Duke vs. the crawlies: A battle in Epworth Researchers’ app helps determine risk for autism Sam Turken The Chronicle

Sujal Manohar and Adam Beyer | The Chronicle Epworth residence hall will be closed during Fall Break for insect extermination, which first-years living there said is much needed.

Tyler Lian The Chronicle First-year Jasmine Alexander-Greene woke with a start one morning when she felt a large cockroach crawling across her face, causing her to fall out of bed. In Epworth, cockroaches are the roommates that no one wanted—and now Duke is fighting back. During Fall Break, the dorm—which is the smallest residence hall on East Campus and houses approximately 50 first-years—will undergo extermination and “extensive preventative treatment,” said Rick Johnson, associate vice president of student affairs for Housing, Dining and Residence Life. Residents staying on campus will spend Sunday night in the Marriott Residence Inn Durham and will be able to return to their rooms as soon as noon the next day.

“I don’t think I’ve gone a day without seeing at least one roach in the building somewhere,” said Alexander-Greene, who is affectionately known as the dorm’s “roach sniper.” The students are looking forward to no longer encountering the cockroaches—which first-year Arin Chapman described as fat and the “length of a pinky finger”—though many have said the pests are so prevalent that they have gotten used to them. Since the start of school, some students have taken matters into their own hands. Several residents purchased chemical sprays to kill the cockroaches that crawl all over the the kitchen, common rooms, bathrooms and dorm rooms as well as the porch and balcony outside. “We’re pretty sure they live in the walls,” Chapman said. “We’re all afraid to hit the walls because we’re going to piss them off, and they’re just going to come up and swarm us.”

Opened in 1894, Epworth is the oldest residence hall on East Campus. Age, however, is not the only factor that makes the dorm so vulnerable to insects. “Epworth is in a fairly secluded, wooded area and is easier [for cockroaches] to get into than the buildings on the main quad which are solid brick,” wrote LB Bergene, associate dean for East Campus, in an email. Pest control technicians will be using a gel-based chemical made by DuPont, rather than gaseous fumigation, to treat indoor areas where bugs can infiltrate, such as the seam where the floor meets the wall or window and door cases. Two other insecticides—one spray and one powder-based—will be used for the exterior and basement. HDRL previously attempted to capture cockroaches in the dorm with limited See CRAWLIES on Page 5

Dr. Richard Bloomfield knows the experience all too well. Aside from being an assistant professor of internal medicine and pediatrics at Duke, Bloomfield has a daughter with autism. And, like many other parents, Bloomfield initially struggled to make sense of his daughter’s behavior. Although she began to have challenges understanding social cues and interpreting others’ emotions at age four, she did not receive a diagnosis until she was six years old. “As a first parent—we had twin daughters—your initial gut reaction is to assume that you’re doing something wrong or there’s something that you just don’t yet understand about your child,” said See AUTISM on Page 5

CAPS continues efforts to increase diversity, outreach

Annie Yang and Mahima Varma | The Chronicle

Claire Xiao The Chronicle Improving staff diversity at Counseling and Psychological Services is still a work in progress. During a community forum in November 2015, students noted that access to services in CAPS was limited and that there was a lack of diversity in the department. Director Danielle Oakley said CAPS is working on meeting the needs of underserved and underrepresented populations by being engaged on campus and offering clinical programs.

“[Access] is a common problem in counseling centers across the country,” Oakley said. “Our goal is to try to get students in within five days of them calling for an appointment, and that is a priority for us.” Among the challenges CAPS is trying to tackle, Oakley said, is diversity. She said CAPS will make it a goal to find qualified staff to represent marginalized communities and students of color. “Really digging into the psychological and social impact of racism and other discrimination is going to be important for us because that actually negatively impacts mental health,” Oakley said. “So we want

to make sure that we take a stand on the campus and say that everyone on campus needs to take a look at their thoughts and their actions.” Two new permanent psychologists have been added this Fall—Marvice Marcus and Greg Welikson, who were both interns last year. Marcus has experience working with black students and on social justice issues, and Welikson integrates multicultural perspectives into his counseling. Making Marcus and Welikson permanent staffers came as some former employees left. Among them were Gary Glass, associate director of outreach and developmental programming, and Interim Director Libby Webbs. Associate Director Joseph Talley noted that CAPS is currently in the midst of multiple searches for new staff members, which have been in progress since last year. These searches take about a year due to the difficulties of conducting a thorough, national search, Talley said, noting that CAPS does aim to add new staff next year. CAPS is taking other actions as well to address diversity, including releasing diversity brochures and adding pictures of all staff members to the website. “I think our diversity is more evident with the pictures,” Talley said. CAPS is also providing skill-based workshops for staff psychologists, such as Dismantling Racism Works, which examines racism in the United States and the history of oppression. The workshop will likely last a couple of years, Talley said. “We are making a major investment of time, and of course dollars, for everybody on this staff to examine our unknown, unconscious racist thoughts,” he said. Talley said that CAPS has improved

regarding its ease of access, noting an increase in the number of students they have seen this year. “[Waiting time] continues to get reduced, and it gets reduced by how we change our total system,” he said. “We’ve ramped up the number and percentage of students we see. We have busted 14 percent [of the student body].” To combat problems with access, CAPS has been focusing on group therapy sessions to improve interpersonal relationships and help students find connections with their peers. CAPS is also looking to partner with student groups on campus conducting mental health campaigns, Oakley said. “We’re also looking at how to help students have better access to clinical services and enhancing our focus on group therapy services to help students be in groups so they don’t feel like they’re so alone on campus,” Oakley said. CAPS will be moving from its location in the Flowers Building to the Student Health and Wellness Center, which is currently undergoing construction but is expected to be completed by January 2017. The new center will also house DukeReach, which helps direct students to University resources. “I liked that there was a colocation of the Student Health service and Wellness and DukeReach with CAPS,” Oakley said. “I think that all of [our] work is strengthened when we can all work together collaboratively.” Other steps to promoting student engagement include a greater social media initiative on platforms such as Facebook. “The things students bring to us as their concerns become our concerns,” Talley said. “We hear it when a student is out there. We are student-funded. We answer to you basically.”

