It was love when the world first got its hands on two sister Web sites dealing with the progress and sometimes failure of mod-ern relationships.

Robert K. Elder, a Medill adjunct profes-sor, was looking for a “fun and frivolous” getaway when he decided to found two Web sites devoted to sharing stories of love’s heart-warming beginning or its tragic end. Soon after, McCormick junior Doug Peter-son answered an ad Elder placed on-line for a web designer. A duo was born.

Neither of them could have ever predicted the Web s i t e s ’ i m me d i a t e success, Elder said.

It has been a little more than a month since Elder and Peter-son launched the Web sites, yet they have al-ready had more than a qua r ter of a mi l l ion v iews, combined with 60,000 visitors in the first three days a lone. They have had hits from all 50 states and more than 100 countries worldwide.

“The Web sites got so big, so fast.” Elder said, “Over-When is a runaway hit.”

The sites’ premises are sim-ple: Those who enjoy gushing about their lovers and hook ups are typical Love-When posters. Conversely, those who find they need a space to vent after a rough break-up log onto OverWhen. The stories on OverWhen are often hilarious: “It was over

when … I realized that I absolutely d e t e s t e d t h e s h a p e o f h i s head.”

T h e W e b sites have been steadily gain-ing popularity s i n c e t h e i r l a u n c h e s . B o t h r e -

c e n t l y captured the atten-

tion of movie director Kevin Smith, who Tweeted that OverWhen is an

“addictive site.” Discussions of the humorous posts at OverWhen have since been given a time slot on the syndicated radio show John-jay and Rich.

Elder said the sites are a unique endeavor because students and professors usually

team up for research and not for business. The success of the Web sites, Peterson said,

is due to a lot of “blood, sweat and tears.”

The Web s i t e s a r e open to any-one who has e v e r h a d h e a r t b r e a k a n d , E l d e r jokes, “anyone who has ever dared to date me.”

Since t heir launches, Over-W hen has gar-nered relat ively more h it s t han LoveWhen.

“ Yo u s h o u l d s t r i ke out more than you should get home runs,” Elder said.

Us e r - ge n e r a t e d Web sites like Over-

When and FMyLife.com have become pop-ular time-wasters for teenagers and young adults.

“They’re hilarious. They’re great for when I’m bored,” Bienen-Weinberg fresh-man Vivia Chengshi said. “You can kind of relate to them and sometimes you just ... can’t, which makes them really funny.”

Elder is currently looking for assistants and offering internships in web-design. Since being “inspired by this little corpora-tion,” Peterson has launched his own Web site devoted to custom web and creative de-sign.

A two-year effort to research and display the history of influential women in Evanston is ready to be unveiled at the Evanston His-tory Center next year.

The Evanston Women’s History Project is a collaborative, multifaceted endeavor to build curriculum, increase tourism and re-ceive a federal designation as a women’s his-torical district, said Rebecca Cacayuran, Ev-anston Community Foundation’s director of development and communications.

“The designation would ... put it on the map so tourists can know that Evanston is a

great historical destination,” Cacayuran said.The project will debut in March — Women’s

History Month— and will include an exhibition at the Evanston History Center, tours, a women’s history trail and a lecture series, said Lori Os-borne, the project’s archivist and coordinator.

Organizers said they want to make the project a long-term success.

“We are hoping it’s not just a one-time thing,” Osborne said. “We are hoping to develop curric-ulum for schools to use with these women’s sto-ries and a girls’ leadership project. We hope it has a life after the main research is done.”

The project is a collaborative effort involving the Evanston History Center, the Frances Wil-lard Historical Association, the Evanston Public

Library, the Young Women’s Christian Associa-tion and the Woman’s Club of Evanston.

Much of the project’s funding came from the Evanston Community Foundation’s Fund for Women and Girls, Cacayuran said.

Vickie Burke, a former president of the Wom-an’s Club and one of the donors and fundraisers for the project, said she had toyed with the idea of a women’s history project for some time.

“It’s important to not lose the history,” she said. “It’s an incredible women’s history in that Evanston seems to always have attracted strong, proactive women, and it continues today and that’s something that should be celebrated, noted and used to establish leaders for the future.”

Female Northwestern students have long

been a part of the history of Evanston, Osborne said. For example, three NU sorority sisters who graduated in the 1930s and lived in Evanston started the first radio soap opera, called “Clara, Lu and Em.” The program featured the women playing gossiping housewives.

Project organizers said they hope to com-memorate this and other pieces of Evanston women’s history.

“What will have the biggest impact is the large number of women who will be docu-mented,” Burke said. “It will be unbelievable when that mass of information is made avail-able.”

University President Morton O. Schapiro shared his plans for increasing diversity, the future of financial aid, and the identity of his favorite band with students and faculty at a LiveWired conversation Wednesday night, the first of its kind to occur at any university.

As the kick-off to inauguration weekend, the “Conversation with President Schapiro” held in Norris University Center, allowed stu-dents to participate online or in person. About 50 students attended in Norris, laughing, ask-ing questions or doing their homework while Schapiro described his discovery of John Leg-end’s music or how he attempted to virtually paint The Rock.

Andrea Rosenkranz, president of North-western Class Alliance, and Claire Lew, ASG’s director of public relations, moderated the discussion.

“We’re doing this because President Scha-piro really believes in connecting with under-graduate students,” said Lew, a SESP junior. “There are 8,000 of us here, and we can’t al-ways fit in one room so having this LiveWire chat allows us to get to know each other better.”

Before opening questions to students, Lew and Rosenkranz asked Schapiro his reasons for coming to work at NU.

“This is Northwestern? I thought I was at

University of Chicago,” he said, jokingly. “(Northwestern’s) a great school, fabulous stu-dents and an amazing research profile,” Scha-piro said. “It’s one of the great schools in the world, so why not?”

The chat featured light questions and deeper ones like his plan to help students with financial aid. Schapiro said he cannot wait to get his arms around the financial aid packages at NU.

“We’ve been tweaking that formula, mak-ing it much more generous, so that the loan burden for people who graduate with loans is much less than it’s been throughout private higher education until recently,” he said.

