ARAMARK will not bid Unrest hits Main West to renew Duke contract 6 companies remain in contention for role as new provider; decision expected by late April by

THE CHRONICLE

Campus food provider ARAMARK Corp. has turned down the opportunity to rebid on its contract at the University, company officials and Duke dining administrators confirmed Monday. The surprising decision was made last week following months of speculation about the company’s future at Duke. “ARAMARK respectfully declined to participate in the process at this time,” Karen Cutler, the company’s director of corporate communications, wrote in an e-mail. Five other companies—including Meriwether-Godsey, Inc., a relatively small provider, and Sodexho, an international conglomerate—remain in contention for the right to manage several on-campus dining facilities when ARAMARK’s contract expires June 30. ARAMARK’s decision came quite unexpectedly, explained Jim Wulforst, director of dining services. Wulforst received notice from the company Mar. 23—a day before all six bidders were scheduled to meet on campus with several administrators for a question-and-answer session. He said he sent each company a fact

sheet March 22 that outlined the wants and needs ofDuke dining. In it, he noted, “the University reserves the right to award management of these operations to one firm or to split [the operations]” among more than one company. The stipulation leaves open the option of having more than one of the bidding companies manage operations in the fall, Wulforst said. For instance, a smaller firm could concentrate on the East Union building while a larger one takes control of the Great Hall, Subway and Chick-fil-A, he explained. Cutler wrote that ARAMARK reached its decision “after careful review and consideration of the dining service configuration as outlined in the University’s

request.”

Several student leaders said they are pleased with the week’s turn-of-events. “I’m surprised that ARAMARK would give up without more of a fight, but after three DUSDAC votes of no confidence.... I can’t say I didn’t expect it,” said senior Andrew Wallace, co-chair of the Duke University Student Dining Advisory Committee. SEE ARAMARK ON PAGE 5

DPD gives lacrosse players' DNA to crime lab, protesters'speak out'against alleged assault by

Emily Rotberg THE CHRONICLE

Durham Police Department Sgt. M.D. Gottlieb delivered DNA samples taken from 46 members of the Duke men’s lacrosse team to the State Bureau of Investigation Monday afternoon, District Attorney Mike Nifong said. Also Monday, community members gathered on campus to protest the team’s silence and Duke’s actions in response to accusations three of the athletes sexually assaulted a local woman over Spring Break. Police photographed 46 of the 47 lacrosse team members and collected DNA samples in the form ofcheek swabs Thursday afternoon following allegations that the athletes gang-raped, sodomized and

strangled a dancer at a March 13 party. Nifong confirmed that police took DNA samples from three students who said they were not present at the party. “Given that the lacrosse team provided very little information to the police, they decided to sample all the Caucasian members rather than allow the people who weren’t there off,” he said. Police exempted the only black team member from testing because the dancer identified her attackers as white men. Despite earlier reports from DPD suggesting that it would have the DNA results Monday, Nifong said he expects answers from the SBI next week. “I talked to the SEE LACROSSE ON PAGE 6

Shiites angry over U.S. raid

Moussaoui planned to hijack sth plane by

Michael Sneffen

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALEXANDRIA, Va.

Laying out a

stunning new version of his mission, al Qaeda conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui testified Monday that he was supposed to hijack a fifth jetliner on Sept. 11, 2001, with would-be shoe bomber Richard Reid and

fly it into the White House. But the jury also heard the mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, now in United States custody, repeatedly state that Moussaoui was to be a part of a second wave of attacks unrelated to Sept. 11. In a 58-page statement read to jurors, Shaikh Mohammed said that he

only wanted Middle Easterners for Sept. 11 so that Europeans like Moussaoui stood a better chance of mounting a subsequent attack after security was increased. Testifying against the advice of his court-appointed lawyers, Moussaoui shocked the courtroom. Jurors who will decide whether he is executed or imprisoned for life were almost motionless during his nearly three hours on the stand. They didn’t look down to take notes; all eyes locked on the bearded 37-year-old Frenchman of Moroccan descent—the only person charged in this country in connection with Sept. 11.

His testimony started in familiar territo-

ry. He denied he was supposed to be the socalled missing 20th hijacker of Sept. 11. He testified he was not intended to be a fifth attacker on United Airlines Flight 93 that crashed into a Pennsylvania field—the only plane hijacked by four instead offive insurgents. Then came the shock. Defense attorney Gerald Zerkin: “Before your arrest, were you scheduled to pilot a plane as part of the 9/11 operation?” Moussaoui: ‘Yes. I was supposed to pilot a plane to hit the White House.” SEE MOUSSAOUI ON PAGE 8

Senate panel OKs immigration bill by

David Espo

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Senate JudiciaWASHINGTON ry Committee approved sweeping electionyear legislation Monday that clears the way for 11 million illegal aliens to seek United States citizenship, a victory for demonstrators who had spilled into the streets by the hundreds of thousands demanding better treatment for immigrants. With a bipartisan coalition in control, the committee also voted down proposed criminal penalties on immigrants found to be in the country illegally. It approved a new temporary program allowing entry for

1.5 million workers seeking jobs in the agriculture industry. “All Americans wanted fairness and they got it this evening,” said Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., who played a pivotal role in drafting the legislation. There was no immediate reaction from the White House, and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. said he hoped President Bush would participate in efforts to fashion consensus legislation. “The only thing that’s off the table is inaction,” said Graham, who voted for the committee bill. The 12-6 vote broke down along unusual lines, with a majority of the panel’s Re-

publicans opposed to the measure even though their party controls the Senate. Sen. Jon Kyi, R-Ariz., seeking re-election this fall in his border state, said the bill offered amnesty to illegal immigrants, and sought unsuccessfully to insert tougher provisions. He told fellow committee members that the economy would turn sour some day and Americans workers would want the jobs that now go to illegal immigrants. They will ask, “how could you have let this happen,” he added. Committee chairman Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania was one of four Republicans to support the bill.

