THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DES MOINES, lowa —John Kerry and John Edwards rode llth-hour surges to a one-two finish in lowa’s kickoff presidential caucuses Monday, dealing a stunning blow to favorite Howard Dean. Kerry’s comeback blew the nomination fight wide open, setting the stage for a free-for-all in New Hampshire’s follow-up primary. Dean finished third, stripped of his front-runner’s mantle and humbled—“We’re still alive,” he said. Rep. Dick Gephardt finished a weak fourth and planned to end his 33-year political career by pulling out of the race Tuesday. His campaign given up for dead just weeks ago, Kerry predicted another comeback in New Hampshire’s Jan. 27 primary. “As I’ve said in New Hampshire and here, I’m a fighter,” the four-term Massachusetts senator told The Associated Press. “I’ve come from behind before and I’m going to take the same fight that I’ve been making here to New Hampshire.” Edwards, 50, also claimed momentum ‘This campaign, this cause, this movement is about bringing real change to America,” the North Carolina senator told supporters. “You and I can build an America and an image of America that we will be proud of.” Just two weeks ago, before the lowa race turned testy and tumultuous, Dean and Gephardt sat atop the field in lowa, with SEE KERRY ON PAGE 10

Charles Ogletree, litigator and Jesse Climenko Professor of Law at Harvard University, was the featured speaker at an open dialogue at the Law School and at the annual Sunday Chapel service commemorating Martin Luther King, Jr. The dialogue, entided “Assessing the dream: Where are we now?” included a speech by Ogletree and an ensuing question and answer period. In describing the status of race relations in America, Ogletree took a middle-of-the-road stance: “We’ve come a long way and we have a long way to go,” he said. However, he asserted that race issues have long played a role in society, far beyond what most people recognize. ‘Whatever the situation, race has always been a divisive issue,” Ogletree said, noting at one point that even the audience was largely separated by race. Ogletree discussed what he called “the history and reality” of race-related issues in America. He spoke about black communities in the 1920s—products of segregation. During that period, he said, blacks experienced solid growth in local economies and businesses, including movie theaters, newspapers and hotels. A dollar would change hands 35 times before it left circulation in those communities, but today it hardly

Bush prepares for State of Union by

Scott Lindlaw

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

President WASHINGTON George W. Bush put the finishing touches Monday on a State of the Union speech that calls for modest expansions of voter-friendly programs while telling Congress to curb spending in the face of record-breaking budget deficits. Between rehearsals for the Tuesday address he told reporters: “I’m almost finished, in case you’re interested. A bespectacled Bush ran through the speech, editing pen in hand, in the Family Theater of the White House. He read from a TelePrompTer to a small “

group of aides, including staff secretary Brett Kavanaugh and communications chief Dan Bartlett. Bush seemed relaxed as he passed reporters en route to a brief appearance before the wives of black clergy members. He said with a laugh that the number of drafts had not reached the

“triple digits.” The president left the State Room appearance as his wife sat down for

lunch with the spouses, joking that he

hadn’t been invited. In fact, he returned to more rehearsals of a speech that will set his elecdon-year agenda. Bush will open his address with remarks on national security, then move

into domestic priorities, contrary to past practice, aides say. He will urge Americans to back him on the war on terrorism, arguing that the path he has chosen, including invading Iraq, is the right one. Bush’s message—that his top responsibility is to protect Americans comes at a time when Americans are split on his leadership. In a CBS-New York Times poll earlier this month, people were about equally divided over his handling offoreign policy. But less than half said the American death toll in Iraq, which has climbed past 500 amid continuing violence, was worth it. —

BAGHDAD, Iraq As many as 100,000 Iraqis marched peacefully through the center of Baghdad Monday in a show of support for a revered Shiite cleric opposing the Bush administration’s plans for the transfer of sovereignty. The march was a powerful display of solidarity behind the cleric, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Husseini al-Sistani, at a time when leaders of the Shiites, who account for more than 60 percent of the population, are beginning to exercise their enormous political influence over American policy here. Almost as many people attended the protest as there are American soldiers in Iraq.

The demonstration sent an unmistakable message to senior American and Iraqi officials, who were to meet at the United Nations later in the day to discuss the resistance with officials there the American plan to transfer power through indirect, caucus-style elections. Demands from al-Sistani for direct elections of a transitional assembly before the turnover of power on June 30 have forced American officials to turn to the United Nations in an effort to legitimize their proposal. A representative of the ayatollah said in an interview that the cleric still insisted on direct elections and wanted the United Nations to monitor the process. What role the United Nations will play is unclear, especially given the tenuous security situation in Iraq.

Educating the new president by

Although he must wait until July 1 to assume the reins

of the University, President-elect Richard Brodhead has

already commenced his six-month crash course on the

“What MartinLuther King was talking about in the last few years... he wasn’t talking about where to sit on the bus, he was talking about owning the bus,” Joseph said. He suggested developing a fund for reconstruction and development including money to help develop black businesses and a self-help fund for the “poorest of the poor.” Franklin, James B. Duke professor emeritus of history, said he had no problem aligning the movements for civil rights with reparations, emphasizing the token of justice reparations would provide. He noted that on visits to Washington, D.C., he had seen many plaques documenting historical events, but not one noting slavery, adding that Washington had once hosted some of the largest slave markets in the country. “By the silence there is a denial of the role of blacks

ins and outs of Duke. While the education of Brodhead will be a multifaceted effort, his early course work has been largely defined by meetings with administrators, faculty members and students. In addition to the expected sit-downs with senior officials, he walked around campus last week with the Duke Student Government and Graduate and Professional Student Council presidents and had a luncheon with several medical students. “He’s not someone who learns as much from briefing papers as he does from walking around and talking to people,” said Senior Vice President for Public Affairs and Government Relations John Burness. Brodhead himself expressed positive impressions about his forays to campus. “I know I don’t know the place very well yet,” he wrote in an e-mail, “but I must say I feel quite at home there, and I appreciate everyone’s willingness to share knowledge with the new neighbor.” Some of the most important time Brodhead has spent on campus so far has been with outgoing President Nan Keohane, who has been getting him up to speed on the Duke University Health System. Brodhead will play a prominent role in the selection of a new DUHS chancellor and CEO to replace the departing Dr. Ralph Snyderman, said Provost Peter Lange, who estimated that the search would be completed by late March. Another goal of Brodhead’s meetings with administrators is for all parties to get acquainted, begin building relationships and learn about each other. “I’ve got know who my boss is, what he’s looking for in me,” Lange said. Brodhead must learn the complex set of stories that form the institutional memory of the University. For example, Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta said his main goal in his meetings with Brodhead will be to explain the transition of student life in recent years that began with a mandate that all freshmen live on East Campus and has since led to changes, such as the displacement of fraternities, in the social scene schoolwide. Not all of Brodhead’s course work takes place in meetings. He has received “homework” as well, in the form of voluminous briefs given to him from all quarters of the University.

