For several months, one of Duke’s most famous employees—men’s basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski—remained silent about the controversy surrounding the men’s lacrosse team. He finally spoke out Tuesday morning during his annual summer press conference, calling this past spring the most “trying” time he has seen in his 26 years at the University. “If you are going to be here for the long run, you are going to have trying times,” Krzyzewski said. “Behind the scenes, I have tried to be very supportive of our athletic department, the coaches, the players, our president and the board of trustees.” Krzyzewski offered support, especially to former men’s lacrosse head coach Mike Pressler, who resigned April 5. The Presslers and the Krzyzewskis have been close family friends for a long time, and Krzyzewski said he was not sure what Pressler had done wrong. Pressler also broke his silence with an interview that appeared in Wednesday’s issue of Sports Illustrated. “It’s on the record: Any time I’d been aware of something, I took care of it,” Pressler told SI. “But the administration felt that wasn’t going to be the case. For me to buck that would not be in the best interest of those 47 kids and all the alumni. Take a bullet? I’d do it again.” SEE COACH K ON PAGE 16

After two visits to campus du past two years, Foran said Duke ronment was just what she from a college. “I liked the feel of the campus and it just seemed like a great group of kids,” Foran said. “They were all nice, bright people, so I wasn’t that worried about [the social scene].” An article in the June 15 issue of Rolling Stone magazine entitled, “Sex and Scandal at Duke,” however, raised quesf e she tions for Foran about the sock was about to enter.

Gang charged in heroin deaths
Bush faces protests in visit to Vienna by
Terence Hunt
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
President George VIENNA, Austria W. Bush won solid European support Wednesday for his handling of escalating nuclear crises with North Korea and Iran but was challenged over the Iraq war, the U.S. prison camp in Cuba and rising antiAmerican sentiment. “That’s absurd,” Bush snapped at a news conference in response to an assertion that the United States was regarded as the biggest threat to global security. “We’ll defend ourselves, but at the same time we’re actively working with our partners to spread peace and democracy.”
Unbidden, Austrian Chancellor Wolfgang Schuessel rose with an impassioned defense that seemed to surprise the president. “I think it’s grotesque to say that America is a threat to the peace in the world compared with North Korea, Iran, a lot of countries,” Schuessel said. Europe would not enjoy peace and prosperity if not for U.S. help after World War 11, he said. “We should be fair from the other side of the Atlantic,” Schuessel said. “We should understand what Sept. 11 meant to the American people.” But the chancellor also prodded Bush. “We can only have a victory in the fight against terror if we don’t undermine our
common values,” Schuessel said. “It can never be a victory, a credible victory over terrorists if we give up our values: democracy, rule of law, individual rights.” Bush came here for the annual summit of the United States and the 25-nation European Union at a time when favorable opinions of the U.S. have fallen across Europe. About 1,200 students chanting “Bush Go Home!” marched through Vienna to a church square not far from Hofburg Palace where the leaders met. They were led by Cindy Sheehan, who lost her son in Iraq and energized the anti-war movement a year ago with a monthlong protest outside Bush’s Texas ranch.
7 Marines charged with murder by
Thomas Watkins
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. Seven Marines and a Navy corpsman were charged Wednesday with premeditated murder in the shooting death of an Iraqi man who was pulled from his home and shot while U.S. troops hunted for insurgents. They could face the death penalty if convicted. All eight also were charged with kidnapping. Other charges included conspiracy, larcenyand providing false official statements. Col. Stewart Navarre, chief of staff for Marine Corps Installations West, announced the charges at Camp Pendleton
Marine Corps base, where the eight are being held in individual cells for 23 hours each day. The troops are members of the Pendleton-based 3rd Battallion, sth Marines Regiment. The case is separate from the alleged killing by other Marines of 24 Iraqi civilians in the western Iraqi city ofHaditha last November. A pair of investigations related to that case are still under way and no criminal charges have been filed. Some or all of the troops being held at Camp Pendleton could face the death penalty, though Navarre said “it’s far too early to speculate on that right now.”
Lt. Gen. John Saltier, the senior commander at Pendleton, will decide whether and how to proceed with preliminary hearings known in the military] us ticesystem as Article 32 proceedings. That in turn couldlead to courts-martialfor some or all ofthe men. All eight have hired private attorneys and also have been given military defense lawyers. Maj. Haythan Faraj, who represents Marine Cpl. Trent Thomas, said he has yet to see details from the investigation but claimed that at least some of the information provided by the troops “was coerced out of them” by military investigators.
Members of a Chicago street gang were charged Wednesday with running a drug ring that sold crack cocaine, marijuana, heroin and fentanyl, a drug 80 times stronger than morphine. In recent months, fentanyl-laced heroin has been blamed for more than 200 overdose-related deaths.

2 attorneys may challenge Nifong by
Katherine Macllwaine THE CHRONICLE
In response to a recent wave of public concern, two potential challengers have placed District Attorney Mike Nifong’s controversial quest for re-election back in the limelight. Steve Monks, chairman of the Republican party for Durham County, and County CommissionerLewis Cheek, a Democrat, have both announced their intentions to seek spots on the ballot for November’s district attorney general election. “The folks here in Durham deserve a choice,” Monks said. “There’s a lot of question in the public at this time about the confidence in [Nifong] and his ability to do his duties.” Monks announced his interest Monday in challenging Nifong, following Cheek, who has not formally confirmed his candidacy but expressed interest in running last week. Nifong is currently running

Monks and Cheek must each collect signatures from 6,303 registered voters by June 30 in order to have their names on the November ballot. Regardless of their current party registrations, the challengers will be classified on the ballot as “unaffiliated” if they receive the necessary number of signatures, explained Mike Ashe, director of elections for Durham County.