One question taken from an online partici-pant asked about Schapiro’s plan for increas-ing student diversity.

“The easy part is you can recruit a diverse population, but the real thing is what happens when they get here,” he said. “How do you create a single community where everyone feels it’s their community?”

To conclude the session, Rosenkranz and Lew asked Schapiro about his favorite movie, book and band.

“I was an enormous fan of the Grateful Dead,” he said. “I saw the Dead about 20 times, and there was never another group that touched me the way the genius of Jerry Garcia did.”

The origin of the live web chat came through The Herson Group, a company spe-cializing in university events for schools such

as Yale and Cornell universities. MJ Her-son, principal of the Herson Group, said he tried to duplicate the experience of a live event.

“Northwestern is the first one to really have the guts to do it,” he said. “When they came to us to work on the inauguration, we knew about Medill and the Communica-tion school, and we like to show rather than tell. So it seemed like this was the per-fect match.”

Rosen k ra n z , a Weinberg junior, said she thought the event was a success.

“We had a great student turnout, and peo-ple were laughing and cheering,” she said. “From the (online) questions coming in, it seemed there were plenty of people online.”

Weinberg senior Anna Kelly said she at-tended the event after stumbling upon it while at Norris.

“I thought he made some good points about how he wants to change campus, and I

was really impressed with his visions,” she said. Lew said she wants to have more LiveWire

chats take place with Schapiro.“With so many students on campus, I’m

sure he’d love to go around campus and have one of these chats,” she said. “But it’s not some-thing you can do physically, so being able to do it via LiveWire chat is just awesome.”

Student harassed through text messages

A Northwestern student was harassed by an unknown man over text messages last week, police said.

The girl received a text message from an un-familiar number containing an image of a penis last Thursday night, University Police Deputy Chief Dan McAleer said. She deleted the image.

After receiving a second message from the same number Tuesday, the student contacted police. The message contained an image of a white man with a tattoo on his neck, McAleer said.

A police officer called the number and spoke with a man, but the man hung up when the officer told him police were investigating the text messages. The officer redialed and left a message that all further contact with the girl should cease.

The case is closed unless the man makes further contact.

Trespasser does his business in chapel

A trespasser defecated and urinated in Al-ice Millar Chapel sometime in the past six days, police said.

An NU staff member found someone had defecated, urinated and possibly vomited in a stairwell in Alice Millar Chapel, 1870 Sheri-dan Road, on Monday morning, McAleer said. A bag hanging on a stairway rail also con-tained defecation.

The staff member told police someone had rearranged the bookshelves in a room con-nected to the stairwell. McAleer said the tres-passer may have slept in the room because a pillow and cardboard boxes were also found.

The staff member had last been in the area around 2 p.m. Friday. Although anyone could access the room, McAleer said, the en-trance will now be secured.

Police are still investigating.

The aftermath following Iran’s disputed election last June was watched by much of the world online. YouTube clips showed Ira-nian citizens holding mass demonstrations in the streets of Tehran, and Twitter feeds streamed news of policy brutality and voter fraud.

But Roger Cohen, a columnist for the New York Times and In-ternational Herald Tribune, didn’t need to watch any YouTube clips. In the 10 days following the Iranian elections, he witnessed the protests firsthand.

Cohen chronicled his experi-ence during the Iran protests in a lecture called “A Revolution in Crisis: Iran after June 12” at the McCormick Tribune Center Fo-rum Wednesday night. He told an audience of about 100 people that the protests were a transfor-mative process for Iranians and that they have emerged “ready for democracy.”

“This was an immense cross-section (of Iranians), and they were united by one thing,” he said. “Not that they wanted to overthrow the Islamic Republic — although many of them did — but they wanted their votes counted. It was very simple.”

The talk was the first in a two-part lecture series sponsored by the Roberta Buffett Center for International and Comparative Studiesto discuss Iran’s re-cent political upheaval. The second part, set to take place Nov. 5, features a lecture by Haleh Esfandiari, an Iranian-American scholar and writer who was arrested in Teh-ran last year on false charges and incarcer-ated in Evin Prison, notorious for holding po-litical prisoners.

Cohen’s lecture was rife with personal ac-

counts of tragedy and courage, and here-called Iranians he met during the protests. One student he spoke to during a mass dem-onstration talked to him about Iranian Presi-dent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s attempts to suppress the protests.

“There was no end to this crowd; it was

quite simply one of the most moving things and powerful things in its dignities I’ve ever seen,” Cohen said. “Ahmadinejad had gone out and called out anyone who hadn’t voted for him ‘hooligans and dust,’ I asked one young student what he felt, and he said to me, ‘We may be dust, but we will blind him.’”

Cohen also shared his opinions on a range of political issues regarding Iran, particularly America’s relationship with the Middle East-

ern country.“The U.S.-Iranian relationship is psy-

chotic — with no other nation on Earth does the U.S. have so complete or elaborate a non-relationship,” he said.

But Cohen’s experience in Iran remains an emotional topic for him, as he found the

brutality “hard to bear.”“I’ve written and thought a lot

about Iran this year; this wasn’t really planned,” Cohen said. “My obsession is intellectual and emo-tional. Iran crushes people with its tragedy.”

Weinberg freshman Aleah Papes said she found the lecture “informative,” but she worries college students aren’t tuned in to current events regarding Iran.

“(Cohen) was such an expert,” she said. “I think a majority of students aren’t really paying at-tention (to Iran).”

For other students, the level of emotion Cohen displayed during the presentation opened their eyes about the conflict.

“It’s different from reading one of his columns,” Weinberg sophomore Neal Emery said. “Where his columns might be more journalistic, I really liked hearing him respond because you could see and hear how he felt.”

Though the influx of footage shown via Twitter and YouTube provided the world with a better understanding of the hysteria that

enveloped Iran post-election, for Cohen, jour-nalism is more than posting short tweets online.

“For all the power of Twitter and new hy-brid journalism that builds on images and im-pressions of citizen journalists, a void has been left from Iran’s banishment of foreign press,” Cohen said. “The basic truth gets lost — that to be a journalist is to bear witness.”

