When two of higher education’s all stars sit down to chat, what do they talk about? For Frank Rhodes, president emeritus of Cornell University, and Duke’s soon-to-be-presidentemerita Nan Keohane, the hot topics ranged from the nature of the undergraduate experience to the challenges higher educa-

on tenure and Government Relations. The discussion focused on Keohane’s experiences at the University as her term ends, as Rhodes, who led Cornell from 1977 to 1995, asked questions gleaned in part from his own experience as the head of a major research university.

John Kerry rolled up big victories in delegate-rich Missouri, Arizona, Delaware and North Dakota to solidify his position as Democratic presidential front-runner. John Edwards countered by taking his native South Carolina in a dramatic seven-state contest Tuesday. Edwards and Wesley Clark were a few hundred votes apart in Oklahoma, with Kerry close behind in the tightest race of the night. It was a critical test for Edwards, who hoped to prove his presidential mettle outside the South, and Clark, who needed a win to stay in the hunt. Howard Dean earned no wins and perhaps no delegates, his candidacy in peril. Joe Lieberman was shut out, too, and dropped out of the race. “It’s a huge night,” Kerry told The Associated Press, even as rivals denied him a coveted sweep. Racking up a string of victories, Kerry dismissed Edwards’ singular win. “I compliment John Edwards, but I think you have to

run a national campaign, and I think that’s what we’ve shown tonight,” the four-term Massachusetts senator said. “You can’t cherry-pick the presidency.” An Associated Press analysis showed Kerry winning 65 pledged delegates, Edwards 43, Clark five and A1 Sharpton one, with 155 yet to be allocated.

Subway may Open-access journals debated come to East by Cindy Yee THE CHRONICLE

Seyward Darby THE CHRONICLE

Week after week, community members living and working on East Campus say they find themselves in an all-to-familiar dilemma: they are hungry, but there is nowhere they want to eat. Dissatisfied with the limited hours and dining options on East, students often choose to travel to West Campus, order from among the various Merchants on Points or even rely on vending machines for their meals. In response to this dissatisfaction, Duke Dining Services is investigating the possibility of putting a new food vendor on East Campus next fall. Currendy, the most likely option is a Subway kiosk located in Trinity Cafe, the upstairs lounge or the downstairs lobby of the East Campus Union —a project that Duke Dining Services Director Jim Wulforst said has been a long time in the making. “Three years ago, the original focus was to have Subway on East because first-year students wanted a good brand there to compliment Trinity Cafe,” Wulforst said. ‘We didn’t have the money to launch it there at the time, so we put it on West. But there’s a renewed interest in putting something on East.” SEE SUBWAY ON PAGE 6

year-long subscription to a scientific journal, get it forfree.

Sounds great, right? Open-access publishing has been championed by its chief advocates as a researcher’s best friend and a librarian’s saving grace. By creating online journals that do not charge subscription fees, open-access publishers say scientists can have unlimited access to information on new developments in their fields. Librarians, for their part, are saved the pressure journal their subscriptions put on crunched budgets. But there is, of course, a catch. In order to cover the journals’ production costs, open-access publishers are charging authors to put their articles in print a move some say would drain important grant money from many research projects. In addition, many non-profit scientific societies, which use revenues from theirjournals to pay for such things as infrastructural costs, travel grants and scholarships, say the open-access publishing model could hinder rather than further scientific progress. Although Duke administrators are wary of endorsing —

the open-access publishing movement, they agree that a drastic change is in order. “It is... time that publishers become in touch with their library market and realize that libraries will not continue to pay increasing costs,” said Patricia Thibodeau, associate dean for library services at the Medical Center. Virginia Gilbert, head of collection development for Perkins Library, said Duke’s libraries currently pay less than $lOO a year for some subscriptions, but more than $15,000 or $20,000 a year for others. This year, the Medical Center Library had to cancel 525 of its 1,753 subscriptions due to rising journal prices. The University announced recently that it is cancelling $400,000 worth of tities from scientific publishing giant Reed Elsevier, because Elsevier wanted a no-cancellations contract that could have left the University vulnerable to unbridled price increases. “The industry needs to rethink its cost structure and find more cost-effective way of delivering services and processing their publications,” Thibodeau said.

