Evidence collected by a hidden camera was used in an administrative hearing for two members of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity who were charged with inter­fering with a key-card security system in Poteat House.

In the grid directly outside suite 405 in Poteat there is no sign left of the camera which had been hidden there in early November. The camera had purposefully been put out of view by the technician from SFI Electronics Inc, the Charlotte company which installed and monitors the campus security system, in order to find out why that particular door was having so much trouble.

"What happened was that the techni­cian had to come back to make repairs on that door several times during to one­and-a-half to two week period," Connie Carson, the director of Residence Life and Housing, said. "By that time we noticed that the bill was for $1900 on that one door."

Unexpected procedure change forces SG to distribute student basketball tickets

Since the 1992-93 Deacon basketball season, Student Gov­enimenthas aided the ticket office staff during ticket distribution for ~e University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and Duke University home games, but S\Ulday marked a new era of SO participation as the executive officers and others did all but hand out tickets.

·When SG Secretary senior Tametta Jones arrived at Pugh Auditorium at 8 a.m. Sunday, 35 students were already in line to acquire their tickets for Saturday's game against Carolina.

"If they want to pay SG to handle this, that is great- we could make it a service project or something, or maybe the APOs would want to do it," he said.

For the time being, the process by which students obtain basketball tickets will not change, despiteSG' s stepped-up efforts. ·

On another front is the issue of the Wake Wackos occupying student seats in Joel Coliseum. The ticket office granted this group of alumni and community members the block of seats before the season began.

Police were notified that pieces of paper; plastic and unidentifiable metal were found in the door frame obstruct­ing the security system. "It looked to have been intentionally placed tliei:e," Lawson said.

The camera was removed after ten days.

Although the camera was placed ii:i.a public stairwell it could have shown any activity in the corner room of the hall, which is clearly visible through the glass frames in the door.

Lawson said residents of the suite were not informed about the presence of the hidden camera. "It was a covert camera," she said. See Camera, Page 3

SG addresses stuqep.ts' .,~ghts, ' . . ' . ' ~

majors, minority representation BY LILLIAN NASH

SG REPORTF.&

New information for students declaring majors, the creation of a list of protected student rights and an evaluation of the Student Government provi­sion for a legislature appointment from the Black Student Alliance topped the list of concerns dis­cussed in SG committee meetings Tuesday.

To aid sophomores who will soon declare their majors, junior Heather Saunders, the Academic Committee chairwoman, said department chairs will announce schedules of informational ses­sions for prospective majors.

"Hopefully, this will help people choose an appropriate and comfortable major if they know what the department is all about The department chairs have been enthusiastic with their support, and I personally hope that sophomores or even curious freshmen will take advantage of this op­portunity," Saunders said.

The ~cademic Committee will request that professors' syllabi be filed on reserve in the li­brary for all undergraduates to consult before registration for the coming semester.

lature in the· case that a minority student is not selected during the general election. Wall said, "The group is large and diverse enough to study this potentially volatile issue very well. We are all interested in keeping this as professional as pos­sible, and I personally think this is an excellent opportunity to evaluate how well black students, or any minority for that matter, have assimilated in the Wake Forest community."

Wall announced the completion of revisions to the Group Advisory Panel procedures and an up­coming dialogue with Dean Holmes.

Finally, the Student Relations Committee is plan­ning activities to ease student relations with faculty and administrators, between Greeks and indepen­dents, and with minorities.

According to the Student Relations Committee Co-chair, Tina Schippers, "The two most impor­tant upcoming things are open forums on eating disorders and race relations. In March we are bringing in a registered dietician and people that have been traumatized by eating disorders. From there we hope to break down into small groups for discussion that can continue to meet weekly if they want. The other forum is about race relations and will be held later. We hope people realize that we can't forget about race relations. They need to be touched on because not everything is fine and well."

PPC 's call for smaller classes wins approval I

Every high school senior has heard of the horrors: the first day of class in college, and freshmen find themselves sitting on the floor in a huge lecture hall packed with 600 other nervous first-year students, so far away from the professor they have to squint just to see if he's a he or she's a she.

Another suggestion made in the PPC report, that of introducing some sort of freshman seminar course, haS encountered more mixed reviews. Dennis, a transfer stu­

5th NC District's Burr gets seat on influential committee .. . . . .

BY BRUCE R. MARSH NEWS PRODUCTION ASSIST ANT

After riding the wave of Republican victory in the Congressional elections of November, Richard Burr '78 was sworn in Jan. 4 as the frrst.Republican congressman to represent North Carolina's fifth district in over20 years.

At the end of the day Burr said, "Although today is a day of celebration, my main priority was to get down to business and to pass the congressional reform the fifth district serit me to Washington to fight for."

Burr has been assigned to the powerful House Energy ·and Commerce Committee, which presides over health, environment and energy issues. As a member of the committee, Burr also serves on three of its subcommittees, including Health and the Environment, Energy and Power, and Oversight and Investigation.'

The tobacco and health care industries make up the two largest employee bases in the Piedmont region. ·"My appointment to Energy and Commerce will give the Fifth District the frrst voice in major legislation in health care and will help balance out the attacks over the tobacco industry," Burr said.

He will have to contend with the ranking minority member on the committee andoneofthe tobacco industry's most outspoken critics, Rep. Henry W ax,man, D-Cal. Last year, Waxman held a series of controversial hearings over allegations that tobacco companies were strengthening their cigarettes with additional nicotine in an effort to

. make them addictive and increase sales~ During his election campaign, Burr focused on the now­

famous "Contract With America,"whichcalled for changes including congressional reforms, a balanced budget amend­ment, term limits and increased mili~ary expenditures.

On Jan. 4 the new Speaker of the House of Representa­tives, Newt Gingrich, broke the traditional ceremonial agenda of-the first day by calling on the House to pass a slate of new congression'al reforms.

These changes included widespread cutbacks in com­mittees, requiring a three-fifths majority vote. for tax

, increases and voting to conduct acomprehensive.audit of the House's finances. Burr voted in favor of all of the reforms.

Because of the ongoing congressional reforms and 'the Contract's call for a balanced budget amendment, many government programs could face budget reductions in the next few years.

"Everything is on the table except Social Security,!' Burr said. He said he believes funding for all government programs should be screened for waste so overall govern­ment spending can be reduced.