Economics major Li Jiang isn’t just studying money; he’s helping to rake it in.

The Weinberg senior is one of the co-founders of Campus Solutions, a student-run storage company exclusive to North-western. Since its founding in 2007, when the company served 200 customers, its base has grown to nearly 800.

Now the business is recruiting students and has some plans in the works for fur-ther expansion.

“We’re focusing on storage and shipping right now, but we can expand throughout the year,” Jiang said. “We’ll try to find voids on campus, and then create services to fill those voids.”

The staff of Campus Solutions has re-cently been busy bouncing around ideas for new services, such as delivering wa-ter bottles and other dorm essentials to students. The overall goal, however, is simply to increase the scope of the busi-ness. Last year, Campus Solutions in-creased its revenue by 90 percent and its customer base by 40 percent, leaving the company in a good position for expan-sion.

“We’re trying to expand our customer base as much as possible,” said Nancy Dong, a Weinberg sophomore and one of the company’s 14 staff members. “Our name is Campus Solutions because we’re trying to look for ways to help students on campus.”

During this week’s recruiting sessions, the company looked for five to seven “self-motivated” students who were interested in small business and entrepreneurship, Jiang said.

“Our small-term goal is to add people to our company, the mid-term goal is to expand within NU and our long-term goal is to expand to other campuses,” he said.

Weinberg sophomore Christina Prin-gle, who stored with Campus Solutions last summer, is confident the company can handle expansion.

She said if she needed storage services again, she would use Campus Solutions because “it’s so convenient.” Medill soph-omore Lydia Zuraw also said she had a positive experience with Campus Solu-tions.

Employees of Campus Solutions said they regard the company they have built as more than just business.

“I never work for the pay,” Jiang said. "I do it because it’s like a family and I have a fun time running it. The most im-portant value of the company is education, not money.”

NU box company to expand

percent of 1,413 graduates surveyed in 2008.

But there is a flip side to the post-graduate job search.

“For last year’s market it was a huge ad-vantage to think more broadly,” Dunlap said. “We actually talked to students whose first choice job wasn’t available, but they were excited about new things they could qualify for.”

Students need to remember that “nobody ever retires from their first job,” Dunlap said.

The expectation that students’ majors will determine their careers was the topic of dis-cussion at Wednesday’s Ask Big Questions fo-rum.

American Studies Prof. William Haarlow, who led the discussion, said students shouldn’t see their college degree as a definite means to one end.

“One of the things that is difficult to ap-preciate as an undergraduate is that you have the rest of your life to be in the professional world,” Haarlow said. “With education, you

can develop an appreciation for things — like a piece of art. You can’t get that anywhere else.”

Dunlap added that most NU graduates face specific challenges when they apply for their first jobs out of college. For example, some students need help refining their ca-reer search, while others are too quick to limit themselves to one profession.

“For students who are heavily focused on one area, like I-banking or consulting, they need to expand their search,” Dunlap said. “Students with a general liberal arts degree are more open as a starting point, and the challenge is focusing it more.”

Janna Dons, who graduated from Medill last spring and spent months trying to land work at a magazine, expanded her job search to include public relations, which she said had been her back-up plan since her first day at NU.

The week she graduated, Dons was hired for a paid, three-month web internship at a Chicago non-profit. The pay isn’t great but it is “enough for the bills,” she said.

Dunlap said the percentage of graduates

employed includes students who accepted temporary internships, volunteer work or jobs with programs like Teach for America. And while overall employment declined for the class of 2009, she said more graduates found work volunteering, interning or teaching last year than previous years.

Medill ’09 graduate Patrick St. Michel is teaching English in Japan as part of an ex-change program, through which he is studying Japanese for the first time. He is contracted for two years and said he is not yet certain what he wants to do afterwards. Many of St. Michel’s friends are also deviat-ing from their original post-graduation plans, he said.

“If you are going to try something off the beaten path, this is the time to do it,” said St. Michel, a former DAILY staffer. “I defi-nitely think the whole job market and econ-omy situation adds a lot of unwanted pres-sure. It might make the decision better knowing that you are kind of getting away from that.”

It’s a Friday afternoon, and school’s out for the weekend. Where will Evanston’s youth be tonight?

If Timothy Barfield is able to “turn a dream into a reality,” they’ll be skating around a brand new roller rink.

Barfield, a transportation coordinator at New Trier Township High School in Win-netka, Ill., said he hopes to open a rink in Ev-anston. Though he said it would benefit resi-dents of all ages, his focus is on providing a “safe haven” where children can have fun.

“I’ve been working with kids all my life,” Bar-field said. “I know (some) are scared to go out and enjoy being a kid, and I think a roller skating rink is the ideal setting for them to do that.”

One of Barfield’s goals for the rink is to re-duce the influence of gangs and violence on children, he said.

“The younger generation can be so barbaric,” he said. “There are kids killing kids, and nobody’s doing nothing about it and nobody’s caring about it. We need to create some type of activity for

these kids to give them some hope. We’re doing a good thing for humanity with this.”

Barfield said he thinks the rink would appeal to Northwestern students as well, especially dur-ing weeks when they have a lot of exams.

“College kids need an outlet to get stress out,” he said, “And we could have college night, when college kids can come and roller skate and exercise.”

Jonathan Perman, executive director of the Evanston Chamber of Commerce, said a busi-ness like the one Barfield is proposing would not take root overnight.

“Sporting and athletic facilities take up a lot of room,” Perman said. “It’s just the nature of the business he wishes to start.”

Barfield estimated he will need 25,000 square feet of space to open the rink.

Finding a space of this size has proved a challenge. One location on Dempster Street and Dodge Avenue fell through because its zoning agreement does not allow buildings like roller rinks.

Barfield is currently assessing a space on Oakton Street and McCormick Boulevard, about three miles from the NU campus. Bar-

field said he hopes to secure a location by the start of 2010, which could require a great deal of fundraising.

“It could cost a million dollars, but I think a million in donations and funds could make it happen,” he said.

So far, Barfield said the response from both residents and local government has been “overwhelmingly positive.”

However, his idea has not been accepted by everyone.

