Tufts teams up with BC to offer new dual degree program BY
MICHAEL MARKS
Contributing Writer
Tufts’ Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and Boston College (BC) have teamed up to offer a new dual degree program through the Department of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning (UEP) and BC Law School, filling in gaps in the curriculum at both schools. The program, approved in June, will allow graduates to receive a Master of Arts in UEP from Tufts and a Juris Doctor degree from Boston College in four years instead of the five years it would normally take to obtain the degrees separately. “The fields of Law and Planning are inexorably linked,” Professor and Chair of the Department of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning Julian Agyeman said. “[Tufts] doesn’t have a law school, and BC doesn’t have a planning department, so the synergies were obvious.” Jon Witten, a UEP lecturer and an adjunct professor at BC Law School, approached faculty at both institutions about the possibility of creating a joint degree program after
the certification of UEP by the Planning Accreditation Board, according to BC Law School Professor Zygmunt Plater. Agyeman said the faculties of both schools unanimously approved the program. The program’s coordinators originally planned to start the program in the 2011-12 academic year. But two law students at BC, Lum Fobi and Julia Bramley, heard about the nascent program and requested to start taking classes for their UEP degree this year. After clearing some administrative hurdles, both students started taking Tufts UEP classes in September, they said. Although there are only two dual degree students this year, administrators expect the program to grow rapidly, according to Plater. “A number of kids who were applying to [UEP] were interested in the program,” Plater said. “Next year I think we will have a very interesting market response,” Plater said. For next year, students will apply to each school independently and undergo separate evaluation processes. Once in see DUAL DEGREE, page 2

Network safety lies largely in students’ hands, University Information Technology officials said.
Tufts network’s openness places onus of security on its users BY
PATRICK DONNELLY Contributing Writer
Tufts’ recent ranking as the most dangerous school in the country might have students clutching their handbags close to their bodies, but one hazard remains overlooked: Internet crime. October marks the seventh annual National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and Tufts’ network may be less secure than one would expect. The contemporary world has become increasingly reliant on technology to store large amounts of personal information and to keep that
information safe. But the process of securing data is a difficult task — especially at an institution like Tufts, whose network stores an immense amount of information and needs to make that data available to a large number of users. The broad range of digital resources to which Tufts offers its students and professors access is only made possible with very limited censorship and a relatively open network, according to Dawn Irish, the director of communication and organisee SECURITY, page 3

Administrators and safety officials are responding to two local on-campus incidents, at Regis and Boston Colleges.
Acts of violence on Boston-area campuses spotlight security BY JENNY

Daily Editorial Board
Campus safety has come under close scrutiny in the Greater Boston area with the occurrence of two separate cases of on-campus stabbings in September. From news website The Daily Beast’s “Most Dangerous Colleges 2010” ranking — in which Tufts and Harvard University took first and second place, respectively — to recent incidents at nearby Boston College (BC) and Regis College, college and university security measures are the center of attention amid heightened anxiety about campus safety. On Sept. 24 and Sept. 25, two unrelated stabbings occurred on the Regis and BC campuses in the early morning hours. In both cases, individuals unaffiliated with the universities were allegedly involved in the incidents.
Waltham resident Elhadji Malick Ndiaye in the early hours of Sept. 24 was fatally stabbed in an altercation at a dormitory parking lot near Regis. His attacker, identified as a Wheelock College student, has since been arrested and charged with murder. The next day, BC senior Jeremiah Hegarty was stabbed in the abdomen outside of his Brighton dormitory. Hegarty has since been released from the hospital. Police have issued a warrant for Hegarty’s assailant but have not made any arrests. In the incidents’ aftermath, officials at both Regis and BC are confronting a shaken sense of security among their respective student bodies while seeking to downplay outside media scrutiny. Last month marked the first time any kind of violent incident has occurred inside the gates of Regis’ suburban
Weston campus, according to Special Assistant to the President M.J. Doherty. Doherty stressed the isolated nature of the recent incident. “We are a peaceful community with a zero tolerance for violence,” Doherty told the Daily. The Regis campus’s main gate typically remains open to allow students to get on and off campus easily, according to Doherty. In the week after the stabbing, campus police guarded the main gate and checked identification of every person entering the campus. Doherty said the campus may decide to start locking its main gate after certain hours. “We’re reviewing our security policies, and if we need to make permanent changes, we will,” he said. BC similarly increased its security in the immediate aftermath of the stabbing, according see VIOLENCE, page 2
Cummings introduces new conservation medicine program BY
MARISSA GALLERANI Senior Staff Writer
A new master’s program in conservation medicine introduced by Tufts’ Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine is now accepting applications. Conservation medicine is an emerging interdisciplinary field that studies health issues related to the interaction between the environment, animals and humans. The Cummings master’s program, which lasts one year and does not include a thesis, will begin offering classes in Fall 2011. Applications for