CarolinaAstigarraga THE CHRONICLE
Students staying in Durham during the summer seem to agree—it’s time to live up to the second half of the “work hard, play hard” Duke ethic. Whether it is hanging out with fraternity or sorority members, attending Durham Bulls games, dining out in Chapel Hill, or frequenting off-campus hot spots like the Belmont Apartments pool, students are turning to a wide array of activities to keep themselves busy in between classes, research posts or Jobs. Although normally relatively empty during the summer months, the Bryan Center has been occupied by its fair share of students this week—sports fans enjoying the World Cup, the NBA Finals and the NHL Playoffs. Central Campus housing for
summer students means no communal televisions in commons rooms for students, leading-many students to go to the BC to get their fix of television shows or news. “I don’t really watch TV, but I have noticed it’s sort of different living in an apartment,” said sophomore Ruthie Chen. “I feel like I don’t really know what’s going on in the outside world.” Others like sophomore Allison Elia opt to catch up on seasons of TV shows or rent movies. “My roommate and I do a lot,” Elia said, “We decided to watch all the seasons of [the television series] ‘24’ to see what the hype was about.” For students hoping to escape the summertime tranquility on campus, weekend trips serve as a taste of life outside of Durham—at least for those who
have access to cars “I went white water rafting in Virginia, which is awesome,” said junior Mark Jelley, adding that he and his friends have traveled to Washington, D.C., and taken occasional trips to the beach “to get in some surfing.” Jelley said during the rigorous academic year such trips are not an option. “During the school year I never go anywhere. I’m a double physics and chemistry major, so that precludes me from any social life,” he joked. But students lacking cars said they often find themselves inconvenienced. “It would be a lot easier if I did have one just to get around—like for doing groceries and stuff,” Chen said. “There's only so much you can do on campus.” SEE SUMMER ON PAGE 7

Med Center releases strategic plans ED acquires helipad, new technology
Plans aim to integrate DUHS and Schools of Medicine and Nursing by
McGowan Jasten THE CHRONICLE
by
Duke University Medical Center administrators have finalized proposed strategic plans for the Duke University Hospital System, School of Medicine and School of Nursing. The proposal, which will be used as a guide for the next three to five years, stresses alignment among components of the Duke University Health System. Individual plans will be shared with faculty and relevant stakeholders throughout July and a unified plan is set to receive a final review by the Board of Trustees in December. “The overarching goal is to bring together these three components: Duke University Health System, the School of Nursing and the School of Medicine,” said Dr. Victor Dzau, chancellor for health affairs and president and CEO of Duke University Health System. “We hope to create a seamless continuum from scientific discovery to translation into care delivery to global health.” The plan emphasizes Dzau’s philosophy “global means local” as well. At the regional level, administrators hope to expand the availability and flow of care in Wake County and Durham County. Changes to maximize delivery of care in Durham County and expansion of services to serve the rapidly growing greater Wake County area are a major focal point. “Better integration of departments is necessary to maximize the quality of care,” said Molly O’Neill, chief strategic planning officer, vice president for business development and vice chancellor for Medical Center Integrated Planning. Proposed shifts in care delivery include rebuilding ambulatory structures to serve more outpatient needs as well as reorganizing multidisciplinary services—including cancer, musculoskeletal, vascular and pediatric care —to create a more “patient-

undergoing some big changes. The crane —the largest in the state and dubbed “Mighty Duke” by hospital renovation planners—was used to transfer heavy steel pads to the roof of the hospital’s new helipad—one of the many construction projects now underway at the hospital. Slated for completion in 2007, renovations are also being made to the hospital’s Emergency Department. These changes
In planning the frameworks for future DUHS construction projects, officials considered the integration of research and clinical trials. “We looked at zones between physical plans for research facilities and those for clinical facilities,” said Gordon Williams, vice chancellor for operations at DUMC and vice dean for administration and finance. Projects to be considered by administrators in upcoming years include clinical and research facilities for pediatric care
will include a new entry drive and ambulance bay, an expanded lobby, more areas devoted to intensively ill patients, triage and resuscitation rooms and new adult and pediatric patient rooms with state-ofthe-art technologies. Architects said the 20-plus-year-old ED can no longer accommodate the current volume of patients it receives. “The majority of patients admitted into the hospital go through the emergency room,” said Jeff Doucette, associate operating officer for emergency services, who referred to the ED as the “front door of the hospital.” Kathy Finch, clinical coordinator for the construction project, said the most exciting aspect of the renovation is the addition of technology “that not only meets but will exceed current standards”—including an X-ray machine and CT scanner in each ED patient room. In addition, each patient room will house its own computer with wireless Internet so doctors and nurses can keep up to date with medical records. The new renovations will also help the ED improve its ability to deal with large

In this way, DUHS can increase its focus on specialized care sought by patients from around the world. Reorganization of multidisciplinary services offered through DUH will ultimately involve the integration of departments within the medical center to make health care a “one-stop shop” for patients by altering traditional departmental structures to better serve practical needs, Dzau said, adding that these changes will likely have an impact at the national level.

