THE CHRONICLE

As Duke students leave for the summer, few are at Shooter’s II seen riding the

famous rodeo bull and climbing into the elevated cage. With most students gone, the change leads to a huge drop in revenue every summer for the Western-themed student hotspot. And with Duke students spending an estimated $92.5 million at off-campus establishments, according to a 2003 study by the Office of Public Affairs, the summer slump that affects some Durham businesses is not surprising. As summer begins, local nightclubs favored by students during the school year see a significant decline in business. Business at Shooter’s, for example, falls 85 to 90 percent and stays that way the entire summer, said manager Kim Cates. “I probably wouldn’t have to be open during summertime, but this is my livelihood,” she said. The number of private parties at the club drops from about eight a month during the school year to none over the summer. And with few local customers to make up for the seasonal loss, Shooter’s must wait until August to draw in its regular crowd again. “I used to cater to locals, but when I started catering to Duke students the locals stopped coming to my club as much,” she said. “These students are locals to me.” Cafe Parizade, another local business, also takes a hard hit in the summertime.

Often a hotspot for Duke undergraduates on Thursday nights during the Fall and Spring semesters, Devine's does not attracts quite as many patrons when students leave the University for summer vacation. “We are in Duke country,” explained Igor Gacina, general managerof the local restaurant that frequently hosts Duke private parties during the school year. Off-campus restaurants, such as Cinelli’s Pizzeria & Restaurant, are often target-

ed by students during the year for quick service and delivery on food points. Like others, though, Cinelli’s notices a “big difference” in business come summertime, said manager Luigi Siores. S££ DURHAM Qn PAGE 4

All convictions and penalties brought against Fuqua School of Business students were upheld by the school’s appeals committee, officials announced June 1. Twenty four of the 34 first-year masters of business administration program candidates charged with violations of the Fuqua Honor Code in a required first-year course submitted appeals in late May. In a case that received national attention, the Fuqua Judicial Board ruled in late April that nine students should be expelled and 15 students receive a one-year suspension and a failing grade in the course. Nine others will receive a failing grade in the course and one student will receive a failing grade on an exam. “This has been a regrettable time at Fuqua, but it also provides us with a valuable reminder that our honor code is what unites us across the diverse nationalities and cultures that we welcome here at Fuqua,” Dean Douglas Breeden said in a statement. In an interview with The Chronicle Wednesday, however, three students from Asia who have been convicted of Honor Code violations said cultural differences played a role in the outcome of the case.

As some universities push to diversify their student bodies by granting admission to applicants from low-income backgrounds, officials said Duke remains committed to a need-blind admissions system. They added, however, that the University does value and seeks to attract a socioeconomically diverse pool. An article published in The New York Times May 27 said that schools such as Harvard University, the University ofVirginia and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have used the admissions process to find students with lower socioeconomic statuses who not only meet the general standards of admission but also bring backgrounds statistically rare at elite institutions.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLLEVILLE-SUR-MER, France Above a cliff of silent reminders, Defense Secretary Robert Gates Wednesday evoked the image of fallen warriors to mark the 63rd anniversary of the Normandy D-Day landings that turned the tide of World War 11. The bloody beach assault June 6, 1944 “unfolded as if it were a lifetime” for the young men who braved German guns, Gates said, looking out upon a vast field of white grave markers on a rainy, chilly day. Gates attended the anniversary ceremony and dedication Wednesday of a visitor’s center at the Normandy American Cemetery, the burial ground for 9,387 war dead, most of whom lost their lives in the amphibious assault and subsequent operations. In remarks at the midday ceremony, Gates said U.S. and allied soldiers landed at Normandy to destroy entrenched forces of oppression “so that this nation, this continent and this world could one day know the tidings of peace. “We once again face enemies seeking to destroy our way of life, and we are once again engaged in an ideological struggle that may not find resolution for many years or even decades,” he said. Speaking before Gates was Walter Ehlers, a Medal of Honor recipient who landed at Omaha Beach as a an Army staff sergeant. “We weren’t prepared for the chaos

