THE INDEPENDENT DAILY AT DUKE UNIVERSITY

Krzyzewski nets SI.3M, highest pay Mezzatesta � Duke released its latest tax forms last week, revealing the compensation for the highest paid employees at the University and Health System. By CINDY YEE The Chronicle

After a one-year stint away from the top ofthe payroll, men’s basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski reclaimed the fattest University paycheck in the 2001-02 fiscal year. According to the University’s Internal Revenue Service 990 tax forms, Krzyzewski received a total compensation of $1,326,933—m0re than twice what he received in 2000-01. Krzyzewski replaced Dr. Ralph Snyderman, Health System CEO, as the highest paid Duke employee. In the previous year, Snyderman received the greatest total compensation package with $1,156,277, followed by Sallie Shupping-Russell, a former investment manager at Duke University Management Co., and Krzyzewski. While Snyderman’s salary increased from $448,456 to $456,228 in the fiscal year ending in 2002, Krzyzewski’s made an even greater leap from $589,300 to $742,683. In addition to his base salary, Krzyzewski received $519,218 for his expense account and other allowances and $65,032 in his employee benefit plan. John Bumess, senior vice president for public affairs and government relations, declined to go into details regarding increases in Krzyzewski’s salary and total

The decision not to renew Mezzatesta’s contract caught many off guard, both within and outside of the University. “We were somewhat taken by surprise because we didn’t expect there to be a

Humphries abandons Duke hoops By MIKE COREY The Chronicle

Kris Humphries, a 6-foot-8 McDonald’s All-American from Minnesota, was granted his release from his National Letter of Intent to play basketball for Duke Monday afternoon. As of Wednesday evening, the reasons behind Humphries’ requested release were still unclear. “I really don’t know why Kris has asked for his release,” Humphries’ high school head coach Ken Novak wrote in an e-mail Wednesday. “He seemed to love everything about Duke.... I’m sure Kris will clarify things at a later date.” For now, however, the Hopkins High School star has left the world of college basketball guessing. Speculation has abounded regarding where Humphries will attend school in the fall, with the top three schools predicted as the University See HUMPHRIES on page 12

But the agreement will allow the administration to claim success in its principal drive to reduce the tax on stock dividends—and even eliminate the tax entirely, if briefly, for some taxpayers. The measure would reduce the tax rate on capital gains and dividends to 15 percent for most taxpayers for five years and then reinstate the higher existing rates in 2008. Republicans have said they hope to extend the tax cut before it expires. The package would put into effect this year lower tax rates for middle and upper-income taxpayers that were not scheduled to become effective until 2006. For the next two years, it would give a tax break to married couples, and increase the tax

credit for children to $l,OOO from $6OO per child for all but the wealthiest families. The amount would be reduced after the first two children. Beginning in about six weeks, less money would be withheld from workers’ paychecks to reflect the lower tax rates, and checks worth $4OO per child would be mailed to 25 million families with children. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., emerged around 6:30 p.m. after strained negotiations with House and Senate leaders to announce that the plan would win the votes of 50 senators, allowing Cheney to break the tie in a vote expected to take place Friday. The House is scheduled to vote on the same package Thursday.

After a day of WASHINGTON unusually tense negotiations and a series of stormy meetings, U.S. House and Senate leaders reached an agreement Wednesday night on a tax-cut bill that is expected to clear Congress before the week is out, giving President George W. Bush a substantial political victory. The agreement, brokered by Vice President Dick Cheney in a climactic bargaining session, calls for a tax reduction of $3lB billion over 10 years, far less than the $726 billion originally sought by the president and even less than the $350 billion approved by

the Senate last week.

FBI spokesperson Ed Cogswell also said there was no initial communication from any person or group about the explosion. He said FBI agents were at the scene but it was too early to draw conclusions about the blast or

those behind it.

Acting Police Chief Francisco Ortiz said the explosion was being treated as a criminal matter, but no possibility had been ruled out. He said damage was limited to the ceiling and a partition in the classroom. The explosion happened about 5 p.m., sending smoke rising above downtown New Haven. “I saw a huge fireball come out to the middle of the hallway,” said law student Bob Hoo, who was on the ground floor of the law school. “It was there and then it was gone.”