the program are due on April 1 of next year. “The new emerging pandemic threats are largely coming from newfound and unusual associations between people and animals,” Gretchen Kaufman, director of Tufts’ Center for Conservation Medicine ( Tufts CCM) and an assistant professor at Cummings, said. “New diseases have emerged in humans that wouldn’t have otherwise, diseases like AIDS or ebola,” she said. Kaufman said the master’s program, based out of the Tufts
CCM, is the first of its kind in the country. “There are a few graduate programs in Europe, but none are as diverse as this one,” Kaufman said. The master’s program marks “the first time that a diverse group of people got together to talk about this interdisciplinary field and tried to define the term of conservation medicine,” Kaufman said. “The program is meant to add on to an individual person’s expertise, and we are training see CUMMINGS, page 2

to make them more competitive and suited for working in conservation medicine.” The interdisciplinary program incorporates faculty members from diverse backgrounds and schools. Cummings Research Assistant Professor Allen Rutberg said health decisions frequently require input from a variety of backgrounds. “This is not just a job for physicians, veterinarians or public health people,” Rutberg said. “Ecological issues require complex policy issues that
need policy and government mechanisms to cope with these complicated health issues.” “The problems in dealing with health have transcended any one discipline,” Rutberg said. Civil and Environmental Engineering Associate Professor and Action Chair Stephen Levine helped design a course for the program titled Engineering Solutions, which will combine elements of ecology and public health. Levine said communication across disciplines is often difficult, but he expects the program to ease the process. “People coming in with different

to Jack Dunn, BC’s director of news public affairs, who said that the campus was very safe. “BC heightened patrols of the lower campus in the wake of the incident on September 25,” Dunn told the Daily. “It will remain in effect for a limited time as warranted.” He added that the stabbing was the first violent incident on the BC campus in recent history and that the school administration views the stabbing as an anomaly. BC officials have no current plans to implement permanent security measures in response to the stabbing. James Alan Fox, the Lipman Family professor of criminology, law and public policy at Northeastern University, said that universities risk overreacting to violent incidents by implementing excessive security measures. Fox is the author of the book “Violence and Security on Campus: From Preschool Through College” (2010). “The rate of crime on a campus is a fraction of what it is in cities,” Fox told the Daily. “Students are much safer on campus than off, and in fact may be safer on campus than in their own hometowns. If you over-talk the point of security, you’ll raise fears, not lower them.” Fox emphasized that administrators should be careful not to unintentionally create an atmosphere of fear among the student body, even as they evaluate campus safety. “Public Safety should always examine and see if there are any vulnerabilities that could be fortified, but without alarming the student bodies or making it inconvenient for them,” Fox said. Dunn said that BC uses a cardswipe system for access to residence halls and maintains a monitoring staff presence, similar to safety prac-
tices at many other local universities, such as Northeastern. Fox said that although these tactics work, video surveillance may be the most effective campus security measure. “Card-swipe systems at dorms, though, are hardly perfect,” he said. “There are tag-alongs, and what student is going to ask another person to see identification to enter a building? It may require an actual human being or a camera.” Tufts University Police Department (TUPD) Capt. Mark Keith said Tufts is interested in possibly implementing more video surveillance across the campus in the coming years. “We have talked about it in the past,” he said. “We’ve had a company come in, do an assessment of how best to implement surveillance in multiyear phases.” Keith said that currently there are cameras in Cousens Gym, which have proven useful in investigating several instances of theft and attempted thefts. Additionally, he said that TUPD has not observed a problem with the card-swipe system for gaining entry into residence halls but echoed Fox in pointing out the role of students in ensuring the effectiveness of the system. “I think for our purposes, it’s been pretty effective,” Keith said. “But it is only as effective as how students use it.” Doherty believes that in order to limit future instances of campus violence, it is critical for colleges to cultivate alert and aware student bodies. “As Americans, we often think police presence and technology are solutions,” Doherty said. “But students have to take a thought about what’s best for us to be a community and what’s the kind of support we want to give each other.”
expertise speak different languages,” Levine said. “This program intended to bring people in different areas with different kinds of background and experience and essentially help them develop a common vocabulary.” The program is funded by grants from The Regina Bauer Frankenberg Foundation for Animal Welfare. Rutberg is excited to engage students in a new approach to health issues. “We’re very excited bringing all these different people to campus, how that will drive research [and] get people thinking on some new angles and approaches to these problems,” he said.
Dual degree allows students to combine studies DUAL DEGREE continued from page 1
the program, students study their first year exclusively at either UEP or BC Law School and then split their time between the two campuses in subsequent years, according BC Law School Professor Zygmunt Plater. The program is ideal for students who want to pursue careers in planning and land use in government or in the private sector. It focuses on both the policy and legal structures behind land use and planning, preparing students as optimal candidates for a growing number of potentially high-profile positions, according to Plater, who specializes in environmental and land use law. “It’s the instrumentalists in our dual degree graduates that I think will be significantly at an advantage over some schools where they produce people who will just know policy or who will just know existing structures and don’t have any sense of the dynamism of modern governance,” Plater said. “You put law together with planning, and you’ve got a really nice package.” Fobi, one of the program’s students, plans to use her degree in the private sector, acting as an advisor to corporations on land use issues. “I would be able to add a consulting aspect, in addition to my legal knowledge, so [corporations] could prepare better for environmental and social impact, instead of just reacting [to] them,” Fobi said. “The Tufts program offers a lot more hands-on experience working in the field with clients than you would get in a law school setting,” Bramley said. “In my urban planning and design class, we get to design actual plots of land in the city of Somerville that have a real impact on the community, which is not something you get in law school, where the focus is on theory rather than practice.”