Durham Police C hief Steven Chalmers is set to retire this December and will be replaced by one of three candidates introduced Tuesday evening. by

Jin Noh

THE CHRONICLE

The three finalists for the Durham police chief position introduced themselves to Durham citizens and police officers and answered their questions Tuesday evening at a public forum held at City Hall. City Manager Patrick Baker sifted through more than 60 applications for the position to be vacated by Chief Steven Chalmers, who is set to retire this December. Donald Green from Knoxville, Tenn., Ronald Hodge from Durham and Jose Lopez from Hartford, Conn., are the three finalists for the position. Hodge is currendy deputy chief of the Durham Police Department. After a two-minute introduction for each candidate, the citizens were allowed to write their questions on a sheet ofpaper, which was then handed to the moderator. Most questions concentrated on reforming the image of DPD, improving relations with citizens—and in particular urban youths—and decreasing gang violence and drug trade. Other questions centered around political and organiza-

tional issues, such as officer work shifts and relations with elected officials. Candidates’ responses were generally similar and focused on developing stronger relations with the community and reducing the crime rate dramatically. However, concerns about the their records were raised by the moderator, who asked if the candidates had anything that could be an “embarrassment to the city” if revealed. Both Hodge and Lopez deflected the question by confronting past alleged charges recently brought to light by the local media and stating that each had gone through the legal process and that these charges were without basis. “I think unsubstantiated charges are a non-issue,” resident Chris Bartol said. Following the forum, when asked which of the three candidates left the best impression, reactions from citizens were mixed. “Deputy Chief Hodge [impressed me most],” Bartol said. “He is very familiar with the issues in the community, he is very familiar with the way the police department is around here and has a clear

understanding of the issues.”

Another Durham resident, Chris Tiffany, responded differendy. “I came here already with a favorable impression of Lopez,” he said. “Given that, I still felt generally good about him.” Attendees said their preferences were driven by the characteristics they believed are most important for the new chief. “[The best candidate is] one that commands presence, one that understands issues of Durham, the diversity of Durham, and the recent issues that have been going on surrounding the police department,” Bartol said. “I think Chief Hodge demonstrated that.” In contrast, Tiffany answered differently when asked what characteristics he valued more heavily. “Honesty, law enforcement instead of PR,” he said. “I think we also need someone from the outside. This meet-and-greet out there in the community stuff, Lopez really does that apparently. He really is out on the street, whereas even captains here in town have no clue what goes on in their own city.”

Last spring, publications and media sources across the nation admonished the 2005-2006 men’s lacrosse team for its offthe-field conduct. Since charges against the three indicted players were dropped and the team climbed its way back to the national title game, critics of those commentators have questioned why they have failed to be as loud in lauding the team’s accomplishments. Two Duke alumni, Aubrey McClendon, Trinity ’Bl, and Bob Pascal, Duke ’56, have collectively spent over $500,000 in advertisements to “celebrate” the players’ achievements. “I knew that the truth would come out in dme, and when it did I wanted to celebrate for these young men publicly their achievements on the field and off the field this year,” McClendon told The Oklahoman, an Oklahoma City newspaper. In the past week, he paid $400,000 to run ads in the The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The (Raleigh) News & Observer and The (Durham) Herald-Sun.

Some summer school students, such as sophomore Allen Yu, relied on their meal plans and on-campus eateries during the school year but are forced to resort to off-campus restaurants or home-cooked meals without a summer meal plan . Yu said he depends more on off-campus food in the summer, but it isn’t his only option. “There’s no designated place to get food,” he said. “We rely also on groceries because we can’t go out and eat everyday.”

