Lawyers clarify union vote plan

The

Unofficial Graduation

By MARKO DJUKANOVIC The Chronicle

HILLSBOROUGH Last Thursday, the lawyers for the International Union of Operating Engineers and Duke University Health System scheduled a unionization vote for early June and decided which nurses will be allowed to participate. With about a dozen nurses in attendance and in front of a National Labor Relations Board representative, the lawyers from lUOE and DUHS agreed to allow all registered nurses on Duke’s main campus to vote on whether to join

a union.

hen the Class of 2004 enters the University l/l this fall, it will face a new set of academic f V requirements under Curriculum 2000. Yet five graduation requirements remain the same—the unI

official ones. “Part of it is tradition and part of it just bragging rights. Part of it is just doing a couple more really stupid things before you graduate and have to be out in the real world,” said Trinity senior Cory Chen of the five unofficial

tasks’ appeal. Most students said the unofficial requirements are a topic of late-night conversations more than personal goals. There are also those undergrads who see them as an essential part of Duke tradition. “It was definitely a priority of mine to accomplish them,” said Trinity senior Dan Huber.

University Archivist Bill King said the origins are unknown, but probably not oflong-lived tradition. ‘They were not here in 1961 when I graduated; they could well have begun in the late ’6os when students started questioning authority,” he said. Indeed, all five of the requirements are criminal acts that the administration does not condone. That being said, with just two weeks left until the members of the Class of 2000 reach their deadline, The Chronicle decided it was time take a closer look at the five tasks and provide a little guidance for those who have yet to unofficially graduate.

Mike Israel, CEO of Duke Hospital, said the filed petition mainly addressed issues at Duke, so nurses at Durham Regional and Raleigh Community hospitals should not be included in the June vote. lUOE lawyer Seth Cohen said the agreement approved 37 separate classifications of nurses for voting and removed the names of supervisors one by one. Union supporters collected around 1,000 signatures to force the vote, which is scheduled for June 2 and 3. Previous estimates suggested that 1,400 nurses would participate in the vote, but the final list, which will be released Thursday, is expected to include about 2,000 See UNION VOTE on page

Committee drafts event policy plan

10 S*

By JAIME LEVY The Chronicle

After incorporating the feedback of about 20 students, a set of suggested changes to the University’s

event planning policies was submitted last week to Vice

President for Student Affairs Janet Dickerson.

Tm actually very pleased with the process that the nnal product included, in that there were students putting input into every single word of the recommendations,” said Duke Student Government Vice President lor Student Affairs Jasmin French, stressing that the report to Dickerson is only a recommendation. Dickerson could not be reached this weekend to comment on how likely she is to implement the suggested changes. An earlier draft—crafted without student feedback ey officials from student affairs, auxiliary services and ampus Police—suggested several controversial changes. But the final report relegates these issues—like Prohibiting alcohol purchases with University funds, al°wing only small gatherings in commons rooms, requir‘rrg all events involving alcohol to be registered and subsidizing security costs—to a section of “items requiring hrfther discussion.” See EVENT

Gay rights activists march on Capito By GENARO ARMAS Associated Press

WASHINGTON Hundreds of thousands of gays and supporters marched Sunday on the Capitol, transforming the National Mall into a sea of multicolored flags and joining hands in a show of unity they hope will transform recent victories into wider protections for homosexuals. “We’re only asking for the same rights as anyone else,” Adam May of Atlanta declared as he walked with the throngs of marchers. “Depriving one person... puts everyone at risk of losing.” In a crowd dotted with openly gay celebrities, the marchers celebrated a week of victories that includ-

Ed the passage of a new law in Vermont giving gays marriage-like rights and a renewed plea by President Bill Clinton for a federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act. But participants vowed not to rest until same-se: couples get equal rights in all 50 states, and somi wore costumes or carried signs calling attention ti fights still on the horizon. One man wearing a Boy Scout uniform held up sign saying, “Straight Scouts for gay scouts,” calling attention to a case heard by the Supreme Court las! week in which a Scout leader was fired because he was gay. Others carried signs saying “Stop Hate Crimes” and chanted “full rights for gays.”

A Good Paint rvicc t Reasonable

Indigo Girls rock Page Auditorium Last Wednesday night in Page Auditorium, the campus controversy over the Indigo Girls headlining the Last Day of Classes Concert was forgotten as the band entertained a crowd of 1,200 in the packed hall. True to their activist reputation, Emily Saliers and Amy Ray played several songs with political messages—for example, “Go” and “Faye Tucker,” both tracks from the 1999 album Come On Now Social. The former was composed in response to the cancellation of an Indigo Girls concert at a South Carolina high school because of their outspoken lesbianism; the latter to draw attention to the execution of bom-again Christian Karla Faye Tucker in Texas last year. During their encore, the group—to scattered protest—asked the audience to write Sen. John Edwards, DN.C., to stop a bill allowing the transportation of nuclear waste across the continental United States. But the two women, who used a variety of acoustic guitars throughout the evening, drew their most enthusiastic reaction from the crowd with classics such

as “Jonas and Ezekiel,” “Galileo” and “Closer To Fine,” which the group dedicated to an audience member. Ray and Saliers gave each other breaks by performing two songs on their own. Ray played “Sister,” a vigorous banjo solo, while Saliers offered the softer “Philosophy ofLove,” a hidden track on Come On Now Social. The first opening act, Agents of Good Roots, was rather sparsely attended, but seemed to have a few devoted fans in the audience. Nevertheless, lead singer Brian Jones kept repeating the group’s name and pointed out that his brother had been a student at

the University. In contrast, the second opening act, Michelle Malone, met a more enthusiastic reception, especially when Saliers and Ray joined Malone and her percussionist for two songs. After this act, the doors of Page were opened to let in students who had not been able to get tickets in the afternoon, and every seat in the auditorium was filled. —By Norbert Schiirer

