When Rubenstein Hall was formally dedicated Friday afternoon, the future of the Sanford Institute for Public Policy was on the minds ofmany . Hundreds of students, alumni and members of the administration gathered to celebrate the public policy institute’s latest addition. Administrators hope additional space and resources provided by the new building will entice new faculty and improve the quality of public policy studies at the University. “Rubenstein Hall just about doubles our space and doubles what we do here at Sanford,” President Richard Brodhead said at the ceremony. “It’s great to build facilities, but I like to tell students, ‘You build facilities for facilitating things.’” The 46,000-square-foot building is named in honor of donor David Rubenstein, Trinity ‘7O and a member of the Board of Trustees. It opened for use in August and includes numerous classrooms, offices and meeting rooms. It will house Sanford’s

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell brought a crowd to its feet Friday as he delivered the keynote address to dedicate Rubenstein Hall, a new building in the Sanford Institute of Public Policy. The event, held in Wilson Recreation Center before approximately 1,115 administrators, alumni, students and local residents, was so well-attended that nearly one thousand people were shut out due to space constraints. Loudspeakers set up outside allowed the overflow crowd to hear Powell’s words. The hour-long speech shifted between personal anecdotes and a serious discussion of the war on terror. Entitled “Diplomacy: Persuasion, Trust and Values,” the address offered a defense of foreign policy under President George W. Bush’s administration. Powell attributed recent war protests to the fact that “democracy is a noisy system,”

It isn’t basketball season, but
Friday afternoon hundreds of people crowded the lawns of Krzyzewskiville anyway. They were not able to enter the at-capacity Wilson Recre-
ation Center for former Secretary of State Colin Powell’s speech at the dedication of Rubenstein Hall.
“Don’t blame me, I’m not the fire marshal,” Powell said, acknowledging the people looking through Wilson’s back glass windows. While those shut out of the gym did not blame Powell, they were critical of the University’s administration and the overall planning process for the touted
speech event.

PARIS French President Jacques Chirac promised arrests, trials and punishment for those sowing “violence or fear” across France Sunday—as urban unrest that has triggered attacks on vehicles, nursery schools and other targets reached central Paris. Youths set ablaze nearly 1,300 vehicles and torched businesses, schools and symbols ofFrench authority, including post offices and provincial police stations, late Saturday and early Sunday. Police clashed with rioters south of the capital Sunday night, the 11th consecutive

The violence took another alarming turn Saturday night with attacks in the wellguarded French capital. Police said 35 cars were torched, most on the city’s northern and southern edges. In central Paris, gasoline bombs damaged three cars near Place de la Republique. Residents reported a loud explosion and flames. “We were very afraid,” said Annie Partouche, 55, who watched the cars burning
from her apartment window. “We were afraid to leave the building.” Chirac spoke after a security meeting of his top ministers. “The law must have the last word,” Chirac said in his first public address on the violence. Those sowing “violence or fear” will be “arrested, judged and punished.” Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin promised speedy trials for rioters and extra security where it was needed. Chirac said France was determined to promote “respect for all, justice and equal opportunities.” Violence has been SEE FRANCE ON PAGE 5
Tornado in Indiana, Kentucky kills 22 by

A tornado with EVANSVILLE, Ind. winds exceeding 158 mph tore a path of devastation through western Kentucky and southern Indiana as residents slept early Sunday, reducing dozens of mobile homes to splinters and turning entire blocks of buildings into piles of rubble. At least 22 people were killed and 200 others injured. Rescuers who arrived at the hard-hit Eastbrooke Mobile Home Park shortly after the tornado struck reported seeing children wandering in the debris, looking
for their parents and parents searching for missing children. Children’s bicycles and other toys were strewn amid mattresses, chairs and insulation. The tornado, the deadliest to hit the state since 1974, hit a horse racing track near Henderson, Ky., then crossed into Indianaaround 2 a.m. “It was just a real loud roar. It didn’t seem like it lasted over 45 seconds to a minute, then it was calm again,” said Steve Gaiser, who lives near the Eastbrook Mobile Home Park in Evansville. At least 17 people were killed in the mobile home park, according to Eric
Williams of the Vanderburgh County Sheriffs Department. More people were believed to be trapped in the debris, and National Guard units were called in to help with searchand-recovery efforts. “They were in trailer homes, homes that werejust tom apart by the storm, so they’re just now getting in there trying to find people,” Deputy Vanderburgh County Coroner Annie Groves said. “It’s just terrible.” Five other people were confirmed dead in neighboring Warrick County, east of Evansville, where the Ohio River city of Newburgh was hit.

Say goodbye to long walks and expensive cab rides—the Shooters party bus is here. Last Thursday, the party bus, which seats thirty, made its Duke debut when it pulled up to the curb at the West Campus bus stop and offered students free rides to the popular bar Shooters 11. “The Shooters bus was amazing—nice, comfy seats, fun lighting and great music!” sophomore Rayleigh O’Keefe said. So where did it come from? “We’ve had the bus for quite some time,” said Kim Cates, owner, manager and bartender at Shooters. “But we just rented it out for private parties.” Now, however, the bar hopes to expand its transit to public functions and eventually offer it as a regular service. “We’d like to be able to do it every night that we’re open. That’s our goal,” Cates said. She cited lack of a full-time driver as the reason for the sporadic service. By eliminating the long ride on the East-West-Central route and the not-sosafe walk to the club, Cates said the bar plans to improve business. Often, she said, students choose to-go to Shooters by foot so they do not have to pay for a taxi—an act that could put them in harm’s way. “We want to keep the Duke kids safe,” Cates said. “Even if it’s just up the road, we don’t mind giving them a ride. We do a lot of the Duke parties, and we decided it was a good idea to bus [the students] here and back because of safety precautions and so they wouldn’t have to walk or pay an expensive cab.” When the bus does run, it will travel from Shooters to West Campus “as many dmes as it has to,” Cates said. The student reaction to the bus has been generally positive. “I think the bus is a good tradeofffor Shooters, because it provides safe transportation while ensuring people actually go to their club,” junior Dean Paras said. Students said the bus may prompt more upperclassmen to go to Shooters as well. The distance of the bar from West

Campus has become a point of con-

The bus definitely provides an incentive to party there more often.” In fact, the bus has been so popular that many could not get on the bus
when they tried. “I’m really upset that I couldn’t get on last week. It looked like so much fun!” freshman Katey Urquhart said. Others, however, were a little more fortunate. “It kept the energy up between pregaming and actually being at Shooters,” O’Keefe said. “Basically, it was an extension of the party, and we didn’t want to get off!”