Shiite politicians raged at the United States and halted negotiations on a new government Monday after a military assault killed at least 16 people in what Iraqis claim was a mosque. Fresh violence erupted in the north, with 40 killed in a suicide bombing.

4 vie for each of 2 VP positions crimebriefs Improving Duke-Durham relations tops list of community interaction candidates goals by

Neal SenGupta THE CHRONICLE

Maintaining positive relations with the community is a priority for the University and for Duke Student Government. This year, juniors Daniel Bowes and Jason Gross and freshmen Jordan Giordano and Maya Salwen hope to do just that as they vie for the position of DSG’s vice president of community interaction. The winner of the election will chair the Inter-Community Council and work to improve communication and relationships within the Duke community and those with Durham. The four candidates have had varying experiences working with Duke-Durham relations—either through DSG or other organizations. All of them, however, agree that Duke needs a better relationship with

the surrounding community. Bowes, who is a Chronicle columnist, said his experience as this year’s president of Duke Americau Civil Liberties Union will enable him to be more active in working with community relations. “When issues or events arise that strain the trust between Duke and the larger Durham community—like the recent allegations against the Duke lacrosse team meaningful engagement between the Durham community and students must be facilitated by an individual who has a sincere and demonstrated commitment to both groups,” Bowes said. In his platform, he also focuses on Duke student-employee relations and suggests implementing voluntary interaction —

The four candidates running for the position of Duke Student Government Vice president of academic affairs together represent more than 17 campus organizations. Sophomores Tina Hoang and Lee Kornfeld and juniors Maggie McGannon and Ryan Strasser all have the common goal of fostering collaboration among DSG, members of the administration and various campus organizations. The vice president for student affairs oversees all programs and facilities that affect students. The candidates, all senators, said they hope to make DSG a well-oiled machine, emphasizing the importance of communication and accountability, especially at the top tiers of the student group. “When I joined the organization, I saw things that I could change,” said Hoang. “A lot of senators come into DSG without a lot of experience. People are not training them or investing time in them.”

In response, Hoang proposed a mentoring program for incoming senators to minimize the period of inactivity following their election. She said the program will

help senators better represent their constituents, and she added that if the upper echelons of an organization run smoothly, the lower levels will do the same. As subcommittee chair of Student Affairs, Hoang has trained incoming senators, has worked with administrators and has built relationships with a variety of student groups on campus. In her platform, Hoang focused on holding senators accountable to officers, dedicating the plasma televisions to a slide show of upcoming events, educating students about insurance options and encouraging students to run for DSG positions. “How can DSG represent the constituents if they are all from the same place?” she said.

Speakers use humor to discuss sexual assault Ashley Dean THE CHRONICLE

Laughter may not be considered a typical response to sexual assault, but Kelly Addington and Rebecca Tieder are not your typical speakers, and Monday night’s “Talking About It” was'not a typical speech. The two women—who visit college campuses to share their personal experiences with date rape and the subsequent healing process —gave the keynote address for Sexual Assault Prevention Week. “It’s a story about friendship, about college and about the best years of our life,” Tieder said. “But it’s also a story about rape.” Tieder began the evening on a light note. “Please don’t think Kelly and I are here to tell you sex is wrong or sex is evil,” she said. “All we really want for you guys is to have great sex... in a completely nonviolent way.” When the two women were students and best friends at the University of West Florida, Addington was the victim of date rape. “It all led back to that weekend when the man I was dadng spent the night,” she said. Even now, nearly a decade later, Addington does not have any memories from that evening. She does not know if she was drugged, if she blacked out from consuming too much alcohol or if she has repressed memories of the event. “The last thing I remember is turning to him and saying, T don’t feel good. I’m going to be sick and I need to go to sleep,”’ Addington said. She began to have nightmares and night sweats, which she attributed to stress. Addington had not had sex for six

Despite years of emotional turmoil, she is now able to joke about what happened. “Either there was a second Jesus coming into the world and I was part of the immaculate conception, or I was sexually assaulted,” Addington said. She eventually had a miscarriage, but the women decided to share their experiences with college students nationwide.

“We perceived rape as something that happens to girls who make stupid choices,” Tieder said. However, after Addington was raped, both women realized this stereotype did not hold true, and anyone is susceptible to sexual assault. “I wouldn’t be your friend if I didn’t tell you every single one of you is at risk,” Tieder said to those present. In addition to discussing their personal experiences with sexual assault, Addington and Tieder offered tips to help survivors. “The most important thing that I can say as a survivor to you all is to do whatever you

can to make yourself whole again,” Addington said. Tieder added that it is necessary to accept that you cannot turn back the clock and to acknowledge what you would do differendy going forward. They stressed the importance of taking initiative in the fight against sexual assault. “If we’re not being proactive, we’re part of the problem,” said Tieder. She added that students are the most powerful people on a college campus. Addington and Tieder were picked to give the keynote address in part because of their unique, humorous speaking style, said Crystal-Fair Melbourne, program coordinator for the sexual assault support services at the Women’s Center. “They are very relatable,” Melbourne explained. The small group of approximately 40 attendees seemed to agree, as laughter rang throughout Von Canon during the majority of the speech. “I thought it was very original,” senior Laura Serwer said. Seniors Becca Bonagura, a sexual harassment and rape prevention peer educator, and Becky Logsdon, an audience member, commented on the importance of the issues addressed Monday evening. “We don’t really focus on the systemic problem that allows stereotypical types of rape and date rape to occur,” Bonagura said. She added that sexual assault is not talked about enough on campus. “I think in light of what’s happened recendy with the lacrosse incident, it made everyone realize it happens in your own backyard,” Serwer said, referring to a recent alleged rape involving the men’s lacrosse team.