Certificiate in photonics OKd

It's finally over!

by Cindy Yee THE CHRONICLE

The Graduate School and the Pratt School of Engi-

neering’s Fitzpatrick Center for Photonics and Communicadons Systems are now offering a graduate certificate program in photonics —another move in the University’s quest for the highest quality, most comprehensive photonics program in the nation. The program, which recognizes students who have developed interdisciplinary and transferrable sets of skills relating to photonics, addresses the increasingly significant

role of light in realms such as medicine, national defense and fiber-opdc communications. ‘The idea is that photonics—which is just opdcs with a sexy name—becomes so useful that it would be used for things that would involve the same kinds of applications that you might use electronics for,” said Bob Guenther, associate director of education for the Fitzpatrick Center. “For those people in the various sciences who decide to do multidisciplinary research activity involving photonics, this certificate would recognize this activity.” Pratt began a five-year, $lOO million photonics and communications inidative in Oct. 2000, with plans for state-of-the-art research facilities and an extensive research community of tenure-track faculty, research assistants and graduate students. Later that year, a $25 million gift for photonics research from Duke alumni Michael and Patty Fitzpatrick went toward the construction of the Center for Interdisciplinary Engineering, Medicine and Applied Sciences, which will house the Fitzpatrick Center in one of its two wings when it is completed this summer. The new certificate program is designed to accomodate both Masters of Science and doctoral students. It requires students to complete a survey course in photonics and three courses from the approved course listing, which draws from the departments of physics, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, biology and chemistry. Students must also attend at least four Fitzpatrick Center seminars and deliver a formal presentation in the seminar series. For doctoral students aiming for the photonics certificate, their dissertation committees will include members of the Fitzpatrick Center. Although the photonics certificate was not officially offered until this semester, the Fitzpatrick Center seminar series has been up and running for a couple ofyears. Currently, about 25 graduate students are attending this semester’s seminars, said Leigh Deneef, associate dean of SEE PHOTONICS ON PAGE

Bush boosts Medicare by 10.6 percent, record by

Robert Pear

NEW YORK TIMES NEWS SERVICE

Rapper and social activist Talib Kweli speaks to a full house in Reynolds Auditorium Monday as part of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day Commemeration.

WASHINGTON President George W. Bush will increase Medicare payments to health maintenance organizations and other private health plans by a record 10.6 percent in an effort to persuade them to enter the Medicare market and increase benefits for the elderly, administration officials say. Federal officials and members of Congress said they hoped the increase, five times as large as the typical annual increase in recent years, would reverse the exodus of private plans from the Medicare program. The administration, trying to enhance competition and efficiency in the Medicare marketplace, wants to triple enrollment in private plans within three years. With Medicare payments to HMO’s rising two percent annually in recent years, many insurance executives decided that they could no longer do business with the program because their Medicare-related costs were rising about 10 percent a year. From 1999 to 2003, health plans dropped more than 2.4 million Medicare beneficiaries. Some pulled out of Medicare entirely, while others curtailed their participation by withdrawing from specific counties. Leslie Norwalk, acting deputy administrator of the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, predicted that as a result of the increased payments, which take effect March 1, many private plans

would return to the Medicare program About 4.6 million beneficiaries, or 11 percent of the 41 million people enrolled in Medicare, are now in HMOs, which have customarily provided drug benefits and preventive care not available in the original fee-for-service program. The number of people in private plans reached a peak of 6.3 million, or 16 percent of beneficiaries, in late 1999. The Bush administration predicts that the Medicare law enacted last month will encourage people to enroll in HMOs and similar private plans called preferred provider organizations, so that by 2007, 35 percent of beneficiaries will be members of such plans. Tommy Thompson, the secretary of health and human services, described the increased payments as “an investment in our seniors.� As a result of the increase, he said, Medicare beneficiaries will have more options and better services. Private plans will be able to use the additional money to enhance benefits, to reduce premiums or co-payments paid by beneficiaries, or, as away of stabilizing the network of health care providers who serve the beneficiaries, to increase payments to doctors and hospitals. The new Medicare law not only created a prescription drug benefit but also gave private health plans a larger role in the program. Indeed, how much to pay the private plans was one of the biggest issues in congressional debate over the bill. ,

ANTHONY CROSS/THE

CHRONICLE

John Hope Franklin speaks to an audience on MartinLuther King Day.

PANEL from page 3 in the building of this country —not just the construction of buildings, but the building of the economy.” Darity presented three aims for reparations—an acknowledgment of harm, a position of redress for historical disparities and a bringing of closure to the addressing of harm. He felt that a legislative approach to reparations would best serve the aims of reparations, as the progress judicial rulings would provide might be limited at the local level by non-supporters. Darity countered opposition to reparations on the grounds that it would take away many of the claims blacks have for unequal status in America in his explanation of the importance of closure. “The purpose of having effective reparations would be closure, since no further claims would have to be made,” he said. Joseph, professor of the practice in public policy, said that closure would come with the “completion of the American revolution,” where principles out-

lined in the Declaration of Independence such as equality and justice would finally be provided to all people, regardless of their race. Joseph also took a hard public relations stance in discussing reparations. Although he likes the word “reparations,” as it holds particular significance to him, he recognized that in some circles, the term has gained negative connotations. “The response to the word has become damaging to its cause,” he said. Each of the panelists stressed the importance of the education of youth in the move toward reparations and equality. Still, money remained a central issue, both for education and more traditional examples of reparations. Darity explained that when recalculated for today’s dollars, the 40 acres and a mule provided for the families of freed slaves in a bill passed by Congress but vetoed by president Andrew Johnson in 1869 would equate to $1.5 million per person. “If we found billions of dollars to rebuild Iraq, why can’t we find the money to rebuild America?” Darity said.