Students score top prizes in health innovation competition Nidhila Masha The Chronicle Several Duke students participated in teams that placed first and second at the Triangle Health Innovation Challenge this year. In the Triangle Health Innovation Challenge—now in its second year— students and professionals from the surrounding area compete in teams to design and pitch solutions addressing major challenges in healthcare. Teams participating in THInC are given no more than 48 hours to formulate a technological solution to a relevant issue. Junior Harry Ahn was a member of the winning team, along with two other undergraduates and several graduate students, cardiothoracic residents and cardiologists from Duke. The healthcare problem that Ahn’s team focused on involved heart failure patients and high readmission rates. Patients being readmitted to hospitals is a major factor in high healthcare costs, Ahn explained. “Our solution was building a tool that will provide patients with continuous education and also serve as a tool that will allow them to monitor weight or their medication,” Ahn said. The eclectic team of clinical professionals, graduate students and undergraduates from different departments formed a team in the competition due to their “mutual interest” in the problem, Ahn noted. “It was a really great experience. Compared to other hackathons, [THInC] is not really computer science-heavy,” Ahn said. “Even if you don’t know how to do professional coding, you should try it out, especially if you’re interested in healthcare.”

Other Duke students, together with students from UNC, comprised a team that won second place in the competition for their proposal to use virtual reality to treat post traumatic stress disorder. The second place team, made up of six Duke undergraduates and one undergraduate from UNC, also received the Janssen Mental Health Prize for their prototype of a portable virtual reality device that uses exposure therapy to treat PTSD in veterans. “People are already using virtual reality to treat PTSD patients, and that has been pretty effective in the cases it had been used,” said sophomore Robyn Guo, a member of the second-place team. “We wanted to help make that more accessible.” Guo explained that solutions are judged based on how practical they are and by the viability of the team’s business plan. Teams participating in THInC, she added, are thus required to demonstrate excellence in three areas—knowledge of health care, technological skill and the ability to organize a persuasive business pitch. During the competition, the team developed a smartphone application that could connect to a portable virtual reality headset and thus allow PTSD patients to recreate the experience of encountering a potential trigger. By repeatedly exposing themselves to such triggers, Guo said, patients might theoretically be able to reduce their anxiety. Guo noted that their app seeks to provide access to different categories of triggers, so psychiatrists can better tailor their therapy to the needs of individual patients. Some examples of such triggers, she added, included fireworks, lightning and thunder. Although Guo noted that the patient’s

psychiatrist would likely need to be present to monitor the first session, future sessions would ideally be self-administered or with the help of a family member, eliminating the need to travel to a distant clinic and associated logistical problems such as parking fees. Sophomore Gary Wang, another member of the team, added that many veterans live in rural areas and do not have easy access to health care facilities capable of providing this form of therapy. He said that the application designed by his team could help make treatment more convenient by using the virtual reality headsets, which would be less expensive and more portable than most other options. Though the team did formulate a crude prototype during the course of their project,

Guo and Wang said that they do not currently plan to convert their idea into a commercial product, as they lack both the necessary funding and resources. “As students it’s really difficult to be able to create a full prototype,” Wang said. “Something like this requires millions of dollars of funding to be able to create pilot programs, to create necessary technology and to really get through the whole process.” Both Guo and Wang noted that they would be open to having an external organization with more resources take their idea and turn it into a marketable product. “It would be nice to get credit for our idea, but if others could actually make it a reality and help a lot of people, I’m definitely for it,” Guo said.

AUTISM from page 1 Bloomfield, who is also the mobile technology strategy director for Duke Medicine. “It can be hard to look at your child objectively.” Autism is a neurodevelopment disorder that affects approximately 1 in 68 children, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Although the disorder can be diagnosed as early as 18 months old, parents often do not identify less noticeable symptoms and receive a diagnosis for their child until he or she is older than four. Even experts can sometimes have difficulty recognizing that a child has autism. But the University’s Autism and Beyond mobile application is on the path to change that. Launched in October 2015, the research app has helped thousands of people determine whether their children might be at risk for autism. Although Autism and Beyond is a study that does not directly screen for autism, researchers hope it will lead to the development of more mobile programs that can accurately diagnose and treat mental health disorders at earlier ages. “Ultimately, we don’t want to just screen. We want to then be able to provide guided advice back about what to do, how to get help,” said Dr. Helen Egger, chief of Duke’s division of child and family mental health and neurology and a co-leader of the app’s development team. “We’re trying to really develop tools that take advantage of the computer in your pocket.” Autism and Beyond is one of seven medical apps that are available to the public as part of Apple’s new ResearchKit. It is part of a growing trend that has seen the release of a variety of mobile healthcare applications. For example, EpiWatch is an app that helps people with epilepsy track seizures. Duke’s autism app relies on questionnaires and video analysis of emotions. When parents first open the app, they come across a series of eligibility questions and other facts about the study. Once the test begins, children watch three videos that are based on the same exercises that psychologists use to diagnose autism. The clips show toys that involve moving balls or women singing “Itsy Bitsy Spider” or “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.” As the child stares into the iPhone screen, the app uses the phone’s front camera to record and examine facial expressions. Parents can then send the video and analysis to researchers, who use a computer algorithm to quantify the emotion detected in the child’s facial responses. The app also provides parents with feedback about the child’s risk of having autism and suggestions for dealing with different behaviors that might be an issue. Autism and Beyond originated from the PRIDE Study, which Egger and Duke autism researchers launched in 2014. In that study, Egger said her team tested whether pediatricians could use an iPad camera and video stimuli to more efficiently determine whether a child could have autism. Although it worked well, the PRIDE Study examined just 100 kids from Duke’s pediatrics department and was not readily accessible. Egger needed more evidence that the video analysis tool could be reliable. Autism and Beyond so far has met those criteria. The app is scalable and user-friendly,