DSG: Cl from page 3 through activities such as automechanic or cooking classes that students and employees can take together. Bowes also said DSG needs to take a stronger stand defending student interests. When Alcohol Law Enforcement officials “bullied and scared students” when they cited many early in the fall semester, Bowes said DSG’s Office of Community Interaction should have lobbied and defended student interests. Instead, he said it was the ACLU under his leadership that facilitated dialogue and worked to report officer abuses. Bowes said he feels he can continue doing this through the Community Interaction Committee. Jordan Giordano is currently a senator with experience working within the organization. He said he can use this experience to make much-needed progress on the Community Interaction Committee. He has also worked to create legislation to extend the reading period for final exams and to create a website that provides more information about East Campus residence halls for incoming freshmen. This year he also sat on ICC as part of the Young Trustee selection process. He said his experiences on the council have led him to believe ICC bylaws need revision in order to encourage better attendance. If elected—and thus chosen to chair ICC—he hopes to make it a more active organization on campus. Giordano said he would help improve Duke-Durham relations by “making the community more involved with what is

happening on our campus.” He hopes to achieve this by inviting

community members to on-campusvcultural and art events and by creating off-campus bus routes. Giordanoalso believes it is important to open up discussion between community members, DSC and student residents of off-campus houses. He hopes to achieve a better social scene both on and off campus by working to keep tailgate and to keep off-East housing available. As a transfer student from New York University, Gross came to Duke with a dif-

ferent perspective “I transferred to Duke because NYU lacked a community,” he said. “The sense of community at Duke is great but could be even better,” Gross said. Gross pointed out he is the only upperclassman running for the position who has already served on the Community Interaction Committee. Gross said there have been hundreds of millions of dollars worth of development taking place in Durham of which Duke is failing to take advantage. He cited the American Tobacco Complex—a large collection of up-scale eateries and stores—as a site which is underused by Duke students. In his platform, he proposes creating a joint venture with the ATC to provide free transportation from Duke campus, which he said would “be mutually beneficial.” Gross also wants to establish more co-op and internship programs with local industries and to encourage departments to develop more relevant curricula for employment after graduation. He also hopes to set up a media content website that allows students to download high-speed movie and music content for free, with the media companies earning revenue through advertising. Salwen said her experience tutoring students in Durham encouraged her to run for the Community Interaction position. “I saw just how much it helps these students to work with us,” she said. “I also see that there are very few opportunities at Duke for students to help the Durham community.” Salwen proposes volunteerism opportunities be promoted through an umbrella website which contains frequently updated information. She also hopes to encourage more students to volunteer in the community, pointing out that Duke was rated as having among the worst town-gown relations in the nation. “The only way to remedy this is to encourage students to go out into the community,” she said. All four candidates share several similar ideas, such as hosting another block party that encourages Duke students to go out to nearby vendors and securing off-East housing for students.

He noted that the conglomerate also claimed to have never made a profit at Duke in the past five years, which may have been a contributing factor in ARAMARK’s decision to rebid for the job. Senior Paige Sparkman, Duke Student Government’s vice president of student affairs, echoed Wallace’s sentiments. “I’m actually happy that the process will be a lot more open and a lot less political now that ARAMARK has taken it upon itself not to renew the contract,” she said.

next step in the selection is to allow each company in contime to create a comprehensive proposal of their plans for Duke dining, Wulforst said. “All five companies will be on campus for the next week to 10 days just doing reviews of all the operations,” Wulforst said. An “oversight” committee composed of undergraduate and graduate students, dining administrators and representatives from other University departments will then convene to debate the various options, he said. Wulforst expects a decision to be reached by the end of April. “I’m excited,” he said. “I feel like this could be a new beginning for our program.”

LACROSSE The Duke Community Standard adopted in 2003 was intended to encompass both social and academic aspects of student life. But until proven guilty, students accused of rape March 13 cannot be punished because they have not acted against the current policy. "Right now, they are not in violation of any established judicial policies, but they are in violation of these if they are proven guilty," said junior Jimmy Soni, chair of the Honor Council and a Chronicle columnist. Students and Durham residents have called for the use of the Community Standard as a means of breaking down the so-called "wall of silence" of the men's lacrosse team, members of which were allegedly involved in a rape. University officials, however, said students can only be punished for violations of specific policies. The alleged events would not be grounds for students to be brought before the Undergraduate Judicial Board, the body that hears major violations of University policy, said Judith Ruderman, vice provost for academic and administrative services. A clause in the Standard, which is signed by all freshmen as a condition of matriculation, reads, "I will conduct myself responsibly and honorably in all my activities as a Duke student." Although the Standard obligates students to report any instance of academic dishonesty, the reporting requirement does not extend beyond the academic sphere. Ruderman said it was not included because of worries about a glut of cases clogging the system. "I don'tknow the point of an honor code if no one is wiling to step forward," junior Christine James said at a protest Monday morning. "It should apply to all aspects of our life." In light of the recent events, the Community Standard may need to be reevaluated and adjusted to cover a wider range of infractions, Ruderman said. "I don't want to presume any guilt here, but if it were the case that students knew of something so grossly egregious and did nothing about it, I would like for the students themselves to say, 'This is wrong and let's broaden our policy,'" she said. —David Graham

