Economic upturn Meeting addresses party helps, hurts Duke by

With the national economy
showing signs of emerging from its recent funk, the University stands to gain—and, surprisingly enough, lose. On the positive side, an economic boom bodes well for employee wages and benefits, financial aid costs, charges on financial transactions, faculty growth, fundraising capabilities and the general mood at the University. However, a healthy economy is also associated with higher construction costs and, sometimes, rough sailing for graduate and professional admissions. Provost Peter Lange said a strong economy is important in shaping an optimistic and ambitious spirit at the University. “We’d like there to be an air of optimism. [2002-2003] was not a good year,” he said. “[A slumping economy] does reflect back on the University, because if everything’s going down, even if you’re going up, it’s hard to get things bubbly and positive. It’s a much less conducive atmosphere to
Good economic times helped shape a lofty and bold long-range document, Building on Excellence, which was drafted in 1999 and 2000 with the intention of outlining the University’s goals and priorities for the next five years. Buoyed by Duke’s rapid ascent to the upper echelon ofuniversities during the 1990s and perhaps encouraged by the rosy economic landscape, the plan calls for $720 million to be incrementally distributed. After several years ofrecession and money-losing budget cycles, however, Building on Excellence is now underfunded. Executive Vice President Tallman Trask estimated that the University has less than $5OO million in capital, and although he added that this is “a problem many people would love to have,” administrators are in part counting on a strong economy to bring the plan’s funding up to the original goal. Still, Duke has come out better off than some. The current fundraising effort, the Campaign for Duke, has largely met

With the score notched at 2-2 and less than two minutes remaining in regulation, Gracie Sorbello slammed a comer opportunity into the back of the net to catapult Duke over No. 5 Old Dominion (4-4) Sunday at Williams Field. The win represents the biggest victory for the No. 4 Blue Devils (5-1, 0-1 in the ACC) under first-year head coach Beth Bozman. The outcome also validates the team’s ranking and shows the country that the Blue Devils will be a championship contender this season. Yesterday’s victory is particularly special for the team because it avenges the squad’s 8-1 loss to the Monarch’s last year. “Oh my gosh,” Johanna Bischof said. “In the locker room before we started all we said was revenge from last year. It was embarrassing last year. This was one of the marquee teams we wanted to beat.” Sorbello’s finish off a comer was even more satisfying after the team failed to convert its first 18 opportunities of the game.

Assistant professor of literature Antonio Viego speaks at Sunday night's meeting about Sigma Chi's"Viva Mexico" party.
Field hockey upends No. 5 ODU by
At an open meeting held Sunday night to discuss the “Viva Mexico” party hosted by Sigma Chi fraternity Sept. 13, several students demanded an official apology from Sigma Chi and judicial action from the administration. In response to the party, which outraged many members of Duke’s Latino community, a draft of a list of demands was also presented at the meeting. Many students at the meeting expressed anger over the party which featured invitations designed to look like expired green cards and a “border control” station at the door—believing this warranted administrative action. Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta, one of several administrators at the meeting, rejected this notion early on in the meeting. “I understand this party was extremely hurtful,” Moneta said. “But is it a violation of our policy? It is not. This issue is about speech and expression, and we do not want to use judicial action to solve it.” When a student in the audience SEE DIALOGUE ON PAGE 10
Before the initiative: a history by Cindy Yee THE CHRONICLE
With the unveiling of the Women’s Initiative report set for tomorrow, a brief look into the history of women at the institution shows just how much things have changed since the seeds were sown for what would eventually become Duke University. In its first decades, the institution underwent a series of name changes—becoming Trinity College in 1859—but one thing remained the same; Degrees were awarded only to men, by men. After the Civil War, women were allowed to study as private pupils with Trinity College faculty members, but were not accepted as Chrissie Murphy fights for the ball in front ofOld Dominion's goal during Duke's 3-2 win Sunday.

NEW YORK Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz plunged into a bastion of antiwar liberalism—Greenwich Milage—Sunday to voice a vigorous defense of the White House’s Iraq policy. In an often raucous 90-minute forum at the New School University, Wolfowitz alternately chided the audience for not giving the administration enough credit for toppling Saddam Hussein’s brutal government and took pains to explain the rationale for the war and the costly, difficult future in rebuilding Iraq. “No one that I know of would ever
say that this war is cheap or easy,” he said. ‘The stakes here are enormous.” But Wolfowitz, considered by many to be the main intellectual architect of the Iraq war, was facing a tough crowd of 500 people, dominated by students, faculty and others who were clearly skeptical, if not outright hostile, to the American-led war in Iraq and its messy aftermath. “I think I’m glad to be here,” said Wolfowitz, a native New Yorker, after a cacophony of boos, hisses and applause greeted his introduction by Jeffrey Goldberg, a staff writer of the New Yorker magazine, the event’s sponsor.

WASHINGTON With a hurricane bearing down on the nation's capital late last week, Michael Powell, the embattled chair of the Federal Communications Commission, was in an expansive mood about the political storm that has engulfed him. In a wide-ranging telephone interview Thursday from his home in Northern Virginia, Powell mused inconclusively about how much longer he would be at the agency. Alternately frustrated, assertive and resigned, he acknowledged the sharp political skills of opponents who have waged a campaign to derail the new media ownership rules, which have

Coming Out Week kicks off by
Karen
Hauptman THE CHRONICLE
Shirtless and clad in glittery butterfly wings, Mr. Gay North Carolina waved to spectators along Main Street and in front of East Campus Saturday in the annual N.C. Pride parade. While N.C. Pride is not directly affiliated with the University, it kicked off this year’s Coming Out Week, presented by the Alliance of Queer Undergraduates At Duke and co-sponsored by the Mary Lou Williams Center for Black Culture and the Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Life. “This year is probably one of the most diverse weeks we’ve had since I’ve been here at Duke,” AQUADuke president Jessie Rosario said. ‘The dinner is usually the highlight, but this year we’ll also have [a] speaker addressing LGBT [issues] in the Muslim community and older events like the kiss-in, which I didn’t think was a big deal but which turned out to be a big deal last year. I guess we’ll just have to see what people come out to and what the turnout is like.” Events this week will include dinners, film presenta-
tions, discussion groups and a speech tided “In the Name of Allah: Muslim LGBT Community” by Faisal Alam, a new addition to the program. Rosario said she hopes this year’s Coming Out Week will have a more social tone than previous years have had. “In my reign as president, my biggest concern is that the organization has lost a lot of its social aspects,” she said. “I hope to create some safe social spaces for people [and] create dialogue like we’re going to on Tuesday. We want more people to come—straight people, gay people, if you’re out, in the closet—we want to spark dialogue, we want people to come and to have fun.” Saturday’s parade was definitely a social event, as members of the local and statewide communities converged upon East Campus. Over 100 groups marched in the parade and 120 vendors set up booths on the lawn in front of the East Duke Building. This is N.C. Pride’s 19thyear and the fourth year Duke has hosted the parade, which Volunteer Coordinator Sandy Janowski called a success. SEE COMING OUT WEEK ON PAGE 10
“Everything we do is fresh; we make our food everyday but these foods will come in frozen,” said Ben Pace, comanager for the Armadillo Grill. “We want to protect our image offresh food upstairs but we also want to serve products that there’s a demand for. It’s a win-win situation.” The recently-added items on the menu—chicken tenders with the option of various sauces, fried jalapeho poppers stuffed with cream cheese, Monterey jack fried cheese sticks, french fries, queso fries and wings—are a mix of different brands which include Tyson and McCain food products. “When people go to watch games [at the Armadillo Grill], the mind frame is toward an appetizer menu,” Pace said. “This menu should add to the sports bar image; it will be a good thing for us and for the students. We’re happy to provide an alternative to the menu upstairs.” Pace welcomes any suggestions for changes to the menu and hopes to add a few more items during the semester. Just as the bar represents a separate form of profit for the Armadillo Grill, the menu is independent of the type of food provided by the restaurant above the bar. Jim Wulforst, director of dining services, said he encouraged Pace and his partner, Creed Spriggs, to research other restaurants and see what was commonly successful. Pace said the idea for a bar menu was suggested some time ago. Wulforst had hoped to have the menu ready for the opening of the school year but the equipment used to make these foods—a self-contained fryer unit did not arrive until recently. “This new menu should add to the atmosphere and enhance the space,” Wulforst said. “Our goal is to make —