Michael North, an Evanston resident and NU library employee, said he would probably not frequent an Evanston roller rink.

“I could see how it might generate interest, though,” he said.

Sinan Atac, a Weinberg senior, had never vis-ited a roller rink but said he might be interested.

“I might go once to see what it’s like,” he said. Still, Barfield remains hopeful that his idea

will garner public support. “I see Evanston as a family community,”

he said, “So I think it can really become a family venture.”

Evanston roller rink plans develop

Student opens book on editing bizBy CamiLLE BErEdJiCk

contributing writer

An online editing business headed by a Northwestern student offers “editing with a twist.”

Weinberg senior Rachel Koontz started her online editing Web site, editZING, over the summer.

“I love talking to people about their writ-ing,” Koontzi said. “I’m such a nerd.”

Koontz started at NU as a Medill student, but transferred to Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences to become an English major with a focus on creative writing and poetry.

“I’ve been a writer all my life and I’ve done a lot of editing,” she said. “(In Medill) you learn a lot about not only storytelling, but also how to be an editor.”

The idea for editZING surfaced while Koontz was helping film and religion lecturer Sara Anson Vaux, who is also the director of the Office of Fellowships, edit a book she is working on about Clint Eastwood’s films. Koontz had taken a film class with Vaux, who she said was instantly impressed with her writing.

“Her papers during the quarter just showed that intuition about the way language works,” Vaux said. “She was able to take her brilliant insights and put them into appealing prose.”

Toward the end of Spring Quarter last year, Vaux asked Koontz to help edit the con-tent and form of her book. In addition, she asked Koontz to co-write one of the book’s five chapters.

“It’s a dynamite partnership,” Vaux said. “I want to hire her until the end of time.”

Koontz said this experience showed her that her knack for editing could be used out-side the classroom; she could help other stu-

dents hone their writing skills and earn money doing it. Instead of just editing clients’ essays for grammatical errors, Koontz wanted to be able to sit down with students face-to-face and thoroughly discuss their work.

“There are a lot of options out there for getting help with editing ...You can submit (a draft) online and get it back the next day, but you haven’t learned anything,” she said.

She designed the editZING Web site her-self using the web-hosting site Weebly. Her fi-ance, Communication senior Josh Stroud, is the artistic director of the site and designed its logo and graphics, while Koontz deter-mined the pricing for edits based on what similar services charge. However, she’s cur-rently more concerned with the site’s public-ity than its profits.

“Right now editZING is really not about the money side of it,” she said. “There needs to be a vision besides ‘How am I going to pay my bills?’”

Koontz said clients will ideally make initial contact by sending a draft to review. She looks over the writing, returns a price quote and sets up a meeting to examine the draft more closely. Meeting clients in person to review their work is what sets her practice apart from other editing services, she said.

“As a student and a writer, you get tired of getting back the paper with red pen marks you can’t even read,” she said. “It’s developing that personal experience that helps (a client) make progress.”

Koontz said her favorite project thus far has been helping edit Vaux’s book, but she also enjoys editing college applications. Koontz said she has been working on various applications for about a month with 17-year-old Sheeva Nesva, a senior at her alma mater, Granite Bay High School in California. Nesva said she learned about editZING from a jour-nalism adviser who taught Koontz in high school.

“At first I figured she’d just edit my essay,” Nesva said. “I wasn’t anticipating having her counsel me through all of my college applica-tion experience.”

Nesva said Koontz helped her with every aspect of the application process; she set up a calendar of deadlines, helped develop essay topics and edited written drafts.

“She basically acted as an adviser, not an editor — she provided a lot of support,” Nesva said. “I don’t know where I would be without her.”

I have seen the Internet’s true face. The forum boards are de-crepit septic tanks ready to burst open like the bloated belly of a

swollen corpse, releasing a deluge of verbal diarrhea and the abandoned social waste of a damned culture. The accumulated filth of all their tired memes and LOLcats will foam up around their waists, and all the trolls and /b/tards will look up and shout “Save us!”... and I’ll whisper, “No.”

This wretched face has a name, a seemingly innocuous image board known as 4chan.

When I think back on everything I’ve seen, heard, read and watched in my years of surfing the Net, I feel as weary and jaded as Han Solo when he tells Luke Skywalker he’s been from one end of galaxy to the other. Along the way, I learned of places on the Web that are best avoided like a plague ward.

For the uninitiated to grasp just how deep this cesspool of cerebral rot runs, 4chan makes the now-de-funct JuicyCampus look like a shin-ing gem of civility. 4chan is a place where compassion and reason go to die. Opinion is fact, everyone is wait-ing in line to jump at the opportunity to tell you everything you like sucks, and 99 percent of the user base is competing for the title of “most inse-cure basement dweller on the planet.” Censorship is nonexistent on 4chan and the few moderators who patrol the safe-for-work boards are about as effectual as U.S. gun law. There are things posted on 4chan one cannot un-see, but you’ll avoid the worst of it as long as you steer clear of the Web site’s most popular board, /b/.

/b/ is 4chan’s “random” board, the birthplace of nearly every Internet meme ever. LOLcats, de-motivational posters, Rickrolling and just about ev-ery Internet fad ever devised began here. Spending time on /b/ does to your IQ what chugging Everclear does to your liver. Thankfully, /b/ is not the only image board on 4chan.

The official purpose of the site is to function as a nexus for different hobbyists to talk and share links. While a few boards like /b/ have de-generated into madness thus forever condemning the site to infamy, the vast majority are (comparatively speaking) somewhat civil and shockingly helpful. The board that lured me to this wild corner of the Web, /mu/, is steadily replacing Pitchfork as my primary source of discovering new music.

There is a method to 4chan’s madness. Above the clamoring din of racial slurs, thinly veiled homopho-bic taunts and cries of “MOAR!” there are fantastic discoveries to be had. Within 4chan lays the raw, un-tempered beauty of the Internet. For every rage post or link you stumble upon, sending you to an unspeakable horror, there are 10 that will reveal something marvelous. People who keep coming back to the site for more realize sometimes staring into the abyss and battling a few mon-sters can be a worth it for “the lulz.”