In a special meeting June 1, City Council members named five members of the 12-person committee that will be responsible for reviewing the Durham Police Department’s part in the Duke lacrosse case investigation. The committee will be led by former state supreme court justice and state legislator Willis Whichard and will include the current police chiefs of Charlotte-Mecklenburg, Winston-Salem and High Point, as well as a former chief of Chapel Hill. “I wanted someone that had stature, credibility and a legal mind, and would be respected in this community,” Mayor Bill Bell said of Whichard’s selection. Bell added that the names of the selected committee members were initially submitted in a list compiled by the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation at the request ofNorth Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper. Each of the seven council members, including Bell, will now nominate an additional community member or criminal defense attorney to serve on the committee. Though council members have full liberty in making their decisions, Bell said the council is committed to forming a balanced group that can reflect and represent the different parties and issues raised by the investigation. “The charge of the committee is to look at the past to determine what happened and hopefully make recommendations,” he said. “In doing so, I was looking at what were the events and parties involved at the outset of the

case: the police department, the office of the district attorney [and]... the criminal defense attorneys. “[lt] was comprised of elements of those categories of law enforcement, trying to, as best as possible, have genders represented, Caucasians and African Americans represented and to try to have some person who may be involved with persons who have alleged they have been raped.” Because the external investigation is atypical, Bell said the council has not determined any hard rules regarding its involvement with the committee. Bell said he would like to see the committee fully formed by June 18 and an investigation concluded 30 to 60 days after, but said he is not assigning a hard deadline for the process. “We also don’t want to rush to judgment, so we don’t want to have the decision rushed by an arbitrary deadline,” he said.

In other news: Council member Thomas Stith launched a Stith for

Mayor committee and said he intends to run for mayor in the upcoming fall elections. “It’s time to make a decision. We’re not going to just stay the course and be satisfied with mediocrity,” he told The Raleigh News & Observer. Bell told The Chronicle Wednesday he does intend to stand for reelection for a third consecutive term. No official candidacies will be filed until July.

community. “Last year we anticipated it to be very slow because we base our business so much on Duke University, but in actuality the locals come out a lot more [in the summer],” said manager John Pang. Pang said that about 70 percent of its weekend customers are Duke students during the school year, whereas during the summer 90 percent are locals. Since the seating capacity of the restaurant is limited, locals dine more in the summer knowing the restaurant will be less busy without the student crowd, Pang added. For some places, though, regular business from Durham residents provides steady revenue year round. “We have such a strong local [clientele] that I don’t really consider a student loss,” said Maggie Morgan, manager of James Joyce Irish Pub Restaurant. Bars tend to bring in a regular local crowd, and nightclubs and restaurants that host private events cater to many students—particularly fraternities and sororities—during the school year. Despite the lower turnout of students at parties hosted by Devine’s Restaurant and Sports Bar, it also fares well during the season due to its solid local base. “We had one of the best Mays that we’ve ever had,” said Devine’s manager Kim Snyder, Trinity ’BB. The Federal Lounge, which caters more to graduate students than undergraduates, is less affected in the summer, said manager Lhys Botica. Still, the loss of students in the summer is felt by the most visited businesses, and, for places like Shooters, by more than just a drop in revenue. “I hate when they go home for summer,” Cates said.

I didn’t know the serious consequences by pleading guilty,” Bob said. “Once students plead guilty the Judicial Board normally have no further questions relating to the facts of the case.” The students noted that all 10 students in their three separate hearings, including themselves, are students from Asia. Fuqua administrators, however, said cultural differences did not play a role in the outcome of the case. “The students who have received the severest penalties of expulsion or a one-year suspension come from three continents and represent both foreign and domestic students,” Michael Hemmerich, associate dean for marketing and communications ofFuqua, wrote in an e-mail. Although the students said they are not sure if the school was discriminating against Asian students, they raised many questions regarding the process. All three students submitted an appeal but said they felt the outcomes were predetermined. Even before the appeals committee received any information from the students, Bob said, Breeden—a member of the commitee—indicated decisions are rarely