One such area that could face cutbacks is student aid

programs like the Pell Grant and the Clinton administration's new Americorps. The Americorps pro­gram, which was one of Clinton's campaign pledges, allows college students to work in various community service projects in return for college tuition. . Gingrich has criticized the program as a gimmick and

yet another example of government waste. Burr said he believes student aid programs need to have increased access and be more customer-friendly. He said he favors the creation of federal block grants that would allow state and municipal agencies to band out aid to eligible college students, reducing the federal government''s role in fi­nancing education.

As for the groWing economy and the current job situa­tion for graduating seniors, Burr said one of his major goals· continues to be assuring college students that they should not have to worry about finding a job after gradu-

ation. "Creating an abundance of jobs for young people entering the workforce is the backbone of what the new Congress is trying to accomplish. Assuring college gradu­ates of a job should not be a promise, but a commi trnent," • he said. · :

The fifth district includes Winston-Salem and incorpo- • rates 14 counties across the northwestern part of the state. : Burr defeated Democratic challenger A.P. Sandy Sands in : November's election. · ·

Burr graduated from Wake Forest in 1978 with a degree : in communications. He was a three year letterman· in : football and was a member of the Kappa Sigma fraternity. : Currently Burr has six Wake alumni serving in his Wash- · ington and district offices. They are Brian Joyce '94, : Patrick Sullivan '93, Charles Green '92, Anne Thomas Green '90, Dean Myers '85 and Doug Bassett. who attended the law school.

· ·· were dropped'by their fav9rite groups or .. who qUit for other reasons'. .

'· - Women's Rush went smoothly accord-ing to junior April Arden, vice-president of the Panhelleilic Council and the Rush

· Chair.:. · On Sunday afternoon 234 women were

· presented with bids after a week of activi-ties' and parties; ·

"We had 256 girls we tried to match with bids but in the end 22 of them did not

: get one," Arden said. . A: new policy1hi.s year required women

who chose to· drop out or who were re­leased at any time during the process to complete a questionnaire.

"We jilst want to know why they are . dropping and see if we can do anything about it," Arden said.

·Of those women who did not complete · the process only four or five quit for

reasons other than being dropped by the group they had indicated as their f'rrst

· choice. During the assemblies and at dif­ferent functions it was explained to the rushees that limiting their choices would increase their risk of being dropped.

"We tried to discourage that, but when

you are filling out the forms you are so hopeful and feel so good about it that you don't really pay much. attention to (ad­vice)," Arden said. ''You have to remem­berthat there are a lot of groups on campus and they each have a lot to offer. I guess we didn't manage to get,rid of some of the stereotype~ which became .ingrained in them. And other girlsjust reruly had their hearts set <!n one group."

Overall, ,the at,mosphere was very posi­tive and. everyone enjoyed learning about the different groups, Arden said~

"I am really grateful to everyone on the committee for coming back early," she said. .

Work has already begun toward the organization of next year's Rush to make it ·as· smooth and manageable as possible for the next committee.

Marge Converse, the northeastern del­egate of the national Panhellenic Council, spoke with Arden and Mary Gerardy, the assistant vice-president for student life and the adviser to the Panhellenic Coun­cil, about changing aspects of the process. Converse cited examples of other univer­sities where the members of the previous committee help the inembers of the new one throughout Rush. · .

"The old members run things and the new members learn from them," Arden said. "This way everyone feels like they are involved and they trust each other and are part of a team."

time, a World Wide Web site. The Web site at Wake Forest is, in terms of structure, compa­rable to that at Duke University and other, smaller universities. However, the Wake For­est site is nearly barren, providing few sources of information.

. Pres~de~t Bill Clinton addressed a plethora of tss~es m bts. State of the Union Address Tuesday while stressmg a theme of shared responsibilities by government and citizens.

Specific programs proposed by Clinton included a n~tional registry to check the immigration status of JOb applicants, an increase in the minimum wag~, and a campaign against teenage pregnancy.

Clinton emphasized the themes proposed in his 1992 campaign more than the new specific pro­grams. He repeated entreaties for a middle class tax break and a revision oflobbying and campaign finance laws, two issues from his 1992 campaign he has had little success implementing.

New JerseyGovernorChristineTodd Whitman delivered the official Republican Party response, in which she said some of Clinton's proposals were of a remarkably conservative nature.

• Israel proposes separation

Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin proposed a new policy regarding Palestinian-Israeli rela­tions after a suicide bombing that killed 19 Israelis Sunday. Rabin proposed a policy of separation between the two groups and said his government will begin working on the specifics of the plan as early as next week. Palestinian officials said the separation proposal is not objectionable to them as long as they are treated fairly.

Some Cabinet members began talks concerning the possibility of constructing a high fence be­tween the West Bank and Israel. A few Cabinet members suggested dogs and border guards as enforcers. It is uncertain where the wall will be located . due to the fractured nature of the two groups' land.

The question of the wall is complicated by the fact that many Palestinians sneak across the Pal­estinian-Israeli border every day to work at low­paying jobs in Israel, thus providing cheap labor many Israelis are reluctant to relinquish.

Worrell Library alters lending policy Winston residents cannot check out materials from Jaw, business library

. . ' ' '

Greg Bayer

The Worrell Center library no longer loans resources to individuals outside the Wake Forest community.

BY DANIELLE DEAVER

NEWS PRODUCTION ASSISTANT

A policy change at the Professional Center Library in the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company Wing of the Worrell Professional Center will revoke Win­ston-Salemresidents' privilege to check out library materials.

Members of the community will still

not return books, he said. An additional reason for the change

in policy was library officials' opinion that students should have easy access to any of the university's circulating materials, Steele said. If people out­side of the university were allowed to check out materials, the chance of an item a student may need being out

be able to use the library as a reference ''We felt that we should center.

Basically, library materials. Basically, people can still come in and use the people can still come in and resources." . . · use the resources."

The change m policy occurred for several reasons, Steele said. One was Thomas Steele the library's lack of ability to force DirectoroftheProfessionaJCenterUbrary

people from outside the university to return books. While the university can take various actions against students if they fail to return books, the library's policy of not charging fines for overdue books leaves it without a penalty for people outside of the university who do

would increase. Steele emphasized the change in

policy would not have a negative ef­fect on students. 'There's no real im­pact on students that I can think of other than a positive impact,". Steele

said. Students currently at the univer­sity still have full rights to check out circulating materials, as do faculty mem­bers, attorneys and alumni.