SBI and told them we need to move as quickly as possible,” he said. The alleged crime occurred during a party at 610 N. Buchanan Blvd., a house leased by three members of the No. 2 men’s lacrosse team. The victim is reportedly a black single mother of two and a North Carolina Central University student. Officials are investigating the incident as first-degree forcible rape, common law robbery, first-degree kidnapping, first-degree sexual offense and felonious strangulation. The players have denied the accusations to administrators, Director of Athletics Joe Alieva said in a statement. John Burness, senior vice president for public affairs and government relations, said there are “two very different versions of what went on at the party.” DPD Public Information Officer Kammie Michael confirmed that no charges had been filed as of Monday evening. Administrators said they are awaiting results of the formal criminal investigation. The team forfeited two games after players acknowledged they hired dancers and participated in underage drinking at the party, activities Alieva said are “inconsistent with the values of Duke Athletics.” Racial tensions rah high across campus on the first day of classes after a weekend of national attention directed at the incident. More than 200 students, faculty and community members gathered for a “speak-out” in front of the Allen Building Monday morning. Participants stepped to the microphone to express outrage about the issues of gender, race and class surrounding the incident. The event marked the fourth demonstration in 48 hours. “This is a matter of white privilege,” senior Tiana Mack said. “When I read what was going on, it made me think about Jim Crow.... If these three culprits get away with it, it wilj prove to me that Duke does not honor the black woman’s body.” Some demonstrators wore T-shirts with slogans such as “Men’s Lacrosse? Not fine by me” and “Men’s Lax, Come Clean.” Senior Jay McKenna alluded to the widespread belief that the lacrosse players are not fully cooperating with the investigation. “The fact that this wall of silence has been constructed only adds to the mystery,

Protesters Monday don shirts urging the lacrosse team to break its silence about an alleged rape. which adds to the speculation,” he said, noting that he knows members of the team. Near the end of the speak-out, several participants called for an administrator to address the crowd. “Is no one going to come out here and say something?” junior Malik Burnett asked, gesturing toward the Allen Building, where many administrators work. “We’ve been here for an hour. I know you hear us.” Several administrators, including Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta and Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students Sue Wasiolek, observed at least part of the demonstration. “That would not have been a comfortable setting for me to speak,” Wasiolek said, adding that it would have been inappropriate for her to voice her opinions because those views could be construed as the University’s position. Sophomore Darby McEvoy, who stood at the back of the rally, said the demonstrators may have been too quick to blame the team. “Rape is a very heavy, heavy charge to be accused of,” he said, adding that one of his best friends is on the lacrosse team. “I’ll change my mind the day the DNA tests come back, but right now it’s one person’s word versus another.” Police collected DNA after securing a non-testimonial order, which entities law enforcement officials to take physical evidence such as fingerprints, photographs and saliva samples from those subject to the order, but not to conduct interviews.

Police collected biological evidence from the alleged victim of the crime in the form of vaginal, oral and anal swabs. They will compare the samples from the lacrosse team to evidence collected in the rape kit. To secure an NTO, police must demonstrate probable cause that a crime has been committed and show there is reasonable suspicion that the person subject to the order committed the crime. “It’s not especially common to take such a large sample, but it’s not common to have a well-defined group of people in the suspect pool,” Nifong said. “Here, we were able to identify assailants as Caucasian members of the lacrosse team.” Attorney Tom Loflin said he is suspicious of the validity ofany evidence collected from the 46 athletes. “You’ve got a fishing expedition where 46 people—without individualized suspicion focusing on any one of them—are being subjected to a very extreme violation of privacy.... Not everyone in that pool was at the party,” he said. “Should they hit a home run with any of these samples, then that person is going to have a very, very strong motion to suppress the evidence. “Any lawyer worth his salt is going to tell them not to talk to the police or the press or anybody until this case shakes out,” he said. Attorney Robert Ekstrand, of Ekstrand & Ekstrand, LLP, confirmed that he is representing “virtually all” of the athletes. Sarah Kwok and Steve Veres contributed to this story.

from St. Louis Deane’s mother, Lynn Deane, said the controversy makes her hesitant to send her daughter to Duke. “As a parent, it doesn’t bode well for the school,” she said. “When you’re only going to visit the most elite schools—we’re looking at Princeton, Stanford and Duke —it’s very disappointing.” Her eighth-grade son Thomas traveled with the family to Duke, hoping to watch Saturday’s forfeited lacrosse game against Georgetown University. He brought his lacrosse stick with him, and Monday afternoon he was passing a ball with a friend in front of the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. “I was really looking forward to going to the game, but they probably should have forfeited,” Thomas Deane said. “I heard they had strippers and underage drinking.” As of Monday, Dean of Undergraduate Admissions Christoph Guttentag said no parents or prospective students had talked to him about the investigation. He added that “it is too early to tell” whether the incident will have a negative effect on Duke’s admissions yield. “Much will depend on what happens in the next several days and several weeks,” Guttentag said. “I think the University’s response to whatever we find out will have the greatest effect on the perceptions and decisions of students we have admitted and their families.” Guttentagadded that he is planning to speak to all tour guides about the controversy and that admissions officers have already begun to address the situation in their information sessions. “My tour group didn’t seem to know about it at all until we passed the protests

Swaniker said once she explained the incident to parents, their worries seemed to diminish. “I thought the reaction was going to be more negative,” she added. “One parent was just impressed by the students’ ability to rally around a cause they cared about so quickly.” Guttentag said he hopes prospective students and their families understand the incident is not representative of the entire University.

“I’d be disappointed if a small number of individuals are perceived to reflect the community as a whole,” he added. “This is not typical of the behavior ofmembers of the Duke community and is not condoned by the Duke community.” Brett Silverman, a high school sophomore from Santa Barbara, Calif., said he does not think the accusations reflect larger social problems at Duke. “It has affected the way I thought about people, but it hasn’t affected whether I would apply here or not,” he said.