Cheating is a wrongdoing. We know that.” Although the students said they do not believe they cheated, they said they pleaded guilty because they were not familiar with the procedures of a judicial review. Joe said in his home country the traditional legal system is based on the presumption of guilt, adding that he did not fully understand the right to not incriminate himself. “According to my feelings, I felt pressured to explain the [offenses],” Joe said, adding that he did not realize he had the right to remain silent. “Sally,” who will receive a one-year suspension and a failing grade in the course, said she did not know what it meant to plead guilty when she was asked at the hearing process. “It sounds like a funny story to me now, because it was the first question I was asked during the hearing and at the time no one explained that term,” she said. “For me, guilty is like sorry. I was the third person in this joint hearing, the first two students pled guilty and I felt the pressure so I just followed them.” Both Joe and “Bob,” who will also receive a one-year suspension and a failing grade in the course, said they pled guilty but thought it was away to express remorse. “In Asian culture, society can only forgive the person who shows deep regret for his doings because the society believes the person learned something from his wrongdoings,” Bob said. “And he’s going to be

“If the school realizes the procedural error they have made and changes it, maybe I will go back,” Sally said. “If [they] correct this mistake, I still have some hope in this school. That’s why we’re still here and have the courage to fight.” The students said they have not yet left the country because they wish to bring the case to the University—a quest that may prove futile. “The decisions are final, the administration cannot do anything,” said John Burness, senior vice president for public affairs and government relations. Bob, however, said he will exhaust all options in opposing the sanctions. “After such a tragedy or disaster I think some people will become even more stronger and more resilient,” Bob said. “If you don’t fight to the end, you’ll always be a loser—forever.”

Along with other gifts to the football program, Pascal—a former football player who ran for over 1,500 yards and scored 19 touchdowns in three seasons for the Blue Devils in the 1950s—also set up a matching contribution program last fall to support the football program.

USA Today that ran May 30. “I have been so angry and frustrated by the media speculation that went on with the whole lacrosse situation, and I just wanted to voice an opinion that I think is shared by Duke alumni,” Pascal told The N&O. The headline of Pascal’s black-andwhite ad, which is estimated to have cost $106,400, reads: “For a team very few people stood by, how about a standing ovation?” The ad then goes on te point out the team’s successes in the past season. Although McClendon’s ad is similar to Pascal’s and shares the same headline and message, it focuses on the media’s relative lack of “praise” for the players. “Here’s something you haven’t seen much of lately: Congratulatory praise for a team that has been the focus of one of the most unfair, unforgiving and unfortunate media spectacles in our nation’s history,” the ad reads. “But it’s never too late to give a little credit where more than a little credit is due.”

student a spot at the school “Students from certain socioeconomic backgrounds are welcome here as long as they are qualified,” she said. “They are not admitted because of their socioeconomic status; they have to be competitive.” Director of Financial Aid Jim Belvin said Duke has about 300 students from families with incomes that are less than $40,000 a year. Because Duke meets 100 percent offinancial need for all accepted students, admitting a larger number of low-income students would be a pricey decision, Belvin said. “Because these students are high-need, if you’re talking about 10 students [being admitted], that’s $400,000. The question becomes, ‘What kind of resources are available to support this?’ There’s nothing I like more than reaching out to needy students, but it’s a resource question.” Even with the potential financial aid costs, admitting low-income students helps deflect the advantages given to wealthy students during the admissions process and adds socioeconomic diversity to the student body, Guttentag said. “The admissions process at all highly selective schools has a number of elements that intrinsically favor economically advantaged students,” he said. “So an awareness of the challenges that many low-income students and their families face serves to place their accomplishments and activities in an appropriate context, and allows us to make better admissions decisions. I think there’s always a need to push for diversity, socioeconomic diversity included.”