Today’s copyright laws are muddled and outdated, law professor James Boyle explained Friday in a speech titled
“We Don’t Provide That Service: The Economic Irrationality ofCopyright Rules on the Internet.” The lecture kicked off a five-part series about ‘The Information Ecology,” sponsored by the Center for the Study of Public Domain at Duke. Boyle, a cyberlaw and intellectual property expert, is one of the founders of Creative Commons, a non-profit organization that aims to increase access to shared information on the Internet. “While [information is] potentially available on the World Wide Web, no one knows what they can use,” Boyle said. “One solution is to go back to the old [copyright] rule. [That] is not possible, but a practical [option] is Creative Commons.” Confusion over how to use the Internet as a resource and how to give proper credit started long before the Recording Industry Association of America started suing people for downloading songs and movies illegally off the Internet, Boyle said. ‘The RIAA has made it so that people believe everything on the Web belongs to someone,” he said. Copyright laws for non-Internet media such as compact discs were fairly straightforward, but when the Web arrived, things changed, Boyle said. “Suddenly all those diaries, the picture of the Empire State Building, all of those

things that sat in a dusty sock drawer, could now be put on the World Wide Web,” he explained. Boyle reminded the audience that under old rules, copyright status could only be achieved if the author wrote ‘copyright’ on the document. “You express your desire for copyright,” he said. ‘Writing ‘copyright’ is not particularly onerous, most people can manage it.” Another aspect of the old laws is that if a copyright was not renewed, it would expire, whereas today a copyright exists by default, unless the author explicidy disclaims it. “Default rules are the rules you get when you don’t specify anything else.... Setting the default rule is very important,” Boyle said. The idea behind Creative Commons is to give authors an option beyond the defaultrule. Using the website, people can establish their own licenses, including details about when and where their products can be used and what type of credit must be attached, Boyle said. The founders of Creative Commons recognized in 2001 that current copyright laws were lacking in areas relating to the Internet and acted to fill the void. “[Creative Commons] is not meant to compete with copyright, but to complement it,” the website explains. The Creative Commons website generates a license in three ways, Boyle said. The first version expresses itself in away that a lawyer can understand it. The second expression is so that a layman can understand it and the third is SEE CREATIVE COMMONS ON PAGE 12

OIT adopts new spam Student computers filter for user e-mail vulnerable to hackers by
Meg Bourdillon THE CHRONICLE
Make Your INBOX Smaller TODAY!!! If headings like this one are a familiar sight in your e-mail inbox, then you may be familiar with unsolicited e-mails. Such messages can take many forms, from relatively harmless but irritating spam to destructive viruses. A Sept. 16 addition to the Office of Information Technology’s central filtering system, however, now makes it easier to keep spam out. The improvement permits each e-mail user to specify individual preferences for the handling of spam e-mails. Depending on a user’s settings, the University’s e-mail servers can sort or delete messages tagged as spam by filters. Although the option is available on Webmail, user-friendly controls will not arrive for several weeks, and OIT does not plan to disseminate information widely until it releases the October issue of its newsletter. Filters already check every message arriving at the University’s incoming mail server, whether the e-mail originated from Azerbaijan or the Allen Building. Although distinguishing between an important message and the advertisements that often flood inboxes is easy for e-mail users, for a computer, the task is more difficult. “There’s no real cut-and-dried way to define spam, and there’s no real cut-anddried way to detect spam,” said Robert Carter, director of systems architecture for OIT. Instead, the filters use hundreds
of pre-defined rules to predict the probability that a message is so-called “unsolicited commercial e-mail.” At Duke, the threshold for spam classification is high—the filter must consider it 80 percent probable —and the servers do not simply delete such e-mails without the recipients’ permission. Filters are used for identifying viruses as well as spam. If the filter detects a recognized virus, it either cleans the infected e-mail, quarantines the virus-containing part of the message or deletes the message entirely. Deletion occurs only if the e-mail contains no data apart from the virus itself. Despite these security measures, harmful programs can infect computers in other ways, and the Duke filters might not immediately recognize a new virus. “Even though we do virus testing on every inbound message... everybody needs to be running virus checking on their own machines,” said Carter. The heavily publicized attacks of Sobig.F, the most recent and most deadly of a series ofrelated “Sobig viruses,” coincidedwith students’ return to campus this fall and served as a reminder of the problems viruses can cause. Despite the threat, the University’s filters, which had been recently upgraded by OlT’s Systems and Core Services division, kept most campus computers safe. “We have full-time people whose jobs SEE SPAM FILTER ON PAGE 12

WOMEN from page 1 regular students.
It was not until the 1870s—when Mary, Persis and Theresa Giles expressed and were granted their wish to study at the college —that the school experienced its first hints of coeducation. The Giles sisters were taught independently until their senioryear, when Braxton Craven —the institution’s president from 1842 to 1882—allowed them to attend his regular lectures on metaphysics. In the spring of 1878, the Giles sisters became the first women to receive undergraduate degrees from Trinity College, each earning a Bachelor of Arts. The first real thrust for coeducation came in 1896 when Washington Duke offered Trinity College $lOO,OOO toward its endowment, under the condition that it “open its doors to women, placing them in the future on an equal footing with men.” Although President John Kilgo preferred a separate coordinate college for women, he went ahead with Duke’s plan, enrolling a small number of women in 1897 who would live in the college’s first women’s dormitory, the Mary Duke Building. When William Few succeeded Kilgo as president in 1910, however, he revitalized the idea of a separate coordinate school for women and began work on what would soon become the Woman’s College. In 1924—a year in which 245 of Trinity College’s 980 graduates were women —Duke University was founded with Trinity College as the new university’s undergraduate college for men. Few chose Alice Baldwin to be the dean of women and to help realize his vision of the separate-but-equal Woman’s College. As planning progressed, Baldwin—herself a product of coeducation—proved to be a champion of equal educational opportunities for women, even over Few’s greater concern with the academic separation of the sexes. In fact, although Baldwin wanted to increase the number of women faculty members at the university, she wanted even more to ensure that women students were on equal footing with the men, even if it dictated a shared and possibly male-dominated faculty with Trinity College. Few himself proved committed to the advancement of women’s educational opportunities, striving with the Women’s College for recognition by the American Association of University Women—an association that held schools to such standards as equal treatment for women faculty members in terms of promotion and pay and a requirement that a dean for women students be a regular member of the faculty. In 1924,Baldwin—a regular member of the history faculty —suggested that the AAUW might be impressed by a special committee on the instruction of women. Few followed Baldwin’s suggestion, further proposing that the new council be looked upon as the Woman’s College’s nucleus and that women faculty members attend the council’s meetings instead of the regular meetings of Trinity College faculty. Baldwin, however, counseled that women faculty view themselves as a part of the whole institution and urged eli-
gible women to attend the regular Trinity College faculty meetings—a significant step toward the educational equality of the Woman’s College. The Council for the Education of Women instead served as a guardian for women’s academic equality. The Woman’s College opened in 1930—the same year Rose Davis, Trinity College T6, became the first woman to receive a doctoral degree from Duke. Also that year, three out of 30 students entering the Medical School were women—one of whom later recalled that women students were treated well by the faculty but that some of the male students and house staff were not so welcoming. Women entering the Law School at that time also faced difficulties in a male-dominated course of study: A 1939 report stated that out of 17 women who had attended Duke Law since 1930, nine withdrew before earning their degrees. Still, women at the Woman’s College seemed to be flourishing, even through the Great Depression, which many feminists considered a recession for women’s rights. The school received more applications each year from highly qualified candidates and boasted a better academic track record than it’s male counterpart. Despite the success of the undergraduates at the Women’s College, Baldwin still saw room for improvement. Always a staunch supporter of a stronger women faculty, she had gained little ground in increasing the number of women on the faculty, in particular in the higher ranks. Although there were a number of distinguished women faculty members such as Hertha Sponer in physics and Katherine Gilbert in philosophy, the women faculty was small throughout Baldwin’s term as dean. Only 6 percent of fulltime faculty in arts and sciences in 1930 were women; 10 years later, women faculty had increased only to 9 percent. Women in the faculty did make some gains, however, following Baldwin’s persistent arguments on their behalf. Although salary raises through the Great Depression were scarce for all faculty, Baldwin continued to insist that women faculty with national and internationalreputations as scholars were deserving of a raise. Out of the few faculty members who received the maximum raises for the 1940-1941 academic year, several were women, and four of the 12 persons promoted that year were women. When Baldwin retired in 1947, she was succeeded by a highly qualified candidate, Florence Brinkley. Over the next decade-and-a-half, however, the college’s autonomy gradually eroded. When many of the women students themselves began to attack the separate-but-equal arrangement in the 19605, it was only a matter of time before the Woman’s College was absorbed into Trinity College in 1972. Since then, women at the University have continued to gain ground. In 1983, the Women’s Studies Program was established. In 1989, the Women’s Center came into being.