3,548 undergraduates. Although he closed the server in response to a formal warning from the Office ofJudicial Affairs, Wolf used the database as an example of what he has already done for students. “I can’t say that I object to being elected as DSG President because I gave tangible things to the student body because that’s what a DSG president is supposed to do,” Wolf said. “I can make promises in the context of having accomplished things without DSG resources.” Wolf said the role of a good DSG president should be translating student will into action. He described his proactive, studentoriented approach as the overriding aspect ofhis platform, “Every candidate has good ideas,” he said. “I don’t believe that it’s the job of the DSG president to spell out what the students want. It’s to spell out what the students want and act on it.” Wolf’s platform includes increasing DSG’s spending power by obtaining donations and grants and by working directly with members of the administration to ensure that all rules and regulations reflect the best interests of students. “Students want what they want whether it’s tailgating, or course evaluations, or a longer reading period, or cheap housing, or any number of things,” Wolf said. He added that he would like the University to subscribe to a legal alternative to his movie server, which students could access through a monthly fee of between two and five dollars.

what it needs to do to get recommendations,” Wolf said. “They’re looking at their own futures.” Wolf added that as a junior, he would be more accountable for his actions. “Whatever I do as DSG president, I’m going to have to live with it for my next year at Duke,” he said. If elected, Wolf said he hopes to hold administrators to this same level of “public accountability.” He added that his work as a Chronicle columnist has allowed him to establish relationships with several key University figures that would help to foster this objective. “I have a very special, and in some sense unique, relationship with the administration,” he said. “I’ll often times just go talk to them about random things. I don’t feel afraid to criticize them, and I think they respect that.”

He said he didn’t know details of the other hijackings set for that day except that planes were to be flown into the twin towers of the World Trade Center. Zerkin asked if he knew who else would be on his plane. “Richard Reid. The other crew members were not definite,” Moussaoui replied, referring to a man he had met in the 1990 at London’s Finsbury Park mosque, where Islamic fundamentalists recruited followers. On Dec. 22, 2001, Reid was subdued by passengers aboard American Airlines Flight 63 from Paris to Miami when he attempted to detonate a bomb in his shoe. That plane landed safely in Boston. Reid later pleaded guilty and was sentenced to life in prison. This account by Moussaoui diverged sharply from his previous statements, including his confession when pleading guilty last April. For three years, he has said he had no involvement in the Sept. 11 plot. Instead, he has said he was taking pilot lessons in Minnesota to fly a 747 jetliner into the White House at a later date if the United States refused to release a radical Egyptian sheik imprisoned for separate convictions. Former federal prosecutor Preston Burton said in an interview that Moussaoui was admitting “far more individual involvement than he had made before.” Now in private practice in Washington, Burton called it “a stunning revelation that would help prosecutors rather than him.” On cross-examination, prosecutor Rob Spencer underlined that Moussaoui was now saying his attack was to be part of the Sept. 11 plot.

She noted that she was running for the vice presidential position in order to enact greater change in DSG. Otherwise, she would have been content with running for Senate again. “We need to work towards a vision of Duke that we think is the best,” McGannon said. “You can accomplish a lot of tangible roles as a senator, but as a vice president you have the ability to set the agenda.” Strasser said he has left his mark on many student organizations during his three years at Duke. While in DSG, he has written a large amount of legislation including the No-Confidence resolution with ARAMARK, Corp., Duke University Student Dining Advisory Committee’s freshman equivalence program, allowance of tipping on points at the Armadillo Grill and legislation for displaced freshmen students. Strasser said he wants to create a student affairs subcommittee injudicial Affairs to analyze and refine the hearing process and provide pamphlets about Alcohol Law Enforcement to distribute during freshman orientation. Next year, Strasser said he hopes to establish regular meetings between DUSDAC and DSG for communicative purposes. “I believe in the synthesis of experience, enthusiasm and enterprise,” Strasser said. “Enthusiasm breeds more enthusiasm. The problem with DSG this year was apathy.”

The sophomore said he hopes to make student affairs administrators more accountable for their actions by making them come before the student body and DSG at least once a semester. “I am genuinely interested in working with students to effect change,” Kornfeld said. “I like to meet and talk with everybody that I can and have the ability to work with students to get things done.” Kornfeld proposed using the plasma televisions across campus to garner revenue from businesses and to advertise events better. He also said he also wants to devise an equitable e-mail system to ensure all student groups on campus are entitled to one mass e-mail per semester. McGannon, who has been a senator for only a semester, said she has been on DSG long enough to understand how it functions but also long enough to know its faults. “I am frustrated with how DSG is currently operating,” she said. “I want to make it more accessible to students, to be the advocate of the students.” McGannon proposed to put an open forum and a “Results Tracker” that follows the results of approved legislation on DSG’s website. “I don’t want to wait for The Chronicle to write something to know that something is wrong,” she said.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Over the past decade, the women’s basketball team has elevated itself to elite status by advancing to the Sweet 16 nine consecutive seasons and the Regional finals seven of those nine years. In order to make their fourth trip to the Final Four and continue their drive to win that elusive first National Championship, the Blue Devils (29-3) will have to go through one of the few programs that has had even more success Connecticut. The Huskies (32-4), one season removed from three consecutive National Championships, have been the benchmark in women’s college basketball over the last 15 seasons by winning five national tides. The two programs will meet for the first time in NCAA Tournament play Tuesday night at 9 p.m. at the Bridgeport Arena at Harbor Yard with a trip to the Final Four on the line. A win would send Duke to the Final Four for the first time since 2003. The Blue Devils have lost in the Regional Final in each of the last two seasons —Duke was upset by No. 7 Minnesota in 2004 and fell to top-seeded LSU last season. “The knock on our program has been that we haven’t had a National Championship,” senior Monique Currie said. “We’ve tasted what it’s like to be close. From the beginning of the season, we’ve had a goal to win the National Championship and I think we’re on the right track to make those dreams come true.” This year, the Blue Devils enter the Regional final coming off three straight blowout wins. Duke has defeated all three of its opponents in the tournament so far by at least 25 points. To keep the momentum alive, the Blue Devils will not only have to beat Connecticut but will have to do it in the Huskies’ backyard in Bridgeport —a mere 80 miles from the school’s home in Storrs. Duke will call on its big-game experience—honed with road victories at Tennessee last season and a stirring come-from-behind —