zational effectiveness for University Information Technology (UIT ). Most universities use similar open networks, Irish said, but they do necessarily mean less security and privacy for users. An open network “does make us more vulnerable, but we need to remain open in order to get our work done,” she said. Much of the network’s security lies, quite literally, in student hands, Irish said. In order for students to protect their information, UIT officials stressed the importance of clicking responsibly, choosing strong passwords and using anti-virus software, especially when using social networking sites. “We forget how much people can find out about us,” Chuck Young, UIT’s director of information security, said. “Think before you post.” Passwords, more than anything else, grant direct access to the information they protect, which is why Tufts lays out stringent requirements for network passwords. “A strong password slows [hackers] down because it takes a very long time to guess a very complicated, long password,” Young said. Last October, an unusually strong hacking attack compromised over 100 computers on Tufts’ Medford/Somerville campus. Hackers cracked a number of passwords that allowed them onto the network, subsequently taking over storage space, Irish said at the time. She said then that no lasting damage occurred. Young recommended students use phrases instead of just simple words and that they incorporate characters like @ in place of “a” and /\/ in place of “n” in effort to complicate the password and lengthen the amount of time it would take for a hacker to break the password. He also advised against using common expressions or dictionary words, which are easy to guess, or using the same password for multiple sites. “I highly recommend that you don’t use Tufts passwords for outside sites like

Freshman Jeannette Lee works on her laptop in Hodgdon Hall. UIT officials said students must safeguard their accounts with strong passwords. Facebook or Twitter because they are probably bigger targets than we are,” Irish said. “If you use the same password, you are much more likely to have your password compromised.” In addition, Tufts requires network users to change their password regularly. “If it takes six months to figure out what your password is and you change it every three months, well, that’s the reasoning behind changing your password,” Young said. Chris Smith, a junior minoring in computer science, conducted an experiment last summer to test that theory. “After spending three days on Google, I found out enough information to hack into both my computer and my parents’ computer,” Smith said. “The second you understand the process behind it, the more you know how to protect yourself.” Controls like passwords are generally only the first line of defense. “Security controls are designed to slow people down,” Young said. “If somebody
wants to get into your computer, they’re probably going to be successful. There’s not much you can do.” For this reason, he stresses the utilization of data backups to store documents in case a computer part fails or is attacked and information is lost. Freshman Justin Kim is no stranger to this tactic. “I’ve had instances where I was working on a paper, and I had to start all over again because I didn’t have a backup, and the computer crashed on me,” Kim said. “It’s always good to make a backup of your data because you never know when your computer is going to crash.” Backup methods include online services such as Google Docs and Microsoft Online Storage, automatic service providers and equipment such as external hard drives, data disks and flash drives. In addition, Tufts provides one gigabyte of storage for every student on what is called the “personal drive,” or “p: drive,” Irish said.
“P: drives are backed up several times a day, so it’s a great place to store the things that you absolutely don’t want to lose,” Irish later said in an e-mail. In honor of National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Tufts UIT will hold a Technology Fair at the Mayer Campus Center on Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. “There will be a host of information there for students, ranging from the latest digital collaboration resources to where to go on campus for free computer repairs and maintenance, to how to keep your data safe,” Irish said. Smith and Kim both feel that the Tufts network is safe enough for their purposes. Kim said, though, that hearing about instances of cyber attacks in the past is unsettling. “I feel pretty safe as of now. I personally haven’t had any major problems, but I’ve heard stories about people I know who have had their e-banking accounts hacked,” he said. “That scares me a little bit.”