The man searched the student’s pockets and took $3l, said Leanora Minai, senior public relations specialist for the Duke University Police Department. She added that when the student resisted, the suspect swung a tree branch at him, but the student blocked it. The suspect was otherwise unarmed, and the student was uninjured, Minai said. Though the press release and DUPD officials did not give the student’s name, sophomore Conor Cronin confirmed Sunday he was the student who was robbed. Holt, who is 21 years old, was apprehended by Kemersville police in Forsyth County, about 70 miles away from Duke. He was in possession of a vehicle that had been stolen in Durham, Minai said. After realizing that Holt matched the description of the suspect in that morning’s robbery, Kemersville police faxed his photo to DUPD, and Cronin identified him. He was charged with common law robber. SEE ROBBERY ON PAGE 8

nurse and counselor at Student Health. “Men usually don’t like to go to the doctor until there’s a problem.” Smith, who started the clinic with Student Health physicians, said the program aims to offer a preventative health component to male students. Duke’s program is one of only a few college male clinics in the nation. There are a high number of women’s clinics. Jean Hanson, administrative director of Student Health, said the idea for a men’s clinic first gained attention at the University about five years ago. “There are a lot of problems we can feel embarrassed about that affect men differently,” Hanson said. “[College] is a good time to let men know what they need to be aware of to change behavior and reap benefits when they’re 35, 40 years old.” Unhealthy eating habits, testicular cancer and heart disease are among many of the problems the program tackles. Since its opening, about 10 students have taken advantage of the clinic each week. Male physicians treat patients and address their concerns in a relaxed environment, Smith explained. “One thing that’s really great about the clinic is the setting,” he said. By going to the clinic, patients can also avoid uncomfortable interactions with long-known family doctors at home, Student Health officials noted.

something new,” he says. “Pi Kappa Phi offers something unique, the ability to be a founding father and the opportunity to make the chapter from scratch.” Although the fraternity is a nationally recognized organization, students who opt to join Duke’s chapter will be able to re-establish its prominence from its mercurial existence ofyore when it existed on campus decades ago. Pi Kappa Phi is recognized by the University’s Interfratemity Council, but Duke’s current chapter has yet to be recognized by its national board. The group hopes to be fully established by next semester. Beyond welcoming the chance to revive a fraternity, Zullo also says he appreciates what it means to be a Duke student. He is one of the rare students on campus who has seen a Duke admissions’ rejection letter. This did not deter him, and after being rejected by Duke for a spot in the' freshman class, Zullo transferred to Duke from New York University his sophomore year. Zullo says he instantly saw ways he want-, ed to make a difference. Last year, he served as the president of Central Campus Council and initiated the Transfer Advisory Counselor program. Now Zullo’s latest mission is to create a new, distinctive greek experience with Pi Kappa Phi. “After rushing various fraternities, I just didn’t find the right fit,” he says. “We’re trying to strengthen the Duke greek community by offering a new type of fraternity of leadership, service and brotherhood.” Brothers point to the fraternity’s focus on fostering a community of leaders as the reason for attracting so many Duke students to join Pi Kappa Phi already. And these guys are as eclectic as their costumes.

Throughout the year, the brothers will continue to be involved in Push America, a charitable organization aimed at improving the lives of people with disabilities. After Shooters, Zullo will return to his Central Campus apartment and try to catch a few hours of sleep.

France’s worst civil unrest in more than a decade. His only previous comments came through a spokesperson. From an outburst of anger in suburban Paris housing projects, the violence has fanned out into a nationwide show of disdain for French authority from youths and minorities, most Frenchborn children of Arab and black Africans angered by years of unequal opportunities. Arsonists burned 1,295 vehicles nationwide overnight Saturday-Sunday—sharply up from 897 the night before, national police spokesperson Patrick Hamon said, adding that police made 349 arrests nationwide. For a second night, a helicopter equipped with spotlights and video cameras to track bands of marauding youths combed Paris suburbs and small teams of police chased rioters speeding from attack to attack in cars and on motorbikes. “What we notice is that the bands of youths are, little by little, getting more organized,” Hamon said. They arrange attacks through cell phone text messages and learning how to make gasoline bombs. Police also found a gasoline bombmaking factory in a derelict building in Evry south of Paris, with more than 100 bottles ready to be turned into bombs, another 50 already prepared, as well as fuel stocks and hoods for hiding rioters’ faces, senior Justice Ministry official Jean-Marie Huet told The Associated Press. Police arrested six people, all under 18. The discovery Saturday night, he said, shows that gasoline bombs “are not being improvised by kids in their bathrooms.” Police said copycat attacks are fanning the unrest but had no evidence of separate gangs coordinating.

of natural selection, as is believed under the theory of evolution. Haviland said she believes the intelligent design issue is a hot topic because it encompasses a number of issues, including the separation of church and state and growing religious conservatism. The intelligent design question was chosen for the “Duke It Out” site by IGSP Director Hunt Willard and University provost Peter Lange. “We intended to find a series of questions that could engage the Duke community,” Willard said. Willard added that the site’s questions are meant to coincide with an expansion of IGSP initiatives, including inviting a variety of speakers to discuss genomic policy on campus, the Genomic Revolution FOCUS program and a series of seminars on genomic policy and religion organized by Lange. Willard said the questions posed will continue to be provocative. “They were meant to be personal and to elicit an immediate ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer from within the person reading it,” he said. The intelligent design question will remain on the site until mid-November. Because of the nature of the intelligent design debate, many of the responses were very personal. “One can put his/her faith into one of two things. The theory of evolution, or God as its creator. I choose faith in God rather than man’s theories,” wrote Ronald Patoka, a financial analyst at IGSP who believes in intelligent design. Many other respondents exhibited an
opposing view, including graduate biology
student David Garfield. “We should not be teaching in our class rooms an ideology that is not only empiric cally groundless but based on the idea that the only valid knowledge is faith and direct observation,” Garfield wrote. Patoka said the issue is polarizing. “People believe what they believe and they aren’t interested in changing that,” Patoka said. “For some folks, it becomes their identity, and they oppose anything that challenges that identity. It is unfortunate that now it is perceived as ignorance to believe that God created everything.” Senior Stephen Paul, who was one of the first to post on the site, said he believes evolution should be taught differently. “I feel that the improbabilities ofevolution should not be glossed over or simply ignored, as I feel they often are,” Paul said. He noted that he was disappointed with the number of arguments that simply insist evolution is right and intelligent design is wrong. “I think such arguments are missing the point [of the question] entirely,” Paul said. He said, however, he still feels that “the site exhibits quality discussion.” Haviland and Willard both said the “Duke It Out” site is only meant to spark discussion, not to reach a conclusion or a consensus on the intelligent design issue. Patoka said he believes there will not be any resolution to the issue in his lifetime. “Neither side can conclusively prove their opinions,” Patoka said. “Both evolution and intelligent design need a measure of faith to be believed in. Still, there is nothing wrong with that. Everyone believes in something.”