Blue Devil alumni profile: The Report on Abrams Dan Abrams reflects on Duke, career BY SHREYA RAO THE CHRONICLE
Dan Abrams was convinced Duke was the school for him on his first visit to the campus. After graduating from Riverdale High School in New York City, he came to the University and served as vice president for student affairs for Duke Student Government. Abrams, Trinity ’BB, said his four years at the University set the foundation for the career that was to follow. “Duke, more than anything, helped teach me how to try to succeed in die world,” he said. “It’s not one class, or one professor, or one person that I met. It was Just in general my experience of growing up.” While at Duke, Abrams also anchored occasional newscasts aired on Cable 13, gathering small groups of students to put together the programs. In 1988, Abrams graduated cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in political science. He then attended Columbia Law School, graduated in 1992 and immediately became an anchor on the newly formed Court TV. “When Court TV started when I gradu*ated from law school, it was the perfect combination of the two things I was interested in,” he said. Nonetheless, Abrams left Court TV to join NBC as a general assignment correspondent for NBC News in 1997, covering everything from “hurricanes to plane crashes.” Soon enough, Abrams got the promotion he sought, becoming chief legal correspondent ofNBC News, while he served as a fill-in on Geraldo Rivera’s nighttime legal talk show on CNBC. “I loved it,” he said ofhis time filling in on Rivera’s show. “I had a great time, and SEE ABRAMS ON PAGE 8

Since rape allegations surrounding the men’s lacrosse team first arose in March, media pundits and audiences alike have taken turns weighing in on the story that has subjected Duke to national scrutiny. Dan Abrams—former news anchor for MSNBC’s “The Abrams Report” and recently named general manager of MSNBC—was no exception. As the case progressed, Abrams, Trinity ’BB, distinguished himself from many of his colleagues by-taking a stance in support of the team. Defending the image of his alma mater, Abrams became one of the most vocal critics of what he calls the “outrageous” rape charges and of District At-
torney Mike Nifong’s handling of the case. “A lot of people are writing in [to MSNBC] suggesting we are treating the Duke lacrosse rape investigation case with kid gloves in away we might not if it were another story,” he wrote in a blog April 12. “Well it’s true—this is different. So is it race? Is it gender? Is it because I’m a Duke graduate? No, no and no.” Abrams’ status as a Duke alumnus did not influence the way he covered the investigation, Abrams said. “The Duke bias here would be not to cover the story,” he said. “Of course I didn’t do that, I was [covering the story] on my show all the time.” Abrams said though people might be SEE ABRAMS DA ON PAGE 9

ROLLING STONE frcpage, to start getting concerned that Duke is going to be all about parties and drinking, and that it is not going to be a safe atmosphere,” Foran said. Foran has also become worried about the bad publicity Duke has been receiving in recent months. Many of her friends, she said, have started poking fun at her about the very public tribulations ofher newly chosen university. “I chose Duke because it was the highest-ranked school I got into,” Foran said. “Now I hear negative comments all the time.... My dentist said something about it—it’s everywhere.” University administrators acknowledged the existence of the social climate portrayed in the article but emphasized it only applied to a small segment of undergraduates. John Burness, senior vice president of government affairs and public relations, said the article may have a somewhat harmful impact on the public perception of the University. “If I had a concern, it would be that the public might generalize [the article] to the entire student body,” Burness said. “We may need to think about more aggressively focusing [our marketing] on what the many students at Duke do who aren’t sitting around trying to figure out which hottie is around the comer.” In an interview Wednesday, Reitman said she had originally included statistics about Duke’s demographics and other facts in the ardcle that made it clear that the students described were not representative of Duke’s entire social scene. “I had made it clear it wasn’t all of
Duke,” Reitman said of her earlier drafts. “I distinguished the group as a very small number of a larger whole.” Like Foran and her mother, many people have expressed concern over elements of the article. Sue Wasiolek,
dean of students, said she has received a large number ofe-mails regarding the story’s portrayal of the student body. “It has clearly gotten the attention of a lot of people —from students to parents, alumni and the outside world,” Wasiolek said. “What makes
“My dentist said something about it—it’s everywhere.” Meg Foran stories like that one misleading and dangerous is that they lead the reader to believe it is the norm.” Wasiolek is not alone in calling the article unrepresentative. On a message board on Rolling Stone’s website, junior Bronwyn Lewis wrote a 2,795-word criticism of the media’s portrayal ofDuke in the Rolling Stone piece and elsewhere that would likely comfort Foran. “I would submit that the number of Duke females who actively seek to better their social standing through sexual acts is stardingly small, the most insecure sliver of our female population that is still clinging to the idea that they need to measure their own selfworth by others’ opinions of them,” Lewis wrote. “This is certainly not the majority
-
of Duke females, in sororities or otherwise, and I would also suggest that this breed of insecure female just might be found on all college campuses. In fact, it might be found wherever there are females.” Even though the issue of Rolling Stone was published during the summer vacation, students read the article online and quickly passed it to each other through instant messages and e-mails. “I posted it oh my [AOL Instant Messenger] profile because I wanted lots of people to read it,” said junior Chelsea Salyer. “She presented [women at Duke] as sluts. I took away that we didn’t have any self-worth. It was more specific to sorority girls, which I’m not, but I still was offended by it.” A secondary aspect of the article that troubled some administrators was Reitman’s portrayals of parties that may have violated fraternity rush violations. Reitman describes a rush party “to which the choice women ofDuke come, attired as skimpily as possible, on instructions to ‘haze’ the fraternity’s freshman pledges.” Todd Adams, assistant dean of students, who is in charge of enforcing fraternity regulations, said the University will look deeper into some of the parties Reitman describes. “We need to find out just how accurate the portrayal was,” Adams said. “What was written may be one person’s take—some of it was -third-hand.” Adams also noted there was some confusion about the group responsible for the party in the article, which was described as being hosted by Delta SigmaPPa group that does not exist at Duke. There is a chapter of Delta Sigma Phi fraternity on campus, but no representatives could be reached for comment.
newsbriefs University highlighted for sustainability In the June issue of University Business magazine, Duke was chosen as one of the top 10 institutions in higher education as a leader in the national sustainability movement —including innovation and progress on green purchasing. Other institutions that made the topten list: Harvard University, the University of Pennsylvania, Carnegie Mellon University and Yale University. Duke leads worldwide HIV research team A consortium of researchers led by Duke scientists will pioneer an investigation into the effect of genetic differences on the way people respond to HIV. The Center for HIV/AIDS Vaccine Immunology —established at Duke in 2005 will provide the support for the consortium with a grant of up to $3OO million over seven years from the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. David Goldstein, director of the Center for Population Genomics and Pharmacogenetics and one of the core researchers, said they will use the genetic differences to approach more specialized vaccine development. The newly organized group of scientists from the United States, Europe and Australia will recruit 600 subjects for testing—the largest group of people assembled for such testing. —