www.dukechronicle.com

and since its launch a year ago, more than 2,300 people have participated in the study. “The difference between doing something when people come into a clinic setting versus providing an opportunity for parents to participate in research in the comfort of their own home is a big difference,” Egger said. Guillermo Sapiro, professor of electrical and computer engineering who helped develop Autism and Beyond, said the device that records and analyzes the facial expressions has been successful. He added that his team is preparing a paper that discusses the proof that actions recorded at home can be used for screening. “We have demonstrated that the tool is as accurate as experts,” Sapiro wrote in an email. Although it remains just a test, Bloomfield said Autism and Beyond is allowing parents to detect and treat autism sooner. In addition to the difficulty of recognizing autistic behavior, people often lack the resources to have their children examined for autism. In fact, many remote areas do not even offer access to mental health professionals who can diagnose autism, Bloomfield said. And delays in autism diagnoses can be costly. Early intervention and treatment can minimize some of the side effects of the disorder and also put parents more at ease, according to the​ Autism Speaks organization. “Having a diagnosis much sooner will help parents take better care of their children and be more patient with them and help them be as successful as they can be,” Bloomfield said. “Being apart of this will help other parents to avoid that anxiety.” That is why the creators are also trying to introduce the app overseas. The research team has focused on building partnerships with other medical centers around the world to increase access to the application. Egger said the University of Cape Town in South Africa has relied on Autism and Beyond to expand its autism research, and in Argentina, Duke’s researchers are working to create a Spanish version of the app. “Healthcare is only going to improve as we learn better ways and more efficient and effective ways to take care of our patients,” Bloomfield said. “Tools like this are going to help get us there. We clearly need to expand.”

MASSAGE from page 3 extensive renovations to the dorm this past summer. Wannamaker is also home to The Well, an upperclassmen residential learning community focused on supporting student wellness. Last year, amidst an effort to utilize excess surplus funds, Duke Student Government considered the purchase of massage chairs for student use. “The DSG Senate allocated $10,000 plus tax for massage chairs, but the purchase was not completed,” wrote DSG Executive Vice President Ilana Weisman, a senior, in an email. Those funds have not been allocated otherwise while DSG internally deliberates whether or not to complete the purchase, Weisman noted.

Blue Devils host Army looking to limit self-inflicted wounds and get back to .500 Brian Pollack The Chronicle For many young quarterbacks, there comes a turning point in their careers when they must pick themselves up and begin making the adjustments necessary to become a successful signal-caller. For Duke quarterback Daniel Jones, that time may have arrived. Following a woeful, five-interception performance at home against Virginia last week, Jones leads the Blue Devils back into action Saturday against Army at 3:30 p.m. at Wallace Army Wade Stadium. Jones vs. was coming off a Duke masterful 290-yard, three-touchdown SATURDAY, 3:30 p.m. performance in Wallace Wade Stadium Duke’s upset of Notre Dame, but a series of poor decisions against the Cavaliers quickly turned the homecoming contest into a rude awakening. “You certainly want to move forward and keep improving, but there’s so many learning opportunities in that game that you can’t just forget it,” Jones said. “We’ve analyzed the tape and I specifically have a lot to learn from it…. At the end of the day, that’s an execution thing in our passing game and timing and stuff like that. As a quarterback, that falls a lot on me.” Jones will need to be particularly careful against a stingy Black Knight defense that has allowed just 16.0 points per game and has already picked off opposing quarterbacks six times through four contests.

Juan Bermudez and Jack White | The Chronicle Linebackers Joe Giles-Harris and Ben Humphreys will look to shut down Army’s triple-option attack.

Three of those six picks have come from the linebacker position, meaning Jones will need to exercise caution even on short routes and check-downs. Army (3-1) was idle last week after suffering its first loss of the season, so its defense will be well-rested and have had plenty of time to analyze the tape of the Blue Devils’ latest defeat. Duke head coach David Cutcliffe said he saw his young quarterback trying to do too much at several different junctures against the Cavaliers. With passing conditions likely to be inhibited Saturday due to the effects of

Hurricane Matthew, it becomes even more important for Jones to take care of the ball and not try to force the issue. “I told him during the game, ‘Quit trying to make plays and just execute the play.’ There’s a big difference between the two,” Cutcliffe said. “He’s holding the ball a little bit longer. It means he’s looking at this throw that’s intermediate rather than laying it off [to a checkdown]. It means scramble instead of throwing it away or running for four yards, or, ‘I’m going to make a play downfield for 25 yards.’ We don’t need that.” On the other side of the ball, the Blue

Devils (2-3) have quite a task in preparing for the Black Knights’ triple-option offense, which has amassed 374.8 yards per game on the ground—a figure that leads the country by a significant margin. Army has not been held to fewer than 325 rushing yards in any game this season, prompting Cutcliffe to praise the squad as “a team that’s running it up and down the field on everyone.” Sophomore running back Andy Davidson leads the way for the Black Knights with six scores on the ground, but they are remarkably See FOOTBALL on Page 9

Chris Teufel | The Chronicle Goalkeeper E.J. Proctor has recorded four straight shutouts and now has 17 for her career—the fourth-most in program history.