too familiar for the team. The Blue Devils (4-8)
received a cold reception at this weekend’s Gamecock Invitational, falling in three tightly contested matches to Santa Clara, George Washington and host South Carolina. “Our team has a mixture of older and younger players, and we’re still trying to find the right chemistry,” Duke head coach Jolene Nagel said. “Right now we need to work on communication, both verbal and nonverbal, to try to eliminate errors in our game.” Duke began its weekend Friday morning against struggling 17thranked Santa Clara, a team on the losing end of three straight matches entering the weekend’s tournament. The Broncos eked out a tight 33-31 victory in the first game, but the Blue Devils rebounded, winning the second game 30-24. The momentum shifted in the Bronco’s favor from that point on, as Santa Clara capitalized on Duke’s errors to take games three and four, 3023 and 30-22, respectively. “We see just how well we can perform, but then we watch as we hurt ourselves with errors. We had seventeen service errors in that one match. We need to try to eliminate that,” Nagel noted. Duke looked to turn things around that evening as the team matched up against South Carolina ln the first game, which saw 15 tie scores and 10 lead changes, the Gamecocks prevailed, winning 30-28. South Carolina cruised through game two, in which Duke posted only eight kills, en route to a 30-23 victory. The Blue Devils battled back from a six-point deficit in game three only to lose the game and match in heartbreaking fashion, 30-28.
close-shaves, losses for volleyball
‘Those two 30-28 losses are difficult,” Nagel said. ’There are important times in the match where it is critical we minimize our errors, and we weren’t able to do so.” The Blue Devils hoped a good night’s sleep would help them Saturday as they went up against the George Washington Colonials (10-2). Duke dominated the first two games, out-hitting a Colonial team that posted negative attack percentages in both games, as Duke cruised to victory in convincing fashion 30-21, 30-17. The Blue Devils squandered an opportunity to win the match in game three, falling 31-29 against a determined Colonials team. “We were loose, confident and communicating well against George Washington, but they began to make adjustments,” Nagel said. “They served a little tougher, and we got a little tight.” George Washington rebounded from an early deficit in game four to win 30-21, forcing a fifth and deciding game. Once again, the Blue Devils emerged on the losing end of the score, falling 17-15 in yet another close match. The weekend was not without its bright spots, as senior Krista Dill—fresh off her I,oooth career kill last weekend —posted a personal-best 12 blocks, her first double-double of the season, and notched a spot on the alltournament team.
The Blue Devils will once again be on the road next weekend, as they open up conference play against the Maryland Terrapins Friday and the Virginia Cavaliers Saturday. “The team has been forced to play a very competitive schedule,” Nagel said. “It is not easy what we’re going through, yet we remain optimistic. We are developing more as a team, going through a period of soul searching, and we are better because ofit. This is ultimately going to help us compete in the ACC.”

Jesse Shuger-Colvin CHRONICLE THE
In a season in which the Blue Devils are expecting to reach new heights, they hurt themselves this weekend by making old mistakes. Northwestern’s running backs rushed for nearly 300 yards and three touchdowns, and Duke (2-2) failed to convert on many of its scoring chances, as the visiting Wildcats (2-2) beat the Blue Devils 28-10 in Wallace Wade Stadium Saturday afternoon. A Blue Devil win would have given the team a three-game winning streak—the program’s first since 1994—but Duke could not overcome Northwestern’s strong start and finish of the game or, more importantly, its own mistakes. “I think the whole team knew that this was a game that we could have won, and we should have won, and we didn’t,” Duke receiver Ronnie Elliot said. “It was

half-empty I didn’t want to have to write this I’d love to be feigning excitement over the football team’s prospects this season, and making bold claims that after victories over two weak football teams, the Blue Devils were ready to take on Florida State and the world. I’d love to be gearing up my bandwagon, unfolding maps to New Orleans and telling the Blue Devil faithful that there’s still plenty of room available for the trip to the Sugar Bowl. I’d love to be pledging my allegiance to the head coach, Steve Spurrier reincarnated, who would lead us to the promised land. But it ain’t gonna happen, folks; if you’d like to maintain some sort of deluded optimism, put on your ear muffs. After coasting through the two happiest weeks in recent Duke football history, the wheels came off against Northwestern. In case anyone got too carried away by the victories over Western Carolina and Rice, Saturday’s loss reminded us that Wallace Wade hadn’t magically turned into the Big House, and the Blue Devils’ helmets still read Duke and not Miami or Oklahoma. While Carl Franks would have you believe otherwise, this wasn’t just another loss; this was an old fashioned butt-whooping at the hands of a team that finished 39 and in the cellar of the Big Ten last year. The defense missed tackles left and right, and made an art form out of allowing

After falling behind 14-0 for the second time in as many weeks, the Blue Devils tightened up their defense and began

Schneider with 1:43 left in the half. The hosts continued their push in the third quarter, forcing Northwestern into a punting situation on the Wildcats’ first possession. Duke freshman Derek Bryant blocked the ensuing punt, creating favorable field position for the Blue Devils. Duke’s offense was unable to capitalize, though, going three and out. “We could not score any points offensively,” Duke head coach Carl Franks said. “We had some opportunities; it should have been about 28-28.

It just was not meant to be for the women’s soccer team this past Sunday, as it lost a close game to a very athletic and strong UCLA team. Playing host to 3rd-ranked UCLA as part of the 2003 Duke adidas Women’s Soccer Classic, the 9th-ranked Duke women squandered the few opportunities they had, losing 2-1. The Blue Devils (5-2-1) got off to a slow start and played much of the first half at the Bruins’ tempo. “We were tentative, we didn’t come out and attack,” Duke head coach Robbie Church said. It was apparent as they fell behind early 1-0 when UCLA sophomore Iris Mora floated a ball over goalkeeper Thora Helgadottir’s head. “I’m not really sure what happened,” Helgadottir said. “She seemed to just get all the time she wanted.” The goal was a wake-up call for the Blue Devils, when on the ensuing possession Casey McCluskey took the ball past the UCLA defense and pushed her shot just wide left. It was the best scoring opportunity Duke had in the first half, as the Bruins’ All-American defender Nandi Pryce would not allow the Blue Devil offense to muster any sort of attack. Midway through the second half, the Duke team finally broke through the UCLA defense on a beautifully placed ball UCLA Duke

“It was a great team ball,” said Lauren Tippets, who scored the goal. “All I had to do was put it in.” It appeared as if-the momentum was- fh nally shifting in Duke’s favor wheft just three minutes later Stephanie Kron sent a corner sailing across the middle. After deflecting off a couple of players, all Lindsay Greco had to do was tap the ball in for the game winner.