The Professional Center Library's policy regarding community members' ability to check out books differs greatly from that of the Z. Smith Reynolds Library. Reynolds Library allows all students, faculty members, faculty mem­bers' families and alumni full privileges to check circulating materials out of the library. Other people affiliated with the library can also obtain cards. People in no way affiliated with the university can obtain a card for $100 a year. Fac­ulty members at institutions in the Pied­mont Triad area can obtain a library card at half of the normal fee.

The Professional Center Library of­fers many services to the surrounding areas. North Carolina bar members can utilize photocopying, fax and delivery services offered by the library. The li­brary also provides summer training for future law clerks and offers tours to local high school and college pre-law and paralegal societies.

Shesaidsheis excited about her new position and she plans tocreatewhatsheenthusiasti­cally refers to as "the Benson Center of the future." She said she plans for it to generate programs and to offer services to engage and involve the en- · tire. campus community.

Iwata said she hopes the workshops will be "highly interactive, experientially

baSed" programs with broad, interdisciplinary topics. She named silch topics as Women in Spirituality, "Al­ternative Healing", and aMen's Workshop as examples, but she said these ideas are tentative. Iwata said she plans to solicit faculty, staff and student programming input.

In addition to innovative programs, Iwata said she wants to expand services to fit the changing needs of the university. As director, her responsibilities include over­seeing the food court and fitness level. She said she intends to maintain a positive relationship with food vendors and to keep the fitness center eq~pment up to date.

"It is the people that make the job exciting," Iwata said. In the three weeks since she assumed the job, she has made self-initiated steps to meet with department heads, faculty, and student groups in order to establish contacts on the campus, she said.

Iwata has worked for educational, nonprofit and profit organizations in Vermont, California, Hawaii and North Carolina. She said she views the opening at Wake Forest as a good professional opportunity. She said, "It is a chance to get back to the area (North Carolina) and

to step into a position with an emphasis on PTCIW.Dillmirag and administrative special services."

According to Mary Gerardy, the assistant vice p1resiide1~t for Student Life, Iwata was one of three applicants viewed for the position of director. Gerardy chaired the member selection cornittee that chose Iwata.

In addition to Gerardy, members of the committee cludedDebraHolcomb, the ass1oci;:tte ldirc:ctctrolfthc~Bc~nslon Center, James Ferrell, the director of Human Re:source:s, Joanne O'Brien, the associate director of De:ve:Lop1m€mt, Timothy Burton, an assistant director' of Resident Life and Housing and Kenji Kuramoto, the head of the Student Union.

Gerardy said, "(The committee) tried to &elect people that a) have interest and b) have experience in Qte position." She said that Iwata fulfilled these qualifications and ''will make an excellent addition to Wake Forest."

By accepting the position, Iwata relieved Gerardy, who had been serving as director since the resignation of Mark Hall, the fonner director ofBenson. Hall left Aug. 1 to take a new job at the University of Central Florida, Gerardy said. She was unaware that Hall had been looking for other jobs, she said. ·

control the crowd, some officers egged people on, and one officer cussed at a student who "accused him of being afraid of being around a lot of black folks" after he was sprayed.

"It was like revisiting what might have occurred before the Rodney King incident," she said.

At about this time a crowd began to grow in the hallway as officers prohibited more students from enter­ing.

Senior Melanie Branham, the vice president of the Deltas, said she was standing at the door when the officer next to her in the hallway said the frre marshall had just advised him to stop admitting people. She said she never saw the marshall, though.

Senior Ladonna Hairston, the president of the Deltas, said she did not think the Pit was at capacity, but that they began to turn students away for fear of violating the fire code ..

"Pepper spray was sprayed between that period after the music had stopped and people were leaving," she said. "That was when the door was broken (the door facing the Magnolia Quad). People couldn't get out fast enough," Hairston said.

Lawson said the peper spray is a natural substance composed of processed red peppers and is projected with a water based aerosol.

According to Lawson the events leading to the spray­ing started around 1:15 a.m. when the lights were turned on and the last song was being played.

Lawson said Johnson, officers J.D. Hartman and Jeffrey Holleman and Steve Hickman, an unanned secu­rity guard, remained inside (near the disk jockeys) to assist the Forsyth deputies with crowd control.

In the midst of shoving Hickman started to make his way over to Johnson, Lawson said. Hartman also went toward the shoving area at end of room near the DJ. She said at that time two individuals exchanged blows.

"As Hickman approached the area he was strucki!l th~ chest and knocked down to the floor. Officer Hartman was between a group of people that reached down and grabbed his radio off his belt," Lawson said.

She said as Hickmari attempted to retrieve his radio, someone from behind him grabbed at his pistol.

"All this was surrounding the crowd where the.fight had broken out near the DJ," Lawson said.

When Hickman was knocked to the ground Johnson gave an audible command to spray the crowd, Lawson said .

Freshman Haslyn Howard said he was a few feet from the spray and heard no whistles or warnings.

"The lights were on and the music was off; then the DJ aske? the people to leave. There was some pushing and shovmg by some patrons of the Jam and the ·security guards got i~timidated or scared and proceeded to spray the Pit," he srud.

"People were coughing and agitated, and there was some fl!Ore pushing and shoving inside and then fighting out­side .... There was no fighting inside the Pit," he said.

Howard said officers had no control of the situation and made no attempt to ~ain control other than with the spray.

Gambrell said, "I think the bad thing about it was that none of us saw the alleged fights; the only people who saw the alleged fights were the security people."

"At the point where our officerS intervened it had be­come a heated fight," Lawson said.

"Clearly if an officer was acting inappropriately we would want to take action. In a situation like this where you had large numbers, and a fight had erupted where many people could possibly be injured, they acting according to proper police crowd procedure," Lawson said.

Lawson also said Harold Holmes, the dean of student services, and other administrators are evaluating the inci­dent and the procedures taken by the police to ensure that future events are handled as safely as possible.

Pit Jams will be suspended for a short time, which is yet unspecified, while the evaluation takes place.

However, Lawson said that does not mean there will be !lo mo~e Pit Jams. That is a big concern for many students, mcluding Parker, who emphasized their social and eco­nomic importance to the black student community.

"It is the only thing really on this campus that you see black students doing as a whole," she said.