successful black community of the 1920s in Oklahoma. Greenwood, a section of Tulsa, Ok., was destroyed by a white mob in 1921 after an exaggerated and misrepresented incident occurred involving a black man and a white woman at a hotel. On Feb. 28, 2003, Ogletree was among a high-powered group of legal experts that filed the first federal lawsuit on behalf of survivors of the Tulsa race riot. Ogletree explained that James B. Duke Professor Emeritus of History John Hope Franklin, a supporter of the Tulsa case and a guest at Ogletree’s discussion and Chapel service, was himself a direct descendent of the victims of the riot, as his family lost their business as a result of the riots. The Tulsa case exemplifies Ogletree’s continuing involvement in law issues with social causes, a passion of his he feels all members of the law community should exhibit. “A lawyer is either a social engineer or a parasite,” he said. Ogletree also discussed the 1954 U.S. Supreme Court case ofBrown v. Board of Education. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s landmark decision that declared segregation of schools unconstitutional and opened the door to black students in what had formerly been white-only public schools. Ogletree noted, however, that relatively little progress has since been made. “Fifty years after Brown, our schools are more segregated than they were then,” Ogletree said. He added that although some have had success with integration, not enough has been done to solve the problem. Ogletree also noted that although integration has occurred with blacks assimilating into the white community, the same can

not be said the other way around. “There is a sense that it is only them coming to us, but not us coming to them,” he said. Ogle tree also discussed the status of the reparations movement in America, not only with regard to recent issues such

as the Tulsa race riot lawsuit but also for more deeply rooted issues like slavery. In describing how he felt reparations for slavery should proceed, Ogletree said an apology would be a good start. He noted that former president Bill Clinton once said he would consider offering an apology to blacks for the treatment of their ancestors. However, it would only be the first step, Ogletree said, adding that in simply issuing an apology, it would only serve to heighten emotions with little hope of quelling them. “You can’t put this genie back in the bottle,” he said. Law professor Trina Jones, who specializes in race, law and civil procedure and who helped organize the discussion, said she thought the dialogue went “fantastically well,” adding that she was disappointed to have to bring discussion to a close when audience members still had things to say. Later Sunday, Ogletree again spoke to an eager crowd. During his speech in the Chapel, Ogletree noted that the biggest problem of today is the very problem of which W.E.B. Dußois spoke in 1903: the problem of the color line. “We are still suffering from the travesty of injustice, from the power of racism,” Ogletree said. He noted, however, that people are blind to the fact that the problem of racism still exists. “We don’t know our house is on fire,” he said. Sunday’s Chapel service also included speeches by a number of University administrators and students, as well as a representative of the mayor of Durham. Cindy Yee contributed to this story.

JANUARY 20,2004

Dean leading in New Hampshire and national polls. Kerry and Edwards turned that on its head, closing their campaigns with positive, forward-looking messages while Dean and Gephardt bickered over past votes and quotes. “My campaign to fight for working people may be ending tonight, but our fight will never end,” Gephardt said in a post-caucus speech that sounded like a political farewell. His shirt sleeves rolled to his elbows, his voice rising to a shout, Dean tried hard to reset expectations. “If you would have told us a year ago we would come third in lowa, we would have taken anything for that,” he yelled and later ticked off the primary states beyond New Hampshire. Dean said he called Kerry and Edwards and told them, “I’ll see you around the corner, around the block, starting tomorrow.” But the new day will bring new challenges for Dean. His vaunted Internet-driven organization, which helped him raise more than $4O million and dispatch 3,500 volunteers

to lowa, didn’t deliver. His anti-war, antiestablishment mes-

sage didn’t resonate. His rivals —Kerry and Edwards here and Wesley Clark in New Hampshire—didn’t back down. A string of endorsements—Al Gore, Bill Bradley, two major unions and lowa Sen. Tom Harkin—and, at the end, kind words from former President Carter didn’t help, and may have undermined his antiestablishment message. Dean had touted his ability to attract new caucus-goers, but an entrance poll found he did no better among firsttimers than among those who had attended lowa Democratic caucuses in the past. And so the former Vermont governor was searching for solace in a third-place finish, “There will be a lot less incoming flak, that’s for sure,” he told The Associated Press. As the race turned to New Hampshire, the Democrats were forced to share the political spotlight with President Bush, who planned to lay out his election-year agenda in his State of the Union address Tuesday. Clark, who rose in New Hampshire polls while Dean slipped in lowa, turned his sights on Kerry, a decorated Vietnam War veteran.

“He’s got military background, but nobody in this race has got the kind of background I’ve got,” said the retired four-star general. “It’s one thing to be a hero as a junior officer. He’s done that. I respect that... but I’ve got the military experience at the top as well as at the bottom.” Sen. Joe Lieberman, who also skipped lowa to focus on New Hampshire, said the wide-open race gives him a fresh shot. “We’re now on to New Hampshire, and New Hampshire is a whole new ballgame,” he said. Kerry aides predicted a negative New Hampshire race, and said they were prepared to fight blow-for-blow. The senator himself borrowed a 12-year-old line from Bill Clinton, who survived scandal to finish second in New Hampshire and pronounced himself the “Comeback Kid.” “I want to thank lowa for making me the ‘comeback Kerry,”’ the victor said. With 98 percent of the precincts reporting, Kerry had 37.7 percent, Edwards 31.9 percent, Dean 18 percent and Gephardt 10.5 percent. Long-shot candidate Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio was at 1.3 percent. An AP analysis of the lowa delegate count showed Kerry with 17 delegates, Edwards with 15 delegates and Dean with seven, with six delegates still to be allocated. Late-deciding voters turned away from mistake-prone Dean, and his signature position in opposition to the Iraq war did not seem to resonate. The anti-war vote split instead ofrallying around Dean, an Associated Press survey found. More than a third picked a candidate in the last week and Kerry got the support of four in 10 of the late deciders. His last-minute surge overrode the vaunted political organizations of Dean and Gephardt. Aides to Kerry and Edwards said their positive messages contrasted with Dean and Gephardt. “I hate mudslinging,” said Theresa Stradala, who voted for Edwards. Stung by criticism of his record on race relations, Medicare and trade, Dean said a week ago he was tired of being the party’s “pin cushion,” and suddenly looked weak to voters drawn to his blustery image. Gephardt gambled a few days later with an ad highly critical of Dean. The front-runner’s approval rating dropped. Voters who started second-guessing Dean drifted to Edwards or Kerry. Suddenly, it was a four-way race. A survey of caucus-goers, done for The Associated Press and the networks to measure initial preferences, showed Kerry got an especially strong boost from voters who said the “right experience” was the most important candidate quality—a theme the four-term senator pounded home in the race’s final days. The entrance poll showed Kerry reaping the benefits of Gephardt’s poorer-than-expected showing. Of the people who came to the caucuses backing the Missouri lawmaker—about 16 percent of the total —24 percent named Kerry as their second choice and 24 percent named Edwards.

