Students facing copyright infringement suits related to music downloading may have new legal alternatives. A recent court case called into question one of the Recording Industry Association ofAmerica’s main legal arguments used to justify its prosecution of alleged music pirates. A U.S. District Court in Connecticut ruled last month in Atlantic v. Brennan that making copyrighted works available on the Internet does not, by itself, constitute copyright infringement. In her opinion, Judge Janet Bond Arterton wrote that plaintiffs in copyright infringement cases must establish both that they own the copyright and that the copyrighted works were indeed duplicated and not just made available. Arterton ruled that the RIAA failed to do this because it offered no evidence that defendant Christopher Brennan, a senior at Boston University, had actually distributed the copyrighted works in question. This decision may have implications for cases currently pending against students at Duke and other universities. Last Friday, a motion to dismiss the RIAA’s charges against Christopher Vines, an Indiana University sophomore, cited the ruling in Atlantic v. Brennan.

Alumnus and blogger Tucker Max, Law ’Ol, returned to campus Monday night to discuss his infamous stories of drunken exploits and newfound celebrity and to offer advice to a crowd of undergraduates. “I used to pay this school for f—ing tuition and now you’re paying me to come speak,” he told the full house in Page Auditorium. “You guys are f—ing suckers.” Max’s speech, sponsored by the Duke University Union, consisted of a series of anecdotes about binge drinking in Can cun, sleeping with “slutty girls” across the country and renouncing a career in law to develop his personal site, www.TuckerMax.com.

“I was in this club, out-of-my-mind hammered and hooking up with this girl,” began one ofMax’s typical stories, which frequendy climaxed somewhere between early evening sobriety and the next day’s hangover. After a series of“stories about condoms” and the like, Max moved on to discuss his career as a blogger, which he said he stumbled into after dismissing plans of becoming a lawyer after graduation. The site has attracted substantial publicity and spawned book and television deals. But Max said his success is due, in part, to luck—not because he is unusually original. “Of my friends, I’m maybe the third or SEE MAX ON PAGE

When Duke enlarges its wireless network this Fall, students will be able to access the Internet more quickly and from more locations than ever before. Using more than 2,500 next-generation. wireless access points and covering more than 6 million square feet on campus, Duke administrators said they hope the new wireless initiative will provide innovative ways for students to interact and learn in classrooms. Cisco Systems announced Feb. 19 that it would be the provider of the access points to create the largest wireless network ofits kind in the world at Duke. “Expanding wireless into the residence halls isn’t about some arbitrary goal of having the largest or newest network, but rather about providing the necessary infrastructure to make sure those academic applications can be accessed wherever our students might be on the Duke campus,” Tracy Futhey, vice president for information technology and chief information officer, wrote in an e-mail. “As faculty and students increasingly rely on video, our wireless network infrastructure needs to be able to handle those more

demanding applications.” Duke currently has approximately

1.700 wireless access points supporting the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers’ 802.1 la/b/g protocol. These 1.700access points will be replaced by the Cisco Aironet 1250 access points, listed at SEE WIRELESS ON PAGE 6

Duke not spuming tobacco funds Some schools reject money but UNC9 X/Fa, Duke staying put ,

A historic marker stands at the gates of East Campus as the former Liggett and Myers factory downtown looms in the distance.

Duke’s entrenchment in tobacco money has varied over the past century of University history. The Duke family, whose fortune originated from dominance of the cigarette market, founded today’s East Campus—then the Woman’s College for Trinity College—with tobacco money, and the names ofother local tobacco magnates, such as Julian Carr, still dot campus. The funding of the University’s endowment, however, was transferred from profits from the family’s hydroelectric company, said University Archivist Tim Pyatt, Trinity ‘Bl. And although some schools across the country have decided to stop accepting all funding from corporate tobacco companies, Duke’s tobacco roots still exist, as the University continues to allow research-directed grants. The most notable of these donations was for the Cen-

ter for Nicotine and Smoking Cessation Research at the Duke University Medical Center. A donation from tobacco giant Philip Morris USA in June 2004 gave Duke $l5 million in three annual $5-million installments, according to a news release. James Siedow, vice provost for research and a professor of biology, wrote in an e-mail that the majority of the center’s funding is directed towards several grants for Jed Rose, director of the Duke Nicotine Research Program, a research professor of biological psychiatry and co-creator of the nicotine patch. “Duke medical school accepts sponsored research agreements from a considerable number of corporate sponsors,” Dr. Sanders Williams, vice chancellor for academic affairs at the Medical Center, wrote in an e-mail.

Aspirin causes City debates approaches to crime members say problem police headache Council may be exaggerated by media Officers from both the Durham Police Department and the Duke University Police Department responded to reports early Monday morning of a possible narcotics violation by a student in Bell Tower Residence Hall, sources confirmed. DUPD Maj. Gloria Graham said a residence coordinator contacted police about the violation, but when officers arrived on site and tested the substance in question they determined that it was aspirin. No arrest was made and officers left the building at about 1:30 a.m., students said. Chris Ellis, the residence coordinatorfor Bell Tower, Blackwell and Randolph dormitories, did not respond to requests for comment Monday and Larry Moneta, vice president for student affairs, said he was unaware of the incident.

