Zakaria to speak at Maycommencement

by Shucao MoTHE CHRONICLE

International journalist Fareed Zakaria will return to Duke to address the Class of 2012 this Spring.

Fareed Zakaria, a CNN an-chor, editor-at-large at Time mag-azine and columnist at The Wash-ington Post, will deliver Duke’s commencement address May 13, President Richard Brodhead an-nounced to a group of students Friday.

Although he earned an un-dergraduate degree from Yale

University and a master’s degree from Harvard University, Zakaria is not a stranger to Duke. He de-livered the Ambassador S. Davis Phillips Lecture in Page Auditorium in 2009. Senior Daniel Bingyou, a member of the commencement speaker student ad-visory group, said he is very pleased with the speaker choice.

“Dr. Zakaria is a renowned foreign policy adviser, an accomplished journalist and a gifted speaker,” Bingyou wrote in an email Sunday. “His global influ-ence and forward-thinking intellect will translate ef-fectively to the commencement address and should provide ample inspiration for the graduating seniors as we prepare to take the next step in life.”

Zakaria hosts “Fareed Zakaria GPS,” an inter-national and domestic affairs program viewed worldwide on CNN and is a former columnist for

Student robbed near East Campus dorms

DGHI approves two programs for DKU

by Arden KreegerTHE CHRONICLE

An undergraduate student was robbed at about 1 a.m. Sunday on East Campus be-tween Bassett and Brown residence halls.

The student was approached by two individuals who took an iPad and wallet, according to a Duke University Police De-partment release Sunday. The student was not injured, though the suspects indicated that they had a weapon.

The student described the suspects as black males, one wearing a white, hooded sweatshirt and one wearing a dark, hood-ed sweatshirt, according to the release. The suspects were last seen running away from East Campus toward Buchanan and Markham streets.

Dailey declined to give the name or year

of the student involved to protect the stu-dent’s identity.

Students and faculty received a DukeAlert notification of the incident via email after 2 a.m. and those who registered for emergency mobile updates also received a text message.

Dailey said DUPD plans to address East Campus safety concerns by concentrating more patrols in the area and working closely with the Durham Police Department to iden-tify the suspects.

DUPD will also increase the number of security officers stationed on East. Dailey said he plans to make some changes that will be less visible, noting that he could not specify what the changes will be in order to preserve their efficacy.

Faculty from Duke Global Health In-stitute have approved undergraduate and graduate-level global health programs for Duke Kunshan University.

Two new global health programs to be offered at DKU were approved by DGHI faculty Friday, DGHI Deputy Director Randall Kramer said. The three-year pilot programs include undergraduate Global Health study abroad courses and a Master of Science in Global Health. The programs are expected to start Fall 2013, though DKU is slated to open Spring 2013.

“[The programs] expand the reper-toire of programs that we have commit-ments for in China during the early stages of the campus,” Provost Peter Lange said.

This is the second set of DKU programs to gain faculty endorsement. In October, faculty at the Fuqua School of Business ap-proved a Master of Management Studies degree, in which students will spend their Spring term in Kunshan. The Fuqua MMS and the DGHI programs are pending ap-proval by Academic Council.

The undergraduate module—four courses taken in one semester—includes core classes from the global health certificate program offered at Duke, as well as a language course, Kramer said. Duke students can apply the courses toward the global health certificate, and international students receive a certificate for completion of

Bob Knight had a special message for Mike Krzyzewski when the two spoke during a prerecording of Duke head coach’s radio show earlier in the season.

“[Knight] says to me, ‘Michael... will you tell your kids to win these next three games real quick,’” Krzyzewski said. “‘I’m getting tired of saying nice things about you.’”

Knight moved a step closer to his wish Saturday as the Blue Devils beat Presbyte-rian 96-55 at Cameron Indoor Stadium for Krzyzewski’s 902nd career head coach-ing victory. The win tied the him for the all-time NCAA Division I men’s basketball lead with Knight, his mentor and former coach at Army.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Obama ad-ministration will announce Monday as much as $1 billion in funding to hire, train and de-ploy health-care workers, part of the White House’s broader “We Can’t Wait” agenda to bolster the economy after President Ba-rack Obama’s jobs bill stalled in Congress.

Grants can go to doctors, commu-nity groups, local government and other organizations that work with patients in federal health-care programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. The funds are for experimenting with different ways to expand the health-care work-force while reducing the cost of deliver-ing care. There will be an emphasis on speed, with new programs expected to be running within six months of funding.

“This will open the inbox for many in-novators and organizations that have an idea to bring to the table,” Don Berwick, administrator for the Cen-ter for Medicare said in an interview.

Kilner explains the overlooked beauty of warby Yueran Zhang

THE CHRONICLE

War can be beautiful, a U.S. Army of-ficer said Friday.

Although loss of life is often the most emphasized part of military conflicts, a truly holistic depiction of war must consider both beauty and tragedy, said Lt. Col. Peter Kilner, assistant professor at the United States Military Academy. Kilner added that the American public must reshape its understanding of war to confront the worsening crises faced by many veterans.

“Too often, powerfully tragic stories put [soldiers] on only one side.... They are afraid of being judged if they say that war has beauty,” Kilner said. “Soldiers have the belief that they fight for great calls—free-dom, dignity, defending their homeland—something pretty profound. They sense that they are willing to give their lives to something greater than themselves.”

One example of war’s beauty is the camaraderie developed between soldiers and the sense of pride and loyalty that each soldier develops for his country, he noted.

Kilner was the keynote speaker at the After the Yellow Ribbon conference this weekend, which was held in honor of Vet-eran’s Day.

The conference was organized by Mi-lites Christi—a student-run organization of the Divinity School dedicated to en-gaging the armed forces and veterans with the church—and it was dedicated to facilitating unbiased conversations about issues affecting veterans such as substance abuse, homelessness, domestic abuse, di-vorce and suicide, among others. These

issues have been growing concerns for the all of society, Milites Christi co-President Logan Mehl-Laituri wrote in an email Wednesday.

Mehl-Laituri is also an Iraq War veteran and a second-year Master of Theological Studies candidate.

In his remarks, Kilner said that in order to de-politicize and re-humanize war and veterans, people must form balanced views of war by considering the positive stories of veterans along with the more negative ones. Otherwise, the mental wounds of veterans will never heal.

“When the society listens to veterans’ experiences, it’s better to ask about the good first,” Kilner said. “Recogniz-ing the beauty made them more com-fortable to talk about the ugliness—if people only care about the tragedy, veterans wouldn’t remember any good about war.”