Greek judiciary slaps Sigma Nu By MEGAN CARROLL The Chronicle

Jurors on the newly-established greek judicial board have reached a verdict following an alleged hazing incident April 14 when six Sigma Nu fraternity pledges were found inebriated on Old Erwin Road. During the fall 2003 semester, the fraternity will be prohibited from hosting events on and off campus and from participating in intramural sports and other social and philanthropic chapter events. Additionally, the group will be required to run a Chronicle advertisement during the first week of the upcoming semester, apologizing for the incident and informing the Duke community of the judicial hearing outcome and the ensuing changes made to the chapter. Members must also remove the fraternity bench from outside their residential space in Kilgo Quadrangle. Administrators said members of Sigma Nu also drafted apology letters to the Duke School for Children Middle School, the Durham County Sheriff’s Department, the Chapel Hill Police Department and the Duke University Police Department. University officials added that current pledges will be allowed to participate in initiation within the first two weeks of the fall semester, provided a national representative of the fraternity is present. Furthermore, judicial affairs deans will meet with future Sigma Nu recruits in 2004 to ensure that the prospective members understand their responsibilities and the hazing policy. Dean ofStudents Sue Wasiolek said the members of Sigma Nu are committed to complying with all sections of the verdict. “My sense is that the fraternity is positioned to really embrace this situation and to make the very best of it,” Wasiolek said. “If they fulfill Ml parts of the sanction, they will be in a very different place than they are in now, and the likelihood of them repeating a situation like this would be minimized.” Sigma Nu President Andrew Axelrod declined to comment on the case. He wrote in an e-mail that, in the best interests of the fraternity, his group will directly address the entire University community in the fall semester about the matter, in lieu of comment now. Associate Dean of Students for Judicial Affairs Kacie Wallace said cases involving hazing incidents are new to jurors on the greek judicial board who See SIGMA NU on page 6

CONSTRUCTION WORKERS lay the foundations of the new Nasher Museum of Art, a $23 million facility located on Campus Drive. The project should open as soon as fall 2004.

Nasher construction underway By CINDY YEE The Chronicle

It’s summer in Durham, but some things have changed since last year. Students and visitors don sweatshirts over their summer tees. Drought has given way to ever-present rain puddles. And something is different about Campus Drive. Construction is underway on the new Nasher Museum of Art, the pet project of outgoing Director of the Duke University Museum of Art Michael Mezzatesta. The $23 million museum, which will replace the East Campus DUMA, is set for completion by summer 2004 and should open the following fall. Although the construction site on Anderson Street and Campus Drive does not look like much now, Executive Vice President Tallman Trask said passers-by should see evidence of above-ground construction in the next month or so. “Right now it looks sort of like a big mudpile,” Trask

said. “It’s basically been earthwork until now, but give us 60 days and it’ll look better.” Trask said construction has caused only minimal disturbances to daily campus operations. Alexander Road is now closed between Campus Drive and Duke University Road. Otherwise, construction has not affected surrounding traffic, except when workers reduced Campus Drive to one lane last week to lay down a drain pipe. Construction is currently three or four weeks behind schedule, due to rain and unexpected groundwater at the site, Trask said. The Beck Group construction crew was able to work only nine days in February, but they did create a new entranceway to the museum on Anderson and clear away debris from the site. Since then, the construction team has continued work on the museum parking lot and poured some of See NASHER on page 8

Eyeing Village, Moneta hires development officer By ANDREW COLLINS The Chronicle

Faced with financing a new student village that could cost more than $5O million, administrators in the Office of Student Affairs have created a new fulltime position, director of development for student affairs, and appointed longtime development specialist Treat Harvey to fill that post. Harvey, assistant director of corporate and foundation relations since 2001, has over 20 years experience in development, marketing and sales. Her expertise will be needed to obtain donations for one of the most expensive student affairs projects ever. Student affairs fundraising was previously conducted in the Office of Corpo-

rate and Foundation Relations, like other projects throughout the University. Ultimately, however, Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta decided a full-time position was needed to focus completely on soliciting funds for student affairs. “It’s been sort of assigned to people in

Arts and Sciences and in our office, central development,” Harvey said. “It’s a program assignment area for people like us who work with lots of different priorities. There’s a rotating list of priorities in a campaign this size.” President Nan Keohane said that while student affairs fundraising will be important beyond the current Campaign for Duke that concludes on Dec. 31,2003, she and Moneta thought the time was right to intensify the development effort while the campaign was still in progress. “[Moneta] wants to take advantage of the last seven months of the campaign. He’s already received some support for the Bryan Center renovations, but he’d like to push [student village development] out front while people are still thinking ‘campaign,’” Keohane said. “That doesn’t mean we’ll stop [fundraising] on Dec. 31. But we will then be... thinking about how do we now put our needs, post-campaign, into focus and decide what it is we’re going to ask people to See DEVELOPMENT on page 8

Presidential search committee brainstorms qualities By ALEX GARINGER The Chronicle

The presidential search committee held its first meeting during graduation weekend and, with all members present, established a general timeline for the next 10 months, started compiling a long list of potential candidates and began coming up with qualifications and criteria for the position. Those characteristics are likely to include leader-

ship, commitment to academic excellence and “unquestionable moral and ethical leadership,” said Robert Steel, vice chair of the Board of Trustees and chair of the search committee. “We’re looking for a leader who can lead the place. Leaders come in all sizes and shapes,” he said, adding that the committee will release the official description of the type of candidate they seek next month. The “odds are highest” that the next president will have experience in the academic world, Steel said. With the planned departure of President Nan Keohane in June 2004, the Board of Trustees has charged the 15-member search committee to deliver the name of her replacement by the Board’s February 2004 meeting. The search committee—two members ofwhich par-

ticipated in the search for Keohane almost a decade ago—is comprised of Trustees, faculty, students, administrators and an employee. “[The committee members were] fun, friendly, upbeat and ready to get going,” Steel said. “Everyone is there for one reason. You talk about team sports; this is the ultimate team sport. No one is going to be a star here. We’re going to win as one team.” Steel could not offer specifics on the search timeline, but said the committee will meet as a whole about once a month over the summer and subcommittees will meet on an ad hoc basis during the fall. Once the official description of desired qualities is released, committee members will begin paring down the list of potential candidates. The courting process of candidates will be an intricate and delicate one, Steel said, with committee members gathering information about the candidates and then ranking them as “high,” “medium” or “low” priorities. “People will be interested and we’ll be interested in people, and the intersection of those two groups will be really the focus,” Steel said. “Once there are five or six candidates, then several of us on the com-