The handbook provides information about policies, procedures and forms relevant to

There were no signs offorced entry and one of the students is unsure whether or not he locked the door when he left the apartment. Items reported missing include a Dell laptop valued at $1,200, a Kodak digital camera valued at $250 and a Panasonic digital camera valued at $3OO.
Suspicious man arrested near hospital A Duke University Police Department officer found a man lying on the sidewalk Friday near the bushes at Trent Drive near Duke University Medical Center. The man claimed to have come to the hospital for treatment and then refused any treatment.
The officer found the man had 10 outstanding warrants for failure to appear in court on other charges.
The man was arrested and given a $5,000 secured bond. The man was also banned from campus.
SUMMER from page 3 The limited hours of on-campus eateries often force students to search for other solutions for food. “Food’s the biggest deficit on campus,” said senior Rob Ocel. “I go out to eat almost every day because everything on campus is closed.” For Elia, however, life during the summer is not that much of a change from the academic year. “I get together with friends on campus or off campus and hang out with them, it’s not too different,” Chen said, noting that social life during the summer has one added bonus. “Hanging out with friends is definitely a lot more relaxed during the summer,” she said. “It’s kind of nice just to be able to hang out with people as opposed to always having an organized plan.” The 250-plus student members of the Duke summer activities listserv, however, beg to differ. Managed by Vivian Wang, the summer activities director for this year, the listserv is used to send students a
weekly schedule of organized activities funded by the Office of Continuing Studies. Typical activities have included starlight bowling in Cary, strawberry picking, “wafting” in inflatable boats on the Eno River, Wednesday movie nights, Durham Bulls baseball games and discounted concert trips, such as last night’s Dave Matthews Band concert. Other activities encourage students to utilize free time for learning new skills. “I want to try a cooking night where students bring their own recipes,” Wang added. “Often, Duke students are thrown into an apartment setting... relying on canned goods, frozen foods and stuff.” Wang also hopes to implement some student suggested activities as well, including a game of capture-the-flag in the Sarah R Duke Gardens. One group of students even organized their own listserv. “It’s not really a listerv in a true sense,” said junior Alex Payne, noting that it was just a tool for him and his friend to post activities. “The only thing we use it for is if we know we’re going to a Bulls game or we’re going to a movie; we send out an e-mail that just says if you want to join us you’re welcome to.”

In the works are four decontamination showers for exposure to chemicals, radiation or biological weapons, as well as a new resuscitation room. “We’re just so crunched for space right now, I’m very excited we will be able to spread out,” Doucette said. Other additions include 25,000-squarefoot expansion to the lobby, as well as private rooms and private bays for patients. A different setup will be applied in the pediatric expansion, Finch said. A new 18-bed pediatric area will facilitate care for cases ranging from minor injuries to more complicated conditions. “Physicians, nurses and other staff will work as a team around those other patients to make it effective and easy,” Finch said. Renovations will not only change the physical layout of the Hospital, but will also “fundamentally change the way we do business,” Doucette said. “It’s a linear design,” he explained “The staff functions in the middle parts and the families coming in kind of have their own hallways to separate them from the hubbub,” he said. He added that in addition to making the operation of the facility more efficient for the hospital staff, the model will also benefit recuperating patients by keeping them away from excess noise. Although the design may appear to distance padents and doctors, Doucette said the new layout will increase efficiency—allowing doctors to actually spend more dme widi padents, instead of less. The renovations will relieve traffic outside the hospital as well, thanks to a new docking bay for ambulances located further away from the public entrance, said Shawn Subasic, director for the facility planning, design and construction office. A new ambulance bay location will prevent interactions between patients entering the hospital with minor injuries and trauma patients being unloaded from am-
I thought to myself, ‘that would be a great thing for me to do.’” Finally in 2001, Abrams landed the daytime talk show he had been pushing for, with the announcement coming out six days before the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist Attacks on New York City’s twin towers. As a result of the tragedy, Abrams said his show initially focused on the terrorism threat. In recent years, however, it has evolved to emphasize broader legal issues. Earlier this month, Abrams was promoted to general manager of MSNBC. Though his first move in his new position was to take “The Abrams Report” off the air, he said his show was meant to discuss issues in an open manner. “My show was an opinion-based show,” he explained. “I felt that by telling the viewers what my opinion was on certain stories, that they could more honestly assess the issues. A lot of people claim to be objective and straight down the middle' on everything when, in fact, we all have opinions on things.” At a time when the media has been accused of providing biased coverage, Abrams said it is not shows like his that contribute to this image. “The greater dangers of media bias are not the opinion-based cable news shows,” he said. “The greater danger of media bias is those who claim to be objective, claim to not have an opinion and then let [their opinions] seep in.” In addition to his show, Abrams also managed a blog, wrote a monthly legal column in Men’s Health magazine and has written articles featured in publications like the New York Times and The American Lawyer magazine. However, he* said his focus now is on his new position. “Life is about choices,” he said. “I have to make big choices every day, but my primary job now is my new job, which is running MSNBC. I intend to make it more competitive, more energetic and more exciting.” Though Abrams said he does not have any specific plans on how to achieve his goals yet, he said viewers can “expect changes in the relatively near future.”