Time for fresh alcohol approach

As a University with such a richly dry his-tory, Northwestern is no stranger to strin-gent standards like the Wildcat Safety Course and the three-week-long Fresh-

man Freeze. But with NU’s pressured policies, stu-dents can’t help but feel uneasy and constrained by the inflamed risk of drinking both on and off cam-pus. There is an eerie aura around NU that scares away even the notion of alcohol that isn’t secretly swigged in some basement or other sound-blocking, windowless chamber.

In effect, the present environment encourages anyone interested in drinking to move their activi-ties off campus. The situation is self-perpetuating. Afraid of the repercussions of drinking on campus, students instead opt to drink in unfamiliar environ-ments that may actually be much more unsafe than dorms. When off campus, trained CAs or even stu-dent EMTs aren’t on hand to help if students overdo it — the inebriated depend on friends to care for them. Bad choices likely ensue, hospital visits are made, students are likely disciplined and reckless behavior is pushed further to the fringe.

Simply put, NU students need constructive change that is not just codified in creative re-wording of pre-existing policies. NU should foster an environment both on and off campus that promotes both alcohol awareness and safety. Change the environment to es-tablish a new trust — the University trusts students to maintain responsible drinking and students then trust the administration to play its part in a measured way when we lose that control. Rather than simply laying down swift justice to those who oppose the order, we must reassess the relationship between students and the administration that polices them, and develop cre-ative solutions that shape communities and percep-tions rather than tighten rules.

No matter what, college students will drink irre-sponsibly. But other universities, such as University President Morton O. Schapiro’s former home at Wil-liams College, have not only allowed the consump-tion of alcohol at registered events but have also ex-tended amnesty to students in need of medical at-tention due to alcohol poisoning. While it’s foolhardy to hope Willie the Wildcat will be waiting at the gates of Ryan Field to hand you a cold one, we can a hope for a campus that acknowledges the presence of alcohol and provides the necessary atmosphere to stay safe and encourage healthy decisions.

Help ring in new president

To the average NU student, the weekend is a time to relax, party, study or do whatever you like. Schapiro’s inauguration as the 16th NU president probably isn’t at the top of

your agenda. As Schapiro himself told The Daily, at most inaugurations “you look out on the audience and you have a lot of faculty and you have a lot of staff, and you have board members and alumni and donors and friends, but you have almost no students.”

The University has pulled out all the stops to hold inauguration events that students will actually want to attend, including John Legend’s Friday night con-cert in Welsh-Ryan Arena and a “Schapiro Chal-lenge” relay race at halftime during Saturday’s foot-ball game. The inauguration ceremony itself Friday afternoon is a chance for you to get to know Schapiro and understand how he plans to lead the school. Schapiro has already made it clear through his visi-bility on campus and in Evanston that he is commit-ted to active engagement with the student body. So here’s your chance to find out how his presence will impact you.

One way or another, Schapiro wants to see you this weekend: “They’re not going to come out to hear me,” he joked. “But maybe they’ll come out to hear Friedman.”

Proposal: Coyotes would be awesome 05/02/05

Fellow citizens, I am a pizza delivery boy at a major local pizza chain and a few nights ago a homeless drunk tried to mug me. Furthermore, two of my roommates have been mugged and my car has been broken into three times in the last two months.

I would like to introduce coyotes into the lo-cal environment. When given the opportunity to be homeless here in Evanston (with coyotes) or somewhere else, I believe most homeless will gather up two dollars in change to take the El far away from here.

Also, I would like (to) point out that bunnies and squirrels here are entirely too domesticated and it bothers me that they do not flee from my presence.

Coyotes would solve this by introducing a natural predator into the environment. There is something sad about having to go out in groups at night because we are scared of being mugged. But going out in groups because we are scared of a coyote attack is just plain rad.

As a pizza delivery boy, I realize I would be most vulnerable to this new coyote threat, but it's a risk I'm willing to take. Are you?

Attendance rules not needed 11/10/87

Remember back in high school, you know, decades ago, when attendance was mandatory? Remember the common phrase, “If you have more than five unexcused absences, you will fail the class!”? Well, believe it or not, here at Northwestern, I feel like I’m back in high school.

The attendance policy in many classes is ab-

surd. “If you miss more than three classes you won’t pass the class,” is something many stu-dents hear from their professors. I came to NU to escape the monotony of high school policies. NU is a private school, where students pay big bucks for an education. Students are here be-cause they want to be, not because it is forced on them. We’re here because we are old enough to make decisions for ourselves. If they don’t go to class, they are not only wasting their educa-tion, but also their money. And besides, the more you go to class, the better chance you have of doing well.

Attendance should not be a factor in a stu-dent’s grade. If he or she misses every class, but does the work and gets an A on the midterm and final, then the student knows the material and should receive an A in the class. The only question I have about this policy at NU is WHY?

Don’t knock the Rock 10/04/74

This letter is addressed primarily to those members of fraternities and sororities who an-ticipate painting “the Rock” sometime this year.

I would like to express my hope that those people that paint the rock will henceforth con-fine their displays of house loyalty to the Rock and refrain from slapping their colors and signs on the rest of the surrounding area.

House loyalty is great, but when people paint the sidewalk too, they seem to keep branching out in search of still more unmarked concrete.

Painting the Rock is a fun tradition but last year’s enthusiastic excesses have left the area an eyesore.

federal and state rules and regulations.“We’re not a separate entity,” he said. “Even

if we wanted to set our own laws, we just can’t.”Schapiro was previously president of Wil-

liams College in Williamstown, Mass. The president’s house was in the center of campus, where he said he heard students’ night time activities regularly.

Christophe Dorsey, a senior at Williams, said the school is looser in its alcohol policies.

“Open drinking is more the rule,” he said. “Any given common room will have people sitting around with beers.”

Dorsey said security will break up a party if a noise complaint is made, but that it rarely issues infractions to students. It takes three alcohol-related infractions for these offenses to go on students’ permanent records.

Williams allows students over 21 to register parties on campus, Dorsey said. Security taps

the keg and students over 21 are issued colored bracelets. During his freshman year, Dorsey said he had a collection of colored bracelets in his room, and a friend would call to tell him which color bracelet they were using that night.