Is Durham a dangerous city infested by muggers and murderers, or is it unfairly labeled so by wealthy residents of safer cities? No matter how one answers the question, crime in Durham is an issue that never suffers from a shortage of attention. “We do have challenges around crime in Durham,” said former City Council member Thomas Stith, who made crime the central focus ofhis failed campaign against Mayor Bill Bell last November. “I get passionate when people say it is Just perception, because people are losing their lives.... Unless we see significant changes in strategy, it is just going to stay the same.”

Measuring the problem Some City Council members said crime in the city is less of a problem than is perceived. “For whatever reason, [Durham’s crime] has been overstated in the media,” City Council member Mike Woodard said. “We compare ourselves to about 10 cities in the Southeast that are about our size, and we are compared very favorably.” Morgan Quitno Press ranks Durham the fifth most dangerous city in North Carolina, behind less-populated cities like Fayetteville and Wilmington. In 2006, there were more homicides in Winston-Salem than in Durham, according to the FBI. The Durham city Web site also compares the city’s crime statistics with other urban areas. Stith said statistical comparison is not enough and called for city leaders to take responsibility for crime in Durham. “You can look at the numbers for crime and say they are similar to other cities, but there is a person behind those numbers,” he said. Council member Diane Catotti said the fact that Dur-

THE CHRONICLE . Since National Coming Out Day in October, the “Love Love” T-shirts given out on the West Campus Plaza have become a übiquitous item around (he University. But the LGBT presence on campus extends beyond ads for Fabulous Fridays and National Coming Out Day. The community is also represented by a select although relatively unknown group of advocates known as the LGBT Task Force that works with many oncampus organizations. The Task Force implements recommendations for change in the Universitywide environment in support of LGBT students, staff and faculty. Most recently, the group which includes students, faculty and staff—asserted its presence in January by teaming with Residence Life and Housing Services to establish a gender-neutral restroom in Kilgo Quadrangle for next Fall. The decision is in part a result of the recent expansion of the University’s nondiscrimination policy to include “gender identity” and change “sexual prefer=

—

ence” to “sexual orientation.” “We are [currently] supporting focus groups for LGBT faculty to leant more about issues and challenges facing them and what we can do to help improve the climate in our academic setting,” said Nancy Allen, vice provost for faculty diversity and faculty development, who is working with the Task Force on these issues. The Task Force was established in 1991 by former president Keith Brodie in response to the Board of Trustees’ 1989 decision to amend the nondiscrimination policy to include “sexual preference.” Task Force Co-chair Damon Seils, a senior research analyst for the Duke Clinical Research Institute, said the diverse group has since worked with the Office of the President, Human Resources, the Office of Student Affairs and Chapel administrators on various LGBT policies. “The Task Force recruits new members every year, depending on the constituencies that need greater representation,” he said.

THE CHRONICLE

Students prone to misplacing their DukeCards must now be more careful—or pay the full price. In recent months, the DukeCard Office has regularly been out of temporary cards, students said, making borrowing a card a less reliable option than purchasing a replacement. “I’ve tried to get a temp card four times and they always tell me they are out for the week,” said sophomore Anjali B.hatia. Juniors Julia Foran and Amanda Patterson said this shortage has been a persistent problem for several months. In January, they tried on three occasions to pick up temporary cards. “Each time we were told they were ‘fresh out,’” Foran said. But senior Meredith McAdams said when she lost her DukeCard she was told there had been a change in policy. “They told me that they were no longer doing temporary cards,” she said. Matthew Drummond, director

of the DukeCard Office, wrote in an e-mail that the cards are still being issued but are now less available. “We are not out of temporary cards, but we are low,” he said. Drummond said the office would never intentionally withhold temporary cards from students but added that cards are often taken out of circulation for several days after they are returned to prevent mixing up different students’ transactions. A replacement DukeCard costs $lO, but temporary cards are issued for 48 hours at no cost. Temporary cards allow holders to access all of their accounts except ePrint. If the cards are not returned, borrowers are fined $25. According to the DukeCard Web site, “Temporaiy DukeCards give you time to locate a missing DukeCard.” Some students also use them as a quick fix. “Sometimes I just try to get temporaries when I don’t feel like looking for my card,” said sopho-

more Alyssa Kuhn, who is currently using her eighth DukeCard.

Kuhn added that she asked for a temporary card five or six times this semester but found them to be unavailable each time. Freshman Isaac Dunkelberger, who replaced his card for the first time last week, said he had never heard of the temporary card policy. “They don’t broadcast that at all,” he said. “If they would have brought that up I’d probably have done that instead. I really wanted to be one of those kids who made it all four years without getting a new one.” Drummond said the DukeCard Office has plans to add about 25 temporary cards to the pool, making borrowing easier. He added that ultimately it is up to the students to keep track of their cards. “The back of the DukeCard states, ‘lt should be carried with you at all times,”’ Drummond said. “That responsibility lies with the cardholder.”