In the span of two minutes in the first half, Duke and Wake Forest both found open looks in front of the goal with no defenders left to beat. But the Demon Deacons’ shot rattled off the crossbar, and the Blue Devils’ found the back of the net, keeping Duke unbeaten in ACC play. DUKE 1 The No. 9 Blue WAKE 0 Devils held on for a 1-0 victory Thursday night at Spry Stadium in Winston Salem, N.C., to move to 4-0-1 in the ACC and stay atop the league standings. Duke played without three starters—senior Rebecca Quinn and sophomore Kayla McCoy are out for the year and sophomore Taylor Racioppi has a lower-leg injury—but an Imani Dorsey

goal in the 19th minute made the difference as the Blue Devil defense recorded its fourth straight shutout. “If we need to grind it out, we can grind it out,” Duke head coach Robbie Church said. “We learned that this team can win a couple different ways, not just playing a pretty game of passing around.” Senior All-American Christina Gibbons set up the Dorsey goal, running a give-and-go on the left side of the box before the Wake Forest defense stole the ball. But Gibbons quickly recovered possession and slid a leading pass in front of the goal to Dorsey, who tapped it in for her sixth goal of the year—tied for most on the team. Dorsey also ripped a shot from outside the box with two minutes left to play in the half, though Demon Deacon goalkeeper Lindsay Preston stopped it to keep her team within one. See W.

tournament],” Duke head coach Pam Bustin said. “It’s a good test for us to individually stay organized and individually stay prepared and making sure that the focus is just on taking care of business this weekend.” In the Blue Devils’ win Sunday, standout freshman Margaux Paolino opened the scoring with her first goal of the season—she is among the nation’s best with 10 assists this season. The good news for Paolino continued when she was named to the U.S. U21 national team that will compete at the Junior World Cup following the season. The Villanova, Pa., native is far from Duke’s only offensive star. Senior Heather Morris

was named co-ACC Offensive Player of the Week after scoring three goals last weekend, including the game-winner Sunday against the Terriers, and has already tied a career high with 11 goals this year. Junior defender Alyssa Chillano frequently goes forward to anchor the Blue Devil attack on penalty corners, and is one of seven Duke players with multiple goals this season—12 Blue Devils in total have found the net. Duke (10-1, 3-0 in the ACC) will look to keep the pressure on Syracuse goalkeeper Regan Spencer to protect its own defense since Syracuse has an offense that is just as potent as Duke’s. Both teams are in the top

10 nationally in goals per game with 3.7 and have scoring margins higher than 2.2, and five Orange players have at least five goals already this season. The similarities between the top-five teams extend up front, as Syracuse forward Lies Lagerweij leads the Orange (10-1, 3-1) with 11 goals on the season to match Morris’ total. Although both teams boast potent offenses, their defenses are equally steady, meaning Friday’s game could turn into a defensive battle like it did in Durham last year, when the Orange escaped with a 1-0 overtime win. “You always think about last year—the outcome of the game,” Chillano said. “But it’s a new year and we have a new team, and we’re prepared to just go at them.” Chillano and redshirt freshman goalkeeper Sammi Steele will anchor Duke’s defense, which allowed three goals for the first time all year against North Carolina. All three came in a 20-minute second-half stretch, and quick momentum swings could once again be the difference Friday. Although the Blue Devils face another stiff test Friday, things will not get easier when they travel to take on Princeton (6-4) after the Syracuse game. The Tigers are 4-2 at home, and all four of their losses have come against top-15 competition as Princeton too has navigated a brutal schedule. The Tigers allow 1.7 goals per game, but have made up for occasional defensive lapses with an offense that produces 2.5 tallies per contest. Junior Ryan McCarthy leads the way for Princeton with seven goals and three assists, and the Tigers will look to avenge a 1-0 loss from 2014—the last time Duke and See FIELD HOCKEY on Page 9

MEN’S SOCCER

Reeling Blue Devils face top-20 road test Michael Model The Chronicle Following their most deflating loss of an up-and-down season, the Blue Devils will jump back into conference play hoping to rebound. Duke will travel to Blacksburg, Va., to square off with No. 18 Virginia Tech Friday at 7 p.m. at Thompson Field following a 3-1 loss to Davidson Tuesday in which the Wildcats scored twice in the final 25 minutes to Duke break a 1-1 tie despite vs. being outshot 11-5 in the second half. No. 18 Va. Tech The loss epitomized the Blue Devils’ FRIDAY, 7 p.m. offensive inconsistency Thompson Stadium this season—Duke has scored just eight goals in its last eight games despite generating more than 14 shots per game this season—and the normally-reliable Blue Devil defense finally broke down, allowing three goals for the first time all year. “We’re going to have to get ourselves organized,” Duke head coach John Kerr said after Tuesday’s game. “Some movement of the ball was okay, but just not fast enough to move them.... We were a little careless with the ball and then we got punished.” The Blue Devils (4-4-2, 1-2-1 in the ACC) started the year 2-0-1 following a road upset at