Ricin discovered in Capitol office by

Alan Fram

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A jittery Senate faced its second attack with a deadly toxin in 28 months Tuesday, this time in the form of ricin powder sent to Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist. Another letter containing ricin and bound for the White House was intercepted in November, a law enforcement official disclosed. No illnesses were reported in either case, but dozens of Senate workers were being monitored and work in the Senate slowed to a crawl. Health experts expressed optimism that casualties would be averted in the new attack. None of the dozens of con-

gressional employees who were near the Tennessee Republican’s office Monday when the white powder was discovered was believed to be sick. “As each minute ticks by, we are less and less concerned about the health effects,” said Dr. Julie Gerberding, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The ricin-laced letter addressed to the White House had been detected at an offsite mail processing facility, the law enforcement official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. The investigation into that letter continues, and there have been no arrests, the official said. Authorities deter-

mined the letter posed no threat to health because of the ricin’s low potency and granular form. On Capitol Hill, all three Senate office buildings were shut Tuesday and could be closed the rest of the week. That included the Dirksen Senate Office Building, where the substance was found Monday afternoon by a young worker in Frist’s fourth-floor mailroom. A sign stating “Closed” hung from one of Dirksen’s main doors. Yellow sheets cordoned off areas inside. The Capitol building—where heavy security has reigned since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001—was closed to tourists.

U.S., N. Korea to resume nuclear talks by

Christopher Marquis and Norimitsu Onishi NEW YORK TIMES NEWS SERVICE

WASHINGTON The United States and North Korea have agreed to resume six-party talks later this month over the North’s nuclear weapons program, the State Department said Tuesday. The negotiations, scheduled to start in Beijing on Feb. 25, are likely to focus on North Korea’s offer to suspend its nuclear programs in return for a security guarantee and other concessions from the United States. A first round of talks in August ended without an agreement, and a follow-up session in December was postponed. Both Washington and Pyonyang have insisted that the

other side make the first concession before talks could resume, officials say. It was unclear whether any concessions had been granted to get the talks restarted. State Department officials said Chinese diplomats had worked exhaustively to help them narrow their differences with North Korea. China, South Korea, Japan and Russia were enlisted as parties in the talks. Richard Armitage, the deputy secretary of state, discussed North Korea in meetings in China and Japan this week and James Kelly, the assistant secretary of state for East Asia, consulted with his counterparts in South Korea andjapan as well, officials said. Kelly is expected to lead the American delegation later this month.

Ezrahi discusses terror, liberties by

Virginia Russell THE CHRONICLE

Yaron Ezrahi, former senior fellow at the Israel Democracy Institute in Jerusalem and former White House advisor, spoke at the School ofLaw Tuesday afternoon about the effects of terrorism on civil liberties in both the United States and Israel. Ezrahi, currendy a political science professor at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, described how three months ago the faculty at his school sponsored a debate about local soldiers who refused to fight in the military. After a journalist publicized the debate, the cost of producing the event increased from $2OO to $1,500 due to security precautions. “It was impossible to believe at our university that some views would be more expensive to express than others,” he said. The native Israeli warned the dozen people in his audience that living in fear of terrorism can erode the democratic ideals of a society. “A public that is easy to scare is not likely to maintain democracy for a long time,” Ezrahi said. “If the U.S. is not like that, democracy might have a better future.” To demonstrate the effects of terrorism within his own country, Ezrahi recounted a story about a suicide bomber who worked at his university last year and was successful in bombing the school cafeteria. Since the event, the security within Hebrew University has tightened. ‘When I go to lecture my students, I go through at least three security checks,” he said. Ezrahi, who was previously a visiting professor at Duke, also discussed how an open-ended society should respond to terrorism. He challenged his audience to think about how a democratic society could defend itself against terrorism while demanding the security and freedoms of Western culture. His interest in the subject originated from the counterinPETER GEBHARD/THE CHRONICLE tuitive notion that a form of warfare with such limited resources could cause so much fear in a community.