DukeOUT series takes risks, seeks to snag sponsor by

Andrew Hibbard THE CHRONICLE

Film series tend to be quiet affairs on campus, but the new “Love Love” series has managed to garner some attention for the highly graphic content of one film. Following the success of the Love Love T-shirt campaign" last semester, DukeOUT—the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual and queer group for graduate and professional students—organized the film series set to the theme of gay relationships. The six-film series sparked interest on campus with the presentation of its first film, John Cameron Mitchell’s “Shortbus, ”Feb. 20 in Griffith Theater. Since then, one other film has been shown and four more are scheduled throughout the remainder of the semester. “Shortbus” contains graphic depictions of sex and a cast of characters including a dominatrix, a sex therapist and a sexually-liberal gay couple. DukeOUT Chair Mayuresh Tapale, a second-year student at the Fuqua School of Business, said the organization prepared for any controversy associated with the film by issuing a warning on flyers and at the start of the film. Only students older than 18 were permitted to attend. Still, because of the sexual content, Tapale said the group considered not showing the film, especially after the controversy that resulted from last month’s Sex Workers’ Art Show, but Tapale said the group decided to press on because ofits interpretation of the film. “What you’re showing in the film is some kind of love,” he said. “It wasn’tabout sexually explicit material. It was about relationships and people. So in the end we decided to go ahead and show the film because it =

was about more than sex.” In addition to issuing warnings for any audience members potentially offended by the film, DukeOUT invited an expert on sexually explicit material from the University ofNorth Carolina at Chapel Hill to lead a conversation following the screening. Screen/Society, a branch ofDuke’s film/ video/digital program, is a facilitatorfor the series, but chose not to associate its name with “Shortbus” after seeing a screening of the film. FVD Director David Paletz, a professor of political science, said he was worried about the content because parts of the film were potentially offensive to viewers. “The issue was not, Is the film to be shown or not?” Paletz said. “I just want to make it very clear that there was no censorship. I do not believe in censorship, and it’s very important to understand that Screen/ Society is not a censoring organization. If we had seen it sooner, we would never have been involved in that situation.” In spite of the blip, James Ong, a graduate student in philosophy, a co-organizer for theseries and memberof DukeOUT, said the film elicited positive responses, and DukeOUT was able to get its message across,. “We wanted to say you don’t only have to be gay in couples. We wanted to say that love isn’t just romantic love. Whatever other type of love there is, it is complicated by this other sort of love,” Ong said. “People will have certain views about the object of your love. The fact [is] that for heterosexuals, they don’t find the tension in society [or] in themselves. These films really capture a lot of struggles—and a lot of the joys as well—that LGBTs experience. It turned out in the end to be surprisingly good.” Underlying the film series are the im-

During the last three years, however, the Multicultural Center—which administers the funds—has been phasing out funding for graduate organizations.

Kevin Miller, assistant director of communications infrastructure for the Office of Information Technology, said the new access points will improve performance and range for laptops using the current 802.1 Ig protocol. In a study done by OIT in Epworth Residence Hall this fall, a laptop with a current-generation wireless card reached 0.33 megabytes per second when connected 50 feet away from a current wireless access point. The new access point was able to provide 5.03 Mbps on the same laptop. “The wireless network will enable a natural amplification of current capabilities, such as rapid exchange ofaudio and video media,” Miller wrote in an e-mail. “Given the size of most classrooms, it’s impractical for instructors and professors to rely on large media; we look forward to enabling these kinds of uses with the new wireless network.” Millersaid only 800 of the 2,500 new access points will be placed in new locations on campus. “The 800 [access points] are primarily targeted for residence dorms in the East and West campus[es],” he said. “If a location that needs coverage is identified, we will go back and add it, but we only expect a handful of those locations.” The majority of the current wireless access points will be removed from campus, but some will be put into use in areas that lacked wireless. “We plan to use some older equipment to provide coverage in residence halls on Central Campus until the renovation of

Since its founding, the Task Force has reached many milestones in campus awareness and policy changes, Seils said, noting the adoption of “same-sex spousal equivalent benefits” for University and Duke University Health System employees and the establishment of theLGBT Center. Unlike the center, which mainly focuses on awareness and social opportunities for LGBT students, the Task Force actively seeks campus-wide reform on gender issues, said Janie Long, the center’s director and a Task Force member. “They are not just a group of people who sit around making decisions in isolation,” she said. Efforts exclusive to the Task Force include establishing appropriate services for students, staff and faculty and developing educational programs for the entire Duke community. In 1996, for example, the Task Force worked with the Arts and Sciences Council to approve a program in the Study of Sexualities. Four years later, with the committee’s counsel, the Chapel began to allow same-sex union ceremonies. The group also joined Long and the Center in the North Carolina Pride Parade, the North Carolina Equality Conference and National Coming Out Day events on the West Campus Plaza. Although Seils said he is satisfied with the Task Force’s progress so far, he added that it is now focusing on improving the University climate for LGBT faculty. “Undergraduate, graduate and professional students and alumni all have the opportunity to evaluate practices and contribute to the University’s diversity,” he said.