then-No. 9 UCLA, but have since floundered and now will likely need an improbable finish to the season to make the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2011. A week before falling to Davidson, Duke lost to Georgia State for the first time ever. Although the Blue Devils won at N.C. State in between the two losses, they have struggled with consistency since upsetting the Bruins—which might not bode well against a team that allows 0.7 goals per contest in the Hokies (8-2-1, 1-2-1). Virginia Tech boasts the same ACC record as Duke, but the Hokies have only suffered setbacks this season against then-No. 1 Notre Dame and then-No. 7 Clemson and have beaten two ranked teams this year. Despite its strong start to the season, Virginia Tech is also hoping to jumpstart its offense after scoring only one goal in its last two ACC games, and forward Marcelo Acuna is the likely candidate to spark the Hokies. The junior from Costa Rica leads the team with eight goals this season, including three tallies on five shots in Tuesday’s 7-1 victory against the Virginia Military Institute in which Virginia Tech took out its offensive frustrations. Even with their struggles scoring against top ACC competition, the Hokies still average more than two goals per game compared to Duke’s 1.4. Seven Virginia Tech players have scored multiple goals this year, a feat only three Blue Devils have

accomplished in 10 games. To stay in the game against the Hokies, Duke’s defense will have to get back on track and do a better job protecting goalkeeper Robert Moewes, who is among the ACC’s best in saves per game. The Blue Devil offense could also give its defense a boost by finding the back of the net early Friday as it did a week ago in the win against N.C. State. “It’s tough, we’ve created a lot of chances this season and we’re not as sharp in front of

goal as we need to be,” Kerr said. “We’re not decisive and we’re not punishing teams.” The most likely candidates to get Duke on the scoreboard are juniors Cameron Moseley and Brian White and freshman Suniel Veerakone, who have scored nine of the team’s 14 goals this year. The Blue Devils need the trio to stay consistent Friday and get boosts from their other players if they hope to notch a second top-20 road upset. See M. SOCCER on Page 9

VOLLEYBALL

Duke tries to hand Pittsburgh first ACC loss Emily Davis The Chronicle Although the Blue Devils have won five of their last six games, a red-hot opponent that is unbeaten in ACC play stands in their way for the second straight week. Following a four-set loss at Notre Dame and road sweep of Louisville, Duke will host Pittsburgh Friday Pittsburgh at 6:30 p.m. before taking on Virginia vs. Tech Sunday at 1 p.m. at Cameron Indoor Duke Stadium. The Blue Devils are one of five FRIDAY, 6:30 p.m. Cameron Indoor Stadium teams better than .500 early in conference Virginia play, so protecting Tech their home court vs. against a Panther team that is one of Duke four squads with a 4-0 ACC record could give SUNDAY, 1 p.m. a young Duke team a Cameron Indoor Stadium much-needed boost. The Blue Devils are trying to keep an outside shot at an NCAA tournament bid alive. Duke will also play both Pittsburgh and the Hokies again later in conference play. “It’s hard to make the underclassmen really understand what ACC is,” senior middle blocker Jordan Tucker said. “Obviously, I’ve been lucky enough to have experience—this is my fourth year—so I know what it means

and I know how important every set is.” The Blue Devils (9-5, 3-1 in the ACC) own a three-game home winning streak and hope to show they can hang with the conference’s best teams after dropping a tight match against the Fighting Irish last week. Duke’s youth has shown at times this season and did again in South Bend, Ind., as Blue Devil errors in the first two sets allowed Notre Dame to take a decisive 2-0 lead and deal Duke its first loss in conference play. The Fighting Irish blockers stymied the Blue Devil offense with 19.5 blocks—a key stat to watch Friday when Pittsburgh (13-3, 4-0)

tries to build on its six-game winning streak and avenge last year’s 3-2 loss at Cameron Indoor Stadium. The Panthers have taken down two ranked teams already this season and have four players with hitting percentages better than .300—Duke has just one— including freshman star Layne Van Buskirk. Van Buskirk’s eye-popping .419 hitting percentage is tops in the ACC and 10th in the nation, and the Canadian middle blocker has already been named ACC Freshman of the Week twice this year. She will pose a unique challenge for

Tucker, sophomore Leah Meyer and the Blue Devils’ other blockers, who hope to ride the momentum from their dominant performance at Louisville into Friday’s contest. “Jordan’s ability to play defense when we need it is really exciting to see,” Duke head coach Jolene Nagel said. “Volleyball is just a game of momentum and we need to understand we all need to be at a certain level like that intensity-wise to be able to execute like we’re capable.” Nagel is hoping young stars like Meyer, freshman outside hitter Jamie Stivers and freshman setter Cindy Marina can continue their recent improvement against Pittsburgh—the trio has helped spark a Blue Devil squad that struggled to a 4-4 record to start the year. Following its contest against Pittsburgh, Duke’s youth will be tested again when it takes on Virginia Tech (7-8, 2-2), which has won just four of 30 matchups against the Blue Devils. This year’s Hokie team could be poised to knock off Duke despite a 1-5 road record led by a trio of senior outside hitters. Lindsey Owens leads the trio after pacing Virginia Tech in kills last season and notching 24 digs in the Hokies’ 3-1 loss in Durham last year. Owens’ classmate Amanda McKinzie has stepped up for Virginia Tech lately and leads the team in kills in conference games—the Hokies have swept Clemson and Virginia and suffered 3-1 setbacks to Pittsburgh and See VOLLEYBALL on Page 9

Princeton went head-to-head. “It’s definitely going to be a little challenge for our team,” Chillano said. “But if we face the challenge head on and take it as something that we can overcome, having that mindset will help us on the field.”

balanced, with six players compiling at least 100 rushing yards so far this season. Junior Ahmad Bradshaw runs the offense from the quarterback position, and will be looking to lead Army toward redemption after a 44-3 thrashing by Duke last season in West Point, N.Y. But the Blue Devils are well aware that last season’s game—one in which they forced seven fumbles—far from guarantees the same results this time around. “We’re going to come at them with different wrinkles and they’re going to be ready for them. It’s a different team than they were last year—they’re more experienced and looking at the film, they’re a lot better,” sophomore linebacker Ben Humphreys said. “Just a year more experienced. The offensive line looks bigger, faster, stronger. You can definitely tell a difference between one year and the next.” One other major difference is that Duke will not have All-American strike safety Jeremy Cash, whose athleticism and instincts near the line of scrimmage were vital in stopping the triple-option. But that has not lowered the confidence of the Blue Devils, who have received plenty of contributions from a young defensive front this season and are tied for fourth nationally with 4.0 sacks per game. Duke has had success in recent years against other teams that also employ an option-based attack, which Humphreys attributed to the Blue Devil coaching staff and their defensive strategies. “That’s a lot in part because [defensive coordinator Jim] Knowles is the king of the triple option. I’ll say that every year if I have to,” Humphreys said. “He is so smart in what he does in preparing for the triple option.