CARY, N.C. In an ACC semifinal match in which the No. 3 Tar Heels dominated play on the offensive and defensive end of the field, the No. 12 Blue Devils managed to keep the score close and give themselves a chance to send the contest into overtime. With less than eight minutes left in the game and Duke down 2-0, junior forward Darby DUKE _L Kroyer took a short pass from junior midfielder Rebecca Moros UNC 2 and launched a high shot from 35 yards out. It sailed over the head ofTar Heel freshman goalkeeper Anna Rodenbough and into the back of the net, bringing the Blue Devils to within one. “Once we got that goal we were like, ‘we can actually score a goal and attack them,’” Kroyer said. But the late charge was not enough for the Blue Devils (13-5-1), who gave themselves a few scoring opportunities at the end of the game. Freshman forward Christie McDonald sent a high, hanging cross into traffic with 1:30 remaining, but the UNC defense cleared it and secured the 2-1 win. “I think we committed ourselves better in the second half than we did in the first half,” head coach Robbie Church said. “They haven’t won 18 national championships for anything. They come after you. They are always very intense when they come out and play. I was a little disappointed in some of our connections, but I’m very proud of our team.” In the other ACC semifinal match, second-seeded Virginia (15-5-1) defeated third-seededFlorida State (17-3-0).
The Cavaliers were unable to defend their 2004 ACC Championship crown when they lost 4-1 to the Tar Heels in the championship game Sunday. The fourth-seeded Blue Devils entered Friday’s game with a chance to be the first team to beat the top-seeded Tar Heels twice in the same season. Duke won 2-1 at Chapel Hill Oct. 9. But UNC (20-1) took control of this game early when freshman forward Jamie Gilbert headed in the first goal four minutes into the match. “They came out after us early,” Church said. “They came hard and they took us out of the rhythm of play. We were trying to do the same thing to them when we won in Chapel Hill. We were able to accomplish that then but today, they took us out of the rhythm of play, especially in the first half.” Duke failed to register a shot in the first half for the first time this season. But sophomore goalkeeper Allison Lipsher and the Blue Devils’ defense, led by ACC defensive Player of the Year Carolyn Ford, were able to stave off many of North Carolina’s 17 shots until freshman forward Yael Averbuch added her team’s second goal midway through the second half. “To tell you the truth, they are always intense,” Ford said. “They always bring a high level every time you play against them.” The Blue Devils will find out Monday who they will play in the first round of the NCAA tournament. “I think we are getting that big match mentality,” Church said. “In the NCAA tournament, we’ll see the pressure from other teams and we’ve got to be able to play through some pressure.”

Clemson came out firing to begin the game, as Albright converted a Blue Devil turnover into a goal. Gaining control of the ball inside the box, Albright beat Papadakis for the score in the seventh minute. The goal marked only the second time this season that Duke has allowed a goal in the first half. The Blue Devils finished the regular season winless when scoring less than two goals.
Three minutes into the second half, the Tigers increased their lead to 2-0 when junior forward Dane Richards blocked Papadakis’ attempted clear in front of the net and put it past Duke’s diving goalkeeper. “It was not a real good defensive effort tonight,” Rennie said. “The goals that we gave up came off of defensive mistakes, a bad clearance and two unmarked players.” Wadsworth brought the Blue Devils back to within one goal, firing a 12-yard shot through the congested Clemson defense and past Tiger goalkeeper Phil Marfuggi. The goal, Wadsworth’s fifth of the season, seemed to shift the momentum to the Blue Devils, as they continued to pound away at the net, outshoodng the Tigers 12-2 in the second half. “I feel like it gave us more hope than we had,” Wadsworth said of his goal. “We came into this game, and Coach Rennie kept telling us we needed to be prepared mentally, and I don’t think we all did that.” The Blue Devils were not able to capitalize on their many second-half scoring opportunities, while the Tigers netted goals on their only two shots of the period. The two teams combined for a total of 36 fouls. Although more fouls were called on Clemson, the Blue Devils seemed more affected by the numerous whistles. The Tigers turned two Duke penalties into goals. “I think [the referees] just played into our frustrations as the game went on,” senior midfielder Blake Camp said. “We realized we weren’t playing well, and every time a call went against us it just led to our aggravation.”

Late Auburn surge pushes Duke by
Patrick Byrnes THE CHRONICLE
For the first time since Nov. 3, 2002, the women’s golf team lost a tournament on its fall schedule. The top-ranked Blue Devils led by five strokes entering the final round at the Derby Invitational in Auburn, Ala., but they finished in second place after hostschool Auburn carded a 2-under-par round to edge Duke by one stroke. “Auburn played well on their home course,” head coach Dan Brooks said. “I’m really not upset with our performance. A good team played well and nipped us by a shot.” After opening her sophomore campaign with three disappointing tournaments, Jennifer Pandolfi rebounded and finished in a season-best eighth-place tie. She turned in three solid rounds over the weekend, highlighted by a 1-under71 Saturday in the tournament’s second round. “I didn’t hit the ball any better, but I felt like I was able to stay really positive,” Pandolfi said. “I’d been getting very frustrated by bad shots and bad holes and would get down on myself. This weekend I stayed very focused and kept my drive even after I made a bogey.” Pandolfi had not finished any better than 28th individually in the season’s first three tournaments. Through the team’s first three tournaments, her scores had been counted toward the team total only twice in the Blue Devils’ nine rounds; teams drop their worst score. At the Derby Invitational, all three of Pandolfi’s rounds were counted. “She showed a lot of guts out there,” Brooks said. “I’m really proud of her. Her hard work and determination really paid off.” Freshman Amanda Blumenherst and the nation’s third-ranked golfer Anna Grzebien finished in a fourth place tie. Although Blumenherst carded her first two rounds over par of the season, the nation’s top ranked-golfer played consistently over the weekend and notched only one double bogey, as she finished 3-over par for the tournament.