CRIME from page 3 One of the most famous examples of crime-prevention strategy was the innovative policing tactics employed by then-mayor Rudy Giuliani in New York City during the 19905. “The best systems, like the one in New York City, use a lot of analysis to determine where crime is occurring and where to allocate resources,” said Joel Rosch, a senior research scholar at Duke’s Center for Child Family and Policy who previously worked for the state police in North Carolina. Giuliani and the New York City Police Department developed CompStat, a strategy of tracking where crime is occurring and using software to manage data. They also relied on community policing and the “broken windows” theory, which emphasizes cracking down on minor offenses to deter more serious crimes. Bell said he believes the city has effective strategies in place to reduce its crime problem. He added that the Durham Police Department is using Crime Mapper, a software system to track where crime is occurring. DPD has used the technology to pinpoint the “Durham Bullseye,” at the intersection of Driver Street and Andrew Avenue in northeast-central Durham, as the spot where the highest concentration of crime occurs. But Bell said DPD and its software are only part of the

Max said he now occupies “that weird somewhere between nobody and a real celebrity” and announced his plans to release a movie based on his New York Times bestselling book, “I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell,” abound this time next year. Following the speech, Max opened up thefloor for questions from students that ranged from “How many STDs do you have?” to “How many girls have you actually slept with?” “I literally have no idea. I round to the nearest hundred,” Max said in response to the latter question. “I lost count somewhere around 50, 60 and 70 and that was maybe in my first or second year oflaw school.” Although Max said it may come as a surprise to his college-aged audience, he does, in fact, hope to marry eventually. Students said Max’s speech was hilariousand on-par with his usual antics, as described on his site and in his book. “Itwas up to hype,” said Justin Gheen, a junior at theUniversity ofNorth Carolina at Charlotte, who drove more than two hours to see Max. “It’s more than the story, it’s the lifestyle. It just encourages you to drink more and care less.” Although many studentssaid Max’s stories were too extreme to be relatable, they were still entertaining and even inspiring for some party-hard students in the crowd. But others said Max’s expletive-laden and raunchy speech may have been offensive to audience members. “As a comedian, I thought it was really funny,” sophomore Dillon Barron said. “As a human being, I was really offended.” DUU Major Speakers Director Isel Del Valle, a senior, said audiences’ applause and laughter reflected the success of the event, but noted that the speech may have been better received among men than among women.

“It is not strictly something you are going to solve with law enforcement—there has got to be community buy-in, and that is why we talk about it so much,” he said. Another school of thought on crime prevention is that innovative policing strategies have very little impact. Durham will never be able to invest as much money in crime prevention as New York City, Cook said. “Sure, [New York’s approaches] were quite innovative, but the sheer size of the police force in New York City is impressive,” Cook said. “It helps to be a wealthy city, and it would help Durham to have more resources.” Woodard added that Police Chief Jose Lopez could always use more police officers. He noted, however, that crime-prevendon strategies can help to identify demographic and geographic informadon about criminals. “You will have spikes [in crime] for different reasons, but good data and good police work led us to find that all those [recent] crimes were caused by a handful of people,” Woodard said. “We arrested them, got them off the street and we are back to a normal level.” For example, most murderers in Durham fit a very specific socioeconomic, gender and racial profile, Rosch said. “All these murders are taking place in some neighborhood that is pretty isolated from the Duke campus,” he added.

Both Williams and Bill Phelps, a spokesperson for Philip Morris, emphasized that the money was given without caveats that could influence the findings. For example, Philip Morris cannot veto publication of research from the center. “We give grants to universities for a variety of reasons,” Phelps said. “Some [grants] in the past have been for smoking- and health-related research. We have given a grant to Duke... that is related to our program which is called cessation.” However, in November, the University of Texas at Austin’s McCombs School of Business announced it would no longer accept money from Altria, Philip Morris USA’s parent company. The New York Times reported that administrators grew uncomfortable when the corporation requested an additional role in student events.

lack of involvement in the undergraduate world occurs as a matter of practice rather than because of a steadfast rule, saidjohn Burness, seniorvice president for public affairs and government relations. “It has to do with not constraining the investment flexibility of the University with the endowment,” he said. “The other thing is, sometimes, [a rule]’s almost impossible to enforce.” In the past, there have been bans on investments due to political strife, but those policies are enacted by the Board ofTrustees. This includes a prohibition oh investments in companies doing business with Sudan approved this weekend.

Erwin Chemerinsky, Alston and Bird professor of law and professor of political science, said he agreed with the RIAA’s judgment of the current law regarding copyright infringement.

“The government is allowed to. prohibit people from taking actions that contribute to infringement of copyrights,” Chemerinsky said, cit-

ing the Supreme Court case MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster. ‘To my knowledge... [the court in Atlantic

Brennan would actually help students with pending infringement cases. “Certainly this will give them a precedent to be able to argue that they can’t be held liable,” he said. “Whether other courts will follow, it’s too soon to know.” Kip Frey, an adjunct professor at the Sanford Institute ofPublic Policy who specializes in intellectual property, said although the RIAA’s legal arguments appear to be solid, it is questionable whether the damages being claimed are appropriate. A student who setded with the RIAA, who asked not to be named, said the lawsuits threatened against many students claimed up to $300,000 in damages. He said that setdements, generally ranging from $3,000 to $5,000, were tempting for many students threatened with litigation. The student added that he was frustrated with the University’s response, noting that when other universities have refused to divulge students’ names, the RIAA has backed off. “I believe [the RIAA has] a valid claim... but they’re going after kids who have to go their parents,” the student said. “It’s so easy just to settle and not worry about it, but in reality most people wish they could fight it.”