‘Five Down, One Across’ a crossword of emotions and secrets BY
REBECCA SANTIAGO
Daily Editorial Board
Imagine the horror a doting wife experiences when, while laundering her husband’s clothing, she discovers
Five Down, One Across Written by Michael Towers Directed by Sidney Friedman At the Boston Playwrights’ Theatre through October 24 Tickets $10 (Students) to $30 a foreign streak of pink lipstick on his dress-shirt collar. Now prolong that traumatic moment of disillusionment by two decades, amplify the exquisite shock tenfold and substitute run-of-themill adultery with lesbianism and a very messy mother-daughter relationship. The result is Michael Towers’s “Five Down, One Across,” presented by Boston Playwrights’ Theatre. This coming-out play on steroids forces audiences to closely examine their own interpersonal relationships and question whether it is possible to ever really know anyone. The offbeat heroine of “Five Down” is Betty (Chloe Leamon), a wiry, middleaged academic whose closet harbors more skeletons than Carrie Bradshaw’s spacious walk-in could ever accommodate. Until a spot opens up in a desirable nursing home, Betty is forced to shelter her 85-year-old mother, Madeleine (Alice Duffy), in her unvarnished house in Brookline, Mass. Though she looks grandmotherly, Madeleine is one tough cookie, made unpleasant by her recent development of Alzheimer’s disease. Prior to her mother’s arrival, Betty promises her girlfriend, Sharon (Stephanie Clayman), that she will finally come clean to her mother about her sexuality and her relationship with Sharon, along with a slew of remaining secrets. For weeks, Betty procrastinates carrying out the unsavory task.
But no more: It’s “Taco Night,” a regularly held ladies’ gathering at Betty’s — that in no way involves Mexican cuisine — and her friends are ready to do whatever it takes to get Betty to admit her secrets to her mother. And there’s a twist. Or two. While the plot is a veritable humdinger, the set is a bleak snooze. Though Betty purportedly leads an interesting life, her surroundings in no way reflect that — her living room might as well have been decorated by the bland hack responsible for the Hilton Homewood Suites. This unimpressive backdrop places an immediate burden on the actors to liven up the stage and bring color to the performance. They bring color, all right — in Kitten’s (Ellen Peterson) case, every color of the rainbow, as proudly evidenced by her “I’m not a lesbian, but my girlfriend is” T-shirt. Peterson seems to thoroughly enjoy portraying this loudmouthed ragamuffin; she is all at once filled with bravado, appallingly crass and childishly sulky. Though Kitten’s provocative personality would rankle in the real world, Peterson knows exactly how to play this braless rascal. She sends theatergoers into paroxysms of laughter as she cavorts wildly across the stage. With rare exception, the rest of the cast performs with adeptness on par with Peterson’s. In fact, the success of “Five Down” owes much credit to the actors, who are given the tricky task of compensating for an inconsistent script. “Five Down” is Towers’s first fulllength play to be produced, and his greenness leaks through at points in this mostly smart script. Betty’s character receives a few too many monologues; try though Leamon might, she cannot quite evoke organic grace from these chunky soliloquies. Towers selects repetition as the main vehicle for conveying Madeleine’s questionable dementia. Though this tactic is effective, it is not particularly sophisticated, and Madeleine’s oneliners end up losing their comedic

Fortunately, Towers has a real talent for scripting conversation, and the sincere, emotive and comedic exchanges between characters easily compensate for the script’s mild shortcomings. The lovers’ spats between spirited Kitten and her more demure girlfriend, Ramona ( Jessica Webb), are saucy and dazzling. The play does not want for wit or insight, either. In one of its funniest lines, Betty rationalizes her clandestine relationship with her mother by equating lesbianism to attention deficit disorder and asthma, phenomena that simply didn’t exist in her mother’s day.