Poteat suite unwitting host to Big Brother

A suite in Poteat House was recently home to a security sur­veillance camera. The action was prompted by repeated tampering with the suite's keycard system. While security in residence halls is important, the problem with this camera is that the residents did not know it was there.

As a result of the video strata­gem, charges have been filed against the tamperer or tamperers. The camera has now been removed from Poteat. While the incident was a small victory for our private police, it raises a much larger con­cern for students.

Students who make the university's residence halls their homes are entitled to the same measure of privacy as those who live off campus. Installing surveil­lance cameras in a dormitory with­out first consulting its residents is a horrible invasion of privacy.

Security cameras in automated teller machines, corner stores, and hotel lobbies are common, and those being watched know that they are being watched. It is under­stood, it is reasonable and it is fair. Cameras help to make these areas safer and assist the police in solv­ing whatever crimes they capture on tape.

Now imagine these same sur­veillance cameras in your home, at your door, or in your neighbor­hood: cameras placed there by your local police or your landlord -ca'ffi:eras pi;lced tpere without your knowledge or cpnsent. It sounds like something trom the novell984 or from a movie! about the KGB.

The problem Is not the motives of. the Campus, Police but. their. methods.Theuse of a security cam­ed.as a deterra,q~ to destruction is not necessarily a bad idea, but this idea should never have been put into practice without consulting the students who would be living under the camera's eye.

The difference between secur­ing and spying is whether or not the people being watched over know about it. Therefore the two cameras remaining in Poteat are somewhatlessinvasivein thatthey are not concealed, but these cam­eras were also installed without students' knowledge or consent.

These two cameras, cross­mounted to provide a view of the entire courtyard, were included as a part of the general security reno­vations of Poteat and Huffman Houses. These two residence halls were the first to undergo the secu­rity overhaul planned for all North Campus residences.

If Campus Police are going to continue using video cameras to

help them with their work (they obviously do not see a need for student,consent) they should ei­ther place a sign in the area telling people that their actions are being recorded, or at the very least, they shoulc. .nform those students who live in the area. Either of these simple measures would prevent students' privacy from being in­vaded.

A camera that residents knew about would have been as effec­tive as a covert one. The installa­tion of a video camera together with the knowledge and. consent of the suite's residents would re­sult in one of two solutions to the problem.

Either the vandal will refrain from disabling the keycardmecha­nism out of fear of being captured on videotape or he will not. If he does notsabatoge the security sys­tem, the camera has worked sim­ply by his knowledge of its pres­ence. If he does disable thekeycard system, the camera has made his guilt a simple matter of playback. In either case, the use of the cam­era has solved the problem and the residents have not found them­selves in the middle of an Orwellian invasion.

Students living on campus de­serve to be protected by security staff; they deserve to be made more secure. Vandals deserve to be brought before the school's judi­cial system. Students do not de­serve to be spied upon by hidden cameras in their dormitories.

Thecaseagainstthecovertcam­era in Poteat (and any other places it has been used before or since) is certainly more to do with the pl}.n~ ciple of that sort of surveillance than actual harm done to the resi­dents of that suite.

Due to the positioning of the camera, the potential for embarassing footage was minimal. However, if this sort of security measure is accepted by the univer­sity com_munity and becomes com­monplace, the next new technique may prove still m~re invasive. The end does not justify the means.

If evidence in a future investi­gation could be found in thee-mail orvoicemail ofastudentorfaculty member, should the Campus Po­licethenhelpthemselvestoitwith­out that person's consent?

If new and different methods of enforcement will help to make the university a safer place to live and learn, then these methods should be discussed. They should defi­nitely not, however, be imple­mented without consideration of the wishes and concerns of stu­dents.

Solutions, likeparking, ·hard ~o fin~ I have had enough. It is just ridicu­

lous -buying a $60 annual park ingpass does not in any way mean

that an individual is going to be able to find a place to park (according to the Office of Parking Management). It is like buying a piece of real estate and then maybe or maybe not being allowed access to it.

Something has got to give. I am quite certain that there are times when. those who have parking passes sim­ply cannot find a space. I know be­cause I am one of them.

I drove around for about'an hour one morning looking for a space, and finally found one in the faculty lot of the Worrel Professional Center. I was desperate and decided I would park anywhere- even in faculty lots. But that plan almost failed because there was only one space available in all of the faculty lots.

Of course, when I came back to my car later, there was a $20 ticket on it, which only added insult to injury. I got a parking ticket in my home city which cost me $5. Plus, I don't have to pay $18,000 to live there.

One of the biggest problems is people who park in the wrong places. Students of the School of Law and the Babcock Graduate School of Man­agement fill up whatever spaces are left in the Palmer/Piccolo lots in the morning, which is unfair to those who live there.

Suppose a Palmer resident had a morning dental appointment and came back to find no spaces available any-

where near her residence. It is not fair to make her park her car at the Burger King at North Point and walk so a law student can have a space in the lot of a building where he does not live.

Imagine co~ng home and finding yourdrivewayfilledwithcars.Iwould be more than a little upset.

Worrell is a major problem. Con­structing a building as huge as this one and notprovidingadequatepark­ing is irresponsible. The lot next to Worrell is always full during the day, so law and business students are forced to find spaces elsewhere.

The university must provide more parking space near Worrell. The same argument applies to this building as to the residence halls: the law and business students are compelled to be in this building and it is only fair to give them parking spaces reasonably near the building.

Additionally, faculty and staff park in student lots all the time. Can stu­dents park in faculty lots with impu­nity? Of course not. This university is not organized as a democracy.

What I do not want to see is the addition ofmoreparking spaces close to the center of campus. There is

Secrest concerts need planning, space I am beginning to make a habit of writing these

editorials requesting some sort of guidance or information. But until that moment of insight, I

am going to keep writing about policies that I neither agree with nor understand.

The intellectual climate on this campus is not deteriorating. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. Anyone who attempted to attend the Kronos Quar­tet Secrest Artist Series performance last week will agree with me.

For a long time now, some group ofthe univer­sity community members have been making the assertion that we as students are not all that intellec­tual anymore. Weareonlyconcerned with partying and doing the minimum of work required in a class. If that is the case, would these people please explain to me exactly why it is that in the middle of women's and men's Rush, for a Friday night per­formance, the information desk ran out of tickets and scores of students were turned away because there was not a seat to be found in Brendle Recital Hall?