THE ANATOMY OF THE SHOT

How sharpshooters like Matt Danowski or Zach Greer pull off their highlight-reel strikes by

Joe Drews

THE CHRONICLE

The average sports fan might have seen Matt Danowski’s behind-the-back, over-the-shoulder shot against Maryland in SportsCenter’s Top 10 Plays this weekend, admiring it for its flash as it was sandwiched between basketball highlights. What the average observer might not know, however, is that the reigning Tewaaraton Trophy winner can launch the ball up to 100 miles per hour. “Want to know .why?” sophomore Max Quinzani asked before revealing Danowski’s secret. “Because he has extra-long arms. I have no idea [why that helps], but his arms hang down to his knees. I’m stumpy. I will never have a hard shot.” Although the highlight-reel flick past Terrapin goalie Jason Carter in Duke’s 15-7 victory Saturday was not the most conventional shot, it demonstrated the versatility ofattackmen in lacrosse capitalize and the ability of players like Danowski to creatively on opportunities.

“He just reacted,” head coach John Danowski said. “He caught a ball that he’s probably going to fall in the crease anyway, so he might as well shoot it.” Matt Danowski’s quick reaction on that play was just one of many examples of the wide variety of shots that are possible in lacrosse. He said it is the toughest shot to make in the game the ability to release a good shot while sprinting down the field and being chased by defenders. But it’s also his favorite. A slightly easier, but equally important, shot is what is known as “turning the corner.” The attackman comes from behind the cage, dips his inside shoulder to get around his defenseman and then fires the ball past both him and the goalie. Danowski said Quinzani, who has recorded back-to-back hat tricks against Maryland and Vermont, excels at this kind of shot. A rarer attempt, which generally only occurs during man-up situations, is when the players have a lot of room and time to shoot the ball. This allows the players to get set and take a couple them to wind up and get more velocity on —

Fans fill stands for victories Entering this season, there seemed to be a pervasive fear that the Cameron Crazies as we knew them were dead. At several games last year, the student section in Cameron Indoor Stadium was emptier than an Econ 55 lecture. With a few hundred students absent, the atmosphere was lousy, and this upset Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski and the Department ofAthletics. After a number of these games, Krzyzewski called -J— out the fans, wondering andrew where they were and saying t^ie env i ronment needed to return to the raucous w “Cameron of old.” As a response, the athletic department introduced draconian policies to enforce student attendance, such as threatening to give away tickets if students did not fill their 1,200-seat allotment. Just a few games into the season, though, students were cramming Cameron like they did in the eras of Battier and Laettner, and the policies were suspended. Did the athletic department compel students to go byforcing them to sign up in advance? It’s certainly possible. But it also could be that this year’s team won 22 of its first 23 games and averages more than 85 points per contest. Although it sounds obvious, it’s also clear Duke students will attend games in one of two situations when a team is really good or when games are inherently exciting or dramatic. When this year’s squad

took on an athletic Clemson team in the first major conference season, more than 100 students were turned away by the fire marshal. And it’s not just men’s basketball: there is evidence for this argument across Duke’s athletic programs. Two years ago, I stood jammed against my classmates in the stands ofCameron and watched former head coach Gail Goestenkors and her second-ranked squad dominate No. 1 Tennessee en route to an appearance in the National Championship game. As Duke ran all over the Lady Vols, the Crazies rained support upon their beloved squad and mercilessly mocked the opponent. But this year, under first-year head coach Joanne P. McCallie, wins have been harder to come by and games haven’t been nearly as well-played or exciting. When Pat Summit’s crew came to Cameron this January, the students did not. Sure, in the box score it was listed as a sellout, but that sellout wasn’t nearly as sold out —particularly in the student section—as previous sellouts. Just yesterday, when the Blue Devils had their worst loss in 25 years to North Carolina, it didn’t make the front page of this newspaper like the game did in the past three years. Not even the first page of the sports section. Look at this fact as a measure of the.team’s buzz on campus. Because this team has struggled more than it has in a long time, the student body at large simply doesn’t care about it. test of the

ACC race, but this the team home for the NCAA Tournament for the third time in four seasons. “It’s just like a boxer,” Maryland head coach Gary Williams said. “How many times does he get up after being knocked down? We’ve been knocked down a few times this year. [Sunday] night was a good example of that. We’ve come back, so I’m feeling today that we can come back.... This is a chance to prove how tough you are.” The Terrapins close the season at Virginia, the team Miami escaped Saturday in Coral Gables. The Hurricanes (20-8, 77), despite a midweek loss at Clemson, are one of the hottest teams in the conference, winning five of their last six. That stretch includes home victories over Duke and Maryland that came after Miami lost six of its first eight in conference. Those undulations during the course of the season are all-too familiar to other coaches in the ACC. “The roller coaster we’ve been on is no different than anyone else in our league,” Greenberg said. “That’s ACC basketball. Excluding one or two schools, there’s no smooth sailing. It’s going to be ajourney, it’s not a destination. There’s going to be potholes and roadblocks and detours, and it’s how you handle [them] that’s going to determine whether you have a chance in March.” Greenberg and his conference colleagues are all hoping to survive the ACC Touma-