HEATING UP from page 1 who wins, it’s how you do compared to the expectations that have been set by the press and all the various commentators,” said Bruce Jendeson, director of the Sanford Institute of Public Policy and professor of political science and public policy studies. Kerry and Edwards had been projected to finish behind Howard Dean and Richard Gephardt for weeks, until a recent surge by both propelled them forward. Both Jendeson and political science professor John Aldrich predicted last week that the race would be close. Professors said although the race is up in the air, lowa’s results could have important implications on the race for the Democratic nomination. “lowa caucuses are important for the reason that they are first, but also because people have invested so much attention-whether the candidates themselves, the media, [Saturday Night Live]-all the important actors in this process have invested so much in this that the results become increasingly meaningful,” Aldrich said. Still, lowa is not everything. “Rarely has it been the case that the winner oflowa steamrolls ahead,” Jentleson said. “I don’t think you have to win lowa, and I don’t think you have to win New Hampshire.” The first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary will feature a different cast of candidates, as Gephardt is expected to withdraw from the race and Wesley Clark and Joe Lieberman, who did not campaign in lowa, will be considerations. Professors gave Clark’s decision to avoid lowa mixed reviews. While it may be a necessary strategy, some said it was also a significant risk. For Lieberman, skipping lowa may not matter. “Lieberman has no chance,” said Jendeson, who worked with Lieberman on A1 Gore’s 2000 presidential campaign. “I don’t think his campaign is succeeding.”

Brodhead cannot be on campus as much as future Dean of the Faculty ofArts and Sciences George McLendon because he is finishing out his tenure as dean ofYale College. McLendon, by contrast, is on leave this semester from Princeton University. However, Brodhead said he will visit Duke frequendy, and, by mid-February, there will be long stretches when he is at Duke more than he is at Yale. In keeping up the work of both a dean and a president-in-training, he faces a rigorous schedule. “President-[elect] Brodhead’s really doing two very big jobs at the same dme,” Lange said, “so he may need a vacation

July!.” Though he must remain somewhat distant from campus, Brodhead has found uniquely northern ways to ex-

press his newfound Duke loyalty. “How could I fail to mention that I went to the Duke-Texas men’s b’ball game in Madison Square Garden in December, where I met lots of alums and cheering fans,” he wrote. “And [l] was at the women’s amazing triumph over the Connecticut local heroes, the [University of Connecticut] Huskies, which gave me huge delight.”

the Graduate School. He added that the Graduate School anticipates around 20 photonics certificate aspirants per year. Deneef speculated that the' program will be especially attractive to electrical engineering and physics students, as most of the classes on the approved course list come from these two departments. At the moment, he said, there are no plans for a full-fledged degree program in photonics due to the interdisciplinary nature of the field. “It seems at the moment that there are many more proposals for certificate programs than we’ve had recently,” Deneef said. “It’s probably [due to] the fact that many disciplines are moving in new directions and now exploring the borders between disciplines, and certificate programs are good for exploring on those borders.” The Graduate School has added 20 new certificate programs in the last decade.Last year saw the addition of three certificate programs. The photonics certificate is the first new certificate the Graduate School has added in the current academic year. Currently, there is no photonics certificate program for undergraduates, although undergraduates, may study photonics as an area of emphasis, Guenther said.

FUEL CELL from page 1 ford Institute of Public Policy, will be using their expertise in technology and business to come up with a strategic plan for GM on how they should go about commercializing fuel cell cars. “We are thrilled to be right in the middle of this technological revolution that has broad, global implications,” said Fuqua Dean Douglas Breeden in a statement last week.

The graduate-level course, Interdisciplinary Issues in Introducing Radical Technological Change in the Established Business, is composed of 30 students—three-fourths from Pratt or Fuqua, and a couple from the Sanford Institute—and began last Wednesday. The course will be repeated again this upcoming fall semester. “GM’s sponsorship will help advance the research agenda of talented faculty members, link this research to an ongoing course and provide value to the parties try-

ing to implement radical change,” said Fuqua Executive-in-Residence James Rabenhorst, who is responsible for coordinating all aspects of the initiative. Although it is common for Fuqua to be teaching courses around particular “living cases,” the magnitude of the this hydrogen fuel cell project is particularly challenging. ‘This project is probably the most complex [among the case-based projects we work on], in that it involves three different schools, five to six faculty members and could have huge impacts on society if successful,” Staelin said. Not only is the breadth of the project daunting, GM’s goal to have a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle by 2010 steps up the pressure another notch, Mitchell admitted, though still optimistic. “Is 2010 viable for GM? It’s a complicated puzzle. The challenge now is to break it down into smaller puzzles, which I think is doable,” Mitchell said. “Each of the puzzles, when you break them down into smaller pieces, is doable. The biggest

She ranks first among women’s players at Duke in career points (2,311), field goals made (873), field goals attempted (1639), steals (368) and double-figure scoring games (111). The Shreveport, La. native was the first freshman selected to the All-ACC team; she is the ACC career leader with 15 conference Player of the Week honors; and she will likely become the first player in ACC history to win

goal for Duke is to teach our students and generate generalizable knowledge. It’s not just a case.” Fuqua professors Wes Cohen, Michael Lennox and Mitchell, as well as a handful of graduate students, will be tackling the research aspect of the project’s puzzle. They will be looking at radical technical change, both specifically related to the impact offuel cell technology on the automotive industry and generally involving issues of change. There are a couple key parts to the research agenda. In one part, Fuqua faculty will investigate the role of internal organizational restructuring of a firm in enduring a radical technological change. Mitchell said they will be looking at the role of managing alliances as well as the feasibility of creating a second organization to initially commercialize the radical technology and then reign it into the preexisting firm. Their other goal is to take a look at past cases of technological change and establish patterns, describing what happens to firms affected by such changes. These patterns

Despite these honors, Beard has remained humble and unassuming, characteristics that have endeared her to her teammates and coach. “All the records she has broken and the awards she has received along the way don’t hold a candle to the type of

will be used to determine if there is away to predict why some firms disappear and others continue to adjust and flourish in the face of radical technological change. Often, Mitchell said, technological change is beyond the resources of one firm to control and disrupts existing organizations in the market. Advents in automotive engine technology, fuel distribution, breaking systems and standards of road safety have historically caused companies that existed before the changes occurred to disappear, Mitchell added. Such a particularly harsh history for firms in this industry is one reason why GM initiated this collaboration with Duke. “This is a top priority for General Motors,” said Larry Burns, vice president of research and development, and planning. “Collaborating with Duke’s outstanding faculty and students is providing GM with an excellent opportunity to further explore the technical, policy and business aspect of strategic decisions involving disruptive technological change.”