Prerequisite system off to slow start by

Andrew Collins THE CHRONICLE

More than a year after its introduction, a system for electronically enforcing course prerequisites has been slow to catch on and occasionally fraught with complications. While the system has proved helpful for some courses, professors said its future uses may be limited. The system, developed by Student Information Systems and Services and applied through ACES, is the first foolproof way to enforce prerequisites. Only the departments of economics and psychology have adopted the system, which makes it impossible for students to register for courses unless they have certain prior coursework completed. This intransigence caused problems for one of the courses using the technology this spring, an introductory psychology course called Biological Bases ofBehavior (PSY9I).

Dean of Trinity College of Arts and Sciences Robert Thompson said difficulties arose when enrollment was blocked for students who were concurrently enrolled in the prerequisite courses. Also, he said, psychology professor Christina Williams wanted to grant some students exceptions to the prerequisites, but could not because the prerequisites are “hard coded” under the system and cannot be bypassed with a permission number. Finally, the system mistakenly denied Advanced Placement credit as a prerequisite for the course. Williams said she would probably not use the system for Biological Bases ofBehavior in the immediate future. “I guess that my current belief is that I’ve always allowed a fair number of students into [the course] based on what they would consider an appropriate course background,” said Williams, who is also chair of the department of psychological and brain sciences. “It’s called Biological Basis of Behavior and it therefore requires students to have a good feeling about biology. If they have that, then... I think it turns out to be easier to just let them into the class.” Martha Putallaz, director of undergraduate studies for psychology, said the prerequisite enforcement system has been successful for two other psychology courses, Comparative Psychology (PSYI2O) and Life Span AnalySEE

on her accomplishments at Duke, noting that “the student body is by any standard more diverse and more talented than ever before,” and commending the strides the University has made in international programs and the development of the undergraduate experience during her tenure. “We have really tried to make sure that the special quality of Duke’s undergraduate education is the same throughout this period, even as we try to make it better, and that does have a lot to do with the centrality of the residential experience,” Keohane said. “We’ve been really proud of the ways in which extracurricular activities for Duke students are almost overwhelming in their number and their variety.... Community service is a very important part of what we do, [and] we pride ourselves on our magnificent athletics, as well we should—but in the end of course, the core is in the classroom.” The forum’s title prompted Rhodes to turn the discussion toward the

SUBWAY from page 1 Wulforst, however, emphasized that while Subway is a strong option, student interest will play a large part in determining the type of vendor Dining Services chooses. ‘Trinity [Cafe] was created in response to student feedback, and that’s what we’re looking at now,” Wulforst said. “I think ARAMARK [Corp.] can bring Subway to East pretty easily, but I think we need to think just beyond having to duplicate things and keep focus on having unique, unusual concepts. The Duke University Student Dining Advisory Committee knows what’s kind of hip in the area, and they will make recommendations based on student feedback.” Students can submit ideas and feedback about vendors on the DUSDAC website.

Supreme Court’s recent decision about affirmative action admissions practices at the University of Michigan, where he acknowledged that current standards had become “embattled.” “We are very fortunate in the way the Court decided the issue,” Keohane said. “It’s always struck me as extremely odd that we might reach a situation when we would be allowed to take everything else in the world into account... but we could not take into account your racial background... in a country for which that has always been one of the most important divides and sources of tension and sources of opportunity.” Although Duke has not faced any direct challenges to its admissions process, Rhodes noted that the University has made a conscious effort to improve diversity on its own campus —but that diversity by the numbers does not automatically equal a truly integrated campus in every respect. “One of the most significant difficulties is how you walk the fine line between creating situations and creating contexts in which students are encouraged to venture

Kliksberg, however, said many students have already suggested to ECC what sort of new dining option they want. “People want fast, healthy food—that’s essentially it,” said Kliksberg, a freshman. “A Subway-like option would be fabulous.” Some students, however, do not like the concept of a kiosk-style, fast-food vendor. “I think there needs to be a place where you can sit down, like at a restaurant, and relax,” freshman Jenny Feldman said. “Part of eating is the dining experience.” Other students feel that Subway might offer too limited of a menu to appeal to a broad spectrum of students. “I think you need something that will fit a lot of people’s tastes,” freshman Megan Erickson said. “A cafe kind of place where there are a variety of options would be better. It would be really nice if there was something comparable to The Loop.”