‘Smallville’ takes flight — almost BY
ELIZABETH MCKAY Contributing Writer
“No flights, no tights.” This edict, set forth by “Smallville” creators Alfred
Smallville Starring Tom Welling, Erica Durance, and Allison Mack Airs Fridays at 8 p.m. on the CW Gough and Miles Millar when the show kicked off in 2001, assured viewers that Tom Welling’s Clark Kent would remain earthbound and sensibly clothed. At the time, that decree was a shield against the inherent cheesiness of the superhero franchise. But the show, like Clark, has grown up, leading fans to wonder why Clark’s feet are still on the ground. The veteran show picks up its tenth and final season with Clark narrowly escaping death by the hand of Kandorian General Zod. He is miraculously saved, only to discover that Oliver (aka the Green Arrow, played by Justin Hartley) has been kidnapped. Tess (Cassidy Freeman), meanwhile, wakes
up with her burns miraculously healed in one of Lex Luthor’s laboratories. There she finds Lex’s clones, intended to be used to heal their (probably not) dead creator. When one of them breaks loose, he forces Clark to choose between saving Lois (Erica Durance) or a street of civilians. Clark — in classic Clark fashion — saves both. Lois, now privy to Clark’s secret, leaves for Egypt. And Clark flies … almost. As a well-deserved nod to the show’s loyal decade-old following, the premiere includes ample allusions to the show’s first season: Lois tied up like a scarecrow, a cameo by John Schneider’s Jonathan Kent and the almost-reunion of Lex and Clark. And in classic “Smallville” style, the dialogue is rife with intimations of Superman’s final destiny (cue the dramatic music). Yet the season premiere felt undoubtedly stale, falling victim to the same vice that has plagued the last few seasons of the faster-than-a-speeding-bullet protagonist’s story: painful slowness. Clark’s journey to the famous red-and-blue suit feels never-ending. He has already saved Earth from several apocalypses, formed the Justice
League, and won the heart of his destined love Lois Lane. He still seems to think that he is not ready to accept his “destiny,” despite the fact that viewers feel so ready for him to take off that watching him mope around Earth is becoming excruciating. All that he has left to do is get a pair of glasses and put on the suit. But he just won’t do it. The blessing and curse of see SMALLVILLE, page 6

turns poignant as she muses, “There was no name for [lesbians] back then. How real can you be without a name?” Despite minor stumbles, there is a pinch of magic in “Five Down” that keeps it from ever going stale. The bizarre characters and their convincing portrait of emotion ensure that the final scenes of the performance sparkle as freshly as the first. Though small imperfections create something of an uphill trek for the actors, they handle the challenge like seasoned mountain climbers. As they take their final bows, they beam at the audience, emanating all the accomplishment of hikers at the summit of Mount Everest.
Comedy troupe The Institute offers big laughs tonight in Sophia Gordon After a harrowing week of torrential rain and midterm exams, a good laugh is exactly what the doctor ordered for gloomy Tufts students. The Institute, Tufts’ live and filmed sketch comedy group, is ready with that antidote. Tonight marks the premiere of The Institute’s fourth season, entitled “Taking Risibility to New Heights.” The performance will consist of three live sketches, three filmed sketches and a “Tufts Today” news segment. Executive producer Brian Agler, a senior, asserts that the show will be a “veritable hootenanny.” What more could a weary student wish for? The Institute has undergone some big changes since its last gut-busting performance. This is the group’s first year without its founder, and the troupe boasts no fewer than six new members — two writers and four cast members. “Our cast and writing staff last year was very seniorheavy,” Agler said, “so this is kind of a rebirth.” Despite this extreme cast makeover, Agler promises that tonight’s show will not stray too far from the beat-
en path The Institute has so successfully traversed in the past. Agler concedes that they will be relying on PowerPoint more than they used to, as well as presenting a lengthy and atypically formatted video sketch, which he describes as an “experiment.” Yet Agler vows to the group’s loyal fan base that “it’s just going to be the same old Institute.” Though this may be the “same old” Institute, the performance promises to be anything but ho-hum. One of tonight’s sketches is “Zombie Congress,” a cheesy sitcom about what happens to Congress after a zombie apocalypse. Other sketch titles include “Sasquatch Roommate” and “The Man Who Can’t Relax.” Fresh material and fresh faces considered, it’s looking like a hilarious night in the Sophia Gordon Multipurpose Room. The show starts at 11:15 p.m. Admission is free, but The Institute assumes no legal responsibility for audience members who leave in stitches from side-splitting laughter.