professors and students started using iPods in their courses as part of the Duke Digital Initiative in 2004, they needed more effective ways to distribute and manage multimedia content, said Julian Lombardi, assistant vice president of academic services and technology support. Lombardi said web-based tools for academic multimedia exchange were developed in concert with Apple, and the project was given the code name “Indigo”—a reference to Duke blue. The effort culminated in the public release ofiTunes U last week. “By leveraging our relationship with Apple through the Duke Digital Initiative and the iPod program, we had dialogue and discussion with Apple engineers to help them design a system that would meet the needs of higher education communities,” Lombardi said. Jessica Mitchell, special projects manager for the Duke Digital Initiative, said faculty, students and student groups can sign up for albums on iTunes U and upload their own

multimedia files for public access. Current offerings include Froshlife videos and tracks from the student band the Pulsar Triyo. Mitchell said course spaces, similar to those currendy provided on Blackboard, can also be created on iTunes U. Professors and students can use these spaces to share multimedia files and turn in assignments, including vocal recordings for language classes. Access to course spaces is private and requires a Duke NetlD to log in. “We’re seeing more and more courses finding ways for students to create their own multimedia, and faculty want to put materials up for students as well,” said Samantha Earp, director of foreign language technology services. Sterly Wilder, executive directorofalumni affairs, said in a statement that she hopes the Duke area ofiTunes U will help alumni keep up with campus events and continue their learning after leaving the University. “When you’re a student, there are only so many courses you take and talks you can attend. This site lets you listen to lectures and keep up with the latest research long after you graduate,” she said. “It’s one more way to stay engaged with and con-

income and parents’ occupations when making admissions decisions. In order to evaluate the applicant needblind, universities such as Duke and UNC do not look at this information. Christoph Guttentag, dean of undergraduate admissions at Duke, said accepting low-income students diversifies the student body, placing students from very different upbringings together on the same campus. Although the Office of Undergraduate Admissions does not view an applicant’s financial profile, other parts of their application can give an impression of how their background can contribute to the student body, he added. “We’re not aware of a student’s family income at any point in the admissions process, since we don’t have access to their financial aid application, but we try to infer something about a student’s socioeconomic status from the other information available in the application,” Guttentag said. “In other words, we do our best to take into account in the admissions process anytime an applicant has experienced a challenge, faced some adversity, or will bring a useful or fresh perspective to the community.” Barbara Polk, senior associate director of admissions at UNC, said die admissions process at her institution does consider the background of a student when evaluating an application, but socioeconomic factors alone cannot earn a

For a team very few

people stood by, how about a standing ovation? Here’s something you haven’t seen much of lately: Congratulatory praise for a team that has been the focus of one of the most unfair, unforgiving and unfortunate media spectacles in our nation’s history. But it’s never too late to give a little credit where more than a little credit is due. Against ail odds, this year’s Duke Men’s Lacrosse Blue Devils banded together as a team, kept their focus on the field and went 17-3 for the season. They won the ACC Championship and earned their place in the NCAA National Championship game. Off the field, they scored pretty well, too: A team CPA of 3.4 and a 100% graduation rate for the fourth year in a row. Not to mention, over 570 community-service hours logged on behalf of worthy organizations like the Ronald McDonald House. On behalf of former Duke University athletes and friends and supporters of the Duke Men’s Lacrosse Program, we salute this outstanding -not to mention, upstanding— group of young men and their families for standing tall during extraordinarily difficult circumstances over the past 15 months.

Congratulations Duke Men’s Lacrosse Team and their families.