How did this happen? You see, I was one of the lucky 80 patrons who got the chance to sit on stage with the Quartet. Not exactly the best seat in the house, but I was able to hear and enjoy most of the concert from iny vantage point.

However, what bothers me most are two major issues. First, the policy of overselling tickets for Secrest events and second, the location of these events.

I realize that most of dear ol' Wake is based on the principle that if it does not pay for itself and/or generate a profit, it will not be done here. I still remember a time in the distant past when we had

STUDENT COLUMNIST

lectures such as Jonathan Demme and concertS by Dillon Fence on campus for free. Now all the programming on campus seems to revolve around the attitude of generating revenue. This is the wrong attitude to take.

Most of us are here paying in excess of $13,000 a year in tuition. Why do we still have to be charged for cultural events to guarantee our seats? When seating at the Kronos Quartet performance became scarce, people who had not purchased their tickets were placed at the bottom of the priority seating list. Since all seats were general admission, there was no telling how many people got shafted by this policy. The lobby was packed with mostly students, faculty, and staff frantically waving their orange tickets hoping for a seat.

Why are so many extra tickets printed up? Would it not be better to tell students that while we are not guaranteed a seat at a Secrest event, all we have to do is show our ID's to gain admission?

This would reduce costs, since the ticket would not have to be printed up and also not give the students the false hope of a seat awaiting them in the concert hall.

It was not a pretty sight on Friday night witness­ing elderly people seated in the aisles and on the stage. They did not look comfortable next to us younger people. Why not tell them up front too, that their seat is not guaranteed either?

Airlines got into a pack of trouble by overselling their international flights. When all seats were

filled, ticket holders who got "bumped" v,:ere given a free ticket anywhere they wanted to go . and rescheduled on a later flight for their desti­nation.

If these events continue to be oversold, why not do something like this for those patrons who can not attend the show? Have another perfor­mance or a reception after the event, rather than flatly telling them to go home.

On my other point, why was this event held in Brendle? Usually a sell out indicates a large crowd. With Wait Chapel empty that night, I can only speculate as to why we were not in there. My first guess is the moratorium declared on concerts in the Chapel.

I know that this is probably not the right reason, since many other events have been held in there without any problems at all. It is rather unusual for the sounds of the Liverpool Philhar- · monic to drive people to tear up seats or other . forms of mischief. Since I know better thari to . believe this is the reason, I think that the plan­ners of this event did a poor job of predicting the crowd. ·

Did they underestimate· our interest? They should have realized that if Stephane Grappelli could fill Brendle, so could the Kronos Quartet. ·

I hope for the underclassmen's sake, someone : either changes the ticket policy or the planners : of the events start getting better at predicting the : size of crc;>wds. While I did enjoy reading, the : sheet muslc over the performers shoulders, I do ' not think that the Fire Marshall and the Quartet : were all that happy with the audience's seating : arrangements. ·

Student priority turned away from the door of Brendle because ushers were informed to solely allow certain people who had paid for tickets to enter. It seemed fitting for me to comment to another student who was also refused entry that an excess of $13,000 in tuition seemed to be ample payment for the performance.

were crowded with audience mem­bers.

administrators for a lack of intel­lectual and cultUral enthusiasm, they are refused admittance to a : musical performance that is ad,ver­tised as open to all members of campus.

In search of a cultural experience for my own personal benefit, I at­tempted to attend the Secrest Artist Series performance last week. Unfor­tunately, due to the overselling of tickets to people in the community, I was unable to obtain a seat in Brendle Recital Hall.

Along with many other students, I looked forward to the event all week, and was extremely disappointed at not being able to attend. Some stu­dents were required to go to the per­formance for class but were still not admitted.

It was thoroughly upsetting to be

I should also note that some faculty and staff were also unable to attend the affair.

It is disturbing to note that this is not the first time an overabundance of tickets has been sold for a Secrest Artist event. I recall a performance last semester for which chairs had been placed on the stage for viewing the event, and the steps and aisles

' ''

It is apparent that those people had a different experience than I at the performance, and some present ex­pressed that their enjoyment of the event was diminished by the over­crowding.

I should also mention that in the case of a possible emergency, the exit of all persons present would have been equivalent to a nightmare.

I solely want to express my concern that a program as valuable as the Secrest Artist Series remains avail­able to student participation and en­joyment. I find it interesting that at a time when the student body is being harshly criticized by some faculty and

I encourage those who schedule Secrest events to rethink the logis­tics involved with the event occur­ring in Brendle if the same number of tickets are sold to the commu­nity and students will be encour­aged to attend. Secrest provides a tremendous outside of the class­room expreience for all students who choose to attend.

new rules governing the rushing .;.;;;;;;,;,;~~;;..------­and pledging process for fraternities.

While the university bas always retained some control over the rush­ing and pledging process, these new rules represent a deeper form of con­trol. The premise behind the rules drastically limits how much freedom · students have in running their own organizations.

Consider the rule that forces every rushee to attend Rush events of at least five fraternities. To the commit­teemembers, theruleprobablyseemed harmless. After all, rushees should have experiences at a variety ofplaces before deciding which fraternity to join.

Regulations, however, often fail to have the intended effect. In practice, this rule has meant ·

fects academics - a claim that inci­denta1ly has never been Pt:oveh- the new rule seems to go against other principles of the university. Are the students themselves not personally responsible for their grades?

And if a student's grades are good enough to remain in good standing with the school as is currently re­quired by all fraternities before one can pledge, then why should these students be placed under stricter regu­lations than other students? Again, the SLC has decided fraternities should have different rules than other groups.

bers to solve their own prcblems is certainly a better way to equip them for the problems of the real world. In many societies, people of our.age already have their own jobs and families. Even in our own culture, we are considered legal adults. At this university. bow­ever, we are being treated more and more like children and are being denied an opportunity to grow as individuals.

As it stands, the SLC' s rules are unfair because they single out cer­tain groups on campus with extra regulations while ignoring others. What is worse, they represent se­vere encroachments on the free­dom of students to govern their own organizations. Simply put, the SLC should have little concern with fraternities as long as they

"In biology, you may have just'tests and labs to determine your grade. Biology and

"Why hasn't grading policy across the college changed to reflect the increasing quality of students admitted into Wake Forest?" he asked.

Others feel that the higherGPAs only mean that a higher caliber of student is now at the university and see no reason to change the grading systems. For example, Scholastic Aptitude Test scores also have risen from 1115 to 1207.