Fans wait to see if Clark Kent will finally take to the skies in final season SMALLVILLE continued from page 5
“Smallville” has always been that its ending is set in stone. As the show comes to a conclusion, its greatest challenge will be to capitalize on the anticipation of reaching a known conclusion. Unfortunately, as the season premiere demonstrates, the writers have yet to shake off the weight of dramatic irony. How can we find interest in the obstacles blocking Clark’s success when we already know that he will fly over them? The only thing stopping Clark (and “Smallville”) from taking flight is Clark himself. His inertia will be this season’s greatest enemy. Allusions to the “greatest evil” Clark will soon be facing — producers confirmed that villain Darkseid will fill that role — fall flat. The past two seasons have proven that the only villain interesting enough to keep our attention is the one villain we can’t have: Lex Luthor. Luckily, though Michael Rosenbaum has been painfully absent from the show since his (probably fake) death at the end of season seven, producer/star Welling has stated that he hopes to recruit the show’s favorite baldie for the final season. Our fingers are crossed. The second episode provides easily the most promising addition to the final season in the form of Cat Grant, played by Keri Lynn Pratt. The perky, hero-hating reporter — she is the Daily Planet’s gossip columnist in the comics — adds a much-needed dose of comic relief against Clark’s constant moodiness. And her anti-hero rhetoric (saying it is

Two new villains also come on the scene in the form of another anti-hero group and the Suicide Squad, a group of supernaturally gifted anti-heroes. Still, all we really want is Lex.
The episode ends with Chloe’s apparent disappearance. Allison Mack has made it clear that she will be leaving the show early in this season, but even so, her departure seemed ridiculously anti-climactic, considering she is the only remaining original cast member besides Welling.
Judging by the first two episodes, “Smallville” fans can still look forward to plenty of convoluted mystery, dramatic music and use of the word “destiny.” It unfortunately has not satisfied its torture fetish, but at least it can officially move past the girlfriend-doesn’t-know-aboutmy-powers plotline. And Lex

may finally stop by. The outlook is cautiously optimistic. The final scene of the second episode finds Clark atop the Daily Planet in a red leather jacket. While it’s still a long way from the famous suit, it’s a start. Let’s hope for the speedy repeal of “no flights, no tights.” It’s time for Clark to take off.

effort, said. “We’ll need that as we continue against great defensive teams this season.” Updike played a critical role in breaking down the Blue defense, adding to her already impressive 3.86 kills per set season average. The box score also exhibits the continued dominating play of sophomore setter Kendall Lord, who finished with a game-high 20 assists, adding to her outstanding 9.14 assists per set. Overall, she has contributed more than 88 percent of the team’s assists and has been an able replacement for former All-American setter Dena Feiger (LA ’10). Tufts cannot rest on its laurels, though, as their packed schedule continues this weekend with a trip to Middlebury, Vt., to face NESCAC foes Amherst and Middlebury. Tufts currently sits tied with Bowdoin atop the conference with a 5-0 record, and with Middlebury close behind at 3-0, these weekend matches will be critical in deciding the NESCAC regular season title and the right to host the championship tournament in the first weekend of November. “We’re all really excited for this weekend,” Spieler said. “Amherst is traditionally one of our biggest rivals and we want to go out and take both matches this weekend in straight sets.”