ABRAMS DA from page 5
Abrams said he did not doubt the possitrue in March when the district attorney first announced his suspicions. The Duke administration’s role in the case was widely criticized in the media, and Abrams also said the University could have had a stronger response. “Initially I was very impressed with the way they walked a very difficult line,” Abrams said of the administration’s early handling of the situation. “But... they probably could have done a little more to protect the students—not because they’re Duke students—but because the evidence is so weak in this case.” Abrams also said that based on his own experiences at Duke, the severity of the town-gown disparity was exaggerated by sensationalist media. “There is no question that there are issues—there have always been issues—but I think that the University community has tried to address those issues for a long time,” he said. Abrams said the issues raised in the scandal are not unique to Duke, and the media frenzy was a result of various spins applied to the case. “This is a case that has all the elements—it has rape, it has class, it has race, it has sports,” he said. “Ultimately, what I think has kept it in the public eye has been the fact that the case is so weak.”
bility the allegations were
“capable of doing horrible things”
at the University, most students were not like that. “It’s not as if I came into this saying, ‘They went to Duke, they never could have done it,”’ he said. “I was saying, ‘l’m really sad that something like this could happen.’ It turns out I’m really sad that the DA could let this [investigation] happen.” Abrams said his skepticism arose from a lack of evidence supporting the district attorney’s case and not from any kind of bias. He was the first member of the media to recently receive the almost 1,300 pages of discovery Nifong turned over to the defense in May. “There are so many contradictions in [the accuser’s] story that this DA never should have brought this case,” Abrams said on “The Abrams Report” June 19, packet of evidence in hand. Abrams has argued the charges against the players be dropped on the basis ofinsubstantial evidence. “We do know what [Nifong] had at least at the time these guys were indicted, and it ain’t much,” Abrams said on “The Abrams Report” June 19. “Considering what has been turned over, I will be surprised if this case makes it to trial.”

Williams added that other institutes allied with DUHS, including the National University of Singapore, may serve as a base for research and “collaboration for things not possible within the walls of Duke’s campuses.” By focusing on expansions within the
community and around the globe, DUHS administrators hope that Duke will not only build upon a solid reputation in the area of global health, but will also benefit from the flow of ideas from around the world. “Discoveries made in this country can be brought overseas to have a global health impact—rapidly transmitted to global communities,” Dzau said. “We’d like to be able to learn from other communities globally and reverse the flow of ideas as well.”

DA RACE from page 3 The option requires the challenger to collect signatures from 100 registered voters by Aug. 9. Monks, however, said he will not continue to pursue the position if he does not collect the necessary signatures by next Friday. “Durham needs to put this decision to bed,” Monks said. “A write-in campaign would just prolong the suffering,” he added. Both challengers said they considered opposing Nifong on the basis of recent concerns over the district attorney’s conduct. “I had a number of people in the community who asked me to think about it,” Cheek said. “They raised some issues to me over some of the things the district attorney had to say and some of the
things he had done.” Cheek, who said he had never considered running for the position before the controversy emerged, said the wave of public encouragement was the deciding factor in his campaign for candidacy. Monks, however, said he contemplated filling the office for quite some time. He added that debate over Nifong’s behavior affects the future credibility of the role of the district attorney and “highlights concern about a bigger picture.” Cheek said the same, noting that the recent controversy has raised general questions about how any district attorney should handle cases in a public arena. “The issues are issues that go far beyond the Duke lacrosse case,” Cheek said. “The district attorney is a representative of the people of the state of North Carolina and needs to approach every situation in a very neutral way.”

Gregory Beaton THE CHRONICLE
Fundraising for the Center for Athletic Excellence is nearly complete and a ceremony will be held shortly to commemorate the start of the building’s construction. The building, which will house basketball courts, an event space, flexible office space and the athletic department’s academic center, will cost approximately $l5 million to complete. As of last October, about $7 million had been raised. The total currently stands at $l4 million, Associate Director ofAthletics Mike Cragg said. There is no specific date yet planned for the groundbreaking, but it is expected to be sometime later this summer. “We’ve had a lot of people step up with it,” men’s basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski said of the fundraising. One of the primary objectives for the facility was to alleviate the crunch for practice time in Cameron Indoor Stadium. Currently, four teams—men’s and women’s basketball, as well as wrestling and volleyball—use the facility. During basketball season, the men’s and women’s teams split time in Cameron. The two extra courts in the Center for Athletic Excellence will allow the teams to practice simultaneously. The new structure will also afford more privacy to the current and former Blue Devils who return to Durham to work out. “We not only share it with four teams but everyone wants to be in it, they want to have a meeting in there, a concert in there, graduations there,” Krzyzewski said. “As a result, our time is limited.” Although the original plans did not contain much more than the two basket-

Duke returns from team trip to Germany Sean Moroney THE CHRONICLE

Most Americans who ventured to Germany this June journeyed there to see the World Cup and be part of the atmosphere. Very few, however, intended to actually play soccer. The Blue Devils managed to do a little of both. The men's soccer team traveled to Germany and Austria from June 5-15 to play three overseas teams. Even though honing their skills, coming together as a team and facing professional competition were objectives of the trip, the Blue Devils did not miss the opportunity to partake in the German culture, sights, food and most importantly to them, the World Cup. “We got to spend a ridiculous amount of time together,” midfielder Chris Loftus said. “We were like a tight-knit family for 10 days. It was wonderful to be able to go there with 20 of your best friends, play soccer and watch the World Cup.” In between the Blue Devils’ second and