Despite a promising start at the Carpet Capital Classic in Rocky Face, Ga., the seventh-ranked Blue Devils faltered on the final two holes of the second round and could not recover Sunday. The men’s golf team finished the tournament seventh overall, 24 strokes behind champion Georgia State. “Playing against teams like this on a golf course like this proves we can do it,” senior Ryan Blaum said. “If we play well, we can beat anyone.” Entering the final round in fourth place, Duke shot a 14-over par, despite 1-under and even-par performances from Blaum and junior Jake Grodzin-

Freshman Amanda Blumenherst finished in the top four in all four tournaments Duke played this fall. Fellow freshman Jennie Lee struggled Saturday and turned in a 7-over-par 79 that included a triple-bogey eight on the 16th hole, but she shook off the bad day and fired a 1-over round to close out the tournament
“Both freshmen came in and did a great job,” Brooks said. “Putting was very tough, and had they gotten a few more to fall, I feel like they could have been shooting in the 605.”
Senior Liz Janangelo continued the strong play that earned her an individual tide at the Stanford Intercollegiate last month. The captain, ranked No. 4in the country, opened the tournament with a 1-under round and finished in an 11thplace tie.

Grodzinsky was the top golfer for the Blue Devils, finishing the tournament seventh overall, eight strokes behind Georgia State’s Mark Haastrup. Steady throughout the tournament, Grodzinsky shot scores of 70, 71 and 72. “It was one of those days when we couldn’t get anything to happen,” head coach Rod Myers said about the team’s performance Sunday. Duke was in a strong position after leading with two holes to go in the opening round Friday but finished the day’s action in third. The Blue Devils looked to remain in the hunt as Day 2 came to an end, but they ended the 17th and 18th holes a combined 9-over par. The team had difficulty adjusting to the poorly maintained greens throughout the weekend, Myers said. “It was like putting on cobblestone,” Blaum added.

Unlike many Duke CLEMSON, S.C. the Blue Devils did not season, this games the third in quarter. Inblown out get stead, Clemson put the game out of reach Just before halftime. On third-and-12 from the Clemson 27yard line with less than a minute remaining in the first half, the Blue Devils (1-9, 07 in the ACC) ran a quarterback draw and picked up six yards. With the score 21-3, they assumed a field goal would keep them in contention after halftime. A blocked field goal, a penalty and four Clemson plays later, and the Blue Devils trailed 28-3 entering the locker room at the break, en route to a 49-20 blowout loss. “It was a big momentum shift,” head coach Ted Roof said. “Instead of getting three points and being within two possessions, now looking back, after we take the opening kickoff in the second half and march it down, it would have been a one-
possession game.”
Duke mounted a short-lived comeback effort after receiving the opening kickoff of the second half, producing one of the team’s longest drives of the season. The possession, in which Zack Asack completed five of six passes, lasted 15 plays and took over seven minutes as the Blue Devils marched 77 yards. Running back Justin Boyle pounded in a oneyard touchdown to cap the drive, bringing the score to 28-10. But Duke’s defense could not slow down the Tigers (5-4, 3-4). Throughout the game, Clemson’s running attack trampled the Blue Devil front seven. Senior Reggie Merriweatherrushed for 105 yards on 18 carries and three touchdowns. Freshman James Davis carried the ball for 85 yards and a touchdown on only eight attempts and quarterback Will Proctor snuck into the end zone as well. “They blocked and they ran the ball well,” Roof said. “I don’t know how many yards after contact they got, but it was certainly too many.... We’ve got to do a better job of tackling.” Although the defense struggled, Duke’s offense had what several players called one of the team’s best games of the season. Freshman quarterback Zack Asack turned in a career day, connecting on 26-of-43 passes for 328 yards and a touchdown. “This offense is awesome,” Asack said. “It was a good feeling once we were making plays. This game, it just started all clicking.” Wide receiver Eron Riley, who has emerged as the team’s deep threat in recent weeks, led the team in receiving. The freshman had four catches for 130 yards and a score, which came on a 66-yard catch—the longest play of his and Asack’s careers. Aside from Riley, much of Asack’s production came on throws to tight ends, an aspect of the offense that had been absent for most of this season. Ben Patrick, who had 18 receptions for the season entering the game, pulled in 10 catches for 100 yards. Andy Roland also grabbed five balls, four of which went for first downs. “We wanted to get the tight ends some passes,” Asack said. “We’ve been watching film, and they’ve been open. They did a great job today stepping up and making big plays for us.” If not for several Blue Devil mistakes, the game might have been significantly closer. After kicker Joe Surgan’s field goal attempt was blocked, he threw the helmet of a Clemson player in frustratiqn, earning a 15-yard penalty.and pl^c-

ing the Tigers inside the Duke 35 with 32 seconds remaining in the half. The Tigers pounced, notching a score that blew the game open.
On the team’s opening drive in the first half, Duke marched from its own 20 across midfield to the Clemson 40. But after a
holding and a personal foul call, the Blue Devils were in a second-and-38 situation and were soon forced to punt, “Some of those penalties were really critical as far as field position,” Roof said, “We’ve got to do a better Job coaching and we’ve got to do a better job executing.”