Pg In these last few days of school, many seniors have been toiling night and day to finish their honors theses on time. But was it worth the Herculean effort to receive distinction status on the graduation program? “Towards the end, I was wondering if I would get it done at all,” said Trinity senior Thomas Burns, a political science major. “I was hardly getting any sleep

during the last four weeks, skipping class and all sorts of things.” However, he added that he was glad to have undertaken the endeavor. “Once I got into my topic it was pretty fun,” said Bums, who wrote about ethnic conflict in Ireland. “It was a pity that I didn’t have another semester to work on it more.” Graduating with distinction requires proof of academic achievement, faculty recommendations, the approval ofthe department, a substantial thesis of generally at least 50 pages and an oral defense. Every department in Trinity College and the Pratt School of Engineering has its own take on those basic requirements, and the process is highly individualized to the applicant and to the department. “We take into account their general performance thus far in work they’ve done,” said lan Baucom, assistant professor of English, who coordinates the department’s distinction program. “We want to have a sense of [their] facility for this kind ofwork.” Last year, 73 Trinity students and 31

Unlike Duke, some universities, such as Princeton, require their seniors to write a thesis. Faculty and students said the honors thesis is an excellent research opportunity for those who want to attend graduate school. “I think for those students who are going to continue professionally in the sciences, writing a senior undergraduate thesis is justpreparation for [the future],”

said Ronald Grunwald, biology’s associate director of undergraduate studies. Trinity junior Joanne Gonzales, who was accepted into next year’s English department’s honors program, does not believe writing a thesis is necessary for graduate school—but that it is helpful. “I feel more prepared for the volume of writing and research that you’d have to do as a graduate student,” said Gonzales, who See

Change

is in the air at Duke University. Administrators are leaving. Construction sites are forming. New curriculums are beginning. When Duke students return this fall to the Gothic Wonderland, things are not going to be the same as they are right now. And while the University did e-mail students about many of the changes that are coming, especially those regarding the construction of new dormitories, some of the exciting changes were conspicuously unmentioned: To comply with the recent referendum on privatizing the Oak Room, the University will be announcing that the Oak Room has been sold—to Mean Gene’s. Whether students will eat the shrimp asiago that says “bite me” is yet to be seen. Following the dean of the Chapel’s decision not to abide by DSG’s motion to permit same-sex marriage, DSG voted unanimously to change the Chapel into a student recreation center. The main aisle will become a bowling alley, pool tables will replace the pews and a big screen television and Alpine-run smoothie bar will replace the altar. Everyday at 5 p.m. instead of bells, the Chapel tower will play “The Thong Song.” The system ofrequiring students to log in at computer clusters will be expanded this fall. All dorm rooms, the Bryan Center and all public restrooms will be outfitted with retinal scanners. Paper towel dispensers will be outfitted with a thumbprint identification system. The Wilson Recreation Center will be changing its hours again. In an effort to comply with student demand for late-night gym access, the Wilßec will now be open from 12:30 to 1:15 a.m. Thursday through Sunday for general student use. In an effort to curb on-campus drinking, the University will be building “bar cozies” out ofDuke stone to hide the site of unsightly alcoholserving establishments. The University is trying to find out if seeing a gigantic waste of money will deter drinking. Former varsity athlete Corey Maggette will be entering a new career this fall. Having proven his fund-raising prowess, Maggette will be tapped by Pat Buchanan to serve as the vice-presidential nominee on the Reform Party ticket. The Chronicle, recently declared a monopoly, will be split into two newspapers this fall—one paper that just runs news stories and another paper that just runs ads. Following a veiy large donation, the Interfratemity Council will be in charge of the Undergraduate Judicial Board. To alleviate parking concerns, the University will switch to an “allburro” system of transporting students from their cars to campus. This will greatly increase the amount of“good ass” available on campus. Finally, the newly established search committee has announced that Britney Spears will be replacing Janet Dickerson—bringing a whole new meaning to “Student Affairs.” The Chronicle wishes everyone a great summer.

Fraternities are an integral part of university li I was not even a member of a fraternity during my four years at Duke, but reading Trinity sophomore Patrick Horton’s letter to the editor in the April 26 edition of The Chronicle makes me nauseous. Fraternities are a fundamental and exciting part of campus life. The reason I did not join a fraternity was because I had a core group of friends who wanted to remain independent, and I was interested in blocking with them. However, I always respected the camaraderie and infectious togetherness displayed by individual fraternities. Don’t get me wrong, some fraternities were, in my opinion, some of the biggest

Patrick Bardill and Andrew Exnicios little misguided at

Well, we suppose that’s it. No longer protected from the harsh glare of the public by our masks of anonymity, we stand revealed before you all. It’s been one hell of run. Hands down, we are the greatest Monday, Mondays in history, and we will take on all who would claim otherwise. We know there are at least three of our predecessors on campus and we got no qualms about showing you all what we got. Frankly, any idiot can rant for 750 words but it takes talent—no, genius—to craft jokes. And that’s just what we did, week in week out, for 14 glorious columns. To those of you who knew that our name, not to mention our sometimes shamelessly self-aggrandizing tone, came from Tenacious D, the greatest band on earth, and caught our übiquitous references to that great duo, good for you. To those of you who have no idea about The D, go get their songs through Napster. That’s right, go flood the servers and create some network outages, you’ve earned it. Far be it from us, though, to encourage you to do anything illegal. Except for the sign on our door advertising free liquor that keeps attracting freshmen into our room (just ask Prilla and Jen) we’ve hardly broken any laws this semester. Kudos to those of you who had us pegged from the beginning, despite our constant claims to the contrary (Sarah and Katie), And to those of you who could never quite put two and two together (Paul “Big Diesel” Weber) you should be ashamed of yourselves. To those ofyou who constantly

times —we’ll try not to hold it against you. Now for some individual thoughts. Patrick: When Andrew and I first started this, we were the best of friends. Now. I can hardly stand him. Every time I look at him I think about the time he cut my joke about paraplegic prostitutes. And let’s not even get into the time he put the Star Wars reference into the column. Seriously though, without Andrew this column wouldn’t have been half as funny or as enjoyable to write. Thanks must also go out to Kari Forde-Anderson, who got a sneak peek at the column and was always honest about what she thought even though none of them were devoted to her. Lastly, I have to thank my parents, especially my mom who gave birth to me 21 years ago today. That’s right WONDERBOY is now a WONDERMAN. Anyone wishing to celebrate knows how to find me. Andrew: Thanks Dad, for letting NASTYMAN know when he’d crossed the line. Thanks Mom for telling me how funny I was no matter how good or bad the column was. Thanks to Michael Dauber for that line about sorostitutes. Mike doesn’t go to school here at Duke, or anywhere for that matter, but we’re all hoping that he gets out ofrehab real soon. I have a special thank you for that hottie Amy Congdon for always letting me know what sucked and what was funny (and for being the best friend a guy could have). And most of all, thank you Patrick. All I gotsta say is, way to be partner, way to be. From both of us, props to U.S. Attorney