third games, they visited the Olympic Village in Munich—the site of the 1972 Munich massacre. In Olympic Park, they
joined 60,000 ticketless German fans watching the first match of the World Cup between Germany and Costa Rica. When the German squad scored its first goal, the crowd erupted. “It was unbelievable when the Germans scored that first goal,” goalkeeper Justin Papadakis said. “It was just as fun as being in the stadium. Being able to be in that environment and to interact with all the German fans was incredible.” Papadakis said the German fans were curious to know why a bunch of guys were walking around in matching blue uniforms with “Duke” painted across the front. Later in the trip, the Blue Devils were able to do more than experience the World Cup buzz. After Duke’s third game, the team traveled to Gelsenkirchen, Germany to attend the match between the United States and Czech Republic, which the United States lost, 3-0, to the Czechs. “It was probably one of the coolest games I have ever been to,” Loftus said. “The atmosphere was ridiculous. There were about as many U.S. fans there as Czech fans. We were singing the national anthem with 25,000 other people, and we saw that soccer isn’t just a sport over there, it’s away of life.” Before the team immersed itself in World Cup hysteria, however, the first order of business was the three soccer matches. Upon arriving to Munich June 5, the Blue Devils only had one day to recover from the long plane flight before they took on their first opponent, TSV-1860 Rosenheim. Duke showed very little signs of travel weariness as they staunchly defeated the German amateur squad, 4-0. In the second match of the trip, Duke faced a Russian premier league team, FC Luch Energia Vladivostok. Even though the Blue Devils held the superior Russian team scoreless for most of the first half, they gave up a goal late when they were unable to clear the ball with 12 seconds remaining in the half. Vladivostok added two more scores in the second half and shut out the Blue Devils, 5-0.
Members of the men's soccer team take in the action at theWorld Cup on the squad's trip to Germany For its final match, Duke traveled to Austria to take on another Russian Premier League team, Dynamo Moscow. The Russian squad featured five Russian National Team members and was able to down the Blue Devils, 3-0, with one score in the first half and two in the second. Even though the score did not show it, the Blue Devils had numerous scoring opportunities, including a header in the second half by Ramsey that ricocheted off the post. “When we played the first Russian team, we had to learn to play against guys that were better than us, both tactically and physically,” Papadakis said. “But between the second and third game, we definitely adapted. We picked up our game and found ways to compensate for their better play.” Papadakis added that competing against the Russian professional teams really showed the Blue Devils how they still have room to improve in so many ways. It also gave them an idea of what level and what amount of practice any player must do if he wants to play on a professional level. With all the time Duke spent either
watching or playing soccer, they also
found time to visit various historic sites’ and explored many of Germany’s cities. The most emotionally stirring moment of the trip occurred when the Blue Devils visited Dachau, the first concentration camp established by the Germans during World War 11. “We walked around it, and it was very sobering,” Papadakis said. “We saw the gas chamber, and they did a very nice job of telling the history of the place. It was very sobering to know that this happened only 60 years ago. Everyone took a lot away from it.” The team also visited the Eagle’s Nest the home built as a 50th birthday present for Hider from the Nazi party —and took in the expanse and sites ofMunich during a four-hour bike tour. “I think any time you travel together and share experiences like that together—the bus rides, seeing historical sites, and watching the World Cup matches—you bond as a team,” Papadakis said. “The social experiences and living together in a foreign country for ten days really helped us become closer personally.” —

Sean Dockery
Shelden Williams
J.J. Redick
Projection: 2nd round to undrafted
Projection: Top 10
Projection: Top 10
Dockery participated in the NBA predraft camp in Orlando in early June. The point guard played through an injury and ran his team with a-steady hand, but he did not stand out. A team looking for a tenacious defender could draft Dockery late, or he could go undrafted and look to sign as a free agent. Dockery could be helped by the recent success of former Blue Devils Chris Duhon and Daniel Ewing, who were both picked in the second round. "The main thing for him is to play on a summer league team," head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "Somebody would be able to see him over a period of time. His chances of making the NBA are not as good. He has a chance. The main thing for him is to be seen, keep playing. If he's not getting a good job in the NBA then he can do something overseas."
After workouts with Houston, Seattle, Golden State and Utah, Redick was a hot commodity. His arrest for DWI last week caused a stir but it is unclear whether it will affect his draft status. Redick has also been nursing a sore back, but Krzyzewski said Redick was set to resume playing this weekend after receiving treatment at Duke
Williams could have left Duke last year and been picked late in the first round. He came back and in the first draft without high school players his stock is soaring. Williams has worked out for several NBA teams and he has impressed during the interviews. In a draft filled with uncertainty, Williams is the most polished big man. He could No. 5 to Atlanta or No. 8 to Boston. Orlando, at pick No. 11, could also be interested. "His workout went real well [in Atlanta]," Krzyzewski said. "Shelden would fit in with most any team. Shelden's going to be a long-time NBA veteran. I think what most people are impressed with are his facing the basket game. I think he'll go pretty high."
Medical Center. Some teams that might be looking at Redick are Houston at No. 8, Seattle at No. 10, Orlando at No. 11 and Utah at No. 14. "He's had really good interviews and we think he's going to be in really good shape," Krzyzewski said. "I don't think the DUI will have any impact because that's not his behavior, that's not who he is. It's an isolated incident... The clearing up of what his back was, the good news he had this week,
that reassured his people."