Review of Schachner makes history at NCAAs AD Alieva by

Meredith Shiner THE CHRONICLE

Before the third round of the NCAA tournament, interim head coach Brad Sparling left a note in Michael Schachner’s bag. “Mike—l believe in you. You’re a great player. Go out and have fun today.” Little did Sparling how great Schachner would be, or how much fun he would have Friday at the Golden Horseshoe GolfClub Gold Course in Williamsburg, Va. Schachner birdied 11 of the first 14 holes, and finished the day at 10-under, propelling him from 120th to 14th on the leaderboard. In the process, he set the NCAA championship record-low with a round of 60. Only four other players in NCAA history have carded 60s. “It was an unbelievable round,” Sparling said. “It was really exciting not only to watch it, but also to be a part of it.” And as Sparling said, Schachner’s performance was exactly what the Blue Devils needed. After Day One, Duke was in 29th place of 30 teams. By the end of Day Three buoyed by Schachner’s score—the Blue Devils had jumped to 10th place, making the cut and advancing to the final round, where they would finish 13th. But Schachner’s historic 18 holes meant more to the team than a number on a scorecard or place on the leader

underway University names regular committee by

Meredith Shiner THE CHRONICLE

The University announced Friday that President Richard Brodhead has appointed a committee for the regular review ofDirector ofAthletics Joe Alieva. Performance reviews of senioradministrators, required by the Faculty Handbook, are typically conducted every five years and result in the presentation of a confidential report to the president. Alieva, who has held his position since 1998 when he was hired by former president Nan Keohane, is due for a regular review. The committee, chaired by Trustee Emeritus Harold Yoh, Engineering ‘5B, is comprised of faculty members, administrators and trustees. “The process is just a matter of gathering information and talking to many people within the University community,” Yoh said. “It does not have to do with [Alieva] continuing on or not. It’s just a presentation of what we believe about the job that’s been done and what our expectations should be.” A member of Joe Alieva note on the Director of Athletics Review Committee is James Coleman, who chaired the Lacrosse Ad Hoc Review Committee in the spring of 2006. The Ad Hoc Committee was responsible for the investigation into the conduct of the lacrosse team—and the subsequent University response —in the five years preceding the March 13, 2006 incident in which three members of the team were indicted on charges of sexual assault. The report found thatadministrators responsible for the athletic department failed to “adequately convey to [thenhead coach Mike] Pressler any sense of alarm” in regards to the team’s off-thefield behavior and questioned the decision to give Pressler an unprecedented contract extension. The Committee will be collecting information until June 22, and Yoh said he hoped to be finished with the process as soon as possible, presenting findings to Brodhead near the end of July. “These reviews are done very conscientiously at Duke, and I will value the committee’s findings,” Brodhead wrote in an e-mail.

Seniors still unsure of ‘what’s next’ by

MeredithShiner THE CHRONICLE

Riding in the backseat of a taxicab in the nation’s capitol last Wednesday, Duke head coach John Danowski and his son Matt learned that their up-anddown ride with Duke lacrosse could be taking yet another dramatic turn. The two Danowskis were in Washington D.C. for the Tewaaraton Award banquet, where Matt was named the National Player of the Year. It seemed like a fitting end to the career of one of the most prolific points scorers in ACC history—except that it might not be. During that one brief taxi ride, John Danowski received the phone call informing him that the NCAA had granted 33 of his players, including Matt, with an extra year of eligibility. “I looked at [Matt] and we were like, ‘What does this mean?’” the coach said. “What’s next?” Over a week has passed since the NCAA student-athletereinstatement staff granted Duke’s season-of-competition waiver request for non-senior players sidelined in the 2005-2006 season, and the question of “What’s next?” is still dangling. The seniors from the 2006-2007 Duke squad scheduled a trip to Mexico well before this decision came down, and did not return to the United States until early Wednesday morning. Although they were able to escape to the beach, out of the reach of media, for a week, they cannot avoid the difficult decisions that lie ahead. Each player in this year’s senior class graduated, many have jobs already lined up and one was SEE M. LAX ON PAGE

Donovan returns to UF after 6 magical days by

Travis Reed

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ORLANDO, Fla.

Billy Donovan is

out in Orlando, and his cold feet could cost both him and the Magic. The Magic finally let Donovan out of a

|5.5-million annual deal late Wednesday night after news broke days ago he was having second thoughts. Donovan may have stained a good reputation built on two straight championships at Florida.