Asack’s career-day offers glimpse of Duke’s future by
Alex Fanaroff
THE CHRONICLE
CLEMSON, S.C. No one saw this one coming. No one could have predicted that Zack Asack would complete 26-of-43 passes for 328 yards and a touchdown. No one would have imagined Asack would tally more passing yardage than any quarterback Clemson has faced this season—a list that includes Miami’s Kyle Wright, Georgia Tech’s Reggie Ball and Texas A&M’s Reggie McNeal. One week after registering just 97 yards passing against Wake Forest, and four weeks after totaling only eight yards against Miami, Asack found a groove in a big way against the Tigers. “Week after week, I’ve built up that confidence,” Asack said. “And this week, it started to all come together and really clicking, and going into next week, I’ll have a lot ofconfidence.” The true freshman’s statistics only tell part of the story. Quite simply, Asack looked very impressive. In Duke’s last road game, Oct. 8 in Miami, the quarterback looked lost and tentative at times, completing just four passes and rarely taking a shot downfield. Against Clemson, in front of a hostile and large Homecoming crowd, Asack exuded confidence in the pocket, standing tall in the face of Clemson blitzes and delivering the ball on target. He made short throws over the middle to tight ends Ben Patrick and Andy Roland, intermediate throws to his wide receivers and three well-
placed deep throws to wideoutEron Riley for long gains. On Duke’s first possession of the sec-
ond half, Asack led the Blue Devils’ 15play, 77-yard march downfieldfor a touchdown. He threw for 49 yards on the drive, and extended the offensive series with three first-down passes on third-down plays —a six-yard pass to Roland on thirdand-four, a four-yarder to Roland on thirdand-three and a 10-yard completion to Patrick on third-and-seven. “He’s progressing,” Duke head coach Ted Roof said. “We had some early success throwing the football. I thought Zack had good protection, made some nice reads, made some nice throws.” Duke’s much-maligned offensive line was important to the quarterback’s success, both Roof and Asack said. The front five matched the Clemson rushers and gave the quarterback time to throw. And when the Tiger’s sent more men than the offensive line could handle, running backs Re’quan Boyette and Justin Boyle were able to turn aside the blitzers. “I thought he was protected pretty well for the most part, which allowed him to get back there in the pocket, set his feet and go through his read progressions,” Roof said. Duke’s play calling also helped Asack and the rest of the offense. The Blue Devils executed several play-action passes, rolled Asack out of the pocket and even mixed in a couple of option runs. They lined up in multiple formations, including a set where Boyette lined up at fullback on a third-and-one and received the handoff.
It was a marked difference from an offense that was predictable in the early part of the year. Before the season, players described offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien’s offense as complex, but it did not live up to that billing in the early going. Against Clemson, the Blue Devil offense looked like it was coming into its own —and it showed in the final statistics. The Blue Devils’ 407 total yards of of-
fense was their highest total of the season by 56 yards. Their 20 first downs were the most they’ve recorded against Division I-A competition all season. “This week, [the offense] just started clicking and I just happened to have a good day throwing,” Asack said. Good day is an understatement. With his performance against Clemson, Asack gave Duke fans plenty of hope for the future.

Curtis Lane
THE CHRONICLE
Seniors Ludovic Walter and Stokke ended the fall season with strong performances for the men’s tennis team, finishing second and fourth, respectively, at the ITA Indoor Nationals in Columbus, Ohio. “This is the toughest tournament to get into of all the college events,” assistant coach Ramsey Smith said. “It has the top 32 players in the country, and most had to win regional tournaments just to get in. For us to have our top two players finish in the top four at this event is a great sign and will give us a really good one-two punch heading into the spring season.” Walter, ranked second in the preseason ITA singles rankings, faced five opponents in the tournament, four of whom were seeded in the top 10. To get to the finals, Walter defeated Brandon Wai of Yale, fifth-ranked Jerry Makowski of Texas A&M, Baylor’s Lars Poerschke and ninthranked K.C. Corkery of Stanford. In the finals, however, Walter ran into UCLA’s Ben Kohlloeffel, ranked third in the nation and seeded fourth in the tournament. The first set of the match went back and forth, coming to a 5-5 tie before Kohlloeffel was able to break Walter’s serve and win the set, 7-5. “The first set was very tight,” Smith said. actually thought [Walter] was in control “I most of the set.... It could have gone either way. He was two points from winning, and if he had won that set I think things would have gone differently.” Walter, however, was unable to recover and lost the second set, 6-1. The finish was still encouraging for the 2004 All-American.

Ludovic Waiter bounced back from a tough fall schedule to finish second in the ITA Indoor Nationals.
“I played with a lot of confidence for the whole tournament,” Walter said. “[Kohlloeffel] returned better than I did, and that was the difference in the match. It was good for me to win those [earlier] matches because I lost a couple of matches early in the season to guys who played really well. I was never really down on myself, I just kept working hard and ended up playing really well this weekend.” Stokke, on the other hand, came into the tournament confident and playing well, making his first appearance at the event. After losing his first match of the
tournament, he advanced to the finals of the consolation bracket, where he fell to
national No. 1 Ryler DeHeart of Illinois. Stokke won the first set, 7-6, in a tiebreak, but DeHeart took the final two, 6-2, 6-4. “Jon had another batde today, and it came down to one break at the end of the third set,” Smith said. “He hung in there until the very last point, and the whole time I really thought he was going to pull it out. This was by far Jon’s best fall. For him to get to the back-draw of the finals was really impressive and a reflection of how hard he has been working.”