“In soccer the most dangerous time is the five minutes after you score,” McCluskey said Against the Bruins, this could not have been more true as UCLA capitalized on these chances, “It is always difficult to maintain intensity after you score,” McCluskey said. ‘You get complacent.” After an exciting win over Richmond 40 Friday night in the first game of the tournament, Duke had trouble maintaining any type of momentum against the Bruins,
Helgadottir attributed the team’s difficulties to not setting its own tempo early.

‘We didn’t come out as hard as we have in the past and that is why we started chasing them,” Helgadottir said. ‘We’re not the kind of team that chases. We want to be chased.” While Sunday’s match ended in defeat, the overall mood of the weekend was a
positive one.
“We’re a little disappointed because we knew we could play with them,” Tippets said. “But it did give us confidence that we can really play with any team in the nation.”
Top-ranked Terrapins fight by
Gabe Githens
THE CHRONICLE
The victory ship Jeft port three Duke ■weeks ago, and the men’s soccer team (2-4-1, 0-1 in the ACC) got pushed off board. After three consecutive 2-1 losses and a tie at Campell last Wednesday, the Blue Devils once again came up short Sunday at Koskinen Stadium with a 2-0 loss to No. 1 Maryland (7-0, 2-0). “Opportunities are hard to come by in these ACC games,” senior Matt Ahumada said. “They’re a quality squad, they came in and worked hard. They put away their chances and that’s the way it goes.” The Terrapins’ first opportunity came after midfielder Scott Buete lost the ball to Duke defenders and fell forward into the penalty area. The referee whistled for a foul just outside the box even though Duke head coach John Rennie thought Buete had purposely fallen to receive a penalty. On the ensuing free kick, Maryland was able to jump on the board in the 37th minute when Abe Thompson rifled a shot left of the wall into the upper-90 portion of the goal for a 1-0 lead. ‘The first goal they scored on a free kick, which in my opinion, was just a dive,” Rennie said. “It should have been called for a yellow card against the Maryland player. That’s how they play and it took the ref-

Light blue was all the women’s soccer could see yesterday afternoon—up, down, all around. Whether it was tracking one of the many balls up in the air against the muggy azure sky, or trying to manage a header against almost six feet of cerulean-dad UCLA Bruins, or being enclosed by even more of those blue jerseys at once time, Duke could see everything but themselves. The Bruins’ hulking bodies and rough style dictated an unfamiliar tempo —a West-coast offense, one might say—for the Blue Devils, who fell behind early in responding to all the balls UCLA put in the air and couldn’t return to the trademark Duke game of speed on the ground until they’d already been upended, 2-1. “That’s a very athletic team,” Duke head coach Robbie Church said. “Along with [North] Carolina, they’re as good athletically as you’re going to find in the country. And they’re good in the air, and they do what they do really well, and that’s putting the ball in the air. We’re not good in the air. They play bigger and stronger.” Much of the game took place in the midfield, where beleaguered battles for possession and scoring chances went on for minutes at a time. UCLA’s first-team All-American sweeper, 5-foot-10 Nandi Pryce, stopped multiple Duke opportunities before they could even get started, while the Bruins used some crafty footwork of their own to get to Blue Devil goalie Thora Helgadottir and out-shoot Duke 13 to seven —and seven to three in the all-important first half.

finally figured it out they couldn’t get away with it anymore but they had two goals.”
Just a minute into the game the Blue Devils had a golden opportunity to net a goal. Duke forward Jordan Gila found himself with a breakaway on the left side of the penalty box and deftly maneuvered around Maryland goalkeeper Noah Palmer. Instead of shooting on a partially empty net, Gila opted to pass the ball to fellow forward Nigi Adogwa but a Maryland defender jumped in front and intercepted the pass. ‘We missed a great opportunity early when Jordan beat the keeper and he couldn’t get a shot off,” Rennie said. Throughout the physical match on Sunday, the Blue Devils took control at times but were unable to finish their chances. Maryland counterattacked toward the end of the first half and used Thompson as its lone forward. This tactic paid off, as Thompson sent a spiraling cross direcdy to the head of teammate Domenic Mediate, who finished the goal to the near-side of the net in the 29th minute. After another frustrating loss, Duke does not have any time to rest. The Blue Devils travel to Chapel Hill Wednesday for a matchup with their rival Tar Heels before heading home for a Saturday game against Harvard.

Walter cruises until falling in semis Bad timing for by
In its first event of the year, the men’s tennis team traveled to Georgia last weekend to play in the South-
ern Intercollegiate Tournament, a competition that includes 24 teams and over 140 players. Duke sent seven players to compete in the event, six of whom advanced to the third round. Among the outstanding performances, sophomore Ludovic Walter advanced to the semifinals in the top A flight singles bracket. He lost the semifinal match in three sets to the top-seeded and second-ranked player in the nation, Bo Hodge of Georgia. “Ludovic is definitely establishing himself as one of the top guys in collegiate men’s tennis,” Duke head coach Jay Lapidus said. “Its exciting to see his progress.” In the first singles bracket, Jonathan Stokke advanced to the fourth round, where he lost to the third seed, Vanderbilt’s Matt Lockin. Also starting the season on a strong note were freshman Peter Rodrigues and sophomore Christopher Brown, both of whom reached the quarterfinals in their respective B flight singles, matches. Brown soundly defeated Birgir Soiland of Stetson, 6-3, 6-0, before losing to Georgia Tech’s Trevor McLeod yesterday morning. Rodrigues, in his first collegiate tournament, took on and subsequently beat Florent Girod of Mississippi State, but fell to Frederik Aarum of Mississippi. Ryan Heinberg, who earned a pair of three-set victories Friday, was defeated by Armstrong Atlantic State’s Roger Thiele in the third round.

The men’s golf team experienced lots of bad luck this weekend, so perhaps it is fitting that the Blue Devils finished 13th at the Inverness Invitational, a collegiate golf tournament held at the Inverness Club in Toledo, Oh. Duke shared the unlucky finish with Northwestern, logging 316-306-302=924 for the three-round, two-day tournament. The only team below the Blue Devils was Notre Dame, who tallied an abysmal 934. UCLA won the team title with a scanty 886, beating runner-up Kansas State by 10 strokes. Bruins star John Merrick won the individual title with a 71-74-71=216
performance. “The shortcomings this weekend were hard to pinpoint,” Duke senior Mike Castleforte said. “It just worked , out that everyone played badly at the same time.” Castieforte’s play was the closest thing to a bright spot for the ill-starred Duke squad. The Ohio native shot a 7873-74 to tie for thirteenth overall. Sophomore Ryan Blaum cooled off on Saturday after a competent 73-76 Friday, shooting a 227 over three rounds. Nate Smith, Alex Wilson and David French shot 235, 239 and 243, respectively. The tournament started out badly for coach Rod Myers’ squad, with the vestiges of Hurricane Isabel causing 20 mph winds on the course. The Blue Devils were in 12th after two rounds Friday. “Obviously our main goal coming in was to win,” Castleforte said. “But after the way we began, with that horrendous start, we were just trying to move up.” Duke was unable to do so. Despite perfect weather on Saturday, the Blue Devils dropped a spot and finished well below their initial hopes. One reason for the drop on Saturday was Blaum’s 78, which dropped him from ninth to 24th in the individual

In the doubles flight, eighth-seeded Brown and Heinberg play in the semifinals today. With its strong performance at the tournament last weekend, the team
looks forward to another successful season. Duke, who currendy holds the ACC tide and was ranked ninth at the end oflast year, hopes these tournaments will give greater experience to its players in order to continue the tradition. “I was really pleased with the level of play this weekend,” Lapidus said. “I think the guys have made a lot of improvements over the summer and I’m very optimistic thus far.”