General Janet Reno, who apparently read our column about killing Elian Gonzalez before sending a bunch of armed-to-theteeth federal agents to “liberate” the boy. Janet, it was only a joke. The attention is flattering, but you really gotta lay off the

cough syrup. Also thank you Bazinsky/Epstein/Pi Phi for providing gobs of material (or very little material that we just happened to pound into the ground). We

need to thank Norm, who despite all our insinuations is not gay, and Martin for editing the column and dealing with our little practical jokes (like using the word f-k 52 times in one column). Thanks be to Radiohead who were always playing in the stereo as we conjured our genius. And to all of our loyal readers, we’ve been sent to issue all you people here a warning: The next crop of Monday, Monday potentials isn’t that good. There weren’t many applicants, and those who did have the courage to try to follow us up didn’t really ring anybody’s bell. For those of you who are now worried—no, RED SONJA did not reapply.

So we guess all that’s left for everyone is exams and graduation. We hope all of the seniors this year enjoy Elizabeth Dole as ain’t their honorary speaker, anything more inspiring for you than someone who dropped out of the presidential race before the first primary was even held. Of course we all know she ran out of money. Such a wonderful message really; if you aren’t rich, it’s going to be too hard and you might as well give up now. All you students on financial aid should leam from her example. But maybe we’re being toe hard on her. She did try some creative ways of raising money. However, Bot Dole’s noble sacrifice of revealing his erec tile dysfunction to the American publit failed to solicit enough pity money to keep her campaign afloat. All of this makes uf

wonder about her Tri-Delt affiliation. Aftei all, when was the last time you saw a poo; Tri-Delt who wasn’t getting any? Andrew Exnicios is a Pratt junior while Patrick Bardill is a Trinity junior. They are bothflying ever so high above the mucky muck right about now.

Now introducing: THREE BLIND MICE Monday, Monday THREE BLIND MICE Thank goodness for small favors—when we return to campus next August, we won’t be summoned from slumber by the soothing sounds of sledgehammers until after 7 a.m. How remarkably considerate. With this kind of administrative foresight, some recent graduates might find themselves relocated to Durham next fall as Andersen Consulting is called in to mediate between the whining student contingent and the baffled construction information bureaucracy. Those generous folks over at the Residential Program Review sure do know how to give Bill Burig a big fat ulcer. Not like he doesn’t have one already. Anyway, in the recent Construction Impact e-mail, they even promised that the use of loud machinery would be restricted until after 8 a.m. The way we see it, the Big Dig is a sadistic scheme contrived to boost attendance in 9:10 classes. Somehow, we think it might take more than that to drag the true slacker out of bed. If you live in Edens Quadrangle, you still might have to allow some extra time to wind your way through the labyrinthine fencing intended to protect Duke students from aggressive construction workers. Perhaps you were daunted by the extreme length of the e-mail and didn’t read as far as the “Safety” section. It is, however, worth the scroll. The

'THESES from page 5 plans on continuing her studies in English. Some students, however, simply enjoy the research aspect. “Many ofthem do because it’s a culmination of their study, which includes a significant research com-

ponent,” Grunwald said. Faculty also noted that there is a large number of students who do independent studies, which also conclude with a large body of research and writing work but are not technically “honors.” That difference probably stems from the stringent grade point average requirement associated with the honors label. “We are continually encouraging our students to consider independent studies that integrate research and writing,” said Gary Ybarra, director of undergraduate studies for electrical and computer engineering. “There are plenty of students who do independent studies but do not do graduation with distinction.” Writing a senior thesis also requires plenty of time, which may turn off some students to the task. For Gonzales, however, the time commitment was not a factor, as she has already been involved in research on Shakespeare this year with English professor Joseph Porter. Next year, she is considering researching the play Othello. “You’re usually involved in classes where you’re writing and researching on topics you’re given,” she said. “This was a chance to research and write on something I was interested in.” Though Gonzales has a fairly solid idea of what she wants to work on next year, Baucom said not every student needs to have a complete picture of their project. ‘They don’t have to know exactly what they want to say, but they have to have a general idea of the general territory and the questions they want to ask,” he said. Often, after a student is accepted into the honors program, she must go through rigorous questioning about the proposal from the faculty. Bums initially wanted to compare ethnic conflicts in various regions on the world, using statistical data. However, the department rejected his proposals because they were too broad, he said. Finally, he hit upon a feasible project idea—but had only eight weeks to complete it. T was more worried about the defense than getting it done,” Bums said. ‘That seems intimidating, but it wasn't that bad.” Probably the most difficult part about writing a thesis, Bums added, is letting go—much like a parent with a child. “So much of the research you do, you won’t actually write about,” he said, explaining that he cut 20 pages during a revision. ‘That's really a painful process.”

ommendation that organizations provide plastic

cups at large outdoor events to prevent broken glass. The section also propose that resident advisers be more responsible about reporting unruly events to Campus Police. Among the more substantive changes, the committee highlighted five areas that members agreed need

to be addressed. According to the document, all on-campus social venues should be free to each student group at least twice a semester, the University should examine all nonresidential space that can be used for social programming and publicity mentioning alcohol should be banned on East Campus. Additionally, pre-event meetings should be required for all events involving more than 500 people and a new section of the promoter policy should be created to address activities other than bands and major attractions. “My hope is that the ongoing work on these issues results in detailed, concrete suggestions for change.../’Assistant Dean of University Life Melinda Bolger Roper, the committee’s chair, wrote in an email. “Some of these issues have long been identified as problematic. However, I feel that we have some momentum for change right now that we’ve not had as strongly in the past.” The most controversial issues—topics that did not gamer the committee’s consensus—will be open for student discussion this fall. Many student leaders have already voiced some of their concerns about these potential changes. French said having to register all events would be no more than a “hassle,” but she predicted a debate around enforcing occupancy limits for commons rooms—the location of 40 percent of 213 registered events in fall 1999, according to the Event Advising Center. “People are just really worried thatthe social face really, really change,” French said, pointing to concerns that enforcement would require student groups to limit access to their parties. “That’s not what we want. That’s not why we came to Duke. People are trying to be inclusive, and this is directly contradictory.” Pratt senior Mike Kamas, a member of Sigma Chi fraternity, said he understood administrative concerns about fire safety in commons rooms, but noted that any change in policy would have to be accompanied by improving social space.