“That was pretty hard because we feel like we should have won that game, definitely,” freshman middle blocker Jourdan Norman said. “UNC, at some points—I don’t know—got lucky. I felt like it went that way for them sometimes. It came down to the last two points and they just happened to get it” The team was able to bounce back from its defeat and down N.C. State (717, 1-15) in a three-game sweep Sunday afternoon. The match was never in doubt as Duke won each game by an average of more than eight points. “[lt was] a great team effort all the way around,” Nagel said. “I really credit this team with being a team right now. It could be off the court, it could be on the court, but they really support each other and challenge each other, and I think that’s going to help us get better over time.” Norman, who registered her second and third career double-doubles, had a breakout weekend. She collected a career-high 16 digs against UNC and a match-high 14kills against N.C. State. “Jordan doesn’t really say a whole lot,” Nagel said. “But she certainly says a lot with her play.” Sophomores Carrie DeMange and Ali Hausfeld continued to show why they were selected preseason All-ACC. DeMange recorded her 17th double-double of the year against North Carolina, collecting a team-high 15 kills to go along with her career-high 18 digs. Hausfeld tallied 77 assists over the weekend, moving her within almost 200 of her 2004 season total of 1,399, which was good for fifth alltime in Duke history.
Duke senior Jackie Carleton posted a career-best finish at the ITA National Intercollegiate Indoor Championships in Columbus, Ohio, this past weekend by reaching the round of 16. Meanwhile, the rest of the Blue Devils capped a successful fall season with a solid performance at the Kitty Harrison Invitational in Chapel Hill. Carleton, who had qualified for the ITA Championships by reaching the finals of the ITA Southeast Regionals Oct. 17, fell in second round action to thirdseeded Kristi Miller of Georgia Tech, 4-6, 64, 6-2. “She should not be satisfied with that [result], but it was her best finish in a Grand Slam event,” head coach Jamie Ashworth said. “This will give her confidence that she can play at that level.” Carleton had beaten Ohio State’s Caidin O’Keefe, 6-3, 64, Thursday for her first win of the tournament. At the Kitty Harrison Invitational, a tournament that featured a number of ACC schools including Virginia Tech and North Carolina, the team had mixed success in its singles matches, finishing 9-9, but shined in doubles play throughout the weekend, amassing an 8-1 record. “We got to play matches against eight different teams,” Ashworth said. “Our doubles all weekend were really good. We changed some teams around, but the stuff we’ve been working on was put into use.” The Duke team now has more than two months off before it begins its spring season Jan. 13. “This is the perfect time to work on stuff and change peoples’ games,” Ashworth said. This fall Duke showed improvement in its doubles play, which was a weakness for the Blue Devils last season. “We can’t let the last three months go to waste,” Ashworth said.

After a fast start Saturday, the rowing team continued its success with 11 top-ten finishes Sunday at the Head of the Hooch Regatta in Chattanooga, Tenn. The crew of Alissa Van Amam and Virginia Kane highlighted Duke’s impressive Sunday with a first place finish in the Open 2x. The Blue Devils swept the race, as Krista Harryman and Emily Herrington finished second and Tonia Boock and Gwen Coleman placed third. “This race showed how we have great team depth,” Van Amam, a junior, said. “Our biggest competition was ourselves.” On Saturday Duke recorded three top-10 finishes, including Lia Hart and Emma Darling’s first place finish in the Championship 2x race with a time of 18:33.00. The team also placed second in the Championship 8+ race with a time of 16:28.20. Finally the varsity four
crew took second place in the Championship 4+ with a time of 19:14.90. “We had a solid team performance this weekend,” head coach Robyn Homer said. “We did a great job in the pair race, and overall I was very pleased with our effort and our technical work.” Along with the Blue Devils’ sweep of the Open 2x, Duke crews also finished second and third in the Open 4x race and eighth in the Open 8+ race. The Blue Devils also performed well in the Open lx, as sophomore Hart finished second, sophomore Iraina Miles placed seventh and freshman Michelle Lancto finished tenth. The Blue Devils will head west next week to wrap up their fall season at the Head of the Lake Regatta in Seattle. ‘WeTe in a good spot right now, but we’re really going to be challenged next week against teams such as Cal, Washington, and Stanford,” Homer said.

With the four of the nation’s top five teams—No. 1 Wake Forest, No. 2 Duke, No. 3 Maryland and No. 5 North Carolina—all competing this weekend for the ACC Championship, the fact that the games were so evenly matched came as no surprise. “No one controlled the play,” Duke head coach Beth Bozman said about the semifinal. “Maryland had a great shot at the end, and that’s the difference in the game.” The teams traded goals throughout the first half. Less than nine minutes into the game, Maryland’s Paula Infante and Sarah Scholl combined on a give-and-go near the circle, and Infante found the cage for an early 1-0 lead. The Blue Devils countered in the 18th minute with their own goal by forward Katie Grant. Six minutes later, Duke goalie Christy Morgan deflected an Infante comer, but the Blue Devils were unable to clear the rebound before Maryland’s Jackie Ciconte crashed the net to put the Terps ahead 2-1. The score was knotted at two just 20 seconds later, however, when Grant took matters into her own hands and netted her second goal of the night with an unassisted strike. After a second half assist, Grant finished the game with five points. It was the fifth contest this season that she reached at least that mark. The assist brought Grant’s career assist total to 60, which is just three fewer than the Duke all-time record of 63.

The men’s cross country team’s second-tier runners swept Claflin Saturday to win the Wolfpack Invitational at the SAS Soccer Park in Cary, N.C. Although the team took the top eight official spots to earn a perfect 15-point score, Duke’s finishes were interspersed with several unattached runners. Turning in a second place time of 15:16.87 for the 5kilometer race, sophomore Mark Buha led Duke. Buha finished 14.03 seconds behind last year’s ACC Freshman of the Year, N.C. State’s Gavin Coombs, who ran the race unattached and is redshirting the 2005 season. Sophomore Kyle Kershner finished fourth with a 15:20.88 time, .4 seconds behind N.C. State freshman John Martinez, who also ran unattached. “These guys are running at a much higher level,” head coach Norm Ogilvie said of his top two performers. “They’re racing much faster than in high school. Their performances were outstanding.” Ogilvie said the race was used as an opportunity to further develop the Blue Devils’ depth. Duke’s top five runners in the meet—Buha, Kershner and juniors Alex Reinhart, Patrick Parish and Marco Salmen —will also run in the IC4A Championships Nov. 19 in New York, N.Y. “We’re trying to develop a full team,” Ogilvie said. “We just need to continue racing so when they move up, they’ll be ready to go.” Although the women’s team did not officially compete in the Wolfjpack Invitational, eight members of the team’s B squad ran the race unattached, including freshman Anna Farias-Eisner who unofficially finished first with a time of 17:36.06. Both of the Blue Devils’ A squads will next compete at the NCAASoutheast Regionals Nov. 12 in Greenville, N.C.

Forward Nicole Dudek found the back of the net off a direct corner, with assists from Grant and Marian Dickinson. But Maryland’s Rowe knotted the score at three with less than seven minutes remaining for the game’s third tie score. She finished the game with her winning shot several minutes later. “We went ahead in the second half, and they mounted a really strong attack in the last six and a half minutes of the game,” Bozman said. “There were no bad shots to make a difference in this game. I think both teams played really great games, and it was just a matter of they did one more good thing than we did and that was the win.” Although the Blue Devils lost to Maryland in the ACC semifinals for the second consecutive year, Bozman was still proud of her team. “I think this is the best that—certainly since I’ve been here at Duke—this is the best that any Duke team has ever played,” Bozman said. “It was a great, unbelievably
high-skilled college game.”
Bozman said she expects the Blue Devils to be the third seed when the NCAA announces its tournament field Tuesday. She said Wake Forest will likely be the top seed, followed by Maryland. The Blue Devils have a week before the opening round of the NCAAs, which begins Nov. 12. “We’ve been working on picking our game up and working a little bit harder and faster every game.” Bozman said “We’ll be ready.”