“I realized in less than 24 hours after contract with the Magic that I had made a mistake that had nothing to do with the Magic,” Donovan said in a statement Wednesday night. “Instead, I realized that, in my heart, I belonged in college basketball. As soon as I realized that, I contacted the Magic immediately to let them know.” Orlando is still coachless, and could miss out on second choice Stan Van Gundy if the Sacramento Kings hire him quickly. Donovan walked out ofhis first NBAjob after just six days to return to Gainesville. “Although this has been a difficult time for everyone, for which I am profoundly sorry, in my heart I know that this is the right thing for the Magic and for me,” Donovan said. Van Gundy, a former Heat coach and current adviser to Pat Riley, has said publicly he would love the Orlando job, but the Kings confirmed Wednesday that Van Gundy was in Sacramento for discussions about becoming their head coach. Van Gundy is under contract for another year

signing a

in Miami, and the Heat reportedly want compensation if the division rival Magic hire him. Sacramento might not have to pay such a penalty.

The Magic wouldn’t discuss terms of the Donovan deal, but said in a written statement Wednesday his hiring proved the team is “committed to winning a championship.” “We have the legal right to hold Billy to the contract he signed, but with him having a change ofheart about leaving college basketball, we want him at the University of Florida,” the Magic said. “We have granted him permission to break his commitment and return to the Gators.” Florida Director of Athletics Jeremy Foley said of Donovan’s return, “It’s great news for the Gators.” Foley withheldfurther comment until a Thursday morning news conference. Magic fans met Donovan with rousing applause at a nationally televised news conference Friday as he replaced Brian Hill. Donovan said he agonized over the jump to the NBA, but wanted a new challenge. He promised to bring passion to the pros and saw in the Magic a young team with enough talent and salary cap room to succeed where most college coaches failed. Donovan always wanted to try the NBA, and the Magic job was perfect: five years, $27.5 million, and his family could even stay in Gainesville. Donovan was set to sign a seven-year contract worth approximately $3.5 million annually with Florida, a deal that was nearly finished when he agreed to coach the Magic.

decision was not made before graduation and the team members received their degrees, their only option if they want to return to school and play lacrosse is to enroll as graduate students, John Danowski said. “There are a lot ofissues here,” he said. “First, is there a program that the students are interested in? If you’re not interested in returning to school, then lacrosse is really secondary. Second, is it possible to gain acceptance into those programs? And third, would it be financially feasible for your family to support your return?” One of the most difficult aspects of the choices these players must make, and of the two subsequent

year? I think the answer is obvious that I’d want Zack,” Danowski said. “But these are all nice problems to have.” Danowski, however, said he is confident in the program’s ability to recruit new players, even if current sophomores, juniors and seniors opt for their additional year of eligibility. Senior Associate Director of Athletics Chris Kennedy, who was one of the Duke administrators responsible in the petition for the waiver, also noted the difference in how the team might approach scheduling if a significant portion of last season’s seniors returns. “It changes how you schedule—if you have five of those seniors back next year, you’re going to want to play a much tougher schedule,” Kennedy said. Danowski believes five or six students will choose to return to Duke, and that “it’s Duke or nowhere” for most of the players, who are free to use their additional years of eligibility at any school outside of the ACC (because a transfer in-conference requires a player to sit out a year). As for a timetable of when the players will make their decisions, Danowski said he had not talked to them since they departed for Mexico, but that he was not going to pressure them into making any hasty decisions. “With everything those kids have been through —the negative stereotypes, the “wanted” posters, the pot-bangers, their names taken off the website—they can take as much time as they want,” Danowski said. “If they need the summer to make that decision, I’ll wait with them. This is their school, their program.” When asked how he felt about his son returning, the older Danowski said the decision of “what’s next” is completely out of his hands. “If he thinks that this is the best opportunity for him at this point in his life, then absolutely. But if he thinks it’s time for him to walk away, then that’s what I want as a father,” he said. “It’s the same thing as when he was being recruited. I stepped away and let him choose where he wanted to go and he made a great choice.”