At the DSG advisory meeting, participants discussed qualities they hope the next president will have. “I’m looking for a president who can articulate their goals at the beginning, who continues to recognize that Duke is a unique institution and that students turn down Harvard and they turn down Morehead scholarships because Duke has something no other university has,” said DSG President Matt Slovik, senior. Steel is open to nominations by the Duke community. “You got ideas, shoot them in, baby,” Steel said, Andrew Collins contributed to this story.

CRIME BRIEFS From staff reports

Students cars broken into

It was discovered May 17 that five vehicles owned by students were broken into at 206 Oregon Street and 1708 Pace Street between the hours of 1 p.m. May 16 and 10:31 a.m. May 17. Windows were damaged to gain entry. A $l2O Sony compact disc player, a $lOO car stereo with a face plate, a $220 Pioneer stereo with a compact disc and a bracelet ofundetermined value were stolen. Damage is estimated at $l,OOO, including the dashboard around the stereo, the air conditioning control panel face and the passenger-side door of one car.

Two charged on pot possession

On May 18 at 9:14 p.m., police came upon two subjects sitting at the picnic area of the Faculty Club. Subsequent investigation resulted in Michael Philip Gilbert, DOB May 22,1982, and Benjamin Summerell, DOB March 17, 1983, being charged with simple possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Two multicolored glass marijuana pipes, a plastic sandwich bag containing a small amount of marijuana, a small glass container with an unknown quantity of marijuana and a black film canister containing numerous marijuana seeds were confiscated.Both were placed under a $l,OOO bond and given July 1 court dates. Neither of the subjects were Duke employees or students. They could not be reached for comment.

From staff reports The Financial Times published its annual rankings of international non-degree executive education programs Monday, placing Duke University second, behind the Columbia Business School in New York. The overall ranking was based on the individual rankings of the Fuqua School of Business and Duke Corporate Education, Inc., a Fuqua corporate spinoff that separated from Fuqua three years ago. Duke Corporate Education ranked first among custom program providers, beating out the Columbia Business School and IMD in Switzerland. Among custom programs—tailor-made for companies that wish to put their executives through specific training or development—Corporate Ed. ranked first in the corporate survey in categories for preparation, course design, teaching materials, faculty, new skills and learning, food and accomodation, facilities and value for money.

Corporate Ed also ranked second for aims achieved, which measures the degree to which academic and business expectations were met, and third for followup, which measures the level offollow-up offered once participants returned to their workplace. Fuqua ranked eighth among open enrollment program providers, falling between the business schools at the University of Virginia and Stanford University. Among open enrollment programs—which are open to all executives—Fuqua also ranked in the top 10 in the subcategories of preparation, course design, follow-up, aims achieved, and food and accomodations. Schools must have more than $2 million of business in both the open enrollment and custom programs categories to participate in the rankings. Each ranking is based upon two surveys, completed by business schools and open enrollment participants or corporate clients.

HIGHEST PAID compensation, noting only that the coach’s total compensation was part of his contractual agreement. “The other allowances can cover a wide range of things,” Bumess said. “In most cases, it’s part of a contractual agreement at the time an individual is hired, or when his contract was renewed.” The 2001-02 tax forms are the first filed after Krzyzewski signed a lifetime contract of undisclosed terms with the University in Nov. 2001. Despite Snyderman’s slight salary increase, his total compensation dropped to $956,057 in the 2001-02 fiscal year, due to a smaller amount given for his expense account and other allowances. Still, the DUHS chief received a sum of $444,994 for other allowances in 2001-02, making him the second highest paid employee at the University. According to Burness, Snyderman was not the only one with a large account for expenses and other allowances. Many employees at the Duke University Medical Center saw increases in 2001-02 for other allowances—a category that includes partial housing allowances, compensation for travel expenses and any other forms of compensation beyond salary and normal fringe benefits, Bumess said. In the 2000-01 fiscal year, for example, Snyderman received over $674,000 outside his salary and employee benefit plan. This sum was the result of both an old real estate loan that was forgiven by the Executive Board of the Board of Trustees and of incentives granted by a compensation committee in the Health System. Rounding out a fist of the 10 highest paid employees at the University for the 2001-02 fiscal year were DUMAC President Thruston Morton, Medical School Dean Dr. Sandy Williams, Executive Vice President and COO of

In that regard, you might expect the possibility of a change, but really it was a complete surprise.” Mezzatesta could not be reached for

Lange said Mezzatesta was “extremely

disappointed” with the decision, but did not wish to comment further on Mezzatesta’s reaction to the decision. Lange also said DUMA staffers were initially confused about the decision, but that many of them have come to understand the need for new leadership. “We’re all going through a process of grieving, in effect, because our leader is leaving, but I think we’ll move on and rally under whomever is brought in,” Evans said. Lange said the decision stemmed from a desire to create one of the premier university museums in the country. “We are looking for a director who can meet the very high expectations we have for

He enlisted renowned architect Rafael Vinoly to design the $23 million structure and has overseen the beginning stages of construction at the new site.