The 59-year-old Krzyzewski, who will head to Las Vegas next month to run the U.S. National Team trials, defended his decision to remain quiet on the issue, saying it was better for him to offer advice but not to speak publicly. “It is important for me to remember my place,” Krzyzewski said. “I am not the President, I am not the Athletic Director and I am not on the Board ofTrustees.” Throughout the spring, some have taken the lacrosse scandal as an opportunity to call upon the University to alter its stance on Division I college athletics. When President Richard Brodhead reinstated the team June 5, he brought the Athletics Department under his direct control, but he also reaffirmed the University’s commitment to excellence in athletics. Krzyzewski said he took issue with those who suggested the role of athletics at Duke should change, calling that belief “narrow-minded.” “All of the coaches that coach here are teachers,” he said. “I write about 100 lesson plans a year and they are different ones than the ones I used the year before. I then have a chance to coach games and all that, but we teach more than coach a game. We know our students very well and the lessons thaf are learned on the court complement the lessons that are learned in the classroom because it should be unified effort in an educational process.” One of the committees Brodhead commissioned in the wake of the lacrosse controversy, chaired by William Bowen and Julius Chambers, called on Duke to rethink the place of college athletics within the scope of higher education. Krzyzewski, however, disagreed with the findings of that report and emphasized the important role that school spirit plays in the Duke and Durham communities. Krzyzewski said he was proud ofhow the local communities have responded in die face ofmedia attendon. “I love our community because for the last few months, a number of people who have come into our community and raised a lot of questions, which they are entided to do, that could have provoked things that
day after beating the Edmonton Oilers, the Hurricanes took a victory lap around the RBC Center Tuesday before taking the stage to thank about 30,000 fans who waited through a hot June afternoon to greet the first post-lockout NHL champions “You guys helped us to win this,” said captain Rod Blind’Amour, a 17-year veteran who was one of several Hurricanes to finally win the Cup after years of falling
During his press conference, Mike Krzyzewski covered a range of topics, including the plans for the Centerfor AthletifeExcellence (SEE PAGE 11). where not a part of this situation,” he said. “Our commu-
nity is so darn good that they did not allow it. I don’t look at this being a white community, an African American community, a Hispanic community—I look at this being a great Durham community.” When Brodhead reinstated the team, Director ofAthletics Joe Alieva said he was working on an over-arching code ofconduct for all student-athletes at Duke. Krzyzewski said he had given input for the initiative, but he warned against setting specific guidelines for penalties. He said coaches needed to be afforded the “latitude to lead.” “Our first rule with a team is, ‘Don’t do anything detrimental to yourself or to our program,’” Krzyzewski said. “That gives me a lot of latitude so that I can judge what is detrimental to them.... You don’t let a rule govern what you do; you let a principle govern what you do. Instead of a code of conduct, I would rather have a code of values.”
short. “At the start of the year, we wanted to make you proud of this hockey team, and I think we did that.” It was the team’s second trip to the finals since the former Hartford Whalers moved south in 1997. But unlike a five-game loss to Detroit four years ago, the Hurricanes took the final step by holding off a determined Oilers squad in front of a rowdy home crowd Monday night to end an intense and dramatic series. That prompted Tuesday’s parade carrying players through a cheering crowd of “Caniacs” clad in red, white and black. Alternate captain Glen Wesley—an 18-year veteran who won the Cup for the first time —held the silver trophy aloft as children in his truck pitched foam pucks into the crowd as if they were medallions tossed from a Mardi Gras float. “They call it a nontraditional hockey market, but there’s all those people out there screaming in the heat,” defenseman Aaron Ward said. “So maybe by the standards of temperature we’re not a hockey market, but we’ve got some enthusiasm out there.” Long lines formed for refreshments on the 90-degree day, and a band played as the crowd waited for the players to arrive. Once they did, it took on the feel of a Hollywood premiere as the players —some stopping to give high-fives—left the parade vehicles and walked by waving, cheering fans toward the stage. “I didn’t know what to expect,” defenseman Mike Commodore said. “I didn’t know how many people would show up, but there’s a lot of people here. People are excited and it’s great. I’m glad they appreciate and everybody enjoys what we did.”

lie editor at the Raleigh News & Observer, have noted that coverage has now shifted in favor of the lacrosse players. If nothing else, it seems a bit more balanced these days. This week, Newsweek published an article entitled “Has the Duke Case Collapsed?”—a question more and more people are starting to ask. While the defense has been more vocal than ever, Nifong has had to keep his lips sealed—all the while standing by his original statements. Indeed, day-to-day media spin has seemed to go with the ones who are most vocal. There are, of course, always two sides to a story. Regardless, Monks and Cheek should be given the chance to challenge Nifong this fall. If they get the signatures, and if they get the votes, then the people will have truly spoken. And, when the democratic system has run its course, the best man for the job will come out on top. So opt for some options. Get out and sign the petitions for Monks and Cheek.

lettertotheeditor Faculty, administration rushed to judgements I applaud Randall Drain, Trinity ’O5, for his courageous and poignant column published in the June 15th issue of The Chronicle. I agree wholeheartedly with Mr. Drain that the lack of support for the men’s lacrosse team has been appalling. A mere accusation set off an unforgivable rush to judgment in which the Duke faculty and administration willingly participated. Eighty-eight professors signed an ad calling “what happened to this young woman” a “social disaster” and decrying the racism on Duke’s campus. Professor Houston Baker accused the team of hiding behind a “silent whiteness.” Professor Peter Wood took the opportunity to complain about, of all things, attendance in his class. Professor Melissa Malouf suggested the “condoms theory” to counter the exculpatory DNA results. As recendy as June 17, Professor Joseph Dibona published a letter in the Durham Herald-Sun complaining that the decision to reinstate the team ignored “whether the team will be found guilty.” This attack comes after recent evidence suggests that not only are the accused players innocent but that the claim of a three-person, 30-minute sexual
assault is, and always was, impossible Given this evidence and the recent accusations against the district attorney regarding truthfulness, where are the faculty members decrying the injustice that has been done to these students? Do all 88 professors still stand behind their signatures? The initial reaction would perhaps be forgivable if the University community responded with equal vigor to defend the players after evidence on what did and did not happen was revealed. Yet instead of protests and media quotes, all we hear is silence and equivocation. Why are we in the Duke community leaving the accused players and their families to bear the burden of this injustice alone? As a proud Duke alumnus, the cowardice and opportunism of the Duke faculty and administration causes me to shake my head in disgust. Under normal circumstances, such weakness would be shameful. Given the magnitude of the attack on our University, it is unconscionable.

and I would suggest, fanciful view. Although few would say the system is perfect, many would say a number of its historical flaws have been corrected, and the flaws that do remain actually favor the criminals. Again, these positions reflect the inequitable allocation of privilege in America. Space does not permit a full fleshing out of these issues here. The bottom line is that we cannot afford to rely on the crises de jour, such as the Duke lacrosse rape case, to prompt us to address these important structural issues. To do so would mean that responses will be unavoidably parochial and shallow. The immoral inequalities between rich and poor, between white and black and brown and between men and women require a sustained commitment and effort to produce true social change and justice. The social hierarchies that endure because of these inequalities need more than task force attention. There must be a concerted effort that combines the task force approach with programs that will fully engage the community and the political system to produce change.

