freshmen leave a party for the ER and trying to fight with Duke police officers are bad ideas? Yes. Students seem to prefer to run from responsibility when they need to take it by the horns. At all college campuses, there is an unrefined whine about how the system forces students into situations where they must behave immaturely. Young adults outside America’s college campuses do not have the ability to blame rules that force them to act irresponsibly—let alone do they have a chance to escape the consequences of their actions. Why should Americas best and brightest be held to a lower standard? And another question; If Duke students do act responsibly, will the administration focus their attention on the changed student body? Or will a continued policy of making excuses raise some legitimate questions about the University’s motives? As it always is, the students are responsible for what happens next.

CAREER FAIR GUIDE

September 24, 2002

WELCOME TO THE FALL 2002 CAREER FAIR! Wednesday, September 25, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. representatives from companies and organiza-

tions from across the U.S. will be occupying all levels of the Bryan Center, each and every one reaching out to you, motivated and able Duke students. All of these companies have come out to see you, so make the most out of this great opportunity and come out to see them! Still need convincing? 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. Especially in today’s tight labor market, employers are seeking well-educated, bright, and enthusiastic employees. Recruiters know that Duke students will be highly successful in whatever industry they choose and therefore seek students as full-time employees and summer interns for a wide variety of positions in all different fields. 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 where your professional future will take you. 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 Guideand 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 Website 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

Consulting Group

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 of clean copies of your 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 BlueDevilTßAK user, be sure to create a profile as soon as possible (call the Career Center at 660-1070 if you need assistance). Since many of the career fair employers will be using BlueDevilTßAK to manage their campus interview schedule, it benefits you to be a registered user so that it is effortless for them to preselect you for interviews. What will Ifind 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 successful, and stress-free time at the Career Fair! Remember, the Career Center is here only to help you, so any feedback you have for us is always welcome. Our staff will be available all day tomorrow in the Bryan Center, so look for us if you have any questions or problems. Good luck! Theof The

Act like a professional: Dress professionally plan your interview attire in advance and make sure your clothing is pressed, your shoes are shinned, and your hair and nails are well groomed.

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.

Be honest: Don’t try to cover up mistakes. Instead, focus on how you learned from them. 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. Follow up: Ask the interviewer for a business card and send a thank-you note or e-mail as soon as possible.