It didn’t take long for March to get mad in the ACC. On the first of the month, both Duke and North Carolina erased double-digit deficits to get crucial road victories. One day later, Clemson came back from 20 points down to stun Maryland. College basketball’s ultimate month certainly came in like a lion to the ACC, but with a single week left in regular-season play, many teams are hoping it doesn’t go out like a lamb. No. 1 North Carolina and No. 6 Duke are locks for the NCAA Tournament. After the traditional powers, nothing about postseason play is certain. “The big thing we’re concerned about right now is just playing well the next 40 minutes,” Virginia Tech head coach Seth Greenberg said. “It’s redundant and boring, but everyone wants to get caught up in talking about the NCAA Tournament, and the best way to answer those questions is to win games.” Greenberg’s Hokies (17-11, 8-6 in the ACC) have seemingly come from nowhere to plant themselves within reach of the big dance. Virginia Tech followed up a threegame losing streak with three straight wins, including a comeback win at Maryland. That was the first of two devastating home defeats for the Terrapins (18-12, 8-7). Sunday’s 73-70 loss to Clemson was their third in four games. Maryland rebounded from a poor start to the season

YAFFE from page 9 So what does this mean? In

some

sense, it

says that Duke students are fair-weather fans, supporting the team when things are going well. And that would certainly be a fair criticism of the lagging support during last year’s basketball season. But can you really blame the average studentfor not attending a game when starting center Josh Mcßoberts looked like he didn’t want to be there, either? There will always be the diehards in every sport who will stay with a team through thick and thin and give up nights of homework or socializing to sleep outside and watch Duke take on Albany. But when Cameron doesn’t fill, it’s the 300 casual fans who aren’t coming. It’s these basketball fans who will be the first to tell you that they pay attention when there’s buzz about a team or a program or when the team is good. The most obvious example does not take place in Cameron but in Wallace Wade six or

seven Saturdays everyfall. Blue Devil football games are notoriously unattended by the student body not because of any dislike of football or lack of support for the program. Students don’t go because it’s not fun to root for a team while it is getting throttled. If head coach David Cutcliffe is able to build a program, the students will come. We all remember how the student body celebrated Duke’s lone victory of the last two seasons against Northwestern. It doesn’t matter what policies Joe Alieva or Larry Moneta or any other member of the administration attempts to implement to drag students from the Blue Zone to Wally Wade—they’ll go if the games are close. Just as the ludicrous validation policy had no real impact on student attendance, no future initiative will change the fan culture surrounding football. The only way to get those non-diehard students in the stands, the ones that make Cameron the best environment in college basketball, is to win. Plain and simple.

CHASE OLIVIERI/CHRONICLE FILE PHOTO

Attendance at theBlue Devils' home football games hasbeen sparse, in part due to the team's losing record.

SHOT from page 9 their shot. Nearer to the cage, the objective is to find the open spots, catch the ball close to the body and fire it past the goalie so he doesn’t have time to react. This kind of shot is senior Zack Greer’s specialty. He scored an NCAA-high 67 goals last season, largely thanks to the ability to convert inside. “Anywhere from within eight yards, nine yards, he’s just deadly,” senior goalie Dan Loftus said. “He’s so accurate. [Greer and Dariowski] are both different types of shooters, but they’re both obviously very successful at what they do.” Whereas Greer is known for his accuracy, Danowski clearly is more renowned for his velocity. Several players creditDanowski with having the hardest shot on the team. Danowski said that Quinzani’s analysis rang true. The attackman’s long arms help because they allow him to get more torque on the ball. In that respect, the perfect lacrosse shot is similar to comparable motions in other sports, such as a tennis or golf swing, a baseball pitch or a quarterback’s pass. The key is to transfer your weight from your back foot to your front foot so that you can use your lower body to power the shot. It’s also important to start off in an athletic position with bent knees, and to have your arms back far enough that your chin is touching your shoulder. After that, it’s all in the execution. Danowski steps into his shot as he releases, and he follows through so far that his back shoulderbits the other side ofhis head. He said one of the most important aspects is to have strong wrists and to snap them during the follow-through. Greer, on the other hand, worries less about winding upand getting a lot of velocity, instead focusing on getting a quick release.

SARA GUERRERO/CHRONICLE FILE

MidfielderBrad Ross tends to fire his shots overhead when given scoring opportunities for theBlue Devils. And while some players may have their favorite shots—whether it’s Danowski shooting on the run, Greer firing from close to the cage, Quinzani from behind or Brad Ross rifling an overhand attempt that doesn’t mean they can’t execute the others. Quinzani shot the ball underhand Saturday for the first time in his Duke career, and Danowski’s behind-the-back tally underscored that choosing the right shot is all about the scenario. “Certainly, I think everybody shoots differently,” John Danowski said. “It really depends on where you are on the field, and where your defenderis will determine what kind of shot you’re going to use.”

one member of the ticket had overwhelming support but their running mate lacked the necessary experience, that running mate will not undergo the same scrutiny that they might have faced had they run independently. Consequendy, this could lead to unqualified candidates being elected to positions on the coattails of another candidate’s popularity. The ticket structure also makes it harder for the president and executive vice president’s power to be properly checked. Student government leaders who run as part of a ticket would be less likely than independently elected leaders to check abuses of power.