CROWD from page 1 Officials set up loudspeakers outside of Wilson so the disgruntled crowd could hear the speech. A common criticism was the selection of Wilson as the venue for the event. Students suggested other facilities would have been better options. Minutes before the speech began, a University official addressed the burgeoning crowd in an effort to explain the space constraints. Wallace Wade Stadium was ruled out because of concerns about the weather, and Cameron Indoor Stadium had regular basketball practice at the time, the official said. Page Auditorium was the site of Body Rock cabaret, which took place at 7 p.m.
Friday. “They have the capacity to do better than that,” said Steven Spoel, a fourth-year doctorate student in biology, said of planning for Powell’s speech. Some of those shut out suggested that the organizers of the event could have predicted such a high turnout. “Given his stature and given the interpublic in his perspective on international relations and defense, Duke might have anticipated an overflow crowd,” said Betty Faucette, who is a Durham resident and also a member of the Duke Institute of Learning and Retirement. Sandra Peters, special event coordinator and building manager for the Sanford Institute ofPublic Policy, did not respond to requests for comment. Tiffany Webber contributed to this story. est of the

reminding the assembled group that the Iraqi people face bombs every day for a chance to participate in democracy. “We have to stay the course in Iraq,” he noted. Powell also emphasized a myriad offoreign policy successes, including the fact that Europe is “whole, free and at peace” for the first time in 200 years. Even though other countries sometimes resent America, he said, they still turn to the country for help. ‘We are a welcoming nation, an open nation, a nation that touches every other on earth,” Powell said, adding that as long as Americans abide by their values, opponents will never win. He underscored this theme with a story about a group of vacationing Brazilian teenagers who made a mistake with the exchange rate and found themselves in a Chicago restaurant where they could not pay the tab.

“This is an isolated incident,” Minai said. “It’s a crime of opportunity. This person saw this student walking alone, it was late and he took that opportunity to take advantage of the situation.” Minai said DUPD has patrols all around East Campus but it would be impossible to prevent all crime at the University. “You can’t have every square inch of campus covered with officers,” she said.

The new facility is also expected to bring new faculty to Sanford. “We already have an extremely talented faculty, but we would like to double its size,” Kuniholm said. “We were somewhat like a stork, standing on one leg and carrying a new baby in our beak. The new building... enables us to better support a larger family.” The expansion of the public policy program through initiatives such as Rubenstein Hall increases the likelihood that, Sanford will become its own school within the UniKw»ihpJfl)*4ii;€Ctpf ofthe t

Many of the younger associates just used the phones to boast about their close connection to Washington’s elite. “I was buying all these guys chick magnets,” he said. As he took 15 minutes of questions after the speech, Powell surprised the audience with queries of his own about their academic interests and personal backgrounds, leading one student to inteiject, “Is it okay for me to ask a question now?” Powell’s own educational background is one of stark contrast to his current success. He was a self-described “not great” student in high school. He said he was lucky to gain admission to the City College of New York. “For those of you bouncing around with C’s, there’s hope,” he said to the. applauding crowd.

Sanford Institute. The Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences is an example of one such school. This past summer, a provost-sanctioned task force recommended that the University begin the process of forming a separate school for public policy. “The school envisioned by the task force would enable the University to establish a broader, deeper engagement in public life while sustaining and enhancing undergraduate and graduate programs in public policy,” Kuniholm said. The University recently added a Ph.D. component to Sanford. The program will launch in 2007. The decision to become a separate school is still in its nascent stages, Kuniholm added. “The process will probably not come to any conclusion until sometime next year,”

Rethinking housing On the surface, the gender gap in access to selective living group housing on campus seems egregious. Of the 23 selective living groups on campus, 12 are fraternities and none are allfemale. The dominance of all-male living groups on campus contributes to the perpetuation ofa male-dominated social scene. While fraternities and other selective living groups are guaranteed use on-campus space for large parties and alcoholic events, all-female groups—namely sororities—are not. Fraternities and other groups, both co-ed and all-male, have the privilege of housing on West Campus, throwing parties in the convenient and laxly patrolled space of their dormitory rooms and developing a network cemented by common living space. None of these benefits are currendy offered to any allfemale group on campus. The recendy created Baldwin Scholars living area has the potential to function as an all-female
living group, but in these nascent stages, it still resembles a University-created
scholarship program far more than a sedaily-centered living group, This discrepancy does need to be addressed. staffeditoriaf The touted benefit of selective living is that it fosters a community dependent on housing. The proximity offered by dorm life is unparalleled in other environments. Given the centrality of group identity and brand name to the on-campus social scene, women ought to have access to that This is an issue that Residence Life and Housing Services has discussed. When rumors surfaced in 2003 that sororities were considering applying for housing, it was one of many factors that led to a moratorium on new selective housing. While fraternities have had housing for decades and co-ed living groups have formed and flourished in Duke’s history, all-female groups have struggled in Duke’s co-ed culture. •

and less than a third of West Campus space as a whole.. Adding sororities to the selective living group aspect ofhousing could drastically alter this balance. The governing bodies of sororities generally strive to keep obvious and major distinctions among sororities down. If a couple of sororities were tied to housing, that could upset the entire processes of both housing and sorority selection. If all sororities were to gain housing, that would drastically cut into the number of selective living group spaces. Given the scope of the organizations, offering sororities housing is a much larger question than adding a handful of individual all-female living groups. It would require a major institutional overhaul. But the real question that this discussion begs is that of selective living group housing. If the system as it exists is gender-biased, then how should the relationship between independent- and selective living group- space develop?