“If you really want to get around it, you can get around it,” he said.

Still, Dorsey said he thinks Schapiro will not likely change NU’s alcohol policies.

Carleton College, a small liberal arts school in Minnesota with a relatively flexible policy, hosts what may be one of longest and largest drinking events in the country — a celebration so significant it merits a mention on the col-lege’s official Web site.

Rotblatt, named after baseball player Marv Rotblatt, is a student-organized game of softball held at the end of the school year. The number of innings played corresponds to the total number of years since the college was founded in 1866.

Players carry around a cup with a bever-

age, which almost always is beer, said Carle-ton senior Jordan Narvey. He said many stu-dents arrive at the field at 4 a.m., where kegs are lined up for students.

Eric Sieger, Carleton spokesman, said stu-dents must be of drinking age to drink beer during the game. Narvey said he’s never seen administrators at Rotblatt, though they likely are aware of the behavior.

“I think because the school allows (open drinking), it’s more casual,” Narvey said. “If you give the students the respect and the freedom to drink as they want, as long as it’s safe, bad things are less likely to happen.”

Other schools, like Duke University, take a more stringent approach toward isolating un-derage would-be drinkers. Duke’s residential housing is split into east and west campuses. On the university’s east campus, where only freshmen live, alcohol is strictly forbidden. But on the west campus, where upperclass-men live, alcohol consumption is out in the

open, said Duke junior Trevor Reid.“Generally, if you look like you’re in con-

trol, if a police officer sees you they won’t re-ally stop you,” Reid said.

Back at NU, Schapiro said it’s harder to control drinking than at other schools be-cause much of the drinking is done off cam-pus. Unlike Williams, which housed most of its students on campus, NU upperclassmen often choose to live in off-campus housing. Administrators and University Police must, as a result, be concerned with on-campus in-fractions as well as with happenings off Uni-versity property.

Schapiro stressed that he will not ignore the issue.

“My job as president of Northwestern is to try to make it as safe as we possibly can,” he said. “We’ve been dealing with that for a long time and we’ll continue to deal with it.”

Albright: Obama’s a “daredevil in a circus”

Williams, Duke allow more leniency with alcohol

they could expect me to be gentle. But, if I wore a spider or a wasp, they had a fair warn-ing to watch out.”

Jewelry is also representative of Albright’s career and accomplishments. In 1997, Albright became the first female Secretary of State, a position she filled during President Bill Clin-ton’s second term. Prior to that, Albright served as the U.S. envoy to the United Nations.

Though she now serves as chairwoman of the global strategy firm Albright Stonebridge Group and chairwoman of investment advi-sory firm Albright Capital Management LLC, Albright took time to discuss the challenges facing the current administration.

“It’s true that every new American presi-dent inherits headaches, but Mr. Obama has inherited the whole emergency room,” she

said. “Decision makers are struggling to man-age problems that they’re not in a position im-mediately to solve. In this environment it’s impossible for any single country, let alone any one leader, simply to impose his will. This leaves President Obama with his hands full both domestically and overseas.”

Though she said it is too early to evaluate Obama’s legacy, Albright said the president’s speaking skills, strong national security team, energy and calm demeanor have helped im-prove U.S. relations with other countries. The coming months, she said, will be a “critical maturing phase” for his administration.

“Like a daredevil in a circus, Mr. Obama is trying to make forward progress without tip-ping too far in one direction or another,” she said. “This reflects not so much ideology but a clear view of reality. There are dangers on ev-ery side, so the watchword of the moment is

balance.” Audience members also asked for Al-

bright’s insight on various current events. During the question-and-answer session, Al-bright emphasized the need to pursue diplo-matic relations with countries like North Ko-rea and Iran, promote political roles for women and for the U.S. to “go back to being a

country of law” following the aftermath of events in Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib prison.

“She is very clever,” said Michael Vit, chief public health officer with the Ministry of Health of the Czech Republic. “It’s very inter-esting to know the differences between dif-ferent countries, how negotiations are like be-tween the U.S. and North Korean or between U.S. and Russia.”

Fellow audience member Shepali Katira, said she enjoyed hearing the perspective of a someone who “broke a lot of barriers.”

“She wasn’t afraid to dress like a woman, to wear jewelry and in a twist, to use a very feminine item as a diplomatic model,” the Chicago physician said. “She still has a good pulse on current affairs.”

ture helped his transition to college in bal-ancing both baseball and football practice schedules. Quentin appreciated his older brother’s help both on and off the field.

“It helped me get acclimated and every-thing,” he said. “As far as football goes, he was an easy outlet, at least at first when I didn’t know many guys.”

The type of chemistry that allows the Wil-liamses to mesh and excel together wasn’t made overnight. It was created over years of playing together and trying to out-perform the other on the gridiron.

Quentin played up at his brother’s age level throughout grade school, teaming up with Nate at Pittsburgh Central Catholic High School. The brothers led the school to the Pennsylvania state championship in the 2004-2005 season.

“One of our guys got hurt, so (Quentin) was a freshman coming in playing on a top 10 team

in the country,” Nate said. “So we had a good time with that and played some great football.”

The Wil l iamses haven’t just helped bui ld team chemist r y — t hey ’ve a lso helped the team on the field. Nate has col-lected 26 tackles, two-and-a-half of which went for a loss. He was crucial in leading the team to the Alamo Bowl by manning the middle of NU’s linebacking crew after Malcolm Arrington went down with a torn ACL. Quentin has compiled five tackles and an interception this year.

The presence of both the Williamses and Nagels has promoted Fitzgerald’s idea of togetherness, which he considers essen-tial in both celebrating victory and moving on from defeat.

That’s why Fitzgerald doesn’t call the Cats a football team; he calls them a foot-ball family. And building a family is easier when the team has two sets of brothers.

“I want to run the ball, and I want to finish blocks,” Fitzgerald said. “I don’t care who plays. ... They make me play with five guys up there, so we’ll find the right five. Until we find the right five, you’ll see dif-ferent combinations out there.”