Schroth declined to comment on the decision not to renew Mezzatesta’s contract, instead referring all questions to Evans, DUMA’s public relations specialist. “I personally feel like he’s a very good leader,” Evans said. “I’ve been happy to work here and be associated with him, and I think he will move on and do great things elsewhere.” As DUMA director since 1987, Mezzatesta spent years developing and fundraising

Long stuck with inadequate facilities and a sense of second-class citizenship, a number of departments are rejoicing at the implications of the University’s commitment to procuring and developing new space for the arts. “This represents, from my point of view, a turning point in Duke’s attitude toward the arts,” heighten said. “This is a wonderful development.... It does seem to me that it is going to be very visible that Duke cares about the arts and wants to nurture their development.” The warehouse serves to support the University’s goal of promoting major

multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary programs, detailed in its strategic plan, Building on Excellence. “One of the points of the strategic plan was greater integration of the arts into the academic mission of the University,” Davidson said. “We’re building a beautiful major museum that’s really focusing attention on Duke in a new way. It’s logical, once you have a new museum for the display of art..,, to give first-class and really cool facilities to those who make art.” The warehouse, along with the under-construction Nasher Museum of

Art (see related story, page 3), the Center for Documentary Studies and possibly a new small theater, will form an arts corridor for future generations. Some have discussed constructing a pedestrian bridge from East Campus to the warehouse complex. While much work has to be done on prioritizing, fundraising, planning and execution, optimism is prevalent among many, and everyone has ideas for what to do next. Challenges certainly lie ahead, but with construction on the warehouse underway, the arts at Duke—like Durham itself—may be en-

Mezzatesta was also responsible for such initiatives as the student curatorial program and for outreach to alumni and other art lovers regarding the importance of the arts at the University, Keohane said in a statement. After his current term ends Aug. 31, Mezzatesta will be eligible for a year-long paid sabbatical, during which he can explore other interests and look for other job opportunities. Some of Mezzatesta’s supporters said the decision by Keohane and Lange comes at a particularly bad time, as years of planning and work are just starting to become a reality. “It’s too bad, because now they’re building the new museum and he can’t enjoy that,” Freedman said.

Donations to buildings and the endowment, anticipated for the student village, are generally sought from individuals and some businesses, she said. Those who have worked with Harvey said they are

confident she will do a good job. “I think she’s going to be great. She brings a lot of energy, a lot of experience,” said Mimi O’Brien, director of corporate and foundation relations and vice president for development. “She gets really deeply engaged with the projects she’s working on, and she’s got a really good head for details. These are important traits for people in development.” While in central development, Harvey has worked extensively on the Neighborhood Partnership Initiative and helped secure a $2.25 million grant from the Kellogg Foundation for an after-school program. Prior to coming to the University, Harvey served as director of development for the Durham Arts Council, Inc. Moneta praised Harvey’s personality, energy and enthusiasm and also pointed to her past work as sound preparation for what lies ahead. “She’s certainly very experienced; obviously being part of Duke, she understands the Duke machine,” he said.

Trask said construction crews will not have to alter their work schedules once the fall term commences. “Once they are done working with the roads and everything, it won’t affect anybody,” Trask said. “It’s not like construction around the dorms, which woke people up.” After the University receives a certificate for occupancy for the museum in summer 2004, the process of moving and installing artwork into the new museum will begin, Mezzatesta said. He added that the process of installation will take three to four months. Mezzatesta had been pushing for a new facility for the art museum since he became director of DUMA in 1987. His current contract will expire at the end ofAugust 2003, before the completion of the new museum, and will not be renewed (see related story, page 1). His successor will oversee DUMA’s transition from its East Campus facility to the new building. Mezzatesta said there has been a marked increase in interest in the University’s art museum since con-

“People now see that work is underway and that the museum is now a reality,” Mezzatesta said at the end of April. “Donors and visitors have shown more excitement.” The University continues to raise money to fill the $23 million budget for the new museum. As of last month, fundraisers had secured approximately $lB million, Mezzatesta said. Trask said construction is on target in terms of budget but noted that the structure is still in its very early stages. Mezzatesta said in April that the Nasher Museum of Art, when finished, will merit the years of planning and waiting. The new museum, designed by worldrenowned architect Rafael Vinoly, is named for Raymond Nasher, Trinity ’43, who donated $7.5 million to the new museum. The completed museum will have five individual pavilions linked by a courtyard. The museum will include a 20th century international art gallery, a special exhibitions gallery, a permanent collections gallery, a 150-seat auditorium and an office facility.