Shaun Livingston, a 6-foot-7 guard from Peoria, 111., visited Duke officially this weekend with his father and grandfather and walked away impressed. “It was real nice,” the prized point guard told The Chronicle Sunday night. “I liked the scenery.... I had some pretty good talks with Coach K[rzyzewski] and the assistant coaches; we got to spend some time with them.” Livingston spoke of “a vision” that Krzyzewski had for him. “He felt that I could be a special player,” the gifted floor general said. “[Coach Krzyzewski said] I had a lot of raw talents that I hadn’t developed yet, that I hadn’t played up to my ability yet.” Livingston, who left campus Sunday morning, took in the many sights and sounds ofDuke over the weekend, including the 28-10 football loss to Northwestern and a pickup game with the men’s basketball team. “It was nice,” the talented guard said of the pickup game. “I played okay; I felt I could’ve played better.” Livingston did, however, mention current Blue Devils with whom he enjoyed playing and who made his visit more comfortable. “I felt really comfortable playing with Luol [Deng]; he’s really versatile and easy to play with,” Livingston said. “Daniel Ewing... I liked his game; I think he’s a bet-
player than he gives himself credit for.” Livingston also mentioned spending some time with point guard Sean Dockery and that he enjoyed the company of all the current Blue Devils. “All the players were pretty cool,” Livingston said. “I got to hang out with them; they made me feel pretty comfortable.” Versatile and athletic, Livingston averaged nearly a triple-double lastyear in leading his Peoria Central (Illinois) team to a 31-1 record and the state championship. Considered the top non-center prospect in the class of2004, Livingston is expected to choose between Duke, North Carolina, Arizona and Illinois. But he does not anticipate making an immediate decision; rather, he intends to visit all four schools before announcing his collegiate plans. Additionally, Livingston has maintained interest in North Carolina during the past few months despite its crowded scholarship situation. “I talked with Coach [Roy] Williams and I got a pretty good idea of where he sat with me,” the talented floor general said. “I’m pretty confident [a scholarship] would be there for me.” Including verbal commitments, North Carolina is at the NCAA-mandated limit of 13 scholarship players for next season. Were Livingston to commit to North Carolina, one current player would have to be released from his scholarship. ter

third-and-long conversions. The offense seemed to sustain drives only when Northwestern was gracious enough to hand it 15 yards on personal fouls, and came away with a grand total of three points on two critical third-quarter drives that started inside the Northwestern 40 yard line after a blocked punt and a fumble recovery. “They had a lot more than we had today,” Franks said. ‘We didn’t play the way we were capable of playing. We missed way too many tackles, and way too many opportunities offensively. It should have been about 28 to 28.” The third quarter was a microcosm of the game. Somehow, after being pretty soundly beaten for most of the first half, and with less “excitement on the sidelines than I would have liked,” according to Franks—how a team gunning for its first three-game winning streak since Britney Spears was 13 years old fails to come out with some passion at home, I don’tknow—the Blue Devils rallied for a touchdown right before halftime, and entered the break with a little trailing only 14-7. On the first possession of the second half, the Blue Devils forced the momentum
Wildcats to punt —and then blocked the punt, taking over at the Northwestern 36 yard line. With the crowd getting into the game for the first time, and a huge opportunity to erase first-half mistakes and even the score, here’s what Duke’s offense was able to muster: on first down, quarterback Mike Schneider was sacked for a five-yard loss; on second down, Chris Douglas ran for no gain; and on third down, Schneider’s pass to Khary Sharpe fell incomplete. On a possession that started a first down or two away from the red zone, the Blue Devil offense went backwards, and couldn’t even manage three points. Northwestern, however wasn’t through trying to hand the game to the Blue Devils. Right after getting the ball back following Duke’s abort-
Ed drive, Wildcat receiver Ashton Aikens caught a 20-yard pass on third and fourteen, but fumbled. Once again, the Blue Devils sent their offense onto the field already in Northwestern territory; and once again, Duke’s offense stalled. A 16yard pass to Reggie Love gave the Blue Devils a first down at the Wildcat 21, but on third and six, Schneider fell down while dropping back to pass. Fortunately for Duke, an ingenious Wildcat defender Jumped on Schneider as he lay on the ground, resulting in a 13-yard roughing the passer penalty and a Duke first down. Handed yet another brilliant chance to tie the game, Schneider tossed three incomplete passes and Duke settled for a field goal. So after Northwestern surrendered a blocked punt, a fumble, and one of the dumbest penalties college football has ever seen, Duke emerged with a grand total of three points. “We really need to put more points on the board,” Schneider said. “I’ll take responsibility for that. I mean, three points, we really need touchdowns in there. We can’t settle for field goals. We needed at least 10 points out of those two chances.” If Duke can’t put points on the board against a mediocre Northwestern defense, and if it can’t tackle against the less-than-imposing Wildcat offense, what hope do the Blue Devils have now that the remainder of their schedule looms with Florida State instead of Western Carolina, and Tennessee rather than Rice? “It’s going to be hard [to bounce back],” sophomore wideout Ronnie Elliott said. “But as a team, we’ve been through so much adversity that this is just another speed bump that we’re going to have to go through.” Elliott wasn’t the only Duke player to characterize Duke’s loss as a “speed bump”. But unfortunately for the Blue Devils, the road doesn’t get any smoother in the next eight weeks. And if Duke can’t navigate Northwestern, with Florida State and the rest of the ACC looming on the horizon, the future doesn’t look nearly as bright as it did just one week ago.

SOCCER from page 5 ting in and UCLA on a roll, Duke made a sorely-needed switch to a more offensive formation and started pushing a bit harder in the midfield. And almost as soon as Church substituted speedster Carolyn Riggs and point person Gwendolyn Oxenham into the game in the 66th minute, the Blue Devils were racing around with crisp passes, playing their game—“shorter balls, quicker balls, faster balls, balls to our feet,” as Church desired. Duke’s lone goal was definitive of this young, swift team’s style, with Riggs sending a touch pass to a charging Casey McCluskey, who swept to the right of two defenders and crossed the ball to freshman Lauren Tippets, who just had to tap in a goal after MeCluskey’s and Riggs’ tap dancing to set it up. But by the time UCLA rumbled down the other end of the field to force in a quirky goal, the Blue Devils slipped into panic mode, running circles around the Bruins but also around themselves, playing closer to their potential but with no semblance of organization—just of confusion and an overdose of that pale, almost Carolina, blue.

rushes for the most yards usually wins the game between these two teams, and they certainly did that today.” The Blue Devils regained possession of the ball just two minutes later after their defense forced Northwestern wide receiver Ashton Aikens to fumble at the Wildcats’ 39-yard line. Duke looked to be stymied once more after going three and out, but a Northwestern lineman jumped on Schneider after the whisde, giving the Wildcats a roughing the passer penalty and the Blue Devils 13 yards and a new set of downs. The Duke offense stalled, though, and had to setde for a 26-yard Brent Garber field goal, which cut Northwestern’s lead to 14-10. “I would have hoped that we could’ve gone and scored after we blocked the punt and after we forced the turnover on the fumble,” Franks said. “I certainly thought that we would’ve been able to tie the score up at 14-all, but we just didn’t have that opportunity.” After the tri-fecta, the Blue Devils would not score again. Northwestern kept the ball on the ground and kept Duke’s offense off the field.
Randy Walker said. According to Franks, the fatigue led
to poor tackling by Duke. “We had to use a lot of guys on the defensive line to rest a couple of our guys,” Franks said. “We didn’t play the way were capable of playing....We missed way too many tackles and way too many opportunities offensively.” Duke’s Schneider finished with 130 yards with one touchdown on 12-of-24 passing while Northwestern’s Basanez was 15-of-23for 177 yards. Schneider left the game after getting tackled in the open field on a scramble late in the game. He would have returned if the game’s outcome was still in doubt, the red-shirt freshmen said following the loss. With five seconds left and his team down 2810, Franks called a timeout with the Blue Devils deep into Northwestern’s territory in order to get his squad one last scoring chance. This did not sit well with the Wildcats, especially their defense. ‘We did not want them to score, so we were going to do whatever we had to stop them. That is why we called a blitz on the play,” said Wildcat defensive coordinator Greg Colby.