“As a member of a fraternity, the last thing I want to do is rent room in the Bryan Center to have a party...he said, adding that he has been pleased with officials’ responsiveness to student feedback. Banning the use of University funds for buying alcohol—a step that would most severely affect dormitories and quadrangles—will be another controversial issue, as some students argue that dependence on “passing the hat” would hinder large-scale, studentplanned events. EAC statistics show that 57 percent of quad and outdoor events in fall 1999 involved alcohol; 21 percent of all registered events were held in quads or other outdoor venues. The recommendations acknowledge student concerns with the possible change. “Some quads do weekly or monthly kegs as their primary means of socialization,” the report reads. ‘ln the same way that this would hurt quad functions, it would also hurt class, house and greek functions. Often the draw for these events is that kegs are present.” Still, some students agreed that using University money for alcohol sends a contradictory message to students. “To have eveiyone’s money... taken for the general body is effectively having minors pay for alcohol for people 21 and over,” said Trinity junior Rob Leonard, the newly elected vice president of Campus Council. The University’s security policy—long considered unfair, especially by nonresidential minority organizations—was addressed both in the committee’s suggestions and in an attached letter from French and eight other students. In addition to pointing out the inconsistency in requiring some groups to have security while not requiring it of other groups, the students discussed their other philosophical concern. “While we realize the social space tension affects all students, we are painfully aware of the costs that are associated with being a group that has no alumni contribution history, no prime real estate and no numerical presence on campus...,” they wrote. “We want to make the University aware ofthe psychological implications of having so many uniformed police officers at parties that are sponsored by minority groups. Students leave with the perceived innuendo of ‘you need more police.”’ Bolger Roper stressed that everyone agreed that the security policy needed to be reformed, but had not come up with specific plans yet. “This item requires further discussion so that we, students and administrators, can together... identify ideas to present to the upper administration,” she said.

NCAA will allow basketball players to start classes early quarterly meeting. “We are sending a clear message that there are going to

be changes,” Spanier said. “Those must be substantive changes that return the recruiting and decision making process to athletes, to parents, to high school coaches and to university coaches and administrators,” he added. Another change would limit initial scholarships to no more than five in one year and eight over two years. After last year’s mass exodus of players, Duke brought in six new scholarship players. “You’re probably better off having the flexibility to deal with the changes in the program,” Kennedy said.

Son honors father with S7M contribution to Pratt School GARDNER from page 3

Nick Gardner graduated from the School of Engineering in 1945, and taught there for 10 years starting in 1953. During his tenure, he led engineering design for the Bryan Center, the Nello Teer Engineering Library and parts of the Center for Living and Medical Center. The new programs fall in line with the school’s strategic plan, which calls for a 20-faculty-member expansion and several new building projects to support them. “Engineers are designers and builders,” Johnson said in a statement. ‘The Gardner name has long been associated with the construction destined to endure. We are truly grateful to Nick

Gardner for his lasting contributions to the University and the school, and to his son for his vision during a crucial time of growth and opportunity for engineering education at Duke.” The younger Gardner made his fortune as the founder and chief executive officer of OnTarget Inc., a worldwide professional services firm recently acquired by Siebel Systems, Inc. He is now vice president of Siebel and general manager of OnTarget. T just hope they let Kristina Johnson fulfill her vision,” the younger Gardner said. “She seems to be focusing on a couple of areas that very much intrigue me, with optical engineering and biomedical engineering.”

“We never could have foreseen what happened last year. Elton [Brand], sure. But Corey Maggette?” The board also decided to allow men’s and women’s basketball recruits to receive scholarships to attend classes in summer school before their first semester in college ifthey enroll in at least six hours of courses. The NCAA said it will provide $3 million per year to provide up to 50 percent of an institution’s cost for the program. The five-year pilot program will be assessed when it expires.

Kennedy said Duke and other schools would likely take advantage of the new program, partly for academic reasons

The board also approved the formation of a Division I basketball issues committee, which will be asked to design a new approach to summer recruiting effective in 2002. Many coaches, including Mike Krzyzewski, have been advocating for such a committee, because the problems facing the sport are so unique. The proposals were among nine passed two weeks ago by the Division I Management Council and forwarded to the board for consideration at its

About 2,000 nurses Requirements bring bruises, legal woes may vote in June UNION VOTE from page I names, hinting at a closely contested vote. If the nurses elect to join a union, DUHS will have to bargain with the nurses’ union in good faith. If the nurses elect not to join a union, they cannot attempt to unionize for a full year. Israel said the hospital’s position is, and has always been, that everyone should be informed and should vote. “An ideal situation would be to have a 100 percent turnout,” he said. “It’s everybody’s responsibility to vote and understand what they’re voting for or against.” Israel explained that although North Carolina is a right-to-work state, those whose jobs are covered by a bargaining agreement will also be affected. “Anyone who could potentially be covered by the collective bargaining process as a result of an election should have a right to vote in that election,” said Israel. “[This agreement] does that.” Connie Donahue, a nurse at Duke Hospital, expressed a common sentiment among union supporters. “I love the hospital and my work, but on some nights, the nurse to patient ratio reaches one to eight,” she said, reiterating that unionization is about patients, not money. Many nurses feel that a normal nurse-to-patient ratio is one to three, a level that many say existed at the hospital five years ago. But Israel also reiterated that collective bargaining will not address the vast majority of concerns he hears from the nurses. “We are experiencing the same problems [other health care institutions are having], and regardless of how this comes out we’ll have to work directly with our front-line staff to re-

solve them,” he said. The movement to unionize started in August 1999 when a past lUOE president was treated at Duke Hospital. Hearing the nurses talk about their working conditions, he suggested the possibility of forming or joining a union. Spread mostly by word of mouth and night-time meetings at local hotels, the movement has now received the support of roughly 1,000 nurses, joined under the banner of NUPA—Nurses United for Patient Advocacy. lUOE currently has 400,000 members across the nation and Canada. “We’re making history here,” said one nurse, referring to the fact that North Carolina has never had a nurses’ union at a private hospital.