Bates loss a wake-up call but not a downer for Tufts football team FOOTBALL continued from page 8
game, buoyed by two touchdown passes from Fucillo and a pair of field goals by junior kicker Adam Auerbach. Fucillo finished with 341 passing yards, 13 short of the Tufts single-game mark, and senior wide receiver Greg Stewart had a careerhigh 13 catches and 126 yards. Junior linebacker Ferras Albitar tallied 17 tackles, and now has a NESCACbest 26. Senior Brian Danshaw also forced a fumble and leads the conference with two on the year. “Why should anything change; we lost one game by a point,” coach Bill Samko said. “There were a lot of good things from that game, some
positive things and certainly things that we have to improve on, but Bates made some plays. You just tip your hat to the other guy and recognize that they actually made a few more plays than we did.” The Polar Bears, meanwhile, are off to a winless start, thanks to back-to-back losses against Williams and Amherst, two of the top three NESCAC teams in 2009. Led by preseason All-American wide receiver Pat Noone, the Polar Bears will look to get back on track at home against the Jumbos, who the Polar Bears last beat in 2008. In that game, a 28-26 Bowdoin win, Fucillo completed 64 percent of his passes for a 240-yard, two-
touchdown outing that came within a two-point conversion of sending the game into overtime. He didn’t face the Polar Bears in the 2009 regular season after suffering an ankle injury in a preseason scrimmage against them just weeks before. The past two decisions between the two teams, which include Tufts’ 25-22 overtime Homecoming win in 2009, have been decided by a total of five points. Noone, a junior, became the program’s all-time receptions leader in the Polar Bears’ 38-7 loss against Amherst on Saturday and led the NESCAC in 2009 with 76 receptions, 997 yards and seven touchdowns. Bowdoin, through two games, has
attempted 90 passes, third-most in the conference. The Jumbos thus far are second in the NESCAC in pass defense, having allowed an average of 184.5 yards per game through the air. Setting the tone with a furious pass rush will be key, according to Simmons. “Our communication has been up this week, so hopefully we can get after the quarterback and make some plays, get some turnovers and get the ball back in our offense’s hands,” he said. “It’s so crucial because that’s going to help not only the linebackers, but the defensive backs in their coverage. If you can get some pressure on the quarterback, make him move his feet and
move him around the pocket, then that’ll get him off his reads.” For a team whose mantra is “win the day,” the Jumbos certainly seem focused on putting the loss behind them and getting back on the field. That time will come on Saturday in the all-whites. “During the week, it’s a little kick in the butt to get guys going,” Fucillo said. “Hey, you lose one, but the sun came up on Sunday and we’re playing again. It’s one loss. In this league, the competition is very even. I don’t think anyone’s really that great and anyone can beat anyone on any given Saturday. We want to respect Bowdoin like we would any other game.”
Editors' Challenge | Week 5 Hop on Platform 9 ¾ and step aboard the Editors’ Challenge Express for another week of magical picking. Week 4 was perhaps the most wizardly week that the sports gurus have yet experienced, as no editor had a sub-.500 week and only one finished at exactly .500. The other editors might have to perform an Expelliarmus charm on Jeremy “He Who Must Not Be Named” Greenhouse, whose devilish ways have left him as the most powerful picker of them all. His 9-5 Week 4 gives him a two-game lead in first place and makes him the first editor to reach the 40-win plateau. Ringing in alone in second place at 38-24 is Alex “Cho Chang” Prewitt, fresh off a Week 4-best 10-4 mark, having nailed the Cleveland-Cincinnati game as well as the Baltimore-overPittsburgh contest. Nipping at his heels, though, is Ethan “Neville Longbottom” Sturm, whose shy ways have given way to some serious picking skills. He fell out of second with a 7-7 week but is only three games behind Greenhouse. Additionally, he looks EXACTLY like the actor who plays Neville Longbottom. No, seriously. Check it out. We’ll wait. Crazy, right? We know. Anyway, a two-way tie for fourth place between Alex “Viktor Krum” Lach and Steve “Professor Minerva McGonagall” Smith has the middle of the rankings all OVERALL RECORD LAST WEEK

muddled. “Viktor” is derived from the Latin “victor,” meaning “conqueror,” and that’s exactly what Lach will have to do to overcome his four-game deficit. Maybe Smith can turn into a cat or something. That’d be sweet. Housemates Noah “Albus Dumbledore” Schumer and Phil “Hermione Granger” Dear are together, once again, at 35-27, but it would be a little weird if their film/novel counterparts were a couple or even lived together. Talk about a gold-digging witch. Ringing in at a tie for eighth place is Claire “Mrs. Weasley” Kemp, who has promised to make sweaters for all of the editors if they allow her to win, and Daniel “Hagrid” Rathman. Both sit at 34-28, six games behind Greenhouse but just a game back of moving into sixth. Once again, all alone in 10th, albeit still clinging to her next-to-last position, is Lauren “Ginny Weasley” Flament, whose 8-6 week kept her just ahead of Ben “Harry Potter” Kochman. Kochman may have a football-shaped scar on his head, but it certainly hasn’t helped him when it comes to picking NFL games. He still hasn’t gotten out of the cellar ... or the closet under the stairs.