into areas which you know will be educational for them, and allowing them to make their own way and find their own pathway,” Keohane said, agreeing with Rhodes’ assessment. ‘You also can’t say we are going to force you by some continuing unrelenting pressure to continually randomly divide yourselves up again.” Throughout the discussion, both Keohane and Rhodes were acutely aware of their stature at the top ofAmerican higher education leadership. John Burness, senior vice president for public affairs and government relations, called each the “outstanding American university president” of their respective eras, and audience members seemed duly impressed. Rhodes, who stepped down from the top position at Cornell nearly a decade ago, offered the most telling insight of the afternoon into what it means to be a president emeritus and no longer president of a major university as he commended Keohane and her legacy. “I think, President Keohane, that you will never leave Duke,” he said. “In a real sense you have changed the landscape.”

For some students, however, it is not so much the type of food as it is the hours of the new vendor’s operations that would matter. “Right now, there is no way to get dinner on Friday or Saturday nights,” freshman Tyler Green said. “Where are kids who don’t have cars supposed to eat? If [the University] is going to provide food the rest of the week, they need to do it on weekends, too.” Wulforst said that in addition to evaluating this sort of student interest and feedback during the investigative process, Dining Services will also assess the financial feasibility of each proposed vendor and ultimately choose “a concept that is right for East Campus.” According to students, Kliksberg said, this decision cannot come soon enough. “Students have been waiting, and are still waiting, for better quality food on East Campus.”

This referral guide lists the names of Duke students, Duke employees, their family members, and alumni who are available to provide child care and elder care. Schedules of availability are approximate, but each caregiver should be available for at least two hours during any listed time period. The names of references are listed with the name of the caregiver. ELDER CARE PROVIDERS are not trained to care for persons who have medical or other problems requiring specialized care. They can be asked to assist the elderly with daily tasks, read to him/her, or provide companionship. If you would like more information about the child care or elder care experience that a particular caregiver has had, please call Staff and Family Programs at 684-9040. Included in this directory is a separate listing of CAREGIVERS FOR SICK CHILD CARE AND FOR CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. The information contained in these sections follow the same guidelines as outlined above.

NOTICE

ADVERTISING OFFICE MANAGER Nalini Milne

Neither Duke University nor The Chronicle can warrant or recommend one particular caregiver or service over another. The decision to engage a caregiver must be made by the person seeking care after a prudent evaluation of the prospective caregiver. Likewise, the decision of a caregiver to offer his/her services must be made after prudent evaluation of the person seeking care. Duke University nor The Chronicle will be responsible for the care given by providers. Several caregivers have undergone a background check. Please call Staff and Family Programs at 684-9040 to see which caregivers have undergone a background check. No additional screening of caregivers has been conducted by Duke University or The Chronicle. The responsibility for screening rests solely and completely with caregivers and with those seeking care.

SICK CHILD CARE These caregivers are available for care of children who are mildly ill but do not need medical supervision. They can come to your home for an entire morning or afternoon if listed for AM or AFT, or for a full workday. These caregivers are not medically trained and will follow your instructions on care. Their rates vary from $2O to $4O or more per day. As always, the responsibility for screening lies with parents and caregivers. References for most of these babysitters are listed in the first part of this directory. Staff and Family Programs recommends that you meet the babysitter(s) before hiring her or him and discuss hours, fees, transportation, and your child's needs You cannot predict on what day your child might be sick, but you can use these babysitters for regular care and get to know them before you have an urgent need Non Students **

Doherty? Williams? No big deal Halfway through the ACC season, it is now clear that Roy Williams has not made much of a difference at North Carolina—yet. Exactly a year ago, North Carolina head coach Matt Doherty was on the hot seat after leading the Tar Heels to only two ACC wins. Twelve months later, UNC fans expected great improvement. The hated Doherty was replaced with superstar Roy Williams, analysts expected the freshman tandem of Raymond Felton and Rashad McCants to blossom into All-Americans as sophomores, and Sean May —whose foot injury a year ago was seen as the predominant reason for the Tar Heels’ inability to qualify for the NCAA tournament in back-to-back seasons—was BETSY MCDONALD/THE CHRONICLE

DUKE PUMMELS UNC Blue Devil wrestlers beat North Carolina for first time since 1972-73 season. by

MattBecker

THE CHRONICLE

CHAPEL HILL, N.C.