� REQUIREMENTS from page 1 many undergraduates and alumni admitted completing this task several times just for fun. “That was easy—no one’s going to stop you,” said David Pryluck, Trinity ’99. “It happens more out of convenience than anything else. Sometimes its easier to go around the other way and then you find yourself going all of the way around.” Although driving around the circle backwards is comparatively benign to some of the other more risque tasks, there is the potential to be charged with careless and reckless driving. “I can’t recall giving someone a citation for that in the recent past, but it is subject to happen if an officer observes such actions,” said Maj. Robert Dean of the Duke University Police Department. Tunneling

Accessing the tunnels that run under both campuses became a four-year quest for Cory Rayburn, Trinity ’9B. “Over the course of four years, we were always on the lookout for ways to get into the tunnels and it would never work,” he said. “We always had these visions that if we did get into the tunnels under Main West, there would be these rats the size of dogs running around,” he said. Students who have been in the tunnels gave less exciting reports, like finding large stacks of plates

under the Marketplace. Several students said they’ve accessed the tunnels through entrances near the loading dock behind the Hideaway and just beyond Trinity Cafe in the East Campus Student Union. Trinity senior Christine Paczkowski and Trinity sophomore C.J. Walsh both said there are doors that lead to the tunnels at the end of the halls on East Campus main quad dorms, like Wilson. Kacie Wallace, associate dean for judicial affairs, said there is potentially dangerous high voltage equipment down there. “We did have someone who locked themselves in the tunnel a couple years ago and had to call the police to come let him out,” said Wallace. Sex in the Stacks “Perkins is pretty tough because when you walk in there smelling ofbooze at 1 a.m. carrying no backpack, people know you’re doing something really nefarious,” said Trinity senior Sidney Simms, a recent “unofficial graduate.”

Huber said that although it’s hard to find a good spot, the fourth floors stacks are usually the most secluded. “Whatever books are there aren’t commonly used,” he said. Several alumni reported that “sex requirements” are not long standing traditions. “I do not recall the ‘sex in the stacks’ requirement being talked about until 10 or so years ago,” said Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs Sue Wasiolek, Trinity ’76. She added that she did not complete the requirements herself. Sex

in the

Gardens

“When you walk around the gardens at night you hear noises,” said Trinity sophomore Helen Zayac. “It’s funny. You know what’s going on.” While sneaking into the gardens at night may provide the most cover, a Trinity alumna who wished to remain anonymous had other advice. “Although this would seem the most logical thing to do, I would not attempt the Gardens during nighttime,” she said. “It seems a little dangerous. Daytime is a little more risky as far as getting caught, but I have heard it is a lot safer.”

Wallace confirmed that students have been subject to disciplinary actions for indecent exposure in both the library and the gardens. Doming

“I got bruised having sex in the stacks, dirty having sex in the gardens, and asbestos poisoning from tunneling,” said a Trinity senior who wishes to remain anonymous. “I guess doming was the most fun—there's nothing more exhilarating than seeing East Campus stretched out below you.” Doming is the unofficial requirement that presents the greatest physical challenge, and also poses

the greatest risk. According to those who have done it, accessing the dome from Pegram is relatively easy compared to actually scaling the dome. “My friend was a monkey and could climb anything; he then helped pull me up,” said Paczkowski. “There was a rope at the highest part, to actually get up to the dome.” When caught “doming,” students can be with charged with trespassing, Dean said. “Some of the recent ‘Baldwin’ folks have refused to come down and then ran from police once they did come down. I believe those people lost their housing licenses,” said Wallace.

� Men’s lax squeaks past Penn State 6-5 Duke’s offense struggled against No. 19 Penn State, but the Blue Devil defense held the Nittany Lions to just five goals on 27 shots Friday in State College, Pa, Jared Frood scored two goals and had an assist, while fellow senior T.J. Durnan had two assists. Duke’s offense has scored no more than seven goals in each of the last three games.

Rowing finishes last at ACC Championships >

The rowing team finished in fourth place at the first-ever ACC Championships Saturday in Charlottesville. The host Cavaliers won the title with 40 points, while Duke scored 11. In the petite finals against UNC, Duke won the second varsity four, but lost the three remaining races. Katie Lakin was the lone Duke rower to earn All-ACC honors.

� Duke competes at Penn Relays The track and field squad set two school records this weekend at the Penn Relays in Philadelphia. The women’s distance medley relay shattered the old record (set in 1998) of 11:32.88 with an 11:11.81 performance, good for seventh place. The women’s 4x400meter relay team finished in third with a Duke-record 3:42.71. The men’s DMR finished 10th and Sheela Agrawal placed 10th in the 3,000 meters to round out Duke’s other top-10 performances.

� Each tennis team lands 3 on All-ACC squads Six Blue Devils were named to the All-ACC tennis teams this weekend. On the women’s side, Megan Miller, Kathy Sell and Erica Biro were all selected. It marks the 14th straight year Duke has received three or more selections since the ACC began honoring women’s tennis players in 1987. On the men’s side, Doug Root, Ramsey Smith and Andres Pedroso were selected. Root, who was 2-4 against ACC toes, became just the eighth player in conference history to be named All-ACC four straight years.