Jeff Nelson, a second-year student at the Divinity School, also said that it is im-portant to understand what veterans suf-fer within the larger context of the beauty and tragedy of war.

“When they come back [from war], they are automatically viewed as hero or evil,” Nelson said. “But what they need is someone who really knows what they are struggling with.”

War can offer a sense of purpose and cohesive relationships between soldiers—relationships that are impossible to expe-rience outside the battlefield, Kilner said, adding that because the public gener-ally views war only as violent, soldiers can hardly express the beauty of these rela-tionships once home.

Not only does the society neglect the

beauty of war, it also generates misconcep-tions of the tragedy, he added.

“One thing that soldiers struggle about is not that they kill people, but that they see the senselessness of war,” Kilner said. “They encounter a level of evil we will nev-er face [outside the war].”

While living in the gap between a

beautiful sense of purpose and the ugly reality of casualties, soldiers can expe-rience guilt and develop a fragmented sense of identity.

“War is noble in theory but not so no-ble in practice. Trying to make sense of evil and humanity at the same time can shatter their belief,” Kilner said.

Newsweek. He has also served as managing editor of For-eign Affairs magazine, an analyst for ABC News and editor of Newsweek International.

Beginning in March, the student advisory committee as-sisted Brodhead in selecting and evaluating potential com-mencement speakers for the Class of 2012, senior and commit-tee member Arthur Leopold wrote in an email Sunday. The committee narrowed down a list of more than 100 potential speakers to find the best group. Brodhead made the ultimate decision to invite Zakaria.

“Our criteria consisted of objective credentials, breadth of appeal and logistical availability.” Bingyou said.

The list of finalists included two notable women—U.S. Su-preme Court Justice Sonya Sotomayor and comedian and writ-er Tina Fey, Leopold said, noting that the advisory group was looking for a vibrant voice that could inspire students. Former President Bill Clinton and former football coach Tony Dungy were also strongly considered.

“It was discussed at length that recent past speakers were

dull, uninspiring and didn’t deliver a message that resonated with the ideal Duke student,” Leopold said. “Zakaria is a per-fect choice to uplift the student body and impart his knowl-edge, wisdom and humor to students entering an ever global-ized world.”

Brodhead also noted that Zakaria is a fitting speaker for Duke graduates.

“Zakaria is an outstandingly thoughtful analyst of the con-temporary global world—the world our students will be inhab-iting and shaping in their lives after Duke,” Brodhead wrote in an email Sunday. “Through his prize-winning journalism and important books, he helps us understand the new freedoms and perils, hopes and fears that are reshaping every modern society, including our own.”

After Duke’s commencement, Zakaria will travel to Harvard to speak at its graduation ceremony May 24.

Senior Christina Lieu, also a member of the advisory group, said Zakaria’s remarks at Harvard will not detract from his speech to be delivered here at Duke, given that his insights will be unique.

Zakaria is the author of several books, including “The Post-American World” and “The Future of Freedom,” which has

been translated into about 30 languages.Zakaria, who was born in India, has interviewed many of the

world’s most influential leaders, including President Barack Obama, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, British Prime Minister David Cameron and the Dalai Lama.

Brodhead said he hopes that Zakaria’s message will inspire students to live up to the challenges that the world outside Duke will present.

“Don’t try to live in a bubble after you graduate. In a world as connected as ours, there really aren’t any shelters,” Brod-head said. “Besides, if college prepares you for anything, it’s to face up to challenges and shape them in creative ways.”

Sophomore Steve Pierre-Jean, who heard Zakaria speak at his high school graduation from the Dalton School in 2010, said that in his remarks, Zakaria not-ed the particular significance of this young American generation.

“Fareed gave a great speech at my high school graduation, touching on the fact that our generation is significant in solv-ing a lot of the problems in our world and that it’s our responsi-bility to be contributing members of society,” Pierre-Jean wrote in an email Sunday.

Kerr, Canepa lead Blue Devil blowout

by Matt PunTHE CHRONICLE

The Blue Devils had no difficulties routing Radford to advance to the second round of the NCAA tournament.

Top-seeded Duke did not hold back any firepower as it outshot the Big South champion Highlanders 25-1 to win its

opening match 5-0 at Koskinen Stadium Sunday, remaining unde-

feated at home this season.In spite of Radford’s attempt to limit

the Blue Devils’ scoring chances by play-ing a one-forward formation, Duke broke through early. Sophomore midfielder Kaitlyn Kerr received a through ball on the right side of the 18-yard box from ju-nior defender Erin Koballa and dribbled toward the backline, chipping the ball over the Highlander goalkeeper to put the Blue Devils ahead.

“I just realized that they were bun-kering in a lot,” Kerr said. “I’m a high center [midfielder], so I have to get for-ward earlier and quicker when they’re bunkering in.”

Toward the end of the first half, Duke’s offense struck again as senior forward Chelsea Canepa assisted two goals in a span of five minutes. First, she found a wide-open Kerr in the 18-yard box who scored for a second time. Moments later, Canepa set up another score for two first-year players in their first minutes of NCAA tournament ac-tion. She played a cross into Audrey Gibson, whose deflected header landed at the feet of Katie Trees. The freshman fired the ball into the net for her first career goal.

“[Trees] is definitely going to be a player to watch for in the future,” Canepa said. “She’s

NO-BOWL EFFORT

by Jacob LevittTHE CHRONICLE

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — After his team’s fifth straight loss, usually loqua-cious head coach David Cutcliffe issued a terse opening statement.

“We left way too many plays on the field to win a ball game,” he said. “When you do that, it’s going to slip through your

fingers, so it’s kind of as simple as that.”

Those plays cost Duke (3-7, 1-5 in the ACC) any chance it had of making its first bowl game since 1994 as the Blue Devils fell to Virginia 31-21 in an intensely physi-cal game. The loss—and the painful re-ality that this was just one of four losses in which the team had a realistic shot to win in the fourth quarter—overshadowed Donovan Varner’s record-setting day. Varner, who caught seven passes for 132 yards and a touchdown, broke Clarkston Hines’s Duke record of 189 career recep-tions. Varner also tied his former receiv-ers’ coach Scottie Montgomery by making

a catch in his 35th consecutive game. “It means a lot to me,” Varner said of break-

ing Hines’s record. “But it’s a bittersweet mo-ment because we lost a tough game.... It defi-nitely hurts because all I’ve dreamed of since a freshman is going to a bowl game, and I never got a chance to get there.”