However, the proposed ticket structure —similar to systems already in place at Georgetown and Harvard—also features potentially positive changes. Proponents argue a joint ticket for the president and executive vice president would ease concerns about synergy between the two most powerful members of DSG and likely result in greater communication between the president and the senate. Though this is plausible, this Board feels the aforementioned potential detriments of such an arrangement far outweigh these nominal benefits. Furthermore, although there is a benefit to having a good relationship between the president and executive

a handful of staff members, the lines became astronomically long for a good hour after the 9 p.m. opening. ID checks and ticket sales at every entrance to the library and at the bars themselves would have eliminated the traffic jam and allowed much more effective access to the enjoyable parts of the party (that is, alcoholic beverages). Instead, the long lines deterred substantial groups of people from attending the party and some from receiving their free senior drink (as well as minimized potential revenues, to say the least). Moreover, the timing of the party —from 9 p.m. to midnight—encouraged students to stop as just another pregame for their nightly activities. Indeed, Mi Gente even advertised the affair with the idea that partygoers should go to George’s afterwards. But if the event went longer and later and more activities and entertainment were planned for the duration, students would be encouraged to make the library their sole social destination for the evening. Even at its best, the library party is of limited utility: We’ve had only one per year for the last two years and I feel confident the library wouldn’t accept more frequent plans (such as a recurring monthly event) (full disclosure: this last claim is complete speculation on my part). So if this is the kind of event we should hold as the standard for on-campus fun, then Duke students can expect a bleak future. Unfortunately, the problem is much broader than the failings of a single event. As the greek population continues to decline and the administration increasingly regulates fraternity activities, the greek-dominated on-campus social life will only diminish. More fraternities are leaving campus and the unregistered groups have done quite well maintaining or increasing their size. Some on-campus fraternities are beginning to shrink, and selective

living groups, which arguably contribute less to the stereotypical social scene on campus, are growing. Section parties themselves even seem to be happening less and less. Maybe this is a good thing—after all, section parties get old quickly and are decreasingly enjoyable for both brothers and guests—so I’m not suggesting that we necessarily lament Duke’s slowly

changing dynamic. The point is simply that greeks are responsible for the lion’s share of social activities on campus. Besides studying, all independents can really do is hit the local dive bars or sit around and play drinking games with their friends. An atomistic social culture seems the only likely outcome of the status quo. So if fraternity life is headed the way of the dodo, then Duke students and administrators should start seriously planning for what social life will be in its absence. After all, one of Duke’s main selling points to prospective students is the “work hard, play hard” mantra that allegedly guarantees an exciting social atmosphere on campus. The last thing we want to do is become as lame as Harvard without being as good. Sports and milder weather can’t be our only comparative advantages. As I see it, three key steps need to be taken to address these problems. First, we can’t wait for the apotheosized Central Campus renovation; change must happen soon. This means making more space on campus and more funds available for holding social events, such as cost-effective Nasher and WaDuke events; expanding the entertainment infrastructure (e.g., bars/clubs) and allowing kegs on the quad and potentially in fraternity sections. Second, more groups should follow the lead of DukePlays and Mi Gente and start hosting major events on campus. Bringing out the whole student body only seems to happen with large-scale affairs, so this needs to occur more frequently and with regularity. Third, Duke could benefit from more academic-sponsored social events. If Pratt can do E-Kegs, why can’t Trinity have T-Kegs? Or, more appropriately, why can’t we have Econ-, PoliSci-, or PPSKegs? It’s truly embarrassing to be socially outdone by engineers. One of my professors loves to say that what distinguishes Duke students from others is their extraordinary entrepreneurial spirit. Let’s put it to the test, lest closed-door dorm-room parties and dive-bar mixers become all we have left.

But lest anyone be misled by the glowing press releases or fawning media coverage, it’s worth pointing out that this first-ever invocation of Duke’s investment responsibility policy represents a relatively small step in the right direction. That’s because Duke’s endowment is now structured in such away that we cannot know where or how a very large portion of the University’s |8.2-billion cash pile is invested. Going back to June 30,2007 —the last date for which detailed statistics were available—we see that of the $7.6 billion then in the Duke Management Company’s long-term pool, just $254 million was in U.S. stocks. An additional $1.9 billion was invested in foreign stocks (talk about outsourcing!), while $1.4 billion went toward “private” investments and another $3.2 billion was held in hedge funds. So when officials talk about the University’s “direct” investments, they are only referring to the first two types of investments, those that are in U.S. or foreign stocks. But at just $2.15 billion, those holdings don’t even constitute half of the University’s endowment. Only a few people—DUMAC employees, the president, some Trustees—know exactly where the rest of our money is invested, and even then their information may be grievously limited. The unfortunate truth is that in exchange for the promise of eye-popping returns, most hedge fund clients agree to be kept in the dark about how their fortunes are increased. What we can say is this: Most hedge funds operate overseas, many in the developing and dangerous