Blue Devils swept by UNC, set record for losses By NEAL MORGAN The Chronicle

One of the worst Duke baseball seasons ever officially became the worst Duke baseball season this weekend. The Blue Devils (14-36, 4-17 in the ACC) were swept in a three-game series against No. 18 North Carolina (39-11,11-10) at historic Jack Coombs Field, and with the three defeats, Duke set a school record for most losses in a season. “I realize that,” first-year coach Bill Hillier told The Herald-Sun ofDurham. ‘That is [former coachl Steve Traylor’s problem. That is not my problem. I didn’t recruit these guys. I wasn’t expected to win [this season]. If this was a good program, Steve Traylor would still be here.” The Blue Devils lost Game 1 Thursday 16-1, but after rain canceled Friday’s contest, Duke played better in Saturday’s doubleheader, dropping the first game 5-3 in 10 innings and the second game 10-6.

has been a drugging are correct— Red Elian has a bad heroin habit and while he was in Miami, he was getting just enough methadone to keep him from hallucinating that spiders were covering his body. This covert operation was supposed to be over months ago, as the addict in Red Elian has become more than a little cranky. (How did he receive the methadone? It came in his sodas at Sea World, his ice creams at DisneyWorld, when he saw his “grandmothers,” when he stayed at that nun’s house and on really desperate occasions, from members of the leftist media. One thing Castro wants is an end to the embargo. Soon, Red Elian, who has some visiting Cuban playmates, will begin to show us their malnourished bodies and make speeches about how much the embargo harms the children—because Americans are always so interested in the welfare of “the children.” (These children are being drugged to keep them from noticing that Red Elian is not a child, which would probably scare them to death. Their traveling companions are more communist agents, naturally.) Then, while Congress bickers over that, he’ll give the go-ahead for the assassination and move into the White House. On the other hand, the assassination could happen today, in honor ofMay Day. Comrades! Join me in saluting the

The slavery known as communism The Elian Gonzalez case is about freedom, not reuniting father and son

JPJSThe Voice 0 of Reason :>

(

■

Alex Epstein

On Saturday, April 22, the Justice Department sent armed agents to break into Lazaro Gonzalez’s home and seize six-year-old Elian Gonzalez. Members of the press and government officials declared almost unanimously that the government was acting in the best interests of the child, doing whatever it took to deliver him to his father. Nothing could be further from the truth. The father, Juan Miguel Gonzalez, has stated unequivocally that he will take Elian back to Cuba if he receives custody of him. Liberals and “familyvalues” conservatives have argued that although Cuba might have its problems, the child needs to be with his father, above all else. The loss of the sacred bond that exists between father and son is a fate far worse than life in Cuba, we are told. If Juan Gonzalez was a known child abuser, then President Bill Clinton

would not call for a reunion of father and son. If Juan Miguel shackled his son to a wall and locked him in a room for weeks on end, nobody would say, “What’s important is that he’s with his father.” In such instances, the government properly separates parent and child, recognizing that the parent’s rights end where the individual rights of the child begin. The parent has no right to physically harm the child, through beating, enslavement or any

government. In theory and in practice,

this means that the government and its dictator are free to dispose of its citizens at whim. This includes forcing a child to toil in sugar fields on the verge of starvation, brainwashing him with propaganda and other means of breaking the child’s body and spirit employed by the Cuban government. There is a term for an individual who is the legal property of another person or a government. He is called a slave.

Taking a child to a totalitarian dictatorship like Cuba when one has the option of leaving him in America constitutes child abuse. ,

other means. Taking a child to a totalitarian dictatorship like Cuba when one has the option of leaving him in America, constitutes child abuse. Life in Cuba is demonstrably harmful to human existence. As a commu-

nist, totalitarian dictatorship, the Cuban government asserts ownership over its citizens. “He is a possession of the Cuban government,” said Luis Fernandez, a spokesperson for the Cuban

The difference between America and Cuba is the difference between freedom and slavery. It is not, as supporters of Elian’s move to Cuba hold, a minor issue of material prosperity. In America, Elian would be free to pursue his dreams and make of his life whatever he chose. In America, Elian could be happy. In Cuba, Elian’s fate would be controlled by the whims of Castro and the Cuban government. He

would live in a continuous state of fear and hopelessness. Fear, because of the knowledge that everything he values—his life, friends, family and possessions—can be taken away from him at the government’s whim, as they have been for thousands of others. Hopelessness, because he cannot do anything to improve his future outlook. If he speaks out against the government, he will likely be the latest person sent to a government prison, never to be heard from again. He cannot leave—his government forbids it. His father’s presence is no consolation—his father can only watch his son die a slow, painful death. Elian’s mother knew firsthand that life under slavery is no life at all, which is why she fled Cuba to go to the land of the free. Whatever Juan Miguel’s reasons for wanting to bring his child to Cuba, for the American government to allow this would be to sanction child abuse. The government should act in Elian’s real best interests, and prevent his father from delivering him into the slavery his mother so valiantly rescued him from.

Although I believe every stage of your life should be the best, college is such a unique opportunity that it must be cherished. Two years ago at this time of year my graduation from Wake Forest was fast approaching. I was pleased with all four years, but senior year was my real success. “The sun shines brighter when you’re a senior” was my motto and creed. Everyday I woke up in a place I loved, smiled at the sun and glowed. Senior year was amazing. The key to my incredible senior year was sitting down on my 21st birthday and deciding what was really important. I knew I wanted to finish up strong and the key was living a stressfree senior year. I was all over the place my freshman year. I was either in class, at meetings or hanging out in the all-girls freshman dormitory. I was your basic freshman spread way too thin between too many positions, obligations and people. Sophomore year was much of the same. By junior year, I decided to pull out of

some commitments and live with guys I lived with freshman year, but I often felt neglected in the pursuit of popularity and the fleeting affection of flighty freshman females. I had been spending too much time, effort and energy in relationships that were not productive and had no potential to be long-term or meaningful. My primary problem was a crush/friendship that started as soon as I got to campus and showed little indication of slowing down during my junior year. It was your typical “falling for a friend” scenario that left me tired, spent and emotional drained

with a birthday greeting. We talked for well over an hour, and things became clear to me. I had been denying Julie the space in my heart reserved for a crush/friendship that I was not as strong as I wanted it to be after three years. Julie was real. I needed her friendship. That simple phone call also made me realize that my senior year was not only the end of my college days, but also the beginning of the rest of my life. At 11:03 p.m. on May 2, 1997, I began to reexamine my life. College was no longer living for the moment. College was about living for the future.

it was necessary. I became closer to my boys and Julie took over as my ace female and closest friend. Several ladies who were accustomed to especially friendly treatment now received the occasional wave on the quad. All this so I could spend more time

with the people who would be there for me down the road. The hardest thing to do was end my crush. Unfortunately, it came down to a scathing e-mail and ignoring her every time I saw her. Even her smile may have damaged the emotional frailty of the stress-free utopia I set up. As for all those friends, Julie is graduating in two weeks and I’m proud.