person she is and the way she has represented our program,” Goestenkors said. “She has given so much to Duke both on and off the court, and I am honored to have been able to coach Alana over the last four years.” The 5-foot-ll guard continues to make her mark during the 2003-2004 season, as she has led the top-ranked Blue Devils to a 14-1 record while averaging 19.7 points, 5 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 2.9 steals and 1.2 blocks per game. Beard’s parents, Leßoy and Marie, will be in attendance for Saturday’s ceremony to see their daughter’s No. 20 join Dick Groat (10), Art Heyman (25), Jeff Mullins (44), Mike Gminski (43), Johny Dawkins (24), Danny Ferry (35), Christian Laettner (32), Bobby Hurley (11), Grant Hill (33), Shane Battier (31) and Jason Williams (22). “This is a great step for women’s basketball at Duke,” Beard said. “And I hope to see more jerseys hung along with mine in the future.”

interested in such a venture. Therefore, I will now invite your attention to an ape of great interest: the bonobo, which uses innovative promiscuity to its great advantage. In a stunning book, Bonobos: The Forgotten Ape, Frans De Waal and Frans Laming describe how this species uses sex uniquely, embracing frequent encounters (on average once every 1.5 hours, albeit for a fleeting 13 seconds). In addition to mating in the ventro-ventral mode (missionary position), which is highly unusual, they engage in a number of non-reproductive sexual encounters involving all sexes and ages, including GG-rubbing among females (GG stands for Genito-Genital), rump-rump rubbing, inverted penis fencing, French kissing and other acts unmentionable in a family

newspaper. Suffice it to say that sex serves a

vital function in bonobo society, acting as “a mechanism of social repair.” These are nice anecdotes, to be sure, but why to they provide evidence for polyandry—and lesbianism—among Duke women? Undeniably, Duke girls are competitive, actualizing these urges by doing things like exercising, studying or engaging in nebulous social behaviors poorly understood by those condemned to live with XY chromosomes. And female bonobos are even more competitive than our peers, but avoid the misery of struggle by doing each other. De Waal writes pithily: “Sex reduces competition among females and allows them to forage together.” Imagine how sweet it would be if Duke girls could all go out foraging as a big, amiable troop. Foraging, I suppose, in this model would consist of shopping, and for that reason—harmonious social relationships, Duke women should embrace lesbianism. But in any event, his kind of cohesion allows for female bonobos to take control. In fact, female bonobos dominate male bonobos in many cases, and secure the right to eat first. In a more poignant example, anthropologist Amy Parish explains how one luckless male had his penis cleaved in two by the

common, and is a direct result of strong sex-

ually-based ties among bonobo females. Thus, by adopting bisexuality and episodic, goal-directed relationships with men, Duke

women can gain unity and empowerment. Yet the most important contribution polyandry among bonobos makes in their community is exacdy that; community. And at last we have it, since in this isolated regard things are the same for humans; we have reached the very heart of the message, the brilliant center that gives metaphysical justification to the pervasive “hook-up” culture at universities everywhere. “Hooking-up” is the ultimate way of creating social bonds among members of a group, and as such itis the most important social undertaking available to undergraduates. By enjoying encounters with a number of men, Duke girls are able to construct a relational web that fosters cooperation, communication and Dionysian understanding among students, and in so doing they should be congratulated and never denigrated, since these relationships improve life not only for the involved parties, but for everyone. Indeed—as a good friend pointed out to me —this kind of sexual integration has the potential to solve a host of social problems, particularly that of racial self-segregation. “Hooking-up” can transcend race. Thus, for fertility, resources, pleasure and community, Duke females ought to embrace polyandry, since—if done with proper prudence—it is of inestimable value. Men ought to be pursued, and women allowed to revel in the afterglow of freedom, to bask in the beneficent light of liberty and licentiousness. The time of the moralists who speak of being “distressed and depressed” by such things has passed; they are on the wrong side of progress.

but your partner is completely forthright and gives information? According to your logic at the time of the big conversation, all you can process is your fear ofbeing hurt and your desire to know what your someone is thinking. From this standpoint, you’ve won the game. So let’s say this win results in the two of you entering into a relationship. From the onset, this relationship is now predicated on a skewed balance of power. Your relationship begins with your taking all of the information and your partner taking all of the risks. Over time in yourrelationship, you will repeatedly encounter circumstances where information exchange between you and your partner is chiefly important. If you continue to withhold information and your partner continues to give information, you gradually come to know your partner better and better, while your partner knows essentially nothing about you. While this is a secure situation for you, it has the potential to become an emotionally devoid battleground where all you consider is how best to exploit your information advantage for increased relationship power. At some point, then, your partner will defect from this relationship, and leave you powerless and alone. What starts out innocent and defensive can in time develop strong and devious offensive power, which cheats you and your someone out of a fulfilling relationship. If you are aware of the long term pathology of withholding information, the one-time risk of hurt begins to seem less risky, and the potential for disaster less potent. The hope is that the fear is inoculated enough to drive both parties in a conversation to reveal information about each other, despite the potential for misunderstanding and short term pain. More importantly, it should give those listening to information an incentive to process it with care and detail, so that they might understand every nuance and distinction given to it by its speaker. Language is vague and variant from person to person, but a little game theory and a lot of attention should go a long way toward alleviating the pressure that ambiguity puts on human relationships.