When one thinks of

Duke-North Carolina, one thinks of an intense rivalry, but in wrestling, the Tar Heels have dominated to the point that the matchup has held little importance. Until this year. For the first time since the 1972-73 season, the Duke wrestling team defeated North Carolina, the defending ACC champion, winning a closely-contested match 21-13. Tve been coaching these guys for (six years) and I’ve been telling my guys that we deserve to go with Carolina,” head coach Clar Anderson said. "And it’s finally taken root and they believe they can go with them. It’s always great to beat Carolina.” Senior Andy Soliman set the tone for the Blue Devils in the first match of the night at the 149pound weight class. With the bout tied at 4-4 late in the third period against Tar Heel Andrew Slack, Soliman scored a two-point takedown with just 35 seconds remaining to win 6-4, giving Duke a 3-0 team lead. “I knew it was a big match, and I came back [from injury] basically for this match,” Soliman • -

completely healthy. Despite all these changes, North Carolina has won exactly one more ACC game than it had after seven league contests in 2003. A Tar Heel fan could point to North Carolina’s quality wins this season, against the likes of

Connecticut, Illinois and Georgia Tech, to show UNC’s improvement from last year. But in 2002-03, the Tar Heels had even more impressive victories over programs like Kansas, Stanford, Connecticut, Maryland, Georgia Tech and even Duke. So with advancements made to North Carolina’s main weakness from a year ago —its youth, its health and its coaching—why haven’t the Tar Heels displayed the dominance they showed year-in and year-out in the Dean Smith era? The main answer is that it has never been completely clear that Roy Williams is a brilliant coach or that Matt Doherty is a horrendous skipper. Doherty was nationally recognized for upstarting a broken Notre Dame program in 2000, and had a solid season with solid talent in his first year with the Tar Heels in 2001, winning the AP National Coach of the Year award. Then the bottom fell out at North Carolina in the 2001-02 campaign, largely because of forces outside of his control. The Tar Heels lost arguably their three best players throuh early entries to both the NBA (Joseph Forte) and the NFL drafts (Ronald Curry and Julius Peppers played both sports at UNC), and were forced to play with a team led by two role players, Jason Capel and Kris Lang. With his first batch of big recruits still in their final year of high school, Doherty did not have much of a chance to prevent UNC from having its worst season ever. The next year Doherty led the team to big wins against the aforementioned clubs, but it is nearly impossible to win consistendy with freshmen, unless Carmelo Anthony is among them.

To Seminole country for No. 52 Paul Crowley THE CHRONICLE

26+ recruits to sign with Duke football today

For many college students, a road trip signifies piling into a van for a fun-filled journey which involves sleeping on someone’s futon and living hand to mouth for a few days. For the women’s basketball team, it means a four day itinerary which included Monday’s 78-60 dmbbing of Clemson and concludes today at Florida State (10-10, 3-6 in the ACC), as the No. 2 Blue Devils hope to continue their perfect ACC record against a tough Seminoles team. “We're on our way to Florida State, where we know it will be a batde” head coach Gail Goestenkors said. “They're always a great team, but especially good at home.” Duke might have to combat the Seminoles without one of its stars, as forward Iciss Tillis sustained a concussion against the Tigers Monday. Tillis will be a game-time decision, which could result in only her second missed game at Duke. The last time these two teams squared off, Duke’s Alana Beard led all scoring with 19 points, but the unranked Seminoles have proved to be a tough opponent this year, most recently when they gave No. 10 UNC a run for its money on Sunday before losing 66-60. The Seminoles are a balanced squad whose leader and leading scorer is senior Tasheika Allen, a 6-foot small forward who averages 14 points a contest. Providing support for Allen is freshman guard Shante Williams and junior post-woman Genesis Choice, averaging 10 and nine points per game, respectively.

Michael Mueller THE CHRONICLE

Vicki Krapohl looks to slow down the Seminoles with her speedy defense. “It's the kind of game that you look forward to,” FSU head coach Sue Semrau noted. “We're looking forward to being at home.” The Seminoles, despite being in the midst

of a four-game losing skid, is 6-4 at Tallahassee-Leon County Civic Center this year, and will certainly give a contest to the road-weary Blue Devils.