In a game marred by visible verbal spar-ring and physical confrontations after the whistle, which Cutcliffe euphemistically called “extracurriculars,” the Cavaliers (7-3, 4-2) were able to beat Duke at the line of scrimmage. They shut down the Blue Devils’ rushing attack and powered for 165 yards of their own on the ground. Al-though Virginia registered only one sack, the Cavaliers’ prowess at the line of scrim-mage was evident in the passing game as well, as quarterback Sean Renfree faced consistent pressure in the pocket.

“We had a number of injuries early,” Cutcliffe said. “[Starting left tackle] Kyle Hill, I will mention, was a significant injury, and he will be out for the season.”

After a tough 2-1 loss to North Carolina in the ACC championship, Duke wasted no time preparing for this weekend’s NCAA run. But after a resounding 5-0 victory over Stanford Saturday in the first round of the tournament, the Blue Devils suffered a season-ending 2-1

loss to Old Domin-ion in the quarterfi-nals the next day.

The 10th-seeded Blue Devils entered ready to face the seventh-seeded Car-dinal. Duke wasted

no time, scoring in the second minute en route to a 5-0 trouncing of Stanford to ad-vance to the next round.

“After the ACC championship, we were very frustrated with the fact that we didn’t generate the attack that we had been gen-erating,” head coach Pam Bustin said. “This week in practice, we really did work on our strength, which is our midfield.... I think the connection between our mids and forwards was exceptional.”

Junior midfielder Devon Gagliardi scored first with an unassisted strike from the middle of the circle. The rest of the first half remained scoreless despite seven shots on goal for the Blue Devils and three for the Cardinal.

The second half had a marked change in tempo right off the bat. Emmie Le Marchand struck in the 35th minute off an

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — With a 31-21 loss Saturday at Virginia, the Blue Devils fell to 3-7 and out of contention for a bowl game, failing to accomplish what

Cutcliffe claimed was one of the team’s ma-jor goals coming into the season.

“Well obviously, you always at the start

of a season want to be a bowl team,” Cutc-liffe said. “You want to compete for cham-pionships, you want to have a winning re-cord at home, you have a lot of things that can come and go as goals. But the most significant goal is to get better every week, and we’ll never let that go. Never ever.”

While Duke failed to convert a few opportunities—Will Snyderwine had a 25 yard field goal attempt blocked in the first quarter and missed wide left on a 34-yard-er in the fourth quarter—this game, and the season, have come down to a defense that cannot stop opposing offenses from making plays in crucial spots.

On multiple occasions, the Duke sec-ondary missed assignments. The score could have been much worse had Vir-ginia quarterback Michael Rocco been more accurate. During Virginia’s sec-ond to last drive of the first half, while trailing 14-7, wide-receiver Darius Jen-nings twice beat his defender over the

top for what could have been game-tying touchdown passes.

On both plays, though, Rocco overthrew his intended target by 10 yards. A key first down on the drive was secured after Rocco hit a wide-open Perry Jones for 14 on a third and eight around midfield.

The Cavaliers scored a touchdown on the drive and tied the game going into the half, but even that was only because Johnny Wil-liams failed to wrap up Kris Burd and allowed what could have been a five or six yard catch to become a 38-yard touchdown reception.

“We just had some missed assignments,” Cutcliffe said. “I thought there was a pe-riod where we got a little tired.... It wasn’t any big breakdown. It was just a matter of being where you’ve got to be.”

The Duke front seven—missing lineback-er Kelby Brown and without Jordan DeWalt-Ondijo for the end of the third and all of the fourth quarter—did not play much bet-ter. Aside from failing to get any pressure on Rocco, recording zero sacks, the Blue Devils allowed the Cavalier backfield duo of Jones and Kevin Parks to rack up 152 yards on the ground, consistently moving the chains and wearing down the defense.

The offense was not without struggles of its own. Renfree had 303 yards through the air with a touchdown and Donovan Varner—who took sole possession atop Blue Devil re-ceivers with 194 career receptions—caught

Duke cemented its dominant win with two goals in the final 10 minutes. One came from McKay Ross and the final from Le Marchand, who completed her hat trick off another Karringten pass.

The Blue Devil defense had been domi-nant all season, and Saturday’s game saw more of the same as Duke recorded its sev-enth shutout of the year. Redshirt senior goalie Samantha Nelson made five saves, and Blue Devil defenders were able to neu-tralize Stanford’s attack.

“Our defensive structure in general has been strong all season, and I think we were familiar with their methods in gaining at-tack,” Bustin said. “They have a lot of for-wards that they interchange and are pretty quick. I think our structure and preparation were able to keep their attack at bay.”

Coming off such a resounding victory, Duke was able to maintain the high intensity against the second-seeded Monarchs, keep-ing the game scoreless in the first stanza.

“We were able to play our game to-day,” Bustin said. “There were times when Old Dominion got the upper hand in the game’s tempo, but we were able to come back and regain some composure.”

The mood in Duke’s locker room fol-lowing a 77-76 victory over Belmont could be characterized by one word—relief.

For head coach Mike Krzyzewski, his 901st victory was defined not by the near-upset, but rather by the maturity his team gained via a close call early in the season.

“I’m really proud of our guys, because once the game pressure was on us we grew up a lot tonight,” Krzyzewski said. “You can’t practice a situation like that. Good teams put you in those situations and Bel-mont is a really good basketball team.”

The No. 6 Blue Devils claimed an impos-ing 16-point lead with 14:19 left in the second half following a 12-point run spurred by the outside shooting of Seth Curry, Austin Riv-ers and Tyler Thornton. But an experienced Bruin squad responded with its own run of 3-point shooting, and within seven minutes cut the Duke lead down to two.

While the Blue Devils stretched the lead back to eight with under four minutes re-maining, the unexpected pressure in the season’s opening game led to sloppy play, allowing Belmont to remain in the game throughout the final minutes. Duke al-lowed three offensive rebounds, including two off missed free throws, in a span of 50 seconds that cut an eight-point lead to four.

Three Blue Devil turnovers later, Belmont was down a single point.

“Second shots for threes and the sec-ond shots in the last few minutes off of free throws—if we had lost the game, that would’ve been the reason,” Krzyzewski said.

The adversity brought about by those self-inflicted wounds, though, allowed three players to step up into the limelight. Andre Dawkins hit a deep three with twenty seconds remaining to give Duke a two-possession lead, and Thornton and Ryan Kelly each hit clutch free throws to secure the victory.

“Thornton was great, with his two free throws and exuberant play,” Krzyze-wski said. “Andre’s shot was obviously a big-time shot and it was pure. And Ryan going up there and hitting the two free throws is just huge.”

Rivers, meanwhile, showed flashes of his explosive offensive ability, but struggled with his consistency as he adjusted to the pace of the college game.