This weekend might be a good time for the line to get back on track. The Red-Hawks have given up 4.7 yards per carry, allowed 12 rushing touchdowns and re-corded just four sacks this season.

SIMMONS BACK IN ACTIONAlthough the offensive line is struggling,

NU’s ground attack figures to get a boost this weekend with the return of Stephen Simmons. The junior started the Cats’ first two games, scoring two touchdowns and

rushing for 150 yards on 31 carries, but he has not played since.

Now that his ankle has finally healed, Simmons is practicing with the first team and relishing every minute of it.

“It ’s wonderful,” he said. “After three weeks of not playing, I just couldn’t wait to get back.”

Simmons was not the only running back to come back from an injury this week. Sophomore Scott Concannon missed last Saturday with a concussion, though he fig-ures to be ready to play against Miami.

Now the Cats have more f lexibility in the backfield than they have had since the beginning of the season.

“Early in the year, we were able to have a fresh tailback almost every rep,” Fitzger-ald said. “It makes a difference, it really does.”

The only three running backs who dressed at Ross-Ade Stadium were true freshman Arby Fields and sophomores Ja-cob Schmidt and Jeravin Matthews. Fields and Schmidt combined to rush for 45 yards.

NEW COACH, NO PROBLEMFor the fifth time in its first six games,

NU faces a team led by a new coach. Mike Haywood, previously the offensive coordi-nator at Notre Dame, was hired to replace Shane Montgomery at Miami this past off-season. In Montgomery’s four-year tenure, the RedHawks compiled a 17-31 record and played in two Mid-American Conference title games.

Haywood is still searching for his first win. The Cats were the victims of rookie Syracuse coach Doug Marrone’s first vic-tory, though they are 3-1 against first-year

bosses this season.But even Minnesota, the one team without

a first-year coach, had implemented different schemes on both sides of the ball.

“It was a breath of fresh air to play Min-nesota, who we thought we knew a little bit about, and they changed coordinators,” Fitzgerald said.

The turnover at the top has presented a few complications, like making it more dif-ficult to prepare since less video is avail-able. So far, Fitzgerald has been pleased with how his players and staff have dealt with the situation.

“It’s a challenge, it definitely is,” Fitzger-ald said. “You’re chasing some ghosts at times, and you have to do a lot of adjusting throughout the course of the game.”

By no means was Mike Mussina a member of the Mudville Nine, but for a pitcher as tal-ented as any to take the mound during the 1990s and 2000s, he had many close-but-no-cigar moments.

Mussina has never been in the graces of fate, who has a funny way of picking who she wants to be in the right place at the right time.

There are some upon whom fate dons this gift, a la Mr. November, Derek Jeter. There are some who are transformed in an instant from scrub to legend. For the first 26 years of his life, Russell Earl O’Dey was unknown. After his improbable three-run homer helped the Yankees edge out the Red Sox for the 1978 division title, he was immortalized in Boston as Bucky “F’ing” Dent.

Then there are those who fate teases, the players who have all the gifts in the world and seem to be on their way to glory, only to look back and see how often they were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Let the story of Mussina begin.

He debuted as a late call-up in 1991 for an Orioles team that ended the year 24 games out of first place. It was a waste of a 4-5, 2.87 ERA beginning for Mussina, who would have run away with the Rookie of the Year award the following season — he went 18-5 with a 2.54 ERA — had he not surpassed the mini-mum innings limit in ’91.

From 1996-2000, the Yankees won four championships in five years. Mussina cashed in by signing with New York in 2001, but missed the boat. Out were the soft-spoken workmen that were a signature of the ’90s Yankees dynasty, and in were a group of indi-vidual stars unfamiliar with winning. What seemed to be a more talented extension of the cohesive dynasty turned out to be a squad as organic as McNuggets.

The Yankees lost on a walk-off single in game seven of the World Series that year, marking the end of an era for the team and the beginning of an era of for Mussina, who would reach the playoffs eight out of the next nine seasons, including a second shot at the World Series in 2003, but would head home each October without a cham-pionship ring.

The span of Mussina’s career can itself be said to have occurred at the wrong place and during the wrong time. Mussina won 270 games against the deepest, most formidable

hitting lineups in baseball history. In addition to facing steroid-abusing sluggers, Mussina pitched in the AL East for the better part of two decades. It was a division composed of offensive juggernauts and pitchers’ graveyards year after year. We do not have to bend space-time to figure Mussina would be closer to pitching’s Holy Grail of 300 wins had he spent a few years facing weaker opponents in the National League; think Randy Johnson.

There is no quicker way to achieve pitch-ing immortality than to throw a perfect game. While few have done it , some of these few had rather unremarkable careers. Don Larsen remains the only pitcher to ever throw a perfect game in postseason history. He also lost 21 games in a season. Mussina was within one strike of being only the 16th pitcher to achieve perfection, be-fore a single by Red Sox pinch-hitter Carl Everett left a smudge in the box score.

In terms of awards and milestones, Muss-ina comes up short. He didn’t win 20 games, the benchmark for single-season success, un-til last year. However, it would only be fitting for Mussina that in his best year with the Yan-kees — his final year — it would also be the first time in 14 years that the team would not reach the playoffs.

While it seems Mussina has been victim-ized by fate, retiring was a decision left in his

own hands, one that clearly was made at the wrong time. Finishing on a high note came at an unprecedented cost to Mussina. Almost a month after Mussina announced his retire-ment, the Yankees began a $480 million spending spree in reaction to their less-than-stellar season. The expenditure eclipsed the memory of the mediocre pitching staff Muss-ina carried to a near-playoff berth. Were he to hold on just one more season, Mussina would be in the middle of a fearsome rotation and pitching this week with his best shot at a World Series ring in six years.

For baseball junkies, Mussina leads a water cooler-chat category: The Greatest “Non-Great” Players of All-Time. While this category heading is amusing, he does have a legitimate shot at being a part of a more serious class. Baseball writers can right the wrongs of fate by inducting Muss-ina into the Hall of Fame. Considering he pitched excellently in a five-man rotation, against the most prodigious hitters and with the smallest strike-zone ever imple-mented, his performance speaks volumes.