Whispers from the East Laila EEHaddad The old woman typified 51 years of the Palestinian plight. Wrinkles ran deep into her face, each telling the tale of a different Palestinian struggle. Despite all of this she glowed, and she had a certain girlish coyness about her. She seemed to symbolize the perseverance of an entire generation of dispossessed Palestinians. “Driver, please tell me... have you heard of village of Masmiah? Does it still exist?” The driver of the seven-passenger taxi, which shuttled passengers back and forth between Gaza’s Erez border crossing into Israel and parts of East Jerusalem, looked back, amused. “Masmiah? That’s one of the 1948 Palestinian villages,” said the man, referring to the several hundred villages that were completely destroyed when Palestinian residents were forced to flee following the Israeli “War of Independence” in 1948. “It’s Israeli territory now. Why do you ask?” “Have we passed it yet? Driver would you please stop near Masmiah... that is where I was born, raised and married until we were forced out in 1948. This is the first time I have been granted a request for a travel permit to leave Gaza.” The old refugee woman, like many others, had fled her village to arrive to the region that would come to be known as

woman pleaded. “No problem,” replied the driver. I was in awe at what was transpiring before me. I had heard countless stories of the Palestinian refugees—of the hundreds of thou-

sands of families forced out oftheir homes out of fear ofthe Israeli Hagana and Irgun terrorist forces, of how most of the refugees thought they could return to their homes when things calmed down, of how they ended up in “temporary” refugee camps for 51 years and counting and how almost all of their homes either confiscated or destroyed. But never before had a survivor guided me through the events. ‘There you see, that was my house right there. I still have the key. I used to pick dates from those two palm tree there! Do you see them? They’re still standing after all these years.” “That’s no home of yours,” replied the driver, “Now it’s an Israeli military rest stop.” A sigh. A tear. An aura of anguish. “I planted that tree,” said the woman. This episode of “Masmiah and the

refugee woman” highlights an increasingly significant and critical issue in the context of the Palestinian problem. As the final status talks between Palestinians and Israelis near, the status of the Palestinian refugees and their right of return remains in question. A deadline

of September has been set for the final status agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, which will deal with some of the most contentious issues.

Palestinians have passed through several waves of exile and expulsion since 1948. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East has estimated that they number 3.6 million, not including unregistered and “displaced” persons. The refugees, many of whom are now second and third generation, are concentrated in five locations where UNRWA set up camps that developed into shanty towns over the years: the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. The Palestinian refugee’s right ofreturn is re-affirmed by United Nations resolutions. Those who choose not to return should theoretically be given the alternative of compensation. Unfortunately, legal documents have come to mean little in the face of realpolitik. The Palestinian refugee of today may no longer live in a camp, but he is faced with an equal if not greater problem. He holds a flimsy travel document usually issued by the host government under which he resides, but is often denied access to the same governmental facilities—including health care and education—and is limited in terms of the profession he can enter. Politically, the refugee has no right of return to Palestine as far as the Israeli government is concerned. To them, absorption into a “monolithic” Arab world is the solution. On the other hand, any individual who can prove his or her Jewish heritage through a maternal bloodline, despite their nationality or state or origin, has an

number of Russian Jews that immigrated to Israel in 1990 is equivalent to the Palestinian refugee communities in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon combined. The irony of these realities seems to have escaped the international community. Numerous arguments have been made in opposition to the right of return, including the logistical problems with its implementation. Studies by demographers such as Salman Abu Sitta have shown that there is ample room to fit all those refugees who choose to return instead of being compensated, especially if illegal Israeli settlements are dismantled. His work has demonstrated that the greater part of Palestinian property from which Palestinians were expelled in 1948 remains empty and could accommodate the return of refugees, contrary to Israeli claims. Unfortunately, the asymmetry of power between Israel and the Palestinian National Authority dictates a very different political reality. As Robert Fiske, Middle East correspondent for the British Impendent, said at a recent conference, “Oslo has legally reduced the legitimate right of return for Palestinian refugees to a request.” One must wonder how long a peace accord that not only skirts the most important of issues, but is also full of obfuscations and ambiguities, can last. In light of the last several years since Oslo’s implementation, the answer has become painfully clear: Peace cannot endure without the legitimate and unconditional right of return and restitution for Palestinian refugees.

Investing in a candidate Considering recent Supreme Court decisions, perhaps the nightmare envisioned in this column could happen jpfe. Off the Record and cJ on the QT Martin Barna Wow, last week opened a stunning chapter in the saga of campaign finance reform, didn’t it? What happened is pretty amazing, but in case you missed it, have no fear, The Chronicle has it covered. Last week, the Supreme Court handed down a landmark decision that will greatly change how this and all future political campaigns are financed. Voting five to four, the court declared that bribery is legal. Ruling in Billet v. United States— where Congressman Jimmy Bob Billet, (D-Fla) had been found guilty of taking a bribe—the Court declared that bribery is merely the financial expression of political speech and, therefore, protected by the Constitution. Writing for the majority, Justice Antonin Scalia reaffirmed the Court’s holding that “campaign contributions are free speech and they cannot and should not be limited in accordance with the First Amendment.” However, in a bold move to expand

freedom ofspeech, the court ruled that any restriction on the use of money to influence government officials is unconstitutional. Scalia continued, “Since the only

difference between a campaign contribution and a bribe is the fact that one is disclosed and the other is not, the offering and accepting of undisclosed money for specific government action is also legal, since the choice to disclose who gave you an enormous sum of money is also a matter of free speech. Private speech and public speech deserve equal protection under the law.”