The freshman was aggressive early, at-tacking the basket and earning his way to the free throw stripe four times in the first half. That aggression came with a price, as Rivers turned the ball over three times and had no assists in the opening half.

The second half was a different story, with Rivers shooting only two free throws after tempering his attack. He finished

verse slam of his own.The 96-55 victory was dom-

inated by moments like these, in which the veteran Blue Devil frontcourt controlled the area beneath the basket,

outscoring the Blue Hose 40-16 in the paint.Starting forwards Miles and Mason Plumlee

each scored 13 points and combined for 19 re-bounds in Miles’ first double-double since his sophomore season. Presbyterian (1-1) regis-tered only 24 rebounds as a team.

“Their inside game was tremendous,” Blue Hose head coach Gregg Nibert said. “I wish I had a zone or something else in there to stop something, but it was like going to a knife fight with a toothpick.”

The two starting big men missed only five shots between them, going 12-of-17 from the field, although they struggled mightily at the charity stripe, making only 2-of-11 free throw attempts. They displayed a wide array of back-to-the-basket post moves, keeping Al’lonzo Coleman and Jay Reynolds—their primary

Duke hangs on against Belmont

77 DUKE 76BUBlue Devils survive after blowing 16-point second-half lead

with 16 points, tied with Curry for the team lead, but did so on 3-for-9 shooting.

“That’s one thing I have to keep learn-ing,” Rivers said of his consistency. “That’s my first game as a college basketball player, to take and move forward with. I have to keep being aggressive. And it’s not just to score…. When you’ve got shooters like Ty-ler, [Andre] and Seth, I have to keep being aggressive to get my team some threes.”

Krzyzewski was happy with Rivers’ de-but, especially his defensive effort against the Bruins’ quick guards, but recognized that he has to learn how to read college de-fenses once he penetrates the lane.

“The thing he has to react to, he’s not accustomed when he drives to kick,” Krzyzewski said. “Against a converging de-fense like this, that was his biggest mistake tonight... but I thought he played well.”

It certainly was not a perfect performance for Rivers and the Duke team. But weather-ing the storm of an upset-minded Belmont squad early in the season seems to have jump-started the Blue Devils’ maturation.

And for Krzyzewski, that was the most important result of the game, and not the relief of victory.

“The only way to get mature is to play,” Krzyzewski said. “We had to be very good tonight to win, and we’ll be a lot better af-ter tonight.”

THE CHRONICLE MONDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 2011 | 5

QUOTE OF THE GAME“Their inside game was tremendous.... I wish I had a zone or something else in there to stop something, but it was like going to a knife fight with a toothpick.”

—Presbyterian coach Gregg Nibert

Indiana, which he coached to 662 wins in 29 years. Krzyzewski served as a graduate assistant under Knight with the Hoosiers in 1975 before returning to West Point to become head coach at Army.

“It’s kind of neat to have that relation-ship with him,” Krzyzewski said. “We have a very loving, strong friendship. He’s had such an influence on my coaching career. No question about it.”

Krzyzewski now owns a career record of 902-284, 829-225 in his 32 seasons with the Blue Devils. His first chance at a re-cord-breaking 903rd victory comes Tues-day against Michigan State at Madison Square Garden.

“It’s kind of hard to believe, really,” Krzyze-wski said. “We only won 38 games in my first three years. [Since then] we’ve had seasons where we’ve won almost that many.”

The Blue Devils have won 69 games since the beginning of the 2009-10 season, a feat that took over four seasons to accom-plish upon Krzyzewski’s arrival prior to the 1980-81 season.

After Saturday’s win over the Blue Hose, Krzyzewski was mobbed by his team after he finished a postgame interview, forming an impromptu celebratory huddle on the court across from the visitor’s bench.

“Whenever an individual coaching hon-or occurs, it’s because of your players and

your assistants and the infrastructure you build,” Krzyzewski said. “You’re just a re-cipient of a lot of good things then because you’re the head of it. Good players and un-selfish kids win a lot of ballgames.”

Six Duke players scored in double fig-ures against Presbyterian, which was picked in the preseason to finish seventh in the Big South conference. Ryan Kelly combined with Mason and Miles Plumlee to make 17-of-25 field goal attempts for 43 points.

Kelly led all scorers with 17 points on 5-of-8 shooting off the bench.

“[Krzyzewski] approaches each game individually,” Kelly, who helped orga-nize the on-court team celebration after the game, said. “He’s worried about our team winning. Numbers are something he’ll worry about when he’s done with his coaching career, but for now we’re just worrying about ourselves.”

The Blue Devils committed just 10 turn-overs against the Blue Hose—compared to 19 in Friday’s game—largely behind the im-proved play of Austin Rivers, who had five against Belmont, but none the next day. The freshman also had six assists against Presbyterian, a marked improvement of the type Krzyzewski is most focused on at this point in the season—even over his im-pending record-breaking victory.

“I’m not minimizing it, but [breaking the record] really will happen,” Krzyzewski said. “The development of my team will only happen right now.”

defenders—off balance down low.That pair of Presbyterian forwards also had

to contend with Ryan Kelly off the bench, who dropped a game-high 17 points in a similar dis-play of offensive efficiency. In a span of less than two minutes in the first half, the junior show-cased his versatility with a dunk, a layup and then a three-pointer on which he was fouled on and converted into a four-point play.

“We took good shots, we were strong with the ball, our guards made good passes to us and we fin-ished around the basket,” Kelly said. “It’s something we felt like we had really improved since last year.”

The strong performance on the inside mani-fested itself on both ends of the floor, keeping Coleman and Reynolds to a total of 13 points on 4-of-15 shooting, with each committing three turnovers. Coleman’s struggles were particularly noteworthy, as the forward notched 21 points in a season opening performance against Montreat.

Duke (2-0) finished with 27 points off of turn-

overs while the Blue Hose scored just eight.“The defense was the biggest thing,”

Miles Plumlee said. “I think that’s what made our offense go so well—when we’re working together on defense, we’re going to play together on the other end.”

This was in stark contrast to the team’s first game of the season, less than 24 hours prior against Belmont, in which the front court sur-rendered 40 points in the paint and scored 16 fewer. The Blue Devils received significant contributions from their perimeter players as well Saturday, with Austin Rivers, Seth Curry and Quinn Cook all posting double figures. The post players, though, set the tone for all facets of the offense with their physical play and 13 offensive rebounds.

For Duke to remain undefeated, it must continue the trend of inside-improvement against a Michigan State squad that outscored North Carolina in the paint in its season open-ing loss this weekend. The Blue Devils face the Spartans on Tuesday in Madison Square Garden as head coach Mike Krzyzewski looks for his record breaking 903rd career win.