Grasping cultural divisons TRANG,
Thailand Disarmingly casual. That’s the best phrase I can think of to describe the Thai teachers at the schools where my friends and I currendy are working. They have no problem—and I mean no problem whatsoever—asking us personal questions and divulging intimate details about their lives or, more shockingly, the lives of their students. Over a meal of green curry and rice Monday, the principal of my school asked me how much my trip to the coast over the weekend had cost He pronounced me “very wealthy” when I named the price. (In fact, it was quite cheap by American standards.) I blushed at the comment, unsure cp ard darb whether it was uttered the word with praise or disdain Later that day, a young female teacher began grilling me across a table in the computer room: how much is it costing me to live in Thailand, what does my boyfriend do, am I getting married soon, are my parents rich. The questions came rapid-fire and never ceased to increase in their level of casualness. I tried to answer them as best I could, cringing with each response—hoping she wouldn’t pass a judgmental gaze (she never did) or make an embarrassing pronouncement about my life (she did). But the most casual, the most intimate, the most troubling of these exchanges with the teachers comes in the classroom. The first day I was teaching Primary Two (a class of seven-year-olds), the teacher pointed to a small, gangly boy in the front row and loudly announced, “He eleven. Special. Not smart.” The woman’s finger was just inches from the boy’s face; even if he didn't understand her English, the tone of her voice let on to the public, insulting nature ofher words. His sullen face showed that he understood. Uncomfortable, I just nodded and moved toward the chalkboard, hoping she would not offer similar descriptions of other students. Several teachers in the other classes I teach have pointed at students and described them as “bad,” “slow” or “autistic.”
In fact, the latter term seems to be the default categorization for students who are learning disabled, handicapped—or merely upset or quiet. A boy in one of my older classes is embarrassed to read English passages to me, even if it matters for his daily grades. I assume it is because he is afraid to mispronounce words in front of me because that would mean losing face in front of his friends. But the teacher told me that embarrassment has nothing to do with it; the instructors think he refuses to cooperate because he is autistic. Similarly, myfriend Mercy, who teaches at a school close to mine, told me there is a small boy who sits in the school director’s office all day, every day and never goes to class. Earlier this week, he was crying uncontrollably—and as Mercy walked past the child with one of her colleagues, the teacher, with a wave of her hand and a laugh, exclaimed, "Autistic!" But that’s not the half ofit. Hopping into our transport van Tuesday afternoon, a breathless Mercy began telling us about her favorite student, a pretty little girl who listens to Mercy’s iPod and draws tattoos on her arm. We’ve been hearing about the child for nearly three weeks, but this afternoon, Mercy had new, and upsetting, information. One of the teachers had pointed at the little girl that day and explained, “She come from broken home.” The teacher then lifted up the child's shirt and showed Mercy a nasty scar on her stomach, saying, “She move away from her father. Not safe.” In the United States, teachers could never get away with such comments and show-and-tell of a student's body. No way in hell. But here in Thailand, it is acceptable—indeed, the teachers seem to feel obligated to tell us about their students, no matter how intimate the subject matter. Moreover, they are casual in their physical treatment of the students. I was stunned the first week of school when I saw a teacher hit a child—albeit very lightly—with a stick to get him into line during an assembly. Since then, many of the volunteers I am living with have been offered a stick or pole to whack their children with if they get rowdy. (All have declined). A teacher jokingly offered me an umbrella when she left me in a classroom the other day, making a sliceacross-the-throat gesture and pointing at a group of boys.
Apparently, I could punish them if I wanted to. I definitely did not. I don’t want to give the impression that teachers in Thailand are terrible people. On the contrary, I find them to be warm, generous and, overall, good at their jobs. They care deeply about their students, would never hurt them and, I believe, mean no harm when they ask me questions about my life. Rather, the bottom line is that Thai people have very different concepts of education and day-to-day intimacy in comparison to adults in the United States (and in Canada, according to some of the other volunteers in my house). How people rear and teach children, what sorts of details they share about their lives, how comfortable they feel casually asking personal questions—all of these aspects of life are starkly different in Thailand than they have been in my, and the other volunteers, own experiences. I wasn’t anticipating such casualness when I decided to come here, and I do find it upsetting much of the time. It’s hard to hear about a child’s home-life problems as though they are small potatoes or watch a teacher threaten a student with a stick. How can such actions be deemed OK? How should I respond to them? Should I ask that the teachers not use sticks in front of me, that they stop talking about the children, even if they believe they are doing good by letting me in on the details of their personal lives? As with other pieces in the puzzle of Thai life—the food, the language, the religion—l realize the surprising intimacy is a reality ofcultural division, no matter how difficult it is for me to grasp. In the column I wrote about departing for Thailand a few weeks ago, I noted the importance of sharing cultural experiences. Attempting to adhere to my own standard, I am trying to live with the casualness of life in the Thai schools and, more broadly, in Thai culture. But, to be candid, the next time a teacher calls a child autistic or picks up a stick, I could find my American-ness rearing its head and ask the action stop. Casual treatment ofchildren may be a cultural component for which I am not cut out—for better or worse, whatever that fact says about my character or world view.