Politicians everywhere hailed the court’s decision as wise and long overdue. However, Senator John McCain, a longtime advocate of campaign finance

lawed slavery, went too far. The majority noted, “Forced slavery is clearly unconstitutional because one party is forced into a contract, and thus the contract is not valid. However, when one party freely sells him or her self to another then the contract has been freely joined and it is protected by the Constitution.” George W. Bush immediately declared that he had formed a corporation, W. Inc., which owns 100 percent of George W. Bush, a subsidiary. Major stockholders of W., Inc. include the NRA, major oil companies, General

The majority declared that when a bribe is accepted, a contractual agreement has been formed. Contracts are protected by the Constitution, the court argued. Moreover, slavery is a form of a contract since ownership of one person by another is but the expression of a contractual agreement between two parties. The court ruled that the 13th Amendment, which out-

Motors, Bible publishers and the Confederate flagmakers association. Bush is the CEO. Asked why he retained 10 percent of the stock for mutual fund holders, Bush declared, “I am a uniter, not a divider. This way everyone can own a piece of George W. Bush. Yes, I am a slave, but I am slave to the American people.” Vice President A1 Gore appeared to be caught off guard by the Court’s ruling. Gore’s attempt to straddle the fence and declare himself an indentured servant rather than an outright

slave seems to have backfired. “Once again the vice president’s attempt to have it both ways is in evidence,” com-

mented ethicist William Bennett. “We all know that Jesus Christ, the only one who bridged the Judeo-Christian gap, was a capitalist, which is why he banished the money lenders from the Temple. Incorporating and selling oneself is within the framework of Western values. Liberals like Gore just don’t get it,” Bennett added. Later in the week Gore declared that he would form a holding company that would have total control of Albert Gore, but stockholders could only hold title to the stock for seven years before having to sell it. Internet companies expressed an initial interest in Gore, Inc., which is expected to trade on the

NASDAQ.

Also, in a related story several Buddhist nuns declared that Gore, Inc. cannot claim control of Albert Gore because they purchased him in 1996. A lengthy court battle over the ownership ofthe vice president is expected. W. Inc. initially traded on the New York Stock Exchange at $65 a share, but fell back to $43 in heavy trading. Gore, Inc. is expected to open this week with an IPO value of $43 a share. In any event, declines will definitely outpace gains.

Letters

to the editor

Duke Bar Association should Perhaps DSG’s not take a side on death penalty

This letter is in response to Kevin Paul’s letter in the April 25 edition of The Chronicle. Personally, I am indifferent to the practice of capital punishment. I do not believe it serves as an effective deterrent, but it obviously fulfills the human desire for revenge. Both are, in iny opinion, equally valid justifications for the criminal justice system as a whole. Most importantly, people better informed and generally smarter than I—the Supreme Court—believe that capital punishment is a just system. I will abide by their logic. Despite my indifference to capital punishment, I strongly oppose the referendum on completely separate grounds. I object to the fact that the vote took place at all. Nobody who knows me can accuse me of being apolitical, but I do not think it is the place of an educational institution to advocate positions on matters of great public debate. Nor do I think that a measure that barely 100 students out of over 650 supported can qualify as a sense of the student body. I am happy to see that activists such as Paul are so eager to emulate the American Bar Association—an organization that chose renowned legal scholar Jane Fonda to be its .keynote speaker at last year’s national convention. However, the Duke Bar Association is not the proper organ to use. The DBA is a representative organ in which both membership and dues payments are compulsory. The DBA should be more concerned with solving real problems—such as adding parking for law school students and faculty—than holding a vote on capital punishment or any other issue unrelated to life in the law school. Despite what Paul might want to think, the dubiously legitimate vote (with its several reports of fraud) does not represent the “opinion” of the law school and is misleading to outsiders if it is so presented. This vote shows only two things: Paul has some ability as an organizer and the DBA is adept at holding a referendum without telling anyone about it. If Paul wants to take a stand, there are ample student organizations in the law school into "which he should channel his energies. He should not drag the rest of us with him.

same-sex unions

After hearing about Duke Student Government’s proposal regarding homosexual unions in the Chapel, I wonder if we are going far enough. Surely this is a bold step, but I don’t think we should stop there, because the truth is that our country’s laws don’t only discriminate against homosexuals, but also people of

other orientations. For instance, it is not legal to marry more than one person, even though there are many people who would like to do so. For some, it may even be part of their religious expression. Why are we discriminating against these people? Is it wrong to want three wives or four husbands? Why should marriage just be between two people? If two men and three women want to get married into one big happy family, why should they be excluded from the joys that are only allowed “straights” and couples? I could go even further. Not only is it arbitrary to define marriage as involving two people—just as it is being between one man and one woman—but it is just

resolution should go farther

as arbitrary to define it as involving only adults. Our laws are extremely harsh on those men who find children attractive, and it is time we stop punishing adults for their orientation and allow them to marry and have rewarding relationships with “minors.” The Supreme Court of Vermont recently said that to deny homosexuals the right to marry is to deny them their humanity. As decent human beings, we should extend this principle to all people—whether they be old, young, heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual or polysexual. If my views seem extreme, remember that several decades ago homosexual marriage was unthinkable. Now society—except for a small group of radical fundamentalists—is used to the idea of gay marriages, and one day society will put aside its hate and realize that all other orientations are just as valid. We need to stop judging and persecuting people just because of who or what they want to marry.

Comic about housing office should not be taken lightly This letter is in response to a not-so-funny comic strip in The Chronicle entitled “Through the Looking Glass.” OK Dan Kahler, weTe at Duke. We are getting a world-class education at one of the greatest institutions of higher learning in the world. We should be intelligent and upwardly mobile people, ready to lead society into the next century. So, I ask, why can’t I tell by reading your comic? In fact, it is a display of just how sadly ignorant and insensitive some Duke students can be. Simply because you’ve had a few run-ins with the housing department—if, say, they wouldn’t store your fridge so the freon would explode and destroy your dorm, or they cleaned up after the fraternity party you went to, or they supplied your bathroom with toilet paper and cleaned your vomit offthe floor—is that why you are so upset? Well, if this is the case, I’m sorry. I apologize on behalf of the entire staff of Duke University Housing Management for making your Duke residential experience much easier. And Dan, one more thing—my IQ is very high, and so are those of my very respectable coworkers. Now laugh at that. IZODUWA EBOSE The writer works in the