“These two games in a row we made im-provements from where we were before that, and we’ll have another big test on Tuesday,” Kelly said. “We feel like we can get better ev-ery single day. We have a high ceiling.”

Duke fights off Cougars

by Mike SchreinerTHE CHRONICLE

In their first game of the year, the Blue Devils over-came 2,000 miles of travel and a staunch Brigham Young defense to pass a difficult season-opening test.

Sophomore Chelsea Gray led Duke in the win, scoring 13 of her game-high 15 points in the second half. No. 8 Duke trailed the Cougars early in the second period, but the Blue Devils (1-0) rallied to take the lead and eventually escape Provo, Utah with a 61-55 victory.

“We are definitely a work in progress,” Gray said. “It’s one thing to play exhibitions. It’s an-other thing to play a game after

having to get up at 4 a.m. and travel across the country.”The Blue Devils held on to the lead for most of the game

but could not shake the Cougars (0-1), who battled back ev-ery time Duke seemed to gain momentum. The Blue Dev-ils took an early 16-7 lead with 11 unanswered points, only to see Brigham Young answer with five consecutive points. Duke then went on another run to take a 23-12 lead but saw three straight Cougar baskets cut their lead to three.

Gray’s play in the second half sparked the Duke offense and was a crucial part of the team’s victory. Brigham Young twice fought to within three points late in the game, and both times Gray came up with a basket to keep the Blue Devils in control. She also hit three free throws in the final minute to help secure the win.

Brigham Young turnovers were also key in Duke’s victory—the Blue Devils scored 24 points off of 22 Cougar turnovers.

Gray led the game with six steals but credited sopho-more Chloe Wells, who had three steals herself, with helping force those turnovers.

“Chloe Wells did an amazing job of pressuring the ball, so that allowed me to get in the passing lane,” Gray said. “If she didn’t attack the guard like she did, I wouldn’t have gotten as many steals as I did.”

Duke turned it over as well, though, losing the ball 17 times in the face of a spirited Cougar defense.

“Offensively, we weren’t stellar,” head coach Joanne P. McCallie said. “We improved in the second half and improved enough to get the job done. It will be a great teaching film.”

McCallie will also work with her team on rebounding after allowing 15 rebounds to Brigham Young senior guard Haley Steed. Steed, listed at 5-foot-4, grabbed three times as many boards as the game’s next best rebounders, Gray and freshman Elizabeth Williams, who each had five.

“To see a guard get 15 rebounds—that’s unheard of. I don’t know how to explain that,” McCallie said.

Although the Blue Devil team has room to improve before their next game, Brigham Young head coach Jeff Judkins walked away from the game impressed with what he saw and considered this year’s team supe-rior to last year’s Elite Eight squad. The Cougars faced Duke in Cameron Indoor Stadium last season, where Brigham Young fell 69-54.

The Blue Devils have all week to prepare for their next contest, as they will host Auburn Friday.

Blue Devils upset ‘Noles

by Hunter NisonoffTHE CHRONICLE

The Blue Devils had just come off one of their worst losses of the season. Now they found themselves down 17-9 in a crucial third set against an even stronger op-ponent. Instead of folding, though, Duke went on a 12-0 run and took the set behind the play of Christiana Gray and Sophia Dunworth.

The Blue Devils (18-8, 12-5 in the ACC) upset Florida State (24-5, 15-1) in a five-set 25-20, 14-25, 25-20 22-25, 15-7 win at Cameron Indoor Stadium. With the win, Duke put an end to the

No. 17 Seminoles’ undefeated conference record.Despite being swept by Miami last Thursday, the Blue

Devils were able to recover and improve in one of the toughest matches of the season.

“I think we responded really well to the loss and fig-ured things out and made something out of it,” Dun-worth said. “I think we realized what an incredible op-portunity we had to take a win off of a team that hasn’t lost in the ACC.”

After winning the first set 25-20, the Blue Devils were held to a mere .030 hitting percentage in the second set. Florida State carried that momentum deep into the third set before Duke responded with the 12-0 run that would carry them to victory.

“I don’t feel that we really performed on Thursday night,” Nagel said. “I think it motivated the team and I am really proud of them for having the courage to come out and compete against them like they did today because they could have easily backed down.”The Blue Devils had to continue to fight in order to keep hold of the victory. The fourth set was back-and-forth and despite tying it up at 20, Florida State eked out a 25-22 win.

The Blue Devils maintained their intensity and re-bounded to secure a quick 15-7 win in the fifth and final set, ending the match.

The victory was truly a team effort as Dunworth, Gray, Chelsea Cook and freshman Jeme Obeime all reached double-digit kills, and Kellie Catanach setted 54 assists.

The win was an especially important one for the Blue Devils who are fighting for a spot in the NCAA tourna-ment. And with a win against Florida State, they proved their ability to handle top competition.

CROSS COUNTRY

Morgan to run at NCAA meet

by Sarah ElsakrTHE CHRONICLE

Despite their high hopes, neither the Blue Devil men nor the women were able to secure a team bid to the NCAA championship meet as they finished in sixth and fifth, re-spectively, at the NCAA Southeast Regional in Louisville, Ky. But for one Duke runner, the results were different.

Junior Madeline Morgan entered the meet confident after her performance at the conference championships, where she finished in 11th place to earn All-ACC hon-ors. She continued her streak of success Saturday when she finished in the top-10 to earn All-Southeast Region honors and become the only Blue Devil runner on either team to qualify for nationals.

“I felt pretty good coming out of ACC’s,” Morgan said. “I didn’t really know what to expect in terms of place…. I was just going to try to stay towards the front and see what happened.”

Although the race went out of the gate quickly, Mor-gan maintained a conservative pace, picking off the oth-er runners one by one as their fast starts caught up with them. When she reached the finish line six kilometers later, she had moved up to sixth place, 18 spots ahead of the closest Duke runner, senior Suejin Ahn.

Morgan was not the only Blue Devil who performed at a high level this past weekend, though. Ahn, who took 24th overall and earned All-Southeast Region honors as well, came in second for Duke. Freshmen Julianna Miller and Colleen Schmidt followed in 41st and 52nd place, re-spectively, while senior Esther Vermeer and sophomore Amanda Truelove took the last two spots for Duke.

“I would love to be going out there with my whole team,” Morgan said. “Everyone was very encouraging and… genuinely happy for me.”

None of the Blue Devil men in the 10-kilometer race were able to match Morgan’s success. Although the team finish fell short of its goal, head coach Norm Ogilvie was not disappointed with the individual performances.