parts of the world that other investors avoid. Given that reality, it is a safe bet that although Duke officials have adopted the right and moral stance with respect to the University’s direct investments, these indirect holdings still touch one or more of the “heavily engaged companies” that are now cosmetically off limits. Although administrators would probably argue that the decision to limit our divestment to “direct” holdings represents an appropriate compromise between the need to seek the highest possible returns on our endowment (something Duke does exceptionally well) and the importance of a socially responsible outlook, I

disagree. I place this latest cop-out squarely within a decadeslong trend toward secrecy in Duke’s financial affairs. Consider Duke’s only precedent for this new Sudan policy, our divestment from South Africa in 1986. Back then, hedge funds still didn’t exist, meaning observers could be sure that the policy covered 100 percent of our endowment’s holdings. But also meaningful was the fact that officials released the Board of Trustees’ vote at the time (it was unanimous) —something they bizarrely declined to do following this weekend’s decision. In other words, the 22 years since Duke’s Board took on South Africa have left administrators less accessible, less responsive and less exposed to critiques from without and within. That may well be worth the tons of money we gain each year in exchange, but I’m not sold yet. Among other things, Duke’s financial opacity left us dangerously exposed when Amaranth, a global hedge fund, collapsed in September 2006. In fact, we only barely averted disaster by pulling our |B5-million investment out weeks before the $6-billion fund went up in smoke. It also leaves us behind our peers, many of whom have already had investment responsibility policies—along with active on-campus movements to enforce them—for decades. Yale, one of the schools Duke specifically compared itself to in a Feb. 29 press release, has been active in this regard since 1972, a stance Duke only adopted in 2004. In other words, although there should be no question that Duke’s newfound sense of global responsibility deserves heartfelt praise, we should not ignore the institutional obstacles that stand in the way of its full implementation.

Not just black and white

Most

Duke students are go-getters—young and eager to drink in the world, to make a handprint, and do some good. That’s why programs like Duin which I participated last summer, appeal to Engage, ke so many of us. But while our Duke education equips us with the solid foundation of knowledge to do good work in places that need our help, we can never predict how such an experience will change our view of the world—or ourselves civic engagement For the past two summers, I’ve dedicated myself part iv to pursuing civic engagement work at Muhuru Bay, a rural village in western Kenya. Much of my time there was spent organizing and processing the logistics and important questions associated with living in the village: How will we get water today? How do we deal with injuries given that the nearest hospital is an hour and 15 minutes away? What do we do if the male teachers only give their 50 girl students one lantern to study with again? How do I get girls who have never really had a voice to open up and talk to me? In my daily work, I often considered how my presence might make some people there uncomfortable. Then something happened that left me questioning my own discomfort. Standing on the porch of the house where two Caucasian friends and I were living, Mr. Mbani, the Kenyan local school principal who was visiting with us, proclaimed, “This will always be the house for the whites.” I was left dazed by the comment. Didn’t he see who was before him? Didn’t he acknowledge what I thought was an obvious identity—one I’d never doubted for as long as I can remember? I’ve been confidently checking the “Black/African American” box on formsand standardized tests all my life. And while my skin wasn’t as deep and dark as the rich ebony skin shared among the people in this village, I never considered myself white in any sense of the word. I immediately felt defensive and felt I had something to prove. But how does one prove her “blackness” when skin color alone doesn’t appear to make the case? In a matter of a moment, my racial identity was stripped away. Growing up in the southeastern United States, I’d long had plenty ofreminders that I was not white. Up until 10th grade, I went to school that was more than 80 percent white, and I can remember passing no fewer than three Confederate flags daily on the way to school. I was always hyperaware of how my hair, skin and facial features were different than those ofmy white friends and classmates. To now be called “white” confused and frustrated me. In the weeks that followed, Mr. Mbani was not the only Kenyan to call me or consider me white. One curious boy asked, “How did you get your color?” I struggled with what it meant to be African-American—and tried to draw on references to African ancestry and slavery generations back. He responded byasking from which country in Africa my family originated. I stared at him, silent. I hadn’t the faintest idea. I’ve thought about that conversation a lot in the months that have followed. Since then, my self-understanding has shifted. Though here at Duke or at home among friends, I prefer being called a black American, when abroad I realize that being “American” is a more significant part of my identity—perhaps even ahead of my race. In most global settings, that designation matters much more than the color of one’s skin, one’s ethnicity and, in many cases, even gender. ' To really engage yourself in any sort of community, you can work toward changing how you and others see the world, but you also must be willing to redefine how you see yourself. It seems that many of us who ship off to do civic engagement abroad, prepared to change the world for the better, have our understanding of a global community redefined. What can also change—even in an instant—is how you see yourself and what you understand to be your intrinsic identity. Sometimes, the most enriching experiences are found in the unexpected and the unsettling. This is a Duke education —one that can change a person forever. #•