Larry Burk, MD Dr. Burk is a musculoskeletal radiologist who received his acupuncture training in 1998 at the UCLA Course for Physicians. He is a member of the Trinity College Class of 1977, and he has been the Director of Education for the Duke Center for Integrative Medicine (DCIM) since 1998. He has practiced acupuncture at Duke in the Pain Clinic, Sports Medicine Clinic, DCIM Clinic and the Diet and Fitness Center. In 2002 he was trained in Contemporary Electro-Acupuncture for Upper Extremity Sports Injuries at McMaster University in Ontario and did an acupuncture internship at the Victoria Pain Clinic in British Columbia with Dr. Michael Greenwood.
ancient Chinese method of healing involves the use of small needles to treat a variety of conditions including back and neck pain, arm and leg pain, and headaches thought to balance the flow of energy (qi) through channels (meridians) in the body research shows it can activate the release of the body’s natural pain relievers (endorphins) during musculoskeletal treatments, improvements are often reported in other medical conditions as a side benefit of acupuncture
One-hour treatments are usually performed once a week requiring 4-6 sessions Between 6 and 10 needles are used in most sessions which sometimes include the use of mild electrical stimulation
Acupuncture is a safe technique which has very few side effects and can often assist in reducing the need for medication
Dr. Burk is interested in working with students who are willing to
collaborate in exploring a mind-body-spirit approach to musculoskeletal pain which addresses core issues of healing and self-empowerment.He combines imagery, breathwork, and music with acupuncture during hour-long sessions tailored to each student’s particular needs. He includes instruction in the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) which involves self-tapping on the acupuncture meridians and can be applied to anxiety as well as pain. He also provides an introduction to Qi Gong exercises which combine breathing and movement.

ECONOMY from page 1 expectations despite the downturn. “We’ve done remarkably well through this recession in terms of the campaign,” Lange said. Other universities, by contrast, have suffered both in terms of fundraising and in trying to avoid huge budget deficits. Given that Duke’s $2.7 billion endowment is substantially smaller than that of peer schools like Harvard University, Princeton University and Stanford University, it is less dependent on endowment income for revenue and therefore can weather slow economic times better than others. Stanford Provost John Etchemendy announced last February that all staff and faculty wages would be frozen this year to address his university’s shortfall. “We’ve actually done pretty well compared to some other places,” said Trask, half-joking, “because we’re brilliant and we’re lucky.” Lewis Siegel, dean of the graduate school and vice provost for graduate education, said graduate applications tend to decline during a booming economy. By contrast, during the recession of the past few years, he said, “They went up like a skyrocket.” This year’s crop of new doctoral candidates numbered 400 for the third straight year, a barrier that was seldom if ever broken during the 19905, and Siegel said applications were up 15 to 20 percent. For the first time in Duke’s history, it was able to fill a graduate class accepting less than 20 percent of applicants. The other aspect of the University that could suffer in an economic recovery could be construction, as costs for it and other capital investments may rise along with interest rates. With dozens of projects underway at Duke, the extremely low interest rates—sometimes under 1 percent, Trask said—from which the University has benefited could be a distant memory. On balance, however, a boom time is hard to refuse. Trask noted wryly, “In general, I prefer the ‘up’ economy to the ‘down’ economy.”

dent groups. A list of demands was circulated at the meeting by Mi Gente co-president Sara Hudson, who organized the meeting independent of Mi Gente, and said that a group of students had asked her to pass it out. The demands, which remain a work in progress, call for Sigma Chi to apologize to the Duke community with full-page ads in The Chronicle and The Daily Dialogue by Friday, Sept. 26. Sigma Chi president Marc Mattioli, one of several members of the fraternity at the meeting, said that his organization would consider the proposal. “I’m more than willing to pay the money for an ad,” Mattioli said at the meeting. “But I think it’d be better spent on programming Mattioli also said that he had already written a letter to the editor in The Chronicle apologizing for the party, and that he hoped that his fraternity’s future actions would demonstrate the sincerity of his apology. However, other students at the meeting questioned what good an apology would do, and instead called for broader measures to address minority issues in general. Hudson echoed these sentiments by saying Duke needs more than just a dialogue. “We had short-term solutions ten years ago, now we need something written down,” Hudson said, referring to a request made in October 1994 by Mi Gente that the name of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and Pi Beta Phi sorority’s annual “South of the Border” mixer be ”

Some of the other written demands were discussed, including the formation of an Ethnic Studies program at Duke as well as an increase in both the hiring of minority faculty and the recruitment of minority students. Several students at the meeting also called for more educa-
tional programs related to diversity, which could be included in freshmen orientation. While no clear solutions were reached at the meeting, Hudson asked everyone in attendance to write their name and e-mail down on a piece of paper so that they could continue the dialogue through an e-mail list serv. Hudson said she would also use the e-mail list to form a subcommittee that would revise the list of demands and formally present them to the administration. There is also a demonstration tomorrow planned for 11:30 a.m.
HACKERS from page 6 receiver can intercept the data, and current methods of encryption are easy to break on a wireless network the size of Duke’s campus, he added. There are creative solutions and protections against hackers, including SITAR, a multi-layered protective computing defense, developed in part by Kishor Trivedi, Hudson professor of electrical and computer engineering. SITAR, which stands for scalable, intrusion-tolerant architecture for distributed services, functions by separating protected computer systems and the public domain with computers that screen incoming requests for access. ‘The idea is to try to continue system operation in the face of attacks that might be occurring,” Trivedi explained. “It is very similar to fault-tolerant computing in that it tries to maintain the system, perhaps with degraded performance.” Many other area universities are involved in cybersecurity research efforts as well. North Carolina State University has a Cyber Defense Lab, and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte attracts students seeking to study cybersecurity through the Federal Cyber Corps
scholarship program.
Even with advances, none involved in the research is
willing to describe current cybersecurity measures as invulnerable to attack. “Programs can always make it hard for the attacker to cause damage, but you can never have a particularly secure system, particularly because new threats keep developing,” Trivedi said.