Robert N. Shorter, Coordinator of Humanities, said another reason why grades. have increased is the improving faculty. He said the higher grades also reflect better teaching.

"I know that members of the faculty have heard talk about the possibility of grade inflation; but have resisted it. St~dents are working hard and if I was teaching a class in which everyone did 'A' work. I would

after graduation. He said,"Many companies do require a

certain GPA before they will consider you. But they also look at things like work experience. GP A and work experience should complement each other."

Establishing a Standard

A round the country, the SAT scores and average GP As of schools have been increasing. According to

information provided by Seifert, the SAT scores of incoming freshmen at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have risen from 1056, in 1982, to 1128, in 1994. During that same time period, GPA's improved from a 2.74 to a 2.93.

Seifert's concern is that grades are increasing, while distinctions remain the same. Last May, 60.7% of the seniors graduated with academic distinctions.

He said the high number of students receiving distinction means honors are no longer as highly regarded by companies and graduate schools.

"We shouldn't be saying to over 60% of the graduating class that they are outstanding students when in fact a large percentage of them are only average," Seifert said.

Souo-c:"!': Office o'f Institution Research, VVFU Andrew Ja1:inen / Old €;old & Black ·All professors at the university

are free to determine the grading

standards for their courses. Mandating standards of uniformity would be impos~ sible.

Some departments on campus, however, do collect data on grades in an attempt to encourage standards.

Robert Whaples, professor of economics, said the economics department collects data to determine the mean pes of all the introductory sections. ':l

Whaples said, "My sense is that in our departtnents, the reasod:we collect tmd share this number is so1we can have rome uniformity." . I

Whaples said most professors in the department grade similarly. ••I do~'t think there are huge differences among professors in our department. Tbe~mes wlien they occur are when there are new professors," he said.

Though Whaples said grade inflation is a problem, he said there is little the university alone can do to combat it.

He said, "I think grade inflation is we can't solve. It's happening at other schools.

"Until recently, we have had low grade inflation. But on the job market. they see lower grades and don't realize the differ­ences. We don't want to harm our students compared to students from Virginia or Carolina," Whaples said.

Whaples did suggest some solutions to the problem.

Whaples said, ''Transcripts can be made more informative. They <:an report not only your grade but also where you fall in the distribution of grades.

"Another idea is to show plusses and minuses on the transcript. That would send more information to everybody- the students and the professors."

Whaples said, for example, students who cannot improve their grade from a B to an A may not study as hard for a final exami­nation.

With pluses or minuses, he said they would have more incentive to raise their grade.

Seifert suggested raising the academic distinction levels. In 1994, over 60 percent of students graduated with honors. In 1983, just 39.4 percent did.

Now, a student needs a GPA between 3.0 and 3.5 to graduate cum laude, between 3.5 to 3.8 for magna cum laude, and 3.8 or higher for summa cum laude. Seifert believes that cum laude should be awarded to students with GPAs between 3.2 to 3.5.

Thomas Mullen, dean of the college, said that a change in the distinction requirements might be worth considering in the future.

Mullen said, "I don't know how I would vote on that. It's possible. time has come to reconsider changes."

Mullen does not feel that the increase will affect graduates chances outside of the university. He said, "I think that it is going to be the general reputation of the school that matters."

By all accounts, the university does have an excellent academic reputation. After ranking the university the best school in the southern regional category for seven years in a row, this year U.S. News and World Report placed the university in the national category. Jennifer Fowler, a ne~s copy editor, contributed to this arlirrle.

In anticipation of Roman Polanski's up­coming film Death and the Maiden, it seemed appropriate to review Frantic,a 1985Polanski film, and Fearless, a 1993 film directed by Peter Weir, which was written by Rafael YglesiaJS, one of Maiden's co-writers.

It seemed like a good idea at first. Slim had said, reassuringly, "This is the last run we always take." In the beginning I allowed myself to be fooled by his facade of true navigational knowledge

and ability. As we be­gan tra­versing further and furtherinto the back country, a shred of doubt be-

Then carne the big whammy: he turned off of a perfectly good mogul field onto what once might have been a snowmobile access trail, but with time had become so overgrown that an albino ferret would have had trouble snaking through the snow, much less full­grown men with200-centimenter sticks strapped to their feet wav­ing metal poles in the air.

Now there is such a thing as tree skiing. This is where, obvi­ously, you ski through trees. The trees are somewhat spaced out and there is enough room to make turns and negotiate (however primitively) whatever ob­stacles-such as rocks, trees, stumps, and albino ferrets-you may encounter. . The dense forest run that we

were now following was not tree skiing, It was tree hitting. My confidence in Slim waJS waning by the minute.

So there we were. I'm in the middle of nowhere, floundering around in the snow, listening to some guy from Wilmington talk about a slope I've never heard of. It was getting dark.

The mountains of Colorado are beautiful giants in the sun but vengeful spectres in the winter night.

Earlier that afternoon, it was a balmy 25-degree day. But night temperatures were extreme enough to freeze exposed keg taps. and even cheap keg beer. Last night had been minus seven.

The beautiful pine trees of Colorado, as phorographed by our intrepid skier and Outdoors columnist, serve a dual purpose. Not only do they grace the countryside with their snow-capped majesty, they provide a convenient obstacle for foolhardy skiers to smack into, as our columnist discovered.

Have you ever wondered what happens to human flesh at minus seven degrees Fahrenheit? I was trying to put the possibilities out of my mind at the time.

Instead of backtracking to our previously known position, we kept chugging away into deeper woods.'! was convinced that we were out of bounds and would never be heard from again. Sev­enty-five years later our perfectly preserved corpses would be found and we would be exhibits in Na­tional Geographic magazine.

The powder got so deep that I sank in up to my waist. I'm telling you, there's nothing like the pros­pect of a snowy grave to brighten your outlook on the day. But I lookedaroundandeverybodyelse was in various states of agony with the snow, and I did not feel so bad.

At least we'd be together when we perished. After approximately threemilesofbushwhacking(ski­ing over, through, and under trees, rocks, and albino ferrets) we spot­ted what appeared to be a clear-

ing. It was a developed slope, a hope for surviv_al.

UnfortuiJately for me, a large ·log lay across myrouteofescape. I tried to step over it, roll under it, ski over it but I was too tired, the snow was teo deep, and the tree was too unwieldy. Vehemently cursing Slim, I took off my skis and threw them down the steep bank into the clearing.