Despite some coaching turmoil, head football coach Ted Roof and the new staff have put together a solid recruiting class for next year. At least 23 high school seniors are expected to sign their national letters of intent for the Blue Devils tomorrow, and two more top recruits will decide between Duke and other schools tomorrow. The two uncommitted recruits are wide receiver Chancellor Young of Seattle, Wash., and defensive tackle Neil Brown of Buford, Ga. Young will make his decision between Duke, Oregon and UCLA, while Brown will choose from Auburn and the Blue Devils. No matter what they decide, however, Roofs first recruiting season as a head coach appears to have been a success. Before Roof was named interim head coach, the Blue Devils had only three commitments. 14 of the Blue Devils’ recruits have reported 40-yard dash times ofunder 4.5 seconds, highlighted by running back Ronnie Drummer, who ran a jaw-dropping 4.2 40yard dash at the Florida State football camp last summer. The Blue Devils landed six offensive linemen, including a pair of the Blue Devils’ highest profile recruiting victories. Maryland lineman Cameron Goldberg picked Duke over offers from California and Stanford, and Brooklyn, N.Y lineman Izzy Bauta snubbed Ohio State and Maryland to play for the Blue Devils.

UNC from page 9

WRESTLING from page 9

Conversely, Williams’ success at Kansas may not have been as impressive and more circumstantial than most believe. Before Kansas’ Final Four runs (years that did not produce national championships) over the last two seasons, Williams’ record in the NCAA tournament was far from exemplary. In 1997 and 1998, Kansas failed to advance past the Sweet 16 despite owning more talent than any team in the country (those Kansas teams featured first-team All-Americans Jacque Vaughn, Paul Pierce and Raef LaFrentz). After the 1997 season, it was not until 2001 that the Jayhawks would make it to the second weekend of the NCAA tournament again. Although Williams owned the highest winning percentage among active head coaches from 1989 through 2001, Kansas would only qualify for two Final Fours during that period. Williams’ ability to recruit talented players has never been questioned, but largely because ofhis intensely emotional coaching style, the Jayhawks rarely came through in the clutch. Similar problems are occurring this year with Williams’ coaching of Doherty’s recruits. Roy-Will, whose personality has always been susceptible to getting too high in good times and too low in bad times, has not ended what was North Carolina’s true problem from a year ago: inconsistency. While Williams did not recruit the short-benched 2004 UNC squad, the ex-Kansas coach deserves a large part of the blame for this teams’ troubles. The Tar Heels have a plethora ofMcDonald’s All-Americans and Williams has obviously not practiced the best substitution strategy, with UNC falling apart in second halves—even in some of the games they have won. While the talented starting lineup defeated thenNo. 1 UConn earlier this season, Williams’ erratic coaching style has traded these huge wins with embarrassing losses to teams like Clemson. North Carolina has the talent to beat Duke tomorrow, but until Williams learns to get consistency out of his players in big games, the Tar Heel-Blue Devil rivalry will not reach its considerable heights of the 80s and 90s. Robert Samuel is a Trinity junior and is the sports managing editor. His column appears weekly. To comment, please email the sports department at sports@lists.chronicle.duke.edu.

said. “It was big tonight because I’m a senior. I knew I had give it all out there in that last period.” North Carolina’s Ashton Bushwell defeated Scott Doerr at 157 to tie it up at 3-3, but Duke senior captain Michael Mitchell responded immediately, earning a major decision at 165 to put the Blue Devils back on top 7-3. “I really wanted to pin the guy, and I was trying to lock him up with a cradle but I didn’t get that,” Mitchell said. “The next alternative was a tech fall and I think I needed two more takedowns for that. My overall strategy was just to go out there and be aggressive and look for the bonus points.” Levi Craig won at 174, increasing Duke’s lead to 10-3. But a dramatic four-overtime victory by UNC’s Mark Canty at 184 sparked a Tar Heel run, as they won the next three bouts to pull ahead for the first time 13-10. But even this stretch of UNC wins was a small victory for the Blue Devils. Only one of the bouts was won by a four-point major decision, and the other two were decided by a three-point minor decision. “There was an awful lot of real close matches and we didn’t give up any extra points,” Anderson said. In the 125-pound match, Duke’s Christian Smith put an end to UNC’s spurt. Scoring a key takedown with just five seconds left in the first period, Smith held on for a 3-2 victory over Drew Forshey, tying the team score at 13-13. The Blue Devils’ Adam Benitez won by major decision at 133, and Daniel Schvartsman clinched the team victory in the final match, defeating Carolina’s Travis Sickle 17-6. Needless to say, it was a landmark victory for a Duke team that is trying to turn itself into a legitimate conference and possibly national contender. “I’m real excited for this team,” Anderson said. “It’s finally getting the confidence and the wins to hopefully make a tradition.” to