“They finished right around where everyone was ex-pecting,” Ogilvie said. “We had a good day, not a spec-tacular day. We certainly had hopes that we would finish higher, but sometimes that just doesn’t happen.”

The team’s frontrunner, senior Andrew Brodeur, ran the best race of his career to take All-Southeast Region honors with his 21st-place finish. Like Morgan, Brodeur had gone into the regional meet off a strong performance at ACC’s,

MEN’S SOCCER

Duke falls in semisby Tom Gieryn

THE CHRONICLE

In tense, back-and-forth matches, tal-ent is often not the deciding factor. With plenty of talent on the field, will to win be-comes critical.

No. 24 Duke (10-7-3, 4-3-1 in the ACC) brought plenty of talent to WakeMed Soc-

cer Park in Cary, N.C. Friday night, but ultimately fell 2-1 to No. 13 Bos-

ton College (14-6-0, 4-4-0) in the ACC tournament semifinal.

In a tense playoff atmosphere, neither team was able to maintain momentum ear-ly in the match.

“Everyone’s nervous at the beginning of the game,” Kerr said. “Nobody could really get their foot on the ball and keep possession.”

Duke earned the game’s first corner kick in the fifteenth minute and provided a post-season surprise by sending senior defender Joe Pak—who had not taken a corner kick this season—forward to play the service. Un-til then, the team had scored just two goals on its 110 corners up to that point.

“The other two corner kick takers weren’t doing the job,” Kerr said, “so I had to find somebody else.”

Pak’s kick arced toward the near post, where Eagle goalkeeper Justin Luthy was unable to corral it. The ball bounced free in front of the net, where it was found by Duke freshman Nat Eggleston, who blasted his first touch off the bottom of the cross-bar and into the back of the net to give his team an early one-goal lead.

After the goal, Boston College began

to discover some offensive rhythm of its own. In the 24th minute, junior Colin Murphy received a pass from the right corner and used his first touch to play a perfect cross to the back post. Se-nior Abit Aburmad was lurking behind Belshaw, and he volleyed the service into the goal to even the score.

After the intermission, it was Duke’s turn to gain some momentum. Despite four shots and three corner kicks in the period, though, the Blue Devils could not come up with a go-ahead goal.

“They put fantastic pressure on us,” said forward Andrew Wenger, who was recently named ACC offensive player of the year.

It was also no help that the contest was Wenger’s first back at the center forward position after two games in the back, where he was moved to replace defender Sebas-tien Ibeagha. Ibeagha had received his sec-ond red card of the season Nov. 1, and had to sit the next two games as a result.

“Every time you change positions, it’s a little tricky,” Wenger said. “But I should have done better with it.”

Kerr also praised his team’s defensive play in the second half, but one lapse in was all Boston College needed. In the 65th minute, a Bekker corner kick found Medina-Mendez at the near post, and he converted. Despite opportunities to equal-ize, Duke could not find an answer for the aggressiveness of Eagle goalkeeper Luthy.

“I didn’t think that we were out-played,” Pak said. “I don’t think we completely outplayed them. It was just a matter of will, and it just wasn’t there tonight.”

going to be on the end of many goals, and this is just one of many to come. So, it was good for her to get that goal now. That’ll build confidence for later games.”

Having scored just one first-half goal in its previous seven games, Duke en-tered Sunday’s match with an emphasis on avoiding slow starts. The Blue Devils dismissed any doubts about their ability to score early in games by taking a 3-0 halftime lead.

“We’ve been preparing for this game for over a week now, so we just wanted to take it to them as soon as we could.” Kerr said.

Duke’s continued dominance of pos-session kept the Highlanders from even attempting a shot until midway through the second period.

“We pressured them so that they couldn’t get a rhythm of play and they couldn’t play the balls into their play-ers,” head coach Robbie Church said. “It made the job a little bit easier for our backs and our goalkeepers.”

Although Radford goalkeeper Che’ Brown came in after halftime as a sub-stitute to make six saves, the Blue Dev-ils made one final push to extend their lead by two.

Redshirt sophomore forward Cal-lie Simpkins scored her second goal of the season off a corner kick from sophomore forward Mollie Pathman, and Canepa rounded out her stat sheet by putting in a goal of her own in the 88th minute.

“I think we learned from our [ACC tournament] loss against Wake Forest and came out with a different attitude,” freshman forward Kelly Cobb said. “We’re making a statement to the na-tion about what we’re coming to do in this tournament.”

W. SOCCER from page 2

on one of the game’s pivotal plays as the Cavaliers’ Cam Johnson was able to beat backup tackle Takoby Cofield on the edge and force Renfree to throw off his back foot on a play-action pass to Desmond Scott. Chris Minnifield read the throw and was able to cut in front of the pass and take his interception all the way for the score, giving Virginia a 21-14 lead.

Although Duke was able to strike back on the ensuing possession, the Blue Devils had lost an opportunity to retake the lead and build momentum. After the Blue Dev-ils’ offense tied the game, however, the de-fense—which was without second-leading tackler Kelby Brown—began to wear down. It surrendered points on Virginia’s next two possessions giving the Cavaliers a ten-point lead. Still, the offense had chances, but dropped passes and a missed field goal prevented Duke from closing the gap.

“I thought there was a period we got a little tired,” Cutcliffe said of the defense’s second-half struggles. “It wasn’t any big breakdown. It was just a matter of being where you’ve got to be.... I’m not talking about just offense [that missed out on op-portunities to make big plays]. Both sides of the ball you leave some plays on the field, and you get beat.”

seven passes for 132 yards and a score.But even they came up short at

times. Varner had a few key drops, including a potential touchdown pass with just over nine minutes left and Duke down by 10. And Renfree, on the first drive of the second half with both teams knotted at 14, tele-graphed a pass intended for Desmond Scott that Chase Minnifield stepped in front of and returned 54 yards for a pick six.

While the aerial was effective against the Cavalier secondary, Duke failed to establish any semblance of a rushing attack, gaining only 34 yards on 29 carries. Duke consistently faced third-and-longs—needing over five yards, on average, on third down—because of short runs on first and second down. The result was 6-for-18 on third down conversion attempts.

Regardless, 21 points could have been enough with a stronger defensive effort. But the defense, which ranks 11th in the ACC in both scoring and total yards allowed, could not stop the Cavaliers when they needed to.

With two games left, though—at home against No. 21 Georgia Tech this Saturday and at North Carolina Nov. 26—Duke still has a chance to end its season on a positive note.