There comes a time in a man's life where survival becomes more important than dignity and pride. This was one of those times. I stumbledandslidoutofthewoods onto a groomed slope while a ski patrol man radioed in that he had found some guys in "deep woods." "Deep woods?" What we had bee11 in was hell.

• I ' The Epicurean Englishman samples fine Italian fare at M.editerraneo

BY PAUL TOOLAN

CoNTRintmNG REVIEWER

When I was back in London recently, en­joying a quiet pint and recounting some of the delights of fine living in the Carolinas, I WaJS bluntly contradicted by an old college friend of mine.

Count Lazlo, as he liked to be known in refereDfe to his Hungarian aristocratic heri­tage, now writes for a society gossip column in one of our national dailies. He is, therefore, a most distinguished disciple of Epicurus and a man whose criticisms have to be addressed. His gist was that, fine as the local cuisine may be in a parochial area, the lack of a cosmopoli­tan influence would inevitably restrict the choice available.

Since variety is the spice of lite, his point WaJS indeed pertinent. It was in this vein that I

To provide my examinations with some rigour, I was joined at the meal by two special guests. One was an Italian-American specialist in European culture, whose very rotundity was credential enough for expertise in his ethnic cuisine. The other guest was a friend ofLazlo's from time spent together in the Bosnian war

zone, and he claimed such adventures had led him to sample cuisine from across Europe.

Thus, in such distin­guished company, I proceeded to the res­taurant, which is run by six Neapolitans. Mcditerraneocatcrs for a broad range of cus­

something due to a lack of music. In reaction to this, one of my guests offered to play his mandolin but, fortunately, was persuaded that sometimes silence has its virtues.

The two stingiest defenses in the ACC, as well as the two best clubs from the charity stripe. did not disappoint. The Deacons were held to just 44 percent shooting but limited the Cavs to 41 percent. Virginia hit a red-hot 83 percent from the stripe, but the Deacons shot a white-hot 93 percent, hitting 14-of-15.

Childress finished the game with 29 points, seven assists and just two turnovers, while sophomore Tim Duncan had 15 points, 14 rebounds and three blocks, playing in foul trouble virtually the entire way. Sophomore Ricky Peral showed some toughness, scoring

The \\\li:\cn·s basketball team faced off ''o.rain-;t ,;-!4 l·lnrida State Saturday in a n~atchup of two teams struggling for their first win in theACC. The Demon Deacons came back from a 20-point deticit in the second hall'. bU! failed to hold onto the lead in a 6R-61 defeat. their sixth in a row.

In a sloppy game totalling 30 turnovers, the Dew.:u!IS railed to capitalize on their opportunities and demonstrated lackadai­sical pia:.

The Dc:Kons lt1st the lead in the game at the i 'i -minute mark. and slid to a gradual 12-point Jcficit at the half. 31-19.

Freeman started four substitutes in the second half. hoping for more effort out of her team against the young Semi­nole squad. As the deficit quickly rose to 20 points with 16 minutes remaining in the half, the Deacons got a spark and worked their way back into the game.

"Had they (the subs) not come in and sparked us and given us an emotional lift, we wouldn · t have gotten as close as we did," Freeman said.

Two free throw conversions by Seawright tied the game at 56-56 with 4:07 remaining. A layup by Mulholland gave the team their first lead since four minutes into the first half and capped a 23-5 Deacon run. Mulholland scored eight points and Hollifield tallied six during the seven-minute rally.

The Seminoles' inexperience showed, not having led by 20 points all year, and they were unsure what to do.

While it looked at that point like the Deacons had a chance to get their first ACC win. they once again lost their focus and let the game slip away.

"We got down the stretch, turned the ball over and put people on the free throw line. That's just a lack of mental intensity," Freeman said.

In the last minute of the game the Deacons unintentionally fouled Semi­nole Allison Peercy three times, who shot 11-of-13 from the line in the game.

"We did not deserve to win this game. There's no excuse," Freeman said.

Wolfpack devours Deacons in 93-73 romp BY KAREN HILLENBRAND

AssJsi,\1':1 SI'ORIS EnnnR

The women's basketball team is still searching for their first ACC win after a 93-7 3 loss at North Carolina State last night. The Deacons drop to 7-I 0, 0-7 in the ACC and have lost seven in a row.

The Deacons held the score close in the tirst seven minutes of the game, but the Wolfpaek went on a 14-5 run to take a 12-point lead. Woltpack freshman Chasity Melvin dropped in six points during that stretch.

Melvin delivered 21 points overall in just 22 minutes of play and has been named ACC Rookie of the Week for the last two weeks.

Later in the first half the Wol!pack put together another run, this one 20-4, which opened up a 24-point halftime advantage.

State's Tammy Gibson led this run with 10 points, including three from long range. Gibson had a well-balanced performance, netting 16 points. grabbing live rebounds and dishing out

six assists in just 21 minutes of play. The Deacons were down an astonishing 51-27

at the half, due to 67 percent lirst-half field goal shooting by State.

The Demon Deacons were unable to get back into the game in the second half, and could not come within 26 points of the Wolfpack until five minutes were remaining in the contest.

North Carol ina State played all of their re­serves during that time, enabling the Demon Deacons to keep the deficit at 20 points for the remainder of the game.

The Deacons outscored N.C. State 46-42 in the second half, hut just could not keep up with the talented youth of the Woltpack. State had four players in double figures and II players scoring points in the contest.

While the Deacons shot 41 percent from the field, State nailed 53 perecent of their shots and 65 percent from three-point range.

The Deacons were outrchounded 49-34 in the contest as well.

On the bright side, junior point guard Gretchen Hollifield contributed an impressive individual performance. She tallied a game-high 23 points, 10 assists, five rebounds and two steals while again playing another 40 minutes of basketball. She shot 50 percent. connecting on nine-of-18 shots from the tloor.

Sophomore forward RacAnna Mulholland added 14 points,juniorforward Val Hodge chipped in 13, and sophomore guardS taccy Hawes notched nine points as well as a career-high three assists. Hawes went three-for-five from outside the three­point arc.

Reserve forwanlLeslie Quinn, a freshman walk­on, saw seven minutes of action and grabbed a career-high three rebounds while also getting her first blocked shot as a Deacon.