M. SOCCER from page 7 Among the others who could make their mark with a breakout game are graduate student Ryan Thompson and senior Jared Golestani, who have each scored one goal this season. Friday’s game starts a daunting stretch for Kerr’s team, which will take on No. 4 North Carolina and No. 2 Notre Dame in the coming weeks. “If we’re going to get on the winning side of things going forward, we need to punish teams when we get these opportunities,” Kerr said. Cade McCurdy contributed reporting.

VOLLEYBALL from page 8 Georgia Tech so far in league play. With plenty of time left to build a solid NCAA tournament resume, the Blue Devils are happy to be returning home to host their next two games and hope they can keep their winning streak at Cameron going moving forward. “We just want to keep going and play well in the ACC for as long as we can. We just want to play hard—we want to get better,” Tucker said. “We just have to keep reminding ourselves that we have a goal in mind to come here in November so we got to keep it all in perspective.”

all break is just around the corner, which means that the members of the Editorial Board have a fun five days planned. Of course, since we are one hive-minded entity, all 14 of us will be doing everything together for fall break. Here are our plans: Friday, 7 pm: Fall break begins We will convene in Flowers 201. For 60 hours, we will sit in our stiff wooden chairs, going on a rampage of hyper criticism, stemming from our hunger for power. As always, we will begin with DSG before tackling our administration, including some of the most beloved members of our University. Once we have completed our tirades against the institution in which we sit, we will move on to student organizations, even the most benign of which act in complete selfinterest motivated by a line on a resume. By Hour 43, we will have exhausted entities to criticize and turn toward the Chronicle itself, penning a 550 word rebuke of our newspaper. Monday, 7 am: Vindictiveness We will shift our focus to those who have dared to cross us by responding to Chronicle commenters with our bitterest bile and taking satisfaction in the knowledge that we

trumped these anonymous trolls with our skillful online debate. Monday, high noon: Nutrition We will be quite hungry by this point—after all, we’ll have gone 65 hours without food. We will gain sustenance by eating ice cream while reading the Harvard Crimson editorial page and silently weeping. When we have calmed down a bit, we will move on to scouring the Atlantic for new things to be mad about.

Editorial

Monday, 2 pm: Relaxation Of course, just as any Duke student, we are going to have fun and relax on our fall break. We’ll start off by settling in with a nice book, preferably fiction. Then, we will do some math, all the while appreciating its place in a liberal arts education. Monday, 7 pm: Making Duke a better place Through the night between Monday and Tuesday, we will work to implement some of our more daring proposals for improving Duke. Our first order of business will be constructing a new safe

Even on fall break, all students should be engaged in introspecting and critically examining the basis of their worldview. Tuesday, 11 pm: Wait, we have a problem set due? What kind of professor assigns a problem set to be due the day after fall break? Thanks a lot, Duke. Wednesday, 7 am: Publication After a full night of homework, Edit Board resumes normal publication but grows disillusioned and nihilistic about the university experience. Increasingly angry at the world, the week’s editorials turn into a crazed ten thousand word manifesto. At its peak levels of Ivory Tower syndrome, the Board itself finally disappears in a puff of critical smoke. As you can see, we have a fun fall break planned. We wish you and yours an equally relaxing five days’ respite from this pressure cooker we love to hate. In case you couldn’t tell, this editorial was a joke! Have a great fall break!

wo words are enough to infuriate a certain subset of the American public. These words are synonymous for the decline of America. These words are the epitome of why we don’t win anymore: “participation trophy.” To some, participation trophies represent the irrevocable erosion of the exceptionalism that has characterized our nation for generations. The idea that one should reward a child for participating in an athletic event regardless of that child’s actual prowess, is simply sacrilege. However, I would argue that encouraging participation in athletics, rather than excellence, is the more important priority for our country. In all fairness, we kind of have the excellence thing down. In Rio this summer, U.S. athletes took home an astounding 121 medals, the most medals won by a U.S. team in a non-boycotted Olympics. The U.S. women’s basketball team was so dominant that their gold medal win represented their 49thstraight victory. The state of Maryland alone took home so many medals that it would have placed 12th

active? Not surprisingly, environmental factors play a huge role. Those with lower incomes, less free time, without access to exercise facilities and living in unsafe neighborhoods are less likely to exercise. Clearly, this is one of the many ways that inequities in society manifest as health inequities via the social determinants of health. Socioeconomic disparities, poor urban design and lack of investment in public health infrastructure all contribute to our low rates of physical activity. Yet one of the more surprising factors associated with being sedentary is the “perception of great effort needed to exercise.” It seems that the perception that exercise must be difficult or intense is enough to dissuade some people from engaging in exercise. When reading studies on the benefits of exercise, it is telling to examine the methodology sections. When the research is examined more closely, it seems that benefits are obtained from very moderate physical activity, which many not even perceive as “exercise.” In the study of patients with increased Alzheimer’s risk, participating in “moderately difficult chores” for