“We want to play our best two foot-ball games the last two games of the year, and we’re capable of doing that,” Cutcliffe said. “Character is a willingness to prepare, it’s a willingness to be where you are supposed to be, doing what you are supposed to be doing, as well as you can do it. Period. And that’s why our team has character, and I will always be-lieve in them.”

where he also took All-ACC honors. He was the only Duke runner to break into the top-25 at the Regional meet, but his teammates junior Domenick DeMatteo, senior Stephen Clark and sophomore Brian Atkinson also turned out strong performances, all finishing within two seconds of each other. Freshman Morgan Pearson finished just 12 seconds later at his first NCAA Regional meet.

“We went out there and tried our best,” Brodeur said, “but sometimes your best just isn’t enough.”

of the game. The Monarchs opened the scoring in the 41st minute of the second stanza with a shot from Rebecca Condie off a penalty corner.

Duke responded with a goal from junior Mary Nielsen 11 minutes later off a penalty-corner assist from senior Rhian Jones.

Neither team was able to break through until Old Dominion notched a goal with just 7:20 left in the game. The Monarchs earned a penalty corner late in the second half and made several passes to Kelsey Smither who set-up a pass to Kati Nearhouse who netted the game-winner, ending the Blue Devils’ season.

editorial

The Wall Street Journal’s great editorial writer Vermont Royster once quipped that any-one who picks up the editorial pen cannot hope to be more than “professional amateur” who “is rarely an expert on anything” but “is forced to learn a little about many things.”

Royster was right on one account—anyone who casts a wide intellectual net will be drawn to editorial writing. But what gives editorialists and their writings vim and vigor—and what Royster had in spades—is effusive passion. The best edito-rial writers have the sort of devil-may-care attitude that calls them to write just what they think, to clash argumentative sabers with the world around them and to press their own transient but in-

tentional marks onto the com-munities they live in.

All this is why we’ve put down our own editorial pen today: to invite anyone stirred by Royster’s remarks to apply

to join the Edito-rial Board for the remainder of the

2011-2012 academic year.The Chronicle’s Editorial

Board became independent from the rest of the paper in 2006. We give pride of place to this independence: Our only bias is toward the force of the better argument. The Board meets twice a week to lay out and debate its arguments. Majority opinion decides where we plant our rhetorical fl ag, and individ-ual members write editorials in turn. From behind the windows of 201 Flowers, we argue about—and occasionally change—every

part of Duke that matters to us.We have taken Royster’s

maxim to heart this year. So far, our unsigned editorials have exposed heavy-handed student conduct policies, challenged the basis of Duke’s expansion abroad and criticized students and administrators alike for veering wide off the road of rea-son. The topics we have lined up for the rest of year promise to generate even more kinetic discussions.

Editorial writing does not suit the brash, but we do like to swing sensible haymakers. The arena of campus discourse is always looking for new contend-ers and—if you suffer from an excess of passion, panache and good sense—you will enjoy this fray more than you know.

I’m a leader and I can prove it

Like all desperate seniors, I’ve spent a lot of time during the past few months interviewing for ways to feed myself. I can now confi dently state that ev-

erything you need to know about interviewing can be expressed in three words: Be a leader.

That’s because your inter-viewers are going to ask if you are a leader, and they want you to say “yes,” and mean it when you say it. You wouldn’t lie to someone from McKin-sey, would you? That would so not be quality.

Problem is, not all of us are traditional leaders. Sure, it’s easy for the DSG president or the First Comrade of Occupy Duke to show that he or she is a leader. But how do the rest of us prove to our interviewers that we have what it takes to present a PowerPoint and/or pitch, like, six tents?

The last time I formally led anything was during my term as Premier of the “No Girls and Also No Tyler’s Little Brother Club.” And even that didn’t go so well. Only 90 minutes into my reign, I was ousted in a coup orchestrat-ed by Jason Fitzwilliam. Fitzy turned my deputies against me by promising all of them at least two boxes of Gushers. Don’t talk to me about those Gushers.

Anyway, instead of getting all bitter about my Per-ryesque inability to outmaneuver my competitors, I’ve come up with three creative ways to be a leader that don’t require you to be voted for or have any kind of cause. 1) Shape campus discourse

A few weeks ago, an administrator—yes, an actual administrator—told me that he had read one of my col-umns. When I asked him which one he read and if he liked it, he seemed reluctant to pinpoint a specifi c piece. “They’re all interesting,” he said. I just had to know which of my columns this distinguished fellow liked, so I pushed him. “The one about Occupy Duke,” he said. I tried to tell him that, at that point, I was the only columnist who hadn’t written a word about Occupy Duke. But before I could get that out, he had darted across the room to talk to another actual administrator.

This exchange convinced me that I needed to write something about Occupy Duke, which I did. In so doing, I did more than just shape campus discourse and act as a voice for students. I bent campus discourse to my will and told students what to think. My column even got Facebook recommended by a few people. And we all know there’s a direct correlation between how many recommends you have on The Chronicle website and how much of a leader you are. 2) Lead your friends home

The single most heroic moment of my life is the time I carried a buddy of mine home from a pub. We were studying abroad in England, and I vaguely recall thinking about how this scene—him slung over my shoulder, saying he just wanted to go home—looked like something from a WWII movie. Except that my dear friend spent most of the walk back to our digs belting out a poorly memorized a cappella version of “Candle in the Wind.”

“Like a handle full of gin … ”Great leaders always stay a tad less drunk than their

friends. Well, except for Winston Churchill. 3) Eff leading, get money

Get a job with a famous company, preferably the kind of company you can get rich working for. You could also consider working for a company with great “exit opportunities”—that’s another way of saying “you’ll eventually get rich if you work for us and avoid getting indicted.”

Other people are probably better at telling you how to go about doing this than I am, but here’s one tip I can give you: Once you start working for this kind of com-pany, just shut up and do as you’re told for 100 hours each week. What, you think you make money by disobeying the people who have the money? This isn’t “The Social Net-work,” kid.

If what I just described doesn’t sound like “leadership” to you, you clearly don’t understand what your interview-ers are asking for.

Capitalism’s last laugh?Last Wednesday marked the 22nd anniversary of

the fall of the Berlin Wall. That this auspicious date has come and gone with such obliging unob-

trusiveness would seem to belie its status as the most signifi cant political-historical event of a young man’s lifetime—con-fi rmation, perhaps, that the petty pace of time trivializes history itself. But this glib explanation is not and cannot be the whole story; for the annual national ca-tharsis that takes place on Sept. 11 speaks favorably to our persistent capacities for commemoration and refl ection.