M.GOLF FROM PAGE 9 board could express In March, the Blue Devils lost their head coach of 34 Jears, Rod Myers, to leukemia, and they wanted to do something special this postseason to honor his memory. Both Schachner and Sparling said they felt the late coach’s presence with them on the links Friday. “Around hole seven or eight, after I had made a couple of birdies in a row, I starting thinking how much he would love to be out here watching today,” Schachner said of his former coach. “I know he was looking down on us and probably helping me will some of those putts in. We miss him. He was such a huge person to Duke golf and a father away from home for most of us. “To play well like this on this stage with him looking down on us is special and I will remember it forever.” Around the 12th hole, Sparling said he approached Myers’ widow, Nancy, and whispered in her ear that the coach was “right on Michael’s shoulder.” Schachner, who earned Division I honorable mention All-American honors Wednesday, went 5-over Saturday to finish the tournament with a 3-over 283, good for a tie for 31st place. Freshman Adam Long turned in the Blue Devils’ best score on the final day, firing a 1-over 71 after hitting 15 greens in the round. Long, who finished at 11-over for the week, placed 60th. Both Jake Grodzinsky and Clark Klaasen turned in 9over 289 to put themselves in a tie for 53rd. Grodzinsky, playing in his final tournament as a Blue Devil, bogeyed his first four holes Saturday before playing the rest of the course at even-par en route to a 4-over 74. Michael Quagliano rounded out the Duke roster, going 17-over for the week and placing in 77th. With a team score of 1140, the Blue Devils posted their lowest-ever four-round score in the NCAA championship, besting their previous mark by 22 strokes.

pleased with how his team handled itself even in the most difficult of times. “It has been a very difficult spring, but the guys have worked really hard, both academically and on the course,” Sparling said. “I could not be more proud of them.”

What’s more, the NCAA appears to have reversed its stance on the whole matter. When Duke’s Department ofAthletics first approached the NCAA last spring, the powers that be said they would not grant an extra year of eligibility at that point because they believed the players were responsible for the cancellation of the season. It took months of due process and the revelation of major judicial irregularities for the NCAA to change its mind last week. The NCAA’s most recent conclusion is unexpected, bold and really quite commend-

The Cavs sixth man: gestalt

Anyone

who is still following the NBA finals at this point in the season has probably heard the analysts’ predictions. Sure, the Cavs might last five or six games against the Spurs, but in the end Cleveland

stands little chance. And by simply looking at the rosters of the two teams, it would be hard to argue that the Spurs don’t have a group of more talented players. So how is it then that Cleveland could have a lIICK alexandet realistic chance of com- stay hungry, stay foolish ing away with its first championship ever? The Cavs have something that you wouldn’t be able to find listed on their roster. What the Cavs have is what my high school tennis coach liked to call gestalt. Sometimes it’s possible for a group of players —or, more generally speaking, people —to work together, communicate effectively and complement each other so that in the end, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This idea should be a key ingredient in the makeup of any team. When individuals don’tput the interest of their team first, however, the concept of gestalt gets lost And in the NBA, when each player on a team is also thinking about the fixture of his own individual career or the attention that he will receive from the media, it’s easy to see how this could happen. When watching the Cavs play, however, one would never guess thatany player on the team has anything but the team’s interest in mind. The way that each player recognizes his strength, contributes to the team in his own way and communicates effectively with all ofhis teammates around him is a treat to watch. The team has a small rookie from Texas who is good at shooting outside shots. They have an ecstatic Brazilian who is good at shutting down big guys in the low post They have a seven-foot-three Lithuanian who towers over most people on the court and has nice touch around the rim. And, of course, they have a 22-year-old basketball phenomenon from just outside of Cleveland who is able to take control of a game in theblink of an eye.