Next up for the Deacons are four straight home opportunities for an ACC win. Saturday the Dea­cons get their home streak started at Joel Coli­seum against third-ranked North Carolina at 3:30 p.m.

ule r.1pidlv :1pproaching. the event provided a 11 ckon1c· upportunity for severn! players to partie: ipatc in some early competitive match pia~.

"The purpo'e of playing these matches," said Head Co~1ch Lew Gerrard, "is to get some match play hct~1re the season begins:·

Though all four Demon Deacons managed at kaq one matc:h victory on the Lindsey l·lopkin' lndtlor Cuuns. none of them were ahk toad 1 ~"1cc he yond the tournament's third round.

Perhaps the weekend's most encouraging perfonnancccame from freshman LuleAydin. Aydin, who late last semester soliditied her position on the team's top (and nationally­ranked) doubles team with senior Dana Evans. proved in Georgia that her singles talent is also quite formidable.

Aydin won her first two matches in Athens, including a win over a seeded opponent.

Aydin began her play in Georgia against Eleonora V egliantc. After managing to squeak through the first set in a tiebreaker, Aydin closed out her opponent in the second, ad­vancing to the second round with a 7-6. 6-4 win.

The win propelled Aydin into a match with Estelle Gevers. Gever,, one of the tournament's 16 seeded participants. hac! ad­vanced to play Aydin al'ter llattening her first round opponent 6-3. 6-0.

Again. Aydin fought her way to a close

tiebreaker win in the first set. moving up on Gevers with a 7-6 edge. As in her first match. the second set seemed easier for Aydin. who finished off her opponent 6-2 in the encore set to notch her second consccuti ve straight -set victory.

The going evidently grew much tougher for the freshman in her subsequent match as Aydin was unable to manage much success against third-round opponent Jill Craybas of Florida. Craybas. the tournament'~ seconu seed, and the third-ranked player in the country. brought Aydin ·s surprising run to a close with a 6-l. 6-3 victory.

Elsewhere in the tournament. both junior Terry Ann Zawacki and senior Dana Evans advanced into the third round by stringing together straight-set victories. Evans began play in the tournament with a 6--1. 6-4 defeat of Alabama's seeded Marouschka van Dijk.

The win propelled the Deacon senior into a

second round matchup with Emma Peetz. Peetz was unable to muster as much success against Evans as was van Dijk. eventually falling to her Demon Deacon opponent 6-3.6-.,

Like her doubles partner Evans was simi­larly unable to advance beyond the tournament's third round. This time, it was Georgi::~' s sixth-seeded Michelle Anderson who put a stop to the run by knocking off Evans in straight sets. 6-3. fl-3.

Zawacki 'sc~perienccs in Georgia were very similar to those of her teammates. After dis­patching Florida State's Lori Sowell in the first round and Natasha Villarrocl in the sec­ond. Zawacki met fifth-seeded Anne Chauw of Georgia in a third round rnatchup of seeded opponents.

Like Evans and Aydin. however, Zawacki was also unable to achieve much success in her third round matt:h. falling to Chauzu 6-2.

6-1. According to Gerrard. Zawacki simply had "a bad day.''

Of the four Demon Deacons participating in Athens. only sophomore Christina Caparis was unable to win her first two matches. After drubbing Claire Kamps in her tirst round match 6-l, 6-l, Caparis was dispatched by Georgia· s Stacy Sheppard 6-3. 6-2.

Overall. Gerrard had good things to say about the Demon Deacons' performance in Athens. saying that "l was pretty pleased with the way they played."

With the exception of sophomore Maggie Harris. who is recovering from a tendonitis · problem in her shoulder, Gcn·ard pronounced his team quite healthy.

The team's competitive spring season be­gins on Feb. ll, when the Demon Deacons meet Vanderbilt and Kentuckv. Their confer­ence debut takes place ;,Jgainst r\'laryland March' 24.

Wolnen's hoops drops fourth in a row, 67-59 BY STEVE WELGOSS

SPORTS Emroa ·

Stuck in the middle of a four~game losing streak, the women's basketball team did not need to face a tough, aggressive Clemson Tiger team Jan. I 9 at Reynolds Gym. The Tigers came to Winston-Salem with a 12-4 record and needed the win to bring their ACC mark above .500 at 3-2.

The scrappy Deacons needed the victory even more, looking for thefr first win in the conference, and hassled the Tigers into committing 20 tum­overs. However, they were unable to take advantage and turn the mistakes into points, committing 21 errors of their own. This, combined with Clemson oiltshooting the Deacons 51 percent to 39 percent, led to the Dea-· cons fifth straight loss in the ACC this year, 67-59 .

Tb,e game looked solid for the Dea­cons early on, as they stayed within two points at the 10-minute mark of the first 'half. The scoring was bal­anced with freshman Carri Walker getting four points, sophomore Lind­say Seawright four and junior Val Hodge six.

Unfortunately for the Deacons they were unable to remain focused the entire hhlf and the Tigers ran off a 10-2 run in the next three minutes to open up a 26-16 advantage. . · From that point the defense stiff­ened, allowing just eight points over the final seven minutes of the half, but a rash of turnovers prevented the Dea­cons from taking a large chunk out of the lead. The first half ended with ·clemson up 34-26, but the match could nave been closer without 13 Deacon turnovers.

Hodge was red-hot in the fiCSt 20 . minutes, single-handedly keeping the Deacon offense-going with 13 points on five-of-six shooting while picking up an assist with just one turnover.

The second half opened with the two teams battling back and forth, with the Deacons slowly chipping away at the lead, finally coming within a basket at 49-47 with 10:32 to go.

Once again, though, the 10-minute markbecametheDeacons' shut~own point while the Tigers ran off a 14-0 streak to open the lead to 14 points.

With just under five minutes to play, the Deacons certainly seemed buried, but they managed to pull to-

gether for one final charge. With 1 :40 remaining on the

clock, the lead had been sliced to seven, and the crowd brought the momentum back to the Deacons' side. Sopho­more Stacey Hawes then pulled lip from the left baseline and drained her only field goal of the night, a three­pointer to cut the margin to four points.

When . guard Dory Kidd committed her third turnover of the game, the Deacons carne down on the next pos­session with a chance to cut the lead down to two. Hawes stepped to the line for a one­and-one but clanked the first shot. The Deacons went scoreless the rest of the way, and Clemson added four meaningless free-throws for the final margin.