FIELD HOCKEY from page, “We had 19 corners, you think after a while they are going to go in,” Bozman said. “When our timing is down, it is almost impossible to stop, and they were looking for options. We had been trying to work the ball around and look for options so we thought they weren’t expecting a straight shot.” The go-ahead goal by the Blue Devils came less than three minutes after the Monarchs tied the score at 2-2. With Duke holding a narrow lead at 2-1, the team sat back a little on defense, but Old Dominion answered with its most prolific offensive flurry of the game. “It is difficult mentally to be in this position where you see your first huge win for the program and go play not to lose, and we did a little bit, and they were able to tie the score because of it,” Bozman said. And after a number of missed opportunities, including a misplayed breakaway, the Monarchs finally connected when the ball dribbled parallel to the goal line and Old Dominion’s Katie Claxton tapped it into the right side of the goal. “I thought the ball was out and it slipped under my arms, so I probably should have had it, but a win is a win,” goalie Christy Morgan said. Coming into halftime, Duke was down a goal after the Monarchs scored in the opening minutes of the game, but the Blue Devils tied the game just 35 seconds into the second period. They took the restart down the field, and Bischof crossed the ball to Chrissie Murphy, who tallied her sixth goal of the season. From there, the Blue Devils continued to
have opportunities to score, but missed the net on several such chances. With 15 minutes remaining in the game, Bischof dribbled the ball down the left-center portion of the field, moved to the center and shot from the top of the circle. The ball eluded a number of Monarch defenders and frozen goalkeeper Tina Walker to give Duke a
2-1 advantage.
“We knew that the way they were dropping defensively,” Bozman said. ‘They were dropping into a circle and really trying to front our attack players, so we thought they were opening up
space at the top of the circle and trying to get our midfielders to carry a little bit and hit the shots, and [Bischof] just followed instructions.” Things did not go as smoothly for the Blue Devils offensively in the first half. In the first 35 minutes, Duke had 14 penalty comers, but did not find the net on a single such chance. “I think there were a lot of missed opportunities, and I think we could have won some 50-50 balls in the beginning,” Bozman said. “But getting over the first big game—make no mistake—beating Old Dominion is a huge win for this program, so getting over that first one is always a difficult task and it makes the next one easier.” The win, especially with the close nature of the game and the dramatic finish, represents a major hurdle crossed for this program which is looking to break into the upper echelon ofcollegiate field hockey. “We are not used to being as good as we are this year,” Bischof said. “A big part of it is mentally beating the big teams. This is our first really big win so I feel like it is just going to get a lot easier from after this.” Jesse Colvin contributed to this story.
WOLFOWITZ from page 2 pleading with the audience to give the administration a break on Iraq. “How much worse can it be than in the last 20 years?” he asked. For Wolfowitz, a former political science professor, the forum was an opportunity to explain his thinking on the war and its impact on stability jn the Middle East and on security in the United States since the Sept. 11 attacks, aides said. Much of discussion had the feel of a Wolfowitz 101 sem-

The United States waged war for three reasons, he said: The concern over Iraq’s drive to obtain chemical, biological and nuclear weapons; Iraq’s connections to terrorism; and Saddam’s reign of terror that Wolfowit/ said was responsible for perhaps a million Iraqi deaths. “It was a human rights nightmare,” he said, emphasizing a reason that was not a principal one the administration articulated before the war, but has become so since. When pressed by Goldberg and audience members, some of these Justifications seemed less certain. “Iraq did

Only about 20 ofaround 20,000 computers on campus became infected. Not every university had as much success. The increase in e-mail traffic caused by Sobig.F resulted in a mess at the University ofNorth Carolina-Chapel Hill. “We had mail very backed up for a while,” lamented Jean Smythe, director for computing policy at UNC. “Other people with other mail couldn’t connect [to the e-mail servers]....

CREATIVE COMMONS from page 4 so that a machine can understand it. Currently between 750,000 and 1 million people use Creative Commons. Boyle said some Massachusetts Institute of Technology faculty put their classes online, and now, anyone around the world can take an MIT class just not receive an MIT degree. To some audience members, the website’s licensing capabilities are an important measure to address outdated copyright laws. “I think the Creative Commons is generally a great idea.... I didn’t know as much about [copyright laws] before the 80s,” said Kristina Troost, adjunct assistant professor of history. —

Letters to the Editor Lack of ethnic dialogue a problem
STAFF EDITORIAL
In Bridget Newman’s column in the Sept. 17 edition of The Chronicle, the characteriza-
Ban on closed parties a myth
tion of “the border control” as thugs, rapists and murderers is very out ofline. Immigration and Naturalization Services (“the border control”) is an important law enforcement agency of the United States. The members of this organization certainly are not thugs, rapists or murderers. She feels that it is inappropriate to imply “that all Latinos are undocumented immigrants,” but has no qualms flat-out stating that officials of the United States Government routinely injure, rape and murder people crossing the border between the United States and Mexico. Sigma Chi has been insensitive to Mexicans. It is also important to note that Sigma Chi had no intention to denigrate Mexican culture. Newman’s claim that the student body’s attendance at the party signaled their acceptance of the theme is false. Students do not find ffat parties acceptable based on themes; they find ffat parties acceptable based on the amount of alcohol available. The ad-
In
last Friday’s staff editorial, published Sept. 19, 2003, The Chronicle fell victim to a common myth surrounding University policy —that on-campus parties must be open to all students. In fact, no such rule prohibiting closed social gatherings exists. As stipulated in the University Alcohol Policy, “Duke University recognizes the value of group-sponsored social events. Groups are permitted to hold open or closed (by invitation only, through the use of guest lists) social events.” The Chronicle regrets the error, and we hope that our mistake will help to dispel this misconception in the minds of other members of the student body. In light of this proper understanding of University policy, The Chronicle’s recommendations remain very similar to those in last Friday’s editorial. Selective organizations should exercise their judgement in striking a balance between open and closed events, as both types have benefits and detriments associated with them. Open parties are an integral component of many students’ social lives, and an important part of community interaction on campus. Open parties allow unaffiliated students to participate in the party culture without having to join selective organizations themselves, in addition to facilitating interaction between individuals who might not gather together otherwise. Open parties contribute greatly to the University’s commitment to community building and desegregation on West Campus. Further, Duke’s much-heralded second semester rush process is supported in large part by open parties. First-year students are free to attend any party on West, and can get to know a wide range of selective groups before making decisions concerning where to rush. If closed parties took precedence, the current rush format would be placed in jeopardy. It is also necessary to highlight the unique benefits offered by occasional closed or guest-listed events. First, student safety is easier to monitor due to the fact that the host group is aware of the approximate number of people in attendance. This allows for easier identification of individuals who are in danger of becoming ill, or have become ill. The distribution of alcohol would also be easier to police, because fewer unknown guests would enter the party simply to obtain alcohol and then leave. Also, hosts would ideally be distributing drinks to individuals they know, rather than to strangers. Current University policy leaves the choice to hold open or closed events up to the discretion of the host organizations themselves. Ideally, these groups will strike a balance between open and closed events in the future, choosing the most appropriate format for their situations.

ministration in their position as racism police should have been aware of the cultural anguish that such things as expired green cards cause, and they should never have let the theme go forward. The administration of fraternities and sororities needs to be more representative of the diverse views on campus to prevent this from happening in the future. But attacking the themes offrat parties does not further Duke toward the elimination of racism. Opening a discussion between fraternities and sororities of different ethnic groups would be a better route to solving the problem of racism. Ms. Newman’s reductio od absurdum, calling for a fraternity party theme of “Everybody’s All White,” widens the chasm between members of different ethnicities. I would challenge Ms. Newman to use her words to provide a solution to the self-segregation of ethnic groups instead of merely crying about the racist themes used by campus organizations.

Student, employee safety neglected In my experience as a graduate student at Duke, the administration has usually been reluctant to cancel classes in the face of threatened weather. While this reluctance is often justified (forecast snow rarely materializes), administration officials acted irresponsibly in the face of Hurricane Isabel’s danger. As The Chronicle reported, the Provost decided at 2 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 18 to cancel classes that started after 3 p.m. This was too late and out of step with surrounding businesses and schools. The University of North Carolina system campuses decided earlier in the day to close at 2 p.m., local school systems did not open or they closed early and a number of businesses shut their doors early. In addition, the announcements implementing the severe weather policy and canceling classes were poorly disseminated. A number of graduate students I spoke with that evening and Friday were not even aware
that Duke had canceled classes—they instead chose to guard their own safety by going home early. Neither did the administration seem to take into account the faculty or staffs difficulties in traveling later that day. In fact, they managed to force many workers to go home during the most intense part of the storm. Even students who lived on campus were at obvious risk: West and East campuses were both littered with fallen limbs and flying, stinging debris and any of this could have easily hurt campus pedestrians. The administration should take much more care in guarding the safety of its students, faculty and staff, and worry about instructional time later. I hope they will review what went wrong in this situation and implement better guidelines to prevent such irresponsible behavior. Ben Dalton Graduate student, Sociology
AQUA Duke and the DCU exchange views On Sept. 17,1 had the opportunity to dine at the Center for Race Relations and engage
in dinner and a dialogue between AQUA Duke and the Duke Conservative Union. The roots of this evening were planted in the Chronicle column written two weeks ago by Nathan Carlton, president of DCU. We were able to engage in a thoughtful, intelligent exchange, bringing out ill notions and misconceptions we had about one another. DCU was able to cast away suspicions of a conspiracy against the LGBT community to repress or endanger them. The AQUA Duke members present listened to and engaged the opinions DCU members held about the LGBT community. Ambiguous terminology, such as homophobic, was defined. The attendees realized they had more in common than previously thought. Just as many LGBT members are in the closet, there was an in the closet DCU member in attendance fearing association with DCU may
lead to repercussions in a job search. Overall, the evening was a success in my opinion and in the opinions of most of the attendees. The two politically extremist groups were able to get together and peacefully display their differences and at least come to a greater understanding of the other side. I don’t think that minds were changed across the board (remember; these are politically extremist groups) but tolerance and acceptance for the LGBT community was evident in most of the DCU members and respect and acceptance for the conservative view was just as evident with most of the AQUA Duke. Both of these were contrary to what may have been expected. I commend the Center for Race Relations for organizing and sponsoring the event and hope that we will be fortunate enough to have more discussions in the future. Kevin Cullen Trinity ’O7