After historic loss, Jumbos look for redemption Tufts heads to Bowdoin for chance to match last season’s win total in third game BY
ALEX PREWITT
ANDREW MORGENTHALER/TUFTS DAILY
Things didn’t go quite as planned against Bates last Saturday. The one-point loss snapped a 24-year win streak against the Bobcats and placed the Jumbos in the middle of a muddy NESCAC. In Tufts’ new spread offense, Fucillo shattered school records for single-game completions and attempts but also threw four interceptions. In the practices leading up to the game against Bowdoin, the focus was not on remedying any issues with the system or the Jumbos’ intensity, but rather on improving the mental game. Against Bates, Tufts committed 11 penalties, the most since a 12-penalty effort against Bowdoin on Oct. 7, 1995, though the Jumbos reached the 11-penalty plateau on three other occasions in that 15-year span. “Honestly, I feel like we’re kind of caught off-guard a bit,” Simmons said. “It didn’t go as planned against Bates, so I think we’re all in a more removed state and more in the trenches. Hopefully we can play with the mentality of a sleeping giant. People have been sleeping on us, seeing we lost, so hopefully we can come in and knock some heads off.” The mistakes, however, fail to tell the whole story. The Jumbos led for the majority of the

Playing at home has its advantages, but junior defensive lineman Donnie Simmons simply can’t deny his affection for the beauty of the Jumbos’ road uniforms. Thanks to a pair of games at Zimman Field to open the 2010 season, the football team’s brand-new, all-white jerseys have remained relatively unused and haven’t yet seen the gridiron. It’s about time for that to change. The Jumbos (1-1) will head to New Brunswick, Maine, tomorrow for an afternoon NESCAC matchup with Bowdoin (0-2) in Tufts’ first road contest of the year. After last weekend’s 21-20 Homecoming loss to Bates, Saturday’s contest with the Polar Bears will serve not only as a chance to break out the new uniforms, but to forget about the loss to the Bobcats and move on with the stillpromising season. “I think after the game everyone was a little disappointed, but we’re moving on,” senior quarterback Anthony Fucillo said. “I think guys will have that taste in their mouths, but we’re going into Bowdoin like it’s any other game. Whether we won or lost last week, guys are just really getting into focus.”

Tufts strikes Wellesley down, continues winning ways BY

Coming off weekend victories over Wesleyan, Conn. College and Amherst, the volleyball team sat VOLLEYBALL (6-0 NESCAC, 14-3 Overall) at Wellesley, Wednesday Tufts Wellesley
25 25 25 — 3 22 20 19 — 0
atop the NESCAC with an overall record of 13-3. The Jumbos took on the Blue on Wednesday night knowing that they had just defeated them in straight sets on Sept. 25 in the final of the MIT Invitational. History repeated itself on Wellesley territory, with the Jumbos downing the Blue in straight sets in a match that featured several long rallies, but eventually resulted in a
convincing victory for the Jumbos. The Blue did not make it easy, though, and came out fighting. In the first set, Wellesley rallied from an early 10-8 deficit to tie the score at 13-13, thanks in large part to the play of sophomore hitter Elizabeth Campbell, who finished the match with 12 kills. However, as they have done so many times this year, the Jumbos brushed off their opponent’s push, reeling off three quick points at the end of the match to close out the Blue, 25-22. The Blue continued their grinding play in the second frame, pushing the score to 16-16 in a see-saw battle. A four-point run on the serve of senior quad-captain Nancy Shrodes, however, put the Jumbos on top, and they closed out the set 25-20. The final set was almost a mirror image of the second, with the Jumbos using several service runs from Shrodes to break open the frame and seal the match with a
count of 25-19, improving their season record to 14-3 and prolonging their winning streak, which now stands at four. “It was a really good, fun game for us,” junior Cara Spieler, who finished the match with five kills and eight digs, said. “We were able to make some adjustments from the last time we played, keep it away from their libero and exploit their tendencies.” The match was marked by Wellesley’s strategy of passing the ball around extensively, hoping to find an opening in the Tufts defense. However, the Jumbos were not swayed by the tactic, and senior quad-captain Caitlin Updike was one of five Jumbos with at least seven digs in the match. “We did a great job of staying in our system and not getting frustrated by the long rallies,” Updike, who also added 11 kills to the winning