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Brittany Hunter came to Duke as a highly-touted freshman in 2003, but tore her lateral meniscus against Purdue in late November in just her third game as a Blue Devil. The 6-foot-3 forward never completely regained her health that season, but still finished the year averaging 8.1 points and 4.9 rebounds per contest in 27 games of action. Unhappy with the treatment she was receiving for her injury and her situation at Duke, the Columbus, Ohio, native decided to transfer to Connecticut. And after sitting out last season due to NCAA regulations, Hunter has become a

role player for the Huskies this year, averaging almost 10 minutes of playing time and scoring 5.1 points per game. “I think the whole thing was, you get hurt, and you don’t know if you’re going to play again, it’s a lot of emotion,” Hunter said. “There was not just one thing I was upset about, I was just generally mad.” Since Hunter transferred, Duke and UConn have yet to face each other—and with a trip to the Final Four in Boston on the line, the stakes for tonight’s matchup have risen to new heights.

Even after losing two key contributors from last year’s squad—Daniel Ewing to graduation and Shavlik Randolph to the NBA Draft—Duke was expected to be the cream of the national crop, led by two returning All-Americans, J.J. Redick and Shelden Williams. Before the season, national commentator Seth Davis went so far as to say, “The other people who will not pick Duke No. 1 are people who just want to be different.” Redick told Sports Illustrated before TIAN, QINZHENG/THE CHRONICLE the season began that only a National Title would do.

And the Associated Press honored them with their selection to the All-America team Monday. Redick, who became the first repeat first team selection since former Blue Devil Jason Williams did it in 2001 and 2002, was a unanimous selection along with Gonzaga’s Adam Morrison. Joining Redick, Williams and Morrison were Villanova’s Randy Foye and Washington’s Brandon Roy. “Both JJ. and Shelden are deserving of this honor,” head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “They have produced on the court at a high level all season, and throughout their entire careers at Duke. They both understand that individual awards like this come about as a result of throwing themselves into what is important for our team.” In leading the Blue Devils to the ACC regular-season and Tournament titles and their ninth straight Sweet 16 appearance, Duke’s duo set several individual records. Redick became the NCAA’s most prolific three-point shooter and also moved into first place on both Duke and the ACC’s alltime scoring charts. He averaged 27.4 points per game—the highest average in school history—and also made 42.1 percent of his three-point shots. The ACC’s Defensive Player of the Year, Williams blocked 137 shots this season, passing Mike Gminski on the school’s blocks list. He also passed Gminski to set Duke’s rebounding mark, and averaged a double-double for the second consecutive season.

from page 11

Instead, the Blue Devils’ most recent players are shorter, slower and less defiant of gravity. Coming into this year, I thought the incoming freshmen would bring some athleticism to solve the Blue Devils’ athletic woes. Josh Mcßoberts had finished second in the high school slam dunk contest, and Greg Paulus was the highest-rated quarterback in the country. So these guys must be big-time athletes, right? Wrong. Mcßoberts is great at throwing the ball down with incredible force, but he lacks the quick leaping ability to consistently block shots and scare away defenders. Plus, quick lateral movement is not part of the Mcßoberts vocabulary, and this hurts in the low post on both sides of the ball. In summation, he is not quick, which is kind of important in basketball. And Paulus? My buddies and I were shocked when we realized he lacks athleticism. It seems implausible that a two-sport star could be undersized with mediocre speed and strength, but Paulus has proven this to be possible. He can handle the ball well and thread the needle once or twice a game, but Duke has a problem when its point guard can’t keep up with the other team’s point guard. When we look at the rest of the squad, each contributor not called “The Landlord” has an athletic Achilles’ heel. Sean Dockery, while quick and coordinated, lacks strength, vision and innate athletic confidence. DeMarcus Nelson, who is strong and quick with great leaping ability, lacks the necessary ball-handling coordination to penetrate effectively. JJ. Redick relies almost exclusively on his coordination, as speed, size and ups are not in his player profile. And Lee Melchionni?There’s a reason he worked at a bank last summer. In Duke’s four losses—Georgetown, Florida State, UNC and LSU —it was impossible not to notice the Blue Devils’ lack of athleticism. Each of those teams killed Duke with one, two or many incredible athletes athleticism that not even Mike Krzyzewski or his great system could overcome. What the Blue Devils need is Tyrus Thomas or Joakim Noah, and what we need is for Coach K to start grabbing them off the assembly line.

M. BBALL from page 12 Redick’s record-breaking run late in the season also stole headlines from the team’s accomplishments. In a span of two weeks, the senior broke the NCAA threepoint record, as well as the Duke and ACC career scoring records. “I’m proud of my team, obviously, their 32 wins and four losses,” Krzyzewski said. “They have won championships and [Redick and Williams] have been two of the best players I have ever coached.

ways represented me, our program, and our school and themselves in the best possible manner.” Even though the Blue Devils will lose four large contributors from the senior class, a strong incoming class and the continued development of this year’s five-player freshman class makes next year’s lineup strong again. Much of those expectations, however, will depend on the return of freshman Josh Mcßoberts. Mcßoberts has been projected as a first-round pick if he were to leave after this year, but the freshman said after Duke’s loss to LSU that he plans to return for his sophomore season. “They are a great group of guys and I expect a lot from them in the next year and the upcoming years,” Williams said ofhis younger teammates.