No. 3 Duke sinks in swamp again By CATHERINE SULLIVAN The Chronicle

GAINESVILLE, When the Duke and Florida women’s tennis teams met earlier this year in the finals ofthe National Indoor Championships, the Blue Devils came away with a 4-3 upset victory and their first USTA/ITA team title. The No. 2 Gators (31-2) got revenge for the loss Saturday in the semifinals of the NCAA Championships in Gainesville, Fla., beating No. 3 Duke (30-3) 4-1 and improving their overall record to 26-3 against the Blue Devils. “When I looked at the draw, the first thing I wanted to see was where Duke was,” said Florida head coach Roland Thornqvist, whose team went on to Fla.

I knew it was going to come down to the smallest little detail today. I’m really proud because halfway through the doubles it didn’t look very good.” Duke grabbed the first doubles match when its 14th-ranked duo of sophomore Kelly McCain and senior Hillary Adams defeated No. 53 Alexis Gordon and Julie Rotondi 8-5. McCain and Adams broke the hard-serving Gordon in the first and final games and improved their season record to 24-12. Florida quickly evened the score, as No. 26 Jennifer Magley and Zerene

Duke looks ahead, now supports ACC expansion By MIKE COREY The Chronicle

Duke University, originally one of two dissenters among the Atlantic Coast Conference against an expansion proposal, has now decided to support the league’s decision, according to President Nan Keohane. Following last Tuesday’s 7-2 vote which made the conference’s expansion from nine to 12 schools nearly inevitable, Duke decided to reevaluate its position. “We talked about our position going forward, and decided that instead of continuing to vote ‘no’ on every related topic, we would support [the decision] entering formal discussions with three schools,” Keohane wrote in an e-mail Wednesday morning. “We believe that doing so puts us in a better situation with our colleagues to work for what we believe in in the critical discussions that are now taking place about what the conference would look like if we expand.” As a result, all nine members voted Friday to formally invite three schools to join the ACC—the University ofMiami, Syracuse University and Boston College, each members of the Big East. Therefore, Duke will now focus on creating the best atmosphere it can for its teams and athletes. “Now we want to concentrate on making sure that the league does due diligence with the prospective new member schools, as our Bylaws require, and also work-

ing carefully to chart out what the divisions would look like, plan travel schedules that would minimize the time away from campus for student athletes, and try to preserve as much as much of the ACC spirit of rivalries in key sports, especially basketball, as we possibly can,” Keohane wrote. The ACC’s invitations were made one day before the beginning of a four-day meeting of Big East members, therefore forcing the conference and its president, Mike Tranghese, to clamor to save the league. However, no immediate answers came Tuesday at the

meeting’s conclusion. The consensus among Big East officials was that the future of the conference is hinging on Miami’s decision to stay in the conference or defect to the ACC, because it is clear that if Miami goes, Syracuse and Boston College will follow. Simultaneously, Duke and its fellow conference members waited intently, as they can only continue its expansion plans when Miami makes its final decision. Duke Athletic Director Joe Alieva wrote in an email Tuesday morning that he did not expect the process of expanding the ACC to last much longer, though there is “no set timetable” for the completion of the expansion. “We want to do what is best to keep the ACC strong and one of the best conferences in the coun-

Men’s golf qualifies for championships By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle

The men's golf team qualified for the NCAA Championships with its fifth place, 866 stroke finish at the NCAA East Regional held at the par-72, 7207-yard Auburn University Club in Auburn, Ala, last week. The Blue Devils were led by senior Leif Olson's 211 (71-70-70) stroke performance, the 12th best individual tally of the tournament. Olson, who is Duke's lone senior, had four birdies to offset his two bogeys in the final round Saturday May, 17th, to give him three consecutive sub-par rounds. Several other Blue Devils also proved clutch on the tournament's final round: Mike Castleforte scored a 71, Ryan Blaum and Tom Lefebvre each had a 73 and Nathan Smith shot a 79. Blaum's three day total was 218, Lefebvre finished with a 220, Castleforte had a 222 and Smith rounded out the team's scoring with a total of 232 strokes for the three round tournament. The NCAA Championships will be held atKarsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla., May 27-30. The fifth place finish was second to 1997's fourth place showing for the best performance in Duke men's golfhistory. The Blue Devils' trip to Oklahoma will mark its 13th appearance in the NCAA Championships, and its first since 1999.

The junior reached the round of 16, marking her best finish in the NCAA Singles Championship and earning her All-American honors for the third time in three seasons.

The hard finish in doubles carried over into the singles slate, as Duke fell behind early on several courts. The only Blue Devil who came out strong was No. 2 McCain, who cruised to a 6-2, 6-1 victory over No. 47 Scaringe, notching the team score to 1-1. But Florida quickly regained the lead when Magley beat Granson 6-2, 6-1 at the No. 6 slot. Then, at the No. 5 position, No. 69 Blaszak lost the first set to No. 14 Gordon, whose powerful serve bothered the Duke sophomore early in the match. “At the end of the first set I knew I was just going so fast and that I had to slow down,” Blaszak said. “I’ve never been someone who loses the first set and thinks I’m out. I started playing better and getting some returns on second serves, which is important with her.” The two hard-hitting players battled 105-degree oncourt temperatures during several long deuce games, with Gordon prevailing 6-2, 7-5. Shortly after Blaszak’s loss, Florida clinched the victory at the No. 3 slot, when Duke’s No. 60 Saras Arasu fell to No. 28 Lindsay Dawaf, 6-3, 6-2. The loss denied the Blue Devils a chance to play for their first-ever NCAA Championship.