in the medal count if it were a country. In contrast to our prowess at winning international sporting events, as a nation, we’re not so great at participating in physical activity. The government recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes a week of moderate aerobic exercise or 75 minutes a week of vigorous aerobic exercise, with muscle strengthening exercises two days a week. While vigorous exercise is defined as swimming, running or biking up hills, moderate exercise can include everything from line dancing to gardening. While this may seem like a modest suggestion, only about one in five adults get the recommended amount of physical activity each week. It’s hard to overstate the benefits of exercise. Exercise seems to have beneficial effects on nearly every facet of the body and improves mental health as well. A study conducted at Duke in the late 1990s found that moderate exercise was effective at reducing depression in older adult males, and that the effect was comparable to taking an antidepressant. Researchers following a group of adults at high risk for Alzheimer’s, found that exercise was protective against atrophy of hippocampus, which is important for proper memory function. Exercise lowers blood pressure and cholesterol, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Compared to those who exercise less than 30 minutes a week, those who exercise seven hours a week have a 40 percent lower risk of dying early. So, what keeps us, as a nation, from being more

45 minutes three times a week, was enough exercise to gain protective effects. Given these findings, the perception that great effort is needed to exercise is particularly misplaced. Great benefits can be obtained from only moderate activity. So, the good news is that the bar is pretty low for exercise. You don’t have to be flipping tires or running a sub seven-minute mile to gain really fantastic physical and mental benefits. Which brings me back to those participation trophies. From a health perspective, it doesn’t make a huge difference whether you run or win your neighborhood 5K this weekend. Even walking the 5K, rather than staying home and watching Netflix, is enough confer some major benefits. It seems that those handing out participation trophies are onto something—when it comes to exercise, just by showing up, you win. College and graduate school are times of change and fluctuation. The previously established outlets for physical activity may no longer be available, and academic demands on time may be greater than ever before. One of the most powerful things that students can do to promote their health and wellness is to keep moving. The good news regarding physical activity is that you do not have to be great. You do not have to even be good. But you really, really need to keep moving. Lauren Groskaufmanis is a graduate student in the school of medicine.

The Duke Men’s Project, Efficient vs. Effective in our own words S

T

o use the words “feminism” or “patriarchy” amongst men is to immediately run into skepticism and occasionally deep-seated insecurities. “When you say feminism and patriarchy,” a man calls out, “what you really mean is that men are the problem. You mean I’m the problem. I’m not a rapist/abuser/bad guy.” This is a response heard frequently when men go on the defensive. It’s a response that anticipates an adversarial gender relation, that imagines the feminist conversation as a battle to the death of women versus men. Such responses are common but misplaced. When we’re talking about patriarchy, it’s not to make the claim that each and every individual man is to blame for gender oppression, nor

which has both greatly influenced and mentored our mission. The UNC Men’s Project runs a nine-week long curriculum, which sees a cohort of students get together each week to discuss men’s experiences with various elements and intersections of masculinity. In these sessions, they seek to create a male space with conversations focused on inclusion rather than exclusion; to bypass the turning of the shoulder that often happens when men think it’s better to suffer alone in strength than talk in vulnerability, to challenge the way we have traditionally thought of manhood in order to raise the standard of good men in tackling sexism and gender violence. The Duke Men’s Project is a direct

tress is par for the course when it comes to surviving the rigors of a top-ten university. One 2008 study found that 80 percent of college students reported feeling stress daily, with 34 percent having felt depressed in the past three months. A lot of us assume that this is unavoidable. I know I used to. “If I didn’t feel on the verge of a nervous breakdown then how would I know that I was pushing the limits of my academic capabilities?” Recently, though, I started to realize that there must be some other way to exist. Simply surviving from project to project and looking forward to weekends as beacons of light in the encroaching darkness isn’t what I want to do for the next two-and-a-half years of my life. If we can agree that survival is no longer the goal and instead living

that each and every individual man is a bad or oppressive person. What we are talking about is something larger, an imbalanced social system and the cultural processes that reproduce it. What is mischaracterized as a barefaced assault is actually a re-examination of the terms of becoming; we are not talking about individuals, but the ways in which our culture shapes individuals to be men, both positively and negatively. Gender does indeed shape the world we live in and the intimate ways we experience it. One only has to look as far as the disproportionate statistics that illustrate the decisive role gender plays in our movement through the world, and in particular a power relation that is skewed toward men: the overwhelming amount of violence that’s committed by men, the staggering percentage of women who experience gender violence, the underrepresentation of women in leadership and the media, the homicides of transgender individuals, as a few examples. This is a society that privileges and advantages men in certain and specific ways, while denying the same advantages to women and non-male identifying individuals. And while patriarchy and its assumption of male superiority does benefit men, it also exacts profound costs from them: high rates of suicide born of emotional suppression, incarceration and the murder of men are just the other side of the same coin of toxic masculinity. It is useful to borrow bell hooks’ definition of feminism as “a movement to end sexism, sexist exploitation and oppression.” What’s clear here is that the feminist movement is a movement about gender equity and anti-sexism. It is not anti-male, but a movement in which men have a clear need to be accountable for the violence produced by the patriarchy and have a stake in their own extraction from systems of violence Over the past century, this movement has been led tremendously by women, and men have been largely missing from the gender equity conversation. It’s this legacy that the Duke Men’s Project follows and seeks to speak to. The Duke Men’s Project is a proudly feminist initiative and one that fixes the patriarchy directly in its sights. It originated within the Duke Women’s Center during the spring of 2016, working from the results of a survey that indicated a desire from men on campus to have a men’s group focused on gender equity efforts. It owes its concept and structure to the UNC Men’s Project,