THE CHRONICLE

At the ACC Indoor tournament thisweek-

end, the No. 8 men’s tennis team showed signs that they are ready for what will be a tough dual-match season. The highlight of the weekend for the Blue Devils was the double’s team of freshman Peter Rodrigues and sophomore Jonathan Stokke. Rodrigues and Stokke defeated the top doubles teams from Georgia Tech and North Carolina on their way to the finals. There they downedWake Forest’s top duo of Brett Ross and Derek Spice 8-6 to capture the tide. “Those guys played a really great tournament,” head coach Jay Lapidus said. “They beat some really tough teams and they’ve beeh playing great together.” The tandem’s toughest match of the weekend came in the quarterfinals. There they traded punches with Georgia Tech’s

Scott Schnugg and Josa Muguruza, the tournament’s top-seeded team, before emerging victorious 9-8 (6). “It was an intense match,” Rodrigues said. ‘We were lucky to pull ahead in the middle of the match and we played a good tiebreaker, staying really focused.” Stokke also competed in the singles bracket, advancing to the quarterfinals before losing 7-6 (3), 6-2 to Virginia’s Doug Stewart, the second seed and eventual singles champion. ‘Jonathan beat a couple of pretty good players,” Lapidus said. “He’s been working hard the last couple of months and the results are beginning to show. He played extremely well in doubles and I’mreally pleased with the way his level has been getting better and better.” Chris Brown and Jason Zimmermann also competed in the singles bracket for Duke. Brown fell to Virginia’s Stewart 64, 64 two rounds before the quarterfinals. Zimmer-

Before play began, Lapidus labeled the tournament a “warm-up” event to get his team ready for its dual-match season beginning at the end of the month. He stuck with that theme as the tournament ended, but he was nonetheless pleased with his team’s performance. “For having only practiced about a week, we looked really good,” he said. “I’m pleased with the way it went.” Lapidus is now intent on getting his team, ready for its first dual-match of the season against William & Mary on January 29th. ‘We’ll be ready to go forWilliam & Mary,” he said. “I’m not sure what they’re ranked but they’re potentially a top 20 program.

fied for the IC4A and ECAC meets in Boston in early March. The most impressive Blue Devil accomplishment was turned in by senior Brent Warner, as he started his season off strong by taking first place in the men’s pole vault with a height of 16-6.75. His mark was the highest the All-American had ever opened an indoor season with, and it is currently the best height in the ACC this season. With his jump he qualified for the IC4A meet. In the men’s 3000-meter run, junior Nick Schneider ran 8:25.25, finishing second in the race and moving into fifth on Duke’s all-time list. He also qualified for the IC4A meet. In that same race Chas Salmen surprised head coach Norm Ogilvie with an 8:33.76 time, good enough to clinch fifth place. He just missed qualifying for the IC4A meet by four seconds, and had never before broken 8:50. Freshman Dan King turned in another impressive time, as he ran a 49.83 in the 400 meters to finish fifth in Saturday’s meet. The time was good enough to move into third place in Duke history.

mile, as Casey Reardon and Cameron Bell ran 4:20.15 and 4:22.49, respectively. On the women’s side, Rachel Umberger finished first in the 800-meter run and also ran on the winning distance medley relay team with Jan Faraguna, Meaghan Leon and Clara Horowitz. It was the first meet that Horowitz, the former US Junior Cross Country Champion, competed in after taking last semester off from running. Outstanding performances were also turned in by sophomore Allison Nesbitt, who recorded a personal best time of 8.68 while finishing eighth in the 60-meter hurdles, and pole-vaulter Laura Chen, who matched her personal best with a height of 11-11.75. Both women qualified for the ECAC meet. Many of the Duke runners performed particularly well given that the meet was marred by technical difficulties with the timing system, delaying the starts of many events. “It was very tough on the competitors because they had to restart races,” Ogilvie said. “Our kids ran really well considering the conditions.” Both the men and women’s teams will compete in the Virginia Tech Invitational this weekend. “Saturday was a great day,” Ogilvie said. “We expect even better performances when we go and run on a banked track this weekend in Blacksburg, Virginia.”

ALL COMING TOGETHER

Blue Devils reach No. 1 ranking for seventh straight season after downing Wake by

Catherine Sullivan THE CHRONICLE

Another home game against a highly ranked opponent, another impressive victory for the Blue Devils. Behind a balanced scoring attack that saw four players reach double figures, then-No. 2 Duke (14-1, 4-0 in

the ACC) continued its dominance in Cameron Indoor Stadium, defeating then-No. 4 Wake Forest 84-72 Saturday afternoon. The win over the Demon Deacons (11-2, 2-1) extended the Blue Devils’ unblemished run at home to 36 games—second in the nation to Pittsburgh’s 37 straight—and gave them sole possession of first place in the ultra-competitive ACC. And with North Carolina’s defeat of Connecticut, Duke moved into first place in the AP poll, marking just the second-time in school history that both the men’s and women’s programs sat atop the polls simultaneously. UConn is the only other school to achieve this feat. “It was a great win for us,” said freshman Luol Deng, who finished with 15 points, six rebounds and two blocked shots as the Boston Celtics’ Executive Director of Basketball Operations Danny Ainge watched from the sidelines. “We want to be at the top of the ACC. We just felt like coming out here and making it clear that this was our home and we wanted this game more than they did.” Duke came out firing in the first half, and a threepointer by guard Daniel Ewing —who matched his season high with 20 points on 6-of-10 shooting—with 15:28 remaining put the Blue Devils ahead 12-4 and forced Wake Forest to call a timeout. But the break in the action did nothing to stop Duke’s

momentum. A lob pass from Sean Dockery to Chris comfortable six points with 15:35 remaining in the game. “[Wake Forest] had seized the momentum of the Duhon, a three-pointer by Deng and two from long range game,” Krzyzewski said. “We got the ball to Shelden, and by Redick increased the lead to 23-11 and had the 200thhe relocated to Daniel and he knocked it down. It was crowd Cameron going crazy. consecutive sellout at “That’s what we try to do, go ahead and not let people worth more than three. It was like, okay, we’re back.” Ewing’s shot proved to be a dagger, as sophomore JJ. come back,” Deng said. “I thought we came out with a Redick—who finished with a game-high and season-high and the fans us a lot helped great intensity and focus, 23 points—continued his hot shooting from the floor and with our intensity.” Despite the early deficit, Wake Forest battled its way Duke never looked back. Redick elicited perhaps the loudest cheer of the night back into the game. Fueled by deep three pointers from from the frenzied crowd just minutes after Ewing’s three. Paul, Chris who combined to score and guards Justin Gray 25 points, the Demon Deacons pulled within four at 27-23 A defensive rebound by Deng led to a fast break the other way for the Blue Devils. Ewing appeared to be driving for with just under five minutes remaining in the first half. a layup, but he instead kicked the ball to a wide-open The Blue Devils, led by center Shelden Williams, responded with a run of their own. Williams had five points, Redick behind the arc, who knocked it down from the two blocks, two rebounds and an assist on a Deng basket right wing to give Duke a 53-44 edge. lead into the “I had a great time out there today, and I think we had the final 4:25 to Duke a 41-30 going in give lockerroom. The Oklahoma native—who finished the a great time as a team,” Redick said. “These are the games, these are the reasons you come to play for Duke, a game game with 16 points, 14 rebounds and eight blocks—also had more rejections (6) in the opening 20 minutes than like this where Cameron’s rocking.” Another long-range bomb by Redick with 11:47 left put Wake Forest had assists (5). “Obviously, in the first half, Shelden Williams was just the Blue Devils up by 11, and they kept their double-digit lead for the remainder of the game. a horse inside and we had no answer for him,” Wake ForDuke’s performance was especially impressive considest head coach Skip Prosser said. “He played really well. ering that it had only one day of rest after Thursday He blocked shots, he rebounded and he scored.” Williams started the second half how he ended the night’s late 76-57 victory over N.C. State. ‘We knew they were going to be on their best game, first—with another block—but the Demon Deacons went on a 12-4 run coming out of halftime to cut their deficit and if we used the excuse of not having energy, we were to just three points. going to get embarrassed on our home court, and that’s Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski called a 30 second something we don’t want to happen,” said Duhon, who timeout after a Gray three pointer made the score 45-42, had a career-high 14 assists. “But you have to credit our and Ewing responded with a clutch shot of his own from fans. Our fans were amazing today. I don’t remember the downtown that restored the Blue Devils’ lead to a more last time it was this loud in Cameron.”