defending national individual champion, led after day one by shooting even par. “I knew I came out here with goals and all I wanted to focus on, and [l] went out there, stuck to my goals and focused on my task at hand. The weather, everybody is facing the same conditions. So, I went out and stuck to my own game and that I think is the key.” Day two ended differently with Oui shooting a second round 79, pushing her into a tie for Bth, four strokes behind Oklahoma State sophomore Annie Thurman. “I started out all right,” Oui said. “I wasn’t hitting the ball exactly how I wanted to, so it was a little difficult trying to get up and down and with the wind continuing the blow hard, it got tiring. It was hard to keep it up when you’re not hitting it quite right how you usually do. With the wind, you have to battle the wind and for 18 holes, it was tough.” The Blue Devils will now look toward the next two days in hopes that the winds and subsequently the scores will go down. “We take full responsibility for the two days of playing golf not as quality golf we are able to play,” Brooks said. “We know that we’ve got it in us. There’s golf left.”

Dale Stahl, Humphries’ assistant coach in high school, told the Herald-Sun of Durham that he had received calls from 12 schools since the release was announced, including one from Minnesota. Kris and his father, William, did not return phone calls from the Chronicle Tuesday or Wednesday. Additionally, NCAA rules prohibit any member ofthe Duke coaching staff to comment on Humphries or the situation. The loss of Humphries puts a significant damper on Duke’s recruiting class, as the power forward was one of just two incoming scholarship players for the Blue Devils in 2003. A 230-pounder, Humphries is one of the top-10

recruits in 2003, as he averaged 25.5 points and 12 rebounds per game during his senior season. Duke’s lone scholarship freshman in 2003-04 then will be Luol Deng of the Blair Academy in New Jersey. He is ranked as the top high school player enrolling in college in the fall. Minnesota and Kansas were Humphries’ other top choices before making a verbal commitment to Duke in July of 2002. A statement from Kris’ father William, who played football for Minnesota, further hints that the hometown school may be the current front-runner. “Kris wants the opportunity to play closer to home,” he told the Pioneer Press Tuesday. However, Kris’ father was less specific in a phone interview with the Herald-Sun Tuesday. “There’s nothing going oh right now—it’s early,” he said. “We’re taking it one day at a time. I’m actually trying to corner Kris to figure out what the next step is. I just don’t know.”

quickly regained the lead when Magley beat Granson

6-2, 6-1 at the No. 6 slot. Then, at the No. 5 position, No. 69 Blaszak lost the first set to No. 14 Gordon, whose powerful serve bothered the Duke sophomore early in the match. “At the end of the first set I knew I was just going so fast and that I had to slow down,” Blaszak said. “I’ve never been someone who loses the first set and thinks I’m out. I started playing better and getting some returns on second serves, which is important with her.” The two hard-hitting players battled 105-degree oncourt temperatures during several long deuce games, with Gordon prevailing 6-2, 7-5. Shortly after Blaszak’s loss, Florida clinched the victory at the No. 3 slot, when Duke’s No. 60 Saras Arasu fell to No. 28 Lindsay Dawaf, 6-3, 6-2. The loss denied the Blue Devils a chance to play for their first-ever NCAA Championship.

defending national individual champion, led after day one by shooting even par. “I knew I came out here with goals and all I wanted to focus on, and [II went out there, stuck to my goals and focused on my task at hand. The weather, everybody is facing the same conditions. So, I went out and stuck to my own game and that I think is the key.” Day two ended differently with Oui shooting a second round 79, pushing her into a tie for Bth, four strokes behind Oklahoma State sophomore Annie Thurman. “I started out all right,” Oui said. “I wasn’t hitting the ball exactly how I wanted to, so it was a little difficult trying to get up and down and with the wind continuing the blow hard, it got tiring. It was hard to keep it up when you’re not hitting it quite right how you usually do. With the wind, you have to battle the wind and for 18 holes, it was tough.” The Blue Devils will now look toward the next two days in hopes that the winds and subsequently the scores will go down. “We take full responsibility for the two days of playing golf not as quality golf we are able to play,” Brooks said. “We know that we’ve got it in us. There’s golf left.”

The Chronicle Size matters for the ACC

Postcard BAGHDAD, Iraq I spent last week driving and flying around central Iraq. There are so many crosscurrents swirling here, the only way I can summarize them is with this post-

card home:

Addition of Miami, Syracuse and Thomas Friedman Boston College will make the ACC the Guest Commentary Biggest Surprise: How dirt-poor Saddam NCAA’s premier conference Hussein had made his own country—thanks to

the expansion ofthe Atlantic Coast Conference proceeds as planned, Miami, Syracuse and Boston College will accept invitations to join Duke and the eight other ACC schools to form the fourth “super-conference” in the nation. While the addition ofthree new schools would solidify the ACC’s place as a force in college athletics and increase revenue, expansion would threaten the survival of existing conference rivalries and non-major athletic conferences. Expansion would hold a mixed bag of effects for Duke. In financial terms, increasing the number of members from nine to 12 would make the ACC eligible for a score ofrevenue-increasing bonuses. Duke’s share of conference profits would increase from about $9 million to $12.5 million per year. This could have a tremendously positive impact on Duke athletes in non-revenue sports like women’s rowing and track, where a lack of funds has traditionally stunted success. In addition, Miami, Syracuse and Boston College would each bring specific strengths to the ACC, which would increase competition in the conference and make recruiting easier for Duke coaches. Each ofthese schools are formidable in football and basketball, and Syracuse is a traditional powerhouse in men’s and women’s lacrosse as well as men’s and women’s soccer. Unfortunately, expansion would have several negative effects. Increasing the number of teams would force the ACC to abandon its double round-robin regular season basketball format, which has ensured that all ACC teams play twice each year, once at each team’s home venue. This format is impossible with twelve teams, meaning that tenters in Krzyzewskiville may not get to see a Duke vs. Maryland game or a Duke vs. UNC game every year. Though often shifted to the background, several ACC coaches have acknowledged academic drawbacks to expansion. By extending the geographical region ofthe ACC from southern Florida to Boston, studentathletes will have to spend more time traveling longer distances, as opposed to spending that time studying in class. Despite these challenges, the attributes of the 12-member ACC are hard to ignore. By expanding, the ACC is all but guaranteed to be in the hunt for a national championship in almost every revenue and non-revenue sport every year, and will move into three of very lucrative television markets—Boston, Miami, and New York. The ACC will also gain additional revenue and prominence by being eligible to hold a conference championship football game, and gaining an automatic BCS bid. Expansion will draw the major money-makers, like Miami, away from non-major conferences like the Big East, penalizing small market teams. However, in order for the ACC to compete with other super-conferences such as the SEC and Big 12, expansion is a necessary step. A twelve member ACC will change the collegiate landscape tangibly, but will benefit Duke in the long run.

his wars with Iran and Kuwait, 10 years of sanctions and 30 years of tyranny. Outside the main cities, most of the houses people were living in appeared to be mud-brick huts, often with open sewers and no sidewalks. Many villages and towns here look like ancient Babylon with electricity poles. Many Iraqis appeared bedraggled. In short, Saddam had broken his people long before we ever arrived. It is no wonder that so many Iraqi soldiers just ripped off their uniforms and fled, and that much of the damage done to U.S. forces was done largely by Baath guerrillas. With all due respect to the U.S. military, and the brave men and women who fought here, this contest was surely one of the most unequal wars in the history of warfare. In socioeconomic terms, we were at war with the Flintstones. The Worst Thing About This Poverty: It produced the pervasive looting in the vacuum left behind by U.S. forces as they swept away the Iraqi army. That looting was like a swarm of locusts across the land. It was a spontaneous explosion of pent-up rage among Iraqis against a regime that had stolen everything from them. It was also fueled by a decade of sanctions and depravation that made many Iraqis desperate to grab anything—as evidenced by the bizarre collection of machine parts on sale in the Basra

looters’ market. The Best Thing About This Poverty: Iraqis are so beaten down that a vast majority clearly seem ready to give the Americans a chance to make this a better place. And, more important, it would take so little investment, and so little basic security, to improve the economy here and have an immediate impact on people’s lives. The peace is still very winnable, as long as we get things moving forward—which is why the Pentagon’s ineptitude in postwar planning is so frustrating. “We don’t want to see a situation where, by the Americans’ not delivering on the simple things, people will long for Saddam’s

day,” said Hoshyar Zebari, the Kurdish Democratic Party’s foreign minister. The Iraqi Political Factions With the Most Energy: The returning exiles. When I crossed the border to Kuwait, I was held up by a huge throng of Iraqi Shiites, waving green flags and pounding wildly on the roof of the car in front of me. It was bearing a returning Iraqi exile mullah from Iran. His boss, the most important Iraqi exile Shiite leader, Ayatollah Muhammad Bakr al-Hakim, had come back from 23 years of exile in Iran a day earlier to press for “Islamic democracy” in Iraq. I found a similar energy, without the religious fervor, visiting the Kurdish factions and aides of Iraqi National Congress exile leader Ahmad Chalabi, who all advocate secular democracy. The returning exiles are excited, they kndw how to play politics, and they’re meeting with delegations from around the country, laying out their respective visions and pressing the Americans to let them form an interim government. The Iraqis in the silent majority, by contrast, seem out ofit. They don’t know one another. They have not been allowed to have a horizontal conversation for decades. All they’ve had is a vertical—top-down—monologue. It will be interesting to see which of these exile groups, which have not really gone through the national trauma here, will be able to sink roots among Iraqis who have. In the near term, though, the exiles are likely to shape the future unless the United States has a plan to develop other Iraqi

leaders quickly. Most Important Statistic I Heard: Iraq is 60 percent Shiite. Of those 60 percent, maybe 30 percent would favor a Khomeini-like Islamic republic. That’s only 18 percent of the country. As such, two things seem clear: The next president of Iraq will be Shiite, and Iraq will not be Iran.

Knocking some sense into the Duke community

What we’ve got here is a failure to communicate, and like the first monkeys, we can start by pointing fingers.