MONPAY> SEPTEMBER 22. 2Q03
Casting off Your Inhibitions In
his landmark 1956 study, anthropologist Horace Miner examined the body rituals of the Nacirema, a people embarrassed by their their physical selves and their physical functions, including any emotions they might reveal. Although the Nacirema live in a thriving economy, to which they devote as much time as possible, they still lack validation in themselves—some even believe that parents bewitch their own children.
MEGHAN VALERIO Amazed by some of their rituals, such as systematic tooth-gouging and the practice of women baking their
hair in small ovens, Miner concluded that the Nacirema were a magic-ridden people, and wondered that they could have existed so long under their self-imposed burdens. From his own perch in civilization, he could cluck at their silliness. If you haven’t gotten it yet, “Nacirema” is “American” spelled backwards. The joke behind “Body Ritual of the Nacirema” becomes apparent quickly; Miner does, after all, describe our original culture warrior, Notgnihsaw, as a hero renowned for throwing wampum over the Pa-To-Mac and chopping a cherry tree to release the Spirit of Truth. Pretty obvious stuff. But what gave the game away without a doubt were Miner’s descriptions of how the Nacirema feel shame and embarrassment about their bodies, and the lengths to which they’ll go to hide said bodies. He notes that the ideal form is something outside the realm of nature. This was 1956. What a long way we have come! At Duke, I have friends who purposely starve and friends who consciously binge and friends who make jokes about their borderline anorexia. The jokes get me the most, not because they disturb me, but because they make me laugh. They’re smart comments, off-thecuff banter that betrays their intelligence. They know something’s wrong—but they’ve submitted. But even my friends who don’t starve/binge/make jokes about their borderline anorexia, the ones who make efforts to be healthy, still don’t believe in their bodies. How many people diet/bulk up, or (more
often) say they’re going to diet/bulk up, before Myrtle? How many people hide and insult themselves every chance they get? Except for last week. Isabel blew through Duke leaving not a wake of shattered windows and overturned cars but outdoor showers and a slip ‘n slide on the quad. It’s raining—let’s take half our clothes off and run around in it! What is it about nature that shatters our inhibitions? Last year during the ice storm we saw the same thing; as the weather attacked, we had a winter carnival on the quad. The last time I’d seen so many people outside was for last day of classes. We tried to find a justification for this phenomenon in my cultural anthropology class—the same one for which I read about the “Nacirema.” After class, I decided to continue as a good little anthropologist, and do some research out in the field (or, you know, the quad. Whatever). MV: So, what’d you do Thursday afternoon? (Random Student): Yeah, we washed our hair on the quad. It was awesome! MV: What made you think to do that? RS: What? MV: I mean, why don’t you do that every day? RS: Um, it doesn’t rain every day. All right, so I lack interview skills. But the students I talked to, an admittedly small and biased sample, all had a similar attitude towards celebrating in the rain: why not? Why not roll around in the mud when we’re supposed to stay clean, or get wet when we build walls to keep us dry, or perform normally private ablution rituals outdoors? Why, in the winter, throw ice chunks at each other and laugh when we get hit? Why did I get four e-mails with the subject line “HURRICANE PARTY! immediately after Provost Peter Lange cancelled classes? Why do we choose to celebrate the weather only when it hits the extreme? And why is it only when we hit that extreme that we can lose inhibitions with ourselves, stripping down and rolling around the dirt as if it were totally natural?
I don’t really wonder about these questions; I wonder more that we don’t act like this every day. My freshman year, when Duke basketball beat Maryland in the Final Four, I raced to West and joined in an epic mud fight, finding gunk behind my knees three days later. It was fun. Why couldn’t we slide in wet dirt every time it rained? Would it be because of the stares, or our own discomfort? As for me, I wasn’t out on the slip ’n slide last week. Nor did I wash my hair in the rain. I did, however, spend the evening with a group of girls making plaster casts of our torsos (if you’ve ever wanted to cast off your inhibitions, slathering yourself with Vaseline and having someone rub plaster strips on your body isn’t a bad way to start). As we looked at the drying molds, a few people commented on how beautiful they all were, representing different women with different backgrounds and body types, but also representing the female form. Looking at the cast of my own body, I agreed almost inspite of myself. I might pick at my flaws in the flesh, ignoring affirmations from family and friends, but that night I looked at my body, literally, from the outside. It took leaving it to like it.

UNCLE EBENEZER and DJ RIDDLE Rock You Like a Hurricane
Writing
the Monday, Monday column certainly has its perks. During these past few weeks UNCLE EBENEZER and DJ RIDDLE have made some close friends in the administration, so we get pounds from Nan when we pass her in the Allen Building and Tallman Trask lets us call
him T-dawg.
UNCLE EBENEZER and DJ RIDDLE
Thus, after classes were canceled last Thursday at 3:00 p.m., it was no surprise that Larry Moneta called us up at 3:01 p.m. inviting us to the Hurricane Party he was throwing at his house with all the gang. We figured that in the worst case we’d at least get to see Dean Willimon shotgun a Busch Light, so we jumped in our cars and headed to L-Mo’s humble abode off of East. We arrived just as Nan and Coach K were rolling up in their blue and white Lamborghinis. We were a little thrown off by Nan’s “I took it up the tailpipe from Duke Parking Services” bumper sticker. Apparently no one likes those guys. As her husband Bob got out of the trunk with two large grocery bags, she looked at Coach K and smiled, “We cleaned all three Durham BPs out of Hurricane brand 405.” At the same time,
Wojo climbed
out of Coach K’s trunk and put on his party monitor t-shirt. The Scorpion’s “Rock You Like a Hurricane” was already blasting in the house as UNCLE EBENEZER and DJ RIDDLE each grabbed a 40 and followed Nan up the front walk. Christoph Guttentag was manning the door dressed as a border patrol guard. As he checked to make sure that we were all on the guest list, he continually bragged that this was the most talented and diverse party that LrMo had ever thrown. Inside we were greeted by the sound of quarters clinking on the coffee table and Deb Loßiondo running by with a tap for the keg. Carl Franks had just won two games of quarters in a row and was boasting that he would shave his moustache if he won a third. Unfortunately, he was beaten by the guy who swipes Duke Cards at Wilson Gym. As we wandered to the back room, we found Reynolds Price playing NBA Live 2K3 against Wojo. Price took an early lead despite the fact that Wojo had added to the Celtics a seven-foot-tall custom player, conspicuously named ‘Steve W’ Things continued to go downhill for Wojo, but after a halftime chat with Coach K he began to lead with the heart and took the game into overtime. Will Willimon peeked his head in the room just long enough to call them all losers before heading to the backyard for the keg. Not wanting to be branded a loser by our new friends, UNCLE EBENEZER and DJ RIDDLE headed outdoors to fill
up our drinks.