THE GHRONICL,E

W. BBALL from page 11 win

HUNTER from page 11

UConn in 2004—to keep the crowd

out of the game.

“It’s not like this is going to be the first time facing this,” sophomore guard Wanisha Smith said. “It’s not a new experience for us, and I think we’re well-equipped. I think it’s going to be an exciting game whether the fans are for us or against us.” UConn has taken advantage of playing close to home in the NCAA Tournament before. In 2004, the second-seeded Huskies knocked off No. 1 Penn State in Hartford en route to its third straight National Championship. UConn has also won several sub-regional games on its home floor in Storrs over the past decade. “I think too much is made of the crowd,” Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma said. “The crowd’s going to be great. They’re going to be loud, they’re going to be enthusiastic because that’s how the people in this area are. They love basketball and they turn out more so than in any other region in the country. But when you’re supposed to win, you win, whether you’re home, on the road, on a neutral court.” Duke will also have to handle UConn wing Barbara Turner, who scored 31 points Sunday night against Georgia, including a game-winning fadeaway three-pointer with 1.8 seconds remaining. Turner’s 24 points per game in the Tournament nearly doubles her season average of 12.4. The Blue Devils will try to bother the senior in the same way they held Michigan State star Liz Shimek to just five points Sunday night. ‘You just have to play smart defense,” senior Mistie Williams said. “[Turner’s] just a tremendous player. I think [Sunday] night just showed that she’s really capable of dominating an entire game. You just have to play smart defense, not get in early foul trouble, box her out and know where she is at all times.”

JIANGHAI HO/THE CHRONICLE

Senior MistieWilliams and theBlue Devils have lost in the Elite Eight the past two seasons. Duke eagerly awaits the challenge of playing the Huskies in their home state and returning to college basketball’s promised land.

“It’s nice to beat someone at home, and I guess they’re as close to home as anybody,” Currie said. “We’re looking forward to hearing stunned silence.”

have more 'mixed emotions about the meeting, but she is only focused on getting her new teammates into the Final Four. “It’s been so long now it seems that everything that’s happened with my knee, it’s happened, it’s over with,” Hunter said. “I’ve had surgery and I’ve recovered and I’m playing now. I think if this were a regular season [game] my feelings may be a little bit different, but the only meaning I have for this game right now is getting to the Final Four.” In Durham, Hunter became very close with some of her Blue Devil teammates, especially Junior center Alison Bales, who came to Duke in the same recruiting class. Hunter plans to visit Bales this summer and the two said they talk on the phone on a very regular basis. “I was disappointed she transferred, but just because we were such close friends and she was the only girl that came in with me—the two of us were the freshman class together,” Bales said. “She made a good decision for her.” The UConn forward added that she was very satisfied with her decision to leave Durham for Storrs, but that she still maintains close ties with Bales, Monique Currie and even sophomore Wanisha Smith who was not a teammate of Hunter’s at Duke. Smith, who joined the Blue Devils after the team made its last Final Four in 2003, said she will put her friendship with Hunter aside tonight, and try to earn Duke a trip to Boston, keeping its National Title hopes alive. “When you go into a basketball game, you don’t look at it as a friendship, you look at it like a battle between you and your opponent,” Smith said. “After the game we’ll be friends and will talk on the phone, but during the game we’re going to go head-to-head.”

our own professors? These informal analyses compel us to ask: What is it about Duke that renders our invitations to speak not a exclusively conferred honor, but rather, an unattractive burden? Perhaps news of our hosting other, disorganized speeches have preceded our request (call it the Colin Powell effect). Perhaps our top list of speakers was simply too ambitious. Oprah Winfrey, Meryl Streep and Sandra Day O’Connor? Whatever the reason, and while we look forward to hearing the words of the ever-eloquent professor emeritus May 14, we hope next year, Reynolds Price or Erwin Chermerinsky is not ascending the podium, 3-by-5 cards in hand.

Editor’s note: The Chronicle is printing student groups’ endorsements of candidates for Duke Student Government’s Executive Board today and Wednesday. DPU endorsement The Duke Political Union Board of Governors is proud to announce its endorsements for the 2006 Duke Student Government elections. These endorsements represent the opinions of the leadership of the Political Union and not the membership at large. We have examined these candidates based on their platforms, enthusiasm and accomplishments. The leaders we have selected all demonstrate knowledge of DSG procedures, have extensive experience in campus leadership, and have shown commitment to fostering political discussion on campus. For the office of DSG president, the Duke Political Union endorses Remington Kendall, who has shown a commitment to campus improvement and, ever the charismatic leader, makes an active effort to connect with students. For the office of executive vice president, we endorse Joe Fore, whose experience with DSG internal affairs is crucial for this position and for succeeding in his platform goals of reform and communication. For the office of vice president of student affairs, we endorse Lee TCornfeld, whose enthusiasm will surely lead to the

invention and completion of great ideas that will aid students in all facets of Duke life. For the office of vice president of community interaction, we endorse Daniel Bowes who has shown dedication to bettering both Duke and the larger Durham community. He has proven that he has the capacity to put his plans into action and we do not doubt that his ideas for interaction between the Duke and Durham communities will be successful. For the office of vice president of athletics and campus services, we endorse David Snider whose knowledge and experience will allow him to accomplish a lot for the student body and campus as a whole. Amy Levenberg Trinity ’O7 VP of Communications, Duke Political Union Panhellenic endorsement With only three women running for Duke Student Government positions, it is important that female students are well represented on next year’s DSG executive board. With this in mind, Panhellenic Association executive board would like to announce the following endorsements: For president, we endorse Hasnain Zaidi. Though Zaidi is a sophomore, he has a strong passion for student issues at Duke and would serve the undergraduate population by furthering connections among student organizations. For executive vice president,