descendant of this concept, a call to action for men in which the first step is to look inwards at where we may be entangled in these issues. If the standard of being a good, normal man is simply a definition by negation, of not being a rapist, an abuser, a bad man—we have to simply ask if that is good enough. Violence doesn’t emerge fully hatched out of the swamp as something extraordinary and isolated; there is a culture that incubates, normalizes, permits it to come to be; gender and masculinity are part of this culture. We are all part of this culture as products and influencers. For men, we need to ask valuable questions such as what are the costs of “being a man”? Who does masculinity affect and exclude? How are we to resolve masculinity as a knife that can cut both ways, both toward women and non-male identified individuals, and also against ourselves? How can we be both better allies to feminism and better men in general? These are complex questions with no simple answers, and we are forever learning. While we recognize the value of safe spaces on campus, the Men’s Project is not intended as one. Instead, it intentionally seeks to radically challenge, decenter and destabilize what we might consider normal, to lean specifically into dialogues of discomfort, disagreement and tension in reckoning with sexist systems that allow us unique advantages, while disadvantaging others. This is not to say that masculinity is to be destroyed, but that we need to agitate and rethink its elements and role in an anti-sexist society. To borrow again from hooks, “Imagine living in a world where there is no domination, where females and males are not alike or even always equal, but where a vision of mutuality is the ethos shaping our interaction. Imagine living in a world where we can all be who we are, a world of peace and possibility…Come closer and see that feminism is for everybody.” Where women-led initiatives such as the Women’s Center, Duke Support, The Feminist MakeSpace, Women’s Collective and so many more have contributed most of the labor towards gender equity on this campus, the Duke Men’s Project seeks to bring men to this conversation. We thank these feminists, womanists and other activists who have led this movement and guided this vision, whose lead we will continue to follow. Now, long overdue, it is time for men to step up to the plate. Andrew Tan-Delli Cicchi is a senior and founding member of the Duke Men’s Project.

well and enjoying college has become number one on the agenda, then there is an unavoidable next question: what is the best use of our time? The answer to this question is going to vary based on a wide variety of factors. If you’ve spoken to your parents recently then it’s likely that they refocused you on academics. If you uncovered a new project or passion then you probably want to burrow down that rabbit hole. Regardless of your current interests, one rule trumps them all when it comes to managing time and enjoying life: the most important goal is that you spend the most time on what you want to do and the least time on what you have to do. This is a recipe for excitement and pleasure, living life with utmost happiness. A Forbes article from earlier this year discussed research that links happiness with experiences, not things. We instinctively know this to be true—buying more things isn’t going to make you happier. In the same manner, spending your time to buy more academic “accomplishments” and “résumé-builders” instead of spending it on memorable stories will be ultimately unfulfilling. What this research means is that you need to reclaim your time. Still, while logic tells us to “max out” on those things that we enjoy, it is nonetheless all too convenient to fall back on the classic excuse, “I don’t have the time.” How sad that we so easily convince ourselves we have no time for the things that make us happy. It’s true that we attend a top-notch university. Academics are rigorous, social output is exhausting and competition is high. It makes sense that the time commitment stresses some of us and overwhelms others. And yet, thousands of individuals before us have gone through the same circumstances and achieved far more, lived far more and enjoyed far more than we have. Are they doing something differently? What do you need to do to reclaim the time you so dearly miss? To begin, maybe you should try being effective instead of just efficient. You may first need to discover that you’re

wasting a lot more time than you realize and still achieving substandard results. Reaching the (somewhat egobruising) conclusion that I have been wasting a massive percentage of my life required me to read a very relatable passage from Tim Ferris’ bestseller, The 4-Hour Workweek: “Since we have 8 hours to fill, we fill 8 hours. If we had 15, we would fill 15. If we have an emergency and need to suddenly leave work in 2 hours but have pending deadlines, we miraculously complete those assignments in 2 hours.” This is the difference between being efficient and being effective. Efficiency is the art of getting any task done in the most economical way possible. Effectiveness is only doing the things that bring you closer to your goals. (When I realized the distinction, I

almost requested that my tagline be changed from “more percent efficient” to “more percent effective.”) Efficiency is a well-practiced skill among many college students—we’re masters of managing one million and one commitments, to-do’s and assignments while juggling social life and dealing with inevitable moments of late-teenage angst. Effectiveness, on the other hand, has been relegated somewhere down in the dark, musty bowels of a dungeonesque library, its secrets lost for too long. Efficiency is non-discriminatory. Effectiveness is stringently selective. Having developed efficiency, one can work ten- to twelve-hour days and go to bed exhausted every night having conquered a monstrous to-do list. Having developed effectiveness, one can work four-hour days and enjoy a good book before sleep having accomplished just one or two major action steps. The biggest difference? Being effective reduces stress while boosting your productive output massively. So what am I saying? Stop creating huge daily task lists? Yes. Stop signing up for more clubs and meetings and conference calls and listserves and committees? Yes. Stop doing homework? Maybe... We’re surrounded by people who are ambitious, driven and passionate. The temptation to compete can be overwhelming. But it’s important to realize that everyone is fighting in their own arena. Your job is to battle your own beasts and let everyone else focus on theirs. Set strict personal deadlines, this will force you to minimize nonessentials. Carefully examine tasks and, yes, even assignments that try to make their way onto your schedule. Ask, “Is this completely necessary?” Above all, know that doing less is not a sign of laziness, it’s a sign of well-balanced priorities. Your time is valuable. Start spending it effectively instead of just parsing it out efficiently. Jack Dolinar is a Trinity sophomore. His column, “more percent efficient,” runs on alternate Fridays.