Mike Miller Guest Commentary Debate at Duke and across the nation is scraping bottom, and this demands introspection. Now we all know that popular liberalism has become uninspired and downright

moronic. Mainstream conservatism is really much worse off, in many ways undergoing a suicide, to be replaced, zombie-fashion, by little more than naked antagonism. And naturally, it wants your brain. Duke provides a nice subject for understanding modern debate’s problems, and this column is aimed squarely at the university’s vocal right, as represented by the Duke Conservative Union and its publication, New Sense. I don’t want to spend time making fun of NS, which would be too easy. (Quick one-why do its covers look like they’re made of lint?) I’m more interested in the type of thinking DCU embodies. Besides, it’s past due to start confronting some of their ideas. Let’s start with DCU’s central problem. As I read through the last four issues of New Sense, I decided to take a little survey. For every article expressing an opinion, I noted whether the piece chiefly attacked something or argued for something. Now, out of the 59 such opinion articles in the last four issues, can you guess how many are predominantly negative? Incredibly, all 59! Every last one is a diatribe, on anything from the Literature Department to hip-hop music. This is not merely a credibility prob-

lem for DCU; it is a symptom of a open for constructive debate. What greater disease. DCU should do is admit that diversity, Pick up any copy of New Sense and etc., are obviously good things, but what cannot help but strike you is the Duke has the wrong approach towards unreasonable level of anger and deri- them-and present a better method. For sion towards anyone not fully in lockinstance, how should the University go step with, well, New Sense. At best, the about DCU’s goal of diversifying the tone and argument are just unsettling, politics of its professors-hiring edges but at worst, the magazine starts to for the right-of-center? sound (ironically) like a 1920’s Russian That’s a nice segue to a logical gap newspaper. Favored are words like from NS’ last issue. A number of “drivel,” “opprobrium” and “radical.” columns deride the creation of the The Chronicle becomes a “pernicious Gender Task Force, arguing that sexual bastion of politically correct palaver.” disparities are largely the results of Really? Pernicious? choice and that the administration aims The language is familiar because for special, not equal treatment. Yet you DCU members have learned it from could simply plug in "political view" for conservatives like Ann Coulter and Bill "gender" in these arguments, and end up Kristol. Problematically, this immature strongly at odds with NS’ politics. How attitude can only place a freezing effect exactly is DCU’s oft-stated goal of on rational discourse. I imagine this increasing political diversity any differraw anger that is so hypnotic to the ent from the task force’s goal for gender? reader must be doubly so for the writer, Tellingly, DCU entirely ignores any thereby resulting in NS lines like, “The calculus of student need-they never stop administration has opposed everything to wonder if students like or benefit from the DCU stands for, and would probadiversity programs, as it seems many do. bly destroy the group if it could.” How They claim the African American did Duke engender this opinion by Studies Department as a “sworn enemy,” generously funding DCU or almost but nowhere is this really completely ignoring it? explained-should the study of race in As to content, NS is plagued with America be completely ignored by Duke, incoherencies. Take two major points: or is the department just valued too First, “diversity,” “dialogue” and other highly? As a major university of the administrative lingo is “leftist drivel;” South, shouldn’t Duke have a strong second, this campus is overrun with AAS department? “leftist radicals” and we need to make A serious problem for NS, and all room for more conservative thought. highly slanted debate, is the way passion In other words, we need more gets in the way of facts, whether through diversity. Not to mention some carelessness or outright dishonesty. One healthy dialogue. unfortunate example is Matt Baldwin’s It’s crucial here to understand the article on the anti-war rally at the difference between recognizing the tooChapel, in which he strongly disparages frequent inanities of academic goals as The Chronicle’s coverage of the event. implemented, and the DCU’s reflexive He dramatically concludes, “The finscorn against the ends themselves. ished product featured in the next day’s Only the former posture leaves the door edition made another fact clear to me: -

Integrity was absent that day.” Baldwin backs this up with three complaints about the article: an overestimation of the crowd size, and the twin failures to cover the pro-war rally nearby and the pulling of fire alarms immediately prior to the rally. Let the first one stand as highly debatable. The other two, however, are outright blunders-both these facts are mentioned high up in the story and a pro-war protestor is even given a lengthy quote. People make mistakes, but apologies are due and a question lingers: Is it possible that Baldwin wrote a condemnation of the article without reading it first? Here’s my point; Philosophy advances through persistent challenge; we need thoughtful conservatism to come back and wrest liberalism from its malaise. Today’s salient political topics are being treated with dangerously little thought. Take the important question of whether the U.S., or any country, is justified in using military force solely for the purpose of freeing oppressed peoples. Many conservatives, like the anti’’nation building” Bush of 2000, would have wavered on this only a year ago, but have since migrated to a militant “Yes,” perhaps because they gambled on “Saddam Hussein in the broom closet with the anthrax” and needed to scrap. A more mature approach would recognize the question’s inherent unresolvability. Military intervention, like sex, is not always right and not always wrong-wise choices deal in nuance and consequence. As to actually answering the question, perhaps New Sense could give it a crack. I would be very interested in what they have to say.