But the issue of introducing sorority housing is not simply related to questions of increasing all-female living options. Sororities are not just pre-established groups of women who could live together. They are entangled with fully separate institutions—the Panhellenic Council or the National Panhellenic Council—that govern a full network of sororities. For one sorority to gain housing could throw the entire female greek system into flux. At Duke, students classify themselves into one of three basic categories: independent, greek or member of a selective living group. The problem, however, is that these categories are not distinct. Greek men, more frequently than not, are also members of selective living groups. Greek women, however, are classified as independent as far as housing is concerned. Current guidelines limit the quantity of selective living group space to less than 50 percent of a given quadrangle

letterstotheeditor Privilege should not mean entidement Colin Powell’s speech led to quite a spectacle. Of course, I didn’t hear the speech itself; rather, I am referring to the line outside. As the seats filled, it became clear that hundreds of people were not going to be admitted. Standing sixth in line after waiting for over an hour, I took solace in the organizers’ promises of the availability of 60 more seats. Others, for whom all hope should have been abandoned, heard this announcement and took the initiative. A mob converged upon the door, and, suddenly, where there once was a line, there was chaos. For me, where there should have been a reward for patiently waiting in line, there was the disgusting scene of students pushing one another like coked-out 12 year olds in the front row of a Justin Timberlake concert. By now, you are probably playing the world’s tiniest violin for me. I appreciate that, but I am not seeking your pity for my small misfortune. This incident and others (including a similar occurrence at the Jarhead screening) have called my attention to a serious problem with the Duke student body. A great many of the brilliant young men and women at this university believe that they are, for whatever reason, entitled to certain privileges beyond those reserved for the mere mortal (not to mention the poor or the unintelligent). On that note, let me share some wisdom with you: The simple fact that your daddy earns six, seven or eight figures a year does not make you special. And no, your intelligence doesn’t either. I offer a solution. Try to come to grips with the fact that you are a human being. Just because you were the golden child in high school or your dad owns a dealership, you are not inherently better than the people around you. Endeavor to make this community one that we can be proud of by showing some respect to those around you.

Duke parking inadequate In reference to the article “Graduate students lament parking shortage” (Nov. 2, 2005), I would just like to add that parking at Duke is terrible, not just for graduate students, but for most students who have cars. The parking decals are already exponentially more expensive than those at other prestigious universities, and on top of that, fines and tickets are ridiculously expensive. When students receive their decals, there is no information attached that shows where and when students can park on campus. Are we just supposed to know that we can park anywhere after 4 p.m. with our parking pass and anywhere after 5 p.m. with our Duke ID? If it weren’t for word of mouth, I would guess most students would have no clue. Additionally, even though we’re supposedly allowed to park anywhere on weekends,
towing is still being enforced in front of spaces where there are no signs. Which of the thousands of empty spaces on campus am I not allowed to park in on weekends? Yes, Duke has done some things to solve its parking problems such as
building the Bryan Center garage, but I believe there is still plenty to be doneso that Duke studentswon’t be taking it up the tailpipe anymore. Pengyu Chen MEM’O6 Library seeks student input Tom Wall, director of public service for Perkins Library, and the rest of the library staff should be commended for their commitment to seeking student feedback for the new Bostock addition and following through on suggestions. When students at last Monday’s DSG town hall meeting raised concerns about OIT e-printing in Bostock, course library reserves and even odors in the lavatories, Dr. Wall and his colleagues responded quickly, correcting all of these situations within 48 hours. In order to increase this kind of student input, Dr. Wall and DSG’s Academic Affairs committee are creating a new student library advisory committee, which will provide feedback on future space usage, technology and library services in the Bostock addition, the soon-to-be-renovated Perkins building, as well as all other branch libraries on campus. All interested undergraduate and graduate students are encouraged to fill out an application, which is currently available on the DSG website at www.dsg.duke.edu.

DSG should vote without bias Elizabeth Rudisill has greatly misconstrued Duke Student Government’s decision to grant Students for Academic Freedom recognition on campus (“All becomes clear” Oct. 31, 2005). When DSG chooses to recognize an organization, it is not endorsing its beliefs or practices, but rather its right to exist. I am sure many Duke students pride themselves on the diverse number of student organizations that exist on campus. Undergraduate admissions staff members boast that students can find any organization to match their interest, or create a new group. Since DSG has the task of approving new groups on campus, it must stay clear of its members’ own ideological biases. Any type of government, including our own, should not be in the business of picking and choosing what groups can congregate and assemble on campus, but rather should ensure a climate open to competing ideas. Personally, I welcome an opposing viewpoint. The studentswho disagree with SAF should welcome its addition to
campus, simply for the debate and discussionit will no doubt foster, as well as for the opportunity to argue against it I do not think SAF will have any adverse affect in the classroom. No professor is required to sign their now infamous pledge, and SAF is already balanced out by organizations like die American Civil Liberties Union, which by all appearances have similar agendas. On the other hand, SAF will (and hasjf drawn attention to the discrepancy of conservatives and liberals in academia. Rather than subverting our professors, I think they will foster a classroom environment more open to rational discussion and different points of view, so that no student feels afraid to voice his opinion. Of course, I want our professors to remain free to express their own thoughts, but they should not be able to punish anotherperson for rational dissent, be it conservative or liberal in nature. Rudisill’s opinion reeks of hypocrisy. Even if I thought granting SAF recognition went against the best interest of our university, my respect for freedom of assembly is so great that Lwould have voted to approve them anyway.
Jeremy Marshall Trinity ’OB Court reveals ALE faults I am angry the case against the Markham house got thrown out. I am not angry with the court, which acted appropriately, or with the residents of the house in question, but rather with the actions of the Alcohol Law Enforcement and the North Carolina bureaucracy that brought about the proper verdict. The recent decision to expunge all state evidence ofalcohol violations has finally held the ALE accountable for the unprofessional and illegal methods that I’m sure it has used for years. Illegal detention and interrogation, unwarranted searches, failure to read Miranda rights, etc..., may fly in Guatanamo Bay (sadly), but there is no legal ambiguity on this side of the Keys that this is absurdly unconstitutional. Rather than pursuing their cases by means that would serve the ends of justice and actually enforce law, by being lazy and sloppy the ALE has let criminals off the hook. While I’m not going to cry about my classmates getting off the hook, I do cry about the waste of taxpayers’ money that entails. ALE methods have been condoned for so long only because their subjects have only been either too poor, ignorant or intimidated to hire a lawyer and ask questions. In the end we are left with a handful of improperly criminalized freshmen, and a state prosecution that has done nothing but waste their time and our money.