Even when Duke was leading by only four points following a 10-0 Wake Forest spurt at the beginning of the second half, it didn’t seem like the Blue Devils would lose. Why? This Duke team has a diversity of offensive weapons, many of which were in high gear. A Duke team that can attack with four starters scoring 15 or more points is very difficult to defend—a force the Demon Deacons team was up against today. Establishing an inside presence early catalyzed Duke on its way to a 84-72 victory over Wake Forest Saturday afternoon in Cameron Indoor Stadium. Shelden Williams and Luol Deng controlled the inside early in the first half. Both big men scored and crashed the offensive boards, commanding defender’s attention and opening up driving lanes for Chris Duhon and other Blue Devil penetrators. ‘We can score from every position,” head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “Having Shelden in there more minutes helps for keeping balance. He is really good and he is ready to give us that inside scoring.” Even more significantly, Williams and Deng’s hot starts offensively forced the defense to converge on the paint area. The result: Wake was forced to pull its attention away from Duke sharpshooters JJ. Redick and Daniel Ewing. The pair made some shots in the first half but did not heat up until Wake Forest cut the Duke lead to four points at the start of the second period. Redick finished the game with a team-high 23 points, including a four-of-eight performance from behind the arch. Ewing added 20, also nailing four three-point attempts. “It’s helping me and Daniel out because teams can’t overplay us,” Redick said. ‘When we’re coming off screens the big guys can’t give as much help because Shelden is going to finish down there. It just gives us another dimension.” Although Williams and Deng were the propellant for the Duke offense against Wake Forest, the inside-outside equality is not the only balance that makes this Duke offense potent. Compounding the defensive headaches for opposing coaches is the difficulty teams have guarding the Blue Devils’ pair of perimeter shooters. Some teams may have a player capable of staying with Redick or Ewing and getting a hand in one of their faces when they attempt to hoist up a shot, but rarely does a team have two—Prosser certainly didn’t today. “Other teams can’t just focus on one player like me and J.J. out on the floor together,” Ewing said. “They can’t just focus on him and leave me wide open. Sometimes it happens like that when they focus on J.J.’s shooting and I’m able to get some open shots.” In fact, Ewing hit two of the biggest shots of the game for the Blue Devils to put an end to Demon Deacon runs. Ewing said that he was not the number one option on one of those three pointers. In these instances—as was the case throughout the game—it was impossible for Wake Forest’s defense to focus on all of Duke’s threats and Ewing found holes and made his shots. Further evidence ofWake Forest’s inability to find an answer from the Blue Devil offense was the ease with which Duke was able to find

open shot opportunities. Krzyzewski’s team was only forced to take difficult shots on several occasions because the Demon Deacons had no answer for the Blue Devils’ balance. Generating an even attack is something of which Krzyzewski is conscious throughout the contest. “We’ll go to different guys throughout the game to make sure they stay in the game,” he said. “That has kind of worked well.

sive basketball team.” Throughout the Blue Devil s 11-game winning streak, Duke has attacked its opponent from all over the floor. Whether it be Duhon’s slashing, Williams’ post play, Redick and Ewing’s shooting, or Deng s versatility, the offensive diversity has been one of the keys to Duke success, “You have to respect all guys on our team and that will get the kind of matchups that we want,” Ewing said.

Cavaliers anything but against No. 1 Blue Devils by

Jason Strasser

THE CHRONICLE

Charlottesville, VA The score was ded with 8:31 left in regulation. Duke’s AllAmerican guard Alana Beard was struggling, shooting 3-for-14 from the floor with at 41

12 points.

Up to that point, UVa’s plan to make Beard a perimeter shooter was working to perfection. Cavalier guard LaTonya Blue, who matched up against Beard all night, frequently gave her six feet of room around the three-point arc. But with the game, and Duke’s No. 1 ranking, in jeopardy, Beard stopped setding for the outside jumper. The star Duke guard hit three lay ups and six in a row from the free throw line, doubling her point total to 24 on her way to leading Duke (14-1, 5-0 in the ACC) to a 63-52 victory over Virginia (8-8, 2-3). “I started taking shots within our offense,” Beard said about the turnaround in her play. “During the first half I was rushing a lot of shots, and when they gave me good looks I rushed those too.” After the game, Duke head coach Gail

Goestenkors was relieved

win, it seemed like every score was a struggle for us.” The Cavaliers entered the game with their leading rebounder and scorer Brandi Teamer suspended. Fortunately for UVa, the suspension will be resolved shordy, according to Cavalier head coach Debbie Ryan. The absence of Teamer was countered by a large contribudon from Blue, who had 15 points, seven rebounds and five assists. Jocelyn Logan-Friend also contributed on the defensive end, totaling 10 rebounds and five blocks, both career-highs. But despite Logan-Friends’ efforts, Ryan believed her team needed to do better on the defensive glass. “I feel like where we really lost the game was on second-chance points,” Ryan said.

History repeats itself. Duke keeps top-ranking to CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va.—History does not repeat itself, but it rhymes.