Indeed, the specter of Sept. 11 seems now to occupy so central a place in our consciousness that it fully exhausts such capacities, to the point of eclipsing the famous Nov. 9 triumph in Berlin, which Europeans sometimes demurely refer to as “our 9/11.” To a certain extent, this subordination is justifi ed. If the fall of the Berlin Wall symbolically marked the end of the Cold War, the fall of the twin towers marked the beginning of the War on Terror. Communism is a settled issue. Terrorism is the defi n-ing problem of our generation. No use then in refl ect-ing seriously on the Berlin Wall. This, of course, de-pends crucially on how one interprets the events of Nov. 9, 1989.

By 1961, the year that the wall’s construction began, some 2.5 million residents of East Germany had left for the freedom and opportunity available in the West. It had become clear at the point of the construction of the wall that neither East Germany, nor the oppres-sive ideology that governed it was sustainable without forceful confi nement. As long as people could choose, they chose to leave. The collapse of the Berlin Wall therefore marked the hard-earned political defeat of a system that had years ago openly proclaimed its moral bankruptcy before the world. Many optimistic observ-ers of the past two decades have pointed out that, just as the world’s most oppressive ideology translated in the end to both a political and an economic failure, so too was it that the freest nations in the world were generally the wealthiest—prosperity and fl ourishing, capitalism and freedom, went hand in hand.

Although there are very few, even in the academy, absurd enough to defend the horrors of the Soviet sys-tem, the “capitalist” alternative appears increasingly un-attractive and untenable. With the dramatic fi nancial developments of the past year, free markets would seem to have failed the free societies that host them. Con-versely, we are forced to confront the grotesque spec-tacle that regular offenders in the area of human rights are experiencing unprecedented economic growth. The defeat of Soviet communism, therefore, does not equate to the victory of free market capitalism, either in a material or in a moral sense.

If we in the West are neither capitalist nor commu-

nist, then what are we? Must we not have an answer to this in order to effectively defend ourselves against ter-rorism? In a more profound sense, must we not answer

this question to decide whether or not it is even worth defending ourselves? We are told that the “Islamists” attack us be-cause they despise our way of life. The unspeakable irony here is that, to the ex-tent that we know what our way of life is, we rather despise it ourselves! This rest-less dissatisfaction exhibits itself power-fully in movements as diverse as the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street.

The existential angst of the West (and the modern world more generally) runs

far deeper than mere matters of economics or politics. It is nonetheless instructive to recall the popular phi-losopher Slavoj Žižek’s recent remark that the Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street and the emergence of Si-no-Singaporean capitalism collectively indicate, “The marriage between capitalism and democracy is over.” Indeed, the behavior of many Occupy Wall Street par-ticipants exhibits all the destructiveness of an insecure child of divorce scrambling for the attentions of an abu-sive stepfather. In such cases pity rather than derision is the appropriate response. For what can one expect of a generation for which materialism and consumerism largely stand as the only viable modes of life? The sad irony is that some of the most sincere (and sometimes even noble) attempts to combat these characteristics merely serve to show just how deeply ingrained they re-ally are.

Despite the economic collapse, the young demo-graphic of Occupy Wall Street enjoys a far higher (material) standard of living than their peers during virtually any other period of history. They are not the starving homeless, but rather middle-class (mostly white) children with MacBooks demanding forgiveness for student loans. They seem to desire all of the latest mind-numbing tech gadgets without the trouble of hav-ing to truly earn them.

Talk about income inequality is fashionable and fre-quent. As an actual matter of social justice, this is surely warranted. But can we at least admit that vilifi cations of caviar and private jets, fair as they may be, would not have nearly their current moral purchase if our society cared a little less about such trivialities? I can’t help but get the sense that much of the current dissatisfaction with capitalism has to do, not with its cultivation of ma-terialism and consumerism, but rather with the fact that it has not delivered on our ever increasing consumerist demands with suffi cient promptitude and abundance. Free market or socialist, ours is a time that has forgot-ten the meaning of the word “priceless.”

Is your campus organization interested in writing a rotating-author column?

“This kind of crime is very hard to in-tervene,” Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta said. “It’s obviously a crime of opportunity.... I know how hard it is to identify the particular areas that one can increase security around because crimes like these can happen almost anywhere.”

Muggings are one of the more common crimes that happen on and around campus,

Moneta said. He added that the University is staying in touch with the student who was robbed in order to provide continued sup-port after the incident.

Freshman Addison Navarro was walking on the East Campus Main Quadrangle at about 1 a.m., though she said she did not notice a disturbance.

“I was walking on the sidewalk, and I was on the phone, so I wasn’t really looking around me,” Navarro said. “But I didn’t see anything or hear anything either.”

the program. DKU will offer the mod-ule once a year.

“The undergraduate program would target Chinese undergraduates who want to spend a semester studying global health and Duke undergraduates and un-dergraduates from other U.S., European and Asian universities interested in a study abroad opportunity,” Kramer wrote in an email Sunday. “This will provide a diverse student body and a rich global context in which to study global health.”

The master’s program is identical to Duke’s Master of Science in Global Health program. Both involve the same courses and fieldwork requirements, Kramer said. The program targets Chi-nese and other Asian learners.

“We expect that applicants to the mas-ter’s program will include researchers, policymakers, advisers, medical doctors, re-cent bachelor graduates and students plan-ning to pursue doctoral studies in a global health-related discipline,” Kramer said.

Overall, DGHI anticipates that ap-proximately half the students enrolled in the programs will be from China and half from other countries, Kramer noted. In the first year, DGHI plans to enroll 30 stu-dents in the undergraduate program and 20 in the master’s program.

DGHI faculty developed the programs while considering conversations with fac-ulty, administrators and students from numerous Chinese universities. Kramer noted that Duke is already collaborating with Fudan University, Peking University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Wu-han University—DKU’s legal partner in China.

“We already offer a two-week global health diploma program at Peking Uni-

versity each summer,” Kramer said. “Hav-ing a physical location in China at DKU will enable DGHI to further grow those collaborations.”

In 2013, DGHI also plans to estab-lish a Global Health Research Center at DKU, Kramer said. The center will em-phasize three thematic areas—chronic disease, health systems and environmen-tal health.

“This will provide a research hub to deepen our existing research collabora-tions with several Chinese universities,” he said. “The center will support the re-search activity of DGHI faculty residing in Kunshan as well as faculty visiting from Durham.”

DGHI Director Michael Merson, who also serves as the interim vice president and vice provost for the Office of Global Strategy and Programs, noted the impor-tance of the center for students.

“[The center allows] us the oppor-tunity to expand our efforts to provide education in global health to students from China and other countries around the world, consistent with our [DGHI]’s mission of educating and training future leaders in our field,” Merson said.