For the man who came so close so often, give Mussina a plaque in Cooperstown and let him light up a stogie in celebration.

defensive side of the ball, trying to hold off the Huskies’ high-powered offense.

“We got the goal that we needed,” he said. “What you kind of do is try and make the other team do something great to beat you, and we were able to hold them off.”

For senior keeper Misha Rosenthal, the win marked his second game back in goal af-ter missing two due to injury. Rosenthal made

six saves, five of which came in the second half, to nab his school-record 26th shutout.

Though the Huskies finished with a 15-11 shot advantage, Rosenthal was positive about the team’s defensive efforts.

“Our defense was absolutely phenome-nal,” he said. “I’m really, really proud. They all did a great job just being warriors in there. Our back boys really did a good job.”

The goalie described Northern Illinois as a big and physical team, so NU coun-

tered with a keep-away gameplan. Lenahan said he felt the Cats did a good job of stay-ing in front of the Huskies and making them shoot from a distance.

“Even though they had more shots, we definitely had more scoring chances,” he said.

And NU’s strong defense isn’t going unno-ticed. Earlier this week, Rosenthal was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week and was added to Top Drawer Soccer’s National Team of the Week after recording seven saves

in a 1-0 victory over No. 15 Ohio State.The team-appointed MVP has no doubt

that the Cats can keep up their winning ways in their third game of the week Sun-day against Penn State.

“This is a really tough week for us,” Eliason said. “We’ve got three away games against tough opponents. It ’s important that we started out 2-0.”

On the bus back from DeKalb to Evan-ston, Northwestern voted unanimously: It was all Eli.

Junior forward Matt Eliason began to descr ibe the ef for ts of his teammates against Northern Illinois, but the Wildcats wouldn’t let him finish. To them, the an-swer was simple — Eli turned in the team’s best performance.

The 21st-ranked Cats held t he Husk ies scoreless in their third-straight 1-0 win Wednesday, on t he road. The v ictory extended the Cats ’ unbeaten st rea k to eight games.

One minute into the sec-ond half, the Cats (6-1-3) earned a free kick on a Northern Illinois foul just outside the box. Senior defender Mark Blades crossed the ball from the right and found Eliason, who headed the ball into the back of the net for his ninth goal of the season.

“We wanted to come out with a lot of energy and get the win however we could,” Eliason said.

Despite playing a mid-week afternoon game with a higher potential for a let-down, NU did just that.

“You can’t play every game with the ul-timate emotion,” coach Tim Lenahan said. “Somet imes you just have to be good enough to beat the other team.”

After a full day of classes and an hour-and-a-half bus ride across the state, the Cats came out flat in the first half. But they quickly re-sponded after intermission, scoring 46 sec-onds in . Then NU shifted its mentality to the

For coach Pat Fitzgerald , a football squad is made up of 105 teammates who become brothers over the course of a sea-son. If that’s the case, Quentin and Nate Williams and Aaron and Brett Nagel will always have a head start.

Following Quentin’s arrival in 2008, the Williamses became the first Wildcats brother tandem since Brian and Scott Musso played to-gether in 1997. As for the Nagels, Brett transferred to Northwestern af ter

the 2007 season, joining his younger brother Aaron in Evanston.

“I didn’t have any brothers, so I think it would be an unbelievable experience,” Fitzgerald said. “To be able to do some-thing together like that is pretty special and significant.”

But it almost didn't happen for both pa irs of s ibl ings. A aron, a 6 -foot-1 , 225-pound linebacker, init ial ly signed with Notre Dame and played one year un-der Charlie Weis. After taking a redshirt during the 2007 season, he decided to transfer to NU. His choice came only months after Brett, a 6-foot-4, 220-pound superback, committed to the Cats.

The story for the Williams brothers is similar, but in reverse. Nate was already part of Fitzgerald’s defense when Quentin was narrowing down prospective schools. Quentin, a 6-foot-4, 240-pound defensive end, finally made the decision to come to NU, one that older brother Nate didn’t leave to chance.

“He was committed to Stanford, so I had to kind of squeeze him out of that,” Nate said. “I got in his ear a little bit.”

Fitzgerald is especially pleased that both duos made it to Evanston, explain-ing the benefits of having family mem-bers on the roster. Although their role is downplayed by players, family bonds within a football team can enhance the

athletic experience. “Sometimes you take that for granted,

especially when you’re 17 to 23 years old,” Fitzgerald said. “You grow up together, you live together and you want to be your own guy, but you can still be your own guy. It’s your own experience.”

Still, the Williams brothers don’t look past the advantages playing with each

other has presented. Nate not only influ-enced Quentin in his college decision but also looked out for him once he arrived on campus.

This was especially helpful for Quen-tin, who also plays baseball for Paul Ste-vens’ club in the spring. This added struc-

Following Northwestern’s third consec-utive game with an ineffective running at-tack, coach Pat Fitzgerald was clearly un-happy with the play of his offensive line. He has been mixing and matching linemen all week in practice, seeing which group would perform well enough to take the field against Miami (OH) on Saturday.

“(The competition is) ongoing, daily,” Fitzger-ald said. “It will be ongo-ing tomorrow, it will be ongoing Saturday, it will be ongoing for the rest of the year.”

The offensive line was considered one of the Wildcats’ strengths entering the season, but so far it is not performing like one. Quarterback Mike Kaf ka has been sacked 11 times in his last three games, and NU did not rush for 100 yards in any of those contests.

Against Purdue, the Cats started A l Netter at left tackle, Desmond Taylor at left guard, Ben Burkett at center, Doug Bartels at right guard and Kurt Mattes at right tackle.

But there is no guarantee any of those play-ers will be in those spots come Saturday.

After Northwestern’s offensive line struggled to run the ball and surrendered 11 sacks over the last three weeks, coach Pat Fitzgerald said he wasn’t pleased with the unit’s performance. As a result, he rotated linemen throughout the week at practice, looking to find a perfect combination for this weekend’s contest with Miami (OH). Kurt Mattes (78) has started every game this year at right tackle for the Cats. See NOTEBOOK, page 9