Though this world view can easily be attacked for its overly general disposition, the theory was almost flawlessly applicable for the women’s basketball team’s game Sunday at Virginia. In January of 2003, the No. 1 Blue Devils walked into University Hall to face the sub-.500 Virginia Cavaliers in what was expected to be another blow-out in Alana Beard and Co.’s whirl-wind tour of the ACC. In January of 2004, Duke once again topped the AP poll, and Virginia was once again struggling to win consistently. Once the games started, coincidences continued. In both games Duke struggled tremendously in the first half, trailing at halftime to the Cavaliers in both games, shooting -23.1 percent from the field in 2003 and 31.4 percent in 2004. The second half of both games also featured the teams trading the lead over-and-over, and in both contests Vir-

can’t have 24 turnovers and expect to win a game, especially against the best team in the country.” Monique Currie led the Blue Devils in offensive rebounds with four. Currie also also scored 10 points and grabbed five defensive rebounds. Ryan was impressed. ‘They’re a much better team with her,” Ryan noted. “[Currie] is one of the best players on that team. Sometimes I think that she was tougher to guard then Beard at times. She’s such a great penetrator, and she’s added an outside game to her aresenal. But she’s really a great offensive rebounder; she’s one of the best I’ve ever seen. We didn’tkeep her off the boards tonight and that really hurt us.” The Blue Devils also recieved a solid performance from sophomore guard Lindsey Harding. During Duke’s late run in the second half, Harding snatched a defensive rebound, weaved her way through Virginia defenders, and fed Beard with a perfect bounce pass for a lay up. Harding finished the game with eight points on 24 shooting, five rebounds, and five assists. An obvious disappointment on the night for the Blue Devils was senior Iciss Tillis. The Duke forward had seven points on 2-for-13 shooting, two rebounds and three turnovers. “I really feel for Iciss because she’s trying to do everything within her power to play well,” Goestenkors said. “Her shot is just not falling. She’s now not rebounding the way she wants too; she’s thinking too much.” Duke’s next game is at home against Maryland on Thursday.

State.” The buzz ofexcitement had begun right before the 500 free, when Duke finished 1-2 in the 200 backstroke. Katie Fay finished first in the event with a time of 2:04.88, and freshman Michelle Aristeo just touched out her third-place opponent with a time of 2:07.66. “It felt great to win, especially at such a crucial point in the meet,” Fay said. “For me to win and for Michelle to come second was clutch at that time and put us in great position with a chance to win the meet....People just swam their minds out today.” The men’s side of the event was not as close, and despite several impressive performances, Duke fell to the Wolfpack by a score of 146-85. “I think that we we’re pretty happy with our perfor-

occurrence even more powerful is that this was an off day for almost the entire team. Though Duke certainly showed signs ofits brilliant abilities in the Virginia game, signs do not always equal victories. And with six minutes left in the game, the Cavaliers trailed the periodically intimidating Blue Devils by only two points and had the home crowd and the game’s momentum on their side. But Virginia soon learned that if nothing about history is inevitable, the scoring of ability ofAlana Beard is. With approximately 5:30 minutes in the game, Duke head coach Gail Goestenkors put the Blue Devils in their spread offense. Beard scored eight straight points in this offense, and Duke increased its lead to 5345. “She’s a second-half player,” Virginia head coach Debbie Ryan said. “You really have to defend her a million different ways.” Virginia would cut that lead to four with 2:51 left, but this success would be short-lived. The Cavaliers began full-court pressing the Blue Devils in hopes of forcing turnovers. Instead, Virginia gave Harding, who has freak-nasty speed, just what she wanted. “I like the press because once I get past the first man, it’s a five-on-four, so we got a lot of fast break lay ups out of it,” Harding said. Duke sealed its 63-52 victory by nailing its last 10 freethrows, another positive sign Duke can take away from its mostly lackluster win. While the Virginia game was far from a solid performance for the nation’s No. 1 team, the Blue Devils showed signs of why this year’s squad has far more tools to cut down the nets in New Orleans.

Heifers’ time of9:41.69 in the 1000 freestyle accounted for one of the Blue Devils’ three victories in the men’s side of the event Duke was also victorious in the 400 freestyle relay, with a time of3:11.88, and the 200IM, thanks to John Humphrey’s 1:55.10 finish. Duke’s admirable effort against N.C. State comes only two days after both the men’s and women’s squads defeated Davidson 151-80 and 141-100, respectively. “We didn’t expect anything spectacular in terms of times,” Duke assistant coach Lynzee Sharp said. “We were tired, we lifted yesterday, and we hadn’t competed in a few weeks.” The Davidson meet also marked the return sophomore standoutKatie Ness, who swam for the first time since injuring her knee. Ness won in both the 100 and 200 freestyle events. “Ness was pretty impressive,” Sharp said. “It was good to see her back in the water.” The Blue Devils will continue their schedule next Saturday when they face Virginia at home.

Coming tomorrow: Two more recruits commit to the football team.

We want to remind everyone about the bonfire policy we established several years ago, which will again govern this year’s activities. The victory celebrations following big games in recent years have been what we have all hoped for, and ones in which the Duke community could take pride. The same rules will remain in effect this year and, with your cooperation, we will continue to celebrate our victories safely and enthusiastically. In keeping with this goal, we remind you of some key concerns:

1. The University will obtain City permits for four potential bonfires, on the days ofmen’s home games against

Maryland (February 22) and UNC (March 6), and the Men’s and Women’s National Championship Games (April 5 and 6). The first permitted basketball bonfire is Sunday, February 22.

2. Bonfires on any other days will not be permitted by the City and are, therefore, illegal. Anyone who participates in a bonfire on any other day will be subject to University discipline and potential criminal prosecution. 3. The City Fire Marshall asks that everyone stay at least 10 feet away from the fire

4. Please keep stacked benches to a reasonable height (not more than three) and do not climb on top. The tragedy at Texas A & M a few years ago provides ample evidence why.

5.

If you carry a beverage, please use a plastic or metal container. There will be additional trash receptacles on the quad

6. Do not sit or stand on building roofs

7. Do not use dorm furniture as fuel for a bonfire.

Do not add fuel to the fire more than two hours following the game

8. The use of gasoline or any other fire accelerant is prohibited 9. The only permitted bonfire site is in front of House P. Any fires that are started outside of this area will be considered illegal and dealt with at the discretion of the City Fire Marshall and Duke University Police. The City Fire Marshall has the right to revoke this and future bonfire permits if these rules are not followed or the crowd gets out of control. Let’s not abuse this privilege. Celebrating basketball victories with a bonfire is now a Duke tradition. Follow these basic safety rules so we can maintain this tradition for years to come.