we endorse Joe Fore. Fore has tremendous experience and a professional nature that would serve him well in this capacity. For vice president of student affairs, we endorse Maggie McGannon. As the only Panhellenic woman running, McGannon would serve as a voice for of more our community than 1,200 undergraduates. For vice president ofcommunity interaction, we endorse Jason Gross. He has solid DSG experience and possesses the leadership skills to make sure ICC truly connects the major student organizations at Duke. For vice president of academic affairs, we endorse Jimmy Soni. He has strong vision and the diligence to act on it. Furthermore, Soni is already focused on important issues including undergraduate research and women in science. For vice president of athletic and campus services, we endorse David Snider. Through his previous experience in student government, Snider has demonstrated that he is results-oriented, an important facet for someone in this role. The leadership of the Panhellenic Association feels confident that these students will fill their respective positions effectively and work strongly toward further unification of the undergraduate population. Chrissie Gorman Trinity ’O7 President, Duke Panhellenic Association

THE CHRONICLE

All in on DSG Almost

all the candidates for DSG executive positions this year are

qualified and could do a great job in the positions they’re running for. They can all sell themselves, and I’m not here to do that

for them I’m also not here to tell you who to vote for. I strongly encourage you to research the candidates and make a decision on your own. But here I’ll explain what I think each candidate’s strengths and weaknesses are —and name them as an ace, a joker or crapshoot. Student Affairs oliTahoth IUQISIII WDclfl rnrlicill Tina Hoang: ace. Hoang has the best Do SomethinG track record of any of the candidates. She is engaged during senate meetings and really works to make things happen. Hoang has unique ideas, but they sometimes affect too small a population. She doesn’t want to overhaul DSG, but she would definitely accomplish things in the current configuration and in any future structure. Lee Komfeld: joker. Kornfeld’s hackeneyed agenda includes challenging the administration, advertising student events with online tools and plasma screens, changing dining (read: ARAMARK) and improving communication between DSG and students. Komfeld strikes me as a resume-builder and lacks the passion of Hoang and McGannon. Maggie McGannon: ace. A newbie to DSG, McGannon sees lots of problems and has the drive to make changes. She says she won’t be afraid to “hound administrators.” Her truly original ideas include an online “results tracker” to show how DSG acts on legislation. She was an outsider until this semester and would bring a nice perspective to the position. Ryan Strasser: joker. A three-year veteran of DSG and the SA committee, Strasser is good at writing legislation and then letting it float through administrators’ offices. His solution for perceived problems with the Judicial Affairs committee is to form a subcommittee to analyze it. He preaches change but is so firmly molded in the form of a DSG senator that he would bring nothing new or different to SA. Athletics and Campus Services David Melton: crapshoot. Safety is his focus—he doesn’t seem to have a full perspective of the ACS issues. He insightfully says effort is the biggest factor in how effective DSG can be—but he may be too far extended already to give his best effort. David Snider: crapshoot. Snider has lots of things to his credit, like the TVs in Wilson Gym and newly opened parking lots, but his modus operandi is one that doesn’t lend itself to the transparency and accountability that so many candidates are calling for this year. Still, he does get things done. Executive Vice President Damjan DeNoble: joker. While outsiders are generally favored because they haven’t been corrupted by the DSG system, EVP is the one office that requires an insider. DeNoble understands that DSG must be “combative and conciliatory” with the administration, but his lack of experience kills him. George Fleming: ace. Fleming says he’ll be controversial if elected, and I believe him. He’s been stepped on and ignored as president pro tempore, and his enthusiasm for the EVP position would mean his influence would extend into many meeting rooms besides DSG’s. JoeFore: crapshoot. He pitches his deal like a used car salesman. Fore says he wants to focus on communication and reform and is open to completely rehauling DSG, but he has always put on a good show. He might be a good disciplinarian. Community Interaction DanielBowes: ace. Bowes is intent on making the Intercommunity Council a power, and he’s ready to commit the time to make it so. He also recognizes the disconnect between Duke and Durham and has ideas to bring together students and employees. Bowes has passion and is good about not alienating other groups. Jordan Giordano: ace. He’s young, but Giordano already has more experience than others in the Cl race. He has done good things in DSG (e.g., legislation on displaced Katrina students), wants ICC to play a bigger role and knows how to milk the proper channels for results. Jason Gross: joker. Anytime someone seriously calls to bring kegs back to the quad, it’s a bad sign—given both its infeasibility and the fact that it’s not within Cl’s purview. I can’t even recall a time he’s spoken up in a senate meeting this year. Maya Salwen: crapshoot. Salwen is enthusiastic and understands the role of publicizing local events and DSG decisions but unfortunately doesn’t understand the importance of liaising with the administration. She has no real experience in a similar position, either. Academic Affairs Mark Jelley: joker. Jelley was often late to or absent from Senate meetings this year, and he wasn’t exactly proactive as Bassett dorm president last year (believe me, I lived there). His approaches to academic freedom, course evaluations and advising are stale. Jimmy Soni: crapshoot. Sqni is definitely passionate about academic affairs, but he may be overextended as is (chair of the Honor Council, chair of the Duke Political Union and a Chronicle columnist) and not give the position his full attention. Elizabeth Rudisill is a Trinity sophomore. Today’s column is the first in a twopart series in anticipation of Thursday’s DSG elections.