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Bush T-shirts were not offensive In no way did Students for Bush’s presence at the Duke-FSU game hijack the basketball team’s success. Rather, Students for Bush contributed to the spirit of the Cameron Crazies. Thirty students who do not normally stand in subfreezing temperatures among snow and ice did just that in order to obtain wrist bands for the game. Those same students wore Duke blue Tshirts and spent an entire night cheering for the Blue Devils. We chanted and screamed for Duke, not for a political party. Although some students held up Bush-Cheney signs, GO DUKE was printed across the top. Our T-shirts, while

intended to make a statement, did not infringe upon the rights of any other person in Cameron Indoor Stadium. Throughout this primary season, multiple Democratic candidates have enlisted supporters to participate in spontaneous activities in public locations. Why should a group of Republicans be chastised for their political activities? Duke students of all political persuasions should be lauded for their willingness to stand up for their beliefs. Sarah Hawkins Trinity ’O4 The author is president of Students for Bush

Sports, politics are tools for Kerry The “W” shirts of a few students apparent-

ly ruined the enjoyment of the FSU game, for some people. But it appears to be the principle of political sports expression they are objecting to.

I assume that Mark Pike and Melissa Latham have also dashed off angry letters to the Boston Bruins, who provided John Kerry with extensive free advertising by inviting him to skate in one of their practices. In fact, since Kerry actually got to play (he scored twice!), they must be much more upset. It’s not like Kerry or his supporters were in

the stands; these people used their media power as sports figure to advantage Kerry on the field of play itself. As I said, I’m sure that Pike and Latham objected strongly to Kerry’s craven (in their view) action. The alternative would lead me to believe that they are making a purely partisan point, and I would never expect such hypocrisy from Democrats. Michael Munger The author is the chair of the Department of Political Science

Editorial pages have become shameful Tal Hirshberg writes that this year “The Chronicle has been nothing short of gossip and social commentary.” He then proceeds to do what? Yes, write about how he could have wrote a provoking, abusurd commentary on Duke’s social sexual fascination, but somehow it didn’t clear censors. As a former columnist for three years, myself, I am personally ashamed at what The Chronicle editorial pages have become. I am so fatigued at flipping through to find yet another columnist obssessed with his or her, or his fellow students’ sex lives. Duke students aren’t all spoiled, sexcrazed white kids hungry to write about who is sleeping with whom. And yet, it is they whose opinions were chosen to represent the University.

That should stop, period. If hooking up really is all that’s important to those applying for a chance to speak to thousands of people... then stop printing student voices for awhile. Run blank pages, run ads, run extra crosswords for the kids bored in class. At some point the Duke community needs to feel real anger at having such a shallow stigma branded upon it. There are too many talented people at Duke with real stories to tell. I want to hear from them. Otherwise, I’d just as soon have silence Nick Christie Trinity ’O2 The author is a former Chronicle columnist and sports associate.

We want our girlfriends to be there when we cry our eyes out in the early, hungover, lonely light of morning, but the only reason we stick around for their hard times is either pity or obligation, or until our Seven jeans begin to suffoour tiny, anorexic waists. I refuse to believe that we really feel ‘Juicy” in couture; or that we’ve reduced the BC to our fashion runway. Whom are we dressing for? and, more importantly, drinking for?

I suggest the women of Duke take a good look around them, take a step down with me from their pedestal of black lace and stilettos, and ask the very pertinent question: Do I own myself at Duke, or does Duke own me? And if they answer yes to the latter question, I suggest they take out the Jack Rabbit and start realizing what it means to “own it.” Shadee Malaklou is a Trinity freshman Her column appears every other Wednesday.
